The Exhibits contain other terms, provisions and conditions applicable to the Loan. Capitalized terms used in this Agreement shall have the meanings assigned to them in Exhibit “B”. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents, which must be in form, detail and substance satisfactory to Lenders, evidence the agreements of Borrower and Lenders with respect to the Loan. Borrower shall comply with all of the Loan Documents,
1.2 Purpose. The proceeds of the Loan shall be used by Borrower to pay (i) the cost of acquiring a ground leasehold estate in the Land and the construction of the Improvements on the Land and (ii) other fees, costs and expenses relating to the Property if and to the extent that such costs are specifically provided for in the Budget.
CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT | (Alexan Southside) – Page 1 |
1.3 Commitment to Lend. Each Lender severally agrees to make advances of its Pro Rata Share of the Loan proceeds to Borrower in amounts at any one time outstanding not to exceed such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Loan and (except for Administrative Agent with respect to Administrative Agent Advances) on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement and Exhibit “C”, Exhibit “C-1” and Exhibit “F” attached to this Agreement. Each Lender’s commitment to lend shall expire and terminate automatically (a) if the Loan is prepaid in full, and (b) on the Maturity Date. The Loan is not revolving. Any amount repaid may not be reborrowed.
1.4 Budget. The Budget is attached to this Agreement as Exhibit “D”. The amounts listed in the Budget (a) in the column headed “Total” are the maximum costs anticipated by Borrower for each item specified, and (b) as the “Total Project Cost” is the maximum cost anticipated by Borrower for the Project. Proceeds of the Loan shall be advanced subject to the terms, covenants, conditions and provisions of this Agreement. Prior to the first advance of the Loan (the nominal “priming” advance made following the execution of this Agreement is not deemed to be the first advance), Borrower will cause all of Borrower’s Equity to pay costs of the Project. Borrower shall not amend the Budget, or otherwise reallocate Loan funds from one Budget line item to another, except (i) to reallocate Budget line item savings (as established by Borrower to the reasonable satisfaction of Administrative Agent) from “soft” cost items to other “soft” cost items, “soft” cost items to “hard” cost items, completed “hard” cost items to other “hard” cost items and, following the completion of punchlist items and the release of all retainage, from “hard” cost items to “soft” cost items, or (ii) with the prior written approval of Administrative Agent, which approval will not be withheld, delayed or conditioned unreasonably; provided, however, the Required Lenders must also consent to any amendment or reallocation under subsections (i) or (ii) above that would (1) reduce any hard cost line item below the Construction Inspector’s reasonable estimate of the cost for such line item, (2) be a reallocation of funds from the “Interest Reserve” line item of the Budget, or (3) be a reallocation of funds to the “Developer Overhead” line item of the Budget. The Budget has been prepared by Borrower, and Borrower represents to Administrative Agent and Lenders that the Budget includes all anticipated costs incident to the Loan and the Project through the Maturity Date of the Loan (collectively, the “Aggregate Cost”) after taking into account the requirements of this Agreement, including “hard” and “soft” costs, fees and expenses and offset for amounts reasonably expected to be collected from operation of the Property during such period. Unless approved by Administrative Agent in its sole discretion, no advance shall be made (a) for any cost not set forth in the Budget, (b) from any line item in the Budget that, when added to all prior advances from that line item, would exceed the lesser of (i) the actual cost incurred by Borrower for such line item, or (ii) after giving effect to reallocations permitted or approved hereunder, the sum shown in the Budget for such line item (after taking into account any adjustment permitted by this Agreement), (c) from any contingency line item, in a percentage amount in excess of, as applicable, (i) fifty percent (50%) until the Improvements are fifty percent (50%) complete, (ii) seventy-five percent (75%) until the Improvements are seventy-five percent (75%) complete, (iii) ninety percent (90%) until the Improvements are ninety percent (90%) complete, and (iv) subject to paragraph 2(a) of Exhibit “F” attached hereto, on a percentage completion basis until the Improvements are fully complete, or (d) to pay interest on the Loan after commencement of operations in the Improvements if and to the extent that, subject to the provisions of Exhibit “I”, there is sufficient net operating income from the Property to pay such interest. Subject to Borrower’s right to adjust the Budget, (including the use of contingency funds as expressly provided above) and Required Lender’s right to consent to amendments and reallocations (all as provided in this Section 1.4), advances from any line item in the Budget for purposes other than those for which amounts are initially allocated to such line item, or changes in the relative amounts allocated to particular line items in the Budget, may only be made by Borrower with approval of Administrative Agent as Administrative Agent in its sole discretion deems necessary or advisable.
CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT | (Alexan Southside) – Page 2 |
1.5 Borrower’s Deposit. If at any time following the completion of Borrower’s contribution of Borrower’s Equity to pay the initial costs of the Project, Administrative Agent reasonably determines that the sum of: (a) any unadvanced portion of the Loan, plus (b) the portions of the Aggregate Cost that are to be paid by Borrower from other funds that, to Administrative Agent’s reasonable satisfaction, are available, set aside and committed, plus (c) amounts reasonably expected to be realized from operation of the Property is or will be insufficient to pay the actual unpaid Aggregate Cost, Borrower shall, within seven (7) days after written notice from Administrative Agent, deposit with Administrative Agent the amount of the deficiency (“Borrower’s Deposit”) in an interest-bearing account of Administrative Agent’s selection with interest earned thereon to be part of Borrower’s Deposit. Such Borrower’s Deposit is hereby pledged to Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of Administrative Agent and Lenders as additional security for the Loan, and Borrower hereby grants and conveys to Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of Administrative Agent and Lenders a security interest in all such funds so deposited with Administrative Agent, as additional security for the Loan. Administrative Agent may advance all or a portion of the Borrower’s Deposit prior to the Loan proceeds. Administrative Agent may (but shall have no obligation to) apply all or any part of Borrower’s Deposit against the unpaid Indebtedness in such order as Administrative Agent determines at any time a Default exists. With the final advance for Improvements made pursuant to Paragraph 5 of Exhibit F of this Agreement, Administrative Agent will (i) release to Borrower any unexpended Borrower’s Deposit then held by Administrative Agent and (ii) if requested by Borrower, make an advance on the Loan equal to the lesser of the undisbursed amount of the Loan (excluding any amount of the interest reserve line item) or the aggregate amount disbursed from Borrower’s Deposit.
1.6 Evidence of Debt. Amounts of the Loan made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender and by Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the Loan made by the Lenders to Borrower and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of Borrower hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. Each Lender may attach schedules to its Note(s) and endorse thereon the date, amount and maturity of the applicable Note and payments with respect thereto.
1.7 Interest Rates.
(a) The Principal Debt from day to day outstanding which is not past due shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the lesser of (i) the maximum non-usurious rate of interest allowed by applicable law or (ii) the following (computed as provided in Section 1.7(d) hereof) as applicable.
CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT | (Alexan Southside) – Page 3 |
(i) On Base Rate Principal, on any day, the Base Rate; and
(ii) On LIBOR Rate Principal, for the applicable Interest Period, the applicable LIBOR Rate; and
(iii) Provided that, if Administrative Agent has agreed, in its sole discretion, that such rate shall be applicable for such day, on LIBOR Daily Floating Rate Principal, on any date, the LIBOR Daily Rate.
(b) Interest Rate Elections.
(i) Subject to the conditions and limitations in this Agreement, Borrower may by providing a Rollover/Conversion Notice to Administrative Agent:
(A) Elect, for a new advance of funds, that such Principal Debt will be Base Rate Principal, LIBOR Rate Principal, the LIBOR Daily Floating Rate Principal or a combination thereof;
(B) Elect to convert, on a LIBOR Business Day, all or part of Base Rate Principal into LIBOR Rate Principal or LIBOR Daily Floating Rate Principal;
(C) Elect to convert, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, all or part of any LIBOR Rate Principal into Base Rate Principal or LIBOR Daily Floating Rate Principal;
(D) Elect to convert, on any date, all or a part of any LIBOR Daily Floating Rate Principal into Base Rate Principal or LIBOR Rate Principal; or
(E) Elect to continue, commencing on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, any LIBOR Rate Principal.
If, for any reason, an effective election is not made in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof for any principal advance or for any LIBOR Rate Principal for which the corresponding Interest Period is expiring, or to convert Base Rate Principal to LIBOR Rate Principal or LIBOR Daily Floating Rate Principal, then the sums in question will be LIBOR Daily Floating Rate Principal until an effective LIBOR Rate Election is thereafter made for such sums. Any one of M. Xxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxx X. Xxxxxx, Xxxx X. Xxx, and Xxxxxx Xxxxx may execute a Rollover/Conversion Notice on behalf of Borrower. The authority of each of them to give Rollover/Conversion Notices shall continue until Administrative Agent receives written notice of the revocation or cancellation of such authority and has a reasonable opportunity to act thereon.
CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT | (Alexan Southside) – Page 4 |
(ii) Each Rollover/Conversion Notice must be received by Administrative Agent not later than 10:00 a.m., Administrative Agent’s Time on the applicable date as follows:
(A) With respect to an advance of or conversion to Base Rate Principal, one (1) Business Day prior to the proposed date of advance or conversion; and
(B) With respect to an advance of, conversion to or continuation of LIBOR Rate Principal, three (3) LIBOR Business Days prior to the proposed date of advance, conversion or continuation.
Unless otherwise specified herein, no conversion from LIBOR Rate Principal may be made other than at the end of the corresponding Interest Period. Each Rollover/Conversion Notice shall stipulate: (A) the amount of the advance or of the Principal Debt to be converted or continued; (B) the nature of the proposed advance, conversion or continuation, which shall be either Base Rate Principal, LIBOR Rate Principal, LIBOR Daily Rate Principal or a combination thereof, and in the case of a conversion or continuation, the nature of the Principal Debt to be converted or continued; and (C) in the case of LIBOR Rate Principal, the proposed commencement date and duration of the Interest Period. All such notices shall be irrevocable once given, and shall be deemed to have been given only when actually received by Administrative Agent in writing in the form of the Rollover/Conversion Notice specified by this Agreement.
(iii) Administrative Agent shall promptly notify Borrower and Lenders of the interest rate applicable to each portion of the Principal Debt other than a Base Rate Principal upon determination of same.
(c) General Conditions Precedent to LIBOR Rate Election. In addition to any other conditions herein, a LIBOR Rate Election shall not be permitted if:
(i) A Default has occurred and has not been waived by Administrative Agent or a Potential Default has occurred and is continuing; or
(ii) After giving effect to the requested LIBOR Rate Election, the sum of all LIBOR Rate Principal plus all LIBOR Daily Floating Rate Principal plus all Base Rate Principal would exceed the combined Aggregate Commitment; or
(iii) The requested LIBOR Rate Election would cause more than four (4) LIBOR Rate Elections by Borrower to be in effect at any one time; or
CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT | (Alexan Southside) – Page 5 |
(iv) The amount of LIBOR Rate Principal requested in the LIBOR Rate Election is less than $500,000.00; or
(v) The requested interest period does not conform to the definition of Interest Period herein; or
(vi) Any of the circumstances referred to in Section 1.7(e) hereof shall apply with respect to the requested LIBOR Rate Election or the Required Lenders determine there is not adequate and reasonable means for determining LIBOR, the requested LIBOR Daily Floating Rate Principal or the requested LIBOR Rate Principal.
(d) Computations and Determinations. All interest shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and paid for the actual number of days, elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). Administrative Agent shall determine each interest rate applicable to the Principal Debt in accordance with this Agreement and its determination thereof shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. The books and records of Administrative Agent shall be prima facie evidence of all sums owing to Lenders from time to time under this Loan, but the failure to record any such information shall not limit or affect the obligations of Borrower under the Loan Documents.
(e) Increased Cost and Reduced Return. If at any time after the date hereof, any Lender (which shall include, for purposes of this Section, any corporation controlling any Lender) determines that any Change in Law regarding Taxes (other than Taxes imposed on all or any portion of the overall net income or receipts of Lender), such Lender’s required levels of reserves, deposits, insurance or capital (including any allocation of capital requirements or conditions), or similar requirements, or any interpretation or administration thereof by any Tribunal or compliance by such Lender with any of such requirements, has or would have the effect of (a) increasing such Lender’s costs relating to the Indebtedness, or (b) reducing the yield or rate of return of such Lender on the Indebtedness to a level below that which such Lender could have achieved but for such Change in Law, Borrower shall, within fifteen (15) days of any request by such Lender, pay to Lender such additional amounts as (in such Lender’s sole judgment, after good faith and reasonable computation) will compensate such Lender for such increase in costs or reduction in yield or rate of return of such Lender. No failure by such Lender to immediately demand payment of any additional amounts payable hereunder shall constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand payment of such amounts at any subsequent time. Nothing herein contained shall be construed or so operate as to require Borrower to pay any interest, fees, costs or charges greater than is permitted by applicable Law. A Lender’s method of determining any amount payable under this subsection (e) shall be substantially similar to the method used by other federally regulated financial institutions similarly situated to Administrative Agent.
CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT | (Alexan Southside) – Page 6 |
(f) Past Due Rate. So long as any Default shall have occurred and not been waived by Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent, in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion and without notice or demand, may raise the rate of interest accruing on the outstanding principal balance of a Note by the lesser of (i) the maximum non-usurious rate of interest allowed by applicable law or (ii) three hundred (300) basis points above the rate of interest otherwise applicable (the “Past Due Rate”), independent of whether the Administrative Agent elects to accelerate the outstanding principal balance of such Note.
1.8 Prepayment. Borrower may prepay the principal balance of this Loan, in full at any time or in part from time to time, provided that: (i) Administrative Agent shall have actually received from Borrower prior written notice of Borrower’s intent to prepay, the amount of principal which will be prepaid (the “Prepaid Principal”), and the date on which the prepayment will be made; (ii) each prepayment shall be in the amount of $1,000.00 or more (unless the prepayment retires the outstanding balance of this Loan in full); (iii) each prepayment shall be in the amount of 100% of the Prepaid Principal, plus accrued unpaid interest thereon to the date of prepayment, plus any other sums which have become due to Administrative Agent and Lenders under the Loan Documents on or before the date of prepayment but have not been paid; and (iv) no portion of LIBOR Rate Principal may be prepaid except on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, unless Borrower pays any Consequential Loss as a result thereof. If this Loan is prepaid in full, any commitment of Lenders for further advances shall automatically terminate.
1.9 Compensation for Losses. Within fifteen (15) days of demand by any Lender (with a copy to Administrative Agent), Borrower shall compensate such Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense incurred by it as a result of:
(a) any continuation, conversion, payment or prepayment of any LIBOR Rate Principal on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period for such LIBOR Rate Principal (whether by voluntary act of Borrower or by reason of acceleration, including, but not limited to, acceleration upon any transfer or conveyance of any right, title or interest in the Property giving Administrative Agent on behalf of Lenders the right to accelerate the maturity of the Loan), other than as may arise out of any action of Lender unrelated to its exercise of its remedies against Borrower; or
(b) any failure by Borrower (for a reason other than the failure of such Lender to make a LIBOR Rate Advance) to borrow, continue or convert any LIBOR Rate Principal on the date or in the amount notified by Borrower in any LIBOR Rate Election or otherwise;
including any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such LIBOR Rate Advance or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained but excluding any loss attributable to the LIBOR Margin (collectively, “Consequential Loss”).
CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT | (Alexan Southside) – Page 7 |
For purposes of calculating the Consequential Loss payable by Borrower to Lenders under this Section, each Lender shall be deemed to have funded each LIBOR Rate Advance made by it at the London Interbank Offered Rate for such advance by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the London interbank eurodollar market for comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such LIBOR Rate Advance was in fact so funded. The foregoing notwithstanding, the amounts of the Consequential Loss shall never be less than zero or greater than is permitted by applicable Law. The obligations of Borrower under this Section shall survive any termination of the Loan Documents and payment of the Loan and shall not be waived by any delay by Administrative Agent or Lenders in seeking such compensation, provided that Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 1.9 for any Consequential Loss incurred more than six months prior to the date that such Lender notifies Borrower in writing of such Consequential Loss.
