For the purpose of implementing the joint borrower provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, each Credit Party hereby irrevocably appoints the Lead Borrowers as its agents and attorneys-in-fact for the purpose of requesting and obtaining Borrowings hereunder, including delivery of any Borrowing Request or Interest Election Request, and the Borrower shall be obligated to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders on account of Borrowings so made as if made directly by the Lenders to such Person. Further, each Credit Party hereby irrevocably appoints the Lead Borrowers as its agents and attorneys-in-fact for all other purposes under the Loan Documents, including the giving and receiving of notices and other communications and the giving of consents or approvals pursuant to the terms hereof. Any request by the Borrower for a Borrowing shall in all events be deemed and construed as a request for such Borrowing by all Persons comprising Borrower hereunder.
|
|
(e)
|
Each Borrower recognizes that credit available to it under the Loan is in excess of and on better terms than it otherwise could obtain on and for its own account and that one of the reasons therefor is its joining in the credit facility contemplated herein with all other Borrowers. Consequently, each Borrower, jointly and severally, hereby assumes and agrees fully, faithfully, and punctually to discharge all Indebtedness and other Obligations of all of the other Persons comprising the Borrower.
|
|
(f)
|
The proceeds of each loan and advance provided under the Loan which is requested by the Lead Borrowers shall be advanced as and when otherwise provided herein or as otherwise indicated by the Lead Borrowers.

|
|
(g)
|
It is understood and agreed that the handling of this credit facility on a joint borrowing basis as set forth in this Agreement is solely as an accommodation to the Credit Parties and at their request. Accordingly, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders are entitled to rely, and shall be exonerated from any liability for relying upon, any Borrowing Request, Interest Election Request, or any other request or communication made by a purported officer of any Borrower without the need for any consent or other authorization of any other Borrower and upon any information or certificate provided on behalf of any Borrower by a purported officer of such Borrower, and any such request or other action shall be fully binding on each Borrower as if made by it.

ARTICLE II
The Credits
The Credits
SECTION 2.01 Commitments.
Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Lender agrees to make revolving loans (each, a "Loan") to the Borrower from time to time during the Availability Period in an aggregate principal amount that will not result in (i) such Lender's Credit Exposure exceeding such Lender's Commitment, or (ii) the aggregate Credit Exposure of the Lenders exceeding the Maximum Loan Available Amount; provided however, that no Lender shall be obligated to make a Loan in excess of such Lender's Applicable Percentage of the difference between (A) the Maximum Loan Available Amount and (B) the Credit Exposure. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may borrow, prepay and reborrow Loans.
SECTION 2.02 Loans and Borrowings.
|
(a)
|
Each Loan shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Loans made by the Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Commitments. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan required to be made by it shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder; provided that the Commitments of the Lenders are several and no Lender shall be responsible for any other Lender's failure to make Loans as required.
|
|
(b)
|
Subject to Section 2.13, each Borrowing shall be comprised entirely of ABR Loans or Eurodollar Loans as the Borrower may request in accordance herewith. Each Lender at its option may make any Eurodollar Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
|
|
(c)
|
At the commencement of each Interest Period for any Eurodollar Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $100,000 and not less than $1,000,000. At the time that each ABR Borrowing is made, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $100,000 and not less than $1,000,000, provided that an ABR Borrowing may be in an aggregate amount that is equal to the entire unused balance of the total Commitments. Borrowings of more than one Type may be outstanding at the same time; provided that there shall not at any time be more than a total of five (5) Eurodollar Borrowings outstanding.
|
|
(d)
|
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Borrower shall not be entitled to request, or to elect to convert or continue, any Borrowing if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would end after the Maturity Date.
|
SECTION 2.03 Requests for Borrowings.
To request a Borrowing, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request by telephone (a) in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 12:00 noon, Boston, Massachusetts time, three Business Days before the date of the proposed Borrowing or (b) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 12:00 noon, Boston, Massachusetts time, one Business Day before the date of the proposed Borrowing. Each such telephonic Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to the Administrative Agent of a written Borrowing Request in the form of Exhibit E attached hereto and hereby made a part hereof and signed by the Borrower. Each such telephonic and written Borrowing Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:
|
(i)
|
the aggregate amount of the requested Borrowing;
|
|
(ii)
|
the date of such Borrowing, which shall be a Business Day;
|
|
(iii)
|
whether such Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurodollar Borrowing;
|
|
(iv)
|
in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term "Interest Period"; and
|
|
(v)
|
the location and number of the Borrower's account to which funds are to be disbursed, which shall comply with the requirements of Section 2.06.
|
If no election as to the Type of Borrowing is specified in the Borrowing Request, then the requested Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing. If no Interest Period is specified with respect to any requested Eurodollar Borrowing, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month's duration, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing. Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing Request in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of the amount of such Lender's Loan to be made as part of the requested Borrowing.
SECTION 2.04 RESERVED.
SECTION 2.05 RESERVED.
SECTION 2.06 Funding of Borrowings.
|
(a)
|
Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 12:00 noon, Boston, Massachusetts time, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of the Borrower maintained with the Administrative Agent in Boston, Massachusetts, or wire transferred to such other account or in such manner as may be designated by the Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request. The failure of any Lender to advance the proceeds of its Applicable Percentage of any Borrowing required to be advanced hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation to advance the proceeds of its Applicable Percentage of any Borrowing required to be advanced hereunder.
|
|
(b)
|
Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender's share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to the corresponding Loan made to the Borrower. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender's Loan included in such Borrowing. If Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to Borrower the amount of such interest paid by Borrower for such period. Any payment by Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.
|
|
(c)
|
Each Lender may: (a) designate its principal office or a branch, subsidiary or Affiliate of such Lender as its lending office (and the office to whose accounts payments are to be credited) for any Eurodollar Loan; (b) designate its principal office or a branch, subsidiary or Affiliate as its lending office (and the office to whose accounts payments are to be credited) for any ABR Loan and (c) change its lending office from time to time by notice to Administrative Agent and Borrower. In such event, such Lender shall continue to hold the Note, if any, evidencing its loans for the benefit and account of such branch, subsidiary or Affiliate. Each Lender shall be entitled to fund all or any portion of its Commitment in any manner it deems appropriate, consistent with the provisions of this Section 2.06, but for the purposes of this Credit Agreement such Lender shall, regardless of such Lender's actual means of funding, be deemed to have funded its Commitment in accordance with the interest option selected from time to time by the Borrower for such Borrowing period.
|
SECTION 2.07 Interest Elections.
|
(a)
|
Each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, the Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section. The Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing.
|
|
(b)
|
To make an election pursuant to this Section, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election by telephone by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if the Borrower were requesting a Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to the Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request in the form of a Borrowing Request (with proper election made for an interest rate election only) and signed by the Borrower.
|
|
(c)
|
Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:
|
|
(i)
|
the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing);
|
|
(ii)
|
the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day;
|
|
(iii)
|
whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurodollar Borrowing; and
|
|
(iv)
|
if the resulting Borrowing is a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term "Interest Period".
|
If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month's duration.
|
(d)
|
Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender's portion of each resulting Borrowing.
|
|
(e)
|
If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurodollar Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so notifies the Borrower, then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, each Eurodollar Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto.
|
SECTION 2.08 Termination, Reduction and Increase of Commitments.
|
(a)
|
Unless previously terminated by the Administrative Agent or Borrower in accordance with this Agreement, the Commitments shall terminate on the Maturity Date.
|
|
(b)
|
The Borrower may only reduce the Commitments with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and all of the Lenders in the following circumstances: the Borrower may from time to time reduce the Commitments, provided that each reduction in the Commitments shall be in an amount that is at least $5,000,000 and an integral multiple of $5,000,000, and the Commitments may not be reduced to less than $15,000,000 unless the Commitments are reduced to zero and terminated. The Borrower shall not reduce the Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Loans in accordance with Section 2.10, the total Credit Exposure would exceed the Maximum Loan Available Amount. After any reduction in the Commitments, the Borrower's option to increase the Commitments provided in Section 2.08(d) shall terminate.
|
|
(c)
|
The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to reduce the Commitments under Section 2.08(b) at least three (3) Business Days prior to the effective date of such reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable. Any reduction of the Commitments shall be permanent. Each reduction in the Commitments shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments. A reduction in the outstanding principal balance shall not constitute a reduction in the Commitments without the notice required above being delivered to Administrative Agent as set forth above.
|
|
(d)
|
Provided no Default or Event of Default shall then be in existence, the Borrower shall have the right, on one or more occasions, to elect to increase the Total Commitments; provided, however, that (i) the amount of each such increase shall not be less than Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000) or in increments of Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000) in excess thereof, and (ii) the aggregate amount of all such increases shall not cause the Total Commitments to exceed One Hundred Million Dollars ($100,000,000). Such right may be exercised by the Borrower by written notice to the Administrative Agent, which election shall designate the requested increase in the Total Commitments. At the time of sending such notice, the Borrower (in consultation with the Administrative Agent) shall specify the time period within which each Lender is requested to respond (which shall in no event be less than ten (10) Business Days from the date of delivery of such notice to the Lenders), and each Lender shall endeavor to respond as promptly as possible within such time period. Each Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent within such time period whether or not it agrees to increase its Commitment (which decision shall be in its sole discretion) and, if so, whether by an amount equal to, greater than, or less than its Applicable Percentage of such requested increase. Any Lender not responding within such time period shall be deemed to have declined to increase its Commitment. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and each Lender of the Lenders' responses to each request made hereunder. To achieve the full amount of a requested increase and subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), the Borrower may also invite additional lenders approved by the Administrative Agent (provided that no approval of the Administrative Agent shall be required if such new lender is an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund) to become Lenders pursuant to a joinder agreement (each a "Lender Joinder Agreement") in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and its counsel. If the Total Commitment is increased in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall determine the effective date (the "Increase Effective Date") and the final allocation of each Lender's increased Commitments. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the final allocation of such increase (with such increase being pro rata among existing Lenders choosing to increase their Commitments) and the Increase Effective Date. As a condition precedent to such increase, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of the Borrower dated as of the Increase Effective Date signed by an Authorized Officer of the Borrower (i) certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by the Borrower approving or consenting to such increase, and (ii) certifying that, before and after giving effect to such increase, (A) the representations and warranties contained in Article 3 and the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the Increase Effective Date, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they are true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date, and except that for purposes of this Section 2.08(d), the representations and warranties contained in Section 3.04 shall be deemed to refer to the most recent statements furnished to the Administrative Agent, and (B) no Default or Event of Default exists. Existing Lenders may, as necessary, receive a prepayment of amounts of the Loan outstanding on the Increase Effective Date to the extent necessary to keep the outstanding Loan ratable with any revised Applicable Percentages arising from any non-ratable increase in the Commitments under this Section, which prepayment shall be accomplished by the pro rata funding required of the Lender(s) issuing new or increased Commitments.
|
SECTION 2.09 Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt.
|
(a)
|
The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Loan on the Maturity Date. At the request of each Lender, the Loans made by such Lender shall be evidenced by a Note payable to such Lender in the amount of such Lender's Commitment. Without limitation to the foregoing, if any Borrowing remains outstanding for more than one hundred eighty (180) days, the Borrower will, at the request of the Administrative Agent comply with the provisions of Section 5.18.
|
|
(b)
|

|
|
(d)
|
The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (c) or (c) of this Section shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
|
SECTION 2.10 Prepayment of Loans.
|
(a)
|
The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay, without penalty, any Borrowing in whole or in part, subject to prior notice in accordance with paragraph (b) of this Section, and subject to Section 2.15, if applicable.

|
(b)

The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., Boston, Massachusetts time, three (3) Business Days before the date of prepayment, or (ii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., Boston, Massachusetts time, one Business Day before the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid. Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to a Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $100,000 and not less than $500,000. Each prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.12.
|
|

|
In connection with the prepayment of any Loan prior to the expiration of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the Borrower shall also pay any applicable expenses pursuant to Section 2.15.
|
|
(d)
|
Amounts to be applied to the prepayment of Loans pursuant to any of the preceding subsections of this Section shall be applied, first, to reduce outstanding ABR Loans and next, to the extent of any remaining balance, to reduce outstanding Eurodollar Loans. Each such prepayment shall be applied to prepay ratably the Loans of the Lender.
|
|
(e)
|
If at any time the total Credit Exposure of the Lenders exceeds the then effective Maximum Loan Available Amount, the Borrower shall prepay the Loans in an amount equal to such excess within one (1) Business Day after such occurrence, with any such payment being applied to the outstanding Loans.
|
SECTION 2.11 Fees.
|
(a)
|
The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender an unused fee (the "Unused Fee"), which shall accrue during the period from and including the date of this Agreement to, but excluding, the Termination Date, (a) at 0.30% per annum on the daily unused amount of the Commitment of such Lender if Usage is less than 50% of such Lender's Commitment, and (b) at 0.25% per annum on the daily unused amount of the Commitment of such Lender if Usage is greater than or equal to 50% of such Lender's Commitment.

