SECTION 2.2 INTEREST; LOAN PAYMENTS; LATE PAYMENT CHARGE.
2.2.1 PAYMENT OF PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST.
(a) Interest Payments.
(i) Except as set forth in Section 2.2.1(ii), interest shall accrue
on the Principal Amount as set forth in the Note.
(ii) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default and from and after the Maturity Date if the entire Principal Amount is
not repaid on the Maturity Date, interest on the outstanding principal balance
of the Loan and, to the extent permitted by law, overdue interest and other
amounts due in respect of the Loan shall accrue at the Default Rate calculated
from the date such payment was due without regard to any grace or cure periods
contained herein. Interest at the Default Rate shall be computed from the
occurrence of the Event of Default until the actual receipt and collection of
the Indebtedness (or that portion thereof that is then due). To the extent
permitted by applicable law, interest at the Default Rate shall be added to the
Indebtedness, shall itself accrue interest at the same rate as the Loan and
shall be secured by the Security Instrument and the Pledge Agreement. This
paragraph shall not be construed as an agreement or privilege to extend the date
of the payment of the Indebtedness, nor as a waiver of any other right or remedy
accruing to Lender by reason of the occurrence of any Event of Default, and
Lender retains its rights under the Note to accelerate and to continue to demand
payment of the Indebtedness upon the happening of any Event of Default.
44
(iii) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a material
Event of Default (as determined by Lender in its sole and absolute discretion),
Borrower agrees and acknowledges that all interest payments on the Loan may be
applied to the Notes (if the Note is bifurcated into more than one note, or any
substitute or component notes, as applicable) in the following order of priority
(1) first, pro-rata (on the basis of their respective principal or notional
balances), among the Notes (or any substitute or component notes) which as part
of a Securitization are designated as a "Class A" or a "Class X" note and (ii)
second, sequentially, starting with the next most senior securitized tranche (it
being agreed that an earlier alphabetical designation of any note class shall be
senior to any lower alphabetical designation; provided however, that interest
payments on any "Class X Note" shall be pro-rata with interest payments on any
"Class A Note").
(iv) Borrower agrees and acknowledges that prior to a material
Event of Default (as determined by Lender in its sole and absolute discretion)
the principal payment due on the Maturity Date will be applied to the Notes (or
any substitute or component notes, as applicable) pro-rata (on the basis of
their respective principal balances) among the securitized and any
non-securitized portions of the Loan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the
occurrence and during the continuance of a material Event of Default (as
determined by Lender in its sole and absolute discretion), Borrower agrees and
acknowledges that the principal payment due on the Maturity Date will be applied
to the Notes (or any substitute or component notes, as applicable) sequentially,
starting with the most senior securitized tranche.
2.2.2 METHOD AND PLACE OF PAYMENT.
(a) On each Payment Date, Borrower shall pay or cause to be paid to
Lender interest accruing pursuant to the Note for the entire Interest Period
with respect to such Payment Date.
(b) All amounts advanced by Lender pursuant to the applicable provisions
of the Loan Documents, other than the Principal Amount, together with any
interest at the Default Rate or other charges as provided therein, shall be due
and payable hereunder as provided in the Loan Documents. In the event any such
advance or charge is not so repaid by Borrower, Lender may, at its option and
upon notice to Borrower, first apply any payments received under the Note to
repay such advances, together with any interest thereon, or other charges as
provided in the Loan Documents, and the balance, if any, shall be applied in
payment of any installment of interest or principal then due and payable.
(c) The Maturity Date Payment shall be due and payable in full on the
Maturity Date.
2.2.3 LATE PAYMENT CHARGE. If any interest payment due under the
Loan Documents is not paid by Borrower within five (5) days after the date on
which it is due (or, if such fifth (5th) day is not a Business Day, then the
Business Day immediately following such day), Borrower shall pay to Lender upon
demand an amount equal to the lesser of three percent (3%) of such unpaid sum or
the Maximum Legal Rate (the LATE PAYMENT CHARGE) in order to defray the expense
incurred by Lender in handling and processing such delinquent payment and to
compensate Lender for the loss of the use of such delinquent payment. Any such
amount shall be secured by this Agreement, the Security Instrument and the other
Loan Documents to the extent permitted by applicable law. Borrower acknowledges
and agrees that the five day grace
45
period with respect to the applicability of the Late Payment Charge (i) shall
only apply to Borrower's first failure to make a monthly interest payment in any
calendar year and (ii) shall not constitute a payment grace period and shall in
no way limit Lender's rights under Article XVII.
2.2.4 USURY SAVINGS. This Agreement and the Note are subject to the
express condition that at no time shall Borrower be obligated or required to pay
interest on the Principal Amount of the Loan at a rate which could subject
Lender to either civil or criminal liability as a result of being in excess of
the Maximum Legal Rate. If, by the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents, Borrower is at any time required or obligated to pay interest on the
Principal Amount due under the Note at a rate in excess of the Maximum Legal
Rate, then the Applicable Rate or the Default Rate, as the case may be, shall be
deemed to be immediately reduced to the Maximum Legal Rate and all previous
payments in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate shall be deemed to have been
payments in reduction of principal and not on account of the interest due under
the Note. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Lender for the use, forbearance,
or detention of the sums due under the Loan, shall, to the extent permitted by
applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the
full stated term of the Loan until payment in full so that the rate or amount of
interest on account of the Loan does not exceed the Maximum Legal Rate of
interest from time to time in effect and applicable to the Loan for so long as
the Loan is outstanding.
SECTION 2.3 PREPAYMENTS.
2.3.1 PREPAYMENTS. No prepayments of the Indebtedness shall be
permitted except as set forth in Section 4 of the Note. Borrower agrees and
acknowledges after the closing of the Loan that prior to a material Event of
Default (as determined by Lender in its sole and absolute discretion) (x) in the
case of prepayments of the Loan in connection with a Casualty or Condemnation,
principal will be applied (to the event not used for restoration pursuant to the
terms hereof) to the Note (and any substitute or component notes, as applicable)
sequentially starting with the most senior securitized tranche and (y) in the
case of all other prepayments of the Loan, such prepayments will be applied to
any substitute or component notes created pursuant to Section 5.1.11 pro-rata
(on the basis of their respective principal balances if more than one Note
exists) among the securitized and any non-securitized portions of the Loan (and
pro-rata within the securitized portions of the Loan). Notwithstanding the
foregoing, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a material Event of
Default (as determined by Lender in its sole and absolute discretion), Borrower
agrees and acknowledges that any principal prepayments of the Loan will be
applied to any substitute or component notes created pursuant to Section 5.1.11
sequentially, starting with the most senior securitized tranche (it being
acknowledged that during the continuance of a material Event of Default all
securitized portions of the Loan shall be paid in full prior to the payment of
any non-securitized portions of the Loan).
2.3.2 PREPAYMENTS AFTER EVENT OF DEFAULT. If, following an Event of
Default, Lender shall accelerate the Indebtedness and Borrower thereafter
tenders payment of all or any part of the Indebtedness, or if all or any portion
of the Indebtedness is recovered by Lender after such Event of Default, (a) such
payment may be made only on the next occurring Payment Date together with all
unpaid interest thereon as calculated through the end of the Interest Period
during which such Payment Date occurs (even if such period extends beyond such
Payment Date and calculated as if such payment had not been made on such Payment
Date), and all other fees
46
and sums payable hereunder or under the Loan Documents, including without
limitation, interest that has accrued at the Default Rate and any Late Payment
Charges), (b) such payment shall be deemed a voluntary prepayment by Borrower,
and (c) Borrower shall pay, in addition to the Indebtedness, an amount equal to
the Liquidated Damages Amount.
2.3.3 RELEASE OF PROPERTY UPON LOAN REPAYMENT IN FULL. Lender shall,
at the reasonable expense of Borrower, upon (i) payment in full of the Principal
Amount and interest on the Loan and all other amounts due and payable under the
Loan Documents in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Note and this
Agreement, or (ii) a Defeasance Event as provided in Section 2.3.4 below,
release the Lien of this Agreement upon the Account Collateral and the Security
Instrument (and the Pledge Agreement, if applicable) on the Property, or the
applicable Property or Properties if the entire Principal Amount is not paid or
defeased in full, or assign it, in whole or in part, to a new lender. In such
event, Borrower shall submit to Lender, on a date prior to the date of such
release or assignment sufficient to provide a reasonable period for review

obtain the release of the Property, or applicable Property or Properties if
defeased only in part, by and upon satisfaction of the following conditions
(such event being a DEFEASANCE EVENT):
(i) Borrower shall provide not less than thirty (30) days prior
written notice to Lender specifying the date (the DEFEASANCE DATE) on which the
Defeasance Event shall occur, which notice shall be revocable by Borrower but

if Borrower elects to so revoke any such notice, Borrower shall reimburse Lender
for the actual out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Lender in connection with such
revocation;

(x) the Defeasance Deposit, or (y) the Defeasance Collateral (in an amount equal
to or greater than that which could otherwise be purchased with the Defeasance
Deposit had the required Defeasance Deposit been delivered by Borrower);
(vi) Borrower shall execute and deliver a pledge and security
agreement, in form and substance that would be reasonably satisfactory to a
prudent lender creating a first priority lien on the Defeasance Collateral, in
accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.3.4 (the SECURITY AGREEMENT);
(vii) Borrower shall deliver an opinion of counsel for Borrower that
is standard in commercial lending transactions and subject only to customary
qualifications, assumptions and exceptions opining, among other things, that
Borrower has duly and validly transferred and assigned to the Successor Borrower
the Defeasance Collateral and all obligations, rights and duties under and to
the Note that are attributable to the Property, that Lender has a perfected
first priority security interest in the Defeasance Collateral delivered by
Borrower, and shall pay all costs of Lender obtaining an opinion of counsel that
is standard in similar transactions that any REMIC Trust formed pursuant to a
Securitization will not fail to maintain its status as a "real estate mortgage
investment conduit" within the meaning of Section 860D of the Code as a result

(viii) Borrower shall obtain confirmation in writing from the
applicable Rating Agencies to the effect that the Defeasance Collateral to be

effect immediately prior to such Defeasance Event for the Securities issued in
connection with the Securitization which are then outstanding. If required by
the applicable Rating Agencies, Borrower shall also deliver or cause to be
delivered a Non-Consolidation Opinion with respect to the Successor Borrower in

Date with respect to the Individual Properties that are subject to such
Defeasance Event;

(b) In connection with any Defeasance Event, Borrower shall purchase
Defeasance Collateral (or Lender shall use the Defeasance Deposit to purchase
such Defeasance Collateral) which provide payments on or prior to, but as close
as possible to, all successive scheduled Payment Dates after the Defeasance Date

due under the Loan Documents on such dates and the payment of such Note in full
on the Maturity Date) (the SCHEDULED DEFEASANCE PAYMENTS). Borrower, pursuant to
the Security Agreement or other appropriate document, shall authorize and direct
that the payments received from the Defeasance Collateral may be made directly
to the Collection Account (unless otherwise directed by Lender) and applied to

to Borrower.
(c) The Defeasance Collateral shall be duly endorsed by the holder
thereof as directed by Lender or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer
in form and substance that would be reasonably satisfactory to a prudent lender
(including, without limitation, such instruments as may be reasonably required
by the depository institution holding such securities or by the issuer thereof,
as the case may be, to effectuate book-entry transfers and pledges through the
book-entry facilities of such institution) in order to perfect upon the delivery
of the Defeasance Collateral a first priority security interest therein in favor
of the Lender in conformity with all applicable state and federal laws governing
the granting of such security interests.
(d) Borrower may at its option, or if so required by the applicable
Rating Agencies shall, establish or designate a successor entity (the SUCCESSOR
BORROWER) which shall be a single purpose bankruptcy remote entity approved by
the Rating Agencies with one (1) Independent Director, and the applicable
Borrower(s) shall transfer and assign all obligations, rights and duties under
and to the Note, together with the pledged Defeasance Collateral to such
Successor Borrower. Such Successor Borrower shall assume the obligations under
the Note and the Security Agreement and the applicable Borrower(s) shall be
relieved of its obligations under such documents. Borrower shall pay $1,000 to
any such Successor Borrower as consideration for assuming the obligations under
the Note and the Security Agreement.
(e) If Borrower has elected to defease the Loan or any allocated portion
thereof, and the requirements set forth in this Section 2.3.4 have been
satisfied, the applicable Property or Properties shall be released from the Lien
of the Security Instrument as provided in this Section and the Defeasance
Collateral, pledged pursuant to the Security Agreement, shall be the substitute
source of collateral securing such amounts due under the Note. Further, the
pledge of
49
the related Account Collateral, the Collateral Accounts and other
property pledged under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and all other
obligations of Borrower created hereunder in respect of such Property or
Properties shall be discharged, except as specifically provided to the contrary

satisfactory to Lender in its reasonable discretion and all other documentation
Lender reasonably requires to be delivered by Borrower in connection with such

connection with such Defeasance Event (together with calculations demonstrating
the same in reasonable detail), and Mortgage Borrower General Partner has

any tax, bond or assessment that constitutes a lien against the applicable
Property has (i) prior to such release, been properly allocated between the
50

separately; (6) Lender shall have received such endorsements to the Title Policy

hereinafter collectively referred to as the GENERAL RELEASE CONDITIONS.
(b) Biltmore Property Expansion Project: Borrower intends to pursue the
development of certain portions of the Biltmore Property identified on the map
attached hereto as Exhibit "R-1" and labeled as "Resort Expansion Parcels." Such
projects (RESORT EXPANSION PROJECTS) are anticipated to include the development
of high-end residential product (including for sale, for rent and time-share
dwellings and/or hotel rooms and vacation ownership dwellings) anticipated to be
managed by a Borrower Subsidiary as part of a rental management program similar
to the Borrower Subsidiaries' current programs at the Biltmore Property and the
La Quinta Property (the RENTAL MANAGEMENT PROGRAM). The release price for the
Resort Expansion Projects will be Zero Dollars ($0), provided, (i) if any
release of a Resort Expansion Parcel results in the elimination of any existing
hotel rooms and/or any material (as "material" is determined by Lender in its
sole but reasonable discretion) resort amenity other than the existing tennis
courts and putting course shown on Exhibit "R-1", Borrower shall complete a new
development on the Resort Expansion Parcel within 12 months (subject to
Excusable Delay and
51
subject to an outside completion date of the Payment Date in
November, 2007) from the date of such release (such expansion shall have no
fewer than 60 rooms representing 60 individual keys) which complies in all
material respects with all Legal Requirements and the terms hereof (with
delivery of a permanent certificate of occupancy for such development delivered
to Lender before the expiration of such 12 month period or, if no such permanent
certificate of occupancy has been issued, delivery to Lender of a temporary
certificate of occupancy with no material conditions remaining that are
necessary to deliver a permanent certificate of occupancy to Lender), and (ii)
after development of any Resort Expansion Parcel at least thirty (30) keys to
individual rooms on any such Resort Expansion Parcel are part of a rental
management program in form reasonably acceptable to Lender that is collaterally
assigned to Lender.
(c) As a condition to the release or reconveyance of each Resort
Expansion Parcel from the Lien of the Security Instrument, Borrower shall have
satisfied the General Release Conditions and the following conditions, as
determined by Lender (such determination not to be unreasonably withheld or
delayed): (1) the Resort Expansion Parcels released or reconveyed hereunder
shall not result in the elimination of more than thirty (30) existing hotel
rooms and/or any material resort amenity other than the existing tennis courts
and putting course shown on Exhibit "R-1"; (2) Borrower shall have obtained all
discretionary governmental approvals necessary to entitle the development rights
of the Resort Expansion Project to be developed on such Resort Expansion Parcel
(without any material adverse effect in relation to the Remaining Property) as
required by the municipal (whether city and/or county) governmental agencies
having jurisdiction to make land use and planning determinations regarding such
Resort Expansion Project (which may include, by way of illustration, any of the
following approvals to the extent required by applicable law: zoning approvals,
conditional use permits, tentative tract map or parcel map approvals or site
plan review); (3) Lender shall have determined that the proposed uses and
structures to be developed on the Resort Expansion Parcel are materially
consistent and/or complementary with the existing uses of the applicable
Property and which could not materially and adversely affect the Remaining
Property; and (4) the rental management program and the documents evidencing
same shall be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Lender and
collaterally assigned to Lender together with all gross revenue (less only bona
fide commissions paid to cooperating brokers and sales agents of the applicable
Borrower Subsidiary on an arms length basis) generated pursuant to such program
from the Resort Expansion Parcel. Borrower shall (a) cause such Resort Expansion
Parcel to be developed (if at all) with uses and structures materially
consistent and/or complementary with the existing uses of the applicable
Property and (b) cause all gross revenue generated from the Resort Expansion
Parcel (less only bona fide commissions paid to cooperating brokers and sales
agents of the applicable Borrower Subsidiary on an arms length basis) to be
collaterally assigned to Lender. The foregoing covenants of Borrower shall
survive the release of any such property.
(d) Existing Parking Parcels: From and after the Prepayment Lockout
Release Date, Borrower may request that Lender release from the lien of the
Security Instrument yet-to-be-determined portions of the parking lots and/or
existing tennis courts which serve the Doral Property which are depicted on the
maps attached hereto as Exhibit "R-2" (the GREEN VIEW PARCEL), Exhibit "R-3"
(the AQUA VIEW PARCEL) and Exhibit R-4 (the SPA VIEW PARCEL, and together with
the Green View Parcel and Aqua View Parcel, each, an EXISTING PARKING PARCEL,
and collectively the EXISTING PARKING PARCELS). The release price for each
Existing Parking Parcel shall be Zero Dollars ($0).
52
Prior to releasing or reconveying any such property from the Loan,
Borrower shall have satisfied the General Release Conditions. Additionally,
prior to requesting a release or reconveyance of all or any part of an Existing
Parking Parcel, Borrower shall furnish to Lender for its review and approval,
which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, an alternative interim and
final parking plan to replace parking located on such Existing Parking Parcel
with parking elsewhere on the applicable Property, which parking plan shall also
include a description of the portion or portions of the Existing Parking Parcel
that Borrower requests be released or reconveyed. The parking plan submitted by
Borrower shall include evidence reasonably satisfactory to Lender that the
interim and final replacement parking, together with other parking lots located
on any other Existing Parking Parcel, (i) will comply in all material respects
with laws or granted governmental approvals applicable to parking requirements
(including, without limitation, the number of required spaces for the
then-existing uses of the applicable Property and the size, configuration and
location of such spaces), and (ii) will not materially and adversely affect the
value, use or operation of the applicable Property. Lender's approval (not to be
unreasonably withheld or delayed) of such parking plan shall be a condition to
the release or reconveyance of all or any part of an Existing Parking Parcel. If
and to the extent the approved parking plan provides for continued use of all or
any part of the Existing Parking Parcel for parking, the same shall no longer
constitute an Existing Parking Parcel hereunder unless and until Borrower shall
have furnished to Lender, and Lender shall have approved, a revised parking plan
(in conformity with the foregoing requirements) that provides that the same is
not required for use for parking. Borrower shall (i) in the case of each
Existing Parking Parcel (or portion thereof) that is transferred to an Affiliate
of Borrower, cause such Existing Parking Parcel (or portion thereof) to be
developed (if at all) with uses and structures materially consistent and/or
complementary with the existing uses at the applicable Property, and (ii) in the
case of each Existing Parking Parcel (or portion thereof) that is transferred to
any person or entity that is not an Affiliate of Borrower, impose deed
restrictions (which run with the land) or obtain such transferee's covenant
(which, in either case, shall be enforceable by the owner of the applicable
Remaining Property and its successors and assigns) to be developed as provided
in clause (i) above. Borrower shall further covenant and agree to enforce,
consistent with Borrower's reasonable business judgment, such transferee's deed
restrictions and covenants. Lender's approval (which shall not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed) of the deed restrictions or covenants provided for in
clause (ii) above shall be an additional condition to the release or
reconveyance of any Existing Parking Parcel or portion thereof. The foregoing
covenants of Borrower shall survive the release of any such property.
(e) Other Out-Parcels: Borrower may request a release from the Lien of
the Security Instrument yet-to-be-determined portions of the outlying parcels
(or Borrower's beneficial interest therein) at the La Quinta Property and the
Doral Property which are generally depicted on the maps attached hereto as
Exhibits "R-5" (Gold View Parcel), Exhibit R-6" (PGA WEST CORE PARCELS; each of
Gold View and each PGA West Core Parcel are individually referred to herein as
an OTHER OUT-PARCEL and collectively are referred to herein as the OTHER
OUT-PARCELS). The release price for each Other Out-Parcel shall be Zero Dollars
$0.
Prior to releasing any such property from the Loan, Borrower shall
have satisfied the General Release Conditions. Additionally, Borrower shall (i)
in the case of each Other Out-Parcel (or portion thereof)) that is transferred
to an affiliate of Borrower, cause such parcel (or portion thereof) to be
developed (if at all) with uses and structures materially consistent and/or
53
complementary with the existing uses at the applicable Property, and (ii) in the
case of each Other Out-Parcel (or portion thereof) that is transferred to any
person or entity that is not an affiliate of Borrower, impose deed restrictions
(which run with the land) or obtain such transferee's covenant (which, in either
case, shall be enforceable by the owner of the applicable Remaining Property and
its successors and assigns) to be developed as provided in clause (i) above.
Borrower shall further covenant and agree to enforce, consist of the Borrower's
reasonable judgment, such transferee's deed restrictions and covenants. Lender's
approval (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of the deed
restrictions or covenants provided for in clause (ii) above shall be an
additional condition to the release or reconveyance of any Other Out-Parcel or
portion thereof. The foregoing covenants of Borrower shall survive the release
of any such property.
(f) Silver Course: From and after the Prepayment Lockout Release Date,
Borrower may release from the Lien of the Security Instrument the existing legal
parcel identified on the map attached hereto as Exhibit R-6 (the SILVER COURSE).
Silver Course shall only be released if the General Release Conditions are
complied with. The release price for the Silver Course shall be Zero Dollars $0.
(g) Future Cooperation: Lender acknowledges that Borrower may seek
Lender's consent to release or reconfigure certain portions of the "Red Course"
and "Gold Course" at the Doral Property and certain other parking and tennis
arrangements located at or within each Property generally. Any consent by Lender
to such release or reconfiguring will be subject to Borrower's satisfaction of
the General Release Conditions and such other conditions as Lender (or Servicer
on Lender's behalf) shall reasonably impose; however, such releases shall not
require any prepayment of the Loan. Additionally, Lender acknowledges that
Borrower may seek Lender's consent to (i) expand the number of rooms at the
Claremont Property and (ii) sell certain private golf clubs, tennis and
associated facilities at the Property. Any consent by Lender to such expansion
projects or sales will be subject to Borrower's satisfaction of the applicable
General Release Conditions and such other conditions as Lender (or Servicer on
Lender's behalf) shall reasonably impose. Lender hereby pre-approves (i)
Borrower's right to seek zoning and development entitlements (x) to expand the
room count at the Claremont Property and (y) relative to parcels subject to
release pursuant to this Section 2.3.5 (provided such releases would not result
in a material adverse affect on the use or value of the remainder of the
Property not subject to release).
2.3.6 RELEASE OF CLAREMONT PROPERTY. From and after the Closing
Date, and subject to satisfaction of each of the conditions set forth in
paragraphs (a) and (b) below, and in addition to Borrower's option to defease
the principal amounts allocated to the Claremont Property under Section 2.3.4
above, Borrower may obtain (i) the release of the Claremont Property from the
Lien of the Security Instrument thereon and related Loan Documents, (ii) the
release of the obligations of the Borrowers under the Loan Documents (except
with respect to any obligations or liabilities that relate solely to the
Claremont Property and which pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents are
expressly stated to survive any such release or payment of the Loan) and (iii)
the remittance to Borrower of any amounts held in any Collateral Accounts
specifically relating to, or otherwise equitably allocable to, the Claremont
Property:
54
(a) (i) Borrower shall have paid the Yield Maintenance Premium for the
Claremont Property in connection with such prepayment of the Loan, (ii) each
Mezzanine Borrower shall have prepaid each of the Mezzanine Loans by the
applicable "release amount" that is required to be repaid with respect to a
release of the Claremont Property.
(b) Borrower shall submit to Lender not less than fifteen (15) days
prior to the date of such release (which must be on a Business Day) Release
Instruments (and related Loan Documents) for the Claremont Property (for
execution by Lender) in a form appropriate in the applicable state and otherwise
satisfactory to Lender in its reasonable discretion and all other documentation
Lender reasonably requires to be delivered by Borrower in connection with such
release for the Claremont Property (for execution by Lender) together with an
Officer's Certificate certifying that (i) the Release Instruments are in
compliance with all Legal Requirements, (ii) the release to be effected will not
violate the terms of this Agreement, (iii) the release to be effected will not
impair or otherwise adversely affect the Liens, security interests and other
rights of Lender under the Loan Documents not being released (or as to the
parties to the Loan Documents and Properties subject to the Loan Documents not
being released), (iv) Mortgage Borrower General Partner has withdrawn and been
replaced as the general partner of the Claremont Borrower.
2.3.7 FURTHER ASSURANCES. To the extent any Release Instrument
executed and delivered under Section 2.3.4(b) or Section 2.3.6(b) or any
Outparcel Release Instrument executed and delivered under Section 2.3.5(a) is
insufficient to effect the release to be effected in accordance with the terms
hereof, Lender (and any servicer in connection with a Securitization) shall
remain obligated to execute and deliver, at the expense of the Borrower, such
further Release Instruments or Outparcel Release Instruments as Borrower may
reasonably request and submit to Lender, together with an Officer's Certificate
covering the matters to be covered in the Officer's Certificate described in
Section 2.3.4(f), Section 2.3.6(b) or Section 2.3.5(a).
SECTION 2.4 REGULATORY CHANGE; TAXES.
2.4.1 INCREASED COSTS. If, at any time prior to the first
Securitization of the Loan, as a result of any Regulatory Change or compliance
of Lender therewith, the basis of taxation of payments to Lender of the
principal of or interest on the Loan is changed or Lender or the company
Controlling Lender shall be subject to (i) any tax, duty, charge or withholding
of any kind with respect to this Agreement (excluding federal taxation of the
overall net income of Lender); or (ii) any reserve, special deposit or similar
requirements relating to any extensions of credit or other assets of, or any
deposits with or other liabilities, of Lender or any company Controlling Lender
is imposed, modified or deemed applicable; or (iii) any other condition
affecting loans to borrowers with fixed interest rates is imposed on Lender or
any company Controlling Lender and Lender determines that, by reason thereof,
the cost to Lender or any company Controlling Lender of making, maintaining or
extending the Loan to Borrower is increased, or any amount receivable by Lender
or any company Controlling Lender hereunder in respect of any portion of the
Loan to Borrower is reduced, in each case by an amount deemed by Lender in good
faith to be material (such increases in cost and reductions in amounts
receivable being herein called INCREASED COSTS), then Lender shall provide
notice thereof to Borrower and Borrower agrees that it will pay to Lender upon
Lender's written request such additional amount or amounts as will compensate
Lender or any company Controlling Lender for such Increased
55
Costs to the extent Lender determines that such Increased Costs are allocable to
the Loan and provided that Lender is generally exercising rights similar to
those set forth in this Section 2.4.1 against other borrowers similarly situated
to Borrower. Lender will notify Borrower of any event occurring after the date
hereof which will entitle Lender to compensation pursuant to this Section 2.4.1
as promptly as practicable after it obtains knowledge thereof and determines to
request such compensation; provided, however, that, if Lender fails to deliver a
notice within 90 days after the date on which an officer of Lender responsible
for overseeing this Agreement knows or has reason to know of its right to
additional compensation under this Section 2.4.1, Lender shall only be entitled
to additional compensation for any such Increased Costs incurred from and after
the date that is 90 days prior to the date Borrower received such notice. If
Lender requests compensation under this Section 2.4.1, Borrower may, by notice
to Lender, require that Lender furnish to Borrower a statement setting forth the
basis for requesting such compensation and the method for determining the amount
thereof, and a description as to why Section 2.4.1 is not applicable.
2.4.2 SPECIAL TAXES. At all times prior to the first Securitization
of the Loan, Borrower shall make all payments hereunder free and clear of and
without deduction for Special Taxes. If, at any time prior to the first
Securitization of the Loan, Borrower shall be required by law to deduct any
Special Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under any other
Loan Document to Lender, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as may be
necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions
applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.4.2) Lender receives
an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been
made, (ii) Borrower shall make such deductions, and (iii) Borrower shall pay the
full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with
applicable law.
2.4.3 OTHER TAXES. In addition, for all periods prior to the first
Securitization of the Loan, Borrower agrees to pay any present or future stamp
or documentary taxes or other excise or property taxes, charges, or similar
levies which arise from any payment made hereunder, or from the execution,
delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement, the
other Loan Documents, or the Loan (hereinafter referred to as OTHER TAXES).
2.4.4 INDEMNITY. Borrower shall indemnify Lender for all periods
prior to the first Securitization of the Loan, for the full amount of Special
Taxes and Other Taxes (including any Special Taxes or Other Taxes imposed by any
Governmental Authority on amounts payable under this Section 2.4.4) paid by
Lender and any liability (including penalties, interest, and expenses) arising
therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Special Taxes or Other
Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. This indemnification shall be made
within thirty (30) days after the date Lender makes written demand therefor.

