2.1.8Insufficiency of Escrow Funds and Loan Proceeds. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, at any time and from time to time during the term of the Loan, Lender shall have the right (but not the obligation), based on a Project Report or other written report from its Construction Consultant or any other basis in Lender’s sole but good faith discretion, to notify Borrower in writing (the “Shortfall Notice”) that (a) the total amount of Project Related Costs necessary to achieve Final Completion of the applicable Project Improvements that remain unpaid at the time in question exceeds the sum of (I) the undisbursed Escrow Funds that constitute Useable Unit Sale Contract Deposits and which, pursuant to applicable Legal Requirements, may be used to pay for actual costs of construction and development of the applicable Condominium (exclusive of salaries, commissions, or expenses of salespersons or other advertising expenses) as provided in HRS Section 514B-92, as then in effect, plus (II) the un-advanced portion of the Loan allocated to such Project (the sum of the amounts in the foregoing clauses (I) through (II) being referred to herein as “Remaining Available Funds”), or (b) the cost of completing any Line Item in the Construction Budget exceeds the sum of (I) the remaining undisbursed portion of the Remaining Available Funds that are allocated to such Line Item in the Construction Budget plus (II) any available amounts in the “Contingency” Line Item of the Construction Budget plus any Cost Savings that may, in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, be reallocated by Borrower to the Line Item in question (the amount of any such deficiency under clause (a) or (b) being herein referred to as the “Shortfall”). If Lender at any time shall deliver a Shortfall Notice to Borrower, then Borrower shall within thirty (30) days of delivery of the Shortfall Notice (the “Shortfall Deposit Period”), at its option, either individually or in combination (i) deposit with Lender an amount equal to the Shortfall, which Lender shall apply from time to time, or allow Borrower to apply, to such Project Related Costs in accordance with the Loan Documents, or (ii) pay for such costs using third-party equity as incurred, in the amount of such Shortfall; provided, that, Borrower shall provide evidence reasonably acceptable to Lender of such payment from third-party equity. Lender shall have no obligation to make any Disbursement or to authorize Escrow Agent to authorize any further Disbursements until the sums required to be deposited with Lender pursuant to this Section 2.1.8 have been exhausted or paid to Borrower and, in any such case, no Shortfall then exists. Any such sums not used as provided in this Section 2.1.8 shall be released to Borrower when and to the extent that Lender determines in its reasonable discretion that a Shortfall no longer exists; provided, however, if an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, Lender, in its sole discretion, may apply such amounts either to the remaining Project Related Costs or to the immediate payment of any Obligations of Borrower. In the event that Borrower does not pay the Shortfall in accordance with this Section 2.1.8, without waiving any resulting Event of Default hereunder, Lender shall have the right, upon five (5) Business Days prior written notice to Borrower, acting in its sole discretion, but not the obligation, to fund such Shortfall and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, interest on such amount so funded shall be secured by the Lien of the Loan Documents and accrue at the Default Rate. Borrower shall, within five (5) Business Days following notice from Lender that Lender has elected to make such an additional advance (“Shortfall Advance”), execute such amendments to the Loan Documents as Lender may require to evidence such Shortfall Advance and to increase the Loan amount accordingly. Borrower agrees to reasonably cooperate in all respects with Lender with regard to such funding to insure that such advances and interest are secured by the Lien of the Security Instrument and other Loan Documents and that the priority of such Lien is not affected, and shall pay any and all actual out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the advance and such amendments (including mortgage recording

49


 

tax), reasonable legal fees, and title insurance premiums, and shall provide such additional title insurance policies or endorsements as may be required by Lender.

 

Section 2.2Interest Rate.

 

2.2.1Interest Rate. Subject to Section 2.2.5 hereof, interest on the Outstanding Principal Balance shall accrue from the Closing Date to but excluding the Maturity Date at the Interest Rate.

 

2.2.2Interest Calculation. With respect to any applicable period, interest on the Outstanding Principal Balance shall be calculated by multiplying (a) the actual number of days elapsed in the period for which the calculation is being made by (b) a daily rate based on the Interest Rate and a three hundred sixty (360) day year by (c) the Outstanding Principal Balance in effect for the applicable period as calculated by Lender.

 

2.2.3Determination of Interest Rate.

 

(a)The Interest Rate with respect to the Loan shall be: (i) the LIBOR Rate with respect to the applicable Interest Period for a LIBOR Loan, (ii) the Prime Rate plus the Prime Rate Spread for a Prime Rate Loan if the Loan is converted to a Prime Rate Loan pursuant to the provisions hereof or (iii) when applicable pursuant to this agreement, the Default Rate. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall Borrower have the right to convert a LIBOR Loan to a Prime Rate Loan.

 

(b)Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Loan shall be a LIBOR Loan and Borrower shall pay interest on the Outstanding Principal Balance at the LIBOR Rate for the applicable Interest Period. Any change in the rate of interest hereunder due to a change in the Interest Rate shall become effective as of the opening of business on the first day on which such change in the Interest Rate shall become effective. Each determination by Lender of the Interest Rate shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

 

(c)In the event that Lender shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon Borrower absent manifest error) that by reason of circumstances affecting the interbank Eurodollar market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining LIBOR, then Lender shall forthwith give notice by telephone of such determination, confirmed in writing, to Borrower at least one (1) day prior to the last day of the related Interest Period. If such notice is given, the related outstanding LIBOR Loan shall be converted, on the last day of the then current Interest Period, to a Prime Rate Loan.

 

(d)If, pursuant to the terms hereof, any portion of the Loan has been converted to a Prime Rate Loan and Lender shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon Borrower absent manifest error) that the event(s) or circumstance(s) which resulted in such conversion shall no longer be applicable, Lender shall give notice by telephone of such determination, confirmed in writing, to Borrower at least one (1) day prior to the last day of the related Interest Period. If such notice is given, the related outstanding Prime Rate Loan shall be converted to a LIBOR Loan on the last day of the then current Interest Period.

50


 

(e)If any requirement of law or any change therein or in the interpretation or application thereof, shall hereafter make it unlawful for Lender to make or maintain a LIBOR Loan as contemplated hereunder (i) the obligation of Lender hereunder to make a LIBOR Loan or to convert a Prime Rate Loan to a LIBOR Loan shall be canceled forthwith and (ii) any outstanding LIBOR Loan shall be converted automatically to a Prime Rate Loan on the last day of the then current Interest Period or within such earlier period as required by law. Borrower hereby agrees to promptly pay to Lender, upon demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate Lender for any costs incurred by Lender in making any conversion in accordance with this Agreement, including, without limitation, any interest or fees payable by Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to make or maintain the LIBOR Loan hereunder. Lender’s notice of such costs, as certified to Borrower, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

 

(f)Borrower agrees to pay any Breakage Costs in connection with the conversion (for any reason whatsoever, whether voluntary or involuntary) of the Interest Rate from the LIBOR Rate to the Prime Rate with respect to any portion of the Outstanding Principal Balance then bearing interest at the LIBOR Rate on a date other than the last day of an Interest Period.

 

2.2.4Default Rate. In the event that, and for so long as, any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Outstanding Principal Balance and, to the extent permitted by law, all accrued and unpaid interest in respect thereof and any other amounts due pursuant to the Loan Documents, shall accrue interest at the Default Rate, calculated from the date such payment was due without regard to any grace or cure periods contained herein.

 

2.2.5Usury Savings. This Agreement, the Note and the other Loan Documents are subject to the express condition that at no time shall Borrower be obligated or required to pay interest on the principal balance of the Loan at a rate which could subject Lender to either civil or criminal liability as a result of being in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate. If, by the terms of this Agreement, the Note or the other Loan Documents, Borrower is at any time required or obligated to pay interest on the principal balance due hereunder at a rate in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate, the Interest Rate or the Default Rate, as the case may be, shall be deemed to be immediately reduced to the Maximum Legal Rate and all previous payments in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate shall be deemed to have been payments in reduction of principal and not on account of the interest due hereunder. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Lender for the use, forbearance, or detention of the sums due under the Loan shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the full stated term of the Loan until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Loan does not exceed the Maximum Legal Rate of interest from time to time in effect and applicable to the Loan for so long as the Loan is outstanding.

 

2.2.6Breakage Indemnity. Borrower shall indemnify Lender against any loss or expense which Lender may actually sustain or incur in liquidating or redeploying deposits from third parties acquired to effect or maintain the Loan or any part thereof as a consequence of (a) any payment or prepayment of the Loan or any portion thereof made on a date other than a Payment Date and (b) any default in payment or prepayment of the Outstanding Principal Balance or any part thereof or interest accrued thereon, as and when due and payable (at the date thereof or otherwise, and whether by acceleration or otherwise) (collectively, “Breakage Costs”). Lender

51


 

shall deliver to Borrower a statement for any such sums which it is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.2.6, which statement shall be binding and conclusive absent manifest error.

Any such amount shall be secured by the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents to the extent permitted by applicable law.

2.9.2Extension Documentation. As soon as practicable following an extension of the Maturity Date pursuant to this Section 2.9, Borrower shall, if requested by Lender, execute and deliver an amendment of and/or restatement of the Note and shall, if requested by Lender, enter into such amendments to the related Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate to evidence the extension of the Maturity Date as provided in this Section 2.9; provided, however, that no failure by Borrower to enter into any such amendments and/or restatements shall affect the rights or obligations of Borrower or Lender with respect to the extension of the Maturity Date.

 

Section 2.10Change in Law; Taxes.

 

2.10.1Increased Costs.

 

If as a result of any Change in Law or compliance of Lender therewith, the basis of taxation of payments to Lender or any Person Controlling Lender of the principal of or interest on the Loan is changed or Lender or the Person Controlling Lender shall be subject to (i) any tax, duty, charge or withholding of any kind with respect to this Agreement (excluding federal, state or local taxation of the overall net income of Lender or the Person Controlling Lender); or (ii) any reserve, special deposit or similar requirements relating to any extensions of credit or other assets of, or any deposits with or other liabilities, of Lender or any Person Controlling Lender is imposed, modified or deemed applicable; or (iii) any other condition affecting loans to borrowers subject to LIBOR-based interest rates is imposed on Lender or any Person Controlling Lender and Lender determines that, by reason thereof, the cost to Lender or any Person Controlling Lender of making, maintaining or extending the Loan to Borrower is increased, or any amount receivable by Lender or any Person Controlling Lender hereunder in respect of any portion of the Loan to Borrower is reduced (such increases in cost and reductions in amounts receivable being herein called “Increased Costs”), then Lender shall provide notice thereof to Borrower and Borrower agrees that it will pay to Lender upon Lender’s written request such additional amount or amounts as will compensate Lender or any Person Controlling Lender for such Increased Costs to the extent Lender determines that such Increased Costs are allocable to the Loan and, if imposed by the Lender initially named herein, are imposed by such Lender on similar loans to similar borrowers in such Lender’s sole discretion (it being agreed that Lender shall not be obligated to provide Borrower with the terms of any other loans). If Lender requests compensation under this Section 2.10.1, Lender shall, if requested by notice by Borrower to Lender, furnish to Borrower a statement setting forth the basis for requesting such compensation and the method for determining the amount thereof.

 

2.10.2Special Taxes. Borrower shall make all payments hereunder free and clear of and without deduction for Special Taxes. If Borrower shall be required by law to deduct any Special Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document to Lender, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.10.2) Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such

68


 

deductions been made, (ii) Borrower shall make such deductions, and (iii) Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

 

2.10.3Other Taxes. In addition, Borrower agrees to pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or other excise or property taxes, charges, or similar levies which arise from any payment made hereunder, or from the execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, or the Loan (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”).

 

Section 2.11Taxes.

 

(a)Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of Borrower under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of both Borrower and Lender after consultation with each other) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by Borrower, then Borrower shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section), and after deduction for any other Taxes imposed on additional sums payable under this Section, the applicable Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

 

(b)Payment of Other Taxes by Borrower. The Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of Lender timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

 

(c)Indemnification by Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify Lender, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Taxes indemnified under this Section 2.11(c) (including Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by Lender or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to Lender and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such 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 Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

 

(d)Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by or on account of Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section, Borrower shall deliver to Lender 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 Lender.

 

(e)Status of Lenders. If Lender is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document, Lender shall deliver to Borrower, promptly following the time or times reasonably requested by Borrower, such

69


 

properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by Borrower as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding, including:

 

(i)if Lender is a U.S. Person, executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

 

(ii)if Lender is a Foreign Lender, executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN, W-8ECI or W-8IMY, as applicable, together with all supporting documentation required under applicable law, including in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, a certificate substantially in the form of Schedule II to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code; and

 

(iii)any documentation required to be provided by a Lender as prescribed under Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code and the applicable Treasury regulations thereunder and official interpretations thereof.

 

Section 2.12Method of Disbursements.

 

2.12.1Procedure For Requesting Disbursements from Escrow Funds. At such time as Borrower shall desire to obtain a Disbursement from Escrow Funds (the date of such Disbursement being required to be a Business Day), Borrower shall complete, execute and deliver a Disbursement Request and Borrower’s Requisition to Lender at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the date of the requested Disbursement. Each Disbursement Request shall set forth on an itemized basis and the total amount of funds being requested by Borrower for Hard Costs and Soft Costs to the extent set forth in the Construction Budget, as the same may be revised in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, pursuant to such request (the “Total Request Amount”), and shall include a certification by an authorized officer of Borrower that no Shortfall exists. Provided that the conditions to making or authorizing a Disbursement set forth in Section 2.8 are satisfied, then, on the Requested Disbursement Date, Lender shall authorize Escrow Agent to authorize a Disbursement, in an amount equal in the aggregate to the Total Requested Amount set forth in the applicable Disbursement Request; provided, however Lender shall not be responsible if Escrow Agent shall not authorize or cause such Disbursement in whole or in part.

 

(a)Not later than 2:00 P.M. New York City time on the Requested Disbursement Date, Lender shall authorize Escrow Agent to authorize such Disbursement to Borrower in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.12.

 

(b)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Lender shall not be required to authorize Escrow Agent to authorize any Disbursement if the amount of such requested Disbursement is less than One Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($100,000.00), except for a Disbursement approved by Lender and made pursuant to Section 2.12 hereof or for the final Disbursement.

70


 

2.12.2Funds Disbursed. All proceeds of all Disbursements shall be used by Borrower only for the purposes for which such Disbursements were made.

 

2.12.3Direct Disbursements to Third Parties. Lender, during the continuance of an Event of Default, may make any Disbursement or authorize Escrow Agent to authorize any or all Disbursements to be made directly to (i) any Contractor or Subcontractor, (ii) Borrower’s Architect, (iii) the Construction Consultant to pay its fees, (iv) Lender’s counsel to pay its reasonable fees and (v) to pay (x) any other expenses incurred by Lender which are reimbursable by Borrower under the Loan Documents (including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, reasonable and actual attorneys’ fees and expenses and other fees and expenses incurred by Lender and payable by Borrower pursuant to the provisions of the Loan Documents) or (y) any other sums due to Lender under the Note, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. The execution of this Agreement by Borrower shall, and hereby does, constitute an irrevocable authorization to so authorize the Disbursement of Escrow Funds during the continuance of an Event of Default directly to any such Person in accordance with this Section 2.12.3 as amounts become due and payable to them hereunder, but subject in all events to the restrictions and requirements on disbursements set forth in the Escrow Agreement, the Unit Sales Contracts and Legal Requirements. No further authorization from Borrower shall be necessary to warrant such direct Disbursements to such relevant Person.

 

2.12.4One Disbursement Per Month. Other than a Disbursement authorized by Lender to be made by Escrow Agent pursuant to Section 2.12, Lender shall have no obligation to authorize Escrow Agent to authorize any Disbursement of Escrow Funds more often than once in each calendar month. Lender shall have no obligation to make any Disbursement of the unadvanced portion of the Loan more often than once in each calendar month.

 

2.12.5Disbursements Do Not Constitute a Waiver. Neither the making nor the authorization of Escrow Agent to authorize a Disbursement shall constitute a waiver of any of the conditions of Lender’s obligation to make or to authorize Escrow Agent to authorize further Disbursements nor, in the event Borrower is unable to satisfy any such condition, shall any Disbursement have the effect of precluding Lender from thereafter declaring such inability to be an Event of Default hereunder.

 

2.12.6Disbursements to Pay Debt Service. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, if (1) on any Payment Date, there are insufficient funds in the Cash Management Account allocable to the payment of the Monthly Debt Service Payment Amount to pay in full the Monthly Debt Service Payment Amount (the shortfall in funds available in the Cash Management Account to make such payments, a “Debt Service Payment Shortfall”), and (2) there are funds then remaining in the Interest and/or Contingency Line Items of the Construction Budget in an amount at least equal to such Debt Service Payment Shortfall, then Lender shall make a Disbursement of the unadvanced portion of the Loan on such Payment Date in an amount equal to such Debt Service Payment Shortfall in order to pay the Monthly Debt Service Payment Amount.

 

2.12.7Disbursements Under Completion Guaranty. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally authorizes Lender to make Disbursements of the Loan and

71


 

Escrow Agent to make Disbursements of the Escrow Funds to Guarantor pursuant to and in accordance with the Completion Guaranty and this Agreement.

 

Section 2.13Review of Plans and Specification. Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that neither Lender nor the Construction Consultant’s approval of any Plans and Specifications (or any revisions thereto), nor its inspection of the performance of the construction, nor its right to inspect such work, shall impose upon Lender and/or Construction Consultant any obligation or liability whatsoever with respect thereto, including, without limitation, any obligation or liability that might arise as a result of such work not being performed in accordance with applicable laws and/or requirements of public authorities or with the Plans and Specifications (and revisions thereto) approved by Lender and Construction Consultant or otherwise. The review or approval by Lender and Construction Consultant of any Plans and Specifications or any revisions thereto is solely for Lender’s benefit, and is without any representation or warranty whatsoever with respect to the adequacy, correctness or efficiency thereof or otherwise. Neither the granting by Lender and/or Construction Consultant of its approval of any Plans and Specifications or any revisions thereto, shall in any manner constitute or be deemed to constitute a judgment or acknowledgment by Lender as to their legality or compliance with laws and/or requirements of public authorities.

 

Section 2.14No Reliance. All conditions and requirements of this Agreement are for the sole benefit of Lender and no other person or party (including, without limitation, the Construction Consultant, the General Contractor and subcontractors (including, without limitation, Major Contractors and Major Subcontractors) and materialmen engaged in the construction of the Project Improvements) shall have the right to rely on the satisfaction of such conditions and requirements by Borrower. Lender shall have the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, to waive any such condition or requirement and Borrower shall be authorized to rely on such waiver if and to the extent such waiver is in writing and signed by Lender.

(viii)misapplication, misappropriation or conversion by or on behalf of Borrower, Guarantor or any Affiliate of any of them in violation of the requirements of the Loan Documents of (A) any insurance proceeds, (B) any Awards, (C) any Rents, (D) any Rents paid more than one (1) month in advance, (E) Net Sales Proceeds, (F) Unit Sale Contract Deposits, (G) Escrow Funds, or (H) any other monetary collateral for the Loan;

(x)failure to deliver to Lender any security deposits, Unit Sale Contract Deposits, advance deposits or any other deposits collected with respect to the Property upon a foreclosure of the Property or action in lieu thereof, to the extent such delivery is permitted by law, except to the extent any such security deposits, Unit Sale Contract Deposits or other deposits were applied in accordance with the terms and conditions of any of the Leases or Unit Sale Contracts prior to the occurrence of the Event of Default that gave rise to such foreclosure or action in lieu thereof;

 

(xi)failure by Borrower to obtain and maintain, from time to time, the fully paid for insurance policies in accordance with the terms hereof; but solely to the extent of any funds actually made available by Lender hereunder for payment of annual premiums therefor or from other available cash flow from the Property, it being agreed that, nothing herein shall require Borrower or any indirect owners of Borrower to fund additional capital therefor; or

ARTICLE IV

 

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

 

Section 4.1Borrower Representations. Borrower represents and warrants as of the date hereof that:

 

4.1.1Organization. Borrower has been duly organized and is validly existing and in good standing with requisite power and authority to own its properties and to transact the business in which it is now engaged. Borrower is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction where it is required to be so qualified in connection with its properties, businesses and operations. Borrower possesses all rights, licenses, permits and authorizations, governmental or otherwise, necessary to entitle it to own its properties and to transact the businesses in which it is now engaged, and the sole business of Borrower is the ownership, management and operation of the Property. The ownership interests of Borrower are as set forth on the organizational chart attached hereto as Schedule III. Borrower (a) has complied in all respects with its certificate of incorporation, bylaws, limited partnership agreement, articles of organization and limited liability company operating agreement, as applicable; (b) has maintained complete books and records and bank accounts separate from those of its Affiliates; (c) has obeyed all formalities required to maintain its status as, and at all times has held itself out to the public as, a legal entity separate and distinct from any other entity (including, but not limited to, any Affiliate thereof); and (d) has all requisite power and authority to conduct its business and to own its property, as now conducted or owned, and as contemplated by this Agreement, including, without limitation, the power and authority to do business in the state in which the Property is located. The signatory hereto has all requisite power, authority and legal right to

76


 

execute this Agreement, the Note and the other Loan Documents on Borrower’s behalf to which Borrower is a party. Guarantor has the necessary power, authority and legal right to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Guaranty.

 

4.1.2Proceedings. Borrower has taken all necessary action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents have been duly executed and delivered by or on behalf of Borrower and constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of Borrower enforceable against Borrower in accordance with their respective terms, subject only to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws affecting rights of creditors generally, and subject, as to enforceability, to general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law).

 

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

 

4.1.4Litigation. There are no actions, suits or proceedings at law or in equity by or before any Governmental Authority or other agency now pending or threatened in writing against or affecting Borrower, Guarantor, Principal, Pledgor or the Property or any portion thereof, which actions, suits or proceedings (a “Litigation Matter”), if determined against Borrower, Guarantor, Principal, Pledgor, Developer or the Property or such portion thereof, would reasonably be expected to materially adversely affect the condition (financial or otherwise) or business of Borrower, Guarantor, Principal, Pledgor, Developer or the condition or ownership of the Property or any portion thereof; provided, however, for purposes of Sections 2.8.2(b), 2.8.3(c), 2.9 or 8.1(a)(v), the existence or occurrence of a Litigation Matter shall be disclosed to Lender but shall not cause the representation in this Section 4.1.4 to fail to be true and correct in all material respects so long as such new Litigation Matter would not reasonably be expected to materially adversely affect the condition (financial or otherwise) or business of Borrower, Guarantor, Principal, Pledgor, Developer or the condition or ownership of the Property or any portion thereof.

 

4.1.5Agreements. Borrower is not a party to any agreement or instrument or subject to any restriction that might materially and adversely affect Borrower or the Property or any portion thereof, or Borrower’s business, properties or assets, operations or condition, financial or otherwise. Borrower is not in default in any material respect in the performance, observance or fulfillment of any of the obligations, covenants or conditions contained in any agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which Borrower or the Property are bound. Borrower has no

77


 

material financial obligation under any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement or other agreement or instrument to which Borrower is a party or by which Borrower or the Property is otherwise bound, other than (a) any obligations incurred in the ordinary course of the operation of the Property as permitted pursuant to clause (s) of the definition of “Special Purpose Entity” set forth in Section 1.1 hereof, and (b) the obligations under the Loan Documents.

 

4.1.6Title. Borrower has good, marketable and insurable fee simple title to the real property comprising part of the Property and good title to the balance of the Property, free and clear of all Liens whatsoever, except the Permitted Encumbrances, such other Liens as are permitted pursuant to the Loan Documents and the Liens created by the Loan Documents. The Permitted Encumbrances, in the aggregate, do not materially and adversely affect the value, operation or use of the Property or any portion thereof (as currently used) or Borrower’s ability to repay the Loan. The Security Instrument and the Assignment of Leases, when properly recorded in the appropriate records, together with any UCC-1 financing statements required to be filed in connection therewith, will create (a) a valid, perfected first priority lien on the Property, subject only to Permitted Encumbrances and the Liens created by the Loan Documents, and (b) perfected security interests in and to, and perfected collateral assignments of, all personalty (including the Leases), all in accordance with the terms thereof, in each case subject only to any applicable Permitted Encumbrances, such other Liens as are permitted pursuant to the Loan Documents and the Liens created by the Loan Documents. There are no claims for payment for work, labor or materials affecting the Property or any portion thereof that are or may become a Lien prior to, or of equal priority with, the Liens created by the Loan Documents. The UCC-1 financing statements required to be filed in connection with the Pledge Agreement, when properly filed in the appropriate records, will create a valid, perfected first priority lien on the Pledged Collateral (the “Pledgor UCC-1”).

 

4.1.7Solvency. Borrower has (a) not entered into the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or executed the Note, this Agreement or any other Loan Document with the actual intent to hinder, delay or defraud any creditor and (b) received reasonably equivalent value in exchange for its Obligations under such Loan Documents. After giving effect to the Loan, the fair saleable value of Borrower’s assets exceeds and will, immediately following the making of the Loan, exceed Borrower’s total liabilities, including, without limitation, subordinated, unliquidated, disputed and contingent liabilities. The fair saleable value of Borrower’s assets is and will, immediately following the making of the Loan, be greater than Borrower’s probable liabilities, including the maximum amount of its contingent liabilities on its debts as such debts become absolute and matured. Borrower’s assets do not and, immediately following the making of the Loan will not, constitute unreasonably small capital to carry out its business as conducted or as proposed to be conducted. Borrower does not intend to, and does not believe that it will, incur debts and liabilities (including contingent liabilities and other commitments) beyond its ability to pay such debts and liabilities as they mature (taking into account the timing and amount of cash to be received by Borrower and the amount to be payable on or in respect of the obligations of Borrower). No Bankruptcy Action exists against Borrower, Pledgor or any Principal, and neither Borrower, Pledgor nor Principal has ever been a party to a Bankruptcy Action. Neither Borrower, Pledgor nor Principal is contemplating either a Bankruptcy Action or the liquidation of all or a major portion of Borrower’s assets or properties, and Borrower has no knowledge of any Person contemplating the filing of any petition against it, Pledgor or Principal.

78


 

4.1.8Full and Accurate Disclosure. No statement of fact made by or on behalf of Borrower in this Agreement or in any of the other Loan Documents contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact necessary to make statements contained herein or therein not misleading in any material respect in light of the circumstances under which they were made.

BORROWER COVENANTS

 

Section 5.1Affirmative Covenants. From the date hereof and until payment and performance in full of all Obligations, Borrower hereby covenants and agrees with Lender that:

 

5.1.1Existence; Compliance with Legal Requirements. Each of Borrower and Pledgor shall do or cause to be done all things reasonably necessary to preserve, renew and keep in full force and effect its existence, rights, licenses, permits and franchises necessary for the conduct of its business and comply with all Legal Requirements applicable to Borrower and the Property (or any portion thereof). There shall never be committed by Borrower, and Borrower shall not permit any other Person in occupancy of or involved with the operation or use of the Property or any portion thereof to commit, any act or omission affording any Governmental Authority the right of forfeiture against the Property or any part thereof or any monies paid in performance of Borrower’s Obligations under any of the Loan Documents. Borrower shall not commit, permit or suffer to exist any act or omission affording such right of forfeiture. Borrower shall at all times maintain, preserve and protect all franchises and trade names, preserve all the remainder of its property used or useful in the conduct of its business, and shall keep the Property in good working order and repair, and from time to time make, or cause to be made, all reasonably necessary repairs, renewals, replacements, betterments and improvements thereto, all as more fully provided in the Security Instrument. Borrower shall keep the Property insured at all times by financially sound and reputable insurers, to such extent and against such risks, and maintain liability and such other insurance, as is more fully provided in this Agreement. After prior notice to Lender, Borrower, at its own expense, may contest by appropriate legal proceeding promptly initiated and conducted in good faith and with due diligence, the validity of any Legal Requirement, the applicability of any Legal Requirement to Borrower or the Property (or portion thereof) or any

90


 

alleged violation of any Legal Requirement; provided, that: (a) no Event of Default has occurred and remains uncured; (b) such proceeding shall be permitted under, and be conducted in accordance with, the provisions of any instrument to which Borrower is subject and shall not constitute a default thereunder and such proceeding shall be conducted in accordance with all applicable statutes, laws and ordinances; (c) neither the Property nor any part thereof or interest therein will be in danger of being sold, forfeited, terminated, cancelled or lost; (d) Borrower shall, upon final determination thereof, promptly comply with any such Legal Requirement determined to be valid or applicable or cure any violation of any Legal Requirement; (e) such proceeding shall suspend the enforcement of the contested Legal Requirement against Borrower and the Property; (f) Borrower shall furnish such security as may be required in the proceeding, or as may be reasonably requested by Lender, to insure compliance with such Legal Requirement, together with all interest and penalties payable in connection therewith. Lender may apply any such security, as necessary to cause compliance with such Legal Requirement at any time when, in the reasonable judgment of Lender, the validity, applicability or violation of such Legal Requirement is finally established or the Property (or any part thereof or interest therein) shall be in danger of being sold, forfeited, terminated, cancelled or lost; and (g) such contest shall not delay or materially adversely affect the construction of the Project as required under this Agreement.

 

5.1.2Taxes and Other Charges. Borrower shall pay, or shall cause its Tenant(s) to pay (to the extent any Tenant is obligated to make such payments under its Lease) all Property Taxes and Other Charges now or hereafter levied or assessed or imposed against the Property, or any part thereof, as the same become due and payable (and with respect to Property Taxes, prior to the date the same become delinquent); provided, however, Borrower’s obligation to directly pay Property Taxes shall be suspended for so long as Borrower complies with the terms and provisions of Section 7.1 hereof. Borrower will deliver to Lender receipts for payment or other evidence satisfactory to Lender that the Property Taxes and Other Charges have been so paid or are not then delinquent no later than ten (10) days prior to the date on which the Property Taxes and/or Other Charges would otherwise be delinquent if not paid; provided, however, Borrower is not required to furnish such receipts for payment of Property Taxes in the event that such Property Taxes have been paid by Lender pursuant to Section 7.1 hereof. Subject to the terms of this Section 5.1.2 and Section 5.2.2, Borrower shall not suffer and shall promptly cause to be paid and discharged any Lien or charge whatsoever, which may be or become a Lien or charge against the Property or any portion thereof (other than Permitted Encumbrances), and shall promptly pay for all utility services provided to the Property. After prior notice to Lender, Borrower, at its own expense, may contest by appropriate legal proceeding, promptly initiated and conducted in good faith and with due diligence, the amount or validity or application in whole or in part of any Property Taxes or Other Charges; provided that (a) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and remains uncured; (b) such proceeding shall be permitted under, and be conducted in accordance with, the provisions of any other instrument to which Borrower is subject and shall not constitute a default thereunder and such proceeding shall be conducted in accordance with all applicable statutes, laws and ordinances; (c) neither the Property nor any part thereof or interest therein will be in danger of being sold, forfeited, terminated, cancelled or lost; (d) Borrower shall promptly upon final determination thereof pay the amount of any such Property Taxes or Other Charges, together with all costs, interest and penalties which may be payable in connection therewith; (e) such proceeding shall suspend the collection of such contested Property Taxes or Other Charges from the Property (except that if such Property Taxes or Other Charges must be paid sooner in order to avoid being

91


 

delinquent, then Borrower shall cause the same to be paid prior to delinquency, and upon making such payment prior to delinquency Borrower may continue such contest); (f) Borrower shall furnish such security as may be required in the proceeding, or as may be reasonably requested by Lender, to insure the payment of any such Property Taxes or Other Charges, together with all interest and penalties thereon. Lender may pay over any such cash deposit or part thereof held by Lender to the claimant entitled thereto at any time when, in the judgment of Lender, the entitlement of such claimant is established or the Property (or part thereof or interest therein) shall be in danger of being sold, forfeited, terminated, cancelled or lost or there shall be any danger of the Lien of the Security Instrument being primed by any related Lien; and (g) such contest shall not delay or affect the construction of the Project as required under this Agreement.

 

5.1.3Litigation. Each of Borrower and Pledgor shall give prompt notice to Lender of any litigation or proceedings by any Governmental Authority pending or threatened against Borrower, Pledgor, Developer and/or Guarantor which would reasonably be expected to materially adversely affect Borrower’s, Pledgor’s, Developer’s or Guarantor’s ability to perform its obligations under the Loan Documents, or Borrower’s, Developer’s or Guarantor’s condition (financial or otherwise) or business or the Property or any portion thereof.

 

5.1.4Access to Property. Subject to the rights of the tenants under the Leases and the rights of owners of Residential Units and Commercial Units other than Borrower, Borrower shall permit Lender, the Construction Consultant and their respective representatives, upon reasonable prior notice to enter upon the Property, inspect the Project Improvements and all materials to be used in the construction thereof, to examine the Plans and Specifications or any Contracts, Governmental Approvals or other documentation relating to the Project requested by Lender or the Construction Consultant and to perform such testing as Lender or Construction Consultant reasonably deem desirable at the Project at all times at which Lender or the Construction Consultant reasonably deems necessary or desirable upon reasonable advance notice to Borrower, provided, that, Borrower shall have the right to have a representative of Borrower be present absent the existence of an Event of Default. Borrower shall reasonably cooperate, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the General Contractor, the Contractors and the Subcontractors to cooperate, with Lender and Construction Consultant to enable each Person to perform its functions hereunder. Lender, Construction Consultant or their agents, representatives, consultants and employees as part of any inspection may take soil, air, water, building material and other samples from the Property and shall have the right to undertake testing of such soil, air, water, building material and other samples at Borrower’s cost and expense in the event that an Event of Default exists or Lender reasonably believes that Hazardous Substances exist on the Property or there is an actual or potential breach of Environmental Statutes and, in Lender’s reasonable opinion, Borrower’s testing of the adequacy of such soil, air, water, building material and other samples is not acceptable to Lender, provided, however, that Lender shall use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize any disturbances or damage to the Property.

 

5.1.5Notice of Changed Circumstances. Each of Borrower and Pledgor shall promptly advise Lender of (i) any Material Adverse Change in Borrower’s, Pledgor’s or Guarantor’s condition, financial or otherwise, of which Borrower has knowledge, (ii) the occurrence of any default of which Borrower has knowledge under the Management Agreement or Development Agreement, (iii) the occurrence of any event which, but for the giving of notice or passage of time, or both, would be a default under the Management Agreement, or Development

92

Lender shall have the right from time to time at all times during normal business hours upon reasonable notice (which may be verbal) to examine such books, records and accounts at the office of Borrower or any other Person maintaining such books, records and accounts and to make such copies or extracts thereof as Lender shall desire. After the occurrence of an Event of Default, Borrower shall pay any reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Lender to examine Borrower’s accounting records with respect to the Property, as Lender shall reasonably determine to be necessary or appropriate in the protection of Lender’s interest.

If requested by Lender, Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts to furnish to Lender financial data and/or financial statements for any Tenant of the Property if, in connection with a Securitization, Lender expects there to be, with respect to such Tenant or group of Affiliated Tenants, a concentration within all of the mortgage loans included or expected to be included, as applicable, in the Securitization such that such Tenant or group of affiliated Tenants would constitute a Significant Obligor. All financial data and financial statements provided by Borrower hereunder pursuant to this Section 5.1.11(f) shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP and shall meet the requirements of Regulation S-K or Regulation S-X, as applicable, Regulation AB and other applicable legal requirements.

In the event of a conflict between the insurance requirements of this Agreement and the insurance requirements of other applicable Condominium Declarations for the Property, the most stringent requirements shall prevail provided that Borrower’s continuous and intentional failure to maintain a material portion of any such required coverages shall constitute an Event of Default notwithstanding any such reasonable action by Borrower.

 

(xiii)During construction activities, all firms engaged in a Design or Design-Assist Capacity shall be required to maintain Professional Liability/E&O coverage in the amount of One Million and No/100 Dollars ($1,000,000.00) per occurrence or claim and in the aggregate.

(xv)Upon sixty (60) days’ notice, such other reasonable insurance and in such reasonable amounts as Lender from time to time may reasonably request against such other insurable hazards, which at the time are commonly insured

140


 

against for properties similar to the Property located in or around the region in which the Property is located.

 

(b)All insurance provided for in Section 6.1(a) shall be obtained under valid and enforceable policies (collectively, the “Policies” or in the singular, the “Policy”), and shall be subject to the reasonable approval of Lender as to insurance companies, amounts, deductibles, loss payees and insureds. The Policies shall be issued by financially sound and responsible insurance companies authorized to do business in the state and having a claims paying ability rating of “A-” or better (and the equivalent thereof) by A.M. Best. For multi-layered policies, if four (4) or fewer insurance companies issue the Policies, then at least seventy-five percent (75%) of the insurance coverage represented by the Policies must be provided by insurance companies with a claims paying ability rating of “A-” or better by A.M. Best, with no carrier below “B+” or if five (5) or more insurance companies issue the Policies, then at least sixty percent (60%) of the insurance coverage represented by the Policies must be provided by insurance companies with a claims paying ability rating of “A-” or better by A.M.

(c)Any insurance provided for in Section 6.1(a) may be on a separate Policy, a blanket insurance Policy, or a combination thereof, provided that any blanket insurance Policy shall specifically allocate to the Property the amount of coverage from time to time required hereunder or shall otherwise provide the same protection as would a separate Policy insuring only the Property in compliance with the provisions of Section 6.1(a).

 

(d)All Policies provided for or contemplated by Section 6.1(a), except for the Policies referenced in Section 6.1(a)(v) and (xiii), shall name Borrower as the insured or as an additional insured and Lender (and its successors and assigns) as Mortgagee and/or Loss Payee for Property coverages and Additional Insured for liability coverages, as its interests may appear, and in the case of property, boiler and machinery, flood and earthquake insurance, shall contain a standard non-contributing mortgagee clause in favor of Lender providing that the loss thereunder shall be payable to Lender.

 

(e)All Policies provided for in Section 6.1(a) and naming Borrower as the insured shall contain clauses or endorsements to the effect that, or otherwise provide that: (i) no act or negligence of Borrower, or anyone acting for Borrower, or of any tenant or other occupant, or failure to comply with the provisions of any Policy, which might otherwise result in a forfeiture of the insurance or any part thereof, shall in any way affect the validity or enforceability of the insurance insofar as Lender is concerned (except with respect to liability policies which shall not contain a clause or endorsement to the effect that, or otherwise provide that an act or negligence of such parties shall in any way affect the validity or enforceability of the insurance insofar as Lender is concerned); (ii) the Policies shall not be canceled without at least thirty (30) days’ notice to

141


 

Lender, except for non-payment of premium which shall be ten (10) days; and (iv) Lender shall not be liable for any Insurance Premiums thereon or subject to any assessments thereunder.

 

(f)Copies of Policies provided for in Section 6.1(a) shall be required to be provided to Lender upon reasonable request. If at any time after such request Lender is not in receipt of written evidence that all Policies are in full force and effect, Lender shall have the right, without notice to Borrower, to take such action as Lender deems necessary to protect its interest in the Property, including, without limitation, the obtaining of such insurance coverage as Lender in its sole discretion deems appropriate per the terms of this Agreement. All premiums incurred by Lender in connection with such action or in obtaining such insurance and keeping it in effect shall be paid by Borrower to Lender upon demand and, until paid, shall be secured by the Security Instrument and shall bear interest at the Default Rate.

 

(g)To the extent the same are not in effect as of the Closing Date, Borrower covenants and agrees that: (i) within five (5) Business Days after the Closing Date, Borrower shall revise the hard and soft costs limits for the Builder’s Risk coverage on the Ala Moana Property to levels approved by Lender in its sole and absolute discretion; (ii) within twenty (20) Business Days after the Closing Date, Borrower shall deliver to Lender the 100% payment and performance bonds (except as expressly set forth on Schedule XI hereto) including a dual obligee rider flowing to Lender, from both General Contractors, (iii) within ten (10) Business Days after the Closing Date, add terrorism coverage to the OCIP for the Ala Moana Property and the Contractor’s Pollution Liability policies either included in the policies or provided via a stand-alone basis; (iv) not later than December 15, 2014, implement an OCIP for the Auahi Property with limits, terms and conditions in substantially the same form as the OCIP for the Ala Moana Property (inclusive of terrorism coverage which can either be included in the policies or provided via a stand-alone basis) and acceptable to Lender; and (v) not later than December 15, 2014, bind Builder’s Risk coverage on the Auahi Property with limits, terms and conditions in substantially the same form as for the Ala Moana Property Builder’s Risk coverage (inclusive of terrorism coverage which can either be included in the policies or provided via a stand-alone basis) and acceptable to Lender.

 

Section 6.2Casualty. If the Property shall be damaged or destroyed, in whole or in part, by fire or other casualty (a “Casualty”), Borrower shall (a) give prompt notice of such damage to Lender, and (b) unless Lender fails to make Net Proceeds available for Restoration in violation of this Agreement, promptly commence and diligently prosecute the completion of Restoration so that the Property resembles, as nearly as possible, the condition the Property was in immediately prior to such Casualty, with such alterations as may be reasonably approved by Lender and otherwise in accordance with Section 6.4. Unless Lender fails to make Net Proceeds available for Restoration in violation of this Agreement, Borrower shall pay all costs of such Restoration whether or not such costs are covered by insurance. Lender may, but shall not be obligated to make proof of loss if not made promptly by Borrower. In addition, Lender may participate in (and have reasonable approval rights over) any settlement discussions with any insurance companies with respect to any Casualty in which the Net Proceeds or the costs of completing Restoration are equal to or greater than One Million Five Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($1,500,000.00) (the “Casualty Threshold”) and Borrower shall deliver to Lender all instruments required by Lender to permit such participation.

142


 

Section 6.3Condemnation  . Borrower shall promptly give Lender notice of the actual or threatened (in writing) commencement of any proceeding in respect of Condemnation, and shall deliver to Lender copies of any and all papers served in connection with such proceedings. Lender may participate in any such proceedings, and Borrower shall from time to time deliver to Lender all instruments reasonably requested by Lender to permit such participation. Borrower shall, at its expense, diligently prosecute any such proceedings (to the extent such proceedings are not diligently prosecuted by the Condominium Board in accordance with the Condominium Documents), and shall consult with Lender, its attorneys and experts, and reasonably cooperate with them in the carrying on or defense of any such proceedings. Notwithstanding any taking by any public or quasi-public authority through Condemnation or otherwise (including, but not limited to, any transfer made in lieu of or in anticipation of the exercise of such taking), Borrower shall continue to perform the Obligations at the time and in the manner provided in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the Outstanding Principal Balance shall not be reduced until any Award shall have been actually received and applied by Lender, after the deduction of expenses of collection, to the reduction or discharge of the Obligations. Lender shall not be limited to the interest paid on the Award by the applicable Governmental Authority, but shall be entitled to receive out of the Award interest at the rate or rates provided herein or in the Note. If the Property or any portion thereof is taken by a Governmental Authority, Borrower shall promptly commence and diligently prosecute Restoration (to the extent such Restoration is not commenced and diligently prosecuted to completion by the Condominium Board in accordance with the Condominium Documents) and otherwise comply with the provisions of Section 6.4. If the Property or any portion thereof is sold, through foreclosure or otherwise, prior to the receipt by Lender of the Award, Lender shall have the right, whether or not a deficiency judgment on the Note shall have been sought, recovered or denied, to receive the Award, or a portion thereof sufficient to pay the Debt. Notwithstanding the foregoing or in any of the other Loan Documents, with respect to any Condemnation pursuant to the proceeding described on Schedule XII that would not reasonably be expected to impair the Project in any material respect, and in which the portion of the Project included in such Condemnation is a de minimis portion of the aggregate amount of real property beneficially owned by Guarantor and its Affiliates that is the subject of such Condemnation proceeding, Lender shall not participate in a manner that would unreasonably interfere with a global resolution of such Condemnation proceeding between Guarantor and its Affiliates and the applicable condemning authority, and provided that Guarantor and Borrower have reasonably consulted with Lender regarding the allocation of any award that is part of such global resolution, Guarantor and its Affiliates may allocate such award among the affected properties in Guarantor’s commercially reasonable discretion (which shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error).

 

Section 6.4Restoration. The following provisions shall apply in connection with any Restoration:

 

(a)If the Net Proceeds shall be less than the Casualty Threshold and the costs of completing Restoration shall be less than the Casualty Threshold, the Net Proceeds will be disbursed by Lender to Borrower upon receipt; provided that all of the conditions set forth in Section 6.4(b)(i) are met and Borrower delivers to Lender a written undertaking to expeditiously commence and to satisfactorily complete with due diligence Restoration in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

143


 

(b)If the Net Proceeds are equal to or greater than the Casualty Threshold, but less than twenty percent (20%) of the original principal balance of the Loan or the costs of completing Restoration is equal to or greater than the Casualty Threshold, but less than twenty percent (20%) of the original principal balance of the Loan, the Net Proceeds will be held by Lender and Lender shall make the Net Proceeds available for Restoration in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.4. The term “Net Proceeds” for purposes of this Section 6.4 shall mean: (i) the net amount of all insurance proceeds received by Lender pursuant to Section 6.1 (a)(i),  (iv),  (vi),  (ix) and (x) as a result of such damage or destruction, after deduction of Lender’s reasonable costs and expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable counsel costs and fees), if any, in collecting same (“Insurance Proceeds”), or (ii) the net amount of the Award, after deduction of Lender’s reasonable costs and expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable counsel costs and fees), if any, in collecting same (“Condemnation Proceeds”), whichever the case may be.

 

(i)The Net Proceeds shall be made available to Borrower for Restoration upon the approval of Lender in its reasonable discretion that the following conditions are met:

 

(A)no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing;

 

(B)(1) in the event the Net Proceeds are Insurance Proceeds, less than twenty-five percent (25%) of the total floor area of the affected building has been damaged, destroyed or rendered unusable as a result of such Casualty, or (2) in the event the Net Proceeds are Condemnation Proceeds, less than ten percent (10%) of the land constituting the parcel that is taken, and such land is located along the perimeter or periphery of such parcel, and no material portion of the Improvements is located on such land;

 

(C)Borrower shall commence Restoration as soon as reasonably practicable (but in no event later than sixty (60) days after such Casualty or Condemnation, whichever the case may be, occurs) and shall diligently pursue the same to satisfactory completion;

 

(D)Lender shall be satisfied that any operating deficits, including all scheduled payments of principal and interest under the Note, which will be incurred with respect to the Property as a result of the occurrence of any such Casualty or Condemnation, whichever the case may be, will be covered out of (1) the Net Proceeds, (2) the insurance coverage referred to in Section 6.1(a)(iii), if applicable, or (3) by other funds of Borrower, including funds that are available in the Escrow Funds for completion of the Project, if applicable;

(iii)All plans and specifications required in connection with Restoration shall be subject to prior review and acceptance in all respects by Lender and by an independent consulting engineer selected by Lender (the “Casualty Consultant”). Lender shall have the use of the plans and specifications and all permits, licenses and approvals required or obtained in connection with Restoration. The identity of the contractors, subcontractors and materialmen engaged in Restoration, as well as the contracts under which they have been engaged, shall be subject to prior review and reasonable acceptance by Lender and the Casualty Consultant. All reasonable costs and expenses actually incurred by Lender in connection with making the Net Proceeds available for Restoration including, without limitation, reasonable counsel fees and disbursements and the Casualty Consultant’s fees, shall be paid by Borrower.

The term “Retention Amount” shall mean, as to each contractor, subcontractor or materialman engaged in Restoration, an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the costs actually incurred for work in place as part of Restoration, as certified by the Casualty Consultant, until fifty percent (50%) of Restoration by any such party has been completed; provided, that Borrower shall not be obligated to withhold any additional retention amount with respect to the remaining fifty percent (50%) of Restoration by such party, but shall retain the initial retention amount until Restoration has been completed by such party, including any Punchlist Items (it being acknowledged and agreed that at no time until Restoration has been completed by such party shall the retention amount with respect to such party be less than five percent (5%)); provided, further, that the Retention Amount shall in no event, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above in this Section 6.4(b), be less than the amount actually held back by Borrower from contractors, subcontractors and materialmen engaged in Restoration.

146


 

Consultant certifies to Lender that Restoration has been completed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.4(b) and that all approvals necessary for the re-occupancy and use of the Property have been obtained from all appropriate Governmental Authorities, and Lender receives evidence satisfactory to Lender that the costs of Restoration have been paid in full or will be paid in full out of the Retention Amount; provided, however, that Lender will release the portion of the Retention Amount being held with respect to any contractor, subcontractor or materialman engaged in Restoration as of the date upon which the Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender that the contractor, subcontractor or materialman has satisfactorily completed all work and has supplied all materials in accordance with the provisions of the contractor’s, subcontractor’s or materialmen’s contract, the contractor, subcontractor or materialman delivers the lien waivers and evidence of payment in full of all sums due to the contractor, subcontractor or materialman as may be reasonably requested by Lender or by the Title Company issuing the Title Insurance Policy, and Lender receives an endorsement to the Title Insurance Policy insuring the continued priority of the lien of the related Security Instrument and evidence of payment of any premium payable for such endorsement. If required by Lender, the release of any such portion of the Retention Amount shall be approved by the surety company, if any, which has issued a payment or performance bond with respect to the applicable contractor, subcontractor or materialman.

 

(v)Lender shall not be obligated to make disbursements of the Net Proceeds more frequently than once every calendar month.

 

(vi)If at any time the Net Proceeds or the undisbursed balance thereof shall not, in the opinion of Lender in consultation with the Casualty Consultant, be sufficient to pay in full the balance of the costs which are estimated by the Casualty Consultant to be incurred in connection with the completion of Restoration that Borrower is required to perform (excluding any restoration by Tenants), Borrower shall deposit the deficiency (the “Net Proceeds Deficiency”) with Lender before any further disbursement of the Net Proceeds shall be made. The Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited with Lender shall be held by Lender and shall be disbursed for costs actually incurred in connection with Restoration on the same conditions applicable to the disbursement of the Net Proceeds, and until so disbursed pursuant to this Section 6.4(b) shall constitute additional security for the Debt and the Other Obligations.

 

(vii)The excess, if any, of the Net Proceeds and the remaining balance, if any, of the Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited with Lender after the Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender that Restoration has been completed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.4(b), and the receipt by Lender of evidence satisfactory to Lender that all costs incurred in connection with Restoration have been paid in full, shall be remitted by Lender to Borrower; provided no Event of Default shall have occurred and shall be continuing.

 

(c)If Net Proceeds are (i) equal to or greater than twenty percent (20%) of the original principal amount of the Loan, or (ii) not required to be made available for Restoration (due

147


 

to Borrower’s inability to satisfy the conditions set forth in Section 6.4(b)(i) or otherwise), then in any such event all Net Proceeds may be retained and applied by Lender in accordance with Section 2.4.2 hereof toward reduction of the Outstanding Principal Balance whether or not then due and payable in such order, priority and proportions as Lender in its sole discretion shall deem proper, or, in the sole discretion of Lender, the same may be paid, either in whole or in part, to Borrower for such purposes as Lender shall approve, in its sole discretion. No prepayment charge, Breakage Costs or Yield Maintenance Premium shall be payable by Borrower by reason of a Casualty or Condemnation.

 

(d)In the event of foreclosure of the Security Instrument, or other transfer of title to the Property in extinguishment in whole or in part of the Debt all right, title and interest of Borrower in and to the Policies that are not blanket Policies then in force concerning the Property and all proceeds payable thereunder shall thereupon vest in the purchaser at such foreclosure or Lender or other transferee in the event of such other Transfer of title.

RESERVE FUNDS

 

Section 7.1Tax and Insurance Escrow.

 

7.1.1Tax and Insurance Escrow Funds. Commencing on the first Payment Date after the date on which Substantial Completion occurs, Borrower shall either (i) draw from the undisbursed Loan proceeds and use such funds to pay or (ii) if there are no undisbursed Loan proceeds, to the extent permitted pursuant to the terms hereof, pay to Lender on each Payment Date (a) one-twelfth (1/12) of the Property Taxes that Lender estimates will be payable during the next ensuing twelve (12) months in order to accumulate with Lender sufficient funds to pay all such Property Taxes at least thirty (30) days prior to their respective due dates, and (b) one-twelfth (1/12) of the Insurance Premiums that Lender estimates will be payable for the renewal of the coverage afforded by the Policies upon the expiration thereof in order to accumulate with Lender sufficient funds to pay all such Insurance Premiums at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the Policies (the foregoing amounts so deposited with Lender are hereinafter called the “Tax and Insurance Escrow Funds” and the account in which such amounts are held shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Tax and Insurance Escrow Account”). At Lender’s option, the Tax and Insurance Escrow Account shall be maintained as a Subaccount of the Cash Management Account or be an account maintained by Servicer either at Servicer or at an Eligible Institution. Notwithstanding the previous requirements of this Section 7.1.1, Lender shall waive Borrower’s obligations to pay to Lender on each such Payment Date the payment described in clause (b) of this Section 7.1.1, for so long as the following conditions are met (any of which may be waived, in Lender’s sole and absolute discretion): (i) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing hereunder, (ii) the insurance coverage for the Property is included in a blanket policy insuring multiple properties and held by Borrower or an entity that Controls Borrower, which blanket policy is acceptable to Lender in its sole discretion, (iii) Borrower binds all applicable insurance prior to the then current expiration date of the blanket policy described in clause (ii) hereof, (iv) Guarantor shall satisfy all net worth and liquidity covenants set forth in the Guaranty (if any), and (iv) Borrower provides Lender evidence of renewal policies prior to the then current expiration date of the applicable policy (the conditions contained in the foregoing clauses (i)

148


 

through (iv), collectively, the “Insurance Escrow Funds Waiver Conditions”). If, at any time, Borrower fails to meet any of the Insurance Escrow Funds Waiver Conditions (and Lender has not opted to waive such condition in its sole and absolute discretion), commencing with the next applicable Payment Date and continuing on each Payment Date until such time as all Insurance Escrow Funds Waiver Conditions have again been met, Borrower shall deposit an amount equal to the product of (x) the resulting fraction where (A) the numerator is one (1), and (B) the denominator is the number of Payment Dates then remaining in the then current calendar year, and (y) the amount of Insurance Premiums that Lender reasonably estimates will be payable to obtain and subsequently retain policies of insurance which meet the requirements of Section 6.1 hereof. In addition to the foregoing, if Borrower fails to renew the policy or policies described in clause (ii) hereof by the date which is seven (7) days prior to the expiration thereof, Borrower agrees to notify Lender of such failure, and to keep Lender reasonably apprised of all developments in connection therewith, and if, following such notice, Lender reasonably believes that Borrower will be unable to bind the policy or policies described in clause (ii) prior to the expiration thereof, then Lender shall have the right, without notice to Borrower, to take such action as Lender deems necessary to protect its interest in the Property, including, without limitation, the obtaining of such insurance coverage as Lender in its sole discretion deems appropriate. All premiums incurred by Lender in connection with such action or in obtaining such insurance and keeping it in effect shall be paid by Borrower to Lender upon demand and, until paid, shall be secured by the Security Instrument and shall bear interest at the Default Rate.

 

7.1.2Disbursements from Tax and Insurance Escrow Funds. Provided no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Lender will apply the Tax and Insurance Escrow Funds to payments of Property Taxes and Insurance Premiums required to be made by Borrower pursuant to Section 5.1.2 hereof and under the Security Instrument. In making any payment relating to the Tax and Insurance Escrow Funds, Lender may do so according to any bill, statement or estimate procured from the appropriate public office (with respect to Property Taxes) or insurer or agent (with respect to Insurance Premiums), without inquiry into the accuracy of such bill, statement or estimate or into the validity of any Tax, assessment, sale, forfeiture, Tax lien or title or claim thereof. If the amount of the Tax and Insurance Escrow Funds shall exceed the amounts due for Property Taxes and Insurance Premiums pursuant to Section 5.1.2 hereof, Lender shall, in its sole discretion, return any excess to Borrower or credit such excess against future payments to be made to the Tax and Insurance Escrow Account. Any amount remaining in the Tax and Insurance Escrow Account after the Debt has been paid in full shall be returned to Borrower. In allocating such excess, Lender may deal with the Person shown on the records of Lender to be the owner of the Property. If at any time Lender reasonably determines that the Tax and Insurance Escrow Funds are not or will not be sufficient to pay Property Taxes and Insurance Premiums by the due dates thereof, Lender shall notify Borrower of such determination and Borrower shall increase its monthly payments to Lender by the amount that Lender estimates is sufficient to make up the deficiency at least thirty (30) days prior to the due date of the Property Taxes and/or thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the Policies, as the case may be.

 

Section 7.2Excess Cash Reserve Funds. In the event that cash management described in Section 2.7.2 hereof is then in effect, all Excess Cash shall be collected by Lender and all such amounts shall be held by Lender as additional security for the Obligations (amounts so held shall be hereinafter referred to as the “Excess Cash Reserve Funds” and the account to which such amounts are held shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Excess Cash Reserve Account”). At

149


 

Lender’s option, the Excess Cash Reserve Account shall be maintained as a Subaccount of the Cash Management Account or be an account maintained by Servicer either at Servicer or at an Eligible Institution.

 

Section 7.3Intentionally Blank.

 

Section 7.4Reserve Funds, Generally.

 

(a)Borrower (i) hereby grants to Lender a first priority security interest in all of the Reserve Funds and any and all monies now or hereafter deposited in each Reserve Account as additional security for payment and performance of the Obligations and (ii) will take all actions necessary to maintain in favor of Lender a perfected first priority security interest in the Reserve Funds, including, without limitation, filing or authorizing Lender to file UCC-1 financing statements and continuations thereof. Until expended or applied in accordance herewith, the Reserve Funds shall constitute additional security for the Obligations.

 

(b)Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender may, in addition to any and all other rights and remedies available to Lender, apply any sums then present in any or all of the Reserve Funds to the reduction of the Outstanding Principal Balance in any order in its sole discretion.

 

(c)Borrower shall not further pledge, assign or grant any security interest in any Reserve Fund or the monies deposited therein or permit any Lien or encumbrance to attach thereto, or any levy to be made thereon, or any UCC-1 financing statements, except those naming Lender as the secured party, to be filed with respect thereto.

 

(d)The Reserve Funds shall not constitute trust funds and may be commingled with other monies held by Lender. No earnings or interest on the Reserve Funds shall be payable to Borrower. Neither Lender nor any Servicer that at any time holds or maintains the Reserve Funds shall have any obligation to keep or maintain such Reserve Funds or any funds deposited therein in interest bearing accounts. If Lender or any Servicer elects in its sole and absolute discretion to keep or maintain any Reserve Funds or any funds deposited therein in an interest bearing account, (i) such funds shall not be invested except in Permitted Investments, and (ii) all interest earned or accrued thereon shall be for the benefit of and be retained by Lender or any Servicer. Lender shall not be responsible and shall have no liability whatsoever for the rate of return earned or losses incurred on the investment of any Reserve Funds in Permitted Investments.

 

(e)Borrower shall indemnify Lender and hold Lender harmless from and against any and all actions, suits, claims, demands, liabilities, losses, damages, obligations and costs and expenses (including litigation costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) arising from or in any way connected with the Reserve Funds or the performance of the obligations for which the Reserve Funds were established. Borrower shall assign to Lender all rights and claims Borrower may have against all Persons supplying labor, materials or other services which are to be paid from or secured by the Reserve Funds; provided, however, that Lender may not pursue any such right or claim, unless an Event of Default has occurred and remains uncured.

8.1.1Remedies.

154


 

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

 

(b)With respect to Borrower and the Property, nothing contained herein or in any other Loan Document shall be construed as requiring Lender to resort to the Property for the satisfaction of any of the Debt in any preference or priority, and Lender may seek satisfaction out of the Property, or any part thereof, in its absolute discretion in respect of the Debt. In addition, Lender shall have the right from time to time to partially foreclose the Security Instrument in any manner and for any amounts secured by the Security Instrument then due and payable as determined by Lender in its sole discretion, including, without limitation, the following circumstances: (i) in the event Borrower defaults beyond any applicable grace period in the payment of one or more scheduled payments of principal and interest, Lender may foreclose the Security Instrument to recover such delinquent payments or (ii) in the event Lender elects to accelerate less than the entire Outstanding Principal Balance, Lender may foreclose the Security Instrument to recover so much of the Debt as Lender may accelerate and such other sums secured by the Security Instrument as Lender may elect. Notwithstanding one or more partial foreclosures, the Property shall remain subject to the Security Instrument to secure payment of sums secured by the Security Instrument and not previously recovered.

 

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

155


 

Lender of Lender’s intent to exercise its rights under such power. Except as may be required in connection with a Securitization pursuant to Section 9.1 hereof, (i) Borrower shall not be obligated to pay any costs or expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, execution, recording or filing of the Severed Loan Documents, and (ii) the Severed Loan Documents shall not contain any representations, warranties or covenants not contained in the Loan Documents and any such representations and warranties contained in the Severed Loan Documents will be given by Borrower only as of the Closing Date.

 

(d)Lender shall have the right from time to time to partially foreclose the Security Instrument in any manner and for any amounts secured by the Security Instrument then due and payable as determined by Lender in its sole discretion, including the following circumstances: (i) in the event Borrower defaults beyond any applicable grace period in the payment of one or more scheduled payments of principal and/or interest, Lender may foreclose the Security Instrument to recover such delinquent payments, or (ii) in the event Lender elects to accelerate less than the entire Outstanding Principal Balance, Lender may foreclose the Security Instrument to recover so much of the Debt as Lender may accelerate and such other sums secured by the Security Instrument as Lender may elect. Notwithstanding one or more partial foreclosures, the Property shall remain subject to the Security Instrument to secure payment of sums secured by the Security Instrument and not previously recovered.

 

(e)Any amounts recovered from the Property or any other collateral for the Loan after an Event of Default may be applied by Lender toward the payment of any interest and/or principal of the Loan and/or any other amounts due under the Loan Documents in such order, priority and proportions as Lender in its sole discretion shall determine.

 

(f)If an Event of Default exists, Lender may (directly or by its agents, employees, contractors, engineers, architects, nominees, attorneys or other representatives), but without any obligation to do so and without notice to Borrower and without releasing Borrower from any obligation hereunder, cure the Event of Default in such manner and to such extent as Lender may deem necessary to protect the security hereof. Subject to Tenant’ rights under the Leases, and Unit Purchasers, Lender (and its agents, employees, contractors, engineers, architects, nominees, attorneys or other representatives) are authorized to enter upon the Property to cure such Event of Default, and Lender is authorized to appear in, defend, or bring any action or proceeding reasonably necessary to maintain, secure or otherwise protect the Property or any portion thereof or the priority of the Lien granted by the Security Instrument.

 

(g)Lender may appear in and defend any action or proceeding brought with respect to the Property or any portion thereof and may bring any action or proceeding, in the name and on behalf of Borrower, which Lender, in its sole discretion, decides should be brought to protect its interest in the Property. Lender shall, at its option, be subrogated to the Lien of any mortgage or other security instrument discharged in whole or in part by the Obligations, and any such subrogation rights shall constitute additional security for the payment of the Obligations.

 

(h)As used in this Section 8.1.1, a “foreclosure” shall include, without limitation, a power of sale.

156


 

8.1.2Remedies Cumulative; Waivers. The rights, powers and remedies of Lender under this Agreement shall be, subject to Section 3.1, cumulative and not exclusive of any other right, power or remedy which Lender may have against Borrower pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or existing at law or in equity or otherwise. Lender’s rights, powers and remedies may be pursued singularly, concurrently or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Lender may determine in Lender’s sole discretion. No delay or omission to exercise any remedy, right or power accruing upon an Event of Default shall impair any such remedy, right or power or shall be construed as a waiver thereof, but any such remedy, right or power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. A waiver of one Default or Event of Default with respect to Borrower shall not be construed to be a waiver of any subsequent Default or Event of Default by Borrower or to impair any remedy, right or power consequent thereon.

 

8.1.3Construction Related Remedies. Upon the occurrence and thereafter during the continuance of an Event of Default:

 

(a)Right to Stop Disbursing Funds. In addition to any other rights and remedies which Lender may have pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (but subject to the terms of the Guaranty applicable to the Guarantor’s right to access Undisbursed Loan proceeds and Escrow Funds) or pursuant to law or equity, and without limitation thereof, (i) so long as a Monetary Default, other material Default, or an Event of Default shall exist, Lender may decline to make all or any portion of such further Disbursements of any unadvanced portion of the Loan as Lender may elect and/or (ii) so long as an Event of Default shall exist, any or all obligations of Lender under this Agreement, at the option of Lender, shall cease and terminate; provided, however, Lender may make all or any portion of any Disbursements of any unadvanced portion of the Loan so long as any such Monetary Default, other material Default, or an Event of Default shall exist without thereby becoming obligated to make all or a portion of any other or further Disbursements of any unadvanced portion of the Loan or waiving Lender’s right to exercise any of Lender’s rights and remedies pursuant to any one or more of the Loan Documents or as may be available at law or equity.

 

(b)Right to Complete. In addition to any other rights and remedies which Lender may have under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or pursuant to law or equity, and without limitation thereof, after the occurrence of any Event of Default and upon acceleration of the Loan, Lender may enter upon the Property and into possession of the Property and any other Property (and exclude Borrower and any other persons therefrom) and cause Final Completion of the construction of the Project in accordance with the Plans and Specifications in all material respects, with such changes therein as Lender may from time to time deem appropriate (provided that Borrower’s obligations hereunder (and Guarantor’s obligations under the Completion Guaranty) shall not include (i) any increases in the total cost of Final Completion caused solely as a result of alterations to the Project that are not in accordance with the Plans and Specifications in all material respects and that are performed by or at the direction of Lender following an Event of Default or (ii) any increases in the total cost of Final Completion caused solely by Lender’s intentional misconduct or gross negligence), all at the sole risk, cost and expense of Borrower. Lender shall have the right, at any and all times, in its sole discretion to discontinue any work commenced by Lender with respect to the construction of the Project or to change any course of action undertaken by it and shall not be bound by any limitations or

157


 

requirements of time whether set forth herein or otherwise. Upon acceleration of the Loan, Lender shall have the right and power (but shall not be obligated) to assume all or any portion of the obligations of Borrower under any or all Project documents as Lender may elect and to take over and use all or any part or parts of the labor, materials, supplies and equipment contracted for by or on behalf of Borrower, whether or not previously incorporated into the Property. In connection with any portion of the construction of the Project undertaken by Lender pursuant to the provisions of this Section 8.1.3, Lender may do any or all of the following as Lender, in its sole discretion, may elect:

 

(i)engage builders, general contractors, general and trade contractors, suppliers, architects, engineers, inspectors and others for the purpose of furnishing labor, materials, equipment and fixtures in connection with the construction of the Improvements;

 

(ii)amend, modify or terminate any then existing contracts between Borrower and any of the persons described in the preceding clause (i);

 

(iii)pay, settle or compromise all bills or claims which may become Liens against the Property, or which have been or may be incurred in any manner in connection with the construction of the Project or for the discharge of liens, encumbrances or defects in the title of the Property; and

 

(iv)take such other action (including the employment of watchmen and the taking of other measures to protect the Property) or refrain from acting under this Agreement as Lender may in its sole and absolute discretion from time to time determine without any limitation whatsoever.

 

(c)Sums Advanced. Borrower shall be liable to Lender for all sums paid or incurred for the construction of the Project pursuant to the provisions of this Section 8.1.3 (except to the extent it is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, beyond right of appeal, that such liabilities arose solely and directly out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Lender or any increases in the total cost of Final Completion caused solely as a result of alterations to the Project that are not in accordance with the Plans and Specifications in all material respects other than alterations to the Project that are required to be made to comply with Legal Requirements, Unit Sale Contracts or the Condominium Documents and that are performed by or at the direction of Lender following an Event of Default), all of which shall be paid by Borrower to Lender upon demand with interest at the Default Rate to the date of payment to Lender, and all of the foregoing sums, including such interest at the Default Rate, shall be deemed and shall constitute Disbursements under this Agreement and be evidenced by the Note and secured by the Security Documents.

Lender may forward to each purchaser, transferee, assignee, servicer, participant or investor in such participations or Securities (collectively, the “Investor”) or any Rating Agency rating such Securities, each prospective Investor, and any organization maintaining databases on the underwriting and performance of commercial mortgage loans, all documents and information which Lender now has or may hereafter acquire relating to the Loan or to Borrower, any Guarantor or the Property, whether furnished by Borrower, any Guarantor or otherwise, as Lender determines necessary or desirable, including, without limitation, financial statements relating to Borrower, Guarantor, the Property and any Tenant at the Property. Borrower irrevocably waives any and all rights it may have under law or in equity to prohibit such disclosure, including but not limited to any right of privacy. Any assignee shall be treated as a Lender for all purposes hereunder. Any purchaser of a participation interest shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.11 and Section 5.1.24 as if it were a Lender hereunder (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 2.11(e) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.11(e) shall be delivered to the participating Lender). NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY CONTAINED HEREIN, LENDER SHALL HAVE NO RIGHT TO ISSUE MORTGAGE PASS-THROUGH CERTIFICATES OR OTHER SECURITIES EVIDENCING A BENEFICIAL INTEREST IN A RATED OR UNRATED PUBLIC OFFERING OR PRIVATE PLACEMENT OR ENGAGE IN ANY OTHER CMBS OR SIMILAR SECURITIZATION OF THE LOAN.

The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and Borrower and Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

 

(c)Participant Register. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any participant or any information relating to a participant’s

159


 

interest in any commitments, loans, or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.

 

Section 9.2Cooperation. Borrower, agrees (and agrees to cause Guarantor) to cooperate with Lender (and agrees to cause their respective officers and representatives to cooperate) in connection with any transfer made or any Securities created pursuant to this Article IX, including, without limitation, the taking, or refraining from taking, of such action as may be necessary to satisfy all of the conditions of any Investor, the delivery of an estoppel certificate required in accordance with Section 5.1.15 hereof and such other documents as may be reasonably requested by Lender, and the execution of amendments to this Agreement, the Note, the Security Instrument and other Loan Documents and Borrower’s organizational documents as reasonably requested by Lender; provided that (i) Borrower shall be reimbursed for its reasonable costs and expenses in connection with its obligations under this Section 9.2 and Lender shall bear its own costs and expenses under this Section 9.2 and (ii) no changes to the Loan Documents shall be required which will result in an increase in the aggregate debt or monthly debt service payments. Borrower shall also furnish and Borrower and Guarantor consent to Lender furnishing to such Investors or prospective Investors or any Rating Agency any and all information concerning the Property, the Leases, the financial condition of Borrower and Guarantor as may be requested by Lender, any Investor, any prospective Investor or any Rating Agency in connection with any sale, transfer or participations or Securities and shall indemnify the Indemnified Parties against, and hold the Indemnified Parties harmless from, any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (collectively, the “Liabilities”) to which any such Indemnified Parties may become subject insofar as the Liabilities arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or allegedly untrue statement of any material fact contained in a Disclosure Document or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated in the Disclosure Document or necessary in order to make the statements in the Disclosure Document, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading and agreeing to reimburse the Indemnified Parties for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by each of them in connection with investigating or defending the Liabilities; provided, however, that Borrower will be liable in any such case under this Section 9.2 only to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any such untrue statement or omission made therein in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to Lender by or on behalf of Borrower in connection with the preparation of the Disclosure Document or in connection with the underwriting or closing of the Loan, including, without limitation, financial statements of Borrower, operating statements and rent rolls with respect to the Property. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which Borrower may otherwise have and shall survive the termination of the Security Instrument and the satisfaction and discharge of the Debt.

 

Section 9.3Servicer. At the option of Lender, the Loan may be serviced by a master servicer, primary servicer, special servicer and/or trustee (any such master servicer, primary servicer, special servicer, and/or trustee, together with its agents, nominees or designees, are collectively referred to as “Servicer”) selected by Lender and Lender may delegate all or any

160


 

portion of its responsibilities under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to Servicer pursuant to a pooling and servicing agreement, servicing agreement, special servicing agreement or other agreement providing for the servicing of one or more mortgage loans (collectively, the “Servicing Agreement”) between Lender and Servicer. Borrower shall be responsible for any reasonable set up fees or any other initial costs relating to or arising under the Servicing Agreement, but Borrower shall not be responsible for payment of the regular monthly master servicing fee or trustee fee due to Servicer under the Servicing Agreement or any fees or expenses required to be borne by, and not reimbursable to, Servicer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower shall promptly reimburse Lender on demand for (a) interest payable on advances made by Servicer with respect to delinquent debt service payments (to the extent interest at the Default Rate actually paid by Borrower in respect of such payments are insufficient to pay the same) or expenses paid by Servicer or trustee in respect of the protection and preservation of the Property or any portion thereof (including, without limitation, on account of Basic Carrying Costs), (b) all costs and expenses, liquidation fees, workout fees, special servicing fees, operating advisor fees or any other similar fees payable by Lender to Servicer which may be due and payable under the Servicing Agreement (whether on a periodic or a continuing basis) as a result of an Event of Default under the Loan, the Loan becoming specially serviced, the commencement or continuance of any enforcement action of any kind with respect to the Loan or any of the Loan Documents, a refinancing or a restructuring of the credit arrangements provided under this Agreement in the nature of a “work-out” of the Loan Documents, or any Bankruptcy Action involving Borrower, Pledgor, Principal, Guarantor or any of their respective principals or Affiliates, (c) all costs and expenses of any Property inspections and/or Appraisals (or any updates to any existing inspection or Appraisal) that Servicer or the trustee may be required to obtain (other than the cost of regular annual inspections required to be borne by Servicer under the Servicing Agreement), and (d) all costs and expenses relating to or arising from any special requests made by Borrower or Guarantor during the term of the Loan including, without limitation, in connection with a prepayment, defeasance, assumption or modification of the Loan.

