Unless otherwise specified, all meanings attributed to defined terms herein shall be equally applicable to both the singular and plural forms of the terms so defined.

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

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.

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

(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 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.

(a) Payment Before Maturity . On the Closing Date, Borrower shall pay to Lender interest for the Interim Interest Accrual Period and on each Payment Date through and including the Maturity Date, Borrower shall pay to Lender the Monthly Payment Amount.

(b) Payment on Maturity . Borrower shall pay to Lender on the Maturity Date the outstanding principal balance of the Loan, all accrued and unpaid interest and all other amounts due hereunder and under the Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents.

(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.

(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.

(iii) Whenever any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day which is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the first Business Day preceding such Payment Date.

(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 Date) is not paid by Borrower on or prior to the fifth (5 ^th ) day after 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.

(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 expiration of the Lockout Period, 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 (but not in part) 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.

(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 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, but prior to the expiration of the Lockout Period, 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, (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 five percent (5%) of the portion of the principal balance of the Debt, or, after a Securitization, the amount which, when added to the principal balance of the Debt, will be sufficient to purchase Defeasance Collateral (as adjusted based on the portion of the Loan being prepaid), whichever is greater.

(a) Notwithstanding any provisions of this Article 2 to the contrary, at any time following the earlier of (1) the expiration of the REMIC Prohibition Period, or (2) three (3) years from the first Payment Date, Borrower may cause the release of the Property from the Lien of the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents upon the satisfaction of the following conditions:

(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 Defeasance Collateral is to be delivered (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;

(iii) 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 legal fees and expenses for the review and preparation of the Defeasance Security Agreement and of the other materials described in Section 2.7(a)(iv) 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;

(A) a pledge and security agreement, in form and substance which would be satisfactory to a prudent lender, creating a first priority security interest in favor of Lender in the Defeasance Collateral (the “ Defeasance Security Agreement ”);

(B) direct non-callable obligations of the United States of America or, to the extent satisfying Rating Agency criteria, other obligations which are “government securities” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940 that provide for payments on a Business Day prior and as close as possible to each successive Payment Date after the Release Date through the end of the Lockout Period, with each such payment being equal to or greater than the amount of the corresponding Monthly Payment Amount required to be paid under this Agreement and the Note and all amounts necessary to pay the outstanding principal balance and all other amounts due and payable on the day the Lockout Period ends (the “ Defeasance Collateral ”), duly endorsed by the holder thereof as directed by Lender or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form and substance which would be satisfactory to a prudent lender (including, without limitation, such certificates, documents and instruments as may be required by the depository institution holding such securities or the issuer thereof, as the case may be, to effectuate book entry transfers and pledges through the book entry facilities of such institution) in order to perfect upon the delivery of the Defeasance Security Agreement the first priority security interest therein in favor of Lender in conformity with all applicable state and federal laws governing granting of such security interests;

(C) a certificate of Borrower certifying that all of the requirements set forth in this Section 2.7(a) have been satisfied;

(D) one or more opinions of counsel for Borrower in form and substance and delivered by counsel which would be reasonably satisfactory to a prudent lender stating, among other things, that (1) Lender has a perfected first priority security interest in the Defeasance Collateral and that the Defeasance Security Agreement is enforceable against Borrower in accordance with its terms, and (2) the release of the lien of the Mortgage and the pledge of Defeasance Collateral will not directly or indirectly result in or cause any REMIC Trust that holds the Note to fail to maintain its status as a REMIC Trust;

(E) a certificate in form and scope which would be satisfactory to a prudent lender from an independent certified public accountant acceptable to Lender certifying that the Defeasance Collateral will generate amounts sufficient to make all payments of principal and interest due under this Agreement and the Note (including the scheduled outstanding principal balance of the Loan on the last day of the Lockout Period);

(F) such other certificates, opinions, documents and instruments as a prudent lender would reasonably require; and

(G) in the event the Loan is held by a REMIC Trust and if required by Lender, Lender has obtained a Rating Agency Confirmation.

(b) Upon compliance with the requirements of Section 2.7(a) , the Property shall be released from the Lien of the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents, and the Defeasance Collateral shall constitute collateral which shall secure the Note and all other obligations under the Loan Documents. Lender shall, at Borrower’s expense, execute and deliver any agreements reasonably requested by Borrower to release the lien of the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents from the Property.

