In connection with the delivery of the financial statements referred to in (i) and (ii) above, Borrower will also provide a compliance certificate in a form to be provided by Xxxxxx signed by an authorized officer stating that Borrower is in compliance with the Loan Documents and no default exists, or if any default exists, stating the nature and status thereof, and containing such other certifications as Lender may require.
b. Payments Hereunder. Subject to Sections 5 and 10.r. hereof, Borrower will make all payments of principal, interest, fees, and all other payments required hereunder, under this Note, and under any other agreements with Lender to which Borrower is a party, as and when due. The provisions of Section 5 and 10.r. hereof shall not be construed to relieve the Borrower of its obligations to pay principal, interest and all other amounts due from time to time hereunder.
c. Existence, Good Standing, and Compliance with Laws. Borrower will do or cause to be done all things necessary (i) to obtain and keep in full force and effect all corporate existence, rights, licenses, privileges, and franchises of Borrower necessary to the ownership of its property or the conduct of its business, and comply with all applicable present and future laws, ordinances, rules, regulations, orders and decrees of any Governmental Authority having or claiming jurisdiction over Borrower; and (ii) to maintain and protect the properties used or useful in the conduct of the operations of Borrower, in a prudent manner, including without limitation the maintenance at all times of such insurance upon its insurable property and operations as required by law or by subsection (e) below.
d. Taxes and Charges. Borrower will (or cause Tenant to) timely file all tax reports and pay and discharge all taxes, assessments and governmental charges or levies imposed upon Borrower,
–10–
or its income or profits or upon its properties or any part thereof, before the same shall be in default and prior to the date on which penalties attach thereto, as well as all lawful claims for labor, material, supplies or otherwise which, if unpaid, might become a lien or charge upon the properties or any part thereof of Borrower; provided, however, that Borrower shall not be required to pay and discharge or cause to be paid and discharged any such tax, assessment, charge, levy or claim so long as the validity or amount thereof shall be contested in good faith and by appropriate proceedings by Xxxxxxxx, as determined in the reasonable judgement of Lender, and Borrower shall have set aside on their books adequate reserve therefor; and provided further, that such deferment of payment is permissible only so long as Xxxxxxxx's title to, and its right to use, the Collateral is not adversely affected thereby and Lender's lien and priority on the Collateral are not adversely affected, altered or impaired thereby.
e. Insurance. Borrower will carry or cause to be carried adequate public liability, property, casualty, professional liability and business interruption/loss of rents insurance with responsible companies satisfactory to Lender in such amounts and against such risks as is customarily maintained by similar businesses and by owners of similar property in the same general area. Lender acknowledges that the insurance evidenced by the insurance certificates attached hereto as Exhibit A shall satisfy the requirements of this Section 10(e) and the requirements of Section 4(a) of the Mortgages.
f. General Information. Borrower will furnish to Lender such information as Lender may, from time to time, request with respect to the business or financial affairs of Borrower, and permit any officer, employee or agent of Lender to visit and inspect any of the properties (subject to the rights of Tenant under the Facility Leases), to examine the minute books, books of account and other records, including management letters prepared by Xxxxxxxx's auditors, of Borrower, and make copies thereof or extracts therefrom, and to discuss its and their business affairs, finances and accounts with, and be advised as to the same by, the accountants and officers of Borrower, all at such times and as often as Lender may reasonably require.
g. Maintenance of Property. Borrower will cause each Tenant to maintain, keep and preserve the Collateral and the Facilities in good repair, working order and condition and from time to time make all needful and proper repairs, renewals, replacements, betterments and improvements to the Collateral and the Facilities.
h. Notification of Events of Default and Adverse Developments. Borrower promptly will notify Lender upon obtaining actual knowledge of the occurrence of: (i) any Event of Default; (ii) any event which, with the giving of notice or lapse of time, or both, could constitute an Event of Default; (iii) any event, development or circumstance whereby the financial statements previously furnished to Lender fail in any material respect to present fairly, in accordance with GAAP, the financial condition and operational results of Borrower; (iv) any judicial, administrative or arbitration proceeding pending against Borrower, and any judicial or administrative proceeding known by Borrower to be threatened against it which, if adversely decided, could adversely affect its condition (financial or otherwise) or operations (present or prospective) or which may expose Borrower to uninsured liability of $50,000.00 or more; (v) any default claimed by any other creditor for Borrowed Money of Borrower other than Lender; (vi) any other development in the business or affairs of Borrower which may be adverse, (vii) any default or event of default under any of the Facility Leases; in each case describing the nature thereof and (in the case of notification under clauses (i) and (ii)) the action Borrower proposes to take with respect thereto.
