ARTICLE 2     
LOAN
2.1    Loan.  By and subject to the terms of this Agreement, Lenders agree to lend to Borrower, and Borrower agrees to borrow from Lenders, the aggregate principal sum of ONE HUNDRED TWENTY MILLION AND NO/100THS DOLLARS ($120,000,000.00), said sum to be evidenced by the Notes.  The Notes shall be secured, in part, by the Security Instrument.  Amounts disbursed to or on behalf of Borrower pursuant to the Note shall be used to refinance the Property and for such other purposes and uses as may be permitted under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
2.2    Rates and Payment of Interest on Loans.
(a)    Interest Payments.  Interest accrued on the outstanding principal balance of the Loan shall be due and payable, in the manner provided in Section 2.3, on the first day of each month commencing with the first month after the Effective Date.
(b)    Default Interest.  Notwithstanding the rates of interest specified in Section 2.2(e) below and the payment dates specified in Section 2.2(a), at Requisite Lenders’ discretion at any time following the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default, the principal balance of the Loan then outstanding and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any interest payments on the Loan not paid when due, shall bear interest payable upon demand at the Default Rate.  All other amounts due Administrative Agent or Lenders (whether directly or for reimbursement) under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents if not paid when due, or if no time period is expressed, if not paid within ten (10) days after demand, shall likewise, at the option of Requisite Lenders, bear interest from and after demand at the Default Rate.
(c)    Late Fee.  Borrower acknowledges that any late payment to Administrative Agent will cause Administrative Agent and Lenders to incur costs not contemplated by this Agreement.  Such costs include, without limitation, processing and accounting charges.  Therefore, if Borrower fails timely to pay any sum due and payable hereunder through the Maturity Date (other than payment of the entire outstanding balance of the Loan on the Maturity Date), unless waived by Administrative Agent, a late charge of four cents ($.04) for each dollar of any such principal payment, interest or other charge due hereon and which is not paid within fifteen (15) days after 

24




Loan No. 1005062


such payment is due, shall be charged by Administrative Agent for the benefit of Lenders and paid by Borrower for the purpose of defraying the expense incident to handling such delinquent payment.  Borrower and Lenders agree that this late charge represents a reasonable sum considering all of the circumstances existing on the date hereof and represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs that Lenders will incur by reason of late payment.  Borrower and Lenders further agree that proof of actual damages would be costly and inconvenient.  In the event the maturity of the Obligations hereunder occurs or is accelerated pursuant to Section 10.2, this Section shall apply only to payments overdue prior to the time of such acceleration.  Acceptance of any late charge shall not constitute a waiver of the default with respect to the overdue installment, and shall not prevent Administrative Agent from exercising any of the other rights available hereunder or any other Loan Document.  Such late charge shall be paid without prejudice to any other rights of Administrative Agent.
(d)    Computation of Interest.  Interest shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which interest or fees accrue and a year of three hundred sixty (360) days on the principal balance of the Loan outstanding from time to time.  In computing interest on the Loan, the date of the making of a disbursement under the Loan shall be included and the date of payment shall be excluded.  Notwithstanding any provision in this Section 2.2, interest in respect of the Loan shall not exceed the maximum rate permitted by applicable law.
(e)    Effective Rate.  Provided no Default exists under this Agreement or under any of the other Loan Documents, the “Effective Rate” upon which interest shall be calculated for the Loan shall, from and after the Effective Date of this Agreement, be one or more of the following:  
(i)    Portions Not at Fixed Rate. For those portions of the principal balance of the Notes which are not Fixed Rate Portions, the Effective Rate shall be the One-Month LIBO Rate determined by Administrative Agent.
(ii)    Fixed Rate Portions. For those portions of the principal balance of the Notes which are Fixed Rate Portions, the Effective Rate for the Fixed Rate Period thereof shall be the Fixed Rate set in accordance with the provisions hereof; provided, however, if any of the transactions necessary for the calculation of interest at any Fixed Rate requested or selected by Borrower should be or become prohibited or unavailable to Administrative Agent, or, if in Administrative Agent’s good faith judgment, it is not possible or practical for Administrative Agent to set a Fixed Rate for a Fixed Rate Portion and Fixed Rate Period as requested or selected by Borrower, the Effective Rate for such Fixed Rate Portion shall remain at or revert to the One-Month LIBOR Rate.
(iii)    Post-Maturity; Default Rate. During such time as a Default exists under this Agreement; or from and after the date on which all sums owing under the Notes become due and payable by acceleration or otherwise; or from and after the date on which the Collateral or any portion thereof or interest therein, is sold, transferred, mortgaged, assigned, or encumbered, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, or by operation of law or otherwise, without Administrative Agent’s prior written consent (whether or not the sums owing under the Notes become due and payable by acceleration); or from and after the Maturity Date, 

25




Loan No. 1005062


then at the option of Requisite Lenders in each case, the interest rate applicable to the then outstanding principal balance of the Loan shall be the Default Rate.
(f)    Selection of Fixed Rate.  Provided no Default or Potential Default exists under this Agreement, Borrower, at its option and upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth herein, may request a Fixed Rate as the Effective Rate for calculating interest on the portion of the unpaid principal balance and for the period selected in accordance with and subject to the following procedures and conditions, provided, however, that Borrower may not have in effect at any one time more than three (3) Fixed Rate Portions:
(i)    Written Requests.  Borrower shall deliver to the Winston-Salem Loan Center, One West Fourth Street, Winston-Salem, North Carolina 27101, Attention: Anne F. Hutchinson, with a copy to 301 South College Street, 4th Floor, Charlotte, North Carolina 28202, Attention: Anand J. Jobanputra, or such other addresses as Administrative Agent shall designate, an original or facsimile Fixed Rate Notice no later than 9:00 A.M.(Central), and not less than three (3) or more than five (5) Business Days prior to the proposed Fixed Rate Period for each Fixed Rate Portion.  Any Fixed Rate Notice pursuant to this subsection (i) is irrevocable.
(ii)    Telephonic Request.   Administrative Agent is authorized to rely upon the telephonic request and acceptance of Jon Stanner or Diane Morefield, as Treasurer and Chief Financial Officer, respectively, of Borrower, as Borrower’s duly authorized agents, or such additional authorized agents as Borrower shall designate in writing to Administrative Agent.  Borrower’s telephonic notices, requests and acceptances shall be directed to such officers of Administrative Agent as Administrative Agent may from time to time designate.
(iii)    Converting to Fixed Rate Portion.  Borrower may, with a timely and complying Fixed Rate Notice, elect (A) to convert all or a portion of the principal balance of the Note which is accruing interest at the One-Month LIBO Rate determined by Administrative Agent, to a Fixed Rate Portion, or (B) to convert a matured Fixed Rate Portion into a new Fixed Rate Portion, provided, however, that the aggregate amount of the advance being converted into or continued as a Fixed Rate Portion shall comply with the definition thereof as to Dollar amount.  The conversion of a matured Fixed Rate Portion back to the One-Month LIBO Rate determined by Administrative Agent, or to a new Fixed Rate Portion shall occur on the last Business Day of the Fixed Rate Period relating to such Fixed Rate Portion.  Each Fixed Rate Notice shall specify (A) the amount of the Fixed Rate Portion, (B) the Fixed Rate Period, and (C) the Fixed Rate Commencement Date.
(iv)    Fixed Rate Applicable to Fixed Rate Period.  Upon receipt of a Fixed Rate Notice in the proper form requesting a Fixed Rate for a Fixed Rate Portion advance under subsections (i) and (ii) above, Administrative Agent shall determine the Fixed Rate applicable to the Fixed Rate Period for such Fixed Rate Portion two (2) Business Days prior to the beginning of such Fixed Rate Period.  Each determination by Administrative Agent of the Fixed Rate shall be conclusive and binding upon the parties hereto in the absence of manifest error.  Administrative Agent shall deliver to Borrower and each Lender (by facsimile) an acknowledgment of receipt and confirmation of the Fixed Rate Notice; 

