(e)            any provision of the Loan Documents permitting the recovery of “attorneys’ fees”, “attorneys’ fees and expenses”, “attorneys’ fees and costs” or “attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses” or any similar term shall: (i) include all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses related or incidental to, or incurred in any judicial, arbitration, administrative, probate, appellate, bankruptcy, insolvency or receivership proceeding, as well as in any post-judgment proceeding to collect or enforce any judgment or order relating to the Indebtedness or any of the Loan Documents, as well as any defense or assertion of the rights or claims of Administrative Agent or Lender in respect of any thereof, by litigation or otherwise; and (ii) be separate and several and survive merger into judgment.

Borrower and Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Lender) hereby acknowledge and agree that, as to any clauses or provisions contained in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents to the effect that Borrower (a) represents or warrants on behalf of, or covenants on behalf of, Mortgage Borrower or an Affiliate thereof, (b) shall cause Mortgage Borrower or an Affiliate thereof to act or refrain from acting, to comply with, to permit, to perform, to pay, to furnish, to cure, to remove, to observe, to deliver, to suffer, to initiate, to provide, to make available, to furnish in any manner, or (c) shall cause to occur or not to occur, or otherwise be obligated in any manner with respect to, any matters pertaining to Mortgage Borrower or an Affiliate thereof, such clause or provision is intended to mean, and shall be construed as meaning, (i) that Borrower shall cause Additional Pledgor to cause Mortgage Borrower or such Affiliate to take such action and in all such cases throughout the Loan Documents the words “Borrower shall” or “Borrower shall not” (or words of similar meaning) means “Borrower shall cause Additional Pledgor to cause Mortgage Borrower (or the applicable Affiliate)” or “Borrower shall not permit Additional Pledgor to permit Mortgage Borrower (or the applicable Affiliate)” to so act or not to so act, as applicable, as the context may require (and any instance in the Loan Documents where such words already appear shall not be deemed or construed to mean that any other instance where such words do not appear were not intended to be interpreted as provided above), and (ii) that Borrower is obligated only in Borrower’s capacity with respect to Mortgage Borrower or such Affiliate thereof, and not directly with respect to Mortgage Borrower or such Affiliate thereof in any other manner which would cause Borrower to fail to satisfy the covenants set forth in Section 8.12 of this Agreement, any other similar covenants contained in Borrower’s or Mortgage Borrower’s organizational documents, or any other similar covenants contained in any Loan Documents. With respect to terms defined by cross-reference to the Mortgage Loan Documents or other references to the provisions of the Mortgage Loan Documents, such defined terms shall have the definitions, and such other provisions shall be, as set forth in the Mortgage Loan Documents as of the date hereof (in each case, except that any reference to Mortgage Lender shall be deemed to mean Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Lender)), and no modifications to the Mortgage Loan Documents shall have the effect of changing such definitions or provisions (including changes to other definitions or provisions set forth in the Mortgage Loan Documents that are used in or otherwise modify such cross-referenced definitions or cross-referenced provisions) for the purposes of this Agreement unless Administrative Agent has approved of such modification in writing. Notwithstanding anything stated herein to the contrary, any provisions in this Agreement cross-referencing or incorporating by reference provisions of the Mortgage Loan Documents shall be effective notwithstanding the termination of the Mortgage Loan Documents by payment in full of the Mortgage Loan or otherwise.

LOAN TERMS

 

Section 2.1      The Loan and the Note. The Original Loan Amount was funded to Borrower in accordance with the terms of the Original Loan Agreement and remains outstanding as of the date hereof. Lender agrees, on the terms and conditions of this Agreement, to increase the principal amount of the Loan available to Borrower, and Borrower agrees to accept the entire aggregate principal amount of the Loan, in the amount of THIRTY MILLION TWO HUNDRED SEVENTY THOUSAND SEVEN HUNDRED EIGHTY NINE AND 73/100 DOLLARS ($30,270,789.73), and to repay the Loan in accordance with this Agreement, the Note and the other Loan Documents. The Note evidences the indebtedness of Borrower under the Loan. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the entire increased principal amount of the Loan was advanced by Lender and received by Borrower on the date of this Agreement and that the Loan is fully funded in the stated principal amount thereof.

 

-21-

 

Section 2.2      Interest Rate; Late Charge; Default Rate.

 

(a)            Borrower shall pay interest on the entire principal amount of the Loan at the Interest Rate in accordance with the terms of Section 2.3(a).

 

(b)            All interest accruing on the Loan shall be calculated on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year and the actual number of days in the applicable period for which interest is being calculated.

 

(c)            If any regular monthly installment of principal or interest due under this Agreement, or any monthly deposit for taxes, insurance, replacements and other sums if required under any Loan Document (other than the principal balance of the Loan on the Maturity Date), shall not be paid as required under this Agreement or any other Loan Document within five (5) days following the date the same is due, Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Lender) a late charge (the “Late Charge”) of four cents ($0.04) for each dollar so overdue in order to compensate Lender for its loss of the timely use of the money and frustration of Lender in the meeting of its financial commitments and to defray part of Lender’s incurred cost of collection occasioned by such late payment. Any Late Charge incurred shall be immediately due and payable. If, however, during any consecutive twelve (12) month period Borrower on more than two (2) occasions shall pay any such installment or deposits after the due date thereof (whether prior to or after the time that the Late Charge is payable as above), then the time period after which a Late Charge will be charged and paid shall thereafter be reduced from five (5) days to two (2) Business Days after the applicable due date. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to constitute a waiver or modification of the due date for such installments or deposits or the requirement that Borrower make all payment of installments and deposits as and when the same are due and payable.

 

(d)            Upon an Event of Default or on the Maturity Date, the unpaid principal balance of the Loan shall thereafter bear interest at the per annum interest rate (the “Default Rate”) equal to the lesser of:

 

(i)the highest rate permitted by law to be charged on a promissory note secured by a commercial mortgage, or

 

(ii)the sum of five percent (5%) plus the Interest Rate.

 

Interest at the Default Rate as provided in this Section shall be immediately due and payable to Administrative Agent and shall constitute additional Indebtedness evidenced by the Note and secured by the Loan Documents.

 

-22-

 

 

Section 2.3      Terms of Payment. The Loan shall be payable by Borrower as follows:

 

(a)            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, interest shall not be payable on each Payment Date but shall instead automatically be added to the unpaid principal amount on each Payment Date and upon the Maturity Date and shall thereafter constitute principal for all purposes of this Agreement (the “Capitalized PIK”).

 

(b)            All payments and other amounts due under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be made without any setoff, defense or irrespective of, and without deduction for, counterclaims. The principal amount of the Loan increased by the addition of the Capitalized PIK may be evidenced in writing only by Administrative Agent, which writing shall be deemed to be correct absent manifest error.

 

(c)            From and after the date the Mortgage Loan is no longer outstanding, upon the sale of each Residential Unit in each case accordance with the provisions of Article 16, Borrower shall pay Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Lender) the greater of (i) the applicable Residential Unit Net Sale Proceeds and (ii) the applicable Residential Unit Minimum Release Price (the greater of such amounts described in clause (i) or (ii), as applicable, the “Required Residential Unit Release Proceeds”), to be applied by Administrative Agent on the date Administrative Agent actually receives such funds in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.7(d).

 

(d)            From and after the date the Mortgage Loan is no longer outstanding, upon the sale of the Retail Unit in each case accordance with the provisions of Article 16, Borrower shall pay Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Lender) the greater of (i) the Retail Unit Net Sale Proceeds and (ii) the Retail Unit Minimum Release Price (the greater of such amounts described in clause (i) or (ii), as applicable, the “Required Retail Unit Release Proceeds”), to be applied by Administrative Agent on the date Administrative Agent actually receives such funds in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.7(d).

 

(e)            On the Maturity Date or on any earlier date as a result of an Acceleration Event, Borrower shall pay all outstanding principal, accrued and unpaid interest (inclusive of the Capitalized PIK), and any other amounts due under the Loan Documents. Borrower acknowledges that, since the Loan is interest only and no principal payments are required to be made prior to the Maturity Date or an earlier date as a result of an Acceleration Event, all or a substantial portion of the principal amount of the Loan will be due on the Maturity Date.

 

Section 2.4      Loan Term.

 

(a)            Initial Loan Term. The Loan Term shall commence on the date hereof and terminate on December 22, 2023 (the “Initial Maturity Date”), unless otherwise extended under the provisions of Section 2.4(b).

 

(b)            Extension Option. Upon satisfaction of the Extension Conditions, Borrower shall have the option to extend the Initial Maturity Date of the Loan for two (2) successive terms of one year each (each such option, an “Extension Option” and each successive term, an “Extended Term”). During each Extended Term and except for any time when the Default Rate is applicable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the Loan (including any amounts added to principal under the Loan Documents) shall bear interest at the Interest Rate.

