1.3 Principles of Construction. Unless otherwise specified, (i) all references to sections and schedules are to those in this Agreement, (ii) the words “hereof,” “herein” and “hereunder” and words of similar import refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision, (iii) all definitions are equally applicable to the singular and plural forms of the terms defined, (iv) the word “including” means “including but not limited to,” and (v) accounting terms not specifically defined herein shall be construed in accordance with GAAP.

2. GENERAL LOAN TERMS

2.1 The Loan. Lender is making a loan (the “Loan”) to Borrower on the date hereof, in the original principal amount (the “Principal”) of $121,000,000, which shall mature on the Stated Maturity Date. Borrower acknowledges receipt of the Loan, the proceeds of which are being and shall be used to (i) acquire the Property, (ii) fund certain of the Subaccounts, and (iii) pay transaction costs. Any excess proceeds may be used for any lawful purpose. No amount repaid in respect of the Loan may be reborrowed.

2.2 Interest; Monthly Payments.

2.2.1 Generally. From and after the date hereof, interest on the unpaid Principal shall accrue at the Interest Rate and be payable as hereinafter provided. On the date hereof, Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid Principal from the date hereof through and including July 5, 2006. On August 6, 2006 and each Payment Date thereafter through and

 

19


including the Payment Date immediately preceding the Amortization Commencement Date, Borrower shall pay interest only on the unpaid Principal accrued at the Interest Rate during the Interest Period immediately preceding such Payment Date (the “Monthly Interest Payment Amount”). On the Amortization Commencement Date and each Payment Date thereafter through and including June 6, 2016, the Principal and interest thereon at the Interest Rate shall be payable in equal monthly installments of $737,557.81 (the “Monthly Debt Service Payment Amount”); which is based on the Interest Rate and a 360-month amortization schedule; provided, however, in the event that Borrower prepays a portion of the Loan in accordance with Section 2.3.4(b), and the Interest Rate is thereby reduced to 5.805% (as set forth in Section 2.3.4(b)), then the Monthly Debt Service Payment Amount shall accordingly be reduced to $363,984.32. The Monthly Debt Service Payment Amount due on any Payment Date shall first be applied to the payment of interest accrued during the preceding Interest Period and the remainder of such Monthly Debt Service Payment Amount shall be applied to the reduction of the unpaid Principal. All accrued and unpaid interest shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date. If the Loan is repaid on any date other than on a Payment Date (whether prior to or after the Stated Maturity Date), Borrower shall also pay interest that would have accrued on such repaid Principal to but not including the next Payment Date.

2.2.2 Default Rate. After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the entire unpaid Debt shall bear interest at the Default Rate, and shall be payable upon demand from time to time, to the extent permitted by applicable law.

2.2.3 Taxes. Any and all payments by Borrower hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding taxes imposed on Lender’s income, and franchise taxes imposed on Lender by the law or regulation of any Governmental Authority (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities being hereinafter referred to in this Section 2.2.3 as “Applicable Taxes”). If Borrower shall be required by law to deduct any Applicable Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to Lender, the following shall apply: (i) the sum payable shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.2.3), Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law. Payments pursuant to this Section 2.2.3 shall be made within ten (10) days after the date Lender makes written demand therefor.

2.2.4 New Payment Date. Lender shall have the right, to be exercised not more than once during the term of the Loan, to change the Payment Date to a date later than the sixth day of each month (a “New Payment Date”), on thirty (30) days’ written notice to Borrower; provided, however, that any such change in the Payment Date: (i) shall not modify the amount of regularly scheduled monthly interest and principal (if applicable) payments, except that the first payment of interest and principal (if applicable) payable on the New Payment Date shall be accompanied by interest at the interest rate herein provided for the period from the Payment Date in the month in which the New Payment Date first occurs to the New Payment Date, (ii) shall change the Stated Maturity Date to the New Payment Date occurring in the month set forth in the

 

20


definition of Stated Maturity Date; and (iii) shall extend the Amortization Commencement Date to the New Payment Date occurring in the month set forth in the definition of Amortization Commencement Date.

2.3 Loan Repayment.

2.3.1 Repayment. Borrower shall repay the entire outstanding principal balance of the Note in full on the Maturity Date, together with interest thereon to (but excluding) the date of repayment and any other amounts due and owing under the Loan Documents. Borrower shall have no right to prepay or defease all or any portion of the Principal except in accordance with Section 2.3.2 below, Section 2.3.3 below and Section 2.4 below. Except during the continuance of an Event of Default, all proceeds of any repayment, including any prepayments of the Loan, shall be applied by Lender as follows in the following order of priority: First, accrued and unpaid interest at the Interest Rate; Second, to Principal; and Third, to and any other amounts then due and owing under the Loan Documents. If prior to the Stated Maturity Date the Debt is accelerated by reason of an Event of Default, then Lender shall be entitled to receive, in addition to the unpaid Principal and accrued interest and other sums due under the Loan Documents, an amount equal to the Yield Maintenance Premium applicable to such Principal so accelerated. During the continuance of an Event of Default, all proceeds of repayment, including any payment or recovery on the Property (whether through foreclosure, deed-in-lieu of foreclosure, or otherwise) shall, unless otherwise provided in the Loan Documents, be applied in such order and in such manner as Lender shall elect in Lender’s discretion.

2.3.2 Mandatory Prepayments. The Loan is subject to mandatory prepayment in certain instances of Insured Casualty or Condemnation (each a “Casualty/Condemnation Prepayment”), in the manner and to the extent set forth in Section 7.4.2 hereof. Each Casualty/Condemnation Prepayment, after deducting Lender’s costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) in connection with the settlement or collection of the Proceeds or Award, shall be applied in the same manner as repayments under Section 2.3.1 above, and if such Casualty/Condemnation Payment is made on any date other than a Payment Date, then such Casualty/Condemnation Payment shall include interest that would have accrued on the Principal prepaid to but not including the next Payment Date. Provided that no Event of Default is continuing, any such mandatory prepayment under this Section 2.3.2 shall be without the payment of the Yield Maintenance Premium. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, each Casualty/Condemnation Prepayment shall be applied in inverse order of maturity and shall not extend or postpone the due dates of the monthly installments due under the Note or this Agreement, or change the amounts of such installments.

2.3.3 Defeasance

(a) Conditions to Defeasance. Provided no Event of Default shall be continuing, Borrower shall have the right on any Payment Date after the Release Date and prior to the Permitted Prepayment Date to voluntarily defease the entire amount of the Principal and obtain a release of the Lien of the Mortgage by providing Lender with the Defeasance Collateral (a “Defeasance Event”), subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions precedent:

 

21


(i) Borrower shall give Lender not less than thirty (30) days prior written notice specifying a Payment Date (the “Defeasance Date”) on which the Defeasance Event is to occur.

(ii) Borrower shall pay to Lender (A) all payments of Principal and interest due on the Loan to and including the Defeasance Date and (B) all other sums, then due under the Note, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents;

(iii) Borrower shall deposit the Defeasance Collateral into the Defeasance Collateral Account and otherwise comply with the provisions of subsections (b) and (c) of this Section 2.3.3;

(iv) Borrower shall execute and deliver to Lender a Security Agreement in respect of the Defeasance Collateral Account and the Defeasance Collateral;

(v) Borrower shall deliver to Lender an opinion of counsel for Borrower that is standard in commercial lending transactions and subject only to customary qualifications, assumptions and exceptions opining, among other things, that (i) Lender has a legal and valid perfected first priority security interest in the Defeasance Collateral Account and the Defeasance Collateral, (ii) if a Securitization has occurred, the REMIC Trust formed pursuant to such Securitization will not fail to maintain its status as a “real estate mortgage investment conduit” within the meaning of Section 860D of the Code as a result of a Defeasance Event pursuant to this Section 2.3.3, (iii) the Defeasance Event will not result in a significant modification and will not be an exchange of the Note for purposes of Section 1001 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder, (iv) delivery of the Defeasance Collateral and the grant of a security interest therein to Lender shall not constitute a voidable preference under Section 547 of the Bankruptcy Code or applicable state law and (v) a non-consolidation opinion with respect to the Successor Borrower;

(vi) if required by any Rating Agency, Borrower shall deliver to Lender and the Rating Agencies a Rating Comfort Letter as to the Defeasance Event;

(vii) Borrower shall deliver an Officer’s Certificate certifying that the requirements set forth in this Section 2.3.3 have been satisfied;

(viii) Borrower shall deliver a certificate of a nationally recognized public accounting firm acceptable to Lender certifying that (A) the Defeasance Collateral will generate monthly amounts equal to or greater than the Scheduled Defeasance Payments, (B) the revenue from the Defeasance Collateral will be applied within four (4) months of receipt towards payments of Debt Service, (C) the securities that comprise the Defeasance Collateral are not subject to prepayment, call or early redemption and (D) the interest income to Borrower (or the Successor Borrower, if applicable) from the Defeasance Collateral will not in any tax year exceed the interest expense associated with the defeased Loan;

(ix) Borrower shall deliver such other certificates, opinions, documents and instruments as Lender may reasonably request;

 

22


(x) Borrower shall pay all costs and expenses of Lender incurred in connection with the Defeasance Event, including Lender’s reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses and Rating Agency fees and expenses; and

(xi) All conditions with respect to the defeasance of the Approved Mezzanine Loan, if any (as set forth in the Approved Mezzanine Loan Documents) shall have been satisfied.

(b) Defeasance Collateral Account. On or before the date on which Borrower delivers the Defeasance Collateral, Borrower shall open at any Eligible Institution the defeasance collateral account (the “Defeasance Collateral Account”) which shall at all times be an Eligible Account. The Defeasance Collateral Account shall contain only (i) Defeasance Collateral, and (ii) cash from interest and principal paid on the Defeasance Collateral. All cash from interest and principal payments paid on the Defeasance Collateral shall be paid over to Lender on each Payment Date and applied first to accrued and unpaid interest and then to Principal. Any cash from interest and principal paid on the Defeasance Collateral not needed to pay accrued and unpaid interest or Principal shall be retained in the Defeasance Collateral Account as additional collateral for the Loan. Borrower shall cause the Eligible Institution at which the Defeasance Collateral is deposited to enter an agreement with Borrower and Lender, satisfactory to Lender in its sole discretion, pursuant to which such Eligible Institution shall agree to hold and distribute the Defeasance Collateral in accordance with this Agreement. The Successor Borrower shall be the owner of the Defeasance Collateral Account and shall report all income accrued on Defeasance Collateral for federal, state and local income tax purposes in its income tax return. Borrower shall prepay all cost and expenses associated with opening and maintaining the Defeasance Collateral Account. Lender shall not in any way be liable by reason of any insufficiency in the Defeasance Collateral Account.

(c) Successor Borrower. In connection with a Defeasance Event under this Section 2.3.3, Borrower shall, if required by the Rating Agencies or if Borrower elects to do so, establish or designate a successor entity (the “Successor Borrower”) which shall be a Special Purpose Bankruptcy Remote Entity and which shall be approved by the Rating Agencies. Any such Successor Borrower may, at Borrower’s option, be an Affiliate of Borrower unless the Rating Agencies shall require otherwise. Borrower shall transfer and assign all obligations, rights and duties under and to the Defeased Note, together with the Defeasance Collateral to such Successor Borrower. Such Successor Borrower shall assume the obligations under the Note and the Security Agreement and Borrower shall be relieved of its obligations under such documents. Borrower shall pay a minimum of $1,000 to any such Successor Borrower as consideration for assuming the obligations under the Note and the Security Agreement. Borrower shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses reasonably incurred by Lender, including Lender’s reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses, reasonably incurred in connection therewith.

2.3.4 Optional Prepayments. (a) From and after the third Payment Date prior to the Stated Maturity Date (the “Permitted Prepayment Date”), Borrower shall have the right to prepay the Loan in whole (but not in part), provided that Borrower gives Lender at least fifteen (15) days’ prior written notice thereof. If any such prepayment is not made on a Payment Date, Borrower shall also pay interest that would have accrued on such prepaid Principal to, but not including, the next Payment Date. Any such prepayment shall be made without payment of the Yield Maintenance Premium.

 

23


(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Borrower shall have the right (in Borrower’s sole and absolute discretion) at any time prior to September 15, 2006 to prepay a $59,000,000 portion of the Loan (such that, after giving effect to such partial prepayment, the outstanding Principal balance of the Loan will be reduced to $62,000,000), provided that Borrower gives Lender at least fifteen (15) days’ prior written notice thereof. Any such prepayment shall be made without payment of the Yield Maintenance Premium. Upon such prepayment the Interest Rate shall automatically be reduced to 5.805%.

2.4 Release of Property.

2.4.1 Release on Defeasance. If Borrower has elected to defease the Note and the requirements of Section 2.3.3 above and this Section 2.4 have been satisfied, the Property shall be released from the Lien of the Mortgage and the Defeasance Collateral pledged pursuant to the Security Agreement shall be the sole source of collateral securing the Note. In connection with the release of the Lien, Borrower shall submit to Lender, not less than thirty (30) days prior to the Defeasance Date (or such shorter time as is acceptable to Lender in its sole discretion), a release of Lien (and related Loan Documents) for execution by Lender. Such release shall be in a form appropriate in the jurisdiction in which the Property is located and contain standard provisions protecting the rights of the releasing lender. In addition, Borrower shall provide all other documentation Lender reasonably requires to be delivered by Borrower in connection with such release, together with an Officer’s Certificate certifying that such documentation (i) is in compliance with all Legal Requirements, and (ii) will effect such release in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Borrower shall pay all costs, taxes and expenses associated with the release of the Lien of the Mortgage, including Lender’s reasonable attorneys’ fees.

2.4.2 Release on Payment in Full. Lender shall, upon the written request and at the expense of Borrower, upon payment in full of the Debt in accordance herewith, release or, if requested by Borrower, assign to Borrower’s designee (without any representation or warranty by and without any recourse against Lender whatsoever), the Lien of the Loan Documents if not theretofore released.

2.5 Payments and Computations.

2.5.1 Making of Payments. Each payment by Borrower shall be made in funds settled through the New York Clearing House Interbank Payments System or other funds immediately available to Lender by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date such payment is due, to Lender by deposit to such account as Lender may designate by written notice to Borrower. Whenever any such payment shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the first Business Day thereafter. All such payments shall be made irrespective of, and without any deduction, set-off or counterclaim whatsoever and are payable without relief from valuation and appraisement laws and with all costs and charges incurred in the collection or enforcement thereof, including attorneys’ fees and court costs.

 

24


2.5.2 Computations. Interest payable under the Loan Documents shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a 360-day year.

2.5.3 Late Payment Charge. If any Principal, interest or other sum due under any Loan Document is not paid by Borrower on the date on which it is due (other than the balloon payment of Principal due on the Maturity Date or acceleration of the Loan), Borrower shall pay to Lender upon demand an amount equal to the lesser of five percent (5%) of such unpaid sum or the maximum amount permitted by applicable law (the “Late Payment Charge”), in order to defray the expense incurred by Lender in handling and processing such delinquent payment and to compensate Lender for the loss of the use of such delinquent payment. Such amount shall be secured by the Loan Documents. Provided no Event of Default is then continuing, no Late Payment Charge shall apply if adequate funds are available in the Deposit Account for any such Principal, interest or other sums due under any Loan Document and the Deposit Bank fails to allocate such funds in accordance with the Loan Documents.

