2.1.3 Use of Proceeds.

Any excess proceeds may be used for any lawful purpose.

Section 2.2 Interest Rate.

2.2.1 Interest Rate. Subject to the further provisions of this Agreement, including, without limitation, Sections 2.2.2 and 2.2.4 hereof, the Outstanding Principal Balance shall bear interest throughout the Term at the Interest Rate.

2.2.2 Default Rate. In the event that, and for so long as, any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Outstanding Principal Balance and, to the extent permitted by law, overdue interest in respect of the Loan, shall, at Lender’s election, accrue interest at the Default Rate, calculated from the date the Default occurred which led to such Event of Default, without regard to any grace or cure periods contained herein. Interest at the Default Rate shall be paid immediately upon demand, which demand may be made as frequently as Lender shall elect.

2.2.3 Interest Calculation. Interest on the Outstanding Principal Balance shall be calculated by multiplying (a) the actual number of days elapsed in the period for which the calculation is being made by (b) a daily rate based on a three hundred sixty (360) day year (that is, the Interest Rate or the Default Rate, as then applicable, expressed as an annual rate divided by 360) by (c) the Outstanding Principal Balance. The accrual period for calculating interest due on each Monthly Payment Date shall be the Interest Period immediately prior to such Monthly Payment Date.

2.2.4 Usury Savings. The Loan Documents are subject to the express condition that at no time shall Borrowers be required to pay interest on the principal balance of the Loan at a rate which could subject Lender to either civil or criminal liability as a result of being in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate. If by the terms of the Loan Documents, Borrowers are at any time required or obligated to pay interest on the principal balance due hereunder at a rate in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate, the Interest Rate or the Default Rate, as the case may be, shall be deemed to be immediately reduced to the Maximum Legal Rate and all previous payments in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate shall be deemed to have been payments in reduction of principal and not on account of the interest due hereunder. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Lender for the use, forbearance, or detention of the sums due under the Loan, shall, to the extent permitted by any Legal Requirements, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full stated term of the Loan until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Loan does not exceed the Maximum Legal Rate from time to time in effect and applicable to the Loan for so long as the Loan is outstanding.

Section 2.3 Loan Payments; Term of Loan.

2.3.1 Loan Payments Generally.

(a) Borrower shall make a payment to Lender of interest only on the Closing Date for the period from the Closing Date through and including the next succeeding fifth (5^th) day of a calendar month, whether such fifth (5^th) day shall occur in the calendar month in which the Closing Date occurs or in the month immediately succeeding the month in which the Closing Date occurs (unless the Closing Date is the sixth (6^th) day of a calendar month, in which case no such separate payment of interest shall be due). Each interest accrual period (the “Interest Period”) thereafter shall commence on the sixth (6th) day of each calendar month during the Term and shall end on and include the fifth (5th) day of the next occurring calendar month.

(b) On each Monthly Payment Date throughout the Term, Borrower shall make a payment to Lender monthly in arrears of interest accruing on the Outstanding Principal Balance during each Interest Period (each such payment, a “Monthly Debt Service Payment”), which payments shall be applied to accrued and unpaid interest.

(c) Lender shall have the right from time to time prior to a Securitization of the entire Loan, in its sole discretion, upon not less than thirty (30) days prior written notice to Borrower, to change the Monthly Payment Date to a different calendar day each month which is not more than five (5) days earlier nor more than ten (10) days later than the sixth (6th) day of each calendar month; provided, however, that if Lender shall have elected to change the Monthly Payment Date as aforesaid, Lender shall have the option, but not the obligation, to adjust the Interest Period correspondingly.

2.3.2 Payment on Maturity Date. The Loan shall mature on the Maturity Date. Borrower shall pay to Lender on the Maturity Date the Outstanding Principal Balance, all accrued and unpaid interest, the Yield Maintenance Premium, if any, and all other amounts due under the Loan Documents.

2.3.3 Late Payment Charge. If any principal, interest or any other sum due under the Loan Documents, other than the payment of principal due on the Maturity Date, is not paid by Borrower on the date on which it is due, Borrower shall pay to Lender upon demand an amount equal to the lesser of four percent (4%) of such unpaid sum or the maximum amount permitted by any Legal Requirements, in order to defray the expense incurred by Lender in handling and processing such delinquent payment and to compensate Lender for the loss of the use of such delinquent payment. Any such amount shall be secured by the Security Instruments and the other Loan Documents.

2.3.4 Method and Place of Payment.

(a) Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, all payments and prepayments under this Agreement and the Note shall be made to Lender not later than 1:00 P.M., New York City time, on the date when due and shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America in immediately available funds at Lender’s office or at such other place as Lender shall from time to time designate, and any funds received by Lender after such time shall, for all purposes hereof, be deemed to have been paid on the next succeeding Business Day.

(b) Whenever any payment to be made under any Loan Document shall be stated to be due on a day which is not a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be the immediately preceding Business Day.

(c) All payments required to be made by Borrowers under the Loan Documents shall be made irrespective of, and without deduction for, any setoff, claim or counterclaim and shall be made irrespective of any defense thereto.

Section 2.4 Prepayments.

2.4.1 Voluntary Prepayments.

(a) Except as otherwise provided herein, Borrowers shall not have the right to prepay the Loan in whole or in part prior to the Stated Maturity Date. Subject to Sections 2.4.1(b), 2.4.2 and 2.4.3 hereof, on the Prepayment Lockout Expiration Date, and on any Business Day thereafter, Borrowers may, at Borrowers’ option and upon not less than twenty (20) days prior notice to Lender, prepay the Outstanding Principal Balance in whole only with payment of the Yield Maintenance Premium; provided, however, that, subject to Section 2.4.3 hereof, payment of the Yield Maintenance Premium shall not be required if the prepayment occurs on or after the Open Prepayment Date. Any prepayment received by Lender under this Section 2.4.1 shall be accompanied by (a) all interest which would have accrued on the principal amount prepaid through, but not including, the next occurring Monthly Payment Date (or, if such prepayment occurs on a Monthly Payment Date, through, but not including, such Monthly Payment Date), (b) all other sums due and payable under the Loan Documents, and (c) all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with such prepayment.

(b) On the Prepayment Lockout Expiration Date and on any Business Day thereafter, Borrowers may, at Borrowers’ option and upon not less than twenty (20) days prior notice to Lender, prepay the Outstanding Principal Balance in part (x) to effect a Property Release in accordance with Section 2.5 hereof, which amount shall be applied by Lender in accordance with the terms of Section 2.5.1(c) of this Agreement, or (y) in connection with payment of a DSCR/LTV Remedial Payment Amount to effect a Cash Sweep Event Cure under clause (iii) of the definition of “Cash Sweep Event Cure” which amount, Lender shall apply to the Outstanding Principal Balance, Yield Maintenance Premium, and any other interest and fees due Lender.

(c) A notice of prepayment made under Section 2.4.1(a) or Section 2.4.1(b) may be revoked by Borrowers if written notice of such revocation is delivered by Borrowers to Lender on or before the date that is five (5) Business Days prior to the prepayment date set forth in the notice of prepayment. If Borrowers deliver to Lender notice of prepayment and subsequently revoke such notice prior to prepayment, Borrowers shall promptly reimburse Lender for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Lender (including any reasonable attorneys’ fees) due to such revoked notice or otherwise in connection with the anticipated prepayment.

2.4.2 Mandatory Prepayments. On the next occurring Monthly Payment Date following the date on which Lender actually receives a distribution of Net Proceeds, if Lender does not make such Net Proceeds available to Borrower for a Restoration, Lender shall, at its option, apply such Net Proceeds to the prepayment of the Outstanding Principal Balance; provided, however, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Lender may apply such Net Proceeds to the Debt in any order, proportion and priority as Lender may determine in its sole and absolute discretion. Any prepayment received by Lender under this Section 2.4.2 shall be (a) subject to Section 2.4.3 hereof and (b) accompanied by (i) all interest which would have accrued on the principal amount prepaid through, but not including, such Monthly Payment Date, (ii) all other sums due and payable under the Loan Documents, and (iii) all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with such prepayment. Provided that no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, no Yield Maintenance Premium or other prepayment premium or penalty shall be due in connection with any prepayment made pursuant to this Section 2.4.2. In the event that the application of Net Proceeds in respect of any particular Property pursuant to this Section 2.4.2 shall result in a reduction of the Outstanding Principal Balance in an amount greater than sixty percent (60%) of the Allocated Loan Amount of such affected Property, then, subject to Section 2.6 hereof and provided each of the conditions set forth in Section 2.5.1 shall have been satisfied, Borrower shall be entitled to effect a Property Release for such affected Property provided that in lieu of the payments due under Section 2.5.1(c), Borrower shall pay to Lender, and Lender shall have received by wire transfer of immediately available federal funds, an amount equal to the sum of (i) the difference, if any, between one hundred fifteen percent (115%) of the Allocated Loan Amount in respect of such affected Property and the Net Proceeds previously applied pursuant to the first part of this Section 2.4.2, plus (ii) all interest which would have accrued on the principal amount prepaid through, but not including, the next occurring Monthly Payment Date (or, if such prepayment occurs on a Monthly Payment Date, through, but not including, such Monthly Payment Date), plus (iii) all other sums then due and payable under the Loan Documents, plus (iv) all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with such prepayment.

With respect to any Property Release, simultaneously with the closing of such Property Release if all of the conditions set forth in Section 2.5.1 with respect to such Property Release have been satisfied, Lender, at the sole cost and expense of Borrowers, shall execute and deliver to Borrowers the releases, satisfactions, discharges and/or assignments, as applicable and as reasonably requested by Borrowers, of the Security Instruments, the Assignments of Leases and the other Loan Documents which solely relate to the Property or Properties (and if applicable, the applicable Borrower and/or Guarantor) to be released. Upon the closing of any Property Release, all references herein or in any of the other Loan Documents to the term “Property” shall be deemed to exclude the Property or Properties released.

Section 2.6 REMIC Test on Property Release. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, if the Loan is included in a REMIC Trust and (a) any Property or any portion of any Property is sought to be released from the Lien of any Security Instrument, whether in connection with the release of any individual Property pursuant to Section 2.5, a Casualty or Condemnation or otherwise, and (b) immediately after any such release the ratio of the unpaid principal balance of the Loan to the value of the remaining Properties (but, in the case of a Casualty or Condemnation, taking into account any proposed Restoration of any remaining Property) is greater than one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) (based solely on real property and excluding any personal property or going concern value) (such value to be determined, in Lender’s sole discretion, by any commercially reasonable method permitted to a REMIC Trust, it being understood that Lender shall not require a new or updated appraisal to make such determination so long as there is another commercially reasonable valuation method available to Lender, which may include a buyer’s purchase price in the case of a contemporaneous arm’s length sale and assumption of the Loan or a broker’s price opinion so long as such method is a commercially reasonable valuation method permitted to a REMIC Trust, as determined in Lender’s sole discretion), the Outstanding Principal Balance must first be paid down by a “qualified amount” as such term is defined in Internal Revenue Service Revenue Procedure 2010-30, as the same may be modified, supplemented, superseded or amended from time to time (regardless of whether Borrowers or Lender actually receive or are entitled to receive any related Net Proceeds in the case of a Casualty or Condemnation), unless Lender receives an opinion of counsel that, if the foregoing prepayment is not made, the applicable REMIC Trust will neither fail to maintain its status as a “real estate mortgage investment conduit” within the meaning of Section 860D of the Code or be subject to any tax, in either case, as a result of such release. If and to the extent the release is in connection with a Casualty or Condemnation, and if Borrowers shall have otherwise satisfied each of the conditions to release of Net Proceeds as set forth in Section 5.3, only such amount of the Net Proceeds then held or controlled by Lender, if any, in excess of the “qualified amount” required to pay down the principal balance of the Loan may be released for purposes of Restoration or released as otherwise expressly provided in Section 5.3. Any prepayment made under this Section 2.6 shall be accompanied by payment of the Yield Maintenance Premium, except that (i) subject to Section 2.4.3, no Yield Maintenance Premium or other prepayment fee or penalty shall be due in connection with any prepayment made on or after the Open Prepayment Date and (ii) so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, no Yield Maintenance Premium or other prepayment fee or penalty shall be due in connection with any such prepayment made by reason of a release in connection with a Casualty or Condemnation. Borrowers shall pay or, if Borrower fails to pay, reimburse Lender upon receipt of notice from Lender, for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred by Lender in connection with confirming compliance with or enforcing the terms and provisions of this Section 2.6.

Article 3: REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

Section 3.1 Borrower Representations. Each of the representations and warranties made by Borrower in this Article 3 shall be deemed to be made separately by each Borrower; provided, however, and subject to the terms of this Agreement, the liability for any inaccuracies in such representations and warranties shall be joint and several among the Borrowers. Each Borrower represents and warrants to Lender that:

3.1.1 Organization. Each Borrower and each SPC Party is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing with full power and authority to own its assets and conduct its business, and is duly qualified in all jurisdictions in which the ownership or lease of its property or the conduct of its business requires such qualification, except where the failure to be so qualified would not have a Material Adverse Effect, and each Borrower has taken all necessary action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents by it, and has the power and authority to execute, deliver and perform under the Loan Documents and all the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents.

