Code) of the REMIC Trust established in connection with the last Securitization involving any portion of the Loan.
(ii) Conditions to Defeasance. Borrower may cause a Release upon the satisfaction of the following conditions (all as reasonably approved by Lender):
(A) no Event of Default shall exist under any of the Loan Documents;
(B) not less than forty-five (45) (but not more than ninety (90) days prior written notice shall be given to Lender specifying a date (such date being on a Payment Due Date) on which the Defeasance Collateral (as hereinafter defined) is to be delivered (the “Release Date”);
(C) all accrued and unpaid interest and all other sums due under the Note, this Loan Agreement and under the other Loan Documents up to the Release Date including, without limitation, all fees, costs and expenses incurred by Lender and its agents in connection with such release (including, without limitation, reasonable legal fees and expenses for the review and preparation of the Defeasance Pledge Agreement (as defined below) and of the other materials described in Section 2.05(b)(ii)(D) below and any related documentation, and any servicing fees, Rating Agency fees or other costs related to such release), shall be paid in full on or prior to the Release Date;
(D) Borrower shall deliver to Lender on or prior to the Release Date:
1. The Defeasance Collateral which meets all requirements of subsection 2.05(b)(iii) below and is owned by Borrower, free and clear of all liens and claims of third-parties.
2. A written certification of an independent certified public accounting firm (reasonably acceptable to Lender), confirming that the Defeasance Collateral will generate amounts sufficient to make all Scheduled Debt Payments as they fall due under the Note, including full payment due on the Note on the Maturity Date.
3. A pledge and security agreement in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Lender (“Defeasance Pledge Agreement”) and financing statements which pledge and create a first priority security interest in the Defeasance Collateral in favor of Lender.
4. Confirmation in writing from Lender’s custodian that it has received all of the Defeasance Collateral for the account and benefit of Lender.
19
5. A written certification from Borrower which confirms that, following Defeasance, Borrower continues to satisfy the “single purpose entity” requirements of this Loan Agreement.
6. Such legal opinions given by Borrower and/or any Successor Borrower reasonably acceptable to Lender or other counsel reasonably acceptable to Lender as Lender may require to confirm (i) that the Defeasance Collateral and the proceeds thereof have been validly pledged to Lender, that the Defeasance Pledge Agreement and other Loan Documents after the Defeasance are enforceable against Borrower in accordance with the respective terms and Lender has a perfected first priority security interest in the Defeasance Collateral, (ii) in the event of a bankruptcy proceeding or similar occurrence with respect to Borrower, none of the Defeasance Collateral nor any proceeds thereof will be property of Borrower’s estate under Section 541 of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar statute and the grant of security interest therein to Lender shall not constitute an avoidable preference under Section 547 of the Bankruptcy Code or applicable state law, (iii) the release of the lien of the Security Instrument and the pledge of Defeasance Collateral will not directly or indirectly result in or cause any REMIC that then holds the Note to fail to maintain its status as a REMIC and (iv) the defeasance will not cause any REMIC to be an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940.
7. Forms of all documents necessary to release the Property from the liens created by the Security Instrument and related UCC financing statements (collectively, “Release Instruments”), each in appropriate form required by the state in which the Property is located.
8. Such other certificates, confirmations, documents or instruments as Lender reasonably deems necessary in connection with the Defeasance, including, without limitation, a Rating Confirmation.
(iii) Purchase and Ownership of the Defeasance Collateral. The “Defeasance Collateral” must consist only of U.S. Obligations that provide for (A) redemption payments to occur prior, but as close as possible, to all successive Payment Due Dates occurring after the Release Date and (B) deliver redemption proceeds at least equal to the amount of principal and interest due on the Note on such Payment Due Date including full payment of all obligations under the Note on the Maturity Date or Open Date (“Scheduled Debt Payments”). The Defeasance Collateral shall be arranged such that redemption payments received from the Defeasance Collateral are paid directly to Lender to be applied on account of the Scheduled Debt Payments. Unless otherwise agreed in writing by Lender, the pledge of the Defeasance Collateral shall be effectuated through the book-entry facilities of a qualified securities intermediary designated by Lender (which may be Lender itself or an Affiliate of Lender if such party qualifies as a securities intermediary) in conformity with all applicable laws.
20
(iv) Successor Borrower Option. Borrower, at Borrower’s expense, has the right to designate an accommodation borrower (“Successor Borrower”) which satisfies Lender’s then current requirements for a “single purpose entity” to assume at the time of Defeasance ownership of the Defeasance Collateral and liability for all of Borrower’s obligations under this Loan Agreement, the Defeasance Pledge Agreement and the other Loan Documents (to the extent that liability thereunder survives repayment of the Loan and release of the Property. Such transfer and assumption shall be evidenced by a duly executed, written agreement reasonably satisfactory to Lender, whereupon Borrower and Guarantor (subject to satisfaction of all requirements of this Section 2.05(b)(ii)) shall be relieved from liability in connection with the Loan (except for those obligations which, by the express terms of the Loan Documents, survive payment of the Loan which shall be assumed by Successor Borrower). Notwithstanding any contrary provision in this Loan Agreement, no assumption fee is required upon a transfer of the Loan in accordance with this Section. If a Successor Borrower assumes Borrower’s obligations, Lender may require as a condition to Defeasance, such additional legal opinions as Lender reasonably deems necessary to confirm the valid creation and authority of the Successor Borrower (including a nonconsolidation opinion), the assignment and assumption of the Loan and Defeasance Collateral between Borrower and Successor Borrower, and the enforceability of the assignment documents and of the Loan Documents as the obligation of Successor Borrower, to be issued by counsel to Borrower and/or any Successor Borrower reasonably acceptable to Lender or other counsel reasonably acceptable to Lender.
(v) Intentionally Deleted.
(vi) Defeasance Costs and Expenses. Borrower shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with Defeasance, which payment is required prior to Lender’s issuance of the Release and whether or not Defeasance is completed. Such expenses include, without limitation, the cost incurred by Lender to obtain Rating Confirmation contemplated by Section 2.05(b)(ii)(D)(8), the reasonable fees and disbursements of Lender’s legal counsel and a processing fee to cover Lender’s administrative costs to process Borrower’s Defeasance request. Lender reserves the right to require that Borrower post a deposit to cover costs which Lender reasonably anticipates will be incurred.
(c) Prohibited Prepayment Prior to Open Date. Except as otherwise set forth in Section 2.05(d), if payment of all or any part of the principal balance of the Loan is tendered by Borrower, a purchaser at foreclosure, a Guarantor, or any other Person prior to the Open Date, whether by reason of acceleration of the Loan or otherwise (a “Prohibited Prepayment”), such tender shall be deemed an attempt to circumvent the prohibition against prepayment set forth in Section 2.05(a) and, at Lender’s option, shall be an Event of Default. If a Prohibited Prepayment occurs and is accepted voluntarily or otherwise by Lender, then, in addition to all other rights and remedies available to Lender upon an Event of Default, a Prohibited Prepayment Fee (as defined below) shall be due to compensate Lender for damages suffered as a result of the Prohibited Prepayment, such amount shall be due in addition to the outstanding principal balance, all accrued and unpaid interest and other outstanding amounts due under the Loan Documents. The “Prohibited Prepayment Fee” shall be a prepayment premium equal to the greater of:
21
(i) one percent (1%) of the outstanding principal balance of Note, or
(ii) the excess, if any, of (A) the present value (“PV”) of all scheduled interest and principal payments due on each Payment Due Date in respect of the Loan for the period from the date of such accepted Prohibited Payment to the Maturity Date, including the principal amount of the Loan scheduled to be due on the Maturity Date, discounted at an interest rate per annum equal to the Index (defined below), based on a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months, over (B) the principal amount of the Loan outstanding immediately before such accepted Prohibited Prepayment [i.e., (PV of all future payments) - (principal balance at time of acceleration)]. The foregoing amount shall be calculated by Lender and shall be conclusive and binding on Borrower (absent manifest error).
For purposes hereof, “Index” means the average yield for “treasury constant maturities” published by the Federal Reserve Board in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (519) (“FRB Release”), for the second full week preceding the date of acceleration of the Maturity Date for instruments having a maturity coterminous with the remaining term of the Loan. If the FRB Release is no longer published, Lender shall select a comparable publication to determine the Index. If there is no Index for instruments having a maturity coterminous with the remaining term of the Loan, then the weighted average yield to maturity of the Indices with maturities next longer and shorter than such remaining average life to maturity shall be used, calculated by averaging (and rounding upward to the nearest whole multiple of 1/100 of 1% per annum, if the average is not such a multiple) the yields of the relevant Indices (rounded, if necessary, to the nearest 1/100 of 1% with any figure of 1/200 of 1% or above rounded upward).
(d) Prepayment as a Result of a Casualty or Condemnation. Prepayments arising from Lender’s application of insurance proceeds upon the occurrence of a Casualty or the application of a condemnation award upon the occurrence of a Condemnation may be made prior to the Open Date without being deemed a Prohibited Prepayment and, whenever made, without payment of the Prohibited Prepayment Fee.
(e) Notice Irrevocable. Notwithstanding any provision of this Loan Agreement to the contrary, Borrower’s notice of Defeasance in accordance with subsection 2.05(b) above shall be irrevocable, and the principal balance to be prepaid shall be absolutely and unconditionally due and payable on the date specified in such notice.