3. CASH MANAGEMENT AND RESERVES

3.1 Cash Management Arrangements. Borrower shall cause all Rents to be transmitted directly by non-residential tenants of the Property into an Eligible Account (the “Clearing Account”) maintained by Borrower at a bank selected by Borrower, which shall at all times be an Eligible Institution (the “Clearing Bank”) as more fully described in the Clearing Account Agreement. Without in any way limiting the foregoing, all Rents received by Borrower or Manager shall be deposited into the Clearing Account within three (3) Business Days of receipt. Funds deposited into the Clearing Account shall be swept by the Clearing Bank on a weekly basis into Borrower’s operating account at the Clearing Bank, unless a Cash Management Period is continuing, in which event such funds shall be swept on a daily basis into an Eligible Account at the Deposit Bank controlled by Lender (the “Deposit Account”) and applied and disbursed in accordance with this Agreement. Funds in the Deposit Account shall be invested at Borrower’s discretion only in Permitted Investments. Lender will also establish subaccounts of the Deposit Account which shall at all times be Eligible Accounts (and may be ledger or book entry accounts and not actual accounts) (such subaccounts are referred to herein as “Subaccounts”). The Deposit Account and any Subaccount will be under the sole control and dominion of Lender, and Borrower shall have no right of withdrawal therefrom. Borrower shall pay for all expenses of opening and maintaining all of the above accounts.

3.2 Intentionally Omitted.

3.3 Taxes and Insurance. (a) Borrower shall pay to Lender on each Payment Date (i) one-twelfth (1/12th) of the Taxes that Lender reasonably estimates will be payable during the next twelve (12) months in order to accumulate with Lender sufficient funds to pay all such Taxes at least thirty (30) days prior to their respective due dates and (ii) one-twelfth (1/12th) of the Insurance Premiums that Lender estimates will be payable for the renewal of the coverage afforded by the Policies upon the expiration thereof in order to accumulate with Lender sufficient funds to pay all such Insurance Premiums at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the Policies. Such amounts will be transferred by Lender to a Subaccount (the “Tax and Insurance Subaccount”). Lender will (a) apply funds in the Tax and Insurance Subaccount to payments of Taxes and Insurance Premiums required to be made by Borrower pursuant to Section 5.2 hereof

 

25


and Section 7.1 hereof, provided that Borrower has promptly supplied Lender with notices of all Taxes and Insurance Premiums due, or (b) reimburse Borrower for such amounts upon presentation of evidence of payment; subject, however, to Borrower’s right to contest Taxes in accordance with Section 5.2 hereof. In making any payment relating to Taxes and Insurance Premiums, Lender may do so according to any bill, statement or estimate procured from the appropriate public office (with respect to Taxes) or insurer or agent (with respect to Insurance Premiums), without inquiry into the accuracy of such bill, statement or estimate or into the validity of any tax, assessment, sale, forfeiture, tax lien or title or claim thereof. If Lender determines in its reasonable judgment that the funds in the Tax and Insurance Subaccount will be insufficient to pay (or in excess of) the Taxes or Insurance Premiums next coming due, Lender may increase (or decrease) the monthly contribution required to be made by Borrower to the Tax and Insurance Subaccount.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, it is understood and agreed that for so long as Building 1 (which is part of the Property) and Building 4 (which is part of the Other Property) share part of the same tax lot, the amount to be paid pursuant to clause (i) of subsection (a) above (with respect to Building 1) shall be calculated based on the entirety of such tax lot (inclusive of Building 4); provided, that once Borrower provides evidence to Lender that Building 1 and Building 4 no longer share a single tax lot, Lender shall promptly return to Borrower any excess amounts then on deposit in the Tax and Insurance Subaccount that have been deposited therein on account of Building 4.

3.4 Capital Expense Reserves. (a) Subject to the provisions of subsection (b) below, Borrower shall pay to Lender on each Payment Date an amount initially equal to one-twelfth (1/12th) of the product obtained by multiplying $0.20 by the aggregate number of rentable square feet of space in the Property. Lender will transfer such amounts into a Subaccount (the “Capital Reserve Subaccount”). Additionally, upon thirty (30) days’ prior notice to Borrower, Lender may reassess the amount of the monthly payment required under this Section 3.4 not more than once every six (6) months (based upon its then current underwriting standards); provided, however that Lender shall only increase the amount of such monthly contributions if Lender reasonably determines that such increase is necessary to address unanticipated material changes after the date hereof in the anticipated Capital Expenses for the Property (in which event such reassessment shall be limited to address only such issues). Provided that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Lender shall disburse funds held in the Capital Reserve Subaccount to Borrower, within ten (10) days after the delivery by Borrower to Lender of a request therefor (but not more often than once per month), in increments of at least $5,000 provided that (i) such disbursement is for an Approved Capital Expense; (ii) Lender shall have (if it desires) verified (by an inspection conducted at Borrower’s expense) performance of the work associated with such Approved Capital Expense; and (iii) the request for disbursement is accompanied by (A) an Officer’s Certificate certifying (1) that such funds will be used to pay or reimburse Borrower for Approved Capital Expenses and a description thereof, (2) that all outstanding trade payables (other than those to be paid from the requested disbursement or those constituting Permitted Indebtedness) have been paid in full, (3) that the same has not been the subject of a previous disbursement, and (4) that all previous disbursements have been used to pay the previously identified Approved Capital Expenses, and (B) lien waivers or other evidence of payment satisfactory to Lender, (C) at Lender’s option, with respect to disbursements in excess of $100,000, a title search for the Property indicating that the Property is free from all Liens,

 

26


claims and other encumbrances not previously approved by Lender and (D) such other evidence as Lender shall reasonably request that the Approved Capital Expenses at the Property to be funded by the requested disbursement have been completed and are paid for or will be paid upon such disbursement to Borrower. Any such disbursement of more than $10,000 to pay (rather than reimburse) Approved Capital Expenses may, at Lender’s option, be made by joint check payable to Borrower and the payee on such Approved Capital Expenses.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in subsection (a) above, Borrower shall not be required to make any payments into the Capital Reserve Subaccount pursuant to subsection (a) above at any time that an Event of Default has not occurred and is continuing.

3.5 Rollover Reserves

3.5.1 General

(a) Borrower shall pay to Lender $512,097.10 (the “Initial Rollover Deposit”), and Lender will transfer such amount into a Subaccount (the “Rollover Reserve Subaccount”). On each Payment Date occurring during the continuance of a Lease Sweep Period (provided no Cash Management Period is then continuing (other than a Cash Management Period triggered solely as a result of a Lease Sweep Period)), all Available Cash shall be paid to Lender, and Lender will transfer such amount into the Rollover Reserve Subaccount. Borrower shall also pay to Lender for transfer into the Rollover Reserve Subaccount all Lease Termination Payments received by Borrower. Provided that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Lender shall disburse funds held in the Rollover Reserve Subaccount to Borrower, within ten (10) days after the delivery by Borrower to Lender of a request therefor (but not more often than once per month), in increments of at least $5,000, provided (i) such disbursement is for an Approved Major Lease Leasing Expense (or any other Approved Leasing Expense if the funds in question are comprised of Lease Termination Payments that have been deposited into the Rollover Reserve Subaccount on account of any other Lease); (ii) Lender shall have (if it desires) verified (by an inspection conducted at Borrower’s expense) performance of any construction work associated with such Approved Major Lease Leasing Expense (or any other Approved Leasing Expense if the funds in question are comprised of Lease Termination Payments that have been deposited into the Rollover Reserve Subaccount on account of any other Lease); and (iii) the request for disbursement is accompanied by (A) an Officer’s Certificate certifying (1) that such funds will be used only to pay (or reimburse Borrower for) Approved Major Lease Leasing Expenses (or any other Approved Leasing Expense if the funds in question are comprised of Lease Termination Payments that have been deposited into the Rollover Reserve Subaccount on account of any other Lease) and a description thereof, (2) that all outstanding trade payables (other than those to be paid from the requested disbursement or those constituting Permitted Indebtedness) have been paid in full, (3) that the same has not been the subject of a previous disbursement, and (4) that all previous disbursements have been used only to pay (or reimburse Borrower for) the previously identified Approved Major Lease Leasing Expenses (or any other Approved Leasing Expense if the funds in question are comprised of Lease Termination Payments that have been deposited into the Rollover Reserve Subaccount on account of any other Lease), and (B) reasonably detailed supporting documentation as to the amount, necessity and purpose therefor. Any such disbursement of more than $10,000 to pay (rather than reimburse) Approved Leasing Expenses may, at Lender’s option, be made by joint

 

27


check payable to Borrower and the payee of such Approved Major Lease Leasing Expenses (or any other Approved Leasing Expense if the funds in question are comprised of Lease Termination Payments that have been deposited into the Rollover Reserve Subaccount on account of any other Lease). Provided no Event of Default is continuing, upon the termination of the subject Lease Sweep Period, and Lender’s receipt of satisfactory evidence that all Approved Major Lease Leasing Expenses incurred in connection therewith (and any other expenses in connection with the re-tenanting of the applicable space) have been paid in full (which evidence may include (i) a letter or certification from the applicable broker, if any, that all brokerage commissions payable in connection therewith have been paid and (ii) an estoppel certificate executed by each applicable tenant which certifies that all contingencies under such Lease to the payment of full rent (including Borrower’s contribution to the cost of any tenant improvement work) have been satisfied), any funds (if any) remaining in the Rollover Reserve Subaccount that have been deposited therein as a result of such Lease Sweep Period shall be disbursed to Borrower; provided, however, if a Cash Management Period is then continuing, then no such funds shall be disbursed to Borrower, and all such funds shall instead be deposited into the Cash Collateral Subaccount, to be applied in accordance with Section 3.9 hereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 3.5, funds constituting the Initial Rollover Deposit shall be allocated to pay only Approved Leasing Expenses payable in connection with the Halliburton Leases (in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 3.5.1(a)).

(b) Any Lease Termination Payments and any other funds deposited into the Rollover Reserve Subaccount from the Security Deposit Subaccount in accordance with Section 3.8 hereof shall be applied, at Lender’s election, towards either (a) subject to the rights of Borrower under the applicable Lease, rent arrearages under such Lease (or to cure any other tenant default under such Lease), (b) debt service shortfalls that may arise as a result of a termination of such Lease (and Borrower hereby authorizes Lender to disburse to itself any such amounts without any request therefor by Borrower) or (c) funding any Approved Leasing Expenses (or Approved Major Lease Leasing Expenses, if applicable) which are anticipated to occur in connection with the re-tenanting of the space under the Lease that was the subject of such termination (in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 3.5.1(a) above.

3.5.2 Rollover Letter of Credit. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 3.5.1, at Borrower’s option, Borrower may at any time deliver a Letter of Credit to Lender in an amount equal to the applicable Lease Sweep Rollover Amount (the “Rollover Letter of Credit”), which Rollover Letter of Credit shall be held by Lender subject to and in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3.5.2. Upon delivery by Borrower to Lender of the Rollover Letter of Credit, any funds that have been deposited into the Rollover Reserve Subaccount on account of the subject Lease Sweep Period shall be promptly returned to Borrower (and the subject Lease Sweep Period shall terminate). If Borrower fails to timely pay for any Approved Major Lease Leasing Expenses and such failure continues for ten (10) days after written notice from Lender, Lender shall have the right, but not the obligation, to draw on the Rollover Letter of Credit for purposes of making such payment of Approved Major Lease Leasing Expenses.

 

28


(b) Borrower may request that the Rollover Letter of Credit be drawn upon in increments of at least $50,000 for Approved Major Lease Leasing Expenses and, within ten (10) days of the delivery of such request (but not more often than once per month), Lender will transfer the amount of the requested funds for Approved Major Lease Leasing Expenses into the Rollover Reserve Subaccount, which funds will be disbursed to pay for Approved Major Lease Leasing Expenses in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in Section 3.5.1.

(c) The Rollover Letter of Credit delivered under this Section 3.5.2 shall be held by Lender as additional security for the payment of the Debt. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender shall have the right, at its option, to draw on the Rollover Letter of Credit and to either deposit all or any portion of the proceeds therefrom into the Rollover Reserve Subaccount (in which event, any such funds shall be disbursed to Borrower with respect to Approved Major Lease Leasing Expenses only upon the satisfaction of the requirements for disbursement set forth in Section 3.5.1), or to apply all or any portion of such proceeds to payment of the Debt in such order, proportion or priority as Lender may determine. Any such application to the Debt, after an Event of Default which remains uncured shall be subject to the Yield Maintenance Premium. On the Maturity Date, the Rollover Letter of Credit may be drawn upon by Lender and applied to any unpaid portion of the Debt.

(d) In addition to any other right Lender may have to draw upon the Rollover Letter of Credit pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Lender shall have the additional rights to draw in full the Rollover Letter of Credit: (i) if the Rollover Letter of Credit is an evergreen Letter of Credit, if Lender has received a notice from the issuing bank that the Rollover Letter of Credit will not be renewed and a substitute Rollover Letter of Credit is not provided at least thirty (30) days prior to the date on which the outstanding Rollover Letter of Credit is scheduled to expire; (ii) if the Rollover Letter of Credit has a stated expiration date, if Lender has not received a notice from the issuing bank that it has renewed the Rollover Letter of Credit at least thirty (30) days prior to the date on which such Rollover Letter of Credit is scheduled to expire and a substitute Rollover Letter of Credit is not provided at least thirty (30) days prior to the date on which the outstanding Rollover Letter of Credit is scheduled to expire; (iii) upon receipt of notice from the issuing bank that the Rollover Letter of Credit will be terminated (except if the termination of the Rollover Letter of Credit is permitted pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or a substitute Rollover Letter of Credit is provided); or (iv) if Lender has received notice that the bank issuing the Rollover Letter of Credit shall cease to be an Approved Bank and Borrower has not replaced such Rollover Letter of Credit with a Rollover Letter of Credit issued by an Approved Bank within ten (10) Business Days after written notice thereof from Lender to Borrower. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the above, Lender is not obligated to draw on the Rollover Letter of Credit upon the happening of an event specified in (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) above and shall not be liable for any losses sustained by Borrower due to the insolvency of the bank issuing the Rollover Letter of Credit.

(e) Provided no Event of Default is continuing, upon the re-tenanting of all of the space currently demised under the Major Lease that gave rise to the subject Lease Sweep Period pursuant to one or more replacement Leases approved by Lender and entered into in accordance with Section 5.10 hereof, and Lender’s receipt of reasonably satisfactory evidence that all Approved Major Lease Leasing Expenses incurred in connection therewith (and any other expenses in connection with the re-tenanting of such space) have been paid in full (which

 

29


evidence may include, (i) a letter or certification from the applicable broker, if any, that all brokerage commissions payable in connection therewith have been paid and (ii) an estoppel certificate executed by each applicable tenant which certifies that all contingencies under such Lease to the payment of full rent (including Borrower’s contribution to the cost of any tenant improvement work) have been satisfied), the Rollover Letter of Credit shall be promptly returned to Borrower. Additionally, upon Borrower’s delivery to Lender of evidence of payment of any portion of the subject Approved Major Lease Leasing Expenses, then Borrower shall be entitled to reduce the face amount of the Letter of Credit by such amount.

