| (d) | This Instrument constitutes a financing statement with respect to any part of the Mortgaged Property that is or may become a Fixture, if permitted by applicable law. |
| 3. | ASSIGNMENT OF RENTS; APPOINTMENT OF RECEIVER; LENDER IN POSSESSION. |
| (a) | As part of the consideration for the Indebtedness, Borrower absolutely and unconditionally assigns and transfers to Lender all Rents. It is the intention of Borrower to establish a present, absolute and irrevocable transfer and assignment to Lender of all Rents and to authorize and empower Lender to collect and receive all Rents without the necessity of further action on the part of Borrower. Promptly upon request by Lender, Borrower agrees to execute and deliver such further assignments as Lender may from time to time require. Borrower and Lender intend this assignment of Rents to be immediately effective and to constitute an absolute present assignment and not an assignment for additional security only. For purposes of giving effect to this absolute assignment of Rents, and for no other purpose, Rents shall not be deemed to be a part of the Mortgaged Property. However, if this present, absolute and unconditional assignment of Rents is not enforceable by its terms under the laws of the Property Jurisdiction, then the Rents shall be included as a part of the Mortgaged Property and it is the intention of the Borrower that in this circumstance this Instrument create and perfect a lien on Rents in favor of Lender, which lien shall be effective as of the date of this Instrument. |
| (b) | After the occurrence of an Event of Default, and during the continuance of such Event of Default, Borrower authorizes Lender to collect, sue for and compromise Rents and directs each tenant of the Mortgaged Property to pay all Rents to, or as directed by, Lender. However, until the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender hereby grants to Borrower a revocable license to collect and receive all Rents, to hold all Rents in trust for the benefit of Lender and to apply all Rents to pay the installments of interest and principal then due and payable under the Note and the other amounts then due and payable under the other Loan Documents, including Imposition Deposits, and to pay the current costs and expenses of managing, operating and maintaining the Mortgaged Property, including utilities, Taxes and insurance premiums (to the extent not included in Imposition Deposits), tenant improvements and other capital expenditures. So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Rents remaining after application pursuant to the preceding sentence may be retained by Borrower free and clear of, and released from, Lender’s rights with respect to Rents under this Instrument. From and after the occurrence of an Event of Default and during the |
Page 13
| continuance of such Event of Default, and without the necessity of Lender entering upon and taking and maintaining control of the Mortgaged Property directly, or by a receiver, Borrower’s license to collect Rents shall automatically terminate and Lender shall without Notice be entitled to all Rents as they become due and payable, including Rents then due and unpaid. Borrower shall pay to Lender upon demand all Rents to which Lender is entitled. At any time on or after the date of Lender’s demand for Rents, (i) Lender may give, and Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes Lender to give, notice to all tenants of the Mortgaged Property instructing them to pay all Rents to Lender, (ii) no tenant shall be obligated to inquire further as to the occurrence or continuance of an Event of Default, and (iii) no tenant shall be obligated to pay to Borrower any amounts which are actually paid to Lender in response to such a notice. Any such notice by Lender shall be delivered to each tenant personally, by mail or by delivering such demand to each rental unit. Borrower shall not interfere with and shall cooperate with Lender’s collection of such Rents. |
| (c) | Borrower represents and warrants to Lender that Borrower has not executed any prior assignment of Rents (other than an assignment of Rents securing any prior indebtedness that is being assigned to Lender, or paid off and discharged with the proceeds of the Loan evidenced by the Note), that Borrower has not performed, and Borrower covenants and agrees that it will not perform, any acts and has not executed, and shall not execute, any instrument which would prevent Lender from exercising its rights under this Section 3, and that at the time of execution of this Instrument there has been no anticipation or prepayment of any Rents for more than two months prior to the due dates of such Rents. Borrower shall not collect or accept payment of any Rents more than two months prior to the due dates of such Rents. |
| (d) | If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Lender may, regardless of the adequacy of Lender’s security or the solvency of Borrower and even in the absence of waste, enter upon and take and maintain full control of the Mortgaged Property in order to perform all acts that Lender in its discretion determines to be necessary or desirable for the operation and maintenance of the Mortgaged Property, including the execution, cancellation or modification of Leases, the collection of all Rents, the making of repairs to the Mortgaged Property and the execution or termination of contracts providing for the management, operation or maintenance of the Mortgaged Property, for the purposes of enforcing the assignment of Rents pursuant to Section 3(a), protecting the Mortgaged Property or the security of this Instrument, or for such other purposes as Lender in its discretion may deem necessary or desirable. Alternatively, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, regardless of the adequacy of Lender’s security, without regard to Borrower’s solvency and without the necessity of giving prior notice (oral or written) to Borrower, Lender may apply to any court having jurisdiction for the appointment of a receiver for the Mortgaged Property to take any or all of the actions set forth in the preceding sentence. If Lender elects to |
Page 14
| seek the appointment of a receiver for the Mortgaged Property at any time after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower, by its execution of this Instrument, expressly consents to the appointment of such receiver, including the appointment of a receiver ex parte if permitted by applicable law. If Borrower is a housing cooperative corporation or association, Borrower hereby agrees that if a receiver is appointed, the order appointing the receiver may contain a provision requiring the receiver to pay the installments of interest and principal then due and payable under the Note and the other amounts then due and payable under the other Loan Documents, including Imposition Deposits, it being acknowledged and agreed that the Indebtedness is an obligation of the Borrower and must be paid out of maintenance charges payable by the Borrower’s tenant shareholders under their proprietary leases or occupancy agreements. Lender or the receiver, as the case may be, shall be entitled to receive a reasonable fee for managing the Mortgaged Property. Immediately upon appointment of a receiver or immediately upon the Lender’s entering upon and taking possession and control of the Mortgaged Property, Borrower shall surrender possession of the Mortgaged Property to Lender or the receiver, as the case may be, and shall deliver to Lender or the receiver, as the case may be, all documents, records (including records on electronic or magnetic media), accounts, surveys, plans, and specifications relating to the Mortgaged Property and all security deposits and prepaid Rents. In the event Lender takes possession and control of the Mortgaged Property, Lender may exclude Borrower and its representatives from the Mortgaged Property. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the exercise by Lender of any of the rights conferred under this Section 3 shall not be construed to make Lender a mortgagee-in-possession of the Mortgaged Property so long as Lender has not itself entered into actual possession of the Land and Improvements. |
| (e) | If Lender enters the Mortgaged Property, Lender shall be liable to account only to Borrower and only for those Rents actually received. Except to the extent of Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, Lender shall not be liable to Borrower, anyone claiming under or through Borrower or anyone having an interest in the Mortgaged Property, by reason of any act or omission of Lender under Section 3(d), and Borrower hereby releases and discharges Lender from any such liability to the fullest extent permitted by law. |
| (f) | If the Rents are not sufficient to meet the costs of taking control of and managing the Mortgaged Property and collecting the Rents, any funds expended by Lender for such purposes shall become an additional part of the Indebtedness as provided in Section 12. |
| (g) | Any entering upon and taking of control of the Mortgaged Property by Lender or the receiver, as the case may be, and any application of Rents as provided in this Instrument shall not cure or waive any Event of Default or invalidate any other right or remedy of Lender under applicable law or provided for in this Instrument. |
Page 15
| 4. | ASSIGNMENT OF LEASES; LEASES AFFECTING THE MORTGAGED PROPERTY. |
| (a) | As part of the consideration for the Indebtedness, Borrower absolutely and unconditionally assigns and transfers to Lender all of Borrower’s right, title and interest in, to and under the Leases, including Borrower’s right, power and authority to modify the terms of any such Lease, or extend or terminate any such Lease. It is the intention of Borrower to establish a present, absolute and irrevocable transfer and assignment to Lender of all of Borrower’s right, title and interest in, to and under the Leases. Borrower and Lender intend this assignment of the Leases to be immediately effective and to constitute an absolute present assignment and not an assignment for additional security only. For purposes of giving effect to this absolute assignment of the Leases, and for no other purpose, the Leases shall not be deemed to be a part of the Mortgaged Property. However, if this present, absolute and unconditional assignment of the Leases is not enforceable by its terms under the laws of the Property Jurisdiction, then the Leases shall be included as a part of the Mortgaged Property and it is the intention of the Borrower that in this circumstance this Instrument create and perfect a lien on the Leases in favor of Lender, which lien shall be effective as of the date of this Instrument. |
| (b) | Until Lender gives Notice to Borrower of Lender’s exercise of its rights under this Section 4, Borrower shall have all rights, power and authority granted to Borrower under any Lease (except as otherwise limited by this Section or any other provision of this Instrument), including the right, power and authority to modify the terms of any Lease or extend or terminate any Lease. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and during the continuance of such Event of Default, the permission given to Borrower pursuant to the preceding sentence to exercise all rights, power and authority under Leases shall automatically terminate. Borrower shall comply with and observe Borrower’s obligations under all Leases, including Borrower’s obligations pertaining to the maintenance and disposition of tenant security deposits. |
| (c) | Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the exercise by Lender, either directly or by a receiver, of any of the rights conferred under this Section 4 shall not be construed to make Lender a mortgagee-in-possession of the Mortgaged Property so long as Lender has not itself entered into actual possession of the Land and the Improvements. The acceptance by Lender of the assignment of the Leases pursuant to Section 4(a) shall not at any time or in any event obligate Lender to take any action under this Instrument or to expend any money or to incur any expenses. Except to the extent of Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, Lender shall not be liable in any way for any injury or damage to person or property sustained by any Person or Persons in or about the Mortgaged Property. Prior to Lender’s actual entry into and taking possession of the Mortgaged Property, Lender shall not (i) be obligated to perform any of the terms, |
Page 16
| covenants and conditions contained in any Lease (or otherwise have any obligation with respect to any Lease); (ii) be obligated to appear in or defend any action or proceeding relating to the Lease or the Mortgaged Property; or (iii) be responsible for the operation, control, care, management or repair of the Mortgaged Property or any portion of the Mortgaged Property. The execution of this Instrument by Borrower shall constitute conclusive evidence that all responsibility for the operation, control, care, management and repair of the Mortgaged Property is and shall be that of Borrower, prior to such actual entry and taking of possession. |
| (d) | Upon delivery of Notice by Lender to Borrower of Lender’s exercise of Lender’s rights under this Section 4 at any time after the occurrence of an Event of Default and during the continuance of such Event of Default, and without the necessity of Lender entering upon and taking and maintaining control of the Mortgaged Property directly, by a receiver, or by any other manner or proceeding permitted by the laws of the Property Jurisdiction, Lender immediately shall have all rights, powers and authority granted to Borrower under any Lease, including the right, power and authority to modify the terms of any such Lease, or extend or terminate any such Lease. |
| (e) | Borrower shall, promptly upon Lender’s request, deliver to Lender an executed copy of each residential Lease then in effect. All Leases for residential dwelling units shall be on forms approved by Lender, shall be for initial terms of at least six months and not more than two years, and shall not include options to purchase. |
| (f) | Borrower shall not (i) enter into any Lease for any portion of the Mortgaged Property for non-residential use (“Non-Residential Lease”) which is not in existence as of the date of this Instrument (“New Non-Residential Lease”) or (ii) modify the terms of or extend any Non-Residential Lease (including any Non-Residential Lease in existence on the date of this Instrument) (“Modified Non-Residential Lease”) except as set forth below without the prior written consent of Lender; provided, however, Lender’s consent shall not be required for Borrower to enter into a New Non-Residential Lease or a Modified Non-Residential Lease, provided that such New Non-Residential Lease or Modified Non-Residential Lease satisfies the following requirements: |
| (i) | the tenant under the New Non-Residential Lease is not an Affiliate of the Borrower or any guarantor; |
| (ii) | the terms of the New Non-Residential Lease or Modified Non-Residential Lease are at least as favorable to Borrower as those customary in the applicable market on the date Borrower enters into such Lease; |
Page 17
| (iii) | the rents paid to the Borrower pursuant to the New Non-Residential Lease or Modified Non-Residential Lease are not less than 90% of the rents paid to Borrower pursuant to the Non-Residential Lease for that portion of the Mortgaged Property which was in effect prior to the New Non-Residential Lease or Modified Non-Residential Lease; |
| (iv) | the term of the New Non-Residential Lease or Modified Non-Residential Lease, including any option to extend, is 10 years or less; |
| (v) | the New Non-Residential Lease or Modified Non-Residential Lease must provide that the space may not be used or operated, in whole or in part, for any of the following: (1) the operation of a so-called “head shop” or other business devoted to the sale of articles or merchandise normally used or associated with illegal or unlawful activities such as, but not limited to, the sale of paraphernalia used in connection with marijuana or controlled drugs or substances, (2) a gun shop, shooting gallery or firearms range, (3) a so-called massage parlor or any business which sells, rents or permits the viewing of so-called “adult” or pornographic materials such as, but not limited to, adult magazines, books, movies, photographs, sexual aids, sexual articles and sex paraphernalia, (4) any use involving the sale or distribution of any flammable liquids, gases or other Hazardous Materials as defined under this Instrument, (5) an off-track betting parlor or arcade, (6) a liquor store or other business whose primary business is the sale of alcoholic beverages for off-site consumption, (7) a burlesque or strip club, or (8) any other illegal activity; and |
| (vi) | the aggregate of the income derived from the space leased pursuant to the New Non-Residential Lease accounts for less than 20% of the gross income of the Mortgaged Property on the date which Borrower enters into the New Non-Residential Lease. |
| (g) | Borrower shall, without request by Lender, deliver a fully executed copy of each Non-Residential Lease to Lender promptly after such Lease is signed. |
| (h) | All Non-Residential Leases regardless of whether Lender’s consent or approval is required, including renewals or extensions of existing Leases, shall specifically provide that: |
| (i) | such Leases are subordinate to the lien of this Instrument; |
| (ii) | the tenant shall attorn to Lender and any purchaser at a foreclosure sale, such attornment to be self-executing and effective upon acquisition of title to the Mortgaged Property by any purchaser at a foreclosure sale or by Lender in any manner; |
Page 18
| (iii) | the tenant agrees to execute such further evidences of attornment as Lender or any purchaser at a foreclosure sale may from time to time request; |
| (iv) | such Lease shall not be terminated by foreclosure or any other Transfer of the Mortgaged Property unless, subject to any Subordination, Non-Disturbance and Attornment Agreement, Lender affirmatively elects to terminate such Lease; and |
| (v) | the tenant shall, upon receipt of a written request from Lender after the occurrence of an Event of Default, pay all Rents payable under such Lease to Lender. |
| (i) | Borrower shall not receive or accept Rent under any Lease (whether residential or Non-Residential) for more than two months in advance. |
| (j) | If Borrower is a cooperative housing corporation or association, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this subsection or in Section 21, so long as Borrower remains a cooperative housing corporation or association and is not in breach of any covenant of this Instrument, Lender hereby consents to: |
| (i) | the execution of leases of apartments for a term in excess of two years from Borrower to a tenant shareholder of Borrower, so long as such leases, including proprietary leases, are and will remain subordinate to the lien of this Instrument; and |
| (ii) | the surrender or termination of such leases of apartments where the surrendered or terminated lease is immediately replaced or where the Borrower makes its best efforts to secure such immediate replacement by a newly executed lease of the same apartment to a tenant shareholder of the Borrower. However, no consent is hereby given by Lender to any execution, surrender, termination or assignment of a lease under terms that would waive or reduce the obligation of the resulting tenant shareholder under such lease to pay cooperative assessments in full when due or the obligation of the former tenant shareholder to pay any unpaid portion of such assessments. |
| 5. | PAYMENT OF INDEBTEDNESS; PERFORMANCE UNDER LOAN DOCUMENTS; PREPAYMENT PREMIUM. Borrower shall pay the Indebtedness when due in accordance with the terms of the Note and the other Loan Documents and shall perform, observe and comply with all other provisions of the Note and the other Loan Documents. Borrower shall pay a prepayment premium in connection with certain prepayments of the Indebtedness, including a payment made after Lender’s exercise of any right of acceleration of the Indebtedness, as provided in the Note. |
Page 19
| 6. | EXCULPATION. Borrower’s personal liability for payment of the Indebtedness and for performance of the other obligations to be performed by it under this Instrument is limited in the manner, and to the extent, provided in the Note. |
| 7. | DEPOSITS FOR TAXES, INSURANCE AND OTHER CHARGES. |
| (a) | Unless this requirement is waived in writing by Lender, which waiver may be contained in this Section 7(a), Borrower shall deposit with Lender on the day monthly installments of principal or interest, or both, are due under the Note (or on another day designated in writing by Lender), until the Indebtedness is paid in full, an additional amount sufficient to accumulate with Lender the entire sum required to pay, when due, the items marked “Collect” below. Lender will not require the Borrower to make Imposition Deposits with respect to the items marked “Deferred” below. |
| [Collect] | Hazard Insurance premiums or other insurance premiums required by Lender under Section 19 | |
| [Collect] | Taxes or payments in lieu of taxes (PILOT) | |
| [Deferred] | water and sewer charges (that could become a lien on the Mortgaged Property) | |
| [N/A] | ground rents | |
| [Deferred] | assessments or other charges (that could become a lien on the Mortgaged Property) |
The amounts deposited under the preceding sentence are collectively referred to in this Instrument as the “Imposition Deposits.” The obligations of Borrower for which the Imposition Deposits are required are collectively referred to in this Instrument as “Impositions.” The amount of the Imposition Deposits shall be sufficient to enable Lender to pay each Imposition before the last date upon which such payment may be made without any penalty or interest charge being added. Lender shall maintain records indicating how much of the monthly Imposition Deposits and how much of the aggregate Imposition Deposits held by Lender are held for the purpose of paying Taxes, insurance premiums and each other Imposition.