 

-23-

 

 

In connection with (and as a condition to) the exercise by Borrower of an Extension Option, Borrower must satisfy each of the following (collectively, the “Extension Conditions”):

 

(i)            Borrower shall provide Administrative Agent with written notice (the “Extension Notice”) of its intent to exercise such Extension Option not later than sixty (60) days and not earlier than ninety (90) days, prior to the then-applicable Maturity Date, TIME BEING OF THE ESSENCE;

 

(ii)            No Event of Default or Potential Event of Default shall exist as of the date of the applicable Extension Notice and on the first day of the applicable Extended Term;

 

(iii)            Borrower shall pay Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Lender) the applicable Extension Fee prior to the first day of the applicable Extended Term, which Extension Fee shall be earned by Lender as of the date of the applicable Extension Notice; provided, however, if Borrower does not fully satisfy the Extension Conditions, no Extension Fee shall be payable, although Borrower shall remain liable for the payment of the costs set forth in clause (xii) below;

 

(iv)            Intentionally omitted; and

 

(v)            Borrower shall pay all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Administrative Agent and Lender in connection with Borrower exercising its rights under this Section 2.4(b).

 

Section 2.5      Prepayment. There are no full or partial prepayment privileges of the principal amount of the Loan except as set forth in this Agreement:

 

(a)            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, in no event shall the Loan be prepaid in whole or in part prior to the prepayment in full of the Mortgage Loan; provided, that if the Mortgage Loan is being prepaid in full, the Loan may be prepaid in whole or in part simultaneous with such prepayment. Subject to the prior sentence, Borrower may prepay the Loan in whole or in part, without penalty or premium (other than payment of the MOIC Amount as provided below), upon at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Administrative Agent.

 

(b)            If the Maturity Date is accelerated by Administrative Agent because of the occurrence of an Event of Default (an “Acceleration Event”), the acceleration shall be deemed to be an election on the part of Borrower to prepay the Loan.

 

(c)            In connection with any prepayment or repayment of the entire outstanding principal balance of the Loan, Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Lender) the MOIC Amount. It is expressly agreed and understood that payment of the MOIC Amount shall be due under any and all circumstances where the entire outstanding principal balance of the Loan is paid prior to the Maturity Date, whether such payment is voluntary or involuntary, even if such payment results from an Acceleration Event (and irrespective of whether foreclosure proceedings have been commenced), and shall be in addition to any other sums due hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents.

 

-24-

 

 

(d)            Without limiting any other provision of this Agreement, if a Liquidation Event occurs, Borrower shall cause the resulting Net Liquidation Proceeds which are actually received by Borrower to be paid to Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Lender). On the next occurring Payment Date following the date on which Administrative Agent actually receives any such Net Liquidation Proceeds, Borrower is hereby deemed to have authorized Administrative Agent to apply such Net Liquidation Proceeds as a prepayment of the Indebtedness in an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of such Net Liquidation Proceeds. Once Borrower has knowledge that a Liquidation Event has occurred, Borrower shall, or shall cause Mortgage Borrower to, promptly deliver written notice of such Liquidation Event to Administrative Agent. Borrower shall be deemed to have knowledge of (a) a sale (other than a foreclosure sale) of all or any portion of the Mortgaged Property on the date on which a contract of sale for such sale is entered into, and a foreclosure sale, on the date notice of such foreclosure sale is given and (b) a refinancing of all or any portion of the Mortgaged Property, on the date on which a term sheet for such refinancing has been entered into.

 

(e)            The Loan is not a “revolving” loan and, therefore, Borrower may not borrow, repay and reborrow hereunder.

 

(f)            In connection with any prepayment permitted under this Section 2.5, Borrower shall also reimburse Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Lender) for any actual reasonable out-of-pocket costs Administrative Agent and Lender may incur in connection with such prepayment.

 

(g)            There will be due with any principal prepayment, all accrued and unpaid interest on the portion of the principal being prepaid and all other fees, charges and payments due under the Loan Documents.

 

(h)            Borrower acknowledges and agrees that all of the economic terms set forth in the Loan Documents, including the Interest Rate, have been agreed to by Administrative Agent based on Administrative Agent’s and Lender’s expectation that the Loan will not be repaid prior to the Maturity Date. However, in order to accommodate Borrower, Administrative Agent has agreed to permit Borrower to repay the Loan prior to the Maturity Date in accordance with, and subject to, the terms set forth above provided that, and as consideration for such agreement, in connection with any prepayment or repayment of the entire outstanding principal balance of the Loan prior to the Maturity Date, Borrower agrees to pay Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Lender) the MOIC Amount. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that, even if Lender is able to loan the amount prepaid by Borrower to another Person on the same terms and conditions as herein provided, Lender shall not have fully recovered Lender’s lost profits, costs, expenses and damages suffered as a result of such early prepayment; therefore, Borrower and Administrative Agent have agreed on the MOIC Amount as compensation for Lender’s estimated lost profits, costs, expenses and damages resulting from such prepayment. The MOIC Amount shall be paid without prejudice to the right of Administrative Agent to collect any other amounts provided to be paid under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or pursuant to the provisions of law.

 

-25-

 

 

 

Section 2.6     Security. The Loan shall be secured by inter alia (i) the Pledge Agreement creating a first priority lien on the Collateral, (ii) the Environmental Indemnification Agreement, (iii) the Recourse Guaranty Agreement, (iv) the Carry Guaranty, (v) the Completion Guaranty, and (vi) the other Loan Documents.

 

Section 2.7     Payments.

 

(a)            All payments of principal, interest and other amounts to be made by Borrower under the Loan Documents, shall be made in Dollars, in immediately available funds, without deduction, set-off or counterclaim, to Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Lender). All such payments that are regularly scheduled monthly payments of principal, interest or reserves shall be made by Borrower by automatic clearing house (“ACH”) debit of a bank account of Borrower of which Administrative Agent has received at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice. All other payments from Borrower to Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Lender) shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Administrative Agent in writing to Borrower.

 

(b)            If the due date of any payment under the Loan Documents would otherwise fall on a day that is not a Business Day, such date shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and interest shall accrue and be payable for any principal so extended for the period of such extension.

 

(c)            Except for payments received by Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Lender) from the sale by Borrower of Residential Units or the Retail Unit and applied by Administrative Agent in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.7(d) below, each payment received by Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Lender) under the Loan Documents which is not paid by Borrower with respect to a specific Obligation, shall be applied in the following order:

 

(i)First, to the interest (including any Capitalized PIK) due on any Advances made by Lender under the Loan Documents;

 

(ii)Next, to the principal amount of any Advances made by Lender under the Loan Documents;

 

(iii)Next, to Late Charges, attorneys’ fees or any other amount due under any Loan Document save for the amounts described in clauses (iv) and (v) immediately below;

 

(iv)Next, to accrued interest (including any Capitalized PIK) due Lender under the Loan Documents; and

 

(v)Finally, to the principal balance of the Loan and, if such payment will result in the entire outstanding principal balance of the Loan being paid in full prior to the Maturity Date, to payment of the MOIC Amount.

 

-26-

 

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, during the continuance of an Event of Default or in the event that Borrower does not pay the outstanding principal balance due under this Agreement, when due, whether on the Maturity Date or on any earlier date as a result of any Acceleration Event, Administrative Agent, at its option, shall apply any payments it then receives in such order as Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Lender) deems appropriate in its sole discretion.

 

(d)            To the extent Mortgage Borrower has sold a Residential Unit or the Retail Unit and, if the Mortgage Loan shall have been paid in full, Borrower shall pay the Required Residential Unit Release Proceeds or the Required Retail Unit Release Proceeds, as applicable, to Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Lender) in accordance with this Agreement, such payments shall be applied in the following order:

 

(i)First, to the interest (including any Capitalized PIK) due on any Advances made by Lender under the Loan Documents;

 

(ii)Next, to the principal amount of any Advances made by Lender under the Loan Documents;

 

(iii)Next, to Late Charges, attorneys’ fees or any other amount due under any Loan Document save for the amounts described in clauses (iv) and (v) immediately below;

 

(iv)Next, to accrued interest (including any Capitalized PIK) due Lender under the Loan Documents; and

 

(v)Finally, to the principal balance of the Loan and, if such payment will result in the entire outstanding principal balance of the Loan being paid in full prior to the Maturity Date, to payment of the MOIC Amount.

 

(e)            To the extent Mortgage Borrower is entitled to distribute a portion of the Required Residential Unit Release Proceeds and/or Required Retail Unit Release Proceeds to its Upstream Owners (as defined in the Master Loan Agreement) pursuant to Section 2.7(e) of the Mortgage Loan Agreement, Mezzanine Borrower shall deliver such amounts to Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Lender) and such amounts shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.7(d) above.

 

Section 2.8     Changes in Law.

 

(a)            Intentionally Omitted.

