MASTER CREDIT FACILITY AGREEMENT
     THIS MASTER CREDIT FACILITY AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made as of May 29, 2009, by and among (i) (a) CMF 7 PORTFOLIO LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, and (b) such Additional Borrowers as may from time to time become borrowers under this Agreement (individually and collectively, “Borrower”), (ii) COLONIAL REALTY LIMITED PARTNERSHIP, a Delaware limited partnership (“Guarantor”), and (iii) GRANDBRIDGE REAL ESTATE CAPITAL LLC, a North Carolina limited liability company (“Lender”).
RECITALS
     A. Borrower owns one (1) or more Multifamily Residential Properties (unless otherwise defined or the context clearly indicates otherwise, capitalized terms shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in Appendix I of this Agreement) as more particularly described in Exhibit A to this Agreement.
     B. Borrower has requested that Lender establish a $156,359,000 Credit Facility in favor of Borrower.
     C. To secure the obligations of Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents issued in connection with the Credit Facility, Borrower shall create a Collateral Pool in favor of Lender. The Collateral Pool shall be comprised of (i) certain Multifamily Residential Properties owned by Borrower or any Additional Borrower and (ii) any other collateral pledged to Lender from time to time by any Borrower or Additional Borrower pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Documents. As of the Initial Closing Date, the Collateral Pool shall consist of the Mortgaged Properties listed on Exhibit A.
     D. Each Note and Security Document shall be cross-defaulted (i.e., a default under any Note, Security Document, or under this Agreement, shall constitute a default under each Note, Security Document, and this Agreement) and cross-collateralized (i.e., each Security Instrument shall secure all of Borrower’s obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents) and it is the intent of the parties to this Agreement that Lender may accelerate any Note without the obligation, but with the right to accelerate any other Note and that in the exercise of its rights and remedies under the Loan Documents, Lender may, except as provided in this Agreement, exercise and perfect any and all of its rights in and under the Loan Documents with regard to any Mortgaged Property without the obligation (but with the right) to exercise and perfect its rights and remedies with respect to any other Mortgaged Property and that any such exercise shall be without regard to the Allocable Facility Amount assigned to such Mortgaged Property and that Lender may recover an amount equal to the full amount Outstanding in respect of any of the Notes in connection with such exercise and any such amount shall be applied to the Obligations as determined by Lender.
     Subject to the terms, conditions and limitations of this Agreement, Lender has agreed to establish the Credit Facility.

     NOW, THEREFORE, Borrower, Lender and Guarantor, in consideration of the mutual promises and agreements contained in this Agreement, hereby agree as follows:
ARTICLE 1
THE COMMITMENT
     Section 1.01. The Commitment. 
     Subject to the terms, conditions and limitations of this Agreement:
     (a) Commitment Amount; No Increase. The amount of the Commitment is $156,359,000. As of the Initial Closing Date, the amount advanced under the Fixed Facility Commitment is $156,359,000, and the amount advanced under the Variable Facility Commitment is $0. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including without limitation Section 1.10, Borrower may obtain Future Advances in accordance with Section 1.01(b) and (c) for the remainder of the Commitment not advanced on the Initial Closing Date. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.05, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Borrower shall have no right to increase the amount of the Commitment (except for an increase in the Fixed Commitment pursuant to a conversion under Section 1.06 of this Agreement).
     (b) Variable Facility Commitment. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including without limitation Section 1.10, Lender agrees to make SARM Variable Advances to Borrower from time to time during the Variable Facility Availability Period.  The aggregate principal balance of the Variable Advances Outstanding at any time shall not exceed the Variable Facility Commitment.  The repayment of a Variable Advance shall permanently reduce the Variable Facility Commitment by the original principal amount of such Variable Advance. Borrower may not re-borrow any part of any Variable Advance which it has previously borrowed and repaid. Unless permitted by the provisions of Section 2.05, no Advances shall be made as a result of increases in the Debt Service Coverage Ratio or decreases in the Loan to Value Ratio of any Mortgaged Property. 
     (c) Fixed Facility Commitment. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including without limitation Section 1.10, Lender agrees to make Fixed Advances to Borrower from time to time during the Fixed Facility Availability Period. Fixed Advances may be a cash execution or an MBS execution at Lender’s discretion. The aggregate original principal amount of the Fixed Advances Outstanding shall not exceed the Fixed Facility Commitment. The repayment of a Fixed Advance shall permanently reduce the Fixed Facility Commitment by the original principal amount of such Fixed Advance. Borrower may not re-borrow any part of any Fixed Advance which it has previously borrowed and repaid. Unless permitted by the provisions of Section 2.05, no Advance shall be made as a result of increases in the Debt Service Coverage Ratio or decreases in the Loan to Value Ratio of any Mortgaged Property.

          (i) a Fixed Advance with a fixed rate term that matures not earlier than the date that is the first day of the month following the date five (5) years after the Closing Date of such Fixed Advance, and not later than the date that is the first day of the month following the date ten (10) years after the Closing Date of such Fixed Advance, provided that no final maturity date of any Fixed Advance shall be later than the date that is the first day of the month following the date ten (10) years after the Initial Closing Date (the “Fixed Standard Yield Maintenance Maturity Option”) as more specifically set forth in the Fixed Facility Note, the form of which is attached as Exhibit B-1 to this Agreement, or
          (ii) a Fixed Advance with an initial fixed rate term with an initial maturity date that is not earlier than the first day of the month following the date five (5) years after the Closing Date and not later than the first day of the month following the date that is nine (9) years after the Closing Date which initial maturity date is automatically followed by a 1-year adjustable rate term, such that the Fixed Advance has a final maturity date that is not earlier than the first day of the month following the date six (6) years and not later than the first day of the month following the date that is ten (10) years after the Closing Date of such Fixed Advance, provided that no final maturity date of any Fixed Advance shall be later than the date that is the first day of the month following the date ten (10) years after the Initial Closing Date (the “Fixed+1 Maturity Option”) as more specifically set forth in the Fixed Facility Note, the form of which is attached as Exhibit B-2 to this Agreement.
     (d) Early Rate Lock. Borrower shall be permitted to rate lock any Fixed Advance subject to the requirements of Fannie Mae’s “Early Rate Lock” program. If Borrower elects to rate lock a Fixed Advance pursuant to the Early Rate Lock program, Borrower shall execute an

Early Rate Lock commitment provided by Lender and an Early Rate Lock Borrower Certification (the “ERL Certification”) in the form required by Fannie Mae for the DUS Early Rate Lock Product, modified as acceptable to Fannie Mae to take into account the terms of this Agreement, evidencing the terms of the Fixed Advance. At the time Borrower executes the ERL Commitment, Borrower shall select the maturity option for such Fixed Advance as set forth in Section 1.03(c) above.
     Section 1.04. Interest on Advances.
     (a) Partial Month Interest. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 1.04(a), if an Advance is not made on the first day of a calendar month, Borrower shall pay interest on the original stated principal amount of such Advance for the partial month period commencing on the Closing Date for such Advance and ending on the last day of the calendar month in which the Closing Date occurs. Borrower shall pay interest for such partial month on any such Advance at a rate per annum equal to the greater of (i) the interest rate described in the applicable Note, and (ii) a rate determined by Lender, based on Lender’s cost of funds and approved in advance, in writing, by Borrower.
     (b) Interest Rate on SARM Variable Advances. Interest shall accrue on the unpaid balance of a SARM Variable Advance from the date such Advance is made at the Adjustable Rate. Interest accrued through the end of each month shall be payable two (2) Business Days before the first day of the following month as more particularly set forth in the applicable Variable Facility Note. The Adjustable Rate shall change on each Rate Change Date until the Advance is repaid in accordance with the applicable Variable Facility Note. Interest payments for SARM Variable Advances shall be calculated on an actual/360 basis.
     (c) Interest Rate on Fixed Advances. Each Fixed Advance shall be a cash execution or an MBS execution and bear interest at a rate, per annum, equal to the sum of (i) the Cash Interest Rate (for a cash execution) or the MBS Interest Rate (for an MBS execution) for such Fixed Advance and (ii) the Margin. Subject to the terms of Section 1.03(b)(ii), interest payments for Fixed Advances shall be calculated on an actual/360 basis.
     Section 1.05. Notes.
     (a) Variable Advances. The obligation of Borrower to repay each Variable Advance shall be evidenced by a separate Variable Facility Note in the form attached to this Agreement as Exhibit C-1 or Exhibit C-2. Each Variable Facility Note shall be payable to the order of Lender and shall be made in the original principal amount of such Variable Facility Advance.
     (b) Fixed Advances. The obligation of Borrower to repay each Fixed Advance shall be evidenced by a separate Fixed Facility Note in the form attached to this Agreement as Exhibit B-1 or Exhibit B-2. Each Fixed Facility Note shall be payable to the order of Lender and shall be made in the original principal amount of such Fixed Advance.