(b)
|
The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon in any fee letter executed by the Borrower in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby.

Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and, in the case of Loans, upon termination of the Commitments; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than a prepayment of an ABR Loan prior to the end of the Availability Period), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment, and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any Eurodollar Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion.
|
|
(e)
|
All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and twelve (12) 30-day months, and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). The applicable Alternate Base Rate, Adjusted LIBO Rate or LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
|
SECTION 2.13 Alternate Rate of Interest.
If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Borrowing:
|
(a)
|
the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the LIBO Rate, as applicable, for such Interest Period; or
|
|
(b)
|
the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that (i) the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the LIBO Rate, as applicable, for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining their Loans (or its Loan) included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period and (ii) such fact is generally applicable to its loans of this type to similar borrowers, as evidenced by a certification from such Lenders;
|
then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders by telephone or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Eurodollar Borrowing shall be ineffective, and (ii) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing; provided that if the circumstances giving rise to such notice affect only one Type of Borrowings, then the other Type of Borrowings shall be permitted.
SECTION 2.14 Increased Costs.
|
(a)
|
If any Change in Law shall:
|
|
(i)
|
impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate); or
|
|
(ii)
|
subject any Lender to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Credit Agreement or any Eurodollar Loan made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender in respect thereof (except for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes covered by Section 2.16 and the imposition of, or any change in the rate of, any Excluded Tax payable by such Lender); or
|
|
(iii)
|
impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition (other than one relating to Excluded Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Loans made by such Lender or participation therein;
|
and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Eurodollar Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.
|
(b)
|
If any Lender determines that any Change in Law regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender's capital or on the capital of such Lender's holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by such Lender, to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender's holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender's policies and the policies of such Lender's holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender's holding company for any such reduction suffered.
|
|
(c)
|
A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.
|
|
(d)
|
Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender's right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 270 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender's intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 270-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.
|
SECTION 2.15 Break Funding Payments.
In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.10(b)), or (d) the assignment of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.18, then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. In the case of a Eurodollar Loan, such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Adjusted LIBO Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the Eurodollar market. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.
SECTION 2.16 Taxes.
|
(a)
|
Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if the Borrower shall be required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Administrative Agent or Lender (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.
|
|
(b)
|
In addition, the Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.
|
|
(c)
|
|
(i)
|
The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, within 10 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender, or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
|
|
(ii)
|
Each Lender shall, and does hereby, indemnify the Borrower and Administrative Agent, and shall make payment in respect thereof within ten (10) days after demand therefor, against (x) any and all Taxes and any and all related losses, claims, liabilities, penalties, interest and expenses (including the reasonable fees, charges and out-of-pocket disbursements of any counsel for the Borrower or Administrative Agent) attributable to such Lender, including but not limited to any and all Taxes and related amounts incurred by or asserted against Borrower or Administrative Agent by any Governmental Authority as a result of the failure by such Lender, to deliver, or as a result of the inaccuracy, inadequacy or deficiency of, any documentation required to be delivered by such Lender, to the Borrower or the Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection (e), and (y) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Borrower or Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefore or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender, under this Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to Administrative Agent under this clause (ii). The agreements in this clause (ii) shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations.
|
|
(d)
|
As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.
|
|
(e)
|
Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which the Borrower is located, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate. If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender's obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (e), "FATCA" shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.
|
SECTION 2.17 Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs.
|
(a)
|
The Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees, or of amounts payable under Section 2.14, 2.15 or 2.16, or otherwise) prior to 1:00 p.m., Boston, Massachusetts time, on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set-off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its main offices in Cleveland, Ohio, except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and 9.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. If the Administrative Agent receives a payment for the account of a Lender prior to 1:00 p.m., Boston, Massachusetts time, such payment must be delivered to the Lender on the same day and if it is not so delivered due to the fault of the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall pay to the Lender entitled to the payment interest thereon for each day after payment should have been received by the Lender pursuant hereto until the Lender receives payment, at the Federal Funds Effective Rate. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments hereunder shall be made in Dollars.
|
|
(b)
|
If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, towards payment of principal then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal then due to such parties.
|
|
(c)
|
If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.
|
|
(d)
|
Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Effective Rate.
|
|
(e)
|
If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to 2.06(b) or 2.17(d), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender's obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.
|
SECTION 2.18 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.
|
(a)
|
Each Lender will notify the Borrower of any event occurring after the date of this Agreement which will entitle such Person to compensation pursuant to Sections 2.14 and 2.16 as promptly as practicable after it obtains knowledge thereof and determines to request such compensation, provided that such Person shall not be liable for the failure to provide such notice. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any such Person or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.16, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to avoid or minimize the amounts payable, including, without limitation, the designation of a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or the assignment of its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.14 or 2.16, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable and documented costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.
|
|
(b)
|
If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.16, or if any Lender defaults in its obligation to fund Loans hereunder, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts), and (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.14 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.16, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.
|
SECTION 2.19 Extension.
|
(a)
|
So long as no Event of Default or Default shall be in existence on the date on which notice is given in accordance with the following clause (i) and on the then current Stated Maturity Date, Borrower may extend the Stated Maturity Date to October 5, 2019, upon satisfaction of the following: (i) delivery of a written request to Administrative Agent at least sixty (60) days, but no more than one hundred twenty (120) days, prior to the Maturity Date then in effect; (ii) payment to Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders of the extension fee set forth in SECTION 2.11(d), which fee shall be payable on or before the then applicable Maturity Date; and (iii) payment by Borrower of all fees and expenses to Administrative Agent and the Lenders to the extent then due. Such extension shall be evidenced by delivery of written confirmation of the same by Administrative Agent to Borrower, but Administrative Agent's failure to timely deliver the notice shall not affect Borrower's right to extend so long as the conditions contained herein are satisfied.
|
|
(b)
|
If the Maturity Date is extended, all of the other terms and conditions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including interest payment dates) shall remain in full force and effect and unmodified, except as expressly provided for herein. The extension of the Stated Maturity Date is subject to the satisfaction of each of the following additional conditions:
|
|
(i)
|
The representations and warranties of each Credit Party set forth in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to which such Credit Party is a signatory shall be true and correct in all material respects on the date that the extension request is given to the Administrative Agent and on the first day of the extension (except to the extent such representations and warranties relate to a specified date);
|
|
(ii)
|
no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the date on which the Borrower gives the Administrative Agent the extension request or on the first day of the extension;
|
|
(iii)
|
the Borrower shall be in compliance with all of the financial covenants set forth in Section 5.02 hereof both on the date on which the extension request is given to the Administrative Agent and on the first day of the extension;
|
|
(iv)
|
the Borrower shall have paid to the Administrative Agent all amounts then due and payable to any of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents, including the extension fee described in Section 2.11(d) hereof;
|
|
(v)
|
the Borrower shall pay for any and all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including, reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements, incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with or arising out of the extension of the Maturity Date;
|
|
(vi)
|
the Borrower shall execute and deliver to Administrative Agent such other documents, financial statements, instruments, certificates, opinions of counsel, reports, or amendments to the Loan Documents as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request regarding the Credit Parties as shall be necessary to effect such extension; and
|
|
(vii)
|
a written agreement evidencing the extension is signed by the Administrative Agent, the Credit Parties and any other Person to be charged with compliance therewith, which agreement such parties agree to execute if the extension conditions set forth above have been satisfied.
|
SECTION 2.20 Defaulting Lenders.
|
(a)
|
Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Credit Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as that Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable Law:
|
|
(i)
|
Waivers and Amendments. That Defaulting Lender's right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Credit Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in Section 9.02.
|
|
(ii)
|
Reallocation of Payments. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by Administrative Agent for the account of a Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to ARTICLE VII or otherwise, and including any amounts made available to Administrative Agent by that Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 9.08), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to Administrative Agent hereunder; second, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Credit Agreement, as determined by Administrative Agent; third, if so determined by Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released in order to satisfy obligations of such Defaulting Lender to fund Loans under this Credit Agreement; fourth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the non-Defaulting Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender's breach of its obligations under this Credit Agreement; fifth, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender's breach of its obligations under this Credit Agreement; and sixth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if: (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share; and (y) such Loans were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of all non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of such Defaulting Lender. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.
|
|
(iii)
|
Certain Fees. A Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to receive any Unused Fee pursuant to Section 2.11 for any period during which such Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to such Defaulting Lender).
|
|
(b)
|
Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrower and Administrative Agent agree in writing in their reasonable discretion that a Defaulting Lender has taken such action that it should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any cash collateral), such Defaulting Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Applicable Percentages, whereupon such Defaulting Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while such Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no cessation in status as Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising during the period that such Lender was a Defaulting Lender.
|
SECTION 2.21 Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of EEA Financial Institutions.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any EEA Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of an EEA Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

|
(d)
|
Except as may be required under the terms of any Approved Lease, all proceeds of insurance with respect to any Mortgaged Properties shall be paid to Administrative Agent and, at Administrative Agent's option, be applied to Borrower's Obligations or released, in whole or in part, to pay for the actual cost of repair, restoration, rebuilding or replacement (collectively, "Cost To Repair"). If the Cost To Repair does not exceed twenty percent (20%) of the Pool Value of the subject Mortgaged Property, provided no Event of Default is then in existence, Administrative Agent shall release so much of the insurance proceeds as may be required to pay for the actual Cost to Repair in accordance with and subject to the provisions of Section 5.06(e) below.
|
|
(e)
|
If Administrative Agent elects or is required to release insurance proceeds with respect to Mortgaged Properties, Administrative Agent may impose (subject to the requirements of any Approved Lease), reasonable conditions on such release which shall include, but not be limited to, the following:
|
|
(i)
|
Prior written approval by Administrative Agent, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed of plans, specifications, cost estimates, contracts and bonds for the restoration or repair of the loss or damage;
|
|
(ii)
|
Waivers of lien, architect's certificates, contractor's sworn statements and other evidence of costs, payments and completion as Administrative Agent may reasonably require;
|
|
(iii)
|
If the Cost To Repair does not exceed $500,000.00, the funds to pay therefor shall be released to Borrower. Otherwise, funds shall be released upon final completion of the Repair Work, unless Borrower requests earlier funding, in which event partial monthly disbursements equal to 90% of the value of the work completed shall be made prior to final completion of the repair, restoration or replacement and the balance of the disbursements shall be made upon full completion and the receipt by Administrative Agent of satisfactory evidence of payment and release of all liens;
|
|
(iv)
|
Determination by Administrative Agent that the undisbursed balance of such proceeds on deposit with Administrative Agent, together with additional funds deposited for the purpose, shall be at least sufficient to pay for the remaining Cost To Repair, free and clear of all liens and claims for lien;
|
|
(v)
|
All work to comply with the standards, quality of construction and Legal Requirements applicable to the original construction of the Mortgaged Property;
|
|
(vi)
|
in Administrative Agent's good faith judgment the Repair Work is likely to be completed at least three (3) months prior to the Maturity Date; and
|
|
(vii)
|
each tenant of the Mortgaged Property which might otherwise have a right to terminate its lease on account of such casualty shall have waived its right to so terminate conditioned only upon the repair work being completed within a reasonable period of time acceptable to Administrative Agent or such period as is expressly provided in the applicable leases, whichever is longer, so long as the period does not exceed the period for which rent loss insurance is available.
|
|
(f)
|
Subject to the requirements of any Approved Lease, if there is any condemnation for public use of a Mortgaged Property or of any Collateral, the awards on account thereof shall be paid to Administrative Agent and shall be applied to Borrower's Obligations, or at Administrative Agent's discretion, released to Borrower. If, in the case of a partial taking or a temporary taking, in the sole judgment of Administrative Agent the effect of such taking is such that there has not been a material and adverse impairment of the viability of the Mortgaged Property or the value of the Collateral, so long as no Default exists Administrative Agent shall release awards on account of such taking to Borrower if such awards are sufficient (or amounts sufficient are otherwise made available) to repair or restore the Administrative Property to a condition reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent subject to the requirements of Section 5.06(e).
|
SECTION 5.07 Books and Records; Inspection Rights.
|
(a)
|
The Borrower will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, keep proper books of record and account in which full, true and correct entries are made of all dealings and transactions in relation to its business and activities.
|
|
(b)
|
The Borrower will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, permit any representatives designated by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, upon reasonable prior notice and subject to rights of tenants, to visit and inspect its properties, to examine and make extracts from its books and records, and to discuss its affairs, finances and condition with its officers and independent accountants, all at such reasonable times and as often as reasonably requested.
|
SECTION 5.08 Compliance with Laws, Charter Documents, etc.
Each Credit Party will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, comply with (i) all laws, rules, regulations and orders of any Governmental Authority applicable to it or its property, (ii) the provisions of its corporate charter, partnership agreement, limited liability company agreement or declaration of trust, as the case may be, and other charter documents and bylaws, (iii) all agreements and instruments to which it is a party or by which it or any of its properties may be bound, (iv) all applicable decrees, orders, and judgments, and (v) all licenses and permits required by applicable laws and regulations for the conduct of its business or the ownership, use or operation of its properties, except, in each case, where the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.
SECTION 5.09 Use of Proceeds.
The proceeds of the Loans will be used to finance or refinance, on a bridge basis, the acquisition of Real Property by the Borrower and its Subsidiaries. No part of the proceeds of any Loan will be used, whether directly or indirectly, for financing, funding or completing the hostile acquisition of publicly traded Persons or for any purpose that entails a violation of any of the Regulations of the Board, including Regulations U and X.
SECTION 5.10 Fiscal Year.
Borrower shall maintain as its fiscal year the twelve (12) month period ending on December 31 of each year.
SECTION 5.11 Environmental Matters.
|
(a)
|
Borrower shall comply and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries and each Real Property owned or leased by such parties to comply in all material respects with all applicable Environmental Laws currently or hereafter in effect, except to the extent noncompliance could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
|
|
(b)
|
If the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders at any time have a reasonable basis to believe that there may be a material violation of any Environmental Law related to any Real Property owned or leased by Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or Real Property adjacent to such Real Property, which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, then Borrower agrees, upon request from the Administrative Agent (which request may be delivered at the option of Administrative Agent or at the direction of Required Lenders), to provide the Administrative Agent, at the Borrower's expense, with such reports, certificates, engineering studies or other written material or data as the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders may reasonably require so as to reasonably satisfy the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders that any Credit Party or Real Property owned or leased by them is in material compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws.
|
|
(c)
|
Borrower shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, take such Remedial Action or other action as required by Environmental Law or any Governmental Authority.
|
|
(d)
|
If the Borrower or any Credit Party fails to timely take, or to diligently and expeditiously proceed to complete in a timely fashion, any action described in this Section, the Administrative Agent may, after notice to the Borrower, with the consent of the Required Lenders, make advances or payments toward the performance or satisfaction of the same, but shall in no event be under any obligation to do so. All sums so advanced or paid by the Administrative Agent (including reasonable counsel and consultant and investigation and laboratory fees and expenses, and fines or other penalty payments) and all sums advanced or paid in connection with any judicial or administrative investigation or proceeding relating thereto, will become due and payable from the Borrower ten (10) Business Days after demand, and shall bear interest at the rate for past due interest provided in Section 2.12(c) from the date any such sums are so advanced or paid by the Administrative Agent until the date any such sums are repaid by the Borrower. Promptly upon request, the Borrower (or the subject Credit Party) will execute and deliver such instruments as the Administrative Agent may deem reasonably necessary to permit the Administrative Agent to take any such action, and as the Administrative Agent may require to secure all sums so advanced or paid by the Administrative Agent. If a Lien is filed against any Pool Property by any Governmental Authority resulting from the need to expend or the actual expending of monies arising from an action or omission, whether intentional or unintentional, of the Borrower or for which the Borrower is responsible, resulting in the Releasing of any Hazardous Material into the waters or onto land located within or without the State where the Pool Property is located, then the Borrower will, within thirty (30) days from the date that the Borrower is first given notice that such Lien has been placed against the Pool Property (or within such shorter period of time as may be specified by the Administrative Agent if such Governmental Authority has commenced steps to cause the Pool Property to be sold pursuant to such Lien), either (i) pay the claim and remove the Lien, or (ii) furnish a cash deposit, bond or such other security with respect thereto as is satisfactory in all respects to the Administrative Agent and is sufficient to effect a complete discharge of such Lien on the Pool Property.
|
SECTION 5.12 Appraisals.
The Administrative Agent may, for the purpose of determining the current Appraised Value of the Pool Properties, obtain new Appraisals or an update to existing Appraisals with respect to such property, or any of them, as the Administrative Agent shall determine, at any time while an Event of Default shall be in existence.

