ARTICLE V
INTEREST

Section 5.1             Interest Rate.

(a)      Interest shall accrue on the Loan at the Applicable Rate.  Subject to the provisions hereinafter set forth, the Applicable Rate shall be the Adjusted LIBOR Rate.

(b)      Interest in arrears at the Applicable Rate shall be payable on each Payment Date.

(c)      As long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower may elect from time to time (each, a “LIBOR Rate Election”), but no more frequently than once in any calendar month, to have the Adjusted LIBOR Rate apply to any portion of the principal amount of the Loan (including any disbursement of Loan proceeds about to be made) by giving Lender irrevocable written notice of such election designating the Interest Period for which such LIBOR Rate Election is to apply.  Such written notice shall be given to Lender at its New York office by no later than 11:00 A.M. New York time at least three (3) LIBOR Business Days prior to the date on which the applicable Interest Period will commence.  If a LIBOR Rate Election is then in effect with respect to any portion of the Loan, then no Interest Period for such portion (or any part thereof) of the Loan may be designated which commences prior to the last day of the then current and applicable Interest Period for such portion of the Loan.  In no event may Borrower elect an Interest Period which extends beyond the Maturity Date.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, (i) the LIBOR Rate Election may be exercised from time to time only as to a minimum amount of $53,000,000, and (ii) in no event shall more than seven (7) Interest Periods be in effect at any time for the Loan.  If Borrower does not select an Interest Period at least three (3) LIBOR Business Days prior to the last day of the applicable Interest Period, then the Applicable Rate for such amount following the end of such Interest Period shall be based on a thirty (30) day Interest Period.

(d)      All payments (whether of principal or interest) shall be deemed credited to Borrower’s account only if received by 3:00 p.m. (New York time) on a Business Day; otherwise, such payment shall be deemed received on the next Business Day.

(e)      If Lender determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon Borrower, absent manifest error) (i) that dollar deposits in respect of any portion of the Loan bearing interest at the Adjusted LIBOR Rate are not generally available at such time in the London Interbank market, (ii) that the rate at which such deposits are being offered will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to Lender of maintaining a LIBOR Rate on such portion of the Loan or of funding the same due to circumstances affecting the London

28




 

interbank market generally, (iii) that reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining a LIBOR Rate or (iv) that an Adjusted LIBOR Rate would be in excess of the maximum interest rate which Borrower may by law pay, then, in any such event, Lender shall so notify Borrower and all portions of the Loan bearing interest at the Adjusted LIBOR Rate that are so affected shall, as of the date of such notification with respect to an event described in clauses (ii) or (iv) above, or as of the expiration of the Applicable Rate Interest Period with respect to an event described in clauses (i) or (iii) above, bear interest at the Adjusted Prime Rate until such time as the situations described above are no longer in effect.

(f)       If the introduction of (or any change in) any Law, regulation or treaty, or in the interpretation thereof by any Governmental Authority charged with the administration or interpretation thereof, shall make it unlawful for Lender to maintain the Applicable Rate at an Adjusted LIBOR Rate with respect to the Loan or any portion thereof, or to fund the Loan or any portion thereof in dollars in the London interbank market, then (i) Lender shall notify Borrower that Lender is no longer able to maintain the Applicable Rate at an Adjusted LIBOR Rate, (ii) the Applicable Rate shall automatically be converted to the Adjusted Prime Rate and (iii) Borrower shall pay to Lender the amount of Breakage Costs (if any) incurred by Lender in connection with such conversion.  Lender shall use reasonable efforts to avoid incurring any Breakage Costs but shall have no liability if any Breakage Costs are incurred.  Thereafter, interest shall accrue on the Loan or the applicable portion thereof at the Adjusted Prime Rate until such time as the situation described herein is no longer in effect.

(g)      Interest on the outstanding principal balance of the Loan shall be calculated by multiplying (i) the actual number of days elapsed in the period for which the calculation is being made by (ii) a daily rate based on a three hundred sixty (360) day year by (iii) the outstanding principal balance of the Loan.

