RECITALS
​

Lender and Borrower are entering into this Agreement to set forth more fully the terms and conditions of the loan transaction.
​
AGREEMENT
​
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein set forth and other good and valuable consideration, and the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, Borrower and Lender do hereby agree as follows:
​
1.        LOAN AMOUNT AND PURPOSE.
(a)       Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and provided no Event of Default (hereafter defined) has occurred, Lender agrees to lend to Borrower the principal amount not to exceed $15,000,000.00 (the "Loan").  The Loan shall be advanced in a single advance on the date hereof.  The Loan may not be repaid and then re-borrowed.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, all advances of the Loan now or at any time hereafter made by Lender to Borrower under this Agreement shall constitute one loan secured by Lender's security interest in the Property and the improvements located thereon.
​
(b)       The Loan shall be used by Borrower to acquire the “Property” and all existing furniture, fixtures, and equipment therein used in connection with the refurbishing or operations of the Property (hereafter defined) and to pay for such closing costs incidental to the Loan as Lender may approve.
​
2.        RESERVE ACCOUNTS.
(a)    Beginning on February 5, 2023, and continuing on the fifth (5th) day of each calendar month thereafter, Borrower will deposit into a controlled account (the “FF&E Reserve Account”) acceptable to Lender deposits equal to the gross revenues received by Borrower from the Property for the immediately preceding twelve (12) calendar months multiplied by 4%, and divided by 12.  Such deposits (the “FF&E Reserves”) shall be held according to the terms and conditions of the Lender’s standard FF&E Reserve Agreement.  The FF&E Reserves shall be pledged to Lender
​

​
as additional collateral for the Loan.  Provided that there is no existing Event of Default and no event which, with the giving of notice, the passage of time or both, could constitute an Event of Default, the FF&E Reserves may be used by Borrower for reimbursement of repair or replacement of any items that would normally qualify as long-term capital improvements in a normal GAAP accounting method and replacements of worn out or broken items of FF&E (collectively, “Capital Improvements”).  No funds will be disbursed from the FF&E Reserve Account for normal repair and maintenance items.  Monthly FF&E Reserves shall be calculated by multiplying the  The Borrower shall have the ability to draw upon the account for qualified items until the balance of the FF&E Reserve Account reaches a zero balance.  During the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender may, but shall not be obligated to, apply the balance of the FF&E Reserve Account to the outstanding balance of the Loan in such order as Lender may determine in its sole discretion.
(b)    Simultaneously upon the closing of the Loan, Borrower shall deposit Seven Hundred Sixty-Four Thousand Five Hundred Eighty Three and 33/100 Dollars ($764,583.33) into a reserve account with Servicer (the “Interest Reserve Account”).  During the first twelve (12) months of the Loan, Lender agrees to make advances from the Interest Reserve Account on each monthly payment date to itself directly for the payment of interest on the then outstanding principal balance of the Loan.  Borrower acknowledges and agrees that Lender shall have no obligation to disburse funds from the Interest Reserve Account if there is an existing Event of Default or if there is any state of facts in existence which constitute or, with notice or passage of time or both would constitute an Event of Default under this Loan Agreement or any of the Loan Documents. For clarification, the existence of the Interest Reserve Account shall not relieve Borrower from its obligation to make all payments under the Note as and when due and payable and, if Borrower is not entitled to have the funds in the Interest Reserve Account used to pay the interest due on the outstanding principal balance of the Loan because there is an existing Event of Default or a state of facts in existence which constitute or, with notice or passage of time or both would constitute an Event of Default under this Loan Agreement or any of the Loan Documents,  or if there are insufficient funds in the Interest Reserve Account to make any such payment, Borrower shall remain responsible for and shall make all payments under the Note as and when due and payable. Borrower hereby pledges, transfers, assigns and sets over to Lender, and grants to Lender a continuing first priority security interest in and to, the Interest Reserve Account and all funds therein from time to time, and all profits and proceeds thereof as security for full payment of the Loan and timely performance of Borrower’s obligations under the Loan Documents.  Borrower agrees to execute, acknowledge, deliver, file or do, at its sole expense, all other acts, assignments, notices, agreements or other instruments as Lender may reasonably require in order to perfect the foregoing security interest, pledge and assignment or otherwise to fully effectuate the rights granted to Lender by this Section 2(b).  In addition to all other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available at law or in equity, Lender shall have all rights of a secured party under Article 9 of the UCC with respect to the Interest Reserve Account and the funds therein.

