If, under or from any circumstances whatsoever, fulfillment of any provision hereof or in any of the Loan Documents at the time of performance of such provision shall be due, (i) shall involve transcending a limit of such validity prescribed by applicable law, then the obligation to be fulfilled will automatically be reduced to the limit of such validity, and (ii) shall ever cause the Lender to receive an interest amount which would exceed the highest lawful rate, then such portion of the interest payment which would be classified as excessive interest instead shall be applied to the reduction of the principal balance evidenced hereby and not to the payment of interest. This provision shall control every other provision of all agreements between the Borrowers and the Lender.

SECTION 9.2. Remedies.

SECTION 9.2.1. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, the Lender shall have the right to take one or more of the following actions: (i) by notice to the Borrowers terminate the Commitment and it shall thereupon terminate, (ii) declare the Advances (together with accrued interest and all other Obligations including any other charges thereon) to be, and the Advances and such other Obligations shall thereupon become, immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by the Borrowers; provided that in the case of any of the Events of Default specified in Section 9.1.6, without any notice to the Borrowers or any other act by the Lender, the Commitment shall thereupon terminate and the Advances (together with accrued interest thereon and all other Obligations) shall become immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by the Borrowers.

SECTION 9.2.2. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, the Lender shall have as to any Collateral all other rights and remedies provided for herein and all rights and remedies of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the State of New York and, in addition thereto and not in lieu thereof, all other rights or remedies at law or in equity existing or conferred upon the Lender by other jurisdictions or other applicable law or given to the Lender pursuant to any security agreement, other instrument or agreement heretofore, now, or hereafter given as security for the Borrowers’ obligations hereunder.

SECTION 9.2.3. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default,

(i) The Lender may apply the cash, if any, then held by it in the, Operating Account or as otherwise held by the Lender as Collateral to the payment of all outstanding Obligations.

(ii) The Lender shall have the right, without any further action or consent of the Borrowers to immediately direct the issuer of any Security to identify the Lender or its designee on its books and records as the record, legal and beneficial owner of the Collateral in full substitution of the Borrowers. The Lender or its designee shall thereafter have the sole right to exercise all rights, privileges, options and powers relating to the Collateral, including the right to receive any and all distributions and cash distributions as to any Collateral.

(iii) In the exercise of such rights and remedies, the Lender may, without notice except as specified below, sell the Collateral or any part thereof at one or more public or private sales held at any of the Lender’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and upon such other terms as the Lender may deem reasonable. The Borrowers agree that any private sale may result in prices and other terms less favorable then if such sale were a public sale. The Borrowers agree that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at least ten (10) days’ prior notice to the Borrowers of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. The Lender shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Lender may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned.

(iv) To the extent any Collateral is so saleable, the Lender may sell the Collateral at any broker’s board or on any securities exchange.

(v) The Lender agrees not to seize or sell the Data Files separate and apart from the remainder of the Collateral. If the Lender is selling the Data Files it will give the Borrowers a reasonable opportunity at the Borrowers’ expense to make a copy of any data contained on such Data Files (provided that the Borrowers may not alter, delete, corrupt or destroy any data remaining on such Data Files and that such copying must be completed prior to the date set by the Lender for the sale of the Data Files in its notice of sale under the UCC). The Borrowers hereby agree to give the Lender or its agents or designees unrestricted access to the Data Files such that the Lender is able to assess the value of the Collateral and to enforce its remedies pursuant to Section 9.

(vi) In any public or private sale of any of the Collateral, the Lender is authorized to comply with any limitation or restriction in connection with such sale as it may be advised by counsel is necessary in order to comply with, or otherwise avoid any violation of applicable law regarding any public or private sale, including any required approval of the sale or of the purchaser by any governmental regulatory authority or official. Such compliance shall not result in such sale being considered or deemed not to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner. The Lender shall not be liable or accountable to the Borrowers for any price reduction resulting from, or expense incurred as a result of, the Lender’s compliance with any such limitation or restriction. The Lender shall be under no obligation to delay any sale of any of the Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit the Borrowers to register such Collateral for public sale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended from time to time, or under applicable state securities laws.

(vii) Upon any such sale, the Lender shall have the right to deliver, assign and transfer to the purchaser thereof the Collateral so sold. Each purchaser at any such sale shall hold the property sold, absolutely free from any claim or right of the Borrowers of any kind, including any equity or right of redemption of the Borrowers, and the Borrowers hereby specifically waive all rights of redemption, stay or appraisal which they have or may have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter adopted.

(viii) At any public or private sale the Collateral may be sold in one lot as an entirety or in separate portions, as the Lender may determine.