(h)      Borrower shall indemnify Lender and hold Lender harmless from any loss or expense which Lender sustains or incurs as a consequence of (i) any default by Borrower in payment of the principal of or interest on any portion of the Loan bearing interest at an Adjusted LIBOR Rate, including, without limitation, any such loss or expense arising from interest or fees payable by Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to maintain such portion of the Loan at an Adjusted LIBOR Rate, (ii) any prepayment (whether voluntary or mandatory) of any portion of the Loan bearing interest at an Adjusted LIBOR Rate on a day that (A) is not the Payment Date immediately following the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto or (B) is the Payment Date immediately following the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto if Borrower did not give the prior written notice of such prepayment required pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including, without limitation, such loss or expense arising from interest or fees payable by Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to maintain such portion of the Loan at an Adjusted LIBOR Rate and (iii) the conversion (for any reason whatsoever, whether voluntary or involuntary) of the Applicable Rate from an Adjusted LIBOR Rate to the Adjusted Prime Rate with respect to any portion of the Loan on a date other than the Payment Date immediately following the last day of an Interest Period, including, without limitation, such loss or expenses arising from interest or fees payable by Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to maintain such portion of the Loan at an Adjusted LIBOR Rate (the amounts referred to in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) are herein referred to collectively as the “Breakage Costs”).  This provision shall survive payment

29




 

of the Note in full and the satisfaction of all other obligations of Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan  Documents.  Lender shall make reasonable efforts to avoid incurring any Breakage Costs in connection with the application of the Release Prices in reduction of the Debt.

(i)       The outstanding principal balance of the Loan shall bear interest at the Default Rate at any time during which an Event of Default exists.

(i)            any change after the date hereof in any Law, regulation or treaty, or in the interpretation or administration thereof, or by any domestic or foreign court, (x) changing the basis of taxation of payments under this Agreement to Lender (other than taxes imposed on all or any portion of the overall net income or receipts of Lender), (y) imposing, modifying or applying any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds for loans by Lender or (z) imposing on Lender, or the London interbank market generally, any other condition affecting the Loan, provided that the result of the foregoing is to increase the cost to Lender of maintaining the Loan or any portion thereof or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable from Borrower by Lender under the Loan Documents; or

(ii)           the maintenance by Lender of reserves in accordance with reserve requirements promulgated by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System of the United States with respect to “Eurocurrency Liabilities” of a similar term to that of the Loan (without duplication for reserves already accounted for in the calculation of a LIBOR Rate pursuant to the terms hereof).

(b)      If the application of any Law, rule, regulation or guideline adopted or arising out of the report of the Basle Committee on Banking Regulations and Supervisory Practices entitled “International Convergence of Capital Measurement and Capital Standards”, or the adoption after the date hereof of any other Law, rule, regulation or guideline regarding capital adequacy, or any change after the date hereof in any of the foregoing, or in the interpretation or administration thereof by any domestic or foreign Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency, has the effect of reducing the rate of return on Lender’s capital to a level below that which Lender would have achieved but for such application, adoption, change or compliance

30




 

(taking into consideration the policies of Lender with respect to capital adequacy), then, from time to time Borrower shall pay to Lender such additional amounts as will compensate Lender for such reduction with respect to any portion of the Loan outstanding.

(c)      Any amount payable by Borrower under subsection (a) or subsection (b) of this Section 6.1 shall be paid within five (5) days of receipt by Borrower of a certificate signed by an authorized officer of Lender setting forth the amount due and the basis for the determination of such amount, which statement shall be conclusive and binding upon Borrower, absent manifest error.

ARTICLE VII

CONSTRUCTION BUDGET; RESERVES; OPERATING BUDGET

Section 11.1           Construction Budget.

Disbursements of the Loan shall be governed by the Construction Budget.  The Construction Budget shall include, in addition to the Budget Line Items described in Section 11.2 below, the Contingency Reserve and the Interest Reserve.  Borrower shall not modify  the Construction Budget without first obtaining Lender’s prior written consent thereto.  Borrower may reallocate funds among Budget Line Items in the Construction Budget as are reasonably necessary for the Construction of the Improvements in Borrower’s judgment, provided that (a) funds may only be moved to or from any particular Budget Line Item once per Budget Line Item without Lender’s prior consent and (b) any individual Budget Line Item shall not be reduced by more than five percent (5%).  Borrower shall not otherwise modify the Construction Budget without first obtaining Lender’s prior written consent thereto

Section 11.2           Budget Line Items.

(a)      The Construction Budget shall include as line items (“Budget Line Items”) all Hard Costs and Soft Costs.  All Loan proceeds disbursed by Lender shall be used only for the Budget Line Items for which such proceeds were disbursed.

