(a) In the event that Lender shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon Borrower absent manifest error) that by reason of circumstances affecting the interbank eurodollar market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining LIBOR, then Lender shall, by notice to Borrower (Lender’s Notice), which notice shall set forth in reasonable detail such circumstances, establish the Applicable Interest Rate at a spread for the Initial Advance (the Initial Advance Substitute Spread) and the Future Advances (the Future Advance Substitute Spread) above a published index used for other variable rate loans and chosen by Lender (the Substitute Rate) such that such Substitute Rate shall yield to Lender a rate of return substantially the same as (but no less than) the rate of return Lender would have realized had the Applicable Interest Rate been the Eurodollar Rate, all as reasonably determined by Lender. If, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the Loan has been converted to a Substitute Rate Loan and Lender shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon Borrower absent manifest error) that the event(s) or circumstance(s) which resulted in such conversion shall no longer be applicable, Lender shall give notice thereof to Borrower, and the Substitute Rate Loan shall automatically convert to a LIBOR Loan on the effective date set forth in such notice. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall Borrower have the right to elect to convert a LIBOR Loan to a Substitute Rate Loan. If any requirement of law or any change therein or in the interpretation or application thereof, shall hereafter make it unlawful for Lender to make or maintain a LIBOR Loan as contemplated hereunder, (i) the obligation of Lender hereunder to make a LIBOR Loan shall be cancelled forthwith and (ii) Lender may give Borrower a Lender’s Notice, establishing the Applicable Interest Rate at the Substitute Rate plus the Substitute Spread, in which case the Applicable Interest Rate shall be a rate equal to the Substitute Rate in

 

-38-


effect from time to time plus the Substitute Spread. In the event the condition necessitating the cancellation of Lender’s obligation to make a LIBOR Loan hereunder shall cease, Lender shall promptly notify Borrower of such cessation and the Loan shall resume its characteristics as a LIBOR Loan in accordance with the terms herein from and after the first day of the Interest Period next following such cessation. Borrower hereby agrees promptly to pay Lender, upon demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate Lender for any reasonable out-of-pocket costs actually incurred by Lender in making any conversion in accordance with this Agreement, including, without limitation, any interest or fees payable by Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to make or maintain the LIBOR Loan hereunder. Lender’s notice of such costs, as certified to Borrower, shall be set forth in reasonable detail and Lender’s calculation shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(b) In the event that any change in any requirement of any Applicable Law or in the interpretation or application thereof, or compliance in good faith by Lender or any Co-Lender with any request or directive hereafter issued from any Governmental Authority which is generally applicable to all lenders subject to such Governmental Authority’s jurisdiction:

(i) shall hereafter impose, modify, increase or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances or loans by, or other credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of Lender or any Co-Lender which is not otherwise included in the determination of LIBOR hereunder;

(ii) shall, if the Loan is then bearing interest at the Eurodollar Rate, hereafter have the effect of reducing the rate of return on Lender’s or any Co-Lender’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which Lender or any Co-Lender could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration Lender’s or any Co-Lender’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by any amount deemed by Lender or any Co-Lender to be material; or

(iii) shall, if the Loan is then bearing interest at the Eurodollar Rate, hereafter impose on Lender or any Co-Lender any other condition, the result of which is to increase the cost to Lender or such Co-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 Lender or such Co-Lender (within ten (10) Business Days of Lender’s or such Co-Lender’s written demand therefor), any additional amounts necessary to compensate Lender or such Co-Lender for such additional cost or reduced amount receivable which Lender or such Co-Lender deems to be material in its reasonable discretion. If Lender or any Co-Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.2.3(c), Lender and such Co-Lender shall provide Borrower with not less than ten (10) Business 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 and such Co-Lender for such additional cost or reduced amount. A certificate as to any additional costs or amounts payable pursuant to the foregoing sentence submitted by Lender or such Co-Lender to Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

Subject to Section 2.2.3(e) hereof, this provision shall survive payment of the Note and the satisfaction of all other obligations of Borrower under the Note, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

(c) Subject to Section 9.4 hereof, after the occurrence of a Syndication of all or any portion of the Loan Borrower agrees to indemnify Lender and the Co-Lenders and to hold Lender and the Co-Lenders harmless from any actual, out of pocket loss or expense which Lender or any Co-Lender sustains or incurs as a consequence of (I) any default by Borrower in payment of the principal of or interest on the Loan while bearing interest at the Eurodollar Rate, including, without limitation, any such loss or expense arising from interest or fees payable by Lender or any Co-Lenders to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to maintain the Eurodollar Rate, (II) any prepayment (whether voluntary or mandatory of the Loan on a day that (A) is not the Payment Date occurring on the last day of an Accrual Period with respect thereto or (B) is the Payment Date occurring on the last day of an Accrual Period with respect thereto if Borrower did not give the prior written notice of such prepayment required pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including, without limitation, such loss or expense arising from interest or fees payable by Lender or any Co-Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to maintain the Eurodollar Rate hereunder and (III) the conversion of the Applicable Interest Rate from the Eurodollar Rate to the Substitute Rate with respect to any portion of the outstanding principal amount of the Loan then bearing interest at the Eurodollar Rate on a date other than the Payment Date immediately following the last day of an Accrual Period, including, without limitation, such loss or expenses arising from interest or fees payable by Lender or any Co-Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to maintain the Eurodollar Rate hereunder (the amounts referred to in clauses (I), (II) and (III) are herein referred to collectively as the Breakage Costs). Subject to Section 2.2.3 hereof, this provision shall survive payment of the Note and the satisfaction of all other obligations of Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, there shall be no Breakage Costs applicable to any portion of the Loan after the occurrence of a Securitization (other than a Syndication) of the entire Loan

(d) Neither Lender nor the applicable Co-Lender shall be entitled to claim compensation pursuant to this Section 2.2.3 or Section 2.2.8 for any increased cost or reduction in amounts received or receivable hereunder, or any reduced rate of return, which was incurred or which accrued more than the earlier of (i) ninety (90) days before the date Lender or the applicable Co-Lender notified Borrower of the change in law or other circumstance on which such claim of compensation is based and delivered to Borrower a written statement setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for calculating the additional amounts owed to Lender or the applicable Co-Lender under this Section 2.2.3 or Section 2.2.8, which statement shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto absent manifest error or (ii) any earlier date (but not earlier than the effective date of such change in law or circumstance) provided that Lender notified Borrower of such change in law or circumstance and delivered the written statement referenced in clause (i) within ninety (90) days after Lender received written notice of such change in law or circumstance. Each Lender or Co-Lender must use reasonable efforts to avoid or reduce any other increased costs.

(e) This Section shall not apply to increased costs with respect to Indemnified Taxes, which shall be governed solely by Section 2.2.8.

2.2.4 Intentionally Deleted.

2.2.5 Payment on Maturity Date. Borrower shall pay to Lender on the Maturity Date the outstanding principal balance of the Loan, all accrued and unpaid interest and all other amounts due hereunder and under the Note, the Pledge Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, all interest that would accrue on the outstanding principal balance of the Loan through and including the end of the Accrual Period in which the Maturity Date occurs (even if such Accrual Period extends beyond the Maturity Date).

2.2.6 Payments after Default. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, interest on the outstanding principal balance of the Loan and, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, overdue interest and other amounts due in respect of the Loan, shall accrue at the Default Rate, calculated from the date such payment was due without regard to any grace or cure periods contained herein. Interest at the Default Rate shall be computed from the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default until the actual receipt and collection of the Debt (or that portion thereof that is then due). To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, unpaid interest at the Default Rate shall be added to the Debt, shall itself accrue interest at the same rate as the Loan and shall be secured by the Pledge Agreement. This paragraph shall not be construed as an agreement or privilege to extend the date of the payment of the Debt, nor as a waiver of any other right or remedy accruing to Lender by reason of the occurrence of any Event of Default.

2.2.7 Late Payment Charge. If any Monthly Debt Service Payment Amount is not paid by Borrower on or prior to the date on which it is due or any other sums due under the Loan Documents (other than the payment of the balance of the principal sum of the Note due on the Maturity Date) are not paid by Borrower within five (5) days of written demand therefor, Borrower shall pay to Lender upon demand an amount equal to the lesser of five percent (5%) of such unpaid sum or the maximum amount permitted by Applicable Law in order to defray the expense incurred by Lender in handling and processing such delinquent payment and to compensate Lender for the loss of the use of such delinquent payment. Any such amount shall be secured by the Pledge Agreement and the other Loan Documents to the extent permitted by Applicable Law.

2.2.8 Indemnified Taxes. All payments made by Borrower hereunder shall be made free and clear of, and without reduction for or on account of, indemnified Taxes. If any Indemnified Taxes are required by Applicable Law to be withheld from any amounts payable to Lender or any Co-Lender hereunder, the amounts so payable to Lender or such Co-Lender shall be increased to the extent necessary to yield to Lender or such Co-Lender (after payment of all Indemnified Taxes and all taxes with respect to such increased amounts) interest or any such other amounts payable hereunder at the rate or in the amounts specified hereunder and due at that time. Whenever any Indemnified Tax is payable pursuant to Applicable Law by Borrower, Borrower shall send to Lender or the applicable Co-Lender an original official receipt if available, showing payment of such Indemnified Tax or other evidence of payment reasonably satisfactory to Lender or the applicable Co-Lender. Borrower hereby indemnifies Lender and each Co-Lender for any incremental taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by Lender or any Co-Lender which may result from any failure by Borrower to pay any such Indemnified Tax when due to the appropriate taxing authority or any failure by Borrower to

 

-41-


remit to Lender or any Co-Lender the required receipts or other required documentary evidence. Each Lender and each Co-Lender (and any successor and/or assign of such Lender or such Co-Lender, as applicable) shall deliver to Borrower on or prior to the date on which such Lender or such Co-Lender, as applicable, becomes a party to this Agreement (i) two duly completed copies of United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, W-8IMY (with all the requisite attachments) or Form W-8ECI or successor applicable form, as the case may be, certifying in each case that such entity is entitled to receive payments under the Note, without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes, (ii) two duly completed copies of an Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or successor applicable form, as the case may be, to establish an exemption from United States backup withholding tax or (iii) in the case of a Lender or Co-Lender that is a foreign corporation claiming such an exemption under Section 881(c) of the Code, a duly completed certificate to the effect that such Lender or Co-Lender is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of such Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code. Each entity required to deliver to Borrower a Form W-8BEN, W-8MY or W-8ECI or Form W-9 pursuant to the preceding sentence further undertakes to deliver to Borrower two further copies of Form W-8BEN, W-8IMY or Form W-8ECI or Form W-9, or successor applicable forms, as the case may be, on or before the date that any such form expires or becomes obsolete or after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form previously delivered by it to Borrower, or upon request by Borrower, certifying in the case of a Form W-8BEN or Form W-8ECI that such entity is entitled to receive payments under the Note without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes, unless in any such case an event (including, without limitation, any change in treaty, law or regulation) has occurred prior to the date on which any such delivery would otherwise be required which renders all such forms inapplicable or which would prevent such entity from duly completing and delivering any such form with respect to it, and such entity notifies Borrower; it being understood that in the case of any such event that prevents a Lender or Co-Lender from continuing to provide a Form W-8IMY establishing an exemption from withholding by the Borrower, the Borrower shall not be required to increase amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.2.8 by an amount greater than would have been required had such Lender or Co-Lender or an affiliate thereof not been acting as an intermediary with respect to such amounts. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such entity fails to provide a duly completed Form W-8BEN or Form W-8ECI or other applicable form and such entity is otherwise entitled under Applicable Law to receive payments under the Note without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes and, under Applicable Law, in order to avoid liability for Indemnified Taxes, Borrower is required to withhold on payments made to such entity that has failed to provide the applicable form, Borrower shall be entitled to withhold the appropriate amount of Indemnified Taxes without grossing up such entity, provided, that Borrower will make commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the applicable certification. In such event, Borrower shall promptly provide to such entity evidence of payment of such Indemnified Taxes to the appropriate taxing authority and shall promptly forward to such entity any official tax receipts or other documentation with respect to the payment of the Indemnified Taxes as may be issued by the taxing authority.

2.2.9 Treatment of Certain Refunds or Credits. If Lender or Co-Lender (or any successor and/or assign of such Lender or such Co-Lender, as applicable) determines, in its reasonable discretion, that it has received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes as to which it has

 

-42-


been indemnified by Borrower or with respect to which Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to Section 2.2.8, it shall pay to Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by or on behalf of Borrower under Section 2.2.8 with respect to Indemnified Taxes giving rise to such recovery), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including taxes) of such Lender or such Co-Lender, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that Borrower, upon the request of such Lender or such Co-Lender, agrees to repay to such Lender or such Co-Lender, as the case may be, the amount paid over to Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event such Lender or such Co-Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This Section shall not be construed to require such Lender or such Co-Lender to make any claim for refund of Taxes or make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes which it deems confidential) to Borrower or any other Person.

2.2.10 Usury Savings. This Agreement and the Note are subject to the express condition that at no time shall Borrower be obligated or required to pay interest on the principal balance of the Loan at a rate which could subject Lender to either civil or criminal liability as a result of being in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate. If, by the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, Borrower is at any time required or obligated to pay interest on the principal balance due hereunder at a rate in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate, the Applicable Interest Rate or the Default Rate, as the case may be, shall be deemed to be immediately reduced to the Maximum Legal Rate and all previous payments in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate shall be deemed to have been payments in reduction of principal and not on account of the interest due hereunder. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Lender for the use, forbearance, or detention of the sums due under the Loan, shall, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, be amortized, prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the full stated term of the Loan until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Loan does not exceed the Maximum Legal Rate of interest from time to time in effect and applicable to the Loan for so long as the Loan is outstanding.

Section 2.3 Prepayments.

2.3.1 Voluntary Prepayments. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 2.3.1 and in Section 2.3.2, Borrower shall not have the right to prepay the Loan, in whole or in part, prior to the Maturity Date. Borrower shall have no right to prepay the Loan, in whole or in part, prior to the Payment Date occurring in February 2008. Thereafter Borrower may, upon at least ten (10) days prior written notice to Lender, prepay the Loan in whole but not in part at anytime, provided however if such prepayment occurs prior to the Payment Date occurring in August, 2008 (the Permitted Prepayment Date), Borrower shall also pay Lender the applicable Spread Maintenance Premium. On the Permitted Prepayment Date or on any date thereafter, Borrower may, at its option and upon at least ten (10) days prior written notice to Lender, prepay the entire Debt without payment of the Spread Maintenance Premium. Borrower may revoke any notice of prepayment at any time prior to the date of such prepayment. Borrower shall promptly reimburse Lender for any reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses associated with any such revocation. In addition, Borrower agrees that (a) in the event that a prepayment shall be made during the period commencing on the first calendar day immediately

 

-43-


following a Payment Date to, but not including, the LIBOR Determination Date in such calendar month, such payment shall be accompanied by a payment of interest on the amount of principal being prepaid that Lender determines would be payable by Borrower if such prepayment had been made on or after such LIBOR Determination Date but prior to the succeeding Payment Date calculated using a per annum interest rate equal to 6.25% plus the Spread (such amount, the Estimated Interest Payment). In the event that the Estimated Interest Payment paid by Borrower to Lender exceeds the amount that otherwise would have been payable by Borrower if the final interest payment amount was calculated based on the interest rate determined on the applicable LIBOR Determination Date (the Actual Required Payment), Lender shall refund to Borrower an amount equal to the Estimated Interest Payment minus the Actual Required Payment. In the event the Estimated Interest Payment paid by Borrower is less than the Actual Required Payment, Borrower shall, promptly upon demand by Lender, pay to Lender an amount equal to the Actual Required Payment minus the Estimated Interest Payment; (b) if such prepayment is made on a Payment Date, then in connection with such prepayment Borrower shall pay to Lender, simultaneously with such prepayment, all interest on the principal balance of the Note then being prepaid which would have accrued through the end of the Accrual Period then in effect notwithstanding that such Accrual Period extends beyond the date of such prepayment; and (c) subject to subsection (a) above, if such prepayment is made on a day other than a Payment Date, then in connection with such prepayment Borrower shall pay to Lender, simultaneously with such prepayment, all interest on the principal balance of the Note then being prepaid which would have accrued through the end of the Accrual Period then in effect notwithstanding that such Accrual Period extends beyond the date of such prepayment; provided, however, that if such date is a date on or after the LIBOR Determination Date in such calendar month and prior to the first day of the Accrual Period that commences in such calendar month, Borrower shall also pay to Lender in connection with such prepayment all interest on the principal balance of this Note then being prepaid which would have accrued through the end of the next succeeding Accrual Period. Any prepayment received by Lender on a date other than a Payment Date shall be held by Lender as collateral security for the Loan and shall be applied to the Debt on the next Payment Date.

2.3.2 Liquidation Event. (a) In the event of (i) any Casualty to all or any portion of the Property, (ii) any Condemnation of all or any portion of the Property, (iii) any claims made by Mortgage Borrower under the owner’s Title Policy, (iv) a Transfer of the Property in connection with realization thereon by Mortgage Lender following an Event of Default under the Mortgage Loan, (v) any refinancing of the Property or the Mortgage Loan (each, a Liquidation Event), Borrower shall cause the related Net Liquidation Proceeds After Debt Service to be deposited directly into the Mezzanine Deposit Account. On each date on which Lender actually receives a distribution of Net Liquidation Proceeds After Debt Service, Borrower shall prepay the outstanding principal balance of the Note in an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of such Net Liquidation Proceeds After Debt Service together with (i) in the event that such Net Liquidation Proceeds After Debt Service are received on or before a Payment Date, interest accruing on such amount calculated through and including the end of the Accrual Period in which such Monthly Payment Date occurs, or (ii) in the event that such Net Liquidation Proceeds After Debt Service are received on a date after a Payment Date, interest accruing on such amount calculated through and including the end of Interest Period in which the next Payment Date occurs. Such Net Liquidation Proceeds After Debt Service shall be applied first to the repayment of Initial Advance and any remaining portion thereof shall be applied to

 

-44-


the repayment of any Future Advances. Subject to the rights of the Other Mezzanine Lender, any amounts of Net Liquidation Proceeds After Debt Service in excess of the Debt shall be paid to Borrower. Any prepayment received by Lender pursuant to this Section 2.3.2 on a date other than a monthly Payment Date shall be held by Lender as collateral security for the Loan and shall be applied by Lender on the next monthly Payment Date. Other than during the continuance of an Event of Default, no Spread Maintenance Premium shall be due in connection with any prepayment made pursuant to this Section 2.3.2(a)(i) or (ii).

