PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS.

GENERAL

Acadia Realty Trust (the “Trust”) was formed on March 4, 1993 as a Maryland real estate investment trust (“REIT”). All references to “Acadia,” “we,” “us,” “our,” and “Company” refer to the Trust and its consolidated subsidiaries. We are a fully integrated, self-managed and self-administered equity REIT focused primarily on the ownership, acquisition, redevelopment and management of retail properties, including neighborhood and community shopping centers and mixed-use properties with retail components. We currently operate 79 properties, which we own or have an ownership interest in. These assets are located primarily in the Northeast, Mid-Atlantic and Midwestern regions of the United States and, in total, comprise approximately eight million square feet. We also have private equity investments in other retail real estate related opportunities including investments for which we provide operational support to the operating ventures in which we have a minority equity interest.

All of our investments are held by, and all of our operations are conducted through, Acadia Realty Limited Partnership (the “Operating Partnership”) and entities in which the Operating Partnership owns a controlling interest. As of December 31, 2010, the Trust controlled 99% of the Operating Partnership as the sole general partner. As the general partner, the Trust is entitled to share, in proportion to its percentage interest, in the cash distributions and profits and losses of the Operating Partnership. The limited partners generally represent entities or individuals which contributed their interests in certain assets or entities to the Operating Partnership in exchange for common or preferred units of limited partnership interest (“Common OP Units” or “Preferred OP Units”, respectively, and collectively, “OP Units”). Limited partners holding Common OP Units are generally entitled to exchange their units on a one-for-one basis for our common shares of beneficial interest (“Common Shares”). This structure is referred to as an umbrella partnership REIT or “UPREIT”.

BUSINESS OBJECTIVES AND STRATEGIES
Our primary business objective is to acquire and manage commercial retail properties that will provide cash for distributions to shareholders while also creating the potential for capital appreciation to enhance investor returns. We focus on the following fundamentals to achieve this objective:

 

 

Own and operate a Core Portfolio (as defined in Item 2 of this Form 10-K) of community and neighborhood shopping centers and main street retail located in markets with strong demographics and generate internal growth within the Core Portfolio through aggressive redevelopment, re-anchoring and/or leasing activities.

 

 

Maintain a strong and flexible balance sheet through conservative financial practices while ensuring access to sufficient capital to fund future growth.

 

 

Generate external growth through an opportunistic yet disciplined acquisition program. We target transactions with high inherent opportunity for the creation of additional value through redevelopment and leasing and/or transactions requiring creative capital structuring to facilitate the transactions. These transactions may include other types of commercial real estate besides those which we currently invest in through our Core Portfolio. These may also include joint ventures with private equity investors for the purpose of making investments in operating retailers with significant embedded value in their real estate assets.

Investment Strategy — External Growth through Opportunistic Acquisition Platforms

The requirements that acquisitions be accretive on a long-term basis based on our cost of capital, as well as increase the overall portfolio quality and value, are core to our acquisition program. As such, we constantly evaluate the blended cost of equity and debt and adjust the amount of acquisition activity to align the level of investment activity with capital flows. We may also engage in discussions with public and private entities regarding business combinations. In addition to our direct investments in real estate assets, we have also capitalized on our expertise in the acquisition, redevelopment, leasing and management of retail real estate by establishing discretionary opportunity funds in which we earn, in addition to a pro-rata return based on our equity interest and carried interest (“Promote”), fees and priority distributions for our services. To date, we have launched three opportunity funds (“Opportunity Funds”), Acadia Strategic Opportunity Fund, LP (“Fund I”), Acadia Strategic Opportunity Fund II, LLC (“Fund II”) and Acadia Strategic Opportunity Fund III, LLC (“Fund III”). Due to the level of our control, we consolidate these Opportunity Funds for financial reporting purposes.

Fund I
During September of 2001, we and four of our institutional shareholders formed Fund I, and during August of 2004 formed a limited liability company, Acadia Mervyn Investors I, LLC (“Mervyns I”), in which the investors, including the Operating Partnership, committed a total of $90.0 million for the purpose of acquiring real estate assets. The Operating Partnership is the general partner or managing member with a 22.2% interest. In addition to a pro-rata return on its invested equity, the Operating Partnership is entitled to a Promote based upon certain investment return thresholds. Cash flow was distributed pro-rata to the partners (including the Operating Partnership) until they earned a 9% cumulative return (“Preferred Return”) and of all capital contributions were returned.

4


Fund I investors have received a return of all of their capital invested in Fund I and Mervyns I and their Preferred Return. Accordingly, all cash flow is now distributed 20% to the Operating Partnership as a Promote and 80% to the partners (including the Operating Partnership). The Operating Partnership also earns fees and/or priority distributions for asset management services equal to 1.5% of the allocated invested equity, as well as for property management, leasing, legal and construction services. All such fees and priority distributions are reflected as a reduction in the noncontrolling interest share in income from Opportunity Funds in the Consolidated Financial Statements beginning on page F-1 of this Form 10-K.

As of December 31, 2010, there were 20 assets comprising approximately 0.9 million square feet remaining in Fund I in which the Operating Partnership’s interest in cash flow and income is 37.8% as a result of the Promote.

Fund II

Following our success with Fund I, during June of 2004 we formed a second, larger Opportunity Fund, Fund II, and during August of 2004, formed Acadia Mervyn Investors II, LLC (“Mervyns II”), with the investors from Fund I as well as two additional institutional investors, whereby the investors, including the Operating Partnership, committed capital totaling $300.0 million. The Operating Partnership is the managing member with a 20% interest in Fund II and Mervyns II and can invest the committed equity on a discretionary basis within the parameters defined in the Fund II and Mervyns II operating agreements. The terms and structure of Fund II and Mervyns II are substantially the same as Fund I and Mervyns I with the exception that the Preferred Return is 8%. As of December 31, 2010, $265.2 million of Fund II’s and Mervyns II’s capital was invested and the balance of $34.8 million is expected to be utilized to complete development activities for existing Fund II investments.

Given the market conditions for commercial real estate at the time Fund II was formed, we channeled our acquisition efforts through Fund II in two opportunistic strategies described below – the New York Urban/Infill Redevelopment Initiative and the Retailer Controlled Property Venture, which are more fully described below.

New York Urban/Infill Redevelopment Initiative

During September of 2004, through Fund II, we launched our New York Urban/Infill Redevelopment Initiative. We believe that retailers continue to recognize that many of the nation’s urban markets are underserved from a retail standpoint, and we have capitalized on this situation by investing in redevelopment projects in dense urban areas where retail tenant demand has effectively surpassed the supply of available sites. During 2004, Fund II, together with an unaffiliated partner, P/A Associates, LLC (“P/A”), formed Acadia-P/A Holding Company, LLC (“Acadia-P/A”) for the purpose of acquiring, constructing, developing, owning, operating, leasing and managing certain retail or mixed-use real estate properties in the New York City metropolitan area. P/A agreed to invest 10% of required capital up to a maximum of $2.2 million and Fund II, the managing member, agreed to invest the balance to acquire assets in which Acadia-P/A agreed to invest. See Item 7 of this Form 10-K for further information on the Acadia-P/A Joint Venture as detailed in “Liquidity and Capital Resources – New York Urban/Infill Redevelopment Initiative.” To date, Fund II has invested in nine projects, eight of which are in conjunction with P/A, as discussed further in “—PROPERTY ACQUISITIONS– New York Urban/Infill Redevelopment Initiative” below in this Item 1.

Retailer Controlled Property Venture (the “RCP Venture”)

During 2004, through Funds I and II or affiliates thereof, we entered into an association, known as the RCP Venture, with Klaff Realty, L.P. (“Klaff”) and Lubert-Adler Management, Inc. (“Lubert-Adler”) for the purpose of making investments in surplus or underutilized properties owned by retailers. The RCP Venture is neither a single entity nor a specific investment. Any member of this group has the option of participating, or not, in any individual investment and each individual investment has been made on a stand-alone basis through a separate limited liability company. These investments have been made through different investment vehicles with different affiliated and unaffiliated investors and different economics to us. The initial size of the RCP Venture was expected to be approximately $300.0 million in equity, of which our share would be $60.0 million. Based on the investment opportunities, the size of the RCP Venture could be and was expanded. Mervyns I and II and Fund II have invested a total of $62.2 million in the RCP Venture to date on a non-recourse basis. Investments under the RCP Venture are structured as separate joint ventures as there may be other investors participating in certain investments in addition to Klaff, Lubert-Adler and us. While we are not required to invest any additional capital into any of these investments, should additional capital be required and we elect not to contribute our share, our proportionate share in the investment will be reduced. Cash flow from any RCP Venture investment is distributed to the participants until they have received a 10% cumulative return on and a full return of all capital contributions. Thereafter, remaining cash flow is distributed 20% to Klaff (“Klaff’s Promote”) and 80% to the partners (including Klaff). As the participants have received a return of all of their capital invested and their unpaid cumulative return, all cash flow is now distributed 20% to Klaff as Klaff’s Promote and then 80% to the partners. The Operating Partnership may also earn market-rate fees for property management, leasing and construction services on behalf of the RCP Venture. While we are primarily a passive partner in the investments made through the RCP Venture, historically we have provided our services in reviewing potential acquisitions and operating and redevelopment assistance in areas where we have both a presence and expertise. We continue to seek to invest opportunistically with the RCP Venture primarily in any of the following four ways:

 

 

Invest in operating retailers to control their real estate through private equity joint ventures

5



 

 

Work with financially healthy retailers to create value from their surplus real estate

 

 

Acquire properties, designation rights or other control of real estate or leases associated with retailers in bankruptcy

 

 

Complete sale-leasebacks with retailers in need of capital

Our RCP Venture investments are further discussed in “—PROPERTY ACQUISITIONS – RCP Venture” below in this Item 1.

Fund III

Following the success of Fund I and the full commitment of Fund II, Fund III was formed during 2007, with fourteen institutional investors, including a majority of the investors from Fund I and Fund II, whereby the investors, including the Operating Partnership, committed capital totaling $502.5 million. The Operating Partnership’s share of the committed capital is $100.0 million and it is the sole managing member with a 19.9% interest in Fund III and can invest the committed equity on a discretionary basis within the parameters defined in the Fund III operating agreement. The terms and structure of Fund III are substantially the same as Fund I and Fund II with the exception that the Preferred Return is 6%. As of December 31, 2010, $96.5 million of Fund III’s capital was invested. To date, Fund III has invested in 15 projects as discussed further in “—PROPERTY ACQUISITIONS” below in this Item 1.

Notes Receivable, Preferred Equity and Other Real Estate Related Investments

We may also invest in notes receivable, preferred equity investments, other real estate interests and other investments. As of December 31, 2010, our notes receivable investments aggregated $89.2 million, and were collateralized by either the properties (either first or second mortgage liens) or the borrower’s ownership interest in the properties. In addition, certain notes receivable are personally guaranteed by principals of the borrowers. Interest rates on our notes receivable, mezzanine loan investments and preferred equity investment, ranged from 10% to 24% with maturities that range from demand notes to January 2017.

Capital Strategy — Balance Sheet Focus and Access to Capital

Our primary capital objective is to maintain a strong and flexible balance sheet through conservative financial practices, including moderate leverage levels, while ensuring access to sufficient capital to fund future growth. We intend to continue financing acquisitions and property redevelopment with sources of capital determined by management to be the most appropriate based on, among other factors, availability in the current capital markets, pricing and other commercial and financial terms. The sources of capital may include the issuance of public equity, unsecured debt, mortgage and construction loans, and other capital alternatives including the issuance of OP Units. We manage our interest rate risk primarily through the use of fixed rate debt and, where we use variable rate debt, we use certain derivative instruments, including London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) swap agreements and interest rate caps as discussed further in Item 7A of this Form 10-K.

During April 2009, we issued 5.75 million Common Shares and generated net proceeds of approximately $65.0 million. The proceeds were primarily used to purchase a portion of our outstanding convertible notes payable as discussed below and pay down existing lines of credit.

During December of 2006 and January of 2007, we issued $115.0 million of 3.75% unsecured Convertible Notes (the “Notes”). See Note 9 to our Consolidated Financial Statements, which begin on page F-1 of this Form 10-K for a discussion of the terms and conditions of the Notes. The $112.1 million in proceeds, net of related costs, were used to retire variable rate debt, provide for future Opportunity Fund capital commitments and for general working capital purposes. Through December 31, 2010, we purchased $65.2 million in principal amount of the Notes, all at an average discount of approximately 19%.

Operating Strategy — Experienced Management Team with Proven Track Record

Our senior management team has decades of experience in the real estate industry. We believe our management team has demonstrated the ability to create value through anchor recycling, property redevelopment and strategic non-core dispositions. We have capitalized on our expertise in the acquisition, redevelopment, leasing and management of retail real estate by establishing joint ventures, such as the Opportunity Funds, in which we earn, in addition to a return on our equity interest and Promote, fees and priority distributions. In connection with these joint ventures we have launched several successful acquisition platforms including our New York Urban/Infill Redevelopment Initiative and RCP Venture.

Operating functions such as leasing, property management, construction, finance and legal (collectively, the “Operating Departments”) are generally provided by our personnel, providing for fully integrated property management and development. By incorporating the Operating Departments in the acquisition process, acquisitions are appropriately priced giving effect to each asset’s specific risks and returns. Also, because of the Operating Departments involvement with, and corresponding understanding of, the acquisition process, transition time is minimized and management can immediately execute on its strategic plan for each asset.

We typically hold our Core Portfolio properties for long-term investment. As such, we continuously review the existing portfolio and implement programs to renovate and modernize targeted centers to enhance the property’s market position. This in turn strengthens the competitive position of the leasing program to attract and retain quality tenants, increasing cash flow and consequently property

6


value. We also periodically identify certain properties for disposition and redeploy the capital to existing centers or acquisitions with greater potential for capital appreciation. Our Core Portfolio consists primarily of neighborhood and community shopping centers, which are generally dominant centers in high barrier-to-entry supply constrained markets and are principally anchored by supermarkets and necessity-based retailers. We believe these attributes enable our properties to better withstand the current post recessionary period.

During 2010, 2009 and 2008 we sold two non-core properties and redeployed capital to acquire one retail property as further discussed in “—ASSET SALES AND CAPITAL/ASSET RECYCLING” below in this Item 1.

PROPERTY ACQUISITIONS

RCP Venture

Mervyns Department Stores

In September 2004, we made our first RCP Venture investment. Through Mervyns I and Mervyns II, we invested in a consortium to acquire Mervyns consisting of 262 stores (“REALCO”) and its retail operation (“OPCO”) from Target Corporation. Our share of this investment was $23.2 million. Subsequent to the initial acquisition of Mervyns, we made additional investments of $2.9 million. To date, REALCO has disposed of a significant portion of the portfolio. In addition, during November 2007, we sold our interest in, and as a result, have no further investment in OPCO. Through December 31, 2010, we have received distributions from this investment totaling $46.0 million.

Through December 31, 2010, we, through Mervyns I and Mervyns II, made additional investments in locations that are separate from these original investments (“Add-On Investments”) in Mervyns totaling $6.5 million and have received distributions totaling $1.7 million.

Albertson’s

During June of 2006, the RCP Venture made its second investment as part of an investment consortium, acquiring Albertson’s and Cub Foods, of which our share was $20.7 million. Through December 31, 2010, we have received distributions from this investment totaling $77.1 million, including $11.4 million received in 2010.

Through December 31, 2010, we, through Mervyns II, made Add-On Investments in Albertson’s totaling $2.4 million and received distributions totaling $1.2 million.

Other RCP Investments

Through December 31, 2010, we, through Fund II, made investments of $1.1 million in Shopko, $0.7 million in Marsh, and $2.0 million in Add-On Investments in Marsh. As of December 31, 2010, we have received distributions totaling $1.7 million from our Shopko investment and $2.6 million from our Marsh and Marsh Add-On Investments.

During July of 2007, the RCP Venture acquired a portfolio of 87 retail properties from Rex Stores Corporation (“Rex”), in which we invested through Mervyns II. Our share of this investment was $2.7 million. As of December 31, 2010, we have received distributions from Rex totaling $0.8 million.

New York Urban/Infill Redevelopment Initiative

As of December 31, 2010, we had ten New York Urban/Infill Redevelopment Initiative projects. Construction is substantially complete at seven of the projects, one is under construction and two are in the design phase as follows:

Construction Substantially Complete

Fordham Place — During September of 2004, Acadia-P/A purchased 400 East Fordham Road, Bronx, New York. Construction of a 119,000 square foot retail component and 157,000 square foot office tower are complete. The retail component is 100% occupied and the office component is 30% occupied. Acadia-P/A’s total cost of the project was approximately $134.0 million.

Pelham Manor Shopping Plaza — During October of 2004, Acadia-P/A entered into a 95-year, inclusive of extension options, ground lease to redevelop a 16-acre site in Pelham Manor, Westchester County, New York. We demolished the existing industrial and warehouse buildings, and completed construction of a 229,000 square foot community retail center and a 90,000 square foot self-storage facility at a total cost of approximately $64.0 million. Home Depot was originally slated to anchor the project, but announced its decision to curtail plans for expansion. As part of our lease termination agreement with Home Depot, we purchased the building that Home Depot had constructed on the site for $10.0 million, representing approximately half of their cost of construction. The retail center is currently 91% leased and anchored by a BJ’s Wholesale Club.

216th Street — During December of 2005, Acadia-P/A acquired a parking garage located at 10th Avenue and 216th Street in the Inwood section of Manhattan. During 2007, we completed the construction of a 60,000 square foot office building and we relocated an agency of the City of New York (“NYC”), which was a tenant at another of our New York Urban/Infill Redevelopment Initiative projects, to this location. Acadia-P/A’s total cost for the project, which also includes a 100-space rooftop parking deck, was approximately $28.0 million.

Liberty Avenue — During December of 2005, Acadia-P/A acquired the remaining 40-year term of a leasehold interest in land located at Liberty Avenue and 98th Street in Ozone Park (Queens), New York. Construction of approximately 30,000 square feet of retail anchored by a CVS drug store and a 98,500 square foot self-storage facility is complete and Acadia-P/A’s total cost of the redevelopment was approximately $15.0 million.

161st Street — During August of 2005, Acadia-P/A purchased 244-268 161st Street located in the Bronx, New York for $49.3 million. The redevelopment plan for this currently 83% occupied, 10-story office building, is to recapture and convert street level office space into retail. Additional redevelopment costs to Acadia-P/A are anticipated to be approximately $17.4 million.

Atlantic Avenue — During May of 2007, we, through Fund II and in partnership with Post Management, LLC (“Storage Post”), acquired a property on Atlantic Avenue in Brooklyn, New York. Storage Post is our unaffiliated partner in our self-storage portfolio (see below) and at two of our other New York Urban/Infill Redevelopment Initiative projects with a self-storage component. During 2009, we completed construction of the 110,000 square feet, six-story storage facility and commenced operations. The total cost of the project was approximately $22.0 million.

Canarsie — During October of 2007, Acadia-P/A acquired a 530,000 square foot warehouse building in Canarsie, Brooklyn for approximately $21.0 million. The development included the construction of a 279,000 square foot mixed-use project consisting of retail and office. The total cost of the redevelopment, including acquisition costs, was approximately $90.0 million. We had executed a lease with Home Depot to anchor the project. However, during 2008, Home Depot terminated their lease and paid us a fee of $24.5 million. Construction was substantially complete in November 2010 and the property is 85% leased. The project is anchored by BJ’s Wholesale Club and the New York City Police Department.

Under Construction

CityPoint — During June of 2007, Acadia-P/A and an unaffiliated joint venture partner, California Urban Investment Partners, LLC (“CUIP”) purchased the leasehold interests in The Gallery at Fulton Street in downtown Brooklyn for approximately $115.0 million, with an option to purchase the fee position, which is owned by the City of New York, at a later date. On June 30, 2010, Acadia-P/A acquired all of CUIP’s interest in CityPoint for a total consideration of $9.2 million and the assumption of CUIP’s share of debt of $19.6 million. The development will proceed in three phases. Construction has commenced on Phase 1, a four-story retail building of approximately 50,000 square feet. Phase 2 will consist of approximately 500,000 square feet of additional retail. Phase 2 is also expected to contain an affordable and market-rate residential component. Phase 3 is anticipated to be a stand-alone mixed use, but primarily residential building, of approximately 700,000 square feet.

In Design

Sherman Plaza — During April of 2005, Acadia-P/A acquired 4650 Broadway located in the Washington Heights/Inwood section of Manhattan. The property, which was occupied by NYC and a commercial parking garage, was acquired for a purchase price of

8


$25.0 million. During 2007 we relocated NYC to Acadia-P/A’s 216th Street redevelopment as discussed above and closed the parking garage. We are currently reviewing various alternatives to redevelop the site to include retail and office components.

Sheepshead Bay — During November of 2007, Fund III acquired a property in Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn for approximately $20.0 million. The project is currently in the design phase and we have demolished one of two buildings on the existing site and expect to develop a multi-level community shopping center.