(ix) In case of any sale of all or any part of the Collateral on credit or for future delivery, the Collateral so sold may be retained by the Lender until the selling price is paid by the purchaser thereof, but the Lender shall not incur any liability in case of the failure of such purchaser to take delivery of and pay for the Collateral so sold and, in case of any such failure, such Collateral may again be sold as provided herein.

(x) Nothing contained in this Agreement shall prohibit the Lender from purchasing the Collateral at such sale.

(xi) No remedy or right of the Lender hereunder or otherwise available under applicable law or in equity, shall be exclusive of any other right or remedy. Each such remedy or right shall be in addition to every other remedy or right now or hereafter existing under applicable law or in equity. No delay in the exercise of, or omission to exercise, any remedy or right after any Event of Default shall impair any such remedy or right or be construed as a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence thereto, nor shall it affect any subsequent Event of Default of the same or different nature. Every remedy or right may be exercised concurrently or independently and when and as often as may be deemed necessary by the Lender.

SECTION 9.2.4. The Lender shall not incur any liability as a result of the sale of the Collateral, or any part thereof, at any public or private sale. The Borrowers hereby waive any claims it may have against the Lender arising by reason of the fact that the price at which the Collateral may have been sold at such private sale was less than the price which might have been obtained at a public sale or was less than the aggregate amount of the Obligations then outstanding.

SECTION 9.2.5. The Borrowers waive any right to require the Lender to (i) proceed against any Person, (ii) proceed against or exhaust any of the Collateral, marshal assets or otherwise pursue its rights and remedies as against the Collateral in any particular order or (iii) pursue any other remedy in its power. The Lender shall not be required to take any steps necessary to preserve any rights of the Borrowers against holders of mortgages prior in lien to the lien of any Mortgage included in the Pledged Mortgages.

SECTION 9.2.6. The Lender may, but shall not be obligated to, advance any sums or do any act or thing necessary to uphold and enforce the lien and priority of, or the security intended to be afforded by, any Pledged Mortgage, including payment of delinquent taxes or assessments and insurance premiums. All advances, charges, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys fees (for which the Lender shall provide an accounting), incurred or paid by the Lender in exercising any right, power or remedy conferred by this Agreement, or in the enforcement hereof together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the time of payment until repaid, shall become a part of the Obligations.

SECTION 9.2.7. No failure on the part of the Lender to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise by the Lender of any right, power or remedy hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and are not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

SECTION 10.

LENDER APPOINTED ATTORNEY-IN-FACT

The Lender is hereby appointed the attorney-in-fact of each Borrower for the purpose of carrying out the provisions hereof and taking any action and executing any instruments which the Lender may deem reasonably necessary to accomplish the purposes hereof with respect to the Collateral after the occurrence of an Event of Default, which appointment as attorney-in-fact is irrevocable and coupled with an interest. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing after the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Lender shall have the right and power to receive, endorse and collect all checks made payable to the order of the Borrowers representing any payment on account of the principal of or interest on any of the Pledged Mortgages or Securities and to give full discharge for the same.

In addition, at the request of the assigning Lender and any such Assignee, the Borrowers shall issue one or more new promissory notes, as applicable, to any such Assignee and, if such assigning Lender has retained any of its rights and obligations hereunder following such assignment, to such assigning Lender, which new promissory notes shall be issued in replacement of, but not in discharge of, the liability evidenced by the promissory note held by such assigning Lender prior to such assignment and shall reflect the amount of the respective Commitments and Advances held by such Assignee and assigning Lender after giving effect to such assignment. Upon the execution and delivery of the Assignment Documents in connection with an assignment, and the payment by Assignee of the purchase price agreed to by such assigning Lender and such Assignee, such Assignee shall be a party to this Agreement and shall have all of the rights and obligations of the Lender hereunder (and under any and all other Guaranties, documents, instruments and agreements executed in connection herewith) to the extent that such rights and obligations have been assigned by such assigning Lender pursuant to the assignment documentation between such assigning Lender and such Assignee, and such assigning Lender shall be released from its obligations hereunder and thereunder to a corresponding extent.

In the event of any such grant by the Lender of a participation interest to a Participant, whether or not upon notice to the Borrowers, the Lender shall remain responsible for the performance of its obligations hereunder and the Borrowers shall continue to deal solely and directly with the Lender in connection with the Lender’s rights and obligations hereunder. Lender may furnish any information concerning the Borrowers in its possession from time to time to prospective Participants, provided that the Lender shall require any such prospective Participant to agree in writing to maintain the confidentiality of such information.

The Lender or the Borrowers may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it by electronic mail pursuant to procedures approved by it, provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications. Unless the Lender otherwise prescribes, notices and other communications sent to an electronic mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgment from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return electronic mail or other written acknowledgment), provided that if such notice or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next Business Day for the recipient.

The Borrowers will pay all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Lender in connection with the initial preparation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Credit Note, and any other agreements or documents referred to herein or therein, and the Borrowers shall pay on demand all expenses of the Lender in connection with the preparation, administration, default, collection, waiver or amendment of loan terms or in connection with the Lender’s exercise, preservation, or enforcement of any of its rights, remedies or options hereunder, including reasonable fees of outside legal counsel or the allocated costs of in-house legal counsel, accounting, consulting, brokerage or other similar professional fees or expenses, and any fees or expenses associated with travel or other costs relating to any appraisals or examinations conducted in connection with the Advances or any Collateral therefor, and the amount of all such expenses shall, until paid, bear interest at the rate applicable to principal hereunder (including any Default Rate) and be an obligation secured by the Collateral; provided, however, that in the absence of the existence of the Default hereunder, the Borrowers shall have no liability for audit fees; provided, however, that there shall be no limitation on each Borrower’s obligations with respect to audit expenses during any period in which a Default exists and is continuing. In addition to the foregoing, the Borrowers shall pay on demand all expenses of each of the Lender arising during the existence of a Default related to the enforcement of any Lender’s rights or such other action by the Lender to preserve or realize on any Collateral. The Borrowers hereby authorize the Lender, at any time during the term of this Agreement, to make Advances in the amount of any such fees or expenses described in this Section 12.2.

SECTION 12.3. Applicable Law.

This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the State of New York.

SECTION 12.4. Amendments and Waivers. This Agreement may not be amended, modified or supplemented unless the amendment, modification or supplement is set forth in a writing signed by both Borrower and Lender.

SECTION 12.5. Non-Waiver of Rights by the Lender.

Neither any failure nor any delay on the part of the Lender in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.

SECTION 12.6. Setoff.

Subject to the second paragraph in this Section 12.6, the Borrowers hereby grant to the Lender a continuing security interest and right of setoff as security for all of the Obligations of the Borrowers to the Lender, whether now existing or hereafter arising, upon and against all deposits, credits, collateral and property now or hereafter in the possession, custody, safekeeping or control of Lender or any Lender or any entity under the control of the Lender and their respective successors and assigns or in transit to any of them. ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO REQUIRE THE LENDER TO EXERCISE ITS RIGHTS OR REMEDIES WITH RESPECT TO ANY OTHER COLLATERAL WHICH SECURES THE ADVANCES PRIOR TO EXERCISING ITS RIGHTS OF SETOFF, OR LIEN WITH RESPECT TO SUCH DEPOSITS, CREDITS OR OTHER PROPERTY OF THE BORROWER IS HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVED.

If a Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Lender shall have the right, at any time and from time to time without notice to the Borrowers, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to set-off and to appropriate or apply any and all deposits of money or property or any other indebtedness at any time held or owing by the Lender or any of its affiliates to or for the credit of the account of the Borrowers against and on account of all outstanding Obligations then due hereunder and all other obligations and liabilities of the Borrowers to the Lender or any of its affiliates, irrespective of whether or not the Lender shall have made demand hereunder, whether or not such Obligations and liabilities shall have matured, and regardless of the adequacy of the Lender’s other Collateral; provided, however, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, neither the Lender nor any of its affiliates shall setoff, appropriate or apply any funds which are held in the Excepted Accounts.

SECTION 12.9. Relationship of the Parties.

This Agreement provides for the making of Advances by the Lender, in its capacity as lender, to the Borrowers, in their capacity as borrowers, and for the payment of interest, repayment of principal by the Borrowers to the Lender, and for the payment of certain fees by the Borrowers to the Lender. The relationship between the Lender and the Borrowers is limited to that of creditors/secured party, on the one hand, and debtors, on the other hand. The provisions herein for compliance with financial covenants and delivery of financial statements are intended solely for the benefit of the Lender (and their respective successors and assigns, including any Assignee or Participant) to protect its interests as lender in assuring payments of interest and repayment of principal and payment of certain fees, and nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed as permitting or obligating the Lender to act as a financial or business advisor or consultant to the Borrowers, as permitting or obligating the Lender to control the Borrowers or to conduct each Borrower’s operations, as creating any fiduciary obligation on the part of the Lender to the Borrowers, or as creating any joint venture, agency, or other relationship between the parties hereto other than as explicitly and specifically stated in this Agreement. Each Borrower acknowledges that it has had the opportunity to obtain the advice of experienced counsel of its own choosing in connection with the negotiation and execution of this Agreement and to obtain the advice of such counsel with respect to all matters contained herein, including the provision for waiver of trial by jury.
