(e)  Borrower acknowledges that it possesses no right to prepay the Loan, except as expressly provided in this Section 2.4 or as otherwise provided in Sections 3.2(i), 3.3, 7.5, 7.15 or 9.3.  Borrower further acknowledges and agrees that, except as so expressly provided, if the Loan is prepaid prior to June 1, 2030, for any reason (including acceleration of the Scheduled Maturity Date by reason of an Event of Default), any subsequent tender of payment of the Loan made by Borrower or by any Person on behalf of Borrower or otherwise, including any tender of payment at any time prior to or at foreclosure sale or proceedings or during any redemption period following foreclosure, or during any federal or state bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings, shall constitute an evasion of the restrictions on prepayment set forth herein, and shall be deemed a voluntary prepayment prior to the Scheduled Maturity Date requiring payment of the Applicable Prepayment Fee, and Lender shall not be required to accept such prepayment if it does not include payment of the Applicable Prepayment Fee.




(f)  If any actual or deemed prepayment is tendered or deemed tendered during the Lockout Period (other than a prepayment tendered or deemed tendered pursuant to Sections 3.2(i), 3.3, 7.5, 7.15 or 9.3), Borrower shall be obligated to pay Lender, and the Obligations shall include, a prepayment fee (the “Lockout Prepayment Fee”) calculated by Lender in its discretion (which may or may not equal the Standard Yield Maintenance otherwise due in connection with any such prepayment but for the operation of the Lockout Period), and








-17-





Lender shall not be required to accept such payment or credit any deemed payment if it does not include payment of the Lockout Prepayment Fee as calculated by Lender.




(g)  Lender’s acceptance of a prepayment without the Applicable Prepayment Fee shall not constitute or be deemed to constitute a waiver by Lender of its right to require payment of the Applicable Prepayment Fee in accordance with the terms hereof or a waiver of any rights and remedies Lender may have under the Loan Documents, at law or in equity on account of Borrower’s failure to timely pay the Applicable Prepayment Fee as and when required hereunder.




(h)  To the extent permitted by law, Lender may bid at any foreclosure sale, as part of the Obligations, the amount of the Applicable Prepayment Fee calculated as if prepayment of the Loan occurs on the date of such foreclosure sale.  To the extent the amount of the Obligations must be determined as of a date certain pursuant to a judicial foreclosure, the Loan will be deemed prepaid as of the date judgment enters and the Applicable Prepayment Fee due and payable hereunder (if any) will be calculated as if prepayment of the Obligations occurred on the date of said judgment.




(i)  Borrower and Lender have negotiated the Loan upon the understanding that if the Loan is paid or prepaid prior to June 1, 2030 for any reason, except as expressly provided in this Section 2.4 or as otherwise provided in Sections 3.2(i), 3.3, 7.5, 7.15 or 9.3, Lender shall receive the Applicable Prepayment Fee as compensation for: (i) the cost of reinvesting the prepayment proceeds and the loss of the contracted rate of return on the Loan; and (ii) the privilege of early payment of the Loan, which Borrower has expressly bargained for and which privilege Lender would not have granted to Borrower without Borrower’s obligation to pay the Applicable Prepayment Fee.  Borrower agrees that the Applicable Prepayment Fee provided for herein is reasonable and that Lender shall not be obligated, as a condition subsequent to its receipt of the Applicable Prepayment Fee, to actually reinvest all or any part of the amount prepaid in any United States Treasury instruments or obligations or otherwise.

(iv)  At all times during which structural construction, repairs or alterations are being made with respect to any Property, applicable contractors shall provide:  (1) owner’s and contractor’s protective liability insurance covering claims not covered by or under the terms or provisions of the commercial general liability insurance policy referenced in Subsection 3.1(a)(ii); and (2) the insurance provided for in Subsections 3.1(a)(i) and (iii), written in a so-called “builder’s risk completed value form” (A) on a non-reporting basis, (B) against “All Risks” or “Special Perils” as required pursuant to Subsection 3.1(a)(i), (C) including permission to occupy such Property, and (D) with an agreed amount endorsement waiving co-insurance provisions;




(v)  To the extent required by applicable Legal Requirements, workers’ compensation, subject to the statutory limits of the State, and employer’s liability insurance with a limit of at least $1,000,000.00 per accident and per disease per employee, and $1,000,000.00 for disease aggregate in respect of any work or operations on or about each Property, or in connection with each Property or its operation (if applicable);




(vi)  Comprehensive boiler and machinery insurance in customary and reasonable amounts (to the extent Lender, in the exercise of its reasonable judgment, deems such coverage reasonably necessary based on the equipment at a particular Property);




(vii)  If any portion of any Property is at any time located in an area identified by the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development or any successor thereto as an area having special flood hazards pursuant to the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973 or the National Flood Insurance Reform Act of 1994, as each may be amended, or any successor or comparable law (the “Flood Insurance Acts”), flood hazard insurance in an amount equal to the lesser of (1) 100% of the “Full Replacement Cost,” determined in accordance with the provisions of Subsection 3.1(a)(i), and (2) the maximum limit of coverage available for such Property under the Flood Insurance Acts;




-20-




(viii)  Umbrella liability insurance in an aggregate amount of not less than $25,000,000.00 per occurrence, and with deductibles (including any self insurance or retention) and on terms consistent with the commercial general liability insurance policy required under Subsection 3.1(a)(ii); and




(ix)  Such other insurance (other than terrorism or earthquake insurance) and in such amounts as Lender from time to time may reasonably require against such other insurable hazards which at the time are commonly insured against for properties similar to each Property located in or around the region in which the Portfolio is located.




(b)  Policies.  All insurance provided for in Subsection 3.1(a) shall be obtained under valid and enforceable policies (collectively, the “Policies” and individually, a “Policy”), in such forms and, from time to time after the Funding Date, in such amounts as may be satisfactory to Lender (in the exercise of its reasonable judgment), issued by financially sound and responsible insurance companies authorized and admitted to do business in the State, having a general policy rating of “A” or better and a financial class of “X” or better, each as determined by AM Best Company, Inc., and otherwise acceptable to Lender in the exercise of its reasonable judgment (each such insurer satisfying the foregoing is referred to below as a “Qualified Insurer”).  Not less than ten (10) days prior to the expiration dates of the Policies in force as of the Funding Date, Borrower shall deliver to Lender certificates (in ACORD format 25 and ACORD format 28 (2003/10 form)) evidencing renewal Policies complying with the requirements of this Section 3.1, such certificates to be in format reasonably required by Lender and to be marked “premium paid” (or Borrower shall provide other evidence satisfactory to Lender (in its reasonable judgment) of the payment in full of all premiums due under such Policies (the “Insurance Premiums”)).




(c)  Blanket Policies.  Borrower shall not obtain (i) any blanket liability or casualty Policy unless, in each case, such Policy is approved in advance by Lender (Lender acknowledges its approval of the blanket policies in effect as of the Funding Date, and Lender’s approval of Borrower’s blanket Policies following the Funding Date will not be required so long as any replacement blanket Policy is substantially similar to the blanket Policy approved by Lender on the Funding Date, confirmed by the ACORD certificates described in Section 3.1(b)), or (ii) without Lender’s prior written consent (issued or withheld in Lender’s reasonable judgment), separate insurance concurrent in form or contributing in the event of loss with that required in Subsection 3.1(a).  If a Borrower Party obtains separate insurance or a blanket Policy, Borrower shall notify Lender of the same and shall cause certificates with respect to each Policy to be delivered to Lender as required in Subsection 3.1(b).




