(iii) Lender shall not be liable for any Insurance Premiums thereon or subject to any assessments thereunder; and
(iv) the issuers thereof shall give written notice to Lender if the Policies have not been renewed ten (10) days prior to its expiration.

Borrower shall pay all costs and expenses of such Restoration whether or not such costs and expenses are covered by insurance. Lender may, but shall not be obligated to, make proof of loss if not made promptly by Borrower. In the event of a Casualty where the loss and the applicable Net Proceeds are less than the Restoration Threshold, Borrower may settle and adjust such claim; provided that (a) no Event of Default has occurred and remains outstanding and (b) such adjustment is carried out in a commercially reasonable and timely manner. In the event of a Casualty where the loss or the applicable Net Proceeds is equal to or greater than the Restoration Threshold or if an Event of Default has occurred and remains outstanding, Borrower may settle and adjust such claim only with the prior consent of Lender (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and Lender shall have the opportunity to participate, at Borrower’s cost and expense, in any such adjustments.

Borrower shall, at its cost and expense, diligently prosecute any such litigations or proceedings, and shall consult with Lender, its attorneys and experts, and cooperate with them in the carrying on or defense of any such litigations or proceedings. Lender is hereby irrevocably appointed as Borrower’s attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest, with exclusive power during the continuation of an Event of Default to collect, receive and retain any Award and to make any compromise or settlement in connection with any Condemnation. Notwithstanding any Condemnation, Borrower shall continue to pay the Debt at the time and in the manner provided for in this Agreement, the Note and the other Loan Documents. Lender shall not be limited to the interest paid on the Award by any Governmental Authority but shall be
77
entitled to receive interest at the rate or rates provided herein or in the Note. If any portion of the Property is taken by any Governmental Authority, Borrower shall promptly commence and diligently prosecute to completion the Restoration of the Property and otherwise comply with the provisions of Section 5.3 hereof. If the Property is sold, through foreclosure or otherwise, prior to the receipt by Lender of the Award, Lender shall have the right, whether or not a deficiency judgment on the Note shall have been sought, recovered or denied, to receive the Award or a portion thereof sufficient to pay the Debt in full.
5.2.3. Casualty Proceeds. Notwithstanding the last sentence of Section 5.1.1(a)(iii) above, and provided that no Event of Default has occurred and remains outstanding, proceeds received by Lender on account of business or rental interruption or other loss of income insurance specified in Section 5.1.1(a)(iii) above with respect to any Casualty shall be deposited by Lender into the Cash Management Account (in installments from time to time, if applicable) to the extent such proceeds (or a portion thereof) reflects a replacement for lost Rents for the relevant period, as determined by Lender in good faith. All other such proceeds shall be held by Lender and disbursed in accordance with Section 5.3 hereof.

(v) Leases requiring payment of annual rent equal to not less than eighty percent (80%) of the Gross Income from Operations received by Borrower during the twelve (12) month period immediately preceding the Casualty or Condemnation shall remain in full force and effect during and after the completion of the Restoration without abatement of rent beyond the time required for Restoration, notwithstanding the occurrence of such Casualty or Condemnation;
(vi) unless prohibited by law, Borrower shall commence the Restoration (which, for purposes hereof, shall include the removal of debris and the application for permits required pursuant to Legal Requirements) as soon as reasonably practicable (but in no event later than sixty (60) days after the occurrence of such Casualty or Condemnation) and shall diligently pursue the same to satisfactory completion;

(xvi) Lender shall be satisfied that, upon the completion of the Restoration, the Loan-to-Value Ratio shall not be greater than the Loan-to-Value Ratio as of the Closing Date;
(xvii) Borrower shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Lender a signed, detailed budget approved in writing by Borrower’s architect or engineer stating all of the costs and expenses of completing the Restoration, which budget shall be reasonably acceptable to Lender; and
(xviii) the Net Proceeds, together with any cash or cash equivalent deposited by Borrower with Lender, are sufficient, in Lender’s reasonable judgment, to pay for all costs and expenses of the Restoration in full.
(b) The Net Proceeds shall be paid directly to Lender and held by Lender in an interest-bearing account and, until disbursed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5.3.2, shall constitute additional security for the Obligations. The Net Proceeds (including all interest earned thereon) shall be disbursed by Lender to, or as directed by, Borrower from time to time during the course of the Restoration, upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to Lender that (i) all requirements set forth in Section 5.3.2(a) have been satisfied, (ii) all materials installed and work and labor performed (except to the extent that they are to be paid for out of the requested disbursement) in connection with the Restoration have been (or will, with the application of the requested disbursement of Net Proceeds, be) paid for in full, and (iii) 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 or encumbrances of any nature whatsoever on the Property arising out of the Restoration which have not either been fully bonded by a surety company acceptable to Lender and the Rating Agencies to the satisfaction of Lender and discharged of record or, in the alternative, fully insured to the satisfaction of Lender by the title insurance company issuing the Title Insurance Policy.
(c) All plans and specifications in connection with the Restoration shall be subject to the prior approval of Lender and an independent architect or engineer selected by Lender (the “Casualty Consultant”), which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. The plans and specifications shall require that the Restoration be completed in a first-class workmanlike manner at least equivalent to the quality and character of the original work in the Improvements so that, upon completion thereof, the Property shall be at least equal in value and general utility to the Property prior to the Casualty or Condemnation, as applicable (it being understood, however, that (i) Borrower shall not be obligated to restore the Property to the precise condition of the Property prior to such Casualty or Condemnation, as applicable, and (ii) in the case of a partial Condemnation, the Restoration shall be done to the extent reasonably practicable after taking into account the consequences of such partial Condemnation; provided
80
that the Property shall be restored, to the extent reasonably practicable, to be of at least equal value and of substantially the same character as prior to the Casualty or Condemnation, as applicable). Borrower shall restore all Improvements such that when they are fully restored and/or repaired, such Improvements and their contemplated use fully comply with all applicable Legal Requirements. The identity of the contractors, subcontractors and materialmen engaged in the Restoration, as well as the contracts under which they have been engaged, shall be subject to the prior approval of Lender and the Casualty Consultant, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. All costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with recovering, holding and disbursing the Net Proceeds for the Restoration (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses and the Casualty Consultant’s fees and disbursements) shall be paid by Borrower.
(d) In no event shall Lender be obligated to make disbursements of the Net Proceeds in excess of an amount equal to the costs and expenses actually incurred from time to time for work in place as part of the Restoration, as certified by the Casualty Consultant, less the Casualty Retainage. The term “Casualty Retainage” shall mean, as to each contractor, subcontractor or materialman engaged in the Restoration, an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the costs and expenses actually incurred for work in place as part of the Restoration, as certified by the Casualty Consultant, until the Restoration has been completed. The Casualty Retainage shall in no event, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above in this Section 5.3.2(d), be less than the amount actually held back by Borrower from contractors, subcontractors and materialmen engaged in the Restoration. The Casualty Retainage shall not be released until the Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender that the Restoration has been completed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5.3.2 and that all approvals necessary for the reoccupancy and use of the Property have been obtained from all applicable Governmental Authorities, and Lender receives evidence satisfactory to Lender that the costs and expenses of the Restoration have been paid in full or will be paid in full out of the Casualty Retainage; provided, however, that Lender will release the portion of the Casualty Retainage being held with respect to any contractor, subcontractor or materialman engaged in the Restoration as of the date upon which (i) the Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender that such contractor, subcontractor or materialman has satisfactorily completed all work and has supplied all materials in accordance with the provisions of the contractor’s, subcontractor’s or materialman’s contract (ii) such contractor, subcontractor or materialman delivers lien waivers and evidence of payment in full of all sums due to such contractor, subcontractor or materialman as may be reasonably requested by Lender or by the title insurance company issuing the Title Insurance Policy, and (iii) Lender receives an endorsement to the Title Insurance Policy insuring the continued priority of the Lien of the Security Instrument and evidence of payment of any premium payable in connection with such endorsement. If required by Lender, the release of any such portion of the Casualty Retainage shall be approved by the surety company, if any, which has issued a payment or performance bond with respect to the applicable contractor, subcontractor or materialman.
(e) Lender shall not be obligated to make disbursements of the Net Proceeds more frequently than once in any calendar month.
(f) If at any time the Net Proceeds or the undisbursed balance thereof shall not, in the opinion of Lender in consultation with the Casualty Consultant, be sufficient to pay in full the balance of the costs and expenses which are estimated by the Casualty Consultant to be
81
incurred in connection with the completion of the Restoration, Borrower shall deposit the deficiency (the “Net Proceeds Deficiency”) with Lender before any further disbursement of the Net Proceeds shall be made. The Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited with Lender shall be held by Lender and shall be disbursed for costs and expenses actually incurred in connection with the Restoration on the same terms and conditions applicable to the disbursement of the Net Proceeds, and until so disbursed pursuant to this Section 5.3.2 shall constitute additional security for the Obligations.
(g) The excess, if any, of the Net Proceeds and the remaining balance, if any, of the Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited with Lender after (i) the Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender that the Restoration has been completed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5.3.2 and (ii) the receipt by Lender of evidence reasonably satisfactory to Lender that all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the Restoration have been paid in full shall be remitted by Lender to Borrower, provided that no Event of Default has occurred and remains outstanding; provided, however, that, in the case of a Condemnation, the amount returned to Borrower in accordance with this Section 5.3.2(g) shall not exceed the amount of the Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited by Borrower with the balance being applied to the Debt in the manner provided for in Section 5.3.2(h) hereof.
