5. Payment of Amounts Due Borrower under the Agreement.
A. Prior to notice by JMB to Borrower, 245 and O & Y Equity of an event
which is a Default, or which, but for the passage of any applicable grace
period, would be a Default, by Borrower hereunder, Borrower agrees to pay
immediately and in full to JMB (to reduce the indebtedness on the Restated
Promissory Notes and the JMB Note), and after such notice, the Borrower
hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs 245, to pay all proceeds now due
or hereafter to become due to the Borrower in respect of 245 and/or the 245
Properties, whether derived from any financing or refinancing of the 245
Properties prior to the maturity date of the Restated Promissory Notes and
the JMB Note, or from any distributions to the partners under the Agreement
either of capital or cash flow, or otherwise, into an account which JMB
shall designate for the benefit of JMB only. If Borrower cures a default
of which JMB has given Borrower notice before such default constitutes a
Default hereunder, then Borrower's authorization and direction to 245, to
make payments directly to JMB shall lapse and be of no further force and
effect with respect to such default; provided, however, that 245 may
continue to make payments directly to JMB until JMB shall have given 245
and O & Y Equity further notice hereunder (JMB agreeing promptly to notify
245 and O & Y Equity in the event that 245 shall no longer be required to
make payments directly to JMB hereunder). All such amounts received by
JMB, either from the Borrower or 245, shall be applied to the Liabilities
in the manner set forth in the Restated Promissory Notes and the JMB Note.
B. For so long as Borrower is making such payments, the proceeds
now due or hereafter to become due to the Borrower in respect of 245 and/or
245 Properties may be net of normal operating costs of Borrower, including
attorney's fees and accountant's fees and reimbursements for other services
rendered to the Borrower by third parties.
6. Indemnification. The Borrower will indemnify and save harmless
JMB from and against all claims, liabilities and expenses on account of any
liability, adverse claim, loss or expense asserted against JMB under or by
reason of this Assignment or as a result of any payments received by JMB
from any obligor on any Collateral or otherwise as proceeds of any
Collateral, except for matters resulting from a) the gross negligence or
intentional misconduct of JMB in exercising any of its remedies hereunder
or in performing any of its duties and obligations hereunder, or b) matters
relating to any period after such time as JMB (or any third party acquiring
the Collateral pursuant to JMB's exercise of its remedies) may have fully
succeeded to all of Borrower's right, title and interest in and to the
Collateral as a result of its exercise of its remedies hereunder or
otherwise. Such obligation of the Borrower shall continue in effect after
and notwithstanding the discharge of the Liabilities and the release hereof
or the succession by JMB (or any third party acquiring the Collateral
pursuant to JMB's exercise of its remedies) to Borrower's right, title and
interest in and to the Collateral.
7. Default. Whenever a Default shall be existing, JMB may
exercise any rights and remedies available to it under the Restated
Promissory Notes or any other Loan Document (including, without limitation,
acceleration of the Liabilities), or under applicable law. In addition,
JMB shall have all rights and remedies of a secured party under the Uniform
Commercial Code of Illinois (regardless of whether such law or a similar
law is in effect in the jurisdiction where such rights and remedies are
asserted). Without limiting the foregoing, upon Default JMB may, to the
fullest extent permitted by applicable law, without notice, advertisement,
hearing or process of law of any kind, sell any or all of the Collateral,
free of all rights and claims of the Borrower therein and thereto, at any
public or private sale, and bid for and purchase any or all of the
Collateral at any such sale. In connection with any sale of the Collateral
made by JMB or any other party pursuant to or in accordance with or by
reason of this Assignment, JMB or said other party shall have the right,
free of any right of redemption of the Borrower (which Borrower hereby
waives), to execute and deliver an assignment of the Collateral to any
purchaser at such sale. The Borrower hereby expressly waives, to the
fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any and all notices,
advertisements, hearings or process of law in connection with the exercise
by JMB of any of its rights and remedies upon Default. If any notification
of intended disposition of any of the Collateral is required by law, such
notification, if mailed, shall be deemed reasonably and properly given if
mailed at least thirty (30) days before such disposition, postage prepaid,
addressed to the Borrower either at the address shown above, or such other
address of the Borrower within the State of Illinois as the Borrower may
indicate to JMB by a written notice complying with Section 10 hereof. All
costs and expenses of any kind whatsoever, of collection and enforcement of
the Liabilities or any rights or remedies hereunder (including, without
limitation, all costs of disposing of the Collateral, together with court
costs and reasonable attorneys' fees), or incurred in realizing upon the
Collateral or in enforcing this Assignment, shall be paid by the Borrower,
shall be deemed to be additional Liabilities secured hereby. Any proceeds
of any of the Collateral may be applied by JMB to the payment of expenses
in connection with the Collateral, including reasonable attorneys' fees and
legal expenses, and any balance of such proceeds shall be applied by JMB
toward the payment of such of the Liabilities (including the Restated
Promissory Notes and the JMB Note), and in such order of application, as
JMB may from time to time elect, with the excess, if any, to be paid to
Borrower.
