If any payments under the Notes or any other Loan Documents are not timely made, Borrower shall also pay to Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Lenders) a late charge equal to 4% of each payment past due for 15 or more days. Acceptance by Administrative Agent of any late payment without an accompanying late charge shall not be deemed a waiver of Administrative Agent’s right to collect such late charge or to collect a late charge for any subsequent late payment received.
2.4 Maturity of the Loans. The outstanding principal balance of the Loans, together with all unpaid accrued interest thereon (not otherwise paid when due), and all other amounts payable by Borrower with respect to the Notes or pursuant to the terms of any other Loan Documents (not otherwise paid when due), shall be due and payable in full on the Maturity Date; provided, however, that the Maturity Date (for purposes of this section, the “Original Maturity Date”), may be extended for a period (the “First Extension Period”) ending twelve (12) months following the Original Maturity Date (the “First Extended Maturity Date”), and upon the expiration of the First Extension Period, may be extended for an additional period (the “Second Extension Period”) ending twelve (12) months following the First Extended Maturity Date (the “Second Extended Maturity Date”), upon Borrower’s satisfaction (or waiver in writing by Administrative Agent) of the following terms and conditions prior to each such extension:
(a) Borrower shall provide Administrative Agent with written notice of Borrower’s request to exercise its option to extend the maturity date not more than ninety (90) days but not less than forty-five (45) days prior to (i) the Original Maturity Date, in the case of the First Extension, and (ii) the First Extended Maturity Date, in the case of the Second Extension;
(b) As of the date of Borrower’s delivery of notice of request to exercise its option to extend, and as of the date of the commencement of the applicable extension, no Event of Default or Unmatured Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and Borrower shall so certify in writing;
(c) Borrower shall certify in writing that all representations and warranties set forth in the Loan Documents remain true and correct;
(d) The Debt Service Coverage Ratio for the Projects then serving as Collateral for the three month period immediately preceding the then applicable Maturity Date shall have been at least 1.25 to 1.0;
(e) Immediately prior to the commencement of each extension, Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent an extension fee in the amount of one quarter of one percent (0.25%) of the total outstanding plus undisbursed Loan proceeds, as determined on the Original Maturity Date, in the case of the First Extension, and as determined on the First Extended Maturity Date, in the case of the Second Extension;
(f) Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent, at Borrower’s sole cost and expense, such title insurance endorsements reasonably required by Administrative Agent;
(g) Borrower shall have paid all costs and expenses of Administrative Agent and Lenders in connection with such extension;
(h) Administrative Agent shall have determined, in its reasonable discretion, that the current leases at the Projects comply with Administrative Agent’s then-current underwriting criteria (which criteria shall be typical for a project of this type; and
(i) Administrative Agent shall have the right to reallocate the outstanding Loan balance, as of the first day of the extension period and the first day of the second extension period, between the Projects and to make corresponding dollar for dollar adjustments to the Adjusted Loan Basis for each Project. Such reallocation shall be based on Administrative Agent’s determination of the then-current value of each Project, as determined by Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion and in accordance with the underwriting policies and procedures used in connection with the Loan closing and the Appraisal delivered in connection with such extension. In connection with any reallocation of the Loan pursuant to this paragraph (j), Administrative Agent shall prepare and deliver to Borrower a new Schedule 1.1(A) reflecting the revised Adjusted Loan Basis of each Project, which shall supersede and replace Schedule 1.1(A) attached to this Agreement.
If the Original Maturity Date is extended to the First Extended Maturity Date, or the Second Extended Maturity Date, as provided above, then the term “Maturity Date” as used herein shall thereafter mean the First Extended Maturity Date or the Second Extended Maturity Date, as applicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else contained herein which may be construed to the contrary, the Second Extension Period may not come into effect unless the First Extension Period was previously in effect.
