year by (c) the outstanding principal balance. If, at any time, Lender or Borrower determines that Lender has miscalculated the Applicable Interest Rate (whether because of a miscalculation of LIBOR or otherwise), such party shall notify the other of the necessary correction. Upon the agreement of the parties as to the correction, if the corrected Applicable Interest Rate represents an increase in the applicable monthly payment, Borrower shall, within ten (10) days after receipt of notice from Lender, pay to Lender the corrected amount. Upon the agreement of the parties as to the correction, if the corrected Applicable Interest Rate represents an overpayment by Borrower to Lender and no Event of Default then exists, Lender shall refund the overpayment to Borrower or, at Lender’s option, credit such amounts against Borrower’s payment next due hereunder.
          2.2.3 Determination of Interest Rate. (a) The Applicable Interest Rate with respect to the Loan shall be: (i) LIBOR plus the Spread with respect to the applicable Interest Period for a LIBOR Loan or (ii) the Prime Rate plus the Prime Rate Spread for a Prime Rate Loan if the Loan is converted to a Prime Rate Loan pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.2.3(c) or (f).
          (b) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 2.2.3, the Loan shall be a LIBOR Loan and Borrower shall pay interest on the outstanding principal amount of the Loan at LIBOR plus the Spread for the applicable Interest Period.

          (c) In the event that Lender shall have determined in good faith (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon Borrower absent manifest error) that by reason of circumstances affecting the interbank eurodollar market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining LIBOR, then Lender shall forthwith give notice by telephone of such determination, confirmed in writing, to Borrower at least one (1) Business Day prior to the last day of the related Interest Period. If such notice is given, the related outstanding LIBOR Loan shall be converted, on the first day of the next occurring Interest Period, to a Prime Rate Loan.
          (d) If, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, any portion of the Loan has been converted to a Prime Rate Loan and Lender shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon Borrower absent manifest error) that the event(s) or circumstance(s) which resulted in such conversion shall no longer be applicable, Lender shall give notice by telephone of such determination, confirmed in writing, to Borrower at least one (1) Business Day prior to the last day of the related Interest Period. If such notice is given, the related outstanding Prime Rate Loan shall be converted to a LIBOR Loan on the first day of the next occurring Interest Period.

If any Foreign Taxes are required to be withheld from any amounts payable to Lender hereunder, the amounts so payable to Lender shall be increased to the extent necessary to yield to Lender (after payment of all Foreign Taxes) interest or any such other amounts payable hereunder at the rate or in the amounts specified hereunder. If Lender gives Borrower written notice that any such amounts are payable by Borrower, Borrower shall pay all such amounts by the later of (i) five (5) Business Days after receipt of demand from Lender and (ii) their due date, and, as promptly as possible thereafter, Borrower shall send to Lender an original official receipt, if available, or certified copy thereof showing payment of such Foreign Tax. Borrower agrees to indemnify Lender for any incremental taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by Lender as a result of any failure by Borrower, following receipt of written demand from Lender, to pay any such Foreign Tax when due to the appropriate taxing authority or any failure by Borrower to remit to Lender the required receipts or other required documentary evidence.
     (ii) In the event that Lender or any successor and/or assign of Lender is not incorporated under the laws of the United States of America or a state thereof, Lender agrees that, prior to the first date on which any payment is due such entity hereunder, it will deliver to Borrower two (2) duly completed copies of United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, Form W-8IMY and/or Form W-8ECI or successor applicable form, as the case may be, certifying in each case that such entity is entitled to receive payments under the Note, without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes and to establish an exemption from United States backup withholding tax (in which case Borrower shall not deduct or withhold any United States federal income tax). Each entity required to deliver to Borrower a Form W-8BEN, Form W-8IMY and/or Form W-8ECI pursuant to the preceding sentence further undertakes to deliver to Borrower two (2) further copies of Form W-8BEN, Form W-8IMY and/or Form W-8ECI, or successor applicable forms, or other manner of certification, as the case may be, on or before the date that any such form expires or becomes obsolete or after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent letter previously delivered by it to Borrower, unless in any such case an event (including, without limitation, any change in treaty, law or regulation) has occurred prior to the date on which any such delivery would otherwise be required which renders all such forms inapplicable or which would prevent such entity from duly completing and delivering any such form with respect to it.
     (iii) Lender or any successor and/or assign of Lender that is incorporated under the laws of the United States of America or a state thereof agrees that, promptly after written request of Borrower, it will deliver to Borrower a United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or successor applicable form, as the case may be, to establish exemption from United States backup withholding tax.

     (iv) If required by applicable law, Borrower is hereby authorized to deduct from any payments due to Lender pursuant to Section 2.3 the amount of any withholding taxes resulting from Lender’s failure to comply with Section 2.2.3(e)(ii) or (iii).
          (f) Except as otherwise expressly provided in Section 2.2.3(e), if any requirement of law or any change therein or in the interpretation or application thereof, shall hereafter make it unlawful for Lender to make or maintain a LIBOR Loan as contemplated hereunder (i) the obligation of Lender hereunder to make a LIBOR Loan or to convert a Prime Rate Loan to a LIBOR Loan shall be canceled forthwith and (ii) any outstanding LIBOR Loan shall be converted automatically to a Prime Rate Loan on the next succeeding Payment Date or within such earlier period as required by law. Borrower hereby agrees promptly to pay Lender, upon demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate Lender for any actual out-of-pocket costs incurred by Lender in making any conversion in accordance with this Agreement, including, without limitation, any interest or fees payable by Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to make or maintain the LIBOR Loan hereunder; provided that such additional amount is generally charged by Lender to other borrowers with loans similar to the Loan. Lender’s notice of such costs, as certified to Borrower, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
          (g) Except as otherwise expressly provided in Section 2.2.3(e), in the event that any change in any requirement of law or in the interpretation or application thereof, or compliance by Lender with any request or directive having the force of law hereafter issued from any central bank or other Governmental Authority:
     (i) shall hereafter impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances or loans by, or other credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of Lender which is not otherwise included in the determination of LIBOR hereunder;
     (ii) shall hereafter have the effect of reducing the rate of return on Lender’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which Lender could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration Lender’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by any material amount; or
     (iii) shall hereafter impose on Lender any other condition and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the actual out-of-pocket cost to Lender of maintaining loans or extensions of credit or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder;
then, in any such case, Borrower shall promptly pay Lender, upon demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate Lender for such additional cost or reduced amount receivable; provided that such additional amount is generally charged by Lender to other borrowers with loans similar to the Loan. If Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.2.3(g), Lender shall provide Borrower with not less than ninety (90) days notice specifying in reasonable detail the event by reason of which it has become so entitled and the additional amount required to fully compensate Lender for such additional cost or reduced

amount. A certificate as to any additional costs or amounts payable pursuant to the foregoing sentence submitted by Lender to Borrower shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.
          (h) Borrower agrees to pay to Lender and to hold Lender harmless from any actual out-of-pocket expense which Lender sustains or incurs as a consequence of (i) any default by Borrower in payment of the principal of or interest on a LIBOR Loan, including, without limitation, any such loss or expense arising from interest or fees payable by Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to maintain a LIBOR Loan hereunder, (ii) any prepayment (whether voluntary or mandatory) of the LIBOR Loan on a day that (A) is not the Payment Date immediately following the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto or (B) is the Payment Date immediately following the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto if Borrower did not give the prior notice of such prepayment required pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including, without limitation, such loss or expense arising from interest or fees payable by Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to maintain the LIBOR Loan hereunder and (iii) the conversion (for any reason whatsoever, whether voluntary or involuntary) of the Applicable Interest Rate from LIBOR plus the Spread to the Prime Rate plus the Prime Rate Spread with respect to any portion of the outstanding principal amount of the Loan then bearing interest at LIBOR plus the Spread on a date other than the Payment Date immediately following the last day of an Interest Period, including, without limitation, such actual out-of-pocket expenses arising from interest or fees payable by Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to maintain a LIBOR Loan hereunder (the amounts referred to in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) are herein referred to collectively as the “Breakage Costs"); provided, however, Borrower shall not indemnify Lender from any loss or expense arising from Lender’s willful misconduct, fraud, illegal acts or gross negligence. No Breakage Costs shall be due or payable if, in connection with any prepayment of the Loan by Borrower, Borrower pays interest through (but not including) the next Payment Date as provided in Section 2.4.1.
          (i) Subject to Section 2.2.3(e) above, Lender shall not be entitled to claim compensation pursuant to this Section 2.2.3 for any Foreign Taxes, increased cost or reduction in amounts received or receivable hereunder, or any reduced rate of return, which was incurred or which accrued more than ninety (90) days before the date Lender notified Borrower in writing of the change in law or other circumstance on which such claim of compensation is based and delivered to Borrower a written statement setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for calculating the additional amounts owed to Lender under this Section 2.2.3, which statement shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto absent manifest error.
          2.2.4 Additional Costs. Lender will use reasonable efforts (consistent with legal and regulatory restrictions) to maintain the availability of the LIBOR Loan and to avoid or reduce any increased or additional costs payable by Borrower under Section 2.2.3, including, if requested by Borrower, a transfer or assignment of the Loan to a branch, office or Affiliate of Lender in another jurisdiction, or a redesignation of its lending office with respect to the Loan, in order to maintain the availability of the LIBOR Loan or to avoid or reduce such increased or additional costs, provided that the transfer or assignment or redesignation (a) would not result in any additional costs, expenses or risk to Lender that are not separately agreed to by Borrower to be reimbursed by Borrower and (b) would not be disadvantageous in any other material respect to Lender as determined by Lender in its reasonable discretion.

          2.2.5 Default Rate. In the event that, and for so long as, any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the outstanding principal balance of the Loan and, to the extent permitted by law, all accrued and unpaid interest in respect of the Loan and any other amounts due pursuant to the Loan Documents, shall accrue interest at the Default Rate, calculated from the date such payment was due without regard to any grace or cure periods contained herein.
          2.2.6 Usury Savings. This Agreement, the Note and the other Loan Documents are subject to the express condition that at no time shall Borrower be obligated or required to pay interest on the principal balance of the Loan at a rate which could subject Lender to either civil or criminal liability as a result of being in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate.

          III. INTENTIONALLY OMITTED
          IV. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
          Section 4.1. Borrower Representations. Borrower represents and warrants as of the Assumption Date that:
          4.1.1 Organization. Hotel Owner has been duly organized and is validly existing and in good standing with requisite power and authority to own its properties and to transact the businesses in which it is now engaged. Hotel Operator has been duly organized and is validly existing and in good standing with requisite power and authority to own the lessee’s interest in the Hotel Operating Lease and to operate the Property and to transact the businesses in which it is now engaged. Borrower is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction where it is required to be so qualified in connection with its properties, businesses and operations. Borrower possesses all rights, licenses, permits and authorizations, governmental or otherwise, necessary to entitle it to own its properties and to transact the businesses in which it is now engaged. The sole business of Hotel Owner is the ownership, management and operation of the Property and the sole business of Hotel Operator is the leasing of the Property and the operation thereof. The ownership interests of Borrower are as set forth on the organizational chart attached hereto as Schedule III.
          4.1.2 Proceedings. Borrower has taken all necessary action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. This Agreement and such other Loan Documents have been duly executed and delivered by or on behalf of Borrower and constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of Borrower enforceable against Borrower in accordance with their respective terms, subject only to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws affecting rights of creditors generally, and subject, as to enforceability, to general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law).
          4.1.3 No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents by Borrower will not conflict with or result in a breach of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance (other than pursuant to the Loan Documents) upon any of the property or assets of Borrower pursuant to the terms of any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, partnership agreement, management agreement or other agreement or instrument to which Borrower is a party or by which any of Borrower’s property or assets is subject, nor will such action result in any violation of the provisions of any statute or any order, rule or regulation of any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over Borrower or any of Borrower’s properties or assets, and any consent, approval, authorization, order, registration or qualification of or with any such Governmental Authority required for the execution, delivery and performance by Borrower of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents has been obtained and is in full force and effect.
          4.1.4 Litigation. Except as set forth on Schedule VI attached hereto, there is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation pending against Borrower or, to Borrower’s actual knowledge, pending against the Property or, to Borrower’s actual knowledge, threatened in

-37-


 

writing against Borrower or the Property in any court or by or before any other Governmental Authority that would have a material adverse effect on (i) the business operations, economic performance, assets, financial condition, equity, contingent liabilities, material agreements or results of operations of Borrower or the Property, (ii) the enforceability or validity of any Loan Document, the perfection or priority of any Lien created under any Loan Document or the remedies of Lender under any Loan Document, (iii) the ability of Borrower to perform, in all material respects, its obligations under each of the Loan Documents, or (iv) the value of, or cash flow from the Property.
          4.1.5 Agreements. Borrower is not a party to any agreement or instrument or subject to any restriction which would materially and adversely affect Borrower or the Property, or Borrower’s business, properties or assets, operations or condition, financial or otherwise. To the best of Borrower’s knowledge, Borrower is not in default in any material respect in the performance, observance or fulfillment of any of the obligations, covenants or conditions contained in any agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which Borrower or the Property are bound. Borrower has no material financial obligation under any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement or other agreement or instrument to which Borrower is a party or by which Borrower or the Property is otherwise bound, other than (a) obligations incurred in the ordinary course of the operation of the Property as permitted pursuant to clause (t) of the definition of “Special Purpose Entity” set forth in Section 1.1 hereof, (b) obligations under the Loan Documents, (c) the Hotel Operating Lease, (d) obligations pursuant to the Management Agreement, and (e) the Ground Lease.
          4.1.6 Title. Borrower has good, marketable and insurable leasehold title to the real property comprising part of the Property and good title to the balance of the Property, free and clear of all Liens whatsoever except the Permitted Encumbrances, such other Liens as are permitted pursuant to the Loan Documents and the Liens created by the Loan Documents. To the best of Borrower’s knowledge, the Permitted Encumbrances in the aggregate do not materially and adversely affect the operation or use of the Property (as currently used) or Borrower’s ability to repay the Loan. The Mortgage, when properly recorded in the appropriate records, together with any Uniform Commercial Code financing statements required to be filed in connection therewith, will create (a) a valid, perfected first priority lien on the real property portion of the Property, subject only to Permitted Encumbrances and the Liens created by the Loan Documents and (b) together with the filing of the required Uniform Commercial Code financing statements, perfected security interests in and to, and perfected collateral assignments of, all personalty (including the Leases), all in accordance with the terms thereof, in each case subject only to any applicable Permitted Encumbrances, such other Liens as are permitted pursuant to the Loan Documents and the Liens created by the Loan Documents. To Borrower’s knowledge after due inquiry, there are no claims for payment for work, labor or materials affecting the Property which are or may become a Lien prior to, or of equal priority with, the Liens created by the Loan Documents.
          4.1.7 Solvency. Borrower has (a) not entered into the transaction or executed the Note, this Agreement or any other Loan Documents with the actual intent to hinder, delay or defraud any creditor and (b) received reasonably equivalent value in exchange for its obligations under such Loan Documents. The fair saleable value of Borrower’s assets exceeds and will, immediately following the assumption of the Loan, exceed Borrower’s total liabilities, including,

