3.                                       Indemnity.

(b)                                 Upon written request of any of the Lender Parties and at their sole option, Indemnitor shall immediately undertake the defense of the Lender Parties, at Indemnitor’s sole cost and expense, with counsel reasonably approved by Lender, in connection with any action or proceeding relating to any obligation set forth in this Agreement for which Indemnitor has an obligation to protect, indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Lender Parties (collectively, “Environmental Litigation”).  In the event Indemnitor refuses to undertake the defense of the Lender Parties after receiving such request, or fails to diligently and continuously conduct such defense after receiving such request, or if Indemnitor is not a party to the Environmental Litigation, or is a party to the Environmental Litigation and, in Lender’s reasonable opinion, there is a potential conflict of interest in the sharing of counsel by Indemnitor and the Lender Parties (collectively, the “Independent Defense Events”), then the Lender Parties may undertake their own defense without reducing, limiting or waiving Indemnitor’s obligations to protect, indemnify and hold harmless the Lender Parties as provided in this Agreement.  The actual out-of-pocket costs reasonably incurred by the Lender Parties in undertaking their own defense due to any Independent Defense Event, including but not limited to reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs

 

4



 

and expenses, shall constitute a portion of the indemnification obligations of Indemnitor under this Agreement.  In the absence of an Independent Defense Event, the Lender Parties may elect to engage additional or different counsel at any time without reducing Indemnitor’s obligations to protect, indemnify and hold harmless the Lender Parties as provided in this Agreement, except that the actual attorneys’ fees incurred by the Lender Parties in engaging such additional or different counsel shall not constitute an indemnification duty of the Indemnitor under this Agreement.

 

(c)                                  Notwithstanding the foregoing terms of this Section 3, Indemnitor shall have no liability under this Section 3 for any violation of any Environmental Laws or any disposal of any Hazardous Substances based on any action first occurring, or condition first existing, after any foreclosure or Lender’s acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure of the Mortgage, unless caused by or arising from the acts or omissions of Indemnitor, any Upstream Owner or any of their respective Affiliates or agents.  In the event that Indemnitor disclaims liability under this Agreement based upon the provisions of this paragraph, Indemnitor shall be responsible, at its sole cost and expense, to prove such assertion.

 

(d)                                 The obligations of Indemnitor under this Section 3 shall terminate (other than with respect to any outstanding unfulfilled obligations or claims that have been made) on a date which is twelve (12) months after the date when the Loan is timely repaid in full with Borrower and Indemnitor having satisfied all of their payment and performance obligations under the Loan Documents, provided each of the following conditions have been fully satisfied:  (1) Indemnitor delivers to Lender an environmental site assessment report acceptable to Lender prepared by a properly licensed environmental consultant acceptable to Lender evidencing no contamination by Hazardous Substances and no violation of any Environmental Laws with respect to the Premises; (2) there is no known or suspected contamination of the Premises due to any Hazardous Substances; and (3) there are no outstanding claims, suits or demands existing or threatened with respect to any Hazardous Substances or under any Environmental Laws relating to the Premises.  In all other events, Indemnitor’s obligations under this Section 3 shall survive to the fullest extent and for the maximum time period permitted under applicable law.

 

4.                                       Indemnification Separate from the Loan; No Derogation of Other Available Rights; Survival.

 

(a)                                  This Agreement is given solely to protect Lender against losses, damages, costs, expenses, charges, claims and liabilities, and not as additional security for, or as a means of repayment of, the Loan.  Indemnitor agrees that this Agreement is separate, independent of and in addition to the undertakings of Indemnitor pursuant to the Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents.  The obligations of Indemnitor under this Agreement are independent of, and shall not be measured or affected by (i) any amounts at any time owing under the Note or secured by the Mortgage, (ii) the sufficiency or insufficiency of any collateral (including, without limitation, the Premises) given to Lender to secure the Note, (iii) the consideration given by Lender or any other party in order to acquire the Premises, (iv) the modification, expiration or termination of the Mortgage or any other document or instrument securing or otherwise relating to the loan evidenced by the Note, or (v) the payment in full or other cancellation of the Note (including, without limitation, by amounts paid or credit bid at a foreclosure sale or by discharge in connection with a deed in lieu of foreclosure).

