Affiliate Collateral Pledge



EXHIBIT 10.3 
 
AFFILIATE COLLATERAL PLEDGE AND SECURITY AGREEMENT 
 
THIS AFFILIATE COLLATERAL PLEDGE AND SECURITY AGREEMENT
(“Pledge Agreement”), dated as of October 1, 2002, is made by and among BU REIT, INC., a corporation organized and existing under the laws of Florida (“Pledgor”), BANKUNITED, FSB, a federally chartered savings bank
(“Borrower”), and the FEDERAL HOME LOAN BANK OF ATLANTA (“Bank”). 
 
WHEREAS, Borrower is a member and stockholder of the Bank; 
 
WHEREAS, Pledgor is an Affiliate of Borrower (for purposes of this Pledge Agreement, Affiliate means any person or company which controls,
is controlled by, or is under common control with, Borrower, including any holding company, any subsidiary, or any service corporation of the Borrower); 
 
WHEREAS, Borrower and the Bank have entered into an Agreement for Advances and Security Agreement with Blanket Floating Lien dated as of
October 1, 2002 (such agreement, any amendments thereto, and any successor agreement that may be entered into by Borrower and the Bank in substitution therefor, are hereinafter referred to as the “Borrower Advances Agreement”), pursuant to
which the Bank may advance funds from time to time to Borrower and Borrower may pledge certain collateral from time to time to the Bank; and 
 
WHEREAS, at the request of Borrower, and in order to induce the Bank to make additional Advances to Borrower, Pledgor has agreed to pledge
certain of its property as collateral to and for the benefit of the Bank to secure the obligations of Borrower to the Bank. 
 
NOW, THEREFORE, for valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, Pledgor, Borrower, and the Bank
agree as follows: 
 
1.  Pledgor’s Receipt of Borrower Advances Agreement; Definitions.    Pledgor hereby acknowledges and agrees that it has received a copy of the Borrower Advances Agreement (including all
amendments thereto) and that it is familiar with the terms and conditions thereof. Unless otherwise defined herein or the context otherwise requires, all capitalized terms used herein shall have the same meanings as in the Borrower Advances
Agreement, except that “Borrower” as used herein shall be synonymous with “Member” as used in the Borrower Advances Agreement. 
 
2.  Creation of Security Interests. 
 
(a)  As security for all Indebtedness now or hereafter outstanding from the Borrower to the Bank
under the Borrower Advances Agreement, Pledgor hereby assigns, transfers and pledges to the Bank, and grants to the Bank a security interest in, certain property which is (i) specifically listed and identified in Attachment A hereto or any amendment
thereto or any substitute Attachment A that may be provided by the Pledgor with the agreement of the Bank from time to time, or (ii) all of the proceeds of 
 










the foregoing (collectively, the “Pledgor Collateral”). 
 
The Pledgor Collateral shall constitute Collateral for all purposes under the Borrower Advances Agreement
and, in addition to any rights or duties with respect to the Pledgor Collateral created by this Pledge Agreement, the Pledgor and the Bank shall have the same rights and duties with respect to the Pledgor Collateral as do Borrower and the Bank,
respectively, with respect to Collateral under the Borrower Advances Agreement; provided, however, that if the Bank has not requested or required delivery of Pledgor Collateral in accordance with Paragraph 3 below, then (a) Borrower shall, at all
times, hold the Pledgor Collateral in trust for the benefit of, and subject to the direction and control of, the Bank and physically safeguard the Pledgor Collateral with at least the same degree of care as the Borrower uses in physically
safeguarding its other property; and, if so requested by the Bank in writing, and (b) Borrower shall hold each set of First Mortgage Documents and all Other Mortgage Documents which are a part of the Pledgor’s Collateral in a separate file
folder with each file folder clearly labeled with the loan identification number and the name of the borrower(s). Each such file folder shall be clearly marked or stamped with the statement: “The Mortgage/Deed of Trust and Note Relating to this
Loan Have Been Assigned to the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta” or such other statement that may be approved by the Bank from time to time. If so requested by the Bank, in writing, Borrower shall physically segregate First Mortgage Documents
and Other Mortgage Documents which are a part of such Pledgor Collateral from all other property of the Borrower or the Pledgor in a manner satisfactory to the Bank. Notwithstanding any provision in any agreement between Pledgor and Borrower to the
contrary, (i) Pledgor acknowledges and agrees that Borrower has pledged, and may continue to pledge, Collateral, including First Mortgage Collateral, to Bank without the consent of Pledgor, and that any loans in which Pledgor has been granted a
participation interest may be subject to a prior security interest granted by Borrower in favor of the Bank, and (ii) Borrower acknowledges and agrees that Pledgor may, without Borrower’s consent, but in accordance with Paragraph 2(a) hereof,
substitute, amend or replace Pledgor Collateral from time to time. 
 
3.  Delivery.    Upon the Bank’s written or oral request, or promptly at any time that the Borrower becomes subject to any mandatory collateral delivery requirements that may be
established in writing by the Bank, and in either case from time to time thereafter, the Pledgor shall deliver (or, in the case of uncertificated securities, otherwise transfer) to the Bank, or to a custodian designated by the Bank, Pledgor
Collateral in an amount determined by the Bank. Pledgor Collateral delivered to the Bank or to a custodian designated by the Bank shall be endorsed or assigned by the Pledgor as directed by the Bank. 
 