(c) As a condition to the release of the Property in accordance with Section 2.7 , Borrower shall assign all its obligations and rights under this Agreement and the Note, together with the pledged Defeasance Collateral, to a successor entity designated by Borrower and approved by Lender in its reasonable discretion (“ Successor Borrower ”). Lender’s right to approve the Successor Borrower shall, at the sole option of Bank of America, N.A., be exercised by Bank of America, N.A. and shall be retained by Bank of America, N.A. (or any successor or assign pursuant to an assignment of such retained rights separate and apart from the transfer or Securitization of all or any portion of the Loan), notwithstanding any transfer or Securitization of all or any portion of the Loan. Successor Borrower shall execute an assignment and assumption agreement in form and substance which would be reasonably satisfactory to a prudent lender pursuant to which it shall assume Borrower’s obligations under this Agreement, the Note and the Defeasance Security Agreement. As conditions to such assignment and assumption, Borrower shall (i) deliver to Lender one or more opinions of counsel in form and substance and delivered by counsel which would be reasonably satisfactory to a prudent lender stating, among other things, that such assignment and assumption agreement is enforceable against Borrower and the Successor Borrower in accordance with its terms and that this Agreement, the Note, the Defeasance Security Agreement and the other Loan Documents, as so assigned and assumed, are enforceable against the Successor Borrower in accordance with their respective terms, and opining to such other matters relating to Successor Borrower and its organizational structure as Lender may reasonably require, and (ii) pay all fees, costs and expenses incurred by Lender or its agents and Successor Borrower in connection with such assignment and assumption (including, without limitation, reasonable legal fees and expenses and for the review of the proposed transferee and the preparation of the assignment and assumption agreement and related certificates, documents and instruments and any fees payable to any Rating Agencies and their counsel in connection with the issuance of the confirmation referred to above, and excluding any assumption fee which may otherwise be due pursuant to the other Loan Documents). Upon such assignment and assumption, Borrower shall be relieved of its obligations under this Agreement and the Note, the other Loan Documents and the Defeasance Security Agreement arising from and after the Release Date, except as expressly set forth in the assignment and assumption agreement.

All reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Lender, including, without limitation, reasonable attorney’s fees, in connection with the foregoing shall be paid by Borrower.

(a) Borrower may, without the consent of Lender, (i) make immaterial Transfers of unimproved, non-income producing portions of the Property to Governmental Authorities for dedication or public use (each an “ Outparcel ”), and (ii) grant easements, restrictions, covenants, reservations and rights of way in the ordinary course of business for access, water and sewer lines, telephone or other fiber optic or other data transmission lines, electric lines or other utilities or for other similar purposes, provided that no such Transfer, conveyance or encumbrance set forth in the foregoing clauses (i) or (ii) shall materially impair the utility and operation of the Property or reasonably be expected to, or does, have a Material Adverse Effect. In connection with any Transfer permitted pursuant to this Section 7.5 , Lender shall execute and deliver any instrument reasonably necessary or appropriate, in the case of the Transfers referred to in clause (i) above, to release the portion of the Property affected by such Condemnation or such Transfer from the Lien of the Mortgage or, in the case of clause (ii) above, to subordinate the Lien of the Mortgage to such easements, restrictions, covenants, reservations and rights of way or other similar grants upon receipt by Lender of:

(C) a certificate from an officer of Borrower stating (1) with respect to any Transfer, the consideration, if any, being paid for the Transfer, and (2) that such Transfer does not materially impair the utility and operation of the Property and would not reasonably be expected to have and does not have a Material Adverse Effect; and

(D) reimbursement of all of Lender’s reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred in connection with such Transfer (which shall be paid by Borrower whether or not the proposed Transfer actually occurs).

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 7.5 , for so long as the Loan is included in a REMIC Trust in connection with a Securitization, no release of the Outparcel from the Lien of the Mortgage will be permitted unless, immediately after the Release, either (i) the LTV Ratio is equal to or less than one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) (such value to be determined, in Lender’s sole discretion, by any commercially reasonable method permitted to a REMIC Trust, based solely on the value of the real property excluding personal property and going concern value, if any) or (ii) the principal balance of the Loan is paid down by the least of the following amounts: (A) an amount equal to the net proceeds or other compensation paid by a Governmental Authority in connection with a Transfer described in Section 7.5(a)(i) , (B) the fair market value of the Outparcel at the time of release, or (C) an amount such that the LTV Ratio (as so determined by Lender) does not increase after the release, unless the Lender receives an opinion of counsel that the Securitization will not fail to maintain its status as a REMIC Trust as a result of the release.

