Each Additional Advance shall be subject to the satisfaction of the following terms and conditions:
(i)    no Default or Event of Default exists at the time the Additional Advance is requested or on the date such Additional Advance is requested to be made;
(ii)    no more than one (1) Additional Advance shall be permitted in a thirty (30) day period (and for the avoidance of doubt each Advance Request shall contain a request for all Advance Items requested by Borrower for such 30-day period) (not including Additional Advances made pursuant to Section 2.3.1 with respect to the Monthly Payment Amount);
(iii)    no Additional Advance shall be requested or advanced for an amount less than $250,000.00 (other than the last requested Additional Advance with respect to any given Advance Item if less and other than Additional Advances made pursuant to Section 2.3.1 with respect to the Monthly Payment Amount);

LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 35



(or if inchoate mechanic's or supplier's liens have, that they are subordinate to the lien of the Security Instrument), and, if available and applicable, that neither public nor private conditions, covenants or restrictions, if any, affecting the Property have been violated); and (B) if the insured amount under the Title Insurance Policy is not the maximum amount of the Loan, an endorsement insuring the continued priority of the lien of the Security Instrument, subject only to the Permitted Encumbrances, increasing the coverage amount of the Title Insurance Policy by an amount equal to such Additional Advance;
(v)    (A) the Property shall comply in all material respects with all Legal Requirements, (B) if any Restoration is then continuing, Borrower is diligently pursuing such Restoration and Administrative Agent has determined that the non-completion of such Restoration prior to the making of the Additional Advance is not reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect, and (C) no Casualty or Condemnation shall have occurred that permits any tenant party to a Major Lease a termination right (or such right shall have been waived or lapsed);
(vi)    Administrative Agent shall have received (A) prior to the first request for an Additional Advance (and prior to any subsequent request for an Additional Advance where the authorized representative of Borrower has changed), a Certificate of Authority indicating the representative of Borrower that is authorized to make such request, and (B) for each request for an Additional Advance, an Officer's Certificate with all blanks completed and applicable attachments included;
(vii)    Borrower shall have paid to Administrative Agent a draw fee of $1,500 paid or reimbursed all of Additional Advance Lender's and Administrative Agent's outstanding fees and expenses (including the out-of-pocket fees and expenses of Administrative Agent's construction consultant(s)), and all other out-of-pocket fees, costs and expenses (including fees and expenses of outside legal counsel) relating to the Loan to the extent then due and payable;
(viii)    except as expressly permitted herein, such Additional Advance shall be requested no later than the Additional Advance End Date (and Lender shall have no obligation to make any further Additional Advances in the event that all applicable conditions precedent to the making of any such Additional Advance are not satisfied as of the Additional Advance End Date);
(ix)    with respect to each Additional Advance requested for the payment of Project Expenditures:
(A)    at least ten (10) Business Days (but not more than sixty (60) days) prior to the date on which Borrower requests that the Additional Advance be made, Borrower shall have delivered to Administrative Agent a written request indicating the requested amount of the Additional Advance, and specifying the Project Expenditure for which such Additional Advance is sought (an "Advance Request");
(B)    Administrative Agent shall have (1) approved of all Plans and Specifications for the Project; (2) received copies of all necessary Project Permits and evidence that the same are in full force and effect; (3) approved of the Project Schedule; (4) approved of all Project Documents relating to the Project; and (5) if required by Administrative Agent, received a written status report detailing the progress of the completion of the Project;

(E)    Administrative Agent shall have received evidence reasonably satisfactory to it that Borrower has paid (or will pay concurrently with the funding of the Additional Advance), from its own funds, at least the greater of (A) sixty percent (60%) of the cost of such Project Expenditure, and (B) the actual cost of the applicable Project Expenditure, less the amount to be advanced by Lender hereunder for such Project Expenditure (it being agreed that if required by Administrative Agent, such amounts shall be paid to Administrative Agent and Administrative Agent shall pay the applicable invoice from such funds and the Additional Advance);

LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 38



(I)    Administrative Agent shall have either approved the proposed Lease to which the Additional Advance relates (including any applicable commission/fee agreements) if such Lease requires Administrative Agent's approval hereunder, or verified that the proposed Lease to which the Additional Advance relates satisfies the Lease Requirements with respect to Leases which do not require Administrative Agent's approval hereunder; and

LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 39



(F)    Administrative Agent shall have received evidence satisfactory to it that Borrower has paid (or will pay concurrently with the funding of the Additional Advance), from its own funds, the actual cost of the applicable Hotel Predevelopment Expenditure, less the amount to be advanced by Lender hereunder for such Hotel Predevelopment Expenditure (it being agreed that if required by Administrative Agent, such amounts shall be paid to Administrative Agent, and Administrative Agent shall pay the applicable invoice from such funds and the Additional Advance);
(xii)    In the event that a portion of the Additional Advance is to be funded by Mezzanine Lender, Mezzanine Lender shall have made (or shall make concurrently with the making of the Additional Advance hereunder) Mezzanine Lender's Pro Rata Share of the total amount requested by Borrower hereunder and by Mezzanine Borrower under the Mezzanine Loan Agreement; provided, however, in the event that Mezzanine Lender has failed to make the required Mezzanine Loan Additional Advance in breach of the Mezzanine Loan Agreement, this condition shall be deemed satisfied so long as Administrative Agent shall have received evidence satisfactory to it that Borrower has paid or will pay concurrently with the funding of the Additional Advance, from its own funds, the amount that was otherwise required to be paid by Mezzanine Lender.
The requesting of an Additional Advance shall constitute, without necessity of specifically containing a written statement to such effect, a confirmation, representation and warranty by Borrower to Administrative Agent that all of the applicable conditions to be satisfied in connection with the making of such Additional Advance have been satisfied (unless waived in writing by Administrative Agent) and that all of the representations and warranties of Borrower set forth in the Loan Documents are true and correct as if made on (and with respect to facts and circumstances existing as of) the date on which such Additional Advance is made.
(c)    Separate Contracts for Additional Advances; Several Obligations. Borrower covenants and agrees not to take any action whatsoever, at law or in equity (including the assertion of any right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense) against Administrative Agent or the holder of a Note on account of an Additional Advance Lender failing to fund any portion of the Additional Advance in violation of this Agreement (except, with respect to the holder of a Note, to the extent that the holder of such Note is also the holder of the Note with respect to which such Additional Advance is required, and then in such case, such Lender(s) shall only have such liability in its capacity as holder of such Note to the extent of such required Additional Advances). In the event Borrower breaches the foregoing covenant, Borrower shall indemnify, defend and hold Administrative Agent and each Lender harmless from any and all Losses incurred by Administrative Agent and such Lender in any way related to such breach. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that (i) the holder of each Note shall have no obligation to make any Additional Advance except to the extent that the holder of such Note is also the holder of a Note with respect to which such Additional Advance is required, and then in such case, such Lender(s) shall only have such liability in its capacity as holder of such Note to the extent of such required Additional Advances, and that such obligation shall be the several, sole and exclusive obligation of each Additional Advance Lender, (ii) each Additional Advance Lender's respective obligations to make Additional Advances in accordance with Section 2.1(b) are a several obligation of such Additional Advance Lender, and an independent contract made by and between such Additional Advance Lender and Borrower separate and apart from any other obligation of any other Lender under the other provisions of the Loan Documents, and (iii) each Lender may, in its sole and absolute discretion, waive one or more conditions precedent to the making of an Additional Advance, but that no such waiver shall be binding upon any other Lender, nor shall any such waiver constitute a course of conduct or otherwise obligate such Lender to grant such wavier or any other waiver in the future. The obligations of Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be reduced, discharged or released because or by reason of any existing or future offset, claim or defense of Borrower, or any other
LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 40



party, against any Additional Advance Lender by reason of an Additional Advance Lender's failure to make any Additional Advance. Borrower agrees that it shall not assert (and shall not have) any defense (including the assertion of any right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense) to the payment of Debt owed to an Additional Advance Lender in the event such Additional Advance Lender breaches any obligation to make an Additional Advance that it is required to make hereunder. The making of any Additional Advance by an Additional Advance Lender at the time when an Event of Default exists shall not be deemed a waiver or cure by any Additional Advance Lender of that Event of Default, nor shall an Additional Advance Lender's rights and remedies be prejudiced in any manner thereby. Nothing in this Section 2.1(c) shall be deemed to be a release of any claim that Borrower may have against any Additional Advance Lender for its failure to perform its obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
(d)    Advancing on the Additional Advance End Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if the aggregate amount of the Notes has not been fully disbursed to Borrower in accordance with this Agreement by the Additional Advance End Date, then so long as all conditions precedent to the making of an Additional Advance described in Section 2.1(b) shall then be satisfied (not including clauses (vi), (vii), (viii), (ix), (x) and (xi) thereof) or waived by Administrative Agent, and (iii) Mezzanine Lender shall have delivered to Administrative Agent its Pro Rata Share of the applicable amount requested by Borrower hereunder and the amount requested by Mezzanine Borrower under the Mezzanine Loan Agreement (which sums shall be held by Administrative Agent in the applicable Reserve Account described below and disbursed as provided herein), and unless Borrower has notified Administrative Agent in writing at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the Additional Advance End Date that Borrower has elected to waive its right to receive any further Additional Advances (and if Borrower does so indicate in writing, such waiver shall be irrevocable), on the Additional Advance End Date each Lender agrees (on a several basis, up to the amount of its Commitment Percentage of the total amount being funded) to:
(A)    make an Additional Advance in the amount for which Borrower then remains eligible to pay for Project Expenditures for purposes of depositing funds into the Project Expenditure Reserve Account in an amount not in excess of the amount that Borrower otherwise remains eligible to receive pursuant to Section 2.1(b) above with respect to Project Expenditures but for the existence of the Additional Advance End Date, which funds (together with any applicable funds received from Mezzanine Lender for such purpose) shall be held in the Project Expenditure Reserve Account and disbursed by Administrative Agent only for the payment of Project Expenditures on and subject to the same terms and conditions applicable to the making of Additional Advances for Project Expenditures (other than conditions contained in clauses (iv) (to the extent satisfied in connection with the making of the entire Additional Advance on the Additional Advance End Date) and (viii) of Section 2.1(b) hereof); and
(B)    make an Additional Advance in the amount for which Borrower then remains eligible to pay for Leasing Expenditures for purposes of depositing funds into the TI/LC Reserve Account in an amount not in excess of the amount that Borrower otherwise remains eligible to receive pursuant to Section 2.1(b) above with respect to Leasing Expenditures but for the existence of the Additional Advance End Date, which funds (together with any applicable funds received from Mezzanine Lender for such purpose) shall be held in the TI/LC Reserve Account and disbursed by Administrative Agent only for the payment of Leasing Expenditures on and subject to the same terms and conditions applicable to the making of Additional Advances for Leasing Expenditures (other than conditions contained in clauses (iv) (to the extent satisfied in connection with the making of the entire Additional Advance on the Additional Advance End Date) and (viii) of Section 2.1(b) hereof); and
LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 41



(C)    make an Additional Advance in the amount for which Borrower then remains eligible to pay for Hotel Predevelopment Expenditures for purposes of depositing funds into a deposit account established by Administrative Agent (which account shall be a Reserve Account for all purposes under the Loan Documents, and which Reserve Account shall be referred to herein as the "Hotel Predevelopment Expenditure Reserve Account") in an amount not in excess of the amount that Borrower otherwise remains eligible to receive pursuant to Section 2.1(b) above with respect to Hotel Predevelopment Expenditures but for the existence of the Additional Advance End Date, which funds (together with any applicable funds received from Mezzanine Lender for such purpose) shall be held in the Hotel Predevelopment Expenditure Reserve Account and disbursed by Administrative Agent only for the payment of Hotel Predevelopment Expenditures on and subject to the same terms and conditions applicable to the making of Additional Advances for Hotel Predevelopment Expenditures (other than conditions contained in clauses (iv) (to the extent satisfied in connection with the making of the entire Additional Advance on the Additional Advance End Date) and (viii) of Section 2.1(b) hereof).
(e)    Fees Payable to Borrower Parties. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, prior to the date that the Project is Complete, no Borrower Party shall be paid any fee with respect to the Property or the Project or from any proceeds of the Loan, any Reserve Accounts or any Revenues with respect to the Property, other than those portions of the Permitted Construction Management Fees that are permitted to paid prior to Completion of the Project and any ongoing property management fees paid to the Manager pursuant to the Management Agreement. As used herein, "Permitted Construction Management Fees" means construction management fees (or similar) to be paid to Manager pursuant to the Management Agreement in connection with the Project in an amount not to exceed $1,280,000.00 in the aggregate (the "Construction Management Fee Cap") while the Loan is outstanding, payable solely at the following times and in the following amounts (i) a fee in the amount not to exceed fifty percent and 00/100 percent (50.00%) of such aggregate fees due or to become due under the Management Agreement to be paid from Additional Advances for Project Expenditures prior to Completion of the Project, on a percentage of completion basis, and (ii) from and after the date that the Project is Complete, the remaining fees due or to become due under the Management Agreement, subject to the Construction Management Fee Cap.
Section 2.2.     Interest Rate.
2.2.1    Interest Calculation. Subject to Section 2.2.2, interest on the Outstanding Principal Balance shall accrue from the Closing Date until the Debt is repaid in full at the Interest Rate, and during the continuance of an Event of Default, at the Default Rate. Interest on the Outstanding Principal Balance shall be calculated by multiplying (a) the actual number of days elapsed in the period for which the calculation is being made by (b) a daily rate based on the Interest Rate (or the Default Rate, if applicable) and a three hundred sixty (360) day year, by (c) the Outstanding Principal Balance.
2.2.2    Usury Savings. This Agreement, the Note and the other Loan Documents are subject to the express condition that at no time shall Borrower be obligated or required to pay interest on the Outstanding Principal Balance at a rate which could subject Lender or Administrative Agent to either civil or criminal liability as a result of being in excess of the maximum nonusurious interest rate, if any, that at any time or from time to time may be contracted for, taken, reserved, charged or received on the Loan and as provided for herein or the other Loan Documents, under the laws of the state or states whose laws are held by any court of competent jurisdiction to govern the interest rate provisions of the Loan. If, by the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, Borrower is at any time required or obligated to pay interest at a rate in excess of the amount allowed pursuant to this Section, the Interest Rate or the Default Rate, as the case may be, shall be deemed to be immediately reduced to the rate that is
LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 42



not in excess of the amount allowed pursuant to this Section and all previous payments in excess of such maximum rate shall be deemed to have been payments in reduction of principal and not on account of the interest due hereunder. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to any Lender or Administrative Agent for the use, forbearance, or detention of the sums due under the Loan, shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, be amortized, prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the full stated term of the Loan until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Loan does not exceed the maximum legal rate of interest from time to time in effect and applicable to the Loan for so long as the Loan is outstanding.
Section 2.3.     Loan Payment.
2.3.1    Required Payments. Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders, on the Closing Date an amount equal to interest only on the Outstanding Principal Balance from the Closing Date up to but not including September 8, 2018. Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders, on the Payment Date in October, 2018 (which shall be the first Payment Date hereunder) and on each Payment Date thereafter up to and including the Maturity Date, the Monthly Payment Amount, which payments (prior to an Event of Default) shall be applied (i) first to amounts due and payable with respect to the Loan other than principal and interest (but including interest at the Default Rate), and then (ii) to accrued and unpaid interest at the Interest Rate, and then (iii) to the Outstanding Principal Balance. Borrower shall pay the entire Debt to Administrative Agent on the Maturity Date. So long as no Event of Default then exists and except in respect of Net Proceeds, all payments received by Administrative Agent with respect to the Loan shall be applied by each Lender to amounts due with respect to each Note on a pro rata and pari passu basis, based on the outstanding principal amount due under each Note and the interest rate applicable thereto; provided, however, that (A) all payments received by Administrative Agent and any amounts applied by each Lender during the continuance of an Event of Default and (B) any Net Proceeds applied to repay the Loan as provided herein, shall, in each case, be applied by Administrative Agent to amounts due with respect to the Notes in such order and priority as Administrative Agent shall determine in its sole discretion. It is acknowledged that Lender intends for Note A to be a senior note and Note B to be a junior note.
2.3.2    Late Payment Charge. If any principal, interest or any other sums due under the Loan Documents is not paid by Borrower by the date on which it is due, Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent upon demand an amount equal to the lesser of five percent (5%) of such unpaid sum or the maximum amount permitted by applicable Legal Requirements in order to defray the expense incurred by Administrative Agent and Lender in handling and processing such delinquent payment and to compensate Administrative Agent and Lender for the loss of the use of such delinquent payment. Any such amount shall be secured by the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no late payment charge shall apply to the failure to pay the entire Outstanding Principal Balance of the Loan when due, whether upon acceleration, or otherwise.
2.3.3    Payments Generally. For purposes of making payments hereunder, but not for purposes of calculating Interest Periods, if the day on which such payment is due is not a Business Day, then amounts due on such date shall be due on the immediately preceding Business Day. All amounts due pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be payable without setoff, counterclaim, defense or any other deduction whatsoever. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, all payments and prepayments under the Loan Documents shall be made to Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 P.M., New York City time, on the date when due and shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America in immediately available funds at Administrative Agent's office or as otherwise directed by Administrative Agent, and any funds received by Administrative Agent after such time shall, for
LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 43



all purposes hereof, be deemed to have been paid on the next succeeding Business Day. While an Event of Default exists, any prepayment shall be applied to payments of principal of the Loan and other amounts due under the Loan Documents in such order and priority as Administrative Agent may determine in its sole discretion. All payments received by Administrative Agent during the existence of an Event of Default on any day other than a Payment Date (other than an Event of Default resulting from a failure to repay the Debt on the Maturity Date) shall be deemed to have been made on the next occurring Payment Date.
2.3.4    Voluntary Prepayments.
(a)    Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, Borrower shall not have the right to prepay the Loan in whole or in part prior to the Scheduled Maturity Date. On any Business Day Borrower may, at its option and upon at least twenty (20) days prior written notice to Administrative Agent specifying the Business Day on which such prepayment is to be made (which notice may be revoked by Borrower at any time prior to such date provided that Borrower shall reimburse Administrative Agent and Lender for any costs incurred by Administrative Agent and Lender as a result of such revocation), prepay the Debt in whole, but not in part (except as otherwise expressly permitted under this Agreement), provided that such prepayment is accompanied by (i) all interest accrued on the amount of the Loan being so prepaid through and including the last day of the Interest Period in effect as of such date on which the prepayment is made, (ii) all other sums due and payable under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including, but not limited to all of Administrative Agent's and Lender's costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney's fees and disbursements) incurred thereby in connection with such prepayment, and (iii) the Exit Fee applicable to such payment and, if paying the Debt in full, the Minimum Multiple, if applicable (provided that the payment of the principal portion of the Monthly Payment Amount shall not require the concurrent payment of the Exit Fee otherwise applicable thereto, and such portion of the Exit Fee shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date). Administrative Agent shall execute and deliver to or at the direction of Borrower, upon the written request and at the expense of Borrower, upon payment in full of the Debt in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement, such documents as may be necessary to release the lien of the Security Instrument in form and content reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent. Irrespective of the time of the final repayment of the Loan in full, whether on the Maturity Date, by prepayment, or in connection with an acceleration of the Loan after the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Loan shall be subject to the requirement (the "Minimum Multiple") that the cumulative amount received by Lender and Mezzanine Lender of the Spread component of all interest payments for the Loan and the Mezzanine Loan (which Spread component shall exclude, without limitation, any amount paid on account of LIBOR, any increase in interest rate to the Default Rate, any origination fee paid, any Exit Fee paid, any extension fee paid by Borrower or Mezzanine Borrower at any time and any similar amounts) shall not be less than the Minimum Multiple Amount. If the Minimum Multiple has not been satisfied as of the date of final repayment of the Loan, Borrower's final prepayment or repayment shall, in addition to all other amounts required to be paid hereunder, include the amount necessary to satisfy the Minimum Multiple. For the avoidance of doubt, the Exit Fee and the Minimum Multiple are earned as of the Closing Date, and immediately due and payable in connection with the repayment in full of the Debt and/or in the event the Debt is accelerated after the occurrence of an Event of Default.
(b)    Special Mezzanine Loan Advance. In addition, Borrower shall be permitted to partially prepay the Loan at any time from the proceeds of one or more Special Mezzanine Loan Advances, which prepayment shall (i) be applied solely to the repayment of that portion of the Outstanding Principal Balance (and accrued interest thereon) evidenced by such Note(s) as elected by Mezzanine Loan Administrative Agent and with respect to which the holder thereof has agreed to accept such repayment (it being acknowledged that Borrower has no obligation to force any such Lender to accept such repayment), (ii) not require the payment of any Minimum
LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 44



