1.Amendments to Loan Agreement. Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 2 hereof, the Loan Agreement is amended as follows:
a. Maturity Date Extension. The Stated Maturity Date is extended from the Existing Stated Maturity Date to April 27, 2018 (the "Extended Stated Maturity Date"). For the avoidance of doubt, Borrower acknowledges that it has no further right or option to extend the Stated Maturity Date beyond the Extended Stated Maturity Date.
b. Predevelopment Expense Reserve Disbursements. Notwithstanding Section 3.1(2)(l) of the Loan Agreement, Borrower may submit Disbursement Requests for disbursements from the Predevelopment Expense Reserve until April 1, 2018, provided under no circumstances shall any disbursements be made from the Predevelopment Expense Reserve on or after the date that is ten (10) Business Days prior to the Extended Stated Maturity Date.
c. Interest Reserve. The Extension Interest Reserve Deposit paid to Lender pursuant to Section 2 of this Amendment shall be deposited into the Interest Reserve and held and disbursed for the payment of the Monthly Interest Payments in accordance with Section 3.1(3) of the Loan Agreement.
d. Tax Reserve. Section 3.1(1) of the Loan Agreement is amended to add the following additional provisions:
"As a condition to the effectiveness of the Second Amendment, Borrower shall pay to Lender the sum of $20,000 ("Extension Tax Reserve Deposit") for deposit into the Tax Reserve. Thereafter, on each Monthly Payment Date, Borrower shall deposit with Lender the sum of $20,000 ("Monthly Tax Reserve Deposit"). Borrower shall furnish Lender with bills for the Property Taxes for which the Tax Reserve funds are required at least thirty (30) days prior to the date on which such Property Taxes first become payable. If at any time the amount on deposit in the Tax Reserve, together with the Monthly Tax Reserve Deposits to be paid by Borrower before such Property Taxes are payable, is insufficient to pay such Property Taxes, Borrower shall pay any deficiency to Lender immediately upon demand, for deposit in the Tax Reserve. Lender shall pay such Property Taxes when the amount on deposit in the Tax Reserve is sufficient to pay such Property Taxes and Lender has received a bill for such Property Taxes."
e. Entitlements; Mandatory Principal Payment. Notwithstanding anything contain in Section 6.22 of the Loan Agreement or any other provision of the Loan Agreement, on or before March 18, 2018, one of the following three (3) conditions must be satisfied to Lender's satisfaction:
(i) Lender shall have received and approved of evidence satisfactory to Lender, that all of the Gelson's Entitlements (as defined in the Loan Agreement) have been obtained in accordance with the Gelson's Lease. Among other evidence as may be required by Lender, Lender shall have received an estoppel certificate executed by Gelson's in favor of Lender, containing the same certifications as contained in the estoppel certificate from Gelson's delivered to Lender in connection with this Amendment plus a certification, without qualification, that all of the Gelson's Entitlements have been obtained; or
(ii) Lender shall have received and approved of (A) an amendment to the Gelson's Lease, extending the outside dates to obtain all of the Gelson's Entitlements, the Anticipated Delivery Date (as defined in the Gelson's Lease) and any other critical dates set forth in the Gelson's Lease, as determined by Lender for a period of twelve (12) months from the current dates set forth in the Gelson's Lease ("Lease Amendment") and (B) an estoppel certificate executed by Gelson's in favor of Lender, with the Lease Amendment approved by Lender under clause (A) hereof referenced therein and otherwise in form and substance acceptable to Lender (and Borrower shall have provided Lender with a fully executed copy of such Lease Amendment) ; or
(iii) Borrower shall have paid to Lender in immediately available funds the sum of one million dollars ($1,000,000.00) to be applied to the principal balance of the Loan.
Borrower's failure to cause one of the foregoing conditions to be satisfied on or before March 18, 2018 shall constitute an immediate Event of Default.
f. Prepayment. Section 2.3(4) of the Loan Agreement is amended in its entirety as follows:
"2.3(4). Prepayment. Borrower may prepay the Loan, in whole but not in part, upon not less than thirty (30) days' prior written notice to Lender and upon payment of the Prepayment Premium, plus any and all accrued and unpaid interest and any other amounts due and owing under the Loan Documents. If the Loan is prepaid, in whole (or in whole or in part pursuant to a casualty or condemnation, or pursuant to Section 6.5), each such prepayment shall be made to Lender on the prepayment date specified in the applicable notice to Lender pursuant hereto, and (in every case) together with the accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount prepaid and upon payment in full, any other amounts due and owing under the Loan Documents. If the Loan is accelerated for any reason other than casualty or condemnation or pursuant to Section 6.5, Borrower shall pay to Lender, in addition to all other amounts outstanding under the Loan Documents, the Prepayment Premium. For the avoidance of doubt, Borrower shall not be required to pay a prepayment premium in connection with any full or partial prepayment of the Loan pursuant to a casualty or condemnation, or pursuant to Section 6.5. Borrower may revoke a prepayment notice or extend the date of prepayment at any time prior to the date of prepayment without prejudice to Borrower's right to deliver a prepayment notice at some later date; provided, that (i) Borrower shall keep Lender reasonably apprised of the status of any refinancing during the period between the delivery of the prepayment notice and the delivery of the revocation notice, and (ii) Borrower shall reimburse Lender, promptly on demand, for any reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Lender in reliance on the revoked or extended notice, or in connection with the anticipated prepayment of the Loan. Borrower acknowledges that the Prepayment Premium required by this Section constitutes partial compensation to Lender for the cost of reinvesting the Loan proceeds and for the loss of the contracted rate of return on the Loan. Furthermore, Borrower acknowledges that the loss that may be sustained by Lender as a result of such a prepayment by Borrower is not susceptible of precise calculation and the Prepayment Premium represents the good faith effort of Borrower and Lender to compensate Lender for such loss. Borrower confirms that Lender's agreement to make the Loan at the interest rate and on the other terms set forth herein constitutes adequate and valuable consideration, given individual weight by Borrower, for the prepayment provisions set forth in this Section 2.3(4). By initialing this provision where indicated below, Borrower waives any rights it may have under California Civil Code Section 2954.10, or any successor statute, and Borrower confirms that Lender's agreement to make the Loan at the interest rate(s) and on the other terms set forth herein constitutes adequate and valuable consideration, given individual weight by Borrower, for the prepayment provisions set forth in this Section 2.3(4).
