ARTICLE
II
COMMITMENTS,
LOANS, NOTES AND PREPAYMENTS
2.01 Loans. Each
Lender severally agrees, on the terms and conditions of this Agreement, to make
a loan (each such loan being a “Loan” and
collectively, the “Loans”) on a
non-revolving basis to the Borrower in Dollars in a principal amount up to but
not exceeding the amount of the Commitment of such Lender. The Loans
shall be funded in one or more advances and repaid in accordance with this
Agreement. The initial advance of the Loans (the “Initial Advance”), in
the amount of $225,000,000, shall be made on the Closing Date. In the
event any of the Subsequent Funding Commitments are not fully funded on the
Closing Date, then the Subsequent Funding Advance made after the Closing Date
shall be made upon the Borrower’s satisfaction of the conditions for such
advances described in Section
2.11. After the Closing Date, the Borrower may Convert all or
a portion of the Outstanding Principal Amount of one Type of Loan into another
Type of Loan (as provided in Section 2.05) or
Continue one Type of Loan as the same Type of Loan (as provided in Section 2.05),
subject in all cases to the limit on the number of Interest Periods that may be
outstanding at any one time as set forth in the definition of “Interest
Period”.
2.02 Funding of
Loans. On the Closing Date, each Lender shall make available
from its Applicable Lending Office the amount of the Loan to be made by it on
such date to the Administrative Agent as specified by the Administrative Agent,
in immediately available funds, for account of the Borrower. The
amount so received by the Administrative Agent shall, subject to the terms and
conditions of this Agreement, be made available to the Borrower in immediately
available funds, for the uses and purposes identified on a sources and uses
statement approved by the Administrative Agent and the
Borrower.
2.03 Several
Obligations. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan to be
made by it on the date specified therefor shall not relieve any other Lender of
its obligation to make its Loan on such date, but neither any Lender nor the
Administrative Agent shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to
make a Loan to be made by such other Lender. The amounts payable by
the Borrower at any time hereunder and under the Note to each Lender shall be a
separate and independent debt. It is understood and agreed that the
Closing hereunder shall not occur unless each of the Lenders shall have funded
the amount of the Loan to be made by it.
2.04 Notes.
(a) Notes. The
Loan made by each Lender shall be evidenced by its Note.
(b) Substitution, Exchange and
Subdivision of Notes. No Lender shall be entitled to have its
Note substituted or exchanged for any reason, or subdivided for promissory notes
of lesser denominations, except (i) in connection with a permitted assignment of
all or any portion of such Lender’s Commitment, Loan and Note pursuant, and
subject to the terms and conditions of, Section 14.07(b)
(and, if requested by any Lender in connection with such permitted assignment,
the Borrower agrees to so exchange any such Note provided the original Note
subject to such exchange has been delivered to the Borrower) or (ii) as provided
in Section
14.30 with respect to severance of Notes if elected by Eurohypo, provided
the original Note severed, split, divided or otherwise replaced pursuant to
Section 14.30
has been delivered to the Borrower.
(c) Loss, Theft, Destruction or
Mutilation of Notes. In the event of the loss, theft or
destruction of any Note, upon the Borrower’s receipt of a reasonably
satisfactory indemnification agreement executed in favor of the Borrower by the
holder of such Note, or in the event of the mutilation of any Note, upon the
surrender of such mutilated Note by the holder thereof to the Borrower, the
Borrower shall execute and deliver to such holder a replacement Note in lieu of
the lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note.
2.05 Conversions or Continuations
of Loans.
(a) Subject
to Section 4.04,
the Borrower shall have the right to Convert Loans of one Type into Loans of
another Type or Continue Loans of one Type as Loans of the same Type, at any
time or from time to time; provided
that: (i) the Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent notice of
each such Conversion or Continuation as provided in Section 4.05;
(ii) Eurodollar Loans may be Converted only on the last day of an Interest
Period for such Loans unless the Borrower complies with the terms of Section 5.05 and
(iii) subject to Sections 5.01(a)
and 5.03, any
Conversion or Continuation of Loans shall be pro rata among the
Lenders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and without limiting the
rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under Article XII, in the
event that any Event of Default exists, the Administrative Agent may (and at the
request of the Required Lenders shall) suspend the right of the Borrower to
Convert any Loan into a Eurodollar Loan, or to Continue any Loan as a Eurodollar
Loan for so long as such Event of Default exists, in which event all Loans shall
be Converted (on the last day(s) of the respective Interest Periods therefor)
into, or Continued as, as the case may be, Base Rate Loans. In
connection with any such Conversion, a Lender may (at its sole discretion)
transfer a Loan from one Applicable Lending Office to another.
(b) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, at any time that a Hedge
Agreement is in effect, the Borrower shall have the right to choose only an
Interest Period which is the same as the Interest Rate Hedge Period, provided
that the foregoing shall only apply to a Hedge Agreement that is required by
Section 8.19(a)
of this Agreement.
2.06 Prepayment.
(a) Prepayment of the
Loans. Upon not less than ten (10) days’ prior written notice
to the Administrative Agent, the Borrower may prepay the Loans, in whole or in
part, in minimum increments of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) except as
otherwise provided by Section 2.06(c),
subject to the following:
(i) any
such prepayment shall be accompanied by the amount of interest theretofore
accrued but unpaid in respect of the principal amount so prepaid, in accordance
with Section
2.08;
(ii) except
as provided below, any such prepayment (except as a result of a Casualty Event
or Taking or any prepayment made pursuant to Section 10.03(j)
or Section
14.25)) shall be accompanied by a prepayment premium equal to the
following percentage of the principal amount so prepaid:
If
the prepayment occurs during the following period:
|
The
percentage is as follows:
|
During
the period from the Closing Date to and including the date which occurs
six (6) months after the Closing Date
|
1.00%
|
During
the period from the day immediately following the date which occurs six
(6) months after the Closing Date to and including the date which occurs
twelve (12) months after the Closing Date
|
0.50%
|
Thereafter
|
0.00%
|
and
(iii) such
prepayment shall be accompanied by any amounts payable to a Lender pursuant to
Section 5.05 as
a result of such prepayment while a Eurodollar Loan is in effect, in accordance
with Section
2.08.
If the
Loans are paid or prepaid in whole or in part for any reason (including
acceleration of the Loans or because the Loans automatically become due and
payable in accordance with Section 12.02(a)),
other than by a Casualty Event or Taking or any prepayment made pursuant to
Section 10.03(j)
or Section
14.25) at any time, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent
(on behalf of the Lenders) the amount(s) described in clauses (i), (ii), as applicable,
and (iii), of
the immediately preceding sentence. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
during the period from the Closing Date to and including the date which occurs
twelve (12) months after the Closing Date, no prepayment premium pursuant to
clause (ii) of
Section 2.06(a)
shall be payable in connection with any prepayment of principal made other than
pursuant to Section 2.09(a),
if such prepayment, when aggregated with all past prepayments made other than
pursuant to Section 2.09(a),
would not exceed an amount which is equal to twenty-five percent (25%) of the
aggregate sum of all principal amounts of the Loans advanced on or after the
Closing Date.
(b) Treatment of
Prepayments. Except for any mandatory prepayment made pursuant
to Section 2.07
and any prepayment made under Sections 2.06(c) and
2.09, and
notwithstanding when such prepayment is made, each partial prepayment of the
Loans shall be deemed to reduce the Allocated Loan Amounts pro-rata in
accordance with the Allocated Loan Amount for each Project.
(c) Prepayment Upon Release of
Projects. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
in this Section 2.06,
any prepayment made in connection with the release in accordance with the terms
contained in Section 2.09 of
any one or more of the Projects may be made at any time upon not less than ten
(10) days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, and without
reference to the minimum One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) increment requirements
of Section
2.06(a), but subject to payment of any applicable prepayment premium
under clause (ii) of
Section 2.06(a)
and compliance with the provisions set forth in clause (iii) of Section 2.06(a)
above, and the applicable provisions set forth in Section 2.09.
(d) Acknowledgments Regarding
Prepayment Premium. The prepayment premiums required by this
Section 2.06 are
acknowledged by the Borrower to be partial compensation to the Lenders for the
costs of reinvesting the proceeds of the Loans and for the loss of the
contracted rate of return on the Loans and shall be due in accordance with the
terms of this Section
2.06 upon any prepayment of the Loans, including any prepayment occurring
after an acceleration resulting from a violation of the provisions restricting
Transfers set forth in this Agreement. Furthermore, the Borrower
acknowledges that the loss that may be sustained by the Lenders as a result of
such a prepayment by the Borrower is not susceptible of precise calculation, and
the prepayment premium represents the good faith effort of the Borrower and the
Lenders to compensate the Lenders for such loss and the parties’ reasonable
estimate of such loss, and is not a penalty. By initialing this
provision where indicated below, the Borrower waives any rights it may have
under California Civil Code Section 2954.10, or any successor statute, and
the Borrower confirms that the Lenders’ agreement to make the Loans at the
interest rate and on the other terms set forth herein constitutes adequate and
valuable consideration, given individual weight by the Borrower, for the
prepayment provisions set forth in this Section 2.06.

2.07 Mandatory
Prepayments. If a Casualty Event or Taking shall occur with
respect to any Project, the Borrower, upon the Borrower’s or the Administrative
Agent’s receipt of the applicable Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Awards,
shall prepay the Loan, if required by the provisions of Article X, on the
dates and in the amounts specified therein without premium (but subject to the
provisions of Sections
2.08 and 5.05) or, at the
instruction of the Borrower (provided no Event of Default is then continuing),
shall be held in a Controlled Account by the Administrative Agent and applied to
prepayment of the Loan on the next Payment Date (in which case the amount so
held shall continue to bear interest at the rate(s) provided in this Agreement
until so applied to prepay the Loan). Nothing in this Section 2.07 shall be
deemed to limit any obligation of the Borrower under the Deeds of Trust or any
other Security Document, including any obligation to remit to the Cash Trap
Account, Project-Level Account, or a Controlled Account pursuant to the Deeds of
Trust or any of the other Security Documents the Insurance Proceeds,
Condemnation Awards or other compensation received in respect of any Casualty
Event or Taking.
2.08 Interest and Other Charges
on Prepayment. If the Loans are prepaid, in whole or in part,
pursuant to Section
2.06 or 2.07, each such
prepayment shall be made together with (a) the accrued and unpaid interest
on the principal amount prepaid, and (b) any amounts payable to a Lender
pursuant to Section
5.05 as a result of such prepayment while an Adjusted LIBO Rate is in
effect (provided the Borrower is notified of such amount or an estimate
thereof), including, without limitation, any such amounts that may result from a
prepayment other than on the last day of an Interest Period for a Eurodollar
Loan the Interest Period of which has been automatically Continued pursuant to
Section 4.05
during any period on which a prepayment date has been postponed in accordance
with the provisions set forth below in this Section 2.08; provided, however, that any
such prepayment shall be applied first, to the
prepayment of any portions of the Outstanding Principal Amount that are Base
Rate Loans and, second, to the
prepayment of any portions of the Outstanding Principal Amount that are
Eurodollar Loans applying such sums first to Eurodollar Loans of the shortest
maturity so as to minimize Rollover Breakage Costs (as defined below); provided further, however, that if an
Event of Default exists, the Administrative Agent may distribute such payment to
the Lenders for application in such manner as it or the Required Lenders,
subject to Section
4.02, may determine to be appropriate. Each prepayment
pursuant to Section
2.06 shall be made on the prepayment date specified in the notice of
prepayment delivered pursuant to Section 4.05, unless
such notice is revoked (or the date of prepayment is postponed) by a further
written notice (which may be delivered by the Borrower by facsimile to the
Administrative Agent). Any notice revoking a notice of prepayment (or
postponing a previously-specified prepayment date) shall be delivered not less
than one (1) Business Day prior to the date of prepayment specified in the
notice of prepayment; provided, however, in the event
that the Borrower revokes or postpones such notice during the last three (3)
Business Days of any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Loan, and provided that
the Borrower has not elected to Convert such Eurodollar Loan into a Base Rate
Loan pursuant to Section 2.05, the
Borrower acknowledges that losses, costs and expenses for which the Borrower is
responsible pursuant to Section 5.05(b) shall
include, without limitation, losses, costs and expenses that may subsequently
result from the early repayment, termination, cancellation or failure of the
Borrower to borrow any Eurodollar Loan that was to have been automatically
continued pursuant to Section 4.05 (“Rollover Breakage
Costs”).
2.09 Release of
Projects. Except as set forth in this Section 2.09, or
unless the Obligations have been paid in full, the Borrower shall have no right
to obtain the release of any Project from the Lien of the Loan Documents, and no
repayment or prepayment of any portion of the Loans shall cause, give rise to a
right to require, or otherwise result in, the release of the Lien of the Deed of
Trust on any Project or any other collateral securing the Loans. Any
release upon payment of the Obligations in full shall be in accordance with the
provisions of the Deeds of Trust governing releases.
(a) Release of
Projects. At any time following the Closing Date a Borrower on
one or more occasions may obtain, and the Administrative Agent shall take such

satisfaction of all conditions set forth in this Section 2.09(a). Such
release shall be in a form appropriate in each jurisdiction in which the
applicable Project is located and reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative
Agent and its counsel. Any notice of a proposed release of a Project
pursuant to this Section 2.09(a) may
be revoked (or the date proposed for such release may be postponed) by a further
written notice (which may be delivered by the Borrower by facsimile to the
Administrative Agent). Any notice revoking a proposed release (or
postponing the date for a proposed release) shall be delivered not less than one
(1) Business Day prior to the date of such release specified in the notice of
release; provided, however, in the event
that the Borrower revokes or postpones such notice during the last three (3)
Business Days of the Interest Period for any Eurodollar Loan, and provided that
the Borrower has not elected to Convert such Eurodollar Loan into a Base Rate
Loan pursuant to Section 2.05, the
Borrower acknowledges that the losses, costs and expenses for which the Borrower
shall be responsible under Section 5.05(b) shall

the Loans), plus any applicable prepayment premium payable in connection with
such prepayment pursuant to clause (ii) of
Section 2.06(a). The

clause (viii)
of this Section
2.09(a) (it being agreed that accrued interest on the principal amount to
be paid pursuant to clause (ii) of this Section 2.09(a) shall
not be due and payable in connection with such release (unless such accrued
interest is otherwise due and payable), but shall be due and payable on the next
Payment Date);
(iv) The
release of such Project is being made upon the sale of the Project to a
purchaser not affiliated with the Borrower pursuant to an arm’s length sale
transaction;
(v) Immediately
prior to such release, the Debt Service Coverage Ratio as calculated for all of
the Projects then securing the Loans other than the Project proposed to be
released (and assuming for purposes of the calculation of the DSCR Debt Service
that the principal of the Loans shall have been reduced by the principal amount
payable with respect to the Project to be released in accordance with clause (ii) of this
Section 2.09(a)
but taking into account any Unused Commitments, if any (including any reductions
of Subsequent Funding Commitments pursuant to Section 2.11) unless

being released and other out-of-pocket costs and expenses) incurred by the
Administrative Agent in connection with such release.
It is
understood and agreed that no such release shall impair or otherwise adversely
affect the Liens, security interests and other rights of the Administrative
Agent or the Lenders under the Loan Documents not being released (or as to the
parties to the Loan Documents and Projects subject to the Loan Documents not
being released).
(b) Any
Project released from the Lien of a Deed of Trust and the other Loan Documents
pursuant to this Section 2.09 shall,
effective upon such release, no longer be considered a “Project” for purposes of

indemnification obligations and other covenants which, by their terms, expressly
survive any such release.

Ratio for all the Projects then securing the Loans equals or exceeds 1.25:1.00,
or (f) the Loan-to-Value Ratio for each of the Projects then securing the Loans
does not exceed sixty percent (60%) based on a new or updated Appraisal obtained
by the Administrative Agent for each such Project not more than forty-five (45)
days prior to the First Call Date, such Appraisal to be at Borrower’s expense
and satisfactory to the Administrative Agent in all respects;
provided, however, in the event
that the required Loan-to-Value Ratio is not met, then Borrower may, in order to
satisfy the condition in this clause, pay down the Outstanding Principal Balance
of the Loans in an amount such that the required Loan-to-Value Ratio is achieved
(subject to the provisions of Section 5.05, as
supplemented by the provisions of Section 2.06(b)); and
(ii) the Outstanding Principal Amount under all Notes shall become automatically
due and payable on the sixth (6th) anniversary of the expiration of the Stub
Interest Period (the “Second Call Date”) if
(a) Borrower shall not have delivered written notice (the “Second Call Notice”)
to the Administrative Agent not more than one hundred twenty (120) days and not
less than forty-five (45) days prior to the Second Call Date of its intent to
extend the Loans until the seventh (7th)
anniversary of the expiration of the Stub Interest Period, (b) on or prior to
the Second Call Date the Borrower has not paid to the Administrative Agent in
accordance with the Fee Letter for the benefit of the Lenders an extension fee
equal to ten (10) basis points (0.10%) times the Outstanding Principal Amount
under all Notes as of the Second Call Date, (c) on the Second Call Date a
Default or an Event of Default exists, (d) so long as Administrative Agent shall
have provided written notice requiring extension of the existing Hedge Agreement
to Borrower within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Second Call Notice and
prior to the Second Call Date, on or prior to the Second Call Date, the Borrower
has not extended any existing Hedge Agreement required by Section 8.19(a), or
entered into a new or replacement Hedge Agreement which has an All-in-Rate that
is sufficient to satisfy a Debt Service Coverage Ratio for all the Projects then
securing the Loans of at least 1.25:1.00, and which otherwise satisfies the
terms of Section
8.19(a) with an expiration date of not earlier than six (6) months prior
to the seventh (7th)
anniversary of the expiration of the Stub Interest Period, or (e) the Borrower
shall not have demonstrated, to the reasonable satisfaction of the
Administrative Agent, as of the Second Call Date, that the Debt Service Coverage
Ratio for all the Projects then securing the Loans equals or exceeds
1.25:1.00.
2.11 Increase in Commitments;
Subsequent Funding Advance.
(a) The total
Commitments may be increased by an amount not to exceed $115,000,000 subject to
the terms and conditions of this Section
2.11(a). At any time prior to May 1, 2008, any Person that is
an Eligible Assignee may become a Lender (any such Person, a “New Lender”) upon the
execution and delivery of a joinder (a “Joinder”)
substantially in the form of Exhibit R attached
hereto, which, among other things, specifies the amount of such New Lender’s
Commitment (“New
Commitment Amount”), and acceptance thereof by the Administrative
Agent. Borrower hereby consents to any Joinder executed by a Person
that is an Eligible Assignee. Upon receipt of a Joinder, the
Administrative Agent shall provide written notice to all Lenders of the New
Commitment Amount and the increase in Commitments. Upon the effective
date of any increase in the Commitments (the “Increase Date”),
which Increase Date shall be mutually agreed upon by the Borrower, the Lenders
and the Administrative Agent (to, among other things, avoid or minimize breakage
costs), each New Lender shall advance to the Administrative Agent an amount
equal to such New Lender’s Proportionate Share (as determined by taking into
account such New Commitment Amounts) of the Outstanding Principal Amount, which
amount shall be paid by the Administrative Agent to the existing Lenders, such
that, following such payment on such Increase Date by each New Lender, each
Lender (including the New Lenders) holds its Proportionate Share (as determined
following the increase in the Commitments by the New Commitment Amounts) of the
Outstanding Principal Amount. Upon the payment by the New Lenders and
receipt by the other Lenders of the sums provided for herein, each new Lender
shall be deemed to have purchased and acquired portions of the Loans (but not
the Commitments) of each existing Lender from payments made by such New
Lender. Notwithstanding the receipt of such payments by the existing
Lenders by reason of the foregoing sentence, none of the Commitments of any
Lender shall be reduced, and the Borrower may continue to borrower from each
Lender up to the amount of its original Commitment, on and subject to the terms
and provisions of this Agreement. In the event that the receipt of
such payment on the Increase Date causes any Lender to incur any loss, cost or
expense referred to in Section 5.05(a), the
Borrower shall pay the same in accordance with the provisions of Section
5.05(a). The Borrower shall, in connection with each increase
of the Commitments and the execution and delivery of each Joinder, (i) issue a
new Note to each New Lender evidencing its share of the Loans and its New
Commitment Amount as set forth in the applicable Joinder, (ii) deliver
opinion letters of Borrower’s counsel with respect to all Loan Documents
delivered in connection with the increase in the Commitments, in form and
substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and in substantially the same
form as the opinion letters delivered in connection with the initial advance
hereunder, and (iii) pay all of the Administrative Agent’s reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses in connection with this Section
2.11.
(b) In the
event the Commitments are increased pursuant to the terms of Section 2.11(a)
above, Schedule 1.01(4) shall be revised and replaced with an Amended and
Restated Schedule 1.01(4) (Commitments and Proportionate Shares) (the “Amended and Restated
Schedule 1.01(4)”) which shall be circulated to the Borrower, the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders, which shall reflect the then total
Commitments of each Lender and the remaining unused amount of each Lender’s
Commitment (which amount shall be referred to herein as the “Subsequent Funding
Commitment”) available to fund any subsequent advance of the Loan in
accordance with the terms of this Section
2.11. At such time as the Commitments are increased, all
references in the Loan Documents to “Commitments” and all references in the Loan
Documents to “Proportionate Share” shall, at such time, thereafter refer to the
Amended and Restated Schedule 1.01(4). Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary contained in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, each
Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Lenders) to
enter into amendments and modifications of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents to the extent necessary to reflect the adjustment of the Commitments
and the Loans, the addition of New Lenders and the other matters contemplated by
this Section
2.11.
(c) In the
event the Commitments are increased pursuant to the terms of Section 2.11(a)
above, each Lender severally agrees, on the terms and conditions hereinafter set
forth in this Section
2.11, to make not more than one (1) subsequent advance of the Loan to
Borrower (the “Subsequent Funding
Advance”), in an amount not to exceed the Subsequent Funding Commitment
of such Lender. The “Subsequent Funding
Commitment Percentage” means, as to any Lender at any time, the
percentage equivalent of such Lender’s Subsequent Funding Commitment divided by
the Subsequent Funding Commitments of all Lenders at such time. The
Subsequent Funding Commitments of the Lenders having Subsequent Funding
Commitments shall expire, and be of no further force and effect, if not drawn on
or before May 1, 2008 (the “Expiration
Date”). Thereafter, the obligation of any Lender to make the
Subsequent Funding Advance shall terminate, and each Lender’s Commitment shall
equal the sum of the then-Outstanding Principal Amount of the Loans funded by
such Lender.
(d) Once
repaid or prepaid, the Borrower may not reborrow the Subsequent Funding
Advance.
(e) Subsequent Funding Advance
Notice. The Subsequent Funding Advance shall be made upon the
irrevocable written notice (which may include notice via facsimile confirmed
immediately by a telephone call) of the Borrower in the form of Exhibit P attached
hereto (the “Subsequent Funding Advance

if
the Loan is to be made as a Eurodollar Loan, the applicable Interest
Period(s). If the Subsequent Funding Advance Notice shall fail
to specify the Type of Loan or shall fail to specify the applicable
Interest Period for any Eurodollar Loan requested, such Loan will be made
as a Eurodollar Loan with a one month Interest
Period.
|
(f) Funding of
Commitment. Each Lender shall make an amount equal to its
Subsequent Funding Commitment Percentage of the aggregate amount of the Loans
requested in the Subsequent Funding Advance Notice available to the
Administrative Agent for the account of the Borrower by 12:00 p.m. (New York
time) on the borrowing date specified therein in Dollars immediately available
to the Administrative Agent. Unless, in the case of the Subsequent
Funding Advance, any applicable condition specified in this Section 2.11 has not
been satisfied, such funds shall then be made available to the Borrower by the
Administrative Agent by wire transferring to such account as shall have been
designated to it by the Borrower the aggregate of the amounts made available to
the Administrative Agent by the Lenders (in like funds as received by the
Administrative Agent). All amounts to be funded pursuant to this
Section shall be funded in Dollars.
(g) Notice to
Lenders. Upon receipt of the Subsequent Funding Advance Notice
conforming with the terms of this Section 2.11,
the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender thereof and of the
amount of such Lender’s Subsequent Funding Commitment Percentage (as applicable)
of the Loans described therein.
(h) Reserved.
(i) Effect of Subsequent Funding
Commitments on Allocated Loan Amounts. Upon the making of the
Subsequent Funding Advance pursuant hereto, the Allocated Loan Amount for each
Project shall be increased as set forth in Schedule 1.01(1)
attached hereto.
(j) Conditions to The Subsequent
Funding Advance. The obligation of each Lender to make the
Subsequent Funding Advance is subject to the satisfaction of the following
conditions precedent:
(i) Subsequent Funding Advance
Notice. The Administrative Agent shall have received the
Subsequent Funding Advance Notice in compliance with the terms of this Section
2.11;
(ii) Representations and
Warranties. The representations and warranties made by the
Borrower, the Operating Partnership and the other Borrower Parties contained in
the Loan Documents shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as
of the date the Subsequent Funding Advance is made, with the same effect as if
made on and as of such date, and the Borrower acknowledges that the submission
of the Subsequent Funding Advance Notice shall constitute a certification by the
Borrower that such representations and warranties are true and correct in all
material respects on and as of the date of the Subsequent Funding Advance
Notice;
(iii) No Existing
Default. No Default or Event of Default shall exist or shall
result from the making of the Subsequent Funding Advance;
(iv) Agreements Supplementing

Subsequent Funding Advance Notice submitted by the Borrower hereunder shall
constitute a representation and warranty by Borrower hereunder, as of the date
of such notice and as of the date of the making of the Subsequent Funding
Advance, that the conditions in this Section 2.11 have
been satisfied.
(i) Unused Commitment
Fee. In the event Loans in the New Commitment Amounts are not
fully funded on the Increase Date, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative
Agent for allocation to the Lenders in accordance with their respective
Subsequent Funding Commitment Percentage, an unused commitment fee equal to
twenty-five basis points (0.25%) per annum (computed over the applicable monthly
period on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days
elapsed) times the actual
daily amount of the aggregate outstanding Subsequent Funding Commitments of all
Lenders having outstanding Subsequent Funding Commitments in effect on such day
calculated for each day during the applicable calendar month. The
unused commitment fee shall accrue at all times while the Subsequent Funding
Commitments of the Lenders remain in effect pursuant to this Agreement, but not
beyond the Expiration Date, and shall be due and payable monthly in arrears on
the first Business Day after the end of each calendar month (or portion thereof,
in the case of the first payment), commencing with the first Business Day of the
first full calendar month to occur after the Closing Date, and ending on the
Expiration Date (or the end of such earlier month in which the Subsequent
Funding Commitments have been fully funded or expired); provided, however, that if the
Lenders fail to advance the Subsequent Funding Advance requested by the Borrower
and so long as the provisions of Section 2.11(j) above
have been satisfied, the unused commitment fee provided herein shall thereafter
cease to accrue. The unused commitment fee shall be calculated on a
monthly basis in arrears.