(b) Borrower shall immediately notify Lender of any Liquidation Event once Borrower has knowledge of such event. Borrower shall be deemed to have knowledge of (i) a sale (other than a foreclosure sale or UCC sale) of the Property on the date on which a contract of sale for such sale is entered into, and a foreclosure sale or UCC sale, on the date notice of such foreclosure sale or UCC sale is given, and (ii) a refinancing of the Property, on the date on which a commitment for such refinancing has been entered into. The provisions of this Section 2.3.2 shall not be construed to contravene in any manner the restrictions and other provisions regarding refinancing of the Mortgage Loan or Transfer of the Property set forth in this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the Mortgage Loan Documents.

2.3.3 Prepayments After Default. If, following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, payment of all or any part of the Debt is tendered by Borrower or otherwise recovered by Lender, such tender or recovery shall be deemed a voluntary prepayment by Borrower in violation of the prohibition against prepayment set forth in Section 2.3.1 and Borrower shall pay, in addition to the Debt, (i) an amount equal to the greater of (a) one percent (1%) of the outstanding principal amount of the Loan to be prepaid or satisfied, or (b) the Spread Maintenance Premium, and (ii) all accrued and unpaid interest on the amount of principal being prepaid (including, without limitation, (x) in the event that such prepayment is received on or before a Payment Date, interest accruing on such amount calculated through and including the end of the Accrual Period in which such Payment Date occurs, or (y) in the event that such prepayment is received on a date after a Payment Date, interest accruing on such amount calculated through and including the end of Accrual Period in which the next Payment Date occurs), (iii) to the extent applicable, Breakage Costs and (iv) other amounts payable under the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the amounts set forth in clause (i) above shall not be payable if the related payment is tendered on or after the Permitted Prepayment Date.

2.3.4 Making of Payments. Each payment by Borrower hereunder or under the Note shall be made in funds settled through the New York Clearing House Interbank Payments System or other funds immediately available to Lender by 12:00 noon, New York City time, on or prior to the date such payment is due, to Lender by deposit to such account as Lender may designate by written notice to Borrower. Whenever any payment hereunder or under the Note shall be stated to be due on a day which is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the Business Day immediately preceding such day.

2.3.5 Application of Principal Prepayments. All prepayments received pursuant to this Section 2.3 shall be applied to the payments of principal due under the Loan in the inverse order of maturity.

 

-45-


Section 2.4 Interest Rate Cap Agreement. (a) Borrower shall purchase one or more Interest Rate Cap Agreements (i) for a period to expire on the initial Maturity Date, (ii) in a notional amount not less than the outstanding principal balance of the Loan, (iii) having a strike price not greater than 6.25% and (iv) which otherwise comply with the requirements of this Section 2.4. Thereafter, Borrower shall purchase prior to each Extension Period, and shall maintain throughout the remaining term of the Loan, an Interest Rate Cap Agreement or Interest Rate Cap Agreements, or replacements, increases or amendments thereto, in a notional amount not less than the then outstanding principal balance of the Loan, for a period beginning on the first day of the applicable Extension Period and ending on the last calendar day of the Accrual Period in which the applicable Extended Maturity Date occurs and otherwise complying with the requirements of this Section 2.4. Each Interest Rate Cap Agreement delivered after the initial Maturity Date shall provide for a LIBOR strike price not greater than 6.25%. The Counterparty shall be obligated under the Interest Rate Cap Agreement to make monthly payments equal to the excess of one (1) month LIBOR over the applicable strike rate required pursuant to this subsection (a) calculated on the notional amount. The notional amount of the Interest Rate Cap Agreement may be reduced from time to time in amounts equal to any prepayment of the principal of the Loan in accordance with Section 2.3 hereof and Borrower may sell any such excess notional amount.

(b) Borrower shall collaterally assign to Lender pursuant to a Collateral Assignment of Interest Rate Cap Agreement, all of its right, title and interest to receive any and all payments under the Interest Rate Cap Agreement (and any related guarantee, if any) and shall deliver to Lender an executed counterpart of such Interest Rate Cap Agreement and notify the Counterparty of such collateral assignment (either in such Interest Rate Cap Agreement or by separate instrument). The Counterparty shall agree in writing to make all payments it is required to make under the Interest Rate Cap Agreement directly to the Mezzanine Deposit Account where such payments shall be applied in accordance with the terms of Section 3.3 of the Cash Management Agreement. At such time as the Loan is repaid in full, all of Lender’s right, title and interest in the Interest Rate Cap Agreement shall terminate and Lender shall promptly execute and deliver at Borrower’s sole cost and expense, such documents as may be required to evidence Lender’s release of the Interest Rate Cap Agreement and to notify the Counterparty of such release.

(c) Borrower shall comply with all of its obligations under the terms and provisions of the Interest Rate Cap Agreement. Borrower shall take all actions reasonably requested by Lender to enforce Lender’s rights under the Interest Rate Cap Agreement in the event of a default by the Counterparty and shall not waive, amend or otherwise modify in any material respect any of its rights thereunder, without Lender’s consent, not to be unreasonably withheld.

(d) In the event of any downgrade or withdrawal of the rating of such Counterparty by any Rating Agency below the Minimum Counterparty Rating, Borrower shall replace the Interest Rate Cap Agreement not later than thirty (30) days following receipt of notice of such downgrade or withdrawal with an Interest Rate Cap Agreement from an Acceptable Counterparty having a Minimum Counterparty Rating; provided, however, that if any Rating Agency withdraws or downgrades the credit rating of the Counterparty below the Minimum Counterparty Rating, Borrower shall not be required to replace the Counterparty under

 

-46-


the Interest Rate Cap Agreement provided that within thirty (30) days following notice to Borrower of such downgrade or withdrawal (y) such Counterparty or an Affiliate thereof posts additional collateral acceptable to the Rating Agencies from time to time securing its obligations under the Interest Rate Cap Agreement or (z) an Affiliate of such Counterparty with a Minimum Counterparty Rating delivers a guaranty acceptable to the Rating Agencies guaranteeing such Counterparty’s obligations under the Interest Rate Cap Agreement; provided that, notwithstanding any such downgrade or withdrawal, unless and until the Counterparty transfers the Interest Rate Cap Agreement to a replacement Acceptable Counterparty pursuant to the foregoing clause (z), the Counterparty will continue to perform its obligations under the Interest Rate Cap Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if S&P or Fitch withdraws or downgrades the long-term credit rating of such Counterparty below “BBB-” or short term credit rating below “A-3”, or Moody’s withdraws or downgrades the credit rating of such Counterparty below “A2” (if the Counterparty has only a long term rating from Moody’s) or below “A3” or “P-2” (if the Counterparty has both long term and short term ratings from Moody’s), Borrower shall replace the Interest Rate Cap Agreement not later than thirty (30) days following receipt of notice of such downgrade or withdrawal with an Interest Rate Cap Agreement from an Approved Counterparty having a Minimum Counterparty Rating. Failure to satisfy any of the foregoing shall constitute an “Additional Termination Event” as defined by Section 5(b)(v) of the ISDA Master Agreement, with the Counterparty as the “Affected Party.”

(e) In the event that Borrower fails to purchase and deliver to Lender the Interest Rate Cap Agreement or any Replacement Interest Cap Agreement as and when required hereunder, Lender may purchase such Interest Rate Cap Agreement and the cost incurred by Lender in purchasing such Interest Rate Cap Agreement shall be paid by Borrower to Lender with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date such cost was incurred by Lender until such cost is paid by Borrower to Lender.

(f) In connection with an Interest Rate Cap Agreement, Borrower shall obtain and deliver to Lender an opinion of counsel from counsel (which may be in house counsel) for the Counterparty (upon which Lender and its successors and assigns may rely) which shall provide, in relevant part, that:

(1) the Counterparty is duly organized, validly existing, and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation and has the organizational power and authority to execute and deliver, and to perform its obligations under, the Interest Rate Cap Agreement;

(2) the execution and delivery of the Interest Rate Cap Agreement by the Counterparty, and any other agreement which the Counterparty has executed and delivered pursuant thereto, and the performance of its obligations thereunder have been and remain duly authorized by all necessary action and do not contravene any provision of its certificate of incorporation or by-laws (or equivalent Organizational Documents) or any law, regulation or contractual restriction binding on or affecting it or its property;

 

-47-


(3) all consents, authorizations and approvals required for the execution and delivery by the Counterparty of the Interest Rate Cap Agreement, and any other agreement which the Counterparty has executed and delivered pursuant thereto, and the performance of its obligations thereunder have been obtained and remain in full force and effect, all conditions thereof have been duly complied with, and no other action by, and no notice to or filing with any governmental authority or regulatory body is required for such execution, delivery or performance; and

(4) the Interest Rate Cap Agreement, and any other agreement which the Counterparty has executed and delivered pursuant thereto, has been duly executed and delivered by the Counterparty and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Counterparty, enforceable against the Counterparty in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, and subject, as to enforceability, to general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law); or

(5) be in form and scope reasonably acceptable to Lender and otherwise satisfy then current market standards the holder of the Note customarily adheres with respect to Interest Rate Cap Agreement opinions.

Section 2.5 Release of Property. Except as set forth in this Section 2.5, no repayment, or prepayment of all or any portion of the Loan shall cause, give rise to a right to require, or otherwise result in, the release of any Lien of the Pledge Agreement on the Collateral.

This Agreement and the other Loan Documents have been duly executed and delivered by or on behalf of Borrower and constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of Borrower enforceable against Borrower in accordance with their respective terms, subject only to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws affecting rights of creditors generally, and subject, as to enforceability, to general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law).

4.1.3 No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents by Borrower will not conflict with or result in a breach of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any Lien, charge or encumbrance (other than pursuant to the Loan Documents) upon any of the property or assets of Borrower pursuant to the terms of any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, partnership agreement, management agreement, or other agreement or instrument to which Borrower is a party or by which any of Borrower’s property or assets is subject, nor will such action result in any violation of the provisions of any statute or any order, rule or regulation of any court or governmental agency or body having jurisdiction over Borrower or the Collateral or any of Borrower’s other assets, or any license or other approval required to operate the Collateral, and any consent, approval, authorization, order, registration or qualification of or with any Governmental Authority required for the execution, delivery and performance by Borrower of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents have been obtained and is in full force and effect.

other agency now pending or, to Borrower’s knowledge, threatened against or affecting Borrower, Mortgage Borrower, the Property or the Collateral, which actions, suits or proceedings, if determined against Borrower, Mortgage Borrower, the Property or the Collateral, are reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.

4.1.5 Agreements. Neither Borrower nor Mortgage Borrower is a party to any agreement or instrument or subject to any restriction which is reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect. To Borrower’s knowledge, neither Borrower nor Mortgage Borrower is in default in any material respect in the performance, observance or fulfillment of any of the obligations, covenants or conditions contained in any agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which Borrower, Mortgage Borrower, the Collateral or the Property is bound. To Borrower’s knowledge, neither Borrower nor Mortgage Borrower has any material financial obligation under any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement or other agreement or instrument to which Borrower or Mortgage Borrower is a party or by which Borrower, Mortgage Borrower, the Collateral or the Property is otherwise bound, other than (a) obligations incurred in the ordinary course of the business relating to Borrower’s operation of the Collateral, (b) obligations incurred in the ordinary course of Mortgage Borrower’s operation of the Property and (c) obligations under the Loan Documents and the Mortgage Loan Documents, as applicable.

The fair saleable value of Borrower’s assets is and will, immediately following the making of the Loan, be greater than Borrower’s probable liabilities, including the maximum amount of its contingent liabilities on its debts as such debts become absolute and matured.

Borrower does not intend to incur debt and 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 Borrower and the amounts to be payable on or in respect of obligations of Borrower).

The Annual Budget and all amendments and modifications thereto shall be subject to Lender’s prior review and approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. Lender shall use good faith efforts to respond within ten (10) Business Days after Lender’s receipt of Borrower’s written request for approval of such Annual Budget or any amendment or modification thereto, provided that Borrower has delivered or caused to be delivered to Lender with such request any and all other materials reasonably requested by Lender in order to evaluate such Annual Budget or such amendment or modification thereto. If Lender fails to respond to such request within ten (10) Business Days, and Borrower sends a second request containing a legend in bold letters stating that Lender’s failure to respond within ten (10) Business Days shall be deemed consent or approval, Lender shall be deemed to have approved or consented to such Annual Budget or amendment or modification thereto if Lender fails to respond to such second written request before the expiration of such ten (10) Business Day period. During any period that Lender has not approved or been deemed to have approved an Annual Budget, the approved Annual Budget in effect immediately prior to the delivery of such Annual Budget shall, until a new Annual Budget shall have been approved, be deemed to be the then-applicable approved Annual Budget (except that amounts set forth in such then-applicable approved Annual Budget (i) for items other than non-discretionary items shall be deemed to be increased on a percentage basis by an amount equal to five percent (5%), and (ii) for non-discretionary items such as insurance premiums, amounts owed to utilities and Taxes, shall be deemed to be increased by the actual amount, as then known to Borrower, by which the cost of such items increased during such calendar year).

Borrower shall notify Lender as promptly as practicable with respect to any such emergency expenditures made with respect to the Property. At the request of Lender, Borrower agrees to cause Mortgage Borrower to deliver evidence in a form satisfactory to Lender that amounts allocated to budgeted expenses have been paid in accordance with the Approved Annual Budget. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 5.1.10(d), whenever Lender’s approval of an Annual Budget or amendment or modification thereof is required pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5.1.10(d), Lender shall be deemed to have given such approval (A) if Mezzanine Loan D is then outstanding and (1) the Mezzanine Lender D shall have confirmed in writing that Mezzanine Lender D has given such approval pursuant to the terms and provisions of the Mezzanine D Loan Documents or (2) Borrower shall have provided Lender with evidence reasonably acceptable to Lender that Mezzanine Lender D has been deemed to have given such approval pursuant to the terms and provisions of the Mezzanine D Loan Documents (which evidence may consist of copies of all submissions required to obtain such deemed approval thereunder), (B) if Mezzanine Loan D is no longer outstanding but Mezzanine Loan C is then outstanding and (1) Mezzanine Lender C

5.1.17 Leasing Matters. (a) With respect to the Property, Borrower may allow Mortgage Borrower to enter into a proposed Lease (including the renewal or extension of an existing Lease (a Renewal Lease)) without the prior written consent of Lender, provided such proposed Lease or Renewal Lease (i) provides for rental rates and terms comparable to existing local market rates and terms (taking into account the type and quality of the tenant) as of the date such Lease is executed by Mortgage Borrower (unless, in the case of a Renewal Lease, the rent payable during such renewal, or a formula or other method to compute such rent, is provided for in the original Lease), (ii) is an arms-length transaction with a bona fide, independent third party tenant, (iii) does not, in Borrower’s commercially reasonable judgment, have a Material Adverse Effect, (iv) is subject and subordinate to the Security Instrument and the lessee thereunder agrees to attorn to Mortgage Lender, (v) is written on the standard form of lease approved by Lender (other than a Renewal Lease (which shall be in the form of the existing lease being renewed or extended and may include commercially reasonable modifications that do not alter in any material respect the provisions relating to subordination and attornment, or such other form reasonably acceptable to Lender) or, with respect to any proposed Lease, factual information with respect to the tenant and other commercially reasonable modifications as reasonably determined by Mortgage Borrower, provided that in no event shall such modifications alter in any material adverse respect the standard lease provisions relating to subordination and attornment), and (vi) is not a Major Lease. All proposed Leases which do not satisfy the requirements set forth in this Section 5.1.17(a) shall be subject to the prior approval of Lender, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, however, that any “month-to-month” license or similar agreement that is terminable on written notice of thirty (30) days or less shall not be considered a Lease for purposes of this Section 5.1.17 and shall not be subject to the prior approval of Lender so long as such license or similar agreement does not constitute a Major Lease. At Lender’s request, Borrower shall promptly cause Mortgage Borrower to deliver to Lender copies of all Leases which are entered into pursuant to this subsection together with Borrower’s certification that it has satisfied all of the conditions of this Section 5.1.17.

