Unless otherwise specified to the contrary in this Agreement, the outstanding principal balance of the Six Project Loan shall bear interest at the following rates: (i) $20,000,000.00 of the Six Project Loan (the “Fixed Rate Funding”) at a fixed rate of interest equal to five and eighty-five one hundredths percent (5.85%) per annum in excess of the “Five (5) Year Swap Rate”, for a total interest rate on the Restatement Date for the Fixed Rate Funding in the amount of eight and forty-nine one hundredths percent (8.49%) (the “Fixed Rate”) and (ii) $20,000,000.00 of the Six Project Loan (the “Floating Rate Funding”) (A) from the Restatement Date until November 10, 2012, at a fixed rate of interest equal to five and eighty-five one hundredths percent (5.85%) per annum in excess of the “Three (3) Year Swap Rate”, for a total interest rate on the Restatement Date for the Floating Rate Funding in the amount of seven and sixty-four one hundredths percent (7.64%) and (B) thereafter, at a floating rate of interest equal to five and three quarters percent (5.75%) per annum in excess of the LIBOR Rate (the “Floating Rate” and collectively with the Fixed Rate, the “Six Project Interest Rates” and collectively with the Ten Project Interest Rates, the “Interest Rates”).

(c) Interest shall be computed on the basis of a fraction, the denominator of which is three hundred sixty (360) and the numerator of which is the actual number of days elapsed from the Restatement Date or the date on which the immediately preceding payment was due. If Borrowers fail to pay any installment of interest or principal within five (5) days after the date on which the same is due, Borrowers shall pay to Agent a late charge on such past due amount, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, equal to the greater of (a) interest at the Default Rate on such amount from the date when due until paid, and (b) five percent (5%) of such amount, but not in excess of the maximum amount of interest allowed by applicable law. The foregoing late charge is intended to compensate Agent for the expenses incident to handling any such delinquent payment and for the losses incurred by Agent as a result of such delinquent payment. Borrowers agree that, considering all of the circumstances existing on the date this Agreement is executed, the late charge represents a reasonable estimate of the costs and losses Agent will incur by reason of late payment. Borrowers and Agent further agree that proof of actual losses would be costly, inconvenient, impracticable and extremely difficult to fix. Acceptance of the late charge shall not constitute a waiver of the Event of Default arising from the overdue installment, and shall not prevent Agent from exercising any other rights or remedies available to Agent or Lender with respect to such Event of Default. While any Event of Default exists, the Loans shall bear interest at the Default Rate.

In connection with the conditions set forth above, Ten Project Borrowers hereby appoint Agent as their agent and attorney in fact for the purpose of using the Defeasance Deposit to purchase or cause to be purchased U.S. Obligations which provide payments on or prior to, but as close as possible to, all successive scheduled Payment Dates after the Defeasance Release Date upon which interest and principal payments are required under this Agreement and the Ten Project Note, including the amounts due on the Ten Project Maturity Date, and in amounts equal to the scheduled payments due on such dates under this Agreement and the Ten Project Note plus Agent’s reasonable estimate of administrative expenses and applicable federal income taxes associated with or to be incurred by the Successor Ten Project Borrower during the remaining term of, and applicable to, the Ten Project Loans (the “Scheduled Defeasance Payments”). Ten Project Borrowers, pursuant to the Security Agreement or other appropriate document, shall authorize and direct that the payments received from the U.S. Obligations may be made directly to Agent and applied to satisfy the obligations of Ten Project Borrowers under this Agreement, the Ten Project Note and this Section 2.5(a)(ii).
Upon compliance with the requirements of this Section 2.5(a)(ii), the Guaranty with respect to the Ten Project Borrowers shall be released (except as to obligations thereunder arising from circumstances existing or occurring prior to the Defeasance and which obligations would otherwise survive the repayment of the Ten Project Loan) and the Ten Project Loan Projects shall be released of record from the lien of the Security Documents and the pledged U.S. Obligations shall be the sole source of collateral securing the repayment of the Ten Project Loans and the Ten Project Note. Any portion of the Defeasance Deposit in excess of the amount necessary to purchase the U.S. Obligations required by the preceding paragraph and to otherwise satisfy the Ten Project Borrowers’ obligations under this Section 2.5(a)(ii) shall be remitted to Ten Project Borrowers with the release of the Ten Project Loan Projects from the lien of the applicable Security Documents.

Such Successor Ten Project Borrower shall assume the obligations of the Ten Project Borrowers under the Ten Project Note, the Security Agreement and the other Loan Documents and Ten Project Borrowers shall be relieved of their obligations thereunder, except (i) that Ten Project Borrowers shall be required to perform their obligations pursuant to this Section 2.5(a), including maintenance of the Successor Ten Project Borrower, if applicable, and (ii) for those obligations of Ten Project Borrowers which survive repayment of the Ten Project Loan. Ten Project Borrowers shall pay $1,000.00 to any such Successor Ten Project Borrower as consideration for assuming the obligations under the Ten Project Note, the Security Agreement and the other Loan Documents pursuant to the Assignment Agreement.

(b) Six Project Loan.
(i) Lock-Out Period. Except as set forth herein, the Six Project Loan is closed to prepayment in whole or in part. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Six Project Loan may be prepaid in whole or in part, on or after November 6, 2010, provided the Six Project Borrowers pay to Agent with such prepayment all accrued interest and all other outstanding amounts then due and unpaid under the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, the pro rata portion of the Exit Fee and, if applicable, the SWAP Termination Fee. Additionally, (A) the Fixed Rate Funding may be prepaid in whole but not in part, up to ninety (90) days prior to the maturity of the “Five (5) Year Swap” provided the Six Project Borrowers pay to Agent with such prepayment all accrued interest and all other outstanding amounts then due and unpaid under the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, the pro rata portion of the Exit Fee but excluding the SWAP Termination Fee which shall not be due in such circumstance and (B) the Floating Rate Funding may be prepaid in whole but not in part, up to ninety (90) days prior to the maturity of the “Three (3) Year Swap” provided the Six Project Borrowers pay to Agent with such prepayment all accrued interest and all other outstanding amounts then due and unpaid under the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, the pro rata portion of the Exit Fee but excluding the SWAP Termination Fee which shall not be due in such circumstance.

(iv) Interest Rate Protection. In the event the Six Project Borrowers, in their sole discretion, decide to enter into a Hedge Agreement with respect to the Six Project Loan, any such Hedge Agreement shall be provided by either Lender (or an Affiliate of Lender) or a bank or other financial institution whose long-term debt rating is equal to or greater than “A”. The Six Project Loan Projects shall not be pledged or encumbered in any manner to secure any obligation under the Hedge Agreement. The Six Project Borrowers shall not enter into any interest rate swap agreement, interest rate cap agreement, interest rate collar agreement or other similar agreement pertaining to fluctuations in interest rates, or any swaps, caps or collar agreements or similar arrangements providing for protection against fluctuations in currency exchange rates, either generally or under specific contingencies, other than the Hedge Agreement described by this Section, and not for speculative purposes.
(v) LIBOR Breakage Amount. Upon any payment of the Six Project Loan on any day that is not the last day of the LIBOR Period applicable thereto (regardless of the source of such prepayment and whether voluntary, by acceleration or otherwise), the Six Project Borrowers shall pay Agent, for the benefit of Lenders the LIBOR Breakage Amount. For purposes of calculating the LIBOR Breakage Amount payable to the Lenders under this Section 2.5(b)(v), each Lender shall be deemed to have actually funded the Six Project Loan through the purchase of a deposit bearing interest at LIBOR in an amount equal to the amount of the Six Project Loan and having a maturity and repricing characteristics comparable to the relevant LIBOR Period; provided, however, that each Lender may fund the Six Project Loan in any manner it sees fit, and the foregoing assumption shall be utilized only for the calculation of amounts payable under this Section 2.5(b)(v).
Section 2.6 Ten Project Loan Capital Adequacy; Increased Costs; Illegality.
(a) If Agent determines that any law, treaty, governmental (or quasi-governmental) rule, regulation, guideline or order regarding capital adequacy, reserve requirements or similar requirements or compliance by Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy, reserve requirements or similar requirements (whether or not having the force of law), in each case, adopted after the Restatement Date, from any central bank or other governmental authority increases or would have the effect of increasing the amount of capital, reserves or other funds required to be maintained by Lender and thereby reducing the rate of return on Lender’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder, then the Ten Project Borrowers shall from time to time upon demand by Agent, pay to Lender, additional amounts sufficient to compensate Lender for such reduction. A certificate as to the amount of that reduction and showing the basis of the computation thereof submitted by Agent to the Ten Project Borrowers shall, absent manifest error, be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes. Lender agrees that, as promptly as practicable after it becomes aware of any circumstances referred to above which would result in any such increased cost, Lender shall, to the extent not inconsistent with such Lender’s internal policies of general application, use reasonable commercial efforts to minimize costs and expenses incurred by it and payable to it by the Ten Project Borrowers pursuant to this Section 2.6(a).