     Section 1.06. Conversion of SARM Variable Advances to Fixed Advances.
     (a) Right to Convert. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including without limitation Section 1.10, Borrower shall have the right, from time to time during the Conversion Availability Period, to convert all or any portion of a SARM Variable Advance on the first day of a month to a Fixed Advance. The Variable Facility Commitment shall be reduced by, and the Fixed Facility Commitment shall be increased by the amount of the converted Advance.
     (b) Request. To convert one or more SARM Variable Advances, or a portion thereof, to one or more Fixed Advances, Borrower shall deliver a Conversion Request to Lender which shall designate the amount of the Variable Advance to be converted.
     (c) Closing. Subject to Section 1.07 and provided that all conditions contained in Section 1.08 are satisfied, Lender shall permit the requested conversion to close at offices designated by Lender on a Closing Date selected by Lender, on a date that is not earlier than thirty (30) Business Days after Lender’s receipt of the Conversion Request (or on such other date as Borrower and Lender may agree). At the closing, Lender and Borrower shall execute and deliver, at the sole cost and expense of Borrower, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender, the Conversion Documents.
     Section 1.07. Limitations on Right to Convert to Fixed Advances.
     Borrower’s right to convert one (1) or more Variable Advances to one (1) or more Fixed Advances is subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including without limitation, Section 1.10 and the following limitations:
     (a) Closing Date. With respect to SARM Variable Advances, the Closing Date shall occur during the Conversion Availability Period on the first day of a month.
     (b) Minimum Request. Each Conversion Request shall be in the minimum amount of $5,000,000.
     (c) Failure to Underwrite. In the event all or a portion of the amount of the SARM Variable Advance set forth in the Conversion Request cannot be converted because the increased debt service on the Fixed Advance does not result in the Collateral Pool satisfying the Coverage and LTV Tests, Borrower shall prepay the amount of the SARM Variable Advance that cannot be converted to a Fixed Advance and shall pay all prepayment premiums and other fees associated with such prepayment.
     (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if either of the tests set forth above in subsections (b) and (c) are not satisfied after the conversion, such conversion may be permitted by Lender if the conversion improves the Collateral Pool based on factors that are consistent with Lender’s Underwriting Requirements and results in improvement in one or both of the following areas: the then current Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio or the then current Aggregate Loan to Value Ratio. Notwithstanding the foregoing, under no circumstances shall the Aggregate Loan to Value Ratio exceed ninety percent (90%).

     Section 1.08. Conditions to Conversion.
     The conversion of all or any portion of the SARM Variable Advances to one (1) or more Fixed Advances is subject to the satisfaction on or before the Closing Date, of all applicable conditions contained in Section 5.01 and Section 5.07. The interest rate for any converted Advance shall be determined pursuant to the terms of Section 2.01 of this Agreement. The Margin applicable to the converted Advance shall be determined by Lender prior to such conversion.
     Section 1.09. Interest Rate Protection.
     (a) To protect against fluctuations in interest rates during the term, pursuant to the terms of the Cap Security Agreement, Borrower shall make arrangements for a LIBOR-based hedge instrument (“Interest Rate Cap”) to be in place at the Strike Rate set forth in the Cap Security Agreement and maintained at all times with respect to any portion of the Variable Facility Commitment which has been funded and remains Outstanding.  The seller of the Interest Rate Cap (seller and its transferees and assigns, the “Counterparty”) shall be a financial institution meeting the minimum requirements for hedge counterparties reasonably and customarily acceptable to Lender.  An Interest Rate Cap shall be documented on a form acceptable to Lender. As set forth in the applicable Cap Security Agreement, Borrower agrees to pledge its right, title and interest in the Interest Rate Cap to Lender as additional collateral for the Indebtedness. The Interest Rate Cap shall have a minimum initial term of five (5) years.
     (b) In the event that an Interest Rate Cap is no longer deemed “approved” by Lender, for reasons including but not limited to, (i) a termination, transfer or consent to transfer of an Interest Rate Cap, (ii) the occurrence of a “Termination Event” as that term is defined in each Interest Rate Cap, or (iii) Lender’s determination that the Counterparty on such Interest Rate Cap no longer meets its minimum requirements for hedge counterparties, such Interest Rate Cap shall no longer be deemed approved and shall no longer serve to satisfy the requirements of this Section 1.09.  If an Interest Rate Cap is determined by Lender not to satisfy the requirements of this Section 1.09, or if an Interest Rate Cap unexpectedly and unavoidably terminates on a date other than its scheduled expiration date, the Borrower shall, within ten (10) days of such termination, obtain a new Interest Rate Cap satisfying the requirements of this Agreement.
     Section 1.10. Limitation on All Advances.
     Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary, any Future Advance, whether a Variable Advance or a Fixed Advance, and any conversion of an Advance or any refinance of an Advance shall be subject to the precondition that Lender must confirm with Fannie Mae that Fannie Mae is generally offering to purchase in the marketplace advances of the execution type requested by Borrower at the time of the request and at the time of the Rate Setting Date for the requested Advance. In the event Fannie Mae is not purchasing advances of the type requested by Borrower, Lender agrees to offer, to the extent available from Fannie Mae, alternative advance executions based on the types of executions Fannie Mae is generally offering to purchase in the marketplace at that time. Any alternative execution offered

would be subject to mutually agreeable documentation necessary to implement the terms and conditions of such alternative execution.
ARTICLE 2
THE ADVANCES
     Section 2.01. Rate Setting for an Advance.
     Rates for an Advance shall be set in accordance with the following procedures:
     (a) Preliminary, Nonbinding Quote. At Borrower’s request Lender shall quote an estimate of the interest rate (for such proposed Advance). Lender’s quote shall be based on (i) a solicitation of bids from institutional investors selected by Lender, in the case of a proposed Fixed Advance with an MBS execution, or the rate quoted by Fannie Mae in the case of a proposed SARM Variable Advance or Fixed Advance with a cash execution, and (ii) the proposed terms and amount of the Advance selected by Borrower. The quote shall not be binding upon Lender.
     (b) Rate Setting. If Borrower satisfies all of the conditions to Lender’s obligation to make an Advance, then Borrower may request that Lender submit to Borrower a completed draft Rate Form in the form attached to this Agreement as Exhibit I. The draft Rate Form shall specify the proposed maximum interest rate for such Advance (“Maximum Annual Interest Rate”) and other terms set forth therein. If the draft Rate Form is approved by Borrower, Borrower shall execute and return the approved draft Rate Form to Lender before 1:00 p.m. Eastern Standard Time or Eastern Daylight Savings Time, as applicable, on any Business Day (“Rate Setting Date”).
     (c) Rate Confirmation.
          (i) SARM Variable Advances or Fixed Advances with Cash Execution. In the case of SARM Variable Advances or Fixed Advances with a cash execution, within one (1) Business Day after receipt of the draft Rate Form executed by Borrower and upon satisfaction of all of the conditions to Lender’s obligation to make such Advance, Lender shall seek to obtain a commitment from Fannie Mae (the “Fannie Mae Commitment”) for the purchase of the proposed SARM Variable Advance or Fixed Advance having the terms described in the related draft Rate Form.  If Lender obtains a Fannie Mae Commitment on terms equivalent (or better than) the terms in the draft Rate Form, Lender shall then complete and sign the Rate Form thereby confirming the terms set forth therein and shall immediately deliver the confirmed Rate Form to Borrower.
          (ii) Fixed Advances with MBS Execution. In the case of an MBS execution, within one (1) Business Day after receipt of the Rate Form and upon satisfaction of all of the conditions to Lender’s obligation to make such Fixed Advance (or for conversion, as applicable), Lender shall solicit bids from institutional investors selected by Lender based on the information in the Rate Form. If Lender obtains a commitment (“MBS Commitment”) on terms equivalent (or better than) the terms in the draft Rate Form, Lender shall then complete and countersign the
Colonial/ Grandbridge — Master Credit Facility Agreement

8


 