(d)  Lender as Insured.All Policies, except for the Policies referenced in Subsection 3.1(a)(v), shall name the applicable Individual Borrower as the named insured and Lender as an additional insured and loss payee, as their respective interests may appear, and in the case of property damage, boiler and machinery, builder’s risk, and flood insurance, shall contain a so-called “New York standard non-contributing mortgagee” clause in favor of Lender providing that any loss thereunder covered by such Policy shall be payable to Lender.




(e)  Policy Endorsements.  All Policies shall contain clauses or endorsements to the effect that:






-21-




(i)  No act or negligence of any Borrower Party, of anyone acting for a Borrower Party, or of any Tenant, or failure to comply with the provisions of any Policy that might otherwise result in a forfeiture of the insurance or any part thereof, shall in any way affect the validity or enforceability of the insurance insofar as Lender is concerned;




(ii)  No Policy may be materially changed (other than to increase the coverage provided thereby) or cancelled without at least thirty (30) days prior written notice to Lender and any other party named therein as an insured or additional insured;




(iii)  The issuers thereof shall give written notice to Lender if the Policy has not been thirty (30) days prior to its expiration; and




(iv)  Lender shall not be liable for any Insurance Premiums or assessments thereon, except that Lender may, but shall have no obligation to, pay any Insurance Premiums to continue any Policy in full force and effect in the event Borrower fails to do so (any such amounts so paid by Lender shall be paid by Borrower to Lender within the Demand Period, and until paid shall constitute part of the Obligations, shall be secured by the Loan Documents and shall bear interest at the Default Rate accruing from the expiration of the Demand Period until Lender receives payment in full of such amount).




(f)  Intentionally Omitted.




(g)  Lender Self-Help.If at any time Lender is not in receipt of written evidence that all Insurance required hereunder is in full force and effect, Lender shall have the right, upon three (3) Business Days prior notice to Borrower, to take such action as Lender deems necessary to protect its interest in the Portfolio, including obtaining such Insurance as Lender, in its discretion, deems appropriate, and all expenses incurred by Lender in connection with such action or in obtaining and maintaining such Insurance shall be paid by Borrower to Lender before the expiration of the Demand Period, and until paid shall constitute part of the Obligations, shall be secured by the Loan Documents and shall bear interest at the Default Rate from the expiration of the Demand Period until Lender receives payment in full of such amount.




(h)  Vesting in Lender.In the event of a foreclosure or other transfer of title to any Property to Lender or a third party purchaser at foreclosure in extinguishment in whole or in part of the Obligations, and to the extent permitted under the Policies, all right, title and interest of Borrower Parties in and to all proceeds payable pursuant to the Policies as of the effective date of transfer of title (including proceeds payable under blanket policies) shall thereupon vest exclusively in Lender or the purchaser at such foreclosure.




(i)  Subrogation.All Insurance (as applicable) and all renewals thereof shall contain, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Lender, a standard “Waiver of Subrogation” endorsement.




Section 3.2.  Use and Application of Insurance Proceeds.




(a)  Restoration.If any portion of any Property (or any material portion of the other Collateral) shall be damaged or destroyed, in whole or in part, by fire or other casualty (a “Casualty”), Borrower shall give prompt written notice of such damage to Lender.  If Net








-22-





Proceeds are made available to a Borrower Party for Restoration as provided in Subsections 3.2(c) and 3.2(d), the applicable Individual Borrower shall, in accordance with the terms of this Section 3.2, promptly commence and diligently prosecute to completion the repair and restoration of the affected Collateral as nearly as possible to the condition the affected Collateral was in immediately prior to such Casualty (such repair and restoration, collectively, a “Restoration”)and shall pay all costs of such Restoration (even if Net Proceeds are not sufficient to pay in the full the cost of Restoration).  Regardless of whether Net Proceeds are made available to any Individual Borrower, Borrower shall, promptly following the occurrence of a Casualty and diligently thereafter, undertake all actions necessary to keep the affected Property safe, secure and free from reasonably foreseeable hazards and otherwise in material compliance with applicable Legal Requirements.  Notwithstanding any Casualty, Borrower shall continue to pay the Obligations at the time and in the manner provided for its payment in this Agreement.




(b)  Adjustments by Lender.Upon any Casualty covered by any Insurance, then (i) if an Event of Default exists, Lender is hereby authorized, at its option (exercisable in its discretion), to settle and adjust any claim without the consent of Borrower Parties; or (ii) if the Casualty in question is a Major Damage Event, Lender shall allow the applicable Individual Borrower up to one hundred eighty (180) days following the occurrence of the Casualty to settle and adjust such claim with the prior written consent of Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld); provided, however, that if the applicable Individual Borrower has failed to settle and adjust any claim associated with a Casualty within one hundred eighty (180) days after the occurrence of such Major Damage Event, Lender is hereby authorized, at its option (exercisable in its reasonable discretion), to settle and adjust any claim with the prior written consent of the applicable Individual Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld); provided, further, that in any case, Lender shall, and is hereby authorized to, collect and hold (without interest) any and all such insurance proceeds subject to the terms of this Section 3.2.  If a Casualty does not constitute a Major Damage Event, then the applicable Individual Borrower shall diligently pursue settlement of all insurance claims, shall hold all Net Proceeds associated with such non-Major Damage Event in trust to be applied toward the costs associated with the restoration of the affected Property, and shall promptly commence and diligently pursue to completion all restoration and repair work reasonably necessary to return the affected Property to the condition it was in immediately prior to the non-Major Damage Event.  The applicable Individual Borrower shall provide Lender with reasonable written updates, at reasonable intervals, in connection with all restoration efforts associated with non-Major Damage Events.  The reasonable third party expenses incurred by Lender in the adjustment and collection of insurance proceeds shall be reimbursed by Borrower to Lender within the Demand Period and until paid shall constitute part of the Obligations, shall be secured by the Loan Documents and shall bear interest at the Default Rate from expiration of the Demand Period until payment in full is received by Lender, or, to the extent sufficient insurance proceeds are available, said expenses shall be deducted from said proceeds by Lender prior to any other application thereof.  Each Qualified Insurer is hereby authorized and directed by Borrower to make payment for all losses associated with a Major Damage Event to Lender alone, and not to Lender and any Individual Borrower or any other Person jointly.  Borrower agrees to promptly execute and deliver to Lender all documents and promptly make all deliveries reasonably requested by Lender in order to permit Lender to adjust any such claim and to authorize and direct any insurer to pay








-23-








insurance proceeds relating to a Major Damage Event to Lender alone and not jointly to Lender and any Individual Borrower or any other Person.  “Net Proceeds” means the net amount of all insurance proceeds received by Lender under the Policies described in Subsections 3.1(a) as a result of a Casualty, after deduction of Lender’s reasonable third party costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), if any, in collecting same.




