Section 4.2. Inspections; Cooperation.
Borrower shall permit representatives of Lender to enter upon the Land, to inspect the Improvements and any and all materials to be used in connection with any construction at the Property, including any construction of tenant improvements, to examine all detailed plans and shop drawings and similar materials as well as all records and books of account maintained by or on behalf of Borrower relating thereto and to discuss the affairs, finances and accounts pertaining to the Loan and the Improvements with representatives of Borrower. Borrower shall at all times cooperate and cause each and every one of its contractors, subcontractors and material suppliers to cooperate with the representatives of Lender in connection with or in aid of the performance of Lender’s functions under this Agreement. Except in the event of an emergency, Lender shall give Borrower at least twenty-four hours’ notice by telephone in each instance before entering upon the Land and/or exercising any other rights granted in this Section.
Section 4.3. Payment and Performance of Contractual Obligations.
Borrower shall perform in a timely manner all of its obligations under any and all contracts and agreements related to any construction activities at the Property or the maintenance or operation of the Improvements, and Borrower will pay when due all bills for services or labor performed and materials supplied in connection with such construction, maintenance and/or operation. Within thirty (30) days after the filing of any mechanic’s lien or other lien or encumbrance against the Property, Borrower will promptly discharge the same by payment or
6
filing a bond or otherwise as permitted by Law. So long as Lender’s security has been protected by the filing of a bond or otherwise in a manner satisfactory to Lender in its sole and absolute discretion, Borrower shall have the right to contest in good faith any claim, lien or encumbrance, provided that Borrower does so diligently and without prejudice to Lender or delay in completing construction of any tenant improvements.
Section 4.4. Insurance.
Borrower shall maintain the following insurance at its sole cost and expense:
(a) Insurance against Casualty to the Property under a policy or policies covering such risks as are presently included in “special form” (also known as “all risk”) coverage, including such risks as are ordinarily insured against by similar businesses, but in any event including fire, lightning, windstorm, hail, explosion, riot, riot attending a strike, civil commotion, damage from aircraft, smoke, vandalism, malicious mischief and acts of terrorism. Such insurance shall name Lender as mortgagee and loss payee. Unless otherwise agreed in writing by Lender, such insurance shall be for the full insurable value of the Property on a replacement cost basis, with a deductible amount, if any, satisfactory to Lender. No policy of insurance shall be written such that the proceeds thereof will produce less than the minimum coverage required by this Section by reason of co-insurance provisions or otherwise. The term “full insurable value” means one hundred percent (100%) of the actual replacement cost of the Property, including tenant improvements (excluding foundation and excavation costs and costs of underground flues, pipes, drains and other uninsurable items).
(b) Comprehensive (also known as commercial) general liability insurance on an “occurrence” basis against claims for “personal injury” liability and liability for death, bodily injury and damage to property, products and completed operations, in limits satisfactory to Lender with respect to any one occurrence and the aggregate of all occurrences during any given annual policy period. Such insurance shall name Lender as an additional insured.
(c) Workers’ compensation insurance for all employees of Borrower in such amount as is required by Law and including employer’s liability insurance, if required by Lender.
(d) During any period of construction of tenant improvements, Borrower shall maintain, or cause others to maintain, such insurance as may be required by Lender of the type customarily carried in the case of similar construction for one hundred percent (100%) of the full replacement cost of materials stored at or upon the Property. During any period of other construction upon the Property, Borrower shall maintain, or cause others to maintain, builder’s risk insurance (non-reporting form) of the type customarily carried in the case of similar construction for one hundred percent (100%) of the full replacement cost of work in place and materials stored at or upon the Property.
(e) If at any time any portion of any structure on the Property is insurable against Casualty by flood and is located in a Special Flood Hazard Area under the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as amended, a flood insurance policy on the structure and Borrower owned contents in form and amount acceptable to Lender but in no amount less than the amount
7
sufficient to meet the requirements of applicable Law as such requirements may from time to time be in effect.
(f) Loss of rental value insurance or business interruption insurance in an amount equal to twelve (12) months of the projected gross income of the Property and an extended period of indemnity endorsement providing an additional six (6) months’ (180 days) loss of rental value or business interruption insurance after the Property has been restored or until the projected gross income returns to the level that existed prior to the loss, whichever is first to occur.
(g) Such other and further insurance as may be required from time to time by Lender in order to comply with regular requirements and practices of Lender in similar transactions including, if required by Lender, boiler and machinery insurance, pollution liability insurance, wind insurance and earthquake insurance, so long as any such insurance is generally available at commercially reasonable premiums as determined by Lender from time to time.
Each policy of insurance (i) shall be issued by one or more insurance companies each of which must have an A.M. Best Company financial and performance rating of A-VII or better and are qualified or authorized by the Laws of the State to assume the risks covered by such policy, (ii) with respect to the insurance described under the preceding Subsections (a), (d), (e) and (f), shall have attached thereto standard non-contributing, non-reporting mortgagee clauses in favor of and entitling Lender without contribution to collect any and all proceeds payable under such insurance, either as sole payee or as joint payee with Borrower, (iii) shall provide that such policy shall not be canceled or modified for nonpayment of premiums without at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Lender, or for any other reason without at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Lender, and (iv) shall provide that any loss otherwise payable thereunder shall be payable notwithstanding any act or negligence of Borrower which might, absent such agreement, result in a forfeiture of all or a part of such insurance payment. Borrower shall promptly pay all premiums when due on such insurance and, not less than ten (10) days prior to the expiration dates of each such policy, Borrower will deliver to Lender acceptable evidence of insurance, such as a renewal policy or policies marked “premium paid” or other evidence satisfactory to Lender reflecting that all required insurance is current and in force. Borrower will immediately give Notice to Lender of any cancellation of, or change in, any insurance policy. Lender shall not, because of accepting, rejecting, approving or obtaining insurance, incur any liability for (A) the existence, nonexistence, form or legal sufficiency thereof, (B) the solvency of any insurer, or (C) the payment of losses. Borrower may satisfy any insurance requirement hereunder by providing one or more “blanket” insurance policies, subject to Lender’s approval in each instance as to limits, coverages, forms, deductibles, inception and expiration dates, and cancellation provisions.
Section 4.5. Adjustment of Condemnation and Insurance Claims.
Borrower shall give prompt Notice to Lender of any Casualty or any Condemnation or threatened Condemnation. Lender is authorized, at its sole and absolute option, to commence, appear in and prosecute, in its own or Borrower’s name, any action or proceeding relating to any Condemnation or Casualty, and to make proof of loss for and to settle or compromise any Claim in connection therewith. In such case, Lender shall have the right to
8
receive all Condemnation Awards and Insurance Proceeds, and may deduct therefrom all of its Expenses. However, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and Borrower is diligently pursuing its rights and remedies with respect to a Claim, Lender will obtain Borrower’s written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) before making proof of loss for or settling or compromising such Claim. Borrower agrees to diligently assert its rights and remedies with respect to each Claim and to promptly pursue the settlement and compromise of each Claim subject to Lender’s approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If, prior to the receipt by Lender of any Condemnation Award or Insurance Proceeds, the Property shall have been sold pursuant to the provisions of the Mortgage, Lender shall have the right to receive such funds (a) to the extent of any deficiency found to be due upon such sale with interest thereon (whether or not a deficiency judgment on the Mortgage shall have been sought or recovered or denied), and (b) to the extent necessary to reimburse Lender for its Expenses. If any Condemnation Awards or Insurance Proceeds are paid to Borrower, Borrower shall receive the same in trust for Lender. Within ten (10) days after Borrower’s receipt of any Condemnation Awards or Insurance Proceeds, Borrower shall deliver such awards or proceeds to Lender in the form in which they were received, together with any endorsements or documents that may be necessary to effectively negotiate or transfer the same to Lender. Borrower agrees to execute and deliver from time to time, upon the request of Lender, such further instruments or documents as may be requested by Lender to confirm the grant and assignment to Lender of any Condemnation Awards or Insurance Proceeds.
Section 4.6. Utilization of Net Proceeds.
(a) Net Proceeds must be utilized either for payment of the Obligations or for the restoration of the Property. Net Proceeds may be utilized for the restoration of the Property only if no Default shall exist and only if in the reasonable judgment of Lender (i) there has been no material adverse change in the financial viability of the Improvements, (ii) the Net Proceeds, together with other funds deposited with Lender for that purpose, are sufficient to pay the cost of the restoration pursuant to a budget and plans and specifications approved by Lender, and (iii) the restoration can be completed prior to the final maturity of the Loan and prior to the date required by any permanent loan commitment or any purchase and sale agreement or by any Lease. Otherwise, Net Proceeds shall be utilized for payment of the Obligations.
(b) If Net Proceeds are to be utilized for the restoration of the Property, the Net Proceeds, together with any other funds deposited with Lender for that purpose, must be deposited in a Borrower’s Deposit Account, which shall be an interest-bearing account, with all accrued interest to become part of Borrower’s deposit. Borrower agrees that it shall include all interest and earnings on any such deposit as its income (and, if Borrower is a partnership or other pass-through entity, the income of its partners, members or beneficiaries, as the case may be), and shall be the owner of all funds on deposit in the Borrower’s Deposit Account for federal and applicable state and local tax purposes. Lender shall have the exclusive right to manage and control all funds in the Borrower’s Deposit Account, but Lender shall have no fiduciary duty with respect to such funds. Lender will advance the deposited funds from time to time to Borrower for the payment of costs of restoration of the Property upon presentation of evidence acceptable to Lender that such restoration has been completed satisfactorily and lien-free and in compliance with law. Any account fees and charges may be deducted from the balance, if any, in the Borrower’s Deposit Account. Borrower grants to Lender a security interest in the
9
Borrower’s Deposit Account and all funds hereafter deposited to such deposit account, and any proceeds thereof, as security for the Obligations. Such security interest shall be governed by the Uniform Commercial Code of the State, and Lender shall have available to it all of the rights and remedies available to a secured party thereunder. The Borrower’s Deposit Account may be established and held in such name or names as Lender shall deem appropriate, including in the name of Lender. Borrower hereby constitutes and appoints Lender and any officer or agent of Lender its true and lawful attorneys-in-fact with full power of substitution to open the Borrower’s Deposit Account and to do any and every act that Borrower might do on its own behalf to fulfill the terms of this Section 4.6. To the extent permitted by Law, Borrower hereby ratifies all that said attorneys shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. It is understood and agreed that this power of attorney, which shall be deemed to be a power coupled with an interest, cannot be revoked.
Section 4.7. Management.
Borrower at all times shall provide for the competent and responsible management and operation of the Property. At all times, Borrower shall cause the Property to be managed by an Approved Manager. All management contracts affecting the Property shall be terminable upon thirty (30) days’ written notice without penalty or charge (except for unpaid accrued management fees). All management contracts must be approved in writing by Lender prior to the execution of the same and must contain a provision expressly stating that it is subordinate to the Mortgage.
Section 4.8. Books and Records; Financial Statements; Tax Returns.
(a) Borrower will keep and maintain full and accurate books and records administered in accordance with sound accounting principles, consistently applied, showing in detail the earnings and expenses of the Property and the operation thereof. Borrower will keep and maintain its books and records, including recorded data of any kind and regardless of the medium of recording, at the address of Borrower set forth in Section 8.6. Borrower shall permit Lender, or any Person authorized by Lender, to inspect and examine such books and records (regardless of where maintained) and all supporting vouchers and data and to make copies and extracts therefrom at all reasonable times and as often as may be requested by Lender.
(b) Borrower shall provide or cause to be provided to Lender with a copy for each Lender all of the following:

Items provided under this paragraph shall be in form and detail satisfactory to Lender. |
|
|

At the time of submitting (or prior to the date due, in the case of deemed submission by virtue of filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission as set forth above), and together with, Guarantor’s quarterly financial statements, Guarantor shall submit a detailed certificate of the compliance of the financial covenants set forth in the Guaranty. |
|
|
|
(v) From time to time promptly after Lender’s request, such additional information, reports and statements respecting the Property and the Improvements, or the business operations and financial condition of each reporting party, as Lender may reasonably request. |
All Financial Statements shall be in form and detail satisfactory to Lender and shall contain or be attached to the signed and dated written certification of the reporting party in form specified by Lender to certify that the Financial Statements are furnished to Lender in connection with the extension of credit by Lenders and constitute a true and correct statement of the reporting party’s financial position. All certifications and signatures on behalf of corporations, partnerships or other entities shall be by a representative of the reporting party satisfactory to Lender. All Financial Statements for a reporting party who is an individual shall be on Lender’s then-current personal financial statement form or in another form satisfactory to Lender. All fiscal year-end Financial Statements of Acadia Realty Trust shall be audited and certified, without any qualification or exception not acceptable to Lender, by independent certified public accountants acceptable to Lender, and shall contain all reports and disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles for a fair presentation. The annual Financial Statements of Borrower may
11
be internally prepared. All quarterly and semi-annual Financial Statements shall be compiled or reviewed by independent certified public accountants acceptable to Lender, or may be prepared by the reporting party.
Section 4.9. Estoppel Certificates.
Within ten (10) days after any request by Lender or a proposed assignee or purchaser of the Loan or any interest therein, Borrower shall certify in writing to Lender, or to such proposed assignee or purchaser, the then unpaid balance of the Loan and whether Borrower claims any right of defense or setoff to the payment or performance of any of the Obligations, and if Borrower claims any such right of defense or setoff, Borrower shall give a detailed written description of such claimed right, whether or not the Borrower is in default under the Loan Documents, and such other matters as Lender may reasonably require.
Section 4.10. Taxes; Tax Receipts.
Borrower shall pay and discharge all Taxes prior to the date on which penalties are attached thereto unless and to the extent only that such Taxes are contested in accordance with the terms of the Mortgage. If Borrower fails, following demand, to provide Lender the tax receipts required under the Mortgage, without limiting any other remedies available to Lender, Lender may, at Borrower’s sole expense, obtain and enter into a tax services contract with respect to the Property with a tax reporting agency satisfactory to Lender.
Section 4.11. Lender’s Rights to Pay and Perform.
If, after any required notice, Borrower fails to promptly pay or perform any of the Obligations within any applicable grace or cure periods, Lender, without Notice to or demand upon Borrower, and without waiving or releasing any Obligation or Default, may (but shall be under no obligation to) at any time thereafter make such payment or perform such act for the account and at the expense of Borrower. Lender may enter upon the Property for that purpose and take all action thereon as Lender considers necessary or appropriate.
Section 4.12. Reimbursement; Interest.
If Lender shall incur any Expenses or pay any Claims by reason of the Loan or the rights and remedies provided under the Loan Documents (regardless of whether or not any of the Loan Documents expressly provide for an indemnification by Borrower against such Claims), Lender’s payment of such Expenses and Claims shall constitute advances to Borrower which shall be paid by Borrower to Lender on demand, together with interest thereon from the date incurred until paid in full at the rate of interest then applicable to the Loan under the terms of the Note. Each advance shall be secured by the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents as fully as if made to Borrower, regardless of the disposition thereof by the party or parties to whom such advance is made. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, in any action or proceeding to foreclose the Mortgage or to recover or collect the Obligations, the provisions of Law governing the recovery of costs, disbursements and allowances shall prevail unaffected by this Section.
12
Section 4.13. Notification by Borrower.
Borrower will promptly give Notice to Lender of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents.