Upon the occurrence of a Trigger Event, and until the occurrence of a Lockbox Suspension, amounts on deposit in the Lockbox Account shall be
22
transferred each Business Day to the Cash Management Account to be applied in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Cash Management Agreement.
ARTICLE 4
ESCROW AND RESERVE REQUIREMENTS
Section 4.01 Creation and Maintenance of Escrows and Reserves.
(a) Control of Reserve Accounts. On the Closing Date, each of the Reserve Accounts shall be established by Lender. Each Reserve Account required under this Loan Agreement shall be a custodial account established by Lender, and, at Lender’s option, funds deposited into a Reserve Account may be commingled with other money held by Lender or may be an Eligible Account. Each Reserve Account shall be under the sole dominion and control of Lender, and Borrower shall not have any right to withdraw funds from a Reserve Account. Unless otherwise expressly provided in this Loan Agreement, Borrower shall not be entitled to any earnings or interest on funds deposited in the Insurance Premium Escrow Account. The Reserve Accounts, other than the Insurance Premium Escrow Account, shall be interest-bearing accounts, provided, however, that interest paid or payable with respect to said accounts may not be based on the highest rate of interest payable by Lender on deposits and shall not be calculated based on any particular external interest rate or interest rate index, nor shall any such interest reflect the interest rate utilized by Lender to calculate interest payable on deposits held with respect to any particular loan or borrower or class of loans or borrowers, and Lender shall have no liability with respect to the amount of interest paid and/or loss of principal, and the parties agree that with respect to each Reserve Account other than the Insurance Premium Escrow Account, Earnout Reserve Account, and the Vacant Space Reserve Account, Lender shall be entitled to retain an administrative fee equal to the lesser of (i) one percent (1%) per annum on the amounts on deposit in the Tax Escrow Account, Immediate Repair Escrow Account, Replacement Reserve Account, TI/LC Reserve Account and TI/LC Designated Reserve Account, or (ii) the amount of interest earned per annum on the amounts on deposit in the Tax Escrow Account, Immediate Repair Escrow Account, Replacement Reserve Account, TI/LC Reserve Account, and TI/LC Designated Reserve Account. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender may, in addition to any and all other rights and remedies available to Lender, apply any sums then present in any or all of the Reserve Accounts to the payment of the Debt in any order as determined by Lender in its sole discretion, provided that Lender shall not apply Reserve Accounts to the prepayment of the principal amount of the Loan until acceleration of the Loan.
(b) Funds Dedicated to Particular Purpose. Funds held in a Reserve Account are not to be used to fund Reserve Items contemplated by a different Reserve Account, and Borrower may not use and Lender shall have no obligation to apply funds from one Reserve Account to pay for Reserve Items contemplated by another Reserve Account. For example, (i) funds held in the Immediate Repair Escrow Account shall not be used to pay for Replacements, Tenant Improvements or Leasing Commissions; (ii) funds held in the Replacement Reserve Account shall not be used to pay for Immediate Repairs, Tenant Improvements or Leasing Commissions; and (iii) funds held in the TI/LC Reserve Account shall not be used to pay for Immediate Repairs or Replacements.
23
(c) Release of Reserves Upon Payment of Debt. Upon payment in full of the Loan, Lender shall disburse to Borrower all unapplied funds held by Lender in the Reserve Accounts pursuant to this Loan Agreement.
(d) Release of Individual Reserve Account after Full Performance of Reserve Items. Lender shall disburse to Borrower all unapplied funds remaining in the Immediate Repair Escrow Account upon receipt of evidence satisfactory to Lender that (i) Borrower has completed, in the manner required by this Loan Agreement, all Reserve Items to be funded by such Reserve Account, and (ii) no Liens exist against the Property with respect to such Reserve Items. Lender shall not be obligated to make any such disbursement when an Event of Default exists, and Lender may deduct from any such disbursement all outstanding amounts then due and unpaid to Lender under the Loan Documents.
(e) No Obligation of Lender. Nothing in this Loan Agreement shall: (i) make Lender responsible for making or completing any Reserve Item; (ii) require Lender to advance, disburse or expend funds in addition to funds then on deposit in the related Reserve Account to make or complete any Reserve Item; or (iii) obligate Lender to demand from Borrower additional sums to make or complete any Reserve Item.
(f) No Waiver of Default. No disbursements made from a Reserve Account at the time when a Borrower default or Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing shall be deemed a waiver or cure by Lender of that default or Event of Default, nor shall Lender’s rights and remedies be prejudiced in any manner thereby.
(g) Insufficient Amounts in a Reserve Account. Notwithstanding that Lender has the right to require Borrower to pay any deficiency in a Reserve Account if Lender determines that amounts in a Reserve Account are insufficient, the insufficiency of funds in a Reserve Account, or Lender’s application of funds in a Reserve Account following an Event of Default other than for funding of the Reserve Items, shall not relieve Borrower from its obligation to perform in full each of its: (i) obligations and covenants under this Loan Agreement; (ii) agreements or covenants with tenants under the Leases; and (iii) agreements with leasing agents.
Section 4.02 Tax Escrow.
(a) Deposits to the Tax Escrow Account. On the Closing Date, Borrower has deposited such amount as is noted on the closing statement relating to the closing of the Loan for Taxes to the Tax Escrow Account (which is the amount determined by Lender that is necessary to pay when due Borrower’s obligation for Taxes upon the due dates established by the appropriate tax or assessing authorities during the next ensuing twelve (12) months, taking into consideration the Monthly Tax Deposits to be collected from the first Payment Due Date to the due date for payment of Taxes). Thereafter, beginning on the first Payment Due Date and on each Payment Due Date thereafter, Borrower shall deliver to Lender the Monthly Tax Deposit.
(b) Disbursement from Tax Escrow Account. Provided amounts in the Tax Escrow Account are sufficient to pay the Taxes then due and no Event of Default exists, Lender shall pay the Taxes as they become due on their respective due dates on behalf of Borrower by

In making any payment of Taxes, Lender may do so according to any xxxx, statement or estimate obtained 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.
(c) Surplus or Deficiency in Tax Escrow Account. If amounts on deposit in the Tax Escrow Account collected for an annual tax period exceed the Taxes actually paid during such tax period, Lender shall, in its discretion, return the excess to Borrower or credit the excess against the payments Borrower is to make to the Tax Escrow Account for the next tax period. If amounts on deposit in the Tax Escrow Account collected for an annual tax period are insufficient to pay the Taxes actually due during such tax period, Lender shall notify Borrower of the deficiency and, within ten (10) days thereafter, Borrower shall deliver to Lender such deficiency amount. If, however, Borrower receives notice of any such deficiency on a date that is within ten (10) days prior to the date that Taxes are due, Borrower will deposit the deficiency amount within one (1) business day after its receipt of such deficiency notice.
(d) Changes in Amount of Taxes Due; Changes in the Monthly Tax Deposit. Borrower shall notify Lender immediately of any changes to the amounts, schedules and instructions for payment of any Taxes of which it has or obtains knowledge and authorizes Lender or its agent to obtain the bills for Taxes directly from the appropriate taxing authority. If the amount due for Taxes shall increase and Lender reasonably determines that amounts on deposit in the Tax Escrow Account will not be sufficient to pay Taxes due for an annual tax period, Lender shall notify Borrower of such determination and of the increase needed to the Monthly Tax Deposit. Commencing with the Payment Due Date specified in such notice from Lender, Borrower shall make deposits at the increased amount of the Monthly Tax Deposit.
Section 4.03 Insurance Premium Escrow.
(a) Deposits to Insurance Premium Escrow Account. On the Closing Date, Borrower has deposited from the proceeds of the Loan such amount as is noted on the closing statement relating to the closing of the Loan to the Insurance Premium Escrow Account (which is the amount determined by Lender that is necessary to pay when due Borrower’s obligation for Insurance Premiums during the next ensuing twelve (12) months, taking into consideration the Monthly Insurance Deposits to be collected from the first Payment Due Date to the due date for payment of such Insurance Premiums). Thereafter, beginning on the first Payment Due Date and on each Payment Due Date thereafter, Borrower shall deliver to Lender the Monthly Insurance Deposit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender hereby agrees to waive the foregoing requirement of an Insurance Premium Escrow Account so long as each of the following conditions is satisfied at all times, as determined by Lender in its reasonable discretion: (i) the Property remains covered under a blanket insurance policy that satisfies all insurance requirements hereunder, and all such insurance remains in full force and effect without any reduction in coverage and no notice of termination or cancellation has been issued; (ii) Borrower submits to Lender a certificate of insurance for such blanket insurance policy prior to each expiration thereof; (iii) Borrower submits to Lender paid insurance premium receipts or other documentation evidencing timely payment of all Insurance Premiums prior to the due dates thereof; and (iv) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

Provided amounts in the Insurance Premium Escrow Account are sufficient to pay the Insurance Premiums then due and no Event of Default exists, Lender shall pay the Insurance Premiums as they become due on their respective due dates on behalf of Borrower by applying funds held in the Insurance Premium Escrow Account to the payments of Insurance Premiums then due. In making any payment relating to Insurance Premiums, Lender may do so according to any xxxx, statement or estimate procured from the insurer without inquiry into the accuracy of such xxxx, statement or estimate.
(c) Surplus or Deficiency in Insurance Premium Escrow Account. If amounts on deposit in the Insurance Premium Escrow Account collected for an annual period exceed the Insurance Premiums actually paid during such period, Lender shall, in its discretion, return such excess to Borrower or credit such excess against the payments Borrower is to make to the Insurance Premium Escrow Account for the next annual period. If amounts on deposit in the Insurance Premium Escrow Account collected for an annual premium period are insufficient to pay the Insurance Premiums actually due during such annual period Lender shall notify Borrower of the deficiency and, within ten (10) days thereafter, Borrower shall deliver to Lender such deficiency amount. If, however, Borrower receives notice of any such deficiency on a date that is within ten (10) days prior to the date that Insurance Premiums are due, Borrower will deposit the deficiency amount within one (1) business day after its receipt of such deficiency notice.
(d) Changes in Insurance Premium Amounts; Change in Monthly Deposit Amount.

Section 4.08 Earnout Reserve Account.
(a) Earnout Reserve. Borrower acknowledges that, based on Lender’s determination of the Property’s economic performance, Borrower qualifies for a loan in the amount of $17,000,000.00 on the Closing Date (the “Qualified Loan Amount”). Lender has funded the Maximum Loan Amount to Borrower based on Borrower’s delivery to Lender on the Closing Date of $1,000,000.00 as a deposit to the Earnout Reserve Account (“Earnout Reserve Deposit”).
(b) Disbursement of Earnout Reserve Deposit. If on or before the expiration of the Earnout Period Borrower delivers to Lender evidence indicating satisfaction in Lender’s discretion of the Earnout Criteria that supports the entire Maximum Loan Amount, Lender shall disburse to Borrower the full amount of the Earnout Reserve Deposit. In addition, during the Earnout Period, no more frequently than quarterly, Borrower may request partial disbursements of the Earnout Reserve Deposit upon delivery to Lender of evidence indicating in Lender’s discretion that the Earnout Criteria are satisfied, and that the cash flow from the Property is sufficient to support a Loan amount in excess of the Qualified Loan Amount. The amount of each partial disbursement shall be the difference between the largest Loan amount that Lender determines in its discretion can satisfy the Earnout Criteria at the time of calculation, and the Qualified Loan Amount. For purposes of example only, if Lender calculates the Debt Service Coverage Ratio and Loan to Value Ratio and determines that the Loan amount that supports such calculations is $17,200,000.00, and all other Earnout Criteria are satisfied, then the partial disbursement to Borrower from the Earnout Reserve Account shall be $200,000.00.
(c) Failure to Achieve Earnout Criteria Prior to Expiration of Earnout Period. If Lender determines in its discretion that the Earnout Criteria have not been satisfied to support the Maximum Loan Amount prior to the expiration of the Earnout Period, (i) Lender shall have no obligation to extend the Earnout Period or pay Borrower the undisbursed portion of the Earnout Reserve Deposit, (ii) Lender shall, at Borrower’s request, either (A) maintain the Earnout Reserve Account as an additional cash collateral account with respect to the Loan for the term of the Loan, or (B) apply the Earnout Reserve Deposit toward reducing the outstanding principal balance of the Note (in which event Lender shall reset the schedule of payments of principal and interest due under the Loan to account for the then outstanding principal balance and remaining term of the Loan). If Lender applies the Earnout Reserve Deposit against the outstanding principal balance of the Note, any such prepayment of principal shall be deemed a
29
Prohibited Prepayment and shall be subject to the Prohibited Prepayment Fee hereunder, which shall be payable by Borrower from funds other than the Earnout Reserve Deposit.
(d) Event of Default; No Waiver. Lender shall have no obligation to disburse any portion of the Earnout Reserve Deposit at any time during which an Event of Default exists or if any event or condition has occurred and is continuing that would be an Event of Default if notice had been given or applicable grace/cure periods had expired (or both). No disbursement of any portion of the Earnout Reserve Deposit made by Lender at the time when a default or Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing shall be deemed a waiver or cure by Lender of that default or Event of Default, nor shall Lender’s rights and remedies be prejudiced in any manner thereby. Lender shall have no obligation to disburse any portion of the Earnout Reserve Deposit after the Earnout Period.
(e) Escrow Account Requirements. The Earnout Reserve Account shall be a custodial account established by Lender, and, at Lender’s option, may be commingled with other money held by Lender. The Earnout Reserve Account shall be under the sole dominion and control of Lender, and Borrower shall not have any right to withdraw funds therefrom.
(f) Letter of Credit. In lieu of cash being deposited with Lender as the Earnout Reserve Deposit pursuant to Section 4.08(a) hereof, Borrower may elect (at any time during the term of the Loan) to replace the amount of the Earnout Reserve Deposit with a Letter of Credit (as defined in Section 6.07 hereof) in the amount of the Earnout Reserve Deposit, less any amounts disbursed pursuant to Section 4.08(b), and upon the delivery by Borrower of the Letter of Credit in the amount of the Earnout Reserve Deposit, Lender shall release to Borrower the cash then held in the Earnout Reserve Deposit. In addition to the draw rights described in Section 6.07, Lender may draw on the Letter of Credit and apply proceeds in accordance with Section 4.08(c) above. Lender shall deliver the Letter of Credit to Borrower upon achievement of the Earnout Criteria prior to the expiration of the Earnout Period in accordance with Section 4.08(b). If a Letter of Credit is delivered to Lender, in lieu of receipt of partial disbursements of the Earnout Reserve Deposit described in Section 4.08(b) above, Borrower may instead (no more frequently than on a quarterly basis in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 4.08(b) above), replace the Letter of Credit with a Letter of Credit in an amount less than $1,000,000.00, based upon Lender’s calculation of the difference between the Qualified Loan Amount and the largest Loan amount that Lender determines in its discretion can satisfy the Earnout Criteria at the time of calculation. For purposes of example only, if Lender calculates the Debt Service Coverage Ratio and Loan to Value Ratio and determines that the Loan amount that supports such calculations is $17,200,000.00, and all other Earnout Criteria is satisfied, then the Borrower may replace the Letter of Credit with a Letter of Credit in the amount of $800,000, rather than $1,000,000.00.
Section 4.09 Vacant Space Reserve Account.
(a) Deposits to the Vacant Space Reserve Account. On the Closing Date, Borrower shall deposit $266,500.00 with Lender as a deposit to the Vacant Space Reserve Account (“Vacant Space Reserve Deposit”).
30
(b) Partial Disbursements of Vacant Space Reserve Deposit. At Borrower’s election, Lender shall make partial disbursements of the Vacant Space Reserve Deposit to Borrower, not to exceed the amount of $22,208.33 in any calendar month. Such partial disbursements shall be made within ten (10) Business Days after written request from Borrower, but shall not be made more than one (1) time in any calendar month. Prior to the first (1st) day of September of each calendar year, Borrower or Guarantor shall make additional deposits to the Vacant Space Reserve Account (which shall become part of the “Vacant Space Reserve Deposit”) in amounts sufficient to restore the balance of the Vacant Space Reserve Account to $266,500.00, or such lesser amount as may be determined in accordance with Section 4.09 (c) (“Vacant Space Reserve Account Threshold”).
(c) Full Disbursement of Vacant Space Reserve Deposit. Lender shall disburse all funds held in the Vacant Space Reserve Account directly to Borrower, within ten (10) Business Days after written request from Borrower, so long as each of the following conditions and performance criteria have been satisfied to Lender’s reasonable discretion (collectively, the “Vacant Space Disbursement Conditions”): (i) Borrower has delivered to Lender written evidence, reasonably satisfactory to Lender, that Borrower has leased at least 13,000 square feet of the Vacant Space to one or more tenants for a term, at a rental rate and upon other terms that are reasonably acceptable to Lender; (ii) each tenant of the Vacant Space is in occupancy, open for business and paying full rent under its respective Lease; (iii) Borrower has delivered to Lender estoppel certificates executed by each tenant confirming the items described in (i) and (ii) above and such other items reasonably requested by Lender; and (iv) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing hereunder. In the event that the Vacant Space Disbursement Conditions are satisfied with respect to less than 13,000 square feet of the Vacant Space, then the Vacant Space Reserve Account Threshold shall be reduced by $20.50 per square foot of the Vacant Space for which the Vacant Space Disbursement Conditions have been satisfied.
(d) Event of Default; No Waiver. Lender shall have no obligation to disburse any portion of the funds held in the Vacant Space Reserve Account at any time during which an Event of Default exists or if any event or condition has occurred and is continuing that would be an Event of Default if notice had been given or applicable grace/cure periods had expired (or both). No disbursement of any portion of the Vacant Space Reserve Deposit made by Lender at the time when a default or Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing shall be deemed a waiver or cure by Lender of that default or Event of default, nor shall Lender’s rights and remedies be prejudiced in any manner thereby.