 

(b)            In the event that any change in any requirement of law or in the interpretation or application thereof other than charges relating to income, excise, franchise or other taxes applicable to Administrative Agent or Lender, or compliance in good faith by Administrative Agent or Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) hereafter issued by any central bank or other Governmental Authority:

 

(i)shall hereafter have the effect of reducing the rate of return on Lender’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which Lender could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration Lender’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by any amount deemed by Lender to be material; or

 

-27-

 

 

(ii)shall hereafter impose on Administrative Agent or Lender any other condition;

 

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to Lender of making, renewing or maintaining loans or extensions of credit or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder, then, in any such case, Borrower shall promptly pay Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Lender), upon demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate Lender for such additional cost or reduced amount receivable as determined by Lender (collectively, “Increased Costs”). Any determination under this Section 2.8(b) shall be made in good faith and not on an arbitrary or capricious basis. If Lender becomes entitled to claim any Increased Costs pursuant to this Section, Lender (with a copy to Administrative Agent) shall provide Borrower with not less than thirty (30) days’ written notice specifying in reasonable detail the event or circumstance by reason of which it has become so entitled and the additional amount required to fully-compensate Lender for such Increased Costs. A certificate as to any Increased Costs submitted by Lender to Borrower shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. Such certificate shall set forth Lender’s method of calculating the amount of such Increased Costs. In the event Lender makes a request for compensation of Increased Costs in an amount that is greater than ten percent (10%) of the principal balance of the Loan, Borrower shall, upon payment of the same, have the right to prepay the Loan in full without penalty or premium. This provision shall survive the repayment of the Loan and the satisfaction of all other obligations of Borrower under the Loan Documents.

 

(c)            Intentionally Omitted.

 

(d)            All payments made by Borrower under the Loan Documents shall be made free and clear of, and without reduction for or on account of, Foreign Taxes, excluding, in the case of Administrative Agent and Lender, taxes measured by its income, and franchise taxes imposed on it. If any non-excluded Foreign Taxes are required to be withheld from any amounts payable to Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Lender) under the Loan Documents, the amounts so payable to Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Lender) shall be increased to the extent necessary to yield to Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Lender) (after payment of all non-excluded Foreign Taxes) interest or any such other amounts payable under the Loan Documents at the rate or in the amounts specified hereunder. Whenever any non-excluded Foreign Tax is payable pursuant to applicable law by Borrower, as promptly as possible thereafter, Borrower shall send to Administrative Agent an original official receipt, if available, or certified copy thereof showing payment of such non-excluded Foreign Tax. Borrower shall indemnify Administrative Agent and Lender and hold Administrative Agent and Lender harmless from, and be responsible for paying, any incremental taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by Administrative Agent or Lender which may result from any failure by Borrower to pay any such non-excluded Foreign Tax when due to the appropriate taxing authority, or any failure by Borrower to remit to Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Lender) the required receipts or other required documentary evidence. Administrative Agent’s inability to notify Borrower of any such Foreign Tax in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence shall in no way relieve Borrower of its obligations under this Section. As used herein “Foreign Taxes” means, collectively, income, stamp or other taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions, reserves or withholdings imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Governmental Authority, which are imposed, enacted or become effective after the date hereof. As used herein “Governmental Authority” shall mean any court, board, agency, commission, office or other authority of any nature whatsoever, or any governmental unit (federal, state, county, district, municipal, city or otherwise) whether new or hereafter in existence. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the foregoing obligation to pay such additional amounts resulting from the payment of Foreign Taxes and to indemnify Administrative Agent and Lender shall not apply to any Foreign Tax that is imposed on amounts payable to Administrative Agent or Lender under the Loan Documents on the date of this Agreement (or on the date that any Lender becomes a Lender hereunder) or is attributable solely to Administrative Agent’s or Lender’s failure to provide Borrower with proper and sufficient evidence under the IRS Code to establish that it is exempt from (or eligible for a reduced rate of) Foreign Tax with respect to amounts payable under the Loan Documents.

Section 2.9     Mortgage Loan Accounts.

 

(a)            Borrower shall cause Mortgage Borrower to comply with the obligations of Mortgage Borrower set forth in Sections 2.9, 2.10 and 2.11 of the Mortgage Loan Agreement.

 

(b)            Borrower shall not, nor shall Borrower permit or cause Mortgage Borrower to, further pledge, assign or grant any security interest in the Mortgage Loan Accounts or the monies deposited therein (except in certain instances to the New York City Transit Authority in accordance with the Transit Improvement Agreement), or permit any lien or encumbrance to attach thereto, or any levy to be made thereon, except for the security interests granted by Mortgage Borrower in favor of Mortgage Lender pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Documents or in favor of Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Lender) pursuant to the Loan Documents, or any UCC-1 Financing Statements, except those naming Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Lender) or Mortgage Lender as the secured party, to be filed with respect thereto.

 

(c)            If the Mortgage Loan is no longer outstanding or if Mortgage Lender waives the requirement to maintain one or more of the Mortgage Loan Accounts, or if the Mortgage Loan has been repaid in full, (i) Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Lender) shall establish and maintain (or cause Borrower to establish and maintain) such collateral accounts that would operate in the same way as the Mortgage Loan Accounts, or shall use the applicable Mortgage Loan Accounts for such purpose, (ii) if applicable, Borrower and Administrative Agent shall execute and deliver account control agreements with respect to such accounts in the form of the account control agreements executed and delivered by Mortgage Borrower and Mortgage Lender with respect to the applicable Mortgage Loan Accounts, and (iii) Borrower and Administrative Agent shall execute and deliver an amendment to this Agreement, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to all parties, which shall incorporate herein the provisions of Sections 2.9, 2.10 and 2.11 of the Mortgage Loan Agreement, in each case, in substantially the form set forth in the Mortgage Loan Agreement, with such changes as are necessary if the Mortgage Loan has been paid in full.

Section 4.2     Change Orders.

 

(a)            All changes (“Change Orders”) in the Approved Plans (other than minor field changes involving no extra cost (provided that if SCA’s approval of such change is required under the School Unit Purchase Agreement, Borrower shall have caused Mortgage Borrower to have obtained SCA’s written approval thereof and provided a copy thereof to Administrative Agent)) shall be promptly delivered to Administrative Agent. Borrower shall cause Mortgage Borrower to obtain the SCA’s approval or consent to all Change Orders that affect the School Unit or the School Program (as defined in the School Unit Purchase Agreement) (an “SCA Change Order”) in writing and a copy of such approval or consent shall be promptly delivered to Administrative Agent. Borrower agrees to not to cause or permit Mortgage Borrower to permit any work pursuant to any “material” Change Order without Administrative Agent’s prior written approval. A Change Order shall be deemed “material” if it (i) adversely affects the value or changes the use of the Improvements, (ii) alters the unit count below ninety (90) residential units or above ninety-three (93) residential units, (iii) is inconsistent with a luxury residential condominium development as set forth in the Business Plan, (iv) increases or decreases the cost of the Construction Work by more than $200,000.00, (v) when added to other Change Orders not requiring the approval of Administrative Agent (other than Change Orders that Administrative Agent approved in writing), it increases or decreases the cost of the Construction Work by more than $500,000.00 (except that Change Orders necessary to satisfy Legal Requirements of Governmental Authorities shall be permitted to be in excess of the foregoing limit subject to an aggregate cap of $750,000.00), (vi) will cause Mortgage Borrower to be unable to achieve Final Completion of the Construction Work on or before the Completion Date, (vii) requires any consent or approval of the SCA under the School Unit Purchase Agreement that was not obtained, (viii) causes an increase in the hard costs of the School Fit-Out Work (as defined in the School Unit Purchase Agreement) for which Mortgage Borrower is responsible under the School Unit Purchase Agreement, or (ix) constitutes an SCA Change Order. If the cost of the Construction Work is increased by any Change Order and there are insufficient Funds (after any permitted re-allocations of Available Cost Savings and excluding the Contingency Line Item in the Approved Budget, unless specifically approved by Administrative Agent in writing) to pay the increased cost, Borrower shall cause Mortgage Borrower to make an Equity Deposit in the amount of the increased cost with Mortgage Lender (or, if the Mortgage Loan is no longer outstanding or Mortgage Lender has waived the requirement that Mortgage Borrower make such Equity Deposit, with Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Lender)) in cash before permitting any work pursuant to the Change Order. Solely with respect to the matters addressed in this Section 4.2(a), (i) any requests for Administrative Agent approval required pursuant to this Section 4.2(a) may be delivered to Administrative Agent via email to the following email addresses: [__]; [__]; [__], and [__], and (ii) any such requested approvals may be granted or denied by Administrative Agent via reply email from one of the email addresses set forth in the foregoing clause (i).

(b)            Exhibit E attached hereto sets forth a list of all Change Orders known to Borrower as of the Closing Date and, to Borrower’s knowledge, items which have been disclosed in writing to Mortgage Borrower by Contractor as of the Closing Date which would reasonably be expected to result in Change Orders, together with a list of all voided or disputed Change Orders. No such voided Change Orders relate to Construction Work that is required in order to achieve Final Completion.

