The Loan shall be evidenced by the Note and shall be repaid in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Note. 2.1.4 Register and Participant Register. As a material inducement to Lender making the Loan, Borrower hereby appoints Lender to serve as Borrower’s non-fiduciary agent, which agency is coupled with an interest, solely for purposes of this Section 2.1.4, to maintain a register of the names and addresses of all holders of direct interests in the Loan (each a “Co- Lender”), and the principal amount and stated interest thereon, pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time while Lender is a holder of the Loan (the “Register”). If Lender or any Co- Lender sells a participation in the Loan, Lender or Co-Lender (as applicable) shall maintain a register of the name and address of each participant and the principal amounts and stated interest of each participant’s interest in the Loan pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time while Lender or Co-Lender (as applicable) is a holder of the Loan (the “Participant Register”).

The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and Borrower, Lender and any Co-Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Co-Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by Borrower and any Co-Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and Lender and any Co-Lender (as applicable) shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. Registrar’s failure to maintain such Register and Participant Register, or any error therein, shall not affect Borrower’s obligations in respect of the Loan, and Borrower hereby waives any and all claims against Registrar, Lender and Co-Lender (as applicable) for losses, expenses, costs and/or damages arising out of or relating to such failure. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Loan (including any Note evidencing such Loan) is a registered obligation, and the right, title and interest of the Co-Lenders in and to such Loan shall be transferable only upon notation of such transfer in the Register and no assignment thereof shall be effective until recorded therein. This Section 2.1.4 and Section 10.1 shall be construed so that the Loan is at all times maintained in “registered form”


 
15 Cortona – Loan Agreement within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Code. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of this Section 2.1.4 shall not limit any right of any holder of the Loan to assign its interest in the Loan or any portion thereof, provided that as long as Lender holds a note evidencing the Loan, such assignment is recorded in the Register. Upon repayment of the Loan, including, without limitation, upon an assignment of the Note and Mortgage to a new lender in connection with the refinancing of the Loan or the obtaining of a new loan, Lender named herein (and Co-Lender, if applicable) shall automatically cease to be Registrar and shall no longer maintain such Register or any Participant Register, nor shall it be required to register such assignment of the Note and Mortgage, and Borrower shall automatically become Registrar for the Register unless and until it affirmatively appoints a replacement registrar to assume such duties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, there is no Co-Lender in the Loan. Section 2.2 Interest Rate. 2.2.1 Payment of Principal and Interest. Principal and interest under the Loan shall be payable as follows: (a) The initial Interest Rate is 2.65%. The Interest Rate will be reset by Lender, effective as of the first day of the first month following the month during which the Advance Date occurs, and effective the first day of the first month of each successive one month period thereafter during the term of the Loan (individually a “Rate Reset Date” and collectively “Rate Reset Dates”). The Interest Rate will be reset as aforesaid to the annual rate equal to the greater of (a) 2.65% or (b) the sum of (i) 240 basis points (2.40%) plus (ii) the LIBOR Rate in effect at the close of business in London on the second LIBOR Business Day prior to each of the Rate Reset Dates. (b) Borrower shall pay interest only for the period from the Advance Date and ending on the last day of the month in which the Advance Date occurs. Borrower shall make such payment of interest only in advance on the Advance Date and shall then pay interest only in arrears, on the first day of the second month following the Advance Date and thereafter Borrower shall make payments of interest only on the first day of each month through and including the eighty-fourth (84th) full calendar month following the Advance Date. The entire outstanding principal balance of the Loan together with all accrued interest and all other sums due under the Loan Documents, shall be paid on the first day of the eighty-fifth (85th) month following the Advance Date unless the Advance Date occurs on the first (1st) of the month, in which case the maturity date shall be the eighty-fourth (84th) month following the month in which the Advance Date occurs (the “Maturity Date”). Interest shall be calculated on a daily basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a 360-day year. (c) On the Maturity Date, a final payment in the aggregate amount of the unpaid principal sum evidenced by the Note, all accrued and unpaid interest, and all other unpaid amounts of the Secured Indebtedness shall become immediately payable in full. (d) Borrower acknowledges and agrees that a substantial portion of the original Loan Amount shall be outstanding and due on the Maturity Date.


