of submission in (a) above, such submission shall be deemed to be notice to
Lender of Manager's election to exercise its option rights under the Equity
Option Agreement.
(c) Within fifteen (15) Business Days after receipt of the
documentation required to be furnished under Section 2.1.2(a) (or at any earlier

Notice, then Lender shall have the right (but not the obligation), at any time
up to the ninetieth (90th) day following the Expected Conversion Date, (x) to
obtain its own appraisal of the Property at the expense of Borrower or Manager
and/or (y) to elect to give a Conversion Notice specifying as a Re-sized Amount
any amount determined by Lender that is not less than the outstanding Principal
of the Loan (except to the extent, if any, that Lender commits, in such
Conversion Notice, to provide Preferred Equity) and not greater than the maximum
amount of the Initial Loan. Any failure or delay by Lender in exercising any
rights or remedies prior to, during or after such 90-day period shall not be
deemed a waiver by Lender of any such rights or remedies. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.1.2(d) or elsewhere in this
Agreement, if either of the foregoing clauses (i) or (ii) is applicable, then it
shall be an Event of Default and Lender may exercise any and all of its remedies
under the Loan Documents.
2.1.3 Additional Loan. Lender shall disburse the Additional
Loan as directed by Manager on the Conversion Date, in the amount (if any) by
which the Re-sized Amount exceeds the then unpaid Principal of the Initial Loan;
provided the following conditions precedent are satisfied:
1
28
(a) Borrower shall execute and deliver to Lender (i)
the Additional Note and (ii) an amendment or supplement to, and/or
consolidation and modification of, the Mortgage, in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to Lender and Manager, confirming that the
Mortgage secures the Loan (as increased by the Additional Loan);
(b) Borrower shall deliver to Lender an opinion of
Borrower's counsel, in form and substance satisfactory to Lender in its
discretion, with respect to the due authorization, execution, delivery
and enforceability of the Additional Note and such amendment or
supplement to, and/or consolidation and modification of, the Mortgage
and such other matters with respect thereto as are covered with respect
to the Initial Note and the Mortgage in the opinion of Borrower's
counsel being delivered on the date hereof;
(c) Both immediately prior to the making of the
Additional Loan and also after giving effect thereto, no Default shall
have occurred and be continuing;
(d) The representations and warranties made by
Borrower and Manager in this Agreement and in the other Loan Documents
shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as of the
date of the making of the Additional Loan with the same force and
effect as if made on and as of such date;
(e) Borrower and Manager shall deliver to Lender an
Officer's Certificate confirming the satisfaction of the conditions set
forth in the foregoing clauses (c) and (d) applicable to Borrower or
Manager, as the case may be;
(f) Lender shall have received (i) a notice of title
continuation showing that since the date of the then most recent title
continuation provided to Lender under the BLA, there has been no change
in the state of title to the Property, and no survey exceptions with
respect to the Property, not theretofore approved by Lender, together
with other evidence satisfactory to Lender that no mechanic's Liens or
other Liens have been filed and remain filed with respect to the
Property which have not been insured over to Lender's satisfaction and
which will not affect the priority of the Loan, any future Advances, or
the Additional Loan and (ii) an endorsement to the Title Insurance
Policy, which endorsement shall have the effect of (x) updating the
date of the Title Insurance Policy to the date of the making of the
Additional Loan and (y) increasing the coverage of the Title Insurance
Policy by an amount equal to the Additional Loan;
(g) All fees and expenses payable to Lender,
including the fees and expenses referred to in Sections 2.6 and 10.3,
to the extent then due and payable, shall have been (or
contemporaneously are being) paid in full, and all title premiums and
other title and survey charges shall have been (or contemporaneously
are being) paid in full; and
1
29
(h) Lender shall have received such other documents
relating to the Additional Loan as Lender may reasonably request.
If any or all conditions precedent to making the Additional Loan have not been
satisfied on the Conversion Date, Lender may, at its option, waive so many of
such conditions precedent as it may elect (including the making of a request
therefor by Borrower or Manager, if Borrower or Manager has not provided Lender
the Extension Notice. To the extent Lender makes the Additional Loan, the making
of the Additional Loan shall constitute a waiver of such unsatisfied conditions,
unless otherwise set forth in a written notice from Lender to Borrower.
2.1.4 Restated Documents. (a) Borrower shall, within seven (7)
days after request of Lender, execute and deliver to Lender a restated note,
which is intended to evidence the terms of the Loan from and after the
Conversion Date. The provisions of this section shall be self operative and
Lender shall not be required to obtain any further consent or authorization of
any kind. The restated note that Borrower hereafter executes and delivers, is
referred to herein as the "Restated Note". Within thirty (30) days of Lender's
receipt of the Restated Note, Lender shall return the originals of the Initial
Note, and, if executed and delivered, the Additional Note, or in lieu thereof,
an affidavit and indemnity from Lender in form and substance reasonably
acceptable to Borrower and Manager in their sole but reasonable discretion that
such Initial Note, and, if executed and delivered, Additional Note, have been
lost.
(b) At Lender's request, Borrower shall promptly execute and
deliver an agreement restating this Agreement, which will reflect the terms of
the Restated Note and the terms and provisions hereof that are applicable after
the Conversion Date, and may omit any terms and provisions hereof that will no
longer be applicable.
2.1.5 Separate Notes. Lender shall have the right, in its sole
discretion, at any time prior to the Conversion Date, to allocate the Loan into
two or more separate promissory notes, which may have different principal
amounts, different interest rates and different priorities with respect to
repayment; provided, however, that in all events (i) the aggregate principal
amount of such separate promissory notes shall be equal to the aggregate unpaid
Principal, (ii) the blended interest rate derived from such different interest
rates on such separate promissory notes shall reflect the same economic terms as
the economic terms of the Loan immediately preceding such allocation, and (iii)
such separate promissory notes shall have no adverse economic effect on Borrower
and Manager. Borrower shall execute and deliver to Lender, promptly after the
request of Lender, such separate promissory notes and such other documents as
Lender shall reasonably request to effect such allocation, in form reasonably
satisfactory to Lender.
2.1.6 Expected Conversion Date Extension. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, (a) Manager shall have the unilateral
right to extend the Original Expected Conversion Date to a date which is no
later than ten (10) months following the Original Expected Conversion Date (the
"Expected Conversion Date Extension") by timely
1
30
submitting the Extension Notice to Lender. Lender shall approve or disapprove
the Expected Conversion Date Extension within ten (10) Business Days of
receiving the Extension Notice and all the required documentation. Lender shall
allow the extension of the Original Expected Conversion Date to the Extended
Expected Conversion Date, provided that as of the date of the Extension Notice
(i) no Event of Default is outstanding, (ii) the Debt Service Coverage Ratio of
the Loan, based on an annualized, seasonably adjusted, trailing six (6) months
computation, is equal to or greater than 1.2 to 1, (iii) the Loan then sizes to
at least the original principal amount of the Initial Loan, and (iv) Lender
incurs no costs or fees in connection with extending the Original Expected
Conversion Date, including no Breakage Fees. If Lender determines that the
conditions specified in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) have not been satisfied or
that Manager has not made adequate provision to reimburse Lender for all costs
specified in clause (iv), Lender shall have no obligation to extend the Original
Expected Conversion Date and shall give notice of same to Borrower and Manager.
If Lender permits the Expected Conversion Date Extension, Manager must pay the
Extension Fee to Lender no later than five (5) Business Days after the Extension
Confirmation Date. If Manager fails to pay the Extension Fee as required, then
Lender may revoke its permission granting the extension and the Conversion Date
shall revert back to the Original Expected Conversion Date.
(b) If Lender allows the Expected Conversion Date Extension,
Lender may require that appropriate rate lock protection is provided for the
Loan with respect to the period extending from the Original Expected Conversion
Date until the Extended Expected Conversion Date. In such event, (i) Manager
shall have the election to either terminate the then existing Rate Lock
Agreement and enter into a new Rate Lock Agreement in Lender's then standard
form (the "New Rate Lock Agreement") or modify the existing Rate Lock Agreement
(the "Modified Rate Lock Agreement"), all on such terms and conditions as are
satisfactory to Lender and subject to Manager's obligation to pay any Breakage
Fees or other transactional costs incurred in connection therewith, and (ii)
Manager shall cause Guarantor to execute and deliver to Lender a guaranty of
Manager's obligations under any New Rate Lock Agreement or Modified Rate Lock
Agreement, in Lender's then standard form.
2.2 Interest; Monthly Payments.
2.2.1 Generally. (a) From the date hereof to but not including
the Optional Prepayment Date, Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid
Principal and all other amounts due to Lender under the Loan Documents at the
Interest Rate. From and after the Optional Prepayment Date, interest on the
unpaid Principal and all other amounts due to Lender under the Loan Documents
shall accrue at the Revised Interest Rate and be payable as provided in Sections
2.2.2 and 2.2.3(b).
(b) On July 11, 1998 and each Payment Date thereafter in the
period ending on the Conversion Date, if there are insufficient funds in the
Deposit Account for Lender to pay itself interest in accordance with this
Agreement or the BLA, Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid Principal
accrued at the Interest Rate during the Interest Period immediately preceding
such Payment Date.
1
31
(c) On the first Payment Date after the Conversion Date and
each Payment Date thereafter through and including the Maturity Date, the
Principal and interest thereon at the Interest Rate shall be payable in equal
monthly installments each in the amount (the "Monthly Debt Service Payment
Amount"), determined by Lender in accordance with the provisions of this
Agreement, required to fully amortize the Principal by the Stated Maturity Date,
based on the Interest Rate and the Amortization Schedule. The Monthly Debt
Service Payment Amount due on any Payment Date shall first be applied to the
payment of interest accrued from the eleventh (11th) day of the month preceding
the Payment Date through the tenth (10th) day of the month in which the Payment
Date occurs, notwithstanding that the Payment Date may not have been the
eleventh (11th) day of such month because the eleventh (11th) day of such month
is not a Business Day. The remainder of such Monthly Debt Service Payment Amount
shall be applied to the reduction of the unpaid Principal.
2.2.2 Accrued Interest. From and after the Optional Prepayment
Date, all interest shall accrue in respect of the Debt at the Revised Interest
Rate ("Accrued Interest"). To the extent, for any period, that Accrued Interest
at the Revised Interest Rate exceeds interest required to be paid hereunder for
such period at the Interest Rate, Borrower shall only be required to pay such
Accrued Interest after the outstanding principal balance of the Note has been
paid in full. Unpaid Accrued Interest shall accrue interest at the Revised
Interest Rate.
All Accrued Interest shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date.
2.2.3 Property Cash Flow Allocation. (a) Commencing on the
Substantial Completion Date and continuing on each Payment Date thereafter
through and including the Conversion Date, except during the continuance of an
Event of Default, any Rents deposited into the Deposit Account or received by
Borrower or Manager during the immediately preceding Interest Period shall be
applied as follows in the following order of priority: (i) First, to pay any and
all ground rents, if any, (ii) Second, to make required payments (if any) to the
Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund; (iii) Third, to Lender to pay the interest due on
such Payment Date (including, if applicable, interest at the Default Rate); (iv)
Fourth, to make payments for Approved Operating Expenses; (v) Fifth, to make
required payments (if any) to the Capital Reserve Fund; and (vi) Lastly,
payments of any excess amounts to the Cash Collateral Subaccount.
(b) Commencing on the first Payment Date after the Conversion
Date and continuing on each Payment Date thereafter through and including the
Optional Prepayment Date, except during the continuance of an Event of Default,
any Rents received by Borrower or Manager (and, during a Cash Management Period,
Rents deposited into the Deposit Account) during the immediately preceding
Interest Period shall be applied as follows in the following order of priority:
(i) First, to pay any and all ground rents, if any; (ii) Second, to make
required payments to the Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund; (iii) Third, to Lender
to pay the Monthly Debt Service Payment Amount (plus, if applicable, interest at
the Default Rate); (iv) Fourth, to make required payments to the Capital Reserve
Fund; (v) Fifth, during a Cash Management Period, payments for Approved
Operating Expenses; (vi) Sixth, during a Cash Management Period, to make
required payments for any working capital reserves in accordance with the Annual
Budget
1
32
to the Working Capital Subaccount; and (vii) Lastly, payments to Manager of
any excess amounts.
(c) Commencing on the first Payment Date after the Optional
Prepayment Date and continuing on each Payment Date thereafter until the entire
Debt has been paid in full, except during the continuance of an Event of
Default, any Rents deposited into the Deposit Account (or otherwise received by
Borrower or Manager) during the immediately preceding Interest Period shall be
applied by Lender as follows in the following order of priority: (i) First, to
pay any and all ground rents, if any; (ii) Second, to make required payments to
the Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund; (iii) Third, to Lender to pay the Monthly
Debt Service Payment Amount (plus, if applicable, interest at the Default Rate);
(iv) Fourth, to make required payments to the Capital Reserve Fund; (v) Fifth,
payments for Approved Operating Expenses; (vi) Sixth, payments to Lender to
prepay the unpaid Principal until paid in full; (vii) Seventh, payments to
Lender to be applied against Accrued Interest and interest accrued thereon; and
(viii) Lastly, payments to Manager of any excess amounts.
(d) The failure of Borrower or Manager to make all of the
payments required under clauses (i) through (vi) of Section 2.2.3(a), or clauses
(i) through (v) of Section 2.2.3(b), or clause (i) through (v) of Section
2.2.3(c), in full on each Payment Date shall constitute a Default under this
Agreement. However, the failure of Borrower to prepay any unpaid Principal or to
pay any Accrued Interest under clause (vi) or (vii) of Section 2.2.3(c) on a
Payment Date as a result of insufficient Rents for such payment shall not
constitute a Default hereunder. All Accrued Interest, unpaid Principal, and all
other amounts due to Lender under the Loan Documents shall nonetheless be due
and payable on the Maturity Date.
(e) During the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender may,
in its discretion, permit the application of Rents in the order of priority set
forth in Section 2.2.3(b) or any other order, and to any portion or portions of
the Debt, as Lender shall determine.
2.2.4 Default Rate. Upon an Event of Default and during the
continuance thereof, the entire unpaid Principal shall bear interest at the
Default Rate, and shall be payable upon demand from time to time, to the extent
permitted by applicable law. Payment or acceptance of interest at the Default
Rate is not a permitted alternative to timely payment and shall not constitute a
waiver of any Default or Event of Default or an amendment to this Agreement or
any other Loan Document and shall not otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or
remedies of Lender.
2.2.5 Rate Adjustment. At Lender's election, which may be made
at any time on or before the Conversion Date by notice to and reasonable consent
of Manager, which consent must be made within five (5) days of receipt of
Lender's notice by Manager, otherwise it shall have been deemed to have been