(b) If, due to either (i) the introduction of or any change in any law or regulation (or any change in the interpretation thereof) or (ii) the compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or other governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law), in each case adopted after the Restatement Date, there shall be any increase in the cost to Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining the Ten Project Loan, then the Ten Project Borrowers shall from time to time, upon demand by Agent, pay to Lender, additional amounts sufficient to compensate Lender for such increased cost. A certificate as to the amount of such increased cost, submitted to the Ten Project Borrowers by Agent, shall be conclusive and binding on the Ten Project Borrowers for all purposes, absent manifest error. Lender agrees that, as promptly as practicable after it becomes aware of any circumstances referred to above which would result in any such increased cost, Lender shall, to the extent not inconsistent with such Lender’s internal policies of general application, use reasonable commercial efforts to minimize costs and expenses incurred by it and payable to it by Borrowers pursuant to this Section 2.6(b).
Section 2.7 Six Project Loan Capital Adequacy; Increased Costs; Illegality.
(a) If Agent determines that any law, treaty, governmental (or quasi-governmental) rule, regulation, guideline or order regarding capital adequacy, reserve requirements or similar requirements or compliance by Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy, reserve requirements or similar requirements (whether or not having the force of law), in each case, adopted after the Restatement Date, from any central bank or other governmental authority increases or would have the effect of increasing the amount of capital, reserves or other funds required to be maintained by Lender and thereby reducing the rate of return on Lender’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder, then the Six Project Borrowers shall from time to time upon demand by Agent, pay to Lender, additional amounts sufficient to compensate Lender for such reduction. A certificate as to the amount of that reduction and showing the basis of the computation thereof submitted by Agent to the Six Project Borrowers shall, absent manifest error, be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes. Lender agrees that, as promptly as practicable after it becomes aware of any circumstances referred to above which would result in any such increased cost, Lender shall, to the extent not inconsistent with such Lender’s internal policies of general application, use reasonable commercial efforts to minimize costs and expenses incurred by it and payable to it by the Six Project Borrowers pursuant to this Section 2.7(a).
(b) If, due to either (i) the introduction of or any change in any law or regulation (or any change in the interpretation thereof) or (ii) the compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or other governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law), in each case adopted after the Restatement Date, there shall be any increase in the cost to Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining the Six Project Loan, then the Six Project Borrowers shall from time to time, upon demand by Agent, pay to Lender, additional amounts sufficient to compensate Lender for such increased cost. A certificate as to the amount of such increased cost, submitted to the Six Project Borrowers by Agent, shall be conclusive and binding on the Six Project Borrowers for all purposes, absent manifest error. Lender agrees that, as promptly as practicable after it becomes aware of any circumstances referred to above which would result in any such increased cost, Lender shall, to the extent not inconsistent with such Lender’s internal policies of general application, use reasonable commercial efforts to minimize costs and expenses incurred by it and payable to it by Borrowers pursuant to this Section 2.7(b).

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if the introduction of or any change in any law or regulation (or any change in the interpretation thereof) shall make it unlawful, or any central bank or other governmental authority shall assert that it is unlawful, for Lender to agree to make or to make or to continue to fund or maintain the portion of the Six Project Loan bearing interest computed by reference to the Libor Rate, then, unless Lender is able to make or to continue to fund or to maintain such portion of the Six Project Loan at another office of Lender without, in Lender’s opinion, adversely affecting it or such portion of the Six Project Loan or the income obtained therefrom, on notice thereof and demand therefor by Lender to the Six Project Borrowers, the interest rate on such portion of the Six Project Loan shall be converted to a rate determined by substituting the Base Rate for the Libor Rate in the calculation thereof.
Section 2.8 Sources and Uses.
The sources and uses of funds for the contemplated transaction are as described on Schedule 2.9 attached hereto. Borrowers shall deliver such information and documentation as Agent shall request to verify that the sources and uses are as indicated on Schedule 2.9.

ARTICLE III
INSURANCE, CONDEMNATION, AND IMPOUNDS
Section 3.1 Insurance. Borrowers shall maintain (or cause to be maintained) insurance as follows:
(a) Casualty; Business Interruption. Borrowers shall keep the Projects insured against damage by fire and the other hazards covered by a standard extended coverage and all-risk insurance policy for the full insurable value thereof on a replacement cost claim recovery basis (without reduction for depreciation or co-insurance and without any exclusions or reduction of policy limits for acts of domestic and foreign terrorism and other specified action/inaction), and shall maintain boiler and machinery insurance, acts of domestic and foreign terrorism endorsement coverage and such other casualty insurance as reasonably required by Agent. Agent reserves the right to require from time to time the following additional insurance: flood; earthquake/sinkhole; windstorm; worker’s compensation; and/or building law or ordinance. Borrowers shall keep the Projects insured against loss by flood if any Project is located currently or at any time in the future in an area identified by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as an area having special flood hazards and in which flood insurance has been made available under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973 or the National Flood Insurance Reform Act of 1994 (as such acts may from time to time be amended) in an amount at least equal to the lesser of (i) the maximum amount of the Loans or (ii) the maximum limit of coverage available under said acts. Any such flood insurance policy shall be issued in accordance with the requirements and current guidelines of the Federal Insurance Administration. Borrowers shall maintain business interruption insurance, including use and occupancy, rental income loss and extra expense, for all periods covered by Borrowers’ property insurance for a limit equal to twelve (12) calendar months’ exposure, all without any exclusions or reduction of policy limits for acts of domestic and foreign terrorism or other specified action/inaction. Borrowers shall not maintain any separate or additional insurance which is contributing in the event of loss unless it is properly endorsed and otherwise reasonably satisfactory to Agent in all respects. The proceeds of insurance paid on account of any damage or destruction to any Project shall be paid to Agent to be applied as provided in Section 3.2.
(b) Liability. Borrowers shall maintain (i) commercial general liability insurance with respect to each Project providing for limits of liability in the amount approved by Agent for both injury to or death of a person and for property damage per occurrence, (ii) umbrella liability coverage in the amount and to the extent required by Agent, and (iii) other liability insurance as reasonably required by Agent. In addition, Borrowers shall cause each Operator to maintain (A) worker’s compensation insurance and employer’s liability insurance covering employees at the Projects employed by Borrowers or Master Tenants (in the amounts required by applicable Laws) and (B) professional liability insurance. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, from and after the date hereof, insurance coverage for terrorism, terrorist acts or similar perils (collectively, “Terrorism”) may be required by Agent if such coverage is (1) customarily obtained by owners of property similar to the Projects in use, character and applicable geographic metropolitan location, and (2) readily available at a cost which, in Agent’s opinion, exercised reasonably, is commercially reasonable.