3.1.2 Proceedings. The Loan Documents have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by each Borrower and constitute a legal, valid and binding obligation of each Borrower, enforceable against each Borrower in accordance with their respective terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

3.1.3 No Conflicts. The execution and delivery of the Loan Documents by each Borrower and the performance of its Obligations under the Loan Documents will not conflict with any provision of any law or regulation to which Borrower is subject, or conflict with, result in a breach of, or constitute a default under, any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any of any Borrower’s organizational documents or any agreement or instrument to which any Borrower is a party or by which it is bound, or any order or decree applicable to Borrower, or result in the creation or imposition of any Lien on any of any Borrower’s assets or property (other than pursuant to the Loan Documents).

3.1.4 Litigation. There is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation pending or, to Borrowers’ knowledge, threatened against any Borrower, any SPC Party, Guarantor, Property Manager, Intermediate Manager or any Property in any court or by or before any other Governmental Authority which, if adversely determined, might have a Material Adverse Effect.

3.1.5 Agreements. No Borrower is in default with respect to any order or decree of any court or any order, regulation or demand of any Governmental Authority, which default might have a Material Adverse Effect. No Borrower is in default in the performance, observance or fulfillment of any of the obligations, covenants or conditions contained in any Permitted Encumbrance or any other agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which it or any Property is bound which would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

3.1.6 Consents. No consent, approval, authorization or order of any court or Governmental Authority is required for the execution, delivery and performance by any Borrower of, or compliance by such Borrower with, the Loan Documents or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, other than those which have been obtained by each Borrower.

3.1.7 Title. Each Borrower has good, marketable and insurable fee simple title to the real property comprising part of its respective Property and good title to the balance of the Property owned by it, free and clear of all Liens whatsoever except the Permitted Encumbrances. None of the Permitted Encumbrances, individually or in the aggregate, (a) materially interfere with the benefits of the security intended to be provided by the Loan Documents, (b) materially and adversely affect the value of the Property, (c) materially impair the use or operation of the Property, or (d) impair Borrower’s ability to pay its Obligations in a timely manner. The Security Instruments, when properly recorded in the appropriate records, together with any Uniform Commercial Code financing statements required to be filed in connection therewith, will create (i) a valid, first priority, perfected Lien on Borrower’s interest in the Properties, subject only to Permitted Encumbrances, and (ii) perfected security interests in and to, and perfected collateral assignments of, all personalty (including the Leases) in which a security interest can be perfected by filing the Security Instruments and/or a financing statement, all in accordance with the terms thereof, in each case subject only to the Permitted Encumbrances. There are no mechanics’, materialman’s or other similar Liens or claims which have been filed for work, labor or materials affecting any of the Properties which are or may become Liens prior to, or equal or coordinate with, the Lien of the Security Instruments.

3.1.8 No Plan Assets. No Borrower is an “employee benefit plan,” as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA, subject to Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, and none of the assets of Borrower constitutes or will constitute “plan assets” of one or more such plans within the meaning of 29 C.F.R. Section 2510.3-101. Compliance by each Borrower with the provisions hereof will not involve any Prohibited Transaction. Neither Guarantor nor any Borrower has any pension, profit sharing, stock option, insurance or other arrangement or plan for employees covered by Title IV of ERISA, and no “Reportable Event” as defined in ERISA has occurred and is now continuing with respect to any such plan. The performance by each Borrower of its obligations under the Loan Documents and each Borrower’s conducting of its operations do not violate any provisions of ERISA. In addition, (a) Borrower is not a “governmental plan” within the meaning of Section 3(32) of ERISA, (b) transactions by or with any Borrower are not subject to any state statute or regulation regulating investments of, or fiduciary obligations with respect to, governmental plans within the meaning of Section 2(32) of ERISA which is similar to the provisions of Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code currently in effect, which prohibit or otherwise restrict the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and (c) none of any Borrower, Guarantor or ERISA Affiliate is as of the date hereof, or has been at any time within the two (2) years preceding the date hereof, an employer required to contribute to any Multiemployer Plan or Multiple Employer Plan, or a “contributing sponsor” (as such term is defined in Section 4001 of ERISA) in any Multiemployer Plan or Multiple Employer Plan; and none of any Borrower, Guarantor or any ERISA Affiliate has any contingent liability with respect to any post-retirement “welfare benefit plan” (as such term is defined in ERISA) except as disclosed to Lender in writing. For purposes of this Section 3.1.8, Borrowers shall be entitled to assume that no source of funds used to make the Loan constitutes “plan assets” within the meaning of Section 3(42) of ERISA.

3.1.9 Compliance. To Borrower’s knowledge, except as otherwise disclosed in writing to Lender in the zoning reports prepared by Xxxxxx Consulting Group and delivered to Lender prior to the closing of the Loan (collectively, the “Zoning Reports”), Borrowers and the Properties and the use thereof currently comply in all material respects with all applicable Legal Requirements, including parking, building and zoning and land use laws, ordinances, regulations and codes. No Borrower is in default or violation of any order, writ, injunction, decree or demand of any Governmental Authority, the violation of which might have a Material Adverse Effect. There has not been committed by Borrower or, to Borrower’s knowledge, any other Person in occupancy of or involved with the operation or use of any Property any act or omission which may give any Governmental Authority the right to cause Borrower to forfeit the Property or any part thereof or any monies paid in performance of Borrowers’ Obligations under any of the Loan Documents. Except as otherwise disclosed to Lender in the Zoning Reports, in the event that all or any part of the Improvements are destroyed or damaged, said Improvements can be legally reconstructed to their condition prior to such damage or destruction, and thereafter exist for the same use without violating any zoning or other ordinances applicable thereto existing as of the date hereof and without the necessity of obtaining any variances or special permits. No legal proceedings are pending or, to the knowledge of any Borrower, threatened with respect to the zoning of any Property. Neither the zoning nor any other right to construct, use or operate any Property is in any way dependent upon or related to any property other than such Property. The use being made of each Property is in conformity with the certificate of occupancy issued for such Property and all other restrictions, covenants and conditions affecting the Property.

3.1.10 Financial Information. All financial data, including the statements of cash flow and income and operating expense, that have been delivered to Lender in respect of Borrowers and the Properties (a) are true, complete and correct in all material respects, (b) accurately represent the financial condition of each Property as of the date of such reports, and (c) have been prepared in accordance with sound accounting principles throughout the periods covered. No Borrower has any contingent liabilities, liabilities for taxes, unusual forward or long-term commitments or unrealized or anticipated losses from any unfavorable commitments that are known to any Borrower and reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect, except as referred to or reflected in said financial statements. Since the date of the financial statements, there has been no material adverse change in the financial condition, operations or business of any Borrowers or any of the Properties from that set forth in said financial statements.

3.1.11 Condemnation. Except as set forth in the Zoning Reports delivered to Lender on or prior to the date hereof, no Condemnation or other proceeding has been commenced or, to Borrowers’ knowledge, is contemplated with respect to all or any portion of any of the Properties or for the relocation of roadways providing access to any of the Properties.

3.1.12 Easements; Utilities and Public Access. All covenants, restrictions or agreements of record relating to the construction, operation or use of the Property and all easements, cross easements, licenses, air rights and rights-of-way or other similar property interests (collectively, “Easements”), if any, necessary for the full utilization of the Improvements for their intended purposes have been obtained, are described in the Title Insurance Policy and, to Borrower’s knowledge, are in full force and effect without default by any party thereunder. To Borrower’s knowledge, there are no covenants, restrictions or agreements of record relating to the construction, operation or use of the Property not described in the Title Insurance Policy. Each Property has rights of access to public ways and is served by water, sewer, sanitary sewer and storm drain facilities adequate to service the Property for its intended uses. All public utilities necessary or convenient to the full use and enjoyment of each Property are, to Borrower’s knowledge, located in the public right-of-way abutting the Property, and all such utilities are connected so as to serve the Property without passing over other property absent a valid easement. All roads necessary for the use of each Property for its current purpose have been completed and dedicated to public use and accepted by all Governmental Authorities.

3.1.13 Separate Lots. To Borrower’s knowledge, each Property is comprised of one or more parcels which constitute separate tax lots and do not constitute a portion of any other tax lot not a part of such Property.

3.1.14 Taxes and Assessments. All Taxes and governmental assessments owing in respect of each Property have been paid or an escrow of funds in an amount sufficient to cover such payments has been established hereunder. There are no pending or, to Borrower’s knowledge, proposed special or other assessments for public improvements or otherwise affecting any Property, nor are there any contemplated improvements to any Property that may result in such special or other assessments.

3.1.15 Enforceability. The Loan Documents are not subject to any right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense by any Borrower, including the defense of usury, nor would the operation of any of the terms of the Loan Documents, or the exercise of any right thereunder, render the Loan Documents unenforceable (subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws affecting creditor’s rights and principles of equity), and no Borrower has asserted any right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense with respect thereto.

3.1.16 Assignment of Leases. The Assignment of Leases creates a valid assignment of, or a valid security interest in, certain rights under the Leases, subject only to a license granted to Borrower to exercise certain rights and to perform certain obligations of the lessor under the Leases, including the right to operate the Property. No Person other than Lender has any interest in or assignment of the Leases or any portion of the Rents due and payable or to become due and payable thereunder.

3.1.17 Insurance. Borrower has obtained and delivered, or has caused to be obtained and delivered, to Lender certificates evidencing all of the Policies, with all premiums paid as they become due, reflecting the insurance coverages, amounts and other requirements set forth in this Agreement.

The amount of such business income insurance shall be determined prior to the date hereof and at least once each year thereafter based on Borrower’s reasonable estimate of the Gross Revenue from the Property, as reduced to reflect non-continuing expenses, for the succeeding eighteen (18) month period. Subject to Section 5.2.3(b), all proceeds payable to Lender pursuant to this subsection shall be held by Lender and shall be applied to the Obligations secured by the Loan Documents from time to time due and payable hereunder and under the Note; provided, however, that nothing herein contained shall be deemed to relieve Borrower of its Obligations to pay the Debt on the respective dates of payment provided for in the Loan Documents except to the extent such amounts are actually paid out of the proceeds of such business income insurance;

(c) Any blanket insurance Policy shall be subject to Lender’s approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, and shall provide the same protection as would a separate Policy insuring only the Property in compliance with the provisions of Section 5.1.1(a). Lender shall have determined based on a review of the schedule of locations and values that the amount of such coverage is sufficient in light of the other risks and properties insured under the blanket policy. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, following a change in Control of Pool II Holdco in accordance with the terms of Section 8.2(c) hereof, Borrower shall be permitted to satisfy compliance with the provisions of Section 5.1.1(a) through the provision of insurance certificates for its blanket insurance Policy (and upon the written request of Lender, certification letters from Borrower and Borrower’s insurance broker attesting to the accuracy of the certificates of insurance regarding the amounts of insurance, perils insured and applicable deductibles).

(d) All Policies of insurance provided for or contemplated by Section 5.1.1(a) shall name Borrower as a named insured and, in the case of liability coverages (except for the Policies referenced in Sections 5.1.1(a)(v) and (viii)) shall name Lender and its successors and/or assigns as the additional insured, as its interests may appear, and in the case of property insurance coverages, including but not limited to boiler and machinery, terrorism, flood and earthquake insurance, shall contain a standard non-contributing mortgagee/lender’s loss payable clause in favor of Lender providing that the loss thereunder shall be payable to Lender.

(e) All property insurance Policies provided for in Section 5.1.1(a) shall:

(i) provide that no act or negligence of Borrower or any other insured under the Policy, or failure to comply with the provisions of any Policy, which might otherwise result in a forfeiture of the insurance or any part thereof, or foreclosure or similar action, shall in any way affect the validity or enforceability of the insurance insofar as Lender is concerned;

(ii) provide that the Policy shall not be canceled without at least thirty (30) days’ written notice to Lender, except ten (10) days’ notice for non-payment of Insurance Premiums and, if obtainable by Borrower using commercially reasonable efforts, shall not be materially changed (other than to increase the coverage provided thereby) without such a thirty (30) day notice; and

(iii) not contain any provision that would make Lender liable for any Insurance Premiums thereon or subject to any assessments thereunder, except that Lender is permitted to make payments to effect the continuation of such Policy upon notice of cancellation due to non-payment of Insurance Premiums pursuant to the mortgagee clause required herein.

(f) If at any time Lender is not in receipt of written evidence that all insurance required hereunder is in full force and effect, or Borrower shall fail to deliver certificates of insurance and, if requested by Lender, other documentation evidencing the Policies, evidence of payment and any other information required by Section 5.1.1(b), no less than ten (10) days prior to the expiration date of any Policies, Lender shall have the right, without notice to Borrower, to take such action as Lender deems necessary to protect its interest in the Property, including the obtaining of such insurance coverage as Lender in its sole discretion deems appropriate and all Insurance Premiums incurred by Lender in connection with such action or in obtaining such insurance and keeping it in effect shall be paid by Borrower to Lender upon demand and until paid shall be secured by the Security Instruments and shall bear interest at the Default Rate. Borrower shall promptly forward to Lender a copy of each written notice received by Borrower of any modification, reduction or cancellation of any of the Policies or of any of the coverages afforded under any of the Policies.