Section 4.14. Indemnification by Borrower.
Borrower agrees to indemnify Lender and to hold Lender harmless from and against, and to defend Lender by counsel approved by Lender against, any and all Claims directly or indirectly arising out of or resulting from any transaction, act, omission, event or circumstance in any way connected with the Property or the Loan, including any Claim arising out of or resulting from (a) any construction activity at the Property, including any defective workmanship or materials; (b) any failure by Borrower to comply with the requirements of any Laws or to comply with any agreement that applies or pertains to the Property, including any agreement with a broker or “finder” in connection with the Loan or other financing of the Property; (c) any failure by Borrower to observe and perform any of the obligations imposed upon the landlord under the Leases; (d) any other Default or Event of Default hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents; or (e) any assertion or allegation that Lender is liable for any act or omission of Borrower or any other Person in connection with the ownership, financing, leasing, operation or sale of the Property; provided, however, that Borrower shall not be obligated to indemnify Lender with respect to any Claim arising solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Lender. The agreements and indemnifications contained in this Section shall apply to Claims arising both before and after the repayment of the Loan and shall survive the repayment of the Loan, any foreclosure or deed, assignment or conveyance in lieu thereof and any other action by Lender to enforce the rights and remedies of Lender hereunder or under the other Loan Documents.
Section 4.15. Fees and Expenses.
Borrower shall pay all fees, charges, costs and expenses required to satisfy the conditions of the Loan Documents.

Lender may obtain from time to time an appraisal of all or any part of the Property, prepared in accordance with written instructions from Lender, from a third-party appraiser satisfactory to, and engaged directly by, Lender. The cost of one such appraisal obtained by Lender in each calendar year and the cost of each such appraisal obtained by Lender following the occurrence of an Event of Default shall by borne by Borrower and shall be paid by Borrower on demand. Provided no Event of Default exists and Borrower has paid the cost of any such appraisal as aforesaid and Borrower executes and delivers Lender’s then standard form of agreement regarding Lender not being responsible for the contents of any such appraisal, Lender shall then provide a copy of such appraisal to Borrower upon request.
Section 4.17. Leasing and Tenant Matters.
Borrower shall comply with the terms and conditions of Schedule 3 in connection with the leasing of space within the Improvements. In addition, Borrower shall deposit with Lender on the date of Borrower’s receipt thereof any and all termination fees or other similar funds paid by tenant in connection with any tenant’s election to exercise an early termination option contained in its respective Lease or otherwise at the Property (the “Termination Fee Deposit”). Lender shall have the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, to either (a) make the Termination Fee Deposit available to reimburse Borrower for Tenant Improvements and Leasing Commissions paid with respect to reletting the vacated space at the Property which shall be disbursed in accordance with Lender’s customary practices, terms and conditions for construction lending or (b) apply the Termination Fee Deposit to repay a portion of the outstanding principal balance of the Loan in accordance with Section 4 of the Note.

No such income shall be distributed or paid to any member, partner, shareholder or, if Borrower is a trust, to any beneficiary or trustee, unless and until all such costs and expenses which are then due shall have been paid in full.
Section 4.20. Representations and Warranties.
Borrower shall take all actions and shall do all things necessary or desirable to cause all of Borrower’s representations and warranties in this Agreement to be true and correct at all times.

Borrower hereby grants to Lender a security interest in Borrower’s interest in the foregoing accounts and deposit accounts. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Borrower shall maintain Bank of America, N.A. as its principal depository bank, including for the maintenance of business, cash management, operating and administrative deposit accounts to the extent any such accounts are owned by Borrower.
Section 4.22. Loan to Value Ratio.
The Property shall have a “Loan to Value Ratio” of not greater than 60%, which Loan to Value Ratio shall be calculated, and defined, as follows: the outstanding principal balance and accrued but unpaid interest on the Loan as of the date of the determination of the ratio shall be divided by the appraised “As-Is” value of the Property. The appraised “As-Is” value of the Property shall be based upon the most recent appraisal performed pursuant to Section 4.16, as reviewed, adjusted and approved by Lender. The Loan to Value Ratio requirement shall be tested not more often than once per calendar year, unless one or more events have occurred which have, alone or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect. In the event the Loan to Value Ratio covenant is not met, Lender shall notify Borrower of such condition and Borrower may satisfy the Loan to Value Ratio covenant by, within thirty (30) days of such notice, either (A) making a principal curtailment on the Loan (which shall not be credited towards future principal amortization required under the Loan Documents) in an amount sufficient to bring the Loan to Value Ratio into compliance and/or (B) provide additional collateral acceptable to Lender, which shall have value (as determined by Lender) which when added to the Property value is sufficient to satisfy the Loan to Value Ratio covenant. If Borrower fails to satisfy the Loan to Value Ratio covenant within such thirty (30) day period, such condition shall constitute an immediate Event of Default. If Borrower has provided additional collateral to Lender to satisfy the Loan to Value Ratio covenant set forth in this Section and a subsequent appraisal performed pursuant to Section 4.16, as reviewed, adjusted and approved by Lender, indicates that such Loan to Value Ratio covenant is satisfied without reliance on such additional collateral (and such additional collateral is not required to satisfy any other covenant contained herein or in the other Loan Documents), then, provided no Event of Default exists, upon request of Borrower, Lender shall release such additional collateral.
Section 4.23. Debt Service Coverage Ratio.
Commencing on December 31, 2011, Borrower shall at all times have a Debt Service Coverage Ratio of at least 1.75 to 1.00. In the event the Debt Service Coverage Ratio covenant is not met, Lender shall notify Borrower of such condition and Borrower may satisfy the Debt Service Coverage Ratio covenant by, within thirty (30) days of such notice, either (A) making a principal curtailment on the Loan (which shall not be credited towards future principal amortization required under the Loan Documents) in an amount sufficient to bring this Debt
15
Service Coverage Ratio into compliance and/or (B) provide additional collateral acceptable to Lender, which shall have value (as determined by Lender) which would, assuming such collateral were liquidated and applied to reduce the outstanding principal amount of the Loan, be sufficient to satisfy the Debt Service Coverage Ratio covenant. If Borrower fails to satisfy the Debt Service Coverage Ratio covenant within such thirty (30) day period, such condition shall constitute an immediate Event Default. If Borrower has provided additional collateral to Lender to satisfy the Debt Service Coverage Ratio covenant set forth in this Section and subsequently Borrower satisfies such Debt Service Coverage Ratio covenant for two (2) consecutive calendar quarters without reliance on such additional collateral (and such additional collateral is not required to satisfy any other covenant contained herein or in the other Loan Documents) as determined by Lender, then, provided no Event of Default exists, upon request of Borrower, Lender shall release such additional collateral.
Section 4.24. Patriot Act.
Borrower shall comply in all respects with the Patriot Act.
Section 4.25. Swap Contracts.
In the event that borrower shall elect to enter into a Swap Contract with Swap Counterparty, Borrower shall comply with all of the terms and conditions of Schedule 4 with respect to all Swap Contracts.

Borrower represents and warrants that Borrower has delivered to Lender Borrower’s standard form of tenant lease and a true and correct copy of all Leases and any guaranty(ies) thereof, affecting any part of the Improvements, together with an accurate and complete rent roll for the Property, and no such Lease or guaranty contains any option or right of first refusal to purchase all or any portion of the Property or any present or future interest therein.

Borrower covenants that Borrower (a) will observe and perform all of the obligations imposed upon the landlord in the Leases and will not do or permit to be done anything to impair the security thereof; (b) will use its best efforts to enforce or secure, or cause to be enforced or secured, the performance of each and every obligation and undertaking of the respective tenants under the Leases and will appear in and defend, at Borrower’s sole cost and expense, any action or proceeding arising under, or in any manner connected with, the Leases; (c) will not collect any of the Rents more than thirty (30) days in advance of the time when the same become due under the terms of the Leases; (d) will not discount any future accruing Rents; (e) without the prior written consent of Lender, will not execute any assignment of the Leases or the Rents; (f) will not modify the rent, the term, the demised premises or the common area maintenance charges under any of the Leases, or add or modify any option or right of first refusal to purchase all or any portion of the Property or any present or future interest therein, or surrender, cancel or terminate any Lease, without the prior written consent of Lender; and (g) will execute and deliver, at the request of Lender, all such assignments of the Leases and Rents in favor of Lender as Lender may from time to time require.
3. Leasing Guidelines.
Borrower shall not enter into any Lease of space in the Improvements unless approved or deemed approved by Lender prior to execution. Borrower’s standard form of tenant lease, and any revisions thereto, must have the prior written approval of Lender. Lender shall be “deemed” to have approved any Lease that: (a) is on the standard form lease approved by Lender with no deviations except as approved by Lender; (b) is entered into in the ordinary course of business with a bona fide unrelated third party tenant, and Borrower, acting in good faith and exercising due diligence, has determined that the tenant is financially capable of performing its obligations under the Lease; (c) is received by Lender, together with any guaranty(ies) and financial information received by Borrower regarding the tenant and any guarantor(s), within fifteen (15) days after execution; (d) reflects an arm’s length transaction; (e) contains no option or right of first refusal to purchase all or any portion of the Property or any present or future interest therein; (f) requires the tenant to execute and deliver to Lender an estoppel certificate in form and substance acceptable to Lender within ten (10) days after notice from Lender; and (g) does not cover in excess of twenty-five percent (25%) of the aggregate net rentable area of

2. Conveyance and Security Interest. To secure Borrower’s Obligations, Borrower hereby transfers, assigns and transfers to Lender, and grants to Lender a security interest in, all of Borrower’s right, title and interest, but not its obligations, duties or liabilities for any breach, in, under and to the Swap Contract, any and all amounts received by Borrower in connection therewith or to which Borrower is entitled thereunder, and all proceeds of the foregoing. All amounts payable to Borrower under the Swap Contract shall be paid to Lender and shall be applied to pay interest or other amounts under the Loan.
3. Cross-Default. It shall be an Event of Default under this Agreement if any Event of Default occurs as defined under any Swap Contract as to which Borrower (or its Affiliate) is the Defaulting Party, or if any Termination Event occurs under any Swap Contract as to which Borrower (or its Affiliate) is an Affected Party. As used in this Section, the terms “Defaulting Party,” “Termination Event” and “Affected Party” have the meanings ascribed to them in the Swap Contract.
4. Remedies; Cure Rights. In addition to any and all other remedies to which Lender and Swap Counterparty are entitled at law or in equity, Swap Counterparty shall have the right, to the extent so provided in any Swap Contract or any Master Agreement relating thereto, (a) to declare an event of default, termination event or other similar event thereunder and to designate an Early Termination Date as defined under the Master Agreement, and (b) to determine net termination amounts in accordance with the Swap Contract and to setoff amounts between Swap Contracts. Lender shall have the right at any time (but shall have no obligation) to take in its name or in the name of Borrower (or its Affiliate) such action as Lender may at any time determine to be necessary or advisable to cure any default under any Swap Contract or to protect the rights of Borrower (or its Affiliate) or Swap Counterparty thereunder; provided, however, that before the occurrence of an Event of Default under this Agreement, Lender shall give prior written notice to Borrower before taking any such action. For this purpose, Borrower hereby constitutes Lender its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full power of substitution,
i
which power of attorney is coupled with an interest and irrevocable, to exercise, at the election of Lender, any and all rights and remedies of Borrower (or its Affiliate) under the Swap Contract, including making any payments thereunder and consummating any transactions contemplated thereby, and to take any action that Lender may deem proper in order to collect, assert or enforce any claim, right or title, in and to the Swap Contract hereby assigned and conveyed, and generally to take any and all such action in relation thereto as Lender shall deem advisable. Lender shall not incur any liability if any action so taken by Lender or on its behalf shall prove to be inadequate or invalid. Borrower expressly understands and agrees that Lender is not hereby assuming any duties or obligations of Borrower (or its Affiliate) to make payments to Swap Counterparty under any Swap Contract or under any other Loan Document. Such payment duties and obligations remain the responsibility of Borrower (or its Affiliate) notwithstanding any language in this Agreement.
5. Timing of Interest Rate Periods. At all times when any Swap Contract is in effect, Borrower shall elect Interest Periods of one month in duration for all LIBOR Rate Principal. As used herein, the terms “Interest Period” and “LIBOR Rate Principal” have the meanings ascribed to them in the Note. Borrower shall time its rate elections under the Note so that each Interest Period for LIBOR Rate Principal ends on a day when a payment is due from either counterparty under any Swap Contract.

This Mortgage shall also be effective as a financing statement with respect to any other Property as to which a security interest may be perfected by the filing of a financing statement and may be filed as such in any appropriate filing or recording office. The respective mailing addresses of Mortgagor and Mortgagee are set forth in the opening paragraph of this Mortgage.

Mortgagor hereby irrevocably authorizes Mortgagee at any time and from time to time to file any initial financing statements, amendments thereto and continuation statements as authorized by applicable Law, reasonably required by Mortgagee to establish or maintain the validity, perfection and priority of the security interests granted in this Mortgage. The foregoing authorization includes Mortgagor’s irrevocable authorization for Mortgagee at any time and from time to time to file any initial financing statements and amendments thereto that indicate the Personalty (a) as “all assets” of Mortgagor or words of similar effect, regardless of whether any particular asset comprised in the Personalty falls within the scope of the Uniform Commercial Code of the State or the jurisdiction where the initial financing statement or amendment is filed, or (b) as being of an equal or lesser scope or with greater detail.

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
Mortgagor makes the following representations and warranties to Mortgagee:
Section 3.1. Title to Real Property.

