Borrower hereby represents and warrants to Lenders the following with respect to each Ground Lease:

(b)  No Liens.  Except for the Permitted Exceptions, Borrower’s interest in each Ground Lease is not subject to any Liens or encumbrances superior to, or of equal priority with, the Mortgage other than the ground lessor’s related fee interest.
 
(c)  Ground Lease Assignable.  Borrower’s interest in each Ground Lease is assignable to Agent upon notice to, but without the consent of, the ground lessor (or, if any such consent is required, it has been obtained prior to the Closing Date).  Each Ground Lease is further assignable (in its entirety) by Agent upon notice to, but without the consent of, the ground lessor.
 
(d)  Default.  As of the date hereof, each Ground Lease is in full force and effect and no default has occurred under either Ground Lease and there is no existing condition which, but for the passage of time or the giving of notice, could result in a default under the terms of either Ground Lease.
 
(e)  Notice.  Each Ground Lease requires, after notice of and a copy of the Mortgage are delivered to the ground lessor, the ground lessor to give notice of any default by Borrower to Agent.  Each Ground Lease, or estoppel letters received by Lenders from the ground lessor, further provides that notice of termination given under either Ground Lease is not effective against Lenders unless a copy of the notice has been delivered to Agent in the manner described in each Ground Lease.
 
(f)  Cure.  Agent is permitted the opportunity (including, in the case of a non-monetary default, sufficient time to gain possession of the interest of Borrower under each Ground Lease) to cure any default under such Ground Lease, which is curable after the receipt of notice of any of the default before the ground lessor thereunder may terminate either Ground Lease.
 
(g)  Term.  Each Ground Lease has a term which extends not less than twenty-five (25) years beyond the Maturity Date.
 
(h)  New Lease.  Each Ground Lease requires the ground lessor to enter into a new lease with Lenders upon termination of such Ground Lease by reason of the default by the Tenant thereunder.
 
(i)  Insurance Proceeds.  Under the terms of each Ground Lease and the Mortgage, taken together, any related insurance and condemnation proceeds will be applied either to the repair or restoration of all or part of the Project, with Agent having the right to hold and disburse the proceeds as the repair or restoration progresses, or to the payment of the outstanding principal balance of the Loan together with any accrued interest thereon.
 
(j)  Subleasing.  Neither Ground Lease imposes any restrictions on subleasing except subleasing the entire leased premises.
 
3.39  Assignment of Leases.
 
The Assignment of Leases creates a valid assignment of, or a valid security interest in, certain rights under the Leases, subject only to a license granted to Borrower to exercise certain rights and to perform certain obligations of the lessor under the Leases, including the right to operate the Project.  No Person other than Agent and Lenders has any interest in or assignment of the Leases or any portion of the Rents due and payable or to become due and payable thereunder.

ARTICLE 5
 

 
INTEREST PAYMENTS AND OTHER PAYMENTS
 
5.1  Interest Rate.
 
(a)  The Loan will bear interest at the Applicable Rate, unless the Default Rate is applicable.  The Base Rate shall be the “Applicable Rate” except with respect to portions of the Loan as to which a LIBOR Rate Option is then in effect as to which the Adjusted LIBOR Rate shall be the Applicable Rate.  Borrower shall pay interest in arrears on each Payment Date in the amount of all interest accrued and unpaid from and including the immediately preceding Payment Date to and including the day immediately preceding the Payment Date on which such payment is to be made.  All payments (whether of principal or of interest) shall be made to Agent not later than 12:00 noon New York time on the date due, and shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America by wire transfer in federal or other immediately available funds to an account designated by Agent.  All payments (whether of principal or of interest) shall be deemed credited to Borrower’s account on a Business Day only if received by 12:00 noon New York time on that Business Day; otherwise, such payment shall be deemed received on the next Business Day.
 
(b)  Provided that no Event of Default exists, Borrower shall have the option to elect from time to time in the manner and subject to the conditions hereinafter set forth to apply, as the Applicable Rate for all or any portion of the Loan, an Adjusted LIBOR Rate (the “LIBOR Rate Option”).
 
(c)  The only manner in which Borrower may exercise the LIBOR Rate Option is by giving Agent irrevocable notice (which may be (A) verbal notice provided that Borrower delivers to Agent facsimile or electronic confirmation within twenty-four (24) hours or (B) electronic mail notice) of such exercise not later than 11:00 a.m. New York time on the third Business Day prior to the proposed commencement of the relevant LIBOR Rate Interest Period (“LIBOR Notice Time”), which written notice shall specify:  (i) the portion of the Loan with respect to which Borrower is electing the LIBOR Rate Option, (ii) the Business Day upon which the applicable LIBOR Rate Interest Period is to commence and (iii) the duration of the applicable LIBOR Rate Interest Period.  Agent shall confirm the Adjusted LIBOR Rate to Borrower and Lenders by facsimile transmission or email by the next Business Day.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as no Event of Default exists, the Applicable Rate for any portion of the Loan with respect to which Borrower has elected the LIBOR Rate Option shall automatically be continued at the one month Adjusted LIBOR Rate as of the Roll Over Date applicable thereto (unless Borrower otherwise notifies Agent in writing by the LIBOR Notice Time).  The LIBOR Rate Option may be exercised by Borrower only with respect to all or any portion of the Loan in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement, and then only if such portion of the Loan is equal to or in excess of $1,000,000.
 
(d)  If Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon Borrower, absent manifest error) (i) that Dollar deposits in an amount approximately equal to the portion of the Loan for which Borrower has exercised the LIBOR Rate Option for the designated LIBOR Rate Interest Period are not generally available at such time in the London interbank market for deposits in Dollars, (ii) that the rate at which such deposits are being offered will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to Lenders of maintaining a LIBOR Rate on such portion of the Loan or of funding the same for such LIBOR Rate Interest Period due to circumstances affecting the London interbank market generally, (iii) that reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining a LIBOR Rate, or (iv) that an Adjusted LIBOR Rate would be in excess of the maximum interest rate which Borrower may by law pay, then, in any such event, Agent shall so notify Borrower and all portions of the Loan bearing interest at an Adjusted LIBOR Rate that are so affected shall, as of the date of such notification with respect to an event described in clause (ii) or (iv) above, or as of the expiration of the applicable LIBOR Rate Interest Period with respect to an event described in clause (i) or (iii) above, bear interest at the Base Rate until such time as the situations described above are no longer in effect or can be avoided by Borrower exercising a LIBOR Rate Option for a different LIBOR Rate Interest Period.  Once such situation is no longer in effect, Borrower may again exercise the LIBOR Rate Option (and Agent shall endeavor to so promptly notify Borrower).

COSTS OF MAINTAINING LOAN
 
6.1  Increased Costs and Capital Adequacy.
 
(a)  Borrower recognizes that the cost to each Lender of maintaining the Loan or any portion thereof may fluctuate and, Borrower agrees to pay each Lender additional amounts to compensate such Lender for any increase in their actual costs incurred in maintaining the Loan or any portion thereof outstanding or for the reduction of any amounts received or receivable from Borrower as a result of:
 
(i)  any change after the date hereof in any applicable Law, regulation or treaty, (or in the interpretation or administration thereof), or by any domestic or foreign court, (A) changing the basis of taxation of payments under this Agreement to such Lender (other than taxes imposed on all or any portion of the overall net income or receipts of such Lender), or (B) imposing, modifying or applying any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds for loans by such Lender (which includes the Loan or any applicable portion thereof), or (C) imposing on such Lender, or the London interbank market generally, any other condition affecting the Loan; provided that the result of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender of maintaining the Loan or any portion thereof or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable from Borrower by such Lender under the Loan Documents (whether principal, interest or otherwise); or
 
(ii)  the maintenance by such Lender of reserves in accordance with reserve requirements promulgated by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System of the United States with respect to “Eurocurrency Liabilities” of a similar term to that of the applicable portion of the Loan (without duplication for reserves already accounted for in the calculation of a LIBOR Rate pursuant to the terms hereof).
 
(b)  If the application of any Law, rule, regulation or guideline adopted or arising out of the July, 1988 (or any subsequent) report of the Basle Committee on Banking Regulations and Supervisory Practices entitled “International Convergence of Capital Measurement and Capital Standards”, or the adoption after the date hereof of any other Law, rule, regulation or guideline regarding capital adequacy, or any change after the date hereof in any of the foregoing, or in the interpretation or administration thereof by any domestic or foreign Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by a Lender or any Affiliate of a Lender, with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency, has the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital to a level below that which such Lender would have achieved but for such application, adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration the policies of such Lender with respect to capital adequacy), then, from time to time Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amounts as will compensate such Lender for such reduction with respect to any portion of the Loan outstanding; provided, however, that to the extent that any such capital adequacy requirement is already in effect on the date hereof, or to the extent any such capital adequacy requirement has already been specifically promulgated as of the date hereof with a future scheduled effective date, the parties intend that the interest rate payable as set forth herein will compensate such Lender for such requirement and Borrower shall have no obligation to compensate such Lender for any such already existing requirement.
 
(c)  Any amount payable by Borrower under subsection (a) or subsection (b) of this Section 6.1 shall be paid within five (5) days of receipt by Borrower of a certificate signed by an authorized officer of a Lender setting forth the amount due and the basis for the determination of such amount, which statement shall be conclusive and binding upon Borrower, absent manifest error.  Failure on the part of Agent or any Lender to demand payment from Borrower for any such amount attributable to any particular period shall not constitute a waiver of a Lender’s right to demand payment of such amount for any subsequent or prior period.  Such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to deliver to Borrower prompt notice of any event described in subsection (a) or (b) above, of the amount of the reserve and capital adequacy payments resulting therefrom and the reasons therefor and of the basis of calculation of such amount; provided, however, that any failure by a Lender to so notify Borrower shall not affect Borrower’s obligation to pay the reserve or capital adequacy payment resulting therefrom.
 
