Lender hereby agrees to lend up to but not in excess of the Loan Amount to Borrower, and Borrower hereby agrees to borrow such sum from Lender, all upon and subject to the terms and provisions of this Agreement, such sum to be evidenced by the Note. Borrower's liability for repayment of the interest on account of the Loan shall be limited to and calculated with respect to Loan proceeds actually disbursed to Borrower pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the Note and only from the date or dates of such disbursements.

15
 

 

Section 2.2.          Promise to Pay and Perform; Time of Essence. Borrower will pay the Indebtedness as and when specified in the Note and the other Loan Documents, and will perform and discharge all of the Obligations, in full and on or before the date same are to be performed.

Section 2.3.          Intentionally Deleted.

Section 2.4.          Intentionally Deleted.

Section 2.5.          Loan Limitation. If, as a result of the occurrence of a Material Adverse Change, any test appraisal is required or desired by Lender, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Office of Comptroller of Currency or any other governmental entity or quasi-governmental entity which has the authority and power to regulate the business and other activities of Lender ("Regulatory Authority"), Borrower shall, within sixty (60) days following a request therefor by Lender, furnish to Lender (at Borrower's sole cost and expense) an appraisal in form, substance and by an appraising firm acceptable to Lender and, if applicable, the Regulatory Authority requiring such appraisal pursuant to this Section 2.5, provided that Borrower shall not be required to furnish more than one (1) such test appraisal in any calendar year (not including any request from a Regulatory Authority to furnish such test appraisal). In the event Borrower should fail to timely provide an acceptable appraisal of the Mortgaged Property pursuant to this Section, then, and in such event, Lender shall be entitled to obtain its own appraisal of the Mortgaged Property at Borrower's cost and expense. Lender shall further be entitled, at any time, to obtain an appraisal on its own, and at its own expense, and any such appraisal obtained by Lender may be utilized by Lender (even in lieu of other available appraisals) to undertake the loan-to-value calculations described below.

Section 2.6.          Equity Requirements. Borrower shall have funded all Borrower equity requirements from Borrower's equity funds including, an amount equal to the greatest of (1) $2,745,996.00, (2) fifteen (15%) of the amount of the Project Costs or (iii) the Project Costs less the Loan Amount..

Section 2.7.          Not Revolver. This Loan facility is not intended, in whole or in part, to be "revolving" in nature and it is expressly agreed that no principal amount repaid by Borrower may be reborrowed by Borrower.

Section 2.8.          Replacement Reserve.

(a)                Borrower shall establish and maintain a replacement reserve (the "Replacement Reserve") with Lender as additional security for the Indebtedness and Obligations. Commencing on the first Payment Date (as defined in the Note) and continuing thereafter on each successive Payment Date until the Maturity Date, Borrower shall pay to Lender, concurrently with the monthly payment due under the Note, a deposit to the Replacement Reserve in an amount equal to the quotient of (i) Zero and 25/100 Dollars ($0.25) per square foot of the Improvements (excluding any rentable square feet for which tenants of the Improvements are responsible for maintaining the structure of such Improvements) divided by (ii) twelve (12). Lender shall have the right to review the amount of the Replacement Reserve annually and to assess, in its sole discretion, whether the amount deposited into the Replacement Reserve needs to be increased or decreased.

16
 

 

(b)               The Replacement Reserve is established for the payment of costs and expenses as may be incurred by Borrower for Repairs. So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (i) all sums in the Replacement Reserve shall be held by Lender in the Replacement Reserve to pay the costs and expenses of Repairs, and (ii) Lender shall, to the extent funds are available for such purpose in the Replacement Reserve, disburse to Borrower, as Lender may approve, in Lender's reasonable discretion, amounts paid or incurred by Borrower and performing such Repairs within ten (10) days following: (a) the receipt by Lender of a written request from Borrower for a disbursement from the Replacement Reserve and a certification from Borrower to Lender that the applicable item of Repair has been completed; (b) the delivery to Lender of invoices, receipts of other evidence verifying the cost of performing such Repairs; and (c) in the case of a disbursement request from the Replacement Reserve in excess of $25,000 with respect to any single Repair, delivery to Lender of (1) affidavits, lien waivers or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to Lender showing that all materialmen, laborers, subcontractors and any other parties who might or could claim statutory or common law liens and are furnishing or have furnished materials or labor to the Property have been paid all amounts due for labor and materials furnished to the Property; and (2) a new (or amended) certificate of occupancy for the portion of the Improvements covered by such Repairs, if said new certificate of occupancy is required by law, or a certification by Borrower that no new certificate of occupancy is required by law. Lender shall not be required or requested to make advances from the Replacement Reserve more frequently than one time in any calendar month. In making any payment from the Replacement Reserve, Lender shall be entitled to rely on such request from Borrower without any inquiry into the accuracy, validity or contestability of any such amount.

(c)                Lender may, at Borrower's expense, make or cause to be made an inspection of the Mortgaged Property to determine the adequacy of the scheduled deposits into the Replacement Reserve and the need, as determined by Lender in its reasonable judgment, for further Repairs to the Mortgaged Property; provided, however, absent the then existence of an Event of Default, Borrower shall only be required to reimburse Lender for the reasonable costs of any such inspection a maximum of once in any calendar year. In the event that such inspection reveals that further Repairs of the Mortgaged Property are required, then, in addition to any other remedy Lender may be entitled to hereunder, Lender shall provide Borrower with a written description of the required Repairs and Borrower shall complete such Repairs to the reasonable satisfaction of Lender within ninety (90) days after the receipt of such description from Lender, or such later date as may be approved by Lender in its reasonable discretion. Additionally, Lender may, as a product of any such inspection, require that the amount of the scheduled monthly deposits into the Replacement Reserve described in Section 2.8(b) above be increased in order to accommodate Lender's reasonable estimation of the likely increased cost of future Repairs. In the event that the amount on deposit and available in the Replacement Reserve is ever inadequate to pay the cost of the Repairs, Borrower shall pay the amount of such deficiency.

17
 

 

Section 2.9.          Security Interest in Reserves.

(a)                As additional security for the payment and performance by Borrower of all duties, responsibilities and obligations under the Note and the other Loan Documents, Borrower hereby unconditionally and irrevocably assigns, conveys, pledges, mortgages, transfers, delivers, deposits, sets over and confirms unto Lender, and hereby grants to Lender a security interest in the Reserves, including (i) the accounts into which the Reserves have been deposited; (ii) all insurance on said accounts; (iii) all accounts, contract rights and general intangibles or other rights and interests pertaining thereto; (iv) all sums now or hereafter therein or represented thereby; (v) all replacements, substitutions or proceeds thereof; (vi) all instruments and documents now or hereafter evidencing the Reserves or such accounts; (vii) all powers, options, rights, privileges and immunities pertaining to the Reserves (including the right to make withdrawals therefrom); and (viii) all proceeds of the foregoing. Borrower hereby authorizes and consents to the account into which the Reserves have been deposited being held in Lender's name or the name of any entity servicing the Note for Lender and hereby acknowledges and agrees that Lender, or at Lender's election, such servicing entity, shall have exclusive control over said account. Notice of the assignment and security interest granted to Lender herein may be delivered by Lender at any time to the financial institution wherein the Reserves have been established, and Lender, or such servicing entity, shall have possession of all passbooks or other evidences of such accounts. BORROWER HEREBY INDEMNIFIES AND HOLDS LENDER HARMLESS WITH RESPECT TO ALL RISK OF LOSS REGARDING AMOUNTS ON DEPOSIT IN THE RESERVES, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THAT ANY SUCH LOSS IS CAUSED BY THE GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR INTENTIONAL MISCONDUCT OF LENDER. Borrower hereby knowingly, voluntarily and intentionally stipulates, acknowledges and agrees that the advancement of the funds from the Reserves as expressly set forth herein is at Borrower's direction and is not the exercise by Lender of any right of set-off or other remedy upon a Default. Upon an Event of Default, Lender may, without notice or demand on Borrower, at its option: (1) withdraw any or all of the funds (including interest) then remaining in the Reserves and apply the same, after deducting all costs and expenses of safekeeping, collection and delivery (including attorneys' fees, costs and expenses) to the Indebtedness or Obligations under the other Loan Documents in such manner as Lender shall deem appropriate in its sole discretion, and the excess, if any, shall be paid to Borrower, (2) exercise any and all rights and remedies of a secured party under the Code, or (3) exercise any other remedies available at law or in equity. No such use or application of the funds contained in the Reserves shall be deemed to cure any Default hereunder or under the other Loan Documents.

