2.12.7       Right of Set-off. Prior to the existence of an Event of Default, Lender waives any and all rights Lender may have at law or otherwise to set off or make any claim against the Account Collateral, except, with respect to any checks returned for insufficient funds, and the payment of Lender’s fees and expenses due under this Agreement (including out-of-pocket attorney’s fees and disbursements) for the maintenance of the Account Collateral.

2.15       General Interest Provisions. In the event that any Legal Requirement, any change therein or in the interpretation or application thereof, or compliance by Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority:

(i)       does or shall hereafter subject Lender to any tax or other Imposition of any kind whatsoever (other than any Lender Taxes) with respect to any Property or the Collateral, the Loan, this Agreement, the Notes or any other Loan Document, or change the basis of taxation of payments to Lender of principal, commitment fee, deposit, interest or any other amount payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document (except for changes in the rate of any Lender Taxes) and such incremental increase is actually paid;

(ii)       does or shall hereafter impose, modify or apply any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances or loans by, or other credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of Lender;

(iii)       does or shall hereafter have the effect of reducing the rate of return on Lender’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which Lender could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration Lender’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by any amount deemed by Lender to be material; or

(iv)       does or shall hereafter impose on Lender any other condition; and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to Lender of making, renewing or maintaining loans or extensions of credit or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder,

then, in any such case, Borrowers shall promptly pay Lender upon demand any additional amounts necessary to compensate Lender for any additional tax, requirement, reduction in rate of return, Imposition, cost or expense or reduced amount receivable in respect of the Loan that results from any of the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.15. If Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.15 Lender shall, in reasonable detail, notify Borrowers in writing promptly of the event by reason of which Lender has become so entitled and the additional amount required to fully compensate Lender for such additional cost or reduced amount in respect of the Loan. Such written notice as to any additional costs or amounts payable pursuant to the foregoing sentence submitted by Lender to Borrowers (together with such reasonable detailed supporting information) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. In the event Borrowers are unable to pay such amounts, either for economic reasons or because the legal provisions or decisions creating any applicable Imposition forbid Borrowers from doing so, then the Loan will, at Lender’s option, become due and payable in full upon sixty (60) days’ notice to Borrowers, and Borrowers shall repay the Principal Indebtedness, plus all accrued and unpaid interest, together with all other amounts outstanding under the Loan Documents, in accordance with the prepayment provisions set forth in Section 2.5 hereof and in the Notes.

ARTICLE 5 COVENANTS

5.1       Affirmative Covenants. Borrowers covenant and agree that, from the date hereof and until payment in full of the Secured Obligations:

5.1.1       Intentionally Omitted.

5.1.2       Impositions and Other Claims.

A.       Impositions. Except to the extent Borrowers have deposited funds with the Lender pursuant to Section 5.1.2(B) below, Borrowers shall (i) pay, before delinquency and before the imposition of any penalty or interest, all Impositions, including without limitation any Property Impositions that may be levied or imposed at any time against any Property, the Chattels, the Intangible Personalty or the other Collateral, and (ii) within ten (10) days after each payment of any such Imposition, Borrowers shall upon request deliver to Lender an official receipt for or other written evidence such payment, provided, however, that Borrowers are not required to furnish such receipts for payment of Property Impositions in the event that such Property Impositions have been paid by Lender pursuant to Section 5.1.2(B) below. At Lender’s option, Lender may retain the services of a firm to monitor the payment of all Property Impositions relating to any Property and the Collateral, the out-of-pocket cost of which shall be borne by Borrowers.

60 

 

B.       Deposit for Taxes. On the Closing Date, for each Property, Borrowers shall deposit with Lender an amount equal to 1/12th of the amount that Lender estimates will be required to make the next annual payment of Property Impositions with respect to such Property, multiplied by the number of whole or partial months that have elapsed since the date one (1) month prior to the most recent due date for such Property Impositions. Thereafter, on each Payment Date, Borrowers shall deposit with Lender an amount equal to 1/12th of the amount that Lender estimates will be required to make the next annual payment of Property Impositions, with respect to each Property. The purpose of these provisions is to provide Lender with sufficient funds on hand for Lender or Servicer to pay all such Property Impositions thirty (30) days before the date on which such Property Impositions become past due. If Lender determines that the funds escrowed hereunder are, or will be, insufficient to pay such Property Impositions, Borrowers shall, within five (5) days following Borrowers’ receipt of written demand, pay such additional sums as Lender shall reasonably determine necessary and shall pay any increased monthly charges requested by Lender. Provided that no Event of Default exists and is continuing, Lender shall apply the amounts so deposited to the payment of such Property Impositions when due, but in no event will Lender be liable for any interest on any amount so deposited, and any amount so deposited may be held and commingled with Lender’s own funds. If an Event of Default exists, Lender may apply such funds to the payment of any Property Impositions or the payment of any Secured Obligations in such order as Lender shall elect or retain the same as collateral for the Secured Obligations, in its sole discretion.

C.       Intentionally Omitted.

D.       Right to Contest. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 5.1.2, Borrowers shall not be deemed to be in default solely by reason of Borrowers’ failure to pay any Imposition so long as, in Lender’s judgment, each of the following conditions is satisfied:

(i)       Borrowers are engaged in and diligently pursuing in good faith administrative or judicial proceedings appropriate to contest the validity or amount of such Impositions;

(ii)       Borrowers’ payment of such Imposition would materially prejudice Borrowers’ prospects for success in such proceedings or Borrower pays the Impositions under protest;

(iii)       Nonpayment of such Imposition will not result in the loss or forfeiture of any Property or other Collateral encumbered by the Loan Documents or any interest of Lender therein; and

(iv)       Borrowers (x) deposit with Lender, as security for such payment that may ultimately be required, a sum equal to the amount of the disputed Imposition plus the interest, penalties, advertising charges, and other costs that Lender reasonably estimates are likely to become payable if Borrowers’ contest is unsuccessful, or (y) post a bond with the applicable taxing authority having the same effect. For the avoidance of doubt, any funds required to be deposited with Lender under this paragraph (iv) shall be in addition to all taxes, assessments and other governmental charges that are not being contested and that are subject to the deposit provisions of Section 5.1.2(B) hereof.

61 

 

If Lender determines that any one or more of such conditions is not satisfied or is no longer satisfied, Borrowers shall pay the Imposition in question, together with any interest and penalties thereon, within ten (10) days after Lender gives notice of such determination.

E.       Mechanic’s Liens. Borrowers shall keep each Property free and clear of all Liens and claims of Liens by contractors, subcontractors, mechanics, laborers, materialmen, and other such Persons, and will cause any recorded statement of any such Lien to be released of record or bonded off, within thirty (30) days after any Borrower’s actual notice of the recording thereof. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, however, Borrowers shall not be deemed to be in default under this Section 5.1.2(E) if and so long as Borrowers (a) contest in good faith the validity or amount of any asserted Lien and diligently prosecutes or defends an action appropriate to obtain a binding determination of the disputed matter, and (b) provide Lender with such security as Lender may reasonably require to protect Lender against all loss, damage, and expense, including attorneys’ fees, that Lender might incur if the asserted Lien is determined to be valid and, as may be required, to remove or bond off any such Lien, if not bonded by Borrowers.

5.1.3       Litigation. Borrowers shall give prompt written notice to Lender of any litigation or governmental proceedings pending or threatened (in writing) against (i) any Borrower, any Guarantor, any Borrower Control Person, any Property or the other Collateral, and (ii) to the extent it could have a Material Adverse Effect, on any Borrower, any Guarantor, any Borrower Control Person, any Property or other Collateral.

5.1.4       General Indemnity.

(xiv)       any and all claims and demands whatsoever that may be asserted against Lender by reason of any alleged obligations or undertakings on its part to perform or discharge any of the terms, covenants, or agreements contained in any Lease.

B.       Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Party under this Section 5.1.4 of notice of the making of any claim or the commencement of any action, such Indemnified Party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made by such Indemnified Party against Borrowers under this Section 5.1.4, promptly notify Borrowers in writing, but the omission to so notify Borrowers shall not relieve Borrowers from any liability that Borrowers may have to any Indemnified Party under this Section 5.1.4 or otherwise unless and to the extent that Borrowers did not otherwise possess knowledge of such claim or action and such failure resulted in the forfeiture by Borrowers of substantial rights and defenses or a substantial increase in its obligations hereunder. In case any such claim is made or action is brought against any Indemnified Party and such Indemnified Party seeks or intends to seek indemnity from Borrowers, Borrowers shall be entitled to participate in, and, to the extent that Borrowers may wish, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party; and, upon receipt of notice from Borrowers to such Indemnified Party of Borrowers’ election so to assume the defense of such claim or action and only upon approval by the Indemnified Party of such counsel (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), Borrowers shall not be liable to such Indemnified Party under this Section 5.1.4 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, each Indemnified Party shall be entitled to employ counsel separate from such counsel for Borrowers and from any other party in such action if such Indemnified Party is advised by counsel in writing that a conflict of interest exists that makes representation by counsel chosen by Borrowers not advisable. In such event, but only in such event, Borrowers shall pay the reasonable fees and disbursements of such

64

No Indemnified Party shall enter into a settlement of or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any action, claim, suit or proceeding as to which an Indemnified Party would be entitled to indemnification hereunder without the prior written consent of Borrowers.

C.       Any amounts payable to an Indemnified Party by reason of the application of this Section 5.1.4 shall become due and payable ten (10) days after written demand of Lender and shall accrue interest at the Default Rate from the earlier of (i) the date that any such amount was paid by Lender, and (ii) the tenth (10th) day following the date the demand is deemed to have been sent by Lender pursuant to the terms hereof until paid, and such amounts shall constitute part of the Secured Obligations.

