14
2.2 INTEREST; MONTHLY PAYMENTS.
2.2.1 GENERALLY. From and after the date hereof, interest on
the unpaid Principal shall accrue at the Interest Rate and be payable as
hereinafter provided. On the date hereof, Borrower shall pay interest only on
the unpaid Principal from the date hereof through and including February 10,
2006. On March 11, 2006 and each Payment Date thereafter through and including
the Payment Date immediately preceding the Amortization Commencement Date,
Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid Principal accrued at the Interest Rate
during the Interest Period immediately preceding such Payment Date (the "MONTHLY
INTEREST PAYMENT AMOUNT"). On the Amortization Commencement Date and each
Payment Date thereafter through and including January 11, 2016 (as such date may
be changed in accordance with Section 2.2.4), the Principal and interest thereon
at the Interest Rate shall be payable in equal monthly installments of
$171,471.59 (the "MONTHLY DEBT SERVICE PAYMENT AMOUNT"); which is based on the
Interest Rate and a 360-month amortization schedule. The Monthly Debt Service
Payment Amount due on any Payment Date shall first be applied to the payment of
interest accrued during the preceding Interest Period and the remainder of such
Monthly Debt Service Payment Amount shall be applied to the reduction of the
unpaid Principal. All accrued and unpaid interest shall be due and payable on
the Maturity Date. If the Loan is repaid on any date other than on a Payment
Date (whether prior to or after the Stated Maturity Date), Borrower shall also
pay interest that would have accrued on such repaid Principal to but not
including the next Payment Date.
2.2.2 DEFAULT RATE. After the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, the entire unpaid Debt shall bear interest
at the Default Rate, and shall be payable upon demand from time to time, to the
extent permitted by applicable law.
2.2.3 TAXES. Any and all payments by Borrower hereunder and
under the other Loan Documents shall be made free and clear of and without
deduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions,
charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding
taxes imposed on Lender's income, and franchise taxes imposed on Lender by the
law or regulation of any Governmental Authority (all such non-excluded taxes,
levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities being
hereinafter referred to in this Section 2.2.3 as "APPLICABLE TAXES"). If
Borrower shall be required by law to deduct any Applicable Taxes from or in
respect of any sum payable hereunder to Lender, the following shall apply: (i)
the sum payable shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all
required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable
under this Section 2.2.3), Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would
have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) Borrower shall make such
deductions and (iii) Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant
taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law.
Payments pursuant to this Section 2.2.3 shall be made within ten days after the
date Lender makes written demand therefor. If the amounts payable hereunder
relate to Applicable Taxes which are not of general application to lending
institutions making secured mortgage loans at such time, Borrower shall have the
option to prepay the Loan in full without any Yield Maintenance Premium unless
Lender, at its option, elects not to require Borrower to pay such Applicable
Taxes pursuant to this Section 2.2.3. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Loan
is transferred to a transferee which is organized under the laws of any
jurisdiction other than the United States of America or any state thereof, the
transferor shall cause such transferee,
15
concurrently with the effectiveness of such transfer, to furnish to the
transferor and Borrower either a United States Internal Revenue Service Form
4224 or United States Internal Revenue Service Form 1001 (wherein such
transferee claims entitlement to complete exemption from United States federal
withholding tax on all interest payments hereunder); provided, however, that in
the event that the transferor fails to cause the transferee to furnish either
such Form, Borrower shall deduct any Applicable Taxes to the extent required by
law and payments shall be made net of any Applicable Taxes without regard to the
provisions of clause (i) of the second sentence of this Section 2.2.3.
2.2.4 NEW PAYMENT DATE. Lender shall have the right, to be
exercised not more than once during the term of the Loan, to change the Payment
Date to a date other than the eleventh day of each month (a "NEW PAYMENT DATE"),
on 30 days' written notice to Borrower; provided, however, that any such change
in the Payment Date: (i) shall not modify the amount of regularly scheduled
monthly principal and interest payments, except that the first payment of
principal and interest payable on the New Payment Date shall be accompanied by
interest at the interest rate herein provided for the period from the Payment
Date in the month in which the New Payment Date first occurs to the New Payment
Date, (ii) shall extend the Amortization Commencement Date to the New Payment
Date occurring in the month set forth in the definition of Amortization
Commencement Date, and (iii) shall extend the Stated Maturity Date to the New
Payment Date occurring in the month set forth in the definition of Stated
Maturity Date.
2.3 LOAN REPAYMENT.
2.3.1 REPAYMENT. Borrower shall repay the entire outstanding
principal balance of the Note in full on the Maturity Date, together with
interest thereon to (but excluding) the date of repayment and any other amounts
due and owing under the Loan Documents. Borrower shall have no right to prepay
or defease all or any portion of the Principal except in accordance with Section
2.2.3, Section 2.3.2, Section 2.3.3, Section 2.3.4, Section 2.4 and Section
7.4.2 hereof. Except during the continuance of an Event of Default, all proceeds
of any repayment, including any prepayments of the Loan, shall be applied by
Lender as follows in the following order of priority: FIRST, accrued and unpaid
interest at the Interest Rate; SECOND, to Principal; and THIRD, to any other
amounts then due and owing under the Loan Documents. If prior to the Stated
Maturity Date the Debt is accelerated by reason of an Event of Default, then
Lender shall be entitled to receive, in addition to the unpaid Principal and
accrued interest and other sums due under the Loan Documents, an amount equal to
the Yield Maintenance Premium applicable to such Principal so accelerated.
During the continuance of an Event of Default, all proceeds of repayment,
including any payment or recovery on the Property (whether through foreclosure,
deed-in-lieu of foreclosure, or otherwise) shall, unless otherwise provided in
the Loan Documents, be applied in such order and in such manner as Lender shall
elect in Lender's discretion.
2.3.2 MANDATORY PREPAYMENTS. The Loan is subject to mandatory
prepayment in certain instances of Insured Casualty or Condemnation (each a
"CASUALTY/CONDEMNATION PREPAYMENT"), in the manner and to the extent set forth
in Section 7.4.2. Each Casualty/Condemnation Prepayment, after deducting
Lender's costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses)
in connection with the settlement or collection of the Proceeds or Award, shall
be applied in the same manner as repayments under Section 2.3.1, and
16
if such Casualty/Condemnation Payment is made on any date other than a Payment
Date, then such Casualty/Condemnation Payment shall include interest that would
have accrued on the Principal prepaid to but not including the next Payment
Date. Provided that no Event of Default is continuing, any such mandatory
prepayment under this Section 2.3.2 shall be without the payment of the Yield
Maintenance Premium. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein,
each Casualty/Condemnation Prepayment shall be applied in inverse order of
maturity and shall not extend or postpone the due dates of the monthly
installments due under the Note or this Agreement, or change the amounts of such
installments. In addition, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein or in any other Loan Document, provided no Event of Default is
continuing, no Yield Maintenance Premium shall be payable in connection with any
prepayment of the Debt required by Lender under Sections 5 and 6 of the
Mortgage.
2.3.3 DEFEASANCE.
(A) CONDITIONS TO DEFEASANCE. Provided no Event of Default
shall be continuing, Borrower shall have the right on any Payment Date after the
Release Date and prior to the Permitted Prepayment Date to voluntarily defease
the entire amount of the Principal and obtain a release of the Lien of the
Mortgage by providing Lender with the Defeasance Collateral (a "DEFEASANCE
EVENT"), subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions precedent:

days prior written notice specifying a Payment Date (the "DEFEASANCE

(ii) cash from interest and principal paid on the Defeasance Collateral. All
cash from interest and principal payments paid on the Defeasance Collateral
shall be paid over to Lender on each Payment Date and applied first to accrued

Remote Entity and which shall be approved by the Rating Agencies. Any such
Successor Borrower may, at Borrower's option, be an Affiliate of Borrower unless
the Rating Agencies shall require otherwise. Borrower shall transfer and assign
all obligations,
18
rights and duties under and to the Note, together with the Defeasance Collateral
to such Successor Borrower. Such Successor Borrower shall assume the obligations
under the Note and the Security Agreement and Borrower shall be relieved of its
obligations under such documents. Borrower shall pay a minimum of $1,000 to any

defease the Note and the requirements of Section 2.3.3 and this Section 2.4 have
been satisfied, the Property shall be released from the Lien of the Mortgage and
the Defeasance Collateral pledged pursuant to the Security Agreement shall be
the sole source of collateral securing the Note. In connection with the release
of the Lien, Borrower shall submit to Lender, not less than thirty (30) days
prior to the Defeasance Date (or such shorter time as is acceptable to Lender in
its sole discretion), a release of Lien (and related Loan Documents) for
execution by Lender. Such release shall be in a form appropriate in the
jurisdiction in which the Property is located and contain standard provisions
protecting the rights of the releasing lender. In addition, Borrower shall
provide all other documentation Lender reasonably requires to be delivered by
Borrower in connection with such release, together with an Officer's Certificate
certifying that such documentation (i) is in compliance with all Legal
Requirements, and (ii) will effect such release in accordance with the terms of
this Agreement. Borrower shall pay all costs, taxes and expenses associated with
the release of the Lien of the Mortgage, including Lender's reasonable
attorneys' fees.
2.4.2 RELEASE ON PAYMENT IN FULL. Lender shall, upon the
written request and at the expense of Borrower, upon payment in full of the Debt

