ARTICLE 2.

GENERAL TERMS

Section 2.1 The Loan.

Subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth herein, Lender hereby agrees to make and Borrower hereby agrees to accept the Loan on the Closing Date.

Section 2.2 Disbursement to Borrower.

Borrower may request and receive only one borrowing hereunder in respect of the Loan and any amount borrowed and repaid hereunder in respect of the Loan may not be re-borrowed.

Section 2.3 The Note and the other Loan Documents.

The Loan shall be evidenced by the Note and this Agreement and secured by this Agreement, the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents.

Section 2.4 Use of Proceeds.

Borrower shall use the proceeds of the Loan to (i) acquire the Property and/or pay and discharge any existing loans relating to the Property, (ii) pay all past-due Taxes, Insurance Premiums and Other Charges, if any, in respect of the Property, (iii) make initial deposits of the Reserve Funds, (iv) pay costs and expenses incurred in connection with the closing of the Loan, and (v) to the extent any proceeds remain after satisfying clauses (i) through (iv) above, for such lawful purpose as Borrower shall designate.

Section 2.5 Interest Rate.

(a) Generally. Interest on the outstanding principal balance of the Loan shall accrue from the Closing Date up to but excluding the Maturity Date at the Interest Rate.

(b) Default Rate. In the event that, and for so long as, any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the outstanding principal balance of the Loan and, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, overdue interest in respect of the Loan, shall accrue interest at the Default Rate, calculated from the date of such Event of Default without regard to any grace or cure periods contained herein.

(c) Interest Calculation. Interest on the outstanding principal balance of the Loan shall accrue at the Interest Rate calculated on an Actual/360 Basis. Borrower acknowledges that interest calculated on an Actual/360 Basis exceeds interest calculated on a 30/360 Basis and, therefore: (i) a greater portion of each monthly installment of principal (if applicable) and interest will be applied to interest using the Actual/360 Basis than would be the case if interest accrued on a 30/360 Basis and (ii) the unpaid principal balance of the Loan on the Maturity Date will be greater using the Actual/360 Basis than would be the case if interest accrued on a 30/360 Basis.

(d) Usury Savings. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents are subject to the express condition that at no time shall Borrower be required to pay interest on the principal balance of the Loan at a rate which could subject Lender to either civil or criminal liability as a result of being in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate. If by the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, Borrower is at any time required or obligated to pay interest on the principal balance due hereunder at a rate in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate, the Interest Rate or the Default Rate, as the case may be, shall be deemed to be immediately reduced to the Maximum Legal Rate and all previous payments in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate shall be deemed to have been applied toward payment of the principal of the Loan and not on account of the interest due hereunder or, if the Loan has been repaid in full, shall promptly be returned to Borrower. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Lender for the use or forbearance of the sums due under the Loan, shall, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, be amortized, prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the full stated term of the Loan until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Loan does not exceed the Maximum Legal Rate from time to time in effect and applicable to the Loan for so long as the Loan is outstanding.

Section 2.6 Loan Payments.

(a) Payment Before Maturity. Borrower shall make a payment to Lender of interest only on the Closing Date for the period from the Closing Date through (but excluding) the eleventh (11th) day of either (i) the month in which the Closing Date occurs (if such Closing Date is on or after the first (1st) day of such month, but prior to the eleventh (11th) day of such month) or (ii) if the Closing Date is after the eleventh (11th) day of the then current calendar month, the calendar month following the calendar month in which the Closing Date occurs (unless the Closing Date is the eleventh (11th) day of a calendar month, in which case no such separate payment of interest shall be due). Borrower shall make a payment to Lender of principal (if applicable) and interest in the amount of the Monthly Debt Service Payment Amount on the Monthly Payment Date occurring in January, 2015 and on each Monthly Payment Date thereafter to and including the Maturity Date. Each payment shall be applied first to accrued and unpaid interest and the balance, if any, to principal. The Monthly Debt Service Payment Amount required hereunder (where such Monthly Debt Service Payment includes both principal and interest) is based upon a thirty (30) year amortization schedule.

(b) Intentionally Omitted.

(c) Payment on Maturity. Borrower shall pay to Lender on the Maturity Date the outstanding principal balance of the Loan, all accrued and unpaid interest and all other amounts due hereunder and under the Note, the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents.

(d) Late Payment Charge. If any principal, interest or any other sum due under the Loan Documents, other than the payment of principal due on the Maturity Date, is not paid by Borrower within five (5) days when due, Borrower shall pay to Lender upon demand an amount equal to the lesser of five percent (5%) of such unpaid sum or the maximum amount permitted by Applicable Law in order to defray the expense incurred by Lender in handling and processing such delinquent payment and to compensate Lender for the loss of the use of such delinquent payment. Any such amount shall be secured by the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents.

(e) Method and Place of Payment.

(i) Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, all payments and prepayments under this Agreement and the Note shall be made to Lender not later than 10:00 A.M., California time, on the date when due and shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America in immediately available funds at Lender’s office, and any funds received by Lender after such time shall, for all purposes hereof, be deemed to have been paid on the next succeeding Business Day.

(ii) Whenever any payment to be made hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be stated to be due on a day which is not a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be deemed to be the immediately succeeding Business Day.

(iii) All payments required to be made by Borrower hereunder or under the Note or the other Loan Documents shall be made irrespective of, and without deduction for, any setoff, claim or counterclaim and shall be made irrespective of any defense thereto.

Section 2.7 Prepayments.

(a) Except as otherwise provided herein, Borrower shall not have the right to prepay the Loan in whole or in part. On and after the Monthly Payment Date occurring three (3) months prior to the Maturity Date (the “Open Period Start Date”), Borrower may, subject to Section 2.7(c) hereof, at its option and upon thirty (30) days prior notice to Lender (or such shorter period of time as may be permitted by Lender in its sole discretion), prepay the Debt in whole on any date without payment of the Yield Maintenance Premium. Any prepayment received by Lender on a date other than a Monthly Payment Date shall include interest which would have accrued thereon to the next Monthly Payment Date (such amounts, the “Interest Shortfall”).

(b) Mandatory Prepayments. On each date on which Lender actually receives a distribution of Net Proceeds, and if such Net Proceeds are not made available to Borrower for Restoration, Borrower shall apply one hundred percent (100%) of such Net Proceeds to the prepayment of the outstanding principal balance of the Note together with any applicable Interest Shortfall (except that Awards in respect of any temporary taking of the Property, unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, shall be applied as if they constituted Rents). No Yield Maintenance Premium shall be due in connection with any prepayment made pursuant to this Section 2.7(b). If Net Proceeds are so applied to payment of the Debt rather than made available to Borrower for Restoration, then, provided no Event of Default exists, Borrower shall have a one-time right to prepay the Debt in full only, without payment of the Yield Maintenance Premium or any other premium or penalty, provided that: (a) the amount of Net Proceeds so applied is not less than fifty-one percent (51%) of the outstanding principal amount of the Debt, (b) Borrower gives written notice of such election to prepay the Debt in full not later than three (3) months after the date which is the earlier of (i) the date Lender notifies Borrower that the Net Proceeds shall be applied to the Debt; and (ii) the date Lender applies the Net Proceeds to the Debt; (c) the Debt is prepaid in full not later than three (3) months after Borrower gives Lender such notice; and (d) such prepayment is made on a Payment Date or if such prepayment is not made on a Monthly Payment Date, then Borrower shall pay to Lender the Interest Shortfall.

(c) Prepayments During Default. If concurrently with or after and during the continuation of an Event of Default, payment of all or any part of the principal of the Loan is tendered by Borrower, a purchaser at foreclosure or any other Person, such tender shall be deemed an attempt to circumvent the prohibition against prepayment prior to the Open Period Start Date as set forth herein and Borrower, such purchaser at foreclosure or other Person shall pay (i) the Yield Maintenance Premium and (ii) Interest Shortfall, in addition to the outstanding principal balance, all accrued and unpaid interest and other amounts payable under the Loan Documents. Borrower acknowledges that (i) a prepayment will cause damage to Lender; (ii) the Yield Maintenance Premium is intended to compensate Lender for the loss of its investment and the expense incurred and time and effort associated with making the Loan, which will not be fully repaid if the Loan is prepaid; (iii) it will be extremely difficult and impractical to ascertain the extent of Lender’s damages caused by a prepayment after an acceleration or any other prepayment not permitted by the Loan Documents; and (iv) the Yield Maintenance Premium represents Lender’s and Borrower’s reasonable estimate of Lender’s damages from the prepayment and is not a penalty.

(d) Release of Lien. Except as expressly set forth in this Article 2, no repayment, prepayment or defeasance of all or any portion of the Note shall cause, give rise to a right to require, or otherwise result in, the release of the lien of the Security Instrument.

Section 2.8 Defeasance.