Multiple or Exit Fee, and (iii) not require any act on the part of Borrower (it being agreed that each applicable Lender shall accept such payment directly from Mezzanine Loan Administrative Agent and shall have the right to rely on any notice from Mezzanine Loan Administrative Agent indicating that Mezzanine Lender is making a Special Mezzanine Loan Advance directly to such Lender for the purposes described above without having to determine whether Mezzanine Lender has made such Special Mezzanine Loan Advance in accordance with the requirements of the Mezzanine Loan Agreement); provided that Borrower shall nonetheless cooperate with respect to any Special Mezzanine Loan Advance as set forth in Article VII. In connection with the making of a Special Mezzanine Loan Advance, if Mezzanine Loan Administrative Agent elects to repay any Additional Advance Note (even if such Additional Advance Note balance is currently zero), Mezzanine Lender shall be deemed to assume the obligation of the Additional Advance Lenders to make additional advances of the Mezzanine Loan (on the terms and conditions contained in the Mezzanine Loan Agreement) in the amount of the unfunded Additional Advances evidenced by such Additional Advance Note and the holder of such Note hereunder shall have no further obligations to make such Additional Advances so assumed. From and after the making of any Special Mezzanine Loan Advance, (A) the Loan Amount shall be reduced (and such term deemed to be modified to reflect such reduction) by that portion of the Special Mezzanine Loan Advance that has repaid a portion of the Outstanding Principal Balance, and the amount of the Additional Advances required hereunder that have been assumed by Mezzanine Lender; (B) the Loan Amount (Note B) shall be reduced (and such term deemed to be modified to reflect such reduction) by that portion of the Special Mezzanine Loan Advance that has repaid a portion of the Outstanding Principal Balance evidenced by Note B, and the amount of the Additional Advances required hereunder with respect to Note B that have been assumed by Mezzanine Lender; (C) the Maximum Additional Advance Amount shall be reduced (and such term deemed to be modified to reflect such reduction) by the amount of the Additional Advances required hereunder that have been assumed by Mezzanine Lender; and (D) the term Pro Rata Share shall be deemed to be revised to mean, (1) with respect to the Additional Advance Lenders, a fraction (expressed as percentage) where the numerator is the amount of Additional Advances that the Additional Advance Lenders remain obligated to make under this Agreement, and the denominator is the sum of (y) the amount of Additional Advances that the Additional Advance Lenders remain obligated to make under this Agreement, plus (z) the amount of Mezzanine Loan Additional Advances that the Mezzanine Lender remains obligated to make under the Mezzanine Loan Agreement, and (2) with respect to Mezzanine Lender, a fraction (expressed as percentage) where the numerator is the amount of Mezzanine Loan Additional Advances that Mezzanine Lender remains obligated to make under the Mezzanine Loan Agreement, and the denominator is the sum of (y) the amount of Additional Advances that the Additional Advance Lenders remain obligated to make under this Agreement, plus (z) the amount of Mezzanine Loan Additional Advances that the Mezzanine Lender remains obligated to make under the Mezzanine Loan Agreement. From and after the making of any Special Mezzanine Loan Advance, all references in the Loan Documents to any Note that has been repaid (or with respect to which the obligation to make Additional Advances has been assumed by Mezzanine Lender, as the case may be) shall be of no further force or effect, and, if applicable, the Monthly Payment Amount shall be recalculated to account for such prepayment. Borrower and Lender acknowledge and agree that Mezzanine Loan Administrative Agent and Mezzanine Lender are each an intended third-party beneficiary of the right to prepay the Loan from the proceeds of a Special Mezzanine Loan Advance as described above, and that such provisions shall not be modified or waived without Mezzanine Loan Administrative Agent's and Mezzanine Lender's prior written consent.
2.3.5    Mandatory Prepayments. On the next occurring Payment Date following the date on which Administrative Agent actually receives any Net Proceeds, if Administrative Agent is not obligated, or does not elect pursuant to the terms hereof (to the extent it has a right to such election under the Loan Documents), to make such Net Proceeds available to Borrower for Restoration, Borrower is hereby deemed to have authorized Administrative Agent to apply such Net Proceeds as a prepayment of the Outstanding Principal Balance, together with unpaid
LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 45



interest thereon, and any other portion of the Debt, in an amount equal to the lesser of one hundred percent (100%) of such Net Proceeds or the amount of the Debt, and to remit any remaining Net Proceeds, if any, to Mezzanine Loan Administrative Agent to be applied in accordance with the terms of the Mezzanine Loan Documents. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Loan Documents, so long as no Event of Default then exists, no Minimum Multiple shall be due in connection with any prepayment made pursuant to this Section 2.3.5 (but, for the avoidance of doubt, the parties agree that the Exit Fee is a deferred financing fee and is applicable to any such prepayment).
2.3.6    Taxes.
(a)    Payment of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of Borrower under any Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable Legal Requirements. If any Legal Requirement requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment, then Borrower shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Legal Requirements and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, the sum payable by Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.3.6(a)) the applicable Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made. Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Legal Requirements any Other Taxes. Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent within ten (10) days after demand therefor, the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.3.6(a)) payable or paid by such Lender or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Lender and any expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Borrower by Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.3.6(a), Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment satisfactory to Administrative Agent.
(b)    Status of Lender. Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to Borrower, (i) prior to becoming a party to this agreement or obtaining any interest in the Loan, (ii) at the time or times requested by Borrower, and (iii) if any form or certification previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by Borrower as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, if reasonably requested by Borrower, any Lender shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable Legal Requirements (or reasonably requested by Borrower) as will enable Borrower to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to Borrower at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Borrower such documentation prescribed by applicable Legal Requirements (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Borrower as may be necessary for Borrower to comply with its obligations under FATCA and
LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 46



to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender's obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment (and solely for purposes of this clause (b), "FATCA" shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement and any fiscal or regulatory legislation, rules or practices adopted pursuant to any intergovernmental agreement entered into in connection with FATCA).
(c)    Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund in respect of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.3.6 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.3.6(c)), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 2.3.6 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this Section 2.3.6(c) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.3.6(c), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 2.3.6(c) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This Section 2.3.6(c) shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.
(d)    Survival. Each party's obligations under this Section 2.3.6 shall survive any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender and/or Administrative Agent, the termination of the commitments to make Additional Advances, and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.
(e)    Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.3.8, or requires Borrower to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.3.6(a), then such Lender shall (at the request of Borrower) use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loan hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to such Sections 2.3.6 or 2.3.8, as the case may be, in the future, and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. Borrower hereby agrees to pay all costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.
2.3.7    Breakage Indemnity. Borrower shall indemnify Administrative Agent and Lenders against any Losses which Administrative Agent and/or any Lender may actually sustain or incur in liquidating or redeploying deposits from third parties acquired to effect or maintain the Loan or any part thereof as a consequence of (i) any payment or prepayment of the Loan or any portion thereof made on a date other than a Payment Date and (ii) any failure to pay the Debt or any part thereof or interest accrued thereon, as and when due and payable (at the date thereof or otherwise, and whether by acceleration or otherwise). Administrative Agent shall deliver to Borrower a statement for any such sums which it or any Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.3.7, which statement shall be binding and conclusive absent manifest error.
LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 47



Borrower's obligations under this Section 2.3.7 are in addition to Borrower's obligations to pay any Minimum Multiple and Exit Fee applicable to a payment or prepayment of the Outstanding Principal Balance.
2.3.8    Legal Requirements. If any Change in Law shall (a) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement reflected in the determination of the LIBOR rate hereunder), (b) subject any Lender to any Taxes (other than (i) Indemnified Taxes, (ii) Taxes described in clauses (ii) through (iv) of the definition of Indemnified Taxes, and (iii) Other Connection Taxes that are imposed on or measured by net income (however denominated) or that are franchise Taxes or branch profits Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto, or (c) impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Loan made by such Lender or participation therein, and the result of any of the foregoing circumstances described in clauses (a) through (c) shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining the Loan or of maintaining its obligation to make the Loan, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, in any such case, upon request of such Lender, Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered. If any Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or any lending office of such Lender or such Lender's holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender's capital or on the capital of such Lender's holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loan made by such Lender, to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender's holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender's policies and the policies of such Lender's holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender's holding company for any such reduction suffered. A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in this Section 2.3.8 and delivered to Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.3.8 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender's right to demand such compensation; provided that Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section 2.3.8 for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than twelve (12) months prior to the date that such Lender notifies Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions, and of such Lender's intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the twelve-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof). Borrower will not claim or demand or be entitled to any credit or credits on account of the Debt for any part of the Property Taxes or other charges assessed against the Property, or any part thereof, and no deduction shall otherwise be made or claimed from the assessed value of the Property, or any part thereof, for property tax purposes by reason of the Security Instrument or the Debt. If such claim, credit or deduction shall be required by law, or if payment of any Tax by Borrower required hereunder is unlawful, unenforceable, taxable to Lender, or provides the basis for a defense of usury, then in either such case Administrative Agent shall have the option by written notice of not less than one hundred eighty (180) days to declare the Debt immediately due and payable (and any failure to repay the Debt by the end of such 180-day period shall be an Event of Default).
LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 48



2.3.9    Allocation of Fees among Noteholders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the following amounts will be allocated as set forth in this Section:
(a)    Exit Fee. The entire Exit Fee is allocated to the holders of Note B (on a pro rata basis among such holders).
(b)    Minimum Multiple. The Minimum Multiple paid by Borrower will be allocated among Note A, Note B, and the Mezzanine Loan as follows:
(1)    First, the Minimum Multiple Amount will be allocated among Note Class A-1 (as defined below), Note Class A-2 (as defined below), Note Class B-1 (as defined below), Note Class B-2 (as defined below), and Mezzanine Loan using the following proportions: the numerators shall be (i) Note Class A-1: the product of (x) the full commitment amount of the Note Class A-1 multiplied by (y) the Spread applicable to the Note Class A-1; (ii) Note Class A-2: the product of (x) the full commitment amount of the Note Class A-2 multiplied by (y) the Spread applicable to the Note Class A-2; (iii) Note Class B-1: the product of (x) the full commitment amount of the Note Class B-1 multiplied by (y) the Spread applicable to the Note Class B-1; (iv) Note Class B-2: the product of (x) the full commitment amount of the Note Class B-2 multiplied by (y) the Spread applicable to the Note Class B-2; and (v) with respect to the Mezzanine Loan, the product of (x) the full commitment amount of the Mezzanine Loan multiplied by (y) the Spread (as defined in the Mezzanine Loan Agreement) applicable to the Mezzanine Loan. The denominator shall be in all cases the sum of all of the numerators above. For the purposes of this Section 2.3.9(b), "Note Class A-1" shall mean collectively Note A-1 and Note A-1F, "Note Class A-2" shall mean collectively Note A-2 and Note A-2F, "Note Class B-1" shall mean collectively Note B-1 and Note B-1F, and "Note Class B-2" shall mean collectively Note B-2 and Note B-2F.
(2)    Second, the Minimum Multiple shall be calculated with respect to Note Class A-1 using the formula set forth in the definition thereof, but substituting the Minimum Multiple Amount that is allocated to the Note Class A-1 as determined in paragraph (1) above and only including payments made for the benefit of Note Class A-1; the process will be repeated for Note Class A-2, Note Class B-1 and Note Class B-2 and the Minimum Multiple paid by Borrower will be paid to Note Class A-1 up to the allocated amount, then to Note Class A-2 up to the allocated amount, then to Note Class B-1 up to the allocated amount, then to Note Class B-2 up to the allocated amount and then the remainder to the Mezzanine Loan.
(3)    Third, the Minimum Multiple payable to the Note Class A-1 will be allocated between the holders of Note A-1 and Note A-1F by repeating the process described in clauses (1) and (2) above with respect to such Notes, with the Minimum Multiple paid first to Note A-1 and then Note A-1F. The Minimum Multiple will be allocated between the notes that comprise Note Class A-2, Note Class B-1, Note Class B-2 and the Mezzanine Loan in a similar fashion.
(c)    Required Pay Down. The Required Pay Down is allocated to the Notes on a pro rata and pari passu basis.
(d)    Release Amount. The Release Amount is allocated to the Notes on a pro rata and pari passu basis.
(e)    Administration Fees. Any processing or administration fees (if applicable) and any fee(s) payable in connection with the making of an Additional Advance or the release of any portion of the Property from the liens of the Loan Documents as may be permitted hereunder or other similar fees payable to Lender hereunder in connection with the granting of requests for
LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 49



approvals (but not including assumption fees, which shall be paid to the Lenders on a pro rata basis, if applicable), shall be allocated to Administrative Agent.
2.3.10    Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of EEA Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any of the Loan Documents or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any EEA Financial Institution arising under any of the Loan Documents, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the write-down and conversion powers of an EEA Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by: (a) the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by an EEA Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an EEA Financial Institution; and (b) the effects of any Bail-in Action on any such liability, including, if applicable: (i) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability; (ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such EEA Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or (iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the write-down and conversion powers of any EEA Resolution Authority.
ARTICLE III

CASH MANAGEMENT; RESERVE ACCOUNTS
Section 3.1.     Cash Management. Concurrently herewith, Borrower (a) shall establish the Clearing Account and execute and deliver to Administrative Agent the Clearing Account Agreement and the Cash Management Agreement, and (b) shall (or shall cause Manager to) (i) deliver a written instruction to all tenants under Leases in a form reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent instructing that all Revenues be paid directly to the Clearing Account, and (ii) deposit all Revenues received by Borrower or Manager into the Clearing Account within one (1) Business Day after receipt (other than security deposits paid by tenants pursuant to any Leases, except to the extent any such security deposit has become forfeited to Borrower pursuant to the terms and conditions of any Lease). Borrower shall send a copy of each such instruction letter sent as provided above, together with evidence that the same has been sent, to Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days after delivery of such notice. Without the consent of Administrative Agent, neither Borrower nor Manager shall terminate, amend, revoke or modify any such instruction letter in any manner whatsoever, or direct or cause any Person to pay any amount in any manner other than as provided in the related instruction letter. On each Business Day, funds on deposit in the Clearing Account shall be transferred to the account of Borrower designated in the Clearing Account Agreement until such time as Administrative Agent (or its Servicer) has notified Clearing Bank of the existence of a Cash Management Event, from and after which time (until Administrative Agent (or its Servicer) has notified Clearing Bank that no Cash Management Event exists), on each Business Day all such funds shall be transferred to the Cash Management Account (or as otherwise directed by Administrative Agent or its Servicer). So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing (and thereafter at Administrative Agent's sole option and discretion) funds on deposit in the Cash Management Account (other than any (y) Revenues paid more than one (1) month in advance ("Prepaid Revenues"), which shall be retained in the Cash Management Account until payment thereof is due under the applicable Lease, and (z) Extraordinary Lease Payments, which shall be held and disbursed in accordance with Section 3.2(e) below), shall be applied on each Payment Date in the following amounts and order of priority:
LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 50



(a)    First, to the Tax Reserve Account the amount required pursuant to Section 3.2(a) hereof;
(b)    Second, to the Insurance Reserve Account the amount required pursuant to Section 3.2(b) hereof;
(c)    Third, to (or as directed by) Administrative Agent the Monthly Payment Amount;
(d)    Fourth, to the other Reserve Accounts the amounts required pursuant to the applicable clauses in Section 3.2 hereof;
(e)    Fifth, to Administrative Agent to pay any other amounts then due Administrative Agent and/or Lenders under the Loan Documents;
(f)    Sixth, to Borrower for payments of monthly Operating Expenses in the amount described in the Approved Annual Budget for the month in which such Payment Date occurs (less the amount of any Excess Disbursement received by Borrower for any prior Payment Date that has not already been deducted pursuant to this clause (f), the amount of which Excess Disbursement (if any) shall be certified to Administrative Agent in writing by Borrower) (provided, however, at Administrative Agent's discretion, Administrative Agent shall reduce the amount to be disbursed to Borrower pursuant to this clause (f) by the amount that Borrower demonstrates to Administrative Agent's satisfaction that Borrower has paid (or will pay) from its own funds toward the payment of such monthly Operating Expenses up the amount then payable to Mezzanine Loan Administrative Agent pursuant to clause (g) below);
(g)    Seventh, to (or as directed by) Mezzanine Loan Administrative Agent the amount specified in the Mezzanine Loan Monthly Debt Service Notice Letter;
(h)    Eighth, to Borrower for payments of Operating Expenses and Capital Expenditures not set forth in the Approved Annual Budget that are approved by Administrative Agent and by Mezzanine Loan Administrative Agent pursuant to the Mezzanine Loan Documents, if any (less the amount of any Excess Disbursement received by Borrower for any prior Payment Date that has not already been deducted pursuant to clause (f) above or this clause (h), the amount of which Excess Disbursement (if any) shall be certified to Administrative Agent in writing by Borrower);
(i)    Ninth, (A) if a Cash Management Event exists other than one described in clause (d), (e) or (f) of the definition thereof, any amounts remaining in the Cash Management Account ("Excess Cash Flow") shall be held by Administrative Agent in a deposit account established by Administrative Agent from time to time ("Excess Cash Flow Reserve Account") as additional collateral for the Obligations, or (B) if a Cash Management Event described in clause (d) of the definition thereof exists (but no other Cash Management Event exists), all Excess Cash Flow shall be paid to or as directed by Mezzanine Loan Administrative Agent, (C) if a Cash Management Event described in clause (e) of the definition thereof exists (but no other Cash Management Event exists), all Excess Cash Flow shall be held by Administrative Agent in the Cash Sweep Tenant Reserve Account, or (D) if a Cash Management Event described in clause (f) of the definition thereof exists (but no other Cash Management Event exists), all Excess Cash Flow shall be held by Administrative Agent in the Key Tenant Reserve Account. So long as no Event of Default then exists, Administrative Agent shall disburse to Borrower (or, if Administrative Agent has been notified of the existence of a Mezzanine Loan Event of Default, to Mezzanine Loan Administrative Agent) any funds held by Administrative Agent in the Excess Cash Flow Reserve Account on the Payment Date next following the end of the applicable Cash Management Event.
LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 51



Section 3.2.     Required Deposits.
(a)    Tax Reserve Account. Borrower shall (i) on the Closing Date, deposit with Administrative Agent the applicable amount shown on Administrative Agent's settlement statement (if any), and (ii) on each Payment Date commencing with the Payment Date in October, 2018 deposit with Administrative Agent the amount that Administrative Agent estimates will be necessary in order to accumulate (together with the initial deposit made on the Closing Date and projected monthly deposits thereafter) sufficient funds to pay, at least thirty (30) days prior to their respective due dates, all Property Taxes due within the ensuing twelve (12) months. Such amounts will be held in a deposit account established by Administrative Agent from time to time (the "Tax Reserve Account"). Provided no Event of Default shall then exist, Administrative Agent will apply the funds in the Tax Reserve Account to payments of the Property Taxes for which such funds have been reserved. In making any such payment, Administrative Agent may do so according to any bill, statement or estimate procured from the appropriate public office without inquiry into the accuracy thereof. If Administrative Agent so elects at any time, Borrower shall provide, at Borrower's expense, a tax service contract for the term of the Loan issued by a tax reporting agency acceptable to Administrative Agent. If Administrative Agent does not so elect, Borrower shall reimburse Administrative Agent for the cost of making annual tax searches throughout the term of the Loan.

There has been no material adverse change in any condition, fact, circumstance or event that would make any such information inaccurate, incomplete or otherwise misleading in any material respect or that would be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect. Borrower has disclosed to Administrative Agent all material facts that would cause any information provided to Administrative Agent or any representation or warranty made in any of the Loan Documents concerning Borrower, any Required SPE Entity, Guarantor, Manager, or the Property, to be materially misleading.

All consents, approvals, orders or authorizations of, or registrations, declarations or filings with, or other actions in respect of or by, any Governmental Authorities that are required in connection with the execution, delivery and performance by Borrower of the Project Documents and all other agreements and instruments to be executed by Borrower in connection therewith and the construction and operation of the Project have been obtained or will be obtained when required for the then applicable stage of completion of the Project and are or will be in full force and effect.
(b)    Borrower has delivered to Administrative Agent true, correct, and complete copies of all Project Documents.