(g) In the event of foreclosure of any of the Security Instruments or other transfer of title to the Property in extinguishment in whole or in part of the Obligations, all right, title and interest of Borrower in and to the Policies that are not blanket Policies then in force concerning the Property and all proceeds payable thereunder shall thereupon vest in the purchaser at such foreclosure or Lender or other transferee in the event of such other transfer of title.

(h) If any of the all-risk/special form property, rental loss and/or business interruption, commercial general liability or umbrella Policies include any exclusions for loss, cost, damage or liability caused by “terrorism” or “terrorist acts” (as defined by then current TRIPRA provided TRIPRA continues to cover foreign and domestic acts), Borrower shall obtain and maintain terrorism coverage to cover such exclusion(s) from a carrier which otherwise satisfies the rating criteria specified in Section 5.1.2 (a “Qualified Carrier”) or, in the event that such terrorism coverage is not available from a Qualified Carrier, Borrower shall obtain such terrorism coverage from the highest rated insurance company commercially available providing such terrorism coverage.

5.1.2 Insurance Company. All Policies required pursuant to Section 5.1.1(a) (a) shall be issued by companies authorized to do business in the State with a financial strength and claims paying ability rating of “A” or better by S&P; provided, however, if the insurance is provided with multiple insurers, no less than 75% will maintain the rating of A or better by S&P (or its equivalent) with the remaining insurers maintaining no less than BBB+ by S&P (or its equivalent); (b) shall, with respect to the property, rental loss and/or business interruption, commercial general liability and umbrella Policies, contain a waiver of subrogation against Lender; (c) shall contain such provisions as Lender deems reasonably necessary or desirable to protect its interest including endorsements providing that neither Borrower, Lender nor any other party shall be a co-insurer under said Policies; and (d) shall be satisfactory in form and substance to Lender and shall be approved by Lender as to amounts, form, risk coverage, deductibles, loss payees and insureds, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If requested by Lender, complete copies of the Policies shall be delivered to Lender, at 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx, 0^xx Xxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000, Attention: Xxxxxx XxXxxxxxx, with respect to all renewal Policies, within thirty (30) days after the effective date thereof; provided, however, that if complete copies of the current Policies are not available on the date of request, Borrower shall deliver to Lender documentation acceptable to Lender evidencing such Policies within five (5) days and shall deliver to Lender complete copies of such Policies within ten (10) days after such Policies are available. Borrower shall pay the Insurance Premiums as the same become due and payable and shall furnish to Lender evidence of the renewal of each of the Policies with receipts for the payment of the Insurance Premiums or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Lender (provided, however, that Borrower shall not be required to pay such Insurance Premiums nor furnish such evidence of payment to Lender in the event that the amounts required to pay such Insurance Premiums have been deposited into the Insurance Account pursuant to Section 6.4 hereof). In addition to the insurance coverages described in Section 5.1.1(a) above, Borrower shall obtain such other insurance as may from time to time be reasonably required by Lender in order to protect its interests. Within thirty (30) days after request by Lender, Borrower shall obtain such increases in the amounts of coverage required hereunder as may be reasonably requested by Lender, taking into consideration changes in the value of money over time, changes in liability laws, changes in prudent customs and practices, and the like.

Section 5.2 Casualty and Condemnation.

5.2.1 Casualty. If the Property shall sustain a Casualty, Borrower shall give prompt notice of such Casualty to Lender and shall promptly commence and diligently prosecute to completion the repair and restoration of the Property as nearly as possible to the condition the Property was in immediately prior to such Casualty (a “Restoration”) and otherwise in accordance with Section 5.3, regardless of whether Insurance Proceeds are available or made available, it being understood, however, that Borrower shall not be obligated to restore the Property to the precise condition of the Property prior to such Casualty provided the Property is restored, to the extent practicable, to be of at least equal value and of substantially the same character as prior to the Casualty. Borrower shall pay all costs of such Restoration whether or not such costs are covered by insurance. Lender may, but shall not be obligated to, submit proof of loss if not submitted promptly by Borrower. In the event of a Casualty where the loss does not exceed the Restoration Threshold, Borrower may settle and adjust such claim; provided that (a) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and (b) such adjustment is carried out in a commercially reasonable and timely manner. In the event of a Casualty where the loss exceeds the Restoration Threshold or if an Event of Default then exists, Borrower may settle and adjust such claim only with the prior written consent of Lender (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and Lender shall have the opportunity to participate, at Borrower’s cost, in any such adjustments; provided, however, if Borrower fails to settle and adjust such claim within sixty (60) days after the Casualty, Lender shall have the right to settle and adjust such claim at Borrower’s cost and without Borrower’s consent (provided that if Borrower has commenced the settlement and adjustment of such claim within the sixty (60) day period after the Casualty and thereafter diligently pursued the same, Lender shall not exercise such right to settle and adjust the claim until one hundred eighty (180) days after the Casualty so long as during the entirety of such period no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and Borrower shall continue to diligently pursue the settlement and adjustment of such claim). Notwithstanding any Casualty, Borrower shall continue to pay the Debt at the time and in the manner provided for its payment in the Note and in this Agreement.

5.2.2 Condemnation. Borrower shall give Lender prompt notice of any actual or threatened Condemnation by any Governmental Authority of all or any part of the Property and shall deliver to Lender a copy of any and all papers served in connection with such proceedings. Provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, in the event of a Condemnation where the amount of the taking does not exceed the Restoration Threshold, Borrower may settle and compromise such Condemnation; provided that the same is effected in a commercially reasonable and timely manner. In the event a Condemnation where the amount of the taking exceeds the Restoration Threshold or if an Event of Default then exists, Borrower may settle and compromise the Condemnation only with the prior written consent of Lender (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and Lender shall have the opportunity to participate, at Borrower’s cost, in any litigation and settlement discussions in respect thereof and Borrower shall from time to time deliver to Lender all instruments requested by Lender to permit such participation. Borrower shall, at its expense, diligently prosecute any such proceedings, and shall consult with Lender, its attorneys and experts, and cooperate with them in the carrying on or defense of any such proceedings. Notwithstanding any Condemnation, Borrower shall continue to pay the Debt at the time and in the manner provided for its payment in the Note and in this Agreement. Lender shall not be limited to the interest paid on the Award by any Governmental Authority but shall be entitled to receive out of the Award interest at the rate or rates provided herein or in the Note. If the Property or any portion thereof is taken by any Governmental Authority, Borrower shall promptly commence and diligently prosecute the Restoration of the Property, regardless of whether an Award is available or made available, and otherwise comply with the provisions of Section 5.3. If the Property is sold, through foreclosure or otherwise, prior to the receipt by Lender of the Award, Lender shall have the right, whether or not a deficiency judgment on the Note shall have been sought, recovered or denied, to receive the Award, or a portion thereof sufficient to pay the Debt.

5.2.3 Casualty Proceeds.

(a) Subject to Section 5.2.3(b), payments received on account of the business interruption insurance specified in Subsection 5.1.1(a)(iii) above shall be deposited directly into the Casualty and Condemnation Account. Notwithstanding the last sentence of Section 5.1.1(a)(iii) above, and provided that no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, proceeds received by Lender on account of business or rental interruption or other loss of income insurance specified in Section 5.1.1(a)(iii) above shall be deposited by Lender into the Cash Management Account (in installments relating to the relevant period) to the extent such proceeds (or a portion thereof) reflect a replacement for lost Rents for the relevant period, as determined by Lender in good faith, and such proceeds shall be applied by Lender in accordance with Section 6.11 hereof. All other such proceeds not reflecting a replacement for lost Rents shall be held by Lender and disbursed in accordance with Section 5.3 hereof.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if in connection with a Casualty any insurance carrier makes a payment under a property insurance Policy that Borrower proposes be treated as business or rental interruption insurance, then, notwithstanding any designation (or lack of designation) by the insurance carrier as to the purpose of such payment, as between Lender and Borrower, such payment shall not be treated as business or rental interruption Insurance Proceeds unless Borrower has demonstrated to Lender’s satisfaction that the remaining Net Proceeds that will be received from the property insurance carriers are sufficient to pay one hundred percent (100%) of the cost of fully restoring the Improvements or, if such Net Proceeds are to be applied repay the Loan in accordance with the terms hereof, that such remaining Net Proceeds will be sufficient to pay off the Debt in full.

Section 5.3 Delivery of Net Proceeds.

5.3.1 Minor Casualty or Condemnation. If a Casualty or Condemnation has occurred to the Property and the Net Proceeds shall be less than the Restoration Threshold and the costs of completing the Restoration shall be less than the Restoration Threshold, and provided no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and that the condition in Section 2.6 hereof has been satisfied, the Net Proceeds will be disbursed by Lender to Borrower. Promptly after receipt of the Net Proceeds, Borrower shall commence and satisfactorily complete with due diligence the Restoration in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. If any Net Proceeds are received by Borrower and may be retained by Borrower pursuant to the terms hereof, such Net Proceeds shall, until completion of the Restoration, be held for the benefit of Lender and shall be segregated from other funds of Borrower to be used to pay for the cost of Restoration in accordance with the terms hereof.

5.3.2 Major Casualty or Condemnation.

(a) If a Casualty or Condemnation has occurred to any Property and the Net Proceeds are equal to or greater than the Restoration Threshold or the costs of completing the Restoration is equal to or greater than the Restoration Threshold, Lender shall make the Net Proceeds available to Borrower for the Restoration, provided that each of the following conditions precedent are satisfied:

(i) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing;

(ii) (A) in the event the Net Proceeds consists of Insurance Proceeds received in connection with a Casualty, then (1) less than twenty-five percent (25%) of the total floor area of the Improvements at the Property has been damaged, destroyed or rendered unusable as a result of such Casualty and (2) Legal Requirements permit the restoration of the damaged, destroyed or unusable Improvements at the Property to the same configuration and occupancy that existed immediately preceding such Casualty or (B) in the event the Net Proceeds are an Award received in connection with a Condemnation, then less than ten percent (10%) of the land constituting the Property is taken, and such land is located along the perimeter or periphery of the Property, and no portion of the Improvements (other than any parking lot area, provided that without such area the Property will still comply with all applicable zoning requirements) is the subject of such Condemnation;

(iii) intentionally omitted;

(iv) the Franchise Agreement, the Intermediate Management Agreement, the Property Management, the Beverage Concession Agreement (if applicable), the Beverage Management Agreement (if applicable) and the REA shall remain in full force and effect during and after completion of the Restoration, notwithstanding the occurrence of such Casualty or Condemnation;

(v) intentionally omitted;

(vi) Borrower shall commence the Restoration as soon as reasonably practicable (but in no event later than ninety (90) days after such Casualty or Condemnation, whichever the case may be, occurs) and shall diligently pursue the same to satisfactory completion;

(vii) Lender shall be reasonably satisfied that any operating deficits and all payments of principal and interest under the Note will be paid during the period required for Restoration from (A) the Net Proceeds, or (B) other funds of Borrower;

(viii) Lender shall be reasonably satisfied that the Restoration will be completed on or before the earliest to occur of (A) the date six (6) months prior to the Stated Maturity Date, (B) the earliest date required for such completion under the terms of any Lease, (C) such time as may be required under applicable Legal Requirements in order to repair and restore the Property to the condition it was in immediately prior to such Casualty or Condemnation, as applicable, or (D) the expiration of the insurance coverage referred to in Section 5.1.1(a)(iii), without giving effect to any extended period of indemnity endorsement in respect of such coverage;

(ix) the Property and the use thereof after the Restoration will be in compliance with and permitted under all applicable Legal Requirements;

(x) the Restoration shall be done and completed by Borrower in an expeditious and diligent fashion and in compliance with all applicable Legal Requirements;

(xi) such Casualty or Condemnation, as applicable, does not result in the loss of access to the Property or the related Improvements;

(xii) Borrower shall deliver to Lender a signed, detailed budget approved in writing by Borrower’s architect or engineer stating the entire cost of completing the Restoration, which budget shall be acceptable to Lender in its reasonable discretion;

(xiii) the Net Proceeds, together with any cash or cash equivalent deposited by Borrower with Lender are sufficient in Lender’s reasonable discretion to cover the cost of the Restoration;

(xiv) the Debt Service Coverage Ratio, after giving effect to the Restoration, shall not be less than 1.35:1.00;

(xv) the Loan to Value Ratio, after giving effect to the Restoration, shall not be greater than sixty-five percent (65%); and

(xvi) the condition set forth in Section 2.6 hereof shall have been satisfied.