the event funds sufficient for a required transfer are held in an appropriate
Sub-Account and Lender or Cash Management Bank fails to timely make any transfer
from such Sub-Account as contemplated by this Agreement. In addition, Lender
shall permit Borrower to have "real time" informational access to the Collection
Account and Holding Account so that Borrower has an opportunity to discern any
shortfall of all amounts required to be paid hereunder.
(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in the
Security Instrument, but subject to Section 7.3, to the extent that Borrower
shall fail to pay any mortgage recording tax, costs, expenses or other amounts

permitted or required under this Agreement, Lender shall, provided no Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing, disburse to the Borrower funds from the

deposited in such accounts immediately prior to such disbursement as the amount
of the Loan prepaid by the Borrower bears to the total Debt outstanding
immediately prior to such Prepayment.
(e) Borrower hereby irrevocably directs that all Excess Cash Flow shall
(in lieu of transferring such funds to the Borrower's Account as Borrower may
have so directed): (i) to the extent Lender has received a First Mezzanine Loan
Default Notice and until such time as Lender receives a First Mezzanine Loan

Deposit Account for application as provided in the First Mezzanine Loan
Agreement, (ii) provided Lender has not received a First Mezzanine Loan Default
Notice but has received a Second Mezzanine Loan Default Notice and until such
time as Lender receives a Second Mezzanine Loan Default Revocation Notice, be
deposited directly in the Second Mezzanine Loan Account, (iii) provided Lender
has not received a First Mezzanine Loan Default Notice, or a Second Mezzanine
Loan Default Notice, but has received a Third Mezzanine Loan Default Notice and
until such time as Lender receives a Third Mezzanine Loan Default Revocation
Notice, be deposited directly in the Third Mezzanine Loan Account, (iv) provided
Lender has not received a First Mezzanine Loan Default Notice, a Second
Mezzanine Loan Default Notice, or a Third Mezzanine Loan Default Notice, but has
received a Fourth Mezzanine Loan Default Notice and until such time as Lender
receives a Fourth Mezzanine Loan Default Revocation Notice, be deposited
directly in the Fourth Mezzanine Loan Account, and (v) provided Lender has not
received a First Mezzanine Loan Default Notice, a Second Mezzanine Loan Default
Notice, a Third Mezzanine Loan Default Notice, or a Fourth Mezzanine Loan
Default Notice, but, if the Fifth Mezzanine Loan has been funded on or before
the Outside Date, and Lender has received a Fifth Mezzanine Loan Default Notice
and until such time as Lender receives a notice from Fifth Mezzanine Lender that
such Event of Default is no longer continuing (a FIFTH MEZZANINE LOAN DEFAULT
REVOCATION NOTICE), be deposited directly in the Fifth Mezzanine Loan Account.
The direction set forth in the immediately preceding sentence shall not be
changed or terminated without the written consent of each Mezzanine Lender.

Notice shall be required for the deposit of Proceeds into the respective
Mezzanine Loan Deposit Account in accordance with the terms of Section 6.2.3
hereof.

acts, things and deeds for and on behalf of and in the name of Borrower, which
Borrower could or might do or which Lender may deem necessary or desirable to
more fully vest in Lender the rights and remedies provided for herein and to

liable or responsible for any loss or damage to any of the Account Collateral,
or for any diminution in value thereof, by reason of the act or omission of
Lender, its Affiliates, agents, employees or bailees, except to the extent that
such loss or damage results from Lender's gross negligence or willful
misconduct. In no event shall Lender be liable either directly or indirectly for
losses or delays resulting from any event which may be the basis of an Excusable

it to incur any expense or liability or to institute or defend any suit in
respect hereof, or to advance any of its own monies. Borrower shall indemnify
and hold Lender, its employees and officers harmless from and against any loss,
cost or damage (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and
disbursements) incurred by Lender in connection with the transactions
contemplated hereby with respect to the Account Collateral (excluding losses on
70
Permitted Investments) except as such may be caused by the gross negligence or
willful misconduct of Lender, its employees, officers or agents.
(b) Lender shall be protected in acting upon any notice, resolution,
request, consent, order, certificate, report, opinion, bond or other paper,
document or signature believed by it in good faith to be genuine, and, in so
acting, it may be assumed that any person purporting to give any of the
foregoing in connection with the provisions hereof has been duly authorized to
do so. Lender may consult with counsel, and the opinion of such counsel shall be
full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or
suffered by it hereunder and in good faith in accordance therewith.

continuing security interest in the Account Collateral and shall remain in full

Improvements, so as to have a Material Adverse Effect on the value or
marketability of the Real Property except those which are insured against by the
Title Policy.
4.1.27 LEASES. The Property is not subject to any Material Leases
other than the Affiliate Leases and the Leases described in the certified rent
roll delivered in connection with the origination of the Loan. To the Best of
Borrower's Knowledge (which shall include Borrower's consultation with Manager),
such certified rent roll is true, complete and correct in all material respects
as of the date set forth therein. Except as described in the Ground Leases, no
Person has any possessory interest in the Property or right to occupy the same
(other than typical short-term occupancy rights of hotel guests which are not
the subject of a written agreement) except under and pursuant to the provisions
of the Leases. To the Best
77
of Borrower's Knowledge, the current Leases are in full force and effect and
there are no material defaults thereunder by either party (other than as
expressly disclosed on the certified rent roll delivered to Lender or the Tenant
estoppel certificates delivered to Lender in connection with the closing of the
Loan) and there are no conditions that, with the passage of time or the giving
of notice, or both, would constitute material defaults thereunder. To the Best
of Borrower's Knowledge, all construction and other obligations of a material
nature to be performed by the Borrower under the Leases have been satisfied and)
any required payments by Borrower to the Tenants under the Leases for tenant
improvements have been made to the extent required to be satisfied. To the Best
of Borrower's Knowledge, no Tenant under any Lease is entitled to any offsets,
abatements, deductions against the Rent payable under any Lease from and after
the date hereof. To the Best of Borrower's Knowledge, the Rent has been paid
current under the Leases. To the Best of Borrower's Knowledge, no Rent has been
paid more than one (1) month in advance of its due date, except as disclosed in
the Tenant estoppel certificates delivered to Lender in connection with the
closing of the Loan. There has been no prior sale, transfer or assignment,
hypothecation or pledge by Borrower of any Lease or of the Rents received
therein, which will be outstanding following the funding of the Loan, other than
those being assigned to Lender concurrently herewith. No Tenant or other Person
under any Lease or other agreement has any right or option pursuant to such
Lease or other agreement or otherwise to purchase all or any part of the
Property (except with respect to the options in the PGA Agreements which are
fully insured over by the Title Policy). Lender hereby agrees that on the date
Borrower delivers to Lender a "clean" tenant estoppel certificate in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit G regarding any Lease for which Borrower has not
delivered a tenant estoppel certificate to Lender on the date hereof (each such
Lease, a CERTIFYING LEASE), Borrower's representations in this Section 4.1.27
with respect to such Certifying Lease shall automatically expire.
4.1.28 FILING AND RECORDING TAXES. All transfer taxes, deed stamps,
intangible taxes or other amounts in the nature of transfer taxes required to be
paid by any Person under applicable Legal Requirements currently in effect in
connection with the transfer of the Property to Borrower have been paid and the
granting and recording of the Security Instrument and the UCC financing
statements required to be filed in connection with the Loan. All mortgage,
mortgage recording, stamp, intangible or other similar tax required to be paid
by any Person under applicable Legal Requirements currently in effect in
connection with the execution, delivery, recordation, filing, registration,
perfection or enforcement of any of the Loan Documents, including, without
limitation, the Security Instrument, have been paid, and, under current Legal
Requirements, the Security Instrument is enforceable against Borrower in
accordance with its terms by Lender (or any subsequent holder thereof) subject
only to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws affecting rights of
creditors generally, and subject as to enforceability, to general principles of
equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or
at law).
4.1.29 SINGLE PURPOSE ENTITY/SEPARATENESS.
(a) Borrower hereby represents, warrants and covenants that each of
Borrower and Borrower Subsidiary is, and, except as set forth on Schedule X, has
been since the date of its formation, a Single Purpose Entity.
(b) All of the assumptions made in the Non-Consolidation Opinion,
including, but not limited to, any exhibits attached thereto and any
certificates delivered by Borrower in connection with the issuance of the
Non-Consolidation Opinion, are true and correct in all respects and any
assumptions made in any subsequent non-consolidation opinion delivered in
connection with the Loan Documents (an ADDITIONAL NON-CONSOLIDATION OPINION),
including, but not limited to, any exhibits attached thereto, are true and
correct in all material respects. Borrower has complied with all of the
assumptions made with respect to it in the Non-Consolidation Opinion. To the
Best of Borrower's Knowledge, each entity other than Borrower with respect to
which an assumption shall be made in any Additional Non-Consolidation Opinion
will have complied and will comply with all of the assumptions made with respect
to it in any Additional Non-Consolidation Opinion.
78
4.1.30 MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT. The Management Agreement is in full
force and effect and there is no default thereunder by any party thereto and no

would constitute a default thereunder. The Manager is not an Affiliate of
Borrower.
4.1.31 ILLEGAL ACTIVITY. No portion of the Property has been or will
be purchased with proceeds of any illegal activity.
4.1.32 BORROWER AND BORROWER SUBSIDIARIES SPE COMPLIANCE. Each
Borrower represents on behalf of itself and on behalf of each Borrower
Subsidiary that Borrower Subsidiary and Borrower (i) is and always has been duly
formed, validly existing, and in good standing in the state of its incorporation
or organization and in all other jurisdictions where it is qualified to do
business, (ii) is a Single Purpose Entity, (iii) has no judgements or liens of

as specifically addressed and analyzed in the Non-Consolidation Opinion.

extensions for filing) all federal, state and local tax returns required to be
filed and has paid or made adequate provision for the payment of all federal,
state and local taxes, charges and assessments payable by Borrower.
4.1.34 SOLVENCY/FRAUDULENT CONVEYANCE. Borrower (a) has not entered
into the transaction contemplated by this Agreement or any Loan Document with
the actual intent to hinder, delay, or defraud any creditor and (b) has received
reasonably equivalent value in exchange for its obligations under the Loan
Documents. After giving effect to the Loan, the fair saleable value of
Borrower's assets exceeds and will, immediately following the making of the
Loan, exceed Borrower's total liabilities, including, without limitation,
subordinated, unliquidated, disputed and contingent liabilities. The fair
saleable value of Borrower's assets is and will, immediately following the
making of the Loan, be greater than Borrower's probable liabilities, including
the maximum amount of its contingent liabilities on its Debts as such Debts
become absolute and matured. Borrower's assets do not and, immediately following
the making of the Loan will not, constitute unreasonably small capital to carry
out its business as conducted or as proposed to be conducted. Borrower does not
intend to, and does not believe that it will, incur Debt and liabilities
(including contingent liabilities and other commitments) beyond its ability to
pay such Debt and liabilities as they mature (taking into account the timing and
amounts of cash to be received by Borrower and the amounts to be payable on or
in respect of obligations of Borrower).

company or a company Controlled by an investment company, within the meaning of

forth on attached Schedule XI, no union claims to represent the employees and
other laborers at the Property. Except as set forth on attached Schedule XI,
none of the employees or other laborers is represented by any labor
organization, and, to the Best of Borrower's Knowledge, there are no current
union organizing activities among the employees and other laborers at the
Property, nor does any question concerning representation exist concerning such
employees. None of the matters set forth on attached Schedule XI would, if
determined against Borrower or Guarantor have a Material Adverse Effect on any
individual Property or all of the Property (except this representation shall not
apply to the Claremont Property). With respect to the Claremont Property, none
of the matters set forth on attached Schedule XI are, if determined against
Borrower or Guarantor, reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect on

Knowledge, Lender has dealt with any broker or finder with respect to the
transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents and neither party has done any

Loan Documents. Borrower covenants and agrees that it shall pay as and when due
any and all brokerage fees, charges, commissions or other compensation or
reimbursement due to any broker of Borrower with respect to the transactions
contemplated by the Loan Documents. Borrower and Lender shall each indemnify and
hold harmless the other from and against any loss, liability, cost or expense,
including any judgments, attorneys' fees, or costs of appeal, incurred by the
other party and arising out of or relating to any claim for brokerage
commissions or finder's fees alleged to be due as a result of the indemnifying

5.1.11 FURTHER ASSURANCES; SEPARATE NOTES.
(a) Borrower shall, at its cost and expense (subject to the limitations
set forth in Article XIV), execute and acknowledge (or cause to be executed and
acknowledged) and deliver to Lender all documents, and take all actions,
reasonably required by Lender from time to time to confirm the rights created or
now or hereafter intended to be created under this Agreement and the other
85
Loan Documents and any security interest created or purported to be created
thereunder, to protect and further the validity, priority and enforceability of
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, to subject to the Loan Documents
any property of Borrower intended by the terms of any one or more of the Loan
Documents to be encumbered by the Loan Documents, or otherwise carry out the
purposes of the Loan Documents and the transactions contemplated thereunder.
Borrower agrees that it shall, upon request, reasonably cooperate with Lender in
connection with any request by Lender to sever the Note into two (2) or more
separate substitute or component notes in an aggregate principal amount equal to
the Principal Amount and to reapportion the Loan among such separate substitute
notes, including, without limitation, by executing and delivering to Lender new
substitute or component notes to replace the Note, amendments to or replacements
of existing Loan Documents to reflect such severance and/or Opinions of Counsel
with respect to such substitute or component notes, amendments and/or
replacements, and the holders of such substitute or component notes shall
designate a lead lender or agent for such holders to whom Borrower may direct
all communications with respect to the Loan. Any such substitute or component
notes may have varying principal amounts and economic terms, provided, however,
that (i) the maturity date of any such substitute or component notes shall be
the same as the scheduled Maturity Date of the Note immediately prior to the
issuance of such substitute notes, (ii) the substitute notes shall bear interest
at a fixed rate of interest; (iii) the initial weighted average interest rates
for the term of the substitute notes shall not exceed the interest rate under
the Note immediately prior to the issuance of such substitute notes; and (iv)
the economics of the Loan, taken as a whole, shall not change in a manner which
is adverse to Borrower. Borrower acknowledges that in connection with a
Securitization, the Note will be surrendered by Borrower to Lender and Borrower
will be required to enter into new substitute replacement notes which,
preliminarily, may consist of multiple pari passu and/or sequential classes of
notes and may also include interest only classes of notes (class "X") (although
Borrowers hereby acknowledge that such classes are not final and that Lender may
structure such classes in its sole and absolute discretion provided such
structure is in compliance with the terms of this Agreement). Upon the
occurrence and during the continuance of a material Event of Default (as
determined by Lender in its sole and absolute discretion), Lender may apply
payment of all sums due under such substitute notes in such order and priority
as Lender shall elect in its sole and absolute discretion.
(b) Borrower further agrees that if, in connection with the
Securitization, it is determined by the Rating Agencies that a portion of the
Securitization would not receive an "investment grade" rating unless the
principal amount of the Loan were to be decreased and, as a result, the
principal amount of the Loan is decreased, then (i) the Borrower shall take all
actions as are necessary to effect the "resizing" of the Mezzanine Loans and the
Loan, including any new mezzanine loans that Lender requires Borrower to enter
into (provided the documents evidencing and securing such new loan(s) are
substantially identical in form and substance to the Mezzanine Loan Documents
(and shall have the same lockout and prepayment restrictions as the Loan), (ii)
the Borrower shall cause the Mezzanine Borrowers to comply with its agreements
to effect a "resizing", and (iii) Lender shall on the date of the "resizing" of
the Loan lend to the respective Mezzanine Borrowers (by way of a repayment of
the principal amount of the Loan and the Mezzanine Loans) such additional amount
equal to the amount of the principal reduction of the Loan (in which case the
Liquidated Damages Amount shall be inapplicable to such repayment), provided,
Borrower and Mezzanine Borrowers shall execute and deliver any and all necessary
amendments or modifications to the Loan Documents and the Mezzanine Loan
Documents. In addition, Borrower and Lender agree that if, in connection with
the Securitization, it is determined by the Rating Agencies that, if the
principal amount of the Mezzanine Loan were to
86
be decreased and, as a result the principal amount of the Loan were increased,
more "investment grade" rated securities could be issued, then (i) if "resizing"
to decrease the size of the Mezzanine Loans and increase the size of the Loan is
provided for in the Mezzanine Loan Documents, each of them shall take all
actions provided for in the documentation for the Loan as are necessary to
effect the "resizing" of the Loan and the Mezzanine Loans, (ii) Borrower shall
cause the Mezzanine Borrowers to comply with its agreements to effect a
"resizing" and (iii) Lender shall on the date of the "resizing" of the Loan lend
to the Borrower (by way of a reallocation of the principal amount of the Loan
and the Mezzanine Loans) an additional amount equal to the amount of principal
reduction of the Mezzanine Loans, provided that Borrower and Mezzanine Borrowers
execute and deliver any and all necessary modifications to the Loan Documents
and Mezzanine Loan Documents, including, without limitation, loan agreements,
pledge agreements and guarantees. In connection with the foregoing, Borrower
agrees to execute and deliver such documents and other agreements reasonably
required by any Mezzanine Lender and/or Lender to "re-size" the Loan and the
Mezzanine Loans, including, without limitation, an amendment to this Agreement,
the Note, the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents and, if the
principal amount of the Loan is increased, an endorsement to the Title Policy
reflecting an increase in the insured amount thereunder and confirmation that
Borrower has paid additional mortgage recording taxes as may be applicable. In
addition, at Lender's election, Borrower agrees to reimburse Lender for all
costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees
and expenses) incurred by Lender in connection with any "resizing" of the Loan
and to pay for any "Eagle 9" or other UCC insurance reasonably required by
Lender in connection therewith and deliver opinions of counsel similar to those
delivered on the date hereof with respect to Mezzanine Borrowers and the
Mezzanine Loans. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender agrees that any
"resizing" of the Loan and the Mezzanine Loans shall not change the economics of
the Loan and the Mezzanine Loans taken as a whole in a manner which is adverse
to Borrower (except any increase in the weighted average interest rate of the
Notes that may result if certain prepayments of the Loan are made in accordance
with the terms hereof after and which are unrelated to any such "resizing").
(c) In addition to the foregoing, in connection with creating substitute
or component notes, Lender shall have the right, without otherwise increasing or
reducing the aggregate amount of interest payable by the Borrower hereunder, to
(i) create one or more component notes representing so-called "interest strips,"
that do not have a stated principal balance but represent an entitlement to
certain interest (or Default Rate interest) payments that may be payable by the
Borrower and (ii) reapportion the interest payable by the Borrower following the
Maturity Date, such that a portion of interest at the Applicable Rate and/or
Default Rate interest is applied first in reduction of the principal balance of
the Loan or paid into a deferred interest reserve account. Additionally, such
component notes may provide that Default Rate interest is used to repay Servicer
advances and interest thereon.
(d) In addition, Borrower shall, at Borrower's sole cost and expense:
(i) furnish to Lender, to the extent not otherwise already
furnished to Lender and reasonably acceptable to Lender, all instruments,
documents, boundary surveys, footing or foundation surveys, certificates, plans
and specifications, appraisals, title and other insurance reports and
agreements, and each and every other document, certificate, agreement and
instrument required to be furnished by Borrower pursuant to the terms of the
Loan Documents;
87
(ii) execute and deliver, from time to time, such further
instruments (including, without limitation, delivery of any financing statements
under the UCC) as may be reasonably requested by Lender to confirm the Lien of
the Security Instrument on any Building Equipment, Operating Asset or any
Intangible;
(iii) execute and deliver to Lender such documents, instruments,
certificates, assignments and other writings, and do such other acts necessary
to evidence, preserve and/or protect the collateral at any time securing or
intended to secure the obligations of Borrower under the Loan Documents, as
Lender may reasonably require;
(iv) do and execute all and such further lawful and reasonable
acts, conveyances and assurances for the carrying out of the terms and
conditions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, as Lender shall
reasonably require from time to time; and
(v) cause its New York counsel to re-issue the New York opinion
delivered on the date hereof (in identical form and without updating) in favor
of a trustee in a Securitization if such trustee is different that the trustee
currently listed in such opinion.
5.1.12 MORTGAGE TAXES. Borrower shall pay all taxes, charges,
filing, registration and recording fees, excises and levies payable with respect

