Borrower shall pay to Lender (a) on the Closing Date, an amount equal to interest only calculated at the Applicable Interest Rate on the outstanding principal balance of the Loan from the Closing Date up to and including October 10, 2004 and (b) on the Payment Date occurring in November, 2004 and on each Payment Date thereafter up to but not including the Maturity Date, an amount equal to the Debt Service Payment Amount, which payments shall be applied first to accrued and unpaid interest for the prior Interest Period and the balance, if any, to the outstanding principal balance of the Loan.
2.2.5. Payment on Maturity Date. Borrower shall pay to Lender on the Maturity Date the outstanding principal balance of the Loan, all accrued and unpaid interest and all other amounts due hereunder and under the Note, the Security Instruments and the other Loan Documents.
2.2.6. Payments after Default. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, interest on the outstanding principal balance of the Loan and, to the extent permitted by law, overdue interest and other amounts due in respect of the Loan, shall accrue at the Default Rate, calculated from the date such payment was due after the expiration of any grace or cure periods contained herein until the earlier of the date the Event of Default is cured or waived or the date upon which the Debt is paid in full and shall be secured by the Security Instruments and the other Loan Documents. This paragraph shall not be construed as an agreement or privilege to extend the date of the payment of the Debt, nor as a waiver of any other right or remedy accruing to Lender by reason of the occurrence and continuance of any Event of Default; and Lender retains its rights under the Note to accelerate and to continue to demand payment of the Debt upon the happening and during the continuance of any Event of Default.
- 33 -
2.2.7. Late Payment Charge. If any principal, interest or any other sums due under the Loan Documents is not paid by Borrower on or prior to the date on which it is due, Borrower shall pay to Lender within five (5) days after demand an amount equal to the lesser of (i) three percent (3%) of such unpaid sum or (ii) 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 payment. Any such amount shall be secured by the Security Instruments and the other Loan Documents to the extent permitted by applicable law.
2.2.8. Usury Savings. This Agreement and the Note are subject to the express condition that at no time shall Borrower be obligated or required to pay interest on the principal balance of the Loan at a rate which could subject Lender to either civil or criminal liability as a result of being in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate. If by the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, Borrower is at any time required or obligated to pay interest on the principal balance due hereunder at a rate in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate, the Applicable Interest Rate or the Default Rate, as the case may be, shall be deemed to be immediately reduced to the Maximum Legal Rate and all previous payments in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate shall be deemed to have been payments in reduction of principal and not on account of the interest due hereunder or if the Loan has been repaid in full, shall immediately be returned to Borrower. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Lender for the use, forbearance, or detention of the sums due under 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 Loan does not exceed the Maximum Legal Rate of interest from time to time in effect and applicable to the Loan for so long as the Loan is outstanding.
2.2.9. Determination of LIBOR. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 2.2.9, until the Fixed Rate Conversion Date, the Loan shall bear interest at the LIBOR Rate.
(b) In the event that Lender shall have reasonably determined that by reason of circumstances beyond Lender’s reasonable control affecting the interbank eurodollar market LIBOR cannot be determined as provided in the definition of the LIBOR as set forth herein, then Lender shall forthwith give notice by telephone to Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx (or his successor at AFRT) of such fact, confirmed in writing, to Borrower at least one (1) Business Day prior to the last day of the Interest Period in which such fact shall be determined. If such notice is given, the Loan shall be converted, from and after the first day of the next succeeding Interest Period until the Fixed Rate Conversion Date, to a Prime Rate Loan; provided, however that Borrower shall have the option for two (2) Business Days after receipt of such notice to request that the interest rate on the Loan be converted to the Regular Interest Rate from and after the first day of the next succeeding Interest Period. If Borrower so elects to convert the interest rate on the Loan to the Regular Interest Rate pursuant to this clause (b), Borrower shall promptly pay to Lender on demand all amounts necessary to compensate Lender for any costs or losses incurred, including, without limitation, all breakage costs, in connection with such conversion.
- 34 -
(c) If, pursuant to the terms of Section 2.2.9(b) above, the Loan has been converted to a Prime Rate Loan but thereafter LIBOR can again be determined as provided in the definition of LIBOR as set forth herein, Lender shall give notice thereof to Borrower and convert the Prime Rate Loan back to a loan bearing interest based on LIBOR by delivering to Borrower notice of such conversion no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City Time), one (1) Business Days prior to the next succeeding Determination Date, in which event the Prime Rate Loan shall be converted to a loan bearing interest based on LIBOR from, after and including the first day of the next succeeding Interest Period. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall Borrower have the right to elect to convert the Loan to a Prime Rate Loan.
(d) All payments made by Borrower hereunder shall be made free and clear of, and without reduction for or on account of, income, stamp or other taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions, reserves or withholdings imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Governmental Authority, which are imposed, enacted or become effective after the date hereof, excluding income, withholding, backup withholding and franchise taxes of the United States of America or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (including Puerto Rico) or any other jurisdiction (such non-excluded taxes being referred to collectively as “Foreign Taxes”). If any Foreign Taxes are required to be withheld from any amounts payable to Lender hereunder, the amounts so payable to Lender shall be increased to the extent necessary to yield to Lender (after payment of all Foreign Taxes) interest or any such other amounts payable hereunder at the rate or in the amounts specified hereunder. Whenever any Foreign Tax is payable pursuant to applicable law by Borrower, as promptly as reasonably possible thereafter, Borrower shall send to Lender an original official receipt, if available, or certified copy thereof showing payment of such Foreign Tax. Subject to the provisions of Section 9.4 hereof, Borrower hereby indemnifies Lender for any incremental taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by Lender which may result from any failure by Borrower to pay any such Foreign Tax when due to the appropriate taxing authority or any failure by Borrower to remit to Lender the required receipts or other required documentary evidence; provided that Borrower shall not indemnify Lender for interest that may become payable by Lender on Foreign Taxes that were required to be withheld from any amounts payable to Lender in the event Borrower failed to withhold such Foreign Taxes from the applicable payment to Lender.
(e) If any requirement of law or any change therein or in the interpretation or application thereof, shall hereafter make it unlawful for Lender to make or maintain the Applicable Interest Rate based on LIBOR as contemplated hereunder, (i) the obligation of Lender hereunder to maintain LIBOR or to convert a Prime Rate Loan to an interest rate based on LIBOR as contemplated hereunder shall be canceled forthwith and (ii) any portion of the Loan bearing interest at an interest rate based on LIBOR shall be converted automatically to a Prime Rate Loan on the first day of the next succeeding Interest Period or within such earlier period as required by law. Borrower hereby agrees promptly to pay Lender, upon demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate Lender for any costs incurred by Lender in making any conversion in accordance with this Agreement, including, without limitation, any interest or fees payable by Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to make or maintain the Loan at an interest rate based on LIBOR as contemplated hereunder. Lender’s notice of such costs, as certified to Borrower, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
- 35 -
(f) In the event that any change in any requirement of law or in the interpretation or application thereof, or compliance by Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) hereafter issued from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (other than, solely with respect to this clause (f), any such change or other event relating to taxes):
(i) shall hereafter impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances or loans by, or other credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of Lender which is not otherwise included in the determination of LIBOR hereunder;
(ii) shall hereafter have the effect of reducing the rate of return on Lender’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which Lender could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration Lender’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by any amount deemed by Lender to be material; or
(iii) shall hereafter impose on Lender any other condition and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to Lender of making, renewing or maintaining loans or extensions of credit or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder;
then, in any such case, Borrower shall promptly pay Lender, upon demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate Lender for such additional cost or reduced amount receivable which Lender deems to be material as determined by Lender in its reasonable discretion. If Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.2.9(f), Lender shall provide Borrower with not less than thirty (30) days written notice specifying in reasonable detail the event by reason of which it has become so entitled and an itemized accounting of the additional amount required to fully compensate Lender for such additional cost or reduced amount. A certificate as to any additional out-of-pocket costs or amounts payable pursuant to the foregoing sentence submitted by Lender to Borrower shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. Subject to Section 2.2.9(h) hereof, this provision shall survive payment of the Note and the satisfaction of all other obligations of Borrower under this Agreement and the Loan Documents.
(g) Subject to the provisions of Section 9.4 hereof, Borrower agrees to indemnify Lender and to hold Lender harmless from any loss or expense which Lender sustains or incurs as a consequence of (i) any default by Borrower in payment of the principal of or interest on at an interest rate based on LIBOR, including, without limitation, any such loss or expense arising from interest or fees payable by Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to maintain the interest rate based on LIBOR hereunder, (ii) any prepayment (whether voluntary or mandatory) of the Loan on a day that (A) is not a Payment Date or (B) is a Payment Date if Borrower did not give the prior written notice of such prepayment required pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including, without limitation, such loss or expense
- 36 -
arising from interest or fees payable by Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to maintain the Regular Interest Rate hereunder and (iii) the conversion pursuant to the terms hereof of the interest rate based on LIBOR to the Prime Rate Loan on a date other than the Payment Date, including, without limitation, such loss or expenses arising from interest or fees payable by Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to maintain LIBOR hereunder (the amounts referred to in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) are herein referred to collectively as the “Breakage Costs”); provided, however, Borrower shall not indemnify Lender from any loss or expense arising from Lender’s willful misconduct, fraud, or gross negligence. This provision shall survive payment of the Note in full and the satisfaction of all other obligations of Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
(h) Lender shall not be entitled to claim compensation pursuant to this Section 2.2.9 for any Foreign Taxes, increased cost or reduction in amounts received or receivable hereunder, or any reduced rate of return, which was incurred or which accrued more than the earlier of (i) ninety (90) days before the date Lender notified Borrower of the change in law or other circumstance on which such claim of compensation is based and delivered to Borrower a written statement setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for calculating the additional amounts owed to Lender under this Section 2.2.9, which statement shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto absent manifest error or fraud, or (ii) any earlier date (but not earlier than the effective date of such change in law or circumstance), provided that Lender notified Borrower of such change in law or circumstance and delivered the written statement referenced in clause (i) within ninety (90) days after the effective date of such change in law or circumstance.
(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.2.9, this Agreement, the Note or any of the Loan Documents, Section 9.4 shall govern enforcement of the indemnities contained herein.
(j) Lender will use reasonable efforts (consistent with legal and regulatory restrictions) to maintain the availability of LIBOR for the Loan and to avoid or reduce any increased or additional costs (including Foreign Taxes) payable by Borrower under Section 2.2.9, including, if requested by Borrower, a transfer or assignment of the Loan to a branch, office or Affiliate of Lender in another jurisdiction, or a redesignation of its lending office with respect to the Loan, in order to maintain the availability of LIBOR for the Loan or to avoid or reduce such increased or additional costs, provided that the transfer or assignment or redesignation (a) would not result in any additional costs, expenses or risk to Lender that are not reimbursed by Borrower and (b) would not be disadvantageous in any other material respect to Lender as determined by Lender in its reasonable discretion.
2.2.10. Withholding Taxes. Lender represents that it is and shall continue throughout the term of the Loan to be entitled to receive any payments to be made to it hereunder without the withholding of any tax and will furnish to Borrower such forms, certifications, statements and other documents as Borrower may reasonably request from time to time to evidence such Lender’s exemption from the withholding of any tax imposed by any jurisdiction or to enable Borrower to comply with any applicable Legal Requirements relating thereto. Without limiting the effect of the foregoing, if Lender is not now or hereafter created or organized under the laws of the United States or any state thereof, Lender will furnish to
- 37 -
Borrower Form W-8ECI or Form W-8BEN of the U.S. Internal Revenue Service, or such other forms, certifications, statements or documents, duly executed and completed by Lender, as evidence of such Lender’s complete exemption from the withholding of United States tax with respect thereto.
Section 2.3. Prepayments.
2.3.1. Voluntary Prepayments. Borrower shall not have the right to prepay the Loan in whole or in part except in accordance with this Agreement. From and after the Lockout Release Date, Borrower may, at its option and upon ten (10) Business Days prior written notice to Lender, prepay the Debt in whole, but not in part, without payment of the Yield Maintenance Premium or any other prepayment premium; provided, however, if such prepayment shall be made on a date other than a Payment Date, Borrower shall pay to Lender, simultaneously with such prepayment, the interest that would have accrued at the Applicable Interest Rate on the amount then prepaid through the end of the Interest Period in which such prepayment occurs.
2.3.2. Mandatory Prepayments. On each date on which Borrower actually receives any Net Proceeds, if Lender is not obligated, or does not consent, to make such Net Proceeds available to Borrower for Restoration, Borrower shall prepay the outstanding principal balance of the Note in an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of such Net Proceeds. No Yield Maintenance Premium or other penalty shall be due in connection with a prepayment made pursuant to this Section 2.3.2.
2.3.3. Prepayments After Default. If prior to the Lockout Release Date, and following an Event of Default which is continuing, payment of all or any part of the Loan (exclusive of any Debt Service) is tendered by Borrower or otherwise recovered by Lender, such tender or recovery shall be deemed a voluntary prepayment by Borrower and Borrower shall pay, in addition to the Debt, an amount equal to the Yield Maintenance Premium that would be required if a Total Defeasance Event had occurred in an amount equal to the outstanding principal amount of the Loan to be satisfied or prepaid. Any payment of the Loan tendered by Borrower or otherwise recovered by Lender pursuant to this Section 2.3.3, shall be applied by Lender to the Debt in such order and priority as determined by Lender in its sole discretion.
2.3.4. Prepayments Pursuant to Release of Special Release Properties. In connection with the release of any Special Release Property in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 2.5.2, if Borrower is required under Section 2.5.2(a) to pay to Lender a Yield Maintenance Premium as a condition precedent to such release, Borrower shall pay to Lender the Yield Maintenance Premium that would be required if a Total Defeasance Event had occurred in an amount equal to the Release Amount with respect to such Special Release Property, and if Borrower is required under Section 2.5.2(b) or 2.5.2(c) to pay to Lender a Yield Maintenance Premium as a condition precedent to such release, Borrower shall pay to Lender the Yield Maintenance Premium that would be required if a Total Defeasance Event had occurred in an amount equal to the Additional Release Amount with respect to such Special Release Property.
- 38 -
Section 2.4. Defeasance.
2.4.1. Total Defeasance.
(a) Provided no Event of Default shall then be continuing, Borrower shall have the right at any time after the Release Date and prior to Lockout Release Date to voluntarily defease the entire Loan and obtain a release of the liens of all of the Security Instruments by providing Lender with the Total Defeasance Collateral (hereinafter, a “Total Defeasance Event”), subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions precedent:

- 39 -
Successor Borrower; provided that, in rendering the opinions described in clauses (B) and (C), counsel may rely upon representations from Borrower regarding (i) the extent to which the Total Defeasance Event is occurring to facilitate the disposition of property or other customary commercial transactions and is not part of an arrangement to collateralize a REMIC Trust with obligations that are not real estate mortgages, (ii) the nature of the substitute collateral, and (iii) the extent to which Lender has incurred, or is expected to incur, any loss, damage, cost, expense, liability, claim or other obligation arising out of or in connection with any of the events described in any of Sections 9.4(i) through (xiii) hereof; provided further that, if a Securitization has occurred, upon Borrower’s written request, Lender shall provide Borrower with written notice, on which Borrower and Borrower’s counsel may rely in connection with the opinion required under this clause (v), specifying the “startup day” (within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(8) or any successor provision) of any REMIC Trust formed pursuant to such Securitization;
(vi) Borrower shall deliver to Lender a Rating Agency Confirmation as to the Total Defeasance Event;
(vii) if required by the Rating Agencies, Borrower shall deliver to Lender a certificate of a “Big Four” or other nationally recognized public accounting firm acceptable to Lender and the Rating Agencies certifying that the Total Defeasance Collateral will generate monthly amounts (without taking into account any earnings on reinvestment) equal to or greater than the Scheduled Defeasance Payments;
(viii) Borrower shall deliver to Lender such other certificates, documents and instruments as Lender may reasonably request or the Rating Agencies may require, which certificates, documents and instruments Lender or Lender’s counsel shall prepare; and
(ix) Borrower shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses of Lender incurred in connection with the Total Defeasance Event (regardless of whether such event actually occurs), including, without limitation, Lender’s reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses and Rating Agency fees and expenses (other than any costs and expenses arising as a result of such Total Defeasance Event occurring within two years of the “startup day” (within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(8) or any successor provision) of any REMIC Trust).
(b) If Borrower has elected to defease the entire Note and the requirements of this Section 2.4.1 have been satisfied, the Properties shall be released from the liens of the Security Instruments and the Total Defeasance Collateral pledged pursuant to the Security Agreement shall be the sole source of collateral securing the Note. In connection with the release of such liens, Lender shall deliver to Borrower a release of Lien (and related Loan Documents) for each Property duly executed by Lender. Each such release shall be in a form appropriate in the jurisdiction in which each such Property is located and shall contain standard provisions protecting the rights of the releasing lender. In addition, Borrower shall deliver to Lender such other documentation reasonably required by Lender. Borrower shall pay all costs, taxes and state, county and/or municipal fees associated with the release of the liens of the
- 40 -
Security Instruments, including Lender’s reasonable attorneys’ fees. Except as set forth in this Section 2.4 and in Section 2.5, 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 applicable Security Instrument on any Property.
2.4.2. Partial Defeasance.
(a) Provided no Event of Default shall then be continuing, Borrower shall have the right at any time after the Release Date and prior to the Lockout Release Date to voluntarily defease a portion of the Loan (on a Property-by-Property basis, or in connection with a defeasance of a portion of the Loan pursuant to Section 2.5.2(c)(i) or 7.8) and, if any such Property is being defeased, obtain a release of the lien of the Security Instrument encumbering any such Property being defeased by providing Lender with the Partial Defeasance Collateral (a “Partial Defeasance Event”), subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions precedent:
(i) Borrower shall provide Lender not less than 30 days notice (or such shorter period of time as permitted by Lender in its sole discretion) specifying (A) a Payment Date (the “Partial Defeasance Date”) on which the Partial Defeasance Event is to occur, and (B) if any such Property is being defeased, the Property or Properties proposed to be released from the lien of the applicable Security Instrument(s) (individually a “Partial Defeasance Release Property” and collectively, the “Partial Defeasance Release Properties”);
(ii) Borrower shall pay to Lender (A) all payments of principal and interest due on the Loan to and including the Partial Defeasance Date and (B) all other sums then due under the Note and the other Loan Documents; and Lender shall provide Borrower with a statement setting forth the amount of such principal, interest and other sums then due;

The Defeased Note and Undefeased Note shall have identical terms as the Note except for the principal balance. The Defeased Note and the Undefeased Note shall be cross defaulted and cross collateralized unless a Successor Borrower that is not an Affiliate of Borrower is established pursuant to Section 2.4.4.

(xi) If any such Property is being defeased, after giving effect to the release of the liens of the Security Instrument(s) encumbering the Property or Properties proposed by Borrower to be released as part of the Partial Defeasance Event, the Loan-To-Value Ratio with respect to the remaining Properties shall be no greater than the lesser of (A) the Closing Date LTV or (B) the Loan-To-Value Ratio with respect to all of the Properties encumbered by all of the Security Instruments immediately prior to the Partial Defeasance Event (with each of (A) and (B) being determined based upon updated Appraisals obtained at Borrower’s expense for each of the Properties);
(xii) Borrower shall deliver to Lender an opinion of counsel for Borrower that is standard in commercial lending transactions and subject only to customary qualifications, assumptions and exceptions, opining, among other things, that (A) Lender has a legal and valid perfected first priority security interest in the Defeasance Collateral Account for such defeasance and the Partial Defeasance Collateral, (B) if a Securitization has occurred, the REMIC Trust formed pursuant to such Securitization will not fail to maintain its status as a “real estate mortgage investment conduit” within the meaning of Section 860D of the Code as a result of the Partial Defeasance Event pursuant to this Section 2.4.2 other than as a result of such Partial Defeasance Event occurring within two years of the “startup day” (within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(8) or any successor provision) of a REMIC Trust, (C) the Partial Defeasance Event will not result in a deemed exchange of the Loan for purposes of Section 1001 of the Code and will not adversely affect the status of the
- 42 -
Defeased Note and the Undefeased Note as indebtedness for federal income tax purposes, (D) delivery of the Partial Defeasance Collateral and the grant of a security interest therein to Lender shall not constitute an avoidable preference under Section 547 of the Bankruptcy Code or applicable state law and (E) if applicable, a New Insolvency Opinion with respect to the Successor Borrower; provided that, in rendering the opinions described in clauses (B) and (C), counsel may rely upon representations from Borrower regarding (i) the extent to which the Partial Defeasance Event is occurring to facilitate the disposition of property or other customary commercial transactions and is not part of an arrangement to collateralize a REMIC Trust with obligations that are not real estate mortgages, (ii) the nature of the substitute collateral, and (iii) the extent to which Lender has incurred, or is expected to incur, any loss, damage, cost, expense, liability, claim or other obligation arising out of or in connection with any of the events described in any of Sections 9.4(i) through (xiii) hereof; provided further that, if a Securitization has occurred, upon Borrower’s written request; Lender shall provide Borrower with written notice, on which Borrower and Borrower’s counsel may rely in connection with the opinion required under this clause (xii), specifying the “startup day” (within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(8) or any successor provision) of any REMIC Trust formed pursuant to such Securitization;

In the event Borrower requests approval of a Material Lease, or a material amendment or modification of a Material Lease, requiring Lender’s approval hereunder, and Borrower’s correspondence from the Borrower to Lender requesting such approval contains a bold-faced conspicuous legend at the top of the first page thereof stating that “IF YOU FAIL TO RESPOND TO OR TO EXPRESSLY DENY THIS REQUEST FOR APPROVAL IN WRITING WITHIN TEN (10) DAYS, YOUR APPROVAL SHALL BE DEEMED GIVEN,” and the envelope containing such request is marked “PRIORITY,” then if Lender shall fail to respond to or expressly deny such request for approval in writing within ten (10) days after receipt of Borrower’s written request therefor, then Lender shall be deemed to have approved such Material Lease, or material amendment or modification of such Material Lease, as the case may be. Borrower shall provide Lender with such information and documentation as may reasonably requested by Lender, including, without limitation, lease comparables and other market information reasonably requested by Lender;
- 78 -
(b) Borrower shall furnish or cause to be furnished to Lender with executed copies of all Leases promptly following execution of such Leases;
(c) All renewals of Leases (other than extensions or renewals of existing Leases pursuant to options provided therein) and all proposed Leases shall provide for rental rates comparable to existing local market rates for comparable properties;
(d) All proposed Leases including amendments of existing Leases shall be on commercially reasonable terms and (other than extensions or renewals of existing Leases pursuant to options provided therein) shall not contain any terms which would reasonably be likely to have a Material Adverse Effect;
(e) All Leases executed after the date hereof (other than extensions or renewals of existing Leases pursuant to options provided therein) shall provide that they are subordinate to the Security Instrument encumbering the applicable Property and that the tenant thereunder agrees, subject to appropriate provisions for non-disturbance to the extent the tenant is not in default thereunder, to attorn to Lender or any purchaser at a sale by foreclosure or power of sale. Lender, at the request of Borrower, shall enter into a subordination, attornment and nondisturbance agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender (a “Nondisturbance Agreement”) with any existing tenant or any tenant entering into a Lease after the date hereof (other than a Lease to an Affiliate of Borrower). All actual and reasonable, out-of-pocket costs and expenses of Lender in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of any Nondisturbance Agreement including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, shall be paid by Borrower;
(f) Borrower shall observe and perform all obligations imposed upon the lessor under the Leases in the manner required by the applicable Leases;

(i) Borrower shall not collect any of the Rents more than one (1) month in advance (other than security deposits);

- 79 -
(l) Borrower shall execute and deliver at the request of Lender all such further assurances, confirmations and assignments in connection with the Leases as Lender shall from time to time reasonably require;
(m) Borrower shall keep all security deposits under Leases (collectively, “Security Deposits”) in an Eligible Account under Borrower’s control at a FDIC-insured bank or financial institution reasonably acceptable to Lender (such account, the “Security Deposit Account”). All Security Deposits shall be held by Borrower in accordance with the terms of the applicable Lease. Security Deposits shall be maintained as Cash unless Borrower, at Borrower’s election, elects to invest the funds in the Security Deposit Account in Permitted Investments. The funds in the Security Deposit Account shall not be commingled with any other funds of Borrower. Borrower shall, upon Lender’s request during the continuance of an Event of Default, unless prohibited by applicable Legal Requirements or the terms of the applicable Lease, deliver to Lender the Security Deposits (and any interest theretofore earned thereon) to be held by Lender in an account under the Cash Management Agreement (the “Security Deposit Reserve Account”). Security Deposits held in the Security Deposit Reserve Account will be released by Lender upon notice from Borrower together with such evidence as Lender may reasonably request that such Security Deposit is required to be returned to the applicable tenant pursuant to the terms of a Lease or pursuant to applicable law. In the event that Borrower is entitled to retain the amount of the Security Deposit pursuant to an exercise of the rights and remedies of Borrower under the applicable Lease or is otherwise entitled by applicable law or agreement with the applicable tenant to retain the applicable Security Deposit, Borrower shall deliver such Security Deposit to Lender to be, at Lender’s option, deposited into the Cash Collateral Account or retained in a Reserve Fund to pay the anticipated expenses (including Debt Service) in connection with operation of the Properties as determined by Lender. Any letter of credit or other instrument that Borrower receives in lieu of a Cash security deposit under any Lease entered into after the date hereof shall (i) be maintained in full force and effect in the full amount unless replaced by a Cash deposit as hereinabove described or unless Borrower is permitted to draw thereon pursuant to the Lease and in fact does draw thereon (in which event, the proceeds of such draw shall be applied as would a Cash security deposit under the circumstances) and (ii) if permitted pursuant to any Legal Requirements and such letter of credit, name Lender as payee or mortgagee thereunder (or at Lender’s option, be fully assignable to Borrower’s successors and assigns);
(n) If requested by Borrower, Lender will grant approval of proposed Leases at any stage of the leasing process, from initial “term sheets” through negotiated lease drafts including any work or alterations to be performed pursuant thereto, provided that information which reasonably identifies the proposed tenant is included in the request to Lender and upon such approval, no further approval by Lender shall be required, provided that the final negotiated Lease does not materially differ from the proposed Lease (including initial “term sheet”) approved by Lender and, provided further that, Lender shall retain the right to disapprove any such Lease as to which its approval is required if subsequent to any preliminary approval material changes are made to the terms previously approved by Lender, or additional material terms are added that had not previously been considered and approved by Lender in connection with such Lease; and
- 80 -
(o) Without the prior written consent of Lender, Borrower shall not consent to the assignment of, or sublease of any space demised under and subject to, any Wachovia Lease if as a result of such assignment or sublease, Wachovia would be released from any of its obligations or liabilities under such Wachovia Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower may, pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Branch Agreement Side Letter, consent to the assumption of any Wachovia Lease and the release of Wachovia from all obligations and liabilities under such Wachovia Lease; provided, that at the time such consent is given, Borrower receives the payment required to be made under the Branch Agreement in consideration for such consent.
5.1.21. Alterations. Subject to the rights of Wachovia under any Wachovia Lease and subject to the terms and conditions of any Ground Lease, Borrower shall obtain Lender’s prior written consent to any Alterations to the Improvements which have a cost in excess of the Alteration Threshold Amount and, unless such Alterations are reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect (with respect to any Property, or with respect to the Properties taken as a whole), such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender’s consent shall not be required in connection with the following categories of Alterations: (a) Alterations made in connection with tenant improvement work performed pursuant to the terms of any Lease executed on or before the date hereof (or in the case of a Substitute Property, any Lease in effect at the time of the applicable Property Substitution), (b) Alterations made in connection with tenant improvement work performed pursuant to the terms and provisions of a Lease and not adversely affecting any structural component of any Improvements, any utility or HVAC system contained in any Improvements or the exterior of any building constituting a part of any Improvements, (c) Alterations performed in connection with the Restoration of any Property after the occurrence of a Casualty or Condemnation in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement, (d) Alterations required to be made pursuant to any Legal Requirement or (e) Alterations performed by Wachovia under any Wachovia Lease for which the consent of Borrower, as landlord, is not required under such Wachovia Lease. If the total unpaid amounts with respect to Alterations to the Improvements (other than such amounts to be paid or reimbursed by tenants under the Leases, including, without limitation, Alterations performed by Wachovia under any Wachovia Lease, the total cost and expense of which is borne entirely by Wachovia) shall at any time exceed the Alteration Threshold Amount, Borrower shall promptly deliver to Lender as security (“Acceptable Alteration Security”) for the payment of such amounts and as additional security for Borrower’s obligations under the Loan Documents any of the following: (A) Cash, (B) U.S. Obligations, (C) other securities having a rating acceptable to Lender and if the Loan has been subject to a Securitization, that the applicable Rating Agencies have delivered a Rating Agency Confirmation, (D) a completion and performance bond issued by a Person having a rating by S&P of not less than “A-1+” if the term of such bond is no longer than three (3) months or, if such term is in excess of three (3) months, issued by a financial institution having a rating that is reasonably acceptable to Lender and, if the Loan has been securitized, that the applicable Rating Agencies have delivered a Rating Agency Confirmation or (E) a Letter of Credit. Such Acceptable Alteration Security shall be in an amount equal to the excess of the total unpaid amounts with respect to Alterations to the Improvements on the applicable Property (other than such amounts to be paid or reimbursed by tenants under the Leases) over the Alteration Threshold Amount. Provided that an Event of Default shall not have occurred and be continuing, the Acceptable
- 81 -
Alteration Security shall be released to Borrower by Lender when Lender is reasonably satisfied that the total unpaid amounts with respect to the Alterations to the Improvements for which the Acceptable Alteration Security has been delivered to Lender is less than the Alteration Threshold Amount.
5.1.22. Management of Properties.
(a) Borrower shall cause each Property to be operated, in all material respects, in accordance with the applicable Management Agreement. In the event that any Management Agreement expires or is terminated (without limiting any obligation of Borrower to obtain Lender’s consent to any termination or modification of such Management Agreement in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement), Borrower shall promptly enter into a replacement Management Agreement with the applicable Manager or another Qualifying Manager, as applicable.

