7.28 Appraisals. In addition to the appraisal required by Lender prior to closing of the Loan, an updated appraisal may be obtained at Lender’s expense (unless a default or event of default shall have occurred and be continuing beyond any applicable grace, notice and/or curative period, in which event the appraisal shall be prepared at Borrower’s expense) when requested by Lender (or when required in connection with any extension request of either of the Notes). Such appraisal shall be prepared in accordance with written instructions from Lender by a professional appraiser selected and engaged by Lender. Borrower shall cooperate fully with the appraisal process and shall allow the appraisers reasonable access to the Real Property and any tenants and shall provide all books, records and financial information to Lender and/or such appraiser as is requested.
7.29 Reappraisal of Real Property. Borrower acknowledges that Lender was induced to enter into the subject Loan transaction based upon a projected specific loan-to value ratio of the Real Property (the “Original Loan-to-Value Ratio”). The Original Loan-to-Value Ratio was based upon the appraised value (the “Original Appraised Value”) of the Real Property and the Improvements set forth in the appraisal Borrower submitted to Lender prior to the closing of the subject Loan transaction. If any updated appraisal received by Lender pursuant to the above paragraph reflects that the appraised value of the Real Property has decreased from the Original Appraised Value and if such decrease results in a loan-to-value ratio which is higher than the Original Loan-to-Value Ratio, Borrower shall within thirty (30) days of Lender's written request either (i) direct Lender to obtain an alternate appraisal from an appraiser acceptable to Lender (an “Alternate Appraisal”) and Borrower shall pay to Lender the estimated fee for such Alternate Appraisal at the time of its written direction to Lender hereunder, or (ii) make a principal payment (the “Prepayment”) under the Term Note in an amount sufficient to maintain the Original Loan-to-Value Ratio. Provided, however, if the Alternate Appraisal also reflects that the then appraised value of the Real Property has decreased from the Original Appraised Value and if such decrease results in a loan-to-value ratio which is higher than the Original Loan-to-Value Ratio, Borrower shall within thirty (30) days of Lender's delivery of the Alternate Appraisal to Borrower, pay the required Prepayment to Lender. Such Prepayment shall not entitle Borrower to a release of the Real Property or any portion thereof.
7.30 Regulation U. Borrower is not engaged in the business of extending credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying margin stock (within the meaning of Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System).
7.31 Solvency. None of the transactions contemplated by the Loans, or either of them, will be or have been made with an actual intent to hinder, delay or defraud any present or future creditors of Borrower, and Borrower has received fair and reasonably equivalent value in good faith for the grant of the liens or security interests effected by the Loan Documents. Borrower is currently solvent and will not be rendered insolvent by the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents. Borrower is able to pay its debts as they become due.
7.32 Insurance. Borrower has obtained, and will, without limitation of any additional provisions of the Mortgage, at all times maintain in full force and effect, the insurance coverages required pursuant to Section 11 of the Mortgage, including, without limitation, wind storm coverage and business interruption insurance as provided in the Mortgage.

If Lender undertakes any, some or all of its rights in subsection 8.2, the Borrower agrees that on account thereof (i) Lender may continue to make future advances of the unadvanced portion of the Revolving Loan which need not be in accord with this Agreement in such manner and for such purposes as Lender deems advisable; and (ii) Lender may make additional future advances (the “Additional Future Advances”) in such manner and for such purposes as Lender deems advisable. The Additional Future Advances shall bear interest at the rate specified in the Notes from date of disbursement and the Additional Future Advances and interest thereon shall be payable in accordance with the terms of the Notes. Borrower agrees that all of the advances made under the provisions of this subsection shall be deemed to have been advanced by Lender to Borrower and all such advances shall be a portion of the Loans (or either of them as Lender shall elect). For the purpose of exercising its rights under subsection 8.2(b), the Borrower hereby constitutes and appoints Lender its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full power of substitution and empowers said attorney or attorneys to execute, acknowledge and deliver any instruments and do and perform any acts such as referred to in subsection 8.2(b) in the name and on behalf of the Borrower. The powers vested in said attorney-in-fact are, and shall be deemed to be, coupled with an interest and cannot be revoked.
8.4 Lender Attorney-in-Fact. Without limitation of any of the provisions of Section 8.3 hereof, Borrower hereby constitutes and appoints Lender its true and lawful attorney-in-fact (to be exercised in the Event of Default) with full power of substitution to collect or otherwise realize upon any and all of the collateral for the Loans (or either of them) and to do any and every act which Borrower might do in its own behalf. It is understood and agreed that this power of attorney shall be deemed to be a power coupled with an interest which cannot be revoked. Said attorney-in-fact shall also have power to prosecute and defend all actions or proceedings in connection with the Collateral and to take such action and require such performance as is deemed necessary.

Whenever any payment to be made hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall be included in computing interest, if any, due in connection with such payment.
9.3 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties contained herein or made in writing by Borrower in connection herewith shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents.