The Real Property and Personalty is subject to no Encumbrances other than the Permitted Encumbrances.
Section 3.2. Title to Other Property.
Mortgagor has good title to the Personalty, and the Personalty is not subject to any Encumbrance other than the Permitted Encumbrances. None of the Leases, Rents, Design and Construction Documents, Contracts of Sale or Refinancing Commitments are subject to any Encumbrance other than the Permitted Encumbrances.
Section 3.3. Property Assessments.
The Real Property is assessed for purposes of Property Assessments as a separate and distinct parcel from any other property, such that the Real Property shall never become subject to the Lien of any Property Assessments levied or assessed against any property other than the Real Property.
Section 3.4. Independence of the Real Property.
No buildings or other improvements on property not covered by this Mortgage rely on the Real Property or any interest therein to fulfill any requirement of any Governmental Authority for the existence of such property, building or improvements; and none of the Real Property relies, or will rely, on any property not covered by this Mortgage or any interest therein to fulfill any requirement of any Governmental Authority. The Real Property has been properly

Mortgagor has title to and the right to assign the Leases and Rents to Mortgagee, and no other assignment of the Leases or Rents has been granted. To the best of Mortgagor’s knowledge and belief, no tenant or tenants occupying, individually or in the aggregate, more than five percent (5%) of the net rentable area of the Improvements are in default under their Lease(s) or are the subject of any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding.
Section 3.7. Usury.
In no event shall the amount of interest (including any fees, commissions and any other amounts which would constitute interest under State laws governing the maximum interest permitted to be charged) due or payable hereunder or under the Note exceed the maximum rate of interest allowed by State law and the interest rate calculated hereunder shall be calculated accordingly so that such maximum lawful rate is not exceeded. In the event any such payment of interest in excess of the maximum lawful rate is inadvertently made by Mortgagor or Mortgagee, then such excess sum shall be credited as a payment of principal, unless Mortgagor shall notify Mortgagee, in writing, that it elects to have such excess sum returned forthwith. It is the express intent hereof that Mortgagor not pay and Mortgagee not receive, directly or indirectly in any manner whatsoever, interest in excess of that which may legally be paid by Mortgagor under State laws.
Section 3.8. No Liens.
Mortgagor agrees that it shall indemnify and hold Mortgagee harmless against any loss or liability, cost or expense, including without limitation, any judgments, attorneys’ fees and costs, costs of appeal bonds and printing costs, arising out of or relating to any proceeding instituted by any claimant alleging priority over the lien of this Mortgage and/or if the Property or any part thereof is within the State of New York by any claimant alleging a violation by Mortgagor or Mortgagee of any section of Article 3-A of the Lien Law of the State of New York.
Section 3.9. Applicable Laws.

Mortgagor will pay to Mortgagee on demand all amounts paid by Mortgagee for the foregoing and the amount of all expenses incurred by Mortgagee in connection therewith, together with interest thereon from the date when incurred. Such amounts and interest are secured by this Mortgage, which creates a Lien in the Property prior to any right, title, interest, lien, or claim in or upon the Property subordinate to the Lien of this Mortgage.

Mortgagee is not obligated to exercise Mortgagee’s rights under this Section and is not liable to Mortgagor for any failure to do so.
Section 4.12. Maintain Lien.
Mortgagor shall maintain the lien of this Mortgage as a first priority on the Property, subject only to the Permitted Encumbrances, until all of the Obligations have been satisfied in full.

So long as Mortgagee’s security has been protected by the filing of a bond or otherwise in a manner satisfactory to Mortgagee in its sole and absolute discretion, Mortgagor shall have the right to contest in good faith any Claim, Lien or Encumbrance, provided that Mortgagor does so diligently and without prejudice to Mortgagee or delay in completing construction of the Improvements. Mortgagor shall give Mortgagee Notice of any default under any Lien and Notice of any foreclosure or threat of foreclosure with respect to any of the Property. Mortgagor agrees that it shall indemnify and hold Mortgagee harmless against any loss or liability, cost or expense, including without limitation, any judgments, attorney’s fees and costs, costs of appeal bonds and printing costs, arising out of or relating to any proceeding instituted by any claimant alleging priority over the lien of this Mortgage.
Section 5.2. Transfer of the Property.
Mortgagor will not Transfer, or contract to Transfer, all or any part of the Property or any legal or beneficial interest therein (except for certain Transfers of the Accessories expressly permitted in this Mortgage).

15
a transfer of the controlling interest in Mortgagor, other than to an entity owned and controlled by Guarantor
Section 5.3. Removal, Demolition or Alteration of Accessories and Improvements.
Except to the extent permitted by the following sentence, no Improvements or Accessories shall be removed, demolished or materially altered without the prior written consent of Mortgagee. Mortgagor may remove and dispose of, free from the Lien of this Mortgage, such Accessories as from time to time become worn out or obsolete, provided that, either (a) at the time of, or prior to, such removal, any such Accessories are replaced with other Accessories which are free from Liens other than Permitted Encumbrances and have a value at least equal to that of the replaced Accessories (and by such removal and replacement Mortgagor shall be deemed to have subjected such Accessories to the Lien of this Mortgage), or (b) so long as a prepayment may be made without the imposition of any premium pursuant to the Note, such Accessories are sold at fair market value for cash and the net cash proceeds received from such disposition are paid over promptly to Mortgagee to be applied to the prepayment of the principal of the Loan.

Section 5.5. Restrictive Covenants, Zoning, etc.
Without the prior written consent of Mortgagee, Mortgagor will not initiate, join in, or consent to any change in, any restrictive covenant, easement, zoning ordinance, or other public or private restrictions limiting or defining the uses which may be made of the Property. Mortgagor (a) will promptly perform and observe, and cause to be performed and observed, all of the terms and conditions of all agreements affecting the Property, and (b) will do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve intact and unimpaired any and all easements, appurtenances and other interests and rights in favor of, or constituting any portion of, the Property.