2.5 Principal Amortization; Prepayment. Commencing on July 1, 2009, and continuing on the first day of each month until all amounts due under the Loan Documents are paid in full (including any extension periods), Borrower shall make monthly principal amortization payments in arrears in accordance with this paragraph, which payments shall be applied to the outstanding principal balance of the Loan. Administrative Agent shall calculate the total amount of principal payments payable from June 1, 2009 to the Maturity Date based upon a 25-year amortization schedule, an amortization period which begins on June 1, 2009, an interest rate equal to the LIBOR Rate in effect as of June 1, 2009 and the outstanding principal balance of the Loan as of June 1, 2009. The monthly amortization payment shall equal the total amount of principal payable for such period (calculated as set forth above) divided by the number of monthly payments during such period. The foregoing notwithstanding, upon (a) any additional advance of Loan funds or (b) application of any permitted or required prepayment of the Loan (other than the amortization payments required by this paragraph to the Loan balance, Administrative Agent shall recalculate the amount of the monthly principal amortization payment owing for the remainder of the Loan term, based upon the new outstanding principal balance and the LIBOR Rate then in effect, and such revised principal amortization payment shall be due commencing on the first day of the month immediately following the month in which such additional advance or prepayment (as applicable) is made. If the term of the Loan is extended in accordance with Section 2.4, the amount of the monthly principal amortization payment owing during such extension period shall continue in effect based upon the original 25-year amortization schedule. Administrative Agent’s determination of the amount of the monthly amortization payments to be made by Borrower hereunder shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Subject to Section 2.9(b), Section 2.16 and Section 13.30 hereof, the Loans may be prepaid in whole or in part at any time.
2.6 Security. Payment of the Notes shall be secured by the following:
(a) The Deeds of Trust;
(b) The Guaranty;
(c) To the extent to which they may be assigned, all other rights, licenses, permits, franchises, authorizations, approvals and agreements relating to the use, occupancy or operation of the Projects; and
(d) The Financing Statements.
2.7 Fees. Borrower shall pay to Wachovia Bank the fees specified in the Fee Letter, at the time specified in the Fee Letter. All such fees payable to Wachovia Bank under the Fee Letter shall belong solely to Wachovia Bank, and Wachovia Bank shall not be required to share any such fees or compensation specified in the Fee Letter with any of the other Lenders (except only to the extent, if at all, set forth in a separate written agreement between Wachovia Bank and any of such other Lenders). Lenders agree to not pursue Borrower for any fees paid to Wachovia Bank under the Fee Letter.
2.8 Increased Costs.
(a) If any Change in Law shall: (i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender; (ii) subject any Lender to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement or any Loan made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender in respect thereof (except for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes covered by Section 2.11 and the imposition of, or any change in the rate of, any Excluded Tax payable by such Lender); or (iii) impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or Loans made by such Lender or participation therein; and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender, Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.
(b) If any Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or any Lending Office of such Lender or such Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitment of such Lender or the Loans made by, such Lender, to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.
2.9 Payments; Pro Rata Treatment.
(a) Each borrowing by Borrower from the Lenders hereunder, each payment (including each prepayment) by Borrower on account of principal of and interest on the Loans, and each payment by Borrower on account of any reduction of the Commitments, shall be made to Administrative Agent for the benefit of Lenders on a pro rata basis according to the respective Lenders’ Ratable Shares; provided that any Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to its Ratable Share of any such payment by Borrower until such time as such Defaulting Lender has paid its Ratable Share of all borrowing payable by it hereunder, together with interest thereon (as provided in Section 2.13(a)), to Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. All payments (including prepayments) to be made by Borrower hereunder and under the Notes, whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise, shall be made without set-off or counterclaim and shall be made prior to 1:00 p.m., Charlotte, North Carolina time, on the due date thereof to Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders, at Administrative Agent’s office at 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx, or at such other office as directed by Administrative Agent from time to time, in Dollars and in immediately available funds. Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute such payments to the Lenders upon receipt in like funds as received. If any payment hereunder becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day (and, with respect to payments of principal, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension) unless the result of such extension would be to extend such payment into another calendar month, in which event such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day.
(b) Subject to Section 13.30 hereof, Borrower may from time to time pay all outstanding Loans, or, in a minimum aggregate amount of $1,000,000 or any integral multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof, any portion of the outstanding Loans upon notice to Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. Charlotte, North Carolina time on the date of payment; provided, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, no more than two prepayments of Loans may be made each calendar month. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower may make a prepayment in an amount sufficient to release a Project from the lien of the Loan in accordance with Article XIV hereof.
(c) In addition to the principal payments otherwise required hereunder, Borrower shall make mandatory prepayments (“Mandatory Prepayments”) of principal as set forth below. Amounts repaid hereunder may not be reborrowed.
(i) Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of Lenders the amounts required under Section 4.11, as and when required thereunder.
(ii) If Administrative Agent notifies Borrower at any time that the aggregate amount of the Loans made hereunder exceeds the Aggregate Commitment, then, within two Business Days after receipt of such notice, Borrower shall prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Loans in an aggregate amount sufficient to reduce such outstanding principal as of such date of payment to an amount not to exceed the Aggregate Commitment.
2.10 Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.8, or requires Borrower to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.11, then such Lender, unless directed by Borrower not to do so, shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.8 or Section 2.11, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.