(c)  Conditions to Disbursements for Restoration.The following provisions shall apply in connection with any Restoration of a Major Damage Event:




(i)  Lender shall make the Net Proceeds associated with a Major Damage Event available to the applicable Individual Borrower for Restoration, provided that each of the following conditions are satisfied (satisfaction to be determined by Lender in the exercise of its reasonable judgment):




(A)  As of the date of each distribution of Net Proceeds, no Monetary Potential Default then exists and no Event of Default then exists;




(B)  Within ninety (90) days following the occurrence of the Casualty, the applicable Individual Borrower shall prepare, or shall cause to be prepared, all required Restoration Documents and applications for the issuance of all permits required for the Restoration, with copies thereof delivered to Lender;




(C)  Lender and the Casualty Consultant shall have approved the Restoration Documents in accordance with Subsection 3.2(e);




(D)  As of the date of each distribution of Net Proceeds, Lender shall be satisfied, in the exercise of its reasonable judgment, that based upon a report issued by the Casualty Consultant and such other factors as Lender reasonably deems relevant, the costs of Restoration and ongoing Operating Expenses (including Debt Service) allocated to the affected Property will be covered out of (1) undisbursed Net Proceeds (including the proceeds of the coverage referred to in Subsection 3.1(a)(iii)), (2) Rents that are and shall continue to be generated by the affected Property despite the Casualty, and/or (3) other funds of Borrower deposited with Lender pursuant to Subsection 3.2(g);




(E)  Prior to the initial disbursement of Net Proceeds, Lender shall be satisfied that, within six (6) months following completion of the Restoration, the Net Operating Income associated with the affected Property will be restored to a level sufficient to generate a Debt Service Coverage Ratio (based on a fully amortizing 20-year schedule and the Allocated Loan Amount associated with the affected Property) for such affected Property of at least 125%;




(F)  Prior to the initial disbursement of Net Proceeds, Lender shall be satisfied that the Restoration will be completed on or before the earliest to occur of (1) six (6) months prior to the Maturity Date, (2) twelve (12) months after the occurrence of the Casualty, or (3) such time as may be required under all Legal








-24-





Requirements in order to repair and restore the affected Collateral to the condition it was in immediately prior to such Casualty;




(G)  Prior to the initial disbursement of Net Proceeds, Borrower shall execute and deliver to Lender a completion guaranty in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender and its counsel, pursuant to which Borrower shall guaranty to Lender the lien-free completion of the Restoration in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3.2;




(H)  Prior to the initial disbursement of Net Proceeds, Lender shall be satisfied that the affected Property and the use thereof after the Restoration will be in compliance (in all material respects) with and permitted under all Legal Requirements;




(I)  Prior to the initial disbursement of Net Proceeds, Lender shall be satisfied that the Restoration shall be undertaken and completed such that no Lease (or combination of Leases), which are in place at the affected Property as of the date of the Casualty and which cover (singularly or in the aggregate) 25% or more of the gross rentable area of the affected Property, can be terminated as a result of the Casualty;




(J)  Promptly following the issuance of all required permits and the decision of Lender to make Net Proceeds available for Restoration in accordance with this Subsection 3.2(c), the applicable Individual Borrower shall commence the Restoration;




(K)  As of the date of each distribution of Net Proceeds, Lender shall be satisfied (in the exercise of its reasonable judgment) that the applicable Individual Borrower is diligently pursuing the Restoration to satisfactory completion; and




(L)  As of the date of each distribution of Net Proceeds, Borrower must be in compliance with the conditions specified in Subsections 3.2(d), (e) and (g) below.




(d)  Disbursement Procedures.The Net Proceeds shall be held by Lender (in a non-interest bearing account) and, unless and until disbursed to the applicable Individual Borrower in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3.2, shall constitute additional security for the Obligations.  Subject to satisfaction of the conditions of this Section 3.2, the Net Proceeds designated for Restoration costs shall be disbursed by Lender to, or as directed by, the applicable Individual Borrower from time to time prior to or during the course of the Restoration, but not more than once per 30-day period, upon receipt of (i) a disbursement request from the applicable Borrower Party in form and content reasonably required by Lender, (ii) an inspection report from the Casualty Consultant acceptable to Lender (in the exercise of its reasonable judgment), (iii) evidence reasonably satisfactory to Lender that all materials installed and work and labor performed in connection with the related Restoration item have been paid for in full (except to the extent that they are to be paid for out of the requested disbursement), including a certification from the applicable Individual Borrower that there exist no notices of pendency, stop orders,





-25-








mechanic’s or material supplier’s liens or notices of intention to file same, or any other liens or encumbrances of any nature whatsoever on the affected Property which have not either been fully bonded to the reasonable satisfaction of Lender and discharged of record or, in the alternative, fully insured to the reasonable satisfaction of Lender by the Title Company, and (iv) title insurance “date downs” and endorsements to the Title Policy without exception as to mechanics’ or material supplier’s liens, intervening choate or inchoate liens, judgments, survey matters, or other material matters of record.  Any Net Proceeds received by Lender and held for application to Operating Expenses and Debt Service shall be disbursed to the applicable Individual Borrower in accordance with Subsection 3.1(a)(iii).  All Net Proceeds disbursed to a Borrower for Restoration shall be held in trust by the recipient and used for the sole purpose of completion of the Restoration in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3.2.




(e)  Restoration Documents.All plans and specifications and construction agreements (collectively, “Restoration Documents”) necessary for the Restoration shall be subject to prior review and approval by Lender and by a qualified independent consulting engineer selected by Lender (the “Casualty Consultant”), all such approvals not to be unreasonably withheld.  In the event Lender does not notify the applicable Individual Borrower of the approval or disapproval by Lender and the Casualty Consultant of the Restoration Documents within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of a complete set thereof by Lender and the Casualty Consultant, then Lender and the Casualty Consultant shall be deemed to have approved the Restoration Documents.  Subject to all necessary approvals and consents (the consent of Borrower Parties being deemed issued), Lender shall have the use of the Restoration Documents and all permits, licenses and approvals required or obtained in connection with the Restoration.  The identity of the general contractor and other significant contractors engaged in the Restoration shall be subject to prior review and approval by Lender and the Casualty Consultant (each such approval not to be unreasonably withheld).  All reasonable third party costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with making the Net Proceeds available for the Restoration or for the payment of Operating Expenses, including reasonable third party attorneys’ fees and disbursements and the Casualty Consultant’s reasonable fees (which in no event shall exceed then prevailing market rates), shall be deducted from the Net Proceeds or if the Net Proceeds are not sufficient, paid by Borrower to Lender within the Demand Period and until paid shall constitute part of the Obligations, shall be secured by the Loan Documents and shall bear interest at the Default Rate from the expiration of the Demand Period until payment in full is received by Lender.