Unless otherwise agreed to by Lender, Borrower may not submit, and Lender shall not be required to make, more than one (1) disbursement from each Reserve Account during any calendar month. No Disbursement Request shall be made for less than $5,000.00 or the total cost of the Reserve Items, if less.
(d) No Existing Event of Default. Lender may refuse to make any disbursement if an Event of Default exists as of the date on which Borrower submits the Disbursement Request or on the date the disbursement is actually to be made.
(e) Responsible Officer Certificate. Lender must receive a certificate, signed by a Responsible Officer of Borrower (and, at Lender’s option, also signed by Borrower’s project architect or engineer, which may be an employee of an Affiliate of Borower, if the cost of a single Reserve Item or the aggregate amount of the Disbursement Request exceeds $50,000), which certifies that:

(g) Absence of Liens.

Section 5.03 Direct Payments to Suppliers and Contractors. Lender, at its option, may make disbursements directly to the supplier or contractor to be paid in connection with the Disbursement Request. Borrower’s execution of this Loan Agreement constitutes an irrevocable direction and authorization for Lender to make requested payments directly to the supplier or contractor, notwithstanding any contrary instructions from Borrower or notice from Borrower of a dispute with such supplier or contractor. Each disbursement so made by Lender shall satisfy Lender’s obligation under this Loan Agreement.

45
(b) Right to Contest. After prior written notice to Lender, Borrower, at its own expense, may contest by appropriate legal proceeding, promptly initiated and conducted in good faith with due diligence, the amount or validity or application in whole or in part of any of the Taxes or Other Charges, provided that: (i) no Event of Default exists; (ii) such proceeding suspends the collection of such Taxes or Other Charges and the Property will not be in danger of being sold for such unpaid Taxes or Other Charges, or Borrower has paid all of such Taxes or Other Charges under protest; (iii) such proceeding is permitted under and is conducted in accordance with the provisions of any other instrument to which Borrower or the Property is subject and does not constitute a default thereunder; (iv) if Borrower has not paid the disputed amounts in full under protest, Borrower shall deposit with Lender cash (or other security as may be approved, in writing, by Lender) in an amount Lender deems sufficient to insure the payment of any such Taxes or Other Charges together with interest and penalties thereon, if any, provided that after a Securitization, one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the contested amount (plus anticipated penalty and interest) shall be deposited with Lender; (v) Borrower furnishes to Lender all other items reasonably requested by Lender; and (vi) upon a final determination thereof, Borrower promptly pays the amount of any such Taxes or Other Charges, together with all costs, interest and penalties which may be payable in connection therewith, and Borrower shall be permitted to use the amount so deposited with lender to make such payment, and to the extent any of such funds remain with Lender following such payment, if no Event of Default shall have occurred, Lender shall disburse all remaining funds to Borrower.

