ARTICLE I

GENERAL TERMS

1.1. The Loan. On the Closing Date, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Lender shall make a loan to Borrower (the “Loan”) in an amount equal to the Loan Amount. The Loan shall initially be represented by the Note which shall bear interest as described in this Agreement at a per annum rate as provided in Section 1.3(a). The Loan shall be secured by the Collateral.

1.2. The Term.

(a) The Maturity Date of the Loan shall be the Payment Date in November 2009, as such date may be extended pursuant to Section 1.2(b), or such earlier date as may result from acceleration of the Loan during the continuance of an Event of Default in accordance with this Agreement.

(b) Borrower shall have two successive options to extend the scheduled Maturity Date of the Loan to the Payment Date in November 2010 and 2011, respectively (the period of each such extension, an “Extension Term”), provided that as a condition to each such extension, (i) Borrower shall deliver to Lender written notice of such extension at least 10 days and not more than 60 days prior to the Maturity Date as theretofore in effect; (ii) no Event of Default shall be continuing on either the date of such notice or the Maturity Date as theretofore in effect; (iii) Borrower shall have obtained an Extension Interest Rate Cap Agreement for the applicable Extension Term and collaterally assigned such Extension Interest Rate Cap Agreement to Lender pursuant to an Assignment of Interest Rate Cap Agreement; (iv) the term of the Mortgage Loan shall have been extended in accordance with the provisions of Section 1.2(b) of the Mortgage Loan Agreement and Property Owner shall have obtained and collaterally assigned to Mortgage Lender a Mortgage Loan Extension Interest Rate Cap Agreement for the applicable Extension Term; (v) with respect to the first Extension Term only, Property Owner shall have satisfied its obligations under Section 3.8(c) of the Mortgage Loan Agreement (unless extended in accordance herewith and with the Mortgage Loan Agreement), (vi) Borrower shall have paid all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Lender in connection with such extension, (vii) in respect of the first Extension Term, Borrower shall have achieved a Debt Yield of 8.05% for the last full Test Period ending prior to the Maturity Date as theretofore in effect and (viii) in respect of the second Extension Term, Borrower shall have achieved a Debt Yield of 8.30% for the last full Test Period ending prior to the Maturity Date as theretofore in effect (the foregoing Debt Yield tests to be determined in each case taking into account any prepayments made prior to or simultaneously with such extension in accordance with Section 2.1). If Borrower fails to exercise any extension option in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, such extension option, and any subsequent extension option hereunder, will automatically cease and terminate.

1.3. Interest and Principal.

(a) Commencing with the Initial Payment Date and on each and every Payment Date thereafter, Borrower shall pay interest on the portion of the Principal Indebtedness

 

36


evidenced by the Note for the Interest Accrual Period in which such Payment Date falls at a rate per annum equal to the sum of LIBOR, determined as of the applicable Interest Determination Date, plus the applicable Spread (except that interest shall be payable on the Indebtedness, including due but unpaid interest, at the Default Rate with respect to any portion of such Interest Accrual Period falling during the continuance of an Event of Default). Interest payable hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed.

(b) No prepayments of the Loan shall be permitted except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement. The entire outstanding Principal Indebtedness, together with all interest thereon through the end of the Interest Accrual Period in which the Maturity Date falls (calculated as if such Principal Indebtedness were outstanding for the entire Interest Accrual Period) and all other amounts then due under the Loan Documents shall be due and payable by Borrower to Lender on the Maturity Date.

(c) Upon written notice from Lender to Borrower (the “Componentization Notice”), the Note will be deemed to have been subdivided (retroactively as of the Closing) into multiple components (“Note Components”). Each Note Component shall have such notional balance (a “Component Balance”) as Lender shall specify in the Componentization Notice and an interest rate equal to the sum of LIBOR plus such amount as Lender shall specify in the Componentization Notice (each such amount, a “Component Spread”); provided that (i) the sum of the Component Balances of all Note Components relating to the Note shall equal the principal balance of such Note immediately prior to such subdivision, (ii) the initial weighted average of the Component Spreads of all Note Components relating to the Note, weighted on the basis of their respective Component Balances, shall equal the percentage set forth in clause (i) of the definition of “Spread” and (iii) the Componentization Notice shall not contain terms, provisions and clauses that are less favorable to Borrower than those contained in the Loan Documents as of the date hereof or which increase the obligations, or decrease the rights, of Borrower or any of its Affiliates hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents (in each case, other than the effects of an increase in the weighted average spread of the Component Spreads that may result from the sequential application of a prepayment (x) during the continuance of an Event of Default and (y) on account of Loss Proceeds, to the extent applied to prepay a portion of the Loan in accordance with Section 5.16). If requested by Lender, each Note Component shall be represented by a separate physical Note. Borrower shall have three Business Days from receipt of a Componentization Notice to object to same, it being understood that the sole basis on which Borrower may so object shall be that the requirements set forth in this subparagraph (c) have not been satisfied. Borrower shall execute and return to Lender a replacement Note reflecting such componentization within five Business Days after Borrower’s receipt of execution copies thereof. Subject to the terms of the Cooperation Agreement, the foregoing shall be at Lender’s expense, except that Borrower shall pay its own legal fees in respect thereof in an amount not to exceed $100,000 in the aggregate (and, Lender, in addition to paying all other costs and expenses in connection with the foregoing, shall pay all reasonable legal fees of Borrower in connection therewith in excess of the first $100,000 of legal fees payable by Borrower in respect thereof).

(d) Other than in the case of the payment in respect of principal due on the Maturity Date or upon acceleration of the Loan during the continuance of an Event of Default, any payments of interest not paid when due hereunder shall bear interest at the applicable

 

37


Default Rate and, when paid, shall be accompanied by a late fee in an amount equal to 3% times the amount of such late payment. Borrower acknowledges that (i) a delinquent payment will cause damage to Lender; (ii) the late fee is intended to compensate Lender for the loss of use of the delinquent payment and the expense incurred and time and effort associated with recovering the delinquent payment; (iii) it will be extremely difficult and impractical to ascertain the extent of Lender’s damages caused by the delinquency; and (iv) the late fee represents Lender’s and Borrower’s reasonable estimate of Lender’s damages from the delinquency and is not a penalty.

1.4. Interest Rate Cap Agreements.

(a) Within five Business Days after the date hereof, Borrower shall obtain, and thereafter maintain in effect (unless replaced pursuant to Section 1.4(e)), an Initial Interest Rate Cap Agreement, which shall be coterminous with the initial term of the Loan and have a notional amount that is not less than the Principal Indebtedness. Any Initial Interest Rate Cap Agreement shall have a LIBOR strike rate equal to or less than the then-applicable LIBOR Strike Rate.

(b) If Borrower exercises any of its options to extend the term of the Loan pursuant to Section 1.2(b), then on or prior to the commencement of the applicable Extension Term Borrower shall obtain, and thereafter maintain in effect (unless replaced pursuant to Section 1.4(e)), an Extension Interest Rate Cap Agreement having a term coterminous with such Extension Term, a notional amount that is not less than the Principal Indebtedness, and a LIBOR strike rate equal to or less than the then-applicable LIBOR Strike Rate.

(c) Borrower shall collaterally assign to Lender pursuant to an Assignment of Interest Rate Cap Agreement all of its right, title and interest in any and all payments under each Interest Rate Cap Agreement and shall deliver to Lender an executed counterpart of such Interest Rate Cap Agreement and obtain the consent of the Acceptable Counterparty to such collateral assignment (as evidenced by the Acceptable Counterparty’s execution of such Collateral Assignment of Interest Rate Cap Agreement).

(d) Borrower shall comply with all of its obligations under the terms and provisions of each Interest Rate Cap Agreement. All amounts paid under an Interest Rate Cap Agreement shall be deposited directly into an account specified by Lender. Borrower shall take all actions reasonably requested by Lender to enforce Lender’s rights under the Interest Rate Cap Agreement in the event of a default by the counterparty thereunder and shall not waive, amend or otherwise modify any of its material rights thereunder.

(e) If, at any time during the term of the Loan, the counterparty to the Interest Rate Cap Agreement then in effect ceases to be an Acceptable Counterparty and thereafter fails to abide by the requirements set forth in such Interest Rate Cap Agreement with respect to ratings downgrades, then Borrower shall promptly obtain a replacement Interest Rate Cap Agreement satisfying the requirements set forth in paragraph (a) or (b) above, as applicable, with a counterparty that is an Acceptable Counterparty, which replacement Interest Rate Cap Agreement shall be collaterally assigned to Lender as set forth in paragraph (c) above.

 

38


(f) At any time that Borrower obtains an Interest Rate Cap Agreement pursuant to this Section 1.4, Borrower shall cause to be delivered to Lender a legal opinion or opinions from counsel to the applicable Acceptable Counterparty (which counsel may be internal counsel) with respect to the enforceability, authority and other customary matters in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender.

(g) Borrower may, without Lender’s consent, cause the notional amount of any Interest Rate Cap Agreement to be reduced, dollar-for-dollar, by any actual prepayment of the Loan made in accordance herewith and Lender shall, at Borrower’s sole cost and expense, cooperate with Borrower in effecting such reduction, provided that the notional amount thereof shall at no time be less than the Principal Indebtedness.

1.5. Method and Place of Payment. Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, all payments and prepayments under this Agreement and the Notes (including any amounts payable to Lender from the Mortgage Loan Cash Management Account pursuant to Sections 3.2(b) of the Mortgage Loan Agreement) shall be made to Lender not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date when due and shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America by wire transfer in federal or other immediately available funds to the account specified in writing from time to time by Lender to Borrower. Any funds received by Lender after such time shall be deemed to have been paid on the next succeeding Business Day. Lender shall notify Borrower in writing of any changes in the account to which payments are to be made. If the amount received from Borrower (or from the Mortgage Loan Cash Management Account pursuant to Section 3.2(b) of the Mortgage Loan Agreement) is less than the sum of all amounts then due and payable or required to be deposited hereunder, such amount shall be applied, at Lender’s sole discretion, either toward the components of the Indebtedness (e.g., interest, principal and other amounts payable hereunder) and the Note Components in such sequence as Lender shall elect in its sole discretion (subject, as between the holders of the Notes, to any intercreditor agreement).

1.6. Regulatory Change. If, as a result of any Regulatory Change, any reserve, special deposit or similar requirements relating to any extensions of credit or other assets of, or any deposits with, any Lender is imposed, modified or deemed applicable and the result is to increase the cost to such Lender of making LIBOR-based loans, or to reduce the amount receivable by Lender hereunder in respect of any portion of the Loan with respect to LIBOR-based loans by a material amount (such increases in cost and reductions in amounts receivable, “Increased Costs”), then Borrower agrees that it will pay to Lender upon Lender’s request such additional amount or amounts (based upon a reasonable allocation thereof by such Lender to the LIBOR-based loans made by such Lender) as will compensate such Lender for such Increased Costs to the extent that such Increased Costs are reasonably allocable to the Loan. Lender will notify Borrower in writing of any event occurring after the Closing Date which will entitle Lender to compensation pursuant to this Section 1.6 as promptly as practicable after it obtains knowledge thereof and determines to request such compensation and will designate a different lending office if such designation will avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such compensation and will not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender. If such Lender shall fail to notify Borrower of any such event within 90 days following the end of the month during which such event occurred, then Borrower’s liability for any amounts described in this Section 1.6 incurred by such Lender as a

 

39


result of such event shall be limited to those attributable to the period occurring subsequent to the 90th day prior to the date upon which such Lender actually notified Borrower of the occurrence of such event. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall Borrower be required to compensate any Lender (i) for any portion of the income or franchise taxes of Lender, whether or not attributable to payments made by Borrower and (ii) unless the events giving rise to such compensation affect similarly situated banks or financial institutions generally and are not applicable to such lender solely or primarily by reason of such lender’s particular conduct or condition. If a Lender requests compensation under this Section 1.6, Borrower may, by notice to Lender, require that such Lender furnish to Borrower a statement setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting such compensation and the method for determining the amount thereof. This Section 1.6 shall apply only with respect to any portion of the Loan that is not contained in a Securitization. This Section 1.6 shall not apply to a regulatory change with respect to any taxes (including, but not limited to, U.S. Taxes).

1.7. Taxes.

(a) Borrower agrees to indemnify Lender against any present or future stamp, documentary or other similar or related taxes or other similar or related charges now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any United States Governmental Authority by reason of the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and any consents, waivers, amendments and enforcement of rights under the Loan Documents.