| (b) | Imposition Deposits shall be deposited in an Eligible Account at an Eligible Institution (which may be Lender, if Lender is such an institution) and shall be invested in “permitted investments” as then defined and required by the Rating Agencies. Lender shall not be obligated to open additional accounts or deposit Imposition Deposits in additional institutions when the amount of the Imposition Deposits exceeds the maximum amount of the federal deposit insurance or guaranty. Lender shall apply the Imposition Deposits to pay Impositions so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. Unless applicable law requires, Lender shall not be required to pay Borrower any interest, earnings or profits on the Imposition Deposits. As additional security for all of Borrower’s |
Page 20
| obligations under this Instrument and the other Loan Documents, Borrower hereby pledges and grants to Lender a security interest in the Imposition Deposits and all proceeds of, and all interest and dividends on, the Imposition Deposits. Any amounts deposited with Lender under this Section 7 shall not be trust funds, nor shall they operate to reduce the Indebtedness, unless applied by Lender for that purpose under Section 7(e). |
| (c) | If Lender receives a bill or invoice for an Imposition, Lender shall pay the Imposition from the Imposition Deposits held by Lender. Lender shall have no obligation to pay any Imposition to the extent it exceeds Imposition Deposits then held by Lender. Lender may pay an Imposition according to any bill, statement or estimate from the appropriate public office or insurance company without inquiring into the accuracy of the bill, statement or estimate or into the validity of the Imposition. |
| (d) | If at any time the amount of the Imposition Deposits held by Lender for payment of a specific Imposition exceeds the amount reasonably deemed necessary by Lender, the excess shall be credited against future installments of Imposition Deposits. If at any time the amount of the Imposition Deposits held by Lender for payment of a specific Imposition is less than the amount reasonably estimated by Lender to be necessary, Borrower shall pay to Lender the amount of the deficiency within 15 days after Notice from Lender. |
| (e) | If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Lender may apply any Imposition Deposits, in any amounts and in any order as Lender determines, in Lender’s discretion, to pay any Impositions or as a credit against the Indebtedness. Upon payment in full of the Indebtedness, Lender shall refund to Borrower any Imposition Deposits held by Lender. |
| (f) | If Lender does not collect an Imposition Deposit with respect to an Imposition either marked “Deferred” in Section 7(a) or pursuant to a separate written waiver by Lender, then on or before the date each such Imposition is due, or on the date this Instrument requires each such Imposition to be paid, Borrower must provide Lender with proof of payment of each such Imposition for which Lender does not require collection of Imposition Deposits. Lender may revoke its deferral or waiver and require Borrower to deposit with Lender any or all of the Imposition Deposits listed in Section 7(a), regardless of whether any such item is marked “Deferred” in such section, upon Notice to Borrower, (i) if Borrower does not timely pay any of the Impositions, (ii) if Borrower fails to provide timely proof to Lender of such payment, or (iii) at any time during the existence of an Event of Default. |
| (g) | In the event of a Transfer prohibited by or requiring Lender’s approval under Section 21, Lender’s waiver of the collection of any Imposition Deposit in this Section 7 may be modified or rendered void by Lender at Lender’s option by |
Page 21
| Notice to Borrower and the transferee(s) as a condition of Lender’s approval of such Transfer. |
| 8. | COLLATERAL AGREEMENTS. Borrower shall deposit with Lender such amounts as may be required by any Collateral Agreement and shall perform all other obligations of Borrower under each Collateral Agreement. |
| 9. | APPLICATION OF PAYMENTS. If at any time Lender receives, from Borrower or otherwise, any amount applicable to the Indebtedness which is less than all amounts due and payable at such time, then Lender may apply that payment to amounts then due and payable in any manner and in any order determined by Lender, in Lender’s discretion. Neither Lender’s acceptance of an amount that is less than all amounts then due and payable nor Lender’s application of such payment in the manner authorized shall constitute or be deemed to constitute either a waiver of the unpaid amounts or an accord and satisfaction. Notwithstanding the application of any such amount to the Indebtedness, Borrower’s obligations under this Instrument and the Note shall remain unchanged. |
| 10. | COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS AND ORGANIZATIONAL DOCUMENTS. |
| (a) | Borrower shall comply with all laws, ordinances, regulations and requirements of any Governmental Authority and all recorded lawful covenants and agreements relating to or affecting the Mortgaged Property, including all laws, ordinances, regulations, requirements and covenants pertaining to health and safety, construction of improvements on the Mortgaged Property, fair housing, disability accommodation, zoning and land use, and Leases. Borrower also shall comply with all applicable laws that pertain to the maintenance and disposition of tenant security deposits. |
| (b) | Borrower shall at all times maintain records sufficient to demonstrate compliance with the provisions of this Section 10. |
| (c) | Borrower shall take appropriate measures to prevent, and shall not engage in or knowingly permit, any illegal activities at the Mortgaged Property that could endanger tenants or visitors, result in damage to the Mortgaged Property, result in forfeiture of the Mortgaged Property, or otherwise materially impair the lien created by this Instrument or Lender’s interest in the Mortgaged Property. Borrower represents and warrants to Lender that no portion of the Mortgaged Property has been or will be purchased with the proceeds of any illegal activity. |
| (d) | Borrower shall at all times comply with all laws, regulations and requirements of any Governmental Authority relating to Borrower’s formation, continued existence and good standing in the Property Jurisdiction. Borrower shall at all times comply with its organizational documents, including but not limited to its partnership agreement (if Borrower is a partnership), its by-laws (if Borrower is a corporation or housing cooperative corporation or association) or its operating |
Page 22
| agreement (if Borrower is an limited liability company or tenancy-in-common). If Borrower is a housing cooperative corporation or association, Borrower shall at all times maintain its status as a “cooperative housing corporation” as such term is defined in Section 216(b) of the Internal revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or any successor statute thereto. |
| (e) | Borrower represents and warrants that Borrower, any commercial tenant of the Mortgaged Property and/or any operator of the Mortgaged Property were in possession of all material licenses, permits and authorizations required for use of the Mortgaged Property which were valid and in full force and effect as of the date of this Instrument. Borrower warrants that it, any commercial tenant of the Mortgaged Property and/or any operator of the Mortgaged Property shall remain in material compliance with all material licenses, permits and other legal requirements necessary and required to conduct its business. |
| 11. | USE OF PROPERTY. Unless required by applicable law, Borrower shall not |
| (a) | allow changes in the use for which all or any part of the Mortgaged Property is being used at the time this Instrument was executed, except for any change in use approved by Lender, |
| (b) | convert any individual dwelling units or common areas to commercial use, |
| (c) | initiate a change in the zoning classification of the Mortgaged Property or acquiesce without Notice to and consent of Lender in a change in the zoning classification of the Mortgaged Property, |
| (d) | establish any condominium or cooperative regime with respect to the Mortgaged Property, |
| (e) | combine all or any part of the Mortgaged Property with all or any part of a tax parcel which is not part of the Mortgaged Property, or |
| (f) | subdivide or otherwise split any tax parcel constituting all or any part of the Mortgaged Property without the prior consent of Lender. The Mortgaged Property (x) permits ingress and egress, (y) is served by public utilities and services generally available in the surrounding community or otherwise appropriate for the use in which the Mortgaged Property is currently being utilized, and (z) constitutes one or more separate tax parcels or the Lender’s title policy contains one or more endorsements with respect to the matters described in (x) or (z). |
Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section to the contrary, if Borrower is a housing cooperative corporation or association, Lender acknowledges and consents to Borrower’s use of the Mortgaged Property as a housing cooperative.
Page 23
| 12. | PROTECTION OF LENDER’S SECURITY; INSTRUMENT SECURES FUTURE ADVANCES. |
| (a) | If Borrower fails to perform any of its obligations under this Instrument or any other Loan Document, or if any action or proceeding is commenced which purports to affect the Mortgaged Property, Lender’s security or Lender’s rights under this Instrument, including eminent domain, insolvency, code enforcement, civil or criminal forfeiture, enforcement of Hazardous Materials Laws, fraudulent conveyance or reorganizations or proceedings involving a bankrupt or decedent, then Lender at Lender’s option may make such appearances, file such documents, disburse such sums and take such actions as Lender reasonably deems necessary to perform such obligations of Borrower and to protect Lender’s interest, including (i) payment of Attorneys’ Fees and Costs, (ii) payment of fees and out-of-pocket expenses of accountants, inspectors and consultants, (iii) entry upon the Mortgaged Property to make repairs or secure the Mortgaged Property, (iv) procurement of the insurance required by Section 19, (v) payment of amounts which Borrower has failed to pay under Sections 15 and 17, and (vi) advances made by Lender to pay, satisfy or discharge any obligation of Borrower for the payment of money that is secured by a pre-existing mortgage, deed of trust or other lien encumbering the Mortgaged Property (a “Prior Lien”). |
| (b) | Any amounts disbursed by Lender under this Section 12, or under any other provision of this Instrument that treats such disbursement as being made under this Section 12, shall be secured by this Instrument, shall be added to, and become part of, the principal component of the Indebtedness, shall be immediately due and payable and shall bear interest from the date of disbursement until paid at the “Default Rate,” as defined in the Note. |
| (c) | Nothing in this Section 12 shall require Lender to incur any expense or take any action. |
| 13. | INSPECTION. |
| (a) | Lender, its agents, representatives, and designees may make or cause to be made entries upon and inspections of the Mortgaged Property (including environmental inspections and tests) during normal business hours, or at any other reasonable time, upon reasonable notice to Borrower if the inspection is to include occupied residential units (which notice need not be in writing). Notice to Borrower shall not be required in the case of an emergency, as determined in Lender’s discretion, or when an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. |
| (b) | If Lender determines that Mold has developed as a result of a water intrusion event or leak, Lender, at Lender’s discretion, may require that a professional inspector inspect the Mortgaged Property as frequently as Lender determines is necessary until any issue with Mold and its cause(s) are resolved to Lender’s |
Page 24
| satisfaction. Such inspection shall be limited to a visual and olfactory inspection of the area that has experienced the Mold, water intrusion event or leak. Borrower shall be responsible for the cost of such professional inspection and any remediation deemed to be necessary as a result of the professional inspection. After any issue with Mold, water intrusion or leaks is remedied to Lender’s satisfaction, Lender shall not require a professional inspection any more frequently than once every three years unless Lender is otherwise aware of Mold as a result of a subsequent water intrusion event or leak. |
| (c) | If Lender or Loan Servicer determines not to conduct an annual inspection of the Mortgaged Property, and in lieu thereof Lender requests a certification, Borrower shall be prepared to provide and must actually provide to Lender a factually correct certification each year that the annual inspection is waived to the following effect: |
Borrower has not received any written complaint, notice, letter or other written communication from tenants, management agent or governmental authorities regarding mold, fungus, microbial contamination or pathogenic organisms (“Mold”) or any activity, condition, event or omission that causes or facilitates the growth of Mold on or in any part of the Mortgaged Property or if Borrower has received any such written complaint, notice, letter or other written communication that Borrower has investigated and determined that no Mold activity, condition or event exists or alternatively has fully and properly remediated such activity, condition, event or omission in compliance with the Moisture Management Plan for the Mortgaged Property.