1.10 Late Charge. If Borrower shall fail to make any payment of principal or interest on the Loan (other than the principal balance due on the Maturity Date or upon acceleration) due hereunder or under the terms of any Note within fifteen (15) days after the date such payment is due, Borrower shall pay to the applicable Lender or Lenders on demand a late charge equal to two percent (2.00%) of such payment. Such fifteen (15) day period shall not be construed as in any way extending the due date of any payment. The “late charge” is imposed for the purpose of defraying the expenses of a Lender incident to handling such defaulting payment. This charge shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other remedy Lenders may have and is in addition to any fees and charges of any agents or attorneys which Administrative Agent or Lenders may employ upon the occurrence of a Default, whether authorized herein or by Law.
1.11 Taxes.
(a) Subject to Section 6.11, any and all payments by Borrower to or for the account of Administrative Agent or any Lender under any Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, duties, levies, imposts, deductions, assessments, fees, withholdings or similar charges, and all liabilities with respect thereto levied by any jurisdiction within the United States of America, excluding, in the case of Administrative Agent and any Lender, (i) taxes imposed on or measured by its net income, and franchise taxes imposed on it (in lieu of net income taxes), by the jurisdiction (or any political subdivision thereof) under the Laws of which Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, is organized or maintains a lending office, and (ii) any U.S. federal withholding Taxes. Subject to Section 6.11, if Borrower shall be required by any Laws to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under any Loan Document to Administrative Agent or any Lender, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section), Administrative Agent and such Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) Borrower shall make such deductions, (iii) Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable Laws, and (iv) within thirty (30) days after the date of such payment, Borrower shall furnish to Administrative Agent (which shall forward the same to such Lender) the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof.
CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT | (Alexan Southside) – Page 8 |
(b) In addition, Borrower agrees to pay any and all present or future stamp, court or documentary taxes and any other excise or property taxes or charges or similar levies which arise from any payment made under any Loan Document or from the execution, delivery, performance, enforcement or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, any Loan Document (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”).
(c) If Borrower shall be required by the Laws of any jurisdiction outside the United States to deduct any Taxes or Other Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under any Loan Document to Administrative Agent or any Lender, Borrower shall also pay to Administrative Agent (for the account of such Lender) or to such Lender, at the time interest is paid, such additional amount that such Lender specifies is necessary to preserve the after tax yield (after factoring in United States (federal and state) taxes imposed on or measured by net income) Lender would have received if such deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) had not been made.
(d) Subject to Section 6.11, Borrower agrees to indemnify Administrative Agent and each Lender for the full amount of Taxes and Other Taxes (including any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section) paid by Administrative Agent and such Lender and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, in each case whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Tribunal. Payment under this subsection (d) shall be made within thirty (30) days after the date the applicable Lender or Administrative Agent makes a demand therefor. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Borrower by a Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Borrower shall be entitled to any return in respect of Taxes or Other Taxes that are not correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Tribunal.
(e) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of Borrower hereunder, the agreements and obligations of Borrower contained in this Section shall survive the termination of the Commitments and the payment in full of all the other Obligations.
1.12 Payment Schedule, Maturity Date and Extension Option.
(a) Subject to the provisions of Section 1.12(c) below regarding Borrower’s option to extend the term of the Loan, the entire principal balance of the Loan then unpaid and all accrued interest then unpaid shall be due and payable in full on the Maturity Date. Accrued unpaid interest shall be due and payable on the 15th day of the second calendar month after the date of this Agreement and on the same day of each succeeding calendar month thereafter until all principal and accrued interest owing on this Loan shall have been fully paid and satisfied.
CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT | (Alexan Southside) – Page 9 |
(b) Beginning on the fifteenth (15th) day of the first full calendar month of the Extension Period, if the Initial Maturity Date of the Loan is extended pursuant to paragraph (c) below (herein, the “Principal Amortization Commencement Date”), and continuing on the 15th day of every calendar month thereafter until the Maturity Date, principal of the Loan shall be due and payable in equal monthly installments, each in an amount equal to the average of principal payments which would be required for an initial 12 months of an amortization period if the Deemed Principal Balance of the Loan (as of the Principal Amortization Commencement Date) were amortized over an assumed thirty (30) year period at an interest rate per annum equal to six percent (6.00%).
(c) Borrower shall have the option to extend the Initial Maturity Date for one (1) period of twelve (12) months (the “Extension Period”). The exercise of the extension option shall be effective only if all of the following conditions have been satisfied on the Initial Maturity Date:
(i) The construction, equipping and finishing of all of the Improvements shall have been completed, in accordance with the Loan Documents and subject to no lien or claim of lien except the Permitted Encumbrances, liens securing the Loan and any other lien which Borrower is contesting in compliance with the provisions of the Deed of Trust.
(ii) All conditions to the final Advance of the Loan for Improvements, as set forth in Paragraph 5 of Exhibit “F” of this Agreement, shall have been satisfied.
(iii) There shall exist no Default or Potential Default under the Loan Documents that has not been waived by Administrative Agent.
(iv) Evidence satisfactory to Administrative Agent that the Debt Service Coverage Ratio is equal to or greater than 1.20 to 1.00 as of the Initial Maturity Date. Borrower may prepay a portion of the principal of the Loan as necessary to satisfy the conditions for extension of the Loan without any fee or penalty.
(v) The Property shall have a Loan-to-Value Ratio of less than or equal to sixty-five percent (65%). “Loan-to-Value Ratio” means the Deemed Principal Balance divided by the appraised “As-Is” value of the Property. The appraised “As-Is” value of the Property shall be based upon an appraisal prepared by a third-party appraiser acceptable to, and engaged directly by, Administrative Agent. The appraisal shall be satisfactory to Administrative Agent in all respects, as reviewed, adjusted and approved by Administrative Agent. In the event this Loan-to-Value Ratio is not met, Borrower may satisfy this Loan-to-Value Ratio prior to the extension date (1) by making a voluntary paydown of the Loan, subject to the satisfaction of any conditions to prepayment, and/or (2) by providing a written waiver of its right to receive any unadvanced portion of the Committed Sum.

(vi) If required by Administrative Agent, Borrower and Guarantors shall execute documents in form and substance satisfactory to Administrative Agent to (1) evidence the extension, (2) to reaffirm the obligations of Borrower and Guarantors under the Loan Documents and the Guaranties, (3) waive and release any defenses, counterclaims or offsets that Borrower or Guarantors may have with respect to their obligations under the respective Loan Documents, and (4) identify the monthly payments of principal to be made by Borrower during the Extension Period in accordance with Section 1.12(b) above (the foregoing documents are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Modification Documents”).
(vii) Guarantors shall be in compliance with the financial and other covenants applicable to Guarantors in the Guaranties, including specifically, the provisions of Section 29 of each of the Guaranties.
(viii) Borrower shall have caused Title Insurer to issue an endorsement to the Title Insurance reflecting that the coverage afforded by the Title Insurance has not been reduced or terminated by virtue of the execution and delivery of the Modification Documents.
(ix) Borrower shall have paid to Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of Lenders an extension fee for the Extension Period equal to 0.25% of the Deemed Principal Balance (calculated as of the first day of the Extension Period).
(x) Borrower shall have delivered to Administrative Agent written notice of its exercise of the extension option at least forty-five (45), but no more than one hundred twenty (120), days prior to the Original Maturity Date or the First Extended Maturity Date, as applicable.
1.13 Advances and Payment.
(a) Following receipt of a Draw Request, Administrative Agent shall promptly provide each Lender with a copy of the Draw Request Form in the form of Exhibit “F-1”, the related AIA Document G-702 and G-703, the related written confirmation by Borrower’s Architect and the related written certification of the Construction Inspector. Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender telephonically (with confirmation by electronic mail) or by electronic mail (with confirmation by telephone) not later than 1:00 p.m. Administrative Agent’s Time two (2) Business Days prior to the advance Funding Date for LIBOR Rate Principal advances, and one (1) Business Day prior to the advance Funding Date for all other advances, of its Pro Rata Share of the amount Administrative Agent has determined shall be advanced in connection therewith (“Advance Amount”). In the case of an advance of the Loan, each Lender shall make the funds for its Pro Rata Share of the Advance Amount available to Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. Administrative Agent’s Time on the Funding Date thereof. After Administrative Agent’s receipt of the Advance Amount from Lenders, Administrative Agent shall make proceeds of the Loan in an amount equal to the Advance Amount (or, if less, such portion of the Advance Amount that shall have been paid to Administrative Agent by Lenders in accordance with the terms hereof) available to Borrower on the applicable Funding Date by advancing such funds to Borrower in accordance with the provisions of Exhibit “F”.
CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT | (Alexan Southside) – Page 11 |
(b) All payments by Borrower shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by Borrower hereunder shall be made to Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at Administrative Agent’s Office in U.S. Dollars and in immediately available funds not later than 2:00 p.m. (Administrative Agent’s Time) on the date specified herein. Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its Pro Rata Share (or other applicable share as provided herein) of such payment in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender’s Lending Office. All payments received by Administrative Agent after 2:00 p.m. (Administrative Agent’s Time) shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. If any payment to be made by Borrower shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be. For the avoidance of doubt, Administrative Agent will distribute payments to each Lender, (i) on the date of receipt, if Administrative Agent receives such funds on or before 2:00 p.m. (Administrative Agent’s Time), or (ii) on the Business Day following the date of receipt, if Administrative Agent receives such funds after 2:00 p.m. (Administrative Agent’s Time). If Administrative Agent fails to timely pay any amount to any Lender in accordance with this Subsection, Administrative Agent shall pay to such Lender interest on such amount at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, for each day from the day such amount was to be paid until it is paid to such Lender. Any payments made to Administrative Agent shall satisfy the Borrower’s obligation to Lenders with respect to such amount whether or not Administrative Agent pays such amounts to Lenders.
CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT | (Alexan Southside) – Page 12 |
(c) Unless Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed advance Funding Date for LIBOR Rate Principal advances (or, in the case of any other advances, advance (prior to 2:00 p.m. (Administrative Agent’s Time) on such advance Funding Date) that such Lender will not make available to Administrative Agent such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such Advance Amount, Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such Pro Rata Share available on such date in accordance with subsection (a) above (or, in the case of any advances other than LIBOR Rate Principal advances, that such Lender has made such Pro Rata Share available in accordance with, and at the time required by Subsection (a) above) and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its Pro Rata Share of the Advance Amount available to Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and Borrower severally agree to pay to Administrative Agent forthwith on demand (in the case of such Lender) or within 30 days of demand (in the case of Borrower) such corresponding amount in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to Administrative Agent, at (A) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by Administrative Agent in connection with the foregoing, and (B) in the case of a payment to be made by Borrower, the LIBOR Daily Rate. If Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to Borrower the amount of such interest paid by Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays its Pro Rata Share of the applicable Advance Amount to Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such Advance Amount. Any payment by Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to Administrative Agent.
(d) Unless Administrative Agent shall have received notice from Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to Administrative Agent for the account of Lenders hereunder that Borrower will not make such payment, Administrative Agent may assume that Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to Lenders, the amount due. In such event, if Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders, severally agrees to repay to Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender, in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.
A notice of Administrative Agent to any Lender or to Borrower with respect to any amount owing under this subsection shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.
(e) If any Lender makes available to Administrative Agent funds for any Loan advance to be made by such Lender as provided in the foregoing provisions of this Section, and such funds are not made available to Borrower by Administrative Agent because the conditions to the applicable Loan advance set forth in Exhibit “F” are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof or otherwise used to satisfy any obligations of such Lender hereunder, Administrative Agent shall return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender, without interest.
CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT | (Alexan Southside) – Page 13 |
(f) The obligations of Lenders hereunder to make Loan advances and to make payments pursuant to Section 5.7 are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan advance or to make any payment under Section 5.7 on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan advance or to make its payment under Section 5.7.
(g) Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for any Loan advance in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan advance in any particular place or manner.
1.14 Administrative Agent Advances.
(a) Administrative Agent is authorized, from time to time, in Administrative Agent’s sole discretion to make, authorize or determine advances of the Loan, or otherwise expend funds, on behalf of Lenders (“Administrative Agent Advances”), (i) to pay any costs, fees and expenses as described in Section 6.10 herein, (ii) when the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Exhibit “C”, Exhibit “C-1” and Exhibit “F” have been satisfied to the extent required by Administrative Agent, and (iii) when Administrative Agent deems necessary or desirable to preserve or protect the Loan collateral or any portion thereof (including those with respect to property taxes, insurance premiums, completion of construction, operation, management, improvements, maintenance, repair, sale and disposition) (A) subject to Section 5.5, after the occurrence of a Default, and (B) subject to Section 5.10, after acquisition of all or a portion of the Loan collateral by foreclosure or otherwise.
(b) Administrative Agent Advances shall constitute obligatory advances of Lenders under this Agreement, shall be repayable on demand and secured by the Loan collateral, and if unpaid by Lenders as set forth below shall bear interest at the rate applicable to such amount under the Loan. Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender in writing of each Administrative Agent Advance. Upon receipt of notice from Administrative Agent of its making of an Administrative Agent Advance, each Lender shall make the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the outstanding principal amount of the Administrative Agent Advance available to Administrative Agent, in same day funds, to such account of Administrative Agent as Administrative Agent may designate, (i) on or before 3:00 p.m. (Administrative Agent’s Time) on the day Administrative Agent provides Lenders with notice of the making of such Administrative Agent Advance if Administrative Agent provides such notice on or before 12:00 p.m. (Administrative Agent’s Time), or (ii) on or before 12:00 p.m. (Administrative Agent’s Time) on the Business Day immediately following the day Administrative Agent provides Lenders with notice of the making of such advance if Administrative Agent provides notice after 12:00 p.m. (Administrative Agent’s Time).
CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT | (Alexan Southside) – Page 14 |
1.15 Defaulting Lender.
1.15.1 Notice and Cure of Lender Default; Election Period; Electing Lenders. Administrative Agent shall notify (such notice being referred to as the “Default Notice”) Borrower (for Loan advances) and each non-Defaulting Lender if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender. Each non-Defaulting Lender shall have the right, but in no event or under any circumstance the obligation, to fund such Defaulting Lender Amount, provided that, within five (5) days after the date of the Default Notice (the “Election Period”), such non-Defaulting Lender or Lenders (each such Lender, an “Electing Lender”) irrevocably commit(s) by notice in writing (an “Election Notice”) to Administrative Agent, the other Lenders and Borrower to fund the Defaulting Lender Amount. If Administrative Agent receives more than one Election Notice within the Election Period, then the commitment to fund the Defaulting Lender Amount shall be apportioned pro rata among the Electing Lenders in the proportion that the amount of each such Electing Lender’s Commitment bears to the total Commitments of all Electing Lenders. If the Defaulting Lender fails to pay the Defaulting Lender Payment Amount within the Election Period, the Electing Lender or Lenders, as applicable, shall be automatically obligated to fund the Defaulting Lender Amount (and Defaulting Lender shall no longer be entitled to fund such Defaulting Lender Amount) within three (3) Business Days following the expiration of the Election Period to reimburse Administrative Agent or make payment to Borrower as applicable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if Administrative Agent has funded the Defaulting Lender Amount, Administrative Agent shall be entitled, to reimbursement for its portion of the Defaulting Lender Payment Amount pursuant to Section 5.11.