(a) Provided no Event of Default shall have occurred and remain uncured, Borrower shall have the right at any time after the Defeasance Lockout Release Date and prior to the Open Period Start Date to voluntarily defease the entire Loan and obtain a release of the lien of the Security Instrument by providing Lender with the Total Defeasance Collateral (hereinafter, a “Total Defeasance Event”), subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions precedent:

(e) In connection with a Total Defeasance Event under this Section 2.8, Borrower shall transfer and assign all obligations, rights and duties under and to the Note and the Security Agreement, together with the Total Defeasance Collateral to a newly-created successor entity, which entity shall be a Single Purpose Entity and which entity shall be designated or established by Lender, at Lender’s option (the “Successor Borrower”). Lender shall also have the right to purchase on behalf of Borrower, or cause to be purchased on behalf of Borrower, the pledged Total Defeasance Collateral. Such rights to designate or establish the Successor Borrower as provided above or to purchase, or cause the purchase of, on behalf of Borrower the pledged Total Defeasance Collateral as provided above may be exercised by ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo in its sole discretion and shall be retained by ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo as the original Lender herein (and any successor or assign of ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo under a specific assignment of such retained rights separate and apart from a Secondary Market Transaction related to all or any portion of the Loan), notwithstanding any Secondary Market Transaction related to all or any portion of the Loan. Such Successor Borrower shall assume the obligations under the Note and the Security Agreement and each of Borrower, Guarantor and Master Lessee shall be relieved of its respective obligations under the Loan Documents other than those obligations which by their terms survive a repayment, defeasance or other satisfaction of the Loan and/or a transfer of the Property in connection with Lender’s exercise of its remedies under the Loan Documents. Borrower shall pay a minimum of $1,000 to any such Successor Borrower as consideration for assuming the obligations under the Note and the Security Agreement. Borrower shall pay all costs and expenses incurred by Lender, including the cost of establishing the Successor Borrower and Lender’s attorney’s fees and expenses, incurred in connection therewith.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.8, the parties hereto hereby acknowledge and agree that any Lender approval or similar discretionary rights over any matters contained in this Section 2.8 (any such matter, a “Defeasance Approval Item”) shall be construed such that Lender shall be permitted to withhold its consent or approval with respect to any Defeasance Approval Item only if the same fails to meet the Prudent Lender Standard.

Giving effect to the Loan and the Master Lease Documents, the fair saleable value of Borrower’s assets exceeds and will, immediately following the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the Master Lease Documents, exceed Borrower’s total liabilities, including, without limitation, subordinated, unliquidated, disputed or contingent obligations. The fair saleable value of Borrower’s assets is and will, immediately following the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the transactions contemplated by the Master Lease Documents, be greater than Borrower’s probable liabilities, including the probably maximum amount of its contingent liabilities or its debts as such debts become absolute and matured. Borrower’s assets do not and, immediately following the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents will not, constitute unreasonably small capital to carry out its business as conducted or as proposed to be conducted. Neither Borrower nor Master Lessee intends to, or believes that it will, incur debts and liabilities (including, without limitation, contingent liabilities and other commitments) beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature (taking into account the timing and amounts to be payable on or in respect of obligations of Borrower or Master Lessee, respectively, and the anticipated need to refinance the Loan in order to repay it on the Maturity Date).

Section 3.28 Embargoed Person.

As of the date hereof and at all times throughout the term of the Loan, including after giving effect to any transfers of interests permitted pursuant to the Loan Documents, (a) to the best of Borrower’s knowledge after due inquiry, none of the funds or other assets of Borrower, Sponsor, Master Lessee or Guarantor constitute property of, or are beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by any person, entity or country which is a sanctioned person, entity or country under U.S. law, including but not limited to, the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, 50 U.S.C. §§ 1701 et seq., The Trading with the Enemy Act, 50 U.S.C. App. 1 et seq., and any Executive Orders or regulations promulgated thereunder (including regulations administered by the Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”) of the U.S. Department of the Treasury and the Specially Designated Nationals List maintained by OFAC) with the result that the investment in Borrower, Master Lessee and/or Guarantor, as applicable (whether directly or indirectly), is prohibited by Applicable Law or the Loan made by Lender is in violation of Applicable Law (“Embargoed Person”); (b) to the best of Borrower’s knowledge after due inquiry unless expressly waived in writing by Lender, no Embargoed Person has any interest of any nature whatsoever in Borrower, Master Lessee or Guarantor, as applicable, with the result that the investment in Borrower, Master Lessee and/or Guarantor, as applicable (whether directly or indirectly), is prohibited by Applicable Law or the Loan is in violation of Applicable Law; and (c) to the best knowledge of Borrower, none of the funds of Borrower, Sponsor, Master Lessee or Guarantor, as applicable, have been derived from any unlawful activity with the result that the investment in Borrower, Master Lessee and/or Guarantor, as applicable (whether directly or indirectly), is prohibited by Applicable Law or the Loan is in violation of Applicable Law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that an Embargoed Person acquires a non-controlling interest in Guarantor, either (1) without the knowledge of Borrower, Sponsor, Master Lessee or Guarantor, through a transaction brokered by a FINRA licensed broker dealer not affiliated with Guarantor, provided such broker dealer has executed a dealer agreement or selling agreement with Guarantor or an affiliate of Guarantor (which may be the managing broker dealer for the Guarantor) in which it covenants to, among other things, comply with The USA PATRIOT Act (or any successor legislation), or (2) without the knowledge of Borrower, Sponsor, Master Lessee or Guarantor, after the initial sale or offering of such interests in Guarantor, the resulting breach of the foregoing representations shall be deemed to be unintentional and not willful or grossly negligent for purposes of Section 13.1(a) hereof. Borrower covenants and agrees that in the event Borrower receives any notice that Borrower, Sponsor, Master Lessee or Guarantor (or any of their respective beneficial owners, affiliates or participants) or any Person that has an interest in the Property is designated as an Embargoed Person, Borrower shall immediately notify Lender in writing. At Lender’s option, it shall be an Event of Default hereunder if Borrower, Guarantor, Master Lessee, or Sponsor is designated as an Embargoed Person.

Borrower hereby represents and warrants that Borrower, Sponsor, Master Lessee and Guarantor and, to the best of Borrower’s knowledge, each and every Person affiliated with Borrower, Sponsor, Master Lessee and/or Guarantor or that to Borrower’s knowledge has an economic interest in Borrower, is: (i) in full compliance with all applicable requirements of the Patriot Act and any regulations issued thereunder; (ii) operated under policies, procedures and practices, if applicable, that are in compliance with the Patriot Act and, to the extent obtainable by Borrower, Master Lessee and/or any affiliate thereof, available to Lender for Lender’s review and inspection during normal business hours and upon reasonable prior notice; (iii) not in receipt of any notice from the Secretary of State or the Attorney General of the United States or any other department, agency or office of the United States claiming a violation or possible violation of the Patriot Act; (iv) not a person who has been determined by competent authority to be subject to any of the prohibitions contained in the Patriot Act; and (v) not owned or controlled by or now acting and or will in the future act for or on behalf of any person who has been determined to be subject to the prohibitions contained in the Patriot Act. Borrower covenants and agrees that in the event Borrower receives any notice that Borrower, Sponsor, Master Lessee or Guarantor (or any of their respective beneficial owners, affiliates or participants) or any Person that has an interest in the Property is indicted, arraigned, or custodially detained on charges involving money laundering or predicate crimes to money laundering, Borrower shall immediately notify Lender. At Lender’s option, it shall be an Event of Default hereunder if Borrower, Guarantor, Master Lessee, or Sponsor is indicted, arraigned or custodially detained on charges involving money laundering or predicate crimes to money laundering.

Section 3.34 No Change in Facts or Circumstances.

All information submitted by Borrower, Guarantor, Master Lessee or Sponsor to Lender and in all financial statements, rent rolls, reports, certificates and other documents submitted in connection with the Loan or in satisfaction of the terms thereof and all statements of fact made by Borrower, Sponsor, Master Lessee and/or Guarantor in this Agreement or in the other Loan Documents, are accurate, complete and correct in all material respects, provided, however, that if such information was provided to Borrower, Guarantor, Master Lessee or Sponsor by non-affiliated third parties, Borrower represents that such information is, to the best of its knowledge after due inquiry, accurate, complete and correct in all material respects. There has been no material adverse change in any condition, fact, circumstance or event that would make any such information inaccurate, incomplete or otherwise misleading in any material respect or that would otherwise have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 3.35 Perfection of Accounts.

Borrower hereby represents and warrants to Lender that:

(a) This Agreement, together with the other Loan Documents, create a valid and continuing security interest (as defined in the Uniform Commercial Code) in the Accounts in favor of Lender, which security interest is prior to all other Liens, other than Permitted Encumbrances, and is enforceable as such against creditors of and purchasers from Borrower. Other than in connection with the Loan Documents and except for Permitted Encumbrances, Borrower has not sold or otherwise conveyed the Accounts; and

(b) The Accounts constitute “deposit accounts” or “securities accounts” within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code, as set forth in the Cash Management Agreement.

