(xiv) Borrower
has not at any time since its formation entered into and was not a party to,
and, will not enter into or be a party to, any transaction with its Affiliates,
members, partners or shareholders, as applicable, or any Affiliates thereof
except in the ordinary course of business of Borrower on terms which are no less

Partner shall be a corporation or limited liability company whose sole asset is
its interest in Borrower and the General Partner will at all times comply, and

(xvii)
Borrower
and, if applicable, General Partner, shall not cause or permit the board of
directors or board of managers or other governing board or body, as applicable,
of each Borrower or, if applicable, General Partner, to take any action which,
under the terms of any certificate of incorporation, by-laws or articles of
organization with respect to any common stock, requires a unanimous vote of the
board of directors of Borrower, or, if applicable, the General Partner, unless
at the time of such action there shall be at least two members who are
Independent Directors.

shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, conduct its business so that the
assumptions made with respect to Borrower in that certain opinion letter
relating to substantive non-consolidation dated the date hereof (the
“Insolvency
Opinion”)
delivered in connection with the Loan shall be true and correct in all
respects.
Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.02(g), provided Borrower is
a Delaware single member limited liability company which satisfies the single
purpose bankruptcy remote entity requirements of each Rating Agency for a single
member limited liability company, the foregoing provisions of this Section
2.02(g) shall not apply to the General Partner.
(h) No
Defaults. No
Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would occur as a
result of the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Loan

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

regulation which purports to restrict or regulate its ability to borrow
money.
(k) Compliance with
Law. (i)
Except as previously disclosed to Lender in writing, Borrower has received no
notice of violation of any Legal Requirements and (ii) except for such
violations which would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material
Adverse Effect, Borrower is in compliance in all material respects with all
Legal Requirements to which it or the Property is subject, including, without
limitation, all Environmental Statutes, the Occupational Safety and Health Act
of 1970, the Americans with Disabilities Act and ERISA. No portion of the
Property has been or will be purchased, improved, fixtured, equipped or
furnished with proceeds of any illegal activity and to the best of Borrower’s
knowledge, no illegal activities are being conducted at or from the
Property.
(l) Financial
Information. To the
best of Borrower’s knowledge, all financial data that has been delivered by
Borrower to Lender (i) is true, complete and correct in all material respects,
(ii) accurately represents the financial condition and results of operations of
the Persons covered thereby as of the date on which the same shall have been
furnished in all material respects, and (iii) to the extent prepared by an
independent certified public accounting firm, has been prepared in accordance
with GAAP (or such other accounting basis as is reasonably acceptable to Lender)

contingent liability, liability for taxes or other unusual or forward commitment
not reflected in such financial statements delivered to Lender. Since the date
of the last financial statements delivered by Borrower to Lender except as
otherwise disclosed in such financial statements or notes thereto, there has
been no change in the assets, liabilities or financial position of Borrower nor,
if applicable, any General Partner, or in the results of operations of Borrower
which would have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither Borrower nor, if applicable,
any General Partner, has incurred any obligation or liability, contingent or
otherwise not reflected in such financial statements which would have a Material
Adverse Effect.
(m) Transaction Brokerage
Fees. Neither
Borrower nor Lender have dealt with any financial advisors, brokers,
underwriters, placement agents, agents or finders in connection with the
transactions contemplated by this Security Instrument. BORROWER HEREBY AGREES TO INDEMNIFY
AND HOLD LENDER HARMLESS FOR, FROM AND AGAINST ANY AND ALL CLAIMS, LIABILITIES,
COSTS AND EXPENSES OF ANY KIND IN ANY WAY RELATING TO OR ARISING FROM (I) A
CLAIM BY ANY PERSON THAT SUCH PERSON ACTED ON BEHALF OF BORROWER IN CONNECTION
WITH THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREIN OR (II) ANY BREACH OF THE FOREGOING
REPRESENTATION. THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SUBSECTION (M) SHALL SURVIVE THE
REPAYMENT OF THE DEBT.
-28-
(n) Federal Reserve
Regulations. 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 Regulations T, U or X of the
Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or for any other purpose which
would be inconsistent with such Regulations T, U or X or any other Regulations
of such Board of Governors, or for any purposes prohibited by Legal Requirements
or by the terms and conditions of the Loan Documents.
(o) Pending
Litigation. Except
as previously disclosed in writing to Lender, there are no actions, suits or
proceedings pending or, to the knowledge of Borrower, threatened against or
affecting Borrower or the Property in any court or before any Governmental
Authority which if adversely determined either individually or collectively has
or is reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.
(p) Solvency; No
Bankruptcy.
Borrower and, if applicable, the General Partner, (i) is and has at all times
been Solvent and will remain Solvent immediately upon the consummation of the
transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents and (ii) is free from
bankruptcy, reorganization or arrangement proceedings or a general assignment
for the benefit of creditors and is not contemplating the filing of a petition
under any state or federal bankruptcy or insolvency laws or the liquidation of
all or a major portion of such Person’s assets or property and Borrower has no
knowledge of any Person contemplating the filing of any such petition against it
or, if applicable, the General Partner. None of the transactions contemplated
hereby will be or have been made with an intent to hinder, delay or defraud any
present or future creditors of Borrower and Borrower has received reasonably
equivalent value in exchange for its obligations under the Loan Documents.
Borrower’s assets do not, and immediately upon consummation of the transaction
contemplated in the Loan Documents will not, constitute unreasonably small
capital to carry out its business as presently conducted or as proposed to be
conducted. Borrower does not intend to, nor believe that it will, incur debts
and liabilities beyond its ability to pay such debts as they may
mature.
(q) Use of
Proceeds. The
proceeds of the Loan shall be applied by Borrower to, inter alia, (i)
satisfy certain secured loans presently encumbering all or a part of the
Property and (ii) pay certain transaction costs incurred by Borrower in
connection with the Loan. No portion of the proceeds of the Loan will be used by
Borrower for family, personal, agricultural or household use.
(r) Tax
Filings.
Borrower and, if applicable, each General Partner, have filed 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 and, if applicable, each General Partner.
Borrower and, if applicable, each General Partner, believe that their respective
tax returns properly reflect the income and taxes of Borrower and said General
Partner, if any, for the periods covered thereby, subject only to reasonable
adjustments required by the Internal Revenue Service or other applicable tax
authority upon audit.
-29-
(s) Not Foreign
Person.
Borrower is not a “foreign person” within the meaning of §1445(f)(3) of the
Code.
(t) ERISA. (i)
The
assets of Borrower and Guarantor are not and will not become treated as “plan
assets”, whether by operation of law or under regulations promulgated under
ERISA. Each Plan and Welfare Plan, and, to the knowledge of Borrower, each
Multiemployer Plan, is in compliance in all material respects with, and has been
administered in all material respects in compliance with, its terms and the
applicable provisions of ERISA, the Code and any other applicable Legal
Requirement, and no event or condition has occurred and is continuing as to
which Borrower would be under an obligation to furnish a report to Lender under
clause (ii)(A) of this Section. Other than an application for a favorable
determination letter with respect to a Plan, there are no pending issues or
claims before the Internal Revenue Service, the United States Department of
Labor or any court of competent jurisdiction related to any Plan or Welfare Plan
under which Borrower, Guarantor or any ERISA Affiliate, directly or indirectly
(through an indemnification agreement or otherwise), could be subject to any
material risk of liability under Section 409 or 502(i) of ERISA or Section 4975
of the Code. No Welfare Plan provides or will provide benefits, including,
without limitation, death or medical benefits (whether or not insured) with
respect to any current or former employee of Borrower, Guarantor or any ERISA
Affiliate beyond his or her retirement or other termination of service other
than (A) coverage mandated by applicable law, (B) death or disability benefits
that have been fully provided for by fully paid up insurance or (C) severance
benefits.

conditions specified below with respect to any Plan, Welfare Plan or
Multiemployer Plan has occurred or exists, an Officer’s Certificate setting
forth details respecting such event or condition and the action, if any, that
Borrower or its ERISA Affiliate proposes to take with respect thereto (and a
copy of any report or notice required to be filed with or given to PBGC (or any
other relevant Governmental Authority)) by Borrower or an ERISA Affiliate with
respect to such event or condition, if such report or notice is required to be
filed with the PBGC or any other relevant Governmental Authority:
(A) any
reportable event, as defined in Section 4043 of ERISA and the regulations issued
thereunder, with respect to a Plan, as to which PBGC has not by regulation
waived the requirement of Section 4043(a) of ERISA that it be notified within
thirty (30) days of the occurrence of such event (provided that a failure to
meet the minimum funding standard of Section 412 of the Code and of Section 302
of ERISA, including, without limitation, the failure to make on or before its
due date a required installment under Section 412(m) of the Code and of Section
302(e) of ERISA, shall be a reportable event regardless of the issuance of any
waivers in accordance with Section 412(d) of the Code), and any request for a
waiver under Section 412(d) of the Code for any Plan;
(B) the
distribution under Section 4041 of ERISA of a notice of intent to terminate any
Plan or any action taken by Borrower or an ERISA Affiliate to terminate any
Plan;

institution by PBGC of proceedings under Section 4042 of ERISA for the
termination of, or the appointment of a trustee to administer, any Plan, or the
receipt by Borrower or any ERISA Affiliate of a notice from a Multiemployer Plan
that such action has been taken by PBGC with respect to such Multiemployer
Plan;
(D) the
complete or partial withdrawal from a Multiemployer Plan by Borrower or any
ERISA Affiliate that results in liability under Section 4201 or 4204 of ERISA
(including the obligation to satisfy secondary liability as a result of a
purchaser default) or the receipt by Borrower or any ERISA Affiliate of notice
from a Multiemployer Plan that it is in reorganization or insolvency pursuant to
Section 4241 or 4245 of ERISA or that it intends to terminate or has terminated
under Section 4041A of ERISA;
(E) the
institution of a proceeding by a fiduciary of any Multiemployer Plan against
Borrower or any ERISA Affiliate to enforce Section 515 of ERISA, which
proceeding is not dismissed within thirty (30) days;
(F) the
adoption of an amendment to any Plan that, pursuant to Section 401(a)(29) of the
Code or Section 307 of ERISA, would result in the loss of tax-exempt status of
the trust of which such Plan is a part if Borrower or an ERISA Affiliate fails
to timely provide security to the Plan in accordance with the provisions of said
Sections; or
(G) the
imposition of a lien or a security interest in connection with a
Plan.
(iii) Borrower
shall not knowingly engage in or permit any transaction in connection with which
Borrower, Guarantor or any ERISA Affiliate could be subject to either a civil
penalty or tax assessed pursuant to Section 502(i) or 502(l) of ERISA or Section
4975 of the Code, permit any Welfare Plan to provide benefits, including without
limitation, medical benefits (whether or not insured), with respect to any
current or former employee of Borrower, Guarantor or any ERISA Affiliate beyond
his or her retirement or other termination of service other than

that have been fully provided for by paid up insurance or otherwise or (C)
severance benefits, permit the assets of Borrower or Guarantor to become “plan
assets”, whether by operation of law or under regulations promulgated under
ERISA or adopt, amend (except as may be required by applicable law) or increase
the amount of any benefit or amount payable under, or permit any ERISA Affiliate
to adopt, amend (except as may be required by applicable law) or increase the
amount of any benefit or amount payable under, any employee benefit plan
(including, without limitation, any employee welfare benefit plan) or other
plan, policy or arrangement, except for normal increases in the ordinary course
of business consistent with past practice that, in the aggregate, do not result
in a material increase in benefits expense to Borrower, Guarantor or any ERISA
Affiliate.
-31-
(u) Labor
Matters. No

execute, acknowledge and deliver all and every such further acts, deeds,
conveyances, mortgages, deeds of trust or deeds to secure debt, as applicable,
assignments, notices of assignments, transfers and assurances as Lender or
Trustee shall, from time to time, reasonably require for the better assuring,

exercise such power of attorney unless and until Borrower fails to take the
required action within five (5) Business Days of demand unless the failure to so
exercise it could, in Lender’s reasonable judgment, result in a Material Adverse
Effect. Upon receipt of an affidavit of an officer of Lender as to the loss,
theft, destruction or mutilation of the Note or any other Loan Document which is
not of public record, and, in the case of any such mutilation, upon surrender
and cancellation of such Note or other applicable Loan Document, Borrower will

and all federal, state, county and municipal taxes, duties, imposts, assessments
and charges imposed on, or arising out of or in connection with the execution,
delivery and recording of this Security Instrument, any mortgage, deed of trust
or deed to secure debt, as applicable, supplemental hereto, any security

indemnify Lender, and its successors and assigns, against any liability incurred
as a result of the imposition of any tax on the making and recording of this
Security Instrument.
Section
2.05. Representations and
Warranties as to the Property.
Borrower represents and warrants with respect to the Property as
follows:
(a) Lien Priority and
Perfection. This
Security Instrument is a valid and enforceable (and, upon recordation in the
Official Records, will be a perfected) first lien on the Property, free and
clear of all encumbrances, security interests, and liens having priority over
the lien and security interest of this Security Instrument, except for the items
set forth as exceptions to or subordinate matters in the title insurance policy
insuring the lien of this Security Instrument, none of which, individually or in
the aggregate, materially interfere with the benefits of the security intended
to be provided by this Security Instrument, materially affect the value or
insurability of the Property, impair the use or operation of the Property for
the use currently being made thereof or impair Borrower’s ability to pay its
obligations in a timely manner (such items being the “Permitted
Encumbrances”).
-33-
(b) Title.
Borrower has, subject only to the Permitted Encumbrances, good, insurable and
marketable fee simple title to the Premises, Improvements and Fixtures
(collectively, the “Realty”) and to
all easements and rights benefiting the Realty and has the right, power and
authority to mortgage, encumber, give, grant, bargain, sell, alien, enfeoff,
convey, confirm, pledge, assign, and hypothecate the Property. Subject to
Permitted Encumbrances, Borrower will preserve its interest in and title to the
Property and will forever warrant and defend the same to Lender against any and
all claims made by, through or under Borrower and will forever warrant and
defend the validity and priority of the lien and security interest created
herein against the claims of all Persons whomsoever claiming by, through or
under Borrower. The foregoing warranty of title shall survive the foreclosure of
this Security Instrument and shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by
Lender in the event Lender acquires title to the Property pursuant to any
foreclosure. In addition, there are no outstanding options or rights of first
refusal to purchase the Property or Borrower’s ownership
thereof.
(c) Taxes and
Impositions. Other
than those being contested in accordance herewith, all taxes and other
Impositions and governmental assessments due and owing and not delinquent in
respect of, and affecting, the Property have been paid. Other than those being
contested in accordance herewith, Borrower has paid all Impositions which
constitute special governmental assessments in full, except for those
assessments which are permitted by applicable Legal Requirements to be paid in
installments, in which case all installments which are due and payable have been
paid in full. There are no pending, or to Borrower’s best knowledge, proposed
special or other assessments for public improvements or otherwise affecting the
Property, nor are there any contemplated improvements to the Property that may
result in such special or other assessments.
(d) Casualty; Flood
Zone. Except
as set forth in the Engineering Report and Environmental Report, the Realty is
in good repair and free and clear of any damage, destruction or casualty
(whether or not covered by insurance) that would materially affect the value of
the Realty or the use for which the Realty was intended, there exists no
structural or other material defects or damages in or to the Property and
Borrower has not received any written notice from any insurance company or
bonding company of any material defect or inadequacies in the Property, or any
part thereof, which would materially and adversely affect the insurability of
the same or cause the imposition of extraordinary premiums or charges thereon or
of any termination or threatened termination of any policy of insurance or bond.
No portion of the Premises is located in an “area of special flood hazard,” as
that term is defined in the regulations of the Federal Insurance Administration,
Department of Housing and Urban Development, under the National Flood Insurance
Act of 1968, as amended (24 CFR § 1909.1) or Borrower has obtained the
flood insurance required by Section 3.01(a)(vi) hereof. The Premises either does
not lie in a 100 year flood plain that has been identified by the Secretary of
Housing and Urban Development or any other Governmental Authority or, if it
does, Borrower has obtained the flood insurance required by Section 3.01(a)(vi)
hereof.
-34-
(e) Completion;
Encroachment. All
Improvements necessary for the efficient use and operation of the Premises,
including, without limitation, all Improvements which were included for purposes
of determining the appraised value of the Property in the Appraisal, have been
completed and none of said Improvements lie outside the boundaries and building
restriction lines of the Premises. Except as set forth in the title insurance
policy insuring the lien of this Security Instrument, no improvements on
adjoining properties encroach upon the Premises.
(f) Separate
Lot. The
Premises are taxed separately without regard to any other real estate and
constitute a legally subdivided lot under all applicable Legal Requirements (or,
if not subdivided, no subdivision or platting of the Premises is required under
applicable Legal Requirements), and for all purposes may be mortgaged,
encumbered, conveyed or otherwise dealt with as an independent parcel. Except as
previously disclosed in writing to Lender, the Property does not benefit from
any tax abatement or exemption.
(g) Use. To the
best of Borrower’s knowledge, the existence of all Improvements, the present use
and operation thereof and the access of the Premises and the Improvements to all
of the utilities and other items referred to in paragraph (k) below are in
compliance in all material respects with all Leases affecting the Property and
all applicable Legal Requirements, including, without limitation, Environmental
Statutes, Development Laws and Use Requirements. Borrower has not received any
notice from any Governmental Authority alleging any uncured violation relating
to the Property of any applicable Legal Requirements.
(h) Licenses and
Permits.
Borrower currently holds and will continue to hold all certificates of
occupancy, licenses, registrations, permits, consents, franchises and approvals
of any Governmental Authority or any other Person which are material for the
lawful occupancy and operation of the Realty or which are material to the
ownership or operation of the Property or the conduct of Borrower’s business.
All such certificates of occupancy, licenses, registrations, permits, consents,
franchises and approvals are current and in full force and effect.
(i) Environmental
Matters.
Borrower has received and reviewed the Environmental Report and has no reason to
believe that the Environmental Report contains any untrue statement of a
material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary to make the statements
contained therein or herein, in light of the circumstances under which such
statements were made, not misleading.
(j) Property
Proceedings. Other
than as previously disclosed in writing by Borrower to Lender, there are no
actions, suits or proceedings pending or, to Borrower’s knowledge, threatened in
any court or before any Governmental Authority or arbitration board or tribunal
(i) relating to (A) the zoning of the Premises or any part thereof,
(B) any certificates of occupancy, licenses, registrations, permits,
consents or approvals issued with respect to the Property or any part thereof,
(C) the condemnation of the Property or any part thereof, or (D) the
condemnation or relocation of any roadways abutting the Premises required for
access or the denial or limitation of access to the Premises or any part thereof
from any point of access to the Premises, (ii) asserting that (A) any
such zoning, certificates of occupancy, licenses, registrations, permits,
consents and/or approvals do not permit the operation of any material portion of
the Realty as presently being conducted, (B) any material improvements
located on the Property or any part thereof cannot be located thereon or
operated with their intended use or (C) the operation of the Property or
any part thereof is in violation in any material respect of any Environmental
Statutes, Development Laws or other Legal Requirements or Space Leases or
Property Agreements or (iii) which might (A) affect the validity or priority of
any Loan Document or (B) have a Material Adverse Effect.
-35-
(k) Utilities. The
Premises has rights of access to water, gas and/or electrical supply, storm and
sanitary sewerage facilities, other required public utilities (with respect to
each of the aforementioned items, by means of either a direct connection to the
source of such utilities or through connections available on publicly dedicated
roadways directly abutting the Premises or through permanent insurable easements
benefiting the Premises), fire and police protection, parking, and means of
direct access between the Premises and public highways over recognized curb cuts
(or such access to public highways is through private roadways which may be used
for ingress and egress pursuant to permanent insurable easements).
(l) Construction
Lien. The
Property is free and clear of any mechanics’ liens or liens in the nature
thereof, and no rights are outstanding that under law could give rise to any
such liens, any of which liens are or may be prior to, or equal with, the lien
of this Security Instrument, except those which are insured against by the title
insurance policy insuring the lien of this Security Instrument. No stop notices
have been served with respect to any work, labor or materials furnished to or
for the benefit of the Property or any portion thereof, and no disputes
currently exist with respect to any of such matters.
(m) Title
Insurance. Lender
has received a lenders’ commitment to issue a title insurance policy insuring
this Security Instrument as a first lien on the Realty subject only to Permitted
Encumbrances.

extension and renewal options; the base rent and percentage rent payable; all
additional rent and pass through obligations; and the security deposit held
thereunder and the location of such deposit
(ii) Each
Space Lease constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of Borrower and,
to the knowledge of Borrower, is enforceable against the tenant thereof. Except
as set forth on the Rent Roll or in any