26




Loan No. 1005062


provided, however, that failure to provide such acknowledgment of receipt and confirmation of the Fixed Rate Notice to Borrower or any Lender shall not affect the validity of such rate. 
(v)    Expiration of Fixed Rate Period.    If Borrower does not make a timely election to convert all or a portion of a matured Fixed Rate Portion into a new Fixed Rate Portion in accordance with Section 2.2(f)(iii), such Fixed Rate Portion shall automatically begin to accrue interest at the One-Month LIBO Rate determined by Administrative Agent, upon the expiration of the Fixed Rate Period applicable to such Fixed Rate Portion.
(g)    Intentionally Omitted. 
(h)    Taxes, Regulatory Costs and Reserve Percentages.  Upon Administrative Agent’s demand, Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender, in addition to all other amounts which may be, or become, due and payable under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, any and all Taxes and Regulatory Costs, to the extent they are not internalized by calculation of an Effective Rate.  Further, at Administrative Agent’s option, the Effective Rate shall be automatically adjusted by adjusting the Reserve Percentage, as determined by Administrative Agent in its prudent banking judgment, from the date of imposition (or subsequent date selected by Administrative Agent) of any such Regulatory Costs.  Administrative Agent shall give Borrower notice of any Taxes and Regulatory Costs as soon as practicable after their occurrence, but Borrower shall be liable for any Taxes and Regulatory Costs regardless of whether or when notice is so given.  A certificate as to the amount of such Taxes and Regulatory Costs, submitted to Borrower by Administrative Agent, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.
(i)    Fixed Rate Price Adjustment. Borrower acknowledges that prepayment or acceleration of a Fixed Rate Portion during a Fixed Rate Period shall result in Lenders’ incurring additional costs, expenses and/or liabilities and that it is extremely difficult and impractical to ascertain the extent of such costs, expenses and/or liabilities.  Therefore, on the date a Fixed Rate Portion is prepaid or the date all sums payable hereunder become due and payable, by acceleration or otherwise (“Price Adjustment Date”), Borrower will pay Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender (in addition to all other sums then owing to Lenders) an amount (“Fixed Rate Price Adjustment”) equal to the then present value of (i) the amount of interest that would have accrued on the Fixed Rate Portion for the remainder of the Fixed Rate Period at the Fixed Rate set on the Fixed Rate Commencement Date, less (ii) the amount of interest that would accrue on the same Fixed Rate Portion for a period equal to the remainder of such Fixed Rate Period, as if the Fixed Rate were set on the Price Adjustment Date.  The present value shall be calculated by Administrative Agent, for the benefit of Lenders, using as a discount rate the LIBO Rate quoted on the Price Adjustment Date.
By initialing this provision where indicated below, Borrower confirms that Lenders’ agreement to make the Loan at the interest rates and on the other terms set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents constitutes adequate and valuable consideration, given individual weight by Borrower, for this agreement:

Borrower understands, agrees and acknowledges the following:  (a) Lenders have no obligation to purchase, sell and/or match funds in connection with the use of a LIBO Rate as a basis for calculating an Effective Rate or Fixed Rate Price Adjustment; (b) a LIBO Rate is used merely as a reference in determining an Effective Rate and Fixed Rate Price Adjustment; and (c) Borrower has accepted a LIBO Rate as a reasonable and fair basis for calculating an Effective Rate and a Fixed Rate Price Adjustment.  Borrower further agrees to pay the Fixed Rate Price Adjustment, Taxes and Regulatory Costs, if any, whether or not any Lender elects to purchase, sell and/or match funds.

All payments of principal, interest and fees hereunder payable to Administrative Agent or the Lenders shall be made without condition or reservation of right and free of set-off or counterclaim, in Dollars and by wire transfer (pursuant to Administrative Agent’s written wire transfer instructions) of immediately available funds, to Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender as applicable, not later than 11:00 A.M. (Central) on the date due; and funds received by Administrative Agent after that time and date shall be deemed to have been paid on the next succeeding Business Day.

(i)    Borrower shall purchase the LIBOR Cap as required by Section 8.28 with a term expiring no earlier than the First Extended Maturity Date, Second Extended Maturity Date, the Third Extended Maturity Date or the Fourth Extended Maturity Date, as applicable.

37




Loan No. 1005062


(b)    In connection with the Loan, Operating Lessee has established, and shall continue to maintain, with Administrative Agent the FF&E Reserve Account for deposit and application as described in this subsection.  On the Effective Date, the balance in the FF&E Reserve Account is $0.00.   In the event Manager fails to make any deposit required by Section 4.3(a) above, Administrative Agent may, each month thereafter during the term of the Loan, withdraw from the Collection Account, prior to any disbursement to or on behalf of Borrower or Operating Lessee, an amount (each, an “FF&E Reserve Deposit”) equal to any deficiency in amounts deposited by Manager (such that, at the end of the year, the aggregate amount on deposit will be, in Administrative Agent’s estimate, sufficient to aggregate the total FF&E reserve amounts required under the Management Agreement and hereunder for such year) and deposit such amount into the FF&E Reserve Account.  
(c)    Provided no Default is continuing, within five (5) Business Days following submission in writing of a request therefor by Borrower, Administrative Agent shall provide to Borrower from the FF&E Reserve Account, funds to be used by Borrower and Operating Lessee solely for the payment of expenditures for FF&E and other capital items in accordance with the Capital Budget.  
(d)    Following a Default, Administrative Agent may apply all or any part of amounts escrowed pursuant to Section 4.3(b) (including any interest earned on such amounts) to any obligations under the Loan Documents and/or to cure such Default, in which event Borrower shall be required to restore all amounts so applied, as well as to cure any other aspect of such Default not cured by such application.  
(e)    Upon assignment of the Loan, Administrative Agent shall have the right to assign all amounts collected and in its possession in the FF&E Reserve Account to its assignee whereupon Administrative Agent shall be released from all liability with respect thereto.  
(f)    The Administrative Agent shall have the right (to be exercised from time to time at its election) to audit Borrower’s and Operating Lessee’s books and records in order to determine whether or not the funds withdrawn or disbursed from the FF&E Reserve Account have been spent only for the purpose for which they were withdrawn or disbursed.  Borrower and Operating Lessee shall cooperate with Administrative Agent in connection with any such audit.
(g)    Promptly upon full repayment of the obligations under the Loan Documents (other than full repayment of the obligations under the Loan Documents as a consequence of a foreclosure or conveyance in lieu of foreclosure of the liens and security interests securing the obligations under the Loan Documents), the balance of all amounts collected and in Lender’s possession and not applied to the payment of expenditures for FF&E as set forth in this Section 4.3 shall be paid to Borrower and no other party shall have any right or claim thereto.

On the Effective Date, the balance in the Insurance and Tax Reserve Account is $0.00.

