ARTICLE 2
GENERAL TERMS

Section 2.1. The Loan

Subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Lender hereby agrees to make its Ratable Share of the Loan and Borrower hereby agrees to accept the Loan on the Closing Date.

Section 2.2. Disbursement to Borrower

Borrower may request and receive only one borrowing in respect of the Loan and any amount borrowed and repaid in respect of the Loan may not be reborrowed.

Section 2.3. The Note, Mortgage and Loan Documents

The Loan shall be evidenced by the Note and this Agreement and secured by the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents.

Section 2.4. Interest Rate

(a) General. Interest on the outstanding principal balance of the Loan shall accrue from the Closing Date up to but excluding the Maturity Date at the Interest Rate. Except as otherwise set forth herein or in the other Loan Documents, interest shall be paid in arrears.

(b) Default Rate. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, interest on the outstanding principal balance of the Loan and, to the extent permitted by

-30-

law, overdue interest and other amounts due in respect of the Loan shall accrue at a rate per annum equal to the Default Rate and all references in the Note, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents to the “Interest Rate” shall be deemed to refer to the Default Rate. Interest at the Default Rate shall be computed from the occurrence of the Event of Default until the earlier of (i) the actual receipt and collection of the Debt (or that portion thereof that is then due) and (ii) the cure of such Event of Default. To the extent permitted by applicable law, interest at the Default Rate shall be added to the Debt, shall itself accrue interest at the same rate as the Loan and shall be secured by the Mortgage. This paragraph shall not be construed as an agreement or privilege to extend the date of the payment of the Debt, nor as a waiver of any other right or remedy accruing to Lender by reason of the occurrence of any Event of Default; the acceptance of any payment from Borrower shall not be deemed to cure or constitute a waiver of any Event of Default; and Lender retains its rights under the Note, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to accelerate and to continue to demand payment of the Debt upon the occurrence of and during the continuance of any Event of Default, despite any payment by Borrower to Lender.

(c) Interest Calculation. Interest shall be computed based on the daily rate produced assuming a three hundred sixty (360) day year, multiplied by the actual number of days elapsed during each Interest Accrual Period. Borrower understands and acknowledges that such interest accrual method results in more interest accruing on the Loan than if either a thirty (30) day month and a three hundred sixty (360) day year or the actual number of days and a three hundred sixty five (365) day year were used to compute the accrual of interest on the Loan.

(d) Usury Savings. This Agreement and the Note are subject to the express condition that at no time shall Borrower be obligated or required to pay interest on the principal balance of the Loan at a rate which could subject Lender to either civil or criminal liability as a result of being in excess of the maximum nonusurious interest rate, if any, that at any time or from time to time may be contracted for, taken, reserved, charged or received on the indebtedness evidenced by the Note and as provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents, under the laws of such state or states whose laws are held by any court of competent jurisdiction to govern the interest rate provisions of the Loan (such rate, the “Maximum Legal Rate”). If, by the terms of the Note, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, Borrower is at any time required or obligated to pay interest on the principal balance due on the Loan at a rate in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate, the Interest Rate or the Default Rate, as the case may be, shall be deemed to be immediately reduced to the Maximum Legal Rate and all previous payments in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate shall be deemed to have been payments in reduction of principal and not on account of the interest due hereunder. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Lender for the use, forbearance, or detention of the sums due under the Loan, shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the full stated term of the Loan until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Loan does not exceed the Maximum Legal Rate of interest from time to time in effect and applicable to the Loan for so long as the Loan is outstanding.

Section 2.5. Loan Payments

(c) Application of Payments. Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, all monthly payments made as scheduled pursuant to this Agreement and the Note shall be applied first to the payment of interest computed at the Interest Rate, and the balance toward the reduction of the principal amount of the Debt. All voluntary and involuntary prepayments on the Debt shall be applied, to the extent thereof, to accrued but unpaid interest on the amount prepaid, to the outstanding principal amount, and any other sums due and unpaid to the Lender in connection with the Loan, in such manner and order as Lender may elect in its sole and absolute discretion, including, but not limited to, application to principal installments in inverse order of maturity. Following the occurrence of an Event of Default, any payment made on the Debt shall be applied to accrued but unpaid interest, late charges, accrued fees, the unpaid principal amount of the Debt, and any other sums due and unpaid to Lender in connection with the Loan, in such manner and order as Lender may elect in its sole and absolute discretion.

(d) Method and Place of Payment.

(i) Each payment by Borrower hereunder shall be made to Lender at its offices or at such other place as Lender may designate from time to time in writing.

(ii) All payments and prepayments under this Agreement and the Note shall be made to Lender not later than 2:00 P.M. Charlotte, North Carolina time.

(iv) All payments made by Borrower hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall be made irrespective of, and without any deduction for, any setoff, defense or counterclaims.

(v) Remittances in payment of any part of the indebtedness other than in the required amount in immediately available U.S. funds shall not, regardless of any receipt or credit issued therefor, constitute payment until the required amount is actually received by the holder hereof in immediately available U.S. funds and shall be made and accepted subject to the condition that any check or draft may be handled for collection in accordance with the practices of the collecting bank or banks.

(e) Late Payment Charge. If any principal, interest or other payment due under the Loan Documents (other than the outstanding principal amount of the Loan due on the Maturity

-32-

Date) is not paid by Borrower on or prior to the date the same is due (after taking into account the payment date convention set forth in Section 2.5(d)(iii) hereof) (or such greater period, if any, required by applicable Legal Requirements), Borrower shall pay to Lender upon demand an amount equal to the lesser of four percent (4%) of such unpaid sum or the maximum amount permitted by applicable Legal Requirements in order to defray the expense incurred by Lender in handling and processing such delinquent payment and to compensate Lender for the loss of the use of such delinquent payment. Any such amount shall be secured by the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents to the extent permitted by applicable law.

(f) If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA and if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), then such Lender shall deliver to Borrower at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Borrower such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Borrower as may be necessary for Borrower to comply with its obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment (and solely for purposes of this clause (b), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement and any fiscal or regulatory legislation, rules or practices adopted pursuant to any intergovernmental agreement entered into in connection with FATCA).

Section 2.6. Loan Prepayments

(a) Voluntary. Except as otherwise expressly permitted under this Agreement, no voluntary prepayments, whether in whole or in part, of the Loan or any other amount at any time due and owing under this Agreement can be made by Borrower or any other Person without the express prior written consent of Lender and Lender shall have no obligation to accept any prepayment except when made in accordance with the terms hereof. Following the Open Period Start Date, Borrower may, at its option and upon giving Lender not less than thirty (30) (and not more than ninety (90)) days prior written notice, prepay the Loan in whole (or in part in accordance with the terms of this Agreement) on any date without payment of any penalty (such notice being revocable by Borrower by notice to Lender not later than two (2) Business Days prior to the scheduled prepayment date provided Borrower pays all of Lender’s reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with the notice of prepayment and revocation). Any prepayment received by Lender on a day other than a Payment Date shall include the amount of interest which would have accrued thereon if such prepayment was made on the next Payment Date. Notwithstanding any provisions of this Article 2 to the contrary, following the expiration of the Yield Maintenance Lockout Period, Borrower may prepay the Loan in whole, but not in part, upon the satisfaction of the following conditions:

(i) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing (or Lender, in its sole and absolute discretion, elects to waive such Event of Default solely for purposes of this Section 2.6(a));

-33-

(ii) not less than thirty (30) (but not more than ninety (90)) days prior written notice shall be given to Lender specifying a date on which the prepayment shall occur (the “Prepayment Date”). Such notice may be revoked by Borrower by notice to Lender not later than two (2) Business Days prior to the scheduled prepayment date provided Borrower pays all of Lender’s reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with the notice of prepayment and revocation;

(iii) the Prepayment Date shall be a Payment Date or any other Business Day provided Borrower pays to Lender, together with the prepayment and any other amounts due hereunder, interest through the end of the Interest Accrual Period in which such prepayment occurs;

(iv) Borrower has paid to Lender all accrued and unpaid interest on the Loan through and including the Prepayment Date together with all other sums due under the Note, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; and

(v) Borrower has paid to Lender a prepayment premium in an amount equal to Yield Maintenance.

(b) Mandatory. Borrower shall prepay the Loan in an amount equal to all Net Proceeds which, pursuant to the provisions of Section 8.4(c) hereof, Lender elects to retain and apply toward the reduction of the principal amount of the Debt. Any such prepayment shall be held by Lender and applied on the next Payment Date. Borrower shall not be required to pay any prepayment premium or Yield Maintenance in connection with any prepayment made pursuant to this Section 2.6(b).

(c) After Event of Default. If, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender shall accelerate the Debt and Borrower thereafter tenders payment of all or any part of the Debt, or if all or any portion of the Debt is recovered by Lender after such Event of Default, such payment shall be deemed an attempt to circumvent the prohibition against prepayment set forth in this Agreement and Borrower shall pay to Lender, in addition to the Debt, or portion thereof then being prepaid or satisfied, (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued thereon through the end of the month in which payment is tendered if such payment is not made on a Payment Date, and (ii) an amount equal to the greater of (A) three percent (3%) of the portion of the principal balance of the Debt, and (B) Yield Maintenance.

Section 2.7. Release of an Individual Property. Following the expiration of the Yield Maintenance Lockout Period, provided that no Event of Default is then continuing, Borrower may cause the release of one or more Individual Properties (each a “Property Release” and the Individual Property that is subject of such release is hereinafter referred to as the “Release Property”) from the Lien of the respective Mortgage to which such Borrower is a party and the other Loan Documents and the release of the Individual Borrower (which owns the applicable Release Property) from all obligations under the Loan Documents (other than those expressly stated to survive), upon the satisfaction of each of the following conditions precedent:

(a) not less than thirty (30) (but not more than ninety (90)) days prior written notice shall be given to Lender identifying the Release Property and specifying a date on which

-34-

it desires to release such Release Property (the “Release Date”); provided, however, that Borrower shall have the right to cancel or extend (by no more than thirty (30) days) such notice by providing Lender with notice of cancellation or extension not less than ten (10) days prior to the scheduled Release Date, provided that Borrower shall pay all of Lender’s costs and expenses incurred as a result of such cancellation or extension;

(b) all sums due under this Agreement, the Note and under the other Loan Documents up to the Release Date, including, without limitation, all fees, costs and expenses incurred by Lender and its agents in connection with such release (including, without limitation, reasonable out-of-pocket legal fees and actual out-of-pocket expenses for the review and preparation of any release documents and of the other materials described in Section 2.7(d) below and any related documentation, and any servicing fees, Rating Agency fees or other costs related to such release), shall be paid in full on or prior to the Release Date;

(c) Borrower shall prepay the Loan in an amount equal to the Release Amount for such Release Property (together with the payment of the applicable Yield Maintenance Premium on or prior to the Open Period Start Date);

(d) any prepayment received by Lender on a day other than a Payment Date shall include the amount of interest which would have accrued thereon if such prepayment was made on the next Payment Date;

(e) the Release Date shall be a Payment Date or any other Business Day provided Borrower pays to Lender, together with the prepayment and any other amounts due hereunder, interest through the end of the Interest Accrual Period in which such Release Date occurs;

(f) Lender shall have received evidence demonstrating that after giving effect to such Property Release, each remaining Borrower shall remain a “single purpose entity” in accordance with the provisions of Article 6 hereof;

(g) Borrower shall submit to Lender, not less than ten (10) Business Days prior to the Release Date, a release of Lien of the applicable Mortgage on the Release Property (and related Loan Documents) or, if elected by Borrower, assignment of the applicable Loan Documents as provided below (and release of all other related Loan Documents) for each Individual Property for execution by Lender. If Borrower elects to have Lender assign any Mortgage, Lender shall reasonably cooperate with Borrower to split and sever the applicable Loan Documents (if required) and take other reasonable steps necessary to assign the applicable Loan Documents as set forth in Section 2.11 hereof, each in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Lender, such that separate notes and mortgages with respect to only the applicable Borrower and the Release Property in the amount of the applicable Allocated Loan Amount for such Release Property is assigned to the new lender, with the remaining Borrowers and Individual Properties released from the assigned portion of the Loan. Each such release or assignment (as applicable) (i) shall be in a form appropriate in the jurisdiction in which the Release Property is located and (ii) shall be reasonably satisfactory to Lender. In addition, Borrower shall provide all other documentation Lender reasonably requires to be delivered by Borrower in connection with such release, together with a certificate executed by an authorized officer of Borrower certifying that such documentation

-35-

(i) is in compliance with all Legal Requirements, (ii) will not impair or otherwise adversely affect the Liens and other rights of Lender under the Loan Documents not being released (or as to the parties to the Loan Documents and Properties subject to the Loan Documents not being released) and (iii) that the terms and conditions of this Section 2.7 have been satisfied with respect to such release;

(h) After giving effect to such release or assignment (as applicable) (including the amount prepaid in clause (c) above), the Debt Yield for the Individual Properties that remain subject to the Lien of the Mortgage shall not be less than the greater of (i) the Closing Date Debt Yield, and (ii) the Debt Yield for the Individual Properties immediately prior to such release;

(i) Simultaneously with the Property Release, Borrower shall convey fee simple title to the applicable Release Property to a Person other than Borrower or any of its Affiliates pursuant to an arm’s length sale; provided however, if at a Release Property a Tenant has vacated its premises (or provided notice to Borrower of its intent to vacate its premises), has cancelled or terminated its Lease (or has provided notice of its intent to do so), or an event has occurred with respect to the Release Property such that with the passage of time would result in a Material Adverse Effect, the applicable Borrower may remain the owner thereof or such Borrower may convey to an Affiliate of Borrower (and, in either such case, Borrower shall be released from the Loan) and shall not be required to convey pursuant to an arm’s length sale, so long as (i) the Release Amount with respect to such Property Release shall be equal to one hundred twenty percent (120%) of the Allocated Loan Amount for the applicable Individual Property and (ii) the aggregate Allocated Loan Amounts for all Released Properties (whether in one more separate Property Releases) during the term of the Loan shall not exceed $56,250,000.00;

(j) Lender shall have received written certification from Borrower that (A) the requirements set forth in this Section 2.7 have been satisfied and (B) such Property Release shall not have a Material Adverse Effect.

(k) Intentionally omitted;

(l) Borrower shall pay all reasonable third party costs, taxes and expenses incurred with respect to the Property Release including Lender’s reasonable attorney fees and all fees and premiums to be paid to the title company for any escrow services and insurance coverage issued in connection with the Property Release as contemplated by these provisions (including, without limitation, all recording charges, filing fees, taxes or other expenses payable in connection therewith and all costs and expenses, if any, of the Rating Agencies incurred with respect to such release) and Borrower shall reimburse Lender and any servicer for any additional actual out-of-pocket costs and expenses Lender and/or such servicer incur arising from such Property Release (including, without limitation, any splitting and severance of the Notes and/or Mortgage), it being agreed that Borrower shall be responsible for the payment of all such costs and expenses whether or not the proposed release or assignment (as applicable) of such Release Property actually occurs; and

(m) If any portion of the Loan is in a REMIC Trust, in the event that, immediately after giving effect to the release and the prepayment of principal pursuant to this Section 2.7, the

-36-

LTV Ratio of the Individual Properties remaining subject to the Lien of the Loan Documents is greater than one hundred twenty-five percent (125%), notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the outstanding principal balance of the Loan must be paid down by an amount such that the LTV Ratio is no more than one hundred twenty-five percent (125%).