(a) Borrower shall obtain and maintain, or cause to be obtained and maintained, at all times insurance for Borrower and the Property providing at least the following coverages:

(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 $25,000 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 the Property shall at any time constitute legal non-conforming structures or uses, providing coverage for contingent liability from 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 the Property (including “dram shop” or other liquor liability coverage if alcoholic beverages are dispensed at the 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;

(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 twelve (12) 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 six (6) months from the date that the 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 the 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 the 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 additional amount as may be required by Lender; 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;

(vi) at all times during which structural construction, repairs or alterations are being made with respect to the Improvements, and only if the Property coverage form does not otherwise apply, (A) owner’s contingent or protective liability insurance covering claims not covered by or under the terms or provisions of the above mentioned commercial general liability insurance policy; and (B) the insurance provided for in subsection (i) above written in a so-called Builder’s Risk Completed Value form (1) on a non-reporting basis, (2) against “special causes of loss” insured against pursuant to subsection (i) above, (3) including permission to occupy the Property, and (4) with an agreed amount endorsement waiving co-insurance provisions;

(vii) comprehensive boiler and machinery insurance, if applicable, in amounts as shall be reasonably required by Lender on terms consistent with the commercial property insurance policy required under subsection (i) above;

(viii) workers’ compensation, subject to the statutory limits of the State, and employer’s liability insurance in respect of any work or operations on or about the Property, or in connection with the Property or its operation (if applicable);

(ix) excess liability insurance in an amount as may be required by Lender on terms consistent with the commercial general liability insurance required under subsection (ii) 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; 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 the Property is subject, including, without limitation, any declarations of covenants, conditions and restrictions or similar covenants and/or restrictions affecting the 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 Property located in or around the region in which the Property is located.

(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 and admitted to do business in the State and having a financial strength rating of at least “A” and a financial size category of at least “VIII” from Alfred M. 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 Moody’s, 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. To the extent such Policies are not available as of the Closing Date, Borrower shall deliver to Lender prior to the Closing Date an Acord 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, certified copies of all Policies. Not less than ten (10) days prior to the expiration dates of any insurance coverage in place with respect to the Property, Borrower shall deliver to Lender an Acord 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, certified 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 Property in compliance with the provisions of Section 8.1(a) hereof; provided , however , any blanket insurance policy that does not specifically allocate to the 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 (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:

(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 thirty (30) 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 the 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.

If the Property shall be damaged or destroyed, in whole or in part, by fire or other casualty (a “ Casualty ”), Borrower shall give prompt notice of such damage to Lender 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 the Property and Lender shall be reimbursed for any expenses incurred by Lender in connection therewith, including without limitation, reasonable out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees.

Borrower shall promptly give Lender notice of the actual or threatened commencement of any proceeding for the Condemnation of the Property of which Borrower has knowledge and shall deliver to Lender copies of any and all documents served in connection with such proceedings. To the extent the amount of the condemnation award is expected to exceed the Restoration Threshold, Lender may participate in any such proceedings, and Borrower shall from time to time deliver to Lender all documents requested by it to permit such participation. Borrower shall, at its expense, diligently prosecute any such proceedings, and to the extent the amount of the condemnation award is expected to exceed the Restoration Threshold, 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 the 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 the 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.

The following provisions shall apply in connection with the Restoration of the Property:

(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, reasonable counsel fees and disbursements), if any, in collecting the same (“ Insurance Proceeds ”), or (ii) the net amount of the Award as a result of a Condemnation, after deduction of its reasonable costs and expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable counsel fees and disbursements), if any, in collecting the same (“ Condemnation Proceeds ”), whichever the case may be.

(i) Net Proceeds shall be made available to Borrower for Restoration provided that each of the following conditions are met:

(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 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 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 Property is taken, such land is located along the perimeter or periphery of the 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 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 the earlier of (i) one hundred twenty (120) days after such Casualty or Condemnation, whichever the case may be, occurs or (ii) thirty (30) days after the Borrower’s receipt of all necessary permits and approvals) and shall diligently pursue the same to satisfactory completion;

(E) Lender shall be satisfied that all scheduled payments of principal and interest under the Note, which will be incurred during the period of Restoration will be covered out of the Net Proceeds, insurance coverage referred to in Section 8.1(a)(iii) above, or other funds of Borrower;

(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) such time as may be required under applicable zoning law, ordinance, rule or regulation, or (3) the expiration of the insurance coverage referred to in Section 8.1(a)(iii) ;

(G) Lender shall be satisfied that the fair market value and cash flow from the Property six (6) months from the date that the Property is repaired or replaced and operations are resumed will not be less than the fair market value and cash flow immediately prior to the Casualty or Condemnation, as applicable;

(H) the Property and the use thereof after the Restoration will be in compliance with and permitted under all Legal Requirements;

(I) the Restoration shall be done and completed by Borrower in a diligent fashion and in compliance with all applicable Legal Requirements;

(J) such Casualty or Condemnation, as applicable, does not result in the permanent loss of access to the Property or the Improvements that would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect;

(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.