(d)  If any Lender (an “Affected Lender”) makes demand upon Borrower for (or if Borrower is otherwise required to pay) additional costs pursuant to this Section 6.1, Borrower may, within ninety (90) days of receipt of such demand, give notice (a “Replacement Notice”) to Agent (which will promptly forward a copy of such notice to each Lender) of Borrower’s intention (x) to assign in full the Affected Lender’s Note and (y) to replace the Affected Lender with another financial institution (the “Replacement Lender”) designated in such Replacement Notice which agrees to purchase the Affected Lender’s Note.
 
In the event Borrower opts to give the notice provided for above, and if (i) Agent shall, within thirty (30) days of its receipt of the Replacement Notice, notify Borrower and each Lender in writing that the Replacement Lender is reasonably satisfactory to Agent and (ii) the Affected Lender shall not, prior to the end of such thirty (30) day period, agree to waive the payment of the additional costs in question, then the Affected Lender shall, so long as no Event of Default shall exist, assign its Note and all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to the Replacement Lender, and the Replacement Lender shall assume all of the Affected Lender’s rights and obligations, pursuant to an agreement, substantially in the form of an Assignment and Assumption Agreement, executed by the Affected Lender and the Replacement Lender.  In connection with such assignment and assumption, the Replacement Lender shall pay to the Affected Lender an amount equal to the outstanding principal amount under the Affected Lender’s Note plus all interest accrued thereon, plus all other amounts, if any (other than the additional costs in question), then due and payable to the Affected Lender; provided, however, that prior to or simultaneously with any such assignment and assumption, Borrower shall have paid to such Affected Lender all amounts properly demanded and unreimbursed under this Section 6.1.  Upon the effective date of such assignment and assumption, the Affected Lender shall be released from its obligations hereunder, and no further consent or action by any party shall be required.  Upon the consummation of any assignment pursuant to this Section, a substitute Note shall be issued to the Replacement Lender by Borrower, in exchange for the return of the Affected Lender’s Note.
 
(e)  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 6.1, no Lender shall be entitled to any compensation pursuant to this Section 6.1 relating to any period more than ninety (90) days prior to the date notice thereof is given to Borrower by Agent or such Lender.
 
6.2  Borrower Withholding.
 
If by reason of a change in any applicable Laws occurring after the date hereof, Borrower is required by Law to make any deduction or withholding in respect of any taxes (other than taxes imposed on or measured by the net income of any Lender or any franchise tax imposed on any Lender), duties or other charges from any payment due under the Notes, the sum due from Borrower in respect of such payment shall be increased to the extent necessary to ensure that, after the making of such deduction or withholding, such Lender receives and retains a net sum equal to the sum which it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been required to be made.  If any Lender fails to deliver a Form W-8 BEN or Form W-8 ECI as required under Section 21.5(c) hereof and such failure is not due to a change in Law, regulation or governmental directive, Lenders and Borrower agree that Lenders and each Lender individually shall not be in default hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents and that the sole result of such failure shall be that the preceding sentence shall not apply to any payment hereunder with respect to which Borrower is required by Law to make any deduction or withholding in respect of any taxes, duties or charges (i.e., until Borrower receives such Form W-8 BEN or Form W-8 ECI,  Borrower shall not be required to increase the amount of such payment as provided above in order to compensate such Lender or Lenders for such deduction or withholding).  Borrower shall not be relieved of its obligation to increase the amount of such payment as provided above in order to compensate such Lender or Lenders for such deduction or withholding if the failure by such Lender or Lenders to deliver a Form W-8 BEN or Form W-8 ECI is due to a change in Law, regulation or governmental directive.  Borrower shall promptly deliver to Agent receipts, certificates or other proof evidencing the amounts (if any) paid or payable in respect of any such deduction or withholding.

Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Lockbox Event and until the occurrence of the applicable Lockbox Termination Event, if any, Borrower shall pay to Agent (by depositing the required funds into the Lockbox Account) on each Payment Date (a) a constant monthly amount that Agent estimates, based on the most recent tax bill, will be required in order to accumulate with Agent sufficient funds to pay all such Taxes at least thirty (30) days prior to the imposition of any interest, charges or expenses for the non-payment thereof, and (b) a constant monthly amount that Agent estimates, based on the most recent bill, will be required in order to accumulate with Agent sufficient funds to pay all Insurance Premiums at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the Policies (said amounts in (a) and (b) above hereinafter called the “Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund”) and the account in which such funds are held shall hereinafter be referred to as Borrower’s “Tax and Insurance Account.”  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Project insurance is part of a blanket policy reasonably acceptable to Agent, then so long as no Event of Default exists, no deposits into the Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund shall be required on account of insurance premiums.  The Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund, payable pursuant to this Agreement and the Notes, shall be paid by Borrower to Agent on each Payment Date.  Agent shall apply the Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund to payments of Taxes and Insurance Premiums required to be made by Borrower pursuant to Section 14.1 and Section 14.2 hereof and under the Mortgage, subject to Borrower’s right to contest Taxes in accordance with Section 14.2.  In making any payment relating to the Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund, Agent may do so according to any bill, statement or estimate procured from the appropriate public office (with respect to Taxes) or insurer or agent (with respect to Insurance Premiums), without inquiry into the accuracy of such bill, statement or estimate or into the validity of any tax, assessment, sale, forfeiture, tax lien or title or claim thereof, subject to Borrower’s right to contest in accordance with Section 14.2.  If the amount of the Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund shall exceed the amounts due for Taxes and Insurance Premiums pursuant to Section 14.1 or Section 14.2, as applicable, such excess shall be credited against future payments to be made to the Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund.  If at any time Agent reasonably determines that the Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund is not or will not be sufficient to pay Taxes and Insurance Premiums by the dates set forth in (a) and (b) above, Agent shall notify Borrower of such determination and Borrower shall increase its monthly payments to Agent by the amount that Agent reasonably estimates is sufficient to make up the deficiency at least thirty (30) days prior to delinquency of the Taxes and/or thirty (30) days prior to expiration of the Policies, as the case may be.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, it is the intention of the parties that Agent shall not pay Taxes for any tax parcel with respect to which an Tenant is responsible for direct payment and makes such payment.  Accordingly, prior to the payment of any Taxes, Agent shall provide Borrower with a list of the parcels for which Agent proposes to pay Taxes, and (y) if Borrower does not notify Agent in writing within five (5) Business Days thereafter that an Tenant is responsible for direct payment of Taxes for a parcel or parcels listed by Agent, then Agent shall pay such Taxes from amounts on deposit in the Tax and Insurance Account, if any and (z) if Borrower notifies Agent in writing within five (5) Business Days thereafter that an Tenant is responsible for direct payment of Taxes for one or more parcels listed by Agent, then Agent shall not pay the Taxes on such parcel or parcels from amounts on deposit in the Tax and Insurance Account; provided, however, nothing contained in this Section 10.2 shall be construed to relieve Borrower of its obligation to pay, or cause to be paid all Taxes as set forth in Section 14.2 hereof.
 
10.3  Leasing Reserve.
 
Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Lockbox Event and until the occurrence of the applicable Lockbox Termination Event, if any, Borrower shall pay to Agent (by depositing the required funds into the Lockbox Account) on each subsequent Payment Date the sum of $51,000 (the “Monthly Leasing Deposit”), until such time as the balance in the Leasing Reserve Account equals $1,224,000 (the “Minimum Leasing Reserve Balance”).  Thereafter, if at any time there is a draw causing the Leasing Reserve Account to contain less than the Minimum Leasing Reserve Balance (whether on account of expenditures approved by Agent or otherwise), Borrower shall continue to pay Agent for deposit into the Leasing Reserve Account, the Monthly Leasing Deposit until the balance in the Leasing Reserve Account again equals the Minimum Leasing Reserve Balance.  Whenever the balance in the Leasing Reserve Account again equals the Minimum Leasing Reserve Balance, Borrower may suspend making monthly payments into the Leasing Reserve Account.  Amounts so deposited shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Leasing Reserve Fund” and the account to which such amounts are held shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Leasing Reserve Account.”  Agent shall make disbursements from the Leasing Reserve Fund for tenant improvement and leasing commission obligations incurred by Borrower.  Agent shall make disbursements as requested by Borrower on a monthly basis upon delivery by Borrower of an Officer’s Certificate certifying the amount of expenses incurred for which reimbursement is requested.  In no event shall Agent be obligated to disburse funds from the Leasing Reserve Account if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.  Ground Rent Funds.
 
10.4  Ground Rent Funds.
 
(a)  Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Lockbox Event and until the occurrence of the applicable Lockbox Termination Event, if any, Borrower shall deposit with Agent, on each Payment Date, an amount (the “Monthly Ground Rent Deposit”) equal to the Ground Rent that will be payable under the Ground Lease for the succeeding month (such amounts so deposited shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Ground Rent Funds”).
 
(b)  Agent shall apply the Ground Rent Funds to payments of Ground Rent.  In making any payment relating to Ground Rent, Agent may do so according to any bill or statement given by the Ground Lessor without inquiry into the accuracy of such bill or statement or into the validity of any rent, additional rent or other charge thereof.  If the amount of the Ground Rent Funds shall exceed the amounts due for Ground Rent, Agent shall, in its sole discretion, either (a) return any excess to Borrower or (b) credit such excess against the next payments to be made to the Ground Rent Funds.
 