Self-Storage Portfolio

On February 29, 2008, Fund III, in conjunction with Storage Post, acquired a portfolio of eleven self-storage properties from Storage Post’s existing institutional investors for approximately $174.0 million. In addition, we, through Fund II, developed three self-storage properties as discussed above. The fourteen self-storage property portfolio, located throughout New York and New Jersey, totals approximately 1,127,000 net rentable square feet, and is operating at various stages of stabilization.

Other Investments

In addition to the RCP Venture, the New York Urban/Infill and Self-Storage Portfolio investments as discussed above, through Fund III, we have also acquired the following:

During February 2011, Fund III, in a joint venture with an unaffiliated partner, acquired a 64,600 square foot single tenant retail property located in Silver Springs, Maryland, for approximately $9.8 million.

During February 2011, Fund III, in a joint venture with an unaffiliated partner, acquired a three property portfolio (the “Portfolio”) for an aggregate purchase price of $51.9 million with $20.6 million of in-place mortgage financing assumed at closing. The Portfolio consists of three street-retail properties, aggregating 61,000 square feet, and is located in South Miami Beach, Florida.

During December 2010, Fund III, in a joint venture with an unaffiliated partner, purchased the White City Shopping Center for $56.0 million. The operating property is a 255,000 square foot shopping center located in Shrewsbury, MA.

During June 2010, Fund III, in a joint venture with an unaffiliated partner, invested in an entity formed for the purpose of providing management services to owners of self-storage properties, including the 14 locations currently owned through Fund II and Fund III. To date, Fund III has invested $2.1 million in this entity.

During January 2009, we purchased Cortlandt Towne Center for $78.0 million. The operating property is a 641,000 square foot shopping center located in Westchester County, New York.

During November 2007, we acquired 125 Main Street, Westport, Connecticut for approximately $17.0 million. Redevelopment efforts have commenced, at an estimated cost of $8.4 million, with the execution of a lease with Gap Inc. to anchor the property. Gap is anticipated to open in the second half of 2011.

Core Portfolio

See Item 2. PROPERTIES for the definition of our Core Portfolio.

During April of 2008, the Operating Partnership acquired a 20,000 square foot single tenant retail property located on 17th Street near 5th Avenue in Manhattan, New York for $9.7 million.

During March of 2007, the Operating Partnership purchased a 52,000 square foot single-tenant building located at 1545 East Service Road in Staten Island, New York for $17.0 million and a 10,000 square foot retail commercial condominium at 200 West 54th Street located in Manhattan, New York for $36.4 million.

Notes Receivable, Preferred Equity and Other Real Estate Related Investments

During December 2009, the Operating Partnership made a loan for $8.6 million which bears interest at 14.5% and matures on June 30, 2011.

During June 2008, the Operating Partnership made a $40.0 million preferred equity investment in a portfolio of 18 properties located primarily in Georgetown, Washington D.C. The portfolio consists of 306,000 square feet of principally retail space. During September 2010, this investment was fully liquidated. The Operating Partnership received $40.0 million of invested capital along with $9.4 million of accrued preferred return. The Operating Partnership has an additional Georgetown loan receivable of $8.0 million, collateralized by a 5 property portfolio.

During July 2008, the Operating Partnership made a $34.0 million mezzanine loan, which is collateralized by an interest in a mixed-use retail and residential development at 72nd Street and Broadway on the Upper West Side of Manhattan.

During September 2008, Fund III made a $10.0 million first mortgage loan, which is collateralized by land located on Long Island, New York.

During March 2010, Fund I sold the Sterling Heights Shopping Center for $2.3 million. The proceeds from the sale along with Fund I’s recourse obligation of $0.6 million were used to fully liquidate the outstanding loan obligation.

During February 2009, The Kroger Co. purchased the fee at six locations in Fund I’s Kroger/Safeway Portfolio for $14.6 million, resulting in a $5.6 million gain. The Operating Partnership’s share of the gain was $1.6 million.

During April 2008, Fund I sold Haygood Shopping Center located in Virginia Beach, Virginia, for $24.9 million, resulting in a $6.8 million gain. The Operating Partnership’s share of the gain was $1.3 million.

ENVIRONMENTAL LAWS

For information relating to environmental laws that may have an impact on our business, please see “Item 1A. Risk Factors - Possible liability relating to environmental matters.”

COMPETITION

There are numerous entities that compete with us in seeking properties for acquisition and tenants that will lease space in our properties. Our competitors include other REITs, financial institutions, insurance companies, pension funds, private companies and individuals. Our properties compete for tenants with similar properties primarily on the basis of location, total occupancy costs (including base rent and operating expenses) and the design and condition of the improvements.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION ABOUT MARKET SEGMENTS

We have five reportable segments: Core Portfolio, Opportunity Funds, Self-Storage Portfolio, Notes Receivable and Other. Notes Receivable consists of the Company’s notes receivable and related interest income, Other primarily consists of management fees and interest income. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies set forth in Note 1 to our Consolidated Financial Statements, which begin on page F-1 of this Form 10-K. We evaluate property performance primarily based on net operating income before depreciation, amortization and certain nonrecurring items. Investments in our Core Portfolio are typically held long-term. Given the contemplated finite life of our Opportunity Funds, these investments are typically held for shorter terms. Fees earned by us as general partner/member of the Opportunity Funds are eliminated in our Consolidated Financial Statements. See Note 3 to our Consolidated Financial Statements, which begin on page F-1 of this Form 10-K for information regarding, among other things, revenues from external customers, a measure of profit and loss and total assets with respect to each of our segments.

CORPORATE HEADQUARTERS AND EMPLOYEES

Our executive offices are located at 1311 Mamaroneck Avenue, Suite 260, White Plains, New York 10605, and our telephone number is (914) 288-8100. As of December 31, 2010, we had 116 employees, of which 92 were located at our executive office and 24 were located at regional property management offices. None of our employees are covered by collective bargaining agreements. Management believes that its relationship with employees is good.

We intend to disclose future amendments to, or waivers from, our Code of Ethics for Senior Financial Officers in the Investor Information section of our website within four business days following the date of such amendment or waiver.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS.

If any of the following risks actually occur, our business, results of operations and financial condition would likely suffer. This section includes or refers to certain forward-looking statements. Refer to the explanation of the qualifications and limitations on such forward-looking statements discussed in the beginning of this Form 10-K.

We rely on revenues derived from major tenants.

We derive significant revenues from certain anchor tenants that occupy space in more than one center. We could be adversely affected in the event of the bankruptcy or insolvency of, or a downturn in the business of, any of our major tenants, or in the event that any such tenant does not renew its leases as they expire or renews at lower rental rates. Vacated anchor space not only would reduce rental revenues if not re-tenanted at the same rental rates but also could adversely affect the entire shopping center because of the loss of the departed anchor tenant’s customer drawing power. Loss of customer drawing power also can occur through the exercise of the right that most anchors have to vacate and prevent re-tenanting by paying rent for the balance of the lease term (“going dark”) as would the departure of a “shadow” anchor tenant that owns its own property. In addition, in the event that certain major tenants cease to occupy a property, such an action may result in a significant number of other tenants having the right to terminate their leases, or pay a reduced rent based on a percentage of the tenant’s sales, at the affected property, which could adversely affect the future income from such property (“co-tenancy”). See “Item 2. Properties—Major Tenants” for quantified information with respect to the percentage of our minimum rents received from major tenants.

12


We may not be able to renew current leases and the terms of re-letting (including the cost of concessions to tenants) may be less favorable to us than current lease terms.

Upon the expiration of current leases for space located in our properties, we may not be able to re-let all or a portion of that space, or the terms of re-letting (including the cost of concessions to tenants) may be less favorable to us than current lease terms. If we are unable to re-let promptly all or a substantial portion of the space located in our properties or if the rental rates we receive upon re-letting are significantly lower than current rates, our net income and ability to make expected distributions to our shareholders will be adversely affected due to the resulting reduction in rent receipts. There can be no assurance that we will be able to retain tenants in any of our properties upon the expiration of their leases. See “Item 2. Properties – Lease Expirations” in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information as to the scheduled lease expirations in our portfolio.

The current economic environment, while improving, may cause us to lose tenants and may impair our ability to borrow money to purchase properties, refinance existing debt or finance our current redevelopment projects.

Our operations and performance depend on general economic conditions, including the health of the consumer. The U.S. economy recently experienced a financial downturn, with a decline in consumer spending, credit tightening and high unemployment. This economic downturn has had, and may continue to have, an adverse affect on the businesses of many of our tenants. We and the Opportunity Funds may experience higher vacancy rates as well as delays in re-leasing vacant space.

The current downturn has had, and may continue to have, an unprecedented impact on the global credit markets. While we currently believe we have adequate sources of liquidity, there can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain mortgage loans to purchase additional properties, obtain financing to complete current redevelopment projects, or successfully refinance our properties as loans become due. To the extent that the availability of credit is limited, it would also adversely impact our notes receivable as counterparties may not be able to obtain the financing required to repay the loans upon maturity.

The bankruptcy of, or a downturn in the business of, any of our major tenants or a significant number of our smaller tenants may adversely affect our cash flows and property values.

The bankruptcy of, or a downturn in the business of, any of our major tenants causing them to reject their leases, or not renew their leases as they expire, or renew at lower rental rates may adversely affect our cash flows and property values. Furthermore, the impact of vacated anchor space and the potential reduction in customer traffic may adversely impact the balance of tenants at a shopping center.

Certain of our tenants have experienced financial difficulties and have filed for bankruptcy under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code (“Chapter 11 Bankruptcy”). Pursuant to bankruptcy law, tenants have the right to reject their leases. In the event the tenant exercises this right, the landlord generally has the right to file a claim for lost rent equal to the greater of either one year’s rent (including tenant expense reimbursements) for remaining terms greater than one year, or 15% of the rent remaining under the balance of the lease term, but not to exceed three years rent. Actual amounts to be received in satisfaction of those claims will be subject to the tenant’s final plan of reorganization and the availability of funds to pay its creditors.

Since January 1, 2010, there has been one significant tenant bankruptcy within our portfolio:

On December 12, 2010, the Great Atlantic & Pacific Tea Company, Inc. (“A&P”) filed for protection under Chapter 11 Bankruptcy. A&P operates in four locations in our Core Portfolio, totaling approximately 198,000 square feet. Rental revenues from A&P at these locations totaled $3.5 million, $3.4 million, and $3.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively. In addition, A&P operates in one Fund III location, totaling approximately 65,000 square feet. Rental revenues from A&P at this location totaled $1.0 million for each of the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009. A&P has availed itself of the statutory maximum time to assume or reject these leases which is July 10, 2011. With respect to two of these leases, A&P has received a bankruptcy court order to close the two locations on or around April 15, 2011 and to exit the locations on or around April 30, 2011.

There are risks relating to investments in real estate.

Real property investments are subject to multiple risks. Real estate values are affected by a number of factors, including: changes in the general economic climate, local conditions (such as an oversupply of space or a reduction in demand for real estate in an area), the quality and philosophy of management, competition from other available space, the ability of the owner to provide adequate maintenance and insurance and to control variable operating costs. Shopping centers, in particular, may be affected by changing perceptions of retailers or shoppers regarding the safety, convenience and attractiveness of the shopping center and by the overall climate for the retail industry. Real estate values are also affected by such factors as government regulations, interest rate levels, the availability of financing and potential liability under, and changes in, environmental, zoning, tax and other laws. A significant portion of our income is derived from rental income from real property. Our income and cash flow would be adversely affected if a significant number of our tenants were unable to rent our vacant space to viable tenants on economically favorable terms. In the event of default by a tenant, we may experience delays in enforcing, and incur substantial costs to enforce, our rights as a landlord. In addition, certain significant expenditures associated with each equity investment (such as mortgage payments, real estate taxes and maintenance costs) are generally not reduced even though there may be a reduction in income from the investment.

13


Our ability to change our portfolio is limited because real estate investments are illiquid.

Equity investments in real estate are relatively illiquid and, therefore, our ability to change our portfolio promptly in response to changed conditions is limited. Our Board of Trustees may establish investment criteria or limitations as it deems appropriate, but currently does not limit the number of properties in which we may seek to invest or on the concentration of investments in any one geographic region. We could change our investment, disposition and financing policies without a vote of our shareholders.

We could become highly leveraged, resulting in increased risk of default on our obligations and in an increase in debt service requirements, which could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations and our ability to pay distributions.

We have incurred, and expect to continue to incur, indebtedness to support our activities. Neither our Declaration of Trust nor any policy statement formally adopted by our Board of Trustees limits either the total amount of indebtedness or the specified percentage of indebtedness that we may incur. Accordingly, we could become more highly leveraged, resulting in increased risk of default on our obligations and in an increase in debt service requirements, which could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations and our ability to make distributions.

Interest expense on our variable rate debt as of December 31, 2010 would increase by $4.4 million annually for a 100 basis point increase in interest rates. We may seek additional variable-rate financing if and when pricing and other commercial and financial terms warrant. As such, we would consider hedging against the interest rate risk related to such additional variable rate debt, primarily through interest rate swaps but can use other means.

We enter into interest rate hedging transactions, including interest rate swaps and cap agreements, with counterparties. There can be no guarantee that the future financial condition of these counterparties will enable them to fulfill their obligations under these agreements.

Competition may adversely affect our ability to purchase properties and to attract and retain tenants.

There are numerous commercial developers, real estate companies, financial institutions and other investors with greater financial resources than we have that compete with us in seeking properties for acquisition and tenants who will lease space in our properties. Our competitors include other REITs, financial institutions, insurance companies, pension funds, private companies and individuals. This competition may result in a higher cost for properties that we wish to pay. In addition, retailers at our properties face increasing competition from outlet malls, discount shopping clubs, Internet commerce, direct mail and telemarketing, which could (i) reduce rents payable to us; (ii) reduce our ability to attract and retain tenants at our properties leading to increased vacancy rates at our properties.

We could be adversely affected by poor market conditions where properties are geographically concentrated.

Our performance depends on the economic conditions in markets in which our properties are concentrated. We have significant exposure to the greater New York region, from which we derive 38% of the annual base rents within our Core Portfolio. Our operating results could be adversely affected if market conditions, such as an oversupply of space or a reduction in demand for real estate, in this area occurs.

We have pursued, and may in the future continue to pursue extensive growth opportunities, which may result in significant demands on our operational, administrative and financial resources.

We are pursuing extensive growth opportunities. This expansion places significant demands on our operational, administrative and financial resources. The continued growth of our real estate portfolio can be expected to continue to place a significant strain on our resources. Our future performance will depend in part on our ability to successfully attract and retain qualified management personnel to manage the growth and operations of our business. In addition, the acquired properties may fail to operate at expected levels due to the numerous factors that may affect the value of real estate. There can be no assurance that we will have sufficient resources to identify and manage the properties.

Our inability to carry out our growth strategy could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

Our earnings growth strategy is based on the acquisition and development of additional properties, including acquisitions through co-investment programs such as our Opportunity Funds. In the context of our business plan, “redevelopment” generally means an expansion or renovation of an existing property. The consummation of any future acquisitions will be subject to satisfactory completion of our extensive valuation analysis and due diligence review and to the negotiation of definitive documentation. We cannot be sure that we will be able to implement our strategy because we may have difficulty finding new properties, negotiating with new or existing tenants or securing acceptable financing.

Acquisitions of additional properties entail the risk that investments will fail to perform in accordance with expectations, including operating and leasing expectations. Redevelopment is subject to numerous risks, including risks of construction delays, cost overruns

14


or uncontrollable events that may increase project costs, new project commencement risks such as the receipt of zoning, occupancy and other required governmental approvals and permits, and incurring development costs in connection with projects that are not pursued to completion.

A component of our growth strategy is through private-equity type investments made through our RCP Venture. These include investments in operating retailers. The inability of the retailers to operate profitably would have an adverse impact on income realized from these investments. Through our investments in joint ventures we have also invested in operating businesses that have operational risk in addition to the risks associated with real estate investments, including among other risks, human capital issues, adequate supply of product and material, and merchandising issues.

We operate through a partnership structure, which could have an adverse effect on our ability to manage our assets.

Our primary property-owning vehicle is the Operating Partnership, of which we are the general partner. Our acquisition of properties through the Operating Partnership in exchange for interests in the Operating Partnership may permit certain tax deferral advantages to limited partners who contribute properties to the Operating Partnership. Since properties contributed to the Operating Partnership may have unrealized gain attributable to the difference between the fair market value and adjusted tax basis in such properties prior to contribution, the sale of such properties could cause adverse tax consequences to the limited partners who contributed such properties. Although we, as the general partner of the Operating Partnership, generally have no obligation to consider the tax consequences of our actions to any limited partner, there can be no assurance that the Operating Partnership will not acquire properties in the future subject to material restrictions designed to minimize the adverse tax consequences to the limited partners who contribute such properties. Such restrictions could result in significantly reduced flexibility to manage our assets.

Exclusivity obligation to our Opportunity Funds.

Under the terms of our Fund III joint venture, which is similar to the terms of Fund I and Fund II, we are required to first offer to Fund III all of our opportunities to acquire retail shopping centers with limited exceptions. We may only pursue opportunities to acquire retail shopping centers directly if (i) the ownership of the acquisition opportunity by Fund III would create a material conflict of interest for us; (ii) we require the acquisition opportunity for a “like-kind” exchange; or (iii) the consideration payable for the acquisition opportunity is our Common Shares, OP Units or other securities. As a result, we may not be able to make attractive acquisitions directly and may only receive a minority interest in such acquisitions through Fund III.

Risks of joint ventures.

Partnership or joint venture investments may involve risks not otherwise present for investments made solely by us, including the possibility that our partner or co-venturer might become bankrupt, and that our partner or co-venturer may take action contrary to our instructions, requests, policies or objectives, including our policy with respect to maintaining our qualification as a REIT. Other risks of joint venture investments include impasse on decisions, such as a sale, because neither we nor a joint venture partner would have full control over the joint venture. Also, there is no limitation under our organizational documents as to the amount of funds that may be invested in joint ventures.

Any disputes that may arise between joint venture partners and us may result in litigation or arbitration that would increase our expenses and prevent our officers and/or directors from focusing their time and effort on our business. Consequently, actions by or disputes with joint venture partners might result in subjecting properties owned by the joint venture to additional risk. In addition, we may in certain circumstances be liable for the actions of our third-party joint venture partners.

During 2010, 2009 and 2008, our Fund I and Mervyns I joint ventures provided Promote income. There can be no assurance that the joint ventures will continue to operate profitably and thus provide additional Promote income in the future.

These factors could limit the return that we receive from such investments or cause our cash flows to be lower than our estimates. In addition, a partner or co-venturer may not have access to sufficient capital to satisfy its funding obligations to the joint venture.

Market factors could have an adverse effect on our share price.

One of the factors that may influence the trading price of our Common Shares is the annual dividend rate on our Common Shares as a percentage of its market price. An increase in market interest rates may lead purchasers of our Common Shares to seek a higher annual dividend rate, which could adversely affect the market price of our Common Shares. A decline in our share price, as a result of this or other market factors, could unfavorably impact our ability to raise additional equity in the public markets.

The loss of a key executive officer could have an adverse effect on us.

Our success depends on the contribution of key management members. The loss of the services of Kenneth F. Bernstein, President and Chief Executive Officer, or other key executive-level employees could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations. We have obtained key-man life insurance for Mr. Bernstein. In addition, we have entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Bernstein; however, it could be terminated by Mr. Bernstein. We have not entered into employment agreements with other key

15


executive level employees.

Our Board of Trustees may change our investment policy without shareholder approval.

Our Board of Trustees may determine to change our investment and financing policies, our growth strategy and our debt, capitalization, distribution, acquisition, disposition and operating policies. Our Board of Trustees may establish investment criteria or limitations as it deems appropriate, but currently does not limit the number of properties in which we may seek to invest or on the concentration of investments in any one geographic region. Although our Board of Trustees has no present intention to revise or amend our strategies and policies, it may do so at any time without a vote by our shareholders. Accordingly, the results of decisions made by our Board of Trustees and implemented by management may or may not serve the interests of all of our shareholders and could adversely affect our financial condition or results of operations, including our ability to distribute cash to shareholders or qualify as a REIT.

Distribution requirements imposed by law limit our operating flexibility.

To maintain our status as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, we are generally required to distribute to our shareholders at least 90% of our taxable income for each calendar year. Pursuant to IRS pronouncements, up to 90% of such distribution may be made in Common Shares rather than cash. Our taxable income is determined without regard to any deduction for dividends paid and by excluding net capital gains. To the extent that we satisfy the distribution requirement, but distribute less than 100% of our taxable income, we will be subject to federal corporate income tax on our undistributed income. In addition, we will incur a 4% nondeductible excise tax on the amount, if any, by which our distributions in any year are less than the sum of (i) 85% of our ordinary income for that year; (ii) 95% of our capital gain net income for that year and; (iii) 100% of our undistributed taxable income from prior years. We intend to continue to make distributions to our shareholders to comply with the distribution requirements of the Internal Revenue Code and to minimize exposure to federal income and nondeductible excise taxes. Differences in timing between the receipt of income and the payment of expenses in determining our income as well as required debt amortization payments and the capitalization of certain expenses could require us to borrow funds on a short-term basis to meet the distribution requirements that are necessary to achieve the tax benefits associated with qualifying as a REIT. The distribution requirements also severely limit our ability to retain earnings to acquire and improve properties or retire outstanding debt.