(ii) Net Proceeds shall be held by Lender 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 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 usual, customary and reasonable 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 five percent (5%) 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 zero 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 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 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. 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.

(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 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 the Property by a condemning authority, the ratio of the unpaid principal balance of the Loan to the value of the remaining Property (as determined by Lender using any commercially reasonable valuation method, but 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 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 the Mortgage, or other transfer of title to the 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 Property 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.

(a) Borrower shall make the repairs and improvements to the Property set forth on Schedule 9.1 and as more particularly described in the Property Condition Report prepared in connection with the closing of the Loan (such repairs hereinafter referred to as “ Required Repairs ”). Borrower shall complete the Required Repairs in a good and workmanlike manner on or before the date that is twelve (12) months from the Closing Date or within such other time frame for completion specifically set forth on Schedule 9.1 .

(b) Borrower shall establish on the date hereof an Eligible Account with Lender or Lender’s agent to fund the Required Repairs (the “ Required Repair Account ”) into which Borrower shall deposit on the date hereof the amount of $0.00, which amount equals one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the estimated cost for the completion of the Required Repairs. Amounts so deposited shall hereinafter be referred to as the “ Required Repair Funds ”.

(c) Upon the earliest to occur of (i) the timely completion of all Required Repairs and any Additional Required Repairs, if any, in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement, as verified by Lender in its reasonable discretion, and provided no Event of Default is then continuing, (ii) the payment in full of the Debt or (iii) the earlier release of the Lien of the Mortgage (and all related obligations) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, all amounts remaining on deposit, if any, in the Required Repair Account shall be promptly returned to Borrower.

(a) On an ongoing basis throughout the term of the Loan, Borrower shall make capital repairs, replacements and improvements necessary to keep the Property in good order and repair and in a good marketable condition or prevent deterioration of the Property beyond normal wear and tear (collectively, the “ Replacements ”). Borrower shall complete all Replacements in a good and workmanlike manner as soon as commercially reasonable after commencing to make each such Replacement.

(b) Borrower shall establish on the date hereof an Eligible Account with Lender or Lender’s agent to fund the Replacements (the “ Replacement Reserve Account ”) into which Borrower shall deposit on the date hereof $0.00. In addition, Borrower shall deposit $8,665.00 (the “ Replacement Reserve Monthly Deposit ”) into the Replacement Reserve Account on each Payment Date. Amounts so deposited shall hereinafter be referred to as “ Replacement Reserve Funds .”

(c) All sums on deposit in the Replacement Reserve Account shall be disbursed to Borrower upon the earliest to occur of (i) payment in full of the Debt or (ii) the release of the Lien of the Mortgage (and all related obligations) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.


Section 9.3.		[Intentionally Omitted]