(h) All Net Proceeds not required (i) to be made available for the Restoration or (ii) to be returned to Borrower as excess Net Proceeds pursuant to Section 5.3.2(g) hereof may be retained and applied by Lender toward the payment of the Debt, whether or not then due and payable, in such order, proportion and priority as Lender in its sole discretion shall deem proper, or, at the discretion of Lender, the same may be paid, either in whole or in part, to Borrower for such purposes as Lender shall approve in its sole discretion.
(i) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.3, if the Loan is included in a REMIC Trust and, immediately following a release of any portion of the Lien of the Security Instrument following a Casualty or Condemnation (but taking into account any proposed Restoration of the remaining Property), the ratio of the unpaid principal balance of the Loan to the value of the remaining Property is greater than 125% (such value to be determined, in Lender’s sole discretion, by any commercially reasonable method permitted to a REMIC Trust), the principal balance of the Loan must be paid down by the least of the following amounts: (i) the Net Proceeds, (ii) the fair market value of the released property at the time of the release, or (iii) an amount such that the loan-to-value ratio of the Loan (as so determined by Lender) does not increase after the release, unless Lender receives an opinion of counsel that if such amount is not paid, the applicable Securitization will not fail to maintain its status as a REMIC Trust as a result of the related release of such portion of the Lien of the Security Instrument. If and to the extent the preceding sentence applies, only such amount of the Net Proceeds, if any, in excess of the amount required to pay down the principal balance of the Loan may be released for purposes of Restoration or released to Borrower as otherwise expressly provided in this Section 5.3.

Xxxx controls Borrower or (2) Longwing Incorporated controls Borrower and the foregoing clause (h) remains satisfied, (y) Transfers of any direct or indirect interests in Borrower among the Sponsors (or their subsidiaries having a direct or indirect interest in Borrower), provided the foregoing clauses (a), (c), and (e) through (h) remain satisfied, or (z) Transfers of all of Longwing Incorporated’s direct or indirect equity interest in Borrower, provided (I) the foregoing clauses (a), (b)(i), (b)(ii), (c) and (e) through (g) remain satisfied, (II) one or more Swig Family Entities own twelve and one-half percent (12.5%) or more of the direct or indirect interest in Borrower, (III) the transferee shall have caused a replacement guarantor reasonably acceptable to Lender to execute and deliver a new guarantee substantially similar to the Longwing Guaranty executed and delivered on the date hereof by Longwing Guarantor in connection with the Loan, (IV) neither the transferee nor the replacement guarantor shall have interfered in bad faith with the exercise by any lender of its remedies in connection with a default with respect to any Indebtedness or defaulted under its obligations which caused a foreclosure with respect to any Indebtedness in a manner which is not reasonably acceptable to Lender; and (V) as of the date of such Transfer, the transferee (and/or such transferee’s shareholders, general partners or managing members that, directly or indirectly, (i) own fifty-one percent (51%) or more of legal, beneficial and economic interests in such transferee and (ii) are in control of such transferee, as of the date of such Transfer), must have an aggregate net worth (exclusive of the Property) and liquidity reasonably satisfactory to Lender (it being agreed that a net worth of not less than $100,000,000 shall be satisfactory to Lender).

(a) Lender shall have the right (i) to sell or otherwise transfer the Loan as a whole loan or sell or otherwise transfer any portion thereof or any interest therein, (ii) to sell participation interests in the Loan, or (iii) to securitize the Loan or any portion thereof or any interest therein in one or more private or public securitizations. (The transactions referred to in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) are each hereinafter referred to as a “Secondary Market Transaction” and the transaction referred to in clause (iii) shall hereinafter be referred to as a “Securitization.” Any certificates, notes or other securities issued in connection with a Securitization are hereinafter referred to as “Securities.”) Within a reasonable period of time following any Secondary Market Transaction whereby the party acting as “Lender” hereunder shall have been replaced by a successor entity, Lender shall provide notice to Borrower of such Secondary Market Transaction, which notice shall include the identity of such successor entity acting as “Lender” hereunder and such successor entity’s address for notices hereunder. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall Lender sell or otherwise transfer all or any portion of the Loan or sell any participation interests in the Loan to any Prohibited Lender Entity without the consent of Borrower; provided, however, that the foregoing prohibition shall not in any way restrict the purchase of Securities in connection with a Securitization of the Loan (or any portion thereof or interest therein) by a Prohibited Lender Entity and no such purchase by any Prohibited Lender Entity shall constitute a violation of the provisions of this Agreement.
(b) If requested by Lender, Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts to assist Lender in satisfying the market standards to which Lender customarily adheres or which may be required in the marketplace, by the Rating Agencies or by any Legal Requirements in connection with any Secondary Market Transactions (including any Exchange Act Filings or any report that is required to be made “available” to holders of the Securities under Regulation AB or applicable Legal Requirements), including, without limitation, to:
(i) (A) provide updated financial and other information with respect to the Property, the business operated at the Property, Borrower, Guarantor, any Affiliate of Borrower or Guarantor and Manager (including, without limitation, the information set forth on Schedule V hereto), (B) provide updated budgets and rent rolls (including itemized percentage of floor area occupied and percentage of aggregate base rent for each Tenant) relating to the Property and (C) provide updated appraisals, market studies, environmental audits, reviews and reports (Phase I’s and, if appropriate, Phase II’s), property condition reports and other due diligence investigations of the Property (the information required under clauses (A), (B) and (C) shall hereinafter be referred to collectively as the “Updated Information”), together with appropriate verification of the Updated Information through letters of auditors, certificates of third party providers or opinions of counsel reasonably acceptable to Lender and the Rating Agencies.
101
(ii) provide opinions of counsel, which may be relied upon by Lender, any trustee in a Securitization and the NRSROs and their respective counsel, agents and representatives, as to bankruptcy non-consolidation, fraudulent conveyance, and “true sale” or any other opinion customary in Secondary Market Transactions or required by the Rating Agencies with respect to the Property, Borrower, Guarantor and any Affiliate of Borrower or Guarantor, which counsel and opinions shall be satisfactory to Lender and the Rating Agencies;
(iii) provide, and cause to be provided, updated representations and warranties made in the Loan Documents and make, and cause to be made, such additional representations and warranties as may be requested by Lender or the Rating Agencies and consistent with the facts covered by such representations and warranties as they exist on the date thereof;
(iv) subject in all cases to the applicable provisions of Section 9.3 hereof, execute, and cause to be executed, such amendments, replacements or other modifications to Borrower’s Organizational Documents or the Loan Documents as may be reasonably requested by Lender and/or the Rating Agencies or otherwise to effect the Secondary Market Transactions.
(v) attend management meetings, provide access to the Property and conduct tours of the Property; and
(vi) provide, and cause to be provided, certificates or other evidence of reliance satisfactory to Lender and the Rating Agencies with respect to any information or third party reports obtained in connection with the origination of the Loan or any Updated Information from Borrower, Guarantor, any Affiliate of Borrower or Guarantor, Manager and any accountants, appraisers, engineers, environmental assessment experts and other experts or third party providers of such information, reports or Updated Information.
(c) If, at the time one or more Disclosure Documents are being prepared for or in connection with a Securitization, Lender reasonably expects that Borrower alone or Borrower and one or more Affiliates of Borrower (including any guarantor or other Person that is directly or indirectly committed by contract or otherwise to make payments on all or a part of the Loan) collectively, or the Property alone or the Property and Related Properties collectively, will be a Significant Obligor, Borrower shall furnish to Lender upon request the following financial information:
(i) if Lender expects that the principal amount of the Loan together with any Related Loans, as of the cut off date for such Securitization, may equal or exceed ten percent (10%) (but less than twenty percent (20%)) of the aggregate principal amount of all mortgage loans included or expected to be included in the Securitization, net operating income for the Property and the Related Properties for the most recent Fiscal Year and interim period as required under Item 1112(b)(1) of Regulation AB (or, if the Loan is not treated as a non-recourse loan under Instruction 3 for Item 1101(k) of Regulation AB,
102
selected financial data meeting the requirements and covering the time periods specified in Item 301 of Regulation S-K and Item 1112(b)(1) of Regulation AB), or
(ii) if Lender expects that the principal amount of the Loan together with any Related Loans, as of the cut off date for such Securitization, may equal or exceed twenty percent (20%) of the aggregate principal amount of all mortgage loans included or expected to be included in the Securitization, the financial statements required under Item 1112(b)(2) of Regulation AB (which includes, but may not be limited to, a balance sheet with respect to the entity that Lender determines to be a Significant Obligor for the two most recent Fiscal Years and applicable interim periods, meeting the requirements of Rule 3-01 of Regulation S-X, and statements of income and statements of cash flows with respect to the Property for the three most recent Fiscal Years and applicable interim periods, meeting the requirements of Rule 3-02 of Regulation S-X (or if Lender determines that the Property is the Significant Obligor and the Property (other than properties that are hotels, nursing homes, or other properties that would be deemed to constitute a business and not real estate under Regulation S-X or other legal requirements) was acquired from an unaffiliated third party and the other conditions set forth in Rule 3-14 of Regulation S-X have been met, the financial statements required by Rule 3-14 of Regulation S-X)).