(b) If Borrower is required by law to withhold or deduct any amount from any payment hereunder in respect of any U.S. Tax, Borrower shall withhold or deduct the appropriate amount, remit such amount to the appropriate Governmental Authority and pay to each Person to whom there has been an Assignment or Participation of a Loan and who is not a U.S. Person such additional amounts as are necessary in order that the net payment of any amount due to such non-U.S. Person hereunder after deduction for or withholding in respect of any U.S. Tax imposed with respect to such payment (or in lieu thereof, payment of such U.S. Tax by such non-U.S. Person), will not be less than the amount stated in this Agreement to be then due and payable; except that the foregoing obligation to pay such additional amounts shall not apply (i) to the extent that Borrower would be required to withhold or deduct any U.S. Tax if a payment to an assignee would be made on the date of the Assignment or Participation (for the avoidance of doubt, Borrower shall not be required to pay any additional amounts under this Section 1.7(b) to the extent that the rate of withholding or payments to an assignee on any Payment Date is equal to or less than the rate of withholding that would apply to payments to such assignee if a payment was made on the date of such Assignment or Participation), (ii) to any assignee that has not complied with the obligations contained in Section 9.7(c), (iii) to any U.S. Taxes imposed solely by reason of the failure by such Person (or, if such Person is not the beneficial owner of the relevant Loan, such beneficial owner) to comply with applicable certification, information, documentation or other reporting requirements concerning the nationality, residence, identity or connections with the United States of America of such Person (or beneficial owner, as the case may be) if such compliance is required by statute or regulation of the United States of America as a precondition to relief or exemption from such U.S. Taxes; or (iv) with respect to any Person who is a fiduciary or partnership or other than the sole beneficial owner of such payment, to any U.S. Tax imposed with respect to payments made under any Note to a fiduciary or partnership to the extent that the beneficial owner or member of the partnership would not have been entitled to

 

40


the additional amounts if such beneficial owner or member of the partnership had been the holder of the Note. Within 30 days after paying any amount from which it is required by law to make any deduction or withholding, and within 30 days after it is required by law to remit such deduction or withholding to any relevant taxing or other authority, Borrower shall deliver to such non-U.S. Person satisfactory evidence of such deduction, withholding or payment (as the case may be). This Section 1.7(b) shall apply only with respect to any portion of the Loan that is not contained in a Securitization.

1.8. Lender Cooperation. Upon the repayment of the Indebtedness in full, at Borrower’s request, Lender shall execute and deliver to Borrower instruments (which will be in form appropriate for filing in the applicable jurisdiction(s), if applicable), prepared by Borrower and reasonably satisfactory to Lender, to release and discharge the Liens of the Loan Documents on all Collateral securing payment of the Indebtedness (in each case, subject to Borrower’s obligation to pay any associated fees and expenses), including all balances in the Collateral Accounts and the return of any Qualified Letters of Credit.

ARTICLE II

VOLUNTARY PREPAYMENT; ASSUMPTION

2.1. Voluntary Prepayment.

(a) Borrower may voluntarily prepay the Loan in whole or in part on any Business Day, except that no prepayments shall be permitted during the last two Business Days in any Interest Accrual Period unless such prepayment is accompanied by interest in respect of the next succeeding Interest Accrual Period as set forth in the next sentence. Each such prepayment shall be accompanied by (i) the amount of interest theretofore accrued but unpaid in respect of the principal amount so prepaid; plus (ii) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount so prepaid had it remained outstanding through the end of the Interest Accrual Period in which such prepayment is made (plus, in the case of a prepayment on one of the last two Business Days during an Interest Accrual Period, the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount so prepaid had it remained outstanding through the end of the Interest Accrual Period following the Interest Accrual Period in which such prepayment is made); and for avoidance of doubt, no interest shall be payable in respect of the amount so prepaid after payment of the amounts set forth herein on the date of such prepayment. In addition, if such prepayment is made during the Spread Maintenance Period, such prepayment shall be accompanied by the applicable Spread Maintenance Amount. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, (x) simultaneously with any voluntary prepayment of all or any portion of the Mortgage Loan Principal Indebtedness or the Junior Mezzanine Loan Principal Indebtedness (excluding any prepayment made pursuant to Section 2.5 of this Agreement, the Mortgage Loan Agreement and the Junior Mezzanine Loan Agreements), Borrower shall make a prepayment hereunder in the amount necessary so that the Principal Indebtedness, the Mortgage Loan Principal Indebtedness and the “Principal Indebtedness” under and as defined in each of the Junior Mezzanine Loan Agreements immediately after such prepayments are in the same proportion as they were immediately prior to such prepayments and (y) Borrower shall not be permitted to make a voluntary prepayment of the Loan hereunder (excluding any prepayment made pursuant to Section 2.5) unless

 

41


simultaneously therewith a prepayment of the Mortgage Loan and each Junior Mezzanine Loan shall also be made in the amount necessary so that the Principal Indebtedness, the Mortgage Loan Principal Indebtedness and the “Principal Indebtedness” under and as defined in each of the Junior Mezzanine Loan Agreements immediately after such prepayment are in the same proportion as they were immediately prior to such prepayments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein (x) simultaneously with any voluntary prepayment of all or any portion of the Junior Mezzanine Loan Principal Indebtedness pursuant to Section 2.5 of this Agreement, the Mortgage Loan Agreement and the Junior Mezzanine Loan Agreements, Borrower shall make a prepayment hereunder in the amount necessary so that the Principal Indebtedness and the “Principal Indebtedness” under and as defined in each of the Junior Mezzanine Loan Agreements immediately after such prepayments are in the same proportion as they were immediately prior to such prepayments and (y) Borrower shall not be permitted to make a voluntary prepayment of the Loan hereunder pursuant to Section 2.5 unless simultaneously therewith a prepayment under each Junior Mezzanine Loan shall also be made in the amount necessary so that the Principal Indebtedness and the “Principal Indebtedness” under and as defined in each of the Junior Mezzanine Loan Agreements immediately after such prepayment are in the same proportion as they were immediately prior to such prepayments. In the event that Borrower makes a prepayment of the Loan in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement on a Business Day that falls from and including the second to last day in an Interest Accrual Period to but excluding the first succeeding Interest Determination Date immediately following such Payment Date (each such period, an “Assumed Note Rate Period”), it may be impossible for Borrower and Lender to calculate with certainty the interest that would have accrued at the applicable interest rate on the amount then prepaid through the end of the Interest Accrual Period whose LIBOR is determined on such Interest Determination Date. Accordingly, in the event that any portion of the Loan is prepaid during an Assumed Note Rate Period, the interest that would have accrued on such prepaid amount at the applicable Interest Rate through the end of such Interest Accrual Period shall be estimated based on an interest rate (the “Assumed Note Rate”) equal to the sum of (i) LIBOR calculated in accordance with the definition of “LIBOR” herein, but assuming that the Interest Determination Date used in such definition is the date that is two Business Days prior to the date on which such prepayment is made, plus (ii) the applicable Spread, plus (iii) 1.00% (the amount of interest prepaid based on the foregoing calculation, the “Assumed Note Rate Payment”). Thereafter, on the Interest Determination Date for the applicable Interest Accrual Period, Lender shall determine LIBOR with respect to such Interest Accrual Period in accordance with the definition of “LIBOR” herein. If it is determined by Lender that LIBOR as so determined for the applicable Interest Accrual Period plus the applicable Spread is less than the Assumed Note Rate, Lender shall promptly refund to Borrower, without interest, an amount equal to the difference between (x) the Assumed Note Rate Payment and (y) the amount of interest which would have been payable on the prepaid amount based on LIBOR as determined on the Interest Determination Date. Alternatively, in the event that it is determined that LIBOR as determined on the Interest Determination Date plus the Spread is greater than the Assumed Note Rate, Borrowers shall pay to Lender, without additional interest or other late charges or penalties on the Payment Date that falls during such Interest Accrual Period an amount equal to the difference between (x) the amount of interest which would have been payable on the prepaid amount based on LIBOR as determined on the Interest Determination Date and (y) the Assumed Note Rate Payment.

 

42


(b) As a condition to any voluntary prepayment, Borrower shall give Lender written notice (a “Prepayment Notice”) of its intent to prepay, which notice must be given at least five Business Days and not more than 60 days prior to the Business Day upon which prepayment is to be made and must specify the Business Day on which such prepayment is to be made and the amount of such prepayment. If any such notice is given, then, subject to the immediately succeeding sentence, the amount specified in such notice will be due and payable on the date specified therein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if no Event of Default is then continuing, such Prepayment Notice may be rescinded or amended by written notice to Lender (for example, to adjourn the prepayment date or the amount of such prepayment) without the need to once again comply with the Prepayment Notice time period requirements set forth in the first sentence of this Section 2.1(b); provided, however, no such amendment shall result in Lender having fewer than two Business Days advance notice of the newly proposed prepayment date, and any such newly proposed prepayment date shall not be more than 30 days after the prepayment date specified in the original Prepayment Notice, and provided, further, that Borrower shall compensate Lender for any and all Damages incurred by Lender and/or its agents resulting from such rescission.

(c) If the Note has been bifurcated into multiple Note Components pursuant to Section 1.3(c), all voluntary prepayments of the Loan pursuant to this Section 2.1 and Section 2.5 shall be applied to the Note Components on a pro rata basis (as distinguished from sequentially) in proportion to their then-outstanding principal balance.

2.2. Property Releases.

(a) So long as no Event of Default is then continuing (other than an Event of Default that would be eliminated after giving effect to the release of the Mortgaged Property proposed to be released pursuant to Section 7.1(m)), Borrower may from time to time cause Property Owner to obtain the release of one or more of the Mortgaged Properties from the Liens of the Mortgage Loan Documents and cause Property Owner to Transfer such Mortgaged Property to an unaffiliated third party in an arms’-length transaction (except that, if the release is being effectuated pursuant to the provisions of Section 7.1(m), Borrower may cause Property Owner to Transfer such Mortgaged Property to an Affiliate of Borrower) upon satisfaction of the following conditions:

(i) Borrower shall deliver to Lender notice (a “Release Notice”) of its intent to cause Property Owner to release one or more of the Mortgaged Properties, which notice must be given at least 10 Business Days and not more than 60 days prior to the Business Day upon which the release is to be made and shall specify the Mortgaged Property or Mortgaged Properties that Borrower intends to cause Property Owner to release. Borrower shall promptly reimburse Lender for any actual out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of legal counsel and the Servicer) incurred by Lender in connection with a release pursuant to this Section 2.2.

(ii) At the time of such release: (1) Borrower shall prepay a portion of the Loan, in accordance with Section 2.1, in an amount equal to (x) subject to Section 2.2(c), the applicable Release Price, plus (y) any additional amount required to be prepaid in accordance with Section 2.2(c) in order to reduce the Release Price Deficit, which

(a) Borrower hereby grants a perfected first-priority security interest in favor of Lender in and to the Account Collateral as security for the Indebtedness, together with all rights of a secured party with respect thereto. Each Collateral Account shall be an Eligible Account under the sole dominion and control of Lender and shall be in the name of Borrower, as pledgor, and Lender, as pledgee. Borrower shall have no right to make withdrawals from any of the Collateral Accounts. Funds in those Collateral Accounts established pursuant to Section 3.9 shall not be commingled with any other monies at any time. Borrower shall execute any additional documents that Lender in its reasonable discretion may require and shall provide all other evidence reasonably requested by Lender to evidence or perfect its first-priority security interest in the Account Collateral.

(b) The insufficiency of amounts contained in the Collateral Accounts shall not relieve Borrower from its obligation to fulfill all covenants contained in the Loan Documents.

(c) During the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender may, in its sole discretion, apply funds in or related to the Collateral Accounts either toward the components of the Indebtedness (e.g., interest, principal and other amounts payable hereunder), the Loan and the Notes (and/or Note Components, as applicable) in such sequence as Lender shall elect in its sole discretion (subject, however, as between the holders of the Notes, to any intercreditor agreement).

3.6. Bankruptcy. Borrower and Lender acknowledge and agree that upon the filing of a bankruptcy petition by or against Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code, the Account Collateral shall be deemed not to be property of Borrower’s bankruptcy estate within the meaning of Section 541 of the Bankruptcy Code. If, however, a court of competent jurisdiction determines that, notwithstanding the foregoing characterization of the Account Collateral by Borrower and Lender, the Account Collateral does constitute property of Borrower’s bankruptcy estate, then Borrower and Lender further acknowledge and agree that all funds therein or to be deposited therein are and shall be cash collateral of Lender. Borrower acknowledges that Lender does not consent to Borrower’s use of such cash collateral and that, in the event Lender elects (in its sole discretion) to give such consent, such consent shall only be effective if given in writing signed by Lender. Except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, Borrower shall not have the right to use or apply or require the use or application of such cash collateral (i) unless

 

56


Borrower shall have received a court order authorizing the use of the same and (ii) Borrower shall have provided such adequate protection to Lender as shall be required by the bankruptcy court in accordance with the Bankruptcy Code.

