NOTHING HEREIN SHALL TRANSFER TO TRANSFEREE, NOR SHALL TRANSFEREE ACCEPT OR ASSUME, ANY SUCCESSOR DEVELOPER OBLIGATION, LIABILITY OR STATUS.
(b) BORROWER WARRANTS AND REPRESENTS TO LENDER THAT BORROWER HAS NOT SOLD, ASSIGNED, TRANSFERRED, CONVEYED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF ANY CLAIMS WHICH ARE THE SUBJECT OF THIS SECTION. THE INCLUSION OF THIS PROVISION SHALL NOT BE DEEMED TO BE AN ADMISSION BY LENDER THAT ANY SUCH CLAIMS EXIST.

12. Indemnification. Borrower shall, at Borrower’s own expense, and does hereby agree to, protect, indemnify, reimburse, defend and hold harmless Lender and Transferee (if other than Lender) and their respective directors, officers, agents, employees, attorneys, successors and assigns from and against any and all liabilities (including strict liability), losses, suits, proceedings, settlements, judgments, orders, penalties, fines, liens, assessments, claims, demands, damages, injuries, obligations, costs, disbursements, expenses or fees, of any kind or nature (including attorneys’ fees and expenses paid or incurred in connection therewith) arising out of or by reason of the following: an incorrect legal description of the Property; any failure or breach of any of Borrower’s or Guarantor’s representations, warranties and covenants contained in this Agreement and all documents executed or delivered in connection therewith; claims for brokerage commissions or leasing commissions asserted by any party claiming by, through or under Borrower, Guarantor or Affiliates of any of them; claims asserted against the Property or against Lender or the Transferee (if other than Lender) in connection with the Property which arose prior to the date hereof including, without limitation, any management fees or fees for other services provided in connection with the Property; any acts or omissions of Borrower or Guarantor or any other Person (during the time the Property was owned by Borrower) at, on or about the Property regarding the contamination of air, soil, surface waters or ground waters over, on or under Property; the presence, whether past or present, of any Hazardous Materials (as such term is defined in the Consolidation Agreement) on, in or under the Property; any past, present or future events, conditions, circumstances, activities, practices, incidents, actions or plans involving the manufacture, processing, distribution, use, transport, handling, treatment, storage, disposal, cleanup, emission, discharge, seepage, spillage, leakage, release or threatened release of any Hazardous Material on, in, under or from the Property, in connection with Borrower’s operations on the Property, or otherwise; all of the foregoing regardless of whether within the control of Lender, so long as any act, omission or occurrence that took place prior to the delivery of the deed in the Foreclosure Action brought by Lender and the complete dispossession of Borrower from the Property (the “Final Transfer Date”). Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, no liability shall arise from any act, omission or occurrence concerning Hazardous Material that occurs from and after the Final Transfer Date. This indemnification shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the expiration or other termination of this Agreement.
13. Default. Any default by Borrower in the performance of its obligations herein contained or contained in the Note Modification Agreement shall constitute a default pursuant to Section 13.01(y) of the Consolidation Agreement and, subject to the provisions thereof, shall entitle Lender to exercise all of its rights and remedies set forth in the Loan Documents. An Event of Default shall exist if any representation or warranty made by Borrower or Guarantor in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, or in any report, certificate, financial statement or other instrument, agreement or document furnished to Lender shall not have been true, accurate and complete as of the date the representation or warranty was made and has a Material Adverse Effect; provided, however, if the failure of any such representation or warranty to be true, accurate and complete is susceptible to cure, then Borrower shall have thirty (30) days after notice from Lender to cure the failure of such representation or warranty to be true, accurate and complete. The failure of Borrower to so cure the failure of such representation or warranty to be true, accurate and complete within said thirty(30) day period shall constitute an Uncured Event of Default.