2.11 Taxes.
(a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, provided that if Borrower shall be required by applicable law to deduct any Indemnified Taxes (including any Other Taxes) from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section), Administrative Agent or the applicable Lender, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) Borrower shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.
(b) Without limiting the provisions of subparagraph (a) above, Borrower shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority prior to delinquency in accordance with applicable law.
(c) Borrower shall indemnify Administrative Agent and each Lender, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) paid by Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to Administrative Agent), or by Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(d) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by Borrower to a Governmental Authority, Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent.
(e) Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which Borrower is resident for tax purposes, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall deliver to Borrower (with a copy to Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent as will enable Borrower or Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that Borrower is resident for tax purposes in the United States of America, any Foreign Lender shall deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of Borrower or Administrative Agent, but only if such Foreign Lender is legally entitled to do so), whichever of the following is applicable: (i) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States of America is a party, (ii) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI, (iii) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of Borrower within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (y) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, or (iv) any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States Federal withholding tax duly completed together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit Borrower to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.
(f) If Administrative Agent or a Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by Borrower or with respect to which Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall pay to Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by Borrower under this Section with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that Borrower, upon the request of Administrative Agent, such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This paragraph shall not be construed to require Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to Borrower or any other Person.
(g) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 2.11 to the contrary, Administrative Agent and Lenders hereby agree that Borrower shall not be required to pay, reimburse, set off or otherwise be responsible for any taxes, including without limitation any Indemnified Taxes, Other Taxes or Excluded Taxes (collectively, “Tax Reimbursements”) which are attributable to a period more than one hundred eighty (180) days prior to the date on which Borrower receives notice of its obligation to pay such Tax Reimbursements.
2.12 Survival of Indemnity. Determination of amounts payable under Section 2.8 shall be calculated as though each Lender funded its Loan through the purchase of a deposit of the type and maturity corresponding to the deposit used as a reference in determining the interest rate applicable to such Loan, whether in fact that is the case or not. The obligations of Borrower under Section 2.8 and Section 2.11 shall survive repayment of the Notes and termination of this Agreement.
2.13 Funding by Lenders; Payments by Borrower; Presumptions by Administrative Agent.
(a) Unless Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any borrowing of Loans that such Lender will not make available to Administrative Agent such Lender’s Ratable Share of such Loans, Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such Ratable Share available on such date in accordance with Section 4.3 and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its Ratable Share of the Loans available to Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and Borrower severally agree to pay to Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the Federal Funds Rate and (ii) in the case of a payment to be made by Borrower, the interest rate applicable to Loans. If Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to Borrower the amount of such interest paid by Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays its Ratable Share of Loans to Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan. Any payment by Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to Administrative Agent.
(b) Unless Administrative Agent shall have received notice from Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders hereunder that Borrower will not make such payment, Administrative Agent may assume that Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender, with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate.
2.14 Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under
Section 2.8, or if Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any
Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.11, or if any
Lender is a Defaulting Lender, then Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to
such Lender and Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse
(in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by,
Section 13.1), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the
related Loan Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which Eligible
Assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that:
(a) Borrower shall have paid to Administrative Agent the assignment fee specified in
Section 13.1; (b) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the
outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts
payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents from the assignee (to the extent of such
outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or Borrower (in the case of all other
amounts); (c) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under
Section 2.8 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.11 such
assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; and (d) such
assignment does not conflict with applicable law. A Lender shall not be required to make any such
assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise,
the circumstances entitling Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.
2.15 Adjustments to Adjusted Loan Basis. The Adjusted Loan Basis for each Project shall be
decreased dollar for dollar for prepayments of Loan principal which relate directly to such Project
(e.g., casualty or condemnation proceeds or payments made in connection with the release of a
Project in accordance with Section 14.3). Any prepayment of principal not directly related
to a specific Project shall be allocated by Administrative Agent to the Projects, on a pro rata
basis, in accordance with each Project’s Adjusted Loan Basis.