(A) under any Major Space Lease or (B) under any other Space Leases which would,
in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.
-36-
(iii) Except as
disclosed to Lender and to Borrower's knowledge no tenant under any Space Lease
has, as of the date hereof, paid Rent more than thirty (30) days in advance, and
the Rents under such Space Leases have not been waived, released, or otherwise
discharged or compromised.
(iv) Except as
set forth on the Rent Roll or previously disclosed in writing to Lender, all
material work to be performed by Borrower under the Space Leases has been

premises under its Lease to the extent required under the terms of its Lease and
each such tenant is open and conducting business with the public in the demised
premises.
(vii) Borrower
has delivered to Lender a true, correct and complete copies of all Space Leases
described in the Rent Roll.
(viii) Each
Space Lease is in full force and effect and (except as disclosed on the Rent

modified, supplemented or amended in any way.
(ix) Except as
set forth on the Rent Roll, each tenant under each Space Lease is free from
bankruptcy, reorganization or arrangement proceedings or a general assignment
for the benefit of creditors.
(x) No Space
Lease provides any party with the right to obtain a lien or encumbrance upon the
Property superior to the lien of this Security Instrument or to subject to the
Property to any mechanics lien.
(p) Property
Agreements.
(i) Borrower
has delivered to Lender true, correct and complete copies of all Property
Agreements.
-37-
(ii) No
Property Agreement provides any party with the right to obtain a lien or
encumbrance upon the Property superior to the lien of this Security
Instrument.
(iii) To the
best of Borrower’s knowledge, no default exists or with the passing of time or
the giving of notice or both would exist under any Property Agreement which
would, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse
Effect.
(iv) Borrower
has not received or given any written communication which alleges that a default
exists or, with the giving of notice or the lapse of time, or both, would exist

Agreement or which gives any Person a right to purchase, or right of first
refusal with respect to, the Property.
(vi) To the
best knowledge of Borrower, no offset or any right of offset exists respecting
continued contributions to be made by any party to any Property Agreement except
as expressly set forth therein. Except as previously disclosed to Lender in
writing, no material exclusions or restrictions on the utilization, leasing or
improvement of the Property (including non-compete agreements) exists in any
Property Agreement.
(vii) All
“pre-opening” requirements contained in all Property Agreements (including, but
not limited to, all off-site and on-site construction requirements), if any,
have been fulfilled, and, to the best of Borrower’s knowledge, no condition now

its obligations thereunder.
(viii) Except as
previously disclosed in writing to Lender, all work, if any, to be performed by
Borrower under each of the Property Agreements has been substantially performed,
all contributions to be made by Borrower to any party to such Property

clear of any liens or security interests, except for liens and security
interests created under the Loan Documents, liens and security interests
otherwise disclosed to Lender in writing and disclosed in the title insurance
policy insuring the lien of this Security Instrument, and liens and security
interests which describe the equipment and other personal property owned by
tenants.

in compliance with all Legal Requirements relating to such security deposits as
to which failure to comply might, individually or in the aggregate, have a
Material Adverse Effect.
(t) Appraisal.
Borrower has no knowledge that any of the facts or assumptions on which the
Appraisal was based are false or incomplete in any material respect and has no
information that would reasonably suggest that the fair market value determined
in the Appraisal does not reflect the actual fair market value of the
Property.
(u) Representations
Generally. No
representation, warranty or statement of fact made by or on behalf of Borrower
in this Security Instrument or in any certificate, document or schedule
furnished to Lender pursuant hereto, contains any untrue statement of a material
fact or omits to state any material fact necessary to make statements contained
therein or herein not misleading (which may be to Borrower’s best knowledge
where so provided herein). There are no facts presently known to Borrower which
have not been disclosed to Lender which would, individually or in the aggregate,
have a Material Adverse Effect nor as far as Borrower can foresee might,
individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

Borrower, Lender may, but shall not be obligated to, pay any such lien, and
Borrower shall, within ten (10) Business Days after Lender’s demand therefor,
reimburse Lender for all sums so expended, together with interest thereon at the

Debt. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed a consent or request of Lender,
express or implied, by inference or otherwise, to the performance of any
alteration, repair or other work by any contractor, subcontractor or laborer or
the furnishing of any materials by any materialmen in connection
therewith.
(c) Notwithstanding
the foregoing, Borrower may contest any lien (other than a lien relating to

officers, or directors, (ii) Borrower shall preclude the collection of, or other

interest in the Property, (iii) neither the Property nor any part thereof nor
interest therein, shall be in any danger of being sold, forfeited or lost by
reason of such contest by Borrower, (iv) such contest by Borrower shall not

Security Instrument, (vii) Borrower has not consented to such lien, (viii)
Borrower has given Lender prompt notice of the filing of such lien and, upon
request by Lender from time to time, notice of the status of such contest by
Borrower and/or confirmation of the continuing satisfaction of the conditions
set forth in this Section 2.06(c), (ix) Borrower shall promptly pay the
obligation secured by such lien upon a final determination of Borrower’s

security acceptable to Lender equal to 125% of the contested amount pursuant to
collateral arrangements reasonably satisfactory to Lender.

Section
2.07. Cost of Defending and
Upholding this Security Instrument Lien. If any
action or proceeding is commenced to which Lender or Trustee is made a party
relating to the Loan Documents and/or the Property or Lender’s or Trustee’s
interest therein or in which it becomes necessary to defend or uphold the lien
of this Security Instrument or any other Loan Document, Borrower shall, on
demand, reimburse Lender and/or Trustee, as applicable, for all expenses
(including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements)
incurred by Lender and/or Trustee, as applicable, in connection therewith, and
such sum, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from and after such
demand until fully paid, shall constitute a part of the Debt.
Section
2.08. Use of the
Property.
Borrower will use, or cause to be used, the Property for such use as is
permitted pursuant to applicable Legal Requirements including, without
limitation, under the certificate of occupancy applicable to the Property, and
which is required by the Loan Documents. Borrower shall not suffer or permit the
Property or any portion thereof to be used by the public, any tenant, or any
Person not subject to a Lease, in a manner as is reasonably likely to impair
Borrower’s title to the Property, or in such manner as may give rise to a claim
or claims of adverse usage or adverse possession by the public, or of implied
dedication of the Property or any part thereof.
Section
2.09. Financial
Reports.
(a)
Borrower
will keep and maintain or will cause to be kept and maintained on a Fiscal Year
basis, in accordance with GAAP (or such other accounting basis reasonably
acceptable to Lender) consistently applied, proper and accurate books, tax
returns, records and accounts reflecting (i) all of the financial affairs
of Borrower and (ii) all items of income and expense in connection with the
operation of the Property or in connection with any services, equipment or
furnishings provided in connection with the operation thereof, whether such
income or expense may be realized by Borrower or by any other Person whatsoever,
excepting lessees unrelated to and unaffiliated with Borrower who have leased
from Borrower portions of the Premises for the purpose of occupying the same.
Lender shall have the right from time to time at all times during normal
business hours upon reasonable advance notice to examine such books, tax
returns, records and accounts at the office of Borrower or other Person
maintaining such books, tax returns, records and accounts and to make such
copies or extracts thereof as Lender shall desire. During the continuance of an
Event of Default, Borrower shall pay any costs and expenses incurred by Lender
to examine Borrower’s and Guarantor’s accounting records with respect to the
Property, as Lender shall determine to be necessary or appropriate in the
protection of Lender’s interest.

(A) all of the financial affairs of Borrower and (B) the operation of the
Property for such Fiscal Year or fiscal quarters, as applicable, and containing

Securitization of the Loan or after the occurrence of an Event of Default, such
annual financial statements shall be audited by an Independent certified public
accountant that is reasonably acceptable to Lender in accordance with GAAP.
Together with the financial statements required to be furnished pursuant to this
Section 2.09(b), Borrower shall furnish to Lender (A) an Officer’s Certificate

acceptable to Lender) consistently applied, and (2) whether, to the best of
such officer’s knowledge, there exists a Default under the Note or any other
Loan Document executed and delivered by Borrower, and if such event or
circumstance exists, the nature thereof, the period of time it has existed and

together with the financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 2.09(b)(ii)
above, a statement showing (1) Pro-Forma Net Operating Income at the end of the
most recent fiscal quarter (subject to verification by Lender in its reasonable
discretion) and (2) the calculation of Debt Service Coverage.

not covered by insurance), (iii) the sales per square foot for each lessee under
the Space Leases to the extent such information is required to be delivered by
such lessees and (iv) an occupancy report for the Property.
(d) Borrower
will furnish Lender monthly, within twenty (20) days following the end of each
month, with a certification of Manager stating that all Operating Expenses with
respect to the Property which had accrued as of the last day of the month
preceding the delivery of the cash flow statement referred to in clause (c)
above have been fully paid or otherwise reserved for by Manager (any such
certification or any certification furnished by a Manager pursuant to clause (c)
above, a “Manager
Certification”).
-41-
(e) Borrower
will furnish Lender annually, within twenty (20) days following the end of each
year and within twenty (20) days following receipt of such request therefor,
with a true, complete and correct rent roll for the Property, including a list
of which tenants are in default under their respective Leases, dated as of the
date of Lender’s request, identifying each tenant, the monthly rent and
additional rent, if any, payable by such tenant, the expiration date of such
tenant’s Lease, the security deposit, if any, held by Borrower under the Lease,
the space covered by the Lease, each tenant that has filed a bankruptcy,
insolvency, or reorganization proceeding since delivery of the last such rent
roll, the sales per square foot of each tenant, to the extent reported by
tenants under the terms of the Leases and the arrearages for such tenant, if
any, and such rent roll shall be accompanied by an Officer’s Certificate, dated
as of the date of the delivery of such rent roll, certifying that such rent roll
is true, correct and complete in all material respects as of its
date.
(f) Borrower
shall furnish to Lender, within thirty (30) days after Lender’s request
therefor, with such further detailed information with respect to the operation
of the Property and the financial affairs of Borrower as may be reasonably
requested by Lender.
(g) Borrower
shall cause Manager to furnish to Lender, within twenty (20) days following the
end of each month, a schedule of tenant security deposits showing any activity
in the Security Deposit Account for such month, together with a certification of
Manager as to the balance in such Security Deposit Account and that such tenant
security deposits are being held in accordance with all Legal
Requirements.
(h) Borrower
will furnish Lender annually, within ninety (90) days after the end of each
Fiscal Year, with a report setting forth (i) the Net Operating Income for such
Fiscal Year, (ii) the average occupancy rate of the Property during such
Fiscal Year, and (iii) the capital repairs, replacements and improvements
performed at the Property during such Fiscal Year and the aggregate Recurring
Replacement Expenditures made in connection therewith.

respective tax return, a copy of such tax return and either a copy of the tax
return of Guarantor within such thirty (30) day period or within ninety (90)
days after the end of each Fiscal Year, a certificate from an Independent
certified public accountant indicating the net worth of the
Guarantor.
(j) Borrower
shall submit to Lender for Lender’s written approval an Annual Budget not later
than sixty (60) days prior to the commencement of each Fiscal Year or, with
respect to the Fiscal Year in which the Closing Date occurs, within sixty (60)
days of the Closing Date, in form satisfactory to Lender setting forth in
reasonable detail budgeted monthly operating income and monthly operating
capital and other expenses for the Property. Each Annual Budget shall contain,
among other things, limitations on management fees, third party service fees,
and other expenses as Borrower may reasonably determine. Lender shall have the
right to approve such Annual Budget which approval shall not be unreasonably
withheld, and in the event that Lender objects to the proposed Annual Budget
submitted by Borrower, Lender shall advise Borrower of such objections within
ten (10) Business Days after receipt thereof (and deliver to Borrower a
reasonably detailed description of such objections) and Borrower shall, within
four (4) Business Days after receipt of notice of any such objections, revise
such Annual Budget and resubmit the same to Lender. Lender shall advise Borrower
of any objections to such revised Annual Budget within seven (7) Business Days
after receipt thereof (and deliver to Borrower a reasonably detailed description
of such objections) and Borrower shall revise the same in accordance with the
process described herein until Lender approves an Annual Budget, provided,
however, that if Lender shall not advise Borrower of its objections to any
proposed Annual Budget within the applicable time period set forth in this
Section, then such proposed Annual Budget shall be deemed approved by Lender.
Until such time that Lender approves a proposed Annual Budget, the most recently
Approved Annual Budget shall apply; provided that, such Approved Annual Budget
shall be adjusted to reflect actual increases in Basic Carrying Costs and
utilities expenses. In the event that Borrower must incur an Extraordinary
Expense, then Borrower shall promptly deliver to Lender a reasonably detailed
explanation of such proposed Extraordinary Expense for Lender’s approval, which
approval may be granted or denied in Lender’s reasonable discretion; provided,
however, so long as no O&M Operative Period is then in existence, no
approval from Lender shall be required if (i) a single Extraordinary Expense is
equal to or less than five percent (5%) of the amount set forth in the Approved
Annual Budget for expenses related to such Extraordinary Expense, or (ii) if no
sum was budgeted for such expense in the Approved Annual Budget, the
Extraordinary Expense is less than or equal to five percent (5%) of the Approved
Annual Budget, provided that all Extraordinary Expenses in any Fiscal Year do
not exceed five percent (5%) of the Approved Annual Budget.
-42-
(k) In the
event that Borrower fails to deliver any of the financial statements, reports or
other information required to be delivered to Lender pursuant to this Section
2.09 on or prior to their due dates, if any such failure shall continue for
fifteen (15) days following notice thereof from Lender, without waiving any
default arising out of such failure, Borrower shall pay to Lender on each
Payment Date for each month or portion thereof that any such financial
statement, report or other information remains undelivered, an administrative
fee in the amount of Two Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($2,500) and (ii) if
Borrower has not delivered any such reports within five (5) Business Days of
Lender’s giving an additional notice to Borrower requesting the missing
financial statement, report or other information, an O&M Operative Period
shall be deemed to have commenced. Borrower agrees that such administrative fee
(i) is a fair and reasonable fee necessary to compensate Lender for its
additional administrative costs and increased costs relating to Borrower’s
failure to deliver the aforementioned statements, reports or other items as and
when required hereunder and (ii) is not a penalty.
Section
2.10. Litigation.
Borrower will give prompt written notice to Lender of any litigation or
governmental proceedings pending or threatened (in writing) against Borrower
which might have a Material Adverse Effect.
Section
2.11. Updates of
Representations.
Borrower shall deliver to Lender within ten (10) Business Days of the request of
Lender an Officer’s Certificate updating all of the representations and
warranties contained in this Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents
and certifying that all of the representations and warranties contained in this
Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents, as updated pursuant to such
Officer’s Certificate, are true, accurate and complete as of the date of such
Officer’s Certificate or shall set forth the exceptions to representations
and/or warranties in reasonable detail, as applicable, and, upon Lender’s
request for further information with respect to such exceptions, shall provide
Lender such additional information as Lender may reasonably request.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, provided that no Event of Default has occurred
and is continuing, Borrower shall not be required to deliver the foregoing
Officer’s Certificate more than two (2) times in any Loan Year.