The Property currently and, upon completion of the Project substantially in accordance with the Plans and Specifications, the use thereof will be in all material respects in compliance with all Project Permits then required and all other applicable Legal Requirements, and such compliance is not dependent on any land, improvements or facilities that are not a part of the Property. There are no pending, or to Borrower's knowledge, threatened actions, suits or proceedings to revoke, attach, invalidate, rescind or modify the zoning applicable to the Property or any part thereof or any of the Project Permits, as currently existing.
(e)    As of the Closing Date and as of each date on which this representation is deemed remade, the Project Budget (as the same may be amended from time to time in accordance with this Agreement) accurately reflects Borrower's good faith estimate of all anticipated Hard Costs, Soft Costs, and any other costs and expenses reasonably anticipated to be incurred in connection with the Completion of the Project.

BORROWER COVENANTS
Section 5.1.     Affirmative Covenants. From the date hereof and until payment and performance in full of all Obligations in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, Borrower hereby covenants and agrees with Administrative Agent that it shall comply with the following:
5.1.1    Existence; Compliance with Legal Requirements. 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, franchises, and trade names required for the operation of the Property in the manner presently being conducted. Borrower shall comply with all Legal Requirements applicable to it and the Property (subject to Borrower's right to contest the applicability of any such Legal Requirement in accordance with Section 5.1.2 below).
5.1.2    Taxes, Other Charges, and Liens; Contests. Borrower shall pay all Property Taxes, liens, assessments, maintenance charges, and any other charges (including vault charges and license fees for the use of vaults, chutes and similar areas adjoining the Property) now or hereafter levied or assessed or imposed against the Property or any part thereof prior to the delinquency thereof. Borrower will deliver to Administrative Agent receipts for payment or other evidence satisfactory to Administrative Agent that the Property Taxes and such other charges have been so paid no later than ten (10) days prior to the date on which the same would otherwise be delinquent if not paid. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower's obligation to directly pay Property Taxes for which Administrative Agent is reserving funds pursuant to Section 3.2(a) hereof (and to provide evidence of the same) shall be suspended for so long as Borrower complies with the terms and provisions of said Section 3.2(a). Borrower, at its own expense, may contest (after prior written notice to Administrative Agent) by appropriate legal proceeding, promptly initiated and conducted in good faith and with reasonable diligence, the amount or validity or application in whole or in part of any Property Taxes or any lien or other charge on the Property, and/or the applicability of any Legal Requirement, provided that: (a) such proceeding shall be permitted under and be conducted in accordance with the provisions of any other instrument to which Borrower, the Property or any collateral for the Loan, as applicable, is subject and shall not constitute a default thereunder, and such proceeding shall be conducted in accordance with all applicable statutes, laws and ordinances; (b) neither the Property nor any part thereof or interest therein will be in danger of being sold, forfeited, terminated, cancelled or lost; (c) Borrower shall promptly, upon final non-appealable determination thereof, pay the amount of any such contested matter (together with all costs, interest and penalties which may be payable in connection therewith) and/or comply with such contested Legal Requirement; and (d) such proceeding shall suspend the collection of such contested matter (unless Borrower shall have paid all such amounts so demanded under protest), and with respect to liens, Borrower shall have caused any such lien to be discharged (by bonding or otherwise) within thirty (30) days (or sooner if required to avoid a forfeiture of the Property) of the filing thereof, or Borrower shall furnish such security as may be requested by Administrative Agent (not to exceed one hundred ten percent (110%) of the amount of such lien being contested), to insure the payment of any such contested matter, together with all interest and penalties thereon (and Administrative Agent may pay over any such security to the claimant
LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 64



entitled thereto at any time when, in the judgment of Administrative Agent, the entitlement of such claimant is established or the Property (or any part thereof or interest therein) shall be in danger of being sold, forfeited, terminated, cancelled or lost, or there shall be any danger of the lien of the Security Instrument being primed by any related lien).
5.1.3    Access to Property. Borrower shall permit agents, representatives and employees of Administrative Agent to inspect the Property or any part thereof at reasonable hours upon reasonable advance notice (and subject to the rights of tenants under Leases). Borrower agrees to pay or reimburse Administrative Agent within ten (10) Business Days after written demand for all out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Administrative Agent in connection with the inspections described in this Section 5.1.3; provided, however, Borrower shall not be required to pay for the cost of more than one (1) such inspection in any twelve (12) month period unless (a) an Event of Default exists, (b) Borrower has undertaken capital improvements with respect to the Property, or (c) Administrative Agent has a reasonable basis to believe that the Property has been damaged in any material respect, in which case with respect to any of the foregoing circumstances, the foregoing limitation shall not apply.
5.1.4    Interest Rate Cap Agreement.
(a)    On the date hereof, Borrower shall obtain an agreement from (or guaranteed by) an Acceptable Counterparty, which agreement (an "Interest Rate Cap Agreement") shall (i) be in the form and substance satisfactory to Administrative Agent, (ii) contain the agreement of such counterparty to make payments to Borrower in the event the applicable Index exceeds the applicable Strike Rate, (iii) require payments based on a notional amount at least equal to the Loan Amount, (iv) not terminate prior to the Payment Date in September, 2020, (v) require payments to be made on the date that is three (3) Business Days prior to the applicable Payment Date, and (vi) contain a one-time right to reallocate notional amounts between the Interest Rate Cap Agreement obtained in connection with the Loan and the Interest Rate Cap Agreement obtained in connection with the Mezzanine Loan at no cost to Administrative Agent or any Lender. Borrower shall not waive or amend any of the material terms of any such required Interest Rate Cap Agreement. In addition, not later than the date that is sixty (60) days prior to the date on which the Interest Rate Cap Agreement obtained by Borrower pursuant to the preceding sentence is scheduled to expire, Borrower shall obtain an Interest Rate Cap Agreement that complies with the foregoing requirements, except that it shall not terminate prior to the Scheduled Maturity Date.
(b)    In the event of any downgrade or withdrawal of the rating of an Acceptable Counterparty below "A-" by S&P or "A3" from Moody's (or such other lower rating levels as are acceptable to Administrative Agent), or in the event of any default by an Acceptable Counterparty under an Interest Rate Cap Agreement required hereunder, Borrower shall, not later than thirty (30) days following the receipt by Borrower of notice of such downgrade, withdrawal, or default (whether received from Administrative Agent, the Acceptable Counterparty, or otherwise) (or such later period with respect to the following clause (ii) if such Acceptable Counterparty has a longer period of time to provide such collateral) either (i) replace such Interest Rate Cap Agreement with an Interest Rate Cap Agreement satisfying the requirements of clause (a) above, (ii) provide a guaranty from a guarantor who is an Acceptable Counterparty, or (iii) to the extent required of such Acceptable Counterparty in such Interest Rate Cap Agreement, cause the Acceptable Counterparty to deliver cash collateral to secure 100% of the mark-to-market value of Borrower's exposure under such Interest Rate Cap Agreement; provided, however, notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Acceptable Counterparty ceases to have a long term rating of at least "BBB" or "Baa2" by S&P and Moody's respectively, then Borrower shall replace the Interest Rate Cap Agreement with an Interest Rate Cap Agreement satisfying the requirements in clause (a) above, not later than fifteen (15) days following the receipt by
LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 65



Borrower of notice of such downgrade (whether received from Administrative Agent, the Acceptable Counterparty, or otherwise).
(c)    Borrower shall collaterally assign any such required Interest Rate Cap Agreement to Administrative Agent, and shall cause the counterparty to such Interest Rate Cap Agreement to consent to such collateral assignment and deliver an opinion of counsel regarding the enforceability of the Interest Rate Cap Agreement, in each case in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent.
5.1.5    Further Assurances. Borrower shall, at Borrower's sole cost and expense, (a) furnish to Administrative Agent all information with respect to the Property in Borrower's possession or control promptly upon Administrative Agent's request therefor; (b) execute and deliver to Administrative Agent such documents, instruments, certificates, assignments and other writings, and do such other acts reasonably necessary or desirable, to evidence, preserve and/or protect the collateral at any time securing or intended to secure the Obligations under the Loan Documents, and to establish, maintain, and perfect Administrative Agent's security interest therein free of all other liens and security interests (other than Permitted Encumbrances); and (c) do and execute all and such further lawful acts, conveyances and assurances for the better and more effective carrying out of the intents and purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, in each case as Administrative Agent shall require from time to time. Borrower authorizes Administrative Agent, at the expense of Borrower, to file any financing statement or statements (and amendments thereto and continuations thereof) deemed necessary or desirable by Administrative Agent in good faith to perfect its security interest in any of the collateral for the Loan (including an "all assets" financing statement within the meaning of the UCC). Borrower hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints Administrative Agent as Borrower's true and lawful attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest and with full power of substitution, to execute, acknowledge and deliver any instruments and to exercise and enforce every right, power, remedy, option and privilege of Borrower with respect to the collateral for the Loan, and do in the name, place and stead of Borrower, all such acts, things and deeds for and on behalf of and in the name of Borrower, which Borrower is required to do under the Loan Documents or which Administrative Agent may deem necessary or desirable to more fully vest in Administrative Agent the rights and remedies provided for in the Loan Documents and to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, including any amendment to the Loan Documents which may be required hereunder, in each case upon Borrower's failure to take any of the foregoing actions or any other applicable action required under the Loan Documents within five (5) Business Days after notice from Administrative Agent. The foregoing powers of attorney are irrevocable and coupled with an interest.
5.1.6    Reporting.
(a)    Borrower will keep and maintain or will cause to be kept and maintained on a fiscal year basis (commencing January 1 of each year), in accordance with the Approved Accounting Method, proper and accurate books, records and accounts reflecting all of the financial affairs of Borrower. Borrower will furnish to Administrative Agent the reports described on Schedule VII attached hereto not later than the applicable date set forth opposite such required report, accompanied by an Officer's Certificate with respect thereto.
(b)    Not later than forty-five (45) days prior to the commencement of each fiscal year, Borrower shall submit to Administrative Agent its proposed annual budget for the Property detailing all anticipated operating expenses, operating income, and planned Capital Expenditures for the Property for the ensuing fiscal year in form satisfactory to Administrative Agent. Such proposed budget shall be subject to Administrative Agent's written approval (when so approved, an "Approved Annual Budget"), which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. Until such time that Administrative Agent approves a proposed budget, the most recently Approved Annual
LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 66



Budget shall apply; provided, however, that such Approved Annual Budget shall be deemed adjusted to reflect actual increases in Property Taxes, Insurance Premiums and utilities expenses. The approved Annual Budget for the remainder of calendar year 2018 is attached hereto as Exhibit C.
(c)    Any reports, statements or other information required to be delivered under this Agreement shall be provided to Administrative Agent as an electronic Excel file and as a .pdf file (or otherwise in a form reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent), in English, and shall be delivered electronically unless Administrative Agent requests that the same be delivered in paper form, and accompanied by a certificate of Borrower stating that such information is accurate and complete in all material respects and does not intentionally omit a material fact necessary in order to make the same not misleading in any material respect. Borrower agrees that Administrative Agent and Lender may disclose all documents, materials, and information regarding the Property, Borrower, Guarantor, their constituent direct and indirect owners, and/or the Loan that is now or hereafter becomes in Administrative Agent's or Lender's possession and/or is or may be provided to Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 5.1.6 and/or pursuant to Article VII hereof to any applicable parties requesting such information in connection with a Secondary Market Transaction (including each actual or potential purchaser, transferee, assignee, servicer, participant or investor in the Loan or in any Securities, any Rating Agency, any organization maintaining databases on the underwriting and performance of commercial loans, trustees, counsel, and accountants). Administrative Agent shall have the right from time to time at all times during normal business hours upon reasonable prior notice (which may be given verbally) to examine such books, records and accounts at the office of Borrower or any other Person maintaining such books, records and accounts and to make such copies or extracts thereof as Administrative Agent shall desire.
(d)    If any report, statement or other information required to be delivered to Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 5.1.6 (a "Required Report") is not timely delivered (and without limiting the terms and conditions of Article 6 hereof), Borrower shall promptly pay to Administrative Agent, as a late charge, (i) the sum of $250.00 with respect to any such Required Report not timely delivered; provided, however, with respect to the first such Required Report that is not timely delivered in any calendar year, such fee shall only be due if the Required Report is not delivered on or prior to the date that is ten (10) Business Days after the due date thereof; and (ii) if any such Required Report is not delivered within five (5) Business Days after written notice from Administrative Agent, the sum of $250.00 per day with respect to any such Required Report until the same is delivered. Borrower acknowledges that Administrative Agent and Lender will incur additional expenses as a result of any such late deliveries, which expenses would be impracticable to quantify, and that Borrower's payments under this Section 5.1.6(d) are a reasonable estimate of such expenses. Borrower acknowledges further that the payment by Borrower of this late charge does not in any manner affect or otherwise impair or waive any rights and remedies Administrative Agent and Lender may have hereunder, under the Loan Documents or under applicable Legal Requirements for any Event of Default.
5.1.7    Title to the Property. Borrower will warrant and defend (a) the title to the Property and every part thereof, and (b) the validity and priority of the lien of the applicable Loan Documents, in each case against the claims of all Persons (subject only to the Permitted Encumbrances).
5.1.8    Estoppel Statements. After request by Administrative Agent, Borrower shall within ten (10) Business Days furnish Administrative Agent with a statement, duly acknowledged and certified, setting forth (i) the original principal amount of the Loan, (ii) the Outstanding Principal Balance, (iii) the Interest Rate of the Note, (iv) the date installments of interest and/or principal were last paid, (v) any offsets or defenses to the payment of the Debt or
LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 67



the performance of the Obligations, if any, (vi) that the Note, this Agreement, the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents are valid, legal and binding obligations of such party and have not been modified or if modified, giving particulars of such modification and such other things as Administrative Agent may request, and (vii) such other matters as Administrative Agent may reasonably require. Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver to Administrative Agent, promptly after Administrative Agent's written request, tenant estoppel certificates from each commercial tenant leasing space at the Property in form and substance satisfactory to Administrative Agent, provided, however, that Borrower shall not be required to deliver such certificates more frequently than one (1) time in any calendar year, absent the continuance of an Event of Default.
5.1.9    Operation of the Property. Borrower shall cause the Property to be maintained in a good and safe condition and repair in all material respects, and at all times keep the Property in good working order and repair (subject to ordinary wear and tear and casualty damage). Borrower shall cause the Property to be operated, in all material respects, in accordance with the Management Agreement. If the Management Agreement expires or is terminated (without limiting any obligation of Borrower to obtain Administrative Agent's consent to any termination or modification of the Management Agreement in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement), Borrower shall promptly enter into a Management Agreement in form and content reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent with a Manager approved by Administrative Agent. Borrower shall: (a) promptly perform and/or observe, in all material respects, all of the covenants and agreements required to be performed and observed by it under the Management Agreement and do all things necessary to preserve and to keep unimpaired its material rights thereunder; (b) promptly notify Administrative Agent of any material default under the Management Agreement of which it is aware; (c) promptly deliver to Administrative Agent a copy of each financial statement, business plan, capital expenditures plan, notice, report and estimate received by it under the Management Agreement; and (d) enforce the performance and observance of all of the covenants and agreements required to be performed and/or observed by Manager under the Management Agreement, in a commercially reasonable manner. If (i) an Event of Default exists, (ii) the Manager shall become the subject of a Bankruptcy Action, (iii) a default occurs under the Management Agreement on the part of either Borrower or Manager, beyond any applicable grace and cure periods, (iv) Administrative Agent determines that the Debt Service Coverage Ratio is less than 1.05:1.00 for any two (2) consecutive calendar quarters, or (v) Manager shall commit gross negligence, fraud, illegal acts, or willful misconduct, Borrower shall, at the request of Administrative Agent, terminate the Management Agreement and replace Manager with a Manager approved by Administrative Agent.
5.1.10    Immediate Repairs. Borrower shall complete the Immediate Repairs on or before the required deadline for each as set forth on Schedule I (which deadlines shall be extended on a day-for-day basis for each day during which performance of such obligations was prevented on account of an event or circumstance constituting a Force Majeure; provided, however, in no event shall such deadlines be extended for a period longer than sixty (60) days in the aggregate). At Administrative Agent's option, it shall be an Event of Default (if Administrative Agent so notifies Borrower in writing) if Borrower does not complete the Immediate Repairs by such required deadline (as extended as provided above).
5.1.11    Insurance. Borrower shall obtain and maintain, or cause to be maintained, insurance for Borrower and the Property providing at least the coverages described on Schedule VI attached hereto (each, a "Required Policy"). Borrower shall provide complete copies of the Required Policies to Administrative Agent promptly upon Administrative Agent's request. Borrower shall be permitted to obtain the Required Policies under a "blanket" insurance policy so long as such policy specifically allocates to the Property the amount of coverage from time to time required hereunder and otherwise provides the same protection as would a separate policy insuring only the Property in compliance with the provisions of this Section 5.1.11. If at
LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 68



any time all Required Policies are not in full force and effect, Administrative Agent shall have the right, without notice to Borrower, to take such action as Administrative Agent deems necessary to protect its interest in the Property, including the obtaining of such insurance coverage as Administrative Agent in its sole discretion deems appropriate. All premiums incurred by Administrative Agent in connection with such action or in obtaining such insurance and keeping it in effect shall be paid by Borrower to Administrative Agent within ten (10) Business Days after written demand and, until paid, shall be secured by the Security Instrument and shall bear interest at the Default Rate. Borrower shall promptly forward to Administrative Agent a copy of each written notice received by Borrower of any modification, reduction or cancellation of any of the Required Policies or of any of the coverages afforded under any of the Required Policies.
5.1.12    Casualty and Condemnation.
(a)    If the Property shall be damaged or destroyed, in whole or in part, by fire or other casualty (a "Casualty"), or any temporary or permanent taking of (or affecting) the Property by any Governmental Authority pursuant to the exercise of the right of condemnation or eminent domain (a "Condemnation") shall occur, be commenced or be threatened in writing, Borrower shall (i) give prompt notice of the same to Administrative Agent (and deliver to Administrative Agent copies of any and all papers served in connection with any Condemnation proceeding), and (ii) diligently prosecute a Restoration so that the Property resembles, as nearly as possible, the condition the Property was in immediately prior to such event, and (iii) pay all costs of such Restoration whether or not such costs are covered by insurance. Administrative Agent may participate in any settlement discussions with any insurance companies concerning a Casualty, and any settlement discussions with any Governmental Authority with respect to a Condemnation (and shall have the right to approve any final settlement with respect to either) with respect to any Casualty or Condemnation in which the Net Proceeds or the costs of completing the Restoration are reasonably expected to exceed the Net Proceeds Threshold. Borrower shall execute and deliver to Administrative Agent all instruments required by Administrative Agent to permit such participation. Borrower shall cooperate with Administrative Agent in obtaining for Administrative Agent and Lender the benefits of any condemnation proceeds or insurance proceeds lawfully or equitably payable in connection with the Property, and Administrative Agent and Lender shall be reimbursed by Borrower for any expenses incurred in connection therewith (including reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements, and the payment by Borrower of the expense of an appraisal on behalf of Administrative Agent in case of Casualty or Condemnation affecting the Property or any part thereof) from such condemnation proceeds or insurance proceeds, as applicable.
(b)    All proceeds or awards payable in connection with any Casualty or Condemnation shall be due and payable solely to Administrative Agent and shall be held by Administrative Agent in a deposit account established by Administrative Agent from time to time (the "Net Proceeds Reserve Account") as additional collateral for the Obligations, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. In the event Borrower or any party other than Administrative Agent is a payee on any check representing such proceeds or awards, Borrower shall immediately endorse (and cause all such third parties to endorse) such check payable to the order of Administrative Agent. Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Administrative Agent as its attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest, to endorse any such check payable to the order of Administrative Agent in the event Borrower has not done so within five (5) days after Administrative Agent's demand therefor. The expenses incurred by Administrative Agent and Lender in the adjustment and collection of such proceeds or awards shall become part of the Debt and shall be reimbursed by Borrower to Administrative Agent within five (5) days after Administrative Agent's written demand. Borrower hereby releases Administrative Agent from any and all liability with respect to the settlement and adjustment by Administrative Agent of any claims in respect of any Casualty or Condemnation unless caused by Administrative Agent's

gross negligence or willful misconduct. If the Net Proceeds shall be less than the Net Proceeds Threshold and the costs of completing Restoration shall be less than the Net Proceeds Threshold, the Net Proceeds will be disbursed by Administrative Agent to Borrower upon receipt, provided that no Event of Default then exists and Borrower delivers to Administrative Agent a written undertaking to expeditiously commence and to satisfactorily complete with due diligence the Restoration of the Property (if applicable) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. If the Net Proceeds are equal to or greater than the Net Proceeds Threshold or the costs of completing Restoration is equal to or greater than the Net Proceeds Threshold, Borrower shall not be permitted to use the Net Proceeds for a Restoration (or to retain Net Proceeds in the event no Restoration is required) unless the following conditions are satisfied:
(i)    no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing;
(ii)    (A) in the event the Net Proceeds are insurance proceeds, less than thirty percent (30%) of the total floor area of the Improvements on the Property has been damaged, destroyed or rendered unusable as a result of such Casualty, or (B) in the event the Net Proceeds are Condemnation proceeds, less than fifteen percent (15%) of the land constituting the Property is taken, and such land is located along the perimeter or periphery of the Property, and no portion of the Improvements on the Property is located on such land or is being taken;
(iii)    Leases demising in the aggregate at least seventy-five percent (75%) of the total rentable space in the Property which has been demised under executed and delivered Leases in effect as of the date of the occurrence of such Casualty or Condemnation shall remain in full force and effect during and after the completion of the Restoration, without abatement of rent beyond the time required for Restoration, notwithstanding the occurrence of any such Casualty or Condemnation;
(iv)    Administrative Agent shall have determined in good faith that the proceeds of any applicable business interruption insurance (together with any projected Revenues and any additional funds to be deposited with Administrative Agent for such purposes) are sufficient to pay all Debt Service coming due under the Loan Documents and all Operating Expenses through the end of the Restoration;
(v)    Administrative Agent shall have determined in good faith that the Restoration will be completed on or before the earliest to occur of (A) six (6) months prior to the Maturity Date, (B) the earliest date required for such completion under the terms of any Major Leases, (C) such time as may be required under applicable Legal Requirements, and (D) the expiration of any applicable business interruption insurance coverage (unless, with respect to this clause (D), Borrower provides to Administrative Agent its own funds upon the expiration of such coverage to keep operating deficits current (including all scheduled payments of Debt Service));
(vi)    the Property and the use thereof after the Restoration will be in compliance with and permitted under all applicable Legal Requirements;
(vii)    such Casualty or Condemnation, as applicable, does not result in the total loss of access to the Property or the related Improvements;
(viii)    Administrative Agent shall have determined that, after giving effect to the Restoration, the Debt Yield shall be equal to or greater than the lesser of (a) 10.5% and (b) Debt Yield in effect immediately prior to the applicable Casualty or Condemnation (including, without limitation for purposes of such calculation of the Debt Yield, any Additional Advances that Borrower remains eligible to receive pursuant to this Agreement and any Mezzanine Loan Additional Advances that Mezzanine Borrower remains eligible to receive pursuant to the Mezzanine Loan Agreement);
LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 70