3.6 Operating Expense Subaccount. During a Cash Management Period, on each Payment Date, a portion of the Rents that have been deposited into the Deposit Account during the immediately preceding Interest Period in an amount equal to the monthly amount set forth in the Approved Operating Budget for the following month as being necessary for payment of Approved Operating Expenses at the Property for such month, shall be transferred into a Subaccount for the payment of Approved Operating Expenses (the “Operating Expense Subaccount”). Provided no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, on each Payment Date, Lender shall disburse to Borrower funds from the Operating Expense Subaccount in an amount equal to the monthly amount set forth in the Approved Operating Budget for the month in which such Payment Date occurs as being necessary for payment of Approved Operating Expenses at the Property for such month (plus any other amounts requested by Borrower for such month for payment of items constituting Approved Operating Expenses, which are not included in the Approved Operating Budget), which disbursement shall be made without any requirement for any Borrower request therefor or any Officer’s Certificate in connection therewith.

3.7 Casualty/Condemnation Subaccount. Borrower shall pay, or cause to be paid, to Lender all Proceeds or Awards due to any Casualty or Condemnation to be transferred to a Subaccount (the “Casualty/Condemnation Subaccount”) in accordance with the provisions of Article 7 hereof. All amounts in the Casualty/Condemnation Subaccount shall disbursed in accordance with the provisions of Article 7 hereof.

3.8 Security Deposits. Borrower shall keep and hold all security deposits under Leases in accordance with applicable Legal Requirements and at a separately designated account under Borrower’s control at the Clearing Bank (or in another Eligible Account at an Eligible Institution) (and in the case of a letter of credit, assigned with full power of attorney and executed sight drafts to Lender) so that the security deposits shall not be commingled with any other funds of Borrower (such account, the “Security Deposit Account”). After the occurrence of an Event of Default, Borrower shall, upon Lender’s request, if permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, turn over to Lender the security deposits (and any interest theretofore earned thereon) under Leases, to be held by Lender in a Subaccount (the “Security Deposit Subaccount”) subject to the terms of the Leases. After the occurrence of an Event of Default, Borrower shall also deliver to Lender (for deposit into the Security Deposit Subaccount) all amounts drawn under any letters of credit held by Borrower in lieu of cash security deposits. Security deposits held in the Security Deposit Subaccount will be released by Lender upon notice from Borrower together with such evidence as Lender may reasonably request that such security deposit is required to be returned to a tenant pursuant to the terms of a Lease. Any funds in the Security Deposit Subaccount which Borrower is permitted to retain pursuant to the applicable

 

30


provisions of any Lease which has expired or has been terminated, cancelled or surrendered shall be paid to Lender and transferred by Lender into the Rollover Reserve Subaccount, to be applied and disbursed in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.5 hereof. Any letter of credit or other instrument that Borrower receives in lieu of a cash security deposit under any Lease entered into after the date hereof shall (i) be maintained in full force and effect in the full amount unless replaced by a cash deposit as hereinabove described and (ii) if permitted pursuant to any Legal Requirements, name Lender as payee or mortgagee thereunder (or at Lender’s option, be fully assignable to Lender).

3.9 Cash Collateral Subaccount. If a Cash Management Period shall have commenced (other than a Cash Management Period triggered solely as a result of (i) a Lease Sweep Period or (ii) the existence of an Approved Mezzanine Loan), then on the immediately succeeding Payment Date and on each Payment Date thereafter during the continuance of such Cash Management Period, all Available Cash shall be paid to Lender, which amounts shall be transferred by Lender into a Subaccount (the “Cash Collateral Subaccount”) as cash collateral for the Debt. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Lease Sweep Period has occurred and is then continuing during the continuance of any Cash Management Period (other than a Cash Management Period triggered solely as a result of a Lease Sweep Period), Lender shall have the right (but not the obligation) to allocate any funds in the Cash Collateral Subaccount to the Rollover Reserve Subaccount to be applied in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 3.5.1 hereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if Borrower delivers to Lender an Officer’s Certificate (with supporting backup) at least three (3) Business Days prior to a Payment Date, stating that, as a result of advance payments of Rent by tenants (during any prior Interest Period), there will be a shortfall in the Deposit Account necessary to pay amounts specified in Section 3.11(a)(i) through (v) on the applicable Payment Date, then a portion of the funds then being held in the Cash Collateral Subaccount (up to the amount represented by such advance rental payments) shall be made available to pay such shortfall (and no Event of Default shall exist as a result thereof). Any funds in the Cash Collateral Account and not previously disbursed or applied shall be disbursed to Borrower upon the termination of such Cash Management Period. Lender shall have the right, but not the obligation, at any time during the continuance of an Event of Default, in its sole and absolute discretion to apply all sums then on deposit in the Cash Collateral Subaccount to the Debt, in such order and in such manner as Lender shall elect in its sole and absolute discretion, including to make a prepayment of Principal (together with the applicable Yield Maintenance Premium applicable thereto). Additionally, Lender shall have the right, but not the obligation, at any time subsequent to the third Calculation Date following the commencement of a DSCR Cash Management Period (whether or not an Event of Default is then continuing), in its sole and absolute discretion to apply all sums then on deposit in the Cash Collateral Subaccount towards a partial Defeasance of the Loan (together with any Defeasance costs associated therewith), and Borrower shall execute such documents and take such other actions necessary to satisfy the Defeasance requirements set forth in Section 2.3.3 hereof.

3.10 Grant of Security Interest; Application of Funds. As security for payment of the Debt and the performance by Borrower of all other terms, conditions and provisions of the Loan Documents, Borrower hereby pledges and assigns to Lender, and grants to Lender a security interest in, all Borrower’s right, title and interest in and to all Rents and in and to all payments to or monies held in the Clearing Account, the Deposit Account, all Subaccounts

 

31


created pursuant to this Agreement (collectively, the “Cash Management Accounts”). Borrower hereby grants to Lender a continuing security interest in, and agrees to hold in trust for the benefit of Lender, all Rents in its possession prior to the (i) payment of such Rents to Lender or (ii) deposit of such Rents into the Deposit Account. Borrower shall not, without obtaining the prior written consent of Lender, further pledge, assign or grant any security interest in any Cash Management Account, or permit any Lien to attach thereto, or any levy to be made thereon, or any UCC Financing Statements, except those naming Lender as the secured party, to be filed with respect thereto. This Agreement is, among other things, intended by the parties to be a security agreement for purposes of the UCC. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender may apply any sums in any Cash Management Account in any order and in any manner as Lender shall elect in Lender’s discretion without seeking the appointment of a receiver and without adversely affecting the rights of Lender to foreclose the Lien of the Mortgage or exercise its other rights under the Loan Documents. Cash Management Accounts shall not constitute trust funds and may be commingled with other monies held by Lender. All interest which accrues on the funds in any Cash Management Account (other than the Tax and Insurance Subaccount) shall accrue for the benefit of Borrower and shall be taxable to Borrower and shall be added to and disbursed in the same manner and under the same conditions as the principal sum on which said interest accrued. Upon repayment in full of the Debt, all remaining funds in the Subaccounts, if any, shall be promptly disbursed to Borrower.

3.11 Property Cash Flow Allocation.

(a) During any Cash Management Period, all Rents deposited into the Deposit Account during the immediately preceding Interest Period shall be applied on each Payment Date as follows in the following order of priority:

(i) First, to make payments into the Tax and Insurance Subaccount as required under Section 3.3 hereof;

(ii) Second, to pay the monthly portion of the fees charged by the Deposit Bank in accordance with the Deposit Account Agreement;

(iii) Third, to Lender to pay the Monthly Debt Service Payment Amount or the Monthly Interest Payment Amount, as the case may be, due on such Payment Date (plus, if applicable, interest at the Default Rate and all other amounts, other than those described under other clauses of this Section 3.11(a), then due to Lender under the Loan Documents);

(iv) Fourth, to make payments into the Capital Reserve Subaccount, if and as required under Section 3.4 hereof;

(v) Fifth, to make payments for Approved Operating Expenses as required under Section 3.6 hereof;

(vi) Sixth, during the continuance of a Lease Sweep Period (provided no other Cash Management Period is then continuing), to make payments in an amount equal to all remaining Available Cash on such Payment Date into the Rollover Reserve Subaccount in accordance with Section 3.5.1 hereof; and

 

32


(vii) Lastly, (A) during the continuance of a Cash Management Period other than a Cash Management Period triggered solely as a result of the existence of an Approved Mezzanine Loan, to make payments in an amount equal to all remaining Available Cash on such Payment Date into the Cash Collateral Subaccount in accordance with Section 3.9 and (B) during a Cash Management Period triggered solely as a result of an Approved Mezzanine Loan, payments to Borrower of any remaining amounts.

(b) The failure of Borrower to make all of the payments required under clauses (i) through (iv) of Section 3.11(a) above in full on each Payment Date shall constitute an Event of Default under this Agreement; provided, however, if adequate funds are available in the Deposit Account for such payments, the failure by the Deposit Bank to allocate such funds into the appropriate Subaccounts shall not constitute an Event of Default. Nothing herein, however, shall be construed to restrict Borrower from depositing its own funds (other than Rents) into the Deposit Account in order to fund any of the amounts required under clauses (i) through (iv) of Section 3.11(a) above (to the extent that the Rents previously deposited into the Deposit Account are insufficient for the same).

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 3.11, after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, Lender may apply all Rents deposited into the Deposit Account and other proceeds of repayment in such order and in such manner as Lender shall elect.

4.1 Organization; Special Purpose. Each of Borrower and the SPE Party has been duly organized and is validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the state of its formation, with requisite power and authority, and all rights, licenses, permits and authorizations, governmental or otherwise, necessary to own its properties and to transact the business in which it is now engaged.

The Loan Documents have been duly executed and delivered by Borrower and, to Borrower’s knowledge, constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of Borrower enforceable against Borrower in accordance with their respective terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws affecting rights of creditors generally, and general principles of equity. The Loan Documents are not subject to, and Borrower has not asserted, any right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense, including the defense of usury. No exercise of any of the terms of the Loan Documents, or any right thereunder, will render any Loan Document unenforceable.

 

33


4.3 No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents by Borrower and the transactions contemplated hereby will not conflict with or result in a breach of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any Lien (other than pursuant to the Loan Documents) upon any of the property of Borrower pursuant to the terms of, any agreement or instrument to which Borrower is a party or by which its property is subject, nor will such action result in any violation of the provisions of any statute or any order, rule or regulation of any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over Borrower or any of its properties. Borrower’s rights under the Licenses and the Management Agreement will not be adversely affected by the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents, Borrower’s performance thereunder, the recordation of the Mortgage, or the exercise of any remedies by Lender. Any consent, approval, authorization, order, registration or qualification of or with any Governmental Authority required for the execution, delivery and performance by Borrower of the Loan Documents has been obtained and is in full force and effect.

4.4 Litigation. There are no actions, suits or other proceedings at law or in equity by or before any Governmental Authority now pending or threatened against or affecting Borrower, the SPE Party, the Manager or the Property, which, if adversely determined, might materially adversely affect the condition (financial or otherwise) or business of Borrower (including the ability of Borrower to carry out its obligations under the Loan Documents), the SPE Party, Manager or the use, value, condition or ownership of the Property.

4.5 Agreements. Borrower is not a party to any agreement or instrument or subject to any restriction which might adversely affect Borrower or the Property, or Borrower’s business, properties, operations or condition, financial or otherwise. To Borrower’s knowledge, Borrower is not in default in any material respect in the performance, observance or fulfillment of any of the obligations, covenants or conditions contained in any Permitted Encumbrance or any other agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which it or the Property is bound.

4.6 Title. Borrower has good, marketable and indefeasible title in fee to the real property and good title to the balance of the Property, free and clear of all Liens except the Permitted Encumbrances. All transfer taxes, deed stamps, intangible taxes or other amounts in the nature of transfer taxes required to be paid by any Person under applicable Legal Requirements in connection with the transfer of the Property to Borrower have been paid. To Borrower’s knowledge, the Mortgage when properly recorded in the appropriate records, together with any UCC Financing Statements required to be filed in connection therewith, will create (i) a valid, perfected first priority lien on the Borrower’s interest in the Property and (ii) valid and perfected first priority security interests in and to, and perfected collateral assignments of, all personalty (including the Leases), all in accordance with the terms thereof, in each case subject only to any applicable Permitted Encumbrances. All mortgage, recording, stamp, intangible or other similar taxes required to be paid by any Person under applicable Legal Requirements in connection with the execution, delivery, recordation, filing, registration, perfection or enforcement of any of the Loan Documents have been paid. The Permitted Encumbrances do not materially adversely affect the value, operation or use of the Property, or Borrower’s ability to repay the Loan. No Condemnation or other proceeding has been commenced or, to Borrower’s knowledge, is contemplated with respect to all or part of the Property or for the relocation of roadways providing access to the Property. To Borrower’s knowledge, there are no claims for payment for work, labor or materials affecting the Property which are or may become a Lien prior to, or of equal priority with, the Liens created by the Loan Documents. To Borrower’s knowledge, there are no outstanding options to purchase or rights of first refusal affecting all or any portion of the Property. To Borrower’s

 

34


knowledge, the Survey does not fail to reflect any material matter affecting the Property or the title thereto. To Borrower’s knowledge, except as disclosed on the Survey, all of the Improvements included in determining the appraised value of the Property lie wholly within the boundaries and building restriction lines of the Property, and no improvement on an adjoining property encroaches upon the Property, and no easement or other encumbrance upon the Property encroaches upon any of the Improvements, except those insured against by the Title Insurance Policy. Except as described on Schedule 2, each parcel comprising the Property is a separate tax lot and is not a portion of any other tax lot that is not a part of the Property. There are no pending or proposed special or other assessments for public improvements or otherwise affecting the Property, or any contemplated improvements to the Property that may result in such special or other assessments.

4.7 No Bankruptcy Filing. Borrower is not contemplating either the filing of a petition by it under any state or federal bankruptcy or insolvency law or the liquidation of all or a major portion of its property (a “Bankruptcy Proceeding”), and Borrower has no knowledge of any Person contemplating the filing of any such petition against it. In addition, neither Borrower nor the SPE Party nor any principal nor Affiliate of either has been a party to, or the subject of a Bankruptcy Proceeding for the past seven (7) years.

4.8 Full and Accurate Disclosure. No statement of fact made by Borrower in any Loan Documents contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact necessary to make statements contained therein not misleading. There is no material fact presently known to Borrower that has not been disclosed to Lender which adversely affects the Property or the business, operations or condition (financial or otherwise) of Borrower. All financial data, including the statements of cash flow and income and operating expense, that have been delivered to Lender in respect of Borrower and the Property (i) are true, complete and correct in all material respects, (ii) fairly represent the financial condition of Borrower and the Property as of the date of such reports, and (iii) to the extent prepared by an independent certified public accounting firm, have been prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied throughout the periods covered, except as disclosed therein. Borrower has no contingent liabilities, liabilities for taxes, unusual forward or long-term commitments, unrealized or anticipated losses from any unfavorable commitments or any liabilities or obligations not expressly permitted by this Agreement. Since the date of such financial statements, there has been no materially adverse change in the financial condition, operations or business of Borrower or the Property from that set forth in said financial statements.

4.9 Tax Filings. To the extent required, Borrower has filed (or has obtained effective extensions for filing) all federal, state and local tax returns required to be filed and have paid or made adequate provision for the payment of all federal, state and local taxes, charges and assessments payable by Borrower. Borrower believes that its tax returns (if any) properly reflect the income and taxes of Borrower for the periods covered thereby, subject only to reasonable adjustments required by the Internal Revenue Service or other applicable tax authority upon audit.