4.  Right of Bank to Proceed Against Pledgor
Collateral; Waivers; Borrower Acknowledgment. 
 
(a)  Pledgor agrees that, following an Event of Default, as defined in the Borrower Advances Agreement and as modified by this Pledge Agreement, the Bank may proceed against the Pledgor Collateral in accordance with the
terms of the Borrower Advances Agreement as though Pledgor were the Member thereunder. Pledgor hereby waives and agrees not to assert: (i) any and all right to presentment, protest, demand for payment, notice of default, dishonor or nonpayment and
all other notices to or upon Borrower or Pledgor, including, without limitation, notice as to the making of any Advance or other extension of credit to Borrower or the exercise of any right by the Bank hereunder or 
 

2 









under the Borrower Advances Agreement; and (ii) any and all right to require the Bank to proceed against Borrower or any Collateral pledged
by Borrower before enforcing the Bank’s rights against the Pledgor Collateral, and any other defense based upon an election of remedies. 
 
(b)  By execution hereof, Borrower acknowledges its consent to the terms and conditions hereof and Borrower hereby waives and
agrees not to assert any and all right to require the Bank to proceed against Pledgor or the Pledgor Collateral before enforcing the Bank’s rights against the Borrower or the Collateral and any other defense based upon an election of remedies.

 
5.  Representations and Agreements
by Pledgor.    Pledgor hereby represents, warrants to, and agrees with the Bank that: 
 
(a)  Each item of Pledgor Collateral satisfies all the criteria for Qualifying Collateral set forth in the Borrower Advances
Agreement, except that the Pledgor Collateral is owned by Pledgor, rather than by Borrower, free and clear of any liens, encumbrances or other interests other than the assignment to the Bank hereunder; 
 
(b)  Pledgor has full power, right and authority to
grant the security interest in the Pledgor Collateral created hereby, as specified herein and has taken all corporate action necessary to authorize the execution and delivery of this Pledge Agreement; 
 
(c)  The security interest in the Pledgor Collateral
created hereby has been duly and validly granted by Pledgor and such security interest, and this Pledge Agreement, are enforceable in accordance with the terms hereof; 
 
(d)  This Pledge Agreement has been authorized or ratified and approved by Pledgor’s Board of
Directors and will be maintained continuously among Pledgor’s official records; 
 
(e)  All information contained in any report, schedule or other documentation provided from time to time by Pledgor to the Bank will be true and correct as of the time given; 
 
(f)  Pledgor agrees to make, execute, record and
deliver to the Bank such financing statements, notices, assignments, listings, powers and other documents with respect to the Pledgor Collateral and the Bank’s security interest therein in such form as the Bank may require; and 
 
(g)  Within thirty (30) days after the end of each
fiscal quarter of each fiscal year of Pledgor, Pledgor agrees to provide Bank with its balance sheet and income statement covering such fiscal quarter, and to provide Bank with such financial reports and other information related to Pledgor’s
financial condition as Bank may reasonably request from time to time. 
 
6.  Representation and Warranties by Borrower.    Borrower hereby represents, warrants and agrees to and with the Bank that: 
 

3 








 
(a)  Borrower has full power, right and authority to enter into this Pledge Agreement and has taken all corporate action necessary to authorize the execution and delivery of this Pledge Agreement; 
 
(b)  This Pledge Agreement is enforceable against
Borrower in accordance with the terms hereof; 
 
(c)  This Pledge Agreement has been authorized or ratified and approved by Borrower’s Board of Directors and will be maintained continuously among Borrower’s official records; 
 
(d)  Borrower agrees to make, execute, record, and
deliver to the Bank such financing statements, notices, assignments, listings, powers and other documents with respect to the Collateral (including, without limitation, the Pledgor Collateral) and the Bank’s security interest therein in such
form as the Bank may require; and 
 
(e)  Borrower agrees that a failure by either Borrower or Pledgor to perform any of the rights, responsibilities, duties, representations, warranties, and agreements under this Pledge Agreement shall constitute an Event of
Default under the Borrower Advances Agreement. 
 
7.  Governing Law.    In addition to the terms and conditions specifically set forth herein, this Pledge Agreement shall be governed by the statutory and common law of the United States and, to
the extent state law is applicable, by the laws of the State of Georgia (without giving effect to choice of law principles included therein). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the State of Georgia shall be
applicable to this Pledge Agreement, to the security interest created hereby, and to the pledge of Pledgor Collateral hereunder. 
 
9.  Partial Exercise; Amendment; Severability.    No delay on the part of the Bank in exercising any
right, power or privilege shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege or be
construed to be a waiver of any Event of Default under the Borrower Advances Agreement. No waiver by the Bank of any such Event of Default shall be effective unless in writing and signed by an authorized officer of the Bank, and no such waiver shall
be deemed to be a waiver of a subsequent Event of Default under the Borrower Advances Agreement or be deemed to be a continuing waiver. No course of dealing between Borrower or Pledgor, respectively, and the Bank or its agents or employees shall be
effective to change, modify or discharge any provision of this Pledge Agreement, or the Borrower Advances Agreement or to constitute a waiver of any Event of Default thereunder. If any provision of this Pledge Agreement is held invalid or
unenforceable to any extent or in any application, the remainder of this agreement, or application of such provision to different persons or circumstances or in different jurisdictions, shall not be affected thereby.