There can be no assurance we have qualified or will remain qualified as a REIT for federal income tax purposes.

We believe that we have consistently met the requirements for qualification as a REIT for federal income tax purposes beginning with our taxable year ended December 31, 1993, and we intend to continue to meet these requirements in the future. However, qualification as a REIT involves the application of highly technical and complex provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, for which there are only limited judicial or administrative interpretations. No assurance can be given that we have qualified or will remain qualified as a REIT. The Internal Revenue Code provisions and income tax regulations applicable to REITs differ significantly from those applicable to other corporations. The determination of various factual matters and circumstances not entirely within our control can potentially affect our ability to continue to qualify as a REIT. In addition, no assurance can be given that future legislation, regulations, administrative interpretations or court decisions will not significantly change the requirements for qualification as a REIT or adversely affect the federal income tax consequences of such qualification. Under current law, if we fail to qualify as a REIT, we would not be allowed a deduction for dividends paid to shareholders in computing our net taxable income. In addition, our income would be subject to tax at the regular corporate rates. We also could be disqualified from treatment as a REIT for the four taxable years following the year during which qualification was lost. Cash available for distribution to our shareholders would be significantly reduced for each year in which we do not qualify as a REIT. In that event, we would not be required to continue to make distributions. Although we currently intend to continue to qualify as a REIT, it is possible that future economic, market, legal, tax or other considerations may cause us, without the consent of our shareholders, to revoke the REIT election or to otherwise take action that would result in disqualification.

Limits on ownership of our capital shares.

For the Company to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, among other requirements, not more than 50% of the value of our capital shares may be owned, directly or indirectly, by five or fewer individuals (as defined in the Internal Revenue Code to include certain entities) during the last half of each taxable year after 1993, and such capital shares must be beneficially owned by 100 or more persons during at least 335 days of a taxable year of 12 months or during a proportionate part of a shorter taxable year (in each case, other than the first such year). Our Declaration of Trust includes certain restrictions regarding transfers of our capital shares and ownership limits that are intended to assist us in satisfying these limitations. These restrictions and limits may not be adequate in all cases, however, to prevent the transfer of our capital shares in violation of the ownership limitations. The ownership limit discussed above may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing someone from taking control of us.

Actual or constructive ownership of our capital shares in excess of the share ownership limits contained in our Declaration of Trust would cause the violative transfer or ownership to be null and void from the beginning and subject to purchase by us at a price equal to the lesser of (i) the price stipulated in the challenged transaction; and (ii) the fair market value of such shares (determined in accordance with the rules set forth in our Declaration of Trust). As a result, if a violative transfer were made, the recipient of the shares would not acquire any economic or voting rights attributable to the transferred shares. Additionally, the constructive ownership

16


rules for these limits are complex and groups of related individuals or entities may be deemed a single owner and consequently in violation of the share ownership limits.

Concentration of ownership by certain investors.

Six institutional shareholders own 5% or more individually, and 53.8% in the aggregate, of our Common Shares. A significant concentration of ownership may allow an investor or a group of investors to exert a greater influence over our management and affairs and may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of us.

Restrictions on a potential change of control.

Our Board of Trustees is authorized by our Declaration of Trust to establish and issue one or more series of preferred shares without shareholder approval. We have not established any series of preferred shares. However, the establishment and issuance of a series of preferred shares could make more difficult a change of control of us that could be in the best interest of the shareholders.

In addition, we have entered into an employment agreement with our Chief Executive Officer and severance agreements are in place with our executives which provide that, upon the occurrence of a change in control of us and either the termination of their employment without cause (as defined) or their resignation for good reason (as defined), those executive officers would be entitled to certain termination or severance payments made by us (which may include a lump sum payment equal to defined percentages of annual salary and prior years’ average bonuses, paid in accordance with the terms and conditions of the respective agreement), which could deter a change of control of us that could be in our best interest.

Legislative or regulatory tax changes could have an adverse effect on us.

There are a number of issues associated with an investment in a REIT that are related to the federal income tax laws, including, but not limited to, the consequences of a company’s failing to continue to qualify as a REIT. At any time, the federal income tax laws governing REITs or the administrative interpretations of those laws may be amended or modified. Any new laws or interpretations may take effect retroactively and could adversely affect us or our shareholders. Reduced tax rates applicable to certain corporate dividends paid to most domestic noncorporate shareholders are not generally available to REIT shareholders since a REITs income generally is not subject to corporate level tax. As a result, investment in non-REIT corporations may be viewed as relatively more attractive than investment in REITs by domestic noncorporate investors. This could adversely affect the market price of the Company’s shares.

Our development and construction activities could affect our operating results.

We intend to continue the selective development and construction of retail properties. As opportunities arise, we expect to delay construction until sufficient pre-leasing is reached and financing is in place. Our development and construction activities include risks that:

 

 

 

 

We may abandon development opportunities after expending resources to determine feasibility;

 

Construction costs of a project may exceed our original estimates;

 

Occupancy rates and rents at a newly completed property may not be sufficient to make the property profitable;

 

Financing for development of a property may not be available to us on favorable terms;

 

We may not complete construction and lease-up on schedule, resulting in increased debt service expense and construction costs; and

 

We may not be able to obtain, or may experience delays in obtaining necessary zoning, land use, building, occupancy and other required governmental permits and authorizations.

Additionally, the time frame required for development, construction and lease-up of these properties means that we may not realize a significant cash return for several years. If any of the above events occur, the development of properties may hinder our growth and have an adverse effect on our results of operations and cash flows. In addition, new development activities, regardless of whether or not they are ultimately successful, typically require substantial time and attention from management.

Redevelopments and acquisitions may fail to perform as expected.

Our investment strategy includes the redevelopment and acquisition of shopping centers in supply contained markets in densely populated areas with high average household incomes and significant barriers to entry. The redevelopment and acquisition of properties entails risks that include the following, any of which could adversely affect our results of operations and our ability to meet our obligations:

 

 

 

 

the property may fail to achieve the returns we have projected, either temporarily or for extended periods;

 

we may not be able to identify suitable properties to acquire or may be unable to complete the acquisition of the properties we identify;

 

we may not be able to integrate an acquisition into our existing operations successfully;

17



 

 

 

 

properties we redevelop or acquire may fail to achieve the occupancy or rental rates we project, within the time frames we project, at the time we make the decision to invest, which may result in the properties’ failure to achieve the returns we projected;

 

our pre-acquisition evaluation of the physical condition of each new investment may not detect certain defects or identify necessary repairs until after the property is acquired, which could significantly increase our total acquisition costs or decrease cash flow from the property; and

 

our investigation of a property or building prior to our acquisition, and any representations we may receive from the seller of such building or property, may fail to reveal various liabilities, which could reduce the cash flow from the property or increase our acquisition cost.

Climate change and catastrophic risk from natural perils.

Some of our current properties could be subject to potential natural or other disasters. We may acquire properties that are located in areas which are subject to natural disasters. Any properties located in coastal regions would therefore be affected by any future increases in sea levels or in the frequency or severity of hurricanes and tropical storms, whether such increases are caused by global climate changes or other factors.

Climate change is a long-term change in the statistical distribution of weather patterns over periods of time that range from decades to millions of years. It may be a change in the average weather conditions or a change in the distribution of weather events with respect to an average, for example, greater or fewer extreme weather events. Climate change may be limited to a specific region, or may occur across the whole Earth.

There may be significant physical effects of climate change that have the potential to have a material effect on our business and operations. These effects can impact our personnel, physical assets, tenants and overall operations.

Physical impacts of climate change may include:

 

 

 

 

Increased storm intensity and severity of weather (e.g., floods or hurricanes);

 

Sea level rise; and

 

Extreme temperatures.

 

 

 

As a result of these physical impacts from climate-related events, we may be vulnerable to the following:

 

 

 

Risks of property damage to our shopping centers;

 

Indirect financial and operational impacts from disruptions to the operations of major tenants located in our shopping centers from severe weather, such as hurricanes or floods;

 

Increased insurance premiums and deductibles, or a decrease in the availability of coverage, for properties in areas subject to severe weather;

 

Increased insurance claims and liabilities;

 

Increase in energy cost impacting operational returns;

 

Changes in the availability or quality of water, or other natural resources on which the tenant’s business depends;

 

Decreased consumer demand for consumer products or services resulting from physical changes associated with climate change (e.g., warmer temperatures or decreasing shoreline could reduce demand for residential and commercial properties previously viewed as desirable);

 

Incorrect long term valuation of an equity investment due to changing conditions not previously anticipated at the time of the investment; and

 

Economic disruptions arising from the above.

Possible liability relating to environmental matters.

Under various federal, state and local environmental laws, statutes, ordinances, rules and regulations, as an owner of real property, we may be liable for the costs of removal or remediation of certain hazardous or toxic substances at, on, in or under our property, as well as certain other potential costs relating to hazardous or toxic substances (including government fines and penalties and damages for injuries to persons and adjacent property). These laws may impose liability without regard to whether we knew of, or were responsible for, the presence or disposal of those substances. This liability may be imposed on us in connection with the activities of an operator of, or tenant at, the property. The cost of any required remediation, removal, fines or personal or property damages and our liability therefore could exceed the value of the property and/or our aggregate assets. In addition, the presence of those substances, or the failure to properly dispose of or remove those substances, may adversely affect our ability to sell or rent that property or to borrow using that property as collateral, which, in turn, could reduce our revenues and affect our ability to make distributions.

A property can also be adversely affected either through physical contamination or by virtue of an adverse effect upon value attributable to the migration of hazardous or toxic substances, or other contaminants that have or may have emanated from other properties. Although our tenants are primarily responsible for any environmental damages and claims related to the leased premises, in the event of the bankruptcy or inability of any of our tenants to satisfy any obligations with respect to the property leased to that tenant, we may be required to satisfy such obligations. In addition, we may be held directly liable for any such damages or claims

18


irrespective of the provisions of any lease.

From time to time, in connection with the conduct of our business, and prior to the acquisition of any property from a third party or as required by our financing sources, we authorize the preparation of Phase I environmental reports and, when necessary, Phase II environmental reports, with respect to our properties. Based upon these environmental reports and our ongoing review of our properties, we are currently not aware of any environmental condition with respect to any of our properties that we believe would be reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on us. There can be no assurance, however, that the environmental reports will reveal all environmental conditions at our properties or that the following will not expose us to material liability in the future:

 

 

The discovery of previously unknown environmental conditions;

Changes in law;

Activities of tenants; and

Activities relating to properties in the vicinity of our properties.

Changes in laws increasing the potential liability for environmental conditions existing on properties or increasing the restrictions on discharges or other conditions may result in significant unanticipated expenditures or may otherwise adversely affect the operations of our tenants, which could adversely affect our financial condition or results of operations.

Uninsured losses or a loss in excess of insured limits could adversely affect our financial condition.

We carry comprehensive general liability, fire, extended coverage, loss of rent insurance, and environmental liability on most of our properties, with policy specifications and insured limits customarily carried for similar properties. However, with respect to those properties where the leases do not provide for abatement of rent under any circumstances, we generally do not maintain loss of rent insurance. In addition, there are certain types of losses, such as losses resulting from wars, terrorism or acts of God that generally are not insured because they are either uninsurable or not economically insurable. Should an uninsured loss or a loss in excess of insured limits occur, we could lose capital invested in a property, as well as the anticipated future revenues from a property, while remaining obligated for any mortgage indebtedness or other financial obligations related to the property. Any loss of these types would adversely affect our financial condition.

Future terrorist attacks or civil unrest could harm the demand for, and the value of, our properties.

Future terrorist attacks or civil unrest, such as the attacks that occurred in New York, Pennsylvania and Washington, D.C. on September 11, 2001, and other acts of terrorism or war, could harm the demand for, and the value of, our properties. Terrorist attacks could directly impact the value of our properties through damage, destruction, loss or increased security costs, and the availability of insurance for such acts may be limited or may be subject to substantial cost increases. To the extent that our tenants are impacted by future attacks, their ability to continue to honor obligations under their existing leases could be adversely affected. A decrease in retail demand could make it difficult for us to renew or re-lease our properties at lease rates equal to or above historical rates. These acts might erode business and consumer confidence and spending, and might result in increased volatility in national and international financial markets and economies. Any one of these events might decrease demand for real estate, decrease or delay the occupancy of our properties, and limit our access to capital or increase our cost of raising capital.

Outages, computer viruses and similar events could disrupt our operations.

We rely on information technology networks and systems, some of which are owned and operated by third parties, to process, transmit and store electronic information. Any of these systems may be susceptible to outages due to fire, floods, power loss, telecommunications failures, terrorist attacks and similar events. Despite the implementation of network security measures, our systems and those of third parties on which we rely may also be vulnerable to computer viruses and similar disruptions. If we and the third parties on whom we rely are unable to prevent such outages and breaches, our operations could be disrupted.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES.

SHOPPING CENTER PROPERTIES

The discussion and tables in this Item 2 include properties held through our Core Portfolio and our Opportunity Funds. We define our Core Portfolio as those properties either 100% owned by, or partially owned through joint venture interests by, the Operating Partnership, or subsidiaries thereof, not including those properties owned through our Opportunity Funds. The discussion of the Opportunity Funds does not include our investment in a portfolio of self-storage properties, which are detailed separately within this Item 2.

As of December 31, 2010, excluding two properties under redevelopment, there are 32 operating properties in our Core Portfolio totaling approximately 4.8 million square feet of gross leasable area (“GLA”). The Core Portfolio properties are located in 12 states and are generally well-established community and neighborhood shopping centers anchored by supermarkets or value-oriented retail. The properties are diverse in size, ranging from approximately 10,000 to 875,000 square feet and as of December 31, 2010, were, in total, 92% occupied.

As of December 31, 2010, we owned and operated 27 properties totaling 2.5 million square feet of GLA in our Opportunity Funds, excluding five properties under redevelopment. In addition to shopping centers, the Opportunity Funds have invested in mixed-use properties, which generally include retail activities and self-storage properties. The Opportunity Fund properties are located in 13 states and as of December 31, 2010, were, in total, 87% occupied.

Within our Core Portfolio and Opportunity Funds, we had approximately 550 leases as of December 31, 2010. A majority of our rental revenues were from national tenants. A majority of the income from the properties consists of rent received under long-term leases. These leases generally provide for the payment of fixed minimum rent monthly in advance and for the payment by tenants of a pro-rata share of the real estate taxes, insurance, utilities and common area maintenance of the shopping centers. Minimum rents and expense reimbursements accounted for approximately 85% of our total revenues for the year ended December 31, 2010.

Certain of our leases also provided for the payment of percentage rents either in addition to, or in place of, minimum rents. These arrangements generally provide for payment to us of a certain percentage of a tenant’s gross sales in excess of a stipulated annual amount. Percentage rents accounted for less than 1% of the total 2010 revenues of the Company.

Four of our Core Portfolio properties and 21 of our Opportunity Fund properties are subject to long-term ground leases in which a third party owns and has leased the underlying land to us. We pay rent for the use of the land and are responsible for all costs and expenses associated with the building and improvements at all 25 locations.

No individual property contributed in excess of 10% of our total revenues for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 or 2008. Reference is made to Note 8 to our Consolidated Financial Statements, which begin on page F-1 of this Form 10-K, for information on the mortgage debt pertaining to our properties. The following sets forth more specific information with respect to each of our shopping centers at December 31, 2010:

SELF-STORAGE PORTFOLIO

During February 2008, we, through Fund III, acquired a 95% controlling interest in a portfolio of eleven self-storage properties from Storage Post’s existing institutional investors for approximately $174.0 million. In addition, we, through Fund II, developed three self-storage properties. The fourteen self-storage property portfolio, located throughout New York and New Jersey, totals 1,127,490 net rentable square feet, and is operating at various stages of stabilization as detailed in the table below. The portfolio is operated by Self Storage Management, a joint venture entity formed by Fund III and an unaffiliated partner.

KROGER/SAFEWAY PORTFOLIO

At December 31, 2010, Fund I, together with an unaffiliated joint venture partner (“Kroger/Safeway JV”), owns interests, through two master leases with an unaffiliated entity (“Master Lessee”), in 18 triple-net Kroger and Safeway supermarket leases (“Operating Leases”) aggregating approximately 0.7 million square feet. There are six Kroger and twelve Safeway locations in eleven states averaging approximately 39,000 square feet at rents ranging from approximately $3.70 to $7.00 per square foot. The master leases expire in January 2011 with the Master Lessee having the option of extending the term of either or both of the master leases. The Master Lessee exercised the option to cancel the master lease in the first quarter of 2011. As a result, the Kroger/Safeway JV became the operating landlord of the locations. The Kroger/Safeway JV holds its interest through long-term ground leases, which have a term in excess of 80 years, inclusive of multiple renewal options. Although there is no obligation for the Kroger/Safeway JV to pay ground rent during the initial term of the master lease, to the extent it exercises an option to renew a ground lease for a property thereafter, it will be obligated to pay an average ground rent of approximately $2.00 per square foot.

The Kroger Co. purchased six locations comprising 277,700 square feet, or 28% of the portfolio, during February of 2009 for $14.6 million, resulting in a gain of approximately $5.6 million.

The initial Operating Leases expired during 2009. Options on these leases provide for extensions through 2049 at an average rent of approximately $5.00 per square foot upon the commencement of the initial option period during 2009. Of the remaining 18 locations, 15 are currently occupied and paying rent, one is unoccupied and paying rent, and two remain vacant.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

We are involved in other various matters of litigation arising in the normal course of business. While we are unable to predict with any certainty the amounts involved, management is of the opinion that, when such litigation is resolved, our resulting exposure to loss contingencies, if any, will not have a significant effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or liquidity.

During September 2008, we, and certain of our subsidiaries, and other unrelated entities were named as defendants in an adversary proceeding brought by Mervyn’s LLC (“Mervyns”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware. This lawsuit involves five claims alleging fraudulent transfers. The first claim is that, at the time of the sale of Mervyns by Target Corporation to a consortium of investors including Acadia, a transfer of assets was made in an effort to defraud creditors. We believe this aspect of the case is without merit. There are four other claims relating to transfers of assets of Mervyns at various times. We believe there are substantial defenses to these claims. The matter is in the early stages of discovery and we believe the lawsuit will not have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, consolidated financial condition, or liquidity.

During August 2009, we terminated the employment of a former Senior Vice President (the “Former Employee”) for engaging in conduct that fell within the definition of “cause” in his severance agreement with us. Had the Former Employee not been terminated for “cause,” he would have been eligible to receive approximately $0.9 million under the severance agreement. Because we terminated him for “cause,” we did not pay the Former Employee any severance benefits under the agreement. The Former Employee has brought a lawsuit against us in New York State Supreme Court, alleging breach of the severance agreement. The suit is in the pre-trial discovery stage. We believe we have meritorious defenses to the suit.

ITEM 4. REMOVED AND RESERVED.

At February 28, 2011, there were 309 holders of record of our Common Shares.

We have determined for income tax purposes that 100% of the total dividends distributed to shareholders during 2010 represented ordinary income. The dividend for the quarter ended December 31, 2010 was paid on February 1, 2011 and will be taxable in 2011. Our cash flow is affected by a number of factors, including the revenues received from rental properties, our operating expenses, the interest expense on our borrowings, the ability of lessees to meet their obligations to us and unanticipated capital expenditures. Future dividends paid by us will be at the discretion of the Trustees and will depend on our actual cash flows, our financial condition, capital requirements, the annual distribution requirements under the REIT provisions of the Code and such other factors as the Trustees deem relevant. In addition, we have the ability to pay dividends in cash, Common Shares or in any combination of cash (minimum 10%) and Common Shares (maximum 90%).

(b) Issuer purchases of equity securities

We have an existing share repurchase program that authorizes management, at its discretion, to repurchase up to $20.0 million of our outstanding Common Shares. The program may be discontinued or extended at any time and there is no assurance that we will purchase the full amount authorized. There were no Common Shares repurchased by us during the year ended December 31, 2010.

(c) Securities authorized for issuance under equity compensation plans

The 1999 Plan authorizes the issuance of options equal to up to 8% of the total Common Shares outstanding from time to time on a fully diluted basis. However, not more than 4,000,000 of the Common Shares in the aggregate may be issued pursuant to the exercise of options and no participant may receive more than 5,000,000 Common Shares during the term of the 1999 Plan. The 2003 Plan authorizes the issuance of options equal to up to 4% of the total Common Shares outstanding from time to time on a fully diluted basis. However, no participant may receive more than 1,000,000 Common Shares during the term of the 2003 Plan. The 2006 Plan authorizes the issuance of a maximum number of 500,000 Common Shares. No participant may receive more than 500,000 Common Shares during the term of the 2006 Plan. We have also issued LTIP Units, which are generally exchangeable on a one-for-one basis for our Operating Partnership Units which in turn are convertible into Common Shares.