-38-


 

without limitation, subordinated, unliquidated, disputed and contingent liabilities. The fair saleable value of Borrower’s assets is and will, immediately following the assumption of the Loan, be greater than Borrower’s probable liabilities, including the maximum amount of its contingent liabilities on its debts as such debts become absolute and matured. Borrower’s assets do not and, immediately following the assumption of the Loan will not, constitute unreasonably small capital to carry out its business as conducted or as proposed to be conducted. Borrower does not intend to, and does not believe that it will, incur Indebtedness and liabilities (including contingent liabilities and other commitments) beyond its ability to pay such debt and liabilities as they mature (taking into account the timing and amounts of cash to be received by Borrower and the amounts to be payable on or in respect of obligations of Borrower). No petition in bankruptcy has been filed against Borrower, Principal or Sponsor, and neither Borrower, Principal nor Sponsor has ever made an assignment for the benefit of creditors or taken advantage of any insolvency act for the benefit of debtors. Neither Borrower, Principal nor Sponsor are contemplating either the filing of a petition by it under any state or federal bankruptcy or insolvency laws or the liquidation of all or a major portion of Borrower’s assets or properties, and Borrower has no knowledge of any Person contemplating the filing of any such petition against it, Principal or Sponsor.
          4.1.8 Full and Accurate Disclosure. To Borrower’s actual knowledge, no statement of fact made by Borrower in this Agreement or in any of the other Loan Documents contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact necessary to make statements contained herein or therein not misleading. There is no fact or circumstance presently known to Borrower which has not been disclosed to Lender and which will have a material adverse effect on (a) the use and operation of the Property, (b) the enforceability or validity of any Loan Document, the perfection or priority of any Lien created under any Loan Document or the remedies of Lender under any Loan Document, or (c) the ability of Borrower to perform, in all material respects, its obligations under each of the Loan Documents.
          4.1.9 No Plan Assets. As of the date hereof and throughout the term of the Loan (a) Borrower is not and will not be an “employee benefit plan,” as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA, subject to Title I of ERISA, (b) none of the assets of Borrower constitutes or will constitute “plan assets” of one or more such plans within the meaning of 29 C.F.R. Section 2510.3-101, (c) Borrower is not and will not be a “governmental plan” within the meaning of Section 3(32) of ERISA, and (d) none of the assets of Borrower constitute “plan assets” of a governmental plan within the meaning of 29 C.F.R. Section 2510.3-101 for purposes of any state law provisions regulating investments of, or fiduciary obligations with respect to, governmental plans.
          4.1.10 Compliance. Except as set forth in the Zoning Report, otherwise disclosed to Lender in writing or shown on the attached Schedule IV hereto (with respect to certain permits and licenses), Borrower and, to the best of Borrower’s knowledge after due inquiry, the Land and Improvements (including the use thereof) comply in all material respects with all applicable Legal Requirements, including, without limitation, building and zoning ordinances and codes and Prescribed Laws. Borrower is not in default or violation of any order, writ, injunction, decree or demand of any Governmental Authority. There has not been committed by Borrower or, to Borrower’s actual knowledge, any other Person in occupancy of or involved with the operation or use of the Property any act or omission affording the federal

-39-

financial affairs of Borrower and all items of income and expense in connection with the operation of the Property.

With respect to the reporting requirements of Section 5.1.11, it is acknowledged and accepted by Lender that annual, quarterly and monthly reporting may not precisely reflect a calendar year, quarter or month due to the need to conform with Marriott Manager’s use of thirteen Marriott Accounting Periods (approximately a calendar year) for reporting, and the need to derive certain information based on Marriott Manager’s financial data prepared on the basis of such Marriott Manager’s Accounting Periods.
          (b) Borrower will furnish to Lender (1) within one hundred twenty (120) days following the end of the Fiscal Year of Borrower ending December 31, 2007, an unaudited cash flow statement for such Fiscal year, and (2) within one hundred twenty (120) days following the end of each Fiscal Year of Borrower thereafter, a complete copy of Borrower’s annual financial statements (prepared on a consolidated basis for Hotel Owner and Hotel Operator) audited by a “Big Four” accounting firm or other independent certified public accountant reasonably acceptable to Lender in accordance with the Uniform System of Accounts and reconciled each year in accordance with GAAP (or such other accounting basis acceptable to Lender) covering the Property for such Fiscal Year and containing statements of profit and loss for Borrower and the Property and a balance sheet for Borrower.

The Annual Budget shall be subject to Lender’s written reasonable approval, which approval rights shall (i) be limited as follows: (A) with respect to the Business Plan (as defined in the Management Agreement), Lender’s consent shall be required before Borrower consents to any Business Plan containing any materially adverse changes from the Business Plan of the preceding Fiscal Year; (B) with respect to the budget for FF&E Expenditures, Lender’s consent shall be required before Borrower consents to such budget if such budget for such FF&E Expenditures (excluding Required Repairs) exceeds four percent (4%) of Gross Income from Operations; and (C) with respect to the budget for Capital Expenditures, Lender’s consent shall be required before Borrower consents if the budget for such Capital Expenditures (excluding FF&E Expenditures and Required Repairs) exceeds four percent (4%) of Gross Income from Operations; and (ii) be subject in all respects to Borrower’s budget approval rights under the Management Agreement for as long as the Property is managed by the Marriott Manager (each such Annual Budget, an “Approved Annual Budget").

APPROVAL WILL BE DEEMED GIVEN IF LENDER DOES NOT RESPOND WITHIN FIVE (5) BUSINESS DAYS” and Lender does not respond to such second submission of such proposed Annual Budget by approving such proposed Annual Budget or stating in reasonable detail its objection thereto within five (5) Business Days of Lender’s receipt of such second submission. In the event that Lender objects to a proposed Annual Budget submitted by Borrower, Lender shall advise Borrower of such objections within ten (10) Business Days after receipt thereof (and deliver to Borrower a reasonably detailed description of such objections) and Borrower shall promptly revise such Annual Budget (subject to the provisions of the Management Agreement) and resubmit the same to Lender. Lender shall advise Borrower of any objections to such revised Annual Budget within ten (10) days after receipt thereof (and deliver to Borrower a reasonably detailed description of such objections) and Borrower shall promptly revise the same (subject to the provisions of the Management Agreement) in accordance with the process described in this subsection until Lender approves the Annual Budget. Until such time that Lender approves a proposed Annual Budget (or is deemed to have approved such Annual Budget), the most recently Approved Annual Budget shall apply; provided, that such Approved Annual Budget shall be automatically adjusted (i) to reflect actual increases in Taxes and Insurance Premiums, (ii) by three percent (3%) to account for inflation and (iii) to reflect any expenses that must be incurred on an “emergency basis” in order to prevent the occurrence of any harm to any individuals on the Property or the Property itself or the operation thereof.

Borrower shall reimburse Lender for any actual losses, actual costs, actual damages (excluding lost profits, diminution in value and other consequential damages) or reasonable expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs) incurred by Lender if an interest in the Property, other than as permitted hereunder, is claimed against Lender by another Person.

Upon request, Borrower shall furnish Lender with executed copies of all Leases. All renewals of Leases and all proposed Leases shall provide for rental rates comparable to existing local market rates. All proposed Leases shall be on commercially reasonable terms and shall not contain any terms which would materially adversely affect Lender’s rights under the Loan Documents. All Leases executed after the date hereof shall provide that they are subordinate to the Mortgage and that the lessee agrees to attorn to Lender or any purchaser at a sale by foreclosure or power of sale, provided that Lender provides commercially reasonable nondisturbance language. Borrower (i) shall observe and perform the obligations imposed upon the lessor under the Leases in a commercially reasonable manner; (ii) shall enforce and may amend or terminate the terms, covenants and conditions contained in the Leases upon the part of the lessee thereunder to be observed or performed in a commercially reasonable manner and in a manner not to impair the value of the Property involved except that no termination by Borrower or acceptance of surrender by a tenant of any Leases shall be permitted unless by reason of a tenant default and then only in a commercially reasonable manner to preserve and protect the Property; provided, however, that no such termination or surrender of any Lease executed after the Closing Date providing for rent due thereunder in an amount greater than $75,000 per annum will be permitted without the consent of Lender; (iii) shall not collect any of the rents more than one (1) month in advance (other than security deposits); and (iv) shall not execute any other assignment of lessor’s interest in the Leases or the

If the correspondence from Borrower requesting such approval contains the following statement at the top of the first page thereof in capitalized, boldfaced, 14 point type lettering: “IF YOU FAIL TO RESPOND TO OR TO EXPRESSLY DENY THIS REQUEST FOR APPROVAL IN WRITING WITHIN TEN (10) BUSINESS DAYS, YOUR APPROVAL SHALL BE DEEMED GIVEN”, and if Lender shall fail to respond to or to expressly deny such request for approval in writing (stating in reasonable detail the reason for such disapproval) within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of Borrower’s written request therefor together with the documents and information required above and any other information reasonably requested by Lender in writing prior to the expiration of such ten (10) Business Day period in order to adequately review the same, then (x) if the annual rent of the proposed Lease is less than $250,000 per annum, Lender’s approval shall be deemed given or (y) if the annual rent of the proposed Lease is $250,000 per annum or greater, Borrower shall re-submit such proposed Lease and accompanying information to Lender with a request for approval containing the following statement at the top of the first page thereof in capitalized, boldfaced, 14 point type lettering: “IF YOU FAIL TO RESPOND TO OR TO EXPRESSLY DENY THIS REQUEST FOR APPROVAL IN WRITING WITHIN FIVE (5) BUSINESS DAYS, YOUR APPROVAL SHALL BE DEEMED GIVEN” and if Lender does not respond to such second request by approving such proposed Lease or stating its objection thereto within five (5) Business Days of Lender’s receipt of such second submission, Lender’s approval shall be deemed given. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Borrower shall not enter into a lease of all or substantially all of the Property without Lender’s prior consent and (i) neither Hotel Owner nor Hotel Operator shall terminate the Hotel Operating Lease nor enter into any material amendment, modification or supplement to the Hotel Operating Lease without, in either case, Lender’s prior written consent, and (ii) Borrower shall promptly provide Lender with a copy of any termination, amendment, modification or supplement to the Hotel Operating Lease entered into by Borrower, together with written certification from an officer of Borrower which confirms that (x) the copy delivered is a true, complete and correct copy of such termination, amendment, modification or supplement and (y) Borrower has satisfied all conditions of this Section; provided, however, that Borrower shall be permitted, without any approval of Lender, to make (I) non-material amendments, modifications or supplements to the Hotel Operating Lease and (II) such other amendments, modifications or supplements to the Hotel Operating Lease which modify, change or adjust the amounts payable by Hotel Operator to Hotel Owner, extend the term thereof, or which are otherwise necessary or appropriate in order for Hotel Operator to qualify and/or be treated as a “taxable REIT subsidiary” under the Code and/or for FelCor REIT to qualify and/or be treated as a “real estate investment trust” under the Code, provided that, in each case, such amendments, modifications or supplements do not result in an Event of Default (or an event which but for the passage of time or the giving of notice or both would constitute an Event of Default), violate or result in a breach of the Management Agreement, invalidate or adversely affect the rights of Lender under the Assignment of Management Agreement, or result in a material adverse effect on (A) the business operations, economic performance, assets,

-55-


 

financial condition, equity, contingent liabilities, material agreements or results of operations of Borrower (collectively) or the Property, (B) the enforceability or validity of any Loan Document, the perfection or priority of any Lien created under any Loan Document or the remedies of Lender under any Loan Document, (C) the ability of Borrower to perform, in all material respects, its obligations under each of the Loan Documents, or (D) the value of, or cash flow from the Property.

          5.1.21 Alterations. Borrower shall obtain Lender’s prior consent to any material alterations to any Improvements, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender’s consent shall not be required in connection with any alterations that will not have a material adverse effect on Borrower’s financial condition, the value of the Property or the Net Operating Income, provided that such alterations (a) are made in connection with tenant improvement work performed pursuant to the terms of any Lease, (b) do not materially adversely affect any structural component of any Improvements, any utility or HVAC system contained in any Improvements or the exterior of any building constituting a part of any Improvements and the aggregate cost thereof does not exceed the Alteration Threshold Amount, (c) are performed in connection with the Restoration of the Property after the occurrence of a Casualty or Condemnation in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement, (d) are made pursuant to and in accordance with the Management Agreement, or (e) are made in connection with the PIP Requirements or otherwise constitute Required Repairs. To the extent Lender’s prior written approval is required pursuant to this Section 5.1.21, Lender shall have fifteen (15) Business Days from receipt of written request and any and all reasonably required information and documentation relating thereto in which to approve or disapprove such request and such written request shall state thereon in bold letters of 14 point font or larger that action is required by Lender. If Lender fails to approve or disapprove the request within such fifteen (15) Business Days, Lender’s approval shall be deemed given. Should Lender fail to approve any such request, Lender shall give Borrower written notice setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for such disapproval. In no event shall Lender require any “consent fee” as a condition to any required approval. If the total unpaid amounts due and payable with respect to alterations to the Improvements at the Property (other than such amounts to be paid or reimbursed by tenants under the Leases) shall at any time exceed the Alteration Threshold Amount, Borrower shall promptly deliver to Lender as security for the payment of such amounts and as additional security for Borrower’s obligations under the Loan Documents any of the following: (A) cash, (B) U.S. Obligations, (C) other securities having a rating acceptable to Lender and that the applicable Rating Agencies have confirmed in writing will not, in and of itself, result in a downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of the initial, or, if higher, then current ratings assigned to any Securities or any class thereof in connection with any Securitization, or (D) a completion and performance bond or an irrevocable letter of credit (payable on sight draft only) issued by a financial institution having a rating by S&P of not less than “A-1+” if the term of such bond or letter of credit is no longer than three (3) months or, if such term is in excess of three (3) months, issued by a financial institution having a rating that is acceptable to Lender and that the applicable Rating Agencies have confirmed in writing will not, in and of itself, result in a downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of the initial, or, if higher, then current ratings assigned to any Securities or any class thereof in connection with any

-56-


 

Securitization. Such security shall be in an amount equal to the excess of the total unpaid amounts with respect to alterations to the Improvements on the Property (other than such amounts to be paid or reimbursed by tenants under the Leases) over the Alteration Threshold Amount and during the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender may apply such security from time to time at the option of Lender to pay for such alterations.
          5.1.22 Operation of Property. (a) Borrower shall cause the Property to be operated, in all material respects, in accordance with the Management Agreement. In the event that the Management Agreement expires or is terminated (without limiting any obligation of Borrower to obtain Lender’s consent to any termination or modification of the Management Agreement, if applicable, in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement), Borrower shall promptly enter into a Replacement Management Agreement with Manager or another Qualified Manager, as applicable.
          (b) Borrower shall: (i) promptly perform and/or observe, in all material respects, all of the covenants and agreements required to be performed and observed by it under the Management Agreement and do all things necessary to preserve and to keep unimpaired its material rights thereunder; (ii) promptly notify Lender of any material default under the Management Agreement of which it is aware; (iii) promptly deliver to Lender a copy of each financial statement, business plan, capital expenditures plan, notice, report and estimate received by it under the Management Agreement; and (iv) enforce the performance and observance of all of the material covenants and agreements required to be performed and/or observed by Manager under the Management Agreement, in a commercially reasonable manner.

