 - 30 - 








 2.2.3 Eurodollar Rate Unascertainable; Illegality; Increased Costs. 
  
 (a) (i) In the event that Lender shall have determined
(which determination shall be in Lender’s reasonable judgment and shall be conclusive and binding upon Borrower absent manifest error) that by reason of circumstances affecting the interbank eurodollar market, and reasonable means do not exist
for ascertaining LIBOR, then Lender shall forthwith give notice by telephone of such determination, to Borrower at least one (1) Business Day prior to the last day of the related Interest Period, with a written confirmation of such
determination promptly thereafter. If such notice is given, the Loan shall bear interest at the Adjusted Prime Rate beginning on the first day of the next succeeding Interest Period. 
  
 (ii) If, pursuant to the terms of this Section 2.2.3, Loan is bearing interest at the Adjusted Prime
Rate and Lender shall determine (which determination shall be in Lender’s reasonable judgment and shall be conclusive and binding upon Borrower absent manifest error) that the event(s) or circumstance(s) which resulted in such conversion shall
no longer be applicable, Lender shall give notice thereof to Borrower by telephone of such determination, confirmed in writing, to Borrower as soon as reasonably practical, but in no event later than one (1) Business Day prior to the last day
of the then current Interest Period. If such notice is given, the Loan shall bear interest at the Eurodollar Rate beginning on the first day of the next succeeding Interest Period. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in
no event shall Borrower have the right to elect to have the Loan bear interest at either the Eurodollar Rate or the Adjusted Prime Rate. 
  
 (b) If any requirement of law or any change therein or in the interpretation or application thereof, shall hereafter make it unlawful for
Lender or any Co-Lender in good faith to make or maintain the portion of the Loan bearing interest at the Eurodollar Rate, (I) the obligation of Lender or such Co-Lender hereunder to make the Loan bearing interest at the Eurodollar Rate shall
be canceled forthwith and (II) the Loan shall automatically bear interest at the Adjusted Prime Rate on the next succeeding Payment Date or within such earlier period as required by Applicable Law. Borrower hereby agrees promptly to pay Lender or
any Co-Lender (within ten (10) days of Lender’s or any Co-Lender’s written demand therefor), any additional amounts necessary to compensate Lender or any Co-Lender for any reasonable costs incurred by Lender or such Co-Lender in
making any conversion in accordance with this Agreement, including, without limitation, any interest or fees payable by Lender or such Co-Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to make or maintain the Loan hereunder. Upon written demand
from Borrower, Lender or the applicable Co-Lender shall demonstrate in reasonable detail the circumstances giving rise to Lender’s or such Co-Lender’s determination and the calculation substantiating the Adjusted Prime Rate and any
additional costs incurred by Lender or such Co-Lender in making the conversion. Lender’s or Co-Lender’s written notice of such costs, as certified to Borrower, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
  
 (c) In the event that any change in any requirement of any
Applicable Law or in the interpretation or application thereof, or compliance in good faith by Lender or any Co-Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) 
  

 - 31 - 








 hereafter issued from any Governmental Authority which is generally applicable to all Lenders subject to
such Governmental Authority’s jurisdiction: 
  
 (i) shall hereafter impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances or loans by, or other
credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of Lender or any Co-Lender which is not otherwise included in the determination of LIBOR hereunder; 
  
 (ii) shall, if the Loan is then bearing interest at the Eurodollar Rate, hereafter have the effect of
reducing the rate of return on Lender’s or any Co-Lender’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which Lender or any Co-Lender could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking
into consideration Lender’s or any Co-Lender’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by any amount deemed by Lender or any Co-Lender to be material; or 
  
 (iii) shall, if the Loan is then bearing interest at the Eurodollar Rate, hereafter impose on Lender or any
Co-Lender any other condition, the result of which is to increase the cost to Lender or such Co-Lender of making, renewing or maintaining loans or extensions of credit or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder; 
  
 then, in any such case, Borrower shall promptly pay Lender or such Co-Lender (within ten
(10) days of Lender’s or such Co-Lender’s written demand therefor), any additional amounts necessary to compensate Lender or such Co-Lender for such additional cost or reduced amount receivable which Lender or such Co-Lender
reasonably deems to be material. If Lender or any Co-Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.2.3(c), Lender and such Co-Lender shall provide Borrower with written notice specifying in reasonable detail
the event or circumstance by reason of which it has become so entitled and the additional amount required to fully compensate Lender and such Co-Lender for such additional cost or reduced amount. A certificate as to any additional costs or amounts
payable pursuant to the foregoing sentence submitted by Lender or such Co-Lender to Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error. This provision shall survive payment of the Note and the satisfaction of all other obligations of Borrower under
the Note, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 
  
 (d) Borrower agrees to indemnify Lender and the Co-Lenders and to hold Lender and the Co-Lenders harmless from any loss or expense which Lender or any Co-Lender sustains or incurs as a consequence of (I) any default by Borrower in
payment of the principal of or interest on the Loan while bearing interest at the Eurodollar Rate, including, without limitation, any such loss or expense arising from interest or fees payable by Lender or any Co-Lenders to lenders of funds obtained
by it in order to maintain the Eurodollar Rate, (II) any prepayment (whether voluntary or mandatory) of the Loan on a day that is not the day immediately following the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto, including, without
limitation, such loss or expense arising from interest or fees payable by Lender or any Co-Lender to lenders of funds obtained by 
  

 - 32 - 








 it in order to maintain the Eurodollar Rate hereunder and (III) the conversion (for any reason
whatsoever, whether voluntary or involuntary) of the Applicable Interest Rate from the Eurodollar Rate to the Adjusted Prime Rate with respect to any portion of the outstanding principal amount of the Loan then bearing interest at the Eurodollar
Rate on a date other than the day immediately following the last day of an Interest Period, including, without limitation, such loss or expenses arising from interest or fees payable by Lender or any Co-Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in
order to maintain the Eurodollar Rate hereunder (the amounts referred to in clauses (I), (II) and (III) are herein referred to collectively as the “Breakage Costs”). This provision shall survive payment of the Note and the satisfaction of
all other obligations of Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 
  
 2.2.4 Payment on Maturity Date. 
  
 Borrower shall pay to Lender on the Maturity Date the outstanding principal balance, all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, and all other amounts due hereunder and under the Note, the Pledge Agreement and the other Loan Documents,
including, without limitation, all interest that would accrue on the outstanding principal balance of the Loan through and including the Maturity Date. 
  
 2.2.5 Payments after Default. 
  
 Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, (a) interest on the outstanding principal balance of the Loan and, to the
extent permitted by Applicable Law, overdue interest and other amounts due in respect of the Loan, shall accrue at the Default Rate, calculated from the date such payment was due without regard to any grace or cure periods contained herein and
(b) Lender shall be entitled to receive and Borrower shall pay to Lender on each Payment Date an amount equal to the Net Cash Flow After Debt Service for the prior month, such amount to be applied by Lender to the payment of the Debt in such
order as Lender shall determine in its sole discretion, including, without limitation, alternating applications thereof between interest and principal. Interest at the Default Rate and Net Cash Flow After Debt Service shall both be computed from the
occurrence of the Default which gave rise to the Event of Default until the actual receipt and collection of the Debt (or that portion thereof that is then due). To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, interest at the Default Rate shall be added
to the Debt, shall itself accrue interest at the same rate as the Loan and shall be secured by the Pledge Agreement. This paragraph shall not be construed as an agreement or privilege to extend the date of the payment of the Debt, nor as a waiver of
any other right or remedy accruing to Lender by reason of the occurrence of any Event of Default; the acceptance of any payment of Net Cash Flow After Debt Service shall not be deemed to cure or constitute a waiver of any Event of Default; and
Lender retains its rights under the Note to accelerate and to continue to demand payment of the Debt upon the happening of any Event of Default, despite any payment of Net Cash Flow After Debt Service. 
  
 2.2.6 Late Payment Charge. 
  
 If any principal, interest or any other sums due under the Loan Documents is
not paid by Borrower on the date on which it is due, Borrower shall pay to Lender within three (3) Business 
  

 - 33 - 








 Days after demand an amount equal to the lesser of four percent (4%) of such unpaid sum or the maximum amount
permitted by Applicable Law in order to defray the expense incurred by Lender in handling and processing such delinquent payment and to compensate Lender for the loss of the use of such delinquent payment. Any such amount shall be secured by the
Pledge Agreement and the other Loan Documents to the extent permitted by Applicable Law. 
  
 2.2.7 Usury Savings. 
  
 This Agreement and the Note are subject to the express condition that at no time shall Borrower be obligated or required to pay interest on the principal balance of the Loan at a rate which could subject Lender to either civil or criminal
liability as a result of being in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate. If, by the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, Borrower is at any time required or obligated to pay interest on the principal balance due hereunder at a rate in
excess of the Maximum Legal Rate, the Applicable Interest Rate or the Default Rate, as the case may be, shall be deemed to be immediately reduced to the Maximum Legal Rate and all previous payments in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate shall be deemed
to have been payments in reduction of principal and not on account of the interest due hereunder. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Lender for the use, forbearance, or detention of the sums due under the Loan, shall, to the extent permitted by
Applicable Law, be amortized, prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the full stated term of the Loan until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Loan does not exceed the Maximum Legal Rate of interest from
time to time in effect and applicable to the Loan for so long as the Loan is outstanding. 
  
 2.2.8 Indemnified Taxes. 
  
 (a) All payments made by Borrower hereunder shall be made free and clear of, and without reduction for or on account of, Indemnified Taxes, excluding (i) Indemnified Taxes measured by Lender’s or any
Co-Lender’s net income, and franchise taxes imposed on it, by the jurisdiction under the laws of which Lender or any Co-Lender is resident or organized, or any political subdivision thereof, (ii) taxes measured by Lender’s or any
Co-Lender’s overall net income, and franchise taxes imposed on it, by the jurisdiction of Lender’s or such Co-Lender’s applicable lending office or any political subdivision thereof or in which Lender or such Co-Lender is resident or
engaged in business, and (iii) withholding taxes imposed by the United States of America, any state, commonwealth, protectorate territory or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein as a result of the failure of Lender
or any Co-Lender which is a Non-U.S. Entity to comply with the terms of paragraph (b) below. If any non excluded Indemnified Taxes are required to be withheld from any amounts payable to Lender or any Co-Lender hereunder, the amounts so payable
to Lender or such Co-Lender shall be increased to the extent necessary to yield to Lender or such Co-Lender (after payment of all non excluded Indemnified Taxes) interest or any such other amounts payable hereunder at the rate or in the amounts
specified hereunder. Whenever any non excluded Indemnified Tax is payable pursuant to Applicable Law by Borrower, Borrower shall send to Lender or the applicable Co-Lender an original official receipt showing payment of such non excluded Indemnified
Tax or other evidence of payment reasonably satisfactory to Lender or the applicable Co-Lender. Borrower hereby indemnifies Lender 
  

 - 34 - 








 and each Co-Lender for any incremental taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by Lender or
any Co-Lender which may result from any failure by Borrower to pay any such non excluded Indemnified Tax when due to the appropriate taxing authority or any failure by Borrower to remit to Lender or any Co-Lender the required receipts or other
required documentary evidence. 
  
 (b) In the
event that Lender or any Co-Lender or any successor and/or assign of Lender or any Co-Lender is not incorporated under the laws of the United States of America or a state thereof (a “Non-U.S. Entity”) Lender and such Co-Lender agrees that,
prior to the first date on which any payment is due from such entity hereunder, it will deliver to Borrower two duly completed copies of United States Internal Revenue Service Form W 8BEN or W 8ECI or successor applicable form, as the case may be,
certifying in each case that such entity is entitled to receive payments under the Note, without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes. Each entity required to deliver to Borrower a Form W 8BEN or W 8ECI pursuant to the
preceding sentence further undertakes to deliver to Borrower two further copies of such forms, or successor applicable forms, or other manner of certification, as the case may be, on or before the date that any such form expires (which, in the case
of the Form W 8ECI, is the last day of each U.S. taxable year of the Non-U.S. Entity) or becomes obsolete or after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form previously delivered by it to Borrower, and such other
extensions or renewals thereof as may reasonably be requested by Borrower, certifying in the case of a Form W 8BEN or W 8ECI that such entity is entitled to receive payments under the Note without deduction or withholding of any United States
federal income taxes, unless in any such case an event (including, without limitation, any change in treaty, law or regulation) has occurred prior to the date on which any such delivery would otherwise be required which renders all such forms
inapplicable or which would prevent such entity from duly completing and delivering any such form with respect to it and such entity advises Borrower that it is not capable of receiving payments without any deduction or withholding of United States
federal income tax. 
  
 2.2.9 Replacement of Lenders.

  
 Borrower shall be permitted to replace any Co-Lender that
(i) requests reimbursement for amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.2.3 or 2.2.8 or (ii) defaults in its obligation to make Loans hereunder, with a replacement financial institution, provided that (A) such replacement does not
conflict with any Applicable Law, (B) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such replacement, (C) the replacement financial institution shall purchase, at par, such Co-Lender’s Pro Rate Share of the
Loan and pay all other amounts owing to such replaced Co-Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents on or prior to the date of replacement, (E) the Borrower shall be liable to such replaced Co-Lender under Section 2.2.3(d) if
the Loan owing to such replaced Co-Lender shall be purchased other than on the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto, (F) the replacement financial institution, if not already a Co-Lender, shall be reasonably satisfactory to Lender
and shall comply with the requirements of the Intercreditor Agreement with respect to transfers of the Loan, (G) until such time as such replacement shall be consummated, the Borrower shall pay all additional amounts (if any) required pursuant
to Section 2.2.3 or 2.2.8, as the case may be, and (I) any such replacement shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any rights that the Borrower, the Lender or any Co-Lender shall have against the replaced Co-Lender. 
  

 - 35 - 








 Section 2.3 Prepayments. 
  
 2.3.1 Voluntary Prepayments. 
  
 On any Payment Date, Borrower may, at its option, prepay the Loan in whole
or in part, upon satisfaction of the following conditions: 
  
 (a) Borrower shall provide prior written notice to Lender (which notice shall be irrevocable) specifying the date (the “Prepayment Date”) upon which the prepayment is to be made, which notice shall be
delivered to Lender not less than twenty (20) Business Days prior to such payment; 
  
 (b) Borrower shall pay to Lender, simultaneously with such prepayment, (i) all accrued and unpaid interest calculated at the
Applicable Interest Rate on the amount of principal being prepaid through and including the Prepayment Date, (ii) if such prepayment is not made on a Payment Date, all accrued and unpaid interest on the amount of principal being prepaid through
and including the Prepayment Date, together with all interest on the principal amount being prepaid which would have accrued from the Prepayment Date through and including the immediately succeeding Payment Date, in each case calculated at the
Applicable Interest Rate for the Interest Period in which the prepayment occurs (the “Interest Shortfall”), (iii) Breakage Costs, if any, without duplication of any sums paid pursuant to the preceding clauses (i) and (ii),
(iv) if such prepayment occurs prior to the expiration of the Lockout Period, an amount equal to the Spread Maintenance Premium, and (v) all other sums then due under this Agreement, the Note or the other Loan Documents; 
  
 (c) each prepayment shall be in an aggregate principal
amount of $1,000,000.00 or any integral multiple of $100,000.00 in excess thereof; 
  
 (d) Mortgage Borrower shall have simultaneously with such prepayment made a pro rata prepayment of the Mortgage Loan pursuant to the
Mortgage Loan Agreement; and 
  
 (e) Such
prepayment shall not be prohibited pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Documents. 
  
 If a notice of prepayment is given by Borrower to Lender pursuant to this Section 2.3.1, the amount designated for prepayment and all other sums required under this Section 2.3.1 shall be due and payable on
the Prepayment Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower shall be permitted the right to rescind and revoke or postpone its notice of prepayment given in accordance with this Section 2.3.1, provided that (i) a written notice of such
rescission and revocation or postponement is received by Lender no later than three (3) Business Days prior to the date of prepayment indicated by Borrower and (ii) Borrower pays Lender’s reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses
incurred as a result of Lender’s receipt of such notice of prepayment and its rescission, revocation or postponement.