(d) Further, if requested by Lender, Borrower shall, promptly upon Lender’s request, furnish to Lender financial data or financial statements meeting the requirements of Item 1112(b)(1) or (2) of Regulation AB, as specified by Lender, for any tenant of the Property if, in connection with a Securitization, Lender reasonably expects there to be, as of the cut-off date for such Securitization, a concentration with respect to such tenant or group of Affiliated tenants within all of the mortgage loans included or expected to be included in the Securitization such that such tenant or group of Affiliated tenants would constitute a Significant Obligor. Borrower shall furnish to Lender, if requested by Lender, and reasonably required in connection with a Securitization as reasonably determined by Lender, financial data or financial statements with respect to such tenants meeting the requirements of Item 1112(b)(1) or (2) of Regulation AB, as specified by Lender, but only for so long as such entity or entities are a Significant Obligor and either (i) Exchange Act Filings in connection with or relating to the Securitization are required to be made under applicable Legal Requirements or (ii) comparable information is required to otherwise be “available” to holders of the Securities under Regulation AB or applicable Legal Requirements.
(e) If Lender determines that Borrower alone or Borrower and one or more Affiliates of any Borrower collectively, or the Property alone or the Property and Related Properties collectively, are a Significant Obligor, then Borrower shall furnish to Lender, if requested by Lender, and reasonably required in connection with a Securitization as reasonably determined by Lender, selected financial data or financial statements meeting the requirements of Item 1112(b)(1) or (2) of Regulation AB, as specified by Lender, but only for so long as such entity or entities are a Significant Obligor and either (i) Exchange Act Filings are required to be made under applicable Legal Requirements or (ii) comparable information is required to otherwise be “available” to holders of the Securities under Regulation AB or applicable Legal Requirements.
103
(f) Any financial data or financial statements provided pursuant to this Section 9.1 shall be furnished to Lender within the following time periods:
(i) with respect to information requested in connection with the preparation of Disclosure Documents for a Securitization, within ten (10) Business Days after notice from Lender; and
(ii) with respect to information required under Sections 9.1(d) and (e) above, (A) not later than thirty (30) days after the end of each fiscal quarter of Borrower and (B) not later than seventy-five (75) days after the end of each Fiscal Year of Borrower.
(g) All financial data and financial statements provided by Borrower hereunder pursuant to Sections 9.1(c), (d), (e) and (f) hereof shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP, and shall meet the requirements of Regulation S-K or Regulation S-X, as applicable, Regulation AB, and any and all other applicable Legal Requirements. All financial statements relating to a Fiscal Year shall be audited by independent accountants of Borrower reasonably acceptable to Lender in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K, as applicable, Regulation AB, and all other applicable Legal Requirements, shall be accompanied by the manually executed report of the independent accountants thereon, which report shall meet the requirements of Regulation S-K or Regulation S-X, as applicable, Regulation AB, and all other applicable Legal Requirements, and shall be further accompanied by a manually executed consent of the independent accountants, in form and substance acceptable to Lender, to the inclusion of such financial statements in any Disclosure Document, any Exchange Act Filing or any report that is required to be made “available” to holders of the Securities under Regulation AB or applicable Legal Requirements and to the use of the name of such independent accountants and the reference to such independent accountants as “experts” in any Disclosure Document, any Exchange Act Filing or any report that is required to be made “available” to holders of the Securities under Regulation AB or applicable Legal Requirements, all of which shall be provided at the same time as the related financial statements are required to be provided. All other financial data and financial statements (audited or unaudited) provided by Borrower shall be accompanied by an Officer’s Certificate which shall state that such financial data and financial statements meet the requirements set forth in the first sentence of this paragraph.
(h) In the event Lender reasonably determines, in connection with a Securitization, that financial statements and financial data required in order to comply with Regulation AB or any amendment, modification or replacement thereto or any other Legal Requirements are other than as provided herein, then notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 9.1, Lender may request, and Borrower shall promptly provide, such other financial statements and financial data as Lender reasonably determines to be necessary or appropriate for such compliance.
(i) Without limiting the generality of Section 9.1(h) above, if reasonably requested by Lender, Borrower shall promptly provide Lender with any financial statements or financial, statistical, operating or other information as Lender shall reasonably determine to be required pursuant to Regulation AB or any amendment, modification or replacement thereto or any other Legal Requirements in connection with any Disclosure Document, any Exchange Act
104
Filing or any report that is required to be made “available” to holders of the Securities under Regulation AB or applicable Legal Requirements or as shall otherwise be reasonably requested by Lender.
(j) Borrower agrees that Lender may disclose any information relating to Borrower, its Affiliates, the Property or any aspect of the Loan (including information provided by or on behalf of Borrower or any of its Affiliates to Lender) to the parties requesting such information and, if applicable, the NRSROs in connection with any Secondary Market Transaction. Borrower also understands that the findings and conclusions of any third-party due diligence report obtained by Lender or other Securitization Indemnified Parties may be made publicly available if required, and in the manner prescribed, by Section 15E(s)(4)(A) of the Exchange Act, any rules promulgated thereunder or any other applicable Legal Requirements.
(k) In connection with Lender’s efforts to effect any Secondary Market Transaction, all reasonable out-of pocket third party costs and expenses actually incurred by Borrower, Guarantor or their respective Affiliates pursuant to this Section 9.1 (including, without limitation, the fees and expenses of the Rating Agencies) in connection with any such Secondary Market Transaction shall be reimbursed by Lender, and Borrower shall not be responsible for any of Lender’s costs incurred in connection with any such Secondary Market Transaction.
Section 9.2. Securitization Indemnification. (a) Borrower understands that information provided to Lender by Borrower or its agents, counsel and representatives may be included in Disclosure Documents in connection with a Securitization and may also be included in filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and may be made available to investors or prospective investors in the Securities, the NRSROs and other advisory and service providers relating to a Securitization. In the event that any Disclosure Document is required to be revised prior to the sale of all Securities in connection with a Securitization, Borrower will cooperate with Lender (or, if applicable, the holder of the applicable interest in the Loan) in updating the Disclosure Document by providing all current information necessary to keep the Disclosure Document accurate and complete in all material respects.
(b) Borrower shall certify, in connection with any Disclosure Document provided to Borrower by Lender in connection with a Securitization, that Borrower has examined the provisions of such Disclosure Document, reasonably designated in writing by Lender for Borrower’s review and pertaining to Borrower, Guarantor, Manager and/or the Property (which designation shall in no event include the descriptions or summaries of the terms and conditions of the Loan Documents) and any special risks or considerations relating thereto (but not including risks or special considerations relating to local or federal law) (the “Covered Disclosure Information”) and such Covered Disclosure Information does not (except to the extent noted by Borrower in writing to Lender if Borrower does not agree with the statements therein), as of the date of such certification, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements made, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify Lender, UBSRESI, any Affiliate of UBSRESI that has filed any registration statement relating to the Securitization or has acted as the issuer, the sponsor or depositor in connection
105
with a Securitization, any Affiliate of UBSRESI that acts as an underwriter, placement agent or initial purchaser of the Securities issued in connection with a Securitization, any other issuers, depositors, underwriters, placement agents or initial purchasers of the Securities issued in connection with a Securitization, and each of their respective directors, officers, partners, employees, representatives, agents and Affiliates, and each Person that controls any such Person within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (collectively, the “Securitization Indemnified Parties”) for any liabilities, obligations, actual losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, costs and expenses (collectively, the “Securitization Indemnification Liabilities”) to which any Securitization Indemnified Party may become subject insofar as the Securitization Indemnification Liabilities arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Covered Disclosure Information or arise out of, or are based upon, the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated in the Covered Disclosure Information or necessary in order to make the statements in the Covered Disclosure Information, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading and (ii) a breach of the representations and warranties made by Borrower in Section 3.1.34 of this Agreement (except that (A) Borrower’s obligation to indemnify in respect of any information contained in a Disclosure Document that is derived in part from information provided by Borrower or any Affiliate of Borrower and in part from information provided by others unrelated to or not employed or engaged by Borrower shall be limited to any untrue statement or omission of material fact therein known to Borrower that results directly or indirectly from an error in any information provided (or which should have been provided) by Borrower and (B) Borrower shall have no responsibility under this Section 9.2 for (x) any untrue statements contained in any Disclosure Document to which Borrower or its authorized representative have objected to in writing to Lender so long as such objection is not inconsistent with information furnished to Lender by or on behalf of Borrower in connection with the origination of the Loan or (y) numbers which have been submitted by Borrower and adjusted by any of the Securitization Indemnified Parties from those submitted by Borrower, to the extent of such adjustment). Borrower also agrees to reimburse each Securitization Indemnified Party, within ten (10) Business Days after request therefor, for any legal or other costs and expenses reasonably incurred by such Securitization Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending the Securitization Indemnification Liabilities. Borrower’s liability under this paragraph will be limited to any such Securitization Indemnification Liability that arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or omission made therein in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to Lender by or on behalf of Borrower in connection with the preparation of the Disclosure Documents or in connection with the underwriting or closing of the Loan (including, without limitation, financial statements of Borrower, operating statements and rent rolls with respect to the Property). This indemnity provision will be in addition to any obligation or liability which Borrower may otherwise have.