its equivalent by the other Rating Agencies) in the case of insurance coverage
required under Sections 6.1.2, 6.1.3 and 6.1.5 through 6.1.12 (provided,
however, any earthquake insurance required hereunder may be provided by insurers
with lower claims paying ratings). All insurers providing insurance required by
this Agreement shall be authorized to issue insurance in the applicable State.
6.1.13 FORM OF INSURANCE POLICIES; ENDORSEMENTS. All policies (i)
shall name Lender and its successors and/or assigns as their interest may appear
as an additional insured or as a loss payee, shall provide that all Proceeds
(except with respect to Proceeds of general liability and workers' compensation
insurance) be payable to Lender as and to the extent set forth in Section 6.2;
(ii) shall contain a Non-Contributory Standard Lender Clause and, except with
respect to general liability insurance and workers' compensation insurance, a
Lender's Loss Payable Endorsement, or their equivalents; (iii) shall include
effective waivers by the insurer of all claims for insurance premiums against
all loss payees, additional insureds and named insureds (other than Borrower)
and all rights of subrogation against any loss payee, additional insured or
named insured; (iv) shall be assigned to Lender; (v) except as otherwise
provided above, shall be subject to a deductible, if any, not greater in any
material respect than the deductible for such coverage on the date hereof; (vi)
shall contain such provisions as Lender deems reasonably necessary or desirable
to protect its interest, including endorsements providing that neither
97
Borrower, Lender nor any other party shall be a Contributor-insurer (except
deductibles) under said Policies and that no material modification, reduction,
cancellation or termination in amount of, or material change (other than an
increase) in, coverage of any of the Policies shall be effective until at least
thirty (30) days after receipt by each named insured, additional insured and
loss payee of written notice thereof or ten (10) days after receipt of such
notice with respect to nonpayment of premium; (vii) shall permit Lender to pay
the premiums and continue any insurance upon failure of Borrower to pay premiums
when due, upon the insolvency of Borrower or through foreclosure or other
transfer of title to the Property (it being understood that Borrower's rights to
coverage under such policies may not be assignable without the consent of the
insurer); and (viii) shall provide that any proceeds shall be payable to Lender
and Borrower as their interests may appear and that the insurance shall not be
impaired or invalidated by virtue of (A) any act, failure to act, negligence of,
or violation of declarations, warranties or conditions contained in such policy
by the Borrower, Lender or any other named insured, additional insured or loss
payee, except for the willful misconduct of Lender knowingly in violation of the
conditions of such policy, (B) the occupation, use, operation or maintenance of
the Property for purposes more hazardous than permitted by the terms of the
Policy, (C) any foreclosure or other proceeding or notice of sale relating to
the Property, or (D) any change in the possession of the Property without a
change in the identity of the holder of actual title to the Property (provided
that with respect to items (C) and (D), any notice requirements of the
applicable Policies are satisfied).
6.1.14 PREMIUMS; CERTIFICATES; RENEWALS.
(a) Borrower shall pay or cause to be paid the premiums for such Policies
(the INSURANCE PREMIUMS) as the same become due and payable and shall furnish to
Lender the receipts for the payment of the Insurance Premiums or other evidence
of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Lender (provided, however, that
Borrower is not required to furnish such evidence of payment to Lender if such
Insurance Premiums are to be paid by Lender pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement). Within thirty (30) days after request by Lender, Borrower shall
obtain such increases in the amounts of coverage required hereunder as may be
reasonably requested in writing by Lender or as may be requested in writing by
the Rating Agencies (except with respect to the Terrorism Insurance and
earthquake insurance required hereunder), taking into consideration changes in
liability laws, changes in prudent customs and practices, and the like. In the
event Borrower satisfies the requirements under this Section 6.1.14 through the
use of a Policy covering properties in addition to the Property, then (unless
such policy is provided in substantially the same manner as it is as of the date
hereof), Borrower shall provide evidence satisfactory to Lender that the
Insurance Premiums for the Property are separately allocated under such Policy
to the Property and that payment of such allocated amount (A) shall maintain the
effectiveness of such Policy as to the Property and (B) shall otherwise provide
the same protection as would a separate policy that complies with the terms of
this Agreement as to the Property, notwithstanding the failure of payment of any
other portion of the insurance premiums. If no such allocation is available,
Lender shall have the right to increase the amount required to be deposited into
the Insurance Reserve Account in an amount sufficient to purchase a nonblanket
Policy covering the Property from insurance companies which qualify under this
Agreement.
98
(b) Borrower shall deliver to Lender on or prior to the Closing Date
certificates setting forth in reasonable detail the material terms (including
any applicable notice requirements) of all Policies from the respective
insurance companies (or their authorized agents) that issued the Policies,
including that such Policies may not be canceled or modified in any material
respect without thirty (30) days' prior notice to Lender, or ten (10) days'
notice with respect to nonpayment of premium. Borrower shall deliver to Lender,
concurrently with each change in any Policy, a certificate with respect to such
changed Policy certified by the insurance company issuing that Policy, in
substantially the same form and containing substantially the same information as
the certificates required to be delivered by Borrower pursuant to the first
sentence of this Section 6.14(b) and stating that all premiums then due thereon
have been paid to the applicable insurers and that the same are in full force
and effect (or if such certificates and/or other information are not obtainable
by Borrower, Borrower may deliver an Officer's Certificate to such effect in
lieu thereof).
(c) At the expiration date of the Policies, Borrower shall deliver to
Lender satisfactory evidence of payment of the premium due hereunder and prior
to the expiration, termination or cancellation of any Policy, Borrower shall
renew such policy or obtain a replacement policy or policies (or a binding
commitment for such replacement policy or policies), which shall be effective no
later than the date of the expiration, termination or cancellation of the
previous policy, and shall deliver to Lender a certificate in respect of such
policy or policies (A) containing the same information as the certificates
required to be delivered by Borrower pursuant to clause (b) above, or a copy of
the binding commitment for such policy or policies and (B) confirming that such
policy complies with all requirements hereof.
(d) If Borrower does not furnish to Lender the certificates as required
under clause (c) above, upon three (3) Business Days prior notice to Borrower,
Lender may procure, but shall not be obligated to procure, such replacement
policy or policies and pay the Insurance Premiums therefor, and Borrower agree
to reimburse Lender for the cost of such Insurance Premiums promptly on demand.
(e) Concurrently with the delivery of each replacement policy or a binding
commitment for the same, Borrower shall deliver to Lender a report or
attestation from a duly licensed or authorized insurance broker or from the
insurer, setting forth the particulars as to all insurance obtained by Borrower
pursuant to this Section 6.1 and then in effect and stating that all Insurance
Premiums then due thereon have been paid in full to the applicable insurers,
that such insurance policies are in full force and effect and that, in the
opinion of such insurance broker or insurer, such insurance otherwise complies
with the requirements of this Section 6.1 (or if such report shall not be
available after Borrower shall have used reasonable efforts to provide the same,
Borrower will deliver to Lender an Officer's Certificate containing the
information to be provided in such report).
6.1.15 SEPARATE INSURANCE. Borrower shall not take out separate
insurance contributing in the event of loss with that required to be maintained
pursuant to this Section 6.1 unless such insurance complies with this Section
6.1.
6.1.16 BLANKET POLICIES. The insurance coverage required under this
Section 6.1 may be effected under a blanket policy or policies covering the
Property and other properties and
99
assets not constituting a part of the Property; provided that any such blanket
policy shall specify, except in the case of public liability insurance, the
portion of the total coverage of such policy that is allocated to the Property,
and any sublimits in such blanket policy applicable to the Property, which
amounts shall not be less than the amounts required pursuant to this Section 6.1
and which shall in any case comply in all other respects with the requirements
of this Section 6.1. Upon Lender's request, Borrower shall deliver to Lender an
Officer's Certificate setting forth (i) the number of properties covered by such
policy, (ii) the location by city (if available, otherwise, county) and state of
the properties, (iii) the average square footage of the properties (or the
aggregate square footage), (iv) a brief description of the typical construction
type included in the blanket policy and (v) such other information as Lender may
reasonably request.
6.1.17 SECURITIZATION. Following any Securitization, Borrower shall
name any trustee, servicer or special servicer designated by Lender as a loss
payee, and any trustee, servicer and special servicer as additional insureds,
with respect to any Policy for which Lender is to be so named hereunder.
SECTION 6.2 CONDEMNATION AND INSURANCE PROCEEDS.
6.2.1 RIGHT TO ADJUST.
(a) If the Property is damaged or destroyed, in whole or in part in any
material respect, by a Casualty, Borrower shall give prompt written notice
thereof to Lender, generally describing the nature and extent of such Casualty.
Following the occurrence of a Casualty, Borrower, regardless of whether proceeds
are available, shall in a reasonably prompt manner proceed to restore, repair,
replace or rebuild the Property to the extent practicable to be of at least
equal value and of substantially the same character as prior to the Casualty,
all in accordance with the terms hereof applicable to Alterations.
(b) Subject to clause (e) below, in the event of a Casualty where the loss
does not exceed $5,000,000, Borrower may settle and adjust such claim; provided
that such adjustment is carried out in a competent and timely manner. In such
case, Borrower is hereby authorized to collect and receipt for Lender any
Proceeds.
(c) Subject to clause (e) below, in the event of a Casualty where the loss
exceeds $5,000,000, Borrower may settle and adjust such claim only with the
consent of Lender (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed)
and Lender shall have the opportunity to participate, at Borrower's cost, in any
such adjustments.
(d) The proceeds of any Policy shall be due and payable solely to Lender
and held and applied in accordance with the terms hereof (or, if mistakenly paid
to the Borrower, shall be held in trust by the Borrower for the benefit of
Lender and shall be paid over to Lender by the Borrower within two (2) Business
Days of receipt).
(e) Notwithstanding the terms of clauses (a) and (b) above, Lender shall
have the sole authority to adjust any claim with respect to a Casualty and to
collect all Proceeds if an Event of Default shall have occurred and is
continuing.
100
6.2.2 RIGHT OF THE BORROWER TO APPLY TO RESTORATION. In the event of
(a) a Casualty that does not constitute a Material Casualty, or (b) a
Condemnation that does not constitute a Material Condemnation, Lender shall
permit the application of the Proceeds (after reimbursement of any expenses
incurred by Lender) to reimburse Borrower for the cost of restoring, repairing,
replacing or rebuilding or otherwise curing title defects at the Property (the
Restoration), in the manner required hereby, provided and on the condition that
(1) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be then continuing and (2) in
the reasonable judgment of Lender:
(i) the Property can be restored to an economic unit not materially
less valuable (taking into account the effect of the termination of any Leases
and the proceeds of any rental loss or business interruption insurance which the
Borrower receives or is entitled to receive, in each case, due to such Casualty
or Condemnation) and not materially less useful than the same was prior to the
Casualty or Condemnation,
(ii) the Property, after such Restoration and stabilization, will
adequately secure the outstanding balance of the Loan,
(iii) the Restoration can be completed by the earliest to occur of:
(A) the date on which the business interruption insurance
carried by Borrower with respect to the Property shall expire;
(B) the 180th day prior to the Maturity Date, and
(C) with respect to a Casualty, the expiration of the payment
period on the rental loss or business interruption insurance
coverage in respect of such Casualty; and
(iv) after receiving reasonably satisfactory evidence to such
effect, during the period of the Restoration, the sum of (A) income derived from
each Property (collectively), plus (B) proceeds of rental loss insurance or
business interruption insurance, if any, payable together with such other monies
(including capital contributions) as Borrower may irrevocably make available for
the Restoration, will equal or exceed 105% of the sum of (x) Operating Expenses
and (y) the Debt Service.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any of the conditions set forth in sub-clauses
(1) and (2) of the proviso in this Section 6.2.2 is not satisfied, then, unless
Lender shall otherwise elect, at its sole option, the Proceeds shall be applied
in the following order of priority: (A) first, to prepay the principal of the
Loan up to the Release Amount for such Property; (B) second, to pay the amount
of (1) all accrued and unpaid interest in respect of the Principal Amount of the
Indebtedness so prepaid through the date which is the final day of the Interest
Period in which such prepayment is made (including, if an Event of Default has
occurred and is then continuing, interest owed at the Default Rate), and (2) all
other sums then due and owing under the Loan Documents and (C) third, to
reimburse Lender for any fees and expenses of Lender incurred in connection
therewith (it being agreed that, upon satisfaction in full of the entitlements
under clauses (A), (B) and (C) of this sentence, Borrower shall be entitled to
receive the balance of the Proceeds, if any, and a release of the Lien of the
Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents with respect to the Property in
accordance with and subject to the terms of Section 2.3.3 hereof and any surplus
101
Proceeds shall be paid over to (i) the First Mezzanine Lender to be applied in
accordance with the terms of the First Mezzanine Loan Agreement, or (ii) if the
First Mezzanine Loan is no longer outstanding, to the Second Mezzanine Lender to
be applied in accordance with the terms of the Second Mezzanine Loan Agreement,
or (iii) if the First Mezzanine Loan and Second Mezzanine Loan are no longer
outstanding, to the Third Mezzanine Lender to be applied in accordance with the
terms of the Third Mezzanine Loan Agreement, or (iv) if the First Mezzanine
Loan, Second Mezzanine Loan, and Third Mezzanine Loan are no longer outstanding,
to the Fourth Mezzanine Lender to be applied in accordance with the terms of the
Fourth Mezzanine Loan Agreement, or (v) if the First Mezzanine Loan, Second
Mezzanine Loan, Third Mezzanine Loan, and Fourth Mezzanine Loan are no longer
outstanding, or, if the Fifth Mezzanine Loan is funded by Fifth Mezzanine Lender
on or before the Outside Date, to the Fifth Mezzanine Lender to be applied in
accordance with the terms of the Fifth Mezzanine Loan Agreement, or (vi) if the
First Mezzanine Loan, Second Mezzanine Loan, Third Mezzanine Loan, Fourth
Mezzanine Loan, and Fifth Mezzanine Loan are no longer outstanding, to the
Borrower's Account.
6.2.3 MATERIAL CASUALTY OR CONDEMNATION AND LENDER'S RIGHT TO APPLY
PROCEEDS. In the event of a Material Casualty or a Material Condemnation, then
Lender shall have the option to (i) apply the Proceeds hereof in the following
order of priority: (A) first, to prepay the principal of the Loan up to the
Release Amount for such Property; (B) second, to pay the amount of (1) all
accrued and unpaid interest in respect of the Principal Amount of the
Indebtedness so prepaid through the date which is the final day of the Interest
Period in which such prepayment is made (including, if an Event of Default has
occurred and is then continuing, interest owed at the Default Rate), and (2) all
other sums then due and owing under the Loan Documents; (C) third, to reimburse
Lender for any fees and expenses of Lender incurred in connection therewith; (D)
fourth, the balance of Proceeds shall then be paid to First Mezzanine Lender to
be applied pursuant to the terms of the First Mezzanine Loan Agreement or,
following the repayment of the First Mezzanine Loan to the Second Mezzanine
Lender to be applied pursuant to the terms of the Second Mezzanine Loan
Agreement, or, following the repayment of the First Mezzanine Loan and the
Second Mezzanine Loan, to the Third Mezzanine Lender to be applied pursuant to
the terms of the Third Mezzanine Loan Agreement, or, following the repayment of
the First Mezzanine Loan, the Second Mezzanine Loan, and the Third Mezzanine
Loan, to the Fourth Mezzanine Lender to be applied pursuant to the terms of the
Fourth Mezzanine Loan Agreement, or, following the repayment of the First
Mezzanine Loan, the Second Mezzanine Loan, the Third Mezzanine Loan, and the
Fourth Mezzanine Loan, or, if the Fifth Mezzanine Loan is funded by Fifth
Mezzanine Lender on or before the Outside Date, to the Fifth Mezzanine Lender to
be applied pursuant to the terms of the Fifth Mezzanine Loan Agreement (it being
agreed that, upon satisfaction in full of the entitlements under clauses (A),
(B), (C) and (D) of this sentence, Borrower shall be entitled to receive the
balance of the Proceeds, if any and a release of the Lien of the Security
Instrument and the other Loan Documents with respect to the Property in
accordance with and subject to the terms of Section 2.3.3 hereof), or (ii) make
such Proceeds available to reimburse Borrower for the cost of any Restoration in
the manner set forth below in Section 6.2.4 hereof. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary contained herein, in the event of a Material Casualty or a Material
Condemnation, where Borrower cannot restore, repair, replace or rebuild the
Property to be of at least substantially equal value and of substantially the
same character as prior to the Material Casualty
102
or Material Condemnation or title defect because the Property is a legally
non-conforming use or as a result of any other Legal Requirement, Borrower
hereby agrees that Lender may apply the Proceeds payable in connection therewith
in accordance with clauses (A), (B), (C), and (D).
6.2.4 MANNER OF RESTORATION AND REIMBURSEMENT. If Borrower is
entitled pursuant to Sections 6.2.2 or 6.2.3 above to reimbursement out of
Proceeds (and the conditions specified therein shall have been satisfied), such
Proceeds shall be disbursed on a monthly basis upon Lender being furnished with
(i) such architect's certificates, waivers of lien, contractor's sworn
statements, title insurance endorsements, bonds, plats of survey and such other
evidences of cost, payment and performance as Lender may reasonably require and
approve, and (ii) all plans and specifications for such Restoration, such plans
and specifications to be approved by Lender prior to commencement of any work
(such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). In addition, no
payment made prior to the Final Completion of the Restoration (excluding
punch-list items) shall exceed ninety percent (90%) of the aggregate value of
the work performed from time to time; funds other than Proceeds shall be
disbursed prior to disbursement of such Proceeds; and at all times, the
undisbursed balance of such Proceeds remaining in the hands of Lender, together
with funds deposited for that purpose or irrevocably committed to the
satisfaction of Lender by or on behalf of Borrower for that purpose, shall be at
least sufficient in the reasonable judgment of Lender to pay for the cost of
completion of the Restoration, free and clear of all Liens or claims for Lien.
Prior to any disbursement, Lender shall have received evidence reasonably
satisfactory to it of the estimated cost of completion of the Restoration (such
estimate to be made by Borrower's architect or contractor and approved by Lender
in its reasonable discretion), and Borrower shall have deposited with Lender
Eligible Collateral in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of such estimated
cost of completion over the net Proceeds. Any surplus which may remain out of
Proceeds received pursuant to a Casualty shall be paid to Borrower after payment
of such costs of Restoration. Any surplus which may remain out of Proceeds
received pursuant to a Condemnation shall be delivered to Lender for deposit
into the Holding Account to be held and disbursed in accordance with the terms
of this Agreement.
6.2.5 CONDEMNATION.
(a) Borrower shall promptly give Lender written notice of the actual
commencement or written threat of commencement of any Condemnation and shall
deliver to Lender copies of any and all papers served in connection with such
Condemnation. Following the occurrence of a Condemnation, Borrower, regardless
of whether Proceeds are available, shall promptly proceed to restore, repair,
replace or rebuild the same to the extent practicable to be of at least equal
value and of substantially the same character as prior to such Condemnation, all
to be effected in accordance with the terms hereof applicable to Alterations.
(b) Lender is hereby irrevocably appointed as Borrower's attorney-in-fact,
coupled with an interest, with exclusive power to collect, receive and retain
any Proceeds in respect of a Condemnation and to make any compromise or
settlement in connection with such Condemnation, subject to the provisions of
this Section. Provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (x)
in the event of a Condemnation where the loss does not exceed $5,000,000,
Borrower may settle and compromise such Proceeds; provided that the same is
effected in a competent and timely manner, and (y) in the event of a
Condemnation, where the
103
loss exceeds $5,000,000, Borrower may settle and compromise the Proceeds only
with the consent of Lender (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or
delayed) and Lender shall have the opportunity to participate, at Borrower'
cost, in any litigation and settlement discussions in respect thereof.
Notwithstanding any Condemnation by any public or quasi-public authority
(including any transfer made in lieu of or in anticipation of such a
Condemnation), Borrower shall continue to pay the Indebtedness at the time and
in the manner provided for in the Note, this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents, and the Indebtedness shall not be reduced unless and until any
Proceeds shall have been actually received and applied by Lender to discharge
the Indebtedness, pay required interest and pay any other required amounts, in
each case, pursuant to the terms of Sections 6.2.2 or 6.2.3 above. Lender shall
not be limited to the interest paid on the Proceeds by the condemning authority
but shall be entitled to receive out of the Proceeds interest at the rate or
rates provided in the Note. Borrower shall cause any Proceeds that are payable
to Borrower to be paid directly to Lender to be held and applied in accordance
with the terms hereof.
VII. IMPOSITIONS, OTHER CHARGES, LIENS AND OTHER ITEMS
SECTION 7.1 BORROWER TO PAY IMPOSITIONS AND OTHER CHARGES. Subject to the
third sentence of this Section 7.1, Borrower shall pay or cause to be paid all
Impositions now or hereafter levied or assessed or imposed against the Property
or any part thereof prior to the imposition of any interest, charges or expenses
for the non-payment thereof and shall pay all Other Charges on or before the
date they are due. Subject to Borrower's right of contest set forth in Section
7.3, as set forth in the next two sentences and provided that there are
sufficient funds available in the Tax Reserve Account, Lender, on behalf of
Borrower, shall pay all Impositions and Other Charges which are attributable to
or affect the Property or Borrower, prior to the date such Impositions or Other
Charges shall become delinquent or late charges may be imposed thereon, directly
to the applicable taxing authority with respect thereto. Lender shall, or Lender
shall direct the Cash Management Bank to, pay to the taxing authority such
amounts to the extent funds in the Tax Reserve Account are sufficient to pay
such Impositions. Nothing contained in this Agreement or the Security Instrument
shall be construed to require Borrower to pay any tax, assessment, levy or
charge imposed on Lender in the nature of a franchise, capital levy, estate,
inheritance, succession, income or net revenue tax.
SECTION 7.2 NO LIENS. Subject to its right of contest set forth in Section
7.3, Borrower shall at all times keep, or cause to be kept, the Property free
from all Liens (other than Permitted Encumbrances) and shall pay when due and
payable (or bond over) all claims and demands of mechanics, materialmen,
laborers and others which, if unpaid, might result in or permit the creation of
a Lien on the Property or any portion thereof and shall in any event cause the
prompt, full and unconditional discharge of all Liens imposed on or against the
Property or any portion thereof within forty-five (45) days after receiving
written notice of the filing (whether from Lender, the lienor or any other
Person) thereof. Borrower shall do or cause to be done, at the sole cost of
Borrower, everything reasonably necessary to fully preserve the first priority
of the Lien of the Security Instrument against the Property, subject to the
Permitted Encumbrances. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an
Event of Default with respect to its Obligations as set forth in this Article
VII, Lender may (but shall not be obligated to) make such payment or discharge
such Lien, and Borrower shall reimburse Lender on demand for all such advances
pursuant to Section 19.12 (together with interest thereon at the Default Rate).
104
SECTION 7.3 CONTEST. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to require
Borrower to pay, or cause to be paid, any Imposition or to satisfy any Lien, or
to comply with any Legal Requirement or Insurance Requirement, so long as
Borrower is in good faith, and by proper legal proceedings, where appropriate,
diligently contesting the validity, amount or application thereof, provided that
in each case, at the time of the commencement of any such action or proceeding,
and during the pendency of such action or proceeding (i) no Event of Default
shall exist and be continuing hereunder, (ii) Borrower shall keep Lender
informed of the status of such contest at reasonable intervals, (iii) if
Borrower is not providing security as provided in clause (vi) below, adequate
reserves with respect thereto are maintained on Borrower's books in accordance
with GAAP or in the Tax Reserve Account or Insurance Reserve Account, as
applicable, (iv) either such contest operates to suspend collection or
enforcement as the case may be, of the contested Imposition, Lien or Legal
Requirement and such contest is maintained and prosecuted continuously and with
diligence or the Imposition or Lien is bonded, (v) in the case of any Insurance
Requirement, the failure of Borrower to comply therewith shall not impair the
validity of any insurance required to be maintained by Borrower under Section
6.1 or the right to full payment of any claims thereunder, and (vi) in the case
of Impositions and Liens which are not bonded in excess of $1,000,000
individually, or in the aggregate, during such contest, Borrower, shall deposit
with or deliver to Lender either Cash and Cash Equivalents or a Letter or
Letters of Credit in an amount equal to 125% of (A) the amount of Borrower's
obligations being contested plus (B) any additional interest, charge, or penalty
arising from such contest. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the creation of any
such reserves or the furnishing of any bond or other security, Borrower promptly
shall comply with any contested Legal Requirement or Insurance Requirement or
shall pay any contested Imposition or Lien, and compliance therewith or payment
thereof shall not be deferred, if, at any time the Property or any portion
thereof shall be, in Lender's reasonable judgment, in imminent danger of being
forfeited or lost or Lender is likely to be subject to civil or criminal damages
as a result thereof. If such action or proceeding is terminated or discontinued
adversely to Borrower, Borrower shall deliver to Lender reasonable evidence of
Borrower's compliance with such contested Imposition, Lien, Legal Requirements
or Insurance Requirements, as the case may be.
VIII. TRANSFERS, INDEBTEDNESS AND SUBORDINATE LIENS
SECTION 8.1 RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERS AND INDEBTEDNESS.
(a) Unless such action is a Permitted Mezzanine Transfer, or is otherwise
permitted by the subsequent provisions of this Article VIII, no Person owning a
direct or indirect interest in Borrower, Borrower Parents, Borrower Subsidiary,
or Affiliate Tenant shall, without Lender's prior written consent and a Rating
Agency Confirmation with respect to the transfer or other matter in question,
(A) Transfer legal, Beneficial or direct or indirect equitable interests in all
or any part of the Property, Borrower, Borrower Parents, Affiliate Tenant, or