18
 

 

(b)               The Reserves are solely for the protection of Lender and entail no responsibility on Lender's part beyond the deposit thereof by Lender into an account at Lender or another financial institution reasonably selected by Lender, the payment of interest on such sum as specified in Section 2.9(c) hereof, and the payment of the respective costs and expenses in accordance with the terms thereof and beyond the allowing of due credit for the sums actually received. Upon assignment of this Loan Agreement by Lender, any funds in the Reserves shall be turned over to the assignee and any responsibility of Lender, as assignor, with respect thereto shall terminate so long as such assignee agrees to assume the obligations of Lender thereunder. The Reserves shall not, unless otherwise explicitly required by applicable law, be or be deemed to be escrow or trust funds, but, at Lender's option and in Lender's sole discretion, may either be held in a separate account of Lender or be commingled by Lender with the general account assets of Lender. Upon full payment of the Indebtedness secured hereby in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents (or if earlier, the completion of the applicable conditions to release of each Reserve to Lender's reasonable satisfaction) or at such earlier time as Lender may elect, the balance in the Reserves then in Lender's possession shall be paid over to Borrower and no other party shall have any right or claim thereto.

(c)                Funds in the Reserves shall bear interest consistent with other money market accounts typically established at Lender.

(d)               Any disbursements to be undertaken by Lender of any Reserves hereunder shall, at Lender's election, be made to the property account of Borrower held by Lender.

ARTICLE IV

WARRANTIES AND REPRESENTATIONS

Borrower hereby unconditionally warrants and represents to Lender, as of the date hereof and at all times during the term of the Agreement, as follows:

If Borrower, Guarantor or any Constituent Party of any of them is a corporation, limited liability company, general partnership, limited partnership, limited liability partnership, joint venture, trust or other type of business association, as the case may be, Borrower, Guarantor and any such Constituent Party, if any, (i) is either a corporation duly incorporated with a legal status separate from its affiliates, or a partnership or trust, joint venture or other type of business association duly organized, validly existing, and in good standing under the laws of the state of its formation or existence, and has complied with all conditions prerequisite to its doing business in the state in which the Mortgaged Property is situated, and (ii) has all requisite power and all governmental certificates of authority, licenses, permits, qualifications and documentation to own, lease and operate its properties and to carry on its business as now being, and as proposed to be, conducted.

Section 4.2.          Validity of Loan Documents.

Borrower hereby unconditionally covenants and agrees with Lender, until the Loan shall have been paid in full and the lien of the Mortgage shall have been released, as follows:

Section 5.1.          Existence. Borrower will and will cause each Constituent Party to preserve and keep in full force and effect its existence (separate and apart from its affiliates), rights, franchises and trade names.

Section 5.2.          Compliance with Legal Requirements. Borrower will promptly and faithfully comply with, conform to and obey all Legal Requirements, whether the same shall necessitate structural changes in, improvements to or interfere with the use or enjoyment of the Mortgaged Property.

Section 5.4.          Repair. Borrower will keep or cause to be kept the Mortgaged Property in the same or better order and condition as on the date of this Agreement and as dictated by any competing properties. Borrower will make or cause to be made all repairs, replacements, renewals, additions, betterments, improvements and alterations thereof and thereto, interior and exterior, structural and nonstructural, ordinary and extraordinary, foreseen and unforeseen, which are necessary or reasonably appropriate to keep same in such order and condition. Borrower will prevent any act, occurrence or neglect which might impair the value or usefulness of the Mortgaged Property for its intended use.

Section 5.5.          Insurance. Borrower shall maintain or cause to be maintained in force and effect on the Mortgaged Property at all times while this Agreement continues in effect the following insurance:

(a)                "All-risk" coverage insurance against loss or damage to the Mortgaged Property from all-risk perils. The amount of such insurance shall be not less than one hundred percent (100%) of the full replacement cost of the Improvements, furniture, furnishings, fixtures, equipment and other items (whether personalty or fixtures) included in the Mortgaged Property and owned by Borrower from time to time, without reduction for depreciation. The determination of the replacement cost amount shall be adjusted annually to comply with the requirements of the insurer issuing such coverage or, at Lender's election, by reference to such indexes, appraisals or information as Lender determines in its reasonable discretion. Full replacement cost, as used herein, means, with respect to the Improvements, the cost of replacing the Improvements without regard to deduction for depreciation, exclusive of the cost of excavations, foundations and footings below the lowest basement floor, and means, with respect to such furniture, furnishings, fixtures, equipment and other items, the cost of replacing the same. Each policy or policies shall contain a replacement cost endorsement and either an agreed amount endorsement (to avoid the operation of any co-insurance provisions) or a waiver of any co-insurance provisions, all subject to Lender's approval.

(b)               Commercial general liability insurance for personal injury, bodily injury, death and property damage liability in amounts not less than $2,000,000.00 per occurrence, $5,000,000.00 aggregate (inclusive of umbrella coverage) or such lesser amount as Lender in Lender's sole discretion may accept, for bodily injury, personal injury and property damage. Lender hereby retains the right to periodically review the amount of said liability insurance being maintained by Borrower and to require an increase in the amount of said liability insurance should Lender deem an increase to be reasonably prudent under then existing circumstances.

(c)                Insurance covering the major components of the central heating, air conditioning and ventilating systems, boilers, other pressure vessels, high pressure piping and machinery, elevators and escalators, if any, and other similar equipment installed in the Improvements, in an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the full replacement cost of the Improvements which policies shall insure against physical damage to and loss of occupancy and use of the Improvements arising out of an accident or breakdown covered thereunder.

27
 

 

(d)               If the Land or any part thereof is identified by the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development as being situated in an area now or subsequently designated as having special flood hazards (including those areas designated as Zone A or Zone V), flood insurance in an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the replacement cost of the Improvements or the maximum amount of flood insurance available, whichever is the lesser.

(e)                During the period of any construction on the Land or renovation or alteration of the Improvements, including tenant improvements, a so-called "Builder's All-Risk Completed Value" or "Course of Construction" insurance policy in non-reporting form for any Improvements under construction, renovation or alteration in an amount approved by Lender and Worker's Compensation Insurance covering all persons engaged in such construction, renovation or alteration.

(f)                Rental value or rental income insurance in amounts sufficient to compensate Borrower for all Rents and profits during a period of not less than one (1) year in which the Mortgaged Property may be damaged or destroyed.

(g)               Law and ordinance coverage in an amount satisfactory to Lender if the Mortgaged Property, or any part thereof, shall constitute a nonconforming use or structure under applicable zoning ordinances, sub-division and building codes or other laws, ordinances, orders and requirements.

(h)               Such other insurance on the Mortgaged Property or on any replacements or substitutions thereof or additions thereto as may from time to time be required by Lender against other insurable hazards or casualties which at the time are commonly insured against in the case of property similarly situated, due regard being given to the height and type of buildings, their construction, location, use and occupancy;

All such insurance shall (i) be with insurers authorized to do business in the state in which the Land is situated and who have and maintain a rating of at least A-, V or better from Best's Insurance Guide; (ii) contain the complete address of the Land (or a complete legal description); (iii) be for a term of at least one (1) year; (iv) contain deductibles no greater than One Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($100,000.00) or as otherwise required by Lender; and (v) be subject to the approval of Lender as to insurance companies, amounts, content, forms of policies, method by which premiums are paid and expiration dates.