 

-16-


 

(c) Form and Quality. All insurance policies shall be endorsed in form and substance acceptable to Agent to name Agent as an additional insured, loss payee or mortgagee thereunder, as its interest may appear, with loss payable to Agent, without contribution, under a standard New York (or local equivalent) mortgagee clause. All such insurance policies and endorsements shall be fully paid for and contain such provisions and expiration dates and be in such form and issued by such insurance companies licensed to do business in the state in which the applicable Project is located, with a rating of “A IX” or better as established by Best’s Rating Guide and “AA” or better by Standard & Poor’s Ratings Group. Each policy shall provide that such policy may not be canceled or materially changed except upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice of intention of non-renewal, cancellation or material change to Agent and that no act or thing done by Borrowers shall invalidate any policy as against Agent. Blanket policies shall be permitted only if (i) Agent receives appropriate endorsements and/or duplicate policies containing Agent’s right to continue coverage on a pro rata pass-through basis and that coverage will not be affected by any loss on other properties covered by the policies and (ii) the policy contains a sublimit equal to the replacement cost of the Projects in an amount approved by Agent which is expressly allocated for each Project, and any such policy shall in all other respects comply with the requirements of this Section.
(d) Premiums. In the event Borrowers fail to provide Agent with evidence of the insurance coverage required by this Agreement, Borrowers authorize Agent to pay the premiums for such policies (the “Insurance Premiums”) at Borrowers’ expense to protect Agent’s interests in the Projects. This insurance may, but need not, protect Borrowers’ interests. The coverage purchased by Agent may not pay any claim made by any Borrower or any claim that is made against any Borrower in connection with the Projects. If Agent purchases insurance for the Projects, Borrowers shall, on demand, reimburse Agent for all expenses incurred in connection therewith.
(e) Assignments. Borrowers shall assign the policies or proofs of insurance to Agent, in such manner and form that Agent and its successors and assigns shall at all times have and hold the same as security for the payment of the Loans. If requested by Agent, Borrowers shall deliver copies of all original policies certified to Agent by the insurance company or authorized agent as being true copies, together with the endorsements required hereunder. If Borrowers elect to obtain any insurance which is not required under this Agreement, all related insurance policies shall be endorsed in compliance with Section 3.1(c), and such additional insurance shall not be canceled without prior notice to Agent. From time to time upon Agent’s request, Borrowers shall identify to Agent all insurance maintained by Borrowers with respect to the Projects. The proceeds of insurance policies coming into the possession of Agent shall not be deemed trust funds, and Agent shall be entitled to apply such proceeds as herein provided.
(f) Adjustments. Borrowers shall give immediate written notice of any loss to the insurance carrier and to Agent. Borrowers hereby irrevocably authorize and empower Lender, as attorney in fact for Borrowers coupled with an interest, to notify any of Borrowers’ insurance carriers to add Agent as a loss payee, mortgagee insured or additional insured, as the case may be, to any policy maintained by Borrowers (regardless of whether such policy is required under this Agreement), to make proof of loss, to adjust and compromise any claim under insurance policies, to appear in and prosecute any action arising from such insurance policies, to collect and receive insurance proceeds, and to deduct therefrom Agent’s reasonable expenses incurred in the collection of such proceeds. Nothing contained in this Section 3.l(e), however, shall require Agent to incur any expense or take any action hereunder.

Section 3.2 Use and Application of Insurance Proceeds.
(a) Notice; Repair Obligation. If any Project shall be damaged or destroyed, in whole or in part, by fire or other casualty (a “Casualty”), Borrowers shall give prompt notice thereof to Agent. Following the occurrence of a Casualty, Borrowers, regardless of whether insurance proceeds are available, shall promptly proceed to restore, repair, replace or rebuild the same to be of at least equal value and of substantially the same character as prior to such damage or destruction, all to be effected in accordance with applicable law.
(b) Application of Insurance Proceeds. Agent shall apply insurance proceeds to costs of restoring the damaged Project or to the payment of the applicable Loan as follows:
(i) Agent shall apply the insurance proceeds to restoration provided (A) no Event of Default or Potential Default exists, (B) Borrowers promptly commence and are diligently pursuing restoration of the damaged Project and (C) the loss does not exceed 35% of the Allocated Loan Amount set forth on Schedule 3.2 for such Project(s) affected by such loss; and
(ii) if the conditions set forth in (i) above are not satisfied, in Lender’s reasonable discretion, Agent may apply any insurance proceeds it may receive to amounts owing under the Loan Documents in such order and manner as Agent in its sole discretion determines, or allow all or a portion of such proceeds to be used for the restoration of the damaged Project.
(c) Disbursement of Insurance Proceeds. Insurance proceeds applied to restoration will be disbursed on receipt of reasonably satisfactory plans and specifications, contracts and subcontracts, schedules, budgets, lien waivers and architects’ certificates, and otherwise in accordance with prudent commercial construction lending practices for construction loan advances (including appropriate retainages to ensure that all work is completed in a workmanlike manner).
Section 3.3 Condemnation Awards.
Borrowers shall immediately notify Agent of the institution of any actual or threatened commencement of any proceeding for the condemnation or other taking of any Project or any portion thereof. Agent may participate in any such proceeding and Borrowers will deliver to Agent all instruments necessary or required by Agent to permit such participation. Without Agent’s prior consent, Borrowers (a) shall not agree to any compensation or award, and (b) shall not take any action or fail to take any action which would cause the compensation to be determined. All awards and compensation for the taking or purchase in lieu of condemnation of the Projects or any part thereof are hereby assigned to and shall be paid to Agent. Borrowers authorize Agent to collect and receive such awards and compensation, to give proper receipts and acquittances therefor, and in Agent’s sole discretion, (a) to apply the same (after deduction of Lender’s reasonable costs and expenses, if any in collecting the same) toward the payment of the Loans in such order and manner as Agent may elect, notwithstanding that the Loans may not then be due and payable, or (b) to make the same available to Borrowers for the restoration or repair of the Projects. If the net proceeds of the condemnation award are made available to Borrower for restoration or repair, such proceeds shall be disbursed upon satisfaction of and in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in Section 3.2. Borrowers, upon request by Agent, shall execute all instruments requested to confirm the assignment of the awards and compensation to Agent, free and clear of all liens, charges or encumbrances.

Section 3.4 Insurance Impounds.
The Ten Project Borrowers have previously deposited with Agent, a sum of money (the “Ten Project Insurance Impound”) equal to one-sixth (1/6th) of the annual charges for Insurance Premiums relating to the insurance coverages for the Ten Project Loan Projects required by this Agreement. At or before the advance of the Six Project Loan, the Six Project Borrowers shall deposit with Agent a sum of money, which will be sufficient to establish a reserve (the “Six Project Insurance Impound” and collectively with the Ten Project Insurance Impound, the “Insurance Impound”) equal to approximately 1/6 of the annual charges for Insurance Premiums relating to the insurance coverages for the Six Project Loan Projects in Agent’s sole but reasonable estimation. Deposits shall be made on the basis of Agent’s estimate from time to time of the charges for the current year. All funds so deposited shall be held by Agent. These sums may be commingled with the general funds of Agent, and shall not be deemed to be held in trust for the benefit of Borrowers. Borrowers hereby grant to Agent for the benefit of Lender and Agent a security interest in all funds so deposited with Agent for the purpose of securing the Loans. While an Event of Default exists, the funds deposited may be applied in payment of the charges for which such funds have been deposited, or to the payment of the Loans or any other charges affecting the security of Agent, as Agent may elect, but no such application shall be deemed to have been made by operation of law or otherwise until actually made by Agent. If at any time the amount on deposit in the Insurance Impound with Agent is insufficient to maintain a reserve equal to approximately 1/6 of the annual charges for Insurance Premiums relating to the insurance coverages for the Projects in Agent’s sole but reasonable estimation, Borrowers shall deposit any deficiency with Agent immediately upon demand. On the applicable Maturity Date, the monies then remaining on deposit with Agent attributable to the then maturing Six Project Loan or Ten Project Loan, as applicable, shall, at Agent’s option, be applied against the Obligations or if no Potential Default is continuing, returned to applicable Borrowers.
Section 3.5 Real Estate Tax Impounds.
The Ten Project Borrowers have previously deposited and shall continue to deposit with Agent, monthly on each Payment Date, a sum of money (the “Ten Project Tax Impound”) equal to one twelfth (1/12th) of the annual charges for real estate taxes, assessments, franchise taxes and changes, impositions and other charges and obligations (collectively, the “Taxes”) relating to the Ten Project Loan Projects which will be sufficient to make payments of Taxes relating to the Ten Project Loan Projects thirty (30) days prior to the date any delinquency or penalty becomes due with respect to such payments and maintain a reserve equal to approximately 1/6 of such annual Taxes. At or before the advance of the Six Project Loan, the Six Project Borrowers shall deposit with Agent a sum of money (the “Six Project Tax Impound” and collectively with the Ten Project Tax Impound, the “Tax Impound”) which,

