inspection exceeds $2,500, the TDD Bonds Beneficiary shall have the right to review and approve such costs, such approval not to be
unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Such inspections, reviews or approvals shall not impose any responsibility or
liability of any nature upon the Director, the State or officers, employees, agents, representatives or designees of the Director or
the State, or the Borrower or any officer, official, employee, agent, representative or designee of the Borrower or without
limitation, make or cause to be made any warranty or representation as to the adequacy or safety of the structures or any of their

cause the Project to be used in a manner not permitted under the Act, (iv) and the TDD Bonds Beneficiary shall be responsible for
any additional costs incurred as a result of any such change if proceeds of the Bonds are not sufficient to pay such additional
costs.

under any construction contract made by TDD Bonds Beneficiary in connection with the Provision of the Project or in the event of a breach
of warranty with respect to any materials, workmanship or performance guaranty, the TDD Bonds Beneficiary shall promptly proceed to the
extent commercially reasonable, either separately or in conjunction with others, to exhaust its remedies against the contractor or subcontractor
so in default and against each surety for the performance of such contract. Any amounts recovered as refunds or other adjustments to the
cost of the Project in connection with the foregoing, after deduction of expenses incurred in such recovery, prior to the Completion Date
shall be paid into the Project Fund, or if recovered after the Completion Date and the full disposition of the Project Fund in accordance
with Section 3.5 hereof, shall be paid to the Trustee for deposit in the Collateral Proceeds Account.


 


Section 3.9. Investment
of Primary Reserve Account or Collateral Proceeds Account. Any moneys held as part of the Primary Reserve Account or the Collateral
Proceeds Account shall be invested by the Trustee, upon the written direction of the Treasurer.

ARTICLE IV


STATE ASSISTANCE AND REPAYMENT


 


Section 4.1. State
Assistance. The Director shall lend to the Borrower the State Assistance Amount pursuant to the Supplement and this Loan Agreement
as the State Assistance for the purpose of financing a portion of the Allowable Costs of the Project. The Borrower agrees, subject to
Section 11.4 hereof to repay the State Assistance by making all of the payments provided for in Section 4.2 or Section 4.3 of this Loan
Agreement and the TDD Bond. The loan of the State Assistance shall be evidenced and secured by the Loan Documents.


 


Section 4.2. Borrower’s Payments for the State
Assistance.


 


Not later than
the 1st day of each June and December, commencing December 1, 2022 and continuing through December 1, 2046, or until the principal of
and interest on the Bonds shall have been fully paid or provision for the payment thereof shall have been made in accordance with the
Trust Agreement, and as further evidenced and secured by the TDD Bond, the Borrower, subject to Section 11.4 hereof and in consideration
of the loan of the State Assistance, shall pay as loan payments to the Director the amounts shown on the “State Assistance Payment
Schedule” on Appendix I attached hereto and to the TDD Bond (the “Loan Payments”); provided that, all such Loan Payments
shall be made by the TDD Trustee as the payment of Debt Service Charges on the TDD Bond and to the Trustee for the account of the Borrower
and benefit of the Director as registered owner of the TDD Bond. Each payment by the TDD Trustee of Debt Service Charges on the TDD Bond
shall constitute and satisfy the obligation of the Borrower to make Loan Payments for the purpose of this Loan Agreement. Payment or provision
for payment of Debt Service Charges on the Bonds shall be deemed to be payment, or provision for payment, of Loan Payments on the Loan
and Debt Service Charges on the TDD Bond as provided in Section 6.03(a) of the TDD Indenture.


 


If any payment
required by the immediately preceding paragraph is not made on the due date thereof, the Trustee shall, to the extent that funds are available
therefor, transfer to the Debt Service Account an amount equal to such payment from the Collateral Proceeds Account and, if the balance
in the Collateral Proceeds Account is insufficient, from the Primary Reserve Account. The Trustee shall also notify the Guarantor on the
date any such payment is due if the Trustee has not received the Loan Payment by 11:00 a.m. (local time) on the date it is due.


 


If moneys are transferred
from the Primary Reserve Account or the Collateral Proceeds Account to the Debt Service Account pursuant to the provisions of Section
14 of the General Bond Order, and if no Event of Default is then existing, the Borrower shall receive a credit against Loan Payments payable
hereunder, in inverse order of their maturity, in an amount equal to the amount so transferred.


 


If no Event of
Default is then existing and if the balance in the Primary Reserve Account is greater than or equal to the aggregate amount of Loan
Payments to become due and payable during the remaining Loan Term of this Loan Agreement, the Borrower may direct the Trustee to
apply moneys in the Primary Reserve Account to pay installments of Loan Payments as they become due and, in such case and
notwithstanding the provisions of Section 4.5 hereof, neither the Borrower nor the TDD Bonds Beneficiary shall be required to
deliver moneys to the Trustee to restore the balance in the Primary Reserve Account to an amount equal to the Original Deposit.


 






    21


     


    

 


Not later than
the 1st day of each June and December, commencing June 1, 2023, the Borrower shall cause the TDD Trustee to pay to the Trustee, for the
account of the Borrower, subject to Section 11.4 hereof, an amount equal to (i) the Trustee’s semiannual administrative fee (which
semiannual administrative fee shall be calculated at an annual rate equal to 0.12% of the first $5,000,000 of the principal amount of
the Bonds outstanding immediately prior to the respective June 1 or December 1 on which the fee is to be paid and a rate equal to 0.07%
of the outstanding principal amount of the Bonds outstanding immediately prior to the respective June 1 or December 1 on which the fee
is to be paid in excess of $5,000,000), constituting the fee of the Trustee in connection with its administration of the Project Fund,
the Primary Reserve Account and the Collateral Proceeds Account, and (ii) the Director’s administrative fee calculated at a rate
equal to 0.0625% of the principal amount of the Bonds outstanding immediately prior to the respective June 1 or December 1 on which the
fee is to be paid (collectively, the “Additional Payments”). The Borrower and the Director acknowledge and agree that the
Additional Payments are intended to reimburse the Department of Development for a portion of the cost of administering the Ohio Enterprise
Bond Fund program.


