Agencies in connection with a Securitization does not rate the issuer or security in question, then such requirement hereunder shall nevertheless be deemed satisfied so long as such Rating Agency has issued a Rating Confirmation with respect
thereto. For purposes of any representation, warranty or covenant herein relating to Operating Lessee, including without limitation Section 4.1(bb) hereof, all defined terms and sections used in or referred to therein or in any defined terms used

 ARTICLE II 
  
 GENERAL 
  
 Section 2.1. The Loan. 
  
 2.1.1
Commitment. Each of the parties hereto agrees and acknowledges that the Borrowers received the proceeds of the Loan on the Closing Date and that the Loan shall mature on the Maturity Date. Each Borrower hereby confirms its acceptance of the
Loan, subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth herein. 
  

 41 








 2.1.2 Disbursement to Borrowers and Use of Loan Proceeds. Borrowers are permitted to request and
receive only one disbursement hereunder in respect of the Loan, which disbursement was made on the Closing Date. The parties hereto acknowledge that, on the Closing Date, Borrowers received the proceeds of the Loan in an aggregate principal amount
equal to the Loan Amount, subject to payment from Loan proceeds of the Lender Expenses and subject to funding from Loan proceeds of (i) the Tax and Insurance Escrow Account and Tax and Insurance Sub-Account, (ii) the Deferred Maintenance and
Environmental Reserve Account, (iii) the FF&E Reserve Account, and (iv) Stub Interest (covering the period ending April 14, 2005), which have been escrowed with Lender, all in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. Any amount borrowed
and repaid hereunder in respect of the Loan may not be reborrowed. 
  
 2.1.3 The Notes. (a) The Loan shall be evidenced by the Notes, in the aggregate original principal amount of the Loan Amount. Each Note shall bear interest at its Applicable Interest Rate through and including the Interest Accrual
Period in which occurs the Maturity Date. The Notes shall be subject to repayment as provided in Section 2.3 hereof, shall be entitled to the benefits of this Agreement and shall be secured by a Mortgage granting a first mortgage Lien on each
Property and by certain of the other Loan Documents. 
  
 (b) The
Borrower shall maintain, or cause to be maintained, a register (the “Register”) at the address to which notices to the Borrower are to be sent hereunder, on which it shall enter the name or names of the registered owner or owners
from time to time of the Notes. The Notes (or, if applicable, each Note) may be independently assigned or otherwise transferred in whole or in part (including, without limitation, the sale of any participation interests in the Notes by Lender) by
registration of such assignment or transfer on the Register (and the Notes shall expressly so provide). Any assignment or transfer on the Register (and the Notes evidencing the same) may be effected by registration of such assignment or transfer on
the Register. At the request of Lender or any designated assignee or transferee of any of the Notes, Borrowers shall (i) issue to Lender or the designated assignee or transferee one or more new Notes in the same aggregate principal amount of the
Notes (which Notes may contain components and/or subcomponents of the debt evidenced by such Notes) so assigned or transferred upon delivery to Borrowers of the Notes so assigned or transferred and (ii) reasonably cooperate with Lender in connection
with Lender’s assignment of any interest in the Loan. The Register shall be available for inspection by Lender at any reasonable time upon reasonable prior notice. 
  
 (c) Borrower agrees that it shall, upon request, reasonably cooperate with Lender in connection with any request by Lender
to sever the Note into two (2) or more separate substitute notes in an aggregate principal amount equal to the Loan Amount and to reapportion the Loan among such separate substitute notes, including, without limitation, by executing and delivering
to Lender new substitute notes to replace the Note, amendments to or replacements of existing Loan Documents to reflect such severance and/or legal opinions with respect to such substitute notes, amendments and/or replacements. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Borrower shall not be required to incur any post-closing costs or expenses relating to the severance of the Note, other than Borrower’s internal costs and expenses and the fees and disbursements of Borrower’s counsel with
respect to the issuance of a new enforceability opinion in connection with any such substitute notes. Any such substitute notes may as among themselves be pari 

  

 42 








 
passu, senior and subordinate and/or otherwise have varying principal amounts and economic terms, provided, however, that, subject to the effect of any
prepayments of such substitute notes after an Event of Default, (i) the weighted average spread applicable to the substitutes notes shall not exceed the Spread, (ii) the economics of the Loan (or severed portions thereof) and other terms of the
Loan, taken as a whole, shall not be modified by such fractionalization in a manner which is in any material respect adverse to Borrower (except any increase in the weighted average spread applicable to the substitute notes that may result after
prepayments of the Loan have been made after an Event of Default) and (iii) subject only to the terms of Section 2.3.2(ii) hereof regarding a Directed Paydown, all voluntary principal prepayments shall be applied ratably among the securities
issued in connection with a Securitization and any other interests in the Loan held outside the Securitization. 
  
 (d) Borrower agrees that, if requested by Lender prior to, or in connection with, a Securitization, the Borrower shall take all actions as are necessary
to effect the “resizing” of the Loan and one or more of the Mezzanine Loans, including any new mezzanine loans that Lender requires Borrower to enter into (provided the documents evidencing and securing such new loan(s) are substantially
identical in form and substance to the Mezzanine Loan Documents); and provided further that Lender is then the holder of such Mezzanine Loans and/or the Loan. In such event, Borrower and Lender agree that if the principal amount of any Mezzanine
Loan were to be increased (or a new mezzanine loan or loans are created) and, as a result, the principal amount of the Loan were decreased, (i) the Borrower shall cause the borrowers under the Mezzanine Loans and any such new mezzanine loan(s) to
comply with its agreements to effect a “resizing”, and (ii) Lender, as holder of the applicable promissory note(s), shall on the date of the “resizing” of the Loan lend to the borrower under the applicable Mezzanine Loan(s) or
new mezzanine loan(s) (by way of a reallocation of the principal amount of the Loan and the applicable Mezzanine Loan or new mezzanine loan(s)) such additional amount equal to the amount of the principal increase/reduction of the Loan provided that
Borrower and applicable borrower(s) under the Mezzanine Loan(s) execute and deliver any and all necessary amendments or modifications to the Loan Documents, organizational documents (including the creation of a new mezzanine borrower or borrowers)
and the applicable Mezzanine Loan Documents. In addition, Borrower and Lender agree that if the principal amount of any Mezzanine Loan were to be decreased and, as a result, the Loan Amount were increased, then (i) if “resizing” to
decrease the size of the applicable Mezzanine Loan and increase the size of the Loan, each of them shall take all actions as are necessary to effect the “resizing” of the Loan and the applicable Mezzanine Loan(s), (ii) Borrower shall cause
the applicable borrower(s) under the Mezzanine Loan(s) to comply with its agreements to effect a “resizing” and (iii) Lender, as holder of the applicable promissory note(s), shall on the date of the “resizing” of the Loan lend to
the Borrower (by way of a reallocation of the principal amount of the Loan and the applicable Mezzanine Loan(s) an additional amount equal to the amount of principal reduction of the applicable Mezzanine Loan(s), provided that Borrower and
applicable Mezzanine Borrower(s) and any new mezzanine borrowers execute and deliver any and all necessary modifications to the Loan Documents and the applicable Mezzanine Loan Documents. In connection with the foregoing, Borrower agrees, at
Lender’s sole cost and expense, to execute and deliver such documents and other agreements reasonably required by Lender, as holder of the applicable promissory note(s), to “re-size” the Loan and the applicable Mezzanine Loan(s),
including, without limitation, an amendment to this Agreement, the Note, the Mortgage, the other Loan Documents and the applicable Mezzanine Loan Documents, an endorsement to the Title Policy reflecting any increase in the insured 

  

 43 








 
amount thereunder (if applicable), an amendment to or replacement of the Rate Cap Agreement for the Loan and each applicable Mezzanine Loan which is being
resized reflecting the appropriate modification to the notional amount thereunder, and an endorsement to the UCC title policies and, if applicable, mezzanine endorsements and related title letters, for each Mezzanine Loan which is being resized,
reflecting the appropriate modification to the insured amount thereunder. Lender agrees to reimburse Borrower for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorney’s fees) incurred by Borrower
in connection with any “resizing” of the Loan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender agrees that any “resizing” of the Loan shall not change the economics of the Loan and the Mezzanine Loans taken as a whole in a manner which is
in any material respect adverse to Borrower or any Mezzanine Borrower. 
  
 Section 2.2. Interest. 
  
 2.2.1 Generally.
Interest on the Notes shall accrue at the Applicable Interest Rate and shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year and charged for the actual number of days elapsed in the Interest Accrual Period in question; provided, however,
that, after any Securitization, interest on the Notes referenced in Section 2.1.3(c) shall accrue at a rate described in such Notes which rate shall be consistent, and determined in accordance, with the provisions of such Section. 

 
 2.2.2 Determination of Interest Rate. 
  
 (a) The rate or rates at which the outstanding principal amount of the Notes
bears interest from time to time shall be referred to as the “Applicable Interest Rate”. The Applicable Interest Rate with respect to the Notes shall be LIBOR plus the applicable Spread with respect to each applicable Interest
Accrual Period. 
  
 (b) Interest shall be charged and payable on
the outstanding principal amount of the Notes at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Interest Rate, but in no event to exceed the maximum rate permitted under applicable law. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 2.2.2,
Borrowers shall pay interest on the outstanding principal amount of the Notes at the Applicable Interest Rate for the applicable Interest Accrual Period. Each determination by Lender of the Applicable Interest Rate shall be conclusive and binding
for all purposes, absent manifest error. Borrower hereby agrees that at any time prior to a Securitization and provided that there is no material adverse economic impact on Borrower, Lender may change the Interest Accrual Period upon ten (10) days
prior written notice to Borrower. 
  
 (c) If, at any time prior to
the completion of the first Securitization of the Loan, as a result of any Regulatory Change: 
  
 (i) the basis of taxation of payments to Lender of the principal of or interest on the Loan is changed or Lender or the Person controlling
Lender shall be subject to any tax, duty, charge or withholding of any kind with respect to this Agreement (excluding federal taxation of the overall net income of Lender); or 
  
 (ii) any reserve, special deposit or similar requirements (other than such requirements as are taken into
account in determining LIBOR) relating to any 

  

 44 








 
extensions of credit or other assets of, or any deposits with or other liabilities of Lender is imposed, modified or deemed applicable to Lender; or

  
 (iii) any other condition affecting the Loan
is imposed on Lender; 
  
 and Lender or any Person controlling Lender reasonably
determines that, by reason thereof, the cost to Lender or any Person controlling Lender of maintaining or extending the Loan is increased, or any amount receivable by Lender or any Person controlling Lender hereunder in respect of any portion of the
Loan is reduced, in each case by an amount deemed by Lender to be material (such increases in cost and reductions in amounts receivable being herein called “Increased Costs”), then Borrowers shall pay to Lender such additional
amount or amounts as will compensate Lender or any Person controlling Lender for such Increased Costs to the extent Lender reasonably determines that such Increased Costs are allocable to the Loan. Lender will notify Borrowers of any event occurring
after the date hereof which will entitle Lender to compensation pursuant to this subsection (c) as promptly as practicable after it obtains knowledge thereof and determines to request such compensation; provided, however, that,
if Lender fails to deliver a notice within 180 days after the date on which an officer of Lender responsible for overseeing this Agreement knows or has reason to know of its right to additional compensation under this Section 2.2.2(c), Lender
shall only be entitled to additional compensation for any such Increased Costs incurred from and after the date that is 180 days prior to the date Borrowers received such notice. If Lender requests compensation under this Section 2.2.2(c),
Borrowers may, by notice to Lender, require that (i) Lender furnish to Borrowers a reasonably detailed statement setting forth the basis for requesting such compensation and the method for determining the amount thereof; and/or (ii) the interest
rate on the Loan be converted from the then applicable rate to the Prime Rate plus the Spread. 
  
 (d) (i) At all times, for all amounts payable that accrue during periods prior to the first Securitization of the Loan, Borrowers shall, to the extent permitted by law, make all payments hereunder free and clear of
and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, or any liabilities with respect thereto, including those arising after the date hereof as a result of the adoption of or any change
in law, treaty, rule, regulation, guideline or determination of a Governmental Authority or any change in the interpretation or application thereof by a Governmental Authority but excluding, in the case of the Lender, such taxes (including income
taxes, franchise taxes and branch profit taxes) as are imposed on or measured by Lender’s net income by the United States of America or any Governmental Authority of the jurisdiction under the laws of which Lender is organized or maintains a
lending office (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deduction, charges, withholdings and liabilities with respect thereto which Lender determines to be applicable to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the Loan being hereinafter
referred to as “U.S. Taxes”). If, at any time prior to the first Securitization of the Loan, the Borrowers shall be required by law to deduct any U.S. Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under any other Loan
Document to Lender, (A) the sum payable shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.2.2(d)) the Lender receives an amount
equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (B) the Borrowers shall make such deductions, and (C) the Borrowers shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable
law. If a withholding tax of the United 

  

 45 








 
States of America or any other Governmental Authority shall be or become applicable after the date of this Agreement, to such payments by the Borrowers made
to the lending office or any other office, Lender shall use reasonable efforts to make, fund and maintain its Loan through another lending office of Lender in another jurisdiction so as to reduce the Borrowers’ liability hereunder, if the
making, funding or maintenance of such Loan through Lender’s such other lending office does not, in the judgment of Lender, otherwise adversely affect the Loan. 
  
 (ii) In addition, for all amounts payable that accrue during periods prior to the first Securitization of
the Loan, each Borrower agrees to pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or other excise or property taxes, charges, or similar levies which arise from any payment made hereunder, or from the execution, delivery or registration of, or
otherwise with respect to, this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, or the Loan (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”). 
  
 (iii) The Borrowers shall indemnify Lender for all periods prior to the first Securitization of the Loan for the full amount of U.S. Taxes
and Other Taxes (including any U.S. Taxes or Other Taxes imposed by any Governmental Authority on amounts payable under this Section 2.2.2(d)) paid by Lender and any liability (including penalties, interest, and expenses) arising therefrom or
with respect thereto, whether or not such U.S. Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. This indemnification shall be made within thirty (30) days after the date Lender makes written demand therefore. 
  
 (iv) Without prejudice to the survival of any other
agreement of the Borrowers and Lender hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Borrowers contained in Section 2.2.2(c) and this Section 2.2.2(d)) shall survive the payment in full of principal and interest hereunder, and the
termination of this Agreement. 
  
 (v) Prior to
the first Securitization of the Loan, if Lender or any of its successors or assigns is a foreign person (i.e., a person other than a United States person for United States federal income tax purposes), Lender shall: 
  
 (1) not later than the Closing Date (or, in the case of a
successor or assign of Lender, the date such successor or assign becomes a successor or assign) deliver to Borrowers one accurate and complete signed original of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8 ECI or any successor form (“Form W-8
ECI”), or one accurate and complete signed original of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8 BEN or any successor form (“Form W-8 BEN”), as appropriate, in each case indicating that Lender (or such successor or assign, as
applicable) is on the date of delivery thereof entitled to receive payments of principal, interest and fees under this Agreement free from withholding of United States federal income tax; 
  
 (2) if at any time it makes any changes necessitating a new
Form W-8 ECI or Form W-8 BEN, with reasonable promptness deliver to Borrowers in replacement for, or in addition to, the forms 

  

 46 








 
previously delivered by it hereunder, one accurate and complete signed original of Form W-8 ECI or Form W-8 BEN, as appropriate, in each case indicating that
it is on the date of delivery thereof entitled to receive payments of principal, interest and fees under this Agreement free from withholding of United States federal income tax; and 
  
 (3) promptly upon Borrowers’ reasonable request to that effect, deliver to Borrowers such other forms
or similar documentation as may be required from time to time by applicable law, treaty, rule or regulation in order to establish its tax status for United States federal tax withholding purposes. 
  
 (vi) Borrowers will not be required to pay any additional
amounts in respect of United States federal income tax pursuant to this Section 2.2.2(d) to Lender if the obligation to pay such additional amounts would not have arisen but for a failure by Lender to comply with its obligations under
Section 2.2.2(d)(v) above. 
  
 (e) Without limiting the
effect of subsection (c) or (d) above, prior to the first Securitization of the Loan, in the event that, (i) by reason of any Regulatory Change, Lender incurs Increased Costs based on or measured by the excess above a specified level
of the amount of a category of deposits or other liabilities of Lender, which includes deposits by reference to which LIBOR is determined, (ii) Lender shall have determined in good faith after reasonable investigation that U.S. dollar deposits in
the principal amount of the Loan are not generally available in the London interbank market, (iii) reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Applicable Interest Rate, (iv) Lender ascertains that LIBOR determined or to be determined for any
Interest Accrual Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to Lender of making or maintaining the Loan during such Interest Accrual Period, or (v) maintenance of any portions of the Loan made by Lender at LIBOR at any suitable lending
office would violate any applicable law, rule, regulation or directive, whether or not having the force of law, then, if Lender so elects by notice to Borrowers, the interest rate applicable to the then outstanding principal balance of the Loan
shall be converted to the Prime Rate plus the Spread. 
  
 (f)
Lender shall use reasonable good faith efforts to avoid or mitigate any increased cost, reduced receivable or suspension of the availability of LIBOR under Section 2.2.2(c), (d) or (e) to the greatest extent practicable
(including transferring the Loan to another lending office or Affiliate of Lender and reasonably assisting Borrowers’ recovery of any tax payment made by it) unless, in the opinion of Lender, such efforts would be likely to have any material
adverse effect upon it. 
  
 (g) In the event that Lender makes a
request to the Borrowers for compensation in accordance with Section 2.2.2(c), (d) or (e), then, provided that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at such time, the Borrowers may at their option, request that
Lender use its reasonable efforts (consistent with legal and regulatory restrictions) to avoid the need for paying such compensation or such inability, including changing the jurisdiction of its applicable lender office; provided, however,
that the taking of such action would not, in the sole judgment of such Lender, be disadvantageous to such Lender. 
  

 47 








 2.2.3 Default Rate. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing (including the
failure of Borrowers to make a payment of principal or interest on the Payment Date therefor), Borrowers shall pay interest at the Default Rate on the outstanding amount of the Loan and due but unpaid interest thereon, upon demand from time to time
(which interest is payable both before and after Lender has obtained a judgment with respect to the Loan), to the extent permitted by applicable law. Payment or acceptance of the increased rates provided for in this subsection is not a permitted
alternative to timely payment or full performance by Borrowers and shall not constitute a waiver of any Default or Event of Default or an amendment to this Agreement or any other Loan Document and shall not otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or
remedies of Lender. 
  
 Section 2.3. Loan Repayment.

  
 2.3.1 Payments at Closing. On the Closing Date,
Borrowers paid an installment of interest in an amount equal to Stub Interest as provided in Section 2.1.2(iv). 
  
 2.3.2 Monthly Debt Service Payments. 
  
 (i) Interest Payments: Commencing with the Initial Payment Date, and on each and every Payment Date thereafter until but excluding
the Maturity Date, Borrowers shall pay Lender interest at the Applicable Interest Rate for and through the end of the applicable Interest Accrual Period on the outstanding principal balance of the Loan as computed in accordance with Section
2.2.2 hereof (the “Monthly Debt Service Payment Amount”). 
  
 (ii) Directed Paydown Payments: From and after the Permitted Prepayment Date, Borrowers shall have a one-time right to make a
partial prepayment without a release of any collateral securing the Loan to be applied to reduce the principal balance of the Loan (a “Directed Paydown”); provided, however, Borrowers’ rights to make a Directed Paydown
are contingent upon (i) first, Second Mezzanine Borrowers simultaneously prepaying the Second Mezzanine Loan in full in accordance with the Second Mezzanine Loan Agreement and otherwise complying with the provisions of Section 2.4.2(C) of the
Second Mezzanine Loan Agreement (together with payment by Second Mezzanine Borrower to Second Mezzanine Lender of the Mezzanine Loan Prepayment Fee (as defined in the Second Mezzanine Loan Agreement)) and (ii) second, First Mezzanine Borrowers
simultaneously prepaying the First Mezzanine Loan in full in accordance with the First Mezzanine Loan Agreement and otherwise complying with the provisions of Section 2.4.2(C) of the First Mezzanine Loan Agreement (together with payment by
First Mezzanine Borrower to First Mezzanine Lender of the Mezzanine Loan Prepayment Fee (as defined in the First Mezzanine Loan Agreement)) and (ii) payment to Lender by Borrowers of the Directed Paydown Prepayment Fee on the date of prepayment.

  
 2.3.3 Payment on Maturity Date. (a) Borrowers shall
repay any outstanding principal indebtedness of the Loan in full on the Maturity Date of the Loan, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon through the end of the Interest Accrual Period during which such Maturity Date occurs (even if
such period extends beyond the Maturity Date) and all other 

  

 48 








 
amounts which are then due and payable to Lender hereunder or under the Notes, the Mortgage, and the other Loan Documents. 
  
 (b) The “Maturity Date” of the Loan shall initially be the
Initial Maturity Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrowers shall have three successive options to extend the Initial Maturity Date of the Loan. The scheduled Maturity Date if (a) one such option is exercised shall be the Payment Date in
April 2008, (b) two such options are exercised shall be the Payment Date in April 2009, and (c) three such options are exercised shall be the Payment Date in April 2010. In order to exercise any such extension right, Borrowers shall deliver to
Lender notice of such extension at least thirty (30) days, but not more than 120 days, prior to the Maturity Date as in effect immediately prior to such extension (the Maturity Date, as so in effect, is hereinafter referred to as the
“Extension Date” applicable to such extension), and the following conditions must be satisfied as of the Extension Date applicable to the corresponding extension: (i) no Event of Default (including, without limitation, an Event of
Default of the type described in Article 10(a)(i) shall then be continuing; (ii) Borrowers shall have obtained an Extension Interest Rate Cap Agreement for the First, Second or Third Extension Term, as applicable, and collaterally assigned such
Extension Interest Rate Cap Agreement to Lender in accordance with Section 2.7; (iii) the Mezzanine Loans shall be simultaneously extended in accordance with the terms of the Mezzanine Loan Agreements for the same period that the Loan is
extended; and (iv) Borrowers shall have paid (A) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Lender (and, if applicable, any servicer in connection with a Securitization) up to an aggregate total of $10,000, and (B) the actual expenses
incurred by each of the Rating Agencies, in each case, in connection with Borrowers’ exercise of such extension option. Upon the giving of each notice of extension hereunder, and subject to the conditions set forth below in this Section
2.3.3, the Maturity Date as theretofore in effect will be extended to the respective Payment Date specified above (the first, second and third such extension periods are hereinafter respectively referred to as the “First Extension
Term”, the “Second Extension Term” and the “Third Extension Term”). If Borrowers fail to exercise any extension option in accordance with the provisions hereof, such extension option, and any subsequent
extension option hereunder, will automatically cease and terminate. 
  