 

-19-


 

together with the monthly installments on each Payment Date equal to one twelfth (1/12th) of the annual charges for Taxes relating to the Six Project Loan Projects, will be sufficient to make payments of Taxes relating to the Six Project Loan Projects thirty (30) days prior to the date any delinquency or penalty becomes due with respect to such payments and maintain a reserve equal to approximately 1/6 of the annual Taxes relating to the Six Project Loan Projects, in Agent’s sole but reasonable estimation. Deposits shall be made on the basis of Agent’s estimate from time to time of the Taxes for the current year (after giving effect to any reassessment or, at Agent’s election, on the basis of the Taxes for the prior year, with adjustments when the Taxes are fixed for the then current year). All funds so deposited shall be held by Agent. These sums may be commingled with Agent’s general funds and shall not be deemed to be held in trust for the benefit of Borrowers. Borrowers hereby grant to Agent for the benefit of Lender and Agent a security interest in all funds so deposited with Agent for the purpose of securing the Loans. While an Event of Default exists, the funds deposited may be applied in payment of the charges for which such funds have been deposited, or to the payment of the Loans or any other charges affecting the security of Agent, as Agent may elect, but no such application shall be deemed to have been made by operation of law or otherwise until actually made by Agent. Borrowers shall furnish Agent with bills for the Taxes for which such deposits are required at least thirty (30) days prior to the date on which the Taxes first become payable. If at any time the amount on deposit with Agent, together with amounts to be deposited by Borrowers before such Taxes are payable, is insufficient to pay such Taxes and maintain such reserves, the applicable Borrowers shall deposit any deficiency with Agent immediately upon demand. Agent shall pay such Taxes when the amount on deposit with Agent is sufficient to pay such Taxes and Agent has received a bill for such Taxes. The obligation of Borrowers to pay the Taxes, as set forth in the Loan Documents, is not affected or modified by the provision of this paragraph. On the applicable Maturity Date, the monies then remaining on deposit with Agent attributable to the then maturing Six Project Loan or Ten Project Loan, as applicable, shall, at Agent’s option, be applied against the Obligations or if no Potential Default is continuing, returned to applicable Borrowers.
Section 3.6 Replacement Reserves.
(a) Deposits. On each Payment Date, (i) the Ten Project Borrowers shall pay to Agent an amount equal to the product of Thirty Dollars ($30) multiplied by the number of Residential Units in the Ten Project Loan Projects (the “Ten Project Replacement Reserve”) and (ii) the Six Project Borrowers shall pay to Agent an amount equal to the product of Thirty Dollars ($30) multiplied by the number of Residential Units in the Six Project Loan Projects (the “Six Project Replacement Reserve” and collectively with the Ten Project Replacement Reserve, the “Replacement Reserve“).
(b) Pledge and Disbursement of Funds. Borrowers hereby grant to Agent for the benefit of Lender and Agent a security interest in the Replacement Reserve for the purpose of securing the Loans. On the applicable Maturity Date and on the date of any Release, the monies then remaining on deposit with Agent attributable to the Release Project or the then maturing Six Project Loan or Ten Project Loan, as applicable, shall, at Agent’s option, be applied against the Obligations or if no Potential Default is continuing, returned to the applicable Borrowers. The Replacement Reserve may be commingled with the general funds of the Agent, and these sums shall not be deemed to be held in trust for the benefit of Borrowers. So long as no Event of Default hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents has occurred and is continuing, Borrowers may request, from time to time, Agent to disburse funds from the Replacement Reserve (which request will include a reasonably detailed description of the capital expenditures at the Projects which Borrowers intend to pay for with such funds), which request shall not be unreasonably denied by Agent. If requested by Agent, each disbursement request will be accompanied by copies of invoices, lien waivers and other evidence reasonably required by Agent. If an Event of Default occurs, Agent shall have the right to apply all or any portion of the Replacement Reserve to the Obligations evidenced by the Loan Documents in such order as Agent in its sole discretion determines.

Section 5.17 Solvency.
After giving effect to the Loans, the fair saleable value of each Borrower’s assets exceeds and will, immediately following the making of the Loans, exceed any Borrower’s total liabilities, including, without limitation, subordinated, unliquidated, disputed and contingent liabilities. The fair saleable value of each Borrower’s assets is and will, immediately following the making of the Loans, be greater than such Borrower’s probable liabilities, including the maximum amount of its contingent liabilities on its Debts as such Debts become absolute and matured, no Borrower’s assets constitute and, immediately following the making of the Loans will not constitute, unreasonably small capital to carry out its business as conducted or as proposed to be conducted. No Borrower intends to, nor believes that it will, incur Debts and liabilities (including contingent liabilities and other commitments) beyond its ability to pay such Debts as they mature (taking into account the timing and amounts of cash to be received by such Borrower and the amounts to be payable on or in respect of obligations of such Borrower).

REMEDIES
Section 10.1 Remedies — Insolvency Events.
Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in Section 9.7 or 9.8, the obligations of Lender to advance amounts hereunder shall immediately terminate, and all amounts due under the Loan Documents immediately shall become due and payable, all without written notice and without presentment, demand, protest, notice of protest or dishonor, notice of intent to accelerate the maturity thereof, notice of acceleration of the maturity thereof, or any other notice of default of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by Borrowers; however, if the Bankruptcy Party under Section 9.7 or 9.8 is other than a Borrower, then all amounts due under the Loan Documents shall become immediately due and payable at Lender’s election, in Agent’s sole discretion.
Section 10.2 Remedies — Other Events.
Except as set forth in Section 10.1 above, while any Event of Default exists, Agent may (a) by written notice to Borrowers, declare the entire Loan to be immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest, notice of protest or dishonor, notice of intent to accelerate the maturity thereof, notice of acceleration of the maturity thereof, or other notice of default of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by Borrowers, (b) terminate the obligation, if any, of Lender to advance amounts hereunder, and (c) exercise all rights and remedies therefore under the Loan Documents and at law or in equity.
Section 10.3 Agent’s Right to Perform the Obligations.
If Borrowers shall fail, refuse or neglect to make any payment or perform any act required by the Loan Documents, then while any Event of Default exists, and without notice to or demand upon Borrowers and without waiving or releasing any other right, remedy or recourse Agent or Lender may have because of such Event of Default, Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) make such payment or perform such act for the account of and at the expense of Borrowers, and shall have the right to enter upon the Projects for such purpose and to take all such action thereon and with respect to the Projects as it may deem necessary or appropriate. If Agent shall elect to pay any sum due with reference to the Projects, Agent may do so in reliance on any bill, statement or assessment procured from the appropriate governmental authority or other issuer thereof without inquiring into the accuracy or validity thereof. Similarly, in making any payments to protect the security intended to be created by the Loan Documents, Agent shall not be bound to inquire into the validity of any apparent or threatened adverse title, lien, encumbrance, claim or charge before making an advance for the purpose of preventing or removing the same. Additionally, if any Hazardous Materials (as defined in the Environmental Indemnity) affect or threaten to affect any Project, Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) give such notices and take such actions as it deems necessary or advisable in order to abate the discharge of any Hazardous Materials or remove the Hazardous Materials. In exercising any rights under the Loan Documents or taking any actions provided for therein, Agent may act through its employees, agents or independent contractors as authorized by Agent. Borrowers shall, and hereby do, indemnify, defend and hold Agent and Lender from and against any and all losses, expenses, damages, claims and causes of action, liabilities, obligations, penalties, judgments, suits, or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred or accruing by reason of any acts performed by Agent or Lender pursuant to the provisions of this Section 10.3, including those arising from the joint, concurrent, or comparative negligence of Agent or Lender, except as a result of Agent or Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. All sums paid by Agent or Lender pursuant to this Section 10.3, and all other sums expended by Agent or Lender to which they shall be entitled to be indemnified, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date of such payment or expenditure until paid, shall constitute additions to the Loans, shall be secured by the Loan Documents and shall be paid by Borrowers to Agent upon demand.