i. Employee Benefit Plans. No employee benefit plan (a "Plan") subject to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA") and regulations issued pursuant to ERISA that is maintained by Borrower or under which Borrower could have any material liability under ERISA (i) has failed to meet minimum funding standards established in Section 302 of ERISA,
–11–
(ii) has failed to substantially comply with all applicable requirements of ERISA and of the Internal Revenue Code, including all applicable rulings and regulations thereunder, or (iii) has engaged in or been involved in a prohibited transaction (as defined in ERISA) under ERISA or under the Internal Revenue Code. Neither Borrower nor any member of a Controlled Group that includes Xxxxxxxx has not assumed, or received notice of a claim asserted against Borrower or another member of the Controlled Group for, withdrawal liability (as defined in the Multi-Employer Pension Plan Amendments Act of 1980, as amended) with respect to any multi-employer pension plan. Borrower has timely made when due all contributions with respect to any multi-employer pension plan in which it participates and no event has occurred triggering a material claim against Borrower for withdrawal liability with respect to any multi-employer pension plan in which Borrower participates.
j. Financial Records. Borrower shall keep current and accurate books of records and accounts in which full and correct entries will be made of all of its business transactions, and will reflect in its financial statements adequate accruals and appropriations to reserves, all in accordance with GAAP.
k. Places of Business. Borrower shall give thirty (30) days' prior written notice to Lender of any change in the location of any of its places of business, of the places where its records concerning its Accounts are kept, of the places where the Collateral is kept, or of the establishment of any new, or the discontinuance of any existing, places of business.
l. Business Conducted. Borrower shall continue in the business presently conducted by it using its best efforts to maintain its customers and goodwill. Borrower shall not engage, directly or indirectly, in any line of business substantially different from the business conducted by it immediately prior to the Closing Date, or engage in business or lines of business which are not reasonably related thereto.
m. Litigation and Other Proceedings. Upon obtaining actual knowledge thereof, Borrower shall give prompt notice to Lender of any threatened litigation, arbitration, or other proceeding before any Governmental Authority against or affecting Borrower if the amount claimed is more than $50,000.00.
n. Licensure; Medicaid/Medicare Cost Reports. If Borrower assumes operational control of either or both of the Facilities, Borrower will maintain all certificates of need, provider numbers and licenses necessary to conduct its business as currently conducted, and take any steps required to comply with any such new or additional requirements that may be imposed on providers of medical products and services. Otherwise, Borrower will cause Tenant to maintain, all certificates of need, provider numbers and licenses necessary to conduct its business as currently conducted, and take any steps required to comply with any such new or additional requirements that may be imposed on providers of medical products and services.
o. Visits and Inspections. Subject to the rights of Tenant under the Facility Leases, Xxxxxxxx agrees to permit representatives of Xxxxxx, from time to time, as often as may be reasonably requested, but, so long as no default has occurred, not more than four (4) times per year and only during normal business hours, to visit and inspect the properties of Borrower, and to inspect, audit and make extracts from its books and records, and discuss with its officers, its employees and its independent accountants, Xxxxxxxx's business, assets, liabilities, financial condition, business prospects and results of operations.
p. Further Assurances. Borrower will (or shall cause Tenant to) defend its title to the Collateral against all persons and will, upon request of the Lender, (i) furnish such further assurances of title as may reasonably be required by the Lender, (ii) deliver and execute or cause to be delivered and executed, in form and content satisfactory to the Lender, any financing
–12–
statements, notices, certificates of title, and other documents and pay the cost of filing or recording the same in all public offices deemed necessary by the Lender, as well as any recordation, documentary, or transfer tax required by law to be paid in connection with such filing or recording, and (iii) do such other acts as the Lender may reasonably request in order to perfect, preserve, maintain, or continue the perfection of the Lender's security interest in the Collateral and/or its priority.
q. Single Purpose Entity. Borrower will at all times continue to be a Single Purpose Entity (as hereinafter defined). Borrower will at all times continue to comply with the provisions of its articles of incorporation and its bylaws, and with all customary formalities regarding the existence of Borrower as a corporation. Borrower will at all times continue to accurately maintain its financial statements, accounting records and other corporate documents separate from those of any affiliate of Borrower and any other Person. Borrower will not at any time commingle its assets with those of any affiliate of Borrower or any other Person. Borrower at all times will continue to accurately maintain its own bank accounts and separate books of account. Borrower at all times will continue to pay its own liabilities from its own separate assets. Borrower will at all times continue to identify itself under Xxxxxxxx's own name and as a separate and distinct entity in all dealings with the public and other Persons. Borrower will not at any time identify itself as being a division or a part of any other entity. Borrower will not at any time identify any affiliate of Borrower as being a division or part of Borrower. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, provided no Event of Default has occurred more than two (2) times, the provisions of this Section shall not prohibit Borrower from transferring funds to LTC Properties after payment of its obligations to Lender.
r. Payment of Rent. Borrower shall at all times direct each Tenant to pay Minimum Rent (as defined in the Facility Leases) due to Borrower pursuant to the applicable Facility Lease directly to Lender in accordance with the provisions of the Subordination Agreement.
11. Negative Covenants.
Borrower covenants and agrees that until this Note shall be repaid in full:
a. Borrowing. Borrower will not create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any liability for borrowed money except: (i) indebtedness to Lender; (ii) indebtedness of Borrower secured by mortgages, encumbrances or liens expressly permitted by Xxxxxx; (iii) accounts payable to trade creditors and current operating expenses (other than for borrowed money) which are recognized in Borrower's accounting system and not aged more than one hundred twenty (120) days from the billing date or more than thirty (30) days from the due date, in each case incurred in the ordinary course of business and paid within such time period, unless the same are being contested in good faith and by appropriate and lawful proceedings, and Borrower shall have set aside such reserves, if any, with respect thereto as are required by GAAP and deemed adequate by Borrower and its independent accountants; and (iv) unsecured borrowings incurred in the ordinary course of its business and not exceeding $500,000 in the aggregate outstanding at any one time. Borrower will not make prepayments on any existing or future indebtedness for borrowed money in excess of $100,000 to any third person or entity (other than Lender, to the extent permitted by this Note or any subsequent agreement between Borrower and Lender).
b. Liens and Encumbrances. Borrower will not create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any mortgage, pledge, lien or other encumbrance of any kind (including the charge upon property purchased under a conditional sale or other title retention agreement) upon, or any security interest in, Xxxxxxxx's ownership interest in any of the Collateral, whether now owned or hereafter acquired.
–13–
c. Merger, Acquisition, or Sale of Assets. Borrower will not, without prior written notice to, and the prior written consent of Lender: (i) enter into any transaction of merger or consolidation; (ii) liquidate, wind-up or dissolve itself (or suffer any liquidation or dissolution); (iii) convey, sell, lease, sublease, transfer or otherwise dispose of, in one transaction or a series of transactions, any of its assets, or the capital stock of Borrower or any subsidiary of Borrower, whether now owned or hereafter acquired; or (iv) acquire by purchase or otherwise all or any substantial part of the business or assets of, or stock or other evidence of beneficial ownership of, any Person. Borrower shall not (a) create any new ownership interest in Borrower, or (b) transfer (i) any or all of the Mortgaged Property (as defined in the Mortgages), or any interest therein, or (ii) any ownership interest in Borrower (including any interest in the profits, losses or cash distributions in any way relating to the Mortgaged Property or of Borrower), or (iii) the beneficial interests of LTC Properties in Borrower which would result in LTC Properties owning less than fifty one percent of the total beneficial interests in Borrower.
d. Sale and Leaseback. Borrower will not, directly or indirectly, enter into any arrangement whereby Borrower sells or transfers all or any part of its assets and thereupon and within one year thereafter rents or leases the assets so sold or transferred without the prior written notice to, and the prior express written consent of, Lender, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.
e. Dividends, Distributions, and Management Fees. Borrower will not purchase, redeem or otherwise acquire for value any of its outstanding stock now or hereafter outstanding, or return any capital of its stockholders, or pay any management fees or fees of a similar nature to any person other than such amounts as may be approved by Lender from time to time. Following an Event of Default, Borrower will not make, declare or pay any dividends or distributions with respect to any of its stockholders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, provided no Event of Default has occurred more than two (2) times, the provisions of this Section shall not prohibit Borrower from transferring funds to LTC Properties after payment of its obligations to Lender.
f. Subsidiaries. Borrower does not have, and will not form, any subsidiary, or make any equity investment in or any loan in the nature of an equity investment to, any other person, without the prior written consent of Lender, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

Without the prior written consent of Lender, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, Borrower will not enter into any transaction, including without limitation the purchase, sale, or exchange of property, or the lending or giving of funds to any Affiliate or subsidiary, except in the ordinary course of business and pursuant to the reasonable requirements of Borrower's business and upon terms substantially the same and no less favorable to Borrower as it would obtain in a comparable arm's length transaction with any Person not an Affiliate or subsidiary, and so long as the transaction is not otherwise prohibited under this Note. Leases to Affiliates with rent payments greater than the debt payments due hereunder shall be deemed arms length transactions, provided, however, the entering into any lease agreement with respect to any of the Facilities shall be subject to Xxxxxx's consent. The term "Person" means an individual, partnership, corporation, trust, joint venture, joint stock company, limited liability company, association, unincorporated organization, governmental authority, or any other entity.
h. Change in Capital Structure. LTC Properties and Borrower agree that there shall occur no change in Borrower's capital structure as set forth in Section 9.p. hereof without the prior written consent of Lender, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Borrower and LTC Properties agree that LTC Properties shall not sell, transfer, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of any or all of the capital stock of the Borrower, it being understood by both parties that Xxxxxx would not agree to make the Loan without such agreement from both Borrower and LTC Properties.
–14–
i. Contracts and Agreements. Borrower will not become or be a party to any contract or agreement which would breach this Note, or breach any other instrument, agreement, or document to which Borrower is a party or by which it is or may be bound.
j. Compliance with ERISA. Borrower will not permit with respect to any Plan covered by Title IV of ERISA any Prohibited Transaction or any Reportable Event.
k. License. In the event that Borrower ever assumes operational control of either or both Facilities (rather than the Tenant), Borrower will not amend, alter, transfer, suspend or terminate such license in any material way, without the prior written consent of Lender.
l. Use of Lender's Name. Borrower will not use Xxxxxx's name (or the name of any of Xxxxxx's affiliates) in connection with any of its business operations. Borrower may disclose to third parties that Xxxxxxxx has a borrowing relationship with Xxxxxx. Nothing contained in this Note is intended to permit or authorize Borrower to make any contract on behalf of Xxxxxx.
m. Truth of Statements and Certificates. Borrower will not furnish to Lender any certificate or other document that contains any untrue statement of a material fact or that omits to state a material fact necessary to make it not misleading in light of the circumstances under which it was furnished.
n. Facility Leases. Borrower will not terminate, assign, amend, modify or declare a default under any of the Facility Leases without the prior written consent of Lender, which consent may be withheld in Xxxxxx's sole discretion; provided, however, Xxxxxx shall respond to Xxxxxxxx's written request for consent to any proposed action of Borrower with respect to the Facility Leases within fifteen (15) business days of Xxxxxx's receipt thereof, and failure by Xxxxxx to respond (whether in writing or verbally) within such time frame shall be construed as Xxxxxx's consent to Xxxxxxxx's request.
12. Events of Default. The following events are each an "Event of Default" under this Note:
a. Borrower fails to make any payment of principal when due or fails to make any payment of interest, fees or other amounts owed to or for the account of Lender under this Note and such payment remains unpaid for five (5) business days after written notice to Borrower and Tenant of such failure; or
b. Borrower has made any representations or warranties in this Note, the other Loan Documents, any financial statement delivered to Lender or otherwise in connection with this Note or the related transaction that contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits a material fact necessary to make the statements contained in this Note or in such document or financial statement not misleading; or
c.