14. Ratification and Confirmation.
(a) Borrower and Lender hereby expressly ratify and confirm (i) each of the Loan Documents, and (ii) all rights, assignments, liens, pledges, security interests, and obligations thereunder, including, without limitation, the assignments, liens, pledges and security interests of the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision hereof to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement is intended to be, and shall not be deemed or construed to be, a novation of the Note or the Loan Documents.
(b) This Agreement constitutes a Loan Document. The provisions of Section 18.32 of the Consolidation Agreement are incorporated by reference herein with the same effect as if they were set forth herein in their entirety, but shall not be applicable to the obligations of Guarantor hereunder except to the extent set forth in Section 7(e) above.
(c) Borrower expressly acknowledges and agrees that the Loan remains outstanding and that Borrower continues to be fully bound by all of the terms and conditions of the Loan Documents as set forth herein and therein. Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to be or effect (a) any waiver or release of any of the terms and conditions of the Note or any of the other Loan Documents or of any existing or future defaults or events of default thereunder, (b) an extension of time for the payment or performance of any obligation to be performed on the part of Borrower or any other obligor thereunder, or (c) any waiver or release of Lender’s rights to exercise any and all remedies with respect thereto, or the effectiveness of any notices of intention to accelerate, notices of acceleration, or acceleration given subsequent to the execution of the Modification Agreements.
15. Further Assurances. Borrower agrees to execute any instruments which, in the opinion of Lender, are necessary or desirable to perfect such mortgages, liens, security interests, assignments and encumbrances.
16. Lift of Bankruptcy Stay. In the event of the filing of any voluntary or involuntary petition under the Bankruptcy Code (11 U.S.C. § 101, et seq.) by or against Borrower, in consideration for Lender’s agreements hereunder, neither Borrower nor any of its Affiliates, including, without limitation, Guarantor shall assert, or request any other party to assert, that the automatic stay under 11 U.S.C. § 362 shall operate or be interpreted to stay, interdict, condition, reduce, prohibit, inhibit, or interfere with the ability of Lender to enforce any rights it has by virtue of this Agreement, or any other rights that Lender has, whether now or hereafter acquired, against Borrower or the Property. Further, in consideration for Lender’s agreements hereunder, neither Borrower nor any of its Affiliates, including, without limitation, Guarantor shall seek a supplemental stay or any other relief, whether injunctive or otherwise, pursuant to 11 U.S.C. § 105 or any other provision of the Bankruptcy Code to stay, interdict, condition, reduce, prohibit, inhibit, or interfere with the ability of Lender to enforce any rights it has by virtue of this Agreement or otherwise against Borrower or the Property. The waivers contained in this paragraph are knowingly and voluntarily made, now and forever, and are a material inducement to Lender’s willingness to enter into this Agreement and Borrower and Guarantor acknowledge and agree that no ground exists for equitable relief which would bar, delay or impede the exercise by Lender of Lender’s rights and remedies against Borrower or the Property. In the

 

14


 

event any property, any portion thereof or any interest therein (including, without limitation, the Property) of Borrower becomes property of any bankruptcy estate or subject to any state or federal insolvency proceeding, then, in consideration for Lender’s agreements hereunder, Lender shall immediately become entitled, in addition to all other relief to which Lender may be entitled, including, without limitation, under this Agreement or the Loan Documents, to obtain an order from the Bankruptcy Court or other court of competent jurisdiction granting immediate relief from the automatic stay pursuant to 11 U.S.C. § 362 permitting Lender to pursue its rights and remedies against Borrower or the Property as provided under this Agreement, the Loan Documents, and all other rights and remedies of Lender at law, in equity, or otherwise. In connection with such an order, in consideration for Lender’s agreements hereunder, neither Borrower nor any of its Affiliates, including, without limitation, Guarantor, shall contend or allege, in any pleading, petition filed in any court proceeding, or otherwise, that Lender does not have sufficient grounds for relief from the automatic stay. Any bankruptcy petition or other action taken by Borrower or any of its Affiliates, including, without limitation, Guarantor (or any person claiming through such Person) to stay, condition, or inhibit Lender from exercising its remedies are hereby admitted by Borrower to be in bad faith, and Borrower further admits that Lender would have just cause for relief from the automatic stay in order to take such actions authorized under law, equity, or otherwise.
17. Conditions Precedent.
(a) In addition to those conditions described elsewhere in this Agreement, the following shall be conditions precedent to the effectiveness of this Agreement:
(i) Prior to or simultaneously with the execution of this Agreement, Borrower shall have executed, or caused to be executed, and delivered to Lender all documents required by Lender in connection with the modification of the Loan contemplated hereby, including without limitation, the Note Modification Agreement.
(ii) Prior to or simultaneously with the execution hereof, Borrower shall furnish, or cause to be furnished, to Lender, at the Borrower’s expense, a title policy (the “Modification Title Policy”), which Modification Title Policy must show that the lien of the Consolidation Agreement is unimpaired, notwithstanding this Agreement or the Note Modification Agreement and showing only such exceptions accepted by Original Lender or Lender and otherwise be satisfactory to Lender and Lender’s counsel.
(iii) Prior to or simultaneously with the execution of this Agreement, Lender shall have received from legal counsel retained by Borrower and acceptable to Lender an opinion of counsel (the “Legal Opinion”) covering the following matters: (A) the due authorization of the Modification Agreements and any other documents executed in connection herewith in accordance with their respective terms (collectively, the “Modification Transaction Agreements”); (B) the validity and enforceability of the Modification Transaction Agreements (subject to such qualifications as shall be acceptable to Lender);

 

15


 

(C) compliance with applicable usury laws of the State of New York; (D) the due organization and valid legal existence of Borrower, any entity owning at least a 20% equity interest in the Borrower and the Guarantor; (E) the execution and delivery of the Modification Transaction Agreements will not impair the security for the Loan (including, but not limited to, the continued validity and enforceability of any guaranty given as security for the Loan); and (F) such other matters incident to the transaction contemplated herein as Lender may reasonably request.
(b) If for any reason any of the foregoing conditions precedent (or any other condition precedent set forth in this Agreement) fails to occur within the time period specified, all provisions of this Agreement, except for the release of the Lender Release Parties by the Borrower Release Parties contained in Section 11 of this Agreement, shall terminate and be of no further force or effect and the Loan shall remain payable as if this Agreement had never been executed. The foregoing conditions precedent are for the sole benefit of Lender and may be waived only by Lender by written agreement executed by Lender.
18. Usury Savings Clause. Section 18.16 of the Consolidation Agreement is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety as if fully restated herein.
19. OFAC. In consideration of Lender’s agreements set forth herein, Borrower represents and warrants to Lender that neither Borrower nor to Borrower’s knowledge, any person owning an interest in Borrower (except that knowledge shall not require any investigation into ownership of publicly traded stock or other publicly traded securities), is a country, territory, individual or entity named on a list maintained by the U.S. Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”), or is a Specially Designated National or Blocked Person under the programs administered by OFAC. If the foregoing representation and warranty shall at any time be or become untrue or incorrect during the term of the Loan, an Event of Default shall be deemed to have occurred.
20. No Waiver. Except as expressly provided herein, the execution of this Agreement by Lender does not and shall not constitute a waiver of any rights or remedies to which Lender is entitled pursuant to the Loan Documents, nor shall the same constitute a waiver of any Event of Default which may have heretofore occurred or which may hereafter occur with respect to the Loan Documents. Lender reserves the right to declare any existing default or Event of Default which subsequently comes to the attention of Lender whether pertaining to a period prior to the Effective Date or on or after the Effective Date.
21. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts with the same effect as if all parties hereto had signed the same document. All such counterparts shall be construed together and shall constitute one instrument, but in making proof hereof it shall only be necessary to produce one such counterpart.

 

16


 

22. Governing Law.

(b) Any legal suit, action or proceeding against Lender or Borrower arising out of or relating to this Agreement may at Lender’s option be instituted in any Federal or State Court in the City of New York, County of New York, and Borrower knowingly and voluntarily waives any objections which it may now or hereafter have based on venue and/or forum non conveniens of any such suit, action or proceeding, and Borrower hereby irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of any such court in any suit, action or proceeding. Borrower does hereby designate and appoint CT Corporation System, as its authorized agent to accept and acknowledge on its behalf service of any and all process which may be served in any such suit, action or proceeding in any Federal or State Court in New York, New York, and agrees that service of process upon said agent at said address and written notice of said service mailed or delivered to Borrower in the manner provided herein shall be deemed in every respect effective service of process upon Borrower, in any such suit, action or proceeding in the State of New York.

26. Successors and Assigns. The terms and conditions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto, their successors and permitted assigns.
27. Cumulative Rights. The rights of Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be separate, distinct and cumulative and none shall be given effect to the exclusion of the others. No act of Lender shall be construed as an election to proceed under any one provision herein or under any of the other Loan Document to the exclusion of any other provision herein or in any other Loan Document. Lender shall not be limited to the rights and remedies herein stated but shall be entitled to any and all rights and remedies afforded Lender herein, in the other Loan Documents and as otherwise now or hereafter afforded by law.
28. Surviving Obligations. Any and all of the obligations imposed upon Borrower and Guarantor in this Agreement that are to occur after the entry of the Foreclosure Order shall survive entry of the Final Order, shall not be deemed in any way to merge into the Final Order and shall survive the expiration or other termination of this Agreement.
29. Final Agreement. This Agreement represents the final agreement among the parties and may not be contradicted by the parties. There are no unwritten oral agreements among the parties.
30. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT AGREES THAT ANY SUIT, ACTION, OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT OR INSTITUTED BY ANY PARTY HERETO OR ANY SUCCESSOR OR ASSIGN OF ANY PARTY ON OR WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OF THE OTHER DOCUMENTS EXECUTED IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR WHICH IN ANY WAY RELATES DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY TO THE OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, THE OTHER DOCUMENTS EXECUTED IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY EVENT, TRANSACTION OR OCCURRENCE ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED THEREWITH, OR THE DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES WITH RESPECT THERETO, SHALL BE TRIED ONLY BY A COURT AND NOT A JURY. EACH PARTY HEREBY EXPRESSLY KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVES, NOW AND FOREVER, ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION, OR PROCEEDING. THE BORROWER PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT THIS PROVISION IS A SPECIFIC AND MATERIAL ASPECT OF THIS AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES HERETO AND THAT LENDER WOULD NOT AGREE TO THE AGREEMENTS SET FORTH HEREIN IF THIS WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL PROVISION WERE NOT A PART OF THIS AGREEMENT.

 

18


 

31. Relationship of Parties.

The Borrower Parties acknowledge and agree that Lender has at all times acted and shall at all times continue to be acting only as a lender to Borrower within the normal and usual scope of activities of a lender.
32. Section 13 of the New York Lien Law. Pursuant to Section 13 of the Lien Law of the State of New York, Borrower shall receive the advances, if any, secured hereby and shall hold the right to receive such advances, if any, as a trust fund and shall apply such advances first to the payment of the cost of any such improvement on the Real Estate before using any part of the total of the same for any other purpose.
33. Severability. If any clause or provision of this Agreement is determined to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable under any present or future law by the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, the remainder of this Agreement will not be affected thereby. It is the intention of the parties that if any such provision is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, there will be added in lieu thereof a provision as similar in terms to such provision as is possible and be legal, valid and enforceable.
34. Recitals. The “Recitals” set forth at the beginning of this Agreement are hereby acknowledged to be true and correct by the parties and are incorporated into this Agreement.
35. Conflicts. Except as expressly modified pursuant to this Agreement, all of the terms, covenants and provisions of the Loan Documents shall continue in full force and effect.

36. Further Amendment. Except as modified by this Agreement, the Consolidation Agreement and each of the covenants, terms and conditions set forth therein are and shall remain in full force and effect and are hereby ratified, confirmed and approved. It is expressly understood and agreed that the Consolidation Agreement is only amended as set forth herein and any further amendment of the Consolidation Agreement, if the parties hereafter shall agree to same, shall be by written agreement between the parties hereto and any such agreement shall not be binding upon Lender unless same is fully executed and unconditionally delivered by Lender and Borrower.
37. Time is of the Essence. Time is of the essence with respect to the payment, performance and observance of each and every covenant, agreement, condition and obligation of Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, subject to applicable notice and cure periods.
