Borrowers and Administrative Agent agree that this late charge represents a reasonable sum considering all of the circumstances existing on the date hereof and represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs that Administrative Agent and Lenders will incur by reason of late payment. Borrowers and Administrative Agent further agree that proof of actual damages would be costly and inconvenient. Acceptance of any late charge shall not constitute a waiver of the default with respect to the overdue installment, and shall not prevent Administrative Agent from exercising any of the other rights available hereunder or any other Loan Document. Such late charge shall be paid without prejudice to any other rights of Administrative Agent.

 

  (d) Computation of Interest. Interest shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which interest or fees accrue and a year of three hundred sixty (360) days on the principal balance of the Loan outstanding from time to time. In computing interest on the Loan, the date of the making of a disbursement under the Loan shall be included and the date of payment shall be excluded. Notwithstanding any provision in this Section 2.7, interest in respect of the Loan shall not exceed the maximum rate permitted by applicable law.

 

  (e)

Effective Rate. The “Effective Rate” upon which interest shall be calculated for the Loan shall, from and after the Effective Date of this Agreement, be one or more of the following; provided, except with respect to the portion of the outstanding principal balance of the Loan which is subject to a Swap Agreement with an initial term of at least two (2) years, or any shorter term which expires on the Maturity Date, the Effective Rate shall not be less than the Interest Rate Floor. (For clarity, (i) the Effective Rate applicable to any portion of the outstanding principal balance of the Loan which is subject to a Swap Agreement with an initial term of at least two (2) years shall not be subject to the Interest Rate Floor, (ii) the then-current term of the Swap Agreement need not be two (2) years in order to exempt such portion of the Loan from the Interest Rate Floor (i.e., the Interest Rate Floor shall not apply to any portion of the Loan that was subject to qualifying Swap Agreement for the term of such Swap Agreement and any extension thereof) and (iii) if less than two (2) years remains prior to the Maturity Date, then the portion of the outstanding principal

 

16


  balance of the Loan which is subject to a Swap Agreement with a term that expires on the Maturity Date shall not be subject to the Interest Rate Floor):

 

  (i) Provided no Default exists under this Agreement:

 

  (A) For those portions of the principal balance of the Notes which are not Fixed Rate Portions, the Effective Rate shall be the One-Month LIBO Rate determined by Administrative Agent, reset daily.

 

  (B) For those portions of the principal balance of the Notes which are Fixed Rate Portions, the Effective Rate for the Fixed Rate Period thereof shall be the Fixed Rate accepted by Borrowers for the Fixed Rate Period selected by Borrowers with respect to each Fixed Rate Portion and set in accordance with the provisions hereof.

 

  (C) With respect to any portion of the Loan then subject to a Swap Agreement, Borrowers may not select a rate of interest, including, without limitation, a Fixed Rate for a Fixed Rate Period, that is inconsistent with the terms of such Swap Agreement.

 

  (D) If any of the transactions necessary for the calculation of interest at any Fixed Rate requested or selected by Borrowers or at the One-Month LIBO Rate determined by Administrative Agent, reset daily, should be or become prohibited or unavailable to Administrative Agent, or, if in Administrative Agent ‘s good faith judgment, it is not possible or practical for Administrative Agent to set a Fixed Rate for a Fixed Rate Portion and Fixed Rate Period as requested or selected by Borrowers or to set a One-Month LIBO Rate on a daily basis, the Effective Rate for the principal balance of the Notes subject to such unavailable interest rate shall be replaced by a floating rate of interest equal to the Replacement Rate.

 

  (ii) During such time as a Default exists under this Agreement; or from and after the date on which all sums owing under the applicable Note becomes due and payable by acceleration or otherwise; or from and after the date on which the Collateral or any portion thereof or interest therein, is sold, transferred, mortgaged, assigned, or encumbered, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, or by operation of law or otherwise, without Administrative Agent’s prior written consent (except as otherwise permitted herein or in any of the Loan Documents) (whether or not the sums owing under the applicable Note becomes due and payable by acceleration); or from and after the Maturity Date, then at the option of Requisite Lenders in each case, the interest rate applicable to the then outstanding principal balance of the Loan shall be the Alternate Rate.

 

  (f) Selection of Fixed Rate. Provided no Default or Potential Default exists under this Agreement, Borrowers, at their option and upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth herein, may request a Fixed Rate as the Effective Rate for calculating interest on the portion of the unpaid principal balance and for the period selected in accordance with and subject to the following procedures and conditions, provided, however, that Borrowers may not have in effect at any one time more than five (5) Fixed Rates:

 

17


  (i) Borrowers shall deliver to the Los Angeles Loan Center, 2120 East Park Place, Suite 100, El Segundo, California, 90245, Attn: Azucena Dela Cruz, with a copy to: Lender, Real Estate Group, Orange County, 2030 Main Street, Suite 800, Irvine, CA 92614, Attention: Irie Dadabhoy, Vice President, or such other addresses as Administrative Agent shall designate, an original or facsimile Fixed Rate Notice no later than 9:00 A.M. (California time), and not less than three (3) nor more than five (5) Business Days prior to the proposed Fixed Rate Period for each Fixed Rate Portion. Any Fixed Rate Notice pursuant to this subsection (i) is irrevocable.

Administrative Agent is authorized to rely upon the telephonic request and acceptance of Kim Westerbeck, Lori Lewis, Stacie Yamane, Dave Snyder, Ann Marie Watters and Scott Christensen as Borrowers’ duly authorized agents, or such additional authorized agents as Borrowers shall designate in writing to Administrative Agent. Borrowers’ telephonic notices, requests and acceptances shall be directed to such officers of Administrative Agent as Administrative Agent may from time to time designate.

 

  (ii) Borrower may, with a timely and complying Fixed Rate Notice, elect (A) to convert all or a portion of the principal balance of the Notes which is accruing interest at the One-Month LIBO Rate determined by Administrative Agent, reset daily, to a Fixed Rate Portion, or (B) to convert a matured Fixed Rate Portion into a new Fixed Rate Portion, provided, however, that the aggregate amount of the advance being converted into or continued as a Fixed Rate Portion shall comply with the definition thereof as to Dollar amount. The conversion of a matured Fixed Rate Portion back to the One-Month LIBO Rate determined by Administrative Agent, reset daily, or to a new Fixed Rate Portion shall occur on the last Business Day of the Fixed Rate Period relating to such Fixed Rate Portion. Each Fixed Rate Notice shall specify (A) the amount of the Fixed Rate Portion, (B) the Fixed Rate Period, and (C) the Fixed Rate Commencement Date.

 

  (iii) Upon receipt of a Fixed Rate Notice in the proper form requesting a Fixed Rate Portion advance under subsections (i) and (ii) above, Administrative Agent shall determine the Fixed Rate applicable to the Fixed Rate Period for such Fixed Rate Portion two (2) Business Days prior to the beginning of such Fixed Rate Period. Each determination by Administrative Agent of the Fixed Rate shall be conclusive and binding upon the parties hereto in the absence of manifest error. Administrative Agent shall deliver to Borrowers and each Lender (by facsimile) an acknowledgment of receipt and confirmation of the Fixed Rate Notice; provided, however, that failure to provide such acknowledgment of receipt and confirmation of the Fixed Rate Notice to Borrowers or any Lender shall not affect the validity of such rate.

 

  (iv) If Borrowers do not make a timely election to convert all or a portion of a matured Fixed Rate Portion into a new Fixed Rate Portion in accordance with this Section 2.7(f) above, such Fixed Rate Portion shall begin to accrue interest at the One-Month LIBO Rate determined by Administrative Agent, reset daily, upon the expiration of the Fixed Rate Period applicable to such Fixed Rate Portion.

 

  (g)

Fixed Rate Taxes, Regulatory Costs and Reserve Percentages. Upon Administrative Agent’s demand, Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent for the account of each

 

18


  Lender, in addition to all other amounts which may be, or become, due and payable under this agreement and the other Loan Documents, any and all Fixed Rate Taxes and Regulatory Costs, to the extent they are not internalized by calculation of a Fixed Rate. Further, at Administrative Agent’s option, the Fixed Rate shall be automatically adjusted by adjusting the Reserve Percentage, as determined by Administrative Agent in its prudent banking judgment, from the date of imposition (or subsequent date selected by Administrative Agent) of any such Regulatory Costs. Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower of any event entitling any Lender to Fixed Rate Taxes or Regulatory Costs (setting forth in reasonable detail the basis of such determination) as promptly as practicable, but in any event within ninety (90) days after Administrative Agent obtains actual knowledge thereof; provided that if Administrative Agent fails to give such notice within ninety (90) days after it obtains actual knowledge of such an event, such Lender shall be entitled to payment only for Fixed Rate Taxes and Regulatory Costs incurred from and after the date ninety (90) days prior to the date that Administrative Agent does give such notice.

 

  (h) Fixed Rate Price Adjustment. Borrowers acknowledge that prepayment or acceleration of a Fixed Rate Portion during a Fixed Rate Period shall result in Lenders incurring additional costs, expenses and/or liabilities and that it is extremely difficult and impractical to ascertain the extent of such costs, expenses and/or liabilities. Therefore, on the date a Fixed Rate Portion is prepaid or the date all sums payable hereunder become due and payable, by acceleration or otherwise (“Price Adjustment Date”), Borrowers will pay Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender (in addition to all other sums then owing to Lenders) an amount (“Fixed Rate Price Adjustment”) equal to the then present value of (i) the amount of interest that would have accrued on the Fixed Rate Portion for the remainder of the Fixed Rate Period at the Fixed Rate set on the Fixed Rate Commencement Date, less (ii) the amount of interest that would accrue on the same Fixed Rate Portion for the same period if the Fixed Rate were set on the Price Adjustment Date at the Applicable LIBO Rate in effect on the Price Adjustment Date. The present value shall be calculated by the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, using as a discount rate the LIBO Rate quoted on the Price Adjustment Date.

By initialing this provision where indicated below, Borrowers confirm that Lenders’ agreement to make the Loan at the interest rates and on the other terms set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents constitutes adequate and valuable consideration, given individual weight by Borrowers, for this agreement

Borrower Initials.

  (i) Purchase, Sale and Matching of Funds. Borrowers understand, agree and acknowledge the following: (a) Lenders have no obligation to purchase, sell and/or match funds in connection with the use of a LIBO Rate as a basis for calculating a Fixed Rate or Fixed Rate Price Adjustment; (b) a LIBO Rate is used merely as a reference in determining a Fixed Rate and Fixed Rate Price Adjustment; and (c) Borrowers have accepted a LIBO Rate as a reasonable and fair basis for calculating a Fixed Rate and a Fixed Rate Price Adjustment. Borrowers further agree to pay the Fixed Rate Price Adjustment, Fixed Rate Taxes and Regulatory Costs, if any, whether or not any Lender elects to purchase, sell and/or match funds.

2.8       PAYMENTS.

 

19


  (a) Manner and Time of Payment. All principal, interest and fees payable hereunder shall be paid to Administrative Agent and shall be made without condition or reservation of right and free of set-off or counterclaim, in Dollars and by wire transfer (pursuant to Administrative Agent’s written wire transfer instructions) of immediately available funds for the account of each Lender as applicable, not later than 11:00 A.M. (San Francisco time) on the date due; and funds received by Administrative Agent after that time and date shall be deemed to have been paid on the next succeeding Business Day. Borrowers shall have no obligation to make any payments of amounts due hereunder directly to Lenders; all such amounts shall be payable to Administrative Agent.

 

  (b) Payments on Non-Business Days. Whenever any payment to be made by Borrowers hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day which is not a Business Day, payments shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall be included in the computation of the payment of interest hereunder and of any fees due under this Agreement, as the case may be.