28
 

 

Borrower shall as of the date hereof deliver to Lender copies of certificates of such insurance signed by an authorized agent evidencing such insurance satisfactory to Lender. Borrower shall renew or cause to be renewed all such insurance and deliver to Lender certificates evidencing such renewals at least fifteen (15) days before any such insurance shall expire. Without limiting the required endorsements to insurance policies, Borrower further agrees that all such policies shall provide that proceeds thereunder shall be payable to Lender, its successors and assigns, pursuant and subject to a mortgagee clause (without contribution) of standard form attached to, or otherwise made a part of, the applicable policy and that Lender, its successors and assigns, shall be named as an additional insured under all liability insurance policies. Borrower further agrees that all such insurance policies: (i) shall provide for at least fifteen (15) days' prior written notice to Lender prior to any cancellation or termination thereof and prior to any modification thereof which affects the interest of Lender; (ii) shall contain an endorsement or agreement by the insurer that any loss shall be payable to Lender in accordance with the terms of such policy notwithstanding any act or negligence of Borrower which might otherwise result in forfeiture of such insurance; and (iii) shall either name Lender as an additional insured or waive all rights of subrogation against Lender. The delivery to Lender of the insurance policies or the certificates of insurance as provided above shall constitute an assignment of all proceeds payable under such insurance policies by Borrower to Lender as further security for the indebtedness secured hereby. In the event of foreclosure of the Mortgage, or other transfer of title to the Mortgaged Property in extinguishment in whole or in part of the secured indebtedness, all right, title and interest of Borrower in and to all proceeds payable under such policies then in force concerning the Mortgaged Property shall thereupon vest in the purchaser at such foreclosure, or in Lender or other transferee in the event of such other transfer of title. Approval of any insurance by Lender shall not be a representation of the solvency of any insurer or the sufficiency of any amount of insurance. In the event Borrower fails to provide, maintain, keep in force or deliver and furnish to Lender the policies of insurance required by this Agreement or evidence of their renewal as required herein, Lender may, but shall not be obligated to, procure such insurance and Borrower shall pay all amounts advanced by Lender, together with interest thereon at the Default Interest Rate from and after the date advanced by Lender until actually repaid by Borrower, promptly upon demand by Lender. Any amounts so advanced by Lender, together with interest thereon, shall be secured by this Agreement, the Mortgage and by all of the other Loan Documents securing all or any part of the Indebtedness. Lender shall not be responsible for nor incur any liability for the insolvency of the insurer or other failure of the insurer to perform, even though Lender has caused the insurance to be placed with the insurer after failure of Borrower to furnish such insurance.

Borrower shall not do or suffer to be done any act that might result in a default beyond any applicable cure period by the landlord, lessor or licensor under any such Lease and shall not further assign any such Lease or any such rents. Borrower shall not assign its interest in the Leases or any rights thereunder except to Lender pursuant to the Loan Documents.

(c)                Borrower, at no cost or expense to Lender, shall enforce, short of termination, the performance and observance of each and every condition and covenant of each of the parties under such Leases. Borrower shall not, without the prior written consent of Lender, modify any of the Leases, terminate or accept the surrender of any Leases, waive or release any other party from the performance or observance of any obligation or condition under such Leases. Borrower shall not permit the prepayment of any rents under any of the Leases for more than one (1) month prior to the due date thereof.

(d)               In addition to the requirements set forth in Section 5.27 of this Agreement, Borrower shall furnish to Lender, within twenty (20) days after a request by Lender to do so, a current rent roll, certified by Borrower as being true and correct in all material respects, containing the names of all tenants, lessees and licensees with respect to the Mortgaged Property, the terms of their respective Leases, the spaces occupied and the rentals or fees payable thereunder and the amount of each tenant's security deposit. Borrower will further deliver to Lender, upon request of Lender, executed counterparts of all Leases effecting the Mortgaged Property.

(e)                In each instance when Borrower submits a Lease to Lender for approval or otherwise requests Lender’s consent pursuant to this Section 5.33, Lender shall notify Borrower of its approval or disapproval, in writing, within ten (10) Business Days after the submission or request is made to Lender, and Lender’s failure so to respond will be deemed Lender’s approval of the Lease or Lender’s consent, as the case may be; provided, however, that in order for Lender's approval to be deemed as herein stated, Borrower's written request for approval or consent shall include (i) a notice in conspicuous language that Lender's approval will be deemed if Lender fails to approve or disapprove of such request within ten (10) Business Days) and (ii) all information or documentation relating to such proposed Lease or amendment including, copies of any proposed lease or amendment, tenant biographical or financial information and a summary of the material terms of the proposed lease or amendment that Lender reasonable requires for its review and approval process.

Section 5.34.      Management Agreement. The management of the Mortgaged Property shall be by either: (a) Borrower, Property Manager or an entity affiliated with Borrower approved by Lender (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) or (b) a professional property management company approved by Lender (any such person or entity, including Property Manager, which manages the Mortgaged Property, other than Borrower, is hereinafter referred to as the "Manager"). Any such management by an affiliated entity or a professional property management company shall be pursuant to a written agreement approved by Lender; it being understood that Lender hereby approves the Property Manager and the Property Management Agreement. In no event shall Property Manager or any subsequent Manager be removed or replaced or the terms of any management agreement, including, the Property Management Agreement, modified or amended without the prior written consent of Lender (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). In the event (i) of an Event of Default or any default occurring under any management contract beyond all applicable cure and grace periods then in effect, which default is not cured within any applicable grace or cure period, or (ii) of a change in control (fifty percent or more) of the ownership of Manager or if Manager provides cause for termination, including, without limitation, gross negligence, willful misconduct or fraud, or (iii) of the Manager becoming insolvent or a debtor in any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding, Lender shall have the right to terminate, or direct Borrower to terminate, such management contract at any time and, in any such event of termination of the management contract, to retain, or to direct Borrower to retain, a new management agent approved by Lender (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). Any such successor manager shall be a reputable management company and shall be reasonably acceptable to Lender (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). All Rents generated by or derived from the Mortgaged Property shall first be utilized solely for current expenses directly attributable to the ownership and operation of the Mortgaged Property, including, without limitation, current expenses relating to Borrower's liabilities and obligations with respect to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and none of the Rents generated by or derived from the Mortgaged Property shall be diverted by Borrower and utilized for any other purposes unless all such current expenses attributable to the ownership and operation of the Mortgaged Property have been fully paid and satisfied. Borrower further covenants and agrees that Borrower shall require the Manager (or any successor managers) to maintain at all times during the term of this Agreement worker's compensation insurance as required by applicable governmental authorities or legal requirements.

ARTICLE VI

ASSIGNMENTS, CASUALTY AND CONDEMNATION

Section 6.1.          Assignment of Contracts. As additional security for the payment of the Loan, Borrower hereby transfers and assigns to Lender all of Borrower's rights and interest, but not its obligations, in, under and to each Contract upon the following terms and conditions:

36
 

 

(a)                Borrower represents and warrants that the copy of each Contract Borrower has furnished or will furnish to Lender is or will be (as applicable) a true and complete copy thereof, including all amendments thereto, if any, and that Borrower's interest therein is not subject to any claim, setoff or encumbrance.