 

Section 4.3     Progress Reports. Borrower shall deliver (or cause Mortgage Borrower to deliver) to Administrative Agent not less frequently than monthly during construction, a report (each, a “Progress Report”) of the progress of construction of the Improvements, the cost of the Improvements compared to the Line Items in the Approved Budget, the Change Order and pending Change Order logs, the promotion and merchandising efforts for marketing the Residential Units of the Project, current leasing reports (if applicable) with respect to the Retail Unit, and such other data and information concerning the Project as may be reasonably requested by Administrative Agent. Such reports shall be provided on a monthly basis or more frequently if required by Administrative Agent.

 

Section 4.4     Access to Borrower’s Books and Records. Administrative Agent, Lender and their representatives shall have reasonable access to the books, records, contracts, sub contracts, invoices, bills and statements of Borrower, Mortgage Borrower and Additional Pledgor, including any supporting or related vouchers or other instruments.

Section 4.5     Inspections. Administrative Agent, Lender, Inspector and their respective representatives shall at reasonable times upon reasonable prior notice and, at Borrower’s option, accompanied by a representative of Borrower, have the right of entry and access to the Project, and the right to inspect all work done, labor performed and materials furnished on or about the Project; provided that such entry and access to any Condominium Unit that has been conveyed shall be subject to the terms of the Condominium Documents. The Inspector will make periodic inspections of the Construction Work and the Improvements during construction to review and comment on the construction progress and percentage of completion, the conformity with the Approved Plans and Legal Requirements, the activity and coordination among trades, the quality of workmanship, and the accuracy of Mortgage Borrower’s estimates of the percentage of work completed. The Inspector will perform such duties as Administrative Agent and/or Lender deems necessary or desirable. Borrower shall pay the reasonable fees of the Inspector within ten (10) days following written demand therefor. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that all inspections by Administrative Agent, Lender or their representatives, including but not limited to Inspector, are solely for the purpose of protecting the security of Lender. No such inspection shall constitute a representation by Administrative Agent or Lender to any person that the Improvements comply with the Approved Plans and the Legal Requirements, or that the construction is free from faulty materials or workmanship, nor shall any inspection by Administrative Agent or Lender or their representatives, including but not limited to Inspector, constitute approval of any certification or representation given to Administrative Agent or Lender or relieve any person making such certification or representation from the responsibility therefor.

Section 4.7     Liens. Borrower shall cause Mortgage Borrower to keep the Project free from all Liens (other than Permitted Encumbrances) other than as expressly set forth in this Section 4.7.

If Borrower does not cause Mortgage Borrower to cause the release or discharge of such Lien within said thirty (30) days, subject to the rights of Mortgage Lender under the Mortgage Loan Agreement, Lender may make an Advance to pay such Lien. Administrative Agent’s and Lender’s rights under this Section shall not be affected by any claim of Borrower or Mortgage Borrower that the Lien is invalid. Borrower agrees to reimburse Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Lender) for any Advance made under this Section 4.7, together with interest at the Default Rate until the date of reimbursement.

 

Section 4.8     Disputes Endangering Substantial Completion or Final Completion.

All sums paid or agreed to be paid under this Section 4.8 shall be for the account of Borrower and constitute an Advance, and Borrower agrees to reimburse Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Lender) for all such Advances, together with interest at the Default Rate until the date of reimbursement.

Section 4.4     Balancing. If at any time during the term of the Loan, Mortgage Lender reasonably determines that the Mortgage Loan is Out of Balance but waives or otherwise elects not to enforce the terms of Section 3.11 of the Master Loan Agreement, at Administrative Agent’s option, Borrower shall cause Mortgage Borrower to make an additional Equity Deposit to Mortgage Lender in accordance with the terms of the Mortgage Loan Agreement in an amount sufficient to bring the Mortgage Loan “in balance” within twenty (20) Business Days following demand from Administrative Agent. Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, it is expressly understood and agreed that Borrower shall cause Mortgage Borrower to cause the Mortgage Loan to be “in balance” at all times.

(a)            Property Insurance. Borrower shall cause Mortgage Borrower to obtain and maintain, or cause to be maintained, insurance for Mortgage Borrower and the Mortgaged Property satisfying the requirements of Section 5.1 of the Mortgage Loan Agreement (regardless of whether the Mortgage Loan has been repaid or has otherwise been terminated or any such provisions thereof have been waived by Mortgage Lender).

 

-34-

 

 

(b)            Evidence of Insurance by Acceptable Insurers. At all times during the term of the Loan, Borrower shall cause Mortgage Borrower or shall cause Mortgage Borrower to cause the Condominium Association to provide to Administrative Agent the following evidences of insurance: (i) an ACORD 28 (current version) Evidence of Property Insurance provided by an authorized insurance agent, broker or insurance company and all policy endorsements requested by Mortgage Lender and/or Administrative Agent; and (ii) an ACORD 25 (current version) Certificate of Liability Insurance, provided by an authorized insurance agent, broker or insurance company confirming coverages are maintained for liability insurance as required to be carried by Mortgage Borrower. The foregoing evidence shall be provided to Administrative Agent at least five (5) Business Days prior to the expiration date of each such policy. Each evidence of insurance and certificate must include a loss payee clause satisfactory to Administrative Agent, and any Certificate of Liability Insurance must name each of Administrative Agent and Lender as an Additional Insured for Commercial General and Excess/Umbrella Liability with respect to the Premises. Each insurance company providing coverage must have an A.M. Best rating of A-X or better.

 

(c)            Blanket Insurance Policies. The insurance requirements under Article 5 of the Mortgage Loan Agreement may be satisfied by maintaining either individual policies covering only the Premises, or blanket insurance policies covering multiple properties, provided that with respect to any blanket insurance policies Borrower also covenants to cause Mortgage Borrower to either immediately reinstate any limits and coverages which are used, reduced or cancelled back up to the blanket policy limits approved by Administrative Agent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), or to secure individual policy coverages for the Premises satisfying these insurance requirements. Borrower will deliver (or cause Mortgage Borrower to deliver) to Administrative Agent a Schedule of Locations Insured under any blanket insurance policy together with the related certificates of insurance.

 

(d)            Miscellaneous Insurance Requirements. All insurance policies and endorsements required pursuant to this Agreement and the Mortgage Loan Agreement must be reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent and shall: (i) be endorsed to name Administrative Agent and Lender as additional insureds thereunder, as its interest may appear; (ii) be fully paid for and contain such provisions and expiration dates and be in such form and issued by such insurance companies licensed to do business in the State; and (iii) without limiting the foregoing, provide that such policy or endorsement may not be canceled except upon at least thirty (30) days’ (or, in the case of cancellation for nonpayment of the applicable premium, ten (10) days’) prior written notice of intention of non-renewal or cancellation to Administrative Agent, and that, with respect to property policies, no act or thing done by Borrower, Mortgage Borrower, Additional Pledgor, Administrative Agent or Lender shall invalidate the policy as against Administrative Agent or Lender. Within ten (10) Business Days following a request by Administrative Agent, Borrower shall deliver (or cause Mortgage Borrower to deliver) to Administrative Agent copies of all policies including all endorsements and renewals thereof, certified by the insurance company or authorized agent, together with all endorsements required hereunder and any other insurance policy information and other related information (such as “Probable Maximum Loss” or “Scenario Upper Loss” studies) as Administrative Agent may reasonably request from time to time. Borrower may request an extension of time not exceeding sixty (60) days to deliver copies of the foregoing policies, endorsements and renewals or certified copies thereof if (1) Borrower has done all things reasonably necessary to cause Mortgage Borrower to obtain the issuance of the policies, endorsements and renewals including the payment of all premiums therefor, and (2) Borrower has delivered (or caused Mortgage Borrower to deliver) to Administrative Agent within the above ten (10) day period an insurance binder and evidence of insurance reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent issued by the insurer showing all required coverage to be in full force and effect for the succeeding twelve (12) month period along with evidence reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent of payment in full of all premiums. If Borrower fails to cause Mortgage Borrower to maintain insurance in compliance with this Agreement and the Mortgage Loan Agreement, so long as, if the Mortgage Loan is outstanding, Administrative Agent shall have first consulted with Mortgage Lender and received written confirmation from Mortgage Lender that it has elected not to procure such insurance, Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) obtain such insurance and make Advances to pay the premium therefore.