Parents, Borrower Subsidiary, or Affiliate Tenant, or (D) file a declaration of
condominium with respect to the Property. Notwithstanding any provision herein
105
to the contrary, nothing contained herein shall be deemed to restrict or
otherwise interfere with the ability of the holders of direct or indirect legal,
Beneficial or equitable interests in Guarantor to Transfer such interests and,
in addition, Guarantor (and the Permitted Borrower Transferee, Pre-approved
Transferee or other approved entity that assumes the obligations of Guarantor
pursuant to Section 8.5) may be merged into a surviving entity (the Survivor) so
long as after giving effect to such merger, the identity of a majority of
members of the board of directors of the Survivor are individuals that
(immediately prior to such merger) were members of the board of directors of the
predecessor Guarantor (or the Permitted Borrower Transferee, Pre-approved
Transferee or other approved entity that assumes the obligations of Guarantor
pursuant to Section 8.5) and continue to maintain operational and management
control of Survivor (and, in such event, Survivor shall become the Guarantor
hereunder).

such Alteration or Expansion pursuant to this Section 10.2(d) has been restored
and no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.
(e) All work done in connection with any Alteration or Expansion shall be
performed with due diligence to Final Completion in a good and workmanlike
manner, all materials used in connection with any Alteration or Expansion shall
be not less than the standard of quality of the materials generally used at the
Property as of the date hereof (or, if greater, the then-current customary
quality in the sub-market in which the Property is located) and all work shall
be performed and all materials used in accordance with all applicable Legal
Requirements and Insurance Requirements.
(f) The cost of any Alteration or Expansion shall be promptly and fully
paid for by Borrower, subject to the next succeeding sentence. Without Lender's
prior written consent, no payment made prior to the Final Completion (excluding
punch-list items) of an Alteration or Expansion or Restoration to any
contractor, subcontractor, materialman, supplier, engineer, architect, project
manager or other Person who renders services or furnishes materials in
connection with such Alteration shall exceed ninety percent (90%) of the
aggregate value of the work performed by such Person (other than any retention
for major contractors who have completed their work) from time to time and
materials furnished and incorporated into the Improvements.
(g) Subject to the terms of Section 10.2(i), all work performed in
connection with the Approved Base Building Work listed on Schedule II shall be

Material Alteration or Material Expansion which is in excess of the Threshold
Amount, which Eligible Collateral shall be held by Lender as security for the
Indebtedness and released to Borrower as such work progresses in accordance with
Section 10.2(h)(iii); provided, however, in the event that any Material
Alteration or Material Expansion shall be made in conjunction with any
Restoration with respect to which Borrower shall be entitled to withdraw
Proceeds pursuant to Section 6.2 hereof (including any Proceeds remaining after
completion of such Restoration), the amount of the Eligible Collateral to be
furnished pursuant hereto need not exceed the aggregate cost of such Restoration
and such Material Alteration or Material Expansion (in either case, as estimated
by the Independent Architect) less the sum of the amount of any Proceeds which
the Borrower is entitled to withdraw pursuant to Section 6.2 hereof and the
Threshold Amount.
117
(ii) Prior to commencement of construction of such Material
Alteration or Material Expansion, Borrower shall deliver to Lender a schedule
(with the concurrence of the Independent Architect) setting forth the projected
stages of completion of such Alteration or Expansion and the corresponding
amounts expected to be due and payable by or on behalf of Borrower in connection
with such completion, such schedule to be updated quarterly by Borrower (and
with the concurrence of the Independent Architect) during the performance of
such Alteration or Expansion.
(iii) Any Eligible Collateral that a Borrower delivers to Lender
pursuant hereto (and the proceeds of any such Eligible Collateral) shall be
invested (to the extent such Eligible Collateral can be invested) by Lender in
Permitted Investments for a period of time consistent with the date on which the
Borrower notifies Lender that the Borrower expects to request a release of such
Eligible Collateral in accordance with the next succeeding sentence. From time
to time as the Alteration or Expansion progresses, the amount of any Eligible
Collateral so furnished may, upon the written request of Borrower to Lender, be
withdrawn by Borrower and paid or otherwise applied by or returned to Borrower
in an amount equal to the amount Borrower would be entitled to so withdraw if
Section 6.2.4 were applicable, and any Eligible Collateral so furnished which is
a Letter of Credit may be reduced by Borrower in an amount equal to the amount
Borrower would be entitled to so reduce if Section 6.2.4 hereof were applicable,
subject, in each case, to the satisfaction of the conditions precedent to
withdrawal of funds or reduction of the Letter of Credit set forth in Section
6.2.4 hereof. In connection with the above-described quarterly update of the
projected stages of completion of the Material Alteration or Material Expansion
(as concurred with by an Independent Architect), Borrower shall increase (or be
permitted to decrease, as applicable) the Eligible Collateral then deposited
with Lender as necessary to comply with Section 10.2(h)(i) hereof.
(iv) At any time after Final Completion of such Material Alterations
or Material Expansions, the whole balance of any Cash deposited with Lender
pursuant to Section 10.2(h) hereof then remaining on deposit may be withdrawn by
Borrower and shall be paid by Lender to Borrower, and any Eligible Collateral so
deposited shall, to the extent it has not been called upon, reduced or
theretofore released, be released by Lender to Borrower, within ten (10) days
after receipt by Lender of an application for such withdrawal and/or release
together with an Officer's Certificate, and as to the following clauses (A) and
(B) of this clause also a certificate of the Independent Architect, setting
forth in substance as follows:

(B) that to the knowledge of the certifying Person, (x) such
Material Alteration(s) or Material Expansion(s) has been completed
in compliance with all Legal Requirements, and (y) to the extent
required for the legal use or occupancy of the portion of the
Property affected by such Alteration(s) or Expansion(s), the
applicable Borrower has obtained a temporary or permanent
certificate of occupancy (or similar certificate) or, if no such
certificate is required, a statement to that effect;
118
(C) that to the knowledge of the certifying Person, all
amounts that a Borrower is or may become liable to pay in respect of
such Material Alteration(s) or Material Expansion(s) through the
date of the certification have been paid in full or adequately
provided for and, to the extent that such are customary and
reasonably obtainable by prudent property owners in the area where
the applicable Property is located, that Lien waivers have been
obtained from the general contractor and subcontractors performing
such Alteration(s) or Expansion(s) or at its sole cost and expense,
Borrower shall cause a nationally recognized title insurance company
to deliver to Lender an endorsement to the Title Policy, updating
such policy and insuring over such Liens without further exceptions
to such policy other than Permitted Encumbrances, or shall, at its
sole cost and expense, cause a reputable title insurance company to
deliver a lender's title insurance policy, in such form, in such
amounts and with such endorsements as the Title Policy, which policy
shall be dated the date of completion of the Material Alteration and
shall contain no exceptions other than Permitted Encumbrances;
provided, however, that if, for any reason, Borrower are unable to
deliver the certification required by this clause (C) with respect
to any costs or expenses relating to the Alteration(s) or
Expansion(s), then, assuming Borrower are able to satisfy each of
the other requirements set forth in clauses (A) and (B) above,
Borrower shall be entitled to the release of the difference between
the whole balance of such Eligible Collateral and the total of all
costs and expenses to which Borrower are unable to certify; and
(D) that to the knowledge of the certifying Person, no Event
of Default has occurred and is continuing.
(i) Lender hereby agrees that Borrower shall not be required to comply
with the terms of Sections 10.2 (b), (c), (d), (g) and (h) hereof with respect
to the current projects relating to the Property that are more particularly
described on attached Schedule XVI (collectively, the EXISTING PROJECTS);
provided, however, any such Existing Project is also subject to the following
conditions:
(i) Borrower shall complete such Existing Project no less than six
(6) months prior to the Maturity Date (with a permanent certificate of occupancy
for such Existing Project delivered to Lender before the expiration of such six

issued, delivery to Lender of a temporary certificate of occupancy with no
material conditions remaining that are necessary to deliver a permanent
certificate of occupancy to Lender);
(ii) Prior to the commencement of such Existing Project, Borrower
shall deliver to Lender a capital expenditure funding plan that includes the
sources of funding for such Existing Project, in form and substance reasonably
acceptable to Lender;
(iii) Guarantor shall deliver to Lender a completion guaranty in the
form of Exhibit S attached hereto prior to the commencement of any such Existing
Project; provided,
119
however, if Guarantor's net worth, as reasonably determined by lender, shall be
less than the Minimum Net Worth at the commencement of such Existing Project,
Borrower shall deliver a completion guaranty from an entity that has the
required Minimum Net Worth.

except as set forth in the environmental reports and studies delivered to Lender
(the ENVIRONMENTAL REPORTS), (i) Borrower (to the Best of Borrower's Knowledge
for the period prior to April 2, 2004) has not engaged in or knowingly permitted
any operations or activities upon, or any use or occupancy of the Property, or
any portion thereof, for the purpose of or in any way involving the handling,
manufacture, treatment, storage, use, generation, release, discharge, refining,

only in the course of legitimate business operations at the Property; (ii) to
the Best of Borrower's Knowledge, no tenant, occupant or user of the Property,
or any other Person, has engaged in or permitted any operations or activities
upon, or any use or occupancy of the Property, or any portion thereof, for the
purpose of or in any material way
122
involving the handling, manufacture, treatment, storage, use, generation,
release, discharge, refining, dumping or disposal of any Hazardous Materials on,
in or about the Property, or transported any Hazardous Materials to, from or
across the Property, except in all cases in material compliance with
Environmental Laws and only in the course of legitimate business operations at

(iv) to the Best of Borrower's Knowledge, no Hazardous Materials have migrated
from the Property upon or beneath other properties which would reasonably be
expected to result in material liability for Borrower; and (v) to the Best of
Borrower's Knowledge, no Hazardous Materials have migrated or threaten to
migrate from other properties upon, about or beneath the Property which would
reasonably be expected to result in material liability for Borrower.
SECTION 12.2 COVENANTS.
12.2.1 COMPLIANCE WITH ENVIRONMENTAL LAWS. Subject to Borrower's
right to contest under Section 7.3, Borrower covenants and agrees with Lender
that it shall comply with all Environmental Laws. If at any time during the
continuance of the Lien of the Security Instrument, a Governmental Authority
having jurisdiction over the Property requires remedial action to correct the
presence of Hazardous Materials in, around, or under the Property (an
ENVIRONMENTAL EVENT), Borrower shall deliver prompt notice of the occurrence of
such Environmental Event to Lender. Within thirty (30) days after Borrower has
knowledge of the occurrence of an Environmental Event, Borrower shall deliver to
Lender an Officer's Certificate (an ENVIRONMENTAL CERTIFICATE) explaining the
Environmental Event in reasonable detail and setting forth the proposed remedial
action, if any. Borrower shall promptly provide Lender with copies of all
notices which allege or identify any actual or potential violation or
noncompliance received by or prepared by or for Borrower in connection with any
Environmental Law. For purposes of this paragraph, the term "notice" shall mean
any summons, citation, directive, order, claim, pleading, letter, application,
filing, report, findings, declarations or other materials pertinent to
compliance of the Property and Borrower with such Environmental Laws.
12.2.2 RESERVED.
SECTION 12.3 ENVIRONMENTAL REPORTS. Upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Environmental Event with respect to the Property or an Event
of Default, Lender shall have the right to have its consultants perform a
comprehensive environmental audit of the Property. Such audit shall be conducted
by an environmental consultant chosen by Lender and may include a visual survey,
a record review, an area reconnaissance assessing the presence of hazardous or
toxic waste or substances, PCBs or storage tanks at the Property, an asbestos
survey of the Property, which may include random sampling of the Improvements
and air quality testing, and such further site assessments as Lender may
reasonably require due to the results obtained from the foregoing. Borrower
grants Lender, its agents, consultants and contractors the right to enter the
Property as reasonable or appropriate for the circumstances for the purposes of
performing such studies and the reasonable cost of such studies shall be due and
payable by Borrower to Lender upon demand and shall be secured by the Lien of
the Security Instrument. Lender shall not unreasonably interfere with, and
Lender shall direct the environmental consultant to use its commercially
reasonable efforts not to hinder, Borrower's or any Tenant's,
123
other occupant's or Manager's operations upon the Property when conducting such
audit, sampling or inspections. By undertaking any of the measures identified in
and pursuant to this Section 12.3, Lender shall not be deemed to be exercising
any control over the operations of Borrower or the handling of any environmental
matter or hazardous wastes or substances of Borrower for purposes of incurring
or being subject to liability therefor.
SECTION 12.4 ENVIRONMENTAL INDEMNIFICATION. Borrower shall protect,
indemnify, save, defend, and hold harmless the Indemnified Parties from and
against any and all liability, loss, damage, actions, causes of action, costs or
expenses whatsoever (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) and any
and all claims, suits and judgments which any Indemnified Party may suffer, as a
result of or with respect to: (a) any Environmental Claim relating to or arising
from the Property; (b) the violation of any Environmental Law in connection with
the Property; (c) any release, spill, or the presence of any Hazardous Materials
affecting the Property; and (d) the presence at, in, on or under, or the
release, escape, seepage, leakage, discharge or migration at or from, the
Property of any Hazardous Materials, whether or not such condition was known or
unknown to Borrower; provided that, in each case, Borrower shall be relieved of
its obligation under this subsection if any of the matters referred to in
clauses (a) through (d) above did not occur (but need not have been discovered)
prior to (1) the foreclosure of the Security Instrument, (2) the delivery by
Borrower to Lender or its designee of a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure with respect
to the Property, or (3) Lender's or its designee's taking possession and control
of the Property after the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder. If any
such action or other proceeding shall be brought against Lender, upon written
notice from Borrower to Lender (given reasonably promptly following Lender's
notice to Borrower of such action or proceeding), Borrower shall be entitled to
assume the defense thereof, at Borrower's expense, with counsel reasonably
acceptable to Lender; provided, however, Lender may, at its own expense, retain
separate counsel to participate in such defense, but such participation shall
not be deemed to give Lender a right to control such defense, which right
Borrower expressly retains. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Indemnified
Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel at Borrower's expense if,
in the reasonable opinion of legal counsel, a conflict or potential conflict
exists between the Indemnified Party and Borrower that would make such separate
representation advisable. Borrower shall have no obligation to indemnify an
Indemnified Party for damage or loss resulting from such Indemnified Party's
gross negligence or willful misconduct.
SECTION 12.5 RECOURSE NATURE OF CERTAIN INDEMNIFICATIONS. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary provided in this Agreement or in any other Loan
Document, the indemnification provided in Section 12.4 shall be fully recourse
to Borrower and shall be independent of, and shall survive, the discharge of the
Indebtedness, the release of the Lien created by the Security Instrument, and/or
the conveyance of title to the Property to Lender or any purchaser or designee
in connection with a foreclosure of the Security Instrument or conveyance in
lieu of foreclosure.