Borrower shall not, without the prior consent of Lender, surrender the leasehold estate created by any Ground Lease or terminate or cancel any Ground Lease or modify, change, supplement, alter or amend any Ground Lease in any material respect, either orally or in writing, and if Borrower shall default in the performance or observance of any term, covenant or condition of any Ground Lease on the part of Borrower, as tenant thereunder, in any material respect and shall fail to cure the same (or shall fail to receive a written waiver of same from the landlord under such Ground Lease) prior to the expiration of any applicable cure period provided thereunder, Lender shall have the right, but shall be under no obligation, to pay any sums and to perform any act or take any action as may be appropriate to cause all of the terms, covenants and conditions of such Ground Lease on the part of Borrower to be performed or observed on behalf of Borrower, to the end that the rights of Borrower in, to and under such Ground Lease shall be kept unimpaired and free from default; provided that Lender shall use reasonable efforts to notify Borrower that Lender intends (but is not obligated) to pay any such sums, perform any such act and/or take any such action. If the landlord under any
- 82 -
Ground Lease shall deliver to Lender a copy of any notice of default under such Ground Lease, such notice shall constitute full protection to Lender for any action taken or omitted to be taken by Lender, in good faith, in reliance thereon. Borrower shall exercise each individual option, if any, to extend or renew the term of each Ground Lease upon demand by Lender made at any time within one (1) year prior to the last day upon which any such option may be exercised, and Borrower hereby expressly authorizes and appoints Lender its attorney-in-fact to exercise any such option in the name of and upon behalf of Borrower, which power of attorney shall be irrevocable and shall be deemed to be coupled with an interest.
5.1.24. Performance of Other Agreements. Borrower shall in a timely manner observe, perform and fulfill in all material respects each and every covenant, term and provision of any agreement or instrument affecting or pertaining to any Property, including, without limitation, the Master Agreement, each Material Agreement and each REA.

Borrower shall deliver to Lender, promptly upon request, evidence satisfactory to Lender that the Assessments have been so paid and are not delinquent with respect to the Condominium Property.
(c) Lender shall have the rights and privileges which Borrower has as though Lender were in fact the owner of the Condominium Property, which rights and privileges shall include, without limitation, all voting rights accruing to Borrower under the terms of the Condominium Documents. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender may vote in place of Borrower and may exercise any and all of said rights. Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Lender as its attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest to vote as Borrower’s proxy and to act with respect to all of said rights so long as such Event of Default continues hereunder. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, nothing contained herein or otherwise shall render Lender liable for any Assessments.
(d) The Trustee shall at all times be a financial institution or trust company having a long-term credit rating of not less than “A” or its equivalent by S&P and Xxxxx’x.
(e) Borrower shall promptly deliver to Lender a true, complete and correct copy of all notices of default received by Borrower with respect to any obligation or duty of Borrower under the Condominium Documents.

Borrower shall not enter into, or be a party to, any transaction with an Affiliate of Borrower or any of the partners of Borrower except in the ordinary course of business and on terms which are fully disclosed to Lender in advance and are no less favorable to Borrower or such Affiliate than would be obtained in a comparable arm’s-length transaction with an unrelated third party.

The Policies described in Section 6.1(a) (other than those strictly limited to liability protection) shall designate Lender as loss payee. Not less than ten (10) days prior to the expiration dates of the Policies theretofore furnished to Lender, certificates of insurance evidencing the Policies accompanied by evidence satisfactory to Lender of payment of the premiums then due thereunder (the “Insurance Premiums”), shall be delivered by Borrower to Lender.
(c) Any blanket insurance Policy shall specifically allocate to the Properties the amount of coverage from time to time required hereunder and shall otherwise provide the same protection as would a separate Policy insuring only the Properties in compliance with the provisions of Section 6.1(a).
(d) All Policies of insurance provided for or contemplated by Section 6.1(a) shall be primary coverage and, except for the Policy referenced in Section 6.1(a)(v), shall name Borrower as the insured and Lender and its successors and assigns as the additional insured, as its interests may appear, and in the case of property damage, boiler and machinery, flood, earthquake and terrorism insurance, shall contain a so-called New York standard non-contributing mortgagee clause in favor of Lender providing that the loss thereunder shall be payable to Lender. Borrower shall not procure or permit any of its constituent entities to procure any other insurance coverage which would be on the same level of payment as the Policies or would adversely impact in any way the ability of Lender or Borrower to collect any proceeds under any of the Policies.
(e) All Policies of insurance provided for in Section 6.1(a) shall contain clauses or endorsements to the effect that:
(i) no act or negligence of Borrower, or anyone acting for Borrower, or of any tenant or other occupant, or failure to comply with the provisions

All premiums incurred by Lender in connection with such action or in obtaining such insurance and keeping it in effect shall be paid by Borrower to Lender upon demand and, until paid, shall be secured by the Security Instruments and shall bear interest at the Default Rate.
Section 6.2. Casualty. If any Property shall be damaged or destroyed, in whole or in part, by fire or other casualty (a “Casualty”), Borrower shall give prompt notice of such damage to Lender and shall, subject to the terms and conditions of any Wachovia Lease or Ground Lease, promptly commence and diligently prosecute the completion of the repair and restoration of the applicable Property as nearly as possible to the condition such Property was in immediately prior to such fire or other casualty, with such alterations as may be reasonably approved by Lender (a “Restoration”) and otherwise in accordance with Section 6.4. Borrower shall pay all costs of such Restoration whether or not such costs are covered by insurance. Lender may, but shall not be obligated to make proof of loss if not made promptly by Borrower. In the event of a Casualty where the loss does not exceed Restoration Threshold Amount, Borrower may settle and adjust such claim; provided that (a) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (b) such adjustment is carried out in a commercially reasonable and timely manner. In the event of a Casualty where the loss exceeds the Restoration Threshold Amount or if an Event of Default then exists, Borrower may settle and adjust such claim(s) only with the consent of Lender (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) and Lender shall have the opportunity to participate, at Borrower’s cost, in any such adjustments.

- 96 -
Restoration Threshold Amount, Borrower may settle and compromise such Condemnation; provided that the same is effected in a commercially reasonable and timely manner. In the event of a Condemnation where the amount of the taking exceeds the Restoration Threshold Amount or if an Event of Default then exists, Borrower may settle and compromise the Condemnation only with the consent of Lender (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) and Lender shall have the opportunity to participate, at Borrower’s cost, in any litigation and settlement discussions in respect thereof and Borrower shall from time to time deliver to Lender all instruments requested by it to permit such participation. Borrower shall, at its expense, diligently prosecute any such proceedings, and shall consult with Lender, its attorneys and experts, and cooperate with them in the carrying on or defense of any such proceedings. Notwithstanding any taking by any public or quasi-public authority through Condemnation or otherwise (including but not limited to any transfer made in lieu of or in anticipation of the exercise of such taking), Borrower shall continue to pay the Debt at the time and in the manner provided for its payment in the Note and in this Agreement and the Debt shall not be reduced until any Award shall have been actually received and applied by Lender, after the deduction of expenses of collection, to the reduction or 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 herein or in the Note. If any Property or any portion thereof is taken by a condemning authority, subject to the terms and conditions of any Wachovia Lease or Ground Lease, Borrower shall promptly commence and diligently prosecute the Restoration of such Property and otherwise comply with the provisions of Section 6.4. If any Property is sold, through foreclosure or otherwise, prior to the receipt by Lender of the Award, Lender shall have the right, whether or not a deficiency judgment on the Note shall have been sought, recovered or denied, to receive the Award, or a portion thereof sufficient to pay the Debt.
Section 6.4. Restoration. The following provisions shall apply in connection with the Restoration of any Property:

If any Net Proceeds are received by Borrower and may be retained by Borrower pursuant to the terms hereof, such Net Proceeds shall, until completion of the Restoration, be held in trust for Lender and shall be segregated from other funds of Borrower to be used to pay for the cost of Restoration in accordance with the terms hereof.
(b) If the Net Proceeds are equal to or greater than the Restoration Threshold Amount or the costs of completing the Restoration is equal to or greater than the Restoration Threshold Amounts, Lender shall make the Net Proceeds available for the Restoration in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.4.

(ii) The Net Proceeds shall be paid directly to Lender and shall be held by Lender in an interest-bearing account and, until disbursed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.4(b), shall constitute additional security for the Debt and other obligations under the Loan Documents. The Net Proceeds (and accrued interest thereon, if any) shall be disbursed by Lender to, or as directed by, Borrower from time to time during the course of the Restoration, upon receipt of evidence satisfactory to Lender that (A) all materials installed and work and labor performed (except to the extent that they are to be paid for out of the requested disbursement) in connection with the Restoration have been paid for in full, and (B) there exist no notices of pendency, stop orders, mechanic’s or materialman’s liens or notices of intention to file same, or any other liens or encumbrances of any nature whatsoever on the applicable Property arising out of the Restoration which have not either been fully bonded to the satisfaction of Lender and discharged of record or in the alternative fully insured to the satisfaction of Lender by the title company issuing the applicable Title Insurance Policy.

The identity of the contractors, subcontractors and materialmen engaged in the Restoration, as well as the contracts under which they have been engaged, shall be subject to prior review and acceptance by Lender and the Casualty Consultant. All costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with making the Net Proceeds available for the Restoration including, without limitation, reasonable counsel fees and disbursements and the Casualty Consultant’s fees, shall be paid by Borrower.