(b) Borrower (i) shall cause Mortgage Borrower to observe and perform all the material obligations imposed upon the lessor under the Leases and shall not do or permit to be done anything to impair the value of any of the Leases as security for the Debt; (ii) shall cause Mortgage Borrower to promptly send copies to Lender of all notices of default or other material matters which Mortgage Borrower shall send or receive with respect to the Leases; (iii) shall cause Mortgage Borrower to enforce all of the material terms, covenants and conditions contained in the Leases upon the part of the tenant thereunder to be observed or performed (except for termination of a Major Lease which shall require Lender’s prior written approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); (iv) shall not collect or permit Mortgage Borrower to collect any of the Rents more than one (1) month in advance (except Security Deposits shall not be deemed Rents collected in advance); (v) shall,

 

-70-


immediately upon receipt, deposit or cause Mortgage Borrower to deposit, all Lease Termination Payments into the Rollover/Replacement Reserve Account pursuant the Mortgage Loan Agreement; (vi) shall not permit Mortgage Borrower to execute any other assignment of the lessor’s interest in any of the Leases or the Rents; and (vii) shall not (except as permitted in clause (c) below) permit Mortgage Borrower to consent to any assignment of any Leases or any subletting of the lesser of (x) the entire premises covered by a Major Lease or (y) one (1) full floor, without the prior written consent of Lender (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(c) Borrower may, without the consent of Lender, allow Mortgage Borrower to amend, modify or waive the provisions of any Lease or terminate, reduce rents under, accept a surrender of space under, or shorten the term of, any Lease (including any guaranty, letter of credit or other credit support with respect thereto) or consent to any assignment or subletting thereof, provided that such Lease is not a Major Lease (or, with respect to the subletting of the premises covered by a Major Lease, such subletting is not of the entire premises covered by such Major Lease) and that such action (taking into account, in the case of a termination, reduction in rent, surrender of space or shortening of term, the planned alternative use of the affected space) does not in Borrower’s commercially reasonable judgment have a Material Adverse Effect, and provided that such Lease, as amended, modified or waived, or assigned or sublet, is otherwise in compliance with the requirements of this Agreement and any lease subordination agreement binding upon Mortgage Lender with respect to such Lease. A termination of a Lease (other than a Major Lease) with a tenant who is in default beyond applicable notice and grace periods shall not be considered an action which has a Material Adverse Effect. Any amendment, modification, waiver, termination, rent reduction, space surrender or term shortening or assignment or subletting which does not satisfy the requirements set forth in this subsection shall be subject to the prior written approval of Lender and its counsel, at Borrower’s reasonable expense, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. At Lender’s request, Borrower shall cause Mortgage Borrower to promptly deliver to Lender copies of all Leases, amendments, modifications and waivers which are entered into pursuant to this Section 5.1.17(c).

(d) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, with respect to the Property, Borrower shall not permit Mortgage Borrower to, without the prior written consent of Lender, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, enter into, renew, extend, amend, modify, waive any provisions of, terminate, reduce rents under, accept a surrender of space under, or shorten the term of, any Major Lease or any instrument guaranteeing or providing credit support for any Major Lease, provided that no consent shall be required in connection with the exercise of a renewal or extension option of a Major Lease which is in all material respects on the same terms on which the tenant thereunder has the right to renew or extend such Major Lease.

(e) Borrower shall cause Mortgage Borrower to hold any and all monies representing security deposits under the Leases, including any letters of credit delivered as security for a tenant’s obligation under a Lease (collectively, the Security Deposits), in accordance with Applicable Law and the terms of the respective Lease, and shall only release the Security Deposits in order to return a tenant’s Security Deposit to such tenant if such tenant is entitled to the return of the Security Deposit under the terms of the Lease. Borrower shall cause

 

-71-


Mortgage Borrower to comply with the provisions of Section 5.1.17(e) of the Mortgage Loan Agreement with respect to any Security Deposit equal to or greater than $300,000 for any Lease entered into by Mortgage Borrower after the Closing Date.

(f) Intentionally deleted.

(g) Intentionally deleted.

(h) Notwithstanding the provisions above, to the extent, if any, that Lender’s prior written approval is required pursuant to this Section 5.1.17, such request for approval shall be deemed approved if Lender shall have failed to notify Borrower of its approval or disapproval within ten (10) Business Days following Lender’s receipt of Borrower’s or Mortgage Borrower’s written request together with (if applicable) a copy of the proposed Lease, Renewal Lease, modification or other instrument requiring approval (and, if a Lease or a restatement of an existing Lease, a blacklined copy thereof showing changes to Mortgage Borrower’s standard form) and any information which Lender may request in accordance with the next sentence (such ten (10) Business Day period, the “Leasing Approval Period). Upon Lender’s request, Borrower shall be required to provide, or cause Mortgage Borrower to provide, Lender with such material information and documentation as may be reasonably required by Lender, in its reasonable discretion, including without limitation, lease comparables and other market information as reasonably required by Lender to reach a decision. In order to be effective for the purposes of triggering the time periods set forth above for Lender to respond, all requests by Borrower or Mortgage Borrower for approval pursuant to this Section 5.1.17(h) must contain the following in bold, capital letters in the request and on the envelope or wrapper enclosing such request: “THIS IS A REQUEST FOR APPROVAL PURSUANT TO SECTION 5.1.17(h) OF THE LOAN AGREEMENT BETWEEN LENDER AND BORROWER. FAILURE BY LENDER TO RESPOND WITHIN TIME PERIODS REFERENCED IN SAID SECTION 5.1.17(h) MAY RESULT IN APPROVAL OF THE MATTERS REFERRED TO HEREIN.”

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Sections 5.1.17 (c) or (d), whenever Lender’s approval is required pursuant to the provisions of Sections 5.1.17 (c) or (d), Lender shall be deemed to have given such approval (A) if Mezzanine Loan D is then outstanding and (1) the Mezzanine Lender D shall have confirmed in writing that Mezzanine Lender D has given such approval pursuant to the terms and provisions of the Mezzanine D Loan Documents or (2) Borrower shall have provided Lender with evidence reasonably acceptable to Lender that Mezzanine Lender D has been deemed to have given such approval pursuant to the terms and provisions of the Mezzanine D Loan Documents (which evidence may consist of copies of all submissions required to obtain such deemed approval thereunder), (B) if Mezzanine Loan D is no longer outstanding but Mezzanine Loan C is then outstanding and (1) Mezzanine Lender C shall have confirmed in writing that the Mezzanine Lender C has given such approval pursuant to the terms and provisions of the Mezzanine C Loan Documents or (2) Borrower shall have provided Lender with evidence reasonably acceptable to Lender that Mezzanine Lender C has been deemed to have given such approval pursuant to the terms and provisions of the Mezzanine C Loan Documents (which evidence may consist of copies of all submissions required to obtain such deemed approval thereunder), or (C) if neither Mezzanine Loan D nor Mezzanine Loan C are then outstanding but Mezzanine Loan B is then outstanding and

 

-72-


(1) Mezzanine Lender B shall have confirmed in writing that Mezzanine Lender B has given such approval pursuant to the terms and provisions of the Mezzanine B Loan Documents or (2) Borrower shall have provided Lender with evidence reasonably acceptable to Lender that Mezzanine Lender B has been deemed to have given such approval pursuant to the terms and provisions of the Mezzanine B Loan Documents (which evidence may consist of copies of all submissions required to obtain such deemed approval thereunder).

5.1.18 Management Agreement. (a) The Improvements on the Property are operated under the terms and conditions of the Management Agreement. In no event shall the management fees under the Management Agreement exceed four percent (4%) of the Gross Income from Operations derived from the Property. Borrower shall or shall cause Mortgage Borrower to (i) diligently perform and observe all of the material terms, covenants and conditions of the Management Agreement, on the part of Mortgage Borrower to be performed and observed to the end that all things shall be done which are necessary to keep unimpaired the rights of Mortgage Borrower under the Management Agreement and (ii) promptly notify Lender of the giving of any notice by Manager to Mortgage Borrower of any default by Mortgage Borrower in the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of the Management Agreement on the part of Mortgage Borrower to be performed and observed and deliver to Lender a true copy of each such notice. Borrower shall cause Mortgage Borrower to not surrender the Management Agreement, consent to the assignment by Manager of its interest under the Management Agreement, or terminate or cancel the Management Agreement, or modify, change, supplement, alter or amend the Management Agreement, in any material respect, either orally or in writing; provided, however, that Mortgage Borrower shall have the right to terminate the Management Agreement without Lender’s prior written consent upon satisfaction of the following conditions: (i) Borrower causes Mortgage Borrower to deliver to Lender written notice of its intention to terminate the Management Agreement at least five (5) days prior to such termination; (ii) Mortgage Borrower replaces Manager within thirty (30) days of the termination of the Management Agreement with a Qualified Manager pursuant to a Replacement Management Agreement reasonably acceptable to Lender; (iii) such Qualified Manager delivers to Lender an Assignment of Management Agreement substantially in the form of the Assignment of Management Agreement delivered to Lender by Manager on the date hereof; and (iv) if such replacement manager is an affiliate of Borrower, delivers to Lender an updated Insolvency Opinion acceptable to Lender. Subject to the rights of Mortgage Lender, Borrower hereby assigns to Lender as further security for the payment of the Debt and for the performance and observance of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Agreement, all the rights, privileges and prerogatives of Borrower to cause Mortgage Borrower to surrender the Management Agreement, or to terminate, cancel, modify, change, supplement, alter or amend the Management Agreement, in any respect, and any such surrender of the Management Agreement, or termination, cancellation, material modification, change, supplement, alteration or amendment of the Management Agreement, without the prior consent of Lender shall be void and of no force and effect. Subject to the rights of Mortgage Lender, if Mortgage Borrower shall default in the performance or observance of any material term, covenant or condition of the Management Agreement on the part of Mortgage Borrower to be performed or observed beyond applicable notice and cure periods provided therein, then, without limiting the generality of the other provisions of this Agreement, and without waiving or releasing Borrower from any of its obligations hereunder, Lender shall have the right, but shall be under no obligation, to pay any sums and to perform any act or take any action as may be appropriate to cause all the terms,

 

-73-


covenants and conditions of the Management Agreement on the part of Mortgage Borrower to be performed or observed to be promptly performed or observed on behalf of Mortgage Borrower, to the end that the rights of Mortgage Borrower in, to and under the Management Agreement shall be kept unimpaired and free from default. Lender and any Person designated by Lender shall have, and are hereby granted, the right to enter upon the Property at any time and from time to time upon reasonable prior written notice to Borrower and at reasonable hours for the purpose of taking any such action; provided, however, that Lender shall not take such action unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. If Manager shall deliver to Lender a copy of any notice sent to Borrower or Mortgage Borrower of default under the Management Agreement beyond applicable notice and cure periods provided therein, such notice shall constitute full protection to Lender for any action taken or omitted to be taken by Lender in good faith, in reliance thereon; provided, however, that if the Manager is not then an Affiliated Manager and Lender shall within five (5) days of its receipt of Manager’s notice receive from Borrower or Mortgage Borrower a written notice disputing Manager’s notice and stating the basis of such dispute and that it, or Mortgage Borrower, will attempt to resolve its dispute with Manager, then Lender shall refrain from taking any action described in the immediately preceding sentence until the earlier of to occur of (x) the date that is thirty (30) days after Lender’s receipt of Manager’s notice of such default, and (y) the date that is five (5) Business Days prior to the date on which Manager could, under the Management Agreement, terminate the Management Agreement, assuming that the facts stated in Manager’s notice were true. Borrower shall cause Mortgage Borrower to not, and shall not permit Manager to, sub-contract any or all of its management responsibilities under the Management Agreement to a third party without the prior written consent of Lender, which will not be unreasonably withheld. Borrower shall, from time to time (but not more frequently than once annually), use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain from Manager such certificates of estoppel with respect to compliance by Mortgage Borrower with the terms of the Management Agreement as may be requested by Lender. Borrower shall cause Mortgage Borrower to exercise each individual option, if any, to extend or renew the term of the Management Agreement upon demand by Lender made at any time within one (1) year of the last day upon which any such option may be exercised, and Borrower hereby expressly authorizes and appoints Lender its attorney-in-fact to cause Mortgage Borrower to exercise any such option in the name of and upon behalf of Borrower, which power of attorney shall be irrevocable and shall be deemed to be coupled with an interest. Such power of attorney shall not be exercisable by Lender unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. Any sums expended by Lender pursuant to this paragraph (i) shall bear interest at the Default Rate from the date such cost is incurred to the date of payment to Lender, (ii) shall be deemed to constitute a portion of the Debt, (iii) shall be secured by the lien of the Pledge Agreement and the other Loan Documents and (iv) shall be immediately due and payable upon demand by Lender therefor.

(b) Without limitation of the foregoing, Borrower, upon the request of Lender, shall cause Mortgage Borrower to terminate the Management Agreement and replace Manager, without penalty or fee, if at any time during the Loan: (a) an Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing, (b) there exists a material default by Manager under the Management Agreement, beyond any applicable cure and grace period, (c) the Manager shall become insolvent or a debtor in any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding or (d) if at any time Manager has engaged in gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct. Within thirty (30) days after

 

-74-


Manager is removed, a Qualified Manager shall assume management of the Property pursuant to a Replacement Management Agreement.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 5.1.18, whenever Lender’s approval is required (x) of a Qualified Manager under clause (b)(i) of the definition of “Qualified Manager”, (y) a Replacement Management Agreement, or (z) Manager’s subcontracting of any of its responsibilities under the Management Agreement, Lender shall be deemed to have given such approval (A) if Mezzanine Loan D is then outstanding and (1) the Mezzanine Lender D shall have confirmed in writing that Mezzanine Lender D has given such approval pursuant to the terms and provisions of the Mezzanine D Loan Documents or (2) Borrower shall have provided Lender with evidence reasonably acceptable to Lender that Mezzanine Lender D has been deemed to have given such approval pursuant to the terms and provisions of the Mezzanine D Loan Documents (which evidence may consist of copies of all submissions required to obtain such deemed approval thereunder), (B) if Mezzanine Loan D is no longer outstanding but Mezzanine Loan C is then outstanding and (1) Mezzanine Lender C shall have confirmed in writing that the Mezzanine Lender C has given such approval pursuant to the terms and provisions of the Mezzanine C Loan Documents or (2) Borrower shall have provided Lender with evidence reasonably acceptable to Lender that Mezzanine Lender C has been deemed to have given such approval pursuant to the terms and provisions of the Mezzanine C Loan Documents (which evidence may consist of copies of all submissions required to obtain such deemed approval thereunder), or (C) if neither Mezzanine Loan D nor Mezzanine Loan C are then outstanding but Mezzanine Loan B is then outstanding and (1) Mezzanine Lender B shall have confirmed in writing that Mezzanine Lender B has given such approval pursuant to the terms and provisions of the Mezzanine B Loan Documents or (2) Borrower shall have provided Lender with evidence reasonably acceptable to Lender that Mezzanine Lender B has been deemed to have given such approval pursuant to the terms and provisions of the Mezzanine B Loan Documents (which evidence may consist of copies of all submissions required to obtain such deemed approval thereunder); provided, however, that the foregoing shall in no event relieve Borrower of its obligations to deliver to Lender a non- consolidation opinion acceptable to the Rating Agencies (if applicable) and an Assignment of Management Agreement substantially in the form of the Assignment of Management Agreement delivered to Lender by Manager on the date hereof in connection with any new Qualified Manager or Replacement Management Agreement.

(ii) (A) Borrower shall cause Mortgage Borrower to make Replacements when required in order to keep the Property in condition and repair consistent with similar office buildings in the same market segment in the metropolitan area in which the Property is located, and to keep the Property or any portion thereof from deteriorating. Borrower shall cause Mortgage Borrower to complete all Replacements in a good and workmanlike manner as soon as practicable following the commencement of making each such Replacement.

(B) Lender reserves the right, at its option, to approve all contracts or work orders (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) with materialmen, mechanics, suppliers, subcontractors, contractors or other parties providing labor or materials in connection with the Replacements costing, in the aggregate, in excess of (1) $500,000 or (2) for so long as the Mezzanine Loan D is outstanding, $250,000. Subject to the rights of Mortgage Lender, upon Lender’s request, Borrower shall assign any contract or subcontract to Lender. Any approval required of Lender pursuant to this Section 7.4.2(b) shall be deemed to have been given if Lender shall have failed to notify Borrower of its approval or disapproval within ten (10) Business Days following Lender’s receipt of Borrower’s written request together with a true, accurate and complete copy of the contract work order in question. In connection with its review of a contract or work order, Lender may request to receive any and all material information and documentation relating thereto reasonably required by Lender to reach a decision. In order to be effective for the purpose of triggering the ten (10) Business Day time period set forth above, all requests by Borrower for approval pursuant to this Section 7.4.2(b)(ii)(B) must contain the following in bold, capital letters in the request and on the envelope or wrapper enclosing such request: “THIS IS A REQUEST FOR APPROVAL PURSUANT TO SECTION 7.4.2(b)(ii)(B) OF THE LOAN AGREEMENT AMONG LENDER AND BORROWER. FAILURE BY LENDER TO RESPOND TO THIS REQUEST WITHIN TEN (10) BUSINESS DAYS OF THE DATE HEREOF SHALL RESULT IN THE APPROVAL OF THE MATTERS REFERRED TO HEREIN.” Subject to the last sentence of this Section 7.4.2(b)(ii)(B), whenever Lender’s approval is required pursuant to this Section 7.4.2(b)(ii)(B), Lender shall be deemed to have given such approval (A) if Mezzanine Loan D is then outstanding and (1) the Mezzanine Lender D shall have confirmed in writing that Mezzanine Lender D has given such approval pursuant to the terms and provisions of the Mezzanine D Loan Documents or (2) Borrower shall have provided Lender with evidence reasonably acceptable to Lender that Mezzanine Lender D has been deemed to have given such approval pursuant to the terms and provisions of the Mezzanine D Loan Documents (which evidence may consist of copies of all submissions required to obtain such deemed approval thereunder), (B) if Mezzanine Loan D is no longer outstanding but Mezzanine Loan C is then outstanding and (1) Mezzanine Lender C shall have confirmed in writing that the Mezzanine Lender C has given such approval

 

-93-


pursuant to the terms and provisions of the Mezzanine C Loan Documents or (2) Borrower shall have provided Lender with evidence reasonably acceptable to Lender that Mezzanine Lender C has been deemed to have given such approval pursuant to the terms and provisions of the Mezzanine C Loan Documents (which evidence may consist of copies of all submissions required to obtain such deemed approval thereunder), or (C) if neither Mezzanine Loan D nor Mezzanine Loan C are then outstanding but Mezzanine Loan B is then outstanding and (1) Mezzanine Lender B shall have confirmed in writing that Mezzanine Lender B has given such approval pursuant to the terms and provisions of the Mezzanine B Loan Documents or (2) Borrower shall have provided Lender with evidence reasonably acceptable to Lender that Mezzanine Lender B has been deemed to have given such approval pursuant to the terms and provisions of the Mezzanine B Loan Documents (which evidence may consist of copies of all submissions required to obtain such deemed approval thereunder). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that at the time in question Rollover/Replacement Reserve Funds for Replacements shall be held by or for the benefit of Lender, then the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence shall be inapplicable and Lender shall have the approval rights otherwise provided for in this Section 7.4.2(b)(ii)(B).