 

35


4.10 ERISA; No Plan Assets. As of the date hereof and throughout the Term (i) Borrower is not and will not be an “employee benefit plan,” as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA, (ii) none of the assets of Borrower constitutes or will constitute “plan assets” of one or more such plans within the meaning of 29 C.F.R. Section 2510.3-101, (iii) Borrower is not and will not be a “governmental plan” within the meaning of Section 3(32) of ERISA, and (iv) transactions by or with Borrower are not and will not be subject to (or are in compliance with) state statutes regulating investment of, and fiduciary obligations with respect to, governmental plans. As of the date hereof, neither Borrower, nor any member of a “controlled group of corporations” (within the meaning of Section 414 of the Code) maintains, sponsors or contributes to a “defined benefit plan” (within the meaning of Section 3(35) of ERISA) or a “multiemployer pension plan” (within the meaning of Section 3(37)(A) of ERISA).

4.11 Compliance. Borrower and, to Borrower’s knowledge, the Property and the use thereof comply in all material respects with all applicable Legal Requirements (including with respect to parking and applicable zoning and land use laws, regulations and ordinances). Borrower is not in default or violation of any order, writ, injunction, decree or demand of any Governmental Authority, the violation of which might materially adversely affect the condition (financial or otherwise) or business of Borrower. The Property is used exclusively for office and other appurtenant and related uses. In the event that all or any part of the Improvements are destroyed or damaged, said Improvements can be legally reconstructed to their condition prior to such damage or destruction, and thereafter exist for the same use without violating any zoning or other ordinances applicable thereto and currently in effect and without the necessity of obtaining any variances or special permits. No legal proceedings are pending or, to the knowledge of Borrower, threatened with respect to the zoning of the Property. Neither the zoning nor any other right to construct, use or operate the Property is in any way dependent upon or related to any property other than the Property, other than as set forth in the REA. All certifications, permits, licenses and approvals, including certificates of completion and occupancy permits required for the legal use, occupancy and operation of the Property (collectively, the “Licenses”), have been obtained and are in full force and effect. The use being made of the Property is in conformity with the certificate of occupancy issued for the Property and all other restrictions, covenants and conditions affecting the Property.

4.12 Contracts. There are no service, maintenance or repair contracts affecting the Property that are not terminable on one (1) month’s notice or less without cause and without penalty or premium. All service, maintenance or repair contracts affecting the Property have been entered into at arms-length in the ordinary course of Borrower’s business and provide for the payment of fees in amounts and upon terms comparable to existing market rates.

4.13 Federal Reserve Regulations; Investment Company Act. No part of the proceeds of the Loan will be used for the purpose of purchasing or acquiring any “margin stock” within the meaning of Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or for any other purpose that would be inconsistent with such Regulation U or any other regulation of such Board of Governors, or for any purpose prohibited by Legal Requirements or any Loan Document. Borrower is not (i) an “investment company” or a company “controlled” by an “investment company,” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended; or (ii) subject to any other federal or state law or regulation which purports to restrict or regulate its ability to borrow money.

 

36


4.14 Easements; Utilities and Public Access. All easements, cross easements, licenses, air rights and rights-of-way or other similar property interests (collectively, “Easements”), if any, necessary for the full utilization of the Improvements for their intended purposes have been obtained, are described in the Title Insurance Policy and are in full force and effect without default thereunder. The Property has rights of access to public ways and is served by water, sewer, sanitary sewer and storm drain facilities adequate to service it for its intended uses. Except as disclosed on the Survey, to Borrower’s knowledge, all public utilities necessary or convenient to the full use and enjoyment of the Property are located in the public right-of-way abutting the Property, and all such utilities are connected so as to serve the Property without passing over other property absent a valid easement. All roads necessary for the use of the Property for its current purpose have been completed and dedicated to public use and accepted by all Governmental Authorities.

4.15 Physical Condition. Except as disclosed in the property condition reports delivered to Lender in connection with the Loan dated June, 2006 and prepared by Building Analytics (File No. 106097), to Borrower’s knowledge, the Property, including all Improvements, parking facilities, systems, Equipment and landscaping, are in good condition, order and repair in all material respects; there exists no structural or other material defect or damages to the Property, whether latent or otherwise. Borrower has not received notice from any insurance company or bonding company of any defect or inadequacy in the Property, or any part thereof, which would adversely affect its insurability or cause the imposition of extraordinary premiums or charges thereon or any termination of any policy of insurance or bond. Except as disclosed on the Survey, to Borrower’s knowledge, no portion of the Property is located in an area as identified by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as an area having special flood hazards. The Improvements have suffered no material casualty or damage which has not been fully repaired and the cost thereof fully paid.

4.16 Leases. The rent roll attached hereto as Schedule 3 (the “Rent Roll”) is, to Borrower’s knowledge, true, complete and correct in all material respects and the Property is not subject to any Leases other than the Leases described in the Rent Roll. To Borrower’s knowledge, except as set forth on the Rent Roll: (i) each Lease is in full force and effect; (ii) the tenants under the Leases have accepted possession of and are in occupancy of all of their respective demised premises, have commenced the payment of rent under the Leases, and there are no offsets, claims or defenses to the enforcement thereof; (iii) all rents due and payable under the Leases have been paid and no portion thereof has been paid for any period more than thirty (30) days in advance; (iv) the rent payable under each Lease is the amount of fixed rent set forth in the Rent Roll, and there is no claim or basis for a claim by the tenant thereunder for an adjustment to the rent; (v) to Borrower’s knowledge, no tenant has made any claim against the landlord under any Lease which remains outstanding, there are no defaults on the part of the landlord under any Lease, and no event has occurred which, with the giving of notice or passage of time, or both, would constitute such a default; (vi) to Borrower’s best knowledge, there is no present material default by the tenant under any Lease; (vii) all security deposits under Leases are as set forth on the Rent Roll and are held consistent with Section 3.8 hereof; (viii) Borrower is the sole owner of the entire lessor’s interest in each Lease; (ix) each Lease is the valid, binding and enforceable obligation of the Borrower and the applicable tenant thereunder and (x) no Person has any possessory interest in, or right to occupy, the Property except under the terms of the Lease. None of the Leases contains any option to purchase or right of first refusal to

 

37


purchase the Property or any part thereof. Neither the Leases nor the Rents have been assigned or pledged except to Lender, and no other Person has any interest therein except the tenants thereunder.

4.17 Fraudulent Transfer. Borrower has not entered into the Loan or any Loan Document with the actual intent to hinder, delay, or defraud any creditor, and Borrower has received reasonably equivalent value in exchange for its obligations under the Loan Documents. Giving effect to the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents, the fair saleable value of Borrower’s assets exceeds and will, immediately following the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents, exceed Borrower’s total probable liabilities, including subordinated, unliquidated, disputed or contingent liabilities, including the maximum amount of its contingent liabilities or its debts as such debts become absolute and matured. Borrower’s assets do not and, immediately following the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents will not, constitute unreasonably small capital to carry out its business as conducted or as proposed to be conducted. Borrower does not intend to, and does not believe 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 to be payable on or in respect of obligations of Borrower).

4.20 Management Agreement. The Management Agreement is in full force and effect. There is no default, breach or violation existing thereunder, and no event has occurred (other than payments due but not yet delinquent) that, with the passage of time or the giving of notice, or both, would constitute a default, breach or violation thereunder, by either party thereto.

4.21 Hazardous Substances. Except as expressly disclosed in any environmental report regarding the Property and delivered to Lender in connection with the Loan, and to Borrower’s knowledge, (i) the Property is not in violation of any Legal Requirement pertaining to or imposing liability or standards of conduct concerning environmental regulation, contamination or clean-up, including the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act, the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, the Emergency

The principal place of business of Borrower is its primary address for notices as set forth in Section 6.1 hereof, and Borrower has no other place of business.

4.23 Other Debt. There is no indebtedness with respect to the Property or any excess cash flow or any residual interest therein, whether secured or unsecured, other than Permitted Encumbrances and Permitted Indebtedness.

4.24 REA. The REA is in full force and effect and neither Borrower nor, to Borrower’s knowledge, any other party to the REA, is in default thereunder, and to the best of Borrower’s knowledge, there are no conditions which, with the passage of time or the giving of notice, or both, would constitute a default thereunder. The REA has not been modified, amended or supplemented.

All of the representations and warranties in this Article 4 and elsewhere in the Loan Documents (i) shall survive for so long as any portion of the Debt remains owing to Lender and (ii) shall be deemed to have been relied upon by Lender notwithstanding any investigation heretofore or hereafter made by Lender or on its behalf, provided, however, that the representations, warranties and covenants set forth in Section 4.21 above shall survive in perpetuity.

Borrower shall not suffer and shall promptly cause to be paid and discharged any Lien against the Property, and shall promptly pay for all utility services provided to the Property. After prior notice to Lender, Borrower, at its own expense, may contest by appropriate legal proceeding, promptly initiated and conducted in good faith and with due diligence, the amount or validity or application of any Taxes or Other Charges, provided that (i) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (ii) such proceeding shall suspend the collection of the Taxes or such Other Charges (or Borrower otherwise pays the same, including with funds from the Tax and Insurance Subaccount), (iii) such proceeding shall be permitted under and be conducted in accordance with the provisions of any other instrument to which Borrower is subject and shall not constitute a default thereunder, (iv) no part of or interest in the Property will be in danger of being sold, forfeited, terminated, canceled or lost, (v) Borrower shall have furnished such security as may be required in the proceeding, or as may be requested by Lender, to insure the payment of any such Taxes or Other Charges, together with all interest and penalties thereon, which shall not be more than 125% of the Taxes and Other Charges being contested (less amounts then being retained in the Tax and Insurance Subaccount to pay such Taxes so contested), and (vi) Borrower shall promptly upon final determination thereof pay the amount of such Taxes or Other Charges, together with all costs, interest and penalties.

5.3 Access to Property. Borrower shall permit agents, representatives, consultants and employees of Lender to inspect the Property or any part thereof at reasonable hours upon reasonable advance notice, subject however to the rights of tenants under any Leases.

5.4 Repairs; Maintenance and Compliance; Alterations.

5.4.1 Repairs; Maintenance and Compliance. Borrower shall at all times maintain, preserve and protect all franchises and trade names, and Borrower shall cause the Property to be maintained in a good and safe condition and repair and shall not remove, demolish or alter the Improvements or Equipment (except for alterations performed in accordance with Section 5.4.2 below and normal replacement of Equipment with Equipment of equivalent value and functionality).

5.4.2 Alterations. Borrower may, without Lender’s consent, perform alterations to the Improvements and Equipment which (i) do not constitute a Material Alteration, (ii) do not adversely affect Borrower’s financial condition or the value or Net Operating Income of the Property and (iii) are in the ordinary course of Borrower’s business. Borrower shall not perform any Material Alteration without Lender’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, however, that Lender may, in its sole and absolute discretion, withhold consent to any alteration the cost of which is reasonably estimated to exceed $2,500,000 or which is likely to result in a decrease of Net Operating Income by two and one-half percent (2.5%) or more for a period of thirty (30) days or longer. Lender may, as a condition to giving its consent to a Material Alteration, require that Borrower deliver to Lender security for payment of the cost of such Material Alteration in an amount equal to 125% of the amount by which the cost of the Material Alteration as reasonably estimated by Lender exceeds $2,500,000. Upon substantial completion of the Material Alteration, Borrower shall provide evidence satisfactory to Lender that (i) the Material Alteration was constructed in accordance with applicable Legal Requirements and substantially in accordance with plans and specifications approved by Lender (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), (ii) all contractors, subcontractors, materialmen and professionals who provided work, materials or services in connection with the Material Alteration have been paid in full and have delivered unconditional releases of lien and (iii) all material Licenses necessary for the use, operation and occupancy of the Material Alteration (other than those which depend on the performance of tenant improvement work) have been issued. Borrower shall reimburse Lender upon demand for all actual out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including the reasonable fees of any architect, engineer or other professional engaged by Lender) incurred by Lender in reviewing plans and specifications or in making any determinations necessary to implement the provisions of this Section 5.4.2.

5.4.3 Parking Garage. Borrower shall cause that certain parking facility located on the Property known as Parking Garage 2 (the “Parking Garage”) to be inspected by Haynes Whaley Associates, Inc. or any other engineering firm reasonably approved by Lender (each, an “Approved Engineer”) at least once in each twelve (12) month period during the Term, and shall cause such Approved Engineer to deliver to Lender a written report summarizing the conclusions and recommendations of such inspection. In the event that the Approved Engineer recommends any remedial action or demolition and reconstruction of the Parking Garage (collectively, the “Parking Garage Work”), Borrower shall, at Borrower’s sole cost and expense, promptly commence the performance of the same and shall diligently and expeditiously pursue the same to completion in a good and workmanlike and lien free manner. At Lender’s option, Lender shall have the right to review and approve (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) the construction budget and schedule, all plans and specifications, all engineering and other professionals’ reports, the general construction agreement, the architect’s and/or engineer’s agreement(s) and all other material agreements relating to the design, construction and completion of the Parking Garage Work. Borrower shall pay all reasonable out-of pocket expenses incurred by Lender (including Lender’s reasonable attorneys’ fees) in connection with Lender’s review and approval of the Parking Garage Work. Additionally,

 

41


Lender shall have the right (if it desires) to verify (by an inspection conducted at Borrower’s expense) the performance of the work associated with the Parking Garage Work. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Parking Garage Work shall be deemed to be a Material Alteration for all purposes set forth in Section 5.4.2 above (other than the second sentence of Section 5.4.2 above).

5.8 Environmental Matters.

5.8.1 Hazardous Substances. So long as Borrower owns or is in possession of the Property, Borrower shall (i) keep the Property in compliance with all Environmental Laws, (ii) promptly notify Lender if Borrower shall become aware that (A) any Hazardous Substance is on or near the Property, (B) the Property is in violation of any Environmental Laws or (C) any condition on or near the Property shall pose a threat to the health, safety or welfare of humans and (iii) remove such Hazardous Substances and/or cure such violations and/or remove such threats, as applicable, as required by law (or as shall be required by Lender in the case of removal which is not required by law, but in response to the reasonable opinion of a licensed hydrogeologist, licensed environmental engineer or other qualified environmental consulting firm engaged by Lender (“Lender’s Consultant”)), promptly after Borrower becomes aware of same, at Borrower’s sole expense. Nothing herein shall prevent Borrower from recovering such expenses from any other party that may be liable for such removal or cure.

5.8.2 Environmental Monitoring.

(a) Borrower shall give prompt written notice to Lender of (i) any proceeding or inquiry by any party (including any Governmental Authority) with respect to the presence of any Hazardous Substance on, under, from or about the Property, (ii) all claims made or threatened by any third party (including any Governmental Authority) against Borrower or the Property or any

 

42


party occupying the Property relating to any loss or injury resulting from any Hazardous Substance, and (iii) Borrower’s discovery of any occurrence or condition on any real property adjoining or in the vicinity of the Property that could cause the Property to be subject to any investigation or cleanup pursuant to any Environmental Law. Upon becoming aware of the presence of mold or fungus at the Property, Borrower shall (i) undertake an investigation to identify the source(s) of such mold or fungus and shall develop and implement an appropriate remediation plan to eliminate the presence of any Toxic Mold, (ii) perform or cause to be performed all acts reasonably necessary for the remediation of any Toxic Mold (including taking any action necessary to clean and disinfect any portions of the Property affected by Toxic Mold, including providing any necessary moisture control systems at the Property), and (iii) provide evidence reasonably satisfactory to Lender of the foregoing. Borrower shall permit Lender to join and participate in, as a party if it so elects, any legal or administrative proceedings or other actions initiated with respect to the Property in connection with any Environmental Law or Hazardous Substance, and Borrower shall pay all reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements incurred by Lender in connection therewith.