Any such contest shall be prosecuted with due diligence, and Borrower shall promptly pay (or cause Mortgage Borrower to pay) the amount of such Imposition as finally determined, together with all interest, penalties, costs and charges payable in connection therewith. Administrative Agent shall have full power and authority to apply any amount deposited with Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Lender) under this Section 7.3(b) to the payment of any unpaid Imposition to prevent the sale of any tax lien or the sale or forfeiture of the Mortgaged Property (or any portion thereof) for non-payment thereof. Neither Administrative Agent nor Lender shall have liability, however, for failure to so apply any amount deposited unless Borrower requests the application of such amount to the payment of the particular Imposition for which such amount was deposited. Any surplus retained by Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Lender) after payment of the Imposition for which a deposit was made shall be repaid to Borrower unless an Event of Default shall have occurred, in which case said surplus may be retained by Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Lender) to be applied to the Indebtedness. Notwithstanding any provision of this Section 7.3(b) to the contrary, Borrower shall pay (or cause Mortgage Borrower to pay) any Imposition which it might otherwise be entitled to contest if, in the reasonable opinion of Administrative Agent, failure to pay will result in a tax certificate or other sale of the tax lien or the Mortgaged Property (or any portion thereof) is in jeopardy or in danger of being forfeited or foreclosed; or, subject to the rights of Mortgage Lender under the Mortgage Loan Agreement, Lender may make an Advance to pay the same. Additionally, in such event, subject to the rights of Mortgage Lender under the Mortgage Loan Agreement, if Lender is prevented by law or judicial or administrative order from paying such Imposition and Borrower fails to pay (or cause Mortgage Borrower to pay) the same, then Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Lender), at its option, may declare the entire Indebtedness immediately due and payable.

(c)          To the extent cash flow from the Mortgaged Property is insufficient to pay same, Carry Costs (as defined in the Master Loan Agreement) shall be disbursed by Mortgage Lender (or Administrative Agent, if applicable, pursuant to Section 2.9(c)) from the Carry Cost Reserve Account (as defined in the Master Loan Agreement) in accordance with, and subject to, the terms and conditions of disbursement in the Mortgage Loan Agreement. To the extent Mortgage Borrower fails to satisfy the conditions of disbursement in the Mortgage Loan Agreement or if there are insufficient funds on deposit in the Carry Cost Reserve Account or cash flow from the Mortgaged Property, Borrower shall cause Mortgage Borrower to pay the Carry Costs that would otherwise be funded from the Carry Cost Reserve Account or from cash flow from the Mortgaged Property; provided that if an Event of Default exists, Borrower shall cause Mortgage Borrower to deposit with Mortgage Lender (or, if the Mortgage Loan is no longer outstanding or if Mortgage Lender has waived the obligation of Mortgage Borrower to deposit such amounts, with Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Lender)), monthly, on each Payment Date, 1/12th of the annual charges (as reasonably estimated by Mortgage Lender or Administrative Agent, as applicable) for Impositions and insurance premiums, and, if required by Mortgage Lender or Administrative Agent, as applicable, 1/12th of the annual charges for rent (if Mortgage Borrower is lessee of an interest in any of the Mortgaged Property) with respect to the Mortgaged Property. If required by Mortgage Lender or Administrative Agent, as applicable, Borrower shall also deposit with Mortgage Lender or Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Lender), as applicable, simultaneously with such monthly deposits, a sum of money which together with such monthly deposits will be sufficient to make the payment of each such charge at least fifteen (15) days prior to the date initially due. Should such charges not be ascertainable at the time any deposit is required to be made, the deposit shall be made on the basis of the charges for the prior year or payment period, as reasonably estimated by Mortgage Lender or Administrative Agent, as applicable. When the charges are fixed for the then current year or period, Borrower shall cause Mortgage Borrower to deposit any deficiency on demand. All funds deposited with Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Lender) shall be held without interest (unless the payment of interest thereon is required under applicable law), may be commingled with Administrative Agent’s other funds, and shall be applied in payment of the foregoing charges when and as payable provided that no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. Should an Event of Default occur and be continuing, the funds so deposited may be applied in payment of the charges for which such funds shall have been deposited or to the payment of the Indebtedness or any other charges affecting the Mortgaged Property, as Administrative Agent in its sole discretion may determine, but no such application shall be deemed to have been made by operation of law or otherwise until actually made by Administrative Agent as herein provided. Borrower shall provide (or cause Mortgage Borrower to provide) Administrative Agent with bills and all other documents necessary for the payment of the foregoing charges within ten (10) Business Days following Borrower’s receipt of the same, but in any event at least fifteen (15) days prior to the date on which each payment thereof shall first become due.

  

Section 7.7           Operating Expenses. Borrower shall cause Mortgage Borrower to use any cash flow from the Mortgaged Property to pay all operating expenses of the Mortgaged Property and all payments due under the Loan Documents and the Mortgage Loan Documents.

Section 8.15        Legal Requirements and Maintenance of Mortgaged Property. To the best of Borrower’s knowledge, except as disclosed to Administrative Agent in writing, the Mortgaged Property is, in all material respects, in compliance with all Legal Requirements. Borrower shall comply, and shall cause Mortgage Borrower to comply, with all Legal Requirements in all material respects, subject to Borrower’s and Mortgage Borrower’s right to contest the same in accordance with this Agreement and the Mortgage Loan Agreement. Borrower shall permit Administrative Agent, Lender and their respective agents to enter upon and inspect: (a) the areas of the Mortgaged Property which are open to the public at all reasonable hours without prior notice and (b) subject to the rights of tenants under the Leases and fee simple owners of portions of the Mortgaged Property conveyed in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Mortgage Loan Agreement, all other areas of the Mortgaged Property during regular business hours upon at least 48 hours prior written notice, except that no notice shall be required in the event of an emergency. Except as expressly contemplated herein, Borrower shall not (and shall not cause or permit Mortgage Borrower to), without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent, which consent may be granted or withheld in Administrative Agent’s sole and absolute discretion: (a) change the use of the Premises from that contemplated in the Business Plan; (b) cause or permit the use or occupancy of any part of the Premises to be discontinued if such discontinuance would violate any zoning or other law, ordinance or regulation; (c) apply for or consent to any subdivision (other than the contemplated subdivision of the Residential Unit), re-subdivision (other than the contemplated subdivision of the Residential Unit), zoning reclassification, modification or restriction affecting the Premises; (d) commit or knowingly permit any waste, structural or material addition to or material alteration, demolition or removal of the Mortgaged Property (except alterations required pursuant to an Acceptable Lease) or any portion thereof (provided that Equipment may be removed if obsolete or if replaced with similar items of equal or greater value); (e) take any action whatsoever to apply for, consent to, or acquiesce in the conversion of the Mortgaged Property, or any portion thereof, to a condominium or cooperative form of ownership, or (f) take any action whatsoever to apply for, consent to or acquiesce in any subdivision (other than the contemplated subdivision of the Residential Unit) or re-subdivision (other than the contemplated subdivision of the Residential Unit) of the Mortgaged Property, or any portion thereof.

Section 8.16        Solvency. (1) None of Borrower, Additional Pledgor, Mortgage Borrower, or Indemnitor has entered into the transaction contemplated by this Agreement or any Loan Document, or the Mortgage Loan Agreement or any Mortgage Loan Document, with the actual intent to hinder, delay, or defraud any creditor, and (2) Borrower, Additional Pledgor, Mortgage Borrower and Indemnitor have each received reasonably equivalent value in exchange for its obligations under the Loan Documents and the Mortgage Loan Documents. The fair saleable value of Borrower’s assets is, as of the date hereof, and will, immediately following the making of the initial disbursement of the Loan on the date hereof, be greater than Borrower’s liabilities, including the maximum amount of its contingent liabilities on its debts as such debts become absolute and matured. Borrower’s assets do not and, immediately following the making of the Loan will not, constitute unreasonably small capital for such entity 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 debt and other liabilities (including contingent liabilities and other commitments) beyond its ability to pay such debt and liabilities as they mature (taking into account the timing and amounts of cash to be received by it and the amounts to be payable on or in respect of obligations of such party). Other than the bankruptcy of Indemnitor’s predecessor, Syms Corp., filed in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware in 2011 as In re Filene’s Basement, LLC, et al., Case No. 11-13511-KJC (Bankr. D. Del), no petition in bankruptcy has been filed against Borrower, Additional Pledgor, Mortgage Borrower or any Indemnitor or any Principal and none of Borrower, Additional Pledgor, Mortgage Borrower or Indemnitor has ever made an assignment for the benefit of creditors or taken advantage of any insolvency act for the benefit of debtors. None of Borrower, Additional Pledgor, Mortgage Borrower or Indemnitor has been involved in a foreclosure or in a default on any indebtedness owing to Lender or to any affiliate of Lender or, in the case of Borrower, Additional Pledgor or Mortgage Borrower, on any other indebtedness obtained for commercial purposes. All financial and other information submitted by or on behalf of Borrower, Mortgage Borrower, Additional Pledgor and Indemnitor to Administrative Agent in connection with the Loan is true, complete and correct in all material respects. All of Borrower’s, Additional Pledgor’s, Mortgage Borrower’s obligations to creditors, including, but not limited to, all payments and accounts relating to the Premises, are current.