(C) In the event Lender determines in its reasonable discretion that any Replacement is not being performed in a workmanlike or timely manner or that any Replacement has not been completed in a workmanlike or timely manner, Lender shall have the option without providing any prior notice to Borrower to withhold disbursement for such unsatisfactory Replacement and, subject to the cure periods set forth in Section 8.1(a)(xxi) hereof, to proceed under existing contracts or to contract with third parties to complete such Replacement and to apply the Rollover/Replacement Reserve Fund toward the labor and materials necessary to complete such Replacement and to exercise any and all other remedies available to Lender upon an Event of Default hereunder.

(D) In order to facilitate Lender’s completion or making of the Replacements pursuant to Section 7.4.2(b)(ii)(C) above, Borrower shall cause Mortgage Borrower to grant Lender the right to enter onto the Property and perform any and all work and labor necessary to complete or make the Replacements and/or employ watchmen to protect the Property from damage provided, however, that Lender shall not exercise such right unless an Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing. All sums so expended by Lender, to the extent not from the Rollover/Replacement Reserve Fund, shall be deemed to have been advanced under the Loan to Borrower and secured by fee Pledge Agreement. For this purpose Borrower constitutes and appoints Lender its true and lawful attorney in fact with full power of substitution to complete or undertake the Replacements in the name of Mortgage Borrower. Such power of attorney shall be deemed to be a power coupled with an interest and cannot be revoked. Borrower empowers said attorney in fact as follows: (1) to use any funds in the Rollover/Replacement Reserve Account for the purpose of making or completing the Replacements; (2) to make such additions, changes and

 

-94-


corrections to the Replacements as shall be necessary or desirable to complete the Replacements; (3) to employ such contractors, subcontractors, agents, architects and inspectors as shall be required for such purposes; (4) to pay, settle or compromise all existing bills and claims which are or may become Liens against the Property, or as may be necessary or desirable for the completion of the Replacements, or for clearance of title; (5) to execute all applications and certificates in the name of Mortgage Borrower which may be required by any of the contract documents; (6) to prosecute and defend all actions or proceedings in connection with the Property or the rehabilitation and repair of the Property; and (7) to do any and every act which Borrower might do in its own behalf to fulfill the terms of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender shall not exercise such power of attorney unless an Event of Default exists.

(E) Nothing in this Section 7.4.2 shall: (1) make Lender responsible for making or completing the Replacements; (2) require Lender to expend funds in addition to the Rollover/Replacement Reserve Fund to make or complete any Replacement; (3) obligate Lender to proceed with the Replacements; or (4) obligate Lender to demand from Borrower additional sums to make or complete any Replacement.

(F) The Replacements and all materials, equipment, fixtures, or any other item comprising a part of any Replacement shall be constructed, installed or completed, as applicable, free and clear of all mechanic’s, materialmen’s or other Liens, subject to Borrower’s right to contest such Liens as set forth in Section 8.1(a)(xiii) hereof.

(G) In addition to any insurance required under the Loan Documents, Borrower shall provide or cause to be provided workmen’s compensation insurance, builder’s risk, and public liability insurance and other insurance to the extent required under Applicable Law in connection with a particular Replacement. All such policies shall be in form and amount reasonably satisfactory to Lender. All such policies which can be endorsed with standard mortgagee clauses making loss payable to Lender or its assigns shall be so endorsed. Upon request, certified copies of such policies or certificates evidencing the effectiveness of such policies and the payment of premiums thereunder shall be delivered to Lender.

(iii) (A) It shall be an Event of Default under this Agreement if Borrower fails to comply with any provision of this Section 7.4 and such failure is not cured within sixty (60) days after notice from Lender, subject to extension as is reasonably necessary for Borrower to exercise due diligence to cure or due to Force Majeure. Upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, Lender may use the Rollover/Replacement Reserve Fund (or any portion thereof) for any purpose, including but not limited to completion of the Replacements as provided in Sections 7.4.2(b)(ii)(C) and (D), or for any other repair or replacement to the Property or toward payment of the Debt in such order, proportion and priority as Lender may determine in its sole discretion. Lender’s right to withdraw and apply the Rollover/Replacement Reserve Funds shall be in addition

 

-95-


to all other rights and remedies provided to Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

(B) Nothing in this Agreement shall obligate Lender to apply all or any portion of the Rollover/Replacement Reserve Fund on account of an Event of Default to payment of the Debt or in any specific order or priority.

(c) The insufficiency of any balance in the Rollover/Replacement Reserve Account shall not relieve Borrower from its obligation to fulfill all preservation and maintenance covenants in the Loan Documents.

7.4.3 Waiver of Rollover/Replacement Reserve Fund. Borrower shall be relieved of its obligation to make deposits of Rollover/Replacement Reserve Funds and Lender shall not be entitled to demand that Borrower establish such reserves with Lender, provided that (a) Mortgage Borrower is required to and does make or cause to be made monthly deposits to a rollover/replacement reserve account pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Agreement and (b) Lender receives evidence reasonably acceptable to it of the making of such deposits (it being agreed that evidence provided by the Servicer shall be deemed reasonably acceptable).

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 7.7.1, Mortgage Borrower’s obligation to make any deposits into the Debt Service Shortfall Reserve Fund shall be waived (and if Debt Service Shortfall Reserve Funds are on deposit, Mortgage Borrower shall be entitled to withdraw the amounts deposited therein) if Mortgage Borrower delivers to Mortgage Lender a Letter of Credit in the face amount of the amount required to be on deposit with Mortgage Lender in the Debt Service Shortfall Reserve Fund.

7.7.2 Withdrawals from the Debt Service Shortfall Reserve Fund. Disbursements from the Debt Service Shortfall Reserve Funds shall be made in accordance with the Section 7.7.2 of the Mortgage Loan Agreement.

Until expended or applied in accordance herewith, the Reserve Funds and the related Accounts shall constitute additional security for the Debt.

(b) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender shall have no obligation to disburse any Reserve Funds, and Lender may, in addition to

 

-96-


any and all other rights and remedies available to Lender, apply any sums then present in any or all of the Reserve Funds to the payment of the Debt in any order in its sole discretion.

(e) Borrower shall not (and shall not permit Mortgage Borrower to), without obtaining the prior written consent of Lender, further pledge, assign or grant any security interest in any Reserve Fund or related Account or the monies deposited therein 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 Lender as the secured party, to be filed with respect thereto or any right of the depositary bank or securities intermediary to be paid ordinary fees and charges for such Account, for which there may be a set-off right.

(f) Borrower shall indemnify Lender and hold Lender harmless from and against any and all Losses arising from or in any way connected with the Reserve Funds or the related Accounts or the performance of the obligations for which the Reserve Funds or the related Accounts were established, except to the extent arising from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Lender, its agents or employees. Borrower shall assign to Lender all rights and claims Borrower may have against all Persons supplying labor, materials or other services which are to be paid from or secured by the Reserve Funds or the related Accounts; provided, however, that Lender may not pursue any such right or claim unless an Event of Default has occurred and remains uncured.

Borrower shall pay to Lender all of Lender’s reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses in connection therewith. Borrower shall not be entitled to draw from any such Letter of Credit.

7.9.2 Event of Default. An Event of Default shall occur if Borrower shall have any reimbursement or similar obligation with respect to a Letter of Credit, or if Borrower shall fail to (i) replace or extend any Letter of Credit prior to the expiration thereof or (ii) replace any outstanding Letter of Credit within thirty (30) days of Lender’s notice that such Letter of Credit fails to meet the requirements set forth in the definition of Letter of Credit. Lender shall not be required to exercise its rights under Section 7.9.3 below in order to prevent any such Event of Default from occurring and shall not be liable for any losses due to the insolvency of the issuer of the Letter of Credit as a result of any failure or delay by Lender in the exercise of such rights, but if Lender draws on the Letter of Credit and the issuer honors such draw and no Event of

(xxi) if any of the assumptions contained in the Insolvency Opinion, or in any other “non-consolidation” opinion delivered to Lender in connection with the Loan (it being understood that this provision shall not apply to any “non-consolidation” opinion delivered to Lender in connection with the origination of the Loan following a transfer under Section 5.2.11), or in any other “non-consolidation” opinion delivered subsequent to the closing of the Loan, is or shall become untrue in any material respect;

(xxiv) if there shall be a default under the Pledge Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents beyond any applicable notice and cure periods contained in such documents, whether as to Borrower or the Collateral, or if any other such event shall occur or condition shall exist, if the effect of such event or condition is to accelerate the maturity of any portion of the Debt or to permit Lender to accelerate the maturity of all or any portion of the Debt;

(b) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default described in clauses (vi) or (vii) above) and at any time thereafter, in addition to any other rights or remedies available to it pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or at law or in equity, Lender may take such action, without notice or demand, that Lender deems advisable to protect and enforce its rights against Borrower and in and to the Property or the Collateral, including, without limitation, declaring the Debt to be immediately due and payable, and Lender may enforce or avail itself of any or all rights or remedies provided in the Loan Documents against Borrower and any part of the Property or the Collateral, including, without limitation, all rights or remedies available at law or in equity; and upon any Event of Default described in clauses (vi) or (vii) above, the Debt and all other obligations of Borrower hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall immediately and automatically become due and payable, without notice or demand, and Borrower hereby expressly waives any such notice or demand, anything contained herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding.

Section 8.2 Remedies. (a) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, all or any one or more of the rights, powers, privileges and other remedies available to Lender against Borrower under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents executed and delivered by, or applicable to, Borrower or at law or in equity may be exercised by Lender at any time and from time to time, whether or not all or any of the Debt shall be declared due and payable, and whether or not Lender shall have commenced any foreclosure proceeding or other action for the enforcement of its rights and remedies under any of the Loan Documents with respect to all or any part of the Collateral. Any such actions taken by Lender shall be cumulative and concurrent and may be pursued independently, singly, successively, together or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Lender may determine in its sole discretion, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, without impairing or otherwise affecting the other rights and remedies of Lender permitted by Applicable Law, equity or contract or as set forth herein or in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Borrower agrees that if an Event of Default is continuing (i) Lender is not subject to any “one action” or “election of remedies” law or rule, and (ii) all Liens and other rights, remedies or privileges provided to Lender shall remain in full force and effect until Lender has exhausted all of its remedies against the Collateral and the Collateral has been foreclosed, sold and/or otherwise realized upon in satisfaction of the Debt or the Debt has been paid in full.

(b) With respect to Borrower and the Property, nothing contained herein or in any other Loan Document shall be construed as requiring Lender to resort to any Collateral for the satisfaction of any of the Debt in preference or priority to any other Collateral, and Lender may seek satisfaction out of the Property or any other Collateral or any part thereof, in its absolute discretion in respect of the Debt. In addition, Lender shall have the right from time to time to partially foreclose the Pledge Agreement in any manner and for any amounts secured by the Pledge Agreement then due and payable as determined by Lender in its sole discretion including, without limitation, the following circumstances: (i) in the event Borrower defaults beyond any applicable grace period in the payment of one or more scheduled payments of

 

-103-


principal and interest, Lender may foreclose the Pledge Agreement to recover such delinquent payments, or (ii) in the event Lender elects to accelerate less than the entire outstanding principal balance of the Loan, Lender may foreclose the Pledge Agreement to recover so much of the principal balance of the Loan as Lender may accelerate and such other sums secured by the Pledge Agreement as Lender may elect. Notwithstanding one or more partial foreclosures, the Property shall remain subject to the Pledge Agreement to secure payment of sums secured by the Pledge Agreement and not previously recovered.

(c) Lender shall have the right, from time to time, to sever the Note and the other Loan Documents into one or more separate notes, deeds of trust, mortgages and other security documents (the Severed Loan Documents) in such denominations as Lender shall determine in its sole discretion for purposes of evidencing and enforcing its rights and remedies provided hereunder. Borrower shall execute and deliver to Lender from time to time, promptly after the request of Lender, a severance agreement and such other documents as Lender shall request in order to effect the severance described in the preceding sentence, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender. Borrower hereby absolutely and irrevocably appoints Lender as its true and lawful attorney, coupled with an interest, in its name and stead to make and execute all documents necessary or desirable to effect the aforesaid severance, Borrower ratifying all that its said attorney shall do by virtue thereof; provided, however, Lender shall not make or execute any such documents under such power until three (3) days after notice has been given to Borrower by Lender of Lender’s intent to exercise its rights under such power. The Severed Loan Documents shall not contain any representations, warranties or covenants not contained in the Loan Documents and any such representations and warranties contained in the Severed Loan Documents will be given by Borrower only as of the Closing Date.

Section 8.3 Remedies Cumulative; Waivers. The rights, powers and remedies of Lender under this Agreement shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any other right, power or remedy which Lender may have against Borrower pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or existing at law or in equity or otherwise. Lender’s rights, powers and remedies may be pursued singularly, concurrently or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Lender may determine in Lender’s sole discretion. No delay or omission to exercise any remedy, right or power accruing upon an Event of Default shall impair any such remedy, right or power or shall be construed as a waiver thereof, but any such remedy, right or power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. A waiver of one or more Defaults or Events of Default with respect to Borrower shall not be construed to be a waiver of any subsequent Default or Event of Default by Borrower or to impair any remedy, right or power consequent thereon.

ARTICLE IX

Lender may, at any time, sell, transfer or assign the Note, this Agreement, the Pledge Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and any or all servicing rights with respect thereto, or grant participations therein or issue mortgage pass-through certificates or other securities (the Securities) evidencing a beneficial interest in a rated or unrated public offering or private placement (a Securitization)

At the request of the holder of the Note and, to the extent not already required to be provided by Borrower under this Agreement, Borrower shall, at such noteholder’s expense to the extent and as set forth in Section 9(g) hereof, use reasonable efforts to provide information in the possession or control of Borrower and not in possession of Lender or which may reasonably be required to satisfy the market standards to which the holder of the Note customarily adheres or which may be reasonably required in the marketplace or by the Rating Agencies in connection with a Securitization or the sale of the Note or the participations or Securities, including, without limitation, to:

(a) (i) provide such financial and other information with respect to the Property, Collateral, Mortgage Borrower, Borrower, Manager and Guarantor, including but not limited to updated financial and operating statements currently created during the ordinary course of business, (ii) provide budgets relating to the Property and Collateral and (iii) to perform or permit or cause to be performed or permitted such site inspection, appraisals, market studies, environmental reviews and reports (Phase I’s and, if appropriate, Phase II’s), engineering reports and other due diligence investigations of the Property, as may be reasonably requested by the holder of the Note or the Rating Agencies or as may be necessary or appropriate in connection with the Securitization (the Provided Information), together, if customary, with appropriate verification and/or consents of the Provided Information through letters of auditors or opinions of counsel of independent attorneys reasonably acceptable to Lender and acceptable to the Rating Agencies;

(d) execute such amendments to the Loan Documents and Organizational Documents as may be requested by the holder of the Note or the Rating Agencies or otherwise to effect the Securitization; provided, however, that Borrower shall not be required to modify or amend any Loan Document if such modification or amendment would (except for modifications and amendments required to be made pursuant to Section 9.1(e) below) (i) change the interest rate, the stated maturity or the amortization of principal set forth in the Note, (ii) modify or

 

-105-


amend any other material economic term of the Loan or (iii) otherwise increase the obligations or liabilities or decrease the rights of Borrower pursuant to the Loan Documents;

(e) if Lender elects, in its sole discretion, prior to or upon a Securitization, to split the Loan into two or more parts, or the Note into multiple component notes or tranches which may have different interest rates, amortization payments, principal amounts and maturities, Borrower agrees to cooperate with Lender in connection with the foregoing and to execute the required modifications and amendments to the Note, this Agreement and the Loan Documents and to provide opinions necessary to effectuate the same. Such Notes or components may be assigned different interest rates, so long as the initial weighted average of such interest rates does not exceed the Applicable Interest Rate and the monthly debt service payments do not exceed the Monthly Debt Service Payment Amount; provided, however, that Borrower shall not be required to modify or amend any Loan Document if such modification or amendment would (except for modifications and amendments described in this Section 9.1(e)) (i) change the interest rate, the stated maturity or the amortization of principal set forth in the Note, (ii) modify or amend any other material economic term of the Loan or (iii) otherwise increase the obligations or liabilities or decrease the rights of Borrower pursuant to the Loan Documents; and

(f) make such representations and warranties as of the closing date of the Securitization with respect to the Collateral, Property, Borrower, and the Loan Documents as are customarily provided in securitization transactions and as may be reasonably requested by the holder of the Note or the Rating Agencies and consistent with the facts covered by such representations and warranties as they exist on the date thereof, including the representations and warranties made in the Loan Documents.

(g) Lender shall pay for any third-party costs and expenses incurred by Borrower in connection with Borrower’s complying with the requests made under this Section 9.1, other than Borrower’s legal fees and expenses. Except as otherwise provided in this Article IX, in no event shall Borrower be obligated to pay for any costs and expenses incurred by Lender or by Borrower, other than Borrower’s legal fees, in connection with a Securitization other than any costs and expenses incurred by Lender due to Borrower’s failure to perform or comply with Borrower’s agreements and covenants contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents relating to documents, instruments or other items required to be delivered or produced by Borrower.

Section 9.2 Securitization Indemnification. (a) Borrower understands that certain of the Provided Information may be included in disclosure documents in connection with the Securitization, including, without limitation, a prospectus supplement, private placement memorandum, offering circular or other offering document (each a Disclosure Document) and may also be included in filings (an Exchange Act Filing) with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act), or the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act), or provided or made available to Investors or prospective Investors in the Securities, the Rating Agencies, and service providers relating to the Securitization. In the event that the Disclosure Document is required to be revised prior to the sale of all Securities, Borrower will cooperate with the holder of the Note in updating the Disclosure Document by providing all current information necessary to keep the Disclosure Document accurate and complete in all material respects.