(D)    to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit K-2 or Exhibit K-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit K-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

56




Loan No. 1005062


(E)    any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Borrower, Operating Lessee and Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower, Operating Lessee or Administrative Agent), executed originals of any other form prescribed by Applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by Applicable Law to permit Borrower, Operating Lessee or Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and
(C)    If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to Borrower, Operating Lessee and Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by Applicable Law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Borrower, Operating Lessee or Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by Applicable Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Borrower, Operating Lessee or Administrative Agent as may be necessary for Borrower, Operating Lessee and Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.

Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify Borrower, Operating Lessee and Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.
 (h)  Treatment of Certain Refunds.  If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 8.15 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 8.15), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund).  Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (i) (plus any penalties, 

57




Loan No. 1005062


interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (i), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (i) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid.  This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.
(i)  Survival.

8.18    Maintenance DSCR Hurdle.  
(a)    DSCR shall be tested as of each DSCR Test Date (and Borrower shall deliver the DSCR Certificate as and when required pursuant to Section 9.2).  
(b)    In the event (i) of a Maintenance DSCR Failure (ii) Borrower fails to deliver any DSCR Certificate as and when required pursuant to Section 9.2, then commencing on the 5th day of the month immediately following the DSCR Certificate Date on which such Maintenance DSCR Failure was reported (or on which Borrower failed to deliver such DSCR Certificate) (the “Cash Flow Sweep Commencement Date”), and continuing on the 5th day of each month thereafter until the occurrence of a Cash Flow Sweep Termination Event (as defined below), all Excess Cash Flow on deposit in the Collection Account shall be swept into the DSCR Reserve Account (the “Cash Flow Sweep”).  Upon the occurrence of a Default, Administrative Agent may, at Administrative Agent’s election from time to time, apply any funds on deposit in the DSCR Reserve Account to pay any amounts due and payable under the Loan Documents or to pay down the principal balance of the Loan.  Provided no Default is continuing, upon a Cash Flow Sweep Distribution Event, all funds on deposit in the DSCR Reserve Account shall be disbursed to the Distribution Account.  As used in this Section, (i) “Cash Flow Sweep Termination Event” means, (A) in the event of a Maintenance DSCR Failure, as of any date, the Property has achieved a DSCR of 1.45:1.00 for 

58

Loan No. 1005062


8.19, nothing contained herein or therein shall be deemed to restrict or otherwise interfere with (i) a Permitted Revolver Loan Transfer or (ii) the ability of the holders of direct or indirect legal, Beneficial or equitable interests in the Guarantor to Transfer such interests, whether in connection with an initial public offering of shares in Guarantor or the Persons owning direct or indirect equity interests therein or otherwise (but the provisions of Section 10.3 shall apply in the event of any Transfer of direct or indirect interests in Guarantor, whether pursuant to (i) or (ii) or otherwise).
(c)    Certificates of Ownership.  In order to verify the requirements of this Section 8.30 below, Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent, at any time and from time to time, not more than five (5) Business Days after Administrative Agent’s written request therefor, a certificate, in form acceptable to Administrative Agent, signed and dated by Borrower, listing the names of all Persons holding direct or indirect legal or beneficial interests in the Property or any Loan Party and the type and amount of each such interest; provided, however, that such requirement shall not apply to holders of units in Guarantor to the extent that such units consist, in the aggregate, of less than 2% of the entire equity interest in such entity and Borrower and Operating Lessee continue to be Controlled by Guarantor as provided in Section 8.19.  
8.31    Operating Lease.  
(a)    Each of Borrower and Operating Lessee hereby agree that the Operating Lease and all right, title and interest of Operating Lessee thereunder are and shall be subject and subordinate to the lien of the Security Instrument and the Loan, including, without limitation, any and all fees and reimbursable expenses and other sums payable to Borrower under the Operating Lease.  
(b)    Upon (a) the occurrence of a Default or (b) a foreclosure of the Security Instrument or the acceptance by Lender of a deed in lieu of foreclosure, notwithstanding the rights of Lender (or its successor) under subsection (c) below, Lender (or its successor) may in its sole and absolute discretion, elect to terminate the Operating Lease, and Operating Lessee agrees that such termination may be made without payment of any termination fees, liquidated damages or other fees and charges under the Operating Lease.  Upon any such termination of the Operating Lease by Lender (or its successor), Operating Lessee shall promptly remit to Lender (or its successor) an accounting of, and all sums then held in, any accounts maintained by Operating Lessee under the Operating Lease.  Operating Lessee hereby acknowledges that none of such sums shall be delivered to Borrower upon any such termination of the Operating Lease by Lender (or its successor).  Upon any such termination, Operating Lessee shall afford to Lender (or its successor) all rights and benefits provided to Operating Lessee under the Operating Lease, including, without limitation, cooperating with and assisting Lender (or its successor) to effect a smooth transition of operational control, and assigning to Lender (or its successor) all operating licenses and permits for the Property then issued in Operating Lessee’s name and which may be assigned or transferred.  If such assignment of licenses and permits is not permitted under applicable law, Operating Lessee shall cooperate with, and provide assistance to, Lender (or its successor) in its efforts to obtain food, liquor and other licenses and permits for the normal use and operation of the Property.  Upon the written request of Lender (or its successor), Operating Lessee shall 

62




Loan No. 1005062


periodically execute and deliver a statement, in a form reasonably satisfactory to Lender (or its successor), reaffirming Operating Lessee’s obligation to attorn as set forth in this Section 8.31.
(c)    To the extent Operating Lessee’s interest in the Operating Lease is not merged with title to the Property at foreclosure or otherwise, Operating Lessee agrees that, upon a foreclosure of the Security Instrument or the acceptance by Lender of a deed in lieu of foreclosure, provided that the Operating Lease has not expired or otherwise been earlier terminated in accordance with its terms for reasons other than such foreclosure, Operating Lessee shall attorn to Lender (or its successor), as the case may be, and shall remain bound by all of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Operating Lease, for the balance of the remaining term thereof (and any renewals thereof which may be effected in accordance with the Operating Lease) with the same force and effect as if Lender (or its successor) were the landlord under the Operating Lease and without the payment by Lender (or its successor) of any fees arising from such succession to the interests of Borrower.  Such attornment shall be effective and self-operative as an agreement between Operating Lessee and Lender (or its successor) without the execution of any further instruments on the part of any party; provided, however, that at Lender’s (or its successor’s) request, Operating Lessee shall execute an instrument confirming such attornment. 
(d)    So long as the Operating Lease remains fully subordinate to the Lien of the Security Instrument, Borrower and Operating Lessee shall be permitted to amend the Operating Lease to (i) extend the term of the Operating Lease, (ii) increase the rent payable thereunder or (iii) reduce the rent payable thereunder.
8.32    Distributions.  Neither Borrower nor Operating Lessee shall distribute any funds of Borrower or Operating Lessee to any member of Borrower or Operating Lessee at any time during the continuance of a Default.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Loan Documents or in any other document governing the formation, management or operation of Borrower or Operating Lessee, neither Borrower nor Operating Lessee shall (i) guarantee any obligation of any Person, including any Affiliate, or become obligated for the debts of any other Person or hold out its credit as being available to pay the obligations of any other Person; (ii) engage, directly or indirectly, in any business other than as required or permitted to be performed under this Section; (iii) incur, create or assume any Indebtedness which is not otherwise expressly permitted under the Loan Documents; (iv) make or permit to remain outstanding any loan or advance to, or own or acquire any stock or securities of, any Person, except (A) as otherwise permitted under this Agreement, and (B) that Borrower and Operating Lessee may invest in those investments permitted under the Loan Documents; (v) to the fullest extent permitted by law, engage in any dissolution, liquidation, consolidation, merger, sale or other transfer of any of its assets outside the ordinary course of Borrower’s or Operating Lessee’s business, as applicable; (vi) buy or hold evidence of indebtedness issued by any other Person (other than cash or investment-grade securities); (vii) form, acquire or hold any subsidiary (whether corporate, partnership, limited liability company or other) or own any equity interest in any other entity; (vii) own any asset or property other than the Property and incidental personal property necessary for the ownership or operation of the Property; or (viii) take any material action without the unanimous written approval of all members of Borrower or Operating Lessee, as applicable.