(b)                                 This Agreement is intended to be supplemental, and not in derogation of, Lender’s rights under California Civil Code (“Civil Code”) Section 2929.5 and California Code of Civil Procedure (“CCP”) Sections 564, 726.5 and 736 and any successor sections thereof.  A separate action may be brought to enforce the provisions hereof, which shall in no way be deemed to be an action on the Note, whether or not the Loan has been repaid and whether or not Lender would be entitled to a deficiency judgment following a judicial foreclosure, trustee’s sale or UCC sale.

 

(c)                                  The obligations of Indemnitor hereunder shall not be affected by any exculpatory provisions contained in the Note or any of the other Loan Documents.  Subject to Subsections 3(c) and (d) hereof, this Agreement, and all rights and obligations hereunder, shall survive performance and repayment of the obligations evidenced by and arising under the Loan Documents, surrender of the Note, reconveyance of any Mortgage, release of other security provided in connection with the Loan, trustee’s sale or foreclosure under any Mortgage and/or any of the other Loan Documents (whether by deed or other assignment in lieu of foreclosure, or otherwise), acquisition of the Premises by Lender, any other transfer of the Premises, and transfer of all of Lender’s rights in the Loan, the Loan Documents, and the Premises.  Indemnitor’s obligations under this Agreement are secured by the Mortgage to the extent of the “Secured Environmental Costs” (as defined in the Mortgage) and are unsecured, whether by the Mortgage or otherwise, to the extent of the “Unsecured Environmental Costs” (as defined in the Mortgage).

(b)                                 If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or Lender has reasonable cause to believe that there has been a Release of a Hazardous Substance on, in, under or about the Premises or any Environmental Violation exists or any Hazardous Substance is migrating to or from adjoining property), promptly upon the written request of Lender, Indemnitor shall provide Lender with an environmental site assessment or environmental audit report prepared by an environmental engineering firm acceptable to Lender in its reasonable discretion (a “Borrower Environmental Report”), to assess with a reasonable degree of certainty whether or not any Release exists or has occurred, along with a reasonably detailed description of the potential scope of remediation and of the potential costs that may be incurred in connection with abatement, cleanup or removal of any Hazardous Substance found on, in, under, at, or within the Premises.

14.           Waivers.

 

(a)           TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, INDEMNITOR AND LENDER EACH HEREBY WAIVES THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING BASED UPON, OR RELATED TO, THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS AGREEMENT.  THIS WAIVER IS KNOWINGLY, INTENTIONALLY, AND VOLUNTARILY MADE BY INDEMNITOR AND LENDER, AND EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE OTHER PARTY HAS NOT MADE ANY REPRESENTATIONS OF FACT TO INDUCE THIS WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY OR IN ANY WAY TO MODIFY OR NULLIFY ITS EFFECT.  INDEMNITOR FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT INDEMNITOR HAS BEEN REPRESENTED (OR HAS HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE REPRESENTED) IN THE SIGNING OF THIS AGREEMENT BY INDEPENDENT LEGAL COUNSEL SELECTED BY INDEMNITOR AND THAT INDEMNITOR HAS HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO DISCUSS THIS WAIVER WITH COUNSEL.

 

(b)           Indemnitor hereby waives to the fullest extent not prohibited by law:

 

(i)            Presentment, demand, protest, notice of protest, notice of dishonor and notice of non-payment, non-performance or non-observance, and notice of acceptance of this instrument, other than any notice required to be given hereunder;

 

(ii)           The right, if any, to the benefit of, or to direct the application of, any security held by Lender, including the Premises; and, until all of the indebtedness evidenced by the Note has been paid in full, all rights of subrogation, any right to enforce any remedy

 

13



 

which Lender now has or hereafter may have against Indemnitor, and any right to participate in any security now or hereafter held by Lender;

 

(iii)          The right to require any Lender Parties to proceed against any Borrower or Indemnitor or any other person or party, or to proceed against any security now or hereafter held by Lender, or to pursue any other remedy in Lender’s power;

 

(iv)          The benefits, if Indemnitor is entitled to any benefits, of any or all anti-deficiency statutes or single-action legislation;

 

