If the Event of Default has been satisfactorily cured, Lender shall make available to Borrower such funds as may be deposited in the escrow account from time to time for Borrower’s payment of insurance premiums or real property taxes due with respect to the Property.

4.9. Loan to Value Ratio; Appraisal. At all times during the term of the Loan, the Loan to value ratio shall be no more than sixty five percent (65%) based upon a current Appraisal of the Property, which Appraisal shall be paid for by Borrower. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the RSI Lease (once executed and delivered to Lender) are inconsistent with the economic terms used by Lender in underwriting the Loan or used by the appraiser in preparing the Appraisal delivered to Lender pursuant to Section 6.1(m), or if negotiations for the RSI Lease are ultimately unsuccessful and the RSI Lease is not consummated, then Lender shall order (at Borrower’s sole cost) a new Appraisal accurately reflecting the final terms of the RSI Lease. In the event that the Loan to value ratio of the new Appraisal is higher than the Lender’s then-current underwriting requirements for loan transactions of this type, Lender, in its sole discretion, may limit the amount of Loan proceeds available to be disbursed hereunder in such amount as Lender, in its sole discretion, calculates to be necessary to comply with the Lender’s underwriting guidelines.

4.10. Furnishing Reports. Borrower shall provide Lender with copies of all inspections, reports, test results and other information received by Borrower from time to time from its employees, agents, representatives, architects, engineers, any contractors and any other parties involved in the operation of the Property, which in any material way relate to the Property or any part thereof.

Borrower shall comply with any and all Laws, regulations or orders with respect to the discharge and removal of Hazardous Materials, shall pay immediately when due the costs of removal of any such Hazardous Materials, and shall keep the Property free of any lien imposed pursuant to Environmental Laws, regulations or orders. In the event Borrower fails to do so, after notice to Borrower and the expiration of the earlier of: (i) applicable cure periods hereunder; or (ii) the cure period permitted under applicable Law, regulation or order, Lender may declare an Event of Default and/or cause the remediation of the Hazardous Materials with the cost of the remediation added to the indebtedness evidenced by the Note and secured by the Mortgage (regardless of whether such indebtedness then increases the outstanding balance of the Note to an amount in excess of the face amount thereof). Borrower further agrees that Borrower shall not release or dispose of any Hazardous Materials at the Property without the express prior approval of Lender and any such release or disposal will be in compliance with all applicable Laws and regulations and conditions, if any, established by Lender, including, without limitation, those set forth in the Mortgage. Lender shall have the right at any time to conduct an environmental audit of the Property for reasonable cause, at Borrower’s sole cost and expense, and Borrower shall cooperate in the conduct of such environmental audit. Borrower shall give Lender and its agents and its employees access to the Property to inspect and test the Property and to remove Hazardous Materials. Borrower hereby indemnifies Lender and agrees to defend Lender and hold Lender harmless from and against all claims, injuries, losses, costs, damages, liabilities and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and consequential damages) by reason of any claim in connection with any Hazardous Materials which were present at the Property during or prior to Borrower’s ownership of the Property.

(a) Upon a Casualty (as defined in Section 7.1 above), or a Taking (as defined in Section 7.1 above), Lender may elect to apply as a Loan prepayment, all Proceeds of any insurance policies collected or claimed as a result of such Casualty and all Awards resulting from such Taking after deduction of all expenses of collection and settlement, including attorney’s and adjusters’ fees and charges. Any Proceeds or Awards remaining after payment in full of the Loan and all other sums due Lender hereunder shall be paid by Lender to Borrower without any allowance for interest thereon.

(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 7.2(a) above, or anything to the contrary contained herein, as long as (i) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing hereunder, (ii) the Proceeds or Awards, as the case may be, are sufficient to rebuild the Property or, if they are insufficient, as determined by Lender in its sole discretion, Borrower provides Lender with additional funds necessary, as determined in Lender’s sole discretion, to rebuild the Property (the “Additional Funds”), (iii) construction can be completed not less than three (3) months prior to the Initial Maturity Date or Extended Maturity Date, as the case may be, and (iv) after completion of the construction, the loan to value ratio of the Property is satisfactory to Lender, as determined in Lender’s sole discretion, then the Proceeds or Awards, as the case may be, may, at Borrower’s request, be applied towards reconstruction of the Property, which Proceeds or Awards or Additional Funds shall be deposited with Lender and disbursed pursuant the Lender’s disbursement provisions for construction loans of Lender, as those are amended from time to time, or as otherwise prescribed by Lender. To the extent Borrower deposits Additional Funds with Lender, Borrower hereby pledges to Lender as collateral for the Loan all Additional Funds.