          (a) Borrower shall, at its sole cost and expense, promptly and timely perform and observe all the material terms, covenants and conditions required to be performed and observed by Borrower as lessee under the Ground Lease (including, but not limited to, the payment of all rent, additional rent, percentage rent and other charges required to be paid under the Ground Lease).
          (b) If Borrower shall be in default under the Ground Lease, then, subject to the terms of the Ground Lease, Borrower shall grant Lender the right (but not the obligation), to cause the default or defaults under the Ground Lease to be remedied and otherwise exercise any and all rights of Borrower under the Ground Lease, as may be necessary to prevent or cure any default provided such actions are necessary to protect Lender’s interest under the Loan Documents, and, subject to the terms of the Management Agreement, Lender shall have the right upon reasonable prior written notice to enter all or any portion of the Property at such times and in such manner as Lender deems necessary to cure any such default.
          (c) The actions or payments of Lender to cure any default by Borrower under the Ground Lease shall not remove or waive, as between Borrower and Lender, the default that occurred under this Agreement by virtue of the default by Borrower under the Ground Lease. All sums expended by Lender to cure any such default shall be paid by Borrower to Lender, within ten (10) days of demand, with interest on such sum at the rate set forth in this Agreement

-57-

          (d) Borrower shall notify Lender promptly in writing of the occurrence of any material default by the lessor under the Ground Lease and the receipt by Borrower of any notice (written or otherwise) from the Ground Lessor noting or claiming the occurrence of any default by Borrower under the Ground Lease. Borrower shall promptly deliver to Lender a copy of any such written notice of default.
          (e) Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain from the Ground Lessor and furnish to Lender within thirty (30) days of receipt of written request, the estoppel certificate of the Ground Lessor stating the date through which rent has been paid and whether or not there are any defaults thereunder and specifying the nature of such claimed defaults, if any, provided that Borrower shall not be required to use such commercially reasonable efforts to obtain and deliver such certificate more frequently than once in any calendar year.
          (f) Borrower shall within ten (10) Business Days execute, acknowledge and deliver to Lender such instruments as may reasonably be required to permit Lender to cure any default under the Ground Lease if not so timely cured by Borrower or permit Lender to take such other action required to enable Lender to cure or remedy the matter in default and preserve the security interest of Lender under the Loan Documents with respect to the Property. Upon the failure of Borrower to execute, acknowledge or deliver such instruments within such ten (10) Business Day period, Borrower irrevocably appoints Lender as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact to do any and all acts and to execute any and all documents that are necessary to preserve any rights of Borrower under or with respect to the Ground Lease, including, without limitation, the right to effectuate any extension or renewal of the Ground Lease, or to preserve any rights of Borrower whatsoever in respect of any part of the Ground Lease (and the above powers granted to Lender are coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable), provided that the same do not subject Borrower to any increased liabilities thereunder.
          (g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement with respect to the Ground Lease:
     (i) The lien of the Mortgage attaches to all of Borrower’s rights and remedies at any time arising under or pursuant to Subsection 365(h) of the Bankruptcy Code, including, without limitation, all of Borrower’s rights, as debtor, to remain in possession of the Property.

Lender and Borrower shall proceed jointly or in the name of Borrower in respect of any claim, suit,

-58-


 

action or proceeding relating to the rejection of the Ground Lease, including, without limitation, the right to file and prosecute any proofs of claim, complaints, motions, applications, notices and other documents in any case in respect of lessor under the Bankruptcy Code. This assignment constitutes a present, irrevocable and unconditional assignment of the foregoing claims, rights and remedies, and shall continue in effect until all of the Debt shall have been satisfied and discharged in full. Any amounts received by Lender or Borrower as damages arising out of the rejection of the Ground Lease as aforesaid shall be applied to all actual out-of-pocket costs and reasonable expenses of Lender (including, without limitation, attorney’s fees and costs) incurred in connection with the exercise of any of its rights or remedies in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement.
     (iv) If, pursuant to subsection 365(h) of the Bankruptcy Code, Borrower seeks to offset, against the rent reserved in the Ground Lease, the amount of any damages caused by the nonperformance by the lessor of any of its obligations thereunder after the rejection by the Ground Lessor under the Bankruptcy Code, then Borrower shall not effect any offset of the amounts so objected to by Lender. If Lender has failed to object as aforesaid within ten (10) days after notice from Borrower in accordance with the first sentence of this subsection, Borrower may proceed to offset the amounts set forth in Borrower’s notice.

Borrower shall promptly deliver to Lender any and all notices, summonses, pleadings, applications and other documents received by Borrower in connection with any such petition and any proceedings relating to such petition.

     (iv) maintain the Hotel Operating Lease in full force and effect during the term of the Loan.

From the Assumption Date until payment and performance in full of all obligations of Borrower under the Loan Documents or the earlier release of the Lien of the Mortgage in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, Borrower covenants and agrees with Lender that it will not do, directly or indirectly, any of the following:

(a) Borrower shall not, without Lender’s prior consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed): (i) surrender, terminate or cancel the Management Agreement; provided, that Borrower may, without Lender’s consent, replace the Manager so long as the replacement manager is a Qualified Manager pursuant to a Replacement Management Agreement; (ii) reduce or consent to the reduction of the term of the Management Agreement; (iii) increase or consent to the increase of the amount of any charges under the Management Agreement; or (iv) otherwise modify, change, supplement, alter or amend, or waive or release any of its rights and remedies under, the Management Agreement in any material respect.
          (b) Following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Borrower shall not exercise any rights, make any decisions, grant any approvals or otherwise take any action under the Management Agreement without the prior consent of Lender, which consent may be withheld in Lender’s sole discretion.
          5.2.2 Liens. Borrower shall not create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien on any portion of the Property or knowingly permit any such action to be taken, except: (i) Permitted Encumbrances; (ii) Liens created by or permitted pursuant to the Loan Documents; (iii) Liens for Taxes or Other Charges not yet due; and (iv) Liens arising in connection with equipment leases entered into in the ordinary course of the operation of the Property to the extent

          5.2.4 Change in Business. Borrower shall not enter into any line of business other than the ownership and operation of the Property, or make any material change in the scope or nature of its business objectives, purposes or operations, or undertake or participate in a material manner in activities other than the continuance of its present business. For purposes of clarification (and not as a sole example), Borrower’s present business includes operating a marina at the Property, involving slips and marina club members, and changes to the marina club membership program would not constitute a breach of this Section 5.2.4, although under no circumstance would such members be given direct or indirect equity or other interests in the Property under any such membership program.
          5.2.5 Debt Cancellation. Borrower shall not cancel or otherwise forgive or release any material claim or debt (other than termination of Leases in accordance herewith) owed to Borrower by any Person, except for adequate consideration and in the ordinary course of Borrower’s business.
          5.2.6 Zoning. Borrower shall not initiate or consent to any zoning reclassification of any portion of the Property or seek any variance under any existing zoning ordinance or use or permit the use of any portion of the Property in any manner that could result in such use becoming a non-conforming use under any zoning ordinance or any other applicable land use law, rule or regulation, without the prior consent of Lender not to be unreasonably withheld.
          5.2.7 Removal of FF&E. Except in the ordinary course of business, Borrower shall not remove or transfer any material article of FF&E or other personal property owned by Borrower used in the operation of the Property unless the same is replaced with substantially similar FF&E, without the prior written consent of Lender in each instance, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. To the extent Lender’s prior written approval is required pursuant to this Section 5.2.7, Lender shall endeavor to respond to a request for Lender’s approval within ten (10) Business Days after Borrower’s written request therefore, delivered together with any documents or information required to be provided by Borrower hereunder in connection with Lender’s review of the proposed action or matter. If the correspondence from Borrower requesting such approval contains the following statement at the top of the first page thereof in capitalized, boldfaced, 14 point type lettering: “IF YOU FAIL TO RESPOND TO OR TO EXPRESSLY DENY THIS REQUEST FOR APPROVAL IN WRITING WITHIN TEN (10) BUSINESS DAYS, YOUR APPROVAL SHALL BE DEEMED GIVEN”, and if Lender shall fail to respond to or to expressly deny such request for

-61-


 

approval in writing (stating in reasonable detail the reason for such disapproval) within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of Borrower’s written request therefor together with the documents and information required above and any other information reasonably requested by Lender in writing prior to the expiration of such ten (10) Business Day period in order to adequately review the same, then Lender’s approval shall be deemed given.
          5.2.8 Principal Place of Business and Organization. Borrower shall not change its principal place of business set forth in the introductory paragraph of this Agreement without first giving Lender thirty (30) days prior notice. Borrower shall not change the place of its organization as set forth in Section 4.1.28 without the consent of Lender, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Upon Lender’s request, Borrower shall execute and deliver additional financing statements, security agreements and other instruments which may be necessary to effectively evidence or perfect Lender’s security interest in the Property as a result of such change of principal place of business or place of organization.
          5.2.9 ERISA. (a) Assuming that Lender is not, and is not lending the assets of, an “employee benefit plan” as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA, Borrower shall not engage in any transaction which would cause any obligation, or action taken or to be taken, hereunder (or the exercise by Lender of any of its rights under the Note, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents) to be a non-exempt (under a statutory or administrative class exemption) prohibited transaction under ERISA.
          (b) Borrower shall deliver to Lender such certifications or other evidence from time to time throughout the term of the Loan, as requested by Lender in its sole discretion, that (i) Borrower is not an “employee benefit plan” as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA, which is subject to Title I of ERISA, or a “governmental plan” within the meaning of Section 3(32) of ERISA; (ii) none of the assets of Borrower constitute “plan assets” within the meaning of Section 3(3) of ERISA for purposes of any state law provisions regulating investments of, or fiduciary obligations with respect to, governmental plans; and (iii) one or more of the following circumstances is true:

          5.2.10 Transfers. (a) Borrower acknowledges that Lender has examined and relied on the experience of Borrower and its general partners, members, principals and (if Borrower is a trust) beneficial owners in owning and operating properties such as the Property in agreeing to make the Loan, and will continue to rely on Borrower’s ownership of the Property as a means of maintaining the value of the Property as security for repayment of the Debt and the

-62-


 

performance of the obligations contained in the Loan Documents. Borrower acknowledges that Lender has a valid interest in maintaining the value of the Property so as to ensure that, should Borrower default in the repayment of the Debt or the performance of the obligations contained in the Loan Documents, Lender can recover the Debt by a sale of the Property.
          (b) Without the prior consent of Lender and except to the extent otherwise set forth in this Section 5.2.10, Borrower shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Party to, (i) sell, convey, mortgage, grant, bargain, encumber, pledge, assign, grant options with respect to, or otherwise transfer or dispose of (directly or indirectly, voluntarily or involuntarily, by operation of law or otherwise, and whether or not for consideration or of record) the Property or any part thereof or any legal or beneficial interest therein, other than pursuant to Leases of space in the Improvements to tenants in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.1.20, or (ii) permit a Sale or Pledge of any direct or indirect interest in any Borrower or other Restricted Party (any of the acts set forth in clause (i) or (ii) being referred to herein collectively as a “Transfer”) except as permitted under, and subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in, Section 5.2.10(d) below.

the other Loan Documents, together with such legal opinions and title insurance endorsements as may be reasonably requested by Lender;
     (vii) Lender shall have received from Borrower or Transferee on or prior to the date of the sale or transfer (A) an assumption fee equal to one percent (1.0%) of the Loan amount, (B) a rating confirmation fee for each of the Rating Agencies delivering a confirmation pursuant to clause (iv) above, which confirmation fees shall be equal to the then customary fees charged by each applicable Rating Agency for such a confirmation and (C) the payment of all out-of-pocket third-party costs and expenses incurred by Lender, Servicer and the Rating Agencies in connection with such assumption (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs); and

     (viii) the final capital structure of the Subordinate Mezzanine Loan is subject in all respects to the Rating Agencies’ approval and to Lender’s reasonable approval, including, without limitation, any changes to the organizational structure of Borrower.

Any acquisition of Ground Lessor’s interest in any Ground Lease by Borrower or any Affiliate of Borrower shall be accomplished by Borrower in such a manner so as to avoid a merger of the interests of lessor and lessee in such Ground Lease, unless consent to such merger is granted by Lender.
          VI. INSURANCE; CASUALTY; CONDEMNATION; RESTORATION

-67-


 

the Property is repaired or replaced and operations are resumed, whichever first occurs, and notwithstanding that the policy may expire prior to the end of such period; and (D) in an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the projected gross income from the Property for a period of eighteen (18) months from the date of such Casualty (assuming such Casualty had not occurred) and notwithstanding that the policy may expire at the end of such period. The amount of such business income insurance shall be determined prior to the date hereof and at least once each year thereafter based on Borrower’s reasonable estimate of the gross income from the Property for the succeeding eighteen (18) month period.