Rate Form thereby confirming the terms set forth therein, and shall immediately deliver the Rate Form to Borrower.
     Section 2.02. Breakage and Other Costs.
     If Lender obtains, and then fails to fulfill, the MBS Commitment or Fannie Mae Commitment because the Advance is not made (or the conversion does not occur, as applicable) (for a reason other than Lender’s default), Borrower shall pay all reasonable out-of-pocket costs payable to the potential investor and other reasonable costs, fees and damages incurred by Lender in connection with its failure to fulfill the MBS Commitment or Fannie Mae Commitment. Lender reserves the right to require Borrower to post a deposit at the time the MBS Commitment or Fannie Mae Commitment is obtained. Such deposit shall be refunded to Borrower upon the MBS or purchase of the Note by Fannie Mae, as applicable.
     Section 2.03. Advances.
     Borrower may deliver an Advance Request to Lender.
     (a) Initial Advance. If the Advance Request is to obtain the Initial Advance and all conditions precedent contained in Section 5.02 and the General Conditions contained in Section 5.01 are satisfied on or before the Initial Closing Date for the Initial Advance, Lender shall make the Initial Advance on the Initial Closing Date or on such other date as Borrower and Lender may agree.
     (b) Future Advance. If the Advance Request is to obtain a Future Advance, such Advance Request shall be in the minimum amount of $5,000,000. If all conditions precedent contained in Section 5.03 and the General Conditions contained in Section 5.01 are satisfied, Lender shall make the requested Future Advance, at a closing to be held at offices reasonably designated by Lender on a Closing Date reasonably selected by Lender, which date shall be not more than three (3) Business Days after Borrower’s receipt from Lender of the confirmed Rate Form (or on such other date as Borrower and Lender may agree). The Commitment will be fully drawn on the Initial Closing Date and accordingly no Future Advances are anticipated hereunder.
     Section 2.04. Determination of Allocable Facility Amount and Valuations.
     (a) Initial Determinations. On the Initial Closing Date, Lender shall determine (i) the Allocable Facility Amount and Valuation for each Initial Mortgaged Property, (ii) the Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio and the Aggregate Loan to Value Ratio, and (iii) the Advance Amount. The determinations made as of the Initial Closing Date shall remain unchanged until the First Anniversary. Changes in the Allocable Facility Amount, Valuations, the Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio and the Aggregate Loan to Value Ratio shall be made pursuant to Section 2.04(b).
     (b) Monitoring Determinations. Once each Calendar Quarter, or, if the Commitment consists only of a Fixed Facility Commitment that has an Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio equal to or greater than 1.25:1.0, once each Calendar Year, within twenty (20) Business Days after Borrower has delivered to Lender the reports required in Section 7.04, Lender shall
Colonial/ Grandbridge — Master Credit Facility Agreement

determine the Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio and the Aggregate Loan to Value Ratio, the Valuations and the Allocable Facility Amounts and whether Borrower is in compliance with the other covenants set forth in the Loan Documents. After the First Anniversary, Lender shall redetermine Allocable Facility Amounts and Valuations (i) quarterly, or (ii) if the Commitment consists only of a Fixed Facility Commitment that has an Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio equal to or greater than 1.25:1.0, annually, or (iii) at such other time if Lender reasonably determines that changed market or property conditions warrant, Lender shall also redetermine Allocable Facility Amounts to take account of any addition, release or substitution of Collateral or other event that invalidates the outstanding determinations. In determining Valuations, Lender shall use Capitalization Rates in its sole and absolute discretion based on its internal survey and analysis of Capitalization Rates for comparable sales in the vicinity of the Mortgaged Property, with such adjustments as Lender deems appropriate and without any obligation to use any information provided by Borrower. If Lender is unable to determine a Capitalization Rate for a Mortgaged Property, Lender shall have the right, not more than once annually, to obtain, at Borrower’s expense, a market study in order to establish a Capitalization Rate. Lender shall promptly disclose its determinations to Borrower. Until redetermined, the outstanding Allocable Facility Amounts and Valuations determined by Lender shall remain in effect. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no change in Allocable Facility Amounts, Valuations, the Aggregate Loan to Value Ratio or the Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio shall, (A) result in a Potential Event of Default or Event of Default, or (B) require the prepayment of any Advances.
     Section 2.05. Supplemental Loan.
     After the First Anniversary, Borrower may participate in the Fannie Mae Supplemental Loan product if the Supplemental Loan product is offered by Fannie Mae at the time. Any such Supplemental Loan is subject to Lender’s determination that, as a result of its annual valuation of the Collateral Pool, a Supplemental Loan may be made pursuant to Lender’s Underwriting Requirements for loans which meet the Coverage and LTV Tests. The Supplemental Loan will be documented with loan documents similar to the Loan Documents (“Supplemental Loan Documents”). Supplemental Loans will not be Advances advanced under this Agreement. Any Supplemental Loan will be priced at market at the time of the loan and will be cross-defaulted with the Advances made hereunder. To secure the obligations of Borrower under the Supplemental Loan Documents, Borrower shall grant, convey and assign to Lender a second Lien on each Mortgaged Property in the Collateral Pool and on any other collateral pledged to Lender from time to time pursuant to the Supplemental Loan Documents. On the closing date of the Supplemental Loan, Lender shall determine the portion of the Supplemental Loan allocated to a particular Mortgaged Property (the “Supplemental Allocable Loan Amount”), which Supplemental Allocable Loan Amounts shall be set forth in a separate exhibit to this Agreement. Lender shall redetermine the Supplemental Allocable Loan Amounts in the same manner and at the same time as the redetermination of the Allocable Facility Amounts pursuant to Section 2.04(b). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Supplemental Loan shall be monitored pursuant to Section 2.04 of this Agreement and Lender shall include the Supplemental Loan upon calculating the Coverage and LTV Tests, Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio and Aggregate Loan to Value Ratio, in connection with any Request. Borrower agrees to pay any fees (including legal fees) that may be charged in connection with a Supplemental Loans.

     Section 2.06. Increase in Commitment.
     Borrower shall have no right under this Agreement to increase the Commitment.
ARTICLE 3
COLLATERAL CHANGES
     Section 3.01. Right to Add Collateral.
     Subject to the terms and conditions of this Article 3, Borrower shall have the right, from time to time during the Term of this Agreement, to add Multifamily Residential Properties to the Collateral Pool.
     Section 3.02. Procedure for Adding Collateral.
     The procedure for adding Multifamily Residential Properties to the Collateral Pool contained in this Section 3.02 shall apply to all additions of Mortgaged Property including, but not limited to, additions of Mortgaged Property in connection with substitutions of Mortgaged Property.
     (a) Request. From time to time Borrower may deliver to Lender an Addition Request to add one (1) or more Multifamily Residential Properties to the Collateral Pool (the “Addition”). Each Addition Request shall be accompanied by the following: (i) the property-related information required by Lender, and (ii) the payment of all Additional Collateral Due Diligence Fees.
     (b) Underwriting.
          (i) Borrower may add an Additional Mortgaged Property provided that:
          (A) the Additional Mortgaged Property itself meets the Individual Property Coverage and LTV Tests,
          (B) after such Addition, the Coverage and LTV Tests are satisfied,
          (C) after the Addition, the Geographical Diversification Requirements shall be satisfied, and
          (D) all other terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement are satisfied.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Individual Property Coverage and LTV Tests, the Coverage and LTV Tests, or the Geographic Diversification Requirements are not satisfied after the Addition of a proposed Additional Mortgaged Property, such Addition may be permitted by Lender if the Addition improves the Collateral Pool based on factors that are consistent with Lender’s Underwriting Requirements and result in improvement in one or both of the following areas: the then current Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio or the then current Aggregate

11


 