3.7. Distributions from Mortgage Loan Low Debt Yield Reserve Account.

(a) It shall not be a Default or an Event of Default hereunder if, during the continuance of the Initial Cash Flow Reserve Period, provided no Event of Default or Trigger Period is otherwise continuing, Mortgage Lender releases to Operating Partnership on not less than five Business Days’ prior written notice from Property Owner, from and to the extent of amounts then contained in the Mortgage Loan Low Debt Yield Reserve Account, the amount (the “Preferred Equity Distribution Amount”) required to be distributed in respect of required periodic dividends or similar payments with respect to the existing preferred equity heretofore issued by the Operating Partnership or its subsidiary, as evidenced by a reasonably detailed Officer’s Certificate delivered to Lender. If the amounts so remitted from the Mortgage Loan Low Debt Yield Reserve Account exceed the Preferred Equity Distribution Amount, and so long as an Initial Cash Flow Reserve Period, Trigger Period, Junior Mezzanine Loan Event of Default, Mortgage Loan Event of Default or Event of Default is then continuing, Borrower shall cause Property Owner to cause such excess amounts to be remitted to the Mortgage Loan Cash Management Account prior to the next succeeding Payment Date.

(b) It shall not be a Default or an Event of Default hereunder if, during the continuance of the a Trigger Period, provided no Event of Default is otherwise continuing and the Mortgage Loan Sponsor Guaranty has theretofore terminated in accordance with its terms, Mortgage Lender releases to the Operating Partnership on not less than five Business Days’ prior written notice the lesser of (x) the Preferred Equity Distribution Amount or (y) the amount by which the balance in the Mortgage Loan Low Debt Yield Reserve Account exceeds the amount that would be contained therein if the Operating Partnership had made no remittances to the Mortgage Loan Cash Management Account subsequent to the payment of the previous Preferred Equity Distribution Amount, as evidenced by a reasonably detailed Officer’s Certificate delivered to Lender and Mortgage Lender. If the amounts so remitted from the Mortgage Loan Low Debt Yield Reserve Account exceed the Preferred Equity Distribution Amount, and so long as an Initial Cash Flow Reserve Period, Trigger Period, Junior Mezzanine Loan Event of Default, Mortgage Loan Event of Default or Event of Default is then continuing, Borrower shall cause Property Owner to cause such excess amounts to be remitted to the Mortgage Loan Cash Management Account prior to the next succeeding Payment Date.

(c) It shall not be a Default or an Event of Default hereunder if, during the continuance of the Initial Cash Flow Reserve Period or any Trigger Period, provided no Event of Default is otherwise continuing, Mortgage Lender releases to Property Owner, on not less than five Business Days’ prior written notice from Property Owner, from and to the extent of amounts then contained in the Mortgage Loan Low Debt Yield Reserve Account, the amount, not to exceed $3,000 per annum, that is required to be remitted to indirect minority equityholders of Operating Partnership in order to maintain the REIT status of the Operating Partnership’s equityholder (as evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate to such effect).

(b) On the Closing Date, Borrower shall, or shall cause Property Owner to, deposit or deliver Sufficient Reserve Collateral in an aggregate amount equal to $3,379,400, with any Cash Collateral so delivered to be withheld by Mortgage Lender from the proceeds of the Mortgage Loan that would otherwise be advanced to Property Owner pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Agreement and held in the Mortgage Loan Nashville Reserve Account. Such amount shall be remitted into the Mortgage Loan Cash Management Account (and any Qualified Letter of Credit delivered to Mortgage Lender pursuant to Section 3.16(b) of the Mortgage Loan Agreement shall be returned to Mortgage Borrower) only upon the earlier to occur of (x) receipt by Lender of an estoppel letter reasonably satisfactory to Lender that provides Lender with customary mortgagee protections satisfying rating agency requirements (and the equivalent in respect of the Mortgage Loan and the Junior Mezzanine Loans) or (y) the Mortgaged Property located in Nashville, Tennessee and known as the Hampton Inn, Briley is released from the Collateral and the Mortgage Loan Collateral in accordance with this Agreement and the Mortgage Loan Agreement.

3.9. Mortgage Loan Covenants; Replacement of Mortgage Loan Collateral Accounts.

(a) Borrower hereby covenants that it shall cause Property Owner to fully comply in all material respects with each of the covenants of Property Owner set forth in Article III of the Mortgage Loan Agreement, including, without limitation, Section 3.15 thereof and the last sentence of each of Sections 3.6(c), 3.7(b), 3.8(b), 3.10(b) and 3.11(b) thereof, notwithstanding any waiver or future amendment of such covenants by Mortgage Lender and Property Owner (other than with respect to payments to Mortgage Lender of Mortgage Loan Indebtedness, which may have been waived or reduced by Mortgage Lender). Borrower acknowledges that the obligation to comply with such covenants by Borrower is separate from, and may be enforced independently from, the obligations of Property Owner under the Mortgage Loan Agreement.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if at any time and for any reason, Property Owner is no longer maintaining any of the Mortgage Loan Collateral Accounts in accordance with the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents (including, for these purposes, any Qualified Letter of Credit or Qualified Guarantee delivered in lieu of cash), (i) Borrower shall be required to immediately establish and maintain with banking institutions selected by Lender and reasonably approved by Borrower and for the benefit of Lender, reserves in replacement and substitution thereof, which substitute reserves shall be subject to all of the same terms and conditions applicable under the Mortgage Loan Documents with respect to the Mortgage Loan Collateral Account(s) being replaced (including the option of delivering Qualified Letters of Credit and/or Qualified Guarantees in lieu of cash reserves and

 

58


the right of Lender to replace the banking institution where such substitute reserves are maintained), it being the intent of Lender and Borrower that such substitute reserves replicate in purpose and function the Mortgage Loan Collateral Account(s) no longer held by the Mortgage Lender; and (ii) Borrower shall remit, or cause Property Owner (to the extent permitted under the Mortgage Loan Documents) to remit, to such approved banking institution for the benefit of Lender any funds from the Mortgage Loan Collateral Accounts that were remaining in such reserves at the time of the termination of such reserves for the purpose of funding the equivalent substitute reserves. Borrower hereby pledges, assigns and grants a security interest to Lender, as security for payment of all sums due under the Loan and the performance of all other terms, conditions and provisions of the Loan Documents and this Agreement on Borrower’s part to be paid and performed, of all Borrower’s right, title and interest in and to such substitute reserves and the accounts in which the same may be held and agrees that Borrower shall not, without obtaining the prior written consent of Lender (which consent shall be given or withheld in Lender’s sole discretion), further pledge, assign or grant any security interest in any such replacement reserves or account in which the same may be held, or permit any lien or encumbrance to attach thereto, or any levy to be made thereon, or any Uniform Commercial Code financing statements, except those naming Lender as the secured party, to be filed with respect thereto. This Agreement is, among other things, intended by the parties to be a security agreement for purposes of the Uniform Commercial Code in effect in New York and each other jurisdiction in which any accounts may be located.

 

59


(c) Simultaneously with the repayment of the Mortgage Loan in full, unless the Loan is also being repaid in full, Borrower and Lender shall have established, in a manner reasonably satisfactory to Lender, new collateral accounts (corresponding to each Mortgage Loan Collateral Account) pledged to and under the control of Lender in which shall be reserved the same amounts that would have been reserved in the corresponding Mortgage Loan Collateral Accounts if the Mortgage Loan Documents were still in effect and no prepayments had been made thereunder. In full or partial satisfaction of the foregoing obligations (as the case may be), Borrower may (i) cause to be delivered to Lender any Qualified Letter of Credit and/or any Qualified Guarantee which would have been required to be delivered to Mortgage Lender had the Mortgage Loan not been fully repaid and (ii) cause Property Owner to cause Mortgage Lender to assign to Lender, at Borrower’s sole cost, any Qualified Letter of Credit and/or any Qualified Guarantee in Mortgage Lender’s possession as of the date of the repayment of the Mortgage Loan.

(d) Simultaneously with the repayment of the Mortgage Loan in full, unless the Loan is also being repaid in full, Borrower shall cause Sponsor to execute, and deliver to Lender, a guaranty in favor of Lender substantially in the form of the Mortgage Loan Sponsor Guaranty, provided, that the aggregate maximum liability of Sponsor under such guaranty shall be reduced on a dollar-for-dollar basis by any amounts theretofore paid thereon.

(e) Borrower shall, and shall cause Operating Partnership, Sponsor and Property Owner to, execute any and all documents reasonably necessary for the implementation or furtherance of the actions contemplated in this Section 3.9.

To Borrower’s knowledge, the Mortgage Loan Permitted Encumbrances do not and will not affect or interfere with the value, or current use or operation, of the TRS Lessee Pledged Collateral, or the security intended to be provided by the Mortgages, in each case, other than in a way that would not have a Material Adverse Effect. No creditor of TRS Lessee other than Mortgage Lender has in its possession any goods that constitute or evidence the TRS Lessee Pledged Collateral.

(e) Each Encumbered Property Owner owns good, marketable and insurable fee or leasehold title, as applicable, to its respective Encumbered Property and good and marketable title to the related personal property (to the extent not owned by the tenants (including any operating lessee), guests or employees at the Encumbered Properties), in each case free and clear of all Liens whatsoever except for Liens securing the Encumbered Property Indebtedness and any Liens that would constitute “Mortgage Loan Permitted Encumbrances” hereunder or any analogous term under any of the Encumbered Property Indebtedness Documents.

(a) To Borrower’s knowledge, except for items set forth on Schedule F and in the Engineering Reports, the Mortgaged Properties (including sidewalks, storm drainage system, roof, plumbing system, HVAC system, fire protection system, electrical system, equipment, elevators, exterior sidings and doors, irrigation system and all structural components) are in good condition, order and repair in all respects material to its use, operation or value.

67

5.7. Leases.

(a) Borrower shall, or shall cause Property Owner to, furnish Lender with executed copies of all Major Leases, together with a detailed breakdown of income and cost associated therewith. All Leases executed after the date hereof and renewals or amendments of Leases after the date hereof must be entered into on an arms-length basis with Tenants whose identity and creditworthiness are appropriate for tenancy in a property of comparable quality and nature to the applicable Mortgaged Property, must provide for rental rates and other economic terms which, taken as a whole, are at least equivalent to then-existing market rates, based on the applicable market, and must contain terms and conditions that are commercially reasonable (in each case, unless Lender consents to such Lease in its sole discretion); provided, however, that the foregoing limitations and consent rights shall not apply to any renewal or amendment of any existing Lease which Property Owner or TRS Lessee is obligated to execute and deliver after the date hereof in accordance with the terms and conditions of such existing Lease, in each case, to the extent the terms of such renewal or amendment are dictated by the provisions of such existing Lease. All new Leases must provide that they are subject and subordinate to any current or future mortgage financing on the Mortgaged Properties and that the Tenants agree to attorn to any foreclosing mortgagee at such mortgagee’s request, provided, that the foregoing subordination and attornment obligations may be conditioned upon the receipt from Mortgage Lender of a subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement substantially in the form attached as Exhibit B to the Mortgage Loan Agreement and with such changes as may be commercially reasonably requested by Tenant. To the extent any such Tenant’s subordination and attornment obligations under any such new Lease are conditioned on the receipt of a subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement from Mortgage Lender, Borrower shall, or shall cause Property Owner to, pay all reasonable, out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including attorney’s fees) of Lender and Mortgage Lender incurred in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution and delivery of such subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement.

Each request for approval of a Lease which is submitted to Lender in an envelope marked “URGENT – LENDER’S ATTENTION REQUIRED WITHIN 10 BUSINESS DAYS”, together with a copy of the proposed Lease, a summary of the material

 

76


economic terms thereof and any termination and other material options contained therein, and copies of all written materials obtained by Borrower or Property Owner in connection with its evaluation of the creditworthiness of the proposed Tenant or, with respect to a proposed termination, a description of the reason therefor, shall be deemed approved if Lender shall not have notified the Borrower in writing of its disapproval within 10 Business Days after receipt of such submission. For the avoidance of doubt, the deemed approval provision of the immediately preceding sentence shall not apply to any proposed TRS Lease or amendment thereto. Mortgage Lender’s execution and delivery of a subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement to the Tenant of any future Major Lease shall be subject to the approval of Lender, provided, that Lender shall be deemed to have consented to the same if Lender has approved such Major Lease and such subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement is in substantially the form attached as Exhibit B to the Mortgage Loan Agreement, with such changes as may be commercially reasonably requested by Tenant and a fully executed copy thereof is delivered to Lender.