 

Section 9.4Restructuring of Loan.

 

(a)Lender, without in any way limiting Lender’s other rights hereunder, in its sole and absolute discretion, shall have the right at any time to require Borrower to restructure the Loan into additional multiple notes (which may include component notes and/or senior and junior notes), to re-allocate principal among component notes and/or senior and junior notes and/or to create participation interests in the Loan, which restructuring may include the restructuring of a portion of the Loan to one or more of the foregoing or to one or more mezzanine loans (the “New Mezzanine Loan”) to the direct or indirect owners of the equity interests in Borrower, secured by a pledge of such interests, the establishment of different interest rates and debt service payments for the Loan, and the New Mezzanine Loan and the payment of the Loan, and the New Mezzanine Loan in such order of priority as may be designated by Lender; provided that (i) the total principal amounts of the Loan (including any component notes), and the New Mezzanine Loan shall equal the total principal amount of the Loan immediately prior to the restructuring, (ii) except in the case of the occurrence of an Event of Default or a default beyond all notice and cure periods under the New Mezzanine Loan, the weighted average interest rate of the Loan and the New Mezzanine Loan, if any, shall, in the aggregate, equal the Interest Rate, (iii) except in the case of the occurrence of an Event of Default and/or a default beyond all notice and cure periods under the

(c)Lender shall be responsible for Borrower’s and Lender’s costs and expenses incurred in connection with the restructuring transactions contemplated by this Section 9.4.

 

(d)In the event Borrower fails to execute and deliver such documents described in this Section 9.4 to Lender within ten (10) Business Days’ following such written notice by Lender, and Lender sends a second notice to Borrower with respect to the delivery of such documents containing a legend clearly marked in not less than fourteen (14) point bold face type, underlined, in all capital letters “POWER OF ATTORNEY IN FAVOR OF LENDER DEEMED EFFECTIVE FOR EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF DOCUMENTS IF NO RESPONSE WITHIN 10 BUSINESS DAYS”, Borrower hereby absolutely and irrevocably appoints Lender as its true and lawful attorney, coupled with an interest, in its name and stead to make and execute all documents necessary or desirable to effect such transactions, Borrower ratifying all that such attorney shall do by virtue thereof, if Borrower fails to execute and deliver such documents within ten (10) Business Days of delivery of such second notice. It shall be an Event of Default if Borrower fails to comply with any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Section 9.4 after the expiration of ten (10) Business Days after delivery of the second notice thereof.

 

Section 9.5Lender as Agent. So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Lender agrees that (i) to the extent any portion of the Loan is participated, syndicated or otherwise transferred, Initial Lender shall serve as the “administrative agent” with respect to the Loan and will oversee the general administration of the Loan, subject to any usual and customary

162


 

approval rights that may be granted to other lenders hereunder from time to time and (ii) with respect to any requests for approval hereunder, Borrower shall only be required to make such requests to Initial Lender.

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

 

Section 10.12Remedies of Borrower. In the event that a claim or adjudication is made that Lender or its agents have acted unreasonably or unreasonably delayed acting in any case where by law or under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents Lender or such agent, as the case may be, has an obligation to act reasonably or promptly, Borrower agrees that neither Lender nor its agents shall be liable for any monetary damages, and Borrower’s sole remedies shall be limited to commencing an action seeking injunctive relief or declaratory judgment. The parties hereto agree that any action or proceeding to determine whether Lender has acted reasonably shall be determined by an action seeking declaratory judgment. Further, it is agreed Lender shall not be in default under this Agreement, or under any other Loan Document, unless a written notice specifically setting forth the claim of Borrower shall have been given to Lender within thirty (30) days after Borrower first had knowledge of the occurrence of the event which Borrower alleges gave rise to such claim and Lender does not remedy or cure the default, if any there be, promptly thereafter. Failure to give such notice shall constitute a waiver of such claim.

 

Section 10.13Expenses; Indemnity.

 

(a)Borrower covenants and agrees to pay or, if Borrower fails to pay, to reimburse, Lender upon receipt of notice from Lender for all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred by Lender in connection with (i) the preparation, negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and all the costs of furnishing all opinions by counsel for Borrower (including without limitation any opinions

167


 

requested by Lender as to any legal matters arising under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents with respect to the Property or any portion thereof); (ii) Borrower’s ongoing performance of and compliance with Borrower’s respective agreements and covenants contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents on its part to be performed or complied with after the Closing Date, including, without limitation, confirming compliance with environmental and insurance requirements; (iii) Lender’s ongoing performance and compliance with all agreements and conditions contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents on its part to be performed or complied with after the Closing Date; (iv) the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and administration of any consents, amendments, waivers or other modifications to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other documents or matters requested by Lender; (v) securing Borrower’s compliance with any requests made pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement; (vi) the filing and recording fees and expenses, title insurance and reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for providing to Lender all required legal opinions, and other similar expenses incurred in creating and perfecting the Liens in favor of Lender pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; (vii) enforcing or preserving any rights, either in response to third-party claims or in prosecuting or defending any action or proceeding or other litigation, in each case against, under or affecting Borrower, this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Property or any portion thereof, or any other security given for the Loan; and (viii) enforcing any obligations of or collecting any payments due from Borrower under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or with respect to the Property or any portion thereof (including any fees and expenses reasonably incurred by or payable to Servicer or a trustee in connection with the transfer of the Loan to a special servicer upon Servicer’s anticipation of a Default or Event of Default, liquidation fees, workout fees, special servicing fees, operating advisor fees or any other similar fees and interest payable on advances made by the Servicer with respect to delinquent debt service payments or expenses of curing Borrower’s defaults under the Loan Documents), or in connection with any refinancing or restructuring of the credit arrangements provided under this Agreement in the nature of a “work-out” or of any insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings or any other amounts required under Section 9.3; provided, however, that Borrower shall not be liable for the payment of any such costs and expenses to the extent the same arise by reason of the gross negligence, illegal acts, fraud or willful misconduct of Lender. Any cost and expenses due and payable to Lender may be paid from any amounts in the Clearing Account or the Cash Management Account, as applicable.

 

(b)Borrower shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Indemnified Parties from and against any and all Losses that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against any Indemnified Party in any manner relating to or arising out of (i) any breach by Borrower of its Obligations under, or any material misrepresentation by Borrower contained in, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or (ii) the use or intended use of the proceeds of the Loan (the liabilities, losses, costs, expenses and other matters described in this subparagraph (b), collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”); provided, however, that Borrower shall not have any obligation to an Indemnified Party hereunder to the extent that such Indemnified Liabilities arise from the gross negligence, illegal acts, fraud or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party. To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify, defend and hold harmless set forth in the preceding sentence may be unenforceable because it violates any law or public policy, Borrower shall pay the maximum portion that it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by the Indemnified Parties.

168


 

(c)Borrower covenants and agrees to pay or, if Borrower fails to pay, to reimburse Lender for, any fees and expenses incurred by any Rating Agency in connection with any Rating Agency review of the Loan, the Loan Documents or any transaction contemplated thereby or any consent, approval, waiver or confirmation obtained from such Rating Agency pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document and Lender shall be entitled to require payment of such fees and expenses as a condition precedent to the obtaining of any such consent, approval, waiver or confirmation.

 

(d)Borrower shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless each Indemnified Party against any Losses to which each such Indemnified Party may become subject (i) in connection with any indemnification to the Rating Agencies in connection with issuing, monitoring or maintaining the Securities and (ii) insofar as such Losses so incurred arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement of any material fact in any information provided by or on behalf of the Borrower or Guarantor to the Rating Agencies, if any (the “Covered Rating Agency Information”) or arise out of or are based upon the omission to state a material fact in the Covered Rating Agency Information required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements in the Covered Rating Agency Information, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

 

Section 10.14Schedules Incorporated. The Schedules annexed hereto are hereby incorporated herein as a part of this Agreement with the same effect as if set forth in the body hereof.

 

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

 

Section 10.16No Joint Venture or Partnership; No Third Party Beneficiaries.

 

(a)Borrower and Lender intend that the relationships created hereunder and under the other Loan Documents be solely that of borrower and lender. Nothing herein or therein is intended to create a joint venture, partnership, tenancy-in-common, or joint tenancy relationship between Borrower and Lender nor to grant Lender any interest in the Property other than that of mortgagee, beneficiary or lender.

 

(b)This Agreement and the other Loan Documents are solely for the benefit of Lender and Borrower and nothing contained in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to confer upon anyone other than Lender and Borrower any right to insist upon or to enforce the performance or observance of any of the Obligations contained herein or therein. All conditions to the obligations of Lender to make the Loan hereunder are imposed solely and exclusively for the benefit of Lender and no other Person shall have standing to require satisfaction of such conditions in accordance with their terms or be entitled to assume that Lender will refuse to

169


 

make the Loan in the absence of strict compliance with any or all thereof and no other Person shall under any circumstances be deemed to be a beneficiary of such conditions, any or all of which may be freely waived in whole or in part by Lender if, in Lender’s sole discretion, Lender deems it advisable or desirable to do so.

 

Section 10.17Publicity. All news releases, publicity or advertising by Borrower or its Affiliates through any media intended to reach the general public that refers to the Loan Documents or the financing evidenced by the Loan Documents, to Lender or any of its Affiliates, shall be subject to the prior approval of Lender. None of the Borrower or any of its Affiliates shall publicly disclose or file any Loan Document without the prior approval of Lender (except that this Loan Agreement, exclusive of the exhibits and schedules hereto, may be publicly filed to the extent required by applicable securities laws and regulations of the Securities Exchange Commission).

 

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

 

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

 

Section 10.20Conflict; Construction of Documents; Reliance. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and those of any of the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Agreement shall control. The parties hereto acknowledge that they were represented by competent counsel in connection with the negotiation, drafting and execution of the Loan Documents and that such Loan Documents shall not be subject to the principle of construing their meaning against the party that drafted same. Borrower acknowledges that, with respect to the Loan, Borrower shall rely solely on its own judgment and advisors in entering into the Loan without relying in any manner on any statements, representations or recommendations of Lender or any Affiliate of Lender. Lender shall not be subject to any limitation whatsoever in the exercise of any rights or remedies available to it under any of the Loan Documents or any other agreements or instruments that govern the Loan by virtue of the ownership by it or any parent, subsidiary or Affiliate of Lender of any equity interest any of them may acquire in Borrower, and Borrower hereby irrevocably waives the right to raise any defense or take any action on the basis of the foregoing with respect to Lender’s exercise of any such rights or remedies. Borrower acknowledges that Lender engages in the business of real estate financings and other real estate transactions and investments that may be viewed as adverse to or competitive with the business of Borrower or its Affiliates.

170


 

Section 10.21Brokers and Financial Advisors. Other than the payment of any and all commissions or similar fees owed to Jones Lang LaSalle (the “Broker”) in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, Borrower hereby represents that it has dealt with no financial advisors, brokers, underwriters, placement agents, agents or finders in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Lender harmless from and against any and all claims, liabilities, costs and expenses of any kind (including Lender’s attorneys’ fees and expenses) in any way relating to or arising from a claim by Broker or any other Person that such Person acted on behalf of Borrower or Lender in connection with the transactions contemplated herein. The provisions of this Section 10.21 shall survive the expiration and termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Debt.

 

Section 10.22Prior Agreements. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents contain the entire agreement of the parties hereto and thereto in respect of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and all prior agreements among or between such parties, whether oral or written, including, without limitation, the letter agreement dated September 15, 2014 between Blackstone Real Estate Special Situations Advisors L.L.C. (an affiliate of Lender) and accepted by Grant Herlitz as President on behalf of Borrower and Guarantor (an affiliate of Borrower), are superseded by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

 

Section 10.23Cumulative Rights. All of the rights of Lender under this Agreement hereunder and under each of the other Loan Documents, and any other agreement now or hereafter executed in connection herewith or therewith, shall be cumulative and may be exercised singly, together, or in such combination as Lender may determine in its sole judgment.