(b)               Neither this assignment nor any action by Lender shall constitute an assumption by Lender of any obligations under any Contract, and Borrower shall continue to be liable for all obligations of Borrower thereunder, Borrower hereby agreeing to perform all of its obligations under each Contract. EXCEPT FOR THOSE LOSSES, COSTS, LIABILITIES OR EXPENSES THAT ARE CAUSED BY THE WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OR GROSS NEGLIGENCE OF LENDER, BORROWER AGREES TO INDEMNIFY AND HOLD LENDER HARMLESS AGAINST AND FROM ANY LOSS, COST, LIABILITY OR EXPENSE (INCLUDING REASONABLE ATTORNEYS' FEES) RESULTING FROM ANY FAILURE OF BORROWER TO SO PERFORM.

(c)                Lender shall have the right at any time (but shall have no obligation) to take in its name or in the name of Borrower such action as Lender may at any time determine to be necessary or advisable to cure any default under any Contract or to protect the rights of Borrower or Lender thereunder. EXCEPT FOR THOSE ACTIONS THAT ARE CAUSED BY THE WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OR GROSS NEGLIGENCE OF LENDER, LENDER SHALL INCUR NO LIABILITY IF ANY ACTION SO TAKEN BY IT OR IN ITS BEHALF SHALL PROVE TO BE INADEQUATE OR INVALID, AND BORROWER AGREES TO INDEMNIFY AND HOLD LENDER HARMLESS AGAINST AND FROM ANY LOSS, COST, LIABILITY OR EXPENSE (INCLUDING REASONABLE ATTORNEYS' FEES) INCURRED IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUCH ACTION.

(d)               Borrower hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints Lender as Borrower's attorney-in-fact, in Borrower's or Lender's name, to enforce all rights of Borrower under each Contract. Such appointment is coupled with an interest and is therefore irrevocable; provided, however, Lender hereby agrees that it shall take no action and have no right to take any actions as Borrower's attorney-in-fact under this provision unless and until an Event of Default shall occur and then be in existence.

(e)                In the absence of a continuing Event of Default, Borrower shall have the right to exercise its rights as owner under each Contract, provided that Borrower shall not cancel or materially amend any Contract or do or suffer to be done any act which would impair the security constituted by this assignment without the prior written consent of Lender.

(f)                This assignment shall inure to the benefit of Lender and its successors and assigns, any purchaser upon foreclosure of the Mortgage, any receiver in possession of the Mortgaged Property and any corporation affiliated with Lender which assumes Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement.

37
 

 

Section 6.2.          Assignment of Proceeds. Borrower hereby further transfers and assigns to Lender and acknowledges that Lender shall be entitled to receive (i) any and all sums which may be awarded and become payable to Borrower for condemnation of all or any part of the Mortgaged Property, or (ii) the proceeds of any and all insurance upon the Mortgaged Property (other than the proceeds of general public liability insurance).

(a)                Borrower shall, upon request of Lender, make, execute, acknowledge and deliver any and all additional assignments and documents as may be necessary from time to time to enable Lender to collect and receipt for any of such insurance or condemnation proceeds.

(b)               Lender shall not be, under any circumstances, liable or responsible for failure to collect, or exercise diligence in the collection of, any of such sums.

(c)                Any sums so received by Lender pursuant to this Section 6.2 may, in Lender's sole discretion, be provided back to Borrower for restoration of the Mortgaged Property, in the amounts, manner, method and pursuant to such requirements in documents as Lender may require, or, except as otherwise provided in Section 6.3 and 6.4 hereof, shall be applied to the liquidation of the Indebtedness in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.6 hereof.

Section 6.3.          Limited Right to Use Casualty Insurance Proceeds. Borrower will give Lender prompt notice of any damage to or destruction of the Mortgaged Property, and:

(a)                In case of loss covered by policies of insurance, Lender (or, after foreclosure, the purchaser at the foreclosure sale) is hereby authorized, at Lender's option, either (i) to settle and adjust any claim under such policies without the consent of Borrower, or (ii) allow Borrower to agree with the insurance company or companies on the amount to be paid upon the loss; provided, however, that (x) Borrower may adjust losses aggregating not in excess of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($250,000.00) if such adjustment is carried out in a competent and timely manner, and provided that in any case Lender shall and is hereby authorized to collect and receipt for any such insurance proceeds, and (y) in any circumstances when an Event of Default is not then in existence, that Lender should elect, pursuant to this Section 6.3(a) to settle or adjust any claim under any such policies, Lender shall not undertake any such settlement or adjustment without first consulting with and seeking the advice of Borrower or Borrower's representatives, provided, the ultimate decision shall still be and remain that of Lender. All expenses incurred by Lender in the adjustment and collection of insurance proceeds shall be additional indebtedness hereby secured and shall be reimbursed to Lender upon demand.

38
 

 

(b)               In the event of any insured damage to or destruction of the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof (herein called an "Insured Casualty") which is a Restoration Casualty, then the proceeds of insurance shall be applied to the cost of restoring, repairing, replacing or rebuilding the Mortgaged Property or part thereof subject to such Restoration Casualty, as provided for below; and Borrower hereby covenants and agrees to commence and diligently prosecute such restoring, repairing, replacing or rebuilding; provided always, that Borrower shall pay all costs (and if required by Lender, Borrower shall deposit the total thereof with Lender in advance) of such restoring, repairing, replacing or rebuilding in excess of the net proceeds of insurance made available pursuant to the terms hereof.

(c)                Except as provided above, the proceeds of insurance resulting from any Insured Casualty shall be applied to the payment of the Indebtedness hereby secured.

(d)               In the event that proceeds of insurance, if any, shall be made available to Borrower for the restoring, repairing, replacing or rebuilding of the Mortgaged Property, Borrower hereby covenants to restore, repair, replace or rebuild the same to be of at least equal value and of substantially the same character as prior to such damage or destruction, all to be effected in accordance with applicable law and plans and specifications approved in advance by Lender.

(e)                Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event there is an Insured Casualty and the LA Fitness Lease requires the restoration of the Mortgaged Property, Lender shall allow Borrower to utilize insurance proceeds for such restoration so long as (i) the rental payments under the LA Fitness Lease continue to be paid current either by LA Fitness or Borrower and (ii) the restoration of the Mortgaged Property can in Lender's reasonable determination be completed at least six (6) months prior to the Maturity Date.

In the event Borrower is entitled to reimbursement out of insurance proceeds held by Lender, such proceeds shall be disbursed from time to time upon Lender being furnished with (i) evidence satisfactory to it of the estimated cost of completion of the restoration, repair, replacement and rebuilding; (ii) funds, or, at Lender's option, assurances reasonably satisfactory to Lender that such funds are available, sufficient in addition to the proceeds of insurance to complete the proposed restoration, repair, replacement and rebuilding; and (iii) such architect's certificates, waivers of lien, contractor's sworn statements, title insurance endorsements, bonds, plats of survey and such other evidences of cost, payment and performance as Lender may reasonably require and approve; and Lender may, in any event, require that all plans and specifications for such restoration, repair, replacement and rebuilding be submitted to and approved by Lender prior to commencement of work. No payment made prior to the final completion of the restoration, repair, replacement and rebuilding shall exceed the value or cost of the work performed from time to time (less any retainage required by Lender); funds other than proceeds of insurance shall be disbursed prior to disbursement of such proceeds; and at all times, the undisbursed balance of such proceeds remaining in the hands of Lender, together with funds deposited for that purpose or irrevocably committed to the satisfaction of Lender by or on behalf of Borrower for that purpose, shall be at least sufficient in the reasonable judgment of Lender to pay for the cost of completion of the restoration, repair, replacement or rebuilding, free and clear of all liens or claims for lien. Any surplus which may remain out of insurance proceeds held by Lender after payment of such costs of restoration, repair, replacement or rebuilding shall be paid to any party entitled thereto.