PAYMENTS
OF PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST
3.01 Repayment of
Loans. The Borrower hereby promises to pay to the
Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender the principal amount of such
Lender’s outstanding Loans to the Borrower, together with accrued and unpaid
interest, any applicable fees and all other amounts due under the Loan Documents
with respect to such Loans, which amounts, to the extent not previously paid,
shall, without notice, demand or other action, be due and payable on the
Maturity Date.
3.02 Interest.
(a) The
Borrower hereby promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of
each Lender interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Loan (which may be
Base Rate Loans and/or Eurodollar Loans) made by such Lender for the period from
and including the date of such Loan to but excluding the date such Loan shall be
paid in full if paid in the time and manner provided for in Section 4.01, at the
following rates per annum:
(i) during
such periods as such Loan is a Base Rate Loan, the Base Rate plus the Applicable
Margin; and
(ii) during
such periods as such Loan is a Eurodollar Loan, for each Interest Period
relating thereto, the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Loan for such Interest Period
plus the
Applicable Margin.
(b) Accrued
interest on each Loan shall be payable (i) monthly in arrears on each Payment
Date for all interest accrued through but not including the relevant Payment
Date and (ii) in the case of any Loan, upon the payment or prepayment thereof
(except as expressly provided in Section 2.09(a)(iii))
or the Conversion of such Loan to a Loan of another Type (but only on the
principal amount so paid, prepaid or Converted), except that interest payable
hereunder at the Post-Default Rate shall be payable from time to time on
demand.
(c) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, after the Maturity Date and during
any period when an Event of Default exists, the Borrower shall pay to the
Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender interest at the applicable
Post-Default Rate on the outstanding principal amount of any Loan made by such
Lender, any interest payments thereon not paid when due and on any other amount
due and payable by the Borrower hereunder, under the Notes and any other Loan
Documents.
(d) Promptly
after the determination of any interest rate provided for herein or any change
therein, the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Lenders to
which such interest is payable and to the Borrower, but the failure of the
Administrative Agent to provide such notice shall not affect the Borrower’s
obligation for the payment of interest on the Loans.
(e) In
addition to any sums due under this Section 3.02, the
Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders a
late payment premium in the amount of four percent (4%) of (i) any payments
of principal under the Loans not made when due, and (ii) any payments of
interest or other sums under the Loans not made when due, provided, in each
case, that such payments are not made within the earlier of (A) two (2)
Business Days after the Borrower receives written notice from the Administrative
Agent of Borrower’s failure to make such payment when due and (B) five (5)
days after the date the same became due, which late payment premium shall be due
with any such late payment or upon demand by the Administrative
Agent. Such late payment charge represents the reasonable estimate of
the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders of a fair average
compensation for the loss that may be sustained by the Lenders due to the
failure of the Borrower to make timely payments. Such late charge
shall be paid without prejudice to the right of the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders to collect any other amounts provided herein or in the other Loan
Documents to be paid or to exercise any other rights or remedies under the Loan
Documents.
(f) Reserved.

Account. The Borrower shall, and shall cause the Property

the Borrower or the Property Manager constituting Rent or other revenue or sums
of any kind from the Projects, into the applicable Project-Level Account for
such Project in accordance with the Project-Level Account Security Agreement and
(b) upon an Event of Default, and upon written request of the Administrative
Agent, deliver irrevocable written instructions to all tenants under Leases to
deliver all Rents payable thereunder directly to the applicable Project-Level
Account for such Project. The Borrower shall not maintain any
checking, money market or other deposit accounts for the deposit and holding of
any revenues or sums derived from the ownership or operation of the Projects
other than the Project-Level Account (except for such replacement or additional
deposit accounts in which the Administrative Agent shall have been granted,
pursuant to a written instrument in form and substance satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent, a first priority security interest on the terms provided
herein, in which case the “Project-Level Account” referred to herein shall
include such replacement or additional account), other than (i) accounts
into which funds initially deposited in a Project-Level Account have been, or
may be, transferred in compliance with the Project-Level Account Security
Agreement and (ii) any Cash Trap Account or Controlled Account required
hereunder.

PAYMENTS;
PRO RATA TREATMENT; COMPUTATIONS; ETC.
4.01 Payments.
(a) Payments by the
Borrower. Except to the extent otherwise provided herein, all
payments of principal, interest and other amounts to be made by the Borrower
under this Agreement, the Notes and any other Loan Document, shall be made in
Dollars, in immediately available funds, without deduction, set-off or
counterclaim, to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Account,
not later than 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date on which such
payment shall become due (each such payment made after such time on such due
date to be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business
Day).
(b) Application of
Payments. The Borrower may, at the time of making each payment
under this Agreement, any Note or any other Loan Document for the account of any
Lender (if such payment is not comprised solely of interest), specify to the
Administrative Agent (which shall so notify the intended recipient(s) thereof)
the Loans or other amounts to which such payment is to be applied (and in the
event that the Borrower fails to so specify, or if an Event of Default exists,
the Administrative Agent may apply such payment to amounts then due to the
Lenders, subject to Section 4.02,
pro rata in accordance with their Proportionate Share and, thereafter, may apply
any remaining portion of such payment in such manner as it or the Required
Lenders, subject to Section 4.02, may
determine to be appropriate). To the extent that the Borrower has the
right pursuant to this Section 4.01(b) to
designate the obligations to which a payment made by the Borrower under the Loan
Documents is to be applied, the Borrower shall exercise such rights in such a
manner as shall result in the application of such payment to the designated
obligation in a manner that will result in each Lender receiving its pro rata share of the amount
so paid by the Borrower on account of the designated obligation in proportion to
the respective amounts then due and payable on account of the designated
obligation to all Lenders entitled to payment of the designated
obligation. Notwithstanding the foregoing and to avoid any potential
ambiguity between this provision and Section 2.06,
nothing in the foregoing sentence is intended to modify or supersede Section
2.06.
(c) Payments Received by the
Administrative Agent. Each payment received by the
Administrative Agent under this Agreement, any Note or any other Loan Document
for account of any Lender shall be paid by the Administrative Agent promptly to
such Lender (and in any event, the Administrative Agent shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to pay such sums to such Lender on the same Business Day such
sums are received by the Administrative Agent provided the Administrative Agent
has actually received such sums prior to 3:00 p.m. on such Business Day), in
immediately available funds, for account of such Lender’s Applicable Lending
Office for the Loan or other obligation in respect of which such payment is
made. In the event that the Administrative Agent fails to make such
payment to such Lender within two (2) Business Days of receipt, subject to any
delays resulting from force majeure, then such Lender shall be entitled to
interest from the Administrative Agent at the Federal Funds Rate from the date
that such payment should have been paid by the Administrative Agent to such
Lender until the Administrative Agent makes such payment.
(d) Extension to Next Business
Day. If the due date of any payment under this Agreement or
any Note would otherwise fall on a day that is not a Business Day, such date
shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and interest shall be
payable for any principal so extended for the period of such
extension.
4.02 Pro Rata
Treatment. Except to the extent otherwise provided
herein: (a) each borrowing from the Lenders under Section 2.01 or
Section 2.11
shall be made from the Lenders on a pro rata basis according to the amounts of
their respective Commitments or, in the case of Subsequent Funding Advances,
according to their respective Subsequent Funding Commitments, as applicable;
(b) except as otherwise provided in Section 5.04,
Eurodollar Loans having the same Interest Period shall be allocated pro rata
among the Lenders according to the amounts of their respective Commitments (in
the case of the making of Loans) or their respective Loans (in the case of
Conversions and Continuations of Loans); (c) each payment or prepayment of
principal of Loans by the Borrower shall be made for account of the Lenders on a
pro rata basis in accordance with the respective unpaid principal amounts of the
Loans held by them; and (d) each payment of interest on Loans by the
Borrower shall be made for the account of the Lenders on a pro rata basis in
accordance with the amounts of interest on such Loans then due and payable to
the respective Lenders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in this Agreement or in any of the other Loan Documents, (i) all
payments received by the Administrative Agent on account of interest, principal
(including, without limitation, prepayments), fees or other amounts which are
required under this Agreement to be paid to the Lenders pro rata, or in
accordance with their respective Proportionate Shares, shall be paid to the
Lenders pro rata in proportion to the respective amounts of interest, principal,
fees or other amounts, as applicable, then due and payable to all Lenders
pursuant to the Loan Documents, and (ii) during the existence of an Event of
Default, all payments received by the Administrative Agent with respect to the
Loan shall be applied as provided in that certain Co-Lender Agreement to be
entered into by and among the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, as the same
may be Modified from time to time.
4.03 Computations. Interest

days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in
the period for which payable.

8.19(g), 10.03(j) or 14.25 of this
Agreement or Section
7.08 of the Deed of Trust, (b) Conversions or prepayments made pursuant
to Section 5.04,
and (c) prepayments made pursuant to Section 2.06 or Section 2.09 (which
shall be governed by such Sections) each borrowing, Conversion, Continuation and
partial prepayment of principal other than made pursuant to Section 2.09
(collectively, “Loan
Transactions”) of Loans shall be in an aggregate amount at least equal to
$1,000,000 (Loan Transactions of or into Loans of different Types or Interest
Periods at the same time hereunder shall be deemed separate Loan Transactions
for purposes of the foregoing, one for each Type or Interest Period); provided that if any
Loans or borrowings would otherwise be in a lesser principal amount for any
period, such Loans shall be Base Rate Loans during such
period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the minimum amount of
$1,000,000 shall not apply to Conversions of lesser amounts into a tranche of
Loans that has (or will have upon such Conversion) an aggregate principal amount
exceeding such minimum amount and one Interest Period.
4.05 Certain
Notices. Notices by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent
regarding Loan Transactions and the selection of Types of Loans and/or of the
duration of Interest Periods shall be effective only if received by the
Administrative Agent not later than 3:00 PM, New York City time, on the

Notices
of the selection of Types of Loans and/or of the duration of Interest Periods
shall be irrevocable. Each notice of a Loan Transaction shall specify
the amount (subject to Section 4.04), Type,
and Interest Period of such proposed Loan Transaction, and the date (which shall
be a Business Day) of such proposed Loan Transaction. Notices for
Conversions and Continuations shall be in the form of Exhibit L
attached hereto. Each such notice specifying the duration of an
Interest Period shall specify the portion of the Loans to which such Interest
Period is to relate. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify
the Lenders of the contents of each such notice. If the Borrower
fails to select (i) the Type of Loan or (ii) the duration of any Interest Period
for any Eurodollar Loan within the time period (i.e., three (3) Business Days
prior to the first day of the next applicable Interest Period) and otherwise as
provided in this Section 4.05,
such Loan (if outstanding as a Eurodollar Loan) will automatically be continued
as a Eurodollar Loan as of the last day of the then current Interest Period for
such Loan, with such Eurodollar Loan having an Interest Period of one month, and
the Borrower shall be deemed to have provided to the Administrative Agent three
(3) Business Days prior to the first day of such Interest Period a duly
completed and unqualified notice requesting such Continuation in the form of
Exhibit L.
4.06 Non-Receipt of Funds by the
Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall
have been notified by a Lender or the Borrower (each, for purposes of this Section 4.06, a
“Payor”) prior
to the date on which such Payor is to make payment to the Administrative Agent
of (in the case of a Lender) the proceeds of a Loan to be made by such Payor
hereunder or (in the case of the Borrower) a payment to the Administrative Agent
for the account of one or more of the Lenders hereunder (such payment being
herein called a “Required Payment”),
which notice shall be effective upon receipt, that such Payor does not intend to
make such Required Payment to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent
may assume that such Required Payment has been made and may, in reliance upon
such assumption (but shall not be required to), make the amount thereof
available to the intended recipient(s) on such date; and, if such Payor has not
in fact made the Required Payment to the Administrative Agent, the recipient(s)
of such payment from the Administrative Agent shall, on demand, repay to the
Administrative Agent the amount so made available together with interest thereon
in respect of each day during the period commencing on the date (the “Advance Date”) such
amount was so made available by the Administrative Agent until the date the
Administrative Agent recovers such amount at a rate per annum equal to (a) the
Federal Funds Rate for such day in the case of payments returned to the
Administrative Agent by any of the Lenders or (b) the applicable interest rate
due hereunder with respect to payments returned by the Borrower to the
Administrative Agent and, if such recipient(s) shall fail to promptly make such
payment, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount, on
demand, from such Payor, together with interest at the same rates as aforesaid;
provided that
if neither the recipient(s) nor such Payor shall return the Required Payment to
the Administrative Agent within three (3) Business Days (five (5) days in the
case the Borrower is the Payor) of the Advance Date, then, retroactively to the
Advance Date, such Payor and the recipient(s) shall each be obligated to pay
interest on the Required Payment as follows:
(i) if the
Required Payment shall represent a payment to be made by the Borrower to the
Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders, the Borrower and the
recipient(s) shall each be obligated to pay interest retroactively to the
Advance Date in respect of the Required Payment at the Post-Default Rate
(without duplication of the obligation of the Borrower under Section 3.02 to pay
interest on the Required Payment at the Post-Default Rate), it being understood
that the return by the recipient(s) of the Required Payment to the
Administrative Agent shall not limit such obligation of the Borrower under Section 3.02 to
pay interest at the Post-Default Rate in respect of the Required Payment, and it
being further understood that to the extent the Administrative Agent actually
receives from the Borrower any such interest at the Post-Default Rate on such
Required Payment, such amount so received shall be credited against the amount
of interest (if any) payable by the applicable recipient(s), and
(ii) if the
Required Payment shall represent proceeds of a Loan to be made by the Lenders to
the Borrower, such Payor and the Borrower shall each be obligated retroactively
to the Advance Date to pay interest in respect of the Required Payment pursuant
to whichever of the rates specified in Section 3.02 is
applicable to the Type of such Loan, it being understood that the return by the
Borrower of the Required Payment to the Administrative Agent shall not limit any
claim that the Borrower may have against such Payor in respect of such Required
Payment and shall not relieve such Payor of any obligation it may have hereunder
or under any other Loan Documents to the Borrower and no advance by the
Administrative Agent to the Borrower under this Section 4.06
shall release any Lender of its obligation to fund such Loan except as set forth
in the following sentence. If any such Lender shall thereafter
advance any such Required Payment to the Administrative Agent, together with
interest on such Required Payment as provided herein, such Required Payment
shall be deemed such Lender’s applicable Loan to the Borrower and shall be
advanced by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower to the extent the Borrower
has remitted the Required Payment and such interest to the Administrative
Agent.
4.07 Sharing of Payments,
Etc.
(a) Sharing. If
any Lender shall obtain payment of any principal of or interest on any Loan
owing to it or payment of any other amount under this Agreement or any other
Loan Document through the exercise (subject to the provisions of Section 14.10) of any
right of set-off, banker’s lien or counterclaim or similar right or otherwise
(other than from the Administrative Agent as provided herein), and, as a result
of such payment, such Lender shall have received a greater percentage of the
principal of or interest on the Loans or such other amounts then due hereunder
or thereunder by the Borrower to such Lender than the percentage received by any
other Lender, it shall promptly purchase from such other Lenders participations
in (or, if and to the extent specified by such Lender, direct interests in) the
Loans or such other amounts, respectively, owing to such other Lenders (or in
interest due thereon, as the case may be) in such amounts, and make such other
adjustments from time to time as shall be equitable, to the end that all the
Lenders shall share the benefit of such excess payment (net of any expenses that
may be incurred by such Lender in obtaining or preserving such excess payment)
pro rata in accordance with the unpaid principal of and/or interest on the Loans
or such other amounts, respectively, owing to each of the Lenders. To
such end all the Lenders shall make appropriate adjustments among themselves (by
the resale of participations sold or otherwise) if such payment is rescinded or
must otherwise be restored. Each Lender agrees that it shall turn
over to the Administrative Agent (for distribution by the Administrative Agent
to the other Lenders in accordance with the terms of this Agreement) any payment
(whether voluntary or involuntary, through the exercise of any right of setoff
or otherwise) on account of the Loans held by it in excess of its ratable
portion of payments on account of the Loans obtained by all the
Lenders.
(b) Consent by the
Borrower. The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing
such a participation (or direct interest) may exercise (subject, as among the
Lenders, to Section
14.10) all rights of set-off, banker’s lien, counterclaim or similar
rights with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a
direct holder of Loans or other amounts (as the case may be) owing to such
Lender in the amount of such participation.
(c) Rights of Lenders;
Bankruptcy. Nothing contained herein shall require any Lender
to exercise any right of set-off, banker’s lien or counterclaim or similar right
or otherwise or shall affect the right of any Lender to exercise, and retain the
benefits of exercising, any such right with respect to any other indebtedness or
obligation of the Borrower. If, under any applicable bankruptcy,
insolvency or other similar law, any Lender receives a secured claim in lieu of
a set-off to which this Section 4.07
applies, then such Lender shall, to the extent practicable, exercise its rights
in respect of such secured claim in a manner consistent with the rights of the
Lenders entitled under this Section 4.07 to
share in the benefits of any recovery on such secured claim.

YIELD
PROTECTION, ETC.
5.01 Additional
Costs.
(a) Costs of Making or
Maintaining Eurodollar Loans. The Borrower shall pay directly
to each Lender from time to time such amounts as such Lender may determine to be
necessary to compensate such Lender for any costs that such Lender determines
are attributable to its making or maintaining of any Eurodollar Loans, or its
obligation to make any Eurodollar Loans, hereunder, or, subject to the following
provisions of this Article V, any
reduction in any amount receivable by such Lender hereunder in respect of any of
such Eurodollar Loans or such obligation (such increases in costs and reductions
in amounts receivable being herein called “Additional Costs”),
provided such Additional Costs result from any Regulatory Change
that:
(i) shall
subject any Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office for any of such Eurodollar
Loans) to any tax, duty or other charge in respect of such Eurodollar Loans or
its Note or changes the basis of taxation of any amounts payable to such Lender
under this Agreement or its Note in respect of any of such Eurodollar Loans
(other than Excluded Taxes); or
(ii) imposes
or Modifies any reserve, special deposit or similar requirements (other than the
Reserve Requirement utilized in the determination of the Adjusted LIBO Rate for
such Eurodollar Loan) relating to any extensions of credit or other assets of,
or any deposits with or other liabilities of, any Lender (including any of such
Eurodollar Loans or any deposits referred to in the definition of “LIBO Rate” in
Section 1.01),
or any commitment of such Lender (including the Commitment of such Lender
hereunder); or
(iii) imposes
any other condition affecting this Agreement or the Note of any Lender (or any
of such extensions of credit or liabilities) or its Commitment.
If any
Lender requests compensation from the Borrower under this Section 5.01(a)
or Section
5.01(b), the Borrower may, by notice to such Lender (with a copy to the
Administrative Agent), suspend the obligation of such Lender thereafter to make
or Continue Eurodollar Loans, or to Convert Base Rate Loans into Eurodollar
Loans, until the Regulatory Change giving rise to such request ceases to be in
effect or until the Borrower notifies such Lender that the Borrower is lifting
such suspension (in which case the provisions of Section 5.04
shall be applicable), provided that such
suspension shall not affect the right of such Lender to receive the compensation
so requested for so long as any Eurodollar Loan remains in effect.
(b) Costs Attributable to
Regulatory Change or Risk-Based Capital Guidelines. Without
limiting the effect of the provisions of this Section 5.01 (but
without duplication), the Borrower shall pay to each Lender from time to time on
request such amounts as such Lender may determine to be necessary to compensate
such Lender (or, without duplication, the bank holding company or other legal
entity of which such Lender is a subsidiary) for any costs that it determines
are attributable to the maintenance of its Eurodollar Loans hereunder by such
Lender (or any Applicable Lending Office or such bank holding company or other
legal entity), pursuant to any law or regulation or any interpretation,
directive or request (whether or not having the force of law and whether or not
failure to comply therewith would be unlawful) of any Governmental Authority
(i) following any Regulatory Change with respect to such law, regulation,
interpretation, directive or request resulting in such costs or
(ii) implementing any risk-based capital guideline or other requirement of
capital (whether or not having the force of law and whether or not the failure
to comply therewith would be unlawful) hereafter issued by any Governmental
Authority implementing at the national level the Basel Accord, in respect of its
Commitment or its Eurodollar Loans (such compensation to include an amount equal
to any reduction of the rate of return on assets or equity of such Lender (or
any Applicable Lending Office or such bank holding company or other legal
entity) to a level below that which such Lender (or any Applicable Lending
Office or such bank holding company or other legal entity) could have achieved
but for such law, regulation, interpretation, directive or
request).
(c) Notification and
Certification. Each Lender shall notify the Borrower of any
event occurring after the date hereof entitling such Lender to compensation
under subsections
(a) or (b) of this Section 5.01
(setting forth in reasonable detail the basis of such determination) as promptly
as practicable, but in any event within sixty (60) days, after such Lender
obtains actual knowledge thereof; provided that
(i) if any Lender fails to give such notice within sixty (60) days after it
obtains actual knowledge of such an event, such Lender shall, with respect to
compensation payable pursuant to this Section 5.01 in
respect of any costs resulting from such event, be entitled to payment under
this Section 5.01
only for costs incurred from and after the date sixty (60) days prior to the
date that such Lender does give such notice and (ii) each Lender shall
designate a different Applicable Lending Office (if applicable) for the
Eurodollar Loans of such Lender affected by such event if such designation will
avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such compensation and will not, in
the sole opinion of such Lender, be disadvantageous to such
Lender. Each Lender shall furnish to the Borrower a certificate
setting forth the basis and amount of each request by such Lender for
compensation under subsection (a)
or (b) of
this Section 5.01. Determinations
and allocations by any Lender for purposes of this Section 5.01 of
the effect of any Regulatory Change pursuant to subsection (a) or
(b) of this
Section 5.01, or
of the effect of capital maintained pursuant to subsection (b) of
this Section 5.01, on
its costs or rate of return of maintaining Eurodollar Loans or its obligation to
make Eurodollar Loans, or on amounts receivable by it in respect of Eurodollar
Loans, and of the amounts required to compensate such Lender under this Section 5.01, as
set forth in the certificate of the Lender, shall be prima facie evidence of the
accuracy of the determinations and calculations contained or asserted
therein. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein,
it shall be a condition to the Borrower’s obligation to pay compensation under
subsections (a)
or (b) of this
Section 5.01
that such compensation requirements are also being imposed on substantially all
other similar classes or categories of commercial loans or commitments of such
Lender similarly affected by the Regulatory Change and the other guidelines and
requirements referred to in this Section
5.01.
5.02 Limitation on Eurodollar
Loans. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if, on
or prior to the determination of any LIBO Rate for any Interest Period for any
Eurodollar Loan:
(a) after
making reasonable efforts, the Administrative Agent determines, which
determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error, that quotations of
interest rates for the relevant deposits referred to in the definition of “LIBO
Rate” in Section 1.01 are
not being provided in the relevant amounts or for the relevant maturities for
purposes of determining rates of interest for Eurodollar Loans as provided
herein; or
(b) the
Administrative Agent determines, which determination shall be conclusive absent
manifest error, that, as a result of circumstances arising after the Closing
Date, the relevant rates of interest referred to in the definition of “LIBO
Rate” in Section 1.01
upon the basis of which the rate of interest for Eurodollar Loans for such
Interest Period is to be determined are not likely adequately to cover the cost
to such Lenders of making or maintaining Eurodollar Loans for such Interest
Period;
then
the Administrative Agent shall give the Borrower and each Lender prompt notice
thereof and, so long as such condition remains in effect, the Lenders shall be
under no obligation to make additional Eurodollar Loans, to Continue Eurodollar
Loans or to Convert Base Rate Loans into Eurodollar Loans, and the Borrower
shall, on the last day(s) of the then current Interest Period(s) for the
outstanding Eurodollar Loans, either prepay such Eurodollar Loans in accordance
with Sections
2.06 and 2.07 or, in
accordance with Section 2.05,
Convert such Eurodollar Loans into Base Rate Loans or other Eurodollar Loans in
amounts and maturities which are still being
provided. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) if the applicable
conditions under clauses (a) or (b) of this Section 5.02 affect
only a portion of the Eurodollar Loans, the balance of the Eurodollar Loans may
continue as Eurodollar Loans and (ii) if the applicable conditions under
clauses (a) and
(b) of this
Section 5.02
only affect certain Interest Periods, the Borrower, subject to the terms and
conditions of this Agreement, may elect to have Eurodollar Loans with such other
Interest Periods.
5.03 Illegality. Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Agreement, if it becomes unlawful for any Lender or
its Applicable Lending Office to honor its obligation to make or maintain
Eurodollar Loans hereunder (and, in the sole opinion of such Lender, the
designation of a different Applicable Lending Office would either not avoid such
unlawfulness or would be disadvantageous to such Lender), then such Lender shall
promptly notify the Borrower thereof (with a copy to the Administrative Agent)
and such Lender’s obligation to make or Continue, or to Convert portions of its
Loan of any other Type into, Eurodollar Loans shall be suspended until such time
as such Lender may again make and maintain Eurodollar Loans (in which case the
provisions of Section 5.04
shall be applicable).
5.04 Treatment of Affected
Loans. If the obligation of any Lender to make Eurodollar
Loans or to Continue, or to Convert Base Rate Loans into, Eurodollar Loans shall
be suspended pursuant to Sections 5.01
or 5.03,
then such Lender’s Eurodollar Loans shall be automatically Converted into Base
Rate Loans on the last day(s) of the then current Interest Period(s) for
Eurodollar Loans (or, in the case of a Conversion resulting from a circumstance
described in Section 5.03, on
such earlier date as such Lender may specify to the Borrower with a copy to the
Administrative Agent) and, unless and until either (a) such Lender gives notice
as provided below that the circumstances specified in Sections 5.01
or 5.03
that gave rise to such Conversion no longer exist or (b) the Borrower, in the
case of Section
5.01, ends any suspension by the Borrower:
(a) to the
extent that such Lender’s Eurodollar Loans have been so Converted, all payments
and prepayments of principal that would otherwise be applied to such Lender’s
Eurodollar Loans shall be applied instead to its Base Rate Loans;
and
(b) all
portions of its Loan that would otherwise be made or Continued by such Lender as
Eurodollar Loans shall be made or Continued instead as Base Rate Loans, and all
Base Rate Loans of such Lender that would otherwise be Converted into Eurodollar
Loans shall remain as Base Rate Loans.
If such
Lender gives notice to the Borrower with a copy to the Administrative Agent that
the circumstances specified in Section 5.01
or 5.03
that gave rise to the Conversion of such Lender’s Eurodollar Loans pursuant to
this Section 5.04 no
longer exist (which notice such Lender agrees to give promptly upon such
circumstances ceasing to exist) or the Borrower terminates its applicable
suspension at a time when Eurodollar Loans made by other Lenders are
outstanding, such Lender’s Base Rate Loans shall be automatically Converted, on
the first day(s) of the next succeeding Interest Period(s) for such outstanding
Eurodollar Loans, to the extent necessary so that, after giving effect thereto,
all Base Rate and Eurodollar Loans are allocated among the Lenders ratably (as
to principal amounts, Types and Interest Periods) in accordance with their
respective Commitments.
5.05 Compensation. The
Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for account of each Lender, upon
the request of such Lender through the Administrative Agent, such amount as
shall be sufficient to compensate it for any loss, cost or expense that such
Lender reasonably determines is attributable to:
(a) any
payment, mandatory or optional prepayment or Conversion of a Eurodollar Loan
made by such Lender for any reason (including the acceleration of the Loans
pursuant to Article
XII) on a date other than the last day of the Interest Period for such
Loan;
(b) any
failure by the Borrower for any reason to prepay a Eurodollar Loan pursuant to a
notice of prepayment given in accordance with Section 2.06 (or any
notice timely given postponing the date for prepayment given in accordance with
Section 2.08),
unless such notice is timely revoked pursuant to a notice of revocation given in
accordance with Section 2.08;
or
(c) the
assignment of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the applicable
Interest Period as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section
5.07.
Without
limiting the effect of the preceding provisions, such compensation shall include
an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest that
otherwise would have accrued on the principal amount so paid, prepaid, Converted
or not borrowed for the period from the date of such payment, prepayment,
Conversion or failure to borrow to the last day of the then current Interest
Period for such Loan (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, the Interest
Period for such Loan that would have commenced on the date specified for such
borrowing) at the applicable Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Loan provided for
herein over
(ii) the amount of interest that such Lender would earn on such principal
amount for such period if such Lender would have bid in the London interbank
market for Dollar deposits of leading banks in amounts comparable to such
principal amount and with maturities comparable to such period (as reasonably
determined by such Lender), or if such Lender shall not, or shall cease to, make
such bids, the equivalent rate, as reasonably determined by such Lender, derived
from Reuters Screen LIBOR01 Page (formerly operated as Page 3750 of the Dow
Xxxxx Markets Service (Telerate)) or other publicly available source as
described in the definition of “LIBO Rate” in Section 1.01,
plus, in the case of Section 5.05(c), the
amount of interest for such period paid to such Lender pursuant to Section
5.07. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or
amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 5.05 shall be
delivered to the Borrower and shall be prima facie evidence of the accuracy of
the determinations and calculations contained or asserted
therein. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due
on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt
thereof. Any payment due to any of the Lenders pursuant to this Section 5.05 shall be
deemed additional interest under such Lender’s Note.
5.06 Taxes.
(a) Payments Free of
Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation
of the Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free
and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes;
provided that
if the Borrower shall be required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes
from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so
that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to
additional sums payable under this Section 5.06) the
Administrative Agent and each Lender (as the case may be) receives an amount
equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii)
the Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) the Borrower shall pay the
full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with
applicable law.
(b) Payment of Other Taxes by
the Borrower. In addition, the Borrower shall pay any Other
Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable
law.
(c) Indemnification by the
Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative
Agent and each Lender, within ten (10) days after written demand therefor, for
the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by the
Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, on or with respect to
any payment by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder
(including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or
attributable to amounts payable under this Section 5.06) and any
penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect
thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or
legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A
certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the
Borrower by a Lender or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on
behalf of a Lender, shall be prima facie evidence of the accuracy of the
determinations and calculations contained or asserted therein.
(d) Evidence of
Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of
Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority,
the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a
certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing
such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of
such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.
(e) Foreign
Lenders. Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption
from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which
the Borrower is located, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party,
with respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to the Borrower
(with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by
applicable law, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by
applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower as will permit such
payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate. Until
such documentation is provided, the Borrower shall be entitled to take all
actions that are required to comply with Applicable Laws with respect to
payments payable hereunder on account of Loans made to the Borrower by any
Foreign Lender who has not complied with the requirements of this Section 5.06(e), and
such actions shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default.
(f) Refunds. If
the Administrative Agent or a Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it
has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been
indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid
additional amounts pursuant to this Section 5.06,
provided no Major Default or Event of Default exists, it shall pay over such
refund to the Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or
additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 5.06 with
respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all
out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender and without
interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority
with respect to such refund); provided, that the
Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to
repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or
other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the
Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or
such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental
Authority. This Section 5.06(f) shall
not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make
available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes which
it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.
5.07 Replacement of
Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation pursuant to Section 5.01 or
5.06, or any
Lender’s obligation to Continue Loans of any Type, or to Convert Loans of any
Type into the other Type of Loan, shall be suspended pursuant to Section 5.01 or
5.03 (any such
Lender requesting such compensation, or whose obligations are so suspended,
being herein called a “Requesting Lender”),
the Borrower, upon five (5) Business Days notice to such Requesting Lender and
the Administrative Agent, may require that such Requesting Lender transfer all
of its right, title and interest under this Agreement and such Requesting
Lender’s Note and its interest in the other Loan Documents to an Eligible
Assignee (a “Proposed
Lender”) identified by the Borrower that is satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent in its sole discretion (i) if such Proposed Lender
agrees to assume all of the obligations of such Requesting Lender hereunder, and
to purchase all of such Requesting Lender’s Loan hereunder for consideration
equal to the aggregate outstanding principal amount of such Requesting Lender’s
Loan, together with interest thereon to the date of such purchase (to the extent
not paid by the Borrower), and satisfactory arrangements are made for payment to
such Requesting Lender of all other amounts accrued and payable hereunder to
such Requesting Lender as of the date of such transfer (including any fees
accrued hereunder and any amounts that would be payable under Section 5.05 as
if all of such Requesting Lender’s Loan were being prepaid in full on such date)
and (ii) if such Requesting Lender has requested compensation pursuant to
Section 5.01 or
5.06, such
Proposed Lender’s aggregate requested compensation, if any, pursuant to Section 5.01 or
5.06 with
respect to such Requesting Lender’s Loan is lower than that of the Requesting
Lender. Subject to the provisions of Section 14.07(b),
such Proposed Lender shall be a “Lender” for all purposes
hereunder. Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement
of the Borrower hereunder the agreements of the Borrower contained in Sections 5.01,
5.06, 14.03 and 14.04 (without
duplication of any payments made to such Requesting Lender by the Borrower or
the Proposed Lender) shall survive for the benefit of such Requesting Lender
under this Section 5.07
with respect to the time prior to such replacement.