If Borrower is unwilling or unable to provide such certification, Lender may require a professional inspection of the Mortgaged Property at Borrower’s expense.
| 14. | BOOKS AND RECORDS; FINANCIAL REPORTING. |
| (a) | Borrower shall keep and maintain at all times at the Mortgaged Property or the management agent’s office, and upon Lender’s request shall make available at the Mortgaged Property (or, at Borrower’s option, at the management agent’s office), complete and accurate books of account and records (including copies of supporting bills and invoices) adequate to reflect correctly the operation of the Mortgaged Property, in accordance with GAAP consistently applied (or such other method which is reasonably acceptable to Lender), and copies of all written contracts, Leases, and other instruments which affect the Mortgaged Property. |
Page 25
The books, records, contracts, Leases and other instruments shall be subject to examination and inspection by Lender at any reasonable time.
| (b) | Borrower shall furnish to Lender each of the following within twenty-five (25) days after the end of each calendar quarter prior to Securitization and within thirty-five (35) days after the end of each calendar quarter after Securitization: |
| (i) | a Rent Schedule dated no earlier than the date which is five (5) days prior to the end of such quarter; and |
| (ii) | a statement of income and expenses for Borrower’s operation of the Mortgaged Property either |
| (A) | for the twelve (12) month period ending upon the last day of such quarter, or |
| (B) | if at the end of such quarter Borrower and any Affiliate of Borrower have owner the Mortgaged Property for less than twelve (12) months, for the period commencing with the acquisition of the Mortgaged Property by Borrower or its Affiliates, and ending upon the last day of such quarter. |
| (c) | Within ninety (90) days after the end of each fiscal year of Borrower, Borrower shall furnish to Lender each of the following: |
| (i) | an annual statement of income and expenses for Borrower’s operation of the Mortgaged Property for that fiscal year; |
| (ii) | a statement of changes in financial position of Borrower relating to the Mortgaged Property for that fiscal year; |
| (iii) | a balance sheet showing all assets and liabilities of Borrower relating to the Mortgaged Property as of the end of that fiscal year and a profit and loss statement for Borrower; and |
| (iv) | an accounting of all security deposits held pursuant to all Leases, including the name of the institution (if any) and the names and identification numbers of the accounts (if any) in which such security deposits are held and the name of the person to contact at such financial institution, along with any authority or release necessary for Lender to access information regarding such accounts. |
| (d) | Borrower shall furnish to Lender each of the following: |
| (i) | in addition to the requirements of Section 14(b), upon Lender’s request prior to a Securitization, and thereafter upon Lender’s reasonable request, in each |
Page 26
| case within twenty-five (25) days after the end of each month, a monthly Rent Schedule and a monthly statement of income and expenses for Borrower’s operation of the Mortgaged Property; |
| (ii) | upon Lender’s request prior to a Securitization, and thereafter upon Lender’s reasonable request, in each case within ten (10) days after such request, a statement that identifies all owners of any interest in Borrower and any Controlling Entity and the interest held by each (unless Borrower or any Controlling Entity is a publicly-traded entity in which case such statement of ownership shall not be required), and if Borrower or a Controlling Entity is a corporation, all officers and directors of Borrower and the Controlling Entity, and if Borrower or a Controlling Entity is a limited liability company, all Managers who are not members; |
| (iii) | copies of all tax returns filed by Borrower, within thirty (30) days after the date of filing; and |
| (iv) | such other financial information or property management information (including, without limitation, information on tenants under Leases to the extent such information is available to Borrower, copies of bank account statements from financial institutions where funds owned or controlled by Borrower are maintained, and an accounting of security deposits) as may be required by Lender from time to time. |
| (e) | At any time upon Lender’s request, Borrower shall furnish to Lender a monthly property management report for the Mortgaged Property, showing the number of inquiries made and rental applications received from tenants or prospective tenants and deposits received from tenants and any other information requested by Lender. However, Lender shall not require the foregoing more frequently than quarterly except when there has been an Event of Default and such Event of Default is continuing, in which case Lender may require Borrower to furnish the foregoing more frequently. |
| (f) | A natural person having authority to bind Borrower (or the SPE Equity Owner or guarantor, as applicable) shall certify each of the statements, schedules and reports required by Sections 14(b) through 14(e) and 14(h) to be complete and accurate. Each of the statements, schedules and reports required by Sections 14(b) through 14(e) and 14(h) shall be in such form and contain such detail as Lender may reasonably require. Lender also may require that any of the statements, schedules or reports listed in Section 14(b), 14(c) and Section 14(d)(i) and (iv) be audited at Borrower’s expense by independent certified public accountants acceptable to Lender, at any time when an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or at any time that Lender, in its reasonable judgment, determines that audited financial statements are required for an accurate assessment of the financial condition of Borrower or of the Mortgaged Property. |
Page 27
| (g) | If Borrower fails to provide in a timely manner the statements, schedules and reports required by Sections 14(b) through 14(e) and 14(h), Lender shall give Borrower Notice specifying the statements, schedules and reports required by Section 14(b) through 14(e) and 14(h) that Borrower has failed to provide. If Borrower has not provided the required statements, schedules and reports within 10 Business Days following such Notice, then Lender shall have the right to have Borrower’s books and records audited, at Borrower’s expense, by independent certified public accountants selected by Lender in order to obtain such statements, schedules and reports, and all related costs and expenses of Lender shall become immediately due and payable and shall become an additional part of the Indebtedness as provided in Section 12. Notice to Borrower shall not be required in the case of an emergency, as determined in Lender’s discretion, or when an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. |
| (h) | Borrower shall cause each guarantor and, at Lender’s request, any SPE Equity Owner, to provide to Lender (i) within ninety (90) days after the close of such party’s fiscal year, such party’s balance sheet and profit and loss statement (or if such party is a natural person, within ninety (90) days after the close of each calendar year, such party’s personal financial statements) in form reasonably satisfactory to Lender and certified by such party to be accurate and complete; and (ii) such additional financial information (including, without limitation, copies of state and federal tax returns with respect to any SPE Equity Owner but Lender shall only require copies of such tax returns with respect to each guarantor if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) as Lender may reasonably require from time to time and in such detail as reasonably required by Lender. |
| (i) | If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower shall deliver to Lender upon written demand all books and records relating to the Mortgaged Property or its operation. |
| (j) | Borrower authorizes Lender to obtain a credit report on Borrower at any time. |
| 15. | TAXES; OPERATING EXPENSES. |
| (a) | Subject to the provisions of Section 15(c) and Section 15(d), Borrower shall pay, or cause to be paid, all Taxes when due and before the addition of any interest, fine, penalty or cost for nonpayment. |
| (b) | Subject to the provisions of Section 15(c), Borrower shall (i) pay the expenses of operating, managing, maintaining and repairing the Mortgaged Property (including utilities, repairs and replacements) before the last date upon which each such payment may be made without any penalty or interest charge being added, and (ii) pay insurance premiums at least 30 days prior to the expiration date of each policy of insurance, unless applicable law specifies some lesser period. |
Page 28
| (c) | If Lender is collecting Imposition Deposits, to the extent that Lender holds sufficient Imposition Deposits for the purpose of paying a specific Imposition, then Borrower shall not be obligated to pay such Imposition, so long as no Event of Default exists and Borrower has timely delivered to Lender any bills or premium notices that it has received. If an Event of Default exists, Lender may exercise any rights Lender may have with respect to Imposition Deposits without regard to whether Impositions are then due and payable. Lender shall have no liability to Borrower for failing to pay any Impositions to the extent that (i) any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (ii) insufficient Imposition Deposits are held by Lender at the time an Imposition becomes due and payable or (iii) Borrower has failed to provide Lender with bills and premium notices as provided above. |
| (d) | Borrower, at its own expense, may contest by appropriate legal proceedings, conducted diligently and in good faith, the amount or validity of any Imposition other than insurance premiums, if (i) Borrower notifies Lender of the commencement or expected commencement of such proceedings, (ii) the Mortgaged Property is not in danger of being sold or forfeited, (iii) if Borrower has not already paid the Imposition, Borrower deposits with Lender reserves sufficient to pay the contested Imposition, if requested by Lender, and (iv) Borrower furnishes whatever additional security is required in the proceedings or is reasonably requested by Lender. |
| (e) | Borrower shall promptly deliver to Lender a copy of all notices of, and invoices for, Impositions, and if Borrower pays any Imposition directly, Borrower shall furnish to Lender, on or before the date this Instrument requires such Impositions to be paid, receipts evidencing that such payments were made. |
| 16. | LIENS; ENCUMBRANCES. Borrower acknowledges that, to the extent provided in Section 21, the grant, creation or existence of any mortgage, deed of trust, deed to secure debt, security interest or other lien or encumbrance (a “Lien”) on the Mortgaged Property (other than the lien of this Instrument) or on certain ownership interests in Borrower, whether voluntary, involuntary or by operation of law, and whether or not such Lien has priority over the lien of this Instrument, is a “Transfer” which constitutes an Event of Default and subjects Borrower to personal liability under the Note. |
| 17. | PRESERVATION, MANAGEMENT AND MAINTENANCE OF MORTGAGED PROPERTY. |
| (a) | Borrower shall not commit waste or permit impairment or deterioration of the Mortgaged Property. |
| (b) | Borrower shall not abandon the Mortgaged Property. |
| (c) | Borrower shall restore or repair promptly, in a good and workmanlike manner, any damaged part of the Mortgaged Property to the equivalent of its original |
Page 29
| condition, or such other condition as Lender may approve in writing, whether or not insurance proceeds or condemnation awards are available to cover any costs of such restoration or repair; however, Borrower shall not be obligated to perform such restoration or repair if (i) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and (ii) Lender has elected to apply any available insurance proceeds and/or condemnation awards to the payment of Indebtedness pursuant to Section 19(h)(ii) through (viii), or pursuant to Section 20(d)(ii) through (viii). |
| (d) | Borrower shall keep the Mortgaged Property in good repair, including the replacement of Personalty and Fixtures with items of equal or better function and quality. |
| (e) | Borrower shall provide for professional management of the Mortgaged Property by the Property Manager or by a residential rental property manager satisfactory to Lender at all times under a property management agreement approved by Lender in writing. Borrower shall not surrender, terminate, cancel, modify, renew or extend its property management agreement, or enter into any other agreement relating to the management or operation of the Property with Property Manager or any other Person, or consent to the assignment by the Property Manager of its interest under such property management agreement, in each case without the consent of Lender, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.; If at any time Lender consents to the appointment of a new property manager, such new property manager and Borrower shall, as a condition of Lender’s consent, execute an assignment of management agreement in a form acceptable to Lender. If any such replacement property manager is an Affiliate of Borrower, and if a nonconsolidation opinion was delivered at the origination of the Loan, Borrower shall deliver to Lender an updated nonconsolidation opinion in form and substance satisfactory to any Rating Agencies then providing ongoing ratings with respect to any Securitization (unless waived by such Rating Agencies) with regard to nonconsolidation. |
| (f) | Borrower shall give Notice to Lender of and, unless otherwise directed in writing by Lender, shall appear in and defend any action or proceeding purporting to affect the Mortgaged Property, Lender’s security or Lender’s rights under this Instrument. Borrower shall not (and shall not permit any tenant or other person to) remove, demolish or alter the Mortgaged Property or any part of the Mortgaged Property, including any removal, demolition or alteration occurring in connection with a rehabilitation of all or part of the Mortgaged Property, except (i) in connection with the replacement of tangible Personalty, (ii) if Borrower is a cooperative housing corporation or association, to the extent permitted with respect to individual dwelling units under the form of proprietary lease or occupancy agreement and (iii) repairs and replacements in connection with making an individual unit ready for a new occupant. |
Page 30
| (g) | Unless otherwise waived by Lender in writing, Borrower must have or must establish and must adhere to the MMP. If the Borrower is required to have an MMP, the Borrower must keep all MMP documentation at the Mortgaged Property or at the management agent’s office and available for the Lender or the Loan Servicer to review during any annual assessment or other inspection of the Mortgaged Property that is required by Lender. |
| (h) | If Borrower is a housing cooperative corporation or association, until the Indebtedness is paid in full Borrower shall not reduce the maintenance fees, charges or assessments payable by shareholders or residents under proprietary leases or occupancy agreements below a level which is sufficient to pay all expenses of the Borrower, including, without limitation, all operating and other expenses for the Mortgaged Property and all payments due pursuant to the terms of the Note and any Loan Documents. |
| 18. | ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS. |
| (a) | Except for matters described in Section 18(b), Borrower shall not cause or permit any of the following: |
| (i) | the presence, use, generation, release, treatment, processing, storage (including storage in above ground and underground storage tanks), handling, or disposal of any Hazardous Materials on or under the Mortgaged Property; |
| (ii) | the transportation of any Hazardous Materials to, from, or across the Mortgaged Property; |
| (iii) | any occurrence or condition on the Mortgaged Property, which occurrence or condition is or may be in violation of Hazardous Materials Laws; |
| (iv) | any violation of or noncompliance with the terms of any Environmental Permit with respect to the Mortgaged Property; or |
| (v) | any violation or noncompliance with the terms of any O&M Program as defined in Subsection (d). |
The matters described in clauses (i) through (v) above, except as otherwise provided in Section 18(b), are referred to collectively in this Section 18 as “Prohibited Activities or Conditions.”
