10. Lien. Seller, Purchaser, and Original Carveout Obligor, jointly and severally, warrant and represent to, and agree with, Lender that the Original Security Instruments, as amended by this Agreement, collectively constitute a valid first-priority lien and security title on the Property, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, except to the extent that the enforceability or any of such instruments may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting the enforceability of creditor’s rights generally, or by equitable principles of general application (whether considered in an action at law or in equity).

(g) The Deed of Trust, as amended by this Agreement, is and will remain a valid and enforceable first lien and security title on the Property.

(g) The execution and delivery of this Agreement (i) have been duly authorized pursuant to the terms of Seller’s Organizational Documents; (ii) will not violate Seller’s Organizational Documents; and (iii) will not result in any breach of or constitute a default under any court order, administrative order, indenture, mortgage, security agreement, bank loan or credit agreement or other instrument to which Seller is a party or by which Seller is bound.
(h) All information provided by Seller to AEGON USA Realty Advisors, Inc. in connection with the proposed sale of the Property from Seller to Purchaser and Purchaser’s proposed assumption of the Loan is true, correct and complete in all material respects.
14. Indemnification. Purchaser hereby agrees to defend, indemnify, and hold Lender harmless from and against any and all claims, demands, actions, or causes of action of any third party against Lender in connection with or as a result of entering into this Agreement (including, without limitation, all losses, damages, liabilities, costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, and expenses whatsoever incurred or sustained by Lender in connection therewith), except to the extent caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Lender. Without limitation of the generality of the foregoing, Purchaser agrees to defend, indemnify, and hold Lender harmless from and against any and all recording, documentary stamp, intangible and other taxes, if any, imposed upon Lender by virtue of the execution and delivery of this Agreement or any instrument or document executed in connection therewith, including, without limitation, all penalties, interest, and reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by Lender in connection therewith. It is expressly understood and agreed that the liability of Purchaser arising under this Section is not limited by any limitation on the recourse of Lender for the Loan that may be provided in the Loan Documents and that Lender shall have full recourse to all of the assets of Purchaser for the satisfaction of the obligations arising under this Section. The provisions of this Section shall survive the repayment of the Note and the indebtedness evidenced thereby, and the satisfaction of the Loan Documents, and shall continue for so long as a claim may be asserted by any third party.
15. Release of Seller and Original Carveout Obligor. Upon the complete execution and recordation of this Agreement, (a) Seller shall be deemed to have been released from (i) all obligations under the Loan with respect to the payment of principal, interest and late fees under the Loan arising after the Effective Date, and (ii) all obligations under the Loan Documents with respect to any acts or omissions occurring after the Effective Date; and (b) Original Carveout Obligor shall be deemed to have been released from all obligations under the Environmental Indemnity and the Carveout Indemnity with respect to acts or omissions occurring after the Effective Date. Nevertheless, Seller acknowledges and agrees that neither any of the transactions described in this Agreement nor any provision of this Agreement shall be construed to release Seller from any obligations under the Loan Documents which pertain to obligations, acts or omissions arising or occurring (i) prior to the Effective Date or (ii) out of circumstances or conditions existing as of the Effective Date, and Seller hereby acknowledges its continuing liability for all such obligations. Furthermore, Original Carveout Obligor acknowledges and agrees that neither any of the transactions described in this Agreement nor any provision of this Agreement shall be construed to release Original Carveout Obligor from any obligations under the Carveout Indemnity or the Environmental Indemnity which pertain to acts or omissions occurring or arising prior to the Effective Date or arising out of circumstances or conditions existing as of the Effective Date, and Original Carveout Obligor hereby acknowledges the continuing liability of Original Carveout Obligor for all such obligations.
16. No Novation. All of the “Property” described in the Deed of Trust shall remain in all respects subject to the liens, charges and encumbrances of the Deed of Trust, and no provision contained in this Agreement, and no action taken pursuant to this Agreement, is intended to affect, shall affect, or shall be construed as affecting the liens, charges or encumbrances of the Deed of Trust, or the priority thereof over any other lien, charge or encumbrance, nor shall any provision contained in this Agreement or any action taken pursuant to this Agreement affect or be construed as affecting any other security or instrument held by Lender in connection with the Loan. Accordingly, it is the intent of the parties that this instrument shall not constitute a novation, and shall in no way adversely affect the priority of the lien or security title or effect of any of the Original Security Instruments. In the event that this Agreement, or any part hereof, shall be construed by a court of competent jurisdiction as operating to affect the priority of the lien or security title of any of the Original Security Instruments over claims that would otherwise be subordinate thereto, then to the extent that third parties acquiring an interest in the Property between the time of execution and delivery of the Original Security Instruments and the execution and delivery of this Agreement are prejudiced thereby, this Agreement or such portion hereof as shall be so construed, shall be void and of no force and effect, and this Agreement shall constitute, as to that portion, a subordinate lien on the collateral incorporating by reference the terms of the Original Security Instruments, and which Original Security Instruments then shall be enforced pursuant to the terms therein contained, independent of this Agreement; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties hereto agree as between themselves that they shall be bound by all terms and conditions hereof until all indebtedness evidenced by any of the Loan Documents has been satisfied in full.
17. Ratification. Except as herein amended or concurrently released, the Original Loan Documents shall remain unaffected, unchanged, unmodified, and unimpaired, and the priority of the lien and security interest of the Original Security Instruments on the Property shall not be changed or in any way altered or affected hereby, and the Note and Original Security Instruments, as herein amended, are hereby ratified and confirmed.
18. Subordination by Seller and Original Carveout Obligor. As inducement to Lender to permit a transfer of the Property and the assumption of the Loan by Purchaser, Seller and Original Carveout Obligor, jointly and severally, hereby subordinate any and all indebtedness of Purchaser hereafter owed to Seller and/or Original Carveout Obligor to all indebtedness of Purchaser to Lender, and covenant with Lender not to demand or accept any payment of principal or interest on any such indebtedness or a return while any “Default” exists under the terms of any of the Loan Documents.
19. Miscellaneous.