     (iv) at all times during which structural construction, repairs or alterations are being made with respect to the Improvements, and only if the Property coverage form does not otherwise apply, (A) contractor’s liability insurance covering claims not covered by or under the terms or provisions of the above mentioned commercial general liability insurance policy; and (B) the insurance provided for in subsection (i) above written in a so-called builder’s risk completed value form (1) on a non-reporting basis, (2) against all risks insured against pursuant to subsection (i) above, (3) including permission to occupy the Property, and (4) with an agreed amount endorsement waiving co-insurance provisions;

     (x) the commercial property, commercial general liability and business income insurance required under Sections 6.1 (a) above shall cover perils of terrorism and acts of terrorism and Borrower shall maintain commercial property and business income insurance for loss resulting from perils and acts of terrorism on terms (including amounts) consistent with those required under Sections 6.1(a) above at all times during the term of the Loan, provided, however, if Borrower is unable to obtain such terrorism coverage under a blanket policy, Borrower shall acquire a separate stand-alone policy providing such coverage as is available at a premium cost up to but not in excess of two hundred percent (200%) of the cost for such coverage as of the Closing Date, provided that the amount of such coverage shall not be required to exceed the amount of the Loan; and
     (xi) upon sixty (60) days’ notice, such other reasonable insurance and in such reasonable amounts as Lender from time to time may reasonably request against such other insurable hazards which at the time are commonly insured against for property similar to the Property located in or around the region in which the Property is located.
          (b) All property insurance provided for in Section 6.1(a) shall be obtained under valid and enforceable policies (collectively, the “Policies” or in the singular, the “Policy”), and shall be subject to the reasonable approval of Lender.

The Policies shall be issued by financially sound and responsible insurance companies authorized to do business in the State and having a claims paying ability rating of “A” or better (and the equivalent thereof) by at least two (2) of the Rating Agencies rating the Securities (one of which shall be S&P if they are rating the Securities and one of which will be Moody’s if they are rating the Securities), or if only one Rating Agency is rating the Securities, then only by such Rating Agency; provided, however, if five (5) or more insurance companies issue the Policies required hereunder, and at least sixty percent (60%) of the applicable insurance coverage is provided by insurance companies having a claims paying ability of “A” or better (and the equivalent thereof), then the remaining forty percent (40%) or less of the applicable insurance coverage required hereunder may be provided by insurance companies having a claims paying ability of “BBB” or better (and the equivalent thereof). The Policies described in Section 6.1(a) (other than those strictly limited to liability protection) shall designate Lender as loss payee. Not less than five (5) Business Days prior to the expiration dates of the Policies theretofore furnished to Lender, certificates of insurance evidencing the Policies

-69-


 

accompanied by evidence satisfactory to Lender of payment of the premiums due thereunder (the “Insurance Premiums”), shall be delivered by Borrower to Lender.
          (c) Any blanket insurance Policy shall substantially fulfill the requirements contained herein and shall otherwise provide the same protection as would a separate Policy insuring only the Property in compliance with the provisions of Section 6.1(a).
          (d) All Policies provided for or contemplated by Section 6.1(a), except for the Policy referenced in Section 6.l(a)(v), shall name Borrower as the insured and Lender as the additional insured, as its interests may appear, and in the case of property damage, boiler and machinery, flood and earthquake insurance, shall contain a so-called New York standard non-contributing mortgagee clause in favor of Lender providing that the loss thereunder shall be payable to Lender. Any insurance maintained by Manager pursuant to the Management Agreement shall name Borrower and Lender as additional insureds (or mortgagee, as applicable), as their interests may appear.
          (e) All property Policies provided for in Section 6.1 shall contain clauses or endorsements to the effect that:
     (i) no act or negligence of Borrower, or anyone acting for Borrower, or of any tenant or other occupant, or failure to comply with the provisions of any Policy, which might otherwise result in a forfeiture of the insurance or any part thereof, shall in any way affect the validity or enforceability of the insurance insofar as Lender is concerned;
     (ii) the Policies shall not be materially changed (other than to increase the coverage provided thereby) or canceled without at least thirty (30) days’ notice to Lender; and
     (iii) Lender shall not be liable for any Insurance Premiums thereon or subject to any assessments thereunder.
          (f) If at any time Lender is not in receipt of written evidence that all Policies are in full force and effect, Lender shall have the right, after five (5) Business Days written notice to Borrower, to take such reasonable action as Lender deems necessary to protect its interest in the Property, including, without limitation, the obtaining of such insurance coverage as Lender in its sole discretion deems appropriate. All premiums incurred by Lender in connection with such action or in obtaining such insurance and keeping it in effect shall be paid by Borrower to Lender within ten (10) days demand and, until paid, shall be secured by the Mortgage and shall bear interest at the Default Rate from the date of demand.
          Section 6.2. Casualty. If the Property shall be damaged or destroyed, in whole or in part, by fire or other casualty (a “Casualty”), Borrower shall give prompt notice of such damage to Lender and shall promptly commence and diligently prosecute the completion of the Restoration of the Property as nearly as possible to the condition the Property was in immediately prior to such Casualty, with such alterations as may be reasonably approved by Lender and otherwise in accordance with Section 6.4, provided, that if (A) Lender is obligated to make Net Proceeds available to Borrower for purposes of restoration in accordance with Section

-70-


 

6.4, (B) Lender has received such Net Proceeds and (C) Lender has not made such Net Proceeds available to Borrower, then Borrower shall not be required to repair and restore the Property. It being understood, however, that Borrower shall not be obligated to restore the Property to the precise condition of the Property prior to such Casualty provided the Property is restored, to the extent practicable, to be of at least equal value and of substantially the same character as prior to the Casualty. Borrower shall pay all costs of such Restoration whether or not such costs are covered by insurance. Lender may, but shall not be obligated to make proof of loss if not made promptly by Borrower. In addition, Lender may participate in any settlement discussions with any insurance companies (and shall approve any final settlement) with respect to any Casualty in which the Net Proceeds or the costs of completing the Restoration are equal to or greater than the Restoration Threshold and Borrower shall deliver to Lender all instruments reasonably required by Lender to permit such participation. In the event of a Casualty in which the Net Proceeds and the costs of completing the Restoration are each less than the Restoration Threshold, Borrower may settle and adjust such claim without Lender’s consent or participation.
          Section 6.3. Condemnation. Borrower shall promptly give Lender notice of the actual or threatened commencement of any proceeding for the Condemnation of the Property and shall deliver to Lender copies of any and all papers served in connection with such proceedings. Lender may participate in any such proceedings, and Borrower shall from time to time deliver to Lender all instruments reasonably requested by it to permit such participation. Borrower shall, at its expense, diligently prosecute any such proceedings, and shall consult with Lender, its attorneys and experts, and cooperate with them in the carrying on or defense of any such proceedings. Notwithstanding any taking by any public or quasi-public authority through Condemnation or otherwise (including, but not limited to, any transfer made in lieu of or in anticipation of the exercise of such taking), Borrower shall continue to pay the Debt at the time and in the manner provided for its payment in the Note and in this Agreement and the Debt shall not be reduced until any Award shall have been actually received and applied by Lender, after the deduction of expenses of collection, to the reduction or discharge of the Debt. Lender shall not be limited to the interest paid on the Award by the condemning authority but shall be entitled to receive out of the Award interest at the rate or rates provided herein or in the Note. If the Property or any portion thereof is taken by a condemning authority, Borrower shall promptly commence and diligently prosecute the Restoration of the Property and otherwise comply with the provisions of Section 6.4, provided, that if (A) Lender is obligated to make Net Proceeds available to Borrower for purposes of restoration in accordance with Section 6.4, (B) Lender has received such Net Proceeds and (C) Lender has not made such Net Proceeds available to Borrower, then Borrower shall not be obligated to repair and restore the Property. If the Property is sold, through foreclosure or otherwise, prior to the receipt by Lender of the Award, Lender shall have the right, whether or not a deficiency judgment on the Note shall have been sought, recovered or denied, to receive the Award, or a portion thereof sufficient to pay the Debt.
          Section 6.4. Restoration. The following provisions shall apply in connection with the Restoration:
          (a) If the Net Proceeds shall be less than the Restoration Threshold and the costs of completing the Restoration shall be less than the Restoration Threshold, the Net Proceeds will be disbursed by Lender to Borrower upon receipt, provided that each of the conditions set forth in Section 6.4(b)(i)(A), (B), (D), (F)(2), (3) and (4), (G), (H) and (I) are met

-71-


 

and Borrower delivers to Lender a written undertaking to expeditiously commence and to satisfactorily complete with due diligence the Restoration in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
          (b) If the Net Proceeds are equal to or greater than the Restoration Threshold or the costs of completing the Restoration is equal to or greater than the Restoration Threshold, the Net Proceeds will be held by Lender and Lender shall make the Net Proceeds available for the Restoration in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.4. The term “Net Proceeds” for purposes of this Section 6.4 shall mean: (i) the net amount of all insurance proceeds received by Lender pursuant to Section 6.1 (a)(i), (iv), (vi), (ix) and (x) as a result of such damage or destruction, after deduction of its reasonable costs and expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable counsel fees), if any, in collecting same (“Insurance Proceeds”), or (ii) the net amount of the Award, after deduction of its reasonable costs and expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable counsel fees), if any, in collecting same (“Condemnation Proceeds”), whichever the case may be.
     (i) Subject to the provisions of Section 6.4(a) above, the Net Proceeds shall be made available to Borrower for Restoration upon the approval of Lender in its reasonable discretion that the following conditions are met:
     (A) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing;
     (B) (1) in the event the Net Proceeds are Insurance Proceeds, either (x) less than thirty percent (30%) of the total floor area of the Improvements on the Property has been damaged, destroyed or rendered unusable as a result of such Casualty or (y) the costs of completing the Restoration are less than forty percent (40%) of the full replacement cost, or (2) in the event the Net Proceeds are Condemnation Proceeds, less than ten percent (10%) of the land constituting the Property is taken, and such land is located along the perimeter or periphery of the Property, and no portion of the Improvements is located on such land;
     (C) intentionally omitted;
     (D) Borrower shall commence the Restoration as soon as reasonably practicable (but in no event later than sixty (60) days after such Casualty or Condemnation, whichever the case may be, occurs) and shall diligently pursue the same to satisfactory completion;
     (E) Lender shall be satisfied that any operating deficits, including all scheduled payments of principal and interest under the Note, which will be incurred with respect to the Property as a result of the occurrence of any such Casualty or Condemnation, whichever the case may be, will be covered out of the aggregate amount of (l) the Net Proceeds, (2) the insurance coverage referred to in Section 6.l(a)(iii), if applicable, and (3) by other funds of Borrower;
     (F) Lender shall be satisfied that the Restoration will be completed on or before the earliest to occur of (1) three (3) months prior to the Maturity Date (as may be extended), (2) the earliest date required for such completion under the terms of the

-72-


 

Management Agreement, (3) such time as may be required under applicable Legal Requirements or (4) the expiration of the insured period provided by the insurance coverage referred to in Section 6.1(a)(iii);
     (G) the Property and the use thereof after the Restoration will be in compliance in all material respects with and permitted under all applicable Legal Requirements;
     (H) the Restoration shall be done and completed by Borrower in an expeditious and diligent fashion and in compliance with all applicable Legal Requirements;
     (I) such Casualty or Condemnation, as applicable, does not result in the loss of access to the Property or the related Improvements;
     (J) intentionally omitted;
     (K) the Loan-to-Value Ratio, after giving effect to the Restoration, shall be equal to or less than eighty percent (80%);
     (L) Borrower shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Lender a signed detailed budget approved in writing by Borrower’s architect or engineer stating the entire cost of completing the Restoration, which budget shall be reasonably acceptable to Lender; and
     (M) the Net Proceeds together with any cash or cash equivalent deposited by Borrower with Lender are sufficient in Lender’s reasonable discretion to cover the cost of the Restoration.
     (ii) In the event the Net Proceeds are equal to or exceed the Restoration Threshold, the Net Proceeds shall be held by Lender in an interest-bearing account and, until disbursed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.4(b), shall constitute additional security for the Debt and other obligations under the Loan Documents. The Net Proceeds shall be disbursed by Lender to, or as directed by, Borrower from time to time during the course of the Restoration, upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to Lender that (A) all materials installed and work and labor performed (except to the extent that they are to be paid for out of the requested disbursement) in connection with the Restoration have been paid for in full, and (B) there exist no notices of pendency, stop orders, mechanic’s or materialman’s liens or notices of intention to file same, or any other liens or encumbrances of any nature whatsoever on the Property arising out of the Restoration which have not either been fully bonded to the satisfaction of Lender and discharged of record or in the alternative fully insured to the satisfaction of Lender by the title company issuing the Title Insurance Policy.
     (iii) In the event the Net Proceeds are equal to or exceed the Restoration Threshold, all plans and specifications required in connection with the Restoration shall be subject to prior reasonable approval by Lender and by an independent consulting engineer selected by Lender (the “Casualty Consultant”). Lender shall have the use of

-73-


 

the plans and specifications and all permits, licenses and approvals required or obtained in connection with the Restoration. The identity of the contractors, subcontractors and materialmen engaged in the Restoration the cost of which is greater than $25,000, as well as the contracts under which they have been engaged, shall be subject to prior review and reasonable acceptance by Lender and the Casualty Consultant. All out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with making the Net Proceeds available for the Restoration including, without limitation, reasonable counsel fees and disbursements and the Casualty Consultant’s fees, shall be paid by Borrower.
     (iv) In the event the Net Proceeds are equal to or exceed the Restoration Threshold, in no event shall Lender be obligated to make disbursements of the Net Proceeds in excess of an amount equal to the costs actually incurred from time to time for work in place as part of the Restoration, as certified by the Casualty Consultant, minus the Casualty Retainage. The term “Casualty Retainage” shall mean an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the costs actually incurred for work in place as part of the Restoration, as certified by the Casualty Consultant, until the Restoration has been completed. The Casualty Retainage shall be reduced to five percent (5%) of the costs incurred for work upon receipt by Lender of reasonably satisfactory evidence that fifty percent (50%) of the Restoration has been completed. The Casualty Retainage shall in no event, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above in this Section 6.4(b), be less than the amount actually held back by Borrower from contractors, subcontractors and materialmen engaged in the Restoration. The Casualty Retainage shall not be released until the Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender that the Restoration has been completed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.4(b) and that all approvals necessary for the re-occupancy and use of the Property have been obtained from all appropriate governmental and quasi-governmental authorities, and Lender receives evidence reasonably satisfactory to Lender that the costs of the Restoration have been paid in full or will be paid in full out of the Casualty Retainage; provided, however, that Lender will release the portion of the Casualty Retainage being held with respect to any contractor, subcontractor or materialman engaged in the Restoration as of the date upon which the Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender that the contractor, subcontractor or materialman has satisfactorily completed all work and has supplied all materials in accordance with the provisions of the contractor’s, subcontractor’s or materialman’s contract, the contractor, subcontractor or materialman delivers the lien waivers and evidence of payment in full of all sums due to the contractor, subcontractor or materialman as may be reasonably requested by Lender or by the title company issuing the Title Insurance Policy, and Lender receives an endorsement to the Title Insurance Policy insuring the continued priority of the lien of the Mortgage and evidence of payment of any premium payable for such endorsement. If required by Lender, the release of any such portion of the Casualty Retainage shall be approved by the surety company, if any, which has issued a payment or performance bond with respect to the contractor, subcontractor or materialman.
     (v) Lender shall not be obligated to make disbursements of the Net Proceeds more frequently than once every calendar month.