(b) Upon Lender’s request, at any time and from time to time (which request Lender shall not make more than once in any 12-month period unless (i) such request is made in connection with a Secondary Market Transaction, or (ii) Lender has a good faith belief that there is a violation of Environmental Laws or a release of Hazardous Substances at the Property), Borrower shall undertake an inspection or audit of the Property prepared by a licensed hydrogeologist, licensed environmental engineer or qualified environmental consulting firm approved by Lender assessing the presence or absence of Hazardous Substances on, in or near the Property, and if Lender in its good faith judgment determines that reasonable cause exists for the performance of such environmental inspection or audit, then the cost and expense of such audit or inspection shall be paid by Borrower. Such inspections and audit may include soil borings and ground water monitoring. If Borrower fails to provide any such inspection or audit within thirty (30) days after such request, Lender may order same, and Borrower hereby grants to Lender and its employees and agents access to the Property and a license to undertake such inspection or audit.

(c) If any environmental site assessment report prepared in connection with such inspection or audit recommends that an operations and maintenance plan be implemented for any Hazardous Substance, whether such Hazardous Substance existed prior to the ownership of the Property by Borrower, or presently exists or is reasonably suspected of existing, Borrower shall cause such operations and maintenance plan to be prepared and implemented at its expense upon request of Lender, and with respect to any Toxic Mold, Borrower shall take all action necessary to clean and disinfect any portions of the Improvements affected by Toxic Mold in or about the Improvements, including providing any necessary moisture control systems at the Property. If any investigation, site monitoring, containment, cleanup, removal, restoration or other work of any kind is reasonably necessary under an applicable Environmental Law (“Remedial Work”), Borrower shall commence all such Remedial Work within thirty (30) days after written demand by Lender and thereafter diligently prosecute to completion all such Remedial Work within such period of time as may be required under applicable law. All Remedial Work shall be performed by licensed contractors reasonably approved in advance by Lender and under the supervision of a consulting engineer reasonably approved by Lender. All costs of such Remedial Work shall be paid by Borrower, including Lender’s reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements incurred in

 

43


connection with the monitoring or review of such Remedial Work. If Borrower does not timely commence and diligently prosecute to completion the Remedial Work, Lender may (but shall not be obligated to) cause such Remedial Work to be performed at Borrower’s expense. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower shall not be required to commence such Remedial Work within the above specified time period: (x) if prevented from doing so by any Governmental Authority, (y) if commencing such Remedial Work within such time period would result in Borrower or such Remedial Work violating any Environmental Law, or (z) if Borrower, at its expense and after prior written notice to Lender, is contesting by appropriate legal, administrative or other proceedings, conducted in good faith and with due diligence, the need to perform Remedial Work. Borrower shall have the right to contest the need to perform such Remedial Work, provided that, (1) Borrower is permitted by the applicable Environmental Laws to delay performance of the Remedial Work pending such proceedings, (2) neither the Property nor any part thereof or interest therein will be sold, forfeited or lost if Borrower fails to promptly perform the Remedial Work being contested, and if Borrower fails to prevail in contest, Borrower would thereafter have the opportunity to perform such Remedial Work, (3) Lender would not, by virtue of such permitted contest, be exposed to any risk of any civil liability for which Borrower has not furnished additional security as provided in clause (4) below, or to any risk of criminal liability, and neither the Property nor any interest therein would be subject to the imposition of any Lien for which Borrower has not furnished additional security as provided in clause (4) below, as a result of the failure to perform such Remedial Work and (4) Borrower shall have furnished to Lender additional security in respect of the Remedial Work being contested and the loss or damage that may result from Borrower’s failure to prevail in such contest in such amount as may be reasonably requested by Lender but in no event less than 125% of the cost of such Remedial Work as estimated by Lender or Lender’s Consultant and any loss or damage that may result from Borrower’s failure to prevail in such contest.

(d) Borrower shall not install or permit to be installed on the Property any underground storage tank.

5.8.3 O & M Program. In the event any environmental report delivered to Lender in connection with the Loan recommends the development of or continued compliance with an operation and maintenance program for the Property (including, without limitation, with respect to the presence of asbestos and/or lead-based paint) (“O & M Program”), Borrower shall develop (or continue to comply with, as the case may be) such O & M Program and shall, during the term of the Loan, including any extension or renewal thereof, comply in all material respects with the terms and conditions of the O & M Program.

5.9 Title to the Property. Borrower will warrant and defend the title to the Property, and the validity and priority of all Liens granted or otherwise given to Lender under the Loan Documents, subject only to Permitted Encumbrances, against the claims of all Persons.

5.10 Leases.

5.10.1 Generally. Upon request, Borrower shall furnish Lender with executed copies of all Leases then in effect. All renewals of Leases (unless provided otherwise by the terms of such Lease) and all proposed leases shall provide for rental rates and terms comparable to existing local market rates and shall be arm’s length transactions with bona fide, independent third-party tenants.

 

44


5.10.2 Material Leases. Borrower shall not enter into a proposed Material Lease or a proposed renewal, extension or modification of an existing Material Lease without the prior written consent of Lender, which consent shall not, so long as no Event of Default is continuing, be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Prior to seeking Lender’s consent to any Material Lease, Borrower shall deliver to Lender a copy of such proposed lease (a “Proposed Material Lease”) blacklined to show changes from the standard form of Lease approved by Lender and then being used by Borrower. Lender shall approve or disapprove each Proposed Material Lease or proposed renewal, extension or modification of an existing Material Lease for which Lender’s approval is required under this Agreement within ten (10) Business Days of the submission by Borrower to Lender of a written request for such approval, accompanied by a final copy of the Proposed Material Lease or proposed renewal, extension or modification of an existing Material Lease. If requested by Borrower, Lender will grant conditional approvals of Proposed Material Leases or proposed renewals, extensions or modifications of existing Material Leases at any stage of the leasing process, from initial “term sheet” through negotiated lease drafts, provided that Lender shall retain the right to disapprove any such Proposed Material Lease or proposed renewal, extension or modification of an existing Material Lease, if subsequent to any preliminary approval material changes are made to the terms previously approved by Lender, or additional material terms are added that had not previously been considered and approved by Lender in connection with such Proposed Material Lease or proposed renewal, extension or modification of an existing Material Lease. Provided that no Event of Default is continuing, if Borrower provides Lender with a written request for approval (which written request shall specifically refer to this Section 5.10.2 and shall explicitly state that failure by Lender to approve or disapprove within ten (10) Business Days will constitute a deemed approval) and Lender fails to reject the request in writing delivered to Borrower within ten (10) Business Days after receipt by Lender of the request, the Proposed Material Lease or proposed renewal, extension or modification of an existing Material Lease shall be deemed approved by Lender, and Borrower shall be entitled to enter into such Proposed Material Lease or proposed renewal, extension or modification of an existing Material Lease.

5.10.3 Minor Leases. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 5.10.2 above, provided that no Event of Default is continuing, renewals, amendments and modifications of existing Leases and proposed leases, shall not be subject to the prior approval of Lender provided (i) the proposed lease would be a Minor Lease or the existing Lease as amended or modified or the renewal Lease is a Minor Lease, (ii) the proposed lease shall be written substantially in accordance with the standard form of Lease which shall have been approved by Lender, (iii) the Lease as amended or modified or the renewal Lease or series of leases or proposed lease or series of leases: (a) shall provide for net effective rental rates comparable to existing local market rates, (b) shall have an initial term (exclusive of any renewal options) of not less than three (3) years (provided, however, the foregoing shall not restrict Borrower’s ability to enter into one or more Leases, covering up to 10% of the aggregate rentable square feet of the Improvements at any one time, with a term of less than three years) or greater than ten (10) years, (c) shall provide for automatic self-operative subordination to the Mortgage and, at Lender’s option, attornment to Lender, and (d) shall not contain any option to purchase, any right of first refusal to purchase, any right to terminate (except in the event of the destruction or condemnation of substantially all

 

45


of the Property), any requirement for a non-disturbance or recognition agreement (other than on Lender’s then standard form of non-disturbance or recognition agreement), or any other provision which might adversely affect the rights of Lender under the Loan Documents in any material respect. Borrower shall deliver to Lender copies of all Leases which are entered into pursuant to the preceding sentence together with Borrower’s certification that it has satisfied all of the conditions of the preceding sentence at the time of delivery of the next monthly report required under Section 6.3.4.

5.10.4 Additional Covenants with respect to Leases. Borrower (i) shall observe and perform the material obligations imposed upon the lessor under the Leases and shall do nothing to impair the value of the Leases as security for the Debt; (ii) shall promptly send copies to Lender of all notices of default that Borrower shall send or receive under any Lease; (iii) shall enforce, in accordance with commercially reasonable practices for properties similar to the Property, the terms, covenants and conditions in the Leases to be observed or performed by the lessees, short of termination thereof (except as provided in clause (ix) below); (iv) shall not collect any of the Rents more than one (1) month in advance (other than security deposits); (v) shall not execute any other assignment of lessor’s interest in the Leases or the Rents (except as contemplated by the Loan Documents); (vi) shall not modify any Lease in a manner inconsistent with the Loan Documents; (vii) shall not convey or transfer or suffer or permit a conveyance or transfer of the Property so as to effect a merger of the estates and rights of, or diminution of the obligations of, lessees under Leases; (viii) shall not consent to any assignment of or subletting under any Material Lease unless required in accordance with its terms without the prior consent of Lender, which, with respect to a subletting, may not, so long as no Event of Default is continuing, be unreasonably withheld or delayed (provided that Lender’s consent shall not be required in connection with (i) an assignment if the assigning tenant (and its guarantor, if applicable) remains primarily liable under the applicable Lease or (ii) a subletting of less than 80,000 square feet); and (ix) shall not cancel or terminate any Lease or accept a surrender thereof (except in the exercise of Borrower’s commercially reasonable judgment in connection with a tenant default under a Minor Lease or if such a termination or cancellation is a condition to leasing, to another tenant which will pay net effective rental rates comparable to existing local market rates, the space subject to the Lease being cancelled or terminated) without the prior consent of Lender, which consent shall not, so long as no Event of Default is continuing, be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

5.10.5 BMC Space Master Lease. In the event that a BMC Software Lease Special Termination occurs, then upon the effective date of such BMC Software Lease Special Termination, Borrower (as landlord) shall enter into a “master lease” (the “BMC Space Master Lease”) with TPG/CalSTRS (as tenant) (in such capacity, the “BMC Space Master Lease Tenant”), pursuant to which the BMC Space Master Lease Tenant leases from Borrower the entirety of the space under the BMC Software Lease(s) that has been surrendered, cancelled or terminated as a result of the BMC Software Lease Special Termination (the “BMC Space Master Lease Space”), which BMC Space Master Lease shall provide for annual per square foot contract rent and recoveries equal to then annual per square foot contract rent and recoveries payable pursuant to the BMC Software Lease(s) (the “Minimum PSF Rent and Recoveries”), for a term expiring on June 30, 2021. The BMC Space Master Lease shall be on the form of the “Master Lease” prepared in connection with that certain loan being made concurrently herewith by Lender to Other Property Owner. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5.10.5 to the

 

46


contrary, BMC Space Master Lease Tenant may partially assign or sublet or partially release all or any portion of the BMC Space Master Lease Space (and Borrower may approve the same), provided (i) such assignment or partial release shall be evidenced by a written modification or amendment of the BMC Space Master Lease in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5.10 and Section 13 of the BMC Space Master Lease, (ii) that any space as to which BMC Space Master Lease Tenant is released is the subject, in each case, of a new direct Lease entered into between Borrower and a tenant in accordance with this Section 5.10 (each such tenant a “New ML Tenant” and each such new direct lease, a “New ML Lease”), (iii) no such New ML Lease may be entered into (or approved by Borrower) at any time that comparable vacant space at the Property is otherwise available for leasing (and acceptable to the proposed New ML Tenant), and (iv) to the extent that the per square foot contract rent and recoveries under all such New ML Leases is less than the Minimum PSF Rent and Recoveries under the BMC Space Master Lease, the per square foot contract rent and recoveries under the BMC Space Master Lease with respect to the remaining space demised thereunder will be automatically increased or decreased (pursuant to a written modification or amendment of the BMC Space Master Lease in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5.10.5) to the extent necessary so that the aggregate contract rent and recoveries payable with respect to the remaining space demised under the BMC Space Master Lease and all such New ML Leases shall be equal to the Minimum PSF Rent and Recoveries originally payable with respect to the entirety of the BMC Space Master Lease Space under the BMC Space Master Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is understood that if (i) the BMC Space Master Lease Tenant seeks a full and complete release from the BMC Space Master Lease in accordance with this Section 5.10.5 and (ii) the aggregate per square foot contract rent and recoveries under all New ML Leases is less than the Minimum PSF Rent and Recoveries originally payable with respect to the entirety of the BMC Space Master Lease Space under the BMC Space Master Lease, then in no event shall Borrower release BMC Space Master Lease Tenant from its remaining tenancy obligations under the Master Lease. Thus, at least a portion of the BMC Space Master Lease Space must either be (i) subleased or (ii) retained as space leased directly by BMC Space Master Lease Tenant under the BMC Space Master Lease, such that, in either case, BMC Space Master Lease Tenant shall still be obligated to pay to Borrower, under the BMC Space Master Lease, (x) the Minimum PSF Rent and Recoveries originally payable with respect to the entirety of the BMC Space Master Lease Space under the BMC Space Master Lease less (y) the aggregate contract rent and recoveries payable with respect to all New ML Leases. Upon termination of the BMC Space Master Lease, Borrower may enter into direct Leases for all subleased space on the terms set forth in the subleases.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to restrict Borrower from entering into the BMC Space Master Lease at any time (even if prior to the occurrence of a BMC Software Lease Special Termination), provided that the commencement date of the BMC Space Master Lease shall not occur later than the effective date of termination or cancellation or surrender of the BMC Software Lease(s).

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above, with respect to any New ML Lease, the BMC Space Master Lease Tenant shall be responsible for all leasing costs expenses incurred in connection therewith (including tenant improvement work and brokerage commissions), and the BMC Space Master Lease Tenant may not be released from its obligations under the BMC Space Master Lease (with respect to such New ML Lease) until such time that such leasing costs and expenses have been paid in full.

5.11 Estoppel Statement. After request by Lender, Borrower shall within ten (10) days furnish Lender with a statement addressed to Lender, its successors and assigns, duly acknowledged and certified, setting forth (i) the unpaid Principal, (ii) the Interest Rate, (iii) the date installments of interest and/or Principal were last paid, (iv) any offsets or defenses to the payment of the Debt, and (v) that the Loan Documents are valid, legal and binding obligations and have not been modified or if modified, giving particulars of such modification.