 

  (c)

Auto-Debit. In order to assure timely payment to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of Lenders, of accrued interest, principal, fees and late charges due and owing under the Loan, Borrowers hereby irrevocably authorize Administrative Agent to directly debit the Debit Account for payment when due of all such amounts payable to Administrative Agent or any Lender. Written confirmation of the amount and purpose of any such direct debit shall be given to Borrowers by Administrative Agent not less frequently than monthly. In the event any direct debit hereunder is returned for insufficient funds, Borrowers shall pay Administrative Agent, for the benefit of Lenders, upon demand, in immediately available funds, all amounts and expenses due and owing, including without limitation any late fees incurred, to Administrative Agent or any Lender. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Administrative Agent hereby agrees that it shall not auto-debit the Debit Account for interest payments due under the Loan until the seventh (7th) day of each calendar month during the term of the Loan (notwithstanding the fact that interest is due and payable under the Loan on the first day of each month).

 

  (d) Voluntary Prepayment.

 

  (i) Subject to compliance with the provisions of Sections 2.8(e) and Section 2.10 below, Borrowers may, upon not less than three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice to Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 A.M. (San Francisco time) on the date given, at any time and from time to time, prepay all or any portion of the Loan.

 

  (ii) Any notice of prepayment given to Administrative Agent under this Section 2.8(d) shall specify the date of prepayment and the principal amount of the prepayment. In the event of a prepayment of any Fixed Rate Portion, Borrower shall concurrently pay any Fixed Rate Price Adjustment payable in respect thereof. Any principal balance reduction shall not reduce the Aggregate Commitment unless such payment is made pursuant to Section 2.10 hereof, in which case such amount shall reduce the Aggregate Commitment by a like amount.

 

  (e)

Exit Fee. Concurrently with Borrowers’ repayment of the Loan, in whole or in part, and whether or not the Loan is repaid by Borrowers or otherwise satisfied (including in connection with a foreclosure or earlier acceleration of the Loan following a Default or a deed in lieu thereof), in addition to any Fixed Rate Price Adjustment then due, Borrowers shall pay to Administrative Agent a non-refundable exit fee (“Exit Fee”), if any, equal to a set percentage of the amount of the Loan being repaid at such time

 

20


  as determined in accordance with the Fee Letter, with any such Exit Fee deemed fully earned when paid. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no Exit Fee shall be due and payable in connection with an repayment of any portion of the outstanding principal amount of the Loan unless the repayment (i) is made pursuant to Section 2.10(a)(iv) or (v), or (ii) except as provided in Section 2.10(a)(v), otherwise results in a reduction of the Aggregate Commitment.

2.9       FULL REPAYMENT AND RECONVEYANCE. Upon receipt of all sums owing and outstanding under the Loan Documents, Administrative Agent shall issue full reconveyances of the Properties from the liens of the Security Documents; provided, that Administrative Agent, for the benefit of Lenders, shall have received all escrow, closing and recording costs, the costs of preparing and delivering such reconveyances and any sums then due and payable under the Loan Documents. Lenders’ obligations to make further disbursements under the Loan shall terminate as to any portion of the Loan undisbursed as of the date of issuance of such full release or reconveyance, and any commitment of Lenders to lend any undisbursed portion of the Loan shall be canceled.

2.10     PARTIAL RELEASE OF PROPERTY.

 

  (a) From time to time Borrowers may request, upon not less than thirty (30) days prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, that a Property be released from the Lien created by the Security Document applicable thereto, which release (the “Property Release”) shall be effected by the Administrative Agent if the Administrative Agent determines all of the following conditions are satisfied as of the date of such Property Release:

 

  (i) No Default or Potential Default exists or will exist immediately after giving effect to such Property Release by reason of the release of such Property;

 

  (ii) Borrowers shall confirm to the satisfaction of Administrative Agent that, after giving effect to the Property Release, the Committed Loan Constant shall not be less than the Minimum Applicable Loan Constant. The Committed Loan Constant shall be determined by Administrative Agent with reference to the most recently delivered Borrowers’ Certificate, subject, however, to such adjustments as Administrative Agent deems necessary in its reasonable discretion;

 

  (iii) After giving effect to such Property Release, (1) not more than thirty percent (30%) of the Gross Rental Income from all Properties is to be derived from Leases expiring between the date of the Property Release and the date which is twelve (12) months after the Property Release, (2) not more than forty percent (40%) of the Gross Rental Income from all Properties remaining encumbered by the Security Documents is to be derived from Leases expiring between the date of the Property Release and the date which is twenty-four (24) months after the Property Release and (3) not more than fifty percent (50%) of the Gross Rental Income from all Properties remaining encumbered by the Security Documents is to be derived from Leases expiring between the date of the Property Release and the date which is thirty-six (36) months after the Property Release. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrowers shall be deemed to have satisfied the requirements of this clause (iii) even if the percentage of Gross Rental Income derived from the remaining Properties exceeds the applicable thresholds so long as, after giving effect to the Property Release, the Adjusted Committed Loan Constant (calculated in accordance with Exhibit J) is greater than or equal to the Minimum Applicable Loan Constant;

 

21


  (iv) Borrowers shall pay to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of Lenders, an amount (if any) sufficient to cause the outstanding principal balance of the Loan to be not greater than an amount equal to (1) Aggregate Commitment prior to the relevant Property Release minus (2) the Release Price for the Property being released;

 

  (v) Borrowers shall pay to Administrative Agent any applicable Exit Fee; provided, however, that if, in connection with a proposed sale of a Property to an unaffiliated third-party purchaser the release of the Property in question would otherwise be prohibited by the provisions of either subsections (ii) and/or (iii) above, then Borrowers shall be permitted, concurrently with sale of such Property to the unaffiliated third-party purchaser, to cancel a portion of the Aggregate Commitment, and to repay principal, as applicable, in order to comply with such subsections without payment of an Exit Fee with respect to the amount so repaid (though Borrowers shall pay an Exit Fee with respect to the Release Price paid (if any) on the Property conveyed to the unaffiliated third party purchaser);

 

  (vi) Borrowers shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent all documents and instruments reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent in connection with such Property Release including, without limitation, the reconveyance or other instruments to be used to effect such Property Release and, if required by Administrative Agent and available, appropriate endorsements to the Title Policies in effect with respect to the remaining Properties.

 

  (b) Provided the applicable Borrower does not own any Properties that will remain encumbered by the Lien of the Security Documents following the applicable Property Release, then concurrent with the release of a Property from the Lien created by the Security Document applicable thereto, Administrative shall release the Borrower that owns the Property which is the subject of the Property Release from any future obligations under this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents, excepting, however, any obligations that may arise under the Environmental Indemnity Agreement.

 

  (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.10, Borrowers shall have the right to revoke a request for a Property Release at any time prior to the consummation of such Property Release; provided, however, that upon request, Borrowers shall promptly reimburse Administrative Agent for any and all costs incurred by Administrative Agent relating to the requested and subsequently revoked Property Release.

 

  (d) In connection with a Property Release, the Aggregate Commitment shall be reduced by the sum of (i) the applicable Release Price of the Property (or Properties) being released plus (ii) any amounts repaid in reduction of the outstanding principal balance of the Loan as permitted in this Section 2.10 (without duplication).

2.11     LENDERS’ ACCOUNTING. Administrative Agent shall maintain a loan account (the “Loan Account”) on its books in which shall be recorded (a) the names and addresses and the Pro Rata Shares of the commitment of each of the Lenders, and principal amount of the Loan owing to each Lender from time to time, and (b) all repayments of principal and payments of accrued interest, as well as payments of fees required to be paid pursuant to this Agreement. All entries in the Loan Account shall be made in accordance with Administrative Agent’s customary accounting practices as in effect from time to time. Monthly or at such other interval as is customary with Administrative Agent’s practice, Administrative Agent will render a statement of the Loan Account to Borrowers and will deliver a copy

 

22


thereof to each Lender. Each such statement shall be deemed final, binding and conclusive upon Borrowers in all respects as to all matters reflected therein (absent manifest error).

2.12     SECURED SWAP OBLIGATIONS. Lenders agree that the Security Documents shall secure the payment of the Loan and the payment of Borrower’s obligations under any Secured Swap Obligations on a pari passu basis.

ARTICLE 3. DISBURSEMENT

ARTICLE 4. INTENTIONALLY OMITTED

ARTICLE 5. INSURANCE

6.16     FEDERAL RESERVE REGULATIONS. No part of the proceeds of the Loan hereunder will be used to purchase or carry any “margin security” as defined in Regulation G or for the purpose of reducing or retiring any indebtedness which was originally incurred to purchase or carry any margin security or for any other purpose which might constitute this transaction a “purpose credit” within the meaning of said Regulation G.

ARTICLE 7. INTENTIONALLY OMITTED

ARTICLE 8. LOAN CONSTANT COMPLIANCE

8.1       LOAN CONSTANT COVERAGE. In the event that any Borrowers’ Certificate delivered in accordance with Section 10.1(c) indicates that the Net Operating Income from the Properties at the end of the previous calendar quarter yields a Loan Constant of less than thirteen percent (13%) (the “Minimum Loan Constant”), then commencing on the date on which a Borrowers’ Certificate evidences Borrowers’ failure to satisfy the Minimum Loan Constant (or, if Borrowers fail to timely deliver a Borrowers’ Certificate, then commencing on the date on which such Borrowers’ Certificate is due) (the “Cash Flow Sweep Commencement Date”), Borrowers shall be required to deliver some or all of the Free Cash Flow from the Properties (as provided in this Section 8.1 below) to Administrative Agent (the “Cash Flow Sweep”); provided, that such Free Cash Flow shall be delivered by Borrowers to Administrative Agent only one time per month (with such delivery to be made within ten days after the end of the month on account of which Borrowers are delivering such Free Cash Flow); provided further, however, that notwithstanding the fact that a Borrowers’ Certificate identifying Borrowers’ failure to satisfy the Minimum Loan Constant is not due until forty-five (45) days after the end of a calendar quarter, Borrowers shall be obligated to deposit Free Cash Flow with Administrative Agent on account of the month immediately following the expiration of the calendar quarter in which Borrowers fail to satisfy the Minimum Loan Constant, provided, such deposit shall be required to be made by Borrowers on the tenth day of the month immediately following the month during which the Borrowers’ Certificate is delivered (or was required to be delivered). (By way of example, if Borrowers fail to satisfy the Minimum Loan Constant for the quarter ending March 31, 2011, then Borrowers shall deposit such portion of its Free Cash Flow from April and May, 2011 as it would be required to deposit in accordance with this Section 8.1 on June 10, 2011). Upon receipt thereof, Administrative Agent shall deposit (a) fifty percent (50%) of such funds into an interest-bearing blocked account with Wells Fargo Bank in the name of Borrowers (which account is hereby pledged as collateral for the Loan), from which Borrowers may not withdraw funds (the “Swept Funds Blocked Account”) and (b) fifty percent (50%) of such funds into an interest-bearing blocked account with Wells Fargo Bank in the name of Borrowers (which account is hereby pledged as collateral for the Loan), from which Borrowers may withdraw funds, subject to Section 8.3 below (the “Swept Funds Disbursement Account”, and together with the Swept Funds Blocked Account, the “Cash Flow Collateral

 

31


Accounts”). The percentage of Free Cash Flow to be delivered to Administrative Agent by Borrowers pursuant to the foregoing shall be determined as follows:

 

  (a) If Net Operating Income from the Properties yields a Loan Constant greater than eleven percent (11%), but less than thirteen percent (13%), then Borrowers shall be required to deliver two-thirds (2/3) of the Free Cash Flow from the Properties to Administrative Agent until such time as the Net Operating Income from the Properties yields a Loan Constant of fourteen percent (14%), as evidenced by a Borrowers’ Certificate delivered in accordance with Section 10.1(c);

 

  (b) If Net Operating Income from the Properties yields a Loan Constant greater than or equal to nine percent (9%), but less than or equal to eleven percent (11%), then Borrowers shall be required to deliver one hundred percent (100%) of the Free Cash Flow from the Properties to Administrative Agent until such time as the Net Operating Income from the Properties yields a Loan Constant of fourteen percent (14%), as evidenced by a Borrowers’ Certificate delivered in accordance with Section 10.1(c). Notwithstanding the foregoing, rather than delivering one hundred percent (100%) of Free Cash Flow from the Properties to Administrative Agent, Borrowers may elect to repay such portion of the outstanding principal amount of the Loan as would cause Net Operating Income from the Properties to yield a Loan Constant of twelve percent (12%). If Borrowers repay such portion of the Loan, then following such repayment, Borrowers shall be required to deliver two-thirds (2/3) of the Free Cash Flow from the Properties to Administrative Agent until such time as the Net Operating Income from the Properties yields a Loan Constant of fourteen percent (14%), as evidenced by a Borrowers’ Certificate delivered in accordance with Section 10.1(c); and

 

  (c) If Net Operating Income from the Properties yields a Loan Constant less than nine percent (9%), then in addition to being required to deliver one hundred percent (100%) of the Free Cash Flow from the Properties to Administrative Agent, Borrower shall be required to repay such portion of the outstanding principal balance of the Loan as will cause the Loan Constant to be not less than eleven percent (11%).