Failure of any Borrower or Operating Lessee to comply with any of the covenants contained in this Section or any other covenants contained in this Agreement shall not affect the status of any Borrower, Operating Lessee or Employer Company as a separate legal entity.
(d)    SPE Covenants in Borrower and Operating Lessee Organizational Documents.

In either case, the Default with respect to which any such payment has been made by Administrative Agent shall not be deemed cured until such repayment has been made by Borrower to Administrative Agent.  
10.6    Repayment of Funds Advanced.  Any funds expended by Administrative Agent or any Lender in the exercise of its rights or remedies under this Agreement and/or the other Loan Documents shall be payable to Administrative Agent upon demand, together with interest at the rate applicable to the principal balance of the Loan from the date the funds were expended.  
10.7    Rights Cumulative, No Waiver.  All Administrative Agent’s and Lenders’ rights and remedies provided in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with those granted by law or at equity, are cumulative and may be exercised by Administrative Agent or Lenders at any time.  Administrative Agent’s or any Lender’s exercise of any right or remedy shall not constitute a cure of any Default unless all sums then due and payable to Lenders under the Loan Documents are repaid and Borrower has cured all other Defaults.  No waiver shall be implied from any failure of Administrative Agent or any Lender to take, or any delay by Administrative Agent or any Lender in taking, action concerning any Default or failure of condition under the Loan Documents, or from any previous waiver of any similar or unrelated Default or failure of condition.  Any waiver or approval under any of the Loan Documents must be in writing and shall be limited to its specific terms.
ARTICLE 11     
THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT; INTERCREDITOR PROVISIONS
11.1    Appointment and Authorization.  
(a)    Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes Administrative Agent to take such action as contractual representative on such Lender’s behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and Other Related Documents as are specifically delegated to Administrative Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.  Not in limitation of the foregoing, each Lender authorizes and directs Administrative Agent to enter into the Loan Documents and Other Related Documents for the benefit of Lenders.  
(b)    Each Lender hereby agrees that, except as otherwise set forth herein, any action taken by the Requisite Lenders in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, the Loan 

72




Loan No. 1005062


Documents or the Other Related Documents, and the exercise by the Requisite Lenders of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all of Lenders.  
(c)    Nothing herein shall be construed to deem Administrative Agent a trustee or fiduciary for any Lender or to impose on Administrative Agent duties or obligations other than those expressly provided for herein.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the use of the terms “Administrative Agent”, “Agent”, “agent” and similar terms in the Loan Documents or Other Related Documents with reference to Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law.  Instead, use of such terms is merely a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.  
(d)    The Administrative Agent shall deliver to each Lender, promptly upon receipt thereof by Administrative Agent, copies of each of the financial statements, certificates, notices and other documents delivered to Administrative Agent pursuant to Article 9.  The Administrative Agent will also furnish to any Lender, upon the request of such Lender, a copy (or, where appropriate, an original) of any document, instrument, agreement, certificate or notice furnished to Administrative Agent by Borrower, any Loan Party or any other Affiliate of Borrower, pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document not already delivered to such Lender pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any such other Loan Document.  
(e)    As to any matters not expressly provided for by the Loan Documents and Other Related Documents (including, without limitation, enforcement or collection of any of Borrower’s obligations hereunder), Administrative Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Requisite Lenders (or all Lenders if explicitly required under any other provision of this Agreement), and such instructions shall be binding upon all Lenders and all holders of any of the obligations of Borrower; provided, however, that, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action which exposes Administrative Agent to personal liability or which is contrary to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or Requirements of Law.  Not in limitation of the foregoing, Administrative Agent may exercise any right or remedy it or Lenders may have under any Loan Document upon the occurrence of a Potential Default or Default unless the Requisite Lenders have directed Administrative Agent otherwise.  Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against Administrative Agent as a result of Administrative Agent acting or refraining from acting under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, or the Other Related Documents in accordance with the instructions of the Requisite Lenders, or where applicable, all Lenders.
11.2    Wells Fargo as Lender.  
Wells Fargo, as a Lender, shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and any other Loan Document as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not Administrative Agent; and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include Wells Fargo in each case in its individual capacity.  Wells Fargo and its affiliates 

73




Loan No. 1005062


may each accept deposits from, maintain deposits or credit balances for, invest in, lend money to, act as trustee under indentures of, serve as financial advisor to, and generally engage in any kind of business with Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other affiliate thereof as if it were any other bank and without any duty to account therefor to the other Lenders.  Further, Administrative Agent and any affiliate may accept fees and other consideration from Borrower for services in connection with this Agreement and otherwise without having to account for the same to the other Lenders.  The Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, Wells Fargo or its affiliates may receive information regarding Borrower, an Other Loan Party, other subsidiaries and other Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such Person) and acknowledge that Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them.
11.3    Distribution and Apportionment of Payments.  Subject to Section 11.5, payments actually received by Administrative Agent for the account of Lenders shall be paid to them promptly after receipt thereof by Administrative Agent, but in any event within two (2) Business Days, provided that Administrative Agent shall pay to Lenders interest thereon, at the lesser of (i) the Federal Funds Rate and (ii) the rate of interest applicable to the Loan, from the Business Day following receipt of such funds by Administrative Agent until such funds are paid in immediately available funds to Lenders.  All payments of principal, interest, and other payments under the Loan Documents or Other Related Documents shall be allocated among such Lenders as are entitled thereto, in proportion to their respective Pro Rata Shares in the Loan or otherwise as provided herein or as separately agreed by Administrative Agent and any Lender.  Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute, but in any event within two (2) Business Days, to each Lender at its primary address set forth on the appropriate signature page hereof or on the Assignment and Assumption Agreement, or at such other address as a Lender may request in writing, such funds as it may be entitled to receive, provided that Administrative Agent shall in any event not be bound to inquire into or determine the validity, scope or priority of any interest or entitlement of any Lender and may suspend all payments and seek appropriate relief (including, without limitation, instructions from Requisite Lenders or all Lenders, as applicable, or an action in the nature of interpleader) in the event of any doubt or dispute as to any apportionment or distribution contemplated hereby.  The order of priority herein is set forth solely to determine the rights and priorities of Lenders as among themselves and may at any time or from time to time be changed by Lenders as they may elect, in writing in accordance with this Agreement, without necessity of notice to or consent of or approval by Borrower or any other Person.  All payments or other sums received by Administrative Agent for the account of Lenders shall not constitute property or assets of Administrative Agent and shall be held by Administrative Agent, solely in its capacity as agent for itself and the other Lenders, subject to the Loan Documents and the Other Related Documents.
11.4    Default Lenders. 
If for any reason any Lender shall become a Defaulting Lender, then, in addition to the rights and remedies that may be available to Administrative Agent or the Borrower under this Agreement or applicable law, such Defaulting Lender’s right to participate in the administration of the Loan, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including without limitation, any right to vote in 