| (b) | Prohibited Activities or Conditions shall not include lawful conditions permitted by an O&M Program or the safe and lawful use and storage of quantities of (i) pre-packaged supplies, cleaning materials and petroleum products customarily used in the operation and maintenance of comparable multifamily properties, (ii) cleaning materials, personal grooming items and other items sold in pre-packaged containers for consumer use and used by tenants and occupants of residential |
Page 31
| dwelling units in the Mortgaged Property, and (iii) petroleum products used in the operation and maintenance of motor vehicles from time to time located on the Mortgaged Property’s parking areas, so long as all of the foregoing are used, stored, handled, transported and disposed of in compliance with Hazardous Materials Laws. |
| (c) | Borrower shall take all commercially reasonable actions (including the inclusion of appropriate provisions in any Leases executed after the date of this Instrument) to prevent its employees, agents, and contractors, and all tenants and other occupants from causing or permitting any Prohibited Activities or Conditions. Borrower shall not lease or allow the sublease or use of all or any portion of the Mortgaged Property to any tenant or subtenant for nonresidential use by any user that, in the ordinary course of its business, would cause or permit any Prohibited Activity or Condition. |
| (d) | As required by Lender, Borrower shall also have established a written operations and maintenance program with respect to certain Hazardous Materials. Each such operations and maintenance program and any additional or revised operations and maintenance programs established for the Mortgaged Property pursuant to this Section 18 must be approved by Lender and shall be referred to herein as an “O&M Program.” Borrower shall comply in a timely manner with, and cause all employees, agents, and contractors of Borrower and any other Persons present on the Mortgaged Property to comply with each O&M Program. Borrower shall pay all costs of performance of Borrower’s obligations under any O&M Program, and Lender’s out of pocket costs incurred in connection with the monitoring and review of each O&M Program and Borrower’s performance shall be paid by Borrower upon demand by Lender. Any such out-of-pocket costs of Lender that Borrower fails to pay promptly shall become an additional part of the Indebtedness as provided in Section 12. |
| (e) | Borrower represents and warrants to Lender that, except as previously disclosed by Borrower to Lender in writing (which written disclosure may be in certain environmental assessments and other written reports accepted by Lender in connection with the funding of the Indebtedness and dated prior to the date of this Instrument): |
| (i) | Borrower has not at any time engaged in, caused or permitted any Prohibited Activities or Conditions on the Mortgaged Property; |
| (ii) | to the best of Borrower’s knowledge after reasonable and diligent inquiry, no Prohibited Activities or Conditions exist or have existed on the Mortgaged Property; |
| (iii) | the Mortgaged Property does not now contain any underground storage tanks, and, to the best of Borrower’s knowledge after reasonable and |
Page 32
| diligent inquiry, the Mortgaged Property has not contained any underground storage tanks in the past. If there is an underground storage tank located on the Mortgaged Property that has been previously disclosed by Borrower to Lender in writing, that tank complies with all requirements of Hazardous Materials Laws; |
| (iv) | to the best of Borrower’s knowledge after reasonable and diligent inquiry, Borrower has complied with all Hazardous Materials Laws, including all requirements for notification regarding releases of Hazardous Materials. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Borrower has obtained all Environmental Permits required for the operation of the Mortgaged Property in accordance with Hazardous Materials Laws now in effect and all such Environmental Permits are in full force and effect; |
| (v) | to the best of Borrower’s knowledge after reasonable and diligent inquiry, no event has occurred with respect to the Mortgaged Property that constitutes, or with the passing of time or the giving of notice would constitute, noncompliance with the terms of any Environmental Permit; |
| (vi) | there are no actions, suits, claims or proceedings pending or, to the best of Borrower’s knowledge after reasonable and diligent inquiry, threatened that involve the Mortgaged Property and allege, arise out of, or relate to any Prohibited Activity or Condition; and |
| (vii) | Borrower has not received any written complaint, order, notice of violation or other communication from any Governmental Authority with regard to air emissions, water discharges, noise emissions or Hazardous Materials, or any other environmental, health or safety matters affecting the Mortgaged Property. |
| (f) | Borrower shall promptly notify Lender in writing upon the occurrence of any of the following events: |
| (i) | Borrower’s discovery of any Prohibited Activity or Condition; |
| (ii) | Borrower’s receipt of or knowledge of any written complaint, order, notice of violation or other communication from any tenant, management agent, Governmental Authority or other Person with regard to present or future alleged Prohibited Activities or Conditions, or any other environmental, health or safety matters affecting the Mortgaged Property; or |
| (iii) | Borrower’s breach of any of its obligations under this Section 18. |
Any such notice given by Borrower shall not relieve Borrower of, or result in a waiver of, any obligation under this Instrument, the Note, or any other Loan Document.
Page 33
| (g) | Borrower shall pay promptly the costs of any environmental inspections, tests or audits, a purpose of which is to identify the extent or cause of or potential for a Prohibited Activity or Condition (“Environmental Inspections”), required by Lender in connection with any foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure, or as a condition of Lender’s consent to any Transfer under Section 21, or required by Lender following a reasonable determination by Lender that Prohibited Activities or Conditions may exist. Any such costs incurred by Lender (including Attorneys’ Fees and Costs and the costs of technical consultants whether incurred in connection with any judicial or administrative process or otherwise) that Borrower fails to pay promptly shall become an additional part of the Indebtedness as provided in Section 12. As long as (i) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (ii) Borrower has actually paid for or reimbursed Lender for all costs of any such Environmental Inspections performed or required by Lender, and (iii) Lender is not prohibited by law, contract or otherwise from doing so, Lender shall make available to Borrower, without representation of any kind, copies of Environmental Inspections prepared by third parties and delivered to Lender. Lender hereby reserves the right, and Borrower hereby expressly authorizes Lender, to make available to any party, including any prospective bidder at a foreclosure sale of the Mortgaged Property, the results of any Environmental Inspections made by or for Lender with respect to the Mortgaged Property. Borrower consents to Lender notifying any party (either as part of a notice of sale or otherwise) of the results of any Environmental Inspections made by or for Lender. Borrower acknowledges that Lender cannot control or otherwise assure the truthfulness or accuracy of the results of any Environmental Inspections and that the release of such results to prospective bidders at a foreclosure sale of the Mortgaged Property may have a material and adverse effect upon the amount that a party may bid at such sale. Borrower agrees that Lender shall have no liability whatsoever as a result of delivering the results to any third party of any Environmental Inspections made by or for Lender, and Borrower hereby releases and forever discharges Lender from any and all claims, damages, or causes of action, arising out of, connected with or incidental to the results of, the delivery of any of Environmental Inspections made by or for Lender. |
| (h) | If any investigation, site monitoring, containment, clean-up, restoration or other remedial work (“Remedial Work”) is necessary to comply with any Hazardous Materials Law or order of any Governmental Authority that has or acquires jurisdiction over the Mortgaged Property or the use, operation or improvement of the Mortgaged Property, or is otherwise required by Lender as a consequence of any Prohibited Activity or Condition or to prevent the occurrence of a Prohibited Activity or Condition, Borrower shall, by the earlier of (i) the applicable deadline required by Hazardous Materials Law or (ii) 30 days after Notice from Lender demanding such action, begin performing the Remedial Work, and thereafter diligently prosecute it to completion, and shall in any event complete the work by the time required by applicable Hazardous Materials Law. If Borrower fails to |
Page 34
| begin on a timely basis or diligently prosecute any required Remedial Work, Lender may, at its option, cause the Remedial Work to be completed, in which case Borrower shall reimburse Lender on demand for the cost of doing so. Any reimbursement due from Borrower to Lender shall become part of the Indebtedness as provided in Section 12. |
| (i) | Borrower shall comply with all Hazardous Materials Laws applicable to the Mortgaged Property. Without limiting the generality of the previous sentence, Borrower shall (i) obtain and maintain all Environmental Permits required by Hazardous Materials Laws and comply with all conditions of such Environmental Permits; (ii) cooperate with any inquiry by any Governmental Authority; and (iii) comply with any governmental or judicial order that arises from any alleged Prohibited Activity or Condition. |
| (j) | Borrower shall indemnify, hold harmless and defend (i) Lender, including any custodian, trustee and any other fiduciaries who hold or have held a full or partial interest in the Loan for the benefit of third parties, (ii) any prior owner or holder of the Note, (iii) the Loan Servicer, (iv) any prior Loan Servicer, (v) the officers, directors, shareholders, partners, employees and trustees of any of the foregoing, and (vi) the heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns of each of the foregoing (collectively, the “Indemnitees”) from and against all proceedings, claims, damages, penalties and costs (whether initiated or sought by Governmental Authorities or private parties), including Attorneys’ Fees and Costs and remediation costs, whether incurred in connection with any judicial or administrative process or otherwise, arising directly or indirectly from any of the following: |
| (i) | any breach of any representation or warranty of Borrower in this Section 18; |
| (ii) | any failure by Borrower to perform any of its obligations under this Section 18; |
| (iii) | the existence or alleged existence of any Prohibited Activity or Condition; |
| (iv) | the presence or alleged presence of Hazardous Materials on or under the Mortgaged Property or in any of the Improvements; and |
| (v) | the actual or alleged violation of any Hazardous Materials Law. |
| (k) | Counsel selected by Borrower to defend Indemnitees shall be subject to the approval of those Indemnitees. In any circumstances in which the indemnity under this Section 18 applies, Lender may employ its own legal counsel and consultants to prosecute, defend or negotiate any claim or legal or administrative proceeding and Lender, with the prior written consent of Borrower (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) may settle or compromise any action or legal or administrative proceeding. However, unless an Event of |
Page 35
| Default has occurred and is continuing, or the interests of Borrower and Lender are in conflict, as determined by Lender in its discretion, Lender shall permit Borrower to undertake the actions referenced in this Section 18 in accordance with this Section 18(k) and Section 18(l) so long as Lender approves such action, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Borrower shall reimburse Lender upon demand for all costs and expenses incurred by Lender, including all costs of settlements entered into in good faith, consultants’ fees and Attorneys’ Fees and Costs. |
| (l) | Borrower shall not, without the prior written consent of those Indemnitees who are named as parties to a claim or legal or administrative proceeding (a “Claim”), settle or compromise the Claim if the settlement (i) results in the entry of any judgment that does not include as an unconditional term the delivery by the claimant or plaintiff to Lender of a written release of those Indemnitees, satisfactory in form and substance to Lender; or (ii) may materially and adversely affect Lender, as determined by Lender in its discretion. |
| (m) | Borrower’s obligation to indemnify the Indemnitees shall not be limited or impaired by any of the following, or by any failure of Borrower or any guarantor to receive notice of or consideration for any of the following: |
| (i) | any amendment or modification of any Loan Document; |
| (ii) | any extensions of time for performance required by any Loan Document; |
| (iii) | any provision in any of the Loan Documents limiting Lender’s recourse to property securing the Indebtedness, or limiting the personal liability of Borrower or any other party for payment of all or any part of the Indebtedness; |
| (iv) | the accuracy or inaccuracy of any representations and warranties made by Borrower under this Instrument or any other Loan Document; |
| (v) | the release of Borrower or any other Person, by Lender or by operation of law, from performance of any obligation under any Loan Document; |
| (vi) | the release or substitution in whole or in part of any security for the Indebtedness; and |
| (vii) | Lender’s failure to properly perfect any lien or security interest given as security for the Indebtedness. |
| (n) | Borrower shall, at its own cost and expense, do all of the following: |
| (i) | pay or satisfy any judgment or decree that may be entered against any Indemnitee or Indemnitees in any legal or administrative proceeding |
Page 36
| incident to any matters against which Indemnitees are entitled to be indemnified under this Section 18; |
| (ii) | reimburse Indemnitees for any expenses paid or incurred in connection with any matters against which Indemnitees are entitled to be indemnified under this Section 18; and |
| (iii) | reimburse Indemnitees for any and all expenses, including Attorneys’ Fees and Costs, paid or incurred in connection with the enforcement by Indemnitees of their rights under this Section 18, or in monitoring and participating in any legal or administrative proceeding. |
| (o) | The provisions of this Section 18 shall be in addition to any and all other obligations and liabilities that Borrower may have under applicable law or under other Loan Documents, and each Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification under this Section 18 without regard to whether Lender or that Indemnitee has exercised any rights against the Mortgaged Property or any other security, pursued any rights against any guarantor, or pursued any other rights available under the Loan Documents or applicable law. If Borrower consists of more than one Person, the obligation of those Persons to indemnify the Indemnitees under this Section 18 shall be joint and several. The obligation of Borrower to indemnify the Indemnitees under this Section 18 shall survive any repayment or discharge of the Indebtedness, any foreclosure proceeding, any foreclosure sale, any delivery of any deed in lieu of foreclosure, and any release of record of the lien of this Instrument. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Lender has never been a mortgagee-in-possession of, or held title to, the Mortgaged Property, Borrower shall have no obligation to indemnify the Indemnitees under this Section 18 after the date of the release of record of the lien of this Instrument by payment in full at the Maturity Date or by voluntary prepayment in full. |
| 19. | PROPERTY AND LIABILITY INSURANCE. |
| (a) | At all times during the term hereof, Borrower shall maintain, at its sole cost and expense, for the mutual benefit of Borrower and Lender, the following policies of insurance: |
| (i) | Insurance against any peril included within the classification “All Risks of Physical Loss” with extended coverage in amounts at all times sufficient to prevent Borrower from becoming a co-insurer within the terms of the applicable policies, but in any event such insurance shall be maintained in an amount equal to the full insurable value of the Mortgaged Property. The policy referred to in this Section 19 shall contain a replacement cost endorsement and a waiver of depreciation. As used in this Instrument, “full insurable value” means the actual replacement cost of the Improvements and Personalty (without taking into account any |
Page 37