(c) In the event Lender does not apply the Proceeds or Awards to prepayment of the Loan as provided for in Section 7.2(a) or Lender does not have the right to apply the Proceeds or Awards pursuant to Section 7.2(b) to prepayment of the Loan, or, in the event such Proceeds or Awards, if applied, do not fully discharge the Loan, Borrower will:

(i)

Proceed with diligence to make settlement (which shall be subject to the prior written approval of Lender) with insurers or with condemning authorities and cause the Proceeds or Awards to be deposited with Lender, unless Lender shall elect to make such settlement without the consent of Borrower.

(ii)

In the event of any delay in making settlement with insurers or effecting collection of Proceeds or Awards, that Lender determines to be unreasonable, Borrower shall deposit with Lender the full amount required to complete construction and restoration, disregarding such Proceeds or Awards.

(iii)

Promptly proceed with construction and restoration of the Property, including the repair of all such loss or damage.

All Proceeds, Awards and Additional Funds deposited by Borrower hereunder shall first be fully disbursed before disbursement of any further Loan Proceeds. Borrower shall not be entitled to any payment of or credit for interest on such Proceeds, Awards and Additional Funds. In the event of deposit by Borrower of the full amount required to complete construction of the Property, as aforesaid, upon the subsequent receipt of Proceeds or Awards, such Proceeds or Awards, as and when received, may be collected and retained by Borrower.

(d) Lender shall not be obligated to see to the proper application of any of the Proceeds nor shall the amount so released or used be deemed a payment on any indebtedness evidenced by the Note or secured by any of the Loan Documents. In the event of foreclosure of the Mortgage or other transfer of title in lieu of foreclosure, all right, title and interest of Lender, in and to any insurance policies then in force shall pass to the purchaser or Lender, as the case may be.

(e) All proceeds of use and occupancy or rental value insurance shall be paid to Lender for the purposes of paying, in the following order: (i) insurance premiums payable with respect to any insurance required to be carried by Borrower hereunder; (ii) taxes, assessments and charges payable by Borrower under any of the Loan Documents; and (iii) all amounts payable on the Note, together with any and all other amounts evidenced or secured by any of the Loan Documents, and to the extent that such insurance proceeds are available to pay the items listed in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), Lender shall pay such items for the account of Borrower. All such insurance proceeds not deemed necessary, in Lender’s sole opinion, to pay (or establish reserves for the payment of) the above items shall be paid over to Borrower.

(f) Upon failure on the part of Borrower promptly to commence or continue the repair or restoration of the Property after settlement of any claim with the insurer, Lender shall have the right to apply such Proceeds to the payment of any indebtedness secured by the Loan Documents, and resort to such other remedies available to Lender hereunder; provided, however, that nothing herein contained shall prevent Lender from applying at any time the whole or any part of such insurance Proceeds to the curing of any Event of Default hereunder.

SECTION 9

LENDER’S REMEDIES UPON DEFAULT

9.1. Remedies Conferred Upon Lender. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, Lender, in addition to all remedies conferred upon Lender by Law and by the terms of the Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents, may pursue any one or more of the following remedies concurrently or successively, it being the intent hereof that none of such remedies shall be to the exclusion of any others:

(a) Declare the Note to be due and payable forthwith, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice or action of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived.

(b) In addition to any rights of set off that Lender may have under applicable Law, Lender may, without notice of any kind to Borrower, appropriate and apply to the payment of the Note or of any sums due under this Agreement, any and all balances, deposits, credits, accounts, certificates of deposit, instruments or money of Borrower then or thereafter in the possession of Lender, or its Affiliates. Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs Lender from time to time to charge Borrower’s accounts and deposits with Lender (or its Affiliates), and to pay over to Lender an amount equal to any amounts from time to time due and payable to Lender hereunder, under the Note or under any other Loan Document. Borrower hereby grants to Lender a security interest in and to all such accounts and deposits maintained by the Borrower with Lender (or its Affiliates).

(c) Exercise or pursue any other remedy or cause of action permitted at Law or at equity or under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, including but not limited to foreclosure of the Mortgage and enforcement of all Loan Documents.