The Franchise Agreement is in full force and effect and there is no default thereunder by any party thereto (to Borrower’s knowledge after due inquiry, as to Franchisor) and no event has occurred that, with the passage of time and/or giving of notice, would constitute a default thereunder (to Borrower’s knowledge after due inquiry, as to the obligations of Franchisor).

ARTICLE 4.

BORROWER COVENANTS

From the date hereof and until payment and performance in full of all obligations of Borrower under this Agreement, the Security Instrument, the Note and the other Loan Documents, other than surviving indemnity obligations as to which no claim is then pending, or the earlier release of the lien of the Security Instrument (and all related obligations) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Security Instrument, the Note and the other Loan Documents, each of Borrower and Master Lessee hereby covenants and agrees with Lender that:

Section 4.1 Existence.

Each of Borrower and Master Lessee will continuously maintain (a) its existence and shall not dissolve or permit its dissolution, (b) its rights to do business in the applicable State and (c) to the extent necessary to the ownership and/or operation of the Property and/or or if failure to maintain any franchise or trade name could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, its franchises and trade names, if any.

Section 4.2 Applicable Law.

(a) Each of Borrower and Master Lessee shall promptly comply and shall cause the Property to comply in all material respects with all Applicable Law affecting the Borrower, Master Lessee and the Property, or the use thereof, including, without limitation, all Environmental Laws and Applicable Law relating to OFAC, Embargoed Persons and the Patriot Act. Each of Borrower and Master Lessee shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve, renew and keep in full force and effect its existence, rights, Licenses, permits, trade names, and franchises (and with respect to trade names and franchises, to the extent necessary to the ownership and/or operation of the Property, or if failure to maintain any franchise or trade name could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect). Borrower shall give prompt notice to Lender of the receipt by Borrower and/or Master Lessee of (i) any written notice related to a violation of any Applicable Law and (ii) any notice of the commencement of any proceedings or investigations which relate to compliance with Applicable Law.

(b) After prior written notice to Lender, Borrower or Master Lessee, at Borrower’s or Master Lessee’s own expense, may contest by appropriate legal proceeding, promptly initiated and conducted in good faith and with due diligence, the validity of any Applicable Law, the applicability of any Applicable Law to Borrower, Master Lessee or the Property or any alleged violation of any Applicable Law, provided that (i) no Event of Default has occurred and remains uncured; (ii) such proceeding shall be permitted under and be conducted in accordance with the provisions of any instrument to which Borrower and/or Master Lessee is subject and shall not constitute a default thereunder and such proceeding shall be permitted by and conducted in accordance with all Applicable Law; (iii) neither the Property nor any part thereof or interest therein will be in impending danger of being sold, forfeited, terminated, cancelled or lost; (iv) Borrower shall, and shall cause Master Lessee to, promptly upon final determination thereof comply with (or shall cause compliance with) any such Applicable Law determined to be valid or applicable or cure any violation of any Applicable Law; (v) such proceeding shall suspend the enforcement of the contested Applicable Law against Borrower, Master Lessee or the Property; and (vi) Borrower shall furnish, or cause Master Lessee to furnish, such security as may be required in the proceeding, or as may be requested by Lender, to insure compliance with such Applicable Law, together with all interest and penalties payable in connection therewith.

Except with Lender’s prior written consent, neither Borrower nor Master Lessee shall initiate, join in, acquiesce in, or consent to any change in any private restrictive covenant, zoning law or other public or private restriction, limiting or defining the uses which may be made of the Property or any part thereof.

(c) Borrower shall, promptly upon request of Lender deliver an estoppel certificate from the Master Lessee stating that (i) the Master Lease is in full force and effect and has not been modified, amended or assigned (or listing the modifications, amendments or assignments, if any), (ii) no Event of Default (as defined in the Master Lease) by Master Lessee exists under the Master Lease (or describing in reasonable detail any Event of Default that does exist), (iii) neither Master Lessee nor Borrower has commenced any action or given or received any notice for the purpose of terminating the Master Lease and (iv) all sums due and payable under the Master Lease have been paid in full (or describing in reasonable detail any amounts then remaining due and unpaid).

(d) In connection with the Securitization of the Loan (or any portion thereof or interest therein), at Lender’s request, Borrower shall provide an estoppel certificate to any Investor or any prospective Investor in such form, substance and detail as Lender, such Investor or prospective Investor may reasonably require.

(e) Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver to Lender, upon request, estoppel certificates from each party under each REA and each Material Agreement in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Lender.

Section 4.14 Leases and Rents.

(a) Upon request, Borrower shall furnish (or shall cause Master Lessee to furnish) Lender with executed copies of all Leases then in effect.

(b) All Major Leases and all renewals, amendments and modifications thereof (including, without limitation, any subletting or assignment thereunder not contemplated by the express terms of such Major Lease (other than any subletting or assignment which does not require Borrower’s consent under such Lease)) executed after the date hereof shall be subject to Lender’s prior approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(c) Lender shall execute and deliver a Subordination, Non-Disturbance and Attornment Agreement on Lender’s then current standard form to Tenants under future Major Leases approved by Lender promptly upon request with such commercially reasonable changes as may be requested by Tenants, from time to time, as are reasonably acceptable to Lender. Lender’s execution of a Subordination, Non-Disturbance and Attornment Agreement which is not in compliance with the foregoing sentence shall be at Lender’s sole discretion and subject to such additional conditions as Lender shall reasonably determine.

(d) Borrower shall, and shall cause Master Lessee to, (i) observe and perform the obligations imposed upon the lessor under the Leases in all material respects in a commercially reasonable manner; (ii) enforce the terms, covenants and conditions contained in the Leases upon the part of the lessee thereunder to be observed or performed in a commercially reasonable manner, provided, however, Borrower shall not (and shall cause Master Lessee to not) terminate or accept a surrender of a Major Lease without Lender’s prior approval; (iii) not collect any of the Rents more than one (1) month in advance (other than security deposits); (iv) not execute any assignment of lessor’s interest in the Leases or the Rents (except as contemplated by the Loan Documents); (v) not, without Lender’s consent, alter, modify or change any Major Lease so as to change the amount of or payment date for rent, change the expiration date, grant any option for additional space or term, materially reduce the obligations of the lessee or increase the obligations of lessor; and (vi) hold all security deposits under all Leases in accordance with Applicable Law.

(e) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Borrower shall not willfully withhold (or permit Master Lessee to willfully withhold) from Lender any information regarding renewal, extension, amendment, modification, waiver of provisions of, termination, rental reduction of, surrender of space of, or shortening of the term of, any Lease during the term of the Loan.

(f) Borrower shall notify Lender in writing, within two (2) Business Days following receipt thereof, of Borrower’s or Master Lessee’s receipt of any termination fee or payment (“Lease Event Payment”) paid by any Tenant under any Lease or by Master Lessee in consideration of any termination, modification or amendment or settlement of any Lease or the Master Lease or any release or discharge of any Tenant under any Lease, or Master Lessee under the Master Lease, from any obligation thereunder (a “Lease Event”). Borrower further covenants and agrees that (i) Borrower shall hold (or shall cause Master Lessee to hold) any such Lease Event Payment in trust for the benefit of Lender and (ii) (A) in the event such Lease Event Payment is less than $50,000 and such Lease Event does not have a Material Adverse Effect, such Lease Event Payment shall be payable to Borrower (or Master Lessee, as the case may be) or (B) in the event such Lease Event Payment equals or exceeds $50,000 or such Lease Event has a Material Adverse Effect and provided there is no Event of Default or Cash Trap Event Period, such Lease Event Payment shall be placed by Borrower (or Master Lessee, as the case may be) in reserve with Lender, to be disbursed by Lender for tenant improvement and leasing commission costs with respect to the Property and/or for payment of the Debt or otherwise in connection with the Loan and/or the Property, as so determined by Lender, in its sole discretion.

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, to the extent Lender’s prior approval is required for any leasing matters set forth in this Section 4.14, Lender shall have ten (10) Business Days from receipt of written request and all required information and documentation relating thereto in which to approve or disapprove such matter, provided that such request to Lender is marked in bold lettering with the following language: “LENDER’S RESPONSE IS REQUIRED WITHIN TEN (10) BUSINESS DAYS OF RECEIPT OF THIS NOTICE PURSUANT TO THE TERMS OF A LOAN AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE UNDERSIGNED AND LENDER” and the envelope containing the request must be marked “PRIORITY”. In the event that Lender fails to respond to the leasing matter in question within such time, Lender’s approval shall be deemed given for all purposes. Borrower shall provide (or shall cause Master Lessee to provide) Lender with such information and documentation as may be reasonably required by Lender, including, without limitation, lease comparables and other market information as reasonably required by Lender. For purposes of clarification, Lender requesting additional and/or clarified information, in addition to approving or denying any request (in whole or in part), shall be deemed a response by Lender for purposes of the foregoing.

Section 4.15 Management Agreement and Franchise Agreement.