-74-


 

     (vi) In the event the Net Proceeds are equal to or exceed the Restoration Threshold, if at any time the Net Proceeds or the undisbursed balance thereof shall not, in the good faith opinion of Lender in consultation with the Casualty Consultant, be sufficient to pay in full the balance of the costs which are estimated by the Casualty Consultant to be incurred in connection with the completion of the Restoration, Borrower shall deposit the deficiency (the “Net Proceeds Deficiency”) with Lender before any further disbursement of the Net Proceeds shall be made. The Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited with Lender shall be held by Lender and shall be disbursed for costs actually incurred in connection with the Restoration on the same conditions applicable to the disbursement of the Net Proceeds, and until so disbursed pursuant to this Section 6.4(b) shall constitute additional security for the Debt and other obligations under the Loan Documents.
     (vii) The excess, if any, of the Net Proceeds and the remaining balance, if any, of the Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited with Lender after the Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender that the Restoration has been completed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.4(b) and the receipt by Lender of evidence reasonably satisfactory to Lender that all costs incurred in connection with the Restoration have been paid in full, shall be remitted by Lender to Borrower, provided no Event of Default shall have occurred and shall be continuing.
          (c) All Net Proceeds not required (i) to be made available for the Restoration or (ii) to be returned to Borrower as excess Net Proceeds pursuant to Section 6.4(b)(vii) may be retained and applied by Lender in accordance with Section 2.4.2 hereof toward the payment of the Debt whether or not then due and payable in such order, priority and proportions as Lender in its sole discretion shall deem proper, or, at the discretion of Lender, the same may be paid, either in whole or in part, to Borrower for such purposes as Lender shall approve, in its discretion. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if Lender is obligated under this Agreement to disburse the Net Proceeds to Borrower for Restoration, and if Lender fails to do so, then any obligation of Borrower to restore or repair the Property under the Loan Documents shall not apply until such Net Proceeds have been disbursed to Borrower.
          (d) In the event of foreclosure of the Mortgage, or other transfer of title to the Property in extinguishment in whole or in part of the Debt all right, title and interest of Borrower in and to the Policies that are not blanket Policies then in force concerning the Property and all proceeds payable thereunder shall thereupon vest in the purchaser at such foreclosure or Lender or other transferee in the event of such other transfer of title.
          VII. RESERVE FUNDS
          Section 7.1. Required Repair Funds.
          7.1.1 Deposits. Borrower shall perform, or course to be performed, the maintenance, repairs, environmental remediation and PIP Requirements at the Property as more particularly set forth on Schedule II hereto (such maintenance, repairs and environmental remediation hereinafter, collectively, referred to as “Required Repairs”) in accordance with all applicable provisions of the Management Agreement. Borrower shall complete (x) the PIP

-75-


 

Requirements in accordance with the applicable deadlines set forth in the Management Agreement and (y) the Required Repairs (other than the PIP Requirements) within twelve (12) months of the Closing Date subject to Excusable Delay. It shall be an Event of Default under this Agreement if after notice from Lender and a thirty (30) day cure period has elapsed or such longer period as is reasonably necessary to effectuate such cure provided that Borrower is diligently proceeding to cure, Borrower does not complete the Required Repairs by the required deadline for each repair as set forth above. On the Closing Date, Prior Owner deposited with Lender the amount of One Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($100,000.00), which amount so deposited with Lender shall be held by Lender in accordance with Section 7.5 hereof. Amounts so deposited shall hereinafter be referred to as Borrower’s “Required Repair Fund” and the account in which such amounts are held shall hereinafter be referred to as Borrower’s “Required Repair Account”. As of the Assumption Date, the amount held in the Required Repair Fund is $100,527.88.
          7.1.2 Release of Required Repair Funds. Lender shall disburse to Borrower the Required Repair Funds from the Required Repair Account not later than ten (10) Business Days after Borrower has submitted evidence of satisfaction by Borrower of each of the following conditions: (a) Borrower shall submit a written request for payment to Lender at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the date on which Borrower requests such payment be made, (b) on the date such request is received by Lender and on the date such payment is to be made, no Event of Default shall exist and remain uncured, (c) Lender shall have received reasonably satisfactory evidence, which evidence shall include a “no further action” letter or the equivalent letter or evidence of “case closed” status issued by the appropriate regulatory authority, if available, that the cleanup of the two (2) former underground storage tanks at the Property has been completed and that the two (2) groundwater monitoring wells have been properly abandoned.
          Section 7.2. Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund. Borrower shall pay to Lender on each Payment Date (a) one-twelfth of the Taxes that Lender estimates will be payable during the next ensuing twelve (12) months in order to accumulate with Lender sufficient funds to pay all such Taxes at least fifteen (15) days prior to their respective dates of delinquency, and (b) one-twelfth of the Insurance Premiums that Lender estimates will be payable for the renewal of the coverage afforded by the Policies upon the expiration thereof in order to accumulate with Lender sufficient funds to pay all such Insurance Premiums at least fifteen (15) days prior to the expiration of the Policies (said amounts in (a) and (b) above hereinafter called the “Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund”). Lender will apply the Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund to payments of Taxes and Insurance Premiums required to be made by Borrower pursuant to Section 5.1.2 hereof and under the Mortgage. In making any payment relating to the Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund, Lender may do so according to any bill, statement or estimate procured from the appropriate public office (with respect to Taxes) or insurer or agent (with respect to Insurance Premiums), without inquiry into the accuracy of such bill, statement or estimate or into the validity of any tax, assessment, sale, forfeiture, tax lien or title or claim thereof. If the amount of the Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund shall exceed the amounts due for Taxes and Insurance Premiums pursuant to Section 5.1.2 hereof, Lender shall, in its sole discretion, return any excess to Borrower or credit such excess against future payments to be made to the Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund. To the extent sufficient amounts have been deposited into the Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund with Lender in compliance with this Section 7.2, it shall not be an Event of Default if the Insurance Premiums and/or the Taxes are not paid due to Lender’s failure to apply such

-76-


 

amounts to the payment of the Insurance Premiums and the Taxes on the respective dates on which each are due provided that Borrower has not impeded Lender’s attempt to pay such Insurance Premiums or Taxes. Any amount remaining in the Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund after the Debt has been paid in full shall be returned to Borrower. In allocating such excess, Lender may deal with the Person shown on the records of Lender to be the owner of the Property. If at any time Lender reasonably determines that the Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund is not or will not be sufficient to pay Taxes and Insurance Premiums by the dates set forth in (a) and (b) above, Lender shall notify Borrower of such determination and Borrower shall increase its monthly payments to Lender by the amount that Lender reasonably estimates is sufficient to make up the deficiency at least thirty (30) days prior to the date of delinquency of the Taxes and/or thirty (30) days prior to expiration of the Policies, as the case may be. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 7.2, provided that the Manager of the Property is the Marriott Manager (or an Approved Qualified Manager) and such Marriott Manager (or Approved Qualified Manager) is required to reserve for and pay all Taxes and Insurance Premiums pursuant to the terms of the Management Agreement, then Borrower shall not be required to make any deposits to the Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund. Borrower shall provide Lender with evidence reasonably satisfactory to Lender that all applicable Taxes and Insurance Premiums have been paid when due.
          Section 7.3. Replacements and Replacement Reserve.
          7.3.1 Replacement Reserve Fund. Borrower shall pay (or cause Manager to pay) to Lender on each Payment Date an amount equal to four percent (4%) of Gross Income from Operations for the calendar month occurring two (2) calendar months prior to the calendar month of the applicable Payment Date on which such deposit is required (the “Replacement Reserve Monthly Deposit”) to be applied in accordance with this Agreement to the costs of FF&E Expenditures and FF&E Expenditures Work required to be made to the Property during the calendar year (collectively, the “Replacements”). Amounts so deposited shall hereinafter be referred to as Borrower’s “Replacement Reserve Fund” and the account in which such amounts are held shall hereinafter be referred to as Borrower’s “Replacement Reserve Account”. Notwithstanding the foregoing, provided that the Manager of the Property is the Marriott Manager (or an Approved Qualified Manager) and such Marriott Manager (or Approved Qualified Manager, as applicable) is reserving for the Replacements under the Management Agreement, then Borrower shall not be required to make the Replacement Reserve Monthly Deposits. Borrower shall provide Lender with evidence reasonably satisfactory to Lender that the Marriott Manager (or Approved Qualified Manager, as applicable) is reserving such amounts.
          7.3.2 Disbursements from Replacement Reserve Account. If such Replacement Reserve Fund is required, Lender shall make disbursements from the Replacement Reserve Fund as requested by Borrower or Manager, and reasonably approved by Lender, which approval shall not be unreasonably conditioned, withheld or delayed, no more frequently than once in any thirty (30) day period of no less than Five Thousand Dollars ($5,000) upon delivery by Borrower or Manager of Lender’s standard form of draw request accompanied by information of the type set forth on the sample reserve disbursement request schedule attached hereto as Schedule VII, copies of paid invoices for the amounts requested (with respect to requests in excess of Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000) for a single item) and, if required by Lender for requests in excess of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) for a single item, lien waivers

-77-


 

and releases from all parties furnishing materials and/or services in connection with the requested payment. Lender may require an inspection of the Property at Borrower’s expense prior to making a monthly disbursement in order to verify completion of replacements and repairs of items in excess of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000) for which reimbursement is sought. Lender shall cause the disbursement of the applicable Replacement Reserve Funds within five (5) Business Days after receipt of Borrower’s or Manager’s request and all required documentation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender’s approval of any disbursement from the Replacement Reserve Fund shall not be required and none of the foregoing conditions shall be applicable if (a) the Replacement for which such disbursement is sought is set forth in the Annual Budget, as approved by Lender, if and to the extent, required hereunder and (b) the cost of such Replacement does not cause such Annual Budget, as a whole, to deviate by more than five percent (5%).
          7.3.3 Balance in the Replacement Reserve Account. The insufficiency of any balance in the Replacement Reserve Account shall not relieve Borrower from its obligation to fulfill all preservation and maintenance covenants in the Loan Documents.
          7.3.4 Debt Service Reserve. On the Closing Date, Prior Owner deposited with Lender the amount of $1,000,000.00, which amount so deposited with Lender, together with any additional deposits with Lender pursuant to Section 2.5.2(b)(vi)(A) hereof, shall be held by Lender in accordance with Section 7.5 hereof. As of the Assumption Date, the amount held in the Debt Service Reserve Fund is $88.55. Amounts so deposited shall hereinafter be referred to as Borrower’s “Debt Service Reserve Fund” and the account in which such amounts are held shall hereinafter be referred to as Borrower’s “Debt Service Reserve Account”. Provided no Event of Default exists and is continuing, in the event on any Payment Date the funds available in the Cash Management Account for application on such Payment Date pursuant to Section 2.5.2(b)(ii) are not sufficient to fund the Monthly Debt Service Amount on such Payment Date in full (the amount of insufficiency being herein referred to as the “Payment Date Deficiency” for such Payment Date), then to the extent of funds available in the Debt Service Reserve Account, Lender shall authorize the transfer on such Payment Date from the Debt Service Reserve Account to the Cash Management Account, for application on such Payment Date pursuant to Section 2.5.2(b)(ii) to satisfy the Payment Date Deficiency. To the extent sufficient amounts are available in the Debt Service Reserve Account in accordance with this Section 7.4.3 and Lender is required hereunder to so authorize a transfer on such Payment Date of funds from the Debt Service Reserve Account to the Cash Management Account to satisfy the Payment Date Deficiency but Lender fails to so authorize the same, it shall not be a default or an Event of Default if such Payment Date Deficiency is not paid due to such failure by Lender and, accordingly, no late charges or default interest shall be payable by Borrower. When the Property shall have achieved the Debt Service Coverage Ratio Threshold, then provided no Event of Default exists and is continuing, the balance of the Debt Service Reserve Fund shall be disbursed to Borrower. The Debt Service Coverage Ratio shall be determined as of the end of each calendar quarter upon receipt by Lender from Borrower of such information and documentation concerning operating results at the Property as Lender may reasonably require to determine the same.
          Section 7.4. Ground Lease Reserve Fund.

-78-


 

          7.4.1 Deposits to Ground Lease Fund. On each Payment Date, Borrower or Manager shall pay to Lender one-twelfth of the rents (including both base and additional rents) and other charges due under the Ground Lease that Lender reasonably estimates will be payable by Borrower as lessee under the Ground Lease (collectively, the “Ground Rent”) during the next ensuing twelve (12) months in order to accumulate with Lender sufficient funds to pay all such Ground Rent at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the respective due dates. Amounts so deposited shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Ground Lease Reserve Fund” and the account in which such amounts are held shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Ground Lease Reserve Account”. Notwithstanding the foregoing, provided that (a) the Manager of the Property is the Marriott Manager (or an Approved Qualified Manager) and such Marriott Manager (or Approved Qualified Manager, as applicable) is reserving for the Ground Rent pursuant to the terms of the Management Agreement, and (b) Borrower has deposited with Lender on the Closing Date an amount equal to one month of the Ground Rent due under the Ground Lease (the “Ground Rent Deposit”), then Borrower shall not be required to make the deposits for Ground Rent into the Ground Lease Reserve Account. Borrower shall provide Lender with evidence reasonably satisfactory to Lender that the Ground Rent has been paid when due.
          7.4.2 Release of Ground Lease Reserve Fund. If such Ground Lease Reserve Fund is required, Lender shall apply amounts in the Ground Lease Reserve Fund to the payment of the Ground Rent. In making any payment relating to the Ground Rent, Lender shall do so according to the terms of the Ground Lease or any bill, statement or estimate procured from the lessor under the Ground Lease, and may do so without inquiry into the accuracy of such bill, statement or estimate. If the amount of Ground Lease Reserve Funds shall exceed the amounts due for the Ground Rent under the Ground Lease for the immediately succeeding twelve (12) months as determined by Lender, Lender shall, in its sole discretion, return any excess to Borrower or credit such excess against future payments to be made to the Ground Lease Reserve Fund. Any amounts remaining in the Ground Lease Reserve Fund after the Debt has been paid in full shall be returned to Borrower. If at any time Lender reasonably determines that the Ground Lease Reserve Fund is not or will not be sufficient to pay the Ground Rent by the dates set forth above, Lender shall notify Borrower of such determination and Borrower shall increase its monthly payments to Lender by the amount that Lender reasonably estimates is sufficient to make up the deficiency at least thirty (30) days prior to the due date of the Ground Rent. If a Ground Lease Reserve Fund is required pursuant to this Section 7.4 and provided that there are sufficient funds on deposit in the Ground Lease Reserve Account, Lender shall be responsible for any late fees, penalties or interest resulting from Lender’s failure to apply amounts on deposit in the Ground Lease Reserve Account to the payment of Ground Rent on or before the date due under the Ground Lease.
          Section 7.5. Reserve Funds, Generally. (a) Borrower grants to Lender a first-priority perfected security interest in each of the Reserve Funds held by Lender and any and all monies now or hereafter deposited in each Reserve Fund as additional security for payment of the Debt. Until expended or applied in accordance herewith, the Reserve Funds shall constitute additional security for the Debt. Upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default and acceleration of the Loan as a result thereof, Lender may, in addition to any and all other rights and remedies available to Lender, apply any sums then present in any or all of the Reserve Funds to the payment of the Debt in any order in its sole discretion. The Reserve Funds shall not constitute trust funds and may be commingled with other monies held by Lender. Borrower shall

