ARTICLE V 
 COVENANTS

 From the date hereof and until repayment of the Debt in full and performance in full of all obligations of Borrower and Guarantor
under the Loan Documents, Borrower hereby covenants and agrees with Bank that: 
 Section 5.1. Existence; Compliance With Legal
Requirements.
 (a) Each Borrower shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve, renew and keep in full force and
effect its existence, rights, licenses, permits and franchises and comply in all material respects with all Legal Requirements applicable to such Borrower and its Project. Each Borrower hereby covenants and agrees not to commit or permit to
exist any act or omission affording any Governmental Authority the right of forfeiture as against its Project or any part thereof or any monies paid in performance of such Borrower’s obligations under any of the Loan Documents. 

(b) Each Borrower agrees that its Project shall at all times comply in all material respects, to the extent applicable, with the Access
Laws. Notwithstanding any provisions set forth herein or in any other documents regarding Bank’s approval or alterations of its Project, no Borrower shall alter its Project in any manner which would materially increase such Borrower’s
responsibilities beyond the extent customary for properties comparable to its Project for compliance with the applicable Access Laws without the prior written approval of Bank, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or
delayed. The foregoing shall apply to tenant improvements constructed by any Borrower or any of Borrower’s Tenants. Bank may condition any such approval upon receipt of a certificate of Access Law compliance from an architect, engineer, or
other person acceptable to Bank. Each Borrower agrees to give prompt notice to Bank of the receipt by such Borrower of any written complaints related to violations of any Access Laws and of the commencement of any proceedings or investigations
which relate to compliance with applicable Access Laws. 

  
 24 








 (c) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section, no Borrower shall be deemed to be in
default solely by reason of such Borrower’s failure to comply with any applicable Legal Requirement so long as, in Bank’s reasonable judgment, each of the following conditions is satisfied: (i) Borrower is engaged in and diligently
pursuing in good faith administrative or judicial proceedings appropriate to contest the validity or amount of such law, rule regulation or order; (ii) Borrower’s compliance with such law, rule, regulation or order would necessarily and
materially prejudice Borrower’s prospects for success in such proceedings; (iii) noncompliance with any such law, rule, regulation or order will not result in the loss or forfeiture of its Project or any other collateral for the Loan or any
interest of Bank therein or result in any fines or other punitive actions or any insurance coverage; and (iv) Borrower deposits with Bank, as security for any payment or performance which may ultimately be required, a sum equal to the amount of any
fine, assessment or charge plus the interest, penalties, and other costs which Bank reasonably estimates are likely to become payable if Borrower’s contest is unsuccessful. If Bank determines that any one or more of such conditions is not
satisfied or is no longer satisfied, Borrower shall comply with the law, rule regulation or order in question, within thirty (30) days after Bank gives written notice of such determination. 

Section 5.2. Maintenance and Use of Project. Each Borrower shall maintain or cause to be maintained its Project in a
good and safe condition and repair. Except for alterations permitted under Section 5.19, the improvements and the personal property owned by Borrower with respect to the Project shall not be removed, demolished or materially altered without the
written consent of Bank, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed; provided, however, that such personal property may be removed from Project without the prior consent of Bank if such personal property is obsolete or
is otherwise replaced with personal property of reasonably equivalent value. If under applicable zoning provisions the use of all or any portion of its Project is or shall become a nonconforming use, no Borrower shall cause or permit the
nonconforming use to be discontinued or the nonconforming improvement to be abandoned without the express written consent of Bank, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed. No Borrower shall establish any
condominium or cooperative regime with respect to its Project without the prior written consent of Bank, nor shall any Borrower initiate, join in or consent to any change in any private restrictive covenant, zoning ordinance or other public or
private restrictions, limiting or defining the uses which may be made of its Project or any portion thereof.

5.3. Waste. No Borrower shall commit any intentional material waste of its Project or make any change in the use of its Project which shall in any way invalidate or give cause for cancellation of any Policy, or do or permit
to be done thereon anything that may in any way materially impair the value of its Project or the security for the Loan. Borrower shall not, without the prior written consent of Bank, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld,
conditioned, or delayed, permit any drilling or exploration for or extraction, removal, or production of any minerals from the surface or the subsurface of its Project, regardless of the depth thereof or the method of mining or extraction thereof,
except as may be required by law or in accordance with the orders of any Governmental Authorities having jurisdiction thereof.

and complete copies of all Leases for the Project including all amendments thereto or extensions thereof, and any guarantees thereof, all solely to the extent not previously delivered to Bank.

 32 








 
any material amendment or modification of the Lease made without the consent of Bank or such successor in interest, unless such consent is not required pursuant to this Section 5.27. Each
Large Lease shall also provide that, upon request by said successor in interest, such lessee shall execute and deliver an instrument or instruments confirming such attornment. Within ten (10) days after Borrower’s request, Bank will enter
into a commercially reasonable subordination, non-disturbance agreement with respect to any Lease. 
 Section 5.28. Debt Service
Coverage Ratio.
 (a) Borrower shall maintain a minimum debt service coverage ratio (“DSCR”) of 1.40:1.00. The
DSCR shall be tested on an annual basis with the first test to be performed in 2017 based on the year end operating statements for the annualized period ending on December 31, 2016, and shall be measured from year-end operating statements for each
year thereafter. The DSCR shall be calculated as the ratio of Borrower’s Net Income to the Debt Service on a trailing 12 months basis for years 2016 and thereafter. 

“Borrower’s Net Income” shall mean for any period, all Borrower’s actual income from the Project, as may be adjusted from time to
time to add back abated rent amounts less the sum of (i) a vacancy allowance at the greater of 5% of gross revenue or actual vacancy, (ii) replacement reserves at $0.25 per square foot of Project space (per the Property Condition Report) and (iii)
management fees at the greater of 4% of gross revenue or actual management fees. 
 “Debt Service” shall mean for any period the principal
payable under the Note plus accrued interest payable under the Note.
 (b) The certificate of Bank as to any DSCR calculation shall, absent
manifest error, be final, conclusive and binding on Borrower. 
 (c) Should Borrower fail to meet the DSCR, Borrower may, no later than 30
days after receipt of notice from Bank that Borrower is not in compliance with the DSCR, pay down the outstanding Loan Amount or pledge fully restricted cash collateral to Bank upon terms acceptable to Bank (the “Cash Collateral
Pledge”), to extent necessary to bring the DSCR in compliance. For the purposes of calculating the DSCR after a Cash Collateral Pledge, cash collateral shall be deemed a dollar for dollar reduction in the outstanding Loan amount in
calculating the Debt Service. The method to derive the implied monthly principal payments in calculating the implied Debt Service (based on the reduced Loan principal) shall be consistent with the Bank’s method for calculating the monthly
Loan principal payment as set forth in the Note. 
 Section 5.29. Capital Expenditure Reserve Account. Each Borrower
shall deposit in a reserve account with Bank (the “Capital Reserve Account”) at the time of each payment of an installment of interest and/or principal under the Note, an additional amount equal to the Monthly Capex Payment (defined
below), to fund capital future expenditures for repair and replacement of Project improvements, furniture, fixtures and equipment. The determination of the amount so payable and of the fractional part thereof to be deposited with Bank, so that
the aggregate of such deposits shall be sufficient for this purpose, shall be an amount not less than the Capital Expenditure Reserve Minimum (as set forth below). Such amounts shall be held in a