Section 11.3 Limitation on Interest.
It is the intention of the parties hereto to conform strictly to applicable usury laws. Accordingly, all agreements between Borrowers, Agent and Lender with respect to the Loans are hereby expressly limited so that in no event, whether by reason of acceleration of maturity or otherwise, shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid to Lender or charged by Lender for the use, forbearance or detention of the money to be lent hereunder or otherwise, exceed the maximum amount allowed by law. If either Loan would be usurious under applicable law, then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Loan Documents: (a) the aggregate of all consideration which constitutes interest under applicable law that is contracted for, taken, reserved, charged or received under the Loan Documents shall under no circumstances exceed the maximum amount of interest allowed by applicable law, and any excess shall be credited on the applicable Note pro rata by the holder thereof (or, if such Note has been paid in full, refunded to applicable Borrowers); and (b) if maturity is accelerated by reason of an election by Agent or Lender, or in the event of any prepayment, then any consideration which constitutes interest may never include more than the maximum amount allowed by applicable law. In such case, excess interest, if any, provided for in the Loan Documents or otherwise, to the extent permitted by applicable law, shall be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread from the date of advance until payment in full so that the actual rate of interest is uniform through the term hereof. If such amortization, proration, allocation and spreading is not permitted under applicable law, then such excess interest shall be cancelled automatically as of the date of such acceleration or prepayment and, if theretofore paid, shall be credited on the Notes pro rata (or, if the Notes have been paid in full, refunded to Borrowers). The terms and provisions of this Section 11.3 shall control and supersede every other provision of the Loan Documents. The Loan Documents are contracts made under and shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of New York, except that (1) if at any time the laws of the United States of America permit Lender to contract for, take, reserve, charge or receive a higher rate of interest than is allowed by the laws of the State of New York (whether such federal laws directly so provide or refer to the law of any state), then such federal laws shall to such extent govern as to the rate of interest which Lender may contract for, take, reserve, charge or receive under the Loan Documents and (2) to the extent otherwise specified in any of the Loan Documents.
Section 11.4 Invalid Provisions.
If any provision of any Loan Document is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be fully severable; the Loan Documents shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision had never comprised a part thereof; the remaining provisions thereof shall remain in full effect and shall not be affected by the illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision or by its severance therefrom; and in lieu of such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision there shall be added automatically as a part of such Loan Document a provision as similar in terms to such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision as may be possible to be legal, valid and enforceable.

Section 11.5 Reimbursement of Expenses; Portfolio Administration Fee.
(a) Borrowers shall pay all expenses incurred by Agent and Lenders in connection with the Loans, including, without limitation, (i) out-of-pocket costs and expenses of Agent and Lender in connection with (a) the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the documents and instruments referred to therein; (b) due diligence with respect to the Collateral and the creation, perfection or protection of Agent’s liens in the Collateral (including, without limitation, fees and expenses for title and lien searches, premiums for title insurance and endorsements thereto, amended or replacement Security Documents, Uniform Commercial Code financing statements or other collateral security instruments, title insurance premiums and filing and recording fees, third party due diligence expenses for the Projects plus travel expenses, accounting firm fees, costs of the appraisals (including any appraisals required to comply with FIRREA) and Site Assessments (and the environmental consultant), the engineering reports, audit costs and costs and fees incurred in connection with arranging, setting up, servicing any pledged accounts or similar collateral); (c) the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of any amendment, waiver, restructuring, workout or consent relating to any of the Loan Documents, (d) the settlement of or dispute regarding condemnation and casualty awards and (e) the preservation of rights under and enforcement of the Loan Documents and the documents and instruments referred to therein, including any communications or discussions relating to any action that any Borrower shall from time to time request Agent to take, as well as any restructuring or rescheduling of the Loans, (ii) the fees, expenses and other charges of counsel to Agent and the Lender in connection with all of the foregoing, (iii) all fees and expenses of any servicer appointed by Agent to service and administer the Loans and its counsel, and (iv) Agent’s or Lender’s reasonable travel and other out-of-pocket expenses in connection with site visits to the Projects. Borrowers shall, upon request, promptly reimburse Agent and Lender for all amounts expended, advanced or incurred by Agent and Lender to collect the Notes, or to enforce the rights of Agent and Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to defend or assert the rights and claims of Agent and Lender under the Loan Documents or with respect to the Projects (by litigation or other proceedings), which amounts will include all court costs, attorneys’ fees and expenses, fees of auditors and accountants, and investigation expenses as may be incurred by Agent and Lender in connection with any such matters (whether or not litigation is instituted), together with interest at the Default Rate on each such amount from the date of disbursement until the date of reimbursement to Agent, all of which shall constitute part of the Loans and shall be secured by the Loan Documents.
(b) Borrowers shall also pay to Agent on the first (1st) day of each month during the term of the Six Project Loan, in addition to all other amounts due under the Loan Documents, a collateral monitoring fee of $150/Six Project Loan Project, which fee shall be deemed to be fully earned when due and nonrefundable.
Section 11.6 Approvals; Third Parties; Conditions.
All approval rights retained or exercised by Agent with respect to leases, contracts, plans, studies and other matters are solely to facilitate Lender’s credit underwriting, and shall not be deemed or construed as a determination that Agent or Lender has passed on the adequacy thereof for any other purpose and may not be relied upon by Borrowers or any other Person. This Agreement is for the sole and exclusive use of Agent, Lender and Borrowers and may not be enforced, nor relied upon, by any Person other than Agent, Lender and Borrowers. All conditions of the obligations of Agent or Lender hereunder, including the obligation to make advances, are imposed solely and exclusively for the benefit of Agent and Lender, and their respective successors and assigns, and no other Person shall have standing to require satisfaction of such conditions or be entitled to assume that Lender will refuse to make advances in the absence of strict compliance with any or all of such conditions, and no other Person shall, under any circumstances, be deemed to be a beneficiary of such conditions, any and all of which may be freely waived in whole or in part by Agent or Lender, as applicable, at any time in Agent’s or Lender’s sole discretion.