The term “Casualty Retainage” shall mean an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the costs actually incurred for work in place as part of the Restoration, as certified by the Casualty Consultant, until the Restoration has been completed. The Casualty Retainage shall in no event, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above in this Section 6.4(b), be less than the amount actually held back by Borrower from contractors, subcontractors and materialmen engaged in the Restoration. The Casualty Retainage shall not be released until the Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender that the Restoration has been completed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.4(b) and that all approvals necessary for the re-occupancy and use of the applicable Property have been obtained from all appropriate governmental and quasi-governmental authorities, and Lender receives evidence satisfactory to Lender that the costs of the Restoration have been paid in full or will be paid in full out of the Casualty Retainage; provided, however, that Lender will release the portion of the Casualty Retainage being held with respect to any contractor, subcontractor or materialman engaged in the Restoration as of the date upon which the Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender that the contractor, subcontractor or materialman has satisfactorily completed all work and has supplied all materials in accordance with the provisions of the contractor’s, subcontractor’s or materialman’s contract, the contractor, subcontractor or materialman delivers the lien waivers and evidence of payment in full of all sums due to the contractor, subcontractor or materialman as may be reasonably requested by Lender or by the title company issuing the applicable Title Insurance Policy, and Lender receives an endorsement to the applicable Title Insurance Policy insuring the continued priority of the lien of the related Security Instrument and evidence of payment of any premium payable for such endorsement. If required by Lender, the release of any such portion of the Casualty Retainage shall be approved by the surety company, if any, which has issued a payment or performance bond with respect to the contractor, subcontractor or materialman.
(v) Lender shall not be obligated to make disbursements of the Net Proceeds more frequently than twice every calendar month.
(vi) If at any time the Net Proceeds or the undisbursed balance thereof shall not, in the opinion of Lender in consultation with the Casualty
- 100 -
Consultant, be sufficient to pay in full the balance of the costs which are estimated by the Casualty Consultant to be incurred in connection with the completion of the Restoration, Borrower shall deposit the deficiency (the “Net Proceeds Deficiency”) with Lender before any further disbursement of the Net Proceeds shall be made. The Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited with Lender shall be held by Lender and shall be disbursed for costs actually incurred in connection with the Restoration on the same conditions applicable to the disbursement of the Net Proceeds, and until so disbursed pursuant to this Section 6.4(b) shall constitute additional security for the Debt and other obligations under the Loan Documents.
(vii) The excess, if any, of the Net Proceeds and the remaining balance, if any, of the Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited with Lender after the Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender that the Restoration has been completed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.4(b), and the receipt by Lender of evidence satisfactory to Lender that all costs incurred in connection with the Restoration have been paid in full, shall be remitted by Lender (i) if the Mezzanine Loan (or any portion thereof) remains outstanding, into the Mezzanine Cash Collateral Account to be disbursed in accordance with the terms of the Mezzanine Loan Documents, or (ii) if the Mezzanine Loan has been paid in full, to Borrower, provided no Event of Default shall have occurred and shall be continuing under the Note, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.
(c) All Net Proceeds not required (i) to be made available for the Restoration or (ii) to be deposited into the Mezzanine Cash Collateral Account or returned to Borrower as excess Net Proceeds pursuant to Section 6.4(b)(vii) may be retained and applied by Lender toward the payment of the Debt whether or not then due and payable in such order, priority and proportions as Lender in its sole discretion shall deem proper, or, at the discretion of Lender, the same may be (i) if the Mezzanine Loan (or any portion thereof) remains outstanding, deposited into the Mezzanine Cash Collateral Account to be disbursed in accordance with the terms of the Mezzanine Loan Documents, or (ii) if the Mezzanine Loan has been paid in full, paid, either in whole or in part, to Borrower for such purposes as Lender shall designate, in its discretion.
(d) In the event of foreclosure of the related Security Instrument with respect to any Property, or other transfer of title to any Property in extinguishment in whole or in part of the Debt all right, title and interest of Borrower in and to the Policies that are not blanket Policies then in force concerning the applicable Property and all proceeds payable thereunder shall thereupon vest in the purchaser at such foreclosure or Lender or other transferee in the event of such other transfer of title.
(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 6.4, with respect to any Casualty or Condemnation of the Condominium Property, the applicable terms and conditions of the Condominium Documents and the terms and conditions of this Section 6.4 (only to the extent the same do not conflict with the applicable terms and conditions of the Condominium Documents) shall control the disbursement of the Net Proceeds hereunder provided that (i) the Condominium Documents are in full force and effect; (ii) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; (iii) (A) Lender receives (1) the
- 101 -
insurance proceeds payable to Borrower and (2) Borrower’s proportionate share of Net Proceeds not applied to the repair or reconstruction of any portion of the Building (as defined in the Condominium Documents) pursuant to the Condominium Documents, and (B) all other Net Proceeds are paid to the Condominium Board of Directors or the Trustee, as applicable, in accordance with the Condominium Documents; (iv) the Trustee is a financial institution or trust company having a long-term credit rating of not less than “A” (or its equivalent) by each of S&P and Xxxxx’x, and (v) each of the parties to the Condominium Documents (including, without limitation, Borrower and the Condominium Board of Directors) continues to comply in all material respects with all applicable terms and conditions of the Condominium Documents related to the disbursement of said Net Proceeds.
VII. RESERVE FUNDS
Section 7.1. Ground Rent Reserve.
(a) Borrower shall deposit with Lender on each Payment Date an amount (the “Monthly Ground Rent Deposit”) equal to the Ground Rent that will be payable under the Ground Leases for the month following the month in which such Payment Date occurs (such amounts so deposited shall hereinafter be called the “Ground Rent Reserve Funds”). The account in which the Ground Rent Reserve Funds are held shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Ground Rent Reserve Account.” Such deposit may be increased by Lender in the amount Lender deems is necessary in its reasonable discretion based on any increases in the Ground Rent. Provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Lender shall apply the Ground Rent Reserve Funds to payments of Ground Rent for each Leasehold Property for which Ground Rent Reserve Funds are being reserved hereunder. In making any payment relating to Ground Rent Reserve Account, Lender may do so according to any xxxx or statement given by the ground lessor under any Ground Lease without inquiry into the accuracy of such xxxx or statement or into the validity of any rent, additional rent or other charge thereof. If the amount of the Ground Rent Reserve Funds shall exceed the amounts due for Ground Rent, Lender shall return any excess to Borrower. Notwithstanding anything contained in this clause (a) to the contrary, the Monthly Ground Rent Deposit shall not include, and Borrower shall be responsible to pay, or cause to be paid, any Ground Rent for any Leasehold Property subject to a Lease, which Lease provides that every monetary and non-monetary obligation associated with managing, owning, developing and operating such Leasehold Property, including, without limitation, the obligation to pay Ground Rent, is an obligation of Wachovia or an Acceptable Replacement Tenant (i.e., a “triple net” Lease).
(b) At Borrower’s option, in lieu of the requirements set forth in Section 7.1(a) with respect to Borrower’s obligation to make monthly deposits into the Ground Rent Reserve Account, provided no Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing, Borrower may at any time during the term of the Loan deliver to Lender a Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the aggregate amount which Borrower would otherwise be required to deposit for Ground Rent over the next twelve (12) months (the “Ground Rent Letter of Credit”), which Ground Rent Letter of Credit shall be subject to the provisions of Section 7.10 hereof and whereupon the Ground Rent Reserve Funds then on deposit in the Ground Rent Reserve Account shall be remitted to Borrower. In the event that Borrower delivers the Ground Rent Letter of Credit to Lender, Borrower shall be responsible for the payment of
- 102 -
Ground Rent and Lender shall not be responsible therefor. At all times that the Ground Rent Letter of Credit is being held by Lender, Borrower shall pay the Ground Rent as the same become due and payable and furnish promptly to Lender receipts for the payments thereof. Borrower shall provide Lender with notice of any increases (or decreases) in the annual payments for Ground Rent no less than sixty (60) days prior to any date such increase (or decrease) is first due and payable and the Ground Rent Letter of Credit shall be increased (or decreased) by an amount equal to such increased (or decreased) amount at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the date such increased (or decreased) amount is first due and payable. Upon any non-payment or delinquent payment of Ground Rent by Borrower, Lender shall have the right, but not the obligation, to draw on the Ground Rent Letter of Credit for purposes of making the payment of Ground Rent on behalf of Borrower, whereupon Borrower’s obligation to make the monthly payments required under Section 7.1(a) shall be immediately reinstated.
Section 7.2. Tax and Insurance Reserve.
(a) Borrower shall pay to Lender on each Payment Date (a) one-twelfth of the Taxes that Lender estimates will be payable during the next ensuing 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 (b) one-twelfth 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 (said amounts in (a) and (b) above so deposited shall hereinafter be called the “Tax and Insurance Reserve Funds”). The account in which the Tax and Insurance Reserve Funds are held shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Tax and Insurance Reserve Account.” The Tax and Insurance Reserve Funds and the payments of interest or principal or both, payable pursuant to the Note, shall be added together and shall be paid as an aggregate sum by Borrower to Lender. Lender will apply the Tax and Insurance Reserve Funds to payments of Taxes and Insurance Premiums required to be made by Borrower pursuant to Section 5.1.2 hereof and under each Security Instrument for each of those Properties for which the Tax and Insurance Reserve Funds are being reserved hereunder. In making any payment relating to the Tax and Insurance Reserve Account, Lender may do so 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 Tax and Insurance Reserve Funds shall exceed the amounts due for Taxes and Insurance Premiums pursuant to Section 5.1.2 hereof, Lender shall, in its sole discretion, return any excess to Borrower or credit such excess against future payments to be made to the Tax and Insurance Reserve Account. If at any time Lender reasonably determines that the amount then on deposit in the Tax and Insurance Reserve Account is not or will not be sufficient to pay Taxes and Insurance Premiums by the dates set forth in (a) and (b) above, Lender shall notify Borrower of such determination and Borrower shall increase its monthly payments to Lender by the amount that Lender estimates is sufficient to make up the deficiency at least thirty (30) days prior to delinquency of the Taxes and/or thirty (30) days prior to expiration of the Policies, as the case may be. Notwithstanding anything contained in this clause (a) to the contrary, the Tax and Insurance Reserve Funds shall not include, and Borrower shall be responsible to pay, or cause to be paid, all Taxes and Insurance Premiums
- 103 -
required to be paid with respect to any Property subject to a Lease, which Lease provides that every monetary and non-monetary obligation associated with managing, owning, developing and operating such Property, including, without limitation, the obligation to pay Taxes and Insurance Premiums, is an obligation of Wachovia or an Acceptable Replacement Tenant (i.e., a “triple net” Lease).
(b) At Borrower’s option, in lieu of the requirements set forth in Section 7.2(a) with respect to Borrower’s obligation to make monthly deposits into the Tax and Insurance Reserve Account, provided no Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing, Borrower may at any time during the term of the Loan deliver to Lender a Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the aggregate amount which Borrower would otherwise be required to deposit for Taxes and Insurance Premiums over the next twelve (12) months (the “Tax and Insurance Letter of Credit”), which Tax and Insurance Letter of Credit shall be subject to the provisions of Section 7.10 hereof and whereupon the Tax and Insurance Reserve Funds then on deposit in the Tax and Insurance Reserve Account shall be remitted to Borrower. In the event that Borrower delivers the Tax and Insurance Letter of Credit to Lender, Borrower shall be responsible for the payment of Taxes and Insurance Premiums and Lender shall not be responsible therefor. At all times that the Tax and Insurance Letter of Credit is being held by Lender, Borrower shall pay the Taxes and Insurance Premiums as the same become due and payable and furnish promptly to Lender receipts for the payments thereof. Borrower shall provide Lender with notice of any increases (or decreases) in the annual payments for Taxes and Insurance Premiums no less than sixty (60) days prior to any date such increase (or decrease) is first due and payable and the Tax and Insurance Letter of Credit shall be increased (or decreased) by an amount equal to such increased (or decreased) amount at least twenty (20) Business Days prior to the date such increased (or decreased) amount is first due and payable. Upon any non-payment or delinquent payment of Taxes or Insurance Premiums by Borrower, Lender shall have the right, but not the obligation, to draw on the Tax and Insurance Letter of Credit for purposes of making the payment of Taxes or Insurance Premiums on behalf of Borrower, whereupon Borrower’s obligation to make the monthly payments required under Section 7.2(a) shall be immediately reinstated.
Section 7.3. Replacement Reserve.
(a) So long as (i) the Debt Service Coverage Ratio is less than 1.50:1.00 and (ii) less than seventy-five percent (75%) of the total number of rentable square feet at the Properties is leased pursuant to Wachovia Leases having terms and conditions substantially similar to those Wachovia Leases in effect as of the Closing Date, Borrower shall pay to Lender on each Payment Date the Replacement Reserve Monthly Deposit (such amounts so deposited shall hereinafter be called the “Replacement Reserve Funds”) for replacements and repairs required to be made to each Property during the calendar year (collectively, the “Replacements”). The account in which the Replacement Reserve Funds are held shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Replacement Reserve Account.” Lender may reassess its estimate of the Replacement Reserve Monthly Deposit from time to time, and may increase same upon thirty (30) days notice to Borrower if Lender determines in its reasonable discretion that an increase is necessary to maintain the proper maintenance and operation of any of the Properties. Notwithstanding anything contained in this clause (a) to the contrary, the Replacement Reserve Funds shall not include any costs of Replacements at any Property
- 104 -
which are required to be paid by Wachovia pursuant to the Wachovia Lease applicable to such Property. At such time as (i) the Debt Service Coverage Ratio is equal to or greater than 1.75:1.00 and (ii) seventy-five percent (75%) or more of the total number of rentable square feet at the Properties is leased pursuant to Wachovia Leases having terms and conditions substantially similar to those Wachovia Leases in effect as of the Closing Date, all funds then on deposit in the Replacement Reserve Account shall be returned to Borrower, provided no Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing.
(b) Lender shall make disbursements from the Replacement Reserve Account to pay Borrower only for the costs of the Replacements at the Properties for which the Replacement Reserve Funds are being held pursuant to this Section 7.3. Lender shall not be obligated to make disbursements from the Replacement Reserve Account to reimburse Borrower for the costs of routine maintenance to any Property. For the purposes of this Section, any item for which a disbursement from the Replacement Reserve Account is requested shall hereinafter be called a “Work Item.”
(c) Lender shall, upon written request from Borrower and satisfaction of the requirements set forth in this Section 7.3, disburse to Borrower amounts from the Replacement Reserve Account necessary to pay for the actual approved costs of Replacements or to reimburse Borrower therefore, upon completion of such Replacements (or, upon partial completion) as determined by Lender. In no event shall Lender be obligated to disburse funds from the Replacement Reserve Account if an Event of Default exists.
(d) Each request for disbursement from the Replacement Reserve Account shall be in a form reasonably approved by Lender and shall specify (i) the specific Work Item for which the disbursement is requested, (ii) the quantity and price of each item purchased, if the Work Item includes the purchase or replacement of specific items, (iii) the price of all materials (grouped by type or category) used in any Work Item other than the purchase or replacement of specific items, and (iv) the cost of all contracted labor or other services applicable to each Work Item for which such request for disbursement is made. With each request Borrower shall certify that all Work Items have been made in accordance with all applicable Legal Requirements of any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the applicable Property, and in accordance with the Condominium Documents, if applicable. Each request for disbursement shall include, upon Lender’s request, copies of invoices for all items or materials purchased and all contracted labor or services provided and, unless Lender has agreed to issue joint checks as described below in connection with a particular Work Item, each request shall include evidence satisfactory to Lender of payment of all such amounts.
(e) Borrower shall pay all invoices in connection with the Work Items with respect to which a disbursement is requested prior to submitting such request for disbursement from the Replacement Reserve Account or, at the request of Borrower, Lender will issue joint checks, payable to Borrower and the contractor, supplier, materialman, mechanic, subcontractor or other party to whom payment is due in connection with a Work Item. In the case of payments made by joint check, Lender may require a waiver of lien from each Person receiving payment prior to Lender’s disbursement from the Replacement Reserve Account. Any lien waiver delivered hereunder shall conform to the requirements of applicable law and shall cover all work performed and materials supplied (including equipment and
- 105 -
fixtures) for the applicable Property by that contractor, supplier, subcontractor, mechanic or materialman through the date covered by the current reimbursement request (or, in the event that payment to such contractor, supplier, subcontractor, mechanic or materialmen is to be made by a joint check, the release of lien shall be effective through the date covered by the previous release of funds request).