Without limiting Administrative Agent’s right to withhold its consent to any Conveyance, any Conveyance must not be to a tenancy in common or an OFAC Prohibited Person. All requests for Administrative Agent’s consent under this Section 10.1 shall be on a form previously approved by Administrative Agent and shall be accompanied by the payment of Administrative Agent’s standard processing fee for such transactions then in effect.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Administrative Agent shall not unreasonably withhold, delay or condition its consent to easements or access licenses (or amendments thereto), nor shall Administrative Agent require a change in the terms of the Loan in connection with a request for consent to easements or access licenses (or amendments thereto) so long as such easements or access licenses do not have an adverse impact on the use, operation or value of the Mortgaged Property or the Collateral.

The names and addresses of the registered owners of such notes, the transfers or assignment of such notes and the names and addresses of the transferees of such notes will be registered in the Register under such reasonable regulations as Administrative Agent may prescribe. Borrower, Administrative Agent and Lender shall deem and treat the registered owner of any note as shown in the Register as the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and none of Borrower, Administrative Agent or Lender shall be affected by any notice to the contrary and payment of the principal of, interest on, and MOIC Amount, as applicable, if any, due on or with respect to the related note shall be made only to or upon the order of such registered owner.

Section 14.16       Limitation on Interest. It is the intention of the parties hereto to conform strictly to applicable usury laws. Accordingly, all agreements between Borrower, Administrative Agent and Lender with respect to the Loan are hereby expressly limited so that in no event, whether by reason of acceleration of maturity or otherwise, shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid to Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Lender) or charged by Lender for the use, forbearance or detention of the money to be lent hereunder or otherwise, exceed the maximum amount allowed by law. If the Loan would be usurious under applicable law (including the laws of the State and the laws of the United States of America), then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Loan Documents: (a) the aggregate of all consideration which constitutes interest under applicable law that is contracted for, taken, reserved, charged or received under the Loan Documents shall under no circumstances exceed the maximum amount of interest allowed by applicable law, and any excess shall be credited to the outstanding principal of the Loan; and (b) if the Maturity Date is accelerated by reason of an election by Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms hereof, or in the event of any prepayment, then any consideration which constitutes interest may never include more than the maximum amount allowed by applicable law. In such case, excess interest, if any, provided for in the Loan Documents or otherwise, to the extent permitted by applicable law, shall be amortized, pro-rated, allocated and spread from the date of advance until payment in full thereof so that the actual rate of interest is uniform through the term hereof. If such amortization, pro-ration, allocation and spreading is not permitted under applicable law, then such excess interest shall be cancelled automatically on the Note as of the date of such acceleration or prepayment and, if theretofore paid, shall be credited to the outstanding principal of the Loan. The terms and provisions of this Section 14.16 shall control and supersede every other provision of the Loan Documents. The Loan Documents are contracts made under and shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State as set forth in Section 14.19, except that if at any time the laws of the United States of America permit Administrative Agent or Lender to contract for, take, reserve, charge or receive a higher rate of interest than is allowed by the laws of the State (whether such federal laws directly so provide or refer to the law of any state), then such federal laws shall to such extent govern as to the rate of interest which Administrative Agent or Lender may contract for, take, reserve, charge or receive under the Loan Documents.

Section 14.17       Survival. All of the representations, warranties, covenants, and indemnities of Borrower hereunder (other than relating to environmental matters which are instead addressed in the Environmental Indemnification Agreement) shall survive (a) until full and final repayment of the entire Indebtedness (including satisfaction of any outstanding obligations under the Recourse Guaranty Agreement), (b) the transfer (by sale, foreclosure, conveyance in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise) of any or all right, title and interest in and to the Mortgaged Property to any party, and (c) any assignment by Lender of any interest in the Loan hereunder in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

 

Section 14.18       WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. BORROWER, ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND LENDER EACH HEREBY WAIVES THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING BASED UPON, OR RELATED TO, THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS AGREEMENT.

BORROWER FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT BORROWER HAS BEEN REPRESENTED (OR HAS HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE REPRESENTED) IN THE SIGNING OF THIS AGREEMENT BY INDEPENDENT LEGAL COUNSEL SELECTED BY BORROWER AND THAT BORROWER HAS HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO DISCUSS THIS WAIVER WITH COUNSEL.

 

Section 14.19       Governing Law.

Interpretation and construction of this Agreement shall be according to the contents hereof and without presumption or standard of construction in favor of or against Borrower, Administrative Agent or Lender.

 

Section 14.20      Consent to Jurisdiction and Venue. Borrower hereby submits to personal jurisdiction in the State of New York for the enforcement of the provisions of this Agreement and irrevocably waives any and all rights to object to such jurisdiction for the purposes of litigation to enforce any provision of this Agreement. Borrower hereby consents to the jurisdiction of and agrees that any action, suit or proceeding to enforce this Agreement may be brought in any state or federal court in the state in which the Premises are located. Borrower hereby irrevocably waives any objection that it may have to the laying of the venue of any such actions, suit, or proceeding in any such court and hereby further irrevocably waives any claim that any such action, suit or proceeding brought in such a court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

Section 14.21       Mortgage Loan Matters.

 

(a)          Notices. Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent, promptly after the receipt or delivery, a copy of any notice of default received or sent by Borrower, Mortgage Borrower or Additional Pledgor with respect to the Mortgage Loan, and of any other material written correspondence (including electronically transmitted items) given or received by Mortgage Borrower or Indemnitor to or from Mortgage Lender or its agents.

 

(b)          Independent Approval Rights. Unless expressly set forth in this Agreement, if any action, proposed action or other decision is consented to or approved by Mortgage Lender, such consent or approval shall not be binding or controlling on Administrative Agent. Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that (i) the risks of Mortgage Lender in making the Mortgage Loan are different from the risks of Lender in making the Loan, (ii) in determining whether to grant, deny, withhold or condition any requested consent or approval, Mortgage Lender and Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Lender) may reasonably reach different conclusions, and (iii) Administrative Agent has an absolute independent right to grant, deny, withhold or condition any requested consent or approval based on its own point of view, but subject to the standards of consent set forth herein. Furthermore, the denial by Administrative Agent of a requested consent or approval shall not create any liability or other obligation of Administrative Agent or Lender if the denial of such consent or approval results directly or indirectly in a default under the Mortgage Loan Documents, and Borrower hereby waives any claim of liability against Administrative Agent and Lender arising from any such denial unless Borrower has any rights or remedies available to such denial failing to be in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document. The rights described above may be exercised by any entity which owns and controls, directly or indirectly, substantially all of the interests in Administrative Agent or Lender.

 

(c)            Intercreditor Agreement. Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that any intercreditor agreement entered into between Lender and Mortgage Lender will be solely for the benefit of Lender and Mortgage Lender, and that none of Borrower, Mortgage Borrower or Additional Pledgor shall be third-party beneficiaries (intended or otherwise) of any of the provisions therein, have any rights thereunder, or be entitled to rely on any of the provisions contained therein. Lender and Mortgage Lender have no obligation to disclose to Borrower, Mortgage Borrower or Additional Pledgor the contents of any such intercreditor agreement. Borrower’s obligations hereunder are and will be independent of any such intercreditor agreement and shall remain unmodified by the terms and provisions thereof. In the event that (i) the Mortgage Loan is in default (or the receipt by Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Lender) of a payment would cause the Mortgage Loan to be in default or would be in breach of any intercreditor agreement between Lender and Mortgage Lender), (ii) Lender is required pursuant to the terms of any intercreditor agreement between Lender and Mortgage Lender to pay over to Mortgage Lender any payment or distribution of assets, whether in cash, property or securities which is applied to the Indebtedness, including any proceeds of the Mortgaged Property or any other collateral for the Indebtedness previously received by Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Lender) on account of the Loan, (iii) Lender has actually paid over such amounts to Mortgage Lender, and (iv) Lender has not received such amounts in return, then Borrower agrees to indemnify Administrative Agent and Lender for any amounts so paid, and any amount so paid shall continue to be owing pursuant to the Loan Documents as part of the Indebtedness notwithstanding the prior receipt of such payment by Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Lender).

Other than in connection with a prepayment of the Mortgage Loan pursuant to Section 2.5(a), Borrower shall not make or permit to be made (i) any partial or full prepayment of amounts owing under the Mortgage Loan without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent or (ii) any refinancing of the Mortgage Loan without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent as to both the identity of the refinancing lender and any intercreditor agreement entered into in connection therewith, in each case as to clause (i) and (ii), not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.