ARTICLE
III: INSURANCE
AND CASUALTY RESTORATION
Section
3.01. Insurance
Coverage.
Borrower shall, at its expense, maintain the following insurance coverages with
respect to the Property during the term of this Security
Instrument:
(a) (i) Insurance
against loss or damage by fire, casualty and other hazards included in an
“all-risk” coverage endorsement or its equivalent, with such endorsements as
Lender may from time to time reasonably require and which are customarily
required by Institutional Lenders of similar properties similarly situated,
including, without limitation, if the Property constitutes a legal
non-conforming use, an ordinance of law coverage endorsement which contains
“Demolition Cost”, “Loss Due to Operation of Law” and “Increased Cost of
Construction” coverages, covering the Property in an amount not less than the
greater of (A) 100% of the insurable replacement value of the Property
(exclusive of the Premises and footings and foundations) and (B) such other
amount as is necessary to prevent any reduction in such policy by reason of and
to prevent Borrower, Lender or any other insured thereunder from being deemed to
be a co-insurer. Not less frequently than once every three (3) years, Borrower,
at its option, shall either (A) have the Appraisal updated or obtain a new
appraisal of the Property, (B) have a valuation of the Property made by or for
its insurance carrier conducted by an appraiser experienced in valuing
properties of similar type to that of the Property which are in the geographical
area in which the Property is located or (C) provide such other evidence as
will, in Lender’s sole judgment, enable Lender to determine whether there shall
have been an increase in the insurable value of the Property and Borrower shall
deliver such updated Appraisal, new appraisal, insurance valuation or other
evidence acceptable to Lender, as the case may be, and, if such updated
Appraisal, new appraisal, insurance valuation, or other evidence acceptable to
Lender reflects an increase in the insurable value of the Property, the amount
of insurance required hereunder shall be increased accordingly and Borrower
shall deliver evidence satisfactory to Lender that such policy has been so
increased.
(ii) Commercial
general liability insurance against claims for personal and bodily injury and/or
death to one or more persons or property damage, occurring on, in or about the
Property (including the adjoining streets, sidewalks and passageways therein) in
such amounts as Lender may from time to time reasonably require (but in no event
shall Lender’s requirements be increased more frequently than once during each
twelve (12) month period) and which are customarily required by Institutional
Lenders for similar properties similarly situated, but not less than $1,000,000
per occurrence and $2,000,000 general aggregate on a per location basis and, in
addition thereto, not less than $25,000,000 excess and/or umbrella liability
insurance shall be maintained for any and all claims.
-44-
(iii) Business
interruption, rent loss or other similar insurance (A) with loss payable to
Lender, (B) covering all risks required to be covered by the insurance provided
for in Section 3.01(a)(i) hereof and (C) in an amount not less than 90% of the
projected fixed or base rent plus percentage rent for the succeeding eighteen
(18) month period based on an occupancy rate of 100%. Such insurance coverage
shall provide a six (6) month extended period of indemnity. The amount of such
insurance shall be determined upon the execution of this Security Instrument,
and not more frequently than once each calendar year thereafter based on
Borrower’s reasonable estimate of projected fixed or base rent plus percentage
rent, from the Property for the next succeeding eighteen (18) months. In the
event the Property shall be damaged or destroyed, Borrower shall and hereby does
assign to Lender all payment of claims under the policies of such insurance, and
all amounts payable thereunder, and all net amounts, shall be collected by
Lender under such policies and shall be applied in accordance with this Security
Instrument; provided, however, that nothing herein contained shall be deemed to
relieve Borrower of its obligations to timely pay all amounts due under the Loan
Documents.
(iv) Intentionally
Deleted.
(v) Insurance
against loss or damages from (A) leakage of sprinkler systems and (B) explosion
of steam boilers, air conditioning equipment, pressure vessels or similar
apparatus now or hereafter installed at the Property, in such amounts as Lender
may from time to time reasonably require and which are then customarily required
by Institutional Lenders of similar properties similarly situated.
(vi) Flood
insurance in an amount equal to the full insurable value of the Property or the
maximum amount available, whichever is less, if the Improvements are located in
an area designated by the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development as being
“an area of special flood hazard” under the National Flood Insurance Program
(i.e., having
a one percent or greater chance of flooding), and if flood insurance is
available under the National Flood Insurance Act.
(vii) Worker’s
compensation insurance or other similar insurance which may be required by
Governmental Authorities or Legal Requirements.
(viii) Intentionally
Deleted.
(ix) Insurance
against damage resulting from acts of terrorism, or an insurance policy without
an exclusion for damages resulting from terrorism, on terms consistent with the
commercial property insurance policy required under subsections (i), (ii) and
(iii) above.
(x) Such
other insurance as may from time to time be required by Lender and which is then
customarily required by Institutional Lenders for similar properties similarly
situated, against other insurable hazards, including, but not limited to,
malicious mischief, vandalism, mold, spores or fungus, sinkhole and mine
subsidence, acts of terrorism, windstorm and/or earthquake, due regard to be
given to the size and type of the Premises, Improvements, Fixtures and Equipment
and their location, construction and use. Additionally, Borrower shall carry
such insurance coverage as Lender may from time to time require if the failure
to carry such insurance may result in a downgrade, qualification or withdrawal
of any class of securities issued in connection with a Securitization or, if the
Loan is not yet part of a Securitization, would result in an increase in the
subordination levels of any class of securities anticipated to be issued in
connection with a proposed Securitization.
-45-
(b) Borrower
shall cause any Manager of the Property to maintain fidelity insurance in an
amount equal to $5,000,000 or such lesser amount as Lender shall
approve.
Section
3.02. Policy
Terms. (a)
All
insurance required by this Article III shall be in the form (other than with
respect to Sections 3.01(a)(vi) and (vii) above when insurance in those two
sub-sections is placed with a governmental agency or instrumentality on such
agency’s forms) and amount and with deductibles as, from time to time, shall be
reasonably acceptable to Lender, under valid and enforceable policies issued by
financially responsible insurers authorized to do business in the State where
the Property is located, with a general policyholder’s service rating of not
less than A- and a financial rating of not less than X as rated in the most
currently available Best’s Insurance Reports (or the equivalent, if such rating
system shall hereafter be altered or replaced) and shall have a claims paying
ability rating and/or financial strength rating, as applicable, of not less than
“AA” (or its equivalent), or such lower claims paying ability rating and/or
financial strength rating, as applicable, as Lender shall, in its sole and
absolute discretion, consent to, from a Rating Agency (one of which after a
Securitization in which Standard & Poor’s rates any securities issued in
connection with such Securitization, shall be Standard & Poor’s). Originals
or certified copies of all insurance policies shall be delivered to and held by
Lender. All such policies (except policies for worker’s compensation) shall name
Lender, its successors and/or assigns as an additional named insured, shall
provide for loss payable to Lender, its successors and/or assigns and shall
contain (or have attached): (i) standard “non-contributory mortgagee”
endorsement or its equivalent relating, inter alia, to
recovery by Lender notwithstanding the negligent or willful acts or omissions of
Borrower; (ii) a waiver of subrogation endorsement as to Lender; (iii) an
endorsement indicating that neither Lender nor Borrower shall be or be deemed to
be a co-insurer with respect to any casualty risk insured by such policies and
shall provide for a deductible per loss of an amount not more than the lesser of
(x) that which is customarily maintained by owners of similar properties
similarly situated and (y) five percent (5%) of the Adjusted Net Cash Flow, and
(iv) a provision that such policies shall not be canceled, terminated, denied
renewal or amended, including, without limitation, any amendment reducing the
scope or limits of coverage, without at least thirty (30) days’ prior written
notice to Lender in each instance. Not less than thirty (30) days prior to the
expiration dates of the insurance policies obtained pursuant to this Security
Instrument, originals or certified copies of renewals of such policies (or
certificates evidencing such renewals) bearing notations evidencing the payment
of premiums or accompanied by other reasonable evidence of such payment (which
premiums shall not be paid by Borrower through or by any financing arrangement
which would entitle an insurer to terminate a policy) shall be delivered by
Borrower to Lender. Borrower shall not carry separate insurance, concurrent in
kind or form or contributing in the event of loss, with any insurance required
under this Article III.
-46-
(b) If
Borrower fails to maintain and deliver to Lender the original policies or
certificates of insurance required by this Security Instrument, or if there are
insufficient funds in the Basic Carrying Costs Escrow Account to pay the
premiums for same, Lender may, at its option, procure such insurance, and
Borrower shall pay, or as the case may be, reimburse Lender for, all premiums
thereon promptly, upon demand by Lender, with interest thereon at the Default
Rate from the date paid by Lender to the date of repayment and such sum shall
constitute a part of the Debt.
(c) Borrower
shall notify Lender of the renewal premium of each insurance policy and Lender
shall be entitled to pay such amount on behalf of Borrower from the Basic
Carrying Costs Escrow Account. With respect to insurance policies which require
periodic payments (i.e., monthly or quarterly) of premiums, Lender shall be
entitled to pay such amounts fifteen (15) days (or such lesser number of days as
Lender shall determine) prior to the respective due dates of such
installments.
(d) The
insurance required by this Security Instrument may, at the option of Borrower,
be effected by blanket and/or umbrella policies issued to Borrower covering the
Property provided that, in each case, the policies otherwise comply with the
provisions of this Security Instrument and allocate to the Property, from time
to time (but in no event less than once a year), the coverage specified by this
Security Instrument, without possibility of reduction or coinsurance by reason
of, or damage to, any other property (real or personal) named therein. If the
insurance required by this Security Instrument shall be effected by any such
blanket or umbrella policies, Borrower shall furnish to Lender (i) original
policies or certified copies thereof, or an original certificate of insurance
together with reasonable access to the original of such policy to review such
policy’s coverage of the Property, with schedules attached thereto showing the
amount of the insurance provided under such policies applicable to the Property
and (ii) an Officer’s Certificate setting forth (A) the number of properties
covered by such policy, (B) the location by city (if available, otherwise,
county) and state of the properties, (C) the average square footage of the
properties, (D) a brief description of the typical construction type included in
the blanket policy and (E) such other information as Lender may reasonably
request.
Section
3.03. Assignment of
Policies. (a)
Borrower
hereby assigns to Lender the proceeds of all insurance (other than worker’s
compensation and liability insurance) obtained pursuant to this Security
Instrument, all of which proceeds shall be payable to Lender as collateral and
further security for the payment of the Debt and the performance of the
Borrowers’ obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, and
Borrower hereby authorizes and directs the issuer of any such insurance to make
payment of such proceeds directly to Lender. Except as otherwise expressly
provided in Section 3.04 or elsewhere in this Article III, Lender shall have the
option, in its discretion, and without regard to the adequacy of its security,
to apply all or any part of the proceeds it may receive pursuant to this Article
in such manner as Lender may elect to any one or more of the following: (i) the
payment of the Debt, whether or not then due, in any proportion or priority as
Lender, in its discretion, may elect, (ii) the repair or restoration of the
Property, (iii) the cure of any Event of Default or (iv) the reimbursement of
the costs and expenses of Lender incurred pursuant to the terms hereof in
connection with the recovery of the Insurance Proceeds. Nothing herein contained
shall be deemed to excuse Borrower from repairing or maintaining the Property as
provided in this Security Instrument or restoring all damage or destruction to
the Property, regardless of the sufficiency of the Insurance Proceeds, and the
application or release by Lender of any Insurance Proceeds shall not cure or
waive any Default or notice of Default.
-47-
(b) In the
event of the foreclosure of this Security Instrument or any other transfer of
title or assignment of all or any part of the Property in extinguishment, in
whole or in part, of the Debt, all right, title and interest of Borrower in and
to all policies of insurance required by this Security Instrument shall inure to
the benefit of the successor in interest to Borrower or the purchaser of the
Property to the extent that such policies are assignable or transferable. If,
prior to the receipt by Lender of any proceeds, the Property or any portion
thereof shall have been sold on foreclosure of this Security Instrument or by
deed in lieu thereof or otherwise, or any claim under such insurance policy
arising during the term of this Security Instrument is not paid until after the
extinguishment of the Debt, and Lender shall not have received the entire amount
of the Debt outstanding at the time of such extinguishment, whether or not a
deficiency judgment on this Security Instrument shall have been sought or
recovered or denied, then, the proceeds of any such insurance to the extent of
the amount of the Debt not so received, shall be paid to and be the property of
Lender, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate, and the reasonable
attorney’s fees, costs and disbursements incurred by Lender in connection with
the collection of the proceeds which shall be paid to Lender and Borrower hereby
assigns, transfers and sets over to Lender all of Borrower’s right, title and
interest in and to such proceeds. Notwithstanding any provisions of this
Security Instrument to the contrary, Lender shall not be deemed to be a trustee
or other fiduciary with respect to its receipt of any such proceeds, which may
be commingled with any other monies of Lender; provided, however, that Lender
shall use such proceeds for the purposes and in the manner permitted by this
Security Instrument. Any proceeds deposited with Lender shall be held by Lender
in an interest-bearing account, but Lender makes no representation or warranty
as to the rate or amount of interest, if any, which may accrue on such deposit
and shall have no liability in connection therewith. Interest accrued, if any,
on the proceeds shall be deemed to constitute a part of the proceeds for
purposes of this Security Instrument. The provisions of this Section 3.03(b)
shall survive the termination of this Security Instrument by foreclosure, deed
in lieu thereof or otherwise as a consequence of the exercise of the rights and
remedies of Lender hereunder after a Default.
Section
3.04. Casualty
Restoration. (a)
(i) In the
event of any damage to or destruction of the Property, Borrower shall give
prompt written notice to Lender (which notice shall set forth Borrower’s good
faith estimate of the cost of repairing or restoring such damage or destruction,
or if Borrower cannot reasonably estimate the anticipated cost of restoration,
Borrower shall nonetheless give Lender prompt notice of the occurrence of such
damage or destruction, and will diligently proceed to obtain estimates to enable
Borrower to quantify the anticipated cost and time required for such
restoration, whereupon Borrower shall promptly notify Lender of such good faith
estimate) and, provided that restoration does not violate any Legal
Requirements, Borrower shall promptly commence and diligently prosecute to
completion the repair, restoration or rebuilding of the Property so damaged or
destroyed to a condition such that the Property shall be at least equal in value
to that immediately prior to the damage to the extent practicable, in full
compliance with all Legal Requirements and the provisions of all Leases, and in
accordance with Section 3.04(b) below. Such repair, restoration or rebuilding of
the Property are sometimes hereinafter collectively referred to as the
“Work”.
-48-
(ii) Notwithstanding
the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.04, upon the occurrence of any damage
to or destruction of the Property, provided that such damage or destruction is
not a Substantial Casualty, if in Lender’s reasonable judgment the cost of
repair of or restoration to the Property required as a result of any damage or
destruction is less than $1,000,000 in the aggregate and the Work can be
completed in less than one hundred eighty (180) days (but in no event beyond the
date which is six (6) months prior to the Maturity Date), then Lender, shall
permit Borrower to apply for and receive the Insurance Proceeds directly from
the insurer (and Lender shall advise the insurer to pay over such Insurance
Proceeds directly to Borrower), to the extent required to pay for any such Work,
with any excess thereof to be retained by Borrower.
(iii) Subject
to Section 3.04(a)(iv), Lender shall apply any Insurance Proceeds which it may
receive towards the Work in accordance with Section 3.04(b) and the other
applicable sections of this Article III.
(iv) If (A) an
Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing, (B) Lender is not
reasonably satisfied that the Debt Service Coverage, after substantial
completion of the Work, will be at least equal to the Required Debt Service
Coverage, (C) more than thirty percent (30%) of the reasonably estimated fair
market value of the Property is damaged or destroyed, (D) Lender is not
reasonably satisfied that the Work can be completed six (6) months prior to
Maturity or (E) Lender is not reasonably satisfied that Leases covering at least
75% of the rentable square footage for the applicable Property (immediately
prior to such damage or destruction) will not be terminated due to the casualty
during and following the restoration, or (F) Lender is not reasonably satisfied
that the Work can be completed within twelve (12) months of the damage to or
destruction of the Property (each, a “Substantial
Casualty”),
Lender shall have the option, in its sole discretion to apply any Insurance
Proceeds it may receive pursuant to this Security Instrument (less any
reasonable cost to Lender of recovering and paying out such proceeds incurred
pursuant to the terms hereof and not otherwise reimbursed to Lender, including,
without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) to the payment of
the Debt, without any prepayment fee or charge of any kind, or to allow such
proceeds to be used for the Work pursuant to the terms and subject to the
conditions of Section 3.04(b) hereof and the other applicable sections of this
Article III.
(v) In the
event that Lender elects or is obligated hereunder to allow Insurance Proceeds
to be used for the Work, any excess proceeds remaining after completion of such
Work shall be applied to the payment of the Debt without any prepayment fee or
charge of any kind.
-49-
(b) If any
Condemnation Proceeds in accordance with Section 6.01(a), or any Insurance
Proceeds in accordance with Section 3.04(a), are to be applied to the repair,
restoration or rebuilding of the Property, then such proceeds shall be deposited
into a segregated interest-bearing bank account at the Bank, which shall be an
Eligible Account, held by Lender and shall be paid out from time to time to
Borrower as the Work progresses (less any reasonable cost to Lender of
recovering and paying out such proceeds, including, without limitation,
reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs allocable to inspecting the Work and the
plans and specifications therefor), subject to Section 5.13 hereof and to all of
the following conditions:
(i) An
Independent architect or engineer selected by Borrower and reasonably acceptable
to Lender (an “Architect” or
“Engineer”) or a
Person otherwise reasonably acceptable to Lender, shall have delivered to Lender
a certificate estimating the cost of completing the Work, and, if the amount set
forth therein is more than the sum of the amount of Insurance Proceeds then
being held by Lender in connection with a casualty and amounts agreed to be paid
as part of a final settlement under the insurance policy upon or before
completion of the Work, Borrower shall have delivered to Lender (A) cash
collateral in an amount equal to such excess, or (B) an unconditional,
irrevocable, clean sight draft letter of credit, in form, substance and issued
by a bank reasonably acceptable to Lender, in the amount of such excess and
draws on such letter of credit shall be made by Lender to make payments pursuant
to this Article III following exhaustion of the Insurance Proceeds therefor or
(C) a completion bond in form, substance and issued by a surety company
reasonably acceptable to Lender.
(ii) If the
cost of the Work is reasonably estimated by an Architect or Engineer in a
certification reasonably acceptable to Lender to be equal to or exceed five
percent (5%) of the Loan Amount for the Property, such Work shall be performed
under the supervision of an Architect or Engineer, it being understood that the
plans and specifications with respect thereto shall provide for Work so that,
upon completion thereof, the Property shall be at least equal in replacement
value and general utility to the Property prior to the damage or
destruction.
(iii) Each
request for payment shall be made on not less than ten (10) days’ prior notice
to Lender and shall be accompanied by a certificate of an Architect or Engineer,
or, if the Work is not required to be supervised by an Architect or Engineer, by
an Officer’s Certificate stating (A) that payment is for Work completed or
materials delivered in compliance with the plans and specifications, if required
under clause (ii) above, (B) that the sum requested is required to reimburse
Borrower for payments by Borrower to date, or is due to the contractors,
subcontractors, materialmen, laborers, engineers, architects or other Persons
rendering services or materials for the Work (giving a brief description of such
services and materials), and that when added to all sums previously paid out by
Lender does not exceed the value of the Work done to the date of such
certificate, (C) if the sum requested is to cover payment relating to repair and
restoration of personal property required or relating to the Property, that
title to the personal property items covered by the request for payment is
vested in Borrower (unless Borrower is lessee of such personal property), and
(D) that the Insurance Proceeds and other amounts deposited by Borrower held by
Lender after such payment is equal to or more than the estimated remaining cost
to complete such Work; provided, however, that if such certificate is given by
an Architect or Engineer, such Architect or Engineer shall certify as to clause
(A) above, and such Officer’s Certificate shall certify as to the remaining
clauses above, and provided, further, that Lender shall not be obligated to
disburse such funds if Lender determines, in Lender’s reasonable discretion,
that Borrower shall not be in compliance with this Section 3.04(b).
Additionally, each request for payment shall contain a statement signed by
Borrower stating that the requested payment is for Work satisfactorily done to
date or for materials for the Work.
-50-
(iv) Each
request for payment shall be accompanied by waivers of lien, in customary form
and substance, covering that part of the Work for which payment or reimbursement
is being requested and, if required by Lender, a search prepared by a title
company or licensed abstractor, or by other evidence satisfactory to Lender that
there has not been filed with respect to the Property any mechanic’s or other
lien or instrument for retention of title relating to any part of the Work not
discharged of record. Additionally, as to any personal property covered by the
request for payment, Lender shall be furnished with evidence of having incurred
a payment obligation therefor and such further evidence reasonably satisfactory
to assure Lender that UCC filings therefor provide a valid first lien on the
personal property.
(v) Lender
shall have the right to inspect the Work at all reasonable times upon reasonable
prior notice and may condition any disbursement of Insurance Proceeds upon
satisfactory compliance by Borrower with the provisions hereof. Neither the
approval by Lender of any required plans and specifications for the Work nor the
inspection by Lender of the Work shall make Lender responsible for the
preparation of such plans and specifications, or the compliance of such plans
and specifications of the Work, with any applicable law, regulation, ordinance,
covenant or agreement.
(vi) Insurance
Proceeds shall not be disbursed more frequently than once every thirty (30)
days.
(vii) Until
such time as the Work has been substantially completed, Lender shall not be
obligated to disburse up to ten percent (10%) of the cost of the Work (the
“Retention
Amount”) to
Borrower. Upon substantial completion of the Work, Borrower shall send notice
thereof to Lender and, subject to the conditions of Section 3.04(b)(i)-(iv),
Lender shall disburse one-half of the Retention Amount to Borrower; provided,
however, that the remaining one-half of the Retention Amount shall be disbursed
to Borrower when Lender shall have received copies of any and all final
certificates of occupancy or other certificates, licenses and permits required
for the ownership, occupancy and operation of the Property in accordance with
all Legal Requirements. Borrower hereby covenants to diligently seek to obtain
any such certificates, licenses and permits. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Lender will release the portion of the Retention Amount being held with respect
to any contractor, subcontractor or materialman engaged in the Work as of the
date upon which the Architect or Engineer certifies to Lender that the
contractor, subcontractor or materialman has satisfactorily completed all work
and has supplied all materials in accordance with the provisions of the
contractor’s, subcontractor’s or materialman’s contract, provided, (A) the
contractor, subcontractor or materialman delivers the lien waivers and evidence
of payment in full of all sums due to the contractor, subcontractor or
materialman as may be reasonably requested by Lender or by the title company
issuing the Lender’s title policy and (B) if required by Lender, the release of
any such portion of the Retention Amount shall be approved by the surety
company, if any, which has issued a payment or performance bond with respect to
the contractor, subcontractor or materialman.
-51-
(viii) Upon
failure on the part of Borrower promptly to commence the Work as provided for
herein or to proceed diligently and continuously to completion of the Work,
subject to Force Majeure, not to exceed sixty (60) days, which failure shall
continue after notice for thirty (30) days, Lender may apply any Insurance
Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds it then or thereafter holds to the payment of
the Debt in accordance with the provisions of the Note; provided, however, that
Lender shall be entitled to apply at any time all or any portion of the
Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds it then holds to the extent
necessary to cure any Event of Default.
(c) If
Borrower (i) within ninety (90) days after the occurrence of any damage to the
Property or any portion thereof (or such shorter period as may be required under
any Major Space Lease) shall fail to submit to Lender for approval plans and
specifications for the Work (approved by the Architect and by all Governmental
Authorities whose approval is required), (ii) after any such plans and
specifications are approved by all Governmental Authorities, the Architect and
Lender, shall fail to promptly commence such Work as provided for herein or
(iii) shall fail to diligently prosecute such Work to completion, then, in
addition to all other rights available hereunder, at law or in equity, Lender,
or any receiver of the Property or any portion thereof, upon five (5) days’
prior notice to Borrower (except in the event of emergency in which case no
notice shall be required), may (but shall have no obligation to) perform or
cause to be performed such Work, and may take such other steps as it reasonably
deems advisable. Borrower hereby waives, for Borrower, any claim, other than for
gross negligence or willful misconduct, against Lender and any receiver arising
out of any act or omission of Lender or such receiver pursuant hereto, and
Lender may apply all or any portion of the Insurance Proceeds (without the need
to fulfill any other requirements of this Section 3.04) to reimburse Lender and
such receiver, for all reasonable costs not reimbursed to Lender or such
receiver upon demand together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the
date such amounts are advanced until the same are paid to Lender or the
receiver.
(d) Subject
to Section 3.04(a)(ii) above, Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Lender as its
attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest, to collect and receive any Insurance
Proceeds paid with respect to any portion of the Property or the insurance
policies required to be maintained hereunder, and to endorse any checks, drafts
or other instruments representing any Insurance Proceeds whether payable by
reason of loss thereunder or otherwise.
Section
3.05. Compliance with Insurance
Requirements.
Borrower promptly shall comply with, and shall cause the Property to comply
with, all Insurance Requirements, even if such compliance requires structural
changes or improvements or would result in interference with the use or
enjoyment of the Property or any portion thereof provided Borrower shall have a
right to contest in good faith and with diligence such Insurance Requirements
provided (a) no Event of Default shall be continuing during such contest and
such contest shall not subject the Property or any portion thereof to any lien
or affect the priority of the lien of this Security Instrument, (b) failure to
comply with such Insurance Requirements will not subject Lender or any of its
agents, employees, officers or directors to any civil or criminal liability, (c)
such contest will not cause any reduction in insurance coverage, (d) such
contest shall not affect the ownership, use or occupancy of the Property, (e)
the Property or any part thereof or any interest therein shall not be in any
danger of being sold, forfeited or lost by reason of such contest by Borrower,
(f) Borrower has given Lender prompt notice of such contest and, upon request by
Lender from time to time, notice of the status of such contest by Borrower
and/or information of the continuing satisfaction of the conditions set forth in
clauses (a) through (e) of this Section 3.05, (g) upon a final determination of
such contest, Borrower shall promptly comply with the requirements thereof, and
(h) prior to and during such contest, Borrower shall furnish to Lender security
satisfactory to Lender, in its reasonable discretion, against loss or injury by
reason of such contest or the non-compliance with such Insurance Requirement
(and if such security is cash, Lender shall deposit the same in an
interest-bearing account and interest accrued thereon, if any, shall be deemed
to constitute a part of such security for purposes of this Security Instrument,
but Lender (i) makes no representation or warranty as to the rate or amount of
interest, if any, which may accrue thereon and shall have no liability in
connection therewith and (ii) shall not be deemed to be a trustee or fiduciary
with respect to its receipt of any such security and any such security may be
commingled with other monies of Lender). Upon completion of any contest, Lender
shall return the security , if any, deposited with Lender pursuant to clause (h)
of this Section 3.05. If Borrower shall use the Property or any portion thereof
in any manner which could permit the insurer to cancel any insurance required to
be provided hereunder, Borrower immediately shall obtain a substitute policy
which shall satisfy the requirements of this Security Instrument and which shall
be effective on or prior to the date on which any such other insurance policy
shall be canceled. Borrower shall not by any action or omission invalidate any
insurance policy required to be carried hereunder unless such policy is replaced
as aforesaid, or materially increase the premiums on any such policy above the
normal premium charged for such policy. Borrower shall cooperate with Lender in
obtaining for Lender the benefits of any Insurance Proceeds lawfully or
equitably payable to Lender in connection with the transaction contemplated
hereby.
-52-
Section
3.06. Event of Default During
Restoration.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Security Instrument
including, without limitation, the provisions of this Article III, if, at the
time of any casualty affecting the Property or any part thereof, or at any time
during any Work, or at any time that Lender is holding or is entitled to receive
any Insurance Proceeds pursuant to this Security Instrument, a Default exists
and is continuing (whether or not it constitutes an Event of Default), Lender
shall then have no obligation to make such proceeds available for Work and
Lender shall have the right and option, to be exercised in its sole and absolute
discretion and election, with respect to the Insurance Proceeds, either to
retain and apply such proceeds in reimbursement for the actual costs, fees and
expenses incurred by Lender in accordance with the terms hereof in connection
with the adjustment of the loss and any balance toward payment of the Debt in
such priority and proportions as Lender, in its sole discretion, shall deem
proper, or towards the Work, upon such terms and conditions as Lender shall
determine, or to cure such Default, or to any one or more of the foregoing as
Lender, in its sole and absolute discretion, may determine. If Lender shall
receive and retain such Insurance Proceeds, the lien of this Security Instrument
shall be reduced only by the amount thereof received, after reimbursement to
Lender of expenses of collection, and actually applied by Lender in reduction of
the principal sum payable under the Note in accordance with the
Note.
Section
3.07. Application of Proceeds to
Debt Reduction.
(a) No
damage to the Property, or any part thereof, by fire or other casualty
whatsoever, whether such damage be partial or total, shall relieve Borrower from
its liability to pay in full the Debt and to perform its obligations under this
Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents.
(b) If any
Insurance Proceeds are applied to reduce the Debt, Lender shall apply the same
in accordance with the provisions of the Note.