(f)  Amount of Disbursements.In no event shall Lender be obligated to make disbursements of the Net Proceeds in excess of an amount equal to the costs actually incurred from time to time for work in place as part of the Restoration (including Lender’s reasonable third party costs and expenses), as certified by the Casualty Consultant, minus the Restoration Retainage.  “Restoration Retainage” means an amount equal to the greater of (i) ten percent (10%) of the costs actually incurred for work in place as part of the Restoration, as certified by the Casualty Consultant, and (ii) the amount actually held back by the applicable Individual Borrower from contractors, subcontractors and material suppliers engaged in the Restoration.  The Restoration Retainage shall not be released until the Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender that the Restoration has been substantially completed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3.2 and that all approvals necessary for the re-occupancy and use of the affected Property have been obtained from all appropriate Governmental Authorities, and Lender receives








-26-





evidence reasonably satisfactory to Lender that the costs of the Restoration have been paid in full or will be paid in full out of the Restoration Retainage, provided, however, that Lender will release the portion of the Restoration Retainage being held with respect to any contractor, subcontractor or material supplier engaged in the Restoration as of the date upon which either (i) the Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender that the contractor, subcontractor or material supplier has satisfactorily completed all work and has supplied all materials in accordance with the provisions of that contractor’s, subcontractor’s or material supplier’s contract, or (ii) the applicable contractor, subcontractor or material supplier delivers to Lender lien waivers and evidence of payment in full of all sums due to the contractor, subcontractor or material supplier as may be reasonably requested by Lender or by the Title Company.  If required by Lender, the release of any such portion of the Restoration Retainage shall be approved by the surety company, if any, which has issued a payment or performance bond with respect to the contractor, subcontractor or material supplier.




(g)  Restoration Deficiency.If at any time the Net Proceeds or the undisbursed balance thereof, together with Rents that will continue to be generated by the affected Property despite the Casualty, shall not, in the reasonable opinion of Lender in consultation with the Casualty Consultant, be sufficient to pay in full the balance of the costs estimated by the Casualty Consultant to be incurred in connection with the completion of the Restoration and ongoing Operating Expenses (including Debt Service) associated with the affected Property, Borrower shall deposit the deficiency (the “Net Proceeds Deficiency”) with Lender before any further disbursement of the Net Proceeds shall be made (but in all events Borrower shall make such deposit within sixty (60) days following demand).  The Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited with Lender shall be held by Lender and shall be disbursed for costs actually incurred in connection with the Restoration and/or for ongoing Operating Expenses (including Debt Service) associated with the affected Property on the same conditions applicable to the disbursement of the Net Proceeds, and until so disbursed shall constitute additional security for the Obligations.




(h)  Release of Remaining Proceeds.  Provided (i) no Monetary Potential Default then exists and no Event of Default then exists, (ii) Lender shall re-confirm that within six (6) months following completion of the Restoration the Net Operating Income for the affected Property will be restored to a level sufficient to generate a Debt Service Coverage Ratio (based on a fully amortizing 20-year schedule and the Allocated Loan Amount associated with the affected Property) for such affected Property of at least 125%, (iii) the Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender that the Restoration has been substantially completed in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.2, and (iv) Lender receives evidence reasonably satisfactory to Lender that all costs incurred in connection with the Restoration have been paid in full (except to the extent said costs shall be paid out of the final disbursement), Lender shall promptly remit to the applicable Individual Borrower the excess, if any, of the Net Proceeds and the remaining balance, if any, of the Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited with Lender.




(i)  Application of Remaining Proceeds.If Lender makes a determination (in the exercise of its reasonable judgment) pursuant to this Section 3.2 that one or more of the conditions to disbursement of Net Proceeds set forth in Subsection 3.2(c)(i) has not or will not be satisfied, then all Net Proceeds then held by Lender shall be retained and applied by Lender toward the payment of the Obligations, whether or not then due and payable in such order, priority and proportions as Lender in its reasonable discretion shall deem proper.  Provided no





-27-








Event of Default has occurred and is continuing as of the date Lender applies the Net Proceeds to the Obligations, no Applicable Prepayment Fee shall be payable in connection with any such prepayment.  If an Event of Default exists while Lender is holding Net Proceeds, Lender may at its option apply the Net Proceeds toward the payment of the Obligations, whether or not then due and payable in such order, priority and proportions as Lender in its discretion shall deem proper (including toward payment of any Applicable Prepayment Fee applicable to such prepayment).  If Lender applies Net Proceeds to the Obligations, the lien of the Loan Documents shall be reduced only by the amount of Net Proceeds actually applied by Lender in reduction of the Obligations, but if the Net Proceeds do not discharge the Allocated Loan Amount relating only to the affected Property in full, then Lender may elect to accelerate repayment of, or Borrower may elect to prepay, the entire remaining outstanding balance of the Allocated Loan Amount relating only to the affected Property, such prepayment to be made in either case within one hundred twenty (120) days following notice from the electing party to the other party (or such longer period as may be reasonably necessary for Borrower to secure replacement financing as long as Borrower Parties are diligently pursuing said refinancing in good faith), without any Applicable Prepayment Fee due thereon so long as no Event of Default exists as of either the date Lender so accelerates or Borrower elects prepayment of said Allocated Loan Amount and the date said Allocated Loan Amount is fully and finally repaid.




Section 3.3.  Condemnation Awards.Borrower shall promptly notify Lender of the receipt by a Borrower Party of notice of the institution of any proceeding for the condemnation or other taking of any Property or any portion thereof.  Lender may participate in any such proceeding relating to a Major Damage Event and the applicable Individual Borrower shall deliver to Lender all instruments necessary or required by Lender to permit such participation.  Without Lender’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), no Borrower Party, in connection with any Major Damage Event, shall agree to any compensation or award and/or take any action or fail to take any action which would cause the compensation to be determined.  All awards and compensation for the taking or purchase in lieu of condemnation of any Property or any part thereof are hereby assigned to and shall be paid to Lender for application to the Obligations (except as expressly provided below).  Borrower Parties authorize Lender to collect and receive such awards and compensation, to give proper receipts and acquittances therefor, and to apply the same toward the payment of the Obligations in such order, priority and proportions as Lender in its reasonable discretion shall deem proper (and provided no Event of Default exists as of the date Lender applies such condemnation proceeds to the Obligations, no Applicable Prepayment Fee shall be payable in connection with any such prepayment), notwithstanding that the Obligations may not then be due and payable; provided, however, that if the condemnation in question does not constitute a Major Damage Event and the applicable Individual Borrower requests that such proceeds be used for non-structural site improvements (such as landscape, driveway, walkway and parking area repairs) to the affected Property which are required to be made as a result of such condemnation, Lender will apply the award to such restoration in accordance with disbursement procedures applicable to Net Proceeds.  Borrower Parties, upon request by Lender, shall execute all instruments reasonably requested by Lender to confirm the assignment of the awards and compensation to Lender, free and clear of all Liens, charges (except as expressly set forth above) or encumbrances.  If Lender applies condemnation proceeds to the Allocated Loan Amount relating only to the affected Property, the lien of the Loan Documents shall be reduced only by the amount of such proceeds





-28-








actually applied by Lender in reduction of the Obligations, but if such proceeds do not discharge the Obligations in full, then Lender may elect to accelerate repayment of, or Borrower may elect to repay, the entire remaining outstanding balance of the Allocated Loan Amount relating only to the affected Property, such prepayment to be made in either case within one hundred twenty (120) days following notice from the electing party to the other party (or such longer period as may be reasonably necessary for Borrower Parties to secure replacement financing as long as Borrower Parties are diligently pursuing said refinancing in good faith), without any Applicable Prepayment Fee due thereon so long as no Event of Default exists as of both the date Lender so accelerates or Borrower elects repayment of said Allocated Loan Amount and the date said Allocated Loan Amount is fully and finally repaid.