D.       Do and execute all and such further lawful and reasonable acts, conveyances and assurances for the better and more effective carrying out of the intents and purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, as Lender shall reasonably require from time to time.

73 

 

A.       Coverages Required. Borrowers shall maintain or cause to be maintained, with financially sound and reputable insurance companies or associations reasonably satisfactory to Lender, all insurance required under the terms of the Insurance Agreement and shall comply with each and every covenant and agreement contained in the Insurance Agreement pursuant to and in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Insurance Agreement. Borrowers shall provide Lender with reasonably satisfactory evidence of the payment of the premiums of all such insurance not later than the date that is five (5) Business Days following the date that any such payment is made.

B.       Renewal Policies. Not less than fifteen (15) days prior to the expiration date of each insurance policy required pursuant to the Insurance Agreement, Borrowers shall deliver to Lender either an appropriate renewal policy or replacement policy (or a certified copy thereof) that in each case satisfies the requirements of the Insurance Agreement, together with evidence satisfactory to Lender that the applicable premium has been prepaid.

C.       Deposit for Premiums. On the Closing Date, for each Property, Borrowers shall deposit with Lender an amount equal to 1/12th of the amount that Lender estimates will be required to make the next annual payments of the premiums for the policies of insurance required by the terms of this Section 5.1.16, multiplied by the number of whole and partial months which have elapsed since the date one (1) month prior to the most recent policy anniversary date for each such policy. On each Payment Date thereafter, Borrowers shall deposit an amount equal to 1/12th of the amount that Lender estimates will be required to pay the next required annual premium for each insurance policy referred to in this Section. The purpose of these provisions is to provide Lender or Servicer with sufficient funds on hand to pay all such premiums thirty (30) days prior to the date on which such premiums become past due. If Lender, in Lender’s reasonable discretion, determines that the funds deposited with Lender hereunder are, or will be, insufficient to pay such premiums, then Borrowers shall, within five (5) days following Borrowers’ receipt of written demand, pay such additional sums as Lender shall determine necessary to pay such premiums and shall pay any increased monthly charges as so requested by Lender. Provided that no Event of Default exists and is then continuing, Lender shall apply the amounts so deposited to the payment of such insurance premiums when due, but in no event will Lender be liable for any interest on any amounts so deposited, and any amount so received may be held and commingled with Lender’s own funds. If an Event of Default exists, Lender may apply such funds to the payment of such insurance premiums or the payment of any Secured Obligations in such order as Lender shall elect or retain the same as collateral for the Secured Obligations, in its sole discretion.

74 

 

D.       Application of Hazard Insurance Proceeds. Borrowers shall, promptly after learning thereof, notify Lender in writing of any damage or casualty to all or any portion of the Property, Chattels or other Collateral. Lender may participate in all negotiations and appear and participate in all judicial or arbitration proceedings concerning any insurance proceeds that may be payable as a result of such casualty or damage, and may, in Lender’s sole discretion, compromise or settle, in the names of Borrowers and Lender, any claim for any such insurance proceeds. Whether or not Lender is involved in any such negotiation or settlement, any such compromise or settlement shall be subject to the prior written consent of Lender, which may be granted or withheld in Lender’s discretion. Any such insurance proceeds shall be paid directly to Lender and shall be applied first to reimburse Lender for all costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by Lender in connection with the ascertainment and collection of such insurance proceeds. The balance, if any, of any insurance proceeds received by Lender with respect to an insured damage or casualty shall be, in Lender’s sole discretion, either (i) retained and applied, without prepayment penalty or fee as set forth in Section 5(c) of the Notes, by Lender toward payment of the Secured Obligations, in such order and manner as Lender deems appropriate, or (ii) paid over, in whole or in part and subject to such conditions as Lender may impose, to Borrowers to pay for repairs or replacements necessitated by the damage or casualty. In the event that all of the Secured Obligations have been performed or are discharged by the application of less than all of such insurance proceeds, then, any remaining proceeds shall be paid over to Borrowers. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.1.16(D), Lender shall pay over to Borrowers any such insurance proceeds as provided in clause (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence, provided that, the following conditions have been satisfied: (a) there does not exist any Default or Event of Default, (b) Borrowers demonstrate to the reasonable satisfaction of Lender that Borrowers have the financial ability to pay all principal and interest and any other amounts required to be paid under this Agreement and the Notes and perform all of the other Secured Obligations during the restoration of the applicable Property from Gross Revenue (including, without limitation, proceeds of rent loss or business interruption insurance) or otherwise, (c) the damage or casualty occurs prior to the date that is six (6) months prior to the Maturity Date and the restoration is capable of being completed prior to the Maturity Date, (d) all insurance proceeds and other funds provided by Borrowers for such restoration are released under reserve and construction funding arrangements reasonably satisfactory to Lender, (e) the repair or restoration will return the Property to substantially the same size, design and utility as existed immediately prior to the damage or casualty, (f) in the event the proceeds of insurance are insufficient to pay for the restoration (as reasonably determined by Lender), Borrowers shall, prior to the commencement of any restoration work, deposit with Lender not later than the date that is fifteen (15) days following the date that the proceeds of insurance are received by Lender, such additional funds as are necessary to complete the restoration as reasonably determined by Lender; (g) Borrowers undertake and covenant and agree (in writing) with Lender with Lender to fund any and all deficiencies, and in fact actually fund any and all such deficiencies, not later than the date that is fifteen (15) days following the date that Borrowers receive written notification from Lender of such deficiency and prior to the distribution of any further portion of the insurance proceeds, such that at all times the funds held by Lender and remaining to be disbursed for purposes of the restoration shall be sufficient to complete the restoration, (h) the annual Gross Revenue that will survive the restoration or repair of the applicable Property produces a Debt Service Coverage Ratio of not less than 1.20 to 1.0 and Borrowers demonstrate to Lender’s satisfaction that

75 

 

Borrowers shall be able to attain a Debt Service Coverage Ratio of at least 1.20 to 1.0 from Gross Revenue within six (6) months following completion of the restoration, and (i) if any site plan amendment, variance, special use permit or other similar special approval or consent is required from any government authority or any other Person for such repair or restoration, Borrowers shall obtain and deliver to Lender such site plan amendment, variance, special use permit or other similar special approval or consent not later than the date that is one hundred eighty (180) days following the date of such casualty or damage (provided, however, that such one hundred eighty (180) day time period shall in all respects be subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.1.16(D) and shall not extend or otherwise modify any time periods in such foregoing provisions). If the applicable Mortgages have been foreclosed prior to Lender’s receipt of such insurance proceeds, Lender may nonetheless retain such insurance proceeds to the extent required to reimburse Lender for all expenses, including out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees, incurred in connection therewith, and to discharge any deficiency remaining with respect to the Secured Obligations.

E.       Application of Hazard Insurance Proceeds Under Threshold Amount. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of Section 5.1.16(D) hereof, in the event that the insurance proceeds from the applicable casualty do not exceed the greater of (x) $200,000.00 and (y) five percent (5%) of the Allocated Loan Amount per Property (the “Threshold Amount”), then such insurance proceeds received by Borrowers with respect to the applicable damage or casualty shall be paid over, in whole or in part and subject to such conditions as Lender may reasonably impose, to Borrowers to pay for repairs or replacements necessitated by the damage or casualty (provided, however, that if all of the Secured Obligations have been performed or are discharged by the application of less than all of such insurance proceeds, then any remaining proceeds will be paid over to Borrowers) if (i) no Default or Event of Default then exists, and (ii) the proceeds received by Lender (together with any other funds delivered by Borrowers to Lender for such purpose) shall be sufficient, in Lender’s reasonable judgment, to pay for any restoration necessitated by the casualty, and (iii) the cost of such restoration shall not exceed the Threshold Amount, and (iv) the damage or casualty occurs prior to the date that is six (6) months’ prior to the Maturity Date and the restoration is capable of being completed, in Lender’s judgment, at least ninety (90) days prior to the Maturity Date, and (v) Borrowers shall undertake and complete the repair or restoration of the applicable Property so as to return such Property to substantially the same size, design and utility as existed immediately prior to the damage or casualty and shall fund any deficiency in the event such insurance proceeds are insufficient to complete such repair or restoration.

F.       Deposit and Proper Application of Insurance Proceeds. Lender will have no obligation to see to the proper application of any insurance proceeds paid over to Borrowers, nor will any such proceeds received by Lender bear interest or be subject to any other charge for the benefit of Borrowers. If such insurance proceeds are deposited with Lender, Lender may, prior to the application of such insurance proceeds, commingle such insurance proceeds with Lender’s own funds and otherwise act with regard to such insurance proceeds as Lender may determine in Lender’s sole discretion.

76 

 

G.       Successor’s Rights. Any Person that acquires title to any Property, the Chattels, the Intangible Personalty or the other Collateral upon foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure hereunder will succeed to all of Borrowers’ rights under all policies of insurance maintained pursuant to this Section 5.1.16 with regard to such Property.