ARTICLE
IV: IMPOSITIONS
Section
4.01. Payment of Impositions,
Utilities and Taxes, etc. (a)
Borrower
shall pay or cause to be paid all Impositions prior to the date upon which any
fine, penalty, interest or cost for nonpayment is imposed, and furnish to
Lender, upon request, receipted bills of the appropriate taxing authority or
other documentation reasonably satisfactory to Lender evidencing the payment
thereof. If Borrower shall fail to pay any Imposition in accordance with this
Section and is not contesting or causing a contesting of such Imposition in
accordance with Section 4.04 hereof, or if there are insufficient funds in the
Basic Carrying Costs Escrow Account to pay any Imposition, Lender shall have the
right, but shall not be obligated, to pay that Imposition, and Borrower shall
repay to Lender, on demand, any amount paid by Lender, with interest thereon at
the Default Rate from the date of the advance thereof to the date of repayment,
and such amount shall constitute a portion of the Debt secured by this Security
Instrument.
(b) Borrower
shall, prior to the date upon which any fine, penalty, interest or cost for the
nonpayment is imposed, pay or cause to be paid all charges for electricity,
power, gas, water and other services and utilities in connection with the
Property, and shall, upon request, deliver to Lender receipts or other
documentation reasonably satisfactory to Lender evidencing payment thereof. If
Borrower shall fail to pay any amount required to be paid by Borrower pursuant
to this Section 4.01 and is not contesting such charges in accordance with
Section 4.04 hereof, Lender shall have the right, but shall not be obligated, to
pay that amount, and Borrower will repay to Lender, on demand, any amount paid
by Lender with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date of the advance
thereof to the date of repayment, and such amount shall constitute a portion of
the Debt secured by this Security Instrument.
(c) Borrower
shall pay all taxes, charges, filing, registration and recording fees, excises
and levies imposed upon Lender by reason of or in connection with its ownership
of any Loan Document or any other instrument related thereto, or resulting from
the execution, delivery and recording of, or the lien created by, or the
obligation evidenced by, any of them, other than income, franchise and other
similar taxes imposed on Lender and shall pay all corporate stamp taxes, if any,
and other taxes, required to be paid on the Loan Documents. If Borrower shall
fail to make any such payment within ten (10) days after written notice thereof
from Lender, Lender shall have the right, but shall not be obligated, to pay the
amount due, and Borrower shall reimburse Lender therefor, on demand, with
interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date of the advance thereof to the
date of repayment, and such amount shall constitute a portion of the Debt
secured by this Security Instrument.
Section
4.02. Deduction from
Value. In the
event of the passage after the date of this Security Instrument of any Legal
Requirement deducting from the value of the Property for the purpose of
taxation, any lien thereon or changing in any way the Legal Requirements now in
force for the taxation of this Security Instrument and/or the Debt for federal,
state or local purposes, or the manner of the operation of any such taxes so as
to adversely affect the interest of Lender, or impose any tax or other charge on
any Loan Document, then Borrower will pay such tax, with interest and penalties
thereon, if any, within the statutory period; provided, however, such tax
payments shall not include such taxes incurred more than ninety (90) days prior
to the date Borrower receives Lender’s notice of payment. In the event the
payment of such tax or interest and penalties by Borrower would be unlawful, or
taxable to Lender or unenforceable or provide the basis for a defense of usury,
then in any such event, Lender shall have the option, by written notice of not
less than ninety (90) days, to declare the Debt immediately due and payable,
with no prepayment fee or charge of any kind.
-54-
Section
4.03. No Joint
Assessment.
Borrower shall not consent to or initiate the joint assessment of the Premises
or the Improvements (a) with any other real property constituting a separate tax
lot and Borrower represents and covenants that the Premises and the Improvements
are and shall remain a separate tax lot or (b) with any portion of the Property
which may be deemed to constitute personal property, or any other procedure
whereby the lien of any taxes which may be levied against such personal property
shall be assessed or levied or charged to the Property as a single
lien.
Section
4.04. Right to
Contest.
Borrower shall have the right, after prior notice to Lender, at its sole
expense, to contest by appropriate legal proceedings diligently conducted in
good faith, without cost or expense to Lender or any of its agents, employees,
officers or directors, the validity, amount or application of any Imposition or
any charge described in Section 4.01(b), provided that (a) no Default or Event
of Default shall exist during such proceedings and such contest shall not
(unless Borrower shall comply with clause (d) of this Section 4.04) subject the
Property or any portion thereof to any lien or affect the priority of the lien
of this Security Instrument, (b) failure to pay such Imposition or charge will
not subject Lender, Trustee or any of their agents, employees, officers or
directors to any civil or criminal liability, (c) the contest suspends
enforcement of the Imposition or charge (unless Borrower first pays the
Imposition or charge), (d) prior to and during such contest, Borrower shall
furnish to Lender security satisfactory to Lender, in its reasonable discretion,
against loss or injury by reason of such contest or the non-payment of such
Imposition or charge (and if such security is cash, Lender may deposit the same
in an interest-bearing account and interest accrued thereon, if any, shall be
deemed to constitute a part of such security for purposes of this Security
Instrument, but Lender (i) makes no representation or warranty as to the rate or
amount of interest, if any, which may accrue thereon and shall have no liability
in connection therewith and (ii) shall not be deemed to be a trustee or
fiduciary with respect to its receipt of any such security and any such security
may be commingled with other monies of Lender), (e) such contest shall not
affect the ownership, use or occupancy of the Property, (f) the Property or any
part thereof or any interest therein shall not be in any danger of being sold,
forfeited or lost by reason of such contest by Borrower, (g) Borrower has given
Lender notice of the commencement of such contest and upon request by Lender,
from time to time, notice of the status of such contest by Borrower and/or
confirmation of the continuing satisfaction of clauses (a) through (f) of this
Section 4.04, and (h) upon a final determination of such contest, Borrower shall
promptly comply with the requirements thereof. Upon completion of any contest,
Borrower shall immediately pay the amount due, if any, and deliver to Lender
proof of the completion of the contest and payment of the amount due, if any,
following which Lender shall return the security, if any, deposited with Lender
pursuant to clause (d) of this Section 4.04. Borrower shall not pay any
Imposition in installments unless permitted by applicable Legal Requirements,
and shall, upon the request of Lender, deliver copies of all notices and bills
relating to any Imposition or other charge covered by this Article IV to
Lender.
Section
4.05. No Credits on Account of the
Debt.
Borrower will not claim or demand or be entitled to any credit or credits on
account of the Debt for any part of the Impositions assessed against the
Property or any part thereof and no deduction shall otherwise be made or claimed
from the taxable value of the Property, or any part thereof, by reason of this
Security Instrument or the Debt. In the event such claim, credit or deduction
shall be required by Legal Requirements, Lender shall have the option, by
written notice of not less than forty-five (45) days, to declare the Debt
immediately due and payable, and Borrower hereby agrees to pay such amounts not
later than forty-five (45) days after such notice.
-55-
Section
4.06. Documentary
Stamps. If, at
any time, the United States of America, any State or Commonwealth thereof or any
subdivision of any such State shall require revenue or other stamps to be
affixed to the Note, this Security Instrument or any other Loan Document, or
impose any other tax or charges on the same, Borrower will pay the same, with
interest and penalties thereon, if any.
ARTICLE
V: CENTRAL
CASH MANAGEMENT
Section
5.01. Cash Flow.
Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that (i) the Rents (which for the
purposes of this Section 5.01 shall not include security deposits from tenants
under Leases held by Borrower and not applied towards Rent) derived from the
Property and (ii) Loss Proceeds (other than Loss Proceeds that Lender has
elected to apply to reduce the Debt in accordance with the terms of Article III
hereof) shall be utilized (a) to fund the Basic Carrying Costs Sub-Account, (b)
to pay all amounts to become due and payable under the Note by funding the Debt
Service Payment Sub-Account, (c) to fund the Recurring Replacement Reserve
Sub-Account, (d) to fund the Reletting Reserve Sub-Account, (e) to fund the
Operation and Maintenance Expense Sub-Account and (e) to fund the Curtailment
Reserve Sub-Account, all to the extent provided for herein. Borrower shall
collect all security deposits from tenants under valid Leases, which shall be
held by Borrower, in accordance with applicable law and in a segregated demand
deposit bank account at such commercial or savings bank or banks as may be
reasonably satisfactory to Lender (the “Security Deposit
Account”).
Borrower shall notify Lender of any security deposits held as letters of credit
and, upon Lender’s request, such letters of credit shall be promptly delivered
to Lender. Borrower shall have no right to withdraw funds from the Security
Deposit Account; provided that,
prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, Borrower may withdraw funds from
the Security Deposit Account to refund or apply security deposits as required by
the Leases or by applicable Legal Requirements. During the continuance of an
Event of Default, all withdrawals from the Security Deposit Account must be
approved by Lender. Borrower has established a Rent Account at Wachovia Bank,
National Association (together with its successors and assigns, the "Rent
Account Bank"). Borrower
shall deposit (or cause the Manager to deposit) all Rent relating to tenants
under Space Leases to be deposited into the Rent Account at the bank in which
the Rent Account is located. Absent the then existence of a Sweep Period, the
Rent Account Bank shall transfer on a daily basis funds received into the Rent
Account to Borrower's operating account located at the Rent Account Bank (the
"Operating Account"). Borrower shall
not change the Rent Account or the Operating Account or the depository
institution holding the Rent Account or the Operating Account without obtaining
the prior written consent of Lender. Borrower hereby agrees that if the bank,
bank location or account number of the Rent Account or Operating Account is
changed prior to a Sweep Period, Borrower shall, within five (5) Business Days
after such change, execute a replacement Rent Account Agreement to cover the new
bank, bank location and/or account, which replacement Rent Account Agreement
shall be in a form acceptable to Lender. Upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of a Sweep Period, all funds in the Rent Account shall be
transferred on a daily basis by the Rent Account Bank through ACH or by Federal
wire to the Central Account prior to 2:00 p.m. (New York City Time) on each
Business Day. Borrower hereby acknowledges that Lender may deliver a notice to
Rent Account Bank that a Sweep Period has occurred and that all funds be
transferred on a daily basis from the Rent Account to the Central Account.
Alternatively,
at the election of the Lender, upon the occurrence and continuance of a Sweep
Period, Borrower shall cause all Rent relating to tenants under Space Leases
which is due and payable to Borrower to be paid through ACH, a check drawn on
account in a bank located in the continental United States, or by Federal wire
directly to the Central Account or the Rent Account, as determined by Lender.
Following the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, at the election
of Lender, Borrower shall, give each tenant under any Lease an irrevocable
direction in the form of Exhibit E attached hereto and made a part hereof to
deliver all rent payments made by tenants and other payments constituting Rent
directly to the Central Account or to the Rent Account, as determined by Lender,
or at the option of Lender, Lender shall deliver such letters to each tenant and
Borrower shall cooperate with Lender in effectuating the foregoing.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Rent is received by Borrower or Manager,
then (a) such amounts shall be held in trust for the benefit, and as the
property, of Lender, (b) such amounts shall not be commingled with any other
funds or property of Borrower or Manager and (c) Borrower or Manager shall
deposit such amounts in the Rent Account within two (2) Business Days of
receipt, or after the occurrence of a Sweep Period and at the election of
Lender, into the Central Account within two (2) Business Days of receipt. Lender
may elect to change the financial institution in which the Central Account or
the Rent Account shall be maintained; however, Lender
shall give Borrower and the bank in which the Rent Account is located not fewer
than ten (10) Business Days’ prior notice of such change. Neither Borrower nor
Manager shall change the bank in which the Rent Account is located or the Rent
Account without the prior written consent of Lender. All fees and charges of the
bank in which the Rent Account and the Central Account is located shall be paid
by Borrower.
-56-
Section
5.02. Establishment of
Accounts. Lender
has established the Escrow Accounts and the Central Account in the name of
Lender as secured party and Borrower has established the Central Account in the
joint names of Lender, as secured party, and Borrower. The Central Account, the
Rent Account and the Escrow Accounts shall be under the sole dominion and
control of Lender and funds held therein shall not constitute trust funds.
Borrower hereby irrevocably directs and authorizes Lender to withdraw funds from
the Central Account, the Rent Account and the Escrow Accounts, all in accordance
with the terms and conditions of this Security Instrument. Borrower shall have
no right of withdrawal in respect of the Central Account, the Rent Account or
the Escrow Accounts. Each transfer of funds to be made hereunder shall be made
only to the extent that funds are on deposit in the Central Account, the Rent
Account or the affected Sub-Account or Escrow Account, and Lender shall have no
responsibility to make additional funds available in the event that funds on
deposit are insufficient. The Central Account shall contain the Basic Carrying
Costs Sub-Account, the Debt Service Payment Sub-Account, the Recurring
Replacement Reserve Sub-Account, the Reletting Reserve Sub-Account, the
Operation and Maintenance Expense Sub-Account and the Curtailment Reserve
Sub-Account, each of which accounts shall be Eligible Accounts or book entry
sub-accounts of an Eligible Account (each a “Sub-Account” and
collectively, the “Sub-Accounts”) to
which certain funds shall be allocated and from which disbursements shall be
made pursuant to the terms of this Security Instrument.
-57-
Section
5.03. Permitted
Investments. All
sums deposited into the Curtailment Reserve Escrow Account, Recurring
Replacement Reserve Sub-Account, the Reletting Reserve Sub-Account and the
Operation and Maintenance Expense Escrow Account shall be held in an interest
bearing account but Borrower acknowledges that Lender makes no representation or
warranty as to the rate of return. Lender shall not have any liability for any
loss in investments of funds in the Curtailment Reserve Escrow Account,
Recurring Replacement Reserve Sub-Account and the Operation and Maintenance
Expense Escrow Account and no such loss shall affect Borrower’s obligation to
fund, or liability for funding, the Central Account and each Sub-Account and
Escrow Account, as the case may be. Borrower agrees that Lender shall include
all such earnings on the Curtailment Reserve Escrow Account, Recurring
Replacement Reserve Sub-Account, the Reletting Reserve Escrow Account and the
Operation and Maintenance Expense Escrow Account as income of Borrower (and, if
Borrower is a partnership, limited liability company or other pass-through
entity, the partners, members or beneficiaries of Borrower, as the case may be)
for federal and applicable state and local tax purposes. All interest paid or
other earnings on funds deposited into the Recurring Replacement Reserve
Sub-Account, the Reletting Reserve Escrow Account and the Operation and
Maintenance Expense Escrow Account made hereunder shall be deposited into the
Central Account and shall be allocated to the Curtailment Reserve Escrow
Account, Recurring Replacement Reserve Sub-Account, the Reletting Reserve Escrow
Account and the Operation and Maintenance Expense Escrow Account. Borrower shall
pay all costs, fees and expenses incurred in connection with the establishment
and maintenance of, or the disbursement from the Curtailment Reserve Escrow
Account, the Recurring Replacement Reserve Sub-Account, the Reletting Reserve
Escrow Account and the Operation and Maintenance Expense Escrow Account, which
sums shall be due and payable by Borrower upon demand and may be deducted by
Lender from amounts on deposit in the Central Account or the Escrow
Accounts.
Section
5.04. Servicing
Fees. At the
option of Lender, the Loan may be serviced by a servicer (the “Servicer”)
selected by Lender and Lender may delegate all or any portion of its
responsibilities under this Security Instrument to the Servicer. Provided that
no Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower shall have no obligation to
reimburse Lender for servicing fees incurred in connection with the ordinary,
routine servicing of the Loan; provided, however, that Borrower shall reimburse
Lender for (a) any and all costs and expenses incurred after the occurrence of a
Default and (b) as otherwise provided for in this Security Instrument.
Additionally, Borrower shall pay all reasonable servicing fees of Servicer, if
any, not to exceed $500.00 per month, charged in connection with any
disbursement of funds from the Escrow Accounts pursuant to the Servicer’s then
standard conditions and rates.
Section
5.05. Monthly Funding of
Sub-Accounts and Escrow Accounts. (a) On
or before each Payment Date during the term of the Loan, commencing on the first
(1st) Payment Date occurring after the month in which the Loan is initially
funded, Borrower shall pay or cause to be paid to Lender, the Basic Carrying
Costs Monthly Installment, the Required Debt Service Payment, the Recurring
Replacement Monthly Installment, the Reletting Reserve Monthly Installment and
any other sums due and payable under the Loan Documents. Commencing on the first
(1st) Payment Date occurring after the month in which a Sweep Period begins and
during the continuance of such Sweep Period, Borrower shall pay, or cause to be
paid to the Central Account, the Basic Carrying Costs Monthly Installment, the
Required Debt Service Payment, the Recurring Replacement Reserve Monthly
Installment, and all sums required to be deposited in the Operation and
Maintenance Expense Sub-Account and the Curtailment Reserve Sub-Account, if any,
pursuant to this Section 5.05(a) and all funds transferred or deposited into the
Central Account shall be allocated among the Sub-Accounts as follows and in the
following priority:
(i) first, to
the Basic Carrying Costs Sub-Account, until an amount equal to the Basic
Carrying Costs Monthly Installment for such Current Month has been allocated to
the Basic Carrying Costs Sub-Account;
-58-
(ii) second,
to the Debt Service Payment Sub-Account, until an amount equal to the Required
Debt Service Payment for the Payment Date occurring in such Current Month has
been allocated to the Debt Service Payment Sub-Account;
(iii) third, to
the Recurring Replacement Reserve Sub-Account, until an amount equal to the
Recurring Replacement Monthly Installment for such Current Month has been
allocated to the Recurring Replacement Reserve Sub-Account;
(iv) fourth,
to the Reletting Reserve Sub-Account, until an amount equal to the Reletting
Reserve Monthly Installment for such Current Month has been allocated to the
Reletting Reserve Sub-Account
(v) fifth,
but only during an O&M Operative Period, to the Operation and Maintenance
Expense Sub-Account in an amount equal to the Cash Expenses, other than
management fees payable to Affiliates of Borrower, for such Current Month
pursuant to the related Approved Annual Budget;
(vi) sixth,
but only during an O&M Operative Period, to the Operation and Maintenance
Expense Sub-Account in an amount equal to the amount, if any, of the Net Capital
Expenditures for such Current Month pursuant to the related Approved Annual
Budget;
(vii) seventh,
but only during an O&M Operative Period, to the Operation and Maintenance
Expense Sub-Account in an amount equal to the amount, if any, of the
Extraordinary Expenses approved by Lender for such Current Month;
(viii) eighth,
but only during an O&M Operative Period, the balance, if any, to the
Curtailment Reserve Sub-Account.
Provided
that (I) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (II) Lender has
received the Manager Certification referred to in Section 2.09(d) hereof for the
most recent period for which the same is due, Lender agrees that in each Current
Month any amounts deposited into or remaining in the Central Account after the
Sub-Accounts have been funded in accordance with of this Section 5.05(a) with
respect to the Current Month and any periods prior thereto, shall be disbursed
by Lender to Borrower on the Payment Date and, to the extent that funds are
available for such purpose, on the fifteenth and twenty-fifth day of each
Current Month or, if such days are not Business Days, on the next succeeding
Business Day in accordance with Borrower’s irrevocable written instruction
delivered to Lender on the Closing Date. During the existence of an Event of
Default, no funds held in the Central Account shall be distributed to Borrower
and Lender shall have the right to apply all or any portion of the funds held in
the Central Account or any Sub-Account or any Escrow Account to the Debt in
Lender’s sole discretion.
-59-
(b) On each
Payment Date, (i) sums held in the Basic Carrying Costs Sub-Account shall be
transferred to the Basic Carrying Costs Escrow Account, (ii) sums held in the
Debt Service Payment Sub-Account, together with any amounts deposited into the
Central Account that are either (x) Loss Proceeds that Lender has elected to
apply to reduce the Debt in accordance with the terms of Article III hereof or
(y) excess Loss Proceeds remaining after the completion of any restoration
required hereunder, shall be transferred to Lender to be applied towards the
Required Debt Service Payment, (iii) sums held in the Recurring Replacement
Reserve Sub-Account shall be transferred to the Recurring Replacement Reserve
Escrow Account, (iv) sums held in the Reletting Reserve Sub-Account shall be
transferred to the Reletting Reserve Escrow Account, (v) sums held in the
Operation and Maintenance Expense Sub-Account shall be transferred to the
Operation and Maintenance Expense Escrow Account; and (vi) sums held in the
Curtailment Reserve Sub-Account shall be transferred to the Curtailment Reserve
Escrow Account.
Section
5.06. Payment of Basic Carrying
Costs.
Borrower hereby agrees to pay all Basic Carrying Costs (without regard to the
amount of money in the Basic Carrying Costs Sub-Account or the Basic Carrying
Costs Escrow Account). At least ten (10) Business Days prior to the due date of
any Basic Carrying Costs, and not more frequently than once each month, Borrower
may notify Lender in writing and request that Lender pay such Basic Carrying
Costs on behalf of Borrower on or prior to the due date thereof, and, provided
that no Event of Default has occurred and that there are sufficient funds
available in the Basic Carrying Costs Escrow Account, Lender shall make such
payments out of the Basic Carrying Costs Escrow Account before same shall be
delinquent. Together with each such request, Borrower shall furnish Lender with
bills and all other documents necessary, as reasonably determined by Lender, for
the payment of the Basic Carrying Costs which are the subject of such request.
Borrower’s obligation to pay (or cause Lender to pay) Basic Carrying Costs
pursuant to this Security Instrument shall include, to the extent permitted by
applicable law, Impositions resulting from future changes in law which impose
upon Lender an obligation to pay any property taxes or other Impositions or
which otherwise adversely affect Lender’s interests as provided for in this
Security Instrument.
Provided
that no Event of Default shall have occurred, all funds deposited into the Basic