1.15.2 Removal of Rights; Indemnity. Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to transfer to a Defaulting Lender any payments made by or on behalf of Borrower to Administrative Agent for the Defaulting Lender’s benefit; nor shall a Defaulting Lender be entitled to the sharing of any payments hereunder or under any Note until all Defaulting Lender Payment Amounts are paid in full. Amounts payable to a Defaulting Lender shall be paid by Administrative Agent to reimburse Administrative Agent and any Electing Lender pro rata for all Defaulting Lender Payment Amounts. Solely for the purposes of voting or consenting to matters with respect to the Loan Documents, a Defaulting Lender shall be deemed not to be a “Lender” and such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment shall be deemed to be zero. A Defaulting Lender shall have no right to participate in any discussions among and/or decisions by Lenders hereunder and/or under the other Loan Documents. Further, any Defaulting Lender shall be bound by any amendment to, or waiver of, any provision of, or any action taken or omitted to be taken by Administrative Agent and/or the non-Defaulting Lenders under, any Loan Document which is made subsequent to the Defaulting Lender’s becoming a Defaulting Lender. This Section shall remain effective with respect to a Defaulting Lender until such time as the Defaulting Lender shall no longer be in default of any of its obligations under this Agreement by curing such default by payment of all Defaulting Lender Payment Amounts (i) within the Election Period, or (ii) after the Election Period with the consent of the non-Defaulting Lenders. Such Defaulting Lender nonetheless shall be bound by any amendment to or waiver of any provision of, or any action taken or omitted to be taken by Administrative Agent and/or the non-Defaulting Lenders under any Loan Document which is made subsequent to that Lender’s becoming a Defaulting Lender and prior to such cure or waiver. The operation of this subsection or the subsection above alone shall not be construed to increase or otherwise affect the Commitment of any non-Defaulting Lender, or relieve or excuse the performance by Borrower of its duties and obligations hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents. Furthermore, nothing contained in this Section shall release or in any way limit a Defaulting Lender’s obligations as a Lender hereunder and/or under any of the other Loan Documents. Further, a Defaulting Lender shall indemnify and hold harmless Administrative Agent and each of the non-Defaulting Lenders from any claim, loss, or costs incurred by Administrative Agent and/or the non-Defaulting Lenders as a result of a Defaulting Lender’s failure to comply with the requirements of this Agreement, INCLUDING SUCH FAILURE CONSTITUTING IN WHOLE OR PART ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT’S OR NONDEFAULTING LENDERS’ STRICT LIABILITY, OR COMPARATIVE, CONTRIBUTORY OR SOLE NEGLIGENCE except to the extent such failure constitutes willful misconduct or gross negligence on Administrative Agent’s or non-Defaulting Lenders’ part; including, without limitation, any and all additional losses, damages, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees) incurred by Administrative Agent and any non-Defaulting Lender as a result of and/or in connection with (i) a non-Defaulting Lender’s acting as an Electing Lender, (ii) any enforcement action brought by Administrative Agent against a Defaulting Lender, and (iii) any action brought against Administrative Agent and/or Lenders. The indemnification provided above shall survive any termination of this Agreement.
CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT | (Alexan Southside) – Page 15 |
1.15.3 Commitment Adjustments. In connection with the adjustment of the amounts of the Loan Commitments of the Defaulting Lender and Electing Lender(s) upon the expiration of the Election Period as aforesaid, Borrower, Administrative Agent and Lenders shall execute such modifications to the Loan Documents as shall, in the reasonable judgment of Administrative Agent, be necessary or desirable in connection with the adjustment of the amounts of Commitments in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Section. For the purpose of voting or consenting to matters with respect to the Loan Documents such modifications shall also reflect the removal of voting rights of the Defaulting Lender and increase in voting rights of Electing Lenders to the extent an Electing Lender has funded the Defaulting Lender Amount. In connection with such adjustments, Defaulting Lenders shall execute and deliver an Assignment and Assumption covering the ceded portion of the Defaulting Lender’s Commitment and otherwise comply with Section 6.5. If a Lender refuses to execute and deliver such Assignment and Assumption or otherwise comply with Section 6.5, such Lender hereby appoints Administrative Agent to do so on such Lender’s behalf. Administrative Agent shall distribute an amended Schedule of Lenders, which shall thereafter be incorporated into this Agreement, to reflect such adjustments. However, all such Defaulting Lender Amounts funded by Administrative Agent or Electing Lenders shall continue to be Defaulting Lender Amounts of the Defaulting Lender pursuant to its obligations under this Agreement.
CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT | (Alexan Southside) – Page 16 |
1.15.4 No Election. In the event that no Lender elects to commit to fund the Defaulting Lender Amount within the Election Period, Administrative Agent shall, upon the expiration of the Election Period, so notify Borrower and each Lender.
1.16 Several Obligations; No Liability, No Release. Notwithstanding that certain of the Loan Documents now or hereafter may have been or will be executed only by or in favor of Administrative Agent in its capacity as such, and not by or in favor of Lenders, any and all obligations on the part of Administrative Agent (if any) to make any advances of the Loan or reimbursements for other Payment Amounts shall constitute the several (and not joint) obligations of the respective Lenders on a ratable basis, according to their respective Pro Rata Shares. Except as may be specifically provided in this Agreement, no Lender shall have any liability for the acts of any other Lender. No Lender shall be responsible to Borrower or any other person for any failure by any other Lender to fulfill its obligations to make advances of the Loan or reimbursements for other Payment Amounts, nor to take any other action on its behalf hereunder or in connection with the financing contemplated herein. The failure of any Lender to pay to Administrative Agent its Pro Rata Share of a Payment Amount shall not relieve any other Lender of any obligation hereunder to pay to Administrative Agent its Pro Rata Share of such Payment Amounts as and when required herein, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so fund its Pro Rata Share of the Payment Amount. In furtherance of the foregoing, Lenders shall comply with their obligation to pay Administrative Agent their Pro Rata Share of such Payment Amounts regardless of (i) the occurrence of any Default hereunder or under any Loan Document; (ii) any failure of consideration, absence of consideration, misrepresentation, fraud, or any other event, failure, deficiency, breach or irregularity of any nature whatsoever in the Loan Documents; or (iii) any bankruptcy, insolvency or other like event with regard to Borrower or any Guarantor. The obligation of Lenders to pay such Payment Amounts is in all regards independent of any claims between Administrative Agent and any Lender.
1.17 Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, Borrower may, upon notice to such Lender and Administrative Agent, replace such Lender by causing such Lender to assign its Commitment with the payment of any assignment fee by the replaced Lender to one or more other Lenders or Eligible Assignees acceptable to Borrower and Administrative Agent. Borrower shall or shall cause the replacement Lender to (subject to the provisions of Section 1.14 through 1.15 providing for payment of all Defaulting Lender Payment Amounts to Administrative Agent and/or Electing Lenders, as applicable, prior to payment of amounts due to a Defaulting Lender), (y) pay in full all principal, interest, fees and other amounts owing to such Lender through the date of replacement and (z) provide a release of such Lender from its obligations under the Loan Documents. Any Lender being replaced shall execute and deliver an Assignment and Assumption covering that Lender’s Commitment, and otherwise comply with Section 6.5. If a Lender being replaced refuses to execute and deliver such Assignment and Assumption or otherwise comply with Section 6.5, such Lender hereby appoints Administrative Agent to do so on such Lender’s behalf. Administrative Agent shall distribute an amended Schedule of Lenders, which shall thereafter be incorporated into this Agreement, to reflect adjustments to Lenders and their Commitments.
CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT | (Alexan Southside) – Page 17 |
1.18 Borrower’s Rights. Nothing in Sections 1.15 through 1.17, nor any action taken pursuant to Sections 1.15 through 1.17 (including the replacement of the Defaulting Lender), shall relieve a Defaulting Lender from liability to Borrower for the Defaulting Lender’s failure to make Loan advances or to otherwise perform as required by this Agreement, or limit any rights or remedies of Borrower against the Defaulting Lender.
1.19 No Plan Assets. No portion of the Loan shall be funded with “plan assets” (within the meaning of the United States Department of Labor Regulations set forth in 29 C.F.R. §2510.3-101, as modified by Section 3(42) of ERISA) if it would cause the Borrower to incur any prohibited transfer excise tax penalties under Section 4975 of the Code.
ARTICLE 2 - ADDITIONAL COVENANTS AND AGREEMENTS
2.1 Construction of the Improvements. Borrower shall commence construction of the Improvements on or before the Construction Commencement Date, and shall prosecute the construction of the Improvements with diligence and continuity, in a good and workmanlike manner, and in substantial accordance with the Plans and in accordance with sound building and engineering practices, all applicable Laws and governmental requirements, and the Loan Documents. Borrower shall not permit cessation of work for a period in excess of thirty (30) consecutive days except for Excusable Delays. Borrower shall complete construction of the Improvements free and clear of all liens (except liens created by the Loan Documents and liens being contested in accordance with the Deed of Trust), and shall obtain a certificate of occupancy (or its equivalent) and all other permits, licenses and approvals from all applicable governmental authorities required for the occupancy, use and operation of the Improvements on or before the Completion Date. Borrower shall promptly begin and thereafter diligently pursue correction of (a) any material defect in the Improvements, (b) any material departure from the Plans, Law or governmental requirements, or (c) any unpermitted encroachment by any Improvements or structure on any building setback line, easement, property line or restricted area. Borrower shall maintain all permits and governmental approvals necessary for construction of the Improvements.
2.2 Plans and Changes. No construction shall be undertaken on the Land except substantially as shown in the Plans. Borrower assumes full responsibility for the compliance of the Plans and the Property with all Laws, governmental requirements and sound building and engineering practices. All Plans must be approved by all applicable governmental authorities, the Construction Inspector and all other parties required under the Loan Documents. Without Administrative Agent’s prior consent, no plans or specifications shall be included as part of the Plans nor shall Borrower change or modify the Plans, except that Borrower may make Permitted Changes if: (a) Borrower notifies Administrative Agent in writing of the change or extra with appropriate supporting documentation and information, including any change to the applicable Schedule of Values; (b) Borrower obtains the approval of the applicable contractor, Borrower’s architect and all sureties; (c) the structural integrity, value and standard of workmanship of the Improvements is not impaired by such change or extra; (d) no substantial change in architectural appearance is effected by such change or extra; (e) no default in any obligation to any person or violation of any Law or governmental requirement would result from such change or extra; (f) Borrower complies with (1) Section 1.4 of this Agreement regarding any change requiring a reallocation of Budget line items, and (2) Section 1.5 of this Agreement to cover any excess cost resulting from the change or extra; and (g) completion of the Improvements by the Completion Date will not be adversely affected.

CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT | (Alexan Southside) – Page 18 |
2.3 Contracts. Without Administrative Agent’s prior written approval as to parties, terms, and all other matters, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, Borrower shall not (a) enter into any architectural or engineering contract, or any Material Contract in excess of one percent (1%) of the Budget line item for “hard costs”, for the performance of any work or the supplying of any labor, materials or services for the construction (or additionally during the continuance of a Default which has not been waived in writing by Administrative Agent, design) of the Improvements, (b) enter into any management, leasing, maintenance or other contract pertaining to the Property not described in clause (a) that is not unconditionally terminable by Borrower or any successor owner without penalty or payment on not more than thirty (30) days’ notice to the other party thereunder, or (c) modify or amend, in any material respect, or terminate any such contracts except in connection with Permitted Changes or other changes to the Plans approved by Administrative Agent. Borrower shall not default under any contract, Borrower shall not permit any contract to terminate by reason of any failure of Borrower to perform thereunder, and Borrower shall promptly notify Administrative Agent of any default thereunder. Borrower will deliver to Administrative Agent, within ten (10) days after its request, the names and addresses of all persons or entities with whom it has contracted, and during the continuance of a Default which has not been waived in writing by Administrative Agent, with whom each such contractor has contracted for the construction of the Improvements or for the furnishing of labor or materials therefor.
2.4 Assignment of Contracts and Plans. As additional security for the Obligations, Borrower hereby transfers and assigns to Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of Administrative Agent and Lenders all of Borrower’s rights, titles and interests, but not its liability, in, under, and to all construction, architectural and design contracts, and the Plans, and agrees that all of the same are covered by the security agreement provisions of the Deed of Trust. At any time a Default exists, Borrower agrees to deliver to Administrative Agent from time to time upon Administrative Agent’s request such consents to the foregoing assignment from parties contracting with Borrower as Administrative Agent may require. Neither this assignment nor any action by Administrative Agent or Lenders shall constitute an assumption by Administrative Agent or Lenders of any obligation under any contract or with respect to the Plans, Borrower hereby agrees to perform all of its obligations under any contract, and Borrower shall continue to be liable for all obligations of Borrower with respect thereto. Administrative Agent shall have the right at any time (but shall have no obligation) to take in its name or in the name of Borrower such action as Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cure any default under any contract or with respect to the Plans or, if a Default then exists, to protect the rights of Borrower, Administrative Agent or Lenders with respect thereto. Borrower irrevocably constitutes and appoints Administrative Agent as Borrower’s attorney-in-fact, which power of attorney is coupled with an interest and irrevocable, to enforce in Borrower’s name or in Administrative Agent’s and Lender’s name all rights of Borrower under any contract or with respect to the Plans at any time a Default exists. Administrative Agent shall incur no liability if any action so taken by it or on its behalf shall prove to be inadequate or invalid. Borrower indemnifies and holds Administrative Agent and Lenders harmless against and from any loss, cost, liability or expense (including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred in connection with Borrower’s failure to perform such contracts or any action taken by Administrative Agent as authorized by this Section 2.4, INCLUDING ACTION CONSTITUTING IN WHOLE OR PART ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT’S OR NONDEFAULTING LENDERS’ STRICT LIABILITY, OR COMPARATIVE, CONTRIBUTORY OR SOLE NEGLIGENCE except to the extent such constitutes willful misconduct or gross negligence on Administrative Agent’s or any Lender’s part. Administrative Agent may use the Plans for any purpose relating to the Improvements. Borrower represents and warrants to Administrative Agent and Lenders that the copy of any contract furnished or to be furnished to Administrative Agent is and shall be a true and complete copy thereof, that the copies of the Plans delivered to Administrative Agent are and shall be true and complete copies of the Plans, that there have been no modifications thereof which are not fully set forth in the copies delivered, and that Borrower’s interest therein is not subject to any claim, setoff, or encumbrance.
CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT | (Alexan Southside) – Page 19 |
2.5 Storage of Materials. Borrower shall cause all materials supplied for or intended to be utilized in the construction of the Improvements, but not yet affixed to or incorporated into the Improvements or the Land, to be stored on the Land or at such other site as Administrative Agent may approve, in each case with adequate safeguards to prevent loss, theft, damage or commingling with materials for other projects. Except for bulk purchases of materials made in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement, Borrower shall not request Loan advances to purchase or order materials for delivery more than ninety (90) days prior to the scheduled incorporation of such materials into the Improvements (other than lumber, for which a two hundred ten (210) day time period prior to scheduled incorporation will be allowed) unless otherwise approved by Administrative Agent.
2.6 Construction Inspector. Administrative Agent will retain the services of a Construction Inspector, whose duties may include, among others, reviewing the Plans and any proposed changes to the Plans, performing construction cost analyses, observing work in place and reviewing Draw Requests. The duties of Construction Inspector run solely to Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of Lenders, and Construction Inspector shall have no obligations or responsibilities whatsoever to Borrower, Borrower’s architect, engineer, General Contractor or any of their agents or employees. Unless prohibited by applicable Law, all fees, costs, and expenses of Construction Inspector shall be paid by Borrower. Borrower shall cooperate with Construction Inspector and will furnish to Construction Inspector such information and other material as Construction Inspector reasonably requests in performing its duties. Administrative Agent shall provide Borrower with a copy of each report issued by the Construction Inspector upon request of Borrower.
2.7 Inspection. Administrative Agent and its agents, including Construction Inspector, may enter upon the Property to inspect the Property, the Project and any materials at any reasonable time, unless Administrative Agent deems such inspection is of an emergency nature, in which event Borrower shall provide Administrative Agent with immediate access to the Property. Borrower will also permit Administrative Agent and its agents, including Construction Inspector, to photograph the Property during normal business hours and at any other reasonable time. Borrower will furnish to Administrative Agent and its agents, including Construction Inspector, for inspection and copying, all Plans, shop drawings, specifications, books and records, and other documents and information that Administrative Agent may reasonably request from time to time.

2.8 Notice to Lenders.

2.16 Environmental Matters.
(a) Violations. Borrower will not cause, commit, permit or allow to continue (i) any violation of any Environmental Requirement by Borrower or by any Person with respect to the Property or any use of or condition or activity on the Property, or (ii) the attachment of any environmental lien to the Property.

CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT | (Alexan Southside) – Page 23 |
(c) Site Assessments and Information. If Administrative Agent shall ever have reason to believe that any Hazardous Material affects the Property in violation of Environmental Law that is not contained in the Environmental Report, or if any Environmental Claim is made or threatened, or if a Default shall have occurred under the Loan Documents which Default has not been waived in writing by Administrative Agent, or upon the occurrence of the Release Date (hereinafter defined) if requested by Administrative Agent, Borrower shall, at Borrower’s expense, provide to Administrative Agent from time to time, in each case within thirty (30) days after Administrative Agent’s request, an Environmental Assessment (hereinafter defined) made after the date of Administrative Agent’s request. As used in this Agreement, the term “Environmental Assessment” means a report (including all drafts thereof) of an environmental assessment of the Property of such scope (including but not limited to the taking of soil borings and air and groundwater samples and other above and below ground testing) as Administrative Agent may request, by a consulting firm acceptable to Administrative Agent and made in accordance with Administrative Agent’s established guidelines. Borrower will cooperate with each consulting firm making any such Environmental Assessment and will supply to the consulting firm, from time to time and promptly on request, all information available to Borrower to facilitate the completion of the Environmental Assessment. If Borrower fails to furnish Administrative Agent within ten (10) days after Administrative Agent’s request with a copy of an agreement with an acceptable environmental consulting firm to provide such Environmental Assessment, or if Borrower fails to furnish to Administrative Agent such Environmental Assessment within thirty (30) days after Administrative Agent’s request, Administrative Agent may cause any such Environmental Assessment to be made at Borrower’s expense and risk. Administrative Agent and its designees are hereby granted access to the Property at any time or times, upon reasonable notice (which may be written or oral), and a license which is coupled with an interest and irrevocable, to make or cause to be made such Environmental Assessments. Administrative Agent may disclose to interested parties any information Administrative Agent ever has about the environmental condition or compliance of the Property, but shall be under no duty to disclose any such information except as may be required by law. Administrative Agent shall be under no duty to make any Environmental Assessment of the Property, and in no event shall any such Environmental Assessment by Administrative Agent be or give rise to a representation that any Hazardous Material is or is not present on the Property, or that there has been or shall be compliance with any Environmental Requirement, nor shall Borrower or any other Person be entitled to rely on any Environmental Assessment made by Administrative Agent or at Administrative Agent’s request. Neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender owes any duty of care to protect Borrower or any other Person against, or to inform them of, any Hazardous Material or other adverse condition affecting the Property.
(d) Remedial Actions. If, prior to the Release Date, any Hazardous Material is discovered on the Property in violation of any Environmental Law, at any time and regardless of the cause, (i) Borrower shall promptly at Borrower’s sole risk and expense remove, treat, and dispose of the Hazardous Material as required under all applicable Environmental Requirements and solely under Borrower’s name (or if removal is prohibited by any Environmental Requirement, take whatever action is required by any Environmental Requirement), and take such other action as is necessary to have the full use and benefit of the Property as contemplated by the Loan Documents. Borrower shall provide Administrative Agent with satisfactory evidence of the actions taken as required by this clause (d). Borrower shall, if requested by Administrative Agent, provide to Administrative Agent within thirty (30) days of Administrative Agent’s request a bond, letter of credit or other financial assurance evidencing to Administrative Agent’s satisfaction that all necessary funds are readily available to pay the costs and expenses of the actions required by this clause (d) and to discharge any assessments or liens established against the Property as a result of the presence of the Hazardous Material on the Property in violation of any Environmental Law. Within thirty (30) days after completion of such remedial actions, Borrower shall obtain and deliver to Administrative Agent an Environmental Assessment of the Property made after such completion and confirming to Administrative Agent’s satisfaction that all required remedial action as stated above has been taken and successfully completed and that there is no evidence or suspicion of any contamination or risk of contamination on the Property or any adjacent property in violation of Environmental Law, or of violation of any Environmental Requirement, with respect to any such Hazardous Material. Administrative Agent on behalf of Lenders may, but shall never be obligated to, remove or cause the removal of any Hazardous Material in violation of Environmental Law from the Property (or if removal is prohibited by any Environmental Requirement, take or cause the taking of such other action as is required by any Environmental Requirement) if Borrower fails to promptly commence such remedial actions following discovery and thereafter diligently prosecute the same to the satisfaction of Administrative Agent (without limitation of the rights of Administrative Agent on behalf of Lenders to declare a default under any of the Loan Documents and to exercise all rights and remedies available by reason thereof); and Administrative Agent and its designees are hereby granted access to the Property at any time or times, upon reasonable notice (which may be written or oral), and a license which is coupled with an interest and irrevocable, to remove or cause such removal or to take or cause the taking of any such other action.
CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT | (Alexan Southside) – Page 24 |
(e) Limitation. Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement, Borrower will have no obligation or liability under this Section 2.16 for any Hazardous Material (i) which was not present on the Property as of the Release Date unless such Hazardous Material was otherwise released on the Property by Borrower, any Guarantor or any of their Affiliates or (ii) brought on to the Property by, or the release of which is caused by, Administrative Agent, the Lenders or their agents.
2.17 Electronic Delivery. Borrower hereby acknowledges that (a) Administrative Agent and/or Arranger may, but shall not be obligated to, make available to the Lenders materials and/or information provided by or on behalf of Borrower hereunder (collectively, “Borrower Materials”) by posting the Borrower Materials on Debt Domain, IntraLinks, Syndtrak or another similar electronic system (the “Platform”) and (b) certain of the Lenders (each, a “Public Lender”) may have personnel who do not wish to receive material non-public information with respect to Borrower or its Affiliates, or the respective securities of any of the foregoing, and who may be engaged in investment and other market-related activities with respect to such Person’s securities. Borrower hereby agrees that (i) all Borrower Materials that are to be made available to Public Lenders shall be clearly and conspicuously marked “PUBLIC” which, at a minimum, shall mean that the word “PUBLIC” shall appear prominently on the first page thereof; (ii) by marking Borrower Materials “PUBLIC,” Borrower shall be deemed to have authorized Administrative Agent, Arranger and the Lenders to treat such as not containing any material non-public information with respect to Borrower or its securities for purposes of United States Federal and state securities Laws (provided, however, that to the extent such Borrower Materials constitute Information, they shall be treated as set forth in Section 6.6); (iii) all Borrower Materials marked “PUBLIC” are permitted to be made available through a portion of the Platform designated “Public Side Information,” and (iv) Administrative Agent and Arranger shall be entitled to treat any Borrower Materials that are not marked “PUBLIC” as being suitable only for posting on a portion of the Platform not designated “Public Side Information.” Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower shall be under no obligation to xxxx any Borrower Materials “PUBLIC.”

2.18 Management Agreement. Borrower will not enter into any management or leasing agreement with respect to the Project without the prior consent of Administrative Agent. Prior to the completion of construction of the first apartment building within the Improvements, and the issuance of the first certificate of occupancy therefor, Borrower hereby agrees that Borrower and Borrower’s choice of any one of Pegasus, Greystar, Lincoln and ZRS or another manager reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent (“Approved Manager”) shall execute and deliver to Administrative Agent a management and leasing agreement for the Project in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent (“Approved Management Agreement”). Concurrently with the execution of the Approved Management Agreement, Borrower hereby agrees to execute and deliver to Administrative Agent an original consent and agreement executed by Approved Manager, in form and content reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent.
2.19 Debt Service Coverage Ratio. Within thirty (30) days after the end of each calendar quarter, commencing with the first calendar quarter ending during the Extension Period, if the Maturity Date is extended in accordance with Section 1.12(c) of this Agreement, and continuing with each calendar quarter thereafter, Borrower shall deliver a Compliance Certificate to Administrative Agent, verifying Borrower’s Debt Service Coverage Ratio. If the Debt Service Coverage Ratio is less than 1.20 to 1.00, Borrower shall be required on the fifth (5th) day of each month to deposit the Excess Cash Flow into the Cash Collateral Account until such time that Borrower provides evidence acceptable to Lender that the Debt Service Coverage Ratio is equal to or greater than 1.20 to 1.00 for two consecutive quarters, at which time so long as no Default exists, (i) all funds held in the Cash Collateral Account shall be returned to Borrower, and (ii) Borrower shall no longer be required to deposit Excess Cash Flow as above required, unless and until Borrower thereafter fails to maintain the Debt Service Coverage Ratio as herein provided. If the applicable Debt Service Coverage Ratio required by this Section 2.19 is not achieved for two (2) consecutive quarters, Administrative Agent shall apply the funds in the Cash Collateral Account to the outstanding balance of the Loan. Should a Cash Collateral Account be required pursuant to the terms of this Section 2.19, Borrower agrees to execute all documentation required by Lender to establish the account and provide Lender’s security interest in such account. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the Debt Service Coverage Ratio is less than 1.05 to 1.00 as of any quarterly test date, Borrower, within ten (10) days following request of Administrative Agent, shall make a principal payment on the Loan and/or waive the right to receive any unadvanced portion of the Committed Sum in such amounts as will cause the NOI to be sufficient to satisfy a Debt Service Coverage Ratio of 1.20 to 1.00 (such payment and/or waiver being referred to herein as a “Required Remargining”). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Borrower shall be permitted to use any and all funds in the Cash Collateral Account for the purpose of making a principal payment on the Loan in connection with a Required Remargining. If Borrower performs a Required Remargining, then any and all funds in the Cash Collateral Account that are not used to make a principal payment on the loan in connection therewith shall be released to Borrower, and Borrower shall no longer be required to deposit Excess Cash Flow into the Cash Collateral Account, unless and until Borrower thereafter fails to maintain the Debt Service Coverage Ratio of 1.20 to 1.00.

(a) Upon a Default, Administrative Agent may with the consent of, and shall at the direction of the Required Lenders, without notice, exercise any and all rights and remedies afforded by this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, Law, equity or otherwise, including (i) declaring any and all Indebtedness immediately due and payable; (ii) reducing any claim to judgment; or (iii) obtaining appointment of a receiver and/or judicial or nonjudicial foreclosure under the Deed of Trust. Upon a Default, Administrative Agent at its election may (but shall not be obligated to) without the consent of and shall at the direction of the Required Lenders, without notice, do any one or more of the following: (1) terminate Lenders’ Commitment to lend and any obligation to disburse any Borrower’s Deposit hereunder; (2) in its own name on behalf of the Lenders or in the name of Borrower, enter into possession of the Property, perform all work necessary to complete construction of the Improvements substantially in accordance with the Plans (as modified as deemed necessary by Administrative Agent), the Loan Documents, and all applicable Laws, governmental requirements and restrictive covenants, and continue to employ Borrower’s architect, engineer and any contractor pursuant to the applicable contracts or otherwise; or (3) set-off and apply, to the extent thereof and to the maximum extent permitted by Law, any and all deposits, funds, or assets at any time held and any and all other indebtedness at any time owing by Administrative Agent or any Lender to or for the credit or account of Borrower against any Indebtedness.
(b) Borrower hereby appoints Administrative Agent as Borrower’s attorney-in-fact, which power of attorney is irrevocable and coupled with an interest, with full power of substitution if Administrative Agent so elects, to do any of the following in Borrower’s name upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default which has not been waived in writing by Administrative Agent: (i) use such sums as are necessary, including any proceeds of the Loan and any Borrower’s Deposit, make such changes or corrections in the Plans, and employ such architects, engineers, and contractors as may be required, or as Lenders may otherwise consider desirable, for the purpose of completing construction of the Improvements substantially in accordance with the Plans (as modified as deemed necessary by Administrative Agent), the Loan Documents, and all applicable Laws, governmental requirements and restrictive covenants; (ii) execute all applications and certificates in the name of Borrower which may be required for completion of construction of the Improvements; (iii) endorse the name of Borrower on any checks or drafts representing proceeds of any insurance policies, or other checks or instruments payable to Borrower with respect to the Property; (iv) do every act with respect to the construction of the Improvements that Borrower may do; (v) prosecute or defend any action or proceeding incident to the Property, (vi) pay, settle, or compromise all bills and claims so as to clear title to the Property; and (vii) take over and use all or any part of the labor, materials, supplies and equipment contracted for, owned by, or under the control of Borrower, whether or not previously incorporated into the Improvements. Any amounts expended by Administrative Agent itself or on behalf of Lenders to construct or complete the Improvements or in connection with the exercise of its remedies herein shall be deemed to have been advanced to Borrower hereunder as a demand obligation owing by Borrower to Administrative Agent or Lenders as applicable and shall constitute a portion of the Indebtedness, regardless of whether such amounts exceed any limits for Indebtedness otherwise set forth herein. Neither Administrative Agent nor Lenders shall have any liability to Borrower for the sufficiency or adequacy of any such actions taken by Administrative Agent except to the extent of such party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.
CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT | (Alexan Southside) – Page 32 |
(c) No delay or omission of Administrative Agent or Lenders to exercise any right, power or remedy accruing upon the happening of a Default shall impair any such right, power or remedy or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such Default or any acquiescence therein. No delay or omission on the part of Administrative Agent or Lenders to exercise any option for acceleration of the maturity of the Indebtedness, or for foreclosure of the Deed of Trust following any Default as aforesaid, or any other option granted to Administrative Agent and Lenders hereunder in any one or more instances, or the acceptances by Administrative Agent or Lenders of any partial payment on account of the Indebtedness, shall constitute a waiver of any such Default, and each such option shall remain continuously in full force and effect. No remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to Administrative Agent and/or Lenders is intended to be exclusive of any other remedies provided for in any Note or any of the other Loan Documents, and each and every such remedy shall be cumulative, and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder, or under any Note or any of the other Loan Documents, or now or hereafter existing at Law or in equity or by statute. Every right, power and remedy given to Administrative Agent and Lenders by this Agreement, any Note or any of the other Loan Documents shall be concurrent, and may be pursued separately, successively or together against Borrower, or the Property or any part thereof, or any personal property granted as security under the Loan Documents, and every right, power and remedy given by this Agreement, any Note or any of the other Loan Documents may be exercised from time to time as often as may be deemed expedient by the Required Lenders.
(d) Regardless of how a Lender may treat payments received from the exercise of remedies under the Loan Documents for the purpose of its own accounting, for the purpose of computing the Indebtedness, payments shall be applied as elected by Lenders. No application of payments (other than for Default in the payment of money for which full payment is made) will cure any Default, or prevent acceleration, or continued acceleration, of amounts payable under the Loan Documents, or prevent the exercise, or continued exercise, of rights or remedies of Administrative Agent and Lenders hereunder or thereunder or at Law or in equity.

ARTICLE 5 - ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT
5.1 Appointment and Authorization of Administrative Agent.
(a) Each Lender hereby irrevocably (subject to Section 5.9) appoints, designates and authorizes Administrative Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other Loan Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to it by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere herein or in any other Loan Document, Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, nor shall Administrative Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against Administrative Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” herein and in the other Loan Documents with reference to Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.
(b) Intentionally Omitted.
(c) No individual Lender or group of Lenders shall have any right to amend or waive, or consent to the departure of any party from any provision of any Loan Document, or secure or enforce the obligations of Borrower or any other party pursuant to the Loan Documents, or otherwise. All such rights, on behalf of Administrative Agent or any Lender or Lenders, shall be held and exercised solely by and at the option of Administrative Agent for the pro rata benefit of the Lenders. Such rights, however, are subject to the rights of a Lender or Lenders, as expressly set forth in this Agreement, to approve matters or direct Administrative Agent to take or refrain from taking action as set forth in this Agreement. Except as expressly otherwise provided in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, Administrative Agent shall have and may use its sole discretion with respect to exercising or refraining from exercising any discretionary rights, or taking or refraining from taking any actions which Administrative Agent is expressly entitled to exercise or take under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, (i) the determination if and to what extent matters or items subject to Administrative Agent’s satisfaction are acceptable or otherwise within its discretion, (ii) the making of Administrative Agent Advances, and (iii) the exercise of remedies pursuant to, but subject to, Article 4 or pursuant to any other Loan Document, and any action so taken or not taken shall be deemed consented to by Lenders.
CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT | (Alexan Southside) – Page 34 |
(d) In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to Borrower or any Guarantor, no individual Lender or group of Lenders shall have the right, and Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of the Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on Borrower) shall be exclusively entitled and empowered on behalf of itself, and the Lenders, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:
(i) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loan, and all other Indebtedness that is owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and Administrative Agent under Section 6.10) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and
(ii) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;
and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to Administrative Agent and, in the event that Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due Administrative Agent under Section 6.10. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of the Lenders except as approved by the Required Lenders or to authorize Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claims of the Lenders except as approved by the Required Lenders in any such proceeding.
5.2 Delegation of Duties. Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel and other consultant experts concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects with reasonable care.
CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT | (Alexan Southside) – Page 35 |
5.3 Liability of Administrative Agent. No Agent-Related Persons shall (i) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct), or (ii) be responsible in any manner to any Lender for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by Borrower or any subsidiary or Affiliate of Borrower, or any officer thereof, contained herein or in any other Loan Document, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for any failure of Borrower or any other party to any Loan Document to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. No Agent-Related Person shall be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of Borrower, any Guarantor, or any of their Affiliates.
5.4 Reliance by Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex or telephone message, statement or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper person or persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to any party to the Loan Documents), independent accountants and other experts selected by Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders or all Lenders if required hereunder as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance with a request or consent of the Required Lenders or such greater number of Lenders as may be expressly required hereby in any instance, and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders. In the absence of written instructions from the Required Lenders or such greater number of Lenders, as expressly required hereunder, Administrative Agent may take, or not take any action, at its discretion, unless this Agreement specifically requires the consent of the Required Lenders or such greater number of Lenders.
5.5 Notice of Default. Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default, unless Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default that Administrative Agent determines will have a material adverse effect on Borrower or the Property. Administrative Agent will notify Lenders of its receipt of any such notice. Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default as may be requested by the Required Lenders in accordance with Article 4; provided, however, that unless and until Administrative Agent has received any such request, Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default as it shall deem advisable or in the best interest of Lenders.
CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT | (Alexan Southside) – Page 36 |
5.6 Credit Decision; Disclosure of Information by Administrative Agent.
(a) Each Lender acknowledges that none of the Agent-Related Persons has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by Administrative Agent hereafter taken, including any consent to and acceptance of any assignment or review of the affairs of Borrower and any Guarantor, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent-Related Person to any Lenders as to any matter, including whether Agent-Related Persons have disclosed material information in their possession. Each Lender represents to Administrative Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of Borrower, any Guarantor, and all applicable bank or other regulatory Laws relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to Borrower and Guarantors hereunder. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of Borrower and/or any Guarantor.
(b) Administrative Agent upon its receipt shall provide each Lender such notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to Lenders by Administrative Agent herein. To the extent not already available to a Lender, Administrative Agent shall also provide the Lender and/or make available for the Lender’s inspection during reasonable business hours and at the Lender’s expense, upon the Lender’s written request therefor: (i) copies of the Loan Documents; (ii) such information as is then in Administrative Agent’s possession in respect of the current status of principal and interest payments and accruals in respect of the Loan; (iii) copies of all current financial statements in respect of Borrower, any Guarantor or other person liable for payment or performance by Borrower of any obligations under the Loan Documents, then in Administrative Agent’s possession with respect to the Loan; and (iv) other current factual information then in Administrative Agent’s possession with respect to the Loan and bearing on the continuing creditworthiness of Borrower or any Guarantor, or any of their respective Affiliates; provided that nothing contained in this Section shall impose any liability upon Administrative Agent for its failure to provide a Lender any of such Loan Documents, information, or financial statements, unless such failure constitutes willful misconduct or gross negligence on Administrative Agent’s part; and provided, further, that Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to provide any Lender with any information in violation of Law or any contractual restrictions on the disclosure thereof (provided such contractual restrictions shall not apply to distributing to a Lender factual and financial information expressly required to be provided herein). Except as set forth above, Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lenders with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of Borrower or any Guarantor or any of their respective Affiliates which may come into the possession of any of the Agent-Related Persons.
CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT | (Alexan Southside) – Page 37 |
5.7 Indemnification of Administrative Agent. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, Lenders shall indemnify upon demand each Agent-Related Person (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of Borrower and without limiting the obligation of Borrower to do so), pro rata, and hold harmless each Agent-Related Person from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by it, INCLUDING THOSE IN WHOLE OR PART ARISING FROM ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT’S STRICT LIABILITY, OR COMPARATIVE, CONTRIBUTORY OR SOLE NEGLIGENCE; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for the payment to any Agent-Related Person of any portion of such Indemnified Liabilities to the extent determined in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Agent-Related Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct; provided, however, that no action taken in accordance with the directions of the Required Lenders shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section. Without limitation of the foregoing, to the extent that Administrative Agent is not reimbursed by or on behalf of Borrower, each Lender shall reimburse Administrative Agent upon demand for its ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including attorney fees) incurred by Administrative Agent as described in Section 6.10. The undertaking in this Section shall survive the payment of all Obligations hereunder and the resignation or replacement of Administrative Agent.
5.8 Administrative Agent in Individual Capacity. Administrative Agent, in its individual capacity, and its Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire equity interests in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting or other business with any party to the Loan Documents and their respective Affiliates as though Administrative Agent were not Administrative Agent hereunder and without notice to or consent of Lenders. Lenders acknowledge that Bank of America, N.A. (“Swap Bank”) or an Affiliate of Swap Bank and Borrower have entered or may enter into Swap Transactions. A portion of the Loan may be funded to honor Borrower’s payment obligations to Swap Bank or such Affiliate under the terms of such agreement, and Lenders shall have no right to share in any portion of such payments. Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, Bank of America, N.A. or its Affiliates may receive information regarding any party to the Loan Documents, or their respective Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such parties or such parties’ Affiliates) and acknowledge that Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them. With respect to its Pro Rata Share of the Loan, Bank of America, N.A. shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lenders and may exercise such rights and powers as though it were not Administrative Agent or Swap Bank, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” include Bank of America, N.A. in its individual capacity.
CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT | (Alexan Southside) – Page 38 |
5.9 Successor Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent may with the consent of Borrower (which consent shall not be required at any time a Default by Borrower exists, and otherwise shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), and at the request of the Required Lenders as a result of Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct in performing its duties under this Agreement shall, resign as Administrative Agent upon thirty (30) days’ notice to Lenders. If Administrative Agent resigns under this Agreement, the Required Lenders shall appoint from among Lenders a successor administrative agent for Lenders. If no successor administrative agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent may appoint, after consulting with Lenders and Borrower, a successor administrative agent from among Lenders. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor administrative agent hereunder, such successor administrative agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent and the term “Administrative Agent” shall mean such successor administrative agent and the retiring Administrative Agent’s appointment, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such retiring Administrative Agent. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article and other applicable Sections of this Agreement shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement. If no successor administrative agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent by the date which is thirty (30) days following a retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and Lenders shall perform all of the duties of Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above.
5.10 Releases; Acquisition and Transfers of Collateral.
(a) Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize Administrative Agent to transfer or release any lien on, or after foreclosure or other acquisition of title by Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders to transfer or sell, any Loan collateral (i) upon the termination of the Commitments and payment and satisfaction in full of all Indebtedness; (ii) constituting a release, transfer or sale of a lien or property if Borrower will certify to Administrative Agent that the release, transfer or sale is permitted under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (and Administrative Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate, without further inquiry); or (iii) after foreclosure or other acquisition of title (1) for a purchase price equal to or greater than ninety percent (90%) of value indicated in the most recent appraisal of the collateral obtained by Administrative Agent and made in accordance with regulations governing Administrative Agent, less any reduction indicated in the appraisal estimated by experts in such areas; or (2) if approved by the Required Lenders.
(b) If all or any portion of the Loan collateral is acquired by foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure, Administrative Agent shall take title to the collateral in its name or by an Affiliate of Administrative Agent, but for the benefit of all Lenders in their Pro Rata Shares on the date of the foreclosure sale or recordation of the deed in lieu of foreclosure (the “Acquisition Date”). Administrative Agent and all Lenders hereby expressly waive and relinquish any right of partition with respect to any collateral so acquired. After any collateral is acquired, Administrative Agent shall appoint and retain one or more Persons (individually and collectively, “Property Manager”) experienced in the management, leasing, sale and/or dispositions of similar properties.
CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT | (Alexan Southside) – Page 39 |
(c) After consulting with the Property Manager, Administrative Agent shall prepare a written plan for completion of construction (if required), operation, management, improvement, maintenance, repair, sale and disposition of the Loan collateral and a budget for the aforesaid, which may include a reasonable management fee payable to Administrative Agent (the “Business Plan”). Administrative Agent will deliver the Business Plan not later than the sixtieth (60th) day after the Acquisition Date to each Lender with a written request for approval of the Business Plan. If the Business Plan is approved by the Required Lenders, Administrative Agent and the Property Manager shall adhere to the Business Plan until a different Business Plan is approved by the Required Lenders. Administrative Agent may propose an amendment to the Business Plan as it deems appropriate, which shall also be subject to Required Lender approval. If the Business Plan (as may be amended) proposed by Administrative Agent is not approved by the Required Lenders, (or if sixty (60) days have elapsed following the Acquisition Date without a Business Plan being proposed by Administrative Agent), any Lender may propose an alternative Business Plan, which Administrative Agent shall submit to all Lenders for their approval. If an alternative Business Plan is approved by the Required Lenders, Administrative Agent may appoint one of the approving Lenders to implement the alternative Business Plan. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, unless in violation of an approved Business Plan or otherwise in an emergency situation, Administrative Agent shall, subject to subsection (a) of this Section, have the right but not the obligation to take any action in connection with the Loan collateral (including those with respect to property taxes, insurance premiums, completion of construction, operation, management, improvement, maintenance, repair, sale and disposition), or any portion thereof.
(d) Upon request by Administrative Agent or Borrower at any time, Lenders will confirm in writing Administrative Agent’s authority to sell, transfer or release any such liens of particular types or items of Loan collateral pursuant to this Section; provided, however, that (i) Administrative Agent shall not be required to execute any document necessary to evidence such release, transfer or sale on terms that, in Administrative Agent’s opinion, would expose Administrative Agent to liability or create any obligation or entail any consequence other than the transfer, release or sale without recourse, representation or warranty, and (ii) such transfer, release or sale shall not in any manner discharge, affect or impair the obligations of Borrower other than those expressly being released.
CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT | (Alexan Southside) – Page 40 |
(e) If the Lenders are unable to mutually agree on the purchase offer, and if only two (2) Lenders exist at the time Administrative Agent receives a purchase offer for Loan collateral for which one of the Lenders does not consent within ten (10) Business Days after notification from Administrative Agent, the consenting Lender may offer (“Purchase Offer”) to purchase all of non-consenting Lender’s rights, titles and interests in the collateral for a purchase price equal to non-consenting Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the net proceeds anticipated from such sale of such collateral (as reasonably determined by Administrative Agent), including the undiscounted face principal amount of any purchase money obligation not payable at closing (“Net Proceeds”). Within ten (10) Business Days thereafter the non-consenting Lender shall be deemed to have accepted such Purchase Offer unless the non-consenting Lender notifies Administrative Agent that it elects to purchase all of the consenting Lender’s right, title and interest in the collateral for a purchase price payable by the non-consenting Lender in an amount equal to the consenting Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Net Proceeds. Any amount payable hereunder by a Lender shall be due on the earlier to occur of the closing of the sale of the collateral or ninety (90) days after the Purchase Offer, regardless of whether the collateral has been sold.
5.11 Application of Payments. Except as otherwise provided below with respect to Defaulting Lenders, aggregate principal and interest payments, payments for Indemnified Liabilities, proceeds from a foreclosure or sale of the collateral, and net operating income from the collateral during any period it is owned by Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders (“Payments”) shall be apportioned pro rata among Lenders and payments of any fees (other than fees designated for Administrative Agent’s separate account) shall, as applicable, be apportioned pro rata among Lenders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, all Payments due and payable to Defaulting Lenders shall be due and payable to and be apportioned pro rata among Administrative Agent and Electing Lenders. Such apportionment shall be in the proportion that the Defaulting Lender Payment Amounts paid by them bears to the total Defaulting Lender Payment Amounts of such Defaulting Lender. Such apportionment shall be made until Administrative Agent and Lenders have been paid in full for the Defaulting Lender Payment Amounts. All pro rata Payments shall be remitted to Administrative Agent and all such payments not constituting payment of specific fees, and all proceeds of the Loan collateral received by Administrative Agent, shall be applied first, to pay any fees, indemnities, costs, expenses (including those in Section 5.7) and reimbursements then due to Administrative Agent from Borrower; second, to pay any fees, costs, expenses and reimbursements then due to Lenders from Borrower; third, to pay pro rata interest due in respect of the Indebtedness and Administrative Agent Advances; fourth, to pay or prepay pro rata principal of the Indebtedness and Administrative Agent Advances; fifth, to pay any indebtedness of Borrower under Swap Transactions; and last, to Borrower, if required by law, otherwise to the Lenders in Pro Rata Share percentages equal to their percentages as of the date of termination of the Aggregate Commitments.
5.12 Benefit. The terms and conditions of this Article (except for provisions of Section 5.9 requiring Borrower’s consent) are inserted for the sole benefit of Administrative Agent and Lenders; the same may be waived in whole or in part, with or without terms or conditions, without prejudicing Administrative Agent’s or Lenders’ rights to later assert them in whole or in part. Nothing in this Article (except for provisions of Section 5.9 requiring Borrower’s consent) is binding on Borrower or affects the rights or broadens the obligations of Borrower under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.
CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT | (Alexan Southside) – Page 41 |
5.13 Lead Arranger; Book Manager. None of the Lenders or other persons identified on the facing page or signature pages of this Agreement as a “syndication agent”, “documentation agent”, “co-agent”, “book manager”, or “lead manager”, “arranger”, “lead arranger” or “co-arranger” shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement other than, in the case of such Lenders, those applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, none of Lenders or other persons so identified as a “syndication agent”, “documentation agent”, “co-agent” or “lead manager” shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lenders. Each Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on any of Lenders or other persons so identified in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder.
ARTICLE 6 - GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
6.1 Consents; Borrower’s Indemnity. Except where otherwise expressly provided in the Loan Documents, in any instance where the approval, consent or the exercise of Administrative Agent’s or Lenders’ judgment is required, the granting or denial of such approval or consent and the exercise of such judgment shall be (a) within the sole discretion of Administrative Agent or Lenders; (b) deemed to have been given only by a specific writing intended for the purpose given and executed by Administrative Agent or Lenders; and (c) free from any limitation or requirement of reasonableness. Notwithstanding any approvals or consents by Administrative Agent or Lenders, neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender has any obligation or responsibility whatsoever for the adequacy, form or content of the Plans, the Budget, any appraisal, any contract, any change order, any lease, or any other matter incident to the Property or the construction of the Improvements. Administrative Agent’s or Lenders’ acceptance of an assignment of the Plans for the benefit of Administrative Agent and Lenders shall not constitute approval of the Plans. Any inspection, appraisal or audit of the Property or the books and records of Borrower, or the procuring of documents and financial and other information, by or on behalf of Administrative Agent shall be for Administrative Agent’s and Lenders’ protection only, and shall not constitute an assumption of responsibility to Borrower or anyone else with regard to the condition, value, construction, maintenance or operation of the Property, or relieve Borrower of any of Borrower’s obligations. Borrower has selected all surveyors, architects, engineers, contractors, materialmen and all other persons or entities furnishing services or materials to the Project. Neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender has any duty to supervise or to inspect the Property or the construction of the Improvements nor any duty of care to Borrower or any other person to protect against, or inform Borrower or any other person of the existence of, negligent, faulty, inadequate or defective design or construction of the Improvements. Neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall be liable or responsible for, and Borrower shall indemnify each Agent-Related Person and each Lender and their respective Affiliates, directors, officers, agents, attorneys and employees (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) from and against: (a) any claim, action, loss or cost (including reasonable attorney’s fees and costs) arising from or relating to (i) any defect in the Property or the Improvements, (ii) the performance or default of Borrower, Borrower’s surveyors, architects, engineers, contractors, or any other person engaged by, through or under Borrower, (iii) any failure to construct, complete, protect or insure the Improvements, (iv) the payment of costs of labor, materials, or services supplied for the construction of the Improvements, (v) the protection and preservation of the Loan collateral (including those with respect to property taxes, insurance premiums, completion of construction, operation, management, improvements, maintenance, repair, sale and disposition) at any time when a Default exists, (vi) the performance of any obligation of Borrower whatsoever, or (vii) Environmental Damages; (b) any and all claims by third-parties and related losses, damages, penalties, claims, demands, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses and disbursements (including reasonable attorney fees and costs) of any kind or nature whatsoever which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any such Indemnified Party in any way relating to or arising out of or in connection with (i) the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance or administration of any Loan Document or any other agreement, letter or instrument delivered in connection with the transactions contemplated thereby or the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, (ii) any Commitment or Loan, or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom, or (iii) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory (including any investigation of, preparation for, or defense of any pending or threatened claim, investigation, litigation or proceeding); (c) any and all claims, demands, actions or causes of action arising out of or relating to the lawful use of Information (as defined in Section 6.6) or other materials obtained through Box or a similar information system set up by and between Borrower and Administrative Agent to exchange information; and (d) any and all liabilities, losses, costs or expenses (including reasonable attorney fees and costs) that any Indemnified Party suffers or incurs as a result of the assertion of any foregoing claim, demand, action, cause of action or proceeding, or as a result of the preparation of any defense in connection with any foregoing claim, demand, action, cause of action or proceeding, in all cases, whether or not an Indemnified Party is a party to such claim, demand, action, cause of action or proceeding and whether it is defeated, successful or withdrawn, (all the foregoing, collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”), INCLUDING IN WHOLE OR PART ANY LOSS ARISING OUT OF AN INDEMNIFIED PARTY’S STRICT LIABILITY, OR COMPARATIVE, CONTRIBUTORY OR SOLE NEGLIGENCE; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnified Party, be available to the extent that such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, demands, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any Indemnified Party or the violation by any Indemnified Party of any Law applicable to it as a national bank, insurance company or other regulated institution or any holding company or Affiliate thereof. Upon demand by Administrative Agent, Borrower shall diligently defend any Claim which affects the Property or is made or commenced against Administrative Agent or any Lender, whether alone or together with Borrower or any other person, all at Borrower’s own cost and expense and by counsel to be approved by Administrative Agent in the exercise of its reasonable judgment. In the alternative, at any time Administrative Agent may elect to conduct its own defense on behalf of itself or any Lender through counsel selected by Administrative Agent and at the cost and expense of Borrower. Nothing, including any advance or acceptance of any document or instrument, shall be construed as a representation or warranty, express or implied, to any party by Administrative Agent or Lenders. Inspection shall not constitute an acknowledgment or representation by Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Construction Inspector that there has been or will be compliance with the Plans, the Loan Documents, or applicable Laws, governmental requirements and restrictive covenants, or that the construction is free from defective materials or workmanship. Inspection, whether or not followed by notice of Default, shall not constitute a waiver of any Default then existing, or a waiver of Administrative Agent’s and Lenders’ right thereafter to insist that the Improvements be constructed substantially in accordance with the Plans, and in accordance with the Loan Documents, and all applicable Laws, governmental requirements and restrictive covenants. Administrative Agent’s failure to inspect shall not constitute a waiver of any of Administrative Agent’s or Lenders’ rights under the Loan Documents or at Law or in equity.