Section 9.03 Insurance.
(a) Insurance Required During the Loan Term. Borrower, at Borrower’s expense, shall obtain and maintain during the term of the Loan such insurance coverage (including, without limitation, type, minimum coverage amount, maximum deductible and acceptable exclusions) for Borrower and the Property, as set forth in Sections 9.03(a)(i) through (a)(ix) below, and with respect to any additional insurance coverage, in accordance with Section 9.03(a)(ix) for insurable hazards or casualties commonly insured against in the case of property similarly situated as the Property, as Lender deems reasonably necessary considering, among other things, the location and occupancy of the Property and all uses of the Property. Lender reserves the right to periodically review the insurance coverage Lender has required (types, minimum coverage amounts and maximum deductibles) and to increase or otherwise change the required coverage should Lender deem an increase or change to be reasonably necessary under then existing circumstances. Without limiting Lender’s rights hereunder in any respect, it shall be deemed reasonable for Lender to require no less coverage than the coverage in place on the Closing Date. Subject to the foregoing, Lender shall require the following insurance coverage to be effective during the term of the Loan, coverage amounts and deductibles to be acceptable to Lender:
46
(i) Property Insurance. Casualty insurance must be maintained for the Improvements and all Personal Property insuring against any peril now or hereafter included within the classification “all risks of physical loss” and in an amount at all times sufficient to prevent Borrower or Lender from becoming a co-insurer within the terms of the applicable policies but in any event at all times equal to the full replacement cost (as reasonably determined and adjusted from time to time by Lender) of the Improvements and Personal Property (without taking into account any depreciation and exclusive of excavations, footings and foundations, landscaping and paving), without any exclusions for windstorms. In all cases where (A) the outstanding principal balance on the Note exceeds $5 million, or (B) any part of the Improvements constitutes a legal non-conforming use under the Requirements of Law, such insurance must include “Ordinance of Law Coverage,” with “Time Element,” “Loss to the Undamaged Portion of the Building,” “Demolition Cost” and “Increased Cost of Construction” endorsements, in the amount of coverage requested by Lender. The policy must name Lender as an insured mortgagee under a standard mortgagee clause. The deductible shall not exceed $25,000.00.
(ii) Insurance against Acts of Terrorism. The insurance coverage provided under Section 9.03(a) in effect as of the Closing Date and during the Loan term must also insure against loss or damage resulting from acts of terrorism or comparable coverage acceptable to Lender in its discretion with a deductible that does not exceed $25,000, provided such coverage is commercially available for properties similar to the Property and located in or around the region in which the Property is located.
(iii) Boiler and Machinery Insurance. Broad form boiler and machinery insurance (without exclusion for explosion) and systems breakdown coverage must be maintained, covering all steam boilers, pipes, turbines, engines or other pressure vessels, electrical machinery, HVAC equipment, refrigeration equipment and other similar mechanical equipment located in, on or about the Property in such amount per accident equal to the full replacement cost thereof (as reasonably determined and adjusted from time to time by Lender) and also providing coverage against loss of occupancy or use arising from any breakdown thereof. The policy must name Lender as an insured under a standard joint loss clause and provide that all proceeds are to be paid to Lender.
(iv) Flood Insurance. Flood insurance must be maintained if any portion of the Improvements is located in an area identified by the Federal Emergency Management Agency or any successor thereto as a 100-year flood zone or special hazard area. The required coverage amount shall be equal to the full replacement cost of the Improvements and Personal Property (without taking into account any depreciation and exclusive of excavations, footings and foundations, landscaping and paving). Such coverage may need to be purchased through excess carriers if the required coverage exceeds the maximum insurance available for the Property under the then-current guidelines published by the Federal Emergency Management Agency or any successor thereto. The policy must name Lender as an insured mortgagee under a standard mortgagee clause.
47
(v) Business Interruption. Business interruption insurance must be maintained in an amount sufficient to provide the lost rental income for the Property for a period of not less than 1 year from the date of Casualty, with a 6 month extended period of indemnity. For purposes of this coverage, “rental income” means the sum of (A) the total, then ascertainable Rents payable under the Leases and (B) the total ascertainable amount of all other payments to be received by Borrower from third parties which are the legal obligation of the tenants, reduced to the extent such amounts would not be received because of operating expenses not incurred during the period that any portion of the Property cannot be occupied as a result of the Casualty. The policy must name Lender as a loss payee and provide that all proceeds are to be paid to Lender.
(vi) Liability Insurance. Commercial general liability insurance coverage must be maintained, covering bodily injury or death and property damage, including all legal liability to the extent insurable and all court costs, legal fees and expenses, arising out of, or connected with, the possession, use, leasing, operation, maintenance or condition of the Property in such amounts generally required by institutional lenders for properties comparable to the Property but in no event for a combined single limit of less than $2 million and $1 million per occurrence. The required coverage must provide for claims to be made on an occurrence basis. The policy must name Lender as an additional insured. The insurance coverage required under this subsection (vi) may be satisfied by a layering of Commercial General Liability, Umbrella and Excess Liability Policies, but in no event will the Commercial General Liability policy be written for an amount less than $1,000,000 per occurrences and $2,000,000 aggregate for bodily injury and property damage liability. Lender may require umbrella coverage which will be evaluated on a case by case basis but in no event shall the amount of umbrella coverage be less than $5,000,000.00.
(vii) Workers’ Compensation Insurance. Workers’ compensation insurance must be maintained with respect to all employees employed at the Property, in compliance with the laws of the state in which the Property is located.
(viii) Earthquake Insurance. If the Property is located in an area in which the probable maximum loss of the Property is 20% or greater, as determined by Lender in its reasonable discretion, earthquake insurance must be maintained in form, amount and with deductibles satisfactory to Lender.
(ix) Other Coverage. Without limiting Lender’s rights under this Section 9.03(a), Lender may also require Borrower to maintain builder’s risk insurance during any period of construction, renovation or alteration of the Improvements, motor vehicles liability insurance in connection with all owned or non-owned motor vehicles used in connection with the management or maintenance of the Property, “dram shop,” or similar coverage if alcoholic beverages are sold at the Property, fidelity bond coverage for employees handling Rents and other income from the Property, environmental insurance and other insurance with respect to the Property or on any replacements or substitutions thereof or additions thereto against other insurable hazards or casualties which at the time are commonly insured against in the case of property similarly situated,
48
due regard being given to the height and type of buildings, their construction, location, use and occupancy.
(b) Qualified Insurers; Lender’s Consent. All insurance must be issued under valid and enforceable policies of insurance acceptable to Lender and issued by one or more domestic primary insurers authorized to issue insurance in the state in which the Property is located. Each insurer must have a minimum claims paying ability rating of “A” or better from S&P or an A.M. Best rating of A-IX or better. Lender’s approval of insurance coverage at any time is not a representation or warranty concerning the sufficiency of any coverage or the solvency of any insurer, and Lender shall not be responsible for, nor incur any liability for, the insolvency of the insurer or other failure of the insurer to perform.
(c) Policy Requirements. All policies must be for a term of not less than a year and name Lender as a beneficiary of such coverage as provided in this Section 9.03 or otherwise identified by Lender. Each policy must also contain: (i) an endorsement or provision that permits recovery by Lender notwithstanding the negligent or willful acts or omission of Borrower; (ii) a waiver of subrogation endorsement as to Lender to the extent available at commercially reasonable rates; (iii) a provision that prohibits cancellation or termination before the expiration date, denial of coverage upon renewal, or material modification without at least thirty (30) days prior written notice to Lender in each instance; and (iv) effective waivers by the insurer of all claims for Insurance Premiums against Lender. If the required insurance coverage is to be provided under a blanket policy covering the Property and other properties and assets not part of the Property, such blanket policy must specify the portion of the total coverage that is allocated to the Property and any sublimit in such blanket policy which is applicable to the Property and shall otherwise comply in all respects with the requirements of this Section 9.03.
(d) Evidence of Insurance.
Borrower must deliver to Lender on or before the Closing Date either (i) the original of each insurance policy required hereunder, (ii) a copy of each original policy certified by the insurance agent to be a true, correct and complete copy of the original; (iii) the insurance binder (Xxxxx Form 25 provided by the insurance carrier) (as well as proof of payment of the first years premium); (iv) a certificate of insurance (Xxxxx Form 27 or Xxxxx Form 28 provided by the insurance agent or, where such Xxxxx forms are not available, a certificate of insurance that confirms the same rights as are confirmed by form Xxxxx Form 27 or Xxxxx Form 28), (v) an original letter from the insurance carrier on the primary layer, signed by an officer of such carrier, attaching the form of insurance policy pursuant to which coverage will be provided (and, if applicable, an original letter from each insurance carrier on the excess layers, signed by an officer of each such carrier, agreeing that it is bound to the form of insurance policy delivered by the primary carrier (i.e., agreeing to “follow form” to the primary carrier); and (A) each such letter must set forth the date by which the policy will be delivered to the Lender, which must not be more than sixty (60) days following closing and (B) include as attachments all mortgagee/loss payee/additional insured endorsements. Evidence of the required coverage for the first year of the Loan (as well as proof of payment of the first year’s premium) must be delivered to Lender on or before the Closing Date and thereafter not less than thirty (30) days prior to the expiration date of each policy.
49
(e) Lender’s Right to Obtain Insurance for Borrower. If Borrower fails to deliver to Lender the evidence of insurance coverage required by this Loan Agreement and does not cure such deficiency within ten (10) days after Lender’s notice of nondelivery, an Event of Default shall be deemed to have occurred (without further cure period or notice) and Lender may procure such insurance at Borrower’s expense, without prejudice to Lender’s rights upon an Event of Default. All amounts advanced by Lender to procure the required insurance shall be added to principal, secured by the Security Instrument and bear interest at the Default Rate. Lender shall not be responsible for, nor incur any liability for the insolvency of the insurer or other failure of the insurer to perform, even though Lender has caused the insurance to be placed with the insurer after Borrower’s failure to furnish such insurance.
(f) Additional Insurance. Borrower shall not obtain insurance for the Property in addition to that required by Lender without Lender’s prior written consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld provided that (i) Lender is named insured on such insurance, (ii) Lender receives evidence of such insurance as required by subsection (d) above, and (iii) such insurance complies with all of the applicable requirements set forth in this Loan Agreement.
Section 9.04 Obligations upon Condemnation or Casualty. If the Property, or any portion thereof, shall be damaged or destroyed by a Casualty or become subject to any Condemnation, the following shall apply:
(a) Generally. Borrower shall promptly notify Lender, in writing, of any actual or threatened Condemnation or of any Casualty that damages or renders unusable the Property or any part thereof and, except as otherwise provided below, shall promptly and diligently pursue Borrower’s claim for a Condemnation award or insurance proceeds, as applicable. Borrower shall not make any agreement in lieu of Condemnation or accept any Condemnation award without Lender’s prior written consent, unless such claim is in an amount of $100,000 or less. Borrower shall not accept any settlement of insurance proceeds with respect to a Casualty without Lender’s prior written consent, unless such proceeds are in an amount of $100,000 or less. If requested by Lender, Borrower agrees to provide copies to Lender of all notices or filings made or received by Borrower in connection with the Casualty or Condemnation or with respect to collection of the insurance proceeds or Condemnation award, as applicable. Notwithstanding that a Casualty or Condemnation has occurred, or that rights to a Condemnation award or insurance proceeds are pending, Borrower shall continue to pay the Loan at the time and in the manner provided in this Loan Agreement.
(b) Lender Right to Pursue Claim. Borrower hereby grants Lender the authority, at Lender’s option, either: (i) to settle and adjust any claim arising with respect to the Casualty or Condemnation without Borrower’s consent, or (ii) to allow Borrower to settle and adjust such claim; provided that, in either case, the insurance proceeds or Condemnation award, as applicable, is paid directly to Lender. Borrower hereby appoints Lender its attorney-in-fact with full power of substitution (and which shall be deemed to be coupled with an interest and irrevocable until the Loan is paid and the Security Instrument is discharged of record, with Borrower hereby ratifying all that its said attorney shall do by virtue thereof) to endorse any agreements, instruments or drafts received in connection with a Casualty or Condemnation. If any portion of the insurance proceeds or Condemnation award, as applicable, should be paid
50
directly to Borrower, Borrower shall be deemed to hold such amounts in trust for Lender and shall promptly remit such amounts to Lender. If the Property is sold, through foreclosure or otherwise, prior to the receipt of the Condemnation 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 proceeds of such sale in an amount sufficient to pay the Loan in full. All expenses incurred by Lender in the settlement and collection of amounts paid with respect to a Casualty or Condemnation (including, without limitation, reasonable legal fees and expenses) shall be deducted and reimbursed to Lender from the insurance proceeds or Condemnation award, as applicable, prior to any other application thereof. The insurance proceeds or Condemnation award paid or payable on account of a Casualty or Condemnation, as applicable (including all business interruption insurance proceeds paid as a result of such Casualty or Condemnation), less expenses to be reimbursed to Lender hereunder, is referred to herein as the “Restoration Proceeds.”
(c) Application of Restoration Proceeds; Restoration Obligations. Except as specifically hereafter provided in subsection (d) below, Lender may, in its sole discretion, either (i) apply the Restoration Proceeds to payment of the Loan, whether or not then due and payable, or (ii) hold and release the Restoration Proceeds to Borrower (A) for the costs of Restoration undertaken by Borrower in accordance with this Loan Agreement and (B) to cover any shortfall in Operating Income as a result of such Casualty or Condemnation that is necessary to pay in full the debt service payments due from Borrower on each Payment Due Date and other Operating Expenses falling due during the period until Restoration is completed; provided, however, that Lender shall have no obligation to release Restoration Proceeds to fund amounts contemplated by clause (B) unless (1) Lender is satisfied that Restoration Proceeds are sufficient to pay in full the estimated cost to complete Restoration and (2) all Operating Expenses to be funded with Restoration Proceeds are approved by Lender. If Lender applies Restoration Proceeds to payment of the Loan and the Loan is still outstanding, (i) interest will continue to accrue and be due on the unpaid principal at the Applicable Interest Rate, (ii) the principal and interest payments shall be recast by Lender to reflect the reduced balance of the principal indebtedness of the Loan, and (iii) no Prohibited Prepayment Fee shall be due in connection with such application. If Lender makes the Restoration Proceeds available to Borrower for Restoration, Borrower shall diligently pursue Restoration so as to restore the Property to at least equal value and substantially the same character as existed immediately prior to such Casualty or Condemnation. All plans and specifications for the Restoration and all contractors, subcontractors and materialmen to be engaged in the Restoration, as well as the contracts under which they have been engaged, shall be subject to Lender’s prior review and approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld so long as the plans and specifications are not materially different from the original structure, except as necessary to comply with then-current Requirements of Law. Lender may engage, at Borrower’s expense, an independent engineer or inspector to assist Lender in its review of the approvals requested of Lender in connection with the Restoration and to periodically inspect the Restoration in progress and upon substantial completion.
(d) Condition to Release of Restoration Proceeds for Restoration. Lender agrees to make the Restoration Proceeds available to Borrower for Restoration as long as:
51
(i) The Restoration Proceeds recovered are less than the outstanding principal balance of the Loan.
(ii) No Event of Default exists.
(iii) Borrower demonstrates to Lender’s satisfaction that the Restoration Proceeds are sufficient to pay in full the estimated cost to complete Restoration and any shortfalls in Operating Income as a result of such Casualty or Condemnation that are anticipated until Restoration is substantially completed, or, if the Restoration Proceeds are determined by Lender to be insufficient to pay such costs in full, Borrower deposits with Lender, in cash or by a cash equivalent acceptable to Lender, the additional amount estimated by Lender to be necessary to pay the full cost of Restoration (“Restoration Deficiency Deposit”).
(iv) The Casualty or Condemnation has not occurred in the eighteen (18) months prior to the Maturity Date.
(v) Restoration can be completed not later than the earlier of (A) twelve (12) months from the date the Casualty or Condemnation occurred, (B) the earliest date by which completion is required under any Major Lease, (C) the earliest date by which completion is required under the Requirements of Law to preserve the right to rebuild the Improvements as they existed prior to the Casualty or Condemnation or (D) the expiration of Borrower’s business interruption insurance.
(vi) If a Condemnation has occurred, less than 10% of the Land is taken and the land taken is along the perimeter or periphery of the Land, and no portion of the Improvements are taken.
(vii) If a Casualty has occurred, less than 25% of the total floor area of the Improvements is damaged or rendered unusable by the Casualty and Borrower demonstrates to Lender’s satisfaction that a reasonable means of access exists to the Property and within the Improvements unaffected by the Casualty.
(viii) Borrower demonstrates to Lender’s satisfaction that the tenants under Major Leases will continue occupancy of the Property without rent abatement following Restoration and that, upon completion of Restoration, the net cash flow of the Property will be restored to a level sufficient to cover all Operating Expenses of the Property, including, without limitation, supporting a Debt Service Coverage Ratio at least equal to, or greater than, the greater of (A) the Debt Service Coverage Ratio existing as of the Closing Date, or (B) the Debt Service Coverage Ratio which existed as of the date immediately preceding such Casualty or Condemnation.
(ix) The Property and its use after completion of Restoration will be in compliance with, and permitted under, all Requirements of Law.
(e) Disbursement Procedure; Holdback. If the Restoration Proceeds will be made available by Lender to Borrower for Restoration and the estimated cost of Restoration approved by Lender (together with all other amounts then held by Borrower pursuant to this
52
subsection (e)) is less than $250,000, Lender shall disburse the entire amount of the Restoration Proceeds to Borrower, and Borrower hereby covenants and agrees to use the Restoration Proceeds solely for Restoration performed in accordance with this Loan Agreement. If, however, the estimated cost of Restoration approved by Lender (together with all other amounts then held by Borrower pursuant to this subsection (e)) is more than $250,000, Lender shall retain the Restoration Proceeds in an interest bearing Reserve Account, provided, however, that interest paid or payable with respect to such Reserve Account held by or on behalf of Lender may not be based on the highest rate of interest payable by Lender on deposits and shall not be calculated based on any particular external interest rate or interest rate index, nor shall any such interest reflect the interest rate utilized by Lender to calculate interest payable on deposits held with respect to any particular loan or borrower or class of loans or borrowers, and Lender shall have no liability with respect to the amount of interest paid and/or loss of principal, and the parties agree that Lender shall be entitled to retain an administrative fee equal to one percent (1%) per annum on the amounts on deposit in such interest-bearing Reserve Account. If the Restoration Proceeds are retained by Lender and deposited into such Account, periodic disbursements from such Reserve Account shall be made to Borrower as follows:
(i) Disbursements for Restoration.
(A) Lender will disburse Restoration Proceeds for the costs of Restoration to, or as directed by, Borrower from time to time during the course of the Restoration, upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to Lender that (1) all materials installed and work and labor performed in connection with the Restoration have been paid in full (except to the extent that they are to be paid out of the requested disbursement), and (2) there exist no notices of pendency, stop orders, mechanic’s or materialman’s liens or notices of intention to file same, or any other Liens of any nature whatsoever on the Property arising out of the Restoration which have not either been fully bonded and discharged of record or, in the alternative, fully insured to Lender’s reasonable satisfaction by the title company insuring the Lien of the Security Instrument.
(B) Lender may limit disbursements to not more than one (1) per month.
(C) Lender may hold-back from each requested disbursement an amount equal to the greater of (1) ten percent (10%) of the requested disbursement or (2) the amount which Borrower is permitted to withhold under its contract with the contractor or supplier to be paid with the proceeds of such disbursement (either a “Restoration Holdback”). Amounts held as the Restoration Holdback shall be disbursed once: (1) Lender receives satisfactory evidence that Restoration has been fully completed in accordance with all Requirements of Law; (2) Lender receives satisfactory evidence that all Restoration costs have been paid in full or will be fully paid from the remaining Restoration Proceeds and the Restoration Holdback; and (3) Lender receives, at Lender’s option, a search of title to the Property, effective as of the date on which the Restoration Holdback is to be disbursed, showing no Liens other than the Permitted Encumbrances or an endorsement to its Title Insurance Policy which
53
updates the effective date of such policy to the date on which the Restoration Holdback is to be disbursed and which shows no Liens since the date of recordation of the Security Instrument (other than the Permitted Encumbrances).
(D) Notwithstanding subsection (C) above, Lender may release from the Restoration Holdback payments to a contractor or supplier if: (1) Lender receives satisfactory evidence that such contractor has satisfactorily completed its contract with Borrower; (2) such contractor or supplier delivers to Lender an acceptable written waiver of its mechanic’s lien, in recordable form; and (3) Borrower provides written consent from the surety company, if any, which has issued a payment or performance bond with respect to such contractor or supplier.
(ii) Disbursements for Shortfalls in Operating Income. Provided that Lender determines that the Restoration Proceeds are sufficient to pay in full the estimated cost to complete Restoration, Lender will disburse Restoration Proceeds not reserved for Restoration to pay the shortfall in Operating Income necessary to pay (A) first, the debt service payments due from Borrower on each Payment Due Date falling due from the date of the Casualty or Condemnation through the date on which Restoration is substantially completed and (B) then, any Operating Expenses approved by Lender. Lender may require satisfactory evidence that Operating Expenses to be paid have been incurred and may issue payments directly to the Person entitled to the payment claimed as an Operating Expense.
(iii) Restoration Proceeds Deemed Insufficient. If, in Lender’s judgment, at any time during Restoration, the undisbursed portion of the Restoration Proceeds, together with the remaining portion of Restoration Proceeds released to Borrower pursuant to this Section 9.04(e), shall not be sufficient to pay the costs remaining for Restoration to be completed or to pay any shortfall in Operating Income needed to pay in full Borrower’s debt service payments on the Loan and Operating Expenses anticipated to be incurred during the period of Restoration, no further disbursement of the Restoration Proceeds will be made until such funds, in cash or by a cash equivalent acceptable to Lender (also called a “Restoration Deficiency Deposit”), are deposited (i) by Borrower, within ten (10) days after Lender’s notice of such deficiency, or (ii) in Lender’s reasonable discretion, following Borrower’s written request, by withdrawing certain funds then held by Lender in the TI/LC Reserve Account or the Replacement Reserve Account and applying such funds to the Restoration Deficiency Deposit. Amounts held by Lender as the Restoration Deficiency Deposit shall be disbursed in accordance with this Section 9.04.
(iv) Consequence of Event of Default. Lender shall not be obligated to disburse Restoration Proceeds or amounts from the Restoration Holdback when an Event of Default exists, and upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and acceleration of the Loan, any undisbursed portion of the Restoration Proceeds (including the Restoration Deficiency Deposit and the Restoration Holdback) may, at Lender’s option, be applied against the Loan, in such order and manner as Lender determines.
54
(v) Surplus Restoration Proceeds After Restoration Completion. Any Restoration Proceeds remaining after full payment of Restoration costs and unpaid expenses due to Lender for which Lender is permitted reimbursement under this Section 9.04 shall be released to Borrower provided no Event of Default exists, and Borrower delivers evidence satisfactory to Lender that (i) Restoration has been fully completed in accordance with all Requirements of Law and (ii) the Property is free and clear of all Liens which may be asserted with respect to the Restoration.
Section 9.05 Inspections and Right of Entry. Lender and its agents may enter the Property upon prior notice to Borrower (notice to be given unless an Event of Default or an emergency exists, as determined by Lender in good faith) to inspect the Property and Borrower’s books and records relating to the Property. In making such entry and inspection, Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts to minimize disturbance to Borrower and tenants of the Property. Lender and its agents shall have access, at all reasonable times, to the Property, including, without limitation, all contracts, plans and specifications, permits, licenses and approvals required or obtained in connection with the Property.
Section 9.06 Leases and Rents.
(a) Right to Enter into New Leases. Borrower may enter into new Leases for space at the Property and renew or extend existing Leases without Lender’s prior written consent provided that each such Lease: (i) is not a Major Lease, is documented using, and does not materially deviate from, the Standard Lease Form (except as set forth in the immediately succeeding paragraph); (ii) provides for rental rates and terms consistent with sound and customary leasing and management practices for similar properties in the geographic area in which the Property is located (unless in the case of a renewal or extension, the rent payable during such renewal term, or a formula or other method to compute such rent, has been specified in the original Lease); (iii) is an arms-length transaction with a tenant that is not an Affiliate of Borrower; (iv) will not have a Material Adverse Effect on the value of the Property taken as a whole; and (v) is subordinate to the Security Instrument (other than with respect to residential leases). All proposed Leases that do not satisfy the requirements set forth in this Section require Lender’s prior written approval at Borrower’s expense (including reasonable legal fees and expenses). Borrower shall promptly deliver to Lender a copy of each Lease (other than a residential lease) entered into after the Closing Date. Lender’s acceptance of Borrower’s copy of any Lease shall not be deemed a waiver of the requirements of this Section if the Lease is not in compliance herewith.
Notwithstanding this Section 9.06(a)(i) to the contrary, Borrower may use a negotiated modified standard form lease that differs from the Standard Form Lease without Lender’s prior written approval so long as (i) such lease is from a regional or national tenant operating multiple high quality retail stores, (ii) the modifications to such lease are commercially reasonable (based upon an analysis of the rental terms of properties of similar size and type in the same geographic area as the Property) and have no material adverse effect upon Lender, and (iii) Borrower delivers a copy of such lease to Lender within thirty days upon its receipt thereof.
(b) Leasing Decisions. Provided no Event of Default exists, so long as the Lease is not a Major Lease (or as a result of any of the following actions to be taken would
55
become a Major Lease) and except as otherwise provided in this Subsection, Borrower may, without Lender’s prior written consent: (i) amend or supplement any Lease or waive any term thereof (including, without limitation, shortening the lease term, reducing rents, granting rent abatements, or accepting a surrender of all or any portion of the leased space); (ii) cancel or terminate any Lease; (iii) consent to a tenant’s assignment of its Lease or subleasing of space; or (iv) amend, supplement, waive or terminate any Lease Guaranty; provided that none of the foregoing actions (taking into account the planned alternative use of the affected space in the case of termination, rent reduction, surrender of space or shortening of term) will have a Material Adverse Effect on the value of the Property taken as a whole and such Lease, as amended, supplemented or waived, is otherwise in compliance with the requirements of Section 9.06(a) hereof. Termination of a Lease (other than a Major Lease) with a tenant who is in default beyond applicable notice and grace/cure periods shall not be considered action which has a Material Adverse Effect on the value of the Property taken as a whole. Any action with respect to any Lease that does not satisfy the requirements set forth in this Section requires Lender’s prior written approval at Borrower’s expense (including reasonable legal fees). Borrower shall promptly deliver to Lender a copy of all instruments documenting the action taken, together with written certification from a Responsible Officer that (x) the copies delivered are true, complete and correct copies of the materials represented thereby and (y) Borrower has satisfied all conditions of this Section. Lender’s acceptance of Borrower’s certification or a copy of such Lease materials shall not be deemed a waiver of the requirements of this Section if the action taken is not in compliance herewith.
(c) Observance of Lessor Obligations. Borrower (i) shall observe and perform all obligations imposed upon the lessor under the Leases and shall not do or permit to be done anything to impair the value of any of the Leases as security for the Loan; (ii) upon Lender’s request, shall promptly send copies to Lender of all notices of default which Borrower shall send or receive (or may have sent or received) under any non-residential Lease; (iii) shall enforce in a commercially reasonable manner all of the material terms, covenants and conditions contained in the Leases to be observed or performed by the tenant; (iv) shall not collect any Rents more than one (1) month in advance (and for this purpose a security deposit shall not be deemed rent collected in advance); and (v) shall not execute any assignment or pledge of the lessor’s interest in any of the Leases or the Rents (other than in connection with the Loan).
Section 9.07 Use of Property. Borrower shall not allow changes in the use of the Property without Lender’s prior written consent. Borrower shall not initiate, join in, or consent to any change in any private restrictive covenant or zoning or land use ordinance limiting or defining the uses which may be made of the Property. If use of all or any portion of the Property is or shall become a nonconforming use, Borrower will not cause or permit the nonconforming use to be discontinued or the nonconforming portion of the Property to be abandoned without Lender’s prior written consent.
Section 9.08 Maintenance of Property. Borrower shall maintain the Property in a good and safe condition and repair. No portion of the Property shall be removed, demolished or materially altered (except for normal repair or replacement) without Lender’s prior written consent. Borrower shall promptly repair or replace any portion of the Property which may become damaged, worn or dilapidated.
56
Section 9.09 Waste. Borrower shall not commit or suffer any waste of the Property or do or permit to be done thereon anything that may in any way impair the value of the Property or invalidate the insurance coverage required hereunder to be maintained by Borrower. Borrower will not, without Lender’s prior written consent, permit any drilling or exploration for or extraction, removal, or production of any minerals from the surface or the subsurface of the Property, regardless of the depth thereof or the method of mining or extraction thereof.
Section 9.10 Compliance with Laws.
(a) Obligation to Perform. Borrower shall promptly and fully comply with all Requirements of Law now or hereafter affecting the Property. Borrower shall notify Lender promptly of Borrower’s knowledge or receipt of any notice related to a violation of any Requirements of Law or of the commencement of any proceedings or investigations which relate to compliance with Requirements of Law. At Lender’s request, Borrower shall provide Lender with copies of all notices, reports or other documents relating to any litigation or governmental investigation relating to Borrower or the Property.
(b) Right to Contest. After prior written notice to Lender, Borrower, at its own expense, may contest by appropriate legal proceedings, promptly initiated and conducted in good faith and with due diligence, the Requirements of Law affecting the Property or alleged violation thereof, provided that: (i) no Event of Default exists; (ii) such proceedings shall be permitted under and be conducted in accordance with the Requirements of Law; (iii) the Property will not be in danger of being sold, forfeited, terminated, cancelled or lost; (iv) non-compliance with such Requirement of Law shall not impose any civil, criminal or environmental liability on Lender or Borrower; (v) Borrower deposits with Lender cash (or other security acceptable to Lender) in such amount as Lender deems sufficient to cover loss or damage that may result from Borrower’s failure to prevail in such contest, provided that after a Securitization, one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the amount estimated by Lender is deposited; (vi) Borrower furnishes to Lender all other items reasonably requested by Lender; and (vii) upon a final determination thereof, Borrower promptly complies with the obligations determined to be applicable, and Borrower shall be permitted to use the amount so deposited with Lender to make such payment, and to the extent any of such funds remain with Lender following such payment, if no Event of Default shall have occurred, Lender shall disburse all remaining funds to Borrower.
Section 9.11 Financial Reports, Books and Records.
(a) Delivery of Financial Statements. Borrower shall, or shall cause Property manager, to keep adequate books and records of account with respect to its financial condition and the operation of the Property, in accordance with cash basis or GAAP, consistently applied (or such other method which is reasonably acceptable to Lender), and shall furnish, or cause to be furnished, the following to Lender, each prepared in such detail as reasonably required by Lender and certified by a Responsible Officer or Property Manager to be true, complete and correct:
57
(i) as soon as available, but in any event within forty-five (45) days after the end of each fiscal quarter, a quarterly Rent Roll providing the required information as of the end of such fiscal quarter;
(ii) as soon as available, but in any event within forty-five (45) days after the end of each fiscal quarter, a quarterly operating statement for the Property detailing the operating income received, operating expenses incurred, the cost of all Immediate Repairs, Replacements and Tenant Improvements and Leasing Commission performed or paid during such quarter, and the Debt Service Coverage Ratio as of the end of such fiscal quarter;
(iii) as soon as available, but in any event within ninety (90) days after the close of Borrower’s fiscal year, (A) an annual Rent Roll, presented on an annual basis consistent with the quarterly Rent Rolls described above; (B) an annual operating statement for the Property presented on an annual basis consistent with the quarterly operating statements described above; (C) an annual balance sheet and profit and loss statement for Borrower; and (D) a statement of change of financial position of Borrower, setting forth in comparative form the figures for the previous fiscal year;
(iv) as soon as available, but in any event at least thirty (30) days prior to the start of each calendar year, an annual operating budget for the Property presented on a monthly basis consistent with the information required in the quarterly operating statement described above which budget shall be delivered to Lender, but shall not be subject to Lender’s prior approval, unless a Trigger Event shall have occurred (the “Approved Budget”);
(v) upon Lender’s request, monthly Rent Roll and operating statements for the Property; and
(vi) such other financial information or property management information (including, without limitation, copies of Borrower’s state and federal tax returns, information on tenants under Leases to the extent such information is available to Borrower, and an accounting of security deposits) as may reasonably be required by Lender from time to time.
(b) Lender Audit Rights. Lender and its agents have the right, upon prior written notice to Borrower (notice to be given unless an Event of Default exists), to examine the records, books and other papers which reflect upon Borrower’s financial condition or pertain to the income, expense and management of the Property and to make copies and abstracts from such materials. Lender also shall have the right, from time to time (but, in the absence of an Event of Default existing, not more than annually) and upon prior notice to Borrower (notice to be given unless an Event of Default exists), to have an independent audit conducted of any of Borrower’s financial information. Lender shall pay the cost of such audit unless Lender performed the audit following the occurrence of an Event of Default, in which case (and in addition to Lender’s other remedies) Borrower shall pay the cost incurred by Lender with respect to such audit upon Lender’s demand. Upon Borrower’s failure to pay such amounts, and in addition to Lender’s remedies for Borrower’s failure to perform, the unpaid amounts shall be
58
added to principal, shall bear interest at the Default Rate until paid in full, and payment of such amounts shall be secured by the Security Instrument and other collateral given to secure the Loan.
(c) Financial Reports from Guarantors and SPE Equity Owner. Borrower shall cause each Guarantor and, at Lender’s request, the SPE Equity Owner, to provide to Lender (i) within ninety (90) days after the close of such party’s fiscal year, such party’s balance sheet and profit and loss statement (or if such party is an individual, within ninety (90) days after the close of each calendar year, such party’s personal financial statements) in form reasonably satisfactory to Lender and certified by such party to be accurate and complete; and (ii) such additional financial information (including, without limitation, copies of state and federal tax returns) as Lender may reasonably require from time to time and in such detail as reasonably required by Lender.
(d) Reporting Default. If a Reporting Default occurs on more than three (3) separate occasions while the Loan is outstanding, it shall be an immediate Event of Default.
Section 9.12 Performance of Other Agreements. Borrower shall observe and perform in a timely manner each and every obligation to be observed or performed by Borrower pursuant to the terms of any agreement or recorded instrument affecting or pertaining to the Property or used in connection with the operation of the Property (including, without limitation, the Operating Agreements. Without limiting the foregoing, Borrower shall (a) give prompt notice to Lender of any notice received by Borrower with respect to any of the Operating Agreements which alleges a default or nonperformance by Borrower thereunder, together with a complete copy of any such notice; (b) enforce, short of termination, performance of the Operating Agreements to be performed or observed, and (c) not terminate or amend, or waive compliance with, any of the Operating Agreements without Lender’s prior written consent, except as may be (i) permitted pursuant to the respective terms thereof or (ii) absent the existence of an Event of Default, done in the ordinary course of business. If the absence of an Operating Agreement that has terminated will have a Material Adverse Effect on the value of the Property, Borrower agrees to enter into a new Operating Agreement in replacement of the terminated Operating Agreement, containing terms and conditions no less favorable to Borrower than the terminated Operating Agreement. Borrower shall notify Lender if Borrower does not replace the terminated Operating Agreement.
Section 9.13 Existence; Change of Name; Location as a Registered Organization. Borrower shall continuously maintain (a) its existence and shall not dissolve or permit its dissolution unless approved by Lender and immediately reconstituted, and (b) its rights and franchises to do business in the state where the Property is located.