 
16 Cortona – Loan Agreement Section 2.3 Application of Payments. At the election of Lender, and to the extent permitted by law, all payments shall be applied in the order selected by Lender to any expenses, prepayment fees, late charges, escrow deposits and other sums due and payable under the Loan Documents, and to unpaid interest at the Interest Rate or at the Default Rate, as applicable. The balance of any payments shall be applied to reduce the then unpaid Loan Amount. Section 2.4 Security. The covenants of the Security Instrument are incorporated by reference into this Agreement. The Note shall evidence, and the Security Instrument shall secure, the Secured Indebtedness. Section 2.5 Late Charge. If any payment of interest and/or principal (other than the outstanding principal balance of the Loan on the Maturity Date), or any payment of a required escrow deposit is not paid within seven (7) days after the due date, Lender shall have the option to charge Borrower the Late Charge. The Late Charge is for the purpose of defraying the expenses incurred in connection with handling and processing delinquent payments and is payable in addition to any other remedy Lender may have. Unpaid Late Charges shall become part of the Secured Indebtedness and shall be added to any subsequent payments due under the Loan Documents. Section 2.6 Acceleration Upon Event of Default. At the option of Lender, if Borrower fails to pay any sum specified in this Agreement or the Note within seven (7) days after the due date, or if any other Event of Default occurs, the Accelerated Loan Amount shall become immediately due and payable. Section 2.7 Interest Upon Event of Default. The Accelerated Loan Amount shall bear interest at the Default Rate which shall never exceed the maximum rate of interest permitted to be contracted for under the laws of the State. The Default Rate shall commence upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and shall continue until all defaults are cured. Section 2.8 Limitation on Interest. The agreements made by Borrower with respect to this Agreement, the Note and the other Loan Documents are expressly limited so that in no event shall the amount of interest received, charged or contracted for by Lender exceed the highest lawful amount of interest permissible under the laws applicable to the Loan. If at any time performance of any provision of this Agreement, the Note or the other Loan Documents results in the highest lawful rate of interest permissible under applicable laws being exceeded, then the amount of interest received, charged or contracted for by Lender shall automatically and without further action by any party be deemed to have been reduced to the highest lawful amount of interest then permissible under applicable laws. If Lender shall ever receive, charge or contract for, as interest, an amount which is unlawful, at Lender’s election, the amount of unlawful interest shall be refunded to Borrower (if actually paid) or applied to reduce the then unpaid Loan Amount. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable laws, any amounts contracted for, charged or received under the Loan Documents included for the purpose of determining whether the Interest Rate would exceed the highest lawful rate shall be calculated by allocating and spreading such interest to and over the full stated term of the Loan. Section 2.9 Prepayment. Borrower shall not have the right to prepay all or any portion of the Loan Amount at any time during the term of this Loan except as expressly set forth


 
17 Cortona – Loan Agreement in this Section 2.9. If Borrower provides notice of its intention to prepay, the Accelerated Loan Amount shall become due and payable on the date specified in the prepayment notice. 2.9.1 Prepayment Fee. The Loan may not be prepaid in whole or in part at any time prior to the Maturity Date except as follows: commencing on the Prepayment Commencement Date, Borrower may prepay the Secured Indebtedness subject to the Prepayment Fee on no less than ten (10) days’ prior written notice to Lender; provided, however, that (A) any such prepayment notice shall be revocable by Borrower with written notice to Lender at least one (1) Business Day prior to the proposed prepayment date, so long as in any event Borrower indemnifies and holds Lender harmless from and against any out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Lender as a consequence of any such revocation of a prepayment notice, which amounts shall be payable within ten (10) Business Days of Lender’s written demand therefor, and (B) Borrower shall not be entitled to revoke more than one (1) prepayment notice during any twelve (12) month period of the term of the Loan. Any tender of payment by Borrower or any other person or entity of the Secured Indebtedness, other than as expressly provided in the preceding sentence, shall constitute a prohibited prepayment. If a prepayment of all or any part of the Secured Indebtedness is made following (i) an Event of Default and an acceleration of the Maturity Date, (ii) the application of money to the principal of the Loan after a casualty or condemnation, or (iii) in connection with a purchase of the Property or a repayment of the Secured Indebtedness at any time before, during or after, a judicial or non-judicial foreclosure or sale of the Property, then to compensate Lender for the loss of the investment, if such event occurs prior to the Prepayment Commencement Date, Borrower shall pay to Lender an amount equal to the Default Prepayment Fee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as Borrower makes a good faith effort to recover any Default Prepayment Fee which would be due as a result of a casualty or condemnation, from the insurer in the case of a casualty or from the condemning authority, then the Default Prepayment Fee due as a result of the casualty or condemnation shall be waived except to the extent recovered by Borrower. Lender will, upon request, provide an estimate of the amount of the Prepayment Fee two (2) weeks before the date of the scheduled prepayment. 2.9.2 Waiver of Right to Prepay Note Without Prepayment Fee or Default Prepayment Fee. Borrower acknowledges that Lender has relied upon the anticipated investment return under the Note and this Agreement in entering into transactions with, and in making commitments to, third parties and that the tender of any prohibited prepayment or any permitted prepayment which pursuant to the terms of the Note and/or this Agreement requires a Prepayment Fee or Default Prepayment Fee shall include the Prepayment Fee or Default Prepayment Fee, as applicable. Borrower agrees that the determination of the Interest Rate was based on the intent, expectation and agreement (and the Interest Rate would have been higher without such agreement) of Borrower and Lender that the amounts advanced under the Note and this Agreement would not be prepaid during the term of this Loan, or if any such prepayment would occur, the Prepayment Fee or Default Prepayment Fee would apply (except as expressly permitted by the terms of this Agreement and the Note). Borrower also agrees that the Prepayment Fee or Default Prepayment Fee represents the reasonable estimate of Lender and Borrower of a fair average compensation for the loss that may be sustained by Lender as a result of a prepayment of the Loan and it shall be paid without prejudice to the right of Lender to collect any other amounts provided to be paid under the Loan Documents.