Section 9.4.		Tax and Insurance Reserve Funds

(a) Borrower shall establish on the date hereof an Eligible Account with Lender or Lender’s agent sufficient to discharge Borrower’s obligations for the payment of Taxes and Insurance Premiums pursuant to Section 5.4 and Section 8.1 hereof (the “ Tax and Insurance Reserve Account ”) into which Borrower shall deposit on the date hereof $529,216.94, which amount, when added to the required monthly deposits set forth in the next sentence, shall be sufficient to make the payments of Property Taxes and Insurance Premiums as required herein. Borrower shall deposit into the Tax and Insurance Reserve Account on each Payment Date (a) one-twelfth of the Property Taxes that Lender estimates will be payable during the next ensuing twelve (12) months or such higher amount necessary to accumulate with Lender sufficient funds to pay all such Property Taxes at least thirty (30) days prior to the earlier of (i) the date that the same will become delinquent and (ii) the date that additional charges or interest will accrue due to the non-payment thereof, and (b) except to the extent Lender has waived in writing the insurance escrow because the insurance required hereunder is maintained under a blanket insurance Policy acceptable to Lender in accordance with Section 8.1(c) , one-twelfth of the Insurance Premiums that Lender estimates will be payable during the next ensuing twelve (12) months for the renewal of the coverage afforded by the Policies upon the expiration thereof or such higher amount necessary to accumulate with Lender sufficient funds to pay all such Insurance Premiums at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the Policies (said amounts in (a) and (b) above hereinafter called the “ Tax and Insurance Reserve Funds ”). 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 bill, 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 bill, statement or estimate or into the validity of any tax, assessment, sale, forfeiture, tax lien or title or claim thereof. If the amount of the Tax and Insurance Reserve Funds shall exceed the amounts due for Property Taxes and Insurance Premiums pursuant to Section 5.4 and Section 8.1 hereof, Lender shall, in its sole discretion, return any excess to Borrower or credit such excess against future payments to be made to the Tax and Insurance Reserve Account. If at any time Lender reasonably determines that the Tax and Insurance Reserve Funds are not or will not be sufficient to pay Property Taxes and Insurance Premiums by the dates set forth in (a) and (b) above, Lender shall notify Borrower of such determination and Borrower shall pay to Lender any amount necessary to make up the deficiency within ten (10) Business Days after notice from Lender to Borrower requesting payment thereof.

(b) All sums on deposit in the Tax and Insurance Reserve Account shall be disbursed to Borrower upon the earliest to occur of (i) payment in full of the Debt or (ii) the release of the Lien of the Mortgage (and all related obligations) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

(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 ”). Amounts so deposited shall hereinafter be referred to as the “ Excess Cash Reserve Funds ”. Excess Cash Reserve Funds shall be held by Lender as additional security for the Loan; provided, however, during the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender shall have the right, but not the obligation, in its sole discretion to apply Excess Cash Reserve Funds to the Debt in such order and in such manner as Lender shall elect. 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, (ii) the release of the Lien of the Mortgage (and all related obligations) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, or (iii) the discontinuation of a Cash Sweep Period. In the event a Cash Sweep Period occurs twice during the term of the Loan, Borrower shall not be entitled to any disbursement of Excess Cash Reserve Funds during the remaining term of the Loan, the Cash Sweep Period shall continue, and Borrower shall continue to be obligated to pay Excess Cash to Lender on each Payment Date until the Debt is paid in full.

(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 sixty (60) days past due. Together with each such request, Borrower shall furnish Lender with bills and all other documents necessary for the payment of the Operating Expenses and/or Extraordinary Expenses which are the subject of such request. 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.

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

(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 $200,000. Upon Lender’s request, Borrower shall assign any contract or subcontract to Lender to the extent such contract or subcontract exceeds $200,000.

(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, Lender shall provide Borrower with written notice of such fact and shall have the option to withhold disbursement for such unsatisfactory Required Work until Borrower has remedied any deficiencies specified in Lender’s notice.

(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 Property and perform any and all work and labor necessary to complete the Required Work and/or employ watchmen to protect the Property from damage. 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 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 or desirable to complete the Required Work; (iii) to employ such contractors, subcontractors, agents, architects and inspectors as shall be reasonably required for such purposes; (iv) to pay, settle or compromise all existing bills and claims which are or may become Liens against the Property, or as may be reasonably necessary or desirable 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 the Property or the rehabilitation and repair of the 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 9.6 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.

(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 9.6 to enter onto the 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 the Property. 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 9.6 or the completion of Required Work pursuant to this Section 9.6 .

(f) Lender may, to the extent any Required Work would reasonably require an inspection of the Property, inspect the 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 for Required Work in excess of $50,000, Lender may require Borrower to provide Lender with a search of title to the 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 the Property since the date of recordation of the Mortgage and that title to the 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.

(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 9.7(f) ) or (ii) the Replacement Reserve Account to the extent necessary to pay for or reimburse Borrower for the actual costs of any approved Replacements. 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 Property, (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 Property or for costs which are to be reimbursed from funds held in the Required Repair Account.

(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 $50,000 shall be on a form provided or approved by Lender 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. Except as provided in Section 9.7(d) , each request for disbursement shall be made only after completion of the Required Repair, Replacement (or the portion thereof completed in accordance with Section 9.7(d) ), as applicable, for which disbursement is requested. Borrower shall provide Lender evidence satisfactory to Lender in its reasonable judgment of such completion or performance.