  
 33 








 
fully restricted non-interest bearing account pledged to Bank, as additional security for the Debt, but shall be applied by each Borrower, and made available by Bank, to the payment of costs
incurred by Borrower in connection with the repair, replacement, and upgrade of its Project improvements. Disbursements from the Capital Reserve Account shall be made within 10 Business Days after Borrower’s submission to Bank, of a
disbursement request (on Bank’s standard form) and copies of (i) invoices, receipts and billing statements setting forth the costs of such repair and replacement work or material, (ii) if requested by Bank with respect to expenditures exceeding
$250,000.00, a certificates from an architect or third party inspector certifying the installation of materials or improvements to its Project, provided that Bank shall have notified Borrower in writing of such requirement prior to Borrower’s
commencement of the applicable work, and (iii) if applicable, conditional lien releases from workmen, materialmen, contractors or subcontractors providing services or materials in excess of $100,000.00, in connection with such repair or replacement
work or material.
 Upon an Event of Default, the balance of any Capital Reserves Account may be used and applied for any purpose authorized
pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, including, without limitation, payment of the Debt in any order Bank may deem appropriate. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to affect any right or remedy of Bank under any
provisions of this Agreement or of any statute or rule of law to pay any such amount and to add the amount so paid, together with interest at the Involuntary Rate, to the Debt. 

The amount of $10,203.00 (“Monthly Capex Payment”) reflecting one month of the Capital Reserve Minimum shall be debited from
each Borrower’s operating account and deposited in the Capital Reserves Account commencing on the first monthly payment of interest and/or principal under the Note and continuing each month thereafter with each monthly payment of interest
and/or principal under the Note. However, in no event shall Borrower be obligated to fund the Capital Reserve Account to an amount exceeding $1.00 per square foot.

Any disbursement from the Capital Reserve Account shall be deposited to the Operating Account.

Section 5.30. Intentionally Omitted. 

Section 5.31. UCC Filings. Borrower and Guarantor hereby agree that upon an Even of Default, Bank shall have the right
to order UCC, judgment and lien searches against Borrower and Guarantor at Borrower’s sole cost and expense. Borrower shall be responsible for all out of pocket costs actually incurred by Bank to continue the UCC-1 Financing Statements

 ARTICLE VII 

NO SALE OR ENCUMBRANCE 

Section 7.1. Transfer Definitions. For purposes of this Article VII, an “Affiliated Manager” shall mean any
managing agent of the Project in which Borrower, Guarantor or any Affiliate of such Persons has directly or indirectly, any legal, beneficial or economic interest; “Control” shall mean the power to direct the management and policies
of a Restricted Party, directly or indirectly, whether through the ownership of voting securities or other beneficial interests, by contract or otherwise; “Restricted Party” shall mean Borrower, any Affiliated Manager, or any

 37 








 
options with respect to, or any other transfer or disposition of (directly or indirectly, voluntarily or involuntarily, by operation of law or otherwise, and whether or not for consideration or
of record) a legal or beneficial interest. For the avoidance of doubt, as of the Closing Date neither Tower Realty Asset Management, Inc., a Florida corporation, nor Tower Realty Partners, Inc., a Florida corporation, is an Affiliated Manager
hereunder. 
 Section 7.2. No Sale/Encumbrance. 

(a) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Article VII, Borrower shall not cause or permit a Sale or Pledge of the Project or any part
thereof or any legal or beneficial interest therein nor permit a Sale or Pledge of an interest in any Restricted Party (in each case, a “Prohibited Transfer”) without the prior written consent of Bank, or delayed, unless and until

the transferor of such interest. 
 (b) Borrower acknowledges that Bank has examined and relied on the experience of Borrower and its
stockholders, general partners, members, principals and (if Borrower is a trust) beneficial owners in owning and operating properties such as the Project, in agreeing to make the Loan, and will continue to rely on each Borrower’s ownership of
its Project as a means of maintaining the value of such Borrower’s Project as security for repayment of the Debt and the performance of the obligations contained in the Loan Documents. Borrower acknowledges that Bank has a valid interest
in maintaining the value of the Project so as to ensure that, should Borrower default in the repayment of the Debt or the performance of the obligations contained in the Loan Documents, Bank can recover the Debt by a sale of the Project. 

(c) Without the prior written consent of Bank, except to the extent otherwise set forth in this Section 7.2, Borrower shall
not, and shall not permit any Restricted Party to do any of the following (individually or collectively, a “Transfer”): (i) sell, convey, mortgage, grant, bargain, encumber, pledge, assign, grant options with respect to,
or otherwise transfer or dispose of (directly or indirectly, voluntarily or involuntarily, by operation of law or otherwise, and whether or not for consideration or of record) the Project or any part thereof or any direct or indirect legal or
beneficial interest therein or (ii) permit a Sale or Pledge of an interest in any Restricted Party, other than in each case pursuant to easements, Leases, and other occupancy agreements made in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 

(d) A Transfer shall include, but not be limited to, (i) an installment sales agreement wherein Borrower agrees to sell the
applicable Project or any part thereof for a price to be paid in installments; (ii) an agreement by Borrower leasing all or a substantial part of the applicable Project for other than actual occupancy by a space tenant thereunder or a sale,

a corporation, any merger, consolidation or Sale or Pledge of such corporation’s stock or the creation or issuance of new stock; (iv) if a Restricted Party is a limited or general partnership or joint venture, any merger or consolidation or the
change, removal, resignation or addition of a general partner or the Sale or Pledge of the partnership interest of any general partner or any profits or proceeds relating to such 

  
 38 








 
partnership interest, or the Sale or Pledge of limited partnership interests or any profits or proceeds relating to such limited partnership interest or the creation or issuance of new limited
partnership interests; (v) if a Restricted Party is a limited liability company, any merger or consolidation or the change, removal, resignation or addition of a managing member or non-member manager (or if no managing member, any member) or the
Sale or Pledge of the membership interest of a managing member (or if no managing member, any member) or any profits or proceeds relating to such membership interest, or the Sale or Pledge of non-managing membership interests or the creation or
issuance of new non-managing membership interests; (vi) if a Restricted Party is a trust or nominee trust, any merger, consolidation or the Sale or Pledge of the legal or beneficial interest in a Restricted Party or the creation or issuance of new
legal or beneficial interests; or (vii) the removal or the resignation of the Manager (including, without limitation, an Affiliated Manager) other than in accordance with Section 5.13. For the avoidance of doubt, for purposes of this Section 7.2, a
Transfer or Prohibited Transfer shall not include (x) any issuances, redemptions, conversions, sales, purchases or transfers of the public shares of the REIT Operating Partnership or of City Office REIT, Inc., a Maryland corporation (“CIO
REIT”), or (y) any of the transactions, contributions, transfers or steps occurring on or prior to the date of this Agreement as described in the Registration Statement of the REIT Operating Partnership or CIO REIT filed with the U.S.
Securities and Exchange Commission that were required for the REIT Operating Partnership or CIO REIT to become an indirect owner of the Project. 