No Borrower is in default or violation of any order, writ, injunction, decree or demand of any Governmental Authority which would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and Borrower has received no written notice of any such default or violation. There has not been committed by any Borrower or, to Borrower’s Knowledge, any other Person in occupancy of or involved with the operation or use of any Individual Property, any act or omission affording any Governmental Authority the right of forfeiture as against any Individual Property or any part thereof or any monies paid in performance of Borrower’s obligations under any of the Loan Documents.

There has been no material adverse change in any condition, fact, circumstance or event that would make any such information inaccurate, incomplete or otherwise misleading in any material respect or that would be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect. Borrower has disclosed to Lender all material facts that could cause any information provided to Lender or any representation or warranty made in any of the Loan Documents concerning Borrower, any SPE Component Entity Guarantor, Manager, or the Properties, to be materially misleading and reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower, at its own expense, may contest by appropriate legal proceeding, promptly initiated and conducted in good faith and with due diligence, the amount or validity or application in whole or in part of any Property Taxes or Other Charges, provided that notice is provided to Lender (unless in connection with a contest by Borrower as to Taxes or Other Charges in the ordinary course of business or if such contest is by a Tenant and such Tenant has such right under its Lease), and provided each of the following is satisfied: (i) no Event of Default is continuing; (ii) such proceeding shall be permitted under and be conducted in accordance with the provisions of any other instrument to which Borrower is subject and shall not constitute a default thereunder and such proceeding shall be conducted in accordance with all applicable Legal Requirements; (iii) neither any Individual Property nor any part thereof or direct or indirect interest therein will be in danger of being sold, forfeited, terminated, canceled or lost; (iv) Borrower shall promptly upon final determination thereof pay the amount of any such Property Taxes or Other Charges, together with all costs, interest and penalties which may be payable in connection therewith; (v) such proceeding shall suspend the collection of such contested Property Taxes or Other Charges from such Individual Property; (vi) Borrower shall furnish such security as may be required in the proceeding, or if no such security has been furnished in the proceeding, Borrower shall furnish such reserve deposits as may be requested by Lender, to ensure the payment of any such Property Taxes or Other Charges, together with all interest and penalties thereon (unless Borrower has paid all of the Property Taxes or Other Charges under protest); (vii) failure to pay such Property Taxes or Other Charges will not subject Borrower or Lender to any civil or criminal liability; (viii) such contest is not reasonably expected to have and does not have a Material Adverse Effect; and (ix) Borrower shall, upon request by Lender, give Lender prompt notice of the status of such proceedings and/or confirmation of the continuing satisfaction of the conditions set forth in clauses (i) through (viii) of this Section 5.4(b).

(d) All items requiring the certification of Borrower pursuant to this Section 5.11(d) shall, except where Borrower is an individual, require a certificate executed by an authorized officer of Borrower or the general partner or managing member of Borrower, as applicable, and shall contain a statement by Borrower as to whether there exists, to Borrower’s knowledge, an Event of Default under the Loan Documents, and if an Event of Default exists, the nature thereof, the period of time it has existed and the action then being taken to remedy the same.

(b) Borrower shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to deliver to Lender, within a reasonable time after request, duly executed estoppel certificates from any one or more Tenants as required by Lender in form and substance as the estoppel certificate attached hereto as Exhibit 5.12 or such other form of estoppel as required by such Tenant’s Lease, provided however, that so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower shall not be required to deliver such certificate from any such Tenant more frequently than one (1) time in any calendar year.

Section 5.13. Leasing Matters

(a) Borrower may enter into a proposed Lease (including the renewal or extension of an existing Lease (a “Renewal Lease”)) that is not a Major Lease without the prior written consent of Lender; provided such proposed Lease or Renewal Lease (i) provides for rental rates and terms comparable to the then effective existing local market rates and terms (taking into account the type and creditworthiness of the tenant, the length of the term including any renewals, and the location and size of the premises covered thereby) as of the date such Lease is executed by Borrower (unless, in the case of a Renewal Lease, the rent payable during such renewal, or a formula or other method to compute such rent, is provided for in the original Lease), (ii) is an arm’s‑length transaction with a bona fide, independent third party tenant, (iii) does not contain any terms which would reasonably be expected to have or do have a Material Adverse Effect, (iv) is subject and subordinate to the applicable Mortgage and the Tenant thereunder agrees to attorn to Lender and any purchaser at a foreclosure sale, which may be conditioned upon Lender’s obligation to recognize and not disturb such Tenant, (v) does not contain any option, offer, right of first refusal, right of first offer or other similar right to acquire all or any portion of any Individual Property, unless subject to a subordination to the Mortgage and such rights are not applicable at the time of a foreclosure sale, (vi) has a base term of (A) more than three (3) years and (B) less than fifteen (15) years including options to renew, (vii) has no rent, credits, free rents or concessions granted thereunder other than those which are reasonable and customary and comparable to existing local market terms,, and (viii) is written on the standard form of lease approved by Lender (the “Standard Form of Lease”) (it being acknowledged by Lender that the form of Lease delivered in connection with the closing of the Loan is approved) with such customary modifications as would not reasonably be expected to have nor does have a Material Adverse Effect. Each Major Lease and all other proposed Leases which do not satisfy the requirements set forth in this subsection (each a “Required Approval Lease”) shall be subject to the prior approval of Lender, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided however, to the extent that the Deemed Approval Requirements are fully satisfied in connection with any Borrower request for Lender consent under this Section 5.13(a) and Lender thereafter fails to respond, Lender’s approval shall be deemed given with respect to the matter for which approval was requested. Borrower shall promptly deliver to Lender copies of all Leases which are entered into pursuant to this subsection together with

-59-

Borrower’s certification that it has satisfied all of the conditions of this Section. Borrower shall pay the actual out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) associated with Lender or its counsel’s review of any Lease for which Lender’s consent may be required under this Section 5.13.

(b) Borrower shall (i) use commercially reasonable efforts to observe and perform all the obligations imposed upon the landlord under the Leases in all material respects and shall not do or permit to be done anything to result in a Material Adverse Effect; (ii) promptly send copies to Lender of all written notices of material default which Borrower shall send or receive thereunder; (iii) use commercially reasonable efforts to enforce all of the material terms, covenants and conditions contained in the Leases upon the part of the tenant thereunder to be observed or performed; (iv) not collect any Rents more than one (1) month in advance (except security deposits shall not be deemed Rents collected in advance); (v) hold all security deposits in accordance with the terms of the applicable Lease and Legal Requirements; (vi) not execute any assignment of the landlord’s interest in any of the Leases or the Rents except as contemplated by the Loan Documents; and (vi) not consent to any assignment of or subletting under any Leases not in accordance with their terms, without the prior written consent of Lender, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided however, to the extent that the Deemed Approval Requirements are fully satisfied in connection with any Borrower request for Lender consent under this Section 5.13(b) and Lender thereafter fails to respond, Lender’s approval shall be deemed given with respect to the matter for which approval was requested.

(c) Borrower may, without the prior written consent of Lender, amend, modify or waive the provisions of or terminate, reduce Rents or accept a surrender of space under, or shorten the term of, any Lease which is not a Major Lease (including any guaranty, letter of credit or other credit support with respect thereto) provided that (i) such action (taking into account, in the case of a termination, reduction in rent, surrender of space or shortening of term, the planned alternative use of the affected space) is not reasonably expected to have and does not have a Material Adverse Effect, (ii) such action is in the normal course of business and in a manner which is consistent with sound and customary leasing and management practices for similar properties in the community in which applicable Individual Property is located, and (iii) such amendment, modification, waiver, termination, rent reduction, space surrender or term shortening, is otherwise in compliance with the requirements of this Section 5.13 and any subordination agreement binding upon Lender with respect to such Lease. A termination of a Lease with a tenant who is in monetary default beyond applicable notice and grace periods shall not be considered an action which has a Material Adverse Effect. Borrower may terminate a Major Lease with a tenant who is in default beyond applicable notice and grace periods without the prior written notice or approval of Lender provided no Cash Sweep Period is continuing. Any amendment, modification, waiver, termination, rent reduction, space surrender or term shortening which does not satisfy the requirements set forth in this subsection shall be subject to the prior written approval of Lender (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) (each, a “Lease Modification”), at Borrower’s expense; provided however, to the extent that the Deemed Approval Requirements are fully satisfied in connection with any Borrower request for Lender consent under this Section 5.13(c) and Lender thereafter fails to respond, Lender’s approval shall be deemed given with respect to the matter for which approval was requested, except that, under no circumstances shall Lender’s approval be deemed to apply to the cancellation or termination

-60-

of a Lease, the reduction of Rents (unless such reduction is in connection with an extension of the Lease consistent with market conditions), the acceptance of a surrender of space, the shortening of the term of a Lease or a modification of a Lease that is not commercially reasonable. Borrower shall promptly deliver to Lender copies of amendments, modifications and waivers which are entered into pursuant to this subsection together with Borrower’s certification that it has satisfied all of the conditions of this subsection.

(d) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Borrower shall not, without the prior written consent of Lender, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, enter into, renew, extend, amend, modify, waive any provisions of, terminate, reduce Rents under, accept a surrender of space under, or shorten the term of any Major Lease; provided however, to the extent that the Deemed Approval Requirements are fully satisfied in connection with any Borrower request for Lender consent under this Section 5.13(d) and Lender thereafter fails to respond, Lender’s approval shall be deemed given with respect to the matter for which approval was requested, except that, under no circumstances shall Lender’s approval be deemed to apply to the cancellation or termination of a Lease, the reduction of Rents (unless such reduction is in connection with an extension of the Lease consistent with market conditions), the acceptance of a surrender of space, the shortening of the term of a Lease or a modification of a Lease that is not commercially reasonable.

(a) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Borrower shall not, without the prior written consent of Lender, enter into, renew, extend, amend, modify, waive any provisions of, terminate, reduce Rents under, accept a surrender of space under, or shorten the term of any Lease during a Cash Sweep Period.

(b) The Lender or its Servicer shall not charge an amount greater than $7,500 in connection with any Lease approval or greater than $2,500 with respect to a requested subordination non-disturbance agreement (in both instances, including reasonable fees and disbursements of Lender’s outside counsel). The request for Lender to execute a subordination non-disturbance agreement shall not give Lender a right of approval of the Lease that it does not otherwise have hereunder.

Section 5.14. Property Management

(a) Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (i)  diligently perform and observe, in all material respects, all of the terms, covenants and conditions required to be performed and observed by it under the Management Agreement and use commercially reasonable efforts to do all things necessary to preserve and to keep unimpaired its material rights thereunder; (ii) promptly notify Lender of any default under the Management Agreement of which it is aware; (iii) promptly deliver to Lender a copy of any written notice of default received by Borrower under the Management Agreement; (iv) promptly give notice to Lender of any notice or information that Borrower receives which indicates that Manager is terminating the Management Agreement or that Manager is otherwise discontinuing its management of any Individual Property; (v) promptly enforce the performance and observance of all of the covenants required to be performed and observed by Manager under the Management Agreement in a commercially reasonable manner.

-61-

(b) If at any time, (i) Manager shall become insolvent or a debtor in a bankruptcy proceeding; (ii) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; (iii) a default has occurred and is continuing beyond any applicable cure period under the Management Agreement, or (iv) Manager has engaged in gross negligence, fraud, willful misconduct or misappropriation of funds, Borrower shall, at the request of Lender, terminate the Management Agreement upon thirty (30) days prior notice to Manager and replace Manager with a Qualified Manager on terms and conditions satisfactory to Lender, it being understood and agreed that the management fee for such replacement manager shall not exceed then prevailing market rates.

(c) Manager may enter into sub-management agreements (and may modify and terminate each such agreement) at each Individual Property without notice to Lender or Lender approval so long as no Individual Borrower is a party to any such sub-management agreement and all obligations thereunder are solely between Manager and such sub-manager.

(d) Borrower shall not, without the prior written consent of Lender (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) except as provided in the Management Agreement in the event of a default by the Manager thereunder: (i) surrender, terminate or cancel, or consent to the surrender, termination or cancellation of, the Management Agreement or replace Manager or enter into any other management agreement with respect to any Individual Property; (ii) consent to the assignment by Manager of its interest under the Management Agreement except to a Qualified Manager; (iii) reduce or consent to the reduction of the term of the Management Agreement; (iv) increase in any material respect, or consent to the increase of the amount of any management fees under the Management Agreement; or (v) otherwise modify, change, supplement, alter or amend, or waive or release any of the terms and conditions under, the Management Agreement in any material respect. In the event that Borrower replaces Manager at any time during the term of Loan pursuant to this subsection, such Manager shall be deemed to be a Qualified Manager. To the extent that the Deemed Approval Requirements are fully satisfied in connection with any Borrower request for Lender consent under this Section 5.14(d) (other than a request under clause (ii) or clause (iv) hereof (if such increase shall exceed 3.0% of effective gross income)) and Lender thereafter fails to respond, Lender’s approval shall be deemed given with respect to the matter for which approval was requested.

Section 5.15. Liens

Borrower shall not, without the prior written consent of Lender, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien on any portion of any Individual Property or permit any such action to be taken, except Permitted Encumbrances provided, that for the avoidance of doubt, any Tenant at an Individual Property shall have the right to permit Liens on such Tenant’s merchandise, trade fixtures, furnishings, equipment and items of personal property in connection with the financing of such merchandise, trade fixtures, furnishings, equipment and items of personal property by Tenant. Borrower, at its own expense, may contest by appropriate legal proceeding, promptly initiated and conducted in good faith and with due diligence, any involuntary Lien affecting the Property, provided that (i) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; (ii) such proceeding shall be permitted under and be conducted in accordance with the provisions of any other instrument to which Borrower or the Property is subject and shall not constitute a default thereunder; (iii) neither the Property, any

-62-

part thereof or interest therein, any of the Tenants or occupants thereof, nor Borrower shall be affected in any material adverse way as a result of such proceeding; (iv) Borrower shall have bonded-off such Lien or insured over such Lien with title insurance; (v) Borrower shall furnish such security as may be required in the proceeding, or if no such security has been furnished in the proceeding, Borrower shall furnish such reserve deposits as may be requested by Lender (not to exceed 110% of the amount being protested), to ensure the payment necessary to remove and release any such Lien, together with all interest and penalties thereon (unless Borrower has paid such amounts under protest); (vi) failure to pay such amounts will not subject Borrower or Lender to any civil or criminal liability; (vii) such contest is not reasonably expected to have and does not have a Material Adverse Effect; and (viii) Borrower shall, upon request by Lender, give Lender prompt written notice of the status of such proceedings and/or confirmation of the continuing satisfaction of the conditions set forth in clauses (i) through (vii) of this Section 5.15. Lender may pay over any such cash deposit or part thereof held by Lender to the claimant entitled thereto at any time when, in the reasonable judgment of Lender, the entitlement of such claimant is established or any Individual Property (or part thereof or interest therein) shall be in danger of being sold, forfeited, terminated, canceled or lost or there shall be any danger of the Lien of the Mortgage being primed by any related Lien.

Section 5.16. Debt Cancellation

Borrower shall not cancel or otherwise forgive or release any material claim or debt (other than termination of Leases in accordance herewith or in accordance with the terms of such Leases) owed to Borrower by any Person, except for adequate consideration and in the ordinary course of Borrower’s business.

Section 5.18. ERISA

(a) Borrower shall not engage in any transaction which would cause any obligation, or action taken or to be taken, hereunder (or the exercise by Lender of any of its rights under the Note, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents) to be a non‑exempt (under a statutory or administrative class exemption) prohibited transaction under ERISA.