(b) The Net Proceeds shall be paid directly to Lender for deposit into the Casualty and Condemnation Account and, until disbursed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5.3.2, shall constitute additional security for the Obligations. The Net Proceeds shall be disbursed by Lender to, or as directed by, Borrower from time to time during the course of the Restoration, upon receipt of evidence satisfactory to Lender that (i) all requirements set forth in Section 5.3.2(a) have been satisfied, (ii) all materials installed and work and labor performed (except to the extent that they are to be paid for out of the requested disbursement) in connection with the Restoration have been paid for in full, and (iii) there exist no notices of pendency, stop orders, mechanics’ or materialman’s liens or notices of intention to file same, or any other liens or encumbrances of any nature whatsoever on the Property arising out of the Restoration which have not either been fully bonded to the satisfaction of Lender and discharged of record or in the alternative fully insured to the satisfaction of Lender by the title company issuing the Title Insurance Policy.

(c) All plans and specifications required in connection with the Restoration shall be subject to the prior written approval of Lender (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) and an independent architect selected by Lender (the “Casualty Consultant”). The plans and specifications shall require that the Restoration be completed in a first-class workmanlike manner at least equivalent to the quality and character of the original work in the Improvements (provided, however, that in the case of a partial Condemnation, the Restoration shall be done to the extent reasonably practicable after taking into account the consequences of such partial Condemnation), so that upon completion thereof, the Property shall be at least equal in value and general utility to the Property prior to the Casualty or Condemnation, as applicable; it being understood, however, that Borrower shall not be obligated to restore the Property to the precise condition of the Property prior to such Casualty or Condemnation, as applicable, provided the Property is restored, to the extent practicable, to be of at least equal value and of substantially the same character as prior to the Casualty or Condemnation, as applicable. Borrower shall restore all Improvements such that when they are fully restored and/or repaired, such Improvements and their contemplated use fully comply with all applicable material Legal Requirements. The identity of the contractors, subcontractors and materialmen engaged in the Restoration, as well as the contracts under which they have been engaged, shall be subject to the approval of Lender (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) and the Casualty Consultant. All reasonable, out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with recovering, holding and advancing the Net Proceeds for the Restoration, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements and the Casualty Consultant’s fees and disbursements, shall be paid by Borrower.

(d) In no event shall Lender be obligated to make disbursements of the Net Proceeds in excess of an amount equal to the costs actually incurred from time to time for work in place as part of the Restoration, as certified by the Casualty Consultant, less the Casualty Retainage. The term “Casualty Retainage” shall mean, as to each contractor, subcontractor or materialman engaged in the Restoration, an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the costs actually incurred for work in place as part of the Restoration, as certified by the Casualty Consultant, until the Restoration has been completed. The Casualty Retainage shall in no event, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above in this Section 5.3.2(d), be less than the amount actually held back by Borrower from contractors, subcontractors and materialmen engaged in the Restoration. The Casualty Retainage shall not be released until the Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender that the Restoration has been completed in accordance with the provisions of this Article 5 and that all approvals necessary for the re-occupancy and use of the Property have been obtained from all appropriate Governmental Authorities, and Lender receives evidence satisfactory to Lender that the costs of the Restoration have been paid in full or will be paid in full out of the Casualty Retainage; provided, however, that Lender shall release the portion of the Casualty Retainage being held with respect to any contractor, subcontractor or materialman engaged in the Restoration as of the date upon which (i) the Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender that such contractor, subcontractor or materialman has satisfactorily completed all work and has supplied all materials in accordance with the provisions of such contractor’s, subcontractor’s or materialman’s contract, (ii) the contractor, subcontractor or materialman delivers the lien waivers and evidence of payment in full of all sums due to the contractor, subcontractor or materialman as may be reasonably requested by Lender or by the title company issuing the Title Insurance Policy, and (iii) Lender receives an endorsement to the Title Insurance Policy insuring the continued priority of the Lien of the Security Instruments and evidence of payment of any premium payable for such endorsement. If required by Lender, the release of any such portion of the Casualty Retainage shall be approved by the surety company, if any, which has issued a payment or performance bond with respect to the contractor, subcontractor or materialman.

(e) Lender shall not be obligated to make disbursements of the Net Proceeds more frequently than once every calendar month.

(f) If at any time the Net Proceeds or the undisbursed balance thereof shall not, in the reasonable opinion of Lender in consultation with the Casualty Consultant, be sufficient to pay in full the balance of the costs which are estimated by the Casualty Consultant to be incurred in connection with the completion of the Restoration, Borrower shall deposit the deficiency (the “Net Proceeds Deficiency”) with Lender (for deposit into the Casualty and Condemnation Account) before any further disbursement of the Net Proceeds shall be made. The Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited with Lender shall be deposited by Lender into the Casualty and Condemnation Account and shall be disbursed for costs actually incurred in connection with the Restoration on the same conditions applicable to the disbursement of the Net Proceeds, and until so disbursed pursuant to this Section 5.3.2 shall constitute additional security for the Obligations.

(g) Provided no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the excess, if any, of the Net Proceeds and the remaining balance, if any, of the Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited with Lender after the Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender that the Restoration has been completed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5.3.2, and the receipt by Lender of evidence satisfactory to Lender that all costs incurred in connection with the Restoration have been paid in full, shall be deposited into the Cash Management Account to be applied in accordance with Section 6.11.1; provided, however, the amount of such excess so deposited in the case of a Condemnation shall not exceed the amount of Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited by Borrower with the balance being applied to the Debt in the manner provided for in subsection 5.3.2(h).

(h) All Net Proceeds not required (i) to be made available for the Restoration or (ii) to be returned to Borrower as excess Net Proceeds pursuant to Section 5.3.2(g) may be retained and applied by Lender toward the payment of the Debt, whether or not then due and payable, in such order, priority and proportions as Lender in its sole discretion shall deem proper; provided, however, that if an Event of Default is not continuing, then no Yield Maintenance Premium or other prepayment premium or penalty shall be payable with respect to the application of Net Proceeds in accordance with this Section 5.3.2(h).

Article 6: CASH MANAGEMENT AND RESERVE FUNDS

Section 6.1 Cash Management Arrangements. Each Borrower shall cause all Rents and other Gross Revenue (other than payments received on account of the business interruption insurance specified in Subsection 5.1.1(a)(iii), which shall be governed by Section 5.2.3) to be transmitted by (a) credit card clearing banks with which Borrower, Property Manager or Intermediate Manager has entered into agreements for the clearance of credit card receipts (collectively, “Credit Card Banks”) and credit card companies with which Borrower, Property Manager or Intermediate Manager has entered into merchants agreements (collectively, “Credit Card Companies”) and (b) any Tenants of the Property, in each case, directly into the applicable Clearing Account established and maintained by or on behalf of Borrower at a local bank selected by Borrower and reasonably approved by Lender (the “Clearing Bank”) as more fully described in the Clearing Account Agreement. Without in any way limiting the foregoing, from and after the date hereof, Borrower shall notify and advise each Tenant under each Lease (whether such Lease is presently effective or executed after the date hereof) to send directly to the Clearing Account all payments of Rent pursuant to an instruction letter in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto (a “Tenant Direction Letter”). Without in any way limiting the foregoing, Borrower shall instruct (and shall not withdraw or change any such instruction during the Term unless requested to do so by Lender, which request must be consistent with the terms of this Agreement) each of the Credit Card Banks and the Credit Card Companies that all credit card receipts with respect to the Property (net of any expenses charged for such processing) cleared by such Credit Card Banks or Credit Card Companies, as applicable, shall be transferred by such Credit Card Banks or Credit Card Companies, as applicable, by wire transfer or the ACH System to the Clearing Bank for deposit in the Clearing Account pursuant to an instruction letter in the form of Exhibit C hereto (a “Credit Card Bank Payment Direction Letter”) or Exhibit D hereto (a “Credit Card Company Payment Direction Letter”), as applicable. Borrower hereby represents and warrants that Borrower has delivered or caused to be delivered Credit Card Bank Payment Direction Letters and Credit Card Payment Direction Letters to each of the Credit Card Banks and Credit Card Companies, as applicable. If, notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 6.1, Borrower, Property Manager or Intermediate Manager receive any Gross Revenue from the Property, then (i) such amounts shall be deemed to be collateral for the Obligations and shall be held in trust for the benefit, and as the property, of Lender, (ii) such amounts shall not be commingled with any other funds or property of Borrower, Property Manager or Intermediate Manager (except in accordance with the Clearing Account Agreement and the Cash Management Agreement), and (iii) Borrower, Property Manager or Intermediate Manager shall deposit such amounts in the Clearing Account within one Business Day of receipt; provided, however, so long as the Property Management Agreement relating to the Properties located in Indianapolis, Indiana, Knoxville, Tennessee and Naperville, Illinois, as applicable, shall have not been terminated, cash receipts received for Properties located in Indianapolis, Indiana, Knoxville, Tennessee and Naperville, Illinois may be deposited in a Borrower account established by the applicable Property Manager (as agent for Borrower), so long as any amounts on deposit in each such account in excess of $1,000.00 are transferred by wire transfer to the Clearing Account no less frequently than once each calendar week.

Funds deposited into the Clearing Account shall be swept by the Clearing Bank on a daily basis into an Eligible Account at the Cash Management Bank controlled by Lender (the “Cash Management Account”) and applied and disbursed in accordance with this Agreement and the Cash Management Agreement. Funds in the Cash Management Account may be invested in Permitted Investments, as more particularly set forth in the Cash Management Agreement. As an alternative to establishing each Account required pursuant to the terms of this Agreement as a separate Eligible Account, Lender may also establish or cause to be established subaccounts of the Cash Management Account or the other Accounts described herein which shall at all times be Eligible Accounts (and may be ledger or book entry accounts and not actual accounts) whereupon all provisions of this Agreement referring to (i) any Account shall be deemed to apply instead to the corresponding subaccount and (ii) to the Accounts generally shall be deemed to apply instead to the Cash Management Account or any other Account described herein. The Clearing Account, the Cash Management Account and all other Accounts shall be under the sole control and dominion of Lender, and Borrower shall have no right of withdrawal therefrom. Borrower shall pay for all expenses of opening and maintaining all of the above accounts. In the event of a resignation by Clearing Bank, Borrower shall, promptly after receipt of notice of such resignation, designate a successor to Clearing Bank, which successor shall be subject to the reasonable approval of Lender, cause the execution of a replacement Clearing Account Agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Lender and deliver Credit Card Bank Payment Direction Letters and Credit Card Company Payment Direction Letters to the Credit Card Banks and/or Credit Card Companies, as applicable, and Tenant Direction Letters to any Tenants in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Section 6.1.

Section 6.2 Required Repairs Funds.

6.2.1 Deposit of Required Repairs Funds. Borrower shall perform the repairs and other work at the Property as set forth on Schedule V attached hereto (such repairs and other work hereinafter referred to as “Required Repairs”) and shall complete each of the Required Repairs on or before the respective deadline for each repair as set forth on Schedule V. On the Closing Date, Borrower shall deposit or cause to be deposited with or on behalf of Lender the amount, if any, set forth on such Schedule V to perform the Required Repairs (the “Required Repairs Funds”), which Required Repairs Funds shall be transferred by or at the direction of Lender into an Account established to hold such funds (the “Required Repairs Account”). Lender’s decision of whether or not to collect Required Repairs Funds in connection with any particular Required Repairs shall not reduce Borrowers’ obligation to complete such Required Repair.

6.2.2 Release of Required Repairs Funds.

(a) Lender shall, or shall direct Servicer to, disburse the Required Repairs Funds to Borrower out of the Required Repairs Account upon satisfaction by Borrower of each of the Reserve Disbursement Conditions with respect to each such disbursement. Lender shall not be required to disburse Required Repairs Funds more frequently than once each calendar month, and each disbursement of Required Repairs Funds must be in an amount not less than the Minimum Disbursement Amount (or a lesser amount if the total amount of Required Repairs Funds is less than the Minimum Disbursement Amount, in which case only one disbursement of the amount remaining in the account shall be made). Upon the Borrower’s completion of all Required Repairs in accordance with this Section 6.2, Lender shall, or shall direct Servicer to, deposit any remaining Required Repairs Funds held in the Required Repairs Account into the Cash Management Account to be applied in accordance with Section 6.11.1. Any Required Repairs Funds remaining in the Required Repairs Account after the Obligations have been paid in full shall be returned to Borrower.

(b) Nothing in this Section 6.2.2 shall (i) make Lender responsible for performing or completing any Required Repairs; (ii) require Lender to expend funds in addition to the Required Repairs Funds to complete any Required Repairs; (iii) obligate Lender to proceed with any Required Repairs; or (iv) obligate Lender to demand from Borrower additional sums to complete any Required Repairs.

(c) Borrower shall permit Lender and Lender’s agents and representatives (including Lender’s engineer, architect or inspector) or third parties to enter onto the Property during normal business hours (subject to the rights of Tenants under their Leases) to inspect the progress of any Required Repairs and all materials being used in connection therewith and to examine all plans and shop drawings relating to such Required Repairs. Borrower shall cause all contractors and subcontractors to cooperate with Lender or Lender’s representatives or such other Persons described above in connection with inspections described in this Section 6.2.2(c)).