59
Section 9.14 Property Management.
(a) Borrower shall cause the Property Manager to manage (or cause to be managed) the Property in a commercially reasonable manner. Borrower shall not remove or replace the Property Manager (which, with respect to a Property Manager which is an Affiliate of Borrower, shall be deemed to occur upon a change of Control of the Property Manager) or modify or waive any material terms of the Property Management Contract without Lender’s prior written consent and, if requested by Lender, a Rating Confirmation. Upon replacement of the Property Manager or sub-property manager, Borrower shall, and shall cause the new manager of the Property to (or new sub-property manager of the Property, as applicable), execute an Assignment of Property Management Contract in form and substance similar to the Assignment of Property Management Contract executed by the Property Manager, provided however, a replacement sub-property manager will not be required to execute an Assignment of Property management Contract so long as the sub-property management agreement provides that (i) Borrower is not liable for the payment of the management fees under the sub-property management agreement, and such payment is payable solely from the Property manager, and (ii) sub-property manager waives any right to place a lien on the Property following a default under the sub-property management agreement. Borrower shall comply with all obligations of Borrower under the Assignment of Property Management Contract. The property management fee and all other fees payable under the Property Management Contract shall not exceed those set forth in the Property Management Contract.
(b) Termination of Property Manager. (i) If Lender, in its reasonable discretion, determines that the Property is not being properly managed in accordance with management practices customarily employed for properties similar to the Property, Lender may deliver written notice to Borrower and Property Manager, which notice shall specify in reasonable detail the grounds for Lender’s determination. If Lender reasonably determines that the conditions specified in Lender’s notice are not remedied to Lender’s reasonable satisfaction by Borrower or Property Manager within thirty (30) days from receipt of such notice or if Borrower or Property Manager have failed to diligently undertake correcting such conditions within such thirty (30) day period, Lender may direct Borrower, at Borrower’s option, to either (A) terminate the Property Management Contract and replace Property Manager with a management company acceptable to Lender or (B) cause the Property Manager to terminate the sub-property management agreement and to replace such sub-property manager with a management company acceptable to Lender.
(ii) If (A) a default has occurred under the Property Management Contract and has continued beyond any applicable notice and/or grace period, (B) Property Manager becomes insolvent, or (C) an Event of Default has occurred, Borrower shall, at the request of Lender, terminate the Property Management Contact and require Property Manager to transfer its responsibilities for the management of the Property to a management company selected by Borrower and reasonably acceptable to Lender.
Section 9.15 ERISA. Borrower shall not engage in any transaction which would cause any obligation or action taken or to be taken hereunder by Borrower (or the exercise by Lender of any of its rights under any of the Loan Documents) to be a non-exempt (under a statutory or administrative class exemption) prohibited transaction under ERISA. Borrower agrees to deliver
60
to Lender such certifications or other evidence throughout the term of the Loan as requested by Lender in its sole discretion to confirm compliance with Borrower’s obligations under this Section 9.15 or to confirm that Borrower’s representations and warranties regarding ERISA remain true.