8. Performance by JMB of Borrower's Obligations. After a Default
hereunder, or an event which, but for the passage of any applicable grace
period, would be a Default hereunder, JMB may, from time to time, perform
any obligation to be performed by the Borrower (a) hereunder or (b) under
the Restated Promissory Notes or the JMB Note or any of the Loan Documents,
any other instrument or document evidencing or securing any of the
Liabilities, or (c) under the Collateral (including, without limitation,
the Agreement), which the Borrower shall fail to perform, and JMB may take
any other action which JMB deems necessary for the maintenance or
preservation of any of the Collateral or its security interest in the
Collateral, with the following limitations: (i) if Borrower's obligation to
be performed by JMB is a non-monetary obligation and does not relate to the
giving of a consent or approval, then JMB may render such performance only
after JMB has given Borrower notice of an event which is a Default, or
which, but for the passage of any applicable grace period, would be a
Default hereunder (provided that JMB's power to perform such obligation
shall cease if and at such time as Borrower cures an event which is not yet
a Default within any applicable cure period); and (ii) if the Borrower's
obligation to be performed by JMB relates to the giving of a consent or
approval, JMB may render such performance only if a Default in the nature
of the failure to perform a monetary obligation has occurred, JMB has
accelerated the Liabilities, and JMB has initiated the process of
foreclosing on the Collateral, and either (a) JMB deems such action
necessary for the maintenance or preservation of any of the Collateral or
its security interest in the Collateral, or (b) in JMB's opinion, without
any requirement of an opinion of counsel, the Borrower is legally obligated
under the Agreement to issue such consent or approval. All moneys advanced
by JMB in connection with the foregoing, together with interest at the rate
provided for after a default in the Restated Promissory Notes shall be
repaid by the Borrower to JMB, upon the latter's demand, or at such earlier
time as the Borrower may elect, and shall be secured hereby as part of the
Liabilities prior to any other obligation secured hereby, but the making of
any such advance by JMB shall not relieve the Borrower of any Default
hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in all of their dealings with
the Borrower in connection with any consents, approvals or other
obligations which are the subject of the foregoing provisions of this
Section 8, Olympia & York 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Company, L.P. and O & Y
Equity Company, L.P. (collectively with their respective successors and
assigns, the "O & Y Partners") and 245 shall be entitled to rely on the
directions of the managing general partner of Borrower until they shall
have each received notice from JMB to the contrary and, following their
receipt of such notice from JMB, the O & Y Partners and 245 shall be
entitled to rely only on JMB's directions until such time as the O & Y
Partners (or any of them) and 245 shall have received further notice from
JMB that they may once again rely on the directions of the managing general
partner of the Borrower (JMB agreeing promptly to notify 245 and the O & Y
Partners in the event that they may once again rely on the directions of
the managing general partner of Borrower pursuant to the terms of this
Section 8).
9. No Liability on JMB. Anything herein contained to the contrary
notwithstanding, this Assignment is given as collateral security only, (i)
the Borrower shall remain liable under the Agreement to perform all of its
obligations thereunder, (ii) JMB shall have no obligation or liability by
reason of or arising out of this Assignment (including actions by JMB
pursuant to Section 8 hereof), except matters resulting from JMB's gross
negligence or intentional misconduct, and (iii) until such time, if any, as
JMB (or a third party ["Third Party"] acquiring the Collateral pursuant to
JMB's exercise of its remedies hereunder or under any other of the Loan
Documents) succeeds to the Borrower's interest in the Collateral, JMB shall
have no obligation or liability under the Agreement (and then JMB or such
Third Party, as the case may be, only as to obligations and liabilities
accruing from and after such time). In addition, unless and until JMB (or
any such Third Party) succeeds to Borrower's interest in the Collateral,
neither JMB nor such Third Party shall have any obligation to make any
payment or to make any inquiry as to the nature or the sufficiency of any
payment received by it, to present or file any claim, or to take any action
to collect or enforce the payment of any amounts which have been assigned
to it or to which it may be entitled at any time or times. Under no
circumstances whatsoever will JMB (or any such Third Party) be deemed a
partner or member in 245 until such time, if any, as JMB (or such Third
Party) acquires Borrower's interest in the Collateral.
10. Miscellaneous. No remedy herein conferred is intended to be
exclusive of any other remedy, but every such remedy shall be cumulative
and shall be in addition to every other remedy herein conferred, or
conferred upon JMB by any other agreement or instrument or security, or now
or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute.
No failure or delay on the part of JMB in the exercise of any right
or remedy hereunder or under any other instrument or otherwise shall
operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of
any such right or remedy preclude other or further exercise thereof or the
exercise of any other right or remedy.
The satisfaction or discharge of any part of the Liabilities shall
not in any way satisfy or discharge this Assignment, but this Assignment
shall remain in full force and effect as long as any amount remains unpaid
or any monetary obligation remains unperformed on or with respect to any
such Liabilities.
Wherever possible, each provision of this Assignment shall be
interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable
law, but if, for any reason whatsoever, any one or more of the provisions
of this Assignment shall be held or deemed to be inoperative, unenforceable
or invalid as applied to any particular case or cases in any particular
jurisdiction or jurisdictions or in all jurisdictions or in all cases, such
circumstances shall not have the effect of rendering such provision
inoperative, unenforceable or invalid in any other jurisdiction or in any
other case or of rendering any of the other provisions of this Assignment
inoperative, unenforceable or invalid.
This Assignment shall be a contract made under and governed by the
laws of the State of Illinois.
All notices under this Assignment shall be in writing and shall have
been deemed to have been given when delivered personally or on the third
Business Day following the day when deposited in the United States mail,
postage prepaid, addressed to either party at its address set forth above,
to the attention of, in the case of JMB, H. Xxxxx Xxxxxx and, in the case
of Borrower, Xxxxxx Xxxxxx.
This Assignment shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the
parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns and, without
limiting the foregoing, all rights and powers hereunder or with respect
hereto of JMB, or any agent or representative of JMB, may be exercised by