8.2       REPAYMENT; DEPOSIT.

 

  (a) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 8.1 above, Borrowers may at any time elect to either: (i) repay such portion of the outstanding principal amount of the Loan as would cause Net Operating Income from the Properties to yield a Loan Constant of fourteen percent (14%) (the “Shortfall Amount”) or (ii) deposit the Shortfall Amount into an interest-bearing blocked account with Wells Fargo Bank in the name of Borrowers (which account is hereby pledged as collateral for the Loan) (the “NOI Deposit Account”), and following such repayment or deposit, (i) Borrowers shall no longer be obligated to deliver any portion of the Free Cash Flow from the Properties to Administrative Agent and (ii) provided a Default has not occurred which is continuing hereunder, all funds in the Cash Flow Collateral Accounts shall be released to or for the benefit of Borrowers, as directed by Borrowers. For clarity, if Borrowers elect to deposit funds into the NOI Deposit Account in accordance with clause (ii) above, then Borrowers shall receive a credit against the Shortfall Amount in an amount equal to the funds then on deposit in the NOI Deposit Account, if any. Further, to be effective for purposes of this Section 8.2, any paydown and/or deposit to be made in accordance with this Section 8.2 may be made on or at any time before the date on which Borrowers are required to make deposits of Free Cash Flow in accordance with Section 8.1.

 

  (b)

If (i) Borrowers elect to deposit the Shortfall Amount into the NOI Deposit Account in lieu of applying the Shortfall Amount in reduction of the outstanding principal amount of the Loan and (ii) Net Operating Income from the Properties is insufficient to yield a Loan Constant of fourteen percent (14%) for two consecutive calendar quarters

 

32


  following the deposit of the Shortfall Amount into the NOI Deposit Account, then any funds in the NOI Deposit Account as of the date on which Borrowers deliver a Borrowers’ Certificate evidencing Borrowers’ failure to achieve a Loan Constant of fourteen percent (14%) for a second consecutive calendar quarter following Borrowers initial deposit of funds into the NOI Deposit Account (or, if Borrowers fail to timely deliver a Borrowers’ Certificate, then on the date which is two days after Administrative Agent has notified Borrowers of their failure to deliver such Borrowers’ Certificate, provided either (i) such failure is then continuing or (ii) Borrowers have then delivered a Borrowers Certificate confirming Borrowers’ failure to achieve a Loan Constant of fourteen percent (14%)), shall be applied by Administrative Agent in reduction of the outstanding principal amount of the Loan. For clarity, any sums on deposit in the NOI Deposit Account shall be disregarded for purposes of calculating the Loan Constant.

 

  (c) If (i) Borrowers elect to deposit the Shortfall Amount into the NOI Deposit Account in lieu of applying the Shortfall Amount in reduction of the outstanding principal amount of the Loan and (ii) prior to Administrative Agent applying the funds in the NOI Deposit Account in the manner provided in clause (b) above, Net Operating Income from the Properties is sufficient to yield a Loan Constant of fourteen percent (14%) (following the deposit of the Shortfall Amount into the NOI Deposit Account), then, provided Borrowers are not then in Default hereunder, any funds in the NOI Deposit Account as of the date on which Borrowers deliver a Borrowers’ Certificate evidencing Borrowers’ satisfaction of the Minimum Loan Constant for a second consecutive calendar quarter, shall, at Borrowers’ request, be disbursed to Borrowers. For clarity, any sums on deposit in the NOI Deposit Account shall be disregarded for purposes of calculating the Loan Constant.

 

  (d) Borrowers shall not be obligated to pay any Exit Fee with respect to amounts repaid in accordance with clauses (a) or (b) above, and any amounts repaid shall not reduce the Aggregate Commitment and may be reborrowed, subject to the terms of this Agreement, including, without limitation, the terms and conditions of Section 3.4.

8.3       SWEPT FUNDS DISBURSEMENT ACCOUNT. Provided no Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrowers shall have the right to receive disbursements of funds from the Swept Funds Disbursement Account as follows:

 

  (a) At Borrowers’ request, Administrative Agent shall disburse funds from the Swept Funds Disbursement Account (within fifteen (15) days after Borrowers’ request) to reimburse Borrowers for the actual costs incurred for tenant improvement costs, leasing commissions and pre-approved (by Administrative Agent) capital expenditures identified in the capital budgets delivered by Borrowers to Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 10.1(d); provided, in no event shall Administrative Agent be required to disburse any amount for tenant improvement costs and/or leasing commissions in excess of the amounts allocated therefor in the most recent Appraisal of the relevant Property.

 

  (b)

At any time that Borrowers are depositing two-thirds (2/3) of Free Cash Flow from the Properties pursuant to Section 8.1(a) or 8.1(b) above, Administrative Agent shall, at Borrowers’ request, disburse funds from the Swept Funds Disbursement Account (within fifteen (15) days after Borrowers’ request) to or for the benefit of Borrowers for the purpose of paying REIT Operating Expenses; provided, that the amount to be disbursed from the Swept Funds Disbursement Account pursuant to this clause (b) during any Fiscal Quarter may not exceed the lesser of (i) $275,000 (except that it may not exceed $350,000 for the first Fiscal Quarter of each year) and (ii) 0.275% of the average daily outstanding principal amount of the Loan during such Fiscal Quarter, and the cumulative amount of all disbursements from the Swept Funds Disbursement Account pursuant to this clause (b) may not exceed the lesser of (i)

 

33


  $750,000 and (ii) 0.80% of the average outstanding daily balance of the Loan for the previous four Fiscal Quarters.

ARTICLE 9. OTHER COVENANTS OF BORROWER

With respect to Major Leases, if consent thereto is required pursuant to subsection (a) above, or if a Borrower has requested consent to a Lease which does not comply with the requirements set forth in Sections 9.3(a)(i), (ii) or (iii), then if Administrative Agent has not notified such Borrower of its disapproval of such proposed Lease within five (5) Business Days (or, in cases where Requisite Lenders’ approval is required, eleven (11) Business Days) after Administrative Agent’s confirmation of receipt of (1) such proposed Lease (or a term sheet, in a form reasonably approved by Administrative Agent, containing the material business terms, and other applicable information reasonably approved by Borrowers and

Within ten (10) Business Days after Administrative Agent’s receipt of such Subdivision Map, Administrative Agent shall provide Borrowers written notice if Administrative Agent disapproves of said Subdivision Map. Within five (5) Business Days after Administrative Agent’s request, Borrowers shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to Administrative Agent such amendments to the Loan Documents as Administrative Agent may reasonably require to reflect the change in the legal description of the applicable Property resulting from the recordation of any Subdivision Map. In connection with and promptly after the recordation of any amendment or other modification to the applicable Security Document recorded in connection with such amendments, Borrowers shall deliver to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of Lenders, at Borrowers’ sole expense, a title endorsement to the Title Policy in form and substance satisfactory to Administrative Agent insuring the continued first priority lien of the applicable Security Document. Subject to the execution and delivery by Borrowers of any documents required under this Section, Administrative Agent, on behalf of Lenders, shall, if required by applicable law, sign any Subdivision Map approved by Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section.

9.6       OPINIONS OF LEGAL COUNSEL. Borrowers shall provide, at Borrowers’ expense, opinions of legal counsel in form and content satisfactory to Administrative Agent to the effect that: (a) upon due authorization, execution and recordation or filing as may be specified in each opinion, each of the Loan Documents and Other Related Documents shall be legal, valid and binding instruments, enforceable against the makers thereof in accordance with their respective terms; (b) Borrowers and Guarantor are duly formed and have all requisite authority to enter into the Loan Documents and Other Related Documents; and (c) such other matters, incident to the transactions contemplated hereby, as Administrative Agent may reasonably request.

9.7       FURTHER ASSURANCES. Upon Administrative Agent’s request and at Borrowers’ sole cost and expense, Borrowers shall execute, acknowledge and deliver any other instruments and perform any other acts necessary, desirable or proper, as determined by Administrative Agent, to carry out the purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or to perfect and preserve any Liens created by the Loan Documents.

9.8       ASSIGNMENT. Without the prior written consent of Lenders, Borrowers shall not assign Borrowers’ interest under any of the Loan Documents, or in any monies due or to become due thereunder, and any assignment without such consent shall be void. In this regard, Borrowers acknowledge that Lenders would not make this Loan except in reliance on Borrowers’ expertise, reputation, prior experience in developing, constructing commercial and managing real property, Lenders’ knowledge of Borrowers, and Lenders’ understanding that this Agreement is more in the nature of an agreement involving personal services than a standard loan where Lenders would rely on security which already exists.

9.9       MANAGEMENT OF PROPERTY.

 

  (a) From and after the Effective Date, no Borrower shall enter into, or thereafter amend in any material manner or terminate, any Major Agreement with respect to a Property, except upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to and approval by Administrative Agent. The applicable Borrower shall timely provide to Administrative Agent a copy of any such proposed Major Agreement. Any such proposed Major Agreement submitted to Administrative Agent for approval and not disapproved by Administrative Agent within ten (10) days after receipt thereof shall be deemed to be approved by Administrative Agent. Without limiting in any way Administrative Agent’s approval rights with respect thereto, each proposed Major Agreement shall provide for fees, reimbursements or other payments by the applicable Borrower to the other party thereto at levels not in excess of applicable market levels.

 

  (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, for purposes of this Agreement, property management or leasing agreements entered into with CB Richard Ellis, Inc., PM Realty Group, Transwestern, Jones Lang LaSalle, or any other property or leasing manager of equivalent experience and reputation managing or leasing real properties similar to the Properties, do not constitute Major Agreements provided such agreements provide for fees, reimbursements or other payments by the applicable Borrower to the other party thereto at levels not in excess of applicable market levels. If a Borrower enters into such an agreement with any such party, such Borrower shall within ten (10) days after entering into, or modifying, such agreement, notify Administrative Agent of such event and provide Administrative Agent with a true and correct copy of such agreement or amendment, as the case may be.