made, the Interest Rate for the period from and after the Conversion Date to but
not including the Optional Prepayment Date shall be changed to a rate per annum
(the "Alternative Rate") determined by Lender in its reasonable discretion in
accordance with this Agreement. If Lender so elects to make such change in the
Interest Rate
1
33
(the "Rate Adjustment"), and Manager consents to such election or is deemed to
have approved such election as set forth above, then, on the Conversion Date
(after giving effect to Sections 2.1.3 and 2.3.2(b)):
(i) Lender shall pay to Borrower a premium (the
"Premium") in an amount equal to the amount by which
the unpaid Principal exceeds the Alternative
Principal (as defined below); and
(ii) Borrower shall apply the Premium, and hereby
irrevocably directs Lender to retain the Premium for
application, to the prepayment of Principal in the
amount of the Premium.
The "Alternative Principal" shall be the amount which, based on the Alternative
Amortization Schedule and the Alternative Rate, results in the same Monthly Debt
Service Payment Amount and Effective Balloon Amount that would have been
applicable without a Rate Adjustment. If, after a Rate Adjustment is made, the
Loan is prepaid in whole or in part prior to the Optional Prepayment Date in
circumstances where, pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Loan Documents
(such as, for example, Section 7.4.2 hereof in certain events) no Yield
Maintenance Premium is due, then Borrower shall nevertheless pay to Lender (in
addition to the prepaid Principal and accrued interest), as a refund of the
unearned portion of the Premium, an amount equal to the Relevant Percentage of
(A) the Hypothetical Principal minus (B) the unpaid Principal (before accounting
for such prepayment). For purposes of the foregoing, (x) the "Relevant
Percentage" shall mean the percentage of the unpaid Principal that is being so
prepaid, and (y) the "Hypothetical Principal" shall mean the Principal balance
that would be outstanding on the date of such prepayment if the Rate Adjustment
had not been made (and Monthly Debt Service Payment Amounts were paid when due).
2.3 Loan Repayment and Defeasance.
2.3.1 Repayment. Borrower shall repay any unpaid Principal in
full and all other sums due to Lender under the Loan Documents on the Maturity
Date, together with interest thereon to (but excluding) the date of repayment.
Other than as set forth in Sections 2.2.3, 2.3.2, 2.3.3, 3.6, 3.7, 7.2.1, and
7.4.2 of this Agreement, Section 2.1(c) of the Master Financing Facility
Agreement, and Sections 5 and 6 of the Mortgage, Borrower shall have no right to
prepay all or any portion of the Principal before the Optional Prepayment Date.
From and after the Optional Prepayment Date, the Principal may be prepaid in
whole or in part without penalty or premium. If Borrower prepays the entire
Principal within thirty (30) days of the Optional Prepayment Date, then all
additional sums paid by Borrower to Lender due to the fact the repayment was
made after the Optional Prepayment Date, including interest at the Revised
Interest Rate, shall be refunded by Lender to Borrower.
2.3.2 Mandatory Prepayments. (a) The Loan is subject to mandatory
prepayment, without premium or penalty, in certain instances of Insured Casualty
or
1
34
Condemnation (each a "Casualty/Condemnation Prepayment"), in the manner and to
the extent set forth in Section 7.4.2. Each Casualty/Condemnation Prepayment
shall be made on a Payment Date and include all accrued and unpaid interest on
the Principal prepaid up to but not including such Payment Date.
(b) If, as of the Conversion Date (before giving effect to a
Rate Adjustment), the unpaid Principal exceeds the Re-sized Amount (the
"Conversion Shortfall"), then, on the Conversion Date, except to the extent
Borrower, at the direction of Manager, elects to have Lender provide Senior
Preferred Equity, Borrower shall (i) prepay a portion of the Principal equal to
such Conversion Shortfall (the "Special Prepaid Principal") and (ii) pay to
Lender (A) interest accrued at the Interest Rate on the Special Prepaid
Principal to (but not including) the date of such payment and (B) Lender's
Expenses, if any. Except for Lender's Expenses, if any, such prepayment shall be
without any Yield Maintenance Premium or other prepayment consideration. If
Borrower, at the direction of Manager, elects to have Lender finance Senior
Preferred Equity, Lender shall make the Senior Preferred Equity investment in
Borrower in an amount as calculated in accordance with the terms of Schedule 2.
If Borrower, at the direction of Manager, elects to have Lender finance Senior
Preferred Equity, Lender shall have the right, in lieu of investing Senior
Preferred Equity solely in the Borrower under this Agreement, to invest Senior
Preferred Equity indirectly in Borrower and in more than one Other Borrower by
giving notice of such election to Borrower, Manager and each such Other
Borrower. If Borrower, at the direction of Manager, makes such an election,
Borrower shall, within twenty (20) days after such notice, (i) form a limited
liability company or limited partnership that is an Affiliate of Borrower and is
a Special Purpose Bankruptcy Remote Entity whose sole managing member or sole
general partner is a Special Purpose Bankruptcy Remote Entity wholly owned by
Borrower Owner (an "Umbrella Entity"), (ii) transfer or cause the transfer of
all equity interests in Borrower and each Other Borrower, other than interests
owned by the Borrower Owner thereof, to such Umbrella Entity, and (iii) Borrower
and each Other Borrower shall amend its partnership or operating agreement or
articles of incorporation to provide that all distributions of cash from
whatever source will be made to such Umbrella Entity so long as any Preferred
Equity in such Umbrella Entity is outstanding. If the Senior Preferred Equity,
when combined with the Re-sized Amount and the amount prepaid by Borrower, if
any, does not equal the unpaid Principal, any interest accrued at the Interest
Rate on the Special Prepaid Principal, plus Lender's Expenses, if any, and all
fees and costs payable by Borrower hereunder on the Conversion Date, Lender
shall have the right, at its option (but not the obligation), to make (or cause
its Affiliate to make) a junior preferred equity investment in Borrower (the
"Junior Preferred Equity", collectively with the Senior Preferred Equity, the
"Preferred Equity") on the Conversion Date in an amount of up to (but not
exceeding) the sum of the remaining Conversion Shortfall, Lender's Expenses, if
any, and all fees and costs payable by Borrower hereunder on the Conversion Date
(including the Additional Loan Structuring Fee payable pursuant to Section 2.6.3
and legal fees and other costs incurred in connection with the transactions
hereunder on the Conversion Date). The investment of the Preferred Equity shall
be on the terms set forth in Schedule 2. Borrower shall apply the proceeds of
the Preferred Equity to the prepayment of the Special Prepaid Principal, any
interest accrued at the Interest Rate on the Special Prepaid Interest, and the
payment of Lender's Expenses, if any, and such other fees
1
35
and costs described above. Borrower and the partners in Borrower shall execute
and deliver such documents (including an amendment to Borrower's partnership
agreement) as Lender shall reasonably require in order to evidence and confirm
Lender's rights with respect to the Preferred Equity. Borrower shall be
obligated on the Conversion Date to prepay the Special Prepaid Principal, and to
pay any interest accrued at the Interest Rate on the Special Prepaid Interest,
Lender's Expenses, if any, and the other fees and costs described above, whether
or not Lender elects to provide any Preferred Equity.
(c) On the Conversion Date, Borrower shall prepay a portion of
the Principal in an amount equal to the Premium, if Lender elects to make the
Rate Adjustment. Such prepayment shall be without any Yield Maintenance Premium
or other prepayment consideration.
2.3.3 Voluntary Defeasance of the Note. (a) Subject to the
terms and conditions set forth in this Section 2.3.3, Borrower may defease all
or any portion of the Principal (hereinafter, a "Defeasance"); provided, that no
such Defeasance may occur after the Conversion Date and prior to the Release
Date and provided from time to time no Defeasance shall be required from and
after the Optional Prepayment Date. Each Defeasance shall be subject, in each
case, to the satisfaction of the following conditions precedent:
(i) Borrower shall provide not less than thirty (30)
days prior notice to Lender specifying a Payment Date (the "Defeasance
Date") on which the Defeasance is to occur. Such notice shall indicate
the Principal to be defeased.
(ii) Borrower shall pay to Lender (A) all accrued and
unpaid interest on the unpaid Principal to and including the Defeasance
Date, (B) all other sums, not including scheduled interest or Principal
payments, then due under the Loan Documents, (c) the required
Defeasance Deposit for such Defeasance, and (D) all reasonable costs
and expenses of Lender incurred in the Defeasance, including any costs
and expenses associated with a release of Lien as provided in Section
2.4 and reasonable attorney's fees and expenses. A voluntary Defeasance
of the Loan by Borrower is required to be made on a Payment Date. If
for any reason the Defeasance Date is not a Payment Date, Borrower
shall also pay interest that would have accrued on the Note to but not
including the next Payment Date.
(iii) No Event of Default shall exist.
(iv) If only a portion of the unpaid Principal is the
subject of the Defeasance, Borrower shall execute and deliver all
necessary documents to amend and restate the Note and issue two
substitute notes: one having a principal balance equal to the defeased
portion of the original Note (the "Defeased Note") and the other having
a principal balance equal to the undefeased portion of the original
Note (the "Undefeased Note"). The Defeased Note and Undefeased Note
shall have terms identical to the terms
1
36
of the Note, except for the principal balance. A Defeased Note cannot be
the subject of any further Defeasance.
(v) If a Subordinate Mortgage encumbers the Property
at the time Borrower elects to defease the Loan as provided in this
Section 2.3.3, the Defeasance Deposit that Borrower must provide shall
be equal to the Defeasance Deposit multiplied by 1.25. In addition, if
a Subordinate Mortgage encumbers the Property, the Defeasance will be
permitted only if all of the Other Properties have a Debt Service
Coverage Ratio of not less than the greater of (a) the Debt Service
Coverage Ratio on the Conversion Date or (b) the Debt Service Coverage
Ratio immediately before the Defeasance. The sum paid in excess of the
Defeasance Deposit shall be used to defease the Other Loans.
(vi) Borrower shall execute and deliver a security
agreement, in form and substance satisfactory to Lender, creating a
first priority lien on the Defeasance Deposit and the U.S. Obligations
purchased with the Defeasance Deposit in accordance with this Section
2.3.3 (the "Security Agreement").
(vii) Borrower shall deliver (A) an opinion of
counsel for Borrower in form satisfactory to Lender in its discretion
stating, among other things, that without qualification, (1) Lender has
a perfected first priority security interest in the Defeasance Deposit
and the U.S. Obligations delivered by Borrower and (2) such U.S.
Obligations have been validly assigned to the REMIC Trust, (B) if
required by the applicable Rating Agencies, a non-consolidation opinion
with respect to the Successor Borrower in form and substance
satisfactory to Lender and the applicable Rating Agencies, (C) an
Officer's Certificate certifying that the requirements set forth in
this Section 2.3.3(a) have been satisfied, (D) a certificate from an
Independent certified public accountant certifying that the amounts of
the U.S. Obligations comply with all of the requirements of this
Section 2.3.3 of this Agreement, and (E) such other certificates,
documents or instruments as Lender may reasonably request.
(viii) Lender shall receive evidence in writing from
the applicable Rating Agencies to the effect that such Defeasance will
not result in a qualification, withdrawal or downgrading of the ratings
in effect immediately prior to such Defeasance for the Securities then
outstanding.
(b) In connection with each Defeasance, Borrower hereby
appoints Lender as its agent and attorney-in-fact for the purpose of using the
Defeasance Deposit to purchase U.S. Obligations (which purchases, if made by
Lender, shall be made by Lender on an arms-length basis at then prevailing
market rates) which provide payments on or prior to, but as close as possible
to, all successive Payment Dates after the Defeasance Date through and including
the Optional Prepayment Date, for the entire unpaid Principal in the case of a
total Defeasance, or for the principal amount of the Defeased Note, in the case
of a Defeasance for only a portion of the unpaid Principal (including, on the
Optional Prepayment Date, the unpaid Principal of either the Note or the
Defeased Note), and in amounts equal to the scheduled payments of Principal
1
37
and interest due on such dates under the Note, in the event of a total
Defeasance, or the Defeased Note in the event of a partial Defeasance, as
applicable (the "Scheduled Defeasance Payments"). Borrower, pursuant to the
Security Agreement or other appropriate document, shall irrevocably authorize
and direct that the payments received from the U.S. Obligations be made directly
to Lender and applied to satisfy the obligations of Borrower under the Note or
the Defeased Note, as applicable. Any portion of the Defeasance Deposit in
excess of the amount necessary to purchase the U.S. Obligations required by this
Section 2.3.3(b) and to satisfy Borrower's obligations under Section 2.3 shall
be remitted to Borrower. Any amounts received in respect of the U.S. Obligations
in excess of the amounts necessary to make monthly payments pursuant to Section
2.2 shall be retained by Lender until payment in full of the Debt. Semiannual
payments in respect of U.S. Obligations, if any, shall be applied to payments
under the Note or the Defeased Note, as applicable, as the same become due
thereunder.
(c) If requested by Borrower in connection with any Defeasance
under this Section 2.3.3, Lender shall establish or designate a successor entity
(the "Successor Borrower") and Borrower shall transfer and assign all
obligations, rights and duties under and to the Note or the Defeased Note, as
applicable, together with the pledged U.S. Obligations, to such Successor
Borrower. The obligation of Lender to establish or designate a Successor
Borrower shall be retained by Lender notwithstanding the sale or transfer of
this Agreement unless such obligation is specifically assumed by the transferee.
Such Successor Borrower shall assume the obligations under the Note or the
Defeased Note, as applicable, and the Security Agreement, and Borrower shall be
relieved of its obligations thereunder and Manager, Other Borrower, and
Guarantor shall be released from their obligations hereunder and any other Loan
Documents. Borrower shall pay $1,000 to any such Successor Borrower as
consideration for assuming the obligations under the Note or the Defeased Note,
as applicable, and the Security Agreement. Notwithstanding anything in this
Agreement to the contrary, no other assumption fee shall be payable upon a
transfer of the Note or the Defeased Note in accordance with this Section 2.3.3,
but Borrower shall pay all costs and expenses incurred by Lender, including
Lender's reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses, incurred in connection
therewith. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if the
Yield Maintenance Premium is due as a result of the acceleration of the
Indebtedness after the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender shall have the
right to receive and collect the Yield Maintenance Premium but shall have no
obligation to purchase U.S. Obligations or otherwise comply with this Section
2.3.3.
2.4 Release of Property. Except as set forth in this Section
2.4, no repayment, prepayment or defeasance of all or any portion of the Note
shall cause, give rise to a right to require, or otherwise result in, the
release of the Lien of the Mortgage, any Other Properties Subordinate Mortgage,
or the Subordinate Mortgage.
2.4.1 Release on Defeasance. If Borrower has elected to
defease the Note in its entirety, and the requirements of Section 2.3.3 have
been satisfied, the Property, Borrower, Guarantor, Manager and Other Borrower
shall be released from the Lien of the Mortgage, the Subordinated Mortgage, and
the Other Properties Subordinate Mortgage (only to the extent it secures this
Loan), the Guaranties, the Non-Recourse Guaranty, and all other Loan Documents,
1
38
and the U.S. Obligations pledged pursuant to the Security Agreement shall be the
sole source of collateral securing the Debt. In connection with such release,
Borrower or Manager shall submit to Lender, not less than twenty (20) days prior
to the Defeasance Date, a form of release or releases for execution by Lender
appropriate in the State and satisfactory to Lender in its reasonable
discretion, and all other documentation Lender reasonably requires to be
delivered by Borrower or Manager, together with an Officer's Certificate
certifying that such documentation (i) is in compliance with all Legal

written request and at the expense of Borrower or Manager, upon payment in full
of the Debt in accordance herewith, release the Lien of the Mortgage, the Other