39
 

 

Section 6.4.          Limited Right to Use Condemnation Proceeds. Borrower will give Lender prompt notice of any instituted or threatened condemnation proceeding affecting a part of the Mortgaged Property and if there shall occur any condemnation of a part of the Mortgaged Property, and if (i) in the reasonable judgment of Lender the Mortgaged Property can be restored, within a reasonable time and in any event prior to nine (9) months prior to the Maturity Date (as defined in and as may have been extended pursuant to the Note), to an economic unit not less valuable than the same was prior to such condemnation and adequately securing the Indebtedness, and (ii) Lender receives assurances satisfactory to Lender that tenancies or other sources of revenue from the Mortgaged Property will continue in full force and effect after restoration subject only to rent abatement during the period when any leased premises are untenantable, then, if and so long as there is no Default hereunder, Lender will make available to Borrower, for such restoration, proceeds of condemnation, if any, collected by Lender because of the act or occurrence and not restricted by any adverse claim thereto. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event there is a condemnation and the LA Fitness Lease requires the restoration of the Mortgaged Property, Lender shall allow Borrower to utilize proceeds of such condemnation for such restoration so long as (i) the rental payments under the LA Fitness Lease continue to be paid either by LA Fitness or Borrower and (ii) the restoration of the Mortgaged Property can in Lender's reasonable determination be completed at least six (6) months prior to the Maturity Date.

As used in this Subsection 7.1(b), the term "Cure Period" means a thirty (30) day period commencing upon Lender's written notice to Borrower of Borrower's failure to satisfy the subject Obligation; provided, however, if (1) the subject failure is, by its nature, not readily susceptible to cure within thirty (30) days, and (2) Borrower commences such cure process within the initial thirty (30) day period and diligently pursues same to completion within one hundred twenty (120) days of the initial failure by Borrower to satisfy the subject Obligation, then such failure shall not constitute an "Event of Default";

40
 

 

(c)                Any representation, warranty or statement made by Borrower, Guarantor or others in, under or pursuant to the Loan Documents or any affidavit or other instrument executed or delivered with respect to the Loan Documents or the Indebtedness is determined by Lender to be false or misleading in any material respect as of the date hereof or thereof or shall become so at any time prior to the repayment in full of the Indebtedness;

(m)             The occurrence of any event referred to in Sections 7.1(e) and (f) hereof with respect to Guarantor, any Constituent Party or other Person obligated in any manner to pay or perform the Indebtedness or Obligations, respectively, or any part thereof (as if such Person were the "Borrower" in such Sections);

Any

44
 

money advanced by Lender in connection with any action taken under this Section 7.2, together with interest thereon at the Default Interest Rate from the date of making such advancement by Lender until actually paid by Borrower, shall be a demand obligation owing by Borrower to Lender and shall be secured by the Mortgage and by every other instrument securing the secured indebtedness.

Section 7.3.          Lender's Offset Rights. Without limitation to the foregoing, Lender may, at any time and from time to time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, without notice to any person or entity (and Borrower hereby expressly waives any such notice) to the fullest extent permitted by law, set-off and apply any and all monies, securities and other properties of Borrower now or in the future in its possession, custody or control, or on deposit with or otherwise owed to Borrower by such Lender, including all such monies, securities and other properties held in general, special, time, demand, provisional or final accounts or for safekeeping or as collateral or otherwise, against any and all of Borrower's obligations to Lender now or hereafter existing under this Agreement, irrespective of whether Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement. Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts promptly to notify Borrower after any such set-off and application, provided that failure, to give or delay in giving any such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application or impose any liability on Lender. Rights given to Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of set-off) which Lender may have under this Agreement.

Section 7.4.          Exercise of Rights and Remedies. All rights and remedies of Lender hereunder or under the Note or under any other Loan Document shall be separate, distinct and cumulative and no single, partial or full exercise of any right or remedy shall exhaust the same or preclude Lender from thereafter exercising in full or in part the same right or remedy or from concurrently or thereafter exercising any other right or remedy which Lender may have hereunder, under the Note or any other Loan Document, or at law or in equity, and each and every such right and remedy may be exercised at any time or from time to time.

Section 7.5.          Legal Proceedings. Lender shall have the right to commence, appear in, or to defend any action or proceeding purporting to affect the rights or duties of the parties hereunder or the payment of any funds, and in connection therewith pay necessary expenses, employ counsel and pay its reasonable fees.

LENDER'S DISCLAIMERS - BORROWER'S INDEMNITIES

Section 8.1.          No Obligation by Lender to Operate. Any term or condition of any of the Loan Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, Lender shall not have, and by its execution and acceptance of this Agreement hereby expressly disclaims, any obligation or responsibility for the management, conduct or operation of the business and affairs of Borrower or Guarantor. Any term or condition of the Loan Documents which permits Lender to disburse funds, whether from the proceeds of the Loan, or otherwise, or to take or refrain from taking any action with respect to Borrower, Guarantor, the Mortgaged Property or any other collateral for repayment of the Loan, shall be deemed to be solely to permit Lender to audit and review the management, operation and conduct of the business and affairs of Borrower and Guarantor, and to maintain and preserve the security given to Lender for the Loan, and may not be relied upon by any other Person. Further, Lender shall not have, has not assumed and by its execution and acceptance of this Agreement hereby expressly disclaims any liability or responsibility for the payment or performance of any indebtedness or obligation of Borrower or Guarantor and no term or condition of the Loan Documents, shall be construed otherwise. Borrower hereby expressly acknowledges that no term or condition of the Loan Documents shall be construed so as to deem the relationship between Borrower, Guarantor and Lender to be other than that of borrower, guarantor and lender, and Borrower shall at all times represent that the relationship between Borrower, Guarantor and Lender is solely that of borrower, guarantor and lender. EXCEPT FOR THOSE COSTS, EXPENSES OR LIABILITIES THAT ARE CAUSED BY THE WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OR GROSS NEGLIGENCE OF LENDER, BORROWER HEREBY INDEMNIFIES AND AGREES TO HOLD LENDER HARMLESS FROM AND AGAINST ANY COST, EXPENSE OR LIABILITY (INCLUDING REASONABLE ATTORNEYS' FEES) INCURRED OR SUFFERED BY LENDER AS A RESULT OF ANY ASSERTION OR CLAIM OF ANY OBLIGATION OR RESPONSIBILITY OF LENDER FOR THE MANAGEMENT, OPERATION AND CONDUCT OF THE BUSINESS AND AFFAIRS OF BORROWER OR GUARANTOR, OR AS A RESULT OF ANY ASSERTION OR CLAIM OF ANY LIABILITY OR RESPONSIBILITY OF LENDER FOR THE PAYMENT OR PERFORMANCE OF ANY INDEBTEDNESS OR OBLIGATION OF BORROWER OR GUARANTOR.

WITHOUT INTENDING TO LIMIT THE REMEDIES AVAILABLE TO LENDER WITH RESPECT TO THE ENFORCEMENT OF ITS INDEMNIFICATION RIGHTS AS STATED HEREIN OR AS STATED IN ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, IN THE EVENT ANY CLAIM OR DEMAND IS MADE OR ANY OTHER FACT COMES TO THE ATTENTION OF LENDER IN CONNECTION WITH, RELATING OR PERTAINING TO, OR ARISING OUT OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT, WHICH LENDER REASONABLY BELIEVES MIGHT INVOLVE OR LEAD TO SOME LIABILITY OF LENDER, BORROWER SHALL, IMMEDIATELY UPON RECEIPT OF WRITTEN NOTIFICATION OF ANY SUCH CLAIM OR DEMAND, ASSUME IN FULL THE PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY FOR AND THE DEFENSE OF ANY SUCH CLAIM OR DEMAND AND PAY IN CONNECTION THEREWITH ANY LOSS, DAMAGE, DEFICIENCY, LIABILITY OR OBLIGATION, INCLUDING LEGAL FEES AND COURT COSTS INCURRED IN CONNECTION THEREWITH. IN THE EVENT OF COURT ACTION IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUCH CLAIM OR DEMAND, BORROWER SHALL ASSUME IN FULL THE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE DEFENSE OF ANY SUCH ACTION AND SHALL IMMEDIATELY SATISFY AND DISCHARGE ANY FINAL DECREE OR JUDGMENT RENDERED THEREIN. LENDER MAY, IN ITS SOLE DISCRETION, MAKE ANY PAYMENTS SUSTAINED OR INCURRED BY REASON OF ANY OF THE FOREGOING; AND BORROWER SHALL IMMEDIATELY REPAY TO LENDER, IN CASH AND NOT WITH PROCEEDS OF THE LOAN, THE AMOUNT OF SUCH PAYMENT, WITH INTEREST THEREON AT THE MAXIMUM RATE OF INTEREST PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW FROM THE DATE OF SUCH PAYMENT.