Upon the cessation of a Cash Management Period and provided no Cash Management Period is continuing, all funds remaining in the Cash Collateral Reserve shall be disbursed to Borrower.

​
(a)    Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender may, at its option, without notice or demand of any kind, and in addition to any and all other rights available to Lender under applicable law, exercise any one or more of the following remedies, as Lender, in its sole discretion, shall elect:
i.    Declare the entire unpaid balance of the Loan immediately due payable;
ii.   Cease making any further disbursements or advances hereunder and terminate any further obligation to do so;
iii.  Proceed by appropriate court action, either at law or in equity, to enforce performance by Borrower of its obligations under this Agreement or to recover damages for the breach thereof;
(b)    All sums collected by Lender may be applied by Lender to the payment of Borrower's obligations hereunder in such priority and proportions as Lender, in its sole discretion, shall deem proper.
(c)    Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, Lender also may, but without any obligation to do so and without notice to or demand on Borrower, notify Borrower’s franchisor of the Event of Default in accordance with the comfort letter and Lender’s proposed remedies.
(d)    No remedy referred to herein is intended to be exclusive, but each, except to the extent otherwise expressly provided herein, shall be cumulative and in addition to any other remedy referred to above or in the other Loan Documents or otherwise available to Lender at law or in equity.
12.      ASSIGNMENT OF LENDER'S INTEREST.
(a)    Lender, and each successor to Lender's interest, has the right, in its sole discretion, to transfer, sell, pledge, assign or otherwise encumber or dispose of its interest in the Loan and/or servicing rights with respect thereto, to grant participations herein, or to issue pass-through certificates or other securities ("Securities") evidencing a beneficial interest in a rated or unrated public offering or private placement of which the Loan will be made a part; provided, however, that for so long as Borrower is not in default hereunder, each such transfer shall be subject to Borrower's rights hereunder.  Upon notification of any such transfer, Borrower agrees to make all payments required under the Note and this Agreement to the designated transferee without asserting any defense, setoff, recoupment, claim or counterclaim which Borrower may have against Lender.
​
(b)    If Lender, or any successor to Lender's interest, determines to undertake any action contemplated by subsection (a) above, Borrower acknowledges that Lender may forward to each prospective purchaser, transferee, assignee, servicer, participant, investor or their respective successors (collectively, "Investor") or any agency rating the Securities, all documents and information which Lender now has or
​

10



​
may hereafter acquire relating to the Loan (including personal financial statement of Borrower or any guarantor), as Lender determines necessary or desirable.  Borrower's execution of this Agreement shall be deemed Borrower's written consent to Lender's furnishing of such information, but, if requested by Lender, Borrower agrees to confirm such consent to writing to Lender.  Borrower further agrees to cooperate, and to cause each guarantor to cooperate with Lender in connection with any action contemplated under subsection (a) including, without limitation, executing any financing statements, continuation statements or other documents deemed necessary by such Lender or such transferee to create, perfect, protect or preserve the rights and interests to be acquired by it, meeting with any rating agency for due diligence purposes, and providing all information concerning the Property, the financial condition of Borrower, or the financial condition of any guarantor as Lender may request; provided however, such cooperation shall be at Lender’s expense and no such documents shall increase Borrower’s obligations under any of the Loan Documents.
13.      BORROWER ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES. Upon Lender's request from time to time, Borrower agrees to execute and deliver to Lender (or to such party as Lender may designate from time to time) an estoppel certificate in form and substance satisfactory to Lender (or such other party designated by Lender).  Borrower's failure to execute and deliver such estoppel certificate within 10 business days of Lender's written request therefor shall be deemed, at Lender's option, to be Borrower's conclusive statement of the facts set forth in such certificate.
14.      USURY.  The Loan is being made to the Borrower subject to the express condition that at no time shall Borrower be obligated or required to pay interest on the Loan or amounts due hereunder at a rate which could subject the holder of the Note to either civil or criminal liability as a result of being in excess of the maximum interest rate which Borrower is permitted by applicable law to contract or agree to pay.  If by the terms of this Agreement or the Note, Borrower is at any time required or obligated to pay interest on the Loan at a rate in excess of such maximum rate, the rate of interest under Note shall be deemed to be immediately reduced to such maximum rate and the interest payable shall be computed at such maximum rate and all prior interest payments in excess of such maximum rate shall be applied and shall be deemed to have been payments in reduction of the principal balance of the Note.  All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Lender for the use, forbearance, or detention of the Loan shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the full stated term of the Note until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Loan does not exceed the maximum lawful rate of interest from time to time in effect and applicable to the Loan for so long as the Loan is outstanding.
15.      NOTICES. All notices and other communications under this Agreement are to be in writing, addressed to the respective party to the address as set forth below such party's signature hereto, and shall be deemed to have been duly given (a) upon delivery, if delivered in person with receipt acknowledged by the recipient thereof, (b) one business day after having been timely deposited for overnight delivery, fee prepaid, with any reputable overnight courier service, or (c) three business days after having
​