(ix)    intentionally omitted;
(x)    Administrative Agent shall have determined that, after giving effect to the Restoration, the ratio (expressed as a percentage) in which the numerator is the Outstanding Principal Balance plus the Mezzanine Loan Outstanding Principal Balance, plus any Additional Advances that Borrower remains eligible to receive pursuant to this Agreement and any Mezzanine Loan Additional Advances that Mezzanine Borrower remains eligible to receive pursuant to the Mezzanine Loan Agreement, and the denominator is equal to the appraised value of the Property (as reasonably determined by Administrative Agent) and based upon assumptions reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent, and otherwise acceptable to Administrative Agent in its sole discretion, shall not be greater than such ratio in effect immediately prior to the applicable Casualty or Condemnation;
(xi)    Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent a detailed budget for the cost of completing the Restoration, which budget shall be subject to Administrative Agent's approval, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld; and
(xii)    the Net Proceeds together with any cash or cash equivalent deposited by Borrower with Administrative Agent are sufficient in Administrative Agent's discretion to cover the cost of Restoration.
(c)    All Net Proceeds received by Administrative Agent and not disbursed to Borrower shall be held by Administrative Agent in the Net Proceeds Reserve Account and shall be applied (i) to the repayment of Debt if Administrative Agent so elects and is not required to allow Borrower to use the same as provided in Section 5.1.12(b) above, or (ii) toward the cost of Restoration to the extent so required pursuant to Section 5.1.12(b) above; provided, however, that nothing herein contained shall be deemed to relieve Borrower of its obligations to pay the Debt on the respective dates of payment provided for, or perform the Obligations as required under, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, except to the extent such amounts are actually paid out of such Net Proceeds. If the conditions described in Section 5.1.12(b) have been satisfied, Borrower shall commence any applicable Restoration as soon as reasonably practicable (but in no event later than ninety (90) days after Administrative Agent has informed Borrower as to whether such conditions have been satisfied) and shall complete the same in an expeditious and diligent fashion and in compliance with all applicable Legal Requirements in all material respects. If such conditions have not been satisfied, Borrower shall not be deemed to be in Default hereunder for failing to diligently pursue a Restoration for a period of ninety (90) days thereafter so long as the Debt is repaid in full within such 90-day period (provided that the foregoing shall not be deemed a waiver of any other Default or Event of Default that may occur during such 90-day period).
(d)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, all insurance proceeds received by Borrower or Administrative Agent in respect of business interruption coverage shall be held by Administrative Agent in the Net Proceeds Reserve Account and, so long as no Event of Default then exists, shall be applied (i) first to the Debt then due and payable and the Debt under (and as defined in) the Mezzanine Loan Agreement that is then due and payable, and (ii) then to Operating Expenses approved by Administrative Agent in its sole but reasonable discretion; provided, however, that nothing herein contained shall be deemed to relieve Borrower of its obligations to pay the Debt on the respective dates of payment provided for, or perform its Obligations as required under, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
(e)    Funds in the Net Proceeds Reserve Account shall be disbursed by Administrative Agent to pay the costs of the Restoration, to, or as directed by, Borrower from time to time during the course of the Restoration, upon receipt of evidence satisfactory to Administrative Agent that (i) all materials installed and work and labor performed (except to the extent that they
LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 71



are to be paid for out of the requested disbursement) in connection with the Restoration have been paid for in full, and (ii) there exist no notices of pendency, stop orders, mechanic's or materialman's liens or notices of intention to file same (other than notices related to any retainage that is not yet due and payable per any applicable construction contract), or any other liens or encumbrances of any nature whatsoever on the Property which have not been fully bonded or insured to the satisfaction of Administrative Agent. All plans and specifications required in connection with Restoration shall be subject to prior review and acceptance in all respects by Administrative Agent and by an independent consulting engineer selected by Administrative Agent, in each cash such acceptance not to be unreasonably withheld. The identity of the contractors, subcontractors and materialmen engaged in Restoration, as well as the contracts under which they have been engaged, shall be subject to prior review and approval by Administrative Agent, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld. All out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Administrative Agent in connection with making the Net Proceeds available for Restoration shall be paid by Borrower. In no event shall Administrative 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 Restoration, minus an amount equal to ten percent (10%) (or such higher amount actually held back by Borrower from contractors, subcontractors and materialmen engaged in Restoration) of the direct construction "hard" costs actually incurred for work in place as part of Restoration, until Restoration has been completed. Such retained amount shall not be released until Administrative Agent has determined in good faith that Restoration has been completed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5.1.12(e) and that all approvals necessary for the re-occupancy and use of the Property have been obtained from all appropriate Governmental Authorities, and Administrative Agent receives evidence satisfactory to Administrative Agent that the costs of Restoration have been paid in full or will be paid in full out of such retained amount; provided, however, that Administrative Agent will release the portion of such retained amount being held with respect to any Person upon Administrative Agent determining that such Person has satisfactorily completed all work and/or has supplied all materials required of such Person and such Person has waived any right to lien the Property. Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to make disbursements of the Net Proceeds more frequently than once every calendar month.
(f)    If at any time the Net Proceeds or the undisbursed balance thereof shall not, in the good faith opinion of Administrative Agent, be sufficient to pay in full the balance of the costs which are estimated in good faith by Administrative Agent to be incurred in connection with the completion of the Restoration, Borrower shall deposit the deficiency with Administrative Agent before any further disbursement of the Net Proceeds shall be made, and such sums shall be held by Administrative Agent and shall be disbursed for costs actually incurred in connection with Restoration on the same conditions applicable to the disbursement of the Net Proceeds, and until so disbursed pursuant to Section 5.1.12(e) shall constitute additional security for the Debt and the Obligations.
(g)    The excess, if any, of the funds in the Net Proceeds Reserve Account after Administrative Agent has determined that the Restoration has been completed in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.1.12(e), and the receipt by Administrative Agent of evidence satisfactory to Administrative Agent that all costs incurred in connection with the Restoration have been paid in full, shall be applied in the same manner as Revenues are applied pursuant to Section 3.1 hereof (or if not applicable, first shall be disbursed to Mezzanine Loan Administrative Agent for application in accordance with the Mezzanine Loan Documents if the Mezzanine Loan is outstanding, and then shall be disbursed to Borrower so long as no Event of Default then exists).
(h)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, if the Loan or any portion thereof is included in a Securitization and, immediately following a release of any portion of the Property following a Casualty or Condemnation, the ratio of the unpaid principal
LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 72



balance of the Loan to the value of the remaining Property is greater than 125% (such value to be determined, in Administrative Agent's sole discretion), Administrative Agent shall not be required to release any Net Proceeds for Restoration of the Property, and the principal balance of the Loan must be paid down by Borrower by the greater of (i) such amount as may be required such that the Securitization will not fail to maintain its status as a "real estate mortgage investment conduit" within the meaning of Section 860D of the Code as a result of the related release of lien, and (ii) the least of the following amounts: (A) the Net Proceeds, (B) the fair market value of the portion of the Property released following such Casualty or Condemnation at the time of the release, and (C) an amount such that the loan-to-value ratio of the Loan (as so determined by Administrative Agent) does not increase after the release, unless Administrative Agent receives an opinion of counsel that a different application of the Net Proceeds will not cause the Securitization to fail to meet applicable federal income tax qualification requirements or subject such Securitization to tax. All other Net Proceeds not required to be made available for Restoration or to be returned to Borrower as excess Net Proceeds pursuant to this Section 5.1.12 hereof shall be either retained and applied by Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 2.3.5 hereof toward reduction of the Debt whether or not then due and payable in such order, priority and proportions as Administrative Agent in its sole discretion shall deem proper, or, at the discretion of Administrative Agent, the same may be paid, either in whole or in part, to Borrower for such purposes as Administrative Agent shall approve, in its discretion.
5.1.13    The Project. Borrower shall complete the Project on or before the Payment Date in September, 2020 (which date shall be extended on a day-for-day basis for each day during which performance of such obligations was prevented on account of an event or circumstance constituting a Force Majeure, but in any event not past the Payment Date in December, 2020). At Administrative Agent's option, it shall be an Event of Default (if Administrative Agent so notifies Borrower in writing) if Borrower does not complete such work in accordance with all Administrative Agent-approved plans and specifications by such required deadline. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that Administrative Agent may retain a construction consultant and other consultants deemed necessary or desirable by Administrative Agent, at Borrower's expense, to make periodic inspections of the Property and to review all change orders relating to the Project. Administrative Agent may request such consultants before making any Additional Advance to inspect all work and materials for which payment is requested and all other work upon the Property and/or submit to Administrative Agent a progress inspection report. Administrative Agent may also retain such other consultants as Administrative Agent deems necessary or convenient to perform such services as may, from time to time, be required by Administrative Agent in connection with the Loan, this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or the Property. Borrower agrees to bear and shall pay or reimburse Administrative Agent on demand for all costs and expenses incurred by Administrative Agent in connection with the matters described in this Section 5.1.13 (subject to the limitation, if any, set forth in Section 2.1(b) with respect to the making of Additional Advances). Borrower further acknowledges and agrees that neither Borrower nor any third party shall have the right to use or rely upon the reports of Administrative Agent's consultants or any other reports generated by Administrative Agent or its consultants for any purpose whatsoever, whether made prior to or after commencement of construction. Borrower shall be responsible for making its own inspections of the Property during the course of construction and shall determine to its own satisfaction that the work done and materials supplied are in accordance with applicable contracts with its contractors. By advancing funds after any inspection of the Property by Administrative Agent or its consultants, Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to waive any Event of Default, waive any right to require construction defects or any other work to be corrected, or acknowledge that all construction conforms to the Administrative Agent-approved plans and specifications. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in the event that Administrative Agent should determine that the actual quality or value of the work performed or the materials furnished does not correspond with the quality or value of the work required by the Administrative Agent-approved plans and specifications, upon Administrative
LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 73



Agent's demand Borrower shall immediately correct the conditions to which Administrative Agent objects.
5.1.14    Required Equity. Borrower shall contribute and invest in the Property required cash equity in an amount not less than $91,991,785.50 (the "Required Equity"), comprised of not less than $70,900,000.00 as of the Closing Date and $21,091,758.50 to be contributed from and after the Closing Date. Amounts contributed consisting of Borrower's 60% share of budgeted Project Expenditures contributed pursuant to Section 2.1(b)(ix) hereof shall be counted as contributions of Required Equity. In addition, Borrower shall contribute and deposit with Administrative Agent (to be held in the Elevator Modernization and Interiors Reserve Account and disbursed as provided in Section 3.2(k) hereof) the following amounts at the following times with respect to the remaining budgeted costs of the Elevator Modernization and Interiors Work (and such amounts shall be counted as contributions of Required Equity): (a) on the Payment Date in April, 2019, the sum of $810,919.50; and (b) on the Payment Date in October, 2019, the sum of $810,919.50; and (c) on the Payment Date in April, 2020, the sum of $810,919.50 (collectively, the "Additional Elevator Contributions"). No other payments by Borrower shall count as contributions of Required Equity, including, without limitation, any payments in connection with a Balancing Event or costs in excess of budgeted expenditures. During the existence of an Event of Default, notwithstanding the amount of Project Expenditures incurred to the date of any demand by Administrative Agent under this Section 5.1.14, Borrower will be required to deposit the balance of the Required Equity with Administrative Agent upon Administrative Agent's demand therefor.
5.1.15    Expenses; Indemnity.
(a)    Borrower covenants and agrees to pay or, if Borrower fails to pay, to reimburse, Administrative Agent upon receipt of written notice from Administrative Agent for all out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements) incurred by Administrative Agent or Lender in connection with (i) the preparation, negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and all the costs of furnishing all opinions by counsel for Borrower (including without limitation any opinions requested by Administrative Agent as to any legal matters arising under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents with respect to the Property); (ii) Borrower's ongoing performance of and compliance with Borrower's respective agreements and covenants contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents on its part to be performed or complied with after the Closing Date, including confirming compliance with environmental and insurance requirements and obtaining updated or new appraisals of the Property (provided, however, so long as no Event of Default exists, Borrower shall not be required to pay for more than one appraisal in any twelve (12) month period); (iii) Administrative Agent's and Lender's ongoing performance and compliance with all agreements and conditions contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents on its part to be performed or complied with after the Closing Date; (iv) the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and administration of any consents, amendments, waivers or other modifications to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other documents or matters requested by Borrower; (v) securing Borrower's compliance with any requests made pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; (vi) the filing and recording fees and expenses, title insurance and reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for providing to Administrative Agent all required legal opinions, and other similar expenses incurred in creating and perfecting the liens in favor of Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; (vii) enforcing or preserving any rights, either in response to third party claims or in prosecuting or defending any action or proceeding or other litigation, in each case against, under or affecting Borrower, Guarantor, this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Property, or any other security given for the Loan; and (viii) enforcing any Obligations of or collecting any payments due from Borrower under this Agreement, the other
LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 74



Loan Documents or with respect to the Property or in connection with any refinancing or restructuring of the credit arrangements provided under this Agreement in the nature of a "work-out" or of any insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings; provided, however, that Borrower shall not be liable for the payment of any such costs and expenses to the extent the same arise by reason of the gross negligence or illegal acts or willful misconduct of Administrative Agent.
(b)    Borrower shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Administrative Agent, any Lender, any Servicer, their respective Affiliates, and their respective directors, managers, officers, partners, members, shareholders, participants, employees, professionals and agents of any of the foregoing, and the successors and assigns of the foregoing (each, an "Indemnified Party"), from and against any and all Losses that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against an Indemnified Party in any manner relating to or arising out of (i) any Defaults or Events of Default under the Loan and/or in connection with the enforcement of the Loan Documents, (ii) any breach by Borrower of its Obligations under, or any misrepresentation by any Borrower Party contained in the Loan Documents, (iii) the use or intended use of the proceeds of the Loan, (iv) out-of-pocket costs incurred by Administrative Agent or Lender in connection with any amendment to, or restructuring of, the Debt or the Loan Documents, (v) any accident, injury to, or death of, Persons or loss of or damage to the Property occurring in, on or about the Property or any part thereof or on the adjoining sidewalks, curbs, adjacent property or adjacent parking areas, streets or rights of way, (vi) any use, non-use or condition in, on or about the Property or any part thereof or on the adjoining sidewalks, curbs, adjacent property or adjacent parking areas, streets or rights of way, (vii) performance of any labor or services or the furnishing of any materials or other property in respect of the Property or any part thereof, (viii) any failure of the Property to be in compliance with any Legal Requirements, (ix) any and all third-party claims and demands whatsoever which may be asserted against an Indemnified Party by reason of any alleged obligations or undertakings on its part to perform or discharge any of the terms, covenants, or agreements contained in any Lease or other agreement relating to the Property, and (x) all Recourse Liabilities; provided, however, that Borrower shall not have any obligation to an Indemnified Party hereunder to the extent that the applicable indemnified liabilities arise from the gross negligence or illegal acts or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party. To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify, defend and hold harmless set forth in the preceding sentence may be unenforceable because it violates any law or public policy, Borrower shall pay the maximum portion that it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable Legal Requirements to the payment and satisfaction of all such indemnified liabilities incurred by an Indemnified Party.
(c)    Upon written request by any Indemnified Party, Borrower shall defend such Indemnified Party (if requested by any Indemnified Party, in the name of the Indemnified Party) by attorneys and other professionals reasonably approved by the Indemnified Parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the defendants in any such claim or proceeding include both Borrower and any Indemnified Party and Borrower and such Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded that there are any legal defenses available to it and/or other Indemnified Parties that are different from or in addition to those available to Borrower, such Indemnified Party shall have the right to select separate counsel to assert such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such action on behalf of such Indemnified Party, provided that no compromise or settlement shall be entered without Borrower's consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Upon demand, Borrower shall pay or, in the sole and absolute discretion of the Indemnified Parties, reimburse, the Indemnified Parties for the payment of reasonable fees and disbursements of attorneys, engineers, environmental consultants, laboratories and other professionals in connection therewith.
(d)    The indemnifications made pursuant to this Section 5.1.15 shall continue indefinitely in full force and effect and shall survive and shall in no way be impaired by any of the following: (i) any satisfaction, release or other termination of this Agreement, the Security
LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 75



Instrument or any other Loan Document, (ii) any assignment or other transfer of all or any portion of this Agreement, the Security Instrument or any other Loan Document or Administrative Agent's or Lender's interest in the Property (but, in such case, such indemnifications shall benefit both the Indemnified Parties and any such assignee or transferee), (iii) any exercise of Administrative Agent's or Lender's rights and remedies pursuant hereto, under the Security Instrument or under any other Loan Document, including, but not limited to, foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure, (iv) any exercise of any rights and remedies pursuant to this Agreement, the Note or any of the other Loan Documents, (v) any transfer of all or any portion of the Property (whether by Borrower or by Administrative Agent or Lender following foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure or at any other time), (vi) any amendment to this Agreement, the Security Instrument, the Note or any other Loan Documents, and/or (vii) any act or omission that might otherwise be construed as a release or discharge of Borrower from the Obligations or any portion thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event will Borrower's indemnity under this Section 5.1.15 extend to events or occurrences Borrower proves in a nonappealable court of competent jurisdiction (or in an appealable court of competent jurisdiction if Administrative Agent irrevocably waives its right to an appeal thereof) first occurred after the date such Indemnified Parties took title to the Property, through a foreclosure, Administrative Agent's or Lender's acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise, so long as such Loss does not result from (i) any act or circumstance occurring prior to the date such Indemnified Parties took title to the Property through a foreclosure, Administrative Agent's or Lender's acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise (as applicable), or (ii) any act of Borrower or any of its agents, Affiliates or employees.
5.1.16    Post-Closing Obligations. Attached hereto as Schedule VIII is a list of specific requirements which must be satisfied by Borrower within the time period set forth opposite the description of such requirement. If said requirements are not satisfied within said time periods, the same shall constitute, at Administrative Agent's option, an Event of Default. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the Loan Documents are being executed at this time and the Loan is being disbursed without said requirements being satisfied on the express condition that such requirements be satisfied within the applicable time periods, and that the execution of the Loan Documents and funding of the Loan shall not constitute any waiver by Administrative Agent that such requirements have been met. For the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any obligation for which Borrower is required to use commercially reasonable efforts to satisfy the same pursuant to Schedule VIII, the mere failure to timely obtain the applicable post-closing item shall not result in an Event of Default so long as Borrower uses commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the same.
5.1.17    Sanctions; Anti-Money Laundering; Anti-Corruption. The Restricted Parties, their respective Affiliates, and to Borrower's knowledge, their agents and other Persons holding any direct or indirect ownership or beneficial interest in Borrower, shall comply with Sanctions and Anti-Money Laundering Laws and Anti-Corruption Laws and maintain in effect policies and procedures designed to promote and achieve compliance with applicable Sanctions and Anti-Money Laundering Laws and Anti-Corruption Laws.
5.1.18    Right of First Negotiation. Borrower shall, prior to discussing the proposed financing of the Hotel Improvements with any third party lender, afford Administrative Agent the right of first negotiation with respect to the terms upon which Lenders would be willing to provide additional financing for the Hotel Improvements (the "Right of First Negotiation"), subject to the following terms and conditions:
(a)    Borrower shall negotiate in good faith with Administrative Agent for a period of not less than thirty (30) days from and after the date that Borrower has presented Administrative Agent with all of the following items related to the Hotel Improvements: (i) a project budget;
LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 76