(a) Borrower shall, and shall cause Master Lessee to, (i) diligently perform, observe and enforce in a commercially reasonable manner all of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Management Agreement and the Franchise Agreement on the part of Borrower and/or Master Lessee, as applicable, to be performed, observed and enforced to the end that all things shall be done which are necessary to keep unimpaired the rights of Borrower and/or Master Lessee under the Management Agreement and the Franchise Agreement and (ii) promptly notify Lender of the giving of any notice to Borrower and/or Master Lessee of any default by Borrower or Master Lessee, as applicable, in the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of the Management Agreement and/or the Franchise Agreement on the part of Borrower and/or Master Lessee, as applicable, to be performed and observed and deliver to Lender a true copy of each such notice. Without Lender’s prior written consent, Borrower shall not (and shall cause Master Lessee to not) (x) surrender the Management Agreement and/or the Franchise Agreement, (y) consent to the assignment by Manager and/or Franchisor of its interest under the Management Agreement or the Franchise Agreement, as applicable (to the extent that any such consent is required under the terms thereof), or (z) terminate or cancel the Management Agreement and/or the Franchise Agreement or modify, change, supplement, alter or amend the Management Agreement or the Franchise Agreement in any respect, either orally or in writing; provided, however, that Borrower and/or Master Lessee, as applicable, may modify, supplement or amend the Franchise Agreement so long as such modification, supplement, or amendment (A) does not materially increase the obligations (or materially decrease the rights) of Borrower and/or Master Lessee thereunder, (B) add any additional restrictions on Borrower, Master Lessee or the Property, (C) materially increase the rights (or materially decrease the obligations) of Franchisor thereunder, or (D) include or modify any restriction on Lender’s ability to sell the Loan (provided that customary releases of claims that might exist against the Franchisor required in connection with a waiver, consent, forbearance or other modification entered into for the benefit of Borrower or Master Lessee shall not be deemed to violate the foregoing limitations). Any such surrender of the Management Agreement and/or the Franchise Agreement or termination, cancellation, modification, change, supplement, alteration or amendment of the Management Agreement and/or the Franchise Agreement without the prior consent of Lender (to the extent such consent is required) shall be void and of no force and effect.

(b) If Borrower or Master Lessee shall default in the performance or observance of any material term, covenant or condition of the Management Agreement and/or the Franchise Agreement on the part of Borrower or Master Lessee, as applicable, to be performed or observed, then, without limiting the generality of the other provisions of this Agreement, and without waiving or releasing Borrower from any of its obligations hereunder, Lender shall have the right, but shall be under no obligation, to pay any sums and to perform any act or take any action as may be appropriate to cause all the terms, covenants and conditions of the Management Agreement and/or the Franchise Agreement on the part of Borrower or Master Lessee to be performed or observed to be promptly performed or observed on behalf of Borrower or Master Lessee to the end that the rights of Borrower and/or Master Lessee in, to and under the Management Agreement and/or the Franchise Agreement shall be kept unimpaired and free from default. Lender and any person designated by Lender shall have, and are hereby granted, the right to enter upon the Property at any time and from time to time for the purpose of taking any such action. If Manager shall deliver to Lender a copy of any notice sent to Borrower and/or Master Lessee of default under the Management Agreement and/or the Franchise Agreement, such notice shall constitute full protection to Lender for any action taken or omitted to be taken by Lender in good faith, in reliance thereon.

(c) Borrower shall notify Lender, or shall cause Master Lessee to notify Lender, if Manager sub-contracts to a third party or an affiliate any or all of its management responsibilities under the Management Agreement. Borrower shall, from time to time, use its best efforts to obtain (or to cause Master Lessee to obtain) from Manager under the Management Agreement such certificates of estoppel with respect to compliance by Borrower and Master Lessee with the terms of the Management Agreement as may be reasonably requested by Lender. Borrower shall exercise (or shall cause Master Lessee to exercise) each individual option, if any, to extend or renew the term of the Management Agreement upon demand by Lender made at any time within one (1) year of the last day upon which any such option may be exercised, and each of Borrower and Master Lessee hereby expressly authorizes and appoints Lender its attorney-in-fact to exercise any such option in the name of and upon behalf of Borrower and/or Master Lessee, as applicable, which power of attorney shall be irrevocable and shall be deemed to be coupled with an interest. Any sums expended by Lender pursuant to this paragraph or to Section 4.15(b) hereof shall bear interest at the Default Rate from the date such cost is incurred to the date of payment to Lender, shall be deemed to constitute a portion of the Debt, shall be secured by the lien of the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents and shall be immediately due and payable upon demand by Lender therefor.

(d) Without limitation of the foregoing, if the Management Agreement is terminated pursuant to the Assignment of Management Agreement or for any other reason, then Lender, at its option, may require Borrower or Master Lessee, as applicable, to engage, in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the Assignment of Management Agreement, a new manager (the “New Manager”) to manage the Property, which such New Manager shall be a Qualified Manager. New Manager shall be engaged by Borrower or Master Lessee, as the case may be, pursuant to a written management agreement that complies with the terms hereof and of the Assignment of Management Agreement and is otherwise satisfactory to Lender in all respects. New Manager, Borrower and Master Lessee shall execute an Assignment of Management Agreement in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Lender and New Manager, which shall be based on the form then used by Lender. Without limitation of the foregoing, if required by Lender, Borrower shall, as a condition precedent to Borrower’s or Master Lessee’s engagement of such New Manager, obtain a Rating Agency Confirmation with respect to such New Manager and management agreement.

(e) In the event that the Franchise Agreement expires or is terminated (without limiting any obligation of Borrower or Master Lessee to obtain Lender’s consent to any termination or modification of the Franchise Agreement in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement), Borrower shall, or shall cause Master Lessee to, promptly enter into a Replacement Franchise Agreement with a Qualified Franchisor.

(f) Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, neither Borrower nor Master Lessee shall grant any consent or approval that would cause Borrower and/or Master Lessee to incur any material cost (including, without limitation, in connection with any property improvement plan or material capital expenditure to the extent such consent or approval is needed) under the Management Agreement or the Franchise Agreement without the prior consent of Lender, which consent may be granted, conditioned or withheld in Lender’s sole discretion.

Section 4.16 Payment for Labor and Materials.

(a) Subject to Section 4.16(b), Borrower will promptly pay (or cause to be paid) when due all bills and costs for labor, materials, and specifically fabricated materials incurred in connection with the Property (any such bills and costs, a “Work Charge”) and never permit to exist in respect of the Property or any part thereof any lien or security interest, even though inferior to the liens and the security interests hereof, and in any event never permit to be created or exist in respect of the Property or any part thereof any other or additional lien or security interest other than the liens or security interests created hereby and by the Security Instrument, except for the Permitted Encumbrances.

(b) After prior written notice to Lender, Borrower or Master Lessee, at its own expense, may contest by appropriate legal proceeding, promptly initiated and conducted in good faith and with due diligence, the validity of any Work Charge, the applicability of any Work Charge to Borrower, Master Lessee or to the Property or any alleged non-payment of any Work Charge and defer paying the same, provided that (i) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; (ii) such proceeding shall be permitted under and be conducted in accordance with the provisions of any instrument to which Borrower and/or Master Lessee is subject and shall not constitute a default thereunder and such proceeding shall be conducted in accordance with all Applicable Law; (iii) neither the Property nor any part thereof or interest therein will be in imminent danger of being sold, forfeited, terminated, cancelled or lost; (iv) Borrower or Master Lessee shall promptly upon final determination thereof pay (or cause to be paid) any such contested Work Charge determined to be valid, applicable or unpaid; (v) such proceeding shall suspend the collection of such contested Work Charge from the Property or Borrower or Master Lessee, as the case may be, shall have paid the same (or shall have caused the same to be paid) under protest; and (vi) Borrower shall furnish (or cause to be furnished) such security as may be required in the proceeding, or as may be reasonably requested by Lender, to insure payment of such Work Charge, together with all interest and penalties payable in connection therewith. Lender may (x) apply any such security or part thereof, as necessary to pay for such Work Charge at any time when, in the judgment of Lender, the validity, applicability or non-payment of such Work Charge is finally established or the Property (or any part thereof or interest therein) shall be in present danger of being sold, forfeited, terminated, cancelled or lost, (y) provided that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, shall make such security available to Borrower or Master Lessee, as the case may be, to satisfy any obligation that may be payable by it in connection with the matter so contested, and (z) provided that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, shall release any balance of such security to Borrower or Master Lessee, as the case may be.

Section 4.17 Performance of Other Agreements.

Borrower shall observe and perform (and shall cause Master Lessee to observe and perform), in all material respects, each and every term to be observed or performed by Borrower and/or Master Lessee, as applicable, pursuant to the terms of any agreement or recorded instrument affecting or pertaining to the Property and any amendments, modifications or changes thereto.

Section 4.18 Debt Cancellation.

