New Borrower acknowledges that it is a condition of Lender’s consent to the Requested Actions that New Indemnitor, as New Indemnitor under the New Indemnitor Joinder (as defined below), shall maintain the Net Worth Threshold required by the terms of the New Indemnitor Joinder. If, and only if, at any time while the Loan remains outstanding New Indemnitor fails or is unable to maintain the Net Worth Threshold required by the terms of the New Indemnitor Joinder, New Borrower acknowledges and agrees that New Borrower shall give Lender written notice of such failure within ten (10) days of such failure and, if New Indemnitor fails to take such action as is

 

16


necessary to comply with the Net Worth Threshold requirement within thirty (30) days after the date of such notice and to provide Lender with proof of New Indemnitor’s compliance with the Net Worth Threshold requirement within such time period, Additional Indemnitor (as defined in the New Indemnitor Joinder) shall immediately and automatically become an additional indemnitor. The Additional Indemnitor shall, at Lender’s request, execute a joinder substantially in the form of the New Indemnitor Joinder (“Additional Indemnity”). New Borrower acknowledges and agrees that New Borrower’s failure to promptly cause Additional Indemnitor to execute the Additional Indemnity, if requested by Lender, within thirty (30) days of Lender’s request therefore, shall constitute an Event of Default under the Loan Documents. In addition, New Borrower acknowledges and agrees that it shall also be an Event of Default under the Loan Documents if any time after Additional Indemnitor becomes liable under the Guaranty and the Environmental Indemnity pursuant to the terms of the New Indemnitor Joinder, Additional Indemnitor fails or is unable to maintain the Net Worth Threshold required by the terms of the New Indemnitor Joinder.

3.7. No Secondary or Mezzanine Financing.

3.8. References to Loan Documents. All references to the term Loan Documents in the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents shall hereinafter be modified to include this Agreement and all documents executed and/or required in connection with the Requested Actions.

1. Defined Terms. All capitalized terms used in this Original Indemnitor Joinder, unless defined herein, shall have the meanings given such terms in the Agreement.

2. Reaffirmation of Guaranty and Environmental Indemnity. The Guaranty and the Environmental Indemnity constitute the valid, legally binding obligation of Original Indemnitor, enforceable against Original Indemnitor in accordance with their respective terms. By Original Indemnitor’s execution hereof, Original Indemnitor waives and releases any and all defenses, affirmative defenses, setoffs, claims, counterclaims and causes of action of any kind or nature which Original Indemnitor has asserted, or might assert, against any of Lender Parties which in any way relate to or arise out of the Guaranty and the Environmental Indemnity or any of the other Loan Documents.

3. Agreements of Original Indemnitor. Original Indemnitor consents to the execution and delivery of the Agreement by Original Borrower and New Borrower and agrees and acknowledges that, except as set forth in paragraphs 5 and 6 below, the liability of Original Indemnitor under the Guaranty and the Environmental Indemnity shall not be diminished in any way by the execution and delivery of the Agreement or by the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated therein, including but not limited to the Requested Actions.

4. Authority Representations by the Original Indemnitor. The execution and delivery of, and performance under, this Original Indemnitor Joinder, the Guaranty and the Environmental Indemnity by Original Indemnitor will not (a) violate any provision of any law, rule, regulation, order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree, determination or award presently in effect having applicability to Original Indemnitor or (b) result in a breach of or constitute or cause a default under any indenture, agreement, lease or instrument to which Original Indemnitor is a party or by which the Project may be bound or affected.

5. Release of Original Indemnitor under Guaranty. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Original Indemnitor Joinder, the Security Instrument, or the other Loan Documents, Original Indemnitor’s obligations hereunder and under the Guaranty shall not apply with respect to, and by acceptance of this Original Indemnitor Joinder, Lender agrees that Original Indemnitor is hereby released from any and all of Original Indemnitor’s obligations under the Guaranty (the “Guaranteed Obligations”) for acts or events occurring or obligations arising after the Acquisition Date except for: (a) any material misrepresentation of Original Indemnitor in this Original Indemnitor Joinder or any other document executed in connection


herewith, and/or (b) Guaranteed Obligations that are caused by Original Borrower and/or Original Indemnitor and/or any of their agents.