Condemnation of all or any portion of any Individual Property, (iii) a Transfer of any Individual Property in connection with realization thereon by the Mortgage Lender following an Event of Default under the Mortgage Loan, including without
limitation a foreclosure sale, or (iv) any refinancing of any Individual Property or the Mortgage Loan (each, a “Liquidation Event”), Borrower shall cause the related Net Liquidation Proceeds After Debt Service to be deposited
directly into an account designated by Lender. On each date on which Lender actually receives a distribution of Net Liquidation Proceeds After Debt Service, if such date is a Payment Date, such Net Liquidation Proceeds After Debt Service shall be
applied to the outstanding principal balance of the Note in an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of such Net Liquidation Proceeds After Debt Service, together with interest that would have accrued on such amount through the next
Payment Date and all other sums then due. In the event Lender receives a distribution of Net Liquidation Proceeds After Debt Service on a date other than a Payment Date, such amounts shall be held by Lender as collateral security for the Loan in an
interest bearing account, with such interest accruing to the benefit of Borrower, and shall be applied by Lender on the next Payment Date. 
  
 (b) Borrower shall immediately notify Lender of any Liquidation Event once Borrower has knowledge of such event. Borrower shall be deemed
to have knowledge of (i) a sale (other than a foreclosure sale) of any Individual Property on the date on which a contract of sale for such sale is entered into, and a foreclosure sale, on the date notice of such foreclosure sale is given, and
(ii) a refinancing of any Individual Property, on the date on which a commitment for such refinancing is entered into. The provisions of this Section 2.3.2 shall not be construed to contravene in any manner the restrictions and other
provisions regarding refinancing of the Mortgage Loan or Transfer of the Property set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 
  
 2.3.3 Prepayments After Default. 
  
 If, following an Event of Default, Borrower tenders payment of all or any part of the Debt, or if all or any portion of the Debt is recovered by Lender
after such Event of Default (including, without limitation, through application of any Net Liquidation Proceeds After Debt Service), such tender or recovery shall be deemed a voluntary prepayment hereunder and Borrower shall pay, in addition to the
Debt, (i) all accrued and unpaid interest calculated at the Applicable Interest Rate on the amount of principal being prepaid through and including the Prepayment Date, (ii) the Interest Shortfall, if applicable, with respect to the amount
prepaid, (iii) Breakage Costs, if any, without duplication of any sums paid pursuant to the preceding clause (ii), (iv) if such payment occurs prior to the expiration of the Lockout Period, an amount equal to the Spread Maintenance
Premium, and (v) all other sums due under this Agreement, the Note or the other Loan Documents in connection with a partial or total prepayment. 
  

 - 37 - 








 2.3.4 Making of Payments. 
  
 Each payment by Borrower hereunder or under the Note shall be made in funds settled through the New York Clearing House
Interbank Payments System or other funds immediately available to Lender by 12:00 p.m., New York City time, on or prior to the date such payment is due, to Lender by deposit to such account as Lender may designate by written notice to Borrower.
Whenever any payment hereunder or under the Note shall be stated to be due on a day which is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the first Business Day succeeding such scheduled due date. 
  
 2.3.5 Application of Prepayments. 
  
 All prepayments received pursuant to this Section 2.3 and
Section 2.5 shall be applied first, to interest on the outstanding principal balance being prepaid that accrued through and including the Prepayment Date, second, to interest on the outstanding principal balance being prepaid that would have
accrued through the end of the Interest Period in which the prepayment occurred, and if applicable, through the end of the Succeeding Interest Period, notwithstanding that such Interest Period or Succeeding Interest Period extends beyond the date of
prepayment, and third, to the payments of principal due under the Loan in the inverse order of maturity. 
  
 Section 2.4 Interest Rate Cap Agreement. 
  
 (a) In the event that Mortgage Lender waives the requirement for Mortgage Borrower to obtain and maintain the Mortgage Interest Rate Cap
Agreement in accordance with the terms of Section 2.4 of the Mortgage Loan Agreement, the Mortgage Loan has been paid in full, or Mortgage Borrower is in violation of its obligations of Section 2.4 of the Mortgage Loan Agreement, Borrower
shall, simultaneously with the occurrence of any such event, obtain, or cause to be obtained, and shall thereafter maintain in effect, an Interest Rate Cap Agreement with an Acceptable Counterparty, which shall be coterminous with the Loan and the
Mortgage Loan, if applicable, and have a notional amount which shall not at any time be less than the outstanding principal balance of the Loan and the Mortgage Loan, if applicable, and which shall at all times have a strike rate equal to the Strike
Rate. The Interest Rate Cap Agreement shall be written on the then current standard ISDA documentation, and shall provide for interest periods and calculations consistent with the payment terms of this Agreement. The Counterparty shall be obligated
under the Interest Rate Cap Agreement to make monthly payments equal to the excess of one (1) month LIBOR over the Strike Rate, calculated on the notional amount. The notional amount of the Interest Rate Cap Agreement may be reduced from time
to time in amounts equal to any prepayment of the principal of the Loan in accordance with Sections 2.3 and 2.5 hereof. 
  
 (b) Borrower shall collaterally assign to Lender pursuant to an Assignment of Interest Rate Cap Agreement substantially in the form
annexed hereto as Exhibit C, all of its right, title and interest to receive any and all payments under the Interest Rate Cap Agreement (and any related guarantee, if any) and shall deliver to Lender an executed counterpart of such Interest Rate Cap
Agreement and notify the Counterparty of such collateral assignment (either in such Interest Rate Cap Agreement or by separate instrument). Borrower shall cause the Counterparty to agree in writing to make all payments it is required to make under
the Interest Rate Cap Agreement directly to the 
  

 - 38 - 








 Lockbox Account or if the Lockbox Account is not then required to be in effect, into such account as
specified by Lender. At such time as the Loan is repaid in full, all of Lender’s right, title and interest in the Interest Rate Cap Agreement shall terminate and Lender shall promptly execute and deliver at Borrower’s sole cost and
expense, such documents as may be required to evidence Lender’s release of the Interest Rate Cap Agreement and to notify the Counterparty of such release. 
  

(c) Borrower shall comply with all of its material obligations under the terms and provisions of the Interest Rate Cap Agreement. All
amounts paid by the Counterparty under the Interest Rate Cap Agreement shall be deposited immediately into the Lockbox Account or if the Lockbox Account is not then required to be in effect, into such account as specified by Lender. Borrower shall
take all actions reasonably requested by Lender to enforce Lender’s rights under the Interest Rate Cap Agreement in the event of a default by the Counterparty and shall not waive, amend or otherwise modify any of its rights thereunder.

  
 (d) In the event of any downgrade, withdrawal
or qualification of the rating of the Counterparty below “AA-” (or the equivalent) by the Rating Agencies, Borrower shall replace the Interest Rate Cap Agreement with a Replacement Interest Rate Cap Agreement with an Acceptable
Counterparty not later than thirty (30) Business Days following receipt of notice from Lender or Servicer of such downgrade, withdrawal or qualification. 
  

(e) In the event that Borrower fails to purchase and deliver to Lender the Interest Rate Cap Agreement or any Replacement Interest Cap
Agreement as and when required hereunder, Lender may purchase such Interest Rate Cap Agreement and the cost incurred by Lender in purchasing such Interest Rate Cap Agreement shall be paid by Borrower to Lender with interest thereon at the Default
Rate from the date such cost was paid by Lender until such cost is paid by Borrower to Lender. 
  
 (f) Each Interest Rate Cap Agreement shall contain the following language or its equivalent: “In the event of any downgrade,
withdrawal or qualification of the rating of the Counterparty below “AA-” (or the equivalent) by the Rating Agencies, the Counterparty must, within 30 Business Days, either (x) post collateral on terms acceptable to each Rating Agency
or (y) find a replacement Acceptable Counterparty, at the Counterparty’s sole cost and expense, acceptable to each Rating Agency (notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Counterparty’s rating is downgraded to “A” or lower,
only the option described in clause (y) will be acceptable); provided that, notwithstanding such a downgrade, withdrawal or qualification, unless and until the Counterparty transfers the Interest Rate Cap Agreement to a replacement Acceptable
Counterparty pursuant to the foregoing clause (y), the Counterparty will continue to perform its obligations under the Interest Rate Cap Agreement. Failure to satisfy the foregoing shall constitute an Additional Termination Event as defined by
Section 5(b)(v) of the ISDA Master Agreement, with the Counterparty as the Affected Party.” 
  
 (g) In connection with an Interest Rate Cap Agreement, Borrower shall obtain and deliver to Lender an opinion of counsel from counsel for
the Counterparty (upon 
  

 - 39 - 








 which Lender and its successors and assigns may rely) which shall provide, in relevant part, that:

  
 (1) the Counterparty is duly organized, validly existing, and
in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation and has the organizational power and authority to execute and deliver, and to perform its obligations under, the Interest Rate Cap Agreement; 
  
 (2) the execution and delivery of the Interest Rate Cap Agreement by the
Counterparty, and any other agreement which the Counterparty has executed and delivered pursuant thereto, and the performance of its obligations thereunder have been and remain duly authorized by all necessary action and do not contravene any
provision of its certificate of incorporation or by-laws (or equivalent Organizational Documents) or any law, regulation or contractual restriction binding on or affecting it or its property; 
  
 (3) all consents, authorizations and approvals required for the execution and
delivery by the Counterparty of the Interest Rate Cap Agreement, and any other agreement which the Counterparty has executed and delivered pursuant thereto, and the performance of its obligations thereunder have been obtained and remain in full
force and effect, all conditions thereof have been duly complied with, and no other action by, and no notice to or filing with any governmental authority or regulatory body is required for such execution, delivery or performance; 
  
 Section 2.5 Release of Property. 
  
 2.5.1 Release of Individual Property.

(ii) Borrower’s obligations under the Loan Documents with respect to such Pledged Interests (other than those expressly stated to survive), or (B) cause Mortgage Borrower to obtain a release of an Individual Property from the Lien of
the related Security Instrument pursuant to the terms of Section 2.5.1 of the Mortgage Loan Agreement in the event that such Mortgage Borrower shall continue after such release to own any other Individual Property, but only upon the
satisfaction of each of the following conditions: 
  
 (a) Borrower shall provide Lender with at least twenty (20) days but no more than ninety (90) days prior written notice of its request to obtain a release of such security interest;

Mortgage Loan Agreement in all material respects, with respect to a release of the Security instrument corresponding to the release requested pursuant to this Section 2.5.1 and (ii) Mortgage Lender has delivered (or is simultaneously
delivering) such release to Mortgage Borrower;

Individual Properties released pursuant to this Section 2.5 (including the Individual Property that is the subject of the release) does not exceed ten percent (10%) of the original principal balance of the Loan, and (v) all other sums
due under this Agreement, the Note or the other Loan Documents in connection with a partial prepayment; 
  
 (d) Borrower shall submit to Lender, not less than twenty (20) days prior to the date of such release, a release of Lien of the
Pledge Agreement (and related Loan Documents) for such security interests for execution by Lender. In addition, Borrower shall provide all other documents and affidavits that may be required by Applicable Law in connection with such release,
together with an Officer’s Certificate certifying that (i) such documentation is in compliance with all applicable Legal Requirements, and (ii) the release will not impair or otherwise adversely affect the Liens, security interests
and other rights of Lender under the Loan Documents not being released (or as to the parties to the Loan Documents and Collateral subject to the Loan Documents not being released); 
  
 (e) With respect to any partial prepayment of a portion of the outstanding principal balance of the Loan in
connection with a release of the applicable Pledged Interests in accordance with all the conditions provided for in this Section 2.5.1, Lender shall release its security interest in the Pledged Interests in the applicable Mortgage Borrower
owning the Individual Property being simultaneously released from the Lien of the Security Instrument thereon pursuant to Section 2.5.1 of the Mortgage Loan Agreement (but only in the event that such Mortgage Borrower does not continue to own
any other Individual Property after giving effect to the release and Borrower does not continue to own any direct or indirect ownership interest in such Mortgage Borrower) and the other Loan Documents relating to such Pledged Interests and remit to
Borrower any remaining Reserve Funds held solely with respect to such Individual Property;

such release; 
  
 (g) After giving effect to such
release, Lender shall have determined that the aggregate Operating Lease Rents for the immediately preceding twelve (12) month period for the Properties then remaining subject to the Liens of the Security Instruments shall be sufficient to
cover the Adjusted Debt Service, Mortgage Adjusted Debt Service, deposits to the Reserve Funds and all other amounts scheduled to become due and payable hereunder and under the Mortgage Loan Agreement during the next succeeding twelve
(12) month period; if the conditions set forth in this clause (g) are not satisfied at the time of the proposed release, Borrower may satisfy such conditions by prepaying, in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.3.1 hereof,
an amount of principal sufficient to cause the conditions set forth in this clause (g) to be satisfied; 
  
 (h) Lender shall have received evidence that would be satisfactory to a prudent institutional mezzanine loan lender that the Individual
Property to be released pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Agreement shall be conveyed to a Person other than Mortgage Borrower, Borrower or Principal and that Borrower does not own any direct or indirect ownership interest in such Person; 
  
 (i) If the Operating Tenant with respect to the Operating

be released shall have been terminated, and, after giving effect to such release, the Mortgage Borrower that owned such Individual Property prior thereto (the “Release Property Transferor”) is the owner of an Individual Property that
remains encumbered by the Lien of the Security Instruments, Borrower shall, or cause Mortgage Borrower to, deliver an estoppel certificate from the Operating Tenant in form that would be satisfactory to a prudent institutional mezzanine loan lender
stating that the Operating Lease has been terminated and that the Operating Tenant has released the Release Property Transferor from all liability and obligation to the Operating Tenant in connection with the Operating Lease and that the Release
Property Transferor has no liability for the payment of any termination payments or any other payments due to the Operating Tenant and no further liability or obligation in connection with said Operating Lease;

above, Lender shall have received evidence that would be satisfactory to a prudent institutional mezzanine loan lender that the Austin Pledged Interests shall be conveyed to a Person other than Mortgage Borrower, Borrower or Principal and that
Borrower does not own any direct or indirect ownership interest in such Person.

 Section 2.6 Substitution of Properties. 
  
 Subject to the terms of this Section 2.6, Borrower may cause Mortgage
Borrower to obtain from time to time a release of one or more Individual Properties from the Lien of the related Security Instrument (each, a “Release Property”) provided that the aggregate Allocated Loan Amounts of all the security
interests released under this Section 2.6 (including the security interest that is the subject of the release), does not exceed 25% of the original principal amount of the Loan, by substituting therefor another hotel property of substantially
similar kind and quality acquired by Mortgage Borrower or an Affiliate of Mortgage Borrower (individually, a “Substitute Property” and collectively, the “Substitute Properties”) (provided, however, if the Substitute Property

transaction and evidence that Borrower does not own any direct or indirect ownership interest in such Person and (ii) a letter from Mortgage Borrower countersigned by a title insurance company acknowledging receipt of such deed and agreeing to
record such deed in the real estate records for the county in which the Release Property is located. 
  
 (d) If the Operating Tenant with respect to the Operating Lease for the Release Property is also the Operating Tenant with respect to an
Operating Lease for any Individual Property that shall remain subject to the Lien of a Security Instrument, then the Operating Lease for the Release Property shall have been terminated, and, after giving effect to such Release, the Release Property
Transferor is the owner of an Individual Property that remains encumbered by the Lien of the Security Instruments, an estoppel certificate from the Operating Tenant in form that would be satisfactory to a prudent institutional mezzanine loan lender

Property, (i) the Debt Service Coverage Ratio for the twelve (12) full calendar months 
  

 - 44 - 








 immediately preceding the date of the substitution with respect to all Properties remaining subject to
the lien of the Security Instruments after the substitution shall be equal to or greater than (A) Debt Service Coverage Ratio for the twelve (12) full calendar months immediately preceding the Closing Date and (B) Debt Service
Coverage Ratio for the twelve (12) full calendar months immediately preceding the substitution (including the Release Property and excluding the Substitute Property) and (ii) the Debt Service Coverage Ratio for the twelve (12) months

 (k) Borrower shall (A) have executed, acknowledged and delivered to Lender an Environmental Indemnity
with respect to the Substitute Property from Borrower and Guarantor and (B) have caused Guarantor to acknowledge and confirm its obligations under the Loan Documents. The Environmental Indemnity shall be the same in form and substance as the

 4.1.5 Agreements. 
  
 Borrower is not a party to any agreement or instrument or subject to any
restriction which might materially and adversely affect Borrower, Mortgage Borrower, the Collateral or any Individual Property, or Borrower’s or Mortgage Borrower’s business, properties or assets, operations or condition, financial or

Party purporting to grant a Lien on any Collateral is the record and beneficial owner of, and has good title to, the Collateral, free and clear of all Liens

when properly filed in the appropriate records, will create a valid, perfected first priority security interests in and to the Collateral, all in accordance with the terms thereof for which a Lien can be perfected by filing a UCC Financing

interest Property pursuant to the Ground Lease, in each Individual Property and that it owns the Properties free and clear of all liens, encumbrances and charges whatsoever except for the Permitted Encumbrances. The Permitted Encumbrances do not and
will not materially adversely affect or interfere with the value, or materially adversely affect or interfere with the current use or operation, of the Property or the ability of Borrower to repay the Note or any other amount owing under the Note,
the Pledge Agreement, the Loan Agreement, or the other Loan Documents or to perform its obligations thereunder in accordance with the terms of the Loan Agreement, the Note, the Pledge Agreement or the other Loan Documents. Other than Mortgage

Borrower does not intend to incur debt and liabilities (including contingent liabilities and other commitments) beyond its ability to pay such debt and liabilities as they mature (taking into account the timing and amounts of cash to be received by

property, and Borrower has no knowledge of any Person contemplating the filing of any such petition against it or such constituent Persons.