| depreciation), determined annually by an insurer or by Borrower or, at the request of Lender, by an insurance broker (subject to Lender’s reasonable approval). In all cases where any of the Improvements or the use of the Mortgaged Property shall at any time constitute legal non-conforming structures or uses under applicable legal requirements of any Governmental Authority, the policy referred to in this Section 19 must include “Ordinance and Law Coverage,” with “Time Element,” “Loss to the Undamaged Portion of the Building,” “Demolition Cost” and “Increased Cost of Construction” endorsements, in the amount of coverage required by Lender; |
| (ii) | Commercial general liability insurance, including contractual injury, bodily injury, broad form death and property damage liability against any and all claims, including all legal liability to the extent insurable imposed upon Borrower and all Attorneys’ Fees and Costs, arising out of or connected with the possession, use, leasing, operation, maintenance or condition of the Mortgaged Property with a combined limit of not less than $2,000,000 in the aggregate and $1,000,000 per occurrence, plus umbrella or excess liability coverage with minimum limits in the aggregate and per occurrence of $1,000,000 for Improvements that have 1 to 3 stories and an additional $2,000,000 in coverage for each additional story with maximum required coverage of $10,000,000, plus motor vehicle liability coverage for all owned and non-owned vehicles (including, without limitation, rented and leased vehicles) containing minimum limits per occurrence, including umbrella coverage, of $1,000,000; |
| (iii) | Statutory workers’ compensation insurance; |
| (iv) | Business interruption including loss of rental value insurance for the Mortgaged Property in an amount equal to not less than twelve (12) months’ estimated gross Rents attributable to the Mortgaged Property and based on gross Rents for the immediately preceding year and otherwise sufficient to avoid any co-insurance penalty with a 90 day extended period of indemnity (but a minimum of eighteen (18) months’ estimated gross Rents attributable to the Mortgaged Property and based on gross Rents for the immediately preceding year and otherwise sufficient to avoid any co-insurance penalty with a 90 day extended period of indemnity when (A) the Improvements have 5 or more stories or (B) at all times during which the Indebtedness is equal to or greater than $50,000,000); |
| (v) | If any portion of the Improvements are located within a federally designated flood hazard zone, flood insurance in an amount equal to the full insurable value of the portion of such Improvements within such flood hazard zone. Such coverage may need to be purchased through excess |
Page 38
| carriers if the required coverage exceeds the maximum insurance allowed under the federal flood insurance program; |
| (vi) | Insurance against loss or damage from (A) leakage of sprinkler systems and (B) explosion of steam boilers, air conditioning equipment, pressure vessels or similar apparatus now or hereafter installed at the Mortgaged Property, in such amounts as Lender may from time to time reasonably require and which are customarily required by institutional lenders with respect to similar properties similarly situated; |
| (vii) | The insurance required under clauses (i) and (iv) above shall cover perils of terrorism and acts of terrorism and Borrower shall maintain commercial property insurance for loss resulting from perils and acts of terrorism on terms (including amounts) consistent with those required under clauses (i) and (iv) above at all times during the term of the Loan evidenced by the Note; |
| (viii) | During any period of Restoration, builder’s “all risk” insurance in an amount equal to not less than the full insurable value of the Property against such risks (including fire and extended coverage and collapse of the Improvements to agreed limits) as Lender may request, in form and substance acceptable to Lender; and |
| (ix) | Such other insurance with respect to the Improvements and Personalty located on the Property against loss or damage as required by Lender (including, without limitation, liquor/dramshop, Mold, hurricane, windstorm and earthquake insurance) provided such insurance is of the kind for risks from time to time customarily insured against and in such minimum coverage amounts and maximum deductibles as are generally required by institutional lenders for properties comparable to the Mortgaged Property or which Lender may deem necessary in its reasonable discretion; provided, however, if Lender requires earthquake insurance, the amount of coverage must be equal to 150% of the probable maximum loss for the Mortgaged Property but Lender shall not require earthquake insurance if the probable maximum loss for the Mortgaged Property is less than 20%. In the event any updated reports or other documentation are reasonably required by Lender in order to determine whether such additional insurance is necessary or prudent, Borrower shall pay for all such documentation at its sole cost and expense. |
All insurance required pursuant to Subsections (i) and Subsections (iv) through (ix) shall be referred to as “Hazard Insurance”.
| (b) | All premiums on insurance policies required under Section 19(a) shall be paid in the manner provided in Section 7, unless Lender has designated in writing another |
Page 39
| method of payment. All such policies shall also be in a form approved by Lender. All policies of Hazard Insurance must include a non-contributing, non-reporting mortgagee clause in favor of, and in a form approved by, Lender. All policies for general liability insurance must contain a standard additional insured provision, in favor of, and in a form approved by Lender. Borrower shall deliver to Lender a legible copy of each insurance policy (or duplicate original), and Borrower shall promptly deliver to Lender a copy of all renewal and other notices received by Borrower with respect to the policies and all receipts for paid premiums. At least 30 days prior to the expiration date of any insurance policy, Borrower shall deliver to Lender evidence acceptable to Lender that the policy has been renewed. If Borrower has not delivered a legible copy of each renewal policy (or a duplicate original) prior to the expiration date of any insurance policy, Borrower shall deliver a legible copy of each renewal policy (or a duplicate original), in a form satisfactory to Lender, no later than the earlier of (i) the date that is 60 days after the expiration date of the original policy, or (ii) the date of any notice to Lender under Subsection (f) below. |
| (c) | Borrower will maintain the insurance coverage described in this Section 19 with companies acceptable to Lender and with a rated claims paying ability of at least (i) “A-” or its equivalent by Fitch, Inc., (ii) “A-” or its equivalent by Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services, a division of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., (iii) “A3” or its equivalent by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or (iv) “A” for financial strength and “VIII” for financial size, or their equivalents, by A.M. Best Company. All insurers providing insurance required by this Instrument must be authorized to issue insurance in the Property Jurisdiction. |
| (d) | All insurance policies and renewals of insurance policies required by this Section 19 shall be for such periods as Lender may from time to time require. |
| (e) | Borrower shall comply with all insurance requirements and shall not permit any condition to exist on the Mortgaged Property that would invalidate any part of any insurance coverage that this Instrument requires Borrower to maintain. |
| (f) | In the event of loss, Borrower shall give immediate written notice to the insurance carrier and to Lender. Borrower hereby authorizes and appoints Lender as attorney in fact for Borrower to make proof of loss, to adjust and compromise any claims under policies of Hazard Insurance, to appear in and prosecute any action arising from such Hazard Insurance policies, to collect and receive the proceeds of Hazard Insurance, to hold the proceeds of Hazard Insurance, and to deduct from such proceeds Lender’s expenses incurred in the collection of such proceeds. This power of attorney is coupled with an interest and therefore is irrevocable. However, nothing contained in this Section 19 shall require Lender to incur any expense or take any action. Lender may, at Lender’s option, (i) require a “repair or replacement” settlement, in which case the proceeds will be used to reimburse Borrower for the cost of restoring and repairing the Mortgaged Property to the |

| equivalent of its original condition or to a condition approved by Lender (the “Restoration”), or (ii) require an “actual cash value” settlement in which case the proceeds may be applied to the payment of the Indebtedness, whether or not then due. To the extent Lender determines to require a repair or replacement settlement and apply insurance proceeds to Restoration, Lender shall apply the proceeds in accordance with Lender’s then-current policies relating to the restoration of casualty damage on similar multifamily properties. |
| (g) | Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Section 19, as long as no Event of Default, or any event which, with the giving of Notice or the passage of time, or both, would constitute an Event of Default, has occurred and is continuing, |
| (i) | in the event of a casualty resulting in damage to the Mortgaged Property which will cost $142,500.00 or less to repair, the Borrower shall have the sole right to make proof of loss, adjust and compromise the claim and collect and receive any proceeds directly without the approval or prior consent of the Lender so long as the insurance proceeds are used solely for the Restoration of the Mortgaged Property; and |
| (ii) | in the event of a casualty resulting in damage to the Mortgaged Property which will cost more than $142,500.00 but less than $570,000.00 to repair, the Borrower is authorized to make proof of loss and adjust and compromise the claim without the prior consent of Lender, and Lender shall hold the applicable insurance proceeds to be used to reimburse Borrower for the cost of Restoration of the Mortgaged Property and shall not apply such proceeds to the payment of sums due under this Instrument. |
| (h) | Lender will have the right to exercise its option to apply insurance proceeds to the payment of the Indebtedness only if Lender determines that at least one of the following conditions is met: |
| (i) | an Event of Default (or any event, which, with the giving of Notice or the passage of time, or both, would constitute an Event of Default) has occurred and is continuing; |
| (ii) | Lender determines, in its discretion, that there will not be sufficient funds from insurance proceeds, anticipated contributions of Borrower of its own funds or other sources acceptable to Lender to complete the Restoration; |
| (iii) | Lender determines, in its discretion, that the rental income from the Mortgaged Property after completion of the Restoration will not be sufficient to meet all operating costs and other expenses, Imposition Deposits, deposits to reserves and Loan repayment obligations relating to the Mortgaged Property; |
Page 41
| (iv) | Lender determines, in its discretion, that the Restoration will not be completed by the earlier of (A) at least one year before the Maturity Date (or six months before the Maturity Date if Lender determines in its discretion that re-leasing of the Mortgaged Property will be completed within such six-month period) or (B) the expiration of the business interruption coverage; |
| (v) | Lender determines that the Restoration will not be completed within one year after the date of the loss or casualty; |
| (vi) | the casualty involved an actual or constructive loss of more than 30% of the fair market value of the Mortgaged Property, and rendered untenantable more than 30% of the residential units of the Mortgaged Property; |
| (vii) | after Restoration the fair market value of the Mortgaged Property is expected to be less than the fair market value of the Mortgaged Property immediately prior to such casualty (assuming the affected portion of the Mortgaged Property is relet within a reasonable period after the date of such casualty); or |
| (viii) | during and after the completion of the Restoration less than 35% of the Leases covering the residential units of the Mortgaged Property will remain in full force and effect. |
| (i) | If the Mortgaged Property is sold at a foreclosure sale or Lender acquires title to the Mortgaged Property, Lender shall automatically succeed to all rights of Borrower in and to any insurance policies and unearned insurance premiums and in and to the proceeds resulting from any damage to the Mortgaged Property prior to such sale or acquisition. |
| (j) | Unless Lender otherwise agrees in writing, any application of any insurance proceeds to the Indebtedness shall not extend or postpone the due date of any monthly installments referred to in the Note, Section 7 of this Instrument or any Collateral Agreement, or change the amount of such installments. |
| (k) | Borrower agrees to execute such further evidence of assignment of any insurance proceeds as Lender may require. |
| 20. | CONDEMNATION. |
| (a) | Borrower shall promptly notify Lender in writing of any action or proceeding or notice relating to any proposed or actual condemnation or other taking, or conveyance in lieu thereof, of all or any part of the Mortgaged Property, whether |
Page 42
| direct or indirect (a “Condemnation”). Borrower shall appear in and prosecute or defend any action or proceeding relating to any Condemnation unless otherwise directed by Lender in writing. Borrower authorizes and appoints Lender as attorney in fact for Borrower to commence, appear in and prosecute, in Lender’s or Borrower’s name, any action or proceeding relating to any Condemnation and to settle or compromise any claim in connection with any Condemnation, after consultation with Borrower and consistent with commercially reasonable standards of a prudent lender. This power of attorney is coupled with an interest and therefore is irrevocable. However, nothing contained in this Section 20 shall require Lender to incur any expense or take any action. Borrower hereby transfers and assigns to Lender all right, title and interest of Borrower in and to any award or payment with respect to (i) any Condemnation, or any conveyance in lieu of Condemnation, and (ii) any damage to the Mortgaged Property caused by governmental action that does not result in a Condemnation. |
| (b) | Lender may hold such awards or proceeds and apply such awards or proceeds, after the deduction of Lender’s expenses incurred in the collection of such amounts (including Attorneys’ Fees and Costs) at Lender’s option, to the restoration or repair of the Mortgaged Property or to the payment of the Indebtedness, with the balance, if any, to Borrower. Unless Lender otherwise agrees in writing, any application of any awards or proceeds to the Indebtedness shall not extend or postpone the due date of any monthly installments referred to in the Note, Section 7 of this Instrument or any Collateral Agreement, or change the amount of such installments. Borrower agrees to execute such further evidence of assignment of any awards or proceeds as Lender may require. |
| (c) | Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Section 20, but subject to Section 20(e) below, in the event of a partial Condemnation of the Mortgaged Property, as long as no Event of Default, or any event which, with the giving of Notice or the passage of time, or both, would constitute an Event of Default, has occurred and is continuing, in the event of a partial Condemnation resulting in proceeds or awards in the amount of less than $100,000, the Borrower shall have the sole right to make proof of loss, adjust and compromise the claim and collect and receive any proceeds directly without the approval or prior consent of the Lender so long as the proceeds or awards are used solely for the Restoration of the Mortgaged Property. |
| (d) | In the event of a partial Condemnation of the Mortgaged Property resulting in proceeds or awards in the amount of $100,000 or more and subject to Section 20(e) below, Lender will have the right to exercise its option to apply Condemnation proceeds to the payment of the Indebtedness only if Lender determines that at least one of the following conditions is met: |
Page 43
| (i) | an Event of Default (or any event, which, with the giving of Notice or the passage of time, or both, would constitute an Event of Default) has occurred and is continuing; |
| (ii) | Lender determines, in its discretion, that there will not be sufficient funds from Condemnation proceeds, anticipated contributions of Borrower of its own funds or other sources acceptable to Lender to complete the Restoration; |