 


The TDD Bonds Beneficiary
agrees to pay to the Director reasonable expenses of the Director related to the Project and requested by the Director or required by
this Loan Agreement or the Trust Agreement, or incurred in enforcing the provisions of this Loan Agreement or the Trust Agreement and
which are not otherwise required to be paid by the Borrower under the terms of this Loan Agreement.


 


In the event Borrower
or the TDD Bonds Beneficiary, as applicable, should fail to make any of the payments required in this Section 4.2, the item or installment
so in default shall continue as an obligation of the Borrower or the TDD Bonds Beneficiary, as applicable, until the amount in default
shall have been fully paid, and the Borrower agrees, subject to Section 11.4 hereof, and TDD Bonds Beneficiary also agrees to pay the
same with interest thereon, to the extent permitted by law, at the rate of the Interest Rate for Advances. If any payment required by
the first paragraph of this Section 4.2 is not made by the first day of the month following the month in which such payment is due, the
Borrower, subject to Section 11.4 hereof, or the TDD Bonds Beneficiary, as applicable, shall pay, in addition to such payment and to the
extent permitted by law, a late payment charge of 5% of the amount of such payment.


 


Section 4.3. Place
of Payments. The Loan Payments and any late payment charges to be paid in connection with the State Assistance shall be paid directly
to the Trustee, and the Trustee shall deposit such payments in the Debt Service Account. The Additional Payments with respect to the State
Assistance shall be paid to the Trustee, who shall pay such amounts to the Director, not less frequently than semi-annually, for deposit
in the First Half Account (if received by the Director between January 1 and June 30) or the Second Half Account (if received by the Director
between July 1 and December 31) created in the Trust Agreement.


 


Section 4.4. Primary
Reserve Account. Upon delivery of this Loan Agreement and in accordance with the General Bond Order and the Series Bond Order,
the Director shall cause a portion of the proceeds of the Bonds in the amount of the Original Deposit to be deposited in the Primary
Reserve Account, for which, as provided in Section 6.04 of the TDD Indenture, the Borrower shall receive a credit against the
funding of the Series 2022A Debt Service Reserve Requirement. In accordance with the provisions of the General Bond Order and the
Series Bond Order, the Trustee shall transfer moneys from the Primary Reserve Account to the Debt Service Account if (a) a Loan
Payment is not made in full when due and payable, and (b) the balance in the Collateral Proceeds Account is insufficient to provide
funds for such transfer. If, as a result of a transfer described in the immediately preceding sentence, the balance in the Primary
Reserve Account is reduced to an amount less than the Original Deposit, the Trustee shall promptly notify the Borrower, the TDD
Bonds Beneficiary, the Guarantor and the TDD Trustee by telephone and confirmed in writing, of the amount of such deficiency (a
“Primary Reserve Deficiency”). Unless and except to the extent that the Guarantor delivers money to the Trustee for
deposit in the Primary Reserve Account in an amount sufficient to eliminate the Primary Reserve Deficiency, the Borrower shall cause
the TDD Trustee, as contemplated by the TDD Indenture, to deposit from the Borrower Revenue Fund to the Borrower Reserve Account
established under TDD Indenture, on the next date that Loan Payments are scheduled to be due and payable, after first making all
transfers and deposits required to be made from the Authority Revenue Fund to pay Debt Service Charges then due and payable on
Senior Obligations outstanding under the TDD Indenture, the amount of any continuing Primary Reserve Deficiency, which shall be
disbursed immediately by the TDD Trustee to the Trustee for deposit in the Primary Reserve Account.


 






    22


     


    

 


Pursuant to Section
14 of the General Bond Order, the Trustee shall, under the circumstances described in said Section 14, transfer moneys from the Primary
Reserve Account to the Debt Service Account, in order to obtain moneys to make such transfer.


 


Section 4.5. Obligation
of the Borrower and TDD Bonds Beneficiary Hereunder Unconditional. Subject in all respects to Section 11.4 hereof as to the obligations
of the Borrower hereunder, the obligations of the Borrower and the TDD Bonds Beneficiary to make the payments required in Article IV hereof
and to perform and observe the other agreements on its part contained herein shall be absolute and unconditional until such time as the
principal of and interest and premium, if any, on the Bonds shall have been fully paid or provision for the payment thereof shall have
been made in accordance with the Trust Agreement and shall not be affected by any circumstances, including, but not limited to, any set
off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense (other than payment itself) or other right which the Borrower or the TDD Bonds Beneficiary may
have against the Director or anyone else for any reason whatsoever or the failure to complete the Provision of the Project. The Borrower
and the TDD Bonds Beneficiary hereby waive, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any and all rights which they may now have or which
at any time hereafter may be conferred upon them, by statute or otherwise, to terminate or cancel this Loan Agreement except in accordance
with the express terms hereof.


 


Section 4.6 Notice
of Other Defaults. The TDD Bonds Beneficiary shall provide written notice to the Director within ten days of any failure by the
TDD Bonds Beneficiary to pay any indebtedness of the TDD Bonds Beneficiary in excess of $50,000, or any interest or premium thereon,
when due (whether by scheduled maturity, required prepayment, by acceleration, on demand or otherwise) if such failure continues
after the applicable grace period, if any, specified in the agreement or instrument relating to such indebtedness; or of any other
default under any agreement or instrument relating to any such indebtedness, or any other event, occurring and continuing after the
applicable grace period, if any, specified in such agreement or instrument, if the effect of such default or event is to accelerate,
or to permit the acceleration of, the maturity of such indebtedness; or of any such indebtedness that is declared to be due and
payable, or required to be prepaid (other than by a regularly scheduled required prepayment), prior to the stated maturity
thereof.