(b) Borrower shall deliver to Lender such certifications or other evidence from time to time throughout the term of the Loan, as requested by Lender in its sole discretion, that (i) Borrower is not and does not maintain an “employee benefit plan” as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA, which is subject to Title I of ERISA, or a “governmental plan” within the meaning of Section 3(32) of ERISA; (ii) Borrower is not subject to state statutes regulating investments of, or

Section 5.20. Reciprocal Easement Agreements

Borrower shall not enter into, terminate or modify any REA without Lender’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

Any action initiated by or brought against Member or Special Member under any Creditors Rights Laws shall not cause Member or Special Member to cease to be a member of the Company and upon the occurrence of such an event, the existence of the Company shall

-70-

continue without dissolution. The LLC Agreement shall also provide that each of Member and Special Member waives any right it might have to agree in writing to dissolve the Company upon the occurrence of any action initiated by or brought against Member or Special Member under any Creditors Rights Laws, or the occurrence of an event that causes Member or Special Member to cease to be a member of the Company.

Section 7.6. Replacement Guarantor. To the extent that Guarantor fails to continue to satisfy the net worth requirement under the Guaranty, no such failure shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder if Guarantor is replaced in accordance with this Section 7.6. Borrower shall be permitted to substitute a replacement guarantor (a “Guarantor Substitution”) and no Event of Default shall be deemed to have occurred hereunder, provided that each of the following terms and conditions are satisfied: (a)  within ten (10) days after such breach or violation, Borrower delivers to Lender notice of its intent to substitute such Guarantor and, concurrently therewith, gives Lender all such information concerning the proposed substitute guarantor as Lender may reasonably require, including, without limitation, certified financial statements detailing assets and liabilities; (b) the replacement guarantor is a Satisfactory Replacement Guarantor; (c) within thirty (30) days after such breach or violation, such Satisfactory Replacement Guarantor (i) assumes the obligations of Guarantor under the Guaranty and the Environmental Indemnity for events or conditions occurring prior to, as of and after the Guarantor Substitution or (ii) executes and delivers to Lender a replacement guaranty and a replacement environmental indemnity in each case in form and substance the same as the Guaranty and the Environmental Indemnity, respectively, and otherwise reasonably acceptable to Lender, for events or conditions occurring prior to, as of and after the Guarantor Substitution; (d) concurrently with such assumption or execution and delivery (i) such Satisfactory Replacement Guarantor delivers to Lender a spousal consent in form and substance acceptable to Lender, as and to the extent applicable, and (ii) each of Borrower, the remaining Guarantor and/or such Satisfactory Replacement Guarantor, as applicable, affirms each of their respective obligations under the Loan Documents; (e) Borrower delivers to Lender a Rating Agency Confirmation with respect to such Guarantor Substitution; (f) if required by Lender or the Rating Agencies, Borrower delivers to Lender an opinion from counsel, and in form and substance, in each case reasonably acceptable to Lender and acceptable to the Rating Agencies in their sole discretion stating, among other things, (g) that the Guaranty and the Environmental Indemnity (or the replacement guaranty

-84-

and environmental indemnity, as the case may be) are enforceable against such Satisfactory Replacement Guarantor in accordance with their terms and (ii) that any REMIC Trust formed pursuant to a Securitization will not fail to maintain its status as a “real estate mortgage investment conduit” within the meaning of Section 860D of the Code or be subject to tax as a result of such Substitution; and (h) if required by Lender or the Rating Agencies, delivery of a New Non Consolidation Opinion.

(i) insurance with respect to the Improvements and the Personal Property providing coverage for losses sustained by fire and other risks and hazards covered by a standard extended coverage insurance policy providing “special” form coverage (A) in an amount equal to not less than one hundred percent (100%) of the full insurable value written on a replacement cost basis, which for purposes of this Agreement shall mean actual replacement value (exclusive of costs of excavations, foundations, underground utilities and footings) with no deduction for depreciation; (B) containing either an agreed amount endorsement with respect to the Improvements and Personal Property or a waiver of all co‑insurance provisions; (C) providing for no “all other perils” deductible in excess of the greater of $100,000 or five percent (5%) of underwritten net cash flow as determined by Lender for all such insurance coverage; (D) insuring against at least those risks and hazards that are commonly insured against under a “special causes of loss” form of policy, as the same shall exist on the date hereof (including, without limitation, windstorm and “named storm” coverage), together with any increase in the scope of coverage provided under such form after the date hereof; (E)  with loss payable to Lender; and (F) if any of the Improvements or the use of any Individual Property shall at any time constitute legal non‑conforming structures or uses, providing coverage for Operation of Building Laws, Demolition Costs and Increased Cost of Construction Endorsements and containing an “Ordinance or Law Coverage” or “Enforcement” endorsement;

(ii) commercial general liability insurance against claims for personal injury, bodily injury, death or property damage occurring upon, in or about any Individual Property (including “dram shop” or other liquor liability coverage if alcoholic beverages are dispensed at any Individual Property), with such insurance (A) to be on the so‑called “occurrence” form with a general aggregate limit of not less than $2,000,000 and a per occurrence limit of not less than $1,000,000; (B) to continue at not less than the aforesaid limit until required to be changed by Lender in writing by reason of changed economic conditions making such protection inadequate; (C) to cover at least the following hazards: (1) premises and operations; (2) products and completed operations; (3) independent contractors; and (4) contractual liability covering, to the maximum extent permitted by law, Borrower’s obligation to indemnify Lender as required under this Agreement; and (D) naming Lender as additional insured;

-85-

(iii) loss of rents or business interruption insurance, as applicable, (A) with loss payable to Lender; (B) covering all risks required to be covered by the insurance provided for in subsections (i) and (iv) through (vii); and (C) which provides that after the physical loss to the Improvements and Personal Property occurs, the loss of rents or income, as applicable, will be insured until completion of Restoration or the expiration of twenty-four (24) months, whichever first occurs, and notwithstanding that the policy may expire prior to the end of such period; and (D) which contains an extended period of indemnity endorsement which provides that after the physical loss to the Improvements and Personal Property has been repaired, the continued loss of income will be insured until such income either returns to the same level it was at prior to the loss, or the expiration of twelve (12) months from the date that each Individual Property is repaired or replaced and operations are resumed, whichever first occurs, and notwithstanding that the policy may expire prior to the end of such period. The amount of such loss of rents or business interruption insurance, as applicable, shall be determined prior to the date hereof and at least once each year thereafter based on Lender’s reasonable estimate of the net operating income from each Individual Property for the succeeding period of coverage as required above. All proceeds payable to Lender pursuant to this subsection shall be held by Lender and shall be applied to the obligations secured by the Loan Documents from time to time due and payable hereunder and under the Note; provided, however, that nothing herein contained shall be deemed to relieve Borrower of its obligations to pay the obligations secured by the Loan Documents on the respective dates of payment provided for in the Note, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents except to the extent such amounts are actually paid out of the proceeds of such loss of rents or business interruption insurance, as applicable;

(iv) if any portion of the Improvements is currently or at any time in the future located in a “special flood hazard area” designated by the Federal Emergency Management Agency, flood hazard insurance covering building and contents in an amount equal to the maximum amount of such insurance available under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973 or the National Flood Insurance Reform Act of 1994, as each may be amended, together with such “excess flood” insurance naming Lender as loss payee in such amount and with such deductible as Lender may reasonably require;

(v) if any Individual Property is located in an area with a high degree of seismic risk as determined by Lender, and the probable maximum loss (“PML”) as determined by Lender in the event of an earthquake would exceed 20% of the full replacement cost of the Improvements, earthquake insurance in form and substance satisfactory to Lender in an amount not less than one hundred percent (100%) of the PML or such other amount as Lender may require, subject to a deductible not to exceed 5% of the insurable value at time of loss; with such PML being based on a 475-year return period, exposure period of 50 years and a 10% probability of exceedance, provided that such earthquake insurance shall be on terms consistent with the special causes of loss form required under subsection (i) above;

(x) the insurance required under this Section 8.1(a) above shall cover perils of terrorism and acts of terrorism and Borrower shall maintain insurance for loss resulting from perils and acts of terrorism on terms (including amounts) consistent with those required under Section 8.1(a) above at all times during the term of the Loan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, whether or not the Terrorism Risk Insurance Act of 2002, as extended and modified by the Terrorism Risk Insurance Program Reauthorization Act of 2007 (as the same may be further modified, amended, or extended, “TRIPRA”) or subsequent statute, extension, or reauthorization is in effect, Borrower shall be required to carry terrorism insurance throughout the term of the Loan as required by the preceding sentence; provided, however, if TRIPRA (or such subsequent statute, extension or reauthorization) is not in effect Borrower shall not be required to pay annual premiums in excess of the TC Cap (defined below) in order to obtain the terrorism coverage (but Borrower shall be obligated to purchase the maximum amount of terrorism coverage available with funds equal to the TC Cap). As used above, “TC Cap” shall mean an amount equal to two (2) times the aggregate premium for a separate “Special Form” or “All Risks” policy or equivalent and business interruption/rental loss policy insuring only the Property on a stand-alone basis at the time that any terrorism coverage is excluded from any Policy; and

(xi) such additional insurance policies and coverage, and in such amounts, (A) as may be required pursuant to any and all agreements, declarations, covenants, and/or other arrangements to which Borrower is a party or to which Borrower or any Individual Property is subject, including, without limitation, any declarations of covenants, conditions and restrictions or similar covenants and/or restrictions affecting any Individual Property, franchise agreements, licenses or leases, and (B) as Lender from time to time may reasonably request against such other insurable hazards (including, but not limited to, sinkhole, mine subsidence, mold, spores or fungus) which at the time are commonly insured against for property similar to the applicable Individual Property located in or around the region in which such Individual Property is located.

-87-

(b) All insurance provided for in Section 8.1(a) shall be obtained under valid and enforceable policies (collectively, the “Policies” or in the singular, the “Policy”) meeting the requirements of Section 8.1(a) and shall otherwise be acceptable to Lender as to amounts, forms, deductibles, loss payees and insureds. The Policies shall be issued by financially sound and responsible insurance companies authorized to do business in the State and having a financial strength rating of at least “A” and a financial size category of at least “X” from Xxxxxx X. Best Company, Inc. and a claims paying ability and financial strength rating of at least “A” or better by S&P (and the equivalent ratings for Xxxxx’x, Fitch and DBRS to the extent each such Rating Agency rates the insurance company and is rating the Securities) or such other ratings approved by Lender, provided, however, for Policies issued by more than one insurance company, (A) if four (4) or fewer insurance companies issue the Policies in the first layer of coverage, then at least seventy-five percent (75%) of the insured amount shall be provided by insurance companies with a claims paying ability rating of “A” or better by S&P (and the equivalent ratings by Xxxxx’x, Fitch and DBRS to the extent each such Rating Agency rates the insurance company and is rating the Securities), with no carrier below “BBB” or (B) if five (5) or more insurance companies issue the Policies in the first layer of coverage, then at least sixty percent (60%) of the insured amount shall be provided by insurance companies with a claims paying ability rating of “A” or better by S&P (and the equivalent ratings by Xxxxx’x, Fitch and DBRS to the extent each such Rating Agency rates the insurance company and is rating the Securities), with no carrier below “BBB”. To the extent such Policies are not available as of the Closing Date, Borrower shall deliver to Lender prior to the Closing Date an Xxxxx 28 or similar certificate of insurance evidencing the coverages and amounts required hereunder and, upon request of Lender as soon as available after the Closing Date, complete copies of all Policies. Not less than ten (10) days prior to the expiration dates of any insurance coverage in place with respect to any Individual Property, Borrower shall deliver to Lender an Xxxxx 28 or similar certificate, accompanied by evidence satisfactory to Lender of payment of the premiums due in connection therewith (the “Insurance Premiums”), and, as soon as available thereafter, complete copies of all renewal Policies.

(c) Any Policy may be in the form of a blanket insurance policy, provided that such policy shall provide the same protection as would a separate Policy insuring only the applicable Individual Property in compliance with the provisions of Section 8.1(a) hereof; provided, however, any blanket insurance policy that does not specifically allocate to any Individual Property the amount of coverage from time to time required hereunder shall be subject to Lender’s reasonable approval after taking into account, among other things, the amount, location, number, type and size of properties covered by such blanket insurance policy.

(d) All Policies provided for or contemplated by Section 8.1(a) shall name the Borrower as a named insured and (i) other than the coverage referenced in clause (a)(viii) above, name Lender as the additional insured, as its interests may appear, and (ii) other than the coverage referenced in clauses (a)(ii), (viii) and (ix) above, contain a standard non‑contributory mortgagee clause in favor of Lender providing that the loss thereunder shall be payable to Lender.

(e) All Policies provided for in Section 8.1(a) shall contain clauses or endorsements to the effect that:

-88-

(i) no act or negligence of Borrower, or anyone acting for Borrower, or of any Tenant or other occupant, or failure to comply with the provisions of any Policy, which might otherwise result in a forfeiture of the insurance or any part thereof, shall in any way affect the validity or enforceability of the insurance insofar as Lender is concerned;

(ii) the Policies shall not be canceled without at least thirty (30) days’ (or in the case of non-payment of Insurance Premiums, ten (10) days’) prior written notice to Lender and any other party named therein as an additional insured;

(iii) the issuers thereof shall give written notice to Lender if the Policies have not been renewed ten (10) days prior to its expiration; and

(iv) Lender shall not be liable for any Insurance Premiums thereon or subject to any assessments thereunder.

(f) If at any time Lender is not in receipt of written evidence that all insurance required hereunder is in full force and effect, Lender shall have the right, without notice to Borrower, to take such action as Lender deems necessary to protect its interest in each Individual Property, including, without limitation, obtaining such insurance coverage as Lender in its sole discretion deems appropriate. All premiums incurred by Lender in connection with such action or in obtaining such insurance and keeping it in effect shall be paid by Borrower to Lender upon demand and, until paid, shall be secured by the Mortgage and shall bear interest at the Default Rate.

Section 8.2. Casualty

If any Individual Property shall be damaged or destroyed, in whole or in part, by fire or other casualty (a “Casualty”), Borrower shall give to Lender prompt notice of such damage reasonably anticipated to be in excess of the Restoration Threshold, and shall promptly commence and diligently prosecute the Restoration in accordance with Section 8.4. Borrower shall pay all costs of such Restoration whether or not such costs are covered by insurance. Lender may, but shall not be obligated to, make proof of loss if not made promptly by Borrower. Borrower shall adjust all claims for Insurance Proceeds that are in amounts less than the Restoration Threshold and Lender shall have the right to approve any adjustment of claims for Insurance Proceeds in amounts equal to or in excess of the Restoration Threshold; provided, however, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Lender shall have the exclusive right to participate in the adjustment of claims for Insurance Proceeds. Borrower shall cooperate with Lender in obtaining for Lender the benefits of any Insurance Proceeds lawfully or equitably payable in connection with any Individual Property and Borrower shall reimburse Lender for any actual out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Lender in connection therewith, including without limitation, reasonable out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees.