(c) In connection with Exchange Act Filings and information therein or other reports containing comparable information that are required to be made “available” to holders of the Securities under Regulation AB or applicable Legal Requirements, as it relates to the Property, Borrower, Guarantor, any Affiliate of Borrower or Guarantor, Manager or any other aspect of the Loan, Borrower agrees to (i) indemnify the Securitization Indemnified Parties for Securitization Indemnification Liabilities to which any Securitization Indemnified Party may become subject insofar as the Securitization Indemnification Liabilities arise out of, or are based
106
upon, an untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon, and in conformity with, information furnished to Lender by or on behalf of Borrower in connection with the preparation of the Disclosure Document, in connection with the underwriting or closing of the Loan or any of the reports, statements or other information furnished by or on behalf of Borrower pursuant tothe terms of this Agreement, including financial statements of Borrower, operating statements and rent rolls with respect to the Property and (ii) reimburse each Securitization Indemnified Party, within ten (10) Business Days of demand therefor, for any legal or other costs and expenses reasonably incurred by such Securitization Indemnified Party in connection with defending or investigating the Securitization Indemnification Liabilities.
(d)Promptly after receipt by a Securitization Indemnified Party of notice of any claim or the commencement of any action or suit, such Securitization Indemnified Party shall, if a claim for indemnification in respect thereof is to be made against Borrower, notify Borrower in writing of the claim or the commencement of such action or suit; provided, however, that the failure to notify Borrower shall not relieve Borrower from any liability which it may have under the indemnification provisions of this Section 9.2 except to the extent that it has been materially prejudiced by such failure and, provided further that the failure to notify Borrower shall not relieve Borrower from any liability which it may have to any Securitization Indemnified Party otherwise than under the provisions of this Section 9.2. If any such claim, action or suit shall be brought against any Securitization Indemnified Party, and it shall notify Borrower thereof, Borrower shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it wishes, assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Securitization Indemnified Party. After notice from Borrower to the applicable Securitization Indemnified Party of Borrower’s election to assume the defense of such claim, action or suit, Borrower shall not be liable to such Securitization Indemnified Party for any legal or other costs and expenses subsequently incurred by such Securitization Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof except as provided in the following sentence; provided, however, if the defendants in any such action or suit include both Borrower, on the one hand, and one or more Securitization Indemnified Parties on the other hand, and a Securitization Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded that there are legal defenses available to it and/or other Securitization Indemnified Parties that are different or in addition to those available to Borrower, the Securitization Indemnified Party or Parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to assert such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such action or suit on behalf of such Securitization Indemnified Party or Parties. Borrower shall not be liable for the reasonable costs and expenses of more than one (1) such separate counsel unless a Securitization Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or additional to those available to another Securitization Indemnified Party. The Securitization Indemnified Party shall instruct its counsel to maintain reasonably detailed billing records for reasonable fees and disbursements for which such Securitization Indemnified Party is seeking or intends to seek reimbursement hereunder and shall submit copies of such detailed billing records to substantiate that such counsel’s reasonable fees and disbursements are related solely to the defense of a claim for which Borrower is required hereunder to indemnify such Securitization Indemnified Party.
(e) Without the prior written consent of the applicable Securitization Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), Borrower shall not settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any pending or
107
threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification may be sought hereunder (whether or not any Securitization Indemnified Party is an actual or potential party to such claim, action, suit or proceeding) unless Borrower shall have given the applicable Securitization Indemnified Party reasonable prior notice thereof and shall have obtained an unconditional release of each Securitization Indemnified Party from all Securitization Indemnification Liabilities arising out of or relating to such claim, action, suit or proceeding. As long as Borrower has complied with its obligations to defend and indemnify hereunder, Borrower shall not be liable for any settlement made by any Securitization Indemnified Party without the consent of Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).
(f) Borrower agrees that if any indemnification or reimbursement sought pursuant to this Section 9.2 is finally judicially determined to be unavailable for any reason or is insufficient to hold any Securitization Indemnified Party harmless (with respect only to the Securitization Indemnification Liabilities that are the subject of this Section 9.2), then Borrower, on the one hand, and such Securitization Indemnified Party, on the other hand, shall contribute to the Securitization Indemnification Liabilities for which such indemnification or reimbursement is held unavailable or is insufficient: (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits to Borrower, on the one hand, and such Securitization Indemnified Party, on the other hand, from the transactions to which such indemnification or reimbursement relates; or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative faults of Borrower, on the one hand, and all Securitization Indemnified Parties, on the other hand, as well as any other equitable considerations. In determining the amount of contribution to which the respective parties are entitled, the following factors shall be considered: (A) the Securitization Indemnified Parties and Borrower’s relative knowledge and access to information concerning the matter with respect to which the claim was asserted; (B) the opportunity to correct and prevent any statement or omission; and (C) any other equitable considerations appropriate in the circumstances. Lender and Borrower hereby agree that it would not be equitable if the amount of such contribution were determined by pro rata or per capita allocation. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 9.2, (I) no Person found liable for a fraudulent misrepresentation shall be entitled to contribution from any other Person who is not also found liable for such fraudulent misrepresentation, and (II) Borrower agrees that in no event shall the amount to be contributed by the Securitization Indemnified Parties collectively pursuant to this Section 9.2(f) exceed the amount of the fees actually received by the Securitization Indemnified Parties in connection with the closing of the Loan.
(g) Borrower agrees that the indemnification, contribution and reimbursement obligations set forth in this Section 9.2 shall apply whether or not any Securitization Indemnified Party is a formal party to any claim, action, suit or proceeding. Borrower further agrees that the Securitization Indemnified Parties are intended third party beneficiaries under this Section 9.2.
(h) The liabilities and obligations of Borrower and the Securitization Indemnified Parties under this Section 9.2 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the satisfaction and discharge of the Debt.
Section 9.3. Limitation on Obligations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article IX or any other provision of this Agreement (other than Sections 11.29 and 11.30
108
hereof) or any other Loan Document, but subject to Sections 11.29 and 11.30 hereof, none of Borrower, Guarantor or Manager shall be obligated to agree to any modification of the Note, this Agreement, the Security Instrument or the other Loan Documents, or of their respective Organizational Documents, or to take any other action, that would, in the aggregate (a) change the outstanding principal balance of the Loan; (b) change the weighted average interest rate (except that the weighted average interest rate may subsequently change due to involuntary prepayments or if an Event of Default shall occur); (c) increase any scheduled amortization of the principal amount of the Loan; (d) shorten the Maturity Date of the Loan, or provide for other or additional circumstances or events upon which Lender will be entitled to accelerate the maturity of the Loan; (e) alter in any way the transfer restrictions relating to direct or indirect interests in the Property (including any equity interests in the direct or indirect owners of Borrower); (f) affect the limitations on recourse against Borrower and Guarantor and any other exculpated parties under the Loan Documents; (g) increase the amounts of reserves or escrows; (h) affect the compensation payable to Manager; (i) affect Borrower’s right to repay or prepay the Loan; (j) affect Borrower’s right to enter into, modify or terminate Leases or contracts; (k) reduce the materiality thresholds (whether expressed in dollars or otherwise) appearing in any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, including those relating to Alterations, casualty and condemnation; (l) increase any servicing or similar fee required to be paid or reimbursed by Borrower; (m) add additional Events of Default, or shorten any grace or cure period applicable to an existing Event of Default; (n) require Borrower or any other Person (i) to provide additional collateral security, credit support, indemnities or guaranties for or in respect of the Loan or (ii) to increase or expand the scope or extent of any existing security, credit support, indemnity or guaranty; (o) violate or cause the violation of any existing agreement to which Borrower or any of its Affiliates is a party or any applicable Legal Requirements; or (p) materially increase any obligation or materially decrease any rights of Borrower, Guarantor, Manager or any Affiliate of the foregoing pursuant to any of the Loan Documents.

(xii) if Borrower shall continue to be in Default under any of the terms, covenants or provisions set forth in Section 9.1, Section 11.29 or Section 11.30 hereof, or fails to cooperate with Lender in connection with a Secondary Market Transaction in accordance with the terms, covenants and provisions set forth in Section 9.1 hereof, for three (3) Business Days after notice to Borrower from Lender;

(xvii) intentionally omitted;
(xviii) if a material default has occurred and continues beyond any applicable cure period under the Management Agreement and such default permits Manager thereunder to terminate or cancel the Management Agreement;
(xix) intentionally omitted;
(xx) intentionally omitted;
(xxi) if Borrower shall continue to be in Default under any of the other terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement not specified in clauses (i) to (xx) above, for ten (10) Business Days after notice to Borrower from Lender, in the case of any Default which can be cured by the payment of a sum of money, or for thirty (30) days after notice from Lender in the case of any other Default; provided, however, that if such non-monetary Default is susceptible of cure but cannot reasonably be cured within such thirty (30) day period and provided further that Borrower 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 Borrower in the exercise of due diligence to cure such Default, such additional period not to exceed ninety (90) days; or
(xxii) if there shall be Default under any of the other Loan Documents beyond any applicable cure periods contained in such Loan Documents, whether as to Borrower, Guarantor or the Property, or if any other such event shall occur or condition shall exist,
111
if the effect of such event or condition is to accelerate the maturity of any portion of the Debt or to permit Lender to accelerate the maturity of all or any portion of the Debt.
(b) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default described in Section 10.1(a)(vi), (vii) or (viii) above) and at any time thereafter, Lender may, in addition to any other rights or remedies available to it pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or at law or in equity, take such action, without notice or demand, that Lender deems advisable to protect and enforce its rights against Borrower and in and to the Property, including, without limitation, declaring the Debt to be immediately due and payable, and Lender may enforce or avail itself of any or all rights or remedies provided in the Loan Documents against Borrower and the Property, including, without limitation, all rights or remedies available at law or in equity; and upon any Event of Default described in Section 10.1(a)(vi), (vii) or (viii) above, the Debt shall immediately and automatically become due and payable, without notice or demand, and Borrower hereby expressly waives any such notice or demand, anything contained herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding.