(d) Have the Property appraised, at Borrower’s cost.

(e) Cause an environmental assessment to be conducted on the Property, at Borrower’s cost.

9.2. Right of Lender to Make Advances to Cure Defaults. In the event that Borrower shall fail to perform any of its covenants or agreements herein or in any of the other Loan Documents contained, Lender may (but shall not be required to) perform any of such covenants and agreements, and any amounts so expended by Lender shall be deemed advanced by Lender under an obligation to do so regardless of the identity of the Person or Persons to whom said funds are disbursed. Loan Proceeds advanced by Lender in the exercise of its judgment that the same are needed to complete the Property, to protect its security for the Loan are obligatory advances hereunder and shall constitute additional indebtedness payable on demand which is evidenced and secured by the Loan Documents.

9.3. No Waiver. No failure by Lender to exercise, or delay by Lender in exercising, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof, or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies provided in this Agreement and in the Loan Documents are cumulative and not exclusive of each other or of any right or remedy provided by law or equity. No notice to or demand on Borrower in any case shall, in itself entitle Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of Lender to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand. Lender may from time to time in its discretion grant waivers or consents in respect of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents for Defaults, Events of Default or other provisions of this Agreement and/or the other Loan Documents, or may assent to amendments hereof or thereof, but no such waiver, consent, or amendment shall be binding upon Lender unless set forth in a writing (which writing shall be narrowly construed) signed by Lender. Furthermore, Lender may, in its sole discretion, accept a cure of any Default or Event of Default after the commencement of any Lender remedies, but any such acceptance shall not be binding upon Lender unless set forth in a writing (which writing shall be narrowly construed) signed by Lender. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, neither Lender’s acceptance of one or more late payments or charges nor Lender’s acceptance of interest on overdue amounts at the respective rates applicable thereto shall constitute a waiver of any right of Lender.

9.4. Availability of Remedies. All of the remedies set forth herein, in the other Loan Documents and/or provided by Law or equity shall be equally available to Lender, and the choice by Lender of one (1) such alternative over another shall not be subject to question or challenge by Borrower or any other person, nor shall any such choice be asserted as a defense, set off, or failure to mitigate damages in any action, proceeding, or counteraction by Lender to recover or seeking any other remedy under this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents, nor shall such choice preclude Lender from subsequently electing to exercise a different remedy, except as otherwise provided by Law. The parties have agreed to the alternative remedies hereof specified in part because they recognize that the choice of remedies in the event of a failure hereunder will necessarily be and should properly be a matter of business judgment, which the passage of time and events may or may not prove to have been the best choice to maximize recovery by Lender at the lowest cost to Borrower. It is the intention of the parties that such choice by Lender be given conclusive effect regardless of such subsequent developments. At any sale of the security or collateral for the Loan or any part thereof whether by foreclosure or otherwise, Lender may in its discretion purchase all or any part of such collateral so sold or offered for sale for its own account and may apply against the balance due Lender pursuant to the terms of the Note the amount bid therefore.

SECTION 10
MISCELLANEOUS

10.1. Time Is of the Essence. Lender and Borrower agree that time is of the essence of all of Borrower’s covenants under this Agreement.

10.2. Prior Agreements. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and any other documents or instruments executed pursuant thereto or contemplated thereby, shall represent the entire, integrated agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the Loan and shall supersede all prior negotiations, representations, or term sheets or commitment letters, if any or agreements pertaining thereto, either oral or written. This Agreement and any provision hereof shall not be modified, amended, waived or discharged in any manner other than by a written amendment executed by all parties to this Agreement. An action on the part of the Lender waiving a specific provision or requirement herein contained, shall not be construed to be a waiver of future application of such provision or requirement or a waiver of any other provision or requirement hereunder.

10.3. Indemnification. To the fullest extent permitted by Law, Borrower hereby agrees to protect, indemnify, defend and save harmless, Lender and its directors, officers, agents and employees from and against any and all liability, expense or damage of any kind or nature and from any suits, claims, or demands, including legal fees and expenses, arising out of this Agreement or in connection herewith, except to the extent such suit, claim or damage is caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Lender. This obligation on the part of Borrower shall survive the closing of the Loan, the repayment thereof and any cancellation of this Agreement.