Loan to Value Ratio. Notwithstanding the foregoing, under no circumstances shall the Aggregate Loan to Value Ratio exceed ninety percent (90%).
          (ii) Lender shall evaluate the proposed Additional Mortgaged Property in accordance with the Underwriting Requirements, including an exit analysis performed by Lender and acceptable to Fannie Mae. Lender shall make underwriting determinations as to the Debt Service Coverage Ratio and the Loan to Value Ratio of the proposed Additional Mortgaged Property and the Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio and the Aggregate Loan to Value Ratio applicable to the Collateral Pool on the basis of the lesser of (A) the acquisition price of the proposed Additional Mortgaged Property if purchased by Borrower within twelve (12) months of the related Addition Request, and (B) a Valuation made with respect to the proposed Additional Mortgaged Property. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.04 regarding the recalculation of Valuations and the calculation of Debt Service Coverage Ratios, for purposes of reviewing proposed Additional Mortgaged Properties, if Lender reasonably determines market conditions have changed in a manner adversely affecting any of the Mortgaged Properties since the determination of the then effective Aggregate Loan to Value Ratio and Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio, Lender may make new determinations of Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio and Aggregate Loan to Value Ratio for purposes of determining whether to permit the addition of the proposed Additional Mortgaged Property to the Collateral Pool. Borrower shall promptly provide any information reasonably required by Lender to make the determination required by the preceding sentence.
          (iii) After receipt of (A) the Addition Request and (B) all reports, certificates and documents required by the Underwriting Requirements, Lender shall notify Borrower whether the proposed Additional Mortgaged Property meets the conditions for an Addition. If Lender determines that the proposed Additional Mortgaged Property meets the conditions set forth in this Agreement, Lender shall set forth the Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio, the Aggregate Loan to Value Ratio that Lender estimates shall result from the Addition of the proposed Additional Mortgaged Property to the Collateral Pool and the Advance Amount. After receipt of Lender’s written consent to the Addition Request, Borrower shall notify Lender in writing whether it elects to add the proposed Additional Mortgaged Property to the Collateral Pool.
     (c) Closing. If Lender determines that the proposed Additional Mortgaged Property meets the conditions of Lender’s Underwriting Requirements and as set forth in this Agreement, Borrower timely elects to add the proposed Additional Mortgaged Property to the Collateral Pool, and all conditions precedent contained in Section 5.04 and all General Conditions contained in Section 5.01 are satisfied, the proposed Additional Mortgaged Property shall be added to the Collateral Pool, at a closing to be held at offices designated by Lender on a Closing Date selected by Lender, occurring within sixty (60) Business Days after Lender’s receipt of Borrower’s election (or on such other date as Borrower and Lender may agree).
     Section 3.03. Right to Obtain Releases of Collateral.
     Subject to the terms and conditions of this Article 3, Borrower shall have the right from time to time to obtain a release of a Mortgaged Property from the Collateral Pool.
Colonial/ Grandbridge — Master Credit Facility Agreement

12


 

     Section 3.04. Procedure for Obtaining Releases of Collateral.
     (a) Request. To obtain a release of a Mortgaged Property from the Collateral Pool (a “Release”), Borrower shall deliver a Release Request to Lender. The delivery of the Release Request itself shall not result in a termination of all or any part of the Credit Facility; however, any prepayments associated with such Release shall automatically result in a permanent reduction of the Fixed Facility Commitment, which repaid amount shall not be available to be re-borrowed, or, as applicable, a permanent reduction of the Variable Facility Commitment, which repaid amount shall not be available to be re-borrowed.
     (b) Closing. As a condition precedent to the release of the Release Mortgaged Property, the (i) Aggregate Loan to Value Ratio for the proposed Collateral Pool (after giving effect to such release) shall be less than or equal to the Aggregate Loan to Value Ratio of the Collateral Pool immediately prior to the release (and without giving effect to such release), and (ii) the Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio of the proposed Collateral Pool (after giving effect to such release) shall be equal to or greater than the Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio of the Collateral Pool immediately prior to the release of the Release Mortgaged Property (and without giving effect to such release), and (iii) the Coverage and LTV Tests shall be satisfied. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the tests identified in the immediately preceding sentence or the Geographic Diversification Requirements are not satisfied after the Release of the Mortgaged Property, such Release may be permitted by Lender if the Release improves the Collateral Pool based on factors that are consistent with Lender’s Underwriting Requirements and result in improvement in one or both of the following areas: the then current Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio or the then current Aggregate Loan to Value Ratio. If Lender determines that all conditions precedent are satisfied, including without limitation those in Section 5.01 and Section 5.05, Lender shall cause the Release Mortgaged Property to be released, at a closing to be held at offices designated by Lender on a Closing Date selected by Lender, and occurring within thirty (30) days after Lender’s receipt of the Release Request (or on such other date as Borrower and Lender may agree), by executing and delivering, and causing all applicable parties to execute and deliver, all at the sole cost and expense of Borrower, the Release Documents. At Lender’s option, Borrower shall prepare the Release Documents and submit them to Lender for its review.
     (c) Release Price. Subject to the terms of this Section 3.04(c), the “Release Price” for each Release Mortgaged Property means the greater of:
          (i) one hundred percent (100%) of the Allocable Facility Amount for the Release Mortgaged Property plus one hundred percent (100%) of the Supplemental Allocable Loan Amount for the Release Mortgaged Property, or
          (ii) one hundred percent (100%) of the amount of Advances Outstanding that are required to be repaid by Borrower to Lender in connection with the proposed release of the Release Mortgaged Property from the Collateral Pool so that, immediately after the release the conditions precedent set forth in the first sentence of Section 3.04(b) is satisfied.
Colonial/ Grandbridge — Master Credit Facility Agreement

13


 

     In addition to the Release Price, Borrower shall pay to Lender all associated prepayment premiums, accrued interest and other amounts due under the Notes evidencing the Advances being repaid to and including the date such Advance may be repaid.
     (d) Application of Release Price.
          (i) The Release Price for the Release Mortgaged Property shall be applied in the order selected by Borrower, provided that (A) any amount of the Supplemental Loan Outstanding which Borrower elects to prepay must be prepaid in full, or if the Release Price is not sufficient to do so, the Supplemental Loan shall be only partially prepaid; (B) any amount of the Outstanding Advances which Borrower elects to prepay must be prepaid in full, or if the Release Price is not sufficient to do so, the amount of the Outstanding Advances shall be only partially prepaid; (C) any prepayment is permitted under the applicable Note; (D) any prepayment premium due and owing is paid; and (E) interest must be paid through the end of the month. If Borrower is unable to meet the conditions set forth in (A) through (E), then the Release Price shall be applied first against any variable rate Supplemental Loan Outstanding so long as the prepayment is permitted under the applicable note, until any variable rate Supplemental Loan is no longer Outstanding, then against any Variable Advance Outstanding so long as the prepayment is permitted under the Variable Note, until any Variable Loan is no longer Outstanding, then against any fixed rate Supplemental Loan Outstanding so long as the prepayment is permitted under the applicable note, until any fixed rate Supplemental Loan is not longer Outstanding, then against any Fixed Advance Outstanding so long as the prepayment is permitted under the applicable Fixed Note.
          (ii) In the event Borrower desires to release a Release Mortgaged Property on a date other than the last Business Day of the month, the Release Price or the remainder of the Release Price, if any, shall be held by Lender (or its appointed collateral agent) as substitute Collateral (“Substitute Cash Collateral”), in accordance with a security agreement (if required by Lender) and other documents in form and substance acceptable to Lender. Any Substitute Cash Collateral shall first be used to prepay the applicable Supplemental Loan and then the applicable Advance on the last Business Day of the month.
     (e) Release of Borrower and Guarantor. Upon the Release of a Mortgaged Property, Borrower that owns such Release Mortgaged Property shall automatically without further action be released from its obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with respect to the Release Mortgaged Property, except for (i) any liabilities or obligations of such Borrower which arose prior to the Closing Date of such Release, and (ii) any Obligations that survive release as specifically set forth in Section 18 (Environmental Hazards) of the Security Instrument. In addition, each Borrower and Guarantor shall be released of all obligations related to the Release Mortgaged Property under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents except for any provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents that are expressly stated to survive any release or termination or for any liabilities or obligations of such Borrower or Guarantor which arose prior to the Closing Date of such release.
     (f) Title Insurance. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Section 3.04, no Release of any of the Mortgaged Properties shall be made unless the title insurance, taking into