9.6 Applicable Law. This Agreement is being delivered in the State of Florida and shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida.
9.7 Headings. The descriptive section headings herein have been inserted for convenience only and shall not be deemed to limit or otherwise affect the construction of any provisions hereof.
9.8 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed simultaneously in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, and it shall not be necessary in making proof of this Agreement to produce or account for more than one such counterpart.
9.9 Remedies Cumulative. All rights and remedies of Lender hereunder are cumulative and concurrent and in addition to any rights and remedies which Lender may have under the laws of Florida or the laws of the United States, and the exercise of any one right or remedy by Lender against Borrower will not deprive Lender of any other right or remedy against Borrower.
9.10 Severability. If any portion of any Loan Document is declared void by any court as illegal or against public policy the remainder of the Loan Document in question shall continue in full effect.
9.11 Waiver. Borrower waives presentment, notice of dishonor and protest as to all obligations under the CREM Note.
9.12 Waiver by Lender. No delay or omission by the Lender in exercising any right hereunder or under any Loan Document or with respect to the Indebtedness shall operate as a waiver of that or any other right, and no single or partial exercise of any right shall preclude the Lender from any other or further exercise of any other right or remedy. The Lender may (but shall not be obligated to ) cure any Event of Default on account of Borrower in any reasonable manner without waiving the Event of Default so cured and without waiving any other prior or subsequent Event of Default by Borrower, and all amounts and expenses incurred by Lender in doing so shall bear interest at the Default Rate. All rights and remedies of the Lender under this Agreement and under the Uniform Commercial Code and other applicable laws shall be deemed cumulative.
9.13 Withholding and Other Tax Liabilities. Lender shall have the right to refuse to make any advances hereunder from time to time unless Borrower shall have given to Lender evidence, reasonably satisfactory to Lender, that Borrower has properly deposited or paid, as required by law, all withholding taxes and all federal, state, city, county or other taxes due up to and including the date of the advance. Upon expiration or termination of the CREM Note, Lender shall be entitled to continue to hold any and all of the collateral until Borrower has given to Lender evidence, satisfactory to Lender, that Borrower has properly deposited or paid, as required by law, all federal withholding taxes due up to and including the date of such expiration or termination. In the event that any lien, assessment or tax liability against Borrower shall arise in favor of any taxing authority and, in the case of a tax liability, not be classified as a Permitted Lien, whether or not notice thereof shall be filed or recorded as may be required by law, Lender shall have the right after five (5) business days' notice to Borrower (but shall not be obligated, nor shall Lender hereby assume the duty) to pay any such lien, assessment or tax liability by virtue of which such charge shall have arisen. In order to pay any such lien, assessment or tax liability, Lender shall not be obliged to wait until said lien, assessment or tax liability is filed before taking such action as hereinabove set forth. Any sum or sums which Lender shall have paid for the discharge of such lien shall be added to Borrower's Indebtedness and shall be paid by Borrower to Lender with interest thereon at the Default Rate, upon demand, and Lender shall be subrogated to all rights of such taxing authority against Borrower.
9.14 Additional Rights of Lender. Lender shall have the further right to commence, appear in or defend any action or proceedings purporting to affect the Land or any portion thereof or its furnishings or equipment or the rights or duties of the parties hereunder or the payment of any of the proceeds of the Loans and, in connection therewith, to pay all necessary expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and any such sums paid or expended by Lender, plus interest thereon at the rate applicable to Advances hereunder (as specified in the Notes), shall be repaid by Borrower to Lender on demand, and shall be secured by the Security Documents.
In the event Lender shall determine that any work or materials from time to time undertaken are not in material conformity with the Plans or ordinances, statutes, permits and regulations, and the Lender’s security is placed in jeopardy thereby, Lender may stop the work and order replacement or correction regardless of whether or not such work or materials have theretofore been incorporated into the Improvements.
For the purpose of exercising the rights granted by this Section, Borrower irrevocably constitutes and appoints Lender its true and lawful attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution, to execute, acknowledge and deliver any instruments and to do and perform any acts in the name and on behalf of Borrower.
Any notices under this Section shall specify the reason Lender is taking any of the acts and actions authorized under this Section.
9.15 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. BORROWER HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREIN OR THEREIN OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENTS (whether verbal or written) OR ACTIONS OF ANY PARTY. IT FURTHER WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO SEEK TO CONSOLIDATE ANY SUCH LITIGATION IN WHICH A JURY TRIAL HAS BEEN WAIVED WITH ANY OTHER LITIGATION IN WHICH A JURY TRIAL CANNOT OR HAS NOT BEEN WAIVED. FURTHER, BORROWER HEREBY CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE OR AGENT OF LENDER, NOR THE LENDER'S COUNSEL, HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT LENDER WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF SUCH LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THIS WAIVER OF RIGHT TO JURY TRIAL PROVISION. BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION ARE A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT TO LENDER'S EXECUTION AND ACCEPTANCE OF THIS AGREEMENT AND/OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS.