74




Loan No. 1005062


respect of, to consent to or to direct any action or inaction of Administrative Agent or to be taken into account in the calculation of Requisite Lenders, shall be suspended during the pendency of such failure or refusal.  If for any reason a Lender fails to make timely payment to the Administrative Agent of any amount required to be paid to the Administrative Agent hereunder (without giving effect to any notice or cure periods), in addition to other rights and remedies which the Administrative Agent or the Borrower may have under the immediately preceding provisions or otherwise, Administrative Agent shall be entitled (i) to collect interest from such Defaulting Lender on such delinquent payment for the period from the date on which the payment was due until the date on which the payment is made at the Federal Funds Rate, (ii) to withhold or setoff and to apply in satisfaction of the defaulted payment and any related interest, any amounts otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (iii) to bring an action or suit against such Defaulting Lender in a court of competent jurisdiction to recover the defaulted amount and any related interest.  Any amounts received by Administrative Agent in respect of a Defaulting Lender’s Portion shall not be paid to such Defaulting Lender and shall be held uninvested by Administrative Agent and paid to such Defaulting Lender upon the Defaulting Lender’s curing of its default.  The provisions of this section shall apply and be effective regardless of whether a Default occurs, and notwithstanding (a) any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, or (b) any instruction of Borrower as to its desired application of payments.  In addition, the Defaulting Lender shall indemnify, defend and hold Administrative Agent and each of the other Lenders harmless from and against any and all liabilities and costs, plus interest thereon at the Default Rate, which they may sustain or incur by reason of or as a direct consequence of the Defaulting Lender’s failure or refusal to perform its obligations under this Agreement.
11.5    Pro Rata Treatment.  
Except to the extent otherwise provided herein, each payment or prepayment of principal of the Loan by Borrower shall be made for the account of Lenders pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid principal amounts of the Loan held by them, provided that if immediately prior to giving effect to any such payment in respect of the Loan the outstanding principal amount of the Loan shall not be held by Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Portions in effect at the time the Loan was made, then such payment shall be applied to the Loan in such manner as shall result, as nearly as is practicable, in the outstanding principal amount of the Loan being held by Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Portions; and (c) each payment of interest on the Loan by Borrower shall be made for the account  of Lenders pro rata in accordance with the amounts of interest on the Loan then due and payable to the respective Lenders.
11.6    Sharing of Payments, Etc.  
Lenders agree among themselves that (i) with respect to all amounts received by them which are applicable to the payment of the obligations of Borrower or Guarantor under the Loan, equitable adjustment will be made so that, in effect, all such amounts will be shared among them ratably in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares in the Loan, whether received by voluntary payment, by counterclaim or cross action or by the enforcement of any or all of such obligations, (ii) if any of them shall by voluntary payment or by the exercise of any right of counterclaim or otherwise, receive payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of such obligations held by it which is greater 

75




Loan No. 1005062


than its Pro Rata Share of the payments on account of such obligations, the one receiving such excess payment shall purchase, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation (which it shall be deemed to have done simultaneously upon the receipt of such payment) in such obligations owed to the others so that all such recoveries with respect to such obligations shall be applied ratably in accordance with such Pro Rata Shares; provided, that if all or part of such excess payment received by the purchasing party is thereafter recovered from it, those purchases shall be rescinded and the purchase prices paid for such participations shall be returned to that party to the extent necessary to adjust for such recovery, but without interest except to the extent the purchasing party is required to pay interest in connection with such recovery.  Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant to this Section 11.6 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of Borrower in the amount of such participation.
11.7    Collateral Matters; Protective Advances.  
(a)    Each Lender hereby authorizes Administrative Agent, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from any Lender, from time to time prior to a Default, to take any action with respect to any Collateral, Loan Documents or Other Related Documents which may be necessary to perfect and maintain perfected the Liens upon the Collateral granted pursuant to any of the Loan Documents or Other Related Documents.
(b)    The Lenders hereby authorize Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to release any Lien granted to or held by Administrative Agent upon any Collateral (i) upon indefeasible payment and satisfaction in full of all of obligations of Borrower hereunder; (ii) as expressly permitted by, but only in accordance with, the terms of the applicable Loan Document; and (iii) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Requisite Lenders (or such greater number of Lenders as this Agreement or any other Loan Document may expressly provide).  Upon request by Administrative Agent at any time, Lenders will confirm in writing Administrative Agent’s authority to release particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section.
(c)    Upon any sale and transfer of Collateral which is expressly permitted pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and upon at least five (5) Business Days’ prior written request by Borrower, Administrative Agent shall (and is hereby irrevocably authorized by Lenders to) execute such documents as may be necessary to evidence the release of the Liens granted to Administrative Agent for the benefit of Lenders herein or pursuant hereto upon the Collateral that was sold or transferred; provided, however, that (i) Administrative Agent shall not be required to execute any such document on terms which, in Administrative Agent’s opinion, would expose Administrative Agent to liability or create any obligation or entail any consequence other than the release of such Liens without recourse or warranty and (ii) such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect or impair the obligations of Borrower or any Liens upon (or obligations of Borrower or any other Loan Party in respect of) all interests retained by Borrower or any other Loan Party, including (without limitation) the proceeds of such sale or transfer, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral.  In the event of any sale or transfer of Collateral, or any foreclosure with respect to any of the Collateral, Administrative Agent shall be authorized to deduct all of the expenses reasonably incurred by Administrative Agent from the proceeds of any such sale, transfer or foreclosure.

76




Loan No. 1005062


(d)    The Administrative Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to Lenders or to any other Person to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by Borrower or any other Loan Party or is cared for, protected or insured or that the Liens granted to Administrative Agent herein or pursuant hereto have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise or to continue exercising at all or in any manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to Administrative Agent in this Section or in any of the Loan Documents or Other Related Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission or event related thereto, Administrative Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its sole discretion, given Administrative Agent’s own interest in the Collateral as one of the Lenders and that Administrative Agent shall have no duty or liability whatsoever to Lenders, except to the extent resulting from its gross negligence or willful misconduct.
(e)    The Administrative Agent may make, and shall be reimbursed by Lenders (in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares) to the extent not reimbursed by Borrower for, Protective Advances during any one calendar year with respect to any Property that is Collateral up to the sum of (i) amounts expended to pay real estate taxes, assessments and governmental charges or levies imposed upon such Property; (ii) amounts expended to pay insurance premiums for policies of insurance related to such Property; and (iii) $500,000.00.  Protective Advances in excess of said sum during any calendar year for any Property that is Collateral shall require the consent of the Requisite Lenders.  The Borrower agrees to pay on demand all Protective Advances.
(f)    Each Lender agrees that it will not take any action, nor institute any actions or proceedings, against Borrower or any other obligor hereunder under the Loan Documents or the Other Related Documents with respect to exercising claims against or rights in the Collateral without the written consent of Requisite Lenders.
11.8    Post-Foreclosure Plans.  If all or any portion of the Collateral is acquired by Administrative Agent as a result of a foreclosure or the acceptance of a deed or assignment in lieu of foreclosure, or is retained in satisfaction of all or any part of the obligations of Borrower hereunder, the title to any such Collateral, or any portion thereof, shall be held in the name of Administrative Agent or a nominee or subsidiary of Administrative Agent, as agent, for the ratable benefit of all Lenders.  The Administrative Agent shall prepare a recommended course of action for such Collateral (a “Post-Foreclosure Plan”), which shall be subject to the approval of the Requisite Lenders.  In accordance with the approved Post-Foreclosure Plan, Administrative Agent shall manage, operate, repair, administer, complete, construct, restore or otherwise deal with the Collateral acquired, and shall administer all transactions relating thereto, including, without limitation, employing a management agent, leasing agent and other agents, contractors and employees, including agents for the sale of such Collateral, and the collecting of rents and other sums from such Collateral and paying the expenses of such Collateral.  Actions taken by Administrative Agent with respect to the Collateral, which are not specifically provided for in the approved Post-Foreclosure Plan or reasonably incidental thereto, shall require the written consent of the Requisite Lenders by way of supplement to such Post-Foreclosure Plan.  Upon demand therefor from time to time, each Lender will contribute its share (based on its Pro Rata Share) of all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Administrative Agent pursuant to the approved Post-Foreclosure Plan in connection with the construction, operation, management, maintenance, 