Section 8.3.          No Agency. Nothing herein shall be construed as making or constituting Lender as the agent of Borrower or of construing or constituting Borrower as the agent of Lender in making payments pursuant to any operational contracts entered into for the Improvements or otherwise. The purpose of all requirements of Lender hereunder is solely to allow Lender to check and require documentation sufficient to protect Lender and the Loan contemplated hereby. Borrower shall have no right to rely on any procedures required by Lender, Borrower hereby acknowledging that Borrower has sole responsibility for operating the Improvements and paying for operational expenses and that Borrower has solely, on Borrower's own behalf, selected or approved each vendor or other party with which Borrower has done business, Lender having no responsibility for any such Persons or for the quality of their service or workmanship.

In the case of an assignment, the assignee ("Assignee") shall, to the extent of such assignment, have the same rights, benefits and obligations as it would if it were the Lender hereunder and the Lender shall be relieved of its obligations hereunder to the extent of the interest so assigned and expressly assumed in writing by Assignee. Borrower will use its reasonable efforts to assist and cooperate with Lender in any manner reasonably requested by Lender to effect any such assignment including assisting in the preparation of appropriate disclosure documents or modifying this Agreement to further reflect an agency relationship between Lender and other institutions.

47
 

 

(b)               Disclosure to Assignees. Lender may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation of the Loan as described above, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant, any information relating to Borrower or Guarantor furnished to Lender in the course of the transactions described herein. Borrower will be responsible for the accuracy and completeness of any materials furnished by Lender to any actual or prospective assignee or participant exactly as if such assignee or participate were the original "Lender" under this Agreement.

(c)                Further Assurances. Borrower agrees to cooperate with Lender at Borrower's sole expense in connection with any proposed participation or assignment and to provide, upon reasonable request and written notice from Lender, all reasonable assistance requested by Lender and each proposed Assignee in connection therewith, including without limitation: (i) the execution of such documents as Lender or any Assignee may reasonably require, consistent with the provisions of this Agreement; (ii) the participation by representatives of Borrower in meetings or conference telephone calls with Lender, any assigning lender or any proposed Assignees; and (iii) the execution of amendments to any Loan Documents required in connection with any assignment that are reasonably required in connection therewith, provided that no such amendments will modify the material terms of any of the Loan Documents or materially impair the rights of Borrower under any such Loan Documents.

Section 9.4.          Reliance by Lender. Lender is relying and is entitled to rely upon each and all of the provisions of this Agreement; and accordingly, if any provision or provisions of this Agreement should be held to be invalid or ineffective, then all other provisions hereof shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding.

Section 9.6.          APPLICABLE LAW. IT IS ACKNOWLEDGED AND AGREED THAT THE NEGOTIATIONS WITH RESPECT TO THE LOAN DOCUMENTS AND THE TRANSACTION EVIDENCED HEREBY WERE UNDERTAKEN IN THE STATE OF TEXAS. IT IS THE INTENTION OF BORROWER AND LENDER THAT THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF TEXAS (WITHOUT REGARD TO CHOICE OF LAWS OR CONFLICT OF LAWS RULES) AND THE LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES APPLICABLE TO TRANSACTIONS IN THE STATE OF TEXAS; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, IT IS ACKNOWLEDGED THAT SOLELY WITH RESPECT TO REMEDIAL MEASURES UNDER THE MORTGAGE OR OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS WITH RESPECT TO THE MORTGAGED PROPERTY WHICH MUST NECESSARILY BE GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE WHEREIN THE LAND AND IMPROVEMENTS ARE LOCATED THAT THE LOCAL STATE LAWS WHERE SUCH LAND AND IMPROVEMENTS ARE LOCATED SHALL GOVERN SOLELY WITH RESPECT TO SUCH REMEDIAL MATTERS. IT IS FURTHER AGREED THAT APPROPRIATE VENUE IN ANY DISPUTE OCCURRING RELATIVE TO THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, WHETHER IN FEDERAL OR STATE COURT, SHALL BE IN DALLAS COUNTY, TEXAS.

Section 9.7.          Headings. The Article, Section and Subsection entitlements hereof are inserted for convenience of reference only and shall in no way alter, modify, define, limit, amplify or be used in construing the text, scope or intent of such Articles, Sections or Subsections.

Section 9.8.          Controlling Agreement. It is expressly stipulated and agreed to be the intent of Borrower and Lender at all times to comply strictly with the applicable Texas law governing the maximum rate or amount of interest payable on the Indebtedness and the Related Indebtedness (or applicable United States federal law to the extent that it permits Lender to contract for, charge, take, reserve or receive a greater amount of interest than under Texas law). If the applicable law is ever judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount (i) contracted for, charged, taken, reserved or received pursuant to the Note, any of the other Loan Documents or any other communication or writing by or between Borrower and Lender related to the transaction or transactions that are the subject matter of the Loan Documents; (ii) contracted for, charged, taken, reserved or received by reason of Lender's exercise of the option to accelerate the maturity of the Note and/or the Related Indebtedness; or (iii) Borrower will have paid or Lender will have received by reason of any voluntary prepayment by Borrower of the Indebtedness and/or the Related Indebtedness, then it is Borrower's and Lender's express intent that all amounts charged in excess of the Maximum Lawful Rate shall be automatically canceled, ab initio, and all amounts in excess of the Maximum Lawful Rate theretofore collected by Lender shall be credited on the principal balance of the Indebtedness and/or the Related Indebtedness (or, if the Indebtedness and all Related Indebtedness have been or would thereby be paid in full, refunded to Borrower), and the provisions of the Note and the other Loan Documents shall immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new document, so as to comply with the applicable law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder and thereunder; provided, however, if the Indebtedness has been paid in full before the end of the stated term of the Note, then Borrower and Lender agree that Lender shall, with reasonable promptness after Lender discovers or is advised by Borrower that interest was received in an amount in excess of the Maximum Lawful Rate, either refund such excess interest to Borrower and/or credit such excess

49
 

interest against the Indebtedness and/or any Related Indebtedness then owing by Borrower to Lender. Borrower hereby agrees that as a condition precedent to any claim seeking usury penalties against Lender, Borrower will provide written notice to Lender, advising Lender in reasonable detail of the nature and amount of the violation, and Lender shall have sixty (60) days after receipt of such notice in which to correct such usury violation, if any, by either refunding such excess interest to Borrower or crediting such excess interest against the Indebtedness and/or the Related Indebtedness then owing by Borrower to Lender. All sums contracted for, charged, taken, reserved or received by Lender for the use, forbearance or detention of any debt evidenced by the Note and/or the Related Indebtedness shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized or spread, using the actuarial method, throughout the stated term of the Note and/or the Related Indebtedness (including any and all renewal and extension periods) until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Indebtedness and/or the Related Indebtedness does not exceed the Maximum Lawful Rate from time to time in effect and applicable to the Indebtedness and/or the Related Indebtedness for so long as debt is outstanding. In no event shall the provisions of Chapter 346 of the Texas Finance Code (which regulates certain revolving credit loan accounts and revolving triparty accounts) apply to the Note, the Indebtedness and/or any of the Related Indebtedness. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any of the other Loan Documents, it is not the intention of Lender to accelerate the maturity of any interest that has not accrued at the time of such acceleration or to collect unearned interest at the time of such acceleration.