(c) Borrower shall cause Property Owner to (i) observe and perform (or cause to be observed and performed) in a commercially reasonable manner all the material obligations imposed upon the lessor under the Leases and the TRS Lease; (ii) enforce in a commercially reasonable manner all of the material terms, covenants and conditions contained (x) in the case of Leases, on the part of the lessee or (y) in the case of TRS Leases, on the part of the TRS Lessees, thereunder to be observed or performed, short of termination thereof, except that Borrower may cause Property Owner to terminate (or cause the termination of) any Lease following a material default thereunder by the respective Tenant or, in the case of Leases which are not Material Leases, if such termination would not have a Material Adverse Effect; (iii) not collect any of the rents thereunder more than one month in advance of its due date (other than security deposits held in accordance with the terms of this Agreement); (iv) not execute any assignment of lessor’s interest in the Leases or TRS Leases or associated rents other than the assignments of rents and leases under the Mortgages; and (v) not cancel or terminate any guarantee of any of the Major Leases or TRS Leases without the prior written consent of Lender, which consent, in the absence of a continuing Event of Default, shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. Except as otherwise explicitly set forth herein (including, without limitation, in Section 2.4 hereof and of the Mortgage Loan Agreement), no TRS Lease may be terminated by Property Owner without the prior written consent of Lender, which may be withheld in Lender’s sole discretion.

(d) Security deposits of Tenants under all Leases, whether held in cash or any other form, shall not be commingled with any other funds of Borrower, Property Owner, Property Owner GP or TRS Lessee and, if cash, Borrower shall cause the same to be deposited (or caused to be deposited) by Property Owner or TRS Lessee at such commercial or savings bank or banks as may be reasonably satisfactory to Mortgage Lender (or Lender, if the Mortgage Loan is no longer outstanding or Mortgage Lender is otherwise not requiring Property Owner or TRS Lessee to be in compliance with Section 5.7(d) of the Mortgage Loan Agreement) and Property Owner’s or TRS Lessee’s rights thereto pledged to Mortgage Lender (or Lender, if the Mortgage Loan is no longer outstanding or Mortgage Lender is otherwise not requiring Property Owner or TRS Lessee to be in compliance with Section 5.7(d) of the Mortgage Loan Agreement). Any bond or other instrument which Property Owner or TRS Lessee is permitted to hold in lieu of cash security deposits under any applicable Legal Requirements shall be

 

77


maintained in full force and effect unless replaced by cash deposits as described above, shall be issued by an institution reasonably satisfactory to Mortgage Lender (or Lender, if the Mortgage Loan is no longer outstanding or Mortgage Lender is otherwise not requiring Property Owner or TRS Lessee to be in compliance with Section 5.7(d) of the Mortgage Loan Agreement), shall (if not prohibited by any Legal Requirements) name Mortgage Lender as payee or mortgagee (or name Lender as payee, if the Mortgage Loan is no longer outstanding or Mortgage Lender is otherwise not requiring Property Owner or TRS Lessee to be in compliance with Section 5.7(d) of the Mortgage Loan Agreement) thereunder (or be fully assignable to Mortgage Lender (or Lender, if the Mortgage Loan is no longer outstanding or Mortgage Lender is otherwise not requiring Property Owner or TRS Lessee to be in compliance with Section 5.7(d) of the Mortgage Loan Agreement)) or may name Property Owner or TRS Lessee as payee thereunder so long as such bond or other instrument is pledged to Mortgage Lender (or Lender, if the Mortgage Loan is no longer outstanding or Mortgage Lender is otherwise not requiring Property Owner or TRS Lessee to be in compliance with Section 5.7(d) of the Mortgage Loan Agreement) as security for the Indebtedness and shall, in all respects, comply with any applicable Legal Requirements and otherwise be reasonably satisfactory to Mortgage Lender (or Lender, if the Mortgage Loan is no longer outstanding or Mortgage Lender is otherwise not requiring Property Owner or TRS Lessee to be in compliance with Section 5.7(d) of the Mortgage Loan Agreement). Borrower shall (or shall cause Property Owner or TRS Lessee to), upon Lender’s request, provide Lender with evidence reasonably satisfactory to Lender of Borrower’s, Property Owner’s and TRS Lessee’s compliance with the foregoing. During the continuance of any Event of Default, subject to the rights of Mortgage Lender under the Mortgage Loan Documents, Borrower shall (or shall cause Property Owner or TRS Lessee to), upon Lender’s request, deposit with Lender in an Eligible Account pledged to Lender an amount equal to the aggregate security deposits of the Tenants (and any interest theretofore earned on such security deposits and actually received by Property Owner or TRS Lessee) which Property Owner or TRS Lessee had not returned to the applicable Tenants or applied in accordance with the terms of the applicable Lease, and Lender shall hold such security deposits in a segregated account in accordance with the applicable Lease.

(e) Borrower shall provide a copy of each notice of default or event of default delivered or received by Property Owner under the TRS Leases.

(a) Each Mortgaged Property shall be managed at all times by an Approved Property Manager pursuant to an Approved Management Agreement. As a condition to the Closing (or reasonably promptly after the Closing Date), except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, each Approved Property Manager shall agree with Lender in writing that its Approved Management Agreement, and all fees (including any incentive fees) thereunder, are subject and subordinate to the Indebtedness and that no fees payable (including any incentive fees) thereunder shall accrue as between such Approved Property Manager and Lender as a result of Property Owner’s or TRS Lessee’s failure to pay any amounts (without in any way implying any obligation on the part of Lender to pay any fees payable by Property Owner or TRS Lessee to any Approved Property Manager), and that such Approved Management Agreement may be terminated under the circumstances set forth herein, and that such Approved Property Manager shall release Borrower, Property Owner and TRS Lessee from any and all liabilities of any and every kind accruing prior to the date of any foreclosure or conveyance in lieu of foreclosure by Lender. Borrower may permit Property Owner from time to time to appoint one or more successor managers, which successor managers shall be Approved Property Managers, to manage Mortgaged Properties pursuant to one or more Approved Management Agreements, and such successor managers shall execute for Lender’s benefit Subordinations of Property Management Agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender. Borrower may permit Property Owner or TRS Lessee to, from time to time modify or replace an Approved Management Agreement, but any material modification or replacement agreement shall be subject to Lender’s prior written consent (which consent shall not, in the absence of a continuing Event of Default, be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) and, in the event of the Securitization of the Loan, Rating Confirmation. No new Approved Management Agreement hereafter entered into shall provide for management fees in excess of 4% of gross revenues without Lender’s prior written consent.

(b) Each Mortgaged Property shall at all times be branded pursuant to an Approved Franchise Agreement between Property Owner or TRS Lessee and an Approved Franchisor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender agrees that, if the Borrower requests Lender’s consent to the replacement of any existing franchisor for one or more of the Mortgaged Properties with a Person that is a franchisor in respect of any of the other Mortgaged Properties and such replacement franchisor is within a lower chain scale (as defined by Smith Travel Research) than the franchisor it will succeed, Lender shall promptly, and in any case within 30 days of request by the Borrower and Lender’s receipt of the net present value calculation described below, consent to such replacement, provided only that the net present value of the Mortgaged Property would be greater after giving effect to the new franchise agreement than the net present value of the Mortgaged Property before giving effect thereto as substantiated by a net present value analysis prepared by Borrower (or, as applicable, Property Owner or TRS Lessee),

 

79


that includes cash flows projections under which the proposed successor franchisor and the existing franchisor would franchise the hotel at the Mortgaged Property, including any required capital expenditures (i.e., a comparative analysis as to the economic benefit of the successor franchisor assuming such role). Borrower may permit Property Owner or TRS Lessee to, from time to time modify an Approved Franchise Agreement or replace an Approved Franchisor with a successor Approved Franchisor pursuant to an Approved Franchise Agreement, but any such modification or replacement of an Approved Franchise Agreement shall be subject to Lender’s prior written consent (which consent shall not, in the absence of a continuing Event of Default, be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) and Lender’s receipt of a Franchise Comfort Letter from the successor Approved Franchisor.

(c) Borrower shall cause Property Owner to cause TRS Lessee and each Approved Property Manager (including any successor Approved Property Manager) to maintain at all times worker’s compensation insurance as required by any applicable Governmental Authority.

(d) Borrower shall notify Lender in writing of any material default of Property Owner, TRS Lessee or an Approved Property Manager under any of the Approved Management Agreements, after the expiration of any applicable cure periods, of which Borrower or Property Owner has actual knowledge. Lender shall have the right, after reasonable notice to Borrower, Property Owner or TRS Lessee and in accordance with the applicable Subordination of Property Management Agreement, to cure material defaults of Property Owner or TRS Lessee under such Approved Management Agreement. Any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Lender to cure any such default in accordance with such Subordination of Property Management Agreement shall constitute a part of the Indebtedness and shall be due from Borrower upon demand by Lender. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in the case of a default by Property Owner or TRS Lessee under any Approved Management Agreement relating to a failure to provide adequate working capital in respect of payroll and related employee expenses or otherwise, Borrower shall, or shall cause Property Owner or TRS Lessee to, cure any such default promptly upon its or Property Owner’s or TRS Lessee’s receipt of notice thereof from the applicable Approved Property Manager and in any event by no later than five Business Days prior to the expiration of any applicable cure periods provided under the applicable Approved Management Agreement.

(e) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender may, in its sole discretion, (1) terminate or require Borrower to terminate, or cause to be terminated, one or more of the Approved Management Agreements and engage one or more Approved Property Managers selected by Lender to serve as replacement Approved Property Managers pursuant to Approved Management Agreements; and/or (2) to the extent permitted under the Approved Franchise Agreements, terminate or require Borrower to terminate, or cause to be terminated, one or more of the Approved Franchisors and, if requested by Lender, engage one or more Approved Franchisors selected by Lender to serve as replacement Approved Franchisors pursuant to Approved Franchise Agreements.

(f) Upon the filing of a bankruptcy petition or the occurrence of a similar event with respect to an Approved Property Manager or Approved Franchisor, or a material default by an Approved Property Manager or Approved Franchisor that is reasonably likely to

 

80


have a Material Adverse Effect upon the applicable Mortgaged Property (beyond the expiration of any applicable cure period) under an Approved Management Agreement or Approved Franchise Agreement,

(i) to the extent permitted under the applicable Approved Management Agreement or the applicable Subordination of Property Management Agreement, Lender may, in its sole discretion, require Borrower to terminate, or cause to be terminated, the applicable Approved Management Agreement and cause Borrower to engage, or cause to be engaged, one or more replacement Approved Property Managers pursuant to Approved Management Agreements; and

(ii) to the extent permitted under the applicable Approved Franchise Agreement, Lender may, in its sole discretion, require Borrower to terminate, or cause to be terminated, the applicable Approved Franchise Agreement and cause Borrower to engage, or cause to be engaged, one or more replacement Approved Franchisors pursuant to Approved Franchise Agreements.

(g) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in connection with the closing, Lender agrees to enter into reasonably satisfactory subordination and non-disturbance agreements with Hilton brands with respect to any Approved Management Agreements that terminate within 18 months after the Closing Date, pursuant to which Lender will not have the termination rights specified herein; provided, that any renewal or replacement thereof shall be subject to the subordination and other requirements specified herein without regard to this clause (g). In addition, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in connection with the closing, Lender agrees to enter into reasonably satisfactory subordination and non-disturbance agreements with Hyatt brands with respect to any Approved Management Agreement, pursuant to which Lender will not have the termination rights specified herein; provided, that any renewal or replacement thereof shall be subject to the subordination and other requirements specified herein without regard to this clause (g).

Together with Borrower’s and Property Owner’s annual financial statements, Borrower shall furnish, or cause to be furnished, to Lender:

At least 15 days prior to the commencement of each subsequent Fiscal Year during the term of the Loan, and at least 30 days after the commencement of any Trigger Period or Event of Default (provided such Event of Default is then continuing), Borrower shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Lender an Annual Budget for the Mortgaged Properties prepared by Property Owner in good faith for the ensuing Fiscal Year and, promptly after preparation thereof, any subsequent revisions thereto.