sums on deposit in the Basic Carrying Costs Sub-Account and the Basic Carrying
Costs Escrow Account may be applied by Lender in payment of any Basic Carrying
Costs or may be applied to the payment of the Debt or any other charges
affecting all or any portion of the Property as Lender in its sole discretion
may determine; provided,
however, that no
such application shall be deemed to have been made by operation of law or
otherwise until actually made by Lender as herein provided.

Section
5.07. Reletting Reserve Escrow
Account. (a)
Borrower hereby agrees to pay all Reletting Expenditures (without regard to the

respect to which Borrower is obligated to undertake or pay for any Reletting
Expenditures, Borrower shall submit to Lender (i) an itemized line item budget
(a “Budget”)
reasonably acceptable to Lender outlining all of the Reletting Expenditures,
(ii) a copy of the signed Lease for which said Reletting Expenditures relate, in
each case which has an expiration date at least three (3) years after the

this Security Instrument, (iii) a copy of the plans and specifications, if any,
for the proposed Reletting Expenditures and (iv) an Officer’s Certificate with
respect to the items referred to in clauses (i) through (iii) and setting forth
an anticipated completion date for the Reletting Expenditures. Thereafter,
provided that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and that Lender
has received a written request from Borrower for payment or reimbursement of any
costs incurred in connection with any Reletting Expenditures, together with (i)
unconditional lien waivers (subject only to payment), (ii) a statement from an
Architect or Engineer, indicating that such portion of the Reletting
Expenditures for which payment or reimbursement is sought has been substantially
completed in compliance with all Legal Requirements, (iii) unless Borrower
requests disbursement by means of check payable jointly to Borrower and the
applicable vendor, copies of bills for such Reletting Expenditures marked “paid
in full” (or such other documentation reasonably satisfactory to Lender to
establish the payment of the Reletting Expenditures) for the portion due and for
which payment or reimbursement is sought, (iv) upon final completion of such
Reletting Expenditures, tenant estoppel certificates from the tenant leasing
space in the Premises for whom the Reletting Expenditures are being made which
indicate, among other things, that the tenant under such Space Lease has been in
occupancy and open for business for at least one full calendar month and paid
all rents due under the Space Lease without abatement, suspension, deferment,
diminution, reduction or other allowances for at least one full calendar month,
and (v) such other documentation as may be reasonably requested by Lender to
establish that the Reletting Expenditures or portion thereof which are the
subject of such request have been completed, all of which are reasonably
acceptable in form and substance to Lender, Lender shall disburse to Borrower,
to the extent of funds remaining in the Reletting Reserve Escrow Account, any
actual expenses incurred in connection with such Reletting Expenditures which
were set forth in the approved Budget provided that Borrower may make a request
for disbursement of sums from the Reletting Reserve Escrow Account no more than
once during any month and any request (other than the final request) shall be in
a minimum amount of $5,000. With respect to any Reletting Expenditures which
relate to brokerage commissions, upon the receipt of (i) copies of bills for
such Reletting Expenditures marked “paid in full”, (ii) tenant estoppel
certificates from the tenant leasing space in the Premises for which Lease the
brokerage commissions are due which indicate, among other things, that the
tenant under such Space Lease has been in occupancy and open for business for at
least one full calendar month and paid all rents due under the Space Lease
without abatement, suspension, deferment, diminution, reduction or other
allowances for at least one full calendar month and (iii) a copy of the signed
Lease for which said Reletting Expenditures relate, in each case which has an
expiration date at least three (3) years, all of which are reasonably acceptable
to Lender, Lender shall disburse to Borrower any actual expenses incurred in
connection with such Reletting Expenditures out of the Reletting Reserve Escrow
Account. Lender shall not be required to make any disbursements out of the
Reletting Reserve Escrow Account if an Event of Default shall have occurred and
is continuing, if more than one such request is made in any month or if
sufficient funds are not available in the Reletting Reserve Escrow
Account.
-61-
(b) In
addition, Borrower shall pay to Lender for deposit with Lender all funds
received by Borrower in excess of $50,000 in connection with any cancellation,
termination or surrender of any Lease, including, but not limited to, any
surrender or cancellation fees, buyout fees, or reimbursements for tenant
improvements and leasing commissions ("Termination
Payments");
provided, as long as no Event of Default exists, when the applicable space is
re-leased pursuant to a Space Lease entered into in accordance with the terms of
this Security Instrument, any such Termination Payments on deposit with Lender
and remaining after payment of all tenant improvements and leasing commissions
in connection with such new Space Lease pursuant to 5.07(a) above shall be paid
to Borrower upon the occupancy and the payment of rents due under the new Space
Lease for at least one full calendar month.
(c) Provided
that no Event of Default shall have occurred, all funds deposited into the
Reletting Reserve Escrow Account relating to Reletting Expenditures shall be
held by Lender pursuant to the provisions of this Security Instrument and shall
be applied in payment of Reletting Expenditures. Should an Event of Default
occur, the sums on deposit in the Reletting Reserve Sub-Account and the
Reletting Reserve Escrow Account may be applied by Lender in payment of any
Reletting Expenditures or may be applied to the payment of the Debt or any other
charges affecting all or any portion of the Property, as Lender, in its sole
discretion, may determine; provided,
however, that no
such application shall be deemed to have been made by operation of law or
otherwise until actually made by Lender as herein provided.
(d) In the
event that Borrower holds any letters of credit as security for obligations
under Leases, within thirty (30) days (or if any letters of credit may expire
within such thirty (30) day period, prior to the expiration of such letter of
credit) of the occurrence of a monetary event of default or a material
non-monetary event of default under the related Lease, Borrower shall present
for draw and use all commercially reasonable efforts to draw the full amount
which it is entitled to draw under such letter of credit; provided, however,
Borrower shall not be obliged to draw on such letter of credit if (i) Borrower
has submitted to Lender a plan of action to resolve any event of default which
gave rise to Borrower’s right to draw on the applicable letter of credit and
Lender shall, in its reasonable discretion, have consented to such plan or
Borrower is precluded from making a draw on the applicable letter of credit by
applicable law, and (ii) the term of such letter of credit will not expire prior
to the implementation of such submitted plan. Borrower shall deliver to Lender
all security deposits which are applied against sums due to Borrower under
Leases (including, without limitation, all sums drawn on letters of credits held
as security for obligations of tenants under Leases) and Rent paid by or on
behalf of any lessee under a Space Lease in whole or partial consideration for
the termination, cancellation or surrender of any Space Lease including, without
limitation, surrender or cancellation fees, buy-out fees or reimbursements for
tenant improvements or leasing commissions, within five (5) Business Days of
receipt thereof and all such sums shall be held in the Reletting Reserve Escrow
Account and shall be disbursed therefrom as set forth above.

Section
5.08. Recurring Replacement
Reserve Escrow Account.
Borrower hereby agrees to pay all Recurring Replacement Expenditures with
respect to the Property (without regard to the amount of money then available in
the Recurring Replacement Reserve Sub-Account or the Recurring Replacement
Reserve Escrow Account). Provided that Lender has received written notice from
Borrower at least five (5) Business Days prior to the due date of any payment
relating to Recurring Replacement Expenditures and not more frequently than once
each month, and further provided that no Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, that there are sufficient funds available in the Recurring
Replacement Reserve Escrow Account and that Borrower shall have theretofore
furnished Lender with lien waivers, copies of bills, invoices and other
reasonable documentation as may be required by Lender to establish that the
Recurring Replacement Expenditures which are the subject of such request
represent amounts due for completed or partially completed capital work and
improvements performed at the Property, Lender shall make such payments out of
the Recurring Replacement Reserve Escrow Account.
Provided
that no Event of Default shall have occurred, all funds deposited into the
Recurring Replacement Reserve Escrow Account shall be held by Lender pursuant to
the provisions of this Security Instrument and shall be applied in payment of
Recurring Replacement Expenditures. Should an Event of Default occur, the sums
on deposit in the Recurring Replacement Reserve Sub-Account and the Recurring
Replacement Reserve Escrow Account may be applied by Lender in payment of any
Recurring Replacement Expenditures or may be applied to the payment of the Debt
or any other charges affecting all or any portion of the Property as Lender in
its sole discretion may determine; provided,
however, that no
such application shall be deemed to have been made by operation of law or
otherwise until actually made by Lender as herein provided.
Section
5.09. Operation and Maintenance
Expense Escrow Account.
Borrower hereby agrees to pay all Operating Expenses with respect to the
Property (without regard to the amount of money then available in the Operation
and Maintenance Expense Sub-Account or the Operation and Maintenance Expense
Escrow Account). All funds allocated to the Operation and Maintenance Expense
Escrow Account shall be held by Lender pursuant to the provisions of this
Security Instrument. Any sums held in the Operation and Maintenance Expense
Escrow Account shall be disbursed to Borrower within five (5) Business Days of
receipt by Lender from Borrower of (a) a written request for such disbursement
which shall indicate the Operating Expenses (exclusive of Basic Carrying Costs
and any management fees payable to Borrower or to Affiliates of Borrower) for
which the requested disbursement is to pay and (b) an Officer’s Certificate
stating that no Operating Expenses with respect to the Property are more than
sixty (60) days past due; provided,
however, in the
event that Borrower legitimately disputes any invoice for an Operating Expense,
and (i) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing hereunder, (ii)
Borrower shall have set aside adequate reserves for the payment of such disputed
sums together with all interest and late fees thereon, (iii) Borrower has
complied with all the requirements of this Security Instrument relating thereto,
and (iv) the contesting of such sums shall not constitute a default under any
other instrument, agreement, or document to which Borrower is a party, then
Borrower may, after certifying to Lender as to items (i) through (iv) hereof,
contest such invoice. Together with each such request, Borrower shall furnish
Lender with bills and all other documents necessary for the payment of the
Operating Expenses which are the subject of such request. Borrower may request a
disbursement from the Operation and Maintenance Expense Escrow Account no more
than one (1) time per calendar month. Should an Event of Default occur and be
continuing, the sums on deposit in the Operation and Maintenance Expense
Sub-Account or the Operation and Maintenance Expense Escrow Account may be
applied by Lender in payment of any Operating Expenses for the Property or may
be applied to the payment of the Debt or any other charges affecting all or any
portion of the Property as Lender, in its sole discretion, may determine;
provided,
however, that no
such application shall be deemed to have been made by operation of law or
otherwise until actually made by Lender as herein provided.

Deleted
Section
5.11. Curtailment Reserve Escrow
Account. Funds
deposited into the Curtailment Reserve Escrow Account during an O&M
Operative Period shall be held by Lender in the Curtailment Reserve Escrow
Account as additional security for the Loan until the Loan has been paid in
full. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, provided that no Event of
Default and no O&M Operative Period has occurred and is continuing, Lender
shall, upon written request from Borrower, disburse all sums contained in the
Curtailment Reserve Escrow Account to Borrower. Should an Event of Default
occur, the sums on deposit in the Curtailment Reserve Sub-Account and the
Curtailment Reserve Escrow Account may be applied by Lender to the payment of
the Debt or other charges affecting all or any portion of the Property, as
Lender, in its sole discretion, may determine; provided, however, that no such
application shall be deemed to have been made by operation of law or otherwise
until actually made by Lender as herein provided. Lender shall calculate the
Debt Service Coverage as of the end of each fiscal quarter. Such calculation
shall be completed within ten (10) Business Days of Lender’s receipt of the
quarterly financial statements required under Section 2.09(b) with respect to
such fiscal quarter.
Section
5.12. Intentionally
Omitted.
Section
5.13. Loss
Proceeds. In the
event of a casualty to the Property, unless Lender elects or is required
pursuant to Article III hereof to make all of the Insurance Proceeds available
to Borrower for restoration, Lender and Borrower shall cause all such Insurance
Proceeds to be paid by the insurer directly to the Central Account, whereupon
Lender shall, after deducting Lender’s reasonable costs of recovering and paying
out such Insurance Proceeds, including without limitation, reasonable attorneys’
fees, apply the same to reduce the Debt in accordance with the terms of the
Note; provided,
however, that if
Lender elects, or is deemed to have elected, or is required to make the
Insurance Proceeds available for restoration, all Insurance Proceeds in respect
of rent loss, business interruption or similar coverage shall be maintained in
the Central Account, to be applied by Lender in the manner as Rent received with
respect to the operation of the Property; provided,
further,
however, that in
the event that the Insurance Proceeds with respect to rent loss, business
interruption or similar insurance policy are paid in a lump sum in advance,
Lender shall hold such Insurance Proceeds in a segregated interest-bearing
escrow account, which shall be an Eligible Account, shall estimate, in Lender’s
reasonable discretion, the number of months required for Borrower to restore the
damage caused by the casualty, shall divide the aggregate rent loss, business
interruption or similar Insurance Proceeds by such number of months, and shall
disburse from such bank account into the Central Account each month during the
performance of such restoration such monthly installment of said Insurance
Proceeds. In the event that Insurance Proceeds are to be applied toward
restoration, Lender shall hold such funds in a segregated bank account at the
Bank, which shall be an Eligible Account, and shall disburse same in accordance
with the provisions of Section 3.04 hereof. Unless Lender elects, or is required
pursuant to Section 6.01 hereof to make all of the Condemnation Proceeds
available to Borrower for restoration, Lender and Borrower shall cause all such
Condemnation Proceeds to be paid to the Central Account, whereupon Lender shall,
after deducting Lender’s reasonable costs of recovering and paying out such
Condemnation Proceeds, including without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees,
apply same to reduce the Debt in accordance with the terms of the Note;
provided,
however, that
any Condemnation Proceeds received in connection with a temporary Taking shall
be maintained in the Central Account, to be applied by Lender in the same manner
as Rent received with respect to the operation of the Property; provided,
further,
however, that in
the event that the Condemnation Proceeds of any temporary Taking are paid in a
lump sum in advance, Lender shall hold such Condemnation Proceeds in a
segregated interest-bearing bank account, which shall be an Eligible Account,
shall estimate, in Lender’s reasonable discretion, the number of months that the
Property shall be affected by such temporary Taking, shall divide the aggregate
Condemnation Proceeds in connection with such temporary Taking by such number of
months, and shall disburse from such bank account into the Central Account each
month during the pendency of such temporary Taking such monthly installment of
said Condemnation Proceeds. In the event that Condemnation Proceeds are to be
applied toward restoration, Lender shall hold such funds in a segregated bank
account at the Bank, which shall be an Eligible Account, and shall disburse same
in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.04 hereof. If any Loss Proceeds
are received by Borrower, such Loss Proceeds shall be received in trust for
Lender, shall be segregated from other funds of Borrower, and shall be forthwith
paid into the Central Account, or paid to Lender to hold in a segregated bank
account at the Bank, in each case to be applied or disbursed in accordance with
the foregoing. Any Loss Proceeds made available to Borrower for restoration in
accordance herewith, to the extent not used by Borrower in connection with, or
to the extent they exceed the cost of, such restoration, shall be paid to
Borrower promptly following the completion of the Work.