11



​
been deposited in any post office or mail depository regularly maintained by the U.S. Postal Service and sent by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested.  Each party may establish a new address from time to time by written notice to the other given in accordance with this section; provided, however, that no such change of address will be effective until written notice thereof is actually received by the party to whom such change of address is sent.  Notice to additional parties designated by a party entitled to notice are for convenience only and are not required for notice to a party to be effective in accordance with this section.
16.      MISCELLANEOUS.
(a)    Line of Credit.  Within forty-five (45) days of execution of this Agreement, the Borrower and the Lender shall execute an agreement whereby the Lender issues a line of credit (the “Line of Credit”) in an amount between one million dollars ($1,000,000) and two million dollars ($2,000,000).  Such line of credit shall include additional terms, including but not limited to collateralization and repayment, as mutually agreed upon by the Borrower and the Lender
(b)    Entire Agreement Modification. This Agreement, together with the other Loan Documents, represents the entire agreement between Borrower and Lender with respect to the transaction contemplated thereby and supersede all prior discussions, representations, communications and agreements (oral and written) by and between Lender and Borrower with respect thereto.  In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Loan Documents, the following order of priority shall be used to resolve such conflict: the Note shall control over this Agreement, and this Agreement shall control over all other Loan Documents. Neither the terms of this Agreement nor any of the other Loan Documents shall be waived, modified, supplemented or terminated in any manner whatsoever, except by a written instrument signed by the party against whom enforcement thereof is sought and then only to the extent expressly set forth in such writing.  Time is of the essence of this Agreement.
(c)    Binding Effect; Joint and Several Obligations.  The terms and provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Borrower and Lender and their respective heirs, executors, legal representatives, successors, and assigns, whether by voluntary action of the parties or by operation of law.  The foregoing shall not be construed, however, to permit assignments or transfers otherwise prohibited.  If Borrower consists of more than one person or entity, each shall be jointly and severally liable to perform the obligations of Borrower under this Agreement.

or partial exercise by Lender of any right or remedy will preclude other or further exercise thereof or preclude the exercise of any other right or remedy, and a waiver expressly made in writing on one occasion will be effective only in that specific instance and only for the precise purpose for which given, and will not be construed as a consent to or a waiver of any right or remedy on any future occasion.  No notice to or demand on Borrower in any instance will entitle Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of Lender's rights to take any other or future action in any circumstances without notice or demand.

(h)    Ambiguity; Headings and Construction of Certain Terms. Neither this Agreement nor any uncertainty or ambiguity herein shall be construed or resolved against Lender by virtue of the fact that such document has originated with Lender as drafter. Borrower agrees that this Agreement shall be construed and interpreted according to the ordinary meaning of the words used so as to accomplish fairly the purposes and intentions of the parties hereto.  Words used in this Agreement may be used interchangeably in singular or plural form, and any pronoun shall be deemed to cover all genders.  Section headings are for convenience only and shall not be used in interpretation of this Agreement. "Herein," "hereof" and "hereunder" and other words of similar import refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular section, paragraph or other subdivision; and "section" refers to the entire section and not to any particular subsection, paragraph of other subdivision. Reference to days for performance shall mean calendar days unless business days are expressly indicated.
(i)     Governing Law. Except to the extent that the laws of another jurisdiction may govern the perfection of any security interest or lien in the Property granted hereunder, this Agreement shall be construed in accordance with, and shall be governed by, the laws of the State of Georgia (without giving effect to its conflicts of law rules).

Borrower and Lender agree and consent to the jurisdiction and venue of any state or federal court sitting in Dekalb County, Georgia, with respect to any legal action, proceeding, or dispute between them and hereby expressly waive any and all rights under applicable law or in equity to object to the jurisdiction and venue of said courts. Nothing herein shall, however, preclude or prevent Lender from bringing any one or more actions against Borrower in any other jurisdiction as may be necessary to enforce or realize upon the security provided for the obligations herein.