(v)           Any defense arising out of the absence, impairment, or loss of any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of Indemnitor against any security resulting from the exercise of election of any remedies by Lender, including a judicial foreclosure or the exercise of any power of sale, and any defense arising by reason of any disability or other defense of Indemnitor or by reason of the cessation, from any cause, of the liability of Indemnitor; and

 

(vi)          Any suretyship defense that may be available to such Indemnitor. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Indemnitor also waives (A) any defense based upon Lender’s election to waive its lien as to all or any security for the Loan pursuant to CCP Section 726.5 or otherwise, and (B) any and all benefits which might otherwise be available to such Indemnitor under Civil Code Sections 2809, 2810, 2815, 2819, 2839, 2845 through 2850, 2899 and 3433.

 

Each Indemnitor understands and acknowledges that if this Agreement ever becomes or is deemed secured by real property security and Lender forecloses judicially or nonjudicially against any real property security for this Agreement, that foreclosure could impair or destroy any ability that such Indemnitor may have to seek reimbursement, contribution or indemnification from Borrower or others based on any right such Indemnitor may have of subrogation, reimbursement, contribution or indemnification for any amounts paid by such Indemnitor under this Agreement.  Each Indemnitor further understands and acknowledges that in the absence of this provision, the potential impairment or destruction of such Indemnitor’s rights, if any, may entitle such Indemnitor to assert a defense to this Agreement based on CCP Section 580d as interpreted in Union Bank vs. Gradsky.  By executing this Agreement, each Indemnitor freely, irrevocably and unconditionally:  (i) waives and relinquishes that defense, and agrees that such Indemnitor will be fully liable under this Agreement, even though Lender may foreclose judicially or nonjudicially against any real property security for this Agreement; (ii) agrees that such Indemnitor will not assert that defense in any action or proceeding that Lender may commence to enforce this Agreement; (iii) acknowledges and agrees that the rights and defenses waived by such Indemnitor under this Agreement include any right or defense that such Indemnitor may have or be entitled to assert based upon or arising out of any one or more of the following: (A) CCP Sections 580a (which if such Indemnitor had not given this waiver, would otherwise limit such Indemnitor’s liability after any nonjudicial foreclosure sale to the difference between the obligations for which such Indemnitor is liable and the fair market value of the property or interests sold at such nonjudicial foreclosure sale rather than the actual proceeds of such sale), 580b and 580d (which if such Indemnitor had not given this waiver, would otherwise limit Lender’s right to recover a deficiency judgment with respect to purchase money obligations

 

14



 

and after any nonjudicial foreclosure sale, respectively), or 726 (which, if such Indemnitor had not given this waiver, among other things, would otherwise require Lender to exhaust all of its security before a personal judgment may be obtained for a deficiency); or (B) Civil Code Section 2848; and (iv) acknowledges and agrees that Lender is relying on this waiver in making the Loan, and that this waiver is a material part of the consideration that Lender is receiving for making the Loan.  WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, EACH INDEMNITOR WAIVES ALL RIGHTS AND DEFENSES THAT INDEMNITOR MAY HAVE BECAUSE THIS AGREEMENT IS DEEMED OR BECOMES SECURED BY REAL PROPERTY.  THIS MEANS, AMONG OTHER THINGS:

 

(vii)         LENDER MAY COLLECT FROM SUCH INDEMNITOR WITHOUT FIRST FORECLOSING ON ANY REAL OR PERSONAL PROPERTY COLLATERAL PLEDGED BY BORROWER; AND

 

(viii)        IF LENDER FORECLOSES ON ANY REAL PROPERTY COLLATERAL PLEDGED BY BORROWER:

 

(1)           THE AMOUNT OF LENDER’S CLAIM HEREUNDER MAY BE REDUCED ONLY BY THE PRICE FOR WHICH THAT COLLATERAL IS SOLD AT THE FORECLOSURE SALE, EVEN IF THE COLLATERAL IS WORTH MORE THAN THE SALE PRICE; AND

 

(2)           LENDER MAY COLLECT FROM SUCH INDEMNITOR EVEN IF LENDER, BY FORECLOSING ON THE REAL PROPERTY COLLATERAL, HAS DESTROYED ANY RIGHT SUCH INDEMNITOR MAY HAVE TO COLLECT FROM BORROWER.