Upon the happening of any Event of Default, Mortgagee shall have the right, in addition to any other rights or remedies available to Mortgagee under any of the Loan Documents or applicable Law, to exercise any one or more of the following rights, powers or remedies:
Section 7.1. Acceleration.
Mortgagee may accelerate all Obligations under the Loan Documents whereupon such Obligations shall become immediately due and payable, and Mortgagee may also terminate any Swap Contracts shall immediately terminate, all of the foregoing without notice of default, notice of acceleration or intention to accelerate, presentment or demand for payment, protest, notice of protest, notice of nonpayment or dishonor, or notices or demands of any kind or character (all of which are hereby waived by Mortgagor).
Section 7.2. Foreclosure; Judicial Foreclosure.
(i) Mortgagee may demand that Mortgagor surrender the actual possession of the Property and upon such demand, Mortgagor shall forthwith surrender same to Mortgagee and, to the extent permitted by law, Mortgagee itself, or by such officers or agents as it may appoint, may enter and take possession of all of the Property and may exclude Mortgagor and its agents and employees wholly therefrom.
(ii) If Mortgagor shall for any reason fail to surrender or deliver the Property or any part thereof after Mortgagee’s demand, Mortgagee may obtain a judgment or order conferring on Mortgagee the right to immediate possession or requiring Mortgagor to deliver immediate possession to Mortgagee, to the entry of which judgment or decree Mortgagor hereby specifically consents.
(iii) Mortgagee may from time to time: (A) continue and complete construction of, hold, store, use, operate, manage and control the Property and conduct the business thereof; (B) make all reasonably necessary maintenance, repairs, renewals, replacements, additions, betterments and improvements thereto and thereon and purchase or otherwise acquire additional Personalty; (C) insure or keep the Property insured; (D) exercise all the rights and powers of
18
Mortgagor in its name or otherwise with respect to the same; and (E) enter into agreements with others (including, without limitation, new Leases or amendments, extensions, or cancellations to existing Leases) all as Mortgagee from time to time may determine in its sole discretion. Mortgagor hereby constitutes and irrevocably appoints Mortgagee its true and lawful attorney-in-fact, which appointment is coupled with an interest, with full power of substitution, and empowers said attorney or attorneys in the name of Mortgagor, but at the option of said attorney-in-fact, to do any and all acts and execute any and all agreements that Mortgagee may deem necessary or proper to implement and perform any and all of the foregoing.
(iv) Upon the occurrence of a Default, Mortgagee is authorized and empowered under the POWER OF SALE which is hereby conferred to sell the Property or any part thereof situated in the State of New York at public auction to the highest bidder for cash, with or without having taken possession of same. Any such sale (including Notice thereof) shall comply with the applicable requirements, at the time of sale, of Article 14 of the Real Property Actions and Proceedings Laws of the State of New York or, if and to the extent such statute is not then in force, with the applicable requirements, if any, governing sales of New York real property under powers of sale conferred by mortgages.
(v) Mortgagee may institute one or more actions of foreclosure on this Mortgage or to institute other proceedings according to law for foreclosure, and prosecute the same to judgment, execution and sale, for the collection of the Obligations and all costs and expenses of such proceedings, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and actual attorneys’ expenses.
(vi) To the extent permitted by law, Mortgagee has the option of proceeding as to both the Real Property and the Personalty in accordance with its rights and remedies in respect of the Property, in which event the default provisions of the UCC will not apply. Mortgagee also has the option of exercising, in respect of the Property consisting of Personalty, all of the rights and remedies available to a secured party upon default under the applicable provisions of the UCC in effect in the jurisdiction where the Real Property is located, over any Dispute. In the event Mortgagee elects to proceed with respect to the Personalty separately from the Real Property, whenever applicable provisions of the UCC require that notice be reasonable, ten (10) days’ notice will be deemed reasonable. Mortgagor hereby agrees and consents that, in addition to any methods of service of process provided for under applicable law, all service of process in any such suit, action or proceeding in any state court or any United States federal court sitting in the state specified in the governing law section of this Mortgage may be made by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, directed to Mortgagor at its address for notice set forth in this Mortgage, or at a subsequent address of which Mortgagee received actual notice from Mortgagor in accordance with the notice section of this Mortgage, and service so made shall be complete five (5) days after the same shall have been so mailed. Nothing herein shall affect the right of Mortgagee to serve process in any manner permitted by Law or limit the right of Mortgagee to bring proceedings against Mortgagor in any other court or jurisdiction.
19
Section 7.3. Remedies under the Loan Agreement.
Without limiting the other rights and remedies of Mortgagee set forth in this Mortgage, Mortgagee may exercise any and all rights and remedies of Mortgagee specified in the Loan Agreement, or at law or equity.
Section 7.4. Possession of Property Not Required.
Upon any sale of any item of the Property made pursuant to judicial proceedings for foreclosure (“Judicial Sale”), it will not be necessary for any public officer acting under execution or order of the court (a “Selling Official”) to have any of the Property present or constructively in his possession.
Section 7.5. Mortgages of Conveyance and Transfer.
Upon the completion of every Judicial Sale, the Selling Official will execute and deliver to each purchaser a xxxx of sale or deed of conveyance, as appropriate, for the items of the Property that are sold. Mortgagor hereby grants every such Selling Official the power as the attorney-in-fact of Mortgagor to execute and deliver in Mortgagor’s name all deeds, bills of sale and conveyances necessary to convey and transfer to the purchaser all of Mortgagor’s rights, title and interest in the items of Property which are sold. Mortgagor hereby ratifies and confirms all that such attorneys-in-fact lawfully do pursuant to such power. Nevertheless, Mortgagor, if so requested by the Selling Official or by any purchaser, will ratify any such sale by executing and delivering to such Selling Official or to such purchaser, as applicable, such deeds, bills of sale or other Mortgages of conveyance and transfer as may be specified in any such request.
Section 7.6. Recitals.
The recitals contained in any Mortgage of conveyance or transfer made by a Selling Official to any purchaser at any Judicial Sale will, to the extent permitted by law, conclusively establish the truth and accuracy of the matters stated therein, including the amount of the Obligations, the occurrence of a Default, and the advertisement and conduct of such Judicial Sale in the manner provided herein or under applicable law, and the qualification of the Selling Official. All prerequisites to such Judicial Sale will be presumed from such recitals to have been satisfied and performed.
Section 7.7. Divestiture of Title; Bar.
To the extent permitted by applicable law, every Judicial Sale, and every sale made as contemplated by this Mortgage, will operate to divest all rights, title, and interest of Mortgagor in and to the items of the Property that are sold, and will be a perpetual bar, both at law and in equity, against Mortgagor and Mortgagor’s heirs, executors, administrators, personal representatives, successors and assigns, and against everyone else, claiming the item sold either from, through or under Mortgagor or Mortgagor’s heirs, executors, administrators, personal representatives, successors or assigns.
20
Section 7.8. Receipt of Purchase Money Sufficient Discharge.
A receipt from any person authorized to receive the purchase money paid at any Judicial Sale, or other sale contemplated by this Mortgage, will be sufficient discharge therefor to the purchaser. After paying such purchase money and receiving such receipt, neither such purchaser nor such purchaser’s heirs, executors, administrators, personal representatives, successors or assigns will have any responsibility or liability respecting the application of such purchase money or any loss, misapplication or non-application of any of such purchase money, or to inquire as to the authorization, necessity, expediency or regularity of any such sale.
Section 7.9. Purchase by Mortgagee.
In any Judicial Sale, or other public sale made as contemplated by this Mortgage, Mortgagee may bid for and purchase any of the Property being sold, and will be entitled, upon presentment of the relevant Loan Documents and documents evidencing the same, to apply the amount of the Obligations held by it against the purchase price for the items of the Property so purchased. The amount so applied will be credited against the Obligations in accordance with the terms of the Loan Agreement.
Section 7.10. Sale of Portion of Mortgaged Property.
This Mortgage and the Lien of this Mortgage, as it pertains to any Property that remains unsold, will not be affected by a Judicial Sale of less than all of the Property.
Section 7.11. Judicial Action.
Mortgagee shall have the right from time to time to xxx Mortgagor for any sums (whether interest, damages for failure to pay principal or any installments thereof, taxes, or any other sums required to be paid under the terms of this Mortgage, as the same become due), without regard to whether or not any of the other Obligations shall be due, and without prejudice to the right of Mortgagee thereafter to enforce any appropriate remedy against Mortgagor, including an action of foreclosure or an action for specific performance, for a Default or Event of Default existing at the time such earlier action was commenced.
Section 7.12. Collection of Rents.
Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the license granted to Mortgagor to collect the Rents shall be automatically and immediately revoked, without further notice to or demand upon Mortgagor. Mortgagee may, but shall not be obligated to, perform any or all obligations of the landlord under any or all of the Leases, and Mortgagee may, but shall not be obligated to, exercise and enforce any or all of Mortgagor’s rights under the Leases. Without limitation to the generality of the foregoing, Mortgagee may notify the tenants under the Leases that all Rents are to be paid to Mortgagee, and following such notice all Rents shall be paid directly to Mortgagee and not to Mortgagor or any other Person other than as directed by Mortgagee, it being understood that a demand by Mortgagee on any tenant under the Leases for the payment of Rent shall be sufficient to warrant payment by such tenant of Rent to Mortgagee without the necessity of further consent by Mortgagor. Mortgagor hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs the tenants under the Lease to pay all Rents to Mortgagee instead of to Mortgagor,
21
upon receipt of written notice from Mortgagee, without the necessity of any inquiry of Mortgagor and without the necessity of determining the existence or non-existence of an Event of Default. Mortgagor hereby appoints Mortgagee as Mortgagor’s attorney-in-fact with full power of substitution, which appointment shall take effect upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable prior to the full and final payment and performance of the Obligations, in Mortgagor’s name or in Mortgagee’s name: (a) to endorse all checks and other Mortgages received in payment of Rents and to deposit the same in any account selected by Mortgagee; (b) to give receipts and releases in relation thereto; (c) to institute, prosecute and/or settle actions for the recovery of Rents; (d) to modify the terms of any Leases including terms relating to the Rents payable thereunder; (e) to cancel any Leases; (f) to enter into new Leases; and (g) to do all other acts and things with respect to the Leases and Rents which Mortgagee may deem necessary or desirable to protect the security for the Obligations. Any Rents received shall be applied first to pay all Expenses and next in reduction of the other Obligations. Mortgagor shall pay, on demand, to Mortgagee, the amount of any deficiency between (i) the Rents received by Mortgagee, and (ii) all Expenses incurred together with interest thereon as provided in the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
Section 7.13. Taking Possession or Control of the Property.
Mortgagee may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction to have a receiver appointed to enter upon and take possession of the Property, collect the Rents therefrom and apply the same as the court may direct, such receiver to have all of the rights and powers permitted under the laws of the State. To the extent permitted by law, the right of the appointment of such receiver shall be a matter of strict right without regard to the value or the occupancy of the Property or the solvency or insolvency of Mortgagor. The expenses, including receiver’s fees, attorneys’ fees, costs and agent’s commission incurred pursuant to the powers herein contained, together with interest thereon at the default rate under the Note, shall be secured hereby and shall be due and payable by Mortgagor immediately without notice or demand. Notwithstanding the appointment of any receiver or other custodian, Mortgagee shall be entitled as pledgee to the possession and control of any cash or deposits at the time held by, payable, or deliverable under the terms of this Mortgage to Mortgagee, and Mortgagee shall have the right to offset the unpaid Obligations against any such cash or deposits in such order as Mortgagee may elect.
Section 7.14. Construction and Management of the Property.
Upon obtaining possession of the Property or upon the appointment of a receiver as described in Section 7.13, Mortgagee or the receiver, as the case may be, may, at its sole option, (a) make all necessary or proper repairs and Additions to or upon the Property, (b) operate, maintain, control, make secure and preserve the Property, and (c) complete the construction of any unfinished Improvements on the Property and, in connection therewith, continue any and all outstanding contracts for the erection and completion of such Improvements and make and enter into any further contracts which may be necessary, either in their or its own name or in the name of Mortgagor (the costs of completing such Improvements shall be Expenses secured by this Mortgage and shall accrue interest as provided in the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents). Mortgagee or such receiver shall be under no liability for, or by reason of, any such taking of possession, entry, holding, removal, maintaining, operation or
22
management, except for gross negligence or willful misconduct. The exercise of the remedies provided in this Section shall not cure or waive any Event of Default, and the enforcement of such remedies, once commenced, shall continue for so long as Mortgagee shall elect, notwithstanding the fact that the exercise of such remedies may have, for a time, cured the original Event of Default.
Section 7.15. Uniform Commercial Code.
Mortgagee may exercise any or all of its rights and remedies under the Uniform Commercial Code as adopted by the State as in effect from time to time, (or under the Uniform Commercial Code in force from time to time in any other state to the extent the same is applicable law) or other applicable law as well as all other rights and remedies possessed by Mortgagee, all of which shall be cumulative. Mortgagee is hereby authorized and empowered to enter the Property or other place where the Personalty may be located without legal process, and to take possession of the Personalty without notice or demand, which hereby are waived to the maximum extent permitted by the laws of the State. Upon demand by Mortgagee, Mortgagor shall make the Personalty available to Mortgagee at a place reasonably convenient to Mortgagee. Mortgagee may proceed under the Uniform Commercial Code as to all or any part of the Personalty, and in conjunction therewith may exercise all of the rights, remedies and powers of a secured creditor under the Uniform Commercial Code. Any notification required by the Uniform Commercial Code shall be deemed reasonably and properly given if sent in accordance with the Notice provisions of this Mortgage at least ten (10) days before any sale or other disposition of the Personalty. Mortgagee may choose to dispose of some or all of the property, in any combination consisting of both Personalty and Real Property, in one or more public or private sales to be held in accordance with the Law and procedures applicable to real property, as permitted by Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code. Mortgagor agrees that such a sale of Personalty together with Real Property constitutes a commercially reasonable sale of the Personalty. Mortgagee may proceed under the Uniform Commercial Code as to all or any part of the Personalty, and in conjunction therewith may exercise all of the rights, remedies and powers of a secured creditor under the Uniform Commercial Code. Any notification required by the Uniform Commercial Code shall be deemed reasonably and properly given if sent in accordance with the Notice provisions of this Mortgage at least ten (10) days before any sale or other disposition of the Personalty.
Section 7.16. Application of Proceeds.
Unless otherwise provided by applicable Law, all proceeds from the sale of the Property or any part thereof pursuant to the rights and remedies set forth in this Article VII and any other proceeds received by Mortgagee from the exercise of any of its other rights and remedies hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall be applied first to pay all Expenses and next in reduction of the other Obligations, in such manner and order as Mortgagee may elect.
Section 7.17. Remedies Cumulative and Concurrent.
No right, power or remedy of Mortgagee as provided in the Note, this Mortgage, the Guaranty, or the other Loan Documents is intended to be exclusive of any other right, power, or remedy of Mortgagee, but each and every such right, power and remedy shall be cumulative
23
and concurrent and in addition to any other right, power or remedy available to Mortgagee now or hereafter existing at law or in equity and may be pursued separately, successively or together against Mortgagor, any Guarantor, or any endorser, co-maker, surety or guarantor of the Obligations, or the Property or any part thereof, or any one or more of them, at the sole discretion of Mortgagee. The failure of Mortgagee to exercise any such right, power or remedy shall in no event be construed as a waiver or release thereof.
Section 7.18. Waiver, Delay or Omission.
No waiver of any Event of Default hereunder shall extend to or affect any subsequent or any other Event of Default then existing, or impair any rights, powers or remedies consequent thereon, and no delay or omission of Mortgagee to exercise any right, power or remedy shall be construed to waive any such Event of Default or to constitute acquiescence therein.
Section 7.19. Credit of Mortgagee.
To the maximum extent permitted by the laws of the State, upon any sale made under or by virtue of this Article, Mortgagee may bid for and acquire the Property, or any part thereof, and in lieu of paying cash therefor may apply to the purchase price, any portion of or all of the unpaid Obligations in such order as Mortgagee may elect.
Section 7.20. Sale.
Any sale or sales made under or by virtue of this Article shall operate to divest all the estate, right, title, interest, claim and demand whatsoever at law or in equity, of Mortgagor and all Persons, except tenants pursuant to Leases approved by Mortgagee, claiming by, through or under Mortgagor in and to the properties and rights so sold, whether sold to Mortgagee or to others.
Section 7.21. Proofs of Claim.
In the case of any receivership, insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition, seizure of the Property by any Governmental Authority, or other judicial proceedings affecting Mortgagor, any Guarantor, any endorser, co-maker, surety, or guarantor of the Obligations, or any of their respective properties, Mortgagee, to the extent permitted by law, shall be entitled to file such proofs of claim and other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have its claim allowed in such proceedings for the entire unpaid Obligations at the date of the institution of such proceedings, and for any additional amounts which may become due and payable after such date.
Section 7.22. Waiver of Redemption, Notice, Marshalling, Etc.
Mortgagor hereby waives and releases, for itself and anyone claiming through, by, or under it, to the maximum extent permitted by the laws of the State:
(i) all benefit that might accrue to Mortgagor by virtue of any present or future law exempting the Property, or any part of the proceeds arising from any sale
24
thereof, from attachment, levy or sale on execution, or providing for any appraisement, valuation, stay of execution, exemption from civil process, redemption or extension of time for payment,
(ii) unless specifically required herein, all notices of default, or Mortgagee’s actual exercise of any option or remedy under the Loan Documents, or otherwise, and
(iii) any right to have the Property marshalled.
Section 7.23. Discontinuance of Proceedings.
If Mortgagee shall have proceeded to enforce any right under any Loan Document and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, then except as may be provided in any written agreement between Mortgagor and Mortgagee providing for the discontinuance or abandonment of such proceedings, Mortgagor and Mortgagee shall be restored to their former positions and the rights, remedies and powers of Mortgagee shall continue as if no such proceedings had been instituted.
Section 7.24. Mortgagee’s Actions.
Mortgagee may, at any time without notice to any Person and without consideration, do or refrain from doing any or all of the following actions, and neither Mortgagor, any Guarantor, any endorser, co-maker, surety or guarantor of the Obligations, nor any other Person (hereinafter in this Section collectively referred to as the “Obligor”) now or hereafter liable for the payment and performance of the Obligations shall be relieved from the payment and performance thereof, unless specifically released in writing by Mortgagee: (a) renew, extend or modify the terms of the Note, this Mortgage, the Guaranty and the other Loan Documents, or any of them; (b) forbear or extend the time for the payment or performance of any or all of the Obligations; (c) apply payments by any Obligor to the reduction of the unpaid Obligations in such manner, in such amounts, and at such times and in such order and priority as Mortgagee may see fit; (d) release any Obligor; (e) substitute or release in whole or in part the Property or any other collateral or any portion thereof now or hereafter held as security for the Obligations without affecting, disturbing or impairing in any manner whatsoever the validity and priority of the lien of this Mortgage upon the Property which is not released or substituted, or the validity and priority of any security interest of Mortgagee in such other collateral which is not released or substituted; (f) subordinate the lien of this Mortgage or the lien of any other security interest in any other collateral now or hereafter held as security for the Obligations; (g) join in the execution of a plat or replat of the Land (provided, however, notwithstanding the foregoing, Mortgagee will join in such plat or replat of the Land so long as such plat or replat is acceptable to Mortgagee); (h) join in and consent to the filing of a declaration of condominium or declaration of restrictive covenants regarding all or any part of the Land; (i) consent to the granting of any easement on the Land; and (j) generally deal with any obligor or any other party as Mortgagee may see fit.

ARTICLE VIII
[RESERVED]
ARTICLE IX
MISCELLANEOUS
Section 9.1. Rights, Powers and Remedies Cumulative.
Each right, power and remedy of Mortgagee as provided for in this Mortgage, or in any of the other Loan Documents or now or hereafter existing by Law, shall be cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to every other right, power or remedy provided for in this Mortgage, or in any of the other Loan Documents or now or hereafter existing by Law, and the exercise or beginning of the exercise by Mortgagee of any one or more of such rights, powers or remedies shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise by Mortgagee of any or all such other rights, powers or remedies.
Section 9.2. No Waiver by Mortgagee.
No course of dealing or conduct by or among Mortgagee and Mortgagor shall be effective to amend, modify or change any provisions of this Mortgage or the other Loan Documents. No failure or delay by Mortgagee to insist upon the strict performance of any term, covenant or agreement of this Mortgage or of any of the other Loan Documents, or to exercise any right, power or remedy consequent upon a breach thereof, shall constitute a waiver of any such term, covenant or agreement or of any such breach, or preclude Mortgagee from exercising any such right, power or remedy at any later time or times. By accepting payment after the due date of any of the Obligations, Mortgagee shall not be deemed to waive the right either to require prompt payment when due of all other Obligations, or to declare an Event of Default for failure to make prompt payment of any such other Obligations. Neither Mortgagor nor any other Person now or hereafter obligated for the payment of the whole or any part of the Obligations shall be relieved of such liability by reason of (a) the failure of Mortgagee to comply with any request of Mortgagor or of any other Person to take action to foreclose this Mortgage or otherwise enforce any of the provisions of this Mortgage, or (b) any agreement or stipulation between any subsequent owner or owners of the Property and Mortgagee, or (c) Mortgagee’s extending the time of payment or modifying the terms of this Mortgage or any of the other Loan Documents without first having obtained the consent of Mortgagor or such other Person. Regardless of consideration, and without the necessity for any notice to or consent by the holder of any subordinate Lien on the Property, Mortgagee may release any Person at any time liable for any of the Obligations or any part of the security for the Obligations and may extend the time of payment or otherwise modify the terms of this Mortgage or any of the other Loan Documents
26
without in any way impairing or affecting the Lien of this Mortgage or the priority of this Mortgage over any subordinate Lien. The holder of any subordinate Lien shall have no right to terminate any Lease regardless of whether or not such Lease is subordinate to this Mortgage. Mortgagee may resort to the security or collateral described in this Mortgage or any of the other Loan Documents in such order and manner as Mortgagee may elect in its sole discretion.
Section 9.3. Waivers and Agreements Regarding Remedies.
To the full extent Mortgagor may do so, Mortgagor hereby voluntarily and knowingly:
|
|
|
(a) waives any rights to reinstatement and redemption and the benefits of all present and future valuation, appraisement, homestead, exemption, stay, extension or redemption, right to notice of election to accelerate the Obligations, and moratorium laws under any state or federal law; |
|
|
|
(b) waives all rights to a marshaling of the assets of Mortgagor, including the Property, or to a sale in the inverse order of alienation in the event of a foreclosure of the Property, and agrees not to assert any right under any Law pertaining to the marshaling of assets, the sale in inverse order of alienation, the exemption of homestead, the administration of estates of decedents, or other matters whatsoever to defeat, reduce or affect the right of Mortgagee under the terms of this Mortgage to a sale of the Property without any prior or different resort for collection, or the right of Mortgagee to the payment of the Obligations out of the proceeds of sale of the Property in preference to every other claimant whatsoever; |
|
|

Section 9.7. Severability.
In the event any one or more of the provisions of this Mortgage or any of the other Loan Documents shall for any reason be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, in whole or in part or in any other respect, or in the event any one or more of the provisions of the Loan Documents operates or would prospectively operate to invalidate this Mortgage or any of the other Loan Documents, then and in either of those events, at the option of Mortgagee, such provision or provisions only shall be deemed null and void and shall not affect the validity of the remaining Obligations, and the remaining provisions of the Loan Documents shall remain operative and in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, prejudiced or disturbed thereby.