| (iii) | Lender determines, in its discretion, that the rental income from the Mortgaged Property after completion of the Restoration will not be sufficient to meet all operating costs and other expenses, Imposition Deposits, deposits to reserves and Loan repayment obligations relating to the Mortgaged Property; |
| (iv) | Lender determines, in its discretion, that the Restoration will not be completed at least one year before the Maturity Date (or six months before the Maturity Date if Lender determines in its discretion that re-leasing of the Mortgaged Property will be completed within such six-month period); |
| (v) | Lender determines that the Restoration will not be completed within one year after the date of the Condemnation; |
| (vi) | the Condemnation involved an actual or constructive loss of more than 15% of the fair market value of the Mortgaged Property, and rendered untenantable more than 25% of the residential units of the Mortgaged Property; |
| (vii) | after Restoration the fair market value of the Mortgaged Property is expected to be less than the fair market value of the Mortgaged Property immediately prior to the Condemnation (assuming the affected portion of the Mortgaged Property is relet within a reasonable period after the date of the Condemnation); or |
| (viii) | during and after the completion of the Restoration less than 35% of the Leases covering the residential units of the Mortgaged Property will remain in full force and effect. |
| (e) | Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Instrument, including this Section 20, during any period that the Loan or any portion of the Loan is included in a Securitization, if any portion of the Mortgaged Property is released from the lien of the Loan in connection with a Condemnation and if the ratio of (i) the unpaid principal balance of the Loan to (ii) the value of the remaining Mortgaged Property, as determined by Lender in its sole discretion based on a commercially reasonable valuation method, is greater than 125% immediately after such release and before any restoration or repair of the Mortgaged Property |
Page 44
| (but taking into account any planned restoration or repair of the Mortgaged Property as if such planned restoration or repair were completed), the principal balance of the Loan must be paid down by the least of the following amounts: (i) the net proceeds or awards from such Condemnation, (ii) the fair market value of the released portion of the Mortgaged Property at the time of the release, or (iii) an amount such that the loan-to-value ratio of the Loan (as determined by Lender in its sole discretion) does not increase after the release, unless Lender shall have received an opinion of counsel, satisfactory to Lender, that a different application of such net proceeds or awards will not cause such Securitization to fail to maintain its status as a REMIC as a result of such release and application. |
| (f) | If the Mortgaged Property is sold at a foreclosure sale or Lender acquires title to the Mortgaged Property, Lender shall automatically succeed to all rights of Borrower in and to any Condemnation proceeds and awards prior to such sale or acquisition. |
| (g) | Borrower agrees to execute such further evidence of assignment of any Condemnation proceeds as Lender may require. |
| 21. | TRANSFERS OF THE MORTGAGED PROPERTY OR INTERESTS IN BORROWER. [RIGHT TO UNLIMITED TRANSFERS — WITH LENDER APPROVAL]. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 21, no Transfer will be permitted under this Section 21 unless the provisions of Section 33 are satisfied. |

| (a) | Lender may (but shall not be obligated to) agree with Borrower, from time to time, and without giving notice to, or obtaining the consent of, or having any effect upon the obligations of, any guarantor or other third party obligor, to take any of the following actions: extend the time for payment of all or any part of the Indebtedness; reduce the payments due under this Instrument, the Note, or any other Loan Document; release anyone liable for the payment of any amounts under this Instrument, the Note, or any other Loan Document; accept a renewal of the Note; modify the terms and time of payment of the Indebtedness; join in any extension or subordination agreement; release any Mortgaged Property; take or release other or additional security; modify the rate of interest or period of amortization of the Note or change the amount of the monthly installments payable under the Note; and otherwise modify this Instrument, the Note, or any other Loan Document. |
| (b) | Any forbearance by Lender in exercising any right or remedy under the Note, this Instrument, or any other Loan Document or otherwise afforded by applicable law, shall not be a waiver of or preclude the exercise of any other right or remedy, or the subsequent exercise of any right or remedy. The acceptance by Lender of payment of all or any part of the Indebtedness after the due date of such payment, or in an amount which is less than the required payment, shall not be a waiver of Lender’s right to require prompt payment when due of all other payments on account of the Indebtedness or to exercise any remedies for any failure to make prompt payment. Enforcement by Lender of any security for the Indebtedness shall not constitute an election by Lender of remedies so as to preclude the exercise of any other right available to Lender. Lender’s receipt of any awards or proceeds under Sections 19 and 20 shall not operate to cure or waive any Event of Default. |
| 25. | LOAN CHARGES. If any applicable law limiting the amount of interest or other charges permitted to be collected from Borrower is interpreted so that any charge provided for in any Loan Document, whether considered separately or together with other charges levied in connection with any other Loan Document, violates that law, and Borrower is entitled to the benefit of that law, that charge is hereby reduced to the extent necessary to eliminate that violation. The amounts, if any, previously paid to Lender in excess of the permitted amounts shall be applied by Lender to reduce the principal of the Indebtedness. For the purpose of determining whether any applicable law limiting the amount of interest or other charges permitted to be collected from Borrower has been violated, all Indebtedness which constitutes interest, as well as all other charges levied in connection with the Indebtedness which constitute interest, shall be deemed to be allocated and spread over the stated term of the Note. Unless otherwise required by applicable law, such allocation and spreading shall be effected in such a manner that the rate of interest so computed is uniform throughout the stated term of the Note. |
| 26. | WAIVER OF STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS, OFFSETS, AND COUNTERCLAIMS. Borrower hereby waives the right to assert any statute of |
Page 55
| limitations as a bar to the enforcement of the lien of this Instrument or to any action brought to enforce any Loan Document. Borrower hereby waives the right to assert a counterclaim, other than a compulsory counterclaim, in any action or proceeding brought against it by Lender or otherwise to offset any obligations to make the payments required by the Loan Documents. No failure by Lender to perform any of its obligations hereunder shall be a valid defense to, or result in any offset against, any payments that Borrower is obligated to make under any of the Loan Documents. |
| 27. | WAIVER OF MARSHALLING. Notwithstanding the existence of any other security interests in the Mortgaged Property held by Lender or by any other party, Lender shall have the right to determine the order in which any or all of the Mortgaged Property shall be subjected to the remedies provided in this Instrument, the Note, any other Loan Document or applicable law. Lender shall have the right to determine the order in which any or all portions of the Indebtedness are satisfied from the proceeds realized upon the exercise of such remedies. Borrower and any party who now or in the future acquires a security interest in the Mortgaged Property and who has actual or constructive notice of this Instrument waives any and all right to require the marshalling of assets or to require that any of the Mortgaged Property be sold in the inverse order of alienation or that any of the Mortgaged Property be sold in parcels or as an entirety in connection with the exercise of any of the remedies permitted by applicable law or provided in this Instrument. |
| 28. | FURTHER ASSURANCES; LENDER’S EXPENSES. Borrower shall execute, acknowledge, and deliver, at its sole cost and expense, all further acts, deeds, conveyances, assignments, estoppel certificates, financing statements or amendments, transfers and assurances as Lender may require from time to time in order to better assure, grant, and convey to Lender the rights intended to be granted, now or in the future, to Lender under this Instrument and the Loan Documents. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that, in connection with each request by Borrower under this Instrument or any Loan Document, Borrower shall pay all reasonable Attorneys’ Fees and Costs and expenses incurred by Lender, including any fees charged by the Rating Agencies, regardless of whether the matter is approved, denied or withdrawn. Any amounts payable by Borrower hereunder shall be deemed a part of the Indebtedness, shall be secured by this Instrument and shall bear interest at the Default Rate if not fully paid within ten (10) days of written demand for payment. |
| 29. | ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATE. Within 10 days after a request from Lender, Borrower shall deliver to Lender a written statement, signed and acknowledged by Borrower, certifying to Lender or any Person designated by Lender, as of the date of such statement, (i) that the Loan Documents are unmodified and in full force and effect (or, if there have been modifications, that the Loan Documents are in full force and effect as modified and setting forth such modifications); (ii) the unpaid principal balance of the Note; (iii) the date to which interest under the Note has been paid; (iv) that Borrower is not in default in paying the Indebtedness or in performing or observing any of the covenants or agreements contained in this Instrument or any of the other Loan Documents (or, if the |
Page 56
| Borrower is in default, describing such default in reasonable detail); (v) whether or not there are then existing any setoffs or defenses known to Borrower against the enforcement of any right or remedy of Lender under the Loan Documents; and (vi) any additional facts requested by Lender. |
| 30. | GOVERNING LAW; CONSENT TO JURISDICTION AND VENUE. |
| (a) | This Instrument, and any Loan Document which does not itself expressly identify the law that is to apply to it, shall be governed by the laws of the jurisdiction in which the Land is located (the “Property Jurisdiction”). |
| (b) | Borrower agrees that any controversy arising under or in relation to the Note, this Instrument, or any other Loan Document may be litigated in the Property Jurisdiction. The state and federal courts and authorities with jurisdiction in the Property Jurisdiction shall have jurisdiction over all controversies that shall arise under or in relation to the Note, any security for the Indebtedness, or any other Loan Document. Borrower irrevocably consents to service, jurisdiction, and venue of such courts for any such litigation and waives any other venue to which it might be entitled by virtue of domicile, habitual residence or otherwise. However, nothing in this Section 30 is intended to limit Lender’s right to bring any suit, action or proceeding relating to matters under this Instrument in any court of any other jurisdiction. |
| 31. | NOTICE. |
| (a) | All Notices, demands and other communications (“Notice”) under or concerning this Instrument shall be in writing. Each Notice shall be addressed to the intended recipient at its address set forth in this Instrument, and shall be deemed given on the earliest to occur of (i) the date when the Notice is received by the addressee; (ii) the first Business Day after the Notice is delivered to a recognized overnight courier service, with arrangements made for payment of charges for next Business Day delivery; or (iii) the third Business Day after the Notice is deposited in the United States mail with postage prepaid, certified mail, return receipt requested. |
| (b) | Any party to this Instrument may change the address to which Notices intended for it are to be directed by means of Notice given to the other party in accordance with this Section 31. Each party agrees that it will not refuse or reject delivery of any Notice given in accordance with this Section 31, that it will acknowledge, in writing, the receipt of any Notice upon request by the other party and that any Notice rejected or refused by it shall be deemed for purposes of this Section 31 to have been received by the rejecting party on the date so refused or rejected, as conclusively established by the records of the U.S. Postal Service or the courier service. |
| (c) | Any Notice under the Note and any other Loan Document that does not specify how Notices are to be given shall be given in accordance with this Section 31. |
Page 57
| 32. | SALE OF NOTE; CHANGE IN SERVICER; LOAN SERVICING. The Note or a partial interest in the Note (together with this Instrument and the other Loan Documents) may be sold one or more times without prior Notice to Borrower. A sale may result in a change of the Loan Servicer. There also may be one or more changes of the Loan Servicer unrelated to a sale of the Note. If there is a change of the Loan Servicer, Borrower will be given Notice of the change. All actions regarding the servicing of the Loan evidenced by the Note, including the collection of payments, the giving and receipt of Notice, inspections of the Mortgaged Property, inspections of books and records, and the granting of consents and approvals, may be taken by the Loan Servicer unless Borrower receives Notice to the contrary. If Borrower receives conflicting Notices regarding the identity of the Loan Servicer or any other subject, any such Notice from Lender shall govern. |
| 33. | SINGLE PURPOSE ENTITY. |
| (a) | Until the Indebtedness is paid in full, each Borrower and SPE Equity Owner shall remain a Single Purpose Entity. |
| (b) | A “Single Purpose Entity” means a corporation, limited partnership, or limited liability company which, at all times since its formation and thereafter: |
| (i) | shall not engage in any business or activity, other than the ownership, operation and maintenance of the Mortgaged Property and activities incidental thereto; |
| (ii) | shall not acquire, own, hold, lease, operate, manage, maintain, develop or improve any assets other than the Mortgaged Property and such Personalty as may be necessary for the operation of the Mortgaged Property and shall conduct and operate its business as presently conducted and operated; |

Page 59
| its Affiliate provided that (A) appropriate notation shall be made on such consolidated financial statements to indicate the separateness of the Borrower from such Affiliate and to indicate that the Borrower’s assets and credit are not available to satisfy the debts and other obligations of such Affiliate or any other Person and (B) such assets shall also be listed on the Borrower’s own separate balance sheet; |
| (xii) | except for capital contributions or capital distributions permitted under the terms and conditions of its organizational documents, shall only enter into any contract or agreement with any general partner, member, shareholder, principal or Affiliate of Borrower or any guarantor, or any general partner, member, principal or Affiliate thereof, upon terms and conditions that are commercially reasonable and substantially similar to those that would be available on an arm’s-length basis with third parties; |
| (xiii) | shall not maintain its assets in such a manner that will be costly or difficult to segregate, ascertain or identify its individual assets from those of any other Person; |

If the springing member is a corporation, such springing member shall at all times comply, and will cause Borrower to comply, with each of the representations, warranties and covenants contained in this Section 33 as if such representation, warranty or covenant were made directly by such corporation. If there is more than one springing member, only one springing member shall be the sole member of Borrower at any one time, and the second springing member shall become the sole member only upon the first springing member ceasing to be a member, so that at all times Borrower has one and only one member; |

| (i) | With respect to Sections 33(b)(i) and 33(b)(x) the SPE Equity Owner shall not engage in any business or activity other than being the sole managing member or general partner, as the case may be, of the Borrower and owning at least a 0.5% equity interest in Borrower; |

| (d) | [INTENTIONALLY DELETED] |
| (e) | Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Instrument, no Transfer will be permitted under Sections 21(c), (d), (e) or (f) unless the provisions of this Section 33 are satisfied at all times. |