6. Release of Original Indemnitor Under Environmental Indemnity. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Original Indemnitor Joinder, the Security Instrument or the Loan Documents, Original Indemnitor’s obligations hereunder and under the Environmental Indemnity shall not apply with respect to, and by acceptance of this Original Indemnitor Joinder, Lender agrees that Original Indemnitor is hereby released for all acts or events occurring or obligations arising under the Environmental Indemnity (“Environmental Indemnity Obligations”) after the Acquisition Date unless such Environmental Indemnity Obligations are: (a) caused by Original Borrower, Original Indemnitor and/or any of their agents, or (b) result from the existence of conditions existing prior to the Acquisition Date or migrating to or from any portion of the Project prior to the Acquisition Date, or result from a violation of Environmental Law prior to the Acquisition Date. For purposes of this Original Indemnitor Joinder, Original Indemnitor shall bear the burden of proving when Hazardous Materials first existed upon, about or beneath the Project or began migrating to or from the Project and when a violation of Environmental Law first occurred; provided however, the foregoing burden of proof is for the benefit of Lender, its successors and assigns, and is not for the benefit of any third party.

7. Confirmation of Representations.

New Indemnitor further agrees to pay, perform and discharge each and every obligation of payment and performance of any guarantor/indemnitor under, pursuant to and as set forth in the Guaranty from and after the Acquisition Date, as amended hereby, at the time, in the manner and otherwise in all respects as therein provided. For the avoidance of doubt, Lender hereby acknowledges and agrees that New Indemnitor shall not be liable for the obligations of Original Indemnitor under the Guaranty for any obligations, claims, matters or causes of action of any nature arising prior to the Acquisition Date. From and after the date hereof, the Guaranty is amended to provide that all references to the term “Borrower” used in the Guaranty shall mean and refer to the New Borrower and the term “Guarantor” used in the Guaranty shall mean and refer to the New Indemnitor.

4. Assumption by New Indemnitor of Environmental Indemnity. New Indemnitor, jointly and severally, hereby assumes and agrees to be liable and responsible for and bound by all of the Original Indemnitor’s obligations, agreements and liabilities, including but not limited to the jury waiver and other waivers set forth therein, under the Environmental Indemnity as fully and completely as if New Indemnitor had signed such Environmental Indemnity, as amended hereby, as the indemnitor/guarantor thereunder, including without limitation, all of those obligations, agreements and liabilities which would have been the obligations, agreements and liabilities of Original Indemnitor, without regard to when such obligations, agreements and liabilities arise, accrue or have arisen or accrued and without regard


to the Original Indemnitor’s responsibility therefore, if any. New Indemnitor further agrees to pay, perform, and discharge each and every obligation of payment and performance of any guarantor/indemnitor under, pursuant to and as set forth in the Environmental Indemnity, as amended hereby, at the time, in the manner and otherwise in all respects as therein provided.

From and after the date hereof, the Environmental Indemnity is amended to provide that all references to the term “Borrower” used in the Environmental Indemnity shall mean and refer to the New Borrower and the terms “Indemnitor” and “Indemnitor” used in the Environmental Indemnity shall mean and refer to the New Indemnitor and New Borrower.

5. Confirmation of Representations. By its execution hereof, New Indemnitor confirms the representations and warranties and agrees to the covenants regarding New Indemnitor set forth in the Agreement, including without limitation, the obligation in Section 2.5 (a) to pay the Indemnification Costs.

6. Authority Representations by New Indemnitor. The execution and delivery of this New Indemnitor Joinder, and performance by New Indemnitor under the New Indemnitor Joinder, the Guaranty and Environmental Indemnity will not, to New Indemnitor’s knowledge, (a) violate any provision of any law, rule, regulation, order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree, determination or award presently in effect having applicability to New Indemnitor or (b) result in a breach of or constitute or cause a default under any indenture, agreement, lease or instrument to which New Indemnitor is a party or by which the Project may be bound or affected.