5.12 Property Management.

Borrower shall prepare and submit (or shall cause Manager to prepare and submit) to Lender within thirty (30) days after a Cash Management Period and by November 30th of each year thereafter during the Term until such Cash Management Period has ended, for approval by Lender, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, a proposed pro forma budget for the Property for the succeeding calendar year (the “Annual Budget”, and each Annual Budget approved (or deemed approved pursuant to the terms of this Section 6.3.6) by Lender is referred to herein as the “Approved Annual Budget”)), and, promptly after preparation thereof, any revisions to such Annual Budget. Lender’s failure to approve or disapprove any Annual Budget or revision within thirty (30) days after Lender’s receipt thereof shall be deemed to constitute Lender’s approval thereof. The Annual Budget shall consist of (i) an operating expense budget showing, on a month-by-month basis, in reasonable detail, each line item of the Borrower’s anticipated operating income and operating expenses (on an accrual basis), including amounts required to establish, maintain and/or increase any monthly payments required hereunder (and once such Annual Budget has been approved (or deemed approved pursuant to the terms of this Section 6.3.6) by Lender, such operating expense budget shall be referred to herein as the “Approved Operating Budget”), and (ii) a Capital Expense budget showing, on a month-by-month basis, in reasonable detail, each line item of anticipated Capital Expenses (and once such Annual Budget has been approved (or deemed approved pursuant to the terms of this Section 6.3.6) by Lender, such Capital Expense budget shall be referred to herein as the “Approved Capital Budget”).

7. INSURANCE; CASUALTY; AND CONDEMNATION

7.1 Insurance.

7.1.1 Coverage. Borrower, at its sole cost, for the mutual benefit of Borrower and Lender, shall obtain and maintain during the Term the following policies of insurance:

 

60


(a) Property insurance insuring against loss or damage customarily included under so called “all risk” or “special form” policies including fire, lightning, vandalism, and malicious mischief, boiler and machinery and, if required by Lender, flood and/or earthquake coverage and subject to subsection (k) below, coverage for damage or destruction caused by the acts of “Terrorists” (or such policies shall have no exclusion from coverage with respect thereto) and such other insurable hazards as, under good insurance practices, from time to time are insured against for other property and buildings similar to the premises in nature, use, location, height, and type of construction. Such insurance policy shall also insure for ordinance of law coverage, loss of replacement cost value due to non-conforming use, costs of demolition and increased cost of construction in amounts satisfactory to Lender. Each such insurance policy shall for all perils other than Tier 1 Wind and flood (i) be in an amount equal to 100% of the then replacement cost of the Improvements without deduction for physical depreciation, (ii) have deductibles no greater than the lesser of $50,000 or five percent (5%) of Net Operating Income per occurrence (except for earthquake coverage, if required, and terrorism coverage as described under subsection (k) below, each of which shall have deductibles in an amount satisfactory to Lender), (iii) be paid annually in advance and (iv) be on a replacement cost basis and contain either no coinsurance or, an Agreed Amount endorsement, and shall cover, without limitation, all tenant improvements and betterments that Borrower is required to insure on a replacement cost basis. Lender shall be named Mortgagee and Loss Payee on a Standard Mortgagee Endorsement.

(b) Flood insurance if any part of the Property is located in an area now or hereafter designated by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as a Zone “A” & “V” Special Hazard Area, or such other Special Hazard Area if Lender so requires in its sole discretion. Provided such coverage is commercially available for comparable properties in the same geographic area as the Property, such policy shall be in an amount equal to the lesser of (1) 20% of the insured value of each building comprising the Property or (2) such other amount as is approved by Lender.

(c) Windstorm insurance if any part of the Property is located in an area now or hereafter designated as a Tier 1 Wind zone. Provided such coverage is commercially available, such policy shall be in an amount equal to at least $213,400,000 (which represents the original principal amount of the Loan plus the aggregate principal amount of the Other Loan) or such lesser amount as is approved by Lender, and having deductibles no greater than 5% of total insured value, subject to a $100,000 minimum deductible. In the event that such coverage with respect to Tier 1 Wind is not included as part of the “all risk” property policy required by this subsection, Borrower shall, nevertheless be required to obtain coverage for windstorm (as stand alone coverage) in an amount equal to $213,400,000 (which represents the original principal amount of the Loan plus the aggregate principal amount of the Other Loan) or such lesser amount as is approved by Lender; provided that such coverage is commercially available for comparable properties in the same geographic area as the Property. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender agrees that in the event that the Rating Agencies establish criteria for windstorm coverage (relating to properties in the same geographic area as the Property, and secured by loans comparable to the Loan for the securitization market) that require less coverage than that described above, then Lender agrees that Borrower may avail itself to such lesser coverage, provided the same is reasonably acceptable to Lender.

 

61


(d) Public liability insurance, including (i) ”Commercial General Liability Insurance”, (ii) ”Owned”, “Hired” and “Non Owned Auto Liability”; and (iii) umbrella liability coverage for personal injury, bodily injury, death, accident and property damage, such insurance providing in combination no less than containing minimum limits per occurrence of $1,000,000 and $2,000,000 in the aggregate for any policy year with no deductible or self insured retention; together with at least $50,000,000 excess and/or umbrella liability insurance for any and all claims. The policies described in this subsection shall also include coverage for elevators, escalators, independent contractors, “Contractual Liability” (covering, to the maximum extent permitted by law, Borrower’s obligation to indemnify Lender as required under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents), “Products” and “Completed Operations Liability” coverage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower may elect to convert to a self-insured retention or deductible program for general liability coverage in the future, subject to Lender’s prior approval, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, however that the self-insured retention or deductible for general liability coverage is not to exceed $100,000 per occurrence subject to a $500,000 maximum, and this deductible to be initially funded with a Letter of Credit in the amount of $200,000, held and administrated by the carrier. Once the first $200,000 is exhausted additional Letters of Credit must be continually posted until the $500,000 maximum deductible is exhausted.

(e) Rental loss and/or business interruption insurance (i) with Lender being named as “Lender Loss Payee”, (ii) in an amount equal to 100% of the projected Rents from the Property during an eighteen (18) month period; and (iii) providing payment for the initial period of restoration followed by an extended period of indemnity endorsement which provides that after the physical loss to the Property has been repaired, the continued loss of income will be insured until such income either returns to the same level it was at prior to the loss, or the expiration of six (6) months from the date that the Property is repaired or replaced and operations are resumed, whichever first occurs, and notwithstanding that the policy may expire prior to the end of such period. The amount of such insurance shall be increased from time to time during the Term as and when the estimated or actual Rents increase.

(f) If the Borrower installs high pressure boilers at the Property, comprehensive boiler and machinery insurance covering all mechanical and electrical equipment against physical damage, rent loss and improvements loss and covering, without limitation, all tenant improvements and betterments that Borrower is required to insure pursuant to the leases on a replacement cost basis and in an amount equal to 100% of the full replacement cost of the Equipment on such Property (without any deduction for depreciation). All losses for resulting damage to building Improvements are to be paid under the Borrower’s manuscripted property policy form. Under the terms and conditions of the current insurance program only damage to Equipment will be paid under the boiler & machinery policy.

(g) Worker’s compensation and disability insurance with respect to any employees of Borrower, as required by any Legal Requirement.

(h) To the extent not covered by the coverage required under Section 7.1.1(a) above, during any period of repair or restoration, builder’s “all-risk” insurance on the so called completed value basis in an amount equal to not less than the full insurable value of the Property, against such risks (including fire and extended coverage and collapse of the Improvements to agreed limits) as Lender may reasonably request, in form and substance acceptable to Lender.

 

62


(i) Ordinance and Law coverage to compensate for loss of value to the undamaged portion of the Property due to a legal non-conforming use, the cost of demolition and debris removal, and the increased cost of construction, in an amount satisfactory to Lender.

(j) Such other insurance (including earthquake insurance, mine subsidence insurance and windstorm insurance) as may from time to time be reasonably required by Lender in order to protect its interests; provided that such coverage is customarily required by institutional lenders originating first mortgage loans for the securitization market for comparable properties in the same geographic location as the Property. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Borrower agrees that the Policies in place at closing and upon any renewals of the same, shall include coverage for land movement and/or property damage resulting from the creeping fault line running underneath a portion of the Property (as described in the Physical Condition Report delivered to Lender in connection with the Loan), and the minimum sublimit required for this coverage is $25,000,000.

(k) Notwithstanding anything in subsection (a) above to the contrary, Borrower shall be required to obtain and maintain coverage in its property insurance Policy (or by a separate Policy) against loss or damage by terrorist acts in an amount equal to 100% of the “Full Replacement Cost” of the Property; provided that such coverage is commercially available. In the event that such coverage with respect to terrorist acts is not included as part of the “all risk” property policy required by subsection (a) above, Borrower shall, nevertheless be required to obtain coverage for terrorism (as stand alone coverage) in an amount equal to 100% of the “Full Replacement Cost” of the Property; provided that such coverage is available. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any such stand-alone policy covering terrorist acts, Borrower shall not be required to pay any Insurance Premiums solely with respect to such terrorism coverage in excess of the Terrorism Premium Cap (hereinafter defined); provided that if the Insurance Premiums payable with respect to such terrorism coverage exceeds the Terrorism Premium Cap, Lender may, at its option (1) purchase such stand-alone terrorism Policy, with Borrower paying such portion of the Insurance Premiums with respect thereto equal to the Terrorism Premium Cap and the Lender paying such portion of the Insurance Premiums in excess of the Terrorism Premium Cap or (2) modify the deductible amounts, policy limits and other required policy terms to reduce the Insurance Premiums payable with respect to such stand-alone terrorism Policy to the Terrorism Premium Cap. As used herein, (i) “Terrorism Premium Cap” means an amount equal to 150% of the aggregate Insurance Premiums payable with respect to all the insurance coverage under Section 7.1.1(a) above for the last policy year in which coverage for terrorism was included as part of the “all risk” (excluding earthquake, tier 1 wind and Flood insurance) property policy required by subsection (a) above, adjusted annually by a percentage equal to the increase in the Consumer Price Index (hereinafter defined) and (ii) “Consumer Price Index” means the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the United States Department of Labor, New York Metropolitan Statistical Area, All Items (1982-84 = 100), or any successor index thereto, approximately adjusted, and in the event that the Consumer Price Index is converted to a different standard reference base or otherwise revised, the determination of adjustments provided for herein shall be made with the use of such conversion factor, formula or table for converting the Consumer Price Index as may

 

63


be published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics or, if said Bureau shall not publish the same, then with the use of such conversion factor, formula or table as may be published by Prentice-Hall, Inc., or any other nationally recognized publisher of similar statistical information; and if the Consumer Price Index ceases to be published, and there is no successor thereto (i) such other index as Lender and Borrower shall agree upon in writing or (ii) if Lender and Borrower cannot agree on a substitute index, such other index, as reasonably selected by Lender. Borrower shall obtain the coverage required under this subsection (k) from a carrier which otherwise satisfies the rating criteria specified in Section 7.1.2 below (a “Qualified Carrier”) or in the event that such coverage is not available from a Qualified Carrier, Borrower shall obtain such coverage from the highest rated insurance company providing such coverage.

7.1.2 Policies. All policies of insurance (the “Policies”) required pursuant to Section 7.1.1 above shall (i) be issued by companies approved by Lender and authorized to do business in the State, with a claims paying ability rating of “A-” or better by S&P (and the equivalent by any other Rating Agency), and a rating of A-:VIII or better in the current Best’s Insurance Reports (provided, however for multi-layered policies, (A) if four (4) or less insurance companies issue the Policies, then at least 75% of the insurance coverage represented by the Policies must be provided by insurance companies with a claims paying ability rating of “A-” or better by S&P (and the equivalent by any other Rating Agency), with no carrier below “BBB” (and the equivalent by any other Rating Agency) or (B) if five (5) or more insurance companies issue the Policies, then at least sixty percent (60%) of the insurance coverage represented by the Policies must be provided by insurance companies with a claims paying ability rating of “A-” or better by S&P (and the equivalent by any other Rating Agency), with no carrier below “BBB” (and the equivalent by any other Rating Agency), or (C) if thirty (30) or more insurance companies issue the Policies, then at least (60%) of the insurance coverage represented by the Policies must be provided by insurance companies with a claims paying ability rating of “A-” or better by S&P (and the equivalent by any other Rating Agency), and no other carrier rating below “BBB” by S&P, except that up to (2%) of carriers may have a carrier rating of AM Best’s A- IX or better, with no S&P rating; (ii) name Lender and its successors and/or assigns as their interest may appear as the mortgagee (in the case of property insurance), loss payee (in the case of business interruption/loss of rents coverage) and an additional insured (in the case of liability insurance); (iii) contain (in the case of property insurance) a Non-Contributory Standard Mortgagee Clause and a Lender’s Loss Payable Endorsement, or their equivalents, naming Lender as the person to which all payments made by such insurance company shall be paid; (iv) contain a waiver of all subrogation rights against Lender; (v) be assigned and the originals thereof delivered to Lender; or, in lieu of delivering originals of the Policies, Borrower may, on an annual basis (and upon each renewal of the Policies), deliver Acord evidence of coverages (on Acord certificates acceptable to Lender) as proof of coverage; provided, however, if at, any time, Lender requests carrier certified copies of the Policies representing the primary layers of insurance coverage, Borrower shall deliver such carrier certified copies within ten (10) days of Lender’s request therefor; (vi) contain such provisions as Lender deems reasonably necessary or desirable to protect its interest, including (A) endorsements providing that neither Borrower, Lender nor any other party shall be a co-insurer under the Policies, (B) that Lender shall receive at least (x) thirty (30) days’ prior written notice of any cancellation of any of the Policies and (y) ten (10) days’ prior written notice for nonpayment of Insurance Premiums (and Borrower agrees to advise and obtain Lender’s approval for any material changes in the terms and conditions of any Policy, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), (C) providing that Lender is

 

64


permitted to make payments to effect the continuation of such policy upon notice of cancellation due to non-payment of premiums and (vii) in the event any insurance policy (except for general public and other liability and workers compensation insurance) shall contain breach of warranty provisions, such policy shall provide that with respect to the interest of Lender, such insurance policy shall not be invalidated by and shall insure Lender regardless of (A) any act, failure to act or negligence of or violation of warranties, declarations or conditions contained in such policy by any named insured, (B) the occupancy or use of the premises for purposes more hazardous than permitted by the terms thereof, or (C) any foreclosure or other action or proceeding taken by Lender pursuant to any provision of the Loan Documents. Borrower shall pay the premiums for such Policies (the “Insurance Premiums”) as the same become due and payable and furnish to Lender evidence of the renewal of each of the Policies together with (unless such Insurance Premiums have been paid by Lender pursuant to Section 3.3 hereof) receipts for or other evidence of the payment of the Insurance Premiums reasonably satisfactory to Lender. If Borrower does not furnish such evidence and receipts at least ten (10) days prior to the expiration of any expiring Policy, then Lender may, but shall not be obligated to, procure such insurance and pay the Insurance Premiums therefor, and Borrower shall reimburse Lender for the cost of such Insurance Premiums promptly on demand, with interest accruing at the Default Rate. Borrower shall deliver to Lender at closing and upon each renewal of the Policies, proof of the insurance coverages required hereunder on Acord certificates acceptable to Lender; provided, however, if at, any time, Lender requests carrier certified copies of the Policies representing the primary layers of insurance coverage, Borrower shall deliver such carrier certified copies within ten (10) days of Lender’s request therefor. Within thirty (30) days after request by Lender, Borrower shall obtain such increases in the amounts of coverage required hereunder as may be reasonably requested by Lender, taking into consideration changes in the value of money over time, changes in liability laws, changes in prudent customs and practices, and the like.