Neither Borrower nor Master Lessee shall cancel or otherwise forgive or release any material claim or debt (other than termination of Leases in accordance herewith) owed to Borrower and/or Master Lessee, as applicable, by any Person, except for adequate consideration and in the ordinary course of Borrower’s and/or Master Lessee’s business, and except that (if applicable) cancellation, forgiveness or releases in respect of Hotel Transactions may be effected in Borrower’s (or Master Lessee’s) reasonable business judgment.

Section 4.19 ERISA.

(a) Neither Borrower nor Master Lessee shall engage in any transaction which would cause any obligation, or action taken or to be taken, hereunder (or the exercise by Lender of any of its rights under the Note, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents) to be a non-exempt (under a statutory or administrative exemption) prohibited transaction under ERISA (“ERISA”) or constitute a violation of any state statute, regulation or ruling impacting a Defined Benefit Plan or a governmental plan.

(b) Borrower shall deliver (or shall cause to be delivered) to Lender such certifications or other evidence from time to time throughout the term of the Loan, as requested by Lender in its sole discretion, that (A) neither Borrower nor Master Lessee is an “employee benefit plan” as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA, which is subject to Title I of ERISA, or a “governmental plan” within the meaning of Section 3(32) of ERISA; (B) neither Borrower nor Master Lessee is subject to any state statute, regulation or ruling regulating investments of, or fiduciary obligations with respect to, governmental plans; and (C) one or more of the following circumstances is true:

(ii) Less than twenty-five percent (25%) of each outstanding class of equity interests in Borrower and/or Master Lessee, as applicable, is held by “benefit plan investors” within the meaning of 29 C.F.R. §2510.3-101(f)(2), as modified by ERISA Section 3(42), disregarding the value of any equity interests in Borrower held by (I) a person (other than a benefit plan investor) who has discretionary authority or control with respect to the assets of Borrower and/or Master Lessee, as applicable,, (II) any person who provides investment advice for a fee (direct or indirect) with respect to the assets of Borrower and/or Master Lessee, as applicable,, or (III) any affiliate of a person described in the immediately preceding clause (I) or (II);

Section 4.20 No Joint Assessment.

Borrower shall not, and shall cause Master Lessee to not, suffer, permit or initiate the joint assessment of the Property (a) with any other real property constituting a tax lot separate from the Property, or (b) which constitutes real property with any portion of the Property which may be deemed to constitute personal property, or any other procedure whereby the lien of any taxes which may be levied against such personal property shall be assessed or levied or charged to such real property portion of the Property.

Section 4.21 Alterations.

Lender’s prior approval (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required in connection with any alterations to any Improvements (a) that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, (b) the cost of which (including any related alteration, improvement or replacement) is reasonably anticipated to exceed the Alteration Threshold, or (c) that are structural in nature, except for (x) any alterations performed as a part of a Restoration in accordance with Section 7.4 hereof, (y) any alterations or tenant improvements being made expressly pursuant to existing Leases that have been reviewed and approved by Lender and (z) any Immediate Repairs.

(c) Borrower shall use best efforts to cause the Master Lease to remain in effect so long as any portion of the Indebtedness is outstanding.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Documents or in the Master Lease, during the continuance of an Event of Default (but only after Lender shall have exercised its rights and remedies under the Mortgage), Lender may, at its sole option and regardless of whether Master Lessee is in default or compliance with the terms of the Master Lease, terminate the Master Lease without payment of any termination fee, penalty or other amount (the parties hereto agreeing that any such fee, penalty or other amount that may be payable by Borrower shall be fully subordinate to the Loan, shall not be payable by Borrower while the Loan remains outstanding, and shall not constitute a claim against Borrower in the event its cash flow is insufficient to pay its obligations).

(ix) umbrella liability insurance in an amount not less than $15,000,000 per occurrence on terms consistent with the commercial general liability insurance policy required under subsection (ii) above;

(x) insurance against employee dishonesty in amounts acceptable to Lender (if applicable to the Property and Borrower);

(xii) intentionally omitted;

(xiii) intentionally omitted; and

(xiv) such other insurance and in such amounts as Lender from time to time may reasonably request against such other insurable hazards which at the time are commonly insured against for property similar to the Property located in or around the region in which the Property is located.

(b) All insurance provided for in Subsection 7.1(a) hereof shall be obtained under valid and enforceable policies (the “Policies” or in the singular, the “Policy”), in such forms and, from time to time after the date hereof, in such amounts as may be satisfactory to Lender, issued by financially sound and responsible insurance companies authorized to do business in the state in which the Property is located and approved by Lender. The insurance companies must have a financial strength rating of “A” or better and a financial size category of “VIII” or better by A.M. Best Company, Inc., or a rating of (i) “A-” or better by S&P, and (ii) if ▇▇▇▇▇’▇ rates the insurance company and is designated by Lender in connection with the Securitization, “A3” or better by ▇▇▇▇▇’▇ (each such insurer shall be referred to below as a “Qualified Insurer”). Not less than five (5) days prior to the expiration dates of the Policies theretofore furnished to Lender pursuant to Subsection 7.1(a), Borrower shall deliver carrier-issued binders and certificates of the renewal Policies, and thereafter, complete copies of the Policies (or, in the alternative, the applicable ▇▇▇▇▇ Certificates together with the applicable “declaration pages” from such Policies) when issued. Upon renewal of the Policies, Borrower shall deliver evidence satisfactory to Lender of payment of the premiums due thereunder (the “Insurance Premiums”).

(c) Except to the extent required pursuant to Section 7.1(a) hereof, Borrower shall not obtain (or permit to be obtained) (i) any umbrella or blanket liability or casualty Policy unless, in each case, such Policy is approved in advance in writing by Lender and Lender’s interest is included therein as provided in this Agreement and such Policy is issued by a Qualified Insurer, or (ii) separate insurance concurrent in form or contributing in the event of loss with that required in Subsection 7.1(a) to be furnished by, or which may be reasonably required to be furnished by, Borrower. In the event Borrower obtains (or causes to be obtained) separate insurance or an umbrella or a blanket Policy, Borrower shall notify Lender of the same and shall cause complete copies of each Policy (or, in the alternative, the applicable ▇▇▇▇▇ Certificates together with the applicable “declaration pages” from such Policies) to be delivered as required in Subsection 7.1(a). Any umbrella or blanket Policy remains subject to review and approval by Lender based on the schedule of locations and values. Lender approves the blanket Policies and umbrella Policies for which Borrower has provided evidence to Lender in connection with Lender’s underwriting of the Loan. Notwithstanding Lender’s approval of any umbrella or blanket liability or casualty Policy hereunder, Lender reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to require Borrower to obtain a separate Policy in compliance with this Section 7.1.

(d) All Policies of insurance provided for or contemplated by Subsection 7.1(a) shall name Borrower as the named insured and, in the case of liability policies, except for the Policies referenced in Subsection 7.1(a)(v) and (xi), shall name Lender as additional insured, as their respective interests may appear, and in the case of property coverages, including but not limited to the all-risk/special form coverage, rent loss, business interruption, terrorism, boiler and machinery, earthquake and flood insurance, shall name Lender as mortgagee/lender’s loss payable by a standard noncontributing mortgagee clause in favor of Lender providing that the loss thereunder shall be payable to Lender.

(e) All property Policies of insurance provided for in Subsection 7.1(a) shall provide that:

(i) no (A) act, failure to act, violation of warranties, declarations or conditions, or negligence by Borrower, Master Lessee or anyone acting for Borrower, Master Lessee or by any Tenant under any Lease or other occupant, (B) occupancy or use of the Property for purposes more hazardous than those permitted, (C) foreclosure or similar action by Lender, or (D) failure to comply with the provisions of any Policy which might otherwise result in a forfeiture of the insurance or any part thereof, shall in any way affect the validity or enforceability of the insurance insofar as Lender is concerned;

(ii) the Policy shall not be cancelled without at least 30 days’ written notice to Lender;

(iii) each Policy shall provide that (A) the issuers thereof shall give written notice to Lender if the Policy has not been renewed ten (10) days prior to its expiration and (B) Lender is permitted to make payments to effect the continuation of such Policy upon notice of cancellation due to non-payment of Insurance Premiums; and

(iv) Lender shall not be liable for any Insurance Premiums thereon or subject to any assessments thereunder.

Additionally, Borrower further covenants and agrees to promptly send to Lender any notices of non-renewal or cancellation it receives from the insurer with respect to the Policies required pursuant to this Section 7.1.

(f) Borrower shall furnish to Lender, on or before thirty (30) days after the close of each of Borrower’s fiscal years, that certain statement regarding insurance required pursuant to Section 4.12(a)(vii) hereof.

(g) If at any time Lender is not in receipt of written evidence that all insurance required hereunder is in full force and effect, Lender shall have the right, without notice to Borrower to take such action as Lender deems necessary to protect its interest in the Property, including, without limitation, the obtaining of such insurance coverage as Lender in its sole discretion deems appropriate, and all expenses incurred by Lender in connection with such action or in obtaining such insurance and keeping it in effect shall be paid by Borrower to Lender upon demand and until paid shall be secured by the Security Instrument and shall bear interest at the Default Rate.