 

THIS IS AN UNCONDITIONAL AND IRREVOCABLE WAIVER OF ANY RIGHTS AND DEFENSES SUCH INDEMNITOR MAY HAVE IF THIS AGREEMENT IS DEEMED OR BECOMES SECURED BY REAL PROPERTY.  THESE RIGHTS AND DEFENSES INCLUDE, BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO, ANY RIGHTS OR DEFENSES BASED UPON CCP SECTIONS 580a, 580b, 580d, OR 726.

 

(c)           The failure of Lender to insist upon strict compliance with any of the terms hereof shall not be considered to be a waiver of any such terms, nor shall it prevent Lender from insisting upon strict compliance with this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents at any time thereafter.

 

15.           Severability.  All rights, powers and remedies provided in this Agreement may be exercised only to the extent that the exercise thereof does not violate any applicable law, and are intended to be limited to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary so that they will not render this Agreement invalid or unenforceable.  If any term, covenant, condition, or provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any person or circumstances shall, to any extent, be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining terms, covenants, conditions and provisions of this Agreement, or the application of such term, covenant, condition or provision to persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is held invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each term, covenant, condition and provision of this Agreement shall be

 

15



 

modified and/or limited to the extent necessary to render the same valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.

 

16.           Inconsistencies Among the Loan Documents.  Nothing contained herein is intended to modify in any way the obligations of Indemnitor under the Loan Agreement, the Note, the Mortgage or any other Loan Document.  Any inconsistencies, subject to the prior sentence, among the Loan Documents shall be construed, interpreted and resolved so as to benefit Lender, and Lender’s election of which interpretation or construction is for Lender’s benefit shall govern.

 

17.           Successors and Assigns.  This Agreement shall be binding upon Indemnitor’s successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of Lender, the Lender Parties and their respective successors and assigns, and shall survive payment of the Loan, foreclosure, deed-in-lieu of foreclosure and any other transfer of the Premises or any interest therein, subject to Subsections 3(c) and (d), hereof.

 

18.           Governing Law.  In all respects, including, without limitation, matters of construction and performance of this Agreement and the obligations arising hereunder, this Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the state in which the Premises is located applicable to contracts and obligations made and performed in such state and any applicable laws of the United States of America.  Interpretation and construction of this Agreement shall be according to the contents hereof and without presumption or standard of construction in favor of or against Indemnitor or Lender.

 

19.           Time of the Essence.  Time shall be of the essence in the performance of all obligations of Indemnitor under this Agreement and every other Loan Document.

 

20.           Legal Construction.

 

(a)           All terms contained herein shall be construed, whenever the context of this agreement so requires, so that the singular number shall include the plural, and the plural the singular, and the use of any gender shall include all genders.

 

(b)           The terms “include” and “including” as used in this Agreement shall be construed as if followed by the phrase “without limitation”.

 

(c)           Any provision of this Agreement permitting the recovery of attorneys’ fees and costs shall be deemed to include such fees and costs incurred in all appellate proceedings.

 

21.           Unimpaired Liability.  The liability of Indemnitor under this Agreement shall in no way be limited or impaired by, and subject to the proviso in Section 23(b) of this Agreement, Indemnitor hereby consents to and agrees to be bound by, any amendment or modification of the provisions of the Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Document.  In addition, the liability of Indemnitor under this Agreement shall in no way be limited or impaired by (i) any extensions of time for performance required by the Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any of the other Loan Documents, (ii) any sale or transfer of all or part of the Premises, (iii) any exculpatory provision in the Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage, or any

 

16



 

other Loan Document limiting Lender Parties’ recourse to the Premises or to any other security for the Loan, or limiting Lender Parties’ rights to a deficiency judgment against Borrower or Indemnitor, (iv) the accuracy or inaccuracy of the representations and warranties made by any Indemnitor or Borrower under the this Agreement, the Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Document, (v) the release of Indemnitor or any other person or party from performance or observance of any of the agreements, covenants, terms or condition contained in any other Loan Document by operation of law, Lender’s voluntary act, or otherwise, (vi) the release or substitution in whole or in part of any security for the Loan, or (vii) Lender’s failure to record the Mortgage or file any UCC financing statements (or Lender’s improper recording or filing of any thereof) or to otherwise perfect, protect, secure or insure any security interest or lien given as security for the Loan; and, in any such case, whether with or without notice to Indemnitor and with or without consideration.  Any one or more parties liable upon or in respect of this Agreement may be released without affecting the liability of any Indemnitor not so released.