Subordinate Mortgage, and all other Loan Documents if not theretofore released
and, upon Borrower's or Manager's request, Lender will notify all banks
identified by Borrower or Manager that it no longer has any interest in the
accounts and will release all other collateral and funds of Borrower and/or
Manager.
2.5 Payments and Computations.
2.5.1 Making of Payments. Each payment by Borrower hereunder
or under the Note shall be made in funds settled through the New York Clearing
House Interbank Payments System or other funds immediately available to Lender
by 12:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date such payment is due, to Lender by
deposit to such account as Lender may designate by written notice to Borrower
and Manager. Whenever any payment hereunder or under the Note shall be stated to
be due on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the
first Business Day thereafter.
2.5.2 Computations. Interest payable hereunder or under the
Note shall be computed on the actual number of days elapsed in each year over a
360-day year, compounded monthly.
2.5.3 Late Payment Charge. If any Principal, interest, or
other sum due under any Loan Document is not paid by Borrower or Manager within
the applicable grace period (unless such payment is not made in connection with
an acceleration of the Debt by Lender), Borrower shall pay to Lender an amount
equal to the lesser of five percent (5%) of such unpaid Principal, interest, or
other sum or the maximum amount permitted by applicable law, in order to defray
the expense incurred by Lender in handling and processing such delinquent
payment and to compensate Lender for the loss of the use of such delinquent

39
2.6.1 Draw Fees. Simultaneously with each Advance of the
Initial Loan made by Lender, Borrower shall pay to Lender a draw fee (the "Draw

Lender or, if so directed by Lender, to Servicer, a servicing and administration
fee (the "Servicing Fee") from Loan proceeds in an amount equal to either (i)
prior to the Substantial Completion Date for the Property, Three Thousand and
00/100 Dollars ($3,000.00) for each Advance made with respect to the Property,
which shall be paid concurrently with such Advance, or (ii) upon and after the

including the Conversion Date.
2.6.3 Structuring Fee Upon Conversion. On the Conversion Date,
Borrower and/or Manager shall pay to Lender an additional structuring fee (the
"Additional Loan Structuring Fee") from Loan proceeds in an amount equal to one
percent (1.0%) of the greater of (i) the Re-sized Amount or (ii) the Initial

2.6.4 Advances. Borrower and Manager hereby irrevocably
authorize and direct Lender to pay itself each of the fees payable hereunder out
of the proceeds of Advances being made at or after the time such fee is due.
2.7 Taxes. Any and all payments by Borrower hereunder and

law or regulation of any Governmental Authority (all such non-excluded taxes,
levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities being
hereinafter referred to in this Section 2.7 as "Applicable Taxes"). If Borrower
shall be required by law to deduct any Applicable Taxes from or in respect of
any sum payable hereunder to Lender, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as
may be necessary so that after making all required deductions (including
deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.7), Lender
receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such
deductions been made, (ii) Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii)
Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority
or other authority in accordance with applicable law. Borrower also agrees to
pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or
property taxes, charges or similar levies which arise from any payment made
hereunder or from the execution, delivery or recordation of, or otherwise with
respect to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document ("Other Taxes"). Borrower
shall indemnify Lender for the full amount of Applicable Taxes or Other Taxes
(including any Applicable Taxes or Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on

(including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect
thereto, whether or not such Applicable Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or
legally asserted.

after the date Lender makes written demand therefor provided Borrower and/or
Manager shall have the right to contest same as provided in Sections 5.1.2 and
5.2.2.
2.8 Breakage Indemnity. Borrower shall indemnify Lender
against any loss or expense which Lender may actually sustain or incur as a
consequence of (i) any payment or prepayment of the Loan or any portion thereof

precedent to the making of such Advance and (iv) the occurrence of any Event of
Default, in each case including any loss or expense actually sustained or
incurred or determined by Lender to be actually sustained or incurred in
liquidating or redeploying deposits from third parties acquired to effect or
maintain the Loan or any part thereof. Such loss or expense shall include any
Yield Maintenance Premium payable pursuant to the Note, as well as an amount
equal to the excess, if any, as determined by Lender of (A) its cost of
obtaining the funds for the Loan or portion thereof being paid or prepaid for
the period from the date of such payment or prepayment to the last day of the
then current Interest Period over (B) the amount of interest (as determined by
Lender) that would be realized by Lender in redeploying the funds so paid or
prepaid for the balance of such Interest Period. A certificate of Lender setting
forth any amount or amounts which it is entitled to receive pursuant to this
Section 2.8 shall be binding and conclusive absent manifest error.
2.9 Security for the Loan. The Note and Borrower's and
Manager's obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall be
secured by the Mortgage, the Other Properties Subordinate Mortgages, the
Guaranties, the Assignments of Leases, the Assignments of Agreements, the Other

III. CASH MANAGEMENT; ESCROWS AND RESERVES
3.1 Cash Management Arrangements. All Rents shall be
transmitted directly by tenants of the Property into one or more accounts (the
"Clearing Accounts") maintained by Borrower or Manager but controlled by Lender
at one or more banks selected by Manager (the "Clearing Banks") all in
accordance with the Clearing Account Agreement. If any tenants pay their Rents
directly to either the Borrower or the Manager, all Rents received by Borrower
or Manager shall be deposited into a Clearing Account within one (1) Business
Day of receipt. Except during a Cash Management Period, funds deposited into the
Clearing Accounts shall be swept by the Clearing Banks on a daily basis into
Manager's operating account at a Clearing Bank. During a Cash Management Period,
such funds shall be swept by the Clearing Banks on a daily basis into an account
at the Deposit Bank controlled by Lender (a "Deposit Account") and applied and
disbursed in accordance with this Agreement and the Deposit Account Agreement
and, pending such application and disbursement, will be invested in Permitted
Investments selected by Manager, with any earnings thereon accruing for the
benefit of Borrower. If the Deposit Account Agreement is no longer in effect
when a Cash Management Period resumes, then, within fifteen (15) days after
Lender's request, Borrower and Manager shall enter into one or more deposit
account agreements among Borrower, Manager, Lender and the Deposit Bank, in
Lender's then current form revised in accordance with this Agreement, providing
for the receipt and disbursement of Rents by the Deposit Bank in accordance
herewith. The Deposit Account and all subaccounts thereof shall at all times be
Eligible Accounts (such subaccounts, and any other accounts or subaccounts at
the Deposit Bank, other than the Deposit Account, are referred to herein as
"Subaccounts"). The "Cash Management Period" shall mean and consist of (i) the
period from the Loan Closing Date to the Conversion Date, (ii) the period from
the Optional Prepayment Date to the end of the Term, (iii) the period from the
occurrence of a monetary Event of Default to the date following the first (1st)
anniversary of the curing of such monetary Event of Default on which the Debt
Service Coverage Ratio is at least equal to 1.27x, (iv) the period from the
occurrence of a non-monetary Event of Default to the date such non-monetary
Event of Default is cured; provided, however, if more than two (2) non-monetary
Events of Default occur in any twelve (12) month period, then commencing upon
the occurrence of a third (3rd) non-monetary Event of Default to the date
following the first (1st) anniversary of the curing of such non-monetary Event
of Default on which the Debt Service Coverage Ratio is at least equal to 1.27x,
(v) if the audited financial statements provided to Lender pursuant to Section
5.1.9 and 5.2.9 indicate that less than ninety percent (90%) of the actual Rents
from the Property have been deposited into the Clearing Account, then the period
from such determination to the date following the first (1st) anniversary of
such determination, and (vi) the period from the investment of Preferred Equity
until the payment in full of the Preferred Equity and the Preferred Yield (as
defined in Schedule 2) thereon. Lender hereby agrees to deliver to the Clearing
Bank and the Deposit Bank written notice that the particular Cash Management
Period has ended no later than fifteen (15) days following the end of a Cash
Management Period, together with instructions to remit all sums remaining in
Manager's Subaccount as directed, to Manager.