Section 9.9.          Controlling Document. In the event of a conflict between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any other Loan Document, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control.

Section 9.10.      Construction of Agreement. All pronouns, whether in masculine, feminine or neuter form, shall be deemed to refer to the object of such pronoun whether same is masculine, feminine or neuter in gender, as the context may suggest or require. All terms used herein, whether or not defined in Section 1.1 hereof, and whether used in singular or plural form, shall be deemed to refer to the object of such term, whether such is singular or plural in nature, as the context may suggest or require.

Section 9.11.      Counting of Days. If any time period referenced hereunder ends on a day other than a Business Day, such time period shall be deemed to instead end on the immediately preceding Business Day.

Section 9.12.      Further Assurances. At any time and from time to time, upon the request of the Lender, and at the sole expense of the Borrower, the Borrower shall promptly execute and deliver all such further instruments, agreements, and documents and take such further action as the Lender may reasonably deem necessary or desirable to preserve and perfect its lien and security interest in the Mortgaged Property and carry out the provisions and purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Borrower shall (i) execute and deliver to the Lender such financing statements as the Lender may from time to time reasonably require; (ii) enter into such amendments, modifications or corrections to the Loan Documents or effectuate such supplemental Loan Documents as Lender may reasonably require; and (iii) execute and deliver to the Lender such other documents, instruments, and agreements as the Lender may reasonably require to better evidence or perfect and maintain the validity, effectiveness, and priority of the Loan Documents and the liens intended to be created thereby. The Borrower authorizes the Lender to file one or more financing or continuation statements, and amendments thereto, relating to all or any part of the Mortgaged Property without the signature of the Borrower where permitted by law.

50
 

 

Section 9.13.      Waivers. No waiver of or consent to any departure from any provision hereof shall be effective unless in writing and signed by Lender or Borrower, as applicable, and shall be effective only in the specific instance for the purpose for which given and to the extent specified in such writing. No advance of Loan proceeds hereunder shall constitute a waiver of any of the conditions to Lender's obligation to make further advances nor, in the event Borrower fails to satisfy any such condition, shall any advance have the effect of precluding Lender from thereafter declaring such failure to be an event of default. No waiver of any event of default hereunder shall affect or constitute a waiver of any later event of default. No delay or omission of Lender to exercise any right or remedy upon the happening of any event of default shall impair any such right or remedy or be deemed to be a waiver of such event of default

Section 9.14.      Recording. Borrower covenants not to record this Agreement, the Note or the Guaranty in the real property records of the county where all or any part of the Mortgaged Property is located. Borrower and Lender agree that the Mortgage and the Assignment shall be recorded in the real property records of the county or counties where all or any part of the Mortgaged Property is located. Nothing herein shall be deemed to prohibit Lender from (a) making any of the Loan Documents a matter of public record in any court proceeding seeking the enforcement of the Loan Documents, (b) making any other public filing or disclosure of the Loan Documents necessary for the enforcement of the Loan Documents, or (c) making any other public filing or disclosure required by applicable law or order of an applicable Governmental Authority.

Section 9.15.      WAIVER OF RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY. BORROWER, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, HEREBY KNOWINGLY, INTENTIONALLY, IRREVOCABLY, UNCONDITIONALLY AND VOLUNTARILY, WITH AND UPON THE ADVICE OF COMPETENT COUNSEL, WAIVES, RELINQUISHES AND FOREVER FORGOES THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING BASED UPON, ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY RELATING TO THIS LOAN AGREEMENT OR ANY CONDUCT, ACT OR OMISSION OF LENDER OR BORROWER, OR ANY OF THEIR DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, PARTNERS, MEMBERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS OR ATTORNEYS, OR ANY OTHER PERSONS AFFILIATED WITH LENDER OR BORROWER, IN EACH OF THE FOREGOING CASES, WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE.

Section 9.16.      NOTICE OF INDEMNIFICATION. BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THIS AGREEMENT CONTAINS CERTAIN INDEMNIFICATION PROVISIONS PURSUANT TO SECTIONS 5.19, 6.1, 8.1 AND 8.2 HEREOF, WHICH PROVISIONS, IN CERTAIN INSTANCES, INCLUDE BORROWER'S INDEMNIFICATION OF LENDER AGAINST LENDER'S OWN NEGLIGENCE.

Section 9.17.      NO ORAL AGREEMENTS. THIS LOAN AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS REPRESENT THE FINAL, ENTIRE AGREEMENT AMONG THE PARTIES HERETO AND SUPERSEDE ANY AND ALL PRIOR COMMITMENTS, AGREEMENTS, REPRESENTATIONS AND UNDERSTANDINGS, WHETHER WRITTEN OR ORAL, RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF AND THEREOF AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED OR VARIED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OR DISCUSSIONS OF THE PARTIES HERETO. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS AMONG THE PARTIES HERETO. The provisions hereof and the other Loan Documents may be amended or waived only by an instrument in writing signed by Borrower and Lender.

Special Provisions


PARTIAL RELEASES AND RESALE CONTRACTS

1.                  Resale Contracts. The following provisions are applicable with respect to any attempt by Borrower to execute a Resale Contract or undertake a transaction thereunder:

(a)                Resale Contracts. Borrower shall not enter into any Resale Contract absent obtaining the prior written consent of Lender (including, without limitation, Lender's consent to the exact description of the applicable Release Parcel), which consent may be granted or withheld in Lender's sole discretion. Without limiting the foregoing, any Resale Contract must be executed at arm's length with a bona fide third party purchaser and in good faith. The Resale Contract shall not include seller financing or other similar undertakings but shall be in the nature of a cash sale at a purchase price no less than a reasonable fair market value, unless otherwise approved in advance in writing by Lender. Neither Borrower nor any affiliate of Borrower shall have any agreement or understanding, informal or otherwise, with any Release Parcel Purchaser providing Borrower or any Affiliate of Borrower with any right or obligation to repurchase all or any interests in and to any such Release Parcel.

(b)               Resale Contract Assignment. For so long as the Indebtedness is outstanding and as additional security for the Loan, Borrower hereby sells, assigns, transfers and sets over unto Lender, its successors and assigns (herein the "Resale Contract Assignment"), all of Borrower's right, title and interest in, to and under any Resale Contract, including but not limited to (i) any and all rights of Borrower to receive the proceeds from any such Resale Contract, and (ii) any and all rights and remedies which Borrower may have against any other party to any Resale Contract, whether related to the payment of any portion of the sales proceeds or otherwise.