10.5  Pledge and Security Interest; Additional Provisions.
 
(a)  Borrower hereby pledges to Agent, and grants a security interest in, any and all monies now or hereafter deposited in the Reserve Funds as additional security for the payment of the Loan.  Borrower shall not, without obtaining the prior written consent of Agent, further pledge, assign or grant any security interest in the Reserve Funds or permit any lien or encumbrance to be attached thereto, or any levy to be made thereon, or any UCC-1 Financing Statements (except those naming Agent as the secured party) to be filed with respect thereto.  All cash amounts deposited into the Reserve Funds shall be held in Agent’s name in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Cash Management Agreement and shall not be commingled with other funds.  All investment earnings on the Reserve Funds shall be (a) added to and become part of the applicable Reserve Fund, (b) taxed as income of Borrower, (c) for the benefit of Borrower, subject to Agent’s rights pursuant to this Agreement, and (d) provided that no Default or Event of Default has occurred, remitted to Borrower in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.  Agent shall not be responsible for any losses resulting from the investment of the cash deposits in the Reserve Funds or for obtaining any specific level or percentage of earnings on such investment.  Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Agent may apply any amounts then present in the Reserve Funds to the payment of amounts due and payable under the Loan (including pursuant to an acceleration of the Loan) in any order in its sole discretion.  Until expended or applied as above provided, the Reserve Funds shall constitute additional security for the Loan.  Any amounts on deposit in the Reserve Funds (other than the Tax and Insurance Fund) in excess of Borrower’s obligations or in excess of Borrower’s requested disbursement shall remain on deposit in the applicable Reserve Fund.
 
(b)  Any amount remaining in the Reserve Funds after the Loan has been paid in full shall be promptly returned to Borrower.  In addition, Borrower’s obligations to make payments to the Reserve Funds shall be qualified as provided in Section 9.2 hereof.
 
(c)  Borrower shall indemnify Agent and hold Agent harmless from and against any and all actions, suits, claims, demands, liabilities, losses, damages, obligations and costs and expenses (including litigation costs and reasonable attorneys fees and expenses) arising from or in any way connected with the Reserve Funds or the performance of the obligations for which the Reserve Funds were established, except for the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Agent.  Borrower shall assign to Agent 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; provided, however, that Agent may not pursue any such right or claim unless an Event of Default has occurred and remains uncured.

14.1  Existence; Compliance with Laws; Insurance.
 
Borrower shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve, renew and keep in full force and effect its existence, rights, licenses, permits and franchises necessary to comply with all Laws applicable to it and the Project.  Borrower and the Project shall at all times during the term of the Loan comply with all applicable Laws in all material respects.  There shall never be committed by Borrower, and Borrower shall not knowingly permit any other Person in occupancy of or involved with the operation or use of the Project to commit, any act or omission affording the federal government or any state or local government the right of forfeiture as against the Project or any part thereof or any monies paid in performance of Borrower’s obligations under any of the Loan Documents.  Borrower hereby covenants and agrees not to commit, knowingly permit or suffer to exist any act or omission affording such right of forfeiture.  Borrower shall at all times maintain, preserve and protect all franchises and trade names and preserve all the remainder of its property used or useful in the conduct of its business and shall keep the Project in good working order and repair, and from time to time make, or cause to be made, all reasonably necessary repairs, renewals, replacements, betterments and improvements thereto, all as more fully provided in the Mortgage.  Borrower shall keep the Project insured at all times by financially sound and reputable insurers, to such extent and against such risks, and maintain liability and such other insurance, as is more fully provided in Article 16 of this Agreement.
 
14.2  Taxes and Other Charges.
 
Borrower shall pay all Taxes now or hereafter levied or assessed or imposed against the Project or any part thereof prior to the imposition of any interest, charges or expenses for the non-payment thereof and shall pay all Other Charges on or before the date they are due.  Borrower will deliver to Agent receipts for payment or other evidence satisfactory to Agent that the Taxes have been so paid or are not then delinquent within ten (10) days after payment thereof (provided, however, that Borrower is not required to furnish such receipts for payment of Taxes in the event that such Taxes have been paid by Agent pursuant to Section 10.2 above).  Upon request, Borrower shall deliver to Agent evidence satisfactory to Agent that the Other Charges have been so paid and are not delinquent.  Borrower shall not suffer and shall promptly cause to be paid, discharged or removed (or shall contest as otherwise provided in the Mortgage) any Lien or charge whatsoever which may be or become a Lien or charge against the Project other than a Permitted Exception, and shall promptly pay for all utility services provided to the Project.  After prior written notice to Agent, Borrower, at its own expense, may contest by appropriate proceeding, promptly initiated and conducted in good faith and with due diligence, the amount or validity or application in whole or in part of any Taxes, provided that (a) no Event of Default has occurred and remains uncured; (b) Borrower is permitted to do so under the provisions of any mortgage or deed of trust superior in lien to the Mortgage; (c) such proceeding shall not constitute a default under the provisions of any other instrument to which Borrower is subject and such proceeding shall be conducted in accordance with all applicable statutes, laws and ordinances; (d) during the period of such contest, neither the Project nor any part thereof or interest therein will be in danger of being sold, forfeited, terminated, cancelled or lost; (e) Borrower shall promptly upon final determination thereof pay the amount of any such Taxes, together with all costs, interest and penalties which may be payable in connection therewith; (f) such proceeding shall suspend the collection of such contested Taxes from the Project; and (g) Borrower shall furnish such security as may be required in the proceeding, or establish adequate cash reserves as may be reasonably requested by Agent, to insure the payment of any such Taxes, together with all interest and penalties thereon.  Upon final determination, if not previously and completely satisfied by Borrower, Agent may pay over any such cash deposit or part thereof held by Agent to the claimant entitled thereto.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 14.2, Borrower shall not be required to provide prior written notice to Agent of any contest of Taxes provided that Borrower pays the full amount of such Tax which is due to the proper Governmental Authority prior to its initiation of any contest and provided further that Borrower satisfies all of the conditions contained above other than in subclause (g) and has complied with all requirements of the appropriate Governmental Authority with respect to the payment of such Taxes and the posting of security thereof, if any.
 
14.3  Litigation.
 
Borrower shall give prompt written notice to Agent of any litigation or governmental proceedings pending or threatened in writing against Borrower which is reasonably likely to materially adversely affect Borrower’s condition (financial or otherwise) or business or the Project.  Borrower shall indemnify each Lender, Agent and their respective officers, directors, employees and consultants (each, an “Indemnified Party”) and defend and hold each Indemnified Party harmless from and against all claims, injury, damage, loss and liability, cost and expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses) of any and every kind to any persons or property by reason of (i) the operation or maintenance of the Project; (ii) any breach of representation or warranty, default or Event of Default hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents; (iii) any other matter arising in connection with the Loan, Borrower or the Project; (iv) any other action or inaction by, or matter which is the responsibility of, Borrower; or (v) any construction of the parties or their relationship (as partners, joint venturers, or otherwise).  No Indemnified Party shall be entitled to be indemnified against its own gross negligence or willful misconduct.  The foregoing indemnification shall survive repayment or assignment of the Loan.

Borrower shall permit agents, representatives and employees of Agent or any Lender to inspect the Project or any part thereof at reasonable hours upon reasonable advance notice to Borrower.
 
14.5  Notice of Default.

Borrower shall cooperate fully with Agent with respect to any proceedings before any court, board or other Governmental Authority which may in any way affect the rights of Agent hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents and, in connection therewith, permit Agent, at its election, to participate in any such proceedings which may have a material adverse effect on Borrower or the Project or which may prevent Borrower from performing its obligations under this Agreement, the Note or the other Loan Documents.
 
14.7  Lost Notes.
 
Upon a Lender’s furnishing to Borrower an affidavit to such effect (which affidavit shall include an indemnification by such Lender of Borrower with respect to any claim by a third party asserting rights under such lost note), Borrower shall, if any Note is mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen, deliver to such Lender, in substitution therefor, a new note containing the same terms and conditions as its Note with a notation thereon of the unpaid principal accrued and unpaid interest.
 
14.8  Insurance Benefits.
 
Borrower shall cooperate with Agent in obtaining for Agent the benefits of any Condemnation Proceeds or Insurance Proceeds lawfully or equitably payable in connection with the Project, and Agent shall be reimbursed for any expenses incurred in connection therewith (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) out of such Proceeds.

The Interest Rate Protection Product, and the financial institution providing the Interest Rate Protection Product, shall be subject to Agent’s prior written approval, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.  The Interest Rate Protection Product must, at a minimum, protect against the excess of the 30-day LIBOR Rate (or such other LIBOR Rate as is approved by Agent in its reasonable discretion) over 7.5% per annum.  Borrower shall afford Agent and Lenders an opportunity to participate in the bidding for all Interest Rate Protection Products.
 
(b)  Any indebtedness incurred pursuant to an Interest Rate Agreement entered into by Borrower and Agent or a Lender shall constitute indebtedness evidenced by the Notes and secured by the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents to the same extent and effect as if the terms and provisions of such Interest Rate Agreement were set forth herein, whether or not the aggregate of such indebtedness, together with the disbursements of the proceeds of the Loan, shall exceed the face amount of the Notes.
 
(c)  Borrower hereby collaterally assigns to Agent for the benefit of Lenders any and all Interest Rate Protection Products purchased from time to time by Borrower in connection with the Loan, as additional security for the Loan, and agrees to provide Agent with any additional documentation requested by Agent in order to confirm or perfect such security interest during the term of the Loan.  If Borrower obtains an Interest Rate Protection Product from a party other than Agent or a Lender, such other party shall be reasonably acceptable to Agent (which party shall have a long-term unsecured debt rating of not less than “A-” by Standard & Poor’s Inc.) and Borrower shall deliver to Agent such third party’s consent to such collateral assignment.  No Interest Rate Protection Product purchased from a party other than Agent or a Lender may be secured by an interest in Borrower or the Project.

Borrower shall not suffer, permit or initiate the joint assessment of the Project (a) with any other real property constituting a tax lot separate from the Project, and (b) which constitutes real property with any portion of the Project which may be deemed to constitute personal property, or any other procedure whereby the lien of any taxes which may be levied against such personal property shall be assessed or levied or charged to such real property portion of the Project.
 
14.20  Leasing Matters.
 
(a)  Borrower shall obtain prior written consent of Agent for (1) all Leases hereinafter executed and (2) all amendments, modifications, terminations or surrenders of existing Leases, which in either event:
 
(i)  are not the product of an arm’s-length transaction; or
 
(ii)  are not undertaken in a manner consistent with TRG’s standard leasing practices; or
 
(iii)  which result in a material adverse effect on the use, operation or value (including the Net Operating Income) of the Project, taken as a whole, or the ability of Borrower to pay its obligations in respect of the Loan.
 