42
3.2 Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund. Borrower shall pay to
Lender on each Payment Date after Substantial Completion (i) one-twelfth of the
Taxes that Lender estimates, in its reasonable discretion, will be payable
during the next twelve (12) months in order to accumulate with Lender sufficient
funds to pay all such Taxes at least thirty (30) days prior to their respective
due dates, and (ii) one-twelfth (1/12th) of the Insurance Premiums that Lender
estimates will be payable for the renewal of the coverage afforded by the
Policies upon the expiration thereof in order to accumulate with Lender
sufficient funds to pay all such Insurance Premiums at least thirty (30) days
prior to the expiration of the Policies (the amounts paid under the foregoing
clauses (i) and (ii), less disbursements thereof pursuant hereto, being called
the "Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund"). Lender will apply the Tax and Insurance
Escrow Fund to payments of Taxes and Insurance Premiums required to be made
after Substantial Completion by Borrower and/or Manager pursuant to Sections
5.1.2, 5.2.2 and 7.1, or to reimburse Borrower and/or Manager for such amounts
upon presentation of evidence of payment and an Officer's Certificate in form
and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender; subject, however, to Borrower's
and/or Manager's right to contest Taxes in accordance with Sections 5.1.2 and
5.2.2. In making any payment relating to the Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund,
Lender may do so, prior to an Event of Default, in accordance with Manager's
direction if there is a contest in progress (provided Borrower and/or Manager is
following the Contest Procedures), and subsequent to an Event of Default
according to any xxxx, statement or estimate procured from the appropriate
public office (with respect to Taxes) or insurer or agent (with respect to
Insurance Premiums), without inquiry into the accuracy of such xxxx, statement
or estimate or into the validity of any tax, assessment, sale, forfeiture, tax
lien or title or claim thereof. If the amount of the Tax and Insurance Escrow
Fund shall exceed the amounts next coming due for Taxes and Insurance Premiums
pursuant to Sections 5.1.2, 5.2.2 and 7.1, Lender shall, in its discretion,
return any excess as directed by Manager or credit such excess against the next
payment to be made to the Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund. If at any time after
Substantial Completion Lender determines that the Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund
is not or will not be sufficient to pay the Taxes or Insurance Premiums next
coming due, Lender shall notify Borrower and/or Manager of such determination
and Borrower shall increase its monthly payments to Lender by the amount that
Lender estimates, in Lender's reasonable discretion, is sufficient to make up
the deficiency at least thirty (30) days prior to delinquency of the Taxes
and/or expiration of the Policies, as the case may be. Should the Taxes and
Insurance Premiums for the then current Fiscal Year or payment period not be
ascertainable by Lender at the time a monthly deposit is required to be made,
the Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund monthly installment shall be Lender's
reasonable and good faith estimate based on one-twelfth (1/12th) of the
aggregate Tax and Insurance for the prior Fiscal Year or payment period, with
reasonable adjustments as reasonably determined by Lender. As soon as the Taxes
and Insurance Premiums are fixed for the then current Fiscal Year or period, the
next ensuing monthly installment of Taxes and Insurance Premiums shall be
adjusted to reflect any deficiency or surplus in prior Tax and Insurance Escrow
Fund monthly installments.
1
43
3.3 Capital Reserve Fund.
3.3.1 Capital Reserve Fund. Borrower shall pay to Lender on
each Payment Date after Substantial Completion (in addition to other payments
required hereunder) an amount equal to one-twelfth of the greater of (a) the
product obtained by multiplying $250 by the number of units in the Property or
(b) the amount indicated in the Engineering Report(s) as the annual amount
required to maintain the Property (such payments, less disbursements thereof
pursuant hereto, being called the "Capital Reserve Fund"). If the amount of the
Capital Reserve Fund shall exceed the amounts due for Approved Capital Expenses
pursuant to the terms hereof, Lender shall, in its discretion, return any excess
as directed by Manager or, if future Capital Reserve Fund payments are then
required, credit such excess against such future payments. Lender shall have the
right, from time to time, by at least thirty (30) days prior notice to Borrower
and Manager, to adjust the monthly amount required to be deposited into the
Capital Reserve Fund, based upon Lender's reasonable determination of
anticipated Capital Expenses.
3.3.2 Payment of Capital Expenses. From time to time (but not
more often than once per month, Lender shall disburse funds held in the Capital
Reserve Fund to Borrower or, as directed by Manager, within fifteen (15) days
after the delivery by Borrower or Manager, as applicable, to Lender of a request
therefor, in increments of at least $1,000 provided (i) no Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing; (ii) such disbursement is for an Approved
Capital Expense; (iii) Lender shall have (if it desires) verified (by an
inspection conducted at Borrower's expense) performance of the work associated
with such Approved Capital Expense; and (iv) the request for disbursement is
accompanied by (A) an Officer's Certificate certifying (v) the amount of funds
to be disbursed, (w) that such funds will be used to pay (or reimburse Borrower
or Manager, as applicable, for) Approved Capital Expenses and a description
thereof, (x) that all outstanding trade payables (other than those to be paid
from the requested disbursement or those otherwise permitted to be outstanding
under Section 6.1.8 and 6.2.8) have been paid in full, (y) that the same has not
been the subject of a previous dis bursement, and (z) that all previous
disbursements have been used to pay the previously identified Approved Capital
Expenses, and (B) reasonably detailed documentation as to the amount, necessity
and purpose therefor.
3.4 Operating Expenses.
3.4.1 Payment of Approved Operating Expenses. From time to
time during the Cash Management Period (but not more than once per month) Lender
shall disburse funds held in the Operating Expense Subaccount to Borrower or
Manager, as directed by Manager, provided (i) no Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing; (ii) such disbursement is for an Approved Operating
Expense; and (iii) such disbursement is requested by Borrower or Manager, as
applicable, in writing, accompanied by (A) an Operating Expense Certificate and
(B) reasonably detailed documentation as to the amount, necessity and purpose
therefor. Subject to satisfaction of the preceding conditions, if Lender
receives from Borrower or Manager a valid request for a disbursement for payment
of Approved Operating Expenses for the then Current
1
44
Month at least five (5) Business Days prior to the Payment Date occurring in
such Current Month, then the disbursement in respect of such Approved Operating
Expenses shall be made as directed by Manager on such Payment Date. If Borrower
or Manager shall fail to validly request a disbursement for payment of Approved
Operating Expenses for the then Current Month at least five (5) Business Days
prior to the Payment Date in such Current Month, then Lender shall retain in the
Operating Expense Subaccount an amount equal to the anticipated Operating
Expenses for the then Current Month as set forth in the approved Operating
Budget for such month, and Lender shall, subject to satisfaction of the
preceding conditions, disburse the same as directed by Manager five (5) Business
Days after Lender receives a valid request therefor.
3.4.2 Extra Funds for Operating Expenses. Subsequent to the
Conversion Date, during each of the following periods (i) any period in which
Lender or its designee is an equity owner in Manager and/or Borrower and (ii)
any Cash Management Period, not more frequently than once each Interest Period
and provided that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, if in a
given Interest Period the Manager requires amounts in excess of the Approved
Operating Expenses ("Extra Funds"), Manager, at the time it delivers the
Operating Expense Certificate, may deliver a written request to Lender for a
disbursement of Extra Funds stating the amount of such Extra Funds and the
purpose for which such amount is intended with attachments of copies of bills
and other documentation as may be required by Lender to establish that such
Operating Expenses are reasonable and that such amounts are then due or expected
to become due in that month. If Lender approves of such costs (such approval not
to be unreasonably withheld), Lender shall release the funds to Manager or its
designee within ten (10) Business Days of Lender's receipt of Manager's written
request.
3.4.3 Reconciliation. Manager shall furnish Lender monthly, on
each Payment Date during a Cash Management Period, a budget variance report
reconciling the Operating Expenses shown on the Annual Budget with requested
disbursements for payment of Operating Expenses pursuant to Section 3.4.
3.5 Working Capital Subaccount. On each Payment Date during a
Cash Management Period, funds in the Working Capital Subaccount may be
transferred, at Lender's option, to other Subaccounts to the extent that Rents
received in the immediately preceding Interest Period are insufficient to
allocate sufficient amounts to such Subaccounts to make all the payments
required under clauses (i) through (v) of Section 2.2.3(a) or 2.2.3(b) or
clauses (i) through (vii) of Section 2.2.3(c), as applicable, on such Payment
Date.
3.6 Cash Collateral Subaccount. Lender may with Manager's
consent, from time to time on or before the Conversion Date, apply any or all
amounts in the Cash Collateral Subaccount to repay the outstanding Principal
and/or any other portion of the Debt then due and payable without any penalty or
premium. Upon the request of Manager, on or before the Conversion Date, Lender
shall apply any or all amounts in the Cash Collateral Subaccount to repay the
outstanding Principal and/or any other portion of the Debt then due and payable
without any penalty or premium. From and after the Substantial Completion Date
until the Conversion Date, Manager may request that all excess cash flow in the
Cash Collateral
1
45
Subaccount be paid as directed by Manager, provided: i) no Default or Event of
Default has occurred and is then continuing, ii) Manager makes a written request
to Lender (no more than once per month) for the payment thereof at least ten
(10) days prior to Payment Date on which or after which such funds are to be
distributed as requested by Manager, and iii) pay over such amounts as directed
by Manager subject to the letter of credit conditions specified below. Lender
may require, in its discretion, that Manager deliver to Lender, as beneficiary,
one or more clean, irrevocable letters of credit, reasonably satisfactory to
Lender in form and content and as to the bank or trust company which is the
issuer (which issuer must have an S&P rating of "A" or better) equal in amount
to the funds paid over to or as directed by Manager (unless and to the extent
such funds are used to reduce the outstanding Principal as provided in this
Section 3.6). Any such letter of credit shall have an expiration date not
earlier than thirty (30) days after the Expected Conversion Date, provided that
the expiration date may be one (1) year from its issuance if the letter of
credit provides for a drawing by Lender of the full amount thereof at any time
on or after the thirtieth (30th) day preceding its stated expiration date. Any
letter of credit shall be held by Lender and may be drawn at any time within
thirty (30) days prior to the expiration thereof, upon the occurrence and during
the continuance of an Event of Default, or within thirty (30) days prior to the
Expected Conversion Date, whereupon the proceeds of the letter of credit shall
be deposited in the Cash Collateral Subaccount. On the Conversion Date, provided
no Default or Event of Default exists (and all payments required to be made by
Borrower and/or Manager on the Conversion Date have been made), Lender shall
disburse to Manager, or as otherwise directed by Manager, the funds (if any)
remaining in the Cash Collateral Subaccount.
3.7 Security Deposits. Borrower or Manager, as applicable,
shall collect all security deposits under Leases and shall endorse all checks
and deposit all such funds and other receipts on account of security deposits
within two (2) Business Days after receipt thereof, directly into the Security
Deposit Account - Clearing Bank. Borrower and Manager shall also deposit into
the Security Deposit Account - Clearing Bank all amounts drawn down under any
letters of credit held by Borrower or Manager in lieu of cash security deposits.
Neither Borrower nor Manager shall have any right of withdrawal from the
Security Deposit Account Clearing Bank except that, prior to the occurrence of
an Event of Default which is continuing, if either Borrower or Manager desires
to receive funds from the Security Deposit Account Clearing Bank, Borrower or
Manager may do so only if each of the following conditions are satisfied: (i)
Borrower or Manager submits a written request to Lender, certified by an
authorized officer of Borrower or Lender, and (ii) such request states (a) that
Borrower or Manager is required by law or contract to return a tenant's security
deposit or to use such security deposit for repairs or payment of rent, in
accordance with such tenant's lease, (b) the amount of and use for the security
deposit to be returned, (c) the lease and the name of the tenant to which such
security deposit relates, and (d) that no Event of Default exists under the Loan
Documents. In the event that Borrower delivers a notice in accordance with the
foregoing, Lender shall instruct the Clearing Bank (i) in the case of any
security deposit to be utilized to pay rent, to transfer such funds from the
Security Deposit Account - Clearing Bank to Manager within ten (10) days of
receipt of Lender's written direction to the Clearing Bank and (ii) with respect
to all other uses of such security deposit accounts, to release funds so
1
46
requested to Manager, or as otherwise directed by Manager, within ten (10) days
of receipt of Lender's written direction to the Clearing Account Bank to release
such funds. Except as provided above, neither Borrower nor Manager shall have
any right to funds in the Security Deposit Account - Clearing Bank.
Notwithstanding anything set forth herein, Borrower or Manager may withdraw
funds from the Security Deposit Account - Clearing Bank to refund or apply
security deposits as required by applicable Legal Requirements upon providing
prior written notice to Lender, which notice shall include evidence reasonably
satisfactory to Lender that such release is required by all applicable Legal
Requirements. During a Cash Management Period, any funds in the Security Deposit
Account - Clearing Bank that are to be applied against rent arrearages under any
Lease shall be transferred by the Clearing Bank from the Security Deposit
Account - Clearing Bank to the Security Deposit Account - Deposit Bank and
applied in accordance with the Deposit Account Agreement. Neither Borrower nor
Manager shall have any right to funds in the Security Deposit Account - Deposit
Bank, except that Borrower or Manager may request and Lender shall release any
security deposit directly to a tenant if required by applicable law.
Any letter of credit or other instrument that Borrower or
Manager receives in lieu of a cash security deposit shall (i) be maintained in
full force and effect in the full amount unless replaced by a cash deposit as
hereinabove described, (ii) be issued by an institution reasonably satisfactory
to Lender, (iii) if permitted pursuant to the Lease or any Legal Requirements,
name Lender as payee or mortgagee thereunder (or at Lender's option, be fully
assignable to Lender) and (iv) in all respects, comply with any applicable Legal
Requirements and otherwise be reasonably satisfactory to Lender. Borrower shall,
upon request, provide Lender with evidence reasonably satisfactory to Lender of
Borrower's compliance with the foregoing.
3.8 Grant of Security Interest; Application of Funds. As
security for payment of the Debt and the performance by Borrower and Manager of
all other terms, conditions and provisions of the Loan Documents, Borrower and
Manager hereby pledge and assign to Lender, and grant to Lender a security
interest in, all Borrower's and Manager's (if any) right, title and interest in
and to the Deposit Account, all Subaccounts, the Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund,
the Capital Reserve Fund, and any other escrow or reserve funds or accounts
established in connection with this Loan (collectively, the "Funds"). Neither
Borrower nor Manager shall, without obtaining the prior written consent of
Lender, further pledge, assign or grant any security interest in the Deposit
Account, any Subaccount or any Fund, or permit any Lien to attach thereto, or
any levy to be made thereon, or any UCC-l Financing Statements, except those
naming Lender as the secured party, to be filed with respect thereto. This
Agreement is, among other things, intended by the parties to be a security
agreement for purposes of the UCC. Upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, Lender may apply any sums in the Deposit
Account, any Subaccount or any Fund to the payment of the Debt and/or to the
payment of Taxes, Insurance Premiums, Capital Expenses and/or Operating
Expenses, in any order in its discretion. Neither the Deposit Account nor any
Subaccount or Fund shall constitute a trust fund and may be commingled with
other monies held by Lender. Sums in each Fund shall be held by Lender in a
Subaccount and invested in Permitted Investments. Earnings or interest, if any,
on each Fund shall become part of such
1
47
Fund and shall be disbursed as provided herein for such Fund. Borrower shall be
responsible for and pay all income taxes payable with respect to such earnings
and interest, and shall execute and deliver any IRS Form W-9 or other
appropriate documentation Lender reasonably requires in connection therewith.
Lender shall not be liable for any loss sustained on the investment of any funds
constituting any Fund. Amounts disbursed to Borrower or Manager under Sections
3.2 through 3.4 shall be used by Borrower or Manager solely to pay the expenses
for which such disbursement is requested.
IV. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
4.1 Borrower Representations. Borrower represents and warrants
as of the date hereof that, except to the extent (if any) disclosed on Schedule
3 (with reference to a specific subsection of this Section 4.1):
4.1.1 Organization; Special Purpose. Borrower is duly
organized and is validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its
state of formation, with requisite power and authority, and to Borrower's actual
knowledge without having conducted any investigation, with all rights, licenses,
permits and authorizations, governmental or otherwise, necessary to own its
properties and to transact the business in which it is now engaged. Borrower is
duly qualified to do business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction where
it is required to be so qualified in connection with its properties, business
and operations, except where failure to be so qualified would not have a
material adverse effect on the Borrower. Borrower is a Special Purpose
Bankruptcy Remote Entity, and the sole business of Borrower is the ownership,
development, management and operation of the Property.
4.1.2 Proceedings; Enforceability. Borrower has taken all
necessary action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of the
Loan Documents to which Borrower is a party. The Loan Documents to which
Borrower is a party have been duly executed and delivered by Borrower and
constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of Borrower enforceable against
Borrower in accordance with their respective terms, subject to applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws affecting rights of creditors generally,
and general principles of equity.
4.1.3 No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance by
Borrower of the Loan Documents to which Borrower is a party will not conflict
with or result in a breach of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a
default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any Lien (other than
pursuant to the Loan Documents) upon any of the property of Borrower pursuant to
the terms of, any agreement or instrument to which Borrower is a party to which
its property is subject, nor will such action result in any violation of the
provisions of any statute or any order, rule or regulation of any Governmental
Authority having jurisdiction over Borrower or any of its properties. To
Borrower's actual knowledge without having conducted any investigation,
Borrower's rights under the Licenses and the Management Agreement will not be
adversely affected by the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents,
Borrower's performance thereunder, the recordation of the Mortgage, the Other
Properties Subordinate
1
48
Mortgage or the exercise of any remedies by Lender. Any consent, approval,
authorization, order, registration or qualification of or with any Governmental
Authority required for the execution, delivery and performance by Borrower of
the Loan Documents has been obtained and is in full force and effect.
4.1.4 Litigation. There are no actions, suits or proceedings
at law or in equity by or before any Governmental Authority or other agency now
pending or threatened against or affecting Borrower or, to Borrower's actual
knowledge without having conducted any investigation, the Property, which, if
determined against Borrower or the Property could reasonably likely have a

financial or otherwise. To Borrower's actual knowledge without having conducted
any investigation, Borrower is not in default in any material respect in the

1
69

written notice to Lender of (i) any proceeding or inquiry by any party with
respect to the presence of any Hazardous Substance on, under, from or about the

initiated with respect to the Property in connection with any Environmental Law
or Hazardous Substance, and Borrower shall pay all reasonable attorneys' fees

reasonable request, at any time and from time to time when Lender has reason to
believe that Hazardous Substances are present on or under the Property in
violation of Environmental Laws, Borrower shall provide an inspection or audit
of the Property prepared by a licensed hydrogeologist, licensed environmental
engineer or qualified environmental consulting firm reasonably approved by
Lender indicating the presence or absence of Hazardous Substances on, in or near

Borrower not more frequently than once every five (5) calendar years after the
occurrence of a Securitization, unless Lender, in its good faith judgment,
determines that reasonable cause exists for the performance of an environmental
inspection or audit of the Property, in which case such inspections or audits
shall be at Borrower's sole expense. If Borrower fails to provide any such
inspection or audit within thirty (30) days after such request, Lender may order
same, and Borrower hereby grants to Lender and its employees and agents access
to the Property and a license to undertake such inspection or audit. The cost of
such inspection or audit may be added to the Debt and shall bear interest
thereafter at the Default Rate until paid. If any environmental site assessment
report prepared in connection with such inspection or audit recommends that an
operations and maintenance plan be implemented for any Hazardous Substance,
Borrower shall cause such operations and maintenance plan to be prepared and
implemented at its expense upon request of Lender. In the event that any
investigation, site monitoring, containment, cleanup, removal, restoration or
other work of any kind is reasonably necessary or required under an applicable
Environmental Law ("Remedial Work"), Borrower shall commence and thereafter
diligently prosecute to completion all such Remedial Work within thirty (30)
days after written demand by Lender for performance thereof (or such shorter
period of time as may be required under applicable law). All Remedial Work shall
be performed by contractors reasonably approved in advance by Lender, and under
the supervision of a consulting engineer reasonably approved by Lender. All
costs of such Remedial Work shall be paid by Borrower, including Lender's
reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements incurred in connection with the
monitoring or review of such Remedial Work. Borrower will not install or permit
to be installed on the Property any underground storage tank.

recommendations contained in the Environmental Report delivered to Lender in
connection with the origination of the Loan. Nothing herein shall prevent
Manager from recovering such expenses from any other party that may be liable

written notice to Lender of (i) any proceeding or inquiry by any party with
respect to the presence of any Hazardous Substance on, under, from or about the

investigation or cleanup pursuant to any Environmental Law. Manager shall permit
Lender to join and participate in, as a party if it so elects, any legal
proceedings or actions initiated with respect to the Property in connection with
any Environmental Law or Hazardous Substance, and Manager shall pay all
reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements incurred by Lender in connection
therewith. Upon Lender's reasonable request, at any time and from time to time
when Lender has reason to believe that Hazardous Substances are present on or
under the Property in violation of Environmental Laws, Manager shall provide an
inspection or audit of the Property prepared by a licensed hydrogeologist,
licensed environmental engineer or qualified environmental consulting firm
reasonably approved by Lender indicating the presence or absence of Hazardous
Substances on, in or near the Property. The cost and expense of such audit or
inspection shall be paid by Manager not more frequently than once every five (5)
calendar years after the occurrence of a Securitization, unless Lender, in its
good faith judgment, determines that reasonable cause exists for the performance
of an environmental inspection or audit of the Property, in which case such
inspections or audits shall be at Manager's sole expense. If Manager fails to
provide any such inspection or audit within thirty (30) days after such request,
Lender may order same, and Manager hereby grants to Lender and its employees and
agents access to the Property and a license to undertake such inspection or
audit. The cost of such inspection or audit may be added to the Debt and shall
bear interest thereafter at the Default Rate until paid. If any environmental
site assessment report prepared in connection with such inspection or audit
recommends that an operations and maintenance plan be implemented for any
Hazardous Substance, Manager shall cause such operations and maintenance plan to
be prepared and implemented at its expense upon request of Lender. In the event
that any Remedial Work is required under an applicable Environmental Law,
Manager shall commence and thereafter diligently prosecute to completion all
such Remedial Work within thirty (30) days after written demand by Lender for
performance thereof (or such shorter period of time as may be required under
applicable law). All Remedial Work shall be performed by contractors reasonably
approved in advance by Lender, and under the supervision of a consulting
engineer reasonably approved by Lender. All costs of such Remedial Work shall be
paid by Manager, including Lender's reasonable attorneys' fees and
1
84
disbursements incurred in connection with the monitoring or review of such
Remedial Work. Manager will not install or permit to be installed on the
Property any underground storage tank.