5.1.17       Eminent Domain; Private Damage.

A.       Application of Condemnation Award. If all or any part of any Property is taken or damaged by eminent domain or any other public or private action, Borrowers shall promptly, following actual notice thereof, provide Lender with written notice of the time and place of all meetings, hearings, trials, and other proceedings relating to such action. Lender may participate in all negotiations and appear and participate in all judicial or arbitration proceedings concerning any award or payment that may be due as a result of such taking or damage, and may, in Lender’s sole discretion, compromise or settle, in the names of both Borrowers and Lender, any claim for any such award or payment. Whether or not Lender is involved in such negotiation or settlement, such compromise or settlement shall be subject to the prior written consent of Lender, which may be granted or withheld in Lender’s discretion. Any such award or payment shall be paid directly to Lender and shall be applied first to reimburse Lender for all costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by Lender in connection with the ascertainment and collection of such award or payment. The balance, if any, of such award or payment received by Lender with respect to a condemnation shall be, in Lender’s sole discretion, either (i) retained and applied, without prepayment penalty or fee as set forth in Section 5(c) of the Notes, by Lender toward payment of the Secured Obligations, in such order and manner as Lender deems appropriate, or (ii) paid over, in whole or in part and subject to such conditions as Lender may impose, to Borrowers for the purpose of restoring, repairing, or rebuilding any part of the Property affected by the taking or damage. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.1.17(A), Lender shall pay over to Borrowers any such award or payment as provided in clause (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence, provided that the following conditions have been satisfied: (a) there does not exist any Default or Event of Default, (b) Borrowers demonstrate to the reasonable satisfaction of Lender that Borrowers have the financial ability to pay all principal and interest and any other amounts required to be paid under this Agreement and the Notes and perform all of the other Secured Obligations during the restoration of the applicable Property from Gross Revenue (including, without limitation, the proceeds of rent loss or business interruption insurance) or otherwise, (c) the damage occurs prior to the date that is six (6) months prior to the Maturity Date and the restoration is capable of being completed prior to the Maturity Date, (d) any condemnation award and other funds provided by Borrowers for such restoration are released under reserve and construction funding arrangements reasonably satisfactory to Lender, (e) the repair or restoration will return the applicable Property to substantially the same size, design and utility as existed immediately prior to the damage, (f) in the event the condemnation award is insufficient to pay for the restoration (as reasonably determined by Lender), Borrowers shall, prior to the commencement of any restoration work, deposit with Lender not later than the date that is fifteen (15) days following the date that the condemnation award is received by Lender, such additional funds as are necessary to complete the restoration as reasonably determined by Lender; (g) Borrowers undertake, covenant and agree (in writing) with Lender to fund any and all deficiencies, and in fact actually fund any and all such deficiencies, not later than the date that is fifteen (15) days

following the date that Borrowers receive written notification from Lender of such deficiency and prior to the distribution of any further portion of the condemnation award, such that at all times the funds held by Lender and remaining to be disbursed for purposes of the restoration shall be sufficient to complete the restoration, (h) the annual Gross Revenue that will survive the restoration or repair of the applicable Property produces a Debt Service Coverage Ratio of not less than 1.20 to 1.0 and Borrowers demonstrate to Lender’s satisfaction that Borrowers shall be able to attain a Debt Service Coverage Ratio of at least 1.20 to 1.0 from Gross Revenue within six (6) months after completion of the restoration, and (i) if any site plan amendment, variance, special use permit or other similar special approval or consent is required from any government authority or any other Person for such repair or restoration, Borrowers shall obtain and deliver to Lender such site plan amendment, variance, special use permit or other similar special approval or consent not later than the date that is one hundred eighty (180) days following the date of such taking or condemnation (provided, however, that such one hundred eighty (180) day time period shall in all respects be subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.1.17 and shall not extend or otherwise modify any time periods in such foregoing provisions). If the applicable Mortgages have been foreclosed prior to Lender’s receipt of such award or payment, Lender may nonetheless retain such award or payment to the extent required to reimburse Lender for all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred in connection therewith, and to discharge any deficiency remaining with respect to the Secured Obligations.

B.       Application of Condemnation Award Under Threshold Amount Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of Section 5.1.17(A) hereof, in the event that the award or payment does not exceed the Threshold Amount, then such award or payment received by Borrowers with respect to the applicable condemnation shall be paid over, in whole or in part and subject to such conditions as Lender may reasonably impose, to Borrowers for the purpose of restoring, repairing or rebuilding any part of the applicable Property affected by the taking or damage (provided, however, that if all of the Secured Obligations have been performed or are discharged by the application of less than all of such award or payments, then any remaining award or payments will be paid over to Borrowers) if (i) no Default or Event of Default then exists, and (ii) the award or payment received by Lender (together with any other funds delivered by Borrowers to Lender for such purpose) shall be sufficient, in Lender’s reasonable judgment, to pay for any restoration, repair or rebuilding necessitated by the condemnation, and (iii) the cost of such restoration, repair or rebuilding shall not exceed the Threshold Amount, and (iv) the condemnation occurs prior to the date that is six (6) months prior to the Maturity Date and the restoration, repair or rebuilding is capable of being completed, in Lender’s judgment, at least ninety (90) days prior to the Maturity Date, and (v) Borrowers shall undertake and complete the restoration, repair or rebuilding of any Property so as to return the applicable Property to substantially the same size, design and utility as existed immediately prior to the condemnation and shall fund any deficiency in the event such award is insufficient to complete such repair or restoration.

C.       Deposit and Proper Application of Condemnation Award. Lender will have no obligation to see to the proper application of any condemnation award paid over to Borrowers nor will any such condemnation award received by Lender bear interest or be subject to any other charge for the benefit of Borrowers. If such condemnation award is deposited with Lender, Lender may, prior to the application of such condemnation award, commingle such condemnation award with Lender’s own funds and otherwise act with regard to such award as Lender may determine in Lender’s sole discretion.

78 

 

5.1.18       Leases.

A.       Without Lender’s prior written consent, which may be granted or withheld in Lender’s sole discretion, Borrowers shall not enter into or modify, amend, supplement, terminate or cancel any Lease of all or any part of any Property. Any submission by Borrowers for Lender’s consent to a Lease or modification, amendment, supplement, termination or cancellation thereof shall be accompanied by a copy of such Lease (together with a comparison of such Lease against the Lease Form for the applicable Property, showing all proposed modifications to the Lease Form) or modification, amendment, supplement, termination or cancellation, a then-current Rent Roll for the applicable Property, year-to-date and prior year operating statements for the applicable Property and a cover letter requesting Lender’s consent that contains a signature line on which Lender may evidence Lender’s consent to such Lease or modification, amendment, supplement, termination or cancellation (collectively, the “Lease Approval Deliveries”). Each Lease, and each modification, amendment, supplement, termination or cancellation of any Lease, shall be in writing.

B.       Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.1.18, Borrowers shall have the right to enter into “Safe-Harbor Leases” (as hereinafter defined) without Lender’s prior written consent. A “Safe-Harbor Lease” shall mean any proposed market Lease that meets the following criteria: (i) such Lease provides for base rent in an amount that is greater than or equal to the base rent being paid for the space to be demised under such proposed Lease as of the date hereof, (ii) the rentable area to be demised pursuant to such proposed Lease which, when combined with any other space in the Property leased to Affiliates of the tenant under such proposed Lease, is less than 25,000 square feet, (iii) such proposed Lease shall be for a term of no less than three (3) years and no greater than fifteen (15) years, including any tenants extension options (other than one-year renewals), (iv) such Lease does not contain any options to purchase, rights of first refusal, rights of first offer, or other rights to acquire, the space demised pursuant to such Lease or all or any other portion of the applicable Property or interest therein, (v) such Lease does not contain any material restrictions on the landlord’s rights to lease any remaining portion of the Property not covered by such Lease, (vi) such Lease does not contain any extraordinary, uncustomary and unduly burdensome landlord obligations (including, without limitation, obligations that a landlord unaffiliated with Borrowers would have difficulty performing), (vii) such Lease is entered into on the standard form of Lease approved in writing by Lender, without material modification thereto and with such changes only as are necessitated by the business terms satisfying the requirements of this definition of “Safe-Harbor Lease” and other non-material changes that are commercially reasonable, and provided that such Lease conforms with the leasing guidelines and lease provisions hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (viii) such Lease is entered into on arms-length terms with Persons that are not Affiliates of Borrowers, Guarantors or any other Borrowers Control Person, (ix) such Lease does not require the consent of the Permitted Mezzanine Lender under the Mezzanine Loan Documents, and (x) not later than the date that is ten (10) days following the execution of such Lease or a modification or amendment of a Safe-Harbor Lease, Borrowers shall provide Lender with a certified copy of such Lease or such modification or amendment of such Safe-Harbor Lease, together with (a) all other items required to be submitted with any Lease as Lease Approval Deliveries, and (b) a certificate from Borrowers certifying to Lender that the Lease (or, if applicable, such Lease together with such modification or amendment) is a Safe-Harbor Lease and that the Lease (or, if applicable, such Lease together with such modification or amendment) satisfies the requirements set forth herein to qualify as a Safe-Harbor Lease. For the avoidance of doubt, Borrowers may (without the prior written consent of Lender) enter into any modification or amendment of any Safe-Harbor Leases so long as such Safe-Harbor Lease shall remain a “Safe-Harbor Lease” following such modification or amendment.