Plans. No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur

is reasonably expected to occur, could reasonably be expected to result in a
Material Adverse Effect. Each Plan established by a Borrower Party or
the Operating Partnership and, to the knowledge of the Borrower Parties or the

the requirements set forth in Sections 9.02(h) and
9.04(d). There
are no outstanding options to purchase or rights of first refusal to purchase
affecting the Projects.

petition by it under any state or federal bankruptcy or insolvency laws or the

Borrower, the Borrower’s Member/General Partner nor the Operating Partnership
has knowledge of any Person contemplating the filing of any such petition
against the Borrower, the Borrower’s Member/General Partner, the Operating

Borrower, each Project and the Borrower’s use thereof and operations thereat
comply in all material respects with all Applicable Laws. All
material Government Approvals necessary under Applicable Law in connection with
the operation of the Projects as contemplated by the Loan Documents have been
duly obtained, are in full force and effect, are not subject to appeal, are held
in the name of the Borrower (or Borrower’s Member/General Partner for the
benefit of the Borrower) and are free from conditions or requirements compliance

expected, to rescind, terminate, Modify or suspend any such Government
Approval. Except for business licenses and other licenses or permits
that are not specifically applicable to the Projects, the Borrower has no reason

(b) the
commencement (or threatened commencement in writing) of all material legal or

written notice of default from the tenant under any Major Lease, a notice of
such default;
(e) copies of
any material notices or documents pertaining to or related to the Projects or
the Borrower received from any Governmental Authority; and, with respect to

or the vacation of all or a material portion of the premises by the tenant, or a
change in control of the tenant, or an election by the tenant to terminate the

Borrower, would impact the obligation of the tenant thereunder to pay rent or
perform any of its other material obligations for the entire term thereof as
previously disclosed to the Administrative Agent;
(f) notice of
any Taking threatened in writing; or the occurrence of any Casualty Event
resulting in damage or loss in excess of $500,000; and

forth, in reasonable detail, the details of the event or development requiring
such notice and any action taken or proposed to be taken with respect
thereto.
8.03 Existence,
Etc. The Borrower will, and will cause each other Borrower
Party and the Operating Partnership to, preserve and maintain its legal
existence and all material rights, privileges, licenses and franchises necessary
for the maintenance of its existence and the conduct of its
affairs.
8.04 Compliance with Laws;
Adverse Regulatory Changes.
(a) The
Borrower shall comply in all material respects (subject to such more stringent
requirements as may be set forth elsewhere herein) with all Applicable
Laws. The Borrower shall maintain in full force and effect all
required Government Approvals and shall from time to time obtain all Government
Approvals as shall now or hereafter be necessary under Applicable Law in
connection with the operation or maintenance of the Projects and shall comply,
in all material respects, with all such Government Approvals and keep them in
full force and effect. Upon request from time to time, the Borrower
shall promptly furnish a true, correct and complete copy of each such Government
Approval to the Administrative Agent. The Borrower shall, unless
otherwise approved by the Administrative Agent in writing, use its reasonable
efforts to contest any proceedings before any Governmental Authority and to
resist any proposed adverse changes in Applicable Law to the extent that such
proceedings or changes are directed specifically toward any Project or could
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, but only to the extent
that Borrower deems such action to be in the best interests of the affected
Project in the exercise of its business judgment.
(b) Without
limiting the foregoing provisions of clause (a) above as it relates to the
Projects or any portion of the Trillium Project other than the Ground Leased
Property, the provisions of this clause (b) shall apply solely as to the LP
Borrower and its ownership of the Ground Leased Property (and not with respect
to the Trillium Project or any of the other Projects). The LP
Borrower shall comply in all material respects (subject to such more stringent
requirements as may be set forth elsewhere herein) with all Applicable Laws that
are applicable to it or its interest in the Trillium Project (and excluding
those Applicable Laws that specifically and exclusively relate to the Ground
Lessee or the interest of the Ground Lessee under the Ground Lease), and shall
use commercially reasonable efforts to enforce the provisions of the Ground
Lease to cause the Ground Lessee to comply with its obligations under the Ground
Lease to comply with Applicable Laws to the extent required by the Ground Lease
or Applicable Law and within the LP Borrower’s reasonable
control. The LP Borrower shall maintain in full force and effect all
required Government Approvals that are applicable to it and shall comply, in all
material respects, with all such Government Approvals and keep them in full
force and effect. The LP Borrower shall use commercially reasonable
efforts to enforce the provisions of the Ground Lease to cause the Ground Lessee
to comply with its obligations under the Ground Lease to obtain all Government
Approvals as shall now or hereafter be necessary under Applicable Law in
connection with the operation or maintenance of the Ground Leased Property to
the extent required by the Ground Lease or Applicable Law and within the LP
Borrower’s reasonable control. Upon request from time to time, the LP
Borrower shall promptly furnish a true, correct and complete copy of each
Government Approval required to be maintained by the LP Borrower to the
Administrative Agent, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to enforce
the provisions of the Ground Lease to cause the Ground Lessee to comply with its
obligations under the Ground Lease to deliver a copy of each Governmental
Approval necessary under Applicable Law in connection with the operation or
maintenance of the Ground Leased Property to the LP Borrower, and shall
thereafter deliver a true, correct and complete copy thereof to the
Administrative Agent. Subject to the provisions of the Ground Lease,
the LP Borrower shall, unless otherwise approved by the Administrative Agent in
writing or prohibited under the terms of the Ground Lease, use its reasonable
efforts to contest any proceedings before any Governmental Authority and to
resist any proposed adverse changes in Applicable Law to the extent that such
proceedings or changes are directed specifically toward the Ground Leased
Property or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, but
in each case only if and to the extent that the LP Borrower deems such action to
be in the best interests of the Trillium Project in the exercise of its business
judgment. The LP Borrower shall be permitted to permit the Ground
Lessee to contest the applicability of such Applicable Law or Governmental
Approval on the terms set forth in Section 8.04(c) or on
such other terms as may be permitted by the Ground Lease. In the
event that the Ground Lessee breaches any of its obligations under the Ground
Lease that are referenced in this Section in any material respect, the LP
Borrower shall provide the Administrative Agent with notice promptly upon
becoming aware thereof, and, if such breach could reasonably be expected either
to have a Material Adverse Effect on the Trillium Project (determined as if the
Trillium Project were the sole collateral for the Allocated Loan Amount that is
allocated to the Trillium Project) or otherwise to have a Material Adverse
Effect (either, an “LP
Borrower MAE Effect”), the LP Borrower shall (unless the LP Borrower
shall be exercising its rights to contest the applicability of such Applicable
Law or Governmental Approval in accordance with Section 8.05(b))
furnish to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders such security
as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, to ensure that the
failure of the Ground Lessee to comply with such Applicable Law or to maintain
in effect such Governmental Approval shall not have an LP Borrower MAE
Effect.
(c) The
Borrower, at its own expense, may contest by appropriate legal proceedings
promptly initiated and conducted in good faith and with due diligence, the
validity or application of any Applicable Law, and shall provide the
Administrative Agent with notice of any such contest of a material nature, provided
that:
(i) Reserved;
(ii) the
Borrower shall pay any outstanding fines, penalties or other payments under
protest unless such proceeding shall suspend the collection of such
items;
(iii) such
proceeding shall be permitted under and be conducted in accordance with the
applicable provisions of any other instrument governing the contest of such
Applicable Laws to which the Borrower or any such Project is subject and shall
not constitute a default thereunder;
(iv) no part
of or interest in any Project (or the Borrower’s interest therein) will be in
danger of being sold, forfeited, terminated, canceled or lost during the
pendency of the proceeding;
(v) such
proceeding shall not subject the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any
Lender to criminal or civil liability (other than civil liability of the
Borrower as to which adequate security has been provided pursuant to clause (vi)
below);
(vi) unless
paid under protest, the Borrower shall have furnished such security as may be
required in the proceeding, or as may be reasonably requested by the
Administrative Agent, to insure the payment of any such items, together with all
interest and penalties thereon, which shall not be less than 110% of the maximum
liability of the Borrower as reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent;
and
(vii) the
Borrower shall promptly upon final determination thereof pay the amount of such
items, together with all costs, interest and penalties.
8.05 Insurance.

Borrower shall obtain and maintain, or cause to be maintained, for the benefit
of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, insurance for each
Project providing at least the following coverages:

waiver of depreciation; (B) containing an agreed amount endorsement with respect
to the Improvements and personal property at each Project waiving all

hazard area”, flood hazard insurance in an amount equal to the lesser of (1) the

Disaster Protection Act of 1973 or the National Flood Insurance Reform Act of
1994, as each may be amended or such greater amount as the Administrative Agent
shall require; and (z) subject to Sections 8.05(a)(xi)
and (xii),

(ii) commercial
general liability insurance against claims for personal injury, bodily injury,
death or property damage occurring upon, in or about the Project, such insurance

basis; (3) independent contractors; (4) blanket contractual liability for all
legal contracts; and (5) contractual liability covering the indemnities

above for a period commencing at the time of loss for such length of time as it
takes to repair or replace with the exercise of due diligence and dispatch; (C)
containing an extended period of indemnity endorsement which provides that after
the physical loss to the Improvements and personal property has been repaired,
the continued loss of income will be insured until such income either returns to
the same level it was at prior to the loss, or the expiration of twelve (12)
months from the date that the Project is repaired or replaced and operations are
resumed, whichever first occurs, and notwithstanding that the policy may expire
prior to the end of such period; and (D) if there is a separate sublimit for
business income insurance, such sublimit shall be not less than one hundred
percent (100%) of the projected gross income from the Project for a period of
eighteen (18) months. The amount of such business income insurance
shall be determined prior to the date hereof and at least once each year
thereafter based on the Borrower’s reasonable estimate of the gross income from
the Project for the succeeding eighteen (18) month period. All
proceeds payable to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this subsection (iii)
shall be held by the Administrative Agent and shall be applied to debt service
that is due and payable under the Notes with the amount in excess of such debt
service during the period of business interruption held in a Controlled Account
and available for release to the Borrower upon the completion of the restoration
of the Project provided no Major Default or Event of Default then exists; provided, however, that nothing
herein contained shall be deemed to relieve the Borrower of its obligations to
pay the obligations secured by the Loan Documents on the respective dates of
payment provided for in the Notes and the other Loan Documents except to the
extent such amounts are actually paid out of the proceeds of such business
income insurance;

Administrative Agent and the Lenders have accepted the Borrower’s existing
coverages, deductibles and self-insurance limits in effect on the Closing Date
with respect to terrorism and terrorist acts;

singular, the “Policy”) and, to the
extent not specified above, shall be subject to the approval of the

less than fifteen (15) days prior to the expiration dates of the Policies
theretofore furnished to the Administrative Agent, certificates of insurance
evidencing the Policies accompanied by evidence satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent of payment of the premiums then due thereunder (the “Insurance Premiums”),
shall be delivered by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent; provided, however, that no
Event of Default shall result from the Borrower’s failure to deliver or cause to
be delivered such certificates or other evidence unless (i) on or prior to the
expiration date of the applicable Policy, the Administrative Agent shall not
have obtained certificates or other evidence satisfactory to it confirming that
the Policies required hereunder shall have been extended for an additional
period or shall have been replaced for an additional period with replacement
Policies that comply with the requirements set forth in this Section 8.05 and (ii)
on or prior to the fifth (5th)
Business Day after the expiration of such expiring Policy, the Administrative
Agent shall not have received certificates of insurance evidencing the extension
of the existing Policies or replacement Policies for an additional period
accompanied by evidence satisfactory to the Administrative Agent of payment of
the Insurance Premiums then due thereunder.
(c) Each
Policy shall (i) provide that adjustment and settlement of any claim equal to or
in excess of the Insurance Threshold Amount shall be subject to the approval of
the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 10.01(b);
provided that
so long as no Event of Default exists, the Borrower may, upon notice to the
Administrative Agent, settle and adjust any claim with respect to a Casualty
Event in excess of the Insurance Threshold Amount without the prior consent of
the Administrative Agent and the Borrower is hereby authorized to collect the
Insurance Proceeds with respect to any such claim; provided that such
adjustment is carried out in a competent and timely manner; (ii) include
permission by the insurer for the parties to the transaction to waive all rights
of subrogation against each other; (iii) to the extent such provisions are
reasonably obtainable, provide that such insurance shall not be impaired or
invalidated by virtue of (1) any act, failure to act or negligence of, or
violation of declarations, warranties or conditions contained in such policy by,
the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders or any other named insured,
additional insured, or loss payee, except for the willful misconduct of the
Administrative Agent or the Lenders knowingly in violation of the conditions of
such Policy or (2) any foreclosure or other proceeding or notice of sale
relating to the Projects; (iv) be subject to a deductible, if any, not greater
than $10,000 (except as otherwise specifically provided in or permitted by Section 8.05(a)); (v)

respect to any risk insured by such Policy; (vi) include effective waivers by
the insurer of all claims for insurance premiums against any loss
payees, additional insureds and named insureds (other than the Borrower
Parties); (vii) provide that if all or any part of such Policy shall be canceled
or terminated, or shall expire, the insurer will forthwith give notice thereof
to each named insured, additional insured and loss payee and that no
cancellation, termination, expiration, reduction in amount of, or material
change (other than an increase) in, coverage thereof shall be effective until at
least thirty (30) days after receipt by each named insured, additional insured
and loss payee of written notice thereof; and (viii) provide that the
Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any Insurance Premiums thereon or
subject to any assessments thereunder.
(d) If
any such Insurance Proceeds required to be paid to the Administrative Agent are
instead made payable to the Borrower, the Borrower hereby appoints the
Administrative Agent as its attorney-in-fact, irrevocably and coupled with an
interest, to endorse and/or transfer any such payment to the Administrative
Agent (on behalf of the Lenders).
(e) Except as
otherwise provided by the terms of the blanket insurance policies maintained by
the Borrower and/or its Affiliates with respect to the Borrower and the Projects
as of the Closing Date, or comparable blanket policies that may be obtained by
the Borrower and/or its Affiliates after the Closing Date, any blanket insurance
Policy shall specifically allocate to the Projects the amount of coverage from
time to time required hereunder and shall otherwise provide the same protection
as would a separate Policy insuring only the Projects in compliance with the
provisions of Section 8.05(a).
(f) All
Policies of insurance provided for or contemplated by Section 8.05(a)
shall be primary coverage and, except for the Policy referenced in Section 8.05(a)(v),
shall name the Borrower as the insured and the Administrative Agent (on behalf
of the Lenders) and its successors and/or assigns as the additional insured (or
in the case of property insurance, as the “mortgagee”), as its interests may
appear, and in the case of property damage, boiler and machinery, flood,
earthquake and terrorism insurance, shall contain a standard non-contributing
mortgagee endorsement in favor of the Administrative Agent providing that the
loss thereunder shall be payable to the Administrative Agent. The
Borrower shall not procure or permit any of its constituent entities to procure
any other insurance coverage which would be on the same level of payment as the
Policies or would adversely impact in any way the ability of the Administrative
Agent or the Borrower to collect any proceeds under any of the
Policies. All polices must EXACTLY state the following: Eurohypo AG,
New York Branch Its successors and assigns 0000 Xxxxxx xx xxx Xxxxxxxx 00xx Xxxxx
Xxx Xxxx, XX 00000 Attn: Director of Portfolio Operations.
(g) Without
limiting the obligations of the Borrower under the foregoing provisions of this
Section 8.05,
if at any time the Administrative Agent is not in receipt of written evidence
that all insurance required hereunder is in full force and effect, the
Administrative Agent shall have the right, without notice to the Borrower, to
take such action as the Administrative Agent deems necessary to protect its
interest in the Projects, including, without limitation, the obtaining of such
insurance coverage as the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion deems
appropriate and all premiums incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection
with such action or in obtaining such insurance and keeping it in effect shall
be paid by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent upon demand and until paid
shall be secured by the Deed of Trust and shall bear interest at the
Post-Default Rate.
(h) In the
event of foreclosure of the Deed of Trust or other transfer of title to any

insurance coverage required under subsection 8.05(a)(i)
with insurance companies having a general policy and claims paying ability
rating of less than A and a financial class of less than IX provided such

this Section 8.06, the LP Borrower’s obligations hereunder with respect to the
Ground Leased Property shall be to pay all Real Estate Taxes and Other Charges
(but, in the case of Other Charges, only to the extent such Other Charges could

the amount or validity or application in whole or in part of any Real Estate
Taxes and Other Charges, provided
that:
(i) Reserved;
(ii) the
Borrower shall pay the Real Estate Taxes and Other Charges under protest unless

Administrative Agent’s consent shall not be required for tenant improvement work
performed pursuant to the terms and provisions of an Approved Lease which (upon
completion of such work) does not adversely affect any structural component of
any Improvements, any utility or HVAC system contained in any Improvements or
the exterior of any building (excluding signage or other alterations that would
not otherwise require the consent of the Administrative Agent under this Section 8.07(ii) in
the absence of this proviso) constituting a part of any Improvements at any

thereto, and (unless required by the terms of the Ground Lease) the LP Borrower
shall not grant any such consent without the prior consent of the Administrative
Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld for any alterations that
are required by Applicable Law) if such removal, demolition or alteration would
(A) have a Material Adverse Effect or (B) involve a cost in the aggregate for
such alteration and all other alterations involving a single work of improvement
(or related group of improvements) which is anticipated to exceed the lesser of
(1) $5,000,000 or (2) ten percent (10%) of the Appraised Value of the Trillium
Project; provided, however, that the
Administrative Agent’s consent shall not be required for any such removal,
demolition or alteration that (x) does not require the LP Borrower’s consent
under the Ground Lease or (y) pertains to tenant improvement work which (upon
completion of such work) does not adversely affect any structural component of
any Hilton Hotel Improvements, any utility or HVAC system contained in any
Hilton Hotel Improvements or the exterior of any building (excluding signage or
other alterations that would not otherwise require the consent of the
Administrative Agent under this Section 8.07(vi)(2)
in the absence of this proviso) constituting a part of any Hilton Hotel
Improvements;
(iii) complete

the satisfaction of the Administrative Agent within thirty (30) days of the date
of filing); provided, however, without
limiting the foregoing as it relates to the Projects or any portion of the
Trillium Project other than the Ground Leased Property, solely as to the LP
Borrower and the Ground Leased Property (and not any other portion of the
Trillium Project), the LP Borrower’s obligation hereunder shall be to use
commercially reasonable efforts to enforce the provisions of the Ground Lease
that require the Ground Lessee to complete promptly and in a good and
workmanlike manner any Hilton Hotel Improvements which may be hereafter
constructed and promptly to restore in like manner any portion of such Hilton
Hotel Improvements which may be damaged or destroyed thereon from any cause
whatsoever, and to enforce the provisions that require the Ground Lessee to pay
when due all claims for labor performed and material furnished therefor, subject
to the right of the Ground Lessee under any applicable provisions of the Ground
Lease to contest such claims and further subject to the LP Borrower’s right to
contest any such claims (as long as, with respect to any such claim for which a
mechanic’s lien has been filed and that encumbers the LP Borrower’s right, title
or interest in the Trillium Project or the Ground Leased Property, such claims
contested by the LP Borrower have been bonded over to the satisfaction of the
Administrative Agent within thirty (30) days of the date of
filing);

Trillium Project), the LP Borrower’s obligation hereunder shall be not to itself
commit any waste to the Ground Leased Property, and to use commercially
reasonable efforts to enforce any applicable provisions of the Ground Lease and
the LP Borrower’s rights under Applicable Law that prohibit the commission of
waste by the Ground Lessee, and in the event that the Ground Lessee breaches any
of its obligations under the Ground Lease that are referenced in this Section in
any material respect, the LP Borrower shall provide the Administrative Agent
with notice promptly upon becoming aware thereof, and, if such breach could
reasonably be expected to have an LP Borrower MAE Effect, the LP Borrower shall
furnish to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders such security
as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, to ensure that the
failure of the Ground Lessee to comply with such obligation shall not have an LP
Borrower MAE Effect; and
(v) not
remove any item from the Projects without replacing it with a comparable item of
equal quality, value and usefulness, except that the Borrower may sell or
dispose of in the ordinary course of the Borrower’s business any property which
is obsolete.

all at the sole cost and expense of the Borrower. The Borrower, at
its sole cost and expense, shall take or cause to be taken all action required
or requested by the Administrative Agent to maintain and preserve the Liens of
the Security Documents and the priority thereof. The Borrower shall
from time to time execute or cause to be executed any and all further

designated by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, upon reasonable prior
notice, to visit and inspect its properties (subject to the proviso set forth in
Section
8.11(a)), to examine and make extracts from its books and records, and to
discuss its affairs, finances and condition with its officers and independent
accountants, all at such reasonable times (during normal business hours) and as
often as reasonably requested. Without limiting the foregoing as it
relates to the Projects or any portion of the Trillium Project other than the
Ground Leased Property, solely with respect to the LP Borrower and the Ground
Leased Property (and not any other portion of the Trillium Project), this Section 8.10 (and any
similar provision of this Agreement or other Loan Documents granting any rights
of entry to, or inspection of, the Ground Leased Property) shall be subject to
the provisions of the Ground Lease and the rights of the Ground Lessee and other
occupants thereof.

the Trillium Project other than the Ground Leased Property, with respect to the
Ground Leased Property, the LP Borrower’s obligation hereunder shall be not to
Release or cause a Release of Hazardous Substances in, on, under or from the
Ground Leased Property, and the LP Borrower shall use commercially reasonable
efforts to enforce any applicable provisions of the Ground Lease and the LP
Borrower’s rights under Applicable Law that prohibit any such Release by the
Ground Lessee;
(iii) the
Borrower shall not knowingly permit Hazardous Substances in, on, or under any
Project, except those that are in compliance with all Environmental Laws and of

Leased Property, to the extent permitted by the Ground Lease and within the LP
Borrower’s reasonable control) undertake to supervise and inspect activities
occurring on the Projects as may be reasonably prudent to comply with the
foregoing obligation; provided, however, that,
without limiting the foregoing as it relates to the Projects or any portion of
the Trillium Project other than the Ground Leased Property, solely with respect
to the LP Borrower and the Ground Leased Property, the LP Borrower’s obligation
hereunder shall be to use commercially reasonable efforts to enforce the
provisions of the Ground Lease and the LP Borrower’s rights under Applicable Law
that relate to the use of Hazardous Substances by the Ground
Lessee;

any Project, and shall operate, maintain, repair and replace any such
underground storage tank so disclosed in compliance with all Applicable Laws;
provided, however, that, solely
with respect to the Ground Leased Property (and to the extent within the LP
Borrower’s reasonable control) the LP Borrower’s obligation shall be to use
commercially reasonable efforts to enforce any applicable provisions of the
Ground Lease and the LP Borrower’s rights under Applicable Law to cause any such
underground storage tank located on the Ground Leased Property to be operated,
maintained, repaired and replaced in compliance with Applicable
Law;
(v) Reserved;
(vi) the
Borrower shall keep each Project free and clear of all Liens and other
encumbrances imposed pursuant to any Environmental Law, whether due to any act
or omission of the Borrower or any other Person (collectively, “Environmental
Liens”); provided, however, that , solely with respect to the Ground
Leased Property, the LP Borrower’s obligation hereunder shall be to use
commercially reasonable efforts to enforce any applicable provisions of the
Ground Lease that prohibit any Environmental Liens due to any act or omission of
the Ground Lessee or its subtenants or licensees;
(vii) notwithstanding
clause (iii)
above, the Borrower shall not, or knowingly permit any other Person to,
install any asbestos or asbestos containing materials on any Project, and shall
upon and following the Closing Date implement, comply with and maintain in
effect an operations and maintenance program with respect to any existing
asbestos or asbestos containing materials located at any Project; provided, however, that, solely
with respect to the Ground Leased Property, the LP Borrower’s obligation
hereunder shall be upon and following the Closing Date to use commercially
reasonable efforts to enforce any applicable provisions of the Ground Lease or
its rights under Applicable Law that require the Ground Lessee to implement,
comply with and maintain in effect an operations and maintenance program with
respect to any existing asbestos or asbestos containing materials located at the