(f) Borrower shall not make a request for disbursement from the Replacement Reserve Account more frequently than twice in any calendar month and (except in connection with the final disbursement) the total cost of all Replacements in any request shall not be less than $25,000.
(g) With regard to disbursements from the Replacement Reserve Account, Borrower shall make Replacements when required in order to keep the applicable Property in condition and repair consistent with other first class, office properties in the same market segment in the metropolitan area in which the applicable Property is located, and to keep the applicable Property or any portion thereof from deteriorating. Borrower shall complete all Replacements in a good and workmanlike manner as soon as practicable following the commencement of making each such Replacement.
(h) During the continuance of an Event of Default or a Low DSCR Period, Lender reserves the right, at its option, to approve all contracts or work orders with materialmen, mechanics, suppliers, subcontractors, contractors or other parties providing labor or materials in connection with the Work Items to the extent the estimated cost thereof exceeds $100,000, provided that any such approval shall not be unreasonably withheld and should be delivered to the Borrower within five (5) Business Days of any request thereof. Upon Lender’s request, Borrower shall assign any contract or subcontract to Lender.
(i) During the continuance of an Event of Default or a Low DSCR Period, if Lender determines in its reasonable discretion that any Work Item is not being performed in a workmanlike or timely manner or that any Work Item has not been completed in a workmanlike or timely manner, Lender shall have the option to withhold disbursement for such unsatisfactory Work Item and to proceed under existing contracts or to contract with third parties to complete such Work Item and to apply the Replacement Reserve Funds toward the labor and materials necessary to complete such Work Item, without providing any prior notice to Borrower and to exercise any and all other remedies available to Lender upon an Event of Default hereunder.
(j) In order to facilitate Lender’s completion or making of the Work Items, Borrower grants Lender the right to enter onto the applicable Property and perform any and all work and labor necessary to complete or make the Work Items and/or employ watchmen to protect the applicable Property from damage. All sums so expended by Lender, to the extent not from the Replacement Reserve Fund, shall be deemed to have been advanced under the Loan to Borrower and secured by the related Security Instrument. For this purpose Borrower constitutes and appoints Lender its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full power of substitution to complete or undertake the Work Items in the name of Borrower. Such power of attorney shall be deemed to be a power coupled with an interest and cannot be revoked. Borrower empowers said attorney-in-fact as follows: (i) to use any funds in the Replacement
- 106 -
Reserve Account for the purpose of making or completing the Work Items; (ii) to make such additions, changes and corrections to the Work Items as shall be necessary or desirable to complete the Work Items; (iii) to employ such contractors, subcontractors, agents, architects and inspectors as shall be required for such purposes; (iv) to pay, settle or compromise all existing bills and claims which are or may become Liens against any Property, or as may be necessary or desirable for the completion of the Work Items, or for clearance of title; (v) to execute all applications and certificates in the name of Borrower which may be required by any of the contract documents; (vi) to prosecute and defend all actions or proceedings in connection with any Property or the rehabilitation and repair of any Property; and (vii) to do any and every act which Borrower might do in its own behalf to fulfill the terms of this Agreement.
(k) Nothing in this Section 7.3 shall: (i) make Lender responsible for making or completing the Work Items; (ii) require Lender to expend funds in addition to Replacement Reserve Funds to make or complete any Work Item; (iii) obligate Lender to proceed with the Work Items; or (iv) obligate Lender to demand from Borrower additional sums to make or complete any Work Item.
(l) During the continuance of an Event of Default or a Low DSCR Period, Lender may require an inspection of any Property at Borrower’s expense prior to making a monthly disbursement from the Replacement Reserve Account in order to verify completion of the Work Items for which reimbursement is sought. Lender may require that such inspection be conducted by an appropriate independent qualified professional selected by Lender and/or may require a copy of a certificate of completion by an independent qualified professional acceptable to Lender prior to the disbursement of any amounts from the Replacement Reserve Account. Borrower shall pay the expense of the inspection as required hereunder, whether such inspection is conducted by Lender or by an independent qualified professional.
(m) The Work Items and all materials, equipment, fixtures, or any other item comprising a part of any Work Item shall be constructed, installed or completed, as applicable, free and clear of all mechanic’s, materialman’s or other liens (except for those Liens existing on the date hereof which have been approved in writing by Lender).
(n) Before each disbursement from the Replacement Reserve Account in excess of $250,000, Lender may require Borrower to provide Lender with a search of title to the applicable Property effective to the date of the disbursement, which search shows that no mechanic’s or materialmen’s liens or other liens of any nature have been placed against the applicable Property since the date of recordation of the related Security Instrument and that title to the applicable Property is free and clear of all Liens (other than the lien of the related Security Instrument and any other Liens previously approved in writing by Lender, if any).
(o) All Work Items shall comply with all applicable Legal Requirements of all Governmental Authorities having jurisdiction over the applicable Property, the terms and conditions of the Condominium Documents, if applicable, and applicable insurance requirements including, without limitation, applicable building codes, special use permits, environmental regulations, and requirements of insurance underwriters.
- 107 -
(p) In addition to any insurance required under the Loan Documents, Borrower shall provide or cause to be provided workmen’s compensation insurance, builder’s risk, and public liability insurance and other insurance to the extent required under applicable law in connection with a particular Work Item. All such policies shall be in form and amount reasonably satisfactory to Lender. All such policies which can be endorsed with standard mortgagee clauses making loss payable to Lender or its assigns shall be so endorsed. Certified copies of such policies shall be delivered to Lender.
(q) During the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender may use the Replacement Reserve Funds (or any portion thereof) for any purpose, including but not limited to completion of the Work Items or for any other repair or replacement to any Property or toward payment of the Debt in such order, proportion and priority as Lender may determine in its sole discretion.
(r) The insufficiency of any balance in the Replacement Reserve Account shall not relieve Borrower from its obligation to fulfill all preservation and maintenance covenants in the Loan Documents.
(s) Borrower shall indemnify Lender and hold Lender harmless from and against any and all actions, suits, claims, demands, liabilities, losses, damages, obligations and costs and expenses (including litigation costs and reasonable attorneys fees and expenses) arising from or in any way connected with the performance of the Replacements. Borrower shall assign to Lender all rights and claims Borrower may have against all persons or entities supplying labor or materials in connection with the Work Items; provided, however, that Lender may not pursue any such right or claim unless an Event of Default has occurred and remains uncured.
(t) Intentionally Deleted.
(u) At Borrower’s option, in lieu of the requirements set forth in Section 7.3(a) with respect to Borrower’s obligation to make monthly deposits into the Replacement Reserve Account, provided no Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing, Borrower may at any time during the term of the Loan deliver a Letter of Credit to Lender in an amount equal to the product of twelve (12) multiplied by the Replacement Reserve Monthly Deposit (the “Replacement Reserve Letter of Credit”), which Replacement Reserve Letter of Credit shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 7.3(u) and Section 7.10 hereof.
(i) Upon the expiration of each calendar quarter subsequent to Borrower’s delivery to Lender of the Replacement Reserve Letter of Credit, Borrower shall be entitled to reduce the face amount of the Replacement Reserve Letter of Credit by an amount equal to the lesser of (A) the amount of actual approved costs of Replacements paid by Borrower during such calendar quarter and (B) twenty five percent (25%) of the original face amount of the Replacement Reserve Letter of Credit (as the same may be adjusted on each anniversary date as set forth in this clause (i)). Borrower shall be entitled to reduce the face amount of the Replacement Reserve Letter of Credit upon the delivery by Borrower to Lender of a request for such reduction made
- 108 -
identically to the request required to be made by Borrower before Replacement Reserve Funds are disbursed from the Replacement Reserve Account as provided in Section 7.3(d) and such other evidence as Lender shall reasonably request demonstrating the amount of funds expended by Borrower for such actual approved Replacement costs during the applicable period and that the applicable Work Items have been completed. If Borrower shall have previously reduced the face amount of the Replacement Reserve Letter of Credit, on or prior to the next anniversary date of the issuance of the Replacement Reserve Letter of Credit, Borrower shall increase the face amount of the Replacement Reserve Letter of Credit to an amount equal to the product of twelve (12) multiplied by the Replacement Reserve Monthly Deposit. If, as of any such anniversary date, Borrower fails to increase the amount of the Replacement Reserve Letter of Credit as required pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, then (A) Lender shall be entitled to draw immediately upon the then remaining amount available under the Replacement Reserve Letter of Credit (if any) and deposit such funds into the Replacement Reserve Account and (B) Borrower’s option to deliver the Replacement Reserve Letter of Credit pursuant to this Section 7.3(u) shall immediately cease and Borrower’s obligation to make monthly contributions into the Replacement Reserve Account in accordance with Section 7.3(a) shall be immediately reinstated.
(ii) In the event that Borrower delivers the Replacement Reserve Letter of Credit to Lender, Borrower shall be responsible for the payment of all approved Replacement costs and Lender shall not be responsible for disbursing funds to Borrower therefor.
(iii) Upon any failure of Borrower to pay timely for any approved Replacement costs, Lender shall have the right, but not the obligation, to draw on the Replacement Reserve Letter of Credit for purposes of making the payment of such approved Replacement costs on behalf of Borrower, whereupon Borrower’s obligation to make monthly contributions into the Replacement Reserve Account in accordance with Section 7.3(a) shall be immediately reinstated.
Section 7.4. Immediate Repair Reserve.
(a) On the Closing Date, Borrower shall deposit with Lender the amount set forth on such Schedule 9 attached hereto (the “Immediate Repair Reserve Funds”). The account in which the Immediate Repair Reserve Funds are held shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Immediate Repairs Reserve Account.” Borrower shall perform the repairs at the Properties as set forth on Schedule 9 (such repairs shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Immediate Repairs”) on or before the respective deadline for each Immediate Repair as set forth on Schedule 9.
(b) Lender shall disburse to Borrower the Immediate Repair Reserve Funds upon satisfaction by Borrower of each of the following conditions: (a) Borrower shall submit a request in writing signed by Borrower for payment to Lender at least ten (10) days prior to the date on which Borrower requests such payment be made and specifies the Immediate Repair or Repairs to be paid, which request shall set forth (i) that all Immediate Repairs to be funded by the requested disbursement have been completed in a good and workmanlike manner and in accordance with all applicable Legal Requirements and the
- 109 -
applicable Ground Lease, such certificate to be accompanied by a copy of any license, permit or other approval by any Governmental Authority required in connection with the Immediate Repairs, (ii) the identity of each Person that supplied materials or labor in connection with the Immediate Repairs to be funded or reimbursed by the requested disbursement, and (iii) that each such Person has been paid in full or will be paid in full upon such disbursement, such request to be accompanied by lien waivers or other evidence of payment satisfactory to Lender (b) on the date such request is received by Lender and on the date such payment is to be made, no Event of Default shall exist and remain uncured, and (c) Lender shall have received such other evidence as Lender shall reasonably request that the Immediate Repairs to be funded by the requested disbursement have been completed and are paid for or will be paid upon such disbursement to Borrower. Borrower shall not make a request for disbursement from the Immediate Repairs Reserve Account more frequently than twice in any calendar month and (except in connection with the final disbursement) the total cost of all Immediate Repairs in any request shall not be less than $25,000.
(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in the first sentence of Section 7.4(a), at Borrower’s option, provided no Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing, Borrower may at any time during the term of the Loan deliver a Letter of Credit to Lender in an amount equal to the amount of funds then on deposit or required to be on deposit with Lender in the Immediate Repairs Reserve Account (the “Immediate Repairs Letter of Credit”), which Immediate Repairs Letter of Credit shall be subject to the provisions of Section 7.10 hereof and shall be maintained in the amount that would otherwise be required to be maintained in cash in the Immediate Repairs Reserve Account. In the event that Borrower delivers the Immediate Repairs Letter of Credit to Lender, Borrower shall be responsible for the payment of all Immediate Repair costs and Lender shall not be responsible for disbursing funds to Borrower therefor. In the event that Borrower delivers the Immediate Repairs Letter of Credit to Lender in replacement of funds then on deposit with Lender in the Immediate Repairs Reserve Account, then, provided no Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing, all funds then on deposit in the Immediate Repairs Reserve Account shall be returned to Borrower.
Section 7.5. Rollover Reserve.
(a) Borrower shall deliver or cause to be delivered to Lender, as and when paid by any tenant, any payment or other cash consideration payable by such tenant in connection with the termination or surrender of such tenant’s Lease, which payment or other cash consideration is either (i) in excess of $50,000 or (ii) payable in connection with any Lease demising more than 2,500 rentable square feet of space at any Property (such amounts so delivered shall hereinafter be called the “Rollover Reserve Funds”), provided, however, in the event that the tenant fails to pay such termination payment as and when required by the terms of the applicable Lease, Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts to collect such payment from the applicable tenant. The account in which the Rollover Reserve Funds are held shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Rollover Reserve Account.” The Rollover Reserve Funds shall be disbursed from the Rollover Reserve Account in connection with the payment of (A) tenant improvements and leasing commissions incurred by Borrower from time to time in connection with the leasing or re-leasing of the Properties and/or (B) Capital Expenditures or as otherwise agreed by Borrower and Lender. Any Rollover Reserve Funds
- 110 -
remaining in the Rollover Reserve Account after the Debt has been paid in full shall be returned to Borrower. The Branch Agreement Reserve Funds shall not be held in the Rollover Reserve Account, but rather shall be held in the Branch Agreement Reserve Account pursuant to Section 7.7 hereof, and the Branch Agreement Reserve Funds shall not be subject to this Section 7.5, but rather shall be subject to Section 7.7 hereof.
(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in the first sentence of Section 7.5(a), at Borrower’s option, provided no Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing, Borrower may at any time during the term of the Loan deliver a Letter of Credit to Lender in an amount equal to the amount of funds then on deposit or required to be on deposit with Lender in the Rollover Reserve Account (the “Rollover Reserve Letter of Credit”), which Rollover Reserve Letter of Credit shall be subject to the provisions of Section 7.10 hereof and shall be maintained in the amount that would otherwise be required to be maintained in cash in the Rollover Reserve Account. In the event that Borrower delivers the Rollover Reserve Letter of Credit to Lender, Borrower shall be responsible for the payment of all tenant improvements and leasing commissions incurred in connection with the leasing or re-leasing of the Properties and/or Capital Expenditures and Lender shall not be responsible for disbursing funds to Borrower therefor. In the event that Borrower delivers the Rollover Reserve Letter of Credit to Lender in replacement of funds then on deposit with Lender in the Rollover Reserve Account, then, provided no Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing, all funds then on deposit in the Rollover Reserve Account shall be returned to Borrower.
Section 7.6. Low DSCR Reserve. If a Low DSCR Period shall have commenced, Borrower shall pay to Lender on the immediately succeeding Payment Date the amount required pursuant to Section 4.1(b)(xi) of the Cash Management Agreement. On or prior to the second Payment Date occurring immediately after the commencement of a Low DSCR Period, Borrower shall deposit with Lender either (x) Cash (such Cash so deposited, together with the funds paid by Borrower pursuant to the preceding sentence hereof, shall hereinafter be called the “Low DSCR Reserve Funds”) or (y) a Letter of Credit (the “Low DSCR Letter of Credit”), in either case, in an amount determined by Lender (the “Low DSCR Cash Collateral Amount”) equal to the amount necessary to cause the Debt Service Coverage Ratio to equal at least 1.10:1.00 as of the date such Low DSCR Period commenced (each of clauses (x) and (y), the “Low DSCR Cash Collateral”); provided, that if Borrower elects to deposit with Lender Cash pursuant to clause (x) above, Lender’s determination of the Low DSCR Cash Collateral Amount shall take into account the Low DSCR Reserve Funds previously paid by Borrower pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 7.6; and provided, further that Lender may reassess the Low DSCR Cash Collateral Amount, and may require Borrower to increase the amount of the Low DSCR Cash Collateral required to be deposited with Lender pursuant to this Section 7.6, if in Lender’s determination an increase thereof is necessary to cause the Debt Service Coverage Ratio to equal at least 1.10:1.00 as of the conclusion of any calendar quarter subsequent to the commencement of a Low DSCR Period. The account in which the Low DSCR Reserve Funds are held shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Low DSCR Reserve Account.” All Low DSCR Reserve Funds and any Low DSCR Letter of Credit shall be held by Lender as additional collateral for the Debt. The Low DSCR Letter of Credit shall be subject to the provisions of Section 7.10 hereof and shall be maintained in the amount that would otherwise be required to be maintained in Cash. Upon Borrower’s deposit with Lender