Borrower agrees that Agent may (but need not) condition its consent for a termination, cancellation or surrender of any Lease described in (i), (ii) or (iii) above (a “Restricted Termination”) upon, among other things, Borrower delivering to and depositing with Agent any amount, consideration or other sum received by or payable to Borrower or on Borrower’s behalf in connection with any Restricted Termination including, but not limited to, any termination, cancellation or “buyout” payment and the proceeds of any claim which Borrower may have against any Person in connection with such action.  In addition, whether or not Agent’s consent is so required, Agent may require Borrower to deposit with Agent any amount, consideration or other sum received by or payable to Borrower or on Borrower’s behalf in connection with any  termination, cancellation or “buyout” payment with respect to, and the proceeds of any claim which Borrower may have against any Person in connection with, any Major Lease.  Provided that no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, such amount shall be applied first, to the payment of tenant improvements and leasing commissions incurred in replacing such Tenant as determined by Agent in its sole discretion and then, to the extent required for shortfalls as determined by Agent in its sole discretion, to the payment of required Reserve Funds.
 
(b)  Borrower agrees that after the occurrence of a Lockbox Event and until the occurrence of the applicable Lockbox Termination Event, Agent’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for (i) all Leases executed during such period demising 25,000 or more rentable square feet at the Project and (ii) all material amendments, modifications, terminations or surrenders executed during such period affecting 25,000 or more rentable square feet at the Project.

(b)  All insurance provided for in Section 16.1(a) shall be obtained under valid and enforceable policies (collectively, the “Policies” or, in the singular, the “Policy”), and shall be subject to the confirmation by Agent that the insurance companies, amounts, deductibles, loss payees and insureds satisfy the requirements expressly set forth herein.  The Policies shall be issued by a financially sound and responsible insurance company or a syndicate of companies through which at least seventy-five percent (75%) of the coverage (if there are four (4) or fewer members of the syndicate) or at least sixty percent (60%) of the coverage (if there are five (5) or more members of the syndicate) is provided by companies authorized to do business in the State and having a claims paying ability rating of “A” or better by S&P and an equivalent rating by Fitch and Moody’s and an A.M. Best rating of “A, X” or better; provided, however, the Policies may be maintained by Factory Mutual Insurance Companies on the condition that, to the extent required by Agent, Borrower maintains a credit wrap, in form and substance acceptable to Agent, provided by Lexington Insurance Company, or other carrier authorized to do business in the State and having a claims paying ability rating of “A” or better by S&P and an equivalent rating by Fitch and Moody’s.  The Policies described in Section 16.1 (other than those strictly limited to liability protection) shall designate Agent as mortgagee and loss payee.  Not less than ten (10) days prior to the expiration dates of the Policies theretofore furnished to Agent, certificates of insurance evidencing the Policies accompanied by evidence satisfactory to Agent of payment of the premiums due thereunder (the “Insurance Premiums”), shall be delivered by Borrower to Agent.
 
(c)  Any blanket insurance Policy shall specifically allocate to the Agent the amount of coverage from time to time required hereunder and shall otherwise provide the same protection as would a separate Policy insuring only the Project in compliance with the provisions of Section 16.1(a).
 
(d)  All Policies of insurance provided for or contemplated by Section 16.1(a), except for the Policy referenced in Section 16.1(a)(v), shall name Borrower as the insured and Agent, as agent, the additional insured, as its interests may appear, and in the case of property damage, boiler and machinery, flood and earthquake insurance, shall contain a so-called New York standard non-contributing mortgagee clause in favor of Agent providing that the loss thereunder shall be payable to Agent.
 
(e)  All Policies of insurance provided for in Section 16.1 shall contain clauses or endorsements to the effect that:
 
(i)  no act or negligence of Borrower, or anyone acting for Borrower, or other occupant, or failure to comply with the provisions of any Policy, which might otherwise result in a forfeiture of the insurance or any part thereof, shall in any way affect the validity or enforceability of the insurance insofar as Agent or Lenders are concerned;
 
(ii)  the Policy shall not be materially changed (other than to increase the coverage provided thereby) or cancelled without at least thirty (30) days written notice to Agent and any other party named therein as an additional insured;
 
(iii)  the issuers thereof shall give written notice to Agent if the Policy has not been renewed thirty (30) days prior to its expiration; and
 
(iv)  Agent shall not be liable for any Insurance Premiums thereon or subject to any assessments thereunder.
 
(f)  If at any time Agent is not in receipt of written evidence that all insurance required hereunder is in full force and effect, Agent shall have the right, upon prior notice to Borrower, to take such action as Agent deems necessary to protect its interest in the Project, including, without limitation, the obtaining of such insurance coverage as Agent in its sole discretion deems appropriate. All premiums incurred by Agent in connection with such action or in obtaining such insurance and keeping it in effect shall be paid by Borrower to Agent upon demand and, until paid, shall be secured by the Mortgage and shall bear interest at the Default Rate.
 
16.2  Casualty.
 
If the Project shall be damaged or destroyed, in whole or in part, by fire or other casualty, Borrower shall promptly commence and diligently prosecute the completion of the repair and restoration of the Project substantially to the condition the Project was in immediately prior to such casualty, with such alterations as may be reasonably approved by Agent (a “Restoration”) and otherwise in accordance with Section 16.4.  Borrower shall give prompt notice of any such damage in excess of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) to Agent. Borrower shall pay all costs of such Restoration which are not covered by insurance.  Upon prior written notice to Borrower, Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make proof of loss if not made promptly by Borrower.  In the event of a casualty where the loss does not exceed Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000), Borrower may settle and adjust such claim; provided that (a) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (b) such adjustment is carried out in a commercially reasonable and timely manner. In the event of a casualty where the loss exceeds Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) or if an Event of Default then exists, Borrower may settle and adjust such claim only with the consent of Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and Agent shall have the opportunity to participate, at Borrower’s cost, in any such adjustments.  Notwithstanding any casualty, Borrower shall continue to pay all amounts payable under the Loan Documents.
 
16.3  Condemnation.
 
Borrower shall promptly give Agent notice of the actual or threatened (upon receipt by Borrower of written notice of such threat) commencement of any proceeding for the condemnation of the Property and shall deliver to Agent copies of any and all papers served in connection with such proceedings. Provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, in the event of a condemnation where the amount of the taking does not exceed Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000), Borrower may settle and compromise such condemnation; provided that the same is effected in a commercially reasonable and timely manner.  In the event a condemnation where the amount of the taking exceeds Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) or if an Event of Default then exists, Borrower may settle and compromise the condemnation only with the consent of Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and Agent shall have the opportunity to participate, at Borrower’s cost, in any litigation and settlement discussions in respect thereof and Borrower shall from time to time deliver to Agent all instruments requested by it to permit such participation. Borrower shall, at its expense, diligently prosecute any such proceedings, and shall consult with Agent, its attorneys and experts, and cooperate with them in the carrying on or defense of any such proceedings.  Notwithstanding any taking by any public or quasi-public authority through condemnation or otherwise (including but not limited to any transfer made in lieu of or in anticipation of the exercise of such taking), Borrower shall continue to pay all amounts payable under the Loan Documents.  If the Project or any portion thereof is taken by a condemning authority, Borrower shall promptly commence and diligently prosecute the Restoration of the Property and otherwise comply with the provisions of this Agreement.  If the Property is sold, through foreclosure or otherwise, prior to the receipt by Lenders of any condemnation award, Lenders shall have the right, whether or not a deficiency judgment on the Note shall have been sought, recovered or denied, to receive such award, or a portion thereof sufficient to pay the remaining indebtedness.
 
16.4  Restoration.
 
The following provisions shall apply in connection with the Restoration of the Property:
 
(a)  If the Net Proceeds shall be less than Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) and the costs of completing the Restoration shall be less than Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000), the Net Proceeds will be disbursed by Agent to Borrower upon receipt, provided that all of the conditions set forth in Section 16.4(b)(i) (other than in subclauses (E), (F), (J) and (K) thereof) are met (or will, by completion of the Restoration, be satisfied) and Borrower delivers to Agent a written undertaking to expeditiously commence and to satisfactorily complete with due diligence the Restoration in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
 
(b)  If the Net Proceeds are equal to or greater than Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) or the costs of completing the Restoration is equal to or greater than Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) Agent shall make the Net Proceeds available for the Restoration in accordance with the provisions of this Section 16.4.  The term “Net Proceeds” for purposes of this Section 16.4 shall mean: (i) the net amount of all insurance proceeds received by Agent pursuant to Section 16.2 as a result of such damage or destruction, after deduction of its reasonable costs and expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable counsel fees), if any, in collecting same (“Insurance Proceeds”), or (ii) the net amount of any condemnation award, after deduction of its reasonable costs and expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable counsel fees), if any, in collecting same (“Condemnation Proceeds”), whichever the case may be.

