3
“Advances”) to each Series as a separate Borrower in the amounts set forth on Schedule 1, as amended from time to time. The outstanding principal amount of the Advances, together with interest accrued thereon, shall be secured by a first position security interest in a Property associated with such Series Borrower and Advance as evidenced by a Security Agreement and shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date or, if earlier, on the date on which they are declared due and payable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. Each Lender’s agreement to make the Advance shall be in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
2.2Facility Register. Lender shall maintain a facility register (“Facility Register”) showing the outstanding principal amount of the Advances and accrued interest, expenses and fees owing to each Lender from time to time, and any payments made by Borrower to Lender. Borrower shall render monthly statements reflecting the information contained on the Facility Register to Lender, including principal, interest, fees and including an itemization of all charges and expenses owing, and such statements, absent manifest error, shall be conclusively presumed to be correct and accurate and constitute an account stated between Borrower and Lender unless, within 30 days after receipt thereof by Lender, Lender shall deliver to Borrower a written objection thereto describing the error or errors contained in any such statements.
2.3Payments.
(a)Maturity Date. Borrower promises to pay the Obligations (including principal, interest, fees, costs, and expenses relating to an Advance) in United States Dollars in full on the Maturity Date or, if earlier, on the date on which such Obligations are declared due and payable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.
(b)Optional Prepayments. Borrower may prepay without penalty the outstanding Obligations at any time in whole or in part.
(c)Mandatory Payments. On the fifteenth (15th) day of each subsequent calendar month after an Advance has been made and until the principal, interest and any other amounts or Obligations payable hereunder have been paid in full, Borrower shall pay to Lenders interest (each, a “Mandatory Interest Payment”) at a rate equal to the yield rate on such Property (the “Ordinary Interest Rate”) on the unpaid balance of each Advance calculated in accordance with Section 2.4(e) below. Any Mandatory Interest Payments not paid when due shall be compounded and shall thereafter constitute Advances hereunder and shall accrue interest at the rate then applicable to such Advances.
(d)Computation. All interest and fees chargeable hereunder shall be compounded annually and computed on the basis of a 360 day year, in each case, for the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which the interest or fees accrue.
(e)Overadvances. If, at any time or for any reason, the total amount of all of the outstanding Advances owed by Borrower to Lenders is greater than the Maximum Facility Amount (an “Overadvance”), Borrower shall immediately pay to Lenders, in cash, the amount of such excess, which amount shall be used by Lenders to reduce the outstanding Obligations in accordance with the priorities set forth in Section 2.4(g).
(f)Allocation- Any payments made by Borrower to Lenders pursuant to this Agreement shall be made pro-rata in accordance with each Lender’s Percentage Interest in the Advances.
(g)Application. Any payments made by Borrower to Lenders pursuant to the terms of this Agreement will be applied first to the payment of expenses due hereunder, second to interest accrued
4
on any Advances and third, if the amount of such payment exceeds the amount of all such expenses and accrued interest, to the payment of principal of any Advances.
(h)Intent to Limit Charges to Maximum Lawful Rate. In no event shall the interest rate or rates payable under this Agreement, plus any other amounts paid in connection herewith, exceed the highest rate permissible under any law that a court of competent jurisdiction shall, in a final determination, deem applicable. Borrower and Lenders, in executing and delivering this Agreement, intend legally to agree upon the rate or rates of interest and manner of payment stated within it; provided, however, that anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if such rate or rates of interest or manner of payment exceeds the maximum allowable under applicable law, then, ipso facto, as of the date of this Agreement, Borrower is and shall be liable only for the payment of such maximum as allowed by law, and payment received from Borrower in excess of such legal maximum, whenever received, shall be applied to reduce the principal balance of the Obligations to the extent of such excess.
(i)Crediting Payments. The receipt of any payment item by Borrower shall not be considered a payment on account unless such payment is made via wire transfer in immediately available funds made to Lender’s specific account or unless and until such payment item is honored when presented for payment. Should any payment item not be honored when presented for payment, then Borrower shall be deemed not to have made such payment and interest shall be calculated accordingly. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by Borrower shall be made to Lender’s specified account and shall be made in immediately available funds, no later than 12:00 p.m. (Florida time) on the date specified herein. Any payment received by a Lender later than 12:00 p.m. (Florida time) shall be deemed to have been received on the following Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue until such following Business Day.