77




Loan No. 1005062


leasing and sale of such Collateral.  In addition, Administrative Agent shall render or cause to be rendered to each Lender, on a monthly basis, an income and expense statement for such Collateral, and each Lender shall promptly contribute its Pro Rata Share of any operating loss for such Collateral, and such other expenses and operating reserves as Administrative Agent shall deem reasonably necessary pursuant to and in accordance with the approved Post-Foreclosure Plan.  To the extent there is net operating income from such Collateral, Administrative Agent shall, in accordance with the approved Post-Foreclosure Plan, determine the amount and timing of distributions to Lenders.  All such distributions shall be made to Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares.  The Lenders acknowledge and agree that if title to any Collateral is obtained by Administrative Agent or its nominee, such Collateral will not be held as a permanent investment but will be liquidated as soon as practicable.  The Administrative Agent shall undertake to sell such Collateral, at such price and upon such terms and conditions as the Requisite Lenders reasonably shall determine to be most advantageous to Lenders.  Any purchase money mortgage or deed of trust taken in connection with the disposition of such Collateral in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence shall name Administrative Agent, as agent for Lenders, as the beneficiary or mortgagee.  In such case, Administrative Agent and Lenders shall enter into an agreement with respect to such purchase money mortgage or deed of trust defining the rights of Lenders in the same Pro Rata Shares as provided hereunder, which agreement shall be in all material respects similar to this Article insofar as the same is appropriate or applicable.
11.9    Approvals of Lenders.  All communications from Administrative Agent to any Lender requesting such Lender’s determination, consent, approval or disapproval (a) shall be given in the form of a written notice to such Lender, (b) shall be accompanied by a description of the matter or issue as to which such determination, approval, consent or disapproval is requested, or shall advise such Lender where information, if any, regarding such matter or issue may be inspected, or shall otherwise describe the matter or issue to be resolved, (c) shall include, if reasonably requested by such Lender and to the extent not previously provided to such Lender, written materials and a summary of all oral information provided to Administrative Agent by Borrower in respect of the matter or issue to be resolved, and (d) shall include Administrative Agent’s recommended course of action or determination in respect thereof.  Unless a Lender shall give written notice to Administrative Agent that it specifically objects to the recommendation or determination of Administrative Agent (together with a reasonable written explanation of the reasons behind such objection) within ten (10) Business Days (or such lesser or greater period as may be specifically required under the express terms of the Loan Documents or Other Related Documents) of receipt of such communication, such Lender shall be deemed to have conclusively approved of or consented to such recommendation or determination.
11.10    Notice of Defaults.  The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of a Default or Potential Default unless Administrative Agent has received notice from a Lender or Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing with reasonable specificity such Default or Potential Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”.  If any Lender (excluding Lender which is also serving as Administrative Agent) becomes aware of any Default or Potential Default, it shall promptly send to Administrative Agent such a “notice of default”.  Further, if Administrative Agent receives such a “notice of default,” Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to Lenders.

78




Loan No. 1005062


11.11    Administrative Agent’s Reliance, Etc.  Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, any other Loan Documents or the Other Related Documents, neither Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents, employees or counsel shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with its duties expressly set forth herein or therein.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Administrative Agent: may consult with legal counsel (including its own counsel or counsel for Borrower or any other Loan Party), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts.  Neither Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents, employees or counsel: (a) makes any warranty or representation to any Lender or any other Person and shall be responsible to any Lender or any other Person for any statement, warranty or representation made or deemed made by Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Person in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document; (b) shall have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the satisfaction of any conditions precedent under this Agreement or any Loan Document on the part of Borrower or other Persons or inspect the property, books or records of Borrower or any other Person; (c) shall be responsible to any Lender for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, any other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto or any Collateral covered thereby or the perfection or priority of any Lien in favor of Administrative Agent on behalf of Lenders in any such Collateral; (d) shall have any liability in respect of any recitals, statements, certifications, representations or warranties contained in any of the Loan Documents or Other Related Documents or any other document, instrument, agreement, certificate or statement delivered in connection therewith; and (e) shall incur any liability under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by telephone, telecopy or electronic mail) believed by it to be genuine and signed, sent or given by the proper party or parties.  The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under the Loan Documents or Other Related Documents by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct.
11.12    Indemnification of Administrative Agent.  Regardless of whether the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and Other Related Documents are consummated, each Lender agrees to indemnify Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by Borrower and without limiting the obligation of Borrower to do so) pro rata in accordance with such Lender’s respective Pro Rata Share, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent but not as a “Lender”) in any way relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents or Other Related Documents, any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents and Other Related Documents (collectively, “Indemnifiable Amounts”); provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such Indemnifiable 

79




Loan No. 1005062


Amounts to the extent resulting from Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment provided, however, that no action taken in accordance with the directions of the Requisite Lenders shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by Borrower and without limiting the obligation of Borrower to do so) promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any out-of-pocket expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of the counsel to Administrative Agent) incurred by Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution, administration, or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings, or otherwise) of, or legal advice with respect to the rights or responsibilities of the parties under, the Loan Documents and Other Related Documents, any suit or action brought by Administrative Agent to enforce the terms of the Loan Documents and Other Related Documents and/or collect any obligation of Borrower hereunder, any “lender liability” suit or claim brought against Administrative Agent and/or Lenders, and any claim or suit brought against Administrative Agent and/or Lenders arising under any Hazardous Materials Laws.  Such out-of-pocket expenses (including counsel fees) shall be advanced by Lenders on the request of Administrative Agent notwithstanding any claim or assertion that Administrative Agent is not entitled to indemnification hereunder upon receipt of an undertaking by Administrative Agent that Administrative Agent will reimburse Lenders if it is actually and finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that Administrative Agent is not so entitled to indemnification.  The agreements in this Section shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder or under the other Loan Documents or Other Related Documents and the termination of this Agreement.  If Borrower shall reimburse Administrative Agent for any Indemnifiable Amount following payment by any Lender to Administrative Agent in respect of such Indemnifiable Amount pursuant to this Section, Administrative Agent shall share such reimbursement on a ratable basis with each Lender making any such payment.
11.13    Lender Credit Decision, Etc.  Each Lender expressly acknowledges and agrees that neither Administrative Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, counsel, attorneys-in-fact or other affiliates has made any representations or warranties to such Lender and that no act by Administrative Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of Borrower, any other Loan Party or Affiliate, shall be deemed to constitute any such representation or warranty by Administrative Agent to any Lender.  Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon Administrative Agent, any other Lender or counsel to Administrative Agent, or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents or counsel, and based on the financial statements of Borrower, the other Loan Parties or Affiliates, and inquiries of such Persons, its independent due diligence of the business and affairs of Borrower, the other Loan Parties and other Persons, its review of the Loan Documents and the Other Related Documents, the legal opinions required to be delivered to it hereunder, the advice of its own counsel and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit and legal analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.  Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon Administrative Agent, any other Lender or counsel to Administrative Agent or any of their respective officers, directors, employees and agents, and based on such review, advice, 

