D.           Borrowers and Guarantor have requested that Lenders modify the Loans and the Current Loan Documents as provided in this Agreement, and Lenders are willing to so modify the Loans and the Current Loan Documents, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.

 

 

 

For good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Borrowers, Guarantor and Lenders agree as follows:

1.          Accuracy of Recitals; Effective Date.  Borrowers, Guarantor and Lenders acknowledge the accuracy of the Recitals set forth above and the parties hereby agree that the Recitals are a part of this Agreement.  Borrowers and Guarantor also acknowledge and agree that the information set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto with respect to each Loan is complete and correct, and that the outstanding principal indebtedness with respect to each Loan, together with all accrued unpaid interest thereon, is due and owing under the Loan Documents, without defense, offset or counterclaim. The modifications of the Current Loan Documents and the obligations of Borrowers, Guarantor and Lenders pursuant to this Agreement will be effective on the date that Lenders determine that the conditions precedent set forth in this Agreement have been satisfied in full (such date, the “Effective Date”).

 

2.   Modification of Current Loan Documents.  The Current Loan Documents are hereby modified as follows:

 

(a)           Guarantor Reporting Requirements.  From and after the Effective Date, Guarantor shall not be required to maintain compliance with the monthly reporting requirement described in Section 2(a)(iv) of the 2013 Loan Modification, and the failure of a Borrower to comply with such monthly reporting requirement will not constitute an Event of Default under the Loan Documents.

 

(b)           Guarantor Financial Covenants.

 

(i)           Minimum Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio.  Lender approves the change in the definition of Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, as reflected in the Guarantor Credit Agreement existing as of the Effective Date, which increases the amount of the mortgage prepayment penalty exclusion from $2,500,000 to $5,000,000.

 

3.   Borrower Representations, Warranties and Covenants.  As additional consideration to and inducement for Lenders to enter into this Agreement, each Borrower represents and warrants to and covenants with Lenders as follows:

 

(a)           Representations and Warranties.  Each and all representations and warranties of each Borrower in the Current Loan Documents are and will continue to be accurate, complete and correct in all material respects (other than any representation or warranty expressly relating to an earlier date).  The representations and warranties in this Agreement are true, complete and correct as of the date set forth above, will continue to be true, complete and correct as of the consummation of the modifications contemplated by this Agreement, and will survive such consummation.

 

(b)   No Defaults.  No Borrower is in default under any of the Current Loan Documents, nor has any event or circumstance occurred that is continuing that, with the giving of notice or the passage of time, or both, would be a default or an event of default by a Borrower under any of the Current Loan Documents.

 

(c)           No Material Changes.  There has been no material adverse change in the financial condition of Guarantor, any Borrower or any other person whose financial statement has been delivered to a Lender in connection with the Loans from the most recent financial statement received by a Lender from Guarantor, any Borrower or such other persons.

 

 

(d)           No Conflicts; No Consents Required.  Neither execution nor delivery of this Agreement nor fulfillment of or compliance with the terms and provisions hereof will conflict with, or result in a breach of the terms or conditions of, or constitute a default under, any agreement or instrument to which any Borrower is a party or by which any Borrower may be bound.  No consents, approvals or authorizations are required for the execution and delivery of this Agreement by any Borrower or for any Borrower’s compliance with its terms and provisions.

 

(e)           Claims and Defenses.  No Borrower has any claims, counterclaims, defenses or set-offs with respect to the Loans or the Loan Documents.  Each Lender and its predecessors in interest have performed all of their obligations under the Loan Documents, and no Borrower has any defenses, offsets, counterclaims, claims or demands of any nature which can be asserted against any Lender or its predecessors in interest for damages or to reduce or eliminate all or any part of the obligations of such Borrower under the Loan Documents.

(h)          Ratification of Current Loan Documents and Collateral.  The Current Loan Documents, as modified by this Agreement, are ratified and affirmed by each Borrower and shall remain in full force and effect.  The liens of Lenders on and security interests in any and all real or personal property (tangible or intangible) granted as security for any of the Loans shall continue in full force and effect and none of such property is or shall be released from such liens and security interests.  Except as expressly provided herein, this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of any rights or remedies of any Lender in respect of the Loan Documents.

 

(i)           No Duress.  Each Borrower has executed this Agreement as a free and voluntary act, without any duress, coercion or undue influence exerted by or on behalf of Lender or any other party.