Section 3.4.  Impounds.




(a)  In connection with a permitted assumption or transfer of the Loan pursuant to Subsection 7.1(c), and in order to assure compliance with Borrower’s obligations pursuant to Section 7.2, but not in lieu of such obligations, Borrower (or its permitted successor) shall deposit with Lender, monthly on each Payment Date (commencing on the first Payment Date following Lender’s written request), one-twelfth (1/12th) of the annual charges for Taxes (collectively, “Impounds”).Each deposit shall be in an amount reasonably determined by Lender that will be sufficient (when combined with other monthly installments) to make full payment of all Impounds thirty (30) days prior to the date any delinquency or penalty becomes due with respect to such Impounds.  Deposits shall be made on the basis of the Impounds which have been fixed for the then current year; provided, however, that prior to the date that such Impounds have been so fixed, deposits shall be made on the basis of Lender’s reasonable estimate from time to time of the amount of Impounds for the then current year (after giving effect to any recalculation or reassessment or, at Lender’s election, on the basis of the Impounds for the prior year).  All funds so deposited shall not be construed as trust funds, may be held by Lender, without interest, and may be commingled with Lender’s general funds.  Borrower Parties (including any permitted successor to Borrower Parties) hereby grants to Lender a security interest in all Impounds so deposited with Lender for the purpose of securing the Obligations.  Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, all Impounds deposited with Lender may be applied in payment of the Impounds for which such funds have been deposited, or to the payment of the Obligations, as Lender may elect, but no such application shall be deemed to have been made by operation of law or otherwise until actually made by Lender.  Borrower’s permitted successor shall furnish Lender with bills for the Impounds at least thirty (30) days prior to the date on which such Impounds first become payable.  If at any time Lender determines that the amount on deposit with Lender, together with the monthly installments to be deposited by Borrower’s permitted successor before the Impounds are payable, are insufficient to pay the Impounds, Borrower’s permitted successor shall deposit any deficiency with Lender within the Demand Period.  Provided no Event of Default has occurred, Lender shall pay the Impounds when the amount on deposit with Lender is sufficient to pay such Impounds and Lender has received a bill for such Impounds.




(b)  Borrower Parties acknowledges that Lender may, at any time Impounds are not being collected by Lender pursuant to Section 3.4(a) and at the sole cost and expense of Borrower, engage the services of a tax service company to verify the status of taxes and assessments on the Portfolio.  Lender shall be entitled to rely upon (regardless of whether or not





-29-





Lender engages a tax service company) any certificate, advice or bill from any authority (or any official thereof) to which such payments are payable, and Lender shall have no duty to inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such certificate, advice or bill or to make any protest in connection therewith.




(c)  Nothing contained in this Section 3.4 shall be deemed to affect any right, power, privilege or remedy of Lender under any provision of this Agreement, the Mortgage, any other Loan Document or any statute or rule of law, to pay any amount required to be paid pursuant to Section 7.2, to add the amount so paid to the Obligations and to require Borrower to reimburse Lender for such amount, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the expiration of the Demand Period until payment in full is received by Lender.  In the event of any transfer of Borrower’s right, title and interest in or to all or any part of the Portfolio (without implying any consent of Lender to any such transfer except as expressly set forth in this Agreement), Lender shall be entitled to treat such transfer as also effecting an assignment to the transferee of all right, title and interest of Borrower Parties in and to any and all such deposits relating to the transferred portion of the Portfolio.  After any assignment by Lender of its interest in the Loan, any such deposits on hand shall, in Lender’s discretion, be turned over to the assignee or returned to Borrower Parties, and all further responsibility of Lender with respect to such deposits shall terminate.

(b)  From and after the Funding Date, no Borrower Party nor any Person acting on behalf of a Borrower Party shall, without the prior written consent of Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld):  (i) enter into any Major Lease, (ii) enter into any amendment, modification, replacement, extension of, or renewal of any Major Lease (whether in existence as of the Funding Date or entered into after the Funding Date), other than extensions and/or renewals expressly contemplated by the terms of any approved Major Lease, (iii) enter into any amendment, modification, replacement, extension, or renewal of any non-Major Lease in a manner that would cause such non-Major Lease to become a Major Lease, (iv) consent to an assignment or subletting associated with any Major Lease, or (v) terminate or accept or acquiesce to the surrender of any Lease (regardless of whether said termination relates to a Major Lease or a non-Major Lease), other than a termination that is expressly provided for in such Lease; provided that Lender’s approval for the termination or surrender of a non-Major Lease shall not be required if following any such termination or surrender, the aggregate Portfolio occupancy continues to be at least eighty percent (80%) (for purposes of this subsection (b), “occupancy” means Tenants in occupancy, paying rent at the rates stipulated in their respective Leases and without any other economic or material non-economic default under such Leases).

Section 5.5.  Other Agreements; Defaults.No Borrower Party is a party to any agreement or instrument or subject to any court order, injunction, permit, or restriction which might adversely affect any Property or the business, operations, or condition (financial or otherwise) of any Borrower Party.

Section 7.1.  Due on Sale and Encumbrance; Transfers of Interests.




(a)  Without the prior written consent of Lender and except as expressly provided below:

Lender shall not be required to demonstrate any actual impairment of its security or any increased risk of default in order to declare the Obligations to be immediately due and payable upon a Transfer in violation of this Agreement.  This provision shall apply to every Transfer in violation of this Agreement regardless of whether such Transfer was voluntary or not, or whether or not Lender has previously consented to any Transfer.




(b)  Notwithstanding the restrictions in Subsection 7.1(a), Permitted Transfers will be permitted without Lender’s prior consent.  Carveout Indemnitor (or any successor permitted under clause (a)(iii) of the definition of “Permitted Transfer” in Section 1.1) shall at all times, whether prior to or following the occurrence of any Permitted Transfer, be the sole general partner of each Individual Borrower.




(c)  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, Lender shall consent to a one-time transfer of title to the Portfolio and assumption of 100% of the Loan and the duties and obligations of Borrower and Carveout Indemnitor under the Loan Documents, subject to satisfaction of each and every one of the following conditions:

(ii)  Lender must approve, in the exercise of its discretion, the identity, creditworthiness, management abilities and all other attributes of the proposed purchaser and the proposed replacement Carveout Indemnitor(s), and their respective principals, affiliates and parent or other majority owners, as applicable;




(iii)  No Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, either as of the date of the Assumption Request or thereafter through the date of transfer of title to the Portfolio and assumption of the Loan;