From time to time during the term of this Agreement following (i) Borrower's written request ("Release Request") and (ii) satisfaction of the Release Conditions, the Administrative Agent shall, in each case to the extent applicable, release the subject Pool Property from the calculation of the Borrowing Base Availability (and such Individual Property shall then cease to be a Pool Property) and release the subject Subsidiary Borrower which has no other ownership interest in any of the remaining Pool Properties, from further payment and performance of the Loans; provided, however, any such release by the Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to terminate or release such Pool Property Owner from any obligation or liability under any Loan Document which specifically by its terms survives the said release or the payment in full of the Obligations. The "Release Conditions" are the following:
|
|
(i)
|
Borrowing Base Compliance. The Borrower has delivered a Borrowing Base Certificate reflecting that, after giving effect to the release of the Pool Property and any related prepayment of the Loans pursuant to Section 2.10(e), the total Credit Exposure will be less than or equal to the Maximum Loan Available Amount.
|
|

|
|
(iv)
|
Payment of Fees. The Borrower shall pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent for all reasonable legal fees and expenses and other reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Administrative Agent in connection with the release.
|
Any failure of any removal and release requested by the Borrower to meet all of the Release Conditions shall be deemed a rejection of the proposed Release Request and, subject to the other terms and conditions hereof as to whether any Individual Property is a Pool Property, such Pool Property shall remain a Pool Property hereunder.
Provided that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, upon the release of a Pool Property as set forth above, Administrative Agent will, at the Borrower's sole cost and expense, release from the liens and security interests of the Loan Documents the Pledged Membership Interest of such Pool Property Owner (to the extent it has no other ownership interest in any of the remaining Pool Properties) pledged hereunder and, if such released Pool Property is a Mortgaged Property, such Mortgaged Property; provided any amounts due under Section 2.10 arising from such release are paid in accordance with the terms thereof.

The Administrative Agent shall give the Borrower prompt written notice of its determination with respect to the admission or rejection of any Individual Property as a Pool Property. To the extent that an Individual Property does not meet the requirements to qualify as a Pool Property, as defined, the Borrower may nevertheless request that such Individual Property be included as a Pool Property and the Required Lenders may, in their sole and absolute discretion, agree to the acceptance of such Individual Property as an additional Pool Property.
|
SECTION 5.14 Further Assurances.
At any time upon the request of the Administrative Agent, Borrower will (or will cause each Credit Party to), promptly and at its expense, execute, acknowledge and deliver such further documents and perform such other acts and things as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request to evidence the Loans made hereunder and interest thereon in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

ARTICLE VIII
The Administrative Agent
The Administrative Agent
Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent as its agent and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. In the event of conflicting instructions or notices given to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent and any Lender, the Borrower is hereby directed and shall rely conclusively on the instruction or notice given by the Administrative Agent.
The bank serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and such bank and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if it were not the Administrative Agent hereunder.
The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.02), and (c) except as expressly set forth herein, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to any Credit Party that is communicated to or obtained by the bank serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.02) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default (other than a payment Default) unless and until written notice thereof is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower or a Lender, and the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or in connection herewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent agrees that, in fulfilling its duties hereunder, it will use the same standard of care it utilizes in servicing loans for its own account.
The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in good faith in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.
The Administrative Agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of the preceding paragraphs shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent.
Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Administrative Agent as provided in this paragraph, the Administrative Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders and the Borrower, and may be removed by the Required Lenders in the event of the Administrative Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with the approval of Borrower (provided no Default has occurred and is continuing), which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, to appoint a successor. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation or is removed, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent which shall be a Lender, or a bank with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such bank. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent for its own behalf shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the Administrative Agent's resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article and Section 9.03 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while it was acting as Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall cooperate with any successor Administrative Agent in fulfilling its duties hereunder.
Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder. Administrative Agent agrees to provide the Lenders with copies of all material documents and certificates received by the Administrative Agent from Borrower in connection with the Loans.

Any party hereto may change its address or telecopy number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto. All notices and other communications given to any party hereto in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been given (i) if given by telecopy, when such telecopy is transmitted to the telecopy number specified in this Section and the appropriate confirmation is received (or if such day is not a Business Day, on the next Business Day); (ii) if given by mail (return receipt requested), on the earlier of receipt or three (3) Business Days after such communication is deposited in the mail with first class postage prepaid, addressed as aforesaid; or (iii) if given by any other means, when delivered at the address specified in this Section; provided that notices to the Administrative Agent under Article II shall not be effective until received.
Documents and notices required to be delivered to the Lenders pursuant to this Agreement may be delivered electronically and if so delivered, shall be deemed to have been delivered on the date on which such documents are posted on Borrower's behalf on an Internet or intranet website, if any, to which each Lender and Administrative Agent have access (whether a commercial, third-party website or whether sponsored by Administrative Agent). Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to request the delivery of or to maintain paper copies of the documents referred to above, and in any event shall have no responsibility to monitor compliance by Borrower with any such request by a Lender for delivery, and each Lender shall be solely responsible for requesting delivery to it or maintaining its copies of such documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no document shall be deemed to have been electronically delivered to the Administrative Agent or to any Lender unless such Internet or intranet website is set up to automatically deliver notice of postings thereon to the email address(es) that the Administrative Agent or such Lender may specify.
Borrower hereby acknowledges that (a) Administrative Agent will make available to the Lenders materials and/or information provided by or on behalf of Borrower and the other Credit Parties hereunder (collectively, "Borrower Materials") by posting Borrower Materials on IntraLinks or another similar electronic system (the "Platform") and (b) certain of the Lenders (each, a "Public Lender") may have personnel who do not wish to receive material non-public information with respect to Parent, Borrower or their Affiliates, or the respective Equity Interests of any of the foregoing, and who may be engaged in investment and other market-related activities with respect to such Persons' Equity Interests. The Parents and Borrower hereby agree that (w) all Borrower Materials that are to be made available to Public Lenders shall be clearly and conspicuously marked "PUBLIC" which, at a minimum, shall mean that the word "PUBLIC" shall appear prominently on the first page thereof; (x) by marking Borrower Materials "PUBLIC," the Parents and Borrower shall be deemed to have authorized Administrative Agent, Lead Arrangers, and the Lenders to treat such Borrower Materials as not containing any material non-public information with respect to any Parent or Borrower or their Equity Interests for purposes of United States Federal and state securities laws (provided that to the extent such Borrower Materials constitute Information, they shall be treated as set forth in Section 9.12); (y) all Borrower Materials marked "PUBLIC" are permitted to be made available through a portion of the Platform designated "Public Side Information;" and (z) Administrative Agent and the Lead Arrangers shall be entitled to treat any Borrower Materials that are not marked "PUBLIC" as being suitable only for posting on a portion of the Platform not designated "Public Side Information. Furthermore, each Public Lender agrees to cause at least one (1) individual at or on behalf of such Public Lender to at all times have selected the "Private Side Information" or similar designation on the content declaration screen of the Platform in order to enable such Public Lender or its delegate, in accordance with such Public Lender's compliance procedures and applicable Law, including United States Federal and state securities Laws, to make reference to Borrower Materials that are not made available through the "Public Side Information" portion of the Platform and that may contain material non-public information with respect to Borrower or its Equity Interests for purposes of United States Federal or state securities laws.
THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE." THE AGENT PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM, AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS IN OR OMISSIONS FROM THE BORROWER MATERIALS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY ANY AGENT PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE PLATFORM. In no event shall Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties (collectively, the "Agent Parties") have any liability to Borrower, any Lender, or any other Person for losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses of any kind (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of Borrower's or Administrative Agent's transmission of Borrower Materials through the Internet, except to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Agent Party; provided that in no event shall any Agent Party have any liability to Borrower, any Lender, or any other Person for indirect, special, incidental, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) resulting therefrom. Similarly, each Lender acknowledges that the Credit Parties do not control the posting to, or operation of, the Platform. Accordingly, the obligation of any Credit Parties under this Article are solely to identify and properly xxxx materials as "PUBLIC" where applicable.
SECTION 9.02 Waivers; Amendments.
|
(a)
|
No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder and under any other Loan Document are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by the Borrower therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time.
|
|
(b)
|
Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified, nor may any Event of Default be waived except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Required Lenders or by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall (i) increase or reduce (except in accordance with Section 2.08(b)) the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender, (ii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (iii) postpone the scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Loan, or any interest thereon, or any fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (iv) change Section 2.17(b) or (c) in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, without the written consent of each Lender, (v) change any of the provisions of this Section or the definition of "Required Lenders", or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender, (vi) release any Credit Party from its obligations under the Loan Documents or, release of any Collateral, except as specifically provided for herein, without the written consent of each Lender, (vii) subordinate the Loans or any Collateral without the written consent of each Lender, (viii) waive or modify any conditions of extending the Loans set forth in Section 2.20 without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, or (ix) consent to the Collateral securing any other Indebtedness without the written consent of each Lender; provided further that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent.
|
|
(c)
|
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder (and any amendment, waiver or consent which by its terms requires the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender may be effected with the consent of the applicable Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders), except that (x) the Commitment of any Defaulting Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender; and (y) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender that by its terms affects any Defaulting Lender more adversely than other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender.
|
|
(d)
|
Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary none of the Lenders or the Borrower will be required to execute assumption or amendment documents to add a Person as a Subsidiary Borrower. If Real Property assets are added to the Pool Properties in accordance with this Agreement and the Pool Property Owner (and/or any other Subsidiary required to become a Subsidiary Borrower pursuant to the definition thereof) is not already a Subsidiary Borrower, then (i) such Pool Property Owner and/or other Subsidiary shall be added as a Subsidiary Borrower as required by Section 5.13 pursuant to a Joinder Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F executed by such owner and delivered to the Administrative Agent, and (ii) the ownership interests in such Pool Property Owner shall be pledged by Borrower as required by Section 5.13.
|
|
(e)
|
Notwithstanding the fact that the consent of all the Lenders is required in certain circumstances as set forth above: (1) each Lender is entitled to vote as such Lender sees fit on any reorganization plan that affects the Loans, and each Lender acknowledges that the provisions of Section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code supersede the unanimous consent provisions set forth herein; and (2) the Required Lenders may consent to allow a Loan Party to use cash collateral in the context of a bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding. Administrative Agent may, after consultation with Borrower, agree to the modification of any term of this Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document to correct any printing, stenographic or clerical errors or omissions that are inconsistent with the terms hereof.
|
|
(f)
|
If Administrative Agent shall request the consent of any Lender to any amendment, change, waiver, discharge, termination, consent or exercise of rights covered by this Credit Agreement, and not receive such consent or denial thereof in writing within ten (10) Business Days of the making of such request by Administrative Agent, as the case may be, such Lender shall be deemed to have given its consent to the request.
|
SECTION 9.03 Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver.
|
(a)
|
The Borrower shall pay (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent, in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation and administration of this Agreement or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), (ii) all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent or any Lender, in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement, including its rights under this Section, or in connection with the Loans made hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any waivers, workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans.