(d) If a disbursement of Required Repair Funds will exceed $25,000.00, Lender may require an inspection of the Property at Borrower’s expense prior to making a disbursement of Required Repairs Funds in order to verify completion of the Required Repairs for which reimbursement is sought. Lender may require that such inspection be conducted by an appropriate independent qualified professional selected by Lender and may require a certificate of completion by an independent qualified professional acceptable to Lender prior to the disbursement of Required Repairs Funds. Borrower shall pay the actual and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the inspection as required hereunder, whether such inspection is conducted by Lender or by an independent qualified professional.

(e) In addition to any insurance required under the Loan Documents, Borrower shall provide or cause to be provided workmen’s compensation insurance, builder’s risk insurance, public liability insurance and other insurance to the extent required under applicable law in connection with the Required Repairs. All such policies shall be in form and amount satisfactory to Lender.

Section 6.3 Tax Funds.

6.3.1 Deposits of Tax Funds. Borrower shall deposit or cause to be deposited with or on behalf of Lender (a) on the Closing Date, the amount of Eight Hundred Ninety Thousand Two Hundred Fifteen and 26/100 Dollars ($890,215.26) and (b) on each Monthly Payment Date, an amount equal to one-twelfth of the Taxes that Lender estimates will be payable during the next ensuing twelve (12) months in order to accumulate sufficient funds to pay all such Taxes at least ten (10) days prior to their respective due dates, which amounts shall be transferred by or at the direction of Lender into an Account established to hold such funds (the “Tax Account”). Amounts deposited from time to time into the Tax Account pursuant to this Section 6.3.1 are referred to herein as the “Tax Funds”. If at any time, Lender reasonably determines that the Tax Funds will not be sufficient to pay the Taxes, Lender shall notify Borrower in writing of such determination and the monthly deposits for Taxes shall be increased by the amount that Lender estimates is sufficient to make up the deficiency at least ten (10) days prior to the respective due dates for the Taxes; provided that if Borrower receives written notice of any deficiency after the date that is ten (10) days prior to the date that Taxes are due, Borrower will deposit with or on behalf of Lender, such amount within two Business Days after its receipt of such notice.

6.3.2 Release of Tax Funds. Provided no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Lender shall, or shall direct Servicer to, apply the Tax Funds, if any, in the Tax Account to payments of Taxes. In making any payment relating to Taxes, Lender may do so according to any xxxx, statement or estimate procured from the appropriate public office (with respect to Taxes) without inquiry into the accuracy of such xxxx, statement or estimate or into the validity of any tax, assessment, sale, forfeiture, tax lien or title or claim thereof. If at any time the amount of the Tax Funds shall exceed the amounts due for Taxes, Lender shall, or shall direct Servicer to, deposit such excess (as determined by Lender in its reasonable discretion) into the Cash Management Account to be applied in accordance with Section 6.11.1 or credit such excess against future payments to be made to the Tax Funds, such election to be made by Lender in its sole discretion. Any Tax Funds remaining in the Tax Account after the Obligations have been paid in full shall be returned to Borrower.

Section 6.4 Insurance Funds.

6.4.1 Deposits of Insurance Funds. Subject to Section 6.4.3, Borrower shall deposit or cause to be deposited with or on behalf of Lender on each Monthly Payment Date, an amount equal to one-twelfth of the Insurance Premiums that Lender estimates will be payable for the renewal of the coverage afforded by the Policies upon the expiration thereof in order to accumulate sufficient funds to pay all such Insurance Premiums at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the Policies, which amounts shall be transferred by or at the direction of Lender into an Account established to hold such funds (the “Insurance Account”). Amounts deposited from time to time into the Insurance Account pursuant to this Section 6.4.1 are referred to herein as the “Insurance Funds”. If at any time, Lender reasonably determines that the Insurance Funds will not be sufficient to pay the Insurance Premiums, Lender shall notify Borrower in writing of such determination and the monthly deposits for Insurance Premiums shall be increased by the amount that Lender estimates is sufficient to make up the deficiency at least thirty (30) days prior to expiration of the Policies; provided that if Borrower receives written notice of any deficiency after the date that is thirty (30) days prior to expiration of the Policies, Borrower will deposit with or on behalf of Lender, such amount within two Business Days after its receipt of such notice.

6.4.2 Release of Insurance Funds. Provided no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Lender shall, or shall direct Servicer to, apply the Insurance Funds, if any, in the Insurance Account to payment of Insurance Premiums. In making any payment relating to Insurance Premiums, Lender may do so according to any xxxx, statement or estimate procured from the insurer or its agent, without inquiry into the accuracy of such xxxx, statement or estimate. If at any time the amount of the Insurance Funds shall exceed the amounts due for Insurance Premiums, Lender shall, or shall direct Servicer to, deposit such excess (as determined by Lender in its reasonable discretion) into the Cash Management Account to be applied in accordance with Section 6.11.1 or credit such excess against future payments to be made to the Insurance Funds, such election to be made by Lender in its sole discretion. Any Insurance Funds remaining in the Insurance Account after the Obligations have been paid in full shall be returned to Borrower.

6.4.3 Blanket Insurance. Lender shall suspend Borrower’s obligations under this Section 6.4 to the extent that Lender is reasonably satisfied, based on evidence provided by Borrower from time to time, that all of the Property is covered by a blanket insurance program that provides insurance meeting the requirements of this Agreement and Lender’s other customary requirements for blanket insurance programs, and that the premiums under such blanket insurance program are being paid when due. Borrower shall, no less than ten (10) days prior to the annual expiration date of any such blanket insurance program, provide evidence of the renewal of such program together with such additional evidence as Lender may demand from time to time.

The failure of Borrower to make all of the payments required under clauses (a)(ii) through clause (a)(v) and clause (a)(vii) of Section 6.11.1 in full on each Monthly Payment Date shall constitute an Event of Default under this Agreement; provided, however, if adequate funds are available in the Cash Management Account for such payments, and an Event of Default is not otherwise in existence, the failure by the Cash Management Bank to allocate such funds into the appropriate Accounts or to make the required payments from such Accounts shall not constitute an Event of Default. The insufficiency of funds on deposit in the Cash Management Account shall not relieve Borrower from the obligation to make any payments, as and when due pursuant to the Loan Documents.

6.11.3 Application After Event of Default. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender, at its option, may apply any Gross Revenue then in the possession of Lender, Servicer or Cash Management Bank (including any Reserve Funds on deposit in any Cash Management Account) to the payment of the Debt in such order, proportion and priority as Lender may determine in its sole and absolute discretion; provided, however, that Lender shall fund Approved Operating Expenses (including, upon Borrower’s request pursuant to the definition of Approved Operating Expenses, funds for excess Operating Expenses in an amount up to, but not exceeding 10% of the Monthly Operating Expense Budgeted Amount) relating to the Hilton Brand Managed Properties, together with any Taxes and Insurance Premiums relating to Hilton Brand Managed Properties, if any are held on reserve (and are therefore not otherwise released as part of the Approved Operating Expenses relating to the Hilton Brand Managed Properties), unless and until Lender has terminated the Property Manager of the Hilton Brand Managed Properties pursuant to the terms of the applicable Assignment of Management Agreement. Lender’s right to withdraw and apply any of the foregoing funds shall be in addition to all other rights and remedies provided to Lender under the Loan Documents.

(d) If, at the time a Disclosure Document is being prepared for a Securitization, Lender reasonably determines that Borrower alone or Borrower and one or more Affiliates of Borrower (including any guarantor or other Person that is directly or indirectly committed by contract or otherwise to make payments on all or a part of the Loan) collectively, or the Property alone or the Property and Related Properties collectively, will be a Significant Obligor, Borrower shall furnish to Lender, upon request the following financial information:

(i) if Lender reasonably determines that the principal amount of the Loan together with any Related Loans, as of the cut-off date for such Securitization, may equal or exceed ten percent (10%) (but less than twenty percent (20%)) of the aggregate principal amount of all mortgage loans included or expected to be included in the Securitization, net operating income for the Property and the Related Properties for the most recent fiscal year and interim period as required under Item 1112(b)(1) of Regulation AB (or, if the Loan is not treated as a non-recourse loan under Instruction 3 for Item 1101(k) of Regulation AB, selected financial data meeting the requirements and covering the time periods specified in Item 301 of Regulation S-K and Item 1112(b)(1) of Regulation AB), or

(e) Further, if requested by Lender, Borrower shall, promptly upon Lender’s request, furnish to Lender financial data or financial statements meeting the requirements of Item 1112(b)(1) or (2) of Regulation AB, as specified by Lender, for any Tenant of the Property if, in connection with a Securitization, Lender expects there to be, as of the cutoff date for such Securitization, a concentration with respect to such Tenant or group of Affiliated Tenants within all of the mortgage loans included or expected to be included in the Securitization such that such Tenant or group of Affiliated Tenants would constitute a Significant Obligor. Borrower shall furnish to Lender, in connection with the preparation of the Disclosure Documents and on an ongoing basis, financial data and/or financial statements with respect to such Tenants meeting the requirements of Item 1112(b)(1) or (2) of Regulation AB, as specified by Lender, but only for so long as such entity or entities are a Significant Obligor and either (i) Exchange Act Filings are required to be made under applicable Legal Requirements or (ii) comparable information is required to otherwise be “available” to holders of the Securities under Regulation AB or applicable Legal Requirements.

(f) If Lender determines that Borrower alone or Borrower and one or more Affiliates of Borrower collectively, or the Property alone or the Property and Related Properties collectively, are a Significant Obligor, then Borrower shall furnish to Lender, on an ongoing basis, selected financial data or financial statements meeting the requirements of Item 1112(b)(1) or (2) of Regulation AB, as specified by Lender, but only for so long as such entity or entities are a Significant Obligor and either (i) Exchange Act Filings are required to be made under applicable Legal Requirements or (ii) comparable information is required to otherwise be “available” to holders of the Securities under Regulation AB or applicable Legal Requirements.

(h) If requested by Lender, Borrower shall provide Lender, promptly, and in any event within three (3) Business Days following Lender’s request therefor, with any other or additional financial statements, or financial, statistical or operating information, as Lender shall reasonably determine to be required pursuant to Regulation S-K or Regulation S-X, as applicable, Regulation AB, or any amendment, modification or replacement thereto or other Legal Requirements relating to a Securitization or as shall otherwise be reasonably requested by Lender.

(i) If requested by Lender, whether in connection with a Securitization or at any time thereafter during which the Loan and any Related Loans are included in a Securitization, Borrower shall provide Lender, promptly upon request, a list of Tenants (including all affiliates of such Tenants) that in the aggregate (1) occupy ten percent (10%) or more (but less than twenty percent (20%)) of the total floor area of the improvements or represent ten percent (10%) or more (but less than twenty percent (20%)) of aggregate base rent, and (2) occupy twenty percent (20%) or more of the total floor area of the improvements or represent twenty percent (20%) or more of aggregate base rent.

(j) All financial statements provided by Borrower pursuant to Section 9.1(d), (e), (f) or (g) shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP, and shall meet the requirements of Regulation S-K or Regulation S-X, as applicable, Regulation AB, and other applicable Legal Requirements. All financial statements relating to a Fiscal Year shall, if necessary in order to satisfy the requirements of such regulations, be audited by independent accountants of Borrower acceptable to Lender in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K, as applicable, Regulation AB, and all other applicable Legal Requirements, shall be accompanied by the manually executed report of the independent accountants thereon, which report shall meet the requirements of Regulation S-K or Regulation S-X, as applicable, Regulation AB, and all other applicable Legal Requirements, and shall be further accompanied by a manually executed written consent of the independent accountants, in form and substance acceptable to Lender, to the inclusion of such financial statements in any Disclosure Document and any Exchange Act Filing and to the use of the name of such independent accountants and the reference to such independent accountants as “experts” in any Disclosure Document and Exchange Act Filing (or comparable information is required to otherwise be available to holders of the Securities under Regulation AB or applicable Legal Requirements), all of which shall be provided at the same time as the related financial statements are required to be provided. All other financial statements shall be certified by the chief financial officer of Borrower, which certification shall state that such financial statements meet the requirements set forth in the first sentence of this paragraph.

Section 9.2 Securitization Indemnification.

(a) Borrower understands and agrees that information provided to Lender by Borrower or its agents, counsel and representatives may be included in Disclosure Documents in connection with a Securitization and may also be included in filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and may be made available to investors or prospective investors in the Securities, the NRSROs, investment banking firms, accounting firms, law firms and other third-party advisory and service providers relating to a Securitization.