10.4. Captions. The captions and headings of various sections of this Agreement and exhibits pertaining hereto are for convenience only and not to be considered as defining or limiting in any way the scope or intent of the provisions hereof.

10.5. Inconsistent Terms and Partial Invalidity. In the event of any inconsistency among the terms hereof (including incorporated terms), or between such terms and the terms of any other Loan Document, this Agreement shall be controlling. If any provision of this Agreement, or any paragraph, sentence, clause, phrase, or word, or the application thereof, in any circumstances, is adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, the validity of the remainder of this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid part were never included herein.

10.6. Gender and Number. Any word herein which is expressed in the masculine or neuter gender shall be deemed to include the masculine, feminine and neuter genders.

Reference to this Agreement contained in any of the foregoing documents shall be deemed to include all written amendments and supplements to this Agreement.

10.8. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. THE PARTIES HERETO ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT THERE MAY BE A CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL IN CONNECTION WITH ANY CLAIM, DISPUTE OR LAWSUIT ARISING BETWEEN OR AMONG THEM, BUT THAT SUCH RIGHT MAY BE WAIVED. ACCORDINGLY, THE PARTIES AGREE THAT, NOTWITHSTANDING SUCH CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT, IN THIS COMMERCIAL MATTER, THE PARTIES BELIEVE AND AGREE THAT IT SHALL BE IN THEIR BEST INTERESTS TO WAIVE SUCH RIGHT, AND, ACCORDINGLY, HEREBY WAIVE SUCH RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL, AND FURTHER AGREE THAT THE BEST FORUM FOR HEARING ANY CLAIM, DISPUTE, OR LAWSUIT, IF ANY, ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, OR THE RELATIONSHIP AMONG THE PARTIES HERETO, IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, OR WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE, SHALL BE A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION SITTING WITHOUT A JURY.

10.9. Notices. Except for service of process as set forth in Section 10.10 below, any notice required under applicable Law to be given in another manner, any notice, demand, request or other communication which any party hereto may be required or may desire to give hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been properly given (i) if hand delivered or if sent by telecopy, effective upon receipt or (ii) if delivered by overnight courier service, effective upon receipt, or (iii) if mailed by United States registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, effective upon receipt, or rejection or refusal; addressed in each case as follows:

The Borrower hereby irrevocably consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of any state or federal court in the county or judicial district in Cuyahoga County, Ohio; provided that nothing contained in this Agreement will prevent the Lender from bringing any action, enforcing any award or judgment or exercising any rights against the Borrower individually, against any security or against any property of the Borrower within any other county, state or other foreign or domestic jurisdiction. The Lender and the Borrower agree that the venue provided above is the most convenient forum for both the Lender and the Borrower. The Borrower waives any objection to venue and any objection based on a more convenient forum in any action instituted under this Agreement.

10.12. Waiver of Damages. In no event shall Lender be liable to Borrower for punitive, exemplary or consequential damages, including, without limitation, lost profits, whatever the nature of a breach by Lender of its obligations under this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents, and Borrower for itself and its Guarantors waive all claims for punitive, exemplary or consequential damages.

10.13. Important Information About Procedures Required by the USA Patriot Act. To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, Federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each entity or person who opens an account or establishes a relationship with Lender.

What this means: When an entity or person opens an account or establishes a relationship with Lender, Lender may ask for the name, address, date of birth, and other information that will allow the Lender to identify the entity or person who opens an account or establishes a relationship with Lender. Lender may also ask to see identifying documents for the entity or person.

10.14. Preservation of Rights. No delay or omission on the Lender’s part to exercise any right or power arising hereunder will impair any such right or power or be considered a waiver of any such right or power, nor will the Lender s action or inaction impair any such right or power. The Lender’s rights and remedies hereunder are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights or remedies which the Lender may have under other agreements, at law or in equity.

10.15. Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterpart copies and by the parties hereto on separate counterparts, but all such copies shall constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by facsimile transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart. Any party so executing this Agreement by facsimile transmission shall promptly deliver a manually executed counterpart, provided that any failure to do so shall not affect the validity of the counterpart executed by facsimile transmission.

10.16. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower and the Lender and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns; provided, however, that the Borrower may not assign this Agreement in whole or in part without the Lender’s prior written consent and the Lender at any time may assign this Agreement in whole or in part.