ARTICLE

MAINTENANCE, TAXES AND INSURANCE


 


Section 5.1.
Maintenance and Modifications of Project by the TDD Bonds Beneficiary. Subject to the terms of the Loan Documents, the TDD Bonds
Beneficiary agrees that during the Loan Term it will keep the Project in good repair and good operating condition, normal wear and tear
excepted, at the TDD Bonds Beneficiary’s own cost.


 


The TDD Bonds
Beneficiary shall have the privilege of remodeling or making additions, modifications or improvements to the Project from time to time
as it, in the TDD Bonds Beneficiary’s discretion, may deem to be desirable for its uses and purposes; provided, the Project is still
used for the Project Purposes upon completion of remodeling, additions, modifications or improvements. The cost of such remodeling, additions,
modifications and improvements shall be paid by the TDD Bonds Beneficiary.


 


Section
5.2. Removal of Project. The TDD Bonds Beneficiary shall not be under any obligation to renew, repair or replace any
inadequate, obsolete, worn out, unsuitable, undesirable or unnecessary portions of the Project. The TDD Bonds Beneficiary shall have
the privilege from time to time of substituting machinery, equipment and related property for any portion of the Project; provided
that the machinery and equipment so substituted shall be of a value not less than the value of the machinery or equipment replaced
and shall not make the Project unsuitable for the Project Purposes, and provided that such equipment shall constitute Mortgaged
Property as defined in the Mortgage. Any such substitute machinery and equipment shall become part of the Project for purposes of
this Loan Agreement. In the event such substitutions exceed $250,000 in any calendar year, the TDD Bonds Beneficiary shall promptly
notify the Director and the Trustee of any such substitutions of machinery or equipment, which notice shall include a description of
the substituted machinery or equipment. The TDD Bonds Beneficiary shall also have the privilege of removing any portion of the
Project, without substitution therefor; provided, that the TDD Bonds Beneficiary shall pay to the Director a sum equal to the then
value of the portion of the Project removed, as determined by an Independent Engineer selected by the TDD Bonds Beneficiary, and so
long as any of the Bonds remain outstanding, the TDD Bonds Beneficiary shall pay such amounts directly to the Trustee for deposit in
the Collateral Proceeds Account and shall deliver to the Borrower, the TDD Trustee, the Director and the Trustee a certificate
signed by said Independent Engineer setting forth the value of the portion of the Project removed and stating that the removal of
thereof will not make the Project unsuitable for the Project Purposes.


 


The Director
agrees to execute and deliver such documents as the TDD Bonds Beneficiary may properly request in connection with any action taken by
the TDD Bonds Beneficiary in conformity with this Section 5.2. The removal of a portion of the Project pursuant to the provisions of this
Section shall not entitle the TDD Bonds Beneficiary to any abatement or diminution of the amounts payable under Section 4.2 or 4.3 hereof.


 






    24


     


    

 


Section
5.3. Indemnification by the Guarantor. The Guarantor shall indemnify and hold harmless the Director, the Treasurer, the State
and the Trustee (including any member, officer, director or employee thereof) (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”)
against any and all liabilities, obligations, claims, damages, penalties, causes of action, costs and expenses (including, without
limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) imposed upon, incurred by or asserted against an Indemnified Party
arising or resulting from, or in any way connected with (i) financing, acquisition, construction, installation, operation, use or
maintenance of the Project (including, but not limited to, claims relating to compliance with Chapter 4115, Ohio Revised Code), or
(ii) any act, failure to act or misrepresentation by the Borrower in connection with, or in the performance of any obligation on the
Borrower’s part to be performed, related to the issuance, sale and delivery of the Bonds or under this Loan Agreement or the
Trust Agreement. In the event any action or proceeding is brought against any Indemnified Party by reason of any such claim, such
Indemnified Party will promptly give written notice thereof to the Borrower and the Guarantor. The Borrower and the Guarantor each
shall be entitled to participate at its own expense in the defense or, if it so elects, to assume at its own expense the defense of
such claim, suit, action or proceeding, in which event such defense shall be conducted by counsel chosen by the Borrower; but if the
Borrower shall elect not to assume such defense, it shall reimburse such Indemnified Party for the reasonable fees and expenses of
any counsel retained by such Indemnified Party. If at any time the Indemnified Party becomes dissatisfied, in its reasonable
discretion, with the selection of counsel by the Guarantor, a new mutually agreeable counsel shall be retained at the expense of the
Guarantor. Each Indemnified Party agrees that the Guarantor shall have the sole right to compromise, settle or conclude any claim,
suit, action or proceeding against any of the Indemnified Parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Indemnified Party shall have
the right to employ counsel in any such action at its own expense; and provided further that such Indemnified Party shall have the
right to employ counsel in any such action and the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Guarantor if:
(i) the employment of counsel by such Indemnified Party has been authorized by the Guarantor, (ii) there reasonably appears that
there is a conflict of interest between the Guarantor and the Indemnified Party in the conduct of the defense of such action (in
which case the Guarantor shall not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of the Indemnified Party) or (iii)
the Guarantor shall not in fact have employed counsel to assume the defense of such action. The Guarantor shall also indemnify the
Indemnified Parties from and against all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, lawfully incurred in
enforcing any obligations of the Borrower under this Loan Agreement or the Loan Documents. Anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding, the foregoing agreements by the Borrower to indemnify any Indemnified Party shall not apply to negligent acts or
acts of willful misconduct on the part of such Indemnified Party. The Borrower and the Guarantor shall not be liable for any
settlement of any action or claim effected without its prior written consent. The obligations of the Guarantor under this Section
shall survive the termination of this Loan Agreement and the Loan Documents and shall be in addition to any other rights, including
without limitation, rights to indemnity which any Indemnified Party may have at law, in equity, by contract or otherwise.