Borrower shall comply with all Requirements of Law relating to money laundering, anti-terrorism, trade embargos and economic sanctions, now or hereafter in effect, including, without limitation, Anti-Terrorism Laws. Without limiting the foregoing, Borrower shall not take any action, or permit any action to be taken, that would cause Borrower’s representations and warranties in Section 8.28 of this Loan Agreement to become untrue or inaccurate at any time during the term of the Loan. Borrower shall notify Lender promptly of Borrower’s actual knowledge that the representations and warranties in Section 8.28 of this Loan Agreement may no longer be accurate or that any other violation of the foregoing Requirements of Law has occurred or is being investigated by Governmental Authorities. In connection with such an event, Borrower shall comply with all Requirements of Law and directives of Governmental Authorities and, at Lender’s request, provide to Lender copies of all notices, reports and other communications exchanged with, or received from, Governmental Authorities relating to such event. Borrower shall also reimburse Lender for any expense incurred by Lender in evaluating the effect of such an event on the Loan and Lender’s interest in the collateral for the Loan, in obtaining any necessary license from Governmental Authorities as may be necessary for Lender to enforce its rights under the Loan Documents, and in complying with all Requirements of Law applicable to Lender as the result of the existence of such an event and for any penalties or fines imposed upon Lender as a result thereof.
Section 9.17 Deposit of Additional Collateral. Within ten days of Lender’s request following Lender’s determination that (i) Guarantor has failed to satisfy the Net Worth Test or the Liquidity Test and (ii) the Loan to Value Ratio exceeds 75%, Borrower shall deposit the Additional Collateral with Lender.