2.16 Indemnity. Borrower agrees to indemnify each Lender and to hold each Lender harmless from any loss or expense which such Lender sustains or incurs (other than through such Lender’s negligence or willful misconduct) as a consequence of (a) default by Borrower in making any prepayment of a Loan after Borrower has given a notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or (b) the making of a prepayment of Loans on a day which is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto (whether by acceleration, demand, required assignment or otherwise). Such indemnification may include, without limitation, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the amount so prepaid or not so borrowed for the period from the date of such prepayment or of such failure to borrow to the last day of the applicable Interest Period (or, in the case of a failure to borrow the Interest Period that would have commenced on the date of such failure) in each case at the applicable rate of interest for such portion of the Loan provided for herein over (ii) the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by such Lender) which would have accrued to such Lender on such amount by placing such amount on deposit for a comparable period with leading banks in the interbank LIBOR market. By its initials below, Borrower waives any right under California Civil Code Section 2954.10 or otherwise to prepay any Loan, in whole or in part, without payment of any and all amounts specified above in this Section 2.16 (the “Breakage Amounts”). Borrower acknowledges that prepayment of any Loan may result in Lenders’ incurring additional losses, costs, expenses and liabilities, including lost revenues and lost profits. Borrower therefore agrees to pay any and all Breakage Amounts if any Loan is prepaid, whether voluntarily or by reason of acceleration, including acceleration upon any transfer or conveyance of any right, title or interest in the Project giving Administrative Agent on behalf of Lenders the right to accelerate the maturity of the Loans as provided in the Loan Documents. Borrower agrees that Lenders’ willingness to offer the LIBOR Rate to Borrower is sufficient and independent consideration, given individual weight by Lenders, for this waiver. Borrower understands that Lenders would not offer the LIBOR Rate to Borrower absent this waiver.

Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (d) of this Section.
(c) Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of Borrower, shall maintain at its office in Charlotte, North Carolina, a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and Borrower, Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary.

Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in Section 13.27 that requires the consent of all Lenders, that affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (e) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.8 and 2.11 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 13.28(a) as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 13.28(b) as though it were a Lender.
(e) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 2.8 or 2.11 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with Borrower’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.11 unless Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of Borrower, to comply with Section 2.11 as though it were a Lender.
(f) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(c) Each Borrower acknowledges that the liens and security interests created or granted herein and by the other Loan Documents will secure Obligations of all Borrowers under the Loan Documents and, in full recognition of that fact, each Borrower consents and agrees that the Administrative Agent and/or Lenders may, at any time and from time to time, without notice or demand, and without affecting the enforceability or security hereof or of any other Loan Document:

(d) Upon the occurrence of and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Administrative Agent may enforce this Agreement and the other Loan Documents independently as to each Borrower and independently of any other remedy or security Administrative Agent and/or Lenders at any time may have or hold in connection with the Obligations, and in collecting on the Loans it shall not be necessary for Administrative Agent to marshal assets in favor of any Borrower or any other Person or to proceed upon or against and/or exhaust any other security or remedy before proceeding to enforce this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each Borrower expressly waives any right to require Administrative Agent and/or Lenders, in connection with Administrative Agent and/or Lender’s efforts to obtain repayment of the Loans and other Obligations, to marshal assets in favor of any Borrower or any other Person or to proceed against any other Person or any collateral provided by any other Person, and agrees that Administrative Agent and/or Lenders may proceed against any Persons and/or collateral in such order as it shall determine in its sole and absolute discretion in connection with Administrative Agent’s efforts to obtain repayment of the Loans and other Obligations. Administrative Agent may file a separate action or actions against each Borrower to enforce the Obligations, whether action is brought or prosecuted with respect to any other security or against any other Person, or whether any other Person is joined in any such action or actions. Each Borrower agrees that Administrative Agent, Lenders, each Borrower and/or any other Person may deal with each other in connection with the Obligations or otherwise, or alter any contracts or agreements now or hereafter existing between any of them, in any manner whatsoever, all without in any way altering or affecting the security of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. The rights of Administrative Agent and/or Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall be reinstated and revived, and the enforceability of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall continue, with respect to any amount at any time paid on account of the Obligations which thereafter shall be required to be restored or returned by Administrative Agent and/or Lenders as a result of the bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of any Borrower or any other Person, or otherwise, all as though such amount had not been paid. The enforceability of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents at all times shall remain effective even though the any or all Obligations, or any other security or guaranty therefor, may be or hereafter may become invalid or otherwise unenforceable as against any Borrower or any other Person and whether or not