| 34. | SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS BOUND. This Instrument shall bind, and the rights granted by this Instrument shall inure to, the respective successors and assigns of Lender and Borrower. However, a Transfer not permitted by Section 21 shall be an Event of Default. |
| 35. | JOINT AND SEVERAL LIABILITY. If more than one Person signs this Instrument as Borrower, the obligations of such Persons shall be joint and several. |
| 36. | RELATIONSHIP OF PARTIES; NO THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARY. |
| (a) | The relationship between Lender and Borrower shall be solely that of creditor and debtor, respectively, and nothing contained in this Instrument shall create any other relationship between Lender and Borrower. |
| (b) | No creditor of any party to this Instrument and no other Person shall be a third party beneficiary of this Instrument or any other Loan Document. Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, (i) any arrangement (a “Servicing Arrangement”) between the Lender and any Loan Servicer for loss sharing or interim advancement of funds shall constitute a contractual obligation of such Loan Servicer that is independent of the obligation of Borrower for the payment of the Indebtedness, (ii) Borrower shall not be a third party beneficiary of any Servicing Arrangement, and (iii) no payment by the Loan Servicer under any Servicing Arrangement will reduce the amount of the Indebtedness. |
| 37. | SEVERABILITY; AMENDMENTS. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Instrument shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision, and all other provisions shall remain in full force and effect. This Instrument contains the entire agreement among the parties as to the rights granted and the |
Page 63
| obligations assumed in this Instrument. This Instrument may not be amended or modified except by a writing signed by the party against whom enforcement is sought; provided, however, that in the event of a Transfer prohibited by or requiring Lender’s approval under Section 21, any or some or all of the Modifications to Instrument set forth in Exhibit B (if any) may be modified or rendered void by Lender at Lender’s option by Notice to Borrower and the transferee(s). |
| 38. | CONSTRUCTION. The captions and headings of the Sections of this Instrument are for convenience only and shall be disregarded in construing this Instrument. Any reference in this Instrument to an “Exhibit” or a “Section” shall, unless otherwise explicitly provided, be construed as referring, respectively, to an Exhibit attached to this Instrument or to a Section of this Instrument. All Exhibits attached to or referred to in this Instrument are incorporated by reference into this Instrument. Any reference in this Instrument to a statute or regulation shall be construed as referring to that statute or regulation as amended from time to time. Use of the singular in this Agreement includes the plural and use of the plural includes the singular. As used in this Instrument, the term “including” means “including, but not limited to.” |
| 39. | DISSEMINATION OF INFORMATION. Borrower acknowledges that Lender may provide to third parties with an existing or prospective interest in the servicing, enforcement, evaluation, performance, ownership, purchase, participation or Securitization of the Loan, including, without limitation, any of the Rating Agencies, any entity maintaining databases on the underwriting and performance of commercial mortgage loans, as well as governmental regulatory agencies having regulatory authority over Lender, any and all information which Lender now has or may hereafter acquire relating to the Loan, the Mortgaged Property, Borrower, any SPE Equity Owner or any guarantor, as Lender determines necessary or desirable and that such information may be included in disclosure documents in connection with a Securitization or syndication of participation interests, including, without limitation, a prospectus, prospectus supplement, offering memorandum, private placement memorandum or similar document (each, a “Disclosure Document”) and also may be included in any filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Act or the Securities Exchange Act. To the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, Borrower irrevocably waives all rights, if any, to prohibit such disclosure, including, without limitation, any right of privacy. |
| 40. | NO CHANGE IN FACTS OR CIRCUMSTANCES. Borrower warrants that (a) all information in the application for the Loan submitted to Lender (the “Loan Application”) and in all financial statements, Rent Schedules, reports, certificates and other documents submitted in connection with the Loan Application are complete and accurate in all material respects; and (b) there has been no material adverse change in any fact or circumstance that would make any such information incomplete or inaccurate. |
| 41. | SUBROGATION. If, and to the extent that, the proceeds of the Loan evidenced by the Note, or subsequent advances under Section 12, are used to pay, satisfy or discharge a Prior Lien, such Loan proceeds or advances shall be deemed to have been advanced by |
Page 64
| Lender at Borrower’s request, and Lender shall automatically, and without further action on its part, be subrogated to the rights, including lien priority, of the owner or holder of the obligation secured by the Prior Lien, whether or not the Prior Lien is released. |
| 42. | [INTENTIONALLY DELETED] |
| 43. | SUPPLEMENTAL FINANCING. |
| (a) | This Section shall apply only if at the time of any application referred to below, the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“Freddie Mac”) has in effect a product described in its Multifamily Seller/Servicer Guide under which it purchases supplemental mortgages on multifamily properties that meet specified criteria (a “Supplemental Mortgage Product”). |
| (b) | After the first anniversary of the date of this Instrument (the “First Mortgage”), Freddie Mac will consider an application from an originating lender that is generally approved by Freddie Mac to sell mortgages to Freddie Mac under the Supplemental Mortgage Product (an “Approved Seller/Servicer”) for the purchase by Freddie Mac of a proposed indebtedness of Borrower to the Approved Seller/Servicer to be secured by one or more supplemental mortgages on the Mortgaged Property (such indebtedness and supplemental mortgages being referred to together as a “Supplemental Mortgage”). Freddie Mac will purchase each Supplemental Mortgage secured by the Mortgaged Property if the following conditions are satisfied: |
| (i) | At the time of the proposed Supplemental Mortgage, no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and no event or condition shall have occurred and be continuing that, with the giving of Notice or the passage of time, or both, would become an Event of Default; |
| (ii) | Borrower, the Mortgaged Property and the proposed Supplemental Mortgage must be acceptable to Freddie Mac under its then-current Supplemental Mortgage Product; |
| (iii) | New loan documents must be entered into to reflect each Supplemental Mortgage, such documents to be acceptable to Freddie Mac in its sole discretion; |
| (iv) | Each Supplemental Mortgage will not cause the combined debt service coverage ratio of the Mortgaged Property after each Supplemental Mortgage to be less than 1.25:1, subject to increase in accordance with Freddie Mac’s then-current policies (“Required DSCR”), as determined by Freddie Mac. As used in this Section, the term “combined debt service coverage ratio” means, with respect to the Mortgaged Property, the ratio of (A) the annual net operating income from the operations of the Mortgaged Property at the time of the proposed Supplemental Mortgage to |
Page 65
| (B) the aggregate of the annual principal and interest payable on (I) the Indebtedness under this Instrument (using a 30-year amortization schedule), (II) any “Indebtedness” as defined in any security instruments recorded against the Mortgaged Property (using a 30-year amortization schedule for any Supplemental Mortgages) and (III) the proposed “Indebtedness” for any Supplemental Mortgage (using a 30-year amortization schedule). The annual net operating income of the Mortgaged Property will be as determined by Freddie Mac in its sole discretion considering factors such as income in place at the time of the proposed Supplemental Mortgage and income during the preceding twelve (12) months, and actual, historical and anticipated operating expenses. Freddie Mac shall determine the combined debt service coverage ratio of the Mortgaged Property based on its underwriting. Borrower shall provide Freddie Mac such financial statements and other information Freddie Mac may require to make these determinations; |
| (v) | Each Supplemental Mortgage will not cause the combined loan to value ratio of the Mortgaged Property after each Supplemental Mortgage to exceed seventy-seven percent (77%), subject to decrease in accordance with Freddie Mac’s then-current policies (“Required LTV”), as determined by Freddie Mac. As used in this Section, “combined loan to value ratio” means, with respect to the Mortgaged Property, the ratio, expressed as a percentage, of (A) the aggregate outstanding principal balances of (I) the Indebtedness under this Instrument, (II) any “Indebtedness” as defined in any security instruments recorded against the Mortgaged Property and (III) the proposed “Indebtedness” for any Supplemental Mortgage, to (B) the value of the Mortgaged Property. Freddie Mac shall determine the combined loan to value ratio of the Mortgaged Property based on its underwriting. Borrower shall provide Freddie Mac such financial statements and other information Freddie Mac may require to make these determinations. In addition, Freddie Mac, at Borrower’s expense, may obtain MAI appraisals of the Mortgaged Property in order to assist Freddie Mac in making the determinations hereunder. If Freddie Mac requires an appraisal, then the value of the Mortgaged Property that will be used to determine whether the Required LTV has been met shall be the lesser of (A) the appraised value set forth in such appraisal or (B) the value of the Mortgaged Property as determined by Freddie Mac; |
| (vi) | The Borrower’s organizational documents are amended to permit the Borrower to incur additional debt in the form of Supplemental Mortgages (Lender shall consent to such amendment(s)); |
| (vii) | One or more natural persons or entities acceptable to Freddie Mac executes and delivers to the Approved Seller/Servicer a guaranty in a form |
Page 66
| acceptable to Freddie Mac with respect to the exceptions to non-recourse liability described in Freddie Mac’s form promissory note, unless Freddie Mac has elected to waive its requirement for a guaranty; |
| (viii) | The loan term of each Supplemental Mortgage shall be coterminous with the First Mortgage or longer than the First Mortgage, including any “Extension Period” described in the Note secured by the First Mortgage, at Freddie Mac’s discretion; |
| (ix) | The Prepayment Premium Period (as defined in the Note) of each Supplemental Mortgage shall be coterminous with the Prepayment Premium Period or the combined Lockout Period and Defeasance Period (all, as defined in the Note), as applicable, of the First Mortgage; |
| (x) | The interest rate of each Supplemental Mortgage will be determined by Freddie Mac in its sole and absolute discretion; |
| (xi) | The Lender enters into an intercreditor agreement (“Intercreditor Agreement”) acceptable to Freddie Mac and to Lender for each Supplemental Mortgage; |
| (xii) | Borrower’s payment of fees and other expenses charged by Lender, Freddie Mac, the Approved Seller/Servicer, and the Rating Agencies (including reasonable Attorneys’ Fees and Costs) in connection with reviewing and originating each Supplemental Mortgage; |
| (xiii) | Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 7 of this Instrument, Borrower shall make deposits under this First Mortgage for the payment of any Impositions, so long as a Supplemental Mortgage is outstanding, and such deposits shall be credited to the payment of such Impositions under any Supplemental Mortgage; and |
| (xiv) | All other requirements of the Supplemental Mortgage Product must be met, unless Freddie Mac has elected to waive one or more of its requirements. |
| (c) | No later than 5 Business Days after Lender’s receipt of a written request from Borrower, Lender shall provide the following information to an Approved Seller/Servicer upon Borrower’s written request. Lender shall only be obligated to provide this information in connection with Borrower’s request for a Supplemental Mortgage from an Approved Seller/Servicer; provided, however, if Freddie Mac is the owner of the Note, Lender shall not be obligated to provide such information: |
| (i) | the then-current outstanding principal balance of the First Mortgage; |
Page 67
| (ii) | payment history of the First Mortgage; |
| (iii) | whether taxes, insurance, ground rents, replacement reserves, repair escrows, or other escrows are being collected on the First Mortgage and the amount of each such escrow as of the date of the request; |
| (iv) | whether any repairs, capital replacements or improvements or rental achievement or burn-off guaranty requirements are existing or outstanding under the terms of the First Mortgage; |
| (v) | a copy of the most recent inspection report for the Mortgaged Property; |
| (vi) | whether any modifications or amendments have been made to the Loan Documents for the First Mortgage since origination of the First Mortgage and, if applicable, a copy of such modifications and amendments; and |
| (vii) | whether to Lender’s knowledge any Event of Default exists under the First Mortgage. |
| (d) | Lender shall have no obligation to consent to any mortgage or lien on the Mortgaged Property that secures any indebtedness other than the Indebtedness, except as set forth herein. |

| 44. | DEFEASANCE (Section Applies if Loan is Assigned to REMIC Trust Prior to the Cut-off Date). This Section 44 shall apply in the event the Note is assigned to a REMIC trust prior to the Cut-off Date, and, subject to Section 44(a) and (c) below, Borrower shall have the right to defease the Loan in whole (“Defeasance”) and obtain the release of the Mortgaged Property from the lien of this Instrument upon the satisfaction of the following conditions: |
| (a) | Borrower shall not have the right to obtain Defeasance at any of the following times: |
| (i) | if the Loan is not assigned to a REMIC trust; |
| (ii) | during the Lockout Period (as defined in the Note); |
| (iii) | after the expiration of the Defeasance Period (as defined in the Note); or |
Page 68
| (iv) | after Lender has accelerated the maturity of the unpaid principal balance of, accrued interest on, and other amounts payable under, the Note pursuant to Section 6 of the Note. |
| (b) | Borrower shall give Lender Notice (the “Defeasance Notice”) specifying a Business Day (the “Defeasance Closing Date”) on which Borrower desires to close the Defeasance. The Defeasance Closing Date specified by Borrower may not be more than 60 calendar days, nor less than 30 calendar days, after the date on which the Defeasance Notice is received by Lender. Lender will acknowledge receipt of the Defeasance Notice and will state in such receipt whether Lender will designate the Successor Borrower or will permit Borrower to designate the Successor Borrower. |
| (c) | The Defeasance Notice must be accompanied by a $10,000 non-refundable fee (the “Defeasance Fee”). If Lender does not receive the Defeasance Fee, then Borrower’s right to obtain Defeasance pursuant to that Defeasance Notice shall terminate. |
| (d) | (i) | If Borrower timely pays the Defeasance Fee, but Borrower fails to perform its other obligations hereunder, Lender shall have the right to retain the Defeasance Fee as liquidated damages for Borrower’s default and, except as provided in Section 44(d)(ii), Borrower shall be released from all further obligations under this Section 44. Borrower acknowledges that Lender will incur financing costs in arranging and preparing for the release of the Mortgaged Property from the lien of this Instrument in reliance on the executed Defeasance Notice. Borrower agrees that the Defeasance Fee represents a fair and reasonable estimate, taking into account all circumstances existing on the date of this Instrument, of the damages Lender will incur by reason of Borrower’s default. |
| (ii) | In the event that the Defeasance is not consummated on the Defeasance Closing Date for any reason, Borrower agrees to reimburse Lender for all third party costs and expenses (other than financing costs covered by Section 44(d)(i) above) incurred by Lender in reliance on the executed Defeasance Notice, within 5 Business Days after Borrower receives a written demand for payment, accompanied by a statement, in reasonable detail, of Lender’s third party costs and expenses. |
| (iii) | All payments required to be made by Borrower to Lender pursuant to this Section 44 shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account(s) designated by Lender in its acknowledgement of the Defeasance Notice. |