79 

 

C.       For any proposed Lease that does not qualify as a Safe Harbor Lease, for which Borrower is required to obtain Lender’s consent thereto, Borrowers shall be permitted to submit to Lender, for purposes of obtaining Lender’s consent to any proposed Lease under this Section 5.1.18(C), either (i) a Lease Summary Term Sheet, as well as any deviations from the standard form of Lease approved by Lender or (ii) a comparison of such Lease against the standard form of Lease approved in writing by Lender showing all proposed modifications to the standard form of Lease approved in writing by Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.1.18(C), Lender’s consent under this Section 5.1.18(C) shall be contingent on the applicable tenant under any proposed Lease signing the Lease Form. If (a) Lender fails to respond to such written request for consent of a proposed Lease on or prior to the date that is five (5) Business Days following the date that Lender receives (x) such request therefor, and (y) with any additional information that Lender may reasonably require to evaluate such proposed Lease (such date, the “First Notice Request Date”), and (b) Borrowers have provided Lender a second written request after five (5) Business Days following Lender’s receipt of the First Notice Request Date (the “Second Notice Request Date”), each such notice containing a legend clearly marked in not less than fourteen (14) point bold face type, underlined, in all caps letters stating “LENDER SHALL BE DEEMED TO HAVE CONSENTED TO THE LEASE INCLUDED HEREIN IF LENDER FAILS TO RESPOND TO THIS REQUEST FOR CONSENT ON OR PRIOR TO THE DATE THAT IS FIVE (5) BUSINESS DAYS FOLLOWING THE DATE HEREOF,” then Lender shall be deemed to have consented to such proposed Lease if Lender fails to respond to the request for consent by the date that is five (5) Business Days from the Second Notice Request Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the foregoing described deemed approval shall not apply to any Lease to any Person that is an Affiliate of any Borrower, Guarantors or Property Manager.

D.       Termination Fees.

(i)       Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, whether or not Lender’s consent to the cancellation, termination or surrender of any Lease is required hereunder (a) Borrowers shall notify Lender in writing of any cancellation penalties, termination fees or other consideration payable to Borrowers in connection with any cancellation, termination or surrender of any Lease (any such penalties or fees are referred to herein as “Termination Fees”), which written notice shall be delivered to Lender not later than the date that is five (5) Business Days following the date that Borrowers has received notice from the applicable tenant under such Lease of the intention of such tenant to cancel, terminate or surrender such Lease, but in any event prior to the payment by the applicable tenant under such Lease of any such Termination Fees to Borrowers and (b) Lender may, but shall not be required to, (1) require that Borrowers deposit such Termination Fees into a reserve held by Lender or Servicer pursuant to a reserve agreement, which agreement shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender, and (2) impose such restrictions and conditions on the timing and amount of disbursements of the Termination Fees from such reserve account as Lender may reasonably require, including, without limitation (x) requiring that (I) the space left vacant as a result of such cancellation, termination or surrender be relet to a tenant and under a Lease reasonably acceptable to Lender (any such Lease an “Approved Lease”), (II) the tenant under such Approved Lease is in occupancy of the portion of the Property demised pursuant to such Approved Lease and is paying rent in accordance with such Approved Lease, (III) Borrowers

80

(ii)       Subject to Section 5.1.18(D)(iii), (i) in the event that following the date that any such Termination Fee is paid, as of the date of determination, the Portfolio Debt Service Coverage Ratio is less than 1.0 to 1.0, then Lender may apply an amount equal to the excess of (x) any Termination Fees over (y) the amount of such Termination Fees disbursed to Borrowers pursuant to Section 5.1.18(D)(i) above (any such excess amount the “Excess Termination Fees”) to any regularly scheduled payment due and payable by Borrowers under the Notes, the Mortgages or the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, any monthly payment of principal and/or interest and any regularly scheduled reserve deposits) in such order and in such manner as determined by Lender; or (ii) following the date that any such Termination Fee is paid, as of the date of determination, (x) the Portfolio Debt Service Coverage Ratio equals or exceeds 1.0 to 1.0, and (y) at least ninety percent (90%) of the rentable square feet of space available at the Properties (but excluding any Released Property released pursuant to the Partial Release Agreement and the 11540 Mosteller Property until such time as the Future Advance has been funded) occupied by Leases consented to (or deemed consented to) by Lender pursuant to Section 5.1.18(C) and/or or Safe-Harbor Leases, then Lender shall disburse any Excess Termination Fees to Borrowers.

(iii)       If any Event of Default exists, Lender may apply any Termination Fees to the Secured Obligations in such order and in such manner as determined by Lender in Lender’s sole discretion.

E.       With respect to each Lease, Borrowers:

(i)       Shall timely pay and perform each of the obligations of Borrowers under or in connection with the Leases and shall otherwise pay such sums and take such action as shall be necessary or required in order to maintain such Lease in full force and effect in accordance with its terms;

(ii)       shall neither do, nor neglect to do, anything that may cause or permit the termination of such Lease, or cause or permit the withholding or abatement of any rent payable under any such Lease;

81 

 

(iv)       shall promptly (but not later than five (5) Business Days following receipt thereof) send copies to Lender of all material written notices that Borrowers shall send or receive under any Lease, including, without limitation, of (a) any notices given to any Borrower by the tenant under any Lease (1) alleging the default by any Borrower in the timely payment or performance of its obligations under such Lease, (2) purporting to terminate or cancel such Lease prior to its stated expiration date, or (3) requiring or demanding the expenditure of any sum by any Borrower (or demanding the taking of any action by such Borrower), and (b) any subsequent communications related thereto; and Borrowers agree that Lender, in Lender’s sole discretion during the continuance of a Default or an Event of Default may advance any sum or take any action that Lender reasonably believes is necessary or required to maintain the Leases in full force and effect, and all such sums advanced by Lender, together with all costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with action taken by Lender pursuant to this Section, shall be due and payable by Borrowers to Lender not later than the date that is five (5) days following the date of demand thereof, shall bear interest from the date such sums are advanced by Lender until paid at the Default Rate, and shall be secured by the Mortgages;

(v)       shall enforce all of the terms, covenants and conditions contained in the Lease upon the part of the lessee or any other party that is not Borrowers thereunder to be observed or performed and shall not effect a termination or diminution of the obligations of tenants under Lease;

(vi)       shall not collect any rent under any Lease more than one (1) month in advance (other than security deposits);

(vii)       shall not execute any other assignment of Borrowers’ interest in the Leases or Gross Revenue of each Property, except pursuant to the Security Documents;

(viii)       shall not alter, modify or change the terms of any guaranty of the Leases or cancel or terminate such guaranty without the prior written consent of Lender; and

(ix)       shall not consent to any assignment of or subletting under the Lease not in accordance with their terms, without the prior written consent of Lender.

F.       Borrowers shall deposit security deposits of tenants under Leases that are turned over to or for the benefit of Borrowers or otherwise collected by or on behalf of Borrowers, into an Eligible Account and in compliance with applicable Legal Requirements and shall not commingle such funds with any other funds of Borrowers. Any bond or other instrument that Borrowers are permitted to hold in lieu of cash security deposits under any applicable Legal Requirements shall be maintained in full force and effect unless replaced by cash deposits as hereinabove described, shall, if permitted pursuant to all applicable Legal Requirements, name Lender as payee or mortgagee thereunder (or at Lender’s option, be fully assignable to Lender) and shall, in all respects, comply with any applicable Legal Requirements and otherwise be reasonably satisfactory to Lender. Borrowers shall, upon request, provide Lender with evidence reasonably satisfactory to Lender of Borrowers’ compliance with the foregoing. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Borrowers shall, upon Lender’s written request, if permitted by any applicable Legal Requirements, turn over to Lender the security deposits (and, if required to be paid to any tenant pursuant to its Lease or applicable Legal Requirements, any interest theretofore earned thereon and not previously disbursed to such tenant) then held with respect to all or any portion of any Property, to be held by Lender subject to the terms of the Leases.

82 

 

G.       Lender will not be obligated to enter into any subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement (or similar agreement) with any tenant under any Lease for which any Borrower is requesting Lender’s consent until such time as an executed Lease that complies with the provisions of this Agreement is delivered to Lender.

5.1.19       Preservation of Existence and Property, Scope of Business, Compliance with Law, Non-Foreign Status.

(i)       Except as otherwise permitted pursuant to Article 7 hereof, Borrowers shall maintain or shall cause to be maintained the ownership and organizational structure reflected on Exhibit A attached hereto at all times while the Secured Obligations are outstanding.

(ii)       Borrowers shall comply with all Legal Requirements, including, without limitation, all applicable laws, rules, regulations and orders and other governmental or quasi-governmental requirements and private covenants, such compliance to include, without limitation, maintaining all Permits and paying before the same become delinquent all taxes, assessments and governmental charges imposed upon any Borrower or any Property.

(iii)       Borrowers shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve, renew and keep in full force and effect the existence of each Borrower Control Person as a limited liability company, corporation or other entity, as may be applicable, and to maintain the authorization of each Borrower Control Person to perform its obligations under the Loan Documents.

(iv)       Borrowers shall not amend or modify, or permit any other Borrower Control Person to amend or modify, the Organizational Documents of any Borrower or any Borrower Control Person so as to contravene any of the Loan Documents or to prevent the observance of the obligations under the Loan Documents.

Borrowers shall, promptly after receiving notice thereof, notify Lender in writing of any litigation, action, proceeding or investigation against Borrowers (or any of them) or any Borrower Control Person or any Property before any court, governmental or quasi-governmental arbitrator or other authority and, upon reasonable request of Lender, from time to time provide Lender with status or other information in respect thereof.

5.1.20       Right to Contest. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no Borrower shall be deemed to be in Default solely by reason of such Borrower’s failure to comply with any Legal Requirement so long as, in such Borrower’s judgment, each of the following conditions is satisfied:

A.       Such Borrower is engaged in and diligently pursuing in good faith administrative or judicial proceedings appropriate to contest the validity or applicability of such Legal Requirement; and

B.       Noncompliance with any Legal Requirement will not result in the loss, forfeiture or encumbrance of any property encumbered hereby or any interest of Lender therein or result in any fines or other punitive actions or any loss or impairment of insurance coverage; and

C.       Such Borrower deposits with Lender, as security for any payment or performance that may ultimately be required, an amount equal to the amount of any fine, assessment or charge plus the interest, penalties, and other costs that Lender reasonably estimates are likely to become payable if such Borrower’s contest is unsuccessful.