6.2 Miscellaneous. This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, all of which are identical, and all of which counterparts together shall constitute one and the same instrument. The Loan Documents are for the sole benefit of Administrative Agent, Lenders and Borrower and are not for the benefit of any third party. A determination that any provision of this Agreement is unenforceable or invalid shall not affect the enforceability or validity of any other provision and the determination that the application of any provision of this Agreement to any person or circumstance is illegal or unenforceable shall not affect the enforceability or validity of such provision as it may apply to other persons, entities or circumstances. Time shall be of the essence with respect to Borrower’s obligations under the Loan Documents. This Agreement, and its validity, enforcement and interpretation, shall be governed by the laws of the State of Texas (without regard to any conflict of Laws principles) and applicable United States federal Law.
6.3 Notices.
6.3.1 Modes of Delivery, Changes. Except as otherwise provided herein, all notices, and other communications required or which any party desires to give under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be in writing. Unless otherwise specifically provided in such other Loan Document, all such notices and other communications shall be deemed sufficiently given or furnished if delivered by personal delivery, by nationally recognized overnight courier service, courier, by registered or certified United States mail, postage prepaid, or by facsimile (with, subject to subsection 6.3.2 below, a confirmatory duplicate copy sent by first class United States mail), addressed to the party to whom directed or by (subject to subsection 6.3.3 below) electronic mail address to Borrower, at the addresses set forth at the end of this Agreement or to Administrative Agent or Lenders at the addresses specified for notices on the Schedule of Lenders (unless changed by similar notice in writing given by the particular party whose address is to be changed). Any such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been given and received either at the time of personal delivery or, in the case of courier or mail, as of the date of first attempted delivery at the address and in the manner provided herein, or, in the case of facsimile, upon receipt; provided, however, that service of a notice required by any applicable statute shall be considered complete when the requirements of that statute are met. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no notice of change of address shall be effective except upon actual receipt. This Section shall not be construed in any way to affect or impair any waiver of notice or demand provided in any Loan Document or to require giving of notice or demand to or upon any person in any situation or for any reason.
CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT | (Alexan Southside) – Page 43 |
6.3.2 Effectiveness of Facsimile Documents and Signatures. Loan Documents may be transmitted and/or signed by facsimile. The effectiveness of any such documents and signatures shall, subject to applicable Law, have the same force and effect as manually-signed originals and shall be binding on all parties to the Loan Documents. Administrative Agent may also require that any such documents and signatures be confirmed by a manually-signed original thereof; provided, however, that the failure to request or deliver the same shall not limit the effectiveness of any facsimile document or signature.
6.3.3 Limited Use of Electronic Mail. Electronic mail and internet and intranet websites may be used only to distribute routine communications, such as financial statements and other information, and to distribute Loan Documents for execution by the parties thereto, and may not be used for any other purpose.
6.3.4 Reliance by Administrative Agent and Lenders. Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices (including telephonic Loan advance notices) purportedly given by or on behalf of Borrower even if (i) such notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other form of notice specified herein, or (ii) the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof. Borrower shall indemnify each Agent-Related Person and each Lender from all losses, costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such person on each notice purportedly given by or on behalf of Borrower, INCLUDING IN WHOLE OR PART FOR AN AGENT RELATED PERSON’S OR LENDER’S STRICT LIABILITY, OR COMPARATIVE, CONTRIBUTORY OR SOLE NEGLIGENCE, except to the extent of their gross negligence or willful misconduct. All telephonic notices to and other communications with Administrative Agent may be recorded by Administrative Agent, and each of the parties hereto hereby consents to such recording. If a Lender does not notify or inform Administrative Agent of whether or not it consents to, or approves of or agrees to any matter of any nature whatsoever with respect to which its consent, approval or agreement is required under the express provisions of this Agreement or with respect to which its consent, approval or agreement is otherwise requested by Administrative Agent, in connection with the Loan or any matter pertaining to the Loan, within ten (10) Business Days (or such longer period as may be specified by Administrative Agent) after such consent, approval or agreement is requested by Administrative Agent, the Lender shall be deemed to have given its consent, approval or agreement, as the case may be, with respect to the matter in question.
6.4 Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of Borrower is made to Administrative Agent or any Lender, or Administrative Agent or any Lender exercises its right of set-off, and such payment or the proceeds of such set-off or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by Administrative Agent or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law, to a depository (including Administrative Agent, any Lender or its or their Affiliates) for returned items or insufficient collected funds, or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such set-off had not occurred, and (b) each Lender severally agrees to pay to Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share of any amount so recovered from or repaid by Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect.
CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT | (Alexan Southside) – Page 44 |
6.5 Successors and Assigns.
(a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender, Administrative Agent may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder only as provided in Section 5.9 and this Section 6.5, and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an Eligible Assignee in accordance with the provisions of subsection (b) of this Section 6.5, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of subsection (d) of this Section, or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of subsection (f) of this Section 6.5. Any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Indemnified Parties) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.
(b) Any Lender may assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and Pro Rata Share of the Loan at the time owing to it); provided that:
(i) so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing the assigning Lender’s Commitment after the assignment must be at least $10,000,000.00, and except in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and Pro Rata Share of the Loan at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund as defined in subsection (h) of this Section with respect to a Lender, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes its Pro Rata Share of the Loan outstanding) subject to each such assignment, determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to Administrative Agent, shall not be less than $10,000,000.00 unless each of Administrative Agent and, so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed);
(ii) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to its Pro Rata Share of the Loan and the Commitment assigned;
CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT | (Alexan Southside) – Page 45 |
(iii) any assignment of a Commitment must be approved by Administrative Agent, unless the person that is the proposed assignee is itself a Lender (whether or not the proposed assignee would otherwise qualify as an Eligible Assignee); and
(iv) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500.00.
Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of this Agreement with respect to Borrower’s obligations surviving termination of this Agreement). An assignment shall not relieve a Lender from responsibility for any failure of performance by the Lender prior to the acceptance and recording by Administrative Agent of the Assignment and Assumption. Upon request, Administrative Agent shall prepare and Borrower shall execute and deliver a Note (“Replacement Note”) to the assignee Lender against surrender of the Note that it replaces for cancellation or endorsement of decreased principal amount, as applicable. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with subsection (d) of this Section 6.5.
(c) Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of Borrower, shall maintain at Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it (or the equivalent thereof in electronic form) and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amount (and stated interest) of each Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Loan owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and Borrower, Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.
CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT | (Alexan Southside) – Page 46 |
(d) Any Lender may, without the consent of, but with prior notice to Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or its Pro Rata Share of the Loan owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) Borrower, Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, and (iv) except to the extent consented to by Administrative Agent in its sole discretion with respect to each participation, any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement.
(e) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 1.7, 1.8 or 1.9 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant.
(f) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Note, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment, or any transfer upon foreclosure thereof, shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.
(g) If the consent of Borrower to an assignment or to an assignee is required hereunder (including a consent to an assignment which does not meet the minimum assignment threshold specified in clause (i) of the provision to the first sentence of subsection (b) above), Borrower shall be deemed to have given its consent ten (10) Business Days after the date notice thereof has been delivered by the assigning Lender (through Administrative Agent) unless such consent is expressly refused by Borrower prior to such tenth Business Day.
(h) As used herein, the following terms have the following meanings:
“Eligible Assignee” means (a) a Lender; (b) an Affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund or any other person (other than a natural person) approved by Administrative Agent, provided such Affiliate of a Lender, Approved Fund or other person is not a Foreign Lender and is rated BBB or better by Standard and Poors or Baa2 or better by Moodys, and (c) any such other person (other than a natural person and other than Borrower, any Guarantor, and any Person affiliated with Borrower or any Guarantor) approved by Administrative Agent and, unless a Default that has not been waived by Administrative Agent exists, Borrower (each such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).
CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT | (Alexan Southside) – Page 47 |
“Fund” means any person (other than a natural person) that is (or will be) engaged in making, purchasing, holding or otherwise investing in commercial real estate loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business.
“Approved Fund” means any Fund that is administered or managed by (a) a Lender, (b) an Affiliate of a Lender or (c) an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender.
6.6 Confidentiality. Each of Administrative Agent and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to the directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors of Administrative Agent, Lenders and their Affiliates (it being understood that the persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential); (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority; (c) to the extent required by applicable Laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process; (d) to any other party to this Agreement; (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the enforcement of rights hereunder; (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 6.6, to (i) any assignee of or participant in, or any prospective assignee of or participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any direct or indirect contractual counterparty or prospective counterparty (or such contractual counterparty’s or prospective counterparty’s professional advisor) to any Swap Transaction or credit derivative transaction relating to obligations of Borrower and Guarantor; (g) with the consent of Borrower; (h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 6.6 or (ii) becomes available to Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than Borrower or a Guarantor or their Affiliates; or (i) to the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any other similar organization. For the purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from Borrower or a Guarantor relating to Borrower or Guarantor or their business, other than any such information that is available to Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by Borrower or a Guarantor; provided that, in the case of information received from Borrower or a Guarantor after the date hereof, except for Financial Statements and CV Statements, such information is clearly identified in writing at the time of delivery as confidential. Any person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 6.6 shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such person would accord to its own confidential information. Administrative Agent and the Lenders may disclose the existence of this Agreement and information about this Agreement (excluding Information about Guarantors) to market data collectors or similar service providers to the lending industry.
CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT | (Alexan Southside) – Page 48 |
6.7 Set-off. In addition to any rights and remedies of Administrative Agent and Lenders provided by Law, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default, Administrative Agent and each Lender is authorized at any time and from time to time, without prior notice to Borrower or any other party to the Loan Documents, any such notice being waived by Borrower (on its own behalf and on behalf of each party to the Loan Documents to the fullest extent permitted by Law), to set-off and apply any and all deposits, general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, any time owing by Administrative Agent or such Lender hereunder or under any other Loan Document to or for the credit or the account of Borrower against any and all Obligations, irrespective of whether or not Administrative Agent or such Lender shall have made demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such Obligations may be denominated in a currency different from that of the applicable depositor indebtedness. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify Borrower and Administrative Agent after any such set-off and application made by such Lender; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.
6.8 Sharing of Payments. If, other than as expressly provided elsewhere herein, any Lender shall obtain on account of the portions of the Loan advanced by it, any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise) in excess of its ratable share (or other share contemplated hereunder) thereof, such Lender shall immediately (a) notify Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the portions of the Loan made by them, as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment in respect of such portions of the Loan or such participations, as the case may be, pro rata with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from the purchasing Lender under any of the circumstances described in Section 6.4 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the purchasing Lender in its discretion), such purchase shall to that extent be rescinded and each other Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price paid therefor, together with an amount equal to such paying Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such paying Lender’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered without further interest thereon. Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender may, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off), but subject to Section 6.7 with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of Borrower in the amount of such participation. Administrative Agent will keep records (which shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error) of participations purchased under this Section 6.8 and will in each case notify the Lenders following any such purchases or repayments. Each Lender that purchases a participation pursuant to this Section shall from and after such purchase have the right to give all notices, requests, demands, directions and other communications under this Agreement with respect to the portion of the Obligations purchased to the same extent as though the purchasing Lender were the original owner of the Obligations purchased.
CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT | (Alexan Southside) – Page 49 |
6.9 Amendments; Survival.
(a) Administrative Agent and Lenders may amend (whether pursuant to a separate intercreditor agreement or otherwise) any of the terms, conditions or agreements set forth in Article 5 (except for provisions applicable to Borrower’s consent in Section 5.9) or as to any other matter in the Loan Documents respecting payments between Administrative Agent or Lenders, without the consent of Borrower or any other Person or the execution by Borrower or any other Person of any such amendment or intercreditor agreement. Subject to the foregoing, Administrative Agent and Borrower or the applicable party to the Loan Documents, as the case may be, may (a) amend or waive any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or (b) consent to any departure by any party to the Loan Documents therefrom, which amendment, waiver or consent is intended to be within Administrative Agent’s discretion or determination, or is to a provision enforceable or determinable to the extent required by Administrative Agent (reasonable or otherwise), or in Administrative Agent’s reasonable determination, shall not have a material effect on Borrower or the Project. Subject to the foregoing, with the consent of the Required Lenders, Administrative Agent and Borrower or the applicable party to the Loan Documents, as the case may be, may, by instrument in writing signed by them, enter into any other amendment, waiver or consent (including a consent to the sale, transfer, pledge, mortgage or assignment of any indirect interest in Borrower, except no such consent shall be required if such sale, transfer, pledge, mortgage or assignment is expressly permitted under the Loan Documents). Each such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.
(b) Notwithstanding the above, no such amendment, waiver or consent shall:
(i) except as expressly permitted by this Agreement, extend or increase the Commitment of any Lender (or reinstate any Commitment terminated pursuant to Section 4.2), without the written consent of such Lender (it being understood that a waiver of a Default shall not constitute an extension or increase in any Lender’s Commitment);
(ii) postpone any date fixed by this Agreement or any other Loan Document for any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts due to the Lenders (or any of them) hereunder or under any other Loan Document, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby;
(iii) reduce the principal of, or the rate of interest specified herein on, any portion of the Loan or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, or to amend the definition of “Past Due Rate” or “late charges”; provided, however, that Administrative Agent may waive any obligation of Borrower to pay interest at the Past Due Rate and/or late charges for periods of up to thirty days, and only the consent of the Required Lenders shall be necessary to waive any obligation of Borrower to pay interest at the Past Due Rate or late charges thereafter;
(iv) change the percentage of the combined Commitments or of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Loan which is required for the Lenders or any of them to take any action hereunder, without the written consent of Borrower and each Lender;
CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT | (Alexan Southside) – Page 50 |
(v) change the definition of “Pro Rata Share” or “Required Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to amend, waive or otherwise modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the written consent of Borrower and each Lender;
(vi) amend this Section 6.9, or Section 6.8, without the written consent of Borrower and each Lender;
(vii) release the liability of Borrower or, except as expressly contemplated by the Guaranties, any existing Guarantor without the written consent of each Lender;
(viii) permit the sale, transfer, pledge, mortgage or assignment of any Loan collateral or any direct interest in Borrower, except as expressly permitted under the Loan Documents, without the written consent of each Lender; or
(ix) transfer or release any lien on, or after foreclosure or other acquisition of title by Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders transfer or sell, any Loan collateral except as permitted in Section 5.10, without the written consent of each Lender,
and, provided further, that no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by Administrative Agent in addition to the Lenders required above, affect the rights or duties of Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder, except that the Commitment of such Lender may not be increased without the consent of such Lender.