any Borrower or any other Person shall have any personal liability with respect thereto. Each Borrower expressly waives any and all defenses to the enforcement of its obligations under the Loan Documents now or hereafter arising or asserted by reason of (i) any disability or other defense of any Borrower or any other Person with respect to the Obligations, (ii) the unenforceability or invalidity of any security or guaranty for the Obligations or the lack of perfection or continuing perfection or failure of priority of any security for the Obligations, (iii) the cessation for any cause whatsoever of the liability of any Borrower or any other Person (other than by reason of the full and final payment and performance of all Obligations), (iv) any failure of Administrative Agent and/or Lenders to marshal assets in favor of any of the Borrowers or any other Person, (v) any failure of Administrative Agent and/or Lenders to give notice of sale or other disposition of any Collateral for the Obligations to any Borrower or to any other Person or any defect in any notice that may be given in connection with any such sale or disposition, (vi) any failure of Administrative Agent and/or Lenders to comply in any non-material respect with applicable laws in connection with the sale or other disposition of any Collateral or other security for any Obligation, (vii) any act or omission of Administrative Agent and/or Lenders or others that directly or indirectly results in or aids the discharge or release of any Borrower or of any other Person or of any of the Obligations or any other security or guaranty therefor by operation of law or otherwise, (viii) any law which provides that the obligation of a surety or guarantor must neither be larger in amount nor in other respects more burdensome than that of the principal or which reduces a surety’s or guarantor’s obligation in proportion to the principal obligation, (ix) any failure of Administrative Agent and/or Lenders to file or enforce a claim in any bankruptcy or other proceeding with respect to any Person, (x) the election by Administrative Agent, in any bankruptcy proceeding of any Person, of the application or non-application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the United States Bankruptcy Code, (xi) any extension of credit or the grant of any lien under Xxxxxxx 000 xx xxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxx Bankruptcy Code except to extent otherwise provided in this Agreement, (xii) any use of cash collateral under Section 363 of the United States Bankruptcy Code, (xiii) any agreement or stipulation with respect to the provision of adequate protection in any bankruptcy proceeding of any Person, (xiv) the avoidance of any lien or security interest in favor of Administrative Agent securing the Obligations for any reason, or (xv) any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment of debt, liquidation or dissolution proceeding commenced by or against any Person, including any discharge of, or bar or stay against collecting, all or any of the Obligations (or any interest thereon) in or as a result of any such proceeding. Without in any way limiting the foregoing, with respect to the Loan Documents and the Obligations, each Borrower: (A) waives all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies by Administrative Agent, even though that election of remedies, such as non-judicial foreclosure with respect to security for Borrowers’ obligations, has destroyed each of their rights of subrogation and reimbursement against the other by the operation of Section 580(d) of the California Code of Civil Procedure or otherwise; and (B) waives any right to a fair value hearing or similar proceeding following a nonjudicial foreclosure of the Obligations, whether arising under California Code of Civil Procedure Section 580a or otherwise.
(e) The Borrowers represent and warrant to Administrative Agent and Lenders that they have established adequate means of obtaining from each other, on a continuing basis, financial and other information pertaining to their respective businesses, operations and condition (financial and otherwise) and their respective properties, and each now is and hereafter will be completely familiar with the businesses, operations and condition (financial and otherwise) of the other and their respective properties. Each Borrower hereby expressly waives and relinquishes any duty on the part of Administrative Agent and/or Lenders to disclose to such Borrower any matter, fact or thing related to the businesses, operations or condition (financial or otherwise) of the other Borrowers or the other Borrowers’ properties, whether now known or hereafter known by Administrative Agent and/or Lenders during the life of this Agreement. With respect to any of the Obligations, the Administrative Agent and/or Lenders need not inquire into the powers of any Borrower or the officers, employees or other Persons acting or purporting to act on such Borrower’s behalf.
(f) Without limiting the foregoing, or anything else contained in this Agreement, each Borrower waives all rights and defenses that it may have because the Obligations are secured by real property. This means, among other things:
(i) Administrative Agent and/or Lenders may collect on the Obligations from any Borrower without first foreclosing on any real or personal property collateral pledged by the other Borrowers; and
(ii) If Administrative Agent and/or Lenders foreclose on any real property collateral pledged by any Borrower for the Obligations: (A) the amount of the indebtedness owed by the other Borrowers may be reduced only by the price for which that collateral is sold at the foreclosure sale, even if the collateral is worth more than the sale price; and (B) Administrative Agent and Lenders may collect from any Borrower even if Administrative Agent and/or Lenders, by foreclosing on the real property collateral, has destroyed any right any Borrower may have to collect from the other Borrowers.
(g) This is an unconditional and irrevocable waiver of any rights and defenses each Borrower may have because the Obligations are secured by real property. These rights and defenses include, but are not limited to, any rights or defenses based upon Sections 580a, 580b, 580d or 726 of the California Code of Civil Procedure. Each Borrower expressly waives any right to receive notice of any judicial or nonjudicial foreclosure or sale of any real property collateral provided by the other Borrower to secure the Obligations and failure to receive any such notice shall not impair or affect such Borrower’s obligations hereunder or the enforceability of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any liens created or granted hereby or thereby.