Borrower shall cause each Encumbered Property Owner, promptly upon receipt of any notice of breach or default under any Encumbered Property Indebtedness Documents, to deliver a copy of the same to Lender and to grant access to, and otherwise cooperate with, Lender to permit Lender to cure such default to the same extent, and subject to the same conditions, as the right granted to Lender under Section 7.2(c) to cure an Event of Default with respect to any Mortgaged Property.

(b) During the continuance of any Mortgage Loan Event of Default, Lender may, but without any obligation to do so and without notice to or demand on Borrower or Property Owner and without releasing Borrower from any obligation hereunder, take any action to cure such Mortgage Loan Event of Default.

Borrower shall not, and shall cause Property Owner not to, perform or contract to perform any Material Alteration without the prior written consent of Lender, which consent (in the absence of a continuing Event of Default) shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. With regard to any action described in this Section 6.13 for which Lender’s consent is required, Lender shall not withhold, condition or delay its consent or disapproval to any such action for more than ten Business Days after request for approval thereof has been made, or caused to be made, by Borrower, accompanied by a detailed description of the request for which approval is sought, provided, that Borrower submits, or cause to be submitted, such request for Lender’s approval in an envelope marked “URGENT – LENDER’S ATTENTION REQUIRED WITHIN TEN BUSINESS DAYS”. If Lender shall fail to respond to Borrower’s request to approve or disapprove same within ten Business Days of Lender’s receipt thereof, Borrower may deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Lender a second request for consent in an envelope marked “LENDER’S FAILURE TO RESPOND TO THE ENCLOSED REQUEST WITHIN TEN BUSINESS DAYS SHALL BE DEEMED LENDER’S APPROVAL.” In the event Lender fails to approve or disapprove such request within ten Business Days of Lender’s receipt of such second request, such request shall be deemed approved.

If Lender’s consent is requested hereunder with respect to a Material Alteration, Lender may retain a construction consultant reasonably acceptable to Borrower to review such request and, if such request is granted, Lender may retain a construction consultant reasonably acceptable to Borrower to inspect the work from time to time. Borrower shall, on demand by Lender, reimburse Lender for the reasonable fees and disbursements of such consultant.

6.14. Advances and Investments. Borrower shall not, and shall cause Property Owner, TRS Lessee and any Single-Purpose Equityholder not to, lend money or make advances to any Person, or purchase or acquire any stock, obligations or securities of, or any other interest in, or make any capital contribution to, any Person, except for Permitted Investments.

(i) initiate or support any limiting change in the permitted uses of any of the Mortgaged Properties (or to the extent applicable, zoning reclassification of any of the Mortgaged Properties) or any portion thereof, seek any variance under existing land use restrictions, laws, rules or regulations (or, to the extent applicable, zoning ordinances) applicable to any Mortgaged Property, or use or permit the use of any Mortgaged Property in a manner that would result in the use of such Mortgaged Property becoming a nonconforming use under applicable land-use restrictions or zoning ordinances or that would violate the terms of any Major Lease, Legal Requirement or Permitted Encumbrance in a manner that would have a Material Adverse Effect;

(ii) consent to any modification, amendment or supplement to any of the terms of any Permitted Encumbrance in a manner that would have a Material Adverse Effect, or default in any of its material obligations under a Permitted Encumbrance;

(iii) impose or consent to the imposition of any restrictive covenants, easements or encumbrances upon a Mortgaged Property in any manner that would have a Material Adverse Effect;

(v) permit or consent to any of the Mortgaged Properties being used by the public or any Person in such manner as might make possible a claim of adverse usage or possession or of any implied dedication or easement.

6.17. Waste. Borrower shall not, and shall cause Property Owner not to, commit or permit any waste on the Mortgaged Properties so as to result in a Material Adverse Effect, nor take any actions that might invalidate any insurance required to be carried on the Mortgaged Properties pursuant to this Agreement (and Borrower shall promptly correct, or cause to be corrected, any such actions of which Borrower or Property Owner becomes aware).

 

92


6.18 TRS Lessee. With respect to TRS Lessee’s operation of the Properties, Borrower shall cause TRS Lessee to comply with all of the negative covenants set forth in this Agreement and no default hereunder shall be excused by virtue of the fact that such default was caused by a TRS Lessee (by way of example, if any TRS Lessee initiated a zoning change not permitted hereunder, the same shall constitute a violation of Section 6.16).

6.19. Refinancing of the Mortgage Loan. Borrower shall not permit Property Owner to replace the Mortgage Loan with other mortgage financing secured by all or any of the Properties without Lender’s prior written consent unless the Loan is contemporaneously repaid in full.

97


7.2. Remedies.

(a) During the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender may by written notice to Borrower, in addition to any other rights or remedies available pursuant to this Agreement, the Notes, the Pledge Agreement and the other Loan Documents, at law or in equity, declare by written notice to Borrower all or any portion of the Indebtedness to be immediately due and payable, whereupon all or such portion of the Indebtedness shall so become due and payable, and Lender may enforce or avail itself of any or all rights or remedies provided in the Loan Documents against Borrower and the Collateral (including all rights or remedies available at law or in equity); provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Event of Default specified in Section 7.1(d) shall occur, then the Indebtedness shall immediately become due and payable without the giving of any notice or other action by Lender. Any actions taken by Lender shall be cumulative and concurrent and may be pursued independently, singly, successively, together or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Lender may determine in its sole discretion, to the fullest extent permitted by law, without impairing or otherwise affecting the other rights and remedies of Lender permitted by law, equity or contract or as set forth in this Agreement or in the other Loan Documents.

(b) If Lender forecloses on the Collateral, Lender shall apply all net proceeds of such foreclosure to repay the Indebtedness, the Indebtedness shall be reduced to the extent of such net proceeds and the remaining portion of the Indebtedness shall remain outstanding and secured by the Collateral and the other Loan Documents, it being understood and agreed by Borrower that Borrower is liable for the repayment of all the Indebtedness; provided, however, that at the election of Lender, the Notes shall be deemed to have been accelerated only to the extent of the net proceeds actually received by Lender with respect to the Collateral and applied in reduction of the Indebtedness.

(c) During the continuance of any Event of Default, Lender may, but without any obligation to do so and without notice to or demand on Borrower and without releasing Borrower from any obligation hereunder, take any action to cure such Event of Default. Lender may appear in, defend, or bring any action or proceeding to protect its interest in the Collateral or to foreclose the security interests granted pursuant to the Pledge Agreement or collect the Indebtedness. The costs and expenses incurred by Lender in exercising rights under this paragraph (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), with interest at the Default Rate for the period after notice from Lender that such costs or expenses were incurred to the date of payment to Lender, shall constitute a portion of the Indebtedness, shall be secured by the Pledge Agreement and other Loan Documents and shall be due and payable to Lender upon demand therefor.

(d) Interest shall accrue on any judgment obtained by Lender in connection with its enforcement of the Loan at a rate of interest equal to the Default Rate.

7.3. No Waiver. No delay or omission to exercise any remedy, right or power accruing upon an Event of Default shall impair any such remedy, right or power or shall be construed as a waiver thereof, but any such remedy, right or power may be exercised from time

 

98


to time and as often as may be deemed by Lender to be expedient. A waiver of any Default or Event of Default shall not be construed to be a waiver of any subsequent Default or Event of Default or to impair any remedy, right or power consequent thereon.

7.4. Application of Payments after an Event of Default. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, during the continuance of an Event of Default, all amounts received by Lender in respect of the Loan shall be applied at Lender’s sole discretion either toward the components of the Indebtedness (e.g., Lender’s expenses in enforcing the Loan, interest, principal and other amounts payable hereunder), and the Note Components in such sequence as Lender shall elect in its sole discretion (subject, as between the holders of the notes to any intercreditor agreement).

In the case of an Assignment, (i) each assignee shall have, to the extent of such Assignment, the rights, benefits and obligations of the assigning Lender as a “Lender” hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (ii) the assigning Lender shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to an Assignment, relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations under this Agreement and (iii) one Lender shall serve as agent for all Lenders and shall be the sole Lender to whom notices, requests and other communications shall be addressed and the sole party authorized to grant or withhold consents hereunder on behalf of Lenders (subject, in each case, to appointment of a Servicer, pursuant to Section 9.22, to receive such notices, requests and other communications and/or to grant or withhold consents, as the case may be) and to be the sole Lender to designate the account to which payments shall be made by Borrower to Lenders hereunder. Goldman Sachs Mortgage Company or, upon appointment of a Servicer, such Servicer, shall maintain, or cause to be maintained, as agent for Borrower, a register on which it shall enter the name or names of the registered owner or owners from time to time of the Notes. Lender shall permit Borrower to review the register as needed for Borrower to comply with its obligations under this Agreement, the Loan Documents or any applicable law, regulation or procedure. Borrower agrees that upon effectiveness of any Assignment of any Note in part, Borrower will promptly provide to the assignor and the assignee separate promissory notes in the amount of their respective interests (but, if applicable, with a notation thereon that it is given in substitution for and replacement of an original Note or any replacement thereof), and otherwise in the form of such Note, upon return of the Note then being replaced. The assigning Lender shall notify in writing each of the other Lenders of any Assignment. Each potential or actual assignee, participant or investor in a Securitization of the Loan, and each Rating Agency, shall be entitled to receive all information received by Lender under this Agreement. After the effectiveness of any Assignment, the party conveying the Assignment shall provide notice to Borrower and each Lender of the identity and address of the assignee. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, after an Assignment, the assigning Lender (in addition to the assignee) shall continue to have the benefits of any indemnifications contained in this Agreement which such assigning Lender had prior to such assignment with respect to matters occurring prior to the date of such assignment.

(c) If, pursuant to this Section 9.7, any interest in this Agreement or any Note is transferred to any transferee that is not a U.S. Person, the transferor Lender shall cause such transferee, concurrently with the effectiveness of such transfer, (i) to furnish to Borrower and/or the transferor Lender either Form W-8BEN or Form W-8ECI or any other form in order to establish an exemption from, or reduction in the rate of, U.S. withholding tax on all interest payments hereunder and (ii) to agree (for the benefit of Lender and Borrower) to provide Borrower and the transferor Lender a new Form W-8BEN or Form W-8ECI or any forms

reasonably requested in order to establish an exemption from, or reduction in the rate of, U.S. withholding tax upon the expiration or obsolescence of any previously delivered form and comparable statements in accordance with applicable U.S. laws and regulations and amendments duly executed and completed by such transferee, and to comply from time to time with all applicable U.S. laws and regulations with regard to such withholding tax exemption.

9.8. Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

9.9. Preferences. Lender shall have no obligation to marshal any assets in favor of Borrower or any other party or against or in payment of any or all of the obligations of Borrower pursuant to this Agreement, the Notes or any other Loan Document. To the extent Borrower makes a payment or payments to Lender, which payment or proceeds or any portion thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then, to the extent of such payment or proceeds received, the obligations hereunder or portion thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continue in full force and effect, as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by Lender.

9.10. [Intentionally Omitted].

9.11. Offsets, Counterclaims and Defenses. All payments made by Borrower hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall be made irrespective of, and without any deduction for, any setoffs or counterclaims. Borrower waives the right to assert a counterclaim, other than a mandatory or compulsory counterclaim, in any action or proceeding brought against it by Lender arising out of or in any way connected with the Notes, this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or the Indebtedness, but Borrower may bring a separate claim against Lender. Any assignee of Lender’s interest in the Loan shall take the same free and clear of all offsets, counterclaims or defenses which are unrelated to the Loan.

9.12. No Joint Venture. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to create a joint venture, partnership, tenancy-in-common, or joint tenancy relationship between Borrower and Lender, nor to grant Lender any interest in the Collateral other than that of pledgee or lender.

9.13. Conflict; Construction of Documents. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and the provisions of the Notes, the Pledge Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Agreement shall prevail.

9.14. Brokers and Financial Advisors. Borrower represents that it has dealt with no financial advisors, brokers, underwriters, placement agents, agents or finders in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Borrower shall indemnify and hold Lender harmless from and against any and all claims, liabilities, costs and expenses of any kind in any way relating to or arising from a claim by any Person that such Person acted on behalf of

9.15. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument.

Any prospective purchaser of any interest in a Loan shall be permitted to rely on such certificate.