9.12     LIMITATIONS ON DISTRIBUTIONS, ETC. No Distributions by a Borrower shall be made during the continuance of any Default. In addition, no Distributions may be made by Borrowers during a calendar month at the expiration of which Borrowers will be required to deposit Free Cash Flow with Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 8.1; provided, however, that following the expiration of such calendar month, Borrowers shall be entitled to distribute any Free Cash Flow in excess of the amount required to be deposited with Administrative Agent (if any); provided, further, that prior to making any such Distribution, Borrowers shall have first deposited such portion of the Free Cash Flow with Administrative Agent as they are required to deposit pursuant to Section 8.1.

9.13     INCURRENCE OF ADDITIONAL INDEBTEDNESS. Borrowers shall not incur any Indebtedness or other liabilities other than (i) the Obligations, (ii) operating and equipment leases entered into in the ordinary course of Borrowers’ business, (iii) tenant security deposits, (iv) non-delinquent, accrued but unpaid real estate taxes and insurance premiums, (v) other trade payables in respect of operating expenses incurred in the ordinary course, (vi) any indebtedness, obligations or other liabilities (other than interest expense liability) in respect of interest rate swap, collar, cap or similar agreements providing interest rate protection and foreign currency exchange agreements (excepting, however, any swap, collar, cap or similar agreement with Wells Fargo Bank as the counterparty) and (vii) obligations in connection with posting a bond required by a Governmental Authority in connection with the operation of one or more of the Properties. Further, the sum of the liabilities referred to in clauses (ii) and (v) shall at no time exceed an amount equal to (a) $250,000 per Property, or (b) $1,000,000 in the aggregate for all Properties; provided, for purposes of determining whether the foregoing thresholds have been exceeded, only those liabilities referred to in clause (v) that have been outstanding for more than thirty (30) days shall be included in such calculation.

9.14     SPECIAL REPRESENTATIONS, COVENANTS AND WAIVERS.

 

  (a) The parties hereto recognize and acknowledge that a Borrower may from time to time have advanced to it under the Loan an aggregate principal amount in excess of the borrowing that would otherwise be supported by real property collateral encumbered under Security Documents. The Loan has been established in the manner provided herein (and with the possible result referred to in the foregoing sentence) at the express request of, and to accommodate the administrative and operational requirements of, the Borrowers and Guarantor. Specifically, the Loan might have been established to provide a limit on direct borrowings by Borrowers consistent with the specific borrowing base limitations imposed by real property collateral owned by such Borrowers, with additional credit needs of such Borrowers in excess thereof being accommodated by inter-company loans from Borrower(s) with excess borrowing capacity to such other Borrowers requiring additional funds. However, for administrative and operational reasons imposed by the Borrowers and Guarantor, as aforesaid, the Loan has been established as provided herein, but with the intention, as confirmed in subsection (b) below, that the Borrowers and Guarantor ultimately share, among themselves repayment and/or reimbursement obligations under the Loan to the same extent as if such borrowings had been made under the alternative disbursement procedure described in the preceding sentence. In addition, it is further recognized and acknowledged that (i) each Borrower and Guarantor shall directly and indirectly benefit from the expansion of business operations, as facilitated by the Loan, of each other Borrower, including, without limitation, the present and future contracting for goods and services as between the Borrowers and Guarantor in respect of their business operations, and (ii) Administrative Agent and Lenders have no intention or obligation to track the disbursement or use of Loan proceeds as between the various Borrower and Guarantor entities.

 

  (b)

In connection with its joint and several obligations under the Loan Documents, each Borrower waives: (i) any defense based upon any legal disability or other defense of any other Borrower, or by reason of the cessation or limitation of the liability of any other Borrower from any cause other than full payment of all sums payable under the

 

37


  Notes or any of the other Loan Documents; (ii) any defense based upon any lack of authority of the officers, directors, partners or agents acting or purporting to act on behalf of any Borrower or any principal thereof or any defect in the formation of any Borrower or any such principal; (iii) any defense based upon the application by any Borrower of the proceeds of the Loan for purposes other than the purposes permitted under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; (iv) any and all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies by the Lenders; (v) any defense based upon Administrative Agent’s or any Lender’s failure to disclose any information concerning any other Borrower’s financial condition or any other circumstances bearing on any other Borrower’s ability to pay all sums payable under the Notes or any of the other Loan Documents; (vi) any defense based upon any statute or rule of law which provides that the obligation of a surety must be neither larger in amount nor in any other respects ore burdensome than that of a principal; (vii) any defense based upon the Lenders’ election, in any proceeding instituted under the Federal Bankruptcy Code, of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Federal Bankruptcy Code or any successor statute; (viii) any defense based upon, any borrowing or any grant of a security interest under Section 364 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code; (ix) any right of subrogation, any right to enforce any remedy which the Lenders may have against any other Borrower and any right to participate in, or benefit from, any security for the Notes or the other Loan Documents now or hereafter held by the Lenders; and (x) the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting the liability of each Borrower or the enforcement hereof. Each Borrower agrees that the payment of all sums payable under the Notes or any of the other Loan Documents or any part thereof or other act which tolls any statute of limitations applicable to the Notes or other Loan Documents shall similarly operate to toll the statute of limitations applicable to each Borrower’s liability hereunder. Lenders may (A) apply security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as the Lenders in their sole discretion may determine; (B) release, substitute or add any one or more endorsers of the Notes or guarantors of Borrowers’ obligations under the Note or the other Loan Documents; and (C) apply payments received by the Administrative Agent from Borrowers to any obligations of Borrowers to the Lenders, in such order as the Administrative Agent shall determine in its sole discretion. If all or any portion of the obligations of any Borrowers are paid or performed, the obligations of each other Borrower hereunder shall continue and shall remain in full force and effect in the event that all or any part of such payment or performance is avoided or recovered directly or indirectly from the Lenders as a preference, fraudulent transfer or otherwise under the Bankruptcy Code or other similar laws, irrespective of full payment and performance of all of the indebtedness and obligations evidenced and secured by the Loan Documents. Each Borrower acknowledges that: (a) the obligations under the Loan Documents are complex in nature, (b) numerous possible defenses to the enforceability of these obligations may presently exist and/or may arise hereafter, and (c) as part of the Administrative Agent’s and Lenders’ consideration for entering into these transactions, the Administrative Agent and Lenders have specifically bargained for the waiver and relinquishment by each Borrower of all such defenses, and each Borrower has had the opportunity to seek and receive legal advice from skilled legal counsel in the area of financial transactions of the type contemplated herein. Given all of the above, each Borrower does hereby represent and confirm to Administrative Agent and each Lender that each Borrower is fully informed regarding, and thoroughly understands: (i) the nature of all such possible defenses, (ii) the circumstances under which such defenses may arise, (iii) the benefits which such defenses might confer upon Borrower, and (iv) the legal consequences to Borrower of waiving such defenses. Each Borrower acknowledges that all of the informed waivers herein shall be fully enforceable by the Administrative Agent and Lenders, and that Administrative Agent and Lenders are induced to enter into this transaction in material reliance upon the presumed full enforceability thereof.

 

38


  (c) Without limiting subsection (b) above, and except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, each Borrower hereby specifically waives presentment, demand, protest and notice of any kind and without limiting the generality of the foregoing or any provision of subsection (b) above, each Borrower further expressly waives to the extent permitted by law any and all rights and defenses, including, without limitation, any rights of subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification and contribution, which might otherwise be available to such Borrower

9.15     ENVIRONMENTAL INSURANCE PROCEEDS. Subject to the terms of the Security Documents, Borrowers shall apply any proceeds received on account of environmental insurance policies maintained by Borrowers which relate to one or more of the Properties for remediation of the environmentally impaired Property or Properties giving rise to the relevant insurance claim.

9.16     AMENDMENT OF CONSTITUENT DOCUMENTS. Except with Administrative Agent’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, no Borrower shall amend its organizational documents (including, without limitation, as to the admission of any new equity owner, directly or indirectly).

9.17     OWNERSHIP OF BORROWER.

 

  (a) Each Borrower shall be wholly owned, either directly or indirectly, by KBS REIT. Notwithstanding anything stated to the contrary in this Agreement, the Security Documents or in any of the other Loan Documents, any transfers of equity interests or other interests in KBS REIT Properties II, LLC or in any of the direct or indirect owners of KBS REIT Properties II, LLC shall not be prohibited (and shall be expressly permitted) provided that KBS REIT continues to own, either directly or indirectly, 100% of the ownership interests in each Borrower and KBS REIT Properties II, LLC, and provided further, that KBS REIT Properties II, LLC maintains a net worth (determined by subtracting Total Liabilities from Gross Asset Value, each as defined in Exhibit I) of at least $200,000,000 (excluding the Gross Asset Value and the Total Liabilities Associated therewith of each of the Properties).

 

  (b) At all times during the term of the Loan, Peter Bren or Charles Schreiber shall remain actively involved in the management of KBS REIT; provided, however, that either or both Peter Bren and Charles Schreiber may be replaced by a principal of any replacement asset manager approved pursuant to clause (c) below.

 

  (c) At all times during the term of the Loan, Manager shall be the asset manager for KBS REIT pursuant to the Management Agreement. Subject to Administrative Agent’s prior written consent, which may be withheld in Administrative Agent’s sole discretion, Manager may be replaced by another asset manager; provided, if the replacement asset manager: (i) has financial capability and management experience at least comparable to Manager; (ii) has current assets under management of not less than 10,000,000 square feet of properties similar to the Properties; (iii) has current asset management agreements with at least five (5) other institutional investors; and (iv) is currently a customer of the Wells Fargo Wholesale Bank Commercial Real Estate Group in a borrowing capacity and in good standing, then Administrative Agent’s consent to the replacement of Manager with such substitute manager shall not be unreasonably withheld.

9.18     LIENS. Borrowers shall not directly or indirectly create, incur, assume or permit to exist any Lien on or with respect to any Collateral, except (A) Liens in favor of Administrative Agent securing the Obligations and (B) Permitted Liens. Nothing contained in this Agreement or in any of the other Loan Documents shall limit or impair the right of Borrowers’ constituent members or partners (direct or indirect) to directly or indirectly create, incur, assume or permit to exist any Indebtedness of, or any Lien upon any property of, such member or partner.

 

39


9.19     TRANSFERS OF COLLATERAL. Subject to Section 9.17, Borrowers shall not transfer, directly or indirectly, all or any interest in any Property or the Collateral.

  (b) KBS REIT shall at all times operate in conformity with the requirements for qualification as a real estate investment trust pursuant to Section 856 of the Internal Revenue Code.

9.21     TERMINATION PAYMENTS.

 

  (a) If a Borrower receives any sums in consideration of any termination (or the release or discharge of any lessee) modification or amendment of any Lease (any such funds, a “Termination Payment”), then, provided a Default has not occurred which is continuing, if such Termination Payment is less than the lesser of (i) $200,000 and (ii) one fifth of one percent (0.20%) of the Aggregate Commitment (which amount shall in no event be less than $40,000) (the “Termination Payment Cap”), then such Termination Payment may be retained by the Borrower (provided, in no event shall Borrowers be permitted to retain an aggregate amount (i.e., the sum of all Termination Payments being held by Borrowers pursuant to the foregoing at any one time) in excess of the lesser of $650,000 or sixty-five hundredths of one percent (0.65%) of the Aggregate Commitment (the “Maximum Termination Reserve Amount”)). Any Termination Payments retained by a Borrower may be used by such Borrower only for costs incurred by such Borrower in re-tenanting the space on account of which the Termination Payment was made; provided, however, that so long as a Default has not occurred hereunder which is continuing, such Borrower shall also be permitted to distribute a portion of such Termination Payment to its members, on a monthly basis, equal to the monthly base rent that would have been paid by the tenant that made the Termination Payment.