(h) In the event of a foreclosure of the Security Instrument or other transfer of title to the Property in extinguishment in whole or in part of the Debt, all right, title and interest of Borrower in and to the Policies then in force concerning the Property and all proceeds payable thereunder shall thereupon vest exclusively in Lender or the purchaser at such foreclosure or other transferee in the event of such other transfer of title.

(i) As an alternative to the Policies required to be maintained pursuant to the preceding provisions of this Section 7.1, Borrower will not be in default under this Section 7.1 if Borrower maintains (or causes to be maintained) Policies which (i) have coverages, deductibles and/or other related provisions other than those specified above and/or (ii) are provided by insurance companies not meeting the credit ratings requirements set forth above (any such Policy, a “Non-Conforming Policy”), provided, that, prior to obtaining such Non-Conforming Policies (or permitting such Non-Conforming Policies to be obtained), (1) Borrower shall have received Lender’s prior written consent thereto and (2) if required by Lender, confirmed that Lender has received a Rating Agency confirmation with respect to any such Non-Conforming Policy.

(j) The property, loss of rents/business interruption, general liability and umbrella liability insurance policies required in this Section 7.1 shall not exclude Terrorism Coverage (defined below) (such insurance policies, the “Applicable Policies”). Such Terrorism Coverage shall comply with each of the applicable requirements for Policies set forth above (including, without limitation, those relating to deductibles); provided that, Lender, at Lender’s option, may reasonably require Borrower to obtain or cause to be obtained the Terrorism Coverage with higher deductibles than set forth above. As used above, “Terrorism Coverage” shall mean insurance for acts of terror or similar acts of sabotage; provided, that, for so long as the Terrorism Risk Insurance Act of 2002, as extended and modified by the Terrorism Risk Insurance Program Authorization Act of 2007 (as the same may be further modified, amended, or extended, “TRIPRA”) (i) remains in full force and effect and (ii) continues to cover both foreign and domestic acts of terror, the provisions of TRIPRA shall determine what is deemed to be included within this definition of “Terrorism Coverage.” Notwithstanding the foregoing, whether or not TRIPRA or subsequent statute, extension, or reauthorization is in effect, Borrower shall be required to carry terrorism insurance throughout the term of the Loan as required by the preceding sentence; provided, however, if TRIPRA (or such subsequent statute, extension or reauthorization) is not in effect Borrower shall not be required to pay annual premiums in excess of the TC Cap (defined below) in order to obtain the Terrorism Coverage (but Borrower shall be obligated to purchase the maximum amount of Terrorism Coverage available with funds equal to the TC Cap). As used above, “TC Cap” shall mean an amount equal to two (2) times the premium for a separate “Special Form” or “All Risks” policy or equivalent policy insuring only the Property on a stand-alone basis (including, without limitation, the insurance required pursuant to Sections 7.1(a)(i) and (iii) hereof) at the time that any Terrorism Coverage is excluded from any Applicable Policy.

Section 7.2 Casualty.

If the Property shall be damaged or destroyed, in whole or in part, by fire or other casualty (a “Casualty”), Borrower shall give prompt notice of such damage to Lender and shall promptly commence and diligently prosecute the completion of the repair and restoration of the Property as nearly as possible to the condition the Property was in immediately prior to such Casualty, with such alterations as may be reasonably approved by Lender (a “Restoration”) and otherwise in accordance with Section 7.4. Borrower shall pay all costs of such Restoration whether or not such costs are covered by insurance. Lender may, but shall not be obligated to make proof of loss if not made promptly by Borrower. Borrower shall have the right to settle all claims under the Policies in which the Net Proceeds or the costs of completing the Restoration are less than the Restoration Threshold, provided that (a) no Event of Default exists, (b) Borrower promptly and with commercially reasonable diligence negotiates a settlement of any such claims and (c) the insurer with respect to the Policy under which such claim is brought has not raised any act of the insured as a defense to the payment of such claim. Lender may participate in any settlement discussions with any insurance companies (and shall approve the final settlement, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) with respect to any Casualty in which the Net Proceeds or the costs of completing the Restoration are equal to or greater than the Restoration Threshold and Borrower shall deliver to Lender all instruments required by Lender to permit such participation. If an Event of Default exists, Lender shall, at its election, have the exclusive right to settle or adjust any claims made under the Policies in the event of a Casualty.

Section 7.3 Condemnation.

Borrower shall promptly give Lender notice of the actual or threatened commencement of any proceeding for the Condemnation of the Property of which Borrower has knowledge and shall deliver to Lender copies of any and all papers served in connection with such proceedings. Lender may participate in any such proceedings, and Borrower shall from time to time deliver to Lender all instruments requested by it to permit such participation. Borrower shall, at its expense, diligently prosecute any such proceedings, and shall consult with Lender, its attorneys and experts, and cooperate with them in the carrying on or defense of any such proceedings. Notwithstanding any taking by any public or quasi-public authority through Condemnation or otherwise (including but not limited to any transfer made in lieu of or in anticipation of the exercise of such taking), Borrower shall continue to pay the Debt at the time and in the manner provided for its payment in the Note and in this Agreement and the Debt shall not be reduced until any Award shall have been actually received and applied by Lender, after the deduction of expenses of collection, to the reduction or discharge of the Debt. Lender shall not be limited to the interest paid on the Award by the condemning authority but shall be entitled to receive out of the Award interest at the rate or rates provided herein or in the Note. If the Property or any portion thereof is taken by a condemning authority, Borrower shall promptly commence and diligently prosecute the Restoration of the Property and otherwise comply with the provisions of Section 7.4. If the Property is sold, through foreclosure or otherwise, prior to the receipt by Lender of the Award, Lender shall have the right, whether or not a deficiency judgment on the Note shall have been sought, recovered or denied, to receive the Award, or a portion thereof sufficient to pay the Debt.

Section 7.4 Restoration.

The following provisions shall apply in connection with the Restoration of the Property:

(a) If the Net Proceeds shall be less than the Restoration Threshold and the costs of completing the Restoration shall be less than the Restoration Threshold, the Net Proceeds will be disbursed by Lender to Borrower upon receipt, provided that all of the conditions set forth in Section 7.4(b)(i) are met and Borrower delivers to Lender a written undertaking to expeditiously commence and to satisfactorily complete with due diligence the Restoration in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(b) If the Net Proceeds are equal to or greater than the Restoration Threshold or the costs of completing the Restoration are equal to or greater than the Restoration Threshold, Lender shall make the Net Proceeds available for the Restoration in accordance with the provisions of this Section 7.4.

(i) The Net Proceeds shall be made available for Restoration provided that each of the following conditions are met:

(A) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing;

(B) (1) in the event the Net Proceeds are insurance proceeds, less than thirty five percent (35%) of the rentable area of the Property has been damaged, destroyed or rendered unusable as a result of a Casualty or (2) in the event the Net Proceeds are condemnation proceeds, less than fifteen percent (15%) of the land constituting the Property is taken, such land is located along the perimeter or periphery of the Property, no portion of the Improvements is located on such land, and such taking does not materially impair the existing access to the Property;

(D) Borrower shall commence the Restoration as soon as reasonably practicable (but in no event later than thirty (30) days after the issuance of a building permit with respect thereto) and shall diligently pursue the same to satisfactory completion in compliance with all Applicable Laws, in all material respects, including, without limitation, all applicable Environmental Laws;

(E) Lender shall be satisfied that any operating deficits which will be incurred with respect to the Property as a result of the occurrence of any such fire or other casualty or taking will be covered out of (1) the Net Proceeds, (2) the insurance coverage referred to in Section 7.1(a)(iii) above, or (3) by other funds of Borrower or Master Lessee;

(F) Lender shall be satisfied that, upon the completion of the Restoration, the Restoration will not result in a permanent reduction of guest rooms at the Property and the Actual Debt Service Coverage Ratio, after giving effect to the Restoration, shall be equal to or greater than 1.40 to 1.0;

(G) Lender shall be satisfied that the Restoration will be completed on or before the earliest to occur of (1) six (6) months prior to the Maturity Date, (2) the expiration of the insurance coverage referred to in Section 7.1(a)(iii) above, (3) such time as may be required under applicable zoning law, ordinance, rule or regulation in order to repair and restore the Property to the condition it was in immediately prior to such fire or other casualty or taking, or (4) the earliest date required for such completion under the terms of the Franchise Agreement, the Master Lease, or any Material Agreement or REA;

(H) the Property and the use thereof after the Restoration will be in compliance with and permitted under any REA, any Material Agreement and all Applicable Law;

(I) the Restoration shall be done and completed in an expeditious and diligent fashion and in compliance with any REA, any Material Agreements and all Applicable Law;

(J) the Master Lease and the Franchise Agreement (or a Replacement Franchise Agreement) shall remain in full force and effect during and after the completion of the Restoration, notwithstanding the occurrence of such Casualty or Condemnation; and

(K) Lender shall be satisfied that making the Net Proceeds available for Restoration shall be permitted pursuant to REMIC Requirements.