(e) Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 7.2, Bank’s consent shall not be required in connection with (A) one or
a series of Transfers other than publicly traded shares (excluding the Transfers referenced in subparts (B) and (C) immediately following) of not more than forty-nine percent (49%) of the direct or indirect stock, the limited partnership interests
or non-managing membership interests (as the case may be) in Borrower, (B) Transfers of direct or indirect interests in Borrower by and between existing Affiliates or any existing Restricted Party as the Closing Date, including, without limitation,
Transfers by Borrower Member of all of its interests in one or more Borrower to REIT Operating Partnership (C) Transfers of the limited partnership interests of the REIT Operating Partnership, including any redemption of such limited partnership
interests or the conversion of such limited partnership interests into shares of CIO REIT so long as CIO REIT continues to Control the REIT Operating Partnership, and (D) Transfers of direct and indirect interests in Borrower to any Qualified
Transferee; provided, however, in each case, no such Transfer or series of Transfers shall result in the change of Control in a Restricted Party, and each such Transfer shall be conditioned upon the following: (i) receipt by Bank of prompt notice of
each such Transfer (except, for the avoidance of doubt, with respect to transfers of the public shares of CIO REIT or Transfers of the limited partnership interests in the REIT Operating Partnership as described in subpart (C) above), (ii) continued
compliance with the relevant provisions of Article VI hereof, and (iii) Borrower’s ability to, after giving effect to such Transfer, remake the representations contained herein relating to ERISA matters and the Patriot Act, OFAC and matters
concerning Embargoed Persons (and, upon Bank’s request, Borrower shall deliver to Bank an certificate an Authorized Representative containing such updated representations effective as of the date of the consummation of such Transfer). In
addition, at all times, either (x) a Qualified Transferee (or an entity Controlled by a Qualified Transferee) or (y) the REIT Operating Partnership or CIO REIT must continue to directly or indirectly Control Borrower, Borrower Member (to the extent
still in existence) and any Affiliated Manager and must continue to own, directly or indirectly, at least a twenty five percent (25%) legal and beneficial interest in Borrower 

  
 39 








 (f) Notwithstanding anything in the Loan Documents to the contrary, REIT
Operating Partnership, may incur the following indebtedness without the Bank’s prior written consent: (i) unsecured indebtedness, (ii) indebtedness secured by interests in, or assets or accounts of, entities other than any Borrower or Borrower
Member, (iii) indebtedness secured by liens or mortgages on properties other than the Projects, and (iv) distributions of excess cash flow from the Projects by Borrower, Borrower Member and REIT Operating Partnership subject to the limitations set
forth in the Loan Documents. 
 Section 7.3. Bank’s Rights. Bank reserves the right
to condition the consent to a Prohibited Transfer requested hereunder upon (a) a modification of the terms hereof and an assumption of the Note and the other Loan Documents as so modified by the proposed Prohibited Transfer, (b) receipt of payment
of a transfer fee equal to $5,000 and all of Bank’s reasonable out-of-pocket expenses actually incurred in connection with such Prohibited Transfer, (c) the proposed transferee’s continued compliance with the covenants set forth in this
Agreement (including, without limitation, the covenants in Article VI and the other Loan Documents), (d) a new manager for the Project and a new management agreement satisfactory to Bank (if applicable), and (e) the satisfaction of such other
conditions and/or legal opinions as Bank shall determine in Bank’s sole and absolute discretion. All reasonable out of pocket expenses incurred by Bank shall be payable by Borrower whether or not Bank consents to the Prohibited
Transfer. Bank shall not be required to demonstrate any actual impairment of Bank’ security or any increased risk of default hereunder in order to declare the Debt immediately due and payable upon a Prohibited Transfer made without
Bank’s prior written consent. This provision shall apply to each and every Prohibited Transfer, whether or not Bank has consented to any previous Prohibited Transfer. 

Section 7.4. Assumption. Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that no transfer of all or any portion of the Project
to, and the related assumption of the Loan by, any Person shall be permitted under this Agreement. 
 ARTICLE VIII

(i) comprehensive “all risk” or “special causes of loss” insurance, including, without limitation, fire, flood,
windstorm, earthquake, terrorism, vandalism, malicious mischief and such other hazards as may be reasonably specified by Bank for the mutual benefit of Borrower and Bank and which is customarily maintained for like properties, including the
improvements and the fixtures (other than trade fixtures) at its Project, in each case (A) in an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the “Full Replacement Cost,” which for 

  
 40 








 
purposes of this Agreement shall mean actual replacement value (exclusive of costs of excavations, foundations, underground utilities and footings) and provided that windstorm, earthquake and
flood may have a sub limit reasonably acceptable to Bank; (B) containing a replacement cost endorsement and an agreed amount endorsement with respect to such improvements and fixtures (other than trade fixtures) and/or an endorsement waiving all
coinsurance provisions; (C) providing for no deductible in excess of $75,000 (or $100,000 with respect to earthquake insurance), and, with respect to windstorm coverage, no deductible in excess of five percent (5%) of total insurable value for
each Project not to exceed $500,000 maximum deductible (except with respect to windstorm coverage for named storms, for which such percentage limit shall apply but such dollar limit shall not apply), and containing an “Ordinance or Law
Coverage” or “Enforcement” endorsement. In addition, Borrower shall obtain, or cause to be obtained: (x) if any portion of the improvements is currently or at any time in the future located in a “special flood hazard
area” designated by the Federal Emergency Management Agency, flood hazard insurance in an amount equal to the maximum amount of such insurance available under 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; and (y) earthquake insurance in amounts and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Bank as determined by a probable maximum loss study or other acceptable
assessment of expected maximum loss, not to exceed the amount of indebtedness, in the event the Project is located in an area with a high degree of seismic risk provided that the insurance pursuant to clauses (x) and (y) hereof shall be on terms
consistent with the comprehensive all risk insurance policy required under this subsection (i) and further provided that regardless of the flood or seismic zone, Bank may require reasonable limits of insurance covering such risks; 

(ii) Commercial General Liability insurance against claims for personal injury, bodily injury, death or property damage occurring upon, in or
about the Project, covering at least the following hazards: (1) premises and operations; (2) independent contractors; and (3) contractual liability, with such insurance (A) to be on the so-called “occurrence” form with a general aggregate
limit of not less than $5,000,000 per location and a per occurrence limit of not less than $1,000,000; (B) with an aggregate limit of not less than $2,000,000 for products/completed operations coverage; (C) with a limit of not less than $1,000,000
for personal injury/advertising injury; and (D) with coverage to continue at not less than the aforesaid limits until required to be changed by Bank in writing by reason of changed economic conditions making such protection inadequate; 