The term “Gross Rent Percentage” shall mean (1) in the event that the Net Proceeds are Insurance Proceeds, a percentage amount equal to seventy-five percent (75%) and (2) in the event the Net Proceeds are Condemnation Proceeds, a percentage amount equal to seventy-five percent (75%);
 
(D)  Borrower shall commence the Restoration as soon as reasonably practicable (but in no event later than ninety (90) days after such casualty or condemnation, whichever the case may be, occurs) and shall diligently pursue the same to satisfactory completion;
 
(E)  Agent shall be reasonably satisfied that any operating deficits, including all scheduled payments of principal and interest under the Note, which will be incurred with respect to the Project as a result of the occurrence of any such casualty or condemnation, whichever the case may be, will be covered out of (1) the Net Proceeds, (2) the insurance coverage referred to in Section 16.1(a)(iii) or Section 16.1(a)(x), if applicable, or (3) by other funds of Borrower;
 
(F)  Agent shall be reasonably satisfied that the Restoration will be completed on or before the earliest to occur of (1) the earliest date required for such completion under the terms of any Leases, (2) such time as may be required under applicable zoning law, ordinance, rule or regulation in order to repair and restore the Project to the condition it was in immediately prior to such casualty or condemnation or to as nearly as possible the condition it was in immediately prior to such casualty or condemnation, as applicable, (3) the expiration of the insurance coverage referred to in Section 16.1(a)(iii) or Section 16.1(a)(x) or (4) the date which is not later than six (6) months prior to the Maturity Date;

(J)  Borrower shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Agent a signed detailed budget approved in writing by Borrower’s architect or engineer stating the entire cost of completing the Restoration, which budget shall be acceptable to Agent in Agent’s reasonable discretion; and
 
(K)  the Net Proceeds together with (1) any cash or cash equivalent deposited by Borrower with Agent, or (2) any Letter of Credit delivered for such purpose are sufficient in Agent’s reasonable discretion to cover the cost of the Restoration.
 
(ii)  The Net Proceeds shall be held by Agent in an interest-bearing account and, until disbursed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 16.4(k), shall constitute additional security for the Loan and other obligations under the Loan Documents. The Net Proceeds shall be disbursed by Agent to, or as directed by, Borrower from time to time during the course of the Restoration, upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to Agent that (A) all materials installed and work and labor performed (except to the extent that they are to be paid for out of the requested disbursement) in connection with the Restoration have been paid for in full, and (B) there exist no notices of pendency, stop orders, mechanic’s or materialman’s liens or notices of intention to file same, or any other liens or encumbrances of any nature whatsoever on the Project which have not either been fully bonded to the satisfaction of Agent and discharged of record or in the alternative fully insured to the satisfaction of Agent by the title company issuing the Title Insurance Policy.
 
(iii)  All plans and specifications required in connection with the Restoration shall be subject to prior review and acceptance in all respects by Agent, which acceptance shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.  Agent shall have the use of the plans and specifications and all permits, licenses and approvals required or obtained in connection with the Restoration. The identity of the contractors, subcontractors and materialmen engaged in the Restoration, as well as the contracts under which they have been engaged, shall be subject to prior review and acceptance by Agent, which acceptance shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.  All reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Agent in connection with making the Net Proceeds available for the Restoration shall be paid by Borrower.
 
(iv)  In no event shall Agent be obligated to make disbursements of the Net Proceeds in excess of an amount equal to the costs actually incurred from time to time for work in place as part of the Restoration minus the Casualty Retainage. The term “Casualty Retainage” shall mean an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the costs actually incurred for work in place as part of the Restoration until the Restoration has been completed. The Casualty Retainage shall in no event, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above in this Section 16.4(b), be less than the amount actually held back by Borrower from contractors, subcontractors and materialmen engaged in the Restoration. The Casualty Retainage shall not be released until the Restoration has been completed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 16.4(b) and that all approvals necessary for the re-occupancy and use of the Project have been obtained from all appropriate governmental and quasi-governmental authorities, and Agent receives evidence satisfactory to Agent that the costs of the Restoration have been paid in full or will be paid in full out of the Casualty Retainage; provided, however, that Agent will release the portion of the Casualty Retainage being held with respect to any contractor, subcontractor or materialman engaged in the Restoration when the contractor, subcontractor or materialman has satisfactorily completed all work and has supplied all materials in accordance with the provisions of the contractor’s, subcontractor’s or materialman’s contract, the contractor, subcontractor or materialman delivers the lien waivers and evidence of payment in full of all sums due to the contractor, subcontractor or materialman as may be reasonably requested by Agent or by the title company issuing the Title Insurance Policy, and Agent receives an endorsement to the Title Insurance Policy insuring the continued priority of the lien of the Mortgage and evidence of payment of any premium payable for such endorsement. If required by Agent, the release of any such portion of the Casualty Retainage shall be approved by the surety company, if any, which has issued a payment or performance bond with respect to the contractor, subcontractor or materialman.
 
(v)  Agent shall not be obligated to make disbursements of the Net Proceeds more frequently than once every calendar month.
 
(vi)  If at any time the Net Proceeds or the undisbursed balance thereof shall not, in the reasonable opinion of Agent be sufficient to pay in full the balance of the costs which are estimated by the Agent to be incurred in connection with the completion of the Restoration, Borrower shall deposit the deficiency (the “Net Proceeds Deficiency”) with Agent before any further disbursement of the Net Proceeds shall be made.  The Net Proceeds Deficiency shall be held by Agent and shall be disbursed for costs actually incurred in connection with the Restoration on the same conditions applicable to the disbursement of the Net Proceeds, and until so disbursed pursuant to this Section 16.4(b) shall constitute additional security for the Loan and other obligations under the Loan Documents.
 
(vii)  The excess, if any, of the Net Proceeds and the remaining balance, if any, of the Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited with Agent after the Restoration has been completed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 16.4(b), and the receipt by Agent of evidence reasonably satisfactory to Agent that all costs incurred in connection with the Restoration have been paid in full, shall be (a) if the Net Proceeds are Insurance Proceeds, remitted to Borrower, provided no Event of Default shall have occurred and shall be continuing under the Note, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or (b) if the Net Proceeds are Condemnation Proceeds, be applied subject to Section 16.4(c), toward the payment of the Loan whether or not then due and payable in such order, priority and proportions as Agent in its sole discretion shall deem proper.
 
(c)  All Net Proceeds not required (i) to be made available for the Restoration or (ii) to be returned to Borrower as excess Net Proceeds pursuant to Section 16.4(b)(vii) may be retained and applied by Agent toward the payment of the Loan whether or not then due and payable in such order, priority and proportions as Agent shall deem proper or, at the discretion of the Agent, the same may be paid, either in whole or in part, to Borrower for such purposes as the Agent shall designate.
 
(d)  In the event of foreclosure of the Mortgage with respect to the Project, or other transfer of title to the Project in lieu of foreclosure, all right, title and interest of Borrower in and to the Policies that are not blanket Policies then in force concerning the Project and all proceeds payable thereunder shall thereupon vest in the purchaser at such foreclosure or Agent (on behalf of the Lenders) or other transferee in lieu of foreclosure.
 
(e)  Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, (i) the provisions of the Ground Lease, the REA and Leases with Anchor Tenants with respect to insurance proceeds for the Restoration shall control in the event of any conflict between the provisions of the Ground Lease, the REA, Leases with Anchor Tenants and the provisions of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents and (ii) Lender hereby agrees to apply the proceeds of insurance to the Restoration to the extent required by, and in accordance with, the Ground Lease, the REA and the Leases with Anchor Tenants.

The Agent may designate any Assignee accepting an assignment of a specified portion of the Loan to be a Co-Agent, an “Arranger” or similar title, but such designation shall not confer on such Assignee the rights or obligations of the Agent.  Upon such execution, delivery, approval and acceptance, and upon the effective date specified in the applicable Assignment and Assumption, (a) the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, and Borrower hereby agrees that all of the rights and remedies of Lenders in connection with the interest so assigned shall be enforceable against Borrower by an Assignee with the same force and effect and to the same extent as the same would have been enforceable but for such assignment, and (b) the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Assumption, relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations hereunder and thereunder.  Borrower shall upon the request of any assigning Lender execute a replacement note in favor of the Assignee with respect to the amount assigned in the same form as the Note then held by the Assignor, provided that the original note shall be returned to Borrower.

(c)  Agent shall maintain a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to and accepted by it and shall record in its records the names and address of each Lender and the Commitment of, and Percentage of the Loan owing to, such Lender from time to time.  Borrower, the Agent and Lenders may treat each entity whose name is so recorded as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement.
 
(d)  Upon receipt of an Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an Assignee, Agent shall, if such Assignment and Assumption has been properly completed, accept such Assignment and Assumption, and record the information contained therein in its records, and the Agent shall use its best efforts to give prompt notice thereof to Borrower (provided that neither the Agent nor the Lenders shall be liable for any failure to give such notice).
 
(e)  Borrower shall use reasonable efforts to cooperate with Agent and each Lender in connection with the assignment of interests under this Agreement or the sale of participations herein.
 
(f)  Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, and without the need to comply with any of the formal or procedural requirements of this Agreement, including this section, any Lender may at any time and from time to time pledge and assign all or any portion of its rights under all or any of the Loan Documents to a Federal Reserve Lender; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from its obligations hereunder.  To facilitate any such pledge or assignment, the Agent shall, at the request of such Lender, enter into a letter agreement with the Federal Reserve Lender in, or substantially in, the form of the exhibit to Appendix C to the Federal Reserve Lender of New York Operating Circular No. 12.
 
(g)  Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, any Lender may assign all or any portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to another branch bank or Affiliate of such Lender without first obtaining the approval of any Agent or the Borrower, provided that (i) such Lender remains liable hereunder unless the Borrower and Agent shall otherwise agree, (ii) at the time of such assignment such Lender is not a Defaulting Lender (as defined in Section 21.5(b)), (iii) such Lender gives the Agent and Borrower at least fifteen (15) days prior written notice of any such assignment; (iv) the parties to each such assignment execute and deliver to Agent an Assignment and Assumption, and (v) the Agent receives from the assigning Lender a processing fee of Three Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($3,500).
 
(h)  Each Lender shall have the right, without the consent of the Borrower or Agent, to sell participations to one or more other lenders (a “Participant”) in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under the Loan and the Loan Documents; provided, however, that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement (including without limitation its Commitment to Borrower hereunder) shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations (iii) the Borrower, the Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and with regard to any and all payments to be made under this Agreement, (iv) the holder of any such participation shall not be entitled to voting rights under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (but such holder may otherwise contract with the Lender selling such Participant its interest in such Lender’s share of the Loan as to voting of such Lender’s interest under Section 21.6(b) [but not under any other section of this Agreement], provided that any such agreement by a Lender shall bind only such Lender alone and not Borrower, the other Lenders or the Agent) and (v) each participation shall be in a minimum amount of $10,000,000.
 