account tie-in endorsements, insuring Lender in respect of each of the remaining Mortgaged Properties in the Collateral Pool is in an amount equal to one hundred fifteen percent (115%) of the Valuation of each of such remaining Mortgaged Properties (or such lesser amount that is the maximum allowed by law or regulation).
     Section 3.05. Substitutions.
     (a) Right to Substitute Collateral. Subject to the terms, conditions and limitations of Article 3 and Article 5, Borrower shall have the right prior to the date twelve (12) months before the Termination Date to obtain the Release of one or more Release Mortgaged Properties from the Collateral Pool by replacing such Release Mortgaged Property with one (1) or more Additional Mortgaged Properties that meet the requirements of this Agreement (the “Substitute Mortgaged Property”) thereby effecting a “Substitution” of Collateral.
     (b) Request. Borrower shall simultaneously deliver to Lender both a completed and executed Addition Request (unless such Substitute Mortgaged Property has not been identified by Borrower, in which case Borrower shall submit the Addition Request not less than thirty (30) Calendar Days prior to the date on which Borrower desires to add such Substitute Mortgaged Property, but not later than thirty (30) Calendar Days prior to the Property Delivery Deadline (defined hereinafter)) and Release Request (together, the “Substitution Request”). Each Substitution Request shall be accompanied by the following: (i) the information required by the Underwriting Requirements with respect to the proposed Substitute Mortgaged Property and any additional information Lender reasonably requests; and (ii) the payment of all Additional Collateral Due Diligence Fees.
     (c) Underwriting. Borrower may add a Substitute Mortgaged Property to the Collateral Pool provided that:
          (i) the Substitute Mortgaged Property itself meets the Individual Property Coverage and LTV Tests,
          (ii) the Substitute Mortgaged Property will be evaluated by the Lender in accordance with the Underwriting Requirements,
          (iii) after such Substitution, the Geographical Diversification Requirements shall be satisfied, and
          (iv) the following tests are satisfied: (A) Aggregate Loan to Value Ratio of the proposed Collateral Pool shall be less than or equal to the Aggregate Loan to Value Ratio of the Collateral Pool immediately prior to the Substitution, and (B) Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio of the proposed Collateral Pool must be equal to or greater than the Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio of the Collateral Pool immediately prior to the Substitution (and without giving effect to such Substitution), and (C) the Coverage and LTV Tests shall be satisfied.
Lender shall determine whether the proposed Substitute Mortgaged Property satisfies the requirements for an Additional Mortgaged Property set forth in Section 3.02(b)(ii) and Section 3.02(b)(iii). Within ten (10) days after receipt of Lender’s written consent to the proposed
Colonial/ Grandbridge — Master Credit Facility Agreement

15


 

Substitution, Borrower shall notify Lender in writing whether it elects to add the proposed Substitute Mortgaged Property to the Collateral Pool and release the identified Mortgaged Property. If Borrower fails to notify Lender of its election within the timeframe stated, then the Request will be deemed withdrawn.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any of the tests identified in Section 3.05(c)(i)-(iv) are not satisfied after the Substitution of a proposed Substitute Mortgaged Property, such Substitution may be permitted by Lender if the Substitution improves the Collateral Pool based on factors that are consistent with Lender’s Underwriting Requirements and result in improvement in one or more of the following areas: the then current Valuation of the Mortgaged Properties, the then current Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio or the then current Aggregate Loan to Value Ratio.
     (d) Closing. If, pursuant to this Section 3.05, Lender determines that the conditions set forth herein for the Substitution of the proposed Substitute Mortgaged Property into the Collateral Pool in replacement of the proposed Release Mortgaged Property, and Borrower timely elects to cause such Substitution to occur and all conditions contained in this Section 3.05 and Article 5 are satisfied, then the proposed Substitute Mortgaged Property shall be substituted into the Collateral Pool in replacement of the proposed Release Mortgaged Property, at a closing to be held at offices designated by Lender on a Closing Date selected by Lender, and occurring —
          (i) if the Substitution of the proposed Substitute Mortgaged Property is to occur simultaneously with the release of the proposed Release Mortgaged Property, within thirty (30) days after Lender’s receipt of Borrower’s election (or on such other date to which Borrower and Lender may agree); or
          (ii) if the Substitution of the proposed Substitute Mortgaged Property is to occur subsequent to the Release of the Release Mortgaged Property, within ninety (90) days after the effective date of the release of such Release Mortgaged Property (provided such date does not exceed one hundred eighty (180) days after Lender’s receipt of Borrower’s Release Request, unless otherwise agreed to by Lender) (the “Property Delivery Deadline”); in accordance with the terms of this Section 3.05(d); provided that on a case by case basis if Borrower provides evidence that it is diligently pursuing a suitable property for Substitution (e.g., evidence of a 1031 exchange), Lender may extend the Property Delivery Deadline by one (1) additional ninety (90) day period.
     (e) Substitution Deposit.
          (i) The Deposit. If the Addition of the proposed Substitute Mortgaged Property is to occur subsequent to the Release of the Release Mortgaged Property pursuant to Section 3.05(d), at the Closing Date of the Release of the Release Mortgaged Property, Borrower shall deposit with Lender the “Substitution Deposit” described in Section 3.05(e)(ii) in the form of cash or, in lieu of (and/or in addition to) depositing cash for the Substitution Deposit, Borrower may post a Letter of Credit in accordance with the terms of Section 5.11 of this Agreement, having a face amount equal to the Substitution Deposit (or such lesser amount that has been deposited in cash).
Colonial/ Grandbridge — Master Credit Facility Agreement

16


 

          (ii) Substitution Deposit Amount. The “Substitution Deposit” for each proposed Substitution shall be an amount equal to the sum of:
          (A) the Release Price relating to such proposed Release Mortgaged Property, plus
          (B) any and all of the yield maintenance, fee maintenance or the prepayment premium, as applicable, through the end of the month in which the Property Delivery Deadline occurs as if the Fixed Advance or SARM Variable Advance were to be prepaid in such month, plus
          (C) interest on such Advance through the end of the month in which the Property Delivery Deadline occurs, plus
          (D) costs, expenses and fees of Lender pertaining to the substitution (the “Substitution Cost Deposit”). Borrower shall also be obligated to make any regularly scheduled payments of principal and interest due under the applicable Note during any period between the closing of the Release Mortgaged Property and the earlier of the closing of the Substitute Mortgaged Property and the date of prepayment of the Note or MBS, as applicable. If a Substitution of the last remaining asset is taking place, the cash collateral or Letter of Credit must include (1) any yield maintenance that would be due to the extent that the Fixed Facility Notes must be prepaid to effect a release at that time, and (2) any fee maintenance that would be due to the extent that the Variable Facility Note must be prepaid to effect a release at that time. The Substitution Cost Deposit shall be used by Lender to cover all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Lender and Fannie Mae, including any out-of-pocket legal fees and expenses incurred by Fannie Mae and Lender in connection with such substitution whether such substitution actually closes.
          (iii) Failure to Close Substitution. If the Addition of the proposed Substitute Mortgaged Property does not occur by the Property Delivery Deadline in accordance with Section 3.05(d)(ii), then such Borrower shall have irrevocably waived its right to substitute such Release Mortgaged Property with the proposed Substitute Mortgaged Property, and the release of the Release Mortgaged Property shall be deemed to be a Release pursuant to Section 3.04 and shall trigger a prepayment of the Note and the MBS, if applicable, together with all yield maintenance, fee maintenance or prepayment premium then due in connection with such payment. The Property Delivery Deadline shall be no later than the date ninety (90) days (or one hundred eighty (180) days, if applicable) after the effective date Lender’s lien on such Release Mortgaged Property is released. Any Advance or MBS (as applicable) being prepaid shall be deemed to be prepaid as of the end of the month in which the Property Delivery Deadline falls. Lender shall follow standard Fannie Mae procedures for the prepayment of the Note or any applicable MBS, including delivery of the Substitution Deposit, together with all yield maintenance, fee maintenance, or prepayment premium, if any, then due, to Fannie Mae in accordance with such procedures.
Colonial/ Grandbridge — Master Credit Facility Agreement

17


 