Section 10.2. Remedies. (a) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, all or any one or more of the rights, powers, privileges and other remedies available to Lender against Borrower under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents executed and delivered by, or applicable to, Borrower or at law or in equity may be exercised by Lender at any time and from time to time, whether or not all or any portion of the Debt shall be declared due and payable, and whether or not Lender shall have commenced any foreclosure proceeding or initiated or taken other action for the enforcement of its rights and remedies under any of the Loan Documents with respect to all or any part of the Property. Any such actions taken by Lender shall be cumulative and concurrent and may be pursued independently, singly, successively, together or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Lender may determine in its sole and absolute discretion, to the fullest extent permitted by law, without impairing or otherwise affecting the other rights and remedies of Lender permitted by law, equity or contract or as set forth herein or in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Borrower agrees that, if an Event of Default has occurred and remains outstanding,(i) Lender is not subject to any “one action” or “election of remedies” law or rule, and (ii) all liens and other rights, remedies or privileges provided to Lender shall remain in full force and effect until Lender has exhausted all of its rights and remedies against the Property and the Security Instrument has been foreclosed, sold and/or otherwise realized upon in satisfaction of the Obligations or the Debt has been paid in full.
(b) With respect to Borrower and the Property, nothing contained herein or in any other Loan Document shall be construed as requiring Lender to resort to the Property for the satisfaction of any of the Debt in any order, proportion or priority, and Lender may seek satisfaction out of the Property, or any part thereof, in its sole and absolute discretion in respect of the Debt. In addition, Lender shall have the right from time to time to partially foreclose the Security Instrument in any manner and for any amounts secured by the Security Instrument then due and payable as determined by Lender in its sole and absolute discretion including, without limitation, the following circumstances: (i) in the event Borrower defaults beyond any applicable grace period in the payment of one or more scheduled payments of principal and interest, Lender may foreclose the Security Instrument to recover such delinquent payments or
112
(ii) in the event Lender elects to accelerate less than the entire Outstanding Principal Balance, Lender may foreclose the Security Instrument to recover so much of the principal balance of the Loan as Lender may accelerate and such other sums secured by the Security Instrument as Lender may elect. Notwithstanding one or more partial foreclosures, the Property shall remain subject to the Security Instrument to secure payment of sums secured by the Security Instrument and not previously recovered.
(c) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (but without limiting Lender’s rights under Section 9.1, Section 11.29 or Section 11.30 hereof), Lender shall have the right from time to time to sever the Note and the other Loan Documents into one or more separate notes, mortgages and other security documents (collectively, the “Severed Loan Documents”) in such denominations and priority as Lender shall determine in its sole and absolute discretion for purposes of evidencing and enforcing its rights and remedies provided hereunder. Borrower shall execute and deliver to Lender from time to time, promptly after the request of Lender, a severance agreement and such other documents as Lender shall request in order to effect the severance described in the preceding sentence, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender; provided, however, Borrower shall not be required, in the aggregate, to materially increase its obligations with respect to the Loan. Borrower hereby absolutely and irrevocably appoints Lender as its true and lawful attorney, coupled with an interest, in its name and stead to make and execute all documents necessary or desirable to effect the aforesaid severance, Borrower ratifying all that its said attorney shall do by virtue thereof; provided, however, Lender shall not make or execute any such documents under such power until three (3) days after notice has been given to Borrower by Lender of Lender’s intent to exercise its rights under such power. Borrower shall be obligated to pay any costs or expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, execution, recording or filing of the Severed Loan Documents and other matters and documentation in connection therewith. The Severed Loan Documents shall not contain any representations, warranties or covenants not contained in the Loan Documents and any such representations and warranties contained in the Severed Loan Documents will be given by Borrower only as of the Closing Date.
(d) Any amounts recovered from the Property or any other collateral for the Loan after the occurrence of an Event of Default may be applied by Lender toward the payment of any principal and/or interest of the Loan and/or any other amounts due under the Loan Documents in such order, proportion and priority as Lender in its sole and absolute discretion shall determine.
Section 10.3. Right to Cure Defaults. Lender may, but without any obligation to do so and without notice to or demand on Borrower and without releasing Borrower from any obligation hereunder or under the other Loan Documents or being deemed to have cured any Event of Default, make, do or perform any obligation of Borrower hereunder or under the other Loan Documents in such manner and to such extent as Lender may deem necessary. Lender is authorized to enter upon the Property for such purposes, or appear in, defend, or bring any action or proceeding to protect its interest in the Property for such purposes. All reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Lender in remedying or attempting to remedy such Event of Default or such other breach or default by Borrower or in appearing in, defending, or bringing any action or proceeding shall bear interest at the Default Rate from the date such costs and expenses were incurred to the date reimbursement payment is received by Lender. All such costs
113
and expenses incurred by Lender, together with interest thereon calculated at the Default Rate, shall be deemed to constitute a portion of the Obligations, shall be secured by the liens and security interests provided to Lender under the Loan Documents and shall be immediately due and payable upon demand by Lender therefore.
Section 10.4. Remedies Cumulative. The rights, powers and remedies of Lender under this Agreement shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any other right, power or remedy which Lender may have against Borrower pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or existing at law or in equity or otherwise. Lender’s rights, powers and remedies may be pursued singly, concurrently or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Lender may determine in Lender’s sole and absolute discretion. No delay or omission to exercise any right, power or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall impair any such right, power or remedy or shall be construed as a waiver thereof, but any such right, power or remedy may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. A waiver of one Default or Event of Default shall not be construed to be a waiver of any subsequent Default or Event of Default or to impair any right, power or remedy consequent thereon.
ARTICLE XI
MISCELLANEOUS
Section 11.1. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement and all agreements, covenants, representations and warranties in this Agreement, by or on behalf of Borrower, shall inure to the benefit of the legal representatives, successors and assigns of Lender. Lender or its designee, acting solely for purposes of this Section 11.1 as an agent of Borrower, shall keep a copy of each assignment of the Loan and maintain a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of each assignee and principal amount of the Loan owing to such assignee pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time. A copy of an endorsement of the Note (via an allonge or otherwise) payable to an assignee or to the order of an assignee shall be sufficient to evidence an assignment of the Loan to such assignee; provided that upon the request of such assignee, the Borrower shall execute a replacement Note payable to such assignee, whereupon the replaced Note shall be cancelled and returned to Borrower. Failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect Borrower’s obligations in respect of the Loan. The entries in such register shall be deemed conclusive absent manifest error, and Borrower and Lender or its designee may treat each Person whose name is recorded in such register pursuant to the terms hereof as Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. Such register shall be available for inspection by Borrower and Lender or its designee at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. Borrower shall pay Lender or its designee for all costs and expenses incurred by Lender or its designee in connection with maintaining said register and facilitating inspections of same by Borrower.
Section 11.2. Lender’s Discretion.

Prior to a Securitization, whenever pursuant to this Agreement the Rating Agencies are given
114
any right to approve or disapprove, or any arrangement or term is to be satisfactory to the Rating Agencies, the decision of Lender to approve or disapprove or to decide whether arrangements or terms are satisfactory or not satisfactory, based upon Lender’s determination of Rating Agency criteria, shall be substituted therefore.

Section 11.8. Headings. The Article and/or Section headings and the Table of Contents in this Agreement are included herein for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement for any other purpose.
Section 11.9. Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.
Section 11.10. Preferences. Lender shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply or reverse and reapply any and all payments by Borrower to any portion of the Obligations. To the extent Borrower makes any payment to 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 Person 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 or a portion 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 Lender.
Section 11.11. Waiver of Notice. Borrower shall not be entitled to any notices of any nature whatsoever from Lender except with respect to matters for which this Agreement or the other Loan Documents specifically and expressly provide for the giving of notice by Lender to Borrower and except with respect to matters for which Borrower is not, pursuant to the applicable Legal Requirements, permitted to waive the giving of notice. Borrower hereby expressly waives the right to receive any notice from Lender with respect to any matter for which this Agreement or the other Loan Documents do not specifically and expressly provide for the giving of notice by Lender to Borrower.
118
Section 11.12. Remedies of Borrower. In the event that a claim or adjudication is made that Lender or its agents have acted unreasonably or unreasonably delayed acting in any case where, by law or under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, Lender or such agent, as the case may be, has an obligation to act reasonably or promptly, Borrower agrees that neither Lender nor its agents shall be liable for any monetary damages, and Borrower’s sole remedy shall be limited to commencing an action seeking injunctive relief or declaratory judgment. The parties hereto agree that any action or proceeding to determine whether Lender or its agent has acted reasonably shall be determined by an action seeking declaratory judgment.