theretofore released.
2.5 PAYMENTS AND COMPUTATIONS.
2.5.1 MAKING OF PAYMENTS. Each payment by a Borrower shall be
made in funds settled through the New York Clearing House Interbank Payments
System or other funds immediately available to Lender by 11:00 a.m., New York
City time, on the date such payment is due, to Lender by deposit to such account
as Lender may designate by written notice to Borrower. Whenever any such payment
shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment
shall be made on the first Business Day thereafter. All such payments shall
19
be made irrespective of, and without any deduction, set-off or counterclaim
whatsoever and are payable without relief from valuation and appraisement laws
and with all costs and charges incurred in the collection or enforcement
thereof, including attorneys' fees and court costs.
2.5.2 COMPUTATIONS. Interest payable under the Loan Documents
shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a
360-day year.
2.5.3 LATE PAYMENT CHARGE. If any regularly scheduled payment
of Principal, interest or other monthly payment or reserve or escrow deposit due
under any Loan Document is not paid by Borrower on the date on which it is due
and, subject to the last sentence of this Section 2.5.3, such failure continues
for five (5) days, 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 (the "LATE PAYMENT CHARGE"), 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.
Such amount shall be secured by the Loan Documents. With respect to the
foregoing 5 day grace period, the parties agree that such 5 day grace period
shall only be applicable no more than twice during the Term, and in all other
instances, the Late Payment Charge shall be payable in accordance with this
Section 2.5.3 with respect to any Principal, interest or other sum due under any
Loan Document which is not paid by Borrower on the date on which the same is due
(other than the balloon payment of Principal due on the Maturity Date or
acceleration of the Loan).
3. CASH MANAGEMENT AND RESERVES
3.1 CASH MANAGEMENT ARRANGEMENTS. Borrower shall cause all Rents to
be transmitted directly by tenants of the Property into a trust account (the
"CLEARING ACCOUNT") maintained by Borrower at a local bank selected by Borrower,
which shall at all times be an Eligible Institution (the "CLEARING BANK") as
more fully described in the Clearing Account Agreement. Without in any way
limiting the foregoing, all Rents received by Borrower or Manager shall be
deposited into the Clearing Account within two Business Days of receipt. Funds
deposited into the Clearing Account shall be swept by the Clearing Bank on a
daily basis into an Eligible Account at the Deposit Bank controlled by Lender
(the "DEPOSIT ACCOUNT") and applied and disbursed in accordance with this
Agreement. Funds in the Deposit Account shall be invested at Lender's discretion
only in Permitted Investments. Lender will also establish subaccounts of the
Deposit Account which shall at all times be Eligible Accounts (and may be ledger
or book entry accounts and not actual accounts) (such subaccounts are
collectively referred to herein as "SUBACCOUNTS"). The Deposit Account and any
Subaccount will be under the sole control and dominion of Lender, and Borrower
shall not have any right of withdrawal therefrom. Borrower shall pay for all
expenses of opening and maintaining all of the above accounts.
3.2 REQUIRED REPAIRS; 3.2.1 COMPLETION OF REQUIRED REPAIRS. Borrower
shall perform and complete each item of the repairs and environmental remedial
work at the Property described on Schedule 2 (the "REQUIRED REPAIRS"), if any,
within six (6) months of the date hereof or such shorter period of time for such
item set forth on Schedule 2, if any.
20
3.2.2 REQUIRED REPAIRS RESERVES. On the date hereof, Borrower
shall deposit with Lender $0 and Lender shall cause such amount to be
transferred to a Subaccount (the "REQUIRED REPAIRS SUBACCOUNT"). Provided no
Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing, Lender shall disburse
funds held in the Required Repairs Subaccount to Borrower (or at Borrower's
direction, disburse directly to the payee of the subject Required Repairs (or
portion thereof)), within 10 days after the delivery by Borrower to Lender of a
request therefor (but not more often than once per month), in increments of at
least $5,000, accompanied by the following items (which items shall be in form
and substance satisfactory to Lender): (i) an Officer's Certificate (A)
certifying that the Required Repairs or any portion thereof which are the
subject of the requested disbursement have been completed in a good and
workmanlike manner and in accordance with all applicable Legal Requirements, (B)
identifying each Person that supplied materials or labor in connection with such
Required Repairs or any portion thereof and (C) stating that each such Person
has been or, upon receipt of the requested disbursement, will be paid in full
with respect to the portion of the Required Repairs which is the subject of the
requested disbursement; (ii) copies of appropriate Lien waivers or other
evidence of payment satisfactory to Lender; (iii) with respect to any
disbursement that exceeds $50,000, at Lender's option, a title search for the
Property indicating that it is free from all Liens not previously approved by
Lender; (iv) a copy of each License required to be obtained with respect to the
portion of the Required Repairs which is the subject of the requested
disbursement; and (v) such other evidence as Lender shall reasonably request
that the Required Repairs which are the subject of the requested disbursement
have been completed and paid for. Provided no Default or Event of Default shall
have occurred and is continuing, upon Borrower's' completion of all Required
Repairs in accordance with this Section 3.2, Lender shall release any funds
remaining in the Required Repairs Subaccount, if any, to Borrower.
3.3 TAXES AND INSURANCE. Borrower shall pay to Lender on each
Payment Date (i) one-twelfth of the Taxes that Lender estimates will be payable
during the next 12 months in order to accumulate with Lender sufficient funds to
pay all such Taxes at least 30 days prior to their respective due dates and (ii)
one-twelfth of the Insurance Premiums that Lender estimates will be payable for
the renewal of the coverage afforded by the Policies upon the expiration thereof
in order to accumulate with Lender sufficient funds to pay all such Insurance
Premiums at least 30 days prior to the expiration of the Policies. Such amounts
will be transferred by Lender to a Subaccount (the "TAX AND INSURANCE
SUBACCOUNT"). Provided that no monetary Event of Default or material
non-monetary Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Lender will (a)
apply funds in the Tax and Insurance Subaccount to payments of Taxes and
Insurance Premiums required to be made by Borrower pursuant to Sections 5.2 and
7.1, provided that Borrower has promptly supplied Lender with notices of all
Taxes and Insurance Premiums due, or (b) reimburse Borrower for such amounts
upon presentation of evidence of payment; subject, however, to Borrower's' right
to contest Taxes in accordance with Section 5.2. In making any payment relating
to Taxes and Insurance Premiums, Lender may do so according to any ▇▇▇▇,
statement or estimate procured from the appropriate public office (with respect
to Taxes) or insurer or agent (with respect to Insurance Premiums), 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 Lender determines in its reasonable judgment that the funds in the
Tax and Insurance Subaccount will be insufficient to pay (or in excess of) the
Taxes or Insurance Premiums next coming due, Lender may increase (or decrease)
the monthly contribution required to be made by Borrower to the Tax and
Insurance Subaccount.
21
3.4 INITIAL LEASING RESERVE. On the date hereof, Borrower shall
deposit with Lender $167,495.90 (the "TENANT IMPROVEMENT Funds") and Lender
shall transfer such amount into a Subaccount (the "TENANT IMPROVEMENT RESERVE
SUBACCOUNT"). The Tenant Improvement Funds shall be used to reimburse Borrower
and/or to pay, in the allocated amounts and in accordance with the terms and
conditions set forth in this Agreement, for the reasonable costs and expenses
incurred by Borrower in completing the tenant improvements and/or paying the
tenants under the applicable Leases allowances for tenant improvements and/or
paying leasing commissions under the applicable Leases, in each case in the
amounts allocated to, and as described for each applicable Lease, on Schedule 1
(the "TI LEASES"). Provided that no Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, Lender shall disburse Tenant Improvement Funds held in the Tenant
Improvement Reserve Subaccount and applicable to each TI Lease (as set forth on
Schedule 1) to Borrower, within 15 days after the delivery by Borrower to Lender
of a request therefore (but not more often than once per month), in increments
of at least $5,000 (or the remaining balance of the amount allocated to the
applicable TI Lease, if less), provided: (i) Borrower shall have provided Lender
with either (1) as to leasing commissions relating to the applicable TI Lease
(as set forth on Schedule 1), reasonable evidence that such commissions have
been paid, or are then due and will be paid with proceeds of the requested
disbursement, or (2) as to leasehold improvement work or allowances therefor,
reasonable evidence (which may, if required by Lender, include a tenant estoppel
certificate from the tenant under the applicable TI Lease) indicating, as
applicable, (A) that the tenant improvements or allowances therefor have been
completed in accordance with the applicable TI Lease, (B) that the tenant under
the applicable TI Lease is then owed and entitled to payment upon the applicable
tenant allowance pursuant to the terms of such TI Lease, or (C) if the time
period upon which the applicable tenant may draw upon the applicable TI Lease
has elapsed, that such tenant is no longer entitled to obtain or require the
payment of the applicable tenant allowance under the terms of the applicable TI
Lease; and (ii) the request for disbursement is accompanied by (A) an Officer's
Certificate certifying that such funds will be used only to pay (or reimburse
Borrower for) the relevant expenditures set forth above (or, in the event of a
disbursement under clause (i)(C) above, that the condition set forth in such
clause (i)(C) has been satisfied with respect to the applicable TI Lease), and
that the same have not been the subject of a previous disbursement, and (B)
reasonably detailed supporting documentation as to the amount, necessity and
purpose therefor.
3.5 ALCOA LEASE TERMINATION PAYMENT.
(a) In the event that Alcoa exercises the Alcoa Cancellation
Right (as defined in Section 4.26 below) to terminate all or any portion of the
Alcoa Lease or reduce the Alcoa Space demised to it pursuant thereto pursuant to
the Alcoa Lease, the Alcoa Lease Termination Payment (as defined below) shall by
paid to Lender (and Borrower shall so direct Alcoa to pay the same to Lender),
and if Borrower receives the same Borrower shall immediately deposit the Alcoa
Lease Termination Payment with Lender. The "ALCOA LEASE TERMINATION PAYMENT" is
the sum of the termination fees and payments for unamortized tenant improvements
that are stipulated in the Alcoa Lease as being payable by Alcoa to Borrower
upon Alcoa's exercise of the Alcoa Cancellation Right under the applicable
circumstances of such exercise, which amount has been calculated by Borrower to
be, and is represented by Borrower to be no less than, either (i) $1,376,919.45
(as to any termination of the Alcoa Lease with respect to the entire Alcoa
Space), or (ii) $533,205.62 (as to any termination of the Alcoa Lease with
respect to only one
22
entire floor comprising a part of the Alcoa Space). Lender shall transfer such
amount received by Lender into a Subaccount (the "ALCOA LEASE TERMINATION
SUBACCOUNT"). Provided that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing,
Lender shall disburse funds held in the Alcoa Lease Termination Subaccount to
Borrower, within 15 days after the delivery by Borrower to Lender of a request
therefor (but not more often than once per month), in increments of at least
$5,000, provided that all of the following conditions precedent to each such
disbursement have been, in Lender's sole discretion, duly satisfied: (i) such
disbursement is for an Approved Leasing Expense incurred with respect to the
reletting of the space formerly leased to Alcoa under the Alcoa Lease (or if
such space is fully relet and all tenant improvement, leasing commissions and
other leasing costs and expenses are paid, then with respect to the lease or
reletting of other then-vacant space at the Property); (ii) Lender shall have
(if it desires) verified (by an inspection conducted at Borrower's expense)
performance of any construction work associated with such Approved Leasing
Expense; (iii) all space relating to the request is leased to a replacement
tenant or tenants reasonably acceptable to Lender; (iv) the term of such
replacement Lease or Leases are at least five years each; (v) the Rent due under
such Lease or Leases shall be at then market rents, but at least equal to the
then current Rent payable by Alcoa under the Alcoa Lease with respect to the
space subject thereto (or that would have been payable with respect to the space
subject thereto had the Alcoa Lease not been terminated or the space demised
pursuant thereto not been reduced); (vi) the request for disbursement is
accompanied by (A) an Officer's Certificate certifying (1) that such funds will
be used only to pay (or reimburse Borrower for) Approved Leasing Expenses and a
description thereof, (2) that all outstanding trade payables (other than those
not yet due and payable or those to be paid from the requested disbursement or
those constituting Permitted Indebtedness) have been paid in full, (3) that the
same has not been the subject of a previous disbursement, and (4) that all
previous disbursements have been used only to pay (or reimburse Borrower for)
the previously identified Approved Leasing Expenses, and (B) reasonably detailed
supporting documentation as to the amount, necessity and purpose therefor; (vii)
the Debt Service Coverage Ratio (as reasonably determined by Lender but, for
purposes of this Section only, determined on a pro forma basis for the following
12 month period by (A) taking Net Operating Income for the previous 12 month
period, (B) subtracting Rent received during such previous 12 month period
received with respect to (1) the space subject to the replacement Lease or
Leases and (2) any other portion of the Property that remains vacant, and (C)
adding all Rent required to be paid under the replacement Lease or Leases for
the following 12 month period) is at least 1.10:1; and (viii) Borrower shall
have provided Lender with tenant estoppel certificates from each such tenant
under each applicable Lease indicating that all construction to be performed and
all improvements to be installed under such Lease has been completed, that such
tenant has accepted the tenant improvements and occupied the space covered by
its Lease and has commenced paying Rent and the free rent or rent abatement
periods under such Lease has expired, and there are no defaults under such Lease
(nor does there exist any event or condition, which with the passage of time or
the giving of notice, or both, could result in such a default) (all requirements
under this Section 3.14(a) for disbursement of funds from the Alcoa Lease
Termination Subaccount to Borrower, collectively, the "ALCOA LEASE TERMINATION
DRAW REQUIREMENTS"). Any such disbursement of more than $10,000 to pay (rather
than reimburse) Approved Leasing Expenses may, at Lender's option, be made by
joint check payable to Borrower and the payee of such Approved Leasing Expenses.
23
(b) (1) Notwithstanding the foregoing, provided no Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower shall have the right, in lieu
of delivering the applicable Alcoa Lease Termination Payment pursuant to Section
3.5(a) above, to deliver to Lender on or before the date any such Alcoa Lease
Termination Payment would otherwise be required to be paid hereunder an
Acceptable Letter of Credit in favor of Lender, in an aggregate principal amount
equal to the applicable Alcoa Lease Termination Payment (such Acceptable Letter
of Credit, together with any Acceptable Letter of Credit renewing or replacing
the same provided in accordance herewith, the "ALCOA LEASE TERMINATION LETTER OF
CREDIT"), which Alcoa Lease Termination Letter of Credit shall provide that
Lender or its successors and assigns may draw the full amount thereof at any
time upon demand (and subject to no other drawing requirements or conditions)
and otherwise in form and content satisfactory to Lender. Subject to the
provisions of this Section, Lender shall retain custody of the Alcoa Lease
Termination Letter of Credit until such time as the Loan is repaid in full. If
Borrower has delivered the Alcoa Lease Termination Letter of Credit, then
provided (i) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (ii) the Debt
Service Coverage Ratio (calculated by Lender as set forth further above in this
Section 3.5(a)) is at least 1.10:1, and (iii) the other Alcoa Lease Termination
Draw Requirements (applicable as if the proposed release or reduction in the
amount of the Alcoa Lease Termination Letter of Credit were a proposed draw upon
funds in the Alcoa Lease Termination Subaccount) are satisfied, the amount of
the required Alcoa Lease Termination Letter of Credit shall be reduced from time
to time, upon Borrower's written request to Lender, by an amount equal to not
more than the amount that Borrower would have been entitled to have disbursed to
it from the Alcoa Lease Termination Subaccount under Section 3.5(a) above if
Borrower had deposited the cash the Alcoa Lease Termination Payment in the Alcoa
Lease Termination Subaccount instead of providing the Alcoa Lease Termination
Letter of Credit, and provided further, that: (x) such requests may be made not
more frequently than once per month; and (y) without limiting any other
requirement hereunder, the amount of any reduction shall be in increments of
$100,000 or any whole multiple thereof. If the amount of the required Alcoa
Lease Termination Letter of Credit is reduced, Lender will cooperate with
Borrower in amending or replacing the Alcoa Lease Termination Letter of Credit
to reflect such reduced amount of the required Alcoa Lease Termination Letter of
Credit. Borrower shall pay any fees or other amounts charged by any issuing bank
with respect to any such request and shall promptly pay to Lender all costs and
expenses of Lender incurred in connection with any such request, including
Lender's reasonable attorneys' fees.
(b) (2) Lender shall have the right to draw upon the Alcoa
Lease Termination Letter of Credit in the full amount thereof upon the
occurrence of any of the following: (A) any Event of Default; or (B) the Alcoa
Lease Termination Letter of Credit is scheduled to expire within 30 days and has
not been renewed, or Lender receives a notice stating that the Alcoa Lease
Termination Letter of Credit will not be renewed (as provided for in such Letter
of Credit). The proceeds of any draw under the Alcoa Lease Termination Letter of
Credit pursuant to this Section 3.5(b)(2) shall be allocated to the Debt, in
such order and in such manner as Lender shall elect in its sole and absolute
discretion, including (if the Loan has been accelerated) to make a prepayment of
Principal (together with the applicable Yield Maintenance Premium applicable
thereto). The proceeds of any draw under the Alcoa Lease Termination Letter of
Credit pursuant to this Section 3.5(b)(2) shall be deposited by Lender into the
Alcoa Lease Termination Subaccount and shall be governed by the provisions of
Section 3.5(a), as well as the other terms and conditions of this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents.
24
(c) In the event that Borrower fails to provide Lender with
either (i) the applicable Alcoa Lease Termination Payment, or (ii) the Alcoa
Lease Termination Letter of Credit, if and as applicable, on or before the date
required hereunder and otherwise in accordance with the provisions of this
Section 3.5, then in addition to Lender's other remedies hereunder and
notwithstanding any provision elsewhere in this Agreement to the contrary, such
event shall trigger a Cash Trap Period.
(d) Promptly after the Loan is repaid in full, Lender shall
surrender to Borrower (i) any Alcoa Lease Termination Letter of Credit that has
not been drawn upon in accordance herewith, and (ii) all undisbursed monies then
held in the Alcoa Lease Termination Subaccount, if any.
(e) Without limitation of any of the other provisions set
forth elsewhere in this Section 3.5, as additional security for payment of the
Debt and the performance by Borrower of all other terms, conditions and
provisions of the Loan Documents, Borrower hereby pledges and assigns to Lender,
and grants to Lender a security interest in, all of Borrower's rights, title and
interests in and to the Alcoa Termination Escrow Agreement and the Alcoa
Termination Escrow Funds, including without limitation any amounts or
disbursements made, paid or payable or to be made or paid or required to be made
or paid to Borrower (or its affiliates, Harvard Property Trust, LLC and/or
Harvard REIT Operating Partnership) under the terms of the Alcoa Termination
Escrow Agreement or which Borrower (or its affiliates, Harvard Property Trust,
LLC and/or Harvard REIT Operating Partnership) shall be entitled to receive
pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Alcoa Termination Escrow Agreement,
together with all proceeds of the foregoing. Provided no Event of Default exists
and is continuing, Alcoa Termination Escrow Funds, if any, disbursed to Borrower
pursuant to the Alcoa Termination Escrow Agreement shall be held by Borrower and
used for reletting costs with respect to the space demised under the Alcoa
Lease, or if such space is fully relet and all tenant improvement, leasing
commissions and other leasing costs and expenses are paid, then with respect to
the lease or reletting of other then-vacant space at the Property (and such
costs paid from such Alcoa Termination Escrow Funds shall not be reimburseable
from funds in the Alcoa Lease Termination Subaccount or result or qualify
Borrower to receive a reduction in the amount of the Alcoa Lease Termination
Letter of Credit), and Alcoa Termination Escrow Funds expended for such purposes
shall be deemed released from Lender's security interest. Upon the occurrence of
any Event of Default, Borrower shall direct or cause to be directed, and Lender
shall have the right to direct, the disbursement of Alcoa Termination Escrow
Funds to which the Borrower (or its affiliates, Harvard Property Trust, LLC
and/or Harvard REIT Operating Partnership) would be entitled under the Alcoa
Termination Escrow Agreement, and Borrower shall pay to Lender the balance, if
any (after any expenditures made by Borrower pursuant to the preceding
sentence), of any Alcoa Termination Escrow Funds previously disbursed to
Borrower, and such funds received by Lender shall be allocated to the Debt, in
such order and in such manner as Lender shall elect in its sole and absolute
discretion, including (if the Loan has been accelerated) to make a prepayment of
Principal (together with the applicable Yield Maintenance Premium applicable
thereto).
3.6 OPERATING EXPENSE SUBACCOUNT. On each Payment Date during the
continuance of a Cash Trap Period, a portion of Rents that have been deposited
into the Deposit Account during the immediately preceding Interest Period in an
amount equal to the monthly amount set forth in the Approved Operating Budget
for the following month (plus any other amounts requested by Borrower for such
month for payment of items constituting Approved Operating Expenses,
25
which are not included in the Approved Operating Budget), shall be transferred
into a Subaccount for the purpose of payment of Approved Operating Expenses for
the month in which such Payment Date occurs (the "OPERATING EXPENSE
SUBACCOUNT"). Provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing,
Lender shall disburse funds held in the Operating Expense Subaccount to Borrower
(or at Borrower's direction, to the Manager), within 5 Business Days after
delivery by Borrower to Lender of a request therefor (but not more often than
weekly), in increments of at least $1,000, provided (i) such disbursement is for
an Approved Operating Expense; and (ii) such disbursement is accompanied by (A)
an Officer's Certificate certifying (1) that such funds will be used to pay
Approved Operating Expenses and a description thereof, (2) that all outstanding
trade payables (other than those not yet due and payable or those to be paid
from the requested disbursement or those constituting Permitted Indebtedness)
have been paid in full, (3) that the same has not been the subject of a previous
disbursement, and (4) that all previous disbursements have been or will be used
to pay the previously identified Approved Operating Expenses, and (B) reasonably
detailed documentation satisfactory to Lender as to the amount, necessity and
purpose therefor. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, to
the extent that (i) Borrower has requested a disbursement of funds from the
Operating Expense Subaccount in accordance with the foregoing provisions and
(ii) at the time of such request, the funds that have been collected in the
Operating Expense Subaccount are insufficient to cover the same, then Lender
shall nonetheless disburse additional funds that are thereafter deposited into
the Operating Expense Subaccount to Borrower (without any requirement for
Borrower to submit an additional request therefor); provided that sufficient
funds have been collected in the Deposit Account to make the payments required
under clauses (i) - (v) of Section 3.11(a) on the next succeeding Payment Date.
3.7 CASUALTY/CONDEMNATION SUBACCOUNT. Borrower shall pay, or cause
to be paid, to Lender all Proceeds or Awards due to any Casualty or Condemnation
to be transferred to a Subaccount (the "CASUALTY/CONDEMNATION SUBACCOUNT") in
accordance with the provisions of Section 7. All amounts in the
Casualty/Condemnation Subaccount shall be disbursed in accordance with the
provisions of Section 7.
3.8 SECURITY DEPOSITS. Borrower shall keep all security deposits
under Leases in accordance with applicable Legal Requirements. After the
occurrence of an Event of Default, Borrower shall, upon Lender's request, if
permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, turn over to Lender the security
deposits (and any interest theretofore earned thereon) under Leases, to be held
by Lender in a Subaccount (the "SECURITY DEPOSIT SUBACCOUNT") subject to the
terms of the Leases. Security deposits held in the Security Deposit Subaccount
will be released by Lender upon notice from Borrower together with such evidence
as Lender may reasonably request that such security deposit is required to be
returned to a tenant pursuant to the terms of a Lease or may be applied as Rent
pursuant to the rights of Borrower under the applicable Lease. Any letter of
credit or other instrument that Borrower receives in lieu of a cash security
deposit under any Lease shall (i) be maintained in full force and effect in the
full amount unless replaced by a cash deposit as hereinabove described and (ii)
if permitted pursuant to any Legal Requirements, name Lender as payee or
mortgagee thereunder (or at Lender's option, be fully assignable to Lender).
3.9 CASH COLLATERAL SUBACCOUNT. If a Cash Trap Period shall have
commenced, then on the immediately succeeding Payment Date and on each Payment
Date thereafter during the continuance of such Cash Trap Period, all Available
Cash shall be paid to Lender, which
26
amounts shall be transferred by Lender into a Subaccount (the "CASH COLLATERAL
SUBACCOUNT") as cash collateral for the Debt. Any funds in the Cash Collateral
Account and not previously disbursed or applied shall be disbursed to Borrower
upon the termination of such Cash Trap Period. Lender shall have the right, but
not the obligation, at any time during the continuance of a monetary Event of
Default or material non-monetary Event of Default, in its sole and absolute
discretion to apply all sums then on deposit in the Cash Collateral Subaccount
to the Debt, in such order and in such manner as Lender shall elect in its sole
and absolute discretion, including (if the Loan has been accelerated) to make a
prepayment of Principal (together with the applicable Yield Maintenance Premium
applicable thereto). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above,
Lender shall have the right, but not the obligation, in its sole and absolute
discretion from time to time, to disburse funds deposited into the Cash
Collateral Subaccount to Borrower for application to Approved Leasing Costs or
capital expenditures approved by Lender, subject to such terms and conditions as
Lender may require.
3.10 GRANT OF SECURITY INTEREST; APPLICATION OF FUNDS. As security
for payment of the Debt and the performance by Borrower of all other terms,
conditions and provisions of the Loan Documents, Borrower hereby pledges and
assigns to Lender, and grants to Lender a security interest in, all Borrower's
right, title and interest in and to all Rents and in and to all payments to or
monies held in the Clearing Account, the Deposit Account, all Subaccounts
created pursuant to this Agreement (collectively, the "CASH MANAGEMENT
