1. Organization and Description of Business

Douglas Emmett, Inc, a Maryland corporation formed on June 28, 2005, is a fully integrated, self-administered, and self-managed Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT).  We did not have any meaningful operating activity until the consummation of our initial public offering (IPO) and the related acquisition of our predecessor and certain other entities on October 30, 2006.  Through our interest in Douglas Emmett Properties, LP (our operating partnership) and its subsidiaries, we own, manage, lease, acquire and develop real estate.  As of March 31, 2008, we owned a portfolio of 55 office properties (including ancillary retail space) and nine multifamily properties, as well as the fee interests in two parcels of land that we lease to third parties.  All of these properties are located in Los Angeles County, California and Honolulu, Hawaii.  We qualified as a REIT for federal income tax purposes beginning with our initial taxable year ending December 31, 2006 and expect to maintain such qualification.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007 and for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 are the consolidated financial statements of Douglas Emmett, Inc. and its subsidiaries including our operating partnership.  All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.  Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform with current period presentation.

 
Unaudited Interim Financial Information
 
 
The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Certain information and footnote disclosure normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) may have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although we believe that the disclosures are adequate to make the presentation not misleading. The accompanying unaudited financial statements include, in our opinion, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the financial information set forth therein. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2008. The interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007 and notes thereto.  Any reference to the number of properties and square footage are unaudited and outside the scope of our independent registered public accounting firm’s review of our financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).
 

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make certain estimates and assumptions, for example with respect to the allocation of the purchase price of acquisitions among land, buildings, improvements, equipment and any related intangible assets and liabilities.  These estimates and assumptions are subjective and affect the reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, we consider short-term investments with maturities of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.

Interest Rate Contracts

We manage our interest rate risk associated with borrowings by obtaining interest rate swap and interest rate cap contracts. No other derivative instruments were used.

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (FAS) No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (FAS 133), as amended and interpreted, establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities.  As required by FAS 133, we record all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value.  The accounting for changes in the fair value of derivatives depends on the intended use of the derivative and the resulting designation. Derivatives used to hedge the exposure to changes in the fair value of an asset, liability, or firm commitment attributable to a particular risk, are considered fair value hedges. Derivatives used to hedge the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows, or other types of forecasted transactions, are considered cash flow hedges.

Our objective in using derivatives is to add stability to interest expense and to manage our exposure to interest rate movements or other identified risks.  To accomplish this objective, we primarily use interest rate swaps as part of our cash flow hedging strategy.  Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts in exchange for fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying principal amount.  For derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is initially reported in other comprehensive income (outside of earnings) and subsequently reclassified to earnings when the hedged transaction affects earnings.  The ineffective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recognized directly in earnings.  We assess the effectiveness of each hedging relationship by comparing the changes in fair value or cash flows of the derivative hedging instrument with the changes in fair value or cash flows of the designated hedged item or transaction. For derivatives not designated as hedges, changes in fair value are recognized in earnings.  See Note 8 for the accounting of our interest rate hedges.
 
Income Taxes
 
We elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) commencing with our initial taxable year ending December 31, 2006. To qualify as a REIT, we are required to distribute at least 90% of our REIT taxable income to our stockholders and meet the various other requirements imposed by the Code related to such matters as operating results, asset holdings, distribution levels and diversity of stock ownership. Provided we qualify for taxation as a REIT, we generally will not be subject to corporate-level income tax on the earnings distributed currently to our stockholders that we derive from our REIT qualifying activities. We will be subject to corporate-level tax on the earnings we derive through our taxable REIT subsidiary (TRS). If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, and are unable to avail ourselves of certain savings provisions set forth in the Code, all of our taxable income would be subject to federal income tax at regular corporate rates, including any applicable alternative minimum tax.

In addition, we will be subject to taxation by various state and local (and potentially foreign) jurisdictions, including those in which we transact business or reside.  Our predecessor was an S-Corporation and the institutional funds it sponsored were limited partnerships. Our non-TRS subsidiaries, including the operating partnership, are either partnerships or disregarded entities for federal income tax purposes.  Under applicable federal and state income tax rules, the allocated share of net income or loss from the limited partnerships and S-Corporation is reportable in the income tax returns of the respective partners and stockholders.  Accordingly, no income tax provision is included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements other than the 1.5% tax due on taxable income of S-Corporations in the State of California attributable to periods prior to our formation transactions.
 
Earnings Per Share (EPS)
 
Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the net income applicable to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is calculated by dividing the net income applicable to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of common and dilutive instruments outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method.  Since we were in a net loss position during the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2008, all potentially dilutive instruments are anti-dilutive and have been excluded from our computation of weighted average dilutive shares outstanding.
 
Recently Issued Accounting Literature

In February 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115.  This standard permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value and is effective for the first fiscal year beginning after November 15, 2007, which for us means 2008.  We did not elect the fair value measurement option for any financial assets or liabilities during the first quarter of 2008, nor do we currently expect to elect this option for any financial assets or liabilities in the near future.

In December 2007, the FASB issued FAS No. 160, Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements-an Amendment of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51 (FAS 160).  FAS 160 establishes new accounting and reporting standards for a non-controlling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary.  Specifically, this statement requires the recognition of a non-controlling interest (minority interest) as equity in the consolidated financial statements separate from the parent’s equity.  The amount of net income attributable to the non-controlling interest will be included in consolidated net income on the face of the income statement.  FAS 160 clarifies that changes in a parent’s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in deconsolidation are equity transactions if the parent retains its controlling financial interest.  In addition, this statement requires that a parent recognize a gain or loss in net income when a subsidiary is deconsolidated.  Such gain or loss will be measured using the fair value of the non-controlling equity investment on the deconsolidation date.  FAS 160 also includes expanded disclosure requirements regarding the interests of the parent and its non-controlling interest. FAS 160 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008, which for us means 2009.  We are currently evaluating the impact that FAS 160 will have on our financial statements.

In December 2007, the FASB issued FAS No. 141 (Revised 2007), Business Combinations (FAS 141R).  FAS 141R will significantly change the accounting for business combinations.  Under FAS 141R, an acquiring entity will be required to recognize all the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a transaction at the acquisition-date fair value with limited exceptions.  FAS 141R also includes a substantial number of new disclosure requirements.  FAS 141R applies prospectively to business combinations occurring in any reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008, which for us means 2009.  We are currently evaluating the impact that FAS 141R will have on our financial statements.

On January 1, 2008, we adopted FAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (FAS 157).  FAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.  FAS 157 applies to reported balances that are required or permitted to be measured at fair value under existing accounting pronouncements; accordingly, the standard does not require any new fair value measurements of reported balances.  FAS 157 emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement.  Therefore, a fair value measurement should be determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.  As a basis for considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, FAS 157 establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between market participant assumptions based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity (observable inputs that are classified within Levels 1 and 2 of the hierarchy) and the reporting entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions (unobservable inputs classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy).  Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that we have the ability to access. Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs may include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, as well as inputs that are observable for the asset or liability (other than quoted prices), such as interest rates, foreign exchange rates, and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.

Currently, we use interest rate swaps and caps to manage interest rate risk resulting from variable interest payments on our floating rate debt.  The valuation of these instruments is determined using widely accepted valuation techniques including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and implied volatilities.

To comply with the provisions of FAS 157, we incorporate credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both our own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements.  In adjusting the fair value of our derivative contracts for the effect of nonperformance risk, we considered the impact of netting and any applicable credit enhancements, such as collateral postings, thresholds, mutual puts, and guarantees.  We have determined that our derivative valuations in their entirety are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.  We do not have any fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) as of March 31, 2008.

The table below presents the assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2008, aggregated by the level in the fair value hierarchy within which those measurements fall.

3. Acquisitions
 
On March 26, 2008, we acquired a 1.4 million square foot office portfolio consisting of six Class “A” buildings all located in our core Los Angeles submarkets – Santa Monica, Beverly Hills, Sherman Oaks/Encino and Warner Center/Woodland Hills – for a contract price of approximately $610 million.  An affiliate of the seller provided $380 million of first trust deed bridge financing at a floating rate of LIBOR plus 200 basis points for nine months.
 
 
On February 13, 2008, we acquired a two-thirds interest in a 78,298 square-foot office building located in Honolulu, Hawaii.  As part of the same transaction, we also acquired all of the assets of The Honolulu Club, a private membership athletic and social club, which is located in the building.  The aggregate contract price was approximately $18 million and the purchase was made in a consolidated joint venture with our local partner.  The joint venture financed the acquisition with an $18 million loan at a floating interest rate of LIBOR plus 125 basis points.  The loan has a term of two years with a one-year extension.
 
 
The results of operations for the acquired properties are included in our consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2008 since the date of acquisition.  We acquired these properties near the end of the quarter, and as such, the following table represents our preliminary purchase price allocation.  These amounts are likely to change based on a more thorough calculation to be performed during the one-year purchase accounting window provided under the relevant accounting standards.  We did not acquire any properties during the first three months of 2007.

We incurred deferred loan cost amortization expense of $362 and $249 for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.  The deferred loan cost amortization is included as a component of interest expense in the consolidated statements of operations.

5. Minimum Future Lease Rentals

 We have leased space to tenants primarily under noncancelable operating leases, which generally contain provisions for a base rent plus reimbursement for certain operating expenses. Operating expense reimbursements are reflected in our consolidated statements of operations as tenant recoveries.

We have leased space to certain tenants under noncancelable leases, which provide for percentage rents based upon tenant revenues. Percentage rental income for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 totaled $244 and $264, respectively.

Future minimum base rentals on noncancelable office and ground operating leases at March 31, 2008 are as follows:

April 1, 2008 to December 31, 2008
$
383,171

The above future minimum lease payments exclude residential leases, which typically have a term of one year or less, as well as tenant reimbursements, amortization of deferred rent receivables and above/below-market lease intangibles. Some leases are subject to termination options. In general, these leases provide for termination payments should the termination options be exercised. The preceding table is prepared assuming such options are not exercised.

7. Secured Notes Payable

During the first quarter of 2008, we borrowed an additional $623 million of long-term variable rate debt, as follows:

·  
We obtained a $380 million bridge loan from an affiliate of the seller in the March 2008 acquisitions described in Note 3.  This loan has an interest rate of LIBOR plus 200 basis points and a nine-month term.

·  
We obtained a non-recourse $340 million term loan secured by four of our previously unencumbered office properties.  This loan bears interest at a floating rate equal to LIBOR plus 150 basis points, but we have entered into interest rate swap contracts that effectively fix the interest rate at 4.84%, effective in the second quarter of 2008 until January 2, 2013.  This loan facility matures on April 1, 2015.  Proceeds from this loan were utilized to repay our secured revolving credit facility and for general corporate purposes.  At March 31, 2008, $225 million was outstanding, leaving $115 million available to us under this loan.  See Note 13.

·  
The joint venture, in which we have a two-thirds interest, obtained an $18 million loan that financed the February 2008 acquisition described in Note 3.  This loan has an interest rate of LIBOR plus 125 basis points and a two-year term with a one-year extension.

Secured by seven separate cross collateralized pools.  Requires monthly payments of interest only, with outstanding principal due upon maturity.
(3)
Includes $1.11 billion swapped to 4.89% until August 1, 2010; $545.0 million swapped to 5.75% until December 1, 2010; $322.5 million swapped to 4.98% until August 1, 2011; and $322.5 million swapped to 5.02% until August 1, 2012.
(4)
Represents a $340 million loan facility, of which $225 million was funded on March 18, 2008.  The remaining $115 million will be funded on May 1, 2008.  Secured by four properties in a separate cross-collateralized pool.  Requires monthly payments of interest only, with outstanding principal due upon maturity.
(5)
During the first quarter, we entered into interest rate swap contracts that effectively fix the interest rate on this $340 million facility at 4.84% (or 4.77% on an actual/360-day basis) effective in the second quarter of 2008.
(6)
Secured by four separate collateralized pools.  Fannie Mae Discount Mortgage-Backed Security (DMBS) generally tracks 90-day LIBOR.
(7)
As of March 31, 2008, the weighted average remaining life of our total outstanding debt is 4.3 years, and the weighted average remaining life of the interest rate swaps is 3.0 years.  Adjusting for the $340 million of swaps that take effect in the second quarter of 2008, the weighted average remaining life of the interest rate swaps is 3.2 years.  These swaps lower the overall effective hedged rate of 5.20% at March 31, 2008 to 5.18% (based on actual/365-day basis).
(8)
This loan is carried by a consolidated joint venture formed in 2008, of which our Operating Partnership owns a two-thirds interest.
(9)
This credit facility is secured by nine properties and has two-one year extension options available.
(10)
This revolver bears interest at either LIBOR +0.70% or Fed Funds +0.95% at our election.  If the amount outstanding exceeds $262.5 million, the credit facility bears interest at either LIBOR +0.80% or Fed Funds +1.05% at our election.

Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility
We have a $370 million revolving credit facility.  Our secured revolving credit facility is with a group of banks led by Bank of America, NA and Banc of America Securities, LLC, and bears interest at a rate per annum equal to either LIBOR plus 70 basis points or Federal Funds Rate plus 95 basis points if the amount outstanding is $262.5 million or less and at either LIBOR plus 80 basis points or Federal Funds Rate plus 105 basis points if the amount outstanding is greater than $262.5 million. Our secured revolving credit facility contains an accordion feature that allows us to increase the availability by an additional $130 million, to $500 million, under specified circumstances.  The facility bears interest at 15 basis points on the undrawn balance.  The facility expires in 2009 with two one-year extensions at our option.


8. Interest Rate Contracts

We have executed interest rate swaps with a notional amount of $3.2 billion to protect against interest rate fluctuations on our existing variable-rate term loan facilities, including $340 million executed in the first quarter of 2008.  These derivatives were designated and qualify as highly effective cash flow hedges under FAS 133 and remove the variability from the hedged cash flows.  An unrealized loss of $90.8 million and $11.9 million was recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income in our consolidated balance sheets, representing the change in fair value of the cash flow hedges for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.  An immaterial amount of hedge ineffectiveness has also been recorded in interest expense.

We also have additional interest rate swaps that we acquired from our predecessor at the time of our IPO.  Our predecessor had $2.21 billion notional of pay-fixed interest rate swaps at swap rates ranging between 4.09% and 5.00%.  Concurrent with the completion of our IPO, we executed receive-fixed swaps for the same notional amount at swap rates ranging between 4.96% and 5.00%, which were intended to largely offset the future cash flows and future change in fair value of our predecessor’s pay-fixed swaps.  The acquired pay-fixed swaps and the new receive-fixed swaps were not designated as hedges under FAS 133 and as such, the changes in fair value of these interest rate swaps have been recognized in earnings for all periods.  The fair value of these swaps decreased $1.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008.  Included in the net $1.9 million decrease is a $1.2 million increase related to the credit value adjustment resulting from our initial application of FAS 157 (see Note 2).  The fair value of these swaps decreased $3.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007.

9. Stockholders’ Equity and Minority Interests

Minority interests in our operating partnership relate to interests in our operating partnership that are not owned by us, which amounted to approximately 22% at March 31, 2008.  A unit in our operating partnership and a share of our common stock have essentially the same economic characteristics as they share equally in the total net income or loss distributions of our operating partnership.  Investors who own units in our operating partnership, have the right to cause our operating partnership to redeem any or all of their units in our operating partnership for cash equal to the then-current market value of one share of common stock, or, at our election, shares of our common stock on a one-for-one basis.

During the first quarter of 2008, we formed a joint venture to purchase an office building in Honolulu, Hawaii.  The joint venture is two-thirds owned by our operating partnership and is consolidated in our financial statements as of March 31, 2008.

Dividends
During 2008 and 2007, we declared quarterly dividends of $0.1875 and $0.175 per share, respectively, which equals an annual rate of $0.75 and $0.70 per share, respectively.

Equity Conversions and Repurchases
During the first three months of 2008, investors converted 11.4 million units to shares and we repurchased approximately 1.1 million share equivalents in private transactions for a total consideration of approximately $23.8 million.  We may make additional purchases of our share equivalents from time to time in private transactions or in the public markets, but do not have any commitments to do so.

Taxability of Dividends
Earnings and profits, which determine the taxability of distributions to stockholders, will differ from income reported for financial reporting purposes due to the differences for federal income tax purposes in the treatment of loss on extinguishment of debt, revenue recognition, compensation expense and in the basis of depreciable assets and estimated useful lives used to compute depreciation.

10. Stock-Based Compensation

On December 16, 2004, the FASB issued FAS No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment (FAS 123R), which is a revision of FAS 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.  Generally, the approach in FAS 123R is similar to the approach described in FAS 123.  However, FAS 123R requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values.

The Douglas Emmett, Inc. 2006 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan, our stock incentive plan, was adopted by our board of directors and approved by our stockholders prior to the consummation of our IPO. Our stock incentive plan is administered by the compensation committee of our board of directors.  All full-time and part-time officers, employees, directors and other key persons (including consultants and prospective employees) are eligible to participate in our stock incentive plan.  For more information on our stock incentive plan, please refer to the notes to the consolidated financial statements in our 2007 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

During the first quarter of 2008, we granted approximately 2.7 million long-term incentive units and stock options with a total fair market value of $9.9 million.  For the three months ended March 31, 2008, we recognized non-cash compensation expense of $1.2  million upon the vesting of such equity awards, compared to $0.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007.  An additional $2.2 million of equity awards vested during the three months ended March 31, 2008 to satisfy a portion of the bonus accrued during 2007.

11. Commitments and Contingencies

We are subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. These matters are generally covered by insurance. We believe that the ultimate outcome of these actions will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position and results of operations or cash flows.

Concentration of Credit Risk
Our properties are located in Los Angeles County, California and Honolulu, Hawaii. The ability of the tenants to honor the terms of their respective leases is dependent upon the economic, regulatory and social factors affecting the markets in which the tenants operate.  We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our tenants for potential credit losses.  Financial instruments that subject us to credit risk consist primarily of cash, accounts receivable, deferred rents receivable and interest rate contracts. We maintain our cash and cash equivalents with high quality financial institutions. Accounts at each institution are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $100, and to date, we have not experienced any losses on our deposited cash.

Asset Retirement Obligations
In March 2005, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 47, Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations—an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 143 (FIN 47).  FIN 47 clarifies that the term “conditional asset retirement obligation” as used in FAS No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations, represents a legal obligation to perform an asset retirement activity in which the timing and/or method of settlement is conditional on a future event that may or may not be within a company’s control.  Under this standard, a liability for a conditional asset retirement obligation must be recorded if the fair value of the obligation can be reasonably estimated. Environmental site assessments and investigations have identified 18 properties in our portfolio containing asbestos, which would have to be removed in compliance with applicable environmental regulations if these properties undergo major renovations or are demolished. As of March 31, 2008, the obligations to remove the asbestos from these properties have indeterminable settlement dates, and therefore, we are unable to reasonably estimate the fair value of the associated conditional asset retirement obligation.

Future Minimum Lease Payments
We lease portions of the land underlying three of our office properties as more fully described in the notes to consolidated financial statements contained in our 2007 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Tenant Concentrations
For the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, no tenant exceeded 10% of our total rental revenue and tenant reimbursements.


12. Segment Reporting

FAS No. 131, Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information, established standards for disclosure about operating segments and related disclosures about products and services, geographic areas and major customers. Segment information is prepared on the same basis that our management reviews information for operational decision-making purposes. We have operated in two business segments: (i) the acquisition, redevelopment, ownership and management of office real estate and (ii) the acquisition, redevelopment, ownership and management of multifamily real estate.  The products for our office segment include primarily rental of office space and other tenant services including parking and storage space rental. The products for our multifamily segment include rental of apartments and other tenant services including parking and storage space rental.

Asset information by segment is not reported because we do not use this measure to assess performance and make decisions to allocate resources. Therefore, depreciation and amortization expense is not allocated among segments.  Interest and other income, management services, general and administrative expenses, interest expense, depreciation and amortization expense and net derivative gains and losses are not included in rental revenues less rental expenses as the internal reporting addresses these items on a corporate level.

Douglas Emmett, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements--(continued)
(in thousands, except shares and per share data)

Rental revenues less rental expenses is not a measure of operating results or cash flows from operating activities as measured by GAAP, and it is not indicative of cash available to fund cash needs and should not be considered an alternative to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. Not all companies may calculate rental revenues less rental expenses in the same manner. We consider rental revenues less rental expenses to be an appropriate supplemental measure to net income because it assists both investors and management in understanding the core operations of our properties.

13. Subsequent Events

On May 1, 2008, the remaining $115 million of debt described in Note 7 was funded.

As described in Note 3, in February 2008, we acquired an office building in Honolulu, Hawaii.  Located in this building is a private membership athletic and social club known as The Honolulu Club.  We acquired the net assets of the club as part of the transaction to acquire the building.  Subsequent to the end of the first quarter, we entered into an agreement to sell the net assets of The Honolulu Club to a third party, while retaining a lease for the space they occupy in the office building that we now own.  The total sales price was not material.

This Report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act).  You can find many (but not all) of these statements by looking for words such as “approximates,” “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “intends,” “plans,” “would,” “may” or other similar expressions in this Report.  We claim the protection of the safe harbor contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  We caution investors that any forward-looking statements presented in this Report, or those that we may make orally or in writing from time to time, are based on the beliefs of, assumptions made by, and information currently available to us.  Such statements are based on assumptions and the actual outcome will be affected by known and unknown risks, trends, uncertainties and factors that are beyond our control or ability to predict.  Although we believe that our assumptions are reasonable, they are not guarantees of future performance and some will inevitably prove to be incorrect.  As a result, our actual future results can be expected to differ from our expectations, and those differences may be material.  Accordingly, investors should use caution in relying on past forward-looking statements, which are based on known results and trends at the time they are made, to anticipate future results or trends.

Some of the risks and uncertainties that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied by forward-looking statements include the following: adverse economic or real estate developments in Southern California and Honolulu; decreased rental rates or increased tenant incentive and vacancy rates; defaults on, early termination of, or non-renewal of leases by tenants; increased interest rates and operating costs; failure to generate sufficient cash flows to service our outstanding indebtedness; difficulties in identifying properties to acquire and completing acquisitions; failure to successfully operate acquired properties and operations; failure to maintain our status as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Internal Revenue Code); possible adverse changes in rent control laws and regulations; environmental uncertainties; risks related to natural disasters; lack or insufficient amount of insurance; inability to successfully expand into new markets and submarkets; risks associated with property development; conflicts of interest with our officers; changes in real estate, zoning laws and increases in real property tax rates; and the consequences of any future terrorist attacks. For further discussion of these and other factors, see “Item 1A.  Risk Factors” in our 2007 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

This Report and all subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us or any person acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained or referred to in this section.  We do not undertake any obligation to release publicly any revisions to our forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Report.


Critical Accounting Policies

Our discussion and analysis of our historical financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates of certain items and judgments as to certain future events, for example with respect to the allocation of the purchase price of acquired property among land, buildings, improvements, equipment, and any related intangible assets and liabilities, or the effect of a property tax reassessment of our properties in connection with our IPO.  These determinations, even though inherently subjective and prone to change, affect the reported amounts of our assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses.  While we believe that our estimates are based on reasonable assumptions and judgments at the time they are made, some of our assumptions, estimates and judgments will inevitably prove to be incorrect.  As a result, actual outcomes will likely differ from our accruals, and those differences—positive or negative—could be material.  Some of our accruals are subject to adjustment, as we believe appropriate based on revised estimates and reconciliation to the actual results when available.

In addition, we identified certain critical accounting policies that affect certain of our more significant estimates and assumptions used in preparing our consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007.  We have not made any material changes to these policies.

Historical Results of Operations

Overview

We are a fully integrated, self-administered and self-managed REIT and one of the largest owners and operators of high-quality office and multifamily properties in Los Angeles County, California and in Honolulu, Hawaii.  Our presence in Los Angeles and Honolulu is the result of a consistent and focused strategy of identifying submarkets that are supply constrained, have high barriers to entry and exhibit strong economic characteristics such as population and job growth and a diverse economic base.  In our office portfolio, we focus primarily on owning and acquiring a substantial share of top-tier office properties within submarkets located near high-end executive housing and key lifestyle amenities. In our multifamily portfolio, we focus primarily on owning and acquiring select properties at premier locations within these same submarkets.  Our properties are concentrated in nine premier Los Angeles County submarkets—Brentwood, Olympic Corridor, Century City, Santa Monica, Beverly Hills, Westwood, Sherman Oaks/Encino, Warner Center/Woodland Hills and Burbank—as well as in Honolulu, Hawaii.

Significant Transactions

Acquisitions.  During the first quarter of 2008, we completed the following transactions (see Note 3 to our consolidated financial statements included in this Report):

·  
In March 2008, we acquired a 1.4 million square foot office portfolio consisting of six Class “A” buildings located in its core Los Angeles submarkets – Santa Monica, Beverly Hills, Sherman Oaks/Encino and Warner Center/Woodland Hills – for a contract price of approximately $610 million.

·  
 
In February 2008, we acquired a 78,298 square-foot office building located in Honolulu, Hawaii.  As part of the same transaction, we also acquired all of the assets of The Honolulu Club, a private membership athletic and social club, which is located in the building.  The aggregate contract price was approximately $18 million and the purchase was made in a consolidated joint venture with our local partner.

Financings.  During the first quarter of 2008, we completed the following transactions (see Note 7 to our consolidated financial statements included in this Report):

·  
We obtained a non-recourse $340 million term loan secured by four of our previously unencumbered office properties.  At March 31, 2008, $225 million was outstanding, and the remaining $115 million was funded on May 1, 2008.

·  
We obtained a $380 million bridge loan from an affiliate of the seller in the March 2008 acquisitions described above.

·  
The joint venture, in which we have a two-thirds interest, obtained an $18 million loan that financed the February 2008 acquisition described above.

Comparison of three months ended March 31, 2008 to three months ended March 31, 2007

Revenue

Total Office Revenue.  Total office revenue consists of rental revenue, tenant recoveries and parking and other income.  Total office portfolio revenue increased by $6.1 million, or 5.5 %, to $117.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008 compared to $110.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007 for the reasons described below.

Rental Revenue.  Rental revenue includes rental revenues from our office properties, percentage rent on the retail space contained within office properties, and lease termination income.  Total office rental revenue increased by $7.4 million, or 8.1%, to $99.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008 compared to $91.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007.  Rent increased across our existing office portfolio due to increases in average rental rates for new and renewal leases signed since April 1, 2007.  The increase is also due to $2.8  million of incremental rent from the properties we acquired subsequent to April 1, 2007, including the seven additional properties we acquired in the first quarter of 2008, as described above.

Tenant Recoveries.  Total office tenant recoveries decreased by $2.8 million, or 34.4%, to $5.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008 compared to $8.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007.  This is primarily due to a reduction in the accrual of property tax expenses based on our judgment of the ongoing reassessment process of properties in connection with the IPO.  This was partially offset by incremental recoverable operating expenses from the properties we acquired subsequent to April 1, 2007, including the seven additional properties we acquired in the first quarter of 2008, as described above.

Parking and Other Income.  Total office parking and other income increased by $1.6 million, or 14.0%, to $12.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008 compared to $11.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007, primarily due to increases in parking rates implemented across the portfolio, increases in ground rent income, and incremental revenues from the properties we acquired subsequent to April 1, 2007, including the seven additional properties we acquired in the first quarter of 2008, as described above.

Total Multifamily Revenue.  Total multifamily revenue consists of rent, parking income and other income.  Total multifamily revenue increased by $0.8 million, or 4.6%, to $17.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008, compared to $17.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007.  The increase is primarily due to an increase in occupancy and an increase in rents charged to both new and existing tenants, including increases for select Santa Monica multifamily units.  These units were under leases signed prior to a 1999 change in California Law that allows landlords to reset rents to market rates when a tenant moves out.  Therefore, a portion of the multifamily increase was due to the rollover to market rents of several of these rent-controlled units, or “Pre-1999 Units”, since April 1, 2007.

Operating Expenses

Office Rental Expenses.  Total office rental expense decreased by $1.9 million, or 5.8%, to $31.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008, compared to $33.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007.  This is primarily due to a reduction in the accrual of property tax expenses based on our judgment of the ongoing reassessment process of properties in connection with our IPO. The decrease was partially offset by incremental operating expenses from the office properties we acquired subsequent to April 1, 2007, including the seven additional properties we acquired in the first quarter of 2008, as described above.

Multifamily Rental Expenses.  Total multifamily rental expense decreased by $1.0 million, or 21.2%, to $3.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008, compared to $4.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007.  This is primarily due to a reduction in the accrual of property tax expenses based on our judgment of the ongoing reassessment process of properties in connection with our IPO.

- 21 - -

 
Depreciation and Amortization.  Depreciation and amortization expense increased $5.6 million, or 11.0%, to $56.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008, compared to $51.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007.  The increase is primarily due to the finalization of the purchase price allocation and related lives of real estate assets combined at the time of our IPO and formation transactions, as well as incremental depreciation from the office properties we acquired subsequent to April 1, 2007, including the seven additional properties we acquired in the first quarter of 2008, as described above.

Non-Operating Income and Expenses

Interest Expense.  Interest expense increased $2.9 million, or 7.6%, to $41.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008, compared to $38.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007.  The increase was primarily due to incremental interest from the $150 million borrowed during the second quarter of 2007, the increase in borrowings outstanding under our corporate revolver, and the additional $623 million borrowed during the current quarter to fund the purchase of our new acquisition properties.  These increases were partially offset by the $1.2 million credit valuation adjustment resulting from the initial application of FAS 157.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Available Borrowings, Cash Balances and Capital Resources

We had total indebtedness of $3.7 billion at March 31, 2008, excluding a loan premium representing the mark-to-market adjustment on variable rate debt assumed from our predecessor.  Our debt increased $625 million from December 31, 2007 as a result of the $623 million of incremental borrowings and approximately $2 million in additional borrowings under our revolving credit facility.  Please see Note 7 to our consolidated financial statements included in this Report.

We have a revolving credit facility with a group of banks led by Bank of America, N.A. and Banc of America Securities LLC totaling $370 million.  At March 31, 2008, there was approximately $188 million available to us under this credit facility.  We have used our revolving credit facility for general corporate purposes, including funding acquisitions, redevelopment and repositioning opportunities, repurchases of our stock and operating partnership units, tenant improvements and capital expenditures, recapitalizations and providing working capital.

We have historically financed our capital needs through short-term lines of credit and long-term secured mortgages at floating rates.  To mitigate the impact of fluctuations in short-term interest rates on our cash flow from operations, we generally enter into interest rate swap or interest rate cap agreements.  At March 31, 2008, 78% of our debt was effectively fixed at an overall rate of 5.20% by virtue of interest rate swap and interest rate cap agreements in place at the end of the reporting period.  During the first quarter of 2008, we obtained a new $340 million loan facility, under which we borrowed $225 million on March 18, 2008.  The remaining $115 million will be funded on May 1, 2008.  We entered into corresponding interest rate hedges during the first quarter of 2008, which will fix the underlying interest rate of the total $340 million facility at 4.84%, and raise total fixed rate debt to 85% beginning May 1, 2008.  See Notes 7 and 8 to our consolidated financial statements included in this Report.

At March 31, 2008, our total borrowings under secured loans, excluding the portion of consolidated debt attributable to our minority partner on the Honolulu Club joint venture, represented 51.8% of our total market capitalization of $7.1 billion.  Total market capitalization includes our consolidated debt and the value of common stock and operating partnership units each based on our common stock closing price at March 31, 2008 on the New York Stock Exchange of $22.06 per share.

The nature of our business, and the requirements imposed by REIT rules that we distribute a substantial majority of our income on an annual basis, will cause us to have substantial liquidity needs over both the short term and the long term.
 
- 22 - -

 
We expect to meet our short-term liquidity requirements generally through cash provided by operations and, if necessary, by drawing upon our senior secured revolving credit facility.  During the first quarter of 2008, we successfully secured $340 million of debt, of which $225 million was outstanding at March 31, 2008 and the remaining $115 million was funded on May 1, 2008.  However, recent economic events have led to tighter and more uncertain credit markets.  As a result, although we have been successful in financings during the current quarter, disruptions in the credit markets could impact the availability of credit in the future or could impact the rates of any borrowings we do obtain.  Currently, we have approximately $562 million of principal payments maturing by the end of 2009, consisting of the $380 million bridge financing borrowed in connection with our March 2008 acquisitions and $182 million under our revolving credit facility.  We anticipate repaying the bridge loan from refinancing proceeds, available cash and borrowings under our credit facility prior to maturity.  Our credit facility contains two renewal options of one year each available to us.  We anticipate that cash provided by operations and borrowings under our senior secured revolving credit facility will be sufficient to meet our liquidity requirements for at least the next 12 months.

Our long-term liquidity needs consist primarily of funds necessary to pay for acquisitions, redevelopment and repositioning of properties, non-recurring capital expenditures, and repayment of indebtedness at maturity.  We do not expect that we will have sufficient funds on hand to cover all of these long-term cash requirements.  We will seek to satisfy these needs through cash flow from operations, long-term secured and unsecured indebtedness, the issuance of debt and equity securities, including units in our operating partnership, property dispositions and joint venture transactions.  We have historically financed our operations, acquisitions and development, through the use of our revolving credit facility or other short-term acquisition lines of credit, which we subsequently repay with long-term secured floating rate mortgage debt.  To mitigate the impact of fluctuations in short-term interest rates on our cash flow from operations, we generally enter into interest rate swap or interest rate cap agreements at the time we enter into term borrowings.

We are also exploring raising capital for acquisitions through an institutional fund, controlled by an entity affiliated with us, which would receive certain fees as well as a carried interest in any distributions after the participating institutional investors receive a return of their invested capital and a preferred return.  If we close such a fund, it is likely that it would be our exclusive vehicle for most (and perhaps all) cash acquisitions during the investment period of the fund.  The exact terms of any such fund would be based on negotiations and market conditions.  Any securities offered in such a fund will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and could not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration under that act or an applicable exemption from those registration requirements.  Nothing in the foregoing disclosure constitutes an offer to sell any securities in such a fund, nor a solicitation of an offer to purchase any such securities.

Contractual Obligations

During the first quarter of 2008, there were no material changes outside the ordinary course of business in the information regarding specified contractual obligations contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

At March 31, 2008, we did not have any off balance sheet financing arrangements.

Cash Flows


Net cash used in investing activities increased $613.6 million to $627.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008 compared to $13.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007.  The increase was primarily due to a higher level of spending on property acquisitions in the 2008 period compared to the 2007 period.  See Note 3 to our consolidated financial statements included in this Report.
 