 (a) Borrower will keep and maintain on a Fiscal Year basis, in accordance with GAAP (or such other accounting basis reasonably acceptable
to Lender), proper and accurate books, records and accounts reflecting all of the financial affairs of Borrower and all items of income and expense with respect to the Collateral. Borrower will cause Mortgage Borrower to keep and maintain on a

necessary or appropriate in the protection of Lender’s interest. To the extent that any of the items described below in this Section 5.1.10 are prepared by the Operating Tenant rather than by Borrower, Borrower agrees to cause Operating
Tenant to deliver such items to Lender in the form and within the time periods set forth below. 
  
 (b) Borrower will furnish, and cause to be furnished, to Lender annually, within one hundred twenty (120) days following the end of

 (d) For the partial year
period commencing on the date hereof, and for each Fiscal Year thereafter, Borrower shall cause Mortgage Borrower to submit to Lender an Annual Budget for each Individual Property not later than sixty (60) days prior to the commencement of such
period or Fiscal Year in form reasonably satisfactory to Lender, and shall be subject to Lender’s written approval, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, notwithstanding any limitation in the Operating Lease on Borrower’s right to
approve the Operating Tenant’s operating budget (each such Annual Budget after it has been approved in writing by Lender shall be hereinafter referred to as an “Approved Annual Budget”). The Annual Budget defined in and required
pursuant to Section 17.3 of the Operating Lease shall satisfy the form of the required Annual Budget. If Lender does not advise Borrower of any objections to the proposed Annual Budget within twenty (20) Business Days after receipt
thereof, such proposed Annual Budget shall be deemed approved. In the event that Lender objects to a proposed Annual Budget submitted by Borrower, Lender shall advise Borrower of such objections within twenty (20) Business Days after receipt
thereof (and deliver to Borrower a reasonably detailed description of such objections) and Borrower shall cause Mortgage Borrower and Operating Tenant to promptly revise such Annual Budget and resubmit the same to Lender. Lender shall advise
Borrower of any objections to such revised Annual Budget within ten (10) days after receipt thereof (and deliver to Borrower a reasonably detailed description of such objections) and Borrower shall cause Mortgage Borrower and Operating Tenant
to promptly revise the same in accordance with the process described in this subsection until Lender approves the Annual Budget. Until such time that Lender approves or has been deemed to approve a proposed Annual Budget, the most recently Approved
Annual Budget shall apply; provided that, such Approved Annual Budget shall be adjusted to reflect actual increases in Taxes, Insurance Premiums and utilities expenses. In addition, following a Termination Event, Lender shall have the right to
approve any Extraordinary Expenses. 
  
 (e)
Borrower shall furnish or cause Mortgage Borrower to furnish to Lender, within ten (10) Business Days after request such further detailed information with respect to the operation of the Properties and the financial affairs of Borrower or
Mortgage Borrower, Operating Tenant, the REIT, the Operating Partnership or the Manager as may be reasonably requested by Lender, including, without limitation, an annual operating budget for each Individual Property.

(ii) on a compact disk or a diskette, and (iii) if requested by Lender and within the capabilities of Borrower’s or Mortgage Borrower’s, as applicable, data systems without change or modification thereto, in electronic form and
prepared using a Microsoft Word for Windows or WordPerfect for Windows files (which files may be prepared using a spreadsheet program and saved as word processing files). 
  
 (i) Borrower agrees that Lender may forward to each purchaser, transferee, assignee, servicer, participant,
Co-Lender or investor in all or any portion of the Loan or any Securities (collectively, the “Investor”) or any Rating Agency rating such participations and/or Securities and each prospective Investor, and any organization maintaining
databases on the underwriting and performance of commercial mortgage loans, all documents and information which Lender now has or may hereafter acquire relating to the Debt and to Borrower, Mortgage Borrower, any Guarantor, the Collateral, and the
Properties, whether furnished by Borrower, Mortgage Borrower, any Guarantor, or otherwise, as Lender determines necessary or desirable. Borrower irrevocably waives any and all rights it may have under any Applicable Laws to prohibit such disclosure,
including, but not limited, to any right of privacy. 
  
 5.1.11
Business and Operations. 
  
 Borrower will cause Mortgage
Borrower to continue to be engaged in the businesses presently conducted by it as and to the extent the same are necessary for the ownership, maintenance, management and operation of the Properties. Borrower will and shall cause Mortgage Borrower to
remain in good standing under the laws of each jurisdiction to the extent required for the ownership, maintenance, management and operation of the Properties. 
  

5.1.12 Costs of Enforcement. 
  
 In the event (a) that Lender exercises any of its rights or remedies under the Pledge Agreement or any other Loan Document as and when permitted
thereby, or (b) of the bankruptcy, insolvency, rehabilitation or other similar proceeding in respect of Borrower or any of its constituent Persons or an assignment by Borrower or any of its constituent Persons for the benefit of its creditors,
or (c) Lender incurs any costs or expenses in connection with any refinancing or restructuring of the Loan in the nature of a workout, Borrower, its successors or assigns, shall be chargeable with and agrees to pay all costs of collection and
defense and all other expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, incurred by Lender or Borrower in connection therewith and in connection with any appellate proceeding or post-judgment action involved therein, together with all
required service or use taxes.

covenants or provisions of the Franchise Agreement and Franchisor knows of no event which, but for the passage of time or the giving of notice or both, would constitute an event of default under the Franchise Agreement, (iii) neither Franchisor

any of the material terms, covenants or provisions of the Management Agreement and Manager knows of no event which, but for the passage of time or the giving of notice or both, would constitute an event of default under the Management Agreement,
(iii) neither Manager nor Mortgage Borrower nor Operating Tenant, as the case may be, has commenced any action or given or received any notice for the purpose of terminating the Management Agreement and (iv) all sums due and payable to

Borrower without the prior written consent of Lender. 
  
 (b) Except as required pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Agreement, Borrower shall not cause or request or permit Mortgage Borrower to enter into or otherwise request any amendment, waiver, supplement, termination or other modification of any

 5.1.17 Leasing Matters. 
  
 (a) With respect to any Individual Property, Borrower may cause Mortgage Borrower or Operating Tenant to
enter into a proposed Lease (including the renewal or extension of an existing Lease, other than an Operating Lease, (a “Renewal Lease”)) without the prior written consent of Lender, provided that if such proposed Lease or Renewal Lease is
a Major Lease, such Major Lease (i) provides for rental rates and terms comparable to existing local market rates and terms (taking into account the type and quality of the tenant) as of the date such Major Lease is executed by Mortgage
Borrower (unless, in the case of a Renewal Lease, the rent payable during such renewal, or a formula or other method to compute such rent, is provided for in the original Lease), (ii) is an arms-length transaction with a bona fide, independent
third party tenant, and (iii) does not have a material adverse effect on the value or quality of the applicable Individual Property. All proposed Major Leases which do not satisfy the requirements set forth in this Section 5.1.17(a) shall
be subject to the prior approval of Lender, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. At Lender’s request, Borrower shall cause Mortgage Borrower and Operating Tenant, as applicable, to promptly deliver to Lender copies of all Major
Leases which are entered into pursuant to this Subsection together with Borrower’s certification that it has satisfied or caused Mortgage Borrower to have satisfied all of the conditions of this Section. 
  
 (b) Borrower shall, or cause Mortgage Borrower to cause
Operating Tenant to, (i) observe and perform all the material obligations imposed upon the lessor under the Major Leases and shall not do or permit to be done anything to impair the value of any of the Major Leases as security for the Debt;
(ii) promptly send copies to Lender of all notices of default or other material matters which Mortgage Borrower shall send or receive with respect to the Major Leases; (iii) enforce all of the material terms, covenants and conditions
contained in the Major Leases upon the part of the tenant thereunder to be observed or performed (except for termination of a Major Lease which shall require Lender’s prior written approval); (iv) not collect any of the Rents more than one
(1) month in advance (except security deposits shall not be deemed Rents collected in advance); (v) not execute any other assignment of the lessor’s interest in any of the Major Leases or the Rents (except as contemplated by the
Mortgage Loan Documents); and (vi) not consent to any assignment of or subletting under any Major Leases not in accordance with their terms, without the prior written consent of Lender. 
  
 (c) Borrower may, or cause Mortgage Borrower to cause
Operating Tenant to, without the consent of Lender, cause Mortgage Borrower to amend, modify or waive the provisions of any Lease or terminate, reduce rents under, accept a surrender of space under, or shorten the term of, any Lease (other than the
Operating Lease) (including any guaranty, letter of credit or other credit support with respect thereto) provided that such Lease is not a Major Lease and that such action (taking into account, in the case of a termination, reduction in rent,
surrender of space or shortening of term, the planned alternative use of the affected space) does not have a material adverse effect on the value 
  

 - 78 - 








 of the applicable Individual Property taken as a whole, and provided that such Lease, as amended,
modified or waived, is otherwise in compliance with the requirements of this Agreement. A termination of a Lease (other than a Major Lease) with a tenant who is in default beyond applicable notice and grace periods shall not be considered an action
which has a material adverse effect on the value of the applicable Individual Property taken as a whole. Any amendment, modification, waiver, termination, rent reduction, space surrender or term shortening which does not satisfy the requirements set
forth in this Subsection shall be subject to the prior written approval of Lender, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld and its counsel, at Borrower’s expense. At Lender’s request, Borrower shall cause Mortgage Borrower or
Operating Tenant, as applicable, to promptly deliver to Lender copies of all Leases, amendments, modifications and waivers which are entered into pursuant to this Section 5.1.17(c) together with Borrower’s certification that it has
satisfied all of the conditions of this Section 5.1.17(c). 
  
 (d) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, with respect to any Individual Property, Borrower shall not cause or permit Mortgage Borrower or Operating Tenant to, without the prior written consent of
Lender, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, enter into, renew, extend, amend, modify, waive any provisions of, terminate, reduce rents under, accept a surrender of space under, or shorten the term of, any Major Lease or any instrument
guaranteeing or providing credit support for any Major Lease. 
  
 5.1.18 Management Agreement. 
  
 (a) The Improvements on the Properties are operated under the terms and conditions of the Management Agreement. In no event shall the base management fees under the Management Agreement exceed three percent (3%) of the gross income
derived from the Property and any incentive management fees shall not accrue. All fees (base, incentive, termination or otherwise) due under the Management Agreement must be subordinate in lien and payment to this Agreement (other than base
management fees not in excess of three percent (3%) of the gross income derived from the Property). Borrower shall cause Mortgage Borrower to cause Operating Tenant to (i) diligently perform and observe all of the material terms,
covenants and conditions of the Management Agreement, on the part of Mortgage Borrower or Operating Tenant to be performed and observed to the end that all things shall be done which are necessary to keep unimpaired the rights of Mortgage Borrower
and Operating Tenant under the Management Agreement and (ii) promptly notify Lender of the giving of any notice by Manager to Mortgage Borrower or Operating Tenant of any default by Mortgage Borrower or Operating Tenant in the performance or
observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of the Management Agreement on the part of Mortgage Borrower or Operating Tenant to be performed and observed and deliver to Lender a true copy of each such notice. Neither Borrower nor
Mortgage Borrower shall cause Operating Tenant to surrender the Management Agreement, consent to the assignment by the Manager of its interest under the Management Agreement, or terminate or cancel the Management Agreement, or modify, change,
supplement, alter or amend the Management Agreement, in any material respect, either orally or in writing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Mortgage Borrower or Operating Tenant may terminate a 
  

 - 79 - 








 Management Agreement provided that Borrower or Operating Tenant simultaneously enters into a Replacement
Management Agreement with a Qualified Manager. Subject to the rights of Mortgage Lender, if Mortgage Borrower or Operating Tenant shall default in the performance or observance of any material term, covenant or condition of the Management Agreement
on the part of Mortgage Borrower or Operating Tenant to be performed or observed, then, without limiting the generality of the other provisions of this Agreement, and without waiving or releasing Borrower from any of its obligations hereunder,
Borrower shall permit Lender, upon five (5) days prior notice to Borrower, to pay any sums and to perform any act or take any action as may be appropriate to cause all the terms, covenants and conditions of the Management Agreement on the part
of Mortgage Borrower or Operating Tenant to be performed or observed to be promptly performed or observed on behalf of Mortgage Borrower or Operating Tenant, to the end that the rights of Mortgage Borrower or Operating Tenant in, to and under the
Management Agreement shall be kept unimpaired and free from default; provided, however, that Lender shall have no such obligation to perform any such action. Borrower shall cause Lender and any Person designated by Lender to have, the right to enter
upon the applicable Individual Property at any time and from time to time for the purpose of taking any such action. If the Manager shall deliver to Lender a copy of any notice sent to Mortgage Borrower or Operating Tenant of default under the
Management Agreement, such notice shall constitute full protection to Lender for any action taken or omitted to be taken by Lender in good faith, in reliance thereon. None of Borrower, Mortgage Borrower or Operating Tenant shall, or permit, the
Manager to, sub-contract any or all of its management responsibilities under the Management Agreement to a third-party without the prior written consent of Lender, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Borrower shall, or cause Mortgage
Borrower to cause Operating Tenant to, from time to time, obtain from the Manager such certificates of estoppel with respect to compliance by Mortgage Borrower and Operating Tenant with the terms of the Management Agreement as may be requested by
Lender (which requests shall be made no more frequently than once in any consecutive twelve month period unless such request is made in connection with a Securitization). Borrower and Mortgage Borrower shall cause Operating Tenant to exercise each
individual option, if any, to extend or renew the term of the Management Agreement upon demand by Lender made at any time within or prior to the period within which any such option may be exercised. Any sums expended by Lender pursuant to this
paragraph (i) shall bear interest at the Default Rate from the date such cost is incurred to the date of payment to Lender, (ii) shall be deemed to constitute a portion of the Debt, (iii) shall be secured by the lien of the Pledge
Agreement and the other Loan Documents and (iv) shall be immediately due and payable upon demand by Lender therefor. Borrower represents that Interstate Management Company, L.L.C., the current manager of the Properties, is not an Affiliate of,
nor Affiliated with, Borrower, Mortgage Borrower or Guarantor. 
  
 (b) Without limitation of the foregoing, Borrower, upon the request of Lender, shall cause Mortgage Borrower to, or cause Operating Tenant to, terminate the Management Agreement and replace the Manager, without
penalty or fee, if at any time during the Loan: (a) the Manager shall become insolvent or a debtor in any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding, (b) there exists an Event of Default, (c) there exists a material default by Manager under
the Management Agreement. At such time as the Manager may be removed, a Qualified Manager shall assume management of the applicable Individual Property pursuant to a Replacement Management Agreement. 
  

