b. Borrower shall not, during the Term, (i) grant to any third party, or permit or take any action that would lead to the filing of, any mortgage, lien, or security interest of any kind with respect to the Premises; or (ii) take any other action (or fail to take action) which would immediately or with the passage of time, constitute a breach of any of the Loan Documents or Lender’s rights under the Loan Documents.
c. Borrower has established and shall maintain at all times with Lender while any of the indebtedness evidenced by the Note remains unpaid a reserve for the payment of interest on the Loan (the “Interest Reserve”). Contemporaneously with the execution of this Agreement, Borrower has deposited the sum of $150,000.00 into the Interest Reserve out of the proceeds of the Loan. So long as Borrower is not in default under any of its obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, commencing May 1, 2021, and on the first day of each calendar month thereafter, funds in the Interest Reserve shall be advanced by Lender to itself in order to pay the monthly interest payments due under the Note. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that Borrower shall be solely responsible for timely paying the amounts due under the Note if (i) the balance of the Interest Reserve has been reduced to $0.00, or (ii) application of funds in the Interest Reserve has been suspended as a result of Borrower being in default of its obligations under this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents. If application of the Interest Reserve does not fully pay the applicable interest due and payable under the Note, Borrower shall pay the unpaid balance to Lender on or before the date the subject interest payment is due. In the event of a default by Borrower of its obligations under any of the Loan Agreements, the existing balance of the Interest Reserve shall constitute cash collateral under the terms of the applicable Loan Documents. Borrower acknowledges the Interest Reserve is funded from proceeds of the Loan and such proceeds constitute principal under the Note notwithstanding that Lender retains the Interest Reserve under the terms of this Agreement.

Borrower shall deliver to Lender financial statements for the calendar year within sixty (60) days after the end of the calendar year. For purposes of this Agreement, the aforesaid DSCR shall mean the ratio of all net operating income of the Premises to the interest-only debt service payable under the Note during the loan term. Interest payments will be based on an eight percent (8%)’per annum interest-only rate calculated for the actual number of days elapsed on the basis of a 360-day year. For the avoidance of doubt, the financial covenant set forth in this paragraph f. shall be calculated as of the end of each quarter and included within the financial statements to be delivered pursuant to paragraph d. above.