- 23 - -

 
Cash flow related to financing activities increased from an outflow of $29.8 million in the first three months of 2007 to an inflow of $571.7 million in the first three months of 2008.   The net cash inflow represents borrowings in excess of equity repurchases and payments of dividends and distributions.
 
Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

During the first three months of 2008, there were no material changes in the information regarding market risk contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007.


 
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act)  that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act is processed, recorded, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and regulations and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
 
 
As of March 31, 2008, the end of the period covered by this Report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, regarding the effectiveness in design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures at the end of the period covered by this Report.  Based on the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded, as of that time, that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management including our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
 
 
There have been no significant changes that occurred during the quarter covered by this Report in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation referenced above that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION

We are not aware of any material changes to the risk factors included in Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in our 2007 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

LOAN SALES AND PARTICIPATION; DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION.  Borrower agrees that Lender may elect, at any time, to sell, assign or grant participation in all or any portion of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents, and that any such sale, assignment or participation may be to one or more financial institutions, private investors, and/or other entities, at Lender’s sole discretion (“Participant”).  Borrower further agrees that Lender may disseminate to any such actual or potential purchaser(s), assignee(s) or participant(s) all documents and information (including, without limitation, all financial information) which has been or is hereafter provided to or known to Lender with respect to:  (a) the Property and its operation; (b) any party connected with the Loan (including, without limitation, the Borrower, any partner, joint venturer or member of Borrower, any constituent partner, joint venturer or member of Borrower, any Guarantor and any Indemnitor); and/or (c) any lending relationship other than the Loan which Lender may have with any party connected with the Loan.  In the event of any such sale, assignment or participation, Lender and the parties to such transaction shall share in the rights and obligations of Lender as set forth in the Loan Documents only as and to the extent they agree among themselves, but no owner of a participation interest shall have any direct rights of enforcement against Borrower or any Guarantor or Indemnitor under this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents.  In connection with any such sale or assignment, Borrower further agrees that the Loan Documents shall be sufficient evidence of the obligations of Borrower to each purchaser or assignee and upon written request by Lender, Borrower shall enter into such amendments or modifications to the Loan Documents as may be reasonably required in order to evidence any such sale or assignment.  The indemnity obligations of Borrower under the Loan Documents shall also apply with respect to any purchaser or assignee.
 
Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, and without the need to comply with any of the formal or procedural requirements of this Agreement, including this Section, any lender may at any time and from time to time pledge and assign all or any portion of its rights under all or any of the Loan Documents to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from its obligations thereunder.
 
10.14  
CAPITAL ADEQUACY.  If Lender or any Participant in the Loan, or either of them, determines that compliance with any future law or regulation or with any future guideline or request from any central bank or other governmental agency (whether or not having the force of law) affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by Lender or such Participant, or any corporation controlling Lender or such Participant, as a consequence of, or with reference to, Lender’s or such Participant’s or such corporation’s commitments or its making or maintaining advances below the rate which Lender or such Participant or such corporation controlling Lender could have achieved but for such compliance (taking into account the policies of Lender or such Participant or corporation with regard to capital), then Borrower shall, from time to time, within thirty (30) calendar days after written demand by Lender or such Participant, pay to Lender or such Participant additional amounts sufficient to compensate Lender or such Participant or such corporation controlling Lender to the extent that Lender determines such increase in capital is allocable to Lender’s obligations hereunder.  A certificate as to such amounts, submitted to Borrower by Lender or such Participant, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error provided that any discretion exercise by Lender or such Participant in making any such determination was exercised in a reasonable manner.
 
10.15  
LENDER’S AGENTS.  Lender may designate an agent or independent contractor to exercise any of Lender’s rights under this Agreement and any of the other Loan Documents.
 
10.16  
TAX SERVICE.  Lender is authorized to secure, at Borrower’s expense, a tax service contract with a third party vendor which shall provide tax information on the Property satisfactory to Lender.
 
10.17  
BORROWER’S WAIVER.  Borrower hereby waives all of its rights under California Civil Code Section 2822, which provides as follows:  “(a) The acceptance, by a creditor, of anything in partial satisfaction of an obligation, reduces the obligation of a surety thereof, in the same measure as that of the principal, but does not otherwise affect it.  However, if the surety is liable upon only a portion of an obligation and the principal provides partial satisfaction of the obligation, the principal may designate the portion of the obligation that is to be satisfied; and (b) For purposes of this section and Section 2819, an agreement by a creditor to accept from the principal debtor a sum less than the balance owed on the original obligation, without the prior consent of the surety and without any other change to the underlying agreement between the creditor and principal debtor, shall not exonerate the surety for the lesser sum agreed upon by the creditor and principal debtor.”
 
10.18  
SEVERABILITY.  If any provision or obligation under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that provision shall be deemed severed from the Loan Documents and the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations shall remain in full force as though the invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provision had never been a part of the Loan Documents, provided, however, that if the rate of interest or any other amount payable under the Note or this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the right of collectibility therefore, are declared to be or become invalid, illegal or unenforceable, Lender’s obligations to make advances under the Loan Documents shall not be enforceable by Borrower.
 
10.19  
HEIRS, SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS.  Except as otherwise expressly provided under the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the terms of the Loan Documents shall bind and inure to the benefit of the heirs, successors and assigns of the parties.
 
10.20  
TIME.  Time is of the essence of each and every term of this Agreement.
 
10.21  
HEADINGS.  All article, section or other headings appearing in this Agreement and any of the other Loan Documents are for convenience of reference only and shall be disregarded in construing this Agreement and any of the other Loan Documents.
 
10.22  
GOVERNING LAW.  This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of California, except to the extent preempted by federal laws.  Borrower and all persons and entities in any manner obligated to Lender under the Loan Documents consent to the jurisdiction of any federal or state court within the State of California having proper venue and also consent to service of process by any means authorized by California or federal law.
 
10.23  
USA PATRIOT ACT NOTICE. COMPLIANCE. The USA Patriot Act of 2001 (Public Law 107-56) and federal regulations issued with respect thereto require all financial institutions to obtain, verify and record certain information that identifies individuals or business entities which open an “account” with such financial institution.  Consequently, Lender (for itself and/or as Agent for all Lenders hereunder) may from time-to-time request, and Borrower shall provide to Lender, Borrower’s name, address, tax identification number and/or such other identification information as shall be necessary for Lender to comply with federal law.  An “account” for this purpose may include, without limitation, a deposit account, cash management service, a transaction or asset account, a credit account, a loan or other extension of credit, and/or other financial services product.
 
10.24  
INTEGRATION; INTERPRETATION.  The Loan Documents contain or expressly incorporate by reference the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the matters contemplated therein and supersede all prior negotiations or agreements, written or oral.  The Loan Documents shall not be modified except by written instrument executed by all parties.  Any reference to the Loan Documents includes any amendments, renewals or extensions now or hereafter approved by Lender in writing.
 
10.25  
JOINT AND SEVERAL LIABILITY.  If more than one person or entity has executed this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents as “Borrower” or “Mortgagor,” then the obligations of all such persons hereunder or thereunder shall be joint and several.
 
10.26  
COUNTERPARTS.  To facilitate execution, this document may be executed in as many counterparts as may be convenient or required. It shall not be necessary that the signature of, or on behalf of, each party, or that the signature of all persons required to bind any party, appear on each counterpart.  All counterparts shall collectively constitute a single document.  It shall not be necessary in making proof of this document to produce or account for more than a single counterpart containing the respective signatures of, or on behalf of, each of the parties hereto. Any signature page to any counterpart may be detached from such counterpart without impairing the legal effect of the signatures thereon and thereafter attached to another counterpart identical thereto except having attached to it additional signature pages.

2.02   Funding of Loans.  On the Closing Date, each Lender shall make available from its Applicable Lending Office the amount of the Loan to be made by it on such date to the Administrative Agent as specified by the Administrative Agent, in immediately available funds, for account of the Borrower.  The amount so received by the Administrative Agent shall, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, be made available to the Borrower in immediately available funds, for the uses and purposes identified on a sources and uses statement approved by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower.  
 
2.03   Several Obligations.  The failure of any Lender to make any Loan to be made by it on the date specified therefor shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation to make its Loan on such date, but neither any Lender nor the Administrative Agent shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make a Loan to be made by such other Lender.  The amounts payable by the Borrower at any time hereunder and under the Note to each Lender shall be a separate and independent debt.  It is understood and agreed that the Closing hereunder shall not occur unless each of the Lenders shall have funded the amount of the Loan to be made by it.  
 
2.04   Notes.
 
(a)   Notes.  The Loan made by each Lender shall be evidenced by its Note.
 
(b)   Substitution, Exchange and Subdivision of Notes.  No Lender shall be entitled to have its Note substituted or exchanged for any reason, or subdivided for promissory notes of lesser denominations, except (i) in connection with a permitted assignment of all or any portion of such Lender’s Commitment, Loan and Note pursuant, and subject to the terms and conditions of, Section 14.07(b) (and, if requested by any Lender in connection with such permitted assignment, the Borrower agrees to so exchange any such Note provided the original Note subject to such exchange has been delivered to the Borrower) or (ii) as provided in Section 14.30 with respect to severance of Notes if elected by Eurohypo, provided the original Note severed, split, divided or otherwise replaced pursuant to Section 14.30 has been delivered to the Borrower.

2.05   Conversions or Continuations of Loans.  
 
(a)   Subject to Section 4.04, the Borrower shall have the right to Convert Loans of one Type into Loans of another Type or Continue Loans of one Type as Loans of the same Type, at any time or from time to time; provided that:  (i) the Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent notice of each such Conversion or Continuation as provided in Section 4.05; (ii) Eurodollar Loans may be Converted only on the last day of an Interest Period for such Loans unless the Borrower complies with the terms of Section 5.05 and (iii) subject to Sections 5.01(a) and 5.03, any Conversion or Continuation of Loans shall be pro rata among the Lenders.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, and without limiting the rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under Article XII, in the event that any Event of Default exists, the Administrative Agent may (and at the request of the Required Lenders shall) suspend the right of the Borrower to Convert any Loan into a Eurodollar Loan, or to Continue any Loan as a Eurodollar Loan for so long as such Event of Default exists, in which event all Loans shall be Converted (on the last day(s) of the respective Interest Periods therefor) into, or Continued as, as the case may be, Base Rate Loans.  In connection with any such Conversion, a Lender may (at its sole discretion) transfer a Loan from one Applicable Lending Office to another.
 
(b)   Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, at any time that a Hedge Agreement is in effect, the Borrower shall have the right to choose only an Interest Period which is the same as the Interest Rate Hedge Period, provided that the foregoing shall only apply to a Hedge Agreement that is required by Section 8.19(a) of this Agreement.

(a)   Prepayment of the Loans.  Upon not less than ten (10) days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, the Borrower may prepay the Loans, in whole or in part, in minimum increments of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) except as otherwise provided by Section 2.06(c), subject to the following:
 
(i)           any such prepayment shall be accompanied by the amount of interest theretofore accrued but unpaid in respect of the principal amount so prepaid, in accordance with Section 2.08;
 
(ii)           except as provided below, any such prepayment (except as a result of a Casualty Event or Taking or any prepayment made pursuant to Section 10.03(j) or Section 14.25)) shall be accompanied by a prepayment premium equal to the following percentage of the principal amount so prepaid:
 
If the prepayment occurs during the following period:
 
The percentage is as follows:
During the period from the Closing Date to and including the date which occurs six (6) months after the Closing Date
1.00%
During the period from the day immediately following the date which occurs six (6) months after the Closing Date to and including the date which occurs twelve (12) months after the Closing Date
0.50%

and
 
(iii)           such prepayment shall be accompanied by any amounts payable to a Lender pursuant to Section 5.05 as a result of such prepayment while a Eurodollar Loan is in effect, in accordance with Section 2.08.
 
If the Loans are paid or prepaid in whole or in part for any reason (including acceleration of the Loans or because the Loans automatically become due and payable in accordance with Section 12.02(a)), other than by a Casualty Event or Taking or any prepayment made pursuant to Section 10.03(j) or Section 14.25) at any time, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Lenders) the amount(s) described in clauses (i), (ii), as applicable, and (iii), of the immediately preceding sentence.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, during the period from the Closing Date to and including the date which occurs twelve (12) months after the Closing Date, no prepayment premium pursuant to clause (ii) of Section 2.06(a) shall be payable in connection with any prepayment of principal made other than pursuant to Section 2.09(a), if such prepayment, when aggregated with all past prepayments made other than pursuant to Section 2.09(a), would not exceed an amount which is equal to twenty-five percent (25%) of the aggregate sum of all principal amounts of the Loans advanced on or after the Closing Date.
 
(b)   Treatment of Prepayments.  Except for any mandatory prepayment made pursuant to Section 2.07 and any prepayment made under Sections 2.06(c) and 2.09, and notwithstanding when such prepayment is made, each partial prepayment of the Loans shall be deemed to reduce the Allocated Loan Amounts pro-rata in accordance with the Allocated Loan Amount for each Project.
 
(c)   Prepayment Upon Release of Projects.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.06, any prepayment made in connection with the release in accordance with the terms contained in Section 2.09 of any one or more of the Projects may be made at any time upon not less than ten (10) days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, and without reference to the minimum One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) increment requirements of Section 2.06(a), but subject to payment of any applicable prepayment premium under clause (ii) of Section 2.06(a) and compliance with the provisions set forth in clause (iii) of Section 2.06(a) above, and the applicable provisions set forth in Section 2.09.
 
(d)   Acknowledgments Regarding Prepayment Premium.  The prepayment premiums required by this Section 2.06 are acknowledged by the Borrower to be partial compensation to the Lenders for the costs of reinvesting the proceeds of the Loans and for the loss of the contracted rate of return on the Loans and shall be due in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.06 upon any prepayment of the Loans, including any prepayment occurring after an acceleration resulting from a violation of the provisions restricting Transfers set forth in this Agreement.  Furthermore, the Borrower acknowledges that the loss that may be sustained by the Lenders as a result of such a prepayment by the Borrower is not susceptible of precise calculation, and the prepayment premium represents the good faith effort of the Borrower and the Lenders to compensate the Lenders for such loss and the parties’ reasonable estimate of such loss, and is not a penalty.  By initialing this provision where indicated below, the Borrower waives any rights it may have under California Civil Code Section 2954.10, or any successor statute, and the Borrower confirms that the Lenders’ agreement to make the Loans at the interest rate and on the other terms set forth herein constitutes adequate and valuable consideration, given individual weight by the Borrower, for the prepayment provisions set forth in this Section 2.06.

2.08   Interest and Other Charges on Prepayment.  If the Loans are prepaid, in whole or in part, pursuant to Section 2.06 or 2.07, each such prepayment shall be made together with (a) the accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount prepaid, and (b) any amounts payable to a Lender pursuant to Section 5.05 as a result of such prepayment while an Adjusted LIBO Rate is in effect (provided the Borrower is notified of such amount or an estimate thereof), including, without limitation, any such amounts that may result from a prepayment other than on the last day of an Interest Period for a Eurodollar Loan the Interest Period of which has been automatically Continued pursuant to Section 4.05 during any period on which a prepayment date has been postponed in accordance with the provisions set forth below in this Section 2.08; provided, however, that any such prepayment shall be applied first, to the prepayment of any portions of the Outstanding Principal Amount that are Base Rate Loans and, second, to the prepayment of any portions of the Outstanding Principal Amount that are Eurodollar Loans applying such sums first to Eurodollar Loans of the shortest maturity so as to minimize Rollover Breakage Costs (as defined below); provided further, however, that if an Event of Default exists, the Administrative Agent may distribute such payment to the Lenders for application in such manner as it or the Required Lenders, subject to Section 4.02, may determine to be appropriate.  Each prepayment pursuant to Section 2.06 shall be made on the prepayment date specified in the notice of prepayment delivered pursuant to Section 4.05, unless such notice is revoked (or the date of prepayment is postponed) by a further written notice (which may be delivered by the Borrower by facsimile to the Administrative Agent).  Any notice revoking a notice of prepayment (or postponing a previously-specified prepayment date) shall be delivered not less than one (1) Business Day prior to the date of prepayment specified in the notice of prepayment; provided, however, in the event that the Borrower revokes or postpones such notice during the last three (3) Business Days of any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Loan, and provided that the Borrower has not elected to Convert such Eurodollar Loan into a Base Rate Loan pursuant to Section 2.05, the Borrower acknowledges that losses, costs and expenses for which the Borrower is responsible pursuant to Section 5.05(b) shall include, without limitation, losses, costs and expenses that may subsequently result from the early repayment, termination, cancellation or failure of the Borrower to borrow any Eurodollar Loan that was to have been automatically continued pursuant to Section 4.05 (“Rollover Breakage Costs”).  
 
2.09   Release of Projects.  Except as set forth in this Section 2.09, or unless the Obligations have been paid in full, the Borrower shall have no right to obtain the release of any Project from the Lien of the Loan Documents, and no repayment or prepayment of any portion of the Loans shall cause, give rise to a right to require, or otherwise result in, the release of the Lien of the Deed of Trust on any Project or any other collateral securing the Loans.  Any release upon payment of the Obligations in full shall be in accordance with the provisions of the Deeds of Trust governing releases.
 
(a)   Release of Projects.  At any time following the Closing Date a Borrower on one or more occasions may obtain, and the Administrative Agent shall take such actions as are necessary to effectuate pursuant to this Section 2.09(a), the release of the entirety of any Project owned by it from the Lien of the applicable Deed of Trust (and related Loan Documents) thereon and the release of the Borrower’s obligations under the Loan Documents with respect to such Project (other than those which expressly survive repayment, including, but not limited to, those set forth in the Environmental Indemnity), upon satisfaction of each of the following conditions:
 
(i) The Borrower shall submit to the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Lenders), by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, at least ten (10) days prior to the date of the proposed release, written notice of its election to obtain such release (which notice shall include a certification by an Authorized Officer of the Borrower that the proposed release complies with all of the conditions set forth in this Section 2.09(a)), together with the form or forms for a release of Lien and related Loan Documents (or, in the case of a Deed of Trust, a request for reconveyance) for such Project for execution by the Administrative Agent, which the Administrative Agent shall execute and deliver to the Borrower for recordation upon satisfaction of all conditions set forth in this Section 2.09(a).  Such release shall be in a form appropriate in each jurisdiction in which the applicable Project is located and reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and its counsel.  Any notice of a proposed release of a Project pursuant to this Section 2.09(a) may be revoked (or the date proposed for such release may be postponed) by a further written notice (which may be delivered by the Borrower by facsimile to the Administrative Agent).  Any notice revoking a proposed release (or postponing the date for a proposed release) shall be delivered not less than one (1) Business Day prior to the date of such release specified in the notice of release; provided, however, in the event that the Borrower revokes or postpones such notice during the last three (3) Business Days of the Interest Period for any Eurodollar Loan, and provided that the Borrower has not elected to Convert such Eurodollar Loan into a Base Rate Loan pursuant to Section 2.05, the Borrower acknowledges that the losses, costs and expenses for which the Borrower shall be responsible under Section 5.05(b) shall include applicable Rollover Breakage Costs, if any;
 
(ii) The Borrower shall remit to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Allocated Loan Amount (as such Allocated Loan Amount may be adjusted pursuant to Section 2.11(i) hereof) for the applicable Project (for application to the principal balance of the Loans), plus any applicable prepayment premium payable in connection with such prepayment pursuant to clause (ii) of Section 2.06(a).  The minimum One Million Dollar ($1,000,000) increment requirements of Section 2.06(a) shall not apply to a prepayment of the Loans made in accordance with this Section 2.09(a);
 
(iii) The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent all sums, including, but not limited to, interest payments and principal payments, if any, that are then due and payable under the Notes, this Agreement, the applicable Deed of Trust and the other Loan Documents, and all costs due pursuant to Section 5.05 and clause (viii) of this Section 2.09(a) (it being agreed that accrued interest on the principal amount to be paid pursuant to clause (ii) of this Section 2.09(a) shall not be due and payable in connection with such release (unless such accrued interest is otherwise due and payable), but shall be due and payable on the next Payment Date);
 
(iv) The release of such Project is being made upon the sale of the Project to a purchaser not affiliated with the Borrower pursuant to an arm’s length sale transaction;
 
(v) Immediately prior to such release, the Debt Service Coverage Ratio as calculated for all of the Projects then securing the Loans other than the Project proposed to be released (and assuming for purposes of the calculation of the DSCR Debt Service that the principal of the Loans shall have been reduced by the principal amount payable with respect to the Project to be released in accordance with clause (ii) of this Section 2.09(a) but taking into account any Unused Commitments, if any (including any reductions of Subsequent Funding Commitments pursuant to Section 2.11) unless they have expired) shall be equal to or greater than 1.35-to-1.00;
 
(vi) After giving effect to such release and the payment of principal required to be made in connection therewith, the Outstanding Principal Amount of the Loans plus any remaining Unused Commitments (unless the Loans shall be repaid in full) shall not be less than $175,000,000.
 
(vii) No Default or Event of Default exists at the time of the Borrower’s request or on the date of the proposed release or after giving effect thereto (other than a Default or Event of Default that would be cured by effectuating such release); and
 
(viii) The Borrower shall pay all costs and expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable legal fees and disbursements, escrow and trustee fees, costs for title insurance endorsements required by the Administrative Agent to confirm the continued priority of the Liens in favor of the Lenders on the Projects not being released and other out-of-pocket costs and expenses) incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with such release.
 
It is understood and agreed that no such release shall impair or otherwise adversely affect the Liens, security interests and other rights of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders under the Loan Documents not being released (or as to the parties to the Loan Documents and Projects subject to the Loan Documents not being released).
 
(b)   Any Project released from the Lien of a Deed of Trust and the other Loan Documents pursuant to this Section 2.09 shall, effective upon such release, no longer be considered a “Project” for purposes of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, except for purposes of those indemnification obligations and other covenants which, by their terms, expressly survive any such release.
 
2.10   Call Date.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, (i) the Outstanding Principal Amount under all Notes shall become automatically due and payable on the fifth (5th) anniversary of the expiration of the Stub Interest Period (the “First Call Date”) if (a) Borrower shall not have delivered written notice (the “First Call Notice”) to the Administrative Agent not more than one hundred eighty (180) days and not less than ninety (90) days prior to the First Call Date of its intent to extend the Loans until the sixth (6th) anniversary of the expiration of the Stub Interest Period, (b) on or prior to the First Call Date the Borrower has not paid to the Administrative Agent in accordance with the Fee Letter for the benefit of the Lenders an extension fee equal to ten (10) basis points (0.10%) times the Outstanding Principal Amount under all Notes as of the First Call Date, (c) on the First Call Date a Default or an Event of Default exists, (d) so long as Administrative Agent shall have provided written notice requiring extension of the existing Hedge Agreement to Borrower within thirty (30) days after receipt of the First Call Notice and prior to the First Call Date, on or prior to the First Call Date, the Borrower has not extended any existing Hedge Agreement required by Section 8.19(a), or entered into a new or replacement Hedge Agreement which has an All-in-Rate that is sufficient to satisfy a Debt Service Coverage Ratio for all the Projects then securing the Loans of at least 1.25:1.00, and which otherwise satisfies the terms of Section 8.19(a) with an expiration date of not earlier than six (6) months prior to the sixth (6th) anniversary of the expiration of the Stub Interest Period, (e) the Borrower shall not have demonstrated, to the reasonable satisfaction of the Administrative Agent, as of the First Call Date, that the Debt Service Coverage Ratio for all the Projects then securing the Loans equals or exceeds 1.25:1.00, or (f) the Loan-to-Value Ratio for each of the Projects then securing the Loans does not exceed sixty percent (60%) based on a new or updated Appraisal obtained by the Administrative Agent for each such Project not more than forty-five (45) days prior to the First Call Date, such Appraisal to be at Borrower’s expense and satisfactory to the Administrative Agent in all respects; provided, however, in the event that the required Loan-to-Value Ratio is not met, then Borrower may, in order to satisfy the condition in this clause, pay down the Outstanding Principal Balance of the Loans in an amount such that the required Loan-to-Value Ratio is achieved (subject to the provisions of Section 5.05, as supplemented by the provisions of Section 2.06(b)); and (ii) the Outstanding Principal Amount under all Notes shall become automatically due and payable on the sixth (6th) anniversary of the expiration of the Stub Interest Period (the “Second Call Date”) if (a) Borrower shall not have delivered written notice (the “Second Call Notice”) to the Administrative Agent not more than one hundred twenty (120) days and not less than forty-five (45) days prior to the Second Call Date of its intent to extend the Loans until the seventh (7th) anniversary of the expiration of the Stub Interest Period, (b) on or prior to the Second Call Date the Borrower has not paid to the Administrative Agent in accordance with the Fee Letter for the benefit of the Lenders an extension fee equal to ten (10) basis points (0.10%) times the Outstanding Principal Amount under all Notes as of the Second Call Date, (c) on the Second Call Date a Default or an Event of Default exists, (d) so long as Administrative Agent shall have provided written notice requiring extension of the existing Hedge Agreement to Borrower within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Second Call Notice and prior to the Second Call Date, on or prior to the Second Call Date, the Borrower has not extended any existing Hedge Agreement required by Section 8.19(a), or entered into a new or replacement Hedge Agreement which has an All-in-Rate that is sufficient to satisfy a Debt Service Coverage Ratio for all the Projects then securing the Loans of at least 1.25:1.00, and which otherwise satisfies the terms of Section 8.19(a) with an expiration date of not earlier than six (6) months prior to the seventh (7th) anniversary of the expiration of the Stub Interest Period, or (e) the Borrower shall not have demonstrated, to the reasonable satisfaction of the Administrative Agent, as of the Second Call Date, that the Debt Service Coverage Ratio for all the Projects then securing the Loans equals or exceeds 1.25:1.00.
 
2.11   Increase in Commitments; Subsequent Funding Advance.
 
(a)   The total Commitments may be increased by an amount not to exceed $115,000,000 subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 2.11(a).  At any time prior to May 1, 2008, any Person that is an Eligible Assignee may become a Lender (any such Person, a “New Lender”) upon the execution and delivery of a joinder (a “Joinder”) substantially in the form of Exhibit R attached hereto, which, among other things, specifies the amount of such New Lender’s Commitment (“New Commitment Amount”), and acceptance thereof by the Administrative Agent.  Borrower hereby consents to any Joinder executed by a Person that is an Eligible Assignee.  Upon receipt of a Joinder, the Administrative Agent shall provide written notice to all Lenders of the New Commitment Amount and the increase in Commitments.  Upon the effective date of any increase in the Commitments (the “Increase Date”), which Increase Date shall be mutually agreed upon by the Borrower, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (to, among other things, avoid or minimize breakage costs), each New Lender shall advance to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such New Lender’s Proportionate Share (as determined by taking into account such New Commitment Amounts) of the Outstanding Principal Amount, which amount shall be paid by the Administrative Agent to the existing Lenders, such that, following such payment on such Increase Date by each New Lender, each Lender (including the New Lenders) holds its Proportionate Share (as determined following the increase in the Commitments by the New Commitment Amounts) of the Outstanding Principal Amount.  Upon the payment by the New Lenders and receipt by the other Lenders of the sums provided for herein, each new Lender shall be deemed to have purchased and acquired portions of the Loans (but not the Commitments) of each existing Lender from payments made by such New Lender.  Notwithstanding the receipt of such payments by the existing Lenders by reason of the foregoing sentence, none of the Commitments of any Lender shall be reduced, and the Borrower may continue to borrower from each Lender up to the amount of its original Commitment, on and subject to the terms and provisions of this Agreement.  In the event that the receipt of such payment on the Increase Date causes any Lender to incur any loss, cost or expense referred to in Section 5.05(a), the Borrower shall pay the same in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.05(a).  The Borrower shall, in connection with each increase of the Commitments and the execution and delivery of each Joinder, (i) issue a new Note to each New Lender evidencing its share of the Loans and its New Commitment Amount as set forth in the applicable Joinder, (ii) deliver opinion letters of Borrower’s counsel with respect to all Loan Documents delivered in connection with the increase in the Commitments, in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and in substantially the same form as the opinion letters delivered in connection with the initial advance hereunder, and (iii) pay all of the Administrative Agent’s reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in connection with this Section 2.11.
 
(b)   In the event the Commitments are increased pursuant to the terms of Section 2.11(a) above, Schedule 1.01(4) shall be revised and replaced with an Amended and Restated Schedule 1.01(4) (Commitments and Proportionate Shares) (the “Amended and Restated Schedule 1.01(4)”) which shall be circulated to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, which shall reflect the then total Commitments of each Lender and the remaining unused amount of each Lender’s Commitment (which amount shall be referred to herein as the “Subsequent Funding Commitment”) available to fund any subsequent advance of the Loan in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.11.  At such time as the Commitments are increased, all references in the Loan Documents to “Commitments” and all references in the Loan Documents to “Proportionate Share” shall, at such time, thereafter refer to the Amended and Restated Schedule 1.01(4).  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Lenders) to enter into amendments and modifications of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to the extent necessary to reflect the adjustment of the Commitments and the Loans, the addition of New Lenders and the other matters contemplated by this Section 2.11.
 
(c)   In the event the Commitments are increased pursuant to the terms of Section 2.11(a) above, each Lender severally agrees, on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth in this Section 2.11, to make not more than one (1) subsequent advance of the Loan to Borrower (the “Subsequent Funding Advance”), in an amount not to exceed the Subsequent Funding Commitment of such Lender.  The “Subsequent Funding Commitment Percentage” means, as to any Lender at any time, the percentage equivalent of such Lender’s Subsequent Funding Commitment divided by the Subsequent Funding Commitments of all Lenders at such time.  The Subsequent Funding Commitments of the Lenders having Subsequent Funding Commitments shall expire, and be of no further force and effect, if not drawn on or before May 1, 2008 (the “Expiration Date”).  Thereafter, the obligation of any Lender to make the Subsequent Funding Advance shall terminate, and each Lender’s Commitment shall equal the sum of the then-Outstanding Principal Amount of the Loans funded by such Lender.
 
(d)   Once repaid or prepaid, the Borrower may not reborrow the Subsequent Funding Advance.  
 
(e)   Subsequent Funding Advance Notice.  The Subsequent Funding Advance shall be made upon the irrevocable written notice (which may include notice via facsimile confirmed immediately by a telephone call) of the Borrower in the form of Exhibit P attached hereto (the “Subsequent Funding Advance Notice”) as more fully provided below:
 
(i) Rate and Terms.  The Subsequent Funding Advance shall be a Loan, and shall bear interest and otherwise be subject to the terms and conditions that apply to all other Loans of the same Type.
 
(ii) Timing of Notice.  The Subsequent Funding Advance Notice shall be submitted to and received by the Administrative Agent prior to 9:00 a.m. (New York time) (A) at least three (3) Business Days prior to the specified borrowing date, in the case of Eurodollar Loans; and (B) at least two (2) Business Days prior to the specified borrowing date, in the case of Base Rate Loans.
 
(iii) Contents of Notice.  The Subsequent Funding Advance Notice shall set forth the following information with respect to the Loan subject thereto:

3)  
whether the Loan is to be made as a Eurodollar Loan or a Base Rate Loan (or both) and in what respective amounts; and
 
4)  
if the Loan is to be made as a Eurodollar Loan, the applicable Interest Period(s).  If the Subsequent Funding Advance Notice shall fail to specify the Type of Loan or shall fail to specify the applicable Interest Period for any Eurodollar Loan requested, such Loan will be made as a Eurodollar Loan with a one month Interest Period.
 
(f)   Funding of Commitment.  Each Lender shall make an amount equal to its Subsequent Funding Commitment Percentage of the aggregate amount of the Loans requested in the Subsequent Funding Advance Notice available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Borrower by 12:00 p.m. (New York time) on the borrowing date specified therein in Dollars immediately available to the Administrative Agent.  Unless, in the case of the Subsequent Funding Advance, any applicable condition specified in this Section 2.11 has not been satisfied, such funds shall then be made available to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent by wire transferring to such account as shall have been designated to it by the Borrower the aggregate of the amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by the Lenders (in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent).  All amounts to be funded pursuant to this Section shall be funded in Dollars.
 
(g)   Notice to Lenders.  Upon receipt of the Subsequent Funding Advance Notice conforming with the terms of this Section 2.11, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s Subsequent Funding Commitment Percentage (as applicable) of the Loans described therein.
 
(h)   Reserved.  
 
(i)   Effect of Subsequent Funding Commitments on Allocated Loan Amounts.  Upon the making of the Subsequent Funding Advance pursuant hereto, the Allocated Loan Amount for each Project shall be increased as set forth in Schedule 1.01(1) attached hereto.
 
(j)   Conditions to The Subsequent Funding Advance.  The obligation of each Lender to make the Subsequent Funding Advance is subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions precedent:
 
(i) Subsequent Funding Advance Notice.  The Administrative Agent shall have received the Subsequent Funding Advance Notice in compliance with the terms of this Section 2.11;
 
(ii) Representations and Warranties.  The representations and warranties made by the Borrower, the Operating Partnership and the other Borrower Parties contained in the Loan Documents shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date the Subsequent Funding Advance is made, with the same effect as if made on and as of such date, and the Borrower acknowledges that the submission of the Subsequent Funding Advance Notice shall constitute a certification by the Borrower that such representations and warranties are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date of the Subsequent Funding Advance Notice;
 
(iii) No Existing Default.  No Default or Event of Default shall exist or shall result from the making of the Subsequent Funding Advance;
 
(iv) Agreements Supplementing Deeds of Trusts.  Borrower shall execute and deliver such modifications, amendments and/or supplements to the Deeds of Trust and other Loan Documents in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent and the Borrower to reflect the additional Loans made from the Subsequent Funding Advance; and
 
(v) Title Insurance.  The Title Company shall have issued or irrevocably committed to issue (at the Borrower’s expense) an endorsement to the Title Policy which insures the priority of the Subsequent Funding Advance over all items other than Permitted Title Exceptions.
 
The Subsequent Funding Advance Notice submitted by the Borrower hereunder shall constitute a representation and warranty by Borrower hereunder, as of the date of such notice and as of the date of the making of the Subsequent Funding Advance, that the conditions in this Section 2.11 have been satisfied.
 