 

(e)            Compliance with Mortgage Loan Documents. Borrower shall cause each of Mortgage Borrower and Additional Pledgor to: (i) diligently perform and observe in all material respects all of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Mortgage Loan Documents on the part of Mortgage Borrower or Additional Pledgor to be performed and observed within any applicable notice and cure periods under the Mortgage Loan Documents; (ii) not enter into or be bound by any Mortgage Loan Documents not in effect on the date hereof, agree to any material modifications, consolidation, restatement, or waiver of any existing Mortgage Loan Documents, grant to Mortgage Lender any consent or waiver, or exercise any remedy available to Mortgage Borrower or Additional Pledgor under the Mortgage Loan Documents or any right or election under the Mortgage Loan Documents, in each case without the prior written approval of Administrative Agent; and (iii) provide Administrative Agent with a copy of any amendment or modification of, or waiver or consent granted under, the Mortgage Loan Documents within five (5) Business Days after its receipt thereof.

 

(f)            Mortgage Loan Defaults. If any Mortgage Loan Event of Default occurs under the Mortgage Loan Documents, Borrower agrees that Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Lender) shall have the immediate right to (but shall be under no obligation to), without prior notice to Borrower: (i) pay all or any part of the Mortgage Loan and any other sums that are then due and payable, and perform any act or take any action on behalf of Borrower, Mortgage Borrower and/or Additional Pledgor as may be appropriate, to cause all of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Mortgage Loan Documents on the part of Mortgage Borrower or Additional Pledgor to be performed or observed thereunder to be promptly performed or observed; and (ii) pay any other amounts and take any other action as Administrative Agent, in its sole and absolute discretion, shall deem necessary or reasonably advisable to protect or preserve the rights and interests of Administrative Agent and Lender in the Loan and/or the Collateral. Borrower shall not impede, interfere with, hinder or delay, and shall not permit Mortgage Borrower or Additional Pledgor to impede, interfere with, hinder or delay, any effort or action on the part of Administrative Agent or Lender to cure any default or asserted default under the Mortgage Loan, or to otherwise protect or preserve Administrative Agent’s and Lender’s interests in the Loan and the Collateral following a default or asserted default under the Mortgage Loan. Borrower hereby grants Administrative Agent, Lender and their respective designees the right to enter upon the Mortgaged Property at any time while an Event of Default exists, or the assertion by Mortgage Lender that an Event of Default has occurred, under the Mortgage Loan Documents, for the purpose of taking any such action or to appear in, defend or bring any action or proceeding to protect Administrative Agent’s and/or Lender’s interest. Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Lender) may take such action as Administrative Agent deems necessary to carry out the intents and purposes of this Section 14.21 (including communicating with Mortgage Lender with respect to any Mortgage Loan defaults), without prior notice to, or consent from, Borrower, Mortgage Borrower or Additional Pledgor. Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to complete any cure or attempted cure undertaken or commenced by Administrative Agent. All sums so paid and the costs and expenses incurred by Administrative Agent and Lender in exercising rights under this Section 14.21 (including its reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs) (A) shall be added to the Indebtedness, (B) shall bear interest at the Default Rate for the period from the date that such costs or expenses were incurred to the date of payment to Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Lender), and (C) shall be secured by the Pledge Agreement. Borrower hereby indemnifies Administrative Agent and Lender from and against all losses of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against Administrative Agent or Lender as a result of the foregoing actions, excluding such Losses arising from the gross negligence, willful misconduct or illegal acts of Administrative Agent or Lender. In the event that Administrative Agent or Lender makes any payment in respect of the Mortgage Loan, Administrative Agent and Lender shall be subrogated to all of the rights of Mortgage Lender under the Mortgage Loan Documents against the Mortgaged Property, in addition to all other rights it may have under the Loan Documents. If Administrative Agent shall receive a copy of any notice of default under the Mortgage Loan Documents sent by Mortgage Lender, such notice shall constitute full protection to Administrative Agent for any action taken or omitted to be taken by Administrative Agent, in good faith, in reliance thereon. As a material inducement to Lender’s making the Loan, Borrower hereby absolutely and unconditionally releases and waives all claims against Administrative Agent and Lender arising out of Administrative Agent’s or Lender’s exercise of its rights and remedies provided in this Section 14.21(f), except for Administrative Agent’s or Lender’s gross negligence, or willful misconduct.

(g)          Material Contracts. Borrower shall not, and shall not cause or permit Mortgage Borrower or Additional Pledgor to, without Administrative Agent’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), enter into, modify, surrender, terminate, or waive any provision of, any Material Contracts to which it is a party.

 

(h)            [Intentionally Omitted].

 

(i)            [Intentionally Omitted].

 

(j)            Acquisition of the Mortgage Loan. None of Borrower, Mortgage Borrower, Additional Pledgor, Indemnitor, or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing shall acquire or agree to acquire the Mortgage Loan, or any portion thereof or any interest therein, or any direct or indirect ownership interest in the holder of the Mortgage Loan, via purchase, transfer, exchange, operation of law, or otherwise. If, solely by operation of applicable subrogation law, Borrower, Mortgage Borrower, Additional Pledgor, Indemnitor, or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing shall have failed to comply with the foregoing, then Borrower shall (i) immediately notify Administrative Agent of such failure, and (ii) cause any and all such prohibited parties acquiring any interest in the Mortgage Loan to (A) discontinue and terminate any enforcement proceeding(s) under the Mortgage Loan Documents, and (B) without limiting the foregoing, pay over to Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Lender) any and all payments or proceeds received on account of the Mortgage Loan or the exercise of any rights or remedies with respect thereto.

 

-87-

 

  

(k)            Deed in Lieu of Foreclosure. Without the express prior written consent of Administrative Agent, Borrower shall not, and Borrower shall not cause, suffer or permit Mortgage Borrower to, enter into, execute, deliver, or consent to, as the case may be, any deed-in-lieu or other consensual foreclosure with or for the benefit of Mortgage Lender or any other Person; provided that, in the event that Borrower shall tender to Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Lender) an assignment-in-lieu of foreclosure of the Pledge Agreement in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent, and Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Lender) shall have declined to accept such tender (which Administrative Agent may do in its sole and absolute discretion, it being understood and agreed that failure of Administrative Agent to accept such assignment-in-lieu of foreclosure within sixty (60) days after Borrower’s tender shall be deemed to constitute Administrative Agent’s declining to accept such assignment-in-lieu), Borrower shall have the right, but not the obligation, to cause or permit Mortgage Borrower to tender to Mortgage Lender or its designee a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure of the Mortgage without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent (but without waiving or limiting any of Borrower’s other obligations or liabilities under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents).

 

(l)            Distributions. Subject to the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents, on each date on which amounts are due and payable to Lender pursuant to the Loan Documents and/or are required to be disbursed to Lender pursuant to the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents, Borrower shall exercise its rights under the organizational documents of Mortgage Borrower to cause Mortgage Borrower to make a distribution of funds to Borrower in an amount sufficient to allow Borrower to make such required payment to Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Lender), but only to the extent cash flow from the Mortgaged Property, after the payment of all amounts payable with respect to the Mortgage Loan, that is made available to Borrower (and not trapped by Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Lender) or Mortgage Lender) is sufficient to do so (provided that the foregoing is not intended to limit any of Borrower’s obligations under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents). Subject to the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents, during the existence of an Event of Default, Borrower shall not, and shall not cause Mortgage Borrower to, make any distributions of any kind, returns of capital, or repayment of any loans (in each case whether in cash, assets, equity interests, or proceeds of any kind) to any Person that owns any direct or indirect equity interest in Borrower.

 

(m)            Discussions with Mortgage Lender and Manager. In connection with the exercise of its rights set forth in the Loan Documents, Administrative Agent and Lender shall have the right at any time to discuss the Mortgaged Property, the Mortgage Loan, the Loan, and any other matter directly with Mortgage Lender and Property Manager and their respective consultants, agents or representatives, as applicable, without notice to or permission from Borrower, nor shall Administrative Agent or Lender have any obligation to disclose such discussions or the contents thereof to Borrower or any other Person.

 

Section 14.22       Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents embody the entire agreement and understanding between Administrative Agent, Lender and Borrower and supersede all prior agreements and understandings between such parties relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof. Accordingly, the Loan Documents may not be contradicted by evidence of prior, contemporaneous, or subsequent oral agreements of the parties. There are no unwritten oral agreements between the parties.

Section 14.23       Pledge and Grant of Security Interest. Borrower hereby pledges to Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Lender), and grants a security interest in, any and all monies now or hereafter deposited with Administrative Agent from time to time as additional security for the payment of the Loan, but subject to the rights of tenants with respect to any tenant security deposits under Leases and the rights of Unit Purchasers under Unit Contracts of Sale. Borrower shall not further pledge, assign or grant any security interest in any monies on deposit therein from time to time or permit any lien or encumbrance to attach thereto, or any levy to be made thereon, or any UCC-1 financing statements (except those naming Administrative Agent as the secured party) to be filed with respect thereto. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Administrative Agent may apply any such sums then deposited with Administrative Agent to the payment of the charges for which such funds have been deposited or to the payment of the Loan or any other charges affecting the security of the Loan, as Administrative Agent may elect, but no such application shall be deemed to have been made by operation of law or otherwise until actually made by Administrative Agent. Until expended or applied as above provided, such funds shall constitute additional security for the Loan.

