Prohibition Against Termination or Modification In the event that Borrower enters into a Management Agreement in accordance with the terms hereof, Borrower shall not (i) surrender, terminate, cancel, modify, renew or extend the Management Agreement, (ii) enter into any other agreement relating to the management or operation of the Property with Manager or any other Person, (iii) consent to the assignment by the Manager of its interest under the Management Agreement, or (iv) waive or release any of its rights and remedies under the Management Agreement, in each case without the express consent of Lender, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, however, with respect to a new property manager such consent may be conditioned upon Borrower delivering a Rating Agency Confirmation from each applicable Rating Agency as to such new property manager and management agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, provided no Event of Default is continuing, the approval of Lender and the Rating Agencies shall not be required with respect to the appointment of an Unaffiliated Qualified Manager. If at any time Lender consents to the appointment of a new property manager or a Qualified Manager is appointed, such new property manager (including a Qualified Manager) and Borrower shall, as a condition of Lender’s consent, execute (a) a management agreement in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Lender, (b) a subordination of management agreement in a form reasonably acceptable to Lender and (c) deliver an updated non-consolidation opinion in form and substance, and from counsel, reasonably satisfactory to Lender and satisfactory to the Rating Agencies, if such Qualified Manager is an Affiliate of Borrower, Guarantor or Key Principal (the foregoing conditions set forth in clauses (a)-(c), the “New Manager Conditions”).
Additional Provisions Relating to Customer 6.1 Representations of Customer and Bank
Limitation of Benefits under Certain Circumstances If the payments and benefits pursuant to Section 12 of this Agreement, either alone or together with other payments and benefits which Executive has the right to receive from the Company and the Bank, would constitute a “parachute payment” under Section 280G of the Code, the payments and benefits pursuant to Section 12 shall be reduced or revised, in the manner determined by Executive, by the amount, if any, which is the minimum necessary to result in no portion of the payments and benefits under Section 12 being non-deductible to the Company and the Bank pursuant to Section 280G of the Code and subject to the excise tax imposed under Section 4999 of the Code. The determination of any reduction in the payments and benefits to be made pursuant to Section 12 shall be based upon the opinion of the Company and the Bank’s independent public accountants and paid for by the Company and the Bank. In the event that the Company, the Bank and/or Executive do not agree with the opinion of such counsel, (i) the Company and the Bank shall pay to Executive the maximum amount of payments and benefits pursuant to Section 12, as selected by Executive, which such opinion indicates there is a high probability do not result in any of such payments and benefits being non-deductible to the Company and the Bank and subject to the imposition of the excise tax imposed under Section 4999 of the Code and (ii) the Company and the Bank may request, and Executive shall have the right to demand that they request, a ruling from the IRS as to whether the disputed payments and benefits pursuant to Section 12 have such consequences. Any such request for a ruling from the IRS shall be promptly prepared and filed by the Company and the Bank, but in no event later than thirty (30) days from the date of the opinion of counsel referred to above, and shall be subject to Executive’s approval prior to filing, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Company, the Bank and Executive agree to be bound by any ruling received from the IRS and to make appropriate payments to each other to reflect any such rulings, together with interest at the applicable federal rate provided for in Section 7872(f)(2) of the Code. Nothing contained herein shall result in a reduction of any payments or benefits to which Executive may be entitled upon termination of employment other than pursuant to Section 12 hereof, or a reduction in the payments and benefits specified in Section 12 below zero.
FINAL PROVISIONS Clause 16 Non-compliance with the Clauses and termination
Certain Rules Relating to the Payment of Additional Amounts (a) Upon the request, and at the expense of the Borrower, each Lender and Agent to which the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount pursuant to Subsection 4.10 or 4.11, and any Participant in respect of whose participation such payment is required, shall reasonably afford the Borrower the opportunity to contest, and reasonably cooperate with the Borrower in contesting, the imposition of any Non-Excluded Tax giving rise to such payment; provided that (i) such Lender or Agent shall not be required to afford the Borrower the opportunity to so contest unless the Borrower shall have confirmed in writing to such Lender or Agent its obligation to pay such amounts pursuant to this Agreement and (ii) the Borrower shall reimburse such Lender or Agent for its reasonable attorneys’ and accountants’ fees and disbursements incurred in so cooperating with the Borrower in contesting the imposition of such Non-Excluded Tax; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing no Lender or Agent shall be required to afford the Borrower the opportunity to contest, or cooperate with the Borrower in contesting, the imposition of any Non-Excluded Taxes, if such Lender or Agent in its sole discretion in good faith determines that to do so would have an adverse effect on it.