80




Loan No. 1005062


documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under the Loan Documents or Other Related Documents.  The Administrative Agent shall not be required to keep itself informed as to the performance or observance by Borrower or any other Loan Party of the Loan Documents or Other Related Documents or any other document referred to or provided for therein or to inspect the properties or books of, or make any other investigation of, Borrower, any other Loan Party.  Except for notices, reports and other documents and information expressly required to be furnished to Lenders by Administrative Agent under this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or Other Related Documents, Administrative Agent shall have no duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Affiliate thereof which may come into possession of Administrative Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or other Affiliates.  Each Lender acknowledges that Administrative Agent’s legal counsel in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is only acting as counsel to Administrative Agent and is not acting as counsel to such Lender.
11.14    Successor Administrative Agent.  Administrative Agent may resign at any time as Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents and Other Related Documents by giving written notice thereof to Lenders and Borrower.  Upon any such resignation, the Requisite Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent which appointment shall, provided no Default or Potential Default exists, be subject to Borrower’s approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed (except that Borrower shall, in all events, be deemed to have approved each Lender and any of its Affiliates as a successor Administrative Agent).  If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, and shall have accepted such appointment, within thirty (30) days after the current Administrative Agent’s giving of notice of resignation, then the current Administrative Agent may, on behalf of Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a Lender, if any Lender shall be willing to serve, and otherwise shall be an Eligible Assignee.  Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the current Administrative Agent, and the current Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents and the Other Related Documents.  After any Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article XI shall continue to inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents and the Other Related Documents.  Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Administrative Agent may assign its rights and duties under the Loan Documents and the Other Related Documents to any of its Affiliates by giving Borrower and each Lender prior written notice.
11.15    No Set-Offs.  Each Lender hereby acknowledges that the exercise by any Lender of offset, set-off, banker’s lien or similar rights against any deposit account or other property or asset of Borrower, whether or not located in California, could result under certain laws in significant impairment of the ability of all Lenders to recover any further amounts in respect of the Loan.  

81




Loan No. 1005062


Therefore, each Lender agrees not to charge or offset any amount owed to it by Borrower against any of the accounts, property or assets of Borrower or any of its affiliates held by such Lender without the prior written approval of Administrative Agent and Requisite Lenders.

Any Default occurring hereunder shall continue to exist until such time as such Default is waived in writing by Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms of this Section, notwithstanding any attempted cure or other action by Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Person subsequent to the occurrence of such Default.  Except as otherwise explicitly provided for herein or in any other Loan Document, no notice to or demand upon Borrower shall entitle Borrower to other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.
12.12    Successors and Assigns.
(a)    Generally.  The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns, except that Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights under this Agreement without the prior written consent of all Lenders (and any such assignment or transfer to which all of Lenders have not consented shall be void).  
(b)    Participations.  Any Lender may at any time grant to an affiliate of such Lender, or one or more banks or other financial institutions (each a “Participant”) participating interests in its Portion or the obligations owing to such Lender hereunder.  No Participant shall have any rights or benefits under this Agreement or any other Loan Document.  In the event of any such grant by a Lender of a participating interest to a Participant, such Lender shall remain responsible for the performance of its obligations hereunder, and Borrower and Administrative Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.  Any agreement pursuant to which any Lender may grant such a participating interest shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right and responsibility to enforce the obligations of Borrower hereunder including, without limitation, the right to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided however, such Lender may agree with the Participant that it will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to (i) increase such Lender’s Portion, (ii) extend the date fixed for the payment of principal on the Loan or a portion thereof owing to such Lender, (iii) reduce the rate at which interest is payable thereon.

Lenders 

86




Loan No. 1005062


shall not participate any interest in the Loan to any natural person, Borrower or Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries.    
(c)    Assignments. 
(i)    Any Lender may, subject to subsection (ii) below, at any time assign to one or more Eligible Assignees (each an “Assignee”) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Note; provided, however, (i) any partial assignment shall be in an amount at least equal to $10,000,000.00 and after giving effect to such assignment the assigning Lender retains a Portion, or if the Portions have been terminated, holds a Note having an outstanding principal balance, of at least $10,000,000.00, and (ii) each such assignment shall be effected by means of an Assignment and Assumption Agreement.  Upon execution and delivery of such instrument and payment by such Assignee to such transferor Lender of an amount equal to the purchase price agreed between such transferor Lender and such Assignee, such Assignee shall be deemed to be a Lender party to this Agreement and shall have all the rights and obligations of a Lender with a Portion as set forth in such Assignment and Assumption Agreement, and the transferor Lender shall be released from its obligations hereunder to a corresponding extent, and no further consent or action by any party shall be required.  Upon the consummation of any assignment pursuant to this subsection (c), the transferor Lender, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall make appropriate arrangement so the new Notes are issued to the Assignee and such transferor Lender, as appropriate.  In connection with any such assignment, the transferor Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent an administrative fee for processing such assignment in the amount of $4,500.00.  Anything in this Section to the contrary notwithstanding, no Lender may assign or participate any interest in any Loan held by it hereunder to the Borrower, or any of its respective Affiliates or subsidiaries.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Lender may assign or participate any interest in the Loan to Borrower or an Affiliate or Subsidiary of Borrower.
(ii)    No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by this subsection and, in addition:
(A)    the consent of Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (x) a Default or Potential Default shall exist at the time of such assignment or (y) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; provided that Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days after having received notice thereof; and
(B)    the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for assignments in respect of a Portion if such assignment is to a Person that is not already a Lender with a Portion, an Affiliate of such a Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such a Lender.
(d)    Register.  The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Portions of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the 