(b) Borrower hereby agrees (i) to indemnify Lender, any Affiliate of Lender that has filed any registration statement relating to a Securitization or has acted as the issuer, sponsor, depositor or seller in connection with a Securitization, any Affiliate of Lender that acts as an underwriter, placement agent or initial purchaser of Securities issued in connection with a Securitization, any other issuers, depositors, underwriters, placement agents or initial purchasers of Securities issued in connection with a Securitization, and each of their respective officers, directors, partners, employees, representatives, agents and Affiliates, and each Person that controls any such Person within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (collectively, the “Indemnified Persons”) for any losses, liabilities, obligations, claims, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs and expenses (collectively, the “Liabilities”) to which any Indemnified Person may become subject insofar as the Liabilities arise out of or are based upon (A) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact, as it relates to Borrower, Borrower Affiliates, the Properties (or any portion thereof), any Affiliated Manager, or Guarantor, contained in the information provided to Lender by Borrower, any Affiliate of Borrower or any of their respective agents, counsel or representatives (collectively, the “Covered Disclosure Information”), (B) the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated in such Covered Disclosure Information or necessary in order to make the statements in such Covered Disclosure Information, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading and/or (C) a breach of the representations and warranties made by Borrower in Section 3.1.40 of this Agreement and (ii) to reimburse each Indemnified Person for any out-of-pocket legal or other expenses actually incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection with investigating or defending the Liabilities; provided, however, that Borrower will be liable in any such case under clauses (i) or (ii) above only to the extent that any such Liability arises out of, or is based upon, an untrue statement, alleged untrue statement, omission or alleged omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with (x) information furnished by or on behalf of Borrower to Lender (1) in connection with the preparation of the Covered Disclosure Information or (2) in connection with the underwriting or closing of the Loan or (y) any of the reports, statements or other information furnished by or on behalf of Borrower to Lender pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including, without limitation, financial statements of Borrower and operating statements and rent rolls with respect to the Property. This indemnity will be in addition to any liability which Borrower may otherwise have.

(c) In connection with any Exchange Act Filing or other reports containing comparable information that are required to be made available to holders of the Securities under Regulation AB or other applicable Legal Requirements, Borrower shall (i) indemnify the Indemnified Persons for Liabilities to which any Indemnified Person may become subject insofar as the Liabilities arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement, alleged untrue statement, omission or alleged omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with (x) information furnished by or on behalf of Borrower to Lender (1) in connection with the preparation of the Disclosure Documents or (2) in connection with the underwriting or closing of the Loan or (y) any of the reports, statements or other information furnished by or on behalf of Borrower to Lender pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including, without limitation, financial statements of Borrower and operating statements and rent rolls with respect to the Property, and (ii) reimburse each Indemnified Person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection with investigating or defending the Liabilities.

(d) Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Person of notice of a claim or the commencement of any action, such Indemnified Person will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against Borrower, notify Borrower in writing of the commencement thereof, but the omission to so notify Borrower will not relieve Borrower from any liability which it may have to any Indemnified Person under this Section 9.2 except to the extent that failure to notify materially prejudices Borrower. In the event that any action is brought against any Indemnified Person, and it notifies Borrower of the commencement thereof, Borrower will be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it may elect by written notice delivered to the Indemnified Person promptly after receiving the aforesaid notice from such Indemnified Person, to assume the defense thereof with counsel satisfactory to such Indemnified Person. After notice from Borrower to such Indemnified Person of Borrower’s election to assume the defense of such action, such Indemnified Person shall pay for any reasonable legal or other related expenses subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided, however, if the defendants in any such action include both Indemnified Person and Borrower and the Indemnified Person shall have reasonably concluded that there are legal defenses available to it and/or other Indemnified Persons that are different from or additional to those available to Borrower, the Indemnified Person or Persons shall have the right to select separate counsel to assert such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such action on behalf of such Indemnified Person or Persons at the cost of Borrower. Borrower shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel (in addition to local counsel) unless an Indemnified Person shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or additional to those available to another Indemnified Person.

(e) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which any indemnification or reimbursement under this Section 9.2 is for any reason held to be unenforceable as to an Indemnified Person in respect of any Liabilities (or action in respect thereof) referred to herein which would otherwise be indemnifiable under this Section 9.2, Borrower shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the Indemnified Person as a result of such Liabilities (or action in respect thereof); provided, however, that no Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. In determining the amount of contribution to which the respective parties are entitled, the following factors shall be considered: (i) Lender’s and Borrower’s relative knowledge and access to information concerning the matter with respect to which the claim was asserted; (ii) the opportunity to correct and prevent any statement or omission; and (iii) any other equitable considerations appropriate in the circumstances. Lender and Borrower hereby agree that it would not be equitable if the amount of such contribution were determined by pro rata or per capita allocation.

(f) Without limiting the generality of this Section 9.2, Borrower hereby agrees (i) to indemnify the Indemnified Persons against any Liabilities to which any Indemnified Persons may become subject in connection with any indemnification to the Rating Agencies engaged to rate any Securitization holding all or a portion of the Loan in connection with issuing, monitoring or maintaining the Securities insofar as the Liabilities arise out of or are based upon (A) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the information provided to Lender or one or more of the NRSROs by Borrower, any Affiliate of Borrower or any of their respective agents, counsel or representatives, and/or (B) the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated in such information or necessary in order to make the statements in such information, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading and/or (C) a breach of the representations and warranties made by Borrower in Section 3.1.40 of this Agreement and (ii) to reimburse each Indemnified Person for any out-of-pocket legal or other expenses actually incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection with investigating or defending such Liabilities; provided, however, that, other than in connection with information provided by Borrower, any Affiliate of Borrower or any of their respective agents, counsel or representatives directly to one or more of the NRSROs, Borrower will be liable in any such case under clauses (i) or (ii) above only to the extent that any such Liability arises out of, or is based upon, an untrue statement, alleged untrue statement, omission or alleged omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with (x) information furnished by or on behalf of Borrower to Lender (1) in connection with the issuance, monitoring or maintenance of the Securities or (2) in connection with the underwriting or closing of the Loan or (y) any of the reports, statements or other information furnished by or on behalf of Borrower to Lender pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including, without limitation, financial statements of Borrower and operating statements and rent rolls with respect to the Property. This indemnity will be in addition to any liability which Borrower may otherwise have.

(g) For the avoidance of doubt, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, “Indemnified Persons” shall include the initial named Lender hereunder and each other Lender that has held an interest in the Loan at any time during the Term, including prior to the occurrence of the act or omission giving rise to the applicable Liabilities.

(h) The liabilities and obligations of both Borrower and Lender under this Section 9.2 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the satisfaction and discharge of the Obligations.

Section 9.3 Severance Documentation. Lender shall have the right, at any time (whether prior to or after any Secondary Market Transaction in respect of all or any portion of the Loan), to modify, split and/or sever the Loan one or more times in order to (a) create (i) one or more new loans (including first and second mortgage loans), (ii) one or more new notes (including senior and junior notes (i.e., A/B and A/B/C structure)), (iii) multiple components of the Note or Notes and/or (iv) one or more mezzanine loans (a “New Mezzanine Loan”) (including amending Borrower’s organizational structure and the organizational documents of Borrower and its direct and indirect shareholders, partners, members and non-member managers to provide for one or more mezzanine borrowers), (b) reduce the number of loans, notes and/or components, (c) revise the interest rates of the loans, notes and/or components, (d) allocate and reallocate the principal balances of the loans, notes and/or components, (e) increase or decrease the monthly debt service payments for the loans, notes and/or components, (f) eliminate the multiple loan, note and/or component structure (including the elimination of the related allocations of principal and interest payments) or (g) otherwise achieve the optimum execution for a Secondary Market Transaction; provided, however, that in modifying, splitting and/or severing the Loan as provided above (1) Borrower shall not be required to modify the Stated Maturity Date, (2) the aggregate principal amount of all such loans, notes and/or components shall, on the date created, equal the Outstanding Principal Balance immediately prior to the creation of such loans, notes and/or components, (3) the weighted average interest rate of all such loans, notes and/or components shall, on the date created, equal the interest rate applicable to the Loan immediately prior to the creation of such loans, notes and/or components (except that the weighted average interest rate may subsequently increase as a result of prepayments made in accordance with Section 2.6 hereof or following a Casualty, Condemnation or Event of Default, but in no other circumstances), and (4) the scheduled debt service payments on all such loans, notes and/or components shall, on the date created, equal the scheduled debt service payments under the Loan immediately prior to the creation of such loans, notes and/or components and (5) Borrower’s rights and Lender’s obligations under the Loan Documents shall not decrease (other than to a de minimis extent) and the Lender’s rights and Borrower’s obligations under the Loan Documents shall not increase (other than to a de minimis extent). At Lender’s election, each note comprising the Loan may be subject to one or more Secondary Market Transactions. Lender shall have the right to modify, split and/or sever the Loan in accordance with this Section 9.3 and, provided that such modification, split and/or severance shall comply with the terms of this Section 9.3, it shall become immediately effective. If requested by Lender, Borrower shall promptly execute an amendment to the Loan Documents to evidence any such modification, split and/or severance including, without limitation, an amendment to the Cash Management Agreement to reflect the newly created loans, notes and/or components. Borrower hereby absolutely and irrevocably appoints Lender as its true and lawful attorney, coupled with an interest, in its name and stead to make and execute all documents necessary or desirable to effect and modification, split and/or severance as described in this Section 9.3, Borrower ratifying all that its said attorney shall do by virtue thereof; provided, however, Lender shall not make or execute any such documents under such power until four (4) days after notice has been given to Borrower by Lender of Lender’s intent to exercise its rights under such power and Borrower has failed to execute such documents.

Section 9.4 Cross Collateralization. Borrower agrees that at any time Lender shall have the unilateral right to elect to remove the cross-collateralization of the Liens of the Security Instruments encumbering any one (1) or more of the Properties (individually or collectively, as the context may require, the “Affected Property”). In furtherance thereof, Lender shall have the right to (a) sever or divide the Note and the other Loan Documents in order to allocate to such Affected Property the Allocated Loan Amount with respect to such Property evidenced by one (1) or more new notes and secured by such other loan documents (individually or collectively, as the context may require, the “New Note”) having a principal amount equal to the Allocated Loan Amount applicable to such Affected Property, (b) segregate the applicable portion of each of the Reserve Funds relating to the Affected Property, (c) release any cross-default and/or cross-collateralization provisions applicable to such Affected Property, and (d) take such additional action consistent therewith; provided, that such New Note secured by such Affected Property, together with the Loan Documents secured by the remaining Properties, shall not increase in the aggregate (i) any monetary obligation of Borrower under the Loan Documents or (ii) any other obligation of Borrower under the Loan Documents, or decrease any rights of Borrowers or obligations of Lender under the Loan Documents (other than to a de minimis extent) or increase any rights of Lender under the Loan Documents (other than to a de minimis extent). In connection with the transfer of any such Affected Property as provided for in this Section 9.4, the Loan shall be reduced by an amount equal to amount of the New Note applicable to such Affected Property and the new loan secured by such Affected Property and evidenced by the New Note shall be in an amount equal to such Allocated Loan Amount. Subsequent to the release of the Affected Property from the lien of the Loan pursuant to this Section 9.4, the balances of the components of the Loan shall be the same as they would have been had a prepayment occurred in an amount equal to the Allocated Loan Amount of the Affected Property. At the request of Lender, Borrower shall otherwise reasonably cooperate with Lender in its attempt to satisfy all requirements necessary in order for Lender to obtain a Rating Agency Confirmation from the Approved Rating Agencies with respect to such transfer of the Affected Property from the Securitization and splitting of the Loan, which requirements shall include, without limitation: (A) delivery of evidence that the single purpose nature and bankruptcy remoteness of Borrowers owning Properties other than the Affected Property following such release have not been adversely affected and are in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement (which evidence may include a “bring-down” of the Insolvency Opinion); and (B) the execution of such documents and instruments and delivery by Lender of such opinions of counsel as are typical for similar transactions, including, an opinion of counsel that the release of the Affected Property will not be a “significant modification” of this Loan within the meaning of Section 1.1001-3 of the regulations of the United States Department of the Treasury and that all other requirements applicable, if any, to a REMIC Trust, have been satisfied or have not otherwise been violated.

Section 9.5 Secondary Market Transaction Costs.

All costs and expenses incurred by Borrower, Guarantor, Property Manager, Intermediate Manager, Lender and their respective Affiliates in connection with Sections 9.1, 9.3 and 9.4 (including, without limitation, the fees and expenses of the Rating Agencies) shall be paid by Borrower; provided that such costs and expenses shall not exceed $50,000 in the aggregate for all Securitizations (and Lender shall reimburse Borrower for all such costs and expenses, including reasonable out-of-pocket legal fees and expenses, incurred by Borrower, Guarantor, Property Manager, Intermediate Manager and their respective Affiliates in connection with Borrower’s compliance with Sections 9.1, 9.3 and 9.4 (including, without limitation, the fees and expenses of the Rating Agencies) in excess of $50,000).

Article 10: DEFAULTS

Section 10.1 Events of Default.