ACCOUNTS"). Borrower hereby grants to Lender a continuing security interest in,
and agrees to hold in trust for the benefit of Lender, all Rents in its
possession prior to the (i) payment of such Rents to Lender or (ii) deposit of
such Rents into the Deposit Account. Borrower shall not, without obtaining the
prior written consent of Lender, further pledge, assign or grant any security
interest in any Cash Management Account, or permit any Lien to attach thereto,
or any levy to be made thereon, or any UCC Financing Statements, except those
naming Lender as the secured party, to be filed with respect thereto. This
Agreement is, among other things, intended by the parties to be a security
agreement for purposes of the UCC. Upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, Lender may apply any sums in any Cash
Management Account in any order and in any manner as Lender shall elect in
Lender's discretion without seeking the appointment of a receiver and without
adversely affecting the rights of Lender to foreclose the Lien of the Mortgage
or exercise its other rights under the Loan Documents, provided that Lender will
not apply any such sums to prepayment of Principal unless it has accelerated the
Loan. Cash Management Accounts shall not constitute trust funds and may be
commingled with other monies held by Lender. All interest which accrues on the
funds in any Cash Management Account (other than the Tax and Insurance
Subaccount) shall accrue for the benefit of Borrower and shall be taxable to
Borrower and shall be added to and disbursed in the same manner and under the
same conditions as the principal sum on which said interest accrued. Upon
repayment in full of the Debt, all remaining funds in the Subaccounts, if any,
shall be promptly disbursed to Borrower.
3.11 PROPERTY CASH FLOW ALLOCATION. (a) (a) All Rents deposited into
the Deposit Account during the immediately preceding Interest Period shall be
applied on each Payment Date as follows in the following order of priority: (i)
First, to make payments into the Tax and Insurance Subaccount as required under
Section 3.3; (ii) Second, to pay the monthly portion of the fees charged by the
Deposit Bank in accordance with the Deposit Account Agreement; (iii) Third, to
Lender to pay the Monthly Interest Payment Amount or the Monthly Debt Service
27
Payment Amount, as the case may be, due on such Payment Date (plus, if
applicable, interest at the Default Rate and all other amounts, other than those
described under other clauses of this Section 3.11(a), then due to Lender under
the Loan Documents); (iv) Intentionally Omitted; (v) Intentionally Omitted; (vi)
Sixth, during the continuance of a Cash Trap Period, to make payments for
Approved Operating Expenses as required under Section 3.6; (vii) Seventh, during
the continuance of a Cash Trap Period, to make payments in an amount equal to
all remaining Available Cash on such Payment Date into the Cash Collateral
Subaccount in accordance with Section 3.9; and (viii) Lastly, except during the
continuance of a Cash Trap Period, payments to Borrower of any remaining
amounts. Notwithstanding the foregoing, except during the continuance of a Cash
Trap Period, provided that in any given Interest Period, all amounts referred to
in the foregoing clauses (i) - (v) have been paid (if and as applicable), then
at Borrower's request, the payments to Borrower under the foregoing clause
(viii) shall be made on a weekly basis.
(b) The failure of Borrower to make all of the payments
required under clauses (i) through (vii) of Section 3.11(a) in full on each
Payment Date shall constitute an Event of Default under this Agreement;
provided, however, if adequate funds are available in the Deposit Account for
such payments, the failure by the Deposit Bank to allocate such funds into the
appropriate Subaccounts shall not constitute an Event of Default.
(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
this Section 3.11, after the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender may apply
all Rents deposited into the Deposit Account and other proceeds of repayment in
such order and in such manner as Lender shall elect, provided that Lender may
not apply Rents to the prepayment of principal unless the Loan has been
accelerated.
3.12 INITIAL DEPOSITS INTO RESERVES. The initial deposits required to
be made on the date hereof into the reserve accounts established under this
Article 3 are funded from the proceeds of the Loan disbursed at closing.
3.13 GUARANTY IN LIEU OF ROLLOVER RESERVE. In lieu of requiring
monthly deposits into a leasing rollover reserve, Guarantor has, pursuant to the
Guaranty, guaranteed the payment of the unpaid balance of the Debt, subject to a
maximum liability limitation (provided no Springing Recourse Event occurs) of
$700,000.
4. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
Borrower represents and warrants to Lender as of the date hereof
that, except to the extent (if any) disclosed on Schedule 3 with reference to a
specific Section of this Article 4:
4.1 ORGANIZATION; SPECIAL PURPOSE. Borrower has been duly organized
and is validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the state of its
formation, with requisite power and authority, and all rights, licenses, permits
and authorizations, governmental or otherwise, necessary to own its properties
and to transact the business in which it is now engaged. Borrower is duly
qualified to do business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction where it
is required to
28
be so qualified in connection with its properties, business and operations.
Borrower is a Special Purpose Bankruptcy Remote Entity. Without limitation of
any of the foregoing, Borrower's original operating agreement, which became
effective on or about October 3, 2005 when Borrower became a duly organized
limited liability company in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware,
did not satisfy the requirements set forth in clauses (iii), (iv) and (v) within
the definition of Single Member Bankruptcy Remote LLC (in accordance with
Schedule 5 hereof); provided, however, that on or prior to the date of this
Agreement, Borrower amended and restated its original operating agreement, which
amended and restated operating agreement now duly satisfies all of the
requirements set forth in Schedule 5 hereof.
4.2 PROCEEDINGS; ENFORCEABILITY. Borrower has taken all necessary
action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of the Loan
Documents. The Loan Documents to which Borrower is a party have been duly
executed and delivered by Borrower and constitute legal, valid and binding
obligations of Borrower enforceable against Borrower in accordance with their
respective terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws
affecting rights of creditors generally, and general principles of equity. The
Loan Documents to which Borrower's Guarantor and/or Affiliates are a party have
been duly executed and delivered by such Guarantor and/or Affiliates party
thereto, and constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of such Guarantor
and/or Affiliates party thereto, enforceable against such Guarantor and/or
Affiliates party thereto in accordance with their respective terms, subject to
applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws affecting rights of creditors
generally, and general principles of equity. The Loan Documents are not subject
to, and Borrower has not asserted, any right of rescission, set-off,
counterclaim or defense, including the defense of usury. No exercise of any of
the terms of the Loan Documents, or any right thereunder, will render any Loan
Document unenforceable.
4.3 NO CONFLICTS. The execution, delivery and performance of the
Loan Documents by Borrower and the transactions contemplated hereby will not
conflict with or result in a breach of any of the terms or provisions of, or
constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any Lien
(other than pursuant to the Loan Documents) upon any of the property of Borrower
pursuant to the terms of, any agreement or instrument to which Borrower is a
party or by which its property is subject, nor will such action result in any
violation of the provisions of any statute or any order, rule or regulation of
any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over Borrower or the Property.
Borrower's rights under the Licenses and the Management Agreement will not be
adversely affected by the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents,
Borrower's performance thereunder, or the recordation of the Mortgage. Any
consent, approval, authorization, order, registration or qualification of or
with any Governmental Authority required for the execution, delivery and
performance by Borrower of the Loan Documents has been obtained and is in full
force and effect.
4.4 LITIGATION. There are no actions, suits or other proceedings at
law or in equity by or before any Governmental Authority now pending or
threatened against or affecting Borrower, the Manager or the Property, which, if
adversely determined, might materially adversely affect the condition (financial
or otherwise) or business of Borrower, Manager or the condition or ownership of
the Property.
29
4.5 AGREEMENTS. Borrower is not a party to any agreement or
instrument or subject to any restriction which might adversely affect Borrower
or the Property, or Borrower's business, properties, operations or condition,
financial or otherwise. Borrower is not in default in any material respect in
the performance, observance or fulfillment of any of the obligations, covenants
or conditions contained in any Permitted Encumbrance or any other agreement or
instrument to which Borrower is a party or by which Borrower or the Property is
bound.
4.6 TITLE. Borrower has good, marketable and indefeasible title in
fee to the real property and good title to the balance of the Property, free and
clear of all Liens except the Permitted Encumbrances. All transfer taxes, deed
stamps, intangible taxes or other amounts in the nature of transfer taxes
required to be paid by any Person under applicable Legal Requirements in
connection with the transfer of the Property to Borrower have been paid. The
Mortgage when properly recorded in the appropriate records, together with any
UCC financing statements required to be filed in connection therewith and the
other Loan Documents, will create (i) a valid, perfected first priority lien on
Borrower's interest in that portion of the Property, the Leases (to the extent
not subject to the Uniform Commercial Code) and the Rents constituting interest
in real estate or real property interests (including fixtures) and (ii) to the
extent that a security interest therein may be created under the Uniform
Commercial Code, a valid security interest in that portion of the Property, the
Leases (to the extent subject to the Uniform Commercial Code) and Rents and
other collateral for the Loan constituting personal property, which security
interest constitutes a perfected first priority security interest (a) to the
extent that a security interest therein may be perfected by the filing of a UCC
financing statement and (b) with respect to the Cash Management Accounts by
virtue of Lender's control of such Cash Management Accounts, all in accordance
with the terms of such Loan Documents, in each case subject only to any
applicable Permitted Encumbrances. All mortgage, recording, stamp, intangible or
other similar taxes required to be paid by any Person under applicable Legal
Requirements in connection with the execution, delivery, recordation, filing,
registration, perfection or enforcement of any of the Loan Documents have been
(or will, contemporaneously with such recordation or filing, be) paid by
Borrower. The Permitted Encumbrances do not materially adversely affect the
value, operation or use of the Property, or Borrower's ability to repay the
Loan. No Condemnation or other proceeding has been commenced or, to Borrower's
best knowledge, is contemplated with respect to all or part of the Property or
for the relocation of roadways providing access to the Property. There are no
claims for payment for work, labor or materials affecting the Property which are
or may become a Lien prior to, or of equal priority with, the Liens created by
the Loan Documents. There are no outstanding options to purchase or rights of
first refusal affecting all or any portion of the Property. The survey for the
Property delivered to Lender does not fail to reflect any material matter
affecting the Property or the title thereto. Except as shown on the survey, all
of the Improvements included in determining the appraised value of the Property
lie wholly within the boundaries and building restriction lines of the Property,
and no improvement on an adjoining property encroaches upon the Property, and no
easement or other encumbrance upon the Property encroaches upon any of the
Improvements, except those insured against by the Title Insurance Policy. Each
parcel comprising the Property is a separate tax lot and is not a portion of any
other tax lot that is not a part of the Property. To the best of Borrower's
knowledge, there are no pending or proposed special or other assessments for
public improvements or otherwise affecting the Property, or any contemplated
improvements to the Property that may result in such special or other
assessments.
30
4.7 NO BANKRUPTCY FILING. Borrower is not contemplating either the
filing of a petition by it under any state or federal bankruptcy or insolvency
law or the liquidation of all or a major portion of its property (a "BANKRUPTCY
PROCEEDING"), and Borrower has no knowledge of any Person contemplating the
filing of any such petition against Borrower. In addition, neither Borrower nor
any principal nor Affiliate of Borrower has been a party to, or the subject of a
Bankruptcy Proceeding for the past ten years.
4.8 FULL AND ACCURATE DISCLOSURE. No statement of fact made by
Borrower in any of the Loan Documents contains any untrue statement of a
material fact or omits to state any material fact necessary to make statements
contained therein not misleading. There is no material fact presently known to
Borrower that has not been disclosed to Lender which adversely affects, or, as
far as Borrower can foresee, might adversely affect, the Property or the
business, operations or condition (financial or otherwise) of Borrower. All
financial data, including the statements of cash flow and income and operating
expense, that have been delivered to Lender in respect of Borrower and, to
Borrower's knowledge, the Property (i) are true, complete and correct in all
material respects, (ii) accurately represent the financial condition of Borrower
and the Property as of the date of such reports, and (iii) to the extent
prepared by an independent certified public accounting firm, have been prepared
in accordance with GAAP consistently applied throughout the periods covered,
except as disclosed therein. Borrower does not have any contingent liabilities,
liabilities for taxes, unusual forward or long-term commitments, unrealized or
anticipated losses from any unfavorable commitments or any liabilities or
obligations not expressly permitted by this Agreement. Since the date of such
financial statements, there has been no materially adverse change in the
financial condition, operations or business of Borrower or the Property from
that set forth in said financial statements.
4.9 TAX FILINGS. To the extent required, Borrower has filed (or has
obtained effective extensions for filing) all federal, state and local tax
returns required to be filed and have paid or made adequate provision for the
payment of all federal, state and local taxes, charges and assessments payable
by Borrower. Borrower believes that its tax returns (if any) properly reflect
the income and taxes of Borrower for the periods covered thereby, subject only
to reasonable adjustments required by the Internal Revenue Service or other
applicable tax authority upon audit.
4.10 NO PLAN ASSETS. As of the date hereof and throughout the Term
(i) Borrower is not and will not be an "employee benefit plan," as defined in
Section 3(3) of ERISA, subject to Title I of ERISA, (ii) none of the assets of
Borrower constitutes or will constitute "plan assets" of one or more such plans
within the meaning of 29 C.F.R. Section 2510.3-101, (iii) Borrower is not and
will not be a "governmental plan" within the meaning of Section 3(32) of ERISA,
and (iv) transactions by or with Borrower are not and will not be subject to
state statutes regulating investment of, and fiduciary obligations with respect
to, governmental plans. As of the date hereof, neither Borrower, nor any member
of a "controlled group of corporations" (within the meaning of Section 414 of
the Code) maintains, sponsors or contributes to a "defined benefit plan" (within
the meaning of Section 3(35) of ERISA) or a "multiemployer pension plan" (within
the meaning of Section 3(37)(A) of ERISA).
4.11 COMPLIANCE. Each Borrower and, to Borrower's best knowledge, the
Property and the use thereof comply in all material respects with all applicable
Legal Requirements
31
(including with respect to parking and applicable zoning and land use laws,
regulations and ordinances). Borrower is not in default or violation of any
order, writ, injunction, decree or demand of any Governmental Authority, the
violation of which might materially adversely affect the condition (financial or
otherwise) or business of Borrower. The Property is used exclusively as an
office building property and other appurtenant and related uses. In the event
that all or any part of the Improvements are destroyed or damaged, said
Improvements can be legally reconstructed to their condition prior to such
damage or destruction, and thereafter exist for the same use without violating
any zoning or other ordinances applicable thereto and without the necessity of
obtaining any variances or special permits. No legal proceedings are pending or,
to the knowledge of Borrower, threatened with respect to the zoning of the
Property. Neither the zoning nor any other right to construct, use or operate
the Property is in any way dependent upon or related to any property other than
the Property. All certifications, permits, licenses and approvals, including
certificates of completion and occupancy permits required for the legal use,
occupancy and operation of the Property (collectively, the "LICENSES"), have
been obtained and are in full force and effect. The use being made of the
Property is in conformity with the certificate of occupancy issued for the
Property and all other restrictions, covenants and conditions affecting the
Property.
4.12 CONTRACTS. There are no service, maintenance or repair contracts
affecting the Property that are not terminable on one month's notice or less
without cause and without penalty or premium. All service, maintenance or repair
contracts affecting the Property have been entered into at arms-length in the
ordinary course of Borrower's business (or that of its predecessor in interest)
and provide for the payment of fees in amounts and upon terms comparable to
existing market rates.
4.13 FEDERAL RESERVE REGULATIONS; INVESTMENT COMPANY ACT. No part of
the proceeds of the Loan will be used for the purpose of purchasing or acquiring
any "margin stock" within the meaning of Regulation U of the Board of Governors
of the Federal Reserve System or for any other purpose that would be
inconsistent with such Regulation U or any other regulation of such Board of
Governors, or for any purpose prohibited by Legal Requirements or any Loan
Document. Borrower is not (i) an "investment company" or a company "controlled"
by an "investment company," within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended; (ii) a "holding company" or a "subsidiary company" of a
"holding company" or an "affiliate" of either a "holding company" or a
"subsidiary company" within the meaning of the Public Utility Holding Company
Act of 1935, as amended; or (iii) subject to any other federal or state law or
regulation which purports to restrict or regulate its ability to borrow money.
4.14 EASEMENTS; UTILITIES AND PUBLIC ACCESS. All easements, cross
easements, licenses, air rights and rights-of-way or other similar property
interests (collectively, "EASEMENTS"), if any, necessary for the full
utilization of the Improvements for their intended purposes have been obtained,
are described in the Title Insurance Policy and are in full force and effect
without default thereunder. The Property has rights of access to public ways and
is served by water, sewer, sanitary sewer and storm drain facilities adequate to
service it for its intended uses. All public utilities necessary or convenient
to the full use and enjoyment of the Property are located in the public
right-of-way abutting the Property, and all such utilities are connected so as
to serve the Property without passing over other property absent a valid
easement. All
32
roads necessary for the use of the Property for its current purpose have been
completed and dedicated to public use and accepted by all Governmental
Authorities.
4.15 PHYSICAL CONDITION. To Borrower's knowledge, the Property,
including all Improvements, parking facilities, systems, Equipment and
landscaping, are in good condition, order and repair in all material respects;
to Borrower's knowledge there exists no structural or other material defect or
damages to the Property, whether latent or otherwise. Borrower has not received
notice from any insurance company or bonding company of any defect or inadequacy
in the Property, or any part thereof, which would adversely affect its
insurability or cause the imposition of extraordinary premiums or charges
thereon or any termination of any policy of insurance or bond. No portion of the
Property is located in an area as identified by the Federal Emergency Management
Agency as an area having special flood hazards. The Improvements have suffered
no material casualty or damage which has not been fully repaired and the cost
thereof fully paid.
4.16 LEASES. The rent roll attached hereto as Schedule 6 (the "RENT
ROLL") is true, complete and correct and the Property is not subject to any
Leases other than the Leases described in the Rent Roll. Except as set forth on
the Rent Roll or tenant estoppel certificates delivered to Lender prior to the
date hereof: (i) each Lease is in full force and effect; (ii) the tenants under
the Leases have accepted possession of and are in occupancy of all of their
respective demised premises, have commenced the payment of rent under the
Leases, and there are no offsets, claims or defenses to the enforcement thereof;
(iii) all rents due and payable under the Leases have been paid and no portion
thereof has been paid for any period more than 30 days in advance; (iv) the rent
payable under each Lease is the amount of fixed rent set forth in the Rent Roll,
and there is no claim or basis for a claim by the tenant thereunder for an
adjustment to the rent; (v) to Borrower's best knowledge, no tenant has made any
claim against the landlord under any Lease which remains outstanding, there are
no defaults on the part of the landlord under any Lease, and no event has
occurred which, with the giving of notice or passage of time, or both, would
constitute such a default; (vi) to Borrower's best knowledge, there is no
present material default by the tenant under any Lease; (vii) all security
deposits under Leases are as set forth on the Rent Roll and are held consistent
with Section 3.8; (viii) Borrower is the sole owner of the entire lessor's
interest in each Lease; (ix) each Lease is the valid, binding and enforceable
obligation of Borrower and the applicable tenant thereunder; (x) to Borrower's
best knowledge, no Person has any possessory interest in, or right to occupy,
the Property except under the terms of the Lease; and (xi) each Lease is
subordinate to the Loan Documents, either pursuant to its terms or pursuant to a
subordination and attornment agreement. None of the Leases contains any option
to purchase or right of first refusal to purchase the Property or any part
thereof. Neither the Leases nor the Rents have been assigned or pledged except
to Lender, and no other Person has any interest therein except the tenants
thereunder.
4.17 FRAUDULENT TRANSFER. Borrower has not entered into the Loan or
any Loan Document with the actual intent to hinder, delay, or defraud any
creditor, and Borrower has received reasonably equivalent value in exchange for
its obligations under the Loan Documents. Giving effect to the transactions
contemplated by the Loan Documents, the fair saleable value of Borrower's assets
exceeds and will, immediately following the execution and delivery of the Loan
Documents, exceed Borrower's total probable liabilities, including subordinated,
unliquidated, disputed or contingent liabilities, including the maximum amount
of its contingent
33
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. Borrower does not intend
to, and does not believe that it will incur debts and liabilities (including
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).
4.18 OWNERSHIP OF BORROWER.
(a) The sole member of Borrower is the Harvard REIT
Operating Partnership. The only partners of the Harvard REIT Operating
Partnership are (i) the Behringer Harvard REIT (0.1% general partner), (ii) BHR
Partners, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (in excess of 99% limited
partner), which is 100% owned by the Behringer Harvard REIT, and (iii) certain
other individual holders of equity interests (less than 1% limited partners in
the aggregate). The foregoing membership interests in Borrower, the general
partnership interests in Harvard REIT Operating Partnership, and the limited
partnership interests of BHR Partners, LLC in Harvard REIT Operating
Partnership, are all owned free and clear of all Liens, warrants, options and
rights to purchase. Borrower has no obligation to any Person to purchase,
repurchase or issue any ownership interest in it. The organizational chart
attached hereto as Schedule 4 is complete and accurate and illustrates all
Persons who have a direct or indirect ownership interest in Borrower.
4.19 PURCHASE OPTIONS. Neither the Property nor any part thereof is
subject to any purchase options or other similar rights in favor of third
parties.
4.20 MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT. The Management Agreement is in full force
and effect. There is no default, breach or violation existing thereunder, and no
event has occurred (other than payments due but not yet delinquent) that, with
the passage of time or the giving of notice, or both, would constitute a
default, breach or violation thereunder, by either party thereto. Pursuant to
the Management Agreement, Borrower has appointed the Manager as its agent for
(i) hiring, terminating (subject to the provisions thereof), overseeing and
otherwise dealing with any sub-property manager for the Property, (ii) otherwise
overseeing the operation and management of the Property, and (iii) making
decisions and otherwise interacting and dealing with Lender with respect to the
Loan, this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the Property. Additionally,
subject to the provisions of Section 3.1 and the Clearing Account Agreement and
the Deposit Account Agreement, the Manager has control of all operating and
other bank accounts with respect to the Property.
4.21 HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCES. Except as disclosed in the environmental
assessment reports delivered to Lender in connection with the Loan, (i) the
Property is not in violation of any Legal Requirement pertaining to or imposing
liability or standards of conduct concerning environmental regulation,
contamination or clean-up, including the Comprehensive Environmental Response,
Compensation and Liability Act, the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, the
Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act of 1986, the Hazardous
Substances Transportation Act, the Solid Waste Disposal Act, the Clean Water
Act, the Clean Air Act, the Toxic Substance Control Act, the Safe Drinking Water
Act, the
34
Occupational Safety and Health Act, any state super-lien and environmental
clean-up statutes, any local law requiring related permits and licenses and all
amendments to and regulations in respect of the foregoing laws (collectively,
"ENVIRONMENTAL LAWS"); (ii) the Property is not subject to any private or
governmental Lien or judicial or administrative notice or action or inquiry,
investigation or claim relating to hazardous, toxic and/or dangerous substances,
toxic mold or fungus of a type that may pose a risk to human health or the
environment or would negatively impact the value of the Property ("TOXIC MOLD")
or any other substances or materials which are included under or regulated by
Environmental Laws (collectively, "HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCES"); (iii) to the best of
Borrower's knowledge, after due inquiry, no Hazardous Substances are or have
been (including the period prior to Borrower's acquisition of the Property),
discharged, generated, treated, disposed of or stored on, incorporated in, or
removed or transported from the Property other than in compliance with all
Environmental Laws; (iv) to the best of Borrower's knowledge, after due inquiry,
no Hazardous Substances are present in, on or under any nearby real property
which could migrate to or otherwise affect the Property; (v) to the best of
Borrower's knowledge, no Toxic Mold is on or about the Property which requires
remediation; and (vi) no underground storage tanks exist on the Property and the