(iii) loss of rents insurance or business income insurance, as applicable, (A) covering all risks required to be covered by the insurance
provided for in subsection (i) above; (B) which provides that after the physical loss to the improvements and fixtures (other than trade fixtures) occurs, the loss of rents or income, as applicable, will be insured until such completion of
Restoration and notwithstanding that the policy may expire prior to the end of such period; and (C) which contains an extended period of indemnity endorsement which provides that after the physical loss to the improvements and personal property has
been repaired, the continued loss of income will be insured until such income either returns to the same level it was at prior to the loss, or the expiration of at least twelve (12) months from the date that the Project is repaired or replaced and
operations are resumed, whichever first occurs, and notwithstanding that the policy may expire prior to the end of such period. The amount of such loss of rents or business income insurance, as applicable, shall be determined prior to the date
hereof and at least once 

  
 41 








 
each year thereafter based on Borrower’s reasonable estimate of the gross income from the Project for the succeeding period of coverage required above. All proceeds payable to Bank
pursuant to this subsection shall be held by Bank and shall be applied to the obligations secured by the Loan Documents with any remaining balance promptly payable to Borrower; provided, however, that nothing herein contained shall be
deemed to relieve Borrower of Borrower’s obligations to pay the obligations secured by the Loan Documents on the respective dates of payment provided for in the Note, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents except to the extent such amounts
are actually paid out of the proceeds of such loss of rents or business income insurance, as applicable; 
 (iv) at all times during which
structural construction, demolition, structural repairs or structural alterations are being made with respect to the improvements, and only if the property coverage form does not otherwise apply, 

(A) owner’s contingent or protective liability insurance covering claims not covered by or under the terms or provisions of the above
mentioned commercial general liability insurance policy; 
 (B) the insurance provided for in subsection (i) above written in a so-called
Builder’s Risk Completed Value form (1) on a non-reporting basis, (2) against “all risks” insured against pursuant to subsection (i) above, (3) including permission to occupy the Project, (4) with an agreed amount endorsement waiving
co-insurance provisions, and (5) including coverage for so-called “soft costs” and delayed completion loss of income; and 
 (C)
Borrower shall ensure, or cause to be insured, that the general contractor maintains (1) commercial general liability coverage, including products and completed operations coverage that shall be continuously renewed for the statutory period during
which claims can be made following completion of the project, (2) automobile liability insurance (including owned, hired and non-owned liability) and (3) umbrella/excess liability insurance with no less than $5,000,000, or such other amount
reasonably acceptable to Bank, in limits per occurrence and in the annual aggregate per project, and in addition Borrower shall ensure, or cause to be insured, that all trade contractors provide similar liability insurance coverage with umbrella
liability limits that are commensurate with the risks presented by their operations at the site as determined by the general contractor. All parties engaged in work on the improvements or on any restoration shall maintain any workers’
compensation and employer’s liability insurance required by law in force for all workers on the job. A certificate of insurance shall be issued to Borrower and Bank, naming each as Additional Insured (except with respect to workers’
compensation and employer’s liability), and evidencing all insurance required in this subsection. Borrower and Bank shall be named as Additional Insured with respect to the general contractor’s ongoing operations and completed
operations by endorsements satisfactory to Bank. Such insurance shall be primary and any other insurance maintained by the additional insured shall be excess only and not contributing with this insurance; 

(v) workers’ compensation, subject to the statutory limits of the State, and employer’s liability insurance in respect of any work
or operations on or about the Project, or in connection with the Project or its operation (if applicable); 

  
 42 








 (vi) intentionally omitted; 

(vii) excess liability insurance in an amount not less than $5,000,000 per occurrence and in the aggregate per location, or such other amount
reasonably acceptable to Bank, per occurrence and per location, on terms consistent with the commercial general liability insurance required under subsection (ii) above; and 

(viii) upon sixty (60) days’ written notice, such other reasonable insurance and in such reasonable amounts as Bank from time to time
may reasonably request against such other insurable hazards that at the time are commonly insured against for property similar to the Project located in or around the region in which the Project is located. 

(b) All insurance provided for in Section 8.1(a) hereof shall be obtained under valid and enforceable policies (collectively, the
“Policies” or in the singular, the “Policy”), and shall be in such forms and in such amounts as required above, and shall be subject to the reasonable approval of Bank as to insurance companies, amounts,
deductibles, loss payees and insureds. The Policies shall be issued by financially sound and responsible insurance companies authorized to do business in the State and having a general policy rating of “A-” or better and a financial
class of XI or better by A.M. Best Company, Inc. The Policies described in Section 8.1(a) hereof shall designate Bank and their successors and assigns as mortgagee, additional insured and/or loss payee as deemed appropriate by Bank. Not
less than ten (10) days prior to the expiration dates of the Policies theretofore furnished to Bank, Borrower shall deliver to Bank certificates evidencing renewal of the Policies (such certificates, the “Insurance Certificates”)
(and if requested by Bank, a copy of the Policies), accompanied by evidence satisfactory to Bank of payment of the premiums due with respect to the policies (the “Insurance Premiums”), and within thirty (30) days after the
expiration dates of such Policies, Borrower shall deliver to Bank renewal policies.
 (c) Any blanket property insurance Policy shall
specifically allocate to the Project the amount of coverage from time to time required hereunder and shall otherwise provide the same protection as would a separate Policy insuring only the Project in compliance with the provisions of Section 8.1(a)
hereof. 
 (d) All Policies provided for or contemplated by Section 8.1(a) hereof shall in the case of Policies providing for (i) property
damage, boiler and machinery, terrorism, flood and earthquake insurance, shall provide that the loss thereunder shall be payable to Bank, as mortgagee and loss payee, and (ii) commercial general liability insurance, such Policies shall name Bank as
additional insured. 
 (e) All Policies provided for in Section 8.1(a) hereof shall contain clauses or endorsements to the effect that: 

(i) no act or negligence of Borrower or anyone acting for or on behalf of Borrower or of any Tenant or other occupant, or failure to comply
with the provisions of any Policy, which 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 with respect to Bank; 