(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 the Property by that contractor, supplier, subcontractor, mechanic or materialman through the date covered by the current disbursement request.

(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 Property and are properly secured or have been installed in the Property, (B) all other conditions in this Agreement for disbursement have been satisfied, and (C) in the case of a Replacement, funds remaining in the Replacement Reserve Account are, in Lender’s judgment, sufficient to complete such Replacement and other Replacements when required.

(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 for which the disbursement is requested.

(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 Property 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 in its sole discretion shall either return any excess to Borrower or credit such excess against future payments to be made to that Reserve Account. 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 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.

(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 9.7 above; provided , however , that Lender may, at its election, retain 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 9.8 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, 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. 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 9.8 , 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.

(i) Borrower will maintain the security interest created by this Section 9.8 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.

(a) Borrower covenants that it shall, upon the commencement of a Cash Sweep Period, promptly establish and thereafter 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 Property (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. After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, in the event Borrower fails to do so, 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 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 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.

(i) Upon the commencement of a Cash Sweep Period, Borrower shall, and shall cause Manager to, deposit all amounts received by Borrower or Manager from the operation of the Property, including, without limitation, Rents into the Deposit Account within two (2) Business Days after receipt thereof;

(ii) Upon the commencement of a Cash Sweep Period, Borrower shall, and shall cause Manager to, instruct all Persons that maintain open accounts with Borrower or Manager with respect to the Property, if any, or with whom Borrower or Manager does business on an “accounts receivable” basis with respect to the Property, if any, 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, if any, in any other manner;

(iii) All Rents or other income from the Property 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, and (B) not be commingled with any other funds or property of Borrower or Manager;

(v) If a Cash Sweep Period is in effect and 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 initially deposited. 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 during a Cash Sweep Period.

(b) 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 (i) prior to a Cash Sweep period, such account as shall be specified by Borrower in writing to Lender and Deposit Bank and (ii) during a Cash Sweep Period, 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.

(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, 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. 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) 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 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.

(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).

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

(a) if any portion of the Debt is not paid prior to the fifth (5 ^th ) day following the date the same is due or if the entire Debt is not paid on or before the Maturity Date;

To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify, defend and hold harmless set forth in the preceding sentence may be unenforceable because it violates any law or public policy, Borrower shall pay the maximum portion that it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable Legal Requirements to the payment and satisfaction of all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by the Indemnified Parties.

Borrower shall pay and, at its sole cost and expense, protect, defend, indemnify, release and hold harmless the Indemnified Parties from and against any and all Losses imposed upon or incurred by or asserted against any Indemnified Parties and directly or indirectly arising out of or in any way relating to, any tax on or with respect to the making and/or recording of the Mortgage, the Note or any of the other Loan Documents, but excluding any income, franchise or other similar taxes.

(viii) material physical waste to the Property caused by the intentional acts or omissions of any Exculpated Party when there is sufficient cash flow from the operation of the Property to avoid such waste from occurring;

(ix) Borrower’s failure during the continuance of any Event of Default to deliver to Lender upon demand all Rents and books and records relating to the Property;

(x) Borrower’s assertion or raising of any defense to a proceeding instituted by Lender (whether judicial or otherwise) for the foreclosure of the Mortgage following an Event of Default caused by Borrower’s failure to timely pay the Monthly Payment Amount or the Debt due on the Maturity Date, which defense is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be brought in bad faith;

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the agreement of Lender not to pursue recourse liability as set forth in subsection (a) above SHALL BECOME NULL AND VOID and shall be of no further force and effect and the Debt shall be fully recourse to Borrower in the event (i) of a breach by Borrower or any SPE Component Entity of any of the covenants set forth in Article 6 hereof that is expressly cited in a court’s decision as a basis for a substantive consolidation (other than a substantive consolidation petitioned for or joined in by Lender) of the Borrower with any other Person in a proceeding under any Creditors’ Rights Laws, (ii) Borrower incurs any Indebtedness other than the Debt and Permitted Debt without the prior written consent of Lender or except as expressly permitted in this Agreement, (iii) of the occurrence of a Prohibited Transfer, (iv) the Property or any part thereof shall become an asset in a bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding initiated by Borrower, (v) Borrower, Guarantor or any Affiliate, officer, director, or representative which Controls, directly or indirectly, Borrower or Guarantor files, or joins in the filing of, an involuntary petition against Borrower under any Creditors Rights Laws, or solicits or causes to be solicited petitioning creditors for the filing of any involuntary petition against Borrower from any Person under any Creditors Rights Laws; (vi) Borrower files an answer consenting to or otherwise acquiescing in or joining in any involuntary petition filed against it, by any other Person under any Creditors Rights Laws, or solicits or causes to be solicited petitioning creditors for any involuntary petition from any Person; or (vii) any Affiliate, officer, director, or representative which Controls Borrower consents to or acquiesces in or joins in an application for the appointment of a custodian, receiver, trustee, or examiner for Borrower or any portion of the Property.