(d) Share Price Performance Graph (1)

The following graph compares the cumulative total shareholder return for our Common Shares for the period commencing December 31, 2005 through December 31, 2010 with the cumulative total return on the Russell 2000 Index (“Russell 2000”), the NAREIT All Equity REIT Index (the “NAREIT”) and the SNL Shopping Center REITs (the “SNL”) over the same period. Total return values for the Russell 2000, the NAREIT, the SNL and the Common Shares were calculated based upon cumulative total return assuming the investment of $100.00 in each of the Russell 2000, the NAREIT, the SNL and our Common Shares on December 31, 2005, and assuming reinvestment of dividends. The shareholder return as set forth in the table below is not necessarily indicative of future performance.

Notes:

(1)

The extraordinary item relates to 2007 and represents our share of an extraordinary gain from our investment in Albertson’s. We consider this to be a private-equity style investment in an operating businesses as opposed to real estate. Accordingly, all gains and losses from this investment is included in FFO, which we believe provides a more accurate reflection of our operating performance.

33



 

 

(2)

We consider funds from operations (“FFO”) as defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) to be an appropriate supplemental disclosure of operating performance for an equity REIT due to its widespread acceptance and use within the REIT and analyst communities. FFO is presented to assist investors in analyzing our performance. It is helpful as it excludes various items included in net income that are not indicative of the operating performance, such as gains (losses) from sales of depreciated property and depreciation and amortization. However, our method of calculating FFO may be different from methods used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs. FFO does not represent cash generated from operations as defined by generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and is not indicative of cash available to fund all cash needs, including distributions. It should not be considered as an alternative to net income for the purpose of evaluating our performance or to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. Consistent with the NAREIT definition, we define FFO as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (losses) from sales of depreciated property, plus depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.

(3)

In addition to the $0.8951 cash dividends declared in 2008, we declared a Common Share dividend of $0.4949.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

OVERVIEW

As of December 31, 2010, we operated 79 properties, which we own or have an ownership interest in, within our Core Portfolio or within our three Opportunity Funds. Our Core Portfolio consists of those properties either 100% owned by, or partially owned through joint venture interests by the Operating Partnership, or subsidiaries thereof, not including those properties owned through our Opportunity Funds. These 79 properties consist of commercial properties, primarily neighborhood and community shopping centers, self-storage and mixed-use properties with a retail component. The properties we operate are located primarily in the Northeast, Mid-Atlantic and Midwestern regions of the United States. Excluding two properties under redevelopment, there are 32 properties in our Core Portfolio totaling approximately 4.8 million square feet. Fund I has 20 properties comprising approximately 0.9 million square feet. Fund II has 10 properties, eight of which (representing 1.2 million square feet) are currently operating, one is under construction, and one is in the design phase. Three of the properties also include self-storage facilities. We expect the Fund II portfolio will have approximately 2.0 million square feet upon completion of all current construction and anticipated redevelopment activities. Fund III has 15 properties totaling approximately 1.8 million square feet, of which 11 locations representing 0.9 million net rentable square feet are self-storage facilities and one is in the design phase. The majority of our operating income is derived from rental revenues from these 79 properties, including recoveries from tenants, offset by operating and overhead expenses. As our RCP Venture invests in operating companies, we consider these investments to be private-equity style, as opposed to real estate, investments. Since these are not traditional investments in operating rental real estate but investments in operating businesses, the Operating Partnership invests in these through a taxable REIT subsidiary (“TRS”).

Our primary business objective is to acquire and manage commercial retail properties that will provide cash for distributions to shareholders while also creating the potential for capital appreciation to enhance investor returns. We focus on the following fundamentals to achieve this objective:

– Own and operate a Core Portfolio of community and neighborhood shopping centers and main street retail located in markets with strong demographics and generate internal growth within the Core Portfolio through aggressive redevelopment, re-anchoring and/or leasing activities
– Maintain a strong and flexible balance sheet through conservative financial practices while ensuring access to sufficient capital to fund future growth
– Generate external growth through an opportunistic yet disciplined acquisition program. We target transactions with high inherent opportunity for the creation of additional value through redevelopment and leasing and/or transactions requiring creative capital structuring to facilitate the transactions. These transactions may include other types of commercial real estate besides those which we currently invest in through our Core Portfolio. These may also include joint ventures with private equity investors for the purpose of making investments in operating retailers with significant embedded value in their real estate assets

BUSINESS OUTLOOK

The U.S. economy is currently in a post recessionary period, which has resulted in a significant decline in retail sales due to reduced consumer spending. Although the occupancy and net operating income within our portfolio has not been materially adversely affected through December 31, 2010, should retailers continue to experience deteriorating sales performance, the likelihood of additional tenant bankruptcy filings may increase, which would negatively impact our results of operations. In addition to the impact on retailers, this period has had an unprecedented impact on the U.S. credit markets. Traditional sources of financing, such as the commercial-mortgage backed security market, have become severely curtailed. If these conditions continue, our ability to finance new acquisitions or refinance existing debts as they mature will be adversely affected. Accordingly, our ability to generate external growth in income, as well as maintain existing operating income, could be limited.

See the “Item 1A. Risk Factors,” including the discussions under the headings “The current economic environment, while improving, may cause us to lose tenants and may impair our ability to borrow money to purchase properties, refinance existing debt or finance our current redevelopment projects” and “The bankruptcy of, or a downturn in the business of, any of our major tenants or a significant number of our smaller tenants may adversely affect our cash flows and property values.”

Note:

 

 

(1)

Fees earned by us as general partner/managing member of the Opportunity Funds are eliminated in consolidation and adjust the loss (income) attributable to noncontrolling interests and are not reflected above. The balance reflected in the table represents third party fees that are not eliminated in consolidation.

The decrease in rental income in the Core Portfolio was primarily attributable to tenant vacancies at Chestnut Hill and Third Avenue. The increase in rental income in the Opportunity Funds primarily related to additional rents following the acquisition of Cortlandt Towne Center (“2009 Fund Acquisition”) of $1.0 million and additional rents at Fordham Place, Pelham Manor and Canarsie for leases that commenced in 2009 and 2010 (“Fund Redevelopment Properties”). The increase in rental income in the Storage Portfolio related to the full amortization of acquired lease intangible costs during 2009, increased occupancy in the Storage Portfolio as well as our discontinued practice of reporting the Storage Portfolio one month in arrears which was based on the historical unavailability of timely financial information. Based on improvements in the Storage Portfolio accounting systems, we report this activity on a current basis. Accordingly, the year ended December 31, 2010 reflects thirteen months of storage activity while the year ended December 31, 2009 reflects twelve months of storage activity (“Storage Portfolio Activity”).

Expense reimbursements in the Opportunity Funds increased for both real estate taxes and common area maintenance primarily as a result of the 2009 Fund Acquisition and Fund Redevelopment Properties.

Lease termination income in the Core Portfolio for 2009 related to termination fee income received from a former tenant at Absecon Marketplace.

Other in the Core Portfolio in 2009 included $1.7 million resulting from a forfeited sales contract deposit.

Other in the Opportunity Funds during 2009 included $0.9 million received by Fund II in settlement of litigation in connection with a property acquisition.

The decrease in property operating expenses in the Core Portfolio was primarily attributable to a decrease in bad debt expense in 2010. The increase in property operating expenses in the Opportunity Funds was primarily attributable to the 2009 Fund Acquisition and Fund Redevelopment Properties. The increase in property operating expenses in the Storage Portfolio primarily related to higher

35


operating costs in 2010 following increased occupancy as well as the Storage Portfolio Activity.

The increase in real estate taxes in the Opportunity Funds was primarily attributable to the 2009 Fund Acquisition as well as Fund Redevelopment Properties.

The decrease in general and administrative expense in the Core Portfolio was primarily attributable to reduced compensation expense following staff reductions in 2009.

Depreciation and amortization expense in the Core Portfolio decreased as a result of the write-off of lease intangible costs in connection with a terminated lease in 2009. Depreciation expense in the Opportunity Funds increased $0.3 million as result of the 2009 Acquisition. Amortization expense in the Opportunity Funds increased $2.6 million primarily due to the write-off of deferred financing costs related to refinanced debt in 2010. Depreciation and amortization expense in the Storage Portfolio increased $0.7 million primarily as a result of two self storage properties placed in service during the second quarter 2009.

The $2.5 million abandonment of project costs in the Opportunity Funds in 2009 was attributable to our determination that we most likely would not participate in a specific future development project.

The reserve for notes receivable of $1.7 million in 2009 related to the loss of an anchor tenant at the underlying collateral property.

Equity in earnings (losses) of unconsolidated affiliates in the Opportunity Funds increased primarily as a result of an increase in distributions in excess of basis from our Albertson’s investment of $9.5 million in 2010 and an increase in our pro-rata share of income from Mervyns in 2010. Equity in earnings (losses) in the Self Storage Portfolio represents the pro-rata share of losses from our unconsolidated investment in the newly-formed self storage management company.

The $3.8 million impairment of investment in unconsolidated affiliate during 2009 was the result of the reduction in value of the underlying property due to the recession and the related reduction in Fund I’s carrying value of this investment including a partial guarantee of the mortgage debt.

The $33.8 million gain from bargain purchase was attributable to Fund II’s purchase of an unaffiliated membership interest in CityPoint in 2010. Reference is made to Note 2 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements which begin on page F-1 of this Form 10-K for a discussion of this transaction.

The gain on debt extinguishment of $7.1 million was attributable to the purchase of our convertible debt at a discount in 2009.

Total interest expense in the Core Portfolio decreased $1.6 million in 2010. This was the result of a $2.5 million decrease attributable to lower average outstanding borrowings in 2010 offset by a $0.9 million increase attributable to higher average interest rates in 2010. Interest expense in the Opportunity Funds increased $5.0 million in 2010. This was the result of an increase of $2.9 million due to higher average interest rates in 2010, an increase of $1.8 million due to higher average outstanding borrowings in 2010 and $0.3 million of lower capitalized interest in 2010. Interest expense in the Storage Portfolio decreased $0.9 million in 2010. This was

36


primarily attributable to a $1.4 million decrease due to lower average interest rates in 2010. This decrease was offset by $0.3 million of lower capitalized interest in 2010 and an increase of $0.2 million due to higher average outstanding borrowings in 2010.

The variance in the income tax expense in the Core Portfolio primarily related to income taxes at the TRS level for our pro-rata share of income from our Albertson’s investment in 2010.

Income from discontinued operations represents activity related to property held for sale in 2010 and property sales in 2009.

(Income) loss attributable to noncontrolling interests in subsidiaries – Continuing operations and Discontinued operations primarily represents the noncontrolling interests’ share of all the Opportunity Funds variances discussed above.

Fees earned by us as general partner/managing member of the Opportunity Funds are eliminated in consolidation and adjust the loss (income) attributable to noncontrolling interests and are not reflected above. The balance reflected in the table represents third party fees that are not eliminated in consolidation.

The increase in rental income in the Opportunity Funds primarily related to additional rents from the 2009 Fund Acquisition of $7.5 million and certain Fund Redevelopment Properties. The increase in rental income in the Storage Portfolio related to the February 2008 acquisition of the Storage Post Portfolio (“Storage Acquisition”) versus a full year of activity for 2009. In addition, the increase in minimum rents in the Storage Portfolio was also attributable to the full amortization of acquired lease intangible costs during 2009.

The increase in mortgage interest income was the result of higher interest earning assets in 2009, primarily from new notes/mezzanine financing investments originated during the second half of 2008.

Expense reimbursements in the Opportunity Funds increased for both real estate taxes and common area maintenance as a result of the 2009 Fund Acquisition as well as certain Fund Redevelopment Properties.

Lease termination income in the Core Portfolio for 2009 related to a termination fee earned from a tenant at Absecon Marketplace. Lease termination income in the Opportunity Funds for 2008 related to a termination fee earned, net of costs, from a tenant at Canarsie Plaza.

Management fee income decreased primarily as a result of lower fees earned of $0.9 million from the CityPoint development project and lower fees from our Klaff management contracts.

Other in the Core Portfolio in 2009 included $1.7 million resulting from a forfeited sales contract deposit.

Other in the Opportunity Funds during 2009 included $0.9 million received by Fund II in settlement of litigation in connection with a property acquisition.

The increase in property operating expenses in the Opportunity Funds was primarily the result of the 2009 Fund Acquisition and certain Fund Redevelopment Properties. The increase in property operating expenses in the Storage Portfolio related to the Storage Acquisition.

The increase in real estate taxes in the Opportunity Funds was primarily attributable to the 2009 Fund Acquisition.

The decrease in general and administrative expense in the Core Portfolio was primarily attributable to reduced compensation expense following staff reductions in the second half of 2008 and in the first half of 2009. The decrease in general and administrative expense in the Opportunity Funds related to the reduction in Promote expense attributable to Fund I and Mervyns I. The increase in general and administrative expense in Other primarily related to the reduction in Fund I and Mervyns I Promote expense eliminated for consolidated financial statement presentation purposes.

Depreciation expense in the Core Portfolio decreased $2.4 million in 2009. This was principally a result of increased depreciation expense in 2008 resulting from the write-down of tenant improvements at two properties attributable to the bankruptcy of Circuit City. Amortization expense in the Core Portfolio decreased $0.7 million primarily as a result of lower amortization expense in 2009 associated with the Klaff management contracts. Depreciation expense increased $5.0 million and amortization expense increased $2.0 million in the Opportunity Funds primarily due to the 2009 Fund Acquisition and certain Fund Redevelopment Properties. Depreciation expense and amortization expense increased $1.4 million in the Storage Portfolio primarily as a result of the Storage Acquisition. Depreciation and amortization expense decreased $1.5 million in Other as a result of depreciation associated with the elimination of capitalizable costs within the consolidated group.

The $2.5 million abandonment of project costs in 2009 was attributable to our determination that we most likely would not participate in a specific future development project.

The reserve for notes receivable of $1.7 million in 2009 related to the loss of an anchor tenant at the underlying collateral property. The 2008 reserve for notes receivable of $4.4 million related to a mezzanine loan.

Equity in earnings (losses) of unconsolidated affiliates in the Opportunity Funds decreased primarily as a result of our pro-rata share of gains from the sale of Mervyns locations in 2008 of $10.4 million, a decrease in distributions in excess of basis from our Albertson’s investment of $7.9 million in 2009 and our pro-rata share of gain from the sale of the Haygood Shopping Center of $3.4 million in 2008.

The $3.8 million impairment of investment in unconsolidated affiliate during 2009 was the result of the reduction in value of the underlying property due to the recession and the related reduction in Fund I’s carrying value of this investment including a partial guarantee of the mortgage debt.

38


Other interest income decreased in 2009 as a result of lower cash balances during the year and lower average interest rates on cash and cash equivalents.

The gain on debt extinguishment of $7.1 million in 2009 and $1.5 million in 2008 was attributable to the purchase of our convertible debt at a discount.

Interest expense in the Core Portfolio decreased $1.1 million in 2009. This was primarily the result of lower interest expense related to the purchase of the Company’s convertible notes payable offset by a $0.7 million write-off of the unamortized premium related to the repayment of a mortgage note payable during 2008. Interest expense in the Opportunity Funds increased $2.7 million in 2009. This was primarily attributable to an increase of $4.2 million due to higher average outstanding borrowings in 2009 and $0.6 million of lower capitalized interest in 2009. These increases were offset by a $2.2 million decrease related to lower average interest rates in 2009. Interest expense in the Storage Portfolio increased $1.6 million in 2009. This was primarily due to an increase of $0.9 million due to higher average outstanding borrowings in 2009 as well as an increase of $0.8 million due to higher average interest rates in 2009.

The gain on sale of land of $0.8 million in the Core Portfolio related to the sale of a land parcel at Bloomfield Town Square in 2008.

The variance in the income tax expense in the Core Portfolio primarily related to income taxes at the TRS level for our share of income/gains from our Mervyns and Albertson’s investments in 2008.

Income from discontinued operations represents activity related to properties sold in 2009 and 2008.

(Income) loss attributable to noncontrolling interests in subsidiaries – Continuing operations and Discontinued operations primarily represents the noncontrolling interests’ share of all the Opportunity Funds variances discussed above.

We consider funds from operations (“FFO”) as defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) to be an appropriate supplemental disclosure of operating performance for an equity REIT due to its widespread acceptance and use within the REIT and analyst communities. FFO is presented to assist investors in analyzing our performance. It is helpful as it excludes various items included in net income that are not indicative of the operating performance, such as gains (losses) from sales of depreciated property and depreciation and amortization. However, our method of calculating FFO may be different from methods used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs. FFO does not represent cash generated from operations as defined by generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and is not indicative of cash available to fund all cash needs, including distributions. It should not be considered as an alternative to net income for the purpose of evaluating our performance or to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. Consistent with the NAREIT definition, we define FFO as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (losses) from sales of depreciated property, plus depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.

 

 

(3)

This item represents our share of an extraordinary gain from our investment in Albertson’s, which recorded an extraordinary gain in connection with the allocation of purchase price to assets acquired. We consider this to be a private-equity style investment in an operating businesses as opposed to real estate. Accordingly, all gains and losses from this investment are included in FFO, which we believe provides a more accurate reflection of our operating performance.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Uses of Liquidity

Our principal uses of liquidity are (i) distributions to our shareholders and OP unit holders, (ii) investments which include the funding of our capital committed to the Opportunity Funds and property acquisitions and redevelopment/re-tenanting activities within our Core Portfolio, and (iii) debt service and loan repayments, including the repurchase of our Convertible Notes.

Distributions

In order to qualify as a REIT for Federal income tax purposes, we must currently distribute at least 90% of our taxable income to our shareholders. For the year ended December 31, 2010, we paid dividends and distributions on our Common Shares and Common OP Units totaling $29.7 million. In addition, in December of 2008, our Board of Trustees approved a special dividend of approximately $0.55 per share, or $18.0 million in the aggregate, which was associated with taxable gains arising from property dispositions in 2008, which was paid on January 30, 2009, to shareholders of record on December 31, 2008. Ninety percent of the special dividend was paid with the issuance of 1.3 million Common Shares and 10%, or $1.8 million, was paid in cash.

New York Urban/Infill Redevelopment Initiative

40


In September 2004, we, through Fund II, launched our New York Urban/Infill Redevelopment Initiative. During 2004, Fund II, together with an unaffiliated partner, P/A Associates, LLC (“P/A”), formed Acadia P/A Holding Company, LLC (“Acadia-P/A”) for the purpose of acquiring, constructing, developing, owning, operating, leasing and managing certain mixed-use real estate properties in the New York City metropolitan area which include a retail component. To date P/A has invested $2.2 million and Fund II, the managing member, has agreed to invest the balance.

To date, Fund II has invested in nine New York Urban/Infill Redevelopment Initiative construction projects, eight of which were made through Acadia-P/A, as follows:

Other Fund III Investments

During February 2008, Acadia, through Fund III, and in conjunction with an unaffiliated partner, Storage Post, acquired a portfolio of eleven self-storage properties from Storage Post’s institutional investors for approximately $174.0 million. The properties are located throughout New York and New Jersey.

During January 2009, Fund III purchased Cortlandt Towne Center for $78.0 million. The property is a 642,000 square foot shopping center located in Westchester County, NY, a trade area with high barriers to entry for regional and national retailers.

During December 2010, Fund III, in a joint venture with an unaffiliated partner, acquired the 255,200 square foot White City Shopping Center in Shrewsbury, Massachusetts for $56.0 million.

During February 2011, Fund III, in a joint venture with an unaffiliated partner, acquired a three property portfolio (the “Portfolio”) for an aggregate purchase price of $51.9 million with $20.6 million of in-place mortgage financing assumed at closing. The Portfolio consists of three street-retail properties, aggregating 61,000 square feet, and is located in South Miami Beach, Florida.

During February 2011, Fund III, in a joint venture with an unaffiliated partner, acquired a 64,600 square foot single tenant retail property located in Silver Springs, Maryland, for approximately $9.8 million.

Notes Receivable

At December 31, 2010, our notes receivable, net aggregated $89.2 million, with accrued interest thereon of $7.6 million, and were collateralized by the underlying properties, the borrower’s ownership interest in the entities that own the properties and/or by the borrower’s personal guarantee. Effective interest rates on our notes receivable ranged from 10.0% to 24.0% with maturities through January 2017.

During December 2009, we made a loan for $8.6 million which bears interest at 14.5% and matures on June 30, 2011.

Other Investments

Acquisitions made during 2010, 2009 and 2008 are discussed in “PROPERTY ACQUISITIONS” in Item 1 of this Form 10-K:

Core Portfolio Property Redevelopment and Expansion

Our Core Portfolio redevelopment program focuses on selecting well-located neighborhood and community shopping centers and creating significant value through re-tenanting and property redevelopment. We currently have two properties in the early stages of redevelopment, Ledgewood Mall and Third Avenue.

Purchase of Convertible Notes

Purchases of the Notes has been another use of our liquidity. During 2009, we purchased an additional $57.0 million in face amount of our outstanding convertible notes for $46.7 million.

Share Repurchase

We have an existing share repurchase program that authorizes management, at its discretion, to repurchase up to $20.0 million of our outstanding Common Shares. The program may be discontinued or extended at any time and there is no assurance that we will purchase the full amount authorized. Under this program we have repurchased 2.1 million Common Shares, none of which were repurchased after December 2001. As of December 31, 2010, management may repurchase up to approximately $7.5 million of our outstanding Common Shares under this program.

SOURCES OF LIQUIDITY

We intend on using Fund III, as well as new funds that we may establish in the future, as the primary vehicles for our future acquisitions, including potential investments in the RCP Venture and New York Urban/Infill Redevelopment Initiative. Additional sources of capital for funding property acquisitions, redevelopment, expansion and re-tenanting and RCP Venture investments, are expected to be obtained primarily from (i) the issuance of public equity or debt instruments, (ii) cash on hand and cash flow from operating activities, (iii) additional debt financings, (iv) noncontrolling interests’ unfunded capital commitments of $325.2 million for Fund III and (v) future sales of existing properties.

During 2010, Fund II received capital contributions of $41.9 million to fund redevelopment projects and partially pay down a line of credit facility.

42


As of December 31, 2010, we had cash and cash equivalents on hand of $120.6 million and $103.9 million of additional capacity under existing debt facilities.

Shelf Registration Statements and Issuance of Equity

During April 2009, we filed a shelf registration on Form S-3 providing for offerings of up to a total of $500.0 million of Common Shares, Preferred Shares and debt securities. During April 2009, we issued 5.75 million Common Shares and generated net proceeds of approximately $65.0 million. The proceeds were primarily used to purchase a portion of our outstanding convertible notes payable and pay down existing lines of credit. Following this issuance, we have remaining capacity under this registration statement to issue up to approximately $430.0 million of these securities.

Asset Sales

Asset sales are an additional source of liquidity for us. In March 2010, we sold the Sterling Heights Shopping Center, which was owned through Fund I, for $2.3 million. During November 2009, we sold Blackman Plaza for $2.5 million, which resulted in a gain on sale of $1.5 million. During February 2009, we sold six locations in our Fund I’s Kroger/Safeway Portfolio for $14.6 million of which Fund I’s share of the sales proceeds amounted to $8.1 million after the repayment of the mortgage debt on these properties. During April 2008, we sold a residential complex located in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. These sales are discussed in “ASSET SALES AND CAPITAL/ASSET RECYCLING” in Item 1 of this Form 10-K.

Notes Receivable and Preferred Equity Repayment

Reference is made to Note 5 in our Consolidated Financial Statements, which begin on Page F-1 of this Form 10-K, for an overview of our notes receivable and preferred equity investment. During 2010, the following payments were received on these investements:

During April 2010, we received a $2.1 million first mortgage loan payment.

During September 2010, we received the full repayment of our $40.0 million preferred equity investment, which was secured by a portfolio of 18 properties located in Georgetown, Washington D.C., along with $9.4 million of preferred return.

Financing and Debt

At December 31, 2010, mortgage and convertible notes payable aggregated $854.9 million, net of unamortized premium of $0.1 million, and unamortized discount of $1.1 million, and were collateralized by 29 properties and related tenant leases. Interest rates on our outstanding indebtedness ranged from 0.86% to 7.34% with maturities that ranged from March 2011 to November 2032. Taking into consideration $71.5 million of notional principal under variable to fixed-rate swap agreements currently in effect, $415.0 million of the portfolio, or 49%, was fixed at a 5.7% weighted average interest rate and $439.9 million, or 51% was floating at a 3.4% weighted average interest rate. There is $385.7 million of debt maturing in 2011 at weighted average interest rates of 2.8%. Of this amount, $4.8 million represents scheduled annual amortization. The loans relating to $159.7 million of the 2011 maturities provide for extension options, which we believe we will be able to exercise. As it relates to maturities, we may not have sufficient cash on hand to repay such indebtedness and, as such, we may have to refinance this indebtedness or select other alternatives based on market conditions at that time.

OFF BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

We have investments in the following joint ventures for the purpose of investing in operating properties. We account for these investments using the equity method of accounting as we have noncontrolling interests. As such, our financial statements reflect our share of income and loss from but not the assets and liabilities of these joint ventures.

Reference is made to Note 4 to our Consolidated Financial Statements, which begin on page F-1 of this Form 10-K, for a discussion of our unconsolidated investments. Our pro-rata share of unconsolidated debt related to those investments is as follows:

In addition, we have arranged for the provision of three separate letters of credit in connection with certain leases and investments. As of December 31, 2010 there were no outstanding balances under any of the letters of credit. If the letters of credit were fully drawn, the combined maximum amount of exposure would be $9.1 million.

In addition to our derivative financial instruments, one of our unconsolidated affiliates, White City, was a party to an interest rate LIBOR swap with a notional value of $20 million, which effectively fixes the interest rate at 5.5% and expires in December 2017. Our pro-rata share of the fair value of the derivative liability totaled $0.1 million at December 31, 2010.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based upon our Consolidated Financial Statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these Consolidated Financial Statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. We base our estimates on historical experience and assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We believe the following critical accounting policies affect the significant judgments and estimates used by us in the preparation of our Consolidated Financial Statements.

Valuation of Property Held for Use and Sale

On a quarterly basis, we review the carrying value of both properties held for use and for sale. We perform the impairment analysis by calculating and reviewing net operating income on a property-by-property basis. We evaluate leasing projections and perform other analyses to conclude whether an asset is impaired. We record impairment losses and reduce the carrying value of properties when indicators of impairment are present and the expected undiscounted cash flows related to those properties are less than their carrying amounts. In cases where we do not expect to recover our carrying costs on properties held for use, we reduce our carrying cost to fair value. For properties held for sale, we reduce our carrying value to the fair value less costs to sell. For the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, no impairment losses on our properties were recognized. Management does not believe that the value of any properties in its portfolio was impaired as of December 31, 2010.

Investments in and Advances to Unconsolidated Joint Ventures

The Company periodically reviews its investment in unconsolidated joint ventures for other than temporary declines in market value. Any decline that is not expected to be recovered in the next twelve months is considered other than temporary and an impairment charge is recorded as a reduction in the carrying value of the investment. During the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company recorded a $3.8 million impairment reserve related to a Fund I unconsolidated joint venture. No impairment charges related to the Company’s investment in unconsolidated joint ventures were recognized for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2008.

45


Bad Debts

We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of tenants to make payments on arrearages in billed rents, as well as the likelihood that tenants will not have the ability to make payments on unbilled rents including estimated expense recoveries. We also maintain a reserve for straight-line rent receivables. For the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, the allowance for doubtful accounts totaled $7.5 million and $7.0 million, respectively. If the financial condition of our tenants were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required.

Real Estate

Real estate assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Expenditures for acquisition, development, construction and improvement of properties, as well as significant renovations are capitalized. Interest costs are capitalized until construction is substantially complete. Construction in progress includes costs for significant property expansion and redevelopment. Depreciation is computed on the straight-line basis over estimated useful lives of 30 to 40 years for buildings, the shorter of the useful life or lease term for tenant improvements and five years for furniture, fixtures and equipment. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred.

Upon acquisitions of real estate, we assess the fair value of acquired assets (including land, buildings and improvements, and identified intangibles such as above and below market leases and acquired in-place leases and customer relationships) and acquired liabilities in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 805 “Business Combinations” and ASC Topic 350 “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other,” and allocate purchase price based on these assessments. We assess fair value based on estimated cash flow projections that utilize appropriate discount and capitalization rates and available market information. Estimates of future cash flows are based on a number of factors including the historical operating results, known trends, and market/economic conditions that may affect the property.

Revenue Recognition and Accounts Receivable

Leases with tenants are accounted for as operating leases. Minimum rents are recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the respective leases, beginning when the tenant takes possession of the space. Certain of these leases also provide for percentage rents based upon the level of sales achieved by the tenant. Percentage rent is recognized in the period when the tenants’ sales breakpoint is met. In addition, leases typically provide for the reimbursement to us of real estate taxes, insurance and other property operating expenses. These reimbursements are recognized as revenue in the period the expenses are incurred.

We make estimates of the uncollectability of our accounts receivable related to tenant revenues. An allowance for doubtful accounts has been provided against certain tenant accounts receivable that are estimated to be uncollectible. See “Bad Debts” above. Once the amount is ultimately deemed to be uncollectible, it is written off.

Notes Receivable and Preferred Equity Investment

Real estate notes receivable and preferred equity investments are intended to be held to maturity and are carried at cost. Interest income from notes receivable and preferred equity investments are recognized on the effective interest method over the expected life of the loan. Under the effective interest method, interest or fees to be collected at the origination of the loan or the payoff of the loan is recognized over the term of the loan as an adjustment to yield.

Allowances for real estate notes receivable and preferred equity investments are established based upon management’s quarterly review of the investments. In performing this review, management considers the estimated net recoverable value of the loan as well as other factors, including the fair value of any collateral, the amount and status of any senior debt, and the prospects for the borrower. Because this determination is based upon projections of future economic events, which are inherently subjective, the amounts ultimately realized from the loans may differ materially from the carrying value at the balance sheet date. Interest income recognition is generally suspended for loans when, in the opinion of management, a full recovery of income and principal becomes doubtful. Income recognition is resumed when the suspended loan becomes contractually current and performance is demonstrated to be resumed.

During 2009, we provided a $1.7 million reserve on a note receivable as a result of the loss of an anchor tenant at the underlying collateral property.

During 2008, we provided a $4.4 million reserve on a note receivable collateralized by an interest in an entity owning retail complexes associated with seven public rest stops along the toll roads in and around Chicago, Illinois. The note and all accrued interest was subsequently cancelled during 2009.

INFLATION

Our long-term leases contain provisions designed to mitigate the adverse impact of inflation on our net income. Such provisions include clauses enabling us to receive percentage rents based on tenants’ gross sales, which generally increase as prices rise, and/or, in certain cases, escalation clauses, which generally increase rental rates during the terms of the leases. Such escalation clauses are often related to increases in the consumer price index or similar inflation indexes. In addition, many of our leases are for terms of less than

46


ten years, which permits us to seek to increase rents upon re-rental at market rates if current rents are below the then existing market rates. Most of our leases require the tenants to pay their share of operating expenses, including common area maintenance, real estate taxes, insurance and utilities, thereby reducing our exposure to increases in costs and operating expenses resulting from inflation.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

Information as of December 31, 2010

Our primary market risk exposure is to changes in interest rates related to our mortgage debt. See Note 8 to our Consolidated Financial Statements, which begin on page F-1 of this Form 10-K, for certain quantitative details related to our mortgage debt.

Currently, we manage our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates primarily through the use of fixed-rate debt and interest rate swap agreements. As of December 31, 2010, we had total mortgage and convertible notes payable of $854.9 million of which $415.0 million, or 49% was fixed-rate, inclusive of debt with rates fixed through the use of derivative financial instruments, and $439.9 million, or 51%, was variable-rate based upon LIBOR rates plus certain spreads. As of December 31, 2010, we were a party to seven interest rate swap transactions and one interest rate cap transaction to hedge our exposure to changes in interest rates with respect to $71.5 million and $28.9 million of LIBOR-based variable-rate debt, respectively. In addition, one of our unconsolidated partnerships was a party to an interest rate swap transaction with respect to $20.0 million of LIBOR-based variable-rate debt.

The following table sets forth information as of December 31, 2010 concerning our long-term debt obligations, including principal cash flows by scheduled maturity and weighted average interest rates of maturing amounts (dollars in millions):

$384.6 million of our total consolidated debt and $0.1 million of our pro-rata share of unconsolidated outstanding debt will become due in 2011. $53.4 million of our total consolidated debt and $0.5 million of our pro-rata share of unconsolidated debt will become due in 2012. As we intend on refinancing some or all of such debt at the then-existing market interest rates, which may be greater than the current interest rate, our interest expense would increase by approximately $4.4 million annually if the interest rate on the refinanced debt increased by 100 basis points. After giving effect to noncontrolling interests, the Company’s share of this increase would be $1.5 million. Interest expense on our variable debt of $439.9 million, net of variable to fixed-rate swap agreements currently in effect, as of December 31, 2010 would increase $4.4 million if LIBOR increased by 100 basis points. After giving effect to noncontrolling interests, the Company’s share of this increase would be $0.6 million. We may seek additional variable-rate financing if and when pricing and other commercial and financial terms warrant. As such, we would consider hedging against the interest rate risk related to such additional variable-rate debt through interest rate swaps and protection agreements, or other means.

Based on our outstanding debt balances as of December 31, 2010, the fair value of our total consolidated outstanding debt would decrease by approximately $12.6 million if interest rates increase by 1%. Conversely, if interest rates decrease by 1%, the fair value of our total outstanding debt would increase by approximately $13.8 million.

As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, we had notes receivable and preferred equity investments of $89.2 million and $125.2 million, respectively. We determined the estimated fair value of our notes receivable and preferred equity investments as of December 31,

47


2010 and 2009 were $90.6 million and $126.4 million, respectively, by discounting future cash receipts utilizing a discount rate equivalent to the rate at which similar notes receivable would be originated under conditions then existing.

Based on our outstanding notes receivable and preferred equity investments balances as of December 31, 2010, the fair value of our total outstanding notes receivable and preferred equity investments would decrease by approximately $0.5 million if interest rates increase by 1%. Conversely, if interest rates decrease by 1%, the fair value of our total outstanding notes receivable and preferred equity investments would increase by approximately $0.5 million.

Summarized Information as of December 31, 2009

As of December 31, 2009, we had total mortgage and convertible notes payable of $780.1 million of which $439.0 million, or 56% was fixed-rate, inclusive of interest rate swaps, and $341.1 million, or 44%, was variable-rate based upon LIBOR plus certain spreads. As of December 31, 2009, we were a party to eight interest rate swap transactions and one interest rate cap transaction to hedge our exposure to changes in interest rates with respect to $83.4 million and $30.0 million of LIBOR-based variable-rate debt, respectively.

Interest expense on our variable debt of $341.1 million as of December 31, 2009 would have increased $3.4 million if LIBOR increased by 100 basis points. Based on our outstanding debt balances as of December 31, 2009, the fair value of our total outstanding debt would have decreased by approximately $18.3 million if interest rates increased by 1%. Conversely, if interest rates decreased by 1%, the fair value of our total outstanding debt would have increased by approximately $20.5 million.

Changes in Market Risk Exposures from 2009 to 2010

Our interest rate risk exposure from December 31, 2009 to December 31, 2010 has increased, as we had $341.1 million in variable-rate debt (or 44% of our total debt) at December 31, 2009, as compared to $439.9 million (or 51% of our total debt) in variable-rate debt at December 31, 2010. In addition, the amount of our total debt increased from $780.1 million at December 31, 2009 to $854.9 million at December 31, 2010. This increased amount of debt could expose us to greater fluctuations in the fair value of our debt.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

(i) Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2010 to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

(ii) Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

(a) Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Management of Acadia Realty Trust is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Rule 13(a)-15(f). Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010 as required by the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Rule 13(a)-15(c). In making this assessment, we used the criteria set forth in the framework in Internal Control–Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the “COSO criteria”). Based on our evaluation under the COSO criteria, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2010 to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

BDO USA, LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm that audited our Financial Statements included in this Annual Report, has issued an attestation report on our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010, which appears in paragraph (b) of this Item 9A.

Acadia Realty Trust

(b) Attestation report of the independent registered public accounting firm

The Shareholders and Trustees of
Acadia Realty Trust

We have audited Acadia Realty Trust and subsidiaries’ internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the “COSO criteria”). Acadia Realty Trust and subsidiaries’ management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on a company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control, based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In our opinion, Acadia Realty Trust and subsidiaries maintained in all material respects effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010, based on the COSO criteria.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets of Acadia Realty Trust and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2010 and 2009 and the related consolidated statements of income, shareholders’ equity and comprehensive income, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2010 and our report dated February 28, 2011 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

(c) Changes in internal control over financial reporting

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting during our fourth fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2010 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Shareholders and Trustees of
Acadia Realty Trust

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Acadia Realty Trust and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2010 and 2009 and the related consolidated statements of income, shareholders’ equity and comprehensive income, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2010. In connection with our audits of the financial statements we have also audited the accompanying financial statement schedule listed on page F-1. These financial statements and schedule are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedule based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements and schedules. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Acadia Realty Trust and subsidiaries at December 31, 2010, and 2009 and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2010, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America.

Also, in our opinion, the financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), Acadia Realty Trust and subsidiaries’ internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) and our report dated February 28, 2011 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

ACADIA REALTY TRUST AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Organization, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Acadia Realty Trust (the “Trust”) and subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) is a fully integrated, self-managed and self-administered equity real estate investment trust (“REIT”) focused primarily on the ownership, acquisition, redevelopment and management of retail properties, including neighborhood and community shopping centers and mixed-use properties with retail components.

As of December 31, 2010, the Company operated 79 properties, which it owns or has an ownership interest in, principally located in the Northeast, Mid-Atlantic and Midwest regions of the United States.

All of the Company’s assets are held by, and all of its operations are conducted through, Acadia Realty Limited Partnership (the “Operating Partnership”) and entities in which the Operating Partnership owns a controlling interest. As of December 31, 2010, the Trust controlled 99% of the Operating Partnership as the sole general partner. As the general partner, the Trust is entitled to share, in proportion to its percentage interest, in the cash distributions and profits and losses of the Operating Partnership. The limited partners represent entities or individuals who contributed their interests in certain properties or entities to the Operating Partnership in exchange for common or preferred units of limited partnership interest (“Common or Preferred OP Units”). Limited partners holding Common OP Units are generally entitled to exchange their units on a one-for-one basis for common shares of beneficial interest of the Trust (“Common Shares”). This structure is referred to as an umbrella partnership REIT or “UPREIT.”

The Company formed Acadia Strategic Opportunity Fund I, LP (“Fund I”), and formed Acadia Mervyn Investors I, LLC (“Mervyns I”), with four institutional investors. The Operating Partnership committed a total of $20.0 million to Fund I and Mervyns I, and the four institutional shareholders committed a total of $70.0 million for the purpose of acquiring real estate investments. As of December 31, 2010, Fund I was fully invested, with the Operating Partnership having contributed $16.5 million to Fund I and $2.7 million to Mervyns I.

The Operating Partnership is the general partner of Fund I and sole managing member of Mervyns I, with a 22.2% interest in both Fund I and Mervyns I and is also entitled to a profit participation in excess of its invested capital based on certain investment return thresholds (“Promote”). Cash flow is distributed pro-rata to the partners and members (including the Operating Partnership) until they receive a 9% cumulative return (“Preferred Return”), and the return of all capital contributions. Thereafter, remaining cash flow (which is net of distributions and fees to the Operating Partnership for management, asset management, leasing, construction and legal services) is distributed 20% to the Operating Partnership as a Promote and 80% to the partners (including the Operating Partnership). As all contributed capital and accumulated preferred return has been distributed to investors, the Operating Partnership is currently entitled to a Promote on all earnings and distributions.

The Company formed Acadia Strategic Opportunity Fund II, LLC (“Fund II”), and formed Acadia Mervyn Investors II, LLC (“Mervyns II”), with the investors from Fund I as well as two additional institutional investors with a total of $300.0 million of committed discretionary capital. The Operating Partnership’s share of committed capital is $60.0 million. The Operating Partnership is the managing member with a 20% interest in both Fund II and Mervyns II. The terms and structure of Fund II and Mervyns II are substantially the same as Fund I and Mervyns I, including the Promote structure, with the exception that the Preferred Return is 8%. As of December 31, 2010, the Operating Partnership had contributed $45.4 million to Fund II and $7.6 million to Mervyns II.

The Company formed Acadia Strategic Opportunity Fund III LLC (“Fund III”) with fourteen institutional investors, including a majority of the investors from Fund I and Fund II with a total of $502.5 million of committed discretionary capital. The Operating Partnership’s share of the invested capital is $100.0 million and it is the managing member with a 19.9% interest in Fund III. The terms and structure of Fund III are substantially the same as the previous Funds I and II, including the Promote structure, with the exception that the Preferred Return is 6%. As of December 31, 2010, the Operating Partnership had contributed $19.2 million to Fund III.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the consolidated accounts of the Company and its controlling investments in partnerships and limited liability companies in which the Company has control in accordance Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 810 “Consolidation” (“ASC Topic 810”). The ownership interests of other investors in these entities are recorded as noncontrolling interests. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Investments in entities for which the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence over, but does not have financial or operating control, are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Accordingly, the Company’s share of the earnings (or losses) of these entities are included in consolidated net income.

F-9

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Organization, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, continued

Principles of Consolidation, continued

Variable interest entities are accounted for within the scope of ASC Topic 810 and are required to be consolidated by their primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity is the enterprise that has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the variable interest entity’s economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits of the variable interest entity that could be significant to the variable interest entity. Management has evaluated the applicability of ASC Topic 810 to its investments in certain joint ventures and determined that these joint ventures are not variable interest entities or that the Company is not the primary beneficiary and, therefore, consolidation of these ventures is not required. These investments are accounted for using the equity method.