Section 11.13. Expenses; Indemnity. (a) Subject to Section 9.1(k) and the last sentences of Sections 11.29 and 11.30(c), Borrower shall pay or, if Borrower fails to pay, reimburse Lender upon receipt of notice from Lender, for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by Lender in connection with (i) Borrower’s ongoing performance of and compliance with Borrower’s agreements and covenants contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents on its part to be performed or complied with after the Closing Date, including, without limitation, confirming compliance with environmental and insurance requirements; (ii) Lender’s ongoing performance of and compliance with all agreements and covenants contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents on its part to be performed or complied with after the Closing Date; (iii) the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and administration of any consents, amendments, waivers or other modifications to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other documents or matters requested by Borrower; (iv) the filing and recording fees and expenses, title insurance and reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for providing to Lender all required legal opinions, and other similar expenses incurred, in creating and perfecting the Liens in favor of Lender pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; (v) enforcing or preserving any rights in response to third party claims or the prosecuting or defending of any action or proceeding or other litigation or otherwise, in each case against, under or affecting Borrower, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, the Property, or any other security given for the Loan; (vi) enforcing any obligations of, or collecting any payments due from, Borrower or Guarantor under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or with respect to the Property or in connection with any refinancing or restructuring of the credit arrangements provided under this Agreement in the nature of a “work-out” or of any insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings; and (vii) securing Borrower’s compliance with any requests made by Lender pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, including Section 9.1, Section 11.29 or Section 11.30 hereof; provided, however, that Borrower shall not be liable for the payment of any costs or expenses under this Section 11.13 to the extent the same arise by reason of the gross negligence, illegal acts, fraud or willful misconduct of Lender. At Lender’s discretion, any such costs and expenses due and payable to Lender may be paid to Lender from any amounts in the Clearing Account or the Cash Management Account if not paid by Borrower within ten (10) Business Days after demand by Lender.
(b) Borrower shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Lender Indemnitees from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, out-of-pocket costs and expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for any Lender Indemnitee in connection with any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding commenced or threatened, whether or not such Lender Indemnitee shall be
119
designated a party thereto), that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against any Lender Indemnitee in any manner relating to or arising out of (i) any breach by Borrower of its obligations under, or any misrepresentation by Borrower contained in, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, (ii) any misstatement or omission in any report, certificate, financial statement, other agreement, instrument or document or other materials or information provided by or on behalf of Borrower pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or in connection with the Loan, or (iii) the use or intended use of the proceeds of the Loan (collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”); provided, however, that Borrower shall not have any obligation to the Lender Indemnitees hereunder to the extent that such Indemnified Liabilities arise from the gross negligence, illegal acts, fraud or willful misconduct of the Lender Indemnitees. To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify, defend and hold harmless set forth in the preceding sentence may be unenforceable because it violates any law or public policy, Borrower shall pay the maximum portion that it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by the Lender Indemnitees.
(c) Borrower shall pay for or, if Borrower fails to pay, to reimburse Lender for, any fees, costs and expenses of any Rating Agency in connection with any consent, approval, waiver or confirmation obtained from such Rating Agency pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document and Lender shall be entitled to require payment of such fees, costs and expenses as a condition precedent to the obtaining of any such consent, approval, waiver or confirmation.
Section 11.14. Schedules Incorporated. The Schedules annexed hereto are hereby incorporated herein as a part of this Agreement with the same effect as if set forth in the body hereof.
Section 11.15. Offsets, Counterclaims and Defenses. Any assignee of Lender’s interest in and to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall take the same free and clear of all offsets, counterclaims or defenses which are unrelated to such documents which Borrower may otherwise have against any assignor of such documents, and no such unrelated offset, counterclaim or defense shall be interposed or asserted by Borrower in any action or proceeding brought by any such assignee upon such documents and any such right to interpose or assert any such unrelated offset, counterclaim or defense in any such action or proceeding is hereby expressly waived by Borrower.
Section 11.16. No Joint Venture or Partnership. Borrower and Lender intend that the relationships created hereunder and under the other Loan Documents be solely that of borrower and lender. Nothing herein or therein is intended to create a joint venture, partnership, tenancy-in-common, or joint tenancy relationship between Borrower and Lender or to grant Lender any interest in the Property other than that of mortgagee, beneficiary or lender.
Section 11.17. Publicity. All news releases, publicity or advertising by Borrower or its Affiliates through any media which refers to the Loan, the Loan Documents or Lender or any of its Affiliates shall be subject to the prior approval of Lender, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. Borrower authorizes Lender to issue press releases, advertisements and other promotional materials in connection with Lender’s own promotional and marketing
120
activities, including in connection with a Secondary Market Transaction, and such materials may describe the Loan in general terms or in detail and Lender’s participation therein in the Loan.
Section 11.18. Waiver of Marshalling of Assets. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Borrower, for itself and its successors and assigns, waives all rights to a marshalling of the assets of Borrower, Borrower’s partners, members and others with interests in Borrower, and of the Property, and agrees not to assert any right under any laws pertaining to the marshalling of assets, the sale in inverse order of alienation, homestead exemption, the administration of estates of decedents, or any other matters whatsoever to defeat, reduce or affect the right of Lender under the Loan Documents to a sale of the Property for the collection of the Debt without any prior or different resort for collection or of the right of Lender to the payment of the Debt out of the net proceeds of the Property in preference to every other claimant whatsoever.
Section 11.19. Waiver of Offsets/Defenses/Counterclaims. Borrower hereby waives the right to assert a counterclaim, other than a compulsory counterclaim, in any action or proceeding brought against it by Lender or its agents or otherwise to offset any obligations to make the payments required by the Loan Documents. No failure by Lender to perform any of its obligations hereunder shall be a valid defense to, or result in any offset against, any payments which Borrower is obligated to make under any of the Loan Documents.
Section 11.20. Conflict; Construction of Documents; Reliance. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and any of the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Agreement shall control. The parties hereto acknowledge that they were represented by competent counsel in connection with the negotiation, drafting and execution of the Loan Documents and that such Loan Documents shall not be subject to the principle of construing their meaning against the party which drafted same. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that, with respect to the Loan, Borrower shall rely solely on its own judgment and advisors in entering into the Loan without relying in any manner on any statements, representations or recommendations of Lender or any parent, subsidiary or Affiliate of Lender. Lender shall not be subject to any limitation whatsoever in the exercise of any rights or remedies available to it under any of the Loan Documents or any other agreements or instruments which govern the Loan by virtue of the ownership by it or any parent, subsidiary or Affiliate of Lender of any legal, beneficial or economic interest any of them may acquire in Borrower, and Borrower hereby irrevocably waives the right to raise any defense or take any action on the basis of the foregoing with respect to Lender’s exercise of any such rights or remedies. Borrower acknowledges that Lender engages in the business of real estate financings and other real estate transactions and investments which may be viewed as adverse to or competitive with the business of Borrower or its Affiliates.
Section 11.21. Brokers and Financial Advisors. Borrower hereby represents that, except for Eastdil Secured (“Broker”), it has dealt with no financial advisors, brokers, underwriters, placement agents, agents or finders in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Borrower will pay Broker a commission pursuant to a separate agreement. Borrower shall indemnify, defend and hold Lender harmless from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, claims, costs and expenses of any kind (including Lender’s attorneys’ fees and expenses) in any way relating to or arising from a claim by any Person (including Broker) that such Person acted on behalf of Borrower in connection with the
121
transactions contemplated herein. The provisions of this Section 11.21 shall survive the expiration and termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Debt.