Borrower shall comply with the requirements set forth in Section 3.04(c) and Section 3.04(d) not previously satisfied with respect to the Release Mortgaged Property, including payment of the Release Price. Such Release Price, or the applicable portion thereof, shall be applied in the manner set forth in Section 3.04(d) and the Substitution Deposit delivered by Borrower pursuant to Section 3.05(e) of this Agreement shall be returned to Borrower. However, if Borrower fails to timely pay the Release Price, Lender may draw upon the Substitution Deposit delivered by Borrower in satisfaction of such obligation. Any portion of the Substitution Deposit not needed to prepay the Note, or any applicable MBS, all interest, and any prepayment fees (including any portion of the Substitution Cost Deposit not used by Lender to cover all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Lender and Fannie Mae, including any out-of-pocket legal fees and expenses incurred by Fannie Mae and Lender in connection with such Substitution) shall be promptly refunded to the applicable Borrower after the Property Delivery Deadline.
          (iv) Substitution Deposit Disbursement. At closing of the Substitution, Lender shall disburse or return the Substitution Deposit , as applicable (less any portion of the Substitution Cost Deposit used by Lender to cover all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Lender and Fannie Mae, including any out-of-pocket legal fees and expenses incurred by Fannie Mae and Lender in connection with such substitution), directly to Borrower at such time as the conditions precedent for the Substitution have been satisfied, which must occur no later than the Property Delivery Deadline. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Borrower adds an Additional Mortgaged Property to the Collateral Pool prior to the Property Delivery Deadline but the Addition of such Additional Mortgaged Property has not in and of itself satisfied the requirements to close the Substitution, the Substitution Deposit shall be reduced by the Allocable Facility Amount of such Additional Mortgaged Property as determined by Lender, and such reduction in the Substitution Deposit shall be returned to Borrower, or in the case of a Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit shall be reduced by such reduction in the Substitution Deposit. If Borrower has not completely satisfied the requirements to close the Substitution by the Property Delivery Deadline, the terms of Section 3.05(e)(iii) shall apply with respect to the remaining Substitution Deposit.
     (f) Conditions Precedent to Substitutions. The obligation of Lender to make a requested Substitution is also subject to Lender’s determination that each of the conditions precedent for Additions of Additional Mortgaged Properties and Releases of Release Mortgaged Properties set forth in Section 5.01 and Section 5.06 of this Agreement have been satisfied.
     (g) Restriction on Borrowings. If the Addition of the Substitute Mortgaged Property to the Collateral Pool and the release of the Release Mortgaged Property from the Collateral Pool do not occur simultaneously (i.e., within thirty (30) days pursuant to Section 3.05(d) above) then, until the Addition of the Substitute Mortgaged Property to the Collateral Pool, the aggregate principal balance of Advances Outstanding shall not exceed the amount of the (i) Advances Outstanding immediately prior to the release of such Release Mortgaged Property minus (ii) the Allocable Facility Amount of the Release Mortgaged Property. If the aggregate unpaid principal balance of Advances Outstanding exceeds the amount resulting from subtracting (i) minus (ii) in the preceding sentence, Borrower shall pay such excess amount as a condition precedent to any Future Advances made under this Agreement and the Addition of a Substitute Mortgaged

     (a) The Waiving Borrower hereby waives any right it may now or hereafter have to require the beneficiary, assignee or other secured party under such Loan Document, as a condition to the exercise of any remedy or other right against it thereunder or under any other Loan Document executed by the Waiving Borrower in connection with the Other Borrower Secured Obligation: (i) to proceed against the other Borrower or any other person, or against any other collateral assigned to Lender by either Borrower or any other person; (ii) to pursue any other right or remedy in Lender’s power; (iii) to give notice of the time, place or terms of any public or private sale of real or personal property collateral assigned to Lender by the other Borrower or any other person (other than the Waiving Borrower), or otherwise to comply with Section 9615 of the California Commercial Code (as modified or recodified from time to time) with respect to any such personal property collateral located in the State of California; or (iv) to make or give (except as otherwise expressly provided in the Security Documents) any presentment, demand, protest, notice of dishonor, notice of protest or other demand or notice of any kind in connection with the Other Borrower Secured Obligation or any collateral (other than the Collateral described in such Security Document) for the Other Borrower Secured Obligation.
     (b) The Waiving Borrower hereby waives any defense it may now or hereafter have that relates to: (i) any disability or other defense of the other Borrower or any other person; (ii) the cessation, from any cause other than full performance, of the Other Borrower Secured Obligation; (iii) the application of the proceeds of the Other Borrower Secured Obligation, by the other Borrower or any other person, for purposes other than the purposes represented to the Waiving Borrower by the other Borrower or otherwise intended or understood by the Waiving Borrower or the other Borrower; (iv) any act or omission by Lender which directly or indirectly results in or contributes to the release of the other Borrower or any other person or any collateral for any Other Borrower Secured Obligation; (v) the unenforceability or invalidity of any Security Document or Loan Document (other than the Security Instrument executed by the Waiving Borrower that secures the Other Borrower Secured Obligation) or guaranty with respect to any Other Borrower Secured Obligation, or the lack of perfection or continuing perfection or lack of priority of any Lien (other than the Lien of such Security Instrument) which secures any Other Borrower Secured Obligation; (vi) any failure of Lender to marshal assets in favor of the Waiving Borrower or any other person; (vii) any modification of any Other Borrower Secured Obligation, including any renewal, extension, acceleration or increase in interest rate; (viii) any and all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies by Lender, even though that election of remedies, such as a nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to security for a guaranteed obligation, has destroyed the Waiving Borrower’s rights of subrogation and reimbursement against the principal by the operation of Section 580d of the California Code of Civil Procedure or otherwise; (ix) any law which provides that the obligation of a surety or guarantor must neither be larger in amount nor in other respects more burdensome than that of the principal or which reduces a surety’s or guarantor’s obligation in proportion to the principal obligation; (x) any failure of Lender to file or enforce a claim in any bankruptcy or other proceeding with respect to any person; (xi) the election by Lender, in any bankruptcy proceeding of any person, of the application or non-application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code; (xii) any

extension of credit or the grant of any lien under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code; (xiii) any use of cash collateral under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code; or (xiv) any agreement or stipulation with respect to the provision of adequate protection in any bankruptcy proceeding of any person. The Waiving Borrower further waives any and all rights and defenses that it may have because the Other Borrower Secured Obligation is secured by real property; this means, among other things, that: (A) Lender may collect from the Waiving Borrower without first foreclosing on any real or personal property collateral pledged by the other Borrower; (B) if Lender forecloses on any real property collateral pledged by the other Borrower, then (C) the amount of the Other Borrower Secured Obligation may be reduced only by the price for which that collateral is sold at the foreclosure sale, even if the collateral is worth more than the sale price; and (D) Lender may foreclose on the real property encumbered by the Security Instrument executed by the Waiving Borrower and securing the Other Borrower Secured Obligation even if Lender, by foreclosing on the real property collateral of the Other Borrower, has destroyed any right the Waiving Borrower may have to collect from the Other Borrower. Subject to the last sentence of Section 14.03, the foregoing sentence is an unconditional and irrevocable waiver of any rights and defenses the Waiving Borrower may have because the Other Borrower Secured Obligation is secured by real property. These rights and defenses being waived by the Waiving Borrower include, but are not limited to, any rights or defenses based upon Section 580a, 580b, 580d or 726 of the California Code of Civil Procedure. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing or any other provision hereof, the Waiving Borrower further expressly waives, except as provided in Section 14.04(g) below, to the extent permitted by law any and all rights and defenses, which might otherwise be available to it under California Civil Code Sections 2787 to 2855, inclusive, 2899 and 3433, or under California Code of Civil Procedure Sections 580a, 580b, 580d and 726, or any of such sections.
     (c) The Waiving Borrower hereby waives any and all benefits and defenses under California Civil Code Section 2810 and agrees that by doing so the Security Instrument executed by the Waiving Borrower and securing the Other Borrower Secured Obligation shall be and remain in full force and effect even if the other Borrower had no liability at the time of incurring the Other Borrower Secured Obligation, or thereafter ceases to be liable. The Waiving Borrower hereby waives any and all benefits and defenses under California Civil Code Section 2809 and agrees that by doing so the Waiving Borrower’s liability may be larger in amount and more burdensome than that of the other Borrower. The Waiving Borrower hereby waives the benefit of all principles or provisions of law, which are or might be in conflict with the terms of any of its waivers, and agrees that the Waiving Borrower’s waivers shall not be affected by any circumstances, which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge of a surety or a guarantor. The Waiving Borrower hereby waives the benefits of any right of discharge and all other rights under any and all statutes or other laws relating to guarantors or sureties, to the fullest extent permitted by law, diligence in collecting the Other Borrower Secured Obligation, presentment, demand for payment, protest, all notices with respect to the Other Borrower Secured Obligation, which may be required by statute, rule of law or otherwise to preserve Lender’s rights against the Waiving Borrower hereunder, including notice of acceptance, notice of any amendment of the Loan Documents evidencing the Other Borrower Secured Obligation, notice of the occurrence of any default or Event of Default, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of acceleration, notice of dishonor, notice of foreclosure, notice of protest, notice of the incurring by the other Borrower of any obligation or indebtedness and all rights to require Lender to (i)