 
18 Cortona – Loan Agreement BORROWER EXPRESSLY (A) WAIVES ANY RIGHTS IT MAY HAVE UNDER THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF MISSOURI TO PREPAY THE LOAN, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, WITHOUT FEE OR PENALTY, UPON ACCELERATION OF THE MATURITY DATE OF THE LOAN, AND (B) AGREES THAT IF, FOR ANY REASON, A PREPAYMENT OF THE LOAN IS MADE, UPON OR FOLLOWING ANY ACCELERATION OF THE MATURITY DATE OF THE LOAN BY LENDER ON ACCOUNT OF ANY DEFAULT BY BORROWER UNDER ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY TRANSFER, FURTHER ENCUMBRANCE OR DISPOSITION WHICH IS PROHIBITED OR RESTRICTED BY THIS AGREEMENT, THE SECURITY INSTRUMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, THEN BORROWER SHALL BE OBLIGATED TO PAY LENDER CONCURRENTLY THE DEFAULT PREPAYMENT FEE. BY EXECUTING THE NOTE AND THIS AGREEMENT, BORROWER AGREES THAT LENDER’S AGREEMENT TO MAKE THE LOAN AT THE INTEREST RATE AND FOR THE TERM SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT CONSTITUTES ADEQUATE CONSIDERATION FOR THIS WAIVER AND AGREEMENT. Section 2.10 Interest Rate Cap Agreement.

The Interest Rate Cap Agreement (i) shall be in form reasonably acceptable to Lender, (ii) shall be with a counterparty acceptable to Lender and which counterparty shall have a credit rating of “A2” or better by Moody’s and “A” or better by S&P, (iii) shall direct such acceptable counterparty to deposit any and all payments due under the Interest Rate Cap Agreement directly into an account designated by Lender so long as any portion of the Loan remains outstanding, provided however, for purposes of this requirement, the Loan shall be deemed to be remaining outstanding if the Property is transferred to Lender (or its nominee or designee) by judicial foreclosure or non-judicial foreclosure or by deed-in-lieu thereof, (iv) shall be for a term equal to the term of the Loan, and (v) shall have an initial notional amount equal to the principal balance of the Loan. No later than the date on which Borrower enters into an Interest Rate Cap Agreement (or any replacement thereof) in accordance with this Section 2.10 (the “Cap Date”), Borrower shall collaterally assign to Lender, pursuant to an assignment which is in form and substance acceptable to Lender, all of its right, title and interest to receive any and all payments under the Interest Rate Cap Agreement (or any replacement thereof), and no later than fifteen (15) days following the Cap Date Borrower shall deliver to Lender an executed counterpart of such Interest Rate Cap Agreement and an executed counterpart to such assignment from the counterparty under the Interest Rate Cap Agreement (or any replacement thereof), which shall by their terms authorize the assignment to Lender and require that payments be deposited directly into the account as shall be designated by Lender.