Investments in and Advances to Unconsolidated Joint Ventures

The Company accounts for its investments in unconsolidated joint ventures using the equity method as it does not exercise control over significant asset decisions such as buying, selling or financing nor is it the primary beneficiary under ASC Topic 810, as discussed above. The Company does have significant influence over the investments which requires equity method accounting. Under the equity method, the Company increases its investment for its proportionate share of net income and contributions to the joint venture and decreases its investment balance by recording its proportionate share of net loss and distributions. The Company recognizes income for distributions in excess of its investment where there is no recourse to the Company. For investments in which there is recourse to the Company, distributions in excess of the investment are recorded as a liability. Although the Company accounts for its investment in Albertson’s (Note 4) under the equity method of accounting, the Company adopted the policy of not recording its equity in earnings or losses of this unconsolidated affiliate until it receives the audited financial statements of Albertson’s to support the equity earnings or losses in accordance with ASC Topic 323 “Investments – Equity Method and Joint Ventures”.

The Company periodically reviews its investment in unconsolidated joint ventures for other than temporary losses in investment value. Any decline that is not expected to be recovered is considered other than temporary and an impairment charge is recorded as a reduction in the carrying value of the investment. During the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, impairment charges related to the Company’s investment in unconsolidated joint ventures were $0.0 million, $3.8 million and $0.0 million, respectively.

Use of Estimates

Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) require the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. The most significant assumptions and estimates relate to the valuation of real estate, depreciable lives, revenue recognition and the collectability of trade accounts receivable. Application of these assumptions requires the exercise of judgment as to future uncertainties and, as a result, actual results could differ from these estimates.

Real Estate

Real estate assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Expenditures for acquisition, development, construction and improvement of properties, as well as significant renovations are capitalized. Interest costs are capitalized until construction is substantially complete and the real estate is ready for its intended use. Construction in progress includes costs for significant property expansion and redevelopment. Depreciation is computed on the straight-line basis over estimated useful lives of 30 to 40 years for buildings, the shorter of the useful life or lease term for tenant improvements and five years for furniture, fixtures and equipment. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred.

Upon acquisitions of real estate, the Company assesses the fair value of acquired assets (including land, buildings and improvements, and identified intangibles such as above and below market leases and acquired in-place leases and customer relationships) and acquired liabilities in accordance with ASC Topic 805 “Business Combinations” and ASC Topic 350 “Intangibles – Goodwill and

F-10

Real Estate, continued

Other”, and allocates acquisition price based on these assessments. Fixed-rate renewal options have been included in the calculation of the fair value of acquired leases. To the extent there were fixed-rate options at below-market rental rates, the Company included these along with the current term below-market rent in arriving at the fair value of the acquired leases. The discounted difference between contract and market rents is being amortized over the remaining applicable lease term, inclusive of any option periods. The Company assesses fair value based on estimated cash flow projections that utilize appropriate discount and capitalization rates and available market information. Estimates of future cash flows are based on a number of factors including the historical operating results, known trends, and market/economic conditions that may affect the property.

The Company reviews its long-lived assets used in operations for impairment when there is an event, or change in circumstances that indicates that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. The Company records impairment losses and reduces the carrying value of properties when indicators of impairment are present and the expected undiscounted cash flows related to those properties are less than their carrying amounts. In cases where the Company does not expect to recover its carrying costs on properties held for use, the Company reduces its carrying cost to fair value, and for properties held for sale, the Company reduces its carrying value to the fair value less costs to sell. During the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, no impairment losses were recognized. Management does not believe that the values of its properties within the portfolio are impaired as of December 31, 2010.

Sale of Real Estate

The Company recognizes property sales in accordance with ASC Topic 970 “Real Estate”. The Company generally records the sales of operating properties and outparcels using the full accrual method at closing when the earnings process is deemed to be complete. Sales not qualifying for full recognition at the time of sale are accounted for under other appropriate deferral methods.

Real Estate Held for Sale

The Company evaluates the held-for-sale classification of its real estate each quarter. Assets that are classified as held for sale are recorded at the lower of their carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. Assets are generally classified as held for sale once management has initiated an active program to market them for sale and has received a firm purchase commitment. The results of operations of these real estate properties are reflected as discontinued operations in all periods reported.

On occasion, the Company will receive unsolicited offers from third parties to buy individual Company properties. Under these circumstances, the Company will classify the properties as held for sale when a sales contract is executed with no contingencies and the prospective buyer has funds at risk to ensure performance.

Deferred Costs

Fees and costs paid in the successful negotiation of leases are deferred and amortized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the respective leases. Fees and costs incurred in connection with obtaining financing are deferred and amortized over the term of the related debt obligation.

Management Contracts

Income from management contracts is recognized on an accrual basis as such fees are earned. The initial acquisition cost of the management contracts are amortized over the estimated lives of the contracts acquired.

Revenue Recognition and Accounts Receivable

Leases with tenants are accounted for as operating leases. Minimum rents are recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the respective leases, beginning when the tenant is entitled to take possession of the space. As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, included in rents receivable, net on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, unbilled rents receivable relating to straight-lining of rents were $17.1 million and $12.7 million, respectively. Certain of these leases also provide for percentage rents based upon the level of sales achieved by the tenant. Percentage rent is recognized in the period when the tenants’ sales breakpoint is met. In addition, leases typically provide for the reimbursement to the Company of real estate taxes, insurance and other property operating expenses. These reimbursements are recognized as revenue in the period the expenses are incurred.

The Company makes estimates of the uncollectability of its accounts receivable related to tenant revenues. An allowance for doubtful accounts has been provided against certain tenant accounts receivable that are estimated to be uncollectible. Once the amount is ultimately deemed to be uncollectible, it is written off. Rents receivable at December 31, 2010 and 2009 are shown net of an allowance for doubtful accounts of $7.5 million and $7.0 million, respectively.

F-11


ACADIA REALTY TRUST AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Organization, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, continued

Notes Receivable and Preferred Equity Investments

Notes receivable and preferred equity investments are intended to be held to maturity and are carried at amortized cost. Interest income from notes receivable and preferred equity investments are recognized on the effective interest method over the expected life of the loan. Under the effective interest method, interest or fees to be collected at the origination of the loan or the payoff of the loan are recognized over the term of the loan as an adjustment to yield.

Allowances for real estate notes receivable are established based upon management’s quarterly review of the investments. In performing this review, management considers the estimated net recoverable value of the loan as well as other factors, including the fair value of any collateral, the amount and status of any senior debt, and the prospects for the borrower. Because this determination is based upon projections of future economic events, which are inherently subjective, the amounts ultimately realized from the loans may differ materially from the carrying value at the balance sheet date. Interest income recognition is generally suspended for loans when, in the opinion of management, a full recovery of income and principal becomes doubtful. Income recognition is resumed when the suspended loan becomes contractually current and performance is demonstrated to be resumed.

During 2009, the Company provided a $1.7 million reserve on a note receivable as a result of the loss of an anchor tenant at the underlying collateral property. During 2008, the Company provided a $4.4 million reserve on a note receivable collateralized by an interest in an entity owning retail complexes associated with seven public rest stops along the toll roads in and around Chicago, Illinois. The note and all accrued interest was subsequently cancelled during 2009. Management believes that the balance of notes receivable are collectible as of December 31, 2010.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents are maintained at financial institutions and, at times, balances may exceed the federally insured limit by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The Company has never experienced any losses related to these balances.

Restricted Cash and Cash in Escrow

Restricted cash and cash in escrow consist principally of cash held for real estate taxes, construction costs, property maintenance, insurance, minimum occupancy and property operating income requirements at specific properties as required by certain loan agreements.

Income Taxes

The Company has made an election to be taxed, and believes it qualifies as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). To maintain REIT status for Federal income tax purposes, the Company is generally required to distribute at least 90% of its REIT taxable income to its stockholders as well as comply with certain other income, asset and organizational requirements as defined in the Code. Accordingly, the Company is generally not subject to Federal corporate income tax to the extent that it distributes 100% of its REIT taxable income each year.

Although it may qualify for REIT status for Federal income tax purposes, the Company is subject to state income or franchise taxes in certain states in which some of its properties are located. In addition, taxable income from non-REIT activities managed through the Company’s taxable REIT subsidiary (“TRS”) is fully subject to Federal, state and local income taxes.

The Company accounts for TRS income taxes under the liability method as required by ASC Topic 740 “Income Taxes.” Under the liability method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the temporary differences between GAAP basis and the tax basis of the TRS income, assets and liabilities.

In accordance with ASC Topic 740 “Income Taxes” (formerly FASB Financial Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – an interpretation of SFAS No. 109”), the Company believes that it has appropriate support for the income tax positions taken and, as such, does not have any uncertain tax positions that result in a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operation. The prior three years’ income tax returns are subject to review by the Internal Revenue Service. The Company will recognize potential interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions, if any, as a component of the provision for income taxes.

Stock-based Compensation

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation pursuant to ASC Topic 718 “Compensation – Stock Compensation”. As such, all equity based awards are reflected as compensation expense in the Company’s consolidated financial statements over their vesting period based on the fair value at the date of grant.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

During June 2009, the FASB issued a new accounting standard, which provided certain changes to the evaluation of a variable interest entity (“VIE”) including requiring a qualitative rather than a quantitative analysis to determine the primary beneficiary of a VIE, continuous assessments of whether an enterprise is the primary beneficiary of a VIE and enhanced disclosures about an enterprise’s involvement with a VIE. Under the new standard, the primary beneficiary has both the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact economic performance of the VIE and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The adoption of the standard on January 1, 2010 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

During January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2010-06 “Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements,” which provides for new disclosures, as well as clarification of existing disclosures on fair value measurements. The adoption of the standard on January 1, 2010 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position and results of operations.

During February 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-09 “Subsequent Events (ASC Topic 855) Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements,” which requires an entity that is an SEC filer to evaluate subsequent events through the date that the financial statements are issued and removes the requirement for an SEC filer to disclose a date through which subsequent events have been evaluated. The adoption did not have an impact on the Company’s financial position and results of operations.

During July 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-20 “Receivables (ASC Topic 310) Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses,” which requires companies to provide more information about the credit quality of their financing receivables in the disclosures to financial statements including, but not limited to, significant purchases and sales of financing receivables, aging information and credit quality indicators. The adoption of this accounting guidance did not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

2. Acquisition and Disposition of Properties and Discontinued Operations

A. Acquisition and Disposition of Properties

Acquisitions

On December 23, 2010, the Company, through Fund III in a joint venture with an unaffiliated partner, acquired White City Shopping Center, a 255,000 square foot center located in Shrewsbury, Massachusetts for $56.0 million.

Prior to June 30, 2010, the Company, through Fund II in a joint venture with an unaffiliated partner, California Urban Investment Partners, LLC (“CUIP”), owned a leasehold interest in CityPoint, a mixed-use, redevelopment project located in downtown Brooklyn, New York. Fund II owned a 75% interest in the retail component, a 50% interest in the office component and no interest in the residential component of CityPoint. CUIP owned the remaining interests in the retail and office components and 100% of the residential component of the project. Accordingly, Fund II’s investment represented 24.75% of the overall original acquisition cost and subsequent carry and pre-development costs and was accounted for using the equity method.

On June 30, 2010, Fund II acquired all of CUIP’s interest in CityPoint for $9.2 million (the “Transaction”), consisting of a current payment of $2.0 million and deferred payments, potentially through 2020, aggregating $7.2 million. Fund II also assumed CUIP’s share of the first mortgage debt, $19.6 million.

The Transaction was a business combination achieved in stages, and as a result, Fund II was required to report its entire investment in CityPoint at fair market value. Based on a June 30, 2010 third-party appraisal, CityPoint was valued at $108.0 million which resulted in Fund II recording a non-cash gain from bargain purchase of approximately $33.8 million. A majority of the gain was attributable to the components of CityPoint that was acquired as the book value of the Company’s original investment approximated fair value. The Operating Partnership’s share of this gain, net of the noncontrolling interests’ share, totaled $6.3 million.

As a result of the Transaction, the Company changed its method of accounting for CityPoint from the equity method and now consolidates CityPoint in its consolidated financial statements.

3. Segment Reporting

The Company has five reportable segments: Core Portfolio, Opportunity Funds, Self-Storage Portfolio, Notes Receivable and Other. Notes Receivable consists of the Company’s notes receivable and preferred equity investment and related interest income. Other consists primarily of management fees and interest income. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. The Company evaluates property performance primarily based on net operating income before depreciation, amortization and certain nonrecurring items. Investments in the Core Portfolio are typically held long-term. Given the contemplated finite life of the Opportunity Funds, these investments are typically held for shorter terms. Fees earned by the Company as the general partner/member of the Opportunity Funds are eliminated in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The following table sets forth certain segment information for the Company, reclassified for discontinued operations, as of and for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009, and 2008 (does not include unconsolidated affiliates):

4. Investments In and Advances to Unconsolidated Affiliates

Core Portfolio

Brandywine Portfolio

The Company owns a 22.2% interest in an approximately one million square foot retail portfolio (the “Brandywine Portfolio”) located in Wilmington, Delaware that is accounted for under the equity method.

Crossroads

The Company owns a 49% interest in the Crossroads Joint Venture and Crossroads II (collectively, “Crossroads”), which own a 311,000 square foot shopping center located in White Plains, New York that is accounted for under the equity method.

Opportunity Funds

RCP Venture

The Company along with Klaff Realty, LP (“Klaff”) and Lubert-Adler Management, Inc., formed an investment group, the RCP Venture, for the purpose of making investments in surplus or underutilized properties owned by retailers. The RCP Venture is neither a single entity nor a specific investment. Any member of this group has the option of participating, or not, in any individual investment and each individual investment has been made on a stand-alone basis through a separate limited liability company (“LLC”). These investments have been made through different investment vehicles with different affiliated and unaffiliated investors and different economics to the Company. Investments under the RCP Venture are structured as separate joint ventures as there may be other investors participating in certain investments in addition to Klaff, Lubert-Adler and Acadia. The Company has made these investments through its subsidiaries, Mervyns I, Mervyns II and Fund II, (together the “Acadia Investors”), all on a non-recourse basis. Through December 31, 2010, the Acadia Investors have made investments in Mervyns Department Stores (“Mervyns”) and Albertson’s including additional investments in locations that are separate from these original investments (“Add-On Investments”). Additionally, they have invested in Shopko, Marsh and Rex Stores Corporation (collectively “Other RCP Investments”).

Mervyns Department Stores

Through Mervyns I and Mervyns II, the Company invested in a consortium to acquire Mervyns consisting of 262 stores (“REALCO”) and its retail operation (“OPCO”) from Target Corporation. The Company’s share of this investment was $23.2 million. Subsequent to the initial acquisition, the Company, through Mervyns I and Mervyns II, made additional investments of $2.9 million. To date, REALCO has disposed of a significant portion of the portfolio. In addition, in November 2007, the Company sold its interest in OPCO and, as a result, has no further investment in OPCO. Through December 31, 2010, the Company has received distributions from this investment totaling $46.0 million.

Through December 31, 2010, the Company, through Mervyns I and Mervyns II, made Add-On Investments in Mervyns totaling $6.5 million and have received distributions totaling $1.7 million.

Albertson’s

The RCP Venture made its second investment as part of an investment consortium, acquiring Albertson’s and Cub Foods, of which the Company’s share was $20.7 million. Through December 31, 2010, the Company has received distributions from this investment totaling $77.1 million, including $11.4 million received in 2010.

Through December 31, 2010, the Company, through Mervyns II, made Add-On Investments in Albertson’s totaling $2.4 million and received distributions totaling $1.2 million.

Other Opportunity Fund Investments

Fund I Investments

Fund I owned a 50% interest in the Sterling Heights Shopping Center, which was accounted for under the equity method of accounting. During the year ended December 31, 2009, Fund I recorded an impairment reserve of $3.7 million related to this investment. On March 25, 2010, the Sterling Heights Shopping Center was sold for $2.3 million. The proceeds from this sale together with the balance of Fund I’s recourse obligation of $0.6 million were used to fully liquidate the outstanding mortgage loan obligation.

Fund II Investments

Fund II had a 24.75% interest in CityPoint, a redevelopment project located in downtown Brooklyn, NY, which was accounted for under the equity method. On June 30, 2010, Fund II acquired the remaining interests in the project from its unaffiliated partner, as discussed in Note 2 and, as a result, now consolidates the CityPoint investment.

Fund III Investments

On December 23, 2010, Fund III, in a joint venture with an unaffiliated partner, acquired the 255,200 square foot White City Shopping Center in Shrewsbury, Massachusetts for $56.0 million. Fund III has an 84% interest in the property. The unaffiliated joint venture partner will maintain control over this entity, and as such, the Company accounts for this investment under the equity method.

During June 2010, Fund III, in a joint venture with an unaffiliated partner, invested in an entity for the purpose of providing management services to owners of self-storage properties, including the 14 locations currently owned through Fund II and Fund III. Fund III has a 50% interest in the entity. This entity was determined to be a variable interest entity for which the Company was determined not to be the primary beneficiary. As such, the Company accounts for this investment under the equity method.

8. Mortgages Payable

At December 31, 2010 and 2009, mortgage notes payable, excluding the net valuation premium on the assumption of debt, aggregated $806.1 million and $732.2 million, respectively, and were collateralized by 29 and 28 properties and related tenant leases, respectively. Interest rates on the Company’s outstanding mortgage indebtedness ranged from 0.86% to 7.34% with maturities that ranged from March 2011 to November 2032. Certain loans are cross-collateralized and contain cross-default provisions. The loan agreements contain customary representations, covenants and events of default. Certain loan agreements require the Company to comply with affirmative and negative covenants, including the maintenance of debt service coverage and leverage ratios.

The following reflects mortgage loan activity for the year ended December 31, 2010:

i) During January 2010, the Company closed on a $48.0 million construction loan that bears interest at LIBOR plus 400 basis points, subject to an interest rate floor of 6.50% which matures on January 12, 2012. As of December 31, 2010, $40.2 million was drawn on this facility.

ii) During March 2010, the Company extended the Fund II subscription line of credit, which was collateralized by a pledge of investors’ unfunded capital commitments, from March 1, 2010 to March 1, 2011 and adjusted the interest rate from LIBOR plus 250 basis points to LIBOR plus 325 basis points. In connection with the extension, the Company made an $8.2 million payment on the outstanding $48.2 million line of credit and the line of credit’s maximum capacity was reduced to $40.0 million. During December 2010, the line of credit was extended further to December 22, 2014 and the interest rate reduced to LIBOR plus 290 basis points. This modification also requires principal reductions to (a) $15.0 million on October 31, 2013, (b) $11.3 million on February 1, 2014, (c) $7.5 million on May 1, 2014, and (d) $3.8 million on August 1, 2014. Additionally, a Company guarantee has replaced the unfunded capital commitments of the investors as collateral for this loan and the Company has agreed to maintain various restrictive covenants.

iii) During February of 2010, the Company paid off an outstanding line of credit balance of $2.0 million, which was collateralized by a property and scheduled to mature on March 29, 2010 and terminated the line of credit.

iv) During 2010, the Company made payments of $29.0 million on an outstanding $30.0 million credit facility collateralized by six properties.

v) During 2010, the Company made draws of $32.0 million on the Fund III subscription line of credit. As of December 31, 2010, the total outstanding amount on this line of credit was $171.5 million.

vi) During May of 2010, the Company borrowed an additional $2.0 million on an existing mortgage loan collateralized by a property.

vii) During July 2010, the Company amended and extended a $30.0 million loan, collateralized by a Fund II property located on 161st Street in the Bronx, NY. The agreement required a $1.1 million payment on the outstanding principal balance and extended the maturity date to April 1, 2013. The interest rate has been adjusted retroactively to LIBOR plus 400 basis points for the period April 1, 2010 through March 31, 2011, LIBOR plus 550 basis points for the period April 1, 2011 through March 31, 2012, and LIBOR plus 600 basis points for the period April 1, 2012 through March 31, 2013.

viii) During July of 2010, the Company closed on a $20.0 million bond financing that bears interest at a fixed rate of 7.25% that is due November 1, 2042 and has a mandatory put date of November 1, 2014.

ix) During August of 2010, the Company amended and extended the maturity date of a $25.9 million loan that was scheduled to mature in August of 2010. In connection with the release of a portion of the collateral for this loan, the Company was required to pay down the principal by $5.3 million. The amendment provided for a three year extension of the loan maturity date to August 12, 2013 with two one-year extension options.

x) Also during August of 2010, the Company completed an amendment of a $31.7 million construction loan. Previously, the servicer, on behalf of the lender of this loan, had previously alleged that non-monetary defaults had occurred, however it has subsequently agreed to dismiss all allegations of default. The loan continued to bear interest at 7.38% and had a maturity date of January 1, 2020. During December 2010, the Company closed on a new $34.0 million loan and used the proceeds to pay off this construction loan. The loan bears interest at LIBOR plus 275 basis points and matures on December 1, 2013. $31.6 million of the loan was funded at the closing and an additional $2.4 million was available for tenant improvements and leasing commissions.

xi) During September of 2010, the Company amended and extended the maturity date of a $10.5 million loan that was scheduled to mature during September 2010. The amendment required a $0.5 million principal pay down and provided for a one year extension of the loan maturity date to September 1, 2011 with a one year extension option and bears interest at LIBOR plus 325 basis points.

xii) During June 2009, the servicer, on behalf of the lender of one of the Company’s loans alleged that a non-monetary default had occurred on an $11.5 million construction loan collateralized by Atlantic Avenue. The servicer alleged that the Company did not substantially complete the improvements in accordance with the required completion date as defined in the loan agreement and, accordingly, did not meet the requirements for the final draw. During October 2010, the Company and the servicer reached an agreement to amend the loan whereby all alleged events of default were waived.

xiii) During October 2010, the Company modified and extended the maturity date of a $9.8 million loan that was scheduled to mature during October 2010. The amendment required a $1.4 million principal pay down and provided for a one year extension of the loan maturity date to October 31, 2011.

xiv) During October 2010, the Company closed on a $50.0 million loan collateralized by a property. The loan bears interest at LIBOR plus 190 basis points and matures on October 26, 2015. The proceeds of this loan were used to repay the existing $46.6 million mortgage note payable. There is an additional $25.0 million available, based on the property attaining certain debt service coverage ratio levels and the lender being able to syndicate the loan. The second tranche will bear interest at LIBOR plus 230 basis points.