Mortgagee may release, compromise, modify or settle with any of Mortgagor, in whole or in part, without impairing, lessening or affecting the obligations and liabilities of the others of Mortgagor hereunder or under the Note. Any of the acts mentioned aforesaid may be done without the approval or consent of, or notice to, any of Mortgagor.

Section 9.12. Entire Agreement.
The Loan Documents constitute the entire understanding and agreement between Mortgagor and Mortgagee with respect to the transactions arising in connection with the Loan, and supersede all prior written or oral understandings and agreements between Mortgagor and Mortgagee with respect to the matters addressed in the Loan Documents. In particular, and without limitation, the terms of any commitment by Mortgagee to make the Loan are merged into the Loan Documents. Except as incorporated in writing into the Loan Documents, there are no representations, understandings, stipulations, agreements or promises, oral or written, with respect to the matters addressed in the Loan Documents.
Section 9.13. Maximum Indebtedness.
Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the maximum amount of principal indebtedness secured by this Mortgage at execution or which under any contingency may become secured hereby at any time is $9,360,000 plus all amounts extended by Mortgagee,

after default by Mortgagor hereunder, to enforce, defend and/or maintain the lien of this Mortgage or to protect the Property, or the value thereof, including without limitation, all amounts in respect of insurance premiums, legal fees and all real estate taxes, charges or assessments imposed by law upon the Property, or any other amount, cost or charge to which Mortgagee may become subrogated upon payment as a result of Mortgagor’s failure to pay as required by the terms of the Mortgage plus all accrued but unpaid interest on the obligations secured hereby.
Section 9.14. Lost Note.
Upon receipt of an affidavit of an officer of Mortgagee as to the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of the Note or any other security document which is not of public record, and, in the case of any such loss, theft, destruction or mutilation, upon cancellation of the Note or other security document, Mortgagor will issue, in lieu thereof, a replacement note or other security document in the same principal amount thereof and otherwise of like tenor.
Section 9.15. Right of Setoff.
Mortgagor hereby grants to Mortgagee, a continuing lien, security interest and right of setoff as security for all liabilities and obligations to Mortgagee whether now existing or hereafter arising, upon and against all deposits, credits, collateral and property, now or hereafter in the possession, custody, safekeeping or control of Mortgagee or any entity under the control of Bank of America Corporation and its successors and/or assigns or in transit to any of them. At any time, without demand or notice (any such notice being expressly waived by Mortgagor), Mortgagee may setoff the same or any part thereof and apply the same to any liability or obligation of Mortgagor even though unmatured and regardless of the adequacy of any other collateral security for the Loan. ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO REQUIRE MORTGAGEE TO EXERCISE ITS RIGHTS OR REMEDIES WITH RESPECT TO ANY OTHER COLLATERAL WHICH SECURES THE LOAN, PRIOR TO EXERCISING ITS RIGHT OF SETOFF WITH RESPECT TO SUCH DEPOSITS, CREDITS OR OTHER PROPERTY OF MORTGAGOR, ARE HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVED.
Section 9.16. Waiver of Jury Trial.
MORTGAGOR AND MORTGAGEE HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY CLAIM BASED HEREON, ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS MORTGAGE OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS CONTEMPLATED TO BE EXECUTED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALINGS, STATEMENTS (WHETHER VERBAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF ANY PARTY, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALINGS, STATEMENTS OR ACTIONS OF MORTGAGEE RELATING TO THE ADMINISTRATION OF THE LOAN OR ENFORCEMENT OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS EVIDENCING AND/OR SECURING THE LOAN, AND AGREE THAT NEITHER PARTY WILL SEEK TO CONSOLIDATE ANY SUCH ACTION WITH ANY
30
OTHER ACTION IN WHICH A JURY TRIAL CANNOT BE OR HAS NOT BEEN WAIVED. EXCEPT AS PROHIBITED BY LAW, MORTGAGOR HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO CLAIM OR RECOVER IN ANY LITIGATION ANY SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OR ANY DAMAGES OTHER THAN, OR IN ADDITION TO, ACTUAL DAMAGES. MORTGAGOR CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF MORTGAGEE HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT MORTGAGEE WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER. THIS WAIVER CONSTITUTES A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR MORTGAGEE TO ACCEPT THIS MORTGAGE AND MAKE THE LOAN.
Section 9.17. Choice of Law.
MORTGAGOR AGREES THAT ANY SUIT FOR THE ENFORCEMENT OF THIS MORTGAGE OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS MAY BE BROUGHT IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK OR ANY FEDERAL COURT SITTING THEREIN AND CONSENTS TO THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURT AND SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY SUCH SUIT BEING MADE UPON MORTGAGOR BY MAIL AT THE ADDRESS SET FORTH IN THIS MORTGAGE. MORTGAGOR HEREBY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH SUIT OR ANY SUCH COURT OR THAT SUCH SUIT IS BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM.

It is specifically agreed that time is of the essence as to all matters provided for in this Mortgage.
Section 9.19. Survival of Warranties and Covenants.

Mortgagor hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, any objection that Mortgagor may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue in any such court and any claim that any such court is an inconvenient forum.

(b) On LIBOR Rate Principal, for the applicable Interest Period, the applicable LIBOR Rate.
3.2. Interest Rate Elections.
(a) Subject to the conditions and limitations in this Note, Borrower may by written notice to Lender in the form specified by Lender (a “Rate Election Notice”):
|
|
|
(i) Elect, for a new advance of funds, that such Principal Debt will be LIBOR Rate Principal or, if no Swap Transaction (as defined in the Loan Agreement) is in effect, Base Rate Principal; |
|
|
|
(ii) Elect to convert, on a LIBOR Business Day, all or part of Base Rate Principal into LIBOR Rate Principal; |
|

|
|
|
(iv) Elect to continue, commencing on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, any LIBOR Rate Principal. |
If, for any reason, an effective election is not made in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Note for any principal advance or for any LIBOR Rate Principal for which the corresponding Interest Period is expiring, or to convert Base Rate Principal to LIBOR Rate Principal, then the sums in question will be continued for a one month Interest Period until an effective LIBOR Rate Election is thereafter made for such sums.
(b) Each Rate Election Notice must be received by Lender not later than 10:00 a.m. on the applicable date as follows:
|
|
|
(i) With respect to an advance of or conversion to Base Rate Principal, one (1) Business Day prior to the proposed date of advance or conversion; and |

Each Rate Election Notice shall stipulate: (A) the amount of the advance or of the Principal Debt to be converted or continued; (B) the nature of the proposed advance, conversion or continuation, which shall be either Base Rate Principal, LIBOR Rate Principal or a combination thereof, and in the case of a conversion or continuation, the nature of the Principal Debt to be converted or continued; and (C) in the case of LIBOR Rate Principal, the proposed commencement date and duration of the Interest Period. All such notices shall be irrevocable once given, and shall be deemed to have been given only when actually received by Lender in writing in a form specified by Lender.

3.3. General Conditions Precedent to LIBOR Rate Election. In addition to any other conditions herein, a LIBOR Rate Election shall not be permitted if:
|
|
|
(a) An Event of Default has occurred and has not been waived by Lender or a Potential Default has occurred and is continuing; or |
|
|
|
(b) After giving effect to the requested LIBOR Rate Election, the sum of all LIBOR Rate Principal plus all Base Rate Principal would exceed the principal face amount of this Note; or |
|
|
|
(c) The requested LIBOR Rate Election would cause more than one (1) LIBOR Rate Election by Borrower to be in effect at any one time; or |
|
|
|
(d) The amount of LIBOR Rate Principal requested in the LIBOR Rate Election is other than (x) the full Principal Debt or (y) $1,000,000 a larger integral multiple of $100,000; or |
|
|
|
(e) The requested interest period does not conform to the definition of Interest Period herein; or |
|
|
|
(f) Any of the circumstances referred to in Section 3.5 hereof shall apply with respect to the requested LIBOR Rate Election or the requested LIBOR Rate Principal. |
3.4. Computations and Determinations. All interest shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and paid for the actual number of days elapsed. Lender shall determine each interest rate applicable to the Principal Debt in accordance with this Note and its determination thereof shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. The books and records of Lender shall be conclusive evidence, in the absence of manifest error, of all sums owing to Lender from time to time under this Note, but the failure to record any such information shall not limit or affect the obligations of Borrower under the Loan Documents.
3.5. BBA LIBOR Daily Floating Rate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (x) at any time when there is no Swap Transaction (as defined in the Loan Agreement) in effect with respect to the Principal Debt, at Lender’s election upon the expiration of the next Interest Period, and (y) at such times as Borrower may elect, in a Rate Election Notice subject to the approval of Lender, at Lender’s election upon the expiration of the next Interest Period, the unpaid principal balance of this Note from day to day outstanding which is not past due, shall bear interest at a fluctuating rate of interest per annum (the “Floating Rate”) equal to the BBA LIBOR Daily Floating Rate (as hereinafter defined) for that day plus one hundred forty (140) basis points per annum.
3.6. Unavailability of Rate. Lender may notify Borrower if, with respect to any LIBOR Rate Election, or any LIBOR Rate Principal outstanding hereunder, the London Interbank Offered Rate, or BBA LIBOR Daily Floating Rate, is not available, or if Lender determines that no adequate basis exists for determining the LIBOR Rate (or BBA LIBOR Daily Floating Rate) or that the LIBOR Rate (or BBA LIBOR Daily Floating Rate) will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to Lender of funding or maintaining the applicable LIBOR Rate Principal for such Interest Period, or that any applicable Law, or any request or directive
3
(whether or not having the force of law) of any Tribunal, or compliance therewith by Lender, prohibits or restricts or makes impossible the making or maintaining of such LIBOR Rate Election or LIBOR Rate Principal or the charging of interest on such LIBOR Rate Principal. If Lender so notifies Borrower, then until Lender notifies Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, (a) the obligation of Lender to permit such LIBOR Rate Election (or BBA LIBOR Daily Floating Rate) shall be suspended and (b) all existing affected portions of the Principal Debt shall automatically become Base Rate Principal, either (i) on the last day of the corresponding Interest Period (if Lender determines that it may lawfully continue to fund and maintain the affected LIBOR Rate Principal to such day), if any; or (ii) immediately (with respect to the BBA LIBOR Daily Floating Rate or if Lender determines that it may not lawfully continue to fund and maintain the affected LIBOR Rate Principal to such day) and in such case Borrower shall pay to Lender the Consequential Loss, if any, pursuant to Section 4 hereof.
3.7. Increased Cost and Reduced Return. If at any time after the date hereof, Lender (which shall include, for purposes of this Section 3.6, any corporation controlling Lender) determines that the adoption or modification of any applicable Law regarding taxation, Lender’s required levels of reserves, deposits, insurance or capital (including any allocation of capital requirements or conditions), or similar requirements, or any interpretation or administration thereof by any Tribunal or compliance by Lender with any of such requirements, has or would have the effect of (a) increasing Lender’s costs related to the Indebtedness, or (b) reducing the yield or rate of return of Lender on the Indebtedness, to a level below that which Lender could have achieved but for the adoption or modification of any such requirements, Borrower shall, within fifteen (15) days of any request by Lender, pay to Lender such additional amounts as (in Lender’s sole judgment, after good faith and reasonable computation) will compensate Lender for such increase in costs or reduction in yield or rate of return of Lender. No failure by Lender to immediately demand payment of any additional amounts payable hereunder shall constitute a waiver of Lender’s right to demand payment of any such amounts at any subsequent time. Nothing herein contained shall be construed or shall so operate as to require Borrower to pay any interest, fees, costs or charges greater than is permitted by applicable Law.
3.8. Default Rate. After the occurrence of a Default (including the expiration of any applicable cure period), Lender, in Lender’s sole discretion and without notice or demand, may raise the rate of interest accruing on the outstanding principal balance of this Note by three hundred (300) basis points above the rate of interest otherwise applicable (“Default Rate”), independent of whether Lender elects to accelerate the outstanding principal balance of this Note.

If this Note is prepaid in full, any commitment of Lender for further advances shall automatically terminate. No Prepaid Principal may be reborrowed.
(b) Within fifteen (15) days after request by Lender (or at the time of any prepayment), Borrower shall pay to Lender such amount or amounts as will compensate Lender for any loss, cost, expense, penalty, claim or liability, including any loss incurred in obtaining, prepaying, liquidating or employing deposits or other funds from third parties and any loss of revenue, profit or yield, as determined by Lender in its judgment reasonably exercised (together, “Consequential Loss”) incurred by Lender with respect to any LIBOR Rate, including any LIBOR Rate Election or LIBOR Rate Principal as a result of: (i) the failure of Borrower to make any payment on the date or in the amount specified in any Prepayment Notice from Borrower to Lender; (ii) the failure of Borrower to borrow, continue or convert into LIBOR Rate Principal on the date or in the amount specified in any Rate Election Notice or other notice given by Borrower to Lender; (iii) the early termination of any Interest Period for any reason; or (iv) the payment or prepayment of any amount on a date other than the date such amount is required or permitted to be paid or prepaid.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the amount of the Consequential Loss shall never be less than zero or greater than is permitted by applicable Law. Lender shall provide a notice to Borrower setting forth Lender’s determination of any Consequential Loss, which notice shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error. Lender reserves the right to provide interim calculations of such Consequential Loss in any notice of default or notice of sale for information purposes, but the exact amount of such Consequential Loss shall be calculated only upon the actual prepayment of LIBOR Rate Principal as described herein.