7.2 Casualty.

7.2.1 Notice; Restoration. If the Property is damaged or destroyed, in whole or in part, by fire or other casualty (a “Casualty”), Borrower shall give prompt notice thereof to Lender. Following the occurrence of a Casualty, Borrower, regardless of whether insurance proceeds are available (unless Lender has breached its obligation (if any) to make such insurance proceeds available pursuant to Section 7.4.1), shall promptly proceed to restore, repair, replace or rebuild the Property in accordance with Legal Requirements to be of at least equal value and of substantially the same character as prior to such damage or destruction.

7.2.2 Settlement of Proceeds. If a Casualty covered by any of the Policies (an “Insured Casualty”) occurs where the loss does not exceed $2,000,000, provided no Default or Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower may settle and adjust any claim without the prior consent of Lender; provided such adjustment is carried out in a competent and timely manner, and Borrower is hereby authorized to collect and receipt for the insurance proceeds (the “Proceeds”). In the event of an Insured Casualty where the loss equals or exceeds $2,000,000 (a “Significant Casualty”), Borrower may settle and adjust any claim with the prior consent of Lender (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, in which case Lender may, in its sole discretion, settle and adjust any claim without the consent of Borrower and agree with the insurer(s) on the amount to be paid on the loss, and the Proceeds shall be due and payable solely

 

65


to Lender and held by Lender in the Casualty/Condemnation Subaccount and disbursed in accordance herewith. If Borrower or any party other than Lender is a payee on any check representing Proceeds with respect to a Significant Casualty, Borrower shall immediately endorse, and cause all such third parties to endorse, such check payable to the order of Lender. During the continuance of an Event of Default, Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Lender as its attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest, to endorse such check payable to the order of Lender. The actual, out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Lender in the settlement, adjustment and collection of the Proceeds shall become part of the Debt and shall be reimbursed by Borrower to Lender upon demand. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if in connection with a Casualty any insurance carrier makes a payment under a property insurance Policy that Borrower proposes be treated as business or rental interruption insurance, then, notwithstanding any designation (or lack of designation) by the insurance carrier as to the purpose of such payment, as between Lender and Borrower, such payment shall not be treated as business or rental interruption insurance proceeds unless Borrower has demonstrated to Lender’s satisfaction that the remaining net Proceeds that will be received from the property insurance carriers are sufficient to pay 100% of the cost of fully restoring the Improvements or, if such net Proceeds are to be applied to repay the Debt in accordance with the terms hereof, that such remaining net Proceeds will be sufficient to pay the Debt in full.

7.3 Condemnation.

7.3.1 Notice; Restoration. Borrower shall promptly give Lender notice of the actual or threatened commencement of any condemnation or eminent domain proceeding affecting the Property (a “Condemnation”) and shall deliver to Lender copies of any and all papers served in connection with such Condemnation. Following the occurrence of a Condemnation, Borrower, regardless of whether an Award is available (unless Lender has breached its obligation (if any) to make such Award available pursuant to Section 7.4.1), shall promptly proceed to restore, repair, replace or rebuild the Property in accordance with Legal Requirements to the extent practicable to be of at least equal value and of substantially the same character (and to have the same utility) as prior to such Condemnation.

7.3.2 Collection of Award. If a Condemnation occurs where the award or payment in respect thereof (an “Award”) does not exceed $2,000,000, provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower may make any compromise, adjustment or settlement in connection with such Condemnation with the prior consent of Lender, not to be unreasonably withheld, provided such adjustment is carried out in a competent and timely manner, and Borrower is hereby authorized to collect and receipt for the Award. In the event of a Condemnation where the Award is in excess of $2,000,000, Lender may collect, receive and retain such Award and make any compromise, adjustment or settlement in connection with such Condemnation with the prior consent of Borrower (unless an Event of Default is continuing, in which case, Borrower’s prior consent shall not be required, and Lender is hereby irrevocably appointed as Borrower’s attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest, with exclusive power to take such actions during the continuance of an Event of Default), not to be unreasonably withheld (which shall be deemed consented to if Borrower fails to respond to any request for consent therefor within ten (10) days of request). Notwithstanding any Condemnation (or any transfer made in lieu of or in anticipation of such Condemnation), Borrower shall continue to pay the Debt at the time and in the manner provided for in the Loan Documents, and the Debt shall not

 

66


be reduced unless and until any Award shall have been actually received and applied by Lender to expenses of collecting the Award and to discharge of the Debt. Lender shall not be limited to the interest paid on the Award by the condemning authority but shall be entitled to receive out of the Award interest at the rate or rates provided in the Note. If the Property is sold, through foreclosure or otherwise, prior to the receipt by Lender of such Award, Lender shall have the right, whether or not a deficiency judgment on the Note shall be recoverable or shall have been sought, recovered or denied, to receive all or a portion of the Award sufficient to pay the Debt. Except as provided in this Section 7.3.2, Borrower shall cause any Award that is payable to Borrower to be paid directly to Lender. Lender shall hold such Award in the Casualty/Condemnation Subaccount and disburse such Award in accordance with the terms hereof.

7.4 Application of Proceeds or Award.

7.4.1 Application to Restoration. If an Insured Casualty or Condemnation occurs where (i) the loss is in an aggregate amount less than the fifteen percent (15%) of the unpaid Principal; (ii) in the reasonable judgment of Lender, the Property can be restored within twelve (12) months, and prior to six (6) months before the Stated Maturity Date and prior to the expiration of the rental or business interruption insurance with respect thereto, to the Property’s pre-existing condition and utility as existed immediately prior to such Insured Casualty or Condemnation and to an economic unit not less valuable and not less useful than the same was immediately prior to the Insured Casualty or Condemnation, and after such restoration will adequately secure the Debt; (iii) less than (x) thirty percent (30%), in the case of an Insured Casualty or (y) fifteen percent (15%), in the case of a Condemnation, of the rentable area of the Improvements has been damaged, destroyed or rendered unusable as a result of such Insured Casualty or Condemnation; (iv) Leases demising in the aggregate at least sixty-five percent (65%) of the total rentable space in the Property and in effect as of the date of the occurrence of such Insured Casualty or Condemnation remain in full force and effect during and after the completion of the Restoration (hereinafter defined); and (v) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be then continuing, then the Proceeds or the Award, as the case may be (after reimbursement of any expenses incurred by Lender), shall be applied to reimburse Borrower for the cost of restoring, repairing, replacing or rebuilding the Property (the “Restoration”), in the manner set forth herein. Borrower shall commence and diligently prosecute such Restoration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall Lender be obligated to apply the Proceeds or Award to reimburse Borrower for the cost of Restoration unless, in addition to satisfaction of the foregoing conditions, both (x) Borrower shall pay (and if required by Lender, Borrower shall deposit with Lender in advance) all costs of such Restoration in excess of the net amount of the Proceeds or the Award made available pursuant to the terms hereof; and (y) Lender shall have received evidence reasonably satisfactory to it that during the period of the Restoration, the Rents (inclusive of proceeds (if any) from business interruption or other loss of income insurance) will be at least equal to the sum of the operating expenses and Debt Service and other reserve payments required hereunder, as reasonably determined by Lender.

7.4.2 Application to Debt. Except as provided in Section 7.4.1 above, any Proceeds and/or Award may, at the option of Lender in its discretion, be applied to the payment of (i) accrued but unpaid interest on the Note, (ii) the unpaid Principal and (iii) other charges due under the Note and/or any of the other Loan Documents, or applied to reimburse Borrower for

 

67


the cost of any Restoration, in the manner set forth in Section 7.4.3 below. Any such prepayment of the Loan shall be without any Yield Maintenance Premium, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time the Proceeds are received from the insurance company or the Award is received from the condemning authority, as the case may be, in which event Borrower shall pay to Lender an additional amount equal to the Yield Maintenance Premium, if any, that may be required with respect to the amount of the Proceeds or Award applied to the unpaid Principal.

7.4.3 Procedure for Application to Restoration. If Borrower is entitled to reimbursement out of the Proceeds or an Award held by Lender, such Proceeds or Award shall be disbursed from time to time from the Casualty/Condemnation Subaccount upon Lender being furnished with (i) evidence satisfactory to Lender of the estimated cost of completion of the Restoration, (ii) a fixed price or guaranteed maximum cost construction contract for Restoration satisfactory to Lender, (iii) prior to the commencement of Restoration, all immediately available funds in addition to the Proceeds or Award that in Lender’s judgment are required to complete the proposed Restoration, (iv) such architect’s certificates, waivers of lien, contractor’s sworn statements, title insurance endorsements, bonds, plats of survey, permits, approvals, licenses and such other documents and items as Lender may reasonably require and approve in Lender’s discretion, and (iv) all plans and specifications for such Restoration, such plans and specifications to be approved by Lender prior to commencement of any work (unless such plans are for rebuilding the Improvements as they existed prior to the Casualty or Condemnation, in which case no Lender approval shall be required). Lender may, at Borrower’s expense, retain a consultant to review and approve all requests for disbursements, which approval shall also be a condition precedent to any disbursement. No payment made prior to the final completion of the Restoration shall exceed ninety percent (90%) of the value of the work performed from time to time (until completion of specific trades, which may be paid in full on completion); funds other than the Proceeds or Award shall be disbursed prior to disbursement of such Proceeds or Award; and at all times, the undisbursed balance of such Proceeds or Award remaining in the hands of Lender, together with funds deposited for that purpose or irrevocably committed to the satisfaction of Lender by or on behalf of Borrower for that purpose, shall be at least sufficient in the reasonable judgment of Lender to pay for the cost of completion of the Restoration, free and clear of all Liens or claims for Lien. Provided no Default or Event of Default then exists, any surplus that remains out of the Proceeds held by Lender after payment of such costs of Restoration shall be paid to Borrower. Any surplus that remains out of the Award received by Lender after payment of such costs of Restoration shall, in the discretion of Lender, be retained by Lender and applied to payment of the Debt (without any Yield Maintenance Premium or any other prepayment premium or penalty) or returned to Borrower.

8.2 Remedies.

8.2.1 Acceleration. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default described in paragraph (f) or (g) of Section 8.1 above) and at any time and from time to time thereafter, in addition to any other rights or remedies available to it pursuant to the Loan Documents or at law or in equity, Lender may take such action, without notice or demand, that Lender deems advisable to protect and enforce its rights against Borrower and in and to the Property; including declaring the Debt to be immediately due and payable (including unpaid interest), Default Rate interest, Late Payment Charges, Yield Maintenance Premium and any other amounts owing by Borrower), without notice of acceleration, notice of intent to accelerate or any other notice or demand; and upon any Event of Default described in paragraph (f) or (g) of Section 8.1 above, the Debt (including unpaid interest, Default Rate interest, Late Payment Charges, Yield Maintenance Premium and any other amounts owing by Borrower) shall immediately and automatically become due and payable, without notice of acceleration, notice of intent to accelerate or any other notice or demand, and Borrower hereby expressly waives any such notice or demand (including notice of acceleration and notice of intent to accelerate), anything contained in any Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding.

8.2.2 Remedies Cumulative. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, all or any one or more of the rights, powers, privileges and other remedies available to Lender against Borrower under the Loan Documents or at law or in equity may be exercised by Lender at any time and from time to time, whether or not all or any of the Debt shall be declared, or be automatically, due and payable, and whether or not Lender shall have commenced any foreclosure proceeding or other action for the enforcement of its rights and remedies under any of the Loan Documents. Any such actions taken by Lender shall be cumulative and concurrent and may be pursued independently, singly, successively, together or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Lender may determine in its discretion, to the fullest extent permitted by law, without impairing or otherwise affecting the other rights and remedies of Lender permitted by law, equity or contract or as set forth in the Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Borrower agrees that if an Event of Default is continuing, (i) to the extent

 

70


permitted by applicable law, Lender is not subject to any “one action” or “election of remedies” law or rule, and (ii) all Liens and other rights, remedies or privileges provided to Lender shall remain in full force and effect until Lender has exhausted all of its remedies against the Property, the Mortgage has been foreclosed, the Property has been sold and/or otherwise realized upon in satisfaction of the Debt or the Debt has been paid in full. To the extent permitted by applicable law, nothing contained in any Loan Document shall be construed as requiring Lender to resort to any portion of the Property for the satisfaction of any of the Debt in preference or priority to any other portion, and Lender may seek satisfaction out of the entire Property or any part thereof, in its discretion.

8.2.3 Severance. After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender shall have the right from time to time to sever the Note and the other Loan Documents into one or more separate notes, mortgages and other security documents in such denominations and priorities of payment and liens as Lender shall determine in its discretion for purposes of evidencing and enforcing its rights and remedies. Borrower shall execute and deliver to Lender from time to time, promptly after the request of Lender, a severance agreement and such other documents as Lender shall request in order to effect the severance described in the preceding sentence, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender. Borrower hereby absolutely and irrevocably appoints Lender as its true and lawful attorney, coupled with an interest, in its name and stead to make and execute all documents necessary or desirable to effect such severance, Borrower ratifying all that such attorney shall do by virtue thereof.

8.2.4 Delay. No delay or omission to exercise any remedy, right or power accruing upon an Event of Default, or the granting of any indulgence or compromise by Lender shall impair any such remedy, right or power hereunder or be construed as a waiver thereof, but any such remedy, right or power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. A waiver of one Default or Event of Default shall not be construed to be a waiver of any subsequent Default or Event of Default or to impair any remedy, right or power consequent thereon. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Lender reserves the right to seek a deficiency judgment or preserve a deficiency claim in connection with the foreclosure of the Mortgage to the extent necessary to foreclose on all or any portion of the Property, the Rents, the Cash Management Accounts or any other collateral, provided that any deficiency judgment obtained by Lender shall be subject to the terms and provisions of Section 10.1 hereof.

8.2.5 Lender’s Right to Perform. If Borrower fails to perform any covenant or obligation contained herein and such failure shall continue for a period of the greater of (a) ten (10) days after Borrower’s receipt of written notice thereof from Lender and (b) any longer notice requirement or grace period (if any) specifically set forth in this Agreement after Borrower’s receipt of written notice thereof from Lender, without in any way limiting Lender’s right to exercise any of its rights, powers or remedies as provided hereunder, or under any of the other Loan Documents, Lender may, but shall have no obligation to, perform, or cause performance of, such covenant or obligation, and all costs, expenses, liabilities, penalties and fines of Lender incurred or paid in connection therewith shall be payable by Borrower to Lender upon demand and if not paid shall be added to the Debt (and to the extent permitted under applicable laws, secured by the Mortgage and other Loan Documents) and shall bear interest thereafter at the Default Rate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender shall have no obligation to send notice to Borrower of any such failure.

Borrower’s cooperation obligations set forth herein shall continue until the Loan has been paid in full. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 9.1.1, Borrower shall not be required to incur any out-of-pocket expenses (other than the fees and expenses of Borrower’s attorneys, accountants and consultants) in the performance of its obligations under this Section 9.1.1.