Substances present on, under or emanating from any Project, or migrating onto or
into any Project, in accordance with this Agreement and applicable Environmental
Laws subject to the right to contest such Remediation in accordance with Section 7(a) of the
Environmental Indemnity (and subject, in the case of the Ground Leased Property,
to any rights of the Ground Lessee under the Ground Lease); and
(ix) the
Borrower shall provide (or with respect to the Ground Leased Property, the LP
Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts to enforce the provisions of
the Ground Lease so as to provide) the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and
their representatives (A) with access, upon prior reasonable notice, at
reasonable times (during normal business hours) to all or any portion of any
Project for purposes of inspection; provided that such
inspections shall not unreasonably interfere with the operation of such Project
or the tenants or occupants thereof, and shall be subject to the rights of
tenants under their Leases (and the rights of the Ground Lessee under the Ground
Lease and the rights of subtenants or other occupants under their subleases),
and the Borrower shall cooperate with the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and
their representatives in connection with such inspections, including, but not
limited to, providing (or with respect to the Ground Leased Property, using

any Project, the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders;
(iii) the
commencement or completion of any Remediation at any Project; and

construction work to be performed by the tenant thereunder so that such work is
performed in a manner which will cause a minimum amount of disruption to the
tenants then in occupancy at any such Project and in a manner so as not to cause
a default by the Borrower under any other tenants’ Leases or provide the basis
for any abatement or set off by any other tenant of the rent payable under any
such Lease, or a claim by any other tenant for breach of warranty of
habitability or similar claim, and the LP Borrower shall diligently enforce the
terms of the Ground Lease with respect to any construction work to be performed
by the Ground Lessee thereunder, and (g) prior to entering into any new Lease
with a retail tenant provide a copy of the Borrower’s standard form of retail
lease to the Administrative Agent for review and approval, which approval shall

the Administrative Agent as of the Closing Date, Borrower shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to obtain estoppel certificates in form and substance
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent from tenants covering at least

as possible following the Closing Date. Without limiting the
foregoing, At the Administrative Agent’s request, at any time while an Event of
Default exists and otherwise from time to time upon the joint agreement of the
Borrower and the Administrative Agent, with each acting reasonably, the Borrower
shall request and use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain and furnish to
the Administrative Agent written estoppels in form and substance satisfactory to
the Administrative Agent, executed by tenants under Leases in any Project and
confirming the term, rent, and other provisions and matters relating to the
Leases. Borrower further hereby agrees that, while an Event of
Default exists, the Administrative Agent may exercise all rights of the Borrower
under the Leases to request the delivery of estoppels from the tenants
thereunder.
8.15 Subordination,
Non-Disturbance and Attornment Agreements. The Borrower shall
use commercially reasonable efforts to provide to the Administrative Agent SNDA
Agreements executed by each tenant under a Major Lease prior to the Closing
Date; provided,
however, that
in addition to the obligations set forth in Section 9.09(c), if
the Borrower does not obtain all such SNDA Agreements by the Closing Date, the
Borrower shall continue to use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such
SNDA Agreements after the Closing Date.
8.16 Operating Plan and
Budget.
(a) Commencing
with the budget for the calendar year 2008 and then annually thereafter, the
Borrower shall submit to the Administrative Agent an annual budget for each
Project (each an “Annual Budget”), in
form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent setting
forth in detail budgeted monthly Operating Income and monthly Operating Expenses
for each such Project (which may be in the form of the calendar year 2008 budget
for each Project provided to the Administrative Agent prior to the Closing
Date). The Annual Budget for each year shall be delivered together
with the annual financial statement for the preceding year pursuant to Section
8.01(a). During any Low DSCR Trigger Period but not otherwise,
the Administrative Agent shall have the right to approve such Annual Budget
(including, without limitation, the Annual Budget for the portions of the
calendar year in which such Low DSCR Trigger Period occurs following after the
commencement of such Low DSCR Trigger Period). Within fifty (50) days
following the end of any calendar quarter which comprises a Low DSCR Trigger
Period, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent for its approval
the Annual Budget (in the format as described above) for the calendar year in
which such Low DSCR Trigger Period occurs (together with a reconciliation to
that Annual Budget of actual revenues and expenses year-to-date), and shall
thereafter deliver to Administrative Agent for its approval the Annual Budget
(in the format as described above) proposed by the Borrower for the succeeding
calendar year, by no later than the November 15 preceding such calendar
year. The Administrative Agent shall not unreasonably withhold its
approval of any Annual Budget as required hereunder; provided, however, that if
during any Low DSCR Trigger Period the actual monthly Operating Expenses exceed
budgeted Operating Expenses in any month during any period by more than ten
percent (10%), the Administrative Agent shall have the right to require the
Borrower to submit for its approval a revised Annual Budget for review and
approval by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion. If the
Administrative Agent objects to any proposed Annual Budget for which approval is
required hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Borrower of such
objections within fifteen (15) Business Days after receipt thereof (and deliver
to the Borrower a reasonably detailed description of such objections), and the
Borrower shall within five (5) days after receipt of notice of any such
objections revise such Annual Budget and resubmit the same to the Administrative
Agent (such procedure to be repeated until such time as the Administrative Agent
shall approve such Annual Budget). Each such Annual Budget submitted
to and (to the extent that such approval is required hereunder) approved by the
Administrative Agent in accordance with terms hereof, as well as the budget for
the current calendar year approved by the Administrative Agent on the Closing
Date, shall hereinafter be referred to as an “Approved Annual
Budget”. Until such time that the Administrative Agent has
approved a proposed Annual Budget for which its approval is required hereunder,
the most recently Approved Annual Budget shall apply for purposes of this Section 8.16; provided that such
Approved Annual Budget shall be adjusted to reflect actual increases in real
estate taxes, insurance premiums, utilities expenses and other fixed costs and
shall otherwise be adjusted to reflect any change during the preceding year in
the Consumer Price Index. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders acknowledge that the Borrower is not
required to operate under the terms of an Approved Annual Budget during any
period other than a Low DSCR Trigger Period.
(b) During
any Low DSCR Trigger Period, the Borrower may at any time propose an amendment
to an Approved Annual Budget for any Project for the remainder of the calendar
year in which such Low DSCR Trigger Period has occurred, and, when approved as
provided below, such amended Approved Annual Budget for such Project shall be
deemed to be and shall be effective as the Approved Annual Budget for such
Project for such calendar year. Prior to making any expenditures not
reflected in any current Approved Annual Budget in excess of ten percent (10%)
of the budgeted amount therefor, the Borrower shall propose an amendment to such
Approved Annual Budget to the Administrative Agent for its approval in
accordance with the standards for the granting or withholding of consent to
Annual Budgets set forth in Section
8.16(a). The Administrative Agent shall have fifteen (15)
Business Days after receipt of any proposed amendment to such Approved Annual
Budget to approve or disapprove such proposed amendment.
8.17 Operating
Expenses. The Borrower shall pay all known costs and expenses
of operating, maintaining, leasing and otherwise owning the Projects (excluding
those that are the responsibility of the Ground Lessee under the Ground Lease)
on a current basis and before the same become delinquent (subject however to the
other provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents), including all
interest, principal (when due) and other sums required to be paid under this
Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the Hedge Agreement, before utilizing
any revenues derived or to be derived from or in respect of the Projects for any
other purpose, including distributions or other payments to the Borrower’s
Member/General Partner.
8.18 Margin
Regulations. No part of the proceeds of the Loans will be used
for the purpose of purchasing or acquiring any “margin stock” within the meaning
of Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or for
any other purpose which would be inconsistent with such Regulation T, U, X or
any other Regulations of such Board of Governors, or for any purposes prohibited
by Legal Requirements.
8.19 Hedge Agreements.
(a) The
Borrower shall obtain, or cause to be obtained by an Other Swap Pledgor, (i) no
later than thirty (30) days after the Closing Date and will at all times
thereafter maintain, or cause to be maintained by an Other Swap Pledgor, in full
force and effect, one or more Hedge Agreements in the aggregate notional amount
equal to at least one hundred percent (100%) of the Initial Advance, and (ii) in
the event the Borrower elects to obtain the Subsequent Funding Advance pursuant
to Section 2.11
of this Agreement, no later than the Expiration Date, and will at all times
thereafter maintain, or cause to be maintained by an Other Swap Pledgor, in full
force and effect, one or more Hedge Agreements in the aggregate notional amount
equal to an amount, which when combined with the Hedge Agreement(s) obtained in
satisfaction of the foregoing clause (i) is at
least seventy-five percent (75%) of the Outstanding Principal Amount of the
Loans plus the
Unused Commitments at such time (in either case, the “Aggregate Notional
Amount”), in each case, which Hedge Agreement(s) shall be approved by the
Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion with (A) Eurohypo or its
Affiliates or (B) one or more other banks or insurance companies as
counterparties (each a “Third-Party
Counterparty”), which is effective to cause the All-in-Rate as to the
applicable Aggregate Notional Amount commencing no later than the date that is
thirty (30) days after the Closing Date or no later than the Expiration Date, as
the case may be, (or, if such day is not a Business Day, the first Business Day
thereafter) to be not in excess of the rate per annum through the Hedging
Termination Date that is necessary to satisfy a Debt Service Coverage Ratio for
all the Projects of at least 1.25:1.00 as of the date such Hedge Agreement is
entered into. Upon the Closing Date or the Expiration Date, as
applicable, the Borrower shall deliver, or cause to be delivered by an Other
Swap Pledgor, a Hedge Agreement Pledge, substantially in the form of Exhibit G-1 attached
hereto, together with, within thirty (30) days after the Closing Date or in the
case of the Hedge Agreement(s) obtained pursuant to clause (ii) above, on or
prior to the Expiration Date, the applicable bid package, confirmation and other
documentation for such Hedge Agreement (including, without limitation, a
certificate from an Authorized Officer of the Borrower certifying that a Hedge
Agreement has been entered into on the terms set forth in the confirmation) as
may be reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent evidencing compliance
with the Borrower’s obligations under the provisions of this Section 8.19, and
within ten (10) days after the delivery of each such Hedge Agreement (or, in the
case of the Hedge Agreement obtained pursuant to clause (i) above, within the
thirty (30) day period referred to above) shall deliver the applicable
counterparty acknowledgment. Any Hedge Agreement shall require
monthly fixed rate and floating rate payments and be based on a LIBO Rate of
interest having, at the Borrower’s option, successive Interest Periods (an
“Interest Rate Hedge
Period”) of one, two, three, six or twelve months (or, for the purpose of
satisfying the requirements of Section 2.10, for any
period after the Hedging Termination Date, at Borrower’s option, one or more
Interest Periods of six months) or such other Interest Periods satisfactory to
the Administrative Agent in its reasonable
discretion. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
this Section
8.19, the Borrower or any Other Swap Pledgor shall be entitled to enter
into one or more Hedge Agreements in excess of the Aggregate Notional Amount, up
to the total amount of the Commitments or providing interest rate protection for
periods that extend beyond the Hedging Termination Date (each such agreement,
but only to the extent that it, after giving effect to all other Hedge
Agreements maintained pursuant to this Section 8.19(a),
relates to a notional amount in excess of the Aggregate Notional Amount or
provides interest rate protection for periods that extend beyond the Hedging
Termination Date, is referred to herein as an “Excess Hedge
Agreement”) on terms acceptable to the Borrower or such Other Swap
Pledgor; provided, however, that
Borrower shall deliver, or cause to be delivered by an Other Swap Pledgor, upon
the Administrative Agent’s request in accordance with the time requirements set
forth in this Section 8.19(a),
a Hedge Agreement Pledge with respect to each Excess Hedge Agreement,
substantially in the form of Exhibit G-2 attached
hereto, together with the counterparty’s acknowledgment and other instruments
provided to be delivered thereunder.
(b) The
Borrower’s obligations under any Hedge Agreement shall not be secured by the
Deeds of Trust and shall not be secured by any Lien on or in all or any portion
of the collateral under the Security Documents, any direct or indirect interest
in the Borrower or any other Property (other than as permitted pursuant to Section
9.02(i)).
(c) Any Hedge
Agreement with a Third-Party Counterparty is herein called a “Third-Party Hedge
Agreement.” With respect to each Third-Party Hedge Agreement
maintained with respect to the Aggregate Notional Amount and each Excess Hedge
Agreement pledged to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section
8.19(a): (i) the Third-Party Counterparty providing such
Third-Party Hedge Agreement must have a long term credit rating no lower than
“A” from S&P or “A2” from Xxxxx’x at the time of entry into such Third-Party
Hedge Agreement; provided, however, if there is
a difference in the then current S&P rating and the Xxxxx’x rating, the
lesser rating shall be applicable; (ii) the form and substance thereof must
be satisfactory to the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion and in
all respects and (iii) each counterparty thereunder shall have delivered to the
Administrative Agent a counterparty’s acknowledgment in the form attached to the
Hedge Agreement Pledge applicable thereto (or in such other form as may be
acceptable to the Administrative Agent in its reasonable
discretion).
(d) Reserved.
(e) If the
Borrower fails for any reason or cause whatsoever to secure and maintain, or
cause to be secured and maintained by an Other Swap Pledgor, a Hedge Agreement
with respect to the Aggregate Notional Amount as and when required to do so
hereunder, such failure shall constitute an Event of Default and the
Administrative Agent shall be entitled to exercise all rights and remedies
available to it under this Agreement (for the benefit of the Lenders) and the
other Loan Documents or otherwise, including the right (but not the obligation)
of the Administrative Agent to secure or otherwise enter into one or more Hedge
Agreements with respect to the Aggregate Notional Amount with a Lender for and
on behalf of the Borrower without such action constituting a cure of such Event
of Default and without waiving the Administrative Agent’s or the Lenders’ rights
arising out of or in connection with such Event of Default. It is
understood that Borrower’s failure to provide any Hedge Agreement required by
Section 2.10
shall not be an Event of Default or entitle the Administrative Agent to secure
or otherwise enter into one or more Hedge Agreements with respect to the
Aggregate Notional Amount, but shall instead have the consequences provided in
Section 2.10;
provided, however, that upon
entering into a Hedge Agreement pursuant to Section 2.10,
Borrower shall continue to maintain such Hedge Agreement in accordance with, and
otherwise as required by the applicable provisions of Sections 2.10 and
8.19 of this
Agreement. If the Administrative Agent shall enter into a Hedge
Agreement with a Lender in accordance with its right to do so pursuant to this
subsection (e),
then (i) the terms and provisions of any such Hedge Agreement, including the
term thereof, shall be determined by the Administrative Agent in its sole
discretion (except that the maximum notional amount of all such Hedge Agreements
shall not exceed the Aggregate Notional Amount) and (ii) the Borrower shall pay
all of the Administrative Agent’s costs and expenses in connection therewith,
including any fees charged by the applicable counterparty, attorneys’ fees and
disbursements, and the cost of additional title insurance in an amount
determined by the Administrative Agent to be necessary to protect the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders from potential funding losses under any
Hedge Agreement provided by a Lender.
(f) Reserved.
(g) If the
Borrower or Other Swap Pledgor is entitled to receive a payment upon the
termination of any Hedge Agreement required by this Section 8.19, or,
while any Event of Default exists, under any Excess Hedge Agreement pledged to
the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 8.19(a) (it
being understood that any termination payment paid with respect to any Excess
Hedge Agreement shall be delivered to the Borrower or Other Swap Pledgor at any
time while an Event of Default does not exist) such payment shall be delivered
to the Administrative Agent and applied by the Administrative Agent to any
amounts due to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders under the Loan Documents
evidencing the Loans (it being understood that any such payment applied to the
principal of the Loans shall be deemed a prepayment of such principal, and shall
be accompanied by any applicable prepayment premium resulting from such
prepayment, or such termination payment shall be applied in part to pay such
principal and in part to pay such prepayment premium) in such order and priority
as the Administrative Agent shall determine in its sole
discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (i) at any time
upon or following any principal prepayment made pursuant to Section 2.06 the
Outstanding Principal Amount is reduced and the Borrower or Other Swap Pledgor
elects at its option to terminate or partially to terminate, or to reduce the
notional amount of, any Hedge Agreement (or is required under the terms of such
Hedge Agreement to do so) in a notional amount (in either such case) not
exceeding, respectively, the amount by which the aggregate notional amount in
effect under the Hedge Agreements then maintained pursuant hereto (other than
Excess Hedge Agreements unless pledged pursuant to the Hedge Agreement Pledge
substantially in the form of Exhibit G-1 attached
hereto) exceeds the Aggregate Notional Amount then required to be hedged
pursuant hereto or (ii) the Borrower or Other Swap Pledgor elects, in full
compliance with the terms of each Hedge Agreement Pledge, to deliver to the
Administrative Agent, in substitution for a Hedge Agreement, a substitute Hedge
Agreement, then the Borrower or Other Swap Pledgor shall have the right to do
so, and if the Borrower or Other Swap Pledgor is entitled (in the case of either
(i) or (ii) above) to receive a termination payment from the counterparty in
connection therewith, then, provided that no Event of Default then exists, the
Borrower or Other Swap Pledgor shall have the right to receive and retain such
termination payment free and clear of the Lien of the Hedge Agreement Pledge,
provided, that, after giving effect to any such termination or substitution, the
Borrower remains in compliance with its obligations under Section 8.19(a) with
respect to the maintenance of Hedge Agreements with respect to the Aggregate
Notional Amount then required to be hedged pursuant hereto and has complied (or
caused the Other Swap Pledgor to comply) with the applicable conditions
precedent set forth in Section 6(e) of the
Hedge Agreement Pledge and the certification obligations with respect thereto
set forth in the applicable Hedge Agreement Pledge and the Acknowledgment of
Security Interest delivered pursuant thereto. The Borrower or Other
Swap Pledgor shall have the right to terminate, reduce the notional amount of or
modify any Excess Hedge Agreement and to receive any payments from the
counterparty thereunder resulting therefrom, provided that if an Event of
Default exists and such Excess Hedge Agreement has been pledged to the
Administrative Agent, then the rights and obligations of the Borrower (or Other
Swap Pledgor) and the Administrative Agent with respect thereto shall be the
same as their respective rights and obligations with respect to Hedge Agreements
maintained with respect to the Aggregate Notional Amount.
(h) Upon
securing any Hedge Agreement required under this Section 8.19, or any
Excess Hedge Agreement pledged to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 8.19(a) the
Borrower agrees that the economic and other benefits of such Hedge Agreement and
all of the other rights of the Borrower or Other Swap Pledgor thereunder shall
be collaterally assigned to the Administrative Agent as additional security for
the Loans for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, pursuant to a Hedge Agreement
Pledge. All Hedge Agreement Pledges shall be accompanied by
(i) Uniform Commercial Code financing statements, in duplicate, with
respect to such pledges and (ii) within ten (10) days after delivery of the
applicable Hedge Agreement Pledge (or within such longer period as provided in
Section 8.19(a)
above), a counterparty’s acknowledgment in the form attached to the Hedge
Agreement Pledge applicable thereto (or in such other form as may be acceptable
to the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion) from each counterparty
under each Hedge Agreement.
(i) Notwithstanding
the provisions of Section 8.19(a),
following the delivery of any notice of full or partial prepayment delivered by
the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.06(a) or
any notice of a proposed release of a Project pursuant to Section 2.06(c),
Borrower’s obligation to maintain, or cause to be maintained, any Hedge
Agreement required under Section 8.19(a) shall
be suspended with respect to the full Aggregate Notional Amount (in the case of
a notice of full prepayment) or the portion of the Aggregate Notional Amount
equal to the amount to be prepaid in the case of a partial prepayment or
pursuant to Section
2.09(a)(ii) in connection with the release of a Project (in the case of a
notice of partial prepayment or notice of the release of a Project), and
Borrower or the Other Swap Pledgor may terminate or reduce the notional amount
of any Hedge Agreement theretofore entered into with respect to such suspended
portion of the Aggregate Notional Amount; provided, however, that if such notice
of prepayment or release is subsequently revoked, or if such prepayment or
release does not occur on or prior to the date identified in such notice of
prepayment or release (as such date may be postponed in accordance with the
provisions of this Agreement), then the suspension of such obligation shall
terminate, and Borrower shall be obligated to enter into and thereafter
maintain, or to cause an Other Swap Pledgor to enter into and thereafter
maintain, one or more Hedge Agreements at an agreed upon strike rate and
otherwise in full compliance with Section 8.19(a) by
not later than the end of a cumulative period during which the Hedge Agreements
otherwise required under Section 8.19(a) are
not being maintained (with respect to all such notices of prepayment or release
in the aggregate) which shall not exceed (60) days in the
aggregate.
(j) If any
Hedge Agreement delivered by the Borrower or Other Swap Pledgor to the
Administrative Agent shall, by its terms, expire during any period in which
Borrower remains obligated to maintain a Hedge Agreement in effect pursuant to
Section
8.19(a), and as a result thereof the Borrower would not be in compliance
with its obligations under Section 8.19(a) with
respect to the maintenance of Hedge Agreements covering the Aggregate Notional
Amount, then, subject to the provisions of Section 8.19(i), the
Borrower shall deliver, or cause an Other Swap Pledgor to deliver, to the
Administrative Agent a replacement Hedge Agreement at least ten (10) Business
Days prior to the expiration date of the then current Hedge Agreement (so
as to remain in compliance with its obligations under Section 8.19(a) with
respect to the maintenance of Hedge Agreements) which replacement Hedge
Agreement shall be acceptable to the Administrative Agent in its reasonable
discretion and otherwise satisfy the requirements of this Section
8.19.
8.20 Reserved.
8.21 Required
Work. The Borrower shall cause the work described on Schedule 8.21
attached hereto to be completed on or before the applicable dates set forth on
said schedule. Such work shall be completed in a good and workmanlike
manner, lien-free and in accordance with all Applicable Laws. The
Administrative Agent shall have the right to inspect such work and the
reasonable costs of such inspection shall be paid by the Borrower. In
addition, the Borrower acknowledges receipt of the Environmental Reports and the
Property Condition Reports and agrees to address in its prudent business
judgment the recommendations contained in such reports.

Hedge Agreement or Excess Hedge Agreement entered into by the Borrower or Other
Swap Pledgor in compliance with Section 8.19 hereof

Pledge. Without the prior written consent of the
Administrative Agent and (subject to the last paragraph of this Section 9.03)
the Required Lenders:
(a) None of
the Borrower, nor any Borrower Party, nor any Principal shall (w) directly
or indirectly Transfer any interest in any Project or any part thereof
(including any direct or indirect interest in any partnership, membership or
other ownership interest or other Equity Interest in the Borrower, the
Borrower’s Member/General Partner or the Borrower’s Manager); (x) directly
or indirectly grant any Lien on any direct or indirect interest in any Project
or any part thereof, whether voluntarily or involuntarily; (y) enter into
any arrangement granting any direct or indirect right or power to direct the
operations, decisions and affairs of the Borrower, the Borrower’s Member/General
Partner or the Borrower’s Manager, whether through the ability to exercise
voting power, by contract or otherwise; or (z) except as described in
clause (e) of the definition of “Permitted Liens,” enter into any easement or
other agreement granting rights in or restricting the use or development of any
Project except for easements and other agreements which, in the reasonable
opinion of the Administrative Agent, have no Material Adverse Effect; provided, however, that, the
foregoing restrictions shall not apply with respect to:
(i) any
Transfer of direct or indirect ownership interests in the Borrower’s
Member/General Partner, or a successor to the Borrower’s Member/General Partner
(other than the ownership interests that are covered by Section 9.03(a)(ii)),
unless following such transfer, the REIT shall not directly or indirectly own
fifty-one percent (51%) or more of the ownership interests in the Borrower or
shall not directly or indirectly control the Borrower, or a Change in Control
shall result from such Transfer;
(ii) the
Transfer of direct or indirect ownership interests in, or the admission or
withdrawal of any partner, member or shareholder to or from, the Borrower’s
Manager or any general partner, manager or managing member of any successor to
the Borrower or the Borrower’s Member/General Partner referred to in Section
9.03(a)(iii);
(iii) the
conveyance of all of the Projects (or all of the Projects owned by a Borrower)
to a Qualified Successor Entity which assumes all of the obligations
of the Borrower under the Loan Documents and the Contribution
Agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and in
recordable form; provided, however, that such
Qualified Successor Entity and the general partner, manager or managing member
of such Qualified Successor Entity, after giving effect to such Transfer, is in
compliance with all of the covenants of the Borrower or applicable to the
Borrower’s Manager or any Borrower Party (as applicable) contained in the Loan
Documents except as otherwise provided in the definition of “Borrower’s Manager”
(with all references herein to “Borrower” to mean such Qualified Successor
Entity, and all references herein to “Borrower’s Manager” to mean
(except as otherwise provided in the definition of “Borrower’s Manager”) any
general partner, manager or managing member of the Qualified Successor Entity;
no Default or Event of Default is then existing or would result therefrom; and
upon the transfer of such Projects to such Qualified Successor Entity, such
Qualified Successor Entity, its controlling entity and the general partner,
manager or managing member of such Qualified Successor Entity are in compliance
in all material respects with all of the representations and warranties of the
Borrower or applicable to the Borrower’s Manager (whether directly or
as a Borrower Party) (as applicable) contained herein and in the other Loan
Documents (after giving effect to the modifications reflecting the identity of
the transferee resulting from such transfer) except as otherwise provided in the
definition of “Borrower’s Manager” (with all references herein to “Borrower” to
mean such Qualified Successor Entity, and all references herein to “Borrower’s
Manager” to mean (except as otherwise provided in the definition of “Borrower’s
Manager”) any general partner, manager or managing member of the Qualified
Successor Entity); and provided, further, that from
and after such Transfer, in the case of a Transfer to a Qualified Successor
Entity consisting of a REIT Subsidiary, such Projects may be managed by the REIT
or any property management company owned or controlled directly or indirectly by
the REIT. Prior to such Transfer, the Administrative Agent shall have
received and approved (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld) the
Organizational Documents of such Qualified Successor Entity and the general
partner, manager or managing member of such Qualified Successor Entity (except
that, in the case of a Qualified Successor Entity which is a REIT Subsidiary,
there shall be no approval rights over the Organizational Documents of such
general partner, manager or managing member if it is the REIT or the Operating
Partnership ), together with such financial information relating to such
Qualified Successor Entity as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request,
and concurrently with such Transfer, the Administrative Agent shall have
received such endorsements to the Title Policies insuring ownership of the
applicable Projects by such Qualified Successor Entity and the continued
priority of the Liens of the applicable Deeds of Trust after giving effect to
the delivery by such entity of the assumption agreement referred to above
(subject only to Permitted Title Exceptions), in form and substance satisfactory
to the Administrative Agent, and such confirmation as the Administrative Agent
may require that the Hedge Agreements required under Section 8.19(a)
remain in full force and effect, in compliance with Section 8.19 hereof,
as to the Loans as assumed by such Qualified Successor Entity. In
connection with any such Transfer, the assumption agreement to be entered into
by the Borrower and the Qualified Successor Entity (and such other parties
deemed appropriate by the Administrative Agent) shall include such modifications
to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as the Administrative Agent may
reasonably require, including, without limitation, such modifications to the
covenants and other provisions that are contained herein and that relate to the
Borrower or Borrower’s Manager, as shall be deemed necessary by the
Administrative Agent to allocate to the Qualified Successor Entity and its
general partner or manager responsibility for the performance of the covenants
of, and satisfaction of the other provisions set forth herein that relate to,
the Borrower or Borrower’s Manager, and, if and only if the Guarantor Documents
do not remain in effect after such Transfer, of such limited indemnity
agreements and guaranties as shall be deemed necessary by the Administrative
Agent to obtain recourse liability from the general partner or manager of the
Qualified Successor Entity (if such general partner or manager is not the
Guarantor) on terms consistent with the obligations of the Guarantor under the
Guarantor Documents immediately upon the Closing Date. Upon
compliance with the foregoing requirements in connection with such Transfer, the
original Borrower, shall be released from its obligations under the Loan
Documents arising from and after such Transfer, but such release shall not limit
the obligations of such Borrower to comply with any requirements applicable to
it (if any) in other capacities (including, without limitation, in capacities
such as the general partner, managing member or manager of such Qualified
Successor Entity). As used herein, “Qualified Successor Entity” shall
mean either (I) an entity (other than the REIT, the Operating Partnership or any
Subsidiary of such REIT), majority-owned, directly or indirectly, by (A) the
Borrower and/or (B) the Borrower’s Member/General Partner, or (II) a REIT
Subsidiary (other than the Operating Partnership); and, provided further, however, that in the
case of clauses (I) and (II) above, such Qualified Successor Entity shall, from
the date of its formation, have been in compliance with the provisions of Sections 9.02, 9.04 and 9.05 hereof as if
each reference therein to “Borrower” were to mean and refer to such Qualified
Successor Entity;
(iv) entering
into Approved Leases or the granting of Liens expressly permitted by the Loan
Documents;
(v) [reserved];
(vi) any
Transfers which are permitted under Section
14.31;
(vii) any
Transfers expressly permitted by the Loan Documents; and
(viii) any of
the following so long as no Change of Control shall result
therefrom: (A) any Transfer or issuance (whether through public
offerings, private placements or other means) of shares or Equity Interests in
the REIT or the Operating Partnership; (B) any conversion, into securities
of the REIT, of partnership units or other Equity Interests of the Operating
Partnership; (C) any issuance or Transfer of any Equity Interests in any REIT
Subsidiary owning any direct or indirect Equity Interests in any Borrower Party,
so long as following such issuance or Transfer the REIT shall directly or
indirectly own fifty-one percent (51%) or more of the ownership interests in the
Borrower and shall directly or indirectly control the Borrower; and/or (C) any
merger, consolidation, dissolution, liquidation, reorganization, sale, lease or
other transaction involving any Person other than the Borrower so long as the
REIT (or, as applicable, a REIT Subsidiary) is the surviving entity and the REIT
thereafter directly or indirectly owns fifty-one percent (51%) or more of the
ownership interests in the Borrower and directly or indirectly controls the
Borrower.
(b) [reserved];
(c) [reserved];
and
(d) As used
in Sections
9.03(a)(i), (a)(iii) and (a)(viii), “control”
(including, with its correlative meanings, “controlled by” and “under common
control with”) shall mean possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to
direct or cause the direction of the management or policies (whether through
ownership of securities or partnership or other ownership interests, by contract
or otherwise) of such Person.
Notwithstanding
the foregoing provisions of this Section 9.03,
any Transfer of a direct or indirect ownership interest in the Borrower, the
Borrower’s Member/General Partner, the Borrower’s Manager or any Qualified
Successor Entity or any general partner, manager or managing member of any
Qualified Successor Entity shall be further subject to the requirement that,
after giving effect to such Transfer, the Borrower, the Borrower’s
Member/General Partner, the Borrower’s Manager, any Qualified Successor Entity
and its controlling entity and general partner or manager shall be in compliance
with all applicable laws applicable to such Persons and relating to such
Transfer, including the USA Patriot Act and regulations issued pursuant thereto
and “know your customer” laws, rules, regulations and orders. In
addition, any such Transfer (except for any Transfer of publicly-traded stocks
in the REIT or any Transfers that are permitted by Section
9.03(a)(viii)) shall be further subject to (w) the Borrower providing
prior written notice to Administrative Agent of any such Transfer, (x) no
Default or Event of Default then existing, (y) the proposed transferee being a
corporation, partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, joint-stock
company, trust or individual approved in writing by each Lender subject to a
Limiting Regulation in its discretion, and (z) payment to the Administrative
Agent on behalf of the Lenders of all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by
the Administrative Agent or any Lenders in connection with such
Transfer. Each Lender at the time subject to a Limiting Regulation
shall, within ten (10) Business Days after receiving the Borrower’s notice of a
proposed Transfer subject to this Section 9.03,
furnish to the Borrower a certificate (which shall be conclusive absent manifest
error) stating that it is subject to a Limiting Regulation, whereupon such
Lender shall have the approval right contained in clause (y)
above. Each Lender which fails to furnish such a certificate to the
Borrower during such ten (10) Business Day period shall be automatically and
conclusively deemed not to be subject to a Limiting Regulation with respect to
such Transfer. If any Lender subject to a Limiting Regulation fails
to approve a proposed transferee under clause (y) above (any such Lender being
herein called a “Rejecting Lender”),
the Borrower, upon three (3) Business Days’ notice, may (A) notwithstanding the
terms of Sections 2.06,
prepay such Rejecting Lender’s outstanding Loans or (B) require that such
Rejecting Lender transfer all of its right, title and interest under this
Agreement and such Rejecting Lender’s Note to any Eligible Assignee or Proposed
Lender selected by the Borrower that is reasonably satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent if such Eligible Lender or Proposed Lender (x) agrees to
assume all of the obligations of such Rejecting Lender hereunder, and to
purchase all of such Rejecting Lender’s Loans hereunder for consideration equal
to the aggregate outstanding principal amount of such Rejecting Lender’s Loans,
together with interest thereon to the date of such purchase (to the extent not
paid by the Borrower), and satisfactory arrangements are made for payment to
such Rejecting Lender of all other amounts accrued and payable hereunder to such
Rejecting Lender as of the date of such transfer (including any fees accrued
hereunder and any amounts that would be payable under Section 2.06 as
if all such Rejecting Lender’s Loans were prepaid in full on such date) and (y)
approves the proposed transferee. Subject to the provisions of Section 14.07
such Eligible Assignee or Proposed Lender shall be a “Lender” for all purposes
hereunder. Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement
of the Borrower hereunder, the agreements of the Borrower contained in Section 5.05
shall survive for the benefit of such Rejecting Lender with respect to the time
period prior to such replacement.
9.04 Indebtedness. Except