(i)  Borrower acknowledges and agrees that Lenders may provide to any Assignee or Participant, originals or copies of this Agreement, any other Loan Document and any other documents, instruments, certificates, opinions, insurance policies, letters of credit, reports, requisitions and other materials and information of every nature or description, and may communicate all oral information, at any time submitted by or on behalf of Borrower or received by any Lender in connection with the Loan or with respect to Borrower, provided that prior to any such delivery or communication, such Assignees or Participants shall agree to preserve the confidentiality of any of the foregoing to the same extent that such Lender agreed to preserve such confidentiality.  In order to facilitate assignments to Assignees and sales to Participants, Borrower shall execute such further documents, instruments or agreements as Lenders may reasonably require; provided, that Borrower shall not be required (i) to execute any document or agreement which would decrease its rights, or increase its obligations, relative to those set forth in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents (including financial obligations, personal recourse, representations and warranties and reporting requirements), or (ii) to expend more than incidental sums of money or incidental administrative time for which it does not receive reasonable reimbursement in order to comply with any requests or requirements of any Lender in connection with such assignment or sale arrangement.  In addition, Borrower agrees to cooperate fully with Lenders in the exercise of Lenders’ rights pursuant to this Section 17.1, including providing such information and documentation regarding Borrower as any Lender or any potential Assignee or Participant may reasonably request and to meet with potential Assignees and Participants.

ARTICLE 20
 

 
LENDERS’ REMEDIES IN EVENT OF DEFAULT
 
20.1  Remedies Conferred Upon Lenders.
 
Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default (and for so long as the same shall be continuing), Agent may, and at the written direction of the Required Lenders shall, in addition to all remedies conferred upon Lenders by Law and by the terms of the Notes, Mortgage and other Loan Documents, pursue any one or more of the following remedies concurrently or successively, it being the intent hereof that none of such remedies shall be to the exclusion of any other:
 
(a)  Take possession of the Project and do anything which is necessary or appropriate in its sole, good faith judgment to fulfill the obligations of Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.  Without restricting the generality of the foregoing and for the purposes aforesaid, Borrower hereby appoints and constitutes Agent its lawful attorney-in-fact with full power of substitution in the Project to pay, settle or compromise all existing bills and claims, which may be liens or security interests, or to avoid such bills and claims becoming liens against the Project or security interests against fixtures or equipment, or as may be necessary or desirable or for the clearance of title; to execute all applications and certificates in the name of Borrower which may be required by any of the Loan Documents; to prosecute and defend all actions or proceedings in connection with the Improvements or Project or fixtures or equipment; and in connection therewith, to execute instruments of release and satisfaction; and to do any and every act which the Borrower might do in its own behalf; it being understood and agreed that this power of attorney shall be a power coupled with an interest and cannot be revoked;
 
(b)  Declare the Notes to be immediately due and payable by written notice to Borrower;
 
(c)  Assess interest on the Notes at the Default Rate;
 
(d)  Use and apply any monies deposited by Borrower with Agent or draw upon any Letters of Credit, in each case, regardless of the purposes for which the same was deposited, to cure any such default or to apply on account of any indebtedness under this Agreement which is due and owing to Lenders;
 
(e)  Exercise or pursue any other remedy or cause of action permitted under this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, or conferred upon Lenders by operation of Law.
 
Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default under Sections 19.1(f) or (g) above with respect to Borrower, all amounts evidenced by the Notes shall automatically become due and payable, together with accrued interest thereon, without any presentment, demand, protest or further notice of any kind to Borrower. The Agent shall take such action with respect to such Event of Default as shall be directed by the Lenders whose approval is required; provided that unless and until the Agent shall have received such directions, the Agent may (but shall not be obliged to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Event of Default as the Agent shall deem advisable and in the best interests of the Lenders.  In no event shall Agent or Lenders be required to take any action which it determines to be contrary to Law or which could expose the Agent or Lenders to material risk of liability.
 
20.2  Non-Waiver of Remedies.
 
No waiver of any breach or default hereunder shall constitute or be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach or default or of any breach or default of any other provision of this Agreement.
 
ARTICLE 21
 

 
AGENT
 
21.1  Appointment.
 
Eurohypo AG, New York Branch, is hereby appointed as Agent hereunder and under each other Loan Document, and the Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Agent to act as agent for Lenders and to take such actions as Lenders are obligated or entitled to take under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to exercise such powers as are set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Agent agrees to act as such upon the express conditions contained in this Article 21 in substantially the same manner that it would act in dealing with a loan held for its own account.  Agent shall not have a fiduciary relationship with respect to any Lender by reason of this Agreement.
 
The provisions of this Article 21 are solely for the benefit of the Agent and Lenders, and Borrower shall not have any rights to rely on or enforce any of the provisions hereof except as provided in Section 21.2 below.  In performing its functions and duties under this Agreement, the Agent shall act solely as agent of the Lenders and does not assume, and shall not be deemed to have assumed, any obligations toward or relationship of agency or trust with or for the Borrower.
 
21.2  Reliance on Agent.
 
All acts of and communications by the Agent, as agent for the Lenders, shall be deemed legally conclusive and binding; and Borrower or any third party (including any court) shall (and may) rely on any and all communications or acts of the Agent with respect to the exercise of any rights or the granting of any consent, waiver or approval on behalf of Lenders in all circumstances where an action by Lenders is required or permitted pursuant to this Agreement or the provisions of any other Loan Document or by applicable law without the right or necessity of making any inquiry of any individual Lender as to the authority of Agent with respect to such matter.  In no event shall any of the foregoing limit the rights or obligations of any Lender with respect to any other Lender pursuant to this Article 21.
 
21.3  Powers.
 
The Agent shall have and may exercise such powers under the Loan Documents as are specifically delegated to the Agent by the terms of each thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, and may exercise all other powers of Lenders as are not made subject to the consent of the Required Lenders pursuant to Section 21.6(a) or to the consent of all Lenders pursuant to Section 21.6(b).  The Agent shall not be considered, or be deemed, a separate agent of the Lenders hereunder, but is, and shall be deemed, an Agent acting in its capacity as an Agent, exercising such rights and powers under the Loan Documents as are specifically delegated to the Agent or as Agent is otherwise entitled to take hereunder.  Agent shall have no implied duties to the Lenders, or any obligation to the Lenders to take any action except any action specifically provided by the Loan Documents to be taken by the Agent.  The designation of any Lender as Co-Agent shall not confer any of the rights, powers, or obligations of Agent on such Lender.
 
21.4  Disbursements.
 
Each Lender which is required to make a disbursement of the Loan under this Agreement shall make available to Agent (or the funding bank or entity designated by the Agent), the amount of such Lender’s Commitment in immediately available funds not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the Closing Date.  Unless the Agent shall have been notified by any Lender prior to such time for funding that such Lender does not intend to make available to the Agent such Lender’s advance, the Agent may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to the Agent and the Agent, in its sole discretion, may, but shall not be obligated to, make available to Borrower a corresponding amount.  If such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to the Agent by such Lender on or prior to the Closing Date, such Lender agrees to pay and Borrower agrees to repay to Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to Borrower until the date such amount is paid or repaid to Agent, at (A) in the case of such Lender, the overnight cost of funds at which federal funds are made available to the Agent (such interest rate to change automatically effective as of the date of each change in the overnight cost of federal funds), and (B) in the case of Borrower, the interest rate applicable at the time to a disbursement made on the Closing Date.  If such Lender shall pay to Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s advance, and if both such Lender and Borrower shall have paid and repaid, respectively, such corresponding amount, Agent shall promptly return to Borrower such corresponding amount in same day funds.
 
21.5  Distribution and Apportionment of Payments.
 
(a)  Subject to Section 21.5(b), payments actually received by Agent for the account of the Lenders shall be paid to them promptly after receipt thereof by Agent.  Agent shall distribute any such payment to the Lenders (1) if Agent receives such payment on or before 12:00 p.m. (New York time), on the same Business Day such payment is received, or (2) if Agent receives such payment after 12:00 p.m. (New York time), on the immediately succeeding Business Day, in each case subject to delay for force majeure not to exceed two (2) Business Days.  If any payments received by Agent are not timely distributed to the Lenders as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, Agent shall pay to such Lenders interest thereon, from the date of receipt of such funds by Agent until such funds are paid in immediately available funds to such Lenders, at the lesser of (i) the overnight cost of funds at which federal funds are made available to the Agent (such interest rate to change automatically effective as of the date of each change in the overnight cost of federal funds) and (ii) if the applicable payment represents repayment of a portion of the principal of the Loan, the rate of interest applicable to such portion of the Loan.  Payments of principal and interest in respect of the Loan, all payments of the fees described in this Agreement (but not in any separate fee letter except to the extent expressly set forth therein), and all payments in respect of any other obligations of Borrower under the Loan Documents shall be allocated among such of the Lenders as are entitled thereto, in proportion of their respective Percentages or as otherwise provided herein or in the other Loan Documents, as the case may be.  All funds received by Agent or any Lenders from the exercise of remedies hereunder or under the Loan Documents, including without limitation any liquidation, sale or other realization upon all or any portion of the Project, shall, unless otherwise required by the terms of the Loan Documents or applicable Laws, be applied as follows:
 
(i)  First, to the payment of all advances, fees and expenses (to the extent not paid by Borrower or Carveout Guarantor) incurred by Agent reimbursable under this Agreement, including, without limitation, all reasonable costs and expenses of collection, reasonable attorneys’ fees, court costs and any foreclosure expenses;
 
(ii)  Second,  to the payment of interest then accrued on the Loan, to each Lender prorata in accordance with its Percentage;
 
(iii)  Third, to the payment of the principal balance then owing on the Loan and to Breakage Costs under Interest Rate Agreements, to Agent and each Lender pro rata in accordance with the respective amounts owed to each under this clause (iii);
 
(iv)  Fourth, to the payment of all other amounts owed by Borrower to Agent and each Lender pro rata in accordance with the respective amounts owed; and
 
(v)  Last, to the Borrower.
 