-79-


 

not, without obtaining the prior consent of Lender, further pledge, assign or grant any security interest in any Reserve Fund or the monies deposited therein or permit any lien or encumbrance to attach thereto, or any levy to be made thereon, or any UCC-1 Financing Statements, except those naming Lender as the secured party, to be filed with respect thereto.
          (b) The Reserve Funds shall be held in an Eligible Account in Permitted Investments pursuant to the Cash Management Agreement. All interest or other earnings on a Reserve Fund (with the exception of the Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund) shall be added to and become a part of such Reserve Fund and shall be disbursed in the same manner as other monies deposited in such Reserve Fund. Borrower shall have the right to direct Lender to invest sums on deposit in the Eligible Account in Permitted Investments provided (i) such investments are then regularly offered by Lender for accounts of this size, category and type, (ii) such investments are permitted by applicable federal, state and local rules, regulations and laws, (iii) the maturity date of the Permitted Investment is not later than the date on which the applicable Reserve Funds are required for payment of an obligation for which such Reserve Fund was created, and (iv) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. Borrower shall be responsible for payment of any federal, state or local income or other tax applicable to the interest or income earned on the Reserve Funds (with the exception of the Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund). No other investments of the sums on deposit in the Reserve Funds shall be permitted except as set forth in this Section 7.5. Borrower shall bear all reasonable costs associated with the investment of the sums in the account in Permitted Investments. Such costs shall be deducted from the income or earnings on such investment, if any, and to the extent such income or earnings shall not be sufficient to pay such costs, such costs shall be paid by Borrower promptly on demand by Lender. Lender shall have no liability for the rate of return earned or losses incurred on the investment of the sums in Permitted Investments.
          (c) Borrower shall indemnify Lender and hold Lender harmless from and against any and all actions, suits, third party claims, demands, liabilities, actual losses, actual damages (excluding lost profits, diminution in value and other consequential damages), obligations and reasonable costs and expenses (including litigation costs and reasonable attorneys fees and expenses) arising from or in any way connected with the Reserve Funds held by Lender or the performance of the obligations for which the Reserve Funds were established, excluding matters arising from Lender’s or its agents’ fraud, willful misconduct, illegal acts or gross negligence. Borrower shall assign to Lender all rights and claims Borrower may have against all Persons supplying labor, materials or other services which are to be paid from or secured by the Reserve Funds; provided, however, that Lender may not pursue any such right or claim unless an Event of Default has occurred and remains uncured.
          VIII. DEFAULTS

     (x) with respect to any term, covenant or provision set forth herein which specifically contains a notice requirement or grace period, if Borrower shall be in default under such term, covenant or condition after the giving of such notice or the expiration of such grace period;
     (xi) if any of the assumptions contained in the Insolvency Opinion delivered to Lender in connection with the Loan, or in the Additional Insolvency Opinion delivered subsequent to the closing of the Loan, is or shall become untrue in any material respect;

     (xiv) if (A) a material breach or default by Borrower under any condition or obligation contained in the Ground Lease is not cured within any applicable cure period provided therein, (B) the Ground Lease Property shall be surrendered or the Ground Lease shall be terminated or cancelled for any reason or under any circumstances whatsoever, or (C) any of the terms, covenants or conditions of the Ground Lease shall in any manner be modified, changed, supplemented, altered, or amended in any material respect without the prior written consent of Lender;
     (xv) if Borrower ceases to do business as a hotel at the Property or terminates such business for any reason whatsoever (other than temporary cessation in connection with any diligent Restoration of the Property following a Casualty or Condemnation);
     (xvi) if Borrower shall continue to be in Default under any of the other terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement not specified in subsections (i) to (xv) above, for ten (10) Business Days after notice to Borrower from 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 Lender in the case of any other Default; provided, however, that if such non-monetary Default is susceptible of cure but cannot reasonably be cured within such thirty (30) day period and provided further that 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 such time as is reasonably necessary for Borrower in the exercise of due diligence to cure such Default, such additional period not to exceed ninety (90) days, subject to Excusable Delay; or
     (xvii) if there shall be Default under any of the other Loan Documents beyond any applicable cure periods contained in such documents (or thirty (30) days if no such

-82-


 

cure period is specified), whether as to Borrower or the Property, or if any other such event shall occur or condition shall exist, if the effect of such event or condition is to accelerate the maturity of any portion of the Debt or to permit Lender to accelerate the maturity of all or any portion of the Debt.
          (b) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default described in clauses (vi), (vii) or (viii) above) and at any time thereafter, in addition to any other rights or remedies available to it pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or at law or in equity, Lender may take such action, without notice or demand, that Lender deems advisable to protect and enforce its rights against Borrower and in and to the Property, including, without limitation, declaring the Debt to be immediately due and payable, and Lender may enforce or avail itself of any or all rights or remedies provided in the Loan Documents against Borrower and the Property, including, without limitation, all rights or remedies available at law or in equity; and upon any Event of Default described in clauses (vi), (vii) or (viii) above, the Debt and all other obligations of Borrower hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall immediately and automatically become due and payable, without notice or demand, and Borrower hereby expressly waives any such notice or demand, anything contained herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding.
          Section 8.2. Remedies. (a) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, all or any one or more of the rights, powers, privileges and other remedies available to Lender against Borrower under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents executed and delivered by, or applicable to, Borrower or at law or in equity may be exercised by Lender at any time and from time to time, whether or not all or any of the Debt shall be declared due and payable, and whether or not Lender shall have commenced any foreclosure proceeding or other action for the enforcement of its rights and remedies under any of the Loan Documents. Any such actions taken by Lender shall be cumulative and concurrent and may be pursued independently, singularly, successively, together or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Lender may determine in its sole discretion, to the fullest extent permitted by law, without impairing or otherwise affecting the other rights and remedies of Lender permitted by law, equity or contract or as set forth herein or in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Borrower agrees that if an Event of Default is continuing (i) Lender is not subject to any “one action” or “election of remedies” law or rule, and (ii) all liens and other rights, remedies or privileges provided to Lender shall remain in full force and effect until Lender has exhausted all of its remedies against the Property and the Mortgage has been foreclosed, sold and/or otherwise realized upon in satisfaction of the Debt or the Debt has been paid in full.
          (b) Lender shall have the right from time to time to sever the Note and the other Loan Documents into one or more separate notes, mortgages and other security documents (the “Severed Loan Documents”) in such denominations as Lender shall determine in its sole discretion for purposes of evidencing and enforcing its rights and remedies provided hereunder, provided that Borrower’s liability or obligation shall not be increased by such severance. Borrower shall execute and deliver to Lender from time to time, promptly after the request of Lender, a severance agreement and such other documents as Lender shall reasonably request in order to effect the severance described in the preceding sentence, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender. Borrower hereby absolutely and irrevocably appoints Lender

-83-


 

as its true and lawful attorney, coupled with an interest, in its name and stead to make and execute all documents necessary or desirable to effect the aforesaid severance, Borrower ratifying all that its said attorney shall do by virtue thereof; provided, however, Lender shall not make or execute any such documents under such power until five (5) Business Days after notice has been given to Borrower by Lender of Lender’s intent to exercise its rights under such power. Except as may be required in connection with a Securitization and expressly provided pursuant to Section 9.1 hereof, (i) Borrower shall not be obligated to pay any costs or expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, execution, recording or filing of the Severed Loan Documents, and (ii) the Severed Loan Documents shall not contain any representations, warranties or covenants not contained in the Loan Documents (modified to reflect the current status of such representations and warranties) and any such representations and warranties contained in the Severed Loan Documents will be given by Borrower only as of the Assumption Date.
          (c) Remedies Cumulative; Waivers. The rights, powers and remedies of Lender under this Agreement shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any other right, power or remedy which Lender may have against Borrower pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or existing at law or in equity or otherwise. Lender’s rights, powers and remedies may be pursued singularly, concurrently or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Lender may determine in Lender’s sole discretion. No delay or omission to exercise any remedy, right or power accruing upon an Event of Default shall impair any such remedy, right or power or shall be construed as a waiver thereof, but any such remedy, right or power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. A waiver of one Default or Event of Default with respect to Borrower shall not be construed to be a waiver of any subsequent Default or Event of Default by Borrower or to impair any remedy, right or power consequent thereon.
          IX. SPECIAL PROVISIONS
          Section 9.1. Sale of Note and Securitization. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the Lender may sell all or any portion of the Loan and the Loan Documents, or issue one or more participations therein, or consummate one or more private or public securitizations of rated single- or multi-class securities (the “Securities”) secured by or evidencing ownership interests in all or any portion of the Loan and the Loan Documents or a pool of assets that include the Loan and the Loan Documents (such sales, participations and/or securitizations, collectively, a “Securitization”). At the request of Lender, and to the extent not already required to be provided by Borrower under this Agreement, Borrower shall use commercially reasonable good faith efforts to provide existing information not in the possession of Lender or which may be reasonably required by Lender (excluding any confidential information concerning Marriott Manager as required by the terms of the Management Agreement or Sponsor’s Constituent Members) in order to satisfy the market standards to which Lender customarily adheres or which may be reasonably required by prospective investors and/or the Rating Agencies in connection with any such Securitization including, without limitation, to:
          (a) provide updated Provided Information or other existing information with respect to the Property, together with appropriate verification and/or consents related to the Provided Information through letters of auditors or opinions of counsel of independent attorneys reasonably acceptable to Lender and the Rating Agencies;

-84-


 

          (b) review descriptive materials for presentations to any or all of the Rating Agencies, and work with, third-party service providers engaged to obtain, collect, and deliver information reasonably requested or reasonably required by Lender, prospective investors or the Rating Agencies;
          (c) if required by any Rating Agency, deliver (i) updated opinions of counsel as to non-consolidation, due execution and enforceability with respect to the Property, Borrower, the Principal and the Loan Documents, and (ii) amend the Special Purpose Entity provisions of the organizational documents for Borrower, which counsel opinions and amendments to the organizational documents shall be reasonably satisfactory to Lender and the Rating Agencies;
          (d) provide updated representations and warranties made in the Loan Documents as are customarily provided in securitization transactions as may be reasonably requested by Lender or the Rating Agencies and consistent with the facts covered by such representations and warranties made in the Loan Documents to the extent they are true as of the closing of the Securitization;
          (e) execute such amendments to the Loan Documents as may be reasonably requested by Lender or the Rating Agencies to effect the Securitization and/or deliver one or more new component notes to replace the original note or modify the original note to reflect multiple components of the Loan (and such new notes or modified note shall have the same initial weighted average coupon of the original note, but such new notes or modified note may change the interest rate of the Loan), provided, however, that (i) such new notes or modified note will not change the interest rate, the stated maturity or the amortization of principal set forth in the Note unless the varying interest rates shall have the same initial weighted average coupon of the original Note, (ii) such amendments to the Loan Documents or the new notes or modified note will not modify or amend any other economic or material term of the Loan in a manner adverse to Borrower or its Constituent Members, or (iii) such amendments to the Loan Documents will not materially increase Borrower’s obligations and liabilities under the Loan Documents or materially decrease the rights of Borrower under the Loan Documents;
          (f) if requested by Lender, review any information regarding the Property, Borrower, Principal, the Manager and the Loan which is contained in a preliminary or final private placement memorandum, prospectus, prospectus supplement (including any amendment or supplement to either thereof), or other disclosure document to be used by Lender or any affiliate thereof; and
          (g) supply to Lender such existing documentation, financial statements and reports of Borrower in form and substance required in order to comply with any applicable securities laws.
          Lender shall pay all reasonable third party costs and expenses (excluding fees and expenses of Borrower’s legal counsel) in excess of Five Thousand Dollars ($5,000) incurred by Borrower in connection with Borrower’s complying with requests made under this Section 9.1 and/or under Section 9.1.2 hereof, provided, however, the fees and expenses of Borrower’s legal counsel and Borrower’s administrative costs shall not be included in such amount and Borrower

-85-


 

shall remain at all times responsible for the fees and expenses of its legal counsel and its own administrative costs.
          9.1.2 Mezzanine Loans. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 9.1 to the contrary and subject to the cap on costs and expenses set forth in the last paragraph thereof, Borrower covenants and agrees that after the Closing Date and prior to a Securitization, Lender shall have the right after reasonable consultation with Borrower to create one or more additional mezzanine loans (each, a “New Mezzanine Loan”), to establish different interest rates and to reallocate principal balances of each of the Loan and any New Mezzanine Loan(s) amongst each other and to require the payment of the Loan and any New Mezzanine Loan(s) in such order of priority as may be designated by Lender; provided, that (i) in no event shall (A) the weighted average spread of the Loan and any New Mezzanine Loan(s) following any such reallocation or modification change from the weighted average spread for all in effect immediately preceding such reallocation, modification or creation of any New Mezzanine Loan(s) and (B) the Loan be subject to any interest rate floor, and (ii) such New Mezzanine Loan(s) will not materially increase Borrower’s obligations and liabilities under the Loan Documents or materially decrease the rights of Borrower under the Loan Documents (other than, in each case, administratively or in a de minimus respect). Borrower shall execute and deliver such documents as shall reasonably be required by Lender as promptly as possible under the circumstances in connection with this Section 9.1.2, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Borrower, Lender and the Rating Agencies, including, without limitation, in connection with the creation of any New Mezzanine Loan, a promissory note and loan documents necessary to evidence such New Mezzanine Loan, and Borrower shall execute such amendments to the Loan Documents as are necessary in connection with the creation of such New Mezzanine Loan all of which shall be on substantially the same terms and conditions as the Loan Documents. In addition, Borrower shall cause the formation of one or more special purpose, bankruptcy remote entities as required by Lender in order to serve as the borrower under any New Mezzanine Loan (each, a “New Mezzanine Borrower”) and the applicable organizational documents of Borrower shall be amended and modified as necessary or required in the formation of any New Mezzanine Borrower. Further, in connection with any New Mezzanine Loan, Borrower shall deliver to Lender opinions of legal counsel, in substantially the same form as were delivered in connection with the Loan, with respect to due execution, authority and enforceability of the New Mezzanine Loan and the Loan Documents, as amended and an Additional Insolvency Opinion for the Loan and a substantive non-consolidation opinion with respect to any New Mezzanine Loan, each as reasonably acceptable to Lender, prospective investors and/or the Rating Agencies.
          Section 9.2. Securitization Indemnification. (a) Borrower understands that information provided to Lender by Borrower and its agents, counsel and representatives may be included in Disclosure Documents in connection with the Securitization and may also be included in filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and may be made available to investors or prospective investors in the Securities, the Rating Agencies, and service providers relating to the Securitization. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender and its agents shall keep confidential such information specifically identified by Borrower as being subject to confidentiality provisions set forth in the Management Agreement and, without limitation on the foregoing, no reference to Marriott Manager, any Affiliate of Marriott Manager, or any “Renaissance Trademark” (as defined in the