Section 11.7 Lender Not in Control; No Partnership.
None of the covenants or other provisions contained in this Agreement shall, or shall be deemed to, give Agent or Lender the right or power to exercise control over the affairs or management of Borrowers, the power of Agent and Lender being limited to the rights to exercise the remedies referred to in the Loan Documents. The relationship between Borrowers, on the one hand, and Agent and Lender, on the other hand, is, and at all times shall remain, solely that of debtor and creditor. No covenant or provision of the Loan Documents is intended, nor shall it be deemed or construed, to create a partnership, joint venture, agency or common interest in profits or income between Agent and Lender, on the one hand, and Borrowers, on the other hand, or to create an equity in the Projects in Lender or Agent. Neither Agent nor Lender either undertakes or assumes any responsibility or duty to Borrowers or to any other person with respect to the Projects or the Loans, except as expressly provided in the Loan Documents; and notwithstanding any other provision of the Loan Documents (a) Neither Agent nor Lender is nor shall be construed as, a partner, joint venturer, alter ego, manager, controlling person or other business associate or participant of any kind of Borrowers or its stockholders, members, or partners and neither Agent nor Lender intends to ever assume such status; (b) Neither Agent nor Lender shall in any event be liable for any Debts, expenses or losses incurred or sustained by Borrowers; and (c) neither Agent nor Lender shall be deemed responsible for or a participant in any acts, omissions or decisions of Borrowers or their stockholders, members, or partners. Agent, and Lender, on the one hand, and Borrowers, on the other hand, disclaim any intention to create any partnership, joint venture, agency or common interest in profits or income between Agent and Lender, on the one hand, and Borrowers, on the other hand, or to create an equity in the Projects in Agent or Lender, or any sharing of liabilities, losses, costs or expenses.
Section 11.8 Time of the Essence.
Time is of the essence with respect to this Agreement.
Section 11.9 Successors and Assigns.
This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Agent, Lender and Borrowers and the respective successors and assigns of Agent, Lender and Borrowers, provided that neither any Borrower nor any other Guarantor shall, without the prior written consent of Agent, assign any rights, duties or obligations hereunder.
Section 11.10 Renewal, Extension or Rearrangement.
All provisions of the Loan Documents shall apply with equal effect to each and all promissory notes and amendments thereof hereinafter executed which in whole or in part represent a renewal, extension, increase or rearrangement of the Loans. For portfolio management purposes, Agent and Lender may elect to divide the Loans into two or more separate loans evidenced by separate promissory notes so long as the payment and other obligations of Borrowers are not effectively increased or otherwise modified. Borrowers agree to cooperate with Agent and to execute such documents as Agent reasonably may request to effect such division of the Loans.

Section 11.11 Waivers; Forbearance.
No advance of Loan proceeds hereunder shall constitute a waiver of any of the conditions of Lender’s obligation to make advances nor, in the event Borrower is unable to satisfy any such condition, shall any such advance have the effect of precluding Lender or Agent from thereafter requiring such condition to be satisfied prior to any future advance to which such condition otherwise applies. No course of dealing on the part of Agent or Lender, or their respective officers, employees, consultants or agents, nor any failure or delay by Agent or Lender with respect to exercising any right, power or privilege of Agent or Lender under any of the Loan Documents, shall operate as a waiver thereof. Any forbearance by Agent or Lender in exercising any right or remedy under any of the Loan Documents, or otherwise afforded by applicable law, shall not be a waiver of or preclude the exercise of any right or remedy. Agent’s acceptance of payment of any sum secured by any of the Loan Documents after the due date of such payment shall not be a waiver of Agent’s or Lender’s right to either require prompt payment when due of all other sums so secured or to declare a Potential Default for failure to make prompt payment. The procurement of insurance or the payment of taxes or other liens or charges by Agent or Lender shall not be a waiver of Agent’s or Lender’s right to accelerate the maturity of the Loans, nor shall Agent’s or Lender’s receipt of any awards, proceeds, or damages under this Agreement or the Security Document operate to cure or waive Borrowers’ or any Guarantor’s Potential Default in payment of sums secured by any of the Loan Documents.
Section 11.12 Cumulative Rights.
Rights and remedies of Agent and Lender under the Loan Documents shall be cumulative, and the exercise or partial exercise of any such right or remedy shall not preclude the exercise of any other right or remedy.
Section 11.13 Singular and Plural.
Words used in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in the singular, where the context so permits, shall be deemed to include the plural and vice versa. The definitions of words in the singular in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall apply to such words when used in the plural where the context so permits and vice versa.

Lender or Agent, at any time and without the consent of Borrowers or Guarantor may grant participations in or sell, transfer, assign and convey all or any portion of its right, title and interest in and to the Loans, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, any guaranties given in connection with the Loans and any collateral given to secure the Loans. Agent and Lender shall have the right (but shall be under no obligation) to make available to any party for the purpose of granting participations in or selling, transferring, assigning or conveying all or any part of the Loans (including any governmental agency or authority and any prospective bidder at any foreclosure sale of any Project) any and all information which Agent or Lender may have with respect to the Projects and Borrowers, whether provided by Borrowers, Guarantor or any third party or obtained as a result of any environmental assessments. Each Borrower and each Guarantor agrees that Agent and Lender shall have no liability whatsoever as a result of delivering any such information to any third party, and Borrowers and the other Loan Parties, on behalf of themselves and their successors and assigns, hereby release and discharge Agent and Lender from any and all liability, claims, damages, or causes of action, arising out of, connected with or incidental to the delivery of any such information to any third party.
Section 11.26 Limitation on Liability of Agent’s and Lender’s Officers, Employees, etc.
Any obligation or liability whatsoever of Agent or Lender which may arise at any time under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be satisfied, if at all, out of the Agent’s or Lender’s assets only. No such obligation or liability shall be personally binding upon, nor shall resort for the enforcement thereof be had to, the property of any of Agent’s or Lender’s shareholders, directors, officers, employees or agents, regardless of whether such obligation or liability is in the nature of contract, tort or otherwise.

Section 11.27 Effectiveness of Facsimile Documents and Signatures.
The Loan Documents may be transmitted and/or signed by facsimile. The effectiveness of any such documents and signatures shall, subject to applicable law, have the same force and effect as manually signed originals and shall be binding on all parties to the Loan Documents. Agent may also require that any such documents and signatures be confirmed by a manually signed original thereof; provided, however, that the failure to request or deliver the same shall not limit the effectiveness of any facsimile document or signature.
Section 11.28 Joint and Several Liability.
(a) Cross-Guaranty. Each Borrower hereby agrees that each such Borrower is, and each such Borrowers’ heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns are, jointly and severally liable for, and hereby absolutely and unconditionally guarantees to Agent and Lender and their respective successors and assigns, the full and prompt payment (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) and performance of, the Loans, Indebtedness and all other obligations of Borrowers hereunder and under the Loan Documents (collectively, the “Obligations”) owed or hereafter owing to Agent and Lender by each other Borrower. Each Borrower agrees that its guaranty obligation hereunder is a continuing guaranty of payment and performance and not of collection, that its obligations under this Section 11.28 shall not be discharged until payment and performance, in full, of the Obligations has occurred, and that its obligations under this Section 11.28 shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of, and unaffected by:
(i) the genuineness, validity, regularity, enforceability or any future amendment of, or change in, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, document or instrument to which any other Borrower is or may become a party;
(ii) the absence of any action to enforce this Agreement (including this Section 11.28) or any other Loan Document or the waiver or consent by Agent and Lenders with respect to any of the provisions thereof;
(iii) the existence, value or condition of, or failure to perfect any Lien or any security for the Obligations or any action, or the absence of any action, by Agent and Lenders in respect thereof (including the release of any such security);
(iv) the insolvency of any other Borrower;
(v) the institution of any proceeding under the Federal Bankruptcy Code, or any similar proceeding, by or against a Borrower or Agent’s election in any such proceeding of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Federal Bankruptcy Code;
(vi) any borrowing or grant of a security interest by any Borrower as debtor-in-possession, under Section 364 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code;