 2.3.4 Making of Payments. Each payment by Borrowers hereunder or under the Notes shall be made in funds settled through the New York Clearing House Interbank Payments System or other funds immediately available to Lender by 11:00
a.m. New York City time, on the date such payment is due and shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America by wire transfer in federal or other immediately available funds to the Deposit Account, or such other account pursuant to
such other wiring instructions as provided by Lender. Any funds received by Lender after such time shall, for all purposes hereof, be deemed to have been paid on the next succeeding Business Day. Lender shall notify Borrowers in writing of any
changes in the account to which payments are to be made. Except as otherwise provided herein, whenever any payment hereunder or under the Notes shall be stated to be due on a day which is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the first
Business Day immediately prior thereto. 
  
 2.3.5 Intentionally
Deleted. 
  
 2.3.6 Intentionally Deleted.

  

 49 








 2.3.7 No Setoffs. All amounts due hereunder or under the Notes or the other Loan Documents shall
be payable without setoff, counterclaim or any other deduction whatsoever. 
  
 2.3.8 Loan Account. Lender shall maintain a loan account on its books in the name of Borrowers in which will be recorded the Loan and all payments and prepayments of principal of and interest on the Loan
(provided that any error in such loan account shall not in any manner affect the obligations of Borrowers to repay the Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents). In addition to the rights of
Borrowers to have informational computer access to the Deposit Account, the Holding Account, the Tax and Insurance Escrow Account and any other Reserve Accounts, Lender shall, upon the written request of Borrowers, not more often than monthly,
provide such information as it has in its possession regarding the records maintained in accordance with the first sentence hereof and information regarding funds on deposit in the Holding Account. In addition, Lender shall provide (or shall direct
any servicer in connection with a Securitization to provide) to Borrowers, within five (5) Business Days of the end of each month, monthly reports showing deposits into and disbursements, transfers or credits, as the case may be, from the Tax and
Insurance Escrow Account and each other Reserve Account, and setting forth, as of the end of each month, a schedule of the Permitted Investments contained in each such account and schedules of all transactions involving Permitted Investments during
the month. 
  
 Section 2.4. Prepayment. 
  
 2.4.1 No Prepayment. Other than as set forth in Section
2.3.2(ii) above or in Sections 2.4.2 and 10.1(d) below, or as required or permitted pursuant hereto in connection with a Casualty or Condemnation, Borrowers shall have no right to prepay all or any portion of the Loan prior to the
Permitted Prepayment Date. 
  
 2.4.2 Permitted Prepayment.
A. From and after the Permitted Prepayment Date and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 2.4.2, the Borrowers may prepay the Loan at any time in whole or in part (hereinafter, a “Prepayment”),
provided that (a) the Borrowers shall provide not less than 30 days’ and not more than 120 days’ prior written notice (a “Prepayment Notice”) to Lender specifying the date on which the Prepayment is scheduled to occur and
such scheduled payment date shall not be on any date during the two (2) Business Day period prior to the fifteenth (15th) calendar day of such month, but not including, the fifteenth (15th) calendar day of such month
(such scheduled date, the “Prepayment Date”), which notice shall indicate the principal amount of the Notes to be so prepaid and the specific Property to be released from the Lien of the Loan Documents pursuant to such Prepayment,
(b) the Borrowers shall have paid Debt Service (i.e., accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount being repaid) upon making such Prepayment through the end of the Interest Accrual Period in which the Prepayment is to occur (even if such
period extends beyond the scheduled prepayment date), (c) the Borrower shall pay the Prepayment Fee upon making such Prepayment and (d) simultaneously with the Prepayment of the Loan, each Mezzanine Loan shall be prepaid by the applicable Mezzanine
Borrower in accordance with Section 2.4.2 of the applicable Mezzanine Loan Agreement in an amount equal to the product of (i) the principal amount of the applicable Prepayment of the Loan, times (ii) the ratio of (A) the principal balance of the
applicable Mezzanine Loan immediately prior to such Prepayment, to (B) the principal balance of the Loan 

  

 50 








 
immediately prior to such Prepayment. It is the intention and agreement of the parties that, subject to the requirements and limitations set forth in the
previous sentence, any Property may, from and after the Permitted Prepayment Date, be the subject of a Prepayment and simultaneous release of the Liens of the Loan Documents; provided (i) the amount of the Prepayment equals or exceeds the Release
Amount for the Property, and (ii) the provisions of Section 2.5.2 are complied with. On the Prepayment Date, Borrowers shall pay to Lender the amount of the Prepayment specified in the notice, all accrued and unpaid interest on the principal
balance of the Notes being so repaid through and including the date that is the last day of the Interest Accrual Period in which such Prepayment occurs, all other sums then due under the Notes, this Agreement, the applicable Mortgage and the other
Loan Documents, and all reasonable costs and expenses of Lender incurred in connection with the Prepayment, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements. Lender shall not be obligated to accept any Prepayment of the principal balance
of the Notes, or any portion thereof, unless it is accompanied by the prepayment consideration due in connection therewith pursuant to the terms hereof. 
  
 B. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if a Prepayment Notice has been sent in good faith and no Event of Default is then continuing, such
Prepayment Notice may be rescinded or deferred by Borrowers upon delivery of written notice to Lender (specifying, in the case of a deferral, the new Prepayment Date for such Prepayment) at least five Business Days prior to the Prepayment Date
specified in the applicable Prepayment Notice (provided that Borrowers shall compensate Lender for any and all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Lender and/or its agents resulting from such rescission or deferral).

 (d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, provided no
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, at Borrowers’ request and at Borrowers’ sole cost and expense, in lieu of applying any monies as a prepayment of the Loan along with a release of the Lien of the Mortgage and the other Loan
Documents with respect to any Property released in accordance with the terms hereof from and after the Permitted Prepayment Date, Lender agrees that it shall, in consideration of an amount equal to the Release Amount for such Property and any

in connection with the transfer of the applicable individual Property, in lieu of prepaying the Loan and the Mezzanine Loans (pro rata in accordance with the
outstanding principal amount of the Loan and the Mezzanine Loans immediately prior to such release pursuant to Section 2.4.2) with the Excess Sales Proceeds, Borrower and Mezzanine Borrowers may elect to deposit the Excess Sales Proceeds (pro
rata in accordance with the outstanding principal amount of the Loan and the Mezzanine Loans immediately prior to such release) into a segregated cash collateral account that is pledged to Lender as additional collateral for the Debt (the
“Cash Collateral Account”) and a segregated cash collateral account for each Mezzanine Loan that is pledged to the applicable Mezzanine Lender as additional collateral for such Mezzanine Lender’s Mezzanine Loan. Borrower shall
pledge the Cash Collateral Account to Lender pursuant to a deposit account agreement substantially in the form of the Deposit Account Agreement delivered on the Closing Date, which will provide that the Cash Collateral Account and all funds at any
time on deposit therein will be subject to the exclusive control of Lender, except that Borrower will have the right prior to an Event of Default to direct Lender to apply funds on deposit in the Cash Collateral Account to repay the principal
balance of the Loan. Lender acknowledges and agrees that the Mezzanine Borrowers will have the right in accordance with the Mezzanine Loan Agreements to direct the Mezzanine Lenders to apply funds on deposit in the cash collateral accounts with
respect to each Mezzanine Loan to prepay the principal balance of the applicable Mezzanine Loan.

release to be effected in accordance with the terms hereof, Lender (and any servicer in connection with a Securitization) shall remain obligated to execute and deliver, at the expense of the Borrowers, such further Release Instruments as Borrowers
may reasonably request and submit to Lender, together with an Officer’s Certificate covering the matters to be covered in the Officer’s Certificate described in Section 2.5.2(b).

products and proceeds of any of the foregoing. Borrowers shall deliver to Lender an executed counterpart of such Interest Rate Cap Agreement, Replacement Interest Rate Cap Agreement or Extension Interest Rate Cap Agreement (which shall, by its
terms, authorize the assignment to Lender and require that payments be made directly to Lender) and notify the Counterparty of such assignment (either in such Interest Rate Cap Agreement, Replacement Interest Rate Cap Agreement or Extension Interest
Rate Cap Agreement or by separate instrument). No Borrower shall, without obtaining the prior written consent of Lender, further pledge, transfer, deliver, assign or grant any security interest in the Interest Rate Cap Agreement (or, when and if any

any of its properties or assets pursuant to the terms of any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, License, partnership agreement, Property Management Agreement, Operating Lease or other Material Agreement to which it is a party or to

as indicated in and insured over by a Qualified Title Insurance Policy issued as of the Closing Date, there are no claims for payment for work, labor or materials affecting any Property which are or may become a lien prior to, or of equal priority
with, the Liens created by the Loan Documents (other than mechanics’ or materialmen’s liens for work or materials performed or supplied the costs for which are not yet past due or which are being contested in accordance with Section
5.1(b)(ii) hereof). Nothing in this paragraph may be relied on by the title insurance company issuing a policy covering any Property. Each Assignment of Leases, when properly recorded in the appropriate records, creates a valid first priority
assignment of, or a valid first priority security interest in, certain rights under the related Leases and the Rents, subject only to the terms of such Assignments of Leases, including a license granted to the applicable Borrower or Operating Lessee
to exercise certain rights and to perform certain obligations of the lessor under such Leases, including the right to operate the applicable Property. Except as set forth in the Property Management Agreements, no Person other than the applicable
Borrower and/or Operating Lessee owns any interest in any payments due under such Leases that is superior to or of equal priority with the Lender’s interest therein. 
  
 (g) No Bankruptcy Filing. Each of Borrower and Operating Lessee is not contemplating either the filing of a petition
by it under any state or federal bankruptcy or 

  

 62 








 
insolvency laws or the liquidation of its assets or property, and it has no knowledge of any Person contemplating the filing of any such petition against it.

  
 (h) Intentionally Omitted. 
  
 (i) No Plan Assets. It is not an Employee Benefit Plan subject to
Title I of ERISA, and none of its assets constitutes or will constitute Plan Assets. 
  
 (j) Compliance. Except as set forth on Schedule 6.1(g), each of Borrower and Operating Lessee and each Property and the use thereof comply in all material respects with all applicable Legal Requirements,
including building and zoning ordinances and codes. Except as set forth on Schedule 6.1(g), each Property is not a non-conforming use or legal non-conforming use (except to the extent that the same would not affect in any material respect the
operation, maintenance, value or use of the Property in question or the ability to reconstruct such Property). Each of Borrower and Operating Lessee is not in default or violation of any order, writ, injunction, decree or demand of any Governmental
Authority (including laws and regulations concerning facility licensing and operation and certificate of need), the violation of which could have a Material Adverse Effect. There has not been committed by or on behalf of each of Borrower and
Operating Lessee or, to the best of its knowledge, any other person in occupancy of or involved with the operation or use of any Property any act or omission affording the federal government or any state or local government the right of forfeiture
as against any Property or any part thereof or any monies paid in performance of its obligations under any of the Loan Documents. Each of Borrower and Operating Lessee hereby covenants and agrees not to commit, and to use all reasonable efforts not
to permit or suffer to exist any act or omission affording such right of forfeiture. 
  
 (k) Contracts. Except as disclosed in Schedule F, there are no Material Agreements. Each contract, other than the Operating Lease, affecting each Property has been entered into at arm’s length in
the ordinary course of business by or on behalf of the applicable Borrower or its predecessors in interest and provides for the payment of fees in amounts and upon terms not less favorable to the applicable Borrower than market rates and terms.

  
 (l) Financial Information. All financial statements
described in Schedule 3.1(o) were prepared by or on behalf of Borrowers and delivered to Lender prior to the date hereof, (i) are true, complete and correct in all material respects, to the extent not subsequently corrected in a written document
delivered to Lender, (ii) accurately represent in all respects the financial condition or operating results, as applicable, of the Properties and/or the Borrowers as of the date of such reports, and (iii) to the extent that such financial statements
are audited financial statements, such financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP with respect to the accounts presented therein. Borrowers do not have any material contingent liabilities, liabilities for taxes, unusual forward
or long-term commitments or unrealized or anticipated losses from any unfavorable commitments, that are known to it and reasonably likely to have a materially adverse effect on any Property or the operation thereof, except as referred to or
reflected in said financial statements and operating statements and except for other contingent liabilities not prohibited by Section 6.1(h) hereof. Except as set forth in the certified information delivered to Lender pursuant to Section
3.1(o) hereof, since the Closing Date, there has been no change in the financial condition, operations or business of Borrowers from that set forth in said 

  

 63 








 
financial statements and operating statements that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
  
 (m) Condemnation. No Condemnation or other proceeding has been
commenced or, to its best knowledge, is contemplated with respect to all or any portion of any Property or for the relocation of roadways providing access to any Property. 
  
 (n) Federal Reserve Regulations. No part of the proceeds of the Loan will be used for the purpose of purchasing or
acquiring any “margin stock” within the meaning of Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or for any other purpose which would be inconsistent with such Regulation U or any other Regulations of such Board of
Governors, or for any purposes prohibited by Legal Requirements or by the terms and conditions of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. 
  
 (o) Utilities and Public Access. Each Property has rights of access to dedicated public ways (and makes no material use of any means of access or
egress that is not pursuant to such dedicated public ways or recorded, irrevocable rights-of-way or easements) and is served by water, sewer, sanitary sewer and storm drain facilities adequate to service such Property for its current uses. All
public utilities necessary for the full use and enjoyment of each Property are located in the public right-of-way abutting the applicable Property or in or through a recorded irrevocable easement in favor of such Property, and all such utilities are
connected so as to serve the applicable Property without passing over other property, except to the extent that such utilities are accessible to the applicable Property by virtue of a recorded irrevocable easement or similar agreement or right. All
roads necessary for the use of each Property for its current purposes have been completed and are either part of the applicable Property (by way of deed or recorded easement) or dedicated to public use and accepted by all relevant Governmental
Authorities. 
  
 (p) Not a Foreign Person. Such Borrower,
or if any such Borrower is classified as a “disregarded entity” for United States federal income tax purposes (a “DRE”), the owner of such Borrower (and, if such owner is a DRE, the first upper-tier entity that is not a
DRE), is not a “foreign person” within the meaning of § 1445(f)(3) of the Code. 
  
 (q) Separate Lots. Each Property is comprised of one (1) or more parcels which constitute one or more separate tax lots which do not include any property not a part of the applicable Property. 
  
 (r) Basic Carrying Costs; Assessments. Except for Basic Carrying Costs
deposited with Lender in accordance with this Agreement or deposited in the applicable Hotel Operating Account pursuant to the applicable Property Management Agreement, it has paid all Basic Carrying Costs due and payable as of the Closing Date. To
the best of its knowledge there are no pending or proposed special or other assessments for public improvements or other matters affecting any Property (except as shown in the financial statements described in clause (l) above), nor, to the best of
its knowledge, are there any contemplated improvements to any Property that are likely to result in such special or other assessments. 
  

 64 








 (s) Enforceability. The Loan Documents are not subject to any right of rescission, set-off,
counterclaim or defense by any Borrower and/or Operating Lessee, including the defense of usury, nor would the operation of any of the terms of the Loan Documents, or the exercise of any right thereunder, render the Loan Documents unenforceable,
subject to laws affecting the enforcement of the rights or remedies of creditors generally and/or equitable principles of general application, and no Borrower has asserted any right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense with respect
thereto. 
  
 (t) No Prior Assignment. There are no prior
assignments of the Leases or any portion of the Rents due and payable or to become due and payable which are presently outstanding, except in connection with indebtedness either to be repaid in full from the proceeds of the Loan or secured by Liens
which have been released concurrently with the Closing Date. 
  
 (u) Insurance. It has obtained and has delivered to Lender insurance policies reflecting the insurance coverages, amounts and other requirements set forth in this Agreement. All premiums on such insurance policies required to be paid
as of the date hereof have been paid for the current policy period. No claims have been made under any such policy that would have a material adverse effect with respect to any Property, and no Person, including any Borrower, has done, by act or
omission, anything which would impair the coverage of any such policy. 
  
 (v) Certificate of Occupancy; Licenses. Except as disclosed in Schedule 4.1(v), Borrowers have obtained, or have caused each of the Property Managers to obtain pursuant to the Property Management Agreements, all material
certifications, permits, licenses, approvals registrations, authorizations, accreditations or consents (collectively, the “Licenses”), including certificates of completion and occupancy permits (or other local equivalent), required
by, and accomplished all filings, notifications, registrations and qualifications with (or obtained exemptions from any of the foregoing from), any federal, state, or local government or government department, agency, board, commission, bureau or
instrumentality (i) to properly and legally own, manage and operate the Properties after any restructuring that will occur in connection with the Loan and (ii) which are necessary for the conduct of its business. Each License has been duly obtained,
is valid and in full force and effect, and is not subject to any pending or, to the knowledge of any Borrower, threatened administrative or judicial proceeding to revoke, cancel or declare such License invalid in any respect. No Borrower is in
default or violation with respect to any of the Licenses in a manner that would have a Material Adverse Effect, and no event has occurred which constitutes, or with due notice or lapse of time or both may constitute, a default by any Borrower under,
or a violation of, any License that would have a Material Adverse Effect. Each Property has a certificate of occupancy or other local equivalent (where required by applicable Legal Requirements) and the use being made of each Property is in
conformity with such applicable certificate of occupancy. 
  
 (w)
Flood Zone. Except as may be disclosed in Schedule 4.1(w), none of the Improvements on any Property is located in an area as identified by the Federal Emergency Management Agency or the Federal Insurance Administration as an area
having special flood hazards (Zone A), and, to the extent that any part of any Property is located in an area identified by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as an area federally designated a “100 year flood plain,” such Property is
covered by flood insurance meeting the requirements set forth in Section 8.1(b)(i) hereof. 
  

 65 








 (x) Physical Condition. Except as disclosed in the engineering reports listed on Schedule
4.1(x), each Property, including all buildings, improvements, parking facilities, sidewalks, storm drainage systems, roofs, plumbing systems, HVAC systems, fire protection systems, electrical systems, equipment, elevators, exterior sidings and
doors, landscaping, irrigation systems and all structural components, are in good condition, order and repair in all respects material to the use, operation or value of the applicable Property. There exists no structural or other material defects or
damages in any Property, whether latent or otherwise (except for such matters as are expressly referred to in Section 9.2, for which reserves are being established), after taking into account in making such determination remedial efforts
being taken by any Borrower to correct such defect or damages following discovery thereof. It has not received written notice and is not otherwise aware from any insurance company or bonding company of any defects or inadequacies in any Property, or
any part thereof, which would, alone or in the aggregate, adversely affect in any material respect the insurability of the same or cause the imposition of extraordinary premiums or charges thereon or of any termination or threatened termination of
any policy of insurance or bond. 
  
 (y) Leases. No Person
has any possessory interest in any Property or right to occupy the same except under and pursuant to the provisions of the Leases, and true and complete copies of all Leases executed and delivered on or before the Rent Roll Date have been delivered
to Lender (and any Leases executed and delivered since such date shall be delivered promptly after the Closing Date). As to all present Leases and (upon execution thereof) all future Leases relating to each Property, the applicable Borrower will be
the sole owner of the lessor’s interest. As to all Leases: 
  
 (i) There are no outstanding landlord obligations with respect to tenant allowances or free rent periods or tenant improvement work; all of the obligations and duties of landlord under the Leases that are due or are
to be performed (as applicable) on or prior to the date hereof have been fulfilled, and there are no pending claims asserted by any Tenant for offsets or abatements against rent or any other monetary claim; 
  
 (ii) All of the Leases are free and clear of any right or
interest of any real estate broker or any other person (whether or not such brokers or other persons have negotiated the Leases or have contracted with Borrowers for the collection of the rents thereunder), and no brokerage or leasing commission or
other compensation is or will be due or payable to any person, firm, corporation or other entity with respect to or on account of any of the Leases; 
  
 (iii) Schedule 4.1(gg) sets forth all security deposits and letters of credit held by or on behalf of the lessor under the Leases.
All security deposits have been held in accordance with law and the terms of the applicable Leases, and no security deposits have been applied, or letters of credit drawn upon, following a default by a Tenant still in possession; 
  
 (iv) A Borrower is the sole owner of the lessor’s
interest in all of the Leases and no Borrower has given or suffered any other assignment, pledge or encumbrance in respect of any of the Leases or its interests thereunder, and the applicable 

  

 66 








 
Borrower or Property Manager has the sole right to collect rents and other amounts due under the Leases; 
  
 (v) Except as disclosed on Schedule 4.1(gg), no
Tenant (i) is more than thirty (30) days in arrears on its rent or other amounts due to the landlord under its Lease and (ii) no Borrower has accepted Rent under any Lease or Operating Agreement for more than one month in advance, except for
security deposits, which on the Closing Date have been deposited with the Lender in accordance with the provisions hereof relating to security deposits received from and after the date hereof; and 
  
 (vi) None of the Leases contains any option to purchase, any
right of first refusal to purchase or any right to terminate the lease term (except in the event of the destruction of all or substantially all of the applicable Property). 
  