 


Section 5.4.
Taxes, Other Governmental Charges and Utility Charges. The TDD Bonds Beneficiary shall pay, as the same respectively become due,
all taxes, assessments, whether general or special, and governmental charges of any kind whatsoever that may at any time be lawfully assessed
or levied against or with respect to the Project or any machinery, equipment or other property installed or brought by the TDD Bonds Beneficiary
therein or thereon which, if not paid, may become or be made a lien on the Project or a charge on the revenues and receipts therefrom,
and all utility and other charges incurred in the operation, maintenance, use, occupancy and upkeep of the Project.


 






    25


     


    

 


Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the TDD Bonds Beneficiary shall have the right, but at its own cost and expense and after prior written notice to the Director,
to contest the validity or the amount of any such tax, assessment or governmental charge by appropriate proceedings timely instituted,
unless the Director shall notify the TDD Bonds Beneficiary in writing that, in the reasonable opinion of legal counsel to the Director,
by nonpayment of any such items the lien and security interest granted under the Loan Documents to the Director as to any material part
of the Project will be materially affected or the Project or any material part thereof will be subject to loss or forfeiture, in which
event the TDD Bonds Beneficiary shall promptly cause such lien to be discharged as aforesaid or give the Director adequate protection
in regard to such risks. The Director shall have the commercially reasonable discretion to determine the adequacy of the protection proffered.


 


Section 5.5.
Insurance Required. The TDD Bonds Beneficiary shall insure the Project in an aggregate amount equal to the replacement cost of
the Project, but in any event not less than 100% of the aggregate principal amount of Bonds outstanding from time to time, against loss
or damage by fire, boiler explosion, as well as such other risks as are covered by the endorsement commonly known as “extended coverage”,
plus vandalism and malicious mischief, in insurance companies authorized to issue such policies in the State. Any insurance policy maintained
by the TDD Bonds Beneficiary pursuant to this Section may provide that the policy does not cover the first $250,000 or less of loss, or
such greater amount as may (with due regard to insurance practices from time to time current with respect to equipment similar to the
Project) be approved in writing by the Director, with the result that the TDD Bonds Beneficiary is its own respective insurer to that
extent. Any return of insurance premium or dividends based upon such premium shall be due and payable solely to the TDD Bonds Beneficiary
unless such premium shall have been paid by the Director or Trustee.


 


As an alternative
to the above, the TDD Bonds Beneficiary may insure such property under a blanket insurance policy or policies that cover not only such
property but also other properties of the TDD Bonds Beneficiary or its affiliates.


 


Section 5.6.
Additional Provisions Respecting Insurance. Any insurance policy issued pursuant to Section 5.6 hereof shall be so written or endorsed
as to make losses, if any, adjustable by the TDD Bonds Beneficiary and payable to the TDD Bonds Beneficiary and the Trustee, for the account
of the Director (subject to the rights of the holder of the Senior Mortgage); provided, any such insurance policy may be so written or
endorsed as to make losses not in excess of $250,000 for each occurrence payable directly to the TDD Bonds Beneficiary as hereinafter
provided in Section 6.1. Each insurance policy provided for in Section 5.5 and Section 5.8 hereof shall contain a provision to the effect
that the insurance company shall not cancel the same without first giving written notice thereof to the Director and the Trustee at least
thirty days in advance of such cancellation, and the TDD Bonds Beneficiary shall deliver to the Director and the Trustee duplicate copies
or certificates of insurance pertaining to each such policy of insurance procured by the TDD Bonds Beneficiary and shall keep such duplicate
copies or certificates up to date. The Trustee shall be entitled to rely on these certificates as to the compliance with the insurance
requirements without further inquiry and shall have no duty to request copies of such copies or certificates which are required to be
furnished to it hereunder.


 




    26


     


    

 


Section
5.7. Application of Net Proceeds of Insurance. The Net Proceeds of the insurance carried pursuant to the provisions of this
Loan Agreement shall be applied as follows: (i) the Net Proceeds of the insurance required in Section 5.5 hereof shall be applied as
provided in Section 6.1 hereof, and (ii) the Net Proceeds of the insurance required in Section 5.8 hereof shall be applied toward
extinguishment or satisfaction of the liability with respect to which such insurance proceeds may be paid.


 


Section 5.8.
Public Liability Insurance. The TDD Bonds Beneficiary agrees that it will maintain commercial general liability insurance against
claims for personal injury, death or property damage suffered by others upon, in or about any premises occupied by the TDD Bonds Beneficiary,
and maintain all workers’ compensation or similar insurance as may be required under the laws of any state or jurisdiction in which
the TDD Bonds Beneficiary may be engaged in business. All insurance for which provision has been made in this Section 5.8 shall be maintained
against such risks, at such amounts and with such retentions or deductibles as such insurance is usually carried by Persons engaged in
the same or similar businesses, and all such insurance shall be effected or maintained in force under a policy or policies issued by insurers
of recognized responsibility, except that the TDD Bonds Beneficiary may maintain workers’ compensation insurance in any state or
jurisdiction in any manner permitted by the laws of that jurisdiction. The Director, the Trustee, the Borrower and the TDD Trustee shall
be made additional insureds under such policies. The insurance provided by this Section 5.8 may be by blanket insurance policy or policies.


 


Section 5.9.
Advances. In the event the TDD Bonds Beneficiary shall fail to maintain the full insurance coverage required by this Loan Agreement,
shall fail to keep the Project in good repair and operating condition, normal wear and tear excepted, or shall fail to pay any tax, assessment,
governmental charge, public or private utility charge or other amount to be paid by the TDD Bonds Beneficiary under this Loan Agreement
or any other Loan Document, the Director or the Trustee may (but shall be under no obligation to) take out the required policies of insurance
and pay the premiums on the same, may make such repairs or replacements as are necessary and provide for payment thereof or pay any such
tax, assessment, governmental charge, public or private utility or other amount; and all amounts so paid or advanced therefor by the Director
or the Trustee shall become an additional obligation of the TDD Bonds Beneficiary to the Director or the Trustee, as applicable, which
amounts, together with interest thereon at the Interest Rate for Advances from the date thereof, the TDD Bonds Beneficiary agrees to pay
on demand.