of the Low DSCR Letter of Credit, provided no Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing, Lender shall return to Borrower the Low DSCR Reserve Funds then on deposit in the Low DSCR Reserve Account. Lender shall have the right, but not the obligation, at any time during the continuance of an Event of Default, in its sole and absolute discretion to (a) apply all or any portion of the Low DSCR Reserve Funds then on deposit with Lender, and (b) draw upon in full or in part the Low DSCR Letter of Credit and apply the funds thereof, in either case, to the Debt, in such order and in such manner as Lender shall elect in its sole and absolute discretion, including to make a prepayment of the Loan (which prepayment made during the continuance of an Event of Default shall include an amount equal to the Yield Maintenance Premium that would be required if a Total Defeasance Event had occurred in an amount equal to the outstanding principal amount of the Loan to be prepaid). Any Low DSCR Reserve Funds not previously disbursed or applied by Lender, and any Low DSCR Letter of Credit then being held by Lender, shall be returned to Borrower upon Lender’s determination that the Debt Service Coverage Ratio has been equal to at least 1.10:1.00 at the conclusion of any two consecutive calendar quarters.
Section 7.7. Branch Agreement Reserve.
(a) Borrower shall deliver or cause to be delivered to Lender, as and when paid by Sponsor, any payment or other cash consideration payable by Sponsor to Borrower pursuant to the Guaranty in connection with any Property lease assumption (each such Property, a “BALA Property”) pursuant to the Branch Agreement (such amounts so delivered shall hereinafter be called the “Branch Agreement Reserve Funds”). The account in which the Branch Agreement Reserve Funds are held shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Branch Agreement Reserve Account.” The Branch Agreement Reserve Funds shall not be held in the Rollover Reserve Account, and shall not be subject to Section 7.5 hereof. If Lender reasonably determines that (a) the Branch Agreement Reserve Funds attributable to any BALA Property are sufficient to pay all costs and expenses which would be incurred in connection with a partial defeasance of such BALA Property and (b) all conditions set forth in Section 2.4.2 can be satisfied, Borrower may elect, at its option, to use such Branch Agreement Reserve Funds applicable to such BALA Property to conduct a partial defeasance in accordance with Section 2.4.2, with the excess of such Branch Agreement Reserve Funds, if any, to be disbursed to Borrower. If (i) Borrower elects not to conduct such partial defeasance or (ii) Lender reasonably determines that either (a) the Branch Agreement Reserve Funds attributable to any BALA Property are not sufficient to pay all costs and expenses which would be incurred in connection with a partial defeasance of such BALA Property, or (b) the conditions of Section 2.4.2 cannot be satisfied, then such Branch Agreement Reserve Funds shall remain in the Branch Agreement Reserve Account and shall be disbursed therefrom in connection with the tenant improvements and leasing commissions reasonably approved by Lender and incurred by Borrower from time to time in connection with the re-leasing of such BALA Property; provided, that, if Borrower delivers to Lender a replacement Lease for such BALA Property executed by an Acceptable Replacement Tenant, as tenant thereunder, then Lender shall direct Agent to promptly thereafter disburse to Borrower the undisbursed Branch Agreement Reserve Funds applicable to such BALA Property then remaining in the Branch Agreement Reserve Account; provided, further, that, if Borrower delivers to Lender a replacement Lease for such BALA Property executed by a financial institution or other creditworthy entity which is not an Acceptable Replacement Tenant, as tenant thereunder, then
- 112 -
Lender shall direct Agent to promptly thereafter disburse to Borrower solely from the Branch Agreement Reserve Funds attributable to such BALA Property (but only to the extent of such Branch Agreement Reserve Funds) an amount equal to the amount by which the sum of (x) the present value of the rent and other charges payable under such replacement Lease (without giving effect to any Lease term extensions and less any tenant improvement costs payable by landlord thereunder) plus (y) the Branch Agreement Reserve Funds attributable to such Property exceeds the present value of rent and other charges payable under the remaining initial term of the Wachovia Lease for which the such Branch Agreement Reserve Funds were paid to Borrower, as calculated by Lender using an appropriate discount rate commensurate with the creditworthiness of the financial institution or other creditworthy entity tenant under such replacement Lease.
(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in the first sentence of Section 7.7(a), at Borrower’s option, provided no Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing, Borrower may at any time during the term of the Loan deliver a Letter of Credit to Lender in an amount equal to the amount of funds then on deposit or required to be on deposit with Lender in the Branch Agreement Reserve Account (the “Branch Agreement Reserve Letter of Credit”), which Branch Agreement Reserve Letter of Credit shall be subject to the provisions of Section 7.10 hereof and shall be maintained in the amount that would otherwise be required to be maintained in cash in the Branch Agreement Reserve Account. In the event that Borrower delivers the Branch Agreement Reserve Letter of Credit to Lender, Borrower shall be responsible for the payment of all tenant improvements and leasing commissions incurred in connection with the leasing or re-leasing of the Properties and/or Capital Expenditures and Lender shall not be responsible for disbursing funds to Borrower therefor. In the event that Borrower delivers the Branch Agreement Letter of Credit to Lender in replacement of funds then on deposit with Lender in the Branch Agreement Reserve Account, then, provided no Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing, all funds then on deposit in the Branch Agreement Reserve Account shall be returned to Borrower.
Section 7.8. Special Release Reserve. Pursuant to Section 2.5.2(c)(ii) or (iii), Borrower may be required to deposit with Lender from time to time the Additional Release Amount with respect to any or all of the Special Release Properties, together with Lender’s estimate of the Yield Maintenance Premium that would be required in connection with a prepayment of the Loan in an amount equal to such Additional Release Amount or the total costs and expenses associated with a partial defeasance of the Loan in an amount equal to such Additional Release Amount pursuant to Section 2.4.2, as applicable (such amounts so deposited in the form of Cash shall hereinafter be called the “Special Release Reserve Funds” and any Letter of Credit so deposited, the “Special Release Letter of Credit”). The account in which the Special Release Reserve Funds are held shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Special Release Reserve Account.” The Special Release Letter of Credit shall be subject to the provisions of Section 7.10 hereof and shall be maintained in the amount that would otherwise be required to be maintained in Cash. All Special Release Reserve Funds and any Special Release Letter of Credit shall be held by Lender as additional collateral for the Debt. If Borrower receives notice that Wachovia is exercising its option under the Master Agreement and/or any Wachovia Lease to terminate any leased premises in any of the Properties as a result of Wachovia’s election to lease additional space at any Special Release Property which
- 113 -
has been previously released from the lien of the applicable Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents pursuant to Section 2.5.2, provided no Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing, Borrower shall (a) notify Lender to continue to hold all Special Release Reserve Funds and any Special Release Letter of Credit as additional collateral for the Debt, or (b) if such notice from Wachovia is received by Borrower after the Release Date and prior to the Lockout Release Date, partially defease an amount of the Loan equal to the Additional Release Amount for such Special Release Property, and satisfy all of the requirements of Section 2.4.2 with respect to such partial defeasance, (c) if such notice from Wachovia is received by Borrower on or prior to the Release Date, direct Lender to apply the Additional Release Amount for such Special Release Property, together with the Yield Maintenance Premium required pursuant to this Agreement to be paid by Borrower in connection with such prepayment, to the Debt, which Lender may do in such order and in such manner as Lender shall elect in its sole and absolute discretion or (d) conduct a Property Substitution in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 2.6. If at any time Lender reasonably determines that any amount paid by Borrower and being held in the Special Release Reserve Account which represents Lender’s estimate of the Yield Maintenance Premium that would be required in connection with a prepayment of the Loan in amount equal to any Additional Release Amount or the total costs and expenses associated with a partial defeasance of the Loan in an amount equal to any Additional Release Amount pursuant to Section 2.4.2 is not or will not be sufficient to pay either such Yield Maintenance Premium or such partial defeasance costs and expenses, as applicable, Lender shall notify Borrower of such determination and Borrower shall pay to Lender on the Payment Date immediately following such notification the amount that Lender estimates is sufficient to make up the deficiency. Lender shall have the right, but not the obligation, at any time during the continuance of an Event of Default, in its sole and absolute discretion to (a) apply all or any portion of the Special Release Reserve Funds then on deposit with Lender, and (b) draw upon in full or in part the Special Release Letter of Credit and apply the funds thereof, in either case, to the Debt, in such order and in such manner as Lender shall elect in its sole and absolute discretion, including to make a prepayment of the Loan (which prepayment made during the continuance of an Event of Default shall include an amount equal to the Yield Maintenance Premium that would be required if a Total Defeasance Event had occurred in an amount equal to the outstanding principal amount of the Loan to be prepaid). Any Additional Release Amount applied to the Debt by operation of this Section 7.8 shall be so applied on a Payment Date.
Section 7.9. Reserve Funds, Generally. Borrower grants to Lender a first priority perfected security interest in each of the Reserve Funds and any and all monies now or hereafter deposited in each Reserve Fund as additional security for payment of the Debt. Until expended or applied in accordance herewith, the Reserve Funds shall constitute additional security for the Debt. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender may, in addition to any and all other rights and remedies available to Lender, apply any sums then present in any or all of the Reserve Funds to the payment of the Debt in any order in its sole discretion. The Reserve Funds shall be held in interest bearing accounts in accordance with the terms of the Cash Management Agreement and all earnings or interest on a Reserve Fund shall be added to and become a part of such Reserve Fund and, provided no Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing, all such earnings or interest shall be disbursed on a quarterly basis to Borrower. Borrower shall not, without obtaining the prior written consent of Lender, further pledge, assign or grant any security interest in any Reserve Fund or the monies deposited
- 114 -
therein or permit any lien or encumbrance to attach thereto, or any levy to be made thereon, or any UCC 1 Financing Statements, except those naming Lender as the secured party, to be filed with respect thereto. Any funds remaining in any of the Accounts (as defined in the Cash Management Agreement) upon satisfaction in full of the Debt or upon a Total Defeasance Event shall be (i) if the Mezzanine Loan (or any portion thereof) remains outstanding, deposited into the Mezzanine Cash Collateral Account to be disbursed in accordance with the terms of the Mezzanine Loan Documents, or (ii) if the Mezzanine Loan has been paid in full, returned to Borrower pursuant to written instructions of Borrower.
Section 7.10. Letters of Credit, Generally.
(a) Borrower may deliver to Lender a Letter of Credit in accordance with the provisions of this Section 7.10 in lieu of the deposits required to be made or previously made in accordance with Sections 7.1(a), 7.2(a). 7.3(a), 7.4(a), 7.5(a), 7.6(a), 7.7(a) and 7.8 (the “Applicable Accounts”); provided that any such Letter of Credit shall be accompanied by an instrument reasonably acceptable to Lender whereby the applicant/obligor under such Letter of Credit shall have waived all rights of subrogation against Borrower thereunder until the Debt has been paid in full. The aggregate amount of any Letter of Credit and cash on deposit with respect to the Applicable Accounts shall at all times be as provided pursuant to Sections 7.1(b), 7.2(b). 7.3(u), 7.4(c), 7.5(b), 7.6(a), 7.7(b) and 7.8. Borrower shall provide Lender no less than thirty (30) days prior notice of Borrower’s election to deliver a Letter of Credit to Lender and Borrower shall pay to Lender upon demand all of Lender’s costs and expenses in connection therewith, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees. If Borrower delivers to Lender a Letter of Credit in accordance with the provisions of this Section 7.10 in lieu of the deposits required to be made or previously made in any Applicable Account, Borrower shall deliver to Lender a New Insolvency Opinion if any of the repayment obligations under such Letter of Credit are borne by any Affiliate of Borrower. Neither Borrower nor the applicant/obligor under any Letter of Credit shall be entitled to draw upon any such Letter of Credit. Upon thirty (30) days notice to Lender, Borrower may replace a Letter of Credit with a cash deposit to any Applicable Account in the amount required pursuant to the applicable Section hereof only if the applicable Letter of Credit has been outstanding for more than six (6) months. In addition, if Borrower shall, at any time, receive notice that the bank issuing any Letter of Credit has ceased to be an Approved Bank, before being required to replace such Letter of Credit with a cash deposit as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, Borrower shall have ten (10) Business Days after receipt of notice to replace such Letter of Credit with another Letter of Credit in the same face amount as the replaced Letter of Credit, which new Letter of Credit shall be issued by an Approved Bank. If Borrower elects to replace a Letter of Credit with a cash deposit in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof, Borrower shall deposit with Lender an amount equal to the amount that would have accumulated in any Applicable Account if such Letter of Credit had not been delivered.
(b) Each Letter of Credit delivered under this Agreement shall be additional security for the payment of the Debt. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender shall have the right, at its option, to draw on any Letter of Credit and to apply all or any part thereof to the payment of the items for which such Letter of Credit was established or to apply each such Letter of Credit to the payment of the Debt in such order, proportion or priority as Lender may determine. Any such application to
- 115 -
the Debt after an Event of Default that remains uncured shall be subject to the payment by Borrower of an amount equal to the Yield Maintenance Premium that would be required if a Total Defeasance Event had occurred in an amount equal to the outstanding principal amount of the Loan to be satisfied or prepaid. On the Maturity Date, any such Letter of Credit may be applied to reduce the Debt.
(c) In addition to any other right Lender may have to draw upon a Letter of Credit pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Lender shall have the following additional rights to draw in full any Letter of Credit: (i) with respect to any evergreen Letter of Credit, if Lender has received a notice from the issuing bank thereof that such Letter of Credit will not be renewed and a substitute Letter of Credit (or appropriate cash collateral pursuant to Section 7.10(a)) is not provided at least thirty (30) days prior to the date on which such Letter of Credit is scheduled to expire, notwithstanding any Property Substitution elected by Borrower but not completed pursuant to Section 7.8 by such date; (ii) with respect to any Letter of Credit with a stated expiration date, if Lender has not received a substitute Letter of Credit (or appropriate cash collateral pursuant to Section 7.10(a)) at least thirty (30) days prior to the date on which such Letter of Credit is scheduled to expire, notwithstanding any Property Substitution elected by Borrower but not completed pursuant to Section 7.8 by such date; (iii) upon receipt of a notice from the issuing bank that such Letter of Credit will be terminated (except if the termination of such Letter of Credit is permitted pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement or a substitute Letter of Credit or appropriate cash collateral pursuant to Section 7.10(a) is provided), notwithstanding any Property Substitution elected by Borrower but not completed pursuant to Section 7.8; or (iv) if Lender has received notice that the bank issuing such Letter of Credit shall cease to be an Approved Bank and Borrower shall have not replaced such Letter of Credit with a Letter of Credit issued by an Approved Bank (or appropriate cash collateral pursuant to Section 7.10(a)) within ten (10) Business Days after notice thereof, notwithstanding any Property Substitution elected by Borrower but not completed pursuant to Section 7.8 by such date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above in this Section 7.10(c), Lender is not obligated to draw on any Letter of Credit upon the happening of an event specified in clauses (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) above and shall not be liable for any losses incurred by Borrower due to the insolvency of the bank issuing any Letter of Credit if Lender has not drawn on such Letter of Credit.
VIII. DEFAULTS