 - 80 - 








 5.1.19 Environmental Covenants. 
  
 (a) Borrower covenants and agrees that so long as the Loan is outstanding (i) Mortgage Borrower’s
uses and operations on or of the Properties shall be in compliance with applicable Environmental Laws and permits issued pursuant thereto in all material respects; (ii) there shall be no Releases of Hazardous Materials by Mortgage Borrower in,
on, under or from any of the Properties in violation of Environmental Law; (iii) Borrower shall not permit or cause Mortgage Borrower to use, generate, treat, store, dispose or transport Hazardous Materials in, on, or under any of the
Properties, except those that are both (A) in material compliance with all Environmental Laws and with permits issued pursuant thereto, if and to the extent required, and (B) (1) in amounts not in excess of that necessary to operate
the applicable Individual Property (including each tenant’s respective business at such Property), (2) fully disclosed in the Environmental Reports or otherwise disclosed to and approved by Lender in writing or (3) held by a tenant
for sale to the public in its ordinary course of business; (iv) Borrower shall cause Mortgage Borrower to keep the Properties free and clear of all liens and other encumbrances imposed pursuant to any Environmental Law, whether due to any act
or omission of Borrower or any other Person (the “Environmental Liens”), subject to the provisions of Section 5.2.10 hereof; (v) Borrower shall cause Mortgage Borrower to, at its sole cost and expense, fully and expeditiously
cooperate in all activities pursuant to paragraph (b) below, including but not limited to providing access to the Individual Properties and all relevant information in its possession, custody or control and making knowledgeable persons
available for interviews at reasonable times; (vi) Borrower shall cause Mortgage Borrower to, at its sole cost and expense, comply with all reasonable written requests of Lender to (A) reasonably effectuate remediation of any Hazardous
Materials in, on, under or from any Individual Property, and (B) comply with any Environmental Law; and (vii) Borrower shall cause Mortgage Borrower to take all commercially reasonable measures to require that each tenant complies in all
material respects with provisions (i) through (vi) of this Section 5.1.19(a); 
  
 (b) Borrower covenants and agrees that so long as the Loan is outstanding, Borrower shall promptly notify Lender in writing after it has
become aware of: (i) any presence or Release or threatened Releases of Hazardous Materials in, on, under, from or migrating towards any of the Properties; (ii) any non compliance with any Environmental Laws related in any way to any of the
Properties; (iii) any actual or potential Environmental Lien; (iv) any required or proposed remediation of environmental conditions relating to any of the Properties; and (v) any written or oral notice or other communication of which
Borrower becomes aware from any source whatsoever (including but not limited to a Governmental Authority) relating in any way to Borrower’s liability for any Hazardous Materials in material violation of any Environmental Laws. 
  
 (c) Lender and its designated agents or representatives,
including but not limited to any environmental consultant, and any receiver appointed by any court of 
  

 - 81 - 








 competent jurisdiction, shall have the right, but not the obligation, to enter upon any Individual
Property at all reasonable times to assess any and all aspects of the environmental condition of any Individual Property and its use. If Lender reasonably believes that Borrower or Mortgage Borrower has breached any environmental representation,
warranty or covenant contained in Sections 4.1.39 or 5.1.19(a) and (b) hereof, Lender may request that Borrower undertake such tests and investigations of the environmental condition of the Individual Property (or portions thereof) that are
reasonably necessary under the circumstances to assess the alleged breach of the representation, warranty or covenant. Any such tests or investigations shall be conducted by a qualified environmental engineer or consultant, reasonably acceptable to
Lender, and if determined by the environmental engineer or consultant to be reasonably necessary, may include invasive sampling (such as any sampling of the soil, groundwater, surface water, air or building materials). Borrower shall provide Lender
with a copy of any reports of the results of such tests and investigations and Lender and other Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to rely on such reports. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, or if Borrower has not diligently
pursued such tests and investigations as are reasonably requested by Lender pursuant to this Section 5.1.19(c), then Lender may hire its own environmental engineer or consultant, at Borrower’s expense, to conduct such tests and
investigations. Lender shall make all reasonable efforts to conduct any such tests and investigations so as to avoid interference with the operation of the Property. 
  
 (d) If counsel to Mortgage Borrower or Borrower reasonably determines that providing Lender with a document
otherwise required to be provided pursuant to this Section 5.1.19 (or any other provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document relating to environmental matters) would jeopardize an applicable attorney-client or work product privilege
pertaining to such document, the Borrower shall not be obligated to provide such document to Lender but shall provide Lender with a notice identifying the author and recipient of such document and generally describing the content of the documents.
Upon request of Lender, Borrower shall take all reasonable steps necessary to provide, or cause Mortgage Borrower to provide, Lender with the factual information contained in any such privileged documents. Nothing contained in this
Section 5.1.19(d) shall in any way limit lender’s rights under Section 5.1.19(c) hereof. 
  
 5.1.20 Alterations. 
  
 Borrower shall obtain Lender’s prior written consent to any alterations to any Improvements, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld except
with respect to alterations that may have a material adverse effect on Borrower’s or Mortgage Borrower’s financial condition, the value of the related Individual Property, the Collateral or the Net Operating Income. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Lender’s consent shall not be required in connection with any alterations that will not have a material adverse effect on Borrower’s or Mortgage Borrower’s financial condition, the value of the related Individual Property,
the Collateral or the Net Operating Income, provided that such alterations (a) are made in connection with work performed pursuant to an Approved Capital Budget for the related Individual Property or (b) do not adversely affect any
structural component of any Improvements, any utility or HVAC system contained in any Improvements or the exterior of any building constituting a part 
  

 - 82 - 








 of any Improvements and either (i) the cost of which is less than $1,000,000.00, or (ii) are alterations
performed in connection with the Restoration of the related Individual Property in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement and the Mortgage Loan Agreement. If the total unpaid amounts with respect to alterations to the
Improvements at the related Individual Property (other than such amounts to be paid or reimbursed by tenants under the Leases) shall at any time exceed 5% of the Allocated Loan Amount for the related Individual Property (the “Alteration
Threshold Amount”), provided that, at no time shall the total cost of all alterations then being undertaken on all of the Properties exceed $10,000,000.00, Borrower shall promptly deliver or cause to be delivered to Lender as security for the
payment of such amounts and as additional security for Borrower’s obligations under the Loan Documents any of the following: (A) cash, (B) U.S. Obligations, (C) other securities having a rating acceptable to Lender and for which
Lender has received a Rating Confirmation, or (D) a completion bond or letter of credit issued by a financial institution having a rating by S&P of not less than A-1+ if the term of such bond or letter of credit is no longer than three
(3) months or, if such term is in excess of three (3) months, issued by a financial institution having a rating that is acceptable to Lender and for which Lender has received a Rating Confirmation. Such security shall be in an amount equal
to the excess of the total unpaid amounts with respect to alterations to the Improvements on the applicable Individual Property (other than such amounts to be paid or reimbursed by tenants under the Leases) over the Alteration Threshold Amount and
applied from time to time at the option of Lender to pay for such alterations or to terminate any of the alterations and restore the related Individual Property to the extent necessary to prevent any material adverse effect on the value of the
related Individual Property. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower shall be relieved of its obligation to deposit the security for certain alterations described above provided Mortgage Borrower is required to and does deliver such security to
Mortgage Lender in accordance with the Mortgage Loan Documents and Lender received evidence acceptable to Lender of the delivery of such security. 
  
 5.1.21 Franchise Agreement. 
  
 The Improvements on the Properties shall be operated under the terms and conditions of the Franchise Agreements. Borrower shall, or shall cause Mortgage
Borrower to, or cause Operating Tenant to, (i) pay all sums required to be paid by Mortgage Borrower under the Franchise Agreement, (ii) diligently perform, observe and enforce all of the material terms, covenants and conditions of the
Franchise Agreement on the part of Mortgage Borrower or Operating Tenant to be performed, observed and enforced to the end that all things shall be done which are necessary to keep unimpaired the rights of Mortgage Borrower and Operating Tenant
under the Franchise Agreement, (iii) promptly notify Lender of the giving of any notice to Mortgage Borrower or Operating Tenant of any default by Mortgage Borrower or Operating Tenant in the performance or observance of any of the terms,
covenants or conditions of the Franchise Agreement on the part of Mortgage Borrower or Operating Tenant to be performed and observed and deliver to Lender a true copy of each such notice, and (iv) promptly deliver to Lender a copy of each
financial statement, business plan, capital expenditure plan, material notice, report and estimate received by it under the Franchise Agreement. Neither Borrower nor Mortgage Borrower shall cause Operating Tenant to, without the prior consent of
Lender, surrender the Franchise Agreement or terminate or cancel the Franchise Agreement or modify, change, supplement, alter or amend the Franchise Agreement, in any material respect, either orally or in writing. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Borrower or Operating Tenant may 
  

 - 83 - 








 terminate a Franchise Agreement provided that Borrower simultaneously enters into a Replacement Franchise Agreement with
a Qualified Franchisor. Subject to the rights of Mortgage Lender, if Mortgage Borrower or Operating Tenant shall default in the performance or observance of any material term, covenant or condition of the Franchise Agreement on the part of Mortgage
Borrower or Operating Tenant to be performed or observed, then, without limiting the generality of the other provisions of this Agreement, and without waiving or releasing Borrower from any of its obligations hereunder, Borrower shall permit Lender
to pay any sums and to perform any act or take any action as may be appropriate to cause all the terms, covenants and conditions of the Franchise Agreement on the part of Mortgage Borrower or Operating Tenant to be performed or observed to be
promptly performed or observed on behalf of Mortgage Borrower or Operating Tenant, to the end that the rights of Mortgage Borrower and Operating Tenant in, to and under the Franchise Agreement shall be kept unimpaired and free from default;
provided, however, that Lender shall have no such obligation to perform any such action. Borrower shall cause Lender and any Person designated by Lender shall have, and are hereby granted, the right to enter upon the Properties at any time and from
time to time for the purpose of taking any such action. If Franchisor shall deliver to Lender a copy of any notice sent to Borrower and Mortgage Borrower or Operating Tenant of default under the Franchise Agreement, such notice shall constitute full
protection to Lender for any action taken or omitted to be taken by Lender in good faith, in reliance thereon. Borrower shall cause Mortgage Borrower, or shall cause Operating Tenant, from time to time, use its commercially reasonable efforts to
obtain from Franchisor such certificates of estoppel with respect to compliance by Mortgage Borrower and Operating Tenant with the terms of the Franchise Agreement as may be requested by Lender. Borrower shall cause Mortgage Borrower and Operating
Tenant shall exercise each individual option, if any, to extend or renew the term of the Franchise Agreement upon demand by Lender made at any time prior to or within the period in which any such option may be exercised, provided, however
that Borrower shall not be required to comply with such request of Lender so long as Borrower is entering into a Replacement Franchise Agreement, the term of which shall begin upon the expiration of the Franchise Agreement currently in effect at the
time of Lender’s request. Any sums expended by Lender pursuant to this paragraph shall bear interest at the Default Rate from the date such cost is incurred to the date of payment to Lender, shall be deemed to constitute a portion of the Debt,
shall be secured by the lien of the Pledge Agreement and the other Loan Documents and shall be immediately due and payable upon demand by Lender therefor. 
  
 5.1.22 The Ground Lease. 
  
 With respect to each Ground Lease, 
  
 (a) Borrower shall cause Mortgage Borrower to (i) pay all rents, additional rents and other sums required to be paid by Mortgage
Borrower, as tenant under and pursuant to the provisions of each Ground Lease, (ii) diligently perform and observe all of the terms, covenants and conditions of each Ground Lease on the part of Mortgage Borrower, as tenant thereunder,
(iii) promptly notify Lender of the giving of any notice by the Fee Owner under the applicable Ground Lease to Mortgage Borrower of any default by Mortgage Borrower, as tenant thereunder, and deliver to Lender a true copy of each such notice
within five (5) Business Days of receipt and (iv) promptly notify Lender of any bankruptcy, reorganization or insolvency of the Fee Owner under the applicable 
  

 - 84 -

copy of such notice within five (5) Business Days of Borrower’s receipt, together with copies of all notices, pleadings, schedules and similar matters received by Borrower in connection with such bankruptcy, reorganization or insolvency
within five (5) Business Days after receipt. Borrower shall not, without the prior consent of Lender, permit or cause Mortgage Borrower to (x) surrender the leasehold estate created by the applicable Ground Lease or terminate or cancel any
Ground Lease or modify, change, supplement, alter or amend any Ground Lease, either orally or in writing, or (y) consent to, acquiesce in, or fail to object to, any attempt by any Fee Owner, as debtor in possession or by a trustee for such Fee
Owner, to sell or transfer the Fee Estate with respect to any Ground Lease free and clear of the Ground Lease under section 363(f) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise. Borrower shall cause Mortgage Borrower to object to any such attempt by such Fee
Owner, as debtor in possession or by a trustee for such Fee Owner, to sell or transfer the Fee Estate with respect to any Ground Lease free and clear of the Ground Lease under section 363(f) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, and in such event
shall affirmatively assert and pursue its right to adequate protection under section 363(e) of the Bankruptcy Code. Borrower hereby grants to Lender the right to object to any such sale or transfer on behalf of Borrower and Mortgage Borrower, and
Borrower shall not permit or cause Mortgage Borrower to contest any pleadings, motions documents or other actions filed or taken on Lender’s or Borrower’s or Mortgage Borrower’s behalf by Lender in the event that any Fee Owner, as
debtor in possession or by a trustee for such Fee Owner, attempts to sell or transfer the Fee Estate with respect to any Ground Lease free and clear of the Ground Lease under section 363(f) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise. 
  
 (b) If Mortgage Borrower shall default in the performance or
observance of any term, covenant or condition of any Ground Lease on the part of Mortgage Borrower, as tenant thereunder, and shall fail to cure the same prior to the expiration of any applicable cure period provided thereunder, Lender shall have
the right, to the extent Lender has received notice of, or has otherwise become aware of any such default, but shall be under no obligation, to pay any sums and to perform any act or take any action as may be appropriate to cause all of the terms,
covenants and conditions of such Ground Lease on the part of Mortgage Borrower to be performed or observed on behalf of Mortgage Borrower, to the end that the rights of Mortgage Borrower in, to and under such Ground Lease shall be kept unimpaired
and free from default; provided, however, that Lender shall have no such obligation to perform any such actions. If the landlord under the applicable Ground Lease shall deliver to Lender a copy of any notice of default under such Ground Lease, such
notice shall constitute full protection to Lender for any action taken or omitted to be taken by Lender, in good faith, in reliance thereon. Borrower shall cause Mortgage Borrower to exercise each individual option, if any, to extend or renew the
term of each Ground Lease prior to or within the period in which any such option may be exercised. 
  
 (c) Notwithstanding anything contained in any Ground Lease to the contrary, Borrower shall not permit or cause Mortgage Borrower to
further sublet any portion of the related Individual Property (other than as permitted pursuant to Section 5.1.17 hereof) without prior written consent of Lender. Each sublease hereafter made shall provide that, 
  

 - 85 - 








 (a) in the event of the termination of the Ground Lease, the sublease shall not terminate or be
terminable by the lessee thereunder; (b) in the event of any action for the foreclosure of the Security Instrument with respect to the related Individual Property, the sublease shall not terminate or be terminable by the lessee thereunder by
reason of the termination of the Ground Lease unless such lessee is specifically named and joined in any such action and unless a judgment is obtained therein against such lessee; and (c) in the event that the Ground Lease is terminated as
aforesaid, the lessee under the sublease shall attorn to the lessor under the Ground Lease or to the purchaser at the sale of the related Individual Property on such foreclosure, as the case may be. In the event that any portion of such Individual
Property shall be sublet pursuant to the terms of this subsection, such sublease shall be deemed to be included in the Individual Property. 
  
 5.1.23 OFAC. 
  
 At all times throughout the term of the Loan, Borrower, Mortgage Borrower, Guarantor and their respective Affiliates shall be in compliance with all
applicable orders, rules, regulations and recommendations of The Office of Foreign Assets Control of the U.S. Department of the Treasury. 
  
 5.1.24 Operating Lease. 
  
 (a) Lender acknowledges that Mortgage Borrower has leased the Property and the operation of the Property to the Operating Tenant pursuant
to the Operating Lease. If Mortgage Borrower shall default in the performance or observance of any material term, covenant or condition of the Operating Lease on the part of Mortgage Borrower to be performed or observed, then, without limiting the
generality of the other provisions of this Agreement, and without waiving or releasing Borrower from any of its obligations hereunder, Lender shall have the right, but shall be under no obligation, to pay any sums and to perform any act or take any
action as may be appropriate to cause all the terms, covenants and conditions of the Operating Lease on the part of Mortgage Borrower to be performed or observed to be promptly performed or observed on behalf of Operating Tenant, to the end that the
rights of Mortgage Borrower in, to and under the Operating Lease shall be kept unimpaired and free from default. Lender and any person designated by Lender shall have, and are hereby granted, the right to enter upon the Property at any time and from
time to time upon prior notice to Borrower and Mortgage Borrower and during business hours or such other reasonable times only, for the purpose of taking any such action. If the Operating Tenant under the Operating Lease shall deliver to Lender a
copy of any notice sent to Mortgage Borrower of default under the Operating Lease, such notice shall constitute full protection to Lender for any action taken or omitted to be taken by Lender in good faith, in reliance thereon. 
  