 

  (b)

If a Borrower receives a Termination Payment in an amount which exceeds the Termination Payment Cap or if Borrowers would then be holding an amount in excess of the Maximum Termination Reserve Amount in the aggregate, then (i) the entire amount of the Termination Payment which is greater than the Termination Payment Cap (i.e., not only the portion of such Termination Payment that exceeds the Termination Payment Cap) and (ii) the entire amount of any Termination Payment that would cause the sum of all Termination Payments being held by Borrowers to exceed the Maximum Termination Reserve Amount (i.e., not only the portion of such Termination Payment that would cause the sum of all Termination Payments then held by Borrowers to exceed the Maximum Termination Reserve Amount) shall, without duplication, be promptly delivered by Borrowers to Administrative Agent to be held in a blocked and pledged cash collateral account. Thereafter, provided (x) no Default has occurred and is continuing hereunder, (y) the Committed Loan Constant is not less than thirteen percent (13%) and (z) the Loan Constant is not less than the Minimum Applicable Loan Constant, Administrative Agent shall, at Borrowers’ request, (1) disburse funds from the cash collateral account to Borrowers to cover Administrative Agent-approved re-tenanting costs with respect to the relevant Property, subject to such reasonable conditions on disbursement as Administrative Agent may impose and (2) disburse to Borrowers, from the cash collateral account, an amount equal to the monthly base rent that would have been paid by the tenant(s) that made the Termination Payment(s). If, however, at any time Borrowers are in compliance with clause (x) above, but not either or both of (y) and (z), then at such

 

40


  time, Borrowers shall continue to have the right to receive disbursements pursuant clause (1) above, but not pursuant to clause (2).

 

  (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing subsection (b), the amount of an Termination Payment which exceeds the lesser of (i) $1,500,000 and (ii) and one and one half percent (1.5%) of the Aggregate Commitment, shall be held in the cash collateral account by Administrative Agent and shall not be available until the affected space is re-leased (which for purposes hereof shall mean the affected space is not less than 95% leased). Following the re-leasing of the affected space, any sums held by Administrative Agent pursuant to previous sentence shall, at Borrowers’ request, be disbursed to Borrowers, provided, (i) no Default has occurred and is continuing, (ii) the Committed Loan Constant is not less than thirteen percent (13%) and (iii) the Loan Constant is not less than the Minimum Applicable Loan Constant. In addition, the portion of any Termination Payment(s) that would cause the sum of all Termination Payments then held by Administrative Agent to exceed the lesser of (i) $4,000,000 and (ii) four percent (4%) of the Aggregate Commitment, shall be held in the cash collateral account by Administrative Agent and shall not be available for disbursement until both (x) the space on account of which the Termination Payment(s) causing the sum of all then-held Termination Payments to exceed the lesser of (1) $4,000,000 and (2) four percent (4%) of the Aggregate Commitment, has been re-leased (which for purposes hereof shall mean the affected space is not less than 95% leased) and (y) the aggregate amount of all Termination Payments remaining in the cash collateral account is less than the lesser of $4,000,000 and four percent (4%) of the Aggregate Commitment.

 

  (d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 9.21, after the affected space at the relevant Property has been re-leased (which for purposes hereof shall mean the affected space is not less than 95% leased) and is occupied by tenants in possession and paying rent, and provided (i) no Default has occurred and is continuing, (ii) the Committed Loan Constant is not less than thirteen percent (13%) and (iii) the Loan Constant is not less than the Minimum Applicable Loan Constant, any balance remaining in such cash collateral account which relates to such affected space shall, at Borrowers’ request, be disbursed to Borrowers.

 

  (e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 9.21, Borrowers may elect at any time to cause funds on deposit in the cash collateral account to be applied in reduction of the outstanding principal amount of the Loan; provided, any amounts repaid pursuant to the foregoing shall permanently reduce the Aggregate Commitment by a like amount, and Borrowers shall be required to pay any Exit Fee and/or Fixed Rate Price Adjustment with respect thereto (as applicable).

 

  (f) For purposes of calculating Committed Loan Constant pursuant to this Section 9.21, Gross Rental Income (as an input for calculating Gross Operating Income and subsequently Net Operating Income) shall not include any rental income received on account of any lease that has terminated as of the date of calculation.

Confidential information obtained by Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement or in connection with the Loan shall not be disseminated by Administrative Agent and shall not be disclosed to third parties except to regulators, taxing authorities and other governmental agencies having jurisdiction over Administrative Agent or otherwise in response to Requirements of Law, to Administrative Agent’s auditors and legal counsel and in connection with regulatory, administrative and judicial proceedings as necessary or relevant including enforcement proceedings relating to the Loan Documents, and to any prospective assignee of or participant in Administrative Agent’s interest under this Agreement or any prospective purchaser of the assets or a controlling interest in Administrative Agent, provided that such prospective assignee, participant or purchaser first agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Section 10.4. In connection with disclosures of confidential information to any non-governmental third-party, Administrative Agent shall, to the extent feasible and permitted, give prior notice of such request to the applicable Borrower; however, Administrative Agent shall incur no liability to Borrowers for failure to do so. For purposes hereof, “confidential information” shall mean all nonpublic information obtained by Administrative Agent, unless and until such information becomes publicly known, other than as a result of unauthorized disclosure by Administrative Agent of such information.

ARTICLE 11. DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES

Borrowers shall fail duly and punctually to perform or observe any agreement, covenant or obligation binding on Borrowers under this Agreement or under any of the other Loan Documents (other than as described in any other provision of this Section 11.1), and (with respect to agreements, covenants or obligations for which no time period for performance is otherwise provided and for which cure is possible), such failure shall continue for fifteen (15) days after the earlier of (i) the date as of which the applicable Borrower had actual knowledge of such failure, and (ii) the date on which Administrative Agent gives the applicable Borrower notice of such failure (or, in either such case, such lesser period of time as is mandated by applicable Requirements of Law); provided, however, if such failure is not capable of cure within such fifteen (15) day period, but is capable of cure and the grant of additional time to cure would not result in a Material Adverse Effect, then if such Borrower promptly undertakes action to cure such failure and thereafter diligently prosecutes such cure to completion within ninety (90) days after the earlier of the two dates described in the preceding clauses (i) and (ii), then Borrowers shall not be in default hereunder.

 

  (e)

Breach of Representation or Warranty. Any representation or warranty made or deemed made by Borrowers to Administrative Agent or Lenders herein or in any of the other Loan Documents or in any statement, certificate or financial statements at

  foregoing, such condition or event shall continue for fifteen (15) days after the applicable Borrower knew of such condition or event.

 

  (k) ERISA Liabilities. Any Termination Event occurs which will or is reasonably likely to subject any Borrower to a liability which Administrative Agent reasonably determines will have a Material Adverse Effect, or the plan administrator of any Benefit Plan applies for approval under Section 412(d) of the Internal Revenue Code for a waiver of the minimum funding standards of Section 412(a) of the Internal Revenue Code and Lender reasonably determines that the business hardship upon which the Section 412(d) waiver was based will or would reasonably be anticipated to subject any Borrower to a liability which Administrative Agent determines will have a Material Adverse Effect.

Upon the occurrence of any Default specified in this Article 11, Requisite Lenders may, at their sole option, declare all sums owing to Lenders under the Notes, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents immediately due and payable. Upon such acceleration, Administrative Agent may, in addition to all other remedies permitted under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and at law or equity, apply any sums in any account pledged by Borrowers as collateral for the Loan to the sums owing under the Loan Documents and any and all obligations of Lender to fund further disbursements under the Loan (if any) shall terminate.

11.3     DISBURSEMENTS TO THIRD PARTIES. Upon the occurrence of a Default occasioned by Borrowers’ failure to pay money to a third party as required by this Agreement, Administrative Agent may but shall not be obligated to make such payment from the Loan proceeds or other funds of Lenders.

If such payment is made from funds of Lenders, Borrowers shall immediately repay such funds upon written demand of Administrative Agent.

All Administrative Agent’s and Lenders’ rights and remedies provided in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with those granted by law or at equity, are cumulative and may be exercised by Administrative Agent at any time. Administrative Agent’s exercise of any right or remedy shall not constitute a cure of any Default unless all sums then due and payable to Lenders under the Loan Documents are repaid and Borrowers have cured all other Defaults. No waiver shall be implied from any failure of Administrative Agent to take, or any delay by Administrative Agent in taking, action concerning any Default or failure of condition under the Loan Documents, or from any previous waiver of any similar or unrelated Default or failure of condition. Any waiver or approval under any of the Loan Documents must be in writing and shall be limited to its specific terms.

ARTICLE 12. THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT; INTERCREDITOR PROVISIONS

The following provisions of this Article 12 shall govern the relationship of the Administrative Agent and Lenders and Borrower shall have no obligations hereunder:

12.1     APPOINTMENT AND AUTHORIZATION.

 

  (a) Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as contractual representative on such Lender’s behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and Other Related Documents as are specifically delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Not in limitation of the foregoing, each Lender authorizes and directs the Administrative Agent to enter into the Loan Documents and Other Related Documents for the benefit of the Lenders.

 

  (b) Each Lender hereby agrees that, except as otherwise set forth herein, any action taken by the Requisite Lenders in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, the Loan Documents or the Other Related Documents, and the exercise by the Requisite Lenders of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all of the Lenders.

 

  (c) Nothing herein shall be construed to deem the Administrative Agent a trustee or fiduciary for any Lender or to impose on the Administrative Agent duties or obligations other than those expressly provided for herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the use of the terms “Administrative Agent”, “Agent”, “agent” and similar terms in the Loan Documents or Other Related Documents with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead, use of such terms is merely a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.

 

  (d) The Administrative Agent shall deliver to each Lender, promptly upon receipt thereof by the Administrative Agent, copies of each of the financial statements, certificates, notices and other documents delivered to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Article 10. The Administrative Agent will also furnish to any Lender, upon the request of such Lender, a copy (or, where appropriate, an original) of any document, instrument, agreement, certificate or notice furnished to the Administrative Agent by the Borrowers, any Loan Party or any other Affiliate of the Borrowers, pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document not already delivered to such Lender pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any such other Loan Document.

 

48


  (e) As to any matters not expressly provided for by the Loan Documents and Other Related Documents (including, without limitation, enforcement or collection of any of Borrowers’ obligations hereunder), Administrative Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Requisite Lenders (or all of the Lenders if explicitly required under any other provision of this Agreement), and such instructions shall be binding upon all Lenders and all holders of any of the obligations of Borrowers; provided, however, that, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action which exposes the Administrative Agent to personal liability or which is contrary to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or Requirements of Law. Not in limitation of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent may exercise any right or remedy it or the Lenders may have under any Loan Document upon the occurrence of a Potential Default or Default unless the Requisite Lenders have directed the Administrative Agent otherwise. Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against the Administrative Agent as a result of the Administrative Agent acting or refraining from acting under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, or the Other Related Documents in accordance with the instructions of the Requisite Lenders, or where applicable, all the Lenders.

12.2     WELLS FARGO AS LENDER. Wells Fargo, as a Lender, shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and any other Loan Document as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent; and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include Wells Fargo in each case in its individual capacity. Wells Fargo and its affiliates may each accept deposits from, maintain deposits or credit balances for, invest in, lend money to, act as trustee under indentures of, serve as financial advisor to, and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrowers, any other Loan Party or any other affiliate thereof as if it were any other bank and without any duty to account therefor to the other Lenders. Further, the Administrative Agent and any affiliate may accept fees and other consideration from the Borrowers for services in connection with this Agreement and otherwise without having to account for the same to the other Lenders. The Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, Wells Fargo or its affiliates may receive information regarding the Borrowers, other loan parties, other subsidiaries and other Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such Person) and acknowledge that the Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them.