 (z) Survey. Except as disclosed in writing to Lender, the survey for each Property delivered to Lender in connection
with this Agreement is a Qualified Survey. Except as may be shown on the Qualified Survey, all of the improvements relating to each Property lie wholly within the boundaries and building restriction lines of the applicable Property, and no
improvements on adjoining properties encroach upon such Property, and no easements or other encumbrances upon such Property encroach upon any of the improvements, so as, in either case, to materially adversely affect the value or marketability of
the Property in question except Permitted Encumbrances and those which are insured against by a Qualified Title Insurance Policy. Since the date of the Qualified Survey relating to each Property referenced in the applicable Qualified Title Insurance
Policy, no new improvement has been constructed on such Property and there has been no alteration to the exterior of any existing improvement on such Property (other than routine repair and replacements of roofs, walls or windows). 
  
 (aa) Filing and Recording Taxes. All transfer taxes, deed stamps,
intangible taxes or other amounts in the nature of transfer taxes required to be paid by any Person under applicable Legal Requirements currently in effect in connection with the transfer of any of a Property to any Borrower have been paid in full
or deposited with the issuer of a Qualified Title Insurance Policy for payment upon recordation of the deeds effecting such transfer. All mortgage, mortgage recording, stamp, intangible or other similar tax required to be paid by any Person under
applicable Legal Requirements currently in effect in connection with the execution, delivery, recordation, filing, registration, perfection or enforcement of any of the Loan Documents, including the Mortgage, and the Liens intended to be created
thereby, have been paid or deposited with the issuer of a Qualified Title Insurance Policy for payment upon recordation of the Mortgage. 
  
 (bb) Single-Purpose. Each Borrower and Operating Lessee hereby represents and warrants to, and covenants with, Lender that, as of the date hereof,
at all times prior hereto and until such time as the Debt shall be paid in full or its property is no longer subject to the Lien securing the Debt: 
  
 (i) It has not owned and will not own any property or any other assets other than (A) with respect to the Borrower, the Properties

the Properties; 
  
 (ii) It was formed solely for
the purpose of engaging in, and has not engaged and will not engage in, any business other than the ownership, leasing, management, financing and operation of the Properties;

available on an arm’s-length basis with third parties; 
  
 (iv) It will not incur any indebtedness, secured or unsecured, direct or indirect, absolute or contingent (including guaranteeing any obligation), other than the Permitted Indebtedness. Except as set forth in the

(vi) of the definition of Permitted Indebtedness may be secured (subordinate or pari passu) by any personal property; 
  
 (v) Other than as provided in the Loan Documents, it will not make any loans or advances to, and it will not pledge its assets for the
benefit of, any other Person (including any Affiliate or constituent party or any Affiliate of any constituent party), and shall not acquire obligations or securities of any Affiliate or constituent party or any Affiliate of any constituent party;

  
 (vi) It is and will remain solvent and it
will pay its debts and liabilities (including employment and overhead expenses) from its assets as the same shall become due; 
  
 (vii) It has done or caused to be done and will do all things necessary to observe limited liability company formalities (in all material
respects), as the case may be, and preserve its existence, and it will not, to the extent possible under applicable law, nor will it permit or suffer any constituent party to amend, modify or otherwise change its partnership certificate, partnership
agreement, certificate of formation (except as required by law), limited liability company agreement, articles of incorporation and bylaws, trust or other organizational documents or those of such constituent party in a manner which would adversely
affect its existence as a Single Purpose Entity; 
  
 (viii) It has and will maintain books and records, financial statements and accounts separate and apart from those of any other Person and it will file its own tax returns (except to the extent consolidation is required under GAAP,
permitted for tax purposes or as a matter of law, provided that any consolidated financial statements contain a note indicating that it and its Affiliates are separate legal entities and maintain records, books of account and accounts separate and
apart from any other Person); 
  

 68 








 (ix) It has and will be, and at all times has held and will hold itself out to the public
as, a legal entity separate and distinct from any other entity (including any of its Affiliates, any of its constituent parties or any Affiliate of any constituent party), has and shall conduct business in its own name, has and shall exercise
reasonable efforts to correct any known misunderstanding actually known to it regarding its separate identity, and has and shall maintain and utilize separate stationery, invoices and checks and it will reasonably allocate any overhead that is
shared with any Affiliate, including, but not limited to, paying for shared office space and services performed by any officer or employee of an Affiliate; 
  
 (x) It has and will maintain adequate capital for the normal obligations reasonably foreseeable in a business of its size and character
and in light of its contemplated business operations; 
  
 (xi) To the fullest extent permitted by law, neither it nor any constituent party has nor will seek any Borrower’s or Operating Lessee’s dissolution or winding up, in whole or in part; 
  
 (xii) It does not and will not commingle its funds and other
assets with those of any Affiliate or constituent party or any Affiliate of any constituent party or any other Person except that each Borrower and Operating Lessee may commingle its funds with the funds of the other Borrower and Operating Lessee in

 (xiii) It has and will maintain its assets in such a manner that it will not be costly or difficult to segregate, ascertain or identify
its individual assets from those of any Affiliate or constituent party or any Affiliate of any constituent party or any other Person; 
  
 (xiv) Except in its capacity as a co-obligor under the Notes together with the other Borrowers, it does not and will not hold itself or
its credit out to be responsible for or available to satisfy, and it has not guaranteed or otherwise become liable for, and has not and will not guarantee or otherwise become liable for, the debts, securities or obligations of any other Person;

  
 (xv) If it is a limited liability company,
either (a) at least one of its members is and shall be a Single Purpose Entity (the “SPE Member”) whose sole assets are its interest in the applicable Borrower or Operating Lessee and that has no less than a one percent (1%)
membership interest in the applicable Borrower or Operating Lessee, and such Borrower or Operating Lessee shall be deemed hereby to have made each of the representations, warranties and covenants contained in this Section 4.1(bb) with respect
to the SPE Member, and the SPE Member shall have two (2) Independent Directors as duly appointed members of its board of directors or (b) it shall have two (2) Independent Directors on its board of managers or board of directors (as applicable);

  

 69 








 (xvi) It has and shall, at all times, have a limited liability company agreement which

member SPE Member, the board of directors of the SPE Member or (b) if such Borrower or Operating Lessee is a board managed limited liability company with two (2) Independent Directors on its board of directors) will not be permitted to take any
action which, under applicable law or the terms of any certificate of incorporation or certificate of formation, limited liability company agreement, by-laws or any voting trust agreement with respect to any common stock, requires the vote of its
board of directors or board of managers, unless at the time of such action there shall be at least two members of such board who are Independent Directors; provided, however, that, subject to any applicable Legal Requirement, its board
of directors (or if such Borrower or Operating Lessee is a limited liability company and is not self managed, the board of directors of its SPE Member) may, at its discretion, be permitted to take any action without regard to the preceding clause of
this sentence other than the following actions, which actions may not be taken: (A) to the fullest extent permitted by law, dissolve or liquidate, in whole or in part; (B) consolidate or merge with or into any other entity or convey or transfer all
or substantially all of its properties and assets to any entity unless the applicable Borrower is releasing that Property from the Lien of the Mortgage or paying off the Loan in accordance with the terms herein; (C) engage in any business other than
the ownership, maintenance and operation of the Properties or, with respect to the SPE Member (if applicable), acting as a member of a Borrower or Operating Lessee; (D) institute any proceeding to be adjudicated as bankrupt or insolvent, or consent

or liquidation of its affairs, or make or consent to an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, or take any action in furtherance of any of the foregoing; (E) except

 (xvii) It has no liabilities, contingent or
otherwise, other than those normal and incidental to the ownership, operation and leasing of the Properties; 
  
 (xviii) Each Borrower and Operating Lessee shall conduct its business so that the assumptions made with respect to such Borrower or
Operating Lessee in that 

  

 70 








 
certain opinion letter dated the date hereof delivered by Perkins Coie LLP addressing substantive non-consolidation and other matters in connection with the
Loan shall at all times be true and correct in all respects; 
  
 (xix) No Borrower or Operating Lessee will permit any Affiliate or constituent party independent access to its bank accounts except that each Borrower and Operating Lessee may commingle its funds with the funds of the
other Borrowers and Operating Lessees in the Deposit Account, in the Holding Account, in the Tax and Insurance Escrow Account and in each of the other Reserve Accounts; 
  
 (xx) Each Borrower and Operating Lessee has and shall pay the salaries of its own employees, if any, and
maintain a sufficient number of employees in light of its contemplated business operations; 
  
 (xxi) Each Borrower and Operating Lessee has and shall compensate each of its consultants and agents from its funds for services provided
to it and pay from its own assets all obligations of any kind incurred. Upon the withdrawal or the disassociation of the Independent Director from any constituent entity of any Borrower or Operating Lessee (or from a Borrower or Operating Lessee
directly), such Borrower or Operating Lessee shall immediately appoint a new director or special member or cause such entity to appoint a new director or special member that satisfies the requirements of an Independent Director under this Agreement;
and 
  
 (xxii) Each Borrower and Operating Lessee
is subject to and complies with all of the limitations on powers and separateness requirements set forth in its organizational documentation as of the Closing Date. 
  
 (cc) Investment Company Act. Each of Borrower and Operating Lessee is not (i) an “investment company” or a
company “controlled” by an “investment company,” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended; or (ii) a “holding company” or a “subsidiary company” of a “holding company” or
an “affiliate” of either a “holding company” or a “subsidiary company” within the meaning of the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, as amended. Its sole business is the ownership, operation, maintenance,
repair, financing, refinancing and disposition of the Properties and such matters as are incidental to the foregoing. 
  
 (dd) Fraudulent Transfer. Each of Borrower and Operating Lessee (i) has not entered into the Loan, the Operating Leases or any Loan Document with
the actual intent to hinder, delay, or defraud any creditor and (ii) has received reasonably equivalent value in exchange for its obligations under the Loan Documents and the Operating Leases. Giving effect to the transactions contemplated by the
Loan Documents, the fair saleable value of each of Borrower’s and Operating Lessee’s assets exceeds and will, immediately following the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents, exceed its total liabilities, including subordinated,
unliquidated, disputed or contingent liabilities. The fair saleable value of its assets is and will, immediately following the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents, be greater than each of its probable liabilities, including the maximum
amount of its contingent liabilities or its debts as such debts become absolute and matured. Each of Borrower’s and Operating Lessee’s assets do not and, immediately following the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents will not,


  

 71 








 
constitute unreasonably small capital to carry out its business as conducted or as proposed to be conducted. Each of Borrower and Operating Lessee does not
intend to, and does not believe that it will, incur debts and liabilities (including contingent liabilities and other commitments) beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature (taking into account the timing and amounts to be payable on or in
respect of its obligations). 
  
 (ee) Material Agreements,
Operating Leases and Property Management Agreements. Each of the Material Agreements, the Operating Leases and each Property Management Agreement is in full force and effect and is valid and enforceable in all material respects, subject in each
case to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights and, where applicable, to general equity principles; there are no defaults,
breaches or violations thereunder by any Borrower or Operating Lessee, and neither Borrower nor Operating Lessee has given written notice of any defaults, breaches or violations by any other party thereto except as have already been cured or as are
disclosed on Schedule 4.1(ee) hereto, where with respect to any such Agreement the effect of one or more of any such defaults would have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents, the performance of
the Borrowers or Operating Lessees thereunder, the recordation of each Mortgage, nor the exercise of any remedies by Lender, will adversely affect any Borrower’s or Operating Lessee’s rights under any of the Material Agreements, the
Operating Leases or Property Management Agreements. 
  
 (ff)
Employees. Each of Borrower and Operating Lessee either has no employees or has no material liability which has been incurred by it and remains unsatisfied for any taxes or penalties with respect to (i) any Employee Benefit Plan established,
sponsored, maintained or contributed to by it on behalf of its employees at any Property or (ii) any Multiemployer Plan as to which it is making or has an obligation to make contributions or (iii) any lien which has been imposed on its assets
pursuant to Section 412 of the Code or Sections 302 or 4068 of ERISA. 
  
 (gg) Rent Roll. The Leases reflected in the most recent occupancy reports described in Schedule 4.1(gg) are in full force and effect, and are valid and enforceable in all material respects, subject in each case to bankruptcy,
insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights and, where applicable, to general equity principles and (ii) except as set forth in Schedule
4.1(gg), the Leases are in full force and effect, there are no material defaults thereunder by any Borrower or, to the best of each Borrower’s knowledge, the other party thereto, and to the best of each Borrower’s knowledge, there are
no conditions (other than payments that are due but not yet delinquent and other non-delinquent executory obligations) that, with the passage of time or the giving of notice, or both, would constitute a material default thereunder. 
  
 (hh) Legal Compliance. To its best knowledge, neither any Property,
nor any portion thereof, is on the date hereof in violation of any Legal Requirement or any Insurance Requirement (including, without, limitation all Legal Requirements relating to all security deposits with respect to any Property), in a manner
that is likely to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
  

 72 








 (ii) No Change in Facts or Circumstances; Disclosure. All information submitted by Borrowers to
Lender and in all financial statements, rent rolls, reports, certificates and other documents submitted in connection with the Loan or in satisfaction of the terms thereof and all statements of fact made by any Borrower in this Agreement or in any
other Loan Document, are, or with respect to any such documents or information that were prepared by a third-party, are to the best of Borrower’s knowledge, accurate, complete and correct in all material respects. There has been no material
adverse change in any condition, fact, circumstance or event that would have a Material Adverse Effect. Each Borrower has disclosed to Lender all material facts to which such Borrower has knowledge and has not failed to disclose any material fact of
which it has knowledge that would have a Material Adverse Effect. 
  
 (jj) Illegal Activity. No Borrower has purchased any portion of any Property with proceeds of any illegal activity. 
  
 (kk) Loans to Related Parties. There are no loans payable by any Borrower (a) to any member of such Borrower or to any other lender which is an

amendments) as it is prepared in respect of the Properties for such Fiscal Year. During any Low DSCR Period, to the extent any Borrower has the right to approve any Annual Budget or amendment to any Annual Budget under any Property Management
Agreement or to the extent any Borrower has the right to approve or consent to any variance from the Annual Budget in excess of 5% of any line item under any Property Management Agreement, Borrowers shall not approve any such Annual Budget or any
such amendment to any Annual Budget or approve or consent to any variance from such Annual Budget without the prior written consent of Lender, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. To the extent Lender has the right to approve or
disapprove any Annual Budget or variance therefrom in accordance with this Section 5.1(q)(ii), Lender shall have thirty (30) days after Lender’s receipt thereof to approve or disapprove any Annual Budget. If, at the expiration of such thirty
(30) day approval period, Lender has not either approved or disapproved the Annual Budget in question, Borrowers shall deliver a second notice to Lender. Lender’s failure to approve or disapprove such Annual Budget within fifteen (15) days
after Lender’s receipt of the second notice from Borrowers shall be deemed to constitute Lender’s approval thereof. 
  
 (r) No Joint Assessment. Borrowers shall not suffer, permit or initiate the joint assessment of any Property (i) with any other real property
constituting a tax lot separate from such Property, and (ii) unless required by applicable law, with any portion of such Property which may be deemed to constitute personal property, or any other procedure whereby the lien of any taxes which may be
levied against such personal property shall be assessed or levied or charged to the applicable Property.

 (iii) All new Leases entered into from and after the date
hereof shall be the result of arm’s-length negotiations, shall provide for “market” rental rates and other market terms and shall not contain any terms which would adversely affect Lender’s rights under the Loan Documents;
provided that the rent payable under a new Lease may be below market rate if the rent from the space leased under the new Lease was, immediately prior to the entry into that new Lease, below market rate and such new Lease was given in
exchange for the surrender of the prior Lease. 
  
 (iv) All Leases shall provide that they are subordinate to the Mortgage and, subject to Lender entering into a Subordination, Non-Disturbance and Attornment Agreement satisfactory to Lender, that the lessee thereunder agrees to attorn to

interest in the Leases or the Rents (except for the Assignment of Leases).

shall be accompanied by a summary of the terms of such proposed Lease and (including the economic terms and any termination options) shall be deemed approved if Lender shall have not notified Borrowers in writing of its disapproval (together with a
statement of the grounds of such disapproval) within ten (10) Business Days after Borrowers shall have given Lender written notice confirming that at least two (2) Business Days have elapsed since such submission. 
  
 (vii) Borrowers shall not enter into a Lease of all or
substantially all of any one or more of the Properties except after having received a Rating Confirmation as to such Lease and the Tenant thereunder, and otherwise in compliance with all terms and conditions hereof and the other Loan Documents. Any
such Lease shall (A) not result in a decrease in Borrowers’ Net Operating Income of each affected Property from the Net Operating Income of such Property immediately prior to the effective date of such Lease or, if higher, the Net Operating
Income of such Property as of the Closing 

  

 86 








 
Date, (B) be subject and subordinate to the Lien of the Mortgage and Lender shall not be obligated to deliver a nondisturbance agreement in favor of the
Tenant thereunder, and (C) impose on the Tenant thereunder all the obligations of Borrowers hereunder in respect of each affected Property.

from Borrowers to the extent required to comply with obligations owed to such Tenant under the terms of its Lease or to Borrowers, in the event of such Tenant’s default under its Lease, subject to Lender’s approval, which approval shall
not be unreasonably withheld (based on, among other things, the intended use of such deposit and whether a replacement Lease has been executed). Lender may commingle funds deposited hereunder and Lender shall not be obligated to segregate, designate
or separately account for any specific security deposit, except to the extent that any Borrower notifies Lender in writing at or prior to the time of any deposit that such deposit is required to be segregated by the applicable Lease or under
applicable law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (x) Lender shall not acquire a security interest or Lien in respect of security deposits to the extent that such acquisition would be prohibited by applicable law and (y) to the extent required by law,
security deposits shall be maintained within the state in which the Property in question is situate and, if permitted by law, shall be transferred to escrow accounts in the name of Lender within the applicable states (which escrow accounts shall be
maintained in accordance with the terms of Section 12.2 hereof).

 (c) A Material Alteration or Material Expansion, to the extent architects are
customarily used for alterations or expansions of those types, but including any structural change to any of the Properties or the Improvements, shall be conducted under the supervision of an Independent Architect and shall not be undertaken until
ten (10) Business Days after there shall have been filed with Lender, for information purposes only and not for approval by Lender, detailed plans and specifications and cost estimates therefor, prepared and approved in writing by such Independent
Architect. Such plans and specifications may be revised at any time and from time to time, provided that revisions of such plans and specifications shall be filed with Lender, for information purposes only. 
  
 (d) The Alteration or Expansion may not in and of itself, either during the
Alteration or Expansion or upon completion, be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect with respect to a Property. In addition, if the Aggregate DSCR can reasonably be expected to be less than 1.50:1.00 during the scheduled period of
any Material Alteration or Material Expansion, taking into account the required escrows (or completion bond) provided under Section 7.1(h)(i) below; then in order to proceed with such Material Alteration or Material Expansion the Borrowers shall
deliver to Lender, as additional security for the Debt, Eligible Collateral in the total amount of the estimated reduction in Net Operating Income resulting from the Alteration or Expansion as additional security for the Debt. On each Payment Date
during the period in which such Material Alteration or Material Expansion is being performed, Lender shall release a portion of such Eligible Collateral to Borrower in an amount equal to the estimated reduction in the Net Operating Income resulting
from the Alteration or Expansion for the month in which the Payment Date occurs. Any remaining Eligible Collateral shall be returned to Borrowers after completion of such Material Alteration or Material Expansion if the reduction in Net Operating
Income has been restored and no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. 
  
 (e) All work done in connection with any Alteration or Expansion shall be performed with due diligence to Final Completion in a good and workmanlike manner, all materials used in connection with any Alteration or
Expansion shall be not less than the standard of quality of the materials generally used at the applicable Property as of the date hereof (or, if 

  

 96 








 
greater, the then-current customary quality in the submarket in which such Property is located) and all work shall be performed and all materials used in
accordance with all applicable Legal Requirements and Insurance Requirements. 
  
 (f) The cost of any Alteration or Expansion shall be promptly and fully paid for by Borrowers, subject to the next succeeding sentence. No payment made prior to the Final Completion of an Alteration or Expansion or
Restoration to any contractor, subcontractor, materialman, supplier, engineer, architect, project manager or other Person who renders services or furnishes materials in connection with such Alteration shall exceed ninety percent (90%) (other than
with respect to FF&E for which Borrower may make payments in full prior to Final Completion if it has received delivery of such items and otherwise has complied with the terms of Section 9.2.16) of the aggregate value of the work
performed by such Person from time to time and materials furnished and incorporated into the Improvements. 
  
 (g) All work performed in connection with the (i) cure of the Deferred Maintenance Conditions and (ii) remediation of the Environmental Conditions shall
be performed in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in clauses (a), (c), (e) and (f) of this Section 7.1. Subject to Section 7.1(f) above, from time to time as the cure or remediation of any particular Deferred
Maintenance Condition or Environmental Condition progresses, Lender shall, subject to and upon the satisfaction of the terms and conditions set forth in Section 9.2.2 herein, disburse to Borrowers from the Deferred Maintenance and
Environmental Conditions Reserve Account, amounts incurred by Borrowers in connection with the cure or remediation of the Deferred Maintenance Condition or Environmental Condition in question. 
  
 (h) With respect to any Material Alteration or Material Expansion:

  
 (i) Borrowers shall have delivered to Lender
Eligible Collateral in an amount equal to at least the total estimated remaining unpaid costs of such Material Alteration or Material Expansion which Eligible Collateral shall be held by Lender as security for the Debt and released to the applicable
Borrower as such work progresses in accordance with Section 7.1(h)(iii) hereof; provided, however, in the event that any Material Alteration or Material Expansion shall be made in conjunction with any Restoration with respect to
which a Borrower shall be entitled to withdraw Proceeds pursuant to Section 8.1.2(b) hereof (including any Proceeds remaining after completion of such Restoration), the amount of the Eligible Collateral to be furnished pursuant hereto need
not exceed the aggregate cost of such Restoration and such Material Alteration or Material Expansion (in either case, as estimated by the Independent Architect) less the sum of the amount of any Proceeds which any Borrower is entitled to withdraw
pursuant to Section 8.1 hereof; 
  
 (ii)
Prior to commencement of construction of such Material Alteration or Material Expansion, Borrowers shall deliver to Lender a schedule (with the concurrence of the Independent Architect) setting forth the projected stages of completion of such
Alteration or Expansion and the corresponding amounts expected to be due and payable by or on behalf of Borrowers in connection with such completion, such schedule to be updated quarterly by Borrowers (and with the concurrence of the Independent
Architect) during the performance of such Alteration or Expansion. 
  