7. Net Worth.

a. New Indemnitor and Additional Indemnitor represent and warrant to Lender, each as to itself, as an inducement to Lender to consent to the Requested Actions, that each of New Indemnitor and Additional Indemnitor has a Net Worth (as defined below) of not less than $50,000,000.00 and $1,000,000.00 liquidity (collectively, the “Net Worth Threshold”). If, and only if, at any time while the Loan remains outstanding, New Indemnitor fails or is unable to maintain the Net Worth Threshold and New Indemnitor fails to take such action as is necessary to comply with the Net Worth Threshold requirement within thirty (30) days after the date New Borrower provides Lender with notice of such failure as required by the Agreement and to provide Lender with proof of New Indemnitor’s compliance with the Net Worth Threshold requirement, Additional Indemnitor shall automatically, without any action required by Lender or any other party, immediately become an additional indemnitor under the Guaranty and the Environmental Indemnity and shall jointly and severally with New Indemnitor be liable and responsible for and bound by all of New Indemnitor’s obligations, agreements and liabilities, including but not limited to, the jury waiver and other waivers set forth therein, under the Guaranty and the Environmental Indemnity, as fully and completely as if the Additional Indemnitor had originally executed and delivered such Guaranty and Environmental Indemnity as the guarantor/indemnitor thereunder. For purposes of this Section, “Net Worth” shall mean, as of any date, the difference between (i) New Indemnitor’s total assets that would appear on a balance sheet of New Indemnitor prepared as of such date in accordance with current market value basis of accounting, and (ii) New Indemnitor’s total liabilities, including, without limitation, any obligations under direct or indirect guarantees and obligations (contingent or

otherwise) to purchase or otherwise acquire, or otherwise to assure a creditor against loss, in either instance in respect of obligations of others, that would appear on a balance sheet of New Indemnitor prepared as of such date in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. From and after the date that Additional Indemnitor shall become an additional indemnitor under the Guaranty and the Environmental Indemnity. Additional Indemnitor shall also be required to, at all times, maintain the Net Worth Threshold and failure to do shall constitute an Event of Default under the Loan Documents and the Guaranty.

However, and although not required to establish Additional Indemnitor’s liability hereunder or under the Guaranty and the Environmental Indemnity, Additional Indemnitor agrees to execute and deliver to Lender the Additional Indemnity (as defined in Section 3.6 of the Assumption Agreement) within thirty (30) days of Lender’s request for such Additional Indemnity.

8. Additional Payment Guaranty.

In addition to, and not in substitution for or modification or amendment of, the provisions of the Guaranty, New Indemnitor hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to Lender the full and prompt payment of all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees) incurred by Lender upon any event which is or would be covered by any insurance policy insuring the Property due solely to New Borrower’s failure to pay the amounts of the deductible and/or coverage under any insurance policy insuring the Property that has been modified pursuant to the Insurance Modifications (the “Insurance”) within twenty (20) days after the occurrence of any event of loss and/or damage to the Property and the improvements placed or constructed thereon resulting from any act or series of acts covered by, or which would be covered by, such Insurance (the “Additional Payment Guaranty”).

b. Separate and Distinct Guaranty. New Indemnitor hereby specifically acknowledges and agrees that the Additional Payment Guaranty is a separate and distinct guaranty obligation of New Indemnitor and that it is in addition to, and not in lieu of, or otherwise incorporated with or into, any of New Indemnitor’s other obligations under the Guaranty pursuant to, and as modified by, this New Indemnitor Joinder.

9. Notices to New Indemnitor. From and after the Acquisition Date, Lender shall deliver any notices to New Indemnitor which are required to be delivered pursuant to the Guaranty and the Environmental Indemnity, or are otherwise delivered by the Lender thereunder at Lender’s sole discretion, to the New Indemnitor at the following address:
