  (e) On or before the Original Maturity Date, Borrower shall pay to Lender an extension fee in the amount of one-fifth of one percent (0.20%) of the total commitment amount of the Loan (whether disbursed or undisbursed), as determined on the Original Maturity Date; and

 

  (f) At Lender’s option, Lender shall have received a written appraisal dated within ninety (90) days of the Original Maturity Date and prepared in conformance with the requirements of the Comptroller of the Currency confirming to the satisfaction of Lender that the outstanding principal amount of the Loan as a percentage of the “as-is” value of the portion of the Property and Improvements then remaining encumbered by the Deed of Trust (after adjustment for senior liens and regular and special tax assessments) as of the Original Maturity Date does not exceed the Loan-to-Value Percentage; provided, however, if such “as-is” value is not adequate to meet the required Loan-to-Value Percentage, then Borrower shall have the right to pay down the outstanding principal balance of the B-2/B-3 Sublimit such that said Loan-to-Value Percentage may be met. Any amounts repaid may not be reborrowed; and

 

  (g) At Lender’s option, Lender shall have received a written appraisal dated within ninety (90) days of the Original Maturity Date and prepared in conformance with the requirements of the Comptroller of the Currency confirming to the satisfaction of Lender that the commitment amount of the Loan as a percentage of the “as-stabilized” value of the portion of the Property and Improvements then remaining encumbered by the Deed of Trust (after adjustment for senior liens and regular and special tax assessments) as of the Original Maturity Date does not exceed the Loan-to-Value Percentage; provided, however, if such “as-stabilized” value is not adequate to meet the required Loan-to-Value Percentage, then Borrower shall have the right to pay down the outstanding principal balance of the B-2/B-3 Sublimit such that said Loan-to-Value Percentage may be met.

  (i) If Borrower has commenced construction of the Renovation Improvements, the sum of the undisbursed proceeds of the Loan, plus Borrower’s Funds on deposit in the Borrower’s Funds Account, plus any Borrower’s Retained Funds shall be sufficient to pay all costs to achieve Stabilization of the B-1 Building.

Except as modified by this First Option to Extend, the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as modified and approved by Lender shall remain unmodified and in full force and effect; provided that, upon written notice to Borrower, Lender may, in its sole and absolute discretion, require Borrower to commence amortization of principal under the Loan on a monthly basis, with such payments of principal to be paid on each date on which payment of interest is due in an amount sufficient to repay in full the then commitment amount of the Loan assuming, for purposes of calculating such monthly amortization, (i) an amortization period of thirty (30) years, (ii) a rate of interest equal to five and one-half percent (5.5%), and (iii) equal monthly payments of principal and interest.

  (a) Borrower shall provide Lender with written notice of Borrower’s request to exercise the Second Option to Extend not more than ninety (90) days but not less than thirty (30) days prior to the First Extended Maturity Date; and

  (c) Borrower shall execute or cause the execution of all documents reasonably required by Lender to exercise the Second Option to Extend and shall deliver to Lender, at Borrower’s sole cost and expense, such title insurance endorsements reasonably required by Lender; and

 

  (d) There shall have occurred no material adverse change, as reasonably determined by Lender, in the financial condition of Borrower, any Guarantor, or any Indemnitor from that which existed as of the later of: (A) the Effective Date; or (B) the date upon which the financial condition of such party was first represented to Lender; and

 

  (e) On or before the First Extended Maturity Date, Borrower shall pay to Lender an extension fee in the amount of one-fifth of one percent (0.20%) of the total commitment amount of the Loan (whether disbursed or undisbursed), as determined on the First Extended Maturity Date; and

 

  (f) If Borrower has commenced construction of the Renovation Improvements, the sum of the undisbursed proceeds of the Loan, plus Borrower’s Funds on deposit in the Borrower’s Funds Account, plus any Borrower’s Retained Funds shall be sufficient to pay all costs to achieve Stabilization of the B-1Building; and

 

  (g) The Debt Yield shall be not less than eleven percent (11%); provided, however, that Borrower shall have the right to repay a portion of the outstanding principal balance of the B-2/B-3 Sublimit in order to satisfy the foregoing condition. For purposes of calculating the Debt Yield, the “Reference Date” shall be June 30, 2014.

Except as modified by this Second Option to Extend, the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as modified and approved by Lender shall remain unmodified and in full force and effect; provided that, upon written notice to Borrower, Lender may, in its sole and absolute discretion, require Borrower to commence amortization of principal under the Loan on a monthly basis, with such payments of principal to be paid on each date on which payment of interest is due in an amount sufficient to repay in full the then outstanding principal balance of the Loan assuming, for purposes of calculating such monthly amortization, (i) an amortization period of thirty (30) years, (ii) a rate of interest equal to five and one-half percent (5.5%), and (iii) equal monthly payments of principal and interest. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, if Lender required Borrower to commence amortization payments in connection with the First Option to Extend, then the foregoing shall not be applicable; provided, Lender may require Borrower to continue making amortization payments, in the amounts and on the dates, required in connection with the First Option to Extend.

 

  2.11 BILL LEAD DATE REQUEST. By written notice to Lender, Borrower may request to receive monthly billings on a date (the “Bill Lead Date”) that is prior to the first day of the month. Lender will submit to Borrower monthly billings, which will consist of actual interest and principal due through the Bill Lead Date plus projected interest and principal due through the balance of the month. Any necessary adjustments in the applicable interest rate and/or principal payments due or made between a Bill Lead Date and the end of the month will be reflected as an additional charge (or credit) in the billing for the next following month. Neither the failure of Lender to submit a Bill Lead Date billing nor any error in any such billing will excuse Borrower’s obligation to make full payment of all amounts due under this Agreement. In its sole discretion, Lender may cancel or modify the terms of such request which cancellation or modification will be effective upon written notification to Borrower. Should Borrower request a Bill Lead Date, Lender shall not be required to prepare a month end invoice.

Borrower agrees to be bound by any transfer request: (i) authorized or transmitted by Borrower; or, (ii) made in Borrower’s name and accepted by Lender in good faith and in compliance with these transfer instructions, even if not properly authorized by Borrower. Borrower further agrees and acknowledges that Lender may rely solely on any bank routing number or identifying bank account number or name provided by Borrower to effect a wire or funds transfer even if the information provided by Borrower identifies a different bank or account holder than named by the Borrower. Lender is not obligated or required in any way to take any actions to detect errors in information provided by Borrower. If Lender takes any actions in an attempt to detect errors in the transmission or content of transfer or requests or takes any actions in an attempt to detect unauthorized funds transfer requests, Borrower agrees that no matter how many times Lender takes these actions Lender will not in any situation be liable for failing to take or correctly perform these actions in the future and such actions shall not become any part of the transfer disbursement procedures authorized under this provision, the Loan Documents, or any agreement between Lender and Borrower. Borrower agrees to notify Lender of any errors in the transfer of any funds or of any unauthorized or improperly authorized transfer requests within 14 days after Lender’s confirmation to Borrower of such transfer. Lender will, in its sole discretion, determine the funds transfer system and the means by which each transfer will be made. Lender may delay or refuse to accept a funds transfer request if the transfer would: (i) violate the terms of this authorization (ii) require use of a bank unacceptable to Lender or prohibited by government authority; (iii) cause Lender to violate any Federal Reserve or other regulatory risk control program or guideline, or (iv) otherwise cause Lender to violate any applicable law or regulation. Lender shall not be liable to Borrower or any other parties for (i) errors, acts or failures to act of others, including other entities, banks, communications carriers or clearinghouses, through which Borrower’s transfers may be made or information received or transmitted, and no such entity shall be deemed an agent of the Lender, (ii) any loss, liability or delay caused by fires, earthquakes, wars, civil disturbances, power surges or failures, acts of government, labor disputes, failures in communications networks, legal constraints or other events beyond Lender’s control, or (iii) any special, consequential, indirect or punitive damages, whether or not (a) any claim for these damages is based on tort or contract or (b) Lender or Borrower knew or should have known the likelihood of these damages in any situation. Lender makes no representations or warranties other than those expressly made in this Agreement.

  (b) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, Borrower shall not make any changes in the Plans and Specifications approved by Lender without Lender’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, if such change: (i) constitutes a material change in the building material or equipment specifications, or in the architectural or structural design, value or quality of any of the Renovation Improvements; (ii) would result in an increase of construction costs in excess of $100,000 for any single change after all such changes exceed $200,000, or in excess of $600,000 for all such changes; or (iii) would affect the structural integrity, quality of building materials, or overall efficiency of operating systems of the Renovation Improvements. Without limiting the above, Lender agrees that Borrower may make minor changes in the Plans and Specifications, as well as changes required by governmental authorities, without Lender’s prior written consent, provided that such changes do not violate any of the conditions specified herein.

Borrower agrees that Lender may disapprove any contractor, subcontractor or material supplier which, in Lender’s good faith determination, is deemed financially or otherwise unqualified; provided, however, that Lender shall not unreasonably disapprove any contractor, subcontractor or material supplier for which Borrower has obtained contractor default insurance; and further provided, however, that the absence of any such disapproval shall not constitute a warranty or representation of qualification by Lender. Lender may contact any such contractor, subcontractor or material supplier to discuss the course of construction, upon Lender’s request Borrower shall coordinate a meeting among Borrower, Lender and such contractor, subcontractor or material supplier for such purpose.

 

  4.6 PROHIBITED CONTRACTS.

  4.11 CONSENT PROCESS. Borrower acknowledges that any Lender’s consent required pursuant to this Article 4 may result in delays in construction and hereby consents to any such delays; provided, however, that if Lender has not consented or denied approval to any submission within ten (10) calendar days, Borrower shall provide written notice to Lender, and Lender shall have an additional period of five (5) Business Days to respond to such submission. If Lender fails to consent or deny to such submission within the additional five (5) Business Day period, Lender shall be deemed to have consented to such submission. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Lender responds in writing to Borrower at any time within the ten (10) calendar day or five (5) Business Day periods previously described with an estimated timeframe for Lender’s delivery of its response to the submission (“Lender’s Estimated Response Time”), Lender shall not be deemed to have consented to such submission if Lender fails to consent or deny the submission with the time periods described above.

Any inspection or review of the Renovation Improvements by Lender is solely to determine whether Borrower is properly discharging its obligations to Lender and may not be relied upon by Borrower or by any third party as a representation or warranty of compliance with this Agreement or any other agreement. Lender owes no duty of care to Borrower or any third party to protect against, or to inform Borrower or any third party of, any negligent, faulty, inadequate or defective design or construction of the Renovation Improvements as determined by Lender. If specifically requested by Borrower within twenty-four (24) hours after its receipt of an inspection notice from Lender, Borrower shall have the right to approve, with respect to any third-party contractor performing an inspection on Lender’s behalf: (i) the personal injury, property, automobile (to the extent such contractor drives onto the Property), and, to the extent such contractor is performing inspections pursuant to Section 7.3 hereof, pollution liability, insurance of such third party inspecting contractor, (ii) the certificates of insurance and endorsements evidencing such insurance requirements, and (iii) the manner and the verbiage by which Borrower is listed as an additional insured on such third party inspecting contractor’s insurance. Borrower shall thereafter monitor such third party inspecting contractor’s compliance with the insurance requirements approved by Borrower as described above, and if such insurance does not thereafter satisfy the original insurance requirements approved by Borrower or any approved modifications thereto, Borrower may prevent the third party inspecting contractor from performing such inspections on the Property. Borrower’s approval of the matters described in this Section 4.12 shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and Borrower acknowledges that its failure to approve or confirm the insurance requirements relating to Lender’s third party inspecting contractor could result in delays in the funding of disbursements of the B-1 Sublimit.

20


 

reputation, prior experience in developing and constructing commercial real property, Lender’s knowledge of Borrower, and Lender’s understanding that this Agreement is more in the nature of an agreement involving personal services than a standard loan where Lender would rely on security which already exists.

 

  9.9 MANAGEMENT AND LEASING AGREEMENTS.

  9.14 LIMITATIONS ON DISTRIBUTIONS, ETC. Following the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default, Borrower shall not distribute any money or other property to any partner of Borrower, whether in the form of earnings, income or other proceeds from the Property and Improvements, nor shall Borrower repay any principal or interest on any loan or other advance made to Borrower by any partner, nor shall Borrower loan or advance any funds to any such partner.

25


  12.5 ATTORNEY-IN-FACT. Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes Lender, as Borrower’s attorney-in-fact, which agency is coupled with an interest, to execute and/or record in Lender’s or Borrower’s name any notices, instruments or documents that Lender deems appropriate to protect Lender’s interest under any of the Loan Documents.

 

  12.6 ACTIONS. Borrower agrees that Lender, in exercising the rights, duties or liabilities of Lender or Borrower under the Loan Documents, may commence, appear in or defend any action or proceeding purporting to affect the Property, the Improvements, or the Loan Documents and Borrower shall immediately reimburse Lender upon demand for all such reasonable expenses so incurred or paid by Lender, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and expenses and court costs.

 

  12.7 RIGHT OF CONTEST. Borrower may contest in good faith any claim, demand, levy or assessment (including mechanics’ and materialmens’ liens and stop notices) by any person other than Lender which would constitute a Default if: (a) Borrower pursues the contest diligently, in a manner which Lender reasonably determines is not prejudicial to Lender, and does not impair the rights of Lender under any of the Loan Documents; and (b) Borrower deposits with Lender any funds or other forms of assurance which Lender in good faith determines from time to time appropriate to protect Lender from the consequences of the contest being unsuccessful. Borrower’s compliance with this Section shall operate to prevent such claim, demand, levy or assessment from becoming a Default.

 

  12.8 RELATIONSHIP OF PARTIES. The relationship of Borrower and Lender under the Loan Documents is, and shall at all times remain, solely that of borrower and lender, and Lender neither undertakes nor assumes any responsibility or duty to Borrower or to any third party with respect to the Property or Improvements, except as expressly provided in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

 

  12.9 DELAY OUTSIDE LENDER’S CONTROL. Lender shall not be liable in any way to Borrower or any third party for Lender’s failure to perform or delay in performing under the Loan Documents (and Lender may suspend or terminate all or any portion of Lender’s obligations under the Loan Documents) if such failure to perform or delay in performing results directly or indirectly from, or is based upon, the action, inaction, or purported action, of any governmental or local authority, or because of war, rebellion, insurrection, strike, lock-out, boycott or blockade (whether presently in effect, announced or in the sole judgment of Lender deemed probable), or from any Act of God or other cause or event beyond Lender’s control.

 

  12.10 ATTORNEYS’ FEES AND EXPENSES; ENFORCEMENT. If any attorney is engaged by Lender to enforce or defend any provision of this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or Other Related Documents, or as a consequence of any Default under the Loan Documents, with or without the filing of any legal action or proceeding, and including, without limitation, any fees and expenses incurred in any bankruptcy proceeding of the Borrower, then Borrower shall immediately pay to Lender, upon demand, the amount of all attorneys’ fees and expenses and all costs reasonably incurred by Lender in connection therewith, together with interest thereon from the date of such demand until paid at the rate of interest applicable to the principal balance of the Note as specified therein.

 

  12.11 IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE FUNDS. Unless otherwise expressly provided for in this Agreement, all amounts payable by Borrower to Lender shall be payable only in United States currency, immediately available funds.

 

  12.12 LENDER’S CONSENT. Wherever in this Agreement there is a requirement for Lender’s consent and/or a document to be provided or an action taken “to the satisfaction of Lender”, it is understood by such phrase that Lender shall exercise its consent, right or judgment in a reasonable manner given the specific facts and circumstance applicable at the time.

 

  12.13

LOAN SALES AND PARTICIPATIONS; DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION. Borrower agrees that Lender may elect, at any time, to grant participations in and, with the prior consent of Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), Borrower agrees that Lender may elect, at any time, to sell or assign, all or any portion of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents, and that any such sale, assignment or participation may be to one or more financial institutions, private investors, and/or other entities, at Lender’s sole discretion (“Participant”); provided, however, (i) Borrower’s consent to a sale or assignment shall not be required (x) if a Default shall exist or (y) in the case of an assignment to an affiliate of Lender; or (z) if the Loan is fully disbursed to Borrower. Borrower further agrees that Lender may disseminate to any such actual or potential purchaser(s), assignee(s) or participant(s) all documents and information (including, without limitation, all financial information) which has been or is

 

26


 

hereafter provided to or known to Lender with respect to: (a) the Property and Improvements and its operation; (b) any party connected with the Loan (including, without limitation, the Borrower, any partner, joint venturer or member of Borrower, any constituent partner, joint venturer or member of Borrower, any Guarantor, and any Indemnitor); and/or (c) any lending relationship other than the Loan which Lender may have with any party connected with the Loan. In the event of any such sale, assignment or participation, Lender and the parties to such transaction shall share in the rights and obligations of Lender as set forth in the Loan Documents only as and to the extent they agree among themselves. In connection with any such sale, assignment or participation, Borrower further agrees that the Loan Documents shall be sufficient evidence of the obligations of Borrower to each purchaser, assignee, or participant, and upon written request by Lender, Borrower shall enter into such amendments or modifications to the Loan Documents as may be reasonably required in order to evidence any such sale, assignment or participation. The indemnity obligations of Borrower under the Loan Documents shall also apply with respect to any purchaser, assignee or participant.

Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, and without the need to comply with any of the formal or procedural requirements of this Agreement, including this Section, any lender may at any time and from time to time pledge and assign all or any portion of its rights under all or any of the Loan Documents to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from its obligations thereunder.

 

  12.14 CAPITAL ADEQUACY. If Lender or any Participant in the Loan determines that compliance with any law or regulation or with any guideline or request from any central bank or other governmental agency (whether or not having the force of law) affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by Lender or such Participant, or any corporation controlling Lender or such Participant, as a consequence of, or with reference to, Lender’s or such Participant’s or such corporation’s commitments or its making or maintaining advances below the rate which Lender or such Participant or such corporation controlling Lender could have achieved but for such compliance (taking into account the policies of Lender or such Participant or corporation with regard to capital), then Borrower shall, from time to time, within thirty (30) calendar days after written demand by Lender or such Participant, pay to Lender or such Participant additional amounts sufficient to compensate Lender or such Participant or such corporation controlling Lender to the extent that Lender determines such increase in capital is allocable to Lender’s obligations hereunder. A certificate as to such amounts, submitted to Borrower by Lender or such Participant, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. This provision shall only be effective as to the Borrower and this Loan to the extent that this provision is (or substantially similar provisions are) being applied by Lender in a generally uniform manner to all borrowers of a similar nature and loans of a similar type and are not being only particularly applied to the specific Borrower hereunder and this specific Loan.

 

  12.15 SIGNS. Lender may place on the Property reasonable signs standard to construction loan transactions stating that construction financing is being provided by Lender and any other lenders or participants in the Loan.

 

  12.16 LENDER’S AGENTS. Lender may designate an agent or independent contractor to exercise any of Lender’s rights under this Agreement and any of the other Loan Documents. Any reference to Lender in any of the Loan Documents shall include Lender’s agents, employees or independent contractors. Borrower shall pay the costs of such agent or independent contractor either directly to such person or to Lender in reimbursement of such costs, as applicable.

 

  12.17 TAX SERVICE. Lender is authorized to secure, at Borrower’s expense, a tax service contract with a third party vendor which shall provide tax information on the Property and Improvements satisfactory to Lender.

 

  12.18 BORROWER’S WAIVER. Borrower hereby waives all of its rights under California Civil Code Section 2822, which provides as follows: “(a) The acceptance, by a creditor, of anything in partial satisfaction of an obligation, reduces the obligation of a surety thereof, in the same measure as that of the principal, but does not otherwise affect it. However, if the surety is liable upon only a portion of an obligation and the principal provides partial satisfaction of the obligation, the principal may designate the portion of the obligation that is to be satisfied; and (b) For purposes of this section and Section 2819, an agreement by a creditor to accept from the principal debtor a sum less than the balance owed on the original obligation, without the prior consent of the surety and without any other change to the underlying agreement between the creditor and principal debtor, shall not exonerate the surety for the lesser sum agreed upon by the creditor and principal debtor.”

 

27


  12.19 SEVERABILITY. If any provision or obligation under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that provision shall be deemed severed from the Loan Documents and the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations shall remain in full force as though the invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provision had never been a part of the Loan Documents, provided, however, that if the rate of interest or any other amount payable under the Note or this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the right of collectibility therefor, are declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be or become invalid, illegal or unenforceable, Lender’s obligations to make advances under the Loan Documents shall not be enforceable by Borrower.

 

  12.20 HEIRS, SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. Except as otherwise expressly provided under the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the terms of the Loan Documents shall bind and inure to the benefit of the heirs, successors and assigns of the parties.

 

  12.21 TIME. Time is of the essence of each and every term of this Agreement.

 

  12.22 HEADINGS. All article, section or other headings appearing in this Agreement and any of the other Loan Documents are for convenience of reference only and shall be disregarded in construing this Agreement and any of the other Loan Documents.

 

  12.23 GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of California, except to the extent preempted by federal laws. Borrower and all persons and entities in any manner obligated to Lender under the Loan Documents consent to the jurisdiction of any federal or state court within the State of California having proper venue and also consent to service of process by any means authorized by California or federal law.

 

  12.24 USA PATRIOT ACT NOTICE. COMPLIANCE. The USA Patriot Act of 2001 (Public Law 107-56) and federal regulations issued with respect thereto require all financial institutions to obtain, verify and record certain information that identifies individuals or business entities which open an “account” with such financial institution. Consequently, Lender may from time-to-time request, and Borrower shall provide to Lender, Borrower’s name, address, tax identification number and/or such other identification information as shall be necessary for Lender to comply with federal law. An “account” for this purpose may include, without limitation, a deposit account, cash management service, a transaction or asset account, a credit account, a loan or other extension of credit, and/or other financial services product.

 

  12.25 INTEGRATION; INTERPRETATION. The Loan Documents contain or expressly incorporate by reference the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the matters contemplated therein and supersede all prior negotiations or agreements, written or oral. The Loan Documents shall not be modified except by written instrument executed by all parties. Any reference to the Loan Documents includes any amendments, renewals or extensions now or hereafter approved by Lender in writing.

 

  12.26 JOINT AND SEVERAL LIABILITY. The liability of all persons and entities obligated in any manner under this Agreement and any of the Loan Documents shall be joint and several.

 

  12.27 COUNTERPARTS. To facilitate execution, this document may be executed in as many counterparts as may be convenient or required. It shall not be necessary that the signature of, or on behalf of, each party, or that the signature of all persons required to bind any party, appear on each counterpart. All counterparts shall collectively constitute a single document. It shall not be necessary in making proof of this document to produce or account for more than a single counterpart containing the respective signatures of, or on behalf of, each of the parties hereto. Any signature page to any counterpart may be detached from such counterpart without impairing the legal effect of the signatures thereon and thereafter attached to another counterpart identical thereto except having attached to it additional signature pages.

The Plans and Specifications, as of the date hereof, are those which Borrower has heretofore, or will hereafter deliver to Lender. The Architectural Agreements include, but are not limited to, the architectural agreement or contract between Borrower and                 , dated                     , as amended.

This Assignment of Architectural Agreements and Plans and Specifications (“Assignment”) constitutes a present and absolute assignment to Lender as of the date hereof (the “Effective Date”); provided, however, Lender confers upon Borrower the right to enforce the terms of the Architectural Agreements and Borrower’s rights to the Plans and Specifications so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing under any of the Loan Documents. Upon the occurrence of a Default under any of the Loan Documents, Lender may, in its sole discretion, give notice to Architect of its intent to enforce the rights of Borrower under the Architectural Agreements and of its rights to the Plans and Specifications and may initiate or participate in any legal proceedings respecting the enforcement of said rights. Borrower acknowledges that by accepting this Assignment, Lender does not assume any of Borrower’s obligations under the Architectural Agreements or with respect to the Plans and Specifications.

Borrower represents and warrants to Lender, as of the Effective Date, that: (a) all Architectural Agreements entered into by Borrower are in full force and effect and are enforceable in accordance with their terms and no default, or event which would constitute a default after notice or the passage of time, or both, exists with respect to said Architectural Agreements; (b) all copies of the Architectural Agreements and Plans and Specifications delivered to Lender are complete and correct; and (c) Borrower has not assigned any of its rights under the Architectural Agreements or with respect to the Plans and Specifications.

Borrower agrees: (a) to pay and perform all obligations of Borrower under the Architectural Agreements; (b) to enforce the payment and performance of all obligations of any other person or entity under the Architectural Agreements; (c) not to modify the existing Architectural Agreements nor to enter into any future Architectural Agreements without Lender’s prior written approval except as otherwise may be permitted in the Loan Documents; and (d) not to further assign, for security or any other purposes, its rights under the Architectural Agreements or with respect to the Plans and Specifications without Lender’s prior written consent.

This Assignment is one of the Loan Documents and secures payment and performance by Borrower of all obligations of Borrower under the Loan Documents. This Assignment is supplemented by those provisions of the Building Loan Agreement (defined below) which apply to the Loan Documents and said provisions are incorporated herein by reference. This Assignment is part of and further defines the assignment of contract rights and other rights set forth in the “Security Agreement” provision (Article 4) of the Deed of Trust.

The term “Building Loan Agreement” as used herein shall mean the Building Loan Agreement dated July 21, 2010, between Borrower and Lender, as well as the same may be amended, restated or replaced from time to time. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning set forth in the Building Loan Agreement.

This Assignment shall be governed by the laws of the State of California, except to the extent that federal laws preempt the laws of the State of California, and Borrower consents to the jurisdiction of any federal or state court within the State of California having proper venue for the filing and maintenance of any action arising hereunder and agrees that the prevailing party in any such action shall be entitled, in addition to any other recovery, to reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs.


This Assignment shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the heirs, legal representatives, assigns, and successors-in-interest of Borrower and Lender; provided, however, this shall not be construed and is not intended to waive any restrictions on assignment, sale, transfer, mortgage, pledge, hypothecation or encumbrance by Borrower contained in any of the Loan Documents.

SUBORDINATION AGREEMENT; ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF LEASE ASSIGNMENT, ESTOPPEL,

ATTORNMENT AND NON-DISTURBANCE AGREEMENT

(Lease To Deed of Trust)

 

NOTICE: THIS SUBORDINATION AGREEMENT RESULTS IN YOUR SECURITY INTEREST IN THE PROPERTY BECOMING SUBJECT TO AND OF LOWER PRIORITY THAN THE LIEN OF SOME OTHER OR LATER SECURITY INSTRUMENT.

THIS SUBORDINATION AGREEMENT; ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF LEASE ASSIGNMENT, ESTOPPEL, ATTORNMENT AND NON-DISTURBANCE AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) is made                      by and between TPG-BROOKHOLLOW, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“Owner”),                      (“Lessee”) and WELLS FARGO BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (“Lender”).

R E C I T A L S

 

A. Pursuant to the terms and provisions of a lease dated                      (“Lease”), Owner, as “Lessor”, granted to Lessee a leasehold estate in and to a portion of the property described on Exhibit A attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference (which property, together with all improvements now or hereafter located on the property, is defined as the “Property”).

 

B. [Said Lease contains provisions and terms granting Lessee an option to purchase the Property (the “Option To Purchase”).]

 

C. Owner has executed a Deed of Trust with Absolute Assignment of Leases and Rents, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing (“Deed of Trust”) securing, among other things, a promissory note (“Note”) in the principal sum of Fifty-Five Million Dollars ($55,000,000), dated July 21, 2010, in favor of Lender, which Note is payable with interest and upon the terms and conditions described therein (“Loan”).

 

D. As a condition to making the Loan secured by the Deed of Trust, Lender requires that the Deed of Trust 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 the Option To Purchase] and that the Lessee specifically and unconditionally subordinate the Lease [and the Option To Purchase] to the lien of the Deed of Trust.

 

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


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

1. SUBORDINATION. Owner and Lessee hereby agree that:

 

1.1 Prior Lien. The Deed of Trust securing the Note in favor of Lender, and any modifications, renewals or extensions thereof (including, without limitation, any modifications, renewals or extensions with respect to any additional advances made subject to the Deed of Trust), shall unconditionally be and at all times remain a lien on the Property prior and superior to the Lease [and the Option To Purchase];

 

1.2 Subordination. Lender 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 [and the Option To Purchase] to the lien of the Deed of Trust and shall supersede and cancel, but only insofar as would affect the priority between the Deed of Trust and the Lease [and the Option To Purchase], 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 [and the Option To Purchase] 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. Lender, in making disbursements pursuant to the Note, the Deed of Trust or any loan agreements with respect to the Property, is under no obligation or duty to, nor has Lender represented that it will, see to the application of such proceeds by the person or persons to whom Lender 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 Deed of Trust 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 Lender 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. ASSIGNMENT. Lessee acknowledges and consents to the assignment of the Lease by Lessor in favor of Lender.

3. ESTOPPEL. Lessee acknowledges and represents that:

 

  3.1 Lease Effective. The Lease has been duly executed and delivered by Lessee and, subject to the terms and conditions thereof, the Lease is in full force and effect, the obligations of Lessee thereunder are valid and binding and there have been no modifications or additions to the Lease, written or oral;

 

  3.2 No Default. To the best of Lessee’s knowledge, as of the date hereof: (i) there exists no breach, default, or event or condition which, with the giving of notice or the passage of time or both, would constitute a breach or default under the Lease; and (ii) there are no existing claims, defenses or offsets against rental due or to become due under the Lease;

 

  3.3 Entire Agreement. The Lease constitutes the entire agreement between Lessor and Lessee with respect to the Property and Lessee claims no rights with respect to the Property other than as set forth in the Lease; and

 

  3.4 No Prepaid Rent. No deposits or prepayments of rent have been made in connection with the Lease, except as follows: (if none, state “None”)                             .

4. ADDITIONAL AGREEMENTS. Lessee covenants and agrees that, during all such times as Lender is the Beneficiary under the Deed of Trust:

 

  4.1 Modification, Termination and Cancellation. Lessee will not consent to any modification, amendment, termination or cancellation of the Lease (in whole or in part) without Lender’s prior written consent 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 Lender’s prior written consent;

 

  4.2

Notice of Default. Lessee will notify Lender in writing concurrently with any notice given to Lessor of any default by Lessor under the Lease, and Lessee agrees that Lender 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 Lender, if Lender 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 Lender within such fifteen (15) day period, the commencement of action by Lender within such fifteen (15) day period to remedy the same shall be deemed sufficient so long as Lender pursues such cure with diligence;

 

  4.3 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

 

  4.4 Assignment of Rents. Upon receipt by Lessee of written notice from Lender that Lender has elected to terminate the license granted to Lessor to collect rents, as provided in the Deed of Trust, and directing the payment of rents by Lessee to Lender, 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 Deed of Trust.

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

 

  5.1 Payment of Rent. Lessee shall pay to Lender 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;

 

  5.2 Continuation of Performance. Lessee shall be bound to Lender in accordance with all of the provisions of the Lease for the balance of the term thereof, and Lessee hereby attorns to Lender 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;

 

  5.3 No Offset. Lender 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 Lender; and

 

  5.4 Subsequent Transfer. If Lender, 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 Lender, all of such obligations shall terminate as to Lender.

6. NON-DISTURBANCE. In the event of a foreclosure under the Deed of Trust, so long as there shall then exist no breach, default, or event of default on the part of Lessee under the Lease, Lender 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 Lender 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 Lender agree that the following provisions of the Lease (if any) shall not be binding on Lender: 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 Deed of Trust.

7. MISCELLANEOUS.

 

  7.1 Heirs, Successors, Assigns and Transferees. The covenants herein shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, the heirs, successors and assigns of the parties hereto; and


  7.2 Notices. All notices or other communications required or permitted to be given pursuant to the provisions hereof shall be deemed served upon delivery or, if mailed, upon the first to occur of receipt or the expiration of three (3) days after deposit in United States Postal Service, certified mail, postage prepaid and addressed to the address of Lessee or Lender appearing below:

EXHIBIT I – FORM OF COMPLETION GUARANTY

Exhibit I to BUILDING LOAN AGREEMENT between TPG-Brookhollow, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, as “Borrower”, and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as “Lender”, dated as of July 21, 2010. See attached.


COMPLETION GUARANTY

THIS COMPLETION GUARANTY (“Guaranty”) is made as of             , 201  , by TPG/CALSTRS, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Guarantor”), in favor of WELLS FARGO BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (“Lender”).

R E C I T A L S

 

A. Pursuant to the terms of a Building Loan Agreement between TPG-Brookhollow, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“Borrower”), and Lender dated as of July 21, 2010, (“Loan Agreement”), Lender has agreed to loan to Borrower the principal sum of up to Fifty-Five Million Dollars ($55,000,000) (“Loan”) for the purposes specified in the Loan Agreement, which purposes include the construction of certain improvements in the B-1 Building defined in the Loan Agreement as the Renovation Improvements (the “Improvements”) described in plans and specifications required by the Loan Agreement (“Plans and Specifications”) upon real property described in the Loan Agreement (“Property”).

 

B. The Loan Agreement provides that the Loan shall be evidenced by the Promissory Note Secured by Deed of Trust of even date herewith (the “Note”), executed by Borrower payable to the order of Lender, in the principal amount of $55,000,000 and shall be secured by the Deed of Trust with Absolute Assignment of Leases and Rents, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing, dated of even date herewith, (the “Deed of Trust”), encumbering the Property and Improvements, and by other security instruments, if any, specified in the Loan Agreement. The term “Loan Documents” for purposes hereof shall mean the Loan Agreement, the Deed of Trust, the Note and those other documents described in the Loan Agreement as Loan Documents. This Guaranty is not one of the Loan Documents. All capitalized terms used in this Guaranty shall, unless otherwise defined herein, have the meanings given to them in the Loan Agreement.

THEREFORE, to induce Lender to enter into the Loan Agreement and to make the Loan, and in consideration thereof, Guarantor unconditionally guarantees and agrees as follows:

 

1. GUARANTY. Guarantor hereby guarantees the performance by Borrower of all the terms and provisions of the Loan Agreement pertaining to Borrower’s obligations with respect to the construction of the Improvements. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Guarantor guarantees that: (a) the Improvements shall be constructed and completed in accordance with the Plans and Specifications and the other provisions of the Loan Documents, without substantial deviation therefrom unless permitted under the Loan Documents or approved by Lender in writing; (b) the Improvements shall be constructed and completed free and clear of any mechanic’s liens, materialman’s liens and equitable liens, subject to Borrower’s rights to contest such liens in accordance with the Loan Documents; (c) all costs of constructing the Improvements shall be paid when due; and (d) the Loan proceeds shall remain available for disbursement free and clear of any stop notices, subject to Borrower’s rights to contest stop notices in accordance with the Loan Documents.

 

2. LIEN FREE COMPLETION. Completion of the Improvements free and clear of liens shall be deemed to have occurred upon: (a) (i) Lender’s receipt of a written statement or certificate executed by the architect designated or shown on the Plans and Specifications certifying, without qualification or exception, that the Improvements are completed, and (ii) Lender’s receipt of all required occupancy permit(s) for all of the Improvements issued by the local government agency having jurisdiction and authority to issue same, and (iii) the expiration of the statutory period(s) within which valid mechanic’s liens, materialman’s liens and/or stop notices may be recorded and/or served by reason of the construction of the Improvements, or, alternatively, Lender’s receipt of valid, unconditional releases thereof from all persons entitled to record said liens or serve said stop notices; or (b) Lender’s receipt of such other evidence of lien free completion as Lender deems satisfactory in its reasonable discretion.

 

3. OBLIGATIONS OF GUARANTOR UPON DEFAULT BY BORROWER. If the Improvements are not completed in the manner required by the Loan Agreement, or if construction of the Improvements should cease or be halted prior to completion and such cessation or halt constitutes a Default (as defined in the Loan Agreement), Guarantor shall, promptly upon demand of Lender: (a) diligently proceed to complete construction of the Improvements at Guarantor’s sole cost and expense; (b) fully pay and discharge all claims for labor performed and material and services furnished in connection with the construction of the Improvements; (c) release and discharge all claims of stop notices, mechanic’s liens, materialman’s liens and equitable liens that may arise in connection with the construction of the Improvements; and (d) pay to Lender the amount of any loss or damage incurred by Lender as a result of any delay in the completion of construction of the Improvements beyond the time specified in the Loan Agreement for such completion. Without in any way limiting the above obligations of Guarantor, Lender shall make the undisbursed Loan funds available to Guarantor (pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Loan Documents) for the purposes of completing the Improvements and fulfilling Guarantor’s other obligations under this Guaranty; provided, however, that the obligation of Lender to make such undisbursed Loan funds available to Guarantor is expressly conditioned upon: (x) there being no continuing default by Guarantor under this Guaranty; and (y) Borrower (and/or Guarantor) having provided to Lender all Borrower’s Funds required by the terms and conditions of the Loan Agreement.


4. REMEDIES. If Guarantor fails to promptly perform its obligations under this Guaranty, Lender shall have the following remedies:

 

  4.1 At Lender’s option, and without any obligation to do so, to proceed to perform on behalf of Guarantor any or all of Guarantor’s obligations hereunder and Guarantor shall, upon demand and whether or not construction is actually completed by Lender, pay to Lender all sums expended by Lender in performing Guarantor’s obligations hereunder together with interest thereon at the highest rate specified in the Note; and

 

  4.2 From time to time and without first requiring performance by Borrower or exhausting any or all security for the Loan, to bring any action at law or in equity or both to compel Guarantor to perform its obligations hereunder, and to collect in any such action compensation for all loss, cost, damage, injury and expense sustained or incurred by Lender as a direct or indirect consequence of the failure of Guarantor to perform its obligations together with interest thereon at the rate of interest applicable to the principal balance of the Note.

 

5. RIGHTS OF LENDER. Guarantor authorizes Lender, without giving notice to Guarantor or obtaining Guarantor’s consent and without affecting the liability of Guarantor, from time to time to: (a) approve modifications to the Plans and Specifications so long as such modifications do not materially increase the cost of constructing the Improvements nor materially increase the time necessary to complete the Improvements; (b) change the terms or conditions of disbursement of the Loan so long as such changes do not materially interfere with Borrower’s ability to construct the Improvements as and when required under the Loan Agreement; (c) otherwise modify the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, making changes in the terms of repayment of the Loan or modifying, extending or renewing payment dates; releasing or subordinating security in whole or in part; changing the interest rate; or advancing additional funds in its discretion for purposes related to the purposes specified in the Loan Agreement; or (d) assign this Guaranty in whole or in part to any subsequent holder of the Loan.

 

6. GUARANTOR’S WAIVERS. Guarantor waives: (a) any defense based upon any legal disability or other defense of Borrower, any other guarantor or other person, or by reason of the cessation or limitation of the liability of Borrower from any cause other than full payment and performance of those obligations of Borrower which are guaranteed hereunder; (b) any defense based upon any lack of authority of the officers, directors, partners or agents acting or purporting to act on behalf of Borrower or any principal of Borrower or any defect in the formation of Borrower or any principal of Borrower; (c) any defense based upon the application by Borrower of the proceeds of the Loan for purposes other than the purposes represented by Borrower to Lender or intended or understood by Lender or Guarantor; (d) any and all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies by Lender, even though that election of remedies, such as a nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to security for a guaranteed obligation, has destroyed Guarantor’s rights of subrogation and reimbursement against the principal by the operation of Section 580d of the California Code of Civil Procedure or otherwise; (e) any defense based upon Lender’s failure to disclose to Guarantor any information concerning Borrower’s financial condition or any other circumstances bearing on Borrower’s ability to pay and perform its obligations under the Note or any of the other Loan Documents; (f) 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 more burdensome than that of a principal; (g) any defense based upon Lender’s 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; (h) any defense based upon any borrowing or any grant of a security interest under Section 364 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code; (i) any right of subrogation, any right to enforce any remedy which Lender may have against Borrower and any right to participate in, or benefit from, any security for the Note or the other Loan Documents now or hereafter held by Lender; (j) presentment, demand, protest and notice of any kind; and (k) the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting the liability of Guarantor hereunder or the enforcement hereof. Guarantor further waives any and all rights and defenses that Guarantor may have because Borrower’s debt is secured by real property; this means, among other things, that: (1) Lender may collect from Guarantor without first foreclosing on any real or personal property collateral pledged by Borrower; (2) if Lender forecloses on any real property collateral pledged by Borrower, then (A) the amount of the debt may be reduced only by the price for which that collateral is sold at the foreclosure sale, even if the collateral is worth more than the sale price, and (B) Lender may collect from Guarantor even if Lender, by foreclosing on the real property collateral, has destroyed any right Guarantor may have to collect from Borrower. The foregoing sentence is an unconditional and irrevocable waiver of any rights and defenses Guarantor may have because Borrower’s debt is secured by real property. These rights and defenses being waived by Guarantor include, but are not limited to, any rights or defenses based upon Section 580a, 580b, 580d or 726 of the California Code of Civil Procedure. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing or any other provision hereof, Guarantor


 

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 Guarantor under California Civil Code Sections 2787 to 2855, inclusive, 2899 and 3433, or under California Code of Civil Procedure Sections 580a, 580b, 580d and 726, or any of such sections. Finally, Guarantor agrees that the performance of any act or any payment which tolls any statute of limitations applicable to the Loan Documents shall similarly operate to toll the statute of limitations applicable to Guarantor’s liability hereunder.

 

7. GUARANTOR’S WARRANTIES. Guarantor warrants and acknowledges that: (a) Lender would not make the Loan but for this Guaranty; (b) Guarantor has reviewed all of the terms and provisions of the Loan Agreement, Plans and Specifications and the other Loan Documents; (c) there are no conditions precedent to the effectiveness of this Guaranty; (d) Guarantor has established adequate means of obtaining from sources other than Lender, on a continuing basis, financial and other information pertaining to Borrower’s financial condition, the Property, the progress of construction of the Improvements, and the status of Borrower’s performance of its obligations under the Loan Documents, and Lender has made no representation to Guarantor as to any such matters; (e) the most recent financial statements of Guarantor previously delivered to Lender are true and correct in all respects, have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied (or other principles acceptable to Lender) and fairly present the financial condition of Guarantor as of the respective dates thereof, and no material adverse change has occurred in the financial condition of Guarantor since the respective dates thereof; and (f) Guarantor has not and will not, without the prior written consent of Lender, sell, lease, assign, encumber, hypothecate, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of Guarantor’s assets, or any interest therein, other than in the ordinary course of Guarantor’s business. Notwithstanding the foregoing, or anything to the contrary, the calculation of the liabilities of Guarantor shall not include any fair value adjustments to the carrying value of liabilities to record such liabilities at fair value pursuant to electing the fair value option election under FASB ASC 825-10-25 (formerly known as FAS 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities) or other FASB standards allowing entities to elect fair value option for financial liabilities. Therefore, the amount of liabilities shall be the historical cost basis, which generally is the contractual amount owed adjusted for amortization or accretion of any premium or discount.

 

8. SUBORDINATION. Guarantor subordinates all present and future indebtedness owing by Borrower to Guarantor to the obligations at any time owing by Borrower to Lender under the Note and the other Loan Documents. Guarantor agrees to make no claim for such indebtedness until all obligations of Borrower under the Note and the other Loan Documents have been fully discharged. Guarantor agrees that it will not take any action or initiate any proceedings, judicial or otherwise, to enforce Guarantor’s rights or remedies with respect to any such indebtedness, including without limitation any action to enforce remedies with respect to any defaults under such indebtedness or to any collateral securing such indebtedness or to obtain any judgment or prejudgment remedy against Borrower or any such collateral. Guarantor also agrees that it will not commence or join with any other creditor or creditors of Borrower in commencing any bankruptcy, reorganization or insolvency proceedings against Borrower. Guarantor further agrees not to assign all or any part of such indebtedness unless Lender is given prior notice and such assignment is expressly made subject to the terms of this Guaranty. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Guarantor may receive cash distributions from Borrower to the extent Borrower is entitled to receive cash from the Property under the Loan Agreement, but in no event in contravention or violation of Borrower’s operating agreement or such as would cause a Default.

 

9. BANKRUPTCY OF BORROWER. In any bankruptcy or other proceeding in which the filing of claims is required by law, Guarantor shall file all claims which Guarantor may have against Borrower relating to any indebtedness of Borrower to Guarantor and shall assign to Lender all rights of Guarantor thereunder. If Guarantor does not file any such claim, Lender, as attorney-in-fact for Guarantor, is hereby authorized to do so in the name of Guarantor or, in Lender’s discretion, to assign the claim to a nominee and to cause proof of claim to be filed in the name of Lender’s nominee. The foregoing power of attorney is coupled with an interest and cannot be revoked. Lender or its nominee shall have the right, in its reasonable discretion, to accept or reject any plan proposed in such proceeding and to take any other action which a party filing a claim is entitled to do. In all such cases, whether in administration, bankruptcy or otherwise, the person or persons authorized to pay such claim shall pay to Lender the amount payable on such claim and, to the full extent necessary for that purpose, Guarantor hereby assigns to Lender all of Guarantor’s rights to any such payments or distributions; provided, however, Guarantor’s obligations hereunder shall not be satisfied except to the extent that Lender receives cash by reason of any such payment or distribution. If Lender receives anything hereunder other than cash, the same shall be held as collateral for amounts due under this Guaranty. If all or any portion of the obligations guaranteed hereunder are paid or performed, the obligations of Guarantor 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 Lender as a preference, fraudulent transfer or otherwise under the Bankruptcy Code or other similar laws, irrespective of (a) any notice of revocation given by Guarantor prior to such avoidance or recovery, or (b) full payment and performance of all of the indebtedness and obligations evidenced and secured by the Loan Documents.


10. LOAN SALES AND PARTICIPATIONS; DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION. Guarantor agrees that, subject to any restrictions set forth in the Loan Agreement, Lender may elect, at any time, to sell, assign, or grant participations in all or any portion of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents and this Guaranty, and that any such sale, assignment or participation may be to one or more financial institutions, private investors, and/or other entities, at Lender’s sole discretion. Guarantor further agrees that Lender may disseminate to any such actual or potential purchaser(s), assignee(s) or participant(s) all documents and information (including, without limitation, all financial information) which has been or is hereafter provided to or known to Lender with respect to: (a) the Property and Improvements and their operation; (b) any party connected with the Loan (including, without limitation, the Guarantor, the Borrower, any partner, joint venturer or member of Borrower, any constituent partner, joint venturer or member of Borrower, any other guarantor and any non-borrower trustor); and/or (c) any lending relationship other than the Loan which Lender may have with any party connected with the Loan. In the event of any such sale, assignment or participation, Lender and the parties to such transaction shall share in the rights and obligations of Lender as set forth in the Loan Documents only as and to the extent they agree among themselves. In connection with any such sale, assignment or participation, Guarantor further agrees that the Guaranty shall be sufficient evidence of the obligations of Guarantor to each purchaser, assignee, or participant, and upon written request by Lender, Guarantor shall consent to such amendments or modifications to the Loan Documents as may be reasonably required in order to evidence any such sale, assignment, or participation.

Anything in this Guaranty to the contrary notwithstanding, and without the need to comply with any of the formal or procedural requirements of this Guaranty, including this Section, any lender may at any time and from time to time pledge and assign all or any portion of its rights under all or any of the Loan Documents to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from its obligations thereunder.

 

11. ADDITIONAL, INDEPENDENT AND UNSECURED OBLIGATIONS. The obligations of Guarantor hereunder shall be in addition to and shall not limit or in any way affect the obligations of Guarantor under any other existing or future guaranties unless said other guaranties are expressly modified or revoked in writing. This Guaranty is independent of the obligations of Borrower under the Note, the Deed of Trust and the other Loan Documents. Lender may bring a separate action to enforce the provisions hereof against Guarantor without taking action against Borrower or any other party or joining Borrower or any other party as a party to such action. Except as otherwise provided in this Guaranty, this Guaranty is not secured and shall not be deemed to be secured by any security instrument unless such security instrument expressly recites that it secures this Guaranty.

 

12. ATTORNEYS’ FEES; ENFORCEMENT. If any attorney is engaged by Lender to enforce or defend any provision of this Guaranty, or any of the other Loan Documents relating to the construction of the Improvements, or as a consequence of any Default, breach or failure of condition under the Loan Documents relating to the construction of the Improvements, with or without the filing of any legal action or proceeding, Guarantor shall pay to Lender, immediately upon demand all attorneys’ fees and costs reasonably incurred by Lender in connection therewith, together with interest thereon from the date of such demand until paid at the rate of interest applicable to the principal balance of the Note as specified therein.

 

13. RULES OF CONSTRUCTION. The word “Borrower” as used herein shall include both the named Borrower and any other person at any time assuming or otherwise becoming primarily liable for all or any part of the obligations of the named Borrower under the Note and the other Loan Documents. The term “person” as used herein shall include any individual, company, trust or other legal entity of any kind whatsoever. If this Guaranty is executed by more than one person, the term “Guarantor” shall include all such persons. When the context and construction so require, all words used in the singular herein shall be deemed to have been used in the plural and vice versa. All headings appearing in this Guaranty are for convenience only and shall be disregarded in construing this Guaranty.

 

14. CREDIT REPORTS. Each legal entity and individual obligated on this Guaranty hereby authorizes Lender to order and obtain, from a credit reporting agency of Lender’s choice, a third party credit report on such legal entity and individual.

 

15. GOVERNING LAW. This Guaranty shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of California, except to the extent preempted by federal laws. Guarantor and all persons and entities in any manner obligated to Lender under this Guaranty consent to the jurisdiction of any federal or state court within the State of California having proper venue and also consent to service of process by any means authorized by California or federal law.

 

16. MISCELLANEOUS. The provisions of this Guaranty will bind and benefit the heirs, executors, administrators, legal representatives, nominees, successors and assigns of Guarantor and Lender. The liability of all persons and entities who are in any manner obligated hereunder shall be joint and several. If any provision of this Guaranty shall be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that portion shall be deemed severed from this Guaranty and the remaining parts shall remain in full force as though the invalid, illegal or unenforceable portion had never been part of this Guaranty.


17. ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS. Such additional terms, covenants and conditions as may be set forth on any exhibit executed by Guarantor and attached hereto which recites that it is an exhibit to this Guaranty are incorporated herein by this reference.

 

18. ENFORCEABILITY. Guarantor hereby acknowledges that: (a) the obligations undertaken by Guarantor in this Guaranty are complex in nature, and (b) numerous possible defenses to the enforceability of these obligations may presently exist and/or may arise hereafter, and (c) as part of Lender’s consideration for entering into this transaction, Lender has specifically bargained for the waiver and relinquishment by Guarantor of all such defenses, and (d) Guarantor 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, Guarantor does hereby represent and confirm to Lender that Guarantor is fully informed regarding, and that Guarantor does thoroughly understand: (i) the nature of all such possible defenses, and (ii) the circumstances under which such defenses may arise, and (iii) the benefits which such defenses might confer upon Guarantor, and (iv) the legal consequences to Guarantor of waiving such defenses. Guarantor acknowledges that Guarantor makes this Guaranty with the intent that this Guaranty and all of the informed waivers herein shall each and all be fully enforceable by Lender, and that Lender is induced to enter into this transaction in material reliance upon the presumed full enforceability thereof.

 

19. SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION. IN THE EVENT OF ANY CONTROVERSY OR CLAIM UNDER THIS GUARANTY, GUARANTOR HEREBY (A) SUBMITS TO THE JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA AND THE FEDERAL COURTS OF THE UNITED STATES SITTING IN THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA FOR THE PURPOSE OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS GUARANTY OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR THE COLLATERAL, (B) AGREES THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE HEARD AND DETERMINED IN SUCH COURTS, (C) IRREVOCABLY WAIVES (TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW) ANY OBJECTION WHICH IT NOW OR HEREAFTER MAY HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM; AND (D) AGREES THAT A FINAL JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN SUCH OTHER JURISDICTIONS BY SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW.