(i)            Unused Commitment Fee.  In the event Loans in the New Commitment Amounts are not fully funded on the Increase Date, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for allocation to the Lenders in accordance with their respective Subsequent Funding Commitment Percentage, an unused commitment fee equal to twenty-five basis points (0.25%) per annum (computed over the applicable monthly period on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed) times the actual daily amount of the aggregate outstanding Subsequent Funding Commitments of all Lenders having outstanding Subsequent Funding Commitments in effect on such day calculated for each day during the applicable calendar month.  The unused commitment fee shall accrue at all times while the Subsequent Funding Commitments of the Lenders remain in effect pursuant to this Agreement, but not beyond the Expiration Date, and shall be due and payable monthly in arrears on the first Business Day after the end of each calendar month (or portion thereof, in the case of the first payment), commencing with the first Business Day of the first full calendar month to occur after the Closing Date, and ending on the Expiration Date (or the end of such earlier month in which the Subsequent Funding Commitments have been fully funded or expired); provided, however, that if the Lenders fail to advance the Subsequent Funding Advance requested by the Borrower and so long as the provisions of Section 2.11(j) above have been satisfied, the unused commitment fee provided herein shall thereafter cease to accrue.  The unused commitment fee shall be calculated on a monthly basis in arrears.
 
 
ARTICLE III                                
 
PAYMENTS OF PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST
 
3.01   Repayment of Loans.  The Borrower hereby promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender the principal amount of such Lender’s outstanding Loans to the Borrower, together with accrued and unpaid interest, any applicable fees and all other amounts due under the Loan Documents with respect to such Loans, which amounts, to the extent not previously paid, shall, without notice, demand or other action, be due and payable on the Maturity Date.
 
3.02   Interest.
 
(a)   The Borrower hereby promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Loan (which may be Base Rate Loans and/or Eurodollar Loans) made by such Lender for the period from and including the date of such Loan to but excluding the date such Loan shall be paid in full if paid in the time and manner provided for in Section 4.01, at the following rates per annum:
 
(i) during such periods as such Loan is a Base Rate Loan, the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin; and
 
(ii) during such periods as such Loan is a Eurodollar Loan, for each Interest Period relating thereto, the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Loan for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin.
 
(b)   Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable (i) monthly in arrears on each Payment Date for all interest accrued through but not including the relevant Payment Date and (ii) in the case of any Loan, upon the payment or prepayment thereof (except as expressly provided in Section 2.09(a)(iii)) or the Conversion of such Loan to a Loan of another Type (but only on the principal amount so paid, prepaid or Converted), except that interest payable hereunder at the Post-Default Rate shall be payable from time to time on demand.
 
(c)   Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, after the Maturity Date and during any period when an Event of Default exists, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender interest at the applicable Post-Default Rate on the outstanding principal amount of any Loan made by such Lender, any interest payments thereon not paid when due and on any other amount due and payable by the Borrower hereunder, under the Notes and any other Loan Documents.
 
(d)   Promptly after the determination of any interest rate provided for herein or any change therein, the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Lenders to which such interest is payable and to the Borrower, but the failure of the Administrative Agent to provide such notice shall not affect the Borrower’s obligation for the payment of interest on the Loans.
 
(e)     In addition to any sums due under this Section 3.02, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders a late payment premium in the amount of four percent (4%) of (i) any payments of principal under the Loans not made when due, and (ii) any payments of interest or other sums under the Loans not made when due, provided, in each case, that such payments are not made within the earlier of (A) two (2) Business Days after the Borrower receives written notice from the Administrative Agent of Borrower’s failure to make such payment when due and (B) five (5) days after the date the same became due, which late payment premium shall be due with any such late payment or upon demand by the Administrative Agent.  Such late payment charge represents the reasonable estimate of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders of a fair average compensation for the loss that may be sustained by the Lenders due to the failure of the Borrower to make timely payments.  Such late charge shall be paid without prejudice to the right of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to collect any other amounts provided herein or in the other Loan Documents to be paid or to exercise any other rights or remedies under the Loan Documents.
 
(f)   Reserved.
 
3.03   Project-Level Account.  The Borrower shall, and shall cause the Property Manager to (a) deposit all Rents from the Projects, and all amounts received by the Borrower or the Property Manager constituting Rent or other revenue or sums of any kind from the Projects, into the applicable Project-Level Account for such Project in accordance with the Project-Level Account Security Agreement and (b) upon an Event of Default, and upon written request of the Administrative Agent, deliver irrevocable written instructions to all tenants under Leases to deliver all Rents payable thereunder directly to the applicable Project-Level Account for such Project.  The Borrower shall not maintain any checking, money market or other deposit accounts for the deposit and holding of any revenues or sums derived from the ownership or operation of the Projects other than the Project-Level Account (except for such replacement or additional deposit accounts in which the Administrative Agent shall have been granted, pursuant to a written instrument in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, a first priority security interest on the terms provided herein, in which case the “Project-Level Account” referred to herein shall include such replacement or additional account), other than (i) accounts into which funds initially deposited in a Project-Level Account have been, or may be, transferred in compliance with the Project-Level Account Security Agreement and (ii) any Cash Trap Account or Controlled Account required hereunder.

PAYMENTS; PRO RATA TREATMENT; COMPUTATIONS; ETC.
 
4.01   Payments.
 
(a)   Payments by the Borrower.  Except to the extent otherwise provided herein, all payments of principal, interest and other amounts to be made by the Borrower under this Agreement, the Notes and any other Loan Document, shall be made in Dollars, in immediately available funds, without deduction, set-off or counterclaim, to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Account, not later than 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date on which such payment shall become due (each such payment made after such time on such due date to be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day).
 
(b)   Application of Payments.  The Borrower may, at the time of making each payment under this Agreement, any Note or any other Loan Document for the account of any Lender (if such payment is not comprised solely of interest), specify to the Administrative Agent (which shall so notify the intended recipient(s) thereof) the Loans or other amounts to which such payment is to be applied (and in the event that the Borrower fails to so specify, or if an Event of Default exists, the Administrative Agent may apply such payment to amounts then due to the Lenders, subject to Section 4.02, pro rata in accordance with their Proportionate Share and, thereafter, may apply any remaining portion of such payment in such manner as it or the Required Lenders, subject to Section 4.02, may determine to be appropriate).  To the extent that the Borrower has the right pursuant to this Section 4.01(b) to designate the obligations to which a payment made by the Borrower under the Loan Documents is to be applied, the Borrower shall exercise such rights in such a manner as shall result in the application of such payment to the designated obligation in a manner that will result in each Lender receiving its pro rata share of the amount so paid by the Borrower on account of the designated obligation in proportion to the respective amounts then due and payable on account of the designated obligation to all Lenders entitled to payment of the designated obligation.  Notwithstanding the foregoing and to avoid any potential ambiguity between this provision and Section 2.06, nothing in the foregoing sentence is intended to modify or supersede Section 2.06.
 
(c)   Payments Received by the Administrative Agent.  Each payment received by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, any Note or any other Loan Document for account of any Lender shall be paid by the Administrative Agent promptly to such Lender (and in any event, the Administrative Agent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to pay such sums to such Lender on the same Business Day such sums are received by the Administrative Agent provided the Administrative Agent has actually received such sums prior to 3:00 p.m. on such Business Day), in immediately available funds, for account of such Lender’s Applicable Lending Office for the Loan or other obligation in respect of which such payment is made.  In the event that the Administrative Agent fails to make such payment to such Lender within two (2) Business Days of receipt, subject to any delays resulting from force majeure, then such Lender shall be entitled to interest from the Administrative Agent at the Federal Funds Rate from the date that such payment should have been paid by the Administrative Agent to such Lender until the Administrative Agent makes such payment.
 
(d)   Extension to Next Business Day.  If the due date of any payment under this Agreement or any Note would otherwise fall on a day that is not a Business Day, such date shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and interest shall be payable for any principal so extended for the period of such extension.
 
4.02   Pro Rata Treatment.  Except to the extent otherwise provided herein:  (a) each borrowing from the Lenders under Section 2.01 or Section 2.11 shall be made from the Lenders on a pro rata basis according to the amounts of their respective Commitments or, in the case of Subsequent Funding Advances, according to their respective Subsequent Funding Commitments, as applicable; (b) except as otherwise provided in Section 5.04, Eurodollar Loans having the same Interest Period shall be allocated pro rata among the Lenders according to the amounts of their respective Commitments (in the case of the making of Loans) or their respective Loans (in the case of Conversions and Continuations of Loans); (c) each payment or prepayment of principal of Loans by the Borrower shall be made for account of the Lenders on a pro rata basis in accordance with the respective unpaid principal amounts of the Loans held by them; and (d) each payment of interest on Loans by the Borrower shall be made for the account of the Lenders on a pro rata basis in accordance with the amounts of interest on such Loans then due and payable to the respective Lenders.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or in any of the other Loan Documents, (i) all payments received by the Administrative Agent on account of interest, principal (including, without limitation, prepayments), fees or other amounts which are required under this Agreement to be paid to the Lenders pro rata, or in accordance with their respective Proportionate Shares, shall be paid to the Lenders pro rata in proportion to the respective amounts of interest, principal, fees or other amounts, as applicable, then due and payable to all Lenders pursuant to the Loan Documents, and (ii) during the existence of an Event of Default, all payments received by the Administrative Agent with respect to the Loan shall be applied as provided in that certain Co-Lender Agreement to be entered into by and among the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, as the same may be Modified from time to time.
 
4.03   Computations.  Interest on all Loans shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which payable.
 
4.04   Minimum Amounts.  Except for (a) mandatory prepayments made pursuant to Section 2.07, 8.19(g), 10.03(j) or 14.25 of this Agreement or Section 7.08 of the Deed of Trust, (b) Conversions or prepayments made pursuant to Section 5.04, and (c) prepayments made pursuant to Section 2.06 or Section 2.09 (which shall be governed by such Sections) each borrowing, Conversion, Continuation and partial prepayment of principal other than made pursuant to Section 2.09 (collectively, “Loan Transactions”) of Loans shall be in an aggregate amount at least equal to $1,000,000 (Loan Transactions of or into Loans of different Types or Interest Periods at the same time hereunder shall be deemed separate Loan Transactions for purposes of the foregoing, one for each Type or Interest Period); provided that if any Loans or borrowings would otherwise be in a lesser principal amount for any period, such Loans shall be Base Rate Loans during such period.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the minimum amount of $1,000,000 shall not apply to Conversions of lesser amounts into a tranche of Loans that has (or will have upon such Conversion) an aggregate principal amount exceeding such minimum amount and one Interest Period.
 
4.05   Certain Notices.  Notices by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent regarding Loan Transactions and the selection of Types of Loans and/or of the duration of Interest Periods shall be effective only if received by the Administrative Agent not later than 3:00 PM, New York City time, on the date which is the number of calendar days or Business Days, as applicable, prior to the date of the proposed Loan Transaction specified immediately below:
 
Notice                                                                           Number of Days Prior

Eurodollar Loans                                                                                     for such Conversion
 
Continuation or change)

Notices of the selection of Types of Loans and/or of the duration of Interest Periods shall be irrevocable.  Each notice of a Loan Transaction shall specify the amount (subject to Section 4.04), Type, and Interest Period of such proposed Loan Transaction, and the date (which shall be a Business Day) of such proposed Loan Transaction.  Notices for Conversions and Continuations shall be in the form of Exhibit L attached hereto.  Each such notice specifying the duration of an Interest Period shall specify the portion of the Loans to which such Interest Period is to relate.  The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders of the contents of each such notice.  If the Borrower fails to select (i) the Type of Loan or (ii) the duration of any Interest Period for any Eurodollar Loan within the time period (i.e., three (3) Business Days prior to the first day of the next applicable Interest Period) and otherwise as provided in this Section 4.05, such Loan (if outstanding as a Eurodollar Loan) will automatically be continued as a Eurodollar Loan as of the last day of the then current Interest Period for such Loan, with such Eurodollar Loan having an Interest Period of one month, and the Borrower shall be deemed to have provided to the Administrative Agent three (3) Business Days prior to the first day of such Interest Period a duly completed and unqualified notice requesting such Continuation in the form of Exhibit L.
 
4.06   Non-Receipt of Funds by the Administrative Agent.  Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by a Lender or the Borrower (each, for purposes of this Section 4.06, a “Payor”) prior to the date on which such Payor is to make payment to the Administrative Agent of (in the case of a Lender) the proceeds of a Loan to be made by such Payor hereunder or (in the case of the Borrower) a payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of one or more of the Lenders hereunder (such payment being herein called a “Required Payment”), which notice shall be effective upon receipt, that such Payor does not intend to make such Required Payment to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Required Payment has been made and may, in reliance upon such assumption (but shall not be required to), make the amount thereof available to the intended recipient(s) on such date; and, if such Payor has not in fact made the Required Payment to the Administrative Agent, the recipient(s) of such payment from the Administrative Agent shall, on demand, repay to the Administrative Agent the amount so made available together with interest thereon in respect of each day during the period commencing on the date (the “Advance Date”) such amount was so made available by the Administrative Agent until the date the Administrative Agent recovers such amount at a rate per annum equal to (a) the Federal Funds Rate for such day in the case of payments returned to the Administrative Agent by any of the Lenders or (b) the applicable interest rate due hereunder with respect to payments returned by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent and, if such recipient(s) shall fail to promptly make such payment, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount, on demand, from such Payor, together with interest at the same rates as aforesaid; provided that if neither the recipient(s) nor such Payor shall return the Required Payment to the Administrative Agent within three (3) Business Days (five (5) days in the case the Borrower is the Payor) of the Advance Date, then, retroactively to the Advance Date, such Payor and the recipient(s) shall each be obligated to pay interest on the Required Payment as follows:
 
(i) if the Required Payment shall represent a payment to be made by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders, the Borrower and the recipient(s) shall each be obligated to pay interest retroactively to the Advance Date in respect of the Required Payment at the Post-Default Rate (without duplication of the obligation of the Borrower under Section 3.02 to pay interest on the Required Payment at the Post-Default Rate), it being understood that the return by the recipient(s) of the Required Payment to the Administrative Agent shall not limit such obligation of the Borrower under Section 3.02 to pay interest at the Post-Default Rate in respect of the Required Payment, and it being further understood that to the extent the Administrative Agent actually receives from the Borrower any such interest at the Post-Default Rate on such Required Payment, such amount so received shall be credited against the amount of interest (if any) payable by the applicable recipient(s), and
 
(ii) if the Required Payment shall represent proceeds of a Loan to be made by the Lenders to the Borrower, such Payor and the Borrower shall each be obligated retroactively to the Advance Date to pay interest in respect of the Required Payment pursuant to whichever of the rates specified in Section 3.02 is applicable to the Type of such Loan, it being understood that the return by the Borrower of the Required Payment to the Administrative Agent shall not limit any claim that the Borrower may have against such Payor in respect of such Required Payment and shall not relieve such Payor of any obligation it may have hereunder or under any other Loan Documents to the Borrower and no advance by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower under this Section 4.06 shall release any Lender of its obligation to fund such Loan except as set forth in the following sentence.  If any such Lender shall thereafter advance any such Required Payment to the Administrative Agent, together with interest on such Required Payment as provided herein, such Required Payment shall be deemed such Lender’s applicable Loan to the Borrower and shall be advanced by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower to the extent the Borrower has remitted the Required Payment and such interest to the Administrative Agent.
 
4.07   Sharing of Payments, Etc.
 
(a)   Sharing.  If any Lender shall obtain payment of any principal of or interest on any Loan owing to it or payment of any other amount under this Agreement or any other Loan Document through the exercise (subject to the provisions of Section 14.10) of any right of set-off, banker’s lien or counterclaim or similar right or otherwise (other than from the Administrative Agent as provided herein), and, as a result of such payment, such Lender shall have received a greater percentage of the principal of or interest on the Loans or such other amounts then due hereunder or thereunder by the Borrower to such Lender than the percentage received by any other Lender, it shall promptly purchase from such other Lenders participations in (or, if and to the extent specified by such Lender, direct interests in) the Loans or such other amounts, respectively, owing to such other Lenders (or in interest due thereon, as the case may be) in such amounts, and make such other adjustments from time to time as shall be equitable, to the end that all the Lenders shall share the benefit of such excess payment (net of any expenses that may be incurred by such Lender in obtaining or preserving such excess payment) pro rata in accordance with the unpaid principal of and/or interest on the Loans or such other amounts, respectively, owing to each of the Lenders.  To such end all the Lenders shall make appropriate adjustments among themselves (by the resale of participations sold or otherwise) if such payment is rescinded or must otherwise be restored.  Each Lender agrees that it shall turn over to the Administrative Agent (for distribution by the Administrative Agent to the other Lenders in accordance with the terms of this Agreement) any payment (whether voluntary or involuntary, through the exercise of any right of setoff or otherwise) on account of the Loans held by it in excess of its ratable portion of payments on account of the Loans obtained by all the Lenders.
 
(b)   Consent by the Borrower.  The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing such a participation (or direct interest) may exercise (subject, as among the Lenders, to Section 14.10) all rights of set-off, banker’s lien, counterclaim or similar rights with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct holder of Loans or other amounts (as the case may be) owing to such Lender in the amount of such participation.
 
(c)   Rights of Lenders; Bankruptcy.  Nothing contained herein shall require any Lender to exercise any right of set-off, banker’s lien or counterclaim or similar right or otherwise or shall affect the right of any Lender to exercise, and retain the benefits of exercising, any such right with respect to any other indebtedness or obligation of the Borrower.  If, under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, any Lender receives a secured claim in lieu of a set-off to which this Section 4.07 applies, then such Lender shall, to the extent practicable, exercise its rights in respect of such secured claim in a manner consistent with the rights of the Lenders entitled under this Section 4.07 to share in the benefits of any recovery on such secured claim.
 
 
ARTICLE V                                
 
YIELD PROTECTION, ETC.
 
5.01   Additional Costs.
 
(a)   Costs of Making or Maintaining Eurodollar Loans.  The Borrower shall pay directly to each Lender from time to time such amounts as such Lender may determine to be necessary to compensate such Lender for any costs that such Lender determines are attributable to its making or maintaining of any Eurodollar Loans, or its obligation to make any Eurodollar Loans, hereunder, or, subject to the following provisions of this Article V, any reduction in any amount receivable by such Lender hereunder in respect of any of such Eurodollar Loans or such obligation (such increases in costs and reductions in amounts receivable being herein called “Additional Costs”), provided such Additional Costs result from any Regulatory Change that:
 
(i) shall subject any Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office for any of such Eurodollar Loans) to any tax, duty or other charge in respect of such Eurodollar Loans or its Note or changes the basis of taxation of any amounts payable to such Lender under this Agreement or its Note in respect of any of such Eurodollar Loans (other than Excluded Taxes); or
 
(ii) imposes or Modifies any reserve, special deposit or similar requirements (other than the Reserve Requirement utilized in the determination of the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Eurodollar Loan) relating to any extensions of credit or other assets of, or any deposits with or other liabilities of, any Lender (including any of such Eurodollar Loans or any deposits referred to in the definition of “LIBO Rate” in Section 1.01), or any commitment of such Lender (including the Commitment of such Lender hereunder); or
 
(iii) imposes any other condition affecting this Agreement or the Note of any Lender (or any of such extensions of credit or liabilities) or its Commitment.
 
If any Lender requests compensation from the Borrower under this Section 5.01(a) or Section 5.01(b), the Borrower may, by notice to such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), suspend the obligation of such Lender thereafter to make or Continue Eurodollar Loans, or to Convert Base Rate Loans into Eurodollar Loans, until the Regulatory Change giving rise to such request ceases to be in effect or until the Borrower notifies such Lender that the Borrower is lifting such suspension (in which case the provisions of Section 5.04 shall be applicable), provided that such suspension shall not affect the right of such Lender to receive the compensation so requested for so long as any Eurodollar Loan remains in effect.
 
(b)   Costs Attributable to Regulatory Change or Risk-Based Capital Guidelines.  Without limiting the effect of the provisions of this Section 5.01 (but without duplication), the Borrower shall pay to each Lender from time to time on request such amounts as such Lender may determine to be necessary to compensate such Lender (or, without duplication, the bank holding company or other legal entity of which such Lender is a subsidiary) for any costs that it determines are attributable to the maintenance of its Eurodollar Loans hereunder by such Lender (or any Applicable Lending Office or such bank holding company or other legal entity), pursuant to any law or regulation or any interpretation, directive or request (whether or not having the force of law and whether or not failure to comply therewith would be unlawful) of any Governmental Authority (i) following any Regulatory Change with respect to such law, regulation, interpretation, directive or request resulting in such costs or (ii) implementing any risk-based capital guideline or other requirement of capital (whether or not having the force of law and whether or not the failure to comply therewith would be unlawful) hereafter issued by any Governmental Authority implementing at the national level the Basel Accord, in respect of its Commitment or its Eurodollar Loans (such compensation to include an amount equal to any reduction of the rate of return on assets or equity of such Lender (or any Applicable Lending Office or such bank holding company or other legal entity) to a level below that which such Lender (or any Applicable Lending Office or such bank holding company or other legal entity) could have achieved but for such law, regulation, interpretation, directive or request).
 
(c)   Notification and Certification.  Each Lender shall notify the Borrower of any event occurring after the date hereof entitling such Lender to compensation under subsections (a) or (b) of this Section 5.01 (setting forth in reasonable detail the basis of such determination) as promptly as practicable, but in any event within sixty (60) days, after such Lender obtains actual knowledge thereof; provided that (i) if any Lender fails to give such notice within sixty (60) days after it obtains actual knowledge of such an event, such Lender shall, with respect to compensation payable pursuant to this Section 5.01 in respect of any costs resulting from such event, be entitled to payment under this Section 5.01 only for costs incurred from and after the date sixty (60) days prior to the date that such Lender does give such notice and (ii) each Lender shall designate a different Applicable Lending Office (if applicable) for the Eurodollar Loans of such Lender affected by such event if such designation will avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such compensation and will not, in the sole opinion of such Lender, be disadvantageous to such Lender.  Each Lender shall furnish to the Borrower a certificate setting forth the basis and amount of each request by such Lender for compensation under subsection (a) or (b) of this Section 5.01.  Determinations and allocations by any Lender for purposes of this Section 5.01 of the effect of any Regulatory Change pursuant to subsection (a) or (b) of this Section 5.01, or of the effect of capital maintained pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section 5.01, on its costs or rate of return of maintaining Eurodollar Loans or its obligation to make Eurodollar Loans, or on amounts receivable by it in respect of Eurodollar Loans, and of the amounts required to compensate such Lender under this Section 5.01, as set forth in the certificate of the Lender, shall be prima facie evidence of the accuracy of the determinations and calculations contained or asserted therein.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, it shall be a condition to the Borrower’s obligation to pay compensation under subsections (a) or (b) of this Section 5.01 that such compensation requirements are also being imposed on substantially all other similar classes or categories of commercial loans or commitments of such Lender similarly affected by the Regulatory Change and the other guidelines and requirements referred to in this Section 5.01.
 
5.02   Limitation on Eurodollar Loans.  Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if, on or prior to the determination of any LIBO Rate for any Interest Period for any Eurodollar Loan:
 
(a)   after making reasonable efforts, the Administrative Agent determines, which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error, that quotations of interest rates for the relevant deposits referred to in the definition of “LIBO Rate” in Section 1.01 are not being provided in the relevant amounts or for the relevant maturities for purposes of determining rates of interest for Eurodollar Loans as provided herein; or
 
(b)   the Administrative Agent determines, which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error, that, as a result of circumstances arising after the Closing Date, the relevant rates of interest referred to in the definition of “LIBO Rate” in Section 1.01 upon the basis of which the rate of interest for Eurodollar Loans for such Interest Period is to be determined are not likely adequately to cover the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining Eurodollar Loans for such Interest Period;
 
 then the Administrative Agent shall give the Borrower and each Lender prompt notice thereof and, so long as such condition remains in effect, the Lenders shall be under no obligation to make additional Eurodollar Loans, to Continue Eurodollar Loans or to Convert Base Rate Loans into Eurodollar Loans, and the Borrower shall, on the last day(s) of the then current Interest Period(s) for the outstanding Eurodollar Loans, either prepay such Eurodollar Loans in accordance with Sections 2.06 and 2.07 or, in accordance with Section 2.05, Convert such Eurodollar Loans into Base Rate Loans or other Eurodollar Loans in amounts and maturities which are still being provided.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) if the applicable conditions under clauses (a) or (b) of this Section 5.02 affect only a portion of the Eurodollar Loans, the balance of the Eurodollar Loans may continue as Eurodollar Loans and (ii) if the applicable conditions under clauses (a) and (b) of this Section 5.02 only affect certain Interest Periods, the Borrower, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, may elect to have Eurodollar Loans with such other Interest Periods.
 
5.03   Illegality.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if it becomes unlawful for any Lender or its Applicable Lending Office to honor its obligation to make or maintain Eurodollar Loans hereunder (and, in the sole opinion of such Lender, the designation of a different Applicable Lending Office would either not avoid such unlawfulness or would be disadvantageous to such Lender), then such Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower thereof (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) and such Lender’s obligation to make or Continue, or to Convert portions of its Loan of any other Type into, Eurodollar Loans shall be suspended until such time as such Lender may again make and maintain Eurodollar Loans (in which case the provisions of Section 5.04 shall be applicable).
 
5.04   Treatment of Affected Loans.  If the obligation of any Lender to make Eurodollar Loans or to Continue, or to Convert Base Rate Loans into, Eurodollar Loans shall be suspended pursuant to Sections 5.01 or 5.03, then such Lender’s Eurodollar Loans shall be automatically Converted into Base Rate Loans on the last day(s) of the then current Interest Period(s) for Eurodollar Loans (or, in the case of a Conversion resulting from a circumstance described in Section 5.03, on such earlier date as such Lender may specify to the Borrower with a copy to the Administrative Agent) and, unless and until either (a) such Lender gives notice as provided below that the circumstances specified in Sections 5.01 or 5.03 that gave rise to such Conversion no longer exist or (b) the Borrower, in the case of Section 5.01, ends any suspension by the Borrower:
 
(a)   to the extent that such Lender’s Eurodollar Loans have been so Converted, all payments and prepayments of principal that would otherwise be applied to such Lender’s Eurodollar Loans shall be applied instead to its Base Rate Loans; and
 
(b)   all portions of its Loan that would otherwise be made or Continued by such Lender as Eurodollar Loans shall be made or Continued instead as Base Rate Loans, and all Base Rate Loans of such Lender that would otherwise be Converted into Eurodollar Loans shall remain as Base Rate Loans.
 
If such Lender gives notice to the Borrower with a copy to the Administrative Agent that the circumstances specified in Section 5.01 or 5.03 that gave rise to the Conversion of such Lender’s Eurodollar Loans pursuant to this Section 5.04 no longer exist (which notice such Lender agrees to give promptly upon such circumstances ceasing to exist) or the Borrower terminates its applicable suspension at a time when Eurodollar Loans made by other Lenders are outstanding, such Lender’s Base Rate Loans shall be automatically Converted, on the first day(s) of the next succeeding Interest Period(s) for such outstanding Eurodollar Loans, to the extent necessary so that, after giving effect thereto, all Base Rate and Eurodollar Loans are allocated among the Lenders ratably (as to principal amounts, Types and Interest Periods) in accordance with their respective Commitments.
 
5.05   Compensation.  The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for account of each Lender, upon the request of such Lender through the Administrative Agent, such amount as shall be sufficient to compensate it for any loss, cost or expense that such Lender reasonably determines is attributable to:
 
(a)   any payment, mandatory or optional prepayment or Conversion of a Eurodollar Loan made by such Lender for any reason (including the acceleration of the Loans pursuant to Article XII) on a date other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan;
 
(b)   any failure by the Borrower for any reason to prepay a Eurodollar Loan pursuant to a notice of prepayment given in accordance with Section 2.06 (or any notice timely given postponing the date for prepayment given in accordance with Section 2.08), unless such notice is timely revoked pursuant to a notice of revocation given in accordance with Section 2.08; or
 
(c)   the assignment of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the applicable Interest Period as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 5.07.
 
Without limiting the effect of the preceding provisions, such compensation shall include an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest that otherwise would have accrued on the principal amount so paid, prepaid, Converted or not borrowed for the period from the date of such payment, prepayment, Conversion or failure to borrow to the last day of the then current Interest Period for such Loan (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, the Interest Period for such Loan that would have commenced on the date specified for such borrowing) at the applicable Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Loan provided for herein over (ii) the amount of interest that such Lender would earn on such principal amount for such period if such Lender would have bid in the London interbank market for Dollar deposits of leading banks in amounts comparable to such principal amount and with maturities comparable to such period (as reasonably determined by such Lender), or if such Lender shall not, or shall cease to, make such bids, the equivalent rate, as reasonably determined by such Lender, derived from Reuters Screen LIBOR01 Page (formerly operated as Page 3750 of the Dow Jones Markets Service (Telerate)) or other publicly available source as described in the definition of “LIBO Rate” in Section 1.01, plus, in the case of Section 5.05(c), the amount of interest for such period paid to such Lender pursuant to Section 5.07.  A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 5.05 shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be prima facie evidence of the accuracy of the determinations and calculations contained or asserted therein.  The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof.  Any payment due to any of the Lenders pursuant to this Section 5.05 shall be deemed additional interest under such Lender’s Note.
 
5.06   Taxes.
 
(a)   Payments Free of Taxes.  Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if the Borrower shall be required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 5.06) the Administrative Agent and each Lender (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.
 
(b)   Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower.  In addition, the Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.
 
(c)   Indemnification by the Borrower.  The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, within ten (10) days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 5.06) and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other 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 the Borrower by a Lender or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be prima facie evidence of the accuracy of the determinations and calculations contained or asserted therein.
 
(d)   Evidence of Payments.  As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority, the Borrower shall deliver to the 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 reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(b)   Without limiting the foregoing provisions of clause (a) above as it relates to the Projects or any portion of the Trillium Project other than the Ground Leased Property, the provisions of this clause (b) shall apply solely as to the LP Borrower and its ownership of the Ground Leased Property (and not with respect to the Trillium Project or any of the other Projects).  The LP Borrower shall comply in all material respects (subject to such more stringent requirements as may be set forth elsewhere herein) with all Applicable Laws that are applicable to it or its interest in the Trillium Project (and excluding those Applicable Laws that specifically and exclusively relate to the Ground Lessee or the interest of the Ground Lessee under the Ground Lease), and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to enforce the provisions of the Ground Lease to cause the Ground Lessee to comply with its obligations under the Ground Lease to comply with Applicable Laws to the extent required by the Ground Lease or Applicable Law and within the LP Borrower’s reasonable control.  The LP Borrower shall maintain in full force and effect all required Government Approvals that are applicable to it and shall comply, in all material respects, with all such Government Approvals and keep them in full force and effect.  The LP Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts to enforce the provisions of the Ground Lease to cause the Ground Lessee to comply with its obligations under the Ground Lease to obtain all Government Approvals as shall now or hereafter be necessary under Applicable Law in connection with the operation or maintenance of the Ground Leased Property to the extent required by the Ground Lease or Applicable Law and within the LP Borrower’s reasonable control.  Upon request from time to time, the LP Borrower shall promptly furnish a true, correct and complete copy of each Government Approval required to be maintained by the LP Borrower to the Administrative Agent, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to enforce the provisions of the Ground Lease to cause the Ground Lessee to comply with its obligations under the Ground Lease to deliver a copy of each Governmental Approval necessary under Applicable Law in connection with the operation or maintenance of the Ground Leased Property to the LP Borrower, and shall thereafter deliver a true, correct and complete copy thereof to the Administrative Agent.  Subject to the provisions of the Ground Lease, the LP Borrower shall, unless otherwise approved by the Administrative Agent in writing or prohibited under the terms of the Ground Lease, use its reasonable efforts to contest any proceedings before any Governmental Authority and to resist any proposed adverse changes in Applicable Law to the extent that such proceedings or changes are directed specifically toward the Ground Leased Property or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, but in each case only if and to the extent that the LP Borrower deems such action to be in the best interests of the Trillium Project in the exercise of its business judgment.  The LP Borrower shall be permitted to permit the Ground Lessee to contest the applicability of such Applicable Law or Governmental Approval on the terms set forth in Section 8.04(c) or on such other terms as may be permitted by the Ground Lease.  In the event that the Ground Lessee breaches any of its obligations under the Ground Lease that are referenced in this Section in any material respect, the LP Borrower shall provide the Administrative Agent with notice promptly upon becoming aware thereof, and, if such breach could reasonably be expected either to have a Material Adverse Effect on the Trillium Project (determined as if the Trillium Project were the sole collateral for the Allocated Loan Amount that is allocated to the Trillium Project) or otherwise to have a Material Adverse Effect (either, an “LP Borrower MAE Effect”), the LP Borrower shall (unless the LP Borrower shall be exercising its rights to contest the applicability of such Applicable Law or Governmental Approval in accordance with Section 8.05(b)) furnish to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders such security as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, to ensure that the failure of the Ground Lessee to comply with such Applicable Law or to maintain in effect such Governmental Approval shall not have an LP Borrower MAE Effect.
 
(c)   The Borrower, at its own expense, may contest by appropriate legal proceedings promptly initiated and conducted in good faith and with due diligence, the validity or application of any Applicable Law, and shall provide the Administrative Agent with notice of any such contest of a material nature, provided that:
 
(i) Reserved;

(iii) such proceeding shall be permitted under and be conducted in accordance with the applicable provisions of any other instrument governing the contest of such Applicable Laws to which the Borrower or any such Project is subject and shall not constitute a default thereunder;
 
(iv) no part of or interest in any Project (or the Borrower’s interest therein) will be in danger of being sold, forfeited, terminated, canceled or lost during the pendency of the proceeding;
 
(v) such proceeding shall not subject the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any Lender to criminal or civil liability (other than civil liability of the Borrower as to which adequate security has been provided pursuant to clause (vi) below);
 
(vi) unless paid under protest, the Borrower shall have furnished such security as may be required in the proceeding, or as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, to insure the payment of any such items, together with all interest and penalties thereon, which shall not be less than 110% of the maximum liability of the Borrower as reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent; and

8.15   Subordination, Non-Disturbance and Attornment Agreements.  The Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide to the Administrative Agent SNDA Agreements executed by each tenant under a Major Lease prior to the Closing Date; provided, however, that in addition to the obligations set forth in Section 9.09(c), if the Borrower does not obtain all such SNDA Agreements by the Closing Date, the Borrower shall continue to use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such SNDA Agreements after the Closing Date.
 