(v)  At the closing of any approved transfer and assumption, the proposed purchaser shall assume the duties and obligations of Borrower Parties under the Loan Documents (subject to the limitations on liability set forth in Article 10) pursuant to assumption documents in form and substance satisfactory to Lender (in the exercise of its reasonable judgment).  Additionally, at the time of the approved transfer and assumption, the proposed purchaser shall provide to Lender an environmental indemnity agreement from said purchaser and from another financially responsible Person acceptable to Lender (in its discretion) in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender (which form may be different from the form executed by Borrower Parties as a result of Lender’s updating its standard form of environmental indemnity agreement or as a result of specific environmental conditions at any Property) and a recourse carveout indemnity in substantially the same form as the Carveout Indemnity, also from a financially responsible Person acceptable to Lender (in its discretion).  Borrower Parties and the proposed purchaser and such other Persons as Lender shall require shall also deliver and, if applicable, execute (A) evidence of authority and entity existence, (B) Uniform Commercial Code, judgment and bankruptcy searches, (C) Uniform Commercial Code financing statements, (D) an endorsement to the Title Policy updating the effective date to the date of the transfer, showing the purchaser as the owner of each Property, showing no additional title exceptions, except as shall be approved by Lender (in its discretion) and otherwise in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Lender, (E) opinions of counsel reasonably acceptable to Lender on such matters as Lender shall reasonably require, (F) evidence of insurance as required by Section 3.1, and (G) such other documents as Lender shall reasonably require in order to effectuate the transaction as contemplated by this Subsection (c);

-39-





of transfer in accordance with this Subsection (c); provided that in no event shall any Borrower Party be released from any liability accruing prior to the date of the transfer of the Portfolio pursuant to this Subsection (c), including acts or omissions leading to a violation of Environmental Laws (as defined in the Environmental Indemnity Agreement), whether known or unknown as of the closing of the approved transfer;

The Assumption Work Fee shall be applied to reimburse Lender for its costs and expenses (with any excess after full payment of all of Lender’s costs and expenses being applied to the Assumption Fee or returned to Borrower Parties), but the Assumption Work Fee shall not be deemed to be a cap or limitation on the  obligation of Borrower to reimburse Lender for all costs and expenses incurred by Lender under this Subsection (c), regardless of whether such amounts exceed the Assumption Work Fee and/or Lender, in the exercise of its judgment, does not approve the proposed purchaser, any proposed replacement guarantor or any other aspect of the proposed transfer; and




(xi)  Lender shall have no obligation to review or process the request of Borrower Parties for approval of a proposed transfer of the Portfolio and assumption of the Loan until such time as Lender has received all of the items, including the Assumption Work Fee, required to be delivered to Lender pursuant to this Subsection (c).




(d)  Notwithstanding the restrictions in Subsection 7.1(a), Lender shall not withhold its consent to any pledge by Carveout Indemnitor of the general partnership interests in Borrower in order to secure so-called “mezzanine” financing subject to satisfaction (to be determined by Lender in the exercise of its reasonable judgment) of each and every one of the following conditions:

(v)  At all times following the closing of such pledge and the proposed mezzanine financing, Carveout Indemnitor shall remain the sole general partner of each Individual Borrower and shall continue to control the exercise of all rights, powers and privileges afforded to Carveout Indemnitor in its capacity as general partner under the applicable partnership agreements and other organizational documents and applicable laws, and no pledgee of Carveout Indemnitor’s general partnership interests in any Individual Borrower may take title to such general partnership interests or exercise any of the rights, powers and privileges afforded to Carveout Indemnitor in its capacity as general partner; and




(e)  The prohibitions and restrictions set forth in this Article 7 shall not preclude:  (i) any Borrower Party from granting liens that encumber real property other than the Collateral, or (ii) Carveout Indemnitor from providing indemnities or guaranties in favor of creditors other than Lender; it being agreed such actions may be effected without Lender’s consent.

If a Property Manager is so required by Lender, Borrower shall immediately seek to appoint a Property Manager acceptable to Lender (in the exercise of its reasonable discretion), which Property Manager shall (i) be a reputable management company having at least ten (10) years’ experience in the management of properties

-53-





penalties (whether civil or criminal), (D) any such failure cannot reasonably be cured within the thirty (30) day cure period, and (E) the applicable Borrower Party shall have commenced a reasonable cure for such Potential Default within the thirty (30) day cure period and thereafter diligently and expeditiously proceeds to cure the same, then the thirty (30) day cure period shall be extended for so long as it shall be reasonably necessary for the applicable Borrower Party, in the exercise of due diligence, to cure such Potential Default (Borrower Parties agreeing that they shall bear the burden of proof before any court, arbitrator or other trier of fact in connection with establishing the reasonableness of any cure or extended cure period and/or that Lender is acting in a commercially unreasonable manner if Lender makes a determination adverse to such Borrower Party under subsections (B) or (C) of this subparagraph (u)); provided, further, that in no event shall the cure period available under this subparagraph (u) exceed ninety (90) days in the aggregate.




Section 8.2.  Remedies.




(a)  Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, interest shall automatically begin to accrue at the Default Rate, and at the option of Lender (except in connection with any of the Events of Default described in Section 8.1(k) through (o), when acceleration is automatic), all Obligations shall become immediately due and payable, and Lender may exercise all rights and remedies under the Loan Documents and at law or in equity, all without written notice and without presentment, demand, protest, notice of protest or dishonor, notice of intent to accelerate the maturity thereof, notice of acceleration of the maturity thereof, or any other notice of default of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by each Borrower Party for itself and all other Borrower Parties.




(b)  Upon the occurrence of any of the events specified in Section 8.1(k) through (o), interest shall automatically begin to accrue at the Default Rate, all Obligations shall automatically become immediately due and payable, and Lender may exercise all rights and remedies under the Loan Documents and at law or in equity, all without written notice and without presentment, demand, protest, notice of protest or dishonor, notice of intent to accelerate the maturity thereof, notice of acceleration of the maturity thereof, or any other notice of default of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by each Borrower Party for itself and all other Borrower Parties.




Section 8.3.  Lender’s Right to Perform the Obligations.




(a)  If a Borrower Party shall fail, refuse or neglect to make any payment or perform any act required by the Loan Documents and such failure constitutes an Event of Default, then without notice to or demand upon any  Borrower Party or any other Person, and without waiving or releasing any other right, remedy or recourse Lender may have because of such Event of Default, Lender may (but shall not be obligated to) make such payment or perform such act for the account of and at the expense of Borrower Parties, and shall have the right to enter upon any Property for such purpose and to take all such action thereon and with respect to such Property as it may deem necessary or appropriate.




(b)  If Lender shall elect to pay any sum due with reference to any Property, Lender may do so in reliance on any bill, statement or assessment procured from the appropriate





-54-





Governmental Authority or other issuer thereof without inquiring into the accuracy or validity thereof. Similarly, in making any payments to protect the security intended to be created by the Loan Documents, Lender shall not be bound to inquire into the validity of any apparent or threatened adverse title claim, Lien, encumbrance, claim or charge before making an advance for the purpose of preventing or removing the same.




(c)  Each Individual Borrower shall jointly and severally indemnify, defend and hold Lender harmless from and against any and all losses, liabilities, claims, damages, expenses, obligations, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred or accruing by reason of any acts performed by Lender pursuant to the provisions of this Section 8.3, including those arising from the joint, concurrent, or comparative negligence of Lender, except as a result of Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.  All sums paid by Lender pursuant to this Section 8.3, and all other sums expended by Lender to which it shall be entitled to be indemnified, shall be paid by Borrower to Lender prior to expiration of the Demand Period.  Any costs and expenses due and payable to Lender pursuant to this Section 8.3 shall bear interest at the Default Rate from the expiration of the Demand Period until payment in full is received by Lender, and if Borrower fails to reimburse Lender within the Demand Period, then Lender may, in its discretion, either (i) without additional notice to Borrower, add such amounts to the principal balance of the Obligations to accrue interest at the Contract Rate and be secured by the Loan Documents, or (ii) deem the failure by Borrower to make timely reimbursement as an Event of Default and continue to accrue interest at the Default Rate in connection with such unpaid amounts until repayment in full.