The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an "Indemnitee") against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) any Loan or the use of the proceeds therefrom, (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee as determined by a court of law in a final non-appealable judgment, or the failure of the Indemnitee to make advances pursuant to its Commitment in breach of its obligations hereunder.
|
|
(c)
|
To the extent that the Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, such Lender's Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such.
|
|
(d)
|
To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower and each other Credit Party shall not assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the Transactions, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof.
|
|
(e)
|
All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than ten days after written demand therefor.
|
SECTION 9.04 Successors and Assigns.
|
(a)
|
The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby except that the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrower without such consent shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.
|
|
(b)
|
(i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more assignees (other than to a natural Person, any Credit Party or any Affiliate or Subsidiary of any Credit Party) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) of:
|
(A) the Lead Borrowers, provided that (i) no consent of the Lead Borrowers shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund or, if a Default has occurred and is continuing, any other assignee, and (ii) such consent shall be deemed granted unless the Lead Borrowers object within five (5) Business Days of a receipt of written notice of the proposed assignment; and
(B) the Administrative Agent, provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund.
Provided, no consent of the Lead Borrowers or the Administrative Agent shall be required in connection with any assignment to an entity acquiring, or merging with, a Lender.
(ii) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions:
(A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender's Commitment or Loans, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $5,000,000.00 unless each of the Lead Borrowers and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent, provided that no such consent of the Lead Borrowers shall be required if a Default has occurred and is continuing and such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld;
(B) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loans or the Commitment assigned;
(C) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500.00; and
(D) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.
For the purposes of this Section 9.04(b), the term "Approved Fund" has the following meaning:
"Approved Fund" means any Person (other than a natural person) that is engaged in making, purchasing, holding or investing in bank loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business and that is administered or managed by (a) a Lender, (b) an Affiliate of a Lender or (c) an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender.
(iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and 9.03). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 9.04 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section.
(iv) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the "Register"). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.
(v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee's completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.
|
(c)
|
Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a "Participant") in all or a portion of such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender's obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 9.02(b) that affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (d) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14, 2.15 and 2.16 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.08 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.17(c) as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant's interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the "Participant Register"); provided that, except in the case of a Participant asserting any right of set-off pursuant to Section 9.08, no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant's interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.
|
|
(d)
|
A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.14 or 2.16 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower's prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.16 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 2.16(e) as though it were a Lender.
|
|
(e)
|
Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.
|
SECTION 9.05 Survival.
All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Borrower and each other Credit Party herein and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of any Loans, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and 9.03 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.
SECTION 9.06 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness; Joint and Several.
|

|

This Agreement and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof.
|
|
(c)
|
Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.

|
The Borrower agrees that it shall never be entitled to be subrogated to any of the Administrative Agent's or any Lender's rights against any Credit Party or other Person or any collateral or offset rights held by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders for payment of the Loans until the full and final payment of the Loans and all other obligations incurred under the Loan Documents and final termination of the Lenders' obligations, if any, to make further advances under this Agreement or to provide any other financial accommodations to any Credit Party.
|
SECTION 9.07 Severability.
Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.
SECTION 9.08 Right of Setoff.
If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized, upon the prior consent of the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders, at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits of Borrower (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, but excluding any funds held by the Borrower on behalf of tenants or other third parties) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of Borrower against any of and all the obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations may be unmatured. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower after any such setoff and application made by such Lender, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. The rights of each Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have.

SECTION 9.12 Confidentiality.
Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates' directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority, (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party to this Agreement, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the enforcement of rights hereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, (g) with the consent of the Borrower, (h) to any Person in connection with any Hedging Agreement, (i) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower, or (j) to the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any other similar organization or any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information about a Lender's or its Affiliates' investment portfolio in connection with ratings issued with respect to such Lender or its Affiliates. For the purposes of this Section, "Information" means all information received from any Credit Party relating to the Credit Party or its business, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by any Credit Party; provided that, in the case of information received from any Credit Party after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.
SECTION 9.13 Interest Rate Limitation.
If at any time there exists a maximum rate of interest which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lenders in accordance with applicable law (the "Maximum Rate"), then notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, at any time the interest applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts which are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law (collectively, the "Charges"), shall exceed such Maximum Rate, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been paid in respect of such Loan but were not payable as result of the operation of this Section shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to the Lenders in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by the Lenders. If, for any reason whatsoever, the Charges paid or received on the Loans produces a rate which exceeds the Maximum Rate, the Lenders shall credit against the principal of the Loans (or, if such indebtedness shall have been paid in full, shall refund to the payor of such Charges) such portion of said Charges as shall be necessary to cause the interest paid on the Loans to produce a rate equal to the Maximum Rate. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to the holders of the Loans for the use, forbearance or detention of the Loans shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread in equal parts throughout the full term of this Agreement, so that the interest rate is uniform throughout the full term of this Agreement. The provisions of this Section shall control all agreements, whether now or hereafter existing and whether written or oral, between the parties hereto. Without notice to the Borrower or any other person or entity, the Maximum Rate, if any, shall automatically fluctuate upward and downward as and in the amount by which such maximum nonusurious rate of interest permitted by applicable law fluctuates.
SECTION 9.14 USA PATRIOT Act.
Each Lender hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the "Act"), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower and each other Credit Party, which information includes the name and address of each Credit Party and other information that will allow such Lender to identify each Credit Party in accordance with the Act.
SECTION 9.15 Fiduciary Duty/No Conflicts.
The Administrative Agent, each Lender and their Affiliates (collectively, solely for purposes of this paragraph, the "Lenders"), may have economic interests that conflict with those of the Credit Parties, their stockholders and/or their affiliates. Each Credit Party agrees that nothing in the Loan Documents or otherwise will be deemed to create an advisory, fiduciary or agency relationship or fiduciary or other implied duty between any Lender, on the one hand, and such Credit Party, its stockholders or its affiliates, on the other. The Credit Parties acknowledge and agree that (i) the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents (including the exercise of rights and remedies hereunder and thereunder) are arm's-length commercial transactions between the Lenders, on the one hand, and the Credit Parties, on the other, and (ii) in connection therewith and with the process leading thereto, (x) no Lender has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of any Credit Party, its stockholders or its affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby (or the exercise of rights or remedies with respect thereto) or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether any Lender has advised, is currently advising or will advise any Credit Party, its stockholders or its Affiliates on other matters) or any other obligation to any Credit Party except the obligations expressly set forth in the Credit Documents and (y) each Lender is acting hereunder solely as principal and not as the agent or fiduciary of any Credit Party, its management, stockholders, creditors or any other Person. Each Credit Party acknowledges and agrees that it has consulted its own legal and financial advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate and that it is responsible for making its own independent judgment with respect to such transactions and the process leading thereto. Each Credit Party agrees that it will not claim that any Lender has rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to such Credit Party, in connection with such transaction or the process leading thereto in its capacity as a Lender.