for “carve-outs” (or Guarantees guarantying the debtor’s liability with respect
to “carve-outs”) for fraud, misrepresentation, misappropriation and other
exceptions-from-nonrecourse customary in the real estate finance industry and

in Sections 9.04(e)
above.

Administrative Agent. Within five (5) Business Days after the
Administrative Agent shall have received such revised Lease Approval Package,
the Administrative Agent shall either consent or refuse to consent to such Lease

commercially reasonable changes thereto as may be requested by such
tenant). The Administrative Agent’s execution thereof shall be
conditioned upon the prior execution thereof by both the tenant and the
Borrower.

Agent, subject to the limitations set forth herein with respect to the
Administrative Agent’s approval of any new manager for any Project, terminate a

ARTICLE
X
INSURANCE
AND CONDEMNATION PROCEEDS
10.01 Casualty
Events.
(a) If a
Casualty Event shall occur as to any Project which results in damage in excess
of $500,000, the Borrower shall give prompt notice of such damage to the
Administrative Agent and shall, subject to the provisions of Section 10.03,
promptly commence and diligently prosecute in accordance with Section 8.07 and this
Article X the
completion of the repair and restoration of such Project in accordance with
Applicable Law to, as nearly as reasonably possible, the condition such Project
was in immediately prior to such Casualty Event, with such alterations as may be
reasonably approved by the Administrative Agent (a “Restoration”) for any
Restoration for which such approval is otherwise required pursuant to Section
10.03(e) or alteration for which such approval is otherwise required
pursuant to Section
8.07. The Borrower shall pay all costs of such
Restoration whether or not such costs are covered by Insurance
Proceeds. The Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to
make proof of loss if not made promptly by the Borrower. All Net
Proceeds with respect to a Significant Casualty Event, shall, at the
Administrative Agent’s option, be applied to the payment of the Obligations
unless required to be made available to the Borrower for Restoration hereunder,
in which case such Net Proceeds shall, subject to the provisions of this
Agreement, be made available to the Borrower to pay the costs incurred in
connection with the Restoration. All Net Proceeds with respect to a
Casualty Event that is not a Significant Casualty Event shall, subject to the
provisions of this Agreement, be made available to the Borrower to pay the costs
incurred in connection with the Restoration of the affected
Project.
(b) If
Restoration of any Project following a Casualty Event is reasonably expected to
cost not more than the lesser of (i) $5,000,000 and (ii) ten percent (10%) of
the Appraised Value of such Project (the “Insurance Threshold
Amount”), provided no Event of Default exists, the Borrower may, upon
notice to the Administrative Agent, settle and adjust any claim with respect to
such Casualty Event without the prior consent of the Administrative Agent and
the Borrower is hereby authorized to collect the Insurance Proceeds with respect
to any such claim; provided such adjustment is carried out in a manner
consistent with good business practice. In the event that Restoration
of any Project is reasonably expected to cost an amount equal to or in excess of
the Insurance Threshold Amount (a “Significant Casualty
Event”), provided no Event of Default exists, the Borrower may, with the
prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld), settle and adjust any claim of the Borrower and agree
with the insurer(s) on the amount to be paid on the loss, and the Insurance
Proceeds shall be due and payable solely to the Administrative Agent (on behalf
of the Lenders); notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall
retain the right to participate (not to the exclusion of the Borrower) in any
such insurance settlement at any time. If an Event of Default exists,
with respect to any Casualty Event, the Administrative Agent, in its sole
discretion, may settle and adjust any claim without the consent of the Borrower
and agree with the insurer(s) on the amount to be paid on the loss, and the
Insurance Proceeds shall be due and payable solely to the Administrative Agent
(on behalf of the Lenders) and deposited in a Controlled Account and disbursed
in accordance herewith. If the Borrower or any party other than the
Administrative Agent is a payee on any check representing Insurance Proceeds
with respect to a Significant Casualty Event, the Borrower shall immediately
endorse, and cause all such third parties to endorse, such check payable to the
order of the Administrative Agent. The Borrower hereby irrevocably
appoints the Administrative Agent as its attorney-in-fact, coupled with an
interest, to endorse such check payable to the order of the Administrative
Agent. The reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the
Administrative Agent in the settlement, adjustment and collection of the
Insurance Proceeds shall become part of the Obligations and shall be reimbursed
by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent upon demand to the extent not
already deducted by the Administrative Agent from such Insurance Proceeds in
determining Net Proceeds.
10.02 Condemnation
Awards.
(a) The
Borrower shall promptly give the Administrative Agent notice of any actual
Taking or any Taking that has been threatened in writing and shall deliver to
the Administrative Agent copies of any and all papers served in connection with
such actual or threatened Taking. The Administrative Agent may
participate in any Taking proceedings (not to the exclusion of the Borrower),
and the Borrower shall from time to time deliver to the Administrative Agent all
instruments requested by it to permit such participation. The
Borrower shall, at its expense, diligently prosecute any such proceedings, and
shall consult with the Administrative Agent, its attorneys and experts, and
cooperate with them in the carrying on or defense of any such
proceedings. The Administrative Agent may participate in any such
proceedings (not to the exclusion of the Borrower) and may be represented
therein by counsel of the Administrative Agent’s selection at the Borrower’s
cost and expense. Without the Administrative Agent’s prior consent,
the Borrower (i) shall not agree to any Condemnation Award and (ii) shall not
take any action or fail to take any action which would cause the Condemnation
Award to be determined; provided, however, that if no
Event of Default exists, and upon prior written notice to the Administrative
Agent, the Borrower shall have the right to compromise and collect or receive
any Condemnation Award that does not exceed the lesser of (a) $5,000,000 and (b)
ten percent (10%) of the Appraised Value of such Project, provided that such
condemnation does not result in any material adverse effect upon the Project
affected thereby. In the event of such Taking, the Condemnation Award
payable is hereby assigned to and (except as provided in the preceding sentence)
shall be paid to the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Lenders) and, except
as expressly set forth in Section 10.03 hereof,
shall be applied to the repayment of the Obligations. If any Project
or any portion thereof is subject to a Taking, the Borrower shall promptly
commence and diligently prosecute the Restoration of such Project in accordance
with this Article
X and otherwise comply with the provisions of Section 10.03. If
such Project is sold, through foreclosure or otherwise, prior to the receipt by
the Administrative Agent of the Condemnation Award, the Administrative Agent and
the Lenders shall have the right, whether or not a deficiency judgment on the
Notes shall have been sought, recovered or denied, to receive the Condemnation
Award, or a portion thereof sufficient to pay the Obligations.
10.03 Restoration.
(a) If each
of the Net Proceeds and the cost of completing the Restoration shall be not more
than the Insurance Threshold Amount, the Net Proceeds will be disbursed by the
Administrative Agent to the Borrower upon receipt; provided that no
Major Default or Event of Default then exists and, except where the Restoration
has already been completed by the Borrower and the Borrower seeks reimbursement
for costs of the Restoration, the Borrower delivers to the Administrative Agent
a written undertaking to expeditiously commence and to satisfactorily complete
with due diligence the Restoration in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement; and the Borrower thereafter commences and diligently proceeds with
the Restoration thereof in compliance with Section 8.07 and this
Article
X.
(b) If either
the Net Proceeds or the costs of completing the Restoration is equal to or
greater than the Insurance Threshold Amount, the Administrative Agent shall make
the Net Proceeds available for the Restoration in accordance with the provisions
of this Section
10.03. The term “Net Proceeds” for
purposes of this Article X shall
mean: (i) the net amount of all Insurance Proceeds received by the
Administrative Agent pursuant to the Policies as a result of such damage or
destruction, after deduction of the Administrative Agent’s reasonable
out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable
counsel fees), if any, in collecting same, or (ii) the net amount of the
Condemnation Award, after deduction of the Administrative Agent’s reasonable
out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable
counsel fees), if any, in collecting same, whichever the case may
be.
(c) The Net
Proceeds shall be made available to the Borrower for Restoration; provided that each of
the following conditions is met:
(i) no Major
Default or Event of Default exists;
(ii) (A) in
the event the Net Proceeds are Insurance Proceeds, less than twenty-five percent
(25%) of the total (gross) floor area of the Improvements on such Project has
been damaged, destroyed or rendered unusable as a result of such Casualty Event
or (B) in the event the Net Proceeds are Condemnation Awards, less than ten
percent (10%) of the land constituting such Project is taken, and such land is
located along the perimeter or periphery of such Project, and no portion of the
Improvements (other than sidewalks, paved areas and decorative non-structural
elements of the Improvements) is located on such land;
(iii) Reserved;
(iv) the Debt
Service Coverage Ratio projected (with Operating Income and Operating Expenses
also being projected rather than being based on the previous calendar quarter)
by the Administrative Agent for a period of one year after the Administrative
Agent’s estimated date for the stabilization of the affected Project following
completion of the Restoration will be equal to or greater than 1.35-to-1.00
based on Leases with respect to which the tenants do not have the right to or
have waived any right to terminate their respective Leases;
(v) subject
to the applicable provisions of Section 10.03(l), the
Borrower shall commence the Restoration as soon as reasonably practicable (but
in no event later than ninety (90) days after such Casualty Event or Taking, as
the case may be, occurs) and shall diligently pursue the same to completion to
the reasonable satisfaction of the Administrative Agent;
(vi) the
Administrative Agent shall be satisfied that any operating deficits, including
all scheduled payments of principal and interest under the Notes, which will be
incurred with respect to the subject Project as a result of the occurrence of
any such Casualty Event or Taking, as the case may be, will be covered out of
(A) the Net Proceeds, (B) the proceeds of Business Interruption Insurance, if
applicable, or (C) other funds of the Borrower;
(vii) the
Administrative Agent shall be satisfied that the Restoration will be completed
on or before the earliest to occur of (A) six (6) months prior to the Stated
Maturity Date, (B) such time as may be required under Applicable Law in order to
repair and restore the subject Project to the condition it was in immediately
prior to such Casualty Event or to as nearly as possible the condition it was in
immediately prior to such Taking, as the case may be, and (C) six (6) months
prior to the expiration of the Business Interruption Insurance unless the
Borrower delivers to the Administrative Agent such additional security to the
Administrative Agent in an amount reasonably determined by the Administrative
Agent which additional security shall consist of cash or a letter of credit
reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent;
(viii) the
subject Project and the use thereof after the Restoration will be in substantial
compliance with and permitted under all Applicable Laws;
(ix) the
Borrower shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Administrative Agent
satisfactory evidence that after Restoration, the subject Project would be at
least as valuable as immediately before the Casualty Event or Taking
occurred;
(x) such
Casualty Event or Taking, as the case may be, does not result in the permanent
loss of any current access to the subject Project;
(xi) the
Borrower shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Administrative Agent a
signed detailed budget approved in writing by the Borrower’s architect or
engineer stating the entire cost of completing the Restoration, which budget
shall be reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and any architect or
engineer the Administrative Agent may engage (at the Borrower’s expense);
and
(xii) the Net
Proceeds together with any cash or cash equivalent deposited by the Borrower
with the Administrative Agent are sufficient in the Administrative Agent’s
judgment to cover the cost of the Restoration.
(d) Except
for proceeds of a Casualty Event or Taking received and retained by the Borrower
in compliance with the provisions of this Article X, the Net
Proceeds shall be held by the Administrative Agent in a Controlled Account,
until disbursed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 10.03, and
shall constitute additional security for the Obligations. Upon
receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent that all
the conditions precedent to such advance, including those set forth in subsection (c) above,
have been satisfied, the Net Proceeds shall be disbursed by the Administrative
Agent to, or as directed by, the Borrower from time to time during the course of
the Restoration in substantially the same manner and subject to similar
conditions as if such advances were being made in connection with a construction
loan, such manner of disbursement and conditions to be determined by the
Administrative Agent, including the Administrative Agent’s receipt of (i) advice
from the Restoration Consultant (who shall be employed by the Administrative
Agent at the Borrower’s sole expense) that the work completed or materials
installed conform to said budget and plans, as approved by the Administrative
Agent, (ii) evidence that all materials installed and work and labor performed
to the date of the applicable advance (except to the extent that they are to be
paid for out of the requested disbursement) in connection with the Restoration
have been paid for in full, including the receipt of waivers of lien,
contractor’s certificates, surveys, receipted bills, releases, title policy
endorsements and such other evidences of cost, payment and performance
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, and (iii) evidence that there exist no
notices of pendency, stop orders, mechanic’s or materialman’s liens or notices
of intention to file same, or any other Liens of any nature whatsoever on the
subject Project which have not either been fully bonded to the reasonable
satisfaction of the Administrative Agent and discharged of record or in the
alternative fully insured to the reasonable satisfaction of the Administrative
Agent under the Title Policy.
(e) All plans
and specifications required in connection with any Restoration resulting in Net
Proceeds in excess of the Insurance Threshold Amount shall be subject to prior
review and approval (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld) in all
respects by the Administrative Agent and by an independent consulting engineer
selected by the Administrative Agent (the “Restoration
Consultant”). All plans and specifications required in
connection with any Restoration resulting in Net Proceeds not in excess of the
Insurance Threshold Amount shall be provided to the Administrative Agent in the
ordinary course of business. The Administrative Agent shall have the
use of the plans and specifications and all permits, licenses and approvals
required or obtained in connection with any Restoration. With respect
to any Restoration resulting in Net Proceeds in excess of the Insurance
Threshold Amount (whether resulting from a Casualty Event or a Taking), the
identity of the contractors, subcontractors and materialmen engaged in the
Restoration, as well as all contracts having a cost in excess of $100,000, shall
be subject to the prior review and approval (such approval not to be
unreasonably withheld) of the Administrative Agent and the Restoration
Consultant. All costs and expenses incurred by the Administrative
Agent in connection with making the Net Proceeds available for the Restoration
including reasonable counsel fees and disbursements and the Restoration
Consultant’s fees, shall be paid by the Borrower. The Borrower shall
also obtain, at its sole cost and expense, all necessary Government Approvals as
and when required in connection with such Restoration and provide copies thereof
to the Administrative Agent and the Restoration Consultant.
(f) In no
event shall the Administrative Agent be obligated to make disbursements of the
Net Proceeds in excess of an amount equal to the costs actually incurred from
time to time for work in place as part of the Restoration, as certified by the
Restoration Consultant, minus the Restoration
Retainage. The term “Restoration
Retainage” shall mean the greater of (i) an amount equal to ten percent
(10%) of the hard costs actually incurred for work in place as part of the
Restoration, as certified by the Restoration Consultant and (ii) the amount
actually held back by the Borrower from contractors, subcontractors and
materialmen engaged in the Restoration. The Restoration Retainage
shall not be released until the Restoration Consultant certifies to the
Administrative Agent that the Restoration has been substantially completed in
accordance with the provisions of this Section 10.03,
subject to punch-list items and other non-material items of work and that all
approvals necessary for the re-occupancy and use of the subject Project have
been obtained from all appropriate Governmental Authorities, and the
Administrative Agent receives evidence reasonably satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent that the costs of the Restoration have been paid in full or
will be paid in full out of the Restoration Retainage; provided, however, that the
Administrative Agent will release the portion of the Restoration Retainage being
held with respect to any contractor, subcontractor or materialman engaged in the
Restoration as of the date upon which the Restoration Consultant certifies to
the Administrative Agent that such contractor, subcontractor or materialman has
satisfactorily completed all work and has supplied all materials in accordance
with its contract, and the Administrative Agent receives lien waivers and
evidence of payment in full of all sums due to such contractor, subcontractor or
materialman as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent or by the
Title Company issuing the Title Policy, and the Administrative Agent receives an
endorsement to the Title Policy insuring the continued priority of the lien of
the Deed of Trust and evidence of payment of any premium payable for such
endorsement. If required by the Administrative Agent, the release of
any such portion of the Restoration Retainage shall be approved by the surety
company, if any, which has issued a payment or performance bond with respect to
such contractor, subcontractor or materialman.
(g) The
Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to make disbursements of the Net
Proceeds more frequently than once per month.
(h) If at any
time the Net Proceeds or the undisbursed balance thereof shall not, in the
reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent in consultation with the
Restoration Consultant, be sufficient to pay in full the balance of the costs
which are estimated by the Restoration Consultant to be incurred in connection
with the completion of the Restoration, the Borrower shall deposit the
deficiency (the “Net
Proceeds Deficiency”) with the Administrative Agent within ten (10)
Business Days of the Administrative Agent’s request and before any further
disbursement of the Net Proceeds shall be made. The Net Proceeds
Deficiency shall be held in a Controlled Account and shall be disbursed for
costs actually incurred in connection with the Restoration on the same
conditions applicable to the disbursement of the Net Proceeds, and, until so
disbursed, shall constitute additional security for the
Obligations.
(i) After the
Restoration Consultant certifies to the Administrative Agent that a Restoration
has been substantially completed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 10.03, and
the receipt by the Administrative Agent of evidence satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent that all costs incurred in connection with the Restoration
have been paid in full, the excess, if any, of the Net Proceeds and the
remaining balance, if any, of the Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited in a
Controlled Account shall be remitted to the Borrower, provided that no
Event of Default shall exist.
(j) All Net
Proceeds not required (i) to be made available for the Restoration or (ii) to be
returned to the Borrower as excess Net Proceeds pursuant to subsection (i) above
may (A) be retained and applied by the Administrative Agent toward the payment
of the Obligations, whether or not then due and payable, in such order, priority
and proportions as the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion shall deem
proper (but without premium or penalty) or (B) at the sole discretion of
the Administrative Agent, be paid, either in whole or in part, to the Borrower
for such purposes and upon such conditions as the Administrative Agent shall
designate. In the event the Net Proceeds are applied to the
Obligations and all of the Obligations have been performed or are discharged by
the application of less than all of the Net Proceeds, then any remaining Net
Proceeds will be paid over to the Borrower or any other party legally entitled
thereto.
(k) Notwithstanding
any Casualty Event or Taking, the Borrower shall continue to pay the Obligations
in the manner provided in the Notes, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents
and the Outstanding Principal Amount shall not be reduced unless and until (i)
any Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Award shall have been actually received
by the Administrative Agent, (ii) the Administrative Agent shall have deducted
its reasonable expenses of collecting such proceeds and (iii) the Administrative
Agent shall have applied any portion of the balance thereof to the repayment of
the Outstanding Principal Amount in accordance with Section 10.03(j);
provided, however, that in the
event there is a Significant Casualty Event or Taking of a Project any Unused
Commitments remaining allocable to such Project shall be reduced in proportion
to the amount of the Project taken or destroyed, as determined by the
Administrative Agent, and provided, further, that, during
the period of Restoration of a Project in accordance with this Section 10.03, the
rights of the Borrower under Section 2.11 to
obtain a Subsequent Funding Advance with respect to such Project shall be
suspended until such time as the Restoration has been completed in accordance
with the provisions of this Section
10.03. The Lenders shall not be limited to the interest paid
on any Condemnation Award but shall continue to be entitled to receive interest
at the rate or rates provided in the Notes and this Agreement if such interest
is then due hereunder.
(l) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Article X or Section 8.07, if
pursuant to the provisions of this Article X the Net
Proceeds are required to be made available to the Borrower for Restoration of
the damage caused by a Casualty Event or any Taking, the Borrower’s obligation
to commence or thereafter to proceed with such Restoration shall be conditioned
upon the Borrower’s receipt of the Net Proceeds attributable to such Casualty
Event or Taking, respectively; provided, however, that nothing
contained in this sentence (or any other provision of this Article X) shall (i)
defer, limit or excuse in any respect the Borrower’s obligation to commence or
proceed with the Restoration of any Project: (A) if the Borrower does not
diligently pursue the collection of such Net Proceeds; (B) where the relevant
Casualty Event is not a Significant Casualty Event or the Taking involves a
claim of not more than the lesser of $5,000,000 or ten percent (10%) of the
Appraised Value of the affected Project; (C) in the case of a Casualty Event, to
the extent that the costs of such Restoration are included within any applicable
deductible or self-insurance retention, or exceed the applicable limits of
insurance, under any insurance policy maintained hereunder; (D) in the case of a
Casualty Event, if the Borrower is, at the time of such Casualty Event, in
default in its obligation to maintain the insurance policies required under
Section 8.05 in
any respect which would reduce the amount of Net Proceeds available to the
Borrower on account of such Casualty Event below the amount which would have
been available had the Borrower not been in default of such obligation, then to
the extent of such reduction; or (E) to the extent that the Net Proceeds
available to the Borrower on account of such Casualty Event or Taking are
reasonably anticipated to be reduced as a result of any defense to coverage or
other defense available to the insurer or condemning authority, whether as a
result of any act or omission of the Borrower or otherwise (provided that the
undisputed portion of such Net Proceeds shall have been paid by the insurer or
condemning authority and made available to the Borrower); (ii) defer, limit or
excuse in any respect the Borrower’s obligation to undertake such prudent
measures (subject in all cases to any applicable provisions in Section 8.07) as may
be necessary to keep any Project, following any Casualty Event or Taking, safe,
secure and protected and as may be appropriate to avoid further deterioration or
damage; or (iii) defer, limit or excuse any obligation of the Borrower under
this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (other than the obligation to
commence and diligently prosecute the Restoration of such damage).