Section 11.22. Exculpation. Subject to the qualifications below, Lender shall not enforce the liability and obligation of Borrower to perform and observe the obligations contained in this Agreement, the Note, the Security Instrument or the other Loan Documents by any action or proceeding wherein a money judgment shall be sought against Borrower, except that Lender may bring a foreclosure action, an action for specific performance or any other appropriate action or proceeding to enable Lender to enforce and realize upon its interest under this Agreement, the Note, the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents, or in the Property, the Rents, or any other collateral given to Lender pursuant to the Loan Documents; provided, however, that, except as specifically provided herein, any judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be enforceable against Borrower only to the extent of Borrower’s interest in the Property, in the Rents, and in any other collateral given to Lender, and Lender, by accepting this Agreement, the Note, the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents, agrees that it shall not xxx for, seek or demand any deficiency judgment against Borrower in any such action or proceeding under or by reason of or under or in connection with this Agreement, the Note, the Security Instrument or the other Loan Documents. The provisions of this Section 11.22 shall not, however, (a) constitute a waiver, release or impairment of any obligation evidenced or secured by any of the Loan Documents; (b) impair the right of Lender to name Borrower as a party defendant in any action or suit for foreclosure and sale under the Security Instrument; (c) affect the validity or enforceability of any guaranty or indemnity made in connection with the Loan or any of the rights and remedies of Lender thereunder; (d) impair the right of Lender to obtain the appointment of a receiver; (e) impair the enforcement of the Assignment of Leases; (f) constitute a prohibition against Lender to seek a deficiency judgment against Borrower in order to fully realize the security granted by the Security Instrument or to commence any other appropriate action or proceeding in order for Lender to exercise its rights and remedies against the Property, the Rents or any other collateral given to Lender pursuant to the Loan Documents; or (g) constitute a waiver of the right of Lender to enforce the liability and obligation of Borrower, by money judgment or otherwise, to the extent of any actual loss, damage, cost, expense, liability, claim or other obligation incurred by Lender (including attorneys’ fees and costs reasonably incurred) arising out of or in connection with, and Borrower shall be personally liable for, the following (all such liability and obligation of Borrower for any or all of the following being referred to herein as the “Borrower’s Recourse Liabilities”):
(i) fraud or intentional material misrepresentation by Borrower, any Sponsor, any Guarantor or any Affiliate of Borrower, any Sponsor or any Guarantor in connection with the Loan;
(ii) the willful misconduct by or on behalf of Borrower, any Sponsor, any Guarantor or any Affiliate of Borrower, any Sponsor or any Guarantor in connection with the Loan;

(vi) any security deposits, advance deposits or any other deposits collected with respect to the Property which are not delivered to Lender upon a foreclosure of the Property or action in lieu thereof, except to the extent any such security deposits were applied in accordance with the terms and conditions of the applicable Leases prior to the occurrence of the Event of Default that gave rise to such foreclosure or action in lieu thereof;
(vii) (A) Borrower’s failure to obtain and maintain in full force and effect fully paid for Policies as required by this Agreement except, with respect to any such Policy (other than any blanket Policy insuring one (1) or more properties in addition to the Property), to the extent such failure arises solely from insufficient cash flows from the operation of the Property or (B) Borrower’s failure to pay any Taxes or assessments affecting the Property except to the extent such failure arises solely from insufficient cash flows from the operation of the Property; provided, however, there shall be no liability under this clause (vii) in the event that no Event of Default exists and there are sufficient Insurance Funds in the Insurance Account or sufficient Tax Funds in the Tax Account (as applicable) to pay for such Policies or such Taxes or assessments (as applicable);
(viii) failure to pay charges for labor or materials or other charges that can create Liens on any portion of the Property (which are not subordinate to the Lien of the Security Instrument) except, with respect to any such charges incurred by Borrower in accordance with the Loan Documents, to the extent such failure arises solely from insufficient cash flows from the operation of the Property;
(ix) Borrower’s indemnification of Lender set forth in Section 9.2 hereof;
(x) any intentional physical waste of the Property caused by Borrower, any Guarantor, or any of their principals, officers, agents or employees;

information, or fails to appoint or, if applicable, cause the appointment of, a new property manager upon the request of Lender, in each case as required by, and in accordance with the terms and provisions of, the Loan Documents;
(xiii) forfeiture of the Property due to Borrower’s commission of a criminal act;
(xiv) (A) the breach of any representation set forth in Section 3.1.24 hereof (except with respect to Sections 3.1.24(f) and (j), to the extent compliance would require any direct or indirect equity owner of Borrower to make any capital contributions to Borrower), or (B) the failure by Borrower to maintain its status as a special purpose entity as required by, and in accordance with, the terms and provisions of the Loan Documents (except with respect to Sections 3.1.24(f) and (j), to the extent compliance would require any direct or indirect equity owner of Borrower to make any capital contributions to Borrower); or
(xv) if Borrower, Guarantor or any Affiliate of Borrower or Guarantor contests, impedes, delays or opposes the exercise by Lender of any enforcement actions, remedies or other rights it has under or in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, provided that the foregoing shall not include any defense, claim or counterclaim raised in good faith.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Note or any of the other Loan Documents, (A) Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any right which Lender may have under Section 506(a), 506(b) or 1111(b) or any other provisions of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code or any other Bankruptcy Law to file a claim for the full amount of the Debt or to require that all collateral shall continue to secure all of the Obligations in accordance with the Loan Documents, and (B) the Debt shall be fully recourse to Borrower in the event that any of the following occurs (each, a “Springing Recourse Event”): (1)(x) Borrower fails to maintain its status as a single purpose entity as required by, and in accordance with, the terms and provisions of, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents except as a result of Borrower’s inability to comply with Sections 3.1.24(f) and (j) hereof and (y) a court of competent jurisdiction orders a substantive consolidation of Borrower’s assets in a bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding of a Person other than Borrower and such failure is a material consideration in such order; (2) Borrower fails to obtain Lender’s prior consent to any Indebtedness secured by the Property except to the extent expressly permitted by this Agreement (for the avoidance of doubt, Permitted Trade Payables, unsecured loans made by any Person that owns a direct or indirect interest in Borrower to another Person that owns a direct or indirect interest in Borrower, or other payables or liabilities incurred in connection with the operation, management or leasing of the Property shall not constitute Indebtedness for the purposes of this sub-clause (2), although any such Indebtedness may nevertheless constitute a Default or an Event of Default if it violates any provision of any of the Loan Documents); (3) Borrower fails to obtain Lender’s prior consent to any voluntary Transfer of all or substantially all of the Property or to any Transfer which results in a change of control of Borrower except to the extent expressly permitted by this Agreement or the Security Instrument; (4) Borrower files a voluntary petition under the Bankruptcy Law; (5) any Affiliate of Borrower which controls, directly or indirectly, Borrower files, or joins in the filing of, an involuntary petition against Borrower under the Bankruptcy Law, or solicits or causes to be solicited petitioning creditors for any involuntary petition against Borrower from
124
any Person; (6) Borrower files an answer consenting to or otherwise acquiescing in or joining in any involuntary petition filed against it by any other Person under the Bankruptcy Law, or solicits or causes to be solicited petitioning creditors for any involuntary petition against Borrower from any Person; (7) any Affiliate of Borrower which controls, directly or indirectly, Borrower consents to or acquiesces in or joins in an application for the appointment of a custodian, receiver, trustee, or examiner for Borrower or any portion of the Property; or (8) Borrower makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or admits, in writing (other than in any information provided to Lender pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any financial statement of Borrower) or in any action or proceeding, its insolvency or inability to pay its debts as they become due.
As used in this Section 11.22, the term “control” means the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management, policies or activities of a Person, whether through ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise and the terms “controlled” and “controlling” shall have correlative meanings.
Section 11.23. Prior Agreements. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents contain the entire agreement of the parties hereto and thereto in respect of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and all prior agreements among or between such parties, whether oral or written, including, without limitation, the Mortgage and Mezzanine Term Sheet dated May 1, 2012 between Swig Equities, LLC and Longwing, Inc. and Lender, are superseded by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
Section 11.24. Servicer. (a) At the option of Lender, the Loan may be serviced by a master servicer, primary servicer, special servicer and/or trustee (any such master servicer, primary servicer, special servicer and trustee, together with its agents, nominees or designees, are collectively referred to herein as “Servicer”) selected by Lender and Lender may delegate all or any portion of its responsibilities under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to Servicer pursuant to a pooling and servicing agreement, servicing agreement, special servicing agreement and/or other agreement providing for the servicing of one (1) or more mortgage loans (collectively, the “Servicing Agreement”) between Lender and Servicer. Borrower shall be responsible for (i) any reasonable set-up fees or any other initial costs and expenses relating to or arising under the Servicing Agreement, but not including the legal costs incurred in connection with the negotiation of the Servicing Agreement, and (ii) any fees and expenses of Servicer (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and disbursements) in connection with any release of the Property, any prepayment, defeasance, assumption, amendment or modification of the Loan, any documents or matters requested by Borrower, special servicing or work-out of the Loan or enforcement of the Loan Documents, and all property inspections and/or appraisals of the Property (or any updates to existing inspections or appraisals) that Servicer may be required to obtain. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Servicer shall be entitled to reimbursement of costs and expenses as and to the same extent (but without duplication) as Lender is entitled thereto under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
(b) Upon notice thereof from Lender, Servicer shall have the right to exercise all rights of Lender and enforce all obligations of Borrower and Guarantor pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
125
(c) Provided Borrower shall have been given notice of Servicer’s identity and address by Lender, Borrower shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Servicer duplicate originals of all notices and other documents and instruments which Borrower or Guarantor may or shall be required to deliver to Lender pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (and no delivery of such notices or other documents and instruments by Borrower or Guarantor shall be of any force or effect unless delivered to Lender and Servicer as provided above).
Section 11.25. Joint and Several Liability. If Borrower consists of more than one (1) Person, the representations, warranties, covenants, obligations and liabilities of each Person shall be joint and several.
Section 11.26. Creation of Security Interest. Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this Agreement, the Note, the Security Instrument or any of the other Loan Documents, Lender may at any time grant a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement, the Note, the Security Instrument or any of the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, the payments owing to it) (a) to any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with Regulation A of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or to the central reserve bank or similar authority of any other country to secure any obligation of Lender or its Affiliates to such bank or similar authority or (b) to secure any borrowing by Lender or its Affiliates from any company that purchases or funds financial assets by issuing commercial paper.
Section 11.27. Intentionally Omitted.
Section 11.28. Set-Off. In addition to any other rights and remedies of Lender provided by the Loan Documents and by law, Lender shall have the right, without prior notice to Borrower, any such notice being expressly waived by Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon any amount becoming due and payable by Borrower hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) to set-off and appropriate and apply against such amount any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by Lender or any Affiliate of Lender to or for the credit or the account of Borrower. Lender agrees to promptly notify Borrower after any such set-off and application made by Lender; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.