Section 9.2.  Amendments and Waivers.No purported amendment or waiver of any provision of the Loan Documents shall be effective unless in writing and signed by the party against whom enforcement is sought.




Section 9.3.  Limitation on Interest.Under no circumstances shall the aggregate amount paid or agreed to be paid as interest under the Loan Documents exceed the highest lawful rate permitted under applicable usury law of the State or of any state in which any Property is located, and the payment obligations of Borrower Parties under the Loan Documents are hereby limited accordingly.  If under any circumstances, whether by reason of advancement or acceleration of the unpaid principal balance of the Loan or otherwise, the aggregate amounts paid on the Loan shall include amounts which by law are deemed interest and which would exceed such highest lawful rate, Borrower Parties hereby stipulate that payment and collection of such excess amounts shall have been and will be deemed to have been the result of a mistake on the part of both Borrower Parties and Lender, and Lender shall, at its option, either return such excess to Borrower Parties or credit such excess against the principal balance of the Obligations then outstanding (without application of any Applicable Prepayment Fee), in which event any and all penalties of any kind under applicable law as a result of such excess interest shall be inapplicable.




Section 9.4.  Invalid Provisions.If any provision of any Loan Document is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, then (i) such provision shall automatically be deemed fully severable; (ii) the Loan Documents shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision had never comprised a part thereof; (iii) the remaining provisions of the Loan Documents shall remain in full effect and shall not be affected by the illegal, invalid, or





-56-








unenforceable provision or by its severance therefrom; and (iv) in lieu of such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision there shall be added automatically as a part of such Loan Document a provision as similar in terms to such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision as may be possible so that said substitute provision is legal, valid and enforceable.




Section 9.5.  Payment and Reimbursement of Expenses.




(a)  In addition to its reimbursement or payment obligations set forth elsewhere in this Agreement or in the other Loan Documents, and prior to the expiration of any Demand Period, Borrower Parties shall pay to Lender or, at Lender’s option, shall reimburse Lender, for all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements and fees and expenses of appraisers and environmental professionals) incurred by Lender in connection with (i) intentionally omitted; (ii) intentionally omitted; (iii) 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 (including leasing matters) requested by Borrower Parties; (iv) the filing and recording fees and expenses, title insurance and reasonable fees and expenses of attorneys for providing to Lender all required legal opinions, and other similar expenses incurred, in creating and perfecting the Liens and security interest in favor of Lender pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; (v) 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 a Borrower Party, this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Portfolio, or any other security given for the Obligations; and (vi) enforcing any obligations of or collecting any payments due from Borrower Parties under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or with respect to the Portfolio 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.




(b)  Any costs and expenses due and payable to Lender pursuant to this Section 9.5 shall bear interest at the Default Rate from the expiration of the applicable Demand Period until Lender receives payment in full.  If Borrower Parties fail to reimburse Lender prior to the expiration of the applicable Demand Period, then Lender may, in its discretion, either (i) without additional notice to Borrower Parties, add such amounts to the principal balance of the Obligations to accrue interest at the Contract Rate and be secured by the Loan Documents, or (ii) deem the failure of Borrower Parties to make timely reimbursement to be an Event of Default and continue to accrue interest at the Default Rate in connection with such unpaid amounts until repayment in full.




Section 9.6.  Approvals; Third Parties; Conditions.All approval rights retained or exercised by Lender with respect to Leases, contracts, plans, studies and other matters shall not be deemed or construed as a determination that Lender has passed on the adequacy thereof for any other purpose and may not be relied upon by Borrower Parties or any other Person.  This Agreement is for the sole and exclusive use of Borrower Parties and Lender and may not be enforced, nor relied upon, by any Person other than Borrower Parties and Lender. All conditions of the obligations of Lender hereunder, including Lender’s discretionary right to make protective advances pursuant to Sections 8.3 or 9.5, are imposed solely and exclusively for the benefit of Lender, its successors and assigns, and no other Person shall have standing to require satisfaction





-57-





of such conditions or be entitled to assume that Lender will refuse to make advances (if any) in the absence of strict compliance with any or all of such conditions, and no other Person shall, under any circumstances, be deemed to be a beneficiary of such conditions, any and all of which may be freely waived in whole or in part by Lender at any time in Lender’s discretion.




Section 9.7.  Lender Not in Control; No Partnership.None of the covenants or other provisions contained in this Agreement shall, or shall be deemed to, give Lender the right or power to exercise control over the affairs or management of a Borrower Party, the power of Lender being limited to the rights to exercise the remedies referred to in the Loan Documents, at law or in equity.  The relationship between Borrower Parties and Lender is, and at all times shall remain, solely that of debtor and creditor. No covenant or provision of the Loan Documents is intended, nor shall it be deemed or construed, to create a partnership, joint venture, agency or common interest in profits or income between Lender and Borrower Parties or to create any equity in the Portfolio in Lender.  Lender neither undertakes nor assumes any responsibility or duty to Borrower Parties or to any other Person with respect to the Portfolio or the Loan, except as expressly provided in the Loan Documents, and notwithstanding any other provision of the Loan Documents: (i) Lender is not, and shall not be construed as, a partner, joint venturer, alter ego, manager, controlling person or other business associate or participant of any kind of a Borrower Party or its stockholders, members, or partners (as the case may be) and Lender does not intend to ever assume such status; (ii) Lender shall in no event be liable for any Debts, expenses or losses incurred or sustained by a Borrower Party; and (iii) Lender shall not be deemed responsible for or a participant in any acts, omissions or decisions of a Borrower Party or its stockholders, members, or partners (as the case may be).  Lender and Borrower Parties each disclaim any intention to create any partnership, joint venture, agency or common interest in profits or income between Lender and a Borrower Party, or to create equity in the Portfolio in Lender, or any sharing of liabilities, losses, costs or expenses.




Section 9.8.  Time of the Essence.Time is of the essence with respect to the performance of each Borrower Parties’ obligations under the Loan Documents.




Section 9.9.  Successors and Assigns.This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Lender, Borrower Parties and their respective successors and assigns, provided that no  Borrower Party shall, without the prior written consent of Lender (which may be granted or withheld in Lender’s discretion) or except as expressly permitted pursuant to Section 7.1, assign any rights, duties or obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document.




Section 9.10.  Servicing, Transfers, Assignments and Participations.




(a)  At the option of Lender, the Loan may be serviced by a servicer (the “Servicer”) selected by Lender from time to time and Lender may delegate all or any portion of its responsibilities under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to the Servicer pursuant to a servicing agreement between Lender and Servicer.  Servicer shall be entitled to reimbursement of costs and expenses as and to the same extent (but without duplication) as Lender is entitled thereto under the applicable provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, provided that Borrower Parties shall not be obligated to pay any servicing fee payable to the Servicer by Lender.  Upon notice thereof from Lender, Servicer shall have the right to exercise all rights of Lender and enforce all obligations of Borrower Parties pursuant to the provisions of








-58-





this Agreement, the Note and the other Loan Documents.  Provided Borrower Parties shall have been given notice of Servicer’s address by Lender, Borrower Parties shall deliver to Servicer duplicate originals of all notices and other instruments which Borrower Parties may or shall be required to deliver to Lender pursuant to this Agreement, the Note and the other Loan Documents (and no delivery of such notices or other instruments by Borrower Parties shall be of any force or effect unless delivered to Lender and Servicer as provided above).