12.3     LOAN DISBURSEMENTS.

 

  (a)

On the Effective Date, each Lender shall make available to Administrative Agent (or the funding bank or entity designated by Administrative Agent), the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Loan in immediately available funds not later than the times designated in Section 12.3(b). Unless Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Lender not later than the close of business (San Francisco time) on the Business Day immediately preceding the Effective Date in respect of any disbursement that such Lender does not intend to make available to Administrative Agent such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such disbursement, Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender shall make such amount available to Administrative Agent. If any Lender does not notify Administrative Agent of its intention not to make available its Pro Rata Share of such disbursement as described above, but does not for any reason make available to Administrative Agent such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such disbursement, such Lender shall pay to Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Rate. In any case where a Lender does not for any reason make available to Administrative Agent such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such disbursement, Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, may, but shall not be obligated to, fund to Borrowers such

 

49


  Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such disbursement. If Administrative Agent funds to Borrowers such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such disbursement and if such Lender subsequently pays to Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such disbursement. Nothing in this Section 12.3(a) shall alter the respective rights and obligations of the parties hereunder in respect of a Defaulting Lender or a Non-Pro Rata Advance.

 

  (b) Requests by Administrative Agent for funding by Lenders of disbursements will be made by telecopy. Each Lender shall make the amount of its disbursement available to Administrative Agent in Dollars and in immediately available funds, to such bank and account, in El Segundo, California (to such bank and account in such other place) as Administrative Agent may designate, not later than 9:00 A.M. (San Francisco time) on the date designated by Administrative Agent with respect to such disbursement, which date shall be not earlier than three (3) Business Days following Lender’s receipt of Administrative Agent’s request.

 

  (c) Nothing in this Section 12.3 shall be deemed to relieve any Lender of its obligation hereunder to make its Pro Rata Share of disbursements on the date designated by Administrative Agent, nor shall Administrative Agent or any Lender be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to perform its obligations to make any disbursement hereunder, and the Commitment of any Lender shall not be increased or decreased as a result of the failure by any other Lender to perform its obligation to make a disbursement.

12.4     DISTRIBUTION AND APPORTIONMENT OF PAYMENTS; DEFAULTING LENDERS.

 

  (a) Subject to Section 12.4(b) below, payments actually received by Administrative Agent for the account of Lenders shall be paid to them promptly after receipt thereof by Administrative Agent, but in any event within two (2) Business Days, provided that Administrative Agent shall pay to Lenders interest thereon, at the lesser of (i) the Federal Funds Rate and (ii) the rate of interest applicable to the Loan, from the Business Day following receipt of such funds by Administrative Agent until such funds are paid in immediately available funds to Lenders. All payments of principal, interest, and other payments under the Loan Documents or Other Related Documents shall be allocated among such of Lenders as are entitled thereto, in proportion to their respective Pro Rata Shares in the Loan or otherwise as provided herein or as separately agreed by Administrative Agent and any Lender. Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute, but in any event within two (2) Business Days, to each Lender at its primary address set forth on the appropriate signature page hereof or on the Assignment and Assumption Agreement, or at such other address as a Lender may request in writing, such funds as it may be entitled to receive, provided that Administrative Agent shall in any event not be bound to inquire into or determine the validity, scope or priority of any interest or entitlement of any Lender and may suspend all payments and seek appropriate relief (including, without limitation, instructions from Requisite Lenders or all Lenders, as applicable, or an action in the nature of interpleader) in the event of any doubt or dispute as to any apportionment or distribution contemplated hereby. The order of priority herein is set forth solely to determine the rights and priorities of Lenders as among themselves and may at any time or from time to time be changed by Lenders as they may elect, in writing in accordance with this Agreement, without necessity of notice to or consent of or approval by Borrowers or any other Person. All payments or other sums received by Administrative Agent for the account of Lenders shall not constitute property or assets of the Administrative Agent and shall be held by Administrative Agent, solely in its capacity as agent for itself and the other Lenders, subject to the Loan Documents and the Other Related Documents.

 

50


  (b) Notwithstanding any provision hereof to the contrary, until such time as a Defaulting Lender has funded its Pro Rata Share of a Protective Advance or prior Loan disbursements which was previously a Non-Pro Rata Advance, or all other Lenders have received payment in full (whether by repayment or prepayment) of the amounts due in respect of such Non-Pro Rata Advance, all of the indebtedness and obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender hereunder shall be subordinated in right of payment, as provided in the following sentence, to the prior payment in full of all principal, interest and fees in respect of all Non-Pro Rata Advances in which the Defaulting Lender has not funded its Pro Rata Share (such principal, interest and fees being referred to as “Senior Loans”). All amounts paid by Borrowers and otherwise due to be applied to the indebtedness and obligations owing to the Defaulting Lender pursuant to the terms hereof shall be distributed by Administrative Agent to the other Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares of the Loan (recalculated for purposes hereof to exclude the Defaulting Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Loan), until all Senior Loans have been paid in full. This provision governs only the relationship among Administrative Agent, each Defaulting Lender, and the other Lenders; nothing hereunder shall limit the obligations of Borrowers under this Agreement. The provisions of this section shall apply and be effective regardless of whether a Default occurs and is then continuing, and notwithstanding (a) any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, (b) any instruction of Borrowers as to its desired application of payments or (c) the suspension of such Defaulting Lender’s right to vote on matters which are subject to the consent or approval of Requisite Lenders or all Lenders. Administrative Agent shall be entitled to (i) withhold or setoff, and to apply to the payment of the defaulted amount and any related interest, any amounts to be paid to such Defaulting Lender under this Agreement, and (ii) bring an action or suit against such Defaulting Lender in a court of competent jurisdiction to recover the defaulted amount and any related interest. In addition, the Defaulting Lender shall indemnify, defend and hold Administrative Agent and each of the other Lenders harmless from and against any and all liabilities and costs, plus interest thereon at the Default Rate as set forth in the Notes, which they may sustain or incur by reason of or as a direct consequence of the Defaulting Lender’s failure or refusal to perform its obligations under this Agreement.

12.5     PRO RATA TREATMENT. Except to the extent otherwise provided herein: (a) each borrowing from Lenders shall be made from the Lenders, each payment of the fees shall be made for the account of the Lenders, and each termination or reduction of the amount of the Commitments pursuant to this Agreement shall be applied to the respective Commitments of the Lenders, pro rata according to the amounts of their respective Commitments; (b) each payment or prepayment of principal of the Loan by the Borrowers shall be made for the account of the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid principal amounts of the Loan held by them, provided that if immediately prior to giving effect to any such payment in respect of the Loan the outstanding principal amount of the Loan shall not be held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Commitments in effect at the time the Loan was made, then such payment shall be applied to the Loan in such manner as shall result, as nearly as is practicable, in the outstanding principal amount of the Loan being held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Commitments; and (c) each payment of interest on the Loan by the Borrowers shall be made for the account of the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the amounts of interest on the Loan then due and payable to the respective Lenders.

12.6     SHARING OF PAYMENTS, ETC. Lenders agree among themselves that (i) with respect to all amounts received by them which are applicable to the payment of the obligations of Borrowers or Guarantor under the Loan, equitable adjustment will be made so that, in effect, all such amounts will be shared among them ratably in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares in the Loan, whether received by voluntary payment, by counterclaim or cross action or by the enforcement of any or all of such obligations, (ii) if any of them shall by voluntary payment or by the exercise of any right of counterclaim or otherwise, receive payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of such obligations held by it which is greater than its Pro Rata Share in the Loan of the payments on account of such obligations, the one

 

51


receiving such excess payment shall purchase, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation (which it shall be deemed to have done simultaneously upon the receipt of such payment) in such obligations owed to the others so that all such recoveries with respect to such obligations shall be applied ratably in accordance with such Pro Rata Shares; provided, that if all or part of such excess payment received by the purchasing party is thereafter recovered from it, those purchases shall be rescinded and the purchase prices paid for such participations shall be returned to that party to the extent necessary to adjust for such recovery, but without interest except to the extent the purchasing party is required to pay interest in connection with such recovery. Borrowers agree that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant to this Section 12.6 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of Borrowers in the amount of such participation.

12.7     COLLATERAL MATTERS; PROTECTIVE ADVANCES.

 

  (a) Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from any Lender, from time to time prior to a Default, to take any action with respect to any Collateral, Loan Documents or Other Related Documents which may be necessary to perfect and maintain perfected the Liens upon the Collateral granted pursuant to any of the Loan Documents or Other Related Documents.

 

  (b) The Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to release any Lien granted to or held by the Administrative Agent upon any Collateral (i) upon termination of the Commitments and indefeasible payment and satisfaction in full of all of obligations of Borrowers hereunder; (ii) as expressly permitted by, but only in accordance with, the terms of the applicable Loan Document; and (iii) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Requisite Lenders. Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section.

 

  (c) Upon any sale and transfer of Collateral which is expressly permitted pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and upon at least five (5) Business Days’ prior written request by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall (and is hereby irrevocably authorized by the Lenders to) execute such documents as may be necessary to evidence the release of the Liens granted to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders herein or pursuant hereto upon the Collateral that was sold or transferred; provided, however, that (i) the Administrative Agent shall not be required to execute any such document on terms which, in the Administrative Agent’s opinion, would expose the Administrative Agent to liability or create any obligation or entail any consequence other than the release of such Liens without recourse or warranty and (ii) such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect or impair the obligations of Borrowers or any Liens upon (or obligations of the Borrowers or any other Loan Party in respect of) all interests retained by the Borrowers or any other Loan Party, including (without limitation) the proceeds of such sale or transfer, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral. In the event of any sale or transfer of Collateral, or any foreclosure with respect to any of the Collateral, the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to deduct all of the expenses reasonably incurred by the Administrative Agent from the proceeds of any such sale, transfer or foreclosure.

 

  (d)

The Administrative Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to the Lenders or to any other Person to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by the Borrowers or any other Loan Party or is cared for, protected or insured or that the Liens granted to the Administrative Agent herein or pursuant hereto have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise or to continue exercising at all or in any manner or under any

 

52


  duty of care, disclosure or fidelity any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to the Administrative Agent in this Section or in any of the Loan Documents or Other Related Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission or event related thereto, the Administrative Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its sole discretion, given the Administrative Agent’s own interest in the Collateral as one of the Lenders and that the Administrative Agent shall have no duty or liability whatsoever to the Lenders, except to the extent resulting from its gross negligence or willful misconduct.

 

  (e) The Administrative Agent may make, and shall be reimbursed by the Lenders (in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares) to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrowers for, Protective Advances during any one calendar year with respect to any Property that is Collateral up to the sum of (i) amounts expended to pay real estate taxes, assessments and governmental charges or levies imposed upon such Property; (ii) amounts expended to pay insurance premiums for policies of insurance related to such Property; and (iii) $100,000 per Property. Protective Advances in excess of said sum during any calendar year for any Property that is Collateral shall require the consent of the Requisite Lenders. The Borrowers agree to pay on demand all Protective Advances.

 

  (f) Each Lender agrees that it will not take any action, nor institute any actions or proceedings, against Borrowers or any other obligor hereunder under the Loan Documents or the Other Related Documents with respect to exercising claims against or rights in the Collateral without the written consent of Requisite Lenders.

