The Lender shall not be obligated to make any release of Building Loan proceeds from the Borrower Disbursement Account to the Borrower if, in the sole opinion of the Lender or the Construction Consultant, or both, the balance of the Building Loan yet to be released from the Borrower Disbursement Account by the Lender pursuant to this Agreement plus the Initial Equity Requirement yet to be invested is at any time less (the amount by which it is less being hereinafter referred to as the “Deficiency”) than the actual sum, as estimated by the Lender and the Construction Consultant, which will be required to complete the construction of the Improvements in accordance with the Plans and Specifications and this Agreement and to pay all Direct Construction Costs, Other Costs of Improvement and all other costs and expenses of any nature whatsoever which will be incurred in connection with the completion of construction of the Improvements.

Notwithstanding that the Initial Equity Requirement might not be required to be invested ahead of the release of the Building Loan Proceeds in order to meet NMTC Program Requirements, the Borrower shall, within fifteen (15) days after being notified by the Lender that there is or will be a Deficiency or even if there is no Deficiency, if an Event of Default has occurred, (i) deliver to the Lender evidence, reasonably satisfactory to the Lender if no Event of Default has occurred hereunder or under the Building Loan Mortgage or, if an Event of Default has occurred, in the Lender’s sole and absolute discretion, confirming that the Borrower has sufficient available cash or reserves to make cover any such Deficiency and to pay the costs thereof when required to complete the Improvements or (ii) deposit into the Borrower Disbursement Account an amount sufficient to eliminate the Deficiency or in the case of an Event of Default, the Initial Equity Requirement. Any amounts deposited by the Borrower into the Borrower Disbursement Account pursuant to clause (ii) of the preceding sentence of this paragraph to cover a Deficiency shall be released from the Borrower Disbursement Account by the Lender to the Borrower and shall be applied by the Borrower to cover the payment of Direct Construction Costs and Other Costs of Improvement incurred in connection with the construction of the Improvements, and until so released shall be held by the Borrower Disbursement Account. If an Event of Default (as hereinafter defined) shall occur and be continuing, the Lender, in addition to all other rights which it may have, shall have the absolute and unconditional right in its discretion to apply the undisbursed balance of any Deficiency deposit, together with interest earned thereon, in whole or in part to the payment of the Debt in such order, priority and proportion as the Lender in its sole and absolute discretion deems to be appropriate.

16. Specific Additional Covenants of Borrower. The Borrower shall comply with each of the following terms and conditions:

(a) The Borrower shall obtain and furnish to the Lender within ninety (90) days after the completion of the Improvements the originals or copies of all temporary permanent certificates of occupancy (or their local equivalent) and all other certificates, licenses, consents and other approvals of the Governmental Authorities which are required for the use and occupancy of the Improvements. In no event shall the Lender be required to make the last release of Building Loan proceeds from the Borrower Disbursement Account pursuant to this Agreement until a temporary certificate of occupancy has been obtained and the Improvements have been substantially completed (except punch list items). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Borrower shall have timely completed work and filed or submitted requests for any such certificates and licenses, then the failure of the applicable governmental authorities to timely provide same shall not be an Event of Default hereunder.

(b) The Borrower shall furnish to the Lender from time to time upon request (i) the names of all persons with whom the Borrower or the General Contractor has contracted or intends to contract for the construction of the Improvements or the furnishing of labor or materials in connection therewith, (ii) a list of all unpaid bills for labor and materials with respect to Major Contractors for the construction of the Improvements, (iii) budgets of the Borrower and revisions thereof showing estimated Direct Construction Costs and Other Costs of Improvement and other costs and expenses to be incurred in connection with the completion of construction of the Improvements, (iv) lien waivers, receipted bills or other evidences of payment of all Direct Construction Costs, Other Project Costs and other costs and expenses incurred in connection with the construction of the Improvements and any other costs and expenses relating to the Property, and (v) such other information relating to the Borrower, the Property, the Building Loan, the construction of the Improvements or any collateral for the Building Loan or other source of repayment of the Building Loan, as the Lender may reasonably request.