8.16   Operating Plan and Budget.
 
(a)   Commencing with the budget for the calendar year 2008 and then annually thereafter, the Borrower shall submit to the Administrative Agent an annual budget for each Project (each an “Annual Budget”), in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent setting forth in detail budgeted monthly Operating Income and monthly Operating Expenses for each such Project (which may be in the form of the calendar year 2008 budget for each Project provided to the Administrative Agent prior to the Closing Date).  The Annual Budget for each year shall be delivered together with the annual financial statement for the preceding year pursuant to Section 8.01(a).  During any Low DSCR Trigger Period but not otherwise, the Administrative Agent shall have the right to approve such Annual Budget (including, without limitation, the Annual Budget for the portions of the calendar year in which such Low DSCR Trigger Period occurs following after the commencement of such Low DSCR Trigger Period).  Within fifty (50) days following the end of any calendar quarter which comprises a Low DSCR Trigger Period, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent for its approval the Annual Budget (in the format as described above) for the calendar year in which such Low DSCR Trigger Period occurs (together with a reconciliation to that Annual Budget of actual revenues and expenses year-to-date), and shall thereafter deliver to Administrative Agent for its approval the Annual Budget (in the format as described above) proposed by the Borrower for the succeeding calendar year, by no later than the November 15 preceding such calendar year.  The Administrative Agent shall not unreasonably withhold its approval of any Annual Budget as required hereunder; provided, however, that if during any Low DSCR Trigger Period the actual monthly Operating Expenses exceed budgeted Operating Expenses in any month during any period by more than ten percent (10%), the Administrative Agent shall have the right to require the Borrower to submit for its approval a revised Annual Budget for review and approval by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion.  If the Administrative Agent objects to any proposed Annual Budget for which approval is required hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Borrower of such objections within fifteen (15) Business Days after receipt thereof (and deliver to the Borrower a reasonably detailed description of such objections), and the Borrower shall within five (5) days after receipt of notice of any such objections revise such Annual Budget and resubmit the same to the Administrative Agent (such procedure to be repeated until such time as the Administrative Agent shall approve such Annual Budget).  Each such Annual Budget submitted to and (to the extent that such approval is required hereunder) approved by the Administrative Agent in accordance with terms hereof, as well as the budget for the current calendar year approved by the Administrative Agent on the Closing Date, shall hereinafter be referred to as an “Approved Annual Budget”.  Until such time that the Administrative Agent has approved a proposed Annual Budget for which its approval is required hereunder, the most recently Approved Annual Budget shall apply for purposes of this Section 8.16; provided that such Approved Annual Budget shall be adjusted to reflect actual increases in real estate taxes, insurance premiums, utilities expenses and other fixed costs and shall otherwise be adjusted to reflect any change during the preceding year in the Consumer Price Index.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders acknowledge that the Borrower is not required to operate under the terms of an Approved Annual Budget during any period other than a Low DSCR Trigger Period.
 
(b)   During any Low DSCR Trigger Period, the Borrower may at any time propose an amendment to an Approved Annual Budget for any Project for the remainder of the calendar year in which such Low DSCR Trigger Period has occurred, and, when approved as provided below, such amended Approved Annual Budget for such Project shall be deemed to be and shall be effective as the Approved Annual Budget for such Project for such calendar year.  Prior to making any expenditures not reflected in any current Approved Annual Budget in excess of ten percent (10%) of the budgeted amount therefor, the Borrower shall propose an amendment to such Approved Annual Budget to the Administrative Agent for its approval in accordance with the standards for the granting or withholding of consent to Annual Budgets set forth in Section 8.16(a).  The Administrative Agent shall have fifteen (15) Business Days after receipt of any proposed amendment to such Approved Annual Budget to approve or disapprove such proposed amendment.
 
8.17   Operating Expenses.  The Borrower shall pay all known costs and expenses of operating, maintaining, leasing and otherwise owning the Projects (excluding those that are the responsibility of the Ground Lessee under the Ground Lease) on a current basis and before the same become delinquent (subject however to the other provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents), including all interest, principal (when due) and other sums required to be paid under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the Hedge Agreement, before utilizing any revenues derived or to be derived from or in respect of the Projects for any other purpose, including distributions or other payments to the Borrower’s Member/General Partner.
 
8.18   Margin Regulations.  No part of the proceeds of the Loans will be used for the purpose of purchasing or acquiring any “margin stock” within the meaning of Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or for any other purpose which would be inconsistent with such Regulation T, U, X or any other Regulations of such Board of Governors, or for any purposes prohibited by Legal Requirements.
 
8.19   Hedge Agreements.
 
(a)   The Borrower shall obtain, or cause to be obtained by an Other Swap Pledgor, (i) no later than thirty (30) days after the Closing Date and will at all times thereafter maintain, or cause to be maintained by an Other Swap Pledgor, in full force and effect, one or more Hedge Agreements in the aggregate notional amount equal to at least one hundred percent (100%) of the Initial Advance, and (ii) in the event the Borrower elects to obtain the Subsequent Funding Advance pursuant to Section 2.11 of this Agreement, no later than the Expiration Date, and will at all times thereafter maintain, or cause to be maintained by an Other Swap Pledgor, in full force and effect, one or more Hedge Agreements in the aggregate notional amount equal to an amount, which when combined with the Hedge Agreement(s) obtained in satisfaction of the foregoing clause (i) is at least seventy-five percent (75%) of the Outstanding Principal Amount of the Loans plus the Unused Commitments at such time (in either case, the “Aggregate Notional Amount”), in each case, which Hedge Agreement(s) shall be approved by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion with (A) Eurohypo or its Affiliates or (B) one or more other banks or insurance companies as counterparties (each a “Third-Party Counterparty”), which is effective to cause the All-in-Rate as to the applicable Aggregate Notional Amount commencing no later than the date that is thirty (30) days after the Closing Date or no later than the Expiration Date, as the case may be, (or, if such day is not a Business Day, the first Business Day thereafter) to be not in excess of the rate per annum through the Hedging Termination Date that is necessary to satisfy a Debt Service Coverage Ratio for all the Projects of at least 1.25:1.00 as of the date such Hedge Agreement is entered into.  Upon the Closing Date or the Expiration Date, as applicable, the Borrower shall deliver, or cause to be delivered by an Other Swap Pledgor, a Hedge Agreement Pledge, substantially in the form of Exhibit G-1 attached hereto, together with, within thirty (30) days after the Closing Date or in the case of the Hedge Agreement(s) obtained pursuant to clause (ii) above, on or prior to the Expiration Date, the applicable bid package, confirmation and other documentation for such Hedge Agreement (including, without limitation, a certificate from an Authorized Officer of the Borrower certifying that a Hedge Agreement has been entered into on the terms set forth in the confirmation) as may be reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent evidencing compliance with the Borrower’s obligations under the provisions of this Section 8.19, and within ten (10) days after the delivery of each such Hedge Agreement (or, in the case of the Hedge Agreement obtained pursuant to clause (i) above, within the thirty (30) day period referred to above) shall deliver the applicable counterparty acknowledgment.  Any Hedge Agreement shall require monthly fixed rate and floating rate payments and be based on a LIBO Rate of interest having, at the Borrower’s option, successive Interest Periods (an “Interest Rate Hedge Period”) of one, two, three, six or twelve months (or, for the purpose of satisfying the requirements of Section 2.10, for any period after the Hedging Termination Date, at Borrower’s option, one or more Interest Periods of six months) or such other Interest Periods satisfactory to the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 8.19, the Borrower or any Other Swap Pledgor shall be entitled to enter into one or more Hedge Agreements in excess of the Aggregate Notional Amount, up to the total amount of the Commitments or providing interest rate protection for periods that extend beyond the Hedging Termination Date (each such agreement, but only to the extent that it, after giving effect to all other Hedge Agreements maintained pursuant to this Section 8.19(a), relates to a notional amount in excess of the Aggregate Notional Amount or provides interest rate protection for periods that extend beyond the Hedging Termination Date, is referred to herein as an “Excess Hedge Agreement”) on terms acceptable to the Borrower or such Other Swap Pledgor; provided, however, that Borrower shall deliver, or cause to be delivered by an Other Swap Pledgor, upon the Administrative Agent’s request in accordance with the time requirements set forth in this Section 8.19(a), a Hedge Agreement Pledge with respect to each Excess Hedge Agreement, substantially in the form of Exhibit G-2 attached hereto, together with the counterparty’s acknowledgment and other instruments provided to be delivered thereunder.
 
(b)   The Borrower’s obligations under any Hedge Agreement shall not be secured by the Deeds of Trust and shall not be secured by any Lien on or in all or any portion of the collateral under the Security Documents, any direct or indirect interest in the Borrower or any other Property (other than as permitted pursuant to Section 9.02(i)).
 
(c)   Any Hedge Agreement with a Third-Party Counterparty is herein called a “Third-Party Hedge Agreement.”  With respect to each Third-Party Hedge Agreement maintained with respect to the Aggregate Notional Amount and each Excess Hedge Agreement pledged to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 8.19(a):  (i) the Third-Party Counterparty providing such Third-Party Hedge Agreement must have a long term credit rating no lower than “A” from S&P or “A2” from Moody’s at the time of entry into such Third-Party Hedge Agreement; provided, however, if there is a difference in the then current S&P rating and the Moody’s rating, the lesser rating shall be applicable; (ii) the form and substance thereof must be satisfactory to the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion and in all respects and (iii) each counterparty thereunder shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent a counterparty’s acknowledgment in the form attached to the Hedge Agreement Pledge applicable thereto (or in such other form as may be acceptable to the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion).
 
(d)   Reserved.
 
(e)   If the Borrower fails for any reason or cause whatsoever to secure and maintain, or cause to be secured and maintained by an Other Swap Pledgor, a Hedge Agreement with respect to the Aggregate Notional Amount as and when required to do so hereunder, such failure shall constitute an Event of Default and the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to exercise all rights and remedies available to it under this Agreement (for the benefit of the Lenders) and the other Loan Documents or otherwise, including the right (but not the obligation) of the Administrative Agent to secure or otherwise enter into one or more Hedge Agreements with respect to the Aggregate Notional Amount with a Lender for and on behalf of the Borrower without such action constituting a cure of such Event of Default and without waiving the Administrative Agent’s or the Lenders’ rights arising out of or in connection with such Event of Default.  It is understood that Borrower’s failure to provide any Hedge Agreement required by Section 2.10 shall not be an Event of Default or entitle the Administrative Agent to secure or otherwise enter into one or more Hedge Agreements with respect to the Aggregate Notional Amount, but shall instead have the consequences provided in Section 2.10; provided, however, that upon entering into a Hedge Agreement pursuant to Section 2.10, Borrower shall continue to maintain such Hedge Agreement in accordance with, and otherwise as required by the applicable provisions of Sections 2.10 and 8.19 of this Agreement.  If the Administrative Agent shall enter into a Hedge Agreement with a Lender in accordance with its right to do so pursuant to this subsection (e), then (i) the terms and provisions of any such Hedge Agreement, including the term thereof, shall be determined by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion (except that the maximum notional amount of all such Hedge Agreements shall not exceed the Aggregate Notional Amount) and (ii) the Borrower shall pay all of the Administrative Agent’s costs and expenses in connection therewith, including any fees charged by the applicable counterparty, attorneys’ fees and disbursements, and the cost of additional title insurance in an amount determined by the Administrative Agent to be necessary to protect the Administrative Agent and the Lenders from potential funding losses under any Hedge Agreement provided by a Lender.
 
(f)   Reserved.
 
(g)   If the Borrower or Other Swap Pledgor is entitled to receive a payment upon the termination of any Hedge Agreement required by this Section 8.19, or, while any Event of Default exists, under any Excess Hedge Agreement pledged to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 8.19(a) (it being understood that any termination payment paid with respect to any Excess Hedge Agreement shall be delivered to the Borrower or Other Swap Pledgor at any time while an Event of Default does not exist) such payment shall be delivered to the Administrative Agent and applied by the Administrative Agent to any amounts due to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders under the Loan Documents evidencing the Loans (it being understood that any such payment applied to the principal of the Loans shall be deemed a prepayment of such principal, and shall be accompanied by any applicable prepayment premium resulting from such prepayment, or such termination payment shall be applied in part to pay such principal and in part to pay such prepayment premium) in such order and priority as the Administrative Agent shall determine in its sole discretion.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (i) at any time upon or following any principal prepayment made pursuant to Section 2.06 the Outstanding Principal Amount is reduced and the Borrower or Other Swap Pledgor elects at its option to terminate or partially to terminate, or to reduce the notional amount of, any Hedge Agreement (or is required under the terms of such Hedge Agreement to do so) in a notional amount (in either such case) not exceeding, respectively, the amount by which the aggregate notional amount in effect under the Hedge Agreements then maintained pursuant hereto (other than Excess Hedge Agreements unless pledged pursuant to the Hedge Agreement Pledge substantially in the form of Exhibit G-1 attached hereto) exceeds the Aggregate Notional Amount then required to be hedged pursuant hereto or (ii) the Borrower or Other Swap Pledgor elects, in full compliance with the terms of each Hedge Agreement Pledge, to deliver to the Administrative Agent, in substitution for a Hedge Agreement, a substitute Hedge Agreement, then the Borrower or Other Swap Pledgor shall have the right to do so, and if the Borrower or Other Swap Pledgor is entitled (in the case of either (i) or (ii) above) to receive a termination payment from the counterparty in connection therewith, then, provided that no Event of Default then exists, the Borrower or Other Swap Pledgor shall have the right to receive and retain such termination payment free and clear of the Lien of the Hedge Agreement Pledge, provided, that, after giving effect to any such termination or substitution, the Borrower remains in compliance with its obligations under Section 8.19(a) with respect to the maintenance of Hedge Agreements with respect to the Aggregate Notional Amount then required to be hedged pursuant hereto and has complied (or caused the Other Swap Pledgor to comply) with the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Section 6(e) of the Hedge Agreement Pledge and the certification obligations with respect thereto set forth in the applicable Hedge Agreement Pledge and the Acknowledgment of Security Interest delivered pursuant thereto.  The Borrower or Other Swap Pledgor shall have the right to terminate, reduce the notional amount of or modify any Excess Hedge Agreement and to receive any payments from the counterparty thereunder resulting therefrom, provided that if an Event of Default exists and such Excess Hedge Agreement has been pledged to the Administrative Agent, then the rights and obligations of the Borrower (or Other Swap Pledgor) and the Administrative Agent with respect thereto shall be the same as their respective rights and obligations with respect to Hedge Agreements maintained with respect to the Aggregate Notional Amount.
 
(h)   Upon securing any Hedge Agreement required under this Section 8.19, or any Excess Hedge Agreement pledged to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 8.19(a) the Borrower agrees that the economic and other benefits of such Hedge Agreement and all of the other rights of the Borrower or Other Swap Pledgor thereunder shall be collaterally assigned to the Administrative Agent as additional security for the Loans for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, pursuant to a Hedge Agreement Pledge.  All Hedge Agreement Pledges shall be accompanied by (i) Uniform Commercial Code financing statements, in duplicate, with respect to such pledges and (ii) within ten (10) days after delivery of the applicable Hedge Agreement Pledge (or within such longer period as provided in Section 8.19(a) above), a counterparty’s acknowledgment in the form attached to the Hedge Agreement Pledge applicable thereto (or in such other form as may be acceptable to the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion) from each counterparty under each Hedge Agreement.
 
(i)   Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 8.19(a), following the delivery of any notice of full or partial prepayment delivered by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.06(a) or any notice of a proposed release of a Project pursuant to Section 2.06(c), Borrower’s obligation to maintain, or cause to be maintained, any Hedge Agreement required under Section 8.19(a) shall be suspended with respect to the full Aggregate Notional Amount (in the case of a notice of full prepayment) or the portion of the Aggregate Notional Amount equal to the amount to be prepaid in the case of a partial prepayment or pursuant to Section 2.09(a)(ii) in connection with the release of a Project (in the case of a notice of partial prepayment or notice of the release of a Project), and Borrower or the Other Swap Pledgor may terminate or reduce the notional amount of any Hedge Agreement theretofore entered into with respect to such suspended portion of the Aggregate Notional Amount; provided, however, that if such notice of prepayment or release is subsequently revoked, or if such prepayment or release does not occur on or prior to the date identified in such notice of prepayment or release (as such date may be postponed in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement), then the suspension of such obligation shall terminate, and Borrower shall be obligated to enter into and thereafter maintain, or to cause an Other Swap Pledgor to enter into and thereafter maintain, one or more Hedge Agreements at an agreed upon strike rate and otherwise in full compliance with Section 8.19(a) by not later than the end of a cumulative period during which the Hedge Agreements otherwise required under Section 8.19(a) are not being maintained (with respect to all such notices of prepayment or release in the aggregate) which shall not exceed (60) days in the aggregate.
 
(j)   If any Hedge Agreement delivered by the Borrower or Other Swap Pledgor to the Administrative Agent shall, by its terms, expire during any period in which Borrower remains obligated to maintain a Hedge Agreement in effect pursuant to Section 8.19(a), and as a result thereof the Borrower would not be in compliance with its obligations under Section 8.19(a) with respect to the maintenance of Hedge Agreements covering the Aggregate Notional Amount, then, subject to the provisions of Section 8.19(i), the Borrower shall deliver, or cause an Other Swap Pledgor to deliver, to the Administrative Agent a replacement Hedge Agreement at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the expiration date of the then current Hedge Agreement (so as to remain in compliance with its obligations under Section 8.19(a) with respect to the maintenance of Hedge Agreements) which replacement Hedge Agreement shall be acceptable to the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion and otherwise satisfy the requirements of this Section 8.19.
 
8.20   Reserved.  
 
8.21   Required Work.  The Borrower shall cause the work described on Schedule 8.21 attached hereto to be completed on or before the applicable dates set forth on said schedule.  Such work shall be completed in a good and workmanlike manner, lien-free and in accordance with all Applicable Laws.  The Administrative Agent shall have the right to inspect such work and the reasonable costs of such inspection shall be paid by the Borrower.  In addition, the Borrower acknowledges receipt of the Environmental Reports and the Property Condition Reports and agrees to address in its prudent business judgment the recommendations contained in such reports.

(a)   The Borrower shall promptly give the Administrative Agent notice of any actual Taking or any Taking that has been threatened in writing and shall deliver to the Administrative Agent copies of any and all papers served in connection with such actual or threatened Taking.  The Administrative Agent may participate in any Taking proceedings (not to the exclusion of the Borrower), and the Borrower shall from time to time deliver to the Administrative Agent all instruments requested by it to permit such participation.  The Borrower shall, at its expense, diligently prosecute any such proceedings, and shall consult with the Administrative Agent, its attorneys and experts, and cooperate with them in the carrying on or defense of any such proceedings.  The Administrative Agent may participate in any such proceedings (not to the exclusion of the Borrower) and may be represented therein by counsel of the Administrative Agent’s selection at the Borrower’s cost and expense.  Without the Administrative Agent’s prior consent, the Borrower (i) shall not agree to any Condemnation Award and (ii) shall not take any action or fail to take any action which would cause the Condemnation Award to be determined; provided, however, that if no Event of Default exists, and upon prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall have the right to compromise and collect or receive any Condemnation Award that does not exceed the lesser of (a) $5,000,000 and (b) ten percent (10%) of the Appraised Value of such Project, provided that such condemnation does not result in any material adverse effect upon the Project affected thereby.  In the event of such Taking, the Condemnation Award payable is hereby assigned to and (except as provided in the preceding sentence) shall be paid to the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Lenders) and, except as expressly set forth in Section 10.03 hereof, shall be applied to the repayment of the Obligations.  If any Project or any portion thereof is subject to a Taking, the Borrower shall promptly commence and diligently prosecute the Restoration of such Project in accordance with this Article X and otherwise comply with the provisions of Section 10.03.  If such Project is sold, through foreclosure or otherwise, prior to the receipt by the Administrative Agent of the Condemnation Award, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have the right, whether or not a deficiency judgment on the Notes shall have been sought, recovered or denied, to receive the Condemnation Award, or a portion thereof sufficient to pay the Obligations.
 
10.03   Restoration.
 
(a)   If each of the Net Proceeds and the cost of completing the Restoration shall be not more than the Insurance Threshold Amount, the Net Proceeds will be disbursed by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower upon receipt; provided that no Major Default or Event of Default then exists and, except where the Restoration has already been completed by the Borrower and the Borrower seeks reimbursement for costs of the Restoration, the Borrower delivers to the Administrative Agent a written undertaking to expeditiously commence and to satisfactorily complete with due diligence the Restoration in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; and the Borrower thereafter commences and diligently proceeds with the Restoration thereof in compliance with Section 8.07 and this Article X.
 
(b)   If either the Net Proceeds or the costs of completing the Restoration is equal to or greater than the Insurance Threshold Amount, the Administrative Agent shall make the Net Proceeds available for the Restoration in accordance with the provisions of this Section 10.03.  The term “Net Proceeds” for purposes of this Article X shall mean:  (i) the net amount of all Insurance Proceeds received by the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Policies as a result of such damage or destruction, after deduction of the Administrative Agent’s reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable counsel fees), if any, in collecting same, or (ii) the net amount of the Condemnation Award, after deduction of the Administrative Agent’s reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable counsel fees), if any, in collecting same, whichever the case may be.
 
(c)   The Net Proceeds shall be made available to the Borrower for Restoration; provided that each of the following conditions is met:
 
(i) no Major Default or Event of Default exists;
 
(ii) (A) in the event the Net Proceeds are Insurance Proceeds, less than twenty-five percent (25%) of the total (gross) floor area of the Improvements on such Project has been damaged, destroyed or rendered unusable as a result of such Casualty Event or (B) in the event the Net Proceeds are Condemnation Awards, less than ten percent (10%) of the land constituting such Project is taken, and such land is located along the perimeter or periphery of such Project, and no portion of the Improvements (other than sidewalks, paved areas and decorative non-structural elements of the Improvements) is located on such land;
 
(iii) Reserved;
 
(iv) the Debt Service Coverage Ratio projected (with Operating Income and Operating Expenses also being projected rather than being based on the previous calendar quarter) by the Administrative Agent for a period of one year after the Administrative Agent’s estimated date for the stabilization of the affected Project following completion of the Restoration will be equal to or greater than 1.35-to-1.00 based on Leases with respect to which the tenants do not have the right to or have waived any right to terminate their respective Leases;
 
(v) subject to the applicable provisions of Section 10.03(l), the Borrower shall commence the Restoration as soon as reasonably practicable (but in no event later than ninety (90) days after such Casualty Event or Taking, as the case may be, occurs) and shall diligently pursue the same to completion to the reasonable satisfaction of the Administrative Agent;
 
(vi) the Administrative Agent shall be satisfied that any operating deficits, including all scheduled payments of principal and interest under the Notes, which will be incurred with respect to the subject Project as a result of the occurrence of any such Casualty Event or Taking, as the case may be, will be covered out of (A) the Net Proceeds, (B) the proceeds of Business Interruption Insurance, if applicable, or (C) other funds of the Borrower;
 
(vii) the Administrative Agent shall be satisfied that the Restoration will be completed on or before the earliest to occur of (A) six (6) months prior to the Stated Maturity Date, (B) such time as may be required under Applicable Law in order to repair and restore the subject Project to the condition it was in immediately prior to such Casualty Event or to as nearly as possible the condition it was in immediately prior to such Taking, as the case may be, and (C) six (6) months prior to the expiration of the Business Interruption Insurance unless the Borrower delivers to the Administrative Agent such additional security to the Administrative Agent in an amount reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent which additional security shall consist of cash or a letter of credit reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent;
 
(viii) the subject Project and the use thereof after the Restoration will be in substantial compliance with and permitted under all Applicable Laws;
 
(ix) the Borrower shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Administrative Agent satisfactory evidence that after Restoration, the subject Project would be at least as valuable as immediately before the Casualty Event or Taking occurred;
 
(x) such Casualty Event or Taking, as the case may be, does not result in the permanent loss of any current access to the subject Project;
 
(xi) the Borrower shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Administrative Agent a signed detailed budget approved in writing by the Borrower’s architect or engineer stating the entire cost of completing the Restoration, which budget shall be reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and any architect or engineer the Administrative Agent may engage (at the Borrower’s expense); and
 
(xii) the Net Proceeds together with any cash or cash equivalent deposited by the Borrower with the Administrative Agent are sufficient in the Administrative Agent’s judgment to cover the cost of the Restoration.
 
(d)   Except for proceeds of a Casualty Event or Taking received and retained by the Borrower in compliance with the provisions of this Article X, the Net Proceeds shall be held by the Administrative Agent in a Controlled Account, until disbursed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 10.03, and shall constitute additional security for the Obligations.  Upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent that all the conditions precedent to such advance, including those set forth in subsection (c) above, have been satisfied, the Net Proceeds shall be disbursed by the Administrative Agent to, or as directed by, the Borrower from time to time during the course of the Restoration in substantially the same manner and subject to similar conditions as if such advances were being made in connection with a construction loan, such manner of disbursement and conditions to be determined by the Administrative Agent, including the Administrative Agent’s receipt of (i) advice from the Restoration Consultant (who shall be employed by the Administrative Agent at the Borrower’s sole expense) that the work completed or materials installed conform to said budget and plans, as approved by the Administrative Agent, (ii) evidence that all materials installed and work and labor performed to the date of the applicable advance (except to the extent that they are to be paid for out of the requested disbursement) in connection with the Restoration have been paid for in full, including the receipt of waivers of lien, contractor’s certificates, surveys, receipted bills, releases, title policy endorsements and such other evidences of cost, payment and performance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, and (iii) evidence that there exist no notices of pendency, stop orders, mechanic’s or materialman’s liens or notices of intention to file same, or any other Liens of any nature whatsoever on the subject Project which have not either been fully bonded to the reasonable satisfaction of the Administrative Agent and discharged of record or in the alternative fully insured to the reasonable satisfaction of the Administrative Agent under the Title Policy.
 
(e)   All plans and specifications required in connection with any Restoration resulting in Net Proceeds in excess of the Insurance Threshold Amount shall be subject to prior review and approval (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld) in all respects by the Administrative Agent and by an independent consulting engineer selected by the Administrative Agent (the “Restoration Consultant”).  All plans and specifications required in connection with any Restoration resulting in Net Proceeds not in excess of the Insurance Threshold Amount shall be provided to the Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business.  The Administrative Agent shall have the use of the plans and specifications and all permits, licenses and approvals required or obtained in connection with any Restoration.  With respect to any Restoration resulting in Net Proceeds in excess of the Insurance Threshold Amount (whether resulting from a Casualty Event or a Taking), the identity of the contractors, subcontractors and materialmen engaged in the Restoration, as well as all contracts having a cost in excess of $100,000, shall be subject to the prior review and approval (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld) of the Administrative Agent and the Restoration Consultant.  All costs and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with making the Net Proceeds available for the Restoration including reasonable counsel fees and disbursements and the Restoration Consultant’s fees, shall be paid by the Borrower.  The Borrower shall also obtain, at its sole cost and expense, all necessary Government Approvals as and when required in connection with such Restoration and provide copies thereof to the Administrative Agent and the Restoration Consultant.
 
(f)   In no event shall the 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 the Restoration, as certified by the Restoration Consultant, minus the Restoration Retainage.  The term “Restoration Retainage” shall mean the greater of (i) an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the hard costs actually incurred for work in place as part of the Restoration, as certified by the Restoration Consultant and (ii) the amount actually held back by the Borrower from contractors, subcontractors and materialmen engaged in the Restoration.  The Restoration Retainage shall not be released until the Restoration Consultant certifies to the Administrative Agent that the Restoration has been substantially completed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 10.03, subject to punch-list items and other non-material items of work and that all approvals necessary for the re-occupancy and use of the subject Project have been obtained from all appropriate Governmental Authorities, and the Administrative Agent receives evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent that the costs of the Restoration have been paid in full or will be paid in full out of the Restoration Retainage; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent will release the portion of the Restoration Retainage being held with respect to any contractor, subcontractor or materialman engaged in the Restoration as of the date upon which the Restoration Consultant certifies to the Administrative Agent that such contractor, subcontractor or materialman has satisfactorily completed all work and has supplied all materials in accordance with its contract, and the Administrative Agent receives lien waivers and evidence of payment in full of all sums due to such contractor, subcontractor or materialman as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent or by the Title Company issuing the Title Policy, and the Administrative Agent receives an endorsement to the Title Policy insuring the continued priority of the lien of the Deed of Trust and evidence of payment of any premium payable for such endorsement.  If required by the Administrative Agent, the release of any such portion of the Restoration Retainage shall be approved by the surety company, if any, which has issued a payment or performance bond with respect to such contractor, subcontractor or materialman.
 
(g)   The Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to make disbursements of the Net Proceeds more frequently than once per month.
 
(h)   If at any time the Net Proceeds or the undisbursed balance thereof shall not, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent in consultation with the Restoration Consultant, be sufficient to pay in full the balance of the costs which are estimated by the Restoration Consultant to be incurred in connection with the completion of the Restoration, the Borrower shall deposit the deficiency (the “Net Proceeds Deficiency”) with the Administrative Agent within ten (10) Business Days of the Administrative Agent’s request and before any further disbursement of the Net Proceeds shall be made.  The Net Proceeds Deficiency shall be held in a Controlled Account and shall be disbursed for costs actually incurred in connection with the Restoration on the same conditions applicable to the disbursement of the Net Proceeds, and, until so disbursed, shall constitute additional security for the Obligations.
 
(i)   After the Restoration Consultant certifies to the Administrative Agent that a Restoration has been substantially completed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 10.03, and the receipt by the Administrative Agent of evidence satisfactory to the Administrative Agent that all costs incurred in connection with the Restoration have been paid in full, the excess, if any, of the Net Proceeds and the remaining balance, if any, of the Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited in a Controlled Account shall be remitted to the Borrower, provided that no Event of Default shall exist.
 
(j)   All Net Proceeds not required (i) to be made available for the Restoration or (ii) to be returned to the Borrower as excess Net Proceeds pursuant to subsection (i) above may (A) be retained and applied by the Administrative Agent toward the payment of the Obligations, whether or not then due and payable, in such order, priority and proportions as the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion shall deem proper (but without premium or penalty) or (B) at the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent, be paid, either in whole or in part, to the Borrower for such purposes and upon such conditions as the Administrative Agent shall designate.  In the event the Net Proceeds are applied to the Obligations and all of the Obligations have been performed or are discharged by the application of less than all of the Net Proceeds, then any remaining Net Proceeds will be paid over to the Borrower or any other party legally entitled thereto.
 
(k)   Notwithstanding any Casualty Event or Taking, the Borrower shall continue to pay the Obligations in the manner provided in the Notes, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the Outstanding Principal Amount shall not be reduced unless and until (i) any Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Award shall have been actually received by the Administrative Agent, (ii) the Administrative Agent shall have deducted its reasonable expenses of collecting such proceeds and (iii) the Administrative Agent shall have applied any portion of the balance thereof to the repayment of the Outstanding Principal Amount in accordance with Section 10.03(j); provided, however, that in the event there is a Significant Casualty Event or Taking of a Project any Unused Commitments remaining allocable to such Project shall be reduced in proportion to the amount of the Project taken or destroyed, as determined by the Administrative Agent, and provided, further, that, during the period of Restoration of a Project in accordance with this Section 10.03, the rights of the Borrower under Section 2.11 to obtain a Subsequent Funding Advance with respect to such Project shall be suspended until such time as the Restoration has been completed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 10.03.  The Lenders shall not be limited to the interest paid on any Condemnation Award but shall continue to be entitled to receive interest at the rate or rates provided in the Notes and this Agreement if such interest is then due hereunder.
 
(l)   Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article X or Section 8.07, if pursuant to the provisions of this Article X the Net Proceeds are required to be made available to the Borrower for Restoration of the damage caused by a Casualty Event or any Taking, the Borrower’s obligation to commence or thereafter to proceed with such Restoration shall be conditioned upon the Borrower’s receipt of the Net Proceeds attributable to such Casualty Event or Taking, respectively; provided, however, that nothing contained in this sentence (or any other provision of this Article X) shall (i) defer, limit or excuse in any respect the Borrower’s obligation to commence or proceed with the Restoration of any Project: (A) if the Borrower does not diligently pursue the collection of such Net Proceeds; (B) where the relevant Casualty Event is not a Significant Casualty Event or the Taking involves a claim of not more than the lesser of $5,000,000 or ten percent (10%) of the Appraised Value of the affected Project; (C) in the case of a Casualty Event, to the extent that the costs of such Restoration are included within any applicable deductible or self-insurance retention, or exceed the applicable limits of insurance, under any insurance policy maintained hereunder; (D) in the case of a Casualty Event, if the Borrower is, at the time of such Casualty Event, in default in its obligation to maintain the insurance policies required under Section 8.05 in any respect which would reduce the amount of Net Proceeds available to the Borrower on account of such Casualty Event below the amount which would have been available had the Borrower not been in default of such obligation, then to the extent of such reduction; or (E) to the extent that the Net Proceeds available to the Borrower on account of such Casualty Event or Taking are reasonably anticipated to be reduced as a result of any defense to coverage or other defense available to the insurer or condemning authority, whether as a result of any act or omission of the Borrower or otherwise (provided that the undisputed portion of such Net Proceeds shall have been paid by the insurer or condemning authority and made available to the Borrower); (ii) defer, limit or excuse in any respect the Borrower’s obligation to undertake such prudent measures (subject in all cases to any applicable provisions in Section 8.07) as may be necessary to keep any Project, following any Casualty Event or Taking, safe, secure and protected and as may be appropriate to avoid further deterioration or damage; or (iii) defer, limit or excuse any obligation of the Borrower under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (other than the obligation to commence and diligently prosecute the Restoration of such damage).
 
 
ARTICLE XI                                
 
CASH TRAP ACCOUNT
 
11.01   Low DSCR Trigger Event.  Upon the occurrence of a Low DSCR Trigger Event and on each day that the required monthly report is due under Section 8.01(e) and continuing for each month thereafter during any Low DSCR Trigger Period, the Borrower shall cause all Excess Cash from the Projects to be paid each month directly to the Administrative Agent for deposit into a Cash Trap Account established for the Borrower as additional collateral for its Obligations.  
 
(a)           Establishment and Maintenance of the Cash Trap Account.
 
(i) The Cash Trap Account (A) shall be a separate and identifiable account from all other funds held by the Depository Bank and (B) shall contain only funds required to be deposited pursuant to this Section 11.01.  Any interest which may accrue on the amounts on deposit in a Cash Trap Account shall be added to and shall become part of the balance of the Cash Trap Account.  The Borrower shall enter into with the Administrative Agent and the applicable Depository Bank a Cash Trap Account Security Agreement (with such changes thereto as may be required by the Depository Bank and satisfactory to the Administrative Agent) which shall govern the Cash Trap Account established for it and the rights, duties and obligations of each party to such Cash Trap Account Security Agreement.
 
