Franchise Agreements The Franchise Agreements are in full force and effect. There is no default thereunder by any party thereto and no circumstance, condition or event has occurred that, with the passage of time and/or giving of notice, would constitute a default thereunder or entitle Franchisor to terminate any Franchise Agreement. All franchise fees, reservation fees, royalties, marketing fees and other sums and payable due under the Franchise Agreements have been paid in full or are current. A true, correct and complete copy of the Franchise Agreements, together with all amendments and ancillary agreements or side letters related thereto, have been delivered to Lender. The Loan, and the encumbrance of the Collateral as security for the Loan, will not cause Mortgage Borrower to violate any financial covenants contained in any Franchise Agreement.

In the event that Lender fails to grant or withhold its approval and consent to such matter within such ten (10) Business Day period (and, in the case of a withholding of consent, stating the grounds therefor in reasonable detail), then, so long as no Event of Default is continuing, Lender’s approval and consent shall be deemed to have been granted.

No investigation or review by any Governmental Entity with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is pending or, to the Knowledge of the Company, threatened, nor has any Governmental Entity indicated an intention to conduct the same, except for such investigations or reviews the outcome of which would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be likely to have a Company Material Adverse Effect.