(b)      Lender shall not be obligated to disburse any amount for any category of costs set forth as a Budget Line Item which is greater than the amount set forth for such category in the applicable Budget Line Item.  Borrower shall pay as they become due all amounts set forth in the Construction Budget with respect to costs to be paid for by Borrower.  If any Budget Line Item shall be (i) completed without the expenditure of all amounts in the Construction Budget allocated to such Budget Line Item or (ii) with regard to unfinished Budget Line Items, to the extent Borrower can demonstrate to the satisfaction of Lender that savings in the particular Budget Line Item exist that do not result from either the Interest Reserve or the Contingency Reserve and such potential savings do not result in an increase to

39




 

the Construction Budget, then Borrower may reallocate savings, provided that: (x) Borrower shall have submitted to Lender a revised Construction Budget reflecting the reallocation of Budget Line Items; and (y) no Budget Line Item for Hard Costs shall be reallocated to pay any Budget Line Item for Soft Costs until Borrower has paid all Hard Costs and completed the Improvements.

Section 11.3           Contingency Reserve.

The Construction Budget shall contain a Budget Line Item for additional, unforeseen costs and expenses (the “Contingency Reserve”).  Borrower may from time to time request that Lender permit the reallocation of portions of the Contingency Reserve to pay costs of the Project for which amounts remaining in any Budget Line Item are insufficient.  Borrower agrees that the decision with respect to utilizing portions of the Contingency Reserve in order to keep the Loan “In Balance” shall be made by Lender in its reasonable discretion, and that Lender may require Borrower to make a Deficiency Deposit even if funds remain in the Contingency Reserve.   Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender hereby agrees that a proportion of the Contingency Reserve equal to the completed percentage of the Project, up to 50% of sums then in the Contingency Reserve (and not utilized, reallocated or used to keep the Loan In Balance), may be reallocated to pay costs of the Project without Lender’s consent, provided that Borrower delivers to Lender a certificate from the Architect confirming the completed percentage of the Project prior to any such reallocation.

Section 11.4           Interest Reserve.

The Construction Budget shall contain a Budget Line Item for payment of interest due in respect of the Loan (the “Interest Reserve”).  Borrower hereby authorizes Lender from time to time, for the mutual convenience of Lender and Borrower, to disburse Loan proceeds to pay all accrued interest on the Note, to the extent then due and payable, regardless of whether Borrower shall have specifically requested disbursement of such amount.  Any such disbursement, if made, shall be added to the outstanding principal balance of the Note and shall, when disbursed, bear interest at the Applicable Rate.  The authorization hereby granted, however, shall not obligate Lender to make disbursements of the Loan for interest payments, unless Borrower requests, and qualifies for, disbursement of the portion of the Construction Budget allocated therefor.

Section 11.5           Tax and Insurance Reserve.

The Construction Budget shall contain Budget Line Items for payment of real estate taxes and Insurance Premiums (the “Tax and Insurance Reserve”).  Borrower hereby authorizes Lender from time to time, for the mutual convenience of Lender and Borrower, to disburse Loan proceeds to pay real estate taxes and Insurance Premiums, to the extent then due and payable, regardless of whether Borrower shall have specifically requested disbursement of such amount.  Any such disbursement, if made, shall be added to the outstanding principal balance of the Note and shall, when disbursed, bear interest at the Applicable Rate.  The authorization hereby granted, however, shall not obligate Lender to make disbursements of the Loan for real estate taxes and Insurance Premiums, unless Borrower requests, and qualifies for, disbursement of the portion of the Construction Budget allocated therefor.

ARTICLE XII
SUFFICIENCY OF LOAN

Section 12.1           Loan In Balance.

Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, the Loan shall at all times be “In Balance”, on a Budget Line Item basis and in the aggregate.  A Budget Line Item shall be deemed to be “In Balance” only if Lender, in its reasonable discretion, determines that the amount of such Budget Line Item is sufficient for its intended purpose.  The Loan shall be deemed to be “In Balance” in the aggregate only when the total of the undisbursed portion of the Loan plus the undisbursed balance of Available Contract Deposits, less the Contingency Reserve (such total being the “Available Funds”), equals or exceeds the aggregate of: (i) the costs required to complete the Construction in accordance with the Plans and Specifications and the Construction Budget; (ii) the amounts to be paid as retainages to persons who have supplied labor or materials to the Project; (iii) the amount required to pay interest on the Loan through the Maturity Date; (iv) amounts required to be refunded or otherwise paid to any contract vendee under a Contract of Sale; and (v) all other Hard Costs and Soft Costs not yet paid for in connection with the Project, as such costs and amounts described in clauses (i) through (v) above may be estimated and/or approved in writing by Lender from time to time (such costs and amounts in (i) through (v) being the “Outstanding Loan Costs”).  If, in Lender’s reasonable determination, either any Budget Line Item is insufficient for such purpose or the aggregate amount of the Available Funds is less than Outstanding Loan Costs, then Borrower shall, within fifteen (15) days after written request by Lender, (with simultaneous copies of such written request sent to Guarantors), deposit the deficiency with Lender (a Deficiency Deposit”).  The Deficiency Deposit shall first be exhausted before any further disbursement of the applicable Loan proceeds shall be made.  Any Deficiency Deposit remaining after a particular Budget Line Item or the Loan, as the case may be, is back “In Balance” shall be returned to Borrower.  Lender shall not be obligated to make any Loan disbursements if and for as long as the Loan is not “In Balance”.    Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Lender will forbear from requiring collection of any Deficiency Deposit until the earlier of (a) February 11, 2007 or (b) the date the Public Report is filed and one or more Contract Deposits become Available Contract Deposits.