D.       If Lender determines that any one or more of such conditions is not satisfied or is no longer satisfied, then such Borrower shall comply with the any Legal Requirement in question, not later than the date that is five (5) days following the date that Lender provides written notice to such Borrower of such determination.

5.1.21       Economic Sanctions, Anti-Money Laundering, Etc.

Each Borrower represents, warrants and covenants to, and agrees with, Lender that:

A.       No Borrower, Guarantor, or any officer or director of any Borrower or any Guarantor, is or shall become a Prohibited Person or is or shall become directly or indirectly owned or controlled by any Prohibited Person;

D.       Borrowers shall promptly deliver to Lender any certification or other evidence reasonably requested from time to time by Borrowers confirming Borrowers’ compliance with this Section 5.1.21. The representations, warranties and covenants set forth in this Section 5.1.21 shall be deemed repeated and reaffirmed by Borrowers as of each date that Borrowers make a payment to Lender under the Notes, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or receives any payment from Lender. Borrowers shall promptly notify Lender in writing should Borrowers become aware of any change in the information set forth in these representations, warranties, covenants and agreements.

E.       At all times until the full satisfaction of the Secured Obligations, (i) none of the funds or other assets of any of any Borrower, any Guarantor, any Borrower Control Person or any Person that directly or indirectly Controls any Guarantor (other than any Guarantor that is an individual) shall constitute property of, shall be beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by any Person subject to trade restrictions under U.S. law, including, but not limited to, the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, 50 U.S.C. §§ 1701 et. seq., The Trading with the Enemy Act, 50 U.S.C. App. 1 et seq., and any Executive Orders or regulations promulgated thereunder or any other laws, regulations or executive orders administered by the Office of Foreign Assets Control with the result that an investment in Borrower (whether directly or indirectly) is prohibited by law or the Loan made by Lender is in violation of law (an “Embargoed Person”), (ii) no Embargoed Person shall have any direct or indirect interest of any nature whatsoever in any Borrower with the result that such investment in such Borrower (whether direct or indirect) is prohibited by law or that any of the transactions contemplated under the Loan Documents are in violation of any law, and (iii) none of the funds of any of any Borrower, any Guarantor, any Borrower Control Person or any Person that directly or indirectly Controls any Guarantor (other than any Guarantor that is an individual) shall be derived from any unlawful activity with the result that the investment in any Borrower (whether directly or indirectly) is prohibited by law or that any of the transactions contemplated under the Loan Documents are in violation of any law.

F.       Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any direct or indirect constituent of any Borrower or any Guarantor that is not a U.S. Person, such non-U.S. Person shall not be required to comply with any of the provisions in this Section if doing so would constitute a violation of the domiciliary law applicable to such non-U.S. Person; provided, however, that if such non-U.S. Person is not required to comply with the provisions of this Section, Borrowers shall deliver written notice to Lender, which written notice shall include, among other things, (x) the identity of such non-U.S. Person, (y) the justification for such non-U.S. Person’s non-compliance and (z) such other written evidence reasonably required by Lender confirming the same.

85 

 

5.1.22       Guarantors.

A.       Death of Individual Guarantor. Within thirty (30) days after the death or declaration of legal incompetence of any Guarantor that is an individual, Borrowers shall notify Lender in writing of such death or legal incompetence, and provide to Lender the names, current financial statements, reports and tax returns (in form and substance as required pursuant to Section 5.1.12 hereof and Section 13 of the Non- Recourse Carveout Guaranty) of one or more proposed Qualified Replacement Guarantors, whose financial statements, reports and tax returns demonstrate that the Net Worth and Available Liquidity and financial condition are satisfactory to qualify such proposed Qualified Replacement Guarantors to be Qualified Replacement Guarantors. Once a Qualified Replacement Guarantor has been approved by Lender and has executed a guaranty agreement (in substantially the same form as the Non-Recourse Carveout Guaranty) and environmental indemnity agreement (in substantially the same form as the Environmental Indemnity Agreement) and such other instruments as Lender may reasonably require in connection with such replacement then the estate of the deceased or legally incompetent Guarantor shall be released from all liability under the Loan and the Loan Documents and such Qualified Replacement Guarantor(s) shall cover and assume, without limitation, all liabilities and obligations of the deceased or legally incompetent Guarantor that occurred prior to the execution of such replacement guaranty agreement and environmental indemnity agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the above provision shall not apply in the case of the death or declaration of legal incompetence of an Individual Guarantor, unless the Net Worth and/or Available Liquidity of such Individual Guarantor are required, in the aggregate, with other Guarantors in order to satisfy the Guarantor Minimum Net Worth and/or Guarantor Minimum Available Liquidity, in which case, such Individual Guarantor shall be replaced in accordance with the terms of this Section 5.1.22(A).

B.       Dissolution of Entity Guarantor.

Within thirty (30) days after the dissolution of such Guarantor, each substitute guarantor(s) shall (x) deliver to Lender an executed a guaranty agreement (in substantially the same form as the Guaranty Agreement) and environmental indemnity agreement (in substantially the same form as the Environmental Indemnity Agreement) and (y) such other instruments as Lender may reasonably require in connection with such replacement, and provided that such Qualified Replacement Guarantor(s) shall cover and assume, without limitation, all liabilities and obligations of the dissolved Guarantor that occurred prior to the execution of such replacement guaranty agreement and environmental indemnity agreement.

86 

 

C.       If at any time prior to the payment in full of the Secured Obligations, the then-Guarantor(s) collectively fail to satisfy the Guarantor Minimum Net Worth Requirement and Guarantor Minimum Available Liquidity Requirement, such failure may be cured by replacing any or all of the Guarantor(s) with one or more Persons that (i) qualify as Qualified Replacement Guarantors, and (ii) execute and deliver to Lender (x) a guaranty agreement and environmental indemnity agreement in substantially the same form as the Non- Recourse Carveout Guaranty and the Environmental Indemnity Agreement and (y) such other instruments as Lender may reasonably require in connection with such substitution.

5.1.23       Minimum Net Worth and Liquidity of Guarantors. At all times until repayment in full of the Secured Obligations, Borrower shall cause the then-Guarantor(s) to satisfy the Guarantor Minimum Net Worth Requirement and Guarantor Minimum Available Liquidity Requirement.

5.1.24       Other Encumbrances. Borrowers shall perform and comply with all covenants, conditions and prohibitions required of any Borrower in connection with any Property Record Agreement and any other encumbrance affecting any Property or any of the Chattels, the Intangible Personalty or the other Collateral, or any part thereof, or any interest therein, regardless of whether such other encumbrance is superior or subordinate to the Lien hereof.

5.1.25       Maintenance and Repair of Property and Chattels; Contracts.

A.       Borrowers shall at all times maintain the Properties and the Chattels in good condition and repair, shall diligently prosecute the completion of any building or other improvement that is at any time in the process of construction on the Properties, and shall keep each Property in good repair, working order and condition, except for reasonable wear and use (and except for casualty losses as to which other provisions hereof shall govern), and from time to time make, or cause to be made, all reasonably necessary repairs, renewals, replacements, betterments and improvements thereto. Borrowers shall promptly repair, restore, replace, or rebuild any part of the Properties or the Chattels that may be affected by any casualty or any public or private taking or injury to the Properties or the Chattels, so long as Lender releases insurance or condemnation proceeds in accordance and subject to the other provisions of this Agreement. All costs and expenses arising out of the foregoing shall be paid by Borrowers whether or not the proceeds of any insurance or eminent domain shall be sufficient therefor. Borrowers shall maintain access to and egress from each Property by public streets. Borrowers shall comply with (or cause compliance with) all Legal Requirements relating to the ownership, construction, maintenance, use, or operation of the Properties, including but not limited to, any zoning requirements, any environmental or ecological requirements, any requirements pursuant to and in accordance with any Property Record Agreements and any requirements regarding access for persons with disabilities. Borrowers shall maintain all public utility services (including, without limitation, water supply, storm and sanitary sewer facilities, and natural gas, electric, telephone, cable television and high speed Internet access facilities, as applicable) necessary for the operation and maintenance of the Properties (including, without limitation, improvements constituting part of any Property) for its intended purposes, and, without limiting such maintenance requirement, shall maintain such services at the boundaries of the Land. Borrowers shall comply with (or cause compliance with) all requirements of any insurance company or inspection or rating bureau in respect of the Properties, including, without limitation, any requirements for the continuation of any insurance coverage or the continuation thereof at premium rates.

B.       Borrowers shall timely pay and perform each of the obligations of Borrowers under or in connection with the Contracts (except those being disputed in good faith).

(vii)       Such proposed Permitted Transfer does not subject Lender or any of its Affiliates to any civil or criminal penalties in any jurisdiction or otherwise constitute an unlawful act, offense or crime by Lender or any of its Affiliates, including, without limitation, under any of the laws, regulations and executive orders described in Section 5.1.21 hereof.

2.       Each Property shall be managed by pursuant to a Property Management Agreement delivered to, and approved by, Lender, and with a Property Manager consented to by Lender, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and otherwise in accordance with Section 5.1.11 hereof.