 

-106-


(b) Borrower agrees to provide in connection with each of (i) a preliminary and a private placement memorandum or (ii) a preliminary and final prospectus or prospectus supplement, as applicable, or (iii) collateral and structured term sheets or similar materials, an indemnification certificate (A) certifying that Borrower has carefully examined the relevant portions of such memorandum or prospectus or term sheets, as applicable, which relate to Borrower and its Affiliates or the Property, including without limitation, the sections entitled “Special Considerations,” “Description of the Mortgages,” “Description of the Mortgage Loans and Mortgaged Property,” and “The Borrower” and such sections (and any other sections reasonably requested) do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements made, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, (B) indemnifying Lender (and for purposes of this Section 9.2, Lender hereunder shall include its officers and directors), the Affiliate of Morgan Stanley Mortgage Capital Holdings LLC (Morgan Stanley) that has filed the registration statement relating to the Securitization (the Registration Statement), each of its directors, each of its officers who have signed the Registration Statement and each Person who controls the Affiliate within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (collectively, the Morgan Stanley Group), and Morgan Stanley, each of its directors and each Person who controls Morgan Stanley within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act (collectively, the Underwriter Group) for any Losses, claims, damages or liabilities (collectively, the Liabilities) to which Lender, the Morgan Stanley Group or the Underwriter Group may become subject insofar as the Liabilities arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in such sections described in clause (A) above, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated in such sections or necessary in order to make the statements in such sections or in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading and (C) agreeing to reimburse Lender, the Morgan Stanley Group and the Underwriter Group for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by Lender the Morgan Stanley Group and the Underwriter Group in connection with investigating or defending the Liabilities; provided, however, that Borrower will be liable in any such case under clauses (B) or (C) above only to the extent that any such Liability arises out of or is based upon any such untrue statement or omission made therein in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to Lender by or on behalf of Borrower in connection with the preparation of the memorandum or prospectus or in connection with the underwriting of the debt, including, without limitation, financial statements of Borrower, operating statements, rent rolls, environmental site assessment reports and property condition reports with respect to the Property. This indemnification will be in addition to any liability which Borrower may otherwise have. Moreover, the indemnification provided for in Clauses (B) and (C) above shall be effective whether or not an indemnification certificate described in (A) above is provided and shall be applicable based on information previously provided by Borrower or its Affiliates if Borrower does not provide the indemnification certificate; provided, however, Borrower shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such Liabilities relate solely to errors or omissions contained in documents prepared by a Person other than Borrower, Principal, Guarantor or any of their Affiliates, unless Borrower knew or should have known about such error or omission.

(c) In connection with filings under the Exchange Act, Borrower agrees to indemnify (i) Lender, the Morgan Stanley Group and the Underwriter Group for Liabilities to

 

-107-


which Lender, the Morgan Stanley Group or the Underwriter Group may become subject insofar as the Liabilities arise out of or are based upon the omission or actual omission to state in the Provided Information a material fact required to be stated in the Provided Information in order to make the statements in the Provided Information, in light of the circumstances under which they were made not misleading and (ii) reimburse Lender, the Morgan Stanley Group or the Underwriter Group for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by Lender, the Morgan Stanley Group or the Underwriter Group in connection with defending or investigating the Liabilities.

(d) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 9.2 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 9.2, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof, but the omission to so notify the indemnifying party will not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability which the indemnifying party may have to any indemnified party hereunder except to the extent that failure to notify causes prejudice to the indemnifying party, hi the event that any action is brought against any indemnified party, and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled, jointly with any other indemnifying party, to participate therein and, to the extent that it (or they) may elect by written notice delivered to the indemnified party promptly after receiving the aforesaid notice from such indemnified party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party. After notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party under this Section 9.2 the indemnifying party shall not be responsible for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided, however, if the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there are any legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to assert such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one such separate counsel (in addition to indemnifying party’s own attorneys) regardless of the number of indemnified parties.

(e) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which the indemnifications provided for in Section 9.2(b) or (c) is or are for any reason held to be unenforceable by an indemnified party in respect of any Liability (or action in respect thereof) referred to therein which would otherwise be indemnifiable under Section 9.2(b) or (c), the indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such Liability (or action in respect thereof); provided, however, that no Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. In determining the amount of contribution to which the respective parties are entitled, the following factors shall be considered: (i) Morgan Stanley’s and Borrower’s relative knowledge and access to information concerning the matter with respect to which claim was asserted; (ii) the opportunity to correct and prevent any statement or omission; and (iii) any other equitable considerations appropriate in the circumstances. Lender and Borrower hereby agree

 

-108-


that it would not be equitable if the amount of such contribution were determined solely by pro rata or per capita allocation.

(f) The liabilities and obligations of both Borrower and Lender under this Section 9.2 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the satisfaction and discharge of the Debt.

Section 9.3 Servicer. At the option of Lender, the Loan may be serviced by a servicer/trustee (the Servicer) selected by Lender, and Lender may delegate all or any portion of its responsibilities under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to the Servicer pursuant to a servicing agreement (the Servicing Agreement) between Lender and Servicer. Borrower shall not be responsible for any set-up fees or any regular monthly servicing fee due to the Servicer under the Servicing Agreement.

Section 9.4 Exculpation. (a) Except as otherwise provided herein, in the Pledge Agreement or in the other Loan Documents, Lender shall not enforce the liability and obligation of Borrower to perform and observe the obligations contained in this Agreement, the Note, the Pledge Agreement or the other Loan Documents (other than the Environmental Indemnity and the Guaranty) by any action or proceeding wherein a money judgment shall be sought against Borrower, except that Lender may bring a foreclosure action, action for specific performance or other appropriate action or proceeding to enable Lender to enforce and realize upon this Agreement, the Note, the Pledge Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and the interest in the Collateral or and any other collateral given to Lender created by this Agreement, the Note, the Pledge Agreement and the other Loan Documents; provided, however, that any judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be enforceable against Borrower only to the extent of Borrower’s interest in the Collateral and in any other collateral given to Lender. Lender, by accepting this Agreement, the Note and the Pledge Agreement, agrees that it shall not, except as otherwise provided in the Pledge Agreement, sue for, seek or demand any deficiency judgment against Borrower in any such action or proceeding, under or by reason of or under or in connection with this Agreement, the Note, the other Loan Documents or the Pledge Agreement. The provisions of this Section shall not, however, (i) constitute a waiver, release or impairment of any obligation evidenced or secured by this Agreement, the Note, the other Loan Documents or the Pledge Agreement; (ii) impair the right of Lender to name Borrower as a party defendant in any action or suit for judicial foreclosure and sale under the Pledge Agreement; (iii) affect the validity or enforceability of any indemnity (including, without limitation, the Environmental Indemnity), guaranty (including, without limitation, the Guaranty), master lease or similar instrument made in connection with this Agreement, the Note, the Pledge Agreement, or the other Loan Documents; (iv) impair the right of Lender to obtain the appointment of a receiver; (v) [intentionally deleted]; (vi) impair the right of Lender to enforce the provisions of Sections 9.9 and 10.2 of the Pledge Agreement (to the extent of Borrower’s interest in the Collateral) or Sections 4.1.8, 4.1.28, 5.1.9 and 5.2.8 hereof (to the extent of Borrower’s interest in the Collateral); or (vii) impair the right of Lender to obtain a deficiency judgment or other judgment on the Note against Borrower if necessary to obtain any Insurance Proceeds or Awards to which Lender would otherwise be entitled under the Pledge Agreement; provided, however, Lender shall only enforce such judgment to the extent of the Insurance Proceeds and/or Awards.

 

-109-


(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 9.4 to the contrary, Borrower shall be personally liable to Lender for the Losses it incurs due to: (i) fraud or intentional misrepresentation by Borrower, Mortgage Borrower or its Affiliates in connection with the execution and the delivery of this Agreement, the Note, the Pledge Agreement or the other Loan Documents; (ii) Borrower’s or Mortgage Borrower’s misappropriation of Rents received by Borrower or Mortgage Borrower during the continuance of an Event of Default; (iii) Borrower’s or Mortgage Borrower’s misappropriation of Security Deposits or Rents collected more than thirty (30) days in advance; (iv) Borrower’s or Mortgage Borrower’s misappropriation of Insurance Proceeds or Awards or Net Liquidation Proceeds After Debt Service; (v) Borrower’s or Mortgage Borrower’s failure to pay Taxes, Other Charges or Lien Charges (except to the extent that sums sufficient to pay such amounts have been deposited in escrow or reserved pursuant to the terms of Section 7.2 of the Mortgage Loan Agreement or Section 7.2 hereof and except to the extent that such failure to pay such Taxes, Other Charges or Lien Charges is due solely to the failure of the Property to generate Gross Income from Operations sufficient to pay such Taxes, Other Charges or Lien Charges when due); (vi) Borrower’s or Mortgage Borrower’s failure to return or to reimburse Lender for all material Personal Property taken from the Property by or on behalf of Borrower or Mortgage Borrower and not replaced with Personal Property of the same utility and of the same or greater value (provided the replacement shall not be required if such Personal Property is no longer required for the operation of the Property); (vii) any act of intentional physical waste or arson by Borrower, Mortgage Borrower, Principal, or any Affiliate thereof or by Guarantor; (viii) any material Event of Default under Sections 4.1.35 (but excluding Sections 4.1.35(g) and (r) hereof), or in the event of Principal’s material default under Section 4.1.35 (but excluding Sections 4.1.35(g) and (r)) of this Agreement; (ix) the breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty contained in, or Borrower’s or Mortgage Borrower’s failure to comply with the provisions of, Sections 4.1.39 or 5.1.19 of this Agreement; (x) Borrower’s indemnification of Lender set forth in Section 9.2 of this Agreement; or (xi) any breach of any representation, warranty or covenant contained in Section 4 of the Pledge Agreement.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the agreement of Lender not to pursue recourse liability as set forth in subsection (a) above SHALL BECOME NULL AND VOID and shall be of no further force and effect (i) in the event of the existence of an Event of Default under Section 5.2.10 hereof or the event of an Event of Default under Section 5.2.1 of this Agreement arising out of a voluntary Lien; (ii) Borrower fails to obtain Lender’s prior consent to any subordinate financing or other voluntary Lien encumbering the Property or the Collateral; (iii) Borrower or Mortgage Borrower files a voluntary petition under the Bankruptcy Code or any other Federal or state bankruptcy or insolvency law; (iv) an Affiliate, officer, director, or representative which controls, directly or indirectly, Borrower or Mortgage Borrower files, or joins in the filing of, an involuntary petition against Borrower or Mortgage Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code or any other Federal or state bankruptcy or insolvency law, or solicits or causes to be solicited petitioning creditors for any involuntary petition against Borrower or Mortgage Borrower from any Person; (v) Borrower or Mortgage Borrower files an answer consenting to or otherwise acquiescing in or joining in any involuntary petition filed against it, by any other Person under the Bankruptcy Code or any other Federal or state bankruptcy or insolvency law, or solicits or causes to be solicited petitioning creditors for any involuntary petition from any Person; (vi) any Affiliate, officer, director, or representative which controls Borrower or Mortgage Borrower consents to or acquiesces in or joins in an application for the appointment of

(d) Nothing herein shall be deemed to be a waiver of any right which Lender may have under Section 506(a), 506(b), 1111 (b) or any other provision of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code to file a claim for the full amount of the indebtedness secured by the Pledge Agreement or to require that all collateral shall continue to secure all of the indebtedness owing to Lender in accordance with this Agreement, the Note, the Pledge Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Note, the Pledge Agreement, or the other Loan Documents, no direct or indirect, parent, shareholder, partner, members, principal, affiliate, employee, officer, director, agent or representative of Borrower (excluding the Guarantor and Indemnitors in their respective capacities as guarantors/indemnitors under the Loan but including the direct or indirect shareholders, partners, members, principals, affiliates, employees, officers, directors, agents or representatives of the Guarantor and Indemnitors) (each a Related Party) shall have any personal liability for, nor be joined as a party to any action (except as required by any Legal Requirement) with respect to (i) the payment of any sum of money which is or may be payable hereunder or under the Pledge Agreement or the other Loan Documents, including, but not limited to, the repayment of the Debt, or (ii) the performance or discharge of any covenants, obligations or undertakings of Borrower or any Related Party with respect thereto.

In addition, Borrower and Lender agree that if, in

connection with a Securitization of the Mortgage Loan, it is determined by the Rating Agencies or Lender that, if the principal amount of the Loan was decreased and, as a result the principal amount of the Mortgage Loan was increased, more “investment grade” rated securities could be issued, then (i) each of them shall take all actions provided for in the documentation for the Loan as are reasonably necessary to effect the “resizing” of the Loan and the Mortgage Loan and (ii) Borrower shall exercise commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Mortgage Borrower to comply with its agreements to effect a “resizing”. In connection with the foregoing, Borrower agrees, at Lender’s sole cost and expense other than Borrower’s attorneys’ fees with respect to Lender’s first exercise of its rights under this Section 9.5, to execute and deliver such documents and other agreements reasonably required by Lender and/or Mortgage Lender to “re-size” the Loan, including, without limitation, an amendment to this Agreement, the Note, the Pledge Agreement and the other Loan Documents, amendments to, or replacements of, the Interest Rate Cap Agreement modifying the notional amounts to reflect the “re-sized” loan (provided that the forms of such amendments will be substantially on the same forms as similar transactions between Lender and Affiliates of Broadway Partners), and Borrower shall not be required to execute and deliver any documents or agreements which would (i) change the weighted average interest rate on the outstanding principal balances of the Note and the Mortgage Note from the weighted average interest rate of the Note and the Mortgage Note immediately prior to such resizing, the stated maturity or the amortization of principal set forth in the Note, (ii) modify or amend any other material or economic term of the Loan in a manner that has a material adverse effect on Borrower, or (ii) materially increase Borrower’s obligations and liabilities under the Loan Documents or materially decrease the rights of Borrower under the Loan Documents. All costs and expenses incurred by Borrower and Lender in connection with compliance with this Section 9.5 shall be paid by Lender other than Borrower’s legal fees and expenses which shall be paid by Borrower.

Section 9.6 Replacement Guarantor. Upon the occurrence of any of the events set forth in Sections 8.1(a)(vi), (vii), (xiv) or (xvii) hereof, Borrower may cause the applicable Guarantor to be substituted or replaced by a Replacement Guarantor prior to the time that the occurrence of any of the foregoing events becomes an Event of Default or if the occurrence of any of the foregoing events is an immediate Event of Default, within ten (10) days following such occurrence. Borrower (a) shall deliver or cause to be delivered to Lender, (i) financial statements or other information reasonably required by Lender with respect to such proposed Replacement Guarantor and (ii) such legal opinions as Lender may reasonably require, including but not limited to an Insolvency Opinion and (b) shall cause such proposed Replacement Guarantor to assume all of the obligations of the applicable Guarantor under the Guaranty and Environmental Indemnity, in a manner reasonably satisfactory to Lender, including, without limitation, by entering into an assumption agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Lender.

Section 9.7 Syndication.

9.7.1 Syndication. The provisions of this Section 9.7 shall only apply in the event that the Loan is syndicated in accordance with the provisions of this Section 9.7 set forth below.

 

-112-


9.7.2 Sale of Loan, Co-Lenders, Participations and Servicing. (a) Lender and any Co-Lender may, at their option, without Borrower’s consent (but with notice to Borrower, which Lender or such Co-Lender shall endeavor (with no obligation to do so) to give to Borrower prior to such sale), sell with novation all or any part of their right, title and interest in, and to, and under the Loan (the Syndication), to one or more additional lenders (each a Co-Lender). Each additional Co-Lender shall enter into an assignment and assumption agreement (the Assignment and Assumption) assigning a portion of Lender’s or Co-Lender’s rights and obligations under the Loan, and pursuant to which the additional Co-Lender accepts such assignment and assumes the assigned obligations. From and after the effective date specified in the Assignment and Assumption (i) each Co-Lender shall be a party hereto and to each Loan Document to the extent of the applicable percentage or percentages set forth in the Assignment and Assumption and, except as specified otherwise herein, shall succeed to the rights and obligations of Lender and the Co-Lenders hereunder and thereunder in respect of the Loan, and (ii) Lender, as lender and each Co-Lender, as applicable, shall, to the extent such rights and obligations have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Assumption, relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations hereunder and under the Loan Documents.

(b) The liabilities of Lender and each of the Co-Lenders shall be several and not joint, and Lender’s and each Co-Lender’s obligations to Borrower under this Agreement shall be reduced by the amount of each such Assignment and Assumption. Neither Lender nor any Co-Lender shall be responsible for the Obligations of any other Co-Lender. Lender and each Co-Lender shall be liable to Borrower only for their respective proportionate shares of the Loan. If for any reason any of the Co-Lenders shall fail or refuse to abide by their obligations under this Agreement, Lender and the other Co-Lenders shall not be relieved of their obligations, if any, hereunder; notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender and the Co-Lenders shall have the right, but not the obligation, at their sole option, to make the defaulting Co-Lender’s pro rata share of such advance pursuant to the Co-Lending Agreement.

(c) Borrower agrees that it shall, in connection with any sale of all or any portion of the Loan, whether in whole or to an additional Co-Lender or Participant, within ten (10) Business Days after requested by Agent, furnish Agent with the certificates required under Sections 5.1.10 and 5.1.13 hereof and such other information as reasonably requested by any additional Co-Lender or Participant in performing its due diligence in connection with its purchase of an interest in the Loan. Lender shall pay for any third party costs and expenses incurred by Borrower in connection with Borrower’s complying with the requests made under this Section 9.7 other than Borrower’s legal fees and expenses.