Accordingly, the Lenders and the Agent shall not be obligated or required before enforcing this Guaranty against any Guarantor: (a) to pursue any right or remedy the Lenders or the Agent may have against the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person or commence any suit or other proceeding against the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person in any court or other tribunal; (b) to make any claim in a liquidation or bankruptcy of the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person; or (c) to make demand of the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person or to enforce or seek to enforce or realize upon any collateral security held by the Lenders or the Agent which may secure any of the Obligations. In this connection, Guarantor hereby waives the right of such Guarantor to require any holder of the Obligations to take action against the Borrower as provided by any legal requirement of any Governmental Authority.
Section 3. Guaranty Absolute. Guarantor guarantees that the Obligations will be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of the documents evidencing the same, regardless of any legal requirement now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of the Agent or the Lenders with respect thereto. The liability of Guarantor under this Guaranty shall be absolute and unconditional in accordance with its terms and shall remain in full force and effect without regard to, and shall not be released, suspended, discharged, terminated or otherwise affected by, any circumstance or occurrence whatsoever (other than the full and final payment and performance of the Obligations), including, without limitation, the following (whether or not such Guarantor consents thereto or has notice thereof):
(a) (i) any change in the amount, interest rate or due date or other term of any of the Obligations; (ii) any change in the time, place or manner of payment of all or any portion of the Obligations; (iii) any amendment or waiver of, or consent to the departure from or other indulgence with respect to, the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any other document or instrument evidencing or relating to any Obligations; or (iv) any waiver, renewal, extension, addition, or supplement to, or deletion from, or any other action or inaction under or in respect of, the Credit Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents, or any other documents, instruments or agreements relating to the Obligations or any other instrument or agreement referred to therein or evidencing any Obligations or any assignment or transfer of any of the foregoing;
(b) any lack of validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents, or any other document, instrument or agreement referred to therein or evidencing any Obligations or any assignment or transfer of any of the foregoing;
(c) any furnishing to the Agent or the Lenders of any security for the Obligations, or any sale, exchange, release or surrender of, or realization on, any collateral security for the Obligations;
(d) any settlement or compromise of any of the Obligations, any security therefor, or any liability of any other party with respect to the Obligations, or any subordination of the payment of the Obligations to the payment of any other liability of the Borrower;
(e) any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, composition, adjustment, dissolution, liquidation or other like proceeding relating to any other Guarantor, the Borrower or any other Person, or any action taken with respect to this Guaranty by any trustee or receiver, or by any court, in any such proceeding;
(f) any nonperfection of any security interest or other Lien on any of the collateral securing any of the Obligations;
(g) any act or failure to act by the Borrower or any other Person which may adversely affect such Guarantor's subrogation rights, if any, against the Borrower to recover payments made under this Guaranty;
(h) any application of sums paid by the Borrower or any other Person with respect to the liabilities of the Borrower to the Agent or the Lenders, regardless of what liabilities of the Borrower remain unpaid;
(i) any defect, limitation or insufficiency in the borrowing powers of the Borrower or in the exercise thereof; or
(j) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Guarantor hereunder.
The value of the consideration received and to be received by each Guarantor is reasonably worth at least as much as the liability and obligation of each Guarantor incurred or arising under the Loan Documents. Each Guarantor has determined that such liability and obligation may reasonably be expected to substantially benefit each Guarantor directly or indirectly. Each Guarantor has had full and complete access to the underlying papers relating to the Loans and all of the Loan Documents, has reviewed them and is fully aware of the meaning and effect of their contents. Each Guarantor is fully informed of all circumstances which bear upon the risks of executing this Guaranty and which a diligent inquiry would reveal. Each Guarantor has adequate means to obtain from each other Credit Party on a continuing basis information concerning such other Credit Party's financial condition, and is not depending on the Administrative Agent or the Lenders to provide such information, now or in the future. Each Guarantor agrees that neither the Administrative Agent nor any of the Lenders shall have any obligation to advise or notify any Guarantor or to provide any Guarantor with any data or information regarding any other Credit Party.
Section 4. Action with Respect to Obligations. The Lenders and the Agent may in accordance with the Credit Agreement, at any time and from time to time, without the consent of, or notice to, any Guarantor, and without discharging any Guarantor from its obligations hereunder take any and all actions described in Section 3 and may otherwise: (a) amend, modify, alter or supplement the terms of any of the Obligations, including, but not limited to, extending or shortening the time of payment of any of the Obligations or the interest rate that may accrue on any of the Obligations; (b) amend, modify, alter or supplement the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document; (c) sell, exchange, release or otherwise deal with all, or any part, of any collateral securing any of the Obligations; (d) release any Person liable in any manner for the payment or collection of the Obligations; (e) exercise, or refrain from exercising, any rights against the Borrower or any other Person (including, without limitation, any other Guarantor); and (f) apply any sum, by whomsoever paid or however realized, to the Obligations in such order as the Lenders or the Agent shall elect in accordance with the Credit Agreement.
Section 5. Representations and Warranties. Guarantor hereby makes to the Agent and the Lenders all of the representations and warranties made by the Borrower with respect to or in any way relating to such Guarantor in the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, as if the same were set forth herein in full.
Section 6. Covenants. Guarantor will comply with all covenants which the Borrower is to cause such Guarantor to comply with under the terms of the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Documents.
Section 7. Waiver. Guarantor, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, hereby waives notice of acceptance hereof or any presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, and any other act or thing, or omission or delay to do any other act or thing, which in any manner or to any extent might vary the risk of such Guarantor or which otherwise might operate to discharge such Guarantor from its obligations hereunder.
Section 8. Inability to Accelerate Loan. If the Agent and/or the Lenders are prevented from demanding or accelerating payment thereof by reason of any automatic stay or otherwise, the Agent and/or the Lenders shall be entitled to receive from Guarantor, upon demand therefor, the sums which otherwise would have been due had such demand or acceleration occurred.
Section 9. Reinstatement of Obligations. Guarantor agrees that this Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, with respect to any Obligations if at any time payment of any such Obligations is rescinded or otherwise must be restored by the Agent and/or the Lenders upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower or any Guarantor or otherwise.
Section 10. Subrogation. Until all of the Obligations shall have been indefeasibly paid in full, any right of subrogation a Guarantor may have shall be subordinate to the rights of Agent and the Lenders and Guarantor hereby waives any right to enforce any remedy which the Agent and/or the Lenders now have or may hereafter have against the Borrower, and Guarantor hereby waives any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any security or collateral given to the Agent and the Lenders to secure payment or performance of any of the Obligations.
Section 11. Payments Free and Clear. All sums payable by Guarantor hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes (as defined in the Credit Agreement) or Other Taxes (as defined in the Credit Agreement); provided that if any Guarantor shall be required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section), the Agent or any Lender (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made; (ii) such Guarantor shall make such deductions; and (iii) such Guarantor shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority (as defined in the Credit Agreement) in accordance with applicable law.
Section 12. Set-off. Guarantor hereby grants to Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, a security interest in and lien on all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by Agent to or for the credit or the account of any Guarantor. In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, each Lender is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final but excluding any funds held by the Borrower on behalf of tenants or other third parties) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such Lender to or for the credit or the account of any Guarantor against any of and all the obligations of such Guarantor now or hereafter existing under this Guaranty held by such Lender then due and payable. Guarantor agrees, to the fullest extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any holder of a participation in a Note, whether or not acquired pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Credit Agreement, may exercise rights of setoff or counterclaim and other rights with respect to such participation as fully as if such holder of a participation were a direct creditor of such Guarantor in the amount of such participation.
Section 13. Subordination. Guarantor hereby expressly covenants and agrees for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders that all obligations and liabilities of the Borrower or any other Guarantor to such Guarantor of whatever description, including without limitation, all intercompany receivables of such Guarantor from the Borrower or any other Guarantor (collectively, the "Junior Claims") shall be subordinate and junior in right of payment to all Obligations; provided, however, that payment thereof may be made so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, then no Guarantor shall accept any direct or indirect payment (in cash, property, securities by setoff or otherwise) from the Borrower or any other Guarantor on account of or in any manner in respect of any Junior Claim until all of the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full.
Section 14. Avoidance Provisions. It is the intent of Guarantor, the Agent and the Lenders that in any Proceeding, such Guarantor's maximum obligation hereunder shall equal, but not exceed, the maximum amount which would not otherwise cause the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder (or any other obligations of such Guarantor to the Agent and the Lenders) to be avoidable or unenforceable against such Guarantor in such Proceeding as a result of applicable law, including without limitation, (a) Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code of 1978, as amended (the "Bankruptcy Code") and (b) any state fraudulent transfer or fraudulent conveyance act or statute applied in such Proceeding, whether by virtue of Section 544 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise. The applicable laws under which the possible avoidance or unenforceability of the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder (or any other obligations of such Guarantor to the Agent and the Lenders) shall be determined in any such Proceeding are referred to as the "Avoidance Provisions." Accordingly, to the extent that the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder would otherwise be subject to avoidance under the Avoidance Provisions, the maximum Obligations for which such Guarantor shall be liable hereunder shall be reduced to that amount which, as of the time any of the Obligations are deemed to have been incurred under the Avoidance Provisions, would not cause the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder (or any other obligations of such Guarantor to the Agent and the Lenders), to be subject to avoidance under the Avoidance Provisions. This Section is intended solely to preserve the rights of the Agent and the Lenders hereunder to the maximum extent that would not cause the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder to be subject to avoidance under the Avoidance Provisions, and no Guarantor nor any other Person shall have any right or claim under this Section as against the Agent and the Lenders that would not otherwise be available to such Person under the Avoidance Provisions.
Section 15. Information. Guarantor assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of the financial condition of the Borrower, of the other Guarantors and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of any of the Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks that such Guarantor assumes and incurs hereunder, and agrees that none of the Agent or any Lender shall have any duty whatsoever to advise any Guarantor of information regarding such circumstances or risks.
Section 16. Governing Law. THIS GUARANTY SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
Section 17. Jurisdiction; Venue; JURY WAIVER.
a) Guarantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts in Boston, Massachusetts and in New York, New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Guaranty or any other Loan Document, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Guaranty shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Guaranty or any other Loan Document against the Guarantor or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.
b) Guarantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Guaranty or any other Loan Document in any court referred to in paragraph (a) of this Section. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.
c) WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS GUARANTY, ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.
Section 18. Loan Accounts. The Agent may maintain books and accounts setting forth the amounts of principal, interest and other sums paid and payable with respect to the Obligations, and in the case of any dispute relating to any of the outstanding amount, payment or receipt of Obligation or otherwise, the entries in such account shall be binding upon Guarantor as to the outstanding amount of such Obligations and the amounts paid and payable with respect thereto absent manifest error. The failure of the Agent to maintain such books and accounts shall not in any way relieve or discharge any Guarantor of any of its obligations hereunder.
Section 19. Waiver of Remedies. No delay or failure on the part of the Agent or the Lenders in the exercise of any right or remedy it may have against any Guarantor hereunder or otherwise shall operate as a waiver thereof, and no single or partial exercise by the Agent or the Lenders of any such right or remedy shall preclude other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other such right or remedy.
Section 20. Successors and Assigns. Each reference herein to the Agent or the Lenders shall be deemed to include such Person's respective successors and assigns (including, but not limited to, any holder of the Obligations) in whose favor the provisions of this Guaranty also shall inure, and each reference herein to any Guarantor shall be deemed to include the Guarantor's successors and assigns, upon whom this Guaranty also shall be binding. The Lenders and the Agent may, in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Credit Agreement, assign, transfer or sell any Obligation, or grant or sell participation in any Obligations, to any Person or entity without the consent of, or notice to, any Guarantor and without releasing, discharging or modifying such Guarantor's obligations hereunder. Guarantor hereby consents to the delivery by the Agent or any Lender to any assignee, transferee or participant of any financial or other information regarding the Borrower or any Guarantor. Guarantor may not assign or transfer its obligations hereunder to any Person.
Section 21. Amendments. This Guaranty may not be amended except as provided in the Credit Agreement.
Section 22. Payments. All payments made by any Guarantor pursuant to this Guaranty shall be made in Dollars, in immediately available funds to the Agent at the place and time provided for in the Credit Agreement on the date one (1) Business Day after written demand therefor to such Guarantor by the Agent.
SECTION 23. JOINT AND SEVERAL OBLIGATIONS. THE OBLIGATIONS OF THE GUARANTORS HEREUNDER AND UNDER OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS SHALL BE JOINT AND SEVERAL, AND ACCORDINGLY, GUARANTOR (BUT NOT ITS LIMITED PARTNERS, SHAREHOLDERS OR MEMBERS) CONFIRMS THAT IT (BUT NOT ITS LIMITED PARTNERS, SHAREHOLDERS OR MEMBERS) IS LIABLE FOR THE FULL AMOUNT OF THE OBLIGATIONS AND ALL OF THE OBLIGATIONS AND UNDER OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS.
Section 24. Notices. All notices, requests and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be given as provided in the Loan Agreement. Guarantor's address for notice is set forth below its signature hereto.
Section 25. Severability. In case any provision of this Guaranty shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.
Section 26. Keepwell. Each Guarantor that is a Qualified ECP Party at the time that this Guaranty becomes effective with respect to any Hedging Obligation, hereby jointly and severally, absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Guarantor that is not then an "eligible contract participant" under the Commodity Exchange Act (a "Specified Guarantor") to honor all of its obligations under this Guaranty in respect of Hedging Obligations (but, in each case, only up to the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering such Qualified ECP Party's obligations and undertakings under this Section 26 voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The obligations and undertakings of each Qualified ECP Party under this Section shall remain in full force and effect until the Guarantied Obligations have been indefeasibly paid and performed in full. Each Qualified ECP Party intends this Section to constitute, and this Section shall be deemed to constitute, a guarantee of the obligations of, and a "keepwell, support, or other agreement" for the benefit of, each Specified Guarantor for all purposes of the Commodity Exchange Act.
Section 27. Headings. Section headings used in this Guaranty are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction of this Guaranty.

No payment by Agent or the Lenders shall relieve Mortgagor from any default hereunder or impair any right or remedy of Agent consequent thereon.
|
|
12.
|
Tax Reserve and Insurance Reserve. Mortgagor shall, upon the request of Agent, from time to time while an Event of Default is existing, pay to Agent on dates upon which installments of interest are payable under the Credit Agreement, such amount as Agent from time to time estimates as reasonably necessary to create and maintain a reserve fund from which to pay before the same become due: (a) all taxes, assessments, liens and similar charges on or against the Mortgaged Property, and (b) all premiums for insurance policies which are required by the Credit Agreement. Such payments, if so requested, shall be invested in a non-interest bearing account which shall be held by Agent as cash collateral. For so long as an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any part or all of such reserve funds may be applied, at the option of Agent, to cure the existing Event of Default and/or pay down any part of the indebtedness hereby secured and/or pay to the taxing authority or the insurer the applicable real estate taxes or insurance premiums then due on behalf of Mortgagor. If no Event of Default is existing, then all such reserve funds being held by Agent shall be used or made available in a timely manner to pay applicable insurance premiums, taxes, assessments, liens, and similar charges when due. Payments from such reserve fund for said purposes may be made by Agent at its sole but reasonable discretion even though subsequent owners of the property described herein may benefit thereby. In refunding any part of said reserve fund, Agent may deal with the record owner of such property at that time.
|
|
13.
|
Certain Expenses. If any action or proceeding is commenced, including, without limitation, an action to foreclose this Mortgage or to collect the debt hereby secured, to which action or proceeding Agent or any Lender is made a party by reason of the execution of this Mortgage, or by reason of any obligation which it secures, or by reason of entry or any other action under this Mortgage, or if in Agent's reasonable judgment it becomes necessary in connection with legal proceedings or otherwise to defend or uphold the mortgage hereby granted or the lien hereby created or any act taken to defend or uphold the mortgage hereby granted or the lien hereby created or any act taken under this Mortgage, all sums reasonably paid or incurred by Agent or any Lender for the expense of any litigation or otherwise, in connection with any rights created by this Mortgage or any other Loan Document, shall be paid by Mortgagor, or may at the option of Agent, if not so paid, be added to the debt secured hereby and shall be secured hereby equally and ratably and shall bear interest until paid at the Default Rate.
|
|
14.
|
Regarding Leases. Except as otherwise provided in the Credit Agreement, Mortgagor shall not enter into any leases or occupancy agreements with respect to the Mortgaged Property and shall not modify or amend any such leases or occupancy agreements without Agent's prior written consent in each instance. As to all leases and occupancy agreements, Agent, at its option from time to time, may require that all security deposits and similar funds or security provided by a lessee or occupant be deposited with Agent, or with an escrow agent satisfactory to Agent, subject to the rights of the lessee or occupant, but otherwise subject to a security interest in favor of Agent.
|
|
15.
|
Declaration of Subordination. At the option of Agent, which may be exercised at any time or from time to time, by written notice to Mortgagor and to any applicable tenant, this Mortgage shall become subject and subordinate, in whole or in part (but not with respect to priority of entitlement to insurance proceeds or condemnation proceeds), to any and all leases of all or any part of the Mortgaged Property upon the execution by Agent and recording or filing thereof, at any time hereafter in the appropriate official records of the county/registry of deeds wherein the Mortgaged Property are situated of a unilateral declaration to that effect.