  
 43 








 (ii) the property damage insurance Policies, including boiler and machinery, earthquake, flood
and terrorism, if separately provided, shall not be materially changed (other than to increase the coverage provided thereby) or canceled without at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Bank (or ten (10) days for non-payment of
premiums) and any party named therein as an additional insured; 
 (iii) the issuers thereof shall give written notice to Bank if the
Policies have not been renewed ten (10) Business Days prior to their expiration; 
 (iv) Bank shall not be liable for any Insurance
Premiums thereon or subject to any assessments thereunder, provided that the insurer need not waive the requirement that the premium be paid in order for a claim to be paid and further shall provide that Bank is permitted to make payments to effect
the continuation of such policy upon notice of cancellation due to non-payment of premiums; 
 (v) the Policies do not contain an exclusion
for acts of terrorism; and 
 (vi) any claim or defense any property damage insurance company may have against Borrower to deny payment of
any claim by Borrower thereunder shall not be effective against Bank (and affirmatively providing that the insurance company will pay the proceeds of such Policy to Bank notwithstanding any claim or defense of the insurance company against Borrower)
and such Policies shall also contain a standard “Waiver of Subrogation” endorsement. 
 (f) If at any time Bank is not in receipt
of written evidence that all insurance required hereunder is in full force and effect, Bank shall have the right, upon not less than ten (10) Business Days’ prior written notice to Borrower (except in the event of an emergency or an imminent
lapse or loss of insurance coverage), to take such action as Bank deems necessary to protect Bank’s interest in the Project, including, without limitation, obtaining such insurance coverage as Bank in Bank’s reasonable discretion deems
appropriate. All reasonable out of pocket premiums paid or incurred by Bank in connection with such action or in obtaining such insurance and keeping it in effect shall be paid by Borrower to Bank promptly upon demand and shall bear interest at
the Involuntary Rate. 
 (g) Borrower shall not take out separate insurance concurrent in form or contributing (in the event of a loss) to
the insurance required to be maintained under this Section 8.1. Borrower may, however, carry, or permit Tenants to carry, insurance for the Project in addition to required insurance, but only if such additional insurance: (i) does not violate
or entitle the carrier to assert any defense or disclaim any primary coverage under any required insurance; (ii) mutually benefits Borrower or Tenants, as the case may be, and Bank, as their interests may appear; and (iii) otherwise complies with
this Agreement 
 (h) Bank acknowledges that Borrower’s insurance coverage in effect as of the Closing Date and approved by Bank
satisfies the requirements of Section 8.1. 
 Section 8.2. Insurance Reserves; Payment by Bank. Each Borrower shall
deposit in an account with Bank (the “Insurance Reserve Account”), at the time of each payment of an installment of interest and/or principal under the Note, an additional amount 

  
 44 








 
sufficient to discharge the Insurance Premiums under this Article VIII when they become due. The determination of the insurance reserve amount to be deposited and of the fractional part
thereof to be deposited in reserve with Bank, so that the aggregate of such deposits shall be sufficient for such purpose, shall be made by Bank in Bank’s sole but reasonable discretion. Such amounts shall deposited in the Insurance
Reserve Account and shall be applied by Borrower to the payment of the obligations in respect of which such amounts were deposited, on or before the respective dates on which the same or any of them would become delinquent. Borrower agrees and
acknowledges that it is Borrower’s sole responsibility to insure that the premium payment obligations under this Article VIII are paid on a timely basis and that Bank has no obligation to pay such premium payment. During the existence
of an Event of Default, the balance of any such amounts in the Reserves Account may be used and applied for any purpose authorized pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, including, without limitation, payment of the Debt in any order
Bank may deem appropriate. If, prior to the date any of the aforementioned obligations may be paid, the amounts then on deposit in the Reserves Account for payment of Insurance Premiums shall be insufficient for the payment of such obligation
in full, Borrower shall, within ten (10) days after demand, deposit the amount of the deficiency with Bank. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to affect any right or remedy of Bank under any provisions of this Agreement or the Mortgage or
of any statute or rule of law to pay any such amount and to add the amount so paid, together with interest at the Involuntary Rate, to the Debt. Prior to or at Loan closing, seven (7) months of the estimated Insurance Premium payment
obligations under this Article VIII, shall be deposited in the Insurance Reserve Account, with the next deposit amount of $6,302.47, reflecting one month of the estimated Insurance Premium payment obligations under this Article VIII to be debited
from Borrower’s operating account on the date of the next monthly payment of interest and/or principal under the Note. 
 Section
8.3. Casualty. If he Project shall be damaged or destroyed, in whole or in part, by fire or other casualty (a “Casualty”), Borrower shall give prompt notice of such damage to Bank and Bank shall have the
right to join Borrower in adjusting any loss. In addition, after the entry of any decree of foreclosure of the Mortgage, any purchaser at foreclosure sale or the decree creditor, as the case may be, shall also have the right to join in the
adjustment of any such losses. Any moneys received as payment for any loss under any such insurance (the “Insurance Proceeds”) shall be paid over to Bank to be applied, at Bank’s option subject to the terms hereof, either
to (i) prepayment of the Note and other sums due under the Loan Documents or (ii) to the extent reasonably practicable, the reimbursement of Borrower from time to time of expenses incurred by Borrower in connection with the restoration of the
Project (“Restoration Work”) and upon terms otherwise satisfactory to Bank. Bank shall have the right to participate in the adjustment of all claims for Insurance Proceeds. Borrower shall promptly commence and diligently
prosecute the restoration of the Project, provided that Bank makes the Insurance Proceeds available to Borrower. Subject to Bank making sufficient insurance proceeds available to Borrower, Borrower shall pay all costs of such restoration
whether or not such costs are covered by insurance. Provided and on condition that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any prepayment of the Debt by application of Insurance Proceeds shall not be subject to any Prepayment
Premium. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Bank will hold the Insurance Proceeds without interest and will release the insurance proceeds as restoration progresses in payment of restoration costs, subject to the following conditions: 

(a) There shall be no outstanding Event of Default; 

  
 45 








 (b) At the time of the restoration (including a reasonable stabilization period), there will be
Leases in place to generate sufficient income to cover all operating expenses of the Property and all debt service payments. 
 (c) Bank
shall approve the plans and specifications for the restoration, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed; 

(d) The size, quality and use of the Improvements on the Land, or, alternatively, the Property Income derived therefrom, shall be
substantially the same as or better than immediately prior to the casualty; 
 (e) There shall be funds on deposit at all times with Bank,
which together with any additional funds paid by Borrower, are sufficient to complete the restoration, as certified by an architect approved by Bank; 

(f) The insurance proceeds will be disbursed under such reasonable procedures as may be established by Bank; and 

(g) Such other conditions as Bank would customarily be require as a construction lender, or are otherwise reasonable. 

Section 8.4. Condemnation. Borrower shall promptly give Bank notice of the actual or threatened commencement of any
proceeding for the Condemnation of the Project of which Borrower has knowledge and shall deliver to Bank copies of any and all papers served in connection with such proceedings. Bank may participate in any such proceedings, and Borrower shall
from time to time deliver to Bank all instruments requested by Bank to permit such participation. Borrower shall, at Borrower’s sole cost and expense, diligently prosecute any such proceedings, and shall consult with Bank, Bank’s
attorneys and experts, and reasonably cooperate with them in the carrying on or defense of any such proceedings. In the event of such condemnation proceedings, the Award payable is hereby assigned to and shall be paid to Bank. Bank shall be
under no obligation to question the amount of any such Award and may accept the same in the amount in which the same shall be paid. The proceeds of any Award so received shall (except for a temporary taking the Award for which shall be paid
over to Borrower), at the option of Bank, and in the absence of a continuing Event of Default, either be (i) applied to the prepayment of the Note and other sums due under the Loan Documents at the rate of interest provided therein, regardless of
the rate of interest payable on the Award by the condemning authority, or (ii) to the extent reasonably practicable, paid over to Borrower from time to time for expenses incurred by Borrower in the restoration of the Project and upon terms otherwise
satisfactory to Bank, in Bank’s sole but reasonable discretion. Bank will not unreasonably withhold, condition, or delay its consent to application of the Award to restoration costs. Notwithstanding any taking by any public or
quasi-public authority through Condemnation or otherwise (including, but not limited to, any transfer made in lieu of or in anticipation of the exercise of such taking), Borrower shall continue to pay the Debt at the time and in the manner provided
for its payment in the Note and in this Agreement and the Debt shall not be reduced until any Award shall have been actually received and applied by Bank, after the deduction of 