 

Section 14.24       Confidentiality. Except to the extent (i) required under applicable Legal Requirements, and/or (ii) in connection with a dispute between Administrative Agent/Lender/[***] and Borrower, without obtaining the prior written consent of Administrative Agent, Lender and [***] in each case, neither Borrower, nor any of its Affiliates, Upstream Owners, brokers, attorneys, accountants or other agents or other representatives shall disclose to any Person or party through any means (including, but not limited to, orally or by correspondence, electronic communications, signage, press-releases, interviews or any publicity or advertising), other than to Administrative Agent and its representatives: (A) the existence of any business relationship between Borrower and Administrative Agent, Lender and/or [***], or (B) the existence of any connection between the Loan and Administrative Agent, Lender and/or [***]. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Borrower may make such disclosures as Borrower determines are required by law upon advice of counsel due to the fact that Indemnitor is a public company.

 

Section 14.25       Broker. Borrower shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless [***], Administrative Agent and Lender from and against, and shall be responsible for, any Losses arising from any claim or litigation made or threatened by any broker or finder (but excluding any brokers or finders claiming by or through [***], Administrative Agent or Lender) in connection with the proposed Loan, and any court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees (including, without limitation, the cost of post-judgment remedies and appeals) incurred by [***], Administrative Agent or Lender in connection with any such claim or litigation.

 

Section 14.26       Amendment and Restatement. This Agreement shall amend, replace and supersede the Original Loan Agreement provided that the Loan (and the Indebtedness) shall continue in full force and effect, subject to any change or modification thereto that is provided in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. Neither this Agreement (nor any other document executed on the date hereof) shall constitute a novation, satisfaction and accord, cure, release and/or satisfaction of the Indebtedness or any other obligations, but this Agreement shall constitute an amendment and restatement of the Original Loan Agreement as heretofore set forth.

ARTICLE 15

 

THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

 

Section 15.1     Appointment and Authority. Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints TPHS Lender II LLC to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article 15 are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and Lender, and neither Borrower nor Indemnitor shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions. It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Loan Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.

 

Section 15.2     Exculpatory Provisions. Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, and its duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent:

 

(a)            shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Potential Event of Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;

 

(b)            shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by Lender; provided that Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law; provided, further, that Administrative Agent may seek instruction or clarification from Lender prior to the exercise of any action it may be or is required to take hereunder and until it has received satisfactory responses from Lender, Administrative Agent may take any reasonable action or refrain from taking any action, without liability pursuant to Section 15.4.

 

(c)            shall not have any duty or responsibility to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, to any Lender, any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of any of Borrower, Indemnitor or any of their Affiliates, that is communicated to, obtained or in the possession of, Administrative Agent or any of their Affiliates and Related Parties in any capacity, except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to Lender by Administrative Agent herein;

 

-90-

 

 

(d)            shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of Lender or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non-appealable judgment. Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Potential Event of Default or Event of Default unless and until notice describing such Potential Event of Default or Event of Default is given in writing to Administrative Agent by Borrower or Lender; and

 

(e)            shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Potential Event of Default or Event of Default or (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document.

 

Section 15.3     Reliance by Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for Borrower or Indemnitor), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

 

Section 15.4     Indemnification by Lenders.

 

(a)            Each Lender severally agrees to indemnify Administrative Agent, its affiliates and their respective directors, officers, agents and employees (to the extent not promptly reimbursed by Borrower) ratably in accordance with its interest in the Loan, against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents (collectively, the “Indemnified Costs”); provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as found in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse Administrative Agent promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any costs and expenses (including, without limitation, fees and expenses of counsel) payable by Borrower under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, to the extent that Administrative Agent is not promptly reimbursed for such costs and expenses by Borrower. In the case of any investigation, litigation or proceeding giving rise to any Indemnified Costs, this Section 15.4 applies whether any such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by any Lender or any other Person.

 

-91-

 

 

(b)            The failure of any Lender to reimburse Administrative Agent promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any amount required to be paid by Lender to Administrative Agent as provided herein shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder to reimburse Administrative Agent for its ratable share of such amount, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to reimburse Administrative Agent for such other Lender’s ratable share of such amount. Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of any Lender hereunder, the agreement and obligations of each Lender contained in this Section 15.4 shall survive the payment in full of principal, interest and all other amounts payable hereunder and under the other Loan Documents.

 

Section 15.5     Delegation of Duties. Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub agents appointed by Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article XV shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of - Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and non-appealable judgment that Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents.

 

Section 15.6     Resignation of Administrative Agent.

 

(c)            Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to Lender and Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Lender shall have the right, in consultation with Borrower, to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by Lender and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by Lender) (the “Resignation Effective Date”), then the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) on behalf of Lender, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above. Whether or not a successor has been appointed, such resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date.

 

(d)            Lender may by notice in writing to Borrower and such Person remove such Person as Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, in consultation with Borrower, appoint a successor. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by Lender and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by Lender) (the “Removal Effective Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date.

 

-92-

 

 

(e)            With effect from the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date (as applicable) (1) the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (2) except for any indemnity payments or other amounts then owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time, if any, as Lender appoints a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or removed) Administrative Agent (other than any rights to indemnity payments or other amounts owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent as of the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date, as applicable), and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section 15.6). The fees payable by Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between Borrower and such successor. After the retiring or removed Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article XV shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed Administrative Agent, its sub agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them (i) while the retiring or removed Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent and (ii) after such resignation or removal for as long as any of them continues to act in any capacity hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, including in respect of any actions taken in connection with transferring the agency to any successor Administrative Agent.

 

Section 15.7     Non-Reliance on the Administrative Agent and the Other Lenders. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that Administrative Agent has not made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by Administrative Agent hereafter taken, including any consent to, and acceptance of any assignment or review of the affairs of Borrower or Indemnitor of any Affiliate thereof, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by Administrative Agent to any Lender as to any matter, including whether Administrative Agent has disclosed material information in its (or its Related Parties’) possession. Each Lender represents to Administrative Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon Administrative Agent, any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis of, appraisal of, and investigation into, the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their subsidiaries, and all applicable bank or other regulatory laws relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to make the Loan to Borrower. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon Administrative Agent, any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties. Each Lender represents and warrants that (i) the Loan Documents set forth the terms of a commercial lending facility and (ii) it is engaged in making commercial loans in the ordinary course and is entering into this Agreement as a Lender for the purpose of making, acquiring or holding commercial loans, and not for the purpose of purchasing, acquiring or holding any other type of financial instrument, and each Lender agrees not to assert a claim in contravention of the foregoing. Each Lender represents and warrants that it is sophisticated with respect to decisions to make, acquire and/or hold commercial loans, and either it, or the Person exercising discretion in making its decision to make, acquire and/or hold such commercial loans, is experienced in making, acquiring or holding such commercial loans.

Section 15.8     Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of the Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise.

 

(a)            to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loan and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of Lender and Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of Lender and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due Lender and Administrative Agent under this Agreement) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

 

(b)            to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

 

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to Administrative Agent and, in the event that Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to Lender, to pay to Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due Administrative Agent under this Agreement.

 

Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender to authorize Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding.

 

Section 15.9     Reliance by Borrower on Administrative Agent. At all times when there is more than one Lender, (1) Borrower (a) is entitled to rely on the Administrative Agent for any waiver, amendment, approval or consent given by “Lender” under the Loan Documents, (b) shall adhere only to waivers, amendments, approvals or consents given by Administrative Agent, on behalf of “Lender” under the Loan Documents, and (c) shall make all payments under the Note and the other Loan Documents to Administrative Agent, as set forth herein, and (2) Administrative Agent shall, on behalf of all of the Lenders, be permitted to take all actions, including exercising all remedies, permitted to be taken by “Lender” under the Loan Documents (either by law or pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents), and (3) all legal action taken respecting the Loan Documents shall be taken by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders, and all default notices under the Loan Documents will be provided by the Administrative Agent. The use of the term “agent” in this Agreement with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Note, unless otherwise directed by Administrative Agent in writing, all payments under the Loan Documents shall be made by Borrower to the Administrative Agent in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.7(a).

 

-94-

 

 

Section 15.10  Rights as a Lender. If the Administrative Agent is also a Lender hereunder it shall have the same rights and powers hereunder as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not acting as the Administrative Agent, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless the context otherwise indicates, include the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity.

 

Section 15.11  Amendments Concerning Agency Function. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Administrative Agent shall not be bound by any waiver, amendment, supplement or modification of this Agreement or any other Loan Document which affects Administrative Agent’s duties, rights, and/or functions hereunder or thereunder unless Administrative Agent shall have given Administrative Agent’s prior written consent thereto.