 


Section 5.10.
Environmental Matters. Throughout the Loan Term, the TDD Bonds Beneficiary agrees that the TDD Bonds Beneficiary shall:


 


(a)   ensure
that the Project Site remains in compliance in all material respects with all applicable Environmental Laws;


 


(b)   maintain
a system at the Project Site to assure and monitor continued compliance in all material respects with all applicable Environmental Laws,
which system shall include periodic reviews of such compliance;


 




    27


     


    

 


(c)   in
the event the TDD Bonds Beneficiary (i) obtains, gives or receives written notice of a release or threat of release of a “reportable
quantity” (as defined in Environmental Laws) of any asbestos or asbestos-containing material, Hazardous Substance, Hazardous Waste,
Toxic Chemical or Petroleum has occurred at the Project Site (any such event being hereinafter referred to as a “Hazardous Discharge”),
or (ii) receives any notice of material violation, request for information or other written notification that the TDD Bonds Beneficiary
is potentially responsible for investigation or cleanup of environmental conditions at the Project Site (a “Cleanup Notice”),
or (iii) receives a demand letter or complaint, order, citation, or other written notice with regard to any Hazardous Discharge or material
violation of Environmental Laws affecting the Project Site (any of the foregoing being hereinafter referred to as an “Environmental
Complaint”) from any Person, including the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency or the United States Environmental Protection Agency,
the TDD Bonds Beneficiary shall, within 15 business days, give written notice of same to the Director and the Borrower detailing the facts
and circumstances of which the TDD Bonds Beneficiary are aware giving rise to the Hazardous Discharge, Cleanup Notice or Environmental
Complaint. Such information is to be provided solely to allow (i) the Director to protect the Director’s security interest in the
Project and to assess the ability of the Guarantor and TDD Bonds Beneficiary to satisfy their respective obligations under the Loan Documents
and is not intended to create nor shall it create any obligation, responsibility or liability on the part of the Director with respect
thereto, and (ii) the Borrower to consider the potential impact upon the Borrower Pledged Revenue and the ability of the Guarantor and
TDD Bonds Beneficiary to satisfy their respective obligations under the Loan Documents and is not intended to create nor shall it create
any obligation, responsibility or liability on the part of the Borrower with respect thereto;


 


(d)   respond
promptly to any Hazardous Discharge, Cleanup Notice or Environmental Complaint as required by applicable Environmental Law;


 


(e)   defend
and indemnify the Director, the Borrower, the Trustee and the TDD Trustee and hold the Director, the Borrower, the Trustee and the TDD
Trustee harmless from and against all loss, liability, damage and expense, claims, costs, fines and penalties, including reasonable attorney’s
fees, suffered or incurred by the Director, the Borrower, the Trustee or the TDD Trustee under or on account of any noncompliance or alleged
noncompliance with any Environmental Laws in connection with the Project;


 


The TDD Bonds
Beneficiary’s obligations described above in this Section 5.10(e) shall arise upon the discovery of the presence, other than in
compliance with Environmental Laws, of any asbestos, asbestos-containing material, Hazardous Substance, Hazardous Waste, Toxic Chemical
or Petroleum at the Project Site, whether or not any federal, state, or local environmental agency has taken or threatened any action
in connection with the presence of any asbestos, asbestos-containing material, Hazardous Substance, Hazardous Waste, Toxic Chemical or
Petroleum. The TDD Bonds Beneficiary’s obligations and the indemnifications hereunder shall survive the termination of this Loan
Agreement; and


 


(f)
Nothing in this Section 5.10 shall require the TDD Bonds Beneficiary to disclose or otherwise make available to the Director, the
Borrower or any third party any environmental audits or other privileged or confidential information regarding the TDD Bonds
Beneficiary or the Project, including, without limitation, the TDD Bonds Beneficiary’s compliance with Environmental Laws,
except as required by applicable Environmental Law or by order of a court of competent jurisdiction.

ARTICLE VI


DAMAGE, DESTRUCTION AND CONDEMNATION


 


Section 6.1.
Damage to or Destruction of Project. If prior to full payment of the Bonds (or provision for payment thereof having been made in
accordance with the provisions of the Trust Agreement), the Project shall be damaged or partially or totally destroyed by fire, flood,
windstorm, or other casualty, there shall be no abatement or reduction in the amounts payable by the TDD Bonds Beneficiary under this
Loan Agreement, and, to the extent that the claim for loss resulting from such damage or destruction is not greater than $100,000, the
TDD Bonds Beneficiary (i) will promptly repair, rebuild or restore the property damaged or destroyed with such changes, alterations and
modifications (including the substitution and addition of other property) as will not make the Project unsuitable for the Project Purposes,
and (ii) will apply for such purpose so much as may be necessary of any Net Proceeds of insurance policies resulting from claims for such
losses not in excess of $100,000 as well as any additional moneys of the TDD Bonds Beneficiary necessary therefor.