  
 46 








 
expenses of collection, to the reduction or discharge of the Debt. Bank shall not be limited to the interest paid on the Award by the condemning authority but shall be entitled to receive
out of the Award interest at the rate or rates provided herein or in the Note. To the extent Borrower shall be entitled or permitted to do the same, if the Project or any portion thereof is taken by a condemning authority, Borrower shall
promptly commence and diligently prosecute the restoration of the Project provided that Bank shall make available to Borrower sufficient Award proceeds for such purpose. If the Project is sold, through foreclosure or otherwise, prior to the
receipt by Bank of the Award, Bank shall have the right, whether or not a deficiency judgment on the Note shall have been sought, recovered or denied, to receive the Award, or a portion thereof sufficient to pay the Debt. 

ARTICLE IX 
 SECURITY
INTEREST AND SET-OFF 
 Section 9.1. Security Interest. Borrower hereby grants to Bank or any other
Affiliate of Bank holding any of the Debt, a lien, security interest and right of setoff, as security for the Debt, and all other obligations and liabilities to Bank, whether now existing or hereafter arising, upon and against all deposits
(including deposits in Borrower’s operating accounts, tenant security deposit accounts and reserve account), credits, collateral and property relating to Borrower’s Project, now or hereafter in the possession, custody, safekeeping or
control of Bank or any entity under the control of Bank, or in transit to any of them. 
 Section 9.2. Set-Off and
Debit. If at any time following and during the continuance of an Event of Default Bank accelerates the Debt, then any such deposits, balances or other sums credited by or due from Bank, or from any such Affiliate of Bank, to

precedent now or hereafter imposed by statute, rule of law or otherwise, all of which are hereby waived, be set off, debited and appropriated, and applied by Bank against any or all of the Debt, in such manner as Bank in its sole but reasonable
discretion may determine. Within five (5) Business Days of making any such set off, debit or appropriation and application, Bank agrees to notify Borrower thereof, provided the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such
set off, debit or appropriation and application. ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO REQUIRE BANK TO EXERCISE ITS RIGHTS OR REMEDIES WITH RESPECT TO ANY OTHER COLLATERAL WHICH SECURES THE LOAN, PRIOR TO EXERCISING ITS RIGHT OF SETOFF WITH RESPECT TO SUCH
DEPOSITS, CREDITS OR OTHER PROPERTY OF THE BORROWER, ARE HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVED. 
 Section
9.3. Right to Freeze. Bank shall also have the right, at its option, upon the occurrence of any event which would entitle Bank to set off or debit as set forth in Section 9.2 of this Agreement, to freeze, block or
segregate any such deposits, balances and other sums so that Borrower may not access, control or draw upon the same. 
 Section
9.4. Additional Rights. The rights of Bank and each Affiliate of Bank under this Article IX are in addition to, and not in limitation of, other rights and remedies, including other rights of set off, which Bank may
have.

 ARTICLE XI 

PARTIAL RELEASES 
 Each
Borrower’s Project may be released (a “Released Project”) from the lien of its Mortgage subject to (i) satisfaction of the following conditions (“Partial Release Conditions”) and (ii) payment of outstanding
Loan principal in such amount as to satisfy Partial Release Conditions (c) and (d) below (the “Release Amount”): 
 (a)
There is at the time of such request and release, no Event of Default. 
 (b) Intentionally Omitted. 

(c) Determination by Bank that the remaining Project (“Un-Released Project”) can support a DSCR of 1.50:1.00, based on meeting
such DSCR from both (i) a trailing 12 month Borrower’s Net Operating Income on the Un-Released Project and (ii) a pro-forma Borrower’s Operating Income on the Un-Released Project based on income from in place Leases for the Un-Released
Project, not to include Leases expiring within 12 months of such release, but including any new Lease (as approved by Bank if required under Section 5.27) for which the payment of rent has not yet commenced thereunder. The Debt Service shall be
calculated based on the outstanding Loan principal (after accounting for the contemplated pay down of Loan principal for a Released Project) amortized over 30 years. 

(d) Determination by Bank that Loan to Value of the Un-Released Project shall not exceed 65%, based on appraisals reasonably acceptable to
Bank. Such determination will be based upon Bank’s most recent appraisal provided to Bank, except that Bank may require updated appraisals of the Un-Released Project if the most current appraisal of the Project required or ordered by Bank is 12
months or more older than the date of the release request or the release, and, in the Bank’s reasonable discretion, the Bank determines that there has been a deterioration in the market for the Project, and bank shall notify Borrower of the
requirement for updated appraisals within 15 days following receipt of Borrower’s notice that it intends to release a Project. Borrower shall pay the costs of any such updated appraisal.

Bank’s determination of whether Borrower meets the forgoing conditions shall be made within 15 business days of Borrower’s request
and submission of all documents and materials reasonable and necessary for Bank to make its determination.
 The Bank’s determination of the forgoing
conditions shall take into account any partial prepayment of the Note that will be made by Borrower in connection with the proposed partial release and any additional payment that Borrower elects to make in order to satisfy any of the conditions set
forth above, including, without limitation, the Loan to Value condition. Once Bank notifies Borrower of its determination of the values of the remaining Projects for purposes of determining the Loan to Value of the Un-Released Project, such
determination shall be binding upon Bank and Bank may not thereafter unilaterally modify such values, provided that Borrower closes on the sale and release of the Project within 120 days following receipt of written notice of Bank’s
determination.

  
 51 








 ARTICLE XII 

BORROWER’S ACCOUNTS 

Each Borrower shall be required to maintain all of its accounts associated with its Project with Bank. Without limitation of the

(ii) the Insurance Reserve Account, (iii) the Capital Reserve Account, and (iii) the TI/LC Reserve Account. Each Operating Account, Insurance Reserve Account, Capital Reserve Account, TI/LC Reserve Account, and all other accounts maintained by

Affiliates. Borrower shall pay all reasonable expenses of opening and maintaining the Accounts in amounts not to exceed those generally charged by Bank to similarly situated customers of Bank.