(d) Lender (or an Affiliate of Lender) shall act as administrative agent for itself and the Co-Lenders (together with any successor administrative agent, the Agent) pursuant to this Section 9.7. Borrower acknowledges that Lender, as Agent, shall have the sole and exclusive authority to execute and perform this Agreement and each Loan Document on behalf of itself, as Lender and as agent for itself and the Co-Lenders subject to the terms of the Co-Lending Agreement. Lender acknowledges that Lender, as Agent, shall retain the exclusive right to grant approvals and give consents with respect to the operating budgets required to be delivered hereunder and with respect to matters concerning the establishment and administration of the Mezzanine Deposit Account and the other Reserve Funds. Except as otherwise provided

 

-113-


herein, Borrower shall have no obligation to recognize or deal directly with any Co-Lender, and no Co-Lender shall have any right to deal directly with Borrower with respect to the rights, benefits and obligations of Borrower under this Agreement, the Loan Documents or any one or more documents or instruments in respect thereof. Borrower may rely conclusively on the actions of Lender as Agent to bind Lender and the Co-Lenders, notwithstanding that the particular action in question may, pursuant to this Agreement or the Co-Lending Agreement be subject to the consent or direction of some or all of the Co-Lenders. Lender may resign as Agent of the Co-Lenders, in its sole discretion or if required to by the Co-Lenders in accordance with the term of the Co-Lending Agreement, in each case without the consent of Borrower. Upon any such resignation, a successor Agent shall be determined pursuant to the terms of the Co-Lending Agreement. The term Agent shall mean any successor Agent.

(e) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement, the Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth herein (and in the Co-Lending Agreement) and no covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities of Agent shall be implied by or inferred from this Agreement, the Co-Lending Agreement, or any other Loan Document, or otherwise exist against Agent.

(f) Except to the extent its obligations hereunder and its interest in the Loan have been assigned pursuant to one or more Assignments and Assumption, Lender, as Agent, shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Co-Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not Agent, respectively. The term “Co-Lender” or “Co-Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include Lender in its individual capacity. Lender and the other Co-Lenders and their respective Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as trustee under indentures of, and generally engage in any kind of business with, Borrower, or any Affiliate of Borrower and any Person who may do business with or own securities of Borrower or any Affiliate of Borrower, all as if they were not serving in such capacities hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to each other.

(g) If required by any Co-Lender, Borrower hereby agrees to execute supplemental notes in the principal amount of such Co-Lender’s pro rata share of the Loan substantially in the form of the Note, provided any such supplemental note does not represent any new indebtedness and a copy of the existing Note is returned to Borrower with a notation reflecting that such supplemental note has been issued, and such supplemental note shall (i) be payable to order of such Co-Lender, (ii) be dated as of the Closing Date, and (iii) mature on the Maturity Date. Such supplemental note shall provide that it evidences a portion of the existing indebtedness hereunder and under the Note and not any new or additional indebtedness of Borrower. The term “Note” as used in this Agreement and in all the other Loan Documents shall include all such supplemental notes. Such supplemental notes shall not increase any obligations or liabilities, or decrease any rights, of Borrower under the Loan Documents.

(h) Lender, as Agent, shall maintain at its domestic lending office or at such other location as Lender, as Agent, shall designate in writing to each Co-Lender and Borrower a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to and accepted by it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Co-Lenders, the amount of each Co-Lender’s proportionate share of the Loan and the name and address of each Co-Lender’s agent for service of process (the Register). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all

 

-114-


purposes, absent manifest error, and Borrower, Lender, as Agent, and the Co-Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Co-Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection and copying by Borrower or any Co-Lender during normal business hours upon reasonable prior notice to the Agent. A Co-Lender may change its address and its agent for service of process upon written notice to Lender, as Agent, which notice shall only be effective upon actual receipt by Lender, as Agent, which receipt will be acknowledged by Lender, as Agent, upon request.

(i) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any financial institution or other entity may be sold a participation interest in the Loan by Lender or any Co-Lender without Borrower’s consent (such financial institution or entity, a Participant) (x) if such sale is without novation and (y) if the other conditions set forth in this paragraph are met. No Participant shall be considered a Co-Lender hereunder or under the Note or the Loan Documents. No Participant shall have any rights under this Agreement, the Note or any of the Loan Documents and the Participant’s rights in respect of such participation shall be solely against Lender or Co-Lender, as the case may be, as set forth in the participation agreement executed by and between Lender or Co-Lender, as the case may be, and such Participant. No participation shall relieve Lender or Co-Lender, as the case may be, from its obligations hereunder or under the Note or the Loan Documents and Lender or Co-Lender, as the case may be, shall remain solely responsible for the performance of its obligations hereunder. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 2.2.3 and 2.2.8 than the Lender or Co-Lender, as applicable, would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation interest sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation interest to such Participant is made with Borrower’s prior written consent. A Participant would not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.2.8 unless Borrower is notified of the participation interest sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of Borrower, to comply with Section 2.2.8 as though it were a Lender or a Co-Lender.

(j) Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this Agreement, Lender or any Co-Lender may at any time create a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including, without limitation, amounts owing to it in favor of any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with Regulation A of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), provided that no such security interest or the exercise by the secured party of any of its rights thereunder shall release Lender or Co-Lender from its funding obligations hereunder.

Section 9.8 Intercreditor Agreement. (a) Lender, Mortgage Lender and the Other Mezzanine Lender are parties to a certain intercreditor agreement dated as of the date hereof (the Interereditor Agreement) memorializing their relative rights and obligations with respect to the Mortgage Loan, the Loan, Mortgage Borrower, Borrower and the Property. Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that (i) such Intercreditor Agreement is intended solely for the benefit of Lender, Mortgage Lender and the Other Mezzanine Lender and (ii) Borrower, Mortgage Borrower and the Other Mezzanine Borrower are not intended third-party beneficiaries of any of the provisions therein and shall not be entitled to rely on any of the provisions contained therein. Lender, Mortgage Lender and the Other Mezzanine Lender shall have no obligation to disclose to Borrower the contents of the Intercreditor Agreement.

 

-115-


Borrower’s obligations hereunder are independent of such Intercreditor Agreement and remain unmodified by the terms and provisions thereof.

(b) In the event Lender is required pursuant to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement to pay over any payment or distribution of assets, whether in cash, property or securities which is applied to the Debt, including, without limitation, any proceeds of the Property previously received by Lender on account of the Loan to Mortgage Lender or to the Other Mezzanine Lender to be applied to the “Debt” under and as defined in the Mortgage Loan Agreement or the Other Mezzanine Loan Documents, then any amount so paid shall continue to be owing pursuant to the Loan Documents as part of the Debt notwithstanding the prior receipt of such payment by Lender.

Section 9.9 Discussions with Mortgage Lender and Other Mezzanine Lender. In connection with the exercise of its rights as set forth in the Loan Documents, Lender shall have the right at any time to discuss the Property, the Mortgage Loan, the Loan or any other matter directly with Mortgage Lender and/or the Other Mezzanine Lenders and/or their respective consultants, agents or representatives without notice to or permission from Borrower, Guarantor or any other Person, nor shall Lender have any obligation to disclose such discussions or the contents thereof with Borrower, Guarantor or any other Person.

Section 9.10 Independent Approval Rights. If any action, proposed action or other decision is consented to or approved by Mortgage Lender or the Other Mezzanine Lender, such consent or approval shall not, except as and to the extent herein provided otherwise, be binding or controlling on Lender. Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that (i) the risks of Mortgage Lender and the Other Mezzanine Lender in making the Mortgage Loan and the Other Mezzanine 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, the Other Mezzanine Lender and Lender may reasonably reach different conclusions, and (iii) except as and to the extent herein provided otherwise, Lender has an absolute independent right to grant, deny, withhold or condition any requested consent or approval based on its own point of view. Further, the denial by Lender of a requested consent or approval shall not create any liability or other obligation of Lender if the denial of such consent or approval results directly or indirectly in a default under the Mortgage Loan, and Borrower hereby waives any claim of liability against Lender arising from any such denial.

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

Section 10.9 Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under Applicable Law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under Applicable Law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

Section 10.10 Preferences. In the event any payment by Borrower to Lender is deemed, or would be deemed, usurious, Lender shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply or reverse and reapply any and all payments by Borrower to any portion of the obligations of Borrower hereunder. To the extent Borrower makes a payment or payments to Lender, which payment or proceeds or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law, State or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then, to the extent of such payment or proceeds received, the obligations hereunder or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continue in full force and effect, as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by Lender.

Section 10.11 Waiver of Notice. Borrower shall not be entitled to any notices of any nature whatsoever from Lender except with respect to matters for which this Agreement or the other Loan Documents specifically and expressly provide for the giving of notice by Lender to Borrower and except with respect to matters for which Borrower is not, pursuant to applicable Legal Requirements, permitted to waive the giving of notice. Borrower hereby expressly waives the right to receive any notice from Lender with respect to any matter for which this Agreement or the other Loan Documents do not specifically and expressly provide for the giving of notice by Lender to Borrower.

Section 10.12 Remedies of Borrower. In the event that a claim or adjudication is made that Lender or its agents have acted unreasonably or unreasonably delayed acting in any case where by law or under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, Lender or such agent, as the case may be, has an obligation to act reasonably or promptly, Borrower agrees that neither Lender nor its agents shall be liable for any monetary damages, and Borrower’s sole remedies shall be limited to commencing an action seeking injunctive relief or declaratory judgment. The parties hereto agree that any action or proceeding to determine whether Lender has acted reasonably shall be determined by an action seeking declaratory judgment.

Section 10.13 Expenses; Indemnity. (a) Borrower covenants and agrees to pay or, if Borrower fails to pay, to reimburse, Lender within five (5) days of receipt of written notice from Lender for all reasonable out of pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) actually incurred by Lender in connection with (i) the preparation, negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and all the costs of furnishing all opinions by counsel for Borrower as more particularly set forth in the closing statement prepared in connection with the closing of the Loan; (ii) Borrower’s ongoing performance of and compliance with Borrower’s respective agreements and covenants contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents on its part to be performed or complied with after the Closing Date; (iii) intentionally deleted; (iv) the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and administration of any consents, amendments, waivers or other modifications to this

Any cost and expenses due and payable to Lender may be paid from any amounts in the Mezzanine Deposit Account.

(b) Intentionally deleted.

(c) Borrower shall, at its sole cost and expense, protect, defend, indemnify, release and hold harmless Lender and the Indemnified Parties from and against any and all Losses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs incurred in the investigation, defense, and settlement of Losses incurred in correcting any prohibited transaction or in the sale of a prohibited loan, and in obtaining any individual prohibited transaction exemption under ERISA, the Code, any state statute or other similar law that may be required, in Lender’s sole discretion) that Lender may incur, directly or indirectly, as a result of a default under Sections 4.1.8 or 5.2.8 hereof.

(d) Borrower covenants and agrees to pay for or, if Borrower fails to pay, to reimburse Lender for any reasonable out of pocket fees and expenses actually incurred by any Rating Agency in connection with any consent, approval, waiver or confirmation obtained from such Rating Agency pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document after a Securitization has occurred, and Lender shall be entitled to require payment of such fees and expenses as a condition precedent to the obtaining of any such consent, approval, waiver or confirmation.

Section 10.15 Offsets, Counterclaims and Defenses. Any assignee of Lender’s interest in and to this Agreement, the Note and the other Loan Documents shall take the same free and clear of all offsets, counterclaims or defenses which are unrelated to such documents which Borrower may otherwise have against any assignor of such documents, and no such unrelated counterclaim or defense shall be interposed or asserted by Borrower in any action or proceeding brought by any such assignee upon such documents and any such right to interpose

 

-121-


or assert any such unrelated offset, counterclaim or defense in any such action or proceeding is hereby expressly waived by Borrower.

Section 10.16 No Joint Venture or Partnership: No Third Party Beneficiaries. (a) Borrower and Lender intend that the relationships created hereunder and under the other Loan Documents be solely that of borrower and lender. Nothing herein or therein is intended to create a joint venture, partnership, tenancy in common, or joint tenancy relationship between Borrower and Lender.

(b) This Agreement and the other Loan Documents are solely for the benefit of Lender and Borrower and nothing contained in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to confer upon anyone other than Lender and Borrower any right to insist upon or to enforce the performance or observance of any of the obligations contained herein or therein. All conditions to the obligations of Lender to make the Loan hereunder are imposed solely and exclusively for the benefit of Lender and no other Person shall have standing to require satisfaction of such conditions in accordance with their terms or be entitled to assume that Lender will refuse to make the Loan in the absence of strict compliance with any or all thereof and no other Person shall under any circumstances be deemed to be a beneficiary of such conditions, any or all of which may be freely waived in whole or in part by Lender if, in Lender’s sole discretion, Lender deems it advisable or desirable to do so.

Section 10.17 Publicity. All news releases, publicity or advertising by Borrower or their Affiliates through any media intended to reach the general public which refers to the Loan Documents or the financing evidenced by the Loan Documents, to Lender, Morgan Stanley, or any of their Affiliates shall be subject to the prior written approval of Lender, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding the foregoing, disclosure required by any federal or State securities laws, rules or regulations, as determined by Borrower’s counsel, shall not be subject to the prior written approval of Lender.

Section 10.18 Waiver of Marshalling of Assets. To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, Borrower, for itself and its successors and assigns, waives all rights to a marshalling of the assets of Borrower, Borrower’s partners and others with interests in Borrower, and of the Collateral, or to a sale in inverse order of alienation in the event of foreclosure of all or part of the Pledge Agreement, and agrees not to assert any right under any laws pertaining to the marshalling of assets, the sale in inverse order of alienation, homestead exemption, the administration of estates of decedents, or any other matters whatsoever to defeat, reduce or affect the right of Lender under the Loan Documents to a sale of the Collateral for the collection of the Debt without any prior or different resort for collection or of the right of Lender to the payment of the Debt out of the net proceeds of the Collateral in preference to every other claimant whatsoever.

Section 10.19 Waiver of Counterclaim. Borrower hereby waives the right to assert a counterclaim, other than a compulsory counterclaim, in any action or proceeding brought against it by Lender or its agents.

Section 10.20 Conflict: Construction of Documents; Reliance. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and any of the other Loan Documents, the

 

-122-


provisions of this Agreement shall control. The parties hereto acknowledge that they were represented by competent counsel in connection with the negotiation, drafting and execution of the Loan Documents and that such Loan Documents shall not be subject to the principle of construing their meaning against the party which drafted same. Borrower acknowledges that, with respect to the Loan, Borrower shall rely solely on its own judgment and advisors in entering into the Loan without relying in any manner on any statements, representations or recommendations of Lender or any parent, subsidiary or Affiliate of Lender. Lender shall not be subject to any limitation whatsoever in the exercise of any rights or remedies available to it under any of the Loan Documents or any other agreements or instruments which govern the Loan by virtue of the ownership by it or any parent, subsidiary or Affiliate of Lender of any equity interest any of them may acquire in Borrower, and Borrower hereby irrevocably waives the right to raise any defense or take any action on the basis of the foregoing with respect to Lender’s exercise of any such rights or remedies. Borrower acknowledges that Lender engages in the business of real estate financings and other real estate transactions and investments which may be viewed as adverse to or competitive with the business of Borrower or its Affiliates.

Borrower hereby represents that it has dealt with no financial advisors, brokers, underwriters, placement agents, agents or finders other than Eastdil Secured L.L.C. (Eastdil) in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Lender harmless from and against any and all claims, liabilities, costs and expenses of any kind (including Lender’s attorneys’ fees and expenses) in any way relating to or arising from a claim by any Person (including, without limitation, Eastdil) that such Person acted on behalf of Borrower or Lender in connection with the transactions contemplated herein.

The provisions of this Section 10.21 shall survive the expiration and termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Debt.

Section 10.22 Prior Agreements. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents contain the entire agreement of the parties hereto and thereto in respect of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and all prior agreements among or between such parties, whether oral or written, between Borrower and/or its Affiliates and Lender are superseded by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

Section 10.23 Counterparts. Duplicate counterparts of any of the Loan Documents, other than the Note, may be executed and together will constitute a single instrument.

Section 10.24 Certain Additional Rights of Lender (VCOC). Notwithstanding anything which may be contained in this Agreement to the contrary, Lender shall have:

(a) to routinely consult with and advise Borrower’s management regarding the significant business activities and business and financial developments of Borrower, provided, however, that such consultations shall not include discussions of environmental compliance programs or disposal of hazardous substances. Consultation meetings shall be held

 

-123-


via teleconference and should occur on a regular basis at least every ninety (90) days, with Lender having the right to call special meetings via teleconference at any reasonable time with reasonable notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all decisions regarding the management and operations of Borrower shall be made by the management of Borrower in their sole discretion, subject to the term of this Agreement. Lender’s role shall be limited to that of an advisor or consultant.;

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

(c) the right, without restricting any other rights of Lender under this Agreement (including any similar right), to approve any acquisition by Borrower of any assets other than the Property and other than such assets as shall be used solely in connection with the management and operation of the Property, and

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

The rights described above may be exercised by any entity which owns and controls, directly or indirectly, substantially all of the interests in Lender.

Section 10.25 Direction of Mortgage Borrower or with Respect to the Property. Borrower and 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 (i) Borrower shall cause Mortgage Borrower to act or to refrain from acting in any manner or (ii) Borrower 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 the Property, or (iii) other similar effect, such clause or provision, in each case, is intended to mean, and shall be construed as meaning, that Borrower has undertaken to act and is obligated to act only in Borrower’s capacity as the sole member of Mortgage Borrower (which Mortgage Borrower, in turn, is the fee owner of the Property) but not directly with respect to Mortgage Borrower or the Property or in any other manner which would violate any of the covenants contained in Section 4.1.35 hereof or other similar covenants contained in Borrower’s Organizational Documents.