Borrower agrees to supply all information Lender may request to evaluate a Transfer, including, without limitation, information regarding the proposed transferee’s ownership structure, financial condition and management experience for comparable properties. Borrower acknowledges that Lender may impose conditions to its approval of a

Upon Borrower’s failure to pay such amounts, and in addition to Lender’s remedies for Borrower’s failure to perform, the unpaid amounts shall be added to principal, shall bear interest at the Default Rate until paid in full, and payment of such amounts shall be secured by the Security Instrument and other collateral given to secure the Loan. Upon the occurrence of an assumption of the Loan by an acceptable transferee satisfying all the terms set forth in this subsection, Borrower and Guarantor will be released as of the date of the recordation of the assumption agreement (which shall be executed by Lender, Borrower, Guarantor and such transferee and its replacement guarantor) with respect to obligations under the Loan Documents arising on or after the date of such assumption.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Borrower shall have no right to request and Lender shall have no obligation to grant its consent to any release pursuant this Section 10.04.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 10, (a) no transfer (whether or not such transfer shall constitute a Transfer) shall be made to any Person on the OFAC list or shall result in any failure of Borrower to comply with Anti-Terrorism Laws and (b) in the event any transfer (whether or not such transfer shall constitute a Transfer) results in any Person owning in excess of forty-nine percent (49%) of the ownership interest in Borrower or any SPE Equity Owner (other than a Person who already owned more than 49% of such interests),
62
Borrower shall, prior to such transfer, deliver a new substantive non-consolidation opinion letter with respect to the new equity owners which is acceptable in all respects to Lender and to the Rating Agencies if a Securitization has occurred.

days after written notice from Lender to Borrower; provided that if a default under clause (ii) cannot reasonably be cured within such thirty (30) day period and Borrower has responsibly commenced to cure such default promptly upon notice thereof from Lender and thereafter diligently proceeds to cure same, such thirty (30) day period shall be extended for so long as it shall require Borrower, in the exercise of due diligence, to cure such default, but in no event shall the entire cure period be more than sixty (60) days; or
(s) If (i) Guarantor fails to satisfy the Net Worth Test or Liquidity Test, (ii) the Loan to Value Ratio is greater than 75%, and (iii) Borrower shall have failed to deposit the Additional Collateral with Lender within ten calendar days of Lender’s request.
Section 11.02 Remedies. If an Event of Default occurs, Lender may, at its option, and without prior notice or demand, do and hereby is authorized and empowered by Borrower so to do, any or all of the following:
(a) Acceleration. Lender may declare the entire unpaid principal balance of the Loan to be immediately due and payable. If such acceleration takes place prior to the Open Date, an amount equal to the Prohibited Prepayment Fee shall be added to balance of the Debt.
(b) Recovery of Unpaid Sums. Lender may, from time to time, take legal action to recover any sums as the same become due, without regard to whether or not the Loan shall be accelerated and without prejudice to Lender’s right thereafter to accelerate the Loan or exercise any other remedy, if such sums remain uncollected.
(c) Foreclosure. Lender may institute proceedings, judicial or otherwise, for the complete or partial foreclosure of the Security Instrument or the complete or partial sale of the Property under power of sale or under any applicable provision of law. In connection with any such proceeding, Lender may sell the Property as an entirety or in parcels or units and at such times and place (at one or more sales) and upon such terms as it may deem expedient unless prohibited by law from so acting.
(d) Receiver. Lender may apply for the appointment of a receiver, trustee, liquidator or conservator of the Property, without regard for the adequacy of the security for the Debt or a showing of insolvency, fraud or mismanagement on the part of Borrower. Any receiver or other party so appointed has all powers permitted by law which may be necessary or usual in such cases for the protection, possession, control, management and operation of the Property. Borrower hereby consents, to the extent permitted under applicable law, to the appointment of a receiver or trustee of the Property upon Lender’s request if an Event of Default has occurred. At Lender’s option, such receiver or trustee shall serve without any requirement of posting a bond.
(e) Recovery of Possession. Lender may enter into or upon the Property, either personally or by its agents, and dispossess and exclude Borrower and its agents and servants therefrom (without liability for trespass, damages or otherwise), and take possession of all books, records and accounts relating to the Property, and Borrower agrees to surrender possession of the Property and all other Property, including without limitation, all documents, books, records and accounts relating to the Property, to Lender upon demand. As a
65
mortgagee-in-possession of the Property, Lender shall have all rights and remedies permitted by law or in equity to a mortgagee-in-possession, including, without limitation, the right to charge Borrower the fair and reasonable rental value for Borrower’s use and occupation of any part of the Property that may be occupied or used by Borrower and the right to exercise all rights and powers of Borrower with respect to the Property, whether in the name of Borrower or otherwise (including, without limitation, the right to make, cancel, enforce or modify Leases, obtain and evict tenants, and demand, xxx for, collect and receive all Rents of the Property).
(f) UCC Remedies. Lender may exercise with respect to the Property, each right, power or remedy granted to a secured party under the UCC, including, without limitation, (i) the right to take possession of the Property and to take such other measures as Lender deems necessary for the care, protection and preservation of the Property, and (ii) the right to require that Borrower, at its expense, assemble the Property and make it available to Lender at a convenient place acceptable to Lender. Any notice of sale, disposition or other intended action by Lender with respect to the Property sent to Borrower in accordance with the provisions hereof at least ten (10) days prior to such action, shall constitute reasonable notice to Borrower. Lender shall not have any obligation to clean-up or otherwise prepare the Property for sale.
(g) Apply Funds in Reserve Accounts. Lender may apply any funds then deposited in any or all of the Reserve Accounts and or otherwise held in escrow or reserve by Lender under the Loan Documents (including without limitation Restoration Proceeds) as a credit on the Loan, in such priority and proportion as Lender deems appropriate; provided that Lender shall not apply Reserve Accounts to the prepayment of principal unless it has accelerated the Loan.
(h) Insurance Policies. Lender may surrender any or all insurance policies maintained as required by this Loan Agreement, collect the unearned Insurance Premiums and apply such sums as a credit on the Loan, in such priority and proportion as Lender deems appropriate. Borrower hereby appoints Lender its attorney-in-fact with full power of substitution (and which shall be deemed to be coupled with an interest and irrevocable until the Loan is paid and the Security Instrument is discharged of record, with Borrower hereby ratifying all that its said attorney shall do by virtue thereof) to surrender such insurance policies and collect such Insurance Premiums.
(i) Intentionally Deleted.
(j) Protection of Lender’s Security and Right to Cure. Lender may, without releasing Borrower from any obligation hereunder or waiving the Event of Default, perform the obligation which Borrower failed to perform in such manner and to such extent as Lender deems necessary to protect and preserve the Property and Lender’s interest therein, including without limitation (i) appearing in, defending or bringing any action or proceeding with respect to the Property, in Borrower’s name or otherwise; (ii) making repairs to the Property or completing improvements or repairs in progress; (iii) hiring and paying legal counsel, accountants, inspectors or consultants; and (iv) paying amounts which Borrower failed to pay. Amounts disbursed by Lender shall be added to the Loan, shall be immediately due and payable, and shall bear interest at the Default Rate from the date of disbursement until paid in full.
66
(k) Violation of Laws. If the Property is not in compliance with all Requirements of Laws, Lender may impose additional requirements upon Borrower in connection with such Event of Default including, without limitation, monetary reserves or financial equivalents.
Section 11.03 Cumulative Remedies; No Waiver; Other Security. Lender’s remedies under this Loan Agreement are cumulative (whether set forth in this Article 11 or in any other section of this Loan Agreement) with those in the other Loan Documents and otherwise permitted by law or in equity and may be exercised independently, concurrently or successively in Lender’s sole discretion and as often as occasion therefor shall arise. Lender’s delay or failure to accelerate the Loan or exercise any other remedy upon the occurrence of an Event of Default shall not be deemed a waiver of such right as remedy. No partial exercise by Lender of any right or remedy will preclude further exercise thereof. Notice or demand given to Borrower in any instance will not entitle Borrower to notice or demand in similar or other circumstances (except where notice is expressly required by this Loan Agreement or the other Loan Documents to be given) nor constitute Lender’s waiver of its right to take any future action in any circumstance without notice or demand. Lender may release security for the Loan, may release any party liable therefor, may grant extensions, renewals or forbearances with respect thereto, may accept a partial or past due payment or grant other indulgences, or may apply any other security held by it to payment of the Loan, in each case without prejudice to its rights under the Loan Documents and without such action being deemed an accord and satisfaction or a reinstatement of the Loan. Lender will not be deemed as a consequence of its delay or failure to act, or any forbearance granted, to have waived or be estopped from exercising any of its rights or remedies.
Section 11.04 Enforcement Costs. Borrower shall pay, on written demand by Lender all costs incurred by Lender in (a) collecting any amount payable under the Loan Documents, or (b) enforcing its rights under the Loan Documents, in each case whether or not legal proceedings are commenced or whether legal action is pursued to final judgment. Such fees and expenses include, without limitation, reasonable fees for attorneys, paralegals, law clerks and other hired professionals, a reasonable assessment of the cost of services performed by Lender’s default management staff, court fees, costs incurred in connection with pre-trial, trial and appellate level proceedings, including discovery, and costs incurred in post-judgment collection efforts or in any bankruptcy proceeding. Amounts incurred by Lender shall be added to principal, shall be immediately due and payable, shall bear interest at the Default Rate from the date of disbursement until paid in full, if not paid in full within five (5) days after Lender’s written demand for payment, and such amounts shall be secured by the Security Instrument and other collateral given to secure the Loan.
Section 11.05 Application of Proceeds. The proceeds from disposition of the Property shall be applied by Lender as a credit to the Loan and to recovery or reimbursement of the costs of enforcement (contemplated by Section 11.04 above) in such priority and proportion as Lender determines appropriate.
Section 11.06 Intentionally Deleted.