(a) Each of the following events shall constitute an event of default hereunder (each, an “Event of Default”):

(i) if any monthly installment of principal and/or interest due under the Note or any payment of Reserve Funds due under this Agreement or the payment of the Obligations due on the Maturity Date is not paid when due (provided, however, that if no other Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and adequate funds have been allocated pursuant to Section 6.11.1 for payment of any required monthly installment of principal, interest and required deposit of Reserve Funds, the failure by Cash Management Bank to disburse any payments due to Lender and/or allocate such funds to the appropriate Reserve Account in violation of the Loan Documents shall not constitute an Event of Default);

(ii) if any other portion of the Obligations (other than as set forth in the foregoing clause (i)) is not paid when due and such non-payment continues for five (5) days following written notice to Borrower that the same is due and payable;

(iii) if any of the Taxes or Other Charges are not paid when due (provided, however, that if no other Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and adequate funds are on deposit in the Tax Account for payment of any required Taxes or Other Charges then due and payable, the failure by Lender or its agent to cause such payments to be made shall not constitute an Event of Default);

Section 10.2 Remedies.

(a) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, all or any one or more of the rights, powers, privileges and other remedies available to Lender against Borrower under the Loan Documents executed and delivered by, or applicable to, Borrower or at law or in equity may be exercised by Lender at any time and from time to time, whether or not all or any of the Obligations shall be declared due and payable, and whether or not Lender shall have commenced any foreclosure proceeding or other action for the enforcement of its rights and remedies under any of the Loan Documents with respect to the Property. Any such actions taken by Lender shall be cumulative and concurrent and may be pursued independently, singly, successively, together or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Lender may determine in its sole discretion, to the fullest extent permitted by law, without impairing or otherwise affecting the other rights and remedies of Lender permitted by law, equity or contract or as set forth in the Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if an Event of Default is continuing (i) Lender shall not be subject to any “one action” or “election of remedies” law or rule, and (ii) all Liens and other rights, remedies or privileges provided to Lender shall remain in full force and effect until Lender has exhausted all of its remedies against the Property and the Security Instrument(s) has been foreclosed, sold and/or otherwise realized upon in satisfaction of the Obligations or the Obligations have been paid in full.

(b) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender shall have the right from time to time to partially foreclose the Security Instrument(s) in any manner and for any amounts secured by the Security Instrument(s) then due and payable as determined by Lender in its sole discretion including the following circumstances: (i) in the event Borrower defaults beyond any applicable grace period in the payment of one or more scheduled payments of principal and interest, Lender may foreclose the Security Instrument(s) to recover such delinquent payments, or (ii) in the event Lender elects to accelerate less than the entire Outstanding Principal Balance, Lender may foreclose the Security Instrument(s) to recover so much of the principal balance of the Loan as Lender may accelerate and such other sums secured by the Security Instrument(s) as Lender may elect. Notwithstanding one or more partial foreclosures, the Property shall remain subject to the Security Instrument(s) to secure payment of the sums secured by the Security Instrument(s) and not previously recovered.

(c) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender shall have the right from time to time to sever the Note and the other Loan Documents into one or more separate notes, mortgages and other security documents (the “Severed Loan Documents”) in such denominations as Lender shall determine in its sole discretion for purposes of evidencing and enforcing its rights and remedies provided hereunder. In such event, Borrower shall execute and deliver to Lender from time to time, promptly after the request of Lender, a severance agreement and such other documents as Lender shall request in order to effect the severance described in the preceding sentence, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender. Borrower hereby absolutely and irrevocably appoints Lender as its true and lawful attorney, coupled with an interest, in its name and stead to make and execute all documents necessary or desirable to effect the aforesaid severance, Borrower ratifying all that its said attorney shall do by virtue thereof; provided, however, that Lender shall not make or execute any such documents under such power until five (5) Business Days after written notice has been given to Borrower by Lender of Lender’s intent to exercise its rights under such power. Borrower shall be obligated to pay all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, execution, recording and filing of the Severed Loan Documents. The Severed Loan Documents shall not contain any representations, warranties or covenants not contained in the Loan Documents and any such representations and warranties contained in the Severed Loan Documents will be given by Borrower only as of the Closing Date.

(d) Any amounts recovered from the Property or any other collateral for the Loan after an Event of Default may be applied by Lender toward the payment of any interest and/or principal of the Loan and/or any other amounts due under the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, the Yield Maintenance Premium, if applicable, in such order, priority and proportions as Lender in its sole discretion shall determine.

Section 10.3 Lender’s Right to Perform. During the continuation of any Event of Default, if Borrower fails to perform any covenant or obligation contained in the Loan Documents, without in any way limiting Lender’s right to exercise any of its rights, powers or remedies as provided under any of the Loan Documents or releasing Borrower from any covenant or obligation under the Loan Documents, Lender may, but shall have no obligation to, perform, or cause the performance of, such covenant or obligation, and all out-of-pocket costs, expenses, liabilities, penalties and fines of Lender incurred or paid in connection therewith shall be payable by Borrower to Lender upon demand, and if not paid shall be added to the Obligations (and to the extent permitted under applicable laws, secured by the Security Instrument(s) and the other Loan Documents) and shall bear interest at the Default Rate. Lender shall have no obligation to send notice to Borrower of any such failure.

Section 10.4 Remedies Cumulative. The rights, powers and remedies of Lender under this Agreement shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any other right, power or remedy which Lender may have against Borrower pursuant to the Loan Documents, or existing at law or in equity or otherwise. Lender’s rights, powers and remedies may be pursued singly, concurrently or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Lender may determine in Lender’s sole discretion. No delay or omission to exercise any remedy, right or power accruing upon an Event of Default shall impair any such remedy, right or power or shall be construed as a waiver thereof, but any such remedy, right or power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. A waiver of one Default or Event of Default with respect to Borrower shall not be construed to be a waiver of any subsequent Default or Event of Default by Borrower or to impair any remedy, right or power consequent thereon. Nothing contained herein or in the other Loan Documents shall be construed to grant Borrower any right to cure an Event of Default and each Event of Default shall continue unless and until the same is waived by Lender in writing in its sole and absolute discretion in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Loan Documents.

Prior to a Securitization, whenever pursuant to this Agreement the Rating Agencies are given any right to approve or disapprove any matter, or any arrangement or term is to be satisfactory to the Rating Agencies, the decision of Lender to approve or disapprove such matter, or to decide whether arrangements or terms are satisfactory or not satisfactory, shall be substituted therefor, which such decision shall be based upon Lender’s reasonable determination of Rating Agency criteria (unless Lender has an independent approval right in respect of the matter at issue pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, in which case the discretion afforded to Lender in connection with such independent approval right shall apply instead).

(a) Borrower shall pay or, if Borrower fails to pay, reimburse Lender upon receipt of notice from Lender, for all actual, reasonable, out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred by Lender in connection with (i) Borrower’s ongoing performance of and compliance with Borrower’s agreements and covenants contained in the Loan Documents on its part to be performed or complied with after the Closing Date, including, without limitation, confirming compliance with environmental and insurance requirements; (ii) Lender’s ongoing performance of and compliance with all agreements and covenants contained in the Loan Documents on its part to be performed or complied with after the Closing Date; (iii) the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and administration of any consents, amendments, waivers or other modifications to the Loan Documents and any other documents or matters requested by Borrower or Guarantor; (iv) the filing and recording fees and expenses, title insurance and reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for providing to Lender all required legal opinions, and other similar expenses incurred, in creating and perfecting the Liens in favor of Lender pursuant to the Loan Documents; (v) enforcing or preserving any rights, in response to third party claims or the prosecuting or defending of any action or proceeding or other litigation, in each case against, under or affecting Borrower, the Loan Documents, the Property or any other security given for the Loan; (vi) enforcing any Obligations of or collecting any payments due from Borrower or Guarantor under the Loan Documents or with respect to the Property or in connection with any refinancing or restructuring of the credit arrangements provided under this Agreement in the nature of a “work-out” or of any Bankruptcy Action; and (vii) protecting Lender’s interest in the Property or any other security given for the Loan; (viii) any assignment of or franchisor/manager consent or approval relating to any comfort letter/tri-party agreement/non-disturbance agreement/assignment of franchise agreement and subordination of franchise fees or similar agreement in connection with an assignment, pledge, participation or transfer of the Loan; provided, however, that Borrower shall not be liable for the payment of any such costs and expenses to the extent the same arise by reason of the gross negligence, illegal acts, fraud or willful misconduct of Lender, as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. Any costs due and payable to Lender may be paid, at Lender’s election in its sole discretion upon prior notice to Borrower unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, in which case such prior notice shall not be required, from any amounts in the Cash Management Account.

(b) Borrower shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Lender Indemnified Parties from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for any Lender Indemnified Party in connection with any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding commenced or threatened, whether or not such Lender Indemnified Party shall be designated a party thereto), that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against any Lender Indemnified Party in any manner relating to or arising out of (i) any default or breach by Borrower of its Obligations under, or any material misrepresentation by Borrower contained in, the Loan Documents; (ii) the use or intended use of the proceeds of the Loan; (iii) any materials or information provided by or on behalf of Borrower, or contained in any documentation approved by Borrower; (iv) ownership of the Security Instruments, the Property or any interest therein, or receipt of any Rents; (v) any accident, injury to or death of persons or loss of or damage to property occurring in, on or about the Property or on the adjoining sidewalks, curbs, adjacent property or adjacent parking areas, streets or ways; (vi) any use, nonuse or condition in, on or about the Property or on adjoining sidewalks, curbs, adjacent property or adjacent parking areas, streets or ways; (vii) performance of any labor or services or the furnishing of any materials or other property in respect of the Property; (viii) any failure of the Property to comply with any Legal Requirement; (ix) any claim by brokers, finders or similar persons claiming to be entitled to a commission in connection with any Lease or other transaction involving the Property or any part thereof, or any liability asserted against such Lender Indemnified Party with respect thereto; and (x) the claims of any lessee of any portion of the Property or any Person acting through or under any lessee or otherwise arising under or as a consequence of any Lease (collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”); provided, however, that Borrower shall not have any obligation to the Lender Indemnified Parties hereunder to the extent that such Indemnified Liabilities arise (i) from the gross negligence, illegal acts, fraud or willful misconduct of the Lender Indemnified Parties, as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction or (ii) after a foreclosure or Lender’s acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure in respect of all or any portion of the Properties securing the Loan (as to the Properties so foreclosed), so long as such Indemnified Liabilities do not result from (x) any act or circumstance occurring prior to such foreclosure or Lender’s acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure, as applicable, or (y) any act of Borrower or any of its agents, Affiliates or employees. To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify, defend and hold harmless set forth in the preceding sentence may be unenforceable because it violates any law or public policy, Borrower shall pay the maximum portion that it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by the Lender Indemnified Parties. The provisions of Section 11.13(a) and this Section 11.13(b) shall survive any payment or prepayment of the Loan and any foreclosure or satisfaction of the Security Instruments.

(c) Subject to Section 9.5 hereof, Borrower hereby agrees to pay for or, if Borrower’s fails to pay, to reimburse Lender for, any fees imposed, and costs and expenses incurred, by any Rating Agency in connection with any Rating Agency review of the Loan or any consent, approval, waiver or confirmation obtained from such Rating Agency pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Loan Documents, and Lender shall be entitled to require payment of such fees, costs and expenses as a condition precedent to obtaining any such consent, approval, waiver or confirmation.

Section 11.14 Schedules Incorporated. The Schedules and Exhibits annexed hereto are hereby incorporated herein as a part of this Agreement with the same effect as if set forth in the body hereof.

Section 11.15 Offsets, Counterclaims and Defenses.

Section 11.16 No Joint Venture or Partnership; No Third Party Beneficiaries.

(a) Borrower and Lender intend that the relationships created under the Loan Documents be solely that of borrower and lender. Nothing herein or therein is intended to create a joint venture, partnership, tenancy-in-common, or joint tenancy relationship between Borrower and Lender nor to grant Lender any interest in the Property other than that of mortgagee, beneficiary or lender.

(b) The Loan Documents are solely for the benefit of Lender and Borrower and nothing contained in the Loan Documents shall be deemed to confer upon anyone other than Lender any right to insist upon or to enforce the performance or observance of any of the Obligations contained herein or therein. All conditions to the obligations of Lender to make the Loan (and disburse Reserve Funds) hereunder are imposed solely and exclusively for the benefit of Lender and no other Person shall have standing to require satisfaction of such conditions in accordance with their terms or be entitled to assume that Lender will refuse to make the Loan (or make any disbursement of Reserve Funds) in the absence of strict compliance with any or all thereof and no other Person shall under any circumstances be deemed to be a beneficiary of such conditions, any or all of which may be freely waived in whole or in part by Lender if, in Lender’s sole discretion, Lender deems it advisable or desirable to do so.

Section 11.17 Publicity and Confidentiality.

(a) All news releases, publicity or advertising by any Borrower or their Affiliates through any media intended to reach the general public which refers to the Loan Documents or the financing evidenced by the Loan Documents, to any Lender, the Affiliate of any Lender that acts as the issuer with respect to a Securitization or any of their other Affiliates shall be subject to the prior written approval of Lender; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower shall be entitled without Lender’s consent, to make disclosures necessary in order to comply with Legal Requirements applicable to Borrower, Guarantor or any of their Affiliates. Lender shall be permitted to share any information provided by Whitehall hereunder with the investment banking firms, lenders, investors, assignees of the Loan, Rating Agencies, accounting firms, law firms and other third-party advisory firms involved with the Loan and the Loan Documents or the applicable Secondary Market Transaction, provided that such third parties are subject to confidentiality agreements reasonably acceptable to Whitehall.