(h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary elsewhere contained herein or in any other Loan Document to which any Borrower is a party, with respect to the Loans and all other Obligations, each Borrower hereby waives with respect to the other Borrowers and their successors and assigns (including any surety) and any other Person any and all rights at law or in equity, to subrogation, to reimbursement, to exoneration, to contribution, to setoff, to any other rights and defenses available to it by reason of California Civil Code Sections 2787 and 2855, inclusive, or to any other rights that could accrue to a surety against a principal, to a guarantor against a maker or obligor, to an accommodation party against the party accommodated, or to a holder or transferee against a maker and which each of them may have or hereafter acquire against the other or any other Person in connection with or as a result of such Borrower’s execution, delivery and/or performance of this Agreement or any other Loan Document to which it is a party until the Obligations are paid and performed in full. Each Borrower agrees that it shall not have or assert any such rights against any other Borrower or any other Borrower’s successors and assigns or any other Person (including any surety), either directly or as an attempted setoff to any action commenced against such Borrower by any other Borrower (as borrower or in any other capacity) or any other Person until the all Obligations are paid and performed in full. Each Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that this waiver is intended to benefit Administrative Agent and Lenders and shall not limit or otherwise affect any Borrower’s liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to which it is a party, or the enforceability hereof or thereof.
(i) Each Borrower warrants and agrees that each of the waivers and consents set forth herein is made with full knowledge of its significance and consequences, with the understanding that events giving rise to any defense waived may diminish, destroy or otherwise adversely affect rights which each otherwise may have against the other, against Administrative Agent and Lenders or others, or against any collateral. If any of the waivers or consents herein are determined to be contrary to any applicable law or public policy, such waivers and consents shall be effective to the maximum extent permitted by law.
13.24 Waiver Of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PERSON HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.
13.25 WAIVER OF SPECIAL DAMAGES. BORROWER WAIVES, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY LAW, ANY RIGHT BORROWER MAY HAVE TO CLAIM OR RECOVER FROM ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY LENDER IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING ANY SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES.
13.26 USA Patriot Act Notification. The following notification is provided to Borrower pursuant to Section 326 of the USA Patriot Act of 2001, 31 U.S.C. Section 5318:
IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT PROCEDURES FOR OPENING A NEW ACCOUNT. To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, Federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person or entity that opens an account, including any deposit account, treasury management account, loan, other extension of credit, or other financial services product. What this means for Borrower: When Borrower opens an account, if Borrower is an individual, Administrative Agent will ask for Borrower’s name, taxpayer identification number, residential address, date of birth, and other information that will allow Administrative Agent to identify Borrower, and, if Borrower is not an individual, Administrative Agent will ask for Borrower’s name, taxpayer identification number, business address, and other information that will allow Administrative Agent to identify Borrower. Administrative Agent may also ask, if Borrower is an individual, to see Borrower’s driver’s license or other identifying documents, and, if Borrower is not an individual, to see Borrower’s legal organizational documents or other identifying documents.
13.27 Amendments and Waivers. Administrative Agent and Borrower may, from time to time, with the written consent of the Required Lenders, enter into written amendments, supplements or modifications for the purpose of adding any provisions to this Agreement or the Notes or changing in any manner the rights of the Lenders or Borrower hereunder or thereunder, and with the consent of the Required Lenders, Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders may execute and deliver to Borrower a written instrument waiving, on such terms and conditions as the Administrative Agent may specify in such instrument, any of the requirements of this Agreement, the Notes or any Event of Default and its consequences; provided, however, that no such waiver and no such amendment, supplement or modification shall reduce the rate or extend the final maturity of any Note or time of payment of principal, interest or fees on any Note or reduce the principal amount of any Note, or change the amount or terms of any Lender’s Loan or Ratable Share or the amount of any Lender’s Commitment (except for (i) changes resulting from an assignment permitted hereunder or (ii) as provided in Section 2.14), or change Section 13.28(b) in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, or release any Guarantor from the Guaranty to which it is a party, or amend, modify, change or waive any provision of this Section, or reduce the percentage specified in the definition of Required Lenders, or consent to the assignment or transfer by Borrower of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, or consent to the release any material portion of the collateral (unless otherwise permitted under this Agreement), or amend, modify or change any other provision of this Agreement that requires the consent of all Lenders, in each case without the written consent of all Lenders; and provided, further, that no such waiver and no such amendment, supplement or modification shall amend, modify, change or waive any provision relating to the rights or obligations of Administrative Agent without the consent of Administrative Agent. Any such waiver and any such amendment, supplement or modification shall be binding upon Borrower, Administrative Agent and each Lender, and all future holders of the Notes. In the case of any waiver, Borrower, Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be restored to their former position and rights hereunder and under the outstanding Notes, and any Event of Default waived shall be deemed to be cured and not continuing; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Event of Default, or impair any right consequent thereon. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, modification, waiver or consent hereunder, except that the Commitment of such Lender may not be increased without the consent of such Lender.