ten (10) days, a certificate, subject to the exculpation provisions contained in
Section 10.1 hereof, reaffirming all representations and warranties of Manager
set forth in the Loan Documents as of the date requested by Lender or, to the
extent of any changes to any such representations and warranties, so stating

twelve (12) month basis of not less than eighty-five percent (85%) of the Net
Operating Income as of the Conversion Date. If either of the aforementioned is

Agreement unless
1
85
Borrower shall defease a portion of the unpaid Principal to a level such that
the Debt Service Coverage Ratio on the undefeased portion of the unpaid
Principal is restored to a level of not less than 1.20x. All calculations of

VII. INSURANCE; CASUALTY; AND CONDEMNATION
7.1 Insurance.
7.1.1 Coverage. At all times while the Borrower is indebted to
Lender, either the Borrower or Manager shall maintain the following insurance:
(a) During any period of construction, repair or restoration,
builder's "all risk" insurance in an amount equal to not less than the
full insurable value of the Property and Equipment against such risks
(including, without limitation, fire and extended coverage and collapse
of the Improvements to agreed limits) as Lender may reasonably request,
in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Lender.
(b) Insurance with respect to the Improvements, Equipment and
Inventory against any peril included within the classification "All
Risks of Physical Loss" with extended coverage in amounts at all times
sufficient to prevent the Borrower and/or Manager 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, Equipment and Inventory located on
the Property, the term "full insurable value" to mean the actual
replacement cost of the Improvements, Equipment and Inventory (without
taking into account any depreciation), determined annually by an
insurer or by the Borrower or Manager or, at the request of Lender, by
an independent insurance broker (subject to Lender's reasonable
approval) including an endorsement covering acts of municipal
authorities including increased cost of construction and demolition;
(c) Comprehensive general liability insurance, including
contractual injury, bodily injury, broad form death and property damage
liability, and umbrella liability insurance against any and all claims,
including all legal liability to the extent insurable imposed upon
either Borrower or Manager 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 in such
amounts as are generally required by institutional lenders for
properties comparable to the Property but in no event with limits for
the Property of less than $1,000,000 per occurrence with combined
single limit coverage for bodily injury or property damage and excess
(umbrella) liability coverage for the Property of no less than
$25,000,000;
(d) Statutory workers' compensation insurance (to the extent
the risks to be covered thereby are not already covered by other
policies of insurance maintained by Borrower or Manager, with respect
to any work on or about the Property);
1
95
(e) Business interruption and/or loss of "rental value"
insurance for the Property in an amount equal to not less than eighteen
(18) months estimated Gross Revenue attributable to the Property and
based on the Gross Revenue for the immediately preceding year and
otherwise sufficient to avoid any co-insurance penalty;
(f) If all or any portion of the Property, or any portion of
the Land is located within a federally designated flood hazard zone,
flood insurance in an amount equal to the lesser of the full insurable
value of the Property or the maximum amount available;
(g) Insurance against loss or damage from (A) leakage of
sprinkler systems and (B) explosion of steam boilers, air conditioning
equipment, pressure vessels or similar apparatus now or hereafter
installed at the Property, in such amounts as Lender may from time to
time reasonably require and which are customarily required by
institutional lenders with respect to similar properties similarly
situated; and
(h) Such other insurance with respect to the Improvements,
Equipment and Inventory located on the Property against loss or damage
as is reasonably requested by Lender (including without limitation
liquor/dram insurance and earthquake insurance) provided such insurance
is of the kind 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.
7.1.2 Policies. The Borrower or Manager will maintain the
insurance coverage described in Section 7.1.1 with companies reasonably
acceptable to Lender and with a claims paying ability of not less than "AA" by
S&P and AA or its equivalent by any one of the other Rating Agencies. All
insurers providing insurance required by this Agreement shall be authorized and
licensed, if necessary, to issue insurance in the state where the Property is
located.
The insurance coverage required under Section 7.1.1 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 specify, except in the case of public liability
insurance, the portion of the total coverage of such policy that is allocated to
the Property and Equipment and Inventory located thereon, and any sublimits in
such blanket policy applicable to the Property, which amounts shall not be less
than the amounts required pursuant to Section 7.1.1 and which shall in any case
comply in all other respects with the requirements of this Section 7.
All insurance policies (the "Policies") shall be in such form
and with such endorsements and in such amounts as shall be reasonably
satisfactory to Lender (and Lender shall be entitled to approve amounts, form,
risk coverage, deductibles, loss payees and insureds). The policy referred to in
Section 7.1.1(b) shall contain a replacement cost endorsement and a waiver of
depreciation. Certificates of insurance evidencing that all of the
above-mentioned
1
96
Policies are in effect have been delivered to and shall be held by Lender. All
such Policies shall name Lender as an additional insured/loss payee, shall
provide that all Proceeds be payable to Lender as set forth in Section 7.1.3,
and shall contain: (i) "Non Contributory Standard Lender Clause" and a Lender's
Loss Payable Endorsement (Form 438 BFUNS) or their equivalents naming Lender as
the person to which all payments shall be paid and a provision that payment of
Proceeds in excess of $100,000 shall be made by a check payable only to Lender;
(ii) a waiver of subrogation endorsement as to Lender and its 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, Manager, Lender or any other named
insured, additional insured or loss payee, except for the willful misconduct of
Lender knowingly in violation of the conditions of such policy; (iii) an
endorsement indicating that neither Lender nor the Borrower or Manager 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
of an amount not more than that which is customarily maintained by prudent
owners of property of the same type and quality as the Property, but in no event
in excess of the greater of (i) $25,000 per occurrence or (ii) five percent (5%)
of Net Operating Income; (iv) a provision that such Policies shall not be
canceled or amended, including, without limitation, any amendment reducing the
scope or limits of coverage, without at least thirty (30) days prior written
notice to Lender in each instance; and (v) include effective waivers by the
insurer of all claims for Insurance Premiums against any loss payees, additional
insureds and named insureds (other than the Borrower or Manager). 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 Policies required to be maintained hereunder which certificates shall
bear notations evidencing payment of applicable premiums and certified copies or
evidence of the required coverage under blanket policies of such Policies shall
be delivered to Lender promptly after Borrower's and Manager's receipt thereof.
Borrower or Manager shall pay the premiums for such Policies (the "Insurance
Premiums") as the same become due and payable and furnish to Lender evidence of
the renewal of each of the Policies together with (unless such Insurance
Premiums have been paid by Lender pursuant to Section 3.2) receipts for or other
evidence of the payment of the Insurance Premiums reasonably satisfactory to
Lender. If either Borrower or Manager fails to maintain the insurance required
hereunder and deliver to Lender the certificates of insurance required by this
Agreement, Lender may, at its option, after written notice to both Borrower and
Manager, procure such insurance, and either Borrower or Manager shall reimburse
Lender for the amount of all premiums paid by Lender thereon within ten (10)
days after receipt of written notice of, and demand for, such amount, 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 Debt secured by the
Mortgage.
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 the Borrower's or Manager's payment or defense of lawsuits, and the
Borrower and Manager hereby expressly assume full responsibility therefor and
all liability, if any, with respect thereto.
1
97
7.1.3 Proceeds. Subject to the provisions of Section 7.4,
Lender shall be entitled to receive and collect all Insurance Proceeds (as
hereinafter defined) and Awards (as hereinafter defined) and all of the
Insurance Proceeds and Awards are hereby assigned to Lender. Borrower and
Manager shall execute such further assignments of the Insurance Proceeds and
Awards as Lender may from time to time reasonably require. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, but subject to the provisions of Section 7.4,
following the occurrence of any casualty or damage involving the Property or any
part thereof, Borrower and/or Manager shall give prompt notice thereof to Lender
and shall cause all Proceeds and Awards payable as a result of such casualty or
damage to be paid to Lender as additional collateral security hereunder subject
to the Lien of the Mortgage and Subordinate Mortgage, to be applied by Lender to
reduce the Debt.
7.2 Casualty.
7.2.1 Notice; Restoration. If the Property is damaged or
destroyed, in whole or in part, by fire or other casualty (a "Casualty"),
Borrower or Manager shall give prompt notice thereof to Lender and cause all
Proceeds to be paid to Lender, which shall, subject to the provisions of Section
7.4 herein, apply such Proceeds to reduce the Debt. Following the occurrence of
a Casualty, Borrower and/or Manager, regardless of whether insurance proceeds
are available, shall promptly proceed to restore, repair, replace or rebuild the
Property in accordance with Legal Requirements to be of at least equal value and
of substantially the same character as prior to such damage or destruction.
7.2.2 Settlement of Proceeds. In the event of a Casualty
covered by any of the Policies (an "Insured Casualty") where the loss does not
exceed One Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($100,000.00), Borrower or
Manager may settle and adjust any claim without the consent of Lender; provided
such adjustment is carried out in a competent and timely manner; and Borrower or
Manager is hereby authorized to collect and receipt for the insurance proceeds
(the "Proceeds"). Lender shall be entitled at its option to participate in any
compromise, adjustment or settlement in connection with any claims for loss,
damage or destruction under any policy or policies of insurance, in excess of
$100,000, and the Borrower and Manager shall within ten (10) Business Days after
request therefor reimburse the Lender for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses
(including reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements) incurred by the Lender
in connection with such participation. The Borrower and Manager shall not make
any compromise, adjustment or settlement in connection with any such claim in
excess of $100,000, without the prior written approval of the Lender, which
approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Proceeds shall be due and
payable solely to Lender and held by Lender in the Casualty/Condemnation
Subaccount and disbursed in accordance with the terms of Section 7 of this
Agreement.
1
98
7.3 Condemnation.
7.3.1 Notice; Restoration. Borrower or Manager shall promptly
give Lender notice of the actual or threatened commencement of any condemnation
or eminent domain proceeding affecting the Property (a "Condemnation") and shall
deliver to Lender copies of any and all papers served in connection with such
Condemnation. Following the occurrence of a Condemnation, Borrower and/or
Manager, regardless of whether an Award is available, shall promptly proceed to
restore, repair, replace or rebuild the Property in accordance with Legal
Requirements to the extent practicable to be of at least equal value and of
substantially the same character as prior to such Condemnation.
7.3.2 Collection of Award. Subject to Section 7.4, Lender is
hereby irrevocably appointed as Borrower's and Manager's attorney-in-fact,
coupled with an interest, with exclusive power to collect, receive and retain
any award or payment in respect of a Condemnation (an "Award") and to make any
compromise or settlement in connection with such Condemnation. Notwithstanding
any Condemnation (or any transfer made in lieu of or in anticipation of such a
Condemnation), Borrower shall continue to pay the Debt at the time and in the
manner provided for in the Loan Documents, and the Debt shall not be reduced
unless and until any Award shall have been actually received and applied by
Lender to expenses of collecting the Award and to discharge of the Debt. Lender
shall not be limited to the interest paid on the Award by the condemning
authority but shall be entitled to receive out of the Award interest at the rate
or rates provided in the Note. Subject to Section 7.4, Borrower and Manager
shall cause any Award that is payable to Borrower or Manager to be paid directly
to Lender. Lender shall hold such Award in the Casualty/Condemnation Subaccount
and disburse such Award in accordance with the terms hereof.
7.4 Application of Proceeds or Award.
7.4.1 Application to Restoration; Procedure for Application to
Restoration. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Sections 7.2
and 7.3, Lender agrees that Lender shall make the Proceeds or the Award (other

Borrower for repair, restoration and replacement of the Improvements, Equipment
and Inventory damaged or taken on the following terms and subject to Manager's