 (b) Subject to the terms of the Mortgage Loan Agreement,
Borrower and Operating Tenant hereby agree that any requirement of consent on behalf of Mortgage Borrower (as lessor) under the Operating Lease with respect to any proposed action thereunder shall also be subject to the prior written consent of
Lender. 
  

 - 86 - 








 (c) Borrower shall, or shall cause Mortgage Borrower to, promptly notify Lender of the
giving of any notice to Operating Tenant of any material default by Operating Tenant in the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of the Operating Lease on the part of Operating Tenant to be performed and observed
and deliver to Lender a true copy of each such notice. In addition, notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Borrower shall not, and shall not permit or cause Mortgage Borrower to, without the prior written consent of Lender and,

waive any material economic terms or any other material terms of the Operating Lease, (ii) exercise its right to consent to any assignment of the Operating Lease or sublet of the Property, or (iii) terminate, permit the termination of, or
accept surrender of all or any portion of the space demised under the Operating Lease other than (A) a termination in connection with a release of an Individual Property or a substitution of a Substitution Property, pursuant to and as defined
in Sections 2.5 and 2.6, respectively, hereof, and pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Agreement, or (B) a termination by Mortgage Borrower due to a payment default by the Operating Tenant under the Operating Lease. In the event that the Operating
Lease has been terminated as permitted in this Section 5.1.24(c), Borrower shall not, and shall not permit or cause Mortgage Borrower to, enter into any new operating lease (a “Replacement Operating Lease”) unless (1) the new
operating tenant is a single purpose bankruptcy remote entity satisfactory to Lender in its sole discretion, (2) the Property is managed by a Qualified Manager pursuant to the Management Agreement, (3) the terms and conditions of the new

 The parties acknowledge that the REIT is a publicly traded corporation qualified as a real estate investment trust under the Internal Revenue Code (a
“Real Estate Investment Trust”). Under the Internal Revenue Code rules and regulations relating to Real Estate Investment Trusts (the “REIT Rules”) and under Mortgage Borrower’s Organizational Documents, Borrower may not
take or omit to take any action, or engage in any business or business transaction or relationship, that would or could result in the REIT being disqualified from treatment as a Real Estate Investment Trust. In order to comply with the REIT Rules
and Mortgage Borrower’s Organizational Documents, Mortgage Borrower has entered into an Operating Lease with the Operating Tenant for the operation and maintenance of each of the Properties. Pursuant to such Operating Lease, Operating Tenant
has the right to operate each respective Individual Property, and directly or indirectly collects all income from room rentals, credit card receipts, restaurant bars, recreational facilities and from other sources relating to the Property. Operating
Tenant pays to Mortgage Borrower rent as more particularly described in the Operating Lease. The provisions of this Section shall not be construed to limit the provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any manner whatsoever.

  
 5.1.27 O&M Program. 
  
 With respect to each Individual Property listed on Schedule VII hereof,
Borrower shall cause Mortgage Borrower to have each such Individual Property tested for the presence of asbestos-containing materials (“ACMs”) by an assessment firm acceptable to Lender in all respects and if such assessment firm
recommends remediation of any ACM present at such Individual Property, Borrower shall cause Mortgage Borrower to enter into a contract with a licensed industrial hygienist to develop a fully documented O&M Program which Borrower shall submit
within ninety (90) days of the date hereof to Lender for its approval. Borrower further covenants and agrees to cause Mortgage Borrower to implement and follow the terms and conditions of such O&M Program during the term of the Loan,
including any extension or renewal thereof. Lender’s requirement that Borrower cause Mortgage Borrower to develop and 
  

 - 88 - 








 comply with the O&M Program shall not be deemed to constitute a waiver or modification of any of Borrower’s
covenants and agreements with respect to Hazardous Materials or Environmental Laws. 
  
 5.1.28 Mortgage Loan Reserve Funds. 
  
 Borrower shall cause Mortgage Borrower to deposit and maintain each of the Mortgage Loan Reserve Funds as more particularly set forth in Article VII of the Mortgage Loan Agreement and to perform and comply with all

material consents, material notices, material requests or other material written correspondence between Mortgage Borrower and Mortgage Lender with respect to any material matters. 
  
 Section 5.2 Negative Covenants.

contractors, provided (i) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (ii) such proceeding shall not violate the provisions of any other mortgage, deed of trust or deed to secure debt affecting the Individual Property,

the Individual Property nor any part thereof or interest therein will be in danger of being sold, forfeited, terminated, cancelled or lost as a result of such proceeding, (v) Borrower shall have deposited with Lender adequate reserves for the
payment of such amounts, together with all interest and penalties thereon, unless Borrower has paid all of such amounts under protest, and (vi) Borrower shall have furnished the security as may be required in such proceeding, to insure the

forfeited, terminated, cancelled or lost or there shall be an imminent danger of the Lien of the related Security Instrument being primed by any related Lien.

 (a) Borrower shall not enter into, or be a party to, any transaction with an Affiliate of Borrower, Principal or any of the partners of Borrower or Principal except in the ordinary course of business and on terms no less favorable to
Borrower or such Affiliate than would be obtained in a comparable arm’s-length transaction with an unrelated third party. 
  
 (b) Except in connection with payments made to Manager pursuant to and in accordance with the Subordination of Management Agreement, no
Loan Party shall pay, or permit the payment of, development fees, management fees, brokerage or leasing fees or commissions or any other compensation of any form whatsoever to any Loan Party or any direct or indirect partner, member, shareholder or

Agreement and the other Loan Documents or at law or in equity, and to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, Lender may take such action, without notice or demand, that Lender deems advisable to protect and enforce its rights against Borrower and
the Collateral and any Individual Property, including, without limitation, declaring the Debt to be immediately due and payable, and Lender may enforce or avail itself of any or all rights or remedies provided in the Loan Documents and any or all of
the Collateral and may exercise all the rights and remedies of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code against Borrower and any or all of the Collateral, including, without limitation, all rights or remedies available at law or in equity;
and upon the occurrence and continuance of any Event of Default described in clauses (vi) or (vii) above, the Debt 
  

 - 109 - 








 and all other obligations of Borrower hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall immediately and
automatically become due and payable, without notice or demand, and Borrower hereby expressly waives any such notice or demand, anything contained herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding. 
  
 Section 8.2 Remedies. 
  
 (a) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an
Event of Default, all or any one or more of the rights, powers, privileges and other remedies available to Lender against Borrower under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents executed and delivered by, or applicable to, Borrower or at
law or in equity may be exercised by Lender at any time and from time to time, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, whether or not all or any of the Debt shall be declared due and payable, and whether or not Lender shall have commenced any
foreclosure proceeding or other action for the enforcement of its rights and remedies under any of the Loan Documents with respect to the Collateral. Any such actions taken by Lender shall be cumulative and concurrent and may be pursued
independently, singly, successively, together or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Lender may determine in its sole discretion, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, without impairing or otherwise affecting the other rights
and remedies of Lender permitted by Applicable Law, equity or contract or as set forth herein or in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Borrower agrees that if an Event of Default is continuing, to the extent
permitted by Applicable Law, all Liens and other rights, remedies or privileges provided to Lender shall remain in full force and effect until Lender has exhausted all of its remedies against the Collateral and the Collateral has been foreclosed,
sold and/or otherwise realized upon in satisfaction of the Debt or the Debt has been paid in full. 
  
 (b) With respect to Borrower and the Collateral, nothing contained herein or in any other Loan Document shall be construed as requiring
Lender to resort to the Collateral for the satisfaction of any of the Debt in preference or priority, and Lender may seek satisfaction out of the Collateral or any other Collateral or any part thereof, in its absolute discretion in respect of the
Debt. In addition, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, Lender shall have the right from time to time to partially foreclose upon the Collateral in any manner and for any amounts secured by the Pledge Agreement then due and payable as
determined by Lender in its sole discretion including, without limitation, the following circumstances: (i) in the event Borrower defaults beyond any applicable grace period in the payment of one or more scheduled payments of principal and
interest, Lender may foreclose upon the Collateral to recover such delinquent payments, or (ii) in the event Lender elects to accelerate less than the entire outstanding principal balance of the Loan, Lender may foreclose upon the Collateral to
recover so much of the principal balance of the Loan as Lender may accelerate and such other sums secured by the Pledge Agreement as Lender may elect. Notwithstanding one or more partial foreclosures, the Collateral shall remain subject to the
Pledge Agreement to secure payment of sums secured by the Pledge Agreement and not previously recovered. 
  
 (c) Lender shall have the right, from time to time, to sever the Note and the other Loan Documents into one or more separate notes,
pledges and other security 
  

 - 110 - 








 documents (the “Severed Loan Documents”) in such denominations as Lender shall determine in its
sole discretion for purposes of evidencing and enforcing its rights and remedies provided hereunder. Borrower shall execute and deliver to Lender from time to time, promptly after the request of Lender, a severance agreement and such other documents
as Lender shall request in order to effect the severance described in the preceding sentence, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender. Borrower hereby absolutely and irrevocably appoints Lender as its true and lawful attorney,
coupled with an interest, in its name and stead to make and execute all documents necessary or desirable to effect the aforesaid severance, Borrower ratifying all that its said attorney shall do by virtue thereof; provided, however, Lender shall not
make or execute any such documents under such power until five (5) Business Days after notice has been given to Borrower by Lender of Lender’s intent to exercise its rights under such power. The Severed Loan Documents shall not contain any
representations, warranties or covenants not contained in the Loan Documents and any such representations and warranties contained in the Severed Loan Documents will be given by Borrower only as of the Closing Date. 
  
 (d) Any amounts recovered from the Collateral after an Event
of Default may be applied by Lender toward the payment of any interest and/or principal of the Loan and/or any other amounts due under the Loan Documents in such order, priority and proportions as Lender in its sole discretion shall determine.

  
 Section 8.3 Right to Cure Defaults.

  
 Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event
of Default, Lender may, but without any obligation to do so and without notice to or demand on Borrower and without releasing Borrower from any obligation hereunder, make any payment or do any act required of Borrower hereunder in such manner and to
such extent as Lender may deem necessary to protect the security hereof. Lender is authorized to enter upon the Property for such purposes, or appear in, defend, or bring any action or proceeding to protect its interest in the Property for such
purposes, and the cost and expense thereof (including reasonable attorneys’ fees to the extent permitted by law), with interest as provided in this Section 8.3, shall constitute a portion of the Debt and shall be due and payable to Lender
upon demand. All such costs and expenses paid by Lender in remedying such Event of Default or such failed payment or act or in appearing in, defending, or bringing any action or proceeding shall bear interest at the Default Rate, for the period
after notice from Lender that such cost or expense was incurred to the date of payment to Lender. All such costs and expenses paid by Lender together with interest thereon calculated at the Default Rate, as the case may be, shall be deemed to
constitute a portion of the Debt and be secured by the liens, claims and security interests provided to Lender under the Loan Documents and shall be immediately due and payable upon demand by Lender therefor. 
  
 Section 8.4 Remedies Cumulative; Waivers. 
  
 To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, the rights, powers and remedies
of Lender under this Agreement shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any other right, power or remedy which Lender may have against Borrower pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or existing at law or in equity or otherwise. To
the extent permitted by Applicable 
  

 - 111 - 








 Law, Lender’s rights, powers and remedies may be pursued singularly, concurrently or otherwise, at such time and in
such order as Lender may determine in Lender’s sole discretion. To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, 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 or more Defaults or Events of Default with respect to Borrower 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 8.5 Power of Attorney. 
  
 For the purpose of carrying out the provisions and exercising the rights, powers and privileges granted in this Section 8, Borrower hereby
irrevocably appoints the Lender as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact to execute, acknowledge and deliver any instruments and do and perform any acts such as are referred to in this subsection in the name and on behalf of Borrower. This power of
attorney is a power coupled with an interest and cannot be revoked. 
  
 IX. SPECIAL PROVISIONS 
  
 Section 9.1 Sale of Notes and Securitization 
  
 Lender may, at any time, sell, transfer, pledge or assign the Note, this Agreement, the Pledge Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and any or all servicing rights with respect thereto, or grant participations
therein or issue mortgage pass-through certificates or other securities (the “Securities”) evidencing a beneficial interest in a rated or unrated public offering or private placement (a “Securitization”). At the request of the
holder of the Note and, to the extent not already required to be provided by Borrower under this Agreement, Borrower shall cooperate with Lender to satisfy the market standards to which the holder of the Note customarily adheres or which may be
reasonably required in the marketplace or by the Rating Agencies in connection with a Securitization or the sale of the Note or the participations or Securities, including, without limitation, to: 
  
 (a) (i) provide such financial and other information
with respect to the Collateral, the Properties, Borrower, Mortgage Borrower, Guarantor, the REIT, Operating Tenant, and the Manager, (ii) provide budgets relating to the Properties and (iii) to perform or permit or cause to be performed or

requested by the holder of the Note or the Rating Agencies or as may be necessary or appropriate in connection with the Securitization (the “Provided Information”), together, if customary, with appropriate verification and/or consents of
the Provided Information through letters of auditors or opinions of counsel of independent attorneys acceptable to Lender and the Rating Agencies; 
  
 (b) if required by the Rating Agencies, deliver (i) a revised Insolvency Opinion, (ii) revised opinions of counsel as to due
execution and enforceability with 
  

 - 112 - 








 respect to the Collateral, Borrower, Guarantor, Principal, and Operating Tenant and the Loan
Documents, and (iii) revised organizational documents for Borrower, Guarantor, and Principal, and Operating Tenant (including, without limitation, such revisions as are necessary to comply with the provisions of Section 4.1.36 hereof),
which counsel, opinions and organizational documents shall be reasonably satisfactory to Lender and the Rating Agencies; 
  
 (c) execute such amendments to the Loan Documents and organizational documents as may be requested by the holder of the Note or the Rating
Agencies or otherwise to effect the Securitization; provided, however, that Borrower shall not be required to modify or amend any Loan Document if such modification or amendment would (except for modifications and amendments required to be made
pursuant to Section (e) and (f) below), (i) change the interest rate, the stated maturity or the amortization of principal set forth in the Note, or (ii) modify or amend any other material term of the Loan; 
  
 (d) if Lender elects, in its sole discretion, prior to or
upon a Securitization, to split the Loan into two or more parts, or the Note into multiple component notes or tranches which may have different interest rates, amortization payments, principal amounts, payment priorities, and maturities, Borrower
agrees to cooperate with Lender in connection with the foregoing and to execute the required modifications and amendments to the Note, this Agreement and the Loan Documents and to provide opinions necessary to effectuate the same. Such Notes or
components may be assigned different interest rates, so long as the initial weighted average of such interest rates does not exceed the Applicable Interest Rate and the scheduled amortization payments do not exceed the Scheduled Amortization
Payment; 
  
 (e) execute modifications to the
Loan Documents changing the interest rate and/or the amortization payments for the Loan and the Mezzanine Loan, provided that the initial weighted average of the interest rate spreads for the Loan and the Mezzanine Loan after such modification shall
not exceed the weighted average of the interest rate spreads for the Loan and the Mezzanine Loan immediately prior to such modification and the scheduled amortization payments after such modification will not exceed the Scheduled Amortization
Payments, if any, due under the Loan Agreement and the Mezzanine Loan Agreement immediately prior to such modification and the scheduled amortization payments after such modification will not exceed the Scheduled Amortization Payments due under the
Loan Agreement and Mezzanine Loan Agreement immediately prior to such modification. The Borrower shall also provide opinions and title insurance reasonably necessary to effectuate the same; and 
  
 (f) make such representations and warranties as of the
closing date of the Securitization with respect to the Collateral, the Properties, Borrower, Mortgage Borrower, Principal, Operating Tenant, Guarantor, and the Loan Documents as are customarily provided in securitization transactions and as may be
reasonably requested by the holder of the Note or the Rating Agencies and consistent with the facts covered by such representations and warranties as they exist on the date thereof, including the representations and warranties made in the Loan
Documents. 
  