This Agreement and all covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made herein and in the certificates delivered pursuant hereto shall survive execution and delivery of this Agreement, the making by Lender of the Loan hereunder and the execution and delivery by Borrowers to Lender of the Loan Documents, and shall continue in full force and effect so long as any portion of the Secured Obligations is outstanding and unpaid (provided that the provisions of Section 5.1.4 hereof shall survive the satisfaction and payment of the Secured Obligations and termination of this Agreement). Whenever in this Agreement any of the parties hereto is referred to, such reference shall be deemed to include the successors and assigns of such party. All covenants, promises and agreements in this Agreement contained, by or on behalf of Borrowers, shall inure to the benefit of the respective successors and assigns of Lender.

11.2       Lender’s Discretion. Whenever pursuant to this Agreement, Lender exercises any right given to it to approve or disapprove, or any arrangement or term is to be satisfactory to Lender, the decision of Lender to approve or disapprove or to decide whether arrangements or terms are satisfactory or not satisfactory shall (except as is otherwise specifically herein provided) be in the sole discretion of Lender and shall be final and conclusive.

11.3       Governing Law.

11.3.1       The substantive laws of the State of New York shall govern the validity, construction, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement, without reference to the principles of conflicts of laws.

11.3.2       Any legal suit, action or proceeding against Lender or Borrowers arising out of or relating to this Agreement may at Lender’s option be instituted in any federal or state court located in the City of New York, New York or the County of New York, New York, and each Borrower waives any objections that such Borrower may now or hereafter have based on venue and/or forum non conveniens of any such suit, action or proceeding, and each Borrower hereby irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of any such court in any suit, action or proceeding. EACH BORROWER DESIGNATES AND APPOINTS THE CORPORATION TRUST COMPANY, HAVING AN ADDRESS AT CORPORATION TRUST CENTER, 1209 ORANGE STREET, WILMINGTON, DELAWARE 19801, TO SO SERVE AS ITS AGENT TO RECEIVE ON THEIR BEHALF SERVICE OF ALL PROCESS IN ANY SUCH PROCEEDINGS IN ANY FEDERAL OR STATE COURT IN THE CITY OF NEW YORK OR THE COUNTY OF NEW YORK, SUCH SERVICE BEING HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGED BY EACH SUCH BORROWER TO BE EFFECTIVE AND BINDING SERVICE IN EVERY RESPECT. A COPY OF ANY SUCH PROCESS SO SERVED SHALL BE MAILED BY

104 

 

REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL TO SUCH BORROWER AT THEIR PRINCIPAL EXECUTIVE OFFICES, EXCEPT THAT UNLESS OTHERWISE PROVIDED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY FAILURE TO MAIL SUCH COPY SHALL NOT AFFECT THE VALIDITY OF SERVICE OF PROCESS. IF ANY AGENT APPOINTED BY ANY BORROWER AS SUCH BORROWER’S AGENT FOR SERVICE OF PROCESS REFUSES TO ACCEPT SERVICE OF PROCESS, SUCH BORROWER HEREBY AGREES THAT SERVICE UPON SUCH BORROWER BY MAIL SHALL CONSTITUTE SUFFICIENT SERVICE. NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR SHALL LIMIT THE RIGHT OF LENDER TO BRING PROCEEDINGS AGAINST ANY BORROWER OR ANY GUARANTOR IN THE COURTS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. Each Borrower (i) shall give prompt notice to Lender of any change in address of their authorized agent hereunder, (ii) may at any time and from time to time designate a substitute authorized agent with an office in New York, New York (which office shall be designated as the address for service of process), and (iii) shall promptly designate such a substitute if such Borrower’s authorized agent ceases to have an office in New York, New York or is dissolved without leaving a successor.

11.4       Entire Agreement; Modification; Waiver in Writing. This Agreement, together with the other Loan Documents, contains the entire understanding between the parties to the matters addressed herein and supersedes any other understandings or agreements with respect to the matters covered hereby. No modification, amendment, extension, discharge, termination or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or consent or waiver referred to in any Loan Document or consent to any departure by Borrowers therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in a writing signed by the party against whom enforcement is sought, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance, and for the purpose, for which given. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no notice to or demand on Borrowers shall entitle Borrowers to any other or future notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances.

11.5       Delay Not a Waiver.

11.5.1       Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any provision of any Loan Document unless such waiver is in writing and is signed by Lender. Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, neither Lender’s acceptance of any payment with knowledge of a Default or Event of Default by Borrowers, nor any failure by Lender to exercise any remedy following a Default or Event of Default by Borrowers shall be deemed a waiver of such Default or Event of Default, and no waiver by Lender of any particular Default or Event of Default on the part of Borrowers shall be deemed a waiver of any other Default or Event of Default or of any similar Default or Event of Default in the future, nor shall such waiver impair any remedy, right or power consequent thereon. No course of conduct or course of dealing or course of performance during the period of time that the Secured Obligations remain outstanding shall be deemed to constitute a waiver by Lender of any rights under any of the Loan Documents.

105 

 

11.5.2       Neither any failure nor any delay on the part of Lender in insisting upon strict performance of any term, condition, covenant or agreement, or exercising any right, power, remedy or privilege hereunder, or under any other Loan Document, or any other instrument given as security therefor, shall operate as or constitute a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other future exercise, or the exercise of any other right, power, remedy or privilege. In particular, and not by way of limitation, by accepting payment after the due date of any amount payable under this Agreement, the Notes or any other Loan Document, Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any right either to require prompt payment when due of all other amounts due under this Agreement, the Notes or the other Loan Documents, or to declare a default for failure to effect prompt payment of any such other amount.

11.6       Notices. Any notice, consent or approval required or permitted to be given by Borrowers or Lender under this Agreement shall be in writing and will be deemed given (i) upon personal delivery, (ii) on the first (1st) Business Day after receipted delivery to a courier service which guarantees next-business-day delivery, or (iii) on the third (3rd) Business Day after mailing, by registered or certified United States mail, postage prepaid, in any case to the appropriate party at its address set forth below:

EACH BORROWER AND LENDER, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT THAT EACH BORROWER AND LENDER MAY LAWFULLY DO SO, WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY TORT ACTION, BROUGHT BY ANY PARTY HERETO WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE NOTE OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS.

11.8       Headings. The Article and Section headings in this Agreement are included herein for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement for any other purpose.

11.9       Assignment.

11.9.1       Participation. Lender may at any time grant to one or more banks or other financial institutions (each a “Participant”) participating interests in the Secured Obligations owing to Lender. No Participant shall have any rights or benefits under this Agreement or any other Loan Document. In the event of any such grant by Lender of a participating interest to a Participant, Lender shall remain responsible for the performance of its obligations hereunder, and Borrowers shall continue to deal solely and directly with Lender in connection with Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement pursuant to which Lender may grant such a participating interest shall provide that Lender shall retain the sole right and responsibility to enforce the obligations of Borrowers hereunder including, without limitation, the right to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement.

11.9.2       Right to Sell. Without in any way limiting the provisions of Section 11.9.1, Lender shall have the right to sell, transfer or assign participating interests in the Secured Obligations or to sell, transfer or assign other direct or indirect interests in the Loan or the Loan Documents and in the obligations of Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, in such amounts as deemed appropriate by Lender to one or more Persons. Lender may sell, transfer or assign all its interest in the Loan and the Loan Documents, and in the obligations of Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, to one or more Persons. Upon an assignment of all or a portion of Lender’s direct interest in the Loan and Loan Documents, and an assumption by the assignee of Lender’s obligations hereunder with respect to the portion of the Loan so assigned, Lender shall be released from its obligations hereunder with respect to the assigned interest from and after the date of such assignment.

11.9.3       Lender Transferee. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein contained, Borrowers authorize Lender to disclose to any Participant or transferee of the Loan (each, a “Lender Transferee”) and any prospective Lender Transferee any and all financial and other information in Lender’s possession concerning any Borrower Control Person and its respective Affiliates, which has been delivered to Lender by or on behalf of any Borrower pursuant to this Agreement or which has been delivered to such Lender by or on behalf of any Borrower in connection with Lender’s credit evaluation of any Borrower Control Person and its respective Affiliates prior to becoming a party to this Agreement.

108 

 

11.10       Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Agreement and each other Loan Document shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under Legal Requirements, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under Legal Requirements, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

11.11       Preferences; Reinstatement. Lender shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply or reverse and reapply any and all payments by any Borrower to any portion of the Secured Obligations. To the extent Borrowers make a payment or payments to Lender for Borrowers’ benefit, which payment or proceeds or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any Legal Requirements, then, to the extent of such payment or proceeds received, this Agreement shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as applicable, and the obligations hereunder or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continue in full force and effect, as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by Lender.

11.12       Waiver of Notice. Borrowers shall not be entitled to any notices of any nature whatsoever from Lender except with respect to matters for which this Agreement or another Loan Document specifically and expressly provides for the giving of notice by Lender to Borrowers and except with respect to matters for which Borrowers are not, pursuant to applicable Legal Requirements, permitted to waive the giving of notice. Borrowers hereby expressly waive the right to receive any notice from Lender with respect to any matter for which this Agreement or the other Loan Documents does not specifically and expressly provide for the giving of notice by Lender to Borrowers.

11.13       Exhibits and Schedules Incorporated. The information set forth on the cover, the heading and the recitals hereof, and the Exhibits and the Schedules attached hereto, are hereby incorporated herein as a part of this Agreement with the same effect as if set forth in the body hereof.