satisfaction Borrower's and/or Manager's ability to pay the Debt relating to the

cannot reasonably be cured within such 30 Business Day period, and Borrower
or Manager shall have commenced to cure such Default within such 30
Business Day period and thereafter diligently and expeditiously proceeds to
cure the same, such 30 Business Day period shall be extended for an
additional period of time as is reasonably necessary for Borrower and/or
Manager in the exercise of due diligence to cure such Default, such
additional period not to exceed one hundred twenty (120) days; provided,
further, if Borrower or Manager provides to Lender a certificate certifying
and demonstrating that Borrower or Manager is diligently attempting to cure
such default as determined by Lender in its reasonable discretion and such
non-monetary default still is capable of being cured as determined by
Lender in its reasonable discretion and if Borrower or Manager, as
applicable, is diligently attempting to cure such default, as determined by
Lender in its reasonable discretion, such period shall be extended by
Lender in its reasonable discretion for an additional period of time not to
exceed sixty (60) days.
8.2 Remedies.
8.2.1 Acceleration. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default
and during the continuance thereof (other than an Event of Default described in
paragraph (h) or (i) of Section 8.1), in addition to any other rights or
remedies available to it pursuant to the Loan Documents or at law or in equity,
and without limitation, Lender may take such action, without notice or demand,
that Lender deems advisable to protect and enforce its rights against Borrower
and Manager and in and to the Property, including declaring the Debt to be
immediately due and payable; and upon any Event of Default described in
paragraph (h) or (i) of Section 8.1, the Debt shall immediately and
automatically become due and payable, without notice or demand, and Borrower and
Manager hereby expressly waives any such notice or demand, anything contained in
any Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding.
8.2.2 Remedies Cumulative. Upon the occurrence of an Event of
Default and during the continuance thereof , all or any one or more of the
rights, powers, privileges and other remedies available to Lender against
Borrower and Manager under the Loan Documents or at law or in equity may be
exercised by Lender at any time and from time to time, whether or not all or any
of the Debt shall be declared due and payable, and whether or not Lender shall
have commenced any foreclosure proceeding or other action for the enforcement of
its rights and remedies under any of the Loan Documents. Any such actions taken
by Lender shall be cumulative and concurrent and may be pursued independently,
singly, successively, together or otherwise, at such time and in such order as
Lender may determine in its discretion, to the fullest extent permitted by law,
without impairing or otherwise affecting the other rights and remedies
1
106
of Lender permitted by law, equity or contract or as set forth in the Loan
Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Borrower and
Manager agree that if an Event of Default is continuing, (i) to the extent
permitted by applicable law, Lender is not subject to any "one action" or
"election of remedies" law or rule, and (ii) all liens and other rights,
remedies or privileges provided to Lender shall remain in full force and effect
until Lender has exhausted all of its remedies against the Property, the
Mortgage has been foreclosed, the Property has been sold and/or otherwise
realized upon in satisfaction of the Debt or the Debt has been paid in full. To
the extent permitted by applicable law, nothing contained in any Loan Document
shall be construed as requiring Lender to resort to any portion of the Property
for the satisfaction of any of the Debt in preference or priority to any other
portion, and Lender may seek satisfaction out of the entire Property or any part
thereof, in its discretion.
8.2.3 Lender's Right to Perform. If Borrower or Manager fails
to perform any covenant or obligation contained herein and such failure shall
continue beyond any applicable grace period and thereafter continue for a period
of five (5) Business Days after Borrower's or Manager's, as applicable, receipt
of written notice thereof from Lender, without in any way limiting Sections 8.1
and 8.3 hereof, Lender may, but shall have no obligation to, itself perform, or
cause performance of, such covenant or obligation, and the expenses of Lender
incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by Borrower and Manager to
Lender within ten (10) calendar days after written demand therefor.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender shall have no obligation to send notice to
Borrower or Manager of any such failure.
8.2.4 Severance. Lender shall have the right from time to time
to sever the Note and the other Loan Documents into one or more separate notes,
mortgages and other security documents in such denominations as Lender shall
determine in its discretion for purposes of evidencing and enforcing its rights
and remedies, provided such action has no adverse economic effect on Borrower or
Manager. Borrower shall, at Lender's expense, execute and deliver to Lender from
time to time, promptly after the request of Lender, a severance agreement and
such other documents as Lender shall request in order to effect the severance
described in the preceding sentence, all in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to Lender. Borrower hereby absolutely and irrevocably appoints
Lender as its true and lawful attorney, coupled with an interest, in its name
and stead to make and execute all documents necessary or desirable to effect
such severance, Borrower ratifying all that such attorney shall do by virtue
thereof.
8.2.5 Delay. 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 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 one Default or Event of Default shall not be construed to
be a waiver of any subsequent Default or Event of Default or to impair any
remedy, right or power consequent thereon.
8.3 Manager's Limited Right to Cure. Notwithstanding anything in this
Agreement or the Loan Documents to the contrary, if a non-monetary Event of
Default occurs
1
107
and is continuing with respect to Borrower, Lender shall, prior to exercising
its rights under this Article VIII, allow Manager to cure such Event of Default
pursuant to provisions contained in subsections (a) through (c) below, provided
that such Event of Default is not caused directly or indirectly by Manager and
no other Event of Default exists with respect to Manager. For purposes of this
Section 8.3, a "non-monetary" Event of Default means any Event of Default which
cannot be cured solely by the payment of money to Lender. Lender's forbearance
obligations and Manager's cure rights under such circumstances shall be as
follows:
(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Subsection 8.3(b)
below, Lender shall give Manager written notice of such Event of Default and of
Lender's intent to exercise its rights and remedies under this Article VIII and
Lender shall initially forbear from exercising its rights and remedies under
this Article VIII until the earlier to occur of (i) (x) prior to the date on
which the Property achieves a Debt Service Coverage Ratio of 1.0x for a
continuous period of six (6) months, the date which is twenty-five (25) days
after delivery of such written notice and (y) after the date on which the
Property achieves a Debt Service Coverage Ratio of 1.0x for a continuous period
of six (6) months, the date which is forty-five (45) days after delivery of such
written notice, (ii) the occurrence of an Event of Default with respect to
Manager and (iii) the occurrence of an Event of Default, other than a
non-monetary Event of Default.
(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Subsection 8.3(a)
above, Lender shall not exercise its rights under this Article VIII in
connection with the applicable non-monetary Event of Default, if prior to the
date specified in subsection (a)(i) above, the following applicable events and
conditions shall have occurred or been satisfied; (i) the Manager or its nominee
or assignee (provided same have been previously approved by Lender) has acquired
fee simple title to the Property, assumed all of the obligations of the Borrower
under the Loan Documents and has executed and delivered such other documentation
as may be required by Lender and, if the Loan has been transferred in a
Securitization, the Rating Agencies, (ii) if the Loan has been transferred in a
Securitization, the Rating Agencies shall have confirmed in writing that such
transfer shall not result in a downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of any
securities issued in connection with such Securitization, (iii) satisfactory
opinions relating to such transfer shall have been delivered by Manager to
Lender and, if the Loan has been transferred in a Securitization, to the Rating
Agencies (including without limitation tax and bankruptcy opinions), (iv) to the
extent curable, Manager shall have cured such non-monetary Event of Default, (v)
Manager pays all reasonable expenses incurred by Lender in connection with such
transfer, (vi) Manager shall have delivered to Lender an updated Title Insurance
Policy showing fee simple title to the Property in Manager and insuring that
Lender has a valid first lien on the Manager's fee simple interest in the
Property together with such modifications, amendments or supplements to the Loan
Documents as Lender may reasonably request. Upon consummation of the transfer of
fee simple title in the Property to Manager or its nominee or assignee
1
108
(provided same have been previously approved by Lender) and the assignment
by Borrower and assumption by the Manager or its nominee or assignee (provided
same have been previously approved by Lender) of the Borrower's obligations
under the Loan Documents executed by Borrower, Manager shall be considered the
"Borrower" under the Loan Documents as well as the "Manager" under the Loan
Documents and shall have all of the obligations of "Borrower" under the Loan
Documents as well as the obligations of "Manager" under the Loan Documents.
(c) If the conditions required for Lender's forbearance contained in
Section 8.3 are not satisfied, then Lender shall be entitled to exercise all of
its rights and remedies pursuant to this Article VIII without providing any
forbearance or cure rights pursuant to this Section 8.3.
IX. SPECIAL PROVISIONS
9.1 Sale of Note and Securitization.
9.1.1 Cooperation. At Lender's request (to the extent not
already required to be provided by Borrower and Manager under this Agreement),
Borrower and Manager shall use reasonable efforts to satisfy the market
standards to which Lender customarily adheres or which may be reasonably
required in the marketplace or by the Rating Agencies in connection with the
sale of the Note or participation therein or the first successful securitization
(such sale and/or securitization, the "Securitization") of rated single or
multi-class securities (the "Securities") secured by or evidencing ownership
interests in the Note and the Mortgage. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, Borrower and Manager shall:
(a) (i) provide such financial and other information with respect to the
Property, Borrower and its Affiliates, Manager and its Affiliates and any
tenants of the Property, (ii) provide business plans and budgets relating to the
Property and (iii) perform or permit or cause to be performed or permitted such
site inspection, appraisals, market studies, environmental reviews and reports
(Phase I's and, if appropriate, Phase II's), engineering reports and other due
diligence investigations of the Property, as may be reasonably requested by
Lender or the Rating Agencies or as may be necessary or appropriate in
connection with the Securitization (the items provided to Lender pursuant to
this paragraph (a) being called the "Provided Information"), together, if
customary, with appropriate verification of and/or consents to the Provided
Information through letters of auditors or opinions of counsel of independent
attorneys acceptable to Lender and the Rating Agencies;
(b) at Borrower's or Manager's expense, as the case may be, cause counsel
to render opinions as to non-consolidation, fraudulent conveyance, true sale and
true contribution and any other opinion customary in securitization transactions
with respect to the Property, Borrower and its Affiliates, Manager and its
Affiliates, which counsel and opinions shall be reasonably satisfactory to
Lender and the Rating Agencies;
1
109
(c) make such representations and warranties as of the closing date of the
Securitization with respect to the Property, Borrower, Manager and the Loan
Documents as are customarily provided in securitization transactions and as may
be reasonably requested by Lender or the Rating Agencies and consistent with the
facts covered by such representations and warranties as they exist on the date
thereof, including the representations and warranties made in the Loan
Documents;
(d) provide current certificates of good standing and qualification with
respect to Borrower from appropriate Governmental Authorities; and
(e) execute such amendments to the Loan Documents, Borrower's
organizational documents, Manager's organizational documents and enter into a
lock-box or similar arrangement with respect to the Rents and establish and fund
such reserve funds (including reserve funds for deferred maintenance and capital
improvements) as may be requested by Lender or the Rating Agencies or otherwise
to effect the Securitization, provided that nothing contained in this subsection
(e) shall result in an economic change in the overall transaction.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan
Documents, Borrower and/or Manager shall be required to reimburse Lender for the
pro rata portion of all reasonable third party costs and expenses incurred by
Lender in connection with a Securitization (or any attempt to securitize the
Loan) which are attributable to Borrower and/or Manager complying with requests
made under this Section 9.1, up to a maximum aggregate amount equal to 37.5
basis points of the original Principal, which Borrower shall deposit with Lender
in the Securitization Expense Subaccount of the Deposit Account on the
Conversion Date. If Lender fails to use all the funds in the Securitization
Expense Subaccount, provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing,
Lender (or Servicer) shall refund such remaining funds as directed by Manager
with interest earned thereon, if any.
9.1.2 Use of Information. Borrower and Manager understand that
certain of the Provided Information and the Required Records may be included in
disclosure documents in connection with the Securitization, including a
prospectus or private placement memorandum (each, a "Disclosure Document") and
may also be included in filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission
pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), or
the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), or
provided or made available to investors or prospective investors in the
Securities, the Rating Agencies, and service providers relating to the
Securitization. In the event that the Disclosure Document is required to be
revised prior to the sale of all Securities, Borrower and Manager shall
cooperate with Lender in updating the Provided Information or Required Records
for inclusion or summary in the Disclosure Document by providing all current
information pertaining to Borrower, Manager and the Property necessary to keep
the Disclosure Document accurate and complete in all material respects with
respect to such matters.
1
110
9.1.3 Borrower and Manager Obligations Regarding Disclosure
Documents. In connection with a preliminary and a final private placement or
prospectus, as applicable, Borrower and Manager agree:
(a) if requested by Lender, subject to Section 10.1 herein, to certify in
writing that Borrower or Manager, as the case may be, has carefully examined
those portions of such memorandum or prospectus, as applicable, pertaining to
Borrower or Manager, as the case may be, the Property and the Loan, including
applicable portions of the sections entitled "Special Considerations",
"Description of the Mortgages", "Description of the Mortgage Loans and Mortgaged
Property", "The Manager", "The Borrower" and "Certain Legal Aspects of the
Mortgage Loan", and such sections (and any other sections reasonably requested
and pertaining to Borrower or Manager, as the case may be, the Property or the
Loan) do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a
material fact necessary in order to make the statements made, in the light of
the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, provided, however,
that neither Borrower nor Manager shall be required to indemnify Lender for any
losses relating to untrue statements or omissions which Borrower or Manager
identified to Lender in writing at the time of Borrower's or Manager's
examination of such memorandum or prospectus, as applicable;
(b) to indemnify Lender and the Affiliates of Nomura Securities
International, Inc. ("Nomura"), that have filed the registration statement
relating to the Securitization (the "Registration Statement"), each of its
directors, each of its officers who have signed the Registration Statement and
each person or entity who controls Nomura within the meaning of Section 15 of
the Securities Act or Section 30 of the Exchange Act of 1933, as amended
(collectively, the "Nomura Group"), and Nomura, each of its directors and each
person who controls Nomura, within the meaning of Sec tion 15 of the Securities
Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act (collectively, the "Underwriter Group")
for any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, other than those relating to
untrue statements or omissions which Borrower or Manager identified to Lender in
writing at the time of Borrower's or Manager's examination of such memorandum or
prospectus as applicable (collectively, the "Liabilities") to which Lender, the
Nomura Group or the Underwriter Group may become subject insofar as the
Liabilities arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged
untrue statement of any material fact contained in the applicable portions of
such sections applicable to Borrower or Manager, as the case may be, the
Property or the Loan, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged
omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated in the
applicable portions of such sections or necessary in order to make the
statements in the applicable portions of such sections or in light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, provided, however,
that Manager shall have had an opportunity to review and comment upon the
relevant portions of such documents and Manager's comments thereon have been
incorporated therein or otherwise been addressed to Manager's reasonable
satisfaction; and
1
111
(c) to reimburse Lender and Nomura for any legal or other expenses
reasonably incurred by Lender and Nomura in connection with investigating or
defending the Liabilities.
Borrower's and Manager's Liability, as the case may be, under clause (a) or (b)
above shall be limited to Liabilities arising out of or based upon any such
untrue statement or omission made therein in reliance upon and in conformity
with information furnished to Lender by or on behalf of Borrower or Manager, as
the case may be, in connection with the preparation of those portions of the
Disclosure Document pertaining to Borrower or Manager, as the case may be, the
Property or the Loan or in connection with the underwriting of the debt,
including financial statements of Borrower or Manager, as the case may be,
operating statements, rent rolls, environmental site assessment reports and
property condition reports with respect to the Property. The foregoing indemnity
will be in addition to any liability which Borrower may otherwise have.
9.1.4 Borrower Indemnity Regarding Filings. In connection with
filings under the Exchange Act, Borrower agrees to (i) indemnify Lender, the
Nomura Group and the Underwriter Group for any Liabilities to which Lender, the
Nomura Group or the Underwriter Group may become subject insofar as the
Liabilities arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to
state in the Provided Information or Required Records a material fact required
to be stated in the Provided Information or Required Records in order to make
the statements in the Provided Information or Required Records, in light of the
circumstances under which they were made not misleading and (ii) reimburse
Lender or Nomura for any reasonable legal or other expenses reasonably incurred
by Lender and Nomura in connection with defending or investigating the
Liabilities.
9.1.5 Indemnification Procedure. Promptly after receipt by an
indemnified party under Section 9.1.3 or 9.1.4 of notice of the commencement of
any action for which a claim for indemnification is to be made against Borrower,
such indemnified party shall notify Borrower or Manager, as applicable, in
writing of such commencement, but the omission to so notify the Borrower or
Manager, as applicable, will not relieve Borrower or Manager, as applicable,
from any liability that it may have to any indemnified party hereunder except to
the extent that failure to notify causes prejudice to Borrower or Manager, as
applicable. In the event that any action is brought against any indemnified
party, and it notifies Borrower or Manager, as applicable, of the commencement
thereof, Borrower or Manager, as applicable, will be entitled, jointly with any
other indemnifying party, to participate therein and, to the extent that it (or
they) may elect by written notice delivered to the indemnified party promptly
after receiving the aforesaid notice of commencement, to assume the defense
thereof with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party. After notice from
Borrower or Manager, as applicable, to such indemnified party under this Section
9.1.5, Borrower or Manager, as applicable, shall not be responsible for any
legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in
connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of
investigation; provided, however, if the defendants in any such action include
both Borrower or Manager, as applicable, and an indemnified party, and any
indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there
1
112
are any legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties that are
different from or additional to those available to Borrower or Manager, as
applicable, then the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select
separate counsel to assert such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in
the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties.
Borrower or Manager, as applicable, shall not be liable for the expenses of more
than one separate counsel unless there are legal defenses available to it that
are different from or additional to those available to another indemnified
party.
9.1.6 Contribution. In order to provide for just and equitable
contribution in circumstances in which the indemnity agreement provided for in
Section 9.1.3 or 9.1.4 is for any reason held to be unenforceable by an
indemnified party in respect of any Liabilities (or action in respect thereof)
referred to therein which would otherwise be indemnifiable under Sec tion 9.1.3
or 9.1.4, Borrower and/or Manager shall contribute to the amount paid or payable
by the indemnified party as a result of such Liabilities (or action in respect
thereof); provided, however, that no Person guilty of fraudulent
misrepresentation (within the meaning of Sec tion 11(f) of the Securities Act)
shall be entitled to contribution from any Person not guilty of such fraudulent
misrepresentation. In determining the amount of contribution to which the
respective parties are entitled, the following factors shall be considered: (i)
the Nomura Group's, Borrower's, and Manager's relative knowledge and access to
information concerning the matter with respect to which the claim was asserted;
(ii) the opportunity to correct and prevent any statement or omission; and (iii)
any other equitable considerations appropriate in the circumstances. Lender,
Borrower and Manager hereby agree that it may not be equitable if the amount of
such contribution were determined by pro rata or per capita allocation.
9.1.7 Rating Surveillance. Lender will retain the Rating
Agencies to provide rating surveillance services on Securities. Subject to the
limitation contained in the last paragraph of Section 9.1.1, the pro rata share
of such rating surveillance will be at the expense of Borrower.
X. MISCELLANEOUS
10.1 Exculpation. Except as otherwise set forth in this
Agreement to the contrary, Lender shall not enforce the liability and obligation
of Borrower or Manager to perform and observe the obligations contained in this
Agreement, the Note, the Mortgage or any of the other Loan Documents executed
and delivered by Borrower and/or Manager except that Lender may pursue any power
of sale, bring a foreclosure action, action for specific performance, action for
money judgment, or other appropriate action or proceeding (including, without
limitation, to obtain a deficiency judgment) against Borrower or Manager or any
other Person solely for the purpose of enabling Lender to realize upon (a) the
Collateral, and (b) the Rents and Accounts arising from the Property to the
extent (x) (i) received by Borrower (or any of its affiliates), after the
occurrence of an Event of Default or (ii) received by Manager (or any of their
affiliates), after the occurrence of an Event of Default or (y) distributed to
(i) Borrower or its shareholders, partners, members or beneficial owners, as
applicable, or affiliates during or with respect to any period for which Lender
did not receive the full amounts it was entitled to
1
113
receive as repayments of the Loan pursuant to Section II or (ii) Manager, or its
shareholders, partners, members or beneficial owners, as applicable, or
affiliates during or with respect to any period for which Lender did not receive
the full amounts it was entitled to receive as repayments of the Loan pursuant
to Section II (all Rents and Accounts covered by clauses (x) and (y) being
hereinafter referred to as the "Recourse Distributions") and (c) any other
collateral given to Lender under the Loan Documents or those Other Loan
Documents which are the subject of cross-collateralization and cross-default
pursuant to Section 10.31, if any, ((a), (b), and (c) collectively, the "Default
Collateral"); provided, however, that any judgment in any such action or
proceeding shall be enforceable only to the extent of any such Default
Collateral.
The provisions of this Section 10.1 shall not, however, (a) impair the validity
of the Debt (as defined herein and in any Other Loan Agreement which evidences
any Other Loan which is cross-collateralized and cross-defaulted with the Loan
pursuant to Section 10.31, if any) evidenced by the Loan Documents or those
Other Loan Documents which evidence any Other Loan which is cross-collateralized
and cross-defaulted with the Loan pursuant Section 10.31, if any or in any way
affect or impair the Liens (as defined herein and in any Other Loan Agreement
which evidences any Other Loan which is cross-collateralized and cross-defaulted
with the Loan pursuant to Section 10.31, if any) of the Mortgage or any of the
other Loan Documents or those Other Loan Documents which evidence an Other Loan
which is cross-collateralized and cross-defaulted with the Loan pursuant to
Section 10.31, if any, or the right of Lender to foreclose the Mortgage (as
defined herein and in any Other Loan Agreement which evidences any Other Loan
which is cross-collateralized and cross-defaulted with the Loan pursuant to
Section 10.31, if any) following an Event of Default (as defined herein and in
any Loan Agreement which evidences any Other Loan which is cross-collateralized
and cross-defaulted with the Loan pursuant to Section 10.31, if any); (b) impair
the right of Lender to name any Person as a party defendant in any action or
suit for judicial foreclosure and sale under the Mortgage (as defined herein and
in any Other Loan Agreement which evidences any Other Loan which is
cross-collateralized and cross-defaulted with the Loan pursuant to Section
10.31, if any); (c) affect the validity or enforceability of the Note, the