Lender may include the amount of the Consequential Loss in any credit bid Lender may make at a foreclosure sale. Lender shall have no obligation to purchase, sell and/or match funds in connection with the funding or maintaining of the Loan or any portion thereof. The obligations of Borrower under this Section shall survive any termination of the Loan Documents and payment of this Note and shall not be waived by any delay by Lender in seeking such compensation.
Section 5. Late Charges. If Borrower shall fail to make any payment under the terms of this Note (other than the payment due at maturity) within fifteen (15) days after the date such payment is due, Borrower shall pay to Lender on demand a late charge equal to four percent (4%) of the amount of such payment. Such fifteen (15) day period shall not be construed as in any way extending the due date of any payment. The late charge is imposed for the purpose of defraying the expenses of Lender incident to handling such delinquent payment. This charge shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other amount that Lender may be entitled to receive or action that Lender may be authorized to take as a result of such late payment.
8
Section 6. Certain Provisions Regarding Payments. All payments made under this Note shall be applied, to the extent thereof, to late charges, to accrued but unpaid interest, to unpaid principal, and to any other sums due and unpaid to Lender under the Loan Documents, in such manner and order as Lender may elect in its sole discretion, any instructions from Borrower or anyone else to the contrary notwithstanding. Remittances shall be made without offset, demand, counterclaim, deduction, or recoupment (each of which is hereby waived) and shall be accepted subject to the condition that any check or draft may be handled for collection in accordance with the practice of the collecting bank or banks. Acceptance by Lender of any payment in an amount less than the amount then due on any indebtedness shall be deemed an acceptance on account only, notwithstanding any notation on or accompanying such partial payment to the contrary, and shall not in any way (a) waive or excuse the existence of an Event of Default (as hereinafter defined), (b) waive, impair or extinguish any right or remedy available to Lender hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, or (c) waive the requirement of punctual payment and performance or constitute a novation in any respect. Payments received after 2:00 p.m. shall be deemed to be received on, and shall be posted as of, the following Business Day. Whenever any payment under this Note or any other Loan Document falls due on a day which is not a Business Day, such payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day.
Section 7. Events of Default. The occurrence of any one or more of the following shall constitute an “Event of Default” under this Note:

|
|
|
(b) Any covenant, agreement or condition in this Note is not fully and timely performed, observed or kept, subject to any applicable grace or cure period. |
|
|
|
(c) An Event of Default (as therein defined) occurs under any of the Loan Documents other than this Note (subject to any applicable grace or cure period). |
|
|
Section 8. Remedies. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender may at any time thereafter exercise any one or more of the following rights, powers and remedies: |
|
|
|
|
(a) Lender may accelerate the Maturity Date and declare the unpaid principal balance and accrued but unpaid interest on this Note, and all other amounts payable hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, at once due and payable, and upon such declaration the same shall at once be due and payable. |
|
|
|
(b) Lender may set off the amount owed by Borrower to Lender, whether or not matured and regardless of the adequacy of any other collateral securing this Note, against any and all accounts, credits, money, securities or other property now or hereafter on deposit with, held by or in the possession of Lender to the credit or for the account of Borrower, without notice to or the consent of Borrower. |
|
|
|
(c) Lender may exercise any of its other rights, powers and remedies under the Loan Documents or at law or in equity. |
9
Section 9. Remedies Cumulative. All of the rights and remedies of Lender under this Note and the other Loan Documents are cumulative of each other and of any and all other rights at law or in equity, and the exercise by Lender of any one or more of such rights and remedies shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise by Lender of any or all such other rights and remedies. No single or partial exercise of any right or remedy shall exhaust it or preclude any other or further exercise thereof, and every right and remedy may be exercised at any time and from time to time. No failure by Lender to exercise, nor delay in exercising, any right or remedy shall operate as a waiver of such right or remedy or as a waiver of any Event of Default.
Section 10. Costs and Expenses of Enforcement. Borrower agrees to pay to Lender on demand all costs and expenses incurred by Lender in seeking to collect this Note or to enforce any of Lender’s rights and remedies under the Loan Documents, including court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, whether or not suit is filed hereon, or whether in connection with bankruptcy, insolvency or appeal.
Section 11. Service of Process. Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, the agent hereby designated and appointed by Borrower as Borrower’s agent for service of process. Borrower irrevocably agrees that such service shall be deemed to be service of process upon Borrower in any such suit, action, or proceeding. Nothing in this Note shall affect the right of Lender to serve process in any manner otherwise permitted by law and nothing in this Note will limit the right of Lender otherwise to bring proceedings against Borrower in the courts of any jurisdiction or jurisdictions, subject to any provision or agreement for arbitration or dispute resolution set forth in the Loan Agreement.
Section 12. Heirs, Successors and Assigns. The terms of this Note and of the other Loan Documents shall bind and inure to the benefit of the heirs, devisees, representatives, successors and assigns of the parties.

A determination that any provision of this Note is unenforceable or invalid shall not affect the enforceability or validity of any other provision and the determination that the application of any provision of this Note to any person or circumstance is illegal or unenforceable shall not affect the enforceability or validity of such provision as it may apply to other persons or circumstances. This Note may not be amended except in a writing specifically intended for such purpose and executed by the party against whom enforcement of the amendment is sought. Captions and headings in this Note are for convenience only and shall be disregarded in construing it. This Note and its validity, enforcement and interpretation shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York (without regard to any principles of conflicts of laws) and applicable United States federal law. Whenever a time of day is referred to herein, unless otherwise specified such time shall be the local time of the place where payment of this Note is to be made. The term “Business Day” shall mean a day on which Lender is open for the conduct of substantially all of its banking business at its office in the city in which this Note is payable (excluding Saturdays and Sundays). Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Loan Agreement. The words “include” and “including” shall be interpreted as if followed by the words “without limitation”.
Section 14. Notices. Any notice, request, or demand to or upon Borrower or Lender shall be deemed to have been properly given or made when delivered in accordance with the terms of the Loan Agreement regarding notices.
Section 15. No Usury. It is expressly stipulated and agreed to be the intent of Borrower and Lender at all times to comply with applicable state law or applicable United States federal law (to the extent that it permits Lender to contract for, charge, take, reserve, or receive a greater amount of interest than under state law) and that this Section shall control every other covenant and agreement in this Note and the other Loan Documents. If applicable state or federal law should at any time be judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount called for under this Note or under any of the other Loan Documents, or contracted for, charged, taken, reserved, or received with respect to the Loan, or if Lender’s exercise of the option to accelerate the Maturity Date, or if any prepayment by Borrower results in Borrower having paid any interest in excess of that permitted by applicable law, then it is Lender’s express intent that all excess amounts theretofore collected by Lender shall be credited on the principal balance of this Note and all other indebtedness secured by the Mortgage, and the provisions of this Note and the other Loan Documents shall immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new documents, so as to comply with the applicable law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder or thereunder. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Lender for the use or forbearance of the Loan shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the full stated term of the Loan.
11
Section 16. Lost Note. Upon receipt of an affidavit of an officer of Lender as to the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Note or any other security document which is not of public record, and, in the case of any such loss, theft, destruction or mutilation, upon cancellation of this Note or other security document, Borrower will issue, in lieu thereof, a replacement note or other security document in the same principal amount thereof and otherwise of like tenor.
Section 17. Method of Payment. All payments due under this Note shall be made by Borrower to Lender at Xxx Xxxxxx Xxxx, 00xx Xxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000 or such other place as Lender may from time to time specify in writing in lawful currency of the United States of America in immediately available funds, without counterclaim or setoff and free and clear of, and without any deduction or withholding for, any taxes or other payments.
Section 18. Pledge to the Federal Reserve. Lender may at any time pledge or assign all or any portion of its rights under the loan documents, which evidence and/or secure the Loan, including any portion of this Note, to any of the twelve (12) Federal Reserve Banks organized under Section 4 of the Federal Reserve Act, 12 U.S.C. Section 341. No such pledge or assignment or enforcement thereof shall release Lender from its obligations under any of the loan documents, which evidence and/or secure the Loan.
Section 19. Right of Setoff. Borrower hereby grants to Lender, a continuing lien, security interest and right of setoff as security for all liabilities and obligations to Lender whether now existing or hereafter arising, upon and against all deposits, credits, collateral and property, now or hereafter in the possession, custody, safekeeping or control of Lender or any entity under the control of Bank of America Corporation and its successors and/or assigns or in transit to any of them. At any time, without demand or notice (any such notice being expressly waived by Borrower), Lender may setoff the same or any part thereof and apply the same to any liability or obligation of Borrower even though unmatured and regardless of the adequacy of any other collateral security for the Loan which is evidenced by this Note. ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO REQUIRE LENDER TO EXERCISE ITS RIGHTS OR REMEDIES WITH RESPECT TO ANY OTHER COLLATERAL WHICH SECURES THE LOAN WHICH IS EVIDENCED BY THIS NOTE PRIOR TO EXERCISING ITS RIGHT OF SETOFF WITH RESPECT TO SUCH DEPOSITS, CREDITS OR OTHER PROPERTY OF THE BORROWER OR ANY GUARANTOR, ARE HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVED.
Section 20. Waiver of Jury Trial. BORROWER AND LENDER HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY CLAIM BASED HEREON, ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS NOTE OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS CONTEMPLATED TO BE EXECUTED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALINGS, STATEMENTS (WHETHER VERBAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF ANY PARTY, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALINGS, STATEMENTS OR ACTIONS OF LENDER RELATING TO THE ADMINISTRATION OF THE LOAN EVIDENCED BY THIS NOTE OR ENFORCEMENT OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS EVIDENCING AND/OR SECURING THE LOAN, AND AGREE THAT NEITHER PARTY WILL SEEK TO
12
CONSOLIDATE ANY SUCH ACTION WITH ANY OTHER ACTION IN WHICH A JURY TRIAL CANNOT BE OR HAS NOT BEEN WAIVED. EXCEPT AS PROHIBITED BY LAW, BORROWER HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO CLAIM OR RECOVER IN ANY LITIGATION ANY SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OR ANY DAMAGES OTHER THAN, OR IN ADDITION TO, ACTUAL DAMAGES. BORROWER CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF LENDER HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT LENDER WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER. THIS WAIVER CONSTITUTES A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR LENDER TO ACCEPT THIS NOTE AND MAKE THE LOAN.
Section 21. Choice of Law. BORROWER AGREES THAT ANY SUIT FOR THE ENFORCEMENT OF THIS NOTE OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS MAY BE BROUGHT IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK OR ANY FEDERAL COURT SITTING THEREIN AND CONSENTS TO THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURT. BORROWER HEREBY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH SUIT OR ANY SUCH COURT OR THAT SUCH SUIT IS BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM.

interest accruing after the commencement of any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding by or against Borrower, whether or not allowed in such proceeding), fees, late charges, costs, expenses, indemnification indebtedness, and other sums of money now or hereafter due and owing, or which Borrower is obligated to pay, pursuant to the terms of the Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage, the Environmental Agreement, any application, agreement, note or other document executed and delivered in connection with any Swap Contract or any other Loan Documents, including any indemnifications contained in the Loan Documents, now or hereafter existing, and all renewals, extensions, refinancings, modifications, supplements or amendments of such indebtedness, or any of the Loan Documents, or any part thereof, (b) any and all transfer taxes which may be due in connection with the foreclosure of the Mortgage or delivery of a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure of the Mortgage, (c) all legal and other costs or expenses paid or incurred by or on behalf of Lender in the enforcement thereof or hereof and (d) any loss, cost, damage or expense paid or incurred by or on behalf of Lender by reason of (i) any fraud or material misrepresentation, (ii) taxes of any kind (whether characterized as transfer, gains or other taxes) payable in connection with the foreclosure sale of the Property, irrespective of who pays such taxes, (iii) application of any proceeds of the Loan to any purpose other than as provided in the Loan Documents (provided that Guarantor’s liability under this clause (iii) shall not apply to distributions made by Borrower more than thirty (30) days prior to an Event of Default provided that such distributions are in the ordinary course of business and Borrower is solvent at the time of such distributions); (iv) the application of any insurance or condemnation proceeds or other funds or payments other than strictly in accordance with the Loan Documents, (v) the misapplication of any security deposits, (vi) rents, sales proceeds, or other sums received after default under the Loan Documents which are not applied to expenses of operating the Property or paid to Lender or a duly appointed receiver of the Property, (vii) any failure to deliver to Lender, after demand therefor, any agreements relating to the operation, management, leasing, use, occupancy or construction of the Property, (viii) any intentional physical waste in respect of the Property, (ix) any failure to pay or discharge any real estate tax, other tax, assessment, fine, penalty or lien against the Property to the extent revenue from leases of the Property was available to pay same, (x) liability as landlord under any lease(s) relating to the Property which liability accrued prior to Lender’s succeeding to such interest of Borrower, which Lender is or becomes obligated for by virtue of Lender succeeding to the interests of Borrower, (xi) any Insolvency Event (as hereinafter defined), (xii) any state of facts or circumstances which are contrary to the representations and warranties set forth in Section 31 or (xiii) Lender being required by any agreement entered into with a tenant of the Property to release any insurance and/or condemnation award proceeds as to which Borrower is not entitled to have applied to restoration of the Property pursuant to the Mortgage (the indebtedness described above in this Section 1 is herein collectively called the “Indebtedness”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Guarantor’s aggregate liability in respect of the principal, interest and other amounts referred to in clause (a) above (the “Payment Liability”) shall be limited to the PL Amount as defined below (the limitation in this proviso being herein referred to as the “Payment Liability Limitation”), provided that (x) in no event shall the Payment Liability Limitation in the foregoing proviso affect Guarantor’s liability hereunder as to all amounts due and owing pursuant to clauses (b), (c) and (d) above (collectively, “Guarantor’s Carveout Liability”) and (y) the effectiveness or continuing effectiveness of the Principal Payment Limitation shall be conditioned on the absence of any Insolvency Event, it being understood and agreed that if said condition is not continuously satisfied Guarantor’s liability hereunder in respect of the entire principal amount of the Loan and
2
all other amounts due under the Loan Documents shall be in full force and effect and the Principal Payment Limitation shall be void and of no force or effect. As used herein, the term “PL Amount” shall mean zero dollars ($0).
As used herein, the term “Insolvency Event” shall mean any voluntary or collusive involuntary filing of any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding by or against Borrower or Guarantor.
In the event of a foreclosure sale, Guarantor agrees that Guarantor’s liability hereunder shall not be reduced out of the proceeds of such sale except to the extent that such proceeds exceed the sum of (x) the unpaid principal amount of the Loan and accrued and unpaid interest, (y) costs and expenses of such sale and (z) the amount of any taxes or assessments or any similar charges paid out of the proceeds of such sale or subject to which the Property has been sold. Nothing herein is intended to require Lender to proceed against Borrower or any security for the Loan before proceeding against Guarantor at any time or limit Lender’s right to proceed against Guarantor at any time or from time to time for principal, interest, default interest and late charges guaranteed hereby which are not paid as and when the same become due in accordance with the terms of the Note, Loan Agreement and Mortgage whether or not Lender shall have declared the principal of the Note and accrued and unpaid interest, default interest and late charges payable thereunder or under the Mortgage or the Loan Agreement to be immediately due and payable.
This Guaranty covers the Indebtedness, whether presently outstanding or arising subsequent to the date hereof, including all amounts advanced by Lender in stages or installments. The guaranty of Guarantor as set forth in this Section 1 is a continuing guaranty of payment and not a guaranty of collection.
2. Intentionally Omitted.
3. Primary Liability of Guarantor.
(a) This Guaranty is an absolute, irrevocable and unconditional guaranty of payment and performance. Guarantor shall be liable for the payment and performance of the Guaranteed Obligations as a primary obligor. This Guaranty shall be effective as a waiver of, and Guarantor hereby expressly waives, any and all rights to which Guarantor may otherwise have been entitled under any suretyship laws in effect from time to time, including any right or privilege, whether existing under statute, at law or in equity, to require Lender to take prior recourse or proceedings against any collateral, security or Person (hereinafter defined) whatsoever.
(b) Guarantor hereby agrees that in the event of (i) default by Borrower in payment or performance of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any part thereof, when such indebtedness or performance becomes due, either by its terms or as the result of the exercise of any power to accelerate; (ii) the failure of Guarantor to perform completely and satisfactorily the covenants, terms and conditions of any of the Guaranteed Obligations; (iii) the death, incompetency, dissolution or insolvency of Guarantor, provided, however, that the death of a Guarantor shall not be an Event of Default if a new guarantor satisfactory to Lender in its sole
3
discretion assumes the deceased Guarantor’s obligations within sixty (60) days of the death of such Guarantor; (iv) the inability of Guarantor to pay debts as they mature; (v) an assignment by Guarantor for the benefit of creditors; (vi) the institution of any proceeding by or against Guarantor in bankruptcy or for a reorganization or an arrangement with creditors, or for the appointment of a receiver, trustee or custodian for any of them or for any of their respective properties; (vii) the breach of any of the covenants set forth in Sections 18 or 19; (viii) the entry of a judgment against Guarantor for an amount in excess of $1,000,000 and Guarantor shall not discharge the same or cause it to be discharged within sixty (60) days from the entry thereof, or shall not appeal therefrom or from the order, decree or process upon which or pursuant to which said judgment was granted, based or entered, and secure a stay of execution pending such appeal; (ix) a writ or order of attachment, levy or garnishment is issued against Guarantor; (x) the falsity in any material respect of, or any material omission in, any representation made to Lender by Guarantor; or (xi) any transfer of assets of any Guarantor, without Lender’s prior consent (except for transfers in the ordinary course of Guarantor’s business provided that any such transfer is in compliance with applicable Laws and all covenants and agreements by which Guarantor is bound, customary political and charitable contributions, and transfers for which Guarantor receives consideration substantially equivalent to the fair market value of the transferred asset) (individually and collectively an “Event of Default”); then upon the occurrence of such Event of Default, the Guaranteed Obligations, for purposes of this Guaranty, shall be deemed immediately due and payable at the election of Lender, and Guarantor shall, on demand and without presentment, protest, notice of protest, further notice of nonpayment or of dishonor, default or nonperformance, or notice of acceleration or of intent to accelerate, or any other notice whatsoever, without any notice having been given to Guarantor previous to such demand of the acceptance by Lender of this Guaranty, and without any notice having been given to Guarantor previous to such demand of the creating or incurring of such indebtedness or of such obligation to perform, all such notices being hereby waived by Guarantor, pay the amount due to Lender or perform or observe the agreement, covenant, term or condition, as the case may be, and pay all damages and all costs and expenses that may arise in consequence of such Event of Default (including, without limitation, all attorneys’ fees and expenses, investigation costs, court costs, and any and all other costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with the collection and enforcement of the Note, this Guaranty or any other Loan Document), whether or not suit is filed thereon, or whether at maturity or by acceleration, or whether before or after maturity, or whether in connection with bankruptcy, insolvency or appeal. It shall not be necessary for Lender, in order to enforce such payment or performance by Guarantor, first to institute suit or pursue or exhaust any rights or remedies against Borrower or others liable on such indebtedness or for such performance, or to enforce any rights against any security that shall ever have been given to secure such indebtedness or performance, or to join Borrower or any others liable for the payment or performance of the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof in any action to enforce this Guaranty, or to resort to any other means of obtaining payment or performance of the Guaranteed Obligations; provided, however, that nothing herein contained shall prevent Lender from suing on the Note or foreclosing the Mortgage or from exercising any other rights thereunder, and if such foreclosure or other remedy is availed of, only the net proceeds therefrom, after deduction of all charges and expenses of every kind and nature whatsoever, shall be applied in reduction of the amount due on the Note and Mortgage, and Lender shall not be required to institute or prosecute proceedings to recover any deficiency as a condition of payment hereunder or enforcement hereof. At any sale of the Property or other collateral given
4
for the Indebtedness or any part thereof, whether by foreclosure or otherwise, Lender may at its discretion purchase all or any part of the Property or collateral so sold or offered for sale for its own account and may, in payment of the amount bid therefor, deduct such amount from the balance due it pursuant to the terms of the Note, Mortgage and other Loan Documents.
(c) Suit may be brought or demand may be made against Borrower or against all parties who have signed this Guaranty or any other guaranty covering all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, or against any one or more of them, separately or together, without impairing the rights of Lender against any party hereto. Any time that Lender is entitled to exercise its rights or remedies hereunder, it may in its discretion elect to demand payment and/or performance. If Lender elects to demand performance, it shall at all times thereafter have the right to demand payment until all of the Guaranteed Obligations have been paid and performed in full. If Lender elects to demand payment, it shall at all times thereafter have the right to demand performance until all of the Guaranteed Obligations have been paid and performed in full.