ARTICLE
VI: CONDEMNATION
Section
6.01. Condemnation.
(a) Borrower
shall notify Lender promptly of the commencement or threat of any Taking of the
Property or any portion thereof. Lender is hereby irrevocably appointed as
Borrower’s attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest, with exclusive power to
collect, receive and retain the proceeds of any such Taking and to make any
compromise or settlement in connection with such proceedings (subject to
Borrower’s reasonable approval, except after the occurrence of an Event of
Default, in which event Borrower’s approval shall not be required), subject to
the provisions of this Security Instrument; provided, however, that Borrower may
participate in any such proceedings and shall be authorized and entitled to
compromise or settle any such proceeding with respect to Condemnation Proceeds
in an amount less than five percent (5%) of the Loan Amount. Borrower shall
execute and deliver to Lender any and all instruments reasonably required in
connection with any such proceeding promptly after request therefor by Lender.
Except as set forth above, Borrower shall not adjust, compromise, settle or
enter into any agreement with respect to such proceedings without the prior
consent of Lender. All Condemnation Proceeds are hereby assigned to and shall be
paid to Lender. With respect to Condemnation Proceeds in an amount in excess of
five percent (5%) of the Loan Amount, Borrower hereby authorizes Lender to
compromise, settle, collect and receive such Condemnation Proceeds, and to give
proper receipts and acquittance therefor. Subject to the provisions of this
Article VI, Lender may apply such Condemnation Proceeds (less any cost to Lender
of recovering and paying out such proceeds, including, without limitation,
reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements and costs allocable to inspecting
any repair, restoration or rebuilding work and the plans and specifications
therefor) toward the payment of the Debt or to allow such proceeds to be used
for the Work.
-65-
(b) “Substantial
Taking” shall
mean (i) a Taking of such portion of the Property that would, in Lender’s
reasonable discretion, leave remaining a balance of the Property which would not
under then current economic conditions, applicable Development Laws and other
applicable Legal Requirements, permit the restoration of the Property so as to
constitute a complete, rentable facility of the same type as existed prior to
the Taking, having adequate ingress and egress to the Property, the Leases of
which covering 75% of the square footage of the Property immediately prior to
such Taking will not be terminated due to the Taking during and following the
restoration of such Property and being capable of producing a projected Net
Operating Income (as reasonably determined by Lender) yielding a projected Debt
Service Coverage therefrom for the next two (2) years of not less than the
Required Debt Service Coverage or (ii) a Taking which occurs less than two (2)
years prior to the Maturity Date or (iii) a Taking which Lender is not
reasonably satisfied could be repaired within twelve (12) months and at least
six (6) months prior to the Maturity Date or (iv) a Taking of fifteen percent
(15%) or more of the Property.
(c) In the
case of a Substantial Taking, Condemnation Proceeds shall be payable to Lender
in reduction of the Debt but without any prepayment fee or charge of any kind
and, if Borrower elects to apply any Condemnation Proceeds it may receive
pursuant to this Security Instrument to the payment of the Debt, Borrower may
prepay the balance of the Debt without any prepayment fee or charge of any
kind.
(d) In the
event of a Taking which is less than a Substantial Taking, Borrower at its sole
cost and expense (whether or not the award shall have been received or shall be
sufficient for restoration) shall proceed diligently to restore, or cause the
restoration of, the remaining Improvements not so taken, to maintain a complete,
rentable, self-contained fully operational facility of the same sort as existed
prior to the Taking in as good a condition as is reasonably possible. In the
event of such a Taking, Lender shall receive the Condemnation Proceeds and shall
pay over the same:
(i) first,
provided no Default shall have occurred and be continuing, to Borrower to the
extent of any portion of the award as may be necessary to pay the reasonable
cost of restoration of the Improvements remaining, and
(ii) second,
to Lender, in reduction of the Debt without any prepayment premium or charge of
any kind.
If one or
more Takings in the aggregate create a Substantial Taking, then, in such event,
the sections of this Article VI above applicable to Substantial Takings shall
apply.
-66-
(e) In the
event Lender is obligated to or elects to make Condemnation Proceeds available
for the restoration or rebuilding of the Property, such proceeds shall be
disbursed in the manner and subject to the conditions set forth in Section
3.04(b) hereof. If, in accordance with this Article VI, any Condemnation
Proceeds are used to reduce the Debt, they shall be applied in accordance with
the provisions of the Note and, with no prepayment fee or charge of any kind.
Borrower shall promptly execute and deliver all instruments requested by Lender
for the purpose of confirming the assignment of the Condemnation Proceeds to
Lender. Application of all or any part of the Condemnation Proceeds to the Debt
shall be made in accordance with the provisions of Sections 3.06 and 3.07
hereof. No application of the Condemnation Proceeds to the reduction of the Debt
shall have the effect of releasing the lien of this Security Instrument until
the remainder of the Debt has been paid in full. In the case of any Taking,
Lender, to the extent that Lender has not been reimbursed by Borrower, shall be
entitled, as a first priority out of any Condemnation Proceeds, to reimbursement
for all costs, fees and expenses reasonably incurred in the determination and
collection of any Condemnation Proceeds. All Condemnation Proceeds deposited
with Lender pursuant to this Section, until expended or applied as provided
herein, shall be held in accordance with Section 3.04(b) hereof and shall
constitute additional security for the payment of the Debt and the payment and
performance of Borrower’s obligations, but Lender shall not be deemed a trustee
or other fiduciary with respect to its receipt of such Condemnation Proceeds or
any part thereof. All awards so deposited with Lender shall be held by Lender in
an Eligible Account, but Lender makes no representation or warranty as to the
rate or amount of interest, if any, which may accrue on any such deposit and
shall have no liability in connection therewith. For purposes hereof, any
reference to the award shall be deemed to include interest, if any, which has
accrued thereon.
ARTICLE
VII: LEASES
AND RENTS
Section
7.01. Assignment. b) Borrower
does hereby bargain, sell, assign and set over unto Lender, all of Borrower’s
interest in the Leases and Rents. The assignment of Leases and Rents in this
Section 7.01 is an absolute, unconditional and present assignment from Borrower
to Lender and not an assignment for security and the existence or exercise of
Borrower’s license (revocable by Lender only during the continuance of an Event
of Default) to collect Rent shall not operate to subordinate this assignment to
any subsequent assignment. The exercise by Lender of any of its rights or
remedies pursuant to this Section 7.01 shall not be deemed to make Lender a
mortgagee-in-possession. In addition to the provisions of this Article VII,
Borrower shall comply with all terms, provisions and conditions of the
Assignment.
(b) So long
as there shall exist and be continuing no Event of Default, Borrower shall have
a revocable license to take all actions with respect to all Leases and Rents,
present and future, including the right to collect and use the Rents, subject to
the terms of this Security Instrument and the Assignment.
(c) In a
separate instrument Borrower shall, as requested from time to time by Lender,
assign to Lender or its nominee by specific or general assignment, any and all
Leases, such assignments to be in form and content reasonably acceptable to
Lender, but subject to the provisions of Section 7.01(b) hereof. Borrower agrees
to deliver to Lender, within thirty (30) days after Lender’s request, a true and
complete copy of every Lease and, within ten (10) Business Days after Lender’s
request, a complete list of the Leases, certified by Borrower to be true,
accurate and complete and stating the demised premises, the names of the
lessees, the Rent payable under the Leases, the date to which such Rents have
been paid, the material terms of the Leases, including, without limitation, the
dates of occupancy, the dates of expiration, any Rent concessions, work
obligations or other inducements granted to the lessees thereunder, and any
renewal options.
-67-
(d) The
rights of Lender contained in this Article VII, the Assignment or any other
assignment of any Lease shall not result in any obligation or liability of
Lender to Borrower or any lessee under a Lease or any party claiming through any
such lessee or constitute an assumption by Lender of any such liability or
obligation.
(e) At any
time during the continuance of an Event of Default, the license granted
hereinabove may be revoked by Lender, and Lender or a receiver appointed in
accordance with this Security Instrument may enter upon the Property, and
collect, retain and apply the Rents toward payment of the Debt in such priority
and proportions as Lender in its sole discretion shall deem proper.
(f) In
addition to the rights which Lender may have herein, upon the occurrence and
during the continuance of any Event of Default, Lender, at its option, may
require Borrower to pay monthly in advance to Lender, or any receiver appointed
to collect the Rents, the fair and reasonable rental value for the use and
occupation of such part of the Property as may be used and occupied by Borrower
and may require Borrower to vacate and surrender possession of the Property to
Lender or to such receiver and, in default thereof, Borrower may be evicted by
summary proceedings or otherwise.
Section
7.02. Management of
Property.
(a) Borrower
shall manage the Property or cause the Property to be managed in a manner which
is consistent with the Approved Manager Standard. The Manager (other than
Borrower) shall at all times meet the Minimum Manager Credentials. All Space
Leases shall provide for rental rates comparable to then existing local market
rates and terms and conditions which constitute good and prudent business
practice and are consistent with prevailing market terms and conditions, and
shall be arm’s length transactions. All Space Leases shall be on a form
previously approved by Lender with such commercially reasonable changes as are
consistent with the standards of other similarly situated owners when compared
with terms and conditions of leases in similarly situated shopping centers in
similar context at the time in question, taking into account, inter alia, the
type, creditworthiness and bargaining power of the prospective tenant and the
location and size of the space covered by the proposed Lease, and shall provide
that they are subordinate to this Security Instrument and that the lessees
thereunder attorn to Lender. Borrower shall deliver copies of all Leases,
amendments, modifications and renewals thereof to Lender. All proposed Space
Leases for the Property shall be subject to the prior written approval of
Lender, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, provided, however that
Borrower may enter into new Space Leases with unrelated third parties without
obtaining the prior consent of Lender provided that: (i) the leases conform with
the requirements of this Section 7.02; (ii) the space to be leased pursuant to
such proposed Lease, together with any other space which is leased to the
proposed tenant or an Affiliate thereof, does not exceed 7,500 square feet; and
(iii) the term of the proposed lease does not exceed five (5) years and,
inclusive of all extensions and renewals, does not exceed ten (10) years.
Lender’s consent to any Lease shall be deemed given, if the first correspondence
from Borrower to Lender requesting such approval is in an envelope marked
“PRIORITY” and contains a bold-faced, conspicuous legend at the top of the first
page thereof stating that “IF YOU FAIL TO RESPOND TO OR TO EXPRESSLY DENY THIS
REQUEST FOR APPROVAL IN WRITING WITHIN TEN (10) BUSINESS DAYS, YOUR APPROVAL MAY
BE DEEMED GIVEN”, and is accompanied by the information and documents required
above and any other information reasonably requested by Lender in writing prior
to the expiration of such ten (10) Business Day period in order to adequately
review the same has been delivered and, if Lender fails to respond or to
expressly deny such request for approval in writing within the ten (10) Business
Day period a second notice is delivered to Lender from Borrower in an envelope
marked “PRIORITY” requesting approval containing a bold-faced, conspicuous
legend at the top of the first page thereof stating that “IF YOU FAIL TO RESPOND
TO OR EXPRESSLY DENY THIS REQUEST FOR APPROVAL IN WRITING WITHIN FIVE (5)
BUSINESS DAYS, YOUR APPROVAL SHALL BE DEEMED GIVEN” and Lender fails to respond
or to expressly deny each request for approval within the five (5) Business Day
period.
-68-
(b) Borrower
(i) shall observe and perform all of its material obligations under the Leases
pursuant to applicable Legal Requirements and shall not do or permit to be done
anything to impair the value of the Leases as security for the Debt; (ii) shall
promptly send copies to Lender of all notices of default which Borrower shall
receive under the Leases; (iii) shall, consistent with the Approved Manager
Standard, enforce all of the terms, covenants and conditions contained in the
Leases to be observed or performed; (iv) shall not collect any of the Rents
under the Leases more than one (1) month in advance (except that Borrower may
collect in advance (A) such security deposits as are permitted pursuant to
applicable Legal Requirements and are commercially reasonable in the prevailing
market and (B) all rent deemed “additional rent” under the Leases); (v) shall
not execute any other assignment of lessor’s interest in the Leases or the Rents
except as otherwise expressly permitted pursuant to this Security Instrument;
(vi) shall not cancel or terminate any of the Space Leases or accept a surrender
thereof in any manner inconsistent with the Approved Manager Standard; (vii)
shall not convey, transfer or suffer or permit a conveyance or transfer of all
or any part of the Premises or the Improvements or of any interest therein so as
to effect a merger of the estates and rights of, or a termination or diminution
of the obligations of, lessees thereunder; (viii) shall not alter, modify
or change the terms of any guaranty of any Major Space Lease or cancel or
terminate any such guaranty in any manner inconsistent with the Approved Manager
Standard; (ix) shall, in accordance with the Approved Manager Standard, make all
reasonable efforts to seek lessees for space as it becomes vacant and enter into
Leases in accordance with the terms hereof; (x) shall not materially modify,
alter or amend any Major Space Lease or Property Agreement without Lender’s
consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; (xi) shall
notify Lender promptly if any Pad Owner shall cease business operations or of
the occurrence of any event of which it becomes aware affecting a Pad Owner or
its property which might have any material effect on the Property; and (xii)
shall, without limitation to any other provision hereof, execute and deliver at
the reasonable request of Lender all such further assurances, confirmations and
assignments in connection with the Property as are required herein and as Lender
shall from time to time reasonably require.
-69-
(c) All
security deposits of lessees, whether held in cash or any other form, shall be
treated by Borrower as trust funds, shall not be commingled with any other funds
of Borrower and, if cash, shall be deposited by Borrower in the Security Deposit
Account. Any bond or other instrument which Borrower is permitted to hold in
lieu of cash security deposits under applicable Legal Requirements shall be
maintained in full force and effect unless replaced by cash deposits as
hereinabove described shall, if permitted pursuant to Legal Requirements, at
Lender’s option, name Lender as payee or mortgagee thereunder or be fully
assignable to Lender and shall, in all respects, comply with applicable Legal
Requirements and otherwise be reasonably satisfactory to Lender. Borrower shall,
upon request, provide Lender with evidence reasonably satisfactory to Lender of
Borrower’s compliance with the foregoing. During the continuance of any Event of
Default, Borrower shall, upon Lender’s request, if permitted by applicable Legal
Requirements, turn over the security deposits (and any interest thereon) to
Lender to be held by Lender in accordance with the terms of the Leases and all
Legal Requirements.
(d) Lender
shall, upon request of Borrower, enter into a subordination, nondisturbance and
attornment agreement (“SNDA”) with
respect to each proposed tenant entering into a Lease in compliance with the
requirements of this Security Instrument provided that such Lease is (i) with a
tenant occupying at least 7,500 square feet of the Premises or is with an
existing tenant pursuant to a Lease dated prior to the Closing Date which
provides that the tenant thereunder is entitled to an SNDA or with any tenant
which is renting space on a national basis which leases at least 2,000 square
feet of the Premises, (ii) with a tenant reasonably approved by Lender in
writing prior to Borrower’s execution of any such Lease and (iii) on the
standard form of Lease previously approved in writing by Lender with such
commercially reasonable changes as are consistent with the Approved Manager
Standard. Any SNDA executed by Lender shall be in Lender’s then standard form
with such changes as Lender shall agree to and provide that in the event Lender
or any purchaser at foreclosure shall succeed to Borrower’s interest in the
Property, the Leases of such tenants will remain in full force and effect and be
binding upon Lender or such purchaser and such tenant as though each were
original parties thereto
(e) Borrower
covenants and agrees with Lender that (i) the Property will be managed at all
times by Borrower in accordance with Borrower’s organizational documents or by a
Manager pursuant to a management agreement approved by Lender (the “Management
Agreement”), (ii)
after Borrower has knowledge of a fifty percent (50%) or more change in control
of the ownership of Manager, Borrower will promptly give Lender notice thereof
(a “Manager Control
Notice”) and
(iii) the Management Agreement (or in the case Borrower is acting as Manager,
Borrower’s right to manage the Property) may be terminated by Lender at any time
for cause (including, but not limited to, Manager’s gross negligence,
misappropriation of funds, willful misconduct or fraud) or at any time following
(A) the occurrence of an Event of Default, or (B) the receipt of a Manager
Control Notice, or (C) the date upon which the Debt Service Coverage is 1.05:1.0
or less. In the event of any such termination, a substitute managing agent shall
be appointed by Borrower, subject to Lender’s prior written approval, which may
be given or withheld in Lender’s sole discretion and which may be conditioned
on, inter alia, a letter from each Rating Agency confirming that any rating
issued by the Rating Agency in connection with a Securitization will not, as a
result of the proposed change of Manager, be downgraded from the then current
ratings thereof, qualified or withdrawn. Borrower may from time to time appoint
a successor manager to manage the Property with Lender’s prior written consent
which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, provided that any
such successor manager shall be a reputable management company which meets the
Minimum Manager Credentials and each Rating Agency shall have confirmed in
writing that any rating issued by the Rating Agency in connection with a
Securitization will not, as a result of the proposed change of Manager, be
downgraded from the then current ratings thereof, qualified or withdrawn.
Borrower further covenants and agrees that Borrower shall require Manager (or
any successor managers) to maintain at all times during the term of the Loan
worker’s compensation insurance as required by Governmental
Authorities.

interest of this Security Instrument.

operation or maintenance of the Property, Borrower shall not be required to
replace the same. All such replacements or additional equipment shall be deemed
to constitute “Equipment” and shall be covered by the security interest herein
granted.

Property as security for repayment of the Debt and Borrower acknowledges that
Lender has a valid interest in maintaining the value of the Property. Borrower
shall not Transfer, nor permit any Transfer, without the prior written consent
of Lender, which consent Lender may withhold in its sole and absolute discretion
other than pursuant to Space Leases as provided herein. Lender shall not be
required to demonstrate any actual impairment of its security or any increased
risk of default hereunder in order to declare the Debt immediately due and
payable upon a Transfer without Lender’s consent. This provision shall apply to
every Transfer regardless of whether voluntary or not, or whether or not Lender

(x) written confirmation that any rating issued by such Rating Agency in
connection with the Securitization will not, as a result of the proposed
Transfer, be downgraded from the then current ratings thereof, qualified or
withdrawn, and (y) a substantive non-consolidation opinion in form and

Property or any part thereof or interest in the Property or in Borrower
regardless of whether voluntary or not, or whether or not Lender has consented
to any previous Transfer or further encumbrance of the Property or interest in
Borrower.
Section
9.04. Permitted
Transfer.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article IX, the sale,
conveyance or transfer of the Property in its entirety, (hereinafter,
“Sale”) shall

are satisfied:
(a) no Event
of Default is then continuing hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents
and no O&M Operative Period shall have commenced and be
continuing;
(b) Lender
shall have consented to the Sale, provided, however, in the event that such sale
is being made to a nationally recognized operator of retail outlet shopping
centers, Lender's consent shall not be unreasonably withheld and, if the
proposed Sale is to occur at any time after a Securitization, each Rating Agency
shall have delivered written confirmation that any rating issued by such Rating
Agency in connection with the Securitization will not, as a result of the

any contemplated sale of the Loan by Lender, whether in connection with a
Securitization or otherwise;
(c) Borrower
gives Lender written notice of the terms of the proposed Sale not less than
forty-five (45) days before the date on which such Sale is scheduled to close
and, concurrently therewith, gives Lender (i) all such information concerning
the proposed transferee of the Property (hereinafter, “Buyer”) as
Lender would require in evaluating an initial extension of credit to a borrower
and Lender determines, in its reasonable discretion that the Buyer is acceptable
to Lender in all respects and (ii) a non-refundable application fee equal to
$5,000;
-73-
(d) Borrower
pays Lender, concurrently with the closing of such Sale, a non-refundable
assumption fee in an amount equal to one percent (1.0%) of the then outstanding
Loan Amount together with all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses,
including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by Lender in
connection with the Sale;
(e) Buyer
assumes all of the obligations under the Loan Documents and, prior to or

expense to Lender, such documents and agreements as Lender shall reasonably

insurance policy insuring the lien of this Security Instrument, extending the
effective date of such policy to the date of execution and delivery (or, if
later, of recording) of the assumption agreement referenced above in

policy, and insuring that fee simple title to the Property is vested in
Buyer;

executes and delivers to Lender, without any cost or expense to Lender, a
release of Lender, its officers, directors, employees and agents, from all
claims and liability relating to the transactions evidenced by the Loan
Documents, through and including the date of the closing of the Sale, which
agreement shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender and
shall be binding upon Buyer;
(i) subject
to the provisions of Section 18.32 hereof, such Sale is not construed so as to
relieve Borrower of any personal liability under the Note or any of the other
Loan Documents for any acts or events occurring or obligations arising prior to
or simultaneously with the closing of such Sale, and Borrower executes, without
any cost or expense to Lender, such documents and agreements as Lender shall
reasonably require to evidence and effectuate the ratification of said personal
liability; provided that, upon the closing of such Sale, if Borrower and Buyer
have satisfied each of the terms of this Section 9.04, as reasonably determined
by Lender, Lender shall release Borrower from all obligations arising after the
closing of such Sale. Additionally, if a replacement guarantor acceptable to
Lender in its reasonable discretion executes a guaranty identical in substance
to the Indemnity and Guaranty, Lender shall release the existing Guarantor from
any liabilities under the Indemnity and Guaranty arising after the closing of
such Sale;
(j) such Sale
is not construed so as to relieve any Guarantor of its obligations under any
guaranty or indemnity agreement executed in connection with the Loan and each
such Guarantor executes, without any cost or expense to Lender, such documents
and agreements as Lender shall reasonably require to evidence and effectuate the
ratification of each such guaranty agreement, provided that if Buyer or a party
associated with Buyer approved by Lender in its sole discretion assumes the
obligations of the current Guarantor under its guaranty and Buyer or such party
associated with Buyer, as applicable, executes, without any cost or expense to
Lender, a new guaranty in similar form and substance to the existing guaranty
and otherwise satisfactory to Lender, then Lender shall release the current
Guarantor from all obligations arising under its guaranty after the closing of
such Sale; and

arising on or against the Property or any part thereof under any Legal
Requirement or any liability asserted against any of the Indemnified Parties

tax or other imposition on the making and/or recording of this Security
Instrument, the Note or any of the other Loan Documents unless otherwise set
forth herein; (j) a Default under Sections 2.02(f) or 2.02(g) hereof, (k) the

misconduct or gross negligence. Any amounts payable to Lender by reason of the

representation advisable. Any Indemnified Party will give Borrower prompt notice
after such Indemnified Party obtains actual knowledge of any potential claim by
such Indemnified Party for indemnification hereunder. The Indemnified Parties
shall not settle or compromise any action, proceeding or claim as to which it is
indemnified hereunder without notice to, and provided that no Event of Default

-80-
(b) Any time
after an Event of Default Lender (or the Trustee, at the request of Lender),
shall have the power, to the extent permitted by the Nebraska Trust Deeds Act in
effect from time to time or other applicable law, to sell the Property or any

required or permitted by law to convey the Property or portions thereof in one
or more sales in fee simple by Trustee’s deed to and at the cost of the
purchaser, who shall not be liable to see to the application of the purchase

Section 13.02, together with any other sums which then may be held by Lender (or
the Trustee) under this Security Instrument, whether under the provisions of
this Section 13.02 or otherwise, shall, to the extent permitted by applicable
law, be applied as follows:
First: To
the payment of the third-party costs and expenses reasonably incurred in
connection with any such sale and to advances, fees and expenses, including,
without limitation, Trustee's fees actually incurred title service guaranty
fees, reasonable fees and expenses of Lender’s and Trustee’s legal counsel as

-81-
Second:

Fifth:
The surplus, if any, to Borrower or such other Persons as may be legally

proceeds and profits actually received by it.
(c) Trustee

this in accordance with the Nebraska Trust Deeds Act or other applicable law,
except as otherwise provided by any applicable provision of the Nebraska Trust
Deeds Act or other Legal Requirements, Trustee, without further notice or
publication, may make such sale at the time and place to which the same shall be
so adjourned.
(d) Upon the
completion of any sale or sales made by Lender (or the Trustee) under or by
virtue of this Section 13.02, Lender or Trustee, as applicable, or any officer
of any court empowered to do so, shall execute and deliver to the accepted
purchaser or purchasers a good and sufficient instrument, or good and sufficient
instruments, granting, conveying, assigning and transferring all estate, right,
title and interest in and to the property and rights sold. Lender (or Trustee,
as applicable) is hereby irrevocably appointed the true and lawful
attorney-in-fact of Borrower (coupled with an interest), in its name and stead,
to make all necessary conveyances, assignments, transfers and deliveries of the
property and rights so sold pursuant to this Section 13.02 and for that purpose
Lender (or the Trustee) may execute all necessary instruments of conveyance,
assignment, transfer and delivery, and may substitute one or more Persons with
like power, Borrower hereby ratifying and confirming all that its said
attorney-in-fact or such substitute or substitutes shall lawfully do by virtue
hereof. Nevertheless, Borrower, if so requested by Lender, shall ratify and
confirm any such sale or sales by executing and delivering to Lender, or to such
purchaser or purchasers all such instruments as may be advisable, in the sole
judgment of Lender, for such purpose, and as may be designated in such request.
Any such sale or sales made under or by virtue of this Section 13.02, whether
made under the power of sale herein granted or under or by virtue of judicial
proceedings or a judgment or decree of foreclosure and sale, shall operate to
divest all the estate, right, title, interest, claim and demand whatsoever,
whether at law or in equity, of Borrower in and to the property and rights so
sold, and shall, to the fullest extent permitted under Legal Requirements, be a
perpetual bar, both at law and in equity against Borrower and against any and
all Persons claiming or who may claim the same, or any part thereof, from,
through or under Borrower.
-82-
(e) In the
event of any sale made under or by virtue of this Section 13.02 (whether made
under the power of sale herein granted or under or by virtue of judicial
proceedings or a judgment or decree of foreclosure and sale), the entire Debt
immediately thereupon shall, anything in the Loan Documents to the contrary
notwithstanding, become due and payable.
(f) Upon any
sale made under or by virtue of this Section 13.02 (whether made under the power
of sale herein granted or under or by virtue of judicial proceedings or a
judgment or decree of foreclosure and sale), Lender may bid for and acquire the
Property or any part thereof and in lieu of paying cash therefor may make
settlement for the purchase price by crediting upon the Debt the net sales price
after deducting therefrom the expenses of the sale and the costs of the
action.
(g) No
recovery of any judgment by Lender and no levy of an execution under any
judgment upon the Property or any part thereof or upon any other property of
Borrower shall release the lien of this Security Instrument upon the Property or
any part thereof, or any liens, rights, powers or remedies of Lender hereunder,
but such liens, rights, powers and remedies of Lender shall continue unimpaired
until all amounts due under the Note, this Security Instrument and the other
Loan Documents are paid in full.
(h) Upon the
exercise by Lender (or the Trustee at the request of Lender) of any power,
right, privilege, or remedy pursuant to this Security Instrument which requires
any consent, approval, registration, qualification, or authorization of any
Governmental Authority, Borrower agrees to execute and deliver, or will cause
the execution and delivery of, all applications, certificates, instruments,
assignments and other documents and papers that Lender or any purchaser of the
Property may be required to obtain for such governmental consent, approval,
registration, qualification, or authorization and Lender is hereby irrevocably
appointed the true and lawful attorney-in-fact of Borrower (coupled with an
interest), in its name and stead, to execute all such applications,
certificates, instruments, assignments and other documents and
papers.
Section
13.03. Payment of Debt After
Default. Except
as otherwise required by the Nebraska Trust Deeds Act or other applicable law,
if, following the occurrence of any Event of Default, Borrower shall tender
payment of an amount sufficient to satisfy the Debt in whole or in part at any
time prior to a foreclosure sale or trustee's sale of the Property, and if at
the time of such tender prepayment of the principal balance of the Note is not
permitted by the Note or this Security Instrument, Borrower shall, in addition
to the entire Debt, also pay to Lender all amounts due Lender under Section
1.5(b) of the Note. If at the time of such tender, prepayment of the principal
balance of the Note is permitted, such tender by Borrower shall be deemed to be
a voluntary prepayment of the principal balance of the Note and Borrower shall,
in addition to the entire Debt, also pay to Lender the applicable prepayment
consideration specified in the Note and this Security Instrument.
Section
13.04. Possession of the
Property. Upon
the occurrence of any Event of Default hereunder and the acceleration of the
Debt or any portion thereof, Borrower, if an occupant of the Property or any
part thereof, upon demand of Lender, shall immediately surrender possession of
the Property (or the portion thereof so occupied) to Lender, and if Borrower is
permitted to remain in possession, the possession shall be as a month-to-month
tenant of Lender and, on demand, Borrower shall pay to Lender monthly, in
advance, a reasonable rental for the space so occupied and in default thereof
Borrower may be dispossessed. The covenants herein contained may be enforced by
a receiver of the Property or any part thereof. Nothing in this Section 13.04
shall be deemed to be a waiver of the provisions of this Security Instrument
making the Transfer of the Property or any part thereof without Lender’s prior
written consent an Event of Default.
-83-
Section
13.05. Interest After
Default. If any
amount due under the Note, this Security Instrument or any of the other Loan
Documents is not paid within any applicable notice and grace period after same
is due, whether such date is the stated due date, any accelerated due date or
any other date or at any other time specified under any of the terms hereof or
thereof, then, in such event, Borrower shall pay interest on the amount not so
paid from and after the date on which such amount first becomes due at the
Default Rate; and such interest shall be due and payable at such rate until the
earlier of the cure of all Events of Default or the payment of the entire amount
due to Lender, whether or not any action shall have been taken or proceeding
commenced to recover the same or to foreclose this Security Instrument. All
unpaid and accrued interest shall be secured by this Security Instrument as part
of the Debt. Nothing in this Section 13.05 or in any other provision of this
Security Instrument shall constitute an extension of the time for payment of the
Debt.
Section
13.06. Borrower’s Actions After
Default. After
the happening of any Event of Default and immediately upon the commencement of
any action, suit or other legal proceedings by Lender to obtain judgment for the
Debt, or of any other nature in aid of the enforcement of the Loan Documents,
Borrower will (a) after receipt of notice of the institution of any such action,
waive the issuance and service of process and enter its voluntary appearance in
such action, suit or proceeding, and (b) if required by Lender, consent to the
appointment of a receiver or receivers of the Property or any part thereof and
of all the earnings, revenues, rents, issues, profits and income
thereof.
Section
13.07. Control by Lender After
Default.
Notwithstanding the appointment of any custodian, receiver, liquidator or
trustee of Borrower, or of any of its property, or of the Property or any part
thereof, to the extent permitted by Legal Requirements, Lender shall be entitled
to obtain possession and control of all property now and hereafter covered by
this Security Instrument and the Assignment following the occurrence of an Event
of Default in accordance with the terms hereof.
Section
13.08. Right to Cure
Defaults. (a) Upon the
occurrence of any Event of Default, Lender or its agents may, but without any
obligation to do so and without notice to or demand on Borrower and without
releasing Borrower from any obligation hereunder, make or do the same in such
manner and to such extent as Lender may deem necessary to protect the security
hereof. Lender and its agents are authorized to enter upon the Property or any
part thereof for such purposes, or appear in, defend, or bring any action or
proceedings to protect Lender’s interest in the Property or any part thereof or
to foreclose this Security Instrument or collect the Debt, and the cost and
expense thereof (including reasonable attorneys’ fees to the extent permitted by
law), with interest as provided in this Section 13.08, shall constitute a
portion of the Debt and shall be immediately due and payable to Lender upon
demand. All such costs and expenses incurred by Lender or its agents in
remedying such Event of Default or in appearing in, defending, or bringing any
such action or proceeding shall bear interest at the Default Rate, for the
period from the date so demanded to the date of payment to Lender. All such
costs and expenses incurred by Lender or its agents together with interest
thereon calculated at the above rate shall be deemed to constitute a portion of
the Debt and be secured by this Security Instrument.
-84-
(b) If Lender
makes any payment or advance that Lender is authorized by this Security
Instrument to make in the place and stead of Borrower (i) relating to the
Impositions or tax liens asserted against the Property, Lender may do so
according to any ▇▇▇▇, statement or estimate procured from the appropriate
public office without inquiry into the accuracy of the ▇▇▇▇, statement or
estimate or into the validity of any of the Impositions or the tax liens or
claims thereof; (ii) relating to any apparent or threatened adverse title, lien,
claim of lien, encumbrance, claim or charge, Lender will be the sole judge of
the legality or validity of same; or (iii) relating to any other purpose
authorized by this Security Instrument but not enumerated in this Section 13.08,
Lender may do so whenever, in its judgment and discretion, the payment or
advance seems necessary or desirable to protect the Property and the full
security interest intended to be created by this Security Instrument. In
connection with any payment or advance made pursuant to this Section 13.08,
Lender has the option and is authorized, but in no event shall be obligated, to
obtain a continuation report of title prepared by a title insurance company. The
payments and the advances made by Lender pursuant to this Section 13.08 and the
cost and expenses of said title report will be due and payable by Borrower on
demand, together with interest at the Default Rate, and will be secured by this
Security Instrument.
Section
13.09. Late Payment
Charge. If any
portion of the Debt is not paid in full on or before the day on which it is due
and payable hereunder Borrower shall pay to Lender an amount equal to five
percent (5%) of such unpaid portion of the Debt (“Late
Charge”) to
defray the expense incurred by Lender in handling and processing such delinquent
payment, and such amount shall constitute a part of the Debt; provided, that no
late charge shall be due and payable if Borrower fails to repay the Loan
evidenced hereby upon the Maturity Date (whether by acceleration or
otherwise).
Section
13.10. Recovery of Sums Required to
Be Paid. Lender
shall have the right from time to time to take action to recover any sum or sums
which constitute a part of the Debt as the same become due and payable hereunder
(after the expiration of any grace period or the giving of any notice herein
provided, if any), without regard to whether or not the balance of the Debt
shall be due, and without prejudice to the right of Lender thereafter to bring
an action of foreclosure, or any other action, for a default or defaults by
Borrower existing at the time such earlier action was commenced.
Section
13.11. Marshalling and Other
Matters.
Borrower hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the benefit of
all appraisement, valuation, stay, extension, reinstatement, redemption (both
equitable and statutory) and homestead laws now or hereafter in force and all
rights of marshalling in the event of any sale hereunder of the Property or any
part thereof or any interest therein. Further, Borrower hereby expressly waives
any and all rights of redemption from sale under any order or decree of
foreclosure of this Security Instrument on behalf of Borrower, whether equitable
or statutory and on behalf of each and every Person acquiring any interest in or
title to the Property or any part thereof subsequent to the date of this
Security Instrument and on behalf of all Persons to the fullest extent permitted
by applicable law.
-85-
Section
13.12. Tax Reduction
Proceedings. After
an Event of Default, Borrower shall be deemed to have appointed Lender as its
attorney-in-fact to seek a reduction or reductions in the assessed valuation of
the Property for real property tax purposes or for any other purpose and to
prosecute any action or proceeding in connection therewith. This power, being
coupled with an interest, shall be irrevocable for so long as any part of the
Debt remains unpaid and any Event of Default shall be continuing.
Section
13.13. General Provisions Regarding
Remedies.
(a) Right to Terminate
Proceedings. Lender
or Trustee may terminate or rescind any proceeding or other action brought in
connection with its exercise of the remedies provided in Section 13.02 at any
time before the conclusion thereof, as determined in Lender’s sole discretion
and without prejudice to Lender or Trustee.
(b) No Waiver or
Release. The
failure of Lender or Trustee to exercise any right, remedy or option provided in
the Loan Documents shall not be deemed a waiver of such right, remedy or option
or of any covenant or obligation contained in the Loan Documents. No acceptance
by Lender of any payment after the occurrence of an Event of Default and no
payment by Lender of any payment or obligation for which Borrower is liable
hereunder shall be deemed to waive or cure any Event of Default except as
otherwise required by the Nebraska Trust Deeds Act or other applicable law. No
sale of all or any portion of the Property, no forbearance on the part of
Lender, and no extension of time for the payment of the whole or any portion of
the Debt or any other indulgence given by Lender to Borrower or any other
Person, shall operate to release or in any manner affect the interest of Lender
in the Property or the liability of Borrower to pay the Debt. No waiver by
Lender shall be effective unless it is in writing and then only to the extent
specifically stated.
(c) No Impairment; No
Releases. The
interests and rights of Lender under the Loan Documents shall not be impaired by
any indulgence, including (i) any renewal, extension or modification which
Lender may grant with respect to any of the Debt; (ii) any surrender,
compromise, release, renewal, extension, exchange or substitution which Lender
may grant with respect to the Property or any portion thereof; or (iii) any
release or indulgence granted to any maker, endorser, guarantor or surety of any
of the Debt.
(d) Effect on
Judgment. No
recovery of any judgment by Lender and no levy of an execution under any
judgment upon the Property or any portion thereof shall affect in any rights,
powers or remedies of Lender hereunder or thereunder. Such lien, rights, powers
and remedies of Lender shall continue unimpaired as before.

and other substances customarily used in the operation of properties that are
being used for the same purposes as the Property is presently being used,

lien against the Property or any part thereof. In addition, without limitation
to the foregoing provisions, Borrower represents and warrants that, to the best
of its knowledge, except as previously disclosed in writing to Lender or in the

Notwithstanding
the foregoing provisions of this Section 16.02 to the contrary, Borrower shall
have no obligation to indemnify Lender for liabilities, claims, damages,
penalties, causes of action, costs and expenses relative to the foregoing which
result directly from Lender’s willful misconduct or gross negligence. Any
amounts payable to Lender by reason of the application of this Section 16.02
shall be secured by this Security Instrument and shall, upon demand by Lender,
become immediately due and payable and shall bear interest at the Default Rate
from the date so demanded by Lender until paid.
This
indemnification shall survive the termination of this Security Instrument
whether by repayment of the Debt, foreclosure or deed in lieu thereof,
assignment, or otherwise. The indemnity provided for in this Section 16.02 shall
not be included in any exculpation of Borrower or its principals from personal
liability provided for in this Security Instrument or in any of the other Loan
Documents. Nothing in this Section 16.02 shall be deemed to deprive Lender of
any rights or remedies otherwise available to Lender, including, without
limitation, those rights and remedies provided elsewhere in this Security
Instrument or the other Loan Documents. The foregoing indemnity shall
specifically not include any such costs relating to Hazardous Materials which
are initially placed on, in or under any of the Properties after foreclosure or

assigns.

Section

Law.