(a) the Ground Lease is in full force and effect, unmodified by any
writing or otherwise, and Borrower has not waived, canceled or surrendered any

are actually payable, all rent, additional rent and/or other charges reserved in
or payable under the Ground Lease have been paid to the extent that they are
payable to the date hereof;

under the Ground Lease;
(e) Fee Owner is not in default under any of the terms of the Ground
Lease on its part to be observed and performed;
(f) Borrower has delivered to Lender a true, accurate and complete copy
of the Ground Lease; and

performance of any of its obligations under the Ground Lease, including, without
limitation, any default in the payment of any sums payable thereunder, then, in
each and every such case, Lender may, at its option, cause the default or
defaults to be remedied and otherwise exercise any and all rights of Borrower
thereunder in the name of and on behalf of Borrower. Borrower shall, on demand,
reimburse Lender for all advances made and expenses incurred by Lender in curing
any such default (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and
disbursements), together with interest thereon computed at the Default Rate from
the date that such advance is made to and including the date the same is paid to
Lender.

give Lender written notice of its intention to exercise each and every option,
if any, to renew or extend the term of the Ground Lease, at least thirty (30)
days prior to the expiration of the time to exercise such option under the terms
thereof. If required by Lender, Borrower shall duly exercise any renewal or
extension option with respect to any of the Ground Lease if Lender reasonably
determines that the exercise of such option is necessary to protect Lender's
security for the Loan. If Borrower intends to renew or extend the term of the
Ground Lease, it shall deliver to Lender, with the notice of such decision, a
copy of the notice of renewal or extension delivered to Fee Owner, together with
the terms and conditions of such renewal or extension. If Borrower does not
renew or extend the term of the Ground Lease, Lender may, at its option,
exercise the option to renew or extend in the name of and on behalf of Borrower.
Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Lender as its attorney-in-fact, coupled
with an interest, to execute
125
and deliver, for and in the name of Borrower, all instruments and agreements
necessary under the Ground Lease or otherwise to cause any renewal or extension
of the Ground Lease.
SECTION 13.4 GROUND LEASE COVENANTS.
13.4.1 WAIVER OF INTEREST IN NEW GROUND LEASE. In the event the
Ground Lease shall be terminated by reason of a default thereunder by Borrower
and Lender shall require from Fee Owner a new ground lease, Borrower hereby
waives any right, title and interest in and to such new ground lease or the
leasehold estate created thereby, waiving all rights of redemption now or
hereafter operable under any law.
13.4.2 NO ELECTION TO TERMINATE. Borrower shall not elect to treat
the Ground Lease as terminated, canceled or surrendered pursuant to the
applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code (including, without limitation,
Section 365(h)(1) thereof) without Lender's prior written consent in the event
of Fee Owner's bankruptcy. In addition, Borrower shall, in the event of Fee

less than thirty (30) days prior written notice of the date on which Borrower
shall apply to any court or other governmental authority for authority and
permission to reject the Ground Lease in the event that there shall be filed by
or against Borrower any petition, action or proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code
or under any other similar federal or state law now or hereafter in effect and
if Borrower determines to reject the Ground Lease. Lender shall have the right,
but not the obligation, to serve upon Borrower within such thirty (30) day
period a notice stating that (i) Lender demands that Borrower assume and assign
the Ground Lease to Lender subject to and in accordance with the Bankruptcy
Code, and (ii) Lender covenants to cure or provide reasonably adequate assurance
thereof with respect to all defaults reasonably susceptible of being cured by
Lender and of future performance under the Ground Lease. If Lender serves upon
Borrower the notice described above, Borrower shall not seek to reject the
Ground Lease and shall comply with the demand provided for clause (i) above
within fifteen (15) days after the notice shall have been given by Lender.
13.4.4 LENDER RIGHT TO PERFORM. During the continuance of an Event
of Default, Lender shall have the right, but not the obligation, (i) to perform
and comply with all obligations of Borrower under the Ground Lease without
relying on any grace period provided therein, (ii) to do and take, without any
obligation to do so, such actions as Lender deems necessary or desirable to
prevent or cure any default by Borrower under the Ground Lease, including,
without limitation, any act, deed, matter or thing whatsoever that Borrower may
do in order to cure a default under the Ground Lease and (iii) to enter in and
upon the Property or any part thereof to such extent and as often as Lender
deems necessary or desirable in order to prevent or cure any default of Borrower
under the Ground Lease. Borrower shall, within five (5) Business Days after
written request is made therefor by Lender, execute and deliver to Lender or to
any party designated by Lender, such further instruments, agreements, powers,
assignments,
126
conveyances or the like as may be reasonably necessary to complete or perfect
the interest, rights or powers of Lender pursuant to this Section or as may
otherwise be required by Lender.

under or pursuant to the Ground Lease in which Lender elects to participate,
Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Lender as its true and lawful
attorney-in-fact (which appointment shall be deemed coupled with an interest) to
exercise, during the continuance of an Event of Default, all right, title and
interest of Borrower in connection with such arbitration, including, without
limitation, the right to appoint arbitrators and to conduct arbitration
proceedings on behalf of Borrower and Lender. All costs and expenses incurred by
Lender in connection with such arbitration and the settlement thereof shall be
borne solely by Borrower, including, without limitation, attorneys' fees and
disbursements. Nothing contained in this Section shall obligate Lender to
participate in any such arbitration.
13.4.6 PAYMENT OF RENT. Borrower promptly shall pay the rent and all
other sums and charges mentioned in, and payable under, the Ground Lease.
13.4.7 PERFORMANCE OF COVENANTS. Borrower shall promptly perform and
observe all of the terms, covenants and conditions required to be performed and
observed by the lessee under the Ground Lease, the breach of which could permit
any party to the Ground Lease validly to terminate the Ground Lease (including,

event or omission as a result of which there could occur a default by the

payment obligation), and Borrower shall obtain the consent or approval of Fee
Owner to the extent required pursuant to the terms of the Ground Lease.

any such persons, and such other persons as may be designated by the holders of
the Notes from time to time. Until the Obligations are paid in full, Borrower
shall provide the Rating Agencies, accountants or trustee with all financial
reports required hereunder and such other information as they shall reasonably
request, including copies of any default notices or other material notices
delivered to and received from Lender hereunder, to enable them to continuously

prospective investors in the Securities, the Rating Agencies, and service
providers relating to the Securitization. In the event that the Disclosure
Document is required to be revised prior to the sale of all Securities, upon
request, Borrower shall reasonably cooperate with the holder of the Note in
updating the Provided Information for inclusion or summary in the Disclosure
Document by providing all current information pertaining to Borrower and the
Property reasonably requested by Lender.
14.4.2 INDEMNIFICATION CERTIFICATE. In connection with each of (x) a
preliminary and a private placement memorandum, or (y) a preliminary and final
prospectus, as applicable, Borrower agrees to provide, at its cost and expense
and at Lender's reasonable request, an indemnification certificate:
(a) certifying that Borrower has carefully examined those portions of
such memorandum or prospectus, as applicable, reasonably designated in writing
by Lender for Borrower's review pertaining to Borrower, the Property, the Loan
and/or the Provided Information and insofar as such sections or portions thereof
specifically pertain to Borrower, the Property, the Provided Information or the
Loan (such portions, the RELEVANT PORTIONS), the Relevant Portions do not
(except to the extent specified by Borrower if Borrower does not agree with the
statements therein), as of the date of such certificate, to the Best of
Borrower's Knowledge, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to
state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements made, in the
light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.
(b) indemnifying Lender and the Affiliates of Deutsche Bank Securities,
Inc. (collectively, DBS) that have prepared the Disclosure Document relating to
the Securitization, each of its directors, each of its officers who have signed
the Disclosure Document and each person or entity who controls DBS within the
meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act
(collectively, the DBS GROUP), and DBS, together with the DBS Group, each of
their respective directors and each person who controls DBS or the DBS Group,
within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the
Exchange Act (collectively, the UNDERWRITER GROUP) for any actual, out-of-pocket
losses, third party claims, damages (excluding lost profits, diminution in value
and other consequential damages) or liabilities arising out of third party
claims (the LIABILITIES) to which any member of the Underwriter Group may become
subject to the extent such Liabilities arise out of or are based upon any untrue
statement of any material fact contained in the Relevant Portions and in the
131
Provided Information or arise out of or are based upon the omission by Borrower
to state therein a material fact required to be stated in the Relevant Portions
in order to make the statements in the Relevant Portions in light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading (except that (x)
Borrower's obligation to indemnify in respect of any information contained in a
preliminary or final registration statement, private placement memorandum or
preliminary or final prospectus shall be limited to any untrue statement or
omission of material fact therein known to Borrower to the extent in breach of
Borrower's certification made pursuant to clause (a) above and (y) Borrower
shall have no responsibility for the failure of any member of the Underwriting
Group to accurately transcribe written information supplied by Borrower or to
include such portions of the Provided Information).
(c) Borrower's liability under clauses (a) and (b) above shall be
limited to Liabilities arising out of or based upon any such untrue statement or
omission made in a Disclosure Document in reliance upon and in conformity with
information furnished to Lender by, or furnished at the direction and on behalf
of, Borrower in connection with the preparation of those portions of the
registration statement, memorandum or prospectus pertaining to Borrower, the
Property or the Loan, including financial statements of Borrower and operating
statements with respect to the Property, under Relevant Portions of the
Disclosure Documents which have been provided in advance to Borrower and
Borrower's reasonable comments in respect thereof are incorporated. This
indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which Borrower may
otherwise have.
(d) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Article
XIV of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if
a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under
this Article XIV, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement
thereof, but the omission to so notify the indemnifying party will not relieve
the indemnifying party from any liability which the indemnifying party may have
to any indemnified party hereunder except to the extent that failure to notify
causes prejudice to the indemnifying party. In the event that any action is
brought against any indemnified party, and it notifies the indemnifying party of
the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled, jointly with
any other indemnifying party, to participate therein and, to the extent that it
(or they) may elect by written notice delivered to the indemnified party
promptly after receiving the aforesaid notice from such indemnified party, to
assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such
indemnified party. After notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified
party under this Article XIV of its assumption of such defense, the indemnifying
party shall not be liable for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred
by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof; provided,
however, if the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party
and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably
concluded that there are any legal defenses available to it and/or other
indemnified parties that are different from or in conflict with those available
to the indemnifying party, the 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 on behalf of such indemnified party or
parties at the expense of the indemnifying party. The indemnifying party shall
not be liable for the expenses of separate counsel unless an indemnified party
shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it
that are different from or in conflict with those available to another
indemnified party.
132
(e) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in
circumstances in which the indemnity provided for in this Article XIV is for any
reason held to be unenforceable by an indemnified party in respect of any
actual, out-of-pocket losses, claims, damages or liabilities relating to third
party claims (or action in respect thereof) referred to therein which would
otherwise be indemnifiable under this Article XIV, the indemnifying party shall
contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of
such actual, out of pocket losses, third party claims, damages or liabilities
(or action in respect thereof) (but excluding damages for lost profits,
diminution in value of the Property and consequential damages); provided,
however, that no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the
meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to
contribution for Liabilities arising therefrom from any person who was not
guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. In determining the amount of
contribution to which the respective parties are entitled, the following factors
shall be considered: (i) the DBS Group's and Borrower's relative knowledge and
access to information concerning the matter with respect to which the claim was
asserted; (ii) the opportunity to correct and prevent any statement or omission;
(iii) the limited responsibilities and obligations of Borrower as specified
herein; and (iv) any other equitable considerations appropriate in the
circumstances.

reasonably estimates, based on the most recent tax xxxx for the Property, will
be payable during the next ensuing twelve (12) months in order to accumulate
with Lender sufficient funds to pay all such Impositions at least twenty (20)
days prior to the imposition of any interest, charges or expenses for the
non-payment thereof and (b) one-twelfth of the annual Other Charges that Lender
reasonably estimates will be payable during the next ensuing twelve (12) months
(said monthly amounts in (a) and (b) above hereinafter called the MONTHLY TAX
RESERVE AMOUNT, and the aggregate amount of funds held in the Tax Reserve
Account being the TAX RESERVE AMOUNT). As of the Closing Date, the Monthly Tax
Reserve Amount is $0.00, but such amount is subject to adjustment by Lender in
accordance with the provisions of this Section 16.1. The Monthly Tax Reserve
Amount shall be paid by Borrower to Lender on each Payment Date. Lender will
apply the Monthly Tax Reserve Amount to payments of Impositions and Other
Charges required to be made by Borrower pursuant to Article V and Article VII
and under the Security Instrument, subject to Borrower's right to contest
Impositions in accordance with Section 7.3. In making any payment relating to
the Tax Reserve Account, Lender may do so according to any xxxx, statement or
estimate procured from the appropriate public office, without inquiry into the
accuracy of such xxxx, statement or estimate or into the validity of any tax,
assessment, sale, forfeiture, tax lien or title or claim thereof. If the amount
of funds in the Tax Reserve Account shall exceed the amounts due for Impositions
and Other Charges pursuant to Article V and Article VII, Lender shall credit
such excess against future payments to be made to the Tax Reserve Account. If at
any time Lender reasonably determines that the Tax Reserve Amount is not or will
not be sufficient to pay Impositions and Other Charges by the dates set forth
above, Lender shall notify Borrower of such determination and Borrower shall
increase its monthly payments to Lender by the amount that Lender reasonably
estimates is sufficient to make up the deficiency at least thirty (30) days
prior to the imposition of any interest, charges or expenses for the non-payment
of the Impositions and Other Charges. Upon payment of the Impositions and Other
Charges, Lender shall reassess the amount necessary to be deposited in the Tax
Reserve Account for the succeeding period, which calculation shall take into
account any excess amounts remaining in the Tax Reserve Account, and any release
of a Property pursuant to Section 2.3.4 and any release of a portion of a
Property pursuant to Section 8.3.
SECTION 16.2 INSURANCE RESERVE ACCOUNT. Borrower has deposited on the date
hereof the amount of $0.00 in the Insurance Reserve Account. Following an
Insurance Reserve Trigger, Borrower will immediately pay to Lender for transfer
by Lender to the Insurance Reserve Account (or if Borrower fails to so pay
Lender, Lender will transfer from the Holding Account) an amount (the INSURANCE
RESERVE AMOUNT) equal to payments of insurance premiums required to be made by
Borrower to pay for the insurance required pursuant to Article VI and under the
Security Instrument. In addition, prior to such time as Borrower maintains
blanket policies of insurance in all respects satisfactory to Lender pursuant to
Section 6.1.16, and otherwise following an Insurance Reserve Trigger, in
accordance with the time periods set forth in Section 3.1, Borrower shall
deposit into the Insurance Reserve Account an amount equal to one-twelfth of the
insurance premiums that Lender reasonably estimates based on the most recent
xxxx, will be
137
payable for the renewal of the coverage afforded by the insurance policies upon
the expiration thereof in order to accumulate with Lender sufficient funds to
pay all such insurance premiums at least twenty (20) days prior to the
expiration of the policies required to be maintained by Borrower pursuant to the
terms hereof (said monthly amounts hereinafter called the MONTHLY INSURANCE
RESERVE AMOUNT); provided, however, that immediately following an Insurance
Reserve Trigger, Borrower will pay to Lender for transfer by Lender to the
Insurance Reserve Account (or if Borrower fails to so pay Lender, Lender will
transfer from the Holding Account) an amount equal to payments of insurance
premiums required to be made by Borrower to pay for the insurance required
pursuant to Article VI and under the Security Instrument. As of the Closing
Date, the Monthly Insurance Reserve Amount is $0.00. The Monthly Insurance
Reserve Amount, if same is payable pursuant to this Section 16.2, shall be paid
by Borrower to Lender on each Payment Date. Lender will apply the Monthly
Insurance Reserve Amount and other amounts in the Insurance Reserve Account to
payments of insurance premiums required to be made by Borrower to pay (or to
reimburse Borrower or Affiliate Tenant) for the insurance required pursuant to
Article VI and under the Security Instrument. In making any payment relating to
the Insurance Reserve Account, Lender may do so according to any xxxx, statement
or estimate procured from the insurer or agent, without inquiry into the
accuracy of such xxxx, statement or estimate or into the validity thereof. If at
any time Lender reasonably determines that the Insurance Reserve Amount is not
or will not be sufficient to pay insurance premiums (up to a maximum amount
equal to the aggregate annual insurance premium required hereunder), Lender
shall notify Borrower of such determination and Borrower shall increase the
Insurance Reserve Amount by the amount that Lender reasonably estimates is
sufficient to make up the deficiency at least thirty (30) days prior to
expiration of the applicable insurance policies. Upon payment of such insurance
premiums, Lender shall reassess the amount necessary to be deposited in the
Insurance Reserve Account for the succeeding period, which calculation shall
take into account any excess amounts remaining in the Insurance Reserve Account.
SECTION 16.3 INTENTIONALLY DELETED.
SECTION 16.4 LOW DSCR RESERVE ACCOUNTS. Following each Fiscal Quarter,
Lender will perform a DSCR Test to determine whether a Low DSCR Period has
occurred and is continuing (it being hereby agreed that all determinations as to
whether a Low DSCR Period has occurred and is continuing shall be made by Lender
based on the financial information delivered by Borrower pursuant to Section
11.2 hereof). Pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of Section
3.1.1, during a Low DSCR Period, monies shall be transferred in accordance with
Section 3.1.1 hereof from the Holding Account into the applicable Low DSCR
Reserve Account and retained by Lender as additional security for the
Indebtedness and shall be applied or disbursed as hereinafter provided. From and
after the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default, Lender shall have
the right to apply any amounts then remaining in the Low DSCR Reserve Accounts
to repay the Indebtedness or any other amounts due hereunder or under the other
Loan Documents in such order, manner and amount as Lender shall determine in its
sole discretion. Provided no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and
be continuing, Lender shall instruct the Cash Management Bank to transfer in the
same manner as Excess Cash Flow any amounts remaining in the Low DSCR Reserve
Account within ten (10) Business Days after Borrower provides Lender with
evidence satisfactory to Lender indicating that the Property has achieved the
DSCR requirement set forth in subclause (ii) of the definition of Low DSCR
Period in Section 1.1 hereof.

discussed in the last paragraph of attached Schedule XVII) under a Membership
Agreement at the Grand Wailea Property resigns and such member is not refunded
its membership deposit under the "4 for 1" program more particularly described
on attached Schedule XVII within forty-five (45) days after such member is
placed on the resigned list (collectively, the GRAND WAILEA REFUND MEMBERS),
Borrower shall, on the first Business Day after the expiration of such 45 day
period immediately deposit into the Grand Wailea Refund Reserve Account an
amount equal to the amount of such member's membership deposit (collectively,
GRAND WAILEA REFUND MEMBER DEPOSITS); provided, however, that Borrower shall
have no obligation to make such deposit if the aggregate membership deposits of
the Grand Wailea Refund Members then on such list is $100,000 or less.
Additionally, during any Low DSCR Period, Borrower agrees to deposit within one
(1) Business Day of receipt thereof into the Grand Wailea Refund Reserve Account
any membership deposits received during such Low DSCR Period at the Grand Wailea
Property (collectively, LOW DSCR GW MEMBERSHIP DEPOSITS). Provided no Event of
default has occurred and is continuing, funds on deposit in the Grand Wailea
Refund Reserve Account will only be released to the Borrower upon delivery to
Lender of an Officer's Certificate certifying (i) that such deposit is for a
member whose deposit is in the Grand Wailea Refund Reserve Account, (ii) the
name and address of such member, (iii) the amount of such deposit, (iv) that
such deposit has either been refunded by Borrower or is then due to be refunded
to such member and (v) if such deposit has not already been refunded by
Borrower, that Borrower will pay such refund to such member within two (2)
Business Days after receipt thereof. Borrower shall promptly send Lender copies
of all checks evidencing refunds paid out of the Grand Wailea Refund Reserve
Account. Additionally, provided no Default or Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing, Lender shall instruct the Cash Management Bank to
transfer in the same manner as Excess Cash Flow free and clear of all Liens, any
amounts remaining in the Grand Wailea Refund Reserve Account that were
specifically deposited (and not previously disbursed to Borrowers) on account of
Low DSCR GW Membership Deposits (but specifically excluding any amounts
remaining in the Grand Wailea Refund Reserve Account that were deposited on
account of Grand Wailea Refund Member Deposits) within ten (10) Business Days
after Borrower provides Lender with evidence satisfactory to Lender indicating
that the Property has achieved the DSCR requirement set forth in subclause (ii)
of the definition of Low DSCR Period in Section 1.1 hereof.
SECTION 16.9 LETTER OF CREDIT PROVISIONS.
16.9.1 DELIVERY OF LETTER OF CREDIT. In lieu of depositing all or
any portion of the funds in the DSCR Reserve Account with Lender pursuant to
Section 16.5 and/or the Grand Wailea Refund Reserve Amount

of Credit, and (ii) the amount that Borrower would otherwise be entitled to
receive as a disbursement from the applicable reserve account pursuant to
Section 16.5.
16.9.3 SECURITY FOR DEBT. Each Letter of Credit delivered under this
Agreement shall be additional security for the payment of the Indebtedness. Upon
the occurrence and during the continuance of an
Event of Default, Lender shall have the right, at its option, to draw on any
Letter of Credit and to apply all or any part thereof to the payment of the
items for which such Letter of Credit was established or to apply each such
Letter of Credit to payment of the Indebtedness in such order, proportion or
priority as Lender may determine.
16.9.4 ADDITIONAL RIGHTS OF LENDER. In addition to any other right
Lender may have to draw upon a Letter of Credit pursuant to the terms and
conditions of this Agreement, Lender shall have the additional
rights to draw in full any Letter of Credit: (a) if Lender has received a notice
from the issuing bank that the Letter of Credit will not be renewed and a
substitute Letter of Credit is not provided at least thirty (30) days prior to
the date on which the outstanding Letter of Credit is scheduled to expire; (b)
upon receipt of notice from the issuing bank that the Letter of Credit will be
terminated (except if a substitute Letter of Credit is provided); or (c) if
Lender has received notice that the bank issuing the Letter of Credit shall
cease to be an Approved Bank (unless an alternative Approved Bank issues an
equivalent Letter of Credit within fifteen (15) days of Borrower's receipt of
notice of same). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the
above, Lender is not obligated to draw any Letter of Credit upon the happening
of an event specified in (a), (b) or (c) above and shall not be liable for any
losses sustained by Borrower due to the insolvency of the bank issuing the

available to it under this Agreement, the Security Instrument or any other Loan
Document. Any payment hereunder may be enforced and recovered in whole or in
part at such time by one or more of the remedies provided to Lender in the Loan
Documents.
143
SECTION 17.2 REMEDIES.
(a) Unless waived in writing by Lender, upon the occurrence and during
the continuance 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 of the Indebtedness shall
be declared due and payable, and whether or not Lender shall have commenced any
foreclosure proceeding or other action for the enforcement of its rights and
remedies under any of the Loan Documents with respect to 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 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 is continuing (i) Lender
shall not be 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 remedies
against the Property and the Security Instrument has been foreclosed, sold
and/or otherwise realized upon in satisfaction of the Indebtedness or the
Indebtedness has been paid in full.
(b) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default, with respect to the Account Collateral, the Lender may:
(i) Subject to the Assignment of Management Agreement, without
notice to Borrower, except as required by law, and at any time or from time to
time, charge, set-off and otherwise apply all or any part of the Account
Collateral against the Obligations, Operating Expenses and/or Capital
Expenditures for the Property or any part thereof;
(ii) in Lender's sole discretion, at any time and from time to
time, exercise any and all rights and remedies available to it under this
Agreement, and/or as a secured party under the UCC;
(iii) Subject to the Assignment of Management Agreement, demand,
collect, take possession of or receipt for, settle, compromise, adjust, xxx for,
foreclose or realize upon the Account Collateral (or any portion thereof) as
Lender may determine in its sole discretion; and
(iv) take all other actions provided in, or contemplated by, this
Agreement.
(c) With respect to Borrower, the Account Collateral 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
Indebtedness, and Lender may seek satisfaction out of the Property or any part
thereof, in its absolute discretion in respect of the Indebtedness. In addition,
Lender shall have the right from time to time to partially foreclose this
Agreement and the Security Instrument in any manner and for any amounts secured
by this Agreement or the Security Instrument then due and payable as determined
by Lender in its sole discretion
144
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 or interest, Lender may foreclose this
Agreement and the Security Instrument to recover such delinquent payments, or
(ii) in the event Lender elects to accelerate less than the entire outstanding
principal balance of the Loan, Lender may foreclose this Agreement and the
Security Instrument to recover so much of the principal balance of the Loan as
Lender may accelerate and such other sums secured by this Agreement or the
Security Instrument as Lender may elect. Notwithstanding one or more partial
foreclosures, the Property shall remain subject to this Agreement and the
Security Instrument to secure payment of sums secured by this Agreement and the
Security Instrument and not previously recovered.
SECTION 17.3 REMEDIES CUMULATIVE; WAIVERS.
The rights, powers and remedies of Lender under this Agreement and
the Security Instrument 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 discretion. No delay or omission to exercise any
remedy, right or power accruing upon an Event of Default shall impair any such
remedy, right or power or shall be construed as a waiver thereof, but any such
remedy, right or power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be
deemed expedient. A waiver of one Default or Event of Default with respect to
Borrower or any Guarantor shall not be construed to be a waiver of any
subsequent Default or Event of Default by Borrower or any Guarantor or to impair
any remedy, right or power consequent thereon.
SECTION 17.4 COSTS OF COLLECTION. In the event that after an Event of
Default: (i) the Note or any of the Loan Documents is placed in the hands of an
attorney for collection or enforcement or is collected or enforced through any
legal proceeding; (ii) an attorney is retained to represent Lender in any
bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership, or other proceedings affecting
creditors' rights and involving a claim under the Note or any of the Loan
Documents; or (iii) an attorney is retained to protect or enforce the lien or
any of the terms of this Agreement, the Security Instrument or any of the Loan
Documents; then Borrower shall pay to Lender all reasonable attorney's fees,
costs and expenses actually incurred in connection therewith, including costs of
appeal, together with interest on any judgment obtained by Lender at the Default
Rate.