proceed against the other Borrower, (ii) proceed against any general partner or managing member of the other Borrower, (iii) proceed against or exhaust any collateral held by Lender to secure the Other Borrower Secured Obligation, or (iv) if the other Borrower is a partnership, pursue any other remedy it may have against the other Borrower, or any general partner of the other Borrower, including any and all benefits under California Civil Code Sections 2845, 2849 and 2850.
     (d) The Waiving Borrower understands that the exercise by Lender of certain rights and remedies contained in a Security Instrument executed by the other Borrower (such as a nonjudicial foreclosure sale) may affect or eliminate the Waiving Borrower’s right of subrogation against the other Borrower and that the Waiving Borrower may therefore incur a partially or totally nonreimburseable liability. Nevertheless, the Waiving Borrower hereby authorizes and empowers Lender to exercise, in its sole and absolute discretion, any right or remedy, or any combination thereof, which may then be available, since it is the intent and purpose of the Waiving Borrower that its waivers shall be absolute, independent and unconditional under any and all circumstances.
     (e) In accordance with Section 2856 of the California Civil Code, the Waiving Borrower also waives any right or defense based upon an election of remedies by Lender, even though such election (e.g., nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to any collateral held by Lender to secure repayment of the Other Borrower Secured Obligation) destroys or otherwise impairs the subrogation rights of the Waiving Borrower to any right to proceed against the other Borrower for reimbursement, or both, by operation of Section 580d of the California Code of Civil Procedure or otherwise.
     (f) In accordance with Section 2856 of the California Civil Code, the Waiving Borrower waives any and all other rights and defenses available to the Waiving Borrower by reason of Sections 2787 through 2855, inclusive, of the California Civil Code, including any and all rights or defenses the Waiving Borrower may have by reason of protection afforded to the other Borrower with respect to the Other Borrower Secured Obligation pursuant to the antideficiency or other laws of the State of California limiting or discharging the Other Borrower Secured Obligation, including Sections 580a, 580b, 580d, and 726 of the California Code of Civil Procedure.
     (g) In accordance with Section 2856 of the California Civil Code and pursuant to any other Applicable Law, the Waiving Borrower agrees to withhold the exercise of any and all subrogation, contribution and reimbursement rights against the other Borrower, against any other person, and against any collateral or security for the Other Borrower Secured Obligation, including any such rights pursuant to Sections 2847 and 2848 of the California Civil Code, until the Other Borrower Secured Obligation has been indefeasibly paid and satisfied in full, all obligations owed to Lender under the Loan Documents have been fully performed, and Lender has released, transferred or disposed of all of their right, title and interest in such collateral or security.
     (h) Each Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that in the event that, notwithstanding Section 14.04(g) hereof, to the extent its agreement and waiver set forth in
Colonial/ Grandbridge — Master Credit Facility Agreement

58


 

Section 14.04(g) is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be void or voidable for any reason and such Borrower has any subrogation or other rights against any other Borrower, any such claims, direct or indirect, that such Borrower may have by subrogation rights or other form of reimbursement, contribution or indemnity, against any other Borrower or to any security or any such Borrower, shall be and such rights, claims and indebtedness are hereby deferred, postponed and fully subordinated in time and right of payment to the prior payment, performance and satisfaction in full of the Obligations. Until payment and performance in full with interest (including post-petition interest in any case under any chapter of the Bankruptcy Code) of the Obligations, each Borrower agrees not to accept any payment or satisfaction of any kind on Indebtedness of any other Borrower in respect of any such subrogation rights arising by virtue of payments made pursuant to this Article 14, and hereby assigns such rights or indebtedness to Lender, including the right to file proofs of claim and to vote thereon in connection with any case under any chapter of the Bankruptcy Code, including the right to vote on any plan of reorganization. In the event that any payment on account of any such subrogation rights shall be received by any Borrower in violation of the foregoing, such payment shall be held in trust for the benefit of Lender, and any amount so collected should be turned over to Lender for application to the Obligations.
     (i) At any time without notice to the Waiving Borrower, and without affecting or prejudicing the right of Lender to proceed against the Collateral described in any Loan Document executed by the Waiving Borrower and securing the Other Borrower Secured Obligation, (i) the time for payment of the principal of or interest on, or the performance of, the Other Borrower Secured Obligation may be extended or the Other Borrower Secured Obligation may be renewed in whole or in part; (ii) the time for the other Borrower’s performance of or compliance with any covenant or agreement contained in the Loan Documents evidencing the Other Borrower Secured Obligation, whether presently existing or hereinafter entered into, may be extended or such performance or compliance may be waived; (iii) the maturity of the Other Borrower Secured Obligation may be accelerated as provided in the related Note or any other related Loan Document; (iv) the related Note or any other related Loan Document may be modified or amended by Lender and the other Borrower in any respect, including an increase in the principal amount; and (v) any security for the Other Borrower Secured Obligation may be modified, exchanged, surrendered or otherwise dealt with or additional security may be pledged or mortgaged for the Other Borrower Secured Obligation.
     (j) It is agreed among each Borrower and Lender that all of the foregoing waivers are of the essence of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement and the Loan Documents and that but for the provisions of this Article 14 and such waivers Lender would decline to enter into this Agreement.
     Section 14.05. Joint and Several Obligation; Cross-Guaranty.
     Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents to the contrary (but subject to the last sentence of this Section 14.05 and the provisions of Section 14.01 and Section 14.12), each Borrower shall have joint and several liability for all Obligations. Notwithstanding the intent of all of the parties to this Agreement that all Obligations of each Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be joint and several
Colonial/ Grandbridge — Master Credit Facility Agreement

59


 

Obligations of each Borrower, each Borrower, on a joint and several basis, hereby irrevocably guarantees on a non-recourse basis, subject to the exceptions to non-recourse provisions of Section 14.01, to Lender and its successors and assigns, the full and prompt payment (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) and performance of, all Obligations owed or hereafter owing to Lender by each other Borrower. Each Borrower agrees that its non-recourse guaranty obligation hereunder is an unconditional guaranty of payment and performance and not merely a guaranty of collection. The Obligations of each Borrower under this Agreement shall not be subject to any counterclaim, set-off, recoupment, deduction, cross-claim or defense based upon any claim any Borrower may have against Lender or any other Borrower; provided, however, that upon the release of a Mortgaged Property, Borrower which owns such Release Mortgaged Property shall automatically without further action be released from its obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, except for any liabilities or obligations of such Borrower which arose prior to the Closing Date of such release or for any provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents that are expressly stated to survive any release or termination.
     Section 14.06. No Impairment.
     Each Borrower agrees that the provisions of this Article 14 are for the benefit of Lender and their successors, transferees, endorsees and assigns, and nothing herein contained shall impair, as between any other Borrower and Lender, the obligations of such other Borrower under the Loan Documents.
     Section 14.07. Election of Remedies.
          (a) Lender, in its discretion, may (i) bring suit against any one or more Borrower, jointly and severally, without any requirement that Lender first proceed against any other Borrower or any other Person; (ii) compromise or settle with any one or more Borrower, or any other Person, for such consideration as Lender may deem proper; (iii) release one or more Borrower, or any other Person, from liability; and (iv) otherwise deal with any Borrower and any other Person, or any one or more of them, in any manner, or resort to any of the Collateral at any time held by it for performance of the Obligations or any other source or means of obtaining payment of the Obligations, and no such action shall impair the rights of Lender to collect from any Borrower any amount guaranteed by any Borrower under this Article 14.
          (b) If, in the exercise of any of its rights and remedies, Lender shall forfeit any of its rights or remedies, including its rights to enter a deficiency judgment against any Borrower or any other Person, whether because of any Applicable Laws pertaining to “election of remedies” or the like, each Borrower hereby consents to such action by Lender and waives any claim based upon such action, even if such action by Lender shall result in a full or partial loss or any rights of subrogation which each Borrower might otherwise have had but for such action by Lender. Any election of remedies which results in the denial or impairment of the right of Lender to seek a deficiency judgment against any Borrower shall not impair any other Borrower’s obligation to pay the full amount of the Obligations. In the event Lender shall bid at any foreclosure or trustee’s sale or at any private sale permitted by law or any of the Loan Documents, Lender may bid all or less than the amount of the Obligations and the amount of