 

-62-


 

(vii) the disallowance, under Section 502 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code, of all or any portion of Agent’s claim(s) for repayment of any of the Obligations; or
(viii) any other action or circumstances that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor other than the payment and performance, in full, of the Obligations.
Each Borrower shall be regarded, and shall be in the same position, as principal debtor with respect to the Obligations guaranteed hereunder.
(b) Waivers by Borrowers. Each Borrower expressly waives all rights it may have now or in the future under any statute, or at common law, or at law or in equity, or otherwise, to compel Agent or Lender to marshall assets or to proceed in respect of the Obligations guaranteed hereunder against any other Borrower, any other party or against any security for the payment and performance of the Obligations before proceeding against, or as a condition to proceeding against, such Borrower. It is agreed among each Borrower, Agent and Lender that the foregoing waivers are of the essence of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and that, but for the provisions of this Section 11.28 and such waivers, Agent and Lender would decline to enter into this Agreement.
(c) Benefit of Guaranty. Each Borrower agrees that the provisions of this Section 11.28 are for the benefit of Agent and Lender and their respective successors, transferees, endorsees and assigns, and nothing herein contained shall impair, as between any other Borrower and Agent or Lenders, the obligations of such other Borrower under the Loan Documents.
(d) Subordination of Subrogation, Etc. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, and except as set forth in Section 11.28(g), each Borrower hereby expressly and irrevocably subordinates to payment of the Obligations any and all rights at law or in equity to subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, indemnification or set off and any and all defenses available to a surety, guarantor or accommodation co-obligor until the Obligations are indefeasibly paid in full in cash. Each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that this subordination is intended to benefit Agent and Lender and shall not limit or otherwise affect such Borrower’s liability hereunder or the enforceability of this Section 11.28, and that Agent, Lender and their respective successors and assigns are intended third party beneficiaries of the waivers and agreements set forth in this Section 11.28(d).
(e) Election of Remedies. If Agent or any Lender may, under applicable Law, proceed to realize its benefits under any of the Loan Documents giving Agent or such Lender a Lien upon any Collateral, whether owned by any Borrower or by any other Person, either by judicial foreclosure or by non-judicial sale or enforcement, Agent or any Lender may, at its sole option, determine which of its remedies or rights it may pursue without affecting any of its rights and remedies under this Section 11.28. If, in the exercise of any of its rights and remedies, Agent or any Lender shall forfeit any of its rights or remedies, including its right to enter a deficiency judgment against any Borrower or any other Person, whether because of any applicable Laws pertaining to “election of remedies” or the like, each Borrower hereby consents to such action by Agent or such Lender and waives any claim based upon such action, even if

 

-63-


 

such action by Agent or such Lender shall result in a full or partial loss of any rights of subrogation that each Borrower might otherwise have had but for such action by Agent or such Lender. Any election of remedies that results in the denial or impairment of the right of Agent or any Lender to seek a deficiency judgment against any Borrower shall not impair any other Borrower’s obligation to pay the full amount of the Obligations. In the event Agent or any Lender shall bid at any foreclosure or trustee’s sale or at any private sale permitted by law or the Loan Documents, Agent or such Lender may bid all or less than the amount of the Obligations and the amount of such bid need not be paid by Agent or such Lender but shall be credited against the Obligations. The amount of the successful bid at any such sale, whether Agent, Lender or any other party is the successful bidder, shall be conclusively deemed to be the fair market value of the Collateral and the difference between such bid amount and the remaining balance of the Obligations shall be conclusively deemed to be the amount of the Obligations guaranteed under this Section 11.28, notwithstanding that any present or future law or court decision or ruling may have the effect of reducing the amount of any deficiency claim to which Agent or any Lenders might otherwise be entitled but for such bidding at any such sale.
(f) Limitation. Each Borrower’s liability under this Section 11.28 (which liability is in any event in addition to amounts for which such Borrower is primarily liable under Sections 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.4 and 2.5 hereto) shall be limited to an amount not to exceed as of any date of determination the greater of:
(i) the net amount of all advances under any Loan to any other Borrower under this Agreement and then re-loaned or otherwise transferred to, or for the benefit of, such Borrower; and
(ii) the amount that could be claimed by Agent and any Lender from such Borrower under this Section 11.28 without rendering such claim voidable or avoidable under Section 548 of Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code or under any applicable state Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act, Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act or similar statute or common law after taking into account, among other things, such Borrower’s right of contribution and indemnification from each other Borrower under Section 11.28(g) below.
(g) Contribution with Respect to Guaranty Obligations.
(i) To the extent that any Borrower shall make a payment under this Section 11.28 of all or any of the Obligations (other than that portion of the Loans made to that Borrower for which it is primarily liable) (a “Guarantor Payment”) that, taking into account all other Guarantor Payments then previously or concurrently made by any other Borrower, exceeds the amount that such Borrower would otherwise have paid if each Borrower had paid the aggregate Obligations satisfied by such Guarantor Payment in the same proportion that such Borrower’s “Allocable Amount” (as defined below) (as determined immediately prior to such Guarantor Payment) bore to the aggregate Allocable Amounts of each of the Borrowers as determined immediately prior to the making of such Guarantor Payment, then, following indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Obligations, such Borrower shall be entitled to receive contribution and indemnification payments from, and be reimbursed by, each other Borrower for the amount of such excess, pro rata based upon their respective Allocable Amounts in effect immediately prior to such Guarantor Payment.

 

-64-


 

(ii) As of any date of determination, the “Allocable Amount” of any Borrower shall be equal to the maximum amount of the claim that could then be recovered from such Borrower under this Section 11.28 without rendering such claim voidable or avoidable under Section 548 of Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code or under any applicable state Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act, Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act or similar statute or common law.
(iii) This Section 11.28(g) is intended only to define the relative rights of Borrowers and nothing set forth in this Section 11.28(g) is intended to or shall impair the obligations of Borrowers, jointly and severally, to pay any amounts as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, including Section 11.28(a) above. Nothing contained in this Section 11.28(g) shall limit the liability of any Borrower to pay all or any part of the Loans made directly or indirectly to that Borrower and accrued interest, fees and expenses with respect thereto for which such Borrower shall be primarily liable.
(iv) The parties hereto acknowledge that the rights of contribution and indemnification hereunder shall constitute assets of the Borrower to which such contribution and indemnification is owing.
(v) The rights of the indemnifying Borrowers against other Borrowers under this Section 11.28(g) shall be exercisable upon the full and indefeasible payment of the Obligations.
(h) Liability Cumulative. The liability of Borrowers under this Section 11.28 is in addition to and shall be cumulative with all liabilities of each Borrower to Agent and Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which such Borrower is a party or in respect of any Obligations or obligation of the other Borrower, without any limitation as to amount, unless the instrument or agreement evidencing or creating such other liability specifically provides to the contrary.
(i) Agent Authority. Agent is hereby authorized, without notice or demand and without affecting the liability of any Borrower hereunder, to, at any time and from time to time: (i) renew, extend or otherwise increase the time for payment of the Obligations; (ii) with the written agreement of any Borrower, accelerate or otherwise change the terms relating to the Obligations or otherwise modify, amend or change the terms of any promissory note or other agreement, document or instrument now or hereafter executed by such Borrower and delivered to Agent; (iii) accept partial payments of the Obligations; (iv) take and hold security or collateral for the payment of the Obligations or for the payment of any guaranties of the Obligations and exchange, enforce, waive and release any such security or collateral; (v) subject to the terms of the Notes and this Agreement, apply such security or collateral and direct the order or manner of sale thereof that Agent, in its sole discretion, may determine; and (vi) settle, release, compromise, collect or otherwise liquidate the Obligations and any security or collateral therefor in any manner, without affecting or impairing the obligations of any Borrower. Except as specifically provided in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, Agent shall have the exclusive right to determine the time and manner of application of any payments or credits, whether received from any Borrower or any other source, and such determination shall be binding on all Borrowers. Subject to the terms of the Notes and this Agreement, all such payments and credits may be applied, reversed and reapplied, in whole or in part, to any of the Obligations that Agent shall determine in its sole discretion without affecting the validity or enforceability of the Obligations of the other Borrowers.