(ii) The Cash Trap Account Security Agreement shall provide that (A) the Cash Trap Account shall be established in the name of the Administrative Agent, (B) the Cash Trap Account shall be subject to the sole dominion, control and discretion of the Administrative Agent, and (C) neither the Borrower nor any other Person, including, without limitation, any Person claiming on behalf of or through the Borrower, shall have any right or authority, whether express or implied, to make use of or withdraw, or cause the use or withdrawal of, any proceeds from the Cash Trap Account or any of the other proceeds deposited in the Cash Trap Account, except as expressly provided in this Agreement or in the Cash Trap Account Security Agreement.
 
(b)   Deposits to, Disbursements and Release from the Cash Trap Account.  All deposits to and disbursements of all or any portion of the deposits to the Cash Trap Account shall be in accordance with this Agreement and the Cash Trap Account Security Agreement.  The Borrower hereby agrees to pay any and all fees charged by Depository Bank in connection with the maintenance of the Cash Trap Account and the performance of its duties.  During any Low DSCR Trigger Period, provided that no Event of Default exists at the time of any request by the Borrower for a disbursement from the Cash Trap Account, the Administrative Agent will direct the Depository Bank to transfer amounts credited to the Cash Trap Account to the Borrower’s Account to pay or reimburse the Borrower for (i) Real Estate Taxes or Insurance Premiums, (ii) capital expenditures incurred pursuant to an Approved Annual Budget (such capital expenditures, “Approved Capital Expenditures”), (iii) actual costs of tenant improvements and/or leasing commissions pursuant to an Approved Lease and set forth in an Approved Annual Budget (such expenditures, “Approved Leasing Expenditures”), or (iv) capital expenditures which have been approved by the Administrative Agent in accordance with subsection (c)(iv) below or leasing expenditures incurred pursuant to an Approved Lease, in either case which are not set forth in an Approved Annual Budget (such expenditures, “Extraordinary Capital or Leasing Expenditures”), in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth below in subsection (c).  Provided no Default or Event of Default then exists, any funds held in the Cash Trap Account shall be released to the Borrower for the account of the Borrower upon the occurrence of a Low DSCR Release Event and, in such event the Borrower shall no longer be required to cause the deposit of the subsequent Excess Cash into the Cash Trap Account unless a Low DSCR Trigger Event occurs with respect to any future calendar quarter.
 
(c)   Conditions to Disbursements from Cash Trap Account.  Each disbursement from a Cash Trap Account is subject to the satisfaction of each of the following conditions:
 
(i)           Disbursements shall be utilized solely for Real Estate Taxes, Insurance Premiums, Approved Capital Expenditures, Approved Leasing Expenditures or Extraordinary Capital or Leasing Expenditures and shall be in an amount no greater than the actual cost of such Real Estate Taxes or Insurance Premiums, Approved Capital Expenditures, Approved Leasing Expenditures or Extraordinary Capital or Leasing Expenditures to the extent not theretofore paid from Operating Income;
 
(ii)           Disbursements for Approved Capital Expenditures, Approved Leasing Expenditures and Extraordinary Capital or Leasing Expenditures shall not be made more frequently than monthly, and each disbursement (if any) shall be in an amount not less than $25,000.00 (unless the disbursement represents the final disbursement for a particular Approved Capital Expenditure or Approved Leasing Expenditure);
 
(iii)           Not less than ten (10) days prior to the requested funding date for a disbursement, the Administrative Agent shall have received a written request for such disbursement executed by an Authorized Officer on behalf of the Borrower, which request shall specify the date on which the Borrower requests the disbursement to be made and the Person(s) or account(s) to whom such disbursement should be made (such duly completed request is referred to herein as a “Disbursement Request”);
 
(iv)           Not less than ten (10) days prior to each disbursement for Approved Capital Expenditures, Approved Leasing Expenditures or Extraordinary Capital or Leasing Expenditures, the Administrative Agent shall have received, reviewed and approved (A) a certificate executed by the Borrower, or, if such Person was engaged for such work, the Borrower’s architect or engineer, as applicable, certifying that, to the knowledge of such Person, the work for which such disbursement is being requested has been completed to the percentage of completion specified in the Disbursement Request substantially in accordance with the applicable plans and specifications therefor and in a good and workmanlike manner; (B) sworn statements and conditional lien waivers from all contractors, subcontractors and materialmen with respect to such work; (C) sworn statements and final lien waivers from all contractors and subcontractors and materialmen with respect to work theretofore completed and for which a disbursement was made to the Borrower in a prior month; (D) copies of paid invoices for prior disbursements and open invoices for requested disbursements, and an all bills paid affidavit from the Borrower; (E) with respect to the final payment for a work of improvement, certificates of occupancy (or similar documentation), as required by Applicable Law, relating to the work for which such disbursement is being made; and (F) such other supporting documentation as may be reasonably required by the Administrative Agent, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in lieu of complying with the requirements in clauses (A) through (F) above with respect to any requested disbursement for Approved Capital Expenditures, Approved Leasing Expenditures or Extraordinary Capital or Leasing Expenditures which consists of leasing commissions or sums due pursuant to any contract or subcontract providing for an aggregate contract sum of not more than $50,000, the Borrower may, not less than ten (10) days prior to the requested funding date for any disbursement on account thereof, deliver to the Administrative Agent, together with (or as part of) its Disbursement Request, a certificate executed by an Authorized Officer on behalf of the Borrower certifying that such sums so requested are due and payable and are Approved Capital Expenditures, Approved Leasing Expenditures or Extraordinary Capital or Leasing Expenditures which have been incurred in compliance with this Agreement and containing copies of the relevant invoices, contracts or other back-up documentation to confirm that such sums are then owing; and
 
(v)           Based on the most recent reconciliation report delivered by the Borrower pursuant to Section 8.01(e)(iii) prior to the delivery of such Disbursement Request (or, if the most recent such report has not been delivered pursuant to such section or article, based on such other information as the Administrative Agent shall determine in its reasonable discretion), the results from the operations of the Projects for the month and year-to-date covered by such reconciliation report shall be equal to or better than the results contemplated by the Approved Annual Budget for such month and year-to-date, except for Extraordinary Capital or Leasing Expenditures or other expenses or items approved by the Administrative Agent.

(k)   The Liens created by the Security Documents shall at any time not constitute a valid and perfected first priority Lien (subject to the Permitted Title Exceptions) on the collateral intended to be covered thereby in favor of the Administrative Agent, free and clear of all other Liens (other than the Permitted Title Exceptions and Liens which are described in clauses (b), (c), (e) and (g) of the definition of “Permitted Liens” or which are described in clauses (a), (b), (c), (e) and (h) of Section 9.02 of this Agreement, and which are in the case of Liens described in clause (e) of the definition of “Permitted Liens” and Section 9.02 (e) of this Agreement subordinate to the Lien of the Deed of Trust encumbering the affected Project), or, except for expiration in accordance with its terms or releases or terminations contemplated by this Agreement, any of the Security Documents shall for whatever reason be terminated or cease to be in full force and effect, or the enforceability thereof shall be contested by any Borrower Party or any of their Affiliates (controlled by the REIT); or
 
(l)   The Guarantor shall (i) default under any of the Guarantor Documents beyond any applicable notice and grace period; or (ii) revoke or attempt to revoke, contest or commence any action against its obligations under any of the Guarantor Documents; or
 
(m)   At any time while a Guarantee furnished by the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower is in effect with respect to any Guaranteed Line of Credit, any event of default shall occur under any of the applicable documents evidencing or securing such Guaranteed Line of Credit and such event of default shall be continuing following the expiration of applicable notice and cure periods thereunder; or any event specified in any of the applicable documents evidencing or securing such Guaranteed Line of Credit shall occur and the effect of such event is to cause, or (with the giving of any notice or the lapse of time or both) to permit the lenders providing such Guaranteed Line of Credit to cause, all amounts outstanding under Guaranteed Line of Credit to become immediately due and payable prior to the stated maturity date; provided, however, that the foregoing provisions shall not apply if the obligations under the applicable Guarantee thereof furnished by the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower in conformity with Section 9.04(h) of this Agreement are secured, in compliance with Section 9.02(k) of this Agreement, exclusively by Liens on one or more Excluded Projects or other real estate, and the obligations under such Guarantee are non-recourse to the Borrower and its Subsidiaries (except for “carve-outs” for the Borrower’s or such Subsidiary’s fraud, misrepresentation, misappropriation and other exceptions-from-non-recourse with respect to the acts of such Borrower or Subsidiary customary in the real estate finance industry); or
 
(n)   At any time the REIT fails to satisfy the requirements of being a real estate investment trust as defined in the Code if such failure could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect;
 
(o)   The Borrower uses, or permits the use of, funds from the Security Accounts for any purpose other than the purpose for which such funds were disbursed from the Security Accounts; or
 
(p)   Except as permitted by Section 8.19(i), the failure of Borrower to maintain, or cause to be maintained, Hedge Agreements with respect to the Aggregate Notional Amount in accordance with Section 8.19; or the occurrence of any default by or termination event as to the Borrower or Other Swap Pledgor under any Hedge Agreement maintained with respect to the Aggregate Notional Amount which is not cured within the applicable notice and grace or cure periods provided therein; or
 
(q)   Reserved;
 
(r)   Any of the Borrower Parties shall default under any of the other terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document not set forth above in this Section 12.01 and such default shall continue for thirty (30) days after notice from the Administrative Agent to the Borrower; provided, however, that if (i) such default is susceptible of cure but the Administrative Agent reasonably determines that such non-monetary default cannot be reasonably cured within such thirty (30) day period, (ii) the Administrative Agent determines, in its sole discretion, that such default does not create a material risk of sale or forfeiture of, or substantial impairment in value to, any material portion of the Projects, and (iii) the Borrower has provided the Administrative Agent with security reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent against any interruption of payment or impairment of collateral that is reasonably likely to result from such continuing failure, then, so long as the relevant Borrower Party shall have commenced to cure such default within such thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently and expeditiously proceeds to cure the same, such thirty (30) day period shall be extended for such time as is reasonably necessary for the relevant Borrower Party in the exercise of due diligence to cure such default, but in no event shall such period exceed ninety (90) days after the original notice from the Administrative Agent or extend beyond the Maturity Date; or
 
(s)   Reserved.
 
12.02   Remedies.  Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and at any time thereafter during the existence of such event, the Administrative Agent may (subject to, and in accordance with, the provisions of Section 13.03) and, upon request of the Required Lenders shall, by written notice to the Borrower, pursue any one or more of the following remedies, concurrently or successively, it being the intent hereof that none of such remedies shall be to the exclusion of any other:
 
(a)   In the case of an Event of Default other than one referred to in clause (e) or (f) of Section 12.01 with respect to any Bankruptcy Party, terminate the Commitments and/or declare the Outstanding Principal Amount of the Loans, and the accrued interest on the Loans and all other amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder (including any amounts payable under Section 5.05) and under the Notes and the Obligations of the Borrower under the other Loan Documents to be forthwith due and payable and, if the Administrative Agent or an Affiliate is a counterparty to a Hedge Agreement, then the Administrative Agent may designate a default or similar event under such Hedge Agreement whereupon such amounts shall be immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or other formalities of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower.  In the case of the occurrence of an Event of Default referred to in clause (e) or (f) of Section 12.01 with respect to a Bankruptcy Party, the Commitments shall automatically be terminated and the Outstanding Principal Amount of the Loans, and the accrued interest on, the Loans and all other amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder (including any amounts payable under Section 5.05) and under the Notes and the Obligations of the Borrower under the other Loan Documents shall automatically become immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or other formalities of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower;
 
(b)   If the Borrower shall fail, refuse or neglect to make any payment or perform any Obligations under the Loan Documents, then, while any Event of Default exists and without notice to or demand upon the Borrower and without waiving or releasing any other right, remedy or recourse the Administrative Agent may have because of such Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) make such payment or perform such Obligation for the account of and at the expense of the Borrower, and shall have the right to enter upon the Projects for such purpose and to take all such action thereon and with respect to the Projects as it may deem necessary or appropriate.  If the Administrative Agent shall elect to pay any sum due with respect to the Projects, the Administrative Agent may do so in reliance on any bill, statement or assessment procured from the appropriate Governmental Authority or other issuer thereof without inquiring into the accuracy or validity thereof.  Similarly, in making any payments to protect the security intended to be created by the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not be bound to inquire into the validity of any apparent or threatened adverse title, Lien, encumbrance, claim or charge before making an advance for the purpose of preventing or removing the same.  Additionally, if any Hazardous Substance affects or threatens to affect any of the Projects, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) give such notices and take such actions as it deems necessary or advisable in order to abate the discharge of or remove any Hazardous Substance; and/or
 
(c)   Exercise or pursue any other remedy or cause of action permitted under this Agreement, any or all of the Security Documents or any other Loan Document, or conferred upon the Administrative Agent and the Lenders by operation of law.
 
 
ARTICLE XIII                                
 
THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT
 
13.01   Appointment, Powers and Immunities.  Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to act as its agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents with such powers as are specifically delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of this Agreement and of the other Loan Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.  The Administrative Agent (which term as used in this sentence and in Section 13.05 and the first sentence of Section 13.06 shall include reference to its Affiliates and its own and its Affiliates’ officers, directors, employees and agents):
 
(a)   shall have no duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Agreement and in the other Loan Documents, and shall not by reason of this Agreement or any other Loan Document be a fiduciary or trustee for any Lender except to the extent that the Administrative Agent acts as an agent with respect to the receipt or payment of funds, nor shall the Administrative Agent have any fiduciary duty to the Borrower nor shall any Lender have any fiduciary duty to the Borrower or any other Lender;
 
(b)   shall not be responsible to the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, or in any certificate or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by any of them under, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement, any Note or any other Loan Document or any other document referred to or provided for herein or therein or for any failure by the Borrower or any other Person to perform any of its obligations hereunder or thereunder;
 
(c)   shall not be responsible for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it hereunder or under any other Loan Document or under any other document or instrument referred to or provided for herein or therein or in connection herewith or therewith, except for its own gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct;
 
(d)   shall not, except to the extent expressly instructed by the Required Lenders with respect to collateral security under the Security Documents, be required to initiate or conduct any litigation or collection proceedings hereunder or under any other Loan Document; and
 
(e)   shall not be required to take any action which is contrary to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or Applicable Law.
 
The relationship between the Administrative Agent and each Lender is a contractual relationship only, and nothing herein shall be deemed to impose on the Administrative Agent any obligations other than those for which express provision is made herein or in the other Loan Documents.  The Administrative Agent may employ agents and attorneys-in-fact and shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it in good faith.  The Administrative Agent may deem and treat the payee of a Note as the holder thereof for all purposes hereof unless and until a notice of the assignment or transfer thereof shall have been filed with the Administrative Agent, any such assignment or transfer to be subject to the provisions of Section 14.07.  Except to the extent expressly provided in Sections 13.08 and 13.10, the provisions of this Article XIII are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and the Borrower shall not have any rights as a third-party beneficiary of any of the provisions hereof and the Lenders may Modify or waive such provisions of this Article XIII in their sole and absolute discretion.
 
13.02   Reliance by Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any certification, notice, document or other communication (including any thereof by telephone, telecopy, telegram or cable) reasonably believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by or on behalf of the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel, independent accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent in good faith.  As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the 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 the Required Lenders, and such instructions of the Required Lenders and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding on all of the Lenders.
 
13.03   Defaults.
 
(a)   The Administrative Agent shall give the Lenders notice of any material Default of which the Administrative Agent has knowledge or notice.  Except with respect to (i) the nonpayment of principal, interest or any fees that are due and payable under any of the Loan Documents, (ii) Defaults with respect to which the Administrative Agent has actually sent written notice of to the Borrower and (iii) material Defaults with respect to which the Administrative Agent is given written notice (or copied on such written notice) from a third party specifying such Default, the Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of a Default unless the Administrative Agent has received notice from a Lender or the Borrower specifying such Default and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default”.  If the Administrative Agent has such knowledge or receives such a notice from the Borrower or a Lender in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence with respect to the occurrence of a material Default, the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders.  Within ten (10) days of delivery of such notice of Default from the Administrative Agent to the Lenders (or such shorter period of time as the Administrative Agent determines is necessary), the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall consult with each other to determine a proposed course of action.  The Lenders agree that the Administrative Agent shall (subject to Section 13.07) take such action with respect to such Default as shall be directed by the Required Lenders, provided that, (A) unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent may while a Default exists (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, including decisions (1) to make protective advances that the Administrative Agent determines are necessary to protect or maintain the Projects and (2) to foreclose on any of the Projects or exercise any other remedy, with respect to such Default as it shall deem advisable in the interest of the Lenders and (B) no actions approved by the Required Lenders shall violate the Loan Documents or Applicable Law.  Each of the Lenders acknowledges and agrees that no individual Lender may separately enforce or exercise any of the provisions of any of the Loan Documents (including the Notes) other than through the Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of all material actions which the Administrative Agent takes in accordance with the provisions of this Section 13.03(a) and shall continue to consult with the Lenders with respect to all of such actions.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Required Lenders shall at any time direct that a different or additional remedial action be taken from that already undertaken by the Administrative Agent, including the commencement of foreclosure proceedings, such different or additional remedial action shall be taken in lieu of or in addition to, the prosecution of such action taken by the Administrative Agent; provided that all actions already taken by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 13.03(a) shall be valid and binding on each Lender.  All money (other than money subject to the provisions of Section 13.03(f)) received from any enforcement actions, including the proceeds of a foreclosure sale of the Projects, shall be applied, first, to the payment or reimbursement of the Administrative Agent for expenses and advances incurred in accordance with the provisions of Sections 13.03(a) and (d) and 13.05 and to the payment of any fees owing to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Loan Documents, second, to the payment or reimbursement of the Lenders for expenses incurred in accordance with the provisions of Sections 13.03(b), (c) and (d) and 13.05; third, to the payment or reimbursement of the Lenders for any advances made pursuant to Section 13.03(b); fourth, pari passu to the Lenders in accordance with their respective Proportionate Shares until the Obligations have been fully paid and discharged in full; and fifth to the person(s) legally entitled thereto.
 
(b)   All losses with respect to interest (including interest at the Post-Default Rate) and other sums payable pursuant to the Notes or incurred in connection with the Loans, the enforcement thereof or the realization of the security therefor, shall be borne by the Lenders in accordance with their respective Proportionate Shares of the Loan, and the Lenders shall promptly, upon request, remit to the Administrative Agent their respective Proportionate Shares of (i) any expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Default to the extent any expenses have not been paid by the Borrower, (ii) any advances made to pay taxes or insurance or otherwise to preserve the Lien of the Security Documents or to preserve and protect the Projects, whether or not the amount necessary to be advanced for such purposes exceeds the amount of the Obligations,  (iii) any other expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement of the Deeds of Trust or other Loan Documents, and (iv) any expenses incurred in connection with the consummation of the Loans not paid or provided for by the Borrower.  To the extent any such advances are recovered in connection with the enforcement of the Deeds of Trust or the other Loan Documents, each Lender shall be paid its Proportionate Share of such recovery after deduction of the expenses of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders.
 
(c)   If, at the direction of the Required Lenders or otherwise as provided in Section 13.03(a), any action(s) is brought to collect on the Notes or enforce the Security Documents or any other Loan Document, such action shall (to the extent permitted under applicable law and the decisions of the court in which such action is brought) be an action brought by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, collectively, to collect on all or a portion of the Notes or enforce the Security Documents or any other Loan Document and counsel selected by the Administrative Agent shall prosecute any such action at the direction of the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall consult and cooperate with each other in the prosecution thereof.  All decisions concerning the appointment of a receiver while such action is pending, the conduct of such receivership, the conduct of such action, the collection of any judgment entered in such action and the settlement of such action shall be made by the Administrative Agent.  The costs and expenses of any such action shall be borne by the Lenders in accordance with each of their respective Proportionate Shares (without diminishing or releasing any obligation of the Borrower to pay for such costs).
 
(d)   If, at the direction of the Required Lenders or otherwise as provided in Section 13.03(a), any action(s) is brought to foreclose any Deed of Trust, such action shall (to the extent permitted under applicable law and the decisions of the court in which such action is brought) be an action brought by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, collectively, to foreclose all or a portion of the Deed of Trust and collect on the Notes.  Counsel selected by the Administrative Agent shall prosecute any such foreclosure at the direction of the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall consult and cooperate with each other in the prosecution thereof.  All decisions concerning the appointment of a receiver, the conduct of such foreclosure, the manner of taking and holding title to any such Project (other than as set forth in subsection (e) below), and the commencement and conduct of any deficiency judgment proceeding shall be made by the Administrative Agent (subject to the rights of the Required Lenders under Section 13.03(a)), and all decisions concerning the acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure and the bid on behalf of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders at the foreclosure sale of any Project shall be made by the Administrative Agent with the approval of the Required Lenders.  The costs and expenses of foreclosure will be borne by the Lenders in accordance with their respective Proportionate Shares.
 
(e)   If title is acquired to any Project after a foreclosure sale, nonjudicial foreclosure or by a deed in lieu of foreclosure, title shall be held by the Administrative Agent in its own name in trust for the Lenders or, at the Administrative Agent’s election, in the name of a wholly owned subsidiary of the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders.
 
(f)   If the Administrative Agent (or its subsidiary) acquires title to any Project or is entitled to possession of any Project during or after the foreclosure, all material decisions with respect to the possession, ownership, development, construction, control, operation, leasing, management and sale of such Project shall be made by the Administrative Agent; provided, however, that, prior to consummating a sale of any Project, the Administrative Agent shall obtain the consent of the Required Lenders to the price and other material economic terms upon which such Project shall be sold.  All income or other money received after so acquiring title to or taking possession of such Project with respect to the Project, including income from the operation and management of such Project and the proceeds of a sale of such Project, shall be applied, first, to the payment or reimbursement of the Administrative Agent and the expenses incurred in accordance with the provisions of this Article XIII and to the payment of any fees owed to the Administrative Agent; second, to the payment of operating expenses with respect to such Project; third, to the establishment of reasonable reserves for the operation of such Project; fourth, to the payment or reimbursement of the Lenders for any advances made pursuant to Section 13.03(b); fifth to fund any capital improvement, leasing and other reserves; and sixth, to the Lenders in accordance with their respective Proportionate Shares.
 
13.04   Rights as a Lender.  With respect to its Commitment and the Loans made by it, Eurohypo (and any successor acting as Administrative Agent) in its capacity as a Lender hereunder shall have the same rights and powers hereunder as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not acting as the Administrative Agent, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless the context otherwise indicates, include the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity.  Subject to the provisions of Sections 4.07 and 14.10, Eurohypo (and any successor acting as Administrative Agent) and any of its Affiliates may (without having to account therefor to any other Lender) accept deposits from, lend money to, make investments in and generally engage in any kind of banking, investment banking, trust or other business with the Borrower (and any of its Affiliates) as if it were not acting as the Administrative Agent and Eurohypo (and any such successor) and any of its Affiliates may accept fees and other consideration from the Borrower for services in connection with this Agreement or otherwise without having to account for the same to the Lenders.  
 
13.05   Indemnification.  Each Lender agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower, but without limiting the obligations of the Borrower under Section 14.03) in accordance with their Proportionate Shares, for any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind and nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in its capacity as Administrative Agent (including by any Lender) arising out of or by reason of any investigation in or in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any other documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the Transactions (including the costs and expenses that the Borrower is obligated to pay under Section 14.03, but excluding, unless a Default has occurred and is continuing, normal administrative costs and expenses incident to the performance of its agency duties hereunder) or the enforcement of any of the terms hereof or thereof, provided that no Lender shall be liable for any of the foregoing to the extent they arise from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent.
 
13.06   Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders.  Each Lender agrees that it has, independently and without reliance on the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis of the Borrower and its decision to enter into this Agreement and that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own analysis and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document.  The Administrative Agent shall not be required to keep itself informed as to the performance or observance by the Borrower of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or any other document referred to or provided for herein or therein or to inspect the Properties or books of the Borrower.  Except for notices, reports and other documents and information expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the affairs, financial condition or business of the Borrower (or any of its Affiliates) that may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates.
 
13.07   Failure to Act.  Except for action expressly required of the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully justified in failing or refusing to act hereunder and thereunder unless it shall receive further assurances to its satisfaction from the Lenders of their indemnification obligations under Section 13.05 against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action, subject to the limitations on such obligations contained in such Section 13.05.
 
13.08   Resignation of Administrative Agent.  It is agreed by the Lenders that subject to the terms of this Loan Agreement, the Administrative Agent will remain the Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents throughout the term of the Loans; provided, however, that (a) the Administrative Agent may assign all its rights as the Administrative Agent to any Related Entity of Eurohypo, and such Related Entity shall assume the obligations of Administrative Agent hereunder arising after the date of such assignment, (b) subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Administrative Agent as provided below, the Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower and (c) the Administrative Agent may be removed upon the unanimous consent of the Lenders (excepting therefrom the Administrative Agent in its capacity as a Lender) on account of the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent.  Upon any such resignation or removal, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent that shall be a Person that, provided that no Event of Default then exists, meets the qualifications of an Eligible Assignee with an office in the United States through which it will act as the servicer of the Loans; who is knowledgeable and experienced in servicing real estate secured syndicated commercial loans in the United States; who (together with its Affiliates and Related Entities and any Approved Funds managed by it or by any of its Affiliates or Related Entities) then holds or, at the time it becomes successor Administrative Agent hereunder will hold (and agrees in writing for the benefit of the Borrower to maintain, for so long as it shall remain the Administrative Agent and provided that no Event of Default has occurred), minimum Loans and Commitments in an aggregate principal amount not less than ten percent (10%) of the aggregate Outstanding Principal Amount of the Loans plus any Unused Commitments; and who agrees in writing for the benefit of the Borrower not to resign except in accordance with the provisions of this Loan Agreement.  If such successor Administrative Agent is not a Lender (or is a Lender, but such Lender does not comply with the requirements of the second sentence of this Section 13.08), as long as no Major Default exists, the Borrower shall have the right to approve such successor Administrative Agent, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed and which consent shall be deemed to have been given unless written notice of disapproval is delivered by the Borrower to the resigning Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days after notice of such proposed successor Administrative Agent has been delivered to the Borrower.  If, in the case of a resignation by the Administrative Agent, no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent’s giving of notice of resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, that shall be a Person that meets the requirements of the second sentence of this Section 13.08.  If any successor Administrative Agent is not a Lender (or is a Lender, but such Lender does not comply with the requirements of the second sentence of this Section 13.08), the Borrower, as long as no Major Default exists, shall have the right to approve such successor Administrative Agent, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed and which consent shall be deemed to have been given unless, in the case of a resignation, written notice of disapproval is delivered by the Borrower to the resigning Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days after notice of such proposed successor Administrative Agent has been delivered to the Borrower.  Upon the acceptance of any appointment as the Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and such successor Administrative Agent shall assume all obligations of the Administrative Agent hereunder arising after the date of such acceptance, and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder; provided, however, that the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall not be discharged from any liabilities which existed prior to the effective date of such resignation.  The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor.  After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as the Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article XIII shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as the Administrative Agent.
 
13.09   Consents under Loan Documents.  Subject to the provisions of Section 14.05, the Administrative Agent may (a) grant any consent or approval required of it or (b) consent to any Modification or waiver under any of the Loan Documents.  If the Administrative Agent solicits any consents or approvals from the Lenders under any of the Loan Documents, each Lender shall within ten (10) Business Days of receiving such request, give the Administrative Agent written notice of its consent or approval or denial thereof; provided that, if any Lender does not respond within such ten (10) Business Days or within any such shorter period as required in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, such Lender shall be deemed to have authorized the Administrative Agent to vote such Lender’s interest with respect to the matter which was the subject of the Administrative Agent’s solicitation as the Administrative Agent elects.  Any such solicitation by the Administrative Agent for a consent or approval shall be in writing and shall include a description of the matter or thing as to which such consent or approval is requested and shall include the Administrative Agent’s recommended course of action or determination in respect thereof.
 
13.10   Authorization.  The Administrative Agent is hereby authorized by the Lenders to execute, deliver and perform in accordance with the terms of each of the Loan Documents to which the Administrative Agent is or is intended to be a party and each Lender agrees to be bound by all of the agreements of the Administrative Agent contained in such Loan Documents.  The Borrower shall be entitled to rely on all written agreements, approvals and consents received from the Administrative Agent as being that also of the Lenders, without obtaining separate acknowledgment or proof of authorization of same.
 
13.11   Amendments Concerning Agency Function.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall not be bound by any waiver, amendment, supplement or Modification of this Agreement or any other Loan Document which affects its duties, rights and/or functions hereunder or thereunder unless it shall have given its prior written consent thereto.
 
13.12   Liability of the Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent shall not have any liabilities or responsibilities to the Borrower on account of the failure of any Lender (other than the Administrative Agent in its capacity as a Lender) to perform its obligations hereunder or to any Lender on account of the failure of the Borrower to perform its obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document.
 
13.13   Transfer of Agency Function.  Without the consent of the Borrower or any Lender, the Administrative Agent may at any time or from time to time transfer its functions as the Administrative Agent hereunder to any of its offices wherever located in the United States; provided that the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders thereof.
 
13.14   Documentation Agents.  No Lender identified on the cover page of or elsewhere in this Agreement as a “Documentation Agent” shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement other than those applicable to a Lender having that Lender’s Commitment under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

(i) Subject to the conditions set forth in subsection (b)(ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent of:

(B) the Administrative Agent, whose consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment of all or a portion of any Commitment or Loans to an assignee that is a Lender with a Commitment immediately prior to giving effect to such assignment or an Affiliate of the assigning Lender if also an Eligible Assignee.

(c)   Participations.
 
(i) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other financial institutions (including, without limitation, life insurance companies), or an Affiliate of the Lender that is engaged in making, purchasing, holding or investing in bank loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business (and which is not engaged in the business of acquiring direct or indirect ownership interests in commercial real estate projects) (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.  Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to approve any Modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of such Participant, agree to (1) increase or extend the term of such Lender’s Commitment to the extent that it affects such Participant, (2) extend the date fixed for the payment of principal of or interest on the related Loan or Loans, (3) reduce the amount of any such payment of principal or (4) reduce the rate at which interest is payable thereon to a level below the rate at which the Participant is entitled to receive such interest.  Subject to subsection (c)(ii) of this Section 14.07, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 5.01, 5.05 and 5.06 to the same extent, but subject to the same limitations, conditions and duties set forth in such sections, as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section 14.07.  To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 14.10 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 14.10 as though it were a Lender.
 
(ii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 5.01 or 5.06 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent.  A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 5.06 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees in writing, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 5.06 as though it were a Lender.

(f)   No Assignments to the Borrower or Affiliates.  Anything in this Section 14.07 or Section 14.27 to the contrary notwithstanding, each Lender agrees for itself that it shall not assign or participate any interest in any Loan held by it hereunder to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates without the prior consent of each Lender.
 
14.08   Survival.  The obligations of the Borrower under Sections 3.02(e), 5.01, 5.05, 5.06, 14.03, 14.04 and 14.12, and the obligations of the Lenders under Sections 13.05, shall survive the repayment of the Obligations, the termination of the Commitments and, as to any Project, the release of that Project as collateral for the Loans in accordance with Section 2.09 of this Agreement, and in addition, in the case of any Lender that may assign any interest under the Loan Documents in accordance with the terms thereof including any Lender’s interest in its Commitment or Loan hereunder, shall survive the making of such assignment, notwithstanding that such assigning Lender may cease to be a “Lender” hereunder.  In addition, each representation and warranty made herein or pursuant hereto by the Borrower shall survive the making of such representation and warranty, and no Lender shall be deemed to have waived, by reason of making any Loan, any Default that may arise by reason of such representation or warranty proving to have been false or misleading, notwithstanding that such Lender or the Administrative Agent may have had notice or knowledge or reason to believe that such representation or warranty was false or misleading at the time such Loan was made.
 
14.09   Reserved.  
 
14.10   Right of Set-off.
 
(a)   Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, each of the Lenders is, subject (as between the Lenders) to the provisions of subsection (c) of this Section 14.10, hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, without notice to the Borrower (any such notice being expressly waived by the Borrower) and to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set-off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held, and other indebtedness at any time owing, by such Lender in any of its offices, in Dollars or in any other currency, to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any and all of the respective obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing under the Loan Documents, irrespective of whether or not such Lender or any other Lender shall have made any demand hereunder and although such obligations may be contingent or unmatured and such deposits or indebtedness may be unmatured.  Each Lender and the Administrative Agent acknowledges that it is aware of the implications of the anti-deficiency laws and “one form of action” laws of various jurisdictions in which the Collateral may be located.  These laws, in general, restrict or prohibit the exercise of remedies under loans secured by real property, and the violation of those laws can result in severe consequences to a lender, including a loss of the real property security.  These laws include, for example, Section 726 of the California Code of Civil Procedure.  Therefore, anything obtained in this Section 14.10 to the contrary notwithstanding, no Lender shall exercise any right of set-off against any Borrower Party with respect to the Obligations under the Loan Documents without the prior written consent of all of the Lenders.  In the event that any Lender exercises any right of set-off without all of the Lenders’ prior consent, such Lender shall protect, indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Administrative Agent and each of the other Lenders from and against any liability, loss, cost, damage, or injury that may result from such Person’s exercise of its right of set-off.  This Section 14.10 shall inure only for the benefit of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, and may not be relied upon by any third party, including but not limited to the Borrower and its Subsidiaries.
 
(b)   Each Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such set-off and application, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.  The rights of the Lenders under this Section 14.10 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of set-off) which the Lenders may have.
 
(c)   If an Event of Default has resulted in the Loans becoming due and payable prior to the stated maturity thereof, each Lender agrees that it shall turn over to the Administrative Agent any payment (whether voluntary or involuntary, through the exercise of any right of setoff or otherwise) on account of the Loans held by it in excess of its ratable portion of payments on account of the Loans obtained by all the Lenders.
 