Mortgagor does hereby irrevocably appoint Agent as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact in its name and stead (with or without taking possession of the Mortgaged Property) to rent, lease, let, or sell all or any portion of the Mortgaged Property to any party or parties at such price and upon such term as Agent in its sole and absolute discretion may determine, to exercise any and all rights including rights of first refusal and options of any Mortgagor to purchase and otherwise acquire title to all or any part of the Mortgaged Property, and to collect all rents, issues, deposits, profits and avails now due or that may hereafter become due under any and all of such agreements or other tenancies now or hereafter existing on the Mortgaged Property, with the same rights and powers and subject to the same immunities, exoneration of liability and rights of recourse and indemnity as Agent would have upon taking possession of the Mortgaged Property pursuant to the provisions set forth herein below.
This assignment confers upon Agent a power coupled with an interest and it cannot be revoked by Mortgagor.
(ii) Mortgagor represents and agrees that without the prior written consent of Agent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, no rent for right of future possession will be paid by any person in possession of any portion of the Mortgaged Property in excess of one installment thereof paid in advance and that no payment of rents to become due for any portion of the Mortgaged Property has been or will be waived, conceded, released, reduced, discounted, or otherwise discharged or compromised by Mortgagor. Mortgagor waives any right of set-off against any person in possession of any portion of the Mortgaged Property. Mortgagor agrees that it will not assign any of such rents, issues, profits, deposits or avails except as permitted in this Mortgage or the other Loan Documents.
(iii) Mortgagor further agrees to assign and transfer to Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, all future leases and agreements pertaining to all or any portion of the Mortgaged Property and to execute and deliver to Agent, immediately upon demand of Agent, all such further assurances and assignments pertaining to the Mortgaged Property as Agent may from time to time require.
(iv) Mortgagor shall, at its own cost: (a) at all times perform and observe in all material respects all of the covenants, conditions and agreements of the lessor under the terms of any or all leases or similar agreements affecting all or any part of the Mortgaged Property; (b) at all times enforce and secure the performance and observance of all of the material covenants, conditions and agreements of the lessees under the terms of any or all of said leases or other agreements; (c) appear in and defend any action or other proceeding arising out of or in any manner connected with said leases and other agreements, and to pay any and all reasonable out-of-pocket costs of Agent incurred by reason of or in connection with said proceedings, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees, expenses and court costs; and (d) promptly furnish Agent with copies of any notices of default either sent or received by Mortgagor under the terms of or pursuant to any of said leases or other agreements.
(v) ALTHOUGH IT IS THE INTENTION OF MORTGAGOR AND AGENT THAT THE ASSIGNMENT AND OTHER RIGHTS AND POWERS, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE POWER OF ATTORNEY APPOINTMENT, CONTAINED IN THIS SECTION 16 IS A PRESENT ASSIGNMENT, IT IS EXPRESSLY UNDERSTOOD AND AGREED, ANYTHING HEREIN CONTAINED TO THE CONTRARY NOTWITHSTANDING, THAT AGENT SHALL NOT EXERCISE ANY OF THE RIGHTS AND POWERS CONFERRED UPON IT IN THIS SECTION 16 UNLESS AND UNTIL AN EVENT OF DEFAULT HAS OCCURRED, AND IS CONTINUING.
(vi) Agent, in the exercise of the rights and powers conferred upon it herein, shall have full power to use and apply the rents, issues, deposits, profits and avails of the Mortgaged Property to the payment of or on account of the following,
|
(a)
|
all expenses of managing the Mortgaged Property including, without being limited thereto, the salaries, fees and wages of a managing agent and such other employees as Agent may reasonably deem necessary or desirable, and all expenses of operating and maintaining the Mortgaged Property, including, without being limited thereto, all taxes, charges, claims, assessments, water rents, sewer rents and other liens, and premiums for all insurance which Agent may deem reasonably necessary or desirable, the payment or refund of security deposits, or interest thereon, and the cost of all improvements, alterations, renovations, repairs or replacements, and all expenses incident to taking and retaining possession of the Mortgaged Property; and
|
|
(b)
|
all sums which Mortgagor is responsible to pay under this Mortgage, and the principal sum, interest and indebtedness secured hereby, and all other Obligations together with all costs and attorneys' fees, in such order of priority as to any of the items mentioned in this clause (vi) as Agent in its sole discretion may determine, any statute, law, custom, or use to the contrary notwithstanding.
|
(vii) Mortgagor does further specifically authorize and instruct each and every present and future lessee or purchaser of all or any portion of the Mortgaged Property, upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, to pay all unpaid rentals or deposits agreed upon in any lease or agreement pertaining to the Mortgaged Property to Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, upon receipt of demand from Agent to pay the same without any further notice or authorization by Mortgagor, and Mortgagor hereby waives any rights or claims it may have against any lessee by reason of such payments to Agent.
(viii) Neither Agent nor any Lender shall be obligated to perform or discharge, nor does Agent or any Lender hereby undertake to perform or discharge, any obligation, duty or liability under any lease or agreement pertaining to the Mortgaged Property, and Mortgagor shall and does hereby agree to indemnify and hold Agent and the Lenders harmless from and against any and all liability, loss and damage that Agent or any Lender may or might incur under any such lease or agreement or under or by reason of the assignment thereof, as well as any and all claims and demands whatsoever which may be asserted against Agent or any Lender by reason of any alleged obligations or undertakings on Agent's or any Lender's part to perform or discharge any of the terms, covenants or conditions contained in such leases or agreements, except to the extent any of the foregoing is caused by the gross negligence or omissions of Agent or any Lender or any of their agents in the exercise of its rights and remedies. Should Agent or any Lender incur any such liability, loss or damage under any such lease or agreement, or under or by reason of the assignment thereof, or in the defense of any claims or demands relating thereto, Mortgagor shall reimburse Agent and such Lender for the amount thereof (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees, expenses and court costs) immediately upon demand.
(ix) Nothing herein contained shall be construed as making or constituting Agent or any Lender a "mortgagee in possession" in the absence of the taking of actual possession of the Mortgaged Property by Agent pursuant to the provisions set forth herein. In the exercise of the powers herein granted Agent, no liability shall be asserted or enforced against Agent or any Lender, all such liability being expressly waived and released by Mortgagor.
(x) Except as otherwise provided in the Credit Agreement, Mortgagor may not enter into new leases or amend, modify, terminate or cancel any existing lease or waive any rights thereunder, or accept a voluntary surrender of any lease, without the prior written consent of Agent.
(xi) Without limitation of the provisions of this section or of the absolute nature of the assignment of the rents, leases, issues, deposits and profits as set forth hereinabove, Mortgagor and Agent agree that (a) this Mortgage shall constitute a "security agreement" for purposes of Section 552(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, (b) the security interest created by this Mortgage extends to property of Mortgagor acquired before the commencement of a case in bankruptcy and to all amounts paid as rents, leases, issues, deposits and profits, and (c) such security interest shall extend to all rents, leases, issues, deposits and profits acquired by the estate after the commencement of any case in bankruptcy. Without limitation of the provisions of this section or of the absolute nature of the assignment of the rents, leases, issues, deposits and profits hereunder, to the extent Mortgagor (or Mortgagor's bankruptcy estate) shall be deemed to hold any interest in any such rents, leases, issues, deposits and profits after the commencement of a voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy case, Mortgagor hereby acknowledges and agrees that all such rents, leases, issues, deposits and profits are and shall be deemed to be "cash collateral" under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code. Mortgagor may not use the cash collateral without the consent of Agent and/or an order of any bankruptcy court pursuant to 11 U.S.C. 363(c)(2), and Mortgagor hereby waives any right it may have to assert that such rents, leases, issues, deposits and profits do not constitute cash collateral. No consent by Agent to the use of cash collateral by Mortgagor shall be deemed to constitute Agent's approval, as the case may be, of the purpose for which such cash collateral was expended.

Mortgagor hereby irrevocably appoints Agent, or any agent designated by Agent, the true and lawful attorney-in-fact of Mortgagor, with full power of substitution, to execute, acknowledge and deliver any such things on behalf of Mortgagor which Mortgagor fails or refuses to do. In addition, Mortgagor hereby irrevocably authorizes Agent 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 Agent to establish or maintain the validity, perfection and priority of the security interests granted in this Mortgage.

Additional Rights of Agent.
|
|
20.1
|
Enter and Perform. Mortgagor authorizes Agent, in addition to all other rights granted by law or by this Mortgage, or by any of the other Loan Documents, whenever and as long as any Event of Default hereunder or under the Credit Agreement shall exist and remain uncured beyond the applicable grace period, if any, and without notice beyond the notice, if any, required to be given by the terms of the Note or the Credit Agreement, or upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under the Credit Agreement, to enter and take possession of all or any part of the Mortgaged Property and to use, lease, operate, manage and control the same and conduct the business thereof, and perform lessor's obligations under any lease, or Mortgagor's obligations under any other agreement affecting all or any part of the Mortgaged Property, and collect the rents, profits and all receipts of every nature therefrom as Agent shall deem best.
|
|
20.2
|
Appointment of Receiver. After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Agent may, at Agent's sole option, make application to a court of competent jurisdiction for appointment of a receiver for all or any part of the Mortgaged Property, as a matter of strict right and without notice to Mortgagor, and Mortgagor does hereby irrevocably consent to such appointment, waives any and all notices of and defenses to such appointment and agrees not to oppose any application therefor by Agent, but nothing herein is construed to deprive Agent of any other right, remedy or privilege Agent may now have under the law to have a receiver appointed; provided that the appointment of such receiver, trustee or other appointee by virtue of any court order, statute or regulation shall not impair or in any manner prejudice the rights of Agent to receive payment of all of the rents, issues, deposits and profits pursuant to other terms and provisions set forth in this Mortgage. Such appointment may be made either before or after sale, without notice; without regard to the solvency or insolvency, at the time of application for such receiver, of the person or persons, if any, liable for the payment of the Obligations; without regard to the value of the Mortgaged Property at such time and whether or not the same is then occupied as a homestead; without bond being required of the applicant; and Agent hereunder or any employee or agent thereof may be appointed as such receiver. Such receiver shall have all powers and duties prescribed by law, including the power to take possession, control and care of the Mortgaged Property and to collect all rents, issues, deposits, profits and avails thereof during the pendency of such foreclosure suit and apply all funds received toward the Obligations, and in the event of a sale and a deficiency where Mortgagor has not waived its statutory rights of redemption, during the full statutory period of redemption, as well as during any further times when Mortgagor or its devisees, legatees, administrators, legal representatives, successors or assigns, except for the intervention of such receiver, would be entitled to collect such rents, issues, deposits, profits and avails, and shall have all other powers that may be necessary or useful in such cases for the protection, possession, control, management and operation of the Mortgaged Property during the whole of any such period. To the extent permitted by law, such receiver may extend or modify any then existing leases and make new leases of the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof, which extensions, modifications and new leases may provide for terms to expire, or for options to lessees to extend or renew terms to expire, beyond the Maturity Date, it being understood and agreed that any such leases, and the options or other such provisions to be contained therein, shall be binding upon Mortgagor and all persons whose interests in the Mortgaged Property are subject to the lien hereof, and upon the purchaser or purchasers at any such foreclosure sale, notwithstanding any redemption from sale, discharge of indebtedness, satisfaction of foreclosure decree or issuance of certificate of sale or deed to any purchaser.
|
|
20.3
|
Repairs and Improvements. Upon every such entry, Agent may from time to time at the expense of Mortgagor make all such repairs, replacements, alterations, additions and improvements to the Mortgaged Property as Agent may deem necessary or proper, but in no event shall Agent be obligated to do so, and may, but shall not be obligated to, exercise all rights and powers of Mortgagor, either in the name of Mortgagor, or otherwise as Agent shall determine. Without limitation express or implied upon the generality of the foregoing, Agent shall have the right to do all things necessary or desirable in order to keep in full force and effect all applicable licenses, permits and authorizations and any amendments thereto.

|
|
20.5
|
Add to Secured Indebtedness. All obligations so paid or incurred by Agent shall be reimbursed or paid for by Mortgagor upon demand and prior to the repayment thereof shall be added to the debt secured hereby and shall bear interest at the Default Rate, and shall be secured hereby equally and ratably. Agent may also reimburse itself therefor from the income or receipts of the Mortgaged Property or any business conducted thereon, or from the sale of all or any portion of the Mortgaged Property. For so long as any Event of Default exists, Agent may also apply toward any of the Obligations any tax or insurance reserve account, deposit or any sum credited or due from Agent to Mortgagor without first enforcing any other rights of Agent against Mortgagor or against any endorser or guarantor of any of the Obligations or against the Mortgaged Property.
|
|
20.6
|
Attorney-In-Fact. Mortgagor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints Agent, or any agent designated by Agent, for so long as this Mortgage remains undischarged of record, as attorney-in-fact of Mortgagor to, upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, execute, acknowledge, seal and deliver all instruments, agreements, deeds, certificates and other documents of every nature and description in order to carry out or implement the exercise of Agent's rights hereunder and under the other Loan Documents.
|
|
21.
|
Foreclosure and Other Remedies. From and after the occurrence of and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Agent may institute an action of foreclosure, or take such other action at law or in equity for the enforcement of this Mortgage and realization on the mortgage security or any other security herein or elsewhere provided for, as the law may allow, and may proceed therein to final judgment and execution for the entire unpaid balance of the indebtedness secured hereby, with interest at the rate(s) stipulated in the Credit Agreement, together with all other sums due in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement, including all sums which may be advanced after the date of this Mortgage, all sums which may have been advanced by the Agent for taxes, water or sewer rents, other lienable charges or claims, insurance or repairs or maintenance of the Mortgaged Property after the date of this Mortgage (including the period after the entry of any judgment in mortgage foreclosure or other judgment entered pursuant to this Mortgage or the Credit Agreement), and all costs of suit, including reasonable counsel fees. From and after the occurrence of and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Mortgagor authorizes Agent at its option to foreclose this Mortgage subject to the rights of any tenants of the Mortgaged Property, and the failure to make any such tenants parties to any such foreclosure proceedings and to foreclose their rights will not be asserted by Mortgagor as a defense to any proceedings instituted by Agent to recover the indebtedness secured hereby or any deficiency remaining unpaid after the foreclosure sale of the Mortgaged Property. Agent may sell the Mortgaged Property either as a whole or in separate parcels as Agent may determine. If the Mortgaged Property is sold as separate parcels, Agent may direct the order in which the parcels are sold. Agent may, from time to time, postpone the sale of all or any portion of the Mortgaged Property by public announcement in accordance with applicable law. Agent or any Lender may be the purchaser at any foreclosure sale of the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof.