 97 








 (iii) Any Eligible Collateral that a Borrower delivers to Lender pursuant hereto (and the
proceeds of any such Eligible Collateral) shall be invested (to the extent such Eligible Collateral can be invested) by Lender in Permitted Investments for a period of time consistent with the date on which such Borrower notifies Lender that such
Borrower expects to request a release of such Eligible Collateral in accordance with the next succeeding sentence. From time to time as the Alteration or Expansion progresses, the amount of any Eligible Collateral so furnished may, upon the written
request of any Borrower to Lender, be withdrawn by Borrowers and paid or otherwise applied by or returned to Borrowers in an amount equal to the amount Borrowers would be entitled to so withdraw if Section 8.1.2(e) hereof were applicable, and
any Eligible Collateral so furnished which is a Credit Facility may be reduced by Borrowers in an amount equal to the amount Borrowers would be entitled to so reduce if Section 8.1.2(e) hereof were applicable, subject, in each case, to the
satisfaction of the conditions precedent to withdrawal of funds or reduction of the Credit Facility set forth in Section 8.1.2(e) hereof, provided however that, notwithstanding the terms of Section 8.1.2(e), instead of reimbursing
Borrowers for amounts already paid in respect of such Alteration or Expansion, Eligible Collateral shall be disbursed to Borrower or, at Lender’s election, the applicable contractor upon presentation to Lender of a draw request together with
copies of invoices for the amounts to be withdrawn. In connection with the above-described quarterly update of the projected stages of completion of the Material Alteration or Material Expansion (as concurred with by an Independent Architect),
Borrowers shall increase (or be permitted to decrease, as applicable) the Eligible Collateral then deposited with Lender as necessary to comply with Section 7.1(h)(i) hereof. 
  
 (iv) At any time after Final Completion of such Alterations or Expansions, the whole balance of any Cash
deposited with Lender pursuant to Section 7.1(h) hereof then remaining on deposit may be withdrawn by Borrowers and shall be paid by Lender to Borrowers, and any Eligible Collateral so deposited shall, to the extent it has not been called
upon, reduced or theretofore released, be released by Lender to Borrowers, within ten (10) days after receipt by Lender of an application for such withdrawal and/or release together with an Officer’s Certificate, and as to the following clauses
(A) and (B) of this clause also a certificate of the Independent Architect, setting forth in substance as follows: 
  
 (A) that such Alteration(s) or Expansion(s) has been completed in all material respects in accordance with any plans and specifications
therefor previously filed with Lender under Section 7.1(c) hereof; 
  
 (B) that to the knowledge of the certifying Person, (x) such Alteration(s) or Expansion(s) has been completed in compliance with all Legal Requirements, and (y) to the extent required for the legal use or occupancy of
the portion of the Property affected by such Alteration(s) or Expansion(s), the applicable Borrower has obtained a temporary or permanent certificate of occupancy (or similar certificate) or, if no such certificate is required, a statement to that
effect; 
  

 98 








 (C) that to the knowledge of the certifying Person, all amounts that a Borrower is or may
become liable to pay in respect of such Alteration(s) or Expansion(s) through the date of the certification have been paid in full or adequately provided for and, to the extent that such are customary and reasonably obtainable by prudent property
owners in the area where the applicable Property is located, that Lien waivers have been obtained from the general contractor and subcontractors performing such Alteration(s) or Expansion(s) or at its sole cost and expense, Borrowers shall cause a
nationally recognized title insurance company to deliver to Lender an endorsement to the Qualified Title Policy, updating such policy and insuring over such Liens without further exceptions to such policy other than Permitted Encumbrances, or shall,
at its sole cost and expense, cause a reputable title insurance company to deliver a lender’s title insurance policy, in such form, in such amounts and with such endorsements as the Qualified Title Policy, which policy shall be dated the date
of completion of the Material Alteration and shall contain no exceptions other than Permitted Encumbrances; provided, however, that if, for any reason, Borrowers are unable to deliver the certification required by this clause (C) with
respect to any costs or expenses relating to the Alteration(s) or Expansion(s), then, assuming Borrowers are able to satisfy each of the other requirements set forth in clauses (A) and (B) above, Borrowers shall be entitled to the release of the
difference between the whole balance of such Eligible Collateral and the total of all costs and expenses to which Borrowers are unable to certify; and 
  
 (D) that to the knowledge of the certifying Person, no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. 
  
 Section 7.2. Leasing. Each Borrower shall observe the covenants set
forth in Section 5.1(s) hereof. 
  
 ARTICLE VIII 

 
 CASUALTY AND CONDEMNATION 
  
 Section 8.1. Insurance; Casualty and Condemnation. 
  
 (a) Borrowers, at their sole cost and expense, for the mutual benefit of
Borrowers and Lender, shall keep each Property insured and obtain and maintain policies of insurance insuring against loss or damage by standard perils included within the classification “All Risks of Physical Loss.” Such insurance (i)
shall be in an aggregate amount equal to the then full replacement cost of each Property and the Equipment (without deduction for physical depreciation), or such lesser amounts approved by Lender in its sole discretion (or after a Securitization,
upon receipt of a Rating Confirmation), and (ii) shall have deductibles no greater than $500,000 (as escalated by the CPI Increase) (or, with respect to windstorm insurance, deductibles no greater than 5% of the full replacement cost of each
Property. The policies of insurance carried in accordance with this paragraph shall be paid annually in advance and shall contain a “Replacement Cost Endorsement” with a waiver of depreciation. 
  

 99 








 (b) Borrowers, at their sole cost and expense, for the mutual benefit of Borrowers and Lender, shall also
obtain and maintain the following policies of insurance: 
  
 (i) Flood insurance if any part of any Property is located in an area identified by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as an area federally designated a “100 year flood plain” (an “Affected
Property” and collectively the “Affected Properties”) and (A) flood insurance is generally available at reasonable premiums and in such amount as generally required by institutional lenders for similar properties or (B) if
not so available from a private carrier, from the federal government at commercially reasonable premiums to the extent available. In either case, the flood insurance shall be in an amount at least equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Loan
and the Mezzanine Loans outstanding from time to time or the maximum limit of coverage available with respect to the applicable Property under said program, whichever is less; provided, however, notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrowers hereby agree
to maintain at all times flood insurance in an amount equal to at least $81,000,000 (per occurrence) for the Affected Properties; 
  
 (ii) Commercial general liability insurance, including broad form property damage, blanket contractual and personal injuries (including
death resulting therefrom) coverages and containing minimum limits per occurrence of $1,000,000 with a $2,000,000 general aggregate for any policy year. In addition, at least $50,000,000 excess and/or umbrella liability insurance shall be obtained
and maintained for claims, including legal liability imposed upon Borrowers and all related court costs and attorneys’ fees and disbursements; 
  
 (iii) Rental loss and/or business interruption insurance in an amount sufficient to avoid any co-insurance penalty and equal to the
greater of (A) the estimated gross revenues from the operation of the applicable Property (including (x) the total payable under the Leases and all Rents and (y) the total of all other amounts to be received by Borrowers or third parties that are
the legal obligation of the Tenants), net of non-recurring expenses, for a period of up to the next succeeding eighteen (18) months, or (B) the projected Operating Expenses (including debt service) for the maintenance and operation of the applicable
Property for a period of up to the next succeeding eighteen (18) months as the same may be reduced or increased from time to time due to changes in such Operating Expenses and shall include an endorsement providing 12 months extended period of
indemnity. The amount of such insurance shall be increased from time to time as and when the Rents increase or the estimates of (or the actual) gross revenue, as may be applicable, increases or decreases to the extent Rents or the estimates of gross
revenue decrease; 
  
 (iv) Insurance against loss
or damage from (A) leakage of sprinkler systems and (B) explosion of steam boilers, air conditioning equipment, high pressure piping, machinery and equipment, pressure vessels or similar apparatus now or hereafter installed in any of the
Improvements (without exclusion for explosions) and insurance against loss of occupancy or use arising from any breakdown, in such amounts as are generally available at reasonable premiums and are generally required by institutional lenders for
properties comparable to the Properties; 
  

 100 








 (v) Worker’s compensation insurance with respect to all employees of Borrowers as
and to the extent required by any Governmental Authority or Legal Requirement and employer’s liability coverage of at least $2,000,000 which is scheduled to the excess and/or umbrella liability insurance as referenced in clause (ii) above;

  
 (vi) During any period of repair or
restoration, completed value (non-reporting) builder’s “all risk” insurance in an amount equal to not less than the full insurable value of the applicable Property against such risks (including fire and extended coverage and collapse
of the Improvements to agreed limits) as Lender may request, in form and substance acceptable to Lender; 
  
 (vii) Coverage to compensate for the cost of demolition and the increased cost of construction for the applicable Property; 
  
 (viii) Intentionally omitted; 
  
 (ix) Windstorm insurance in an amount equal to the probable
maximum loss (as determined by Lender in its sole discretion) of the applicable Property provided, that any credit enhancement proposed to be provided by or on behalf of Borrowers in connection with the deductible on such windstorm insurance
shall be subject to the prior receipt of a Rating Confirmation; 
  
 (x) Law and ordinance insurance coverage in an amount no less than that set forth in the insurance policies covering the Properties as of the date hereof; 
  
 (xi) Provided that insurance coverage relating to the acts of terrorist groups or individuals is either (a)
available at commercially reasonable rates, (b) commonly obtained by owners of commercial properties in the same geographic area and which are similar to the Properties or (c) maintained for another hotel property in the same geographic area which
is at least 51% owned directly or indirectly by Strategic Hotel Funding, LLC, Borrower shall be required to carry terrorism insurance throughout the term of the Loan (including any extension terms) in an amount equal to, with respect to
“certified” and “non-certified” acts of terrorism, an amount equal to (i) the Release Amount and the “release amount” under each of the Mezzanine Loan Agreements (as such amounts may be reduced following a Directed
Paydown) with respect to the Property encumbered by the Mortgage with the highest Allocated Loan Amount as of the date hereof, less (ii) 100% of the land value as determined in the Appraisal associated with the Property encumbered by the Mortgage
with the highest Allocated Loan Amount as of the date hereof (the “Minimum Certified Acts Terrorism Amount”) (per occurrence) (collectively, the “Initial Terrorism Coverage Amount”). Lender agrees that terrorism
insurance coverage may be provided under a blanket policy that is acceptable to Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower agrees at all times to maintain terrorism insurance coverage throughout the term of the Loan (including extension terms)
in an amount not less than that which can be purchased for a sum equal to $400,000 (the “Maximum Premium Amount”) in any single policy year, provided, that under no circumstance shall terrorism coverage in excess of the Initial
Terrorism Coverage Amount (per occurrence) of coverage be required hereunder. However, from and after 

  

 101 








 
the date any Property is released from the lien of the Mortgage in accordance with the terms hereof, the amount of terrorism insurance coverage thereafter
required hereunder shall be adjusted (in each case, a “Terrorism Adjustment”) to be in an amount equal to the lesser of (x) Minimum Certified Acts Terrorism Amount and (y) 150% of the greatest Allocated Loan Amount (per occurrence)
applicable to any Property that continues, from time to time to be secured by the Mortgage (the “Adjusted Terrorism Coverage Amount”), per occurrence. In the event of any Terrorism Adjustment, the parties hereby agree that the
Maximum Premium Amount shall also be ratably reduced from time to time based on the ratio that the (1) then applicable Adjusted Terrorism Coverage Amount bears to (2) the Initial Terrorism Coverage Amount; and 
  
 (xii) Such other insurance as may from time to time be
reasonably required by Lender in order to protect its interests. 
  
 (c) All policies of insurance (the “Policies”) required pursuant to this Section 8.1 shall be issued by companies approved by Lender and licensed or authorized to do business in the state where the applicable
Property is located. Further, unless otherwise approved by Lender in its reasonable discretion (prior to a Securitization) and the Rating Agencies in writing, the issuer(s) of the Policies required under this Section 8.1 shall have a claims
paying ability rating of “A” or better by Standard & Poor’s and “Aa2” or better by Moody’s, except that the issuer(s) of the Policies required under Section 8.1(b)(viii) hereof shall have a claims paying
ability rating of “A” or better by Standard & Poor’s and “A2” or better by Moody’s; provided, however, if the insurance provided hereunder is procured by a syndication of more then five (5) insurers then the
foregoing requirements shall not be violated if at least (i) sixty percent (60%) of the coverage is with carriers having a claims paying ability rating of “AA” or better by Standard & Poor’s and “Aa2” or better by
Moody’s and (ii) each other carrier providing coverage has a claims paying ability rating of “BBB-” or better by Standard & Poor’s and Fitch Ratings and “Baa3” or better by Moody’s. The Policies (i) shall name
Lender (or an agent on Lender’s behalf) and its successors and/or assigns as their interest may appear as an additional insured or as a loss payee (except that in the case of general liability insurance, Lender (or an agent on Lender’s
behalf) shall be named an additional insured and not a loss payee); (ii) shall contain a Non-Contributory Standard Lender Clause and, except with respect to general liability insurance, a Lender’s Loss Payable Endorsement, or their equivalents,
naming Lender as the Person to which all payments made by such insurance company shall be paid; (iii) shall include effective waivers by the insurer of all claims for insurance premiums against all loss payees, additional insureds and named insureds
(other than Borrowers) and all rights of subrogation against any loss payee, additional insured or named insured; (iv) shall be assigned to Lender; (v) except as otherwise provided above, shall be subject to a deductible, if any, not greater in any
material respect than the deductible for such coverage on the date hereof; (vi) shall contain such provisions as Lender deems reasonably necessary or desirable to protect its interest, including endorsements providing that neither Borrowers, Lender
nor any other party shall be a Contributor-insurer under said Policies and that no material modification, reduction, cancellation or termination in amount of, or material change (other than an increase) in, coverage of any of the Policies shall be
effective until at least thirty (30) days after receipt by each named insured, additional insured and loss payee of written notice thereof or ten (10) days after receipt of such notice with respect to nonpayment of premium; (vii) shall permit Lender
to pay the premiums and continue any insurance upon failure of Borrowers to pay premiums when due, upon the 

  

 102 








 
insolvency of Borrowers or through foreclosure or other transfer of title to the applicable Property (it being understood that Borrowers’ rights to
coverage under such policies may not be assignable without the consent of the insurer); and (viii) shall provide that any proceeds shall be payable to Lender and that the insurance shall not be impaired or invalidated by virtue of (A) any act,
failure to act, negligence of, or violation of declarations, warranties or conditions contained in such policy by any Borrower, Lender or any other named insured, additional insured or loss payee, except for the willful misconduct of Lender
knowingly in violation of the conditions of such policy, (B) the occupation, use, operation or maintenance of the applicable Property for purposes more hazardous than permitted by the terms of the Policy, (C) any foreclosure or other proceeding or
notice of sale relating to the applicable Property, or (D) any change in the possession of the applicable Property without a change in the identity of the holder of actual title to such Property (provided that with respect to items (C) and
(D), any notice requirements of the applicable Policies are satisfied). Notwithstanding the foregoing, for purposes hereof, Lender hereby approves the existing blanket insurance policy. 
  
 (d) Insurance Premiums; Certificates of Insurance. 
  
 (i) Borrowers shall pay the premiums for such Policies (the “Insurance Premiums” ) as the
same become due and payable and shall furnish to Lender the receipts for the payment of the Insurance Premiums or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Lender (provided, however, that Borrowers are not required to
furnish such evidence of payment to Lender if such Insurance Premiums are to be paid by Lender pursuant to the terms of this Agreement). Within thirty (30) days after request by Lender, Borrowers shall obtain such increases in the amounts of
coverage required hereunder as may be reasonably requested in writing by Lender or as may be requested in writing by the Rating Agencies, taking into consideration changes in liability laws, changes in prudent customs and practices, and the like. In
the event Borrowers satisfy the requirements under this Section 8.1 through the use of a Policy covering properties in addition to the Properties (a “Blanket Policy”), then (unless such policy is provided in substantially the
same manner as it is as of the date hereof), Borrowers shall provide evidence satisfactory to Lender that the Insurance Premiums for the applicable Property or Properties are separately allocated under such Policy to the applicable Property or
Properties and that payment of such allocated amount (A) shall maintain the effectiveness of such Policy as to such Property or Properties and (B) shall otherwise provide the same protection as would a separate policy that complies with the terms of
this Agreement as to such Property or Properties, notwithstanding the failure of payment of any other portion of the insurance premiums. If no such allocation is available, Lender shall have the right to increase the amount required to be deposited
into the Tax and Insurance Escrow Account in an amount sufficient to purchase a non-blanket Policy covering the applicable Property or Properties from insurance companies which qualify under this Agreement. 
  
 (ii) Borrowers shall deliver to Lender on or prior to the
Closing Date certificates setting forth in reasonable detail the material terms (including any applicable notice requirements) of all Policies from the respective insurance companies (or their authorized agents) that issued the Policies, including
that such Policies may not be canceled or modified in any material respect without thirty (30) days’ prior notice to 

  

 103 








 
Lender, or ten (10) days’ notice with respect to nonpayment of premium. Borrowers shall deliver to Lender, concurrently with each change in any Policy,
a certificate with respect to such changed Policy certified by the insurance company issuing that Policy, in substantially the same form and containing substantially the same information as the certificates required to be delivered by Borrowers
pursuant to the first sentence of this clause (d)(ii) and stating that all premiums then due thereon have been paid to the applicable insurers and that the same are in full force and effect (or if such certificate and/or other information
described in clause (d)(ii) shall not be obtainable by Borrowers, Borrowers may deliver an Officer’s Certificate to such effect in lieu thereof). 
  
 (e) Renewal and Replacement of Policies. 
  
 (i) Not less than fifteen (15) Business Days prior to the expiration, termination or cancellation of any Policy, Borrowers shall renew
such policy or obtain a replacement policy or policies (or a binding commitment for such replacement policy or policies), which shall be effective no later than the date of the expiration, termination or cancellation of the previous policy, and
shall deliver to Lender a certificate in respect of such policy or policies (A) containing the same information as the certificates required to be delivered by Borrowers pursuant to clause (d)(ii) above, or a copy of the binding commitment
for such policy or policies and (B) confirming that such policy complies with all requirements hereof. 
  
 (ii) If Borrowers do not furnish to Lender the certificates as required under clause (e)(i) above, Lender may procure, but shall
not be obligated to procure, such replacement policy or policies and pay the Insurance Premiums therefor, and Borrowers agree to reimburse Lender for the cost of such Insurance Premiums promptly on demand. 
  
 (iii) Concurrently with the delivery of each replacement
policy or a binding commitment for the same pursuant to this clause (e), Borrowers shall deliver to Lender a report or attestation from a duly licensed or authorized insurance broker or from the insurer, setting forth the particulars as to
all insurance obtained by Borrowers pursuant to this Section 8.1 and then in effect and stating that all Insurance Premiums then due thereon have been paid in full to the applicable insurers, that such insurance policies are in full force and
effect and that, in the opinion of such insurance broker or insurer, such insurance otherwise complies with the requirements of this Section 8.1 (or if such report shall not be available after Borrowers shall have used reasonable efforts to
provide the same, Borrowers will deliver to Lender an Officer’s Certificate containing the information to be provided in such report). 
  
 (f) Separate Insurance. Borrowers will not take out separate insurance concurrent in form or contributing in the event of loss with that required
to be maintained pursuant to this Section 8.1 unless such insurance complies with clause (c) above. 
  
 (g) Securitization. Following any Securitization, Borrowers shall name any trustee, servicer or special servicer designated by Lender as a loss
payee, and any trustee, 

  

 104 








 
servicer and special servicer as additional insureds, with respect to any Policy for which Lender is to be so named hereunder. 
  
 8.1.2 Casualty; Application of Proceeds. 
  
 (a) Right to Adjust. 
  
 (i) If any Property is damaged or destroyed, in whole or in
part, by a Casualty, Borrowers shall give prompt written notice thereof to Lender, generally describing the nature and extent of such Casualty. Following the occurrence of a Casualty, Borrowers, regardless of whether proceeds are available, shall in
a reasonably prompt manner proceed to restore, repair, replace or rebuild the affected Property to the extent practicable to be of at least equal value and of substantially the same character as prior to the Casualty, all in accordance with the
terms hereof applicable to Alterations. 
  
 (ii)
Subject to clause (v) below, in the event of a Casualty where the loss does not exceed $500,000, Borrowers may settle and adjust such claim; provided that such adjustment is carried out in a competent and timely manner. In such case,
Borrowers are hereby authorized to collect and receipt for Lender any Proceeds. 
  
 (iii) Subject to clause (v) below, in the event of a Casualty where the loss exceeds $500,000, Borrowers may settle and adjust such claim
only with the consent of Lender (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and Lender shall have the opportunity to participate, at Borrowers’ cost, in any such adjustments. 
  
 (iv) The proceeds of any Policy shall be due and payable
solely to Lender and held and applied in accordance with the terms hereof (or, if mistakenly paid to any Borrower, shall be held in trust by such Borrower for the benefit of Lender and shall be paid over to Lender by such Borrower within one (1)
Business Day of receipt). 
  
 (v) Notwithstanding
the terms of clauses (ii) and (iii) above, Lender shall have the sole authority to adjust any claim with respect to a Casualty and to collect all Proceeds if an Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing. 
  