9. Convertible Notes Payable

In December 2006 and January 2007, the Company issued a total of $115.0 million in principal of convertible notes with a fixed interest rate of 3.75% due 2026 (the “Convertible Notes”). The Convertible Notes were issued at par and require interest payments semi-annually in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of each year. The Convertible Notes are unsecured unsubordinated obligations and rank equally with all other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness. The Convertible Notes have an effective interest rate of 6.03% giving effect to the accounting treatment required by ASC Topic 470-20 “Debt with Conversion and Other Options” (“ASC Topic 470-20”). The Convertible Notes had an initial conversion price of $30.86 per share. The conversion rate may be adjusted under certain circumstances, including the payment of cash dividends in excess of the regular quarterly cash dividend in place at the time the Convertible Notes were issued. As of December 31, 2010, the adjusted conversion price is $29.26. Upon conversion of the Convertible Notes, the Company will deliver cash and, in some circumstances, Common Shares, as specified in the indenture relating to the Convertible Notes. In general, the Convertible Notes may only be converted prior to maturity during any calendar quarter beginning after December 31, 2006 if the Company’s Common Shares trade at 130% of the conversion price for at least 20 days within a consecutive 30 day trading period. Prior to December 20, 2011, the Company will not have the right to redeem Convertible Notes, except to preserve its status as a REIT. After December 20, 2011, the Company will have the right to redeem the notes, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, for cash equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes plus any accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the redemption date. The Holders of notes may require the Company to repurchase their notes, in whole or in part, on December 20, 2011, December 15, 2016, and December 15, 2021 for cash equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes to be repurchased plus any accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the repurchase date.

In general, upon a conversion of notes, the Company will deliver cash and, at the Company’s election, its Common Shares, with an aggregate value, which the Company refers to as the “conversion value”, equal to the conversion rate multiplied by the average price of the Company’s Common Shares. The net amount may be paid, at the Company’s option, in cash, its Common Shares or a combination of cash and its Common Shares.

The Convertible Notes if-converted value does not exceed its principal amount as of December 31, 2010 and there are no derivative transactions that were entered into in connection with the issuance of the Convertible Notes.

During 2010, 2009 and 2008 the Company purchased $0.2 million, $57.0 million and $8.0 million in principal amount, respectively, of its convertible debt at an average discount of approximately 19%. The transactions resulted in a gain on debt extinguishment of $7.1 million and $1.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The outstanding Convertible Note principal amount as of December 31, 2010 and 2009 was $49.8 million and $50.0 million, respectively. The outstanding Convertible Note net carrying amount as of December 31, 2010 and 2009 was $48.7 million and $47.9 million, respectively.

Effective January 1, 2009, the Company adopted ASC Topic 470-20 which required it to retrospectively restate and reclassify previously disclosed consolidated financial statements to allocate the proceeds from the issuance of convertible debt between a debt component and an equity component. The resulting discount on the debt component is amortized over the period the convertible debt is expected to be outstanding, which is December 11, 2006 to December 20, 2011, as additional non-cash interest expense. The equity component recorded as additional paid-in capital was $11.3 million, which represented the difference between the proceeds from the issuance of the convertible notes payable and the fair value of the liability at the time of issuance.

9. Convertible Notes Payable, continued

The carrying amount of the equity component included in additional paid-in capital totaled $1.1 million at December 31, 2010 and $2.1 million at December 31, 2009. Interest expense relating to the contractual interest coupon recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income was $1.9 million, $2.5 million and $4.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009, and 2008, respectively, The additional non-cash interest expense recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income was $1.0 million, $1.3 million and $2.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009, and 2008, respectively. Accumulated amortization related to the convertible notes payable was $1.0 million and $0.7 million as of December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively, after giving effect to repurchases.

10. Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements

Derivative Financial Instruments

The FASB’s derivative and hedging guidance establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities. As required by the FASB guidance, the Company records all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of derivatives depends on the intended use of the derivative and the resulting designation. Derivatives used to hedge the exposure to changes in the fair value of an asset, liability, or firm commitment attributable to a particular risk, such as interest rate risk, are considered fair value hedges. Derivatives used to hedge the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows, or other types of forecasted transactions, are considered cash flow hedges.

For derivatives designated as fair value hedges, changes in the fair value of the derivative and the hedged item related to the hedged risk are recognized in earnings. For derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is initially reported in other comprehensive income (outside of earnings) and subsequently reclassified to earnings when the hedged transaction affects earnings, and the ineffective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recognized directly in earnings. The Company assesses the effectiveness of each hedging relationship by comparing the changes in fair value or cash flows of the derivative hedging instrument with the changes in fair value or cash flows of the designated hedged item or transaction. For derivatives not designated as hedges, changes in fair value are recognized in earnings.

As of December 31, 2010, the Company’s derivative financial instruments consisted of seven interest rate LIBOR swaps with an aggregate notional value of $71.5 million, which fix interest at rates from 0.5% to 5.1% and mature between September 2011 and November 2012. The Company also has one derivative financial instrument with a notional value of $28.9 million which caps interest at 6% and matures in April 2013. The fair value of the derivative liability of these instruments, which is included in other liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets, totals $2.8 million at December 31, 2010. The notional value does not represent exposure to credit, interest rate or market risks.

These derivative instruments have been designated as cash flow hedges and hedge the future cash outflows on variable rate mortgage debt. Such instruments are reported at the fair value reflected above. As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, unrealized losses totaling $2.8 and $3.3 million, respectively were reflected in accumulated other comprehensive loss. It is estimated that approximately $2.5 million included in accumulated other comprehensive loss related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense in the 2011 results of operations.

As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, no derivatives were designated as fair value hedges or hedges of net investments in foreign operations. Additionally, the Company does not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes and currently does not have any derivatives that are not designated as hedges. As of December 31, 2010, none of the Company’s hedges were ineffective.

The FASB’s fair value measurements and disclosure guidance requires the valuation of certain of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, based on a three-level fair value hierarchy. Market participant assumptions obtained from sources independent of the Company are observable inputs that are classified within Levels 1 and 2 of the hierarchy, and the Company’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions are unobservable inputs classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy.

The following table presents the Company’s fair value hierarchy for those assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2010:

11. Shareholders’ Equity and Noncontrolling Interests, continued

Noncontrolling Interests, continued

Noncontrolling interests in partially-owned affiliates include third-party interests in Fund I, II and III, and Mervyns I and II and three other entities.

In 2005, the Company issued 250,000 Restricted Common OP Units to Klaff in consideration for an interest in certain management contract rights. During 2010, Klaff converted the 250,000 Restricted Common OP Units into Common Shares.

The Series A Preferred OP Units were issued in 1999 in connection with the acquisition of a property. Through December 31, 2010, 1,204 Series A Preferred OP Units were converted into 160,533 Common OP Units and then into Common Shares. The 188 remaining Series A Preferred OP Units are currently convertible into Common OP Units based on the stated value divided by $7.50. Either the Company or the holders can currently call for the conversion of the Series A Preferred OP Units at the lesser of $7.50 or the market price of the Common Shares as of the conversion date.

12. Related Party Transactions

During February 2010, Klaff converted all 250,000 of its Restricted Common OP Units into 250,000 Common Shares.

In 2008 and 2009 the Company earned asset management, leasing, disposition, development and construction fees for providing services to an existing portfolio of retail properties and/or leasehold interests in which Klaff had an interest. Fees earned by the Company in connection with this portfolio were $0.0 million, $0.4 million and $0.8 million for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008 respectively.

The Company earns fees from two of its investments in unconsolidated partnerships (Note 4). The Company earned property management, construction, legal and leasing fees from the Brandywine Portfolio totaling $0.8 million, $0.7 million and $1.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively. In addition, the Company earned property management and development fees from CityPoint totaling $1.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2008.

Lee Wielansky, the Lead Trustee of the Company, was paid a consulting fee of $0.1 million for each of the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009, and 2008.

13. Tenant Leases

Space in the shopping centers and other retail properties is leased to various tenants under operating leases that usually grant tenants renewal options and generally provide for additional rents based on certain operating expenses as well as tenants’ sales volume.

Minimum future rentals to be received under non-cancelable leases for shopping centers and other retail properties as of December 31, 2010 are summarized as follows:

14. Lease Obligations

The Company leases land at 24 of its shopping centers, which are accounted for as operating leases and generally provide the Company with renewal options. Ground rent expense was $3.7 million, $2.5 million, and $2.3 million (including capitalized ground rent at properties under development of $0.5 million, $0.6 million and $1.1 million) for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The leases terminate at various dates between 2020 and 2078. These leases provide the Company with options to renew for additional terms aggregating from 20 to 60 years. The Company leases space for its White Plains corporate office for a term expiring in 2015. Office rent expense under this lease was $1.5 million, $1.5 million and $1.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

15. Share Incentive Plan

During 2003, the Company adopted the 2003 Share Incentive Plan (the “2003 Plan”). The 2003 Plan authorizes the issuance of options, share appreciation rights, restricted shares (“Restricted Shares”), restricted OP Units (“LTIP Units”) and performance units (collectively, “Awards”) to officers, employees and trustees of the Company and consultants to the Company equal to up to four percent of the total Common Shares of the Company outstanding from time to time on a fully diluted basis. However, no participant may receive more than the equivalent of 1,000,000 Common Shares during the term of the 2003 Plan with respect to Awards. Options are granted by the Compensation Committee (the “Committee”), which currently consists of three non-employee Trustees, and will not have an exercise price less than 100% of the fair market value of the Common Shares and a term of greater than ten years at the grant date. Vesting of options is at the discretion of the Committee. Share appreciation rights provide for the participant to receive, upon exercise, cash and/or Common Shares, at the discretion of the Committee, equal to the excess of the market value of the Common Shares at the exercise date over the market value of the Common Shares at the grant date. The Committee determines the restrictions placed on Awards, including the dividends or distributions thereon and the term of such restrictions. The Committee also determines the award and vesting of performance units and performance shares based on the attainment of specified performance objectives of the Company within a specified performance period. Through December 31, 2010, no share appreciation rights or performance units/shares had been awarded. In connection with the Awards, to the extent that a portion of senior management’s cash bonus is converted into elective Awards, the number of shares issued are at a 25% discount and vest over time.

During 2006, the Company adopted the 2006 Share Incentive Plan (the “2006 Plan”). The 2006 Plan is substantially similar to the 2003 Plan, except that the maximum number of Common Share equivalents that the Company may issue pursuant to the 2006 Plan is 500,000.

On March 1, 2010 and March 10, 2010, the Company issued 265,517 LTIP Units and 1,462 Restricted Shares to officers of the Company and 15,011 Restricted Shares and 1,411 LTIP Units to employees of the Company. Vesting with respect to these awards is recognized ratably over the five annual anniversaries following the issuance date. Vesting on 23% of the awards issued to officers are also generally subject to achieving certain Company performance measures. LTIP Units are similar to Restricted Shares but provide for a quarterly partnership distribution in a like amount as paid to Common OP Units. This distribution is paid on both unvested and vested LTIP Units. The LTIP Units are convertible into Common OP Units and Common Shares upon vesting and a revaluation of the book capital accounts.

These awards were measured at their fair value as if they were vested on the grant date. Fair value was established as the market price of the Company’s Common Shares as of the close of trading on the day preceding the grant date.

The total value of the above Restricted Shares and LTIP Units as of the grant date was $4.7 million. The weighted average fair value for Restricted Shares and LTIP Units granted for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008 were $16.73, $10.31 and $24.51, respectively.

Total long-term incentive compensation expense, including the expense related to the above mentioned plans, was $3.8 million, $3.7 million and $3.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

15. Share Incentive Plan, continued

On May 10, 2010, the Company issued 4,180 unrestricted Common Shares to Trustees of the Company in connection with Trustee fees. The Company also issued 8,000 Restricted Shares to Trustees, which vest over three years with 33% vesting on each of the three anniversaries following the issuance date. The Restricted Shares do not carry voting rights or other rights of Common Shares until vesting and may not be transferred, assigned or pledged until the recipients have a vested non-forfeitable right to such shares. Dividends are not paid currently on unvested Restricted Shares, but are paid cumulatively, from the issuance date through the applicable vesting date of such Restricted Shares vesting. Trustee fee expense of $0.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 has been recognized in the accompanying consolidated financial statements related to this issuance.

During 2009, the Company adopted the Long Term Investment Alignment Program (the “Program”) pursuant to which the Company may award units primarily to senior executives which would entitle them to receive up to 25% of any future Fund III Promote when and if such Promote is ultimately realized. As of December 31, 2010, the Company has awarded units representing 61% of the Program, which were determined to have no value at issuance or as of December 31, 2010. In accordance with ASC Topic 718 “Compensation - Stock Compensation,” compensation relating to these awards will be recorded based on the change in the estimated fair value at each reporting period.

As of December 31, 2010, the Company had 101,283 options outstanding to officers and employees all of which have vested. In addition, 58,000 options have been issued, of which all have vested, to non-employee Trustees. During 2010, 7,000 options were exercised by the Trustees at various exercise prices. As of December 31, 2010, there are 51,000 options outstanding to Trustees of the Company. These options are for ten-year terms from the grant date and vested in three equal annual installments, which began on their respective grant dates.

16. Employee Share Purchase and Deferred Share Plan

As of December 31, 2010, there was $7.4 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested share-based compensation arrangements granted under share incentive plans. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.7 years. The total fair value of Restricted Shares that vested during the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008 was $3.0 million, $5.0 million and $2.7 million, respectively.

The Acadia Realty Trust Employee Share Purchase Plan (the “Purchase Plan”), allows eligible employees of the Company to purchase Common Shares through payroll deductions. The Purchase Plan provides for employees to purchase Common Shares on a quarterly basis at a 15% discount to the closing price of the Company’s Common Shares on either the first day or the last day of the quarter, whichever is lower. A participant may not purchase more the $25,000 in Common Shares per year. Compensation expense will be recognized by the Company to the extent of the above discount to the closing price of the Common Shares with respect to the applicable quarter. During 2010, 2009 and 2008, 6,184, 8,744 and 7,499 Common Shares, respectively, were purchased by employees under the Purchase Plan. Associated compensation expense of $0.02 million was recorded in 2010 and 2009 and $0.03 million was recorded in 2008.

During August of 2004, the Company adopted a Deferral and Distribution Election pursuant to the 1999 Share Incentive Plan and 2003 Share Incentive Plan, whereby the participants elected to defer receipt of 190,487 Common Shares (“Share Units”) that otherwise would have been issued upon the exercise of certain options. In January 2009, these Share Units were converted to 190,487 Common Shares and issued to the recipients and 83,433 of these Common Shares were cancelled to pay for the participants income taxes.

During May of 2006, the Company adopted a Trustee Deferral and Distribution Election (“Trustee Deferral Plan”) whereby the participating Trustees have deferred compensation of $0.06 million, $0.05 million and $0.4 million for 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively. During 2009, certain trustees elected to receive 14,722 Common Shares, which were previously deferred, from the Trustee Deferral Plan.

17. Employee 401(k) Plan

The Company maintains a 401(k) plan for employees under which the Company currently matches 50% of a plan participant’s contribution up to 6% of the employee’s annual salary. A plan participant may contribute up to a maximum of 15% of their compensation but not in excess of $16,500 for the year ended December 31, 2010. The Company contributed $0.2 million, $0.2 million and $0.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

18. Dividends and Distributions Payable

On November 9, 2010, the Board of Trustees declared a cash dividend for the quarter ended December 31, 2010, of $0.18 per Common Share, which was paid on February 1, 2011 to holders of record as of December 31, 2010.

19. Federal Income Taxes

The Company has elected to qualify as a REIT in accordance with Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and intends at all times to qualify as a REIT under the Code. To qualify as a REIT, the Company must meet a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that it currently distribute at least 90% of its annual REIT taxable income to its shareholders. As a REIT, the Company generally will not be subject to corporate Federal income tax, provided that distributions to its shareholders equal at least the amount of its REIT taxable income as defined under the Code. As the Company distributed sufficient taxable income for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, no U.S. Federal income or excise taxes were incurred. If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, it will be subject to Federal income taxes at the regular corporate rates (including any applicable alternative minimum tax) and may not be able to qualify as a REIT for the four subsequent taxable years. Even though the Company qualifies for taxation as a REIT, the Company is subject to certain state and local taxes on its income and property and Federal income and excise taxes on any undistributed taxable income. In addition, taxable income from non-REIT activities managed through the Company’s Taxable REIT Subsidiary (“TRS”) is subject to Federal, state and local income taxes.

20. Earnings Per Common Share

Basic earnings per Common Share is computed using net income attributable to common shareholders and the weighted average Common Shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per Common Share reflect the conversion of obligations and the assumed exercises of securities including the effects of awards issuable under the Company’s Share Incentive Plans. In accordance with GAAP, all Common Shares used to calculate earnings per Common Share have been adjusted to reflect a special dividend paid on January 30, 2009, which resulted in the issuance of approximately 1.3 million additional Common Shares. The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share from continuing operations for the periods indicated:

The weighted average shares used in the computation of dilutive earnings per share include unvested restricted Common Shares (“Restricted Shares”) and restricted OP Units (“LTIP Units”) (Note 15) that are entitled to receive dividend equivalent payments. The effect of the conversion of Common OP Units is not reflected in the above table, as they are exchangeable for Common Shares on a one-for-one basis. The income allocable to such units is allocated on this same basis and reflected as noncontrolling interest in subsidiaries in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. As such, the assumed conversion of these units would have no net impact on the determination of diluted earnings per share. The conversion of the convertible notes payable (Note 9) is not reflected in the table above as such conversion, based on the market price of the Common Shares, would be settled with cash.

The effect of the assumed conversion of 188 Series A Preferred OP Units into 25,067 Series A Preferred OP Units for the year ended December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009 would be dilutive and they are included in the table. The effect of the assumed conversion of 188 Series A Preferred OP Units into 25,067 Common Shares for the year ended December 31, 2008 would be anti-dilutive and they are not included in the table.

22. Commitments and Contingencies

Under various Federal, state and local laws, ordinances and regulations relating to the protection of the environment, a current or previous owner or operator of real estate may be liable for the cost of removal or remediation of certain hazardous or toxic substances disposed, stored, generated, released, manufactured or discharged from, on, at, under, or in a property. As such, the Company may be potentially liable for costs associated with any potential environmental remediation at any of its formerly or currently owned properties.

The Company conducts Phase I environmental reviews with respect to properties it acquires. These reviews include an investigation for the presence of asbestos, underground storage tanks and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). Although such reviews are intended to evaluate the environmental condition of the subject property as well as surrounding properties, there can be no assurance that the review conducted by the Company will be adequate to identify environmental or other problems that may exist. Where a Phase II assessment is so recommended, a Phase II assessment is conducted to further determine the extent of possible environmental contamination. In all instances where a Phase I or II assessment has resulted in specific recommendations for remedial actions, the Company has either taken or scheduled the recommended remedial action. To mitigate unknown risks, the Company has obtained environmental insurance for most of its properties, which covers only unknown environmental risks.

The Company believes that it is in compliance in all material respects with all Federal, state and local ordinances and regulations regarding hazardous or toxic substances. Management is not aware of any environmental liability that it believes would have a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations. Management is unaware of any instances in which the Company would incur significant environmental costs if any or all properties were sold, disposed of or abandoned. However, there can be no assurance that any such non-compliance, liability, claim or expenditure will not arise in the future.

The Company is involved in various matters of litigation arising in the normal course of business. While the Company is unable to predict with certainty the amounts involved, the Company’s management and counsel are of the opinion that, when such litigation is resolved, the Company’s resulting liability, if any, will not have a significant effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, or liquidity.