10.17. Assignments and Participations. At any time, without any notice to the Borrower, the Lender may sell, assign, transfer, negotiate, grant participations in, or otherwise dispose of all or any part of the Lender’s interest in the Loan. The Borrower hereby authorizes the Lender to provide, without any notice to the Borrower, any information concerning the Borrower, including information pertaining to the Borrower’s financial condition, business operations or general creditworthiness, to any Person which may succeed to or participate in all or any part of the Lender’s interest in the Loan, or which is considering doing so.

10.18. Waiver of Marshalling of Assets. TO THE GREATEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, BORROWER HEREBY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO REQUIRE MARSHALLING OF ASSETS BY LENDER.

10.19. Further Assurances. Borrower covenants and agrees to execute any and all other documents required by Lender in connection with this Agreement required to perfect Lender’s security interest(s) in the Collateral or to otherwise comply with and effectuate the terms of the Loan Documents.

10.20. Lender’s Action for Its Own Protection Only. The authority herein conferred upon Lender, and any action taken by Lender, including, without limitation, actions to inspect the Property, to procure waivers or sworn statements, to approve contracts, and to approve Plans and Specifications, will be exercised and taken by Lender, the Inspecting Agent, and by Lender’s other advisors or representatives for their own protection only and may not be relied upon by Borrower or any other Person for any purposes whatever. Neither Lender, the Inspecting Agent nor any other advisor or representative of Lender shall be deemed to have assumed any responsibility to Borrower or any other Person with respect to any such action herein authorized or taken by Lender or any other advisor or representative of Lender or with respect to the proper construction of improvements on the Property, performance of contracts, subcontracts or purchase orders by any contractor, subcontractor or material supplier, or prevention of mechanics’ liens from being claimed or asserted against any of the Property. Any review, investigation or inspection conducted by Lender, the Inspecting Agent or any other architectural or engineering consultants retained by Lender or any agent or representative of Lender in order to verify independently Borrower’s satisfaction of any conditions precedent to Loan disbursements under this Agreement, Borrower’s performance of any of the covenants, agreements and obligations of Borrower under this Agreement, or the validity of any representations and warranties made by Borrower hereunder (regardless of whether or not the party conducting such review, investigation or inspection should have discovered that any of such conditions precedent were not satisfied or that any such covenants, agreements or obligations were not performed or that any such representations or warranties were not true), shall not affect (or constitute a waiver by Lender of) (i) any of Borrower’s representations and warranties under this Agreement or Lender’s reliance thereon or (ii) Lender’s reliance upon any certifications of Borrower or the Architect required under this Agreement or any other facts, information or reports furnished Lender by Borrower hereunder.

10.21. Operation of Property. As long as any portion of the Loan remains outstanding, the Property shall be operated in a commercially reasonable manner.

10.22. Proceeds of Collateral. Any proceeds of collateral received by Lender after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, shall be applied: first, to pay any fees, indemnities, protective advances, or expense reimbursements including amounts then due to the Lender from Borrower or any Guarantor (including any Hedging Contracts, but excluding any prepayment fee or termination fee under a Hedging Contract), second, to pay any fees or expense reimbursements then due to Lender under this Agreement or any Loan Document from Borrower or any Guarantor (including any Hedging Contracts, but excluding any prepayment fee or termination fee under a Hedging Contract), third, to pay interest then due and payable on the Loan, ratably to the Lender in, and interest then due and payable under any Hedging Contracts, and fourth to repay all principal due under the Loan to the Lender, and payment of all amounts due and owing with respect to any Hedging Contracts, including any prepayment fees or termination fees under a Hedging Contract (but excluding scheduled interest payments allocated pursuant to clause third, above). Notwithstanding the foregoing, amounts received from Borrower or any Guarantor that is not an “eligible contract participant” under the Commodity Exchange Act shall not be applied to any Excluded Swap Obligations (it being understood, that in the event that any amount is applied to Indebtedness other than Excluded Swap Obligations as a result of this clause, Lender shall make such adjustments as it determines are appropriate to distributions pursuant to the clauses above from amounts received from “eligible contract participants” under the Commodity Exchange Act to ensure, as nearly as possible, that the proportional aggregate recoveries with respect to Indebtedness described in the clauses above by the holders of any Excluded Swap Obligations are the same as the proportional aggregate recoveries with respect to other Indebtedness pursuant to the clauses above).