11.14       Offsets, Counterclaims and Defenses. Any assignee of Lender’s interest in and to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall take the same free and clear of all offsets, counterclaims or defenses that are unrelated to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents that Borrowers may otherwise have against any assignor of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. No such unrelated counterclaim or defense shall be interposed or asserted by Borrowers in any action or proceeding brought by any such assignee upon this Agreement or upon any other Loan Document. 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 Borrowers, unless and to the extent Borrowers would be permanently barred from asserting such claim in any action or proceeding.

109 

 

11.15       No Joint Venture or Partnership. Borrowers and Lender intend that the relationship created hereunder be solely that of borrower and lender. Nothing herein is intended to (a) create a joint venture, partnership, tenancy-in-common, or joint tenancy relationship between Borrowers and Lender, or (b) grant Lender any interest in the Collateral other than that of secured party, mortgagee or lender.

11.16       Waiver of Marshaling of Assets Defense. To the maximum extent not prohibited by Legal Requirements, Borrowers waive all rights to a marshaling of the assets of Borrowers, and others with interests in Borrowers (or any of them) and of the Collateral, or to a sale in inverse order of alienation in the event of foreclosure of the interests hereby created, and agrees not to assert any right under any laws pertaining to the marshaling 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 any Collateral for the collection of the Secured Obligations without any prior or different resort for collection, or the right of Lender to the payment of the Secured Obligations out of the Net Proceeds of the Collateral in preference to every other claimant whatsoever.

11.17       Conflict; Documents. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and the provisions of any of the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Agreement shall prevail. The parties hereto acknowledge that they were represented by counsel in connection with the negotiation and drafting of the Loan Documents and that the Loan Documents shall not be subject to the principle of construing their meaning against the party that drafted the same.

11.18       Brokers and Financial Advisors. Each Borrower and Lender hereby represents that the representing party has dealt with no financial advisors, brokers, underwriters, placement agents, agents or finders in connection with the Loan, other than Oberon Securities, LLC (“Broker”). Borrowers shall pay the fees and commissions due to Broker pursuant to a separate written agreement.

11.19       Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument.

11.20       Estoppel Certificates. Borrowers hereby agree, at any time and from time to time upon not less than ten (10) days’ prior written notice by Lender, to execute, acknowledge and deliver simultaneously to Lender and the party specified in such notice, a statement, in writing, signed and acknowledged, certifying to Lender and such specified party (a) the balance of principal, interest, and other sums then outstanding under the Notes and the other Loan Documents, (b) whether or not any Borrower claims that Lender is in default of any of the obligations of Lender under this Agreement, the Notes or the other Loan Documents, and if so, the nature of any such default or defaults, (c) whether or not any Borrower claims to have any offsets or defenses with respect to the Secured Obligations and, if so, the nature of such offsets or defenses, (d) that this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are unmodified and in full force and effect (or if there have been modifications, that the same, as modified, is in full force and effect and stating the modifications hereto), and (e) stating whether or not, to the knowledge of Borrowers, any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing, and, if so, specifying each such Default or Event of Default.

11.21       Payment of Expenses.

11.21.1       Borrowers shall pay all applicable Transaction Costs, which shall include, without limitation, (A) out-of-pocket costs and expenses of Lender in connection with (i) the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of the Loan Documents, and any amendment, supplement, or modification to the Loan Documents (or any of them) and any other document being prepared in connection herewith or therewith, or in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; (ii) the creation, perfection or protection of Lender’s Liens in the Collateral (including, without limitation, fees and expenses for title and lien searches or amended or replacement mortgages, UCC-1 Financing Statements or Security Documents, survey fees and charges, title insurance premiums and filing and recording taxes, fees and charges, third party due diligence expenses for each Property, including, without limitation, travel expenses, accounting firm fees, costs of each Appraisal of each Property, and the fees and disbursements of appraisers, environmental consultants and engineering consultants, and costs and fees incurred in connection with arranging, setting up, servicing and maintaining any reserves or accounts under this Agreement, the Reserve Agreement or other Loan Documents); (iii) the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of any amendment, waiver, restructuring or consent relating to any of the Loan Documents; and (iv) the preservation of rights under and enforcement of the Loan Documents, including any communications or discussions relating to any action that Borrowers shall from time to time request Lender to take, as well as any restructuring or rescheduling of the Secured Obligations, (B) the out-of-pocket fees, expenses and other charges of counsel to Lender in connection with all of the foregoing, and (C) Lender’s (where deemed reasonably necessary by Lender) out-of-pocket travel expenses in connection with site visits to each Property, provided however so long as (a) no Event of Default shall exist and be continuing, and (b) Borrowers shall not have received any written notice from any Governmental Authority that could give rise to a violation under any Legal Requirement or any other reasonable cause for inspection with respect to a breach of the obligations of Borrowers under the Loan Documents, there shall be no more than one site visit per year.

11.21.2       Any reference in this Agreement to attorneys’ or counsels’ fees paid or incurred by Lender shall be deemed to include paralegals’ fees and legal assistants’ fees. Moreover, wherever provision is made herein for payment of attorneys’ or counsels’ fees or expenses incurred by Lender, such provision shall include, without limitation, such fees or expenses incurred in any and all judicial, bankruptcy, reorganization, administrative, or other proceedings, including appellate proceedings, whether such fees or expenses arise before proceedings are commenced, during such proceedings or after entry of a final judgment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, during the existence of any Event of Default, any reference to “reasonable” attorneys’ or counsels’ fees in this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be deemed to refer to “out-of-pocket” attorneys’ or counsels’ fees.

11.22       Time of the Essence. Time is of the essence with regard to the obligations of Borrowers under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document.

111 

 

11.23       No Third Party Beneficiaries. Nothing in this Agreement or in any of the other Loan Documents shall confer upon any Person, other than the parties hereto and their successors and permitted assigns, any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement.

11.24       Usury Savings Clause. It is expressly stipulated and agreed to be the intent of Borrowers and Lender at all times to comply with all applicable Legal Requirements governing the highest lawful interest rate. If any applicable Legal Requirement is ever judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount called for under the Notes or under any of the other Loan Documents, or contracted for, charged, taken, reserved or received with respect to the Loan, or if acceleration of the maturity of the Notes, any prepayment by Borrowers, or any other circumstance whatsoever, results in Borrowers having paid any interest in excess of that permitted by any applicable Legal Requirement, then it is the express intent of Borrowers and Lender that all excess amounts theretofore collected by Lender be credited to the Principal Indebtedness (or, at Lender’s option, paid over to Borrowers), and the provisions of this Agreement, the Notes and other Loan Documents immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new document, so as to comply with all applicable Legal Requirements, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder and thereunder. The right to accelerate maturity of the Notes does not include the right to accelerate any interest which has not otherwise accrued on the date of such acceleration, and Lender does not intend to collect any unearned interest in the event of acceleration. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Lender for the use, forbearance or detention of the Secured Obligations shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full term of such Secured Obligations until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of such Secured Obligations does not exceed the maximum rate or amount of interest permitted under any Legal Requirements.

11.25       Joint and Several Obligation. Subject to Section 11.28 hereof, all Borrowers are jointly and severally liable for all of the Secured Obligations. All representations, warranties, and covenants made by Borrowers shall be deemed representations, warranties, and covenants of each of the Borrowers.  Any breach, Default or Event of Default by any of the Borrowers shall be deemed to be a breach, Default, or Event of Default of each of the Borrowers.

11.26       Successors and Assigns. This Agreement is binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of Borrowers and Borrowers’ successors and assigns, and Lender, and Lender’s successors and assigns. The duties, covenants, conditions, obligations, and warranties of Borrowers in this Agreement shall be joint and several obligations of Borrowers and Borrowers’ successors and assigns. The provisions of this Section 11.26 shall not in any way limit Section 11.9 hereof.

11.27       Subrogation of Lender. Lender shall be subrogated to the lien of any previous encumbrance discharged with funds advanced by Lender under the Loan Documents, regardless of whether such previous encumbrance has been released of record.

112 

 

11.28       Limitation on Liability.

11.28.1       Loss Recourse. Nothing contained in the Loan Documents shall be deemed to impair, limit or prejudice Lender’s rights (A) in foreclosure proceedings or in any ancillary proceedings brought to facilitate Lender’s foreclosure on any Property or any portion thereof or to exercise any specific rights or remedies afforded to Lender under any other provisions of the Loan Documents or by law, in equity or otherwise, subject to the non-recourse provisions set forth below, (B) to recover under any guaranty given in connection with the Loan, or (C) to pursue any personal liability of Borrowers and/or Guarantor under the Guaranty Agreement, the Environmental Indemnity Agreement or the ERISA indemnity provisions of Section 5.1.4(A)(vi) hereof. Except as expressly hereinafter set forth, the recourse of Lender with respect to the obligations evidenced by this Agreement, the Notes, the Mortgages and the other Loan Documents (except for the Guaranty Agreement and the Environmental Indemnity Agreement) shall be solely to the Properties, Chattels, Intangible Personalty and other Collateral. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Notes, the Mortgages or any other Loan Document, nothing shall be deemed in any way to impair, limit or prejudice the rights of Lender to collect or recover from Borrowers and/or Guarantor under the Guaranty Agreement the amount of: (i) any actual damages (excluding consequential or punitive damages but including consequential or punitive damages payable to third parties), costs or loss (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by Lender as a result of any waste or willful destruction by any Borrower, Guarantors or any Borrower Control Person in connection with the Properties; (ii) any condemnation award or insurance Proceeds attributable to any Property that were not paid to Lender or used to restore such Property in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or the applicable Mortgages; (iii) any Gross Revenue generated by any Property collected by or for any Borrower (A) following an Event of Default under any Loan Document and not properly applied to the reasonable operating expenses of the Properties, including, without limitation, payments due under the Notes and/or this Agreement and other sums due under the Loan Documents, or (B) to the extent not properly deposited into the Deposit Account (as defined in the Cash Collateral Agreement) as and when required pursuant to the Loan Documents; (iv) any security deposits, advance deposits or any other deposits collected with respect to any Property collected by or for any Borrower and not applied in accordance with the applicable Leases; (v) the amount of any accrued taxes, assessments, and/or utility charges affecting any Property (whether or not the same have been billed to any Borrower) that are either unpaid by Borrowers or advanced by Lender pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents except to the extent of any of the foregoing accrue after the Termination Date, provided however, that this subsection (v) shall not apply to the Individual Guarantors; (vi) any sums expended by Lender in fulfilling the obligations of any Borrower, as lessor, under any Leases affecting any Property, except to the extent (A) such obligations arise after the Termination Date, and (B) such Lease was previously approved in writing by Lender or was a Safe Harbor Lease; (vii) any misrepresentation that is not covered by clause (ii) of Section 11.28.2; (viii) any damages, costs or loss suffered by Lender (that would otherwise be covered by insurance) as a result of any Borrower’s failure to maintain any insurance required under the terms of any Loan Document and/or pay any deductible under any such insurance, except to the extent the foregoing described in this clause (viii) accrues after the Termination Date; (ix) the gross negligence or willful misconduct by or on behalf of Borrowers, Guarantors or any Borrower Control Person or any of their respective agents or representatives acting at the