(ii) The Net Proceeds (and with respect to insurance proceeds, as paid out by the relevant insurer), shall be held by Lender and, until disbursed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 7.4(b), shall constitute additional security for the Debt and other obligations under this Agreement, the Security Instrument, the Note and the other Loan Documents. The Net Proceeds (other than the Rent Loss Proceeds) shall be disbursed by Lender to, or as directed by, Borrower or Master Lessee from time to time during the course of the Restoration, upon receipt of evidence satisfactory to Lender that (A) all materials installed and work and labor performed (except to the extent that they are to be paid for out of the requested disbursement or are subject to a Casualty Retainage) in connection with the related Restoration item have been paid for in full, and (B) there exist no notices of pendency, stop orders, mechanic’s or materialman’s liens or notices of intention to file same, or any other liens or encumbrances of any nature whatsoever on the Property which have not either been fully bonded to the satisfaction of Lender and discharged of record or in the alternative fully insured to the satisfaction of Lender by the title company issuing the Title Insurance Policy.

(iii) All plans and specifications required in connection with the Restoration shall be subject to prior review and acceptance in all respects by Lender and by an independent consulting engineer selected by Lender (the “Casualty Consultant”). All such plans and specifications and all permits, licenses and approvals required or obtained in connection with the Restoration shall be assigned to Lender as additional collateral for the Loan and Lender shall have the use of the same. The identity of the contractors, subcontractors and materialmen engaged in the Restoration in respect of any contract pursuant to which they are to receive compensation in excess of $100,000 shall be subject to prior review and acceptance by Lender and the Casualty Consultant, such acceptance not to be unreasonably withheld. All reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with making the Net Proceeds available for the Restoration including, without limitation, reasonable counsel fees and disbursements and the Casualty Consultant’s fees, shall be paid by Borrower.

(iv) In no event shall Lender be obligated to make disbursements of the Net Proceeds in excess of an amount equal to the costs actually incurred from time to time for work in place as part of the Restoration, as certified by the Casualty Consultant, minus the Restoration Retainage. The term “Restoration Retainage” as used in this Section 7.4(b) shall mean an amount equal to 10% of the costs actually incurred for work in place as part of the Restoration, as certified by the Casualty Consultant, until such time as the Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender that Net Proceeds representing 50% of the required Restoration have been disbursed. There shall be no Restoration Retainage with respect to costs actually incurred by Borrower for work in place in completing the last 50% of the required Restoration. The Restoration Retainage shall in no event, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above in this Section 7.4(b), be less than the amount actually held back by Borrower from contractors, subcontractors and materialmen engaged in the Restoration. The Restoration Retainage shall not be released until the Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender that the Restoration has been completed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 7.4(b) and that all approvals necessary for the re-occupancy and use of the Property have been obtained from all appropriate governmental and quasi-governmental authorities, and Lender receives evidence satisfactory to Lender that the costs of the Restoration have been paid in full or will be paid in full out of the Restoration Retainage, provided, however, that Lender will release the portion of the Restoration Retainage being held with respect to any contractor, subcontractor or materialman engaged in the Restoration as of the date upon which the Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender that the contractor, subcontractor or materialman has satisfactorily completed all work and has supplied all materials in accordance with the provisions of the contractor’s, subcontractor’s or materialman’s contract, and the contractor, subcontractor or materialman delivers the lien waivers (or conditional lien waivers) and evidence of payment in full, upon application of the funds so released, of all sums due to the contractor, subcontractor or materialman as may be reasonably requested by Lender or by the title company insuring the lien of the Security Instrument. If required by Lender, the release of any such portion of the Restoration Retainage shall be approved by the surety company, if any, which has issued a payment or performance bond with respect to the contractor, subcontractor or materialman.

(v) Lender shall not be obligated to make disbursements of the Net Proceeds more frequently than once every calendar month.

(vi) If at any time the Net Proceeds or the undisbursed balance thereof shall not, in the reasonable opinion of Lender in consultation with the Casualty Consultant, be sufficient to pay in full the balance of the costs which are estimated by the Casualty Consultant to be incurred in connection with the completion of the Restoration, Borrower shall deposit (or cause to be deposited) the deficiency (the “Net Proceeds Deficiency”) with Lender before any further disbursement of the Net Proceeds shall be made. The Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited with Lender shall be held by Lender and shall be disbursed for costs actually incurred in connection with the Restoration on the same conditions applicable to the disbursement of the Net Proceeds, and until so disbursed pursuant to this Section 7.4(b) shall constitute additional security for the Debt and other obligations under this Agreement, the Security Instrument, the Note and the other Loan Documents.

(vii) The excess, if any, of the Net Proceeds and the remaining balance, if any, of the Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited with Lender after the Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender that the Restoration has been completed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 7.4(b), and the receipt by Lender of evidence satisfactory to Lender that all costs incurred in connection with the Restoration have been paid in full, shall be remitted by Lender to Borrower, provided no Event of Default shall have occurred and shall be continuing under this Agreement, the Security Instrument, the Note or any of the other Loan Documents.

(c) All Net Proceeds not required (i) to be made available for the Restoration or (ii) to be returned to Borrower as excess Net Proceeds pursuant to Section 7.4(b)(vii) shall be retained and applied by Lender toward the payment of the Debt whether or not then due and payable in such order, priority and proportions as Lender in its discretion shall deem proper (provided that, other than during the existence of an Event of Default, no Yield Maintenance Premium or other premium shall be payable in connection therewith). If Lender shall receive and retain Net Proceeds, the lien of the Security Instrument shall be reduced only by the amount thereof received and retained by Lender and actually applied by Lender in reduction of the Debt.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 7.4 or anything herein to the contrary, this Section 7.4 is subject to the terms of Section 11.3 hereof to the extent applicable with respect to any Casualty or Condemnation.

In making any payment relating to Taxes, Lender may do so according to any ▇▇▇▇, statement or estimate procured from the appropriate public office (with respect to Taxes) without inquiry into the accuracy of such ▇▇▇▇, statement or estimate or into the validity of any tax, assessment, sale, forfeiture, tax lien or title or claim thereof. If the amount of the Tax Reserve Funds shall exceed the amounts due for Taxes, Lender shall, in its sole discretion, return any excess to Borrower or credit such excess against future payments to be made to the Tax Reserve Funds.

(f) Upon expiration of the PIP Reserve Period and provided no Event of Default has occurred and continuing, Lender shall release any remaining PIP Reserve Funds, if any, to or at the direction of Borrower.

Section 8.6 The Accounts Generally.

(a) All Reserve Funds shall be held in Eligible Accounts. Borrower grants to Lender a first-priority perfected security interest in all of its right, title and interest in and to each of the Reserve Funds and all sums now or hereafter deposited in the Reserve Funds as additional security for payment of the Debt (provided that, in the case of the Master Lessee’s Excess Cash Flow (as such term is defined in the Cash Management Agreement) or other funds belonging to Master Lessee pursuant to Section 5(b) of the Cash Management Agreement, Borrower collaterally assigns to Lender Borrower’s security interest therein). Until expended or applied in accordance herewith, the Reserve Funds, to the extent of Borrower’s interest therein, shall constitute additional security for the Debt, and in the case of Master Lessee’s Excess Cash Flow or other funds belonging to Master Lessee pursuant to Section 5(b) of the Cash Management Agreement, for the obligations of Master Lessee under the Master Lease. The provisions of this Section 8.6 are intended to give Lender and/or Servicer “control” of the Reserve Funds within the meaning of the UCC. Each of Borrower and Master Lessee acknowledges and agrees that the Reserve Funds are subject to the sole dominion, control and discretion of Lender, its authorized agents or designees, subject to the terms hereof, and neither Borrower nor Master Lessee shall have any right of withdrawal with respect to any Reserve Funds except with the prior written consent of Lender or as otherwise provided herein. The Reserve Funds shall not constitute trust funds and may be commingled with other monies held by Lender.