14.11   Remedies of Borrower.  It is expressly understood and agreed that, notwithstanding any Applicable Law or any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents to the contrary, the liability of the Administrative Agent and each Lender (including their respective successors and assigns) and any recourse of the Borrower against the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be limited solely and exclusively to their respective interests in the Loans and/or Commitments or the Projects.  Without limiting the foregoing, in the event that a claim or adjudication is made that the Administrative Agent, any of the Lenders, or their agents, acted unreasonably or unreasonably delayed acting in any case where by Applicable Law or under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any such agent, as the case may be, has an obligation to act reasonably or promptly, or otherwise violated this Agreement or the Loan Documents, the Borrower agrees that none of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders or their agents shall be liable for any incidental, indirect, special, punitive, consequential or speculative damages or losses resulting from such failure to act reasonably or promptly in accordance with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.  
 
14.12   Brokers.  The Borrower hereby represents to the Administrative Agent and each Lender that it has not dealt with any broker, underwriter, placement agent, or finder in connection with the Transactions.  The Borrower hereby agrees that it shall pay any and all brokerage commissions or finders fees owing to any broker or finder engaged by Borrower or any of its Affiliates in connection with the Transactions and agrees and acknowledges that payment of all such brokerage commissions or finders fees shall be the Borrower’s sole responsibility.  The Borrower hereby agrees to protect and indemnify and hold the Administrative Agent and each Lender harmless from and against any and all claims, liabilities, costs and expenses of any kind in any way relating to or arising from a claim by any broker or finder engaged by Borrower or any of its Affiliates that such Person acted on behalf of the Borrower and is entitled to compensation in connection with the Transactions.
 
14.13   Estoppel Certificates.
 
(a)   The Borrower, within ten (10) days after the Administrative Agent’s request, shall furnish to the Administrative Agent a written statement, duly acknowledged, certifying to the Administrative Agent and each Lender and/or, subject to the terms of Section 14.07, any proposed assignee of any portion of the interests hereunder:  (i) the amount of the Outstanding Principal Amount then owing under this Agreement and each of the Notes, (ii) the terms of payment and Stated Maturity Date of the Loans (or if earlier, the Maturity Date), (iii) the date to which interest has been paid under each of the Notes, (iv) whether, to the Borrower’s knowledge, any offsets or defenses exist against the repayment of the Loans and, if any are alleged to exist, a reasonably detailed description thereof, (v) the extent to which the Loan Documents have been Modified by the Borrower and (vi) such other information as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request.
 
(b)   The Administrative Agent, within ten (10) days after the Borrower’s reasonable request therefor, shall furnish to the Borrower a written statement, duly acknowledged, certifying to any prospective permitted purchaser of an interest in the Borrower or any prospective permitted lender to the Borrower or any lender providing any Guaranteed Line of Credit, as to which the Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof remains or will be obligated under a Guarantee: (i) the amount of the Outstanding Principal Amount, (ii) the terms of payment and Stated Maturity Date of the Loans (or if earlier, the Maturity Date), (iii) the date to which interest has been paid under each of the Notes, (iv) whether, to the actual knowledge of the Person signing on behalf of the Administrative Agent, there are any Defaults on the part of the Borrower under this Agreement or under any of the other Loan Documents, and, if any are alleged to exist, a detailed description thereof and (v) the extent to which the Loan Documents have been Modified.
 
14.14   Preferences.  To the extent that the Borrower makes a payment or payments to the Administrative Agent and/or any Lender, which payment or proceeds or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then, to the extent of such payment or proceeds received, the obligations hereunder or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continue in full force and effect, as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by the Administrative Agent or a Lender, as the case may be.

(a)   Neither the Borrower, nor any past, present or future member in, partner in, or manager of the Borrower, nor any owner of any direct or indirect Equity Interests in the Borrower, shall be personally liable for payments due hereunder or under any other Loan Document or for the performance of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder or thereunder, or breach of any representation or warranty made by the Borrower hereunder or thereunder.  Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 14.23(a), the Borrower (but not  any past, present or future member in, partner in, or manager of the Borrower, nor any owner of any direct or indirect Equity Interests in the Borrower) shall be personally (and on a full recourse basis) liable for and shall protect, indemnify and defend the Administrative Agent and the Lenders from and against, and shall hold the Administrative Agent and the Lenders harmless of, from and against any deficiency, liability, loss, damage, costs, and expenses (including legal fees and disbursements) suffered by the Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders and caused by, or related to or as a result of any of the following:  (i) the commission of a criminal act by or on behalf of the Borrower, (ii) fraud, intentional misrepresentation or intentionally inaccurate certification made at any time in connection with the Loan Documents or the Loans by or on behalf of the Borrower; (iii) misapplication or misappropriation of cash flow or other revenue derived from or in respect of the Projects, including security deposits, Insurance Proceeds, Condemnation Awards, or any rental, sales or other income derived directly or indirectly from the Projects in violation of the Loan Documents by or on behalf of the Borrower; and/or (iv) intentional or bad faith commission of waste to or of the Projects or any portion thereof by or on behalf of the Borrower.  In addition, the Borrower (but not any past, present or future member in, partner in or manager of the Borrower, nor any owner of any direct or indirect Equity Interests in the Borrower) shall be personally (and on a full recourse basis) liable for and shall protect, indemnify and defend the Administrative Agent and the Lenders from and against, and shall hold the Administrative Agent and the Lenders harmless of, from and against any deficiency, liability, loss, damage, costs, and expenses (including legal fees and disbursements) suffered by the Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders and caused by, or related to or as a result of any of the following: (A) voluntary bankruptcy or collusion in an involuntary bankruptcy of the Borrower by or on behalf of the Borrower, (B) any violation of Section 8.11(a) or resulting from a failure to perform under the Environmental Indemnity, and/or (C) interference with foreclosure following an Event of Default by or on behalf of the Borrower.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Administrative Agent may pursue any power of sale, bring any foreclosure action, any action for specific performance, or any other appropriate action or proceedings against Borrower or any other Person for the purpose of enabling the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to realize upon the collateral for the Loans (including, without limitation, any Rents and Net Proceeds to the extent provided for in the Loan Documents) or to obtain the appointment of a receiver.
 
(c)   Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Guarantor shall have personal liability on the terms contained in the Guarantor Documents (to the extent provided therein).
 
14.24   Confidentiality.  Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information that may be disclosed (a) to it and its Subsidiaries’ and Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority, (c) to the extent required by Applicable Laws or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party to this Agreement, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 14.24, to (i) any assignee or pledgee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee or pledgee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrower and its obligations, (g) with the consent of the Borrower or (h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 14.24 or of arrangements entered into pursuant hereto or (ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Borrower; provided, however, the obligation to maintain the confidentiality of the Information provided hereunder shall expire twelve (12) months after the date upon which the Obligations hereunder are indefeasibly paid in full.  For the purposes of this Section 14.24, “Information” means all written information received from or on behalf of the Borrower relating to the Borrower, its Subsidiaries or Affiliates or their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis (and obtained from a Person not known by the Administrative Agent or such Lender to have disclosed such information in violation of a contractual confidentiality obligation of such Person owed to the Borrower) prior to disclosure by the Borrower.  The Administrative Agent and each Lender, to the extent required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 14.24, shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as a commercial banker exercising reasonable and customary business practices would accord to its own confidential information.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the information subject to this Section 14.24 shall not include, and the Administrative Agent and each Lender may disclose without limitation of any kind, any information with respect to the “tax treatment” and “tax structure” (in each case, within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.6011-4) of the transactions contemplated hereby and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to the Administrative Agent or such Lender relating to such tax treatment and tax structure; provided that with respect to any document or similar item that in either case contains information concerning the tax treatment or tax structure of the transactions as well as other information, this sentence shall only apply to such portions of the document or similar item that relate to the tax treatment or tax structure of the Loans and transactions contemplated hereby. Subject to the terms set forth in this sentence, Borrower authorizes Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders to issue, at their own expense, press releases, advertisements and other promotional materials in connection with Administrative Agent’s or such Lender’s own promotional and marketing activities, so long as such materials describe the Loans in a manner which is consistent with any accurate description of the Loans contained in any press release or public filing issued by the Borrower; provided, however, that prior to issuing any such press release, advertisement or other promotional materials, the Lender seeking to issue the same shall first deliver the proposed form of the same to the Administrative Agent for its review and submission to the Borrower, and provided, further, that no such press release, advertisement or other promotional materials shall be issued unless Borrower has approved the form of the same (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and which approval shall be granted so long as the information set forth therein is consistent with the description of the Loans contained in any press release or public filing issued by the Borrower).
 
14.25   Usury Savings Clause.  It is the intention of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to conform strictly to the usury and similar laws relating to interest from time to time in force, and all Loan Documents between the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, whether now existing or hereafter arising and whether oral or written, are hereby expressly limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by acceleration of maturity hereof or otherwise, shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid in the aggregate to the Lenders as interest (whether or not designated as interest, and including any amount otherwise designated by or deemed to constitute interest by a court of competent jurisdiction) hereunder or under the other Loan Documents or in any other agreement given to secure the Loans, or in any other document evidencing, securing or pertaining to the Loans, exceed the maximum amount (the “Maximum Rate”) permissible under Applicable Laws.  If under any circumstances whatsoever fulfillment of any provision hereof, of this Agreement or of the other Loan Documents, at the time performance of such provisions shall be due, shall involve exceeding the Maximum Rate, then, ipso facto, the obligation to be fulfilled shall be reduced to the Maximum Rate.  For purposes of calculating the actual amount of interest paid and/or payable hereunder in respect of laws pertaining to usury or such other laws, all sums paid or agreed to be paid to the Lenders for the use, forbearance or detention of the Loans evidenced hereby, outstanding from time to time shall, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, be amortized, pro-rated, allocated and spread from the date of disbursement of the proceeds of the Notes until payment in full of all of such indebtedness, so that the actual rate of interest on account of such Loans is uniform through the term hereof.  If under any circumstances any Lender shall ever receive an amount which would exceed the Maximum Rate, such amount shall be deemed a payment in reduction of the principal amount of the applicable Loans and shall be treated as a voluntary prepayment under this Agreement (without prepayment penalty or premium) and shall be so applied in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, or if such excessive interest exceeds the outstanding amount of the applicable Loans and any other Obligations, the excess shall be deemed to have been a payment made by mistake and shall be refunded to the Borrower. 
 
14.26   Cooperation with Syndication.  The Borrower acknowledges that Arranger intends to syndicate a portion of the Commitments to one or more Lenders (the “Syndication”) and in connection therewith, the Borrower will take all actions as Arranger may reasonably request to assist Arranger in its Syndication effort.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Borrower shall, at the request of Arranger (i) facilitate the review of the Loan and the Projects by any prospective Lender; (ii) assist Arranger and otherwise cooperate with Arranger in the preparation of information offering materials (which assistance may include reviewing and commenting on drafts of such information materials and drafting portions thereof); (iii) deliver updated information on the Borrower and the Projects; (iv) make representatives of the Borrower available to meet with prospective Lenders at tours of the Projects and bank meetings; (v) facilitate direct contact between the senior management and advisors of the Borrower and any prospective Lender; and (vi) provide Arranger with all information reasonably deemed necessary by it to complete the Syndication successfully.  The Borrower agrees to take such further action, in connection with documents and amendments to the Loan Documents, as may reasonably be required to effect such Syndication.  The Borrower shall not be responsible for any costs or expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Arranger, any Lender or any other Person in connection with such Syndication, other than Arranger’s attorneys’ fees incurred through the closing of the Loan.  
 
14.27   [Reserved]

(ii) The Controlled Account Agreement shall provide that (A) the Controlled Account shall be established in the name of the Administrative Agent, as agent for the Lenders, (B) the Controlled Account shall be subject to the sole dominion, control and discretion of the Administrative Agent, and (C) neither the Borrower nor any other Person, including, without limitation, any Person claiming on behalf of or through the Borrower, shall have any right or authority, whether express or implied, to make use of or withdraw, or cause the use or withdrawal of, any proceeds from the Controlled Account or any of the other proceeds deposited in the Controlled Account, except as expressly provided in this Agreement or in the Controlled Account Agreement.
 
(b)           Deposits to and Disbursements from the Controlled Account.  All deposits to and disbursements of all or any portion of the deposits to the Controlled Account shall be in accordance with this Agreement and the Controlled Account Agreement.  The Borrower shall pay any and all fees charged by Depository Bank in connection with the maintenance of the Controlled Account required to be established by or for it hereunder, and the performance of the Depository Bank’s duties.

(ii) The Borrower covenants and agrees:
 
(A)           to do all acts that may be reasonably necessary to maintain, preserve and protect the Controlled Account Collateral;
 
(B)           to pay promptly when due all material taxes, assessments, charges, encumbrances and liens now or hereafter imposed upon or affecting any Controlled Account Collateral;
 
(C)           to appear in and defend any action or proceeding which may materially and adversely affect the Borrower’s title to or the Administrative Agent’s interest in the Controlled Account Collateral;
 
(D)           following the creation of each Controlled Account established by or for the Borrower and the initial funding thereof, other than to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement or a Controlled Account Agreement, not to transfer, assign, sell, surrender, encumber, mortgage, hypothecate, or otherwise dispose of any of the Controlled Account Collateral or rights or interests therein, and to keep the Controlled Account Collateral free of all levies and security interests or other liens or charges except the security interest in favor of the Administrative Agent granted hereunder;
 
(E)           to account fully for and promptly deliver to the Administrative Agent, in the form received, all documents, chattel paper, instruments and agreements constituting the Controlled Account Collateral hereunder, endorsed to the Administrative Agent or in blank, as requested by the Administrative Agent, and accompanied by such powers as appropriate and until so delivered all such documents, instruments, agreements and proceeds shall be held by the Borrower in trust for the Administrative Agent, separate from all other property of the Borrower; and
 
(F)           from time to time upon request by the Administrative Agent, to furnish such further assurances of the Borrower’s title with respect to the Controlled Account Collateral, execute such written agreements, or do such other acts, all as may be reasonably necessary to effectuate the purposes of this agreement or as may be required by law, or in order to perfect or continue the first-priority lien and security interest of the Administrative Agent in the Controlled Account Collateral.
 
(iii) All interest earned on the Controlled Account shall be retained in such Controlled Account subject to the Borrower’s withdrawal rights set forth herein.  The Borrower shall treat all interest earned on the Controlled Account as its income for federal income tax purposes.
 
(iv) Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may (and, upon the instruction of the Required Lenders, shall):
 
(A)           without any advertisement or notice to or authorization from the Borrower (all of which advertisements, notices and/or authorizations are hereby expressly waived), withdraw, sell or otherwise liquidate the funds deposited into any Controlled Account, and apply the proceeds thereof to the unpaid Obligations in such order as the Administrative Agent may elect in its sole discretion, without liability for any loss, and the Borrower hereby consents to any such withdrawal and application as a commercially reasonable disposition of such funds and agrees that such withdrawal shall not result in satisfaction of the Obligations except to the extent the proceeds are applied to such sums;

14.30   Severance of Loan.  Eurohypo shall have the right, at any time, but at no additional cost to the Borrower, to direct the Administrative Agent, with respect to all or any portion of the Loan, to (a) cause the Notes, the Deeds of Trust and the other Security Documents to be severed and/or split into two or more separate notes, deeds of trust and other security agreements, so as to evidence and secure one or more senior and subordinate mortgage loans, (b) create one more senior and subordinate notes (i.e., an A/B or A/B/C structure) secured by the Deeds of Trust and the other Security Documents, (c) create multiple components of the Notes (and allocate or reallocate the Outstanding Principal Amount of the Loans plus Unused Commitments amount among such components or among the components of the Notes delivered upon the Closing Date) or (d) otherwise sever the Loan into two or more loans secured by the Deeds of Trust and the other Security Documents; in each such case, in whatever proportions and priorities as Eurohypo may so direct in its discretion to the Administrative Agent; provided, however, that in each such instance (i) the  Outstanding Principal Amount of the Loans plus Unused Commitments amount of all the Notes (or (in any case involving the splitting, modification, componentization or other severance of any previously-split, componentized or severed Note) components of such Notes) immediately after the effective date of such splitting, modification, componentization or other severance, equals the Outstanding Principal Amount of the Loans plus Unused  Commitments amount of all the  Notes (or (in any case involving the splitting, modification, componentization or other severance of any previously-split, componentized or severed Note) the applicable component thereof) immediately prior to such splitting, modification, componentization or other severance, (ii) the weighted average of the interest rates for all such Notes (or, if applicable, components of such Notes) immediately after the effective date of such splitting, modification, componentization or other severance equals the interest rate of the original Note (or the applicable component thereof) immediately prior to such splitting, modification, componentization or other severance thereof, (iii) there shall be no modification of the Maturity Date, the Types of Loans available to be selected by the Borrower (provided that the Applicable Margins on the relevant Types may be modified, and may differ for each of such split, modified, componentized or otherwise severed Notes or components, so long as the restrictions set forth in clause (ii) above are not violated), the due dates for mandatory principal payments, prepayment terms, Events of Default (other than cross defaulting of any severed Notes or Security Documents) or any other modifications which would result, in the aggregate, in an increase in the economic obligations of the Borrower with respect to all Loans outstanding hereunder following such splitting, modification, componentization or other severance as compared to the obligations of the Borrower immediately prior thereto (other than changes in the interest rate or Applicable Margins which do not violate the restrictions in clause (ii) above), including, without limitation, any recourse provisions, and (iv) except for modifications which do not violate the restrictions set forth in clauses (ii) and (iii) above, such modification shall not result, in the aggregate, in an increase in any liability or obligation, or any change in any substantive rights, of the Borrower, any Borrower Party, the Guarantor or any Named Principal under the Loan Documents following such splitting, modification, componentization or other severance as compared to the respective liabilities, obligations or rights of such parties immediately prior thereto.  If requested by the Administrative Agent in writing, subject to the provisions of Section 2.04(b), the Borrower shall execute within ten (10) Business Days after such request, a severance agreement, amendments to or amendments and restatements of any one or more Loan Documents, and such documentation as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request to evidence and/or effectuate any such splitting, modification, componentization or other severance, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Eurohypo, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower.
 
14.31                      Additional REIT Provisions.  
 
(a)   The Borrower shall have the right from time to time upon notice to, but without the consent of, the Administrative Agent to change the Borrower’s Manager to the REIT or any other REIT Subsidiary determined by the REIT.  Upon the occurrence of such change, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of the name and principal place of business or chief executive office of the new Borrower’s Manager within ten (10) Business Days after any change in the same.
 
(b)   Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 1.02(b), the Borrower shall have the right from time to time upon notice to, but without the consent of, the Administrative Agent, to change its fiscal year, including the last days of its fiscal year and fiscal quarters, to correspond with those of the REIT.  The Borrower shall provide written notice thereof to the Administrative Agent within ten (10) Business Days after the occurrence of such change.
 
(c)   [reserved]
 
(d)   The Borrower shall have the right to terminate (or assign to the new property manager) the existing Property Management Agreement for each Project and to replace, pursuant to this Section 14.31(d), the Property Manager by the REIT or by a management company controlled directly or indirectly by the REIT (including, without limitation, the Operating Partnership of the REIT or any other wholly-owned REIT Subsidiary).  If any Project is managed by the REIT or a REIT Subsidiary, then the Borrower may dispense with the requirement of entering into a property management agreement or may enter into a new property management agreement for one or more of the Projects on such terms as it deems satisfactory (which may include, without limitation, a separate cost sharing agreement delegating responsibilities for property management to the REIT or a REIT Subsidiary); provided that, if a property management agreement is entered into, such agreement shall in all events be subordinate to the Deeds of Trust and the other Loan Documents, and, within thirty (30) days after entering into a new property management agreement, the Borrower and the new property manager will execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a Property Manager’s Consent, with such changes thereto as may be reasonably necessary for the REIT or its Affiliates to comply with tax or other Applicable Laws pertaining to their status.

15.03                      Obligations of Secondary Obligor to be Absolute.  The Secondary Obligor expressly agrees that, until all Obligations have been paid and performed in full, the Secondary Obligor shall not be released by or because of:
 
(a)           Any act or event which might otherwise discharge, reduce, limit or modify the Secondary Obligor’s obligations under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents;
 
(b)           Any waiver, extension, modification, forbearance, delay or other act or omission of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, or any failure to proceed promptly or otherwise against the Primary Obligor, the Secondary Obligor or any security;
 
(c)           Any action, omission or circumstance which might increase the likelihood that the Secondary Obligor may be called upon to perform under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or which might affect the rights or remedies of the Secondary Obligor against the Primary Obligor; or
 
(d)           Any dealings occurring at any time between the Primary Obligor and the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, whether relating to the Primary Obligor Obligations or otherwise.
 
The Secondary Obligor hereby acknowledges that, absent this Section 15.03, the Secondary Obligor might have a defense to its Obligations as a result of one or more of the foregoing acts, omissions, agreements, waivers or matters.  The Secondary Obligor hereby expressly waives and surrenders any defense to any liability on account of its Obligations based upon any of such acts, omissions, agreements, waivers or matters.
 
15.04                      Waivers of Defenses.  The Secondary Obligor waives:
 
(a)           Any right it may have to require the Administrative Agent or the Lenders to proceed against the Primary Obligor, proceed against or exhaust any security held from the Primary Obligor, or pursue any other remedy in the Administrative Agent's or Lenders’ power to pursue;
 
(b)           Any defense based on any claim that the Secondary Obligor’s obligations exceed or are more burdensome than those of the Primary Obligor;
 
(c)           Any defense based on:  (i) any legal disability of the Primary Obligor; (ii) any release, discharge, modification, impairment or limitation of the liability of the Primary Obligor to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders from any cause, whether consented to by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders or arising by operation of law or from any bankruptcy or other voluntary or involuntary proceeding, in or out of court, for the adjustment of debtor-creditor relationships ("Insolvency Proceeding") and (iii) any rejection or disaffirmance, of the Primary Obligor Obligations, or any part thereof, or any security held therefor, in any such Insolvency Proceedings;
 
(d)           Any defense based on any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders in any Insolvency Proceeding involving the Primary Obligor, including any election to have their claim allowed as being secured, partially secured or unsecured, any extension of credit by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders to the Primary Obligor in any Insolvency Proceeding and the taking and holding by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders of any security for any such extension of credit;
 
(e)           All presentments, demands for performance, notice of nonperformance, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor, notices of acceptance of the Obligations and of the existence, creation, or incurring of new or additional indebtedness, and demands and notices of every kind, but only in Secondary Obligor’s capacity as Secondary Obligor and not in its capacity as Primary Obligor or as otherwise provided in the Loan Documents; and
 
(f)           Any defense based on or arising out of any action of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders described in Sections 15.02 or 15.03 above, subject to the provisions of Sections 15.02 and 15.03 above.
 
15.05                      Impairment of Subrogation Rights.
 
(a)           Upon an Event of Default by the Primary Obligor, the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion, without prior notice (except as required by this Agreement or Applicable Law) to or consent of the Secondary Obligor, may elect to foreclose either judicially or nonjudicially against any real or personal property security it may hold for the Primary Obligor Obligations, or accept a transfer of any such security in lieu of foreclosure, or compromise or adjust the Primary Obligor Obligations or any part thereof or make any other accommodation with the Primary Obligor, or exercise any other remedy against the Primary Obligor or any security.  No such action by the Administrative Agent shall release or limit the liability of the Secondary Obligor, who shall, subject to the provisions of Section 14.23(a), remain liable for the Obligations after the action, even if the affect of the action is to deprive the Secondary Obligor of any subrogation rights, rights of indemnity, or other rights to collect reimbursement from the Primary Obligor for any sums paid to the Administrative Agent or any Lender, whether contractual or arising by operation of law or otherwise.  The Secondary Obligor expressly agrees that under no circumstances shall it be deemed to have any right, title, interest or claim in or to any real or personal property held by the Administrative Agent or any third party after any foreclosure or transfer in lieu of foreclosure of any security for the Primary Obligor Obligations.
 
(b)           Regardless of whether the Secondary Obligor may have made any payments to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, the Secondary Obligor hereby waives:  (i) except as expressly permitted by the Contribution Agreement, all rights of subrogation, indemnification, contribution and any other rights to collect reimbursement from the Primary Obligor or any other party for any sums paid to the Administrative Agent  or the Lenders whether contractual or arising by operation of law (including, without limitation, under Sections 2847 or 2848 of the California Civil Code, under any provisions of the United States Bankruptcy Code, or any successor or similar statutes) or otherwise, (ii) all rights to enforce any remedy that the Administrative Agent or the Lenders may have against the Primary Obligor, and (iii) all rights to participate in any security now or later held by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders for the Primary Obligor Obligations.  The Secondary Obligor further agrees that, to the extent the foregoing waiver is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be void or voidable for any reason, any rights of subrogation, reimbursement, contribution and indemnification the Secondary Obligor may have against the Primary Obligor or against any collateral or security, shall be junior and subordinate to any rights the Administrative Agent or the Lenders may have against the Primary Obligor, and to all right, title and interest the Administrative Agent or the Lenders may have in any such collateral or security.  If any amount shall be paid to the Secondary Obligor on account of any such subrogation, reimbursement, contribution or indemnification rights at any time when all the Primary Obligor Obligations have not been paid in full, such amount shall be held in trust by the Secondary Obligor and shall forthwith be paid over to the Administrative Agent to be credited and applied against the Primary Obligor Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of the Primary Obligor Documents.  The waivers given in this Section 15.05(b) shall be effective until the Primary Obligor Obligations have been paid and performed in full.
 
(c)           The Secondary Obligor understands and acknowledges that, if the Administrative Agent forecloses judicially or nonjudicially against any real property security for the Primary Obligor Obligations, that foreclosure could impair or destroy the ability that the Secondary Obligor may have to seek reimbursement, contribution or indemnification from the Primary Obligor.  The Secondary Obligor further understands and acknowledges that in the absence of this Section 15.05, such potential impairment or destruction of the Secondary Obligor’s rights, if any, may entitle the Secondary Obligor to assert a defense to its liability on account of the Obligations based on Section 580d of the California Code of Civil Procedure as interpreted in Union Bank v. Gradsky, 286 Cal.App.2d 40 (1968).  The Secondary Obligor freely, irrevocably and unconditionally:  (i) waives and relinquishes that defense and agrees that the Secondary Obligor will be fully liable for the Obligations even though the Administrative Agent may foreclose judicially or nonjudicially against any real property security for the Primary Obligor Obligations; (ii) agrees that the Secondary Obligor will not assert that defense in any action or proceeding which the Administrative Agent may commence to enforce the Secondary Obligor’s liability on account of the Obligations, (iii) acknowledges and agrees that the rights and defenses waived by the Secondary Obligor hereunder on account of the Primary Obligor Obligations include any right or defense that the Secondary Obligor may have or be entitled to assert based upon or arising out of any one or more of Sections 580a, 580b or 726 of the California Code of Civil Procedure or Section 2848 of the California Civil Code; and (iv) acknowledges and agrees that the Lenders are relying on this waiver in extending the credit to the Primary Obligor and the Secondary Obligor, and that this waiver is a material part of the consideration which the Administrative Agent and the Lenders are receiving for providing the Commitments under this Agreement to the Primary Obligor.
 
(d)           The Secondary Obligor waives any rights and defenses that are or may become available to the Secondary Obligor on account of the Primary Obligor Obligations by reason of Sections 2787 to 2855, inclusive, of the California Civil Code.
 
(e)           The Secondary Obligor waives all rights and defenses that the Secondary Obligor may have because the Primary Obligor Obligations are secured by real property.  This means, among other things, (i) the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may collect from the Secondary Obligor and pursue any real or personal property pledged by the Secondary Obligor without first foreclosing on any real or personal property collateral pledged by the Primary Obligor; (ii) the amount of the Obligations for which Secondary Obligor is liable may be reduced only by the price for which that collateral is sold at the foreclosure sale, even if the collateral is worth more than the sale price; and (iii) the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may collect from the Secondary Obligor even if the Administrative Agent, by foreclosing on the real property collateral, has destroyed any right the Secondary Obligor may have to collect from the Primary Obligor.  This is an unconditional and irrevocable waiver of any rights and defenses the Secondary Obligor may have because the Primary Obligor Obligations are secured by real property.  These rights and defenses include, but are not limited to, any rights or defenses based upon Section 580a, 580b, 580d, or 726 of the Code of Civil Procedure.  In addition, Secondary Obligor waives all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, even though that election of remedies, such as a nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to security for the guaranteed obligation, has destroyed the Secondary Obligor’s rights of subrogation and reimbursement against the Primary Obligor by the operation of Section 580d of the Code of Civil Procedure or otherwise.
 
15.06                      Revival and Reinstatement.  If the Administrative Agent or any Lender is required to pay, return or restore to the Primary Obligor or any other person any amounts previously paid on the Primary Obligor Obligations because of any Insolvency Proceeding of the Primary Obligor, any stop notice or any other reason, the obligation of the Secondary Obligor shall be reinstated and revived and the rights of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall continue with regard to such amounts, all as though they had never been paid.
 
15.07                      The Primary Obligor’s Financial Condition.  The Secondary Obligor assumes full responsibility for keeping informed of the Primary Obligor’s financial condition and business operations and all other circumstances affecting the Primary Obligor's ability to pay and perform its obligations to the Administrative Agent, and agrees that the Administrative Agent shall have no duty to disclose to the Secondary Obligor any information which the Administrative Agent may receive about the Primary Obligor's financial condition, business operations, or any other circumstances bearing on its ability to perform.
 
15.08                      Intent of Waivers.  The waivers and other provisions of this Article 15 are made by the Secondary Obligor solely for itself and not on behalf of the Primary Obligor.  Furthermore, the waivers and other provisions of this Article 15 are made by the Secondary Obligor solely in its capacity as a Secondary Obligor and not in its capacity as a Primary Obligor.  Nothing herein is intended to, or shall, modify, or constitute a waiver or surrender by the Secondary Obligor of, any right, remedy or defense that would otherwise be available to the Secondary Obligor on account of its Obligations in its capacity as a Primary Obligor.
 
15.09                      Borrower’s Joint and Several.  2007 LLC Borrower, 1995 LLC Borrower and LP Borrower hereby agree that: (i) 2007 LLC Borrower, 1995 LLC Borrower and LP Borrower are (subject to Section 14.23 of this Agreement) jointly and severally liable for all of the obligations of the Borrower set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; (ii) the occurrence of any Event of Default shall be an Event of Default by 2007 LLC Borrower, 1995 LLC Borrower and LP Borrower; (iii) the Obligations which are secured by all Security Documents are the Obligations of the 2007 LLC Borrower, 1995 LLC Borrower and LP Borrower, and (iv) each of 2007 LLC Borrower, 1995 LLC Borrower and LP Borrower assumes the obligations of each of 2007 LLC Borrower, 1995 LLC Borrower and LP Borrower under each and every Loan Document entered into by any of 2007 LLC Borrower, 1995 LLC Borrower or LP Borrower.
 
ARTICLE XVI
 
 
GROUND LEASE PROVISIONS
 
16.01                      Ground Lease.  The Administrative Agent and the Lenders acknowledge that a portion of the LP Borrower’s fee interest in the Trillium Project is subject to the Ground Lease.  For all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the Ground Lease is a “Lease,” an “Approved Lease,” and a “Major Lease.”  Accordingly, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, the Deed of Trust encumbering the Trillium Project), the following provisions shall apply with respect to the Ground Leased Property and the LP Borrower (but not with respect to any other Project (including the Trillium Project (other than that portion of the Trillium Project which is the Ground Leased Property) or the 2007 LLC Borrower or 1995 LLC Borrower):
 
(i)           No representation or warranty in Article 7 of this Agreement pertaining to any Person or any Project shall be interpreted as a representation or warranty concerning (a) the Ground Lessee or the interest of the Ground Lessee (or any subtenant or licensee of the Ground Leased Property), (b) title to any property owned by the Ground Lessee, (c) except as to Borrower’s knowledge, the physical or other condition of the Hilton Hotel Improvements or the compliance of such Hilton Hotel Improvements, or the Ground Lessee (or any subtenant or licensee of the Ground Leased Property), with Applicable Laws or Governmental Approvals, (d) except as to Borrower’s knowledge, Governmental Approvals pertaining to the Ground Leased Property, or (e) any Lease other than the Ground Lease.
 
(ii)           Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, solely as to the LP Borrower and the Ground Leased Property, the following representations and warranties are true and correct as of the date hereof:
 
(1)           The LP Borrower has not entered into any Lease of the Ground Leased Property other than the Ground Lease.  The LP Borrower is the sole owner and lessor of landlord's interest under the Ground Lease.  The Ground Lease is in full force and effect and, to LP Borrower’s knowledge, there are no defaults thereunder by the LP Borrower or by Ground Lessee.  To LP Borrower’s knowledge, there are no conditions that, with the passage of time or the giving of notice, or both, would constitute defaults thereunder by the LP Borrower or by Ground Lessee.  No right or claim of rescission, offset, abatement, diminution, defense or counterclaim has been asserted and is pending with respect to the Ground Lease by the LP Borrower or, to Borrower’s knowledge, by Ground Lessee. There is no existing condition known to LP Borrower that, with the passage of time or giving of notice, or both, would result in a right or claim of rescission, offset, abatement, diminution, defense or counterclaim by the LP Borrower or, to Borrower’s knowledge, by Ground Lessee under the terms and provisions of the Ground Lease. No Rent under the Ground Lease has been paid more than one (1) month in advance of its due date.
 
(2)           The LP Borrower does not have any material monetary obligations under the Ground Lease and all material monetary obligations associated with using, managing, owning, developing and operating the Ground Leased Property (including, without limitation, all costs associated with utilities, real estate taxes, insurance, maintenance and repairs) are obligations of Ground Lessee pursuant to the terms and provisions of the Ground Lease. There does not currently exist any unperformed non-monetary obligations under the terms and provisions of the Ground Lease which could reasonably be expected to give Ground Lessee cause to interrupt the payment of Rent or other monetary obligations of Ground Lessee pursuant to the Ground Lease, and, to LP Borrower’s knowledge, all work required to be performed by the LP Borrower under the Ground Lease has been performed as required and, to Borrower’s knowledge, has been accepted by Ground Lessee. There is no free rent, and no allowances or abatements are required to be given by the LP Borrower to Ground Lessee, under the Ground Lease.
 
(3)           There is no presently effective sale, transfer, assignment, hypothecation or pledge of the interest of the LP Borrower in the Ground Lease or of the Rent received pursuant to the Ground Lease, other than in connection with the Loan Documents.  Neither Ground Lessee nor any other Person has a right or option pursuant to the Ground Lease or otherwise to purchase all or any part of the Ground Leased Property.
 