–15–
Lease, Borrower shall have an additional cure period of ten (10) days to cure such default before such default shall constitute an Event of Default; or
d. Borrower shall (i) apply for, or consent in writing to, the appointment of a receiver, trustee or liquidator; or (ii) file a voluntary petition seeking relief under the Bankruptcy Code, or be unable, or admit in writing Borrower's inability, to pay their debts as they become due; or (iii) make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors; or (iv) file a petition or an answer seeking reorganization or an arrangement or a readjustment of debt with creditors, apply for, take advantage, permit or suffer to exist the commencement of any insolvency, bankruptcy, suspension of payments, reorganization, debt arrangement, liquidation, dissolution or similar event, under the law of the United States or of any state in which Borrower is a resident; or (v) file an answer admitting the material allegations of a petition filed against Borrower in any such bankruptcy, reorganization or insolvency case or proceeding or (vi) take any action authorizing, or in furtherance of, any of the foregoing; or

f. Any obligation of Borrower for the payment of borrowed money in excess of $100,000 in the aggregate is not paid when due or within any applicable grace period, or such obligation becomes or is declared to be due and payable before the expressed maturity of the obligation, or there shall have occurred an event that, with the giving of notice or lapse of time, or both, would cause any such obligation to become, or allow any such obligation to be declared to be, due and payable; or
g. One or more final judgments against Borrower or attachments against its ownership interest in its property not fully and unconditionally covered by insurance in excess of $100,000 in the aggregate, or any attachment against the Collateral or Borrower's ownership interest in the Facilities, shall be rendered by a court of record and shall remain unpaid, unstayed on appeal, undischarged, unbonded and undismissed for a period of twenty (20) days; or

k. There shall occur a default under either Lease Guaranty, or Tenant shall fail to pay all or any portion of Minimum Rent due under the applicable Facility Lease within the applicable cure period set forth therein.
13. Lender's Rights.
a. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender may, in addition to its rights and remedies set forth in Sections 6 and 7 above, proceed, to the extent permitted by law, to protect and enforce its rights either by suit in equity or by action at law, or both, whether for the specific performance of any covenant, condition or agreement contained in this Note or in aid of the exercise of any power granted in this Note, or proceed to enforce the payment of this Note or to enforce any other legal or equitable right of Lender, including any and all rights and remedies of Lender under the
–16–
Mortgages, the SNF Note, the SNF Mortgages, the Subordination Agreement and/or the other Loan Documents. No right or remedy in this Note, the other Loan Documents or in other agreement or instrument to the benefit of Lender is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and each and every such right or remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other right and remedy given under this Note or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if the outstanding Principal Sum, or any of the other obligations of Borrower to Lender shall not be paid when due, Lender shall not be required to resort to any particular security, right or remedy or to proceed in any particular order of priority, and Lender shall have the right at any time and from time to time, in any commercially reasonable manner and in any order, to enforce its security interests with respect to the Collateral, liens, rights and remedies, or any of them, as it deems appropriate in the circumstances, and apply the proceeds of any Collateral to such obligations of Borrower as it determines in its sole discretion.
b. If an Event of Default has occurred as provided above and Borrower has not paid the all amounts outstanding, including all principal, together with interest accrued on such amounts, upon demand by Lender, then Borrower shall pay to Lender interest on such outstanding amounts at a rate per annum equal to the Default Interest Rate from the date such outstanding amounts are due until the date this Note is paid in full. Borrower promises to pay all reasonable costs of collection, including reasonable attorneys' fees, if this Note is referred to an attorney for collection after the Event of Default.
14. No Defenses. Borrower's obligations under this Note shall not be subject to any set-off, counterclaim or defense to payment that Borrower now has or may have in the future.
15. No Waiver. No failure or delay on the part of Lender in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Note or the other Loan Documents, nor any course of dealing between Borrower and Lender, shall operate as a waiver of the right, power or privilege, nor shall a single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege preclude any other or further exercise of, or the exercise of any other, right, power or privilege.
16. Writing Required. No modification or waiver of any provisions of this Note or any other Loan Documents, and no consent to any departure by Borrower, shall in any event be effective, without respect to any course of dealing between the parties, unless the modification or waiver shall be in a writing executed by Xxxxxx and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No notice to or demand on Borrower in any case shall thereby entitle Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances.
17. Usury Limitation. Notwithstanding anything contained to the contrary in this Note, Xxxxxx shall never be entitled to receive, collect or apply as interest any amount in excess of the maximum rate of interest permitted to be charged by applicable law. If Xxxxxx receives, collects or applies as interest any such excess, the amount that would be excessive interest shall be applied to the reduction of the Principal Sum; and if the Principal Sum is paid in full, any remaining excess shall be paid to Borrower. In determining whether or not the interest paid or payable in any specific case exceeds the highest lawful rate, Lender and Borrower shall to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law: (i) characterize any non-principal payment as an expense, fee or premium rather than as interest; and (ii) "spread" the total amount of interest throughout the entire term of the obligation so that the interest rate is deemed to have been uniform throughout the entire term.
18. Notices. Any notice or demand given under this Note shall be given by delivering it, sending by telecopier (with a confirming copy by regular mail), or by mailing it by certified or registered mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, or sent by prepaid overnight courier service addressed to Borrower at: LTC Properties, Inc., 000 Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxx 0000, Xxxxxx, XX 00000, Attention: Xxxxx X.