12.8     POST-FORECLOSURE PLANS. If all or any portion of the Collateral is to be acquired by the Administrative Agent as a result of a foreclosure or the acceptance of a deed or assignment in lieu of foreclosure, or is retained in satisfaction of all or any part of the obligations of Borrowers hereunder, the title to any such Collateral, or any portion thereof, shall be held in the name of the Administrative Agent or a nominee or subsidiary of the Administrative Agent, as agent, for the ratable benefit of all Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall prepare a recommended course of action for such Collateral (a “Post-Foreclosure Plan”), which shall be subject to the approval of the Requisite Lenders. In accordance with the approved Post-Foreclosure Plan, the Administrative Agent shall manage, operate, repair, administer, complete, construct, restore or otherwise deal with the Collateral acquired, and shall administer all transactions relating thereto, including, without limitation, employing a management agent, leasing agent and other agents, contractors and employees, including agents for the sale of such Collateral, and the collecting of rents and other sums from such Collateral and paying the expenses of such Collateral. Actions taken by the Administrative Agent with respect to the Collateral, which are not specifically provided for in the approved Post-Foreclosure Plan or reasonably incidental thereto, shall require the written consent of the Requisite Lenders by way of supplement to such Post-Foreclosure Plan. Upon demand therefor from time to time, each Lender will contribute its share (based on its Pro Rata Share) of all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent pursuant to the approved Post-Foreclosure Plan in connection with the construction, operation, management, maintenance, leasing and sale of such Collateral. In addition, the Administrative Agent shall render or cause to be rendered to each Lender, on a monthly basis, an income and expense statement for such Collateral, and each Lender shall promptly contribute its Pro Rata Share of any operating loss for such Collateral, and such other expenses and operating reserves as the Administrative Agent shall deem reasonably necessary pursuant to and in accordance with the approved Post-Foreclosure Plan. To the extent there is net operating income from such Collateral, the Administrative Agent shall, in accordance with the approved Post-Foreclosure Plan, determine the amount and timing of distributions to the Lenders. All such distributions shall be made to the Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares. The Lenders acknowledge and agree that if title to any Collateral is obtained by the Administrative Agent or its nominee, such Collateral will not be held as a permanent investment but will be liquidated as soon as practicable. The Administrative Agent shall undertake to sell such Collateral, at such price and upon such terms and conditions as the Requisite Lenders reasonably shall determine to be most advantageous to the Lenders. Any purchase money mortgage or deed of trust taken in connection with the disposition of such Collateral in accordance

 

53


with the immediately preceding sentence shall name the Administrative Agent, as agent for the Lenders, as the beneficiary or mortgagee. In such case, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall enter into an agreement with respect to such purchase money mortgage or deed of trust defining the rights of the Lenders in the same Pro Rata Shares as provided hereunder, which agreement shall be in all material respects similar to this Article insofar as the same is appropriate or applicable.

12.9     APPROVALS OF LENDERS. All communications from the Administrative Agent to any Lender requesting such Lender’s determination, consent, approval or disapproval (a) shall be given in the form of a written notice to such Lender, (b) shall be accompanied by a description of the matter or issue as to which such determination, approval, consent or disapproval is requested, or shall advise such Lender where information, if any, regarding such matter or issue may be inspected, or shall otherwise describe the matter or issue to be resolved, (c) shall include, if reasonably requested by such Lender and to the extent not previously provided to such Lender, written materials and a summary of all oral information provided to the Administrative Agent by the Borrowers in respect of the matter or issue to be resolved, and (d) shall include the Administrative Agent’s recommended course of action or determination in respect thereof.

12.10   NOTICE OF DEFAULTS. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of a Default or Potential Default unless the Administrative Agent has received notice from a Lender or the Borrowers referring to this Agreement, describing with reasonable specificity such Default or Potential Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. If any Lender (excluding the Lender which is also serving as the Administrative Agent) becomes aware of any Default or Potential Default, it shall promptly send to the Administrative Agent such a “notice of default”. Further, if the Administrative Agent receives such a “notice of default,” the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders.

12.11   ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT’S RELIANCE, ETC. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, any other Loan Documents or the Other Related Documents, neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents, employees or counsel shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with its duties expressly set forth herein or therein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent: may consult with legal counsel (including its own counsel or counsel for the Borrowers or any other Loan Party), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents, employees or counsel: (a) makes any warranty or representation to any Lender or any other Person and shall be responsible to any Lender or any other Person for any statement, warranty or representation made or deemed made by the Borrowers, any other Loan Party or any other Person in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document; (b) shall have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the satisfaction of any conditions precedent under this Agreement or any Loan Document on the part of the Borrowers or other Persons or inspect the property, books or records of the Borrowers or any other Person; (c) shall be responsible to any Lender for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, any other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto or any Collateral covered thereby or the perfection or priority of any Lien in favor of the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders in any such Collateral; (d) shall have any liability in respect of any recitals, statements, certifications, representations or warranties contained in any of the Loan Documents or Other Related Documents or any other document, instrument, agreement, certificate or statement delivered in connection therewith; and (e) shall incur any liability under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by acting upon any

 

54


notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by telephone, telecopy or electronic mail) believed by it to be genuine and signed, sent or given by the proper party or parties. The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under the Loan Documents or Other Related Documents by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct.

12.12   INDEMNIFICATION OF ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT. Regardless of whether the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and Other Related Documents are consummated, each Lender agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrowers and without limiting the obligation of the Borrowers to do so) pro rata in accordance with such Lender’s respective Pro Rata Share, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent but not as a “Lender”) in any way relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents or Other Related Documents, any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents and Other Related Documents (collectively, “Indemnifiable Amounts”); provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such Indemnifiable Amounts to the extent resulting from the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment provided, however, that no action taken in accordance with the directions of the Requisite Lenders shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrowers to do so) promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any out-of-pocket expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of the counsel to the Administrative Agent) incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution, administration, or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings, or otherwise) of, or legal advice with respect to the rights or responsibilities of the parties under, the Loan Documents and Other Related Documents, any suit or action brought by the Administrative Agent to enforce the terms of the Loan Documents and Other Related Documents and/or collect any obligation of Borrower hereunder, any “lender liability” suit or claim brought against the Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders, and any claim or suit brought against the Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders arising under any Hazardous Materials Laws. Such out-of-pocket expenses (including counsel fees) shall be advanced by the Lenders on the request of the Administrative Agent notwithstanding any claim or assertion that the Administrative Agent is not entitled to indemnification hereunder upon receipt of an undertaking by the Administrative Agent that the Administrative Agent will reimburse the Lenders if it is actually and finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that the Administrative Agent is not so entitled to indemnification. The agreements in this Section shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder or under the other Loan Documents or Other Related Documents and the termination of this Agreement. If the Borrowers shall reimburse the Administrative Agent for any Indemnifiable Amount following payment by any Lender to the Administrative Agent in respect of such Indemnifiable Amount pursuant to this Section, the Administrative Agent shall share such reimbursement on a ratable basis with each Lender making any such payment.

12.13   LENDER CREDIT DECISION, ETC. Each Lender expressly acknowledges and agrees that neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, counsel, attorneys-in-fact or other affiliates has made any representations or warranties to such Lender and that no act by the Administrative Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Borrowers, any other Loan Party or Affiliate, shall be deemed to constitute any such representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent to any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any other Lender or counsel to the Administrative Agent, or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents or counsel, and based on the financial statements of the Borrowers, the other Loan Parties or Affiliates, and inquiries of such Persons, its independent due diligence of the business and affairs of the Borrowers, the other Loan Parties and other Persons, its review of the Loan Documents and the Other Related Documents, the legal opinions required

 

55


to be delivered to it hereunder, the advice of its own counsel and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit and legal analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any other Lender or counsel to the Administrative Agent or any of their respective officers, directors, employees and agents, and based on such review, advice, documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under the Loan Documents or Other Related Documents. The Administrative Agent shall not be required to keep itself informed as to the performance or observance by the Borrowers or any other Loan Party of the Loan Documents or Other Related Documents or any other document referred to or provided for therein or to inspect the properties or books of, or make any other investigation of, the Borrowers, any other Loan Party. Except for notices, reports and other documents and information expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or Other Related Documents, the Administrative Agent shall have no duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of the Borrowers, any other Loan Party or any other Affiliate thereof which may come into possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or other Affiliates. Each Lender acknowledges that the Administrative Agent’s legal counsel in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is only acting as counsel to the Administrative Agent and is not acting as counsel to such Lender.

12.14   SUCCESSOR ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT. Administrative Agent may resign at any time as Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents and Other Related Documents by giving written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrowers. Upon any such resignation, the Requisite Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent which appointment shall, provided no Default or Potential Default exists, be subject to the Borrower’s approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed (except that the Borrowers shall, in all events, be deemed to have approved each Lender and any of its Affiliates as a successor Administrative Agent). If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, and shall have accepted such appointment, within thirty (30) days after the current Administrative Agent’s giving of notice of resignation, then the current Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a Lender, if any Lender shall be willing to serve, and otherwise shall be an Eligible Assignee. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the current Administrative Agent, and the current Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents and the Other Related Documents. After any Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article 12. shall continue to inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents and the Other Related Documents. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Administrative Agent may assign its rights and duties under the Loan Documents and the Other Related Documents to any of its Affiliates by giving the Borrower and each Lender prior written notice.

12.17   NO SET-OFFS. Each Lender hereby acknowledges that the exercise by any Lender of offset, set-off, banker’s lien or similar rights against any deposit account or other property or asset of Borrowers, regardless of the state in which the property is located, could result under certain laws in significant impairment of the ability of all Lenders to recover any further amounts in respect of the Loan. Therefore, each Lender agrees not to charge or offset any amount owed to it by Borrowers against any of the accounts, property or assets of Borrowers or any of its affiliates held by such Lender without the prior written approval of Administrative Agent and Requisite Lenders.

Notwithstanding anything contained herein, in every instance the Borrowers shall be required to provide paper copies of the certificates required by Section 10.1(c) and Exhibit C to the Administrative Agent and shall deliver paper copies of any documents to the Administrative Agent or to any Lender that requests such paper copies until a written request to cease delivering paper copies is given by the Administrative Agent or such Lender.

C.

As a condition to making the Loan secured by the Mortgage, Administrative Agent requires that the Mortgage be unconditionally and at all times remain a lien on the Property, prior and superior to all the rights of Lessee under the Lease and that the Lessee specifically and unconditionally subordinate the Lease to the lien of the Mortgage.

 

D.

Owner and Lessee have agreed to the subordination, attornment and other agreements herein in favor of Administrative Agent.

NOW THEREFORE, for valuable consideration and to induce Administrative Agent to make the Loan, Owner and Lessee hereby agree for the benefit of Administrative Agent as follows:

 

EXHIBIT C - Page 1


1.

SUBORDINATION. Owner and Lessee hereby agree that:

 

  1.1

Prior Lien. The Mortgage securing the Note in favor of Administrative Agent, and any modifications, renewals or extensions thereof, shall unconditionally be and at all times remain a lien on the Property prior and superior to the Lease;

 

  1.2

Subordination. Administrative Agent would not make the Loan without this agreement to subordinate; and

 

  1.3

Whole Agreement. This Agreement shall be the whole agreement and only agreement with regard to the subordination of the Lease to the lien of the Mortgage and shall supersede and cancel, but only insofar as would affect the priority between the Mortgage and the Lease, any prior agreements as to such subordination, including, without limitation, those provisions, if any, contained in the Lease which provide for the subordination of the Lease to a deed or deeds of trust or to a mortgage or mortgages.

AND FURTHER, Lessee individually declares, agrees and acknowledges for the benefit of Lender, that:

 

  1.4

Use of Proceeds. Administrative Agent, in making disbursements pursuant to the Note, the Mortgage or any loan agreements with respect to the Property, is under no obligation or duty to, nor has Administrative Agent represented that it will, see to the application of such proceeds by the person or persons to whom Administrative Agent disburses such proceeds, and any application or use of such proceeds for purposes other than those provided for in such agreement or agreements shall not defeat this agreement to subordinate in whole or in part;

 

  1.5

Waiver, Relinquishment and Subordination. Lessee intentionally and unconditionally waives, relinquishes and subordinates all of Lessee’s right, title and interest in and to the Property to the lien of the Mortgage and understands that in reliance upon, and in consideration of, this waiver, relinquishment and subordination, specific loans and advances are being and will be made by Administrative Agent and, as part and parcel thereof, specific monetary and other obligations are being and will be entered into which would not be made or entered into but for said reliance upon this waiver, relinquishment and subordination.