 (b) Right of the Borrowers to Apply to Restoration. In the event of
(i) a Casualty that does not constitute a Material Casualty, or (ii) a Condemnation that does not constitute a Material Condemnation, Lender shall permit the application of the Proceeds (after reimbursement of any expenses incurred by Lender) to
reimburse Borrowers for the cost of restoring, repairing, replacing or rebuilding or otherwise curing title defects at the applicable Property (the “Restoration”), in the manner required hereby, provided and on the condition
that (1) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be then continuing and (2) in the reasonable judgment of Lender: 
  
 (i) the applicable Property can be restored to an economic unit not less valuable (taking into account the effect of the termination of
any Leases or Material Agreements and the proceeds of any rental loss or business interruption insurance which any Borrower receives or is entitled to receive, in each case, due to such Casualty or 

  

 105 








 
Condemnation) and not less useful than the same was prior to the Casualty or Condemnation, 
  
 (ii) the applicable Property, after such Restoration and stabilization, will adequately secure the
outstanding balance of the Loan, 
  
 (iii) the
Restoration can be completed by the earliest to occur of: 
  
 (A) the 180th day following the receipt of the Proceeds (or if earlier, the 365th day after the Casualty or Condemnation, as applicable), or, with Rating Confirmation, such longer period as may reasonably be required;

  
 (B) the 180th day prior to the Maturity Date,
and 
  
 (C) with respect to a Casualty, the
expiration of the payment period on the rental loss or business interruption insurance coverage in respect of such Casualty; and 
  
 (iv) after receiving reasonably satisfactory evidence to such effect, during the period of the Restoration, the sum of (A) income derived
from the applicable Property, plus (B) proceeds of rental loss insurance or business interruption insurance, if any, payable together with such other monies as Borrowers may irrevocably make available for the Restoration, will equal or exceed 105%
of the sum of (1) Operating Expenses and (2) the Debt Service. 
  
 Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if any of the conditions set forth in sub-clauses (1) and (2) of the proviso in this clause (b) is not satisfied, then, unless Lender shall otherwise elect, at its sole option, the Proceeds shall be applied in the following order of
priority: (A) first, to prepay the principal of the Loan in an amount up to the Release Amount of the Property which suffered the Casualty or Condemnation; (B) second, to pay the amount of (1) all accrued and unpaid interest in respect of the
principal amount of the Debt so prepaid through the date which is the final day of the Interest Accrual Period in which such prepayment is made or, if prohibited by law, through the date of repayment plus Breakage Costs (including, if an Event of
Default has occurred and is then continuing, interest owed at the Default Rate), and (2) all other sums then due and owing under the Loan Documents; (C) third, to reimburse Lender for any fees and expenses of Lender incurred in connection therewith
(it being agreed that, upon satisfaction in full of the entitlements under clauses (A), (B) and (C) of this sentence, Borrowers shall be entitled to receive a release of the Lien of the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents with
respect to the affected Property in accordance with and subject to the terms of Section 2.5 hereof) and (D) fourth, to the First Mezzanine Loan Deposit Account (whether or not an “Event of Default” has occurred and is continuing
under any of the First Mezzanine Loan Documents) or, following the repayment of the First Mezzanine Loan to the Second Mezzanine Loan Deposit Account (whether or not an “Event of Default” has occurred and is continuing under any of the
Second Mezzanine Loan Documents). 
  
 (c) Material Casualty or
Condemnation and Lender’s Right to Apply. In the event of a Material Casualty or a Material Condemnation or any title claim or defect, then Lender shall have the option to (i) apply the Proceeds hereof in the following order of priority:


  

 106 








 
(A) first, to prepay the principal of the Loan in an amount up to the Release Amount of the Property which suffered the Casualty or Condemnation or title
claim; (B) second, to pay the amount of (1) all accrued and unpaid interest in respect of the principal amount of the Debt so prepaid through the date which is the final day of the Interest Accrual Period in which such prepayment is made or, if
prohibited by law, through the date of repayment plus Breakage Costs (including, if an Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing, interest owed at the Default Rate), and (2) all other sums then due and owing under the Loan Documents; (C)
third, to reimburse Lender for any fees and expenses of Lender incurred in connection therewith (it being agreed that, upon satisfaction in full of the entitlements under clauses (A), (B) and (C) of this sentence, Borrowers
shall be entitled to receive a release of the Lien of the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents with respect to the affected Property in accordance with and subject to the terms of Section 2.5 hereof); and (D) fourth, to the applicable
Mezzanine Loan Deposit Account, in accordance with the terms of Section 9.4.1(b) hereof (irrespective of whether or not an “Event of Default” has occurred and is continuing under any of the Mezzanine Loan Documents), or (ii) make
such Proceeds available to reimburse Borrowers for the cost of any Restoration or curing of such title defect in the manner set forth below in Section 8.1.2(e) hereof; provided, however, that, if the applicable Property
Management Agreement provides that the applicable Borrower is required to use the Proceeds to restore the Property in question and such Borrower does not have the right to terminate the applicable Property Management Agreement pursuant to the terms
of the applicable Property Management Agreement as a result of such Casualty or Condemnation or otherwise, then Lender shall be obligated to make such Proceeds available to such Borrower for the Restoration of such Property pursuant to clause
(e) below. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event of a Material Casualty or a Material Condemnation or title defect, where the applicable Borrower cannot restore, repair, replace or rebuild the affected Property
to be of at least equal value and of substantially the same character as prior to the Material Casualty or Material Condemnation or title defect because the affected Property is a legally non-conforming use or as a result of any other Legal
Requirement, Borrower hereby agrees that Lender may apply the Proceeds payable in connection therewith in accordance with clauses (A), (B), (C) and (D) above. 
  

(d) Intentionally Omitted. 
  
 (e) Manner of Restoration and Reimbursement. If a Borrower is entitled pursuant to Section 8.1.2(b) or (c) above to reimbursement out
of Proceeds (and the conditions specified therein shall have been satisfied), such Proceeds shall be disbursed on a monthly basis upon Lender’s being furnished with (i) such architect’s certificates, waivers of lien, contractor’s
sworn statements, title insurance endorsements, bonds, plats of survey and such other evidences of cost, payment and performance as Lender may reasonably require and approve, and (ii) all plans and specifications for such Restoration, such plans and
specifications to be approved by Lender prior to commencement of any work (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). In addition, no payment made prior to the Final Completion of the Restoration shall exceed ninety percent (90%) of
the aggregate value of the work performed from time to time; funds other than Proceeds shall be disbursed prior to disbursement of such Proceeds; and at all times, the undisbursed balance of such Proceeds remaining in the hands of Lender, together
with funds deposited for that purpose or irrevocably committed to the satisfaction of Lender by or on behalf of Borrowers for that purpose, shall be at least sufficient in the reasonable judgment of Lender to pay for the cost of completion of the
Restoration, free and clear of all Liens or claims 

  

 107 








 
for Lien. Prior to any disbursement, Lender shall have received evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the estimated cost of completion of the Restoration
(such estimate to be made by Borrowers’ architect or contractor and approved by Lender in its reasonable discretion), and Borrowers shall have deposited with Lender Eligible Collateral in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of such estimated
cost of completion over the net Proceeds. Any surplus which may remain out of Proceeds received pursuant to a Casualty shall be paid to Borrowers after payment of such costs of Restoration. Any surplus which may remain out of Proceeds received
pursuant to a Condemnation shall be delivered to Lender for deposit into the Deposit Account to be held and disbursed in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 
  
 8.1.3 Condemnation. 
  
 (a) Borrowers shall promptly give Lender written notice of the actual or threatened commencement of any Condemnation and shall deliver to Lender copies of
any and all papers served in connection with such Condemnation. Following the occurrence of a Condemnation, Borrowers, regardless of whether Proceeds are available, shall promptly proceed to restore, repair, replace or rebuild the same to the extent
practicable to be of at least equal value and of substantially the same character as prior to such Condemnation, all to be effected in accordance with the terms hereof applicable to Alterations. 
  
 (b) Lender is hereby irrevocably appointed as each Borrower’s
attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest, with exclusive power to collect, receive and retain any Proceeds in respect of a Condemnation and to make any compromise or settlement in connection with such Condemnation, subject to the provisions of
this Section. Provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (x) in the event of a Condemnation where the loss does not exceed $250,000, Borrowers may settle and compromise such Proceeds; provided that the same is effected in a
competent and timely manner, and (y) in the event of a Condemnation, where the loss exceeds $250,000, Borrowers may settle and compromise the Proceeds only with the consent of Lender (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and
Lender shall have the opportunity to participate, at Borrowers’ cost, in any litigation and settlement discussions in respect thereof. Notwithstanding any Condemnation by any public or quasi-public authority (including any transfer made in lieu
of or in anticipation of such a Condemnation), Borrowers shall continue to pay the Debt at the time and in the manner provided for in the Notes, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and the Debt shall not be reduced unless and until any
Proceeds shall have been actually received and applied by Lender to discharge the Debt, pay required interest and pay any other required amounts, in each case, pursuant to the terms of Sections 8.1.2(b) and (c) above. Lender shall not
be limited to the interest paid on the Proceeds by the condemning authority but shall be entitled to receive out of the Proceeds interest at the rate or rates provided in the Notes. Borrowers shall cause any Proceeds that are payable to Borrowers to
be paid directly to Lender to be held and applied in accordance with the terms hereof.

 ACCOUNTS AND RESERVES 
  
 Section 9.1. Establishment and Maintenance of Cash Management Deposit Account. 
  
 (a) On or prior to the Closing Date, Borrowers and Operating Lessees shall establish with Lender, or if Lender is not a
depository institution or if Lender shall otherwise elect, with one or more depository institutions selected by Lender, a separate deposit account (the “Deposit Account”) which has been established as a deposit account and a
separate holding account (the “Holding Account”) which has been established as a securities account. Both the Deposit Account and the Holding Account shall be in the name of and under the sole dominion and control of Lender, subject
only to Lender’s obligations hereunder to advance funds therefrom in accordance with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and no Borrower or Operating Lessee shall have the authority or power to make withdrawals from either the Deposit
Account or the Holding Account. Funds in either the Deposit Account or the Holding Account shall not be commingled with any other monies. Pursuant to the Deposit Account Agreement, Depositary Bank on a daily basis shall transfer all collected and
available funds as determined by Depositary Bank’s then current funds availability schedule received in the Deposit Account to the Holding Account. In recognition of Lender’s security interest in the funds deposited into the Deposit
Account and the Holding Account, Borrower and Operating Lessee shall identify both the Deposit Account and the Holding Account with the name of Lender, as secured party. The Deposit Account shall be named as follows: “DTRS Michigan
Avenue/Chopin Plaza SUB, LLC Deposit Account”. The Holding Account shall be named as follows: “DTRS Michigan Avenue/Chopin Plaza SUB, LLC Holding Account”. Without limiting the foregoing, all deposits into either the Deposit Account
or the Holding Account shall be applied and disbursed in accordance with the terms and provisions of Section 9.4 hereof and the Deposit Account Agreement. 
  
 (b) On or prior to the date the Interest Rate Cap Agreement is effective, Borrowers shall notify the Counterparty to make
all payments due to each Borrower under the Interest Rate Cap Agreement (and Borrowers shall similarly notify the Counterparty under any Replacement Interest Rate Cap Agreement or Extension Interest Rate Cap Agreement) payable directly to the
Deposit Account (the form of such notice shall be subject to the approval of Lender and, shall be irrevocable without the consent of Lender until the Debt has been paid in full), and if the Deposit Account is changed, a comparable notice shall be
sent to the Counterparty. If, notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 9.1(b), a Borrower receives any sums due under the Interest Rate Cap Agreement (or any Replacement Interest Rate Cap Agreement or Extension Interest Rate Cap
Agreement) then the applicable Borrower (x) shall be deemed to hold such amounts in trust for Lender and (y) shall deposit any such sums in the Deposit Account within one Business Day of receipt thereof. 
  
 (c) On or prior to the date hereof, (x) Operating Lessee shall notify each of
the Property Managers to make all payments due to Operating Lessee under the applicable Property Management Agreement and/or Operating Lease or otherwise payable (including any “key” or similar funds paid by any Property Manager or
Affiliate thereof) to Borrower or 

  

 109 








 
Operating Lessee but excluding only during any Low DSCR Period, any amount paid by any Property Manager directly to Sponsor pursuant to a direction letter by
Lender to the Property Manager directing such Property Manager to reimburse Sponsor for the payment of any insurance premiums, Operating Expenses, FF&E or Taxes for any Property paid by Sponsor pursuant to an Annual Budget provided that, to the
extent Lender had approval rights over such Annual Budget pursuant to Section 5.1(q)(ii), either (A) such Annual Budget has been expressly approved by Lender in writing or deemed approved by Lender in accordance with Section 5.1(q)(ii)
hereof or (B) prior to any such reimbursement (other than with respect to reimbursements for insurance premiums or Taxes paid in the ordinary course of business) such amount is first approved by Lender in writing in its sole and absolute discretion)
directly to the Deposit Account, and (y) Borrowers shall notify Operating Lessees to make all payments due to Borrowers under the Operating Leases (but only to the extent amounts received under the Operating Lease were not paid from amounts received
by the Operating Lessee pursuant to Sections 9.4.1 (xii), 9.2 or 9.3 hereof) directly into the Deposit Account (the form of such notice shall be subject to the approval of the Lender and, shall be irrevocable without the consent of Lender until the
Debt has been paid in full, it being understood that the notice contained in the Agreements with Managers is hereby approved by Lender). If the Deposit Account is changed, a comparable notice shall be sent to each Property Manager and Operating
Lessee. If, notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 9.1(c), a Borrower or Operating Lessee receives any sums due under a Property Management Agreement, Operating Lease (but only to the extent amounts received under the Operating Lease
were not paid from amounts received by the Operating Lessee pursuant to Sections 9.4.1(xii), 9.2 or 9.3 hereof) or other amount (including any “key” or similar funds paid by any Property Manager or Affiliate thereof to Borrower only during
any Low DSCR Period, any amount paid by any Property Manager directly to Sponsor pursuant to a direction letter by Lender to the Property Manager directing such Property Manager to reimburse Sponsor for the payment of any insurance premiums,
Operating Expenses, FF&E or Taxes for any Property paid by Sponsor pursuant to an Annual Budget provided that, to the extent Lender had approval rights over such Annual Budget pursuant to Section 5.1(q)(ii), either (A) such Annual Budget
has been expressly approved by Lender in writing or deemed approved by Lender in accordance with Section 5.1(q)(ii) hereof or (B) prior to any such reimbursement (other than with respect to reimbursements for insurance premiums or Taxes paid
in the ordinary course of business) such amount is first approved by Lender in writing in its sole and absolute discretion) otherwise payable to such Borrower or Operating Lessee (except for amounts payable to such Borrower or Operating Lessee
pursuant to Section 9.4.1 (xii) or amounts otherwise permitted to be paid or distributed to or on behalf of Borrowers or Operating Lessees under Section 9.2 or Section 9.3 hereof), then the applicable Borrower (x) shall be
deemed to hold such amounts in trust for Lender and (y) shall deposit any such sums in the Deposit Account within one Business Day of receipt thereof. Borrowers or Operating Lessees agree to provide Lender with written notice of any amounts
reimbursed to Sponsor pursuant to this Section within ten (10) Business Days from the date of such reimbursement. If and to the extent Sponsor or any affiliate (other than a Borrower or Operating Lessee) makes a capital expenditure with respect to a
Property that is provided for in an Annual Budget, provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower will be entitled to receive reimbursement from the applicable Property Manager from the FF&E reserve account established
under the applicable Property Management Agreement. 
  

 110 








 (d) Any other provisions of this Article IX notwithstanding, amounts deposited into any Reserve Account
and into the Tax and Insurance Escrow Account shall be funded from amounts distributed by Property Manager to Borrowers and Operating Lessee after giving effect to the provisions of the Property Management Agreement.

hereof; and 
  
 In addition, Borrowers shall establish the Tax and
Insurance Escrow Account as provided in Section 9.3 below. 
  
 Each of the
Deposit Account, the Holding Account, the Deferred Maintenance and Environmental Conditions Reserve Account, the Low Debt Service Reserve Account, the FF&E Reserve Account, the Deficiency Reserve Account, the Incentive Management Fee Reserve
Account, the Current Debt Service Reserve Account, and the Tax and Insurance Escrow Account (except for the Deposit Account, each, a “Reserve Account” and collectively, the “Reserve Accounts”) shall be in the name
of and under the sole dominion and control of Lender, subject only to Lender’s obligations hereunder to advance or otherwise disburse or apply funds therefrom in accordance with this Agreement, and no Borrower or Operating Lessee shall have the
authority or power to make withdrawals from the Reserve Accounts. The amount required in each Reserve Account as of the Closing Date may, at Lender’s election, be deposited on Borrowers’ behalf by Lender’s funding said amount out of
the Loan proceeds. Funds in each 

  

 111 








 
Reserve Account shall not be commingled with any other monies. Borrowers shall pay the costs of establishing and maintaining any Reserve Account, shall pay
the costs to maintain and shall maintain all Reserve Accounts throughout the term of the Loan. 
  
 9.2.2 Periodic Disbursements from the Deferred Maintenance and Environmental Conditions Reserve Account. Borrowers shall have the right to obtain disbursements from time to time with respect to the Deferred
Maintenance and Environmental Conditions Reserve Account, in accordance with Sections 7.1(g), 9.2.3 and 9.2.5, on the following terms and conditions: 
  
 (a) disbursements shall be made only to pay or to reimburse Borrowers in respect of actual costs of the work, which costs

 (c) Lender shall have received from Borrowers evidence reasonably
satisfactory to Lender that Borrowers have incurred such expenses and that the materials for which the request is made are on site at the applicable Property and are properly secured or have been installed in such Property, funds remaining in the
Deferred Maintenance and Environmental Conditions Reserve Account are, in Lender’s reasonable judgment, sufficient to pay the balance of the items contemplated to be funded therefrom when required to be so paid, and Lender shall receive any
Lien waivers or other releases which would customarily be obtained with respect to the work in question; 
  
 (d) Lender shall disburse from the Deferred Maintenance and Environmental Conditions Reserve Account, or authorize such disbursement, within five (5)
Business Days after the receipt of Borrowers’ request for such disbursement and the satisfaction of the other conditions set forth above in this Section, but in no event more often than once in any 30-day period, the amount requested by
Borrowers for such expenses, provided, however, that the Borrowers shall be permitted to make one additional disbursement request in any given 30-day period in an amount in excess of $250,000 and provided, further in no event
shall the amount so disbursed exceed the amount set forth in Schedule 1.1 attached hereto for the remediation of the item in question. 
  
 9.2.3 Final Disbursements from Deferred Maintenance and Environmental Conditions Reserve Account upon Completion or Determination. Upon the
completion of, as applicable, the remediation of all of the Deferred Maintenance Conditions and the Environmental Conditions, in each case to the reasonable satisfaction of Lender, Lender shall disburse to Borrowers from the Deferred Maintenance and
Environmental Conditions Reserve Account (in the case of the completion of the remediation of all of the Deferred Maintenance Conditions and 

  

 112 








 
the Environmental Conditions) any amounts remaining therein. In addition, if Lender shall determine in its discretion, reasonably exercised, and concurred in
by a Rating Confirmation, that one or more Deferred Maintenance Conditions or Environmental Conditions do not in fact require remediation, then Lender shall disburse from, as applicable, the Deferred Maintenance and Environmental Conditions Reserve
Account the amount reserved for such work (i.e., 125% of the originally estimated cost of such work). 
  
 9.2.4 Intentionally Omitted. 
  
 9.2.5 Release of Reserve Accounts upon Repayment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein: 
  
 (a) Lender shall pay to Borrowers and Operating Lessees, on the date that the
Debt shall be paid in full by Borrowers (so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing with respect to any Mezzanine Loan as evidenced by a Mezzanine Loan Default Notice delivered to Lender), all amounts remaining in the Holding
Account, the Reserve Accounts and the Deposit Account (or at the option, and written direction, of the Borrowers and Operating Lessees, Lender shall apply such amounts to the full payment of the Debt on such date). 
  
 (b) In the event of any prepayment of the Loan by the Borrowers that is
permitted or required under this Agreement (whether or not such prepayment is accompanied by the release of any Property), the Lender shall, provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, disburse to the Borrowers and Operating Lessees
(so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing with respect to any Mezzanine Loan as evidenced by a Mezzanine Loan Default Notice delivered to Lender) funds from the Current Debt Service Reserve Account (or, at the option and written
direction of Borrowers, Lender shall apply such amounts to such Prepayment and provide Borrowers and Operating Lessees a credit against any amounts due in connection with such Prepayment), representing the same proportion of the total amount
deposited in such accounts immediately prior to such disbursement as the amount of the Loan prepaid by the Borrowers bears to the total Debt outstanding immediately prior to such Prepayment. 
  
 (c) In the event of any prepayment of the Loan by the Borrowers that is
permitted or required under the Loan Agreement which prepayment includes a release of a Property pursuant to the provisions hereof, (i) the Lender shall, provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, disburse to the Borrowers and
Operating Lessees (so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing with respect to any Mezzanine Loan as evidenced by a Mezzanine Loan Default Notice delivered to Lender) funds from each of the Reserve Accounts (and subaccounts
thereof) (or, at the option and written direction of Borrowers, Lender shall apply such amounts to such Prepayment and provide Borrowers and Operating Lessees a credit against any amounts due in connection with such Prepayment) which are allocable
hereunder to the applicable Property, and (ii) thereafter, the on-going amounts which are required to be deposited into each of the Reserve Accounts (and subaccounts thereof) shall be reduced accordingly to reflect the release of such Property and
such Prepayment. 
  

 113 








 9.2.6 Obligations Unaffected. The insufficiency of any balance in any Reserve Account shall not
relieve any Borrower from its obligation to fulfill all preservation and maintenance covenants in the Loan Documents. 
  