only and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement for any other
purpose.
SECTION 19.9 SEVERABILITY. Wherever possible, each provision of this

payments to Lender, which payment or proceeds or any part thereof are

or a Securitization, other than the Borrower's internal administrative costs.
Any cost and expenses due and payable to Lender may be paid from any amounts in

shall protect, indemnify and save harmless Lender, and all officers, directors,
stockholders, members, partners, employees, agents, successors and assigns
thereof (collectively, the INDEMNIFIED PARTIES) from and against all
liabilities, obligations, claims, damages, penalties, causes of action, costs
and expenses (including all reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses actually
incurred) imposed upon or incurred by or asserted against the Indemnified
Parties or the Property or any part of its interest therein, by reason of the
occurrence or existence of any of the following (to the extent Proceeds payable
on account of the following shall be inadequate; it being understood that in no
event will the Indemnified Parties be required to actually pay or incur any
costs or expenses as a condition to the effectiveness of the foregoing
indemnity) prior to (i) the acceptance by Lender or its designee of a
deed-in-lieu of foreclosure with respect to the Property, or (ii) an Indemnified
Party or its designee taking possession or control of the Property or (iii) the
foreclosure of the Security Instrument, except to the extent caused by the
willful misconduct or gross negligence of the Indemnified Parties (other than
such willful misconduct or gross negligence imputed to the Indemnified Parties
because of their interest in the Property): (1) ownership of Borrower's interest
in the Property, or any interest therein, or receipt of any Rents or other sum
therefrom, (2) any accident, injury to or death of any persons or loss of or
damage to property occurring on or about the Property or any Appurtenances
thereto, (3) any design, construction, operation, repair, maintenance, use,
non-use or condition of the Property or Appurtenances thereto, including claims
or penalties arising from violation of any Legal Requirement or Insurance
Requirement, as well as any claim based on any patent or latent defect, whether
or not discoverable by Lender,
153
any claim the insurance as to which is inadequate, and any Environmental Claim,
(4) any Default under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or any
failure on the part of Borrower to perform or comply with any of the terms of
any Lease within the applicable notice or grace periods, (5) any performance of
any labor or services or the furnishing of any materials or other property in
respect of the Property or any part thereof, (6) any negligence or tortious act
or omission on the part of Borrower or any of its agents, contractors, servants,
employees, sublessees, licensees or invitees, (7) any contest referred to in
Section 7.3 hereof, (8) any obligation or undertaking relating to the
performance or discharge of any of the terms, covenants and conditions of the
landlord contained in the Leases, or (9) except as may be expressly limited
herein, the presence at, in or under the Property or the Improvements of any
Hazardous Materials in violation of any Environmental Law. Any amounts the
Indemnified Parties are legally entitled to receive under this Section which are
not paid within fifteen (15) Business Days after written demand therefor by the
Indemnified Parties or Lender, setting forth in reasonable detail the amount of
such demand and the basis therefor, shall bear interest from the date of demand
at the Default Rate, and shall, together with such interest, be part of the
Indebtedness and secured by the Security Instrument. In case any action, suit or
proceeding is brought against the Indemnified Parties by reason of any such
occurrence, Borrower shall at Borrower's expense resist and defend such action,
suit or proceeding or will cause the same to be resisted and defended by counsel
at Borrower's reasonable expense for the insurer of the liability or by counsel
designated by Borrower (unless reasonably disapproved by Lender promptly after
Lender has been notified of such counsel); provided, however, that nothing
herein shall compromise the right of Lender (or any Indemnified Party) to
appoint its own counsel at Borrower's expense for its defense with respect to
any action which in its reasonable opinion presents a conflict or potential
conflict between Lender and Borrower that would make such separate
representation advisable; provided further that if Lender shall have appointed
separate counsel pursuant to the foregoing, Borrower shall not be responsible
for the expense of additional separate counsel of any Indemnified Party unless
in the reasonable opinion of Lender a conflict or potential conflict exists
between such Indemnified Party and Lender. So long as Borrower is resisting and
defending such action, suit or proceeding as provided above in a prudent and
commercially reasonable manner, Lender and the Indemnified Parties shall not be
entitled to settle such action, suit or proceeding without Borrower's consent
which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and claim the benefit of
this Section with respect to such action, suit or proceeding and Lender agrees
that it will not settle any such action, suit or proceeding without the consent
of Borrower; provided, however, that if Borrower is not diligently defending
such action, suit or proceeding in a prudent and commercially reasonable manner
as provided above, and Lender has provided Borrower with thirty (30) days' prior
written notice, or shorter period if mandated by the requirements of applicable
law, and opportunity to correct such determination, Lender may settle such
action, suit or proceeding and claim the benefit of this Section 19.12 with
respect to settlement of such action, suit or proceeding. Any Indemnified Party
will give Borrower prompt notice after such Indemnified Party obtains actual
knowledge of any potential claim by such Indemnified Party for indemnification
hereunder. The Indemnified Parties shall not settle or compromise any action,
proceeding or claim as to which it is indemnified hereunder without notice to
Borrower.
SECTION 19.13 EXHIBITS AND SCHEDULES INCORPORATED. The Exhibits and
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.
154
SECTION 19.14 OFFSETS, COUNTERCLAIMS AND DEFENSES. Any assignee of
Lender's interest in and to this Agreement, the Note 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 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 19.15 LIABILITY OF ASSIGNEES OF LENDER. No assignee of Lender
shall have any personal liability, directly or indirectly, under or in
connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any amendment or
amendments hereto made at any time or times, heretofore or hereafter, any
different than the liability of Lender hereunder. In addition, no assignee shall
have at any time or times hereafter any personal liability, directly or
indirectly, under or in connection with or secured by any agreement, lease,
instrument, encumbrance, claim or right affecting or relating to the Property or
to which the Property is now or hereafter subject any different than the
liability of Lender hereunder. The limitation of liability provided in this
Section 19.15 is (i) in addition to, and not in limitation of, any limitation of
liability applicable to the assignee provided by law or by any other contract,
agreement or instrument, and (ii) shall not apply to any assignee's gross
negligence or willful misconduct.
SECTION 19.16 NO JOINT VENTURE OR PARTNERSHIP; NO THIRD PARTY
BENEFICIARIES.
(a) 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 nor
to grant Lender any interest in the Property other than that of mortgagee,
beneficiary or lender.
This Agreement and the other Loan Documents are solely for the benefit of Lender
and Borrower and nothing contained in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents
shall be deemed to confer upon anyone other than Lender and Borrower any right
to insist upon or to enforce the performance or observance of any of the
obligations contained herein or therein provided, however, that it is hereby
agreed by Lender and Borrower that the provisions of Section 3.1.5 and the
provisions of Sections 6.2.2 and 6.2.5 (to the extent they relate to
disbursement of funds to any Mezzanine Account and/or to pay amounts owed in
connection with the Mezzanine Loans) are intended to confer upon Mezzanine
Lenders the right to insist upon and enforce the performance and observance of
the obligation expressly set forth therein. All conditions to the obligations of
Lender to make the Loan hereunder are imposed solely and exclusively for the
benefit of Lender and no other Person shall have standing to require
satisfaction of such conditions in accordance with their terms or be entitled to
assume that Lender will refuse to make the Loan in the absence of strict
compliance with any or all thereof 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 if, in Lender's sole
discretion, Lender deems it advisable or desirable to do so.
155
SECTION 19.17 PUBLICITY. All news releases, publicity or advertising by
Borrower or its Affiliates through any media intended to reach the general
public which refers to the Loan Documents or the financing evidenced by the Loan
Documents, to Lender, or any of its Affiliates shall be subject to the prior
written approval of Lender.
SECTION 19.18 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 shareholders
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 Indebtedness without any prior or different resort for
collection or of the right of Lender to the payment of the Indebtedness out of
the net proceeds of the Property in preference to every other claimant
whatsoever.
SECTION 19.19 WAIVER OF COUNTERCLAIM AND OTHER ACTIONS. Borrower hereby
expressly and unconditionally waives, in connection with any suit, action or
proceeding brought by Lender on this Agreement, the Note, the Security
Instrument or any Loan Document, any and every right it may have to (i)
interpose any counterclaim therein (other than a counterclaim which can only be
asserted in the suit, action or proceeding brought by Lender on this Agreement,
the Note, the Security Instrument or any Loan Document and cannot be maintained
in a separate action) and (ii) have any such suit, action or proceeding
consolidated with any other or separate suit, action or proceeding.
SECTION 19.20 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 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
equity 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 19.21 PRIOR AGREEMENTS. This Agreement and the other Loan

The undersigned being a registered surveyor of the State of [State]
hereby certifies to GERMAN AMERICAN CAPITAL CORPORATION, [NAME OF
BORROWING ENTITY] and [INSERT NAME OF TITLE COMPANY], and each of

follows:
This print of survey actually was made on the ground on [INSERT DATE
SURVEY WAS MADE] in accordance with the "Minimum Standard Detail
Requirements for ALTA/ACSM Land Title Surveys," jointly established
and adopted by American Land Title Association (ALTA) and American
Congress on Surveying & Mapping (ACSM) and National Society of
Professional Surveyors (NSPS) in 1999, contains Items 1, 2, 3, 4, 6,
7(a), 7(b)(1), 8, 9, 10, 11, 13, 14 and 16 of Table A thereto, and
correctly shows: (i) a fixed and determinable position and location
of the land described herein (together with the buildings and
improvements thereon, the MORTGAGED PROPERTY), including the
position of the point of beginning; (ii) the location of all
buildings, structures and other improvements situated on the land;
(iii) all driveways or other curb cuts along any street or alley
upon which the land abuts; (iv) the location and name of all public
and private streets or alleys located thereon or adjacent thereto,
all of which are public unless otherwise noted; (v) the location,

does not lie within an area designated as a flood hazard area by any
map or publication of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban
Development or the Federal Emergency Management Agency. The
Mortgaged Property and only the Mortgaged Property constitutes one
tax lot. All zoning use and density classifications are properly
shown hereon. The undersigned has received and examined a copy of
the Commitment for Title Insurance No. __________, dated __________,
issued by _____________________________, with respect to the

therein. The location of each exception set forth in such
Commitment, to the extent it can be located, has (with recording
reference and reference to the exception number of the Commitment)
been shown hereon. The undersigned further certifies that this
survey meets the Accuracy Standards (as adopted by ALTA, ACSM and

SINGLE PURPOSE ENTITY PROVISIONS
It is a requirement that the borrower be a bankruptcy remote,
special purpose entity. A bankruptcy remote, special purpose entity is an entity

insolvency. Set forth below is language to be included in the organizational
documents of corporations, limited partnerships and limited liability companies
to evidence such entities' existence as bankruptcy remote, special purpose
entities.
I. CORPORATION
If the Single Purpose Entity is a corporation, its certificate of
incorporation will have to have the following provisions to be considered a
special purpose entity:
A. Purpose
The corporation's purpose should be limited to owning
and operating the mortgaged property (or interests in the
Borrower).
"Notwithstanding any provision hereof or of any other

ownership assets, incurrence of additional debt and amendment
of the corporation's articles of incorporation.
"Notwithstanding any provision hereof or of any other
document governing the formation, management or operation of
the Corporation to the contrary, the following shall govern:
The Corporation shall only incur indebtedness in an amount
necessary to acquire, operate and maintain the [Property] [use
other term for the real estate if necessary]. For so long as
any mortgage lien exists on the [Property] [use other term for
the real estate if necessary], the Corporation shall not
incur, assume, or guaranty any other indebtedness. The
Corporation shall not consolidate or merge with or into any
other entity or convey or transfer its properties and assets
substantially as an entirety to any entity unless (i) the
entity (if other than the Corporation) formed or surviving
such consolidation or merger or that acquired by conveyance or
transfer the properties and assets of the Corporation
substantially as an entirety (a) shall be organized and
existing under the laws of the United States of America or any
State or the District of Columbia, (b) shall include in its

commence a case with respect to itself, as debtor, under the
Federal Bankruptcy Code or any similar federal or state
statute without the unanimous consent of the Board of
Directors. For so long as a mortgage lien exists on the
[Property] [use other term for the real estate if necessary],

the Corporation's By-Laws may be made without first obtaining
approval of the mortgagee holding a first mortgage lien on the
[Property] [use other term for the real estate if necessary]
and (ii) the Corporation shall not dissolve, terminate or
liquidate."
"The Board of Directors may not take any action requiring the
unanimous affirmative vote of 100% of the members of the Board
of Directors unless all directors including the Independent
Directors shall have participated in such vote."
C. Indemnification
C-2
Indemnification of a corporation's directors and
officers should be fully subordinated to obligations
respecting the Property.

document governing the formation, management or operation of
the Corporation to the contrary, the following shall govern:
Any indemnification shall be fully subordinated to any
obligations respecting the [Property] [use other term for the
real estate if necessary] and shall not constitute a claim
against the Corporation in the event that cash flow is
insufficient to pay such obligations."
D. Separateness Covenants
In order to demonstrate that it is a bankruptcy remote
entity not at risk of having its assets substantively
consolidated with those of another entity, the corporation
must observe certain covenants designed to make evident the
special purpose entity's separateness from its affiliates.
"Notwithstanding any provision hereof or of any other
document governing the formation, management or operation of
the Corporation to the contrary, the following shall govern:
For so long as any mortgage lien exists on the [Property] [use
other term for the real estate if necessary], in order to

any such partner, member, shareholder, supplier or customer, or (iv)
a member of the immediate family of any such shareholder, officer,
employee, supplier or customer of any
C-3
other director of the Corporation or of the managing member of the
Corporation. As used herein, the term "control" means the
possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause
the direction of the management and policies of a person or entity,
whether through ownership of voting securities, by contract or
otherwise.
(d) It shall not commingle assets with those of its parent and
any affiliate.
(e) It shall conduct its own business in its own name.
(f) It shall maintain financial statements separate from its
parent and any affiliate.
(g) It shall pay any liabilities out of its own funds,

by or under common control with the parent, including, without
limitation (i) any
C-4
person who has a familial relationship, by blood, marriage or
otherwise with any director, officer or employee of the
Corporation, its parent, or any affiliate thereof and (ii) any
person which receives compensation for administrative, legal
or accounting services from this corporation, its parent or
any affiliate. For purposes of this definition, "control" when
used with respect to any specified person, means the power to
direct the management and policies of such person, directly or
indirectly, whether through the ownership of voting
securities, by contract or otherwise; and the terms
"controlling" and "controlled" have meanings correlative to
the foregoing.
"parent" means, with respect to a corporation, any other
corporation owning or controlling, directly or indirectly,
fifty percent (50%) or more of the voting stock of the
Corporation.
"person" means any individual, corporation, partnership,
limited liability company, joint venture, association, joint
stock company, trust (including any beneficiary thereof),
unincorporated organization, or government or any agency or
political subdivision thereof.
II. LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
If the Single Purpose Entity is a limited partnership, to be a
special purpose entity, all of its general partners shall be
special purpose entities. If such limited partnership has more
than one general partner, then such limited partnership shall
continue (and not dissolve) for so long as a solvent general
partner exists. Consequently, both the limited partnership's
partnership agreement and the certificate of incorporation of
its general partner(s) will have to meet certain requirements
to be considered special purpose entities. Such requirements
are as follows:
A. Limited Partnership Agreement
1. Purpose
The limited partnership's purpose should be limited to
owning and operating the mortgaged property.
"Notwithstanding any provision hereof or of any other
document governing the formation, management or operation of
the Partnership to the contrary, the following shall govern:
The nature of the business and of the purposes to be conducted
and promoted by the Partnership, is to engage solely in the
following activities:

with all improvements located thereon, in the City of ___________,
State of _______________ [_______ interests in [insert Borrower or
other applicable entity's name]] (the "Property").
C-5
(b) To own, hold, sell, assign, transfer, operate, lease,
mortgage, pledge and otherwise deal with the Property.
(c) To exercise all powers enumerated in the Uniform Limited
Partnership Act of ____________ necessary or convenient to the
conduct, promotion or attainment of the business or purposes
otherwise set forth herein."
2. Certain Prohibited Activities
The partnership shall be prohibited, except in certain
circumstances, from engaging in certain activities, including
various types of insolvency proceedings, dissolution,
liquidation, consolidation, merger, sale of all or
substantially all of the partnership's assets, transfer of
partnership interests, incurrence of additional debt and
amendment of the partnership agreement.
"Notwithstanding any provision hereof or of any other
document governing the formation, management or operation of
the Partnership to the contrary, the following shall govern:
The Partnership shall only incur indebtedness in an amount
necessary to acquire, operate and maintain the [Property] [use
other term for the real estate if necessary]. For so long as
any mortgage lien exists on the [Property] [use other term for
the real estate if necessary], the Partnership shall not
incur, assume, or guaranty any other indebtedness. The
Partnership shall not consolidate or merge with or into any
other entity or convey or transfer its properties and assets
substantially as an entirety to any entity unless (i) the
entity (if other than the Partnership) formed or surviving
such consolidation or merger or that acquired by conveyance or
transfer the properties and assets of the Partnership
substantially as an entirety (a) shall be organized and
existing under the laws of the United States of America or any
State or the District of Columbia, (b) shall include in its
organizational documents the same limitations set forth in
this Article _______ and in Article [insert section setting
forth Separateness Covenants], and (c) shall expressly assume
the due and punctual performance of the Partnership's
obligations; and (ii) immediately after giving effect to such
transaction, no default or event of default under any
agreement to which it is a party shall have been committed by
this partnership and be continuing. For so long as a mortgage
lien exists on the [Property] [use other term for the real
estate if necessary], the Partnership will not voluntarily
commence a case with respect to itself, as debtor, under the
Federal Bankruptcy Code or any similar federal or state
statute without the unanimous consent of all of the partners
of the Partnership. For so long as a mortgage lien exists on
the [Property] [use other term for the real estate if
necessary], (i) no amendment to this partnership agreement may
be made and (ii) the partnership shall not dissolve, liquidate
or terminate without first obtaining approval of the mortgagee
holding a first mortgage lien on the [Property] [use other
term for the real estate if necessary]."
C-6
3. Indemnification
Indemnification of a partnership's partners should be
fully subordinated to obligations respecting the Property.
"Notwithstanding any provision hereof or of any other
document governing the formation, management or operation of
the Partnership to the contrary, the following shall govern:
Any indemnification shall be fully subordinated to any
obligations respecting the [Property] [use other term for the
real estate if necessary] and shall not constitute a claim
against the Partnership in the event that cash flow is
insufficient to pay such obligations."
4. Separateness Covenants
In order to demonstrate that it is a bankruptcy remote
entity not at risk of having its assets substantively
consolidated with those of another entity, the partnership
must observe certain covenants designed to make evident the
special purpose entity's separateness from its affiliates.
"Notwithstanding any provision hereof or of any other
document governing the formation, management or operation of
the Partnership to the contrary, the following shall govern:
For so long as any mortgage lien exists on the [Property] [use
other term for the real estate if necessary], in order to
preserve and ensure its separate and distinct identity, in
addition to the other provisions set forth in this partnership
agreement, the Partnership shall conduct its affairs in