 

2.

  3.1

Modification, Termination and Cancellation. Lessee will not consent to any modification, amendment, termination or cancellation of the Lease (in whole or in part) without giving Administrative Agent prior written notice thereof and will not make any payment to Lessor in consideration of any modification, termination or cancellation of the Lease (in whole or in part) without giving Administrative Agent prior written notice thereof;

 

  3.2

Notice of Default. Lessee will notify Administrative Agent in writing concurrently with any notice given to Lessor of any default by Lessor under the Lease, and Lessee agrees that Administrative Agent has the right (but not the obligation) to cure any breach or default specified in such notice within the time periods set forth below and Lessee will not declare a default of the Lease, as to Administrative Agent, if Administrative Agent cures such default within fifteen (15) days from and after the expiration of the time period provided in the Lease for the cure thereof by Lessor; provided, however, that if such default cannot with diligence be cured by Administrative Agent within such fifteen (15)

 

EXHIBIT C - Page 2


  day period, the commencement of action by Administrative Agent within such fifteen (15) day period to remedy the same shall be deemed sufficient so long as Administrative Agent pursues such cure with diligence;

 

  3.3

No Advance Rents. Lessee will make no payments or prepayments of rent more than one (1) month in advance of the time when the same become due under the Lease; and

 

  3.4

Assignment of Rents. Upon receipt by Lessee of written notice from Administrative Agent that Administrative Agent has elected to terminate the license granted to Lessor to collect rents, as provided in the Mortgage, and directing the payment of rents by Lessee to Administrative Agent, Lessee shall comply with such direction to pay and shall not be required to determine whether Lessor is in default under the Loan and/or the Mortgage.

 

4.

ATTORNMENT. In the event of a foreclosure under the Mortgage, Lessee agrees for the benefit of Administrative Agent (including for this purpose any transferee of Administrative Agent or any transferee of Lessor’s title in and to the Property by Administrative Agent’s exercise of the remedy of sale by foreclosure under the Mortgage) as follows:

 

  4.1

Payment of Rent. Lessee shall pay to Administrative Agent all rental payments required to be made by Lessee pursuant to the terms of the Lease for the duration of the term of the Lease;

 

  4.2

Continuation of Performance. Lessee shall be bound to Administrative Agent in accordance with all of the provisions of the Lease for the balance of the term thereof, and Lessee hereby attorns to Administrative Agent as its landlord, such attornment to be effective and self operative without the execution of any further instrument immediately upon Lender succeeding to Lessor’s interest in the Lease and giving written notice thereof to Lessee;

 

  4.3

No Offset. Administrative Agent shall not be liable for, nor subject to, any offsets or defenses which Lessee may have by reason of any act or omission of Lessor under the Lease, nor for the return of any sums which Lessee may have paid to Lessor under the Lease as and for security deposits, advance rentals or otherwise, except to the extent that such sums are actually delivered by Lessor to Administrative Agent; and

 

  4.4

Subsequent Transfer. If Administrative Agent, by succeeding to the interest of Lessor under the Lease, should become obligated to perform the covenants of Lessor thereunder, then, upon any further transfer of Lessor’s interest by Administrative Agent, all of such obligations shall terminate as to Administrative Agent.

 

5.

NON-DISTURBANCE. In the event of a foreclosure under the Mortgage, so long as there shall then exist no breach, default, or event of default on the part of Lessee under the Lease, Administrative Agent agrees for itself and its successors and assigns that the leasehold interest of Lessee under the Lease shall not be extinguished or terminated by reason of such foreclosure, but rather the Lease shall continue in full force and effect and Administrative Agent shall recognize and accept Lessee as tenant under the Lease subject to the terms and provisions of the Lease except as modified by this Agreement; provided, however, that Lessee and Administrative Agent agree that the following provisions of the Lease (if any) shall not be binding on Administrative Agent: any option to purchase with respect to the Property; any right of first refusal with respect to the Property; any provision regarding the use of insurance proceeds or condemnation proceeds with respect to the Property which is inconsistent with the terms of the Mortgage.

SECURED PROMISSORY NOTE

 

$                                                , 20    

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, KBSII 350 PLUMERIA, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, KBSII MOUNTAIN VIEW, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, KBSII ONE MAIN PLACE, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and KBSII PIERRE LACLEDE CENTER, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Borrowers”), HEREBY PROMISE TO PAY to the order of                                          (“Lender”) the principal sum of                                          Dollars ($                    ), or if less, the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all disbursements disbursed by Lender pursuant to the requirements set forth in the Loan Agreement dated as of                                         , 2010 (as amended, supplemented or restated from time to time the “Loan Agreement”), among Borrowers, Lender, certain other Lenders named therein or made parties thereto and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent, together with interest on the unpaid principal balance hereof at the rate (or rates) determined in accordance with Section 2.7 of the Loan Agreement from the date such principal is advanced until it is paid in full. It is contemplated that there will be advances and payments under this Note from time to time, but no advances or payments under this Note (including payment in full of the unpaid balance of principal hereof prior to maturity) shall affect or impair the validity or enforceability of this Note as to future advances hereunder.

This Note is one of the Notes referred to in and governed by the Loan Agreement, which Loan Agreement, among other things, contains provisions for the acceleration of the maturity hereof and for the payment of certain additional sums to Lender upon the happening of certain stated events. Capitalized terms used in this Note without definition have the same meanings as in the Loan Agreement.

The principal amount of this Note, unless accelerated in accordance with Loan Agreement as described below, if not sooner paid, will be due and payable, together with all accrued and unpaid interest and other amounts due and unpaid under the Loan Agreement, on the Maturity Date.

This Note is secured by, among other things, the Security Documents referred to in the Loan Agreement.

Interest on the Loans is payable in arrears on the first Business Day of each month during the term of the Loan Agreement, commencing with the first Business Day of the first calendar month to begin after the date of this Note. Interest will be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which interest accrues and a year of three hundred sixty (360) days. The Loan Agreement provides for the payment by Borrower of various other charges and fees, in addition to the interest charges described in the Loan Agreement, as set forth more fully in the Loan Agreement.

All payments of any amount becoming due under this Note shall be made in the manner provided in the Loan Agreement, in Dollars.

Upon and after the occurrence of a Default, unless such Default is waived as provided in the Loan Agreement, this Note may, at the option of Requisite Lenders and without further demand, notice or legal process of any kind, be declared by Administrative Agent, and in such case immediately shall become, due and payable. Upon and after the occurrence of certain Defaults, this Note shall, without any action by Lenders and without demand, notice or legal process of any kind, automatically and immediately become due and payable.

 

EXHIBIT E – Page 1


Demand, presentment, protest and notice of nonpayment and protest, notice of intention to accelerate maturity, notice of acceleration of maturity and notice of dishonor are hereby waived by Borrower. Subject to the terms of the Loan Agreement, Lender may extend the time of payment of this Note, postpone the enforcement hereof, grant any indulgences, release any party primarily or secondarily liable hereon or agree to any subordination of Borrower’s obligations hereunder without affecting or diminishing Lender’s right of recourse against Borrower, which right is hereby expressly reserved.

This Note has been delivered and accepted at                         . This Note shall be interpreted in accordance with, and the rights and liabilities of the parties hereto shall be determined and governed by, the laws of the State of California.

All notices or other communications required or permitted to be given pursuant to this Note shall be given to the Borrowers or Lender at the address and in the manner provided for in the Loan Agreement.

In no contingency or event whatsoever shall interest charged in respect of the Loan evidenced hereby, however such interest may be characterized or computed, exceed the highest rate permissible under any law that a court of competent jurisdiction shall, in a final determination, deem applicable hereto. If such a court determines that Lender has received interest hereunder in excess of the highest rate applicable hereto, Lender shall, at Lender’s election, either (a) promptly refund such excess interest to Borrower or (b) credit such excess to the principal balance hereof. This provision shall control over every other provision of all agreements between Borrower and Lender.

Whenever possible each provision of this Note shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Note shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Note.

The limitations on personal liability of the shareholders, partners and members of Borrowers contained in Section 13.27 of the Loan Agreement shall apply to this Note.

[This Note is issued in replacement of a Note dated                          in the amount of $                    , previously issued by Borrower to                      pursuant to the Loan Agreement and shall evidence a Loan made by                      that is outstanding as of the date hereof, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon and other amounts payable with respect thereto, as well as future advances hereunder.]

Actual Expiration Percentage” means the ratio (expressed as a percentage) of (a) all Gross Rental Income derived from leases expiring during the relevant Reference Period to (b) all Gross Rent Income derived from the leases of all remaining Properties.

Adjusted Committed Loan Constant” means an amount equal to the Committed Loan Constant; however, for purposes of calculating Gross Operating Income (as an input for Net Operating Income, and in turn Committed Loan Constant), a portion of Gross Rental Income in an amount equal to the product of Gross Rental Income derived from leases expiring within the relevant Reference Period multiplied by the Reduction Percentage, shall be excluded.

Reduction Percentage” means a percentage equal to an amount determined by dividing (a) the difference obtained when subtracting the Reference Percentage from the Actual Expiration Percentage for the applicable Reference Period, by (b) the Actual Expiration Percentage.

Reference Percentage” means, with respect to the Reference Period described in clause (a) of the definition of Reference Period, 30%; and (b) with respect to the Reference Period described in clause (b) of the definition of Reference Period, 40%; and (c) with respect to the Reference Period described in clause (c) of the definition of Reference Period, 50%.

Reference Period” means, with respect to lease expiration, (a) the period between the Initial Maturity Date and the Extended Maturity Date, (b) the period between the Initial Maturity Date and the date which is twelve months after the Extended Maturity Date and (c) the period between the Initial Maturity Date and the date which is twenty-four months after the Extended Maturity Date, as applicable.

 

  Example:   Assuming that as of the Initial Maturity Date (i) $4,000,000, which is equal to 40% of Gross Rental Income from all Properties remaining encumbered by the Security documents (i.e., all such Properties are yielding $10,000,000 of Gross Rental Income), is derived from Leases expiring on or before the Extended Maturity Date, (ii) $5,000,000, which is 50% of the Gross Rental Income from all Properties remaining encumbered by the Security Documents, is to be derived from Leases expiring between the Initial Maturity Date and the date which is twelve (12) months after the Extended Maturity Date and (iii) $7,500,000, or 75% of the Gross Rental Income from all Properties remaining encumbered by the Security Documents, is to be derived from Leases expiring between the Initial Maturity Date and the date which twenty-four (24) months after the Extended Maturity Date, then the Gross Rental Income used for purposes of calculating Gross Operating Income (as an input for Net Operating Income, and in turn Committed Loan Constant) shall be the least of the following:

 

  A. $10,000,000 – (((40%-30%)/40%)*4,000,000) = $9,000,000

 

  B. $10,000,000 - (((50%-40%)/50%)*5,000,000) = $9,000,000

 

  C. $10,000,000 - (((75%-50%)/75%)*7,500,000) = $7,500,000

Reduction Percentage” means a percentage equal to an amount determined by dividing (a) the difference between the relevant Reference Percentage and the Actual Expiration Percentage for the applicable Reference Period, by (b) the Actual Expiration Percentage.

Reference Percentage” means, with respect to the Reference Period described in clause (a) of the definition of Reference Period, 30%; and (b) with respect to the Reference Period described in clause (b) of the definition of Reference Period, 40%; and (c) with respect to the Reference Period described in clause (c) of the definition of Reference Period, 50%.