13.28 Setoff; Sharing of Payments by Lenders.
(a) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, following receipt of Administrative Agent’s written consent (which may be withheld in Administrative Agent’s sole discretion), to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of Borrower against any and all of the obligations of Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of Borrower may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of such Lender different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness. The rights of each Lender and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender or their respective Affiliates may have. Each Lender agrees to notify Borrower and Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.
(b) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or other obligations hereunder resulting in such Lender’s receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon or other such obligations greater than its pro rata share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and such other obligations of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and other amounts owing them, provided that: (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against Borrower rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of Borrower in the amount of such participation.
13.29 Application of Proceeds. Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, Administrative Agent shall apply all payments and prepayments in respect of the Notes in such order as shall be specified by Borrower. After the occurrence of an Event of Default, Administrative Agent shall, unless otherwise specified at the direction of the Required Lenders which direction shall be consistent with the last two sentences of the penultimate paragraph of this Section, apply all payments and prepayments in respect of the Notes and all proceeds of collateral, if any, and any enforcement action (or other realization), in the following order:
(a) first, to pay all costs and expenses incurred in connection with such sale of collateral or enforcement action (or other realization), including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses actually incurred (including, without limitation, the expenses and other allocated costs of internal counsel and expenses and costs associated with any collateral disposition or enforcement action (or other realization);
(b) second, to pay all late charges then due under the Loan Documents;
(c) third, to pay all accrued interest on and then principal of any portion of the Loans which Administrative Agent may have advanced on behalf of any Lender for which Administrative Agent has not then been reimbursed by such Lender or Borrower;
(d) fourth, to pay any fees, expenses, reimbursements or indemnities then due to Administrative Agent;
(e) fifth, to pay any fees, expenses, reimbursements or indemnities then due under the Loan Documents to the Lenders;
(f) sixth, to pay all accrued interest in respect of the Loans and any obligations owing under any Swap Contracts;
(g) seventh, to the ratable payment or prepayment of principal outstanding on the Loans in such order as Administrative Agent may determine in its sole discretion; and
(h) eighth, to the ratable payment of all other amounts payable under the Notes or under the other Loan Documents.
Borrower shall remain liable and will pay, on demand, any deficiency remaining in respect of the Notes and the other Loan Documents, together with interest thereon pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. The order of priority set forth in clauses (b) and (c) above and the related provisions of this Agreement are set forth solely to determine the rights and priorities of Administrative Agent. The order of priority set forth in clauses (d), (e) and (f) above may be changed only with the prior written consent of all the Lenders without necessity of notice to or consent of or approval by Borrower, or any other Person. The order of priority set forth in clauses (b) and (c) above may be changed only with the prior written consent of Administrative Agent.
Notwithstanding any provisions concerning distribution of payments to the contrary in this Agreement, so long as any Event of Default exists that has not been waived by the Required Lenders, each Lender shall share in any payments or proceeds, including proceeds of any collateral, received by Administrative Agent or any Lender made or received at any time from and after any Event of Default (“Proceeds after Default”) in an amount equal to such Lender’s Ratable Share of the Proceeds after Default; provided, however, if any one or more of the Lenders has not made any funding when required hereunder, the distribution of Proceeds after Default shall be adjusted so that each Lender shall receive Proceeds after Default in an amount equal to (1) the Proceeds after Default multiplied by (2) the percentage (rounded to five decimal places) of the total amount outstanding funded by all the Lenders that such Lender has actually funded. If necessary, Administrative Agent and each Lender shall use the adjustments procedure set forth in Section 13.28(b) to make the appropriate distributions to the Lenders as set forth in this paragraph of this Article.