 

-65-


 

Section 11.29 Agency.
Both GECC and the other Lender agree that GECC shall act as agent for each Lender in all dealings with Borrowers, Guarantor and Master Tenants under or in connection with this Loan Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents, including without limitation, granting any consents or waivers, taking any enforcements actions, sending or receiving notices, dealing with collateral, granting releases, accepting payments or otherwise. Borrowers, Guarantor, Master Tenants and all Loan Parties may rely without question upon any document signed by GECC as agent for each Lender hereunder or under any other Loan Documents. References to “Lender” in this Agreement and in the other Loan Documents shall refer to each of GECC and the other financial institutions who are or hereafter become parties to this Agreement as Lenders, individually, or to all of GECC and the other financial institutions who are or hereafter become parties to this Agreement, collectively, as the context may require; provided any and all grants of security interests to a Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be deemed to be a grant to GECC as agent for each Lender.
Section 11.30 Patriot Act. Agent hereby notifies the Loan Parties that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Loan Party, which information includes the name and address of each Loan Party and other information that will allow Agent to identify each Loan Party in accordance with the Patriot Act.
Section 11.31 California Waivers. EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY PERMITTED IN THE NOTES, THE LOAN AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, EACH BORROWER HEREBY EXPRESSLY (A) WAIVES ANY RIGHTS IT MAY HAVE UNDER LAW, PURSUANT TO CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTION 2954.10 OR OTHERWISE, TO PREPAY THE NOTES, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, WITHOUT PENALTY, UPON ACCELERATION OF ANY APPLICABLE MATURITY DATE, AND (B) AGREES THAT IF, FOR ANY REASON, A PREPAYMENT OF ALL OR ANY PORTION OF THE PRINCIPAL AMOUNT OF (I) THE PRE-RESTATMENT DATE NOTE IS MADE, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, UPON OR FOLLOWING ANY ACCELERATION OF THE TEN PROJECT LOANS MATURITY DATE BY AGENT OR LENDER ON ACCOUNT OF ANY DEFAULT BY ANY BORROWER, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY TRANSFER, DISPOSITION, OR FURTHER ENCUMBRANCE PROHIBITED OR RESTRICTED BY THE LOAN AGREEMENT, THEN EACH TEN PROJECT BORROWER SHALL BE OBLIGATED TO PAY CONCURRENTLY WITH SUCH PREPAYMENT THE PREPAYMENT PREMIUM AND THE MAKE WHOLE BREAKAGE AMOUNT, IF ANY, AND (II) THE RESTATMENT DATE NOTE IS MADE, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, UPON OR FOLLOWING ANY ACCELERATION OF THE SIX PROJECT LOAN MATURITY DATE BY AGENT OR LENDER ON ACCOUNT OF ANY DEFAULT BY ANY BORROWER, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY TRANSFER, DISPOSITION, OR FURTHER ENCUMBRANCE

 

-66-


 

PROHIBITED OR RESTRICTED BY THE LOAN AGREEMENT, THEN EACH SIX PROJECT BORROWER SHALL BE OBLIGATED TO PAY CONCURRENTLY WITH SUCH PREPAYMENT THE EXIT FEE, IF ANY. BY INITIALING THIS PROVISION IN THE SPACE PROVIDED BELOW, EACH BORROWER HEREBY DECLARES THAT (1) EACH OF THE FACTUAL MATTERS SET FORTH IN THIS PARAGRAPH IS TRUE AND CORRECT, (2) LENDER’S AGREEMENT TO MAKE THE LOANS EVIDENCED BY THE NOTES AT THE APPLICABLE INTEREST RATE AND FOR THE TERM SET FORTH IN THE LOAN AGREEMENT CONSTITUTES ADEQUATE CONSIDERATION FOR THIS WAIVER AND AGREEMENT, AND HAS BEEN GIVEN INDIVIDUAL WEIGHT BY EACH BORROWER, AGENT AND LENDER, (3) EACH BORROWER IS A SOPHISTICATED AND KNOWLEDGEABLE REAL ESTATE INVESTOR WITH COMPETENT AND INDEPENDENT LEGAL COUNSEL, AND (4) EACH BORROWER FULLY UNDERSTANDS THE EFFECT OF THIS WAIVER AND AGREEMENT.
INITIALS OF DANIEL H. WALKER ON BEHALF OF EACH BORROWER:                     .
Section 11.32 Additional Waivers.
Each Borrower hereby waives, to the maximum extent permitted by California Civil Code Section 2856 and/or other applicable law, all suretyship rights and defenses which might otherwise be available to such Borrower under or pursuant to California Civil Code Sections 2787 through 2855 inclusive.
(a) Each Borrower hereby waives all rights and defenses that such Borrower may have because the Borrowers’ debt is secured by real property. This means, among other things:
(A) Agent may collect from any Borrower without first foreclosing on any real or personal property collateral pledged by the other Borrowers;
(B) If Agent forecloses on any real property collateral pledged by the Borrowers:
(1) The amount of the debt 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.
(2) Agent may collect from such Borrower even if Agent, by foreclosing on the real property collateral, has destroyed any right such Borrower may have to collect from other Borrowers.
This is an unconditional and irrevocable waiver of any rights and defenses Borrowers may have because the Borrowers’ debt is secured by real property. These rights and defenses include, but are not limited to, any rights or defenses based upon Section 580a, 580b, 580d or 726 of the California Code of Civil Procedure.

 

-67-


 

(b) Each Borrower hereby waives all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies by Agent or Lender, even though that election of remedies, such as non-judicial foreclosure with respect to security for a guaranteed obligation, has destroyed Borrowers’ rights of subrogation and reimbursement against Borrowers by the operation of Section 580d of the California Code of Civil Procedure or otherwise.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Borrower hereby expressly: (a) waives any and all benefits which might otherwise be available to it under California Civil Code Sections 2809, 2810, 2819, 2839, 2845 through 2847, 2849, 2850, 2899 and 3433, and California Code of Civil Procedure Sections 580a, 580b, 580d and 726, or any similar statutes of other states; (b) acknowledges that Section 2856 of the California Civil Code authorizes and validates waivers of a borrower’s or guarantor’s rights of subrogation and reimbursement and certain other rights and defenses available to such Borrower under California law; and (c) waives all rights of subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification and contribution and all other rights and defenses that are or may become available by reason of Sections 2787 to 2855, inclusive, of the California Civil Code.
Section 11.33 Arizona Waiver.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing or any other provision hereof, each Borrower further expressly waives, to the extent permitted by law, (i) the benefits of any statutory or other provision limiting the liability of a surety, including without limitation, any and all rights and defenses which might otherwise be available to Borrowers under Arizona Revised Statutes Section 121641 et seq. and Rule 17(f) of the Arizona Rules of Civil Procedure; and (b) the benefits of any statutory provision limiting the right of Agent or Lender to recover a deficiency judgment, or to otherwise proceed against any person or entity obligated for payment of the Indebtedness, after any foreclosure or trustee’s sale of any security for the Indebtedness, including without limitation the benefits to Borrowers of Arizona Revised Statutes Sections 33 814 and 12 1566.

13. Each Owner shall require each Person that proposes to become a holder of any direct interest in Borrowers or of any controlling ownership interest in Owner to sign an agreement substantially in the form of this Agreement and to deliver the same to Borrowers.