Borrower hereby pledges and assigns to Bank, and grants to Bank a first priority security interest in, all funds at any time on deposit in the
Accounts as additional Collateral for the Loan. Borrower will take, or authorizes Bank to take, all actions necessary to maintain in favor of Bank a perfected first priority security interest in the Accounts, including, without limitation,
filing UCC 1 financing statements and continuations thereof. All monies now or hereafter deposited into the Accounts shall be deemed additional security for the Loan. Borrower shall not, further pledge, assign or grant any security
interest in the Accounts, or permit any Lien to attach thereto, except a Permitted Encumbrance. This Agreement is, among other things, intended by the parties to be a security agreement for purposes of the Uniform Commercial Code. Borrower and
Bank further agree that it is the intent of the parties that this Agreement is an authenticated record evidencing Bank’s “control” of the Accounts (within the meaning of Section 9-104 of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the
State of Florida. Without limitation of the foregoing, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Bank shall have the right to apply funds in the Accounts to one or more of the following items, in Bank’s sole discretion, (i) to reduce the
outstanding principal balance of the Loan, (ii) to pay debt service, fees and costs due under the Loan Documents, (iii) to the payment of real estate taxes and/or insurance premiums for the Property, (iv) to fund a segregated escrow account to pay
costs to lease the Property and (v) to increase the balance of the Operating Account; provided, however, that Borrower shall remain liable at all times for all of the foregoing payment obligations, regardless of whether there are sufficient funds
therefor in the Accounts. 
 ARTICLE XIII 

RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE 

Bank reserves the right to transfer, assign and/or grant participation interests of up to $15,000,000 of the Loan, but no such transfer,
assignment or grant of participation interests shall affect or limit the rights and obligations of Bank, Borrower and Guarantor as set forth in the Loan Documents. Bank may disclose to, or share with, any actual or prospective assignee,
transferee or participant all information, including, but not limited to, financial information, in Bank’s possession regarding the Loan, Borrower, Guarantor, or the Project.

the “Indemnified Liabilities”); provided, however, that Borrower shall not have any obligation to Bank hereunder to the extent that such Indemnified Liabilities arise from the gross negligence, illegal acts, fraud or
willful misconduct of Bank. To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify, defend and hold harmless set forth in the preceding sentence may be unenforceable because it violates any law or public policy, Borrower shall pay the maximum portion
that it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by Bank. 

Section 14.2. Intangible Tax Indemnification. Borrower shall, at Borrower’s sole cost and expense, protect,
defend, indemnify, release and hold harmless the Indemnified Parties from and against any and all Losses imposed upon or incurred by or asserted against any Indemnified Parties and directly or indirectly arising out of or in any way relating to any

correcting any prohibited transaction or in the sale of a prohibited loan, and in obtaining any individual prohibited transaction exemption under ERISA that may be required, in Bank’s sole and absolute discretion) that Bank may incur, directly

FURTHER ASSURANCES 

Section 16.1. Replacement and Corrective Documents. Upon receipt of an affidavit of an officer of Bank as to the loss,
theft, destruction or mutilation of the Note or any other Loan Document which is not of public record, and, in the case of any such mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of such Note or other Loan Document, Borrower and Guarantor shall issue,
in lieu thereof, a replacement Note or other Loan Document, dated the date of such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note or other Loan Document in the same principal amount thereof and otherwise of like tenor. Borrower and Guarantor hereby
consents and agrees that in the event that any of the Loan Documents misstate or inaccurately reflect the true and correct terms and provisions of the Loan and said misstatement or inaccuracy is due to the unilateral mistake on the part of Bank,
mutual mistake on the part of any of Bank, Borrower and Guarantor or clerical error, then in such event Bank, Borrower and Guarantor shall, within thirty (30) days after written request of any of them and in order to correct such misstatement or
inaccuracy, execute such new documents such parties may deem necessary to remedy said inaccuracy or mistake.

Agreement or for filing or registering of the Mortgage, or for complying with all Legal Requirements. Borrower and Guarantor, on demand, shall deliver, and in the event Borrower or Guarantor shall fail to so deliver, hereby authorizes Bank to
file, in the name of Borrower and Guarantor, one or more financing statements and financing statement amendments to evidence more effectively, perfect and maintain the priority of the security interest of Bank in the Project.

  
 55 








 Section 16.3. Changes in Tax, Debt, Credit and Documentary Stamp Laws. 

(a) If any law is enacted or adopted or amended after the date of this Agreement which deducts the Debt from the value of any of the Project
for the purpose of taxation or which imposes a tax, either directly or indirectly, on the Debt or Bank’s interest in the Project, Borrower shall pay the tax, with interest and penalties thereon, if any. If Bank is advised by counsel chosen
by Bank that the payment of tax by Borrower would be unlawful or taxable to Bank or unenforceable or provide the basis for a defense of usury then Bank shall have the option by written notice of not less than one hundred twenty (120) days to declare
the Debt immediately due and payable.
 (b) If at any time the United States of America, any State thereof or any subdivision of any such
State shall require revenue or other stamps to be affixed to the Note, the Mortgage, or any of the other Loan Documents or impose any other tax or charge on the same, Borrower shall pay for the same, with interest and penalties thereon, if any. 

Section 16.4. Expenses. Borrower covenants and agrees to pay or, if Borrower or Guarantor fails to pay, to reimburse,
Bank upon receipt of written notice from Bank for all reasonable out of pocket costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and disbursements for outside counsel) incurred by Bank in accordance with this Agreement in connection with (a) the
preparation, negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and all the costs of furnishing all opinions by counsel for
Borrower and Guarantor (including, without limitation, any opinions requested by Bank as to any legal matters arising under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents with respect to the Project); (b) Borrower’s and Guarantor’s ongoing
performance of and compliance with Borrower’s and Guarantor’s agreements and covenants contained in this Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents on its part to be performed or complied with after the Closing Date, including,

to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other documents or matters requested by Bank; (e) securing Borrower’s and Guarantor’s compliance with any requests made pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement; (f) the filing and
recording fees and expenses, title insurance and reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for providing to Bank all required legal opinions, and other similar expenses incurred in creating and perfecting the Lien in favor of Bank pursuant to this
Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents; (g) 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
Borrower or Guarantor, this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Project, or any other security given for the Loan; and (h) enforcing any obligations of or collecting any payments due from Borrower under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents

determine in Bank’s sole discretion. No delay or omission to exercise any remedy, right or power accruing upon 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 Borrower or Guarantor shall not be construed to be a waiver of any subsequent Default or
Event of Default by Borrower or to impair any remedy, right or power consequent thereon. 
 Section 17.2. Modification, Waiver in
Writing. No modification, amendment, extension, discharge, termination or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, or of the Note, or of any other Loan Document, nor consent to any departure by Borrower or Guarantor 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 Borrower or Guarantor shall entitle Borrower or Guarantor to any other or future notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances. 