Borrower shall take all actions reasonably required by Lender to enforce Lender’s rights under the Interest Rate Cap Agreement in the event of a default by the counterparty and shall not waive, amend or otherwise modify any of its rights thereunder. In the event of a downgrade of the rating of the counterparty below in “A3” by Moody’s or below “A” by S&P (“Counterparty Rating Downgrade”) or if any such rating is withdrawn or qualified, at Lender’s option, Borrower shall replace the Interest Rate Cap Agreement with a Replacement Interest Rate Cap Agreement with a counterparty acceptable to Lender not later than ten (10) Business Days following receipt of notice from Lender of such downgrade, withdrawal or qualification. In the event that Borrower fails to purchase, deliver and/or maintain the Interest Rate Cap Agreement or any replacement thereof as required hereby, Lender may (in addition to exercising any of its other rights and remedies) purchase such Interest Rate Cap Agreement or any replacement thereof and the costs incurred by Lender in purchasing and maintaining the same shall be paid by Borrower with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date such cost was incurred by Lender until such cost is paid by Borrower to Lender. In connection with the Interest Rate Cap Agreement and each replacement thereof, and no later than thirty (30) days following the Cap Date, Borrower shall obtain and deliver to Lender an opinion of counsel for the counterparty (upon which Lender and its successors and assigns may rely) in form, scope and substance acceptable to Lender regarding the authorization of the counterparty, the legality, validity, and binding effect of the Interest Rate Cap Agreement or replacement thereof, as applicable, and such other matters as Lender shall reasonably require. Borrower shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with the Interest Rate Cap Agreement or any replacement or modification thereof as required hereby, including documentation costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees. In addition to the foregoing, if (x) Borrower has entered into an Interest Rate Cap Agreement in accordance with this Section based upon the LIBOR Rate (the “Existing Rate Cap”); and (y) the Interest Rate is no longer determined by reference to LIBOR as set forth in Section 1.1 - definition of “LIBOR Rate”, then Borrower shall, at Borrower’s sole cost and expense, not later than fifteen (15) days prior to the first payment date under the Loan based on the benchmark rate which has replaced LIBOR in accordance with Section 1.1 - definition of “LIBOR Rate”, (i) make such amendments, modifications or revisions to the Existing Rate Cap or (ii) deliver a substitute Interest Rate Cap Agreement to replace the Existing Rate Cap, in each case, acceptable to Lender, which substitutes the benchmark rate which has replaced LIBOR, is otherwise in accordance with the requirements set forth in this Section 2.10 and which, in either instance, provides Lender a hedge against rising interest rates that is no less beneficial to Lender than that which was originally provided by the Existing Rate Cap. Section 2.11 Excess Cash Flow Reserve. On each monthly payment date occurring on and after the occurrence and continuance of a Cash Management Period (as defined in the Cash Management Agreement), Borrower shall deposit (or cause to be deposited) into an account with Lender or Servicer (the “Excess Cash Flow Account”) an amount equal to the Excess Cash Flow generated by the Property for the immediately preceding interest accrual period (each such monthly deposit being herein referred to as the “Monthly Excess Cash Flow Deposits” and the amounts on deposit in the Excess Cash Flow Account being herein referred to as the “Excess Cash Flow Funds”). The Excess Cash Flow Funds shall be held by Lender as additional


 
20 Cortona – Loan Agreement collateral for the Loan. Provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any Excess Cash Flow Funds remaining in the Excess Cash Flow Account shall be disbursed to Borrower upon fifteen (15) days written request after the expiration of any Cash Management Period in accordance with the applicable terms and conditions hereof.

The Impositions shall be paid not later than ten (10) days before the dates on which the particular Imposition would become delinquent and Borrower shall produce to Lender receipts of the imposing authority, or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to Lender, evidencing the payment of the Imposition in full. If Borrower elects by appropriate legal action to contest any Imposition, Borrower shall first deposit cash with Lender as a reserve in an amount which Lender determines is sufficient to pay the Imposition plus all fines, interest, penalties and costs which may become due pending the determination of the contest. If Borrower deposits this sum with Lender, Borrower shall not be required to pay the Imposition provided that the contest operates to prevent enforcement or collection of the Imposition, and the sale and forfeiture of, the Property, and is prosecuted with due diligence and continuity. Upon termination of any proceeding or contest, Borrower shall pay the amount of the Imposition as finally determined in the proceeding or contest. Provided that there is not then an Event of Default, the monies which have been deposited with Lender pursuant to this Section shall be applied toward such payment and the excess, if any, shall be returned to Borrower.