60


 

such bid need not be paid by Lender but shall be credited against the Obligations. The amount of the successful bid at any such sale, whether Lender or any other party is the successful bidder, shall be conclusively deemed to be fair market value of the Collateral and the difference between such bid amount and the remaining balance of the Obligations shall be conclusively deemed to be amount of the Obligations guaranteed under this Article 14, notwithstanding that any present or future law or court decision or ruling may have the effect of reducing the amount of any deficiency claim to which Lender might otherwise be entitled but for such bidding at any such sale.
     Section 14.08. Subordination of Other Obligations.
     (a) Each Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all amounts payable from time to time to such Borrower by any other Borrower pursuant to any agreement, whether secured or unsecured, whether of principal, interest or otherwise, other than the amounts referred to in this Article 14 (collectively, the “Subordinated Obligations”), shall be and such rights, claims and indebtedness are, hereby deferred, postponed and fully subordinated in time and right of payment to the prior payment, performance and satisfaction in full of the Obligations; provided, however, that payments may be received by any Borrower in accordance with, and only in accordance with, the provisions of Section 14.08(b) hereof.
     (b) Until the Obligations under all the Loan Documents have been finally paid in full or fully performed and all the Loan Documents have been terminated, each Borrower irrevocably and unconditionally agrees it will not ask, demand, sue for, take or receive, directly or indirectly, by set-off, redemption, purchase or in any other manner whatsoever, any payment with respect to, or any security or guaranty for, the whole or any part of the Subordinated Obligations, and in issuing documents, instruments or agreements of any kind evidencing the Subordinated Obligations, each Borrower hereby agrees that it will not receive any payment of any kind on account of the Subordinated Obligations, so long as any of the Obligations under all the Loan Documents are Outstanding or any of the terms and conditions of any of the Loan Documents are in effect; provided, however, that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if no Potential Event of Default or Event of Default or any other event or condition which would constitute an Event of Default after notice or lapse of time or both has occurred and is continuing under any of the Loan Documents, then (i) payments may be received by such Borrower in respect of the Subordinated Obligations in accordance with the stated terms thereof, and (ii) each Borrower and Guarantor shall be permitted to make distributions in accordance with the terms of the applicable Organizational Documents. Except as aforesaid, each Borrower agrees not to accept any payment or satisfaction of any kind of indebtedness of any other Borrower in respect of the Subordinated Obligations and hereby assigns such rights or indebtedness to Fannie Mae, including the right to file proofs of claim and to vote thereon in connection with any case under any chapter of the Bankruptcy Code, including the right to vote on any plan of reorganization. In the event that any payment on account of Subordinated Obligations shall be received by any Borrower in violation of the foregoing, such payment shall be held in trust for the benefit of Lender, and any amount so collected shall be turned over to Lender upon demand.

     Section 14.09. Insolvency and Liability of Other Borrower.
     So long as any of the Obligations are Outstanding, if a petition under any chapter of the Bankruptcy Code is filed by or against any Borrower (the “Subject Borrower” for the purposes of Section 14.09, Section 14.10, Section 14.11 and Section 14.12 of this Agreement), each other Borrower (each, an “Other Borrower” for the purposes of Section 14.09, Section 14.10, Section 14.11 and Section 14.12 of this Agreement) agrees to file all claims against the Subject Borrower in any bankruptcy or other proceeding in which the filing of claims is required by law in connection with indebtedness owed by the Subject Borrower and to assign to Lender all rights thereunder up to the amount of such indebtedness. In all such cases, the Person or Persons authorized to pay such claims shall pay to Lender the full amount thereof and Lender agrees to pay such Other Borrower any amounts received in excess of the amount necessary to pay the Obligations. Each Other Borrower hereby assigns to Lender all of such Borrower’s rights to all such payments to which such Other Borrower would otherwise be entitled but not to exceed the full amount of the Obligations. In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing, any such payment shall be received by any Other Borrower before the Obligations shall have been finally paid in full, such payment shall be held in trust for the benefit of and shall be paid over to Lender upon demand. Furthermore, notwithstanding the foregoing, the liability of each Borrower hereunder shall in no way be affected by:
     (a) the release or discharge of any Other Borrower in any creditors’, receivership, bankruptcy or other proceedings; or
     (b) the impairment, limitation or modification of the liability of any Other Borrower or the estate of any Other Borrower in bankruptcy resulting from the operation of any present or future provisions of any chapter of the Bankruptcy Code or other statute or from the decision in any court.
     Section 14.10. Preferences, Fraudulent Conveyances, Etc.
     If Lender is required to refund, or voluntarily refunds, any payment received from any Borrower because such payment is or may be avoided, invalidated, declared fraudulent, set aside or determined to be void or voidable as a preference, fraudulent conveyance, impermissible setoff or a diversion of trust funds under the bankruptcy laws or for any similar reason, including without limitation any judgment, order or decree of any court or administrative body having jurisdiction over any Borrower or any of its property, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor, custodian or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, any Borrower or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, or any statement or compromise of any claim effected by Lender with any Borrower or any other claimant (a “Rescinded Payment”), then each Other Borrower’s liability to Lender shall continue in full force and effect, or each Other Borrower’s liability to Lender shall be reinstated and renewed, as the case may be, with the same effect and to the same extent as if the Rescinded Payment had not been received by Lender, notwithstanding the cancellation or termination of any of the Loan Documents, and regardless of whether Lender contested the order requiring the return of such payment. In addition, each Other Borrower shall pay, or reimburse Lender for, all expenses (including all reasonable attorneys’ fees, court costs and related disbursements) incurred by Lender in the defense of any
Colonial/ Grandbridge — Master Credit Facility Agreement

62


 

claim that a payment received by Lender in respect of all or any part of the Obligations must be refunded. The provisions of this Section 14.10 shall survive the termination of Loan Documents and any satisfaction and discharge of any Borrower by virtue of any payment, court order or any federal or state law.
     Section 14.11. Maximum Liability of Each Borrower.
     Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents to the contrary, if the obligations of any Borrower under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or any Security Instruments granted by any Borrower are determined to exceed the reasonably equivalent value received by such Borrower in exchange for such obligations or grant of such Security Instruments under any Fraudulent Transfer Law (as hereinafter defined), then such liability of such Borrower shall be limited to a maximum aggregate amount equal to the largest amount that would not render its obligations under this Agreement or all the Other Borrower Documents subject to avoidance as a fraudulent transfer or conveyance under Section 548 of Title 11 of the United States Code or any applicable provisions of comparable state law (collectively, the “Fraudulent Transfer Laws”), in each case after giving effect to all other liabilities of such Borrower, contingent or otherwise, that are relevant under the Fraudulent Transfer Laws (specifically excluding, however, any liabilities of such Borrower in respect of Indebtedness to any Other Borrower or any other Person that is an Affiliate of the Other Borrower to the extent that such Indebtedness would be discharged in an amount equal to the amount paid by such Borrower in respect of the Obligations) and after giving effect (as assets) to the value (as determined under the applicable provisions of the Fraudulent Transfer Laws) of any rights to subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification or contribution of such Borrower pursuant to Applicable Law or pursuant to the terms of any agreement including any contribution agreement.
     Section 14.12. Liability Cumulative; References to California Law.
     The liability of each Borrower under this Article 14 is in addition to and shall be cumulative with all liabilities of such Borrower to Lender under this Agreement and all the other Loan Documents to which such Borrower is a party or in respect of any Obligations of any Other Borrower. All references in Article 14 to California law are only applicable if any Mortgaged Property is located in California.
ARTICLE 15
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

     To facilitate execution, this Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts. It shall not be necessary that the signatures of, or on behalf of, each party, or that the signatures of all persons required to bind any party, appear on each counterpart, but it shall be sufficient that the signature of, or on behalf of, each party, appear on one or more counterparts. All counterparts shall collectively constitute a single agreement. It shall not be necessary in making

     (a) Any amendment, consent or waiver to this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents (whether or not any such amendments, consents or waivers are entered into).
     (b) Defending or participating in any litigation arising from actions by third parties and brought against or involving Lender with respect to (i) any Mortgaged Property, (ii) any event, act, condition or circumstance in connection with any Mortgaged Property or (iii) the relationship between Lender and Borrower and Guarantor in connection with this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Any amounts payable by Borrower pursuant to this Section 15.03, with interest thereon if not paid when due, shall become additional Indebtedness of Borrower secured by the Loan Documents. Such amounts shall bear interest from the date such amounts are due until paid in full at the weighted average, as determined by Lender, of the interest rates in effect from time to time for each Advance unless collection from Borrower of interest at such rate would be contrary to Applicable Law, in which event such amounts shall bear interest at the highest rate which may be collected from Borrower under Applicable Law.