|
(12) the making of advances by Lender to protect their interest in the Property, preserve the value of the Property or for the purpose of performing any term or covenant contained in any of the Loan Documents; |
|
|
|
(13) the existence of any claim, counterclaim, set-off or other right that Guarantor may at any time have against Borrower, Lender, or any other Person, whether or not arising in connection with this Guaranty, the Note, the Loan Agreement, or any other Loan Document; |
|
|
|
(14) the unenforceability of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations against Borrower, whether because the Guaranteed Obligations exceed the amount permitted by law or violate any usury law, or because the act of creating the Guaranteed Obligations, or any part thereof, is ultra xxxxx, or because the officers or Persons creating the Guaranteed Obligations acted in excess of their authority, or because of a lack of validity or enforceability of or defect or deficiency in any of the Loan Documents, or because Borrower has any valid defense, claim or offset with respect thereto, or because Borrower’s obligation ceases to exist by operation of law, or because of any other reason or circumstance, it being agreed that Guarantor shall remain liable hereon regardless of whether Borrower or any other Person be found not liable on the Guaranteed Obligations, or any part thereof, for any reason (and regardless of any joinder of Borrower or any other party in any action to obtain payment or performance of any or all of the Guaranteed Obligations); |
|
|
|

(b) In the event any payment by Borrower or any other Person to Lender is held to constitute a preference, fraudulent transfer or other voidable payment under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law, or if for any other reason Lender is required to refund
7
such payment or pay the amount thereof to any other party, such payment by Borrower or any other party to Lender shall not constitute a release of Guarantor from any liability hereunder, and this Guaranty shall continue to be effective or shall be reinstated (notwithstanding any prior release, surrender or discharge by Lender of this Guaranty or of Guarantor), as the case may be, with respect to, and this Guaranty shall apply to, any and all amounts so refunded by Lender or paid by Lender to another Person (which amounts shall constitute part of the Guaranteed Obligations), and any interest paid by Lender and any attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses paid or incurred by Lender in connection with any such event. It is the intent of Guarantor, Lender that the obligations and liabilities of Guarantor hereunder are absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and that until the Guaranteed Obligations are fully and finally paid and performed, and not subject to refund or disgorgement, the obligations and liabilities of Guarantor hereunder shall not be discharged or released, in whole or in part, by any act or occurrence that might, but for the provisions of this Guaranty, be deemed a legal or equitable discharge or release of a guarantor. Lender shall be entitled to continue to hold this Guaranty in its possession for the longer of (i) the period after which any performance of obligations under the Environmental Agreement shall accrue, or (ii) a period of one year from the date the Guaranteed Obligations are paid and performed in full and for so long thereafter as may be necessary to enforce any obligation of Guarantor hereunder and/or to exercise any right or remedy of Lender hereunder.
(c) If acceleration of the time for payment of any amount payable by Borrower under the Note, the Loan Agreement, any Swap Contract or any other Loan Document is stayed or delayed by any law or tribunal, all such amounts shall nonetheless be payable by Guarantor on demand by Lender.
5. Subordination. If, for any reason whatsoever, Borrower is now or hereafter becomes indebted to Guarantor:
|
|
|
(a) such indebtedness and all interest thereon and all liens, security interests and rights now or hereafter existing with respect to property of Borrower securing such indebtedness shall, at all times, be subordinate in all respects to the Guaranteed Obligations and to all liens, security interests and rights now or hereafter existing to secure the Guaranteed Obligations; |
|
|
|
(b) Guarantor shall not be entitled to enforce or receive payment, directly or indirectly, of any such indebtedness of Borrower to Guarantor until the Guaranteed Obligations have been fully and finally paid and performed; |
|
|
|
(c) Guarantor hereby assigns and grants to Lender a security interest in all such indebtedness and security therefor, if any, of Borrower to Guarantor now existing or hereafter arising, including any dividends and payments pursuant to debtor relief or insolvency proceedings referred to below. In the event of receivership, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement or other debtor relief or insolvency proceedings involving Borrower as debtor, Lender shall have the right to prove the claim of Lender in any such proceeding so as to establish their rights hereunder and shall have the right to receive directly from the receiver, trustee or other custodian (whether or not an Event of Default shall have occurred or be continuing under any of the Loan Documents), dividends and |
8
|
|
|
payments that are payable upon any obligation of Borrower to Guarantor now existing or hereafter arising, and to have all benefits of any security therefor, until the Guaranteed Obligations have been fully and finally paid and performed. If, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, Guarantor should receive any payment, claim or distribution that is prohibited as provided above in this Section 5, Guarantor shall pay the same to Lender immediately, Guarantor hereby agreeing that it shall receive the payment, claim or distribution in trust for Lender and shall have absolutely no dominion over the same except to pay it immediately to Lender; and |
|
|
|
(d) Guarantor shall promptly upon request of Lender from time to time execute such documents and perform such acts as Lender may require to evidence and perfect its interest and to permit or facilitate exercise of its rights under this Section 5, including, but not limited to, execution and delivery of financing statements, proofs of claim, further assignments and security agreements, and delivery to Lender of any promissory notes or other instruments evidencing indebtedness of Borrower to Guarantor. All promissory notes, accounts receivable ledgers or other evidences, now or hereafter held by Guarantor, of obligations of Borrower to Guarantor shall contain a specific written notice thereon that the indebtedness evidenced thereby is subordinated under and is subject to the terms of this Guaranty. |
6. Other Liability of Guarantor or Borrower. If Guarantor is or becomes liable, by endorsement or otherwise, for any indebtedness owing by Borrower to Lender other than under this Guaranty, such liability shall not be in any manner impaired or affected hereby, and the rights of Lender hereunder shall be cumulative of any and all other rights that Lender may have against Guarantor. This Guaranty is independent of (and shall not be limited by) any other guaranty now existing or hereafter given. Further, Guarantor’s liability under this Guaranty is in addition to any and all other liability Guarantor may have in any other capacity, including without limitation, its capacity as a general partner.
7. Lender Assigns. This Guaranty is for the benefit of Lender and Lender’s successors and assigns, subject to the terms of the Loan Agreement, and in the event of an assignment of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any part thereof, the rights and benefits hereunder, to the extent applicable to the Guaranteed Obligations so assigned, may be transferred with such Guaranteed Obligations. Guarantor waives notice of any transfer or assignment of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any part thereof, and agrees that failure to give notice of any such transfer or assignment will not affect the liabilities of Guarantor hereunder.
8. Binding Effect. This Guaranty is binding not only on Guarantor, but also on Guarantor’s heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns. Upon the death of Guarantor, if Guarantor is a natural person, this Guaranty shall continue against Guarantor’s estate as to all of the Guaranteed Obligations, including that portion incurred or arising after the death of Guarantor and shall be provable in full against Guarantor’s estate, whether or not the Guaranteed Obligations are then due and payable. If this Guaranty is signed by more than one Person, then all of the obligations of Guarantor arising hereunder shall be jointly and severally binding on each of the undersigned, and their respective heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns, and the term “Guarantor” shall mean all of such Persons and each of them individually.
9
9. Governing Law; Forum; Consent to Jurisdiction. This Guaranty is an agreement executed under seal. The validity, enforcement, and interpretation of this Guaranty, shall for all purposes be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York and applicable United States federal law, and is intended to be performed in accordance with, and only to the extent permitted by, such laws. If any Guarantor is a corporation, the designation “(SEAL)” on this Guaranty shall be effective as the affixing of such Guarantor’s corporate seal physically to this Guaranty. All obligations of Guarantor hereunder are payable and performable at the place or places where the Guaranteed Obligations are payable and performable. Guarantor hereby irrevocably submits generally and unconditionally for Guarantor and in respect of Guarantor’s property to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of any state court, or any United States federal court, sitting in the state specified in the first sentence of this Section and to the jurisdiction of any state or United States federal court sitting in the state in which any of the Land is located, over any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Guaranty or the Guaranteed Obligations. Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection that Guarantor may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue in any such court and any claim that any such court is an inconvenient forum. Final judgment in any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court shall be conclusive and binding upon Guarantor and may be enforced in any court in which Guarantor is subject to jurisdiction. Guarantor hereby agrees and consents that, in addition to any methods of service of process provided for under applicable law, all service of process in any such suit, action or proceeding in any state court, or any United States federal court, sitting in the state specified in the first sentence of this Section may be made by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, directed to Guarantor at the address set forth at the end of this Guaranty, or at a subsequent address of which Lender receives actual notice from Guarantor in accordance with the notice provisions hereof, and service so made shall be complete five (5) days after the same shall have been so mailed. Nothing herein shall affect the right of Lender to serve process in any manner permitted by law or limit the right of Lender to bring proceedings against Guarantor in any other court or jurisdiction. Guarantor hereby releases, to the extent permitted by applicable law, all errors and all rights of exemption, appeal, stay of execution, inquisition, and other rights to which Guarantor may otherwise be entitled under the laws of the United States of America or any State or possession of the United States of America now in force or which may hereinafter be enacted. The authority and power to appear for and enter judgment against the Guarantor shall not be exhausted by one or more exercises thereof or by any imperfect exercise thereof and shall not be extinguished by any judgment entered pursuant thereto. Such authority may be exercised on one or more occasions or from time to time in the same or different jurisdiction as often as the Lender shall deem necessary and desirable.
10. Invalidity of Certain Provisions. If any provision of this Guaranty or the application thereof to any Person or circumstance shall, for any reason and to any extent, be declared to be invalid or unenforceable, neither the remaining provisions of this Guaranty nor the application of such provision to any other Person or circumstance shall be affected thereby, and the remaining provisions of this Guaranty, or the applicability of such provision to other Persons or circumstances, as applicable, shall remain in effect and be enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.
11. Attorneys’ Fees and Costs of Collection. Guarantor shall pay on demand all attorneys’ fees and all other costs and expenses incurred by Lender in the enforcement of or
10
preservation of Lender’s rights under this Guaranty including, without limitation, all attorneys’ fees and expenses, investigation costs, and all court costs, whether or not suit is filed hereon, or whether at maturity or by acceleration, or whether before or after maturity, or whether in connection with bankruptcy, insolvency or appeal, or whether in connection with the collection and enforcement of this Guaranty against any other Guarantor, if there be more than one. Guarantor agrees to pay interest on any expenses or other sums due to Lender under this Section 11 that are not paid when due, at a rate per annum equal to the interest rate provided for in the Note. Guarantor’s obligations and liabilities under this Section 11 shall survive any payment or discharge in full of the Guaranteed Obligations.
12. Payments. All sums payable under this Guaranty shall be paid in lawful money of the United States of America that at the time of payment is legal tender for the payment of public and private debts.
13. Controlling Agreement. It is not the intention of Lender or Guarantor to obligate Guarantor to pay interest in excess of that lawfully permitted to be paid by Guarantor under applicable law. Should it be determined that any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other amount payable by Guarantor under this Guaranty constitutes interest in excess of the maximum amount of interest that Guarantor, in Guarantor’s capacity as guarantor, may lawfully be required to pay under applicable law, the obligation of Guarantor to pay such interest shall automatically be limited to the payment thereof in the maximum amount so permitted under applicable law. The provisions of this Section 13 shall override and control all other provisions of this Guaranty and of any other agreement between Guarantor and Lender.
14. Representations, Warranties, and Covenants of Guarantor. Guarantor hereby represents, warrants, and covenants that: (a) Guarantor has a financial interest in Borrower and will derive a material and substantial benefit, directly or indirectly, from the making of the Loan to Borrower and from the making of this Guaranty by Guarantor; (b) this Guaranty is duly authorized and valid, and is binding upon and enforceable against Guarantor; (c) Guarantor is not, and the execution, delivery and performance by Guarantor of this Guaranty will not cause Guarantor to be, in violation of or in default with respect to any law or in default (or at risk of acceleration of indebtedness) under any agreement or restriction by which Guarantor is bound or affected; (d) Guarantor is duly organized, validly existing, and in good standing under the laws of the state of its organization and under Delaware laws, is lawfully doing business in New York, and has full power and authority to enter into and perform this Guaranty; (e) Guarantor will indemnify Lender from any loss, cost or expense as a result of any representation or warranty of the Guarantor being false, incorrect, incomplete or misleading in any material respect; (f) there is no litigation pending or, to the knowledge of Guarantor, threatened before or by any tribunal against or affecting Guarantor other than litigation which, if adversely determined, would not have a material adverse effect on the operations, business, properties, liabilities (actual or contingent), condition (financial or otherwise) of Guarantor; (g) all financial statements and information heretofore furnished to Lender by Guarantor do, and all financial statements and information hereafter furnished to Lender by Guarantor will, fully and accurately present the condition (financial or otherwise) of Guarantor as of their dates and the results of Guarantor’s operations for the periods therein specified, and, since the date of the most recent financial statements of Guarantor heretofore furnished to Lender, no material adverse change has occurred in the financial condition of Guarantor, nor, except as heretofore disclosed