 

22.           Availability of Other Remedies.  It is understood and agreed by Indemnitor that:  any rights and remedies Lender Parties may have under this Agreement, as well as any duties and obligations of Indemnitor under this Agreement, are each in addition to and independent of and shall not in any manner whatsoever supersede, replace, diminish, toll or abrogate, or be superseded, replaced, diminished, tolled or abrogated by any (A) rights and remedies Lender Parties may at any time have under this or any other documents or agreements or insurance policies, or as may be generally available at law or in equity, including, but not limited to, the right to contribution which Lender Parties may have against Indemnitor, or any other person or party, under any applicable Environmental Law, including but not limited to CERCLA and SARA, as amended from time to time, or any other applicable federal, State or local laws, rules or regulations, or (B) any duties and obligations of any one or more of Indemnitor under this or any other documents or agreements or insurance policies, or as may be generally imposed by law or in equity.

 

23.           Bankruptcy.

 

(a)           The obligations of Indemnitor hereunder shall remain in full force and effect without regard to, and shall not be affected or impaired by any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, composition, adjustment, dissolution, liquidation or other like proceeding relating to Borrower, Indemnitor, any other guarantor (which term shall include any other party at any time directly or contingently liable for any of Borrower’s obligations under the Loan Documents) or any affiliate of Borrower or any action taken with respect to this Agreement by any trustee or receiver, or by any court, in any such proceeding, whether or not Indemnitor shall have had notice or knowledge of any of the foregoing.

 

(b)           Notwithstanding any modification, discharge or extension of the maturity date of the Loan, or any amendment, modification, stay or cure of Lender’s rights under the Loan Agreement, the Note, Mortgage or any other Loan Document which may occur in any bankruptcy or reorganization case or proceeding affecting Borrower, whether permanent or temporary, and whether or not assented to by Lender, Indemnitor hereby agrees that Indemnitor shall be obligated hereunder to pay the amounts due hereunder in accordance with the terms of this Agreement as in effect on the date hereof; provided that no such amendment or modification

 

17



 

of any provisions affecting the obligations and liabilities for which Indemnitor may be required to indemnify hereunder shall be binding on Indemnitor unless Indemnitor has consented to such amendment or modification.

 

(c)           Indemnitor agrees that to the extent that Borrower makes a payment or payments to Lender with respect to any claim indemnified against Indemnitor herein, which payment or payments or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set side or required, for any of the foregoing reasons or for any other reasons, to be repaid or paid over to a custodian, trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy act, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then to the extent of such payment or repayment, the obligation or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continue in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made and Indemnitor shall be primarily liable for this obligation.

 

24.           Subrogation Waiver/Subordination.

 

(a)           Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in the other Loan Documents or this Agreement, Indemnitor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives until all obligations under the Loan Documents have been paid and performed in full and all applicable preference periods and fraudulent transfer periods have expired, (i) any and all rights of subrogation (whether arising under contract, 11 U.S.C. §509 or otherwise), to the claims, whether existing now or arising hereafter, Lender may have against Borrower, and (ii) any and all rights of reimbursement, contribution or indemnity against Borrower or any future guarantors of any obligations under the Loan Documents) which may have heretofore arisen or may hereafter arise in connection with any guaranty or pledge or grant of any lien or security interest made in connection with any obligations under the Loan Documents.  Indemnitor hereby acknowledges that the waiver contained in the preceding sentence (the “Subrogation Waiver”) is given as an inducement to Lender to enter into the Loan Documents and, in consideration of Lender’s willingness to enter into the Loan Documents, Indemnitor agrees not to amend or modify in any way the Subrogation Waiver without Lender’s prior written consent.  If any amount shall be paid to Indemnitor on account of any claim set forth at any time when all of the obligations under the Loan Documents shall not have been paid or performed in full, such amount shall be held in trust by Indemnitor for Lender’s benefit, shall be segregated from the other funds of Indemnitor and shall forthwith be paid over to Lender to be applied in whole or in part by Lender against such obligations, whether matured or unmatured in accordance with Section 2.7(c) of the Loan Agreement.  Nothing contained herein is intended or shall be construed to give to Indemnitor any rights of subrogation or right to participate in any way in Lender’s rights, title or interest in the Loan Documents, notwithstanding any payments made by Indemnitor under this Agreement, all such rights of subrogation and participation being hereby expressly waived and released until all obligations under the Loan Documents have been paid and performed in full and all applicable preference periods and fraudulent transfer periods have expired.