TO CONTRACTS MADE AND PERFORMED IN SUCH STATE AND ANY APPLICABLE LAW OF THE
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.
Section
18.14. Security
Agreement. (a)
(i) This
Security Instrument is both a real property mortgage, deed to secure debt or
deed of trust, as applicable, and a “security agreement” within the meaning of
the UCC. The Property includes both real and personal property and all other
rights and interests, whether tangible or intangible in nature, of Borrower in
the Property, and Borrower hereby grants to Lender a security interest in all
portions of the Property constituting personal property or fixtures under the
UCC. This Security Instrument is filed as a fixture filing and covers goods
which are or are to become fixtures on the Property. Borrower by executing and
delivering this Security Instrument has granted to Lender, as security for the
Debt, a security interest in the Property to the full extent that the Property
may be subject to the UCC (said portion of the Property so subject to the UCC
being called in this Section 18.14 the “Collateral”). If an
Event of Default shall occur, Lender, in addition to any other rights and
remedies which it may have, shall have and may exercise immediately and without
demand, any and all rights and remedies granted to a secured party upon default
under the UCC, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the
right to take possession of the Collateral or any part thereof, and to take such
other measures as Lender may deem necessary for the care, protection and
preservation of the Collateral. Upon request or demand of Lender following an
Event of Default, Borrower shall, at its expense, assemble the Collateral and
make it available to Lender at a convenient place acceptable to Lender. Borrower
shall pay to Lender on demand any and all expenses, including reasonable legal
expenses and attorneys’ fees, incurred or paid by Lender in protecting its
interest in the Collateral and in enforcing its rights hereunder with respect to
the Collateral. Any disposition pursuant to the UCC of so much of the Collateral
as may constitute personal property shall be considered commercially reasonable
if made pursuant to a public sale which is advertised at least twice in a
newspaper in which sheriff’s sales are advertised in the county where the
Premises is located. Any notice of sale, disposition or other intended action by
Lender with respect to the Collateral given to Borrower in accordance with the
provisions hereof at least ten (10) days prior to such action, shall constitute
reasonable notice to Borrower. The proceeds of any disposition of the
Collateral, or any part thereof, may be applied by Lender to the payment of the
Debt in such priority and proportions as Lender in its discretion shall deem
proper. It is not necessary that the Collateral be present at any disposition
thereof. Lender shall have no obligation to clean-up or otherwise prepare the
Collateral for disposition.
-93-
(ii) The
mention in a financing statement filed in the records normally pertaining to
personal property of any portion of the Property shall not derogate from or
impair in any manner the intention of this Security Instrument. Lender hereby
declares that all items of Collateral are part of the real property encumbered
hereby to the fullest extent permitted by law, regardless of whether any such
item is physically attached to the Improvements or whether serial numbers are
used for the better identification of certain items. Specifically, the mention
in any such financing statement of any items included in the Property shall not
be construed to alter, impair or impugn any rights of Lender as determined by
this Security Instrument or the priority of Lender’s lien upon and security
interest in the Property in the event that notice of Lender’s priority of
interest as to any portion of the Property is required to be filed in accordance
with the UCC to be effective against or take priority over the interest of any
particular class of persons, including the federal government or any subdivision
or instrumentality thereof. No portion of the Collateral constitutes or is the
proceeds of “Farm Products”, as defined in the UCC.
(iii) If
Borrower is at any time a beneficiary under a letter of credit now or hereafter
issued in favor of Borrower, Borrower shall promptly notify Lender thereof and,
at the request and option of Lender, Borrower shall, pursuant to an agreement in
form and substance satisfactory to Lender, either (A) arrange for the issuer and
any confirmer of such letter of credit to consent to an assignment to Lender of
the proceeds of any drawing under the letter of credit or (B) arrange for Lender
to become the transferee beneficiary of the letter of credit, with Lender
agreeing, in each case, that the proceeds of any drawing under the letter to
credit are to be applied as provided in this Security Instrument.
-94-
(iv) Borrower
and Lender acknowledge that for the purposes of Article 9 of the UCC, the law of
the State of New York shall be the law of the jurisdiction of the bank in which
the Central Account is located.
(v) Lender
may comply with any applicable Legal Requirements in connection with the
disposition of the Collateral, and Lender’s compliance therewith will not be
considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the
Collateral.
(vi) Lender
may sell the Collateral without giving any warranties as to the Collateral.
Lender may specifically disclaim any warranties of title, possession, quiet
enjoyment or the like. This procedure will not be considered to adversely affect
the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral.
(vii) If Lender
sells any of the Collateral upon credit, Borrower will be credited only with
payments actually made by the purchaser, received by Lender and applied to the
indebtedness of Borrower. In the event the purchaser of the Collateral fails to
fully pay for the Collateral, Lender may resell the Collateral and Borrower will
be credited with the proceeds of such sale.
(b) Borrower
hereby irrevocably appoints Lender as its attorney-in-fact, coupled with an
interest, to file with the appropriate public office on its behalf any financing
or other statements signed only by Lender, as secured party, or, to the extent
permitted under the UCC, unsigned, in connection with the Collateral covered by
this Security Instrument.
Section
18.15. Actions and
Proceedings. Lender
has the right to appear in and defend any action or proceeding brought with
respect to the Property in its own name or, if required by Legal Requirements
or, if in Lender’s reasonable judgment, it is necessary, in the name and on
behalf of Borrower, which Lender believes will adversely affect the Property or
this Security Instrument and to bring any action or proceedings, in its name or
in the name and on behalf of Borrower, which Lender, in its reasonable
discretion, decides should be brought to protect its interest in the
Property.
Section
18.16. Usury
Laws. This
Security Instrument and the Note are subject to the express condition, and it is
the expressed intent of the parties, that at no time shall Borrower be obligated
or required to pay interest on the principal balance due under the Note at a
rate which could subject the holder of the Note to either civil or criminal
liability as a result of being in excess of the maximum interest rate which
Borrower is permitted by law to contract or agree to pay. If by the terms of
this Security Instrument or the Note, Borrower is at any time required or
obligated to pay interest on the principal balance due under the Note at a rate
in excess of such maximum rate, such rate of interest shall be deemed to be
immediately reduced to such maximum rate and the interest payable shall be
computed at such maximum rate and all prior interest payments in excess of such
maximum rate shall be applied and shall be deemed to have been payments in
reduction of the principal balance of the Note. No application to the principal
balance of the Note pursuant to this Section 18.16 shall give rise to any
requirement to pay any prepayment fee or charge of any kind due hereunder, if
any.
-95-
Section
18.17. Remedies of
Borrower. In the
event that a claim or adjudication is made that Lender has acted unreasonably or
unreasonably delayed acting in any case where by law or under the Note, this
Security Instrument or the Loan Documents, it has an obligation to act
reasonably or promptly, Lender shall not be liable for any monetary damages, and
Borrower’s remedies shall be limited to injunctive relief or declaratory
judgment.
Section
18.18. Offsets, Counterclaims and
Defenses. Any
assignee of this Security Instrument, the Assignment and the Note shall take the
same free and clear of all offsets, counterclaims or defenses which are
unrelated to the Note, the Assignment or this Security Instrument which Borrower
may otherwise have against any assignor of this Security Instrument, the
Assignment and the Note and no such unrelated counterclaim or defense shall be
interposed or asserted by Borrower in any action or proceeding brought by any
such assignee upon this Security Instrument, the Assignment or the Note and any
such right to interpose or assert any such unrelated offset, counterclaim or
defense in any such action or proceeding is hereby expressly waived by
Borrower.
Section
18.19. No Merger. If
Borrower’s and Lender’s estates become the same including, without limitation,
upon the delivery of a deed by Borrower in lieu of a foreclosure sale, or upon a
purchase of the Property by Lender in a foreclosure sale, this Security
Instrument and the lien created hereby shall not be destroyed or terminated by
the application of the doctrine of merger and in such event Lender shall
continue to have and enjoy all of the rights and privileges of Lender as to the
separate estates; and, as a consequence thereof, upon the foreclosure of the
lien created by this Security Instrument, any Leases or subleases then existing
and created by Borrower shall not be destroyed or terminated by application of
the law of merger or as a result of such foreclosure unless Lender or any
purchaser at any such foreclosure sale shall so elect. No act by or on behalf of
Lender or any such purchaser shall constitute a termination of any Lease or
sublease unless Lender or such purchaser shall give written notice thereof to
such lessee or sublessee.
Section
18.20. Restoration of
Rights. In case
Lender shall have proceeded to enforce any right under this Security Instrument
by foreclosure sale, entry or otherwise, and such proceedings shall have been
discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined
adversely, then, in every such case, Borrower and Lender shall be restored to
their former positions and rights hereunder with respect to the Property subject
to the lien hereof.
Section
18.21. Waiver of Statute of
Limitations. The
pleadings of any statute of limitations as a defense to any and all obligations
secured by this Security Instrument are hereby waived to the full extent
permitted by Legal Requirements.
Section
18.22. Advances. This
Security Instrument shall cover any and all advances made pursuant to the Loan
Documents, rearrangements and renewals of the Debt and all extensions in the
time of payment thereof, even though such advances, extensions or renewals be
evidenced by new promissory notes or other instruments hereafter executed and
irrespective of whether filed or recorded. Likewise, the execution of this
Security Instrument shall not impair or affect any other security which may be
given to secure the payment of the Debt, and all such additional security shall
be considered as cumulative. The taking of additional security, execution of
partial releases of the security, or any extension of time of payment of the
Debt shall not diminish the force, effect or lien of this Security Instrument
and shall not affect or impair the liability of Borrower and shall not affect or
impair the liability of any maker, surety, or endorser for the payment of the
Debt.
-96-
Section
18.23. Application of Default Rate
Not a Waiver.
Application of the Default Rate shall not be deemed to constitute a waiver of
any Default or Event of Default or any rights or remedies of Lender under this
Security Instrument, any other Loan Document or applicable Legal Requirements,
or a consent to any extension of time for the payment or performance of any
obligation with respect to which the Default Rate may be invoked.
Section
18.24. Intervening
Lien. To the
fullest extent permitted by law, any agreement hereafter made pursuant to this
Security Instrument shall be superior to the rights of the holder of any
intervening lien or security interest.
Section
18.25. No Joint Venture or
Partnership.
Borrower and Lender intend that the relationship created hereunder be solely
that of Borrower and mortgagee or grantor and beneficiary or borrower and
lender, as the case may be. Nothing herein is intended to create a joint
venture, partnership, tenancy-in-common, or joint tenancy relationship between
Borrower and Lender nor to grant Lender any interest in the Property other than
that of mortgagee, beneficiary or lender.
Section
18.26. Time of the
Essence. Time
shall be of the essence in the performance of all obligations of Borrower
hereunder.
Section
18.27. Borrower’s Obligations
Absolute.
Borrower acknowledges that Lender and/or certain Affiliates of Lender are
engaged in the business of financing, owning, operating, leasing, managing, and
brokering real estate and in other business ventures which may be viewed as
adverse to or competitive with the business, prospect, profits, operations or
condition (financial or otherwise) of Borrower. Except as set forth to the
contrary in the Loan Documents, all sums payable by Borrower hereunder shall be
paid without notice or demand, counterclaim, set-off, deduction or defense and
without abatement, suspension, deferment, diminution or reduction, and the
obligations and liabilities of Borrower hereunder shall in no way be released,
discharged, or otherwise affected (except as expressly provided herein) by
reason of: (a) any damage to or destruction of or any Taking of the
Property; (b) any
restriction or prevention of or interference with any use of the Property or any
portion thereof; (c) any title defect or encumbrance or any eviction from the
Premises or any portion thereof by title paramount or otherwise; (d) any
bankruptcy proceeding relating to Borrower, any General Partner, or any
guarantor or indemnitor, or any action taken with respect to this Security
Instrument or any other Loan Document by any trustee or receiver of Borrower or
any such General Partner, guarantor or indemnitor, or by any court, in any such
proceeding; (e) any claim which Borrower has or might have against Lender; (f)
any default or failure on the part of Lender to perform or comply with any of
the terms hereof or of any other agreement with Borrower; or (g) any other
occurrence whatsoever, whether similar or dissimilar to the foregoing, whether
or not Borrower shall have notice or knowledge of any of the
foregoing.
Section
18.28. Publicity. All
promotional news releases, publicity or advertising by Manager, Borrower or
their respective Affiliates through any media intended to reach the general
public shall not refer to the Loan Documents or the financing evidenced by the
Loan Documents, or to Lender or to any of its Affiliates without the prior
written approval of Lender or such Affiliate, as applicable, in each instance,
such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Lender shall be
authorized to provide information relating to the Property, the Loan and matters
relating thereto to rating agencies, underwriters, potential securities
investors, auditors, regulatory authorities and to any Persons which may be
entitled to such information by operation of law.
-97-
Section
18.29. Securitization
Opinions. In the
event the Loan is included as an asset of a Securitization by Lender or any of
its Affiliates, Borrower shall, within fifteen (15) Business Days after Lender’s
written request therefor, at Lender’s sole cost and expense, deliver opinions in
form and substance and delivered by counsel reasonably acceptable to Lender and
each Rating Agency, as may be reasonably required by Lender and/or each Rating
Agency in connection with such securitization. Borrower’s failure to deliver the
opinions required hereby within such ten (10) Business Day period shall
constitute an “Event of Default” hereunder.
Section
18.30. Intentionally
Deleted.
Section
18.31. Securitization
Financials.
Borrower covenants and agrees that, upon Lender’s written request therefor in
connection with a Securitization, Borrower shall, at Lender’s sole cost and

laws and requirements for use in a public registration statement (which may
include up to three (3) years of historical audited financial
statements).
-98-
Section
18.32. Exculpation.
Notwithstanding anything herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary,
except as otherwise set forth in this Section 18.32 to the contrary, Lender
shall not enforce the liability and obligation of Borrower or (a) if Borrower is
a partnership, its constituent partners or any of their respective partners, (b)
if Borrower is a trust, its beneficiaries or any of their respective Partners
(as hereinafter defined), (c) if Borrower is a corporation, any of its
shareholders, directors, principals, officers or employees, or (d) if Borrower
is a limited liability company, any of its members, managers, officers or
directors (the Persons described in the foregoing clauses (a) - (d), as the case
may be, are hereinafter referred to as the “Partners”) to
perform and observe the obligations contained in this Security Instrument or any
of the other Loan Documents by any action or proceeding wherein a money judgment
shall be sought against Borrower or the Partners, except that Lender may bring a
foreclosure action, action for specific performance, or other appropriate action
or proceeding (including, without limitation, an action to obtain a deficiency
judgment) solely for the purpose of enabling Lender to realize upon (i)
Borrower’s interest in the Property, (ii) the Rent to the extent received by
Borrower (or received by its Partners) after the occurrence of an Event of
Default and not either delivered to Lender (or Lender’s agent) or applied to
ordinary and necessary expenses of owning and operating the Property (the
“Recourse
Distributions”) and
(iii) any other collateral given to Lender under the Loan Documents (the
collateral described in the foregoing clauses (i) - (iii) is hereinafter
referred to as the “Default
Collateral”);
provided,
however, that
any judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be enforceable against
Borrower or the Partners, as the case may be, only to the extent of any such
Default Collateral. The provisions of this Section shall not, however, (a)
impair the validity of the Debt evidenced by the Note or in any way affect or
impair the lien of this Security Instrument or any of the other Loan Documents
or the right of Lender to foreclose this Security Instrument following the
occurrence of an Event of Default; (b) impair the right of Lender to name
Borrower as a party defendant in any action or suit for judicial foreclosure and
sale under this Security Instrument; (c) affect the validity or enforceability
of the Note, this Security Instrument, or any of the other Loan Documents, or
impair the right of Lender to seek a personal judgment against the Guarantor;

impair the enforcement of the Assignment; (f) impair the right of Lender to
bring suit for a monetary judgment against Borrower with respect to any losses

material fact, any untrue statement of a material fact or omission to state a
material fact in the written materials and/or information provided to Lender or
any of its affiliates by or on behalf of Borrower, Guarantor or any of their
Affiliates in connection with this Security Instrument, the Note or the other
Loan Documents, and the foregoing provisions shall not modify, diminish or
discharge the liability of Borrower, Guarantor or any of their Affiliates with
respect to same; (g) impair the right of Lender to bring suit for a monetary

Section
18.36. Cooperation. (a)
Borrower covenants and agrees that in the event the Loan is to be included as an
asset of a Securitization, Borrower shall (a) gather any information reasonably
required by the Rating Agencies in connection with such a Securitization, (b) at
Lender’s request, meet with representatives of the Rating Agency to discuss the
business and operations of the Property, and (c) cooperate with the reasonable
requests of each Rating Agency and Lender in connection with all of the
foregoing as well as in connection with all other matters and the preparation of
any offering documents with respect thereof, including, without limitation,
entering into any amendments or modifications to this Security Instrument or to
any other Loan Document which may be requested by Lender to conform to Rating
Agency or market standards for a Securitization provided that no such
modification shall modify (a) the interest rate payable under the Note, (b) the
stated maturity of the Note, (c) the amortization of principal under the Note,
(d) Section 18.32 hereof, (e) any other material economic term of the Loan or
(f) any provision, the effect of which would materially increase Borrower’s
obligations or materially decrease Borrower’s rights under the Loan Documents.

incorporated into the offering documents for a Securitization. Lender and each
Rating Agency shall be entitled to rely on the information supplied by, or on
behalf of, Borrower and Borrower indemnifies and holds harmless the Indemnified
Parties, their Affiliates and each Person who controls such Persons within the
meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as same may be amended from time to time, for, from and
against any claims, demands, penalties, fines, liabilities, settlements,
damages, costs and expenses of whatever kind or nature, known or unknown,
contingent or otherwise, whether incurred or imposed within or outside the
judicial process, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and
disbursements (including, without limitation, reasonable attorney’s fees and

out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any
material fact contained in such information or arise out of or are based upon
the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be
stated in such information or necessary in order to make the statements in such
information, or in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not

Borrower shall cooperate at no cost to Borrower or Guarantor, with Lender and
its affiliates in connection with any such sale of the Loan by mortgage backed
pass through certificates, participations, securities or pari passu notes
evidencing whole or component interests therein through one of more public or
private offerings, including, but not limited to:
(i) separating
the Loan into two or more separate notes (or components that correspond to one
or more tranches of the certificates/securities created in a Securitization) or
participation interests. Such notes or components or participation interests may
be assigned different interest rates, so long as the weighted average of such
interest rates equals the interest rate on the Note. Additionally, Lender may
split the Loan into a senior/subordinated participation structure;
(ii) obtaining
ratings from two or more Rating Agencies;
(iii) making or
causing to be made reasonable changes or modifications to the loan
documentation, organizational documentation, opinion letters and other
documentation;

of the Loan and/or a reduction of the Loan Amount with the imposition of a
mezzanine loan in the corresponding amount to be reduced, which mezzanine loan
shall be secured by a pledge of ownership interests in the Borrower or the
members of Borrower. Such notes or components may be assigned different interest
rates, so long as the weighted average of such interest rates equals the
interest rate on the Note.
Section
18.37. Regulation
A/B.
(a) If
requested by Lender, Borrower shall furnish, or shall cause the applicable
tenant to furnish, to Lender financial data and/or financial statements in
accordance with Regulation AB (as defined herein) for any tenant of any Property
if, in connection with a securitization, Lender expects there to be, with
respect to such tenant or group of affiliated tenants, a concentration within
all of the mortgage loans included or expected to be included, as applicable, in
such securitization such that such tenant or group of affiliated tenants would
constitute a Significant Obligor (as defined herein); provided, however, that in
the event the related lease does not require the related tenant to provide the
foregoing information, Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts to
cause the applicable tenant to furnish such information.
(b) If, at
the time one or more Disclosure Documents are being prepared for a
securitization, Lender expects that Borrower alone or Borrower and one or more
affiliates of Borrower collectively, or the Property alone or the Property and
any other parcel(s) of real property, together with improvements thereon and
personal property related thereto, that is “related”, within the meaning of the
definition of Significant Obligor, to the Property (a “Related Property”)
collectively, will be a Significant Obligor, Borrower shall furnish to Lender
upon request (i) the selected financial data or, if applicable, net operating
income, required under Item 1112(b)(1) of Regulation AB and meeting the
requirements thereof, if Lender expects that the principal amount of the Loan,
together with any loans made to an affiliate of Borrower or secured by a Related
Property that is included in a securitization with the Loan (a “Related Loan”),
as of the cut-off date for such securitization may, or if the principal amount
of the Loan together with any Related Loans as of the cut-off date for such
securitization and at any time during which the Loan and any Related Loans are
included in a securitization does, equal or exceed ten percent (10%) (but less
than twenty percent (20%)) of the aggregate principal amount of all mortgage
loans included or expected to be included, as applicable, in the securitization
or (ii) the financial statements required under Item 1112(b)(2) of Regulation AB
and meeting the requirements thereof, if Lender expects that the principal
amount of the Loan together with any Related Loans as of the cut-off date for
such securitization may, or if the principal amount of the Loan together with
any Related Loans as of the cut-off date for such securitization and at any time
during which the Loan and any Related Loans are included in a securitization
does, equal or exceed twenty percent (20%) of the aggregate principal amount of
all mortgage loans included or expected to be included, as applicable, in the
securitization. Such financial data or financial statements shall be furnished
to Lender (A) within ten (10) Business Days after notice from Lender in
connection with the preparation of Disclosure Documents for the securitization,
(B) not later than thirty (30) days after the end of each fiscal quarter of
Borrower and (C) not later than seventy-five (75) days after the end of each
fiscal year of Borrower; provided, however, that Borrower shall not be obligated
to furnish financial data or financial statements pursuant to clauses (B) or (C)
of this sentence with respect to any period for which a filing pursuant to the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 in connection with or relating to the
securitization (an “Exchange Act Filing”) is not required. As used herein,
“Regulation AB” shall mean Regulation AB under the Securities Act of 1933 and
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (as amended). As used herein, “Disclosure
Document” shall mean a prospectus, prospectus supplement, private placement
memorandum, or similar offering memorandum or offering circular, in each case in
preliminary or final form, used to offer securities in connection with a
securitization. As used herein, “Significant Obligor” shall have the meaning set
forth in Item 1101(k) of Regulation AB.

18.38. Borrower
hereby requests that a copy of any notice of default and notice of sale made or
executed by Trustee pursuant to the provisions hereof be sent to Borrower at its

ARTICLE
XIX: CONCERNING
THE TRUSTEE.
Section
19.01. Certain
Rights.
With the
approval of Lender, Trustee shall have the right to take any and all of the
following actions: (i) to select, employ and consult with counsel (who may be,
but need not be, counsel for Lender) upon any matters arising hereunder,
including the preparation, execution and interpretation of the Loan Documents,
and shall be fully protected in relying as to legal matters on the advice of
counsel, (ii) to execute any of the trusts and powers hereof and to perform any
duty hereunder either directly or through his or her agents or attorneys, (iii)
to select and employ, in and about the execution of his or her duties hereunder,
suitable accountants, engineers and other experts, agents and attorneys-in-fact,
either corporate or individual, not regularly in the employ of Trustee (and
Trustee shall not be answerable for any act, default, negligence, or misconduct
of any such accountant, engineer or other expert, agent or attorney-in-fact, if
selected with reasonable care, or for any error of judgment or act done by
Trustee in good faith, or be otherwise responsible or accountable under any
circumstances whatsoever, except for Trustee’s gross negligence or bad faith),
and (iv) any and all other lawful action that Lender may instruct Trustee to
take to protect or enforce Lender’s rights hereunder. Trustee shall not be
personally liable in case of entry by Trustee, or anyone entering by virtue of
the powers herein granted to Trustee, upon the Property for debts contracted for
or liability or damages incurred in the management or operation of the Property.
Trustee shall have the right to rely on any instrument, document, or signature
authorizing or supporting any action taken or proposed to be taken by Trustee
hereunder, believed by Trustee in good faith to be genuine. Trustee shall be
entitled to reimbursement for expenses incurred by Trustee in the performance of
Trustee’s duties hereunder and to reasonable compensation for such of Trustee’s
services hereunder as shall be rendered. Borrower will, from time to time, pay
the compensation due to Trustee hereunder and reimburse Trustee for, and save
and hold Trustee harmless against, any and all liability and expenses which may
be incurred by Trustee in the performance of Trustee’s duties.
-103-
Section
19.02. Retention of
Money.
All
moneys received by Trustee shall, until used or applied as herein provided, be
held in trust for the purposes for which they were received, and shall be
segregated from any other moneys of Trustee.
Section
19.03. Successor
Trustees.
Trustee
may resign by the giving of notice of such resignation in writing to Lender. If
Trustee shall die, resign or become disqualified from acting in the execution of
this trust, or if, for any reason, Lender, in Lender's sole discretion and with
or without cause, shall prefer to appoint in accordance with the Nebraska Trust
Deeds Act a substitute trustee or successive substitute trustees to act instead
of the aforenamed Trustee, Lender shall have full power to appoint a substitute
trustee in succession who shall succeed to all the estates, rights, powers and
duties of the aforenamed Trustee. Such appointment may be executed by any
authorized agent of Lender, and if such Lender be a corporation and such
appointment be executed on its behalf by any officer of such corporation, such
appointment shall be conclusively presumed to be executed with authority and
shall be valid and sufficient without proof of any action by the board of
directors or any superior officer of the corporation. Borrower hereby ratifies
and confirms any and all acts which the aforenamed Trustee, or his or her
successor or successors in this trust, shall do lawfully by virtue hereof.
Section
19.04. Perfection of
Appointment.
Should
any deed, conveyance, or instrument of any nature be required from Borrower by
any Trustee or substitute Trustee to more fully and certainly vest in and
confirm to Trustee or substitute Trustee such estates, rights, powers, and
duties, then, upon request by Trustee or substitute trustee, any and all such
deeds, conveyances and instruments shall be made, executed, acknowledged, and
delivered and shall be caused to be recorded and/or filed by Borrower.
Section
19.05. Succession
Instruments.
Any
substitute trustee appointed pursuant to any of the provisions hereof shall,
without any further act, deed or conveyance, become vested with all the estates,
properties, rights, powers, and trusts of its, his or her predecessor in the
rights hereunder with like effect as if originally named as Trustee herein; but
nevertheless, upon the written request of Lender or of the substitute trustee,
the Trustee ceasing to act shall execute and deliver any instrument transferring
to such substitute trustee, upon the trusts herein expressed, all the estates,
properties, rights, powers, and trusts of the Trustee so ceasing to act, and
shall duly assign, transfer and deliver any of the property and moneys held by
such Trustee to the substitute trustee so appointed in such Trustee’s
place.
Section
19.06. No Representation by Trustee
or Lender.
By
accepting or approving anything required to be observed, performed, or fulfilled
or to be given to Trustee or Lender pursuant to the Loan Documents, including,
without limitation, any officer’s certificate, balance sheet, statement of
profit and loss or other financial statement, survey, appraisal or insurance
policy, neither Trustee nor Lender shall be deemed to have warranted, consented
to, or affirmed the sufficiency, legality, effectiveness or legal effect of the
same, or of any term, provision, or condition thereof, and such acceptance or
approval thereof shall not be or constitute any warranty or affirmation with
respect thereto by Trustee or Lender.