11
in writing to Lender, has Guarantor incurred any material liability, direct or indirect, fixed or contingent; (h) after giving effect to this Guaranty, Guarantor is solvent, is not engaged or about to engage in business or a transaction for which the property of Guarantor is an unreasonably small capital, and does not intend to incur or believe that it will incur debts that will be beyond its ability to pay as such debts mature; (i) Lender have no duty at any time to investigate or inform Guarantor of the financial or business condition or affairs of Borrower or any change therein, and Guarantor will keep fully apprised of Borrower’s financial and business condition; (j) Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that Guarantor may be required to pay and perform the Guaranteed Obligations in full without assistance or support from Borrower or any other Person; and (k) Guarantor has read and fully understands the provisions contained in the Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage, the Environmental Agreement, and the other Loan Documents. Guarantor’s representations, warranties and covenants are a material inducement to Lender to enter into the other Loan Documents and shall survive the execution hereof and any bankruptcy, foreclosure, transfer of security or other event affecting Borrower, Guarantor, any other party, or any security for all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations.
Guarantor further represents, warrants and covenants that if any Swap Contract shall at any time be in effect, (x) Guarantor has received and examined copies of each such Swap Contract, the observance and performance of which by Borrower is hereby guaranteed; (y) Guarantor will benefit from Lender’s entering into each such Swap Contract and any transaction thereunder with Borrower, and Guarantor has determined that the execution and delivery by Guarantor of this Guaranty are necessary and convenient to the conduct, promotion and attainment of the business of Guarantor; and (z) Lender have no duty to determine whether any Swap Contract, or any other transaction relating to or arising under any Swap Contract, will be or has been entered into by Borrower for purposes of hedging interest rate, currency exchange rate, or other risks arising in its businesses or affairs and not for purposes of speculation or is otherwise inappropriate for Borrower. Guarantor’s representations, warranties and covenants are a material inducement to Lender to enter into the other Loan Documents and any Swap Contract shall survive the execution hereof and any bankruptcy, foreclosure, transfer of security or other event affecting Borrower, Guarantor, any other party, or any security for all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations.
15. Notices. All notices, requests, consents, demands and other communications required or which any party desires to give hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be in writing and, unless otherwise specifically provided in such other Loan Document, shall be deemed sufficiently given or furnished if delivered by personal delivery, by nationally recognized overnight courier service, or by registered or certified United States mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the party to whom directed at the addresses specified in this Guaranty (unless changed by similar notice in writing given by the particular party whose address is to be changed) or by telegram, telex, or facsimile. Any such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been given either at the time of personal delivery or, in the case of courier or mail, as of the date of first attempted delivery at the address and in the manner provided herein, or, in the case of telegram, telex or facsimile, upon receipt; provided that, service of a notice required by any applicable statute shall be considered complete when the requirements of that statute are met. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no notice of change of address shall be effective except upon actual receipt. This Section shall not be construed in any way to affect or impair any waiver of notice or demand provided in this Guaranty or in any Loan
12
Document or to require giving of notice or demand to or upon any Person in any situation or for any reason.
16. Cumulative Rights. The exercise by Lender of any right or remedy hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or at law or in equity, shall not preclude the concurrent or subsequent exercise of any other right or remedy. Lender shall have all rights, remedies and recourses afforded to Lender by reason of this Guaranty or any other Loan Document or by law or equity or otherwise, and the same (a) shall be cumulative and concurrent, (b) may be pursued separately, successively or concurrently against Guarantor or others obligated for the Guaranteed Obligations, or any part thereof, or against any one or more of them, or against any security or otherwise, at the sole and absolute discretion of Lender, (c) may be exercised as often as occasion therefor shall arise, it being agreed by Guarantor that the exercise of, discontinuance of the exercise of or failure to exercise any of such rights, remedies, or recourses shall in no event be construed as a waiver or release thereof or of any other right, remedy, or recourse, and (d) are intended to be, and shall be, nonexclusive. No waiver of any default on the part of Guarantor or of any breach of any of the provisions of this Guaranty or of any other document shall be considered a waiver of any other or subsequent default or breach, and no delay or omission in exercising or enforcing the rights and powers granted herein or in any other document shall be construed as a waiver of such rights and powers, and no exercise or enforcement of any rights or powers hereunder or under any other document shall be held to exhaust such rights and powers, and every such right and power may be exercised from time to time. The granting of any consent, approval or waiver by Lender shall be limited to the specific instance and purpose therefor and shall not constitute consent or approval in any other instance or for any other purpose. No notice to or demand on Guarantor in any case shall of itself entitle Guarantor to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. No provision of this Guaranty or any right, remedy or recourse of Lender with respect hereto, or any default or breach, can be waived, nor can this Guaranty or Guarantor be released or discharged in any way or to any extent, except specifically in each case by a writing intended for that purpose (and which refers specifically to this Guaranty) executed, and delivered to Guarantor, by Lender.
17. Term of Guaranty. This Guaranty shall continue in effect until all the Guaranteed Obligations are fully and finally paid, performed and discharged, except that, and notwithstanding any return of this Guaranty to Guarantor, this Guaranty shall continue in effect (i) with respect to any of the Guaranteed Obligations that survive the full and final payment of the indebtedness evidenced by the Note, (ii) with respect to all obligations and liabilities of Guarantor under Section 11 and (iii) as provided in Section 4(b).
18. Financial Statements. As used in this Section, “Financial Statements” means (i) for each reporting party other than an individual, a balance sheet, income statement, statements of cash flow and amount and sources of contingent liabilities, a reconciliation of changes in equity and liquidity verification, and, unless Lender otherwise consents, consolidated and consolidating statements if the reporting party is a holding company or a parent of a subsidiary entity; and (ii) for each reporting party who is an individual, a balance sheet, statements of amount and sources of contingent liabilities, sources and uses of cash and liquidity verification, and, unless Lender otherwise consents, Financial Statements for each entity owned or jointly owned by the reporting party. Each party for whom Financial Statements are required
13
is a “reporting party” and a specified period to which the required Financial Statements relate is a “reporting period”. Guarantor shall provide or cause to be provided to Lender the following:
|
|
|
(a) Financial Statements of Acadia Realty Trust, a Maryland business trust and the parent company of Guarantor (“Parent”), and copies of filed federal and state income tax returns of Guarantor and its Parent as and when required under the Loan Agreement; |
|
|
|
(b) As soon as available and in any event within thirty (30) days of the end of each fiscal quarter of Parent a certificate of the principal financial or accounting officer of Guarantor or Parent in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A; |
|
|
|
(c) As soon as available and in any event within thirty (30) days of the end of each fiscal quarter of Parent the Quarterly Reporting Supplement (as hereinafter defined) of Parent and Guarantor, prepared and presented in a manner consistent with the current practices of Parent and Guarantor; and |
|
|
|
(d) From time to time promptly after Lender’s request, such additional information, reports and statements regarding the business operations and financial condition of each reporting party as Lender may reasonably request. |
All Financial Statements shall be in form and detail satisfactory to Lender and shall contain or be attached to the signed and dated written certification of the reporting party in form satisfactory to Lender to certify that the Financial Statements are furnished to Lender in connection with the extension of credit by Lender and constitute a true and correct statement of the reporting party’s financial position. All certifications and signatures on behalf of corporations, partnerships or other entities shall be by a representative of the entity satisfactory to Lender. All Financial Statements for a reporting party who is an individual shall be on Lender’s then-current personal financial statement form or in another form satisfactory to Lender. All fiscal year-end Financial Statements shall be audited or certified, as required by Lender, without any qualification or exception not acceptable to Lender, by independent certified public accountants acceptable to Lender, and shall contain all reports and disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles for a fair presentation. All fiscal year-end Financial Statements of the following reporting parties shall be compiled or reviewed by independent certified public accountants acceptable to Lender.
Guarantor represents and warrants to Lender that the financial information in the current and future Quarterly Reporting Supplements shall accurately reflect the financial condition of Guarantor. All assets shown on the Financial Statements provided by Guarantor and/or its Parent, unless clearly designated to the contrary shall, be conclusively deemed to be free and clear of any exemption or any claim of exemption of Guarantor and/or its Parent at the date of the Financial Statements and at all times thereafter. Acceptance of any Financial Statement by Lender, whether or not in the form prescribed herein, shall be relied upon by Lender in the administration, enforcement, and extension of the Guaranteed Obligations.
19. Notifications. Guarantor shall notify Lender:
14
|
|
|
(i) Notice of Litigation. Promptly after the commencement and knowledge thereof, notice of all material actions, suits and proceedings before any court or arbitrator or any governmental authorities, affecting Guarantor or Parent; |

(b) Conduct of Business and Maintenance of Existence. Guarantor will continue (i) to be a majority owned subsidiary of Parent through whom Parent conducts substantially all of its activities, (ii) engage in business of the same general type as now conducted by Guarantor on the date hereof, and preserve, renew and keep in full force and effect its legal existence and (iii) to comply with all contractual obligations and Laws, except to the extent that failure to comply therewith would not in the aggregate constitute a Material Change.
(c) Compliance with Laws. Guarantor shall comply, and shall cause each of its subsidiaries, if any, to comply, with all Laws, except to the extent that failure to comply therewith would not in the aggregate constitutes a Material Change.
20. Disclosure of Information. In accordance with the Loan Agreement Lender may sell or offer to sell the Loan or interests in the Loan to one or more assignees or participants and may disclose to any such assignee or participant or prospective assignee or participant, to Lender’s affiliates, including without limitation Banc of America Securities LLC, to any regulatory body having jurisdiction over Lender and to any other parties as necessary or appropriate in Lender’s reasonable judgment, any information Lender now has or hereafter obtain pertaining to the Guaranteed Obligations, this Guaranty, or Guarantor, including, without limitation, information regarding any security for the Guaranteed Obligations or for this Guaranty, credit or other information on Guarantor, Borrower, and/or any other party liable, directly or indirectly, for any part of the Guaranteed Obligations.
21. Right of Set-Off. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, however defined, in the payment or performance when due of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, Lender is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, without notice to any Person (any such notice being expressly waived by Guarantor to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law), to set off and apply any and all deposits, funds, or assets at any time held and other indebtedness at any time
15
owing by any Lender to or for the credit or the account of Guarantor against any and all of the obligations of Guarantor now or hereafter existing under this Guaranty, whether or not Lender shall have made any demand under this Guaranty or exercised any other right or remedy hereunder. Lender will promptly notify Guarantor after any such set-off and application made by Lender, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of Lender under this Section 21 are in addition to the other rights and remedies (including other rights of set-off) that Lender may have and every right of setoff and lien shall continue in full force and effect until such right of setoff or lien is specifically waived or released by an instrument in writing executed by Lender.
22. Subrogation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Guarantor shall not have any right of subrogation in or under any of the Loan Documents or to participate in any way therein, or in any right, title or interest in and to any security or right of recourse for the Indebtedness or any right to reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, indemnification or any similar rights, until the Indebtedness has been fully and finally paid. This waiver is given to induce Lender to make the Loan to Borrower.
23. Further Assurances. Guarantor at Guarantor’s expense will promptly execute and deliver to Lender upon Lender’s request all such other and further documents, agreements, and instruments in compliance with or accomplishment of the agreements of Guarantor under this Guaranty.

17
monitoring, collection or future transaction concerning the Loan, including any modification, extension or renewal of the Loan. Also in connection with any such monitoring, collection or future transaction, Lender is hereby authorized to check credit references, verify employment and obtain a third party credit report for the spouse of any married person obligated on this Guaranty, if such person lives in a community property state.