| (e) | No Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. |
Page 69

| (ii) | an opinion of counsel for Borrower, in form and substance satisfactory to Lender, to the effect that the Pledge Agreement is duly authorized, executed, delivered and enforceable against Borrower in accordance with the respective terms; |

| (iv) | unless waived by Lender or unless Lender designates the Successor Borrower, an opinion of counsel for Successor Borrower, in form and substance satisfactory to Lender, to the effect that the Successor Borrower has been validly created; |
| (v) | if Borrower designates the Successor Borrower, an opinion of counsel for Successor Borrower, in form and substance satisfactory to Lender and to any Rating Agencies then providing ongoing ratings with respect to any Securitization, with regard to nonconsolidation of the assets of the Successor Borrower with those of its Affiliates by a bankruptcy court; |
| (vi) | unless waived by Lender, an opinion of counsel for Borrower, in form and substance satisfactory to Lender, to the effect that: |
| (A) | if, as of the Defeasance Closing Date, the Note is held by a REMIC trust, (1) the Defeasance has been effected in accordance with the requirements of Treasury Regulation Section 1.860G-2(a)(8) (as such regulation may be modified, amended or replaced from time to time), (2) the qualification and status of the REMIC trust as a REMIC will not be adversely affected or impaired as a result of the Defeasance, and (3) the REMIC trust will not incur a tax under Section 860G(d) of the Tax Code as a result of the Defeasance, and |
Page 70
| (B) | the Defeasance will not result in a “sale or exchange” of the Note within the meaning of Section 1001(c) of the Tax Code and the temporary and final regulations promulgated thereunder; |
| (vii) | unless waived by Lender, a written certificate from an independent certified public accounting firm (reasonably acceptable to Lender), confirming that the Defeasance Collateral will generate cash sufficient to make all Scheduled Debt Payments as they fall due under the Note, including full payment due on the Note on the Maturity Date; |
| (viii) | Lender’s form of a pledge and security agreement (“Pledge Agreement”) and financing statements which pledge and create a first priority security interest in the Defeasance Collateral in favor of Lender; |
| (ix) | Lender’s form of a transfer and assumption agreement (“Transfer and Assumption Agreement”), whereupon Borrower and any guarantor (in each case, subject to satisfaction of all requirements hereunder) shall be relieved from liability in connection with the Loan (other than any liability under Section 18 of this Instrument for events that occur prior to the Defeasance Closing Date, whether discovered before or after the Defeasance Closing Date) and Successor Borrower shall assume all remaining obligations; |
| (x) | Forms of all documents necessary to release the Mortgaged Property from the liens created by this Instrument and related UCC financing statements (collectively, “Release Instruments”), each in appropriate form required by the state in which the Property is located; and |
| (xi) | such other opinions, certificates, documents or instruments as Lender may reasonably request. |
| (g) | Borrower shall deliver to Lender on or prior to the Defeasance Closing Date: |
| (i) | The Defeasance Collateral which meets all requirements of Section 44(g)(ii) below and is owned by Borrower, free and clear of all liens and claims of third-parties; |
| (ii) | The Defeasance Collateral must be in an amount to provide for (A) redemption payments to occur prior, but as close as possible, to all successive Installment Due Dates occurring under the Note after the Defeasance Closing Date and (B) deliver redemption proceeds at least equal to the amount of principal and interest due on the Note on each Installment Due Date including full payment due on the Note on the Maturity Date (“Scheduled Debt Payments”). The Defeasance Collateral shall be arranged such that redemption payments received from the Defeasance Collateral are paid directly to Lender to be applied on account |
Page 71
| of the Scheduled Debt Payments. Unless otherwise agreed in writing by Lender, the pledge of the Defeasance Collateral shall be effectuated through the book-entry facilities of a qualified securities intermediary designated by Lender in conformity with all applicable laws; and |
| (iii) | All accrued and unpaid interest and all other sums due under the Note, this Instrument and under the other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, all amounts due under Section 44(i) below, up to the Defeasance Closing Date shall be paid in full on or prior to the Defeasance Closing Date. |
| (h) | If Lender permits Borrower to designate the Successor Borrower, then Borrower shall, at Borrower’s expense, designate or establish an accommodation borrower (“Successor Borrower”) satisfactory to Lender (or Lender, at its option, may designate the Successor Borrower) which satisfies Lender’s then current requirements for a “Single Purpose Entity” to assume at the time of Defeasance ownership of the Defeasance Collateral and liability for all of Borrower’s obligations under the Pledge Agreement and the Loan Documents (to the extent that liability thereunder survives release of this Instrument). Borrower shall pay to Successor Borrower a fee of $1,000.00 as consideration of Successor Borrower’s assumption of Borrower’s obligations under the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereunder, no Transfer fee is payable to Lender upon a Transfer of the Loan in accordance with this Section. |
| (i) | Borrower shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with the Defeasance in full on or prior to the Defeasance Closing Date, which payment is required prior to Lender’s issuance of the Release Instruments and whether or not Defeasance is completed. Such expenses include, without limitation, all fees, costs and expenses incurred by Lender and its agents in connection with the Defeasance (including, without limitation, reasonable Attorneys’ Fees and Costs for the review and preparation of the Pledge Agreement and of the other materials described herein and any related documentation, and any servicing fees, Rating Agencies’ fees or other costs related to the Defeasance); reasonable Attorneys’ Fees and Costs; and a processing fee to cover Lender’s administrative costs to process Borrower’s Defeasance request. Lender reserves the right to require that Borrower post a deposit to cover costs which Lender reasonably anticipates will be incurred. |
| 45. | INTENTIONALLY DELETED. |
| 46. | LENDER’S RIGHTS TO SELL OR SECURITIZE. Borrower acknowledges that Lender, and each successor to Lender’s interest, may (without prior Notice to Borrower or Borrower’s prior consent), sell or grant participations in the Loan (or any part thereof), sell or subcontract the servicing rights related to the Loan, securitize the Loan or include the Loan as part of a trust. Borrower, at its expense, agrees to cooperate with all |
Page 72
| reasonable requests of Lender in connection with any of the foregoing including, without limitation, executing any financing statements or other documents deemed necessary by Lender or its transferee to create, perfect or preserve the rights and interest to be acquired by such transferee, providing any updated financial information with appropriate verification through auditors letters, delivering revised organizational documents and counsel opinions satisfactory to the Rating Agencies, executed amendments to the Loan Documents, and review information contained in a preliminary or final private placement memorandum, prospectus, prospectus supplements or other Disclosure Document, and providing a mortgagor estoppel certificate and such other information about Borrower, any SPE Equity Owner, any guarantor, any Property Manager or the Mortgaged Property as Lender may require for Lender’s offering materials. |

(Revised 2-15-2011)
The following modifications are made to the Instrument which precedes this Rider:
| 1. | The first sentence in Section 19(c) is deleted and replaced with the following: |
Borrower will maintain the insurance coverage described in this Section 19 with companies acceptable to Lender and with a claims paying ability of a minimum of any of the following (i) “A-” or its equivalent by Fitch, Inc., (ii) “A-” or its equivalent by Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services, a division of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., or (iii) “A3” or its equivalent by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc.

| 2. | The following Section 45 is added as follows: |
SPLITTING THE NOTE.
| (a) | Lender has the right from time to time to sever the Note into one or more separate promissory notes in such denominations as Lender determines in its sole discretion, which promissory notes may be included in separate sales or Securitizations undertaken by Lender. In conjunction with any such action, Lender may redefine the interest rate and amortization schedule; provided however |
| (i) | if Lender redefines the interest rate, the weighted average of the interest rates contained in the severed promissory notes taken in the aggregate shall equal the Fixed Interest Rate (as defined in the Note), and |
| (ii) | if Lender redefines the amortization schedule, the amortization of the severed promissory notes taken in the aggregate shall require no more amortization to be paid under the Loan than as required under this Instrument and the Note at the time such action was taken by Lender and such redefined amortization shall not result in a change in the amount of the monthly payment due under the Note. |
PAGE B-1-1
| (b) | Borrower shall only be required to make one payment under such separate promissory notes. Subject to the foregoing, each severed promissory note, and the Loan evidenced thereby, shall be upon all of the terms and provisions contained in this Instrument and the Loan Documents which continue in full force and effect, except that Lender may allocate specific collateral given for the Loan as security for performance of specific promissory notes, in each case with or without cross default provisions. |
| (c) | Borrower, at Borrower’s expense, agrees to cooperate with all reasonable requests of Lender to accomplish the foregoing, including, without limitation, execution and prompt delivery to Lender of a severance agreement and such other documents as Lender shall reasonable require. |
| (d) | Borrower hereby appoints Lender its attorney-in-fact with full power of substitution (which appointment shall be deemed to be coupled with an interest and irrevocable until the Loan is paid and this Instrument is discharged of record, with Borrower hereby ratifying all that its said attorney shall do by virtue thereof) to make and execute all documents necessary or desirable to effect the aforesaid severance; provided however, Lender shall not make or execute any such documents under such power until 10 Business Days after Lender has given Borrower Notice of Lender’s intent to exercise its rights under such power. |
| (e) | Borrower’s failure to deliver any of the documents requested by Lender hereunder for a period of 10 Business Days after such Notice by Lender shall, at Lender’s option, constitute an Event of Default hereunder. |
| 3. | Section 49 of this Instrument is deleted and replaced with the following: |
SALE OF NOTE AND SECURITIZATION.

| (ii) | Borrower authorizes and appoints Lender as attorney in fact for Borrower to make proof of loss, to adjust and compromise any claims under policies |
Page B-2-8
| of Hazard Insurance, to appear in and prosecute any action arising from such Hazard Insurance policies, to collect and receive the proceeds of Hazard Insurance, to hold the proceeds of Hazard Insurance, and to deduct from such proceeds Lender’s expenses incurred in the collection of such proceeds. This power of attorney is coupled with an interest and therefore is irrevocable. However, nothing contained in this Section 19 will require Lender to incur any expense or take any action. Lender may, at Lender’s option, take one of the following actions: |
| (A) | Require a “repair or replacement” settlement, in which case the proceeds will be used to reimburse Borrower for the cost of restoring and repairing the Mortgaged Property to the equivalent of its original condition or to a condition approved by Lender (“Restoration”). If Lender determines to require a repair or replacement settlement and to apply Insurance proceeds to Restoration, Lender will apply the proceeds in accordance with Lender’s then-current policies relating to the Restoration of casualty damage on similar multifamily properties. |
| (B) | Require an “actual cash value” settlement in which case the proceeds may be applied to the payment of the Indebtedness, whether or not then due. |
| (iii) | Subject to Section 19(j), Borrower may take the following actions: |
| (A) | If a casualty results in damage to the Mortgaged Property for which the cost of Repairs will be $142,500.00 or less, Borrower will have the sole right to make proof of loss, adjust and compromise the claim and collect and receive any proceeds directly without the approval or prior consent of Lender so long as the Insurance proceeds are used solely for the Restoration of the Mortgaged Property. |
| (B) | If a casualty results in damage to the Mortgaged Property for which the cost of Repairs will be more than $142,500.00 but less than $570,000.00, Borrower is authorized to make proof of loss and adjust and compromise the claim without the prior consent of Lender, and Lender will hold the applicable Insurance proceeds to be used to reimburse Borrower for the cost of Restoration of the Mortgaged Property and will not apply such proceeds to the payment of the Indebtedness. |
| (j) | Right to Apply Insurance Proceeds to Indebtedness. Lender will have the right to apply Insurance proceeds to the payment of the Indebtedness if Lender determines, in Lender’s Discretion, that any of the following conditions are met: |
Page B-2-9
| (i) | An Event of Default (or any event, which, with the giving of Notice or the passage of time, or both, would constitute an Event of Default) has occurred and is continuing. |
| (ii) | There will not be sufficient funds from Insurance proceeds, anticipated contributions of Borrower of its own funds or other sources acceptable to Lender to complete the Restoration. |
| (iii) | The rental income from the Mortgaged Property after completion of the Restoration will not be sufficient to meet all operating costs and other expenses, deposits to reserves and Loan repayment obligations relating to the Mortgaged Property. |
| (iv) | The Restoration will not be completed by the earlier of (A) at least one year before the Maturity Date (or 6 months before the Maturity Date if re-leasing of the Mortgaged Property will be completed within such 6 month period) or (B) the expiration of the business interruption coverage. |
| (v) | The Restoration will not be completed within one year after the date of the loss or casualty. |
| (vi) | The casualty involved an actual or constructive loss of more than 30% of the fair market value of the Mortgaged Property, and rendered untenantable more than 30% of the residential units of the Mortgaged Property. |
| (vii) | After completion of the Restoration the fair market value of the Mortgaged Property is expected to be less than the fair market value of the Mortgaged Property immediately prior to such casualty (assuming the affected portion of the Mortgaged Property is relet within a reasonable period after the date of such casualty). |
| (viii) | Leases covering less than 35% of the residential units of the Mortgaged Property will remain in full force and effect during and after the completion of Restoration. |
| (k) | Succession to Insurance Policies. If the Mortgaged Property is sold at a foreclosure sale or Lender acquires title to the Mortgaged Property, Lender will automatically succeed to all rights of Borrower in and to any Insurance policies and unearned Insurance premiums and in and to the proceeds resulting from any damage to the Mortgaged Property prior to such sale or acquisition. |
| (l) | Payment of Premiums After Application of Insurance Proceeds. Unless Lender otherwise agrees in writing, any application of any Insurance proceeds to the Indebtedness will not extend or postpone the due date of any monthly installments referred to in the Note, Section 7 of this Instrument or change the amount of such installments. |
Page B-2-10
| (m) | Assignment of Insurance Proceeds. Borrower agrees to execute such further evidence of assignment of any Insurance proceeds as Lender may require. |
| D. | Loans Equal to or Greater than $25,000,000. If the Rider to Security Instrument (CME) – Additional Provisions for Loans Equal to or Greater than $25,000,000 (the “$25MM Rider”) is attached to the Instrument, then Item 1 of the $25MM Rider is hereby deleted and replaced with the following: |