(4)           The Ground Lease has an original term ending on or after the Maturity Date.  The Rent under the Ground Lease is payable without notice or demand.  The LP Borrower has no knowledge of any current fact, circumstance or condition which is reasonably likely to give Ground Lessee a right of setoff, recoupment, abatement or reduction under the Ground Lease. The LP Borrower has not released, in whole or in part, Ground Lessee from any of its obligations under the Ground Lease.  If Ground Lessee sublets its interest or obligations under the Ground Lease, Ground Lessee shall remain fully and primarily liable thereunder pursuant to the provisions of the Ground Lease.
 
(iii)           Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 9.09(a) of this Agreement, solely as to the LP Borrower and the Ground Leased Property, the LP Borrower shall not (i) accept from the Ground Lessee, nor permit the Ground Lessee to pay, Rent for more than one pay period under the Ground Lease in advance except for payment in the nature of security for performance of a tenant’s obligations, escalations, percentage rents, taxes, insurance and other pass-throughs paid by the Ground Lessee pursuant to the Ground Lease, (ii) Modify, terminate, or accept surrender of, the Ground Lease, without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, except in accordance with any existing rights of Modification or termination exercisable by the Ground Lessee pursuant to the terms of the Ground Lease as in effect on the date hereof, (iii) except for the Deed of Trust, assign, transfer (except for a Transfer permitted by this Agreement), pledge, subordinate or mortgage any of the LP Borrower’s interest in the Ground Lease or in or to any Rent without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders, (iv) waive or release any nonperformance of any material covenant under the Ground Lease without the Administrative Agent’s prior written consent, or (v) release any guarantor from its obligations under any guaranty of the Ground Lease or any letter of credit or other credit support for a tenant’s performance under the Ground Lease, except as expressly permitted pursuant to the terms of the Ground Lease.  Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary contained herein, the LP Borrower shall have the right, at its option, to terminate or accept the surrender of the Ground Lease, and to pursue any other rights and remedies the LP Borrower may have under the Ground Lease or Applicable Laws, following an uncured material default by the Ground Lessee.
 
(iv)           Solely as to the LP Borrower and the Ground Leased Property, Section 9.12 of this Agreement (and any similar provision of this Agreement or other Loan Documents restricting changes in zoning or entitlements, or pertaining to any restrictions on use), shall be subject to the provisions of the Ground Lease and the rights of the Ground Lessee thereunder.  The LP Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent notice of any such change promptly after becoming aware of it.
 
(v)           Solely as to the LP Borrower and the Ground Leased Property, the provisions of Article 10 of this Agreement (and any similar provision of this Agreement or other Loan Documents pertaining to Casualty Events, Insurance Proceeds, Takings, Condemnation Awards or Restoration) shall be subject to the provisions of the Ground Lease and the rights of the Ground Lessee thereunder.

(1)           Loans.  Each Lender severally agrees, on the terms and conditions of this Agreement, to make a term loan to Borrower in Dollars in a principal amount equal  to but not exceeding the amount of the Commitment of such Lender.  The Loans in the aggregate amount of Three Hundred Eighty Million Dollars and No/100s ($380,000,000.00) shall be funded in one advance and repaid in accordance with this Agreement.  The initial advance of the Loans, in the aggregate amount of Three Hundred Eighty Million Dollars and No/100s ($380,000,000.00), shall be made upon Borrower’s satisfaction of the conditions to the initial advance described in Schedule 2.1.  The Loans are not a revolving credit loan, and Borrower is not entitled to any readvances of any portion of the Loans which it may  prepay pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement.
 
(2)           Lending Offices.  The Loans of each Lender shall be made and maintained at such Lender’s Applicable Lending Office for Loans of such Type.
 
(3)           Several Obligations.  The failure of any Lender to make any Loan to be made by it on the date specified therefor shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation to make its Loan, but neither any Lender nor the Administrative Agent shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make a Loan to be made by such other Lender.
 
(4)           Notes.
 
(a)           Loan Notes.  The Loans made by each Lender shall be evidenced by a single promissory note of Borrower substantially in the form of Exhibit C, payable to such Lender in a principal amount equal to the amount of its Commitment as originally in effect and otherwise duly completed.
 
(b)           Endorsements on Notes.  The date, amount, Type, interest rate and duration of Interest Period (if applicable) of each Loan made by each Lender to Borrower, and each payment made on account of the principal thereof, shall be recorded by such Lender on its books and, prior to any transfer of the Note held by it, endorsed by such Lender on the schedule attached to such Note or any continuation thereof; provided that the failure of such Lender to make any such recordation or endorsement shall not affect the obligations of Borrower to make a payment when due of any amount owing hereunder or under such Note in respect of such Loans.
 
(c)           Substitution, Exchange and Subdivision of Notes.  No Lender shall be entitled to have its Notes substituted or exchanged for any reason, or subdivided for promissory notes of lesser denominations, except in connection with a permitted assignment of all or any portion of such Lender’s Commitment, Loans and Note pursuant to Sections 12.9(3), 12.10 and 12.24 (and, if requested by any Lender, Borrower agrees to so substitute or exchange any Notes and enter into note splitter agreements in connection therewith provided the original note or notes so substituted or exchanged are delivered to Borrower).
 
(d)           Loss, Theft, Destruction or Mutilation of Notes.  In the event of the loss, theft or destruction of any Note, upon Borrower’s receipt of a reasonably satisfactory indemnification agreement executed in favor of Borrower by the holder of such Note, or in the event of the mutilation of any Note, upon the surrender of such mutilated Note by the holder thereof to Borrower, Borrower shall execute and deliver to such holder a new replacement Note in lieu of the lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note.
 
(e)           Funding of Loans.  Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 12:00 noon, New York City time, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders.  The Administrative Agent will promptly make such Loans available to Borrowers by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account in the United States designated by the Borrower.
 
Section 2.2                                Interest Rate; Late Charge. The outstanding principal balance of the Loans (including any amounts added to principal under the Loan Documents) shall bear interest at a variable rate of interest equal to two percent (2.0%) per annum in excess of the Adjusted Libor Rate (the “Contract Rate”). Subject to the provisions of this Agreement which, in certain instances, require payment of interest at the Alternate Base Rate, so long as no Event of Default exists, such Eurodollar Loans shall automatically Continue from one Interest Period to the next Interest Period.  Interest shall be computed on the basis of a fraction, the denominator of which is three hundred sixty (360) and the numerator of which is the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day) during the period for which payable.  If Borrower fails to pay any installment of interest  within five (5) days after the applicable Payment Date , Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Lenders) a late charge on such past-due amount, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, equal to five percent (5%) of such amount, but not in excess of the maximum amount of interest allowed by applicable law, it being understood that the foregoing late charge shall not apply to the payment due on the Maturity Date.  The foregoing late charge is intended to compensate the Administrative Agent and the Lenders for the expenses incident to handling any such delinquent payment and for the losses incurred by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders as a result of such delinquent payment.  Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agree that, considering all of the circumstances existing on the date this Agreement is executed, the late charge represents a reasonable estimate of the costs and losses the Administrative Agent and the Lenders will incur by reason of late payment.  Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders further agree that proof of actual losses would be costly, inconvenient, impracticable and extremely difficult to fix.  Acceptance of the late charge shall not constitute a waiver of the default arising from the overdue installment, and shall not prevent the Administrative Agent and the Lenders from exercising any other rights or remedies available to the Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders.  While any Event of Default exists, the Loans shall bear interest at the Default Rate; provided, that during the continuance of an Event of Default the Administrative Agent may suspend the right of Borrower to Continue any Loan as a Eurodollar Loan, in which event all Loans shall be Converted (on the last day(s) of the respective Interest Periods therefor) into Alternate Base Rate Loans and, thereafter, the Default Rate shall be computed using the Alternate Base Rate.
 
Section 2.3                                Terms of Payment.  The Loans shall be payable as follows:
 
(1)           Interest.  On the Closing Date, Borrower shall make a payment of interest only (covering the period from the Closing Date through March 31, 2008 (the “Stub Interest Period”).  Commencing on May 1, 2008, and continuing on the first Business Day of each month thereafter through the Maturity Date (each, a “Payment Date”), Borrower shall pay accrued interest on the Loans for the prior Interest Period in accordance with the wire transfer instructions set forth in Schedule 2.3(1) hereto (or such other instructions as the Administrative Agent may from time to time provide by notice to Borrower).
 
(2)           Reserved.
 
(3)           Maturity.  On the Maturity Date, Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Lenders) all outstanding principal, accrued and unpaid interest, and any other amounts due under the Loan Documents.
 
(4)           Prepayment.  Except as otherwise permitted by Section 2.4 below, Borrower may prepay the Loans, in whole but not in part, upon not less than five (5) days prior written notice to the Administrative Agent and without payment of any prepayment premium.  If the Loans are prepaid such prepayment shall be made to the Administrative Agent on the prepayment date specified in the notice to the Administrative Agent pursuant hereto (unless such notice is revoked (or the date of prepayment is postponed) by a further written notice delivered by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent.  Any notice revoking a notice of prepayment (or postponing a previously-specified prepayment date) shall be delivered not less than one (1) Business Day prior to the date of prepayment specified in the notice of prepayment; provided, however, in the event that the Borrower revokes or postpones such notice during the last three (3) Business Days of any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Loan, Borrower shall pay any losses, costs or expenses of Lender that may subsequently result from the early repayment, termination, cancellation or failure of the Borrower to continue any Eurodollar Loan that was to have been automatically continued), and together with (a) the accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount prepaid and (b) any amounts payable to a Lender pursuant to Section 2.8(5) as a result of such prepayment while a Eurodollar Loan is in effect.  If the Loans are prepaid for any reason (including acceleration), other than casualty or condemnation, Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Lenders) the amount(s) described in clauses (a) and (b) of the immediately preceding sentence.  The prepayment premiums, if any, required by this Section 2.3(4) are acknowledged by Borrower to be partial compensation to Lenders for the costs of reinvesting the Loan proceeds and for the loss of the contracted rate of return on the Loan.  Furthermore, Borrower acknowledges that the loss that may be sustained by Lenders as a result of such a prepayment by Borrower is not susceptible of precise calculation and the prepayment premium, if any, represents the good faith effort of Borrower and Lenders to compensate Lender for such loss.  By initialing this provision where indicated below, Borrower waives any rights it may have under California Civil Code Section 2954.10, or any successor statute, and Borrower confirms that Lenders’ agreement to make the Loan at the interest rate and on the other terms set forth herein constitutes adequate and valuable consideration, given individual weight by Borrower, for the prepayment provisions set forth in this Section 2.3(4).

Borrower’s Initials
 
(5)           Application of Payments.  All payments received by the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents shall be applied:  (a) first, to any fees and expenses due to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under the Loan Documents; (b) second, to any Default Rate interest or late charges, if any; (c) third, to accrued and unpaid interest; and (d) fourth, to the principal sum and other amounts due under the Loan Documents; provided, however, that, if an Event of Default exists, the Administrative Agent shall apply such payments in any order or manner as the Administrative Agent shall determine.
 
(6)           Security.  The Loans shall be secured by the Mortgages creating a first Lien on each of the Projects (subject to the Permitted Encumbrances), the Assignments of Rents and Leases and the other Loan Documents.
 
Section 2.4                                Release of Properties.  Except as set forth in this Section 2.4, no repayment or prepayment of all or any portion of the Notes (other than the payment of the Loans in full) shall cause, give rise to a right to require, or otherwise result in, the release of the Lien of the Mortgage on any Project or other collateral securing the Loans.
 
(1)           Release of Individual Projects.  Borrower on one or more occasions may obtain, and the Administrative Agent and Lenders shall take such actions as are necessary to effectuate pursuant to this Section 2.4, (a) the release of any Project or Projects from the Lien of the Mortgage thereon (and related Loan Documents) and (b) the release of Borrower’s obligations under the Loan Documents with respect to such Project or Projects (other than those expressly stated to survive repayment, including, but not limited to, those set forth in the Environmental Indemnity Agreement), upon satisfaction of each of the following conditions to the reasonable satisfaction of the Administrative Agent:
 
 
(i) Borrower shall remit to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to the Allocated Loan Amount (as such amount may have been reduced by any insurance or condemnation proceeds previously paid to Administrative Agent with respect to such Project and applied to the principal of the Loans in accordance with the terms hereof) for the applicable Project;
 
(ii) Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent all sums, including, but not limited to, interest payments (including accrued interest on the principal amount required to be paid pursuant to clause (i) above ), and all costs due pursuant to subsection 2.8(5) below and subpart (vii) hereof;
 
(iii) The applicable Project is transferred by Borrower to another Person which is not an Affiliate of Borrower pursuant to a contract of sale that is a bona fide arm's length contract with market-rate terms, or is refinanced subject to the limitations on debt set forth in clause (b) of the definition of Single Purpose Entity;
 
(iv) Borrower shall submit to the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Lenders), prior to the date of such release, a release of Lien and related Loan Documents (or, in the case of a Mortgage, a request for reconveyance) for such Project for execution by the Administrative Agent, which the Administrative Agent shall promptly execute and deliver to the Borrower for recordation upon satisfaction of all conditions set forth in this Section 2.4(1).  Such release shall be in a form appropriate in each jurisdiction in which the applicable Project is located and reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent;
 
(v) So long as the Project known as the “Warner Corporation Center” has not been released in accordance with the terms hereof, then, after giving effect to such release, there shall be at least one Project other than the Project known as the “Warner Corporation Center” remaining as Collateral for the Loan;
 
(vi) No Potential Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of the proposed release or after giving effect thereto;
 
(vii) Borrower shall pay all actual and reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees and disbursements) incurred by Administrative Agent or Lenders in connection with such release; and
 
(viii) Such release shall be in compliance with all applicable legal requirements, and will not impair or otherwise adversely affect the Liens, security interests and other rights of the Administrative Agent or Lenders under the Loan Documents not being released (or as to the parties to the Loan Documents and Projects subject to the Loan Documents not being released).
 

Section 2.5                                Reserved.

Section 2.7                                Payments; Pro Rata Treatment; Etc.
 
(1)           Payments Generally.
 
(a)           Payments by Borrower.  Except to the extent otherwise provided herein, all payments of principal, interest and other amounts to be made by Borrower under this Agreement and the Notes, and, except to the extent otherwise provided therein, all payments to be made by Borrower under any other Loan Document, shall be made in Dollars, in immediately available funds, without deduction, set-off or counterclaim, to the Administrative Agent at an account designated by the Administrative Agent by notice to Borrower, not later than 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date on which such payment shall become due (each such payment made after such time on such due date to be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day).
 
(b)           Reserved.
 
(c)           Forwarding of Payments by Administrative Agent.  Except as otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, each payment received by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement  or any Note for account of any Lender shall be paid by the Administrative Agent promptly to such Lender, in immediately available funds, for account of such Lender’s Applicable Lending Office for the Loans or other obligation in respect of which such payment is made.
 
(d)           Extensions to Next Business Day.  If the due date of any payment under this Agreement or any Note would otherwise fall on a day that is not a Business Day, such date shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and interest shall be payable for any principal so extended for the period of such extension.
 
(2)           Pro Rata Treatment.  Except to the extent otherwise provided herein:  (a) each advance of a Loan from the Lenders under Section 2.1(1) shall be made from the Lenders, and any termination of the obligation to make an advance of the Loans shall be applied to the respective Commitments of the Lenders, pro rata according to the amounts of their respective Commitments; (b) except as otherwise provided in Section 2.7(4), Loans shall be allocated pro rata among the Lenders according to the amounts of their respective Commitments (in the case of the making of Loans) or their respective Loans (in the case of Conversions or Continuations of Loans); (c) each payment or prepayment of principal of Loans by Borrower shall be made for account of the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid principal amounts of the Loans held by them; and (d) each payment of interest on Loans by Borrower shall be made for account of the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the amounts of interest on such Loans then due and payable to the respective Lenders.
 
(3)           Non-Receipt of Funds by the Administrative Agent.  Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by a Lender or Borrower (in either case, the “Payor”) prior to the date on which the Payor is to make payment to the Administrative Agent of (in the case of a Lender) the proceeds of a Loan to be made by such Lender hereunder or (in the case of Borrower) a payment to the Administrative Agent for account of any Lender hereunder (in either case, such payment being herein called the “Required Payment”), which notice shall be effective upon receipt, that the Payor does not intend to make the Required Payment to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Required Payment has been made and may, in reliance upon such assumption (but shall not be required to), make the amount thereof available to the intended recipient(s) on such date; and, if the Payor has not in fact made the Required Payment to the Administrative Agent, the recipient(s) of such payment shall, on demand, repay to the Administrative Agent the amount so made available together with interest thereon in respect of each day during the period commencing on the date (the “Advance Date”) such amount was so made available by the Administrative Agent until the date the Administrative Agent recovers such amount at a rate per annum equal to (a) the Federal Funds Rate for such day in the case of payments returned to the Administrative Agent by any of the Lenders or (b) the applicable interest rate due hereunder with respect to payments returned by Borrower to the Administrative Agent and, if such recipient(s) shall fail promptly to make such payment, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount, on demand, from the Payor, together with interest as aforesaid, provided that if neither the recipient(s) nor the Payor shall return the Required Payment to the Administrative Agent within three (3) Business Days of the Advance Date, then, retroactively to the Advance Date, the Payor and the recipient(s) shall each be obligated to pay interest on the Required Payment as follows:
 
(a)           if the Required Payment shall represent a payment to be made by Borrower to the Lenders, Borrower and the recipient(s) shall each be obligated retroactively to the Advance Date to pay interest in respect of the Required Payment at the Default Rate (without duplication of the obligation of Borrower under Section 2.2 to pay interest on the Required Payment at the Default Rate), it being understood that the return by the recipient(s) of the Required Payment to the Administrative Agent shall not limit such obligation of Borrower under Section 2.2 to pay interest at the Default Rate in respect of the Required Payment, and
 
(b)           if the Required Payment shall represent proceeds of a Loan to be made by the Lenders to Borrower, the Payor and Borrower shall each be obligated retroactively to the Advance Date to pay interest in respect of the Required Payment pursuant to whichever of the rates specified in Section 2.2 is applicable to the Type of such Loan, it being understood that the return by Borrower of the Required Payment to the Administrative Agent shall not limit any claim Borrower may have against the Payor in respect of such Required Payment.
 
(4)           Sharing of Payments, Etc.
 
(a)           Right of Set-off.  Borrower agrees that, in addition to (and without limitation of) any right of set-off, banker’s lien or counterclaim a Lender may otherwise have, each Lender shall be entitled, at its option (to the fullest extent permitted by law), to set off and apply any deposit (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), or other indebtedness, held by it for the credit or account of Borrower at any of its offices, in Dollars or in any other currency, against any principal of or interest on any of such Lender’s Loans or any other amount payable to such Lender hereunder, that is not paid when due (regardless of whether such deposit or other indebtedness is then due to Borrower), in which case it shall promptly notify Borrower and the Administrative Agent thereof, provided that such Lender’s failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity thereof.
 
(b)           Sharing.  If any Lender shall obtain from Borrower payment of any principal of or interest on any Loan owing to it or payment of any other amount under this Agreement or any other Loan Document through the exercise of any right of set-off, banker’s lien or counterclaim or similar right or otherwise (other than from the Administrative Agent as provided herein), and, as a result of such payment, such Lender shall have received a greater percentage of the principal of or interest on the Loans or such other amounts then due hereunder or thereunder by Borrower to such Lender than the percentage received by any other Lender, it shall promptly purchase from such other Lenders participations in (or, if and to the extent specified by such Lender, direct interests in) the Loans or such other amounts, respectively, owing to such other Lenders (or in interest due thereon, as the case may be) in such amounts, and make such other adjustments from time to time as shall be equitable, to the end that all the Lenders shall share the benefit of such excess payment (net of any expenses that may be incurred by such Lender in obtaining or preserving such excess payment) pro rata in accordance with the unpaid principal of and/or interest on the Loans or such other amounts, respectively, owing to each of the Lenders.  To such end all the Lenders shall make appropriate adjustments among themselves (by the resale of participations sold or otherwise) if such payment is rescinded or must otherwise be restored.
 
(c)           Consent by Borrower.  Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing such a participation (or direct interest) may exercise all rights of set-off, banker’s lien, counterclaim or similar rights with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct holder of Loans or other amounts (as the case may be) owing to such Lender in the amount of such participation.
 
(d)           Rights of Lenders; Bankruptcy.  Nothing contained herein shall require any Lender to exercise any such right or shall affect the right of any Lender to exercise, and retain the benefits of exercising, any such right with respect to any other indebtedness or obligation of Borrower.  If, under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, any Lender receives a secured claim in lieu of a set-off to which this Section 2.7(4) applies, such Lender shall, to the extent practicable, exercise its rights in respect of such secured claim in a manner consistent with the rights of the Lenders entitled under this Section 2.7(4) to share in the benefits of any recovery on such secured claim.
 
 
(e)           GECC Sole Lender.  Notwithstanding any provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, it is acknowledged and agreed that GECC will be the Administrative Agent and sole Lender during the term of the Loans.
 

Section 2.8                                Yield Protection; Etc.
 
(1)           Additional Costs.
 
(a)           Costs of Making or Maintaining Eurodollar Loans.  Borrower shall pay directly to each Lender from time to time such amounts as such Lender may determine to be necessary to compensate such Lender for any costs that such Lender determines are attributable to its making or maintaining of any Eurodollar Loans or its obligation to make any Eurodollar Loans hereunder, or any reduction in any amount receivable by such Lender hereunder in respect of any of such Loans or such obligation (such increases in costs and reductions in amounts receivable being herein called “Additional Costs”), resulting from any Regulatory Change that:
 
(i)           shall subject any Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office for any of such Loans) to any new or increased tax, duty or other charge in respect of such Loans or its Note or changes the basis of taxation of any amounts payable to such Lender under this Agreement or its Note in respect of any of such Loans (excluding income, franchise, gross receipts or similar taxes and changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income of such Lender or of such Applicable Lending Office by the jurisdiction in which such Lender has its principal office or such Applicable Lending Office); or
 
(ii)           imposes or modifies any reserve, special deposit or similar requirements (other than the Reserve Requirement used in the determination of the Adjusted Libor Rate for any Interest Period for such Loan) relating to any extensions of credit or other assets of, or any deposits with or other liabilities of, such Lender (including, without limitation, any of such Loans or any deposits referred to in the definition of “Libor Base Rate”), or any commitment of such Lender (including, without limitation, the Commitment of such Lender hereunder); or
 
(iii)           imposes any other condition affecting this Agreement or its Note (or any of such extensions of credit or liabilities) or its Commitment.
 
If any Lender requests compensation from Borrower under this paragraph (a), Borrower may, by notice to such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), suspend the obligation of such Lender thereafter to make or Continue Eurodollar Loans, or to Convert Loans into Eurodollar Loans, until the Regulatory Change giving rise to such request ceases to be in effect (in which case the provisions of Section 2.8(4) shall be applicable), provided that such suspension shall not affect the right of such Lender to receive the compensation so requested.
 
(b)           Costs Attributable to Regulatory Change or Risk-Based Capital Guidelines.  Without limiting the effect of the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.8(1) (but without duplication), Borrower shall pay directly to each Lender from time to time on request such amounts as such Lender may determine to be necessary to compensate such Lender (or, without duplication, the bank holding company of which such Lender is a subsidiary) for any costs that it determines are attributable to the maintenance of the Eurodollar Loans hereunder by such Lender (or any Applicable Lending Office or such bank holding company), pursuant to any law or regulation or any interpretation, directive or request (whether or not having the force of law and whether or not failure to comply therewith would be unlawful) of any court or governmental or monetary authority (i) following any Regulatory Change or (ii) implementing any risk-based capital guideline or other requirement (whether or not having the force of law and whether or not the failure to comply therewith would be unlawful) hereafter issued by any government or governmental or supervisory authority implementing at the national level the Basle Accord, of capital in respect of its Commitment or Eurodollar Loans (such compensation to include, without limitation, an amount equal to any reduction of the rate of return on assets or equity of such Lender (or any Applicable Lending Office or such bank holding company) to a level below that which such Lender (or any Applicable Lending Office or such bank holding company) could have achieved but for such law, regulation, interpretation, directive or request).
 
(c)           Notification and Certification.  Each Lender shall notify Borrower of any event occurring after the date hereof entitling such Lender to compensation under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 2.8(1) as promptly as practicable, but in any event within 45 days, after such Lender obtains actual knowledge thereof; provided that (i) if any Lender fails to give such notice within 45 days after it obtains actual knowledge of such an event, such Lender shall, with respect to compensation payable pursuant to this Section 2.8(1) in respect of any costs resulting from such event, only be entitled to payment under this Section 2.8(1) for costs incurred from and after the date 45 days prior to the date that such Lender does give such notice and (ii) each Lender will designate a different Applicable Lending Office for the Loans of such Lender affected by such event if such designation will avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such compensation and will not, in the sole opinion of such Lender, be disadvantageous to such Lender, except that such Lender (if not a United Stated Person) shall have no obligation to designate an Applicable Lending Office located in the United States of America.  Each Lender will furnish to Borrower a certificate setting forth the basis and amount of each request by such Lender for compensation under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 2.8(1).  Determinations and allocations by any Lender for purposes of this Section 2.8(1) of the effect of any Regulatory Change pursuant to paragraph (a) of this Section 2.8(1), or of the effect of capital maintained pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 2.8(1), on its costs or rate of return of maintaining Loans or its obligation to make Loans, or on amounts receivable by it in respect of Loans, and of the amounts required to compensate such Lender under this Section 2.8(1), shall be conclusive absent manifest error, provided that such determinations and allocations are made on a reasonable basis.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, it shall be a condition to the Borrower’s obligation to pay compensation under this Section 2.8(1) that such compensation requirements are also being imposed on substantially all other similar classes or categories of commercial loans or commitments of such Lender similarly affected by the Regulatory Change and the other guidelines and requirements referred to in this Section 2.8(1).
 
(2)           Limitation on Types of Loans.  Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if, on or prior to the determination of the Libor Base Rate for any Interest Period for any Eurodollar Loan:
 
(a)           after making reasonable efforts, the Administrative Agent determines, which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error, that, as a result of circumstances arising after the Closing Date, quotations of interest rates for the relevant deposits referred to in the definition of Libor Base Rate are not being provided in the relevant amounts or for the relevant maturities for purposes of determining rates of interest for Eurodollar Loans as provided herein; or
 
(b)           the Majority Lenders determine, which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and notify the Administrative Agent that, as a result of circumstances arising after the Closing Date, the relevant rates of interest referred to in the definition of Libor Base Rate upon the basis of which the rate of interest for Eurodollar Loans for such Interest Period is to be determined are not likely adequately to cover the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining Eurodollar Loans for such Interest Period;
 
then the Administrative Agent shall give Borrower and each Lender prompt notice thereof and, so long as such condition remains in effect, the Lenders shall be under no obligation to make additional Eurodollar Loans, to Continue Eurodollar Loans or to Convert Loans of any other Type into Eurodollar Loans, and Borrower shall, on the last day(s) of the then current Interest Period(s) for the outstanding Eurodollar Loans, either prepay such Loans or such Loans shall be automatically Converted into Alternate Base Rate Loans.
 
(3)           Illegality.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in the event that it becomes unlawful for any Lender or its Applicable Lending Office to honor its obligation to make or maintain Eurodollar Loans hereunder (and, in the sole opinion of such Lender, the designation of a different Applicable Lending Office would either not avoid such unlawfulness or would be disadvantageous to such Lender), then such Lender shall promptly notify Borrower thereof (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) and such Lender’s obligation to make or Continue, or to Convert Loans of any other Type into, Eurodollar Loans shall be suspended until such time as such Lender may again make and maintain Eurodollar Loans (in which case the provisions of Section 2.8(4) shall be applicable).
 
(4)           Treatment of Affected Loans.  If the obligation of any Lender to make Eurodollar Loans or to Continue, or to Convert Alternate Base Rate Loans into, Eurodollar Loans shall be suspended pursuant to Section 2.8(1) or 2.8(3), such Lender’s Loans shall be automatically Converted into Alternate Base Rate Loans on the last day(s) of the then current Interest Period(s) for Loans (or, in the case of a Conversion resulting from a circumstance described in Section 2.8(3), on such earlier date as such Lender may specify to Borrower with a copy to the Administrative Agent) and, unless and until such Lender gives notice as provided below that the circumstances specified in Section 2.8(1) or 2.8(3) that gave rise to such Conversion no longer exist:
 
(a)           to the extent that such Lender’s Loans have been so Converted, all payments and prepayments of principal that would otherwise be applied to such Lender’s Loans shall be applied instead to its Alternate Base Rate Loans; and
 
(b)           all Loans that would otherwise be made or Continued by such Lender as Eurodollar Loans shall be made or Continued instead as Alternate Base Rate Loans, and all Loans of such Lender that would otherwise be Converted into Eurodollar Loans shall remain as Alternate Base Rate Loans.
 
If such Lender gives notice to Borrower with a copy to the Administrative Agent that the circumstances specified in Section 2.8(1) or 2.8(3) that gave rise to the Conversion of such Lender’s Loans pursuant to this Section 2.8(4) no longer exist (which such Lender agrees to do promptly upon such circumstances ceasing to exist) at a time when Eurodollar Loans made by other Lenders are outstanding, such Lender’s Alternate Base Rate Loans shall be automatically Converted, on the first day(s) of the next succeeding Interest Period(s) for such outstanding Eurodollar Loans, to the extent necessary so that, after giving effect thereto, all Alternate Base Rate Loans and Eurodollar Loans are allocated among the Lenders ratably (as to principal amounts, Types and Interest Periods) in accordance with their respective Commitments.
 
(5)           Compensation.  Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for account of each Lender, upon the request of such Lender through the Administrative Agent, such amount or amounts as shall be sufficient (in the reasonable opinion of such Lender) to compensate it for any actual out-of-pocket  cost or expense that such Lender determines is attributable to any payment, prepayment or Conversion of a Eurodollar Loan made by such Lender for any reason (including, without limitation, the acceleration of the Loans pursuant to the Administrative Agent’s or the Lenders’ rights referred to in Article 10) on a date other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan.
 
Without limiting the effect of the preceding sentence, such compensation shall include an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest that otherwise would have accrued on the principal amount so paid, prepaid, Converted or not borrowed for the period from the date of such payment, prepayment, Conversion or failure to borrow to the last day of the then current Interest Period for such Loan (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, the Interest Period for such Loan that would have commenced on the date specified for such borrowing) at the applicable rate of interest for such Loan provided for herein over (ii) the amount of interest that otherwise would have accrued on such principal amount at a rate per annum equal to the interest component of the amount such Lender would have bid in the London interbank market for Dollar deposits of leading banks in amounts comparable to such principal amount and with maturities comparable to such period (as reasonably determined by such Lender), or if such Lender shall cease to make such bids, the equivalent rate, as reasonably determined by such Lender, derived from Page 3750 of the Dow Jones Markets (Telerate) Service or other publicly available source as described in the definition of Libor Base Rate.

(a)           Gross-up for Deduction or Withholding of United States Taxes.  Borrower agrees to pay to each Lender that is not a United States Person such additional amounts as are necessary in order that the net payment of any amount due to such non-United States Person hereunder after deduction for or withholding in respect of any United States Taxes imposed with respect to such payment (or in lieu thereof, payment of such United States Taxes by such non-United States Person), will not be less than the amount stated herein to be then due and payable, provided that the foregoing obligation to pay such additional amounts shall not apply:
 
(i)           to any payment to any Lender hereunder unless such Lender is, on the date hereof (or on the date it becomes a Lender hereunder as provided in Section 12.24(2)) and on the date of any change in the Applicable Lending Office of such Lender, either entitled to submit a Form W-8BEN (relating to such Lender and entitling it to a complete exemption from withholding on all interest to be received by it hereunder in respect of the Loans) or Form W-8ECI (relating to all interest to be received by such Lender hereunder in respect of the Loans), or
 
(ii)           to any United States Taxes imposed solely by reason of the failure by such non-United States Person to comply with applicable certification, information, documentation or other reporting requirements concerning the nationality, residence, identity or connections with the United States of America of such non-United States Person if such compliance is required by statute or regulation of the United States of America as a precondition to relief or exemption from such United States Taxes.
 
For the purposes hereof, (A) “United States Person” means a citizen, national or resident of the United States of America, a corporation, limited liability company, partnership or other entity created or organized in or under any laws of the United States of America or any State thereof, or any estate or trust that is subject to Federal income taxation regardless of the source of its income, (B) “United States Taxes” means any present or future tax, assessment or other charge or levy imposed by or on behalf of the United States of America or any taxing authority thereof or therein, (C) ”Form W-8BEN” means Form W-8BEN of the Department of the Treasury of the United States of America and (D) ”Form W-8ECI” means Form W-8ECI of the Department of the Treasury of the United States of America.  Each of the Forms referred to in the foregoing clauses (C) and (D) shall include such successor and related forms as may from time to time be adopted by the relevant taxing authorities of the United States of America to document a claim to which such Form relates.

(7)           Replacement of Lenders.  If any Lender requests compensation pursuant to Section 2.8(1) or 2.8(6), or any Lender’s obligation to Continue Loans of any Type, or to Convert Loans of any Type into the other Type of Loan, shall be suspended pursuant to Section 2.8(2) or 2.8(3) (any such Lender requesting such compensation, or whose obligations are so suspended, being herein called a “Requesting Lender”), Borrower, upon three Business Days notice, may require that such Requesting Lender transfer all of its right, title and interest under this Agreement and such Requesting Lender’s Note to any bank or other financial institution (a “Proposed Lender”) identified by Borrower that is satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (i) if such Proposed Lender agrees to assume all of the obligations of such Requesting Lender hereunder, and to purchase all of such Requesting Lender’s Loans hereunder for consideration equal to the aggregate outstanding principal amount of such Requesting Lender’s Loans, together with interest thereon to the date of such purchase (to the extent not paid by Borrower), and satisfactory arrangements are made for payment to such Requesting Lender of all other amounts accrued and payable hereunder to such Requesting Lender as of the date of such transfer (including any fees accrued hereunder and any amounts that would be payable under Section 2.8(5) as if all of such Requesting Lender’s Loans were being prepaid in full on such date) and (ii) if such Requesting Lender has requested compensation pursuant to Section 2.8(1) or 2.8(6), such Proposed Lender’s aggregate requested compensation, if any, pursuant to Section 2.8(1) or 2.8(6) with respect to such Requesting Lender’s Loans is lower than that of the Requesting Lender.  Subject to the provisions of Section 12.24(2), such Proposed Lender shall be a “Lender” for all purposes hereunder.  Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of Borrower hereunder, the agreements of Borrower contained in Sections 2.8(1), 2.8(6) and 12.5 (without duplication of any payments made to such Requesting Lender by Borrower or the Proposed Lender) shall survive for the benefit of such Requesting Lender under this Section 2.8(7) with respect to the time prior to such replacement.