-86-


 

Marriott Management Agreement) shall be made in any prospectus, private placement memorandum, offering circular or offering documentation related thereto issued which is designed to interest potential investors in debt or equity securities related to the Property, unless Marriott Manager has given its prior written approval to each such reference, which Marriott Manager may withhold in its sole and absolute discretion.
          (b) Upon Lender’s reasonable request, Borrower shall provide in connection with each of (i) a preliminary and a final private placement memorandum or (ii) a preliminary and final prospectus or prospectus supplement, as applicable, an agreement (A) certifying that Borrower has examined such Disclosure Documents specified by Lender and that to Borrower’s actual knowledge, each such Disclosure Document, as it relates to Borrower, Borrower Affiliates, the Property and Manager, does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact in Borrower’s actual knowledge necessary in order to make the statements made, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not materially misleading, (B) indemnifying Lender (and for purposes of this Section 9.2, Lender hereunder shall include its officers and directors), the Affiliate of Lender that has filed the registration statement relating to the Securitization (the “Registration Statement”), each of its directors, each of its officers who have signed the Registration Statement and each Person that controls the Affiliate within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (collectively, the “Lender Group”), and Lender, and any other placement agent or underwriter with respect to the Securitization, each of their respective directors and each Person who controls Lender or any other placement agent or underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act (collectively, the “Underwriter Group”) for any out-of-pocket losses, third party claims, actual damages (but not lost revenues, diminution in value and other consequential damages) or liabilities (collectively, the “Liabilities”) to which Lender, the Lender Group or the Underwriter Group may become subject insofar as the Liabilities arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in such sections known by Borrower to be untrue or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact in Borrower’s actual knowledge, required to be stated in such sections or necessary in order to make the statements in such sections, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading and (C) agreeing to reimburse Lender, the Lender Group and/or the Underwriter Group for any reasonable legal or other reasonable expenses reasonably incurred by Lender, the Lender Group and the Underwriter Group in connection with investigating or defending the Liabilities; provided, however, that Borrower will be liable in any such case under clauses (B) or (C) above only to the extent that any such loss claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any such untrue statement or omission made therein in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to Lender by Borrower in connection with the preparation of the Disclosure Document or in connection with the underwriting or closing of the Loan, including, without limitation, financial statements of Borrower, operating statements and rent rolls with respect to the Property. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if there is a lawsuit based upon an alleged untrue statement or an alleged omission and such allegations are proved to be untrue pursuant to a final court order which is unappealable, Borrower shall not be responsible for the legal fees incurred by Lender, Lender Group and the Underwriter Group. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which Borrower may otherwise have.

-87-


 

          (c) In connection with Exchange Act Filings, Borrower shall (i) indemnify Lender, the Lender Group and the Underwriter Group for Liabilities to which Lender, the Lender Group or the Underwriter Group may become subject insofar as the Liabilities arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state in the Disclosure Document a material fact in Borrower’s actual knowledge, required to be stated in the Disclosure Document in order to make the statements in the Disclosure Document, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading and (ii) reimburse Lender, the Lender Group or the Underwriter Group for any reasonable legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by Lender, the Lender Group or the Underwriter Group in connection with defending or investigating the Liabilities. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if there is a lawsuit based upon an alleged untrue statement or an alleged omission and such allegations are proved to be untrue pursuant to a final court order which is unappealable, Borrower shall not be responsible for the legal fees incurred by Lender, Lender Group and the Underwriter Group.
          (d) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 9.2 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 9.2, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof, but the omission to so notify the indemnifying party will not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability which the indemnifying party may have to any indemnified party hereunder except to the extent that failure to notify causes prejudice to the indemnifying party. In the event that any action is brought against any indemnified party, and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled, jointly with any other indemnifying party, to participate therein and, to the extent that it (or they) may elect by written notice delivered to the indemnified party promptly after receiving the aforesaid notice from such indemnified party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party. After notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party under this Section 9.2, such indemnified party shall pay for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided, however, if the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there are any legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to assert such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party at the cost of the indemnifying party. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel unless an indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or additional to those available to another indemnified party.
          (e) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which the indemnity agreement provided for in Section 9.2(b) or (c) is for any reason held to be unenforceable as to an indemnified party in respect of any Liabilities (or action in respect thereof) referred to therein which would otherwise be indemnifiable under Section 9.2(b) or (c), the indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such Liabilities (or action in respect thereof); provided, however, that no Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall

-88-


 

be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. In determining the amount of contribution to which the respective parties are entitled, the following factors shall be considered: (i) Lender’s and Borrower’s relative knowledge and access to information concerning the matter with respect to which the claim was asserted; (ii) the opportunity to correct and prevent any statement or omission; and (iii) any other equitable considerations appropriate in the circumstances.
          (f) Subject to the provisions of Section 9.4 hereof, the liabilities and obligations of both Borrower and Lender under this Section 9.2 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the satisfaction and discharge of the Debt.
          Section 9.3. Intentionally Omitted.
          Section 9.4. Exculpation. Subject to the qualifications below, Lender shall not enforce the liability and obligation of Borrower to perform and observe the obligations contained in the Note, this Agreement, the Mortgage or the other Loan Documents by any action or proceeding wherein a money judgment shall be sought against Borrower, except that Lender may bring a foreclosure action, an action for specific performance or any other appropriate action or proceeding to enable Lender to enforce and realize upon its interest under the Note, this Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents, or in the Property, the Rents, or any other collateral given to Lender pursuant to the Loan Documents; provided, however, that, except as specifically provided herein, any judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be enforceable against Borrower only to the extent of Borrower’s interest in the Property, in the Rents and in any other collateral given to Lender, and Lender, by accepting the Note, this Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents, agrees that it shall not sue for, seek or demand any deficiency judgment against Borrower in any such action or proceeding under, or by reason of, or in connection with, the Note, this Agreement, the Mortgage or the other Loan Documents. The provisions of this Section shall not, however, (a) constitute a waiver, release or impairment of any obligation evidenced or secured by any of the Loan Documents; (b) impair the right of Lender to name Borrower as a party defendant in any action or suit for foreclosure and sale under the Mortgage; (c) impair the right of Lender to obtain the appointment of a receiver; (d) impair the enforcement of the Assignment of Leases; (e) constitute a prohibition against Lender to seek a deficiency judgment against Borrower in order to fully realize the security granted by the Mortgage or to commence any other appropriate action or proceeding in order for Lender to exercise its remedies against the Property; or (f) constitute a waiver of the right of Lender to enforce the liability and obligation of Borrower, by money judgment or otherwise, to the extent of any loss, damage (excluding any lost revenue, diminution of value and other consequential damages), reasonable cost, reasonable expense, liability, claim or other obligation incurred by Lender (including attorneys’ fees and costs reasonably incurred) arising out of or in connection with the following:
     (i) fraud or intentional misrepresentation by Borrower in connection with the Loan;
     (ii) physical damage to the Property arising from intentional, active waste of Borrower;

-89-


 

     (iii) the breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or indemnification provision in the Environmental Indemnity Agreement or in the Mortgage concerning environmental laws, hazardous substances and asbestos and any indemnification of Lender with respect thereto in either document;
     (iv) the removal or disposal of any portion of the Property in violation of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents after an Event of Default;
     (v) the misappropriation or conversion by Borrower of (A) any Insurance Proceeds paid by reason of any Casualty, to the extent so misappropriated or converted, (B) any Awards received in connection with a Condemnation, to the extent so misappropriated or converted, (C) any Rents following and during the continuance of an Event of Default, or (D) any Rents paid more than one (1) month in advance in violation of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, to the extent so misappropriated or converted; and
     (vi) any Liens on any portion of the Property with priority over or equal to the Lien of the Loan Documents, in violation of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.
          Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Note or any of the Loan Documents, (A) Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any right which Lender may have under Section 506(a), 506(b), 1111(b) or any other provisions of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code to file a claim for the full amount of the Debt secured by the Mortgage or to require that all collateral shall continue to secure all of the Debt owing to Lender in accordance with the Loan Documents, and (B) the Debt shall be fully recourse to Borrower (i) in the event of: (a) Borrower filing a voluntary petition under the Bankruptcy Code or any other Federal or state bankruptcy or insolvency law; (b) Borrower soliciting or causing to be solicited petitioning creditors to file a petition against Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code or any other Federal or state bankruptcy or insolvency law; (c) Borrower consenting in advance of the filing of a petition with its creditors to any involuntary petition filed against it under the Bankruptcy Code or any other Federal or state bankruptcy or insolvency law; or (d) Borrower colluding with any Person other than Lender with respect to the filing of involuntary insolvency proceedings against Borrower; or (e) Borrower voluntarily making an assignment for the benefit of creditors; (ii) if Borrower fails to maintain its status as a Special Purpose Entity as required by, and in accordance with, the terms and provisions of the Loan Documents to the extent the same results in a consolidation of assets of Borrower with another Person; (iii) if Borrower fails to obtain Lender’s prior consent to any subordinate financing or other voluntary Lien encumbering the Property if such consent is required under the Loan Documents; or (iv) if Borrower violates the restrictions to Transfer as set forth in the Loan Documents.
          Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, no present or future Constituent Member in Borrower, nor any present or future shareholder, officer, director, employee, trustee, beneficiary, advisor, member, partner, principal, participant or agent of or in Borrower or of or in any person or entity that is or becomes a Constituent Member in Borrower, shall have any personal liability, directly or indirectly, under or in connection with this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents, or any amendment or

-90-


 

amendments to any of the foregoing made at any time or times, heretofore or hereafter, and Lender on behalf of itself and its successors and assigns, hereby waives any and all such personal liability. In addition, Lender, for itself and its successors and assigns, acknowledges and agrees that neither Borrower, nor any Constituent Member, nor any other party, is assuming any personal liability, directly or indirectly, under or in connection with any agreement, lease, instrument, claim or right constituting a part of the Property or to which the Property is now or hereafter subject.
          For purposes of this Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents, neither the negative capital account of any Constituent Member in Borrower nor any obligation of any Constituent Member in Borrower to restore a negative capital account or to contribute or loan capital to Borrower or to any other Constituent Member in Borrower shall at any time be deemed to be the property or an asset of Borrower (or any such other Constituent Member) and neither Lender nor any of its successors or assigns shall have any right to collect, enforce or proceed against with respect to any such negative capital account or obligation to restore, contribute or loan.
          Section 9.5. Matters Concerning Manager. If (i) the Manager shall become bankrupt or insolvent, or (ii) a material default by Manager of its material obligations occurs under the Management Agreement beyond any applicable grace and cure periods, Borrower shall, at the request of Lender and after Lender’s reasonable consultation with Borrower, terminate the Management Agreement and replace the Manager with a Qualified Manager pursuant to a Replacement Management Agreement.
          Section 9.6. Servicer. (a) At the option of Lender, the Loan may be serviced by a servicer/trustee (the “Servicer”) selected by Lender and Lender may delegate all or any portion of its responsibilities under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to the Servicer pursuant to a servicing agreement (the “Servicing Agreement”) between Lender and Servicer. Borrower shall not be responsible for any set-up fees or any other initial costs relating to or arising under the Servicing Agreement nor shall Borrower be responsible for payment of the monthly servicing fee due to the Servicer under the Servicing Agreement.
          (b) Lender shall endeavor in good faith (without liability for failure to do so) to provide Borrower with notification of any change in the Person servicing the Loan; provided that it shall not constitute a Default or Event of Default hereunder if due to such failure Borrower sends any payments required to be made hereunder to Lender or any predecessor Person servicing the Loan.
          X. MISCELLANEOUS
          Section 10.1. Survival. This Agreement and all covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made herein and in the certificates delivered pursuant hereto shall survive the making by Lender of the Loan and the execution and delivery to Lender of the Note, and shall continue in full force and effect so long as all or any of the Debt is outstanding and unpaid unless a longer period is expressly set forth herein or in the other Loan Documents. Whenever in this Agreement any of the parties hereto is referred to, such reference shall be deemed to include the legal representatives, successors and assigns of such party. All covenants,

-91-


 

promises and agreements in this Agreement, by or on behalf of Borrower, shall inure to the benefit of the legal representatives, successors and assigns of Lender.
          Section 10.2. Lender’s Discretion. Whenever pursuant to this Agreement, Lender exercises any right given to it to approve or disapprove, or any arrangement or term is to be satisfactory to Lender, the decision of Lender to approve or disapprove or to decide whether arrangements or terms are satisfactory or not satisfactory shall (except as is otherwise specifically herein provided) be in the sole discretion of Lender and shall be final and conclusive. Whenever this Agreement expressly provides that Lender may not withhold its consent or its approval of an arrangement or term, such provisions shall also be deemed to prohibit Lender from delaying or conditioning such consent or approval. Prior to a Securitization, whenever pursuant to this Agreement the Rating Agencies are given any right to approve or disapprove, or any arrangement or term is to be satisfactory to the Rating Agencies, the decision of Lender to approve or disapprove or to decide whether arrangements or terms are satisfactory or not satisfactory, based upon Lender’s determination of Rating Agency criteria, shall be substituted therefore.

BORROWER AND LENDER EACH HEREBY AGREES NOT TO ELECT A TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY ISSUE TRIABLE OF RIGHT BY JURY, AND WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY FULLY TO THE EXTENT THAT ANY SUCH RIGHT SHALL NOW OR HEREAFTER EXIST WITH REGARD TO THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, OR ANY CLAIM, COUNTERCLAIM OR OTHER ACTION ARISING IN CONNECTION THEREWITH.