EXHIBIT D
ENFORCEABILITY OPINION REQUIREMENTS
1. The Opinion shall be delivered on the Closing Date and shall satisfy
all applicable requirements of the Rating Agencies in relation thereto.
2. The Opinion shall be given by a professional law firm selected by
Borrower and reasonably acceptable to Lender.
3. The Opinion shall be in form and substance acceptable to Lender and
shall be given in relation to Borrower, Guarantor, Manager and any other
relevant party to the Loan (each a "Loan Party"). Depending on the nature of the
transaction, the Opinion shall address the applicable law of the State of New
York, the State where the Property is located and each State where any Loan
Party is organized (collectively, the "Relevant States"). To the extent that the
Property is located in a jurisdiction outside of the State of New York and/or
any Loan Party is organized under a jurisdiction outside the State of New York,
the appropriate opinions below should be given by local counsel. The Opinion
shall be given on the basis of an examination of an executed original of each
completed Loan Document in addition to such other documents or instruments
counsel deems relevant.
4. The Opinion shall contain the following opinions:
(a) Each Loan Party is a [Describe Legal Form] duly organized, validly
existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of [State
of Organization] and is authorized to do business and in good
standing in each Relevant State.
(b) Each Loan Party has the requisite power to own its properties and to
carry on its business as now being conducted.
(c) The execution and delivery by each Loan Party of each Loan Document
to which it is a party has been duly authorized by all necessary
partnership, company and/or corporate action, as applicable. To the
extent a party thereto, the Loan Documents have been duly executed
and delivered by each Loan Party.
(d) The execution, delivery and performance by each Loan Party of the
Loan Documents to which it is a party does not:
i. conflict with or result in a breach of any of the terms,
conditions or provisions of, or constitute a default
under, the partnership agreement, partnership
certificate, articles of incorporation, by-laws, trust
agreement or trust certificate, as applicable, of such
Loan Party;
ii. contravene any law, statute or regulation of the United
States of America or the Relevant States or any agency
or political subdivision of either thereof;
D-1
iii. violate any order, writ, injunction, or decree of which,
after due inquiry, counsel has actual knowledge, issued
by any court or governmental authority of the United
States of America or the Relevant States or any agency
or political subdivision of either thereof to which such
Loan Party is subject; or
iv. conflict with or result in any breach of any of the
terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under,
or result in the creation or imposition of (or the
obligation to create or impose) any lien other than the
lien of the Security Instrument and the Assignment of
Leases upon any of the assets or properties of such Loan
Party pursuant to the terms of any material indenture,
mortgage, deed of trust, agreement, contract or
instrument to which such Loan Party is a party or by
which it or any of its assets or properties is bound.
(e) To the extent a party thereto, the Loan Documents are the legal,
valid and binding obligations of each Loan Party, enforceable
against such Loan Party in accordance with their terms.
(f) The Security Instrument is in proper form so as to comply with
recording requirements of the State of [Location of Property], and
upon recordation of the Security Instrument in the office of the
[Recorder's Office] (the "Recording Office"), the Security
Instrument will create in favor of Lender valid and perfected liens
on the Property, securing payment of the obligations purported to be
secured thereby, and no further action will be required to perfect
such liens. The Security Instrument grants to Lender a valid and
perfected security interest in the fixtures described therein. The
Security Instrument contains such rights and remedies in favor of
Lender as are customarily found in [mortgages/deeds of trust/deeds
to secure debt] recorded in the State of [Location of Property].
(g) The Assignment of Leases is in proper form so as to comply with the
recording requirements of the State of [Location of Property]. At
the time the Assignment of Leases is delivered to the Recording
Office for recording, it will take effect as to all creditors and
subsequent purchasers for a valuable consideration without notice,
and it shall be entitled to priority over any other similar
instrument delivered to said Recording Office for recording after
that time, in the absence of actual notice.
(h) The Financing Statements are in proper form so as to comply with the
filing requirements of the State of [Location of Property] and, upon
filing of the Financing Statements in the office of the Secretary of
State and the Recording Office and the appropriate Recording Office
(the "UCC Filing Offices"), the Financing Statements will perfect
the lien in favor of Lender, created by the Security Instrument on
the fixtures, equipment, inventory, accounts, chattel paper and
general intangibles described therein.
D-2
(i) Borrower has paid all recording tax due in connection with the
recording of the Security Instrument and the Assignment of Leases.
No additional deed of trust recording, intangibles tax, documentary
stamp tax or similar taxes or charges, other than nominal
recordation or filing fees, are required to be paid as a condition
of the legality of enforceability of the Security Instrument or the
Assignment of Leases.
(j) The Loan and Security Agreement is effective to create in favor of
Lender a valid and perfected security interest under the UCC
(including the UCC as made applicable to any security entitlements
with respect to book-entry securities (as such term is defined in 31
CFR Section 357.2) pursuant to 31 CFR Section 357.11) in all of
Borrower's right, title and interest in the security entitlements in
the Securities Accounts. Such security interest has priority under
the UCC over any conflicting security interest under the UCC.
"Security entitlement" has the meaning set forth in Section
8-102(a)(17) of the UCC with respect to "financial assets" (as
defined in Section 8-102(a)(9) of the UCC) and the meaning set forth
in 31 CFR Section 357.2 with respect to "book-entry securities" (as
defined in 31 CFR Section 357.2).
(k) The provisions of the Security Instrument are effective to create,
in favor of Lender to secure the obligations purported to be secured
thereby, a valid security interest in Borrower's rights in that
portion of the collateral which is subject to Article 9 of the UCC
(the "UCC Collateral").
(l) The State of [Location of Property] has no law pursuant to which a
lien against any assets or properties of Borrower (whether real,
personal, mixed, tangible or intangible) superior to the lien
created by the Security Instrument could arise as a result of a
violation of environmental laws or regulations of such State. No
environmental law or regulation of the State of [Location of
Property] would require any remedial or removal action or
certification of nonapplicability as a condition to the granting of
the Security Instrument, the foreclosure or other enforcement of the
Loan Documents or the sale of any assets or properties of Borrower
(whether real, personal, mixed, tangible or intangible) located in
the State of [Location of Property].
(m) No order, consent, approval, license or authorization of, or filing,
recording or registration with, any governmental or public body or
authority of the United States of America or the Relevant States or
any agency or political subdivision of either thereof is required in
connection with the execution and delivery of any of the Loan
Documents, the validity, binding effect or enforceability of any of
the Loan Documents or the consummation of the transactions
contemplated thereby.
(n) There are no actions, suits or proceedings by or before any court,
governmental or regulatory authority or agency of which, after due
inquiry, we have actual knowledge pending or threatened against or
affecting any Loan Party or Borrower's rights with respect to the
Property wherein an adverse ruling or decision, individually or
collectively with other such actions, suits or proceedings, is
reasonably likely (i) to affect materially and adversely the ability
of any Loan
D-3
Party to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Loan
Documents or to perform its obligations under any of the Loan
Documents, or (ii) to result in a challenge to the legality,
validity, binding effect or enforceability of any of the Loan
Documents.
(o) No approval, authorization or other action by, or filing with, any
governmental authority of the United States of America or the
Relevant States of is required for the valid execution, delivery and
performance by any Borrower Party of any of the Loan Documents.
(p) Based upon facts of which counsel has actual knowledge, the
transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents do not constitute a
fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer or a preferential
transfer under the laws of the Relevant States, so long as the
conveyances are made for adequate consideration and in good faith.
(q) The payment by Borrower and receipt by Lender of all principal and
interest and other payments required to be paid pursuant to the
terms of the Note and the other Loan Documents (including, without
limitation, the provisions for interest after default and late
charges) will not violate the usury laws of the Relevant States or
otherwise constitute unlawful interest.
(r) Lender is not required to register as a foreign entity or qualify to
do business in the State of [Location of Property] solely by reason
of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents.
(s) Lender will not become subject to any fees, charges or income,
franchise or other tax imposed by the State of [Location of
Property] or be required to obtain any license, approval, or
authorization in the State of [Location of Property] solely by
reason of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents.

EXHIBIT E
NON-CONSOLIDATION OPINION REQUIREMENTS
1. The Nonconsolidation Opinion shall be delivered on the Closing
Date and shall satisfy all applicable requirements of the Rating Agencies in
relation thereto.
2. The Nonconsolidation Opinion shall be given by a professional law
firm selected by Borrower and reasonably acceptable to Lender.
3. The Nonconsolidation Opinion shall be in form and substance
acceptable to Lender and shall be given in relation to both Borrower and any
other SPE Entity relevant to the Loan. The Nonconsolidation Opinion shall
identify each entity (a "Relevant Entity") which owns more than a 49% direct or
indirect interest in either Borrower and/or such SPE Entity. Depending on the
circumstances and nature of the transaction structure, a non-affiliated entity,
such as a third party property manager, shall be included as a Relevant Entity
if required by the Rating Agencies.
4. The Nonconsolidation Opinion shall state that, in the event that
any Relevant Entity were to be a debtor in a case under the Bankruptcy Code, it
is counsel's opinion that, under present reported decisional authority and
statutes applicable to federal bankruptcy cases, in a properly presented and
argued case, a court would not, in the proper exercise of its equitable
discretion, disregard the separate existence of Borrower or any SPE Entity so as
to order substantive consolidation under the Bankruptcy Code of the assets and
liabilities of such Relevant Entity with the assets and liabilities of either
Borrower or any SPE Entity and treat such assets and liabilities as though
either Borrower and such Relevant Entity or any SPE Entity and such Relevant
Entity were one entity.
5. The Nonconsolidation Opinion shall be addressed to Lender and its
successors and assigns and shall state that it may be relied upon by (i) any
assignee of Lender's interest in the Loan, (ii) any participant of Lender's
interest in the Loan, (iii) any servicer of the Loan, (iv) any purchaser of the
Loan or any portion thereof in any Securitization, (v) any Rating Agency
involved in a Securitization of the Loan, (vi) the issuer of securities in a
Securitization of the Loan, and (vii) any trustee or servicer appointed in
connection with a Securitization of the Loan.

THIS AGREEMENT made as of this ___ day of _____, 200_, between
GERMAN AMERICAN CAPITAL CORPORATION, a Maryland corporation, having an address
at 00 Xxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000 (hereinafter called "Lender"), and
________, a __________________, having an address at __________________
(hereinafter called "Tenant").
WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS, by a lease (the "Original Lease") dated ________, 200_
between _______________ (hereinafter called "Landlord"), as landlord, and
Tenant, as tenant, as amended by lease amendment[s] dated ______, 200_,
[_________, 200_ and _________, 200_] (the Original Lease, as so amended, is
hereinafter the "Lease"), a memorandum of which Lease was dated ____ and was
recorded in __________ in Reel ______, Page ___, [add recording data for
memoranda of amendments, if applicable], Landlord leased to Tenant certain
premises located in ___________________________(the "Premises") on the property
described in Schedule "A" annexed hereto and made a part hereof (the
"Property"); and
WHEREAS, Lender is about to make a loan to Landlord, which loan
shall be secured by, among other things, a mortgage or deed of trust (which
mortgage or deed of trust, and all amendments, renewals, increases,
modifications, replacements, substitutions, extensions, spreaders and
consolidations thereof and all re-advances thereunder and addictions thereto, is
referred to as the "Security Instrument") encumbering the Property; and
WHEREAS, Lender and Tenant desire to confirm their understanding and
agreement with respect to the Lease and the Security Instrument.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and
agreements herein contained, Lender and Tenant hereby agree and covenant as
follows:
1. The Lease, and all of the terms, covenants, provisions and
conditions thereof (including, without limitation, any right of first refusal,
right of first offer, option or any similar right with respect to the sale or
purchase of the Property, or any portion thereof) is, shall be and shall at all
times remain and continue to be subject and subordinate in all respects to the
lien, terms, covenants, provisions and conditions of the Security Instrument and
to all advances and re-advances made thereunder and all sums secured thereby.
This provision shall be self-operative but Tenant shall execute and deliver any
additional instruments which Lender may reasonably require to effect such
subordination.
2. So long as (i) Tenant is not in default (beyond any period given
in the Lease to Tenant to cure such default) in the payment of rent, percentage
rent or additional rent or in the performance or observance of any of the other
terms, covenants, provisions or conditions of the Lease on Tenant's part to be
performed or observed, (ii) Tenant is not in default under this Agreement and
(iii) the Lease is in full force and effect: (a) Tenant's possession of the
Premises and Tenant's rights and privileges under the Lease, or any extensions
or renewals thereof which may be effected in accordance with any option therefor
which is contained in the Lease, shall not
K-2
be diminished or interfered with by Lender, and Tenant's occupancy of the
Premises shall not be disturbed by Lender for any reason whatsoever during the
term of the Lease or any such extensions or renewals thereof and (b) Lender will
not join Tenant as a party defendant in any action or proceeding to foreclose
the Security Instrument or to enforce any rights or remedies of Lender under the
Security Instrument which would cut-off, destroy, terminate or extinguish the
Lease or Tenant's interest and estate under the Lease (except to the extent
required so that Tenant's right to receive or set-off any monies or obligations
owed or to be performed by any of Lender's predecessors-in-interest shall not be
enforceable thereafter against Lender or any of Lender's
successors-in-interest). Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this
paragraph, if it would be procedurally disadvantageous for Lender not to name or
join Tenant as a party in a foreclosure proceeding with respect to the Security
Instrument, Lender may so name or join Tenant without in any way diminishing or
otherwise affecting the rights and privileges granted to, or inuring to the
benefit of, Tenant under this Agreement.
3. (A) After notice is given by Lender that the Security Instrument
is in default and that the rentals under the Lease should be paid to Lender,
Tenant will attorn to Lender and pay to Lender, or pay in accordance with the
directions of Lender, all rentals and other monies due and to become due to
Landlord under the Lease or otherwise in respect of the Premises. Such payments
shall be made regardless of any right of set-off, counterclaim or other defense
which Tenant may have against Landlord, whether as the tenant under the Lease or
otherwise.
(A) In addition, if Lender (or its nominee or designee) shall
succeed to the rights of Landlord under the Lease through possession or
foreclosure action, delivery of a deed or otherwise, or another person purchases
the Property or the portion thereof containing the Premises upon or following
foreclosure of the Security Instrument or in connection with any bankruptcy case
commenced by or against Landlord, then at the request of Lender (or its nominee
or designee) or such purchaser (Lender, its nominees and designees, and such
purchaser, and their respective successors and assigns, each being a
"Successor-Landlord"), Tenant shall attorn to and recognize Successor-Landlord
as Tenant's landlord under the Lease and shall promptly execute and deliver any
instrument that Successor-Landlord may reasonably request to evidence such
attornment. Upon such attornment, the Lease shall continue in full force and
effect as, or as if it were, a direct lease between Successor-Landlord and
Tenant upon all terms, conditions and covenants as are set forth in the Lease.
If the Lease shall have terminated by operation of law or otherwise as a result
of or in connection with a bankruptcy case commenced by or against Landlord or a
foreclosure action or proceeding or delivery of a deed in lieu, upon request of
Successor-Landlord, Tenant shall promptly execute and deliver a direct lease
with Successor-Landlord which direct lease shall be on substantially the same
terms and conditions as the Lease (subject, however, to the provisions of
clauses (i)-(v) of this paragraph 3(B)) and shall be effective as of the day the
Lease shall have terminated as aforesaid. Notwithstanding the continuation of
the Lease, the attornment of Tenant thereunder or the execution of a direct
lease between Successor-Landlord and Tenant as aforesaid, Successor-Landlord
shall not:
(ii) be liable for any previous act or omission of Landlord
under the Lease;
K-3
(iii) be subject to any off-set, defense or counterclaim which
shall have theretofore accrued to Tenant against Landlord;
(iv) be bound by any modification of the Lease or by any previous
prepayment of rent or additional rent made more than one (1) month prior to the
date same was due which Tenant might have paid to Landlord, unless such
modification or prepayment shall have been expressly approved in writing by
Lender;
(v) be liable for any security deposited under the Lease unless
such security has been physically delivered to Lender or Successor-Landlord; and
(vi) be liable or obligated to comply with or fulfill any of the
obligations of the Landlord under the Lease or any agreement relating thereto
with respect to the construction of, or payment for, improvements on or above
the Premises (or any portion thereof), leasehold improvements, tenant work
letters and/or similar items.
4. Tenant agrees that without the prior written consent of Lender,
it shall not (a) amend, modify, terminate or cancel the Lease or any extensions
or renewals thereof, (b) tender a surrender of the Lease, (c) make a prepayment
of any rent or additional rent more than one (1) month in advance of the due
date thereof, or (d) subordinate or permit the subordination of the Lease to any
lien subordinate to the Security Instrument. Any such purported action without
such consent shall be void as against the holder of the Security Instrument.
5. (A) Tenant shall promptly notify Lender of any default by
Landlord under the Lease and of any act or omission of Landlord which would give
Tenant the right to cancel or terminate the Lease or to claim a partial or total
eviction.
(B) In the event of a default by Landlord under the Lease which
would give Tenant the right, immediately or after the lapse of a period of time,
to cancel or terminate the Lease or to claim a partial or total eviction, or in
the event of any other act or omission of Landlord which would give Tenant the
right to cancel or terminate the Lease, Tenant shall not exercise such right (i)
until Tenant has given written notice of such default, act or omission to Lender
and (ii) unless Lender has failed, within sixty (60) days after Lender receives
such notice, to cure or remedy the default, act or omission or, if such default,
act or omission shall be one which is not reasonably capable of being remedied
by Lender within such sixty (60) day period, until a reasonable period for
remedying such default, act or omission shall have elapsed following the giving
of such notice and following the time when Lender shall have become entitled
under the Security Instrument to remedy the same (which reasonable period shall
in no event be less than the period to which Landlord would be entitled under
the Lease or otherwise, after similar notice, to effect such remedy), provided
that Lender shall with due diligence give Tenant written notice of its intention
to and shall commence and continue to, remedy such default, act or omission. If
Lender cannot reasonably remedy a default, act or omission of Landlord until
after Lender obtains possession of the Premises, Tenant may not terminate or
cancel the Lease or claim a partial or total eviction by reason of such default,
act or omission until the expiration of a reasonable period necessary for the
remedy after Lender secures possession of the Premises. To the extent Lender
incurs any expenses or other costs in curing or
K-4
remedying such default, act or omission, including, without limitation,
attorneys' fees and disbursements, Lender shall be subrogated to Tenant's rights
against Landlord.
(C) Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender shall have no
obligation hereunder to remedy such default, act or omission.
6. To the extent that the Lease shall entitle Tenant to notice of
the existence of any mortgage and the identity of any mortgagee or any ground
lessor, this Agreement shall constitute such notice to Tenant with respect to
the Security Instrument and Lender.
7. Upon and after the occurrence of a default under the Security
Instrument, which is not cured after any applicable notice and/or cure periods,
Lender shall be entitled, but not obligated, to exercise the claims, rights,
powers, privileges and remedies of Landlord under the Lease and shall be further
entitled to the benefits of, and to receive and enforce performance of, all of
the covenants to be performed by Tenant under the Lease as though Lender were
named therein as Landlord.
8. Anything herein or in the Lease to the contrary notwithstanding,
in the event that a Successor-Landlord shall acquire title to the Property or
the portion thereof containing the Premises, Successor-Landlord shall have no
obligation, nor incur any liability, beyond Successor-Landlord's then interest,
if any, in the Property, and Tenant shall look exclusively to such interest, if
any, of Successor-Landlord in the Property for the payment and discharge of any
obligations imposed upon Successor-Landlord hereunder or under the Lease, and
Successor-Landlord is hereby released or relieved of any other liability
hereunder and under the Lease. Tenant agrees that, with respect to any money
judgment which may be obtained or secured by Tenant against Successor-Landlord,
Tenant shall look solely to the estate or interest owned by Successor-Landlord
in the Property, and Tenant will not collect or attempt to collect any such
judgment out of any other assets of Successor-Landlord.
9. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Lease, Tenant
agrees for the benefit of Landlord and Lender that, except as permitted by, and
fully in accordance with, applicable law, Tenant shall not generate, store,
handle, discharge or maintain in, on or about any portion of the Property, any
asbestos, polychlorinated biphenyls, or any other hazardous or toxic materials,
wastes and substances which are defined, determined or identified as such
(including, but not limited to, pesticides and petroleum products if they are
defined, determined or identified as such) in any federal, state or local laws,
rules or regulations (whether now existing or hereafter enacted or promulgated)
or any judicial or administrative interpretation of any thereof, including any
judicial or administrative interpretation of any thereof, including any judicial
or administrative orders or judgments.
10. If the Lease provides that Tenant is entitled to expansion
space, Successor-Landlord shall have no obligation nor any liability for failure
to provide such expansion space if a prior landlord (including, without
limitation, Landlord), by reason of a lease or leases entered into by such prior
landlord with other tenants of the Property, has precluded the availability of
such expansion space.
K-5
11. Except as specifically provided in this Agreement, Lender shall
not, by virtue of this Agreement, the Security Instrument or any other
instrument to which Lender may be a party, be or become subject to any liability
or obligation to Tenant under the Lease or otherwise.
12. (A) Tenant acknowledges and agrees that this Agreement satisfies
and complies in all respects with the provisions of Article __ of the Lease and
that this Agreement supersedes (but only to the extent inconsistent with) the
provisions of such Article and any other provision of the Lease relating to the
priority or subordination of the Lease and the interests or estates created
thereby to the Security Instrument.
(B) Tenant agrees to enter into a subordination, non-disturbance
and attornment agreement with any lender which shall succeed Lender as lender
with respect to the Property, or any portion thereof, provided such agreement is
substantially similar to this Agreement. Tenant does herewith irrevocably
appoint and constitute Lender as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact in its
name, place and stead to execute such subordination, non-disturbance and
attornment agreement, without any obligation on the part of Lender to do so.
This power, being coupled with an interest, shall be irrevocable as long as the
Indebtedness secured by the Security Instrument remains unpaid. Lender agrees
not to exercise its rights under the preceding two sentences if Tenant promptly
enters into the subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement as
required pursuant to the first sentence of this subparagraph (B).
13. (A) Any notice required or permitted to be given by Tenant to
Landlord shall be simultaneously given also to Lender, and any right to Tenant
dependent upon notice shall take effect only after notice is so given.
Performance by Lender shall satisfy any conditions of the Lease requiring
performance by Landlord, and Lender shall have a reasonable time to complete
such performance as provided in Paragraph 5 hereof.
(B) All notices or other communications required or permitted to
be given to Tenant or to Lender pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement
shall be in writing and shall be deemed given only if mailed by United States
registered mail, postage prepaid, or if sent by nationally recognized overnight
delivery service (such as Federal Express or United States Postal Service
Express Mail), addressed as follows: to Tenant, at the address first set forth
above, Attention: __________; to Lender, at the address first set forth above,

party may hereafter designate by notice delivered in accordance herewith. All
such notices shall be deemed given three (3) business days after delivery to the
United States Post office registry clerk if given by registered mail, or on the
next business day after delivery to an overnight delivery courier.
14. This Agreement may be modified only by an agreement in writing
signed by the parties hereto, or their respective successors-in-interest. This
Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto,
and their respective successors and assigns. The term "Lender" shall mean the
then holder of the Security Instrument. The term "Landlord" shall mean the then
holder of the landlord's interest in the Lease. The term "person" shall mean
K-6
an individual, joint venture, corporation, partnership, trust, limited liability
company, unincorporated association or other entity. All references herein to
the Lease shall mean the Lease as modified by this Agreement and to any
amendments or modifications to the Lease which are consented to in writing by
Lender. Any inconsistency between the Lease and the provisions of this Agreement
shall be resolved, to the extent of such inconsistency, in favor of this
Agreement.
15. Tenant hereby represents to Lender as follows:
(a) The Lease is in full force and effect and has not been further
amended.
(b) There has been no assignment of the Lease or subletting of any
portion of the premises demised under the Lease.
(c) There are no oral or written agreements or understandings
between Landlord and Tenant relating to the premises demised under the Lease or

default (beyond any applicable grace period) on the part of either Tenant or
Landlord under the Lease.
(e) There has not been filed by or against nor to the best of the
knowledge and belief of Tenant is there threatened against Tenant, any petition
under the bankruptcy laws of the United States.
(f) To the best of Tenant's knowledge, there is no present
assignment, hypothecation or pledge of the Lease or rents accruing under the
Lease by Landlord, other than pursuant to the Security Instrument.
16. Whenever, from time to time, reasonably requested by Lender (but
not more than three (3) times during any calendar year), Tenant shall execute
and deliver to or at the direction of Lender, and without charge to Lender, one
or more written certifications, in a form acceptable to Tenant, of all of the
matters set forth in Paragraph 15 above, and any other information the Lender
may reasonably require to confirm the current status of the Lease.
17. BOTH TENANT AND LENDER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE ALL RIGHT TO
TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR
RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT.