Section 8.3. Condemnation

Borrower shall promptly give Lender notice of the actual or threatened commencement of any proceeding for the Condemnation of any Individual Property of which Borrower has knowledge and shall deliver to Lender copies of any and all documents served in connection with such proceedings. Lender may participate in any such proceedings, and Borrower

-89-

shall from time to time deliver to Lender all documents reasonably requested by it to permit such participation. Borrower shall, at its expense, diligently prosecute any such proceedings, and shall consult with Lender, its attorneys and experts, and cooperate with them in the carrying on or defense of any such proceedings. Notwithstanding any taking by any public or quasi‑public authority through Condemnation or otherwise (including but not limited to any transfer made in lieu of or in anticipation of the exercise of such taking), Borrower shall continue to pay the Debt at the time and in the manner provided for its payment in the Note and in this Agreement and the Debt shall not be reduced until any Award shall have been actually received and applied by Lender, after the deduction of expenses of collection, to the reduction or discharge of the Debt. Lender shall not be limited to the interest paid on the Award by the condemning authority but shall be entitled to receive out of the Award interest at the rate or rates provided herein or in the Note. If any Individual Property or any portion thereof is taken by a condemning authority, Borrower shall promptly commence and diligently prosecute the Restoration and otherwise comply with the provisions of Section 8.4, whether or not Lender makes any Net Proceeds available pursuant to Section 8.4. If any Individual Property is sold, through foreclosure or otherwise, prior to the receipt by Lender of the Award, Lender shall have the right, whether or not a deficiency judgment on the Note shall have been sought, recovered or denied, to receive the Award, or a portion thereof sufficient to pay the Debt.

Section 8.4. Restoration

The following provisions shall apply in connection with the Restoration of any Individual Property; provided, however, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 8.4, from and after the occurrence of a Casualty or Condemnation where the Net Proceeds or the cost of completing the Restoration is greater than the Restoration Threshold, if (i) the REA or any Major Lease requires Borrower to repair and restore the Property after such Casualty of Condemnation, no default (beyond any applicable notice and/or grace periods) shall have occurred and be continuing under the subject REA or the subject Major Lease(s) and (iii) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, then Lender shall disburse the Net Proceeds in accordance with the disbursement provisions specified in Section 8.4(b)(ii)-(vii) hereof (without Borrower having to satisfy the conditions specified in Section 8.4(b)(i) hereof) to facilitate Borrower’s compliance therewith:

(a) If the Net Proceeds shall be less than the Restoration Threshold and the costs of completing the Restoration shall be less than the Restoration Threshold, the Net Proceeds will be disbursed by Lender to Borrower upon receipt of Borrower’s written undertaking to expeditiously commence and to satisfactorily complete with due diligence the Restoration in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(b) If the Net Proceeds are equal to or greater than the Restoration Threshold or the costs of completing the Restoration are equal to or greater than the Restoration Threshold, Lender shall make the Net Proceeds available for the Restoration subject to the conditions of and in accordance with the provisions of this Section 8.4. The term “Net Proceeds” for purposes of this Section 8.4 shall mean: (i) the net amount of all insurance proceeds received by Lender as a result of a Casualty (excluding insurance proceeds from rent loss, liability or workers’ compensation coverage), after deduction of its reasonable costs and expenses (including, but not limited to,

-90-

(i) Except to the extent the Net Proceeds must be applied toward Restoration pursuant to the terms of a Major Lease or REA, the Net Proceeds shall be made available to Borrower for Restoration provided that each of the following conditions are met:

(A) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing;

(B) (1) in the event the Net Proceeds are Insurance Proceeds, less than thirty percent (30%) of the total floor area of the Improvements on the applicable Individual Property has been damaged, destroyed or rendered unusable as a result of a Casualty and the amount of damage does not exceed thirty percent (30%) of the applicable Individual Property’s fair market value (as reasonably determined by Lender) immediately prior to the occurrence of such Casualty, or (2) in the event the Net Proceeds are Condemnation Proceeds, less than ten percent (10%) of the land constituting the applicable Individual Property is taken, such land is located along the perimeter or periphery of the applicable Individual Property, and less than fifteen percent (15%) of the aggregate floor area of the Improvements is taken and the taking does not exceed fifteen percent (15%) of the applicable Individual Property’s fair market value immediately prior to the occurrence of such taking;

(D) Borrower shall commence the Restoration as soon as reasonably practicable (but in no event later than sixty (60) days after such Casualty or Condemnation, whichever the case may be, occurs) and shall diligently pursue the same to satisfactory completion; provided, that for the purposes of this Subsection (D), the commencement of plans and specifications for Restoration shall be deemed commencement of Restoration, provided that Borrower thereafter diligently continues to proceed to complete such plans and specifications;

-91-

(F) Lender shall be satisfied that the Restoration will be completed on or before the earliest to occur of (1) six (6) months prior to the Maturity Date, (2) the earliest date required for such completion under the terms of any Major Leases or REA, (3) such time as may be required under applicable zoning law, ordinance, rule or regulation, or (4) the expiration of the insurance coverage referred to in Section 8.1(a)(iii);

(K) Borrower shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Lender a detailed budget certified by Borrower’s architect or engineer setting forth the cost of completing the Restoration, which budget shall be acceptable to Lender, together with complete plans and specifications for the Restoration; and

(L) the Net Proceeds together with any cash or cash equivalent deposited by Borrower with Lender are sufficient in Lender’s reasonable judgment to cover the cost of the Restoration or, alternatively, Borrower causes a guarantor reasonably acceptable to Lender to deliver a guaranty to Lender in the amount of the Net Proceeds deficiency in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Lender.

(ii) Net Proceeds shall be held by Lender in an interest bearing account until disbursements commence and, until disbursed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 8.4(b), shall constitute additional security for the Debt and other obligations under the Loan Documents. Net Proceeds shall be disbursed by Lender to, or as directed by, Borrower from time to time during the course of the Restoration, upon receipt of evidence satisfactory to Lender that (A) all the conditions precedent to such advance, including those set forth in Section 8.4(b)(i), have been satisfied, (B) all materials installed and work and labor performed (except to the extent that they are to be paid for out of the requested disbursement) in connection with the related Restoration item have been paid for in full, and (C) there exist no notices of pendency, stop orders, mechanic’s or materialman’s liens or notices of intention to file same, or any other liens or encumbrances of any nature whatsoever on the applicable Individual Property which have not either been fully bonded to the satisfaction of Lender and discharged

of record or in the alternative fully insured to the satisfaction of Lender by the title company issuing the Title Insurance Policy. Insurance Proceeds from rent loss or business interruption coverage, as applicable, which are required to be maintained by Borrower pursuant to Section 8.1(a), shall be controlled by Lender at all times, shall not be subject to the provisions of this Section 8.4 and shall be used solely for the payment of the obligations under the Loan Documents and operating expenses.

(iii) All plans and specifications required in connection with the Restoration shall be subject to prior review and acceptance in all respects by Lender and by an independent consulting engineer selected by Lender (the “Restoration Consultant”), in each case, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Lender shall have the use of the plans and specifications and all permits, licenses and approvals required or obtained in connection with the Restoration. The identity of the contractors, subcontractors and materialmen engaged in the Restoration, as well as the contracts in excess of $50,000 under which they have been engaged, shall be subject to prior review and acceptance by Lender and the Restoration Consultant, in each case, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. All costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with making the Net Proceeds available for the Restoration, including, without limitation, reasonable counsel fees and disbursements and the Restoration Consultant’s fees, shall be paid by Borrower.

(iv) In no event shall Lender be obligated to make disbursements of the Net Proceeds in excess of an amount equal to the costs actually incurred from time to time for work in place as part of the Restoration, as certified by the Restoration Consultant, minus the Restoration Retainage. The term “Restoration Retainage” shall mean an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the costs actually incurred for work in place as part of the Restoration, as certified by the Restoration Consultant, until the Restoration has been completed. The Restoration Retainage shall be reduced to five percent (5%) of the costs incurred upon receipt by Lender of satisfactory evidence that fifty percent (50%) of the Restoration has been completed. The Restoration Retainage shall in no event, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above in this Section 8.4(b), be less than the amount actually held back by Borrower from contractors, subcontractors and materialmen engaged in the Restoration. The Restoration Retainage shall not be released until the Restoration Consultant certifies to Lender that the Restoration has been completed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 8.4(b) and that all approvals necessary for the re‑occupancy and use of the applicable Individual Property have been obtained from all appropriate Governmental Authorities, and Lender receives evidence satisfactory to Lender that the costs of the Restoration have been paid in full or will be paid in full out of the Restoration Retainage; provided, however, that Lender will release the portion of the Restoration Retainage being held with respect to any contractor, subcontractor or materialman engaged in the Restoration as of the date upon which the Restoration Consultant 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, 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 Title Insurance Policy, and Lender receives an endorsement to the Title Insurance Policy insuring the continued

-93-

priority of the lien of the Mortgage and evidence of payment of any premium payable for such endorsement. If required by Lender, the release of any such portion of the Restoration Retainage 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.

(v) Lender shall not be obligated to make disbursements of the Net Proceeds more frequently than once every calendar month.

(vi) If at any time the Net Proceeds or the undisbursed balance thereof shall not, in the reasonable opinion of Lender in consultation with the Restoration Consultant, be sufficient to pay in full the balance of the costs which are estimated by the Restoration Consultant to be incurred in connection with the completion of the Restoration, Borrower shall deposit the deficiency (the “Net Proceeds Deficiency”) with Lender before any further disbursement of the Net Proceeds shall be made or alternatively, Guarantor delivers a letter of credit to Lender in the amount of the Net Proceeds Deficiency in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Lender. The Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited with Lender shall be held by Lender and shall be disbursed for costs actually incurred in connection with the Restoration on the same conditions applicable to the disbursement of the Net Proceeds, and until so disbursed pursuant to this Section 8.4(b) shall constitute additional security for the Debt and other obligations under the Loan Documents and shall be deposited into an interest bearing Eligible Account.

(vii) The excess, if any, of the Insurance Proceeds and the remaining balance, if any, of the Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited with Lender after the Restoration Consultant certifies to Lender that the Restoration has been completed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 8.4(b), and the receipt by Lender of evidence satisfactory to Lender that all costs incurred in connection with the Restoration have been paid in full, shall be remitted by Lender to Borrower, provided no Event of Default shall have occurred and shall be continuing under the Note, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.

(c) All Net Proceeds not required to be made available for Restoration, returned to Borrower as excess Net Proceeds pursuant to Section 8.4(b)(vii), or in the case of Condemnation Proceeds, applied by Lender in accordance with this Section 8.4(c), may (i) be retained and applied by Lender toward the payment of the Debt (without any prepayment premium or penalty, so long as no Event of Default exists) whether or not then due and payable in such order, priority and proportions as Lender in its sole discretion shall deem proper, or, (ii) at the sole discretion of Lender, be paid, either in whole or in part, to Borrower for such purposes and upon such conditions as Lender shall designate. If, pursuant to this Section 8.4, Lender shall receive and retain Net Proceeds, the Debt shall be reduced only by the amount thereof received and retained by Lender and actually applied by Lender in reduction thereof; provided, however, that in the event the Net Proceeds are applied to the Debt due to Lender not making the Net Proceeds available for Restoration and such Net Proceeds are not sufficient to repay the Debt in its entirety, then for so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower shall be permitted to prepay the remainder of the outstanding Debt in compliance with the requirements of Article 2, without the requirement for defeasance or the payment of any prepayment premiums, fee or penalty. Following the Securitization of the Loan, if, after a taking of any portion of any Individual Property by a condemning authority,

-94-

the ratio of the unpaid principal balance of the Loan to the value of the remaining portion of such Individual Property and the other remaining Individual Properties (as determined by any commercially reasonable method permitted to a REMIC Trust, it being understood that Lender shall not require a new or updated appraisal to make such determination so long as there is another commercially reasonable valuation method available to Lender, which may include a buyer’s purchase price in the case of a contemporaneous arm’s length sale and assumption of the Loan or a broker’s price opinion so long as such method is a commercially reasonable valuation method permitted to a REMIC Trust, as determined in Lender’s sole discretion, provided that any such determination shall be based solely on the value of real property and excluding personal property and going-concern value (the “LTV Ratio”)) is greater than one hundred twenty-five percent (125%), then Borrower shall be required to repay a portion of the principal balance of the Debt by an amount equal to the least of the following amounts: (i) all Condemnation Proceeds, (ii) the fair market value of such portion of the Individual Property taken at the time of the taking, and (iii) an amount such that the LTV Ratio following the taking is not greater than the LTV Ratio immediately prior to the taking.

(d) In the event of foreclosure of any Mortgage, or other transfer of title to any Individual Property in extinguishment in whole or in part of the Debt, all right, title and interest of Borrower in and to the Policies then in force concerning the applicable Individual Properties and all proceeds payable thereunder shall thereupon vest in the purchaser at such foreclosure, Lender or other transferee in the event of such other transfer of title.

Lender will apply the Tax and Insurance Reserve Funds to payments of Property Taxes and Insurance Premiums required to be made by Borrower pursuant to Section 5.4 and Section 8.1 hereof. In making any disbursement from the Tax and Insurance Reserve Account, Lender may do so according to any xxxx, statement or estimate procured from the appropriate public office or tax lien service (with respect to Property Taxes) or insurer or agent (with respect to Insurance Premiums), without inquiry into the accuracy of such xxxx, statement or estimate or into the validity of any tax, assessment, sale, forfeiture, tax lien or title or claim thereof.

Section 9.6. Reserved.

Section 9.7. Excess Cash; Operating Expenses; Extraordinary Expenses

(a) Borrower shall establish on the date hereof an Eligible Account with Lender or Lender’s agent into which Borrower shall deposit all Excess Cash on each Payment Date during the continuation of a Cash Sweep Period (the “Excess Cash Reserve Account”).

Provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, all sums on deposit in the Excess Cash Reserve Account shall be disbursed to Borrower upon the earlier to occur of (i) payment in full of the Debt or (ii) the discontinuation of a Cash Sweep Period; provided, however, notwithstanding the foregoing clause (ii), in the event that a Cash Sweep Period would still be continuing but for the deemed expiration of (A) a Southern Company Services Cash Sweep Period due to the occurrence of a Southern Company Services Cash Trap Cap Cure or (B) a 3M Cash Sweep Period due to the occurrence of a 3M Cash Trap Cap Cure, the Excess Cash Reserve Funds shall not be disbursed to Borrower and shall continue to be held by Lender as additional security for the Loan until such time that the Southern Company Services Cure Conditions or the 3M Cure Conditions, as applicable, are satisfied, and upon which, all sums on deposit in the Excess Cash Reserve Account shall be disbursed to Borrower provided that no Event of Default is continuing.

(b) During the continuation of a Cash Sweep Period, Borrower shall submit to Lender not later than the twentieth (20th) day of each calendar month, a statement certified by Borrower in the form required by Lender (i) setting forth those Operating Expenses and Extraordinary Expenses (as well as a reasonably detailed explanation thereof) to be paid by Borrower during the following calendar month, (ii) stating that no Operating Expenses or Extraordinary Expenses are more than ninety (90) days past due.

Only those Operating Expenses which are consistent with the Annual Budget, as well as those Operating Expenses and Extraordinary Expenses otherwise approved by Lender in writing in its reasonable discretion, shall be approved for payment and shall be disbursed to Borrower on the next Payment Date.

Section 9.8. Required Work

Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts to diligently pursue all Required Repairs and Replacements and Tenant Improvements (collectively, the “Required Work”) to completion in accordance with the following requirements:

-100-

(a) Lender reserves the right, at its option, to approve all contracts or work orders with materialmen, mechanics, suppliers, subcontractors, contractors or other parties providing labor or materials in connection with the Required Work to the extent such contracts or work orders exceed $100,000. Upon Lender’s request, Borrower shall assign any contract or subcontract to Lender for which the amount owed thereunder exceeds $100,000.