Section 10.26 Compliance with Mortgage Loan Documents. Borrower shall (or shall cause Mortgage Borrower to): (a) pay all principal, interest and other sums required to be paid by Mortgage Borrower under and pursuant to the provisions of the Mortgage Loan Documents; (b) diligently perform and observe all of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Mortgage Loan Documents on the part of any Mortgage Borrower to be performed and observed, unless such performance or observance shall be waived in writing by Mortgage Lender; (c) promptly notify Lender of the giving of any notice by a Mortgage Lender to Mortgage Borrower of any default by Mortgage Borrower in the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of the Mortgage Loan Documents on the part of Mortgage Borrower to be performed or observed and deliver to Lender a true copy of each such notice; (d) deliver a true, correct and complete copy of all material notices, demands, requests or

 

-124-


material correspondence (including electronically transmitted items) given or received by Mortgage Borrower or Guarantor to or from a Mortgage Lender or its agent; and (e) not enter into or be bound by any amendments to any Mortgage Loan Documents that are not approved by Lender or otherwise permitted hereunder, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Without limiting the foregoing, Borrower shall cause Mortgage Borrower to fund all reserves required to be funded pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Documents. In the event of a refinancing of a Mortgage Loan permitted by the terms of this Agreement, Borrower will cause all reserves on deposit with the applicable Mortgage Lender to be utilized by Mortgage Borrower to reduce the amount due and payable to the applicable Mortgage Lender or alternatively shall be remitted to Lender as a mandatory prepayment of the Loan.

Section 10.27 Mortgage Loan Defaults. (a) Without limiting the generality of the other provisions of this Agreement, and without waiving or releasing any Borrower from any of its obligations hereunder, if there shall occur any “Event of Default” under any of the Mortgage Loan Documents, Borrower hereby expressly agrees that Lender shall have the immediate right, without prior notice to Borrower, but shall be under no obligation: (i) to pay all or any part of the Mortgage Loan and any other sums that are then due and payable, and to perform any act or take any action on behalf of Borrower or Mortgage Borrower, to cause all of the terms, covenants and conditions of the applicable Mortgage Loan Documents on the part of Mortgage Borrower to be performed or observed thereunder to be promptly performed or observed; and (ii) to pay any other amounts and take any other action as Lender, in its sole and absolute discretion, shall deem advisable to protect or preserve the rights and interests of Lender in the Loan and/or the Collateral. All sums so paid and the costs and expenses incurred by Lender in exercising rights under this Section 10.27 (including attorneys’ fees) (i) shall constitute additional advances of the Loan to Borrower, (ii) shall increase the then unpaid Principal, (iii) 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 Lender, (iv) shall constitute a portion of the Debt, and (v) shall be secured by the applicable Pledge Agreements.

(b) Borrower hereby indemnifies Lender from and against all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, assessments, actions, or causes of action, judgments, suits, claims, demands, costs, expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ and other professional fees, whether or not suit is brought, and settlement costs) and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against Lender as a result of the foregoing actions. Lender shall have no obligation to Borrower or Mortgage Borrower or any other Person to make any such payment or performance. Borrower shall not impede, interfere with, hinder or delay, and shall not permit Mortgage Borrower to impede, interfere with, hinder or delay, any effort or action on the part of Lender to cure any “Event of Default” under the Mortgage Loan Documents or any other default of the nature described in subsection (a) above that gives Lender the right to cure the same, or to otherwise protect or preserve Lender’s interests in the Loan and the Collateral following any “Event of Default” under the Mortgage Loan Documents or any other default of the nature described in subsection (a) above that gives Lender the right to cure the same.

(c) During the continuance of any “Event of Default” by Mortgage Borrower under the Mortgage Loan Documents, such “Event of Default” shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder, without regard to any subsequent payment or performance of any such

 

-125-


obligations by Lender (unless the Mortgage Lender has waived such Event of Default). Mortgage Borrower hereby grants Lender and any person designated by Lender the right to enter upon the related Property at any time following the occurrence and during the continuance of any “Event of Default” under the applicable Mortgage Loan Documents or any other default of the nature described in subsection (a) above that gives Lender the right to cure the same, for the purpose of taking any such action or to appear in, defend or bring any action or proceeding to protect a Borrower’s or Mortgage Borrower‘s and/or Lender’s interest. Lender may take such action as Lender deems reasonably necessary or desirable to carry out the intents and purposes of this subsection (including communicating with Mortgage Lender with respect to any Mortgage Loan defaults), without prior notice to, or consent from, Borrower. Lender shall have no obligation to complete any cure or attempted cure undertaken or commenced by Lender.

(d) If Lender shall receive a copy of any notice of default under any of the Mortgage Loan Documents sent by a Mortgage Lender to Mortgage Borrower, such notice shall constitute full protection to Lender for any action taken or omitted to be taken by Lender, in good faith, in reliance thereon. As a material inducement to Lender’s making the Loan, Mortgage Borrower hereby absolutely and unconditionally releases and waives all claims against Lender arising out of Lender’s exercise of its rights and remedies provided in this Section 10.27, except for Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. In the event that Lender makes any payment in respect of a Mortgage Loan, Lender shall be subrogated to all of the rights of such Mortgage Lender under the applicable Mortgage Loan Documents against the Property, in addition to all other rights it may have under the Loan Documents.

Section 10.28 Mortgage Loan Estoppels. Borrower shall (or shall cause Mortgage Borrower to), from time to time, use reasonable efforts to obtain from Mortgage Lender such certificates of estoppel with respect to compliance by Mortgage Borrower with the terms of the as may be reasonably requested by Lender. In the event or to the extent that Mortgage Lender is not legally obligated to deliver such certificates of estoppel and is unwilling to deliver the same, or is legally obligated to deliver such certificates of estoppel but breaches such obligation, then Borrower shall not be in breach of this provision so long as Borrower furnishes to Lender an estoppel executed by Borrower and Mortgage Borrower expressly representing to Lender the information requested by Lender regarding compliance by Mortgage Borrower with the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents. Each Borrower hereby indemnifies Lender from and against all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, assessments, actions, or causes of action, judgments, suits, claims, demands, costs, expenses (including reasonably attorneys’ and other professional fees, whether or not suit is brought and settlement costs) and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against Lender based in whole or in part upon any fact, event, condition, or circumstances relating to the Mortgage Loan which was intentionally misrepresented in any material respect in, or which warrants disclosure and was intentionally omitted from such estoppel executed by Borrower and Mortgage Borrower.

Section 10.29 No Amendments to Mortgage Loan Documents. Without obtaining the prior written consent of Lender (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), Borrower shall not cause or permit Mortgage Borrower to (i) enter into any amendment or modification of any of the Mortgage Loan Documents (other than ministerial or de minimis modifications, which do not affect any of the economic terms therein or change any rights or

 

-126-


obligations of the parties thereunder) or (ii) grant to Mortgage Lender any consent or waiver. Borrower shall cause Mortgage Borrower to provide Lender with a copy of any amendment or modification to the Mortgage Loan Documents within five days after the execution thereof.

(b) The rights of Lender under this Agreement shall not be conditioned or contingent upon the pursuit by Lender of any right or remedy against Borrower or against any other Person which may be or become liable in respect of all or any part of the Debt or against any other security therefor, guarantee thereof or right of offset with respect thereto. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Lender shall not be liable for any failure to demand, collect or realize upon all or any part of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so, nor shall it be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of Borrower or any other Person or to take any other action whatsoever with regard to the Collateral or any part thereof.

(c) Upon satisfaction in full of the Debt and payment of all amounts owed on the Note, Lender’s rights under this Agreement shall terminate and Lender shall deliver to Borrower the certificates and stock powers executed by Borrower in connection herewith and Lender shall deliver to Pledgor UCC-3 termination statements or similar documents and agreements to terminate all of Lender’s rights under this Agreement and all other Loan Documents.

9. Remedies. If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, Lender may exercise, in addition to all other rights and remedies granted in this Agreement and in any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to the Debt:

(a) all rights and remedies of a secured party under the Code and such additional rights and remedies to which a secured party is entitled at law or in equity, including, without limitation, the right, to the maximum extent permitted by law, to exercise all voting, consensual and other powers of ownership pertaining to the Collateral as if Lender were the sole and absolute owner thereof (and Borrower agrees to take all such action as may be reasonably appropriate to give effect to such right);

(b) Lender may make any reasonable compromise or settlement deemed desirable with respect to any of the Collateral and may extend the time of payment, arrange for payment in installments, or otherwise modify the terms of, any of the Collateral;

(c) Lender in its discretion may, in its name or in the name of Borrower or otherwise, demand, sue for, collect, direct payment of or receive any money or property at any time payable or receivable on account of or in exchange for any of the Collateral, but shall be under no obligation to do so.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Lender, without demand of performance or other demand, presentment, protest, advertisement or notice of any kind (except any notice required by law referred to below or otherwise required hereby) to or upon Borrower, Mortgage Borrower or any other Person (all and each of which demands, presentments, protests, advertisements and notices, or other defenses, are hereby waived to the extent permitted under applicable law), may in such circumstances forthwith collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the Collateral, or any part thereof, and/or may forthwith sell, assign, give option or options to purchase or otherwise dispose of and deliver the Collateral or any part thereof (or contract to do any of the foregoing), in one or more parcels at public or private sale or sales, in the over-the-counter market, at any exchange, broker’s board or office of Lender or elsewhere upon such terms and conditions as it may deem advisable and at such prices as it may deem best in its sole discretion, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk. Lender shall have the right, without notice or publication, to adjourn any public or private sale or cause the same to be adjourned from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for such sale, and any such sale may be made at any time or place to which the same may be adjourned without further notice. Lender shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales, and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption of Borrower, which right or equity of redemption is hereby waived or released (but only to the extent permitted by applicable law). Lender shall apply any Proceeds from time to time held by it and the net proceeds of any such collection, recovery, receipt, appropriation, realization or sale, after deducting all reasonable costs and expenses of every kind incurred therein or incidental to the care or safekeeping of any of the Collateral or in any way relating to the Collateral or the rights of Lender hereunder, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, to the payment in whole or in part of the Debt, in such order as specified in Section 9-615 of the Code, and only after such application and after the payment by Lender of any other amount required by any provision of law, including, without limitation, Sections 9-610 and 9-615 of the

 

- 10 -


Code, need Lender account for the surplus, if any, to Borrower. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Borrower waives all claims, damages and demands it may acquire against Lender arising out of the exercise by Lender of any of its rights hereunder, except for any claims, damages and demands it may have against Lender arising from the willful misconduct, bad faith or gross negligence of Lender or its affiliates, or any agents or employees of the foregoing. If any notice of a proposed sale or other disposition of the Collateral shall be required by law, such notice shall be deemed reasonable and proper if given at least fifteen (15) days before such sale or other disposition.

(d) Notwithstanding anything else herein to the contrary, Lender shall be entitled to exercise its rights under Section 8 hereof to register the certificates representing the Pledged Interests in the name of Lender or its nominee (if not already so registered) or this Section 9(d) to collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the Collateral only upon the expiration of a period often (10) Business Days commencing on the date on which notice of such intention to exercise any of such rights shall have been given by Lender to Borrower in accordance with Section 19(e) hereof, which notice may, at Lender’s option, be included within any notice furnished by Lender to Borrower under Section 10.6 of the Loan Agreement.

(e) The rights, powers, privileges and remedies of Lender under this Agreement are cumulative and shall be in addition to all rights, powers, privileges and remedies available to Lender at law or in equity. All such rights, powers and remedies shall be cumulative and may be exercised successively or concurrently without impairing the rights of Lender hereunder.

10. Private Sales. (a) Borrower recognizes that Lender may be unable to effect a public sale of any or all of the Pledged Interests, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and applicable state securities laws or otherwise, and may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales thereof to a restricted group of purchasers which will be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire such securities for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that any such private sale may result in prices and other terms less favorable to Lender than if such sale were a public sale and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall not be deemed to have been made in a commercially unreasonable manner solely by virtue of being a private sale. Lender shall be under no obligation to delay a sale of any of the Pledged Interests for the period of time necessary to permit Mortgage Borrower or Borrower to register such securities for public sale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or under applicable state securities laws, even if Mortgage Borrower or Borrower would agree to do so.

(b) Borrower further shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to do or cause to be done all such other acts as may be reasonably necessary to make any sale or sales of all or any portion of the Pledged Interests pursuant to this Section 10 valid and binding and in compliance with any and all other requirements of applicable law. Borrower further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this Section 10 will cause irreparable injury to Lender, that Lender has no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this Section 10 shall be specifically enforceable against Borrower, and Borrower hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that no Event of Default has

 

- 11 -


occurred under the Loan Agreement, or any defense relating to Lender’s willful misconduct or bad faith.

(c) Lender shall not incur any liability as a result of the sale of any Collateral, or any part thereof, at any private sale conducted in a commercially reasonable manner, it being agreed that some or all of the Collateral is or may be of one or more types that threaten to decline speedily in value and that are not customarily sold in a recognized market. Borrower hereby waives any claims against Lender arising by reason of the fact that the price at which any of the Collateral may have been sold at such a private sale was less than the price which might have been obtained at a public sale or was less than the aggregate amount of the Debt, even if Lender accepts the first offer received and does not offer any Collateral to more than one offeree, provided that Lender has acted in a commercially reasonable manner in conducting such private sale.

11. Limitation on Duties Regarding Collateral. Lender’s sole duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical preservation of the Collateral in its possession, under Section 9-207 of the Code or otherwise, shall be to use reasonable care. Borrower hereby agrees that Lender shall be deemed to have used reasonable care with respect to Collateral in its possession if it deals with such Collateral in the same manner as Lender deals with similar securities and property for its own account. Neither Lender nor any of its directors, officers, employees or agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of Borrower or otherwise.

12. Financing Statements; Other Documents. On the date hereof, Borrower hereby authorizes Lender to file UCC-1 financing statements with respect to the Collateral. Borrower agrees to deliver any other document or instrument which Lender may reasonably request with respect to the Collateral for the purposes of obtaining or preserving the full benefits of this Agreement and of the rights and powers herein granted.

13. Attorney-in-Fact. Without limiting any rights or powers granted by this Agreement to Lender, Lender is hereby appointed, which appointment as attorney-in-fact is irrevocable and coupled with an interest, the attorney-in-fact of Borrower for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of this Agreement or the Loan Agreement and taking any action in connection therewith and executing any instruments which Lender may deem reasonably necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes hereof including, without limitation:

(a) to ask, demand, collect, sue for, recover, compromise, receive and give acquittance and receipts for moneys due and to become due under or in respect of any of the Collateral;

(b) to receive, endorse and collect any drafts or other instruments, documents and chattel paper in connection with clause (a) above;

(c) to file any claims or take any action or institute any proceedings that Lender may reasonably deem necessary or desirable for the collection of any of the Collateral or otherwise to enforce the rights of Lender, with respect to any of the Collateral; and

 

- 12 -


(d) to execute, in connection with the sale provided for in Section 9 or 10, any endorsement, assignments, or other instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to the Collateral, including, without limitation, to transfer or cause the transfer of the Collateral, or any part thereof, on the books of the Mortgage Borrower or other entity issuing such Collateral, to the name of Lender or any nominee.

Lender hereby agrees only to exercise the power of attorney powers set forth in the immediately preceding sentence only upon the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default.

If so requested by Lender, Borrower shall ratify and confirm any such sale or transfer by executing and delivering to Lender at Borrower’s expense all proper deeds, bills of sale, instruments of assignment, conveyance of transfer and releases as may reasonably be designated in any such request.

14. Intentionally Deleted.

15. Construction. All covenants, representations, terms and conditions contained in this Agreement applicable to Mortgage Borrower, Pledged Interests or any Mortgage Borrower Formation Documents shall be deemed to apply to Mortgage Borrower, Pledged Interests or the Mortgage Borrower Formation Documents, individually (and to the extent applicable to the type of Collateral in question). It shall constitute an Event of Default (as defined in the Loan Agreement) if any covenant, representation, term or condition contained in this Agreement applicable to Mortgage Borrower, Pledged Interests or Mortgage Borrower Formation Documents (and to the extent applicable to the type of Collateral in question) is breached (beyond any applicable notice and cure periods) with respect to Mortgage Borrower, Pledged Interests or Mortgage Borrower Formation Documents.

16. Non-Recourse. The provisions of Section 9.4 of the Loan Agreement are hereby incorporated by reference into this Agreement as to the liability of Borrower hereunder to the same extent and with the same force as if fully set forth herein.

17. Indemnity. Borrower agrees that the terms and provisions of Section 10.13 of the Loan Agreement are hereby incorporated by reference into this Agreement to the same extent and with the same force as if fully set forth herein.

18. Intentionally Deleted.

19. Miscellaneous.

(a) Severability. Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

(b) Headings. The headings used in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and are not to affect the construction hereof or be taken into consideration in the interpretation hereof.

(c) No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. Lender shall not by any act (except by a written instrument pursuant to Section 19(d)), delay, indulgence, omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any right or remedy hereunder or to have acquiesced in any default or in any breach of any of the terms and conditions hereof. No failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of Lender, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. A waiver by Lender of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which Lender would otherwise have on any future occasion. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided are cumulative, may be exercised singly or concurrently and are not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers or privileges provided by law.

(d) Waivers and Amendments; Successors and Assigns. None of the terms or provisions of this Agreement may be waived, amended, or otherwise modified except by a written instrument executed by the party against which enforcement of such waiver, amendment, or modification is sought. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of Borrower and the respective successors and assigns of Borrower and shall inure to the benefit of Lender and its successors and assigns; provided Borrower shall not have any right to assign its rights hereunder except in accordance with the Loan Agreement. The rights of Lender under this Agreement shall automatically be transferred to any permitted transferee to which Lender transfers the Note and Loan Agreement.

(e) Notices. Notices by Lender to Borrower to be effective shall be in writing (including by facsimile transmission), addressed or transmitted to Borrower at the address or facsimile number of Borrower set forth in the Loan Agreement, and shall be deemed to have been duly given or made in accordance with the terms and provisions of Section 10.6 of the Loan Agreement.