(c)      Plans and Specifications.  Borrower has submitted a true and complete copy of the Existing Plans and Specifications to Lender and Lender has approved the Plans and Specifications.   A description of the Plans and Specifications approved by Lender is attached here to as Exhibit E.  Lender shall, without additional cost or expense, have the use of the Plans and Specifications upon the occurrence beyond any applicable notice and cure period of an Event of Default under the Loan Documents.  Upon notice to Borrower, Lender, Lender’s Consultant and their respective agents and employees, shall have the right of entry and access to the entire Project in connection with their review of the Plans and Specifications or any other aspect of the Project.

(d)      Construction of the Improvements.  Borrower shall commence Construction on or before the Construction Commencement Date.  Borrower shall be deemed to have commenced Construction upon Borrower’s commencement of the excavation of the foundation of the Improvements and the performance of continuous and substantial site development work.  Borrower shall perform the Construction in a good and workmanlike manner with materials of high quality and in substantial accordance with the Plans and Specifications.  Borrower shall prosecute the Construction with due diligence and continuity in accordance with the Construction Schedule and shall substantially complete the Construction before the Completion Date.  All work performed in connection with the Property shall comply with all Laws and all Governmental Approvals.

(g)      Liens.  Borrower will not suffer or permit any construction lien claims to be filed or otherwise asserted against the Project or any funds due to the General Contractor, and will promptly discharge the same in case of the filing of any claims for lien or proceedings for the enforcement thereof, provided, however, that Borrower may contest in good faith and with reasonable diligence the validity of any such lien or claim, provided that Borrower posts a statutory lien bond which removes such lien from title to the Project within thirty (30) days after Borrower’s receipt of written notice thereof.  Lender will not be required to make any further disbursements of the proceeds of the Loan until any construction lien claims have been removed (by payment or by posting a bond) and Lender may, at its option, restrict disbursements to reserve sufficient sums to pay 150% of the lien.  If Borrower shall fail timely to (i) discharge any such lien or (ii) post a statutory lien bond, Lender may, at its election (but shall not be required to), procure the release and discharge of such lien and any judgment or decree thereon and, further, may in its sole discretion, settle or compromise the same, or may furnish such security or indemnity as Title Insurer shall require to insure Lender against the enforcement thereof, and any amounts so expended by Lender shall be added to the Debt.  In settling, compromising or discharging any claims for lien, Lender shall not be required to inquire into the validity or amount of any such claim.

(j)       Certificate of Occupancy.  Borrower shall obtain a Certificate of Occupancy for all of the Units by no later than the third (3rd) anniversary of the Effective Date.

(k)      [Intentionally Deleted].

(l)       Payment of Taxes.  Borrower shall pay all real estate taxes and assessments and charges of every kind upon the Project before the same become delinquent, provided, however, that Borrower may pay such tax under protest or to otherwise contest any such tax or assessment, but only if (i) such contest has the effect of preventing the collection of such taxes so contested and also of preventing the sale or forfeiture of the Project or any part thereof or any interest therein, (ii) Borrower has notified Lender of Borrower’s intent to contest such taxes, and (iii) Borrower has deposited security for the payment of contested taxes in form and amount satisfactory to Lender.  If Borrower fails to commence such contest or, having commenced to contest the same, thereafter fails to prosecute such contest in good faith or with due diligence, or, upon adverse conclusion of any such contest, shall fail to pay such tax, assessment or charge, Lender may, at its election (but shall not be required to), pay and discharge any such tax, assessment or charge, and any interest or penalty thereon, and any amounts so expended in excess of any security posted by Borrower shall be added to the Debt.  Borrower shall furnish Lender with evidence that taxes are paid at least ten (10) days prior to the last date for payment of such taxes and before imposition of any penalty or accrual of interest.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender shall not assert a default for failure to pay real estate taxes, provided that (x) there exists no Event of Default and (y) adequate funds for the payment of real estate taxes exist in the Tax Escrow Fund.