(ii) a project schedule; (iii) plans and specifications;  (iv) the name of the franchisor or hotel "flag" under which the proposed hotel would operate (together with any proposed terms upon which Borrower would operate under such franchise); and (v) any other documents and instruments with respect to the Hotel Improvements as reasonably requested by Administrative Agent;
(b)    The terms of any proposed financing would include the following requirements (among others):
(i)    The proposed hotel to be operated in the Hotel Component shall be under one of the following "flags": Hyatt, Hilton, Marriott or IHG;
(ii)    Highgate, or another strong regional or national hotel operator and/or manager, shall be engaged by Borrower to manage and operate the hotel within the Hotel Component; and
(iii)    The Loan Agreement and other Loan Documents would be modified to, among other things, account for (A) the terms of such additional financing (B) the requirements related to the completion of the Hotel Improvements, (C) covenants, conditions and restrictions related to the operation of the hotel following completion of the Hotel Improvements and (D) all other terms and conditions in the Loan Documents impacted by the addition of a hotel to the Property.
If Borrower affords Administrative Agent the Right of First Negotiation pursuant to the terms of this Section 5.1.18 and Borrower and Administrative Agent are unable to reach agreeable terms for Lenders to finance the Hotel Improvements, Borrower shall have the right to Release the Hotel Component, subject to all of the terms and conditions set forth in Section 5.2.10(c) hereof.
5.1.19    Release, Complete or Pay Down. If, as of the Payment Date in September, 2020, Borrower shall not have (a) completed the Release of the Hotel Component in accordance with Section 5.2.10(c) hereof, or (b) commenced construction of the improvements to the Hotel Component (i) pursuant to a project budget, a project schedule, plans and specifications, a general contractor agreement and major trade contracts that have been approved by Administrative Agent in its sole discretion, and (ii) with an anticipated date for completion of such improvements to the Hotel Component being no later than one hundred twenty (120) days after the Payment Date in September, 2020, then Borrower shall on or prior to the Payment Date in September, 2020, pay to Administrative Agent the sum of (w) the Required Pay Down, which amount shall be applied to the repayment of the Debt in accordance with Section 2.3.1 hereof, plus (x) all accrued and unpaid interest on the principal being prepaid pursuant to clause (w) above, plus (y) the Exit Fee due on the portion of principal being so prepaid hereunder, plus (z) all of Administrative Agent's out of pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with such prepayment (including reasonable attorneys' fees).
Section 5.2.     Negative Covenants. From the date hereof and until payment and performance in full of all Obligations in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, Borrower hereby covenants and agrees with Administrative Agent that it shall not do, directly or indirectly, any of the following:
5.2.1    Management Agreement. Borrower shall not, without Administrative Agent's prior written consent: (a) surrender, terminate or cancel the Management Agreement; (b) reduce or consent to the reduction of the term of the Management Agreement; (c) increase the amount of any base management fees payable to Manager under the Management Agreement in excess of three percent (3%) of Revenues per annum or otherwise agree to pay any incentive fees (or

similar compensation) to Manager in excess of amounts set forth in the Management Agreement as of the Closing Date or otherwise approved by Administrative Agent in writing; or (d) otherwise modify, change, supplement, alter or amend, or waive or release any of its material rights and remedies under, the Management Agreement in any material respect. Borrower shall not permit Manager to assign or subcontract Manager's rights, duties or responsibilities under the Management Agreement to any other Person without the express written consent of Administrative Agent. Following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Borrower shall not exercise any rights, make any decisions, grant any approvals or otherwise take any action under the Management Agreement without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent, which consent may be granted, conditioned or withheld in Administrative Agent's sole discretion.
5.2.2    Indebtedness. Borrower shall not (directly or indirectly) create, incur, assume, or allow to exist any Indebtedness with respect to Borrower or any Required SPE Entity, other than Permitted Indebtedness.
5.2.3    Leasing Matters.
(a)    Except as provided in Section 5.2.3(b) below, without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent, Borrower shall not (i) enter into any Lease; (ii) cancel or terminate (including by exercise of any landlord recapture rights) any Lease; (iii) approve any assignment of any Lease that releases the original tenant from its obligations under such Lease, (iv) amend, modify or waive the provisions of any Lease; or (v) cancel or modify any guaranty, or release any security deposit, letter of credit, or other item constituting security pertaining to any Lease.
(b)    Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 5.2.3(a) above, provided that no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Administrative Agent's consent shall not be required as provided above for the creation, assignment (by a tenant), termination, amendment or modification of any Lease which is not a Major Lease provided that: (i) the applicable Lease (or amendment or modification of a Lease if such amendment or modification adjusts or otherwise affects rent) provides for payment of a net effective rent (after taking into account any free rent, construction allowances or other concessions granted by landlord) and other material amounts payable no less than the then effective fair market rent then prevailing for similar properties and leases in the market area (and taking into account the type and creditworthiness of the tenant, the length of the term including any renewals, and the location and size of the premises covered thereby); (ii) the applicable Lease (or amendment or modification) is otherwise on commercially reasonable terms and satisfies the Lease Requirements; (iii) a copy of such Lease is delivered to Administrative Agent promptly after execution thereof together with Borrower's certification that such Lease satisfies the foregoing conditions of this Section 5.2.3; (iv) such Lease, amendment or modification does not contain any options to purchase or other rights with respect to the ownership of the Property, does not contain any restrictions on landlord's rights to lease remaining portions of the Property, except upon terms satisfying the other requirements of this Section 5.2.3(b), and does not contain any options for the tenant thereunder to terminate such Lease, other than in the event of a material casualty or condemnation; (v) such Lease, amendment or modification is entered into on an arm's-length basis; and (vi) such amendment or modification of the applicable Lease is required to be entered into pursuant to the terms of such Lease or each of the following conditions are satisfied: (A) such Lease, as so amended or modified, would not constitute a Major Lease and would, after such amendment or modification, satisfy the conditions of this Section 5.2.3(b), as applicable; (B) to the extent that any additional space is demised pursuant to such amendment or modification, with respect thereto, such amendment or modification satisfies the provisions of this Section 5.2.3(b), as applicable; (C) such amendment or modification does not reduce the rent payable under the Lease so amended or modified; and (D) such amendment or modification does not otherwise have a Material Adverse Effect.

5.2.10    Transfers.
(a)    Borrower shall not, and shall not permit to occur, any Transfer (directly or indirectly, voluntarily or involuntarily, by operation of law or otherwise, and whether or not for consideration or of record) of the Property, any part thereof, or any legal or beneficial interest therein, or any direct or indirect ownership interest in any Restricted Party, or any change of Control of a Restricted Party, in each case, other than Permitted Transfers, which shall be permitted without Administrative Agent's consent (but subject to the satisfaction of the terms and conditions of this Section 5.2.10).

If any such Transfer results in a Person owning more than forty-nine percent (49%) of the direct or indirect interests in Borrower that did not own such amount prior to such Transfer or results in a change of Control of Borrower, then Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent a substantive consolidation opinion in form and content acceptable to Administrative Agent. Borrower shall reimburse Administrative Agent for all of its expenses incurred by Administrative Agent and Lender in connection with any Transfer. Neither Administrative Agent nor Lender shall be required to demonstrate any actual impairment of its security or any increased risk of default hereunder in order to declare the Debt immediately due and payable upon a Transfer in violation of this Agreement. This Section 5.2.10 shall apply to every such Transfer regardless of whether voluntary or not, or whether or not Administrative
LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 81



Agent has consented to any previous such Transfer. Borrower acknowledges that Administrative Agent and Lender have examined and relied on the experience of Borrower and its direct and indirect owners in owning and operating properties such as the Property in agreeing to make the Loan, and will continue to rely on such Persons' ownership of Borrower and the Property as a means of maintaining the value of the Property as security for repayment of the Debt and the performance of the Obligations contained in the Loan Documents. Borrower acknowledges that Administrative Agent and Lender have a valid interest in maintaining the value of the Property so as to ensure that, should Borrower default in the repayment of the Debt or the performance of the Obligations, Administrative Agent and Lender can recover the Debt by a sale of the Property.
(b)    In the event that Borrower desires to sell the Property to another party and have such party assume all of Borrower's obligations under the Loan Documents, or cause a sale of direct or indirect ownership interests in Borrower that results in a change of Control of Borrower, or in the event Borrower requests Administrative Agent’s approval for a Transfer or change of Control that is not otherwise permitted hereunder, Borrower may make a written application to Administrative Agent for Administrative Agent's consent thereto, and the following terms and conditions shall apply: (i) Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent a non-refundable review fee in the amount of $10,000 (payable upon Borrower's request for approval); (ii) Borrower shall pay on demand all of the out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Administrative Agent and Lender in connection with its review such request (including Administrative Agent's and Lender's attorneys' fees and expenses) regardless as to whether such request is approved; (iii) Administrative Agent may grant or withhold its consent to such request in its sole and absolute discretion, and may condition such consent on the satisfaction of such requirements as Administrative Agent may determine, including (A) the transferee (or Borrower after the Transfer of a Controlling interest therein) shall be Controlled by a reputable entity or person of good character, creditworthy, with sufficient financial worth considering the obligations assumed and undertaken, as evidenced by financial statements and other information requested by Administrative Agent, (B) an assumption of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (or, in the case of a Transfer of the Controlling interest in Borrower, such reaffirmations of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents) as so modified as Administrative Agent may require, (C) the payment of an assumption fee equal to seventy-five one hundredths of one percent (0.75%) of the Outstanding Principal Balance, (D) the proposed transferee (or Borrower after the Transfer of a Controlling interest therein) can make (and shall be deemed to have made) the representations and warranties of Borrower set forth herein, (E) the delivery of evidence satisfactory to Administrative Agent that the single purpose nature and bankruptcy remoteness of transferee (or Borrower after the Transfer of a Controlling interest therein) following such transfers are in accordance with the then current standards of Administrative Agent, (F) one or more substitute Person(s) acceptable to Administrative Agent shall have executed and delivered to Administrative Agent a guaranty and an environmental indemnity agreement in substantially the same form as the Guaranty and the Environmental Indemnity executed by Guarantor in connection herewith, (G) the delivery to Administrative Agent of opinions in form and substance satisfactory to Administrative Agent as to substantially the same matters for which opinions were required in connection with the origination of the Loan, including an opinion concerning substantive consolidation if one was delivered in connection with the closing of the Loan, (H) delivery to Administrative Agent of an endorsement to the Title Insurance Policy in form and substance acceptable to Administrative Agent relating to, among other things, the change in the identity of the vestee and execution and delivery of the documents required herein and the continuing priority of the Security Instrument and the continuing effect of the title insurance and all endorsements thereto, and (I) such other conditions as Administrative Agent shall determine.

Upon payment of the Release Amount and satisfaction of all other conditions to a Release in this Section 5.2.10(c), the Hotel Component shall be released from the lien of the Loan Documents and the term "Property" shall thereafter no longer include the Hotel Component. Nothing in this Section 5.2.10 shall release any Borrower or Guarantor from any liability or obligation relating to (A) any environmental matters arising under the Loan Documents with respect to the Hotel Component, and (B) any Recourse Liabilities relating to the Hotel Component arising from events or circumstances occurring prior to such Release. For the avoidance of doubt, Borrower shall not have any right to separately release the Tower Unit or the Future Development Unit from the lien of the Loan Documents.

Without Administrative Agent's prior written approval, Borrower shall not amend, modify or terminate the Project Budget or any Project Document, nor request, initiate, agree to, accept, cause or suffer directly or indirectly any Change Order.

(b)    Independent Approval Rights. If any action, proposed action or other decision is consented to or approved by Mezzanine Loan Administrative Agent, such consent or approval shall not be binding or controlling on Administrative Agent or Lender. Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that (i) the risks of Mezzanine Lender in making the Mezzanine Loan are different from the risks of Administrative Agent in making the Loan, (ii) in determining whether to grant, deny, withhold or condition any requested consent or approval, Mezzanine Loan Administrative Agent and Administrative Agent may reasonably reach different conclusions, and (iii) Administrative Agent has an absolute independent right to grant, deny, withhold or condition any requested consent or approval based on its own point of view, but subject to the standards of consent set forth herein. Furthermore, the denial by Administrative Agent of a requested consent or approval shall not create any liability or other obligation of Administrative Agent if the denial of such consent or approval results directly or indirectly in a default under the Mezzanine Loan Documents, and Borrower hereby waives any claim of liability against Administrative Agent arising from any such denial unless Administrative Agent has not complied with any applicable standard for consent. The rights described above may be exercised by any entity which owns and controls, directly or indirectly, substantially all of the interests in Administrative Agent.
(c)    Intercreditor Agreement. Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that any intercreditor agreement entered into between Administrative Agent and Mezzanine Loan Administrative Agent will be solely for the benefit of Administrative Agent and Mezzanine Loan Administrative Agent, and that neither Borrower nor Mezzanine Borrower shall be third-party beneficiaries (intended or otherwise) of any of the provisions therein, have any rights thereunder, or be entitled to rely on any of the provisions contained therein. Administrative Agent and Mezzanine Loan Administrative Agent have no obligation to disclose to Borrower or Mezzanine Borrower the contents of any such intercreditor agreement.

(b)    Borrower will not, directly or indirectly, use the proceeds of the Loan, or lend, contribute or otherwise make available such proceeds to any Person, (i) in furtherance of an offer, payment, promise to pay, or authorization of the payment or giving of money, or anything else of value, to any Person in violation of Anti-Corruption Laws, (ii) to fund any activities or business of or with any Designated Person, or in any Designated Jurisdiction, or (iii) in any other manner that would violate Sanctions and Anti-Money Laundering Laws by any Person.

(c)    To help the US Government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, The Sanctions and Anti-Money Laundering Laws require Administrative Agent and Lenders to obtain, verify and record information that identifies its customers. Upon the request of Administrative Agent, Borrower shall provide Administrative Agent and each Lender with any additional information that Administrative Agent or any Lender deems necessary from time to time in order to ensure compliance with this Section 5.2.13 and with Sanctions and Anti-Money Laundering Laws and any other applicable Legal Requirements concerning sanctions, terrorism, anti-corruption, money-laundering and similar activities, and shall re-make the representations contained in Section 4.22 hereof.
5.2.14    HVCRE Matters. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Borrower shall not make any distribution of cash or other property to its constituent direct and indirect owners which could cause the Loan to be classified as an HVCRE Loan, and in any event shall at all times maintain sufficient cash equity invested in the Property to ensure that the Loan is not categorized as an HVCRE Loan. Within ten (10) Business Days after Administrative Agent's request Borrower shall to provide to Administrative Agent a certification in form and substance acceptable to Administrative Agent setting forth in reasonable detail Borrower's compliance with the foregoing requirements and provide documentation in support thereof if requested by Administrative Agent.

LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 89



time as is reasonably necessary for Borrower in the exercise of due diligence to cure such Default, such additional period not to exceed ninety (90) days.
Section 6.2.     Remedies.
(a)    During the continuance of an Event of Default, in addition to any other rights or remedies available to it pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or at law or in equity, Administrative Agent may, at its election, take such action, without notice or demand, that Administrative Agent deems advisable to protect and enforce its rights against Borrower and in and to the Property, including declaring the Debt to be immediately due and payable, and Administrative Agent may enforce or avail itself of any or all rights or remedies provided in the Loan Documents against Borrower and the Property, including all rights or remedies available at law or in equity; provided that during the continuance of any Event of Default described in Section 6.1(f) above, the Debt shall immediately and automatically become due and payable, without notice or demand, and Borrower hereby expressly waives any such notice or demand, anything contained herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding.
(b)    During the continuance of an Event of Default, all or any one or more of the rights, powers, privileges and other remedies available to Administrative Agent or Lender against Borrower under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents executed and delivered by, or applicable to, Borrower or at law or in equity may be exercised by Administrative Agent or Lender at any time and from time to time, whether or not all or any of the Debt shall be declared due and payable, and whether or not Administrative Agent shall have commenced any foreclosure proceeding or other action for the enforcement of its rights and remedies under any of the Loan Documents. Any such actions taken by Administrative Agent shall be cumulative and concurrent and may be pursued independently, singularly, successively, together or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Administrative Agent may determine in its sole discretion, to the fullest extent permitted by law, without impairing or otherwise affecting the other rights and remedies of Administrative Agent or Lender permitted by law, equity or contract or as set forth herein or in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Borrower agrees that if an Event of Default exists (i) Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any "one action" or "election of remedies" law or rule, (ii) all liens and other rights, remedies or privileges provided to Administrative Agent shall remain in full force and effect until Administrative Agent has exhausted all of its remedies against the Property and the lien created by the Security Instrument has been foreclosed, sold and/or otherwise realized upon in satisfaction of the Debt or the Obligations have been paid in full, (iii) Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, without impairing or otherwise affecting any other rights and remedies of Administrative Agent hereunder, at law or in equity, apply (ex parte or otherwise on an emergency or expedited basis, if elected by Administrative Agent), for the appointment of a custodian, trustee, receiver, keeper, liquidator or conservator of the Property or any part thereof, irrespective of the adequacy of the security for the Debt and without regard to the solvency of Borrower or of any Person liable for the payment of the Debt, to which appointment Borrower does hereby consent and such receiver or other official shall have all rights and powers permitted by applicable Legal Requirements and such other rights and powers as the court making such appointment may confer, but the appointment of such receiver or other official shall not impair or in any manner prejudice the rights of Administrative Agent to receive the Revenues with respect to the Property pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and (iv) Administrative Agent may draw on any Letter of Credit delivered to Administrative Agent in connection with the Loan and apply such funds to the Debt, or hold the same as collateral for the Debt, in Administrative Agent's sole discretion.
(c)    Lender and Administrative Agent shall have the right from time to time to sever the Notes and the other Loan Documents into one or more separate notes, mortgages and other security documents in such denominations as Lender and Administrative Agent shall determine
LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 90