will not use any trade name or has done or will not do business under any name
other than its actual name set forth herein and the trade name of the Property.
The principal place of business of Borrower is its primary address for notices
as set forth in Section 6.1, and Borrower has no other place of business.
4.23 OTHER DEBT. There is no indebtedness with respect to the
Property or any excess cash flow or any residual interest therein, whether
secured or unsecured, other than Permitted Encumbrances and Permitted
Indebtedness.
4.24 Intentionally Omitted.
4.25 Intentionally Omitted.
4.26 NO KNOWLEDGE OF ALCOA LEASE TERMINATION. Alcoa has not
heretofore exercised that certain cancellation right granted to it pursuant to
the terms and conditions set forth in Paragraph 5 of the 8th Amendment to the
Alcoa Lease (the "ALCOA CANCELLATION Right") with respect to any portion of the
Alcoa Space. Borrower further represents and warrants to Lender that: (i) the
Alcoa Lease does not grant Alcoa any cancellation or termination rights
respecting all or any portion of the Alcoa Space except to the extent expressly
set forth pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Alcoa Cancellation Right;
and (ii) Borrower has not received any notice of, and is not aware of any other
Person's receipt of any notice of, Alcoa's intention to hereafter exercise the
Alcoa Cancellation Right with respect to all or any portion of the Alcoa Space,
nor does Borrower otherwise have any knowledge that Alcoa intends to hereafter
exercise the Alcoa Cancellation Right with respect to all or any portion of the
Alcoa Space.
35
All of the representations and warranties in this Article 4 and
elsewhere in the Loan Documents (i) shall survive for so long as any portion of
the Debt remains owing to Lender and (ii) shall be deemed to have been relied
upon by Lender notwithstanding any investigation heretofore or hereafter made by
Lender or on its behalf, provided, however, that the representations and
warranties set forth in Section 4.21 shall survive in perpetuity.
5. COVENANTS
Until the end of the Term, Borrower hereby covenants and agrees with
Lender that:

necessary to preserve, renew and keep in full force and effect its existence,
rights, and franchises, (ii) continue to engage in the business presently
conducted by it, (iii) obtain and maintain all Licenses, and (iv) qualify to do
business and remain in good standing under the laws of each jurisdiction, in
each case as and to the extent required for the ownership, maintenance,
management and operation of the Property.
5.2 TAXES AND OTHER CHARGES. Borrower shall pay all Taxes and Other
Charges prior to delinquency, and deliver to Lender receipts for payment or
other evidence satisfactory to Lender that the Taxes and Other Charges have been
so paid prior to delinquency (provided, however, that Borrower need not pay such
Taxes nor furnish such receipts for payment of Taxes paid by Lender pursuant to
Section 3.3). Borrower shall not suffer and shall promptly cause to be paid and

disbursements incurred in connection with the monitoring or review of such
Remedial Work. If Borrower does not timely commence and diligently prosecute to

the imposition of any Lien for which Borrower has not furnished additional
security as provided in clause (4) below, as a result of the failure to perform
such Remedial Work and (4) Borrower shall have furnished to Lender additional

estimated by Lender or Lender's Consultant and any loss or damage that may
result from Borrower's failure to prevail in such contest, which amount shall
periodically be disbursed to Borrower during the course of such Remedial Work in
accordance with the procedures and requirements set forth in clauses (i) - (v)

or extension that is being unilaterally exercised by a tenant pursuant to the
terms of an existing Lease, with respect to which Lender shall not have any
consent rights) or modification of an existing Material Lease without the prior
written consent of Lender, which consent shall not, so long as no Event of
Default is continuing, be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Prior to seeking
Lender's consent to any Material Lease, Borrower shall deliver to Lender a copy

written request for such approval, accompanied by a final copy of the Proposed
Material Lease or proposed renewal, extension or modification of an existing
Material Lease. If requested by Borrower, Lender will grant conditional
approvals of Proposed Material Leases or proposed renewals, extensions or
modifications of existing Material Leases at any
40
stage of the leasing process, from initial "term sheet" through negotiated lease
drafts, provided that Lender shall retain the right to disapprove any such
Proposed Material Lease or proposed renewal, extension or modification of an
existing Material Lease, if subsequent to any preliminary approval material
changes are made to the terms previously approved by Lender, or additional
material terms are added that had not previously been considered and approved by
Lender in connection with such Proposed Material Lease or proposed renewal,
extension or modification of an existing Material Lease. Provided that no Event
of Default is continuing, if Borrower provides Lender with a written request for
approval (which written request shall specifically refer to this Section 5.10.2
and shall explicitly state that failure by Lender to approve or disapprove
within 10 Business Days will constitute a deemed approval) and Lender fails to
reject the request in writing delivered to Borrower within 10 Business Days
after receipt by Lender of the request, the Proposed Material Lease or proposed
renewal, extension or modification of an existing Material Lease shall be deemed
approved by Lender, and Borrower shall be entitled to enter into such Proposed
Material Lease or proposed renewal, extension or modification of an existing
Material Lease. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5.10,
unless expressly agreed to in writing by Lender, any approval or deemed approval
by Lender of a proposed Lease or proposed renewal, extension or modification of
an existing Lease pursuant to this Section 5.10 shall not be deemed to
constitute (in and of itself) an approval or deemed approval by Lender of any
Approved Leasing Expenses in connection therewith.

Lender's option, (x) attornment to Lender and (y) the unilateral right by
Lender, at the option of Lender, to subordinate the Lien of the Mortgage to the
Lease, and (d) shall not contain any option to purchase, any right of first
refusal to purchase, any right to terminate (except in the event of the
destruction or condemnation of substantially all of the Property), any
requirement for a non-disturbance or recognition agreement, or any other
provision which might adversely affect the rights of Lender under the Loan
Documents in any material respect. Borrower shall deliver to Lender copies of
all Leases which are entered into pursuant to the preceding sentence together
with Borrower's certification that it has satisfied all of the conditions of the
preceding sentence within ten days after the execution of the Lease.
Notwithstanding anything in this Section 5.10 to the contrary, at Borrower's
request and at Borrower's sole cost and expense, Lender shall enter into a
subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement on Lender's then current
form with any tenant under a Lease of at least 2,500 rentable square feet.

delayed; and (ix) shall not cancel or terminate any Lease or accept a surrender
thereof (except in the exercise of Borrower's commercially reasonable judgment
in connection with a tenant default under a Minor Lease or as expressly
permitted under the terms of such Lease in accordance with Section 5.10.3(d))
without the prior consent of Lender, which consent shall not, so long as no