 9.2.7 Establishment and Maintenance of Low Debt Service Reserve Account. On a monthly basis Lender will perform a DSCR Test to determine whether a
Low DSCR Period has occurred and is continuing (it being hereby agreed that (i) all determinations as to whether a Low DSCR Period has occurred and is continuing shall be made by Lender based on the financial information delivered by Borrowers
and/or Operating Lessees pursuant to Section 5.1(j)(v) hereof and (ii) a Low DSCR Period may occur more than once). Pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.4.1, during a Low DSCR Period, monies shall be
transferred in accordance with Section 9.4.1 hereof from the Holding Account into the Low Debt Service Reserve Account, established by Lender, and retained by Lender as additional security for the Debt and shall be applied or disbursed as
hereinafter provided. From and after the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default, Lender shall have the right to apply any amounts then remaining in the Low Debt Service Reserve Account to repay the Debt or any other amounts due hereunder
or under the other Loan Documents in such order, manner and amount as Lender shall determine in its sole discretion. Provided no monetary Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Lender shall instruct the Depositary Bank to
release to Borrowers and/or Operating Lessees (or, if Lender has received a Mezzanine Loan Default Notice(s), to the Mezzanine Loan Deposit Account corresponding to the most senior Mezzanine Loan for which a Mezzanine Loan Default Notice has been so
received) any amounts remaining in the Low Debt Service Reserve Account promptly after Borrowers or Operating Lessees provide Lender with evidence satisfactory to Lender indicating that the Properties have achieved the Aggregate DSCR requirement set
forth in the definition of Low DSCR Period in Section 1.1 hereof. 
  
 9.2.8 Intentionally Omitted. 
  
 9.2.9 Funding of Certain Reserve Accounts. (a) Notwithstanding any other provisions in this Section 9.2 to the contrary, Borrowers and Operating Lessees may satisfy the obligation to fund each or any of
the Reserve Accounts (or subaccounts thereof) other than the Current Debt Service Reserve Account and the Low Debt Service Reserve Account by delivering to Lender, a Credit Facility pledged to Lender permitting the drawing thereunder by Lender upon
presentation to the issuing bank of a notice from Lender that it is entitled to draw on such Credit Facility pursuant to this Agreement and otherwise in form and substance acceptable to Lender in the total amount of the sum required to be maintained
in such Reserve Account (or any subaccount thereof), provided that, if the sum required to be maintained in such Reserve Account (or any subaccount thereof) should change, the Borrowers or Operating Lessees as applicable shall immediately
change the total amount of such Credit Facility to reflect the same. In addition, at any time subsequent to the Closing Date, Borrowers and Operating Lessees may also satisfy the obligation to fund each or any of the Reserve Accounts (or subaccounts
thereof) other than the Current Debt Service Reserve Account and the Low Debt Service Reserve Account by delivering to Lender a Credit Facility pledged to Lender permitting the drawing thereunder by Lender upon presentation to the issuing bank of a
notice from Lender that it is entitled to draw on such Credit Facility pursuant to this Agreement and otherwise in form and substance acceptable to Lender in the total amount of the sum required to be maintained in each Reserve Account (or 

  

 114 








 
any subaccount thereof), provided that, if the sum required to be maintained in such Reserve Account (or any subaccount thereof) should change, the
Borrowers or Operating Lessees as applicable shall immediately change the total amount of such Credit Facility to reflect the same. Upon the issuance of a Credit Facility as described in the previous sentence, all funds on deposit in the applicable
Reserve Account (or subaccount thereof) shall be released to Borrowers and Operating Lessees. 
  
 (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, to the extent funds deposited in any Reserve Account have not been utilized during any Fiscal Year, such funds shall not be released to the Borrowers and
Operating Lessees and shall continue to remain in such Reserve Account, provided that, other than with respect to the FF&E Reserve Accounts, such remaining funds held in such Reserve Accounts shall be credited against future amounts
required to be deposited into such Reserve Accounts pursuant to the terms hereof. 
  
 9.2.10 Intentionally Omitted. 
  
 9.2.11 Deficiency Reserve Account. If at any time any Property Manager makes any payment on behalf of Borrower or Operating Lessee pursuant to any Property Management Agreement for such Property (any such payments, a
“Deficiency Payment”) on account of any working capital advance, shortfall or deficiency at any such Property or Properties, then, by no later than the Payment Date immediately following such payment or payments, and by no later
than each Payment Date thereafter to the extent necessary, Borrowers and Operating Lessees shall be required to make cash deposits into the Deficiency Reserve Account until such time as the aggregate amount on deposit in the Deficiency Reserve
Account shall equal the sum of all such payments. Provided no Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Lender shall disburse to Borrowers and Operating Lessees from the Deficiency Reserve Account an amount equal to the sum of any amounts
required to be paid and actually paid by the Borrowers or Operating Lessees to the Property Manager for such Property under the currently existing Property Management Agreement for such Property. 
  
 9.2.12 Intentionally Omitted. 
  
 9.2.13 Incentive Management Fee Reserve Account. (a) The Incentive
Management Fee Reserve Account shall consist of two (2) sub-accounts (each, an “Incentive Fee Sub-Account”), one corresponding to each Property. The funds in each Incentive Fee Sub-Account shall not be commingled with any other

respective Sub-Account. 
  
 (c) Upon the request of Borrowers or
Operating Lessees, Lender will, within five (5) Business Days after the receipt of such request and the satisfaction of the other 

  

 115 








 
conditions set forth in this Section, cause disbursements to the respective Borrowers or Operating Lessees from the applicable Incentive Fee Sub-Accounts to
pay or to reimburse Borrowers or Operating Lessees for actual costs incurred in connection with Incentive Fees at the applicable Property (to the extent such Incentive Fees are required under the applicable Property Management Agreement),
provided that (A) Lender has either received evidence of payment of Incentive Fees or received invoices evidencing that the Incentive Fees for which such disbursements are requested are due and payable, are in respect of Incentive Fees at the
applicable Property, and have not been previously paid; (B) any amounts previously disbursed pursuant to this paragraph have been properly applied; and (C) Lender has received an Officer’s Certificate confirming that the conditions in the
foregoing clauses (A) and (B) have been satisfied and that the copies of invoices (to the extent required above) attached to such Officer’s Certificate are true, complete and correct. 
  
 (d) The parties hereby expressly agree that, under no circumstance, shall
funds in any Incentive Fee Sub-Account be used to fund expenses of any kind incurred at any Property other than the Property to which such Sub-Account corresponds. 
  
 9.2.14 Intentionally Omitted.

 Section 9.3. Tax and Insurance Escrow Account. 
  
 9.3.1 Establishment. On the Closing Date, Borrowers and Operating Lessees shall establish and maintain with Lender, or if Lender is not a depository institution or if Lender shall otherwise elect, with one or
more depository institutions selected by Lender, a separate account (the “Tax and Insurance Escrow Account”) and, by no later than each Payment Date, Borrowers and Operating Lessees shall deposit or monies shall be transferred in
accordance with Section 9.4 hereof from the Holding Account into the Tax and Insurance Escrow Account: 
  
 (a) one-twelfth (1/12) of the Taxes and Other Charges that are payable by a Borrower or Operating Lessee (except to the extent that such amounts are paid,
reserved or set aside for such purpose by the applicable Property Manager) (plus any deficiency in any amounts required to be deposited into a tax and insurance premiums reserve account each month by a Property Manager pursuant to the Agreements
with Managers) that Lender reasonably estimates will be payable during the twelve (12) months next ensuing after such Payment Date in order to accumulate with Lender sufficient funds to pay all such Taxes and Other Charges at least thirty (30) days
prior to their respective past due dates, and 
  

 117 








 (b) at any time when the insurance required to be maintained pursuant to this Agreement is not provided
under a Blanket Policy in accordance with Article VIII hereof and the premiums in respect of such Blanket Policy are not paid or caused to be paid at least 3 months before such premiums become due and payable, one-twelfth (1/12) of the Insurance
Premiums that are paid by a Borrower or Operating Lessee (except to the extent that such amounts are paid, reserved or set aside for such purpose by the applicable Property Manager) pursuant to any Property Management Agreement or otherwise (plus
any deficiency in any amounts required to be deposited into a tax and insurance premiums reserve account each month by a Property Manager pursuant to the Agreements with Managers) that Lender estimates will be payable for the renewal of the coverage
afforded by the Policies upon the expiration thereof in order to accumulate with Lender sufficient funds to pay all such Insurance Premiums at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the Policies. 
  
 The Tax and Insurance Escrow Account shall be in the name of and under the sole dominion and
control of Lender, subject only to Lender’s obligations hereunder to advance funds therefrom in accordance with this Agreement, and no Borrower or Operating Lessee shall have the authority or power to make withdrawals from the Tax and Insurance
Escrow Account. Funds in the Tax and Insurance Escrow Account shall not be commingled with any other monies. Borrowers shall pay the costs of establishing and maintaining the Tax and Insurance Escrow Account. On the Closing Date, Borrowers and
Operating Lessees shall deposit to the Tax and Insurance Escrow Account an amount (the “Initial Tax and Insurance Escrow Amount”) equal to (i) the product of the next installment of Taxes and Other Charges that are payable by a
Borrower or Operating Lessee (rather than the applicable Property Manager) times a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of months in the installment period for such Taxes and Other Charges elapsed as of the Closing Date (rounded up to the
nearest integer) and the denominator of which is the number of months in such installment period, and (ii) the product of the next installment of Insurance Premiums that are payable by a Borrower or Operating Lessee (rather than the applicable
Property Manager) times a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of months in the installment period for such premiums elapsed as of the Closing Date (rounded up to the nearest integer) and the denominator of which is the number of months in
such installment period; provided that if Borrowers and Operating Lessees have a Blanket Policy that covers properties in addition to the Properties, Lender shall have the right to increase the amount required to be deposited into the Tax and
Insurance Escrow Account in an amount sufficient to purchase a non-blanket Policy in accordance with the terms of Section 8.1(d)(i) hereof. 
  
 9.3.2 Application Generally. To the extent required to be paid by a Borrower with respect to a Property, Lender will apply amounts in the Tax and
Insurance Escrow Account either: (x) to pay Taxes and Other Charges and Insurance Premiums required to be paid by Borrowers and Operating Lessees hereunder (and so long as the Tax and Insurance Escrow Account shall have a balance at least equal to
the then-payable Taxes, Other Charges and Insurance Premiums, Borrowers shall not be in default hereunder if Lender shall have not so applied such balance to the payment of such Taxes, Other Charges and Insurance Premiums, unless Lender shall have
not so applied such balance at the request of Borrowers or Operating Lessees) or (y) to reimburse Borrowers or Operating Lessees for such amounts upon presentation of evidence of payment and an Officer’s Certificate in form and substance
satisfactory to Lender, subject, however, to Borrowers’ and Operating Lessees’ right to contest Taxes and Other Charges in accordance with the terms hereof. In making any payment from or to the Tax and Insurance 

  

 118 








 
Escrow Account, Lender may do so according to any bill, statement or estimate procured from the appropriate public office (with respect to Taxes and Other
Charges) or insurer or agent (with respect to Insurance Premiums), without inquiry into the accuracy of such bill, statement or estimate or into the validity of any tax, assessment, sale, forfeiture, tax lien or title or claim thereof unless given
written notice by Borrowers or Operating Lessees of such inaccuracy, invalidity or other contest, in each case in accordance with Section 5.1(b)(ii) hereof. If the amount in the Tax and Insurance Escrow Account shall exceed the amounts due
for Taxes and Other Charges and Insurance Premiums, Lender shall, at its option, return any excess to Borrowers and Operating Lessees or credit such excess against future payments to be made to the Tax and Insurance Escrow Account. Provided no Event
of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrowers and Operating Lessees shall have the right to have Lender apply amounts deposited in the Tax and Insurance Escrow Account on account of Taxes and Other Charges toward the payment of such Taxes and
Other Charges prior to their delinquent dates for the purpose of achieving a discount on such Taxes and Other Charges. If at any time Lender determines that the amount in the Tax and Insurance Escrow Account is not or will not be sufficient to pay
the items set forth in Sections 9.3.1(a) and 9.3.1(b) above, Lender shall notify Borrowers of such determination and Borrowers shall increase their monthly payments to Lender by the amount that Lender estimates is sufficient to make up
the deficiency at least thirty (30) days prior to delinquency of the Taxes and Other Changes and/or expiration of the Policies, as the case may be. 
  
 9.3.3 Tax and Insurance Sub-Account. (a) On the Closing Date, Borrowers and Operating Lessees shall establish and maintain with Lender, or, if
Lender is not a depository institution or if Lender shall otherwise elect, with one or more depository institutions selected by Lender, a separate sub-account of the Tax and Insurance Escrow Account (the “Tax and Insurance
Sub-Account”). On the Closing Date, Lender shall deposit into the Tax and Insurance Sub-Account an amount equal to $0 (the “Initial Tax and Insurance Sub-Account Amount”) 
  
 (b) The parties hereby agree that, if, at any time, the aggregate Taxes,
Other Charges and (at any time when insurance required hereunder is not provided under a Blanket Policy) Insurance Premiums estimated by Lender to be payable by or on behalf of the Borrowers and Operating Lessees in respect of the Properties during
the ensuing twelve months increases over such aggregate as of the Closing Date, then, in the event of such an increase, by no later than the first Payment Date following such an increase, the Borrowers and Operating Lessees shall deposit, or monies
shall be transferred in accordance with Section 9.4 hereof from the Holding Account, into the Tax and Insurance Sub-Account, in an amount equal to the Tax and Insurance Incremental Amount at such time. The “Tax and Insurance
Incremental Amount” at any time means the positive excess (if any) of (i) an amount equal to one-twelfth of the aggregate Taxes, Other Charges and (at any time when insurance required hereunder is not provided under a Blanket Policy)
Insurance Premiums estimated by Lender to be payable by or on behalf of the Borrowers and Operating Lessees in respect of the Properties during the ensuing twelve months, over (ii) the amount then on deposit in the Tax and Insurance Sub-Account.

Lender), and that the amounts disbursed to such Operating Lessee pursuant to this clause (a)(ix) shall be used by such Operating Lessee solely to pay the applicable Operating Expenses (the receipt by the Operating Lessees of such funds pursuant to
this clause (a)(ix) shall constitute a representation and covenant by each Operating Lessee that the foregoing provisions of this clause (a)(ix) are accurate); 
  

(x) Tenth, to the extent Lender receives a First Mezzanine Lender Monthly Debt Service Notice, to the First Mezzanine Loan Deposit

 (b) Borrowers and
Operating Lessees hereby irrevocably direct that all funds in the Holding Account available for distribution to the Borrowers and Operating Lessees pursuant to Section 9.4.1(a)(xiv) and all funds otherwise distributable to Borrowers and
Operating Lessees under the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, any Proceeds otherwise available for distribution to the Borrowers and Operating Lessees pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement or any funds otherwise distributable to
Borrowers pursuant to the terms of Section 9.2.7 but excluding any amounts that in the ordinary course are due and payable out of any Reserve Account in payment of or reimbursement for payment of any cost or expense for which such Reserve
Account has been established (collectively, “Excess Cash Flow”) shall: (i) to the extent Lender has received a First Mezzanine Loan Default Notice and until such time as Lender receives a First Mezzanine Loan Default Revocation
Notice, be deposited directly into the First Mezzanine Loan Deposit Account for application as provided in the First Mezzanine Loan Agreement (in lieu of transferring such funds to such accounts of Borrowers as Borrowers may have so directed if

(in lieu of transferring such funds to such accounts of Borrowers or Operating Lessees as Borrowers or Operating Lessees may have so directed if Lender had not received such notice from Second Mezzanine Lender). The direction set forth in the
immediately preceding sentence shall not be changed or terminated without the written consent of each Mezzanine Lender. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary or in any other of the Loan Documents (1) no Mezzanine Loan Default Notice
shall be required for the deposit of Proceeds into the respective Mezzanine Loan Deposit Account in accordance with the terms of Sections 8.1.2(b) and (c) hereof, (2) Borrowers and Operating Lessees hereby agree that, if Lender is
required to pay any amounts it receives from Borrower or Operating Lessee to any of the Mezzanine Lenders pursuant to an intercreditor agreement, upon notice from Lender that such amounts have been paid over to any of the Mezzanine Lenders, such
amounts shall not be deemed a payment by Borrower or Operating Lessee to Lender hereunder and (3), if Lender receives any payment pursuant to the last sentence of Section 9.4.1(b) of any of the Mezzanine Loan Agreements, Lender hereby agrees
that it shall recognize such payment as a payment from Borrower or Operating Lessee hereunder. 
  
 9.4.2 Obligation to Fund; Deemed Payment. In the event that on any Payment Date the amount in the Holding Account shall be insufficient to make all of the transfers described in Sections 9.4.1(a)(i)
through and including (viii) as applicable, Borrowers shall deposit into the Deposit Account on such Payment Date the amount of such deficiency (without the need for any notice or demand from Lender (but subject to the terms of the
Deposit Account Agreement)), and if Borrowers shall fail to make such deposit, the same shall be an Event of Default and, in addition to all other rights and remedies provided for hereunder, Lender may disburse and apply the amounts in the Holding
Account in such order as Lender may determine. If on any Payment Date the amount in the Holding Account shall be sufficient to make all of the transfers described in Sections 9.4.1(a)(i) through and including (viii) as applicable,
Borrowers shall be deemed to have paid the Monthly Debt Service Payment Amount unless Lender is legally constrained from transferring such amount as aforesaid by reason of any insolvency related to any Borrower or any other event. 
  
 Section 9.5. No Release if Event of Default Exists. Notwithstanding
the terms hereof, in no event shall Lender have any obligation to disburse funds from the Deposit Account, the Holding Account, the Tax and Insurance Escrow Account or any other Reserve Account for so long as an Event of Default shall have occurred

Lessee hereby pledges, assigns and grants a security interest to Lender, as security for payment of all sums due in respect of the Loan and the performance of all other terms, conditions and covenants of this Agreement and any other Loan Document on
such Borrower’s part to be paid and performed, in all of such Borrower’s and Operating Lessee’s right, title and interest in and to the Deposit Account, the Holding Account and each Reserve Account (including, without limitation, the
Tax and Insurance Escrow Account), together with the deposits therein, including all interest earned thereon and Permitted Investments held therein. No Borrower or Operating Lessee shall, without obtaining the prior written consent of Lender,
further pledge, assign or grant any security interest in the Deposit 

  

 123 








 
Account, the Holding Account or any Reserve Account (including, without limitation, the Tax and Insurance Escrow Account), or permit any Lien or encumbrance
to attach thereto, or any levy to be made thereon, or any UCC-1 Financing Statements or any other notice or instrument as may be required under the UCC, as appropriate, except those naming Lender as the secured party, to be filed with respect
thereto. 
  
 (b) Upon the occurrence and continuation of an Event
of Default, Lender may apply amounts in the Deposit Account, the Holding Account and any Reserve Account (including the Tax and Insurance Escrow Account) (or any portion thereof) for any of the following purposes relating to the Loan or
Borrowers’ or Operating Lessees’ obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, and in any order, as Lender shall elect in its sole discretion: (i) Taxes and Other Charges; (ii) Insurance Premiums; (iii) interest on the unpaid
principal balance of the Notes; (iv) amortization of the unpaid principal balance of the Notes; (v) completion of all work required to be performed hereunder; (vi) reimbursement of Lender for all losses and expenses (including reasonable legal fees
and disbursements) suffered or incurred by Lender as a result of such Event of Default; (vii) the cost of any necessary or reasonable repair or replacement to any Property; (viii) payment of any amount expended in exercising rights and remedies
available to Lender at law or in equity or under this Agreement or under any of the other Loan Documents; (ix) Operating Expenses; or (x) any other portion of the Debt. 
  
 Section 9.7. Lender Not Responsible. Nothing in this Article IX or elsewhere in the Loan Documents shall make
Lender responsible for making or completing any work in respect of any Property, or obligate Lender to demand from any Borrower additional sums to make or complete any work. 
  
 Section 9.8. Inspections; Undertaking of Work. 
  
 (a) Subject to the applicable Property Management Agreement, Borrowers and Operating Lessees shall permit Lender and
Lender’s agents and representatives (including any servicer or special servicer in connection with a Securitization or Lender’s engineer, architect or inspector) to enter onto the applicable Property during normal business hours after
reasonable notice (subject to the rights of Tenants under the Leases other than the Operating Leases) to inspect the progress of any work being performed by or on behalf of any Borrower or Operating Lessee, including any Alterations, and all
materials being used in connection therewith, to examine all plans and shop drawings relating thereto and, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to undertake and complete any work required to be undertaken in
accordance with the terms hereof. Borrowers shall cause all contractors and subcontractors to cooperate with Lender or Lender’s representatives or such other persons described above in connection with inspections described in this Section
9.8 or the undertaking or completion of work pursuant to this Section 9.8. 
  
 (b) Subject to the applicable Property Management Agreement, Lender may inspect the applicable Property in connection with any work undertaken by or on behalf of any Borrower or Operating Lessee at such Property
(subject to the limitations set forth in Section 9.8(a) above) prior to disbursing funds, from any Reserve Account or otherwise, for such work. Lender, at Borrowers’ expense, may require that such inspection be conducted by an
appropriate independent qualified professional selected by Lender and/or may require a copy of a certificate 

  

 124 








 
of completion by an independent qualified professional acceptable to Lender prior to the disbursement of any amounts therefor. Borrowers shall pay a
reasonable inspection fee for each inspection conducted by a third party. 
  
 (c) Borrowers and Operating Lessees shall collaterally assign to Lender, as additional security for the Loan, to the extent permitted, all rights and claims any Borrower or Operating Lessee may have against all
Persons supplying labor or materials in connection with any Alterations; provided, however, Lender may not pursue any such right or claim unless an Event of Default has occurred and remains uncured. 
  