(m)     Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund.  From and after substantial completion of the Improvements, in the event the unadvanced portion of the Loan is insufficient for payment of real estate taxes and Insurance Premiums, then upon request by Lender Borrower shall pay to Lender on each Payment Date (i) one-twelfth (1/12) of an amount which would be sufficient to pay the real estate taxes payable, or estimated by Lender to be payable, during the ensuing twelve (12) months (the “Tax Escrow Fund”) and (ii) one-twelfth (1/12) of the Insurance Premiums payable, or estimated by Lender to be payable, during the ensuring twelve months (the “Insurance Escrow Fund”, and, together with the Tax Escrow Fund, the “Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund”).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender shall advance such amounts from the undisbursed balance of the Tax and Insurance Reserve in accordance

54




 

with the provisions of Section 11.5 hereof, provided that (i) no Event of Default exists, (ii) no dispute exists in respect of amounts to be disbursed for the payment of real estate taxes or Insurance Premiums and (iii) the line items in respect of real estate taxes and Insurance Premiums set forth in the Construction Budget are in balance.  The Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund, the Servicing Fees and the monthly installments of principal and interest payable under the Note shall be added together and shall be paid as an aggregate sum by Borrower to Lender.  Borrower hereby pledges to Lender any and all monies now or hereafter deposited in the Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund as additional security for the payment of the Debt.  Lender will apply (i) the Insurance Escrow Fund to insurance premiums required to be paid by Borrower pursuant to Section 16.2 hereof and (ii) the Tax Escrow Fund to real estate taxes required to be paid by Borrower under Section 16.1(l) hereof.  If at any time the Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund is not sufficient to pay real estate taxes or insurance premiums, Borrower shall  pay to Lender, within ten (10) days after written demand, Lender’s estimate of the amount required to remedy the deficiency.  Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender may apply any sums then comprising the Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund to the payment of the Debt in such order of priority as Lender elects in its sole discretion.  Until expended or applied as above provided, any amounts in the Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund shall constitute additional security for the Debt.  To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund shall not constitute a trust fund and may be commingled with other monies held by Lender.  No earnings or interest on the Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund shall be payable to Borrower.

(n)      [Intentionally Deleted].

(p)      Personal Property.  Except as hereinafter provided, Borrower shall keep all Personal Property incorporated in the Project free of all liens, encumbrances and security interests, other than the liens, encumbrances and security interests in favor of Lender created by the Loan Documents.  Prior to completion of the Improvements, Borrower shall provide to Lender, when requested but no more frequently than quarterly, an inventory of the Personal Property and shall execute such financing statements as may be reasonably required by Lender to perfect Lender’s security interest on the same.  No Personal Property shall be purchased or installed in the Improvements by Borrower under any security agreement, conditional sales contract or other agreement wherein the seller reserves a security interest in, or the right to remove or to repossess, such items or to consider them personal property after their incorporation into the Improvements, except for capital leases approved by Lender.

(q)      Leases.  Without the prior written consent of Lender, which consent shall be deemed given by Lender if Lender fails to object within ten (10) Business Days of a written request by Borrower for such consent and receipt by Lender of all information reasonably necessary for Lender to make an informed decision, Borrower shall not (i) enter into any lease of all or any portion of the Project, (ii) materially modify any lease of any portion of the Project or (iii) accept any rental payment in advance of one month of its due date.  Borrower shall provide Lender with a copy of the fully executed original of all leases promptly

55




 

following their execution.  Borrower shall deposit all security deposits under leases in a segregated account with a financial institution reasonably acceptable to Lender.  At Lender’s request, Borrower shall cause tenants to execute subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreements reasonably satisfactory to Lender.  Lender reserves the right to subordinate the lien of the Mortgage to any lease.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Lender acknowledges that (x) the Borrower and Exclusive Resorts have the right to modify the ER Purchase Agreement and individual purchase agreements entered into pursuant thereto prior to the initial execution of the individual purchase agreements without Lender consent provided that such changes are not inconsistent with the First Amendment to the ER Purchase Agreement between the parties dated June __, 2006, that the purchase prices identified therein are not modified and further provided that this section shall not be deemed to waive Lender’s consent rights to any amendment negotiated after the individual agreements are signed, and (y) Borrower may make modifications or amendments to the aforementioned agreements without Lender consent provided that such amendments or modifications will solely affect portions of the Property that are to be released by Lender pursuant to this Agreement from and after the effective date of such release.