57
 

 

(c)                Representatives and Covenants. Borrower hereby represents, warrants and agrees that (i) Borrower has the right, power and capacity to make this Resale Contract Assignment and that no person, firm or corporation other than Borrower has or will have (1) any right, title or interest in, to or under any Resale Contract, as seller thereunder, or (2) any right to receive the sales proceeds from any such Resale Contract or any part thereof; (ii) Borrower will, at Borrower's sole cost and expense, perform and discharge all of Borrower's obligations and undertakings as seller under any Resale Contract. Borrower will use all reasonable efforts to enforce or secure the performance of each and every obligation and undertaking of a Release Parcel Purchaser under any Resale Contract and will appear in and prosecute or defend any action or proceeding arising under, or in any manner connected with, an Resale Contract or the obligations and undertakings of a Release Parcel Purchaser; (iii) Borrower will not without the prior written consent of Lender, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, (1) pledge, transfer, mortgage or otherwise encumber or assign any portion of the proceeds from or any of Borrower's other rights under any Resale Contract; (2) waive, excuse, condone or in any manner release or discharge a Release Parcel Purchaser under a Resale Contract; (3) disaffirm, cancel, terminate or consent to any surrender of any Resale Contract; or (4) modify, extend or in any way alter the terms of the Resale Contract so as to reduce or diminish or postpone Borrower/s receipt of any portion of the Release Proceeds; (iv) Borrower shall provide Lender with a copy of any material notice received by Borrower relative to any Resale Contract; (v) there are no existing defaults under any Resale Contract and Borrower has not performed any act or executed any instrument which might prevent Lender from operating under any other terms and provisions hereof or which would materially limit Lender in such operation; and (vi) Borrower has delivered to Lender a true and correct copy of any Resale Contract once fully executed.

(d)               Lender. Lender shall not be deemed or construed to constitute Lender as mortgagee in possession of any Release Parcel or to obligate Lender to take any action hereunder, to incur expenses or to perform or discharge any obligation, duty or liability hereunder or under any Resale Contract.

(e)                Proceeds from Resale Contracts. From and after the occurrence of an Event of Default and so long as such Event of Default shall be continuing (whether or not Lender shall have exercised its option to declare the Note immediately due and payable), all net sales proceeds under any Resale Contract shall be paid directly to Lender; and Lender may notify a Release Parcel Purchaser (or any other parties in possession of any Release Parcel) to pay all of such net proceeds directly to Lender at the address specified herein, for which this Resale Contract Assignment shall be sufficient warrant. All proceeds so paid to Lender shall be applied by Lender in accordance with the provisions of the Mortgage and other Loan Documents.

58
 

 

(f)                Proceedings. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary (a) Borrower hereby assigns to Lender any award made hereafter to Borrower in any court proceeding involving a Release Parcel Purchaser, in any bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization proceeding in any state or federal court, and any and all payments made by said purchasers in lieu of payment of the purchase price under the applicable Resale Contract; provided, however, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Lender shall only be entitled to collect the lesser of (i) the amount of any such award received by Borrower less such Borrower's reasonable costs of collection, or (ii) the Partial Release Price which would have been attributable to such Resale in the event the Release Parcel Purchaser had not defaulted in its obligations under the applicable Resale Contract; and (b) Borrower hereby appoints Lender as Borrower's irrevocable attorney-in-fact to appear in any action and/or to collect any such award or payment; any such assignment and appointment to become operative upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and to remain in full force and effect so long as any such Event of Default continues.

(g)               Remedies. Borrower, during the continuance of an Event of Default, hereby authorizes Lender, at is option, in addition to Lender's rights otherwise provided in the Loan Documents, to enter and take possession of the Release Parcel; to collect as herein provided all or any purchase price or proceeds payable under any Resale Contact; to consummate the transactions contemplated by any Resale Contract; to bring or defend any suits in connection with the possession of any Release Parcel, in Borrower's name or Lender's own name; and to perform such other acts in connection with any Resale Contract as Lender, in its sole discretion, may deem proper. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Borrower hereby constitutes and appoints the Lender its true and lawful attorney, which appointment is hereby coupled with an interest and is therefore irrevocable prior to the payment in full of the Loan, with full power of substitution, to, during the continuance of an Event of Default (i) ask, demand, collect, receive, receipt for, sue for, compound and give acquittance for any and all amounts constituting the purchase price or proceeds under the Resale Contract, which may be due or become due or payable under any Resale Contract, (ii) execute any and all requests and notices or other demands for the payment of all or any part of such purchase price or other proceeds , (iii) endorse the name of the Borrower on all commercial paper or other instruments given in payment of all or any part of such purchase price or other proceeds, and (iv) in the discretion of the Lender, file any claim or take any other action or proceeding, either in its own name or in the name of Borrower or otherwise, which Lender may deem necessary or appropriate to protect and preserve the rights, titles and interests of Lender hereunder or of Borrower under any Resale Contract, and without limiting the foregoing, Lender shall have and is hereby given full power and authority to transfer any Resale Contract into the name of the Lender or its nominee and/or to receive or demand all or any part of such purchase price or other proceeds without prior notice except as otherwise expressly provided for in any of the Loan Documents or further consent by Borrower. The receipt by Lender of any proceeds under a Resale Contract pursuant to this Resale Contract Assignment after the institution of foreclosure proceedings under the Mortgage shall not cure any such Event of Default or affect such proceedings or any sale pursuant thereto.

59
 

 

2.                  Partial Releases. As a part of Borrower's request for Lender to approve any proposed Resale Contract, Borrower shall also request Lender's approval of the corresponding release of the Release Parcel from the lien of the Mortgage (a "Partial Release") which such consent may be granted or withheld in Lender's sole discretion in tandem with its approval or disapproval of the corresponding Resale Contract. To the extent Lender consents to the provision of a Partial Release and the effectuation of a sale of the Release Parcel to a Release Parcel Purchaser pursuant to a Resale Contract, the following requirements shall be applicable to the Partial Release procedure:

(a)                The location and configuration of the Release Parcel shall be reasonably satisfactory to Lender and no Partial Release shall result in a Material Adverse Change with respect to any remaining portion of the Land including, without limitation, any negation or problematic limitation on access by any Parcel remaining in the Land to a public street.

(b)               Borrower's request for a Partial Release shall be given to Lender and accompanied by (i) any applicable Resale Contract or similar agreement, (ii) the identity and address of any applicable Release Parcel Purchaser or lessee, (iii) the legal description of the Release Parcel, (iv) information necessary to process the request for Partial Release including the name and address of the title company, if any, to whose attention the Parcel Release Instrument (hereinafter defined) should be directed, numbers that should be referenced (order number, loan number) and the date when such Partial Release is to be made, and (v) such other documents and information concerning such Partial Release as Lender may reasonably request;

(c)                A sum equal to the Partial Release Price, all accrued but unpaid interest attributable to the Partial Release Price and all outstanding costs or expenses then owing by Borrower to Lender including, without limitation, Borrower's reimbursement to Lender of all of Lender's reasonable costs and expenses incurred with respect to processing the subject Parcel Release, shall be tendered to Lender for application in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents.

(d)               No Event of Default shall have occurred and be then existing;

(e)                No event, claim, liability or circumstance shall have occurred which, in Lender's determination, could be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change;

(f)                Within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of such request, and in accordance with and pursuant to the terms and conditions of this section, Lender shall execute an instrument effecting such Partial Release ("Partial Release Instrument") and deliver same to the title company so specified; provided, however, that all reasonable costs and expenses of Lender associated with such Partial Release (including, but not limited to, Lender's reasonable legal fees) shall be paid by Borrower. Borrower shall also obtain all endorsements to the Title Insurance as may be reasonably required by Lender in connection with such Partial Release;

60
 

 

(g)               The execution and delivery of such Partial Release Instrument shall not affect any of Borrower's obligations under the Loan Documents, except that the payment of the Partial Release Price and associated sums described in subsection (c) above must be actually received by Lender. Regardless of the time such Partial Release Instrument is executed, delivered and recorded, the payment by Borrower to Lender in respect to such Partial Release shall be credited against the Indebtedness only upon receipt by Lender of the Partial Release Price and other required sums due hereunder. The Partial Release Instrument shall be delivered, in escrow, by Lender to the title company so designated, to be held, released, delivered and recorded, in accordance with Lender's escrow instructions, which shall require payment, in cash, of the Partial Release Price and other sums specified in subsection (c) above to Lender prior to delivery and recordation of the Partial Release Instrument.

(h)               Simultaneously with the effectuation of the Partial Release, the Release Parcel shall be conveyed so as to be owned by an entity other than Borrower.