87




Loan No. 1005062


terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”).  The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement.  The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.
(e)    Tax Withholding.  At least five (5) Business Days prior to the first day on which interest or fees are payable hereunder for the account of any Lender, each Lender that is not incorporated under the laws of the United States of America, or a state thereof, shall furnish Administrative Agent and Borrower with a properly completed executed copy of either Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI or Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN and either Internal Revenue Service Form W-8 or Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 and any additional form (or such other form) as is necessary to claim complete exemption from United States withholding taxes on all payments hereunder.  At all times each Lender shall own or beneficially own a Note, such Lender shall (i) promptly provide to Administrative Agent and Borrower a new Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI or Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN and Internal Revenue Service Form W-8 or Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 and any additional form (or such other form) (or any successor form or forms) upon the expiration or obsolescence of any previously delivered form and comparable statements in accordance with applicable United States laws and regulations and amendments duly executed and completed by such Lender, and (ii) comply at all times with all applicable United States laws and regulations, including all provisions of any applicable tax treaty, with regard to any withholding tax exemption claimed with respect to any payments on the Loan.  If any Lender cannot deliver such form, then Borrower may withhold from payments due under the Loan Documents such amounts as Borrower is able to determine from accurate information provided by such Lender are required by the Internal Revenue Code.
(f)    Federal Reserve Bank Assignments.  In addition to the assignments and participations permitted under the foregoing provisions of the Section, and without the need to comply with any of the formal or procedural requirements of this Section, any Lender may at any time and from time to time, pledge and assign all or any portion of its rights under all or any of the Loan Documents and Other Related Documents to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge of assignment shall release such Lender from its obligation thereunder. 
(g)    Information to Assignee, Etc.  A Lender may furnish any information concerning Borrower, any subsidiary or any other Loan Party in the possession of such Lender from time to time to Assignees and Participants (including prospective Assignees and Participants).  In connection with such negotiation, execution and delivery, Borrower authorizes Administrative Agent and Lenders to communicate all information and documentation related to the Loan (whether to Borrower or to any Participant, Assignee, legal counsel, appraiser or other necessary party) directly by e-mail, fax, or other electronic means used to transmit information.
(h)    USA Patriot Act Notice; Compliance.

88




Loan No. 1005062


identification information as shall be necessary for the Administrative Agent to comply with federal law.
12.13    Capital Adequacy.  If any Lender or any Participant in the Loan determines that compliance with any law or regulation or with any guideline or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law) affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Lender or such Participant, or any corporation controlling such Lender or such Participant, as a consequence of, or with reference to, such Lender’s or such Participant’s or such corporation’s Portion or its making or maintaining Loans below the rate which such Lender or such Participant or such corporation controlling such Lender or such Participant could have achieved but for such compliance (taking into account the policies of such Lender or such Participant or corporation with regard to capital), then the Borrower shall, from time to time, within thirty (30) calendar days after written demand by such Lender or such Participant, pay to such Lender or such Participant additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender or such Participant or such corporation controlling such Lender or such Participant to the extent that such Lender or such Participant determines such increase in capital is allocable to such Lender’s or such Participant’s obligations hereunder.  
12.14    Lender’s Agents.  Administrative Agent and/or any Lender may designate an agent or independent contractor to exercise any of such Person’s rights under this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents and Other Related Documents.

12.17    Severability.  If any provision or obligation under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or Other Related Documents shall be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that provision shall be deemed severed from the Loan Documents and the Other Related Documents and the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations shall remain in full force as though the invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provision had never been a part of the Loan Documents or Other Related Documents, provided, however, that if the rate of interest or any other amount payable under the Notes or this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the right of collectibility therefor, are declared to be or become invalid, illegal or unenforceable, Lenders’ obligations to make advances under the Loan Documents shall not be enforceable by Borrower.

“Receiving Bank” means the financial institution where a Receiving Party maintains its account.
“Receiving Party” means the ultimate recipient of funds pursuant to a Disbursement Request.
“Restricted Account” means an account at Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. associated with the Loan to which Borrower’s access is restricted.


Capitalized terms used in these Additional Terms and Conditions to Disbursement Instruction Agreement and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given to such terms in the body of the Agreement.


Disbursement Requests. Lender must receive Disbursement Requests in writing.  Verbal requests are not accepted.  Disbursement Requests will only be accepted from the applicable Authorized Representatives designated in the Disbursement Instruction Agreement. Disbursement Requests will be processed subject to satisfactory completion of Lender’s customer verification procedures. Lender is only responsible for making a good faith effort to execute each Disbursement Request and may use agents of its choice to execute Disbursement Requests.  Funds disbursed pursuant to a Disbursement Request may be transmitted directly to the Receiving Bank, or indirectly to the Receiving Bank through another bank, government agency, or other third party that Lender considers to be reasonable.  Lender will, in its sole discretion, determine the funds transfer system and the means by which each Disbursement will be made.  Lender may delay or refuse to accept a Disbursement Request if the Disbursement would: (i) violate the terms of this Agreement; (ii) require use of a bank unacceptable to Lender or prohibited by government authority; (iii) cause Lender to violate any Federal Reserve or other regulatory risk control program or guideline; or (iv) otherwise cause Lender to violate any applicable law or regulation.


Limitation of Liability. Lender shall not be liable to Borrower or any other parties for: (i) errors, acts or failures to act of others, including other entities, banks, communications carriers or clearinghouses, through which Borrower’s requested Disbursements may be made or information received or transmitted, and no such entity shall be deemed an agent of Lender; (ii) any loss, liability or delay caused by fires, earthquakes, wars, civil disturbances, power surges or failures, acts of government, labor disputes, failures in communications networks, legal constraints or other events beyond Lender’s control; or (iii) any special, consequential, indirect or punitive damages, whether or not (A) any claim for these damages is based on tort or contract or (B) Lender or Borrower knew or should have known the likelihood of these damages in any situation.  Lender makes no representations or warranties other than those expressly made in this Agreement.  IN NO EVENT WILL LENDER BE LIABLE FOR DAMAGES ARISING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY IF A DISBURSEMENT REQUEST IS EXECUTED BY LENDER IN GOOD FAITH AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT.


Reliance on Information Provided. Lender is authorized to rely on the information provided by Borrower or any Authorized Representative in or in accordance with this Agreement when executing a Disbursement Request until Lender has received a new Agreement signed by Borrower.  Borrower agrees to be bound by any Disbursement Request: (i) authorized or transmitted by Borrower; or (ii) made in Borrower’s name and accepted by Lender in good faith and in compliance with this Agreement, even if not properly authorized by Borrower.  Lender may rely solely (i) on the account number of the Receiving Party, rather than the Receiving Party’s name, and (ii) on the bank routing number of the Receiving Bank, rather than the Receiving Bank’s name, in executing a Disbursement Request.  Lender is not obligated or required in any way to take any actions to detect errors in information provided by Borrower or an Authorized Representative.  If Lender takes any actions in an attempt to detect errors in the transmission or content of transfers or requests or takes any actions in an attempt to detect unauthorized Disbursement Requests, Borrower agrees that, no matter how many times Lender takes these actions, Lender will not in any situation be liable for failing to take or correctly perform these actions in the future, and such actions shall not become any part of the Disbursement procedures authorized herein, in the Loan Documents, or in any agreement between Lender and Borrower.


International Disbursements. A Disbursement Request expressed in US Dollars will be sent in US Dollars, even if the Receiving Party or Receiving Bank is located outside the United States. Lender will not execute Disbursement Requests expressed in foreign currency unless permitted by the Loan Agreement.


Errors. Borrower agrees to notify Lender of any errors in the Disbursement of any funds or of any unauthorized or improperly authorized Disbursement Requests within fourteen (14) days after Lender’s confirmation to Borrower of such Disbursement. If Lender is notified that it did not disburse the full amount requested in a Disbursement Request, Lender’s sole liability will be to promptly disburse the amount of the stated deficiency. If Lender disburses an amount in excess of the amount requested in a Disbursement Request, Lender will only be liable for such excess amount to the extent that Borrower does not receive the benefit of such amount.


Finality of Disbursement Requests. Disbursement Requests will be final and will not be subject to stop payment or recall; provided that Lender may, at Borrower’s request, make an effort to effect a stop payment or recall but will incur no liability whatsoever for its failure or inability to do so.