the Terrorism Premium Cap. As used herein, (i) "TERRORISM PREMIUM CAP" means an
amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the aggregate Insurance Premiums
payable with respect to all the insurance coverage under Section 7.1.1(a) for
the last policy year in which coverage for terrorism was included as part of the
"all risk" property policy required by subsection (a) above, adjusted annually
by a percentage equal to the increase in the Consumer Price Index (hereinafter
defined) and (ii) "CONSUMER PRICE INDEX" means the Consumer Price Index for All
Urban Consumers published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the United States
Department of Labor, New York Metropolitan Statistical Area, All Items (1982-84
= 100), or any successor index thereto, approximately adjusted, and in the event
that the Consumer Price Index is converted to a different standard reference
base or otherwise revised, the determination of adjustments provided for herein
shall be made with the use of such conversion factor, formula or table for
converting the Consumer Price Index as may be published by the Bureau of Labor
Statistics or, if said Bureau shall not publish the same, then
55
with the use of such conversion factor, formula or table as may be published by
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇, Inc., or any other nationally recognized publisher of similar
statistical information; and if the Consumer Price Index ceases to be published,
and there is no successor thereto (i) such other index as Lender and Borrower
shall agree upon in writing or (ii) if Lender and Borrower cannot agree on a
substitute index, such other index, as reasonably selected by Lender. Borrower
shall obtain the coverage required under this subsection (j) from a carrier
which otherwise satisfies the rating criteria specified in Section 7.1.2 (a
"QUALIFIED CARRIER") or in the event that such coverage is not available from a
Qualified Carrier, Borrower shall obtain such coverage from the highest rated
insurance company providing such coverage.
7.1.2 POLICIES. All policies of insurance (the "POLICIES")
required pursuant to Section 7.1.1 shall: (i) be issued by companies approved by
Lender and licensed to do business in the State, with a claims paying ability
rating of "A" or better by S&P (and the equivalent by any other Rating Agency)
and a rating of A:VIII or better in the current Best's Insurance Reports; (ii)
name Lender and its successors and/or assigns as their interest may appear as
the mortgagee (in the case of property insurance), loss payee (in the case of
business interruption/loss of rents coverage) and an additional insured (in the
case of liability insurance); (iii) contain (in the case of property insurance)
a Non-Contributory Standard Mortgagee Clause and a Lender's Loss Payable
Endorsement, or their equivalents, naming Lender as the person to which all
payments made by such insurance company shall be paid; (iv) contain a waiver of
subrogation against Lender; (v) be assigned and the originals thereof delivered
to Lender, or in lieu of delivering originals of the Policies, Borrower may, on
an annual basis, deliver ▇▇▇▇▇ evidences of coverages or the equivalent, as
adequate proof of coverage; provided, however, if at any time, Lender requests
carrier certification of Policies, Borrower shall deliver such certification
within ten (10) days of Lender's request therefor; (vi) contain such provisions
as Lender deems reasonably necessary or desirable to protect its interest,
including (A) endorsements providing that neither Borrower, Lender nor any other
party shall be a co-insurer under the Policies, (B) that Lender shall receive at
least 30 days' prior written notice of any modification, reduction or
cancellation of any of the Policies, (C) an agreement whereby the insurer waives
any right to claim any premiums and commissions against Lender, provided that
the policy need not waive the requirement that the premium be paid in order for
a claim to be paid to the insured and (D) providing that Lender is permitted to
make payments to effect the continuation of such policy upon notice of
cancellation due to non-payment of premiums; (vii) in the event any insurance
policy (except for general public and other liability and workers compensation
insurance) shall contain breach of warranty provisions, such policy shall
provide that with respect to the interest of Lender, such insurance policy shall
not be invalidated by and shall insure Lender regardless of (A) any act, failure
to act or negligence of or violation of warranties, declarations or conditions
contained in such policy by any named insured, (B) the occupancy or use of the
premises for purposes more hazardous than permitted by the terms thereof, or (C)
any foreclosure or other action or proceeding taken by Lender pursuant to any
provision of the Loan Documents; and (viii) be satisfactory in form and
substance to Lender and approved by Lender as to amounts, form, risk coverage,
deductibles, loss payees and insureds. Borrower shall pay the premiums for such
Policies (the "INSURANCE PREMIUMS") as the same become due and payable and
furnish to Lender evidence of the renewal of each of the Policies together with
(unless such Insurance Premiums have been paid by Lender pursuant to Section
3.3) receipts for or other evidence of the payment of the Insurance Premiums
reasonably satisfactory to Lender. If Borrower does not furnish such evidence
and receipts at least 30 days
56
prior to the expiration of any expiring Policy, then Lender may, but shall not
be obligated to, procure such insurance and pay the Insurance Premiums therefor,
and Borrower shall reimburse Lender for the cost of such Insurance Premiums
promptly on demand, with interest accruing at the Default Rate. Borrower shall
deliver to Lender a certified copy of each Policy within 30 days after its
effective date. Within 30 days after request by Lender, Borrower shall obtain
such increases in the amounts of coverage required hereunder as may be
reasonably requested by Lender, taking into consideration changes in the value
of money over time, changes in liability laws, changes in prudent customs and
practices, and the like.
7.2 CASUALTY.
7.2.1 NOTICE; RESTORATION. If the Property is damaged or
destroyed, in whole or in part, by fire or other casualty (a "Casualty"),
Borrower shall give prompt notice thereof to Lender. Following the occurrence of
a Casualty, Borrower, regardless of whether insurance proceeds are available
(unless Lender has breached its obligation (if any) to make such insurance
proceeds available pursuant to Section 7.4.1), shall promptly proceed to
restore, repair, replace or rebuild the Property in accordance with Legal
Requirements to be of at least equal value and of substantially the same
character as prior to such damage or destruction.
7.2.2 SETTLEMENT OF PROCEEDS. If a Casualty covered by any of
the Policies (an "INSURED CASUALTY") occurs where the loss does not exceed
$250,000, provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower
may settle and adjust any claim without the prior consent of Lender; provided
such adjustment is carried out in a competent and timely manner, and Borrower is
hereby authorized to collect and receipt for the insurance proceeds (the
"PROCEEDS"). In the event of an Insured Casualty where the loss exceeds $250,000
(a "SIGNIFICANT CASUALTY"), Borrower may settle and adjust any claim with the
prior written consent of Lender (which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed) unless either (i) an Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing or (ii) the loss equals or exceeds $1,000,000, in which either such
case Lender may, in its sole discretion, settle and adjust any claim without the
consent of Borrower and agree with the insurer(s) on the amount to be paid on
the loss, and the Proceeds shall be due and payable solely to Lender and held by
Lender in the Casualty/Condemnation Subaccount and disbursed in accordance
herewith. If Borrower or any party other than Lender is a payee on any check
representing Proceeds with respect to a Significant Casualty, Borrower shall
immediately endorse, and cause all such third parties to endorse, such check
payable to the order of Lender. Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Lender as
its attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest, to endorse such check payable to
the order of Lender. The expenses incurred by Lender in the settlement,
adjustment and collection of the Proceeds shall become part of the Debt and
shall be reimbursed by Borrower to Lender upon demand. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary contained herein, if in connection with a Casualty any insurance
carrier makes a payment under a property insurance Policy that Borrower proposes
be treated as business or rental interruption insurance, then, notwithstanding
any designation (or lack of designation) by the insurance carrier as to the
purpose of such payment, as between Lender and Borrower, such payment shall not
be treated as business or rental interruption insurance proceeds unless Borrower
has demonstrated to Lender's satisfaction that the remaining net Proceeds that
will be received from the property insurance carriers are sufficient to pay one
hundred percent (100%) of the cost of fully restoring the Improvements or,
57
if such net Proceeds are to be applied to repay the Debt in accordance with the
terms hereof, that such remaining net Proceeds will be sufficient to pay the
Debt in full.
7.3 CONDEMNATION.
7.3.1 NOTICE; RESTORATION. Borrower shall promptly give Lender
notice of the actual or threatened commencement of any condemnation or eminent
domain proceeding affecting the Property (a "CONDEMNATION") and shall deliver to
Lender copies of any and all papers served in connection with such Condemnation.
Following the occurrence of a Condemnation, Borrower, regardless of whether an
Award is available (unless Lender has breached its obligation (if any) to make
such Award available pursuant to Section 7.4.1), shall promptly proceed to
restore, repair, replace or rebuild the Property in accordance with Legal
Requirements to the extent practicable to be of at least equal value and of
substantially the same character (and to have the same utility) as prior to such
Condemnation.
7.3.2 COLLECTION OF AWARD. If a Condemnation occurs where the
award or payment in respect thereof (an "AWARD") does not exceed $250,000 or
which results in the taking of five percent (5%) or less of the Property,
provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower may make
any compromise, adjustment or settlement in connection with such Condemnation
with the prior written consent of Lender, not to be unreasonably withheld,
provided such adjustment is carried out in a competent and timely manner, and
Borrower is hereby authorized to collect and receipt for the Award. In the event
of a Condemnation where the Award is in excess of $250,000 or which results in
the taking of more than five percent (5%) of the Property, Lender is hereby
irrevocably appointed as Borrower's attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest,
with exclusive power to collect, receive and retain such Award and to make any
compromise, adjustment or settlement in connection with such Condemnation with
the prior consent of Borrower (unless an Event of Default is continuing, in
which case, Borrower's prior consent shall not be required), not to be
unreasonably withheld (which shall be deemed consented to if Borrower fails to
respond to any request for consent therefor within 10 days' of request).
Notwithstanding any Condemnation (or any transfer made in lieu of or in
anticipation of such Condemnation), Borrower shall continue to pay the Debt at
the time and in the manner provided for in the Loan Documents, and the Debt
shall not be reduced unless and until any Award shall have been actually
received and applied by Lender to expenses of collecting the Award and to
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 in the Note. If the Property is
sold, through foreclosure or otherwise, prior to the receipt by Lender of such
Award, Lender shall have the right, whether or not a deficiency judgment on the
Note shall be recoverable or shall have been sought, recovered or denied, to
receive all or a portion of the Award sufficient to pay the Debt. Borrower shall
cause any Award that is payable to Borrower to be paid directly to Lender.
Lender shall hold such Award in the Casualty/Condemnation Subaccount and
disburse such Award in accordance with the terms hereof.
7.4 APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS OR AWARD.
7.4.1 APPLICATION TO RESTORATION. If an Insured Casualty or
Condemnation occurs where (i) the loss is in an aggregate amount less than
twenty five percent (25%) of the
58
unpaid Principal, (ii) in the reasonable judgment of Lender, the Property can be
restored within nine months after all applicable restoration permits have been
obtained, and prior to six months before the Stated Maturity Date and prior to
the expiration of the rental or business interruption insurance with respect
thereto, to the Property's pre-existing condition and utility as existed
immediately prior to such Insured Casualty or Condemnation and to an economic
unit not less valuable and not less useful than the same was immediately prior
to the Insured Casualty or Condemnation, and after such restoration will
adequately secure the Debt, (iii) less than (x) thirty percent (30%), in the
case of an Insured Casualty or (y) fifteen percent (15%), in the case of a
Condemnation, of the rentable area of the Improvements has been damaged,
destroyed or rendered unusable as a result of such Insured Casualty or
Condemnation; (iv) Leases demising in the aggregate at least sixty five percent
(65%) of the total rentable space in the Property and in effect as of the date
of the occurrence of such Insured Casualty or Condemnation remain in full force
and effect during and after the completion of the Restoration (hereinafter
defined); and (v) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be then
continuing, then the Proceeds or the Award, as the case may be (after
reimbursement of any expenses incurred by Lender), shall be applied to pay for
or reimburse Borrower for the cost of restoring, repairing, replacing or
rebuilding the Property (the "RESTORATION"), in the manner set forth herein.
Borrower shall commence and diligently prosecute such Restoration.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall Lender be obligated to apply
the Proceeds or Award to reimburse Borrower for the cost of Restoration unless,
in addition to satisfaction of the foregoing conditions, both (x) Borrower shall
pay (and if required by Lender, Borrower shall deposit with Lender in advance)
all costs of such Restoration in excess of the net amount of the Proceeds or the
Award made available pursuant to the terms hereof; and (y) Lender shall have
received evidence reasonably satisfactory to it that during the period of the
Restoration, the Rents will be at least equal to the sum of the operating
expenses and Debt Service, as reasonably determined by Lender.
7.4.2 APPLICATION TO DEBT. Except as provided in Section
7.4.1, any Proceeds and/or Award may, at the option of Lender in its discretion,
be applied to the payment of (i) accrued but unpaid interest on the Note, (ii)
the unpaid Principal and (iii) other charges due under the Note and/or any of
the other Loan Documents, or applied to reimburse Borrower for the cost of any
Restoration, in the manner set forth in Section 7.4.3. Any such prepayment of
the Loan shall be without any Yield Maintenance Premium, unless an Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing at the time the Proceeds are received
from the insurance company or the Award is received from the condemning
authority, as the case may be, in which event Borrower shall pay to Lender an
additional amount equal to the Yield Maintenance Premium, if any, that may be
required with respect to the amount of the Proceeds or Award applied to the
unpaid Principal. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if
any Proceeds or Award are not required to be made available for a Restoration
and are retained and applied by Lender toward the payment of the Debt, Borrower
may prepay the entire outstanding Principal without payment of any Yield
Maintenance Premium provided that (x) such prepayment is made within 90 days
after Lender applies such Proceeds or Award to the Debt and (y) together with
such prepayment, Borrower pay to Lender all accrued and unpaid interest and all
other sums payable under the Loan Documents.
7.4.3 PROCEDURE FOR APPLICATION TO RESTORATION. If Borrower is
entitled to reimbursement out of the Proceeds or an Award held by Lender, such
Proceeds or Award shall
59
be disbursed from time to time from the Casualty/Condemnation Subaccount upon
Lender being furnished with (i) evidence satisfactory to Lender of the estimated
cost of completion of the Restoration, (ii) a fixed price or guaranteed maximum
cost construction contract for Restoration satisfactory to Lender, (iii) prior
to the commencement of Restoration, all immediately available funds in addition
to the Proceeds or Award that in Lender's judgment are required to complete the
proposed Restoration (or such additional funds are irrevocably committed to the
satisfaction of Lender by or on behalf of Borrower for that purpose), (iv) such
architect's certificates, waivers of lien, contractor's sworn statements, title
insurance endorsements, bonds, plats of survey, permits, approvals, licenses and
such other documents and items as Lender may reasonably require and approve in
Lender's discretion, and (v) all plans and specifications for such Restoration,
such plans and specifications to be approved by Lender in writing prior to
commencement of any work. Lender may, at Borrower's expense, retain a consultant
to review and approve all requests for disbursements, which approval shall also
be a condition precedent to any disbursement. No payment made prior to the final
completion of the Restoration shall exceed ninety percent (90%) of the value of
the work performed from time to time; funds other than the Proceeds or Award
shall be disbursed prior to disbursement of such Proceeds or Award; and at all
times, the undisbursed balance of such Proceeds or Award remaining in the hands
of Lender, together with funds deposited for that purpose or irrevocably
committed to the satisfaction of Lender by or on behalf of Borrower for that
purpose, shall be at least sufficient in the reasonable judgment of Lender to
pay for the cost of completion of the Restoration, free and clear of all Liens
or claims for Lien. Provided no Default or Event of Default then exists, any
surplus that remains out of the Proceeds held by Lender after payment of such
costs of Restoration shall be paid to Borrower. Any surplus that remains out of
the Award received by Lender after payment of such costs of Restoration shall,
in the discretion of Lender, be retained by Lender and applied to payment of the
Debt or returned to Borrower.
8. DEFAULTS
8.1 EVENTS OF DEFAULT. An "Event of Default" shall exist with
respect to the Loan if any of the following shall occur:
(a) any portion of the Debt is not paid when due or any other amount
under Section 3.11(a)(i) through (vii) is not paid in full on each Payment Date
(provided, however, if adequate funds are available in the Deposit Account for
such payments, the failure by the Deposit Bank to allocate such funds into the
appropriate Subaccounts shall not constitute an Event of Default);
(b) any of the Taxes are not paid when due (unless Lender is paying
such Taxes pursuant to Section 3.3), subject to Borrower's right to contest
Taxes in accordance with Section 5.2;
(c) the Policies are not kept in full force and effect, or are not
delivered to Lender pursuant to Section 7.1.2(v) within 10 days after request;

pursuant to federal bankruptcy law, or any similar federal or state law, shall
be filed by or against, consented to, or acquiesced in by, Borrower or
Guarantor, as the case may be; or any proceeding for the dissolution or
liquidation of Borrower or Guarantor shall be instituted; provided however, if
such appointment, adjudication, petition or proceeding was involuntary and not
consented to by Borrower or Guarantor, as the case may be, only upon the same
not being discharged, stayed or dismissed within 60 days;
(h) Borrower breaches any covenant contained in Sections 5.12.1 (a)
- (f), 5.13, 5.15, 5.22 (other than failure to pay trade payables within 60 days