Section 11.29. Component Notes. Without in any way limiting Lender’s other rights under this Agreement or any other Loan Document (including Lender’s rights under Section 9.1 and Section 11.30 hereof), Lender shall have the right, at any time and in its sole and absolute discretion, to require Borrower to execute and deliver new component notes (including senior and junior notes) to replace the original note or modify the original note to reflect multiple components of the Loan, which notes may be paid in such order of priority as may be designated by Lender, provided that (a) the aggregate principal amount of such component notes shall, on the date created, equal the Outstanding Principal Balance immediately prior to the creation of such component notes, (b) the weighted average interest rate of all such component notes shall, on the date created, equal the interest rate which was applicable to the Loan immediately prior to
126
the creation of such component notes, (c) the scheduled debt service payments on all such component notes shall, on the date created, equal the scheduled debt service payments under the Loan immediately prior to the creation of such component notes, and (d) Borrower shall not be required, in the aggregate, to materially decrease its rights or materially increase its obligations with respect to the Loan (except that the weighted average interest rate may subsequently change due to involuntary prepayments due to the application of Proceeds or an Award following a Casualty or Condemnation or if an Event of Default shall occur or otherwise pursuant to a prepayment under Section 5.3.2(i)). Borrower shall cooperate with all reasonable requests of Lender in order to establish the component notes and shall execute and deliver, and cause to be executed and delivered, such documents as shall reasonably be required by Lender or any Rating Agency in connection therewith, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender and, if applicable, satisfactory to such Rating Agency (including, without limitation, the severance of security documents). Borrower hereby absolutely and irrevocably appoints Lender as its true and lawful attorney, coupled with an interest, in its name and stead to make and execute all documents necessary or desirable to establish the component notes as described in this Section 11.29, Borrower ratifying all that its said attorney shall do by virtue thereof; provided, however, Lender shall not make or execute any such documents under such power until three (3) days after notice has been given to Borrower by Lender of Lender’s intent to exercise its rights under such power. Lender shall reimburse Borrower for all reasonable out-of-pocket third party costs and expenses actually incurred by Borrower, Guarantor, Manager and their respective Affiliates subsequent to the Closing Date in connection with the creation of the component notes and all requirements relating thereto, and Borrower shall not be responsible for any of Lender’s costs incurred in connection with the creation of the component notes and all requirements relating thereto.
Section 11.30. Additional Mezzanine Loan. Without in any way limiting Lender’s other rights under this Agreement or any other Loan Document (including Lender’s rights under Section 9.1 and Section 11.29 hereof), Lender shall have the right (the “Mezzanine Option”) at any time, in its sole and absolute discretion, to divide the Loan into two parts: a mortgage loan (the “Mortgage Loan”) and one or more mezzanine loans (each individually, an “Additional Mezzanine Loan”). In effectuating the foregoing, Lender (in its capacity as the lender under the Additional Mezzanine Loans, “Additional Mezzanine Lender”) will make one or more mezzanine loans to single purpose, bankruptcy remote entities that own, directly or indirectly, all of the legal, beneficial and economic interests in Borrower (each individually, an “Additional Mezzanine Borrower”) in the amount of the related Additional Mezzanine Loan; each Additional Mezzanine Borrower will contribute the amount of its Additional Mezzanine Loan and the proceeds of any junior Additional Mezzanine Loan contributed to such Additional Mezzanine Borrower by its immediately junior Additional Mezzanine Borrower to Borrower (Borrower, in its capacity as the borrower under the Mortgage Loan, “Mortgage Borrower”) or to its immediately senior Additional Mezzanine Borrower, as applicable; and Mortgage Borrower will apply the contribution to pay down the Loan to the amount of the Mortgage Loan. In connection with the Mezzanine Option:
(a) Lender shall have the right to establish different interest rates and debt service payments for the Mortgage Loan and the Additional Mezzanine Loans and to require the payment of the Mortgage Loan and the Additional Mezzanine Loans in such order of priority as may be designated by Lender; provided, that (i) the aggregate principal amount of the Mortgage
127
Loan and the Additional Mezzanine Loans shall equal the Outstanding Principal Balance immediately prior to the creation of the Mortgage Loan and the Additional Mezzanine Loans, (ii) the weighted average interest rate of the Mortgage Loan and the Additional Mezzanine Loans shall, on the date created, equal the interest rate which was applicable to the Loan immediately prior to creation of the Mortgage Loan and the Additional Mezzanine Loans, (iii) the scheduled debt service payments on the Mortgage Loan and the Additional Mezzanine Loans shall, on the date created, equal the scheduled debt service payments under the Loan immediately prior to creation of the Mortgage Loan and the Additional Mezzanine Loans, and (iv) neither Borrower nor its Affiliates shall be required, in the aggregate, to materially decrease their rights or materially increase their obligations with respect to the Loan existing immediately prior to creation of the Mortgage Loan and the Additional Mezzanine Loans (except that the weighted average interest rate may subsequently change due to involuntary prepayments due to the application of Proceeds or an Award following a Casualty or Condemnation or if an Event of Default shall occur or otherwise pursuant to a prepayment under Section 5.3.2(i)).
(b) Each Additional Mezzanine Borrower shall be a single purpose, bankruptcy remote entity under the criteria established by the Rating Agencies and shall own directly one hundred percent (100%) of the legal, beneficial and economic interests in Mortgage Borrower or its immediately senior Additional Mezzanine Borrower, as applicable. The security for any Additional Mezzanine Loan shall include a pledge by the related Additional Mezzanine Borrower of one hundred percent (100%) of the direct ownership interests in Mortgage Borrower or its immediately senior Additional Mezzanine Borrower, as applicable.
(c) Borrower, Mortgage Borrower and Additional Mezzanine Borrowers shall cooperate with all reasonable requests of Lender in order to convert the Loan into the Mortgage Loan and the Additional Mezzanine Loans and shall execute and deliver, and cause to be executed and delivered, such documents as shall reasonably be required by Lender or any Rating Agency in connection therewith, all in form and substance substantially similar to the Mezzanine Loan Documents and otherwise reasonably satisfactory to Lender and, if applicable, satisfactory to such Rating Agency (including, without limitation, the delivery of bankruptcy nonconsolidation opinions and the modification of organizational documents and loan documents). Each of Borrower, Mortgage Borrower and Additional Mezzanine Borrowers hereby absolutely and irrevocably appoints Lender as its true and lawful attorney, coupled with an interest, in its name and stead to make and execute all documents necessary or desirable to convert the Loan as described in this Section 11.30, each of Borrower, Mortgage Borrower and Additional Mezzanine Borrowers ratifying all that its said attorney shall do by virtue thereof; provided, however, Lender shall not make or execute any such documents under such power until three (3) days after notice has been given to Borrower by Lender of Lender’s intent to exercise its rights under such power. Lender shall reimburse Borrower for all reasonable out-of-pocket third party costs and expenses actually incurred by Borrower, Guarantor, Manager and their respective Affiliates subsequent to the Closing Date in connection with the creation of the Mortgage Loan and the Additional Mezzanine Loans and all requirements relating thereto, and Borrower shall not be responsible for any of Lender’s costs incurred in connection with the creation of the Mortgage Loan and the Additional Mezzanine Loans and all requirements relating thereto.
Section 11.31. Approvals; Third Parties; Conditions. (a) All approval rights retained or exercised by Lender with respect to any Leases, contracts, plans, studies and other matters are
128
solely to facilitate Lender’s credit underwriting, and shall not be deemed or construed as a determination that Lender has passed on the adequacy thereof for any other purpose and may not be relied upon by Borrower or any other Person.
(b) This Agreement and the other Loan Documents are for the sole and exclusive use of Borrower and Lender and may not be enforced, nor relied upon, by any other Person. Nothing contained in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to confer upon any Person other than Borrower and Lender any right to insist upon or to enforce the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants and conditions contained herein or therein. All conditions to the obligations of Lender hereunder or under the other Loan Documents are imposed solely and exclusively for the benefit of Lender and no other Person shall have standing to require satisfaction of such conditions or be entitled to assume that Lender will refuse to make the Loan (or, if applicable, make any advances) or otherwise perform or satisfy such obligations in the absence of strict compliance with any or all of such conditions and no other Person shall under any circumstances be deemed to be a beneficiary of such conditions, any or all of which may be freely waived in whole or in part by Lender at any time in Lender’s sole and absolute discretion.
Section 11.32. Limitation on Liability of Lender’s Officers, Employees, etc. Any obligation or liability whatsoever of Lender which may arise at any time under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be satisfied, if at all, out of Lender’s interest in the Property only. No such obligation or liability shall be personally binding upon, nor shall resort for the enforcement thereof be had to, any other asset or property of Lender or the asset or property of any of Lender’s shareholders, directors, officers, employees or agents, regardless of whether such obligation or liability is in the nature of contract, tort or otherwise.
Section 11.33. Certain Additional Rights of Lender (VCOC). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, upon reasonable notice to Borrower, Lender shall have:
(a) the right to routinely consult with and advise Borrower’s management regarding the significant business activities and business and financial developments of Borrower; provided, however, that such consultations shall not include discussions of environmental compliance programs or disposal of Hazardous Substances. Consultation meetings should occur on a regular basis (no less frequently than quarterly) with Lender having the right to call special meetings at any reasonable times upon reasonable notice;
(b) the right, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, to examine the books and records of Borrower at any reasonable times upon reasonable notice;
(c) the right, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, including, without limitation, Section 4.1.6 hereof, to receive monthly, quarterly and year-end financial reports, including balance sheets, statements of income, shareholder’s equity and cash flow, a management report and schedules of outstanding indebtedness (in each case only to the extent Borrower is otherwise required to provide such reports pursuant to the terms of this Agreement); and
129
(d) the right, without restricting any other rights of Lender under this Agreement (including any similar right), to approve any acquisition by Borrower of any other significant property (other than personal property required for the day to day operation of the Property).
The rights described above in this Section 11.33 may be exercised by any entity which owns and controls, directly or indirectly, substantially all of the interests in Lender. As used in this Section 11.33, the term “control” means the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management, policies or activities of a Person, whether through ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise and the terms “controlled” and “controlling” shall have correlative meanings.