The Agent shall distribute to each Lender at its primary address set forth herein or in its Assignment and Assumption, or at such other address as a Lender may request in writing, such funds as it may be entitled to receive, provided that the Agent shall in any event not be bound to inquire into or determine the validity, scope or priority of any interest or entitlement of any Lender and may suspend all payments and seek appropriate relief (including without limitation instructions from the Required Lenders, or all Lenders, as applicable, or an action in the nature of interpleader) in the event of any doubt or dispute as to any apportionment or distribution contemplated hereby.  The order of priority herein is set forth solely to determine the rights and priorities of the Lenders as among themselves and may at any time or from time to time be changed by the Lenders as they may elect, in writing, without necessity of notice to or consent of or approval by Borrower.
 
(b)  If a Lender (a “Defaulting Lender”) fails to pay within five (5) Business Days after written notice from Agent any other sum payable by it hereunder, such sum together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date such amount was due until repaid (such sum and interest thereon as aforesaid referred to, collectively, as the “Lender Default Obligation”) shall be payable by the Defaulting Lender (i) to any Lender(s) which elect, at their sole option (and with no obligation to do so), to fund the amount which the Defaulting Lender failed to fund or (ii) to Agent or any other Lender which under the terms of this Agreement is entitled to reimbursement from the Defaulting Lender for the amounts advanced or expended.  Notwithstanding any provision hereof to the contrary, until such time as a Defaulting Lender has repaid the Lender Default Obligation in full, all amounts which would otherwise be distributed to the Defaulting Lender shall instead be applied first to repay the Lender Default Obligation (to be applied first to interest at the Default Rate and then to principal) until the Lender Default Obligation has been repaid in full (whether by such application or by cure by the Defaulting Lender), whereupon such Lender shall no longer be a Defaulting Lender.  Any interest collected from Borrower on account of principal advanced by any Lender(s) on behalf of a Defaulting Lender shall be paid to the Lender(s) who made such advance and shall be credited against the Defaulting Lender’s obligation to pay interest on the amount advanced at the Default Rate.  If no other Lender funds the amount which the Defaulting Lender was obligated to fund, then a portion of the Defaulting Lender’s indebtedness hereunder equal to the Lender Default Obligation shall be subordinated to the indebtedness of Borrower to all of the other Lenders and shall be repaid only after payment in full of all other indebtedness hereunder.  The provisions of this section shall apply and be effective regardless of whether an Event of Default occurs and is then continuing, and notwithstanding (i) any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary or (ii) any instruction of Borrower as to its desired application of payments.  Additionally, a Defaulting Lender’s right to vote on matters which are subject to the consent or approval of Required Lenders or all Lenders shall be suspended until it ceases to be a Defaulting Lender, and during any such period in which a Defaulting Lender’s voting rights have been suspended the Required Lenders shall be the requisite percentage of all other Lenders.  The Agent shall be entitled to (i) withhold or set off, and to apply to the payment of the Lender Default Obligation any amounts to be paid to such Defaulting Lender under this Agreement, and (ii) bring an action or suit against such Defaulting Lender in a court of competent jurisdiction to recover the Lender Default Obligation and, to the extent such recovery would not fully compensate the Lenders for the Defaulting Lender’s breach of this Agreement, to collect damages.  In addition, the Defaulting Lender shall indemnify, defend and hold Agent and each of the other Lenders harmless from and against any and all claims, actions, liabilities, damages, costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and expenses), plus interest thereon at the Default Rate, for funds advanced by Agent or any other Lender on account of the Defaulting Lender or any other damages such entities may sustain or incur by reason of or as a direct consequence of the Defaulting Lender’s failure or refusal to abide by its obligations under this Agreement.  If a Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, Borrower may find a replacement Lender and require the Defaulting Lender to assign its interest to the replacement Lender on and subject to the provisions of Section 17.1(a) (including the requirement of Agent’s consent), provided that there shall be deducted from the amount that would otherwise be paid to the Defaulting Lender upon the assignment of its interest in the Loan the amount of the Lender Default Obligation.
 
(c)  At least five Business Days prior to the first date on which interest or fees are payable hereunder for the account of any Lender, each Lender that is not incorporated under the laws of the United States of America, or a state thereof, agrees that it will deliver to the Agent two duly completed copies of United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8 BEN or Form W-8 ECI, certifying in either case that such Lender is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement and the Notes without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes.  Each Lender which so delivers a Form W-8 BEN or Form W-8 ECI further undertakes to deliver to the Agent two additional copies of such form (or a successor form) on or before the date that such form expires or becomes obsolete or after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent forms so delivered by it, and such amendments thereto or extensions or renewals thereof as may be reasonably requested by the Agent, in each case certifying that such Lender is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement and the Notes without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes, unless 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 Lender from duly completing and delivering any such form with respect to it and such Lender advises the Agent that it is not capable of receiving payments without any deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax.
 
21.6  Consents and Approvals.
 
(a)  Each of the following acts shall not be undertaken by Agent without the approval or consent of the Required Lenders:
 
(i)  Exercise of rights and remedies under the Loan Documents following an Event of Default; provided, however, that unless and until Agent has received direction from the Required Lenders, the Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Event of Default as the Agent shall deem advisable and in the best interest of the Lenders.
 
(ii)  Appointment of a successor Agent;
 
(iii)  Approval of Post-Default Plan;
 
(iv)  Except as referred to in subsection (b) below, approval of any amendment or modification of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or issuance of any waiver of any material provision of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents;
 
(v)  Approval of any matter for which the approval of the Required Lenders is expressly required pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document; and
 
(vi)  Consent to a sale of the Project or Change in Control or the further mortgaging by Borrower of the Project.
 
(b)  Each of the following actions shall not be undertaken by Agent without the approval or consent of all the Lenders:
 
(i)  Extension of the Maturity Date (beyond any extension permitted herein) or forgiveness of all or any portion of the principal amount of the Loan or any accrued interest thereon, or any other amendment of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents which would reduce the underlying interest rate (except as hereinabove specifically provided) or the rate at which fees are calculated or forgive any loan fee, or extend the time of payment of any principal, interest or fees;
 
(ii)  Reduction of the percentage specified in the definition of Required Lenders;
 
(iii)  Increase of the amount of the Loan or any non-consenting Lender’s Commitment;
 
(iv)  Release of any lien on any material collateral (except after payment in full of the Loan or as otherwise required under the terms hereof or the other Loan Documents);
 
(v)  Release of the Carveout Guarantor from all or any material part of its liability under the Carveout Guaranty other than as may be required by the terms thereof; and
 
(vi)  Amendment of the provisions of this Article 21.
 
(c)  In addition to the required consents or approvals referred to in subsections (a) and (b) above, the Agent may at any time request instructions from the Required Lenders with respect to any actions or approvals which, by the terms of this Agreement or of any of the Loan Documents, the Agent is permitted or required to take or to grant without instructions from any Lenders, and if such instructions are promptly requested, the Agent shall be absolutely entitled to refrain from taking any action or to withhold any approval and shall not be under any liability whatsoever for refraining from taking any action or withholding any approval under any of the Loan Documents until it shall have received such instructions from the Required Lenders.  Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against Agent as a result of Agent acting or refraining from acting under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in accordance with the instructions of the Required Lenders or, where applicable, all Lenders.  The Agent shall promptly notify each Lender at any time that the Required Lenders have instructed the Agent to act or refrain from acting pursuant hereto.
 
(d)  Each Lender authorizes and directs the Agent to enter into the Loan Documents other than this Agreement for the benefit of the Lenders.  Each Lender agrees that any action taken by the Agent at the direction or with the consent of the Required Lenders in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and the exercise by the Agent at the direction or with the consent of the Required Lenders of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all Lenders, except for actions specifically requiring the approval of all Lenders.  All communications from the Agent to the Lenders requesting Lenders’ determination, consent, approval or disapproval (i) shall be given in the form of a written notice to each Lender which notice shall specify that unless such Lender responds within the Lender Reply Period (defined below) such Lender shall be deemed to have approved such action, (ii) shall be accompanied by a description of the matter or item as to which such determination, approval, consent or disapproval is requested, or shall advise each Lender where such matter or item may be inspected, or shall otherwise describe the matter or issue to be resolved, (iii) shall include, if reasonably requested by a Lender and to the extent not previously provided to such Lender, written materials and a summary of all oral information provided to the Agent by Borrower in respect of the matter or issue to be resolved, and (iv) shall include the Agent’s recommended course of action or determination in respect thereof.  Each Lender shall reply promptly, but in any event within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of the request therefor from the Agent (the “Lender Reply Period”).  Unless a Lender shall give written notice to the Agent that it objects to the recommendation or determination of the Agent (together with a written explanation of the reasons behind such objection) within the Lender Reply Period, such Lender shall be deemed to have approved of or consented to such recommendation or determination.  With respect to decisions requiring the approval of the Required Lenders or all Lenders, the Agent shall submit its recommendation or determination for approval of or consent to such recommendation or determination to all Lenders and upon receiving the required approval or consent shall follow the course of action or determination recommended to the Lenders by the Agent or such other course of action recommended by the Required Lenders, and each non-responding Lender shall be deemed to have concurred with such recommended course of action.
 
21.7  Agency Provisions Relating to Collateral.
 
(a)  The Agent is hereby authorized on behalf of all Lenders, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from any Lender, at any time and from time to time, to take any action with respect to any Collateral or any Loan Document which may be necessary to preserve and maintain such Collateral or to perfect and maintain perfected the liens upon such Collateral granted pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
 
(b)  Except as provided in this Agreement, the Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to any Lender or to any other person or entity to assure that any Collateral exists or is owned by Borrower or is cared for, protected or insured or has been encumbered or that the liens granted herein or in any of the other Loan Documents or pursuant hereto or thereto have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority.
 