INSURANCE AND CONDEMNATION

 
Section 3.1                                Insurance.  Borrower shall maintain insurance as follows:
 
(1)           Casualty; Business Interruption.  Borrower shall keep the Projects insured against damage by fire and the other hazards covered by a standard extended coverage and all-risk insurance policy for the full insurable value thereof on a replacement cost claim recovery basis (without reduction for depreciation or co-insurance and without any exclusions or reduction of policy limits for acts of domestic and foreign terrorism or other specified action/inaction), and shall maintain boiler and machinery, earthquake, acts of domestic and foreign terrorism endorsement coverage and such other casualty insurance as reasonably required by the Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent reserves the right to require from time to time the following additional insurance:  flood, windstorm and/or building law or ordinance.  Borrower shall keep the Projects insured against loss by flood if such Project is located currently or at any time in the future in an area identified by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as an area having special flood hazards and in which flood insurance has been made available under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973 or the National Flood Insurance Reform Act of 1994 (as such acts may from time to time be amended) in an amount at least equal to the lesser of (a) the Allocated Loan Amount for such Projects or (b) the maximum limit of coverage available under said acts.  Any such flood insurance policy shall be issued in accordance with the requirements and current guidelines of the Federal Insurance Administration.  Borrower shall maintain business interruption insurance, including use and occupancy, rental income loss and extra expense, against all periods covered by Borrower’s property insurance for a limit equal to twelve (12) calendar months’ exposure, all without any exclusions or reduction of policy limits for acts of domestic and foreign terrorism or other specified action/inaction.  Borrower shall maintain earthquake insurance and terrorism coverage in such amounts and with such coverages and deductibles as are then being maintained with respect to institutionally-owned “Class A” office buildings in the market where the properties are located.  Borrower shall not maintain any separate or additional insurance which is contributing in the event of loss unless it is properly endorsed and otherwise satisfactory to the Administrative Agent in all respects.  The proceeds of insurance paid on account of any damage or destruction to the Projects in excess of the Restoration Threshold shall be paid to the Administrative Agent to be applied as provided in Section 3.2.
 
(2)           Liability.  Borrower shall maintain (a) commercial general liability insurance with respect to the Projects providing for limits of liability of not less than $5,000,000 for both injury to or death of a person and for property damage per occurrence; (b) worker’s compensation insurance to statutory limits (but in no event less than $1,000,000), and employer’s liability insurance covering employees at the Projects employed by Borrower or Manager (to the extent required, and in the amounts required by applicable laws); (c) umbrella liability on a following-form basis with limits of $1,000,000 per occurrence and annual aggregate; (d) at all times during which structural construction, repairs or alterations are being made with respect to the improvements, and only if or to the extent such coverage is not provided through the other insurance maintained by or for the benefit of the Borrower, builder’s risk insurance, as applicable, in amounts and with coverages reasonably required by Administrative Agent; and (e) other liability insurance as reasonably required by the Administrative Agent.
 
(3)           Form and Quality.  All insurance policies shall be endorsed in form and substance acceptable to the Administrative Agent to name the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Lenders) as an additional insured, loss payee or mortgagee thereunder, as its interest may appear, with loss payable to the Administrative Agent, without contribution, under a standard New York (or local equivalent) mortgagee clause.  All such insurance policies and endorsements shall be fully paid for, shall be issued by appropriately licensed insurance companies acceptable to the Administrative Agent with a rating of “A-VII” or better as established by A.M. Best’s Rating Guide, and shall be in such form, and shall contain such provisions, deductibles (with no increased deductible for acts of terrorism or other specified action/inaction) and expiration dates, as are acceptable to the Administrative Agent.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the insurance carried by Borrower as of the Closing Date is hereby accepted by Administrative Agent as satisfying the requirements of this Section 3.1, absent any changes in circumstances; provided, however, that Borrower shall not reduce any existing insurance coverages (i) with respect to earthquake insurance and terrorism coverage to less than such amounts and such coverages and deductibles as are then being maintained with respect to institutionally-owned “Class A” office buildings in the market where the Projects are located, or (ii) to include insurance carriers rated lower than A(Minus)/VII (7), or (iii) to have rental loss insurance for a period shorter than one year.  Each policy shall provide that such policy may not be canceled or materially changed except upon thirty (30) days' prior written notice of intention of non-renewal, cancellation or material change to the Administrative Agent and that no act or thing done by Borrower shall invalidate any policy as against the Administrative Agent or any Lender.  Blanket policies shall be permitted only if the Administrative Agent receives appropriate endorsements and/or duplicate policies containing the Administrative Agent’s right to continue (for the benefit of the Lenders) coverage on a pro rata pass-through basis and that coverage will not be affected by any loss on other properties covered by the policies.  If Borrower fails to maintain insurance in compliance with this Section 3.1, the Administrative Agent may obtain such insurance and pay the premium therefor and Borrower shall, on demand, reimburse the Administrative Agent for all expenses incurred in connection therewith.
 
(4)           Assignment.  Borrower shall assign Borrower’s interest in the policies or proofs of insurance to the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Lenders), in such manner and form that the Administrative Agent and its successors and assigns shall at all times have and hold the same as security for the payment of the Loan.  Borrower shall deliver copies of all original policies certified to the Administrative Agent by the insurance company or authorized agent as being true copies, together with the endorsements required hereunder.  If Borrower elects to obtain any insurance for the Projects which is not required under this Agreement all related insurance policies shall be endorsed in compliance with Section 3.1(3), and such additional insurance shall not be canceled without prior notice to the Administrative Agent.  From time to time upon the Administrative Agent’s request, Borrower shall identify to the Administrative Agent all insurance maintained by Borrower with respect to the Projects.  The proceeds of insurance policies coming into the possession of the Administrative Agent shall not be deemed trust funds, and the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to apply such proceeds as herein provided.
 
(5)           Adjustments.  Borrower shall give prompt written notice of any loss exceeding $1,000,000 to the insurance carrier and to the Administrative Agent.  Without the Administrative Agent’s prior consent which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, Borrower shall not agree to any insurance adjustment, compromise or settlement in excess of $10,000,000, it being understood that Borrower may adjust, compromise or settle claims, and directly collect the insurance proceeds, for claims not in excess of $10,000,000.  With respect to claims in excess of $10,000,000, the Administrative Agent may participate in any such proceeding (not to the exclusion of Borrower), and may make proof of loss, adjust and compromise any such claim under Borrower’s insurance policies, and  appear in and prosecute any action arising from such insurance policies, to collect and receive insurance proceeds on account of such claim, and to deduct therefrom the Administrative Agent’s reasonable expenses incurred in the collection of such proceeds.  Nothing contained in this Section 3.1(5), however, shall require the Administrative Agent to incur any expense or take any action hereunder.
 
Section 3.2                                Use and Application of Insurance Proceeds. The Administrative Agent shall apply (or permit Borrower to apply) insurance proceeds to costs of restoring a Project or the Loans as follows:
 
(1)           if the loss is less than or equal to the Restoration Threshold, Borrower may directly collect and apply the insurance proceeds for restoration provided (a) no Event of Default or Potential Default exists, and (b) Borrower promptly commences and is diligently pursuing restoration of such Project;
 
(2)           if the loss exceeds the Restoration Threshold the Administrative Agent shall apply the insurance proceeds to restoration provided that at all times during such restoration (a) no Event of Default or Potential Default exists; (b) the Administrative Agent determines that there are sufficient funds available to restore and repair the Project to its condition prior to the casualty or to such other condition approved by the Administrative Agent; (c) the Administrative Agent determines that the Net Operating Income of the subject Project during restoration together with the Net Operating Income of the other Projects will be sufficient to pay Debt Service;  (d) the Administrative Agent determines that restoration and repair of the Project to its condition prior to the casualty or to such other  condition approved by the Administrative Agent will be completed within six months after the date of loss or casualty and in any event thirty (30)  days prior to the Maturity Date; (e) Borrower promptly commences and is diligently pursuing restoration of the Project; and (f) the Project after the restoration will be in compliance with and permitted under all applicable zoning, building and land use laws, rules, regulations and ordinances;
 
(3)           if the conditions set forth above are not satisfied, in the Administrative Agent’s sole but reasonable discretion, the Administrative Agent may (subject to the approval of the Majority Lenders) apply any insurance proceeds it may receive to the payment of the amounts owing under the Loan Documents in such order and manner as the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion determines (and provided there is a  concomitant reduction in the Allocated Loan Amount for such Project) or allow all or a portion of such proceeds to be used for the restoration of the Project; and
 
(4)           insurance proceeds applied to restoration will be disbursed on receipt of satisfactory plans and specifications, contracts and subcontracts, schedules, budgets, lien waivers and architects’ certificates, and otherwise in accordance with prudent commercial construction lending practices for construction loan advances, including, as applicable, the advance conditions under Schedule 2.1.  Any insurance proceeds remaining after payment of all restoration costs shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to the outstanding principal balance of the Loans or, at the Administrative Agent’s sole option, remitted to Borrower.
 
Section 3.3                                Condemnation Awards.  Borrower shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of the institution of any proceeding for the condemnation or other taking of the Project or any portion thereof.  The Administrative Agent may participate in any such proceeding and Borrower will deliver to the Administrative Agent all instruments necessary or required by the Administrative Agent to permit such participation.  Without the Administrative Agent’s prior consent (subject to the approval of the Majority Lenders), Borrower (1) shall not agree to any compensation or award, and (2) shall not take any action or fail to take any action which would cause the compensation to be determined.  All awards and compensation for the taking or purchase in lieu of condemnation of the Project or any part thereof are hereby assigned to and shall be paid to the Administrative Agent.  Borrower authorizes the Administrative Agent to collect and receive such awards and compensation, to give proper receipts and acquittances therefor, and in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion (which the Administrative Agent shall exercise at the direction of the Majority Lenders) to apply the same toward the payment of the Loans (provided there is a concomitant reduction in the Allocated Loan Amount for such Project), notwithstanding that the Loans may not then be due and payable, or to the restoration of the Project; however, if the award is less than or equal to the $50,000, and Borrower requests that such proceeds be used for non-structural site improvements (such as landscape, driveway, walkway and parking area repairs) required to be made as a result of such condemnation, the Administrative Agent will apply the award to such restoration in accordance with disbursement procedures applicable to insurance proceeds provided there exists no Potential Default or Event of Default.  Borrower, upon request by the Administrative Agent, shall execute all instruments requested to confirm the assignment of the awards and compensation to the Administrative Agent, free and clear of all Liens.

(3)           If the Administrative Agent has a reasonable suspicion that a release of Hazardous Materials has occurred at or near any Project after the Closing Date, Borrower shall provide to the Administrative Agent, at Borrower’s expense promptly upon the written request of the Administrative Agent , a Site Assessment or, if required by the Administrative Agent, an update to any existing Site Assessment, to assess the presence or absence of any Hazardous Materials and the potential costs in connection with abatement, cleanup or removal of any Hazardous Materials found on, under, at or within any Project.   
 
Section 4.3                                Allocation of Risks and Indemnity.  As between Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, all risk of loss associated with non-compliance with Environmental Laws, or with the presence of any Hazardous Material at, upon, within, contiguous to or otherwise affecting any Project, shall lie solely with Borrower.  Accordingly, Borrower shall bear all risks and costs associated with any loss (including any loss in value attributable to Hazardous Materials), damage or liability therefrom, including all costs of removal of Hazardous Materials or other remediation required by  applicable Environmental Law.  Borrower shall at all times indemnify, defend and hold the Administrative Agent and the Lenders harmless from and against any and all claims, suits, actions, debts, damages, losses, liabilities, litigations, judgments, charges, costs and expenses (including reasonable costs of defense), of any nature whatsoever proffered or incurred by the Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders, whether as mortgagee or beneficiary under the Mortgage, as mortgagee in possession, or as successor-in-interest to Borrower by foreclosure deed or deed in lieu of foreclosure, and whether based in contract, tort, implied or express warranty, strict liability, criminal or civil statute or common law, including those arising from the joint, concurrent or comparative negligence of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, under or on account of the Environmental Laws, including the assertion of any Lien thereunder, with respect to:  (1) a breach of any representation, warranty or covenant of Borrower contained in this Article 4; (2) any acts performed by the Administrative Agent or any Lender pursuant to the provisions of this Article 4; (3) any discharge of Hazardous Materials, the threat of discharge of any Hazardous Materials or the storage or presence of any Hazardous Materials affecting any Project whether or not the same originates or emanates from such Project or any contiguous real estate, including any loss of value of such Project as a result of the foregoing (but Borrower shall not be responsible for any such loss or diminution in value if the Loans have been repaid); (4) any costs of removal or remedial action incurred by the United States Government or any costs incurred by any other Person or damages from injury to, destruction of, or loss of natural resources including reasonable costs of assessing such injury, destruction or loss incurred pursuant to any Environmental Laws; (5) liability for personal injury or property damage arising under any statutory or common law tort theory, including without limitation damages assessed for the maintenance of a public or private nuisance or for the carrying on of an abnormally dangerous activity at, upon, under or within any Project; and/or (6) any other environmental matter affecting any Project within the jurisdiction of the Environmental Protection Agency, any other federal agency or any state or local environmental agency.  The foregoing notwithstanding, Borrower shall not be liable under such indemnification to the extent such loss, liability, damage, claim, suits, actions, debts, damages, litigations, judgments, charges, cost or expense results solely from the Administrative Agent’s or any Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.  Borrower’s obligations under this Section 4.4 shall arise upon the discovery of the presence of any Hazardous Material subject to indemnification hereunder, whether or not the Environmental Protection Agency, any other federal agency or any state or local environmental agency has taken or threatened any action in connection with the presence of any Hazardous Material and shall continue notwithstanding the repayment of the Loans or any transfer or sale of any right, title and interest in the Project (by foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, , Borrower shall not be liable under this Section 4.3 to the extent such loss, liability, damage, claim, suits, actions, debts, damages, litigations, judgments, charges, cost or expense arise out of, relate to or result from either (A) Hazardous Materials existing on, in, under or about any of the Projects as of the Closing Date or (B)  events or conditions caused or created by the Administrative Agent and first existing after the Administrative Agent acquires title to the Project by foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu thereof..

Section 12.3                                Limitation on Interest.  It is the intention of the parties hereto to conform strictly to applicable usury laws.  Accordingly, all agreements between Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders with respect to the Loans are hereby expressly limited so that in no event, whether by reason of acceleration of maturity or otherwise, shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid to the Administrative Agent or any Lender or charged by any Lender for the use, forbearance or detention of the money to be lent hereunder or otherwise, exceed the maximum amount allowed by law.  If the Loans would be usurious under applicable law (including the laws of the State and the laws of the United States of America), then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Loan Documents: (1) the aggregate of all consideration which constitutes interest under applicable law that is contracted for, taken, reserved, charged or received under the Loan Documents shall under no circumstances exceed the maximum amount of interest allowed by applicable law, and any excess shall be credited on the Notes by the holders thereof (or, if the Notes have been paid in full, refunded to Borrower); and (2) if maturity is accelerated by reason of an election by the Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms hereof, or in the event of any prepayment, then any consideration which constitutes interest may never include more than the maximum amount allowed by applicable law.  In such case, excess interest, if any, provided for in the Loan Documents or otherwise, to the extent permitted by applicable law, shall be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread from the date of advance until payment in full so that the actual rate of interest is uniform through the term hereof.  If such amortization, proration, allocation and spreading is not permitted under applicable law, then such excess interest shall be cancelled automatically as of the date of such acceleration or prepayment and, if theretofore paid, shall be credited on the Notes (or, if the Notes have been paid in full, refunded to Borrower).  The terms and provisions of this Section 12.3 shall control and supersede every other provision of the Loan Documents.  The Loan Documents are contracts made under and shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State in accordance with Section 12.21, except that if at any time the laws of the United States of America permit the Lenders to contract for, take, reserve, charge or receive a higher rate of interest than is allowed by the laws of the State (whether such federal laws directly so provide or refer to the law of any state), then such federal laws shall to such extent govern as to the rate of interest which the Lenders may contract for, take, reserve, charge or receive under the Loan Documents.
 
Section 12.4                                Invalid Provisions.  If any provision of any Loan Document is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be fully severable; the Loan Documents shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision had never comprised a part thereof; the remaining provisions thereof shall remain in full effect and shall not be affected by the illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision or by its severance therefrom; and in lieu of such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision there shall be added automatically as a part of such Loan Document a provision as similar in terms to such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision as may be possible to be legal, valid and enforceable.
 
Section 12.5                                Reimbursement of Expenses.  Borrower shall pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders on demand of the applicable party for: (1) the reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the negotiation, documentation and closing of the Loans; and (2) all amounts expended, advanced or incurred by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to collect the Notes, or to enforce the rights of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to defend or assert the rights and claims of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under the Loan Documents or with respect to the Project (by litigation or other proceedings), which amounts under this clause (2) will include all court costs, attorneys’ fees and expenses, fees of auditors and accountants, and investigation expenses as may be incurred by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in connection with any such matters (whether or not litigation is instituted), together with interest at the Default Rate on each such amount from the date of disbursement until the date of reimbursement to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders unless paid within 10 Business Days after demand therefor, all of which shall constitute part of the Loans and shall be secured by the Loan Documents.
 
Section 12.6                                Approvals; Third Parties; Conditions.  All approval rights retained or exercised by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders with respect to leases, contracts, plans, studies and other matters are solely to facilitate the Lenders’ credit underwriting, and shall not be deemed or construed as a determination that the Lenders have passed on the adequacy thereof for any other purpose and may not be relied upon by Borrower or any other Person.  This Agreement is for the sole and exclusive use of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and Borrower and may not be enforced, nor relied upon, by any Person other than the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and Borrower.  All conditions of the obligations of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder, including the obligation to make advances, are imposed solely and exclusively for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, their successors and assigns, and no other Person shall have standing to require satisfaction of such conditions or be entitled to assume that the Lenders will refuse to make advances in the absence of strict compliance with any or all of such conditions, and no other Person shall, under any circumstances, be deemed to be a beneficiary of such conditions, any and all of which may be freely waived in whole or in part by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders at any time in their sole discretion.
 
Section 12.7                                Lenders and Administrative Agent Not in Control; No Partnership.  None of the covenants or other provisions contained in this Agreement shall, or shall be deemed to, give the Administrative Agent or any Lender the right or power to exercise control over the affairs or management of Borrower, the power of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders being limited to the rights to exercise the remedies referred to in the Loan Documents.  The relationship between Borrower and the Lenders is, and at all times shall remain, solely that of debtor and creditor.  No covenant or provision of the Loan Documents is intended, nor shall it be deemed or construed, to create a partnership, joint venture, agency or common interest in profits or income between the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and Borrower or to create an equity in the Project in the Administrative Agent or any Lender.  The Administrative Agent and the Lenders neither undertake nor assume any responsibility or duty to Borrower or to any other person with respect to the Project or the Loans, except as expressly provided in the Loan Documents; and notwithstanding any other provision of the Loan Documents: (1)  neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender is, nor shall be construed as, a partner, joint venturer, alter ego, manager, controlling person or other business associate or participant of any kind of Borrower or its stockholders, members, or partners and neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender intends to ever assume such status; (2) no Lender or the Administrative Agent shall in any event be liable for any Debts, expenses or losses incurred or sustained by Borrower; and (3) no Lender or the Administrative Agent shall be deemed responsible for or a participant in any acts, omissions or decisions of Borrower or its stockholders, members, or partners.  The Administrative Agent, the Lenders and Borrower disclaim any intention to create any partnership, joint venture, agency or common interest in profits or income between the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and Borrower, or to create an equity in the Project in the Administrative Agent or any Lender, or any sharing of liabilities, losses, costs or expenses.

Section 12.11                                Waivers.  No course of dealing on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, their officers, employees, consultants or agents, nor any failure or delay by the Administrative Agent or any Lender with respect to exercising any right, power or privilege of the Administrative Agent or any Lender under any of the Loan Documents, shall operate as a waiver thereof.

Section 12.19                                WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.  TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, BORROWER, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH LENDER HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION BASED HEREON, ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENT (WHETHER VERBAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTION OF EITHER PARTY OR ANY EXERCISE BY ANY PARTY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS UNDER THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR IN ANY WAY RELATING TO THE LOANS OR THE PROJECTS (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY ACTION TO RESCIND OR CANCEL THIS AGREEMENT, AND ANY CLAIM OR DEFENSE ASSERTING THAT THIS AGREEMENT WAS FRAUDULENTLY INDUCED OR IS OTHERWISE VOID OR VOIDABLE).  THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH LENDER TO ENTER THIS AGREEMENT.
 
Section 12.20                                Waiver of Punitive or Consequential Damages.  None of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders or Borrower shall be responsible or liable to the other or to any other Person for any punitive, exemplary or consequential damages which may be alleged as a result of the Loans or the transaction contemplated hereby, including any breach or other default by any party hereto.  Borrower represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders that as of the Closing Date neither Borrower nor any Borrower Party has any claims against the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders in connection with the Loan.
 
Section 12.21                                GOVERNING LAW.  THIS AGREEMENT, THE NOTES AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS ARE TO BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA (AS PERMITTED BY SECTION 1646.5 OF THE CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE OR ANY SIMILAR SUCCESSOR PROVISION), WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO ANY CHOICE OF LAW RULE THAT WOULD CAUSE THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANY JURISDICTION OTHER THAN THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA TO GOVERN THE RIGHTS AND DUTIES OF THE PARTIES.
 
Section 12.22                                Entire Agreement.  This Agreement and the other Loan Documents embody the entire agreement and understanding between the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and Borrower and supersede all prior agreements and understandings between such parties relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof, including any commitment letter (if any) issued by any Lender with respect to the Loans.  Accordingly, the Loan Documents may not be contradicted by evidence of prior, contemporaneous, or subsequent oral agreements of the parties.  There are no unwritten oral agreements between the parties.  If any conflict or inconsistency exists between this Agreement and any of the other Loan Documents, the terms of this Agreement shall control.
 
Section 12.23                                Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which shall constitute one document.
 
Section 12.24                                Assignments and Participations.
 
(1)           Assignments by Borrower.  Borrower may not assign any of its rights or obligations hereunder or under the Notes without the prior consent of all of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent.
 
(2)           Assignments by the Lenders.  Each Lender may assign any of its Loans, its Note and its Commitment (but only with the consent of the Administrative Agent); provided that:
 
(a)           no such consent by the Administrative Agent shall be required in the case of any assignment by any Lender to another Lender or an affiliate of such Lender or such other Lender;
 
(b)           except to the extent the Administrative Agent shall otherwise consent, any such partial assignment (other than to another Lender or an affiliate of a Lender) shall be in an amount at least equal to $10,000,000;
 
(c)           each such assignment (including an assignment to another Lender or an affiliate of a Lender) by a Lender of its Loans or Commitment shall be made in such manner so that the same portion of its Loans and Commitment is assigned to the respective assignee;
 
(d)           subject to the applicable Lender’s compliance with the provisions of clauses (b) and (c) above, the Administrative Agent’s consent to an assignment shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned if (i) in the reasonable judgment of the Administrative Agent, such assignment is made to a reputable institutional investor with substantial experience in real estate lending and originating mortgage loans similar to the Loans, and a financial net worth of at least $100,000,000, (ii) such assignment is first offered to the Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms and conditions a separate agency agreement among the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and (iii) the provisions of clause (e) have been satisfied; and
 
(e)           upon execution and delivery by the assignee (even if already a Lender) to Borrower and the Administrative Agent of an Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which such assignee agrees to become a “Lender” hereunder (if not already a Lender) having the Commitment and Loans specified in such instrument, and upon consent thereto by the Administrative Agent to the extent required above, the assignee shall have, to the extent of such assignment (unless otherwise consented to by the Administrative Agent), the obligations, rights and benefits of a Lender hereunder holding the Commitment and Loans (or portions thereof) assigned to it (in addition to the Commitment and Loans, if any, theretofore held by such assignee) and the assigning Lender shall, to the extent of such assignment, be released from the Commitment (or portion thereof) so assigned.  Upon each such assignment the assigning Lender shall pay the Administrative Agent a processing and recording fee of $3,500 and  the reasonable fees and disbursements of the Administrative Agent’s counsel incurred in connection therewith.
 
(3)           Participations.  A Lender may sell or agree to sell to one or more other Persons (each a “Participant”) a participation in all or any part of any Loans held by it, or in its Commitment, provided that such Participant shall not have any rights or obligations under this Agreement or any Note or any other Loan Document (the Participant’s rights against such Lender in respect of such participation to be those set forth in the agreements executed by such Lender and the applicable Participant).  All amounts payable by Borrower to any Lender under Section 2.7 in respect of Loans held by it and its Commitment shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold or agreed to sell any participations in such Loans and Commitment, and as if such Lender were funding each of such Loans and Commitment in the same way that it is funding the portion of such Loans and Commitment in which no participations have been sold.  In no event shall a Lender that sells a participation agree with the Participant to take or refrain from taking any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document except that such Lender may agree with the Participant that it will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to (i) increase or extend the term of such Lender’s Commitment, (ii) extend the date fixed for the payment of principal of or interest on the related Loan or Loans or any portion of any fee hereunder payable to the Participant, (iii) reduce the amount of any such payment of principal, (iv) reduce the rate at which interest is payable thereon, or any fee hereunder payable to the Participant, to a level below the rate at which the Participant is entitled to receive such interest or fee or (v) consent to any modification, supplement or waiver hereof or of any of the other Loan Documents to the extent that the same, under Section 12.2, requires the consent of each Lender.
 
(4)           Certain Pledges.  In addition to the assignments and participations permitted under the foregoing provisions of this Section 12.24 (but without being subject thereto), any Lender may (without notice to Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and without payment of any fee) assign and pledge all or any portion of its Loans and its Note to any Federal Reserve Bank as collateral security pursuant to Regulation A and any operating circular issued by such Federal Reserve Bank, and such Loans and Note shall be fully transferable as provided therein.  No such assignment shall release the assigning Lender from its obligations hereunder.
 
(5)           Provision of Information to Assignees and Participants.  A Lender may furnish any information concerning Borrower or any of its Affiliates in the possession of such Lender from time to time to assignees and participants (including prospective assignees and participants), subject to Section 12.26.
 
(6)           No Assignments to Borrower or Affiliates.  Anything in this Section 12.24 to the contrary notwithstanding, no Lender may assign or participate any interest in any Loan held by it hereunder to Borrower or any of its Affiliates without the prior consent of each Lender.
 
Section 12.25                                Brokers. Borrower hereby represents to the Administrative Agent and each Lender that Borrower has not engaged any broker, underwriters, placement agent, or finder in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.  Borrower hereby agrees to pay any other fees and commissions due and payable to any broker engaged by Borrower in connection with the Loans and to indemnify and hold the Administrative Agent and each Lender harmless from and against any and all claims, liabilities, costs and expenses of any kind in any way relating to or arising from a claim by any broker engaged by Borrower that such Person acted on behalf of Borrower in connection with the transactions contemplated herein.
 
Section 12.26                                Confidential Information.  The Administrative Agent and each Lender and Participant agree to keep confidential any non-public information that any such Person may receive from the Borrower or otherwise discover with respect to the Borrower or the Borrower’s business pursuant to the Loan Documents or any investigation by any such Person thereunder (collectively "Confidential Information"), and not to use Confidential Information in order to compete with Borrower in Borrower’s markets and main line of business.  The foregoing shall not limit disclosures: (i) specifically and previously authorized in writing by the Borrower; (ii) to any actual or prospective assignee or participant of any such Person so long as such actual or prospective assignee or participant has agreed in writing to keep such Confidential Information confidential in accordance with, and not to use such Confidential Information in violation of, the terms of this Section 12.26; (iii) to legal counsel, accountants, auditors, environmental consultants, title insurance representatives and other professional advisors to each such Person so long as any such Person shall be informed in writing of the confidential nature of such Confidential Information and shall be directed to treat such Confidential Information confidentially and not to use such Confidential Information in violation of this Section 12.26; (iv) to regulatory officials having jurisdiction over any such Person; (v) as required by legal process or in connection with any action to enforce the obligations of the Borrower under the Loan Documents; and (vi) of information which has previously become publicly available through the actions or inactions of a third party not, to such Person’s knowledge, in breach of an obligation of confidentiality to the Borrower or which has become stale through the passage of time or other change in circumstances.

ARTICLE 14
 

 
THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

 
Section 14.1                                Appointment, Powers and Immunities.  The provisions of this Article 14 constitute agreements between the Administrative Agent and the Lenders.  Each Lender hereby appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to act as its agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents with such powers as are specifically delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of this Agreement and of the other Loan Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.  The Administrative Agent (which term as used in this sentence and in Section 14.5 and the first sentence of Section 14.6 shall include reference to its affiliates and its own and its affiliates’ officers, directors, employees and agents):
 
(1)           shall have no duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Agreement and in the other Loan Documents, and shall not by reason of this Agreement or any other Loan Document be a trustee for any Lender;
 
(2)           shall not be responsible to the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, or in any certificate or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by any of them under, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement, any Note or any other Loan Document or any other document referred to or provided for herein or therein or for any failure by Borrower or any other Person to perform any of its obligations hereunder or thereunder; and
 
(3)           shall not be responsible for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it hereunder or under any other Loan Document or under any other document or instrument referred to or provided for herein or therein or in connection herewith or therewith, except to the extent any such action taken or omitted violates the Administrative Agent’s standard of care set forth in the first sentence of Section 14.5.
 
The Administrative Agent may employ agents and attorneys-in-fact, and may delegate all or any part of its obligations hereunder, to third parties and shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any such agents, attorneys-in-fact or third parties selected by it in good faith.  The Administrative Agent may deem and treat the payee of a Note as the holder thereof for all purposes hereof unless and until a notice of the assignment or transfer thereof shall have been filed with the Administrative Agent.
 
Section 14.2                                Reliance by Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any certification, notice or other communication (including, without limitation, any thereof by telephone, telecopy, telegram or cable) reasonably believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by or on behalf of the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel, independent accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent.  As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the 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 the Majority Lenders, and such instructions of the Majority Lenders and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding on all of the Lenders.
 
Section 14.3                                Defaults.  The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of a Potential Default or Event of Default unless the Administrative Agent has received notice from a Lender or Borrower specifying such Potential Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default”.  In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice of the occurrence of a Potential Default or Event of Default, the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders.  The Administrative Agent shall (subject to Section 14.7) take such action with respect to such Potential Default or Event of Default and other matters relating to the Loans as shall be directed by the Lenders in accordance with a separate agreement entered into by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders.
 
Section 14.4                                Rights as a Lender.  With respect to GECC’s Commitment and the Loans made by it, GECC (and any successor acting as Administrative Agent) in its capacity as a Lender hereunder shall have the same rights and powers hereunder as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not acting as the Administrative Agent, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless the context otherwise indicates, include the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity.  GECC (and any successor acting as Administrative Agent) and its affiliates (including GECC) may (without having to account therefor to any Lender) lend money to, make investments in and generally engage in any kind of lending, trust or other business with Borrower (and any of its Affiliates) as if it were not acting as the Administrative Agent, and GECC and its affiliates (including GECC may accept fees and other consideration from Borrower for services in connection with this Agreement or otherwise without having to account for the same to the Lenders.
 
Section 14.5                                Standard of Care; Indemnification.  In performing its duties under the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent will exercise the same degree of care as GECC normally exercises in connection with real estate loans in which no syndication or participations are involved, but the Administrative Agent shall have no further responsibility to any Lender except as expressly provided herein and except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct which resulted in actual loss to such Lender, and, except to such extent, the Administrative Agent shall have no responsibility to any Lender for the failure by the Administrative Agent to comply with any of the Administrative Agent’s obligations to Borrower under the Loan Documents or otherwise.  The Lenders agree to indemnify the Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed under Section 12.5, but without limiting the obligations of Borrower under Section 12.5) ratably in accordance with the aggregate principal amount of the Loans held by the Lenders (or, if no Loans are at the time outstanding, ratably in accordance with their respective Commitments), for any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind and nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent (including by any Lender) arising out of or by reason of any investigation in or in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any other documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (including, without limitation, the costs and expenses that Borrower is obligated to pay under Section 12.5, but excluding, unless a Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, normal administrative costs and expenses incident to the performance of its agency duties hereunder) or the enforcement of any of the terms hereof or thereof or of any such other documents, provided that no Lender shall be liable for any of the foregoing to the extent they arise from the Administrative Agent’s breach of its standard of care set forth in the first sentence of this Section.
 
Section 14.6                                Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders.  Each Lender agrees that it has, independently and without reliance on the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis of Borrower and its Affiliates and decision to enter into this Agreement and that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own analysis and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document.  Subject to the provisions of the first sentence of Section 14.5, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to keep itself informed as to the performance or observance by Borrower of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or any other document referred to or provided for herein or therein or to inspect the Project or the books of Borrower or any of its Affiliates.  Except for notices, reports and other documents and information expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder or as otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the affairs, financial condition or business of Borrower or any of its Affiliates that may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its affiliates.
 
Section 14.7                                Failure to Act.  Except for action expressly required of the Administrative Agent hereunder, and under the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully justified in failing or refusing to act hereunder and thereunder unless it shall receive further assurances to its satisfaction from the Lenders of their indemnification obligations under Section 14.5 against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action.
 
Section 14.8                                Resignation of Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving notice thereof to the Lenders and Borrower.  Upon any such resignation, the Majority Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent which shall be a financial institution that has (a) an office in New York, New York with a combined capital and surplus of at least $500,000,000 and (b) knowledge and experience comparable to the resigning Administrative Agent’s knowledge and experience in the servicing of loans similar to the Loans hereunder.  If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the Majority Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent’s giving of notice of resignation of the retiring Administrative Agent, then the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nonetheless become effective and (i) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and (ii) the Majority Lenders shall perform the duties of the Administrative Agent (and all payments and communications provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly) until such time as the Majority Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above in this Section 14.8.  Upon the acceptance of any 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, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section 14.8).  The fees payable by Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between Borrower and such successor.  After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article 14 and Section 12.5 shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as the Administrative Agent.