Section 17.3. Delay Not a Waiver. Neither any failure nor any delay on the part of Bank in insisting upon strict
performance of any term, condition, covenant or agreement, or exercising any right, power, remedy or privilege hereunder, or under the Note 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 due date of any amount payable under this Agreement, the Note or any other Loan Document, Bank shall not be deemed to have waived any right either to require prompt payment when due of all other amounts due under this Agreement, the Note
or the other Loan Documents, or to declare a default for failure to effect prompt payment of any such other amount. 
 Section
17.4. Trial by Jury. BORROWER AND BANK EACH HEREBY AGREES NOT TO ELECT A TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY ISSUE TRIABLE OF RIGHT BY JURY, 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 WAIVER OF RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IS GIVEN KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY BY BORROWER AND BANK, AND IS INTENDED TO
ENCOMPASS INDIVIDUALLY EACH INSTANCE AND EACH 

  
 57 








 
ISSUE AS TO WHICH THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY WOULD OTHERWISE ACCRUE. EACH OF BANK AND BORROWER IS HEREBY AUTHORIZED TO FILE A COPY OF THIS PARAGRAPH IN ANY PROCEEDING AS CONCLUSIVE
EVIDENCE OF THIS WAIVER BY BORROWER AND BANK. 
 Section 17.5. Waiver of Notice. Borrower and Guarantor shall not be
entitled to any notices of any nature whatsoever from Bank except with respect to matters for which this Agreement or the other Loan Documents specifically and expressly provide for the giving of notice by Bank to Borrower and Guarantor and except
with respect to matters for which Borrower or Guarantor is not, pursuant to applicable Legal Requirements, permitted to waive the giving of notice. Borrower hereby expressly waives the right to receive any notice from Bank 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 Bank to Borrower. 

Section 17.6. Intentionally Omitted. 

Section 17.7. Waiver of Marshalling of Assets. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Borrower for itself and its
successors and assigns, waives all rights to a marshalling of the assets of Borrower and other Persons with interests in Borrower, and of the Project, 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 Bank under the Loan Documents to a foreclosure of the Mortgage for the
collection of the Debt without any prior or different resort for collection or of the right of Bank to the payment of the Debt out of the net proceeds of the Project in preference to every other claimant whatsoever. 

Section 17.8. Waiver of Statute of Limitations. Borrower hereby expressly waives and releases, to the fullest extent
permitted by law, the pleading of any statute of limitations as a defense to payment of the Debt or performance of its other obligations set forth in the Loan Documents. 

Section 17.9. Waiver of Counterclaim. Borrower hereby waives the right to assert a counterclaim, other than a
compulsory counterclaim, in any action or proceeding brought against it by Bank or Bank’s agents; provided, however, that such waiver shall not prejudice or otherwise affect Borrower’s ability to bring any separate claim against Bank.

 Section 19.5. Intentionally Omitted. 

Section 19.6. Offsets, Counterclaims and Defenses. Any assignee of Bank’s interest in and to this Agreement, the
Note 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 Borrower or Guarantor may otherwise have against any assignor of such documents, and no such
unrelated counterclaim or defense shall be interposed or asserted by Borrower or Guarantor 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 Borrower; provided, however, that such waiver shall not prejudice or otherwise affect the ability of Borrower to bring any such claim, or raise any such defense, in a separate
action. 
 Section 19.7. No Joint Venture or Partnership; No Third Party Beneficiaries. 

(a) Borrower and Bank 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 Borrower, Guarantor, and Bank nor to grant Bank any interest in the Project other than that of
secured party or lender. Borrower hereby knowingly, voluntarily, intentionally, unconditionally and irrevocably waives and relinquishes all claims, demands, counterclaims and/or defenses alleging the existence of any partnership, joint venture
or other fiduciary relationship between Bank and Borrower and Borrower shall hold Bank and Bank’s successors and assigns, harmless from and against any and all losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees and related costs,
judgments and any other fees, costs and expenses that Bank may sustain as a result of any such allegation by any person or entity whatsoever. 

(b) This Agreement and the other Loan Documents are solely for the benefit of Bank and Borrower and Guarantor and nothing contained in this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to confer upon anyone other than Bank and Borrower and Guarantor any right to insist upon or to enforce the performance or observance of any of the obligations contained herein or
therein. All conditions to the obligations of Bank to enter into this Agreement and make the financial accommodations provided for hereunder are imposed solely and exclusively for the benefit of Bank and no other Person shall have standing to
require satisfaction of such conditions in accordance with their terms or be entitled to assume that Bank will refuse to enter into this Agreement or make the financial accommodations provided for hereunder 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 Bank if, in Bank’s sole discretion, Bank deem it advisable or
desirable to do so. 
 (c) The Borrower Member is experienced in the ownership and operation of properties similar to the Project, and Bank
is relying solely upon such expertise and business plan in connection with the ownership and operation of the Project. 

  
 61

to have warranted, consented to, or affirmed the sufficiency, the legality or effectiveness of same, and such acceptance or approval thereof shall not constitute any warranty or affirmation with respect thereto by Bank. 

(f) Borrower and Guarantor recognize and acknowledge that in accepting this Agreement, the Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents,
Bank is expressly and primarily relying on the truth and accuracy of the representations and warranties set forth in Article IV of this Agreement without any obligation to investigate the Project and notwithstanding any investigation of the Project
by Bank; that such reliance existed on the part of Bank prior to the date hereof, that the warranties and representations are a material inducement to Bank in entering into this Agreement and making the financial accommodations provided for
hereunder; and that Bank would not be willing to enter into this Agreement and make the financial accommodations provided for hereunder and accept this Agreement, the Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents in the absence of the warranties
and representations as set forth in Article IV of this Agreement. 
 Section 19.8. Publicity. Subject to the prior
written approval of Borrower, Bank shall be permitted to make any news, releases, publicity or advertising by Bank or Bank’s Affiliates through any media. Subject to the prior written approval of Borrower, Bank may share any information
pertaining to the Loan with third-parties in connection with the sale or transfer of the Loan or any participation thereof. 
 Section
19.9. Conflict; Construction of Documents; Reliance. 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 competent counsel in connection with the negotiation, drafting and execution 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. Borrower acknowledges that, with respect to the Loan, Borrower shall rely solely on its own judgment and advisors in entering into the Loan without relying in any manner on any statements, representations
or recommendations of Bank or any parent, subsidiary or Affiliate of Bank.
 Section 19.10. Actions, Approvals and
Determinations. Wherever in this Agreement it is provided that (a) as a condition precedent to Borrower’s undertaking certain action, Borrower shall be required to obtain Bank’s consent or approval or (b) Bank shall have the
right to make a determination (including, without limitation, a determination as to whether a matter is satisfactory to Bank), or if Borrower shall request that Bank take any action, then, unless expressly provided to the contrary in the applicable
provision of this Agreement, the 

  
 62 








 
decision whether to grant such consent or approval or to take the requested action, or the determination in question, shall, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, be in the sole and
exclusive discretion of Bank and shall be final and conclusive. Wherever in this Agreement it is stated that any consent or approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or that a determination to be made by Bank shall be subject to a specified
standard, then, if a court of competent jurisdiction determines, without right to further appeal, that the consent or approval shall be deemed granted or the standard shall be deemed met, as the case may be, then Bank, at the request of Borrower,
shall deliver to Borrower written confirmation thereof. 
 Section 19.11. Entire Agreement. 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 Borrower and
Bank are superseded by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 
 Section 19.12. Intentionally
Omitted.
 Section 19.13. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts,
and each such counterpart shall for all purposes be deemed to be an original, and all such counterparts together constitute but one and the same agreement. In addition, the parties may execute separate signature pages, and such signature pages
(and/or signature pages which have been detached from one or more duplicate original copies of this Agreement) may be combined and attached to one or more copies of this Agreement so that such copies shall contain the signatures of all of the
parties hereto.