[Note: Local law/customary state provisions regarding remedies will be included]
|
22.
|
Contest of Laws. Mortgagor shall have the right to contest by appropriate legal proceedings, but without cost or expense to Agent or any Lender, the validity of any Legal Requirements affecting the Mortgaged Property subject to the provisions of the Credit Agreement and any other Loan Document dealing with the right to contest, but only if compliance may be so contested without: (a) the imposition of any charge, lien or liability against the Mortgaged Property, (b) the loss or suspension of any license, right or permit with respect to the Mortgaged Property, and (c) causing any Default to exist under the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document. Subject to the foregoing, Mortgagor may postpone compliance therewith until the final determination of any such proceedings, provided it shall be prosecuted with due diligence and dispatch, and if any such lien or charge is incurred, Mortgagor may, nevertheless, make the contest and delay compliance, provided Agent is furnished with security satisfactory to Agent in its sole and absolute discretion against any loss or injury by reason of such noncompliance or delay and provided further that the same is and may be done without causing any Default to exist under the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.
|
|
23.

|
|
25.
|
Severability. In case any one or more of the provisions of this Mortgage are held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision hereof. Each of the provisions of every such agreement, document or instrument shall be enforceable by Agent to the fullest extent now or hereafter not prohibited by applicable law.
|
|
26.
|
No Waiver. No consent or waiver, express or implied, by Agent to or of any Default or Event of Default by Mortgagor shall be construed as a consent or waiver to or of any other Default or Event of Default at the same time or upon any future occasion.

|
27.
|
Cross-Collateralization. Mortgagor acknowledges that the Obligations are secured by this Mortgage together with those certain other mortgages, deeds of trust or deeds to secure debt given by certain of the other Borrowers, as applicable, to or for the benefit of Mortgagee (whether one or more, collectively, the "Other Security Instruments") encumbering the real and personal property more particularly described in the Other Security Instruments (such real and personal property, collectively, the "Other Properties"), all as more specifically set forth in the Credit Agreement. Upon the occurrence, and during the continuance of, an Event of Default, Mortgagee shall have the right to institute a proceeding or proceedings for the total or partial foreclosure of this Mortgage and any or all of the Other Security Instruments whether by court action, power of sale or otherwise, under any applicable provision of law, for all of the Obligations and the lien and the security interest created by the Other Security Instruments shall continue in full force and effect without loss of priority as a lien and security interest securing the payment of that portion of the Obligations then due and payable but still outstanding. Mortgagor acknowledges and agrees that the Mortgaged Property and the Other Properties are located in one or more states and/or counties, and therefore Mortgagee shall be permitted to enforce payment of the Obligations and the performance of any term, covenant or condition of the Credit Agreement, the Note, this Mortgage, the Loan Documents or the Other Security Instruments and exercise any and all rights and remedies under the Credit Agreement, the Note, this Mortgage, the other Loan Documents or the Other Security Instruments, as provided by law or at equity, by one or more proceedings, whether contemporaneous, consecutive or both, to be determined by Mortgagee, in its sole discretion, in any one or more of the states or counties in which the Mortgaged Property or any of the Other Properties are located. Neither the acceptance of this Mortgage, the other Loan Documents or the Other Security Instruments nor the enforcement thereof in any one state or county, whether by court action, foreclosure, power of sale or otherwise, shall prejudice or in any way limit or preclude enforcement by court action, foreclosure, power of sale or otherwise, of the Credit Agreement, the Note, this Mortgage, the other Loan Documents, or any Other Security Instruments through one or more additional proceedings in that state or county or in any other state or county. Any and all sums received by Mortgagee or any Lender under the Credit Agreement, the Note, this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents shall be applied to the Obligations in such order and priority as Mortgagee shall determine, in its sole discretion, without regard to any portion of the Loans allocated to any Mortgaged Property or any of the Other Properties or the appraised value of the Mortgaged Property or any of the Other Properties.

|
6.1
|
Prior to Default. So long as (i) no uncured Event of Default exists and (ii) no Default has occurred and is continuing uncured beyond the applicable notice and grace period, if any, in the performance of any obligation, covenant or agreement herein, or in the other Loan Documents, or in the Leases (collectively, a "Continuing Default"): Assignor shall have the right and license to manage and operate the Property and to collect at the time of, but not more than one (1) month prior to, the date provided for the payment thereof under such Lease (except for security deposits and last month's rents taken in the usual course of business), all rents, fees, income and profits arising under the Leases or from the premises described therein and, subject to the provisions of the other Loan Documents, to retain, use and enjoy the same.
|
|
6.2
|
After Default. At any time when a Continuing Default exists, Agent, without in any way waiving such default, may at its option, without notice, and without regard to the adequacy of the security for the Obligations secured hereby and by the Mortgage/Deed of Trust revoke the right and license granted above to Assignor and:
|
|
(i)
|
Authorize and direct the lessees or licensee named in any existing Leases or any other or future lessees, licensees or occupants of the Property, upon receipt from Agent of written notice to the effect that Agent is or the Lenders are then the holder of the Notes, the Mortgage/Deed of Trust and this Assignment and that a Continuing Default exists thereunder, to pay over to Agent all rents, fees, income and profits arising or accruing under the Leases or from the Property and to continue to do so until otherwise notified in writing by Agent. Assignor agrees that every lessee, licensee, and occupant shall have the right to rely upon any such statement and request by Agent that lessee, licensee or occupant shall pay such rents to Agent without any obligation or right to inquire as to whether such Continuing Default actually exists notwithstanding any notice from or claim of Assignor to the contrary and that Assignor shall have no right or claim against lessees, licensees or occupants for any such rent so paid by lessees, licensees or occupants to Agent after such notice to the lessee, licensee or occupant by Agent;
|
|
(ii)
|
Either in person or by agent, with or without bringing any action or proceedings, or by a receiver appointed by a court, take possession of the Property and have, hold, manage, lease, license and operate the same on such terms and for such period of time as Agent may reasonably deem proper and, either with or without taking possession of the Property in its own name, demand, xxx for, or otherwise collect and receive, all rents, fees, income and profits of the Property, including those past due and unpaid, with full power to make from time to time all improvements, alterations, renovations, repairs and replacements thereto or thereof as may be deemed proper by Agent; and
|
|
(iii)
|
Apply such rents, fees, income and profits to the payment of:
|
|
(a)
|
all expenses of managing the Property including, without being limited thereto, the salaries, fees and wages of a managing agent and such other employees as Agent may reasonably deem necessary or desirable, and all expenses of operating and maintaining the Property, including, without being limited thereto, all taxes, charges, claims, assessments, water rents, sewer rents and other liens, and premiums for all insurance which Agent may deem reasonably necessary or desirable, the payment or refund of security deposits, or interest thereon, and the cost of all improvements, alterations, renovations, repairs or replacements, and all expenses incident to taking and retaining possession of the Property; and
|
|
(b)
|
all sums which Assignor is responsible to pay under the Mortgage/Deed of Trust, and the principal sum, interest and indebtedness secured hereby and by the Mortgage/Deed of Trust, and all other Obligations together with all reasonable costs and attorneys' fees, in such order of priority as to any of the items mentioned in this clause (iii) as Agent in its sole discretion may determine, any statute, law, custom, or use to the contrary notwithstanding.
|
The exercise by Agent of the option granted it in this Section 5.2 and the collection of the rents, fees, income and profits and the application thereof as herein provided shall not be considered a waiver by Agent of any Default or Event of Default under the other Loan Documents, or the Leases, or this Assignment.
|
6.3
|
Continuing Effect. Upon payment in full to Agent and the Lenders of the principal sum, interest, indebtedness and other Obligations secured hereby and by the Mortgage/Deed of Trust, this Assignment shall become null and be void and of no effect, but the affidavit of any officer, agent, or attorney of Agent or the Lenders made in good faith showing any part of said principal, interest, indebtedness or other Obligations to remain unpaid or unsatisfied shall be and constitute conclusive evidence of the validity, effectiveness and continuing force of this Assignment and any person may, and is hereby authorized to, rely thereon. The discharge of record of the Mortgage/Deed of Trust dated as of even date given by Assignor to Agent shall constitute a discharge of this Assignment and a release of Agent's and the Lenders' interest in the Leases, rents and fees assigned hereby and the reassignment thereof (without recourse to Agent or any Lender) to Assignor and all those claiming of record by, through or under Assignor without the need for further action by Assignor or Agent.
|
|
6.4
|
No Waiver; Concurrent Rights. Nothing contained in this Assignment and no act done or omitted by Agent pursuant to the powers and rights granted it hereunder shall be deemed to be a waiver by Agent of its rights and remedies hereunder or any one or more of the other Loan Documents, and this Assignment is made and accepted without prejudice to any of the rights and remedies possessed by Agent under the terms of any of the other Loan Documents. The right of Agent to collect said principal sums, interest and indebtedness and to enforce any other security therefor held by it may be exercised by Agent either prior to, simultaneously with, or subsequent to any action taken by it hereunder.
|
|
6.5
|
No Liability. Neither Agent nor any Lender shall be liable for any loss sustained by Assignor resulting from Agent's failure to let the Property after a Continuing Default or from any other act or omission of Agent in managing the Property after a Continuing Default unless such loss is caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Agent. Agent shall not be obligated to perform or discharge, nor does Agent hereby undertake to perform or discharge, any obligation, duty or liability under the Leases, under any ground lease, or under or by reason of this Assignment, and Assignor shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify Agent and each of the Lenders for, and to defend and hold Agent and each of the Lenders harmless from, any and all liability, loss or damage which may or might be incurred under or by reason of this Assignment and from any and all claims and demands whatsoever which may be asserted against Agent or any Lender by reason of any alleged obligations or undertakings on its part to perform or discharge any of the terms, covenants or agreements contained in the Leases or any ground lease. Should Agent or any Lender incur any such liability under the Leases or under or by reason of this Assignment, or in defense of any such claims or demands, the amount thereof, including costs, expenses and attorneys ' fees shall be secured hereby and by the Mortgage/Deed of Trust and by the other collateral for the Obligations and Assignor shall reimburse Agent and the Lenders therefor immediately upon demand and upon the failure of Assignor so to do, Agent may, at its option, declare all sums secured hereby immediately due and payable. It is further understood that this Assignment shall not operate to place responsibility for the control, care, management or repair of said Property upon Agent, nor for the carrying out of any of the terms and conditions of the Leases or any ground lease; nor shall it operate to make Agent responsible or liable for any waste committed on the Property by tenants or any other parties, or for any dangerous or defective condition of the Property, or for any negligence in the management, upkeep, repair or control of said Property resulting in loss or injury or death to any tenant, licensee, employee or stranger. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Agent and the Lenders shall not be indemnified for any liability, loss, or damage on account of, or exculpated from acts of, their own gross negligence or willful misconduct.
|
|
6.6
|
Effect of Foreclosure Deed. Unless Agent otherwise elects in the instance of a Lease which is subordinate to the Mortgage/Deed of Trust and is thus terminated by the foreclosure, upon the issuance of any deed or deeds pursuant to a judicial or non-judicial foreclosure of the Mortgage/Deed of Trust, all right, title and interest of Assignor in and to the Leases shall, by virtue of this instrument and such deed or deeds, thereupon vest in and become the absolute property of the grantee or grantees in such deed or deeds without any further act or assignment by Assignor. Assignor hereby irrevocably appoints Agent and its successors and assigns as its agent and attorney in fact to execute all instruments of assignment for further assurance in favor of such grantee or grantees in such deed or deeds as may be necessary or desirable for such purpose.
|
|
6.7
|
Upon Termination of Lease in Bankruptcy. In the event any lessee under any of the Leases should be the subject of any proceeding under Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code of 1978, as amended from time to time, or any other federal, state or local statute which provides for the possible termination or rejection of such Leases assigned hereby, Assignor covenants and agrees that, if any of such Leases are so terminated or rejected, no settlement for damages shall be made without the prior written consent of Agent, in each instance, and any check in payment of damages for termination or rejection of any such Lease will be made payable to both Assignor and Agent. Assignor hereby assigns its interest in any such payment to Agent and further covenants and agrees that upon the request of Agent after a Continuing Default, Assignor will duly endorse to the order of Agent any such check, the proceeds of which will be applied to the indebtedness secured by this Assignment. Assignor hereby irrevocably appoints Agent and its successors and assigns as its-attorney-in-fact to so endorse any such checks if Assignor does not do so.
|
|
6.8
|
Rights Contained in Mortgage/Deed of Trust. This Assignment is intended to be supplementary to, and not in substitution for, or in derogation of, any assignment of rents to secure the Obligations contained in the Mortgage/Deed of Trust or in any other Loan Document. In the event of any conflict between this Assignment and any of the other Loan Documents, Agent shall have the right from time to time to reasonably determine which provisions shall govern.