In the event that Borrower takes any action or requests any consent or approval of Lender (including, following a Securitization, the securitization trust, any servicer, trust advisor, trustee or certificate administrator) under the provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document and the taking of such action by Borrower or the giving of such consent or approval by Lender is or may be conditioned upon the receipt of a Rating Agency Confirmation, or, in accordance with the terms of the transaction documents relating to a Securitization, a Rating Agency Confirmation is required in order for such action to be taken by Borrower or the consent of Lender to be given, or, following or resulting from a default by Borrower or the Loan becoming a specially serviced loan, a Rating Agency Confirmation is otherwise required in connection with the servicing of the Loan or the administration of the securitization trust, Borrower shall provide any indemnities required and pay all of the costs and expenses of Lender, Lender’s servicer and each Rating Agency in connection therewith (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses), and, if applicable, shall pay any fees imposed by any Rating Agency as a condition to the delivery of such confirmation.

In the event (a) that the Mortgage is foreclosed in whole or in part, (b) of the bankruptcy, insolvency, rehabilitation or other similar proceeding in respect of Borrower or any of its constituent Persons or an assignment by Borrower or any of its constituent Persons for the benefit of its creditors, or (c) Lender exercises any of its other remedies under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, Borrower shall be chargeable with and agrees to pay all costs of collection and defense, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, incurred by Lender or Borrower in connection therewith and in connection with any appellate proceeding or post-judgment action involved therein, together with all required service or use taxes, all of which shall be deemed part of the Debt. In addition, Borrower shall be responsible for any fees and expenses of Lender or any servicer, trustee and any third-party fees and expenses, including, without limitation, special servicing fees, work-out fees, liquidation fees, and reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements in connection with a modification or restructuring of the Loan, special servicing or work-out of the Loan or enforcement of the Loan Documents.

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

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.

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.

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.

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 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.

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.

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 the 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 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 Property in preference to every other claimant whatsoever.

Borrower hereby expressly waives and releases, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the pleading of any statute of limitations as a defense to payment of the Debt or performance of its Other Obligations.

Borrower hereby waives the right to assert a counterclaim, other than a compulsory counterclaim, in any action or proceeding brought against it by Lender or its agents.

This Agreement shall be governed, construed, applied and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State and applicable laws of the United States of America.

Wherever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable Legal Requirements, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable Legal Requirements, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

To the extent Borrower makes a payment or payments to Lender, which payment or proceeds or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any Creditors Rights Laws, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then, to the extent of such payment or proceeds received, the obligations hereunder or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continue in full force and effect, as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by Lender.

This Agreement and all covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made herein and in the certificates delivered pursuant hereto shall survive the making by Lender of the Loan and the execution and delivery to Lender of the Note, and shall continue in full force and effect so long as all or any of the Debt is outstanding and unpaid unless a longer period is expressly set forth herein or in the other Loan Documents. Whenever in this Agreement any of the parties hereto is referred to, such reference shall be deemed to include the legal representatives, successors and assigns of such party. All covenants, promises and agreements in this Agreement, by or on behalf of Borrower, shall inure to the benefit of the legal representatives, successors and assigns of Lender.

Whenever pursuant to this Agreement, Lender exercises any right given to it to approve or disapprove, or any arrangement or term is to be satisfactory to Lender, the decision of Lender to approve or disapprove or to decide whether arrangements or terms are satisfactory or not satisfactory shall (except as is otherwise specifically herein provided) be in the sole discretion of Lender and shall be final and conclusive.

The Article and/or Section headings and the Table of Contents in this Agreement are included herein for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement for any other purpose.

The Schedules annexed hereto are hereby incorporated herein as a part of this Agreement with the same effect as if set forth in the body hereof.