PROMPTLY AFTER RECEIPT BY AN INDEMNIFIED PARTY UNDER SECTION 9.1.3 ABOVE OR SECTION 9.1.4 ABOVE OF NOTICE OF THE COMMENCEMENT OF ANY ACTION FOR WHICH A CLAIM FOR INDEMNIFICATION IS TO BE MADE AGAINST BORROWER, SUCH INDEMNIFIED PARTY SHALL NOTIFY BORROWER IN WRITING OF SUCH COMMENCEMENT, BUT THE OMISSION TO SO NOTIFY BORROWER WILL NOT RELIEVE BORROWER FROM ANY LIABILITY THAT IT MAY HAVE TO ANY INDEMNIFIED PARTY HEREUNDER EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THAT FAILURE TO NOTIFY CAUSES PREJUDICE TO BORROWER. IF ANY ACTION IS BROUGHT

 

74


AGAINST ANY INDEMNIFIED PARTY, AND IT NOTIFIES BORROWER OF THE COMMENCEMENT THEREOF, BORROWER 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 OF COMMENCEMENT, TO ASSUME THE DEFENSE THEREOF WITH COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO SUCH INDEMNIFIED PARTY IN ITS DISCRETION. AFTER NOTICE FROM BORROWER TO SUCH INDEMNIFIED PARTY UNDER THIS SECTION 9.1.5, BORROWER 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 BORROWER AND AN INDEMNIFIED PARTY, AND ANY 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 BORROWER, THEN 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.

75


9.1.7 Rating Surveillance. Lender will retain the Rating Agencies to provide rating surveillance services on Securities. The pro rata expenses of such surveillance will be paid for by Borrower based on the applicable percentage of such expenses determined by dividing the then outstanding Principal by the then aggregate outstanding amount of the pool created in the Secondary Market Transaction which includes the Loan.

9.1.8 Severance of Loan. Lender shall have the right, at any time (whether prior to, in connection with, or after any Secondary Market Transaction), with respect to all or any portion of the Loan, to modify, split and/or sever all or any portion of the Loan as hereinafter provided. Without limiting the foregoing, Lender may (i) cause the Note and the Mortgage to be split into a first and second mortgage loan, (ii) create one more senior and subordinate notes (i.e., an A/B or A/B/C structure), (iii) create multiple components of the Note or Notes (and allocate or reallocate the principal balance of the Loan among such components) or (iv) otherwise sever the Loan into two (2) or more loans secured by mortgages, in each such case, in whatever proportion and whatever priority Lender determines; provided, however, in each such instance the outstanding principal balance of all the Notes evidencing the Loan (or components of such Notes) immediately after the effective date of such modification equals the outstanding principal balance of the Loan immediately prior to such modification and the weighted average of the interest rates for all such Notes (or components of such Notes) immediately after the effective date of such modification equals the interest rate of the original Note immediately prior to such modification. If requested by Lender, Borrower (and Borrower’s constituent members, if applicable) shall execute within seven (7) Business Days after such request, such documentation as Lender may reasonably request to evidence and/or effectuate any such modification or severance. Borrower shall not be required to incur any out of pocket costs or expenses in connection with the foregoing (other than the fees and expenses of Borrower’s attorneys, accountants and consultants) or to reduce its rights or increase its obligations or decrease its rights in respect of the Loan (or any portion thereof). Notwithstanding any severance of the Loan into an A/B or A/B/C structure, Lender hereby acknowledges and agrees that Borrower shall only be obligated to obtain any consent and/or approval required under the Loan Documents from, and deliver any notice, financial reports or other items as required under the Loan Documents to, one (1) Person acting as agent designated by Lender, in its sole discretion.

10. MISCELLANEOUS

10.1 Exculpation. The Loan is non-recourse to Borrower and its direct and indirect partners, except as expressly provided below. Subject to the qualifications below, Lender shall not enforce the liability and obligation of Borrower to perform and observe the obligations contained in the Loan Documents by any action or proceeding wherein a money judgment shall be sought against Borrower or against any holder of direct or indirect interests in Borrower, except that Lender may bring a foreclosure action, an action for specific performance or any other appropriate action or proceeding to enable Lender to enforce and realize upon its interest and rights under the Loan Documents, or in the Property, the Rents or any other collateral given to Lender pursuant to the Loan Documents; provided, however, that, except as specifically provided herein, any judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be enforceable against

(d) all Rents of the Property received or collected by or on behalf of the Borrower after an Event of Default and not deposited into the Deposit Account or applied to payment of Principal and interest due under the Note, and to the payment of actual and reasonable operating expenses of the Property, as they become due or payable (except to the extent that such application of such funds is prevented by bankruptcy, receivership, or similar judicial proceeding in which Borrower is legally prevented from directing the disbursement of such sums);

(e) misappropriation by Borrower or the SPE Party (or any Affiliate of Borrower or the SPE Party) (including failure to turn over to Lender on demand following an Event of Default) of tenant security deposits and rents collected in advance, or of funds held by Borrower for the benefit of another party;

 

77


(f) the failure to pay Taxes, provided Borrower shall not be liable (A) to the extent funds to pay such amounts are available in the Tax and Insurance Subaccount and Lender failed to pay same or (B) Rents paid during the tax payment period at issue are insufficient to yield sufficient funds to pay such amounts after the payment of all monthly payments due under the Loan Documents, insurance premiums and other operating and other expenses of the Property; or

particular, and not by way of limitation, by accepting payment after the due date of any amount payable under any Loan Document, Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any right either to require prompt payment when due of all other amounts due under the Loan Documents, or to declare an Event of Default for failure to effect prompt payment of any such other amount.

10.9 Headings/Exhibits. The Section headings in this Agreement are included herein for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement for any other purpose. The Exhibits attached hereto, are hereby incorporated by reference as a part of the Agreement with the same force and effect as if set forth in the body hereof.

10.10 Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

10.11 Preferences. Upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, Lender shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply or reverse and reapply any and all payments by Borrower to any portion of the Debt. To the extent Borrower makes a payment to Lender, or Lender receives proceeds of any collateral, which is in whole or part subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then, to the extent of such payment or proceeds received, the Debt or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continue in full force and effect, as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by Lender. This provision shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement and the repayment of the Debt.

10.12 Waiver of Notice. Borrower shall not be entitled to any notices of any nature whatsoever from Lender except with respect to matters for which this Agreement or any other Loan Document specifically and expressly requires the giving of notice by Lender to Borrower and except with respect to matters for which Borrower is not, pursuant to applicable Legal Requirements, permitted to waive the giving of notice. Borrower hereby expressly waives the right to receive any notice from Lender with respect to any matter for which no Loan Document specifically and expressly requires the giving of notice by Lender to Borrower.

 

81


10.13 Remedies of Borrower. If a claim or adjudication is made that Lender or any of its agents, including Servicer, has acted unreasonably or unreasonably delayed acting in any case where by law or under any Loan Document, Lender or any such agent, as the case may be, has an obligation to act reasonably or promptly, Borrower agrees that neither Lender nor its agents, including Servicer, shall be liable for any monetary damages, and Borrower’s sole remedy shall be to commence an action seeking injunctive relief or declaratory judgment. Any action or proceeding to determine whether Lender has acted reasonably shall be determined by an action seeking declaratory judgment. Borrower specifically waives any claim against Lender and its agents, including Servicer, with respect to actions taken by Lender or its agents on Borrower’s behalf. Nothing in this Section 10.13 shall limit Borrower’s remedies against Lender under this Agreement to the extent that both (i) Lender’s breach of this Agreement arises from the illegal acts, fraud or willful misconduct of Lender and (ii) as a result of such breach, Borrower incurs liability or actual damages to third parties.

10.14 Entire Agreement. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS REPRESENT THE ENTIRE AGREEMENT AMONG THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS AMONG THE PARTIES.

10.15 Offsets, Counterclaims and Defenses. Borrower hereby waives the right to assert a counterclaim, other than a compulsory counterclaim, in any action or proceeding brought against it by Lender or its agents, including Servicer, or otherwise offset any obligations to make payments required under the Loan Documents. Any assignee of Lender’s interest in and to the Loan Documents shall take the same free and clear of all offsets, counterclaims or defenses which Borrower may otherwise have against any assignor of such documents, and no such offset, counterclaim or defense shall be interposed or asserted by Borrower in any action or proceeding brought by any such assignee upon such documents, and any such right to interpose or assert any such offset, counterclaim or defense in any such action or proceeding is hereby expressly waived by Borrower.

10.16 Publicity. All news releases, publicity or advertising by Borrower or its Affiliates through any media intended to reach the general public, which refers to the Loan Documents, the Loan, Lender or any member of the GCM Group, a purchaser of the Loan, the Servicer or the trustee in a Secondary Market Transaction, shall be subject to the prior reasonable written approval of Lender. Additionally, Lender shall not have the right to issue any of the foregoing (other than as permitted under Article 9) without Borrower’s approval, not to be unreasonably, withheld, conditioned or delayed (and which will be deemed given if no response is given within 3 Business Days following written request). Nothing in this Section 10.16 shall prevent either Borrower or Lender from disclosing or accessing any information otherwise deemed confidential under this paragraph (i) in connection with that party’s enforcement of its rights hereunder; (ii) pursuant to any legal requirement, any statutory reporting requirement or any accounting or auditing disclosure requirement applicable to Borrower or Lender; (iii) in connection with performance by either party of its obligations under this Agreement; or (iv) to existing or potential investors, participants or assignees in or of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement or such party’s rights herein.

 

82


10.17 No Usury. It is agreed that Borrower and Lender intend at all times to comply with applicable state law or applicable United States federal law (to the extent that it permits Lender to contract for, charge, take, reserve or receive a greater amount of interest than under state law) governing the maximum rate or amount of interest payable on the Debt and that this Section 10.17 shall control every other agreement in the Loan Documents. In furtherance thereof, Borrower and Lender agree that none of the terms and provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall ever be construed to create a contract to pay for the use, forbearance or detention of monetary interest at a rate in excess of the maximum interest rate permitted to be charged by applicable law and that Borrower shall never be obligated or required to pay interest under this Agreement or any other Loan Document at a rate in excess of the maximum interest rate that may be charged under applicable law. If the applicable law (state or federal) is ever judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount called for under the Note or any other Loan Document, or contracted for, charged, taken, reserved or received with respect to the Debt, or if Lender’s exercise of the option to accelerate the maturity of the Loan or any prepayment by Borrower results in Borrower having paid any interest in excess of that permitted by applicable law, then it is Borrower’s and Lender’s express intent and agreement that all amounts charged in excess of the maximum lawful rate shall be automatically cancelled, ab initio, and all excess amounts theretofore collected by Lender shall be credited against the unpaid Principal and all other Debt (or, if the Debt has been or would thereby be paid in full, refunded to Borrower), and the provisions of the Loan Documents immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new document, so as to comply with applicable law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for thereunder. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Lender for the use, forbearance or detention of the Loan shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the full stated term of the Loan until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Debt does not exceed the maximum lawful rate from time to time in effect and applicable to the Debt for so long as the Debt is outstanding. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, it is not the intention of Lender to accelerate the maturity of any interest that has not accrued at the time of such acceleration or to collect unearned interest at the time of such acceleration.

10.18 Conflict; Construction of Documents. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and any of the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Agreement shall control. The parties hereto acknowledge that each is represented by separate counsel in connection with the negotiation and drafting of the Loan Documents and that the Loan Documents shall not be subject to the principle of construing their meaning against the party that drafted them.

10.19 No Third Party Beneficiaries. The Loan Documents are solely for the benefit of Lender and Borrower and nothing contained in any Loan Document shall be deemed to confer upon anyone other than the Lender and Borrower any right to insist upon or to enforce the performance or observance of any of the obligations contained therein.

10.20 Yield Maintenance Premium. Borrower acknowledges that (a) Lender is making the Loan in consideration of the receipt by Lender of all interest and other benefits intended to be conferred by the Loan Documents and (b) if payments of Principal are made to

 

83


Lender prior to the Stated Maturity Date, for any reason whatsoever, whether voluntary, as a result of Lender’s acceleration of the Loan after an Event of Default, by operation of law or otherwise, Lender will not receive all such interest and other benefits and may, in addition, incur costs. For these reasons, and to induce Lender to make the Loan, Borrower agrees that, except as expressly provided in Article 7 hereof, all prepayments, if any, whether voluntary or involuntary, will be accompanied by the Yield Maintenance Premium. Such Yield Maintenance Premium shall be required whether payment is made by Borrower, by a Person on behalf of Borrower, or by the purchaser at any foreclosure sale, and may be included in any bid by Lender at such sale. Borrower further acknowledges that (A) it is a knowledgeable real estate developer and/or investor; (B) it fully understands the effect of the provisions of this Section 10.20, as well as the other provisions of the Loan Documents; (C) the making of the Loan by Lender at the Interest Rate and other terms set forth in the Loan Documents are sufficient consideration for Borrower’s obligation to pay a Yield Maintenance Premium (if required); and (D) Lender would not make the Loan on the terms set forth herein without the inclusion of such provisions. Borrower also acknowledges that the provisions of this Agreement limiting the right of prepayment and providing for the payment of the Yield Maintenance Premium and other charges specified herein were independently negotiated and bargained for, and constitute a specific material part of the consideration given by Borrower to Lender for the making of the Loan except as expressly permitted hereunder.

10.21 Assignment. The Loan, the Note, the Loan Documents and/or Lender’s rights, title, obligations and interests therein may be assigned by Lender and any of its successors and assigns to any Person at any time in its discretion, in whole or in part, whether by operation of law (pursuant to a merger or other successor in interest) or otherwise. Upon such assignment, all references to Lender in this Loan Agreement and in any Loan Document shall be deemed to refer to such assignee or successor in interest and such assignee or successor in interest shall thereafter stand in the place of Lender. Except in connection with a Transfer and Assumption, Borrower may not assign its rights, title, interests or obligations under this Loan Agreement or under any of the Loan Documents.

10.22 Certain Additional Rights of Lender. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary which may be contained in this Agreement, Lender shall have:

(i) the right to routinely consult with Borrower’s management regarding the significant business activities and business and financial developments of Borrower, provided, however, that such consultations shall not include discussions of environmental compliance programs or disposal of hazardous substances. Consultation meetings should occur on a regular basis (no less frequently than quarterly) with Lender having the right to call special meetings at any reasonable times;

(ii) the right, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, to examine the books and records of Borrower at any time upon reasonable notice;

(iii) the right, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, to receive monthly, quarterly and year-end financial reports of Borrower, including balance sheets, statements of income, shareholder’s equity and cash flow, a management report and schedules of outstanding indebtedness;

 

84


(iv) the right, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, to restrict financing to be obtained with respect to the Property so long as any portion of the Debt remains outstanding;

(v) the right, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, to restrict, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Borrower’s payments of management, consulting, director or similar fees to Affiliates of Borrower from the Rents;

(vi) the right, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (during the continuance of a Cash Management Period), to approve any operating budget and/or capital budget of Borrower;

(vii) the right, without restricting any other rights of Lender under this Agreement (including any similar right), to approve any acquisition by Borrower of any other significant property (other than personal property required for the day to day operation of the Property);

(viii) the right, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, to restrict the transfer of interests in Borrower held by its partners, and the right to restrict the transfer of interests in such partners, except for any transfer that is a Permitted Transfer.

The rights described above may be exercised directly or indirectly by any Person that owns substantially all of the ownership interests in Lender. The provisions of this Section are intended to satisfy the requirement of management rights for purposes of the Department of Labor “plan assets” regulation 29 C.F.R., Section 2510.3-101.

10.23 Set-Off. In addition to any rights and remedies of Lender provided by this Loan Agreement and by law, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender shall have the right, without prior notice to Borrower, any such notice being expressly waived by Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon any amount becoming due and payable by Borrower hereunder (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) to set-off and appropriate and apply against such amount any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by Lender or any Affiliate thereof to or for the credit or the account of Borrower. Lender agrees promptly to notify Borrower after any such set-off and application made by Lender; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.

10.24 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument.