 


Section
6.2. Use of Insurance Proceeds. If prior to full payment of the Bonds (or provision for payment thereof having been made in
accordance with the provisions of the Trust Agreement) and full payment of the State Assistance Amount, the Project shall be
destroyed (in whole or in part) or damaged by fire, flood, windstorm or other casualty to such extent that the claim for loss
resulting from such destruction or damage is in excess of $100,000, the TDD Bonds Beneficiary shall promptly give written notice
thereof to the Director, the Borrower, the Trustee and the TDD Trustee. All Net Proceeds of insurance policies resulting from claims
for such losses in excess of $100,000 shall, so long as the Bonds shall be outstanding, but subject to the provisions of the Senior
Mortgage, be paid to and held by the Trustee in the Collateral Proceeds Account, whereupon, unless the TDD Bonds Beneficiary shall
have elected to exercise its option to prepay all amounts due under this Loan Agreement pursuant to the provisions of Section
10.2(a) of this Loan Agreement, (i) the TDD Bonds Beneficiary shall proceed to repair, rebuild or restore the property damaged or
destroyed with such changes, alterations and modifications (including the substitution and addition of other property) as may be
desired by the TDD Bonds Beneficiary and as will not make the Project unsuitable for the Project Purposes, and (ii) the Trustee will
disburse moneys in the Collateral Proceeds Account to or upon the direction of the TDD Bonds Beneficiary for payment of the costs of
such repair, rebuilding or restoration, either on completion thereof or, if the TDD Bonds Beneficiary shall so request, as the work
progresses. Any such disbursements shall be made pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 3.3 of this Loan Agreement for
disbursement of moneys in the Project Fund, including, but not limited to, the requirement that the TDD Bonds Beneficiary obtain the
written approval of the Director and the approval, or deemed approval, of the Borrower with respect to each disbursement. In the
event the moneys in the Collateral Proceeds Account are not sufficient to pay in full the costs of such repair, rebuilding or
restoration, the TDD Bonds Beneficiary nonetheless shall complete the work and pay the costs thereof from its own resources. The TDD
Bonds Beneficiary shall not, by reason of the payment of such excess costs, be entitled to any reimbursement from the Director or
any diminution in or postponement of the amounts payable under Section 4.3 of this Loan Agreement.


 






    29


     


    

 


Section
6.3. Eminent Domain. In the event that title to or the temporary use of the Project, or any part thereof, shall be taken
under the exercise of the power of eminent domain by any governmental body or by any Person acting under governmental authority,
there shall be no abatement or reduction in the amounts payable by the TDD Bonds Beneficiary under this Loan Agreement, and any Net
Proceeds received from any award made in such eminent domain proceedings shall be paid to and deposited by the Trustee in the
Collateral Proceeds Account and shall be applied by the Director or the TDD Bonds Beneficiary in one or more of the following ways
as shall be directed in writing by the Authorized TDD Bonds Beneficiary Representative:


 


(a)   to
the restoration of the improvements located on the Project Site to substantially the same condition as they existed prior to the exercise
of said power of eminent domain;

and to examine and inspect the Project after, as long as no Event of Default exists, providing reasonable advance notice to the TDD Bonds
Beneficiary (which notice may be given orally). The TDD Bonds Beneficiary further agrees that the Director and the Director’s duly
authorized agents shall have such rights of access to the Project Site and the Project as may be reasonably necessary for the proper maintenance
of the Project in the event of failure by the TDD Bonds Beneficiary to perform its obligations under Section 5.1 hereof; provided that,
the right of access for that purpose shall not impose on the Director or its agents any obligation to perform any obligations of the TDD
Bonds Beneficiary under Section 5.1 hereof.


 


Section 7.3.
Grant of Security Interest. As security for the prompt and complete payment and performance when due of all of the obligations
of the Borrower under this Loan Agreement, the DD Bonds Beneficiary has entered into the Mortgage with respect to the Mortgaged Property

Uniform Commercial Code jurisdiction any initial financing statements and amendments thereto that (a) describe the HOFV Collateral and
(b) provide any other information required by part 5 of Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code of the State, or such other jurisdiction,
for the sufficiency or filing office acceptance of any financing statement or amendment, including whether the TDD Bonds Beneficiary is
an organization, the type of organization and any organizational identification number issued to the TDD Bonds Beneficiary. The TDD Bonds
Beneficiary agrees to furnish any such information to the Director promptly upon the Director’s request. The TDD Bonds Beneficiary
also ratifies its authorization for the Director to have filed in any Uniform Commercial Code jurisdiction any like initial financing
statements or amendments thereto if filed prior to the date hereof. The TDD Bonds Beneficiary shall pay any applicable billing fees and
related expenses. The TDD Bonds Beneficiary hereby further authorizes the Director to file all effective financing statements pursuant

Revenue, including, without limitation, (a) executing, delivering and, where appropriate, filing financing statements and amendments
relating thereto under the Uniform Commercial Code, to the extent, if any, that the Borrower’s signature thereon is required
therefor, (b) causing the Director’s name to be noted as secured party on any certificate of title for a titled good if such
notation is a condition to attachment, perfection or priority of, or ability of the Director to enforce, the Director’s
security interest in the HOFV Collateral, (c) complying with any provision of any statute, regulation or treaty of the United States
as to any HOFV Collateral if compliance with such provision is a condition to attachment, perfection or priority of, or ability of

third party waivers, consents and approvals in form and substance satisfactory to Director and such third parties, including,
without limitation, any consent of any licensor, lessor or other person obligated on HOFV Collateral, and (e) taking all actions
under any earlier versions of the Uniform Commercial Code or under any other law, as reasonably determined by the Director to be
applicable in any relevant Uniform Commercial Code or other jurisdiction, including any foreign jurisdiction.


 


Section 7.4. [Reserved]


 


Section 7.5. [Reserved]


 


Section 7.6.
Information Concerning Operations. The TDD Bonds Beneficiary shall furnish to the Director upon request, but not less frequently
than the annual financial statements to be furnished pursuant to Section 7.7 hereof, a statement certifying (a) the number of employees

Bonds Beneficiary’s employees then employed at the Project Site; (c) the number of employees of the TDD Bonds Beneficiary laid off

(a)   Employment

    32


     


    

 


The Borrower
has represented, relying exclusively upon representations made by the TDD Bonds Beneficiary, that the Loan will permit the TDD Bonds Beneficiary
to create an estimated six new full-time equivalent jobs at the Project Site not later than December 31, 2025 (the “Metric Evaluation
Date”). If the TDD Bonds Beneficiary fails, for reasons other than Market Conditions and Other Factors, to create and retain at
least such aggregate jobs by the Metric Evaluation Date, the Director may exercise any rights and remedies provided for hereunder, including
but not limited to, increasing the interest rate on the outstanding balance of the Loan to a rate equal to 10%. In the event of any such
interest rate increase, the Director shall notify the Borrower, the Trustee, and the TDD Trustee in writing, and any amounts received
representing such interest rate increase shall not be pledged to the Trustee under the Trust Agreement but shall deposited by the Trustee
on behalf of the Director in the Facilities Establishment Fund.