(b) After written request by Borrower not more than twice annually, Lender shall furnish Borrower a statement setting forth (i) the amount of the original principal amount of the Note, (ii) the unpaid principal amount of the Note Components, (iii) the rate of interest of the Note Components, (iv) if Lender holds any Collateral Accounts as provided in Section 3.9, the balance of the sums in such accounts, if any; and (v) a statement regarding whether Lender has delivered to Borrower notice of an Event of Default.

9.17. Payment of Expenses. Borrower shall reimburse Lender upon receipt of written notice from Lender for (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Lender (or any of its affiliates) in connection with the origination of the Loan, including legal fees and disbursements, accounting fees, and the costs of the Appraisal, the Engineering Report, the Qualified Title Insurance Policy, the Qualified Survey, the Environmental Report and any other third-party diligence materials; (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Lender (or any of its affiliates) in connection with (A) monitoring Borrower’s ongoing performance of and compliance with Borrower’s agreements and covenants contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents on its part to be performed or complied with after the Closing Date, including confirming compliance with environmental and insurance requirements, in each case, in connection with an actual or imminent Default by Borrower, as determined by Lender, (B) the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and administration of any consents, amendments, waivers or other modifications to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other documents or matters requested by Borrower or by Lender, except for any request made by Lender in connection with any Assignment, Participation or Securitization, (C) filing fees and expenses and other similar expenses incurred in creating and perfecting the Liens in favor of Lender pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (D) enforcing or preserving any rights, in response to third party claims or the prosecuting or defending of any action or proceeding or other litigation, in each case against, under or affecting

For the avoidance of doubt, subject to the terms of the Cooperation Agreement, Lender shall pay the reasonable third party costs and expenses incurred by Borrower in connection with the matters set forth in Section 1.3(c) or any Securitization, except for the first $100,000 of Borrower’s legal fees in connection therewith.

9.18. No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents are solely for the benefit of Lender and Borrower, and nothing contained in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to confer upon anyone other than Lender and Borrower any right to insist upon or to enforce the performance or observance of any of the obligations contained herein or therein. All conditions to the obligations of Lender to make the Loan hereunder are imposed solely and exclusively for the benefit of Lender, and no other Person shall have standing to require satisfaction of such conditions in accordance with their terms or be entitled to assume that Lender will refuse to make the Loan in the absence of strict compliance with any or all thereof, and no other Person shall under any circumstances be deemed to be a beneficiary of such conditions, any or all of which may be freely waived in whole or in part by Lender if, in Lender’s sole discretion, Lender deems it advisable or desirable to do so.

9.19. Recourse.

(a) Except for any obligations of any Person under a Loan Document to which it is a party, no recourse shall be had for the Indebtedness or for the performance or observation of any other obligation under this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents against any Affiliate of Borrower or any officer, director, partner or equityholder of Borrower or any such Affiliate. There shall be no limit on Lender’s recourse against Borrower.

(b) Borrower shall indemnify Lender and hold Lender harmless from and against any and all Damages to Lender (including the legal and other expenses of enforcing the obligations of Borrower under this Section 9.19) resulting from or arising out of any of the following (the “Indemnified Liabilities”):

(i) any fraud or intentional misrepresentation committed by Borrower, Property Owner, Property Owner GP, TRS Lessee, Operating Partnership, Sponsor or any of their respective Affiliates in connection with the Loan and/or the Mortgage Loan;

 

106


(ii) the misappropriation or misapplication (in violation of the Loan Documents and/or the Mortgage Loan Documents) by Borrower, Property Owner, Property Owner GP, TRS Lessee, Operating Partnership, Sponsor or any of their respective Affiliates of any funds (including misappropriation or misapplication of Revenues, security deposits, sales proceeds, Loss Proceeds and/or any excess proceeds from Mortgage Lender’s exercise of any of its remedies under the Mortgage Loan Documents remaining after payment in full of the Mortgage Loan Indebtedness and the violation of the last sentence of Section 5.7(d) of this Agreement and/or the Mortgage Loan Agreement and any failure by the Operating Partnership to remit or cause to be remitted all net revenues generated by the Encumbered Properties in the possession or control of the Operating Partnership or its Affiliates, including but not limited to net revenues from the sale of all or any part of the Encumbered Properties, or sales of full or partial interests in the Encumbered Properties, into the Mortgage Loan Cash Management Account or a Mortgage Loan Blocked Account, in each case pursuant to and solely to the extent required under Section 3.1(b)(ii) of the Mortgage Loan Agreement);

(iii) any Transfer of any of the Mortgaged Properties, the Collateral, the Mortgage Loan Collateral or any other direct or, except as described in Section 7.1(f), indirect interests in Borrower, Property Owner, Property Owner GP or TRS Lessee or any Lien which is prohibited hereunder and/or under the Mortgage Loan Documents;

(iv) any breach by Borrower, Property Owner, Property Owner GP, TRS Lessee, Operating Partnership or Sponsor of any representation or covenant regarding environmental matters contained in this Agreement or in the Environmental Indemnity Agreement;

(v) the occurrence of any filing by Borrower, Property Owner, Property Owner GP, TRS Lessee or any Junior Mezzanine Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code or any joining or colluding by Borrower, Property Owner, Property Owner GP, TRS Lessee, any Junior Mezzanine Borrower or any of their Affiliates (including Sponsor and Operating Partnership) in the filing of an involuntary case in respect of Borrower, Property Owner, Property Owner GP, TRS Lessee or any Junior Mezzanine Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code;

107


(viii) failure of Borrower to deliver any certificates which evidence the equity interests pledged by Borrower pursuant to the Pledge Agreement to Lender, together with an executed stock, membership or partnership power, as applicable, in blank; and

(ix) Borrower’s failure to notify Lender or cause Lender to be notified of the receipt by the Encumbered Property Owner of a written notice of default (specifically denominated as such) under any Encumbered Property Indebtedness Document and/or Borrower’s failure to reasonably cooperate with Lender to permit Lender to cure the default, in each case if, and only if, a Whitehall Knowledge Party is aware of same, in each case pursuant to Section 5.21.

(c) The foregoing limitations on personal liability shall in no way impair or constitute a waiver of the validity of the Notes, the Indebtedness secured by the Collateral, or the Liens on the Collateral, or the right of Lender, as pledgee or secured party, to foreclose and/or enforce its rights with respect to the Collateral after an Event of Default. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to be a waiver of any right which Lender may have under the United States Bankruptcy Code to file a claim for the full amount of the debt owing to Lender by Borrower or to require that all Collateral shall continue to secure all of the Indebtedness owing to Lender in accordance with the Loan Documents. Lender may seek a judgment on the Note (and, if necessary, name Borrower in such suit) as part of judicial proceedings to foreclose under the Pledge Agreement or to foreclose pursuant to any other Loan Documents, or as a prerequisite to any such foreclosure or to confirm any foreclosure or sale pursuant to power of sale thereunder, and in the event any suit is brought on the Notes, or with respect to any Indebtedness or any judgment rendered in such judicial proceedings, such judgment shall constitute a Lien on and will be and can be enforced on and against the Collateral and the rents, profits, issues, products and proceeds thereof. Nothing in this Agreement shall impair the right of Lender to accelerate the maturity of the Note upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, nor shall anything in this Agreement impair or be construed to impair the right of Lender to seek personal judgments, and to enforce all rights and remedies under applicable law against any guarantors (including, without limitation, Sponsor and Operating Partnership) to the extent allowed by any applicable guarantees (including, without limitation, the Recourse Guaranty). The provisions set forth in this Section 9.19 are not intended as a release or discharge of the obligations due under the Note or under any Collateral Documents, but are intended as a limitation, to the extent provided in this Section, on Lender’s right to sue for a deficiency or seek a personal judgment against Borrower or Sponsors.

9.20. Right of Set-Off. In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law or otherwise, and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender may from time to time, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind (all of such rights being hereby expressly waived), set-off and appropriate and apply any and all deposits (general or special) and any other indebtedness at any time held or owing by Lender (including branches, agencies or Affiliates of Lender wherever located) to or for the credit or the account of Borrower against the obligations and liabilities of Borrower to Lender hereunder, under the Notes, the other Loan Documents or otherwise, irrespective of whether Lender shall have made any demand hereunder and although such obligations, liabilities or claims, or any of them, may be contingent or unmatured, and any such set-off shall be deemed to have been made immediately upon the occurrence of an Event of Default even though such charge is made or entered on the books of Lender subsequent thereto.

 

108


9.21. Exculpation of Lender. Lender neither undertakes nor assumes any responsibility or duty to Borrower or any other party to select, review, inspect, examine, supervise, pass judgment upon or inform Borrower or any third party of (a) the existence, quality, adequacy or suitability of Appraisals of the Mortgaged Properties or other Mortgage Loan Collateral or the Collateral, (b) any environmental report or (c) any other matters or items, including engineering, soils and seismic reports which are contemplated in the Loan Documents or in the Mortgage Loan Documents. Any such selection, review, inspection, examination and the like, and any other due diligence conducted by Lender, is solely for the purpose of protecting Lender’s rights under the Loan Documents, and shall not render Lender liable to Borrower or any third party for the existence, sufficiency, accuracy, completeness or legality thereof.

9.22. Servicer. Lender may delegate any and all rights and obligations of Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents to the Servicer upon notice by Lender to Borrower, whereupon any notice or consent from the Servicer to Borrower, and any action by the Servicer on Lender’s behalf, shall have the same force and effect as if Servicer were Lender. Borrower shall not be responsible for any set-up fees or any other costs relating to or arising under the agreement entered into between Lender and Servicer.

9.23. Prior Agreements. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS CONTAIN THE ENTIRE AGREEMENT OF THE PARTIES HERETO AND THERETO IN RESPECT OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY AND THEREBY, AND ALL PRIOR AGREEMENTS AMONG OR BETWEEN SUCH PARTIES, WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN, INCLUDING ANY TERM SHEETS, CONFIDENTIALITY AGREEMENTS AND COMMITMENT LETTERS, ARE SUPERSEDED BY THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS.

AND SUBORDINATION OF MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT

(Mezzanine A)

THIS CONSENT AND AGREEMENT OF MANAGER AND SUBORDINATION OF MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of [            ], 2007, is made by and among [                    ], a [                    ] (“Manager”), GOLDMAN SACHS MORTGAGE COMPANY, a New York limited partnership (together with its successors and permitted assigns, “Lender”), and, for the purpose of evidencing its consent to the terms, covenants and conditions contained herein, is joined by W2007 EQUITY INNS SENIOR MEZZ, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Borrower”), W2007 EQUITY INNS REALTY, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Realty LLC”), and W2007 EQUITY INNS REALTY, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“Realty LP”; and together with Realty LLC, individually and collectively, as the context requires, and together with their respective successors and permitted assigns, “Property Owner”), and the operating lessees identified on Schedule B (the “TRS Lessees”).

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, Borrower and Lender are parties to that certain Mezzanine A Loan Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (as the same may be modified or replaced, the “Loan Agreement”; all capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meaning given such terms in the Loan Agreement);

WHEREAS, Borrower is (i) the sole member of Realty LLC, (ii) the sole limited partner of Realty LP, and (iii) the sole member of W2007 Equity Realty Gen-Par, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“GP”), the general partner of Realty LP.

WHEREAS, Property Owner owns certain fee simple and/or leasehold estates and appurtenant interests in those certain parcels of real property identified as the “Mortgaged Properties” in the Loan Agreement, together with the buildings, structures and other improvements now or hereafter located thereon or thereunder (such parcels of real property being hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Properties”);

WHEREAS, Property Owner, as lessor, and the TRS Lessees, as lessees, are parties to those certain operating lease agreements identified on Schedule B attached hereto, each dated as of the date hereof (the “TRS Leases”), pursuant to which the TRS Lessees lease and operate certain of the Properties;

WHEREAS, the Loan is evidenced by one or more promissory notes, each dated as of the date hereof, executed by Borrower and payable to the order of Lender (as the same may be amended, restated, replaced, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, collectively, the “Note”) and is secured by, among other things, that certain Pledge and Security Agreement (Mezzanine A), dated as of even date herewith (the “Pledge Agreement”), which


grants to Lender, among other things, a first lien on (i) 100% of the limited liability company interests in Realty LLC, (ii) 100% of the limited partnership interests in Realty LP, and (iii) 100% of the limited liability company interests in GP;

WHEREAS, pursuant to those certain hotel management agreements identified on Schedule C attached hereto, each by and between one or more of the TRS Lessees and Manager (the “Management Agreement”), Manager has agreed to operate, direct, manage and supervise the Property or Properties listed on Schedule A attached hereto (collectively, the “Managed Properties”; and each, a “Managed Property”); and

WHEREAS, Borrower is required to cause Manager to deliver this Agreement to Lender pursuant to the terms of the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and in order to induce Lender to accept the Pledge Agreement, Manager hereby represents, warrants, covenants and agrees for the benefit of Lender as follows:

1. Representations. Manager warrants and represents to Lender, as of the date hereof, that the following are true and correct:

(a) Manager has agreed to act as manager of the Managed Properties pursuant to the Management Agreements. A true, correct and complete copy of each of the Management Agreements has been provided to Lender on or prior to the date hereof, each of which is in full force and effect, and none of the Management Agreements has been modified or amended.