(c)  Should the Agent commence any proceeding or in any way seek to enforce the Agent’s or the Lenders’ rights or remedies under the Loan Documents, irrespective of whether as a result thereof the Agent shall acquire title to any Collateral, each Lender, upon demand therefor from time to time, shall contribute its share (based on its Percentage) of the reasonable costs and/or expenses of any such enforcement or acquisition, including, but not limited to, fees of receivers or trustees, court costs, title company charges, filing and recording fees, appraisers’ fees and fees and expenses of attorneys to the extent not otherwise reimbursed by Borrower.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Lender shall contribute its share (based on its Percentage) of all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Agent (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) if the Agent employs counsel for advice or other representation (whether or not any suit has been or shall be filed) with respect to any collateral for the Loan or any part thereof, or any of the Loan Documents, or the attempt to enforce any security interest or lien on any collateral, or to enforce any rights of the Agent or the Lenders or any of Borrower’s or any other party’s obligations under any of the Loan Documents.  It is understood and agreed that in the event the Agent determines it is necessary to engage counsel for Lenders from and after the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default, said counsel shall be selected by the Agent and written notice of such selection, together with a copy of such counsel’s engagement letter and fee estimate, shall be delivered to the Lenders.
 
(d)  In the event that all or any portion of the collateral for the Loan is acquired by the Agent as the result of the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or is retained in satisfaction of all or any part of Borrower’s obligations under the Loan Documents, title to any such collateral or any portion thereof shall be held in the name of the Agent or a nominee or subsidiary of the Agent, as agent, for the ratable benefit of the Agent and the Lenders.  The Agent shall prepare a recommended course of action for such collateral (the “Post-Default Plan”), which shall be subject to the approval of the Required Lenders.  The Agent shall administer the collateral in accordance with the Post-Default Plan, and upon demand therefor from time to time, each Lender will contribute its share (based on its Percentage) of all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Agent pursuant to the Post-Default Plan, including without limitation, any operating losses and all necessary operating reserves.  To the extent there is net operating income from such collateral, the Agent shall, in accordance with the Post-Default Plan, determine the amount and timing of distributions to Lenders.  All such distributions shall be made to Lenders in accordance with their respective Percentages.  In no event shall the provisions of this subsection or the Post-Default Plan require any Agent or any Lender to take an action which would cause such Lender to be in violation of any applicable regulatory requirements.
 
21.8  Lender Actions Against Borrower or the Collateral.
 
Each Lender agrees that it will not take any action, nor institute any actions or proceedings, against Borrower or any other person hereunder or under any other Loan Documents with respect to exercising claims against Borrower or rights in any Collateral, except for actions by the Agent on behalf of the Lenders or as set forth in Section 21.10.  With respect to any action by the Agent to enforce the rights and remedies of the Agent and Lenders with respect to the Borrower and any collateral in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, each Lender hereby consents to the jurisdiction of the court in which such action is maintained.
 
21.9  Assignment and Participation.
 
No Lender shall be permitted to assign or sell all or any portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to Borrower or any Affiliate of Borrower.
 
21.10  Ratable Sharing.
 
Subject to Sections 21.4 and 21.5, Lenders agree among themselves that (i) with respect to all amounts received by them which are applicable to the payment of the Loan, equitable adjustment will be made so that, in effect, all such amounts will be shared among them ratably in accordance with their Percentages, whether received by voluntary payment, by the exercise of the right of set-off or banker’s lien, by counterclaim or cross action or by the enforcement of any or all of the Loan Documents or any collateral and (ii) if any of them shall by voluntary payment or by the exercise of any right of counterclaim, set-off, banker’s lien or otherwise, receive payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of the Loan held by it which is greater than its Percentage of the payments on account of the Loan, the one receiving such excess payment shall promptly return such excess payment to Agent.  Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant to this Section may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of Borrower in the amount of such participation.
 
21.11  General Immunity.
 
Neither Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable to Borrower or any Lender for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them hereunder or under any other Loan Document or in connection herewith or therewith, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct, and provided that Agent shall not be exculpated from breach of any contractual obligation to which the Agent is subject.  In the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, the Agent shall not be liable for any apportionment or distribution of payments made by it in good faith pursuant to Section 21.5, and if any such apportionment or distribution is subsequently determined to have been made in error the sole recourse of any Lender to whom payment was due, but not made, shall be to recover from the Agent any deficiency, and Agent shall have the right to recover from the recipients of such payments any payment in excess of the amount to which they are determined to have been entitled.
 
21.12  No Responsibility for Loan, Recitals, etc.
 
Neither Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, or verify (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in connection with any Loan Document or any use of the Loan; (ii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants or agreements of any party to any Loan Document; (iii) the satisfaction of any condition specified in this Agreement, except receipt of items purporting to be the items required to be delivered to any Agent; or (iv) the validity, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other instrument or writing furnished in connection therewith, provided that the foregoing shall not release any Agent from liability for its gross negligence or willful misconduct.
 
21.13  Action on Instructions of Lenders.
 
The Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, hereunder and under any other Loan Document in accordance with written instructions signed by all the Lenders (or the Required Lenders, if such action may be directed hereunder by the Required Lenders), and such instructions and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding on all of Lenders.  Each Lender, severally to the extent of its Percentage, hereby agrees to indemnify Agent against and hold it harmless from any and all liability, cost and expense that it may incur by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action, provided that the foregoing shall not release Agent from liability for its gross negligence or willful misconduct.
 
21.14  Employment of Agents and Counsel.
 
The Agent may undertake any of its duties as Agent hereunder and under any other Loan Document by or through employees, agents, and attorneys-in-fact and shall not be liable to Lenders, except as to money or securities received by them or their authorized agents, for the default or misconduct of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care.  The Agent shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to the agency hereby created and its duties hereunder and under any other Loan Document.
 
21.15  Reliance on Documents; Counsel.
 
The Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, statement, paper or document believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by the proper person or persons, and, in respect to legal matters, upon the opinion of counsel selected by the Agent, which counsel may be an employee of Agent, provided that the foregoing shall not release the Agent from liability for its gross negligence or willful misconduct.  Any such counsel shall be deemed to be acting on behalf of Lenders in assisting the Agent with respect to the Loan, but shall not be precluded from also representing Agent in any matter in which the interests of Agent and the other Lenders may differ.
 
21.16  Agent’s Reimbursement and Indemnification.
 
Lenders agree to reimburse and indemnify Agent ratably in accordance with their Percentages (i) for any amounts (excluding principal and interest on the Loan and loan fees) not reimbursed by Borrower for which Agent is entitled to reimbursement under the Loan Documents, (ii) for any other expenses incurred by Agent on behalf of Lenders, in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration and enforcement of the Loan Documents, if not paid by Borrower, (iii) for any expenses incurred by Agent on behalf of Lenders which may be necessary or desirable to preserve and maintain collateral or to perfect and maintain perfected the liens upon the collateral granted pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, if not paid by Borrower, (iv) for any amounts and other expenses incurred by Agent on behalf of Lenders in connection with any default by any Lender hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, if not paid by such Lender, and (v) for any liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind and nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent in any way relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents or any other document delivered in connection therewith or the transactions contemplated thereby, or the enforcement of any of the terms thereof or of any such other documents, provided that no Lender shall be liable for any of the foregoing to the extent they arise from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Agent.
 
21.17  Rights as a Lender.
 
With respect to its Commitment, if any, Agent shall have the same rights, powers and obligations hereunder and under any other Loan Document as any Lender and may exercise such rights and powers as though it were not an Agent, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless the context otherwise indicates, include such Agent in its individual capacities.  The Borrower and each Lender acknowledge and agree that Agent and/or its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, hold other investments in, and generally engage in any kind of trust, debt, equity or other transaction or have other relationships, in addition to those contemplated by this Agreement or any other Loan Document, with Borrower or any of its Affiliates in which Borrower or such affiliate is not restricted hereby from engaging with any other person.
 
21.18  Lenders’ Credit Decisions.
 
Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender and based on the financial statements and other information prepared by Borrower and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.  Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
 
21.19  Notices.
 
Should Agent receive any written notice from Borrower, or should the Agent send Borrower any  notice, the Agent shall promptly give notice thereof to each Lender.
 
21.20  Successor Agent/Removal of Agent.
 
(a)  Agent may resign from the performance of all its functions and duties hereunder at any time by giving at least thirty (30) days prior written notice to Lenders and Borrower.  Any such resignation shall take effect on the date set forth in such notice or as otherwise provided below.  Such resignation by Agent as agent shall not affect its obligations hereunder, if any, as a Lender.
 
(b)  The Agent may be removed for material breach of its duties under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents by the Required Lenders.  Additionally, if (other than at such time as an Event of Default exists) Agent transfers all or portion of its interest in the Loan so that Agent ceases to hold at least a $25,000,000.00 interest in the Loan (minus principal pay-downs), Borrower or the Required Lenders may elect to replace Agent.
 
(c)  Upon resignation or removal of the Agent, or any successor Agent, the Required Lenders shall appoint a successor Agent with the consent of Borrower, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed (provided that no consent of Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default then exists).  If no successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders, and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Agent’s giving notice of resignation, then the retiring Agent may appoint a successor Agent with the consent of Borrower, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed (provided that no consent of Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default then exists).  Upon the acceptance of any appointment as an Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the Agent and the Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents other than its liability, if any, for duties and obligations accrued prior to its retirement.  After any retiring Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as an Agent, the provisions of this Article 21 shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as an Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents.
 
21.21  Modifications to Article 21.
 
Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the provisions of this Article 21 are intended to govern the relationship among the Lenders and Agent, and the provisions of this Article 21 may accordingly be modified without Borrower’s consent (except for approval rights expressly granted to Borrower herein).
 
21.22  Titles.
 
The Agent may designate any Lender to be a Co-Agent, a “Syndication Agent,” a “Book Manager,” an “Arranger” or similar title, but such designation shall not confer on such Lender or other party any rights or obligations of the Agent.