in its sole discretion for purposes of evidencing and enforcing its rights and remedies provided hereunder. Borrower shall execute and deliver to Administrative Agent from time to time, promptly after the request of Administrative Agent, a severance agreement and such other documents as Administrative Agent shall request in order to effect the severance described in the preceding sentence, all in form and substance satisfactory to Administrative Agent. Borrower hereby absolutely and irrevocably appoints Administrative Agent as its true and lawful attorney, coupled with an interest, in its name and stead to make and execute all documents necessary or desirable to effect the aforesaid severance, Borrower ratifying all that its said attorney shall do by virtue thereof; provided, however, Administrative Agent shall not make or execute any such documents under such power until three (3) days after notice has been given to Borrower by Administrative Agent of Administrative Agent's intent to exercise its rights under such power. The costs or expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, execution, recording or filing of the foregoing Loan Documents (and amendments thereto) shall be paid by Borrower.
(d)    With respect to Borrower and the Property, nothing contained herein or in any other Loan Document shall be construed as requiring Administrative Agent or Lender to resort to the Property for the satisfaction of any of the Debt in any preference or priority, and Administrative Agent may seek satisfaction out of the Property, or any part thereof, in its absolute discretion in respect of the Debt. Except as limited by applicable Legal Requirements, Administrative Agent shall have the right from time to time to partially foreclose the Security Instrument in any manner and for any amounts secured by the Security Instrument then due and payable as determined by Administrative Agent, including the following circumstances: (i) during the continuance of an Event of Default in the payment of one or more scheduled payments of principal and/or interest, Administrative Agent may foreclose the Security Instrument to recover such delinquent payments, or (ii) during the continuance of an Event of Default, in the event Administrative Agent elects to accelerate less than the entire Debt, Administrative Agent may foreclose the Security Instrument to recover so much of the Debt as Administrative Agent may accelerate and such other sums secured by the Security Instrument as Administrative Agent may elect. Notwithstanding one or more partial foreclosures, the Property shall remain subject to the Security Instrument to secure payment of sums secured by the Security Instrument and not previously recovered.
(e)    In addition to all remedies conferred it by law and by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, during the continuance of an Event of Default, Administrative Agent may 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, and with full rights to reimbursement from Borrower and any Guarantor: (i) take possession of the Property and complete any construction work at the Property, including the right to avail itself of and procure performance of existing contracts or let any contracts with the same contractors or others and to employ watchmen to protect the Property from injury (and without restricting the generality of the foregoing and for the purposes aforesaid to be exercised during the existence and continuance of an Event of Default, Borrower hereby appoints and constitutes Administrative Agent its lawful attorney-in-fact with full power of substitution to complete any construction work at the Property in the name of Borrower); (ii) use amounts in the Reserve Accounts to complete any construction work at the Property; (iii) make changes to the plans and specifications which shall be necessary or desirable to complete any construction work at the Property in substantially the manner contemplated by such plans and specifications; (iv) retain or employ new general contractors, subcontractors, architects, engineers and inspectors as shall be required for said purposes; 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 Property, or as may be necessary or desirable for the completion of any construction work at the Property or for the clearance of title to the Property; (v) execute all applications and certificates in the name of Borrower which may be required by any of the contract documents; (vi) prosecute and defend all actions or proceedings in connection with any construction work at the Property;
LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 91



and (vii) take any action and require such performance as it deems necessary to be furnished hereunder and to make settlements and compromises with the surety or sureties thereunder, and in connection therewith, to execute instruments of release and satisfaction.
(f)    Any amounts recovered from the Property or any other collateral for the Loan during the existence of an Event of Default may be applied by Administrative Agent toward the payment of the Debt in such order, priority and proportions as Administrative Agent determines.
(g)    The rights, powers and remedies of Administrative Agent and Lender under this Agreement shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any other right, power or remedy which Administrative Agent or Lender may have against Borrower or Guarantor pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or existing at law or in equity or otherwise. Administrative Agent's rights, powers and remedies may be pursued singularly, concurrently or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Administrative Agent may determine in Administrative Agent's sole discretion.
(h)    During the existence of an Event of Default, Administrative Agent may, but without any obligation to do so and without notice to or demand on Borrower and without releasing Borrower from any obligation hereunder or under the other Loan Documents or being deemed to have cured any Event of Default, make, do or perform any obligation of Borrower hereunder or under the other Loan Documents in such manner and to such extent as Administrative Agent may deem necessary (which, for the avoidance of doubt shall include curing any default under or breach of the Management Agreement, regardless of whether a Default or Event of Default exists hereunder). Administrative Agent is authorized to enter upon the Property for such purposes, or appear in, defend, or bring any action or proceeding to protect its interest in the Property for such purposes. All out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Administrative Agent or Lender in remedying or attempting to remedy such Event of Default or such other breach or default by Borrower or in appearing in, defending, or bringing any action or proceeding shall bear interest at the Default Rate from the date such costs and expenses were incurred to the date reimbursement payment is received by Administrative Agent. All such costs and expenses incurred by Administrative Agent and Lender, together with interest thereon calculated at the Default Rate, shall be deemed to constitute a portion of the Obligations, shall be secured by the liens and security interests provided to Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents and shall be immediately due and payable upon demand by Administrative Agent therefor.
(i)    Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default (irrespective of whether or not the same consists of an ongoing condition, a one-time occurrence, or otherwise), the same shall be deemed to continue at all times thereafter; provided, however, that such Event of Default shall cease to continue only if Administrative Agent shall accept payment or performance of the defaulted obligation or shall execute and deliver a written confirmation that such Event of Default has ceased to continue. Administrative Agent shall not be obligated under any circumstances whatsoever to accept such payment or performance or execute and deliver any such writing. Without limitation, this Section shall govern in any case where reference is made in this Agreement or elsewhere in the Loan Documents to (i) any "cure" (whether by use of such word or otherwise) of any Event of Default, (ii) "during an Event of Default," "the continuance of an Event of Default" or "after an Event of Default has ceased" (in each case, whether by use of such words or otherwise), or (iii) any condition or event which continues beyond the time when the same becomes an Event of Default.
Section 6.3.     Limitation on Remedies.
(a)    Exculpation. Subject to the qualifications set forth in this Section 6.3, Administrative Agent shall not enforce the liability and obligation of Borrower to perform and
LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 92



observe the obligations contained in the Notes, this Agreement, the Security Instrument or the other Loan Documents by any action or proceeding wherein a money judgment shall be sought against Borrower, or its direct or indirect owners (other than pursuant to any separate agreement, indemnity or guaranty, including pursuant to the Guaranty and the Environmental Indemnity), except that Administrative Agent may bring a foreclosure action, an action for specific performance or any other appropriate action or proceeding to enable Administrative Agent to enforce and realize upon its interest under the Notes, this Agreement, the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents, or in the Property, the Revenues, or any other collateral given to Administrative Agent pursuant to the Loan Documents; provided, however, that, except as specifically provided herein, any judgment awarded in any such action or proceeding shall be enforceable against Borrower only to the extent of Borrower's interest in the Property, in the Revenues and in any other collateral given to Administrative Agent as collateral security for the Debt, and Administrative Agent, without limitation of the foregoing and in addition thereto, agrees for itself and its successors and assigns that it and its successors and assigns shall not sue for, seek or demand any deficiency judgment against Borrower in any such action or proceeding under, or by reason of, or in connection with, the Notes, this Agreement, the Security Instrument or the other Loan Documents. The provisions of this Section 6.3(a) shall not, however, (i) constitute a waiver, release or impairment of any obligation evidenced or secured by any of the Loan Documents; (ii) impair the right of Administrative Agent to name Borrower as a party defendant in any action or suit for foreclosure and sale under the Security Instrument; (iii) affect the validity or enforceability of any separate agreement, indemnity or guaranty (including the Guaranty and the Environmental Indemnity), or any of the rights and remedies of Administrative Agent or Lender thereunder; (iv) impair the right of Administrative Agent to obtain the appointment of a receiver; (v) impair the enforcement of the Assignment of Leases; or (vi) constitute a prohibition against Administrative Agent seeking a deficiency judgment against Borrower not otherwise prohibited by this Section 6.3(a) in order to fully realize the security granted by the Security Instrument or commencing any other appropriate action or proceeding in order for Administrative Agent to exercise its remedies against the Property, provided, that, the liability and obligation of Borrower in connection with any such deficiency action shall be limited (Y) to the Recourse Liabilities and (Z) if a Springing Recourse Event has occurred, to the Debt.
(b)    Recourse for Losses. Nothing contained in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents shall in any manner or way release, affect or impair the right of Administrative Agent to recover, and Borrower shall be fully and personally liable for and subject to legal action to the extent of, any Losses actually suffered or incurred by Administrative Agent and/or Lender arising out of or in connection with the following (all such liability and obligation for any or all of the following being referred to herein as the "Recourse Liabilities"):
(i)    fraud, intentional misrepresentation, or intentional failure to disclose a material fact concerning the Property, Borrower, any Required SPE Entity, Guarantor, or the Loan by any of the Borrower Parties;
(ii)    willful misconduct or illegal acts of any of the Borrower Parties;
(iii)    intentional material physical waste of the Property by any Borrower Party or any Person at the direction of any of the foregoing; provided, however, Borrower shall have no liability under this subsection (b)(iii) if sufficient revenues are not available to Borrower from the Property to prevent such material physical waste;
(iv)    the removal or disposal of any portion of the Property during the existence of an Event of Default in violation of this Agreement unless such Property is promptly replaced with property of equivalent value and functionality if reasonably necessary or which is no longer necessary in connection with the operation of the Property;

(vii)    any security deposits, advance deposits or any other deposits collected with respect to the Property which are not delivered to Administrative Agent upon a foreclosure of the Property or transfer in lieu thereof, except to the extent any such security deposits were applied in accordance with the terms and conditions of any of the Leases prior to the occurrence of the Event of Default that gave rise to such foreclosure or transfer in lieu thereof and permitted hereunder;
(viii)    failure of Borrower to purchase and maintain any Interest Rate Cap Agreement as required pursuant to this Agreement;
(ix)    Borrower's failure to obtain and maintain the fully paid for Required Policies in accordance with Section 5.1.11 attributable to the time that Borrower owns the Property (provided that Borrower shall not have liability pursuant to this clause (x) to the extent that (A) the Property fails to generate sufficient Revenue during the prior twelve (12) month period to pay such Required Policies or (B) sufficient amounts have been deposited with Administrative Agent to specifically pay the same);
(x)    Borrower's failure to pay all Property Taxes attributable to the time that Borrower owns the Property prior to the same becoming delinquent (provided that Borrower shall not have liability pursuant to this clause (x) to the extent that (A) the Property fails to generate sufficient Revenue during the prior twelve (12) month period to pay such Property Taxes or (B) sufficient amounts have been deposited with Administrative Agent to specifically pay the same);

ARTICLE VII

SECONDARY MARKET TRANSACTIONS; SERVICING
Section 7.1.     Secondary Market Transactions. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that any Lender may (a) sell, transfer, pledge, and/or encumber all or any portion of the Loan and the Loan Documents, (b) grant or issue one or more participations therein, and/or (c) consummate one or more private or public securitizations of rated single- or multi-class securities (the "Securities") secured by or evidencing ownership interests in all or any portion of the Loan and the Loan Documents or a pool of assets that include all or any portion of the Loan and the Loan Documents (a "Securitization", and together with any other such sales, transfers, and/or participations described in the foregoing clauses, and any Special Mezzanine Loan Advance, collectively, a "Secondary Market Transaction"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as no Event of Default has occurred, Lender agrees that it will not sell or transfer any unadvanced portion of the Loan prior to Completion of the Project (other than a participation interest in connection with which the holder of the applicable Note remains liable to make Additional Advances as provided herein) to any Person other than a Qualified Transferee without Borrower's consent, not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not be deemed to limit the rights of Lender and Mezzanine Lender with respect to the making of a Special Mezzanine Loan Advance.
Section 7.2.     Borrower Cooperation.
(a)    In connection with any Secondary Market Transaction, Borrower shall execute and deliver to Administrative Agent such documents, instruments, certificates, financial statements, assignments and other writings, do such other acts and provide such information, provide a non-consolidation opinion to Administrative Agent in a form reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent, and participate in such meetings and discussions, in each case that are necessary to facilitate the consummation of each Secondary Market Transaction, including executing and delivering such documents and agreements (and deliver such opinions of counsel with respect thereto as Administrative Agent may require) necessary to (i) restructure the Loan into multiple notes (which may include component notes and/or senior and junior notes), issue additional or replacement Notes, and/or reduce the number of Notes, and/or (ii) restructure the Loan into a mortgage loan and one or more mezzanine loans (to be made to one or more Special Purpose Entities that will be the direct and/or indirect owners of the ownership interests in Borrower, and secured by a pledge of such ownership interests, in each case including that such notes and/or mezzanine loans), and/or (iii) establish different interest rates with respect to, and reallocate the amortization and principal balances applicable to, each note or tranche of the Loan, and/or (iv) assign to each such note or tranche or to each tranche of the restructured Loan such order of priority as may be designated by Administrative Agent, and/or (v) modify any operative dates within the Loan Documents (including the Payment Date and the Interest Period); provided, however, that (A) the aggregate principal amount of all such notes or tranches as of their date of creation shall equal the Outstanding Principal Balance immediately prior to their creation, (B) the weighted average interest rate of all such notes or tranches shall on the date created equal the interest rate that was applicable to the Loan immediately prior to the creation of such notes or tranches, (C) the debt service payments on all such notes or tranches shall on the date they are created equal the debt service payment that was due under the Loan immediately prior to the creation of such notes or tranches, (D) no such amendment to the Loan Documents shall decrease in any material manner the rights of Borrower or Guarantor under the Loan Documents, or result in any additional material liability or material obligation to Borrower or Guarantor under the Loan Documents (except to the extent related to having different interest rates apply to the notes or tranches upon partial paydown thereof following the occurrence of an Event of Default, or the extent related to having separate mortgage and mezzanine loans); it being further agreed that the mere reduction of the Outstanding Principal Balance and
LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 96



commensurate increases in the Mezzanine Loan Outstanding Principal Balance shall not be deemed to violate this clause (D) so long as the requirements of clauses (A), (B), and (C) above are satisfied, and (E) no such amendment described in clause (v) above shall be effective sooner than thirty (30) days after notice thereof from Administrative Agent, nor shall it cause the Maturity Date to be an earlier date. In connection with the creation of any mezzanine loan as described above, Borrower shall cause the formation of one or more Special Purpose Entities as required by Administrative Agent in order to serve as the borrower under any such mezzanine loan (and the applicable organizational documents of Borrower and such new entity shall be acceptable to Administrative Agent in form and content), and Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent a "UCC-9" insurance policy and a mezzanine endorsement to the owner's policy of title insurance held by Borrower, and such opinions of legal counsel as Administrative Agent may require. If Borrower fails to cooperate with Administrative Agent within ten (10) Business Days of written request by Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent is hereby appointed as Borrower's attorney in fact, coupled with an interest, to execute any and all documents necessary to accomplish such modifications (but in any event the Loan Documents shall be deemed to have been modified to incorporate any such modifications as Administrative Agent may so notify Borrower of in writing) and at Administrative Agent's option, declare such failure to be an Event of Default.
(b)    At the request of Administrative Agent, Borrower shall provide information regarding Borrower, the Guarantor or the Property which is not in the possession of Administrative Agent or which may be required by Administrative Agent in order to satisfy the market standards to which Administrative Agent or Lender customarily adheres or which may be required by prospective investors and/or the Rating Agencies or required by applicable Legal Requirements in connection with any such Secondary Market Transaction, including to: (i) provide additional and/or updated information concerning Borrower, any Required SPE Entity, Guarantor, Manager, or the Property, together with appropriate verification and/or consents related to such information through letters of auditors or opinions of counsel of independent attorneys acceptable to Administrative Agent and the Rating Agencies; (ii) assist in preparing descriptive materials for presentations to any or all of the Rating Agencies, and work with, and if requested, supervise, third-party service providers engaged by Borrower, any Required SPE Entity and their respective Affiliates to obtain, collect, and deliver information requested or required by Administrative Agent or the Rating Agencies; (iii) deliver (1) new or updated opinions of counsel as to non-consolidation, due execution and enforceability with respect to the Property, Borrower, any Required SPE Entity, Guarantor and their respective Affiliates, and the Loan Documents (including a so-called "10b-5" opinion), and (2) revised organizational documents for Borrower and any Required SPE Entity and certificates of the relevant Governmental Authorities in all relevant jurisdictions indicating the good standing and qualification of Borrower and Required SPE Entity as of the date of the Secondary Market Transaction, which counsel opinions and revisions to organizational documents shall be satisfactory to Administrative Agent and the Rating Agencies; (iv) use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver such additional tenant estoppel letters and subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreements or, if applicable, estoppels from parties to agreements that affect the Property and who are required to provide the same, which estoppel letters and subordination non-disturbance and attornment agreements shall be satisfactory to Administrative Agent and the Rating Agencies; (v) make such representations and warranties as of the closing date of the Secondary Market Transaction with respect to the Property, Borrower, any Required SPE Entity, Guarantor and the Loan Documents as may be requested by Administrative Agent or the Rating Agencies and consistent with the facts covered by such representations and warranties as they exist on the date thereof, including the representations and warranties made in the Loan Documents; (vi) if requested by Administrative Agent, review and certify as to the accuracy of any information regarding the Property, Borrower, any Required SPE Entity, Guarantor, Manager, and the Loan which is contained in a preliminary or final private placement memorandum, prospectus, prospectus supplement (including any amendment or supplement to
LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 97



either thereof), or other disclosure document to be used by Administrative Agent, Lender or any Affiliate thereof; and (vii) supply to Administrative Agent such documentation, financial statements and reports in form and substance required in order to comply with any applicable securities laws.
(c)    If, at the time a Disclosure Document is being prepared for a Securitization, Lender expects that Borrower alone or Borrower and one or more Affiliates of Borrower collectively, or the Property alone or the Property and any related properties (within the meaning of Regulation AB under the Securities Act), collectively, will be a Significant Obligor, Borrower shall furnish to Administrative Agent upon request (i) the selected financial data or, if applicable, net operating income, required under Item 1112(b)(1) of Regulation AB under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, if Lender expects that the principal amount of the Loan together with any Related Loans as of the cut-off date for such Securitization may, or if the principal amount of the Loan together with any Related Loans as of the cut-off date for such Securitization and at any time during which the Loan and any Related Loans are included in a Securitization does, equal or exceed ten percent (10%) (but less than twenty percent (20%) of the aggregate principal amount of all mortgage loans included or expected to be included, as applicable, in the Securitization, or (ii) the financial statements required under Item 1112(b)(2) of said Regulation AB, if Lender expects that the principal amount of the Loan together with any Related Loans as of the cut-off date for such Securitization may, or if the principal amount of the Loan together with any Related Loans as of the cut-off date for such Securitization and at any time during which the Loan and any Related Loans are included in a Securitization does, equal or exceed twenty percent (20%) of the aggregate principal amount of all mortgage loans included or expected to be included, as applicable, in the Securitization. Such financial data or financial statements shall be furnished to Administrative Agent (A) within ten (10) Business Days after notice from Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation of Disclosure Documents for the Securitization, (B) not later than thirty (30) days after the end of each fiscal quarter of Borrower and (C) not later than seventy-five (75) days after the end of each fiscal year of Borrower; provided, however, that Borrower shall not be obligated to furnish financial data or financial statements pursuant to clauses (B) or (C) of this sentence with respect to any period for which a filing pursuant to the Exchange Act is not required. If requested by Administrative Agent, Borrower shall furnish to Administrative Agent, within ten (10) Business Days after Administrative Agent's request, (1) a list of tenants (if any) (including all affiliates of such tenants) that in the aggregate (y) occupy ten percent (10%) or more (but less than twenty percent (20%)) of the total floor area of the improvements or represent ten percent (10%) or more (but less than twenty percent (20%)) of aggregate base rent, and (z) occupy 20% or more of the total floor area of the improvements or represent twenty percent (20%) or more of aggregate base rent, (2) financial data and/or financial statements for any tenant of the Property (in form and substance sufficient to satisfy the requirements of Item 1112 of said Regulation AB as determined by Lender) if, in connection with a Securitization, Lender expects there to be, with respect to such tenant or group of Affiliated tenants, a concentration within all of the mortgage loans included or expected to be included, as applicable, in the Securitization such that such tenant or group of affiliated tenants would constitute a Significant Obligor, and (3) such other or additional financial statements, or financial, statistical or operating information, and/or other forms of such information as has been previously provided, as Lender shall determine to be required pursuant to Regulation AB, Regulation S-K, or Regulation S-X (each under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act), as applicable, or any amendment, modification or replacement thereto or other Legal Requirements applicable to the Loan or any such Secondary Market Transaction in connection with any Disclosure Document or any Exchange Act filing in connection with or relating to a Secondary Market Transaction or as shall otherwise be requested by Administrative Agent. All financial statements provided by Borrower pursuant to this Section 7.2 shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP and shall meet the requirements of said Regulation AB, S-K, and Regulation S-X, as applicable, and all other applicable Legal Requirements applicable to the Loan or any such Secondary Market Transaction, and shall be
LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 98