(b)  Lender may at any time sell, transfer or assign the Note, this Agreement, the Mortgage, and the other Loan Documents, and any or all servicing rights with respect thereto or grant participations therein or issue mortgage pass-through certificates, provided that Lender shall remain as the “lead” lender and primary contact for all required consents and approvals under the Loan Documents.  Lender may forward to any present, future or prospective purchaser, assignee, servicer, participant or investor (each, a “Transferee”), all documents and information which Lender now has or may hereafter acquire relating to any Borrower Party or the Portfolio, whether furnished by a Borrower Party, any Property Manager or any other Person, as Lender determines necessary or desirable; provided that Lender receives a reasonable undertaking from the applicable Transferee to maintain the confidential nature (if any) of such information. Each Borrower Party shall cooperate with Lender in connection with any transfer made pursuant to this Section 9.10, including the delivery of an estoppel certificate and such other documents as may be reasonably requested by Lender.  Each Borrower Party shall also furnish, and hereby consents to Lender furnishing to such Transferee, any and all current or updated information concerning its financial condition and any and all information concerning the Portfolio as may be requested by Lender or any Transferee; provided that Lender receives a reasonable undertaking from the applicable Transferee to maintain the confidential nature (if any) of such information.  No exercise by Lender of any transfer rights pursuant hereto shall operate to release or diminish the duties, obligations or liabilities of any Borrower Party under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.




(c)  Without in any way limiting Lender’s other rights hereunder, Lender shall have the right, in its discretion at any time after the Funding Date, to require Borrower Parties to split the Loan into one or more loans secured by the Portfolio (individually, a “Split Loan” and collectively, the “Split Loans”), provided that (i) the aggregate principal amount of all notes evidencing the Split Loans shall equal the outstanding principal balance of the Loan immediately prior to the creation of such split notes, (ii) the aggregate debt service payments on the Split Loans shall on the date created equal the debt service payment which was due under the Loan immediately prior to the creation of such Split Loans, and (iii) the other terms and provisions of the documents evidencing and/or securing the Split Loans shall be substantially similar in form and substance to the Loan Documents.  Borrower Parties, at no cost or expense to it, shall cooperate with all reasonable requests of Lender in order to establish the Split Loans and shall execute and deliver such documents as shall be reasonably required by Lender in connection therewith, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender, including modified and severed notes, mortgages and other security documents in such denominations as Lender shall determine in its discretion, release documents and any and all documents necessary to assign the Split Loans.




Section 9.11.  Replacement Documents.Upon receipt of an affidavit of an officer of Lender as to the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of the Note or any other document(s) which





-59-





is not of public record and, in the case of any such destruction or mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of the Note or other document(s), Borrower Parties shall issue, in lieu thereof, a replacement Note or other document(s) in the same principal amount thereof and otherwise of like tenor.




Section 9.12.  Renewal, Extension or Rearrangement.All provisions of the Loan Documents shall apply with equal effect to each and all promissory notes and amendments thereof hereinafter executed which in whole or in part represent a renewal, extension, increase or rearrangement of the Loan.




Section 9.13.  Waivers.No course of dealing on the part of Lender, its officers, employees, attorneys, consultants or agents, nor any failure or delay by Lender with respect to exercising any right, power, privilege or remedy of Lender under any of the Loan Documents, shall operate as a waiver thereof.




Section 9.14.  Cumulative Rights.All rights and remedies of Lender under the Loan Documents, at law or in equity shall be cumulative, and the exercise or partial exercise of any such right or remedy shall not preclude the exercise of any other right or remedy.




Section 9.15.  Exhibits and Schedules.The exhibits and schedules attached to this Agreement are incorporated herein and shall be considered a part of this Agreement for the purposes stated herein.




Section 9.16.  Titles of Articles, Sections and Subsections.All titles or headings to articles, sections, subsections or other divisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or the exhibits hereto and thereto, are only for the convenience of the parties and shall not be construed to have any effect or meaning with respect to the other content of such articles, sections, subsections or other divisions, such other content being controlling as to the agreement between the parties hereto.




Section 9.17.  Promotional Material.Borrower Parties authorizes Lender to issue press releases, advertisements and other promotional materials in connection with Lender’s own promotional and marketing activities, and describing the Loan in general terms or in detail and Lender’s participation in the Loan.  All references to Lender contained in any press release, advertisement or promotional material issued by any Borrower Party must be approved in writing by Lender in advance of issuance.




Section 9.18.  Survival.All of the representations, warranties, covenants, and indemnities made in this Agreement, the Environmental Indemnity Agreement or any other Loan Document shall survive the repayment in full of the Obligations and the release of the Liens evidencing or securing the Loan, and shall survive the transfer (by sale, foreclosure, conveyance in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise) of any or all right, title and interest in and to all or any portion of the Collateral to any party.




Section 9.19.  Governing Law.The Loan Documents are being executed and delivered, and are intended to be performed, in the State and the laws of the State and of the United States of America shall govern the rights and duties of the parties hereto and the validity, construction,





-60-





enforcement and interpretation of the Loan Documents, except to the extent otherwise specified in any of the Loan Documents.




Section 9.20.  Entire Agreement.This Agreement and the other Loan Documents embody the entire agreement and understanding between Lender and Borrower and supersede all prior agreements and understandings between such parties relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof.  Accordingly, the Loan Documents may not be contradicted by evidence of prior, contemporaneous, or subsequent oral agreements of the parties.  There are no unwritten oral agreements between the parties.




Section 9.21.  Counterparts.This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which shall constitute one document.




Section 9.22.  Obligations of Borrower, Joint and Several.If more than one Person has executed this Agreement or any other Loan Document as “Borrower”, “Grantor” or “Assignor”, the obligations of all such Persons hereunder or thereunder shall be joint and several.




Section 9.23.  WAIVER OF PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES.NEITHER LENDER NOR BORROWER PARTIES SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE OR LIABLE TO THE OTHERS OR TO ANY OTHER PERSON FOR ANY PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES WHICH MAY BE ALLEGED AS A RESULT OF THE LOAN OR THE TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, INCLUDING ANY BREACH OR OTHER DEFAULT BY ANY PARTY HERETO.




Section 9.24.  WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, EACH BORROWER PARTY AND LENDER HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION BASED ON THE TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENT (WHETHER VERBAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTION OF ANY PARTY OR ANY EXERCISE BY ANY PARTY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS UNDER THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR IN ANY WAY RELATING TO THE LOAN OR THE COLLATERAL (INCLUDING ANY ACTION TO RESCIND OR CANCEL THIS AGREEMENT, AND ANY CLAIM OR DEFENSE ASSERTING THAT THIS AGREEMENT WAS FRAUDULENTLY INDUCED OR IS OTHERWISE VOID OR VOIDABLE).  THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR LENDER TO ENTER THIS AGREEMENT.