506(a), 506(b), 1111(b) or any other provisions of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code to
file a claim for the full amount of the Debt or to require that all collateral

Borrower, Manager, and Lender hereby agree to indemnify and hold each other
harmless from and against any and all claims, liabilities, costs and expenses of
any kind in any way relating to or arising from a claim by any Person that such
Person acted on behalf of the indemnifying party in connection with the
transactions contemplated herein. The provisions of this Section 10.3 shall
survive the expiration and termination of this Agreement and the repayment of
the Debt.
10.4 Retention of Servicer. Lender reserves the right to
retain the Servicer to act as its agent hereunder with such powers as are
specifically delegated to the Servicer by Lender, whether pursuant to the terms
of this Agreement, the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Deposit Account

incidental thereto. Borrower or Manager shall pay any reasonable fees and
expenses of the Servicer in connection with a Defeasance, release of the
Property, assumption or modification of the Loan or enforcement of the Loan
Documents.
10.5 Survival. This Agreement and all covenants, agreements,
representations and warranties made herein and in the certificates delivered
pursuant hereto shall survive the making by Lender of the Loan and the execution
and delivery to Lender of the Note, and shall continue in full force and effect
so long as all or any of the Debt is unpaid. All Borrower's and Manager's
covenants and agreements in this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the
respective legal representatives, successors and assigns of Lender. The
provisions of the BLA shall survive the completion of the Required Improvements;
provided, however, upon the occurrence of the Conversion Date all of the terms
and provisions of the BLA shall be of no further force and effect (except to the
extent that certain definitions contained herein and
1
116
incorporated by reference in any other Loan Documents continue to be operative
in such other Loan Documents), the BLA shall terminate and this Agreement shall
constitute and operate as the sole loan agreement governing the operation and
administration of the Loan.
10.6 Lender's Discretion. Whenever pursuant to this Agreement
or any other Loan Document, Lender exercises any right of election, consent, or
any right given to it to make such election, give such consent, approve or
disapprove, or any arrangement or term is to be satisfactory to Lender, the
decision of Lender to approve or disapprove or to decide whether arrangements or
terms are satisfactory or not satisfactory shall (except as is otherwise
specifically herein provided) be in the discretion of Lender and shall be final
and conclusive.

amendment, extension, discharge, termination or waiver of any provision of this
Agreement or of any other Loan Document, nor consent to any departure by
Borrower or Manager therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same

the purpose, for which given. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no
notice to or demand on Borrower or Manager shall entitle Borrower or Manager to
any other or future notice or demand in the same, similar or other

10.9 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
hereunder, or under any other Loan Document, 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 the Loan
1
118
Documents, or to declare a Default for failure to effect prompt payment of any
such other amount.

INTENDED TO ENCOMPASS INDIVIDUALLY EACH INSTANCE AND EACH ISSUE AS TO WHICH THE
RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY WOULD OTHERWISE ACCRUE. EACH PARTY IS HEREBY AUTHORIZED

THIS WAIVER BY THE OTHER.
10.11 Headings. The Section headings and Table of Contents in
this Agreement are included herein for convenience of reference only and shall
not constitute a part of this Agreement for any other purpose.
10.12 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.
10.13 Preferences. Lender shall have no obligation to marshal
any assets in favor of Borrower or Manager or any other party or against or in
payment of any or all Obligations of Borrower or Manager pursuant to this
Agreement, the Note, or any other Loan Document. Lender shall have the
continuing and exclusive right to apply or reverse and reapply any and all
payments by Borrower to any portion of Borrower's or Manager's Obligations
hereunder, including the Debt. To the extent Borrower makes a payment to Lender,
or Lender receives proceeds of any collateral, which is in whole or part
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 Debt 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.
10.14 Waiver of Notice. Neither Borrower nor Manager shall be
entitled to any notices of any nature whatsoever from Lender except with respect
to matters for which this Agreement or any other Loan Document specifically and
expressly provides for the giving of notice by Lender to Borrower or Manager, as
the case may be, and except with respect to matters for which Borrower or
Manager is not, pursuant to applicable Legal Requirements, permitted to
1
119
waive the giving of notice. To the maximum extent permitted by Legal
Requirements, Borrower and Manager hereby expressly waive the right to receive
any notice from Lender with respect to any matter for which no Loan Document
specifically and expressly provides for the giving of notice by Lender to
Borrower or Manager, as the case may be.
10.15 Remedies of Borrower. If a claim or adjudication is made
that Lender or its agent, including Servicer, 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, including
Servicer, shall be liable for any monetary damages (except for Lender's
obligations to fund all Advances pursuant to the BLA), and Borrower's sole
remedy shall be to commence an action seeking (i) injunctive relief, declaratory
judgment or specific performance or (ii) to enforce its rights under the Loan
Documents (including the BLA). Any action or proceeding to determine whether
Lender has acted reasonably shall be determined by an action (i) seeking
declaratory judgment or (ii) to enforce its rights under the Loan Documents
(including the BLA).
10.16 Prior Agreements. This Agreement, the other Loan
Documents, and Section 2.1 of the Master Financing Facility Agreement contain
the entire agreement of the parties hereto and thereto in respect of the
transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and all prior agreements among or
between such parties, whether oral or written, are superseded by the terms of
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
10.17 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 that are unrelated to the Loan
Documents which Borrower may otherwise have against any assignor of such
documents, and no such unrelated offset, counterclaim or defense shall be
interposed or asserted by Borrower in any action or proceeding brought by any
such assignee upon such 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.
10.18 Publicity. Except as otherwise required by applicable
Legal Requirements, Borrower may not advertise or issue promotional materials
describing Lender's participation in the Loan or the inclusion of the Loan in
any Securitization without the prior consent of Lender. Lender may, without
Borrower's consent, issue press releases, advertisements or other promotional
materials describing Lender's participation in the origination of the Loan or
the Loan's inclusion in any Securitization effectuated or to be effectuated by
Lender.
10.19 No Usury. Borrower and Lender intend at all times to
comply with applicable state law or applicable United States federal law (to the
extent that it permits Lender to contract for, charge, take, reserve or receive
a greater amount of interest than under state law) and that this Section 10.19
shall control every other agreement in the Loan Documents. If the
1
120
applicable law (state or federal) is ever judicially interpreted so as to render
usurious any amount called for under the Note or any other Loan Document, or
contracted for, charged, taken, reserved or received with respect to the Debt,
or if Lender's exercise of the option to accelerate the maturity of the Loan or
any prepayment by Borrower results in Borrower having paid any interest in
excess of that permitted by applicable law, then it is Borrower's and Lender's
express intent that all excess amounts theretofore collected by Lender shall be
credited against the unpaid Principal and all other Debt (or, if the Debt has
been or would thereby be paid in full, refunded to Borrower), and the provisions
of the Loan Documents immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter
collectible thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any
new document, so as to comply with the applicable law, but so as to permit the
recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for thereunder. All sums paid or
agreed to be paid to Lender for the use, forbearance or detention of the Loan
shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated,
allocated, and spread throughout the full stated term of the Loan until payment
in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Debt does not
exceed the maximum lawful rate from time to time in effect and applicable to the
Debt for so loan as the Debt is outstanding. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in any Loan Document, it is not the intention of Lender to
accelerate the maturity of any interest that has not accrued at the time of such
acceleration or to collect unearned interest at the time of such acceleration.
10.20 Conflict; Construction of Documents. Borrower and
Manager agree that the Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents shall be
made subject to all the terms, covenants, conditions, obligations, stipulations
and agreements contained in this Agreement to the same extent and effect as if
fully set forth in and made a part of the Initial Note, the Mortgage and the
other Loan Documents. If there is a conflict between the terms of this Agreement
and other Loan Documents, then the terms, covenants and conditions of this
Agreement shall prevail. The information set forth on the cover, and recitals
hereof and the Exhibits attached hereto are hereby incorporated herein as a part
of this Agreement with the same effect as set forth in the body hereof. 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 that drafted them.
10.21 No Third Party Beneficiaries. The Loan Documents are
solely for the benefit of Lender, the Borrower and the Manager and nothing
contained in any Loan Document shall be deemed to confer upon anyone other than
Lender, the Borrower and the Manager any right to insist upon or to enforce the
performance or observance of any of the obligations contained therein.
10.22 Assignment. Lender shall have the right to assign in
whole or in part this Agreement and/or any of the other Loan Documents and the
obligations hereunder or thereunder to any Person and to participate all or any
portion of the Loan evidenced hereby, including without limitation, any servicer
or trustee in connection with a Securitization; provided, however, that no such
assignment shall increase, decrease or otherwise affect either
1
121
Lender's, Borrower's or Manager's obligations under this Agreement or any of the
other Loan Documents. Lender shall provide Borrower with written notice of any
such assignment; provided, however, that such notice shall not be a condition of
Lender's right to assign this Agreement and/or any of the Loan Documents and the
failure to deliver such notice shall not constitute a default under this Loan
Agreement.
10.23 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.
10.24 No Joint Venture or Partnership. Borrower and Lender
intend that the relationship created hereunder be solely that of borrower and
lender. Manager and Lender intend that the relationship created hereunder be
solely that of manager and lender. Nothing herein is intended to create a joint
venture, partnership, tenancy-in-common, or joint tenancy relationship between
Borrower and Lender, between Manager and Lender, or between Guarantor and Lender
nor to grant Lender any interest in the Property other than that of mortgagee or
lender.
10.25 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 others with interests in 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 Debt without any prior or different resort for collection, or the right
of Lender to the payment of the Debt in preference to every other claimant
whatsoever.
10.26 Waiver of Counterclaim. Borrower and Manager hereby
waive the right to assert a counterclaim, other than compulsory counterclaim, in
any action or proceeding brought against Borrower or Manager, as applicable, by
Lender or Lender's agents.
10.27 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any
number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an
original, but all of which shall together constitute one and the same
instrument.
10.28 Bankruptcy Waiver. Borrower and Manager hereby agree
that, in consideration of the recitals and mutual covenants contained herein,
and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of
which are hereby acknowledged, in the event Borrower or Manager shall (i) file
with any bankruptcy court of competent jurisdiction or be the subject of any
petition under Title 11 of the U.S. Code, as amended, (ii) be the subject of any
order for relief issued under Title 11 of the U.S. Code, as amended, (iii) file
or be the subject of any petition seeking any reorganization, arrangement,
composition,
1
122
readjustment, liquidation, dissolution or similar relief under any present or
law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or other relief of debtors, (iv) have
sought or consented to or acquiesced in the appointment of any trustee,
receiver, conservator or liquidator or (v) be the subject of any order,
judgement or decree entered by any court of competent jurisdiction approving a
petition filed against such party for any reorganization, arrangement,
composition, readjustment, liquidation, dissolution or similar relief under any
present or future federal or state act or law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency
or other relief for debtors, the automatic stay provided by the Federal
Bankruptcy Code shall be modified and annulled as to Lender, so as to permit
Lender to exercise any and all of its remedies, upon request of Lender made on
notice to Borrower and/or Manager, as the case may be, and any other party in
interest but without the need of further proof or hearing. Borrower, Manager and
any of their Affiliates shall not contest the enforceability of this Section.
10.29 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
prior agreements, understandings and negotiations between the parties.
10.30 Borrower Acknowledgments. Lender, Borrower and Manager
hereby acknowledge and agree that (i) the scope of Lender's, Borrower's and
Manager's respective business is wide and includes, but is not limited to,
financing, real estate financing, investment in real estate and other real
estate transactions which may be viewed as adverse to or competitive with the
respective business of Lender, Borrower, Manager or their Affiliates and (ii)
Lender, Borrower and Manager have been represented by competent legal counsel
and has consulted with such counsel prior to executing this Loan Agreement and
any of the other Loan Documents.
10.31 Waiver of "One Action" Rule; Cross Collateralizations.
(a) The Loan has been made by Lender pursuant to the Master Financing
Facility Agreement. The Master Financing Facility Agreement contemplates that
one (1) or more other loans (the "Other Loans") made to Other Borrowers pursuant
to the Master Financing Facility Agreement will, at Lender's election, be cross
collateralized and cross defaulted with the Loan and with each other, subject to
Section (b) below. In such event, such Other Loans will be secured by the
Property and the Collateral, and the Loan will be secured by the other
properties and other collateral serving as primary security for such Other Loans
(the "Other Properties"), subject to Section (b) below.
(b) Borrower hereby agrees that (x) with respect to the obligations of any
Other Borrower under any Other Loan made pursuant to the Master Financing
Facility Agreement, such Other Borrower's obligations shall be
cross-collateralized and cross-defaulted with the Loan until the earlier of (i)
the date on which any such Other Loan or the Loan has been converted pursuant to
the terms of the relevant Other Loan Agreement or this Agreement, as applicable,
and transferred in a Securitization for loans which have stabilized of which the
1
123
Loan or applicable Other Loans are not a part (i.e., the Loan and any Other
Loans are in different Securitization Pools) and (ii) Lender's election to
release the cross-default and the cross-collateralization and (y) the Loan shall
be cross-defaulted and cross-collateralized with any Other Loan which is
included in the same Securitization (as defined in this Agreement and in the
relevant Other Loan Agreement) as the Loan. During the term of any cross-default
and cross-collateralization and with respect to those Other Loans which are the
subject of such cross-default and cross-collateralization, without limitation to
any other right or remedy provided to Lender in this Agreement, the BLA, the
Master Financing Facility Agreement, or any of the other Loan Documents,
Borrower acknowledges and agrees that, to the full extent permitted under
applicable law, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (i) Lender shall have
the right to pursue all of its rights and remedies in one proceeding, or
separately and independently in separate proceedings which it, as Lender, in its
discretion, shall determine form time to time, (ii) Lender is not required to
either xxxxxxxx assets, sell the Property or any Other Property in any inverse
order of alienation, or be subjected to any "one action" or "election of
remedies" law or rule, (iii) the exercise by Lender of any remedies against the
Property or any Other Property, will not impede Lender from subsequently or
simultaneously exercising remedies against any other Property, (iv) all Liens
and other rights, remedies and privileges provided to Lender in this Agreement,
and in the other Loan Documents (except to the extent such documents have
terminated or expired pursuant to their terms) or otherwise shall remain in full
force and effect until Lender has exhausted all of its remedies against the
Property and all Other Properties have been foreclosed, sold and/or otherwise
realized upon and (v) the Property and all the Other Properties under the Master
Financing Facility Agreement shall be security for the performance of all of
Borrower's Obligations hereunder.
10.32 Segregated Pool Properties. (a) Lender may, at any time,
and from time to time, by giving written notice to Borrower Sponsor, Borrower
Representative, Manager, Guarantor, Borrower, and/or any Other Borrower that
will be affected thereby, divide the Loans made pursuant to the Master Financing
Facility Agreement into two (2) or more groupings (each a "Segregated Pool"),
for the purpose of facilitating a Securitization or other transfer with respect
to one (1) or more Segregated Pools. Loans in the same Segregated Pool will be
cross-defaulted and cross-collateralized only with one another. Lender's notice
shall be given at least sixty (60) days prior to the date selected by Lender for
the Segregated Pools to be created (the "Segregated Pool Date") and shall
specify the Property or Properties to be included in each Segregated Pool (each
a "Segregated Pool Property").
(b) On the Segregated Pool Date, Borrower Sponsor shall cause Borrower,
and/or any Other Borrower that owns a Segregated Pool Property to enter into
such documents as Lender shall reasonably require in order to create the
Segregated Pools and have each Loan cross-defaulted and cross-collateralized
only with other Loans in the same Segregated Pool as the Loan in question,
including, with respect to each Loan amending the applicable Loan Agreement to
exclude as an "Event of Default" thereunder an "Event of Default" relating to
any Loan that is not part of the same Segregated Pool as the Loan in question.