13.30 Swap Contracts. Prior to or substantially concurrently with the Closing Date (and as an additional condition precedent to the obligation of Agent and Lenders to make advances hereunder), Borrower may enter into Swap Contracts with Wachovia Bank or with another Lender (or with Affiliates of Wachovia Bank or such other Lender), or with another financial institution satisfactory to Administrative Agent, for the purpose of hedging and protecting against interest rate fluctuation risks with respect to the Loans, with a notional amount of at least the Aggregate Commitment and a term at least until the Maturity Date, and on such additional terms and conditions as are mutually approved by Borrower and Administrative Agent and as are acceptable to Wachovia Bank or such other Lender (or their Affiliates), or such other financial institution, as applicable. So long as any Deed of Trust encumbers a Project and the Swap Contract has been provided by Wachovia Bank or another Lender (or any of their Affiliates) in connection with the Loans, Borrower’s obligations (including any payment obligations) with respect to any such Swap Contract shall be secured by the Deeds of Trust and any other Collateral, and any default by Borrower under any such Swap Contract shall, at the discretion of Administrative Agent, constitute an Event of Default under this Agreement. All Swap Contracts, if any, between Borrower and Wachovia Bank or any other Lender (or any of their Affiliates) are independent Agreements governed by the written provisions of the Swap Contracts, which will remain in full force and effect, unaffected by any repayment, prepayment, acceleration, reduction, increase or change in the terms of any Notes or other Loan Documents, except as otherwise expressly provided in the written Swap Contracts, and any payoff statement from Administrative Agent relating to the Notes shall not apply to the Swap Contracts except as otherwise expressly provided in such payoff statement. By its signature below, Borrower waives any right under California Civil Code Section 2954.10 (to the extent applicable) or otherwise to prepay the Loans, in whole or in part, without payment of any and all amounts specified or required under the terms of any Swap Contracts (the “Indemnified Amounts”). Borrower acknowledges that prepayment of the Loans may result in Lenders and their Affiliates incurring additional losses, costs, expenses and liabilities, including lost revenues and lost profits in connection with the Swap Contracts or otherwise. Borrower therefore agrees to pay any and all Indemnified Amounts if the Loans are prepaid, whether voluntarily or by reason of acceleration, including acceleration upon any transfer or conveyance of any right, title or interest in any Property giving Administrative Agent the right to accelerate the maturity of the Loan as provided in the Loan Documents. Borrower agrees that Lenders’ willingness to offer the Loans to Borrower is sufficient and independent consideration, given individual weight by Lenders, for this waiver. Borrower understands that Lenders would not offer the Loans to Borrower absent this waiver.
ARTICLE XIV
RELEASE OF PROJECTS
14.1 Borrower’s Acknowledgment Regarding Buyer Financing. Borrower acknowledges that Administrative Agent has not in any manner, by this Agreement or otherwise, committed to provide any financing to or for the buyers of any Project other than the financing of the Tranche Two Projects and the Tranche Three Projects to the extent the conditions to such financing set forth herein have been satisfied (or otherwise waived in writing by Administrative Agent).
14.2 Full Payment. Except as provided in this Section 14, unless Administrative Agent otherwise consents in writing, no Project or any part thereof shall be released until all indebtedness and obligations of Borrower under the Loan Documents have been paid and performed in full and all Swap Contracts have been terminated (or sold or transferred on terms mutually acceptable to Borrower and the swap provider) and all indebtedness and obligations owing thereunder or in connection therewith have been paid and performed in full.
14.3 Partial Release. At the written request of Borrower, Administrative Agent shall release Projects from the lien of the applicable Deeds of Trust upon the satisfaction of all the following conditions precedent with respect to the Project being released:
(a) at the time of the release no Event of Default or Unmatured Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing;
(b) after giving effect to the proposed release, no less than three (3) Projects shall remain Collateral;
(c) the Project must be transferred to a non-Borrower.
(d) Borrower shall have paid all fees and costs in connection with the release, including recording and reconveyance fees and costs, and any fees and costs reasonably incurred by Administrative Agent;
(e) Concurrently with Administrative Agent’s release of each of the Projects, Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent (for the ratable benefit of the Lenders) a release payment equal to the greatest of the following amounts:
(i) One hundred ten percent (110%) of the then current Adjusted Loan Basis for such Project;
(ii) The minimum amount which, when applied to the outstanding principal balance of the Loans, would result in a Debt Service Coverage Ratio (based on the Projects remaining as Collateral after the proposed release) equal to 1.25:1.0; or
(iii) The minimum amount which, when applied to the outstanding principal balance of the Loans, would result in an Loan-to-Value Ratio of not more than sixty-six percent (66%), based on the Projects remaining as Collateral after giving effect to the proposed release;
(f) Borrower shall provide to Lender at Borrower’s sole cost and expense such title insurance endorsements to the Title Insurance Policies for the remaining Deeds of Trust as Administrative Agent shall reasonably request, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent, which shall insure that after such release, the remaining Deeds of Trust shall continue as valid first position liens against the Projects covered thereby.
14.4 Release of Borrowers. Prior to a Borrower acquiring a Project serving as Collateral, such Borrower may be released as a Borrower under the Loan Documents upon the satisfaction of all the following conditions precedent:
(a) Administrative Agent shall have received a written request for such release; and
(b) The Borrower to be released shall have executed and delivered to Administrative Agent such written releases of Administrative Agent and Lenders as reasonably required by Administrative Agent.