 


The TDD Bonds
Beneficiary shall provide to the Director an annual jobs report in the format required by the Director from time to time, providing information
for the applicable reporting period detailing the number of employees who have been hired and/or retained by the TDD Bonds Beneficiary
at the Project Site. Notwithstanding the terms of this Agreement, the Director has the reasonable discretion to determine compliance,
including but not limited to, whether the TDD Bonds Beneficiary has satisfied the requirements pertaining to the aggregate number of jobs
created and/or the aggregate payroll at the Project Site.


 


(b)   Taxes
and Assessments. Pay and discharge promptly, or cause to be paid and discharged promptly, when due and payable, all taxes, assessments
and governmental charges or levies imposed upon the TDD Bonds Beneficiary, the TDD Bonds Beneficiary’s income or any of the TDD
Bonds Beneficiary’s property, or upon any part thereof, as well as all claims of any kind (including claims for labor, materials
and supplies) which, if unpaid, might by law become a lien or charge upon the TDD Bonds Beneficiary’s property. Notwithstanding
the preceding sentence, the TDD Bonds Beneficiary may, at the TDD Bonds Beneficiary’s expense and after prior written notice to
the Director and the Borrower, by appropriate proceedings diligently prosecuted, contest in good faith the validity or amount of any such
taxes, assessments, governmental charges, levies and claims and during the period of contest, and after notice to the Director, may permit
the items so contested to remain unpaid. However, if at any time the Director shall notify the TDD Bonds Beneficiary in writing that,
in the opinion of legal counsel satisfactory to the Director, by nonpayment of any such items the lien and security interest created by
the Security Documents as to any material part of the Project will be materially affected or the Project or any material part thereof
will be subject to imminent loss or forfeiture, the TDD Bonds Beneficiary shall promptly pay such taxes, assessments, charges, levies
or claims.


 


(c)   Maintain
Existence. Do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect the TDD Bonds Beneficiary’s
existence, except as provided in subsection (a) of Section 7.8, the TDD Bonds Beneficiary’s current ownership and the TDD Bonds
Beneficiary’s material rights and franchises.

Bonds Beneficiary in good repair, working order and condition, normal wear and tear excepted, and from time to time make all
repairs, renewals and replacements which, in the opinion of the TDD Bonds Beneficiary, are necessary and proper so that the business
carried on in connection therewith may be properly and advantageously conducted at all times; provided, however, that nothing in
this subsection shall prevent the TDD Bonds Beneficiary from selling or otherwise disposing of any property whenever, in the good
faith judgment of the TDD Bonds Beneficiary, such property is obsolete, worn out, without economic value or unnecessary for the
conduct of the business of the TDD Bonds Beneficiary and provided, further that the TDD Bonds Beneficiary shall comply with the
Security Documents.


 


(e)   Maintain
Insurance. Keep all of the TDD Bonds Beneficiary’s insurable property insured against loss or damage by fire and other risks,
maintain commercial general liability insurance against claims for personal injury, death, or property damage suffered by others upon,
in or about any premises occupied by the TDD Bonds Beneficiary; and maintain all such workers’ compensation or similar insurance
as may be required under the laws of any state or jurisdiction in which the TDD Bonds Beneficiary may be engaged in business. All insurance
for which provision has been made in this subsection shall be maintained against such risks, in such amounts and with such retentions
and deductibles as such insurance is usually carried by Persons engaged in the same or similar businesses, and, as applicable, with full
replacement cost coverage, and all insurance herein provided for shall be effected and maintained in force under a policy or policies
issued by insurers of recognized responsibility, except that the TDD Bonds Beneficiary may effect worker’s compensation or similar
insurance in respect of operations in any state or other jurisdiction either through an insurance fund operated by such state or other

TDD Bonds Beneficiary to carry on the business which is contemplated in connection with the Project or would materially impair the right
or ability of the TDD Bonds Beneficiary to perform the transactions contemplated by this Loan Agreement, or would materially and adversely
affect the TDD Bonds Beneficiary’s business, operations, properties, assets or condition, or


 


(iii)   the
occurrence of a Reportable Event, as defined in ERISA, under, or the institution of steps by the TDD Bonds Beneficiary to withdraw from,

Uniform Commercial Code or other similar laws in effect;


 


(g)   personally,
or by agent or attorneys, immediately retake possession of the HOFV Collateral or any part thereof, from the TDD Bonds Beneficiary or
any other Person who then has possession of any part thereof with or without notice or process of law, and for that purpose may enter
upon any premises of the TDD Bonds Beneficiary where any of the HOFV Collateral is located and remove the same and use in connection with
such removal any and all services, supplies, aids and other facilities of the TDD Bonds Beneficiary;


 


(h)   sell,
assign or otherwise liquidate, or direct the TDD Bonds Beneficiary to sell, assign or otherwise liquidate, any or all of the HOFV Collateral
or any part thereof, and take possession of the proceeds of any such sale or liquidation; and


 


(i)   take
possession of the HOFV Collateral or any part thereof, by directing the TDD Bonds Beneficiary in writing to deliver the same to the Director
at any place or places designated by the Director, in which event the TDD Bonds Beneficiary, as applicable, shall at its own expense:


 


 (i) forthwith cause the same to be moved to the place or places so designated by the Director and there delivered to the Director;




 


 (ii) store and keep any HOFV Collateral so delivered to the Director at such place or places pending further instruction from the Director, and




 


 (iii) while the HOFV Collateral shall be so stored and kept, provide such guards and maintenance services as shall be necessary to protect the same and to preserve and maintain the HOFV Collateral in good condition;




 


it being understood that the
TDD Bonds Beneficiary’s obligation so to deliver the HOFV Collateral is of the essence of this Loan Agreement and that, accordingly,
upon application to a court of equity having jurisdiction, the Director shall be entitled to a decree requiring specific performance by
the TDD Bonds Beneficiary of said obligation; and


 




    40


     


    

 


(j)   take
whatever action at law or in equity as may appear, in the discretion of the Director, necessary or desirable to collect the amounts then
due and thereafter to become due, or to enforce performance and observance of any obligation, agreement or covenant of the Borrower or
the TDD Bonds Beneficiary under this Loan Agreement.