 - 113 - 








 All third party costs and expenses and out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Lender in connection with this
Section 9.1 and the Securitization shall be paid by Lender (except as otherwise expressly set forth herein). These shall include, but not be limited to, fees and disbursements of legal counsel, accountants, and other professionals retained by
Lender and fees and expenses incurred for producing any offering documents or any other materials (including travel by Lender and its agents, design, printing, photograph and documents production costs). Solely for the purposes of this
Section 9.1, Lender shall reimburse Borrower for all of its reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including the reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses of Borrower’s counsel in excess of $25,000 (it being understood that Borrower
shall be responsible for paying up to $25,000 of such costs, fees and expenses), that Borrower incurs in connection with complying with a request made by Lender under this Section 9.1 in connection with a Securitization. Upon Lender’s
request, Borrower shall deliver to Lender such evidence required by Lender demonstrating that Borrower has incurred such out-of-pocket costs, fees and expenses, including, delivery of bills and invoices reflecting such fees, costs and expenses.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of this paragraph shall in no way limit or affect any Borrower obligation to pay any costs expressly required to be paid by Borrower pursuant to any other Sections of this Agreement. 
  
 Section 9.2 Securitization Indemnification. 
  
 (a) Borrower and Guarantor understand that certain of the
Provided Information may be included in disclosure documents in connection with the Securitization, including, without limitation, a prospectus supplement, private placement memorandum, offering circular or other offering document (each a
“Disclosure Document”) and may also be included in filings (an “Exchange Act Filing”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or the
Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or provided or made available to Investors or prospective Investors in the Securities, the Rating Agencies, and service providers relating to the Securitization. In the
event that the Disclosure Document is required to be revised prior to the sale of all Securities, Borrower and Guarantor will cooperate with the holder of the Note in updating the Disclosure Document by providing all current information necessary to
keep the Disclosure Document accurate and complete in all material respects with respect to Borrower, Guarantor, the Property and the Operating Tenant. 
  
 (b) Borrower and Guarantor agree to provide in connection with each of (i) a preliminary and a final private placement memorandum or
(ii) a preliminary and final prospectus or prospectus supplement, as applicable, or (iii) collateral and structured term sheets or similar materials, an indemnification certificate (A) certifying that Borrower has carefully examined
such memorandum or prospectus or term sheets, as applicable, solely with respect to the factual contents thereof related to the Loan, the Borrower, the Guarantor, the Operating Tenant, the REIT, the Manager, the Franchisor, the Property, the
Collateral and the Provided Information and such sections (and any other sections reasonably requested) do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements made, in the
light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, (B) indemnifying Lender (and for purposes of this Section 9.2, Lender hereunder shall include its officers and 
  

 - 114 - 








 directors), the Affiliate of Lehman Brothers Inc. (“Lehman”) that has filed the registration
statement relating to the Securitization (the “Registration Statement”), each of its directors, each of its officers who have signed the Registration Statement and each Person who controls the Affiliate within the meaning of
Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (collectively, the “Lehman Group”), and Lehman, each of its directors and each Person who controls Lehman within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities
Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act (collectively, the “Underwriter Group”) for any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (collectively, the “Liabilities”) to which Lender, the Lehman Group or the Underwriter Group may
become subject insofar as the Liabilities arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in such sections described in clause (A) above (but solely with respect to the factual
contents thereof relating to the Loan, the Borrower, the Guarantor, the Operating Tenant, the REIT, the Manager, the Franchisor, the Property, the Collateral and the Provided Information), or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged
omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated in such sections or necessary in order to make the statements in such sections or in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading and (C) agreeing to
reimburse Lender, the Lehman Group and the Underwriter Group for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by Lender the Lehman Group and the Underwriter Group in connection with investigating or defending the Liabilities; provided, however,
that Borrower will be liable in any such case under clauses (B) or (C) above only to the extent that any such Liability arises out of or is based upon any such untrue statement or omission made therein in reliance upon and in conformity
with information furnished to Lender by or on behalf of Borrower in connection with the preparation of the memorandum or prospectus or in connection with the underwriting of the debt, including, without limitation, financial statements of Borrower,
operating statements, rent rolls, environmental site assessment reports and property condition reports with respect to the Property. This indemnification will be in addition to any liability which Borrower may otherwise have. Moreover, the
indemnification provided for in clauses (B) and (C) above shall be effective whether or not an indemnification certificate described in (A) above is provided and shall be applicable based on information previously provided by Borrower
or its Affiliates if Borrower does not provide the indemnification certificate. 
  
 (c) In connection with filings under the Exchange Act, Borrower and Guarantor agree to indemnify (i) Lender, the Lehman Group and the
Underwriter Group for Liabilities to which Lender, the Lehman Group or the Underwriter Group may become subject insofar as the Liabilities arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state in the Provided Information a
material fact required to be stated in the Provided Information in order to make the statements in the Provided Information, in light of the circumstances under which they were made not misleading and (ii) reimburse Lender, the Lehman Group or
the Underwriter Group for any reasonable legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by Lender, the Lehman Group or the Underwriter Group in connection with defending or investigating the Liabilities. 
  
 (d) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under
this Section 9.2 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in 
  

 - 115 - 








 respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 9.2, notify the
indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof, but the omission to so notify the indemnifying party will not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability which the indemnifying party may have to any indemnified party hereunder
except to the extent that failure to notify causes prejudice to the indemnifying party. In the event that any action is brought against any indemnified party, and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party
will be entitled, jointly with any other indemnifying party, to participate therein and, to the extent that it (or they) may elect by written notice delivered to the indemnified party promptly after receiving the aforesaid notice from such
indemnified party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party. The indemnifying party’s legal counsel shall control the defense of such action, except that no settlement or compromise shall be accepted or
entered into which would bind any indemnified party unless such indemnified party has given its prior written consent thereto, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld. After notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party under
this Section 9.2 the indemnifying party shall not be responsible for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided,
however, if the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there are any legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties
that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to assert such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such
action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one such separate counsel unless an indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses
available to it that are different from or additional to those available to another indemnified party. Prior to the occurrence and the continuance of an Event of Default, in the event that any indemnified party wishes to enter into a settlement
agreement in connection with such action which would give rise to an indemnified obligation of the indemnifying party hereunder and such indemnifying party does not consent to such settlement agreement, such indemnified party agrees not to enter
into such settlement agreement provided the indemnifying party delivers evidence reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party that the indemnifying party shall be able to satisfy its indemnification obligations under this Section in the event a
judgment is rendered against the indemnifying party with respect to such action. In such event, the indemnifying party shall pay or, at the indemnified party’s option, reimburse it for the reasonable fees and expenses of its legal counsel and
other professionals. 
  
 (e) In order to provide
for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which the indemnifications provided for in Section 9.2(b) or (c) is or are for any reason held to be unenforceable by an indemnified party in respect of any Liabilities (or action in
respect thereof) referred to therein which would otherwise be indemnifiable under Section 9.2(b) or (c), the indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such Liabilities (or action
in respect thereof); provided, however, that no Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from 
  

 - 116 - 








 any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. In determining the amount of
contribution to which the respective parties are entitled, the following factors shall be considered: (i) Lehman’s and Borrower’s relative knowledge and access to information concerning the matter with respect to which claim was
asserted; (ii) the opportunity to correct and prevent any statement or omission; and (iii) any other equitable considerations appropriate in the circumstances. Lender, Borrower, and Guarantor hereby agree that it would not be
equitable if the amount of such contribution were determined solely by pro rata or per capita allocation. 
  
 (f) The liabilities and obligations of Borrower, Guarantor and Lender under this Section 9.2 shall survive the termination of this
Agreement and the satisfaction and discharge of the Debt. 
  
 Section 9.3 Servicer. 
  
 At the
option of Lender or Agent, and at the Lender’s or Agent’s expense, the Loan may be serviced by a servicer/trustee (the “Servicer”) selected by Lender or Agent and Lender or Agent may delegate all or any portion of its
responsibilities under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to the Servicer pursuant to a servicing agreement (the “Servicing Agreement”) between Lender or Agent and Servicer. 
  
 Section 9.4 Exculpation. 
  
 (a) Except as otherwise provided herein, in the Pledge
Agreement or in the other Loan Documents, Lender shall not enforce the liability and obligation of Borrower to perform and observe the obligations contained in this Agreement, the Note or the Pledge Agreement by any action or proceeding wherein a
money judgment shall be sought against Borrower, except that Lender may bring a foreclosure action, action for specific performance or other appropriate action or proceeding to enable Lender to enforce and realize upon this Agreement, the Note, the
Pledge Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and the Collateral, and any other collateral given to Lender created by this Agreement, the Note, the Pledge Agreement and the other Loan Documents; provided, however, that any judgment in any such action

or the other Loan Documents; (ii) impair the right of Lender to name Borrower as a party defendant in any action or suit for judicial foreclosure and sale under the Pledge Agreement; (iii) affect the validity or enforceability of any

against the Collateral or (B) obtain any Insurance Proceeds or Awards to which Lender would otherwise be entitled under the terms of this Agreement or the Pledge Agreement; provided however, Lender shall only enforce such judgment to the extent
of the Insurance Proceeds and/or Awards. 
  
 (b)
Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 9.4 to the contrary, Borrower shall be personally liable to Lender for the Losses it incurs due to: (i) fraud or intentional misrepresentation in connection with the execution and the delivery
of this Agreement, the Note, the Pledge Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any Mortgage Loan Documents; (ii) Borrower’s or Mortgage Borrower’s misappropriation or intentional misapplication of Rents received by Borrower or

(xi) Borrower’s or Principal’s default under Section 4.1.36 hereof; or (xii) Operating Tenant’s or Principal’s (as defined in the Subordination Agreement) default under Section 11 of the Subordination
Agreement. 
  
 (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the agreement of Lender not to pursue recourse liability as set forth in Subsection (a) above SHALL BECOME NULL AND VOID and shall be of no further force and effect (i) in the event of Borrower’s default under Section5.2.10 hereof or
Article 7 of the Security Instruments, (ii) if any Individual 
  

 - 118 - 








 Property, the Collateral or any part thereof shall become an asset in (A) a voluntary bankruptcy or
insolvency proceeding or (B) an involuntary bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding commenced by any Person (other than Lender) and Borrower or Mortgage Borrower, as applicable, fails to use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a dismissal
of such proceedings. 
  
 (d) Nothing herein shall
be deemed to be a waiver of any right which Lender may have under Section 506(a), 506(b), 1111(b) or any other provision of the Bankruptcy Code to file a claim for the full amount of the indebtedness secured by the Pledge Agreement or to
require that all collateral shall continue to secure all of the indebtedness owing to Lender in accordance with this Agreement, the Note, the Pledge Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 
  
 Section 9.5 Reserved. 
  
 Section 9.6 Reserved. 
  
 Section 9.7 Syndication 
  
 9.7.1 Syndication. 
  
 The provisions of this Section 9.7 shall only apply in the event that
the Loan is syndicated in accordance with the provisions of this Section 9.7 set forth below. 
  
 9.7.2 Sale of Loan, Co-Lenders, Participations and Servicing. 
  
 (a) Lender and any Co-Lender may, at their option, without Borrower’s consent (but with notice to
Borrower), sell with novation all or any part of their right, title and interest in, and to, and under the Loan (the “Syndication”), to one or more additional lenders (each a “Co-Lender”). Each additional Co-Lender shall enter
into an assignment and assumption agreement (the “Assignment and Assumption”) assigning a portion of Lender’s or Co-Lender’s rights and obligations under the Loan, and pursuant to which the additional Co-Lender accepts such
assignment and assumes the assigned obligations (a “Pro Rata Share of the Loan”). From and after the effective date specified in the Assignment and Assumption (i) each Co-Lender shall be a party hereto and to each Loan Document to the
extent of the applicable percentage or percentages set forth in the Assignment and Assumption and, except as specified otherwise herein, shall succeed to the rights and obligations of Lender and the Co-Lenders hereunder and thereunder in respect of
the Loan, and (ii) Lender, as lender and each Co-Lender, as applicable, shall, to the extent such rights and obligations have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Assumption, relinquish its rights and be released from its
obligations hereunder and under the Loan Documents. 
  
 (b) The liabilities of Lender and each of the Co-Lenders shall be several and not joint, and Lender’s and each Co-Lender’s obligations to Borrower under this Agreement shall be reduced by the amount of each such Assignment and
Assumption. Neither Lender nor any Co-Lender shall be responsible for the obligations of any other Co-Lender. Lender and each Co-Lender shall be liable to Borrower only for their 
  

 - 119 - 








 respective proportionate shares of the Loan. If for any reason any of the Co-Lenders shall fail or refuse
to abide by their obligations under this Agreement, Lender and the other Co-Lenders shall not be relieved of their obligations, if any, hereunder, including their obligations to make their pro rata share of any advance; notwithstanding the
foregoing, Lender and the Co-Lenders shall have the right, but not the obligation, at their sole option, to make the defaulting Co- Lender’s pro rata share of such advance pursuant to the Co-Lending Agreement. 
  
 (c) Borrower agrees that it shall, in connection with any
sale of all or any portion of the Loan, whether in whole or to an additional Co-Lender or Participant, within ten (10) Business Days after requested by Agent, furnish Agent with the certificates required under Sections 5.1.10 and 5.1.13 hereof
and such other information as reasonably requested by any additional Co-Lender or Participant in performing its due diligence in connection with its purchase of an interest in the Loan. 
  
 (d) Lender (or an Affiliate of Lender) shall act as administrative agent for itself and the Co-Lenders
(together with any successor administrative agent, the “Agent”) pursuant to this Section 9.7. Borrower acknowledges that Lender, as Agent, shall have the sole and exclusive authority to execute and perform this Agreement and each Loan
Document on behalf of itself, as Lender and as agent for itself and the Co-Lenders subject to the terms of the Co-Lending Agreement. Lender acknowledges that Lender, as Agent, shall retain the exclusive right to grant approvals and give consents
with respect to the operating budgets required to be delivered hereunder and with respect to matters concerning the establishment and administration of the Lockbox Account and the other Accounts. Except as otherwise provided herein, Borrower shall
have no obligation to recognize or deal directly with any Co-Lender, and no Co-Lender shall have any right to deal directly with Borrower with respect to the rights, benefits and obligations of Borrower under this Agreement, the Loan Documents or
any one or more documents or instruments in respect thereof. Borrower may rely conclusively on the actions of Lender as Agent to bind Lender and the Co-Lenders, notwithstanding that the particular action in question may, pursuant to this Agreement
or the Co-Lending Agreement be subject to the consent or direction of some or all of the Co-Lenders. Lender may resign as Agent of the Co-Lenders, in its sole discretion, or if required to by the Co-Lenders in accordance with the term of the
Co-Lending Agreement, in each case without the consent of Borrower. Upon any such resignation, a successor Agent shall be determined pursuant to the terms of the Co-Lending Agreement. The term Agent shall mean any successor Agent. 
  
 (e) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this
Agreement, the Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth herein (and in the Co-Lending Agreement) and no covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities of Agent shall be implied
by or inferred from this Agreement, the Co-Lending Agreement, or any other Loan Document, or otherwise exist against Agent. 
  
 (f) Except to the extent its obligations hereunder and its interest in the Loan have been assigned pursuant to one or more Assignments and
Assumption, Lender, as Agent, shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Co-Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not Agent, respectively. The term 
  

 - 120 - 








 “Co-Lender” or “Co-Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include
Lender in its individual capacity. Lender and the other Co-Lenders and their respective Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as trustee under indentures of, and generally engage in any kind of business with, Borrower, or any
Affiliate of Borrower and any Person who may do business with or own securities of Borrower or any Affiliate of Borrower, all as if they were not serving in such capacities hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to each other.

  
 (g) If required by any Co-Lender, each
Borrower hereby agrees to execute supplemental notes in the principal amount of such Co-Lender’s pro rata share of the Loan substantially in the form of the Note, and such supplemental note shall (i) be payable to order of such Co-Lender,
(ii) be dated as of the Closing Date, and (iii) mature on the Maturity Date. Such supplemental note shall provide that it evidences a portion of the existing indebtedness hereunder and under the Note and not any new or additional
indebtedness of Borrower. The term “Note” as used in this Agreement and in all the other Loan Documents shall include all such supplemental notes. 
  
 (h) Lender, as Agent, shall maintain at its domestic lending office or at such other location as Lender, as Agent, shall designate in
writing to each Co-Lender and Borrower a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to and accepted by it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Co-Lenders, the amount of each Co-Lender’s proportionate share
of the Loan and the name and address of each Co-Lender’s agent for service of process (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and Borrower, Lender, as
Agent, and the Co-Lenders may treat each person or entity whose name is recorded in the Register as a Co-Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection and copying by Borrower or any Co-Lender
during normal business hours upon reasonable prior notice to the Agent. A Co-Lender may change its address and its agent for service of process upon written notice to Lender, as Agent, which notice shall only be effective upon actual receipt by
Lender, as Agent, which receipt will be acknowledged by Lender, as Agent, upon request. 
  