Section _________. Shares and Share Certificates
(a) Shares. A [Member's limited liability company interest in the Company]
[Partner's limited partnership interest in the Partnership] shall be
represented by the Shares issued to such [Member by the Company][Partner
of the Partnership] . All of a [Member's][Partner's] Shares, in the
aggregate, represent such [Member's][Partner's] entire [Partner by the
Partnership] [limited liability company interest in the Company [limited
partnership interest in the Partnership]. The [Member][Partner] hereby
agrees that its interest in the [Company][Partnership] and in its Shares
shall for all purposes be personal property. A [Member] [Partner] has no
interest in specific [Company][Partnership] property. "Share" means a
[limited liability company interest][limited partnership interest] in the
[Company][Partnership] held by a [Member][Partner].
(b) Share Certificates.
i. Upon the issuance of Shares to any [Member][Partner] in
accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, the
[Company][Partnership] shall issue one or more Share
Certificates in the name of such [Member][Partner]. Each such
Share Certificate shall be denominated in terms of the number
of Shares evidenced by such Share Certificate and shall be
signed by the [Member][Partner] on behalf of the
[Company][Partnership]. "Share Certificate" means a
non-negotiable certificate issued by the
[Company][Partnership] substantially in the form of Schedule
hereto, which evidences the ownership of one or more Shares.
Each Share Certificate shall bear the following legend: "This
certificate evidences an interest in
________________________and shall be a security interest for
purposes of Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code of the
State of Delaware and the Uniform Commercial Code of any other
Jurisdiction." This provision shall not be amended, and no
such purported amendment to this provision shall be effective
until all outstanding certificates have been surrendered for
cancellation.
ii. The [Company][Partnership] shall issue a new Share Certificate
in place of any Share Certificate previously issued if the
holder of the Shares represented by such Share Certificate, as
reflected on the books and records of the
[Company][Partnership].
(1) makes proof by affidavit, in form and substance
satisfactory to the [Company][Partnership], that
N-1
such previously issued Share Certificate has been
lost, stolen or destroyed.
(2) requests the issuance of a new Share Certificate
before the [Company][Partnership] has notice that
such previously issued Share Certificate has been
acquired by a purchaser for value in good faith
and without notice of an adverse claim;
(3) if requested by the [Company][Partnership],
delivers to the [Company][Partnership] a bond, in
form and substance satisfactory to the
[Company][Partnership], with such surety or
sureties as the [Company][Partnership] may direct,
to indemnify the [Company][Partnership] against
any claim that may be made on account of the
alleged loss, destruction or theft of the
previously issued Share Certificate; and
(4) satisfies any other reasonable requirements
imposed by the [Company][Partnership].
iii. Subject to the restrictions set forth in [describe Loan
Agreement/Mezzanine Loan Agreement restrictions] upon a
[Member's][Partner's]'s Transfer in accordance with the
provisions of this Agreement of any or all Shares represented
by a Share Certificate, the Transferee of such Shares shall
deliver such Share Certificate to the [Company][Partnership]
for cancellation, and the [Company][Partnership] shall
thereupon issue a new Share Certificate to such Transferee for
the number of Shares being Transferred and, if applicable,
cause to be issued to such [Member][Partner] a new Share
Certificate for that number of Shares that were represented by
the canceled Share Certificate and that are not being
Transferred. "Transfer" means, with respect to any Shares, and
when used as a verb, to sell or assign such Shares, and, when
used as a noun, shall have a meaning that correlates to the
foregoing. "Transferee" means an assignee or transferee.
"Transferor" means the Person making a Transfer.
(c) Free Transferability.
Except as limited by the [describe Loan Agreement/Mezzanine Loan
Agreement restrictions], to the fullest extent permitted by the Act, any
[Member][Partner] may, at any time or from time to time, without the consent of
any other Person, Transfer, pledge or encumber any or all of its Shares. Subject
to the restrictions of the [describe Loan Agreement/Mezzanine Loan Agreement
restrictions], the Transferee of any Shares shall be admitted to the
[Company][Partnership] as a substitute member of the [Company][Partnership] on
the effective
N-2
date of such Transfer upon (i) such Transferee's written acceptance of the terms
and provisions of this Agreement and its written assumption of the obligations
hereunder of the Transferor of such Shares, which shall be evidenced by such
Transferee's execution and delivery to the [Company][Partnership] of an
Application for Transfer of Shares on the reverse side of the Share Certificate
representing the Shares being transferred, and (ii) the recording of such
Transferee's name as a Substitute [Member][Partner] on the books and records of
the [Company][Partnership]. Any Transfer of any Shares pursuant to this Section
__ shall be effective as of the later of (i) the close of business on the day on
which such Transfer occurs, or (ii) the effective date and time of such Transfer
that is designated in the Application for Transfer of Shares delivered by the
Transferee to the [Company][Partnership].

FORM OF COMPLETION GUARANTY
THIS COMPLETION GUARANTY (this "Guaranty") is made as of [ ] by CNL
HOTELS & RESORTS, INC, a Maryland corporation, "Guarantor"), having an address
at 000 X. Xxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxx 00000, for the benefit of GERMAN
AMERICAN CAPITAL CORPORATION, having an address at 00 Xxxx Xxxxxx, 00xx Xxxxx,
Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000 (together with its successors and assigns in such
capacity, "Lender").
W I T N E S S E T H:
- - - - - - - - - -
WHEREAS, [ ], a Delaware limited partnership ("Borrower"),
together with certain borrower parties named therein, executed and delivered to
Lender on January 9, 2006, a Promissory Note (as the same may be amended,
supplemented, restated or otherwise modified from time to time, the "Note")
evidencing a principal indebtedness of $1,000,000,000.00 (the "Loan") pursuant
to the Loan and Security Agreement among Borrower, certain other borrower
parties and Lender (as the same may be amended, supplemented, restated or
otherwise modified from time to time, the "Loan Agreement") and secured by a
Multi-State Amended, Restated and Consolidated Fee and Leasehold Mortgage, Deed
of Trust, Security Agreement, Financing Statement, Fixture Filing, and
Assignment of Leases, Rents, Hotel Revenue and Security Deposits (as the same
may be amended, supplemented, restated or otherwise modified from time to time,
the "Mortgage");
WHEREAS, as a condition to approving the commencement of the
Existing Project, described as the [ ] Redevelopment Project in Schedule XVI of
the Loan Agreement (the "Project") at the property commonly known as [ ] (the
"Property") the Lender has required Guarantor to deliver this Guaranty for the
benefit of Lender; and
WHEREAS, the forgoing recitals are intended to form an integral part
of this Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises, Ten
Dollars ($10.00) paid in hand, and other good and valuable consideration, the
receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, Guarantor agrees as
follows:
1. Definitions. Capitalized terms used herein and not defined shall have
the meaning provided in the Loan Agreement.
2. Guaranty of Final Completion.
(a) Guarantor hereby irrevocably, absolutely and unconditionally
guarantees the Final Completion of the Project in accordance with and
subject to the terms and conditions of the Loan Agreement, the other Loan
Documents and this Guaranty (the "Guaranteed Obligations").
(b) If any of the obligations of Borrower under Section 10.2 (i) of
the Loan Agreement are not complied with, in any respect whatsoever, and
without the necessity of any notice from Lender to Guarantor, Guarantor
agrees to (i) provide adequate capital, as a capital contribution to
Borrower, to fund the Final Completion of the Project, (ii) assume all
responsibility for the Final Completion of the Project and, at Guarantor's
own cost and expense, to cause Final Completion of the Project to be fully
completed in substantial accordance with the Loan Agreement; (iii) pay all
bills in connection with the Final Completion of the Project; and (iv)
indemnify and hold Lender harmless from any and all loss, cost, liability
or expense Lender may suffer by reason thereof. Lender shall accept
performance by Guarantor of Borrower's obligations under the Loan
Documents with respect to Final Completion of the Project.
(c) If an Event of Default has occurred and Borrower is not
complying with its obligations under Section 10.2 (i) of the Loan
Agreement or Guarantor is not complying with its obligations under Section
2 (a) and (b) above, Lender may, at its option, cause Final Completion of
the Project either before or after exercise of commencement of foreclosure
proceedings or before or after any other remedy of Lender against Borrower
or Guarantor, with such changes or modifications in the Project which
Lender reasonably deems necessary and expend such sums as Lender, in its
sole discretion, deems necessary and proper in order so to cause Final
Completion of the Project and Guarantor hereby waives any rights to
contest any such necessary expenditures. The amount of any and all
expenditures made by Lender for the forgoing purposes shall be due and
payable to Lender upon demand and shall accrue interest as provided in the
Loan Documents.
(d) Lender does not have and shall never have any obligation to
assume responsibility for the Final Completion of the Project as set forth
in Section 2 (c) above.
3. Primary Liability of Guarantor. Subject to the terms, conditions and
limitations of this Guaranty, this Guaranty is an absolute, irrevocable and
unconditional guaranty of completion. Guarantor shall, on demand and without
presentment, protest, notice of protest, further notice of dishonor or of
default or nonperformance, or further notice of acceleration or of intent to
accelerate, or any other notice whatsoever, without any notice having been given
to Guarantor previous to such demand of the acceptance by Lender of this
Guaranty, and without any notice having been given to Guarantor previous to such
demand of the creating or incurring of such obligation to perform or observe the
agreement, covenant, term or condition, as the case may be, cause the full and
complete satisfaction of the Guaranteed Obligations pursuant to Section 2 hereof
and in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Loan Agreement, and it
shall not be necessary for Lender, in order to enforce such performance by
Guarantor, first to institute suit or exhaust their remedies against Borrower or
others liable for such performance, to enforce its rights against any security
which shall ever have been given to secure such performance, to join Borrower or
any others liable on the Guaranteed Obligation in any action to enforce this
Guaranty, to pursue any other remedy or enforce any other right, including any
and all rights available to them at law or in equity or to resort to any other
means of obtaining performance of the Guaranteed Obligation. Suit may be brought
or demand may be made against all parties who have signed this Guaranty, or
against any one or more of them, separately or together, without impairing the
rights of Lender against any other party hereto. At any time
Lender is entitled to exercise its remedies hereunder, Lender may in its
discretion elect to demand performance.
4. Certain Agreements and Waivers by Guarantor. Guarantor hereby agrees
that neither Lender's rights and remedies nor Guarantor's obligations under the
terms of this Guaranty shall be released, diminished, impaired, reduced or
affected by any one or more of the following:
(a) any limitation of liability or recourse in any other Loan
Document;
(b) the taking or accepting of any other security or guaranty for,
or right of recourse with respect to, any or all of the Guaranteed
Obligation;
(c) any release, surrender, exchange, subordination, deterioration,
waste, impairment or loss of, or any failure to create or perfect any lien
or security interest with respect to, any security at any time existing or
purported, believed or expected to exist in connection with any or all of
the Guaranteed Obligation;
(d) any partial release of the liability of Guarantor hereunder, or
if there is more than one person signing this Guaranty, the complete or
partial release of any one or more of them hereunder;
(e) the death, insolvency, bankruptcy, disability, dissolution,
liquidation, termination, receivership, reorganization, change of form
and/or name, structure or ownership, sale of all assets, or lack of
corporate, partnership or other power of Borrower, any of the undersigned,
or any party at any time liable for the performance of any or all of the
Guaranteed Obligation, whether now existing or hereafter occurring,
including, without limitation, the occurrence of any event which would
cause Guarantor and/or an Affiliate of Guarantor to no longer be the owner
of the Property, the Existing Projects or the Borrower under the Loan
Documents;
(f) any adjustment, indulgence, forbearance, or compromise that may
be granted or given by Lender to Borrower or Guarantor from time to time;
(g) any neglect, delay, omission, failure, or refusal of Lender to
take or prosecute any action for the collection or enforcement of any of
the Guaranteed Obligation or to foreclose or take or prosecute any action
to foreclose upon any security therefor or to take or prosecute any action
in connection with any Loan Document;
(h) any failure of Lender to notify Guarantor of any assignment of
the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof, or of any Loan Document,
or of any release of or change in any security or of any other action
taken or refrained from being taken by Lender against Borrower or any
security or other recourse or of any new agreement between Lender and
Borrower, it being understood that Lender shall not be required to give
Guarantor any notice of any kind under any circumstances with respect to
or in connection with the Guaranteed Obligation; provided, however,
nothing contained in this Guaranty shall relieve the Lender of its
obligation to provide notices to the Borrower under Section 19.6 of the
Loan Agreement;
(i) the unenforceability of all or any part of the Guaranteed
Obligation against Borrower or Guarantor, whether because the Guaranteed
Obligation exceeds the amount permitted by law or violates any usury law,
the act of creating the Guaranteed Obligation, or any part thereof, is
ultra xxxxx, the officers or persons creating same acted in excess of
their authority, Borrower or Guarantor has any valid defense, claim or
offset with respect thereto, or otherwise, it being agreed that Guarantor
shall remain liable hereon regardless of whether any other person be found
not liable on the Guaranteed Obligation, or any part thereof, for any
reason; or
(j) any payment by Borrower to Lender is held to constitute a
preference under the bankruptcy laws or if for any other reason Lender is
required to refund such payment or pay the amount thereof to someone else.
It is the intent of Guarantor and Lender that, subject to the terms,
conditions and limitations of this Guaranty, the obligations and liabilities of
Guarantor hereunder are absolute and unconditional under any and all
circumstances and that until the Guaranteed Obligation by Guarantor under this
Guaranty are fully and finally performed, such obligations and liabilities shall
not be discharged or released, in whole or in part, by any act or occurrence
which might, but for the provisions of this Guaranty, be deemed a legal or
equitable discharge or release of a guarantor, other than a payment in full of
the Loan.
5. Obligations Deferred. Any indebtedness of Borrower to Guarantor now or
hereafter existing, including, without limitation, any rights to subrogation
which Guarantor may have as a result of any payment by Guarantor under this
Agreement, together with any interest thereon, shall be, and such indebtedness
is, hereby deferred, postponed and subordinated to the prior payment in full of
the Guaranteed Obligations. Until payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations,
including interest accruing on the Note after the commencement of a proceeding
by or against Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code which interest the parties
agree shall remain a claim that is prior and superior to any claim of Guarantor
notwithstanding any contrary practice, custom or ruling in cases under the
Bankruptcy Code generally, Guarantor agrees not to accept any payment or
satisfaction of any kind of indebtedness of Borrower to Guarantor and hereby
assigns such indebtedness to Lender, including the right to file proof of claim
and to vote thereon in connection with any such proceeding under the Bankruptcy
Code, including the right to vote on any plan of reorganization.
6. Other Liability of Guarantor or Borrower. If Guarantor becomes liable
for any indebtedness owing by Borrower to the Lender, by endorsement or
otherwise, other than under this Guaranty, such liability shall not be in any
manner impaired or affected hereby, and the rights of Lender hereunder shall be
cumulative of any and all other rights that Lender may ever have against
Guarantor.
7. Successors and Assigns. This Guaranty is for the benefit of Lender and
its respective successors and assigns, and in the event of an assignment of the
Indebtedness, or any part thereof, pursuant to the terms and conditions of the
Loan Agreement, the rights and benefits hereunder may be transferred with the
Loan. After notice to Guarantor afforded to the Borrower to the extent such
notice is required under the Loan Agreement, which may be given simultaneously
with the giving of such notice to Borrower, Guarantor waives further notice of
any transfer or assignment of the Loan, or any part thereof, and agrees that
failure to give notice will not affect the liabilities of Guarantor hereunder.
8. Binding Effect. This Guaranty is binding not only on Guarantor, but on
Guarantor's respective heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns.
9. GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO ITS
CONFLICTS OF LAWS PRINCIPLES. GUARANTOR AGREES THAT ANY SUIT FOR THE ENFORCEMENT
OF THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE BROUGHT IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK OR ANY
FEDERAL COURT SITTING THEREIN AND CONSENTS TO THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF
SUCH COURT AND THE SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY SUCH SUIT BEING MADE UPON GUARANTOR
IN THE MANNER AND AT THE ADDRESS SPECIFIED FOR NOTICES IN THIS AGREEMENT.
GUARANTOR HEREBY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE
VENUE OF ANY SUCH SUIT OR ANY SUCH COURT OR THAT SUCH SUIT IS BROUGHT IN AN
INCONVENIENT COURT.
10. Invalid Provisions. If any provision of this Guaranty or the
application thereof to any person or circumstance shall, for any reason and to
any extent, be invalid or unenforceable, neither the remainder of this Guaranty
nor the application of such provision to any other person or circumstance shall
be affected thereby, but rather the same shall be enforced to the greatest
extent permitted by law.
11. Attorneys Fees and Costs of Collection. Guarantor shall pay on demand
the reasonable attorneys' fees and all other costs and expenses which may be
incurred by Lender in the enforcement of or preservation of Lender's rights
under this Guaranty, which covenant shall survive any payment or discharge in
full of the Loan and all amounts due under the Loan Agreement.
12. Payments. All sums payable under this Guaranty shall be paid in lawful
money of the United States of America which at the time of payment is legal
tender for the payment of public and -------- private debts.
13. Intentionally Deleted.
14. Notices. Subject to the last sentence of this Section, all notices,
requests, consents, demands and other communications required or which any party
desires to give hereunder (each, a "Notice") shall be in writing and shall be
deemed sufficiently given or furnished if delivered in accordance with Section
19.6 of the Loan Agreement. This Section shall not be construed in any way to
affect or impair any waiver of notice or demand provided in this Guaranty or in
any other Loan Document or to require giving of notice or demand to or upon any
person in any situation or for any reason. The addresses for Notices hereunder
shall be, in the case of Lender, its address set forth in the Building Loan
Agreement and in case of Guarantor, its address set forth opposite its signature
hereto.
15. No Election of Remedies. Unless waived in writing by Lender, upon the
occurrence and during the continuance of a default by Guarantor of the
provisions of this Guaranty, all or any one or more of the rights, powers,
privileges and other remedies available to Lender against Guarantor under this
Guaranty or any of the other Loan Documents executed and delivered by, or
applicable to, Guarantor 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 of the Indebtedness
shall be declared due and payable, and whether or not Lender shall have
commenced any foreclosure proceeding or other action for the enforcement of its
rights and remedies under any of the Loan Documents. 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 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,
Guarantor agrees that if an Event of Default is continuing (i) to the extent
permitted by law, Lender shall not be 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 remedies under the Loan Documents or the Indebtedness has
been paid in full. The granting of any consent, approval or waiver by Lender
shall be limited to the specific instance and purpose and shall not constitute
consent or approval in any other instance or for any other purpose. No notice to
nor demand on Guarantor in any case shall of itself entitle Guarantor to any
other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances, unless
otherwise required by this Guaranty or one of the other Loan Documents. No
provision of this Guaranty nor any right, remedy or recourse of Lender with
respect hereto, nor any default or breach, can be waived, nor can this Guaranty
or Guarantor be released or discharged in any way or to any extent, except in
accordance with the provisions of this Guaranty or specifically by a writing
intended for that purpose (referring specifically to this Guaranty) executed by
Lender.
16. Term of Guaranty. This Guaranty shall continue in full force and
effect until Guarantor has fully and finally performed the Guaranteed
Obligations or the Full Completion of the Project. If pursuant to any
bankruptcy, insolvency or other debtor relief law or any order or decision
thereunder Lender must rescind or restore any payment or part thereof received
by Lender in satisfaction of any amounts due under the Loan Agreement or any
part thereof, including such payment to the extent rescinded or restored, and,
to the extent of the payment rescinded or restored, any prior release or
discharge by Lender of this Guaranty or of Guarantor shall be without effect and
this Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding such release
or discharge.
17. Intentionally Deleted.
18. Gender; Titles; Construction. Within this Guaranty, words of any
gender shall be held and construed to include any other gender, and words in the
singular number shall be held and construed to include the plural, unless the
context otherwise requires. Titles appearing at the beginning of any
subdivisions hereof are for convenience only, do not constitute any part of such
subdivisions, and shall be disregarded in construing the language contained in
such subdivisions. The use of the words "herein," "hereof," "hereunder" and
other similar compounds of the word "here" shall refer to this entire Guaranty
and not to any particular section, paragraph or provision.
19. Guarantor's Financial Condition. As of the date hereof, and after
giving effect to this Guaranty and the contingent obligation evidenced hereby,
Guarantor is and will be solvent and has and will have assets which, fairly
valued, exceed its obligations, liabilities (including contingent liabilities)
and debts, fairly valued, and has and expects to have property and assets
sufficient to satisfy and repay its obligations and liabilities.
20. Guarantor's Minimum Net Worth. Guarantor has, as of the date hereof,
and shall maintain for so long as the Guaranteed Obligations remain outstanding:
a net worth, as reasonably determined by Lender, of no less than the Minimum Net
Worth. Guarantor agrees to promptly give Lender written notice if at any time,
from time to time, while this Guaranty is in effect, Guarantor's net worth
decreases below the Minimum Net Worth.
21. Intentionally Omitted.
22. Execution. This Guaranty may be executed in multiple counterparts,
each of which, for all purposes, shall be deemed an original, and all of which
together shall constitute one and the same agreement; and if the term
"Guarantor" includes more than one person, the failure of any one or more such
persons to execute a counterpart thereof shall not impair or affect the
enforceability of this Guaranty against any person who does sign this Guaranty.
23. Entire Agreement. This Guaranty embodies the entire agreement between
Lender and Guarantor with respect to the guaranty by Guarantor of the Guaranteed
Obligation and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, if any, with
respect to the guaranty by Guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligation. The loan
documents constitute the entire agreement and understanding among the parties
thereto and supersedes any and all prior agreements and understandings, oral or
written, relating to the subject matter hereof. There are no unwritten
agreements between the parties to the loan documents regarding the transactions
which are the subject of the loan documents or related matters.
24. JURY TRIAL WAIVER. GUARANTOR AND ALL PERSONS CLAIMING BY, THROUGH OR
UNDER IT, HEREBY EXPRESSLY, KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE ANY
RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION (I)
ARISING UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY PRESENT OR
FUTURE MODIFICATION THEREOF OR (II) IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR
INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF GUARANTOR OR LENDER WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT
(AS NOW OR HEREAFTER MODIFIED) OR ANY OTHER INSTRUMENT, DOCUMENT OR AGREEMENT
EXECUTED OR DELIVERED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH, OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED HERETO
OR THERETO, IN EACH CASE WHETHER SUCH CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION
IS NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT OR TORT
OR OTHERWISE; AND GUARANTOR HEREBY AGREES AND CONSENTS THAT AN ORIGINAL
COUNTERPART OR A COPY OF THIS SECTION MAY BE FILED WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN
EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT HERETO TO THE WAIVER OF ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.
GUARANTOR ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT HAS CONSULTED WITH LEGAL COUNSEL REGARDING THE
MEANING OF THIS WAIVER AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THIS WAIVER IS AN ESSENTIAL
INDUCEMENT FOR
THE MAKING OF THE LOAN. THIS WAIVER SHALL SURVIVE THE REPAYMENT OF THE LOAN.