(i) except as expressly permitted hereunder, the alteration,
improvement, demolition or removal of all or any of portion of the Improvements

connection with the Loan or otherwise hereunder, were not true and correct as of
the date of such opinion or thereafter became untrue or incorrect;
(m) if Key Principal fails to Control (as defined in clause (ii) of
the defined term "Control" in Section 1.1) the Manager and the day to day
management and operations of the Property (unless the Manager is replaced with a

and conditions set forth in Section 5.12.2); or
(n) a default shall be continuing under any of the other terms,
covenants or conditions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document not
otherwise specified in this Section 8.1, for ten days after notice to Borrower
(and Guarantor, if applicable) from Lender, in the case of any default which can
be cured by the payment of a sum of money, or for 30 days after notice from
Lender in the case of any other default; provided, however, that if such
non-monetary
61
default is susceptible of cure but cannot reasonably be cured within such 30-day
period, and Borrower (or Guarantor, if applicable) shall have commenced to cure
such default within such 30-day period and thereafter diligently and
expeditiously proceeds to cure the same, such 30-day period shall be extended
for an additional period of time as is reasonably necessary for Borrower (or
Guarantor, if applicable) in the exercise of due diligence to cure such default,
such additional period not to exceed 60 days.
8.2 REMEDIES.
8.2.1 ACCELERATION. Upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default described in
paragraph (f) or (g) of Section 8.1) and at any time and from time to time
thereafter during the continuance of such Event of Default, in addition to any
other rights or remedies available to it pursuant to the Loan Documents or at
law or in equity, Lender may take such action, without notice or demand, that
Lender deems advisable to protect and enforce its rights against Borrower and in
and to the Property; including declaring the Debt to be immediately due and
payable (including unpaid interest), Default Rate interest, Late Payment
Charges, Yield Maintenance Premium and any other amounts owing by Borrower),
without notice or demand; and upon any Event of Default described in paragraph
(f) or (g) of Section 8.1, the Debt (including unpaid interest, Default Rate
interest, Late Payment Charges, Yield Maintenance Premium and any other amounts
owing by Borrower) shall immediately and automatically become due and payable,
without notice or demand, and Borrower hereby expressly waives any such notice
or demand, anything contained in any Loan Document to the contrary
notwithstanding.
8.2.2 REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. 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
the Loan Documents 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,
or be automatically, 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 any of the Loan Documents. Any such actions taken by
Lender shall be cumulative and concurrent and may be pursued independently,
singly, successively, together or otherwise, at such time and in such order as
Lender may determine in its discretion, to the fullest extent permitted by law,
without impairing or otherwise affecting the other rights and remedies of Lender
permitted by law, equity or contract or as set forth in the Loan Documents.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Borrower agrees that if an
Event of Default is continuing, (i) to the extent permitted by applicable law,
Lender is not subject to any "one action" or "election of remedies" law or rule,
and (ii) all Liens and other rights, remedies or privileges provided to Lender
shall remain in full force and effect until Lender has exhausted all of its
remedies against the Property, the Mortgage has been foreclosed, the Property
has been sold and/or otherwise realized upon in satisfaction of the Debt or the
Debt has been paid in full. To the extent permitted by applicable law, nothing
contained in any Loan Document shall be construed as requiring Lender to resort
to any particular Property or any portion of the Property for the satisfaction
of any of the Debt in preference or priority to any other portion, and Lender
may seek satisfaction out of the entire Property or any part thereof, in its
discretion.
62
8.2.3 SEVERANCE. 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, mortgages and other security
documents in such denominations and priorities of payment and liens as Lender
shall determine in its discretion for purposes of evidencing and enforcing its
rights and remedies. 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 such severance, Borrower
ratifying all that such attorney shall do by virtue thereof.
8.2.4 DELAY. No delay or omission to exercise any remedy,
right or power accruing upon an Event of Default, or the granting of any
indulgence or compromise by Lender shall impair any such remedy, right or power
hereunder or 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 shall not be construed to
be a waiver of any subsequent Default or Event of Default or to impair any
remedy, right or power consequent thereon. Notwithstanding any other provision
of this Agreement, Lender reserves the right to seek a deficiency judgment or
preserve a deficiency claim in connection with the foreclosure of the Mortgage
to the extent necessary to foreclose on all or any portion of the Property, the
Rents, the Cash Management Accounts or any other collateral.
8.2.5 LENDER'S RIGHT TO PERFORM. If Borrower fails to perform
any covenant or obligation contained herein and such failure shall continue for
a period of five Business Days after Borrower's receipt of written notice
thereof from Lender, without in any way limiting Lender's right to exercise any
of its rights, powers or remedies as provided hereunder, or under any of the
other Loan Documents, Lender may, but shall have no obligation to, perform, or
cause performance of, such covenant or obligation, and all costs, expenses,
liabilities, penalties and fines of Lender incurred or paid in connection
therewith shall be payable by Borrower to Lender upon demand and if not paid
shall be added to the Debt (and to the extent permitted under applicable laws,
secured by the Mortgage and other Loan Documents) and shall bear interest
thereafter at the Default Rate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender shall have
no obligation to send notice to Borrower of any such failure. Additionally,
during the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender shall have the right, but
not the obligation, to make any Protective Advance (hereinafter defined)
(provided, however, that Lender will only make such Protective Advance from its
own funds if there are insufficient funds in the Cash Management Accounts), and
the same shall be added to the Debt (and to the extent permitted under
applicable laws, secured by the Mortgage and other Loan Documents) and shall
bear interest thereafter at the Default Rate. As used herein, "PROTECTIVE
ADVANCE" means all sums advanced for the purpose of payment of real estate taxes
(including special payments in lieu of real estate taxes), maintenance costs,
insurance premiums, operating expenses, trade payables or other items with
respect to the Property (including capital items) reasonably necessary to
protect the Property or any other security given for the Loan or to preserve any
of Lender's rights or remedies under the Loan Documents.
63
9. SPECIAL PROVISIONS
9.1 SALE OF NOTE AND SECONDARY MARKET TRANSACTION.
9.1.1 GENERAL; BORROWER COOPERATION. Lender shall have the
right at any time and from time to time (i) to sell or otherwise transfer the

or more investors, (ii) to sell participation interests in the Loan to one or
more investors or (iii) to securitize the Loan or any portion thereof in a
single asset securitization or a pooled loan securitization of rated single or
multi-class securities (the "SECURITIES") secured by or evidencing ownership
interests in the Note and the Mortgage (each such sale, assignment,
participation and/or securitization is referred to herein as a "SECONDARY MARKET
TRANSACTION"). In connection with any Secondary Market Transaction, Borrower
shall use all reasonable efforts and cooperate fully and in good faith with
Lender and otherwise assist Lender in satisfying the market standards to which
Lender customarily adheres or which may be reasonably required in the
marketplace or by the Rating Agencies in connection with any such Secondary

and any tenants of the Property, (ii) provide business plans and budgets
relating to the Property and (iii) perform or permit or cause to be performed or
permitted such site inspection, appraisals, surveys, market studies,
environmental reviews and reports, engineering reports and other due diligence
investigations of the Property, as may be reasonably requested from time to time
by Lender or the Rating Agencies or as may be necessary or appropriate in
connection with a Secondary Market Transaction or Exchange Act requirements (the
items provided to Lender pursuant to clauses (i) and (ii) of this paragraph (a)
being called the "PROVIDED INFORMATION"), together, if customary, with
appropriate verification of and/or consents to the Provided Information through
letters of auditors or opinions of counsel of independent attorneys acceptable
to Lender and the Rating Agencies; (b) at Borrower's expense, cause counsel to
render opinions as to non-consolidation (which may be an update of an existing
non-consolidation opinion) and any other opinion customary in securitization
transactions with respect to the Property, Borrower and their Affiliates, which
counsel and opinions shall be reasonably satisfactory to Lender and the Rating
Agencies; (c) make such representations and warranties as of the closing date of
any Secondary Market Transaction with respect to the Property, Borrower and the
Loan Documents as are customarily provided in such transactions and as may be
reasonably requested by Lender or the Rating Agencies and consistent with the
facts covered by such representations and warranties as they exist on the date
thereof, including the representations and warranties made in the Loan
Documents; (d) provide current certificates of good standing and qualification
with respect to Borrower from appropriate Governmental Authorities; and (e)
execute such amendments to the Loan Documents and Borrower's organizational
documents, as may be requested by Lender or the Rating Agencies or otherwise to
effect a Secondary Market Transaction, provided that nothing contained in this
subsection (e) shall result in changes to Loan terms adverse to Borrower or
require Borrower to incur any additional liabilities. Borrower's cooperation
obligations set forth herein shall continue until the Loan has been paid in
full.
9.1.2 USE OF INFORMATION. Borrower understands that all or any
portion of the Provided Information and any other information and/or materials
delivered by or on behalf of Borrower, Guarantor or any of their respective
Affiliates may be included in disclosure documents in connection with a
Secondary Market Transaction, including a prospectus or private
64
placement memorandum (each, a "DISCLOSURE DOCUMENT") and may also be included in
filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), or the Securities and Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended (the "EXCHANGE ACT"), or provided or made available to
investors or prospective investors in the Securities, the Rating Agencies, and
service providers or other parties relating to the Secondary Market Transaction.
If the Disclosure Document is required to be revised, Borrower shall cooperate
with Lender in updating the Provided Information or such other information
and/or materials for inclusion or summary in the Disclosure Document or for
other use reasonably required in connection with a Secondary Market Transaction
by providing all current information pertaining to Borrower, Manager and the
Property necessary to keep the Disclosure Document accurate and complete in all
material respects with respect to such matters.
9.1.3 BORROWER OBLIGATIONS REGARDING DISCLOSURE DOCUMENTS. In
connection with a Disclosure Document, Borrower shall, if requested by Lender,
certify in writing that Borrower has carefully examined those portions of such
Disclosure Document, pertaining to Borrower, the Property Manager and the Loan,
and that such portions do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or
omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements made, in
the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 9.1.3,
nothing contained herein shall impose liability upon a Borrower for any losses,
claims, damages or liability arising out of or based upon an untrue statement of
any material fact contained in any statement, report or document provided to
Lender on behalf of Borrower by a party who is not an Affiliate of a Borrower (a
"THIRD PARTY REPORT"), unless Borrower had actual knowledge at the time Borrower
provided such statement, report or document to Lender that such Third Party
Report contains such untrue statement.
9.1.4 BORROWER INDEMNITY REGARDING FILINGS. In connection with
filings under the Exchange Act, Borrower shall (A) indemnify any (i)
underwriter, syndicate member or placement agent (collectively, the
"UNDERWRITERS") retained by Lender or its issuing company affiliate ("ISSUER")
in connection with a Secondary Market Transaction, and (ii) the Indemnified
Parties, for any Indemnified Liabilities to which any such Underwriter or
Indemnified Party may become subject arising out of or based upon the omission
to state in the Provided Information a material fact required to be stated in
the Provided Information in order to make the statements in the Provided
Information, in light of the circumstances under which they were made not
misleading, and (B) reimburse any such Underwriter and Indemnified Party for any
legal or other expenses actually incurred by it in connection with defending or
investigating the Indemnified Liabilities. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in this Section 9.1.4, nothing contained herein shall impose
liability upon a Borrower for any Indemnified Liabilities arising out of or
based upon an untrue statement of any material fact contained in any Third Party
Report, unless Borrower had actual knowledge at the time Borrower provided such
statement, report or document to Lender that such Third Party Report contains
such untrue statement.
9.1.5 INDEMNIFICATION PROCEDURE. Promptly after receipt by any
Underwriter or Indemnified Party under Section 9.1.3 or 9.1.4 of notice of the
commencement of any action for which a claim for indemnification is to be made
against Borrower, such Underwriter or Indemnified Party shall notify Borrower in
writing of such commencement, but the omission to so notify Borrower will not
relieve Borrower from any liability that they may have to any
65
Underwriter or Indemnified Party hereunder except to the extent that failure to
notify causes prejudice to Borrower. If any action is brought against any
Underwriter or Indemnified Party, and it notifies Borrower of the commencement
thereof, Borrower will be entitled, jointly with any other indemnifying party,
to participate therein and, to the extent that it (or they) may elect by written
notice delivered to the Underwriter or Indemnified Party promptly after
receiving the aforesaid notice of commencement, to assume the defense thereof
with counsel satisfactory to such Underwriter or Indemnified Party in its
discretion. After notice from Borrower to such Underwriter or Indemnified Party
under this Section 9.1.5, Borrower shall not be responsible for any legal or
other expenses subsequently incurred by such Underwriter or Indemnified Party in
connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of
investigation; provided, however, if the defendants in any such action include
both Borrower and either an Underwriter or Indemnified Party, and any
Underwriter or Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded that there are
any legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties that are
different from or additional to those available to Borrower, then the
Underwriter(s) or Indemnified Party(ies) shall have the right to select separate
counsel to assert such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the
defense of such action on behalf of such Underwriter(s) or Indemnified
Party(ies). Borrower shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one
separate counsel unless there are legal defenses available to it that are
different from or additional to those available to another Underwriter or
Indemnified Party.
9.1.6 CONTRIBUTION. In order to provide for just and equitable
contribution in circumstances in which the indemnity agreement provided for in
Section 9.1.3 or 9.1.4 is for any reason held to be unenforceable by an
Underwriter or Indemnified Party in respect of any Indemnified Liabilities (or
action in respect thereof) referred to therein which would otherwise be
indemnifiable under Section 9.1.3 or 9.1.4, Borrower shall contribute to the
amount paid or payable by the Underwriter or Indemnified Party as a result of
such Indemnified Liabilities (or action in respect thereof); provided, however,
that no Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of
Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any
Person not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. In determining the
amount of contribution to which the respective parties are entitled, the
following factors shall be considered: (i) the Citigroup Group's (as defined
herein below) and Borrower's relative knowledge and access to information
concerning the matter with respect to which the claim was asserted; (ii) the
opportunity to correct and prevent any statement or omission; and (iii) any
other equitable considerations appropriate in the circumstances. Lender and
Borrower hereby agree that it may not be equitable if the amount of such
contribution were determined by pro rata or per capita allocation. For the
purposes hereof, the term "CITIGROUP GROUP" shall mean all of the following
Persons collectively: the Lender, the Issuer that is named in the Disclosure
Document or registration statement relating to a Secondary Market Transaction
(the "REGISTRATION STATEMENT"), and each of the Issuer's directors, each of its
officers who have signed the Registration Statement and each Person who controls
the Issuer or the Lender within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act
or Section 30 of the Exchange Act.
9.1.7 SEVERANCE OF LOAN. Lender shall have the right, at any
time (whether prior to, in connection with, or after any Secondary Market
Transaction), with respect to all or any portion of the Loan, to modify, split
and/or sever all or any portion of the Loan as hereinafter provided. Without
limiting the foregoing, Lender may (i) cause the Note and the Mortgage to be
split into a first and second mortgage loan, (ii) create one or more senior and
subordinate notes
66
(I.E., an A/B or A/B/C structure), (iii) create multiple components of the Note
or Notes (and allocate or reallocate the principal balance of the Loan among
such components) or (iv) otherwise sever the Loan into two or more loans secured
by mortgages and by a pledge of partnership or membership interests (directly or
indirectly) in Borrower (I.E., a senior loan/mezzanine loan structure), in each
such case, in whatever proportion and whatever priority Lender determines;
provided, however, in each such instance the outstanding principal balance of
all the Notes evidencing the Loan (or components of such Notes) immediately
after the effective date of such modification equals the outstanding principal
balance of the Loan immediately prior to such modification and the weighted
average of the interest rates for all such Notes (or components of such Notes)
immediately after the effective date of such modification equals the interest
rate of the original Note immediately prior to such modification. If requested
by Lender, Borrower (and Borrower's constituent members, if applicable, and
Guarantor) shall execute within seven (7) Business Days after such request, such
documentation as Lender may reasonably request to evidence and/or effectuate any
such modification or severance.
9.2 COSTS AND EXPENSES. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in this Article 9, Borrower shall not be required to incur
out-of-pocket expenses in the performance of their obligations under Sections
9.1.1 (other than with respect to the delivery or update of non-consolidation
opinions), 9.1.2, 9.1.3 and 9.1.7.
9.3 MEZZANINE LOAN. Lender agrees to permit owner(s) of direct or
indirect equity interests in Borrower (the "MEZZANINE Borrower", provided
however that in no event shall any entity required hereunder to be a Special
Purpose Bankruptcy Remote Entity be a Mezzanine Borrower) to obtain a mezzanine
loan (the "MEZZANINE LOAN"), subject to satisfaction of the following conditions
(provided that no more than one Mezzanine Loan shall be permitted during the
term of the Loan):
(a) no Event of Default shall exist;
(b) the Mezzanine Loan may be secured by a pledge by
Mezzanine Borrower of such Mezzanine Borrower's direct or indirect equity
interest in Borrower, but not by the Property or any assets of Borrower or of
any other entity required hereunder to be a Single Purpose Bankruptcy Remote
Entity, and neither Borrower nor any other entity required hereunder to be a
Special Purpose Bankruptcy Remote Entity shall in any way be obligated in
connection with the Mezzanine Loan (except for non-monetary obligations
reasonably acceptable to Lender that are customary in connection with mezzanine
loans involving securitized senior loans);
(c) if a Secondary Market Transaction has occurred, Borrower
shall have obtained (and delivered to Lender) a Rating Comfort Letter with
respect to the proposed Mezzanine Loan;
(d) the Mezzanine Loan lender (the "MEZZANINE LENDER") shall
be an Acceptable Mezzanine Lender;
(e) the Mezzanine Lender shall, upon Lender's request,
execute a subordination and standstill intercreditor agreement (the
"INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT") in form approved by Lender, which approval shall not
be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed so long as the
67
Intercreditor Agreement is otherwise in conformance with Rating Agency approved
forms for intercreditor agreements;
(f) the Net Operating Income of the Property, as reasonably
determined by Lender for the 12 month period then most recently ended, is
sufficient to satisfy an aggregate projected debt service coverage ratio (based
on the aggregate of the debt service on the Loan and the Mezzanine Loan) of at
least 1.10:1.00;
(g) Lender shall have approved (such approval not to be
unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) the loan documents evidencing and
securing the Mezzanine Loan;
(h) the maturity of the Mezzanine Loan shall be no earlier
than the Maturity Date;
(i) the Property value, as determined by Lender based on a
FIRREA appraisal dated not more than six (6) months prior to the date of the
Mezzanine Loan and otherwise reasonably acceptable to Lender, prepared, at
Borrower's expense, on behalf of Lender by an appraiser reasonably approved by
Lender which is a member of the Appraisal Institute with substantial experience
in appraising properties similar to the Property is sufficient to satisfy an
aggregate loan-to-value ratio (based on the aggregate balances of the Loan and
the Mezzanine Loan) not in excess of 80%;
(j) Mezzanine Loan payments shall be made solely from excess
Property cash flow distributed by the Borrower to its owners after payment of
all debt service and reserve payments under the Loan and operating expenses for
the Property or from other funds of Mezzanine Borrower; and
(k) Borrower shall enter into such amendments or supplements
to the Loan Documents as Lender may require in order to establish a hard lock
box and cash management arrangement whereby Property cash flow is deposited and
applied, through Lender-controlled accounts, first to debt service and reserves
required under the Loan, then to fund operating expenses, prior to any
distributions of excess Property cash flow to the Borrower's owners for payments
upon the Mezzanine Loan.
Borrower shall pay or reimburse to Lender all Rating Agency fees and all
reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Lender, including fees and expenses of
Lender's counsel, in connection with the review and documentation concerning the
Mezzanine Loan regardless of whether such Mezzanine Loan is closed.
9.4 LETTERS OF CREDIT9.5 . Each of the letters of credit delivered
by Borrower under this Agreement (each, a "LETTER OF CREDIT"; collectively, the
"LETTERS OF CREDIT") shall be additional security for the payment of the Debt.
In the event Lender transfers any Letter of Credit to any successor or assignee
of Lender, and the issuer of the Letter of Credit charges a fee in connection
with such transfer, Borrower shall pay or reimburse Lender for such transfer
fee.