(s)      Appraisals.  Lender may obtain a new or updated Appraisal of the Project from time to time.  Borrower shall cooperate with Lender in this regard.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender shall not obtain a new or updated Appraisal more than once in any twelve (12) month period, unless either (i) an Event of Default exists or (ii) such Appraisal is then required under the terms of this Agreement.  Borrower shall reimburse Lender upon demand for the cost of any Appraisal obtained by Lender in accordance with the terms of this Section 16.1(s).

(xii)          upon thirty (30) days’ written notice from Lender, such other reasonable insurance, in such reasonable amounts, as Lender from time to time may reasonably request against such other insurable hazards which at the time are commonly insured against for property similar to the Project located in or around Kapalua, Hawaii.

(b)      All insurance provided for in Section 16.2(a) hereof shall be obtained under valid and enforceable policies (collectively, the “Policies” or in the singular, the “Policy”), and shall be subject to the approval of Lender as to insurance companies, amounts, deductibles, loss payees and insureds.  The Policies shall be issued by financially sound and responsible insurance companies authorized to do business in the State and having a claims paying ability rating of “A” or better by S&P or “A2” or better by Moody’s.  The Policies described in Section 16.2(a) (other than those strictly limited to liability protection) shall designate Lender as loss payee.  Not less than ten (10) days prior to the expiration dates of the Policies theretofore furnished to Lender, certificates of insurance evidencing the renewal of the Policies, accompanied by evidence satisfactory to Lender of payment of the premiums thereunder (the “Insurance Premiums”), shall be delivered by Borrower to Lender.

(c)      Any blanket insurance Policy shall specifically allocate to the Project the amount of coverage from time to time required hereunder and shall otherwise provide the same protection as would a separate Policy insuring only the Project in compliance with the provisions of Section 16.2(a) hereof.

(d)      All Policies of insurance provided for by Section 16.2(a) hereof, except for the Policy referred to in Section 16.2(a)(v) hereof, shall name Borrower as the insured and Lender as the additional insured, as its interests may appear, and in the case of property damage, boiler and machinery, flood and earthquake insurance, shall contain a so-called New York standard non-contributing mortgagee clause (or its equivalent) in favor of Lender providing that the loss thereunder shall be payable to Lender.

(e)      All Policies of insurance provided for in Section 16.2(a) hereof shall contain clauses or endorsements to the effect that:

(i)            no act or negligence of Borrower, or anyone acting for Borrower, or of any tenant or other occupant of the Project, or failure to comply with the provisions of any Policy, which might otherwise result in a forfeiture of the insurance or any part thereof, shall in any way affect the validity or enforceability of the insurance insofar as Lender is concerned;

(ii)           the Policy shall not be materially changed (other than to increase the coverage provided thereby) or canceled without at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Lender and any other party named therein as an additional insured;

(iii)          the issuers thereof shall give written notice to Lender if the Policy has not been renewed fifteen (15) days prior to its expiration; and

(iv)          Lender shall not be liable for any Insurance Premiums thereon or subject to any assessments thereunder.

60




 

(f)       If at any time Lender is not in receipt of written evidence that all insurance required hereunder is in full force and effect, Lender shall have the right, without notice to Borrower, to take such action as Lender deems necessary to protect its interest in the Project, including, without limitation, the obtaining of such insurance coverage as Lender in its sole discretion deems appropriate.  All Insurance Premiums incurred by Lender in connection with such action or in obtaining such insurance and keeping it in effect shall be paid by Borrower to Lender upon demand and, until paid, shall be secured by the Mortgage and shall bear interest at the Default Rate.

(g)      The Borrower may obtain the insurance required hereunder from any insurance company of the Borrower’s choice that is acceptable to the Lender, which acceptance shall not be unreasonably withheld.  The Lender’s nonacceptance of an insurer shall not be deemed unreasonable if it is based upon reasonable standards, uniformly applied, relating to the extent of coverage required and the financial soundness and services of the insurer.  Such standards shall not discriminate against any particular insurer nor shall such standards call for rejection of an insurance contract because the contract contains coverage in addition to that required under this Agreement.

(l)       Neither Borrower nor any Related Party will seek the dissolution, winding up, liquidation, consolidation or merger in whole or in part of Borrower, or the sale of material assets of Borrower.

ARTICLE XXV
SALE OF NOTE AND SECURITIZATION.

Section 25.1           Cooperation.