(b) The entire agreement between Manager, on the one hand, and Borrower, Property Owner and/or the TRS Lessees, on the other hand, for the management and operation of the Managed Properties is evidenced by the Management Agreements, together with those certain agreements identified on Schedule D attached hereto.

(c) Each of the Management Agreements has been executed by the duly authorized officer(s) of Manager and constitutes the valid and binding agreement of Manager, enforceable in accordance with its terms, and Manager has full authority under all state and local laws and regulations to perform all of its obligations under such Management Agreement.

(d) Neither the applicable TRS Lessee nor Manager is in default in the performance of any of its respective obligations under any of the Management Agreements. All payments and fees required to be paid by the TRS Lessees to Manager thereunder have been paid to the date hereof and Manager has no claims against Borrower, Property Owner or any TRS Lessee for indemnification as of the date hereof.

(e) None of Manager, any of its affiliates or, to Manager’s knowledge, any party other than Property Owner or the TRS Lessees, owns any interest in any fixtures, equipment, or other articles of personal property located at each of the Managed Properties, including without limitation, the FF&E located at each of the Managed Properties.

2. [Intentionally Omitted.]


3. Agreements. Notwithstanding the terms of the Management Agreements, so long as the Pledge Agreement continues in effect, Manager hereby consents to and covenants and agrees as follows:

(a) No Amendment of Management Agreements. Manager shall not make any material modifications or amendments to any of the Management Agreements without first obtaining Lender’s written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and Rating Confirmation, and no such modification or amendment without such written consent and Rating Confirmation shall be effective as to Lender.

(b) Notice to Lender and Right to Cure.

(i) Manager shall deliver to Lender a copy of any notice of termination or default from Manager to any TRS Lessee under any of the Management Agreements, which notice may be given by Manager to Lender simultaneously with such notice to the applicable TRS Lessee.

(ii) If Manager has elected to terminate the Management Agreement with respect to any of the Managed Properties as a result of a breach or default by any TRS Lessee thereunder, Manager shall give Lender at least 45 days’ (or, in the case of a breach or default by such TRS Lessee relating to its failure to provide adequate working capital in respect of payroll and related employee expenses, ten Business Days’ (which ten Business Day period shall begin to run from the date Manager gives Lender notice of such default pursuant to Section 3(b)(i) in accordance with Section 9)) prior written notice of such election to terminate and the reasons therefor, which notice may be delivered to Lender simultaneously with the notice to such TRS Lessee. In the event Lender (or Property Owner or any TRS Lessee) shall cure, or cause to be cured, such breach or default within said 45 day period (or, in the case of a breach or default by a TRS Lessee relating to its failure to provide adequate working capital in respect of payroll and related employee expenses, ten Business Day period), then any termination notice related to such cause shall be null and void and of no further force or effect.

(c) Subordination of Management Agreements to Liens of the Loan Documents. The Management Agreements do not create an interest in real property or constitute covenants running with any of the Managed Properties. The Management Agreements and any and all liens, rights and interests (whether choate or inchoate and including, without limitation, all rights to payment (including, without limitation, any management fees and incentive fees payable to Manager under the Management Agreements) and all mechanic’s and materialmen’s liens under applicable law) owed or claimed by Manager or held by Manager in and to any of the Managed Properties are and shall be in all respects subordinate and inferior to: (i) Lender’s right to payment under the Note and the other Loan Documents, and (ii) the liens and security interests created or to be created for the benefit of Lender and securing the repayment of the Note, including, without limitation, those created under the Pledge Agreement encumbering the Collateral, and all renewals, extensions, increases, supplements, amendments, modifications and replacements of each of the foregoing. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Manager hereby specifically acknowledges and agrees to the terms of (i) Section 5.10 of each of the Loan Agreement and the Mortgage Loan Agreement relating to the management of the


Managed Properties, (ii) Section 5.16 of each of the Loan Agreement and the Mortgage Loan Agreement relating to the application of Loss Proceeds to the restoration and repair of the Managed Properties following casualty and condemnation, and (iii) Article III of each of the Loan Agreement and the Mortgage Loan Agreement relating to management of Revenue from the Managed Properties, as such provisions of the Loan Agreement and the Mortgage Loan Agreement exist as of the date of this Agreement.

(d) Lender’s Right to Terminate.

(i) During the continuance of an Event of Default under the Loan Agreement, Manager shall, at the request of Lender, continue performance, on behalf of Lender, of all of Manager’s obligations under the terms of the Management Agreements, notwithstanding any counterclaim, right of set-off, claim for additional payment, defense or like right of Manager against any TRS Lessee or any TRS Lessee’s default (including non-payment) under, or breach of, any of the Management Agreements, provided, that Lender sends to Manager the notice set forth in Section 3(h) hereof and performs or causes to be performed the obligations of TRS Lessees to Manager under the applicable Management Agreements (including payment of any management fees) accruing or arising from and after, and with respect to the period commencing upon, the effective date of such notice.

(ii) (A) During the continuance of an Event of Default under the Loan Agreement, regardless of whether Lender has theretofore exercised its rights under Section 3(d)(i) above; or (B) if Manager files or is the subject of a petition (and, in the case of an involuntary petition, such petition is not dismissed or discharged within 60 days) in bankruptcy, or if a trustee or receiver is appointed for Manager’s assets or if Manager makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or if Manager is adjudicated insolvent; then, in each such case, Lender shall have the right and option to terminate, or to cause to be terminated, the Management Agreements with respect to the applicable Managed Property or Managed Properties or with respect to all of the Managed Properties by giving Manager 30 days’ prior written notice of such termination, in which event Manager shall resign as manager of the applicable Managed Property or Managed Properties effective not later than the end of such 30 day period and, without limiting any rights of Manager against the TRS Lessees (except that such rights are subordinated to the repayment in full of all of the Indebtedness to the extent set forth in Section 3(c)), Lender shall neither be bound by nor obligated to perform the covenants and obligations of the TRS Lessees under the Management Agreements. For purposes of this Section 3(d)(ii), an Event of Default shall be deemed to continue even after a foreclosure or other conveyance-in-lieu of foreclosure upon any or all of the Managed Properties and/or the Collateral. Without limiting the rights of Manager against the TRS Lessees prior to a foreclosure or conveyance-in-lieu of foreclosure with respect to all or a portion of the Collateral (except that such rights are subordinated to the repayment in full of all of the Indebtedness to the extent set forth in Section 3(c)), Manager agrees not to look to Lender, Borrower, Property Owner or TRS Lessee for payment of any cancellation or termination fees or payment of any accrued but unpaid management fees relating to any of the Managed Properties accruing prior to the effective date of the notice set forth in Section 3(h) hereof or those which may occur prior to any notice of termination if such


notice is prior to the notice set forth in Section 3(h) hereof, and shall release Borrower, Property Owner and TRS Lessee from any and all liabilities of any and every kind accruing prior to the date of any such foreclosure or conveyance-in-lieu of foreclosure. In no event shall Lender be directly or indirectly liable for any action or omission of Borrower or Property Owner or any prior owner of any of the Managed Properties or be subject to any counterclaim or claims which any TRS Lessee might assert or is entitled to assert against Borrower or Property Owner, to the extent such action, omission, claim or counterclaim occurred or arose prior to Lender’s foreclosure or conveyance-in-lieu of foreclosure of all or any part of the Collateral.

(iii) Notwithstanding anything in the Management Agreements to the contrary, in the event that (A) Lender becomes the owner of Property Owner through foreclosure, conveyance in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise, and (B) the Management Agreements with respect to one or more of the Managed Properties is then in full force and effect, then, without the execution of any further instrument, Manager shall fully and completely recognize Lender as the owner of Property Owner for the balance of the term thereof and any extension or renewal thereof (subject to the right of Lender to terminate, or cause to be terminated, the Management Agreements pursuant to Section 3(d)(ii)). The provisions of this Section 3(d)(iii) shall be effective and self-operative without the execution of any further instrument.

(iv) In the event that Lender becomes the owner of Property Owner, Lender shall have the right to (A) sell, convey, transfer or otherwise assign its interest in Property Owner and/or (B) cause Property Owner to sell, convey, transfer or otherwise assign Property Owner’s interest in any or all of the Managed Properties, in each case, without the consent of Manager and immediately upon such transfer or assignment, Lender, Property Owner and the TRS Lessees shall be released from, and have no further liability or obligations under, the applicable Management Agreements to Manager or to any other Person in respect of any of such Managed Properties, except for those liabilities and obligations in respect of any of such Managed Properties which by the express terms of such Management Agreements survive after the termination of the Management Agreements in respect of such Managed Properties, but only to the extent that such liabilities and obligations first arise after the date on which Lender becomes owner of Property Owner and only to the extent accruing during Lender’s ownership thereof.

(v) Nothing contained in this Agreement (including, but not limited to, Section 3(c) hereof) shall prevent Manager from terminating the Management Agreement in accordance with its terms by reason of nonpayment when due of any management fees or other fees and reimbursements due and owing to Manager under the terms of the Management Agreement (in each case, after any applicable notice and cure periods set forth therein), subject in each case to the terms of Section 3(b) hereof.

(e) Rights of First Offer. To the extent that any Management Agreement or any other agreement to which Manager or any affiliate of Manager is a party grants Manager or any such affiliate a right of first offer or similar right to purchase any one or more of the


Managed Properties upon the occurrence of a sale or transfer of such Managed Property, or a sale or transfer of any direct or indirect ownership interest in Property Owner or any TRS Lessee, Manager agrees, for the benefit of Borrower and Lender, that such right of first offer or similar right will not apply in the case of (i) the acquisition of Equity Inns, Inc. and its subsidiaries by affiliates of the Whitehall Street Global Real Estate Limited Partnership 2007, as more fully described in that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of June 20, 2007 or (ii) any foreclosure by Lender or any nominee of Lender, or the receipt of a conveyance-in-lieu of foreclosure by Lender or any such nominee, or the first sale or transfer of any direct or indirect ownership interest in Property Owner or any TRS Lessee by Lender or its nominee subsequent to such foreclosure or receipt of a conveyance-in-lieu thereof.

(f) Further Assurances. Manager further agrees to: (i) furnish Lender upon request with copies of such information as Property Owner is entitled to receive under the Management Agreements; and (ii) subject of the rights of tenants or other occupants, and subject to the rights of any ground lessors (as applicable), cooperate with Lender’s representative in any inspection of all or any portion of any of the Managed Properties. Each of Borrower and Property Owner hereby consents to the foregoing agreements by Manager.

(g) Assignment of Leases and Rents. Manager acknowledges that, as further security for the Note, Borrower has caused Property Owner and the TRS Lessees to execute and deliver to Mortgage Lender, with respect to each of the Managed Properties, certain assignments of rents and leases (which may be contained in the applicable Mortgages), each dated as of the date hereof (each, an “Assignment of Leases”), assigning to Mortgage Lender, among other things, all of Property Owner’s and TRS Lessees’ right, title and interest in and to all of the leases now or hereafter affecting such Managed Property and all rents, income, receivables, receipts, revenues, deposits and other consideration of whatever form or nature received by or paid to or for the account of or benefit of the TRS Lessees or Property Owner or their respective agents or employees from any and all sources arising from or attributable to such Managed Property.

(h) Lender Not Obligated Under Management Agreements. Manager further agrees that nothing herein shall impose upon Lender any obligation for payment or performance in favor of Manager, unless Lender notifies Manager in writing during the continuance of an Event of Default under the Loan Agreement or otherwise as permitted by the Loan Agreement, that: (i) Lender has elected to assert or cause the assertion of the applicable TRS Lessee’s rights and/or the rights of Borrower and Property Owner (if any) under the Management Agreement(s) with respect to a Managed Property or Managed Properties and assume its obligations thereunder with respect to such Managed Property or Managed Properties, and (ii) Lender agrees to pay, or cause to be paid to, Manager the sums due Manager with respect to such Managed Property or Managed Properties under the terms of the relevant Management Agreements from and after the effective date of Lender’s notice to Manager. In no event shall Lender be liable for any action or omission of Borrower, Property Owner, the TRS Lessees or any prior owner of any of the Managed Properties, bound by any amendment or modification of any of the Management Agreements or any of the Related Senior Management Consents (as defined in Schedule D attached hereto) made without Lender’s prior written consent or subject to any counterclaim or claims which Manager might assert or is entitled to assert against Borrower, Property Owner or any TRS Lessee. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed a waiver or release by


Manager of any rights or remedies Manager may have against the TRS Lessees under the Management Agreements (except that such rights are subordinated to the repayment in full of each and all of the Indebtedness to the extent set forth in Section 3(c)).