19. Section Headings. The headings of the several paragraphs of this Note are inserted solely for convenience of reference and are not a part of and are not intended to govern, limit or aid in the construction of any term or provision.
20. Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or condition of this Note or the application of such term, provision, covenant or condition to any party or circumstance shall be found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be, to any extent, invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Note and the application of such term, provision, covenant, or condition to parties or circumstances other than those as to which it is held invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each term, provision, covenant or condition shall be valid and enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law. Upon determination that any such term, provision, covenant or condition is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, Lender may, but is not obligated to, advance funds to Borrower under this Note until Borrower and Lender amend this Note so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in a valid and enforceable manner.
21. Survival of Terms. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made in this Note or in any financial statements delivered pursuant to this Note shall survive Borrower's execution and delivery of this Note to Lender and shall continue in full force and effect so long as this Note or any other obligation under this Note shall be outstanding and unpaid or any other obligation of Borrower to Lender or its affiliates under this Note shall remain unperformed.
22. Indemnity. Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Lender, its partners, officers, agents and employees (collectively, "Indemnitee") from and against any liability, loss, cost, expense, claim, damage, suit, action or proceeding ever suffered or incurred by Lender (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) arising from Borrower's failure to observe, perform or discharge any of its covenants, obligations, agreements or duties under this Note or from the breach of any of the representations or warranties contained in this Note, unless caused solely by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Lender. In addition, Xxxxxxxx shall defend Indemnitee against and save it harmless from all claims of any Person with respect to the Collateral. Notwithstanding any contrary provision in this Agreement, the obligations of Borrower under this Section 22 shall survive the payment in full of the all obligations under this Note and the termination of this Note.

Schedule 1(f)
Definition of Net Operating Income and Debt Service Coverage Ratio
CALCULATION OF
NET OPERATING INCOME
"Net Operating Income" means annualized Revenue less Expenses.
"Revenue" means the lesser of (i) annualized Adjusted Actual Rent or (ii) annualized Monthly Effective Rent. In determining Revenue, the occupancy factor utilized shall be the lessor of (a) actual occupancy, or (b) an assumed ninety-three percent (93%) occupancy rate.
"Adjusted Actual Rent" means (a) all amounts collected from tenants of the Project for the most current three (3) months, excluding corporate apartment income, pet fees, redecorating fees and other income (unless specifically included below), percentage rents, nonrecurring income and non-property related income and income from tenants (i) that are thirty (30) or more days delinquent, (ii) that are in bankruptcy (even if current), (iii) non-residential tenants whose leases terminate within six (6) months (as adjusted for space re-leased upon terms acceptable to Lender in its sole discretion) and (iv) that have been delinquent four (4) or more times during the past twelve (12) months, and (b) other revenue not to exceed ten percent (10%) of the amounts included in clause (a) above for laundry, vending, parking and other occupancy payments (but excluding late fees and interest income) based upon collections for the previous twelve (12) months.
"Monthly Effective Rent" means an amount equal to (x) total rent due over the term of the leases less any payments or concessions which Lender, in its sole discretion, deems to be a rent concession, divided by (y) the total number of months in the leases.
"Expenses" means all actual and customary operating expenses on a stabilized accrual basis for the previous twelve (12) month period (as reasonably adjusted by Lender), including, without limitation: (i) recurring expenses (e.g., tenant improvements, leasing commissions, carpeting replacement, appliance and drapery replacement and such other as solely determined by Lender), (ii) real estate taxes, (iii) management fees (whether paid or not) in an amount not less than five percent (5%) of effective gross income, and (iv) a replacement reserve (whether reserved or not) of not less than Three Hundred and No/100 Dollars ($300.00) per unit.
Net Operating Income, and the elements thereof set forth above, shall be calculated in accordance with GAAP (to the extent GAAP is applicable to such calculations). The determination by Lender of the amount of Net Operating Income shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.
DEBT SERVICE COVERAGE RATIO
"Debt Service Coverage Ratio" means the ratio of rent and other payments then being paid to Borrower pursuant to each Facility Lease to Debt Service, as hereinafter defined. "Debt Service" means the aggregate amount of all scheduled principal, interest and other payments due to Lender by Borrower pursuant to the provisions of this Note and all other Loan Documents calculated as of the date of the requested advance of the Earnout Amount.