hereby incorporated by reference as a part of the Agreement with the same force
and effect as if set forth in the body hereof.
10.10 SEVERABILITY. Wherever possible, each provision of this
Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under

this Agreement or any other Loan Document specifically and expressly requires
the giving of notice by Lender to Borrower and except with respect to matters
for which Borrower is not, pursuant to applicable Legal Requirements, permitted
to waive the giving of notice. Borrower hereby expressly waives the right to
receive any notice from Lender with respect to any matter for which no Loan
Document specifically and expressly requires the giving of notice by Lender to
Borrower.
10.13 REMEDIES OF BORROWER. If a claim or adjudication is made that
Lender or any of its agents, including Servicer, has acted unreasonably or
unreasonably delayed acting in any case where by law or under any Loan Document,
Lender or any such agent, as the case may be, has an obligation to act
reasonably or promptly, Borrower agrees that neither Lender nor its agents,
including Servicer, shall be liable for any monetary damages, and Borrower's
sole remedy shall be to commence an action seeking injunctive relief or
declaratory judgment. Any action or proceeding to determine whether Lender has
acted reasonably shall be determined by an action seeking declaratory judgment.
Borrower specifically waives any claim against Lender and its agents, including
Servicer, with respect to actions taken by Lender or its agents on Borrower's
behalf.
10.14 PRIOR AGREEMENTS. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents

right to assert a counterclaim, other than a compulsory counterclaim, in any
action or proceeding brought against Borrower by Lender or its agents, including

the Loan Documents. Any assignee of Lender's interest in and to the Loan
Documents shall take the same free and clear of all offsets, counterclaims or
defenses which Borrower may otherwise have (including with respect to any future
funding obligation, if any, or any default or dispute relating thereto) against
any assignor of such documents, and no such offset, counterclaim or defense
shall be interposed or asserted by Borrower in any action or proceeding brought
by any such assignee upon such documents, and any such right to interpose or
assert any such offset, counterclaim or defense in any such action or proceeding
is hereby expressly waived by Borrower.
10.16 PUBLICITY. All news releases, publicity or advertising by
Borrower or its Affiliates through any media intended to reach the general
public, which refers to the Loan Documents, the Loan, Lender or any member of
the Citigroup Group, a Loan purchaser, the Servicer or the trustee in a
Secondary Market Transaction, shall be subject to the prior written approval of
Lender; provided however, that Lender's consent shall not be required by
Borrower, Borrower's Affiliates, or any broker dealer or investor representative
related to the marketing or sale of any investment fund or investment trust
managed by Borrower's Affiliates which disclosure is required under the
Securities Act of 1933 or 1934 or to any potential purchaser of an interest in
the Property. Lender shall have the right to issue any of the foregoing without
Borrower's approval.
74
10.17 NO USURY. Borrower and Lender intend at all times to comply with
applicable state law or applicable United States federal law (to the extent that
it permits Lender to contract for, charge, take, reserve or receive a greater
amount of interest than under state law) and that this Section 10.17 shall
control every other agreement in the Loan Documents. If the applicable law
(state or federal) is ever judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any
amount called for under the Note or any other Loan Document, or contracted for,
charged, taken, reserved or received with respect to the Debt, or if Lender's
exercise of the option to accelerate the maturity of the Loan or any prepayment
by Borrower results in Borrower having paid any interest in excess of that
permitted by applicable law, then it is Borrower's and Lender's express intent
that all excess amounts theretofore collected by Lender shall be credited
against the unpaid Principal and all other Debt (or, if the Debt has been or
would thereby be paid in full, refunded to Borrower), and the provisions of the
Loan Documents immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter
collectible thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any
new document, so as to comply with applicable law, but so as to permit the
recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for thereunder. All sums paid or
agreed to be paid to Lender for the use, forbearance or detention of 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 Debt does not
exceed the maximum lawful rate from time to time in effect and applicable to the
Debt for so long as the Debt is outstanding. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in any Loan Document, it is not the intention of Lender to
accelerate the maturity of any interest that has not accrued at the time of such
acceleration or to collect unearned interest at the time of such acceleration.
10.18 CONFLICT; CONSTRUCTION OF DOCUMENTS. In the event of any
conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and any of the other Loan
Documents, the provisions of this Agreement shall control. The parties hereto
acknowledge that each is represented by separate counsel in connection with the
negotiation and drafting of the Loan Documents and that the Loan Documents shall
not be subject to the principle of construing their meaning against the party
that drafted them.
10.19 NO THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARIES. The Loan Documents are solely for
the benefit of Lender and Borrower and nothing contained in any Loan Document
shall be deemed to confer upon anyone other than the Lender and Borrower any
right to insist upon or to enforce the performance or observance of any of the
obligations contained therein.
10.20 YIELD MAINTENANCE PREMIUM. Borrower acknowledges that (a) Lender
is making the Loan in consideration of the receipt by Lender of all interest and
other benefits intended to be conferred by the Loan Documents and (b) if
payments of Principal are made to Lender prior to the Stated Maturity Date, for
any reason whatsoever, whether voluntary, as a result of Lender's acceleration
of the Loan after an Event of Default, by operation of law or otherwise, Lender
will not receive all such interest and other benefits and may, in addition,
incur costs. For these reasons, and to induce Lender to make the Loan, Borrower
agrees that, except as expressly provided in Section 2.2.3, Section 2.3.2,
Section 2.3.4 and Section 7.4.2 of this Agreement, all prepayments, if any,
whether voluntary or involuntary, will be accompanied by the Yield Maintenance
Premium. Such Yield Maintenance Premium shall be required whether payment is
made by Borrower, by a Person on behalf of Borrower, or by the purchaser at any
foreclosure sale, and may be included in any bid by Lender at such sale.
Borrower further
75
acknowledges that (A) it is knowledgeable real estate developers and/or
investors; (B) it fully understands the effect of the provisions of this Section
10.20, as well as the other provisions of the Loan Documents; (C) the making of
the Loan by Lender at the Interest Rate and other terms set forth in the Loan
Documents are sufficient consideration for Borrower's obligation to pay a Yield
Maintenance Premium (if required); and (D) Lender would not make the Loan on the
terms set forth herein without the inclusion of such provisions. Borrower also
acknowledges that the provisions of this Agreement limiting the right of
prepayment and providing for the payment of the Yield Maintenance Premium and
other charges specified herein were independently negotiated and bargained for,
and constitute a specific material part of the consideration given by Borrower
to Lender for the making of the Loan except as expressly permitted hereunder.
10.21 ASSIGNMENT. The Loan, the Note, the Loan Documents and/or
Lender's rights, title, obligations and interests therein may be assigned by
Lender and any of its successors and assigns to any Person at any time in its
discretion, in whole or in part, whether by operation of law (pursuant to a
merger or other successor in interest) or otherwise. Upon such assignment, all
references to Lender in this Loan Agreement and in any Loan Document shall be
deemed to refer to such assignee or successor in interest and such assignee or
successor in interest shall thereafter stand in the place of Lender. Borrower
may not assign its rights, title, interests or obligations under this Loan
Agreement or under any of the Loan Documents.
10.22 BORROWER'S DESIGNEE. Borrower hereby authorizes, designates and
directs Borrower's Designee to give Lender directions of any kind, to take the
actions or make such deliveries specified herein to be taken or delivered by
Borrower's Designee (including under Sections 5.11, 6.3 and 9.1, and including
with respect to any requisitions from any reserve accounts under Article 3) and
to give and receive notices of any kind on behalf of Borrower under this
Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. Any notice given by Lender to
Borrower's Designee shall be deemed to have been given to each and every
Borrower.
10.23 Intentionally Omitted.
10.24 SET-OFF. IN ADDITION TO ANY RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF LENDER
PROVIDED BY THIS LOAN AGREEMENT AND BY LAW, LENDER SHALL HAVE THE RIGHT, WITHOUT
PRIOR NOTICE TO BORROWER, ANY SUCH NOTICE BEING EXPRESSLY WAIVED BY BORROWER TO
THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, UPON ANY AMOUNT BECOMING DUE AND PAYABLE
BY BORROWER HEREUNDER (WHETHER AT THE STATED MATURITY, BY ACCELERATION OR
OTHERWISE) TO SET-OFF AND APPROPRIATE AND APPLY AGAINST SUCH AMOUNT ANY AND ALL
DEPOSITS (GENERAL OR SPECIAL, TIME OR DEMAND, PROVISIONAL OR FINAL), IN ANY
CURRENCY, AND ANY OTHER CREDITS, INDEBTEDNESS OR CLAIMS, IN ANY CURRENCY, IN
EACH CASE WHETHER DIRECT OR INDIRECT, ABSOLUTE OR CONTINGENT, MATURED OR
UNMATURED, AT ANY TIME HELD OR OWING BY LENDER OR ANY AFFILIATE THEREOF TO OR
FOR THE CREDIT OR THE ACCOUNT OF BORROWER. LENDER AGREES PROMPTLY TO NOTIFY
BORROWER AFTER ANY SUCH SET-OFF AND APPLICATION MADE BY LENDER; PROVIDED THAT
THE FAILURE TO GIVE SUCH NOTICE SHALL NOT AFFECT THE VALIDITY OF SUCH SET-OFF
AND APPLICATION.
10.25 Intentionally Omitted.
76
10.26 COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in any number of
counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original,
but all of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument.