(b) Borrower shall not, and shall cause Master Lessee not to, without obtaining the prior written consent of Lender, further pledge, assign or grant any security interest in the Reserve Funds or permit any lien to attach thereto, or any levy to be made thereon, or authorize any UCC-1 Financing Statements, except those naming Lender as the secured party, to be filed with respect thereto. Lender shall have the right to file a financing statement or statements under the UCC in connection with any of the Reserve Funds with respect thereto in the form required to properly perfect Lender’s security interest therein (which, in the case of any financing statement filed in respect of Master Lessee, shall identify Borrower as “assignor secured party”). Borrower agrees that at any time and from time to time, at the expense of Borrower and/or Master Lessee, Borrower will, and shall cause Master Lessee to, promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and take all further action, that may be reasonably necessary or desirable, or that Lender may reasonably request, in order to perfect and protect any security interest granted or purported to be granted hereby or to enable Lender to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies hereunder with respect to any Reserve Funds.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, without notice from Lender or Servicer (i) neither Borrower nor Master Lessee shall have any rights in respect of the Reserve Funds and (ii) Lender shall have all rights and remedies with respect to the Accounts and the amounts on deposit therein and the Reserve Funds as described in this Agreement, the Cash Management Agreement and in the Security Instrument, in addition to all of the rights and remedies available to a secured party under the UCC, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Cash Management Agreement or in the Security Instrument, may apply the Reserve Funds as Lender determines in its sole discretion including, but not limited to, payment of the Debt (provided, however, that with respect to Master Lessee’s Excess Cash Flow or other funds belonging solely to Master Lessee pursuant to Section 5(b) of the Cash Management Agreement, Lender may only apply such funds upon the acceleration of the Loan by Lender). To the extent of any outstanding obligations of Master Lessee under the Master Lease, such application shall be deemed to have been paid in respect of such obligations.

(d) The insufficiency of Reserve Funds on deposit with Lender shall not absolve Borrower of the obligation to make any payments, as and when due pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and such obligations shall be separate and independent, and not conditioned on any event or circumstance whatsoever.

(e) Borrower shall indemnify Lender and hold Lender harmless from and against any and all actions, suits, claims, demands, liabilities, losses, damages, obligations and costs and expenses (including litigation costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) arising from or in any way connected with the Reserve Funds, the sums deposited therein or the performance of the obligations for which the Reserve Funds were established, except to the extent arising from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Lender, its agents or employees. Borrower shall assign to Lender all rights and claims Borrower may have against all Persons supplying labor, materials or other services which are to be paid from or secured by the Reserve Funds; provided, however, that Lender may not pursue any such right or claim unless an Event of Default has occurred and remains uncured.

(f) Interest accrued, if any, on the Reserve Funds, other than on the Interest Bearing Reserve Funds, shall not be required to be remitted to any Account and may instead be retained by Lender. Reserve Funds that are Interest Bearing Reserve Funds shall be held in an interest-bearing account. In no event shall Lender or any Servicer be required to select any particular interest-bearing account or the account that yields the highest rate of interest, provided that selection of the account shall be consistent with the general standards at the time being utilized by Lender or such Servicer, as applicable, in establishing similar accounts for loans of comparable type. All such interest that so becomes part of the applicable Interest Bearing Reserve Funds shall be disbursed in accordance with the disbursement procedures contained herein applicable to such Interest Bearing Reserve Funds; provided, however, that Lender may, at its election, retain any such interest for its own account during the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default.

(g) Borrower acknowledges and agrees that it solely shall be, and shall at all times remain, liable to Lender or Servicer for all fees, charges, costs and expenses in connection with the Reserve Funds, this Agreement and the enforcement hereof, including, without limitation, any monthly or annual fees or charges as may be assessed by Lender or Servicer in connection with the administration of the Accounts and the Reserve Funds and the reasonable fees and expenses of legal counsel to Lender and Servicer as needed to enforce, protect or preserve the rights and remedies of Lender and/or Servicer under this Agreement.

(a) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default described in Section 10.1(g) above with respect to Borrower, Master Lessee and SPE Component Entity only) and at any time thereafter Lender may, in addition to any other rights or remedies available to it pursuant to this Agreement, the Security Instrument, the Note and the other Loan Documents or at law or in equity, take such action, without notice or demand, that Lender deems advisable to protect and enforce its rights against Borrower and in the Property, including, without limitation, declaring the Debt to be immediately due and payable, and Lender may enforce or avail itself of any or all rights or remedies provided in this Agreement, the Security Instrument, the Note and the other Loan Documents against Borrower and the Property, including, without limitation, all rights or remedies available at law or in equity. Upon any Event of Default described in Section 10.1(g) above (with respect to Borrower, Master Lessee and SPE Component Entity only), the Debt and all other obligations of Borrower under this Agreement, the Security Instrument, the Note and the other Loan Documents shall immediately and automatically become due and payable, without notice or demand, and Borrower hereby expressly waives any such notice or demand, anything contained herein or in the Security Instrument, the Note and the other Loan Documents to the contrary notwithstanding.

(b) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, all or any one or more of the rights, powers, privileges and other remedies available to Lender against Borrower under this Agreement, the Security Instrument, the Note or the other Loan Documents executed and delivered by, or applicable to, Borrower or at law or in equity may be exercised by Lender at any time and from time to time, whether or not all or any of the Debt shall be declared due and payable, and whether or not Lender shall have commenced any foreclosure proceeding or other action for the enforcement of its rights and remedies under this Agreement, the Security Instrument, the Note or the other Loan Documents with respect to the Property. Any such actions taken by Lender shall be cumulative and concurrent and may be pursued independently, singularly, 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 Applicable Law, without impairing or otherwise affecting the other rights and remedies of Lender permitted by Applicable Law, equity or contract or as set forth herein or in the Security Instrument, the Note or the other Loan Documents. 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 to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. A waiver of one Default or Event of Default with respect to Borrower shall not be construed to be a waiver of any subsequent Default or Event of Default by Borrower or to impair any remedy, right or power consequent thereon.

(c) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender shall have the right from time to time to partially foreclose the Security Instrument in any manner and for any amounts secured by the Security Instrument then due and payable as determined by Lender in its sole discretion including, without limitation, the following circumstances: (i) in the event Borrower defaults beyond any applicable grace period in the payment of one or more scheduled payments of principal and interest, Lender may foreclose the Security Instrument to recover such delinquent payments, or (ii) in the event Lender elects to accelerate less than the entire outstanding principal balance of the Loan, Lender may foreclose the Security Instrument to recover so much of the principal balance of the Loan as Lender may accelerate and such other sums secured by the Security Instrument as Lender may elect. Notwithstanding one or more partial foreclosures, the Property shall remain subject to the Security Instrument to secure payment of sums secured by the Security Instrument and not previously recovered.

(d) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender shall have the right from time to time to sever the Note and the other Loan Documents into one or more separate notes, security instruments and other security documents (the “Severed Loan Documents”) in such denominations as Lender shall determine in its sole discretion for purposes of evidencing and enforcing its rights and remedies provided hereunder. Borrower shall execute and deliver to Lender from time to time, promptly after the request of Lender, a severance agreement and such other documents as Lender shall request in order to effect the severance described in the preceding sentence, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender. Borrower hereby absolutely and irrevocably appoints Lender as its true and lawful attorney, coupled with an interest, in its name and stead to make and execute all documents necessary or desirable to effect the aforesaid severance, Borrower ratifying all that its said attorney shall lawfully do by virtue thereof; provided, however, Lender shall not make or execute any such documents under such power until five (5) Business Days after notice has been given to Borrower by Lender of Lender’s intent to exercise its rights under such power. Borrower shall not be obligated to pay any costs or expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, execution, recording or filing of the Severed Loan Documents and the Severed Loan Documents shall not contain any representations, warranties or covenants not contained in the Loan Documents and any such representations and warranties contained in the Severed Loan Documents will be given by Borrower only as of the Closing Date.

(e) Subject to Section 5(b) of the Cash Management Agreement, any amounts recovered from the Property or any other collateral for the Loan after an Event of Default may be applied by Lender toward the payment of any interest and/or principal of the Loan and/or any other amounts due under the Loan Documents in such order, priority and proportions as Lender in its sole discretion shall determine.

(f) 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 or being deemed to have cured any Event of Default hereunder, make, do or perform any obligation of Borrower hereunder in such manner and to such extent as Lender may deem necessary. Lender is authorized to enter upon the Property for such purposes, or appear in, defend, or bring any action or proceeding to protect its interest in the Property for such purposes, and the cost and expense thereof (including reasonable attorneys’ fees to the extent permitted by Applicable Law), with interest as provided in this Section, shall constitute a portion of the Debt and shall be due and payable to Lender upon demand. All such costs and expenses incurred by Lender in remedying such Event of Default or such failed payment or act or in appearing in, defending, or bringing any action or proceeding shall bear interest at the Default Rate, for the period after such cost or expense was incurred through and including the date of payment to Lender. All such costs and expenses incurred by Lender together with interest thereon calculated at the Default Rate shall be deemed to constitute a portion of the Debt and be secured by the liens, claims and security interests provided to Lender under the Loan Documents and shall be immediately due and payable upon demand by Lender therefore.

The parties hereto agree that any action or proceeding to determine whether Lender has acted reasonably shall be determined by an action seeking declaratory judgment. Lender agrees that, in such event, it shall cooperate in expediting any action seeking injunctive relief or declaratory judgment.

Section 16.7 Marshalling and Other Matters.

Borrower hereby waives, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, the benefit of all appraisement, valuation, stay, extension, reinstatement and redemption laws now or hereafter in force and all rights of marshalling in the event of any sale under the Security Instrument of the Property or any part thereof or any interest therein.