CASH TRAP
ACCOUNT
11.01 Low DSCR Trigger
Event. Upon the occurrence of a Low DSCR Trigger Event and on
each day that the required monthly report is due under Section 8.01(e) and
continuing for each month thereafter during any Low DSCR Trigger Period, the
Borrower shall cause all Excess Cash from the Projects to be paid each month
directly to the Administrative Agent for deposit into a Cash Trap Account
established for the Borrower as additional collateral for its
Obligations.
(a) Establishment and
Maintenance of the Cash Trap Account.
(i) The Cash
Trap Account (A) shall be a separate and identifiable account from all other
funds held by the Depository Bank and (B) shall contain only funds required to
be deposited pursuant to this Section
11.01. Any interest which may accrue on the amounts on deposit
in a Cash Trap Account shall be added to and shall become part of the balance of
the Cash Trap Account. The Borrower shall enter into with the
Administrative Agent and the applicable Depository Bank a Cash Trap Account
Security Agreement (with such changes thereto as may be required by the
Depository Bank and satisfactory to the Administrative Agent) which shall govern
the Cash Trap Account established for it and the rights, duties and obligations
of each party to such Cash Trap Account Security Agreement.
(ii) The Cash
Trap Account Security Agreement shall provide that (A) the Cash Trap Account
shall be established in the name of the Administrative Agent, (B) the Cash Trap
Account shall be subject to the sole dominion, control and discretion of the
Administrative Agent, and (C) neither the Borrower nor any other Person,
including, without limitation, any Person claiming on behalf of or through the
Borrower, shall have any right or authority, whether express or implied, to make
use of or withdraw, or cause the use or withdrawal of, any proceeds from the
Cash Trap Account or any of the other proceeds deposited in the Cash Trap
Account, except as expressly provided in this Agreement or in the Cash Trap
Account Security Agreement.
(b) Deposits to, Disbursements
and Release from the Cash Trap Account. All deposits to and
disbursements of all or any portion of the deposits to the Cash Trap Account
shall be in accordance with this Agreement and the Cash Trap Account Security
Agreement. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay any and all fees charged
by Depository Bank in connection with the maintenance of the Cash Trap Account
and the performance of its duties. During any Low DSCR Trigger
Period, provided that no Event of Default exists at the time of any request by
the Borrower for a disbursement from the Cash Trap Account, the Administrative
Agent will direct the Depository Bank to transfer amounts credited to the Cash
Trap Account to the Borrower’s Account to pay or reimburse the Borrower for (i)
Real Estate Taxes or Insurance Premiums, (ii) capital expenditures incurred
pursuant to an Approved Annual Budget (such capital expenditures, “Approved Capital
Expenditures”), (iii) actual costs of tenant improvements and/or leasing
commissions pursuant to an Approved Lease and set forth in an Approved Annual
Budget (such expenditures, “Approved Leasing
Expenditures”), or (iv) capital expenditures which have been approved by
the Administrative Agent in accordance with subsection (c)(iv)
below or leasing expenditures incurred pursuant to an Approved Lease, in either
case which are not set forth in an Approved Annual Budget (such expenditures,
“Extraordinary Capital
or Leasing Expenditures”), in accordance with the terms and conditions
set forth below in subsection
(c). Provided no Default or Event of Default then exists, any
funds held in the Cash Trap Account shall be released to the Borrower for the
account of the Borrower upon the occurrence of a Low DSCR Release Event and, in
such event the Borrower shall no longer be required to cause the deposit of the
subsequent Excess Cash into the Cash Trap Account unless a Low DSCR Trigger
Event occurs with respect to any future calendar quarter.
(c) Conditions to Disbursements
from Cash Trap Account. Each disbursement from a Cash Trap
Account is subject to the satisfaction of each of the following
conditions:
(i) Disbursements
shall be utilized solely for Real Estate Taxes, Insurance Premiums, Approved
Capital Expenditures, Approved Leasing Expenditures or Extraordinary Capital or
Leasing Expenditures and shall be in an amount no greater than the actual cost
of such Real Estate Taxes or Insurance Premiums, Approved Capital Expenditures,
Approved Leasing Expenditures or Extraordinary Capital or Leasing Expenditures
to the extent not theretofore paid from Operating Income;
(ii) Disbursements
for Approved Capital Expenditures, Approved Leasing Expenditures and
Extraordinary Capital or Leasing Expenditures shall not be made more frequently
than monthly, and each disbursement (if any) shall be in an amount not less than
$25,000.00 (unless the disbursement represents the final disbursement for a
particular Approved Capital Expenditure or Approved Leasing
Expenditure);
(iii) Not
less than ten (10) days prior to the requested funding date for a disbursement,
the Administrative Agent shall have received a written request for such
disbursement executed by an Authorized Officer on behalf of the Borrower, which
request shall specify the date on which the Borrower requests the disbursement
to be made and the Person(s) or account(s) to whom such disbursement should be
made (such duly completed request is referred to herein as a “Disbursement
Request”);
(iv) Not
less than ten (10) days prior to each disbursement for Approved Capital
Expenditures, Approved Leasing Expenditures or Extraordinary Capital or Leasing
Expenditures, the Administrative Agent shall have received, reviewed and
approved (A) a certificate executed by the Borrower, or, if such Person was
engaged for such work, the Borrower’s architect or engineer, as applicable,
certifying that, to the knowledge of such Person, the work for which such
disbursement is being requested has been completed to the percentage of
completion specified in the Disbursement Request substantially in accordance
with the applicable plans and specifications therefor and in a good and
workmanlike manner; (B) sworn statements and conditional lien waivers from all
contractors, subcontractors and materialmen with respect to such work; (C) sworn
statements and final lien waivers from all contractors and subcontractors and
materialmen with respect to work theretofore completed and for which a
disbursement was made to the Borrower in a prior month; (D) copies of paid
invoices for prior disbursements and open invoices for requested disbursements,
and an all bills paid affidavit from the Borrower; (E) with respect to the final
payment for a work of improvement, certificates of occupancy (or similar
documentation), as required by Applicable Law, relating to the work for which
such disbursement is being made; and (F) such other supporting documentation as
may be reasonably required by the Administrative Agent, all in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative
Agent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in lieu of complying with the
requirements in clauses (A) through (F) above with respect to any requested
disbursement for Approved Capital Expenditures, Approved Leasing Expenditures or
Extraordinary Capital or Leasing Expenditures which consists of leasing
commissions or sums due pursuant to any contract or subcontract providing for an
aggregate contract sum of not more than $50,000, the Borrower may, not less than
ten (10) days prior to the requested funding date for any disbursement on
account thereof, deliver to the Administrative Agent, together with (or as part
of) its Disbursement Request, a certificate executed by an Authorized Officer on
behalf of the Borrower certifying that such sums so requested are due and
payable and are Approved Capital Expenditures, Approved Leasing Expenditures or
Extraordinary Capital or Leasing Expenditures which have been incurred in
compliance with this Agreement and containing copies of the relevant invoices,
contracts or other back-up documentation to confirm that such sums are then
owing; and
(v) Based
on the most recent reconciliation report delivered by the Borrower pursuant to
Section
8.01(e)(iii) prior to the delivery of such Disbursement Request (or, if
the most recent such report has not been delivered pursuant to such section or
article, based on such other information as the Administrative Agent shall
determine in its reasonable discretion), the results from the operations of the
Projects for the month and year-to-date covered by such reconciliation report
shall be equal to or better than the results contemplated by the Approved Annual
Budget for such month and year-to-date, except for Extraordinary Capital or
Leasing Expenditures or other expenses or items approved by the Administrative
Agent.

of default shall occur under any of the applicable documents evidencing or
securing such Guaranteed Line of Credit and such event of default shall be
continuing following the expiration of applicable notice and cure periods
thereunder; or any event specified in any of the applicable documents evidencing
or securing such Guaranteed Line of Credit shall occur and the effect of such

this Agreement are secured, in compliance with Section 9.02(k) of
this Agreement, exclusively by Liens on one or more Excluded Projects or
other real estate, and the obligations under such Guarantee are non-recourse to
the Borrower and its Subsidiaries (except for “carve-outs” for the Borrower’s or

expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect;
(o) The
Borrower uses, or permits the use of, funds from the Security Accounts for any purpose
other than the purpose for which such funds were disbursed from the Security
Accounts; or
(p) Except as
permitted by Section 8.19(i),
the failure of Borrower to maintain, or cause to be maintained, Hedge Agreements
with respect to the Aggregate Notional Amount in accordance with Section 8.19; or
the occurrence of any default by or termination event as to the Borrower or
Other Swap Pledgor under any Hedge Agreement maintained with respect to the
Aggregate Notional Amount which is not cured within the applicable notice and
grace or cure periods provided therein; or
(q) Reserved;
(r) Any of
the Borrower Parties shall default under any of the other terms, covenants or
conditions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document not set forth above in
this Section
12.01 and such default shall continue for thirty (30) days after notice
from the Administrative Agent to the Borrower; provided, however, that if (i)
such default is susceptible of cure but the Administrative Agent reasonably
determines that such non-monetary default cannot be reasonably cured within such
thirty (30) day period, (ii) the Administrative Agent determines, in its sole
discretion, that such default does not create a material risk of sale or
forfeiture of, or substantial impairment in value to, any material portion of
the Projects, and (iii) the Borrower has provided the Administrative Agent
with security reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent against any
interruption of payment or impairment of collateral that is reasonably likely to
result from such continuing failure, then, so long as the relevant Borrower
Party shall have commenced to cure such default within such thirty (30) day
period and thereafter diligently and expeditiously proceeds to cure the same,
such thirty (30) day period shall be extended for such time as is reasonably
necessary for the relevant Borrower Party in the exercise of due diligence to
cure such default, but in no event shall such period exceed ninety (90) days
after the original notice from the Administrative Agent or extend beyond the
Maturity Date; or
(s) Reserved.
12.02 Remedies. Upon
the occurrence of an Event of Default and at any time thereafter during the
existence of such event, the Administrative Agent may (subject to, and in
accordance with, the provisions of Section 13.03) and,
upon request of the Required Lenders shall, by written notice to the Borrower,
pursue any one or more of the following remedies, concurrently or successively,
it being the intent hereof that none of such remedies shall be to the exclusion
of any other:
(a) In the
case of an Event of Default other than one referred to in clause (e)
or (f) of
Section 12.01
with respect to any Bankruptcy Party, terminate the Commitments and/or declare
the Outstanding Principal Amount of the Loans, and the accrued interest on the
Loans and all other amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder (including any
amounts payable under Section 5.05) and
under the Notes and the Obligations of the Borrower under the other Loan
Documents to be forthwith due and payable and, if the Administrative Agent or an
Affiliate is a counterparty to a Hedge Agreement, then the Administrative Agent
may designate a default or similar event under such Hedge Agreement whereupon
such amounts shall be immediately due and payable without presentment, demand,
protest or other formalities of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly
waived by the Borrower. In the case of the occurrence of an Event of
Default referred to in clause (e)
or (f) of
Section 12.01
with respect to a Bankruptcy Party, the Commitments shall automatically be
terminated and the Outstanding Principal Amount of the Loans, and the accrued
interest on, the Loans and all other amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder
(including any amounts payable under Section 5.05)
and under the Notes and the Obligations of the Borrower under the other Loan
Documents shall automatically become immediately due and payable without
presentment, demand, protest or other formalities of any kind, all of which are
hereby expressly waived by the Borrower;
(b) If the
Borrower shall fail, refuse or neglect to make any payment or perform any
Obligations under the Loan Documents, then, while any Event of Default exists
and without notice to or demand upon the Borrower and without waiving or
releasing any other right, remedy or recourse the Administrative Agent may have
because of such Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be
obligated to) make such payment or perform such Obligation for the account of
and at the expense of the Borrower, and shall have the right to enter upon the
Projects for such purpose and to take all such action thereon and with respect
to the Projects as it may deem necessary or appropriate. If the
Administrative Agent shall elect to pay any sum due with respect to the
Projects, the Administrative Agent may do so in reliance on any xxxx, statement
or assessment procured from the appropriate Governmental Authority or other
issuer thereof without inquiring into the accuracy or validity
thereof. Similarly, in making any payments to protect the security
intended to be created by the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not
be bound to inquire into the validity of any apparent or threatened adverse
title, Lien, encumbrance, claim or charge before making an advance for the
purpose of preventing or removing the same. Additionally, if any
Hazardous Substance affects or threatens to affect any of the Projects, the
Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) give such notices and
take such actions as it deems necessary or advisable in order to xxxxx the
discharge of or remove any Hazardous Substance; and/or
(c) Exercise
or pursue any other remedy or cause of action permitted under this Agreement,
any or all of the Security Documents or any other Loan Document, or conferred
upon the Administrative Agent and the Lenders by operation of law.
ARTICLE
XIII
THE
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT
13.01 Appointment, Powers and
Immunities. Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints and
authorizes the Administrative Agent to act as its agent hereunder and under the
other Loan Documents with such powers as are specifically delegated to the
Administrative Agent by the terms of this Agreement and of the other Loan
Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental
thereto. The Administrative Agent (which term as used in this
sentence and in Section 13.05
and the first sentence of Section 13.06
shall include reference to its Affiliates and its own and its Affiliates’
officers, directors, employees and agents):
(a) shall
have no duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this
Agreement and in the other Loan Documents, and shall not by reason of this
Agreement or any other Loan Document be a fiduciary or trustee for any Lender
except to the extent that the Administrative Agent acts as an agent with respect
to the receipt or payment of funds, nor shall the Administrative Agent have any
fiduciary duty to the Borrower nor shall any Lender have any fiduciary duty to
the Borrower or any other Lender;
(b) shall not
be responsible to the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or
warranties contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, or in any
certificate or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by any
of them under, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for the value,
validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this
Agreement, any Note or any other Loan Document or any other document referred to
or provided for herein or therein or for any failure by the Borrower or any
other Person to perform any of its obligations hereunder or
thereunder;
(c) shall not
be responsible for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it hereunder or
under any other Loan Document or under any other document or instrument referred
to or provided for herein or therein or in connection herewith or therewith,
except for its own gross negligence, bad faith or willful
misconduct;
(d) shall
not, except to the extent expressly instructed by the Required Lenders with
respect to collateral security under the Security Documents, be required to
initiate or conduct any litigation or collection proceedings hereunder or under
any other Loan Document; and
(e) shall not
be required to take any action which is contrary to this Agreement or any other
Loan Document or Applicable Law.
The
relationship between the Administrative Agent and each Lender is a contractual
relationship only, and nothing herein shall be deemed to impose on the
Administrative Agent any obligations other than those for which express
provision is made herein or in the other Loan Documents. The
Administrative Agent may employ agents and attorneys-in-fact and shall not be
responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any such agents or
attorneys-in-fact selected by it in good faith. The Administrative
Agent may deem and treat the payee of a Note as the holder thereof for all
purposes hereof unless and until a notice of the assignment or transfer thereof
shall have been filed with the Administrative Agent, any such assignment or
transfer to be subject to the provisions of Section
14.07. Except to the extent expressly provided in Sections 13.08 and
13.10, the
provisions of this Article XIII are
solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and the
Borrower shall not have any rights as a third-party beneficiary of any of the
provisions hereof and the Lenders may Modify or waive such provisions of this
Article XIII in
their sole and absolute discretion.
13.02 Reliance by Administrative
Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon
any certification, notice, document or other communication (including any
thereof by telephone, telecopy, telegram or cable) reasonably believed by it to
be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by or on behalf of the
proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel,
independent accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent
in good faith. As to any matters not expressly provided for by this
Agreement or any other Loan Document, the Administrative Agent shall in all
cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, hereunder or
thereunder in accordance with instructions given by the Required Lenders, and
such instructions of the Required Lenders and any action taken or failure to act
pursuant thereto shall be binding on all of the Lenders.
13.03 Defaults.
(a) The
Administrative Agent shall give the Lenders notice of any material Default of
which the Administrative Agent has knowledge or notice. Except with
respect to (i) the nonpayment of principal, interest or any fees that are due
and payable under any of the Loan Documents, (ii) Defaults with respect to which
the Administrative Agent has actually sent written notice of to the Borrower and
(iii) material Defaults with respect to which the Administrative Agent is given
written notice (or copied on such written notice) from a third party specifying
such Default, the Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or
notice of the occurrence of a Default unless the Administrative Agent has
received notice from a Lender or the Borrower specifying such Default and
stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default”. If the
Administrative Agent has such knowledge or receives such a notice from the
Borrower or a Lender in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence with
respect to the occurrence of a material Default, the Administrative Agent shall
give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders. Within ten (10) days of
delivery of such notice of Default from the Administrative Agent to the Lenders
(or such shorter period of time as the Administrative Agent determines is
necessary), the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall consult with each
other to determine a proposed course of action. The Lenders agree
that the Administrative Agent shall (subject to Section 13.07)
take such action with respect to such Default as shall be directed by the
Required Lenders, provided that, (A)
unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such directions,
the Administrative Agent may while a Default exists (but shall not be obligated
to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, including decisions
(1) to make protective advances that the Administrative Agent determines are
necessary to protect or maintain the Projects and (2) to foreclose on any of the
Projects or exercise any other remedy, with respect to such Default as it shall
deem advisable in the interest of the Lenders and (B) no actions approved by the
Required Lenders shall violate the Loan Documents or Applicable
Law. Each of the Lenders acknowledges and agrees that no individual
Lender may separately enforce or exercise any of the provisions of any of the
Loan Documents (including the Notes) other than through the Administrative
Agent. The Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of all
material actions which the Administrative Agent takes in accordance with the
provisions of this Section 13.03(a) and
shall continue to consult with the Lenders with respect to all of such
actions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Required Lenders shall
at any time direct that a different or additional remedial action be taken from
that already undertaken by the Administrative Agent, including the commencement
of foreclosure proceedings, such different or additional remedial action shall
be taken in lieu of or in addition to, the prosecution of such action taken by
the Administrative Agent; provided that all
actions already taken by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 13.03(a)
shall be valid and binding on each Lender. All money (other than
money subject to the provisions of Section 13.03(f))
received from any enforcement actions, including the proceeds of a foreclosure
sale of the Projects, shall be applied, first, to the payment
or reimbursement of the Administrative Agent for expenses and advances incurred
in accordance with the provisions of Sections 13.03(a) and
(d) and 13.05 and to the
payment of any fees owing to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Loan
Documents, second, to the
payment or reimbursement of the Lenders for expenses incurred in accordance with
the provisions of Sections 13.03(b),
(c) and (d) and 13.05; third, to the payment
or reimbursement of the Lenders for any advances made pursuant to Section 13.03(b);
fourth, pari
passu to the Lenders in accordance with their respective Proportionate Shares
until the Obligations have been fully paid and discharged in full; and fifth to the
person(s) legally entitled thereto.
(b) All
losses with respect to interest (including interest at the Post-Default Rate)
and other sums payable pursuant to the Notes or incurred in connection with the
Loans, the enforcement thereof or the realization of the security therefor,
shall be borne by the Lenders in accordance with their respective Proportionate
Shares of the Loan, and the Lenders shall promptly, upon request, remit to the
Administrative Agent their respective Proportionate Shares of (i) any expenses
incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Default to the
extent any expenses have not been paid by the Borrower, (ii) any advances made
to pay taxes or insurance or otherwise to preserve the Lien of the Security
Documents or to preserve and protect the Projects, whether or not the amount
necessary to be advanced for such purposes exceeds the amount of the
Obligations, (iii) any other expenses incurred in connection with the
enforcement of the Deeds of Trust or other Loan Documents, and (iv) any expenses
incurred in connection with the consummation of the Loans not paid or provided
for by the Borrower. To the extent any such advances are recovered in
connection with the enforcement of the Deeds of Trust or the other Loan
Documents, each Lender shall be paid its Proportionate Share of such recovery
after deduction of the expenses of the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders.
(c) If, at
the direction of the Required Lenders or otherwise as provided in Section 13.03(a), any
action(s) is brought to collect on the Notes or enforce the Security Documents
or any other Loan Document, such action shall (to the extent permitted under
applicable law and the decisions of the court in which such action is brought)
be an action brought by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, collectively,
to collect on all or a portion of the Notes or enforce the Security Documents or
any other Loan Document and counsel selected by the Administrative Agent shall
prosecute any such action at the direction of the Administrative Agent on behalf
of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and the Administrative Agent and
the Lenders shall consult and cooperate with each other in the prosecution
thereof. All decisions concerning the appointment of a receiver while
such action is pending, the conduct of such receivership, the conduct of such
action, the collection of any judgment entered in such action and the settlement
of such action shall be made by the Administrative Agent. The costs
and expenses of any such action shall be borne by the Lenders in accordance with
each of their respective Proportionate Shares (without diminishing or releasing
any obligation of the Borrower to pay for such costs).
(d) If, at
the direction of the Required Lenders or otherwise as provided in Section 13.03(a), any
action(s) is brought to foreclose any Deed of Trust, such action shall (to the
extent permitted under applicable law and the decisions of the court in which
such action is brought) be an action brought by the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders, collectively, to foreclose all or a portion of the Deed of Trust and
collect on the Notes. Counsel selected by the Administrative Agent
shall prosecute any such foreclosure at the direction of the Administrative
Agent on behalf of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall consult and cooperate with each other
in the prosecution thereof. All decisions concerning the appointment
of a receiver, the conduct of such foreclosure, the manner of taking and holding
title to any such Project (other than as set forth in subsection (e)
below), and the commencement and conduct of any deficiency judgment proceeding
shall be made by the Administrative Agent (subject to the rights of the Required
Lenders under Section
13.03(a)), and all decisions concerning the acceptance of a deed in lieu
of foreclosure and the bid on behalf of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders
at the foreclosure sale of any Project shall be made by the Administrative Agent
with the approval of the Required Lenders. The costs and expenses of
foreclosure will be borne by the Lenders in accordance with their respective
Proportionate Shares.
(e) If title
is acquired to any Project after a foreclosure sale, nonjudicial foreclosure or
by a deed in lieu of foreclosure, title shall be held by the Administrative
Agent in its own name in trust for the Lenders or, at the Administrative Agent’s
election, in the name of a wholly owned subsidiary of the Administrative Agent
on behalf of the Lenders.
(f) If the
Administrative Agent (or its subsidiary) acquires title to any Project or is
entitled to possession of any Project during or after the foreclosure, all
material decisions with respect to the possession, ownership, development,
construction, control, operation, leasing, management and sale of such Project
shall be made by the Administrative Agent; provided, however, that, prior
to consummating a sale of any Project, the Administrative Agent shall obtain the
consent of the Required Lenders to the price and other material economic terms
upon which such Project shall be sold. All income or other money
received after so acquiring title to or taking possession of such Project with
respect to the Project, including income from the operation and management of
such Project and the proceeds of a sale of such Project, shall be applied, first, to the payment
or reimbursement of the Administrative Agent and the expenses incurred in
accordance with the provisions of this Article XIII and to
the payment of any fees owed to the Administrative Agent; second, to the
payment of operating expenses with respect to such Project; third, to the
establishment of reasonable reserves for the operation of such Project; fourth, to the
payment or reimbursement of the Lenders for any advances made pursuant to Section 13.03(b);
fifth to fund
any capital improvement, leasing and other reserves; and sixth, to the Lenders
in accordance with their respective Proportionate Shares.
13.04 Rights as a
Lender. With respect to its Commitment and the Loans made by
it, Eurohypo (and any successor acting as Administrative Agent) in its capacity
as a Lender hereunder shall have the same rights and powers hereunder as any
other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not acting as the
Administrative Agent, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless the
context otherwise indicates, include the Administrative Agent in its individual
capacity. Subject to the provisions of Sections 4.07 and
14.10, Eurohypo
(and any successor acting as Administrative Agent) and any of its Affiliates may
(without having to account therefor to any other Lender) accept deposits from,
lend money to, make investments in and generally engage in any kind of banking,
investment banking, trust or other business with the Borrower (and any of its
Affiliates) as if it were not acting as the Administrative Agent and Eurohypo
(and any such successor) and any of its Affiliates may accept fees and other
consideration from the Borrower for services in connection with this Agreement
or otherwise without having to account for the same to the
Lenders.
13.05 Indemnification. Each
Lender agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent (to the extent not
reimbursed by the Borrower, but without limiting the obligations of the Borrower
under Section 14.03)
in accordance with their Proportionate Shares, for any and all liabilities,
obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs,
expenses or disbursements of any kind and nature whatsoever that may be imposed
on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in its capacity as
Administrative Agent (including by any Lender) arising out of or by reason of
any investigation in or in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement
or any other Loan Document or any other documents contemplated by or referred to
herein or therein or the Transactions (including the costs and expenses that the
Borrower is obligated to pay under Section 14.03, but
excluding, unless a Default has occurred and is continuing, normal
administrative costs and expenses incident to the performance of its agency
duties hereunder) or the enforcement of any of the terms hereof or thereof,
provided that
no Lender shall be liable for any of the foregoing to the extent they arise from
the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the Administrative
Agent.
13.06 Non-Reliance on
Administrative Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender agrees
that it has, independently and without reliance on the Administrative Agent or
any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed
appropriate, made its own credit analysis of the Borrower and its decision to
enter into this Agreement and that it will, independently and without reliance
upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents
and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its
own analysis and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement
or under any other Loan Document. The Administrative Agent shall not
be required to keep itself informed as to the performance or observance by the
Borrower of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or any other
document referred to or provided for herein or therein or to inspect the
Properties or books of the Borrower. Except for notices, reports and
other documents and information expressly required to be furnished to the
Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder or under the other Loan Documents,
the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide
any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the affairs,
financial condition or business of the Borrower (or any of its Affiliates) that
may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its
Affiliates.
13.07 Failure to
Act. Except for action expressly required of the
Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the
Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully justified in failing or
refusing to act hereunder and thereunder unless it shall receive further
assurances to its satisfaction from the Lenders of their indemnification
obligations under Section 13.05
against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason
of taking or continuing to take any such action, subject to the limitations on
such obligations contained in such Section
13.05.
13.08 Resignation of
Administrative Agent. It is agreed by the Lenders that subject
to the terms of this Loan Agreement, the Administrative Agent will remain the
Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents
throughout the term of the Loans; provided, however, that
(a) the Administrative Agent may assign all its rights as the
Administrative Agent to any Related Entity of Eurohypo, and such Related Entity
shall assume the obligations of Administrative Agent hereunder arising after the
date of such assignment, (b) subject to the appointment and acceptance of a
successor Administrative Agent as provided below, the Administrative Agent may
resign at any time by giving at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice
thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower and (c) the Administrative Agent may be
removed upon the unanimous consent of the Lenders (excepting therefrom the
Administrative Agent in its capacity as a Lender) on account of the gross
negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the Administrative
Agent. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Required Lenders
shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent that shall be a
Person that, provided that no Event of Default then exists, meets the
qualifications of an Eligible Assignee with an office in the United States
through which it will act as the servicer of the Loans; who is knowledgeable and
experienced in servicing real estate secured syndicated commercial loans in the
United States; who (together with its Affiliates and Related Entities and any
Approved Funds managed by it or by any of its Affiliates or Related Entities)
then holds or, at the time it becomes successor Administrative Agent hereunder
will hold (and agrees in writing for the benefit of the Borrower to maintain,
for so long as it shall remain the Administrative Agent and provided that no
Event of Default has occurred), minimum Loans and Commitments in an aggregate
principal amount not less than ten percent (10%) of the aggregate Outstanding
Principal Amount of the Loans plus any Unused
Commitments; and who agrees in writing for the benefit of the Borrower not to
resign except in accordance with the provisions of this Loan
Agreement. If such successor Administrative Agent is not a Lender (or
is a Lender, but such Lender does not comply with the requirements of the second
sentence of this Section 13.08), as
long as no Major Default exists, the Borrower shall have the right to approve
such successor Administrative Agent, such approval not to be unreasonably
withheld or delayed and which consent shall be deemed to have been given unless
written notice of disapproval is delivered by the Borrower to the resigning
Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days after notice of such proposed
successor Administrative Agent has been delivered to the
Borrower. If, in the case of a resignation by the Administrative
Agent, no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the
Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30)
days after the retiring Administrative Agent’s giving of notice of resignation,
then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a
successor Administrative Agent, that shall be a Person that meets the
requirements of the second sentence of this Section
13.08. If any successor Administrative Agent is not a Lender
(or is a Lender, but such Lender does not comply with the requirements of the
second sentence of this Section 13.08), the
Borrower, as long as no Major Default exists, shall have the right to approve
such successor Administrative Agent, such approval not to be unreasonably
withheld or delayed and which consent shall be deemed to have been given unless,
in the case of a resignation, written notice of disapproval is delivered by the
Borrower to the resigning Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days
after notice of such proposed successor Administrative Agent has been delivered
to the Borrower. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as the
Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such
successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with
all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative
Agent, and such successor Administrative Agent shall assume all obligations of
the Administrative Agent hereunder arising after the date of such acceptance,
and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its
duties and obligations hereunder; provided, however, that the
retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall not be discharged from any
liabilities which existed prior to the effective date of such
resignation. The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor
Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor
unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such
successor. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation
hereunder as the Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article XIII shall
continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to
be taken by it while it was acting as the Administrative Agent.
13.09 Consents under Loan
Documents. Subject to the provisions of Section 14.05, the
Administrative Agent may (a) grant any consent or approval required of it or (b)
consent to any Modification or waiver under any of the Loan
Documents. If the Administrative Agent solicits any consents or
approvals from the Lenders under any of the Loan Documents, each Lender shall
within ten (10) Business Days of receiving such request, give the Administrative
Agent written notice of its consent or approval or denial thereof; provided that, if any
Lender does not respond within such ten (10) Business Days or within any such
shorter period as required in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, such
Lender shall be deemed to have authorized the Administrative Agent to vote such
Lender’s interest with respect to the matter which was the subject of the
Administrative Agent’s solicitation as the Administrative Agent
elects. Any such solicitation by the Administrative Agent for a
consent or approval shall be in writing and shall include a description of the
matter or thing as to which such consent or approval is requested and shall
include the Administrative Agent’s recommended course of action or determination
in respect thereof.
13.10 Authorization. The
Administrative Agent is hereby authorized by the Lenders to execute, deliver and
perform in accordance with the terms of each of the Loan Documents to which the
Administrative Agent is or is intended to be a party and each Lender agrees to
be bound by all of the agreements of the Administrative Agent contained in such
Loan Documents. The Borrower shall be entitled to rely on all written
agreements, approvals and consents received from the Administrative Agent as
being that also of the Lenders, without obtaining separate acknowledgment or
proof of authorization of same.
13.11 Amendments Concerning Agency
Function. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall not be bound by any waiver,
amendment, supplement or Modification of this Agreement or any other Loan
Document which affects its duties, rights and/or functions hereunder or
thereunder unless it shall have given its prior written consent
thereto.
13.12 Liability of the
Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall not have
any liabilities or responsibilities to the Borrower on account of the failure of
any Lender (other than the Administrative Agent in its capacity as a Lender) to
perform its obligations hereunder or to any Lender on account of the failure of
the Borrower to perform its obligations hereunder or under any other Loan
Document.
13.13 Transfer of Agency
Function. Without the consent of the Borrower or any Lender,
the Administrative Agent may at any time or from time to time transfer its
functions as the Administrative Agent hereunder to any of its offices wherever
located in the United States; provided that the
Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders
thereof.
13.14 Documentation
Agents. No Lender identified on the cover page of or elsewhere
in this Agreement as a “Documentation Agent” shall have any right, power,
obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement other than
those applicable to a Lender having that Lender’s Commitment under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
ARTICLE
XIV
MISCELLANEOUS
14.01 Non-Waiver; Remedies
Cumulative. No failure on the part of the Administrative Agent
or any Lender to exercise and no delay in exercising, and no course of dealing
with respect to, any right, power or privilege under this Agreement or any other
Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or
partial exercise of any right, power or privilege under this Agreement or any
other Loan Documents preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the
exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The remedies
provided herein and in the other Loan Documents are cumulative and not exclusive
of any remedies provided by law.