 Section 9.9. Bankruptcy. Each Borrower and Lender hereby acknowledge
and agree that upon the filing of a bankruptcy petition by or against any Borrower or Operating Lessee under the Bankruptcy Code, the Reserve Accounts and the Adjusted Operating Income (whether then already in the Reserve Account, or then due or
becoming due thereafter) shall be deemed not to be property of the applicable Borrower’s or Operating Lessee’s bankruptcy estate within the meaning of Section 541 of the Bankruptcy Code. In the event, however, that a court of competent
jurisdiction determines that, notwithstanding the foregoing characterization of the Reserve Accounts and the Adjusted Operating Income by each Borrower, Operating Lessee and Lender, the Reserve Accounts and/or the Adjusted Operating Income do
constitute property of the applicable Borrower’s or Operating Lessee’s bankruptcy estate, then each Borrower, Operating Lessee and Lender hereby further acknowledge and agree that all such Adjusted Operating Income, whether due and payable
before or after the filing of the petition, are and shall be cash collateral of Lender. Each Borrower and Operating Lessee acknowledges that Lender does not consent to any Borrower’s or Operating Lessee’s use of such cash collateral and
that, in the event Lender elects (in its sole discretion) to give such consent, such consent shall only be effective if given in writing signed by Lender. Except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, no Borrower or Operating Lessee
shall have the right to use or apply or require the use or application of such cash collateral (i) unless the applicable Borrower or Operating Lessee shall have received a court order authorizing the use of the same, and (ii) the applicable Borrower
or Operating Lessee shall have provided such adequate protection to Lender as shall be required by the bankruptcy court in accordance with the Bankruptcy Code.

(vi), (vii) or (viii) above, the Debt and all other obligations of any Borrower hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall immediately and automatically become due and payable, without notice or demand, and each Borrower
hereby expressly waives any such notice or demand, anything contained herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding), and Lender may enforce or avail itself of any or all rights or remedies provided in the Loan Documents
against any Borrower and all or any portion of a Property, including all rights or remedies available at law or in equity. 
  
 (c) Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default, Lender may, but without any obligation to do so and without notice to or
demand on any Borrower and without releasing any Borrower from any obligation hereunder, take any action to cure such Event of Default. Lender may enter upon any Property upon reasonable notice to Borrowers for such purposes or appear in, defend, or
bring any action or proceeding to protect their interests and the interests of Lender in such Property or to foreclose the applicable Mortgage or collect the Debt. The costs and expenses incurred by Lender in exercising rights under this paragraph
(including reasonable attorneys’ fees to the extent permitted by law), with interest at the Default Rate for the period after notice from the Lender that such costs or expenses were incurred to the date of payment to Lender, shall constitute a
portion of the Debt, shall be secured by the Mortgages and the other Loan Documents and shall be due and payable to Lender upon demand therefor. 
  
 (d) Notwithstanding anything contained herein or in the other Loan Documents, if an Event of Default is caused by a Default in respect of a Property (such
as, without limitation, a Default arising from an inability to maintain a material license for the operation of a Property), then, provided (i) Lender shall have not accelerated the Loan, and (ii) the elimination of such Property from the
collateral securing the Loan and from the ownership of Borrowers would eliminate the condition or circumstance giving rise to the Event of Default, then Borrowers may, after the expiration of the Lockout Period, by notice to Lender, elect to prepay
the Loan in the manner provided in (and subject to the requirements of) Section 2.4 in an amount equal to the Release Amount of such Property, so as to obtain the release thereof from the Lien of the applicable Mortgage pursuant to Section
2.5, together with accrued interest in respect of such amount through the end of the applicable Interest Accrual Period. Upon such prepayment and release, such Event of Default shall be deemed cured hereunder. 
  
 Section 10.2. Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the
continuation of an Event of Default, all or any one or more of the rights, powers, privileges and other remedies available to Lender against any Borrower under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents executed and delivered by, or
applicable to, any Borrower or at law (including, without limitation, an action for collection) or in equity may be exercised by Lender at any time and from time to time, whether or not all or any of the Debt shall be declared due and payable, and
whether or not Lender shall have commenced any foreclosure proceeding or other action for 

  

 128 








 
the enforcement of its rights and remedies under any of the Loan Documents with respect to all or any portion of a Property. Any such actions taken by Lender
shall be cumulative and concurrent and may be pursued independently, singly, successively, together or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Lender may determine in its sole discretion, to the fullest extent permitted by law, without
impairing or otherwise affecting the other rights and remedies of Lender permitted by law, equity or contract or as set forth herein or in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Borrower agrees that if an
Event of Default is continuing (i) Lender is not subject to any “one action” or “election of remedies” law or rule, and (ii) all liens and other rights, remedies or privileges provided to Lender shall remain in full force and
effect until Lender has exhausted all of its remedies against each Property and each Mortgage has been foreclosed, sold and/or otherwise realized upon in satisfaction of the Debt or the Debt has been paid in full. 
  
 Section 10.3. Remedies Cumulative. The rights, powers and remedies of
Lender under this Agreement shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any other right, power or remedy which Lender may have against any Borrower pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or existing at law or in equity or otherwise.
Lender’s rights, powers and remedies may be pursued singly, concurrently or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Lender may determine in Lender’s sole discretion. No delay or omission to exercise any remedy, right or power accruing
upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default shall impair any such remedy, right or power or shall be construed as a waiver thereof, but any such remedy, right or power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may
be deemed expedient. A waiver of one Default or Event of Default with respect to a Borrower shall not be construed to be a waiver of any subsequent Default or Event of Default with respect to any Borrower or to impair any remedy, right or power
consequent thereon. 
  
 ARTICLE XI 
  
 PROPERTY MANAGEMENT 
  
 Section 11.1. Property Management. 
  
 (a) Each Borrower or Operating Lessee represents, warrants and covenants that
each Property shall at all times be managed by an Acceptable Property Manager pursuant to an Acceptable Property Management Agreement. 
  
 (b) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein or in the other Loan Documents, except as provided in this Section 11.1(b), no
Borrower or Operating Lessee may amend, modify, supplement, alter or waive any right under any Property Management Agreement without the receipt of a Rating Confirmation. Without the receipt of a Rating Confirmation, a Borrower or Operating Lessee
shall be permitted to make any nonmaterial modification, change, supplement, alteration or amendment to any Property Management Agreement and to waive any nonmaterial rights thereunder, provided that no such modification, change, supplement,
alteration, amendment or waiver shall affect the cash management procedures set forth in the Property Management Agreements or the Loan Documents, decrease the cash flow of the applicable Property covered thereunder, adversely affect the
marketability of the applicable Property covered thereunder, change the definitions of 

  

 129 








 
“default” or “event of default,” change the definitions of “operating expense” or words of similar meaning to add additional
items to such definitions, change the definitions of “owner’s distribution” or “owner’s equity” or “debt service amount” or words of similar meaning so as to reduce the payments due the related Borrower or
Operating Lessee thereunder, change the timing of remittances to the related Borrower thereunder, increase or decrease reserve requirements, change the term of such Property Management Agreement or increase any Management Fees payable under such
Property Management Agreement. 
  
 (c) A Borrower or Operating
Lessee may enter into a new Property Management Agreement with an Acceptable Property Manager upon receipt of a Rating Confirmation with respect to such Property Management Agreement. 
  
 (d) Borrower and Operating Lessee hereby agrees that subject to the terms of the respective Property Management Agreement,
Agreements with Managers and Acceptable Property Management Agreements, Lender shall have the right to terminate and replace property managers subsequent to (i) an Event of Default under this Agreement and (ii) an acceleration of the Loan.

  
 ARTICLE XII 
  
 MISCELLANEOUS 
  
 Section 12.1. Survival. This Agreement and all covenants, agreements,
representations and warranties made herein and in the certificates delivered pursuant hereto shall survive the making by Lender of the Loan and the execution and delivery to Lender of the Notes, and shall continue in full force and effect so long as
all or any of the Debt of Borrowers is outstanding and unpaid. Whenever in this Agreement any Person is referred to, such reference shall be deemed to include the legal representatives, successors and assigns of such Person (provided that the
foregoing shall not be deemed to permit any transfer of any ownership interest that is otherwise prohibited hereunder). All covenants, promises and agreements in this Agreement contained, by or on behalf of any Borrower, shall inure to the benefit
of the respective legal representatives, successors and assigns of Lender. 
  
 Section 12.2. Permitted Investments; Eligible Accounts; Eligible Institutions. Lender shall invest any amounts to be held by Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document
(other than amounts held in the Deposit Account, which may be an interest bearing account), pending the application of such amounts to the purposes herein or therein provided, in one of the Permitted Investments as directed by Borrowers from time to
time (provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing); or Lender from time to time (if any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing). Lender shall not be responsible for its inability to invest funds received after 1:30 p.m. New
York City time, but shall invest such sums on the following Business Day. After application to the purposes for which any amounts invested pursuant to this Section 12.2 are held and so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing hereunder, any investment income earned from such investments shall be paid to Borrowers. All accounts maintained hereunder, including the Deposit Account, the Holding Account, the Tax and Insurance Escrow Account and the other Reserve
Accounts, shall, at Lender’s election, be Eligible Accounts. No Eligible Account shall be evidenced by a certificate 

  

 130 








 
of deposit, passbook or other instrument. Each Eligible Account (A) shall be a separate and identifiable account from all other funds held by the holding
institution, (B) shall be established and maintained in the name of the Lender (and subsequent to any Securitization, shall bear a designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein are held for the benefit of the holders of the Notes),
(C) shall be under the sole dominion and control of Lender, and should contain only funds held for its benefit. Following a rating downgrade, withdrawal, qualification or suspension of an Eligible Institution which maintains an Eligible Account each
such Eligible Account must promptly (and in any case within not more than thirty (30) calendar days) be moved to a qualifying Eligible Institution. The out-of-pocket costs reasonably incurred in establishing and maintaining any account or reserve
held by Lender pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be borne by Borrowers.

Waiver in Writing. No modification, amendment, extension, discharge, termination or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, or of the Notes, or of any other Loan Document, nor consent to any departure by any Borrower 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 any Borrower, shall entitle a Borrower to any other or future notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances. 
  
 Section 12.5. Delay Not a Waiver. 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 the Notes 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 other Loan Documents, or to declare a default for failure to effect prompt payment of any such other amount.

WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR IN TORT, AND WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY FULLY TO THE EXTENT THAT ANY SUCH RIGHT SHALL NOW OR HEREAFTER EXIST WITH REGARD TO THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, OR ANY CLAIM, COUNTERCLAIM OR OTHER ACTION ARISING IN CONNECTION THEREWITH.
THIS 

  

 133 








 
WAIVER OF RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IS GIVEN KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY BY EACH OF LENDER AND EACH BORROWER AND IS INTENDED TO ENCOMPASS INDIVIDUALLY EACH
INSTANCE AND EACH ISSUE AS TO WHICH THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY WOULD OTHERWISE ACCRUE. LENDER AND EACH BORROWER ARE HEREBY AUTHORIZED TO FILE A COPY OF THIS PARAGRAPH IN ANY PROCEEDING AS CONCLUSIVE EVIDENCE OF THIS WAIVER. 
  
 Section 12.8. Headings. The Article and/or Section headings and the
Table of Contents in this Agreement are included herein for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement for any other purpose. 
  
 Section 12.9. Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner
as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, 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. 
  
 Section 12.10. Preferences. Subject to Article IX hereof, Lender shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply or reverse and reapply any and all payments by Borrowers to any portion of the
obligations of Borrowers hereunder. To the extent any Borrower makes a payment or payments to Lender, 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 bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then, to the extent of such payment or proceeds received, 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. 
  
 Section 12.11. Waiver of Notice. No Borrower shall be entitled to any notices of any nature whatsoever from Lender except with respect to matters
for which this Agreement or the other Loan Documents specifically and expressly provide 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. Each Borrower hereby expressly waives the right to receive any notice from Lender with respect to any matter for which this Agreement or the other Loan Documents do not specifically and expressly provide for
the giving of notice by Lender to Borrowers. 
  
 Section 12.12.
Remedies of Borrowers. In the event that a claim or adjudication is made that Lender or its agents, including any servicer or special servicer in connection with a Securitization, have acted unreasonably or unreasonably delayed (or refrained
from), acting in any case where by law or under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, Lender or such agent, as the case may be, has an obligation to act reasonably or promptly, each Borrower agrees that neither Lender nor its agents, including
any servicer and special servicer in connection with a Securitization, shall be liable for any monetary damages, and Borrowers’ sole remedies shall be limited to commencing an action seeking injunctive relief or declaratory judgment, except in
any instance in which it has been finally determined that Lender’s action, delay or inaction has constituted gross negligence, fraud, willful misconduct or an illegal act. 

  

 134 








 
The parties hereto agree that any action or proceeding to determine whether Lender has acted reasonably shall be determined by an action seeking declaratory
judgment. 
  
 Section 12.13. Expenses; Indemnity. (a) Each
Borrower covenants and agrees to reimburse Lender upon receipt of written notice from Lender for all (i) Lender Expenses; (ii) costs and expenses reasonably incurred by Lender in connection with (A) Borrowers’ ongoing performance of and
compliance with Borrowers’ respective agreements and covenants contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents on its part to be performed or complied with after the Closing Date, including confirming compliance with environmental and
insurance requirements; (B) the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and administration of any consents, amendments, waivers or other modifications to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other documents or matters requested
by any Borrower or by Lender; (C) filing and recording fees and expenses, title insurance and reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for providing to Lender all required legal opinions, and other similar expenses incurred in creating and
perfecting the Liens in favor of Lender pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; (D) enforcing or preserving any rights, in response to third party claims or the prosecuting or defending of any action or proceeding or other
litigation, in each case against, under or affecting Borrowers, this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any other security given for the Loan or the Properties; and (E) enforcing any obligations of or collecting any payments due from any
Borrower under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or with respect to the Properties or in connection with any refinancing or restructuring of the credit arrangements provided under this Agreement in the nature of a “work-out” or of
any insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings; provided , however, that Borrowers shall not be liable for the payment of any such costs and expenses to the extent the same arise by reason of the gross negligence, illegal acts, fraud or
willful misconduct of Lender. Any costs and expenses due and payable to Lender hereunder which are not paid by Borrowers within thirty (30) days after demand may be paid from any amounts in the Holding Account, with notice thereof to Borrowers.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, except as provided in Article XIII herein, Borrower shall not be required to pay (and Lender shall promptly reimburse Borrower for) any costs or expenses relating to the securitization, syndication or sale of
participation interests in the Loan, other than Borrower’s internal costs and expenses and the fees and disbursements of Borrower’s counsel with the review of any documentation related to such transactions and the delivery of legal
opinions (other than a 10(b)(5) opinion) in connection with any such securitization, syndication or sale or participation interests in the Loan, provided Borrowers and Mezzanine Borrowers shall not be required to incur unreimbursed third party costs
and expenses in excess of $10,000 in the aggregate with all other such expenses incurred by Borrowers and Mezzanine Borrowers with respect to the Mezzanine Loans. 
  
 (b) Borrowers shall indemnify and hold harmless Lender from and against any and all other liabilities, obligations, losses,
damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for Lender in connection with any investigative, administrative or
judicial proceeding commenced or threatened, whether or not Lender shall be designated a party thereto), that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against Lender in any manner relating to or arising out of any breach by any Borrower of its
obligations under, or any misrepresentation by any Borrower contained in, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents; provided, however, no Borrower shall be liable for the payment of any such costs 

  

 135 








 
and expenses to the extent the same arise by reason of the gross negligence, illegal acts, fraud or willful misconduct of Lender. Any costs and expenses due
and payable to Lender hereunder which are not paid by Borrowers within ten (10) days after demand may be paid from any amounts in the Holding Account, with notice thereof to Borrowers. 
  
 Section 12.14. Exhibits and Schedules Incorporated. The Exhibits and Schedules annexed hereto are hereby incorporated
herein as a part of this Agreement with the same effect as if set forth in the body hereof. 
  
 Section 12.15. Offsets, Counterclaims and Defenses. Any assignee of Lender’s interest in and to this Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents shall take the same free and clear of all offsets,
counterclaims or defenses which are unrelated to such documents which any Borrower may otherwise have against any assignor of such documents, and no such unrelated counterclaim or defense shall be interposed or asserted by a Borrower in any action
or proceeding brought by any such assignee upon such documents and any such right to interpose or assert any such unrelated offset, counterclaim or defense in any such action or proceeding is hereby expressly waived by each Borrower. 
  
 Section 12.16. No Joint Venture or Partnership. Borrowers and Lender
intend that the relationships created hereunder and under the other Loan Documents be solely that of borrower and lender. Nothing herein or therein is intended to create a joint venture, partnership, tenancy-in-common, or joint tenancy relationship
between Borrowers and Lender nor to grant Lender any interest in the Properties other than that of mortgagee or lender. 
  
 Section 12.17. Publicity. All news releases, publicity or advertising by any Borrower or its Affiliates through any media intended to reach the
general public which refers to the Loan Documents or the financing evidenced by the Loan Documents, to Lender, the Loan purchaser, the servicer or the trustee in a Securitization shall be subject to the prior written approval of Lender. 

 
 Section 12.18. Waiver of Marshalling of Assets. To the fullest
extent Borrowers may legally do so, each Borrower waives all rights to a marshalling of the assets of Borrowers, Borrowers’ partners, if any, and others with interests in Borrowers, and of the Properties, 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 marshalling of assets, the sale in inverse order of alienation, homestead exemption, the administration of
estates of decedents, or any other matters whatsoever to defeat, reduce or affect the right of Lender under the Loan Documents to a sale of any one or more of the Properties for the collection of the related Debt without any prior or different
resort for collection, of the right of Lender or any deed of trust trustee to the payment of the related Debt out of the net proceeds of the Properties in preference to every other claimant whatsoever. In addition, each Borrower, for itself and its
successors and assigns, waives in the event of foreclosure of any or all of the Mortgage, any equitable right otherwise available to any Borrower which would require the separate sale of portions of a Property. 
  
 Section 12.19. Waiver of Counterclaim. Each Borrower hereby waives the
right to assert a counterclaim, other than a compulsory counterclaim, in any action or proceeding 

  

 136 








 
brought against it by Lender or its agents, including any servicer and special servicer in connection with a Securitization. 
  
 Section 12.20. Conflict; Construction of Documents. In the event of
any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and any of the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Agreement shall control. The parties hereto acknowledge that they were represented by counsel in connection with the negotiation and
drafting of the Loan Documents and that such Loan Documents shall not be subject to the principle of construing their meaning against the party which drafted same. 
  
 Section 12.21. Brokers and Financial Advisors. Each Borrower hereby represents that it has dealt with no financial
advisors, brokers, underwriters, placement agents, agents or finders in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Borrowers hereby indemnify Lender and hold Lender harmless from and against any and all claims, liabilities,
costs and expenses of any kind in any way relating to or arising from a claim by any Person that such Person acted on behalf of any Borrower in connection with the transactions contemplated herein. The provisions of this Section 12.21 shall
survive the expiration and termination of this Agreement and the repayment of the Debt. 
  
 Section 12.22. No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents are solely for the benefit of Lender and the Borrowers, and nothing contained in this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents shall be deemed to confer upon anyone other than Lender and Borrowers any right to insist upon or to enforce the performance or observance of any of the obligations contained herein or therein; provided, however, that it is
hereby agreed by Lender and Borrowers that the provisions of Section 9.4.1(b) and the provisions of Sections 8.1.2(b) and (c) and 9.2.7 (to the extent they relate to disbursements of funds to any Mezzanine Loan Deposit
Account and/or to pay amounts owed in connection with the Mezzanine Loans) are intended to confer upon Mezzanine Lenders the right to insist upon and to enforce the performance and observance of the obligations expressly set forth therein. All
conditions to the obligations of Lender to make the Loan hereunder are imposed solely and exclusively for the benefit of Lender, and no other Person shall have standing to require satisfaction of such conditions in accordance with their terms or be
entitled to assume that Lender will refuse to make the Loan in the absence of strict compliance with any or all thereof and no other Person shall under any circumstances be deemed to be a beneficiary of such conditions, any or all of which may be
freely waived in whole or in part by Lender if, in Lender’s sole discretion, Lender deems it advisable or desirable to do so. 
  