 

Section 10.24Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which when executed and delivered is an original, but all of which together shall constitute one instrument. In making proof of this Agreement, it shall not be necessary to produce or account for more than one such counterpart that is executed by the party against whom enforcement of this Agreement is sought.

 

Section 10.25Time Is of the Essence. Time is of the essence of each provision of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

 

Section 10.26Consent of Holder. Wherever this Agreement refers to Lender’s consent or discretion or other rights, such references to Lender shall be deemed to refer to any holder of the Loan. The holder of the Loan may from time to time appoint a trustee or Servicer, and Borrower shall be entitled to rely upon written instructions executed by a purported officer of the holder of the Loan as to the extent of authority delegated to any such trustee or Servicer from time to time and determinations made by such trustee or Servicer to the extent identified as within the delegated authority of such trustee or Servicer, unless and until such instructions are superseded by further written instructions from the holder of the Loan.

 

Section 10.27Successor Laws. Any reference in this Agreement to any statute or regulation shall be deemed to include any successor statute or regulation.

 

Section 10.28Performance by Borrower and Lender; Reliance on Third Parties. Lender may perform any of its responsibilities hereunder through one or more agents, attorneys or

171


 

independent contractors. In addition, Lender may conclusively rely upon the advice or determinations of any such agents, attorneys or independent contractors in performing any discretionary function under the terms of this Agreement. Wherever this Agreement refers to Borrower’s obligation to cause action by Pledgor or Guarantor regarding the observance, performance or satisfaction of any term, provision, covenant or condition contained herein, such obligation with respect to Borrower shall be interpreted to mean that Borrower shall not suffer or permit such party to fail to observe, perform or satisfy any such term, provision or covenant contained herein.

 

Section 10.29Joint and Several Liability; Right of Contribution. If more than one Person has executed this Agreement as “Borrower,” the representations, covenants, warranties and obligations of all such Persons hereunder shall be joint and several. Each entity that constitutes Borrower (for purposes of this Section 10.29 only, each a “Borrower” and collectively, “Borrowers”) acknowledges and agrees that it shall be jointly and severally liable for the Loan and all other Obligations arising under this Agreement and/or any of the other Loan Documents. In furtherance thereof, each Borrower acknowledges and agrees as follows:

 

(a)For the purpose of implementing the joint borrower provisions of the Loan Documents, each Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints each other Borrower as its agent and attorney-in-fact for all purposes of the Loan Documents, including the giving and receiving of notices and other communications.

 

(b)To induce Lender to make the Loan, and in consideration thereof, each Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify Lender against, and hold Lender harmless from, any and all liabilities, expenses, losses, damages and/or claims of damage or injury asserted against Lender by any Borrower or by any other Person arising from or incurred by reason of (i) reliance by Lender on any requests or instructions from any Borrower, or (ii) any other action taken by Lender in good faith with respect to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

 

(c)Each Borrower acknowledges that the liens and security interests created or granted herein and by the other Loan Documents will secure the Obligations of all Borrowers under the Loan Documents and, in full recognition of that fact, each Borrower consents and agrees that Lender may, at any time and from time to time, without notice or demand, and without affecting the enforceability or security hereof or of any other Loan Document:

 

(i)agree with any Borrower to supplement, modify, amend, extend, renew, accelerate, or otherwise change the time for payment or the terms of the Obligations or any part thereof, including any increase or decrease of the rate(s) of interest thereon;

 

(ii)agree with any Borrower to supplement, modify, amend or waive, or enter into or give any agreement, approval or consent with respect to, the Obligations or any part thereof or any of the Loan Documents or any additional security or guaranties, or any condition, covenant, default, remedy, right, representation or term thereof or thereunder;

172


 

(iii)accept new or additional instruments, documents or agreements in exchange for or relative to any of the Loan Documents or the Obligations or any part thereof;

 

(iv)accept partial payments on the Obligations;

 

(v)receive and hold additional security or guaranties for the Obligations or any part thereof;

 

(vi)release, reconvey, terminate, waive, abandon, subordinate, exchange, substitute, transfer and enforce any security for or guaranties of the Obligations, and apply any security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as Lender, in its sole and absolute discretion, may determine;

 

(vii)release any Person or any guarantor from any personal liability with respect to the Obligations or any part thereof; or

 

(viii)settle, release on terms satisfactory to Lender or by operation of applicable laws or otherwise liquidate or enforce any Obligations and any security therefor or guaranty thereof in any manner, consent to the transfer of any such security and bid and purchase at any sale; and consent to the merger, change or any other restructuring or termination of the corporate existence of any Borrower or any other Person, and correspondingly restructure the obligations of such Borrower or other Person, and any such merger, change, restructuring or termination shall not affect the liability of any Borrower or the continuing existence of any lien or security interest hereunder, or under any other Loan Document to which any Borrower is a party, or the enforceability hereof or thereof with respect to all or any part of the Obligations.

 

(d)Upon the occurrence of and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Lender may enforce this Agreement and the other Loan Documents independently as to each Borrower and independently of any other remedy or security Lender at any time may have or hold in connection with the Obligations, and in collecting on the Loan it shall not be necessary for Lender to marshal assets in favor of any Borrower or any other Person or to proceed upon or against and/or exhaust any other security or remedy before proceeding to enforce this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each Borrower expressly waives any right to require Lender, in connection with Lender’s efforts to obtain repayment of the Loan and Other Obligations, to marshal assets in favor of any Borrower or any other Person or to proceed against any other Person or any collateral provided by any other Person, and agrees that Lender may proceed against any Persons and/or collateral in such order as it shall determine in its sole and absolute discretion in connection with Lender’s efforts to obtain repayment of the Loan and other Obligations. Lender may file a separate action or actions against each Borrower to enforce the Obligations, whether action is brought or prosecuted with respect to any other security or against any other Person, or whether any other Person is joined in any such action or actions. Each Borrower agrees that Lender, each Borrower and/or any other Person may deal with each other in connection with the Obligations or otherwise, or alter any contracts or agreements now or hereafter existing among any of them, in any manner whatsoever, all without in any way altering or affecting the security of this

173


 

Agreement or the other Loan Documents. The rights of Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall be reinstated and revived, and the enforceability of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall continue, with respect to any amount at any time paid on account of the Obligations, which thereafter shall be required to be restored or returned by Lender as a result of the bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of any Borrower or any other Person, or otherwise, all as though such amount had not been paid. The enforceability of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents at all times shall remain effective even though any or all Obligations, or any other security or guaranty therefor, may be or hereafter may become invalid or otherwise unenforceable as against any Borrower or any other Person and whether or not any Borrower or any other Person shall have any personal liability with respect thereto. Each Borrower expressly waives any and all defenses to the enforcement of its Obligations under the Loan Documents now or hereafter arising or asserted by reason of (i) any disability or other defense of any Borrower or any other Person with respect to the Obligations, (ii) the unenforceability or invalidity of any security or guaranty for the Obligations or the lack of perfection or continuing perfection or failure of priority of any security for the Obligations, (iii) the cessation for any cause whatsoever of the liability of any Borrower or any other Person (other than by reason of the full and final payment and performance of all Obligations), (iv) any failure of Lender to marshal assets in favor of any of the Borrowers or any other Person, (v) any failure of Lender to give notice of sale or other disposition of any Collateral or Pledged Collateral for the Obligations to Borrower or Pledgor or to any other Person or any defect in any notice that may be given in connection with any such sale or disposition, (vi) any failure of Lender to comply in any non-material respect with applicable laws in connection with the sale or other disposition of any collateral or other security for any Obligation, (vii) any act or omission of Lender or others that directly or indirectly results in or aids the discharge or release of any Borrower or of any other Person or of any of the Obligations or any other security or guaranty therefor by operation of law or otherwise, (viii) any law that provides that the obligation of a surety or guarantor must neither be larger in amount nor in other respects more burdensome than that of the principal or which reduces a surety’s or guarantor’s obligation in proportion to the principal obligation, (ix) any failure of Lender to file or enforce a claim in any bankruptcy or similar proceeding with respect to any Person, (x) the election by Lender, in any bankruptcy or similar proceeding of any Person, of the application or non-application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, (xi) any extension of credit or the grant of any lien under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code except to the extent otherwise provided in this Agreement, (xii) any use of cash collateral under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code, (xiii) any agreement or stipulation with respect to the provision of adequate protection in any bankruptcy or similar proceeding of any Person, (xiv) the avoidance of any lien or security interest in favor of Lender securing the Obligations for any reason, or (xv) any bankruptcy or similar proceeding commenced by or against any Person, including any discharge of, or bar or stay against collecting, all or any of the Obligations (or any interest thereon) in or as a result of any such proceeding.

 

(e)Borrowers represent and warrant to Lender that they have established adequate means of obtaining from each other, on a continuing basis, financial and other information pertaining to their respective businesses, operations and condition (financial and otherwise) and their respective properties, and each now is and hereafter will be completely familiar with the businesses, operations and condition (financial and otherwise) of the other and their respective properties. Each Borrower hereby expressly waives and relinquishes any duty on the part of Lender to disclose to such Borrower any matter, fact or thing related to the businesses,

174


 

operations or condition (financial or otherwise) of the other Borrowers or the other Borrowers’ properties, whether now known or hereafter known by Lender during the life of this Agreement. With respect to any of the Obligations, Lender need not inquire into the powers of any Borrower or the officers, employees or other Persons acting or purporting to act on such Borrower’s behalf.

 

(f)EACH BORROWER WARRANTS AND AGREES THAT EACH OF THE WAIVERS AND CONSENTS SET FORTH HEREIN IS MADE WITH FULL KNOWLEDGE OF ITS SIGNIFICANCE AND CONSEQUENCES, WITH THE UNDERSTANDING THAT EVENTS GIVING RISE TO ANY DEFENSE WAIVED MAY DIMINISH, DESTROY OR OTHERWISE ADVERSELY AFFECT RIGHTS THAT EACH OTHERWISE MAY HAVE AGAINST THE OTHER, AGAINST LENDER OR OTHERS, OR AGAINST ANY COLLATERAL. IF ANY OF THE WAIVERS OR CONSENTS HEREIN IS DETERMINED TO BE CONTRARY TO ANY APPLICABLE LAW OR PUBLIC POLICY, SUCH WAIVERS AND CONSENTS SHALL BE EFFECTIVE TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.

 

(g)Right of Contribution. Subject to the provisions of Section 10.29(f) above, in order to provide for just and equitable contribution among the Borrowers, in connection with the execution of the Loan Documents, the Guarantor has agreed that if any Borrower satisfies some or all of the Obligations (a “Funding Borrower”), the Funding Borrower shall be entitled to contribution from the other Borrower(s) that have positive Maximum Net Worth (as defined below) for all payments made by the Funding Borrower in satisfying the Obligations, so that each Borrower that remains obligated under the Loan Document at the time that a Funding Borrower makes such payment (a “Remaining Borrower”) and has a positive Maximum Net Worth shall bear a portion of such payment equal to the percentage that such Remaining Borrower’s Maximum Net Worth bears to the aggregate Maximum Net Worth of all Remaining Borrowers that have positive Maximum Net Worth.

 

As used herein, “Net Worth” means, with respect to any Borrower, the amount, as of the respective date of calculation, by which the sum of a Person’s assets (including subrogation, indemnity, contribution, reimbursement and similar rights that such Borrower may have), determined on the basis of a “fair valuation” or their “fair saleable value” (whichever is the applicable test under Section 548 and other relevant provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and the relevant state fraudulent conveyance or transfer laws), is greater than the amount that will be required to pay all of such Person’s debts, in each case matured or unmatured, contingent or otherwise, as of the date of calculation, but excluding liabilities arising under the Loan Documents and excluding, to the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Law with the objective of avoiding rendering such Person insolvent, liabilities subordinated to the Obligations arising out of loans or advances made to such Person by any other Person. “Maximum Net Worth” means, with respect to any Borrower, the greatest of the Net Worths of such Borrower calculated as of the following dates: (A) the date on which such Person becomes a Borrower, and (B) the date on which such Borrower expressly reaffirms its obligations under the Loan Documents. The meaning of the terms “fair valuation” and “fair saleable value” and the calculation of assets and liabilities shall be determined and made in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and applicable state fraudulent conveyance or transfer laws.