EACH PARTY IS HEREBY AUTHORIZED TO FILE A COPY OF THIS PARAGRAPH IN ANY PROCEEDING AS CONCLUSIVE EVIDENCE OF THIS WAIVER BY THE OTHER.
          Section 10.8. Headings. The Article and/or Section headings and the Table of Contents in this Agreement are included herein for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement for any other purpose.
          Section 10.9. Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.
          Section 10.10. Preferences. Lender shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply or reverse and reapply any and all payments by Borrower to any portion of the obligations of Borrower hereunder. To the extent Borrower makes a payment or payments to Lender, which payment or proceeds or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then, to the extent of such payment or proceeds received, the obligations hereunder or part thereof intended

-95-


 

to be satisfied shall be revived and continue in full force and effect, as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by Lender.
          Section 10.11. Waiver of Notice. Borrower hereby expressly waives, and shall not be entitled to, any notices of any nature whatsoever from Lender except with respect to matters for which this Agreement or the other Loan Documents specifically and expressly provide for the giving of notice by Lender to Borrower and except with respect to matters for which Borrower is not, pursuant to applicable Legal Requirements, permitted to waive the giving of notice.
          Section 10.12. Remedies of Borrower. In the event that a claim or adjudication is made that Lender or its agents have acted unreasonably or unreasonably delayed acting in any case where by law or under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, Lender or such agent, as the case may be, has an obligation to act reasonably or promptly, Borrower agrees that neither Lender nor its agents shall be liable for any monetary damages, and Borrower’s sole remedies shall be limited to commencing an action seeking injunctive relief or declaratory judgment unless Lender’s actions are arbitrary and capricious. The parties hereto agree that any action or proceeding to determine whether Lender has acted reasonably shall be determined by an action seeking declaratory judgment unless Lender’s actions are arbitrary and capricious.
          Section 10.13. Expenses; Indemnity. (a) Borrower covenants and agrees to pay or, if Borrower fails to pay, to reimburse, Lender within ten (10) days of receipt of notice from Lender for all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred by Lender in connection with (i) Borrower’s ongoing performance of and compliance with Borrower’s respective agreements and covenants contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents on its part to be performed or complied with after the Closing Date, including, without limitation, confirming compliance with environmental and insurance requirements; (ii) the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and administration of any consents, amendments, waivers or other modifications to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other documents or matters requested by Borrower; (iii) securing Borrower’s compliance with its obligations pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; (iv) the filing and recording fees and expenses, title insurance and reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for providing to Lender all required legal opinions, and other similar expenses incurred in creating and perfecting the Liens in favor of Lender pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; (v) subject to the terms hereof, enforcing or preserving any rights, either in response to third party claims or in prosecuting or defending any action or proceeding or other litigation, in each case against, under or affecting Borrower, this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Property, or any other security given for the Loan; and (vi) enforcing any obligations of or collecting any payments due from Borrower under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or with respect to the Property or in connection with any refinancing or restructuring of the credit arrangements provided under this Agreement in the nature of a “work-out” or of any insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings; provided, however, that Borrower shall not be liable for the payment of any such costs and expenses to the extent the same arise by reason of the gross negligence, illegal acts, fraud or willful misconduct of Lender. Notwithstanding the provision set forth in this Section 10.13(a) or in any other provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, in the event that (A) Lender employs counsel to collect the Debt, protect or foreclose the Mortgage or as otherwise permitted in this Agreement and the

-96-


 

other Loan Documents and (B) Lender has sold or transferred any interests in the Note, then Borrower shall only be responsible for the attorney’s fees and expenses of the counsel of only one Lender.
          (b) Borrower shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Lender from and against any and all other liabilities, obligations, out-of-pocket losses, actual damages (but not lost revenues, diminution in value and other consequential damages), penalties, actions, judgments, third party suits, third party claims, reasonable costs, reasonable expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for Lender in connection with any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding commenced or threatened, whether or not Lender shall be designated a party thereto), that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against Lender in any manner relating to or arising out of (i) any breach by Borrower of its obligations under, or any material misrepresentation by Borrower contained in, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or (ii) the use or intended use of the proceeds of the Loan (collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”); provided, however, that Borrower shall not have any obligation to Lender hereunder to the extent that such Indemnified Liabilities arise from the gross negligence, illegal acts, fraud or willful misconduct of Lender. To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify, defend and hold harmless set forth in the preceding sentence may be unenforceable because it violates any law or public policy, Borrower shall pay the maximum portion that it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by Lender.
          (c) Borrower covenants and agrees to pay for or, if Borrower fails to pay, to reimburse Lender for, any fees and expenses incurred by any Rating Agency in connection with any consent, approval, waiver or confirmation obtained from such Rating Agency and required pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document in connection with any request or approval sought by Borrower and Lender shall be entitled to require payment of such fees and expenses as a condition precedent to the obtaining of any such consent, approval, waiver or confirmation.
          Section 10.14. Schedules Incorporated. The Schedules annexed hereto are hereby incorporated herein as a part of this Agreement with the same effect as if set forth in the body hereof.
          Section 10.15. Offsets, Counterclaims and Defenses. Any assignee of Lender’s interest in and to this Agreement, the Note and the other Loan Documents shall take the same free and clear of all offsets, counterclaims or defenses which are unrelated to such documents which Borrower may otherwise have against any assignor of such documents, and no such unrelated counterclaim or defense shall be interposed or asserted by Borrower in any action or proceeding brought by any such assignee upon such documents and any such right to interpose or assert any such unrelated offset, counterclaim or defense in any such action or proceeding is hereby expressly waived by Borrower.
          Section 10.16. No Joint Venture or Partnership; No Third Party Beneficiaries. (a) Borrower and Lender intend that the relationships created hereunder and under the other Loan Documents be solely that of borrower and lender. Nothing herein or

-97-


 

therein is intended to create a joint venture, partnership, tenancy-in-common, or joint tenancy relationship between Borrower and Lender nor to grant Lender any interest in the Property other than that of mortgagee, beneficiary or lender.
          (b) This Agreement and the other Loan Documents are solely for the benefit of Lender and Borrower and nothing contained in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to confer upon anyone other than Lender and Borrower any right to insist upon or to enforce the performance or observance of any of the obligations contained herein or therein. All conditions to the obligations of Lender to make the Loan hereunder are imposed solely and exclusively for the benefit of Lender and no other Person shall have standing to require satisfaction of such conditions in accordance with their terms or be entitled to assume that Lender will refuse to make the Loan in the absence of strict compliance with any or all thereof and no other Person shall under any circumstances be deemed to be a beneficiary of such conditions, any or all of which may be freely waived in whole or in part by Lender if, in Lender’s sole discretion, Lender deems it advisable or desirable to do so.
          Section 10.17. Publicity. All news releases, publicity or advertising by Borrower or its Affiliates through any media intended to reach the general public which refers to the Loan Documents or the financing evidenced by the Loan Documents, to Lender, or any of its Affiliates shall be subject to the prior approval of Lender not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, disclosure required by applicable state or federal securities laws, rules or regulations or other applicable Legal Requirements shall not be subject to Lender’s prior written approval.
          Section 10.18. Waiver of Marshalling of Assets. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Borrower, for itself and its successors and assigns, waives all rights to a marshalling of the assets of Borrower, Borrower’s partners and others with interests in Borrower, and of the Property, or to a sale in inverse order of alienation in the event of foreclosure of the Mortgage, and agrees not to assert any right under any laws pertaining to the marshalling of assets, the sale in inverse order of alienation, homestead exemption, the administration of estates of decedents, or any other matters whatsoever to defeat, reduce or affect the right of Lender under the Loan Documents to a sale of the Property for the collection of the Debt without any prior or different resort for collection or of the right of Lender to the payment of the Debt out of the net proceeds of the Property in preference to every other claimant whatsoever.
          Section 10.19. Waiver of Counterclaim. Borrower hereby waives the right to assert a counterclaim, other than a compulsory counterclaim, in any action or proceeding brought against it by Lender or its agents.
          Section 10.20. Conflict; Construction of Documents; Reliance. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and any of the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Agreement shall control. The parties hereto acknowledge that they were represented by competent counsel in connection with the negotiation, drafting and execution of the Loan Documents and that such Loan Documents shall not be subject to the principle of construing their meaning against the party which drafted same. Borrower acknowledges that, with respect to the Loan, Borrower shall rely solely on its own judgment and advisors in entering into the Loan without relying in any manner on any statements, representations or

-98-


 

recommendations of Lender or any parent, subsidiary or Affiliate of Lender. Lender shall not be subject to any limitation whatsoever in the exercise of any rights or remedies available to it under any of the Loan Documents or any other agreements or instruments which govern the Loan by virtue of the ownership by it or any parent, subsidiary or Affiliate of Lender of any equity interest any of them may acquire in Borrower, and Borrower hereby irrevocably waives the right to raise any defense or take any action on the basis of the foregoing with respect to Lender’s exercise of any such rights or remedies. Borrower acknowledges that Lender engages in the business of real estate financings and other real estate transactions and investments which may be viewed as adverse to or competitive with the business of Borrower or its Affiliates.
          Section 10.21. Brokers and Financial Advisors. Borrower hereby represents that it has dealt with no financial advisors, brokers, underwriters, placement agents, agents or finders in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, other than Hodges Ward Elliott, Inc., the fees of which are being paid at the assumption of the Loan]. Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Lender harmless from and against any and all third-party claims, liabilities, out-of-pocket costs and reasonable expenses of any kind (including Lender’s reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) in any way relating to or arising from a claim by any Person that such Person acted on behalf of Borrower or Lender in connection with the transactions contemplated herein. The provisions of this Section 10.21 shall survive the expiration and termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Debt.
          Section 10.21. Prior Agreements. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents contain the entire agreement of the parties hereto and thereto in respect of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and all prior agreements among or between such parties, whether oral or written, are superseded by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
          Section 10.22. Joint and Several Liability. All representations, warranties, covenants (both affirmative and negative) and all other obligations hereunder shall be the joint and several obligation of each Person comprising Borrower and a default or Event of Default by any Borrower shall be deemed a default or Event of Default by each Person comprising Borrower. The representations, covenants and warranties contained herein or in any other Loan Document shall be read to apply to each Person comprising Borrower when the context so requires but a breach of any such representation, covenant or warranty or a breach of any obligation under the Loan Documents shall be deemed a breach by all Persons comprising Borrower, entitling Lender to exercise all of its rights and remedies under all the Loan Documents and under applicable law.
          Section 10.23. Contribution and Related Provisions.
          (a) Notwithstanding that each Person comprising Borrower (each a “Co-Obligor”) is jointly and severally liable with each other Borrower to Lender for payment of the Loan and other Debt, as between the Co-Obligors, to the extent that a payment is made on the Debt by a Co-Obligor (a “Co-Obligor Payment”), which, taking into account all other Co-Obligor Payments then previously or concurrently made by or attributable to any other Co-Obligor, exceeds the amount of the Co-Obligor Payment which otherwise would have been made by or attributable to such Co-Obligor if each such Co-Obligor had paid the aggregate Debt

-99-


 

satisfied by such Co-Obligor Payments in the same proportion as such Co-Obligor’s Allocable Amount in effect immediately prior to such Co-Obligor Payment bore to the aggregate Allocable Amounts of all such Co-Obligors in effect immediately prior to such Co-Obligor Payment, then such Co-Obligor shall be entitled to contribution and indemnification from, and to be reimbursed by, the other Co-Obligors for the amount of such excess, pro rata based upon their respective Allocable Amounts in effect immediately prior to such Co-Obligor Payment (such obligations of one Co-Obligor to another are herein referred to as the “Contribution Obligations”). The Co-Obligors acknowledge that the rights of contribution and indemnification hereunder shall constitute assets in favor of the Co-Obligor to which such contribution and indemnification is owing. As used herein, the “Allocable Amount” of any Co-Obligor, as of any date of determination, shall be determined to be an amount equal to the maximum amount of the Indebtedness which could then be claimed against such Co-Obligor without rendering such claim voidable or avoidable under Section 548 of Chapter 11 of the United States Federal Bankruptcy Code (11 U.S.C. Sec. 101 et seq.) or under any applicable state Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act, Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act or similar statute or common law.
          (b) Each Co-Obligor hereby postpones and subordinates payment of all the Contribution Obligations, and makes all the Contribution Obligations subject in right of satisfaction, payment and performance, to the full and absolute payment of the Loan and other Debt. Until the date that is one (1) year and one (1) day after the date that all of the Indebtedness has been paid and satisfied in full none of the Co-Obligors shall (a) assert, collect, sue upon, or enforce all or any part of the Contribution Obligations; (b) commence or join with any other creditors of any Co-Obligor in commencing any bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership or insolvency proceeding against any other Co-Obligor; (c) take, accept, ask for, sue for, receive, set off or demand any payments upon the Contribution Obligations; or (d) take, accept, ask for, sue for, receive, demand or allow to be created liens, security interests, mortgages, or pledges of or with respect to any of the assets of a Co-Obligor in favor of or for the benefit of the any other Co-Obligor
          (c) Each of Co-Obligors agrees that in the event of any bankruptcy, insolvency, arrangement, reorganization or receivership proceeding relating to any other Co-Obligor, the following shall apply:
(i) In any such proceeding the Lender may, and is hereby irrevocably authorized and empowered (in its own name or in the name of the said Co-Obligor) but shall have no obligation to: demand, sue for, collect and receive every payment or distribution in respect of the Contribution Obligations and give acquittance therefor; and file claims and proofs of claims and take such other action (including, without limitation, voting the Contribution Obligations and approving or objecting to a plan of reorganization) as the Lender may deem necessary or advisable for the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights or interests of the Lender under this Section 13.27(C).
(ii) In any such proceeding, each Co-Obligor will duly and promptly take such action as the Lender may request to (i) collect for the account of the Lender the Contribution Obligations and to file appropriate claims or proofs of claim with respect thereto; and (ii) execute and deliver to the Lender such powers of attorney,

-100-


 

assignments or other instruments as the Lender may request in order to enable it to enforce any and all claims with respect to the Contribution Obligations.
          (d) Each of the Co-Obligors acknowledges and agrees that (i) Lender would not make the Loan unless each Co-Obligor jointly and severally became obligated for the repayment of the Loan and granted liens on the collateral owned by said Co-Obligor to secure the payment of all of the Loan and other Debt, and (ii) each Co-Obligor derives benefits from the Loan and the granting of liens by each Co-Obligor on the collateral owned by it securing the payment of the Loan and other Debt.