(b) In the event Lender determines in its reasonable discretion that any Required Work is not being or has not been performed in a workmanlike or timely manner, and Borrower shall have failed to do so after written notice and a thirty day time period (or such longer time period as may be reasonably required for Borrower to complete such Required Work, to the extent Borrower is diligently pursing such completion) Lender shall have the option to withhold disbursement for such unsatisfactory Required Work and to proceed under existing contracts or to contract with third parties to complete such Required Work and to apply the Required Repair Funds, Leasing Reserve Funds or the Replacement Reserve Funds, as applicable, toward the labor and materials necessary to complete such Required Work, and to exercise any and all other remedies available to Lender upon an Event of Default hereunder.

(c) During the continuance of an Event of Default, in order to facilitate Lender’s completion of the Required Work, Borrower grants Lender the right to enter onto the each Individual Property and perform any and all work and labor necessary to complete the Required Work and/or employ watchmen to protect each Individual Property from damage, subject to the rights of tenants. All sums so expended by Lender, to the extent not from the Reserve Funds, shall be deemed to have been advanced under the Loan to Borrower and secured by the Mortgage. For this purpose Borrower constitutes and appoints Lender its true and lawful attorney‑in‑fact with full power of substitution to, during the continuance of an Event of Default, complete or undertake the Required Work in the name of Borrower upon Borrower’s failure to do so in a workmanlike and timely manner. Such power of attorney shall be deemed to be a power coupled with an interest and cannot be revoked. Borrower empowers said attorney‑in‑fact as follows: (i) to use any of the Reserve Funds for the purpose of making or completing the Required Work; (ii) to make such additions, changes and corrections to the Required Work as shall be reasonably necessary to complete the Required Work; (iii) to employ such contractors, subcontractors, agents, architects and inspectors as shall be required for such purposes; (iv) to pay, settle or compromise all existing bills and claims which are or may become Liens against any Individual Property, or as may be reasonably necessary for the completion of the Required Work, or for clearance of title; (v) to execute all applications and certificates in the name of Borrower which may be required by any of the contract documents; (vi) to prosecute and defend all actions or proceedings in connection with each applicable Individual Property or the rehabilitation and repair of each applicable Individual Property; and (vii) to do any and every act which Borrower might do on its own behalf to fulfill the terms of this Agreement.

(d) Nothing in this Section 9.8 shall: (i) make Lender responsible for making or completing the Required Work; (ii) require Lender to expend funds in addition to the Reserve Funds to make or complete any Required Work; (iii) obligate Lender to proceed with the Required Work; or (iv) obligate Lender to demand from Borrower additional sums to make or complete any Required Work.

-101-

(e) Borrower shall permit Lender and Lender’s agents and representatives (including, without limitation, Lender’s engineer, architect, or inspector) or third parties performing Required Work pursuant to this Section 9.8 to enter onto each Individual Property, together with a representative of Borrower, during normal business hours (subject to the rights of tenants under their Leases) to inspect the progress of any Required Work and all materials being used in connection therewith, to examine all plans and shop drawings relating to such Required Work which are or may be kept at any Individual Property, and to complete any Required Work in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.8(c) above. Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause all contractors and subcontractors to cooperate with Lender and Lender’s representatives or such other persons described above in connection with inspections described in this Section 9.8 or the completion of Required Work pursuant to this Section 9.8.

(f) Lender may, to the extent any Required Work would reasonably require an inspection of any Individual Property, inspect such Individual Property at Borrower’s expense prior to making a disbursement of the Reserve Funds in order to verify completion of the Required Work for which reimbursement is sought. Borrower shall pay Lender a reasonable inspection fee not exceeding $1,000 for each such inspection. Lender may require that such inspection be conducted by an appropriate independent qualified professional selected by Lender and/or may require a copy of a certificate of completion by an independent qualified professional acceptable to Lender prior to the disbursement of the Reserve Funds. Borrower shall pay the expense of the inspection as required hereunder, whether such inspection is conducted by Lender or by an independent qualified professional.

(g) The Required Work and all materials, equipment, fixtures, or any other item comprising a part of any Required Work shall be constructed, installed or completed, as applicable, free and clear of all mechanic’s, materialman’s or other Liens (except for Permitted Encumbrances).

(h) Before each disbursement of the Reserve Funds in the amount of at least $100,000.00 for Required Work, Lender may require Borrower to provide Lender with a search of title to for each applicable Individual Property effective to the date of the disbursement, which search shows that no mechanic’s or materialmen’s or other Liens of any nature have been placed against such Individual Property since the date of recordation of the applicable Mortgage and that title to such Individual Property is free and clear of all Liens (except for Permitted Encumbrances).

(i) All Required Work shall comply with all Legal Requirements and applicable insurance requirements including, without limitation, applicable building codes, special use permits, environmental regulations, and requirements of insurance underwriters.

(j) Borrower hereby assigns to Lender all rights and claims Borrower may have against all Persons supplying labor or materials in connection with the Required Work; provided, however, that Lender may not pursue any such rights or claims unless an Event of Default has occurred and remains uncured.

Section 9.9. Release of Reserve Funds

-102-

(a) Upon written request from Borrower and satisfaction of the requirements set forth in this Agreement, Lender shall disburse to Borrower amounts from (i) the Required Repair Account to the extent necessary to pay for or reimburse Borrower for the actual costs of each Required Repair (but not exceeding one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the original estimated cost of such Required Repair as set forth on Schedule 9.1, unless Lender has agreed to reimburse Borrower for such excess cost pursuant to Section 9.9(f)), (ii) the Replacement Reserve Account to the extent necessary to pay for or reimburse Borrower for the actual costs of any approved Replacements, or (iii) the Leasing Reserve Account to the extent necessary to pay for or reimburse Borrower for the actual costs of Tenant Improvements and/or Leasing Commissions incurred in connection with Leases entered into in accordance with the Loan Documents, provided that (A) such Leasing Commissions are in an amount that is customary for properties similar to the applicable Individual Property and the portion of the applicable Individual Property leased for which such Leasing Commissions are due, and (B) the amount of such Leasing Commissions are determined pursuant to arm’s‑length transactions between Borrower and any leasing agent to which a Leasing Commission is due. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, in no event shall Lender be required to (x) disburse any amounts which would cause the amount of funds remaining in the Required Repair Account after any disbursement (other than with respect to the final disbursement) to be less than one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the then current estimated cost of completing all remaining Required Repairs for the Properties, (y) disburse funds from any of the Reserve Accounts if an Event of Default exists, or (z) disburse funds from the Replacement Reserve Account to reimburse Borrower for the costs of routine repairs or maintenance to the Properties or for costs which are to be reimbursed from funds held in the Required Repair Account or for Tenant Improvements and Leasing Commissions. Lender shall disburse such Reserve Funds to Borrower in accordance with this Section 9.9 so long as such funds remain in the respective Reserve Accounts and no Event of Default is continuing. Borrower shall have paid all invoices with respect to which a disbursement is requested or, at the request of Borrower, if Borrower is requesting a payment rather than a reimbursement of all such costs, Lender shall issue joint checks, payable to Borrower and the contractor (or a direct payment directly to such contractor), supplier, materialman, mechanic, subcontractor or other party to whom payment is due. In the case of payments made by joint check or direct payment, Lender may require a conditional waiver of lien from each Person receiving payment prior to Lender’s disbursement.

(b) With each request for disbursement, Borrower shall certify in writing to Lender that all Required Work has been performed in accordance with all Legal Requirements and that all such Required Work has been completed lien free and paid for in full or will be paid for in full upon disbursement of the requested funds. In addition, each request for disbursement in excess of $100,000 shall be on a form attached hereto as Exhibit 9.9 and shall (i) include copies of invoices for all items or materials purchased and all labor or services provided, (ii) specify (A) the Required Work for which the disbursement is requested, (B) the quantity and price of each item purchased, if the Required Work includes the purchase or replacement of specific items, (C) the price of all materials (grouped by type or category) used in any Required Work other than the purchase or replacement of specific items, and (D) the cost of all contracted labor or other services applicable to each Required Work for which such request for disbursement is made, (iii) if requested by Lender, conditional lien waivers from each contractor, supplier, materialman, mechanic or subcontractor with respect to the completion of its work or delivery of its materials, and (iv) include, if such request for disbursement

-103-

is in connection with Tenant Improvements, in connection with the final disbursement in connection with such Tenant Improvements, a certificate from an authorized officer of Borrower stating that such Tenant Improvements have been completed in a manner satisfactory and acceptable to such Tenant(s) and (if in connection with the final disbursement for such Tenant Improvements, unless disbursement is requested pursuant to Section 9.9(d)), such Tenant(s) has accepted the premises demised under the applicable Lease(s), and containing such other information as Lender may reasonably require, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender, and/or if such request for disbursement is in connection with Leasing Commissions, a certificate from an authorized officer of Borrower that no further sums are due to it in connection with the applicable Lease. Except as provided in Section 9.9(d), each request for disbursement shall be made only after completion of the Required Repair, Replacement or Tenant Improvement (or the portion thereof completed in accordance with Section 9.9(d)), or the full performance by the leasing agent of its obligations (in the case of Leasing Commissions), as applicable, for which disbursement is requested. Borrower shall provide Lender evidence reasonably satisfactory to Lender in its reasonable judgment of such completion or performance, which such evidence may include the delivery of a tenant estoppel certificate reasonably acceptable to Lender, provided however, if such tenant is not required to deliver an estoppel certificate pursuant to its Lease (or otherwise fails to deliver such certificate following Borrower’s written request and commercially reasonable efforts to so obtain), the certificate from Borrower set forth above shall be sufficient in lieu of such estoppel certificate.

(c) Any lien waiver delivered hereunder shall conform to all Legal Requirements and shall cover all work performed and materials supplied (including equipment and fixtures) for each applicable Individual Property by that contractor, supplier, subcontractor, mechanic or materialman through the date covered by the current disbursement request. In the case of Leasing Commissions, payment shall be made to any leasing agent to which a Leasing Commission is due in the amount of invoices submitted by such leasing agent, provided all of the other conditions for disbursements for such Leasing Commissions are satisfied in the reasonable judgment of Lender.

(d) If the cost of any item of Required Work exceeds $50,000, a request for disbursement from the Reserve Accounts may be made after completion of a portion of the work under such contract, provided (A) the materials for which the request is made are on site at the applicable Individual Property and are properly secured or have been installed in the applicable Individual Property, (B) all other conditions in this Agreement for disbursement have been satisfied, and (C) in the case of a Replacement or Tenant Improvement, funds remaining in the Replacement Reserve Account or Leasing Reserve Account, as the case may be, are, in Lender’s judgment, sufficient to complete such Replacement and other Replacements when required or to complete such Tenant Improvement and other Tenant Improvements when required, as the case may be.

(e) Borrower shall not make a request for, nor shall Lender have any obligation to make, any disbursement from any Reserve Account more frequently than once in any calendar month and (except in connection with the final disbursement) in any amount less than the lesser of (i) $10,000 or (ii) the total cost of the Required Work or Leasing Commission for which the disbursement is requested.

-104-

(f) In the event Borrower requests a disbursement from the Required Repair Account to pay for or to reimburse Borrower for the actual cost of labor or materials used in connection with repairs or improvements other than the Required Repairs specified on Schedule 9.1, or for a Required Repair to the extent the cost of such Required Repair exceeds one hundred twenty-five (125%) of the estimated cost of such Required Repair as set forth on Schedule 9.1 (in either case, an “Additional Required Repair”), Borrower shall disclose in writing to Lender the reason why funds in the Required Repair Account should be used to pay for such Additional Required Repair. If Lender determines that (i) such Additional Required Repair is of the type intended to be covered by the Required Repair Account, (ii) such Additional Required Repair is not covered or is not of the type intended to be covered by the Replacement Reserve Account, (iii) costs for such Additional Required Repair are reasonable, (iv) the funds in the Required Repair Account are sufficient to pay for such Additional Required Repair and all other Required Repairs for the Properties specified on Schedule 9.1, and (v) all other conditions for disbursement under this Agreement have been met, Lender may disburse funds from the Required Repair Account.

(g) Lender’s disbursement of any Reserve Funds or other acknowledgment of completion of any Required Work in a manner satisfactory to Lender shall not be deemed a certification or warranty by Lender to any Person that the Required Work has been completed in accordance with Legal Requirements.

(h) If the funds in any Reserve Account should exceed the amount of payments actually applied by Lender for the purposes of the account, Lender shall return any excess to Borrower, so long as no Event of Default is then continuing. If at any time Lender reasonably determines that the Reserve Funds are not or will not be sufficient to make the required payments, Lender shall notify Borrower of such determination and Borrower shall pay to Lender any amount necessary to make up the deficiency within ten (10) days after written notice from Lender to Borrower requesting payment thereof.

(i) The insufficiency of any balance in any of the Reserve Accounts shall not relieve Borrower from its obligation to fulfill all preservation and maintenance covenants in the Loan Documents.

Section 9.10. Reserve Funds Generally

(a) Reserve Funds shall not be invested except in such Permitted Investments as determined and directed by Lender or its loan servicer.  Except for Interest-Bearing Reserve Funds, all income and interest earned on the investment of Reserve Funds shall be for the account of and be retained by Lender or such loan servicer. All income and interest earned on the investment of Interest-Bearing Reserve Funds shall be for the account of Borrower. In no event shall Lender or its loan servicer be required to invest Reserve Funds in any particular type of Permitted Investment or select any particular account or credit funds therein at any particular rate of interest, provided that selection of the account and the rate of interest credited to Borrower on funds deposited therein shall be consistent with the general standards at the time being utilized by Lender or its loan servicer, as applicable, in establishing similar accounts for loans of comparable type. Any income or interest credited to Borrower hereunder shall be part of the applicable Reserve Account and shall be disbursed in accordance with Section 9.9 above; provided, however, that Lender may, at its election, retain

-105-

any such interest for its own account during the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default. Borrower agrees that it shall include all interest to which it is entitled under the terms hereof as the income of Borrower and shall be the owner of the Reserve Funds for federal and applicable state and local tax purposes, except to the extent that Lender retains any interest for its own account during the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default as provided herein.

(b) Borrower grants to Lender a first‑priority perfected security interest in, and assigns and pledges to Lender, each of the Reserve Accounts and any and all Reserve Funds now or hereafter deposited in the Reserve Accounts as additional security for payment of the Debt. Until expended or applied in accordance herewith, the Reserve Accounts and the Reserve Funds shall constitute additional security for the Debt. The provisions of this Section 9.10 are intended to give Lender “control” of the Reserve Accounts within the meaning of the UCC.

(c) The Reserve Accounts and any and all Reserve Funds now or hereafter deposited in the Reserve Accounts shall be subject to the exclusive dominion and control of Lender, which shall hold the Reserve Accounts and any or all Reserve Funds now or hereafter deposited in the Reserve Accounts subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Without limitation of the foregoing, Borrower and Lender acknowledge and agree that: (i) each Reserve Account is a “securities account” (within the meaning of Section 8-501(a) of the UCC); (ii) all property held in any Reserve Account (including without limitation cash) shall be treated as a “financial asset” (within the meaning of Section 8-102(a)(9) of the UCC); and (iii) the security interest of Lender therein shall be automatically perfected by control pursuant to Sections 8-106(e) and 9-106(a)  of the UCC. Borrower shall have no right of withdrawal from the Reserve Accounts or any other right or power with respect to the Reserve Accounts or any or all of the Reserve Funds now or hereafter deposited in the Reserve Accounts, except as expressly provided in this Agreement.

(d) Lender shall furnish or cause to be furnished to Borrower, without charge, an annual accounting of each Reserve Account in the normal format of Lender or its loan servicer, showing credits and debits to such Reserve Account and the purpose for which each debit to each Reserve Account was made.