Any assignee of Lender’s interest in and to this Agreement, the Note and the other Loan Documents shall take the same free and clear of all offsets, counterclaims or defenses which are unrelated to such documents which Borrower may otherwise have against any assignor of such documents, and no such unrelated counterclaim or defense shall be interposed or asserted by Borrower in any action or proceeding brought by any such assignee upon such documents and any such right to interpose or assert any such unrelated offset, counterclaim or defense in any such action or proceeding is hereby expressly waived by Borrower.

Section 20.6. No Joint Venture or Partnership; No Third Party Beneficiaries

(a) Borrower and Lender intend that the relationships created hereunder and under the other Loan Documents be solely that of borrower and lender. Nothing herein or therein is intended to create a joint venture, partnership, tenancy-in-common, or joint tenancy relationship between Borrower and Lender nor to grant Lender any interest in the Property other than that of mortgagee, beneficiary or lender.

(b) This Agreement and the other Loan Documents are solely for the benefit of Lender and Borrower and nothing contained in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to confer upon anyone other than Lender and Borrower any right to insist upon or to enforce the performance or observance of any of the obligations contained herein or therein. All conditions to the obligations of Lender to make the Loan hereunder are imposed solely and exclusively for the benefit of Lender and no other Person shall have standing to require satisfaction of such conditions in accordance with their terms or be entitled to assume that Lender will refuse to make the Loan in the absence of strict compliance with any or all thereof and no other Person shall under any circumstances be deemed to be a beneficiary of such conditions, any or all of which may be freely waived in whole or in part by Lender if, in Lender’s sole discretion, Lender deems it advisable or desirable to do so.

(c) The general partners, members, principals and (if Borrower is a trust) beneficial owners of Borrower are experienced in the ownership and operation of properties similar to the Property, and Borrower and Lender are relying solely upon such expertise and business plan in connection with the ownership and operation of the Property.

(f) Borrower recognizes and acknowledges that in accepting this Agreement, the Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents, Lender is expressly and primarily relying on the truth and accuracy of the representations and warranties set forth in Article 4 of this Agreement without any obligation to investigate the Property and notwithstanding any investigation of the Property by Lender; that such reliance existed on the part of Lender prior to the date hereof, that the warranties and representations are a material inducement to Lender in making the Loan; and that Lender would not be willing to make the Loan and accept this Agreement, the Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents in the absence of the warranties and representations as set forth in Article 4 of this Agreement.

All news releases, publicity or advertising by Borrower or its Affiliates through any media intended to reach the general public which refers to the Loan, Lender, Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, or any of their Affiliates shall be subject to the prior written approval of Lender, not to be unreasonably withheld. Lender shall be permitted to make any news releases, publicity or advertising by Lender or its Affiliates through any media intended to reach the general public which refers to the Loan, the Property, Borrower and their respective Affiliates without the approval of Borrower or any such Persons. Borrower also agrees that Lender may share any information pertaining to the Loan with Bank of America Corporation, including its bank subsidiaries, Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated and any other Affiliates of the foregoing, in connection with the sale or transfer of the Loan or any Participations and/or Securities created.

In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and any of the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Agreement shall control. The parties hereto acknowledge that they were represented by competent counsel in connection with the negotiation, drafting and execution of the Loan Documents and that such Loan Documents shall not be subject to the principle of construing their meaning against the party which drafted same. Borrower acknowledges that, with respect to the Loan, Borrower shall rely solely on its own judgment and advisors in entering into the Loan without relying in any manner on any statements, representations or recommendations of Lender or any parent, subsidiary or Affiliate of Lender. Lender shall not be subject to any limitation whatsoever in the exercise of any rights or remedies available to it under any of the Loan Documents or any other agreements or instruments which govern the Loan by virtue of the ownership by it or any parent, subsidiary or Affiliate of Lender of any equity interest any of them may acquire in Borrower, and Borrower hereby irrevocably waives the right to raise any defense or take any action on the basis of the foregoing with respect to Lender’s exercise of any such rights or remedies. Borrower acknowledges that Lender engages in the business of real estate financings and other real estate transactions and investments which may be viewed as adverse to or competitive with the business of Borrower or its Affiliates.

This Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents may be executed in any number of duplicate originals, and each duplicate original shall be deemed to be an original. This Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents (and each duplicate original) also may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which together constitute a fully executed agreement even though all signatures do not appear on the same document.

If the Borrower consists of more than one Person or entity, the obligations and liabilities of each such Person hereunder are joint and several.

This Agreement and the other Loan Documents contain the entire agreement of the parties hereto and thereto in respect of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and all prior agreements among or between such parties, whether oral or written between Borrower and Lender are superseded by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