Section 12.04 No Impairment. Nothing contained in this Article 12 shall impair, release or otherwise adversely affect: (a) any lien, assignment or security interest created by the Loan Documents; (b) any indemnity, personal guaranty, master lease or similar instrument now or hereafter made in connection with the Loan (including, without limitation, the Environmental Indemnity and Guaranty); (c) Lender’s right to have a receiver or trustee appointed for the Property; (d) Lender’s right to name Borrower as a defendant in any foreclosure action or judicial sale under the Security Instrument or other Loan Documents or in any action for specific performance or otherwise to enable Lender to enforce obligations under the Loan Documents or to realize upon Lender’s interest in any collateral given to Lender as security for the Loan; or (e) Lender’s right to a judgment on the Note against Borrower if necessary to (i) enforce any guaranty or indemnity provided in connection with the Note or (ii) to obtain any insurance proceeds or condemnation awards to which Lender would otherwise be entitled under this Loan Agreement; provided, however, that any judgment obtained against Borrower shall, except to the extent otherwise expressly provided in this Article 12, be enforceable against Borrower only to the extent of Borrower’s interest in the Property and other collateral securing payment of the Loan and performance of Borrower’s obligations under the Loan Documents.
Section 12.05 No Waiver of Certain Rights. Nothing contained in this Article 12 shall be deemed a waiver of any right which Lender may have under the Bankruptcy Code or applicable law to protect and pursue its rights under the Loan Documents including, without limitation, its rights under Sections 506(a) or any other provision of the Bankruptcy Code to file a claim for the full amount of the Loan or to require that the collateral continues to secure all of the indebtedness owing to Lender under Loan Documents.
ARTICLE 13
INDEMNIFICATION
Section 13.01 Indemnification Against Claims. Borrower shall indemnify, defend, release and hold harmless Lender and each of the other Indemnified Parties from and against any and all Losses directly or indirectly arising out of, or in any way relating to, or as a result of (a) accident, injury to or death of Persons, or loss of, or damage to, property occurring in, on or with respect to the Property or on the adjoining sidewalks, curbs, adjacent property or adjacent
69
parking areas, streets or ways or otherwise arising with respect to the use of the Property; (b) failure of the Property to be in compliance with any Requirements of Law; (c) any breach by Borrower of its obligations under, or any material misrepresentation by Borrower contained in, this Loan Agreement or the other Loan Documents; (d) the use or intended use of the proceeds of the Loan; (e) any and all claims and demands whatsoever which may be asserted against Lender by reason of any alleged obligations or undertakings on its part to perform or discharge the lessor’s agreements contained in any Lease; or (f) any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding commenced or threatened relating to any of the foregoing, whether or not Indemnified Party is a party thereto; provided, however, any such release and indemnity shall not apply to any Indemnified Party to the extent any such Losses arise from Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct (collectively, “Indemnified Claims”).
Section 13.02 Duty to Defend. If an Indemnified Party claims indemnification under this Loan Agreement, the Indemnified Party shall promptly notify Borrower of the Indemnified Claim. After notice by any Indemnified Party, Borrower shall defend such Indemnified Party against such Indemnified Claim (if requested by any Indemnified Party, in the name of the Indemnified Party) by attorneys and other professionals reasonably approved, in writing, by the Indemnified Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Indemnified Party may, in its sole discretion and at the expense of Borrower, engage its own attorneys and other professionals to defend or assist it if such Indemnified Party determines that the defense as conducted by Borrower is not proceeding or being conducted in a satisfactory manner or that a conflict of interest exists between any of the parties represented by Borrower’s counsel in such action or proceeding. Within five (5) business days of Indemnified Party’s demand, Borrower shall pay or, in the sole discretion of the Indemnified Party, reimburse, the Indemnified Party for the payment of Indemnified Party’s costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorney fees, engineer fees, environmental consultant fees, laboratory fees and other professionals in connection therewith) in connection with the Indemnified Claim. Payment not made timely shall bear interest at the Default Rate until paid in full and payment of such amounts shall be secured by the Security Instrument and other collateral given to secure the Loan.
ARTICLE 14
SUBROGATION; NO USURY VIOLATIONS
Section 14.01 Subrogation. If the Loan is used to pay, satisfy, discharge, extend or renew any indebtedness secured by a pre-existing mortgage, deed of trust or other Lien encumbering the Property, then to the extent of funds so used, Lender shall automatically, and without further action on its part, be subrogated to all rights, including lien priority, held by the holder of the indebtedness secured by such prior Lien, whether or not the prior Lien is released, and such former rights are not waived but rather are continued in full force and effect in favor of Lender and are merged with the Liens created in favor of Lender as security for payment of the Loan and performance of the Obligations.
Section 14.02 No Usury. At no time is Borrower required to pay interest on the Loan or on any other payment due hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents (or to make any other payment deemed by law or by a court of competent jurisdiction to be interest) at a rate which would subject Lender either to civil or criminal liability as a result of being in excess of the maximum interest rate which Borrower is permitted by applicable law to pay. If interest (or
70
such other amount deemed to be interest) paid or payable by Borrower is deemed to exceed such maximum rate, then the amount to be paid immediately shall be reduced to such maximum rate and thereafter computed at such maximum rate. All previous payments in excess of such maximum rate shall be deemed to have been payments of principal (in inverse order of maturity) and not on account of interest due hereunder. For purposes of determining whether any applicable usury law has been violated, all payments deemed by law or a court of competent jurisdiction to be interest shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be deemed to be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread over the full term of the Loan in such manner so that interest is computed at a rate throughout the full term of the Loan which does not exceed the maximum lawful rate of interest.
ARTICLE 15
SALE OR SECURITIZATION OF LOAN
Section 15.01 Splitting the Note. Lender has the right from time to time, at Lender’s cost and expense, to sever the Note into one or more separate promissory notes in such denominations as Lender determines in its sole discretion (including the creation of a mezzanine loan secured by a collateral assignment of the equity interest in Borrower and SPE Equity Owner) which promissory notes may be included in separate sales or securitizations undertaken by Lender. In conjunction with any such action, but subject to the following provisions of this Section 15.01, Lender may redefine the interest rate and amortization schedule; provided, however: (a) if Lender redefines the interest rate, the initial weighted average of the interest rates contained in the severed promissory notes taken in the aggregate shall equal the Applicable Interest Rate, and (b) if Lender redefines the amortization schedule, the amortization of the severed promissory notes taken in the aggregate shall require no more amortization to be paid under the Loan than as required under this Loan Agreement and the Note at the time such action was taken by Lender. Subject to the foregoing, each severed promissory note, and the Loan evidenced thereby, shall be upon all of the terms and provisions contained in this Loan Agreement and the Loan Documents which continue in full force and effect, except that Lender may allocate specific collateral given for the Loan as security for performance of specific promissory notes, in each case with or without cross default provisions. Borrower agrees to cooperate with all reasonable requests of Lender to accomplish the foregoing, including, without limitation, execution and prompt delivery to Lender of a severance agreement and such other documents as Lender shall reasonably require, provided, however, that no changes to the terms of the Loan shall increase Borrower’s obligations under the Loan Documents or have a significant adverse effect on the economics of the transaction to Borrower. Borrower hereby appoints Lender its attorney-in-fact with full power of substitution (and which shall be deemed to be coupled with an interest and irrevocable until the Loan is paid and the Security Instrument is discharged of record, with Borrower hereby ratifying all that its said attorney shall lawfully do by virtue thereof) to make and execute all documents necessary or desirable to effect the aforesaid severance; provided, however, Lender shall not make or execute any such documents under such power until five (5) days after written notice has been given to Borrower by Lender of Lender’s intent to exercise its rights under such power. Borrower’s failure to deliver any of the documents requested by Lender hereunder for a period of ten (10) business days after such notice by Lender shall, at Lender’s option, constitute an Event of Default hereunder.
71
Section 15.02 Lender’s Rights to Sell or Securitize. Borrower acknowledges that Lender, and each successor to Lender’s interest, may (without prior notice to Borrower or Borrower’s prior consent), sell or grant participations in the Loan (or any part thereof), sell or subcontract the servicing rights related to the Loan, Securitize the Loan or include the Loan as part of a Securitization and, in connection therewith, assign Lender’s rights hereunder to a securitization trustee. Borrower agrees to cooperate with all reasonable requests of Lender in connection with any of the foregoing including, without limitation, executing any financing statements or other documents deemed necessary by Lender or its transferee to create, perfect or preserve the rights and interest to be acquired by such transferee, provide any updated financial information with appropriate verification through auditors letters, revised organizational documents and counsel opinions satisfactory to the Rating Agencies, executed amendments to the Loan Documents, and review information contained in a preliminary or final private placement memorandum, prospectus, prospectus supplements or other disclosure document, providing a mortgagor estoppel certificate and such other information about Borrower, SPE Equity Owner, any Guarantor or the Property as Lender may reasonably require for Lender’s offering materials. Any costs and expenses incurred by Borrower in connection with this Section 15.02 shall be borne by Lender.
Section 15.03 Dissemination of Information. Borrower acknowledges that Lender may provide to third parties with an existing or prospective interest in the servicing, enforcement, evaluation, performance, ownership, purchase, participation or Securitization of the Loan, including, without limitation, any Rating Agency and any entity maintaining databases on the underwriting and performance of commercial mortgage loans, any and all information which Lender now has or may hereafter acquire relating to the Loan, the Property, Borrower, SPE Equity Owner or any Guarantor, as Lender determines necessary or desirable and that such information may be included in disclosure documents in connection with a Securitization or syndication of participation interests, including, without limitation, a prospectus, prospectus supplement, offering memorandum, private placement memorandum or similar document (each, a “Disclosure Document”) and also may be included in filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Act on the Securities Exchange Act. To the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, Borrower irrevocably waives all rights, if any, to prohibit such disclosure, including, without limitation, any right of privacy.
Section 15.04 Securitization Indemnification. Borrower agrees to provide in connection with each Disclosure Document provided to Borrower for review, an indemnification certificate: (a) certifying that such Disclosure Document has carefully been examined, including, without limitation, the sections entitled “Special Considerations,” and/or “Risk Factors,” and “Certain Legal Aspects of the Mortgage Loan,” or similar sections, and all sections relating to Borrower, SPE Equity Owner, Guarantors, Property Manager, their respective Affiliates, the Loan, the Loan Documents and the Property, and any risks or special considerations relating thereto, and that, to the best of Borrower’s knowledge, such sections (and any other sections reasonably requested) do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements made, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; (b) indemnifying Lender (and for purposes of this Section 15.04, Lender shall include its officers and directors) and the entity that (i) has filed the registration statement, if any, relating to the Securitization and/or (ii) which is acting as issuer, depositor, sponsor and/or a similar capacity with respect to the Securitization (any Person
72
described in (i) or (ii), an “Issuer Person”), and each director and officer of any Issuer Person, and each Person or entity who controls any Issuer Person within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Securities Exchange Act (collectively, “Issuer Group”), and each Person which is acting as an underwriter, manager, placement agent, initial purchaser or similar capacity with respect to the Securitization, each of its directors and officers and each Person who controls any such Person within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Securities Exchange Act which is acting as an underwriter, manager, placement agent, initial purchaser or similar capacity with respect to the Securitization, each of its directors and officers and each Person who controls any such Person within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Securities Exchange Act (collectively, “Underwriter Group”) for any Losses to which Lender, the Issuer Group or the Underwriter Group may become subject insofar as the Losses arise out of or are based upon any breach of the foregoing certification set forth in clause (a) (collectively, “Securities Liabilities”); and (c) agreeing to reimburse Lender, the Issuer Group and the Underwriter Group for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by Lender, the Issuer Group and the Underwriter Group in investigating or defending the Securities Liabilities; provided, however, that Borrower will be liable under clauses (b) or (c) above only to the extent that such Securities Liabilities arise out of, or are based upon, any such untrue statement or omission made therein in reliance upon, and in conformity with, information furnished to Lender or any member of the Issuer Group or Underwriter Group by or on behalf of Borrower or a Guarantor in connection with the preparation of the Disclosure Documents or in connection with the underwriting of the Loan, including, without limitation, financial statements of Borrower, SPE Equity Owner or any Guarantor, and operating statements, rent rolls, environmental site assessment reports and property condition reports with respect to the Property, known by Borrower to be untrue or to be a material omission at the time of its certification delivered pursuant to clause (a). This indemnity is in addition to any liability which Borrower may otherwise have and shall be effective whether or not an indemnification certificate described in (a) above is provided and shall be applicable based on information previously provided by or on behalf of Borrower or a Guarantor if the indemnification certificate is not provided.

ARTICLE 17
LENDER CONSENT
Section 17.01 No Joint Venture; No Third Party Beneficiaries. Borrower and Lender intend that the relationships created hereunder and under each of the other Loan Documents are solely those of borrower and lender. Nothing herein or in any of the other Loan Documents is intended to create, nor shall it be construed as creating anything but a debtor-creditor relationship between Borrower and Lender nor shall they be deemed to confer on anyone other than Lender, and its successors and assigns, any right to insist upon or to enforce the performance or observance of any of the obligations contained herein or therein.

By approving or granting consent, accepting performance from Borrower, or releasing funds from a Reserve Account, Lender shall not be deemed to have warranted or affirmed the sufficiency, completeness, legality or effectiveness of the subject matter or of Borrower’s compliance with Requirements of Laws. Notwithstanding any provision under the Loan Documents which provide Lender the opportunity to approve or disapprove any action or decision by Borrower, Lender is not undertaking the performance of any obligation of Borrower under any of the Loan Documents or any of the other documents and agreements in connection with this transaction (including, without limitation, the Leases).