Lease, in the observance or performance of any term, covenant or condition of the Ground Lease on the part of Borrower, to be observed or performed (unless waived by the ground lessor under such Ground Lease), (C) if any one or more of the events referred to in any Ground Lease shall occur which would cause the Ground Lease to terminate without notice or action by the ground lessor under such Ground Lease or which would entitle the ground lessor to terminate such Ground Lease and the term thereof by giving notice to Borrower, as tenant thereunder (unless waived by the ground lessor under such Ground Lease), (D) if the leasehold estate created by any Ground Lease shall be surrendered or any Ground Lease shall be terminated or canceled for any reason or under any circumstances whatsoever or (E) if any of the terms, covenants or conditions of any Ground Lease shall in any manner be modified, changed, supplemented, altered, or amended without the consent of Lender;

(b) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default described in clauses (vi), (vii) or (viii) above) and at any time thereafter, in addition to any other rights or remedies available to it pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or at law or in equity, Lender may take such action, without notice or demand, that Lender deems advisable to protect and enforce its rights against Borrower and in and to the Properties, including, without limitation, declaring the Debt to be immediately due and payable, and Lender may enforce or avail itself of any or all rights or remedies provided in the
- 118 -
Loan Documents against Borrower and any and all of the Properties, including, without limitation, all rights or remedies available at law or in equity; and upon any Event of Default described in clauses (vi), (vii) or (viii) above, the Debt and all other obligations of Borrower hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall immediately and automatically become due and payable, without notice or demand, and Borrower hereby expressly waives any such notice or demand, anything contained herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding.
Section 8.2. Remedies.
(a) Upon the occurrence of and during the continuation of an Event of Default, all or any one or more of the rights, powers, privileges and other remedies available to Lender against Borrower under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents executed and delivered by, or applicable to, Borrower 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 with respect to any Property. 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 sole discretion, to the fullest extent permitted by law, without impairing or otherwise affecting the other rights and remedies of Lender permitted by law, equity or contract or as set forth herein or in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Borrower agrees that if an Event of Default is continuing (i) 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 Properties and each Security Instrument has been foreclosed, sold and/or otherwise realized upon in satisfaction of the Debt or the Debt has been paid in full.
(b) With respect to Borrower and the Properties, nothing contained herein or in any other Loan Document shall be construed as requiring Lender to resort to any particular Property for the satisfaction of any of the Debt in preference or priority to the Properties, and Lender may seek satisfaction out of all or less than all of the Properties or any part of any Property, in its absolute discretion in respect of the Debt. In addition, Lender shall have the right from time to time to partially foreclose one or more of the Security Instruments in any manner and for any amounts secured by the Security Instruments then due and payable as determined by Lender in its sole discretion including, without limitation, the following circumstances: (i) in the event Borrower defaults beyond any applicable grace period in the payment of one or more scheduled payments of principal and interest, Lender may foreclose one or more of the Security Instruments to recover such delinquent payments, or (ii) in the event Lender elects to accelerate less than the entire outstanding principal balance of the Loan, Lender may foreclose one or more of the Security Instruments to recover so much of the principal balance of the Loan as Lender may accelerate and such other sums secured by the Security Instruments as Lender may elect. Notwithstanding one or more partial foreclosures, the Properties shall remain subject to the Security Instruments to secure payment of sums secured by the Security Instruments and not previously recovered.
- 119 -
(c) Without limitation to any of the foregoing remedies, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, 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 (the “Severed Loan Documents”) in such denominations as Lender shall determine in its sole discretion for purposes of evidencing and enforcing its rights and remedies provided hereunder. Borrower shall 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 the aforesaid severance, Borrower ratifying all that its said attorney shall do by virtue thereof; provided, however, Lender shall not make or execute any such documents under such power until three (3) days after notice has been given to Borrower by Lender of Lender’s intent to exercise its rights under such power.
Section 8.3. Remedies Cumulative; Waivers. The rights, powers and remedies of Lender under this Agreement shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any other right, power or remedy which Lender may have against Borrower pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or existing at law or in equity or otherwise. Lender’s rights, powers and remedies may be pursued singly, concurrently or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Lender may determine in Lender’s sole discretion. No delay or omission to exercise any remedy, right or power accruing upon an Event of Default shall impair any such remedy, right or power or shall be construed as a waiver thereof, but any such remedy, right or power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. A waiver of one Event of Default with respect to Borrower shall not be construed to be a waiver of any subsequent Event of Default by Borrower or to impair any remedy, right or power consequent thereon.
IX. SPECIAL PROVISIONS
Section 9.1. Sale of Security Instruments and Securitization.
(a) Lender shall have the right (i) to sell, pledge, assign or otherwise transfer the Loan or any portion thereof as a whole loan, (ii) to sell participation interests in the Loan, (iii) to securitize the Loan or any portion thereof in a single asset securitization or a pooled loan securitization or (iv) further divide the Loan into two or more separate notes or components. (The transactions referred to in clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) shall hereinafter be referred to collectively as “Secondary Market Transactions” and the transactions referred to in clause (iii) shall hereinafter be referred to as a “Securitization.” Any certificates, notes or other securities issued in connection with a Securitization are hereinafter referred to as “Securities”).

(ii) provide opinions of counsel, which may be relied upon by Lender, the Rating Agencies and their respective counsel, agents and representatives, as to non-consolidation, or any other opinion customary in Secondary Market Transactions or reasonably required by the Rating Agencies with respect to the Properties and Borrower and Affiliates, which counsel and opinions shall be satisfactory to Lender and the Rating Agencies;
(iii) provide updated, as of the closing date of the Secondary Market Transaction, representations and warranties made in the Loan Documents and such additional representations and warranties as the Rating Agencies may reasonably require; and
(iv) execute amendments to the Loan Documents and Borrower’s organizational documents reasonably requested by Lender; provided, however, that Borrower shall not be required to modify or amend any Loan Document if such modification or amendment would (A) change the interest rate, the stated maturity or the amortization of principal as set forth herein or in the Note, (B) modify or amend any other material economic or other material term of the Loan, (C) result in operational changes that are unduly burdensome, or (D) materially increase Borrower’s obligations under the Loan Documents.

- 121 -
the requirements of Sections 210.3-01 and 210.3-02 of Regulation S-X (all of such financial statements, collectively, the “Standard Statements”); provided, however, with respect to any Property that has been acquired by Borrower from an unaffiliated third party (an “Acquired Property”) and as to which the other conditions set forth in Section 210.3-14 of Regulation S-X for the provision of financial statements in accordance with such Section have been met (other than any Property that is a hotel, nursing home or other property that would be deemed to constitute a business and not real estate under Regulation S-X and as to which the other conditions set forth in Section 210.3-05 of Regulation S-X for provision of financial statements in accordance with such Section have been met (a “Business Property”)), in lieu of the Standard Statements otherwise required by this Section 9.1(c)(i), Borrower shall instead provide the financial statements required by such Section 210.3-14 of Regulation S-X; provided, further, however, with respect to any Business Property which is an Acquired Property, Borrower shall instead provide the financial statements required by Section 210.3-05 (such Section 210.3-14 or Section 210.3-05 financial statements referred to herein as “Acquired Property Statements”).
(ii) Not later than 30 days after the end of each fiscal quarter following the Closing Date, a balance sheet of each Property (individually and on an aggregate basis) as of the end of such fiscal quarter, meeting the requirements of Section 210.3-01 of Regulation S-X, and statements of income and statements of cash flows of each Property (individually and on an aggregate basis) for the period commencing on the day following the last day of the most recent Fiscal Year and ending on the date of such balance sheet and for the corresponding period of the most recent Fiscal Year, meeting the requirements of Section 210.3-02 of Regulation S-X (provided, that if for such corresponding period of the most recent Fiscal Year Acquired Property Statements were permitted to be provided hereunder pursuant to paragraph (i) above, Borrower shall instead provide Acquired Property Statements for such corresponding period). If requested by Lender, Borrower shall also provide “summarized financial information,” as defined in Section 210.1-02(bb) of Regulation S-X, with respect to such quarterly financial statements.

If requested by Lender, Borrower shall provide summarized financial information with respect to such annual financial statements.

- 122 -
(v) In the event Lender determines, in connection with a Securitization, that the financial statements required in order to comply with Regulation S-X or Legal Requirements are other than as provided herein, then notwithstanding the provisions of this Section, Lender may request, and Borrower shall promptly provide, such combination of Acquired Property Statements and/or Standard Statements as may be necessary for such compliance.
(vi) Any other or additional financial statements, or financial, statistical or operating information, as shall be required pursuant to Regulation S-X or other Legal Requirements in connection with any Disclosure Document or any filing under or pursuant to the Exchange Act in connection with or relating to a Securitization (hereinafter, an “Exchange Act Filing”) or as shall otherwise be reasonably requested by Lender to meet disclosure, rating agency or marketing requirements.
All financial statements provided by Borrower pursuant to this Section 9.1(c) shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP, and shall meet the requirements of Regulation S-X and other applicable Legal Requirements. All financial statements relating to a Fiscal Year shall be audited by the independent accountants in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, Regulation S-X and all other applicable Legal Requirements, shall be accompanied by the manually executed report of the independent accountants thereon, which report shall meet the requirements of Regulation S-X and all other applicable Legal Requirements, and shall be further accompanied by a manually executed written consent of the independent accountants, in form and substance acceptable to Lender, to the inclusion of such financial statements in any Disclosure Document and any Exchange Act Filing and to the use of the name of such independent accountants and the reference to such independent accountants as “experts” in any Disclosure Document and Exchange Act Filing, all of which shall be provided at the same time as the related financial statements are required to be provided. All other financial statements shall be certified by the chief financial officer of Borrower, which certification shall state that such financial statements meet the requirements set forth in the first sentence of this paragraph.
(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, Lender reserves the right at any time prior to a Securitization to modify the allocation of the outstanding principal balances, interest rates, payment schedules and other related terms of the Loan and the Mezzanine Loan, and Borrower covenants and agrees to (i) execute amendments to the Loan Documents, the Mezzanine Loan Documents and Borrower’s and Mezzanine Borrower’s organizational documents reasonably requested by Lender in connection with any such modification(s), (ii) provide Lender with opinions of counsel in form and substance substantially similar to those delivered by Borrower to Lender on the Closing Date and (iii) deliver to Lender title insurance endorsements to the Title Insurance Policies reasonably requested by Lender, provided that such modification(s) shall not (a) increase the weighted average interest rate of the Loan and the Mezzanine Loan, (b) change the stated maturity date of the Loan as set forth herein or that of the Mezzanine Loan as set forth in the Mezzanine Loan Documents, (c) increase the aggregate monthly debt service of
- 123 -
the Loan and the Mezzanine Loan or (d) modify or amend any other material economic or other material term of the Loan or the Mezzanine Loan. If Lender elects to modify the allocation of the outstanding principal balances of the Loan and the Mezzanine Loan such that the outstanding principal balance of the Mezzanine Loan shall be increased, and the outstanding principal balance of the Loan shall be decreased, then, to effectuate the foregoing, Mezzanine Lender will be deemed to have made a new loan to Mezzanine Borrower in the amount of such increase, and Mezzanine Borrower will be deemed to have contributed the amount of the new loan to Borrower, and Borrower will be deemed to have applied the contribution to pay down the Loan in the amount of such new loan amount. If Lender elects to modify the allocation of the outstanding principal balances of the Loan and the Mezzanine Loan such that the outstanding principal balance of the Loan shall be increased, and the outstanding principal balance of the Mezzanine Loan shall be decreased, then, to effectuate the foregoing, Lender will be deemed to have made a new loan to Borrower in the amount of such increase, and Borrower will be deemed to have distributed the amount of the new loan to Mezzanine Borrower in the form of a dividend, and Mezzanine Borrower will be deemed to have applied the distribution to pay down the Mezzanine Loan in the amount of such new loan amount.
9.1.2. Loan Components. Borrower covenants and agrees that in connection with any Securitization of the Loan or the transactions referred to in clause (iv) of Section 9.1(a), upon Lender’s request Borrower shall deliver one or more new component notes to replace the original note or modify the original note to reflect multiple components of the Loan (and such new notes or modified note shall have the same initial weighted average coupon as the original note, but such new notes or modified note may subsequently change the weighted average coupon and apply principal, interest rates and amortization of the Loan between the components in a manner specified by Lender in its sole discretion) and modify the Cash Management Agreement with respect to the newly created components such that the pricing and marketability of the Securities and the size of each class of Securities and the rating assigned to each such class by the Rating Agencies shall provide the most favorable rating levels and achieve the optimum bond execution for the Loan, provided, however, the monthly Debt Service Payment Amount shall not change. In the event of a prepayment of the Loan, Lender shall be entitled to apply the amount of such prepayment to one or more of the new component notes as Lender in its sole discretion decides. Lender shall have the same rights to sell or otherwise transfer, participate or securitize one or more of the divided, amended, modified or otherwise changed notes or components, individually or collectively, as Lender has with respect to the Loan.