Lenders.
(b) Notices

Events, (D) any Environmental Losses and (E) any act performed or permitted to
be performed by any Indemnified Party under any of the Loan Documents, except
for Losses to the extent determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be

Indemnified Party (but the effect of this exception only eliminates the
liability of the Borrower with respect to the Indemnified Party (and if such
Indemnified Party is not a Lender, the Lender on whose behalf such Indemnified
Party was acting) to the extent such Indemnified Party has been adjudged to have
so acted and not with respect to any other Indemnified Party), and (ii)
reimburse each Indemnified Party on demand for any expenses (including the
reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) reasonably incurred in connection
with the investigation of, preparation for or defense of any actual or
threatened claim, action or proceeding arising therefrom (excluding any action

proceeding out of which any such expenses arise unless such Indemnified Party is
required to participate or respond in connection with such action or proceeding
(e.g., by way of deposition, discovery requests, testimony, subpoena or similar
reason)). The Obligations shall not be considered to have been paid
in full unless all obligations of the Borrower under this Section 14.04(a)
shall have been fully performed (except for contingent indemnification
obligations for which no claim has actually been made pursuant to this
Agreement). This Section 14.04(a)
shall survive repayment in full of the Obligations and, as to any Project, the
release of that Project as collateral for the Loans in accordance with Section 2.09 of this
Agreement, and in addition, shall survive the assignment, sale or other transfer
of the Administrative Agent’s or any Lender’s interest hereunder.
(b) Reserved.
14.05 Amendments,
Etc. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement
or the other Loan Documents, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be
Modified only by an instrument in writing signed by the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent acting with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided
that: (a) no Modification or waiver shall, unless by an

theretofore made by the Borrower hereunder, without the consent of all Lenders;
and provided,
further, that
without the consent of the Required Lenders, in no event shall the
Administrative Agent: (I) waive any interest accrued at the Post-Default Rate
(to the extent such interest exceeds the interest which would have accrued at
the interest rate that would be in effect if the Post-Default Rate was not then
applicable) or late fees; (II) waive any covenant of Borrower set forth in Section 9.02 (except
for the waiver, in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s standard of care

14.06 Successors and
Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the
benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted
assigns.
14.07 Assignments and
Participations.
(a) Consent Required for
Assignments by the Borrower. Except as otherwise expressly
permitted by this Agreement, the Borrower may not assign any of its rights or
obligations hereunder or under the Loan Documents without the prior consent of
all of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent.
(b) Assignments by
Lenders.
(i) Subject
to the conditions set forth in subsection (b)(ii)
below, any Lender may assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its
rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its
Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent
of:
(A) the
Borrower, whose consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or
delayed; provided that (1)
such consent shall be deemed granted should the Borrower fail to respond within
five (5) Business Days upon receipt of a notice of such assignment and (2)
should the Borrower not give such consent, the Borrower shall provide to the
Administrative Agent and the Lender requesting such assignment its specific
reasons for such disapproval; provided that no
consent of the Borrower shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an
Affiliate of a Lender that is engaged in making, purchasing, holding or
investing in bank loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course
of its business (and which is not engaged in the business of acquiring direct or
indirect ownership interests in commercial real estate projects), an Eligible
Assignee or, if a Major Default exists, any other assignee; and
(B) the
Administrative Agent, whose consent shall not be unreasonably withheld,
conditioned or delayed; provided that no
consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment of all
or a portion of any Commitment or Loans to an assignee that is a Lender with a
Commitment immediately prior to giving effect to such assignment or an Affiliate
of the assigning Lender if also an Eligible Assignee.
(ii) Assignments
shall be subject to the following additional conditions:
(A) except in
the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an
assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment
or Loan, the amount of the Commitment or Loan of the assigning Lender subject to
each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption
with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall
not be less than $5,000,000 unless each of the Borrower and the Administrative
Agent otherwise consent; provided that no such
consent of the Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default
exists;
(B) each
partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all
the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement;
(C) the
parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent
an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of
$4,500; and
(D) the
assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent
an Administrative Questionnaire.
(iii) Subject
to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to subsection (b)(iv)
of this Section
14.07, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and
Assumption the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of
the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and
obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender
thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and
Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the
case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s
rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a
party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 5.01,
5.05, 5.06 and 14.04); provided, however, that in no
event shall such assigning Lender be released with respect to any defaults by or
liabilities of such Lender under the Loan Documents which accrued prior to such
assignment. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or
obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 14.07 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 (c) of
this Section 14.07.
(iv) The
Administrative Agent shall maintain at its Principal Office a copy of each
Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of
the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal
amount of the 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 the
Borrower, the Administrative Agent, and the Lenders may treat each Person whose
name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender
hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the
contrary. The Administrative Agent shall record all entries in the
Register promptly upon their being effected. The Register shall be
available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time
and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.
(v) Upon its
receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning
Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire,
the processing and recordation fee referred to in subsection (b) of
this Section
14.07 and any written consent to such assignment required by subsection (b) of
this Section
14.07, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and
Assumption and record the information contained therein in the
Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this
Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this
subsection.
(c) Participations.
(i) Any
Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent,
sell participations to one or more banks or other financial institutions
(including, without limitation, life insurance companies), or an Affiliate of
the Lender that is engaged in making, purchasing, holding or investing in bank
loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business
(and which is not engaged in the business of acquiring direct or indirect
ownership interests in commercial real estate projects) (a “Participant”) in all
or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the
Loans owing to it); provided that
(A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely
responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations
and (C) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall
continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such
Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents. 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 the other Loan Documents and to approve any
Modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan
Document; provided that such
agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the
consent of such Participant, agree to (1) increase or extend the term of such
Lender’s Commitment to the extent that it affects such Participant, (2) extend
the date fixed for the payment of principal of or interest on the related Loan
or Loans, (3) reduce the amount of any such payment of principal or (4) reduce
the rate at which interest is payable thereon to a level below the rate at which
the Participant is entitled to receive such interest. Subject to
subsection (c)(ii)
of this Section
14.07, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the
benefits of Sections
5.01, 5.05 and 5.06 to the same
extent, but subject to the same limitations, conditions and duties set forth in
such sections, as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by
assignment pursuant to subsection (b)
of this Section
14.07. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also
shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 14.10 as
though it were a Lender; provided that such
Participant agrees to be subject to Section 14.10 as
though it were a Lender.
(ii) A
Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 5.01
or 5.06
than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to
the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation
to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written
consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a
Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 5.06
unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant
and such Participant agrees in writing, for the benefit of the Borrower, to
comply with Section 5.06 as
though it were a Lender.
(d) Pledges. In
addition to the assignments and participations permitted under the foregoing
provisions of this Section
14.07: (i) any Lender may (without notice to the Borrower, the
Administrative Agent or any other Lender and without payment of any fee) assign
and pledge all or any portion of its Loans and its Note to any Federal Reserve
Bank as collateral security pursuant to Regulation A and any Operating Circular
issued by such Federal Reserve Bank, and such Loans and Note shall be
transferable as provided therein; and (ii) any Lender may (upon notice to the
Administrative Agent and without payment of any fee) assign and pledge all or
any portion of its Loans and its Note as collateral for financing, and such
Loans and Note shall be fully transferable as provided therein. No
such assignment shall release the assigning Lender from its obligations
hereunder.
(e) Provision of Information to
Assignees and Participants. A Lender may furnish any
information concerning the Borrower, the Projects, the Loans, the Borrower’s
Member/General Partner or any Borrower Party in the possession of such Lender
from time to time to assignees, pledgees and participants (including prospective
assignees, pledgees and participants), subject, however, to the party receiving
such information confirming in writing that such party and such information is
subject to the provisions of Section
14.24.
(f) No Assignments to the
Borrower or Affiliates. Anything in this Section 14.07 or
Section 14.27
to the contrary notwithstanding, each Lender agrees for itself that it shall not
assign or participate any interest in any Loan held by it hereunder to the
Borrower or any of its Affiliates without the prior consent of each
Lender.
14.08 Survival. The
obligations of the Borrower under Sections 3.02(e),
5.01, 5.05, 5.06, 14.03, 14.04 and 14.12, and the
obligations of the Lenders under Sections 13.05,
shall survive the repayment of the Obligations, the termination of the
Commitments and, as to any Project, the release of that Project as collateral
for the Loans in accordance with Section 2.09 of this
Agreement, and in addition, in the case of any Lender that may assign any
interest under the Loan Documents in accordance with the terms thereof including
any Lender’s interest in its Commitment or Loan hereunder, shall survive the
making of such assignment, notwithstanding that such assigning Lender may cease
to be a “Lender” hereunder. In addition, each representation and
warranty made herein or pursuant hereto by the Borrower shall survive the making
of such representation and warranty, and no Lender shall be deemed to have
waived, by reason of making any Loan, any Default that may arise by reason of
such representation or warranty proving to have been false or misleading,
notwithstanding that such Lender or the Administrative Agent may have had notice
or knowledge or reason to believe that such representation or warranty was false
or misleading at the time such Loan was made.
14.09 Reserved.
14.10 Right of
Set-off.
(a) Upon the
occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, each of the
Lenders is, subject (as between the Lenders) to the provisions of subsection (c) of
this Section
14.10, hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, without
notice to the Borrower (any such notice being expressly waived by the Borrower)
and 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) at any time
held, and other indebtedness at any time owing, by such Lender in any of its
offices, in Dollars or in any other currency, to or for the credit or the
account of the Borrower against any and all of the respective obligations of the
Borrower now or hereafter existing under the Loan Documents, irrespective of
whether or not such Lender or any other Lender shall have made any demand
hereunder and although such obligations may be contingent or unmatured and such
deposits or indebtedness may be unmatured. Each Lender and the
Administrative Agent acknowledges that it is aware of the implications of the
anti-deficiency laws and “one form of action” laws of various jurisdictions in
which the Collateral may be located. These laws, in general, restrict
or prohibit the exercise of remedies under loans secured by real property, and
the violation of those laws can result in severe consequences to a lender,
including a loss of the real property security. These laws include,
for example, Section 726 of the California Code of Civil
Procedure. Therefore, anything obtained in this Section 14.10 to the
contrary notwithstanding, no Lender shall exercise any right of set-off against
any Borrower Party with respect to the Obligations under the Loan Documents
without the prior written consent of all of the Lenders. In the event
that any Lender exercises any right of set-off without all of the Lenders’ prior
consent, such Lender shall protect, indemnify, defend and hold harmless the
Administrative Agent and each of the other Lenders from and against any
liability, loss, cost, damage, or injury that may result from such Person’s
exercise of its right of set-off. This Section 14.10 shall
inure only for the benefit of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, and may
not be relied upon by any third party, including but not limited to the Borrower
and its Subsidiaries.
(b) Each
Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any
such set-off and application, provided that the
failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and
application. The rights of the Lenders under this Section 14.10 are in
addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of set-off) which
the Lenders may have.
(c) If an
Event of Default has resulted in the Loans becoming due and payable prior to the
stated maturity thereof, each Lender agrees that it shall turn over to the
Administrative Agent any payment (whether voluntary or involuntary, through the
exercise of any right of setoff or otherwise) on account of the Loans held by it
in excess of its ratable portion of payments on account of the Loans obtained by
all the Lenders.
14.11 Remedies of
Borrower. It is expressly understood and agreed that,
notwithstanding any Applicable Law or any provision of this Agreement or the
other Loan Documents to the contrary, the liability of the Administrative Agent
and each Lender (including their respective successors and assigns) and any
recourse of the Borrower against the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall
be limited solely and exclusively to their respective interests in the Loans
and/or Commitments or the Projects. Without limiting the foregoing,
in the event that a claim or adjudication is made that the Administrative Agent,
any of the Lenders, or their agents, acted unreasonably or unreasonably delayed
acting in any case where by Applicable Law or under this Agreement or the other
Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any such agent, as the
case may be, has an obligation to act reasonably or promptly, or otherwise
violated this Agreement or the Loan Documents, the Borrower agrees that none of
the Administrative Agent, the Lenders or their agents shall be liable for any
incidental, indirect, special, punitive, consequential or speculative damages or
losses resulting from such failure to act reasonably or promptly in accordance
with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.
14.12 Brokers. The
Borrower hereby represents to the Administrative Agent and each Lender that it
has not dealt with any broker, underwriter, placement agent, or finder in
connection with the Transactions. The Borrower hereby agrees that it
shall pay any and all brokerage commissions or finders fees owing to any broker
or finder engaged by Borrower or any of its Affiliates in connection with the
Transactions and agrees and acknowledges that payment of all such brokerage
commissions or finders fees shall be the Borrower’s sole
responsibility. The Borrower hereby agrees to protect and indemnify
and hold the Administrative Agent and each Lender harmless from and against any
and all claims, liabilities, costs and expenses of any kind in any way relating
to or arising from a claim by any broker or finder engaged by Borrower or any of
its Affiliates that such Person acted on behalf of the Borrower and is entitled
to compensation in connection with the Transactions.
14.13 Estoppel
Certificates.
(a) The
Borrower, within ten (10) days after the Administrative Agent’s request, shall
furnish to the Administrative Agent a written statement, duly acknowledged,
certifying to the Administrative Agent and each Lender and/or, subject to the
terms of Section
14.07, any proposed assignee of any portion of the interests
hereunder: (i) the amount of the Outstanding Principal Amount then
owing under this Agreement and each of the Notes, (ii) the terms of payment and
Stated Maturity Date of the Loans (or if earlier, the Maturity Date), (iii) the
date to which interest has been paid under each of the Notes, (iv) whether, to
the Borrower’s knowledge, any offsets or defenses exist against the repayment of
the Loans and, if any are alleged to exist, a reasonably detailed description
thereof, (v) the extent to which the Loan Documents have been Modified by the
Borrower and (vi) such other information as the Administrative Agent shall
reasonably request.
(b) The
Administrative Agent, within ten (10) days after the Borrower’s reasonable
request therefor, shall furnish to the Borrower a written statement, duly
acknowledged, certifying to any prospective permitted purchaser of an interest
in the Borrower or any prospective permitted lender to the Borrower or any
lender providing any Guaranteed Line of Credit, as to which the Borrower or any
Subsidiary thereof remains or will be obligated under a Guarantee: (i) the
amount of the Outstanding Principal Amount, (ii) the terms of payment and Stated
Maturity Date of the Loans (or if earlier, the Maturity Date), (iii) the date to
which interest has been paid under each of the Notes, (iv) whether, to the
actual knowledge of the Person signing on behalf of the Administrative Agent,
there are any Defaults on the part of the Borrower under this Agreement or under
any of the other Loan Documents, and, if any are alleged to exist, a detailed
description thereof and (v) the extent to which the Loan Documents have been
Modified.
14.14 Preferences. To
the extent that the Borrower makes a payment or payments to the Administrative
Agent and/or any Lender, which payment or proceeds or any part thereof are
subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside
or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any
bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then, to
the extent of such payment or proceeds received, the obligations hereunder or
part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continue in full
force and effect, as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by the
Administrative Agent or a Lender, as the case may be.
14.15 Certain
Waivers. The Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally
waives (a) promptness and diligence, (b) notice of any actions taken
by the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder or under any other Loan
Document or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto except to the
extent (i) otherwise expressly provided herein or therein or (ii) the Borrower
is not, pursuant to Applicable Law, permitted to waive the giving of such
notice, (c) all other notices, demands and protests, and all other
formalities of every kind in connection with the enforcement of the Borrower’s
obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the omission of or
delay in which, but for the provisions of this Section 14.15, might

hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, except to the extent otherwise
expressly provided herein or to the extent that the Borrower is not, pursuant to
Applicable Law, permitted to waive the giving of such notice, (d) any
requirement that the Administrative Agent or any Lender protect, secure, perfect
or insure any lien on any collateral for the Loans or exhaust any right or take
any action against the Borrower or any other Person or against any collateral
for the Loans, (e) any right or claim of right to cause a marshalling of
the Borrower’s assets and (f) until the Obligations are paid in full and
discharged, all rights of subrogation or contribution, whether arising by
contract or operation of law or otherwise by reason of payment by the Borrower
pursuant hereto or to the other Loan Documents.

(a) Neither
the Borrower, nor any past, present or future member in, partner in, or manager

result of any of the following: (i) the commission of a criminal act
by or on behalf of the Borrower, (ii) fraud, intentional misrepresentation or
intentionally inaccurate certification made at any time in connection with the
Loan Documents or the Loans by or on behalf of the Borrower; (iii)
misapplication or misappropriation of cash flow or other revenue derived from or

appointment of a receiver.
(c) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, the Guarantor shall have personal
liability on the terms contained in the Guarantor Documents (to the extent
provided therein).
14.24 Confidentiality. Each
of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agrees to maintain the
confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information
that may be disclosed (a) to it and its Subsidiaries’ and Affiliates’
directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel
and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure
is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and
instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent
requested by any regulatory authority, (c) to the extent required by
Applicable Laws or 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 under any other Loan Document or any suit, action or
proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the
enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement
containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 14.24, to (i)
any assignee or pledgee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee or
pledgee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this
Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to
any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrower and its obligations,
(g) with the consent of the Borrower or (h) to the extent such
Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a
breach of this Section
14.24 or of arrangements entered into pursuant hereto or
(ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a
non-confidential basis from a source other than the Borrower; provided, however, the
obligation to maintain the confidentiality of the Information provided hereunder
shall expire twelve (12) months after the date upon which the Obligations
hereunder are indefeasibly paid in full. For the purposes of this
Section 14.24,
“Information”
means all written information received from or on behalf of the Borrower
relating to the Borrower, its Subsidiaries or Affiliates or their respective
businesses, other than any such information that is available to the
Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis (and obtained from
a Person not known by the Administrative Agent or such Lender to have disclosed
such information in violation of a contractual confidentiality obligation of
such Person owed to the Borrower) prior to disclosure by the
Borrower. The Administrative Agent and each Lender, to the extent
required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this
Section 14.24,
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 a commercial banker exercising reasonable and customary business
practices would accord to its own confidential
information. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the
information subject to this Section 14.24 shall
not include, and the Administrative Agent and each Lender may disclose without
limitation of any kind, any information with respect to the “tax treatment” and
“tax structure” (in each case, within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section
1.6011-4) of the transactions contemplated hereby and all materials of any kind
(including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to the
Administrative Agent or such Lender relating to such tax treatment and tax
structure; provided that with
respect to any document or similar item that in either case contains information
concerning the tax treatment or tax structure of the transactions as well as
other information, this sentence shall only apply to such portions of the
document or similar item that relate to the tax treatment or tax structure of
the Loans and transactions contemplated hereby. Subject to the terms set
forth in this sentence, Borrower authorizes Administrative Agent and each of the
Lenders to issue, at their own expense, press releases, advertisements and other
promotional materials in connection with Administrative Agent’s or such Lender’s
own promotional and marketing activities, so long as such materials describe the
Loans in a manner which is consistent with any accurate description of the Loans
contained in any press release or public filing issued by the Borrower; provided, however, that prior
to issuing any such press release, advertisement or other promotional materials,
the Lender seeking to issue the same shall first deliver the proposed form of
the same to the Administrative Agent for its review and submission to the
Borrower, and provided, further, that no such
press release, advertisement or other promotional materials shall be issued
unless Borrower has approved the form of the same (which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and which approval shall be
granted so long as the information set forth therein is consistent with the
description of the Loans contained in any press release or public filing issued
by the Borrower).
14.25 Usury Savings
Clause. It is the intention of the Borrower, the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders to conform strictly to the usury and
similar laws relating to interest from time to time in force, and all Loan
Documents between the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders,
whether now existing or hereafter arising and whether oral or written, are
hereby expressly limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever, whether
by acceleration of maturity hereof or otherwise, shall the amount paid or agreed
to be paid in the aggregate to the Lenders as interest (whether or not
designated as interest, and including any amount otherwise designated by or
deemed to constitute interest by a court of competent jurisdiction) hereunder or
under the other Loan Documents or in any other agreement given to secure the
Loans, or in any other document evidencing, securing or pertaining to the Loans,
exceed the maximum amount (the “Maximum Rate”)
permissible under Applicable Laws. If under any circumstances
whatsoever fulfillment of any provision hereof, of this Agreement or of the
other Loan Documents, at the time performance of such provisions shall be due,
shall involve exceeding the Maximum Rate, then, ipso facto, the obligation to be
fulfilled shall be reduced to the Maximum Rate. For purposes of
calculating the actual amount of interest paid and/or payable hereunder in
respect of laws pertaining to usury or such other laws, all sums paid or agreed
to be paid to the Lenders for the use, forbearance or detention of the Loans
evidenced hereby, outstanding from time to time shall, to the extent permitted
by Applicable Law, be amortized, pro-rated, allocated and spread from the date
of disbursement of the proceeds of the Notes until payment in full of all of
such indebtedness, so that the actual rate of interest on account of such Loans
is uniform through the term hereof. If under any circumstances any
Lender shall ever receive an amount which would exceed the Maximum Rate, such
amount shall be deemed a payment in reduction of the principal amount of the
applicable Loans and shall be treated as a voluntary prepayment under this
Agreement (without prepayment penalty or premium) and shall be so applied in
accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, or if such excessive interest
exceeds the outstanding amount of the applicable Loans and any other
Obligations, the excess shall be deemed to have been a payment made by mistake
and shall be refunded to the Borrower.
14.26 Cooperation with
Syndication. The Borrower acknowledges that Arranger intends
to syndicate a portion of the Commitments to one or more Lenders (the
“Syndication”) and in connection therewith, the Borrower will take all actions
as Arranger may reasonably request to assist Arranger in its Syndication
effort. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the
Borrower shall, at the request of Arranger (i) facilitate the review of the Loan
and the Projects by any prospective Lender; (ii) assist Arranger and otherwise
cooperate with Arranger in the preparation of information offering materials
(which assistance may include reviewing and commenting on drafts of such
information materials and drafting portions thereof); (iii) deliver updated
information on the Borrower and the Projects; (iv) make representatives of the
Borrower available to meet with prospective Lenders at tours of the Projects and
bank meetings; (v) facilitate direct contact between the senior management and
advisors of the Borrower and any prospective Lender; and (vi) provide Arranger
with all information reasonably deemed necessary by it to complete the
Syndication successfully. The Borrower agrees to take such further
action, in connection with documents and amendments to the Loan Documents, as
may reasonably be required to effect such Syndication. The Borrower
shall not be responsible for any costs or expenses incurred by the
Administrative Agent, the Arranger, any Lender or any other Person in connection
with such Syndication, other than Arranger’s attorneys’ fees incurred through
the closing of the Loan.
14.27 [Reserved]
14.28 Controlled
Account. The Borrower hereby agrees with the Administrative
Agent, as to any Controlled Account into which this Agreement requires the
Borrower to deposit funds, as follows:
(a) Establishment and
Maintenance of the Controlled Account.
(i) Each
Controlled Account (A) shall be a separate and identifiable account from all
other funds held by the Depository Bank and (B) shall contain only funds
required to be deposited pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan
Document. Any interest which may accrue on the amounts on deposit in
a Controlled Account shall be added to and shall become part of the balance of
such Controlled Account. The Borrower, the Administrative Agent and
the applicable Depository Bank shall enter into an agreement (the “Controlled Account
Agreement”), substantially in the form of Exhibit O attached
hereto (with such changes thereto as may be required by the Depository Bank and
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, including, without limitation,
revisions necessary to utilize a separate deposit account control agreement
reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, the Depository Bank and the
Borrower) which shall govern the Controlled Account and the rights, duties and
obligations of each party to the Controlled Account Agreement.
(ii) The
Controlled Account Agreement shall provide that (A) the Controlled Account shall
be established in the name of the Administrative Agent, as agent for the
Lenders, (B) the Controlled Account shall be subject to the sole dominion,
control and discretion of the Administrative Agent, and (C) neither the
Borrower nor any other Person, including, without limitation, any Person
claiming on behalf of or through the Borrower, shall have any right or
authority, whether express or implied, to make use of or withdraw, or cause the
use or withdrawal of, any proceeds from the Controlled Account or any of the
other proceeds deposited in the Controlled Account, except as expressly provided
in this Agreement or in the Controlled Account Agreement.
(b) Deposits to and
Disbursements from the Controlled Account. All deposits to and
disbursements of all or any portion of the deposits to the Controlled Account
shall be in accordance with this Agreement and the Controlled Account
Agreement. The Borrower shall pay any and all fees charged by
Depository Bank in connection with the maintenance of the Controlled Account
required to be established by or for it hereunder, and the performance of the
Depository Bank’s duties.
(c) Security
Interest.
(i) The
Borrower hereby grants a perfected first priority security interest in favor of
the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Lenders in each
Controlled Account established by or for it hereunder and all financial assets
and other property and sums at any time held, deposited or invested therein, and
all security entitlements and investment property relating thereto, together
with any interest or other earnings thereon, and all proceeds thereof, whether
accounts, general intangibles, chattel paper, deposit accounts, instruments,
documents or securities (collectively, “Controlled Account
Collateral”), together with all rights of a secured party with respect
thereto (even if no further documentation is requested by the Administrative
Agent or the Lenders or executed by the Borrower).
(ii) The
Borrower covenants and agrees:
(A) to
do all acts that may be reasonably necessary to maintain, preserve and protect
the Controlled Account Collateral;
(B) to
pay promptly when due all material taxes, assessments, charges, encumbrances and
liens now or hereafter imposed upon or affecting any Controlled Account
Collateral;
(C) to
appear in and defend any action or proceeding which may materially and adversely
affect the Borrower’s title to or the Administrative Agent’s interest in the
Controlled Account Collateral;
(D) following
the creation of each Controlled Account established by or for the Borrower and
the initial funding thereof, other than to the Administrative Agent pursuant to
this Agreement or a Controlled Account Agreement, not to transfer, assign, sell,
surrender, encumber, mortgage, hypothecate, or otherwise dispose of any of the
Controlled Account Collateral or rights or interests therein, and to keep the
Controlled Account Collateral free of all levies and security interests or other
liens or charges except the security interest in favor of the Administrative
Agent granted hereunder;
(E) to
account fully for and promptly deliver to the Administrative Agent, in the form
received, all documents, chattel paper, instruments and agreements constituting
the Controlled Account Collateral hereunder, endorsed to the Administrative
Agent or in blank, as requested by the Administrative Agent, and accompanied by
such powers as appropriate and until so delivered all such documents,
instruments, agreements and proceeds shall be held by the Borrower in trust for
the Administrative Agent, separate from all other property of the Borrower;
and
(F) from
time to time upon request by the Administrative Agent, to furnish such further
assurances of the Borrower’s title with respect to the Controlled Account
Collateral, execute such written agreements, or do such other acts, all as may
be reasonably necessary to effectuate the purposes of this agreement or as may
be required by law, or in order to perfect or continue the first-priority lien
and security interest of the Administrative Agent in the Controlled Account
Collateral.
(iii) All
interest earned on the Controlled Account shall be retained in such Controlled
Account subject to the Borrower’s withdrawal rights set forth
herein. The Borrower shall treat all interest earned on the
Controlled Account as its income for federal income tax purposes.
(iv) Upon the
occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, the
Administrative Agent may (and, upon the instruction of the Required Lenders,
shall):
(A) without
any advertisement or notice to or authorization from the Borrower (all of which
advertisements, notices and/or authorizations are hereby expressly waived),
withdraw, sell or otherwise liquidate the funds deposited into any Controlled
Account, and apply the proceeds thereof to the unpaid Obligations in such order
as the Administrative Agent may elect in its sole discretion, without liability
for any loss, and the Borrower hereby consents to any such withdrawal and
application as a commercially reasonable disposition of such funds and agrees
that such withdrawal shall not result in satisfaction of the Obligations except
to the extent the proceeds are applied to such sums;
(B) without
any advertisement or notice to or authorization from the Borrower (all of which
advertisements, notices and/or authorizations are hereby expressly waived),
notify any account debtor on any Controlled Account Collateral pledged by the
Borrower pursuant hereto to make payment directly to the Administrative
Agent;
(C) foreclose
upon all or any portion of the Controlled Account Collateral pledged by the
Borrower or otherwise enforce the Administrative Agent’s security interest in
any manner permitted by law or provided for in this Agreement;
(D) sell
or otherwise dispose of all or any portion of the Controlled Account Collateral
pledged by the Borrower at one or more public or private sales, whether or not
such Controlled Account Collateral is present at the place of sale, for cash or
credit or future delivery, on such terms and in such manner as the
Administrative Agent may determine;
(E) recover
from the Borrower all costs and expenses, including, without limitation,
reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred or paid by the Administrative Agent in
exercising any right, power or remedy provided by this subsection (iv);
and
(F) exercise
any other right or remedy available to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders
under Applicable Law or in equity.
(v) Reserved.
14.29 Financing
Statements. The Borrower authorizes the Administrative Agent
to file such financing statements (and any continuation statements with respect
thereto) as the Administrative Agent may deem necessary in order to perfect or
maintain the perfection of any security interest granted or to be granted to the
Administrative Agent pursuant to any of the Loan Documents, in such
jurisdictions as the Administrative Agent may elect.
14.30 Severance of
Loan. Eurohypo shall have the right, at any time, but at no
additional cost to the Borrower, to direct the Administrative Agent, with
respect to all or any portion of the Loan, to (a) cause the Notes, the Deeds of
Trust and the other Security Documents to be severed and/or split into two or
more separate notes, deeds of trust and other security agreements, so as to
evidence and secure one or more senior and subordinate mortgage loans, (b)
create one more senior and subordinate notes (i.e., an A/B or A/B/C structure)
secured by the Deeds of Trust and the other Security Documents, (c) create
multiple components of the Notes (and allocate or reallocate the Outstanding
Principal Amount of the Loans plus Unused Commitments amount among such
components or among the components of the Notes delivered upon the Closing Date)
or (d) otherwise sever the Loan into two or more loans secured by the Deeds of
Trust and the other Security Documents; in each such case, in whatever
proportions and priorities as Eurohypo may so direct in its discretion to the
Administrative Agent; provided, however, that in each
such instance (i) the Outstanding Principal Amount of the Loans plus
Unused Commitments amount of all the Notes (or (in any case involving the
splitting, modification, componentization or other severance of any
previously-split, componentized or severed Note) components of such Notes)
immediately after the effective date of such splitting, modification,
componentization or other severance, equals the Outstanding Principal Amount of
the Loans plus Unused Commitments amount of all the Notes
(or (in any case involving the splitting, modification, componentization or
other severance of any previously-split, componentized or severed Note) the
applicable component thereof) immediately prior to such splitting, modification,
componentization or other severance, (ii) the weighted average of the interest
rates for all such Notes (or, if applicable, components of such Notes)
immediately after the effective date of such splitting, modification,
componentization or other severance equals the interest rate of the original
Note (or the applicable component thereof) immediately prior to such splitting,
modification, componentization or other severance thereof, (iii) there shall be
no modification of the Maturity Date, the Types of Loans available to be
selected by the Borrower (provided that the Applicable Margins on the relevant
Types may be modified, and may differ for each of such split, modified,
componentized or otherwise severed Notes or components, so long as the
restrictions set forth in clause (ii) above are not violated), the due dates for
mandatory principal payments, prepayment terms, Events of Default (other than
cross defaulting of any severed Notes or Security Documents) or any other
modifications which would result, in the aggregate, in an increase in the
economic obligations of the Borrower with respect to all Loans outstanding
hereunder following such splitting, modification, componentization or other
severance as compared to the obligations of the Borrower immediately prior
thereto (other than changes in the interest rate or Applicable Margins which do
not violate the restrictions in clause (ii) above), including, without
limitation, any recourse provisions, and (iv) except for modifications which do
not violate the restrictions set forth in clauses (ii) and (iii) above, such
modification shall not result, in the aggregate, in an increase in any liability
or obligation, or any change in any substantive rights, of the Borrower, any
Borrower Party, the Guarantor or any Named Principal under the Loan Documents
following such splitting, modification, componentization or other severance as
compared to the respective liabilities, obligations or rights of such parties
immediately prior thereto. If requested by the Administrative Agent
in writing, subject to the provisions of Section 2.04(b), the Borrower
shall execute within ten (10) Business Days after such request, a severance
agreement, amendments to or amendments and restatements of any one or more Loan
Documents, and such documentation as the Administrative Agent may reasonably
request to evidence and/or effectuate any such splitting, modification,
componentization or other severance, all in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to Eurohypo, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower.
14.31 Additional REIT
Provisions.
(a) The
Borrower shall have the right from time to time upon notice to, but without the
consent of, the Administrative Agent to change the Borrower’s Manager to the
REIT or any other REIT Subsidiary determined by the REIT. Upon the
occurrence of such change, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of
the name and principal place of business or chief executive office of the new
Borrower’s Manager within ten (10) Business Days after any change in the
same.
(b) Notwithstanding
the provisions of Section 1.02(b), the
Borrower shall have the right from time to time upon notice to, but without the
consent of, the Administrative Agent, to change its fiscal year, including the
last days of its fiscal year and fiscal quarters, to correspond with those of
the REIT. The Borrower shall provide written notice thereof to the
Administrative Agent within ten (10) Business Days after the occurrence of such
change.
(c) [reserved]
(d) The
Borrower shall have the right to terminate (or assign to the new property
manager) the existing Property Management Agreement for each Project and to
replace, pursuant to this Section 14.31(d), the
Property Manager by the REIT or by a management company controlled directly or
indirectly by the REIT (including, without limitation, the Operating Partnership
of the REIT or any other wholly-owned REIT Subsidiary). If any
Project is managed by the REIT or a REIT Subsidiary, then the Borrower may
dispense with the requirement of entering into a property management agreement
or may enter into a new property management agreement for one or more of the
Projects on such terms as it deems satisfactory (which may include, without
limitation, a separate cost sharing agreement delegating responsibilities for
property management to the REIT or a REIT Subsidiary); provided that, if a
property management agreement is entered into, such agreement shall in all
events be subordinate to the Deeds of Trust and the other Loan Documents, and,
within thirty (30) days after entering into a new property management agreement,
the Borrower and the new property manager will execute and deliver to the
Administrative Agent a Property Manager’s Consent, with such changes thereto as
may be reasonably necessary for the REIT or its Affiliates to comply with tax or
other Applicable Laws pertaining to their status.