113 

 

direction of any of the foregoing in connection with the Loan or the Properties; (x) the misappropriation, misapplication or conversion by Borrowers, Guarantors or any Borrower Control Person of (A) any proceeds of any disposition of all or a portion of any Property or the Collateral in violation of the Loan Documents, (B) any distributions in violation of Section 5.2.14 or (C) any other income or proceeds from any portion of the Properties, in violation of the Loan Documents; (xi) any amendment, modification or termination of any of the Organizational Documents of Borrowers, Guarantors (other than any Guarantor that is an individual) or any Borrower Control Person or any loan agreement or similar agreement binding on any such Person, in each case without the prior written consent of Lender, in its sole and absolute discretion, or any failure to maintain its status as a single purpose entity as approved by Lender; (xii) a breach of any of the covenants set forth in Section 4.1.16 or 5.1.15 (ERISA) or Section 5.1.14 or 5.2.23 hereof (SPE); (xiii) any assertion by Borrowers, Guarantors or any Borrower Control Person of any of the foregoing that the relationship between Lender and Borrowers is anything other than that of a debtor and creditor arising under the Loan Documents; (xiv) the failure to obtain Lender’s consent in connection with any amendment, modification or termination of the Management Agreements, to the extent such consent is required under the Loan Documents; (xv) the failure to obtain Lender’s consent in connection with the execution, amendment, extension or termination of any Lease, to the extent such consent is required under the Loan Documents; or (xvi) any breach of any of the provisions of the Cash Collateral Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the matters set forth in this Section 11.28.1 shall be fully recourse to Borrowers and Guarantors.

11.28.2       Full Recourse. The agreement contained in this Section 11.28.2 to limit the personal liability of Borrowers to its interest in the Properties, Chattels, Intangible Personalty and other Collateral shall become null and void and be of no further force and effect, and Borrowers and Guarantor shall be personally liable for the repayment of the Secured Obligations in the event (i) of any breach or violation of Section 5.2.1, Section 5.2.2, Section 5.2.3, Section 5.2.4 or Article 7 of this Agreement, or Section 5.4, Section 5.5 or Section 5.7 of each of the Mortgages or any other provision of this Agreement or of the other Loan Documents regarding (1) the Transfer of any Property, the Chattels, the Intangible Personal Property or other Collateral or any portion thereof or interest therein, or (2) the Transfer of any direct or indirect interest in any Borrower; (ii) of any fraud or material misrepresentation by any Borrower in connection with any Property, the Loan Documents or the Loan Application; (iii) that any Borrower forfeits any Property, the Chattels, the Intangible Personalty or other Collateral or any portion of the Property, the Chattels, the Intangible Personalty or other Collateral due to criminal activity; (iv) of any attempt by any Borrower, Guarantor or any other Borrower Owner Person to materially delay any foreclosure against any Property, Chattels, Intangible Personalty and/or other Collateral (provided however that a defense of actual payment raised by Borrower, based upon documented proof of payment, shall not be considered an attempt to materially delay), or any other exercise by Lender of its remedies under the Loan Documents, which attempts shall include, without limitation, (A) any claim that any Loan Document is invalid or unenforceable to an extent that would preclude any such foreclosure or other exercise of remedies, (B) any Borrower filing a petition in bankruptcy, any Borrower acquiescing in an involuntary bankruptcy proceeding, any Borrower failing to oppose in good faith the entry of an order for relief pursuant to any involuntary bankruptcy petition filed against any Borrower, any Borrower filing a petition or answer seeking, or failing to oppose any petition or answer seeking, any reorganization,

114 

 

arrangement, composition, readjustment, liquidation, dissolution or similar relief under any Bankruptcy Law (whether filed by or against any Borrower), or any Borrower consenting to or colluding in the filing of any involuntary bankruptcy petition against such Borrower or any other Borrower, or (C) the appointment (other than by Lender) of a receiver, trustee or liquidator with respect to any Borrower or any Property or any part thereof; (v) of any execution, amendment, modification, assignment or termination of any Lease to any Required Tenant, or any execution or subsequent amendment, modification, assignment or termination of any Lease for any space currently occupied by any Required Tenant, in each case, without the prior written consent of Lender; or (vi) prior to occurrence of any Change of Control Event Remedy, any two (2) of the three (3) Individual Guarantors are no longer employed in such capacity as senior executives of Borrower or Affiliates of Borrower for any reason during the term of the Loan, other than as a result of death or disability.

11.29       Appointment of Servicer and Delegation of Lender Responsibilities. Borrowers acknowledge and agree that, at the sole option of Lender, the Loan may be serviced by a Servicer. The retention of Servicer and the delegation of some or all of Lender’s responsibilities to any such Servicer shall not, however, release Lender from any of Lender’s obligations under the Loan Documents. As of the date of this Agreement, Lender has retained Berkadia Commercial Mortgage LLC as Servicer. Borrowers shall also be responsible for the payment of all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Servicer in connection with the services performed by Servicer in connection with the Loan (including, without limitation, the disbursement of funds held by or on behalf of Lender in escrow or reserve accounts, inspections of any Property, casualty and condemnation matters and a matters concerning Defaults and Events of Default). Any action taken by Servicer pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be binding upon Lender to the same extent as if taken by Lender, and Borrowers shall be entitled to rely on all actions and directions given by Servicer in respect of the Loan and the Loan Documents unless and until Borrowers receive contrary written instructions from Lender.

11.30       Acceptance of Cures for Events of Default. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, any reference to the “continuance” of an Event of Default, the “continuation” of an Event of Default or that an Event of Default is “continuing”), Lender shall in no event or under any circumstance be obligated or required to accept a cure by any Borrower, any Guarantor, or by any other Person of an Event of Default unless Lender agrees to do so in the exercise of Lender’s sole and absolute discretion, it being agreed that once an Event of Default has occurred and so long as Lender has not determined to accept a cure of such Event of Default in writing, Lender shall be absolutely and unconditionally entitled to pursue all rights and remedies available to it under this Agreement, the Mortgages or the other Loan Documents or otherwise at law or in equity.

11.31       Binding Action. Borrowers agree that with respect to any consent, direction, approval or action that is required of Borrowers under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, any consent, direction, approval or action by any Borrower shall be binding on Borrowers and that Lender shall have no obligation to confirm any such consent, direction, approval or action given to it and may act in reliance upon any such consent, direction, approval or action.

115 

 

11.32       Reasonable Standard. Borrowers hereby waive any claim that Borrowers may have against any of the Indemnified Parties based upon any assertion that any such Indemnified Party has acted unreasonably or that any such Indemnified Party has unreasonably withheld or unreasonably delayed any action, in each case, to the extent that such Indemnified Party had an obligation, either at law or pursuant to the Loan Documents, to act reasonably. Borrowers hereby agree that the sole remedy of Borrowers based upon any claim that an Indemnified Party has acted unreasonably or that an Indemnified Party has unreasonably withheld or unreasonably delayed any action, in each case, to the extent that such Indemnified Party had an obligation, either at law or pursuant to the Loan Documents, to act reasonably, shall be an action for specific performance, injunctive relief or declaratory judgment. Borrowers hereby further agree that the Indemnified Parties shall not be liable for any monetary damages in respect of any such claim and that Borrowers’ sole remedy in respect of any such claim shall be limited to specific performance, injunctive relief or declaratory judgment.

11.33       Claims Against Lender. Lender shall not be in default or breach under this Agreement, or under any of the other Loan Documents, unless a written notice specifically setting forth the claim of Borrowers shall have been given to Lender within three (3) months after any Borrowers first had knowledge of the occurrence of the event that Borrowers allege gave rise to such claim and Lender does not remedy or cure the default or breach, if any there be, promptly thereafter. Each Borrower waives any claim, set-off or defense against Lender arising by reason of any alleged default or breach by Lender as to which Borrowers do not give such notice timely as aforesaid. Each Borrower acknowledges that such waiver is or may be essential to Lender’s ability to enforce Lender’s remedies without delay and that such waiver therefore constitutes a substantial part of the bargain between Lender and Borrowers with respect to the Loan.