(e) As long as no Event of Default is continuing, Lender shall make disbursements from the Reserve Accounts in accordance with this Agreement. All such disbursements shall be deemed to have been expressly pre‑authorized by Borrower, and shall not be deemed to constitute the exercise by Lender of any remedies against Borrower unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and Lender has expressly stated in writing its intent to proceed to exercise its remedies as a secured party, pledgee or lienholder with respect to the Reserve Accounts.

(f) If any Event of Default is continuing, Borrower shall immediately lose all of its rights to receive disbursements from the Reserve Accounts until the earlier to occur of (i) the date on which such Event of Default is cured to Lender’s satisfaction, or (ii) the payment in full of the Debt. In addition, at Lender’s election, Borrower shall lose all of its rights to receive interest on the Interest Bearing Reserve Funds during the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default. Upon the occurrence and continuance of any Event of Default, Lender may exercise any or all of its rights and remedies as a secured party, pledgee and lienholder with respect to the Reserve Accounts. Without limitation of the foregoing, during the continuance of any Event of Default,

-106-

Lender may use and disburse the Reserve Funds (or any portion thereof) for any of the following purposes: (A) repayment of the Debt, including, but not limited to, principal prepayments and the prepayment premium applicable to such full or partial prepayment (as applicable); (B) reimbursement of Lender for all losses, fees, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable legal fees) suffered or incurred by Lender as a result of such Event of Default; (C) payment of any amount expended in exercising any or all rights and remedies available to Lender at law or in equity or under this Agreement or under any of the other Loan Documents; (D) payment of any item from any of the Reserve Accounts as required or permitted under this Agreement; or (E) any other purpose permitted by applicable Legal Requirements; provided, however, that any such application of funds shall not cure or be deemed to cure any Event of Default. Without limiting any other provisions hereof, each of the remedial actions described in the immediately preceding sentence shall be deemed to be a commercially reasonable exercise of Lender’s rights and remedies as a secured party with respect to the Reserve Funds and shall not in any event be deemed to constitute a setoff or a foreclosure of a statutory banker’s lien. Nothing in this Agreement shall obligate Lender to apply all or any portion of the Reserve Funds to effect a cure of any Event of Default, or to pay the Debt, or in any specific order of priority. The exercise of any or all of Lender’s rights and remedies under this Agreement or under any of the other Loan Documents shall not in any way prejudice or affect Lender’s right to initiate and complete a foreclosure under the Mortgage.

(g) The Reserve Funds shall not constitute escrow or trust funds and may be commingled in one or more Eligible Accounts with other funds controlled by Lender or its loan servicer, including, without limitation, funds pledged in favor of Lender by other borrowers, whether for the same purposes as the Reserve Accounts or otherwise. Without limiting any other provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the Reserve Accounts may be established and held in such name or names as Lender or its loan servicer, as agent for Lender, shall deem appropriate, including, without limitation, in the name of Lender or such loan servicer as agent for Lender, but in all events, reflecting Borrower’s ownership thereof subject to Lender’s security interests set forth herein. In the case of any Reserve Account which is held in a commingled account, Lender or its loan servicer, as applicable, shall maintain records sufficient to enable it to determine at all times which portion of such account is related to the Loan. The Reserve Accounts are solely for the protection of Lender. With respect to the Reserve Accounts, Lender shall have no responsibility beyond the allowance of due credit for the sums actually received by Lender or beyond the reimbursement or payment of the costs and expenses for which such accounts were established in accordance with their terms. Upon assignment of the Loan by Lender, any Reserve Funds shall be turned over to the assignee and any responsibility of Lender as assignor shall terminate. The requirements of this Agreement concerning the Reserve Accounts in no way supersede, limit or waive any other rights or obligations of the parties under any of the Loan Documents or under applicable Legal Requirements.

(h) Borrower shall not, without obtaining the prior written consent of Lender, further pledge, assign or grant any security interest in the Reserve Accounts or the Reserve Funds deposited therein or permit any Lien to attach thereto, except for the security interest granted in this Section 9.10, or any levy to be made thereon, or any UCC Financing Statements, except those naming Lender as the secured party, to be filed with respect thereto.

-107-

(i) Borrower will maintain the security interest created by this Section 9.10 as a first priority perfected security interest and will defend the right, title and interest of Lender in and to the Reserve Accounts and the Reserve Funds against the claims and demands of all Persons whomsoever. At any time and from time to time, upon the written request of Lender, and at the sole expense of Borrower, Borrower will promptly and duly execute and deliver such further instruments and documents and will take such further actions as Lender reasonably may request for the purpose of obtaining or preserving the full benefits of this Agreement and of the rights and powers herein granted.

(j) Lender shall be protected in acting upon any notice, resolution, request, consent, order, certificate, report, opinion, bond or other paper, document or signature believed by Lender to be genuine, and it may be assumed conclusively that any Person purporting to give any of the foregoing in connection with the Reserve Account’s has been duly authorized to do so. Lender may consult with counsel, and the opinion of such counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or suffered by them hereunder and in good faith in accordance therewith. Lender shall not be liable to Borrower for any act or omission done or omitted to be done by Lender in reliance upon any instruction, direction or certification received by Lender and without gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(k) Beyond the exercise of reasonable care in the custody thereof, Lender shall not have any duty as to any Reserve Funds in its possession or control as agent therefor or bailee thereof or any income thereon or the preservation of rights against any person or otherwise with respect thereto. In no event shall Lender or its Affiliates, agents, employees or bailees, be liable or responsible for any loss or damage to any of the Reserve Funds, or for any diminution in value thereof, by reason of the act or omission of Lender, except to the extent that such loss or damage results from Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct or intentional nonperformance by Lender of its obligations under this Agreement.

ARTICLE 10
CASH MANAGEMENT

Section 10.1. Deposit Account and Cash Management Account

(a) Borrower acknowledges and confirms that Borrower has established, and Borrower covenants that it shall maintain, pursuant to the Deposit Account Control Agreement, an Eligible Account with Deposit Bank into which Borrower shall, and shall cause Manager to, deposit or cause to be deposited, all Rents and other revenue from the Properties (such account, all funds at any time on deposit therein and any proceeds, replacements or substitutions of such account or funds therein, are collectively referred to herein as the “Deposit Account”). In the event Deposit Bank ceases to qualify as an Eligible Institution, resigns as Deposit Bank, or defaults under or terminates the Deposit Account Control Agreement, Borrower shall cooperate with Lender in designating a successor Eligible Institution and transferring the Deposit Account to such Eligible Institution, each within thirty (30) days after request by Lender. In the event Borrower fails to do so, Lender shall have the right, and Borrower hereby grants to Lender a power of attorney (which

-108-

power of attorney shall be coupled with an interest and irrevocable so long as any portion of the Debt remains outstanding), to designate a successor Eligible Institution to serve as Deposit Bank.

(b) Borrower acknowledges and confirms that, pursuant to the Cash Management Agreement, an Eligible Account with Cash Management Bank into which funds in the Deposit Account shall be transferred pursuant to the terms of Section 10.2(b) hereof (such account, the sub‑accounts thereof, all funds at any time on deposit therein and any proceeds, replacements or substitutions of such account or funds therein, are collectively referred to herein as the “Cash Management Account”) shall be established.

(c) The Deposit Account and Cash Management Account shall each be in the name of Xxxxxxx (DeKalb) Essential Asset REIT II, LLC, on behalf of each Borrower for the benefit of Lender, provided that Borrower shall be the owner of all funds on deposit in such accounts for federal and applicable state and local tax purposes.

(d) The Deposit Account and Cash Management Account shall be subject to the exclusive dominion and control of Lender and, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, neither Borrower, Manager nor any other party claiming on behalf of, or through, Borrower or Manager, shall have any right of withdrawal therefrom or any other right or power with respect thereto.

Section 10.2. Deposits and Withdrawals

(a) Borrower covenants that:

(i) Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, Borrower shall notify and advise each Tenant under each Lease (other than Southern Property Services) to make all payments of Rents or any other item payable under such Leases directly to the Deposit Account or a post office address maintained by Deposit Bank for processing deposits to the Deposit Account, as applicable, pursuant to an instruction letter in the form of Exhibit 10.2 attached hereto (a “Tenant Direction Letter”). With respect to Southern Property Services, Borrower shall deliver a Tenant Direction Letter prior to the payment of Rent due for the month of January, 2019. If Borrower fails to provide any such notice (and without prejudice to Lender’s rights with respect to such default), Lender shall have the right, and Borrower hereby grants to Lender a power of attorney (which power of attorney shall be coupled with an interest and irrevocable so long as any portion of the Debt remains outstanding), to sign and deliver a Tenant Direction Letter;

(ii) Borrower shall, and shall cause Manager to, instruct all Persons that maintain open accounts with Borrower or Manager with respect to any Individual Property or with whom Borrower or Manager does business on an “accounts receivable” basis with respect to any Individual Property to deliver all payments due under such accounts directly to the Deposit Account or a post office address maintained by Deposit Bank for processing deposits to the Deposit Account, as applicable. Neither Borrower nor Manager shall direct any such Person to make payments due under such accounts in any other manner;

-109-

(iii) All Rents or other income from the Properties shall (A) be deemed additional security for payment of the Debt and shall be held in trust for the benefit, and as the property, of Lender, (B) not be commingled with any other funds or property of Borrower or Manager, and (C) if received by Borrower or Manager notwithstanding the delivery of a Tenant Direction Letter, be deposited in the Deposit Account within two (2) Business Days of receipt;

(iv) Without the prior written consent of Lender, so long as any portion of the Debt remains outstanding, neither Borrower nor Manager shall terminate, amend, revoke or modify any Tenant Direction Letter in any manner whatsoever or direct or cause any Tenant to pay any amount in any manner other than as provided in the related Tenant Direction Letter; and

(v) So long as any portion of the Debt remains outstanding, neither Borrower, Manager nor any other Person shall open or maintain any accounts other than the Deposit Account into which revenues from the ownership and operation of the Property are directly deposited from the Tenants. The foregoing shall not prohibit Borrower from utilizing one or more separate accounts for the disbursement or retention of funds that have been transferred to Borrower pursuant to the express terms of this Agreement.

(b) Borrower shall have no rights to make withdrawals from the Deposit Account, provided, that so long as no Cash Sweep Period has occurred and is continuing, all amounts in the Deposit Account shall be transferred to an account designated by Borrower on a daily basis in accordance with the Deposit Account Control Agreement. Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes Lender to instruct Deposit Bank to transfer, or cause to be transferred, on each Business Day during a Cash Sweep Period by wire transfer or other method of transfer mutually agreeable to Deposit Bank and Lender of immediately available funds, all collected and available balances in the Deposit Account (subject to any minimum retained or “peg” balance that may be required pursuant to the terms of the Deposit Account Control Agreement) to the Cash Management Account to be held until disbursed pursuant to the terms of the Cash Management Agreement.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Borrower acknowledges that Borrower is responsible for monitoring the sufficiency of funds deposited in the Cash Management Account and that Borrower is liable for any deficiency in available funds which may be necessary to pay all amounts due from time to time under the Loan Documents, irrespective of whether Borrower has received any account statement, notice or demand from Cash Management Bank.

(d) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes Lender to make any and all withdrawals from the Deposit Account and Cash Management Account and transfers between any of the Reserve Accounts as Lender shall determine in Lender’s sole and absolute discretion and Lender may use all funds contained in any such accounts for any purpose, including but not limited to repayment of the Debt in such order, proportion and priority as Lender may determine in its sole and absolute discretion. Lender’s right to withdraw and apply funds as stated herein shall be in addition to all other rights and remedies provided to Lender under this Agreement, the Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents.

Section 10.3 Security Interest

-110-

(a) To secure the full and punctual payment of the Debt and performance of all obligations of Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, each Borrower hereby grants to Lender a first‑priority perfected security interest in the Deposit Account, all interest, cash, checks, drafts, certificates and instruments, if any, from time to time deposited or held therein, any and all amounts invested in Permitted Investments, and all “proceeds” (as defined in the UCC as in effect in the state in which the Deposit Account is located or maintained) of any or all of the foregoing. Furthermore, Borrower shall not, without obtaining the prior written consent of Lender, further pledge, assign or grant any security interest in any of the foregoing or permit any Lien to attach thereto or any levy to be made thereon or any UCC Financing Statements to be filed with respect thereto. Each Borrower will maintain the security interest created by this Section 10.3(a) as a first priority perfected security interest and will defend the right, title and interest of Lender in and to the Deposit Account against the claims and demands of all Persons whomsoever. The security interest created hereby shall remain in full force and effect until payment in full of the Debt. Upon payment in full of the Debt, this security interest shall terminate without further notice from any party and Lender shall execute such instruments and documents as may be reasonably requested by Borrower to evidence such termination.

(b) Each Borrower authorizes Lender to file any financing statement or statements required by Lender to establish or maintain the validity, perfection and priority of the security interest granted herein in connection with the Deposit Account. Borrower agrees that at any time and from time to time, at the expense of Borrower, Borrower will promptly and duly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and take all further action, that may be necessary or desirable, or that Lender may reasonably request, in order to perfect and protect any security interest granted or purported to be granted hereby (including, without limitation, any security interest in and to any Permitted Investments) or to enable Lender to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies hereunder.

(c) During the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender may exercise any or all of its rights and remedies as a secured party, pledgee and lienholder with respect to the Deposit Account. Without limitation of the foregoing, upon and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Lender may use the Deposit Account for any of the following purposes: (A) repayment of the Debt, including, but not limited to, principal prepayments and the prepayment premium applicable to such full or partial prepayment (as applicable); (B) reimbursement of Lender for all Losses suffered or incurred by Lender as a result of such Event of Default; (C) payment of any amount expended in exercising any or all rights and remedies available to Lender at law or in equity or under this Agreement or under any of the other Loan Documents; (D) payment of any item as required or permitted under this Agreement; or (E) any other purpose permitted by Legal Requirements; provided, however, that any such application of funds shall not cure or be deemed to cure any Event of Default. Without limiting any other provisions hereof, each of the remedial actions described in the immediately preceding sentence shall be deemed to be a commercially reasonable exercise of Lender’s rights and remedies as a secured party with respect to the Deposit Account and shall not in any event be deemed to constitute a setoff or a foreclosure of a statutory banker’s lien. Nothing in this Agreement shall obligate Lender to apply all or any portion of the Deposit Account to effect a cure of any Event of Default, or to pay the Debt, or in any specific order of priority. The exercise of any or all of Lender’s rights and remedies under this Agreement or

-111-

under any of the other Loan Documents shall not in any way prejudice or affect Lender’s right to initiate and complete a foreclosure under any Mortgage.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, for purposes of this Article 10, (i) “Business Day” shall mean a day on which Lender and Deposit Bank are both open for the conduct of substantially all of their respective banking business at the office in the city in which the Note is payable, with respect to Lender, and at the office in the city where the Deposit Account is maintained, with respect to Deposit Bank (in both instances, excluding Saturdays and Sundays), and (ii) with regard to issues of perfection and priority of security interests granted hereunder, for purposes of the UCC, the State of New York shall be deemed to be the Deposit Bank’s jurisdiction (within the meaning of Sections §9-304(b) and §8-110(a) of the UCC).