LP Borrower acknowledge that they will each receive substantial benefits from
the Lenders’ extension of credit pursuant to this Agreement to the Borrower on
the joint and several, cross-collateralized basis provided for herein and in the

Borrower and LP Borrower shall be direct, primary, joint and several obligors
with respect to all Obligations (except to the extent expressly provided to the

reason any of 2007 LLC Borrower, 1995 LLC Borrower or LP Borrower (in such
event, such party is referred to herein as the “Secondary Obligor”)
is held or deemed to be a guarantor of or surety for the payment and performance
of the obligations of any other Borrower (in such event, such other party is
referred to herein as the “Primary Obligor”)
under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents (such obligations are
collectively referred to herein as the “Primary Obligor
Obligations” and all documents evidencing, securing or relating to the
Primary Obligor Obligation are referred to herein as the “Primary Obligor
Documents”), the Primary Obligor and Secondary Obligor hereby agree as
follows.
15.02 Rights of the Administrative

of the Primary Obligor’s rights under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents
with respect to any or all of the following acts, the Secondary Obligor
authorizes the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to perform any or all of the
following acts at any time in their sole discretion, all without notice to the
Secondary Obligor and without affecting the rights of the Administrative Agent
or the Lenders or the Secondary Obligor's obligations under this Agreement and
the Loan Documents:
(a) The
Administrative Agent or the Lenders may alter any terms of the Primary Obligor
Obligations or any part thereof, including renewing, compromising, extending or
accelerating, or otherwise changing the time for payment of, or increasing or
decreasing the rate of interest on, the Primary Obligor Obligations or any part
thereof.
(b) The
Administrative Agent or the Lenders may take and hold security for the Primary
Obligor Obligations, accept additional or substituted security therefor, and
subordinate, exchange, enforce, waive, release, compromise, fail to perfect and
sell or otherwise dispose of any such security.
(c) The
Administrative Agent or the Lenders may direct the order and manner of any sale
of all or any part of any security now or later to be held for the Primary
Obligor Obligations, and the Administrative Agent or the Lenders may also bid at
any such sale.
(d) The
Administrative Agent or the Lenders may apply any payments or recoveries from
the Primary Obligor, the Secondary Obligor or any other source, and any proceeds
of any security, to the Primary Obligor Obligations in such manner, order and
priority as the Administrative Agent or the Lenders may elect.
(e) The
Administrative Agent or the Lenders may release the Primary Obligor from its
liability for the Primary Obligor Obligations or any part thereof.
(f) The
Administrative Agent or the Lenders may substitute, add or release any one or
more guarantors or endorsers.
15.03 Obligations of Secondary
Obligor to be Absolute. The Secondary Obligor expressly agrees
that, until all Obligations have been paid and performed in full, the Secondary
Obligor shall not be released by or because of:
(a) Any
act or event which might otherwise discharge, reduce, limit or modify the
Secondary Obligor’s obligations under this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents;
(b) Any
waiver, extension, modification, forbearance, delay or other act or omission of
the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, or any failure to proceed promptly or
otherwise against the Primary Obligor, the Secondary Obligor or any
security;
(c) Any
action, omission or circumstance which might increase the likelihood that the
Secondary Obligor may be called upon to perform under this Agreement or the
other Loan Documents or which might affect the rights or remedies of the
Secondary Obligor against the Primary Obligor; or
(d) Any
dealings occurring at any time between the Primary Obligor and the
Administrative Agent or the Lenders, whether relating to the Primary Obligor
Obligations or otherwise.
The
Secondary Obligor hereby acknowledges that, absent this Section 15.03, the
Secondary Obligor might have a defense to its Obligations as a result of one or
more of the foregoing acts, omissions, agreements, waivers or
matters. The Secondary Obligor hereby expressly waives and surrenders
any defense to any liability on account of its Obligations based upon any of
such acts, omissions, agreements, waivers or matters.
15.04 Waivers of
Defenses. The Secondary Obligor waives:
(a) Any
right it may have to require the Administrative Agent or the Lenders to proceed
against the Primary Obligor, proceed against or exhaust any security held from
the Primary Obligor, or pursue any other remedy in the Administrative Agent's or
Lenders’ power to pursue;
(b) Any
defense based on any claim that the Secondary Obligor’s obligations exceed or
are more burdensome than those of the Primary Obligor;
(c) Any
defense based on: (i) any legal disability of the Primary Obligor;
(ii) any release, discharge, modification, impairment or limitation of the
liability of the Primary Obligor to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders from
any cause, whether consented to by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders or
arising by operation of law or from any bankruptcy or other voluntary or
involuntary proceeding, in or out of court, for the adjustment of
debtor-creditor relationships ("Insolvency
Proceeding") and (iii) any rejection or disaffirmance, of the
Primary Obligor Obligations, or any part thereof, or any security held therefor,
in any such Insolvency Proceedings;
(d) Any
defense based on any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent or the
Lenders in any Insolvency Proceeding involving the Primary Obligor, including
any election to have their claim allowed as being secured, partially secured or
unsecured, any extension of credit by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders to
the Primary Obligor in any Insolvency Proceeding and the taking and holding by
the Administrative Agent or the Lenders of any security for any such extension
of credit;
(e) All
presentments, demands for performance, notice of nonperformance, protests,
notices of protest, notices of dishonor, notices of acceptance of the
Obligations and of the existence, creation, or incurring of new or additional
indebtedness, and demands and notices of every kind, but only in Secondary
Obligor’s capacity as Secondary Obligor and not in its capacity as Primary
Obligor or as otherwise provided in the Loan Documents; and
(f) Any
defense based on or arising out of any action of the Administrative Agent or the
Lenders described in Sections 15.02 or
15.03 above,
subject to the provisions of Sections 15.02 and
15.03
above.
15.05 Impairment of Subrogation
Rights.
(a) Upon
an Event of Default by the Primary Obligor, the Administrative Agent in its sole
discretion, without prior notice (except as required by this Agreement or
Applicable Law) to or consent of the Secondary Obligor, may elect to foreclose
either judicially or nonjudicially against any real or personal property
security it may hold for the Primary Obligor Obligations, or accept a transfer
of any such security in lieu of foreclosure, or compromise or adjust the Primary
Obligor Obligations or any part thereof or make any other accommodation with the
Primary Obligor, or exercise any other remedy against the Primary Obligor or any
security. No such action by the Administrative Agent shall release or
limit the liability of the Secondary Obligor, who shall, subject to the
provisions of Section
14.23(a), remain liable for the Obligations after the action, even if the
affect of the action is to deprive the Secondary Obligor of any subrogation
rights, rights of indemnity, or other rights to collect reimbursement from the
Primary Obligor for any sums paid to the Administrative Agent or any Lender,
whether contractual or arising by operation of law or otherwise. The
Secondary Obligor expressly agrees that under no circumstances shall it be
deemed to have any right, title, interest or claim in or to any real or personal
property held by the Administrative Agent or any third party after any
foreclosure or transfer in lieu of foreclosure of any security for the Primary
Obligor Obligations.
(b) Regardless
of whether the Secondary Obligor may have made any payments to the
Administrative Agent or the Lenders, the Secondary Obligor hereby
waives: (i) except as expressly permitted by the Contribution
Agreement, all rights of subrogation, indemnification, contribution and any
other rights to collect reimbursement from the Primary Obligor or any other
party for any sums paid to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders
whether contractual or arising by operation of law (including, without
limitation, under Sections 2847 or 2848 of the California Civil Code, under any
provisions of the United States Bankruptcy Code, or any successor or similar
statutes) or otherwise, (ii) all rights to enforce any remedy that the
Administrative Agent or the Lenders may have against the Primary Obligor, and
(iii) all rights to participate in any security now or later held by the
Administrative Agent or the Lenders for the Primary Obligor
Obligations. The Secondary Obligor further agrees that, to the extent
the foregoing waiver is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be void or
voidable for any reason, any rights of subrogation, reimbursement, contribution
and indemnification the Secondary Obligor may have against the Primary Obligor
or against any collateral or security, shall be junior and subordinate to any
rights the Administrative Agent or the Lenders may have against the Primary
Obligor, and to all right, title and interest the Administrative Agent or the
Lenders may have in any such collateral or security. If any amount
shall be paid to the Secondary Obligor on account of any such subrogation,
reimbursement, contribution or indemnification rights at any time when all the
Primary Obligor Obligations have not been paid in full, such amount shall be
held in trust by the Secondary Obligor and shall forthwith be paid over to the
Administrative Agent to be credited and applied against the Primary Obligor
Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of the
Primary Obligor Documents. The waivers given in this Section 15.05(b)
shall be effective until the Primary Obligor Obligations have been paid and
performed in full.
(c) The
Secondary Obligor understands and acknowledges that, if the Administrative Agent
forecloses judicially or nonjudicially against any real property security for
the Primary Obligor Obligations, that foreclosure could impair or destroy the
ability that the Secondary Obligor may have to seek reimbursement, contribution
or indemnification from the Primary Obligor. The Secondary Obligor
further understands and acknowledges that in the absence of this Section 15.05, such
potential impairment or destruction of the Secondary Obligor’s rights, if any,
may entitle the Secondary Obligor to assert a defense to its liability on
account of the Obligations based on Section 580d of the California Code of Civil
Procedure as interpreted in Union Bank x. Xxxxxxx, 286
Cal.App.2d 40 (1968). The Secondary Obligor freely, irrevocably and
unconditionally: (i) waives and relinquishes that defense and agrees
that the Secondary Obligor will be fully liable for the Obligations even though
the Administrative Agent may foreclose judicially or nonjudicially against any
real property security for the Primary Obligor Obligations; (ii) agrees that the
Secondary Obligor will not assert that defense in any action or proceeding which
the Administrative Agent may commence to enforce the Secondary Obligor’s
liability on account of the Obligations, (iii) acknowledges and agrees that the
rights and defenses waived by the Secondary Obligor hereunder on account of the
Primary Obligor Obligations include any right or defense that the Secondary
Obligor may have or be entitled to assert based upon or arising out of any one
or more of Sections 580a, 580b or 726 of the California Code of Civil Procedure
or Section 2848 of the California Civil Code; and (iv) acknowledges and agrees
that the Lenders are relying on this waiver in extending the credit to the
Primary Obligor and the Secondary Obligor, and that this waiver is a material
part of the consideration which the Administrative Agent and the Lenders are
receiving for providing the Commitments under this Agreement to the Primary
Obligor.
(d) The
Secondary Obligor waives any rights and defenses that are or may become
available to the Secondary Obligor on account of the Primary Obligor Obligations
by reason of Sections 2787 to 2855, inclusive, of the California Civil
Code.
(e) The
Secondary Obligor waives all rights and defenses that the Secondary Obligor may
have because the Primary Obligor Obligations are secured by real
property. This means, among other things, (i) the Administrative
Agent and the Lenders may collect from the Secondary Obligor and pursue any real
or personal property pledged by the Secondary Obligor without first foreclosing
on any real or personal property collateral pledged by the Primary Obligor; (ii)
the amount of the Obligations for which Secondary Obligor is liable may be
reduced only by the price for which that collateral is sold at the foreclosure
sale, even if the collateral is worth more than the sale price; and (iii) the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders may collect from the Secondary Obligor even
if the Administrative Agent, by foreclosing on the real property collateral, has
destroyed any right the Secondary Obligor may have to collect from the Primary
Obligor. This is an unconditional and irrevocable waiver of any
rights and defenses the Secondary Obligor may have because the Primary Obligor
Obligations are secured by real property. These rights and defenses
include, but are not limited to, any rights or defenses based upon Section 580a,
580b, 580d, or 726 of the Code of Civil Procedure. In addition,
Secondary Obligor waives all rights and defenses arising out of an election of
remedies by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, even though that election
of remedies, such as a nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to security for the
guaranteed obligation, has destroyed the Secondary Obligor’s rights of
subrogation and reimbursement against the Primary Obligor by the operation of
Section 580d of the Code of Civil Procedure or otherwise.
15.06 Revival and
Reinstatement. If the Administrative Agent or any Lender is
required to pay, return or restore to the Primary Obligor or any other person
any amounts previously paid on the Primary Obligor Obligations because of any
Insolvency Proceeding of the Primary Obligor, any stop notice or any other
reason, the obligation of the Secondary Obligor shall be reinstated and revived
and the rights of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall continue with
regard to such amounts, all as though they had never been paid.
15.07 The Primary Obligor’s
Financial Condition. The Secondary Obligor assumes full
responsibility for keeping informed of the Primary Obligor’s financial condition
and business operations and all other circumstances affecting the Primary
Obligor's ability to pay and perform its obligations to the Administrative
Agent, and agrees that the Administrative Agent shall have no duty to disclose
to the Secondary Obligor any information which the Administrative Agent may
receive about the Primary Obligor's financial condition, business operations, or
any other circumstances bearing on its ability to perform.
15.08 Intent of
Waivers. The waivers and other provisions of this Article 15
are made by the Secondary Obligor solely for itself and not on behalf of the
Primary Obligor. Furthermore, the waivers and other provisions of
this Article 15 are made by the Secondary Obligor solely in its capacity as a
Secondary Obligor and not in its capacity as a Primary
Obligor. Nothing herein is intended to, or shall, modify, or
constitute a waiver or surrender by the Secondary Obligor of, any right, remedy
or defense that would otherwise be available to the Secondary Obligor on account
of its Obligations in its capacity as a Primary Obligor.
15.09 Borrower’s Joint and
Several. 2007 LLC Borrower, 1995 LLC Borrower and LP Borrower
hereby agree that: (i) 2007 LLC Borrower, 1995 LLC Borrower and LP Borrower
are (subject to Section 14.23 of this
Agreement) jointly and severally liable for all of the obligations of the
Borrower set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; (ii) the
occurrence of any Event of Default shall be an Event of Default by 2007 LLC
Borrower, 1995 LLC Borrower and LP Borrower; (iii) the Obligations which
are secured by all Security Documents are the Obligations of the 2007 LLC
Borrower, 1995 LLC Borrower and LP Borrower, and (iv) each of 2007 LLC Borrower,
1995 LLC Borrower and LP Borrower assumes the obligations of each of 2007 LLC
Borrower, 1995 LLC Borrower and LP Borrower under each and every Loan Document
entered into by any of 2007 LLC Borrower, 1995 LLC Borrower or LP
Borrower.
ARTICLE
XVI
GROUND
LEASE PROVISIONS
16.01 Ground
Lease. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders acknowledge
that a portion of the LP Borrower’s fee interest in the Trillium Project is
subject to the Ground Lease. For all purposes of this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents, the Ground Lease is a “Lease,” an “Approved Lease,”
and a “Major Lease.” Accordingly, notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents
(including, without limitation, the Deed of Trust encumbering the Trillium
Project), the following provisions shall apply with respect to the Ground Leased
Property and the LP Borrower (but not with respect to any other Project
(including the Trillium Project (other than that portion of the Trillium Project
which is the Ground Leased Property) or the 2007 LLC Borrower or 1995 LLC
Borrower):
(i) No
representation or warranty in Article 7 of this
Agreement pertaining to any Person or any Project shall be interpreted as a
representation or warranty concerning (a) the Ground Lessee or the interest of
the Ground Lessee (or any subtenant or licensee of the Ground Leased Property),
(b) title to any property owned by the Ground Lessee, (c) except as to
Borrower’s knowledge, the physical or other condition of the Hilton Hotel
Improvements or the compliance of such Hilton Hotel Improvements, or the Ground
Lessee (or any subtenant or licensee of the Ground Leased Property), with
Applicable Laws or Governmental Approvals, (d) except as to Borrower’s
knowledge, Governmental Approvals pertaining to the Ground Leased Property, or
(e) any Lease other than the Ground Lease.
(ii) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, solely as to the LP
Borrower and the Ground Leased Property, the following representations and
warranties are true and correct as of the date hereof:
(1) The
LP Borrower has not entered into any Lease of the Ground Leased Property other
than the Ground Lease. The LP Borrower is the sole owner and lessor
of landlord's interest under the Ground Lease. The Ground Lease is in
full force and effect and, to LP Borrower’s knowledge, there are no defaults
thereunder by the LP Borrower or by Ground Lessee. To LP Borrower’s
knowledge, there are no conditions that, with the passage of time or the giving
of notice, or both, would constitute defaults thereunder by the LP Borrower or
by Ground Lessee. No right or claim of rescission, offset, abatement,
diminution, defense or counterclaim has been asserted and is pending with
respect to the Ground Lease by the LP Borrower or, to Borrower’s knowledge, by
Ground Lessee. There is no existing condition known to LP Borrower that, with
the passage of time or giving of notice, or both, would result in a right or
claim of rescission, offset, abatement, diminution, defense or counterclaim by
the LP Borrower or, to Borrower’s knowledge, by Ground Lessee under the terms
and provisions of the Ground Lease. No Rent under the Ground Lease has been paid
more than one (1) month in advance of its due date.
(2) The
LP Borrower does not have any material monetary obligations under the Ground
Lease and all material monetary obligations associated with using, managing,
owning, developing and operating the Ground Leased Property (including, without
limitation, all costs associated with utilities, real estate taxes, insurance,
maintenance and repairs) are obligations of Ground Lessee pursuant to the terms
and provisions of the Ground Lease. There does not currently exist any
unperformed non-monetary obligations under the terms and provisions of the
Ground Lease which could reasonably be expected to give Ground Lessee cause to
interrupt the payment of Rent or other monetary obligations of Ground Lessee
pursuant to the Ground Lease, and, to LP Borrower’s knowledge, all work required
to be performed by the LP Borrower under the Ground Lease has been performed as
required and, to Borrower’s knowledge, has been accepted by Ground Lessee. There
is no free rent, and no allowances or abatements are required to be given by the
LP Borrower to Ground Lessee, under the Ground Lease.
(3) There
is no presently effective sale, transfer, assignment, hypothecation or pledge of
the interest of the LP Borrower in the Ground Lease or of the Rent received
pursuant to the Ground Lease, other than in connection with the Loan
Documents. Neither Ground Lessee nor any other Person has a right or
option pursuant to the Ground Lease or otherwise to purchase all or any part of
the Ground Leased Property.
(4) The
Ground Lease has an original term ending on or after the Maturity
Date. The Rent under the Ground Lease is payable without notice or
demand. The LP Borrower has no knowledge of any current fact,
circumstance or condition which is reasonably likely to give Ground Lessee a
right of setoff, recoupment, abatement or reduction under the Ground Lease. The
LP Borrower has not released, in whole or in part, Ground Lessee from any of its
obligations under the Ground Lease. If Ground Lessee sublets its
interest or obligations under the Ground Lease, Ground Lessee shall remain fully
and primarily liable thereunder pursuant to the provisions of the Ground
Lease.
(iii) Notwithstanding
the provisions of Section 9.09(a) of
this Agreement, solely as to the LP Borrower and the Ground Leased Property, the
LP Borrower shall not (i) accept from the Ground Lessee, nor permit the Ground
Lessee to pay, Rent for more than one pay period under the Ground Lease in
advance except for payment in the nature of security for performance of a
tenant’s obligations, escalations, percentage rents, taxes, insurance and other
pass-throughs paid by the Ground Lessee pursuant to the Ground Lease, (ii)
Modify, terminate, or accept surrender of, the Ground Lease, without the prior
written consent of the Administrative Agent, except in accordance with any
existing rights of Modification or termination exercisable by the Ground Lessee
pursuant to the terms of the Ground Lease as in effect on the date hereof, (iii)
except for the Deed of Trust, assign, transfer (except for a Transfer permitted
by this Agreement), pledge, subordinate or mortgage any of the LP Borrower’s
interest in the Ground Lease or in or to any Rent without the prior written
consent of the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders, (iv) waive or
release any nonperformance of any material covenant under the Ground Lease
without the Administrative Agent’s prior written consent, or (v) release any
guarantor from its obligations under any guaranty of the Ground Lease or any
letter of credit or other credit support for a tenant’s performance under the
Ground Lease, except as expressly permitted pursuant to the terms of the Ground
Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary
contained herein, the LP Borrower shall have the right, at its option, to
terminate or accept the surrender of the Ground Lease, and to pursue any other
rights and remedies the LP Borrower may have under the Ground Lease or
Applicable Laws, following an uncured material default by the Ground
Lessee.
(iv) Solely
as to the LP Borrower and the Ground Leased Property, Section 9.12 of this
Agreement (and any similar provision of this Agreement or other Loan Documents
restricting changes in zoning or entitlements, or pertaining to any restrictions
on use), shall be subject to the provisions of the Ground Lease and the rights
of the Ground Lessee thereunder. The LP Borrower shall deliver to the
Administrative Agent notice of any such change promptly after becoming aware of
it.
(v) Solely
as to the LP Borrower and the Ground Leased Property, the provisions of Article 10 of this
Agreement (and any similar provision of this Agreement or other Loan Documents
pertaining to Casualty Events, Insurance Proceeds, Takings, Condemnation Awards
or Restoration) shall be subject to the provisions of the Ground Lease and the
rights of the Ground Lessee thereunder.