 Section 12.23. Prior Agreements. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents contain the entire agreement of the parties hereto and thereto in
respect of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and all prior agreements among or between such parties, whether oral or written, between any Borrower and Lender are superseded by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

  
 Section 12.24. Exculpation. Anything contained herein,
in the Notes or in any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding (except as set forth in the balance of this Section or in the Environmental Indemnity), no recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal or interest on the Notes or
for any other portion of the Debt hereunder or under the 

  

 137 








 
other Loan Documents against (i) any Affiliate, parent company, trustee or advisor of any Borrower or owner of a direct or indirect Beneficial or equitable
interest in a Borrower or Sponsor, any member in any Borrower, or any partner, shareholder or member therein (other than against Sponsor pursuant to the Sponsor Indemnity Agreement); (ii) any legal representative, heir, estate, successor or assign
of any thereof; (iii) any corporation (or any officer, director, employee or shareholder thereof), individual or entity to which any ownership interest in any Borrower shall have been transferred; (iv) any purchaser of any asset of any Borrower; or
(v) any other Person (except Borrowers), for any deficiency or other sum owing with respect to the Notes or the Debt. It is understood that the Notes and the Debt (except as set forth in the balance of this Section 12.24 and in the
Environmental Indemnity) may not be enforced against any Person described in clauses (i) through (v) above (other than against Sponsor pursuant to the Sponsor Indemnity Agreement as set forth in clause (i) above) and Lender
agrees not to sue or bring any legal action or proceeding against any such Person in such respect. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the foregoing shall not: (a) prevent recourse to the Borrowers or the assets of any Borrower, or enforcement of the
Mortgages or other instrument or document by which Borrowers are bound pursuant to the Loan Documents; (b) estop Lender from instituting or prosecuting a legal action or proceeding or otherwise making a claim against Borrower as a result of any of
the following or against the Person or Persons committing any of the following: (i) fraud or intentional misrepresentation by any Borrower or Operating Lessee in connection with the Loan, (ii) the misappropriation by any Borrower or Operating Lessee
or any Affiliate of Borrower or Operating Lessee of any Proceeds (including, without limitation, any Rents and any security deposits), (iii) the breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or indemnification provision in the Environmental
Indemnity, (iv) any transfer in violation of Section 6.1(i) or otherwise violate the provisions of such Section 6.1(i), (v) any loss, damage, cost or expense incurred by or on behalf of Lender by reason of all or any part of the Property, the
Deposit Account, the Holding Account, the Reserve Accounts or the Rate Cap Agreement being encumbered by a Lien (other than pursuant to the Loan Documents in favor of Lender) in violation of the Loan Documents, (vi) physical damage to any Property
from intentional waste committed by any Borrower or Operating Lessee or any Affiliate of any Borrower or Operating Lessee, (vii) any loss, damage, cost or expense incurred by or on behalf of Lender by reason of the failure of any Borrower and/or
Operating Lessee to comply with any of the provisions of Article XIV hereof, (viii) any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, causes of action,
suits, claims, demands and adjustments of any nature or description whatsoever) which may at any time be imposed upon, incurred by or awarded against Lender, in the event (and arising out of such circumstances) that (x) any Borrower should raise any
defense, counterclaim and/or allegation in any foreclosure action by Lender relative to the Property, the Deposit Account, the Holding Account, the Reserve Accounts or assignment of any Borrower’s rights to the Interest Rate Cap Agreement
(including the right to receive any proceeds derived therefore) or any part thereof which is found by a court to have been raised by any Borrower or Operating Lessee in bad faith or to be wholly without basis in fact or law, or (y) an involuntary
case is commenced against any Borrower or Operating Lessee under the Bankruptcy Code with the collusion of any Borrower or Operating Lessee, Sponsor or any of their Affiliates or (z) an order for relief is entered with respect to any Borrower or
Operating Lessee under the Bankruptcy Code through the actions of any Borrower or Operating Lessee, Sponsor or any of their Affiliates, (ix) any loss, damage, cost or expense incurred by or on behalf of Lender (including, by (i) any successor and or
assign of Lender or (ii) 

  

 138 








 
any nominee, designee or purchaser of any portion of the Loan or Properties in connection with a foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure transaction) by
reason of the failure of any Borrower to complete and pay for the work set forth on attached Exhibit E at the Properties; or (x) attorney’s fees, costs and expenses incurred by Lender, its agent or any servicer of the Loan in connection
with any successful suit by Lender to enforce the terms of the Loan Documents; or (c) estop Lender from enforcing its rights under the indemnity agreement being executed concurrently herewith by the Sponsor in favor of the Lender, for losses caused
by any of the foregoing items set forth in section (b) above. Borrower hereby agrees that notwithstanding any provision to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, to the extent otherwise permitted by law, its obligations pursuant to
clause (b)(x) of this Section shall survive the full repayment of the Loan and/or the passage of title to all or any portion of the Properties to Lender. 
  
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) Lender agrees that its sole recourse against any Operating Lessee for such Operating Lessee’s obligations
hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall be to the collateral owned by such Operating Lessee and pledged to Lender pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents and (ii) the total liability of any Borrower under this Agreement, the Notes, the
Mortgages or any of the other Loan Documents shall not: 
  
 (i) at any time during the period from the Closing Date to a date one year and a day after the Closing Date exceed the sum of (A) the Allocated Loan Amount for the Property or Properties as being owned by such
Borrower plus (B) such Borrower’s Net Worth on the date hereof, less (C) $1,000, and 
  
 (ii) at any time after the period referred to in clause (i) above exceed the sum of (A) the Allocated Loan Amount for the
Properties as being owned by such Borrower plus (B) the greater of such Borrower’s Net Worth on the date hereof and such Borrower’s Net Worth on the date such determination is being made (it being understood that for purposes of
determining such Borrower’s Net Worth on any date subsequent to the date that is one year and a day after the Closing Date, such Borrower’s liabilities shall only include liabilities that are permitted under the terms of the Loan
Documents), less (C) $1,000. 
  
 For purposes of the foregoing,
“Net Worth” of a Borrower shall mean the positive net worth of such Borrower, based on the sum of (x) the fair saleable value of its assets (determined after giving effect to distributions, if any, by such Borrower to such
Borrower’s partners, members or other equity investors, as applicable, of the proceeds of the Loan received by such Borrower on account of the issuance of the Notes and determined in accordance with applicable laws governing determinations of
the insolvency of debtors), less (y) its liabilities (determined as in clause (x) above), including a portion of the Loan (as applicable) equal to the Allocated Loan Amount for the Property or Properties identified on Schedule A as
being owned by such Borrower, but excluding amounts payable under this Agreement, the Loan Documents, the Notes, the Mortgages and any other Loan Documents in excess of such Allocated Loan Amount. 
  
 Section 12.25. Loan Assignability. The Loan, and Lender’s rights,
remedies and privileges hereunder and the other Loan Documents, shall be assignable by Lender at any time and from time to time, in whole or in part, in Lender’s discretion. In addition, Lender may 

  

 139 








 
participate to one or more Persons all or any portion of its rights and obligations hereunder and the other Loan Documents (including without limitation, all
or a portion of the Notes) utilizing such documentation to evidence such participation and the parties’ respective rights thereunder as Lender, in its sole discretion, shall elect. Each assignee pursuant to this Section may sell
participations to one or more Persons (other than Borrower or any of its Affiliates) in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations hereunder and the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, all or a portion of the Notes held by
it); provided, however, that (i) such assignee’s obligations hereunder and the other Loan Documents shall remain unchanged, (ii) such assignee shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations,
(iii) such assignee shall remain the holder of any such Notes for all purposes of hereunder and the other Loan Documents, and (iv) Borrower, Lender and the assignees pursuant to this Section shall continue to deal solely and directly with
such assignee in connection with such assignee’s rights and obligations hereunder and the other Loan Documents. In the event that more than one (1) party comprises Lender, Lender shall designate one party to act on the behalf of all parties
comprising Lender in providing approvals and all other necessary consents under the Loan Documents and on whose statements Borrower may rely. Prior to the transfer of any interest in the Loan to any Person, such Person shall be required by the
transferor of such interest to deliver to such transferor a certificate executed by an authorized signatory for such Person making a representation that such transfer will not result in a prohibited transaction under Section 406(a) of ERISA or
Section 4975 of the Code for which no exemption is available. Except as expressly set forth in Section 6.1(i)(ii), no Borrower may sell, assign or transfer any interest in the Loan Documents or any portion thereof (including, without limitation, any
Borrower’s rights, title, interests, remedies, powers and duties hereunder and thereunder). 
  
 Section 12.26. Exculpation of Lender. Lender neither undertakes nor assumes any responsibility or duty to any Borrower or any other party to
select, review, inspect, examine, supervise, pass judgment upon or inform any Borrower or any third party of (a) the existence, quality, adequacy or suitability of appraisals of any Property or any other collateral, (b) any environmental report, or
(c) any other matters or items, including, but not limited to, engineering, soils and seismic reports which are contemplated in the Loan Documents. Any such selection, review, inspection, examination and the like, and any other due diligence
conducted by Lender, is solely for the purpose of protecting Lender’s rights under the Loan Documents, and shall not render Lender liable to any Borrower or any third party for the existence, sufficiency, accuracy, completeness or legality
thereof. 
  
 Section 12.27. Contribution Among Borrowers.

  
 (a) Contribution. To provide for just and equitable
contribution among Borrowers, if any payment is made by a Borrower (a “Funding Borrower”) hereunder or under the Notes or any other Loan Document in respect of the Obligations such Funding Borrower shall be entitled to a
contribution from other Borrowers for all payments, damages and expenses incurred by such Funding Borrower under or in connection with such Obligations, such contributions to be made in the manner and to the extent set forth below. Any amount
payable as a contribution under this Agreement shall be determined as of the date on which the related payment is made by a Funding Borrower. 
  

 140 








 (b) Calculation of Contributions. Each payment made by a Funding Borrower shall be allocated among
the Borrowers as follows: (1) each payment of principal allocated to an individual Property (and interest related thereto) pursuant to this Agreement shall be allocated to the Borrower that owns such Property; (2) any damage, expense or other
payment attributed to an individual Property shall be allocated to the Borrower that owns such Property; and (3) any payment not described in (1) or (2) shall be allocated among Borrowers in the same ratio as the Allocated Loan Amount at the time
such payment is made. Subject to Section 12.27(c), any amount so allocated to a Borrower that is not the Funding Borrower shall be promptly paid by such Borrower to the Funding Borrower. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any application of
principal shall not result in any change in the Allocated Loan Amount of any Property. 
  
 (c) Rights to Contribution Subordinated. Each Borrower agrees that all of its rights to receive contribution under this Section 12.27 (whether for payments, damages, expenses or otherwise) and all of its
rights, if any, to be subrogated to any of the rights of Lender shall be subordinated in right of payment (in liquidation or otherwise) to the prior payment in full in cash of all of the obligations of the Borrowers in respect of the Debt (whether
for principal, interest, premium or otherwise). If any amount shall at any time be paid to a Borrower on account of such rights of contribution or subrogation, or in contravention of the provisions of this Section 12.27(c) at any time, such
amount shall be held in trust, segregated from the other assets of such Borrower, for the benefit of the Lender and shall promptly be paid to the Lender. The foregoing shall constitute a continuing offer to, and agreement with, all persons that from
time to time may become holders of, or continue to hold, obligations under this Agreement, and the provisions of the foregoing sentence are made for the benefit of such holders and such holders, as third party beneficiaries hereunder, are entitled
to enforce such provisions. 
  
 Section 12.28. Joint and
Several Obligations. 
  
 (a) Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary set forth in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, until such time (if ever) as a Borrower is released pursuant to Section 2.5.3, the obligations of the Borrowers hereunder shall be joint and several. 
  
 (b) Each Borrower’s obligations hereunder shall remain outstanding until
all Debt has been paid in full, or such Borrower is released pursuant to Section 2.5.3, whichever first occurs. 
  
 (c) No payment or payments with respect to the obligations of any Borrower hereunder made by any other Borrower or any other Person or received or
collected by the Lender from such other Borrower or such other Person by virtue of any action or proceeding or any setoff or appropriation or application, at any time or from time to time, in reduction of or in payment of the Debt or any release of
security hereunder shall be deemed to modify, reduce, release or otherwise affect the primary liability of such Borrower in respect thereof. 
  
 (d) If any amount shall at any time be paid to a Borrower on account of such rights of contribution or subrogation, in contravention of the provisions of
this Section 12.28 at any time, such amount shall be held in trust, segregated from the other assets of such Borrower, for the benefit of the Lender and shall promptly be paid to the Lender. 
  

 141 








 Section 12.29. Lender’s Rights. The rights of “Lender” under this Agreement with
respect to any time shall mean the rights of each and every Lender at such time. 
  
 ARTICLE XIII 
  
 SERVICE
PROVIDERS 
  
 Section 13.1. Retention of Servicer,
Securitization Trustee. Lender reserves the right to retain a servicer (as well as a special servicer) prior to or in connection with any Securitization to act as its agent with respect to the Loan and the Loan Documents with such powers as are
specifically delegated to the servicer (or such special servicer) by Lender, whether pursuant to this Agreement, a servicing agreement, the Deposit Account Agreement or otherwise, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.
Lender shall designate and appoint GMAC Commercial Mortgage as sub-servicer for the master servicer of the Loan. Borrowers shall be responsible for the payment of such servicers’ and sub-servicer’s fees and expenses for servicing, master
servicing or subservicing, including, without limitation, any fee or expense for any special servicing Lender reasonably deems to be required and any fees and expenses of such servicers, including, without limitation, in connection with a release of
any Property, satisfaction of any Mortgage, assumption of the Loan, modification of the Loan made at Borrowers’ request, any requests by Borrowers for waivers or consents, protective advances, and the enforcement of the Loan Documents.
Borrowers shall have the right to rely on any notices given by any servicer with the same force and affect as if Lender had given such notices. In addition, in connection with a Securitization, Lender reserves the right to retain a Securitization
trustee for the benefit of the holders of the Notes. Borrowers shall pay all costs associated with the retention and ongoing services provided by the Securitization trustee pursuant to any indenture or similar document. 
  
 Section 13.2. Rating Surveillance. Lender will have the right to
retain the Rating Agencies to provide rating surveillance services in connection with or prior to a Securitization and the annual cost of such ongoing surveillance will be at the expense of the Borrowers. 
  
 ARTICLE XIV 
  
 SECURITIZATION 
  
 Section 14.1. Sale of Note and Securitization. At the request of Lender and, to the extent not already required to be provided by Borrowers and
Operating Lessees under this Agreement, Borrowers or Operating Lessees shall use reasonable efforts to satisfy the market standards which may be reasonably required in the marketplace or by the Rating Agencies in connection with the Securitization
of rated single or multi-class securities (the “Securities”) secured by or evidencing ownership interests in the Note and this Agreement, including using reasonable efforts to do (or cause to be done) the following (but Borrowers
and Operating Lessees will not in any event be required to incur, suffer or accept (except to a de minimis extent) (i) any lesser rights or greater obligations than as currently set forth in the Loan Documents and (ii) except as set forth in
Section 12.13, or Article XIII, any expense or any liability: 
  
 14.1.1 Provided Information. (i) Provide such non-confidential financial and other information (but not projections) with respect to the Property, Borrowers, Operating Lessees and Property Managers to the
extent such information is reasonably available to Borrowers, Operating Lessees or Property Managers, (ii) provide business plans (but not projections) and budgets relating to the Property, to the extent prepared by the Borrowers or Property
Managers and (iii) cooperate with the holder of the Note (and its representatives) in obtaining such site inspection, appraisals, market studies, environmental reviews and reports, engineering reports and other due diligence investigations of the
Property, as may be reasonably requested by the holder of the Note or reasonably requested by the Rating Agencies (all information provided pursuant to this Section 14.1 together with all other information heretofore provided to Lender in
connection with the Loan, as such may be updated, at Borrower’s or Operating Lessee’s request, in connection with a Securitization, or hereafter provided to Lender in connection with the Loan or a Securitization, being herein collectively
called the “Provided Information”); 
  

 142 








 14.1.2 Updates to Opinions of Counsel. Shall use reasonable efforts to cause to be rendered such
customary updates or customary modifications to the opinions of counsel delivered at the closing of the Loan as may be reasonably requested by the holder of the Note or the Rating Agencies in connection with the Securitization (it being agreed that
in no event shall Borrower or Operating Lessee be obligated to deliver an opinion of counsel with respect to “true sale”, “ or no fraudulent conveyance” matters). Borrowers’ or Operating Lessees’ failure to use
reasonable efforts to deliver or cause to be delivered the opinion updates or modifications required hereby within twenty (20) Business Days after written request therefor shall constitute an “Event of Default” hereunder. 
  
 14.1.3 Modifications to Loan Documents. Execute such amendments to the
Mortgage and Loan Documents as may be reasonably requested by Lender or the Rating Agencies in order to achieve the required rating or to effect the Securitization (including, without limitation, modifying the Payment Date to a date other than as
originally set forth in this Agreement), provided, that nothing contained in this Section 14.1.3 shall result in any economic or other material adverse change in the transaction contemplated by the Loan Documents (unless Borrowers and
Operating Lessees are made whole by the holder of Note) or result in any operational changes that are unduly burdensome to the Properties, Borrowers or Operating Lessees. 
  
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, neither Borrower nor Operating Lessee shall be required to modify
any Loan Document or organizational document in a manner which would increase Borrowers’ or Operating Lessees’ obligations or have adverse effect whatsoever on Borrowers or Operating Lessees (other than to a de-minimis extent).

  
 Section 14.2. Cooperation with Rating Agencies.
Borrowers and Operating Lessees shall (i) at Lender’s request, meet with representatives of such Rating Agencies at reasonable times to discuss the business and operations of the Property, and (ii) cooperate with the reasonable requests of the
Rating Agencies in connection with the Property and (iii) gather any reasonable environmental information reasonably required by the Rating Agencies in connection with the Securitization. 
  

 143 








 Section 14.3. Securitization Financial Statements. Borrowers and Operating Lessees acknowledge
that all such financial information delivered by Borrowers or Operating Lessees to Lender pursuant to Section 5.1(j) may, at Lender’s option, be delivered to the Rating Agencies. 
  
 Section 14.4. Securitization Indemnification. 
  
 14.4.1 Disclosure Documents. Each of Borrowers and Operating Lessees
understands that certain of the Provided Information may be included in disclosure documents in connection with the Securitization, including a prospectus or private placement memorandum or a public registration statement (each, a
“Disclosure Document”) and may also be included in filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Act or the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange
Act”), or provided or made available to investors or prospective investors in the Securities, the Rating Agencies, and service providers relating to the Securitization. In the event that the Disclosure Document is required to be revised
prior to the sale of all Securities, upon request, each of Borrowers and Operating Lessees will reasonably cooperate with the holder of the Note in updating the Provided Information for inclusion or summary in the Disclosure Document by providing
all current information pertaining to Borrowers, Operating Lessees and the Properties necessary to keep the Disclosure Documents accurate and complete in all material respects with respect to such matters. 
  
 14.4.2 Indemnification Certificate. In connection with each of (x) a
preliminary and a private placement memorandum, or (y) a preliminary and final prospectus, as applicable, each of Borrowers and Operating Lessees agree to provide, at Lender’s reasonable request, an indemnification certificate: 
  
 (i) certifying that each of Borrowers and Operating Lessees
have carefully examined those portions of such memorandum or prospectus, as applicable, reasonably designated in writing by Lender for Borrowers’ or Operating Lessees’ review pertaining to Borrowers, the Operating Lessees, the Properties,
the Loan and/or the Provided Information) and insofar as such sections or portions thereof specifically pertain to Borrowers, the Operating Lessees, the Properties, the Provided Information or the Loan, (the “Relevant Portions”),
the Relevant Portions do not (except to the extent specified by Borrowers or Operating Lessees if Borrowers or Operating Lessees do not agree with the statements therein), as of the date of such certificate, to Borrowers’ or Operating
Lessees’ actual knowledge, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements made, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; and

  
 (ii) indemnifying Lender, Deutsche Bank
Securities, Inc., and the Affiliates of Deutsche Bank Securities, Inc. (collectively, “DBS”) that have filed the Disclosure Document relating to the Securitization, each of its directors, each of its officers who have signed the
Disclosure Document and each person or entity who controls DBS within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (collectively, the “DBS Group”), and DBS, together with the DBS Group, each of
their respective directors and each person who controls DBS or the DBS Group, within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange 

  

 144 








 
Act (collectively, the “Underwriter Group”) for any actual, out-of-pocket losses, third party claims, damages (excluding lost profits,
diminution in value and other consequential damages) or liabilities arising out of third party claims (the “Liabilities”) to which any member of the Underwriter Group may become subject to the extent such Liabilities arise out of or
are based upon any untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Relevant Portions or arise out of or are based upon the omission by Borrower or Operating Lessee to state therein a material fact required to be stated in the Relevant
Portions in order to make the statements in the Relevant Portions or in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading (except that (x) Borrowers’ or Operating Lessees’ obligation to indemnify in respect of any
information contained in a preliminary or final registration statement, private placement memorandum or preliminary or final prospectus that is derived in part from information provided by Borrowers or Operating Lessees and in part from information
provided by others unrelated to or not employed by Borrowers or Operating Lessees shall be limited to any untrue statement or omission of material fact therein known to Borrowers or Operating Lessees that results directly from an error in any
information provided (or which should have been provided) by Borrowers or Operating Lessees which either of Borrowers or Operating Lessees have been given the opportunity to examine and reasonably and promptly approve and (y) Borrowers and Operating
Lessees shall have no responsibility for the failure of any member of the Underwriting Group to accurately transcribe written information supplied by Borrowers or Operating Lessees or to include such portions of the Provided Information).

  
 (iii) Each of Borrowers’ and Operating
Lessees’ liability under clauses (a) and (b) above shall be limited to Liabilities arising out of or based upon any such untrue statement or omission by Borrowers or Operating Lessees made therein in reliance upon and in conformity with
information furnished to Lender by, or furnished at the direction and on behalf of Borrowers in connection with the preparation of those portions of the registration statement, memorandum or prospectus pertaining to Borrowers, Operating Lessees, the
Properties or the Loan, including financial statements of Borrowers or Operating Lessees and operating statements with respect to the Properties. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which Borrowers or Operating Lessees may
otherwise have. 
  
 (iv) Promptly after receipt
by an indemnified party under this Article XIV of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Article XIV, notify the
indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof, but the omission to so notify the indemnifying party will not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability which the indemnifying party may have to any indemnified party hereunder
except to the extent that failure to notify causes prejudice to the indemnifying party. In the event that any action is brought against any indemnified party, and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party
will be entitled, jointly with any other indemnifying party, to participate therein and, to the extent that it (or they) may elect by written notice delivered to the indemnified party promptly after receiving the aforesaid notice from such
indemnified party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party. After notice from the 

  

 145 








 
indemnifying party to such indemnified party under this Article XIV of its assumption of such defense, the indemnifying party shall not be liable for
any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof; provided, however, if the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party
and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there are any legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties that are different from or in conflict with those available to the indemnifying party, the indemnified party
or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to assert such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties at the expense of the indemnifying party. The
indemnifying party shall not be liable for the expenses of separate counsel unless an indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or in conflict with those available to
another indemnified party. 
  
 (v) In order to
provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which the indemnity provided for in this Article XIV is for any reason held to be unenforceable by an indemnified party in respect of any actual, out-of-pocket losses, claims,
damages or liabilities relating to third party claims (or action in respect thereof) referred to therein which would otherwise be indemnifiable under this Article XIV, the indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by
the indemnified party as a result of such actual, out of pocket losses, third party claims, damages or liabilities (or action in respect thereof) (but excluding damages for loss profits, diminution in value of the Property and consequential
damages); provided, however, that no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution for Liabilities arising therefrom from any person who was
not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. In determining the amount of contribution to which the respective parties are entitled, the following factors shall be considered: (i) the DBS Group’s and Borrower’s and Operating
Lessees’ relative knowledge and access to information concerning the matter with respect to which claim was asserted; (ii) the opportunity to correct and prevent any statement or omission; (iii) the limited responsibilities and obligations of
Borrower and Operating Lessee as specified herein; and (iv) any other equitable considerations appropriate in the circumstances.