 (i) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any financial institution or other entity may be sold a participation interest in the
Loan by Lender or any Co-Lender without Borrower’s consent (such financial institution or entity, a “Participant”) (x) if such sale is without novation and (y) if the other conditions set forth in this paragraph are met. No
Participant shall be considered a Co-Lender hereunder or under the Note or the Loan Documents. No Participant shall have any rights under this Agreement, the Note or any of the Loan Documents and the Participant’s rights in respect of such
participation shall be solely against Lender or Co-Lender, as the case may be, as set forth in the participation agreement executed by and between Lender or Co-Lender, as the case may be, and such Participant. No participation shall relieve Lender
or Co-Lender, as the case may be, from its obligations hereunder or under the Note or the Loan Documents and Lender or Co- Lender, as the case may be, shall remain solely responsible for the performance of its obligations hereunder. 
  

 - 121 - 








 (j) Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this Agreement, Lender or any
Co-Lender may at any time create a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including, without limitation, amounts owing to it in favor of any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with Regulation A of the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve System), provided that no such security interest or the exercise by the secured party of any of its rights thereunder shall release Lender or Co-Lender from its funding obligations hereunder. 
  
 9.7.3 Cooperation in Syndication. 
  
 (a) Borrower and Guarantor agree to assist Lender in
completing a Syndication satisfactory to Lender. Such assistance shall include (i) direct contact between senior management and advisors of Borrower and the proposed Co-Lenders, (ii) assistance in the preparation of a confidential
information memorandum and other marketing materials to be used in connection with the Syndication, (iii) the hosting, with Lender, of one or more meetings of prospective Co-Lenders or with the Rating Agencies, (iv) the delivery of
appraisals satisfactory to Lender if required, and (v) working with Lender to procure a rating for the Loan by the Rating Agencies. 
  
 (b) Lender shall manage all aspects of the Syndication of the Loan, including decisions as to the selection of institutions to be
approached and when they will be approached, when their commitments will be accepted, which institutions will participate, the allocations of the commitments among the Co-Lenders and the amount and distribution of fees among the Co-Lenders. To
assist Lender in its Syndication efforts, Borrower and Guarantor agree promptly to prepare and provide to Lender all information with respect to Borrower, Manager, Guarantor, Principal, Operating Tenant and the Properties contemplated hereby,
including all financial information and projections (the “Projections”), as Lender may reasonably request in connection with the Syndication of the Loan. Borrower hereby represents and covenants that (i) all information other than the
Projections (the “Information”) that has been or will be made available to Lender by Borrower or any of their representatives is or will be, when furnished, complete and correct in all material respects and does not or will not, when
furnished, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein not materially misleading in light of the circumstances under which such statements are made and
(ii) the Projections that have been or will be made available to Lender by Borrower or any of their representatives have been or will be prepared in good faith based upon reasonable assumptions. Borrower understands that in arranging and
syndicating the Loan, Lender, the Co-Lenders and, if applicable, the Rating Agencies, may use and rely on the Information and Projections without independent verification thereof. 
  
 (c) If required in connection with the Syndication, Borrower and Guarantor hereby agrees to: 
  
 (i) amend the Loan Documents to give Lender the right, at
Borrower’s sole cost and expense, to have one or more of the Properties reappraised on an annual basis; 
  

 - 122 - 








 (ii) deliver updated financial and operating statements and other information reasonably
required by Lender to facilitate the Syndication; 
  
 (iii) deliver reliance letters reasonably satisfactory to Lender with respect to the environmental assessments and reports delivered to Lender prior to the Closing Date, which will run to Lender and its successors and assigns; and

  
 (iv) execute modifications to the Loan
Documents required by the Co- Lenders, provided that such modification will not (except as set forth in (v) and (vi) below) change any material or economic terms of the Loan Documents, or otherwise materially increase the obligations or
materially decrease the rights of Borrower pursuant to the Loan Documents; 
  
 (v) if Lender elects, in its sole discretion, prior to or upon a Syndication, to split the Loan into two or more parts, or the Note into multiple component notes or tranches which may have different interest rates,
principal amounts, payment priorities, and maturities, Borrower agrees to cooperate with Lender in connection with the foregoing and to execute the required modifications and amendments to the Note, this Agreement and the Loan Documents and to
provide opinions necessary to effectuate the same. Such Notes or components may be assigned different interest rates, so long as the initial weighted average of such interest rates does not exceed the Applicable Interest Rate; and 
  
 (vi) execute modifications to the Loan Documents changing
the interest rate for the Loan and the Mortgage Loan, provided that the initial weighted average of the interest rate spreads for the Loan and the Mortgage Loan after such modification shall not exceed the weighted average of the interest rate
spreads for the Loan and the Mortgage Loan immediately prior to such modification and the scheduled amortization payments after such modification will not exceed the Scheduled Amortization Payments due under the Loan Agreement and Mezzanine Loan
Agreement immediately prior to such modification. The Borrower shall also provide opinions and title insurance reasonably necessary to effectuate the same. 
  
 All third party costs and expenses and out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Lender in connection with this Section 9.7.3 and the Syndication shall be
paid by Lender (except as otherwise expressly set forth herein). These shall include, but not be limited to, fees and disbursements of legal counsel, accountants, and other professionals retained by Lender and fees and expenses incurred for
producing any offering documents or any other materials (including travel by Lender and its agents, design, printing, photograph and documents production costs). Solely for the purposes of this Section 9.7.3, Lender shall reimburse Borrower for
all of its reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including the reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses of Borrower’s counsel in excess of $25,000 (it being understood that Borrower shall be responsible for paying up to $25,000 of such
costs, fees and expenses), that Borrower incurs in connection with complying with a request made by Lender under this Section 9.7.3 in connection with a Securitization. Upon Lender’s request, Borrower shall deliver to Lender such evidence
required by Lender demonstrating that Borrower has incurred such out-of-pocket costs, fees and expenses, including, delivery of bills and invoices reflecting such fees, costs and expenses. 
  

 - 123 - 








 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of this paragraph shall in no way limit or affect any Borrower obligation
to pay any costs expressly required to be paid by Borrower pursuant to any other Sections of this Agreement. 
  
 9.7.4 Payment of Agent’s, and Co-Lender’s Expenses, Indemnity, etc. Borrower and Guarantor shall: 
  
 (a) whether or not the transactions contemplated in this
Section 9.7 are consummated, pay all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (A) of Agent’s counsel fees and expenses relating to the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of the Note, this Agreement, the Pledge
Agreement, and the other Loan Documents and the documents and instruments referred to therein, the creation, perfection or protection of Lender’s and Co-Lender’s liens on the Properties (including, without limitation, fees and expenses for
title insurance, property inspections, appraisals, if required for Syndication, surveys, lien searches, filing and recording fees, and escrow fees and expenses), and any amendment, waiver or consent relating to any of the Loan Documents including

the Loan Documents and the documents and instruments referred to therein or in connection with any restructuring or rescheduling of the Obligations (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for Agent and the
Co-Lenders); 
  
 (b) pay, and hold Agent and each
Co-Lender harmless from and against, any and all present and future stamp, excise and other similar taxes with respect to the foregoing matters and hold Agent and each Co-Lender harmless from and against any and all liabilities with respect to or
resulting from any delay or omission (other than to the extent attributable to Agent or such Co-Lender) to pay such taxes; and 
  
 (c) indemnify Agent, (in its capacity as Lender and as Agent), and each Co- Lender, its officers, directors, employees, representatives
and agents and any persons or entities owned or Controlled by, owning or Controlling, or under common Control or Affiliated with Agent, Agent, or each Co-Lender (each an “Indemnitee”) from, and hold each of them harmless against, any and
all losses, liabilities, claims, damages, expenses, obligations, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for such
Indemnitee in connection with any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding commenced or threatened, whether or not such Indemnitee shall be designated a party thereto) that may at any time (including, without limitation, at any time
following the payment of the Obligations) be imposed on, asserted against or incurred by any Indemnitee as a result of, or arising in any manner out of, or in any way related to or by reason of, (i) the execution, delivery or performance of any
Loan Document by Borrower, (ii) the breach of any of Borrower’s representations and warranties or of any of Borrower’s Obligations, (iii) a default under Section 5.2.8 hereof, including, without limitation, reasonable
attorneys’ fees and costs incurred in the investigation, defense, and settlement of losses incurred in correcting any prohibited transaction or in the sale of a prohibited loan, and in obtaining any individual prohibited

 transaction exemption under ERISA, the Code, any State statute or other similar law that may be required,
and (iv) the exercise by Agent and the Co-Lenders of their rights and remedies (including, without limitation, foreclosure) under any Loan Documents, but excluding, as to any Indemnitee, any such losses, liabilities, claims, damages, expenses,
obligations, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs or disbursements incurred solely by reason of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction (collectively,
“Indemnified Liabilities”). Borrower and Guarantor further agree that, without Agent’s or the Co-Lenders’ prior written consent, it will not enter into any settlement of a lawsuit, claim or other proceeding arising or relating to
any Indemnified Liability unless such settlement includes an explicit and unconditional release from the party bringing such lawsuit, claim or other proceeding of each Indemnitee. Borrower’s and Guarantor’s obligations under this
Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Obligations. Borrower and Guarantor shall have the right to undertake, conduct and control through counsel of its own choosing (which counsel shall be acceptable to the
Indemnitee acting reasonably), the conduct and settlement of the Indemnified Liabilities, and the Indemnitee shall cooperate with Borrower and Guarantor in connection therewith; provided that Borrower and Guarantor shall permit the Indemnitee to
participate in such conduct and settlement through counsel chosen by the Indemnitee, but reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel shall be borne by the Indemnitee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnitee shall have the right to employ its
own counsel, and the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at Borrower’s and Guarantor’s cost and expense if the Indemnitee reasonably determines that (i) Borrower’s and Guarantor’s counsel is not adequately
defending any claim or proceeding in a manner reasonably acceptable to Indemnitee or (ii) the interests of Borrower and Guarantor and the Indemnitee have become adverse in any such claim or course of action; provided, however Borrower, in such
event, shall only be liable for the reasonable legal expenses of one counsel for all such Indemnitees. None of Borrower, Guarantor or any Indemnitee shall be liable for any settlement of any Indemnified Liability effected without its prior
written consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld. No Indemnitee shall be liable for any indirect or consequential damages in connection with its activities related to the Loan, the Securitization or the Syndication. 
  
 9.7.5 Limitation of Liability. 
  
 No claim may be made by Borrower, or any other Person against Agent, or any
Co-Lenders or the Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, attorneys or agent of any of such Persons for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages in respect of any claim for breach of contract or any other theory of liability
arising out of or related to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any act, omission or event occurring in connection therewith; and Borrower hereby waives, releases and agrees not to sue upon any claim for any such damages, whether or
not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor. 
  

 - 125 - 








 9.7.6 No Joint Venture. 
  
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein contained, neither Agent, nor any Co-Lender by entering into this Agreement
or by taking any action pursuant hereto, will be deemed a partner or joint venturer with Borrower.

 Borrower acknowledges that the Co-Lending Agreement may contain provisions which require that amendments, waivers, extensions, modifications, and other
decisions with respect to the Loan Documents shall require the approval of all or a number of the Co-Lenders holding in the aggregate a specified percentage of the Loan or any one or more Co-Lenders that are specifically affected by such amendment,
waiver, extension, modification or other decision. 
  
 Section 9.8 Reallocation of Loan Amounts. 
  
 In the event Mortgage Lender exercises its right to reallocate the amount of the Loan and the Mortgage Loan pursuant to Section 9.8 of the Mortgage Loan Agreement, Borrower agrees to cooperate to facilitate such reallocation provided
that (i) the aggregate principal amount of the Loan and the Mortgage Loan immediately following such reallocation shall equal the outstanding principal balance of the Loan and the Mortgage Loan and immediately prior to such reallocation,
(ii) the aggregate Scheduled Amortization Payments immediately following such reallocation shall not exceed the aggregate Scheduled Amortization Payments immediately prior to the reallocation, and (iii) the weighted average interest rate
of the Note and the Mortgage Note immediately following such reallocation shall equal the initial weighted average interest rate which was applicable to the Note and the Mortgage Note immediately prior to such reallocation and (iii) Lender has
agreed to the allocation as required by the Mortgage Lender. Borrower shall cooperate with all reasonable requests of Lender in order to reallocate the amount of the Loan and the Mortgage Loan and shall execute and deliver such documents as shall
reasonably be required by Lender in connection therewith, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender. Lender shall pay all costs and expenses in connection such reallocation pursuant to this Section 9.8, except that Borrower
shall pay the costs and expenses of its legal counsel and the costs of any additional title insurance and UCC insurance premiums and any additional mortgage, mortgage recording, stamp, intangible or other similar tax required to be paid by any
Person under applicable Legal Requirements currently in effect in connection with the execution, delivery, recordation, filing, registration, perfection or enforcement of any amendments of the Loan Documents or the Mezzanine Loan Documents in
connection with the reallocation. It shall be an Event of Default under this Agreement, the Note, the Pledge Agreement and the other Loan Documents if Borrower fails to comply with any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Section 9.8
after expiration of ten (10) Business Days after notice thereof. 
  
 Section 9.9 Certain Additional Rights to Lender. 
  
 Subject to the terms hereof, Lender shall have the right: 
  
 (a) to routinely consult with Borrower’s management regarding the significant business activities and business and financial
developments of Borrower; provided, however, that such consultations shall not include discussions of environmental compliance programs or disposal of hazardous substances. Routine consultation

 meetings may occur no more frequently than quarterly, with Lender having the right to call special
meetings at any reasonable time (but not more frequently than once per quarter) and upon reasonable advance notice. Borrower shall have no obligation to adhere to any advice proposed by Lender, except as the same may be otherwise specifically
required elsewhere in the Loan Documents; 
  
 (b)
in accordance with but subject to the terms of this Agreement, to examine the books and records of Borrower at any reasonable times upon reasonable notice; 
  
 (c) in accordance with but subject to the terms of this Agreement, to receive financial reports and other statements as provided in

or member of Borrower or a third-party beneficiary of Borrower’s Organizational Documents.

obligation, to the extent necessary to remediate such Mortgage Loan Event of Default: (i) to pay all or any part of the Mortgage Loan, and any other sums, that are then due and payable and to perform any act or take any action on behalf of
Mortgage Borrower, as may be appropriate, to cause all of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Mortgage Loan Documents on the part of Mortgage Borrower to be performed or observed thereunder to be promptly performed or observed; and
(ii) to pay any other amounts and take any other action as Lender, in its sole and absolute discretion, shall deem advisable to protect or preserve the rights and interests of Lender in the Loan and/or the Collateral. Lender shall have no
obligation to complete any cure or attempted cure undertaken or commenced by Lender. All sums so paid and the costs and expenses incurred by Lender in exercising rights under this Section (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’
and other professional fees), with 
  

 - 127 - 








 interest at the Default Rate, for the period from the date of demand by Lender to Borrower for such
payments to the date of payment to Lender, shall constitute a portion of the Debt, shall be secured by the Pledge Agreement and shall be due and payable to Lender within two Business Days following demand therefor. 
  
 (b) Subject to the rights of tenants and the Operating
Tenant, Borrower hereby grants, and shall cause Mortgage Borrower to grant, Lender and any Person designated by Lender the right to enter upon the Property at any time for the purpose of carrying out the rights granted to Lender under this
Section 9.10. Borrower shall not, and shall not cause or permit Mortgage Borrower or any other Person to impede, interfere with, hinder or delay, any effort or action on the part of Lender to cure any default or asserted default under the
Mortgage Loan, or to otherwise protect or preserve Lender’s interests in the Loan and the Collateral, including the Property in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 
  
 (c) Borrower hereby indemnifies Lender from and against all
out-of-pocket liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, assessments, actions, or causes of action, judgments, suits, claims, demands, costs, expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ and other professional fees,
whether or not suit is brought, and settlement costs), and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against Lender as a result of any actions taken by Lender to remediate any Mortgage Loan Event
of Default. Lender shall have no obligation to Borrower, Mortgage Borrower or any other party to make any such payment or performance. 
  
 (d) If Lender shall receive a copy of any notice of any Mortgage Loan Event of Default sent by Mortgage Lender to Mortgage Borrower, such
notice shall constitute full protection to Lender for any action taken or omitted to be taken by Lender, in good faith, in reliance thereon. As a material inducement to Lender’s making the Loan, Borrower hereby absolutely and unconditionally
release and waive all claims against Lender arising out of Lender’s exercise of its rights and remedies provided in this Section other than claims arising out of the fraud, illegal acts, gross negligence or willful misconduct of Lender.