|

Any and all sums received by Assignee or any Lender under the Credit Agreement, the Notes, this Assignment and the other Loan Documents shall be applied to the Obligations in such order and priority as Assignee shall determine, in its sole discretion, without regard to any portion of the Loans allocated to any Property or any of the Other Properties or the appraised value of the Property or any of the Other Properties.

To secure the prompt, punctual, and faithful payment and performance of the Obligations of the Borrower to the Agent and the Lenders arising under the Loan Documents, the Assignor hereby assigns, transfers, sets over, pledges and, if applicable, delivers to the Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, all rights of the Assignor under the Assigned Contracts and Permits (as hereinafter defined) and grants to the Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, a continuing security interest in the Assigned Contracts and Permits.

The term "Assigned Contracts and Permits" shall mean all of the contracts, licenses, permits, approvals, agreements and warranties, and all of Assignor's right, title and interest therein, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, and all proceeds and products thereof, and all accounts, contract rights and general intangibles related thereto, which are in any manner related to the Loans and/or the Mortgaged Property owned by Assignor and the improvements thereon. The Assigned Contracts and Permits include all notes receivable, interest rate agreements or hedging agreements now or hereafter owned by Assignor (or in which Assignor has any interest or right). Assignor hereby agrees to enter into Agent's reasonable form of assignments of interest rate agreements or hedging agreements at the time Assignor enters into such agreements.
|
|
3.
|
COVENANTS, WARRANTIES AND REPRESENTATIONS. Assignor covenants with, and warrants and represents to, Agent and Lenders that:
|
|
3.1
|
Assignor is and shall be the owner of the Assigned Contracts and Permits free and clear of all pledges, liens, security interests and other encumbrances of every nature whatsoever except in favor of Agent;
|
|
3.2
|
Assignor has the full right, power and authority to assign, and to grant the pledge of and security interest in, the Assigned Contracts and Permits as herein provided;
|
|
3.3
|
The execution, delivery and performance of this Collateral Assignment by Assignor does not and will not result in the violation of any mortgage, indenture, contract, instrument, agreement, judgment, decree, order, statute, rule or regulation to which Assignor is subject or by which it or any of its property is bound;
|
|
3.4
|
Assignor shall not make any other assignment of, or permit any pledge, lien, security interest or encumbrance to exist with respect to the Assigned Contracts and Permits except in favor of Agent, and Assignor shall not otherwise transfer, assign, sell or exchange its interest in the Assigned Contracts and Permits;
|
|
3.5
|
A true and complete executed counterpart, or certified copy, of each Assigned Contract and Permit which now exists and which is evidenced by a written agreement or document has been delivered to Agent and a true and complete counterpart, or certified copy, of each Assigned Contract and Permit which becomes effective or is issued in the future shall be promptly delivered to Agent;
|
|
3.6
|
Each Assigned Contract and Permit presently in existence is in full force and effect, is valid and enforceable in accordance with its terms, has not been modified, and to Assignor's knowledge, no default exists thereunder on the part of any party thereto. Each Assigned Contract and Permit which comes into existence after the date hereof shall be valid and enforceable in accordance with its terms;
|
|
3.7
|
Without Agent's prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld) in each instance, no Assigned Contract and Permit shall be amended, modified or changed in any material respect, have any of its material terms waived by Assignor, or assigned, cancelled or terminated by Assignor; and
|
|
3.8
|
Assignor shall pay and perform all of its obligations under or with respect to each Assigned Contract and Permit and not permit any default by it to exist with respect thereto. Assignor shall exercise all commercially reasonable efforts necessary to enforce or secure performance by any other party to any Assigned Contract and Permit.
|
|
4.
|
RIGHTS OF ASSIGNOR PRIOR TO DEFAULT. So long as there is no continuing Event of Default, Assignor shall have and may exercise all rights as the owner or holder of the Assigned Contracts and Permits which are lawful and are not inconsistent with the express provisions of the Loan Documents. Immediately upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the right described in the preceding sentence shall cease and terminate, and in such event Agent is hereby expressly and irrevocably authorized, but not required, to exercise every right, option, power or authority inuring to Assignor under any one or more of the Assigned Contracts and Permits as fully as Assignor could itself.
|
|
5.
|
IRREVOCABLE DIRECTION. Assignor hereby irrevocably directs the contracting party to, or grantor or licensor of, any such Assigned Contract and Permit, to the extent not prohibited by either such Assigned Contract and Permit or applicable law, or to the extent permitted under any recognition or other agreement executed by such grantor or licensor, upon demand and after notice from Agent of the occurrence of an Event of Default, to recognize and accept Agent as the holder of such Assigned Contract and Permit for any and all purposes as fully as it would recognize and accept Assignor and the performance of Assignor thereunder. Assignor does hereby constitute and appoint Agent, while this Collateral Assignment remains in force and effect, irrevocably, and with full power of substitution and revocation, as its true and lawful attorney for and in its name, place and stead, after the occurrence and during the continuance of such an Event of Default, to demand and enforce compliance with all the terms and conditions of the Assigned Contracts and Permits and all benefits accrued thereunder, whether at law, in equity or otherwise.
|
|
6.
|
UCC RIGHTS AND REMEDIES. Further, and without limitation of the foregoing rights and remedies, upon and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Agent shall have the rights and remedies of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code, as enacted in the appropriate state(s) for exercising remedies with respect to the Assigned Contracts and Permits, in addition to the rights and remedies otherwise provided for herein or by law or in equity or in any other Loan Document. The Agent shall give Assignor ten (10) days, prior written notice of the time and place of any public sale of any such Assigned Contract and Permit or the time after which any private sale or any other intended disposition is to be made. After deducting all expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement of its rights hereunder, Agent shall cause the proceeds of the Assigned Contracts and Permits to be applied to the Obligations in such order as Agent may determine and Assignor shall remain liable for any deficiency.
|
|
7.
|
INDEMNIFICATION. Assignor hereby agrees to indemnify and to defend and hold Agent and the Lenders harmless against and from all liability, loss, damage and expense, including attorneys' fees, which it may or shall incur by reason of this Collateral Assignment, or by reason of any commercially reasonable action taken in good faith by Agent hereunder or with respect to the Assigned Contracts and Permits, and against and from any and all claims and demands whatsoever which may be asserted against Agent or any Lender by reason of any alleged obligation or undertaking on its part to perform or discharge any of the terms, covenants and conditions contained in any of the Assigned Contracts and Permits and except for any liability, loss, damage, or expense arising from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Agent, Lenders, or the agents of Agent or Lenders. Should Agent or any Lender incur any such liability, loss, damage or expense, the amount thereof (together with interest thereon at the default rate of interest described in the Credit Agreement if such amounts are not paid within five (5) Business Days after demand therefor) shall be payable by Assignor to Agent and the Lenders immediately upon demand, or at the option of Agent, Agent may reimburse itself therefor out of any receipts, rents, income or profits of the Mortgaged Property collected by Agent before the application of such receipts, rents, income or profits to any other Obligations.
|
|
8.
|
AGENT/LENDER NOT OBLIGATED. Nothing contained herein or elsewhere shall operate to obligate, or be construed to obligate, Agent or any Lender to perform any of the terms, covenants or conditions contained in the Assigned Contracts and Permits or otherwise to impose any obligation upon Agent or any Lender with respect to the Assigned Contracts and Permits prior to written notice by Agent to Assignor of Agent's election to assume Assignor's obligations under one or more of the Assigned Contracts and Permits. Prior to written notice from Agent of such election, this Collateral Assignment shall not operate to place upon Agent any responsibility for the operation, control, care, management or repair of the Mortgaged Property or for the payment, performance or observance of any obligation, requirement or condition under any such Assigned Contract and Permit, or under any agreement in respect to any such Assigned Contract and Permit, and the execution of this Collateral Assignment by Assignor shall constitute conclusive evidence that all responsibility for the operation, control, care, management and repair of the Mortgaged Property as well as the payment, performance or observance of any obligation, requirement or condition under the Assigned Contracts and Permits is and shall be that of Assignor, prior to written notice from Agent of such election. If Agent exercises its rights under this Collateral Assignment, it shall only be liable to any of the other parties to the Assigned Contracts and Permits only during the period that it is exercising the rights of Assignor under the Assigned Contracts and Permits, and at all times Assignor retains the obligation to reimburse Agent promptly on demand or otherwise pay when due all obligations incurred in connection with the Assigned Contracts and Permits.
|
|
9.
|
FURTHER ASSURANCES; UCC FILINGS. Assignor agrees to execute and deliver to Agent, at any time or times during which this Collateral Assignment shall be in effect, such further instruments as Agent may deem necessary to make effective this Collateral Assignment, the security interest created hereby and the covenants of Assignor herein contained. To evidence such security interest, at the request of Agent, Assignor shall, in a form reasonably satisfactory to Agent, deliver one or more financing statements, and any continuation thereof, pursuant to the provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code as enacted in the appropriate state(s) for filing with respect to the Assigned Contracts and Permits and shall pay the cost for filing thereof.
|
|
10.
|
NO WAIVER: CUMULATIVE RIGHTS. Failure of Agent to avail itself of any of the terms, covenants, and conditions of this Collateral Assignment for any period of time, or at any time or times, shall not be construed or deemed to be a waiver of any of its rights hereunder. The rights and remedies of Agent under this Collateral Assignment are cumulative and are not in lieu of, but are in addition to, any other rights and remedies which Agent shall have under or by virtue of the Obligations and the Loan Documents. The rights and remedies of Agent hereunder may be exercised from time to time and as often as such exercise is deemed expedient by Agent.
|
|
11.
|
AGENT/LENDER: RIGHT TO ASSIGN. Assignor agrees that upon any sale or transfer by Agent and the Lenders of the Loan Documents and the indebtedness evidenced thereby, or upon any person acquiring the Mortgaged Property or any interest therein, Agent may deliver to the purchaser or transferee the Assigned Contracts and Permits and may assign to such purchaser or transferee the rights of Agent hereunder, who shall thereupon become vested with all powers and rights given to Agent and the Lenders in respect thereto (and subject to Agent's obligations hereunder), and Agent and the Lenders shall be forever relieved and fully discharged from any liability or responsibility thereafter accruing in connection therewith. In no event shall Agent be liable with respect to, or on account of, the Assigned Contracts and Permits, except for the safekeeping of any instruments delivered to Agent pursuant hereto, and Agent shall specifically have no obligation to enforce any rights against any contractor, or grantor or issuer.
|
|
12.
|
TERMINATION AND REASSIGNMENT. Upon full payment and performance of the Obligations (excluding only any liabilities which might arise in the future under the Environmental Indemnity), this Collateral Assignment shall become and be void and of no effect and, in that event, upon the request of Assignor, Agent covenants to execute and deliver to Assignor instruments effective to evidence the termination of this Collateral Assignment and the reassignment (without recourse) to Assignor of the Assigned Contracts and Permits and the rights, title, interest, power and authority assigned herein; provided, however, that any affidavit, certificate or other written statement of any officer of Agent stating that any part of said indebtedness remains unpaid shall be and constitute conclusive evidence of the then validity, effectiveness and continuing force of this Collateral Assignment and any person, firm, or corporation receiving any such affidavit, certificate or statement may, and is hereby authorized to rely thereon.