Borrower acknowledges that Lender may sell the Loan to a party who may pool the Loan with a number of other loans and grant participations therein or issue one or more classes of Mortgage Backed, Pass-Through Certificates or other securities evidencing a beneficial interest in a rated or unrated public offering or private placement (such sale and/or securitization, a “Securitization”; the securities evidencing such Securitization the “Securities”) or syndicate the Loan to one or more third parties.  In connection therewith, Borrower agrees to make available to Lender such financial and other information with respect to the Project, Borrower, Borrower’s members and Guarantor that was provided to Lender in the course of its underwriting and origination of the Loan as well as such financial and other non-confidential information with respect to the Project, Borrower, Borrower’s members and Guarantor as Lender reasonably requests (collectively, the “Provided Information”).  The Provided Information shall be provided by Borrower to Lender at Lender’s cost and expense, provided that Borrower’s attorneys’ costs

76




 

and expenses payable by Lender shall not exceed Five Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($5,000.00).  The Securities and/or the Loan may be rated by one or more of the Rating Agencies.  Lender may share the Provided Information with the investment banking firms, Rating Agencies, accounting firms, law firms and other third-party advisory firms involved with the Loan or the Securities.  The Provided Information may ultimately be incorporated into the offering documents for the Securities or in connection with a syndication and thus such information may be disclosed to various investors.  Lender and all of the aforesaid third-party advisors and professional firms may reasonably rely on the information supplied by, or on behalf of, Borrower.  Lender, at its sole option, may also elect to split the Loan into two or more loans, each secured by liens on the Project, and sell, assign, pledge or otherwise hypothecate one or more of such loans to third parties.  Borrower shall cooperate in all such efforts by executing and delivering all such documents, certificates, instruments and other things reasonably necessary to evidence or confirm Borrower’s obligations hereunder, provided, however, that in no event shall the Debt or Borrower’s obligations hereunder be increased as a result thereof.

Section 25.2           Non-Consolidation Opinion; Independent Director.

If Lender securitizes, sells, participates, syndicates or hypothecates the Loan, Lender may require that (i) Borrower cause its counsel to deliver to Lender, any Rating Agency and such other Persons as Lender deems necessary or appropriate, an update of, or supplement to, the Non-Consolidation Opinion, in form and substance satisfactory to Lender and (ii) Borrower cause Member to appoint an Independent Director to Member.

Section 25.3           Loan Components.

Borrower agrees that in connection with any Securitization or syndication of the Loan, upon Lender’s reasonable request and at Lender’s sole cost and expense (excluding Borrower’s legal counsels’ fees and expenses), Borrower shall deliver one or more new component notes to replace the original Note or modify the original Note to reflect multiple components of the Loan.  The initial new Notes or modified Note shall have the same weighted average coupon as the original Note for the duration of the term of the Note, without regard to any differing amortization or payment schedules or permitted prepayments.  In the event of a prepayment of the Loan, Lender shall be entitled to apply the amount of such prepayment to one or more of the new component notes as Lender in its sole discretion decides, subject to the provisions of the foregoing sentence

Section 25.4           Intentionally Deleted.

Section 25.5           Conversion of Loan and Creation of Subordinate Debt.

Lender shall have the right, at Lender’s sole cost and expense, to convert a portion of the Loan into subordinate financing, including, but not limited to, mezzanine debt, subordinate debt or participations in the Loan (collectively, the “Subordinate Loan”), provided that (i) the aggregate principal amount of the Loan and the Subordinate Loan on the date of such adjustment shall equal the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Loan immediately prior to such adjustment, (ii) the Note evidencing the Loan and the Subordinate Loan shall have the same weighted average coupon as the original Note for the duration of the term of the Note, without

77




 

regard to any different amortization or schedules or any permitted prepayments and (iii) the other terms and provisions of the Loan and the Subordinate Loan shall substantially remain unchanged, except for changes which are customary with respect to subordinate loan financing.  Borrower shall cooperate with all reasonable requests of Lender in connection with any such adjustment of the Loan and shall execute and deliver such documents as shall reasonably be required by Lender at no cost to Borrower in connection therewith provided that Borrower’s attorneys’ costs and expenses payable by Lender shall not exceed Five Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($5,000.00).

Section 25.6           Securitization Indemnification.

(a)      Borrower understands that certain of the Provided Information may be included in disclosure documents in connection with the Securitization, including, without limitation, a prospectus, prospectus supplement or private placement memorandum (each, a “Disclosure Document”) and may also be included in filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or provided or made available to investors or prospective investors in the Securities, the Rating Agencies, and service providers relating to the Securitization.  In the event that the Disclosure Document is required to be revised prior to the sale of all Securities, Borrower will cooperate with the holder of the Note in updating the Disclosure Document by providing all current information necessary to keep the Disclosure Document accurate and complete in all material respects.