  
 (e) In the event that Lender makes any
payment in respect of the Mortgage Loan, Lender shall be subrogated to all of the rights of Mortgage Lender under the Mortgage Loan Documents against the Property and Mortgage Borrower in addition to all other rights Lender may have under the Loan
Documents or applicable law. 
  
 Section 9.11
Intercreditor Agreement. 
  
 (a) Lender and Mortgage
Lender are parties to a certain intercreditor agreement dated as of the date hereof (the “Intercreditor Agreement”) memorializing their relative rights and obligations with respect to the Mortgage Loan, the Loan, Mortgage Borrower,
Borrower and the Properties. Borrower and Mortgage Borrower hereby acknowledge and agree that (i) such Intercreditor Agreement is intended solely for the benefit of Lender and Mortgage Lender and (ii) Borrower and Mortgagor are not
intended third-party beneficiaries of any of the provisions 
  

 - 128 - 








 therein and shall not be entitled to rely on any of the provisions contained therein. Lender and Mortgage Lender shall
have no obligation to disclose to Borrower the contents of the Intercreditor Agreement. Borrower’s obligations hereunder are independent of such Intercreditor Agreement and remain unmodified by the terms and provisions thereof. 
  
 (b) In the event the Lender is required pursuant to the terms of the
Intercreditor Agreement to pay over any payment or distribution of assets, whether in cash, property or securities which is applied to the Debt, including, without limitation, any proceeds of the Properties previously received by Lender on account
of the Loan to the Mortgage Lender, then Borrower agrees to indemnify Lender for any amounts so paid, and any amount so paid shall continue to be owing pursuant to the Loan Documents as part of the Debt notwithstanding the prior receipt of such
payment by Lender. 
  
 Section 9.12 Discussions
with Mortgage Lender. 
  
 In connection with the exercise of
its rights set forth in the Loan Documents, Lender shall have the right at any time to discuss the Properties, the Mortgage Loan, the Loan or any other matter directly with Mortgage Lender or Mortgage Lender’s consultants, agents or
representatives without notice to or permission from Borrower or any other Loan Party, nor shall Lender have any obligation to disclose such discussions or the contents thereof with Borrower or any other Loan Party. 
  
 Section 9.13 Independent Approval Rights. 
  
 If any action, proposed action or other decision is consented to or approved
by Mortgage Lender, such consent or approval shall not be binding or controlling on Lender. Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that (i) the risks of Mortgage Lender in making the Mortgage Loan are different from the risks of Lender in
making the Loan, (ii) in determining whether to grant, deny, withhold or condition any requested consent or approval Mortgage Lender and Lender may reasonably reach different conclusions, and (iii) Lender has an absolute independent right
to grant, deny, withhold or condition any requested consent or approval based on its own point of view. Further, the denial by Lender of a requested consent or approval shall not create any liability or other obligation of Lender if the denial of
such consent or approval results directly or indirectly in a default under the Mortgage Loan, and Borrower hereby waives any claim of liability against Lender arising from any such denial. 
  
 X. MISCELLANEOUS 
  
 Section 10.1 Survival. 
  
 This Agreement and all covenants, agreements, representations and warranties
made herein and in the certificates delivered pursuant hereto shall survive the making by Lender of the Loan and the execution and delivery to Lender of the Note, and shall continue in full force and effect so long as all or any of the Debt is
outstanding and unpaid unless a longer period is expressly set forth herein or in the other Loan Documents. Whenever in this Agreement any of the parties hereto is referred to, such reference shall be deemed to include the legal representatives,
successors and assigns of such party. All covenants, promises and agreements in this Agreement, by or on behalf of Borrower, shall inure to the benefit of the legal representatives, successors and assigns of Lender. 
  

 - 129 - 








 Section 10.2 Lender’s Discretion. 
  
 Whenever pursuant to this Agreement, Lender exercises any right given to it
to approve or disapprove, or any arrangement or term is to be satisfactory to Lender, the decision of Lender to approve or disapprove or to decide whether arrangements or terms are satisfactory or not satisfactory shall (except as is otherwise
specifically herein provided) be in the sole discretion of Lender and shall be final and conclusive. 
  
 Section 10.3 Governing Law. 
  
 (a) THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE A CONTRACT ENTERED INTO PURSUANT TO THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK AND SHALL IN ALL RESPECTS
BE GOVERNED, CONSTRUED, APPLIED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAWS). 
  
 (b) WITH RESPECT TO ANY CLAIM OR ACTION ARISING HEREUNDER OR UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, THE NOTE, OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, BORROWER
(A) IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK AND THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT LOCATED IN THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN IN NEW YORK, NEW YORK, AND APPELLATE COURTS FROM ANY THEREOF, AND
(B) IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION WHICH IT MAY HAVE AT ANY TIME TO THE LAYING ON VENUE OF ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE NOTE OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT,
IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY CLAIM THAT ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT, THE NOTE OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS INSTRUMENT WILL BE DEEMED TO PRECLUDE LENDER
FROM BRINGING AN ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT HERETO IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. 
  
 Section 10.4 Modification, Waiver in Writing. 
  
 No modification, amendment, extension, discharge, termination or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, the Note, or of any other Loan Document, nor
consent to any departure by Borrower therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in a writing signed by the party against whom enforcement is sought, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific
instance, and for the purpose, for which given. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no notice to, or demand on Borrower, shall entitle Borrower to any other or future notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances.

  

 - 130 - 








 Section 10.5 Delay Not a Waiver. 
  
 Neither any failure nor any delay on the part of Lender in insisting upon
strict performance of any term, condition, covenant or agreement, or exercising any right, power, remedy or privilege hereunder, or under the 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, Lender 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 10.7 Trial by Jury. 
  
 BORROWER 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 IS INTENDED TO ENCOMPASS INDIVIDUALLY EACH INSTANCE AND EACH ISSUE AS TO WHICH THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY WOULD OTHERWISE ACCRUE. LENDER IS HEREBY AUTHORIZED TO FILE A COPY
OF THIS PARAGRAPH IN ANY PROCEEDING AS CONCLUSIVE EVIDENCE OF THIS WAIVER BY BORROWER. 
  
 Section 10.8 Headings. 
  
 The Article and/or Section headings and the Table of Contents in this Agreement are included herein for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement for any other purpose.

  
 Section 10.9 Severability. 
  
 Wherever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in
such manner as to be effective and valid under Applicable Law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall 
  

 - 132 - 








 be prohibited by or invalid under Applicable Law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition
or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement. 
  
 Section 10.10 Preferences. 
  
 Lender shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply or reverse and reapply any and all payments by Borrower to any portion of the obligations of
Borrower hereunder. To the extent Borrower makes a payment or payments to Lender, which payment or proceeds or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee,
receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law, State or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then, to the extent of such payment or proceeds received, the obligations hereunder or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived
and continue in full force and effect, as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by Lender. 
  
 Section 10.11 Waiver of Notice. 
  
 Borrower shall not be entitled to any notices of any nature whatsoever from Lender except with respect to matters for which this Agreement or the other
Loan Documents specifically and expressly provide for the giving of notice by Lender to Borrower and except with respect to matters for which Borrower 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 Lender with respect to any matter for which this Agreement or the other Loan Documents do not specifically and expressly provide for the giving of notice by Lender to Borrower.

  
 Section 10.12 Remedies of Borrower.

  
 In the event that a claim or adjudication is made that Lender
or its agents have acted unreasonably or unreasonably delayed acting in any case where by law or under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, Lender or such agent, as the case may be, has an obligation to act reasonably or promptly, Borrower
agrees that neither Lender nor its agents shall be liable for any monetary damages, and Borrower’s sole remedies shall be limited to commencing an action seeking injunctive relief or declaratory judgment. The parties hereto agree that any
action or proceeding to determine whether Lender has acted reasonably shall be determined by an action seeking declaratory judgment. 
  
 Section 10.13 Expenses; Indemnity. 
  
 (a) Borrower covenants and agrees to pay or, if Borrower fails to pay, to reimburse, Lender within five (5) days of receipt of
written notice from Lender for all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred by Lender in connection with (i) the preparation, negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement 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 (including without limitation any opinions requested by Lender as to any legal
matters arising under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents with 
  

 - 133 - 








 respect to the Properties); (ii) Borrower’s ongoing performance of and compliance with
Borrower’s respective agreements and covenants contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents on its part to be performed or complied with after the Closing Date, including, without limitation, confirming compliance with environmental
and insurance requirements; (iii) Lender’s ongoing performance and compliance with all agreements and conditions contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents on its part to be performed or complied with after the Closing Date;
(iv) the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and administration of any consents, amendments, waivers or other modifications to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other documents or matters requested by Lender;
(v) securing Borrower’s compliance with any requests made pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement; (vi) the filing and recording fees and expenses, title insurance and reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for providing to
Lender all required legal opinions, and other similar expenses incurred in creating and perfecting the Liens in favor of Lender pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; (vii) 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, this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Collateral, or any other security given for the
Loan; and (viii) enforcing any obligations of or collecting any payments due from Borrower under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or with respect to the Collateral or in connection with any refinancing or restructuring of the credit
arrangements provided under this Agreement in the nature of a “work-out” or of any insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings; provided, however, that Borrower shall not be liable for the payment of any such costs and expenses to the extent the
same arise by reason of the gross negligence, illegal acts, fraud or willful misconduct of Lender. Any cost and expenses due and payable to Lender shall be payable to Lender’s designee. 
  
 (b) Borrower shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless
Lender from and against any and all other liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees
and disbursements of counsel for Lender in connection with any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding commenced or threatened, whether or not Lender shall be designated a party thereto), that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted
against Lender in any manner relating to or arising out of (i) any breach by Borrower of its obligations under, or any material misrepresentation by Borrower contained in, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or (ii) the use or
intended use of the proceeds of the Loan (collectively, the “Additional Indemnified Liabilities”); provided, however, that Borrower shall not have any obligation to Lender hereunder to the extent that such Liabilities arise from the gross
negligence, illegal acts, fraud or willful misconduct of Lender. 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 Additional Indemnified Liabilities incurred by Lender. 
  
 (c) Borrower shall, at its sole cost and expense, protect,
defend, indemnify, release and hold harmless Lender and the Indemnified Parties from and against any and 
  

 - 134 - 








 all losses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs incurred in the
investigation, defense, and settlement of losses incurred in correcting any prohibited transaction or in the sale of a prohibited loan, and in obtaining any individual prohibited transaction exemption under ERISA, the Code, any State statute or
other similar law that may be required, in Lender’s sole discretion) that Lender may incur, directly or indirectly, as a result of a default under Sections 4.1.9 or 5.2.8 hereof. 
  
 (d) Borrower covenants and agrees to pay for or, if Borrower fails to pay, to reimburse Lender for any fees
and expenses incurred by any Rating Agency in connection with any consent, approval, waiver or confirmation obtained from such Rating Agency pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document and Lender shall be
entitled to require payment of such fees and expenses as a condition precedent to the obtaining of any such consent, approval, waiver or confirmation. 
  
 Section 10.14 Schedules and Exhibits Incorporated. 
  
 The Schedules and Exhibits annexed hereto are hereby incorporated herein as a part of this Agreement with the same effect as
if set forth in the body hereof. 
  
 Section 10.15
Offsets, Counterclaims and Defenses. 
  
 Any assignee
of Lender’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 may otherwise have against
any assignor of such documents, and no such unrelated counterclaim or defense shall be interposed or asserted by Borrower in any action or proceeding brought by any such assignee upon such documents and any such right to interpose or assert any such
unrelated offset, counterclaim or defense in any such action or proceeding is hereby expressly waived by Borrower. 
  
 Section 10.16 No Joint Venture or Partnership; No Third Party Beneficiaries. 
  
 (a) Borrower and Lender intend that the relationships
created hereunder and under the other Loan Documents be solely that of borrower and lender. Nothing herein or therein is intended to create a joint venture, partnership, tenancy-in-common, or joint tenancy relationship between Borrower and Lender or
to grant Lender any interest in the Collateral other than that of lender. 
  
 (b) This Agreement and the other Loan Documents are solely for the benefit of Lender and Borrower and nothing contained in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to confer upon anyone other than
Lender and Borrower 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 Lender to make the Loan hereunder are imposed solely and exclusively
for the benefit of Lender and no other Person shall have standing to require satisfaction of such conditions in accordance with their terms or be entitled to assume that Lender will refuse to make the Loan in the absence of strict compliance with
any or all thereof and no other Person shall under any circumstances be deemed to be a beneficiary of such conditions, any or all of which may be freely waived in whole or in part by Lender if, in Lender’s sole discretion, Lender deems it
advisable or desirable to do so. 
  

 - 135 - 








 Section 10.17 Publicity. 
  
 All news releases, publicity or advertising by Borrower or their Affiliates
through any media intended to reach the general public which refers to the Loan Documents or the financing evidenced by the Loan Documents, to Lender, Lehman, or any of their Affiliates shall be subject to the prior written approval of Lender, which
shall not be unreasonably withheld. All news releases, publicity or advertising by Lender or its Affiliates (other than in connection with a Securitization or a Syndication) through any media intended to reach the general public which refers to the
Loan Documents or the financing evidenced by the Loan Documents, to Borrower, or any of their Affiliates shall be subject to the prior written approval of Borrower or Guarantor, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, disclosure required by any federal or State securities laws, rules or regulations, as determined by Borrower’s or Lender’s counsel, respectively, shall not be subject to the prior written approval of Lender or Borrower, as
applicable. 
  
 Section 10.18 Waiver of Marshalling
of Assets. 
  
 (a) Intentionally Deleted.

  
 (b) To the fullest extent permitted by
Applicable Law, Borrower, for itself and its successors and assigns, waives all rights to a marshalling of the assets of Borrower, Borrower’s partners and others with interests in Borrower, and of the Collateral, or to a sale in inverse order
of alienation in the event of foreclosure of all or any of the Pledge Agreement, and agrees not to assert any right under any laws pertaining to the marshalling of assets, the sale in inverse order of alienation, homestead exemption, the
administration of estates of decedents, or any other matters whatsoever to defeat, reduce or affect the right of Lender under the Loan Documents to a sale of the Collateral for the collection of the Debt without any prior or different resort for
collection or of the right of Lender to the payment of the Debt out of the net proceeds of the Properties in preference to every other claimant whatsoever. In addition, Borrower, for itself and its successors and assigns, waives in the event of
foreclosure of the Pledge Agreement, any equitable right otherwise available to Borrower which would require the separate sale of the Collateral or require Lender to exhaust its remedies against any portion of the Collateral before proceeding
against any other portion of the Collateral; and further in the event of such foreclosure Borrower does hereby expressly consents to and authorizes, at the option of Lender, the foreclosure and sale either separately or together of any combination
of the Collateral. 
  
 Section 10.19 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 Lender or its agents. 
  

 - 136 - 








 Section 10.20 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 Lender or any parent, subsidiary or Affiliate of Lender. Lender shall not be subject to any limitation whatsoever in the exercise of any rights or
remedies available to it under any of the Loan Documents or any other agreements or instruments which govern the Loan by virtue of the ownership by it or any parent, subsidiary or Affiliate of Lender of any equity interest any of them may acquire in
Borrower, and Borrower hereby irrevocably waives the right to raise any defense or take any action on the basis of the foregoing with respect to Lender’s exercise of any such rights or remedies. Borrower acknowledges that Lender engages in the
business of real estate financings and other real estate transactions and investments which may be viewed as adverse to or competitive with the business of Borrower or its Affiliates. 
  
 Section 10.21 Brokers and Financial Advisors. 
  
 Borrower hereby represents that it has dealt with no financial advisors,
brokers, underwriters, placement agents, agents or finders in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Lender harmless from and against any and all claims, liabilities,
costs and expenses of any kind (including Lender’s attorneys’ fees and expenses) in any way relating to or arising from a claim by any Person that such Person acted on behalf of Borrower or Lender in connection with the transactions
contemplated herein. The provisions of this Section 10.21 shall survive the expiration and termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Debt. 
  
 Section 10.22 Prior Agreements. 
  
 This Agreement and the other Loan Documents contain the entire agreement of the parties hereto and thereto in respect of the transactions contemplated
hereby and thereby, and all prior agreements among or between such parties, whether oral or written, between Borrower and/or its Affiliates and Lender are superseded by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