(c) This Agreement shall continue in full force and effect until the Indebtedness is paid in full and all of Administrative Agent’s and Lenders’ obligations under this Agreement are terminated; and all representations and warranties and all provisions herein for indemnity of the Indemnified Parties, Administrative Agent and Lenders (and any other provisions herein specified to survive) shall survive payment in full, satisfaction or discharge of the Indebtedness, the resignation or removal of Administrative Agent or replacement of any Lender, and any release or termination of this Agreement or of any other Loan Documents.
CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT | (Alexan Southside) – Page 51 |
6.10 Costs and Expenses. Without limiting any Loan Document and to the extent not prohibited by applicable Laws, Borrower shall pay when due, shall reimburse to Administrative Agent for the benefit of itself and Lenders on demand and shall indemnify Administrative Agent and Lenders from, all out-of-pocket fees, costs, and expenses paid or incurred by Administrative Agent and Lenders in connection with the negotiation, preparation and execution of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (and any amendments, approvals, consents, waivers and releases requested, required, proposed or done from time to time), or in connection with the disbursement, or administration of the Loan or the enforcement of the obligations of Borrower, the exercise of any right or remedy of Administrative Agent when a Default exists or collection of the Loan, including (a) all reasonable fees and expenses of Administrative Agent’s counsel in connection with the foregoing matters; (b) fees and charges of each Construction Inspector (subject to the limits in Section 2.6); (c) appraisal, re-appraisal and survey costs (subject to the limits of Section 2.13); (d) title insurance charges and premiums; (e) title search or examination costs, including abstracts, abstractors’ certificates and uniform commercial code searches; (f) judgment and tax lien searches for Borrower and each Guarantor; (g) escrow fees; (h) subject to Section 2.16(c), fees and costs of environmental investigations, site assessments and remediations; (i) recordation taxes, documentary taxes, transfer taxes and mortgage taxes; (j) filing and recording fees; (k) loan brokerage fees separately authorized by Borrower in writing; and (l) legal fees actually incurred by Administrative Agent in connection with the syndication of the Loan, but in no event to exceed $3,000.00. Borrower shall pay all costs and expenses incurred by Administrative Agent, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, if the obligations or any part thereof are sought to be collected by or through an attorney at law, whether or not involving probate, appellate, administrative or bankruptcy proceedings. Borrower shall pay all costs and expenses of complying with the Loan Documents, whether or not such costs and expenses are included in the Budget. Borrower’s obligations under this Section 6.10 shall survive the delivery of the Loan Documents, the making of advances, the payment in full of the Indebtedness, the release or reconveyance of any of the Loan Documents, the foreclosure of the Deed of Trust or conveyance in lieu of foreclosure, any bankruptcy or other debtor relief proceeding, and any other event whatsoever.
CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT | (Alexan Southside) – Page 52 |
6.11 Tax Forms.
(a) Each Lender, and each holder of a participation interest herein, that is not a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (a “Foreign Lender”) shall deliver to Administrative Agent and Borrower, prior to receipt of any payment subject to withholding (or upon accepting an assignment or receiving a participation interest herein, if earlier), two duly signed completed copies of either Form W-8BEN or any successor thereto (relating to such Foreign Lender and entitling it to a complete exemption from, or reduction of, withholding on all payments to be made to such Foreign Lender by Borrower pursuant to this Agreement) or Form W-8ECI or any successor thereto (relating to all payments to be made to such Foreign Lender by Borrower pursuant to this Agreement) of the United States Internal Revenue Service or such other evidence satisfactory to Borrower and Administrative Agent that such Foreign Lender is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of, United States withholding tax, including any exemption pursuant to Section 881(c) of the Code. Thereafter and from time to time, each such Foreign Lender shall (i) promptly submit to Administrative Agent and Borrower such additional duly completed and signed copies of one of such forms (or such successor forms as shall be adopted from time to time by the relevant United States taxing authorities) as may then be available under then current United States Laws and regulations to avoid, or such evidence as is satisfactory to Borrower and Administrative Agent of any available exemption from or reduction of, United States withholding taxes in respect of all payments to be made to such Foreign Lender by Borrower pursuant to the Loan Documents, (ii) promptly notify Administrative Agent and Borrower of any change in circumstances which would modify or render invalid any claimed exemption or reduction, and (iii) take such steps as shall not be materially disadvantageous to it, in the reasonable judgment of such Foreign Lender, and as may be reasonably necessary (including the re-designation of its lending office, if any) to avoid any requirement of applicable Laws that Borrower make any deduction or withholding for taxes from amounts payable to such Foreign Lender. If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent as may be necessary for Borrower and Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for the purposes of the preceding sentence, “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.
(b) Each Foreign Lender, to the extent it does not act or ceases to act for its own account with respect to any portion of any sums paid or payable to such Lender under any of the Loan Documents (for example, in the case of a typical participation by such Lender), shall deliver to Administrative Agent and Borrower on the date when such Foreign Lender ceases to act for its own account with respect to any portion of any such sums paid or payable, and at such other times as may be necessary in the determination of Administrative Agent or Borrower (in the reasonable exercise of its discretion), (i) two duly signed completed copies of the forms or statements required to be provided by such Lender as set forth above, to establish the portion of any such sums paid or payable with respect to which such Lender acts for its own account that is not subject to U.S. withholding tax, and (ii) two duly signed completed copies of United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY (or any successor thereto), together with any information such Lender chooses to transmit with such form, and any other certificate or statement of exemption required under the Code, to establish that such Lender is not acting for its own account with respect to a portion of any such sums payable to such Lender.
CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT | (Alexan Southside) – Page 53 |
(c) Borrower shall not be required to pay any additional amount to, or indemnify any Foreign Lender under Section 1.11(a) or (c) respectively with respect to any Taxes required to be deducted or withheld on the basis of the information, certificates or statements of exemption such Lender transmits with an United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY pursuant to this subsection (c) of this Section 6.11, or (ii) if such Lender shall have failed to satisfy the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.11; provided that if such Lender shall have satisfied the requirement of this Section 6.11 on the date such Lender became a Lender or ceased to act for its own account with respect to any payment under any of the Loan Documents, nothing in this Section 6.11 shall relieve Borrower of its obligation to pay any amounts pursuant to Section 1.11(a) or (c) in the event that, as a result of any change in any applicable law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order, or any change in the interpretation, administration or application thereof, such Lender is no longer properly entitled to deliver forms, certificates or other evidence at a subsequent date establishing the fact that such Lender or other person for the account of which such Lender receives any sums payable under any of the Loan Documents is not subject to withholding or is subject to withholding at a reduced rate.
(d) Administrative Agent may, without reduction, withhold any Taxes required to be deducted and withheld from any payment under any of the Loan Documents with respect to which Borrower is not required to pay additional amounts under this Section 6.11.
(e) Upon the request of Administrative Agent or Borrower, each Lender that is a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver to Administrative Agent two duly signed completed copies of United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-9. If such Lender fails to deliver such forms, then Administrative Agent or Borrower may withhold from any interest payment to such Lender an amount equivalent to the applicable back-up withholding tax imposed by the Code, without reduction.
(f) If any Tribunal asserts that Administrative Agent or Borrower did not properly withhold or backup withhold, as the case may be, any tax or other amount from payments made to or for the account of any Lender, such Lender shall indemnify Administrative Agent or Borrower therefor, including all penalties and interest and costs and expenses (including attorney fees) of Administrative Agent or Borrower. The obligation of Lenders under this subsection shall survive the removal or replacement of a Lender, the payment of all Obligations and the resignation or replacement of Administrative Agent. In addition, at any time, and from time to time, upon request by Administrative Agent or any Lender, Borrower will, at Borrower’s expense, provide any and all further instruments, certificates and other documents as may, in the opinion of Administrative Agent or such Lender, be necessary in order to verify Borrower’s identity and background in a manner satisfactory to Administrative Agent or such Lender.
CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT | (Alexan Southside) – Page 54 |
(g) Unless required by applicable Laws, at no time shall the Administrative Agent have any obligation to file for or otherwise pursue on behalf of a Lender, or have any obligation to pay to any Lender, any refund of Taxes withheld or deducted from funds paid for the account of such Lender, as the case may be. If any Lender or the Administrative Agent determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes with respect to which Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to Sections 1.11(a) or 1.11(c), or as to which it has been indemnified by Borrower pursuant to Section 1.11(d) (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to Section 1.11(a)), it shall pay to Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by Borrower under Section 1.11 with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) incurred by such recipient, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority) to such recipient in the event the recipient is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this subsection, in no event will the applicable recipient be required to pay any amount to Borrower pursuant to this subsection the payment of which would place the recipient in a less favorable net after-tax position than such recipient would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid. This subsection shall not be construed to require any recipient to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to Borrower or any other Person.
6.12 Further Assurances. Borrower will, upon Administrative Agent’s request, (a) promptly correct any defect, error or omission in any Loan Document; (b) execute, acknowledge, deliver, procure, record or file such further instruments and do such further acts as Administrative Agent deems necessary, desirable or proper to carry out the purposes of the Loan Documents and deems necessary to identify and subject to the liens and security interest of the Loan Documents any property intended to be covered thereby, including any renewals, additions, substitutions, replacements, or appurtenances to the Property; (c) execute, acknowledge, deliver, procure, file or record any document or instrument Administrative Agent reasonably deems necessary, desirable, or proper to protect the liens or the security interest under the Loan Documents against the rights or interests of third persons; and (d) provide such certificates, documents, reports, information, affidavits and other instruments required to comply with the requirements of any agency having jurisdiction over Administrative Agent.
6.13 Inducement to Lenders. The representations and warranties contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (a) are made to induce Lenders to make the Loan and extend any other credit to or for the account of Borrower pursuant hereto, and Administrative Agent and Lenders are relying thereon, and will continue to rely thereon, and (b) shall survive any bankruptcy proceedings involving Borrower, Guarantor or the Property, foreclosure, or conveyance in lieu of foreclosure.

(a) Arbitration. Except to the extent expressly provided below, any Dispute shall, upon the request of any party, be determined by binding arbitration in accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act, Xxxxx 0, Xxxxxx Xxxxxx Code (or if not applicable, the applicable state law), the then current rules for arbitration of disputes of financial services of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) and the “Special Rules” set forth below. In the event of any inconsistency, the Special Rules shall control. The filing of a court action is not intended to constitute a waiver of the right of Borrower, Administrative Agent or a Lender, including the suing party, thereafter to require submittal of the Dispute to arbitration. Any party to this Agreement may bring an action, including a summary or expedited proceeding, to compel arbitration of any Dispute in any court having jurisdiction over such action. For the purposes of this Section 6.22 only, the terms “party” and “parties” shall include any parent corporation, subsidiary or affiliate of Administrative Agent or a Lender involved in the servicing, management or administration of any obligation described in or evidenced by this Agreement, together with the officers, employees, successors and assigns of each of the foregoing.
CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT | (Alexan Southside) – Page 57 |
(b) Special Rules.
(i) The arbitration shall be conducted in Dallas, Texas.
(ii) The arbitration shall be administered by AAA who will appoint an arbitrator. If AAA is unwilling or unable to administer or legally precluded from administering the arbitration, or if AAA is unwilling or unable to enforce or legally precluded from enforcing any and all provisions of this Section 6.22, then any party to this Agreement may substitute, without the necessity of the agreement or consent of the other party or parties, another arbitration organization that has similar procedures to AAA but that will observe and enforce any and all provisions of this Section 6.22. All Disputes shall be determined by one arbitrator; however, if the amount in controversy in a Dispute exceeds Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000), upon the request of any party, the Dispute shall be decided by three arbitrators (for purposes of this Agreement, referred to collectively as the “arbitrator”).
(iii) All arbitration hearings will be commenced within ninety (90) days of the demand for arbitration and completed within ninety (90) days from the date of commencement; provided, however, that upon a showing of good cause, the arbitrator shall be permitted to extend the commencement of such hearing for up to an additional sixty (60) days.
(iv) The judgment and the award, if any, of the arbitrator shall be issued within thirty (30) days of the close of the hearing. The arbitrator shall provide a concise written statement setting forth the reasons for the judgment and for the award, if any. The arbitration award, if any, may be submitted to any court having jurisdiction to be confirmed and enforced, and such confirmation arid enforcement shall not be subject to arbitration.
(v) The arbitrator will have the authority to decide whether any Dispute is barred by the statute of limitations and, if so, to dismiss the arbitration on that basis. For purposes of the application of the statute of limitations, the service on AAA under applicable AAA rules of a notice of disputes is the equivalent of the filing of a lawsuit.
CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT | (Alexan Southside) – Page 58 |
(vi) Any dispute concerning this Section 6.22, including any such dispute as to the validity or enforceability of this Section 6.22, or whether a Dispute is arbitrable, shall be determined by the arbitrator; provided, however, that the arbitrator shall not be permitted to vary the express provisions of the Special Rules or the Reservation of Rights in subsection (c) below.
(vii) The arbitrator shall have the power to award legal fees and costs pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.
(viii) The arbitration will take place on an individual basis without reference to, resort to, or consideration of any form of class or class action.
(c) Reservations of Rights. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to (i) limit the applicability of any otherwise applicable statutes of limitation or repose or any waivers contained in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or (ii) apply to or limit the right of (A) any party (subject to Section 1.8 and Article 5) to exercise self help remedies such as (but not limited to) setoff, or (B) Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders to foreclose judicially or nonjudicially against any real or personal property collateral for the Loan, or to exercise judicial or nonjudicial power of sale rights, (C) any party to obtain from a court provisional or ancillary remedies such as (but not limited to) injunctive relief, writ of possession, prejudgment attachment, or the appointment of a receiver, or (D) any party to pursue rights against a party to this Agreement in a third-party proceeding in any action brought against any other party or parties in a state, federal or international court, tribunal or hearing body (including actions in specialty courts, such as bankruptcy and patent courts). A party, as applicable, may exercise the rights set forth in clauses (A) through (D), inclusive, before, during or after the pendency of any arbitration proceeding brought pursuant to this Agreement. Neither the exercise of self help remedies nor the institution or maintenance of an action for foreclosure or provisional or ancillary remedies shall constitute a waiver of the right of any party, including the claimant in any such action, to arbitrate the merits of the Dispute occasioning resort to such remedies. No provision in the Loan Documents regarding submission to jurisdiction and/or venue in any court is intended or shall be construed to be in derogation of the provisions in any Loan Document for arbitration of any Dispute.
(d) Conflicting Provisions for Dispute Resolution. If there is any conflict between the terms, conditions and provisions of this Section 6.22 and those of any other provision or agreement for arbitration or dispute resolution, the terms, conditions and provisions of this Section 6.22 shall prevail as to any Dispute arising out of or relating to (i) this Agreement, (ii) any other Loan Document, (iii) any related agreements or instruments, or (iv) the transaction contemplated herein or therein (including any claim based on or arising from an alleged personal injury or business tort). In any other situation, if the resolution of a given Dispute is specifically governed by another provision or agreement for arbitration or dispute resolution, the other provision or agreement shall prevail with respect to said Dispute.
CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT | (Alexan Southside) – Page 59 |
(e) Jury Trial Waiver in Arbitration. By agreeing to this Section 6.22, the parties irrevocably and voluntarily waive any right they may have to a trial by jury in respect of any Dispute.

THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR THE PARTIES ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT. THE PARTIES HERETO ARE EACH HEREBY AUTHORIZED TO FILE A COPY OF THIS SECTION 6.23 IN ANY PROCEEDING AS CONCLUSIVE EVIDENCE OF THIS WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO FURTHER REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS THAT IT HAS BEEN REPRESENTED IN THE SIGNING OF THIS AGREEMENT AND IN THE MAKING OF THIS WAIVER BY INDEPENDENT LEGAL COUNSEL, OR HAS HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE REPRESENTED BY INDEPENDENT LEGAL COUNSEL SELECTED OF ITS OWN FREE WILL, AND THAT IT HAS HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO DISCUSS THIS WAIVER WITH COUNSEL.

(e) Three (3) copies of a final as-built survey satisfactory to Administrative Agent and to the extent required by Administrative Agent complying with Exhibit “G”.
6. Direct Advances. Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes Administrative Agent on behalf of Lenders (but Administrative Agent shall have no obligation) to (i) advance Loan funds directly to Lenders to pay interest due on the Loan (or to Swap Bank to honor Borrower’s payment obligations to Swap Bank), and (ii) advance and directly apply the proceeds of any advance to the satisfaction of any of Borrower’s Obligations currently due and owing under any of the Loan Documents, even though Borrower did not include that amount in a Draw Request and/or no Default exists. Each such direct advance (except for application of a Borrower’s Deposit) shall be added to the outstanding principal balance of the Loan and shall be secured by the Loan Documents. Unless Borrower pays such interest from other resources, Administrative Agent may advance Loan funds pursuant to this Section 6 for interest payments as and when due. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed to permit Borrower to defer payment of interest on the Loan beyond the date(s) due. The allocation of Loan funds in the Budget for interest shall not affect Borrower’s absolute obligation to pay the same in accordance with the Loan Documents. Administrative Agent may hold, use, disburse and apply the Loan and the Borrower’s Deposit for payment of any obligation of Borrower under the Loan Documents. Borrower hereby assigns and pledges the proceeds of the Loan and any Borrower’s Deposit to Administrative Agent for itself and for the benefit of Lenders for such purposes. During the continuance of a Default which has not been waived in writing by Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent on behalf of Lenders may advance and incur such expenses as Administrative Agent deems necessary for the completion of the Improvements and to preserve the Property, and any other security for the Loan, and such expenses, even though in excess of the amount of the Loan, shall be secured by the Loan Documents and shall be payable to Administrative Agent on behalf of Lenders on demand. Administrative Agent on behalf of Lenders may disburse any portion of any advance at any time, and from time to time, to persons other than Borrower for the purposes specified in this Section and the amount of advances to which Borrower shall thereafter be entitled shall be correspondingly reduced.
EXHIBIT F (Alexan Southside) – Page 6 |
7. Conditions and Waivers. All conditions precedent to the obligation of Lenders to make any advance are imposed hereby solely for the benefit of Administrative Agent and Lenders, and no other party may require satisfaction of any such condition precedent or be entitled to assume that Lenders will refuse to make any advance in the absence of strict compliance with such conditions precedent. Administrative Agent shall have the right to verify the periodic progress, costs incurred by Borrower, and the estimated costs remaining to be incurred, after consultation with the Construction Inspector in accordance with Section 4(h) of this Exhibit “F”. No advance shall constitute an approval or acceptance by Administrative Agent of any construction work, or a waiver of any condition precedent to any further advance, or preclude Administrative Agent from thereafter declaring the failure of Borrower to satisfy such condition precedent to be a Default. No waiver by Administrative Agent of any condition precedent or obligation shall preclude Administrative Agent from requiring such condition or obligation to be met prior to making any other advance or from thereafter declaring the failure to satisfy such condition or obligation to be a Default.
8. Funding. Borrower shall establish and maintain a special account with Administrative Agent into which advances funded directly to Borrower (but no other funds), and excluding direct disbursements made to or by Administrative Agent on behalf of Lenders pursuant to this Agreement, shall be deposited by Borrower, and against which checks shall be drawn only for the payment of costs specified in the Budget, but which special account shall not be used for any other purpose. Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes Administrative Agent to deposit each advance requested by Borrower to the credit of Borrower in that account, by wire transfer or other deposit. Advances may also be made, in addition to other methods contemplated herein, at Administrative Agent’s option, by direct or joint check payment to any or all persons entitled to payment for work or services performed or material furnished in connection with the Project or the Loan, or by having the proceeds thereof made available to the Title Insurer (or its agent) for disbursement. Neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall not be required to, and has no responsibility to, supervise the proper application or distribution of funds to third parties.

LEASING AND TENANT MATTERS
Borrower and Administrative Agent on behalf of all Lenders agree as follows:
1. Approved Leases. Borrower shall not enter into any tenant lease of space in the Improvements unless approved or deemed approved by Administrative Agent, prior to execution. Borrower’s standard form of tenant lease, and any revisions thereto, must have the prior written approval of Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent hereby approves the residential form of lease attached as Exhibit “J”. Any tenant lease for space in the residential portion of the Improvements shall be “deemed” to have been approved by Administrative Agent that (a) is on the standard form lease attached as Exhibit “J”, or such other form approved by Administrative Agent, with no material deviations except as approved by Administrative Agent; (b) is entered into in the ordinary course of business with a bona fide unrelated third party tenant, and Borrower, acting in good faith and exercising due diligence, has determined that the tenant is financially capable of performing its obligations under the lease; (c) is received by Administrative Agent within fifteen (15) days after Administrative Agent’s request therefore; (d) reflects an arms-length transaction at then current market rate for comparable space; (e) contains no right to purchase the Property, or any present or future interest therein; (f) does not cover in excess of twenty-five percent (25%) of the aggregate net rentable area of the Improvements; and (g) is expressly subordinate to the Deed of Trust. All leases for space in the retail portion of the Improvements in excess of 2,000 square feet must be reviewed and approved by Administrative Agent. If requested by Administrative Agent following the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default which has not been waived in writing by Administrative Agent, Borrower shall provide to Administrative Agent a correct and complete copy of each tenant lease, including any exhibits, and any guaranty(ies) thereof (if any), prior to execution unless the lease in question is deemed to be satisfactory to Administrative Agent under the foregoing requirements. Borrower shall, throughout the term of this Agreement, pay all reasonable costs incurred by Administrative Agent in connection with Administrative Agent’s review and approval of tenant leases for retail space and each guarantee thereof (if any), including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs.
2. Effect of Lease Approval. No approval of any lease by Administrative Agent shall be for any purpose other than to protect Lenders’ security, and to preserve Lenders’ rights under the Loan Documents. No approval by Administrative Agent shall result in a waiver of any default of Borrower. In no event shall any approval by Administrative Agent of a lease be a representation of any kind, with regard to the lease or its adequacy or enforceability, or the financial capacity of any tenant or guarantor.
3. Delivery of Leasing Information. From time to time upon Administrative Agent’s request, Borrower shall promptly deliver to Administrative Agent (a) a complete rent roll of the Property in such detail as Administrative Agent may reasonably require, together with such leasing schedules and reports as Administrative Agent may reasonably require, and (b) such other information regarding tenants and prospective tenants and other leasing information as Administrative Agent may reasonably request.
EXHIBIT I (Alexan Southside) – Page 1 |

DEED OF TRUST NOTE
$____________ | April ____, 2015 |
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, BR BELLAIRE BLVD, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Borrower”) hereby promises to pay to the order of ___________________________________________ (“Named Lender”) under that certain Construction Loan Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) dated of even date herewith, executed by and among Borrower, Named Lender and the other lenders named therein (Named Lender and such other lenders are referred to herein, singularly, as a “Lender” and, collectively, as “Lenders”) and Bank of America, N.A., a national banking association, as agent for the benefit of the Lenders from time to time a party thereto (in such capacity, together with any and all of its successors and assigns, “Administrative Agent”), without offset, in immediately available funds in lawful money of the United States of America, at the Administrative Agent’s Office as defined in the Loan Agreement, the principal sum of up to ________________________________ AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($______________) (or the unpaid balance of all principal advanced against this Note, if that amount is less), together with interest on the unpaid principal balance of this Note from day to day outstanding as hereinafter provided.
1. Note; Interest; Payment Schedule and Maturity Date. This Note is one of the Notes referred to in the Loan Agreement and is entitled to the benefits thereof. The entire principal balance of this Note then unpaid shall be due and payable at the times as set forth in the Loan Agreement. Accrued unpaid interest shall be due and payable at the times and at the interest rate as set forth in the Loan Agreement until all principal and accrued interest owing on this Note shall have been fully paid and satisfied. Any amount not paid when due and payable hereunder shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, bear interest and if applicable a late charge as set forth in the Loan Agreement.
2. Security; Loan Documents. The security for this Note includes a Leasehold Deed of Trust, Assignment of Rents and Leases, Security Agreement, Fixture Filing and Financing Statement (which, as it may have been or may be amended, restated, modified or supplemented from time to time, is herein called the “Deed of Trust”) dated of even date herewith, from Borrower to PRLAP, INC., a Texas corporation, Trustee, covering certain property in Houston, Xxxxxx County, Texas, described therein (the “Property”). This Note, the Deed of Trust, the Loan Agreement and all other documents now or hereafter executed by Borrower or a Guarantor (as defined in the Loan Agreement), including any other Note, for the purpose of evidencing, securing, or guaranteeing the loan evidenced by this Note and any other Note referenced in and issued pursuant to the Loan Agreement (the “Loan”), are, as the same have been or may be amended, restated, modified or supplemented from time to time, herein sometimes called individually a “Loan Document” and together the “Loan Documents.” Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Loan Agreement.
EXHIBIT M (Alexan Southside) – Page 1 |
3. Defaults.
(a) It shall be a default (“Default”) under this Note and each of the other Loan Documents if after the expiration of any applicable notice and grace period (including that set forth in Section 4.1(a) of the Loan Agreement, (i) any principal, interest or other amount of money due under this Note is not paid in full when due, regardless of how such amount may have become due; (ii) any covenant, agreement, condition, representation or warranty herein or in any other Loan Documents is not fully and timely performed, observed or kept; or (iii) there shall occur any Default under the Deed of Trust or any other Loan Document. Upon the occurrence of a Default, Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders shall have the rights to declare the unpaid principal balance and accrued but unpaid interest on this Note, and all other amounts due hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, at once due and payable (and upon such declaration, the same shall be at once due and payable), to foreclose any liens and security interests securing payment hereof and, subject to any limitations contained in the Loan Documents, to exercise any of its other rights, powers and remedies under this Note, under any other Loan Document, or at Law or in equity.
(b) All of the rights, remedies, powers and privileges (together, “Rights”) of Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders provided for in this Note and in any other Loan Document are cumulative of each other and, subject to any limitations contained in the Loan Documents, of any and all other Rights at Law or in equity. The resort to any Right shall not prevent the concurrent or subsequent employment of any other appropriate Right. No single or partial exercise of any Right shall exhaust it, or preclude any other or further exercise thereof, and every Right may be exercised at any time and from time to time. No failure by Administrative Agent or Lenders to exercise, nor delay in exercising any Right, including but not limited to the right to accelerate the maturity of this Note, shall be construed as a waiver of any Default or as a waiver of any Right. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing provisions, the acceptance by Named Lender from time to time of any payment under this Note which is past due or which is less than the payment in full of all amounts due and payable at the time of such payment, shall not (i) constitute a waiver of or impair or extinguish the right of Administrative Agent on behalf of Lenders to accelerate the maturity of this Note or to exercise any other Right at the time or at any subsequent time, or nullify any prior exercise of any such Right, or (ii) constitute a waiver of the requirement of punctual payment and performance or a novation in any respect.
(c) If any holder of this Note retains an attorney in connection with any Default or at maturity or to collect, enforce or defend this Note or any other Loan Document in any lawsuit or in any probate, reorganization, bankruptcy, arbitration or other proceeding, then, subject to the limitations in the Loan Agreement, Borrower agrees to pay to each such holder, in addition to principal, interest and any other sums owing to Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, all costs and expenses incurred by such holder in trying to collect this Note or in any such suit or proceeding, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, investigation costs and all court costs, whether or not suit is filed hereon, whether before or after the Maturity Date, or whether in connection with bankruptcy, insolvency or appeal, or whether collection is made against Borrower or any Guarantor or endorser or any other person primarily or secondarily liable hereunder.
EXHIBIT M (Alexan Southside) – Page 2 |
4. Heirs, Successors and Assigns. The terms of this Note and of the other Loan Documents shall bind and inure to the benefit of the heirs, devisees, representatives, successors and assigns of the parties. The foregoing sentence shall not be construed to permit Borrower or Named Lender to assign the Loan (or any portion thereof) except as otherwise permitted under the Loan Documents. As further provided in the Loan Agreement, but subject to compliance with the requirements contained therein, Named Lender may, at any time, sell, transfer, or assign all or a portion of its interest in this Note, the Deed of Trust and the other Loan Documents.
5. General Provisions. Time is of the essence with respect to Borrower’s Obligations under this Note. Borrower and all sureties, endorsers, guarantors and any other party now or hereafter liable for the payment of this Note in whole or in part, hereby severally (a) waive demand, presentment for payment, notice of dishonor and of nonpayment, protest, notice of protest, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of acceleration and all other notices (except any notices which are specifically required by this Note or any other Loan Document, or otherwise required by Law), filing of suit and diligence in collecting this Note or enforcing any of the security herefor; (b) agree to any substitution, subordination, exchange or release of any such security or the release of any party primarily or secondarily liable hereon; (c) agree that neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall be required first to institute suit or exhaust its remedies hereon against Borrower or others liable or to become liable hereon or to perfect or enforce its rights against them or any security herefor; (d) consent to any extensions or postponements of time of payment of this Note for any period or periods of time and to any partial payments, before or after maturity, and to any other indulgences with respect hereto, without notice thereof to any of them; and (e) submit (and waive all rights to object) to non-exclusive personal jurisdiction of any state or federal court sitting in Dallas County, Texas, and venue in Dallas County, Texas, for the enforcement of any and all obligations under this Note and the Loan Documents; and (f) agree that their liability under this Note shall not be affected or impaired by any determination that any security interest or lien taken by Lender to secure this Note is invalid or unperfected. A determination that any provision of this Note is unenforceable or invalid shall not affect the enforceability or validity of any other provision and the determination that the application of any provision of this Note to any person or circumstance is illegal or unenforceable shall not affect the enforceability or validity of such provision as it may apply to other persons or circumstances. This Note may not be amended except in a writing specifically intended for such purpose and executed by the party against whom enforcement of the amendment is sought. Captions and headings in this Note are for convenience only and shall be disregarded in construing it. THIS NOTE, AND ITS VALIDITY, ENFORCEMENT AND INTERPRETATION, SHALL BE GOVERNED BY TEXAS LAW (WITHOUT REGARD TO ANY CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES) AND APPLICABLE UNITED STATES FEDERAL LAW.
6. Notices. Any notice, request, or demand to or upon Borrower, Administrative Agent or Lender shall be deemed to have been properly given or made when delivered in accordance with the Loan Agreement.
EXHIBIT M (Alexan Southside) – Page 3 |
7. No Usury. It is expressly stipulated and agreed to be the intent of Borrower, Administrative Agent and all Lenders at all times to comply with applicable state law or applicable United States federal law (to the extent that it permits a Lender to contract for, charge, take, reserve, or receive a greater amount of interest than under state law) and that this Section shall control every other covenant and agreement in this Note and the other Loan Documents. If applicable state or federal law should at any time be judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount called for under this Note or under any of the other Loan Documents, or contracted for, charged, taken, reserved, or received with respect to the Loan, or if Administrative Agent’s exercise of the option to accelerate the Maturity Date, or any prepayment by Borrower results in Borrower having paid any interest in excess of that permitted by applicable law, then all excess amounts theretofore collected by Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be credited on the principal balance of the Loan and all other indebtedness and the provisions of the Loan and the other Loan Documents shall immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new documents, so as to comply with the applicable law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder or thereunder. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Administrative Agent or Lenders for the use, forbearance, or detention of the Loan shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the full stated term of the Loan until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Loan does not exceed the maximum lawful rate from time to time in effect and applicable to the Loan for so long as the Loan is outstanding.
THE LOAN DOCUMENTS REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES.
THERE ARE NO ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES.