 

(b)           In the event that Indemnitor shall advance or become obligated to pay any sums with respect to any obligation hereby guaranteed or in the event that for any reason whatsoever Borrower or any subsequent owner of the collateral securing the Loan is now, or shall hereafter become, indebted to Indemnitor, Indemnitor agrees that the amount of such sums

 

18



 

and of such indebtedness together with all interest thereon, shall at all times be subordinate as to the lien, time of payment and in all other respects, to all sums, including principal, interest and other amounts, at any time owing to Lender under any of the Loan Documents and that Indemnitor shall not be entitled to enforce or receive payment thereof until all such sums owing to Lender have been paid.  Nothing herein contained is intended or shall be construed to give to Indemnitor any right to participate in any way in the right, title or interest of Lender in or to the collateral securing the Loan, notwithstanding any payments made by Indemnitor under this Agreement, all such rights of participation being hereby expressly waived and released.

 

25.           No Third Party Beneficiary.  The terms of this Agreement are for the sole and exclusive protection and use of the Lender Parties.  Except as provided herein, no party shall be a third-party beneficiary hereunder, and no provision hereof shall operate or inure to the use and benefit of any third-party.

 

26.           Indemnitor’s Subordination.  From and after the date that any claim hereunder shall have been made by any of the Lender Parties, and continuing until any such claim shall have been paid in full or there has been a final determination (which shall mean a non appealable determination, or where any right of appeal exists, it has been allowed to lapse) that such claim is not valid, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, Indemnitor hereby subordinates to Lender Parties’ rights under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, any claim or other rights which Indemnitor may now have or hereafter acquire against Borrower or any guarantor of all or any of the Loan that arise from the existence or performance of Indemnitor’s obligations under this Agreement (all such claims and rights are referred to as Indemnitor’s “Conditional Rights”), including, without limitation, any right of subrogation, reimbursement, contribution, or indemnification, and any right to participate in any claim or remedy of Lender Parties against Borrower or any collateral which Lender Parties now have or hereafter acquire, whether or not such claim, remedy or right of Indemnitor arises by contract or in equity or under law, by virtue of any payment made by Indemnitor hereunder, including without limitation, the right to take or receive from Indemnitor, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by setoff or in any other manner, payment or security on account of such claim or other rights.  If, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, any amount shall be paid to Indemnitor hereunder on account of any such Indemnitor’s Conditional Rights and either (i) such amount is paid to such Indemnitor at any time when the Loan shall not have been paid or performed in full, or (ii) regardless of when such amount is paid to such Indemnitor, any payment made by Indemnitor to Lender is at any time determined to be a preference or a Preferential Payment (hereinafter defined) under the terms of any bankruptcy or insolvency laws, rules, regulations, orders or decrees, then such amount paid to Indemnitor shall be held in trust for the benefit of Lender and shall forthwith be paid to Lender to be credited and applied upon the Loan, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with Section 2.7(c) of the Loan Agreement.  As used herein, the term “Preferential Payment” shall mean any payment all or any part of which is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid by Lender or paid over to a trustee, receiver or any other entity, whether pursuant to any bankruptcy or fraudulent transfer act or other similar act or law.

 

27.           Subrogation. Indemnitor shall take any and all reasonable actions, including institution of legal action against third parties, necessary or appropriate to obtain reimbursement, payment or compensation from such persons responsible for the presence of any Hazardous

 

19



 

Substances at, in, on, under or near the Premises, or for which it might otherwise obligated by law to bear the cost.  Lender Parties shall be and hereby are subrogated to all of Indemnitor’s rights now or hereafter in such claims.

 

28.           Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, which together shall constitute one and the same original agreement.