 


(k)   Any
HOFV Collateral, which is personal property, repossessed by the Director under or pursuant to Section 9.2 hereof and any other HOFV Collateral
whether or not so repossessed by the Director, may be sold, assigned, leased or otherwise disposed of under one or more contracts or as
an entirety, and without the necessity of gathering at the place of sale of the property to be sold, and in general in such manner, at
such time or times, at such place or places and on such terms as the Director may, in compliance with any mandatory requirements of applicable
law, determine to be commercially reasonable. Any of the HOFV Collateral may be sold, leased or otherwise disposed of, in the condition
in which the same existed when taken by the Director or after any overhaul or repair which the Director shall determine to be commercially
reasonable. Any such disposition which shall be a private sale or other private proceedings permitted by such requirements shall be made
upon not less than 10 days’ written notice to the Borrower or the TDD Bonds Beneficiary specifying the time at which such disposition
is to be made and the intended sale price or other consideration therefor, and shall be subject, for the 10 days after the giving of such
notice, to the right of the TDD Bonds Beneficiary, or any nominee of the TDD Bonds Beneficiary to acquire the HOFV Collateral involved
at a price or for such other consideration at least equal to the intended sale price or other consideration so specified. Any such disposition
which shall be a public sale permitted by such requirements shall be made upon not less than 10 days’ written notice to the Borrower
and the TDD Bonds Beneficiary specifying the time and place of such sale and, in the absence of applicable requirements of law, shall
be by public auction (which may, at the Director’s option, be subject to reserve), after publication of notice of such auction not
less than 10 days prior thereto in two newspapers in general circulation in the city where such HOFV Collateral is located. To the extent
permitted by any such requirement of law, the Director may bid for and become the purchaser (by bidding in secured obligations or otherwise)
of the HOFV Collateral or any item thereof, offered for sale in accordance with this Section 9.2 without accountability to the Borrower
or the TDD Bonds Beneficiary. If, under mandatory requirements of applicable law, the Director shall be required to make disposition of
the HOFV Collateral within a period of time which does not permit the giving of notice to the Borrower or the TDD Bonds Beneficiary as
hereinabove specified, the Director need give the Borrower or the TDD Bonds Beneficiary only such notice of disposition as shall be reasonably
practicable in view of such mandatory requirements of applicable law.


 


(l)   Any
amounts collected pursuant to action taken under this Section shall be paid first into the Collateral Proceeds Account and applied in
accordance with the provisions of the Trust Agreement or, if the Bonds have been fully paid (or provision for payment thereof has been
made in accordance with the provisions of the Trust Agreement) then to all other amounts payable thereunder and under the Loan Documents,
and finally, if all such amounts have been fully paid, as directed by the TDD Bonds Beneficiary.


 






    41


     


    

 


Section
9.3. No Remedy Exclusive. No remedy conferred upon or reserved to the Director by this Loan Agreement is intended to be
exclusive of any other available remedy or remedies, but each and every such remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to
every other remedy given under this Loan Agreement, each other Loan Document and any instrument or document collateral thereto or
now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute. No delay or omission to exercise any right or power accruing upon any
default shall impair any such right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver thereof, but any such right and power may be
exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. In order to entitle the Director to exercise any remedy
reserved to it in this Article, it shall not be necessary, unless otherwise required by law or equitable principles, to give any
notice, other than such notice as may be herein expressly provided for herein or required by law.


 


Section 9.4.
Agreement to Pay Attorneys’ Fees and Expenses. If an Event of Default shall occur and the Director or the Trustee shall incur
expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, in connection with the enforcement of this Loan Agreement or any of the other Loan
Documents or any instrument or document collateral thereto or the collection of sums due thereunder, the Borrower, subject to Section
11.4 hereof or the TDD Bonds Beneficiary, as applicable, shall reimburse the Director or the Trustee, as applicable, for the expenses
so incurred upon demand. If any such expenses are not so reimbursed, the amount thereof, together with interest thereon from the date
of demand for payment, to the extent permitted by law, at the Interest Rate for Advances, and shall, to the extent permitted by law, constitute
additional indebtedness secured hereby and by the Trust Agreement and the Loan Documents, and in any action brought to collect such indebtedness
or enforce the Loan Documents, the Director shall be entitled to seek the recovery, to the extent permitted by law, of such expenses in
such action.


 


Section 9.5.
No Additional Waiver Implied by One Waiver. No failure by the Director to insist upon the strict performance by the Borrower or
the TDD Bonds Beneficiary of any provision hereof shall constitute a waiver of the Director’s right to strict performance and no
express waiver shall be deemed to apply to any other existing or subsequent right to remedy the failure by the Borrower or the TDD Bonds
Beneficiary to observe or comply with any provision hereof.


 


Section 9.6.
Waiver of Appraisement, Valuation, Etc. In the event the Borrower or the TDD Bonds Beneficiary should default under any of the
provisions of this Loan Agreement, the Borrower or the TDD Bonds Beneficiary, as applicable, agrees to waive, to the extent it may lawfully
do so, the benefit of all appraisement, valuation, stay, extension or redemption laws now or hereafter in force, and all right of appraisement
and redemption to which it may be entitled.