(c) The Borrower shall proceed promptly if the Improvements are partially or totally damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty with the repair and restoration thereof and shall diligently prosecute the work of repair and restoration to completion, it being agreed that (i) if such casualty is covered by fire or other casualty insurance, the Borrower’s obligation to proceed with such repair and restoration shall be contingent upon the Lender and the lessor under the Mortgaged Lease (as defined in the Building Loan Mortgage) disbursing to the Borrower the proceeds of such insurance to pay the cost of such repair and restoration, and (ii) the cost of such repair and restoration shall in no event or under any circumstance be made the basis of any advance of the Building Loan or release of Building Loan proceeds pursuant to this Agreement. If the Lender and the lessor under the Mortgaged Lease (as defined in the Building Loan Mortgage) agree to disburse insurance proceeds for such repair and restoration, such insurance proceeds shall be disbursed on the basis of certifications of the Construction Consultant as to costs incurred by the Borrower for work in place as part of such repair and restoration and otherwise on terms and conditions satisfactory in all respects to the Lender.

 

-12-


(d) The Borrower shall pay when due all Direct Construction Costs, Other Costs of Improvement and other costs and expenses incurred by the Borrower in connection with the construction of the Improvements or any repair and restoration of the Improvements pursuant to the provisions of this paragraph hereinabove set forth.

(f) The Lender shall not be required to pay any brokerage fees or commissions arising from the making of the Building Loan and the Borrower agrees to defend, indemnify and hold the Lender harmless from and against any and all such claims in connection therewith.

(g) The Borrower shall not assign this Agreement or the moneys to be advanced and released hereunder or convey, assign, pledge, encumber or mortgage (except for the Building Loan Mortgage ) any part of the Property without the prior consent of the Lender, but if the Borrower does any of the foregoing, the Lender may, in its discretion, continue to release Building Loan proceeds from the Borrower Disbursement Account to the Borrower or to those who succeed to the interest of the Borrower in the Property pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and all sums so released shall be deemed to be releases of Building Loan Proceeds made in pursuance and not in modification hereof and shall be evidenced and secured by the Building Loan Note and the Building Loan Mortgage.

17. Events of Default. The term “Event of Default” as used in this Agreement shall mean the occurrence of any one or more of the following events:

(a) If the Borrower shall continue to be in default under any of the provisions of this Agreement for ten (10) days after notice from the Lender in the case of any default which can be cured by the payment of a sum of money, or for thirty (30) days after notice from the Lender in the case of any other default, provided that if such default cannot reasonably be cured within such twenty (20) day period and the Borrower shall have commenced to cure such default within such thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently and expeditiously proceeds to cure the same, such thirty 30) day period shall be extended for so long as it shall require the Borrower in the exercise of due diligence to cure such default, it being agreed that no such extension shall be for a period in excess of ninety (90) days, or shall be construed as having the effect of extending the Completion Date as the same may be extended pursuant to paragraph 7 of this Agreement ;

-13-


(e) If construction of the Improvements is suspended for a period of ten (10) consecutive business days other than by reason of the occurrence of an event of force majeure, or if construction of the Improvements in the reasonable judgment of the Lender or the Construction Consultant is not carried on with reasonable diligence, or if the Lender or the Construction Consultant is of the reasonable opinion that the Improvements cannot be substantially completed by the Completion Date, as the same may be extended pursuant to paragraph 7 of this Agreement;

(f) If the Borrower shall fail to satisfy Lender as to Borrower’s financial wherewithal to cover any Deficiency as required in paragraph 15 of this Agreement and such failure continues for ten (10) business days after notice thereof to the Borrower;

(g) If the Borrower executes any chattel mortgage or other security agreement with respect to any Equipment, or if any such Equipment are not substantially in accordance with the Plans and Specifications or are leased or purchased pursuant to any conditional sales contract or other security agreement or otherwise so that the ownership thereof will not vest unconditionally in the Borrower free from encumbrances upon being made a part of the Property, or if the Borrower does not furnish to the Lender on request the contracts, bills of sale, statements, receipted vouchers or other agreements, under which the Borrower claims title to such materials, equipment, furniture, fixtures or articles of personal property; or

Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Lender (i) may, at its option and in its sole and absolute discretion, declare the Debt immediately due and payable, and (ii) may, at its option and in its sole and absolute discretion, cease to release Building Loan proceeds from the Borrower Disbursement Account, and (iii) may pursue any and all remedies provided for in the Loan Documents, or otherwise available.
