Further, Buyer and Guarantor agree that neither of them will seek, apply for or cause the entry of any order enjoining, staying, or otherwise prohibiting or interfering with Lender's obtaining an order granting relief from the automatic stay and enforcement of any rights which Lender may have under the Loan Documents, including, but not limited to, Lender's right to possession of the property, collection of rents and/or the commencement or continuation of an action to foreclose Lender's liens and security interests under the Loan Documents.
22.COMPLIANCE WITH INTEREST LAW. It is the intention of Seller, Buyer, and Lender to conform strictly to the Interest Law (herein defined). Accordingly, Buyer and Lender agree that any provisions contained in the Note or in any of the other Loan Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, the aggregate of all interest, or consideration constituting interest under the Interest Law, that is taken, reserved, contracted for, charged or received under the Note or under any of the aforesaid documents or otherwise in connection with this loan transaction shall under no circumstances exceed the maximum amount of interest allowed by the Interest Law. If any excess interest is provided for in the Note or in any of the other Loan Documents, then (a) the provisions of this paragraph shall govern and control, (b) neither Buyer nor Buyer's successors or assigns shall be obligated to pay the amount of such interest to the extent that it is in excess of the maximum amount of interest allowed by the Interest Law, (c) any such excess shall be deemed a mistake and canceled automatically and, if theretofore paid, shall be credited against the Indebtedness (or if the
11
Loan No. 73100202
Note shall have been paid in full, refunded to Buyer), and (d) the effective rate of interest shall be automatically subject to reduction to the Maximum Legal Rate of Interest (as hereinafter defined). To the extent permitted by the Interest Law, all sums paid or agreed to be paid to Lender for the use, forbearance, or detention of the Indebtedness shall be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full term of the Note. For purposes of the Note, "Interest Law" shall mean any present or future law of the State of Georgia (meaning the internal laws of said state and not the laws of said state relating to choice of law), the United States of America or any other jurisdiction, which has application to the interest and other charges under the Note or under any of the other Loan Documents and to the classification of Buyer under such law. For purposes of the Note, the "Maximum Legal Rate of Interest" shall mean the maximum effective contract rate of interest that Lender may from time to time, by agreement with the Buyer, legally charge Buyer and in regard to which Buyer would be prevented from successfully raising the claim or defense of usury under the Interest Law as now or hereafter construed by courts of appropriate jurisdiction.
23.TERMS GENERALLY. Each definition contained in this or any other Article of this Agreement shall apply equally to both the singular and plural form of the term defined. Each pronoun shall include the masculine, the feminine and neuter form, which ever is appropriate to the context. The words "included", "includes" and "including" shall each be deemed to be followed by the phrase, "without limitation." The words, "herein", "hereby", "hereof", and "hereunder" shall each be deemed to refer to this entire Agreement and not to any particular Article or Section hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any law is amended so as to broaden the meaning of any term defined in it, such broader meaning shall apply subsequent to the effective date of such amendment. Where a defined term derives its meaning from a statutory reference, any regulatory definition is broader than the statutory reference and any reference or citation to a statute or regulation shall be deemed to include any amendments to that statue or regulation and judicial and administrative interpretations of it
24.SECURITIES ACT OF 1933. Neither Buyer, Seller nor any agent acting on behalf of either Buyer or Seller has offered the Note or any similar obligation of the Buyer or Seller for sale to or solicited any offers to buy the Note or any similar obligation of the Buyer or Seller from any person or party other than Lender, and neither Buyer, Seller nor any agent acting on behalf of either Buyer or Seller will take any action which would subject the sale of the Note to the provisions of Section 5 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
25.COMPLIANCE WITH ERISA. As of the date of this Agreement, the Buyer maintains no employee benefit plans that require compliance with ERISA. If at any time the Buyer shall institute any employee benefit plans, the Buyer shall at all times comply with the requirements of ERISA.
26.DOCUMENTATION REQUIREMENTS, SUFFICIENCY OF CONSENTS AND APPROVALS. Each written instrument required by this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents to be furnished to Lender shall be duly executed by the person or party specified (or where no particular person or party is specified, by such person or party as Lender shall require), duly acknowledged where required by Lender and, in the case of affidavits and similar sworn instruments, duly sworn to and subscribed before a notary public duly authorized to act in the
12
Loan No. 73100202
premises by governmental authority; shall be furnished to Lender in one or more copies as required by Lender; and shall in all respects be in form and substance satisfactory to Lender and its legal counsel. All title policies, surveys, appraisals, and other evidence, information or documentation required by Lender shall be in form and substance satisfactory to Lender and its legal counsel in all respects.
27.EVIDENTIARY REQUIREMENTS. Where evidence of the existence or non-existence of any circumstance or condition is required by this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents to be furnished to Lender, such evidence shall in all respects be in form and substance satisfactory to Lender, and the duty to furnish such evidence shall not be considered satisfied until Lender shall have acknowledged in writing that it is satisfied therewith.
28.NUMBER, ORDER AND CAPTIONS IMMATERIAL. The numbering, order and captions or headings of the several articles, sections and paragraphs of this Agreement, the Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents are for convenience of reference only and shall not be considered in construing such instruments.
29.ENTIRE AGREEMENT. THIS AGREEMENT, AND THE LOAN DOCUMENTS CONTAIN THE ENTIRE AGREEMENT OF THE PARTIES HERETO WITH RESPECT TO THE ASSUMPTION OF THE LOAN BY BUYER AND LENDER'S CONSENT TO THE TRANSFER OF THE PROPERTY TO BUYER, AND SUPERSEDES ANY PRIOR WRITTEN OR ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THEM CONCERNING SAID SUBJECT MATTER. THERE ARE NO REPRESENTATIONS, AGREEMENTS, ARRANGEMENTS, OR UNDERSTANDINGS, ORAL OR WRITTEN, BETWEEN AND AMONG THE PARTIES HERETO, RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER CONTAINED IN THE AGREEMENT, WHICH ARE NOT FULLY EXPRESSED HEREIN OR IN THE LOAN DOCUMENTS. THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE EXECUTED AND ACKNOWLEDGED IN MULTIPLE COUNTERPARTS FOR THE CONVENIENCE OF THE PARTIES, WHICH TOGETHER SHALL CONSTITUTE ONE AGREEMENT, AND THE COUNTERPART SIGNATURE AND ACKNOWLEDGMENT PAGES MAY BE DETACHED FROM THE VARIOUS COUNTERPARTS AND ATTACHED TO ONE COPY OF THIS AGREEMENT TO SIMPLIFY THE RECORDATION OF THIS AGREEMENT. THE REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES, AND COVENANTS OF THIS AGREEMENT SHALL CONTINUE AND SURVIVE THE TRANSFER OF THE PROPERTY TO BUYER.
ORAL AGREEMENTS OR ORAL COMMITMENTS TO LOAN MONEY, EXTEND CREDIT, OR FORBEAR FROM ENFORCING REPAYMENT OF A DEBT ARE NOT ENFORCEABLE