ARTICLE 11 EVENTS OF DEFAULT; REMEDIES

Section 11.1. Event of Default

The occurrence of any one or more of the following events shall constitute an “Event of Default”:

(a) if (i) any monthly Debt Service payment or the payment due on the Maturity Date is not paid when due, (ii) any deposit to any of the Reserve Accounts required hereunder or under the other Loan Documents is not paid when due or (iii) any other portion of the Debt is not paid when due and (in the case of this clause (iii)) such non-payment continues for five (5) Business Days following written notice to Borrower that the same is due and payable;

(b) except as otherwise expressly provided in the Loan Documents, if any of the Property Taxes or Other Charges are not paid prior to delinquency (unless being contested by Borrower in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents), unless there is sufficient money in the Tax and Insurance Reserve Account for payment of amounts then due and payable and Lender’s access to such money has not been constrained or restricted in any manner;

(c) if (i) the Policies are not kept in full force and effect (unless such failure results from Lender failing to timely pay such premiums when required hereunder, to the extent sufficient funds are then held in the Tax and Insurance Reserve Account and Borrower has complied with all disbursement obligations with respect thereto and has not in any way impeded or impaired Lender’s ability make such payments), (ii) the Xxxxx 28 (or similar) certificate is not delivered to Lender in accordance with Section 8.1 and such failure continues for five (5) days after written notice from Lender or (iii) certified copies of the Policies are not promptly delivered to Lender upon request (provided such copies are available) and such failure continues for ten (10) Business Days after written notice from Lender;

(d) if (i) Borrower breaches in any material respect any covenant with respect to itself or any SPE Component Entity (if any) contained in Article 6, unless within ten (10) Business Days after request by Lender, Borrower delivers an update to the Non-Consolidation Opinion or any New Non-Consolidation Opinion, as applicable, in each case, reasonably acceptable to Lender

-112-

SECONDARY MARKET

Section 13.1. Transfer of Loan

Lender, at no cost to Borrower except as otherwise specifically provided herein, may at any time, sell, transfer or assign the Loan or any portion thereof or interest therein, or grant participations therein (“Participations”) or issue mortgage pass‑through certificates or other securities (“Securities”) evidencing a beneficial interest in a rated or unrated public offering or private placement (each of the foregoing, a “Securitization”).

Section 13.2. Delegation of Servicing

-115-

At the option of Lender, the Loan may be serviced by one or more servicers selected by Lender and Lender may delegate all or any portion of its responsibilities under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to such servicer or servicers pursuant to a servicing agreement between Lender and such servicer. Upon the written request of Borrower, Lender shall deliver to Borrower the name and contact information of any special servicer, master servicer, primary servicer or subservicer having responsibility for the servicing of the Loan. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if the Loan is subject to multiple Securitizations and/or multiple notes, Borrower shall only be required to deal with one primary servicer with respect to payment of each Monthly Payment Amount (and shall only be required to make one payment each month as to such amount) and any consents, approvals, notices, required from, or to, Lender pursuant to the Loan Documents (it being understood that such primary servicer may need to consult with other Persons that hold a portion of Lender’s rights and obligations under the Loan or, to the extent provided for in this Agreement, with the Rating Agencies rating any Securities in connection with any such consent, approval or notice). The time periods for Lender approvals set forth in the Loan Documents shall not be increased if more than one servicer is consulted by the primary servicer. In no event shall the servicing agreement or any party to any such agreement impose any obligations of the Borrower that are in addition to or in conflict with the terms of the Loan Documents.

Section 13.3. Dissemination of Information

Lender may forward to each purchaser, transferee, assignee, or servicer of, and each participant, or investor in, the Loan, or any interest therein, or any Securities or any of their respective successors (collectively, the “Investor”) or any Rating Agency evaluating the Loan (and any other credit rating agency that has elected to be treated as a nationally recognized statistical rating organization for purposes of Section 15E of the Exchange Act without regard to whether or not such credit rating agency has been engaged by the Lender or other Person in anticipation of a Securitization) or any Securities, each prospective Investor, and any organization maintaining databases on the underwriting and performance of commercial mortgage loans, all documents and information which Lender now has or may hereafter acquire relating to the Debt and to Borrower, any managing member or general partner thereof, Guarantor, any SPE Component Entity (if any) and the Properties, including financial statements, whether furnished by Borrower or otherwise, as Lender determines necessary or desirable, subject to any confidentiality provisions that may be contained in any Leases. Borrower irrevocably waives any and all rights it may have under applicable Legal Requirements to prohibit such disclosure, including but not limited to any right of privacy.

Section 13.4 Cooperation

At the request of the holder of the Note and, to the extent not already required to be provided by Borrower under this Agreement, Borrower shall use reasonable efforts to provide information in Borrower’s possession and not in the possession of the holder of the Note in order to satisfy the market standards to which the holder of the Note customarily adheres or which may be reasonably required in the marketplace or by the Rating Agencies in connection with any Securitization, including, without limitation, to:

(a) provide updated financial, budget and other information with respect to the Properties, Borrower and Guarantor and provide modifications and/or updates to, at Lender’s cost,

(b) make changes to the special purpose entity provisions of the organizational documents of any Borrower, any SPE Component Entity and their respective principals; provided, however, Borrower shall not be required to modify its organizational structure as of the Closing Date, if such modification would cause Borrower or direct or indirect owners of interests in Borrower to incur any additional tax liability;

(c) at Borrower’s expense, not to exceed $25,000, cause counsel to render or update existing opinion letters as to enforceability and non‑consolidation, and a 10b‑5 comfort letter, which may be relied upon by the holder of the Note, the Rating Agencies and their respective counsel, which shall be dated as of the closing date of the Securitization;

(d) subject to the rights of tenants, permit site inspections, appraisals, market studies and other due diligence investigations of the Properties, as may be reasonably requested by the holder of the Note or the Rating Agencies or as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate in connection with the Securitization, at Lender’s cost;

(e) make the representations and warranties with respect to the Properties, Borrower, Guarantor and the Loan Documents as are made in the Loan Documents and such other representations and warranties as may be reasonably requested by the holder of the Note or the Rating Agencies;

(f) at the expense of each of Borrower and Lender to the extent of their own costs, execute such amendments to the Loan Documents as may be requested by the holder of the Note or the Rating Agencies or otherwise to effect the Securitization including, without limitation, bifurcation of the Loan into two or more components and/or separate notes and/or creating a pari passu or senior/subordinate note structure (a “Loan Bifurcation”); provided, however, that Borrower shall not be required to modify or amend any Loan Document if such modification or amendment would (i) change the interest rate, the stated maturity, the aggregate principal balance of the Loan or the amortization of principal as set forth herein or in the Note except in connection with a Loan Bifurcation which may result in varying fixed interest rates, principal balances and amortization schedules on the components/notes, but which components shall have the same weighted average interest rate as the original Note prior to the Loan Bifurcation as well as the same aggregate principal balance and weighted amortization schedule except following an Event of Default or following any prepayment (whether resulting from the application of Net Proceeds after a Casualty or Condemnation or otherwise) of any portion of the principal amount of the Loan, (ii) modify or amend any other economic term of the Loan, (iii) otherwise materially increase the obligations or adversely decrease the rights of Borrower under the Loan Documents or (iv) result in Borrower being required to make more than one (1) monthly payment in the aggregate amount of all monthly payment obligations;

-117-

(g) deliver to Lender and/or any Rating Agency, (i) one or more certificates executed by an officer of the Borrower certifying as to the accuracy, as of the closing date of the Securitization, of all representations made by Borrower in the Loan Documents as of the Closing Date in all relevant jurisdictions or, if such representations are no longer accurate, certifying as to what modifications to the representations would be required to make such representations accurate as of the closing date of the Securitization, and (ii) certificates of the relevant Governmental Authorities in all relevant jurisdictions indicating the good standing and qualification of Borrower as of the date of the closing date of the Securitization;

(h) have reasonably appropriate personnel participate in a bank meeting and/or presentation for the Rating Agencies or Investors;

(i) cooperate with and assist Lender in obtaining ratings of the Securities from two (2) or more of the Rating Agencies; and

Unless otherwise specifically set forth in this Section 13.3, all reasonable third party costs and expenses incurred by Borrower or Guarantor in connection with Borrower’s complying with requests made under this Section 13.3 shall be borne by Borrower.

Section 13.4. Securitization

(a) Borrower understands that certain of the Provided Information may be included in disclosure documents in connection with the Securitization, including, without limitation, a prospectus, prospectus supplement, offering memorandum or private placement memorandum (each, a “Disclosure Document”) and may also be included in filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, or provided or made available to investors or prospective investors in the Securities, the Rating Agencies, and service providers relating to the Securitization. In the event that the Disclosure Document is required to be revised prior to the sale of all Securities, Borrower will cooperate with the holder of the Note in updating the Disclosure Document by providing all current information necessary to keep the Disclosure Document accurate and complete in all material respects, provided Lender has provided a copy of such Disclosure Document to Borrower for such purpose.

(b) Borrower agrees to provide, and to cause Guarantor to provide, in connection with each of (i) a preliminary and a final offering memorandum or private placement memorandum or similar document (including any Investor or Rating Agency “term sheets” or presentations relating to the Properties and/or the Loan) or (ii) a preliminary and final prospectus or prospectus supplement, as applicable, an indemnification certificate (A) certifying that Borrower and Guarantor have carefully examined, to the extent requested by Lender and delivered to Borrower for such review, such memorandum or prospectus or other document (including any Investor or Rating Agency “term sheets” or presentations relating to the Properties and/or the Loan), as applicable, including without limitation, the sections entitled “Special Considerations,” and/or “Risk Factors,” and “Certain Legal

-118-

Aspects of the Mortgage Loan,” or similar sections, and all sections relating to Borrower, Guarantor, Manager, their Affiliates, the Loan, the Loan Documents and the Properties, and any risks or special considerations relating thereto, and that, to Borrower’s Knowledge, such sections (and any other sections reasonably requested) do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements made, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, (B) indemnifying Lender (and for purposes of this Section 13.4, Lender hereunder shall include its officers and directors) and the Affiliate of Lender that (i) has filed the registration statement, if any, relating to the Securitization and/or (ii) which is acting as issuer, depositor, sponsor and/or a similar capacity with respect to the Securitization (any Person described in (i) or (ii), an “Issuer Person”), and each director and officer of any Issuer Person, and each Person or entity who controls any Issuer Person within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (collectively, the “Issuer Group”), and each Person which is acting as an underwriter, manager, placement agent, initial purchaser or similar capacity with respect to the Securitization, each of its directors and officers and each Person who controls any such Person within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act (collectively, the “Underwriter Group”) for any Losses to which Lender, the Issuer Group or the Underwriter Group may become subject insofar as the Losses arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in such sections (including any Investor or Rating Agency “term sheets” or presentations relating to the Properties and/or the Loan) 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 sections (including any Investor or Rating Agency “term sheets” or presentations relating to the Properties and/or the Loan) or necessary in order to make the statements in such sections (including any Investor or Rating Agency “term sheets” or presentations relating to the Properties and/or the Loan) or in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading (collectively the “Securities Liabilities”) and (C) agreeing to reimburse Lender, the Issuer Group and the Underwriter Group for any reasonable legal fees actually incurred or other actual expenses reasonably incurred by Lender and Issuer Group in connection with investigating or defending the Securities Liabilities; provided, however, that Borrower will be liable in any such case under clauses (B) or (C) above only to the extent that any such Securities Liabilities arise out of or is based upon any such untrue statement or omission made therein in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to Lender or any member of the Issuer Group or Underwriter Group by or on behalf of Borrower or Guarantor in connection with the preparation of the memorandum or prospectus or other document (including any Investor or Rating Agency “term sheets” or presentations relating to the Properties and/or the Loan) or in connection with the underwriting of the Loan, including, without limitation, financial statements of Borrower or Guarantor, operating statements, rent rolls, environmental site assessment reports and Property Condition Reports with respect to the Properties. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which Borrower and Guarantor may otherwise have. Moreover, the indemnification provided for in clauses (B) and (C) above shall be effective whether or not an indemnification certificate described in (A) above is provided and shall be applicable based on information previously provided by Borrower and Guarantor or their Affiliates if Borrower or Guarantor do not provide the indemnification certificate. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article 13, to the extent that disclosure is based on information provided solely by a Lender affiliate or a third party selected or engaged by Lender, Borrower will be liable for such disclosure only if Borrower (a) knew, or exercising reasonable diligence, should have known, that

-119-

such disclosure or information contained an untrue statement of material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statement made, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading and (b) failed to disclose the same to Lender in writing prior to the pricing of the applicable Securitization.

(c) In connection with filings under the Exchange Act or any information provided to holders of Securities on an ongoing basis, Borrower agrees to indemnify (i) Lender, the Issuer Group and the Underwriter Group for Losses to which Lender, the Issuer Group or the Underwriter Group may become subject insofar as the Securities Liabilities arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact in the Provided Information or the omission or alleged omission to state in the Provided Information a material fact required to be stated in the Provided Information in order to make the statements in the Provided Information, in light of the circumstances under which they were made not misleading and (ii) reimburse Lender, the Issuer Group or the Underwriter Group for any reasonable legal fees actually incurred or other actual expenses reasonably incurred by Lender, the Issuer Group or the Underwriter Group in connection with defending or investigating the Securities Liabilities. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 13.4 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 13.4, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof, but the omission to so notify the indemnifying party will not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability which the indemnifying party may have to any indemnified party hereunder except to the extent that failure to notify causes the indemnifying party to be materially prejudiced. In the event that any action is brought against any indemnified party, and it shall notify the indemnifying party thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled, jointly with any other indemnifying party, to participate therein and, to the extent that it (or they) may elect by written notice delivered to the indemnified party promptly after receiving the aforesaid notice from such indemnified party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party. After notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party under this Section 13.4 the indemnifying party shall be responsible for any reasonable out-of-pocket legal or other actual out-of-pocket expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided, however, if the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there are any legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to assert such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one such separate counsel unless an indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or additional to those available to another indemnified party.

(d) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which the indemnity agreements provided for in Section 13.4(c) or Section 13.4(d) is or are for any reason held to be unenforceable by an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or action in respect thereof) referred to therein which would otherwise be indemnifiable

-120-

under Section 13.4(c) or Section 13.4(d), the indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or action in respect thereof); provided, however, that no Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. In determining the amount of contribution to which the respective parties are entitled, the following factors shall be considered: (i) the indemnified party’s, Borrower’s and Guarantor’s relative knowledge and access to information concerning the matter with respect to which claim was asserted; (ii) the opportunity to correct and prevent any statement or omission; and (iii) any other equitable considerations appropriate in the circumstances. Lender and Borrower hereby agree that it would not be equitable if the amount of such contribution were determined by pro rata or per capita allocation.

(e) Borrower shall, and shall cause Guarantor to, indemnify the Lender and its officers, directors, partners, employees, representatives, agents and Affiliates against any Losses to which Lender and each of its officers, directors, partners, employees, representatives, agents and Affiliates, may become subject in connection with any indemnification to the Rating Agencies in connection with issuing, monitoring or maintaining the Securities insofar as the Losses arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement of any material fact in any information provided by or on behalf of the Borrower to the Rating Agencies (the “Covered Rating Agency Information”) or arise out of or are based upon the omission to state a material fact in the Covered Rating Agency Information required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements in the Covered Rating Agency Information, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

(f) The liabilities and obligations of Borrower and Lender under this Section 13.5 shall survive the satisfaction of this Agreement and the satisfaction and discharge of the Debt.

Section 13.5. Regulation AB Obligor Information

(a) 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 Properties alone or the Properties 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 (as defined in Item 1101(k) of Regulation AB), to the Properties (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

-121-

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 Exchange Act in connection with or relating to the securitization (an “Exchange Act Filing”) is not required.

(b) If reasonably 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 for any Tenant 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; 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; and provided further, that such delivery of information shall be subject in all respects to the terms of each such Tenant’s Lease.