(b)      Borrower agrees to provide in connection with each of (i) a preliminary and a private placement memorandum or (ii) a preliminary and final prospectus or prospectus supplement, as applicable, an indemnification certificate (A) certifying that Borrower has carefully examined such memorandum or prospectus, as applicable, including without limitation, the sections entitled “Special Considerations,” “Description of the Mortgages,” “Description of the Mortgage Loans and Mortgaged Property,” “The Manager,” “The Borrower” and “Certain Legal Aspects of the Mortgage Loan,” and such sections (and any other sections reasonably requested) do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements made, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, (B) indemnifying Lender (and for purposes of this Section 25.6(b), Lender hereunder shall include its officers, employees and directors), the Affiliate of Lehman Brothers Inc. (“Lehman”) that has filed the registration statement relating to the securitization (the “Registration Statement”), each of its directors, each of its officers who have signed the Registration Statement and each Person who controls the Affiliate within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (collectively, the “Lehman Group”), and Lehman, each of its directors and each Person who controls Lehman within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act (collectively, the “Underwriter Group”) for any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (collectively, the “Liabilities”) to which Lender, the Lehman Group or the Underwriter Group may become subject insofar as the Liabilities arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in such sections or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated in such sections or necessary in order to make the statements in such sections or in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading and (C) agreeing to reimburse Lender, the Lehman Group and the Underwriter Group for any

78




 

legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by Lender and Lehman in connection with investigating or defending the Liabilities; provided, however, that Borrower will be liable in any such case under clauses (B) or (C) above only to the extent that any such loss claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any such untrue statement or omission made therein in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to Lender by or on behalf of Borrower in connection with the preparation of the memorandum or prospectus or in connection with the underwriting of the Debt, including, without limitation, financial statements of Borrower, operating statements, rent rolls, environmental site assessment reports and property condition reports with respect to the Project.  This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which Borrower may otherwise have.  Moreover, the indemnification provided for in Clauses (B) and (C) above shall be effective whether or not an indemnification certificate described in (A) above is provided and shall be applicable based on information previously provided by Borrower or its Affiliates if Borrower does not provide the indemnification certificate.

(c)      In connection with filings under the Exchange Act, Borrower agrees to indemnify (i) Lender, the Lehman Group and the Underwriter Group for Liabilities to which Lender, the Lehman Group or the Underwriter Group may become subject insofar as the Liabilities arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state in the Provided Information a material fact required to be stated in the Provided Information in order to make the statements in the Provided Information, in light of the circumstances under which they were made not misleading and (ii) reimburse Lender, the Lehman Group or the Underwriter Group for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by Lender, the Lehman Group or the Underwriter Group in connection with defending or investigating the Liabilities.

(d)      Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 25.6 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 25.6, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof, but the omission to so notify the indemnifying party will not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability which the indemnifying party may have to any indemnified party hereunder except to the extent that failure to notify causes prejudice to the indemnifying party.  In the event that any action is brought against any indemnified party, and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled, jointly with any other indemnifying party, to participate therein and, to the extent that it (or they) may elect by written notice delivered to the indemnified party promptly after receiving the aforesaid notice from such indemnified party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party.  After notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party under this Section 25.6, the indemnifying party shall not be responsible for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided, however, if the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there are any legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to assert such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties.  The indemnifying party shall not be liable for

79




 

the expenses of more than one such separate counsel unless an indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or additional to those available to another indemnified party.

(e)      In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which the indemnity agreements provided for in Sections 25.6(b) or (c) is or are for any reason held to be unenforceable by an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or action in respect thereof) referred to therein which would otherwise be indemnifiable under Sections 25.6(b) or (c), the indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or action in respect thereof); provided, however, that no Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.  In determining the amount of contribution to which the respective parties are entitled, the following factors shall be considered:  (i) Lehman’s and Borrower’s relative knowledge and access to information concerning the matter with respect to which claim was asserted; (ii) the opportunity to correct and prevent any statement or omission; and (iii) any other equitable considerations appropriate in the circumstances.  Lender and Borrower hereby agree that it would not be equitable if the amount of such contribution were determined by pro rata or per capita allocation.

(f)       The liabilities and obligations of both Borrower and Lender under this Section 25.6 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the satisfaction and discharge of the Debt.

Section 25.7           Rating Surveillance.

Borrower will retain the Rating Agencies to provide rating surveillance services on any certificates issued in a Securitization.  Such rating surveillance will be at the expense of Borrower in an amount determined by Lender in its reasonable discretion prior to the occurrence of a Securitization.  Such expense will be paid in monthly installments.