(c) If, on the date Lender gives a notice to create two (2) or more
Segregated Pools, Borrower or any Other Borrower (a "Multi-Property Borrower")
owns Properties that will be in more than one (1) Segregated Pool, then:
(i) not less than thirty (30) days prior to the Segregated
Pool Date, Borrower Sponsor shall form one or more new limited liability
companies or limited partnerships, each of which qualifies as a Borrower under
the definition set forth in the Master Financing Facility Agreement (a "New
Borrower") and deliver to Lender the organizational documents thereof.
(ii) on or before the Segregated Pool Date, each Multi-Property
Borrower shall transfer one (1) or more of its Segregated Pool Properties to one
(1) or more New Borrowers so that no Borrower or New Borrower owns Segregated
Pool Properties in more than one Segregated Pool, and
(iii) on the Segregated Pool Date, each New Borrower will
execute and deliver to Lender (a) the documents that a Borrower must deliver to
Lender pursuant to clauses (i) and (n)(7) of Section 3.1 of the Master Financing
Facility Agreement, (b) an assignment and assumption of the Transaction
Documents relating to its Segregated Pool Property, and (c) such other documents
as shall be reasonably required by Lender, all of which shall be in form and
substance satisfactory to Lender.
10.33 Synthetic Lease. Lender acknowledges that at or prior to
the Securitization of this Loan, Manager may wish to enter into a synthetic
lease financing transaction with another Person with respect to the Property.
Manager must provide Lender with a written request that it wishes to enter into
a synthetic lease financing transaction during the period commencing no sooner
than twelve (12) months prior to the Conversion Date and ending no later than
four (4) months prior to the Conversion Date. Along with such request, Manager
must provide Lender in a timely fashion with any and all information that Lender
reasonably requests in connection with its review and approval of such
transaction. Upon receiving such request, Lender shall notify Manager of
Lender's estimate of all third party costs which Lender reasonably determines it
will incur in connection with such request. Manager will promptly deposit such
estimated amount with Lender and shall be liable for reimbursing Lender for all
actual out of pocket expenses reasonably incurred by Lender in excess of such
deposit with respect to such request. Upon receiving such deposit, Lender will
review and determine, in its discretion, whether the synthetic lease
transaction, as proposed at that time, is acceptable to Lender. Factors which
Lender may consider in its determination shall include the identity of the
proposed synthetic lessor, the proposed synthetic lessor's financial
capabilities, the form of synthetic lease, the proposed lease terms, the
proposed loan terms, the effect such synthetic lease may have on the Loan, the
Property, the priority of Lender's security, Securitization or other similar
transaction or any other information Lender may require (including the affect on
the pricing, timing or any other affect of such transaction). Lender shall act
in good faith but Lender shall have as much time as it reasonably deems
necessary to review and comment on any and all materials and documents presented
to it in connection with any such proposed synthetic lease. Lender is under
absolutely no obligation to agree to or accept any synthetic lease
1
125
structure, any of the proposed terms, or any proposed institutional lender,
which it determines will in any material way adversely affect this Agreement,
this transaction, the Loan, the Property, the priority of Lender's security
interest, or any Securitization of this Loan (including the pricing or timing of
any such Securitization or other similar transaction). If Lender approves such
synthetic lease structure and Borrower is required to convey fee title to the
Property to a third party in connection therewith, Lender will allow such sale
without the payment of any additional transfer fees.
10.34 Termination of Manager's Obligations. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Documents,
Manager's obligations to either Lender or Borrower under this Agreement or any
other Loan Documents (except as otherwise expressly provided for herein or
therein) shall terminate upon the termination of the Management Agreement or the
exercise of the Special Management Agreement Amendment Right (as defined in the
Intercreditor Agreement) by Banc One in accordance with Section 4(c) of the
Intercreditor Agreement and Borrower shall succeed to all of Manager's rights,
duties and obligations under this Agreement. Subject to Section 10.1 of this
Agreement, the foregoing obligations of Manager which have accrued but remain
unsatisfied prior to the termination of the Management Agreement, shall remain
in full force and effect and this Section shall not relieve Manager of such
obligations. Further, if Manager enters into a Synthetic Lease pursuant to
Section 10.33 or exercises any of its rights under the Equity Option Agreement
or the Property Option Agreement, then Manager's obligations shall not terminate
but rather shall remain in full force and effect. If either the Management
Agreement or the Development Agreement terminates prior to Manager entering into
a Synthetic Lease Transaction pursuant to Section 10.33 above, all of the
rights, obligations and duties of Manager under this Loan Agreement and all
other Loan Documents shall belong solely to and be the responsibility of
Borrower.
10.35 Release of Subordinate Mortgage and Other Subordinate
Mortgages. Upon the payment of the Loan in full, Lender will release all Other
Subordinate Mortgages on Other Properties with respect to this Loan and the
Subordinate Mortgage.

SCHEDULE 2
Terms of Preferred Equity
Senior and Junior Tranches: If the amount of the Preferred Equity is more than the Maximum
Senior Amount (as hereinafter defined), then the portion of the
Preferred Equity equal to the Maximum Senior Amount shall be
"Senior Preferred Equity" and the balance of the Preferred Equity
shall be "Junior Preferred Equity". If the amount of the Preferred
Equity is not more than the Maximum Senior Amount, then all of the
Preferred Equity shall, for purposes of this Schedule, be "Senior
Preferred Equity" (and there will be no "Junior Preferred Equity").
The "Maximum Senior Amount" shall be the maximum amount of
Preferred Equity, as determined by Lender (based upon Net
Operating Income for the most recently ended 12-month period prior
to the Conversion Date), that can be repaid, together with the Senior
Preferred Yield (as hereinafter defined), in 60 consecutive constant
monthly payments beginning on the first Payment Date after the
Conversion Date, from 75% of Excess Cash Flow (as hereinafter
defined).
Preferred Yield: The yield on the Senior Preferred Equity (" Senior Preferred Yield")
will accrue and be payable monthly, in arrears, at the annual rate of
LIBOR, reset two (2) Business Days prior to each Payment Date,
plus 500 basis points. The yield on the Junior Preferred Equity ("
Junior Preferred Yield") will accrue and be payable monthly, in
arrears, at the annual rate of LIBOR, reset two (2) Business Days
prior to each Payment Date, plus 700 basis points. Preferred Yield
will be calculated on an actual/360 day basis.
Monthly Payments/
Cash Management: All cash flow after payments and reserves required under the Loan
Documents will be swept into a Subaccount. On each Payment Date,
cash from such Subaccount shall be applied as follows: (i) if there
is Senior Preferred Equity outstanding, to pay all accrued but unpaid
Preferred Yield on such Senior Preferred Equity; (ii) if there is
Senior Preferred Equity outstanding, to redeem the principal balance
outstanding on the Senior Preferred Equity in an amount equal to the
greater of (A) 75% of cash available after payments required by
clause (i) or (B) the Minimum Redemption Amount (as defined
below); (iii) if there is Junior Preferred Equity outstanding, to pay all
accrued but unpaid Preferred Yield on such Junior Preferred Equity;
(iv) if there is Junior Preferred Equity outstanding, all available cash
after the payments required by clauses (i) through (iii) will be applied
1
2-1
to redeem the principal balance outstanding
on the Junior Preferred Equity; and (v) all
available cash after payments required by
the foregoing clauses will be distributed to
Borrower.
The "Minimum Redemption Amount" is an amount
which will be sufficient to amortize the
then outstanding amount of Senior Preferred
Equity over a straight-line 5-year
amortization schedule, rounded to the
nearest $1,000 per annum.
Prepayment: The Preferred Equity may be prepaid, at the election of the Borrower
or Manager, at any time, in whole or in part, without premium,
provided, however that the holder of Preferred Equity must receive
(after applicable payments to the holder of the Loan) the balance of
the Preferred Equity from (i) the proceeds of any sale of the Property,
(ii) any proceeds resulting from a refinancing of the Loan and (iii)
any proceeds from a liquidation of the Loan and (iv) proceeds from
any other source (so long as not secured by the Property). So long as
the Preferred Equity is outstanding, the holder of the Preferred
Equity shall have the right to approve any of the events described in
clauses (i)-(iii) above. The retirement or prepayment of the Senior
Preferred Equity and/or the Junior Preferred Equity shall not affect
Lender's ownership of or title to the Warrants (as defined below).
Fees: A structuring fee equal to two percent (2.0%) of the amount of the
Preferred Equity shall be paid to Lender on the Conversion Date.
Default in Monthly
Payments: If Borrower or Manager fails to pay the Preferred Yield or the
required Minimum Redemption Amount in full on any Payment
Date, then for each succeeding Payment Date, 100% of the Excess
Cash Flow will be applied first to any unpaid Preferred Yield until all
Preferred Yield payments (including accrued and unpaid interest
thereon) have been made current and the remainder to repayment of
the amount of the Preferred Equity. 100% of the Excess Cash Flow
will be applied in this manner until the entire amount of the Preferred
Equity has been paid.
"Excess Cash Flow" means actual Net Operating Income available
after payment of Debt Service and the Preferred Yield.
The Preferred Yield, to the extent not paid
in full when due, will accrue and compound
monthly at the default rate in effect from
time to time. The "default rate" will be the
non-default Senior Preferred Yield or Junior
Preferred Yield, as applicable, plus 200
basis points.
1
2-2
The Preferred Equity will not have an
acceleration right, and will not be
forecloseable. However, in the event of a
default, in addition to the remedies
described above, the holder of the Preferred
Equity will have the option, but not the
obligation, to cause the removal of the
existing Property manager and to designate a
replacement manager.
Security: The Preferred Equity will be secured by an assignment of Excess
Cash Flow, subordinate to any similar assignment to the holder of the
Loan.
Other Terms: The organizational documents of Borrower will be required to
include, among other things, provisions that prohibit the incurrence
of any debt other than the Loan as permitted under the Loan
Documents as well as other affirmative and negative covenants, and
such representations and warranties as Lender may require in its
discretion. The holder of the Preferred Equity will have veto rights
with respect to modifications of the organizational documents and
major decisions relating to Borrower, particularly with respect to
refinancings and Property transfers prior to the retirement in full of
the Preferred Equity. The holder of the Preferred Equity will be
allocated taxable income equal to the amount of Preferred Yield
actually distributed in cash to such holder, in any taxable year; no
other taxable income or loss shall be allocated to the holder of the
Preferred Equity. The Preferred Equity will be freely transferable.
Warrants: The holder of the Junior Preferred Equity will receive warrants (the
"Warrants") exercisable into a percentage interest of Borrower's
equity in the Property. The equity percentage represented by the
Warrants shall equal the lesser of (i) 80% and (ii) the percentage
derived by dividing the original amount of the Junior Preferred
Equity by the sum of the value of Borrower's equity in the Property
plus the original amount of Junior Preferred Equity and multiplying
the result by 80%; provided, however, that in no event will the equity
percentage be less than 35%. The Borrower's equity in the Property
will be derived by dividing the Net Operating Income (as determined
by Lender) by 10%, and subtracting the sum of the Re-sized Amount
and the total original amount of the Preferred Equity. These
Warrants once issued will remain in effect with or without
prepayment of the Junior Preferred Equity, and may or may not be
exercised; and the equity interest issued upon exercise shall continue
notwithstanding the retirement or prepayment of Junior Preferred
Equity.