(b) Lender agrees, for the sole benefit of Whitehall (and not any successor to or assign of Whitehall), that any reports, statements or other information required to be delivered or provided under this Agreement, under the Loan Documents, or under a Replacement Guaranty and furnished at any time and from time to time by Borrower, Preferred Equity Investor, or a guarantor under a Replacement Guaranty and relating to Whitehall (“Furnished Information”) which is financial information with respect to Whitehall which is provided to Lender by or on behalf of Borrower, Preferred Equity Investor or Whitehall and which when delivered to Lender is specifically identified in writing as confidential (such information “Confidential Furnished Financial Information”) shall be kept confidential; except that summary financial information regarding Whitehall, including statements as to net worth, liquidity, total assets under management and similar statements of financial wherewithal with respect to Whitehall (“Summary Financial Information”), may be included in any Disclosure Document and may be disclosed to investment banking firms, lenders, Servicers, investors, assignees of the Loan, Rating Agencies, accounting firms, law firms and other third-party advisory firms involved with the Loan and the Loan Documents or the applicable Secondary Market Transaction, provided that such parties are subject to confidentiality agreements reasonably acceptable to Whitehall. In addition, any other Confidential Furnished Financial Information may also be disclosed to any Rating Agency, underwriter or NRSRO; provided (i) each Rating Agency or underwriter to which such information is disclosed has executed its usual and customary confidentiality agreement and (ii) any NRSRO desiring access to any secured website containing such information shall, as a condition to its access to, have either furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission the certification required under Rule 17g-5(e) of the Exchange Act or be required to agree to (or “click through”) such website’s confidentiality provisions. Nothing herein shall preclude Lender from disclosing any Confidential Furnished Financial Information (A) as required by any applicable Legal Requirement, (B) which is already publicly available as a result of disclosure by any other party, (C) in response to any order of any court or other Governmental Authority, or (D) if Lender is required to do so in connection with any litigation or similar proceeding; provided that in the case of clause (A), (C) or (D), Lender shall exercise reasonable efforts to give prior written notice of such requirement to Whitehall (to the extent it is lawful to do so) in order to permit Whitehall to, and shall reasonably cooperate, provided such cooperation shall be at no cost or expense to Lender, with Whitehall in its efforts to, seek a protective order at Whitehall’s sole cost and expense). Confidential Furnished Financial Information shall in no event be deemed to include Furnished Information pertaining to Whitehall’s investment in the Properties, including without limitation, the ownership structure of Borrower.

Section 11.18 Waiver of Marshalling of Assets. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Borrower, for itself and its successors and assigns, waives all rights to a marshalling of the assets of Borrower, Borrower’s members or partners, as applicable, and others with interests in Borrower, and of the Property, and shall not assert any right under any laws pertaining to the marshalling of assets, the sale in inverse order of alienation, homestead exemption, the administration of estates of decedents, or any other matters whatsoever to defeat, reduce or affect the right of Lender under the Loan Documents to a sale of the Property for the collection of the Obligations without any prior or different resort for collection or of the right of Lender to the payment of the Obligations out of the net proceeds of the Property in preference to every other claimant whatsoever.

Section 11.19 Waiver of Offsets/Defenses/Counterclaims. Borrower hereby waives the right to assert a counterclaim, other than a compulsory counterclaim, in any action or proceeding brought against it by Lender or its agents or otherwise to offset any obligations to make the payments required by the Loan Documents. No failure by Lender to perform any of its obligations hereunder shall be a valid defense to, or result in any offset against, any payments which Borrower is obligated to make under any of the Loan Documents.

Section 11.20 Conflict; Construction of Documents; Reliance. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and any of the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Agreement shall control. The parties hereto acknowledge that they were represented by competent counsel in connection with the negotiation, drafting and execution of the Loan Documents and that such Loan Documents shall not be subject to the principle of construing their meaning against the party which drafted same. Borrower acknowledges that, with respect to the Loan, Borrower shall rely solely on its own judgment and advisors in entering into the Loan without relying in any manner on any statements, representations or recommendations of Lender or any parent, subsidiary or Affiliate of Lender. Lender shall not be subject to any limitation whatsoever in the exercise of any rights or remedies available to it under any of the Loan Documents or any other agreements or instruments which govern the Loan by virtue of the ownership by it or any parent, subsidiary or Affiliate of Lender of any equity interest any of them may acquire in Borrower, and Borrower hereby irrevocably waives the right to raise any defense or take any action on the basis of the foregoing with respect to Lender’s exercise of any such rights or remedies. Borrower acknowledges that Lender engages in the business of real estate financings and other real estate transactions and investments which may be viewed as adverse to or competitive with the business of Borrower or its Affiliates.

Section 11.21 Brokers and Financial Advisors.

(a) Borrower hereby represents that it has dealt with no financial advisors, brokers, underwriters, placement agents, agents or finders in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Borrower shall indemnify, defend and hold Lender harmless from and against any and all claims, liabilities, costs and expenses of any kind (including Lender’s attorneys’ fees and expenses) in any way relating to or arising from a claim by any Person that such Person acted on behalf of Borrower or Lender in connection with the transactions contemplated herein. The provisions of this Section 11.21 shall survive the expiration and termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Obligations. For the avoidance of doubt, the indemnity set forth in this Section 11.21 shall inure to the benefit of each Lender that has held an interest in the Loan at any time during the Term, including the initial named Lender hereunder.

(b) Lender may pay additional compensation, fees, commissions or other payments to Broker relating to the origination, sale and/or securitization of the Loan, in addition to any other compensation, fees, commissions or other payments which may be paid by Borrower or any other party directly to Broker. Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that (i) the payment of any such compensation, fees, commissions or other payments are in addition to any other compensation, fees, commissions or other payments which may be paid by Borrower or any other party directly to Broker, (ii) the payment of any such compensation, fees, commissions or other payments may create a potential conflict of interest for Broker in its relationship with Borrower, and Lender is not responsible for any recommendation, services or advice given to Borrower by Broker, and (iii) no fiduciary or other special relationship exists or will exist between Borrower and Lender other than as lender and borrower. Borrower (A) acknowledges that (1) such compensation, fees, commissions or other payments may include a direct, one-time payment of an origination or similar fee, certain payments based on volume and/or size of referrals, profit-sharing payments and/or an ongoing financial interest in the Loan (including by acting as sub-servicer for the Loan) and (2) Borrower has had an opportunity to discuss the specifics of any compensation, fees, commissions or other payments with Broker to the extent Borrower deemed necessary and Borrower has independently determined to proceed with the Loan and (B) consents to any such arrangement and the payment by Lender to Broker of any such compensation, fees, commissions or other payments.

Section 11.22 Exculpation. Subject to the qualifications below, Lender shall not enforce the liability and obligation of Borrower to perform and observe the Obligations contained in the Note, this Agreement, the Security Instruments or the other Loan Documents by any action or proceeding wherein a money judgment shall be sought against Borrower, except that Lender may bring a foreclosure action, an action for specific performance or any other appropriate action or proceeding to enable Lender to enforce and realize upon its interest under the Note, this Agreement, the Security Instruments and the other Loan Documents, or in the Property, the Gross Revenue, or any other collateral given to Lender pursuant to the Loan Documents; provided, however, that, except as specifically provided below, any judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be enforceable against Borrower only to the extent of Borrower’s interest in the Property, in the Gross Revenue and in any other collateral given to Lender, and Lender, by accepting the Note, this Agreement, the Security Instruments and the other Loan Documents, shall not xxx for, seek or demand any deficiency judgment against Borrower or Guarantor (whose liability shall be determined in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Guaranty) in any such action or proceeding under or by reason of or under or in connection with the Note, this Agreement, the Security Instruments or the other Loan Documents. The provisions of this Section 11.22 shall not, however, (a) constitute a waiver, release or impairment of any obligation evidenced or secured by any of the Loan Documents; (b) impair the right of Lender to name Borrower as a party defendant in any action or suit for foreclosure and sale under the Security Instruments; (c) affect the validity or enforceability of any of the Loan Documents or any guaranty made in connection with the Loan or any of the rights and remedies of Lender thereunder; (d) impair the right of Lender to obtain the appointment of a receiver; (e) impair the enforcement of the Assignment of Leases; (f) constitute a prohibition against Lender to seek a deficiency judgment against Borrower in order to fully realize the security granted by the Security Instruments (in which event such deficiency judgment shall be used solely to realize on such collateral) or to commence any other appropriate action or proceeding in order for Lender to exercise its remedies against the Property; or (g) constitute a waiver of the right of Lender to enforce the liability and obligation of Borrower, by money judgment or otherwise, to the extent of any loss, damage, cost, expense, liability, claim or other obligation incurred by Lender (including attorneys’ fees and costs reasonably incurred) arising out of or in connection with the following:

(i) the breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or indemnification provision in the Environmental Indemnity and any indemnification of Lender contained therein;

100

(iii) the misappropriation or conversion by or on behalf of Borrowers of any of the following in violation of the terms of this Agreement: (A) any Insurance Proceeds paid by reason of any loss, damage or destruction to the Property, (B) any Awards or other amounts received in connection with the Condemnation of all or a portion of the Property, or (C) any Gross Revenue (including security deposits, advance deposits or any other deposits);

(v) the failure to pay charges (including charges for labor or materials) that can create Liens on any portion of the Property (except to the extent (i) sufficient Reserve Funds allocable to such charges were on deposit and the same were not disbursed by Lender therefor in violation of the terms and conditions of the Loan Documents, (ii) such charges are the subject of a bona fide dispute in which Borrower is contesting the amount or the validity thereof in accordance with the terms of this Agreement), or (iii) in respect of any Liens or charges other than those incurred with respect to PIP Work, Gross Revenue is insufficient to pay the same; provided, however, that the foregoing exceptions shall not apply if (A) the labor, materials or other charges were contracted for in violation of this Agreement (including not obtaining any required Lender consent) or (B) the labor, materials or other charges were for matters unrelated to so-called “life/safety” issues and contracted for when Borrower knew there would not be sufficient remaining cash flow or applicable Reserve Funds to pay for such charges;

(vi) the failure to (A) pay Taxes or (B) obtain and maintain the fully paid for Policies in accordance with Section 5.1 hereof, provided that Borrower shall not be liable to the extent (i) Gross Revenue from the Property is insufficient to pay the same or (ii) funds to pay for Taxes or Insurance Premiums, as applicable, are available in the Tax Account or the Insurance Account, as applicable, and Lender failed to pay the same;

Section 11.25 Servicer.

(a) At the option of Lender, the Loan may be serviced by a master servicer, primary servicer, special servicer and/or trustee (any such master servicer, primary servicer, special servicer and trustee, together with its agents, designees or nominees, collectively, “Servicer”) selected by Lender and Lender may delegate all or any portion of its responsibilities under the Loan Documents to the Servicer pursuant to a pooling and servicing agreement, servicing agreement, special servicing agreement and/or other agreement providing for the servicing of one or more mortgage loans (collectively, the “Servicing Agreement”) between Lender and Servicer. Borrower shall be responsible for any reasonable set-up fees and any other initial costs relating to or arising under the Servicing Agreement; provided, however, that Borrower shall not be responsible for payment of scheduled monthly servicing fees due to Servicer under the Servicing Agreement. In addition, Borrower shall pay (i) any fees and expenses of Servicer (including, without limitation, out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees and disbursements) in connection with any release of the Property or a portion thereof, any prepayment, defeasance, transfer, assumption, amendment or modification of the Loan, any documents or other matters requested by Borrower or Guarantor, any special servicing or workout of the Loan or enforcement of the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, any advances made by Servicer and interest on such advances, any liquidation fees in connection with the exercise of any or all remedies permitted under this Agreement and (ii) the costs of all property inspections and/or appraisals of the Property (or any updates to any existing inspection or appraisal) that a Servicer may be required to obtain (other than the cost of regular annual inspections required to be borne by Servicer under the Servicing Agreement); provided, however, that Borrower shall not be responsible for payment of any fees or expenses required to be borne by, and not reimbursable to, Servicer. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Servicer shall be entitled to reimbursement of costs and expenses as and to the same extent (but without duplication) as Lender is entitled thereto pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents. Borrower’s obligations under this Section 11.25 are secured by the Security Instruments.

(b) Upon notice thereof from Lender, Servicer shall have the right to exercise all rights of Lender and enforce all obligations of Borrower and Guarantor under the Loan Documents.

(c) Provided Borrower shall have received notice from Lender of Servicer’s address, Borrower shall deliver, and cause to be delivered, to Servicer duplicate originals of all notices and other documents and instruments which Borrower and/or Guarantor deliver to Lender pursuant to the Loan Documents. No delivery of any such notices or other documents shall be of any force or effect unless delivered to Lender and Servicer as provided in this Section 11.25(c).