Section 13.6. Other Regulation AB Information

In addition to, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing provisions of, this Article 13, in the event Lender reasonably determines, in connection with a Securitization, that financial statements and financial data required in order to comply with Regulation AB or any amendment, modification or replacement thereto or any other requirement of law applicable to the Securitization (including without limitation the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, Regulation AB, the rules and regulations promulgated pursuant to the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act), Lender may request, and Borrower shall promptly provide, such other financial statements and financial data in Borrower’s possession as Lender reasonably determines to be necessary or appropriate for such compliance. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if reasonably requested by the holder of the Note, Borrower shall promptly provide the holder of the Note with any financial statements or financial, statistical, operating or other information as the holder of the Note shall reasonably determine to be required pursuant to Regulation AB or any amendment, modification or replacement thereto or any other requirement of law applicable to the Securitization in connection with any Disclosure Document, any filing under the Exchange Act or any report that is required to be made available to holders of the Securities under Regulation AB or other requirement of law or as shall otherwise be reasonably requested by the holder of the Note.

Section 13.7. New Mezzanine Loan

Lender, without in any way limiting Lender’s other rights hereunder, shall have the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, at any time to require Borrower to restructure a portion of the Loan and create a mezzanine loan (the “New Mezzanine Loan”) to the owners of the direct equity interests in Borrower which shall be secured by a pledge of such direct equity interests, and for which different interest rates and debt service payments may be established for the Loan and the New Mezzanine Loan in such order of priority as may be designated by Lender; provided, that (i) the total amounts of the Loan and the New Mezzanine Loan shall equal the amount of the Loan immediately prior to the restructuring, (ii) the weighted average interest rate of the Loan and the New Mezzanine Loan, shall on the date created equal the interest rate which was applicable to the Loan immediately prior to the restructuring and (iii) the debt service payments on the Loan and the New Mezzanine Loan shall on the date created equal the debt service payment which was due under the Loan immediately prior to the restructuring; and provided further that any such restructuring carried out after the closing of the Loan shall be at no material cost to Borrower. Borrower shall cooperate with all reasonable requests of Lender in order to restructure the Loan and create the New Mezzanine Loan and shall (A) execute and deliver such documents including, without limitation, in the case of the New Mezzanine Loan, a mezzanine note, a mezzanine loan agreement, a pledge and security agreement and a mezzanine deposit account agreement, (B) cause Borrower’s counsel to deliver such legal opinions and (C) create such bankruptcy remote borrower under the New Mezzanine Loan as, in the case of each of (A), (B) and (C) above, shall be reasonably required by Lender and required by any Rating Agency in connection therewith, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender and satisfactory to any such Rating Agency, including the severance of this Agreement, the Mortgage and other Loan Documents if requested. In the event Borrower fails to execute and deliver such documents to Lender within ten (10) Business Days following such request by Lender, Borrower hereby absolutely and irrevocably appoints Lender as its true and lawful attorney, coupled with an interest, in its name and stead to make and execute all documents necessary or desirable to effect such transactions, Borrower ratifying all that such attorney shall do by virtue thereof. It shall be an Event of Default if Borrower fails to comply with any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Section 13.8 after the expiration of ten (10) Business Days after notice thereof.

WAIVERS

Section 18.1. Remedies Cumulative; Waivers

The rights, powers and remedies of Lender under this Agreement shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any other right, power or remedy which Lender may have against Borrower pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or existing at law or in equity or otherwise. Lender’s rights, powers and remedies may be pursued singularly, concurrently or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Lender may determine in Lender’s sole discretion. No delay or omission to exercise any remedy, right or power accruing upon an Event of Default shall impair any such remedy, right or power or shall be construed as a waiver thereof, but any such remedy, right or power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. A waiver of one Default or Event of Default with respect to Borrower shall not be construed to be a waiver of

-132-

any subsequent Default or Event of Default by Borrower or to impair any remedy, right or power consequent thereon.

Section 18.2. Modification, Waiver in Writing

No modification, amendment, extension, discharge, termination or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, or of the Note, or of any other Loan Document, nor consent to any departure by Borrower therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in a writing signed by the party against whom enforcement is sought, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance, and for the purpose, for which given. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no notice to, or demand on Borrower, shall entitle Borrower to any other or future notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances.

Section 18.3. Delay Not a Waiver

Neither any failure nor any delay on the part of Lender in insisting upon strict performance of any term, condition, covenant or agreement, or exercising any right, power, remedy or privilege hereunder, or under the Note or under any other Loan Document, or any other instrument given as security therefor, shall operate as or constitute a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other future exercise, or the exercise of any other right, power, remedy or privilege. In particular, and not by way of limitation, by accepting payment after the due date of any amount payable under this Agreement, the Note or any other Loan Document, Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any right either to require prompt payment when due of all other amounts due under this Agreement, the Note or the other Loan Documents, or to declare a default for failure to effect prompt payment of any such other amount.

Section 18.4. Trial by Jury

BORROWER AND LENDER EACH HEREBY AGREES NOT TO ELECT A TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY ISSUE TRIABLE OF RIGHT BY JURY, AND WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY FULLY TO THE EXTENT THAT ANY SUCH RIGHT SHALL NOW OR HEREAFTER EXIST WITH REGARD TO THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, OR ANY CLAIM, COUNTERCLAIM OR OTHER ACTION ARISING IN CONNECTION THEREWITH. THIS WAIVER OF RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IS GIVEN KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY BY BORROWER AND LENDER, AND IS INTENDED TO ENCOMPASS INDIVIDUALLY EACH INSTANCE AND EACH ISSUE AS TO WHICH THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY WOULD OTHERWISE ACCRUE. EACH OF LENDER AND BORROWER IS HEREBY AUTHORIZED TO FILE A COPY OF THIS PARAGRAPH IN ANY PROCEEDING AS CONCLUSIVE EVIDENCE OF THIS WAIVER BY BORROWER AND LENDER.

Section 18.5. Waiver of Notice

Borrower shall not be entitled to any notices of any nature whatsoever from Lender except with respect to matters for which this Agreement or the other Loan Documents specifically and expressly provide for the giving of notice by Lender to Borrower and except with respect to

-133-

matters for which Borrower is not, pursuant to applicable Legal Requirements, permitted to waive the giving of notice. Borrower hereby expressly waives the right to receive any notice from Lender with respect to any matter for which this Agreement or the other Loan Documents do not specifically and expressly provide for the giving of notice by Lender to Borrower.

Section 18.6. Remedies of Borrower

In the event that a claim or adjudication is made that Lender or its agents have acted unreasonably or unreasonably delayed acting in any case where by law or under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, Lender or such agent, as the case may be, has an obligation to act reasonably or promptly, Borrower agrees that neither Lender nor its agents shall be liable for any monetary damages, and Borrower’s sole remedies shall be limited to commencing an action seeking injunctive relief or declaratory judgment. The parties hereto agree that any action or proceeding to determine whether Lender has acted reasonably shall be determined by an action seeking declaratory judgment. Lender agrees that, in such event, it shall cooperate in expediting any action seeking injunctive relief or declaratory judgment.

Section 18.7. Waiver of Marshalling of Assets

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Borrower, for itself and its successors and assigns, waives all rights to a marshalling of the assets of Borrower, Borrower’s partners and others with interests in Borrower, and of each and every Individual Property, and agrees not to assert any right under any laws pertaining to the marshalling of assets, the sale in inverse order of alienation, homestead exemption, the administration of estates of decedents, or any other matters whatsoever to defeat, reduce or affect the right of Lender under the Loan Documents to a sale of the Properties or any Individual Property for the collection of the Debt without any prior or different resort for collection or of the right of Lender to the payment of the Debt out of the net proceeds of the Properties in preference to every other claimant whatsoever.

Section 18.8. Waiver of Statute of Limitations

Section 18.10. Contributions and Waivers

(a) As a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, each Borrower will benefit, directly and indirectly, from each Borrower’s obligation to pay the Debt and perform its obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (collectively, the “Obligations”) and in consideration therefore each Borrower desires

-134-

to enter into an allocation and contribution agreement among themselves as set forth in this Section 18.10 to allocate such benefits among themselves and to provide a fair and equitable agreement to make contributions among each of the entities comprising Borrower in the event any payment is made by any Borrower hereunder to Lender (such payment being referred to herein as a “Contribution,” and for purposes of this Section, includes any exercise of recourse by Lender against any Individual Property of a Borrower and application of proceeds of such Individual Property in satisfaction of such Borrower’s obligations, to Lender under the Loan Documents).

(b) Each Borrower shall be liable hereunder with respect to the Obligations only for such total maximum amount (if any) that would not render its Obligations hereunder or under any of the Loan Documents subject to avoidance under Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or any comparable provisions of applicable Legal Requirements.

(c) In order to provide for a fair and equitable contribution among Borrowers in the event that any Contribution is made by a Borrower (a “Funding Borrower”), such Funding Borrower shall be entitled to a reimbursement Contribution (“Reimbursement Contribution”) from all of the other entities comprising Borrower for all payments, damages and expenses incurred by that Funding Borrower in discharging any of the Obligations, in the manner and to the extent set forth in this Section.

(d) For purposes hereof, the “Benefit Amount” of any Borrower as of any date of determination shall be the net value of the benefits to such Borrower and its Affiliates from extensions of credit made by Lender to (i) such Borrower and (ii) to each other Borrower hereunder and the Loan Documents to the extent such other Borrower has guaranteed or mortgaged their property to secure the Obligations of such Borrower to Lender.

(e) Each Borrower shall be liable to a Funding Borrower in an amount equal to the greater of (i) the (A) ratio of the Benefit Amount of such Borrower to the total amount of Obligations, multiplied by (B) the amount of Obligations paid by such Funding Borrower, or (ii) ninety‑five percent (95%) of the excess of the fair saleable value of the Individual Property of such Borrower over the total liabilities of such Borrower (including the maximum amount reasonably expected to become due in respect of contingent liabilities) determined as of the date on which the payment made by a Funding Borrower is deemed made for purposes hereof (giving effect to all payments made by any other Funding Borrower(s) as of such date in a manner to maximize the amount of such Contributions).

(f) In the event that at any time there exists more than one Funding Borrower with respect to any Contribution (in any such case, the “Applicable Contribution”), then Reimbursement Contributions from other Borrower(s) pursuant hereto shall be allocated among such Funding Borrowers in proportion to the total amount of the Contribution made for or on account of the other Borrower(s) by each such Funding Borrower pursuant to the Applicable Contribution. In the event that at any time any Borrower pays an amount hereunder in excess of the amount calculated pursuant to this Section above, that Borrower shall be deemed to be a Funding Borrower to the extent of such excess and shall be entitled to a Reimbursement Contribution from the other Borrowers in accordance with the provisions of this Section.

-135-

(g) Each Borrower acknowledges that the right to Reimbursement Contribution hereunder shall constitute an asset in favor of Borrower to which such Reimbursement Contribution is owing.

(h) No Reimbursement Contribution payments payable by a Borrower pursuant to the terms of this Section shall be paid until all amounts then due and payable by all of the Borrowers to Lender, pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents, are paid in full in cash. Nothing contained in this Section shall limit or affect in any way the Obligations of any Borrower to Lender under the Loan Documents.

(i) To the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, each Borrower waives:

(i) any right to require Lender to proceed against any other Borrower or any other Person or to proceed against or exhaust any security held by Lender at any time or to pursue any other remedy in Lender’s power before proceeding against Borrower;

(ii) any defense based upon any legal disability or other defense of any other Borrower, any guarantor of any other Person or by reason of the cessation or limitation of the liability of any other Borrower or any guarantor from any cause other than full payment of all sums payable under the Loan Documents;

(iii) any defense based upon any lack of authority of the officers, directors, partners or agents acting or purporting to act on behalf of any other Borrower or any principal of any other Borrower or any defect in the formation of any other Borrower or any principal of any other Borrower;

(iv) any defense based upon any statute or rule of law which provides that the obligation of a surety must be neither larger in amount nor in any other respects more burdensome than that of a principal;

(v) any defense based upon any failure by Lender to obtain collateral for the indebtedness or failure by Lender to perfect a lien on any collateral;

(vi) presentment, demand, protest and notice of any kind;

(vii) any defense based upon any failure of Lender to give notice of sale or other disposition of any collateral to any other Borrower or to any other Person or any defect in any notice that may be given in connection with any sale or disposition of any collateral;

(viii) any defense based upon any failure of Lender to comply with applicable laws in connection with the sale or other disposition of any collateral, including any failure of Lender to conduct a commercially reasonable sale or other disposition of any collateral;

(ix) any defense based upon any use of cash collateral under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code;

-136-

(x) any defense based upon any agreement or stipulation entered into by Lender with respect to the provision of adequate protection in any bankruptcy proceeding;

(xi) any defense based upon any borrowing or any grant of a security interest under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code;

(xii) any defense based upon the avoidance of any security interest in favor of Lender for any reason;

(xiii) any defense based upon any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment of debt, liquidation or dissolution proceeding, including any discharge of, or bar or stay against collecting, all or any of the obligations evidenced by the Note or owing under any of the Loan Documents;

(xiv) any defense or benefit based upon Borrower’s, or any other party’s, resignation of the portion of any obligation secured by the Mortgage to be satisfied by any payment from any other Borrower or any such party;

(xv) all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies by Lender even though the election of remedies, such as non‑judicial foreclosure with respect to security for the Loan or any other amounts owing under the Loan Documents, has destroyed Borrower’s rights of subrogation and reimbursement against any other Borrower; and

(xvi) all rights and defenses that Borrower may have because any of Debt is secured by real property. This means, among other things (subject to the other terms and conditions of the Loan Documents): (1) Lender may collect from Borrower without first foreclosing on any real or personal property collateral pledged by any other Borrower, and (2) if Lender forecloses on any real property collateral pledged by any other Borrower, (I) the amount of the Debt may be reduced only by the price for which that collateral is sold at the foreclosure sale, even if the collateral is worth more than the sale price and (II) Lender may collect from Borrower even if any other Borrower, by foreclosing on the real property collateral, has destroyed any right Borrower may have to collect from any other Borrower. This is an unconditional and irrevocable waiver of any rights and defenses Borrower may have because any of the Debt is secured by real property; and except as may be expressly and specifically permitted herein, any claim or other right which Borrower might now have or hereafter acquire against any other Borrower or any other Person that arises from the existence or performance of any obligations under the Loan Documents, including any of the following: (i) any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, or indemnification; or (ii) any right to participate in any claim or remedy of Lender against any other Borrower or any collateral security therefor, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity or under contract, statute or common law.

(j) Each Borrower hereby restates and makes the waivers made by Guarantor in the Guaranty and Environmental Indemnity for the benefit of Lender. Such waivers are hereby incorporated by reference as if fully set forth herein (and as if applicable to each Borrower) and shall be effective for all purposes under the Loan (including, without limitation, in the event that

-137-

any Borrower is deemed to be a surety or guarantor of the Debt (by virtue of each Borrower being co‑obligors and jointly and severally liable hereunder, by virtue of each Borrower encumbering its interest in the Property for the benefit or debts of the other Borrowers in connection herewith or otherwise)).

(ii) each Lender shall designate from time to time, such designations to be made from time to time in each Lender’s sole and absolute discretion, one or more servicers or agents (which may be a Lender, applicable servicer or other agent designated by each Lender) that shall exercise such rights and remedies under the Loan Documents on behalf of the Lender (and all Lenders) such that, with respect to any exercise of applicable rights and remedies at any given time, there shall be a single servicer or agent exercising such rights and remedies as or on behalf of the Lender notwithstanding that there may be multiple Lenders holding the Loan.