(i) No Joint Venture. Lender has no obligation to Manager with respect to the Loan Agreement or the other Loan Documents, and Manager shall not be a third party beneficiary with respect to any of Lender’s obligations to Borrower, Property Owner or the TRS Lessees set forth in the Loan Documents. The relationship of Lender to Borrower is one of a creditor to a debtor, and Lender is not a joint venturer or partner of Borrower.

(j) Lender’s Reliance on Representations. Manager has executed this Agreement with full knowledge that Lender shall rely upon the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements herein contained.

(k) Governed by Loan Documents. Manager agrees that until such time as all of the Liens of the Pledge Agreement encumbering the Collateral shall be released in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, in the course of discharging its duties under the Management Agreements, Manager shall not knowingly engage in any act or activity, or knowingly fail to engage in any act or activity, which engagement or failure to engage would constitute a violation of any affirmative or negative covenant of Borrower under the Loan Agreement, or of Property Owner under any of the Mortgage Loan Agreement, the Mortgages or the Assignments of Leases encumbering any of the Managed Properties, or with respect to the operation or management of the Managed Properties; provided, however, that (i) Manager’s compliance with the foregoing agreement, to the extent such compliance requires the expenditure of funds, shall at all times be expressly conditioned upon the timely provision to Manager of such funds, (ii) the term “knowingly” as used above shall mean that the applicable affirmative or negative covenant of such Borrower has been disclosed and described to Manager, (iii) the foregoing agreement shall not impose any obligation or duty on Manager to review any of the Loan Documents (but without limiting the provisions of Section 3(c)), and (iv) the foregoing agreement of Manager shall not impose upon Manager any obligation to perform services not within the scope of Manager’s duties or authority as set forth in the Management Agreements.

(l) Successors and Assigns. Manager understands that Lender may assign this Agreement and the Loan Agreement, the Note, the Pledge Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Manager agrees that this Agreement and its obligations hereunder shall be binding upon it and its successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of Lender and its successors and assigns, including, without limitation, any parties to whom Lender’s interest in the Note and the Pledge Agreement is assigned.

(m) Loan Agreement. Manager hereby agrees that Manager shall, within one Business Day after receipt, deposit into the Mortgage Loan Cash Management Account or the Mortgage Loan Blocked Accounts, each under the control of Mortgage Lender, all cash receipts of Property Owner or TRS Lessees from the operation of the Managed Properties or otherwise arising in respect thereof (collectively, the “Operating Revenues”) received or collected by Manager; and Manager shall cause all credit card receipts from the operation of all of the Managed Properties to be paid directly into the Mortgage Loan Cash Management Account or the Mortgage Loan Blocked Accounts. Manager shall not commingle any Operating Revenues


received by it with respect to any of the Managed Properties with any of its other funds or property. Manager acknowledges and agrees that Manager shall not have any right or authority, whether express or implied, to close, make use of or withdraw any funds from, any such depository account.

(n) Not Entitled to Operating Revenues. Manager acknowledges and agrees that it is collecting and processing the Operating Revenues from the Managed Properties solely as the agent for the TRS Lessees, and Manager has no right to, or title in, such Operating Revenues. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Management Agreements, Manager acknowledges and agrees that the Operating Revenues from the Managed Properties are the sole property of the TRS Lessees, encumbered by the liens of the Mortgages and the other Mortgage Loan Documents in favor of Mortgage Lender. In any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding, Manager, or any trustee acting on behalf of the Manager, waives any claim to such Operating Revenues.

(o) Examination of Books and Records. Lender shall have the right to inspect and make copies of the books, accounts and records of Manager that relate to the Managed Properties or the Management Agreements up to four times per year (or at any time during the continuance of an Event of Default under the Loan Agreement), all at reasonable times and upon reasonable advance notice to Manager. Each of Borrower and Property Owner hereby consents to the foregoing rights granted to Lender.

(p) Liquor Licenses. To the extent Manager or an affiliate thereof is the holder of the Permits required for the provision of alcoholic beverages at any of the Managed Properties, in the event that the Management Agreement is terminated for any reason with respect to any such Managed Properties, Borrower, Property Owner, the applicable TRS Lessee and Manager shall cooperate with, and Manager shall cause its affiliates to cooperate with, Lender to the extent permitted under applicable laws (i) to facilitate the orderly transfer to Mortgage Lender or its designee of such Permits in respect of the applicable Managed Property, and (ii) to enable the continued provision of alcoholic beverages and operation of liquor services at the applicable Managed Properties without interruption, in either case, until such time as Mortgage Lender or its designee shall have obtained such Permits.

4. Termination of the TRS Leases. The parties agree that the Management Agreements and the rights and benefits of Manager thereunder shall not be terminated or disturbed in any respect as a result of the termination of any TRS Lease. Accordingly, if a TRS Lease is terminated for any reason, including, without limitation, expiration of the term thereof or the “rejection” thereof following bankruptcy of the applicable TRS Lessee (collectively, a “Lease Termination”), each of Borrower and Property Owner: (a) shall recognize Manager’s rights under the relevant Management Agreement, (b) agrees that Manager shall not be named as a party in any eviction or other possessory action or proceeding, and that Manager shall not be disturbed in its right to manage the relevant Managed Property pursuant to the relevant Management Agreement, and (c) agrees that Property Owner shall at the time of or prior to such Lease Termination, at its option, either (x) assume all of TRS Lessee’s rights, benefits, privileges and obligations under the relevant Management Agreement with respect to periods after the Lease Termination, or (y) provide a substitute lease reasonably acceptable to Manager and Lender and cause the lessee thereunder to assume all of the applicable TRS Lessee’s rights, benefits, privileges and obligations under the relevant Management Agreement with respect to periods after the Lease Termination.


5. Limitation on Liability. MANAGER, FOR ITSELF AND ITS OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, DIRECTORS AND AGENTS AND THEIR RESPECTIVE SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS, HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE OBLIGATIONS AND LIABILITY OF LENDER UNDER THIS AGREEMENT AND THE MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT, IF ANY, HOWSOEVER ARISING (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, LIABILITY ARISING FROM LENDER’S NEGLIGENCE) SHALL BE LIMITED TO AND ENFORCEABLE ONLY AGAINST LENDER’S INTEREST IN THE COLLATERAL AND THE PROCEEDS THEREOF, AND NOT OUT OF OR AGAINST ANY OTHER ASSETS OR PROPERTIES OF LENDER.

6. Borrower’s, Property Owner’s and TRS Lessees’ Consent. Borrower, Property Owner and the TRS Lessees have joined herein to evidence their consent to the terms, covenants and conditions contained in this Agreement.

7. Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO THE CONFLICT OF LAW RULES AND PRINCIPLES OF SUCH STATE.

8. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of original counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

9. Notices. Any notice required or permitted to be given under this Agreement shall be in writing and either shall be mailed by certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, or sent by overnight air courier service, or personally delivered to a representative of the receiving party, or sent by telecopy (provided an identical notice is also sent simultaneously by mail, overnight air courier, or personal delivery as otherwise provided in this Section 9).

(ii) Leasehold Pledgee may acquire the Ground Lease or the interests in Tenant, as applicable, through foreclosure or assignment in lieu of foreclosure, and transfer or assign the Ground Lease (or such interests), in its own name or through a nominee, and the resulting Tenant and its assignees shall thereafter be bound by all applicable terms of the Ground Lease, except that Landlord consent shall be required for any transfer to a transferee that (a) does not operate (or retain a management company to operate) a hotel of comparable quality to the hotel operated by the then existing Tenant, and (b) does not have a present net worth comparable to that of the then existing Tenant (or otherwise provide a guaranty of its obligations under the lease from an entity that itself complies with this clause).”

6. Rutland, VT (Parking Lot): No provision.

 

 

§4.37(x): the Ground Leases require the lessor thereunder to give notice of any default by the lessee to a holder of a leasehold mortgage; and the Ground Leases further provide that no notice given thereunder is effective against such holder, unless a copy has been given to such holder in the manner described in such Ground Lease.”

    The Ground Lease provides as follows: “That Lessor shall not terminate this Lease or Lessee’s rights of possession for any uncured default of this Lease, except Lessee’s failure to pay rent or other money due Lessor hereunder, if, within a period of thirty (30) days after notice is given by Lessor to mortgagee of any default under the provisions of this Lease, such mortgagee or holder of indebtedness cures the default or, if such default cannot reasonably be cured within that time, commence to eliminate the cause of such default and proceeds therewith diligently and provides adequate assurance to Lessor that the default will be cured.”

 

2. Phoenix, AZ: Only provides reasonable time to cure for mortgagee.

 

    The Estoppel provides as follows: “Landlord shall not terminate the Ground Lease for a default by Tenant unless and until Landlord has given Leasehold Pledgee notice of such default and 30 days in which to cure it. If the default cannot reasonably be cured within 30 days, then Leasehold Pledgee shall have such additional time as it shall reasonably require, so long as it is proceeding with reasonable diligence. For any default that cannot be cured without possession of the Property, Landlord shall allow such additional time as Leasehold Pledgee shall reasonably require to prosecute and complete a foreclosure or equivalent proceeding, then Landlord shall waive any noncurable defaults (including covenants to operate under a specified name).”

 

3. Mobile, AL: Only provides reasonable time to cure for mortgagee, up to 90 days following the expiration of lessee’s cure period.

 

    The Estoppel provides as follows: “For any default that cannot be cured by the Tenant, Leasehold Pledgee or through a nominee of such parties (i.e., a non-monetary default by Tenant) without possession of the Property, Landlord shall allow such additional time as Leasehold Pledgee shall reasonably require to prosecute and complete a foreclosure or equivalent proceeding and obtain possession provided that (i) Leasehold Pledgee shall prosecute such proceeding with reasonable diligence and (ii) in no event shall a period of more than one hundred and twenty days be deemed reasonable for this purpose.”

 

4. San Antonio, TX: Only for the first three defaults.

5. Dallas, TX: No additional cure period for mortgagee.

 

    Ground Lease provides as follows: “Landlord shall have no right, and shall take no action, to effect a termination of the Lease as to a Leasehold Mortgagee until the Leasehold Mortgagee has had a reasonable opportunity, if reasonably necessary to cure such default, either (a) obtain possession of the Leased Premises by appointment of a receiver, institution of foreclosure proceedings or otherwise, or (b) to institute and with reasonable diligence complete foreclosure or other appropriate proceedings to acquire possession of and control over Tenant’s leasehold estate in the Lease; but any such extension of time to cure shall be upon condition that (A) the Leasehold Mortgagee proceeds diligently to take the actions stated above, and (B) the Leasehold Mortgagee shall deliver to Landlord, no later than sixty (60) days after the expiration of the aforesaid period applicable to Tenant as to the particular default, an instrument executed and acknowledged by such Leasehold Mortgagee by which such Leasehold Mortgage undertakes…” [the payment and performance of obligations under the Ground Lease].


6. Rutland, VT (Parking Lot): No provision.

 

7. Chattanooga, TN (Parking Lot): No additional cure period for mortgagee.

 

    The Estoppel provides as follows: “If the Parking Lease terminates for any reason, including a rejection by Tenant in bankruptcy, then if requested within thirty (30) days of such termination, Landlord shall reinstate the Parking Lease, on the same terms, as a lease between Landlord and Leasehold Pledgee (provided such Leasehold Pledgee cures any and all defaults, and provided that the new lease shall not be bound by any covenant to operate under a specified name).”

 

 

§4.37(xii): in the case of any default which is not curable by a holder of a leasehold mortgage, or in the event of the bankruptcy or insolvency of the lessee under one of the Ground Leases, such holder has the right, following termination of such existing Ground Lease or rejection thereof by a bankruptcy trustee or similar party, to enter into a new ground lease with the lessor on the same terms as such existing Ground Lease, and all rights of the lessee under such Ground Lease may be exercised by or on behalf of such holder.”
