Common use of Specified Consents Clause in Contracts

Specified Consents. (a) Section 6.13 of the Titanium Disclosure Letter sets forth a list of certain consents and waivers with respect to the Transactions that may be required from certain lenders under loan documents of Titanium or any of its Subsidiaries (the “Loan Consents”) and from certain lessors under ground leases of Titanium or its Subsidiaries (the “Ground Lease Consents”) or joint venture partners under joint venture or partnership documents of Titanium or any of its Subsidiaries (the “JV Consents”, and together with the Loan Consents and Ground Lease Consents, the “Specified Consents”). Titanium shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, use reasonable best efforts to obtain each of the Specified Consents promptly after the date of this Agreement, except as may otherwise be agreed to between Silver and Titanium. Silver shall cooperate and assist Titanium in connection with soliciting and obtaining any Specified Consents, including the preparation and delivery of any information relating to Silver or any of its Affiliates and all other information required under the applicable loan, ground lease or joint venture documents and as may be reasonably requested by any such joint venture partner, lessor, lender or any loan servicer on behalf of any lender. Titanium shall use reasonable best efforts to keep Silver apprised of the content and status of any communications with, and communications from, any lessor, joint venture partner, lender or any loan servicer with respect to the Specified Consents. Without limiting the foregoing, Titanium shall (i) give Silver a reasonable opportunity (and in any event no less than twenty-four (24) hours) to review and comment on all material materials or documents with respect to the Specified Consents and Titanium shall consider the reasonable comments of Silver thereon in good faith, and (ii) use reasonable best efforts to keep Silver apprised of and, to the extent reasonably practicable, provide Representatives of Silver reasonable opportunity to participate in, any material meeting or scheduled discussion with any lender or any loan servicer with respect to the Loan Consents. All out-of-pocket consent/assumption fees and expenses, including out-of-pocket legal fees for joint venture partners, lessors, lenders and/or servicers (to the extent such fees and expenses are payable pursuant to the applicable joint venture, ground lease or loan document), incurred in connection with seeking the Specified Consents, shall be borne by Titanium OP or its Subsidiaries. Titanium is authorized for itself and on behalf of its Subsidiaries to enter into amendments or modifications of the applicable loan, ground lease or joint venture documents as Titanium deems necessary to obtain such Specified Consents, subject to the terms of Section 6.13(b). (b) With respect to the Loan Consents, without the prior consent of Silver (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed): (i) neither Titanium nor its Representatives on its behalf shall agree to amend, modify, supplement or waive the terms and conditions of the outstanding indebtedness or guarantees thereof in order to change any of the parties subject to the obligations of such indebtedness or guarantees of Titanium or its Subsidiaries (other than as a result of the Transactions) or materially increase any recourse obligations of a Subsidiary or the guarantor or replacement guarantor following the Closing, and (ii) neither Titanium nor its Subsidiaries shall make any material financial or other covenant modifications or establish any material reserves, cash sweep requirements or cash traps in connection with obtaining the Loan Consents. With respect to any JV Consents and Ground Lease Consents, without the prior consent of Silver (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), (x) neither Titanium nor its Representatives on its behalf shall agree to amend, modify, supplement or waive the terms and conditions of the applicable ground lease or joint venture documents in a manner that is material and adverse to Titanium and its Subsidiaries or Silver and its Subsidiaries, and (y) neither Titanium nor its Subsidiaries shall make any material payments other than those which are regularly scheduled or required or are legal or administrative fees. (c) In the event any Loan Consent is not obtained prior to the date that is 100 days after the date of this Agreement, Titanium and Titanium OP shall, and shall cause their Subsidiaries to, use reasonable best efforts to attempt to secure a binding commitment or other similar documentation reasonably acceptable to Silver that would allow Titanium or its Subsidiaries to, at the Closing, prepay, or defease the applicable financing and replace such financing on commercially reasonable, market terms, which shall be reasonably acceptable to Silver. In the event that any Loan Consent is not obtained and Titanium or its Subsidiaries have not prepaid or defeased the applicable financing for which such Loan Consent was required to be obtained (or obtained a binding commitment or other similar documentation reasonably acceptable to Silver from a lender to effect such prepayment or defeasance on the Closing Date) within 130 days after the date of this Agreement or by the Titanium Shareholders Meeting (whichever is earlier), Silver shall have the right, but not the obligation, to provide replacement financing to the applicable Subsidiary of Titanium on commercially reasonable market economic terms with respect to the loan for which the consent has not been obtained and which has not otherwise been refinanced by Titanium or its Subsidiaries (or for which such a binding commitment or other documentation has not been obtained). Any replacement financing provided by Silver shall be in an amount sufficient for the Subsidiary of Titanium to prepay or defease such original loan and shall be on substantially similar loan documents as were executed in connection with the borrowing of the original loan (including mortgages, indemnities, guaranties, pledges, other collateral agreements, opinions and other customary loan deliverables and diligence materials); provided, however, that any replacement financing made by Silver or its Subsidiaries with respect to an unsecured loan may be made on a secured basis, subject to the next sentence. Titanium and Titanium OP shall, and shall cause their Subsidiaries to, reasonably cooperate with Silver to enable Silver to provide any such applicable replacement financing on a secured basis, including by facilitating the creation and perfection of Liens (including mortgages and equity pledges) required by Silver; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Titanium and its Subsidiaries will not be required to agree to any secured loan or facilitate any Liens that would violate the terms of any Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness that is being repaid) or joint venture agreement to which Titanium or its Subsidiaries are a party.