accompanied by the manually executed report of the independent accountants thereon, which report shall meet all such requirements, and shall be further accompanied by a manually executed written consent of such independent accountants, in form and substance acceptable to Administrative Agent, to the inclusion of such financial statements in any Disclosure Document and any filing pursuant to the Exchange Act and to the use of the name of such independent accountants and the reference to such independent accountants as "experts" in any Disclosure Document and any such Exchange Act filing, all of which shall be provided at the same time as the related financial statements are required to be provided. All financial statements shall be certified by the chief financial officer of Borrower, which certification shall state that such financial statements meet the requirements set forth in this Section 7.2.
(d)    Borrower will reimburse Administrative Agent for Administrative Agent's and Lender's out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including fees and expenses of outside legal counsel) relating to any Secondary Market Transaction, subject to a maximum of $15,000.00.
Section 7.3.     Securitization Indemnification.
(a)    Borrower understands that information provided to Administrative Agent and Lender by Borrower and its agents, counsel and representatives may be included in disclosure documents in connection with the Securitization, including an offering circular, a prospectus, prospectus supplement, private placement memorandum or other offering document (each, a "Disclosure Document") and may also be included in filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Act or Exchange Act, and may be made available to investors or prospective investors in the Securities, rating agencies, investment banking firms, any credit rating agency that has elected to be treated as a nationally recognized statistical rating organization for purposes of Section 15E of the Exchange Act (without regard to whether or not such credit rating agency has been engaged by Administrative Agent, Lender or its respective designees in connection with, or in anticipation of, a Securitization), accounting firms, law firms and other third party advisory and service providers relating to the Securitization. Borrower also understands that the findings and conclusions of any third-party due diligence report obtained by the Lender or Administrative Agent, the issuer of any Securitization or any Securitization placement agent or underwriter may be made publicly available if required, and in the manner prescribed, by Section 15E(s)(4)(A) of the Exchange Act and any rules promulgated thereunder. Borrower shall provide in connection with each of (i) a preliminary and a final private placement memorandum or (ii) a preliminary and final prospectus or prospectus supplement, as applicable, delivered to Borrower for its review and comment specifying the sections thereof that Lender desires Borrower to review, an agreement (A) certifying that Borrower has examined such sections of the Disclosure Documents specified by Lender relating to Borrower, its Affiliates, the Property, any Affiliated Manager, and Guarantor (collectively, the "Borrower Group"), and/or the Loan (such sections, "Applicable Sections") and that no such Applicable Sections contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements made in such Applicable Sections, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading in any material respect (and provided further that any corrections or updates provided by Borrower to such Applicable Sections shall have been incorporated therein to the extent true and accurate), (B) indemnifying Lender, the other Indemnified Parties, and any Person that has filed the registration statement relating to the Securitization (the "Registration Statement"), each of its directors and officers who have signed the Registration Statement, and each Person that controls any such Person within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (collectively, the "Lender Group"), and any other placement agent or underwriter with respect to the Securitization, each of their respective directors and officers, each Person who controls a member of the Lender Group or such placement agent or underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act (collectively, the "Underwriter Group") (for the avoidance of doubt, all of the foregoing Persons are referred to in this Section 7.3 as "Indemnified Parties") for
LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 99



any Losses to which the Lender Group or the Underwriter Group may become subject insofar as such liabilities arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Applicable Sections so certified by Borrower or arise out of or are based upon the omission by Borrower to state in such Applicable Sections a material fact required to be stated in such Applicable Sections or necessary in order to make the statements in such Applicable Sections, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading in any material respect (and provided further that any corrections or updates provided by Borrower to such Applicable Sections shall have been incorporated therein to the extent true and accurate), and (C) agreeing to reimburse the Lender Group and/or the Underwriter Group for any legal or other expenses incurred by the Lender Group and the Underwriter Group in connection with investigating or defending such liabilities; provided, however, that Borrower will be liable in any such case under clauses (B) or (C) above only to the extent that any such Loss arises out of or is based upon any such untrue statement or omission made in the Applicable Sections so certified by Borrower in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to Administrative Agent or Lender by Borrower, Guarantor, or any of their Affiliates in connection with the preparation of such Applicable Sections or in connection with the underwriting or closing of the Loan, including financial statements of Borrower, operating statements and rent rolls with respect to the Property (and provided further that any corrections or updates provided by Borrower to such Applicable Sections shall have been incorporated therein to the extent true and accurate), and shall not be liable to any Indemnified Party for losses to the extent resulting from such Indemnified Party's gross negligence, willful misconduct, or illegal acts. The indemnification provided for in clauses (B) and (C) above shall be effective whether or not the indemnification agreement described above is provided. The aforesaid indemnity will be in addition to any liability which Borrower may otherwise have. In connection with any filing pursuant to the Exchange Act in connection with or relating to a Securitization, Borrower shall (i) indemnify the Lender Group and the Underwriter Group for the above-described liabilities to which the Lender Group or the Underwriter Group may become subject insofar as such liabilities arise out of or are based upon the omission to state in the Applicable Sections so certified by Borrower a material fact required to be stated in such Applicable Sections in order to make the statements in such Applicable Sections, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading in any material respect, and (ii) reimburse the Lender Group and the Underwriter Group for any legal or other expenses incurred by the Lender Group or the Underwriter Group in connection with defending or investigating such liabilities.
(b)    Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Party under this Section 7.3 of notice of the commencement of any action, such Indemnified Party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 7.3, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof, but the omission to so notify the indemnifying party will not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability which the indemnifying party may have to any Indemnified Party hereunder except to the extent that failure to notify causes prejudice to the indemnifying party. In the event that any action is brought against any Indemnified Party, and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled, jointly with any other indemnifying party, to participate therein and, to the extent that it (or they) may elect by written notice delivered to the Indemnified Party promptly after receiving the aforesaid notice from such Indemnified Party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel satisfactory to such Indemnified Party. After notice from the indemnifying party to such Indemnified Party under this Section 7.3, such indemnifying party shall pay for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof other than costs of investigation; provided, however, if the defendants in any such action include both the Indemnified Party and the indemnifying party and the Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded that there are any legal defenses available to it and/or other Indemnified Parties that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to assert such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such action on behalf
LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 100



of such Indemnified Party at the cost of the indemnifying party. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel unless an Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or additional to those available to another Indemnified Party.
(c)    In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which the indemnity agreement provided for in this Section 7.3  is for any reason held to be unenforceable as to an Indemnified Party in respect of any Losses (or action in respect thereof) referred to therein which would otherwise be indemnifiable under this Section 7.3, the indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the Indemnified Party as a result of such Losses (or action in respect thereof); provided, however, that no Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. In determining the amount of contribution to which the respective parties are entitled, the following factors shall be considered: (i) the relative knowledge of Borrower and the applicable issuer(s) of the Securities in connection with the Securitization, and access to information concerning the matter with respect to which the claim was asserted; (ii) the opportunity to correct and prevent any statement or omission; and (iii) any other equitable considerations appropriate in the circumstances. Administrative Agent and Borrower hereby agree that it would not be equitable if the amount of such contribution were determined by pro rata or per capita allocation.
(d)    The liabilities and obligations of Borrower, Lender and Administrative Agent under this Section 7.3 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the satisfaction and discharge of the Debt.
Section 7.4.     Rating Agency Confirmations. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that if the Loan is part of a Securitization, Administrative Agent may be required to obtain confirmation from one or more Rating Agencies that the granting of certain consents, approvals, or waivers (and certain other actions of Administrative Agent) will not cause a downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of any ratings of the Securities or any class thereof, and that any such consent or approval by Administrative Agent may be conditioned upon receipt of such confirmation and the satisfaction of any conditions precedent thereto required by such Rating Agencies (and any use of the phrase "approval of Administrative Agent " (or similar) shall be deemed to mean and include receipt of such confirmation by Administrative Agent from such Rating Agencies). The circumstances under which this might arise include, but are not limited to, request to approve the replacement of a property manager, and requests for approvals of Transfers. Borrower shall be responsible for any and all fees and costs incurred in order to obtain any such Rating Agency confirmation (and Administrative Agent shall be entitled to require payment of such fees and expenses as a condition precedent to the obtaining of any such consent, approval, waiver or confirmation).
ARTICLE VIII

MISCELLANEOUS
Section 8.1.     Survival. This Agreement and all covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made herein and in the certificates delivered pursuant hereto shall survive the making by Lender of the Loan and the execution and delivery to Lender of the Note, and shall continue in full force and effect so long as all or any of the Obligations are outstanding and unpaid unless a longer period is expressly set forth herein or in the other Loan Documents. Whenever in this Agreement any of the parties hereto is referred to, such reference shall be deemed to include the legal representatives, successors and assigns of such party. All covenants,
LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 101



promises and agreements in this Agreement, by or on behalf of Borrower, shall inure to the benefit of the legal representatives, successors and assigns of Administrative Agent and Lender.
Section 8.2.     Administrative Agent Matters
(a)    Appointment; Resignation. Each Lender irrevocably appoints and authorizes Administrative Agent to act on its behalf as Administrative Agent hereunder to take such action as Administrative Agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement as are delegated to Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with all such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Neither Administrative Agent nor any of its affiliates nor any of their respective directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in connection herewith (i) with the consent or at the request of Lenders, or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to Lenders and Borrower. Upon any such resignation, Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by Lenders, or no successor Administrative Agent shall have accepted such appointment, within thirty (30) days after the resigning Administrative Agent gives notice of resignation, then the resigning Administrative Agent may, on behalf of Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder first accruing or arising after the effective date of such retirement. After any retiring Administrative Agent's resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the provisions of this Section 8.2(a) are intended to govern the relationship among Lenders and Administrative Agent and may be modified or amended without Borrower's consent, written or otherwise. At the option of Administrative Agent, the Loan may be serviced by a servicer/trustee (the "Servicer") selected by Administrative Agent and Administrative Agent may delegate all or any portion of its responsibilities under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to the Servicer pursuant to a servicing agreement between Administrative Agent and Servicer. Borrower shall be responsible for any set-up fees or any other initial costs relating to or arising under such servicing agreement, as well as for the payment of any "special servicing", "workout", and "liquidation" fees incurred by Administrative Agent in connection with any default or workout of the Loan; provided, however, that Borrower shall not be responsible for payment of the non-special servicing monthly servicing fee due to the Servicer under such servicing agreement.
(b)    Administrative Agent's Discretion. Whenever pursuant to this Agreement, Administrative Agent exercises any right given to it to approve or disapprove, or to make any election, waiver, or request, or to make any determination, or find that any arrangement or term is to be satisfactory to Administrative Agent, the decision of Administrative Agent to approve or disapprove, or to make such election, waiver, request, or determination, decision, or finding shall (except as is otherwise specifically herein provided) be in the sole and absolute discretion of Administrative Agent and shall be final and conclusive. Whenever pursuant to this Agreement, Administrative Agent exercises any right given to it to "reasonably" approve or disapprove, or to make any election, waiver, or request, or to make any determination "reasonably", or find that any arrangement or term is to be "reasonably" satisfactory to Administrative Agent, during the continuance of an Event of Default, the decision of Administrative Agent to approve or disapprove, or to make such election, waiver, request, or determination, decision, or finding shall be in the sole and absolute discretion of Administrative Agent and shall be final and conclusive and the use of the word "reasonably" (or terms of similar meaning) shall have no force or effect.
LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 102



(c)    Right to Request and Act on Instructions; Liability of Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent may at any time request instructions from Lender with respect to any actions or approvals which by the terms of this Agreement or of any of the Loan Documents Administrative Agent is permitted or desires to take or to grant, and if such instructions are requested, Administrative Agent shall be absolutely entitled to refrain from taking any action or to withhold any approval and shall not be under any liability whatsoever to any Person for refraining from any action or withholding any approval under any of the Loan Documents until it shall have received such written instructions from Lender. Neither Administrative Agent nor any of its affiliates nor any of their respective 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 this Agreement or any borrowing hereunder; (ii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants or agreements of Borrower; or (iii) the validity, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any other instrument or writing furnished in connection herewith. Administrative Agent shall not incur any liability by acting in reliance upon any notice, consent, certificate, statement, or other writing (which may be a Lender wire, electronic transmission, portable document format or other similar writing) believed by it to be genuine or to be signed by the proper party or parties. As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement or any other Loan Document, Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, hereunder or thereunder in accordance with instructions given by Lenders, and such instructions of the Lenders and any action taken or not taken pursuant thereto shall be binding on all Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in the Loan Documents, Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities to Lender, except those expressly set forth herein or therein, or any fiduciary relationship with Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into the Loan Documents or otherwise exist against Administrative Agent and in favor of Lender. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in the Loan Documents, Administrative Agent shall not have any obligation whatsoever to incur any costs or make any protective advances with respect to the Loan, the Property or any other collateral for the Loan.
(d)    Conflicts. As between Administrative Agent and Lender, in the event of any conflict, ambiguity or inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any co-lender agreement entered into by Lender and Administrative Agent, the terms and conditions of such co-lender agreement shall control.

Section 8.4.     Modification, Waiver in Writing. No modification, amendment, extension, discharge, termination or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, or of the Note, or of any other Loan Document, nor consent to any departure by Borrower therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in a writing signed by the party against whom enforcement is sought, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance, and for the purpose, for which given. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no notice to, or demand on Borrower, shall entitle Borrower to any other or future notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances.

Section 8.9.     Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable Legal Requirements, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable Legal Requirements, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.
Section 8.10.     Preferences. Administrative Agent shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply or reverse and reapply any and all payments by Borrower to any portion of the Debt.

Section 8.11.     Waiver of Notice. Borrower hereby expressly waives, and shall not be entitled to, any notices of any nature whatsoever from Administrative Agent or Lender except with respect to matters for which this Agreement or the other Loan Documents specifically and expressly provide for the giving of notice by Administrative Agent to Borrower and except with respect to matters for which Borrower is not, pursuant to applicable Legal Requirements, permitted to waive the giving of notice. Borrower hereby expressly waives the right to receive any notice from Administrative Agent or Lender with respect to any matter for which this Agreement or the other Loan Documents do not specifically and expressly provide for the giving of notice by Administrative Agent to Borrower.
Section 8.12.     Remedies of Borrower. If a claim or adjudication is made that Administrative Agent, Lender or their agents have acted unreasonably or unreasonably delayed acting in any case where by law or under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, Administrative Agent, Lender or such agent, as the case may be, has an obligation to act reasonably or promptly, Borrower agrees that neither Administrative Agent, Lender nor their agents shall be liable for any monetary damages, and Borrower's sole remedies shall be limited to commencing an action seeking injunctive relief or declaratory judgment.

Section 8.13.     Schedules Incorporated. The Schedules and Exhibits annexed hereto are hereby incorporated herein as a part of this Agreement with the same effect as if set forth in the body hereof.
Section 8.14.     Offsets, Counterclaims and Defenses. Any assignee of Administrative Agent's or a Lender's interest in and to the Loan Documents shall take the same free and clear of all offsets, counterclaims or defenses which are unrelated to such documents which Borrower may otherwise have against any assignor of such documents, and no such unrelated counterclaim or defense shall be interposed or asserted by Borrower in any action or proceeding brought by any such assignee upon such documents and any such right to interpose or assert any such unrelated offset, counterclaim or defense in any such action or proceeding is hereby expressly waived by Borrower. Borrower hereby waives the right to assert (and agrees not to assert) a counterclaim of any nature, other than a compulsory counterclaim, in any action or proceeding
LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 107



brought against it by Administrative Agent or its agents or otherwise to offset any Obligations. No failure by Administrative Agent or a Lender to perform any of its obligations hereunder shall be a valid defense to, or result in any offset against, any payments that Borrower is obligated to make under any of the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower does not waive any of its rights to assert any claim which would constitute a defense, setoff, counterclaim or crossclaim of any nature whatsoever against Administrative Agent or a Lender, in either case, in any separate action or proceeding.
Section 8.15.     No Joint Venture or Partnership; No Third Party Beneficiaries. Borrower, Administrative Agent and Lender intend that the relationships created hereunder and under the other Loan Documents be solely that of debtor and creditor. Nothing herein or therein is intended to create a joint venture, partnership, tenancy-in-common, or joint tenancy relationship between Borrower, Administrative Agent and Lender, nor to grant Administrative Agent or Lender any interest in the Property other than that of mortgagee, beneficiary or lender (as applicable). This Agreement and the other Loan Documents are solely for the benefit of Administrative Agent, Lender and Borrower and nothing contained in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to confer upon anyone other than Administrative Agent and Borrower any right to insist upon or to enforce the performance or observance of any of the Obligations contained herein or therein. All conditions to the obligations of Lender to make the Loan hereunder are imposed solely and exclusively for the benefit of Lender and no other Person shall have standing to require satisfaction of such conditions in accordance with their terms or be entitled to assume that Lender will refuse to make the Loan (or that Administrative Agent will refuse to make any disbursement of amounts from the Reserve Accounts) in the absence of strict compliance with any or all thereof and no other Person shall under any circumstances be deemed to be a beneficiary of such conditions, any or all of which may be freely waived in whole or in part by Administrative Agent or Lender (as applicable) if, in Administrative Agent's or Lender's (as applicable) sole discretion, Administrative Agent or Lender (as applicable) deems it advisable or desirable to do so.
Section 8.16.     Publicity. All news releases, publicity or advertising by Borrower or its Affiliates through any media intended to reach the general public which refers to the Loan Documents or the financing evidenced by the Loan Documents, to Lender, Administrative Agent, or to any of its Affiliates shall be subject to the prior approval of Administrative Agent.
Section 8.17.     Waiver of Marshalling of Assets. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Borrower, for itself and its successors and assigns, waives all rights to a marshalling of the assets of Borrower, Borrower's partners and others with interests in Borrower, and of the Property, or to a sale in inverse order of alienation in the event of foreclosure of the Security Instrument, and agrees not to assert any right under any laws pertaining to the marshalling of assets, the sale in inverse order of alienation, homestead exemption, the administration of estates of decedents, or any other matters whatsoever to defeat, reduce or affect the right of Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents to a sale of the Property for the collection of the Debt without any prior or different resort for collection or of the right of Administrative Agent to the payment of the Debt out of the net proceeds of the Property in preference to every other claimant whatsoever.
Section 8.18.     Conflict; Construction of Documents; Reliance. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and any of the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Agreement shall control. The parties hereto acknowledge that they were represented by competent counsel in connection with the negotiation, drafting and execution of the Loan Documents and that such Loan Documents shall not be subject to the principle of construing their meaning against the party that drafted same. Borrower acknowledges that, with respect to the Loan, Borrower shall rely solely on its own judgment and advisors in entering into the Loan without relying in any manner on any statements, representations or recommendations of Lender or Administrative Agent, or any parent, subsidiary or Affiliate of Lender or
LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 108



Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any limitation whatsoever in the exercise of any rights or remedies available to it under any of the Loan Documents or any other agreements or instruments which govern the Loan by virtue of the ownership by Lender, it or any parent, subsidiary or Affiliate of Lender or Administrative Agent of any equity interest any of them may acquire in Borrower, and Borrower hereby irrevocably waives the right to raise any defense or take any action on the basis of the foregoing with respect to Administrative Agent's exercise of any such rights or remedies. Borrower acknowledges that Administrative Agent and Lender engage in the business of real estate financings and other real estate transactions and investments that may be viewed as adverse to or competitive with the business of Borrower or its Affiliates.
Section 8.19.     Brokers and Financial Advisors. Borrower hereby represents that, except for JLL, the fees of which shall be paid solely by Borrower,] it has dealt with no financial advisors, brokers, underwriters, placement agents, agents or finders in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Borrower shall indemnify, defend and hold Administrative Agent and Lender harmless from and against any and all claims, liabilities, costs and expenses of any kind (including attorneys' fees and expenses) in any way relating to or arising from a claim by any Person that such Person acted directly or indirectly, by or on behalf of Guarantor, Borrower or any Affiliate thereof or was retained directly or indirectly, by or on behalf of Guarantor, Borrower or any Affiliate thereof in connection with the transactions contemplated herein. The provisions of this Section 8.19 shall survive the expiration and termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Debt.
Section 8.20.     Prior Agreements. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents contain the entire agreement of the parties hereto and thereto in respect of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and all prior agreements among or between such parties or their Affiliates or representatives concerning the transactions contemplated hereby, whether oral or written, are superseded by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
Section 8.21.     Time is of the Essence. Time is of the essence of each provision of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
Section 8.22.     Certain Additional Rights of Administrative Agent (VCOC). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Administrative Agent shall have: (a) the right to routinely consult with and advise Borrower's management regarding the significant business activities and business and financial developments of Borrower; provided, however, that such consultations shall not include discussions of environmental compliance programs or disposal of hazardous substances. Consultation meetings should occur on a regular basis (no less frequently than quarterly) with Administrative Agent having the right to call special meetings at any reasonable times and upon reasonable advance notice; (b) the right, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, to examine the books and records of Borrower at any reasonable times upon reasonable notice; (c) the right, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, including Section 5.1.6 hereof, to receive monthly, quarterly and year-end financial reports, including balance sheets, statements of income, shareholder's equity and cash flow, a management report and schedules of outstanding Indebtedness; and (d) the right, without restricting any other rights of Administrative Agent under this Agreement (including any similar right), to approve any acquisition by Borrower of any other significant property (other than personal property required for the day to day operation of the Property). The rights described above in this Section 8.22 may be exercised by Lender or any entity which owns and Controls, directly or indirectly, substantially all of the interests in Lender or Administrative Agent.
Section 8.23.     Duplicate Originals, Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of duplicate originals and each duplicate original shall be deemed to be an original
LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 109



and all of which together shall constitute a single agreement. The failure of any party hereto to execute this Agreement, or any counterpart hereof, shall relieve the other signatories from their obligations hereunder.
Section 8.24.     Prepayment Charges. Borrower acknowledges that (a) Lender is making the Loan in consideration of the receipt by Lender of all interest and other benefits intended to be conferred by the Loan Documents that is not prepayable except as provided in Sections 2.3.4 and 2.3.5, and (b) if payments of principal are made to a Lender prior to the regularly scheduled due date for such payment, for any reason whatsoever, whether voluntary, as a result of Administrative Agent's acceleration of the Loan during the existence of an Event of Default, by operation of law or otherwise, Lender will not receive all such interest and other benefits and may, in addition, incur costs and expenses. For these reasons, and to induce Lender to make the Loan, Borrower expressly waives any right or privilege to prepay the Loan except as otherwise may be specifically permitted herein and agrees that, except for any prepayment that is expressly permitted to be made pursuant to this Agreement without the payment of the Exit Fee and Minimum Multiple (as applicable), all prepayments, if any, whether voluntary or involuntary, will be accompanied by the Exit Fee and Minimum Multiple (as applicable), which shall constitute additional interest. Such Exit Fee and Minimum Multiple (as applicable) shall be required whether payment is made by Borrower, by a Person on behalf of Borrower, or by the purchaser at any foreclosure sale, and may be included in any bid by Lender at such sale. Borrower further acknowledges that (i) it is a knowledgeable real estate developer or investor, (ii) it fully understands the effect of the provisions of this Section 8.24, as well as the other provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (iii) the making of the Loan by Lender at the Interest Rate and other terms set forth in the Loan Documents are sufficient consideration for Borrower's obligation to pay the Exit Fee and Minimum Multiple (as applicable), and (iv) Lender would not make the Loan on the terms set forth herein without the inclusion of such provisions. Borrower also acknowledges that the provisions of this Agreement limiting the right of prepayment and providing for the payment of the Exit Fee and Minimum Multiple (as applicable) and other charges specified herein were independently negotiated and bargained for and constitute a specific material part of the consideration given by Borrower to Lender for the making of the Loan except as expressly permitted hereunder.
Section 8.25.     Registrar. Borrower (or its duly authorized agent; Borrower hereby appointing Administrative Agent as its agent for such purpose) (the "Registrar") shall maintain or cause to be maintained a registry of the ownership of the Note(s) at its principal office. The Registrar shall act solely as an agent of Borrower and shall maintain, subject to such reasonable regulations as it shall provide, such books and records (the "Register") as are necessary for the registration and transfer of the Note in a manner that shall cause the Note(s) to be considered to be in "registered form" within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Code and any related regulations (and any other relevant or successor provisions of the Code or such regulations). In connection with the foregoing: (i) the Register shall reflect the applicable Lender as the original owner of the Note(s), (ii) the Register shall reflect such subsequent transferees as the Registrar shall receive notice of, by delivery to it of a notice of an assignment of such Note, duly executed by the then current owner thereof, (iii) the Registrar shall record the name and address of Lender and the amount of principal (and stated interest) owing to Lender under this Agreement, (iv) Borrower and Administrative Agent shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. Failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect Borrower's or Lender's obligations in respect of such Loan. Any Lender that sells a participation under Section 7.1 shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of Borrower, maintain or cause to be maintained a registry including the name and address of each participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each participant's interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the "Participant Register"); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to
LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 110



disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any participant or any information relating to a participant's interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. Failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect Borrower's or any Lender's obligations in respect of such Loan. Administrative Agent shall treat the person in whose name any participation is registered as the owner thereof for the purpose of receiving all payments thereon and for all other purposes.
Section 8.26.     Multiple Property Provisions.
(a)    Additional Waivers. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Borrower, for itself and its successors and assigns, waives all rights to a marshalling of the assets of Borrower, Borrower's partners and others with interests in Borrower, and of the Property, or to a sale in inverse order of alienation in the event of foreclosure of all or any of the Security Instruments, and agrees not to assert any right under any laws pertaining to the marshalling of assets, the sale in inverse order of alienation, homestead exemption, the administration of estates of decedents, or any other matters whatsoever to defeat, reduce or affect the right of Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents to a sale of the Property for the collection of the Loan without any prior or different resort for collection or of the right of Administrative Agent to the payment of the Debt out of the net proceeds of the Property in preference to every other claimant whatsoever. In addition, to the fullest extent permitted by law, Borrower, for itself and its successors and assigns, waives in the event of foreclosure of any or all of the Security Instruments, any equitable right otherwise available to Borrower which would require the separate sale of any portion of the Property or require Administrative Agent to exhaust its remedies against any Individual Component or any combination of the Individual Components before proceeding against any other Individual Component or combination of Individual Components; and further in the event of such foreclosure Borrower does hereby expressly consent to and authorize, at the option of Administrative Agent, the foreclosure and sale either separately or together of any combination of the Individual Components.
(b)    Cross-Collateralization. Borrower acknowledges that Lender has made the Loan to Borrower upon the security of its collective interest in the Property and in reliance upon the aggregate of the Property taken together being of greater value as collateral security than the sum of each Individual Component taken separately. Borrower agrees that the Security Instruments are and will be cross-collateralized and cross-defaulted with each other so that (i) an Event of Default under any of the Security Instruments shall constitute an Event of Default under each of the other Security Instruments which secure the Note; (ii) an Event of Default under the Note or this Agreement shall constitute an Event of Default under each Security Instrument; (iii) each Security Instrument shall constitute security for the Note as if a single blanket lien were placed on all of the Individual Components as security for the Obligations; and (iv) such cross-collateralization shall in no event be deemed to constitute a fraudulent conveyance.
(c)    Portfolio Loan. Borrower agrees that at any time Administrative Agent shall have the unilateral right to elect to remove the cross-collateralization of the liens of the Security Instrument encumbering any one (1) or more of the Individual Components (individually or collectively, as the context may require, the "Affected Property"). In furtherance thereof, Administrative Agent shall have the right to (i) sever or divide the Note and the other Loan Documents in order to allocate to such Affected Property the Allocated Loan Amount evidenced by one (1) or more new notes and secured by such other loan documents (individually or collectively, as the context may require, the "New Note") having a principal amount equal to the Allocated Loan Amount applicable to such Affected Property, (ii) segregate the applicable portion of each of the Reserve Accounts relating to the Affected Property, (iii) release any cross-
LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 111



default and/or cross-collateralization provisions applicable to such Affected Property, and (iv) take such additional action consistent therewith; provided, that such New Note secured by such Affected Property, together with the Loan Documents secured by the remaining Individual Components, shall not increase in the aggregate (A) any monetary obligation of Borrower under the Loan Documents or (B) any other obligation of Borrower under the Loan Documents in any material respect. In connection with the transfer of any such Affected Property as provided for in this Section, the Loan shall be reduced by an amount equal to amount of the New Note applicable to such Affected Property and the new loan secured by such Affected Property and evidenced by the New Note shall be in an amount equal to such Allocated Loan Amount. Subsequent to the release of the Affected Property from the lien of the Loan pursuant to this Section, the balances of the components of the Loan shall be the same as they would have been had a prepayment occurred in an amount equal to the Allocated Loan Amount of the Affected Property.
Section 8.27.     Multiple Borrower Provisions.
(a)    References. All references to "Borrower" in this Agreement shall be deemed to refer to one or more Borrowers (each, an "Individual Borrower"), as the context requires. It is the intent of the parties hereto in making any determination under the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, in determining whether (a) a breach of a representation, warranty or a covenant has occurred, (b) there has occurred an Event of Default, and (c) an event has occurred which would create recourse obligations under Article 6 hereof) that any breach, occurrence or event with respect to any Individual Borrower shall be deemed to be a breach, occurrence or event with respect to all Individual Borrowers, and that all Individual Borrowers need not have been involved with or be the subject of such breach, occurrence or event in order for the same to be deemed such a breach, occurrence or event with respect to every Individual Borrower and the Loan.
(b)    Joint and Several Liability. Each Individual Borrower shall be jointly and severally liable for payment of the Debt and performance of all other obligations of all Borrowers (or any of them) under this Agreement and any other Loan Document, and the making of each of the representations, warranties, covenants and obligations under the Loan Document by Borrower.
(c)    Contribution. Each Individual Borrower will benefit, directly and indirectly, from each Individual Borrower's obligation to pay the Debt and perform its obligations under the Loan Documents. In consideration therefor, Individual Borrowers desire to enter into an allocation and contribution agreement among themselves as set forth in this Section 8.27 to allocate such benefits among themselves and to provide a fair and equitable agreement to make contributions among each of the Individual Borrowers in the event any payment is made by any Individual Borrower hereunder to Administrative Agent (any such payment, a "Contribution"). In order to provide for a fair and equitable contribution among Individual Borrowers in the event that any Contribution is made by an Individual Borrower (a "Funding Borrower"), such Funding Borrower shall be entitled to a reimbursement Contribution ("Reimbursement Contribution") from all other Individual Borrowers for all payments, damages and expenses incurred by such Funding Borrower in discharging any of the Debt, in the manner and to the extent set forth in this Section 8.27. Each Individual Borrower shall be liable to a Funding Borrower in an amount equal to the greater of (i) (A) the ratio of the Benefit Amount (as defined below) of such Individual Borrower to the total amount of Debt, multiplied by (B) the amount of the Debt paid by such Funding Borrower, and (ii) ninety-five percent (95%) of the excess of (A) the fair saleable value of such Individual Borrower's interest in the Property and the other collateral for the Loan, over (B) the total liabilities of such Individual Borrower (including the maximum amount reasonably expected to become due in respect of contingent liabilities) determined as of the date on which the payment made by a Funding Borrower is deemed made for purposes hereof
LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 112



(giving effect to all payments made by other Funding Borrowers as of such date in a manner to maximize the amount of such Contributions). For purposes hereof, the "Benefit Amount" of any Individual Borrower as of any date of determination shall be the net value of the benefits to such Individual Borrower and its Affiliates from extensions of credit made by Lender to (1) such Individual Borrower and (2) the other Individual Borrowers hereunder and the other Loan Document. In addition:
(i)    If at any time there exists more than one Funding Borrower with respect to any Contribution (in any such case, the "Applicable Contribution"), then Reimbursement Contributions from other Individual Borrowers shall be allocated among such Funding Borrowers in proportion to the total amount of the Contribution made for or on account of the other Individual Borrowers by each such Funding Borrower pursuant to the Applicable Contribution. If at any time any Individual Borrower pays an amount hereunder in excess of the amount calculated pursuant to this Section 8.27, such Individual Borrower shall be deemed to be a Funding Borrower to the extent of such excess and shall be entitled to a Reimbursement Contribution from the other Individual Borrowers in accordance with the provisions of this Section.
(ii)    Each Individual Borrower acknowledges that the right to Reimbursement Contribution hereunder shall constitute an asset in favor of such Individual Borrower to which such Reimbursement Contribution is owing.
(iii)    No Reimbursement Contribution payments payable by an Individual Borrower pursuant to the terms of this Section 8.27 shall be paid until all amounts then due and payable by all of Individual Borrowers to Administrative Agent, pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents, are paid in full. Nothing contained in this Section 8.27 shall limit or affect the Debt of any Individual Borrower to Administrative Agent or Lender under the Note or any other Loan Documents.
(iv)    Any indebtedness of a Borrower now or hereafter owed to any other Borrower (the "Surety") is hereby is subordinated to the Obligations owed to Administrative Agent and Lender under the Loan Documents. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, if Administrative Agent so requests, any such indebtedness of a Borrower now or hereafter owed to any Surety shall be collected, enforced and received by such Surety as trustee for Administrative Agent and shall be paid over to Administrative Agent in kind on account of the Obligations, but without reducing or affecting in any manner the obligations of such Surety under the other provisions of this Agreement. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, should such Surety fail to collect or enforce any such indebtedness of a Borrower now or hereafter owed to such Surety and pay the proceeds thereof to Administrative Agent in accordance with this subsection, Administrative Agent as such Surety's attorney in fact may do such acts and sign such documents in such Surety's name as Administrative Agent considers necessary or desirable to effect such collection, enforcement and/or payment. Until the Obligations shall have been paid and performed in full, all the rights, privileges, powers and remedies granted to Administrative Agent hereunder shall continue to exist and may be exercised by Administrative Agent at any time and from time to time irrespective of the fact that any of the Obligations may have become barred by any statute of limitations. Each Borrower, in its capacity as Surety, expressly waives the benefit of any and all statutes of limitation, and any and all laws providing for exemption of property from execution or for evaluation and appraisal upon foreclosure, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements.
(v)    Each Borrower, in its capacity as a Surety, acknowledges that the obligations undertaken herein involve the payment of obligations of persons or entities other than such Surety and, in full recognition of that fact, consents and agrees (and waives any right to
LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 113



object) that Administrative Agent may, at any time and from time to time, without notice or demand, and without affecting the enforceability or continuing effectiveness hereof, in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents: (A) supplement, modify, amend, extend, renew, accelerate or otherwise change the time for payment or the terms of the Obligations or any part thereof, including any increase or decrease of the rate(s) of interest thereon; (B) supplement, modify, amend or waive, or enter into or give any agreement, approval or consent with respect to, the Obligations or any part thereof, or any of the Loan Documents to which such Surety is not a party or any additional security or guaranties, or any condition, covenant, default, remedy, right, representation or term thereof or thereunder; (C) accept new or additional instruments, documents or agreements in exchange for or relative to any of the Loan Documents or the Obligations or any part thereof; (D) accept partial payments on the Obligations; (E) receive and hold additional security or guaranties for the Obligations or any part thereof; (F) release, reconvey, terminate, waive, abandon, fail to perfect, subordinate, exchange, substitute, transfer and/or enforce any security or guaranties, and apply any security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as Administrative Agent in its sole and absolute discretion may determine; (G) release any party from any personal liability with respect to the Obligations or any part thereof; (H) settle, release on terms satisfactory to Administrative Agent or by operation of applicable Legal Requirements or otherwise liquidate or enforce any Obligations and any security or guaranty therefor in any manner, consent to the transfer of any security and bid and purchase at any sale; and/or (I) consent to the merger, change or any other restructuring or termination of the entity existence of other Borrowers or any other party, and correspondingly restructure the Obligations, and any such merger, change, restructuring or termination shall not affect the liability of any Borrower or the continuing effectiveness hereof, or the enforceability hereof with respect to all or any part of the Obligations.
(vi)    In the event, on account of the Bankruptcy Reform Act of 1978, as amended, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, or any other debtor relief law (whether statutory, common law, case law or otherwise) of any jurisdiction whatsoever, including, without limitation, Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code and any state fraudulent transfer or fraudulent conveyance act or statute applied in such proceeding, whether by virtue of Section 544 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise (collectively, "Bankruptcy Laws"), now or hereafter in effect, which may be or become applicable, any Borrower shall be relieved of or fail to incur any debt, obligation or liability as provided herein or in any other Loan Documents to which such Borrower is a party, the other Borrowers shall nevertheless be fully liable therefor. Each Borrower, Lender and Administrative Agent hereby confirm that it is the intention of all parties hereto that the obligations of each Borrower hereunder, under each Security Instrument, and each other Loan Documents not constitute a fraudulent transfer or fraudulent conveyance for the purposes of any Bankruptcy Laws (a "Fraudulent Conveyance"). To give effect to the foregoing intention of the parties, each of such parties hereby irrevocably agrees that the obligations of each Borrower to Administrative Agent and Lender shall at all times be limited to (but shall not be less than) such maximum amount as will, after giving effect to the maximum amount of such obligations and all other liabilities (whether contingent or otherwise) of such Borrower that are relevant under such Bankruptcy Laws, result in the obligations of such Borrower not constituting a Fraudulent Conveyance as of the date of execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other documents contemplated hereby (provided, however, that the foregoing shall not in any way limit the obligations of any Borrower to Administrative Agent and Lender pursuant to the Loan Documents in effect prior to the Effective Date). The provisions of this clause (vi) are intended solely to preserve the rights of Administrative Agent and Lender hereunder to the maximum extent that would not cause the obligations of any Borrower hereunder to be subject to avoidance as a Fraudulent Conveyance, and no Borrower or any other Person shall have any right or claim under this clause (vi) as against Administrative Agent or Lender that would not otherwise be available to such Person under Bankruptcy Laws.
LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 114



(vii)    Each Borrower warrants and agrees that each of the waivers and consents set forth herein are made with full knowledge of their significance and consequences, with the understanding that events giving rise to any defense or right waived may diminish, destroy or otherwise adversely affect rights which such Borrower otherwise may have against other Borrowers, Lender, Administrative Agent or others, or against any collateral, and that, under the circumstances, the waivers and consents herein given are reasonable and not contrary to public policy or law. Each Borrower acknowledges that it has either consulted with legal counsel regarding the effect of this Agreement and the waivers and consents set forth herein, or has made an informed decision not to do so.

Upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in this Agreement, Administrative Agent hereby consents to the deposit of the Right of First Negotiation Deposit into a Reserve Account with Lender to be held by Administrative Agent while Administrative Agent and Borrower discuss the potential terms of the Hotel Component Financing. The consent contained in this Section 1.1 is a one-time limited consent and (a) shall only be relied upon and used solely for the specific purposes set forth herein, (b) shall not constitute nor be deemed to constitute a waiver of (1) any Default or Event of Default (other than, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, any Default or Event of Default that would result solely from the failure to make any of the Deferred Payments, as and to the extent expressly permitted under this Agreement), or (2) any other term or condition of the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (c) shall not constitute nor be deemed to constitute a consent by Administrative Agent to, or a waiver by Administrative Agent of, anything other than as expressly set forth herein, and (d) shall not constitute a custom or course of dealing among the parties hereto. Upon the failure by any Obligor whatsoever to perform any obligation or condition in this Agreement (beyond any applicable notice and cure period, if any), Obligors shall immediately and automatically (without any notice or demand from Administrative Agent) cease to be entitled to any privileges set forth in this Agreement and Administrative Agent shall have the right to pursue all rights and remedies hereunder, and under the Loan Documents and/or applicable law and equity, as if no such privileges were ever provided (such that an Event of Default shall be deemed to exist as of the date upon which Obligors were first provided with such privileges hereunder (i.e., as of September 8, 2020) (the “Deferral Commencement Date”), and such rights and remedies shall include, without limitation, charging interest at the Default Rate retroactively from and after the Deferral Commencement Date).

(b)    In the event that, as of the Hotel Component Financing Agreement Deadline, Borrower and Administrative Agent have not reached agreeable terms for the Hotel Component Financing, Borrower shall be afforded up to an additional thirty (30) days from and after the Hotel Component Financing Deadline within which to secure and close a refinance of the Loan with an alternate third party lender (the “Loan Refinancing Deadline”), and upon the earlier to occur of (i) the date of the closing of any refinancing of the Loan, or (ii) the Loan Refinancing Deadline (whether or not Borrower is able to secure and close a refinance of the Loan with an alternate third party lender), Administrative Agent shall have the absolute right to apply the Right of First Negotiation Deposit to the repayment of the Debt in accordance with Section 2.3.1 of the Loan Agreement, and Borrower shall pay (x) all accrued and unpaid interest on the amount of the principal being repaid, plus (y) the Exit Fee due on the portion of principal being so prepaid hereunder, plus (z) all of Administrative Agent's out of pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with such prepayment (including reasonable attorneys' fees).

If, and solely to the extent that, as of the Deferred Maturity Date, Borrower shall have satisfied all of the Extension Conditions, Borrower shall retain the right to extend the term of the Loan from the Payment Date in November, 2022 until no later than the Payment Date in September, 2023.
1.3     Amendments to Loan Documents.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Loan Agreement, Borrower shall not otherwise be required as of the February 2023 Maturity Date to either (i) extend or maintain an Interest Rate Cap Agreement or (ii) achieve a Debt Yield of at least ten percent (10.0%), in each case, as a condition to Administrative Agent’s agreement to defer the February 2023 Maturity Date. If, and solely to the extent that, as of the Deferred Maturity Date, Borrower shall have satisfied all of the Extension Conditions, Borrower shall retain the right to extend the term of the Loan from the Payment Date in May, 2023, until no later than the Payment Date in September, 2023.
1.3    Amendments to Loan Documents.
(a)    Obligors acknowledge and agree that Section 5.1 of each Loan Agreement (Affirmative Covenants) is hereby amended to insert all of the covenants set forth in Schedule 1 to this Agreement as additional affirmative covenants under such section.