All third party costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with any Secondary Market Transaction and all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Borrower in connection with Borrower’s complying with requests made under this Section 9.1 shall be paid by Lender, provided, however, that the foregoing shall not require Lender to pay or reimburse Borrower for any costs and expenses that Borrower would otherwise be required to pay or reimburse Lender for under any other provision of this Agreement in the event that no Secondary Market Transaction had occurred.

Section 9.2. Securitization Indemnification.
(a) (a) Borrower understands that certain of the information provided to Lender in connection with the Loan (collectively, the “Provided Information”) may be included in disclosure documents in connection with the Securitization, including, without limitation, a prospectus, prospectus supplement 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 will cooperate with the holder of the Note in updating the Disclosure Document by providing all current information necessary to keep the Disclosure Document accurate and complete in all material respects.
(b) Borrower agrees to provide in connection with each of (i) a preliminary and a private placement memorandum or (ii) a preliminary and final prospectus or prospectus supplement, as applicable, an indemnification certificate (A) certifying that Borrower has carefully examined such memorandum or prospectus, as applicable, including without limitation, the sections (including risk factors) pertaining to the Loan, the Loan Documents, the Borrower, the Condominium Documents, the Ground Leases and the Properties and such sections (and any other sections reasonably requested) 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, (B) indemnifying Lender (and for purposes of this Section 9.2, Lender hereunder shall include its officers and directors), the Affiliate of Xxxxxx Brothers Inc. (“Xxxxxx”) that has 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 the Affiliate within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (collectively, the “Xxxxxx Group”), and Xxxxxx, each of its directors and each Person who controls Xxxxxx within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act (collectively, the “Underwriter Group”) for any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (collectively, the “Liabilities”) to which Lender, the Xxxxxx 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 such sections or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated in such sections or necessary in order to make the statements in such sections or in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading and (C) agreeing to reimburse Lender, the Xxxxxx Group and the Underwriter Group for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by Lender and Xxxxxx in connection with investigating or defending the Liabilities; provided, however, that Borrower will be liable in any such case under clauses (B) or (C) above only to the extent that any such loss claim, damage or liability arises out of or is 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 in connection with the preparation of the memorandum or prospectus or in connection with the underwriting of the debt, including, without limitation, financial statements of Borrower, operating statements, rent rolls, environmental site assessment reports and property condition reports
- 125 -
with respect to the Properties. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which Borrower may otherwise have. Moreover, the indemnification provided for in Clauses (B) and (C) above shall be effective whether or not an indemnification certificate described in (A) above is provided and shall be applicable based on information previously provided by Borrower or its Affiliates if Borrower does not provide the indemnification certificate.
(c) In connection with filings under the Exchange Act, Borrower agrees to indemnify (i) Lender, the Xxxxxx Group and the Underwriter Group for Liabilities to which Lender, the Xxxxxx 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 a material fact required to be stated in the Provided Information in order to make the statements in the Provided Information, in light of the circumstances under which they were made not misleading and (ii) reimburse Lender, the Xxxxxx Group or the Underwriter Group for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by Lender, the Xxxxxx Group or the Underwriter Group in connection with defending or investigating the Liabilities.
(d) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 9.2 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 9.2, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof, but the omission to so notify the indemnifying party will not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability which the indemnifying party may have to any indemnified party hereunder except to the extent that failure to notify causes prejudice to the indemnifying party. In the event that any action is brought against any indemnified party, and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party 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 from such indemnified party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party. After notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party under this Section 9.2 the indemnifying party 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 the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there are any legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, 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 to parties. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one such separate counsel unless an indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or additional to those available to another indemnified party.
(e) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which the indemnity agreements provided for in Section 9.2(b) or (c) is or are for any reason held to be unenforceable by an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or action in respect thereof) referred to therein which would
- 126 -
otherwise be indemnifiable under Section 9.2(b) or (c), the indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or action in respect thereof); provided, however, that no Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was 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) Xxxxxx’x and Borrower’s relative knowledge and access to information concerning the matter with respect to which 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 and Borrower hereby agree that it would not be equitable if the amount of such contribution were determined by pro rata or per capita allocation.
(f) The liabilities and obligations of both Borrower and Lender under this Section 9.2 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the satisfaction and discharge of the Debt.
Section 9.3. Rating Surveillance. Borrower will retain the Rating Agencies to provide rating surveillance services on any certificates issued in a Securitization.

Notwithstanding anything the contrary, subject to the qualifications below, Lender shall not enforce the liability and obligation of Borrower to perform and observe the obligations contained in the Note, this Agreement, the Security Instruments or the other Loan Documents by any action or proceeding wherein a money judgment shall be sought against Borrower, except that Lender may bring a foreclosure action, an action for specific performance or any other appropriate action or proceeding to enable Lender to enforce and realize upon its interest under the Note, this Agreement, any or all of the Security Instruments and the other Loan Documents, or in any or all of the Properties, the Rents, or any other collateral given to Lender pursuant to the Loan Documents; provided, however, that, except as specifically provided herein, any judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be enforceable against Borrower only to the extent of Borrower’s interest in the Properties, in the Rents and in any other collateral given to Lender, and Lender, by accepting the Note, this Agreement, the Security Instruments and the other Loan Documents, agrees that it shall not xxx for, seek or demand any deficiency judgment against Borrower in any such action or proceeding under or by reason of or under or in connection with the Note, this Agreement, the Security Instruments or the other Loan Documents. The provisions of this Section shall not, however, (a) constitute a waiver, release or impairment of any obligation evidenced or secured by any of the Loan Documents; (b) impair the right of Lender to name Borrower as a party defendant in any action or suit for foreclosure and sale under any of the Security Instruments; (c) affect the validity or enforceability of any guaranty made in connection with the Loan or any of the rights and remedies of Lender thereunder; (d) impair the right of Lender to obtain the appointment of a receiver; (e) impair the enforcement of the Assignments of Leases; (f) constitute a prohibition against Lender to seek a deficiency judgment against Borrower in order to fully realize the security granted by each of the Security

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 the Note or under any other Loan Document, or any other instrument given as security therefor, shall operate as or constitute a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other future exercise, or the exercise of any other right, power, remedy or privilege.

Section 10.8. Headings. The Article and/or Section headings and the 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.
Section 10.9. Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.
Section 10.10. Preferences. Lender shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply or reverse and reapply any and all payments by Borrower to any portion of the obligations of Borrower hereunder. To the extent Borrower makes a payment or payments to Lender, which payment or proceeds or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then, to the extent of such payment or proceeds received, the obligations hereunder or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continue in full force and effect, as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by Lender.
Section 10.11. Waiver of Notice. Borrower shall not be entitled to any notices of any nature whatsoever from Lender except with respect to matters for which this Agreement or the other Loan Documents specifically and expressly provide for the giving of notice by Lender to Borrower and except with respect to matters for which Borrower is not, pursuant to applicable Legal Requirements, permitted to waive the giving of notice. Borrower hereby expressly waives the right to receive any notice from Lender with respect to any matter for which this Agreement or the other Loan Documents do not specifically and expressly provide for the giving of notice by Lender to Borrower.
Section 10.12. Remedies of Borrower. In the event that a claim or adjudication is made that Lender or its agents have acted unreasonably or unreasonably delayed acting in any case where by law or under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, Lender or such agent, as the case may be, has an obligation to act reasonably or promptly, Borrower agrees that neither Lender nor its agents shall be liable for any monetary damages, and Borrower’s sole remedies shall be limited to commencing an action seeking injunctive relief or declaratory judgment. The parties hereto agree that any action or proceeding to determine whether Lender has acted reasonably shall be determined by an action seeking declaratory judgment.
Section 10.13. Expenses; Indemnity. (a) Borrower covenants and agrees to pay or, if Borrower fails to pay, to reimburse, Lender upon receipt of written notice from Lender for all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred by Lender in connection with (i) except as otherwise specifically set forth in Article IX, the preparation, negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and all the costs of furnishing all opinions by counsel for Borrower (including without limitation any opinions requested by Lender as to any legal matters arising under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents with respect to the Properties); (ii) Borrower’s
- 135 -
ongoing performance of and compliance with Borrower’s respective agreements and covenants contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents on its part to be performed or complied with after the Closing Date, including, without limitation, confirming compliance with environmental and insurance requirements; (iii) Lender’s ongoing performance and compliance with all agreements and conditions contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents on its part to be performed or complied with after the Closing Date; (iv) the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and administration of any consents, amendments, waivers or other modifications to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other documents or matters requested by Lender; (v) except as otherwise specifically set forth in Article IX securing Borrower’s compliance with any requests made pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement; (vi) the filing and recording fees and expenses, title insurance and reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for providing to Lender all required legal opinions, and other similar expenses incurred in creating and perfecting the Lien in favor of Lender pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; (vii) enforcing or preserving any rights, in response to third party claims or the prosecuting or defending of any action or proceeding or other litigation, in each case against, under or affecting Borrower, this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, any Property, or any other security given for the Loan; and (viii) enforcing any obligations of or collecting any payments due from Borrower under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or with respect to any Property or in connection with any refinancing or restructuring of the credit arrangements provided under this Agreement in the nature of a “work-out” or of any insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings; provided, however, that Borrower shall not be liable for the payment of any such costs and expenses to the extent the same arise by reason of the gross negligence, illegal acts, fraud or willful misconduct of Lender. Any cost and expenses due and payable to Lender may be paid from any amounts in the Lockbox Account.
(b) Borrower shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Lender from and against any and all other liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for Lender in connection with any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding commenced or threatened, whether or not Lender shall be designated a party thereto), that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against Lender in any manner relating to or arising out of (i) any breach by Borrower of its obligations under, or any material misrepresentation by Borrower contained in, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or (ii) the use or intended use of the proceeds of the Loan (collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”); provided, however, that Borrower shall not have any obligation to Lender hereunder to the extent that such Indemnified Liabilities arise from the gross negligence, illegal acts, fraud or willful misconduct of Lender. To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify, defend and hold harmless set forth in the preceding sentence may be unenforceable because it violates any law or public policy, Borrower shall pay the maximum portion that it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by Lender.
Section 10.14. Schedules Incorporated. The Schedules annexed hereto are hereby incorporated herein as a part of this Agreement with the same effect as if set forth in the body hereof.
- 136 -
Section 10.15. Offsets, Counterclaims and Defenses. Any assignee of Lender’s interest in and to this Agreement, the Note and the other Loan Documents shall take the same free and clear of all offsets, counterclaims or defenses which are unrelated to such documents which Borrower may otherwise have against any assignor of such documents, and no such unrelated counterclaim or defense shall be interposed or asserted by Borrower in any action or proceeding brought by any such assignee upon 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.
Section 10.16. No Joint Venture or Partnership; No Third Party Beneficiaries.
(a) Borrower and Lender intend that the relationships created hereunder and under the other Loan Documents be solely that of borrower and lender. Nothing herein or therein is intended to create a joint venture, partnership, tenancy-in-common, or joint tenancy relationship between Borrower and Lender nor to grant Lender any interest in the Properties other than that of mortgagee, beneficiary or lender.
(b) This Agreement and the other Loan Documents are solely for the benefit of Lender and Borrower and nothing contained in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to confer upon anyone other than Lender and Borrower any right to insist upon or to enforce the performance or observance of any of the obligations contained herein or therein. All conditions to the obligations of Lender to make the Loan hereunder are imposed solely and exclusively for the benefit of Lender and no other Person shall have standing to require satisfaction of such conditions in accordance with their terms or be entitled to assume that Lender will refuse to make the Loan in the absence of strict compliance with any or all thereof and no other Person shall under any circumstances be deemed to be a beneficiary of such conditions, any or all of which may be freely waived in whole or in part by Lender if, in Lender’s sole discretion, Lender deems it advisable or desirable to do so.
Section 10.17. Publicity. All news releases, publicity or advertising by Borrower or its Affiliates through any media intended to reach the general public which refers to the Loan Documents or the financing evidenced by the Loan Documents, to Lender, Xxxxxx, or any of their Affiliates shall be subject to the prior written approval of Lender.
Section 10.18. Waiver of Marshalling of Assets. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Borrower, for itself and its successors and assigns, waives all rights to a marshalling of the assets of Borrower, Borrower’s partners and others with interests in Borrower, and of the Properties, 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 any of the Properties for the collection of the Debt without any prior or different resort for collection or of the right of Lender to the payment of the Debt out of the net proceeds of the Properties in preference to every other claimant whatsoever.
Section 10.19. Waiver of Counterclaim. Borrower hereby waives the right to assert a counterclaim, other than a compulsory counterclaim, in any action or proceeding brought
- 137 -
against it by Lender or its agents. No failure by Lender to perform any of its obligations hereunder shall be a valid defense to, or result in any offset against, any payments which Borrower is obligated to make under any of the Loan Documents.
Section 10.20. Conflict; Construction of Documents; Reliance. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Loan Agreement and any of the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Loan Agreement shall control. The parties hereto acknowledge that they were represented by competent counsel in connection with the negotiation, drafting and execution of the Loan Documents and that such Loan Documents shall not be subject to the principle of construing their meaning against the party which drafted same. Borrower acknowledges that, with respect to the Loan, Borrower shall rely solely on its own judgment and advisors in entering into the Loan without relying in any manner on any statements, representations or recommendations of Lender or any parent, subsidiary or Affiliate of Lender. Lender shall not be subject to any limitation whatsoever in the exercise of any rights or remedies available to it under any of the Loan Documents or any other agreements or instruments which govern the Loan by virtue of the ownership by it or any parent, subsidiary or Affiliate of Lender of any equity interest any of them may acquire in Borrower, and Borrower hereby irrevocably waives the right to raise any defense or take any action on the basis of the foregoing with respect to Lender’s exercise of any such rights or remedies. Borrower acknowledges that Lender engages in the business of real estate financings and other real estate transactions and investments which may be viewed as adverse to or competitive with the business of Borrower or its Affiliates.
Section 10.21. Brokers and Financial Advisors. Borrower hereby represents that it has dealt with no financial advisors, brokers, underwriters, placement agents, agents or finders in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Lender harmless from and against any and all claims, liabilities, costs and expenses of any kind (including Lender’s attorneys’ fees and expenses) in any way relating to or arising from a claim by any Person that such Person acted on behalf of Borrower or Lender in connection with the transactions contemplated herein. The provisions of this Section 10.21 shall survive the expiration and termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Debt.
Section 10.22. Prior Agreements. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents 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.