Section 4.4 Insufficiency of Funds. The insufficiency of funds on deposit in the Accounts shall not absolve Borrower of the obligation to make any payments, as and when due pursuant to this Agreement, the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and such obligations shall be separate and independent, and not conditioned on any event or circumstance whatsoever. Lender shall use commercially reasonable efforts to notify Borrower of any such insufficiency, but failure to give such notice shall not be a defense by Borrower against any enforcement of any remedies Lender may have under the Loan Documents.

Section 4.5 Sole Dominion and Control. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the Accounts are subject to the sole dominion, control and discretion of Lender, its authorized agents or designees, including Agent, subject to the terms hereof.

- 4 -


time for performance required by the Note, the Loan Agreement, the Pledge Agreement or any of the other Loan Document, (ii) any sale or transfer of all or part of the Collateral, (iii) except as provided herein, any exculpatory provision in the Note, the Loan Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents limiting Indemnitee’s recourse to the Collateral or to any other security for the Note, or limiting Indemnitee’s rights to a deficiency judgment against any Indemnitor, (iv) the accuracy or inaccuracy of the representations and warranties made by any Indemnitor under the Note, the Loan Agreement, the Pledge Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or herein, (v) the release of any Indemnitor or any other Person from performance or observance of any of the agreements, covenants, terms or conditions contained in any of the other Loan Documents by operation of law, Indemnitee’s voluntary act, or otherwise, (vi) the release or substitution in whole or in part of any security for the Note, or (vii) Indemnitee’s failure to file any UCC financing statements (or Indemnitee’s improper filing of any thereof) or to otherwise perfect, protect, secure or insure any security interest or lien given as security for the Note and, in any such case, whether with or without notice to Indemnitor and with or without consideration.

Section 4.02 ENFORCEMENT. Indemnified Parties may enforce the obligations of Indemnitor without first resorting to or exhausting any security or collateral or without first having recourse to the Note, the Loan Agreement, the Pledge Agreement, or any other Loan Documents or the Collateral, through UCC foreclosure proceedings or otherwise, provided, however, that nothing herein shall inhibit or prevent Indemnitee from suing on the Note, foreclosing, or exercising any power of sale under, the Pledge Agreement, or exercising any other rights and remedies thereunder. This Agreement is not collateral or security for the Debt of Borrower pursuant to the Loan, unless Indemnitee expressly elects in writing to make this Agreement additional collateral or security for the Debt of Borrower pursuant to the Loan, which Indemnitee is entitled to do in its sole discretion. It is not necessary for an Event of Default to have occurred pursuant to and as defined in the Loan Agreement for Indemnified Parties to exercise their rights pursuant to this Agreement. Notwithstanding any provision of the Security Instrument, the obligations pursuant to this Agreement are exceptions to any non-recourse or exculpation provision of the Loan Agreement; mdemnitor is fully and personally liable for such obligations, and their liability is not limited to the original or amortized principal balance of the Loan or the value of the Collateral.

- 5 -


obligations hereunder and the benefits of any statues of limitations of repose. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Indemnitor hereby agrees to postpone the exercise of any rights of subrogation with respect to any collateral securing the Loan until the Loan shall have been paid in full. No delay by any Indemnified Party in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver of any such privilege, power or right. Each Guarantor further waives all rights and defenses that such Guarantor may have because Borrower’s debt is secured by real property. This means, among other things:

(i) The Indemnified Parties may collect from such Principal without first foreclosing on any real or personal property collateral pledged by Borrower.

(ii) If any Indemnified Party forecloses on any Collateral pledged by Borrower:

(A) The amount of the Debt may be reduced only by the price for which that Collateral is sold at the foreclosure sale, even if the Collateral is worth more than the sale price.

(B) The Indemnified Parties may collect from such Principal even if such Indemnified Party, by foreclosing on the Collateral, has destroyed any right such Principal may have to collect from Borrower.

This is an unconditional and irrevocable waiver of any rights and defenses each Principal may have because Borrower’s Debt is secured by real property.

(b) INDEMNITOR HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE, RELATING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY TO THE LOAN EVIDENCED BY THE NOTE, THE APPLICATION FOR THE LOAN EVIDENCED BY THE NOTE, THE NOTE, THE SECURITY INSTRUMENT, THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER SECURITY DOCUMENTS OR ANY ACTS OR OMISSIONS OF ANY INDEMNIFIED PARTIES IN CONNECTION THEREWITH.

10. Intentionally Omitted.

11. Manager Not Entitled to Rents. Manager acknowledges and agrees that it is collecting and processing the Rents solely as the agent for Mortgage Borrower and Manager has no right to, or title in, the Rents.

7. This Assignment shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without reference to choice of law doctrine.

8. This Assignment shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of Assignor and Assignee and their respective successors and assigns. The rights of Assignee under this Assignment may be assigned to any holder of the Loan in its entirety and the Counterparty by its signature below consents to such assignment.

9. This Assignment may be amended or modified only by a written instrument signed by the parties hereto.

10. This Assignment may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original but all of which shall constitute one instrument.

11. The liability of Assignor under this Assignment is limited as set forth in Section 9.4 of the Loan Agreement and, accordingly, the provisions of Section 9.4 of the Loan Agreement are hereby incorporated by reference into this Assignment to the same extent and with the same force as if fully set forth herein (provided that such provisions shall only apply as between Assignor and Assignee and shall not affect Counterparty).

GUARANTY OF RECOURSE OBLIGATIONS OF BORROWER

(MEZZANINE A LOAN)

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, and to induce MORGAN STANLEY MORTGAGE CAPITAL HOLDINGS LLC, a New York limited liability company, having an address at 1221 Avenue of the Americas, New York, New York 10020 (together with its successors and assigns, Lender”), to lend to BROADWAY 500 WEST MONROE MEZZ I LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, having its principal place of business c/o Broadway Partners, 375 Park Avenue, Suite 2107, New York, New York 10152 (“Borrower”), the principal sum of up to SIXTY FIVE MILLION SIX HUNDRED THOUSAND AND 00/100 DOLLARS ($65,600,000.00) (the Loan”), or so much thereof as may be advanced pursuant to that certain Mezzanine A Loan Agreement, dated as of the date hereof, between Borrower and Lender (as the same may be amended, restated, replaced, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the Loan Agreement”) and evidenced by the Note (as defined in the Loan Agreement) and the other Loan Documents (as defined in the Loan Agreement). All capitalized words and phrases not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Loan Agreement.

The undersigned, BROADWAY PARTNERS PARALLEL FUND B III, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, having an address c/o Broadway Partners, 375 Park Avenue, Suite 2107, New York, New York 10152, BROADWAY PARTNERS PARALLEL FUND P III, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, having an address c/o Broadway Partners, 375 Park Avenue, Suite 2107, New York, New York 10152, and BROADWAY PARTNERS REAL ESTATE FUND III, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, having an address c/o Broadway Partners, 375 Park Avenue, Suite 2107, New York, New York 10152 (hereinafter individually and collectively referred to as Guarantor”) hereby absolutely and unconditionally, jointly and severally, guarantee to Lender the prompt and unconditional payment and performance of the Guaranteed Recourse Obligations of Borrower (hereinafter defined). Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally covenants and agrees that it is liable for the Guaranteed Obligations of Borrower as a primary obligor.

It is expressly understood and agreed that this is a continuing guaranty and that the obligations of Guarantor hereunder are and shall be absolute under any and all circumstances, without regard to the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Note, the Loan Agreement, or the other Loan Documents, a true copy of each of said documents Guarantor hereby acknowledges having received and reviewed.

The term “Debt” as used in this Guaranty of Recourse Obligations of Borrower (Mezzanine A Loan) (the Guaranty”) shall mean the principal sum evidenced by the Note and secured by the Security Instrument, or so much thereof as may be outstanding from time to time, together with interest thereon at the rate of interest specified in the Note and all other sums other

 

1


than principal or interest which may or shall become due and payable pursuant to the provisions of the Note, the Loan Agreement, or the other Loan Documents.

The term “Guaranteed Recourse Obligations of Borrower” as used in this Guaranty shall mean all obligations and liabilities of Borrower for which Borrower shall be personally liable pursuant to Sections 9.4(b) and (c) of the Loan Agreement (excluding all obligations and liabilities of Borrower under Section 9.4(b)(x)).

Any indebtedness of Borrower to Guarantor now or hereafter existing (including, but not limited to, any rights to subrogation Guarantor may have as a result of any payment by Guarantor under this Guaranty), together with any interest thereon, shall be, and such indebtedness is, hereby deferred, postponed and subordinated to the prior payment in full of the Debt. Until payment in full of the Debt (and including interest accruing on the Note after the commencement of a proceeding by or against Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code and the regulations adopted and promulgated pursuant thereto, which interest the parties agree shall remain a claim that is prior and superior to any claim of Guarantor notwithstanding any contrary practice, custom or ruling in cases under the Bankruptcy Code generally), Guarantor agrees not to accept any payment or satisfaction of any kind of indebtedness of Borrower to Guarantor and hereby assigns such indebtedness to Lender, including the right to file proof of claim and to vote thereon in connection with any such proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code, including the right to vote on any plan of reorganization. Further, if Guarantor shall comprise more than one person, firm or corporation, Guarantor agrees that until such payment in full of the Debt, (a) no one of them shall accept payment from the others by way of contribution on account of any payment made hereunder by such party to Lender, (b) no one of them will take any action to exercise or enforce any rights to such contribution, and (c) if any of Guarantor should receive any payment, satisfaction or security for any indebtedness of Borrower to any of Guarantor or for any contribution by the others of Guarantor for payment made hereunder by the recipient to Lender, the same shall be delivered to Lender in the form received, endorsed or assigned as may be appropriate for application on account of, or as security for, the Debt and until so delivered, shall be held in trust for Lender as security for the Debt.

Guarantor agrees that, within five (5) Business Days of demand by Lender, Guarantor will reimburse Lender, to the extent that such reimbursement is not made by Borrower, for all reasonable expenses (including reasonable counsel fees and disbursements) incurred by Lender in connection with the collection of the Guaranteed Recourse Obligations of Borrower or any portion thereof or with the enforcement of this Guaranty.

All moneys available to Lender for application in payment or reduction of the Debt may be applied by Lender in such manner and in such amounts and at such time or times and in such order and priority as Lender may see fit to the payment or reduction of such portion of the Debt as Lender may elect.

Guarantor hereby waives notice of the acceptance hereof, presentment, demand for payment, protest, notice of protest, or any and all notice of non-payment, non-performance or non-observance, or other proof, or notice or demand, whereby to charge Guarantor therefor.

 

2


Guarantor further agrees that the validity of this Guaranty and the obligations of Guarantor hereunder shall in no way be terminated, affected or impaired (a) by reason of the assertion by Lender of any rights or remedies which it may have under or with respect to either the Note, the Loan Agreement, or the other Loan Documents, against any person obligated thereunder or the Collateral covered under the Loan Agreement, or (b) by reason of any failure to file or record any of such instruments or to take or perfect any security intended to be provided thereby, or (c) by reason of the release of the Collateral covered under the Loan Agreement or other collateral for the Loan, or (d) by reason of Lender’s failure to exercise, or delay in exercising, any such right or remedy or any right or remedy Lender may have hereunder or in respect to this Guaranty, or (e) by reason of the commencement of a case under the Bankruptcy Code by or against any person obligated under the Note, the Loan Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or the death of any Guarantor, or (f) by reason of any payment made on the Debt or any other indebtedness arising under the Note, the Loan Agreement, or the other Loan Documents, whether made by Borrower or Guarantor or any other person, which is required to be refunded pursuant to any bankruptcy or insolvency law; it being understood that no payment so refunded shall be considered as a payment of any portion of the Debt, nor shall it have the effect of reducing the liability of Guarantor hereunder; or (g) by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of all or any part of this Guaranty, the Guaranteed Obligations of Borrower or any document or agreement executed in connection with the Guaranteed Obligations for any reason whatsoever, including, without limitation, due to the fact that (i) the act of creating the Guaranteed Obligations of Borrower or any part thereof is ultra vires, (ii) the officers or representatives executing any Loan Document or otherwise creating the Guaranteed Obligations or Borrower acted in excess of their authority, (iii) the Guaranteed Obligations of Borrower violate applicable usury laws, (iv) the Borrower has valid defenses, claims or offsets (whether at law, in equity or by agreement), other than the defense of actual payment or performance, which render the Guaranteed Obligations of Borrower wholly or partially uncollectible from Borrower, (v) the creation, performance or repayment of the Guaranteed Obligations of Borrower (or the execution, delivery and performance of any document or instrument representing part of the Guaranteed Obligations of Borrower or executed in connection with the Guaranteed Obligations of Borrower or given to secure the repayment of the Guaranteed Obligations of Borrower) is illegal, uncollectible or unenforceable, or (vi) the Note, the Pledge Agreement, the Loan Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents have been forged or otherwise are irregular or not genuine or authentic, it being agreed that Guarantor shall remain liable hereon regardless of whether Borrower or any other person be found not liable on the Guaranteed Obligations of Borrower or any part thereof for any reason. It is further understood, that if Borrower shall have taken advantage of, or be subject to the protection of, any provision in the Bankruptcy Code, the effect of which is to prevent or delay Lender from taking any remedial action against Borrower, including the exercise of any option Lender has to declare the Debt due and payable on the happening of any default or event by which under the terms of the Note, the Loan Agreement, or the other Loan Documents, the Debt shall become due and payable, Lender may, as against Guarantor, nevertheless, declare the Debt due and payable and enforce any or all of its rights and remedies against Guarantor provided for herein.

Guarantor further covenants that this Guaranty shall remain and continue in full force and effect as to any modification, extension or renewal of the Note, the Loan Agreement, or the other Loan Documents, that Lender shall not be under a duty to protect, secure or insure the Collateral covered under the Loan Agreement, and that other indulgences or forbearance may

 

3


be granted under any or all of such documents, all of which may be made, done or suffered without notice to, or further consent of, Guarantor.

As a further inducement to Lender to make the Loan and in consideration thereof, Guarantor further covenants and agrees (a) that in any action or proceeding brought by Lender against Guarantor on this Guaranty, Guarantor shall and does hereby waive trial by jury, (b) that the Supreme Court of the State of New York for the County of New York, or, in a case involving diversity of citizenship, the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, shall have exclusive jurisdiction of any such action or proceeding brought by Guarantor and non-exclusive jurisdiction of any proceeding brought by Lender, and (c) that service of any summons and complaint or other process in any such action or proceeding may be made by registered or certified mail directed to Guarantor at Guarantor’s address set forth above, Guarantor waiving personal service thereof. Nothing in this Guaranty will be deemed to preclude Lender from bringing an action or proceeding with respect hereto in any other jurisdiction.

This is a guaranty of payment and performance and not of collection and upon any default of Borrower under the Note, the Loan Agreement, or the other Loan Documents (beyond the expiration of any applicable grace periods), Lender may, at its option, proceed directly and at once, without notice, against Guarantor to collect and recover the full amount of the liability hereunder or any portion thereof, without proceeding against Borrower or any other person, or foreclosing upon, selling, or otherwise disposing of or collecting or applying against any of the mortgaged property or other collateral for the Loan. Guarantor hereby waives the pleading of any statute of limitations as a defense to the obligation hereunder.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Guarantor hereby expressly waives presentment for payment, demand of payment, protest or notice of non-payment or failure to perform or observe, or other proof, or notice or demand. Guarantor further waives all rights and defenses that guarantor may have because Borrower’s debt is secured by real property. This means, among other things:

(a) Lender may collect from Guarantor without first foreclosing on any real or personal property collateral pledged by Borrower.

(b) If Lender forecloses on any Collateral pledged by Borrower:

(i) The amount of the Debt may be reduced only by the price for which that Collateral is sold at the foreclosure sale, even if the Collateral is worth more than the sale price.

(ii) Lender may collect from Guarantor even if Lender, by foreclosing on the Collateral, has destroyed any right Guarantor may have to collect from Borrower.

This is an unconditional and irrevocable waiver of any rights and defenses Guarantor may have because Borrower’s Debt is secured by the Collateral. Guarantor further waives all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies by Lender.

 

4


Each reference herein to Lender shall be deemed to include its successors and assigns, to whose favor the provisions of this Guaranty shall also inure. Each reference herein to Guarantor shall be deemed to include the heirs, executors, administrators, legal representatives, successors and assigns of Guarantor, all of whom shall be bound by the provisions of this Guaranty.

If any party hereto shall be a partnership, the agreements and obligations on the part of Guarantor herein contained shall remain in force and application notwithstanding any changes in the individuals composing the partnership and the term “Guarantor” shall include any altered or successive partnerships but the predecessor partnerships and their partners shall not thereby be released from any obligations or liability hereunder.

Guarantor (and its representative, executing below, if any) has full power, authority and legal right to execute this Guaranty and to perform all its obligations under this Guaranty.

All understandings, representations and agreements heretofore had with respect to this Guaranty are merged into this Guaranty which alone fully and completely expresses the agreement of Guarantor and Lender.

This Guaranty may be executed in one or more counterparts by some or all of the parties hereto, each of which counterparts shall be an original and all of which together shall constitute a single agreement of Guaranty. The failure of any party hereto to execute this Guaranty, or any counterpart hereof, shall not relieve the other signatories from their obligations hereunder.

This Guaranty may not be modified, amended, waived, extended, changed, discharged or terminated orally or by any act or failure to act on the part of Lender or Borrower, but only by an agreement in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of any modification, amendment, waiver, extension, change, discharge or termination is sought.

This Guaranty shall be governed, construed and interpreted as to validity, enforcement and in all other respects, in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.

This Guaranty shall automatically terminate and the obligations of each Guarantor under this Guaranty (with the exception of those obligations expressly stated in this Guaranty and the other Loan Documents to survive the payment of the Debt in full) shall be of no further force and effect from and after the full and complete performance of all obligations under the Loan Documents and the payment of the Debt in full in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the payment in full to Lender of any amounts owed to Lender pursuant to the terms of this Guaranty.