In September 2008, the Company, certain of its subsidiaries, and other unrelated entities were named as defendants in an adversary proceeding brought by Mervyn’s LLC (“Mervyns”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware. This lawsuit involves five claims alleging fraudulent transfers. The first claim is that, at the time of the sale of Mervyns by Target Corporation to a consortium of investors including Acadia, a transfer of assets was made in an effort to defraud creditors. The Company believes this aspect of the case is without merit. There are four other claims relating to transfers of assets of Mervyns at various times. The Company believes there are substantial defenses to these claims. The matter is in the early stages of discovery and the Company believes the lawsuit will not have a material adverse effect on its results of operations, consolidated financial condition, or liquidity.

During August 2009, the Company terminated the employment of a former Senior Vice President (the “Former Employee”) for engaging in conduct that fell within the definition of “cause” in his severance agreement with the Company. Had the Former Employee not been terminated for “cause,” he would have been eligible to receive approximately $0.9 million under the severance agreement. Because the Company terminated him for “cause,” it did not pay the Former Employee any severance benefits under the agreement. The Former Employee has brought a lawsuit against the Company in New York State Supreme Court, alleging breach of the severance agreement. The suit is in the pre-trial discovery stage. The Company believes it has meritorious defenses to the suit.

The Company has arranged for the provision of three separate letters of credit in connection with certain leases and investments. As of December 31, 2010, there were no outstanding balances under any of the letters of credit. If the letters of credit were fully drawn, the combined maximum amount of exposure would be $9.1 million.

23. Subsequent Events

During January 2011, the Company completed the sale of a Fund II leasehold interest in the Neiman Marcus location at Oakbrook Center, located in Oak Brook, Illinois, for $8.2 million. The sale resulted in a gain of $3.9 million.

During January 2011, the Company paid off a $9.3 million loan secured by one of the Company’s properties for $7.5 million, resulting in a $1.8 million gain.

During February 2011, the Company, through Fund III in a joint venture with an unaffiliated partner, acquired a three property portfolio (the “Portfolio”) for an aggregate purchase price of $51.9 million with $20.6 million of in-place mortgage financing assumed at closing. The Portfolio consists of three street-retail properties, aggregating 61,000 square feet, and is located in South Miami Beach, Florida.

During February 2011, the Company, through Fund III in a joint venture with an unaffiliated partner, acquired a 64,600 square foot single tenant retail property located in Silver Springs, Maryland, for approximately $9.8 million.

The Exhibits contain other terms, provisions and conditions applicable to the Loan. Capitalized terms used in this Agreement shall have the meanings assigned to them in Exhibit “B”. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents, which must be in form, detail and substance satisfactory to Lenders, evidence the agreements of Borrower and Lenders with respect to the Loan. Borrower shall comply with all of the Loan Documents.

                    1.2. Purpose. The proceeds of the Loan shall only be used by Borrower to (i) refinance a portion of the acquisition cost of the Land and the Improvements, (ii) fund other costs related to the Land and the Improvements and (iii) fund closing costs in connection with the Loan.

                    1.3. Commitment to Lend. Borrower agrees to borrow from each Lender, and each Lender severally agrees to make advances of its Pro Rata Share of the Loan proceeds to Borrower in amounts at any one time outstanding not to exceed such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Loan and (except for Administrative Agent with respect to Administrative Agent Advances), on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, including, without limitation, Section 1.4, and Exhibit “C”, Exhibit “C-1” and Exhibit “F” attached to this Agreement. Lender’s commitment to lend shall expire and terminate automatically if the Loan is prepaid in full. The Loan is not revolving. Any amount repaid may not be reborrowed.

                    1.4. Syndication/Special Condition to Future Advances. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Lenders shall have no obligation whatsoever to make the Future Advance unless, within thirty (30) months of the date hereof, one or more Eligible Assignees, acceptable to Administrative Agent in Administrative Agent’s sole and absolute discretion, become Lenders with Commitments which will result in a positive Syndication Increase Amount (as hereinafter defined). The Loan Amount on the date hereof is the Initial Advance Amount. Administrative Agent shall endeavor to locate one or more Eligible Assignees, acceptable to Administrative Agent in its sole and absolute discretion, which are willing to become Lenders hereunder with Commitments of up to an aggregate amount equal to the sum of (x) the Future Advance Amount and (y) $10,000,000. The first $10,000,000 of Commitments taken by new Lenders after the date hereof, if any, shall be applied to reduce the Commitment of BofA to $40,000,000. To the extent that, within thirty (30) months after the date hereof, new Lenders enter into Assignment and Assumption Agreements to accept commitments in the aggregate amount in excess of $10,000,000 (the amount of such excess, the “Syndication Increase Amount”), such occurrence shall constitute a “Successful Syndication”. BofA shall have no liability to Borrower or any other Person if, for any reason whatsoever, Eligible Assignees acceptable to BofA, in its sole and absolute discretion, do not become Lenders within thirty (30) months of the date hereof in such manner as to allow for the Future Advance to be available to Borrower in accordance with the terms hereof. If a Successful Syndication does not, for any reason whatsoever, occur within six (6) months of the date hereof, then Borrower shall, on the date following the six (6) month anniversary of the date hereof, be required to make a mandatory principal payment in the amount (the “Lump Sum Amortization Payment”) sufficient to reduce the Principal Debt to the sum of (x) $40,000,000 plus (y) the Commitment of any Lender other than BofA. It shall be a condition to any Syndication Increase Amount taking effect that (i) Borrower and all Lenders enter into an agreement modifying or supplementing this Agreement, in form and substance acceptable to Administrative Agent, setting forth the


Commitment and Pro Rata Share of each Lender, the Syndication Increase Amount and Future Advance Amount as of such date (subject to adjustment in accordance with the definition of Future Advance Amount) and (ii) Borrower shall execute such Future Advance Notes and replacement initial Advance Notes as Administrative Agent shall reasonably request to effectuate the syndication of Commitments contemplated hereby. If a Successful Syndication does not, for any reason whatsoever, occur within thirty (30) months of the date hereof, then the commitment to lend the Future Advance shall terminate and the Lenders shall have no obligation to make, and Borrower shall not be entitled to receive, any Future Advance.

                    1.5. Intentionally Omitted.

                    1.6. Evidence of Debt. Amounts of the Loan made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender and by Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the Loan made by Lenders to Borrower and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of Borrower hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Indebtedness. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error.

                    1.7. Interest Rates.

                    1.7.1. Interest Rate.

                    (a) The unpaid principal balance of this Loan from day to day outstanding which is not past due, shall bear interest at a fluctuating rate of interest equal to the BBA LIBOR Daily Floating Rate plus the LIBOR Margin. The “BBA LIBOR Daily Floating Rate” shall mean a fluctuating rate of interest equal to the British Bankers Association LIBOR Rate (“BBA LIBOR”), as published by Reuters (or other commercially available source providing quotations of BBA LIBOR as selected by Administrative Agent from time to time) as determined for each Business Day at approximately 11:00 a.m. London time two (2) London Banking Days prior to the date in question, for U.S. Dollar deposits (for delivery on the first day of such interest period) with a one month term, as adjusted from time to time in Administrative Agent’s sole discretion for reserve requirements, deposit insurance assessment rates and other regulatory costs. If such rate is not available at such time for any reason, then the rate will be determined by such alternative method as reasonably selected by Administrative Agent. A “London Banking Day” is a day on which banks in London are open for business and dealing in offshore dollars. Interest shall be computed for the actual number of days which have elapsed, on the basis of a 360-day year.

                    (b) If Administrative Agent determines that no adequate basis exists for determining the BBA LIBOR Daily Floating Rate or that the BBA LIBOR Daily Floating Rate will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to Lenders of funding the Loan, or that any applicable law or regulation or compliance therewith by any Lender prohibits or restricts or makes impossible the charging of interest based on the BBA LIBOR Daily Floating Rate and

2


such Lender so notifies Administrative Agent and Borrower, then until Administrative Agent notifies Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, interest shall accrue and be payable on the unpaid principal balance of this Loan from the date Administrative Agent so notifies Borrower until the Maturity Date of this Loan (whether by acceleration, declaration, extension or otherwise) at a fluctuating rate of interest equal to the Base Rate. Each Lender agrees to designate a different Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for such notice and will not, in the good faith judgment of such Lender, otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender.

                    1.7.2. Past Due Rate. If any amount payable by Borrower under any Loan Document is not paid when due (without regard to any applicable grace periods), such amount shall thereafter bear interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Past Due Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including interest on past due interest) shall be due and payable on demand, at a rate per annum (the “Past Due Rate”) equal to the BBA LIBOR Daily Floating Rate (or, if unavailable pursuant to Section 1.7.1, the Prime Rate) plus 6.2%.

                    1.8. Prepayment. Borrower may prepay the principal balance of this Loan, in full at any time or in part from time to time, without fee, premium or penalty, provided that: (a) Administrative Agent shall have actually received from Borrower prior written notice of (i) Borrower’s intent to prepay, (ii) the amount of principal which will be prepaid (the “Prepaid Principal”), and (iii) the date on which the prepayment will be made; (b) each prepayment shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000 or more (unless the prepayment retires the outstanding balance of this Loan in full); and (c) each prepayment shall be in the amount of 100% of the Prepaid Principal, plus accrued unpaid interest thereon to the date of prepayment, plus any other sums which have become due to Administrative Agent and Lenders under the Loan Documents on or before the date of prepayment but have not been paid. If this Loan is prepaid in full, any commitment of Lenders for further advances shall automatically terminate.

                    1.9. Required Swap Transaction. If at any time when there is not a Swap Transaction approved by Administrative Agent in effect with respect to the entire Principal Debt, the BBA LIBOR Daily Floating Rate equals or exceeds 3.0% per annum, Borrower shall, within five (5) Business Days of notice from Administrative Agent to Borrower of such event, purchase an interest rate cap or swap with respect to the Loan (including the Future Advance Amount, unless Lenders’ commitment with respect thereto has been terminated) for the period remaining through the Maturity Date, or such lesser period as Administrative Agent may approve in its discretion, with a BBA LIBOR Daily Floating Rate maximum rate (in the case of an interest rate cap) or a swapped rate (in the case of an interest rate swap) specified by Administrative Agent. The Swap Counterparty providing the Required Swap Transaction shall either be BofA or have a long-term unsecured debt credit rating from the Rating Agencies of A- (or its equivalent) or better. Borrower shall afford Administrative Agent a right of first opportunity to provide all Required Swap Transactions but shall not be required to purchase such Required Swap Transactions from Administrative Agent or any Lender, provided that any Required Swap Transaction shall be collaterally assigned to Administrative Agent as security for the Loan with an acknowledgment of such assignment by the Swap Counterparty thereunder and evidence of the due authorization, execution and delivery thereof, all in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent. In the event that (a) BofA is not the Swap Counterparty, if

3


the long-term unsecured debt obligations of the Swap Counterparty are downgraded by the Rating Agency below “BBB+” or its equivalent or (b) the Swap Counterparty shall default in any of its obligations under a Required Swap Transaction and such default shall remain uncured for more than five (5) Business Days after Administrative Agent sends notice to Borrower of such default (provided, however, that, if a default by the Counterparty results in an Event of Default, the foregoing five (5) Business Day cure period shall not apply with respect to such other default), Borrower shall, at the request of Administrative Agent, promptly but in all events within five (5) Business Days of Administrative Agent’s request, (x) replace the Required Swap Transaction with an agreement having identical payment terms and maturity and which is otherwise in form and substance substantially similar to the initial Required Swap Transaction and otherwise reasonably acceptable to Lender with a cap provider, the long-term unsecured debt of which is rated at least “A-” (or its equivalent) by each Rating Agency or (y) cause the Swap Counterparty to provide collateral reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent. In the event that Borrower fails to maintain the Required Swap Transaction as provided in this Section 1.9, Administrative Agent may purchase the Required Swap Transactions and the cost incurred by Administrative Agent in connection therewith shall be paid by Borrower to Administrative Agent with interest thereon at the Past Due Rate from the date which is five (5) days after demand until such cost is paid by Borrower to Administrative Agent.

                    1.10. Late Charge. If Borrower shall fail to make any payment due hereunder or under the terms of any Note within fifteen (15) days after the date such payment is due, Borrower shall pay to the applicable Lender or Lenders on demand a late charge equal to 4% of such payment. Such fifteen (15) day period shall not be construed as in any way extending the due date of any payment. The “late charge” is imposed for the purpose of defraying the expenses of a Lender incident to handling such defaulting payment. This charge shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other remedy Lenders may have and is in addition to any fees and charges of any agents or attorneys which Administrative Agent or Lenders may employ upon the occurrence of a Default, whether authorized herein or by Law.

                    1.11. Taxes.

                    (a) Any and all payments by Borrower to or for the account of Administrative Agent or any Lender under any Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, duties, levies, imposts, deductions, assessments, fees, withholdings or similar charges, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding, in the case of Administrative Agent and any Lender, taxes imposed on or measured by its net income, and franchise taxes imposed on it (in lieu of net income taxes), by the jurisdiction (or any political subdivision thereof) under the Laws of which Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, is organized or maintains a lending office (all such non-excluded taxes, duties, levies, imposts, deductions, assessments, fees, withholdings or similar charges, and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”). If Borrower shall be required by any Laws to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under any Loan Document to Administrative Agent or any Lender, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section), Administrative Agent and such Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) Borrower shall make such deductions, (iii) Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority

4


in accordance with applicable Laws, and (iv) within thirty (30) days after the date of such payment, Borrower shall furnish to Administrative Agent (which shall forward the same to such Lender) the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof.

                    (b) In addition, Borrower agrees to pay any and all present or future stamp, court or documentary taxes and any other excise or property taxes or charges or similar levies which arise from any payment made under any Loan Document or from the execution, delivery, performance, enforcement or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, any Loan Document (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”).

                    (c) If Borrower shall be required by the Laws of any jurisdiction outside the United States to deduct any Taxes or Other Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under any Loan Document to Administrative Agent or any Lender, Borrower shall also pay to Administrative Agent (for the account of such Lender) or to such Lender, at the time interest is paid, such additional amount that such Lender specifies is necessary to preserve the after-tax yield (after factoring in United States (federal and state) taxes imposed on or measured by net income) Lender would have received if such deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) had not been made.

                    (d) Borrower agrees to indemnify Administrative Agent and each Lender for the full amount of Taxes and Other Taxes (including any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section) paid by Administrative Agent and such Lender and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, in each case whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Tribunal. Payment under this subsection (d) shall be made within thirty (30) days after the date Lender or Administrative Agent makes a demand therefor.

                    (e) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of Borrower hereunder, the agreements and obligations of Borrower contained in this Section shall survive the termination of the Commitments and the payment in full of all the other Indebtedness.

                    1.12. Payment Schedule and Maturity Date.

                    (a) The principal of the Loan shall be due and payable in monthly installments equal to the amount for the applicable month (by specific calendar months) set forth on Exhibit “D” (each such monthly amount, a “Monthly Principal Amount”), which principal amortization payments shall be applied first to the principal evidenced by the Future Advance Notes, if any, and then to the principal evidenced by the Initial Advance Notes. Such principal amortization payments shall be due and payable on December 1, 2010 and on the first day of each succeeding month thereafter until the Loan shall have been fully paid and satisfied; and accrued unpaid interest on the Loan shall be due and payable on November 1, 2010 and on the first day of each succeeding month thereafter until all principal and accrued interest owing on the Loan shall have been fully paid and satisfied; provided, that on the Maturity Date the entire principal balance of the Loan then unpaid and all accrued interest then unpaid shall be finally due and payable.

5


                    (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 1.12(a), (i) until the Future Advance Determination Date, in lieu of principal amortization, on the first day of each month the maximum Future Advance Amount shall be permanently reduced by the amount of the Monthly Principal Amount and (ii) if Borrower is required to make the Lump Sum Amortization Payment in accordance with Section 1.4, then no monthly principal amortization payments shall be required under Section 1.12(b) unless and until the Future Advance is made, but in any event on the Maturity Date the entire principal balance of the Loan then unpaid and all accrued interest then unpaid shall be finally due and payable. Nothing contained in this Section 1.12(b) shall limit or reduce Borrower’s obligation to make payments in respect of the principal amount of the Loan pursuant to any provision of this Agreement (other than Section 1.12(a)) or any other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, Section 1.4.

                    1.13. Advances and Payments.

                    (a) The Loan shall be advanced as follows: (i) subject to Borrower’s satisfaction of the conditions set forth in this Agreement including, without limitation, Exhibit “C”, Exhibit “C-1” and Exhibit “F” hereto, the Initial Advance in the Initial Advance Amount shall be advanced as a single, lump sum advance and (ii) subject to the occurrence of a Successful Syndication prior to the thirty (30) month anniversary of the date hereof and Borrower’s satisfaction of the other conditions set forth in this Agreement including, without limitation, Exhibit “C”, Exhibit “C-1” and Exhibit “F” hereto, a single Future Advance in the Future Advance Amount shall be advanced as a single, lump sum advance. Following receipt of a Draw Request, Administrative Agent shall promptly provide each Lender with a copy of the Draw Request. Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender telephonically (with confirmation by facsimile) or by facsimile (with confirmation by telephone) not later than 1:00 p.m. Administrative Agent’s Time two (2) Business Days prior to the advance Funding Date for LIBOR Rate Principal advances, and one (1) Business Day prior to the advance Funding Date for all other advances, of its Pro Rata Share of the amount Administrative Agent has determined shall be advanced in connection therewith (“Advance Amount”). In the case of an advance of the Loan, each Lender shall make the funds for its Pro Rata Share of the Advance Amount available to Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. Administrative Agent’s Time on the Funding Date thereof. After Administrative Agent’s receipt of the Advance Amount from Lenders, Administrative Agent shall make proceeds of the Loan in an amount equal to the Advance Amount (or, if less, such portion of the Advance Amount that shall have been paid to Administrative Agent by Lenders in accordance with the terms hereof) available to Borrower on the applicable Funding Date by advancing such funds to Borrower in accordance with the provisions of Exhibit “F”.

                    (b) All payments by Borrower shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by Borrower hereunder shall be made to Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 p.m. (Administrative Agent’s Time) on the date specified herein. Administrative Agent shall distribute to each Lender such funds as such Lender may be entitled to receive hereunder (i) on or before 3:00 p.m. (Administrative Agent’s Time) on the day Administrative Agent receives such funds, if Administrative Agent has received such funds on or before 12:00 p.m. (Administrative Agent’s Time), or (ii) on or before 12:00 p.m. (Administrative Agent’s Time) on the Business Day following the day Administrative Agent receives such funds, if Administrative

6


Agent receives such funds after 12:00 p.m. (Administrative Agent’s Time). If Administrative Agent fails to timely pay any amount to any Lender in accordance with this subsection, Administrative Agent shall pay to such Lender interest at the Federal Funds Rate on such amount, for each day from the day such amount was to be paid until it is paid to such Lender.

                    (c) Except as otherwise provided herein, all payments by Borrower or any Lender shall be made to Administrative Agent at Administrative Agent’s Office not later than the time for such type of payment specified in this Agreement. All payments received after such time shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day. All payments shall be made in immediately available funds in lawful money of the United States of America. Whenever any payment falls due on a day which is not a Business Day, such payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day.

                    (d) Upon satisfaction of any applicable terms and conditions set forth herein, Administrative Agent shall promptly make any amounts received in accordance with the prior subsection available in like funds received as follows: (i) if payable to Borrower, in accordance with Exhibit “F”, except as otherwise specified herein, and (ii) if payable to any Lender, by wire transfer to such Lender at the address specified in the Schedule of Lenders.

                    (e) Unless Borrower or any Lender has notified Administrative Agent, prior to the date any payment is required to be made by it to Administrative Agent, that Borrower or such Lender, as the case may be, will not make such payment, Administrative Agent may assume that Borrower or such Lender, as the case may be, has timely made such payment and may (but shall not be required to do so) in reliance thereon, make available a corresponding amount to the person or entity entitled thereto. If and to the extent that such payment was not in fact made to Administrative Agent in immediately available funds, then:

 

 

 

          (i) if Borrower failed to make such payment, each Lender shall forthwith on demand repay to Administrative Agent the portion of such assumed payment that was made available to such Lender in immediately available funds, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such amount was made available by Administrative Agent to such Lender to the date such amount is repaid to Administrative Agent in immediately available funds at the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect; and

 

 

 

          (ii) if any Lender failed to make such payment, such Lender or, if applicable, Electing Lender or Lenders shall forthwith on demand pay to Administrative Agent the amount thereof in immediately available funds, together with interest thereon for the period from the date such amount was made available by Administrative Agent to Borrower to the date such amount is recovered by Administrative Agent (the “Compensation Period”) at a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable to such amount under the Loan. If such Lender pays such amount to Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Pro Rata Share, included in the applicable Loan advance. If such Lender does not pay such amount forthwith upon Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, Administrative Agent may make a demand therefor upon Borrower, and Borrower shall pay such amount to Administrative Agent, together with interest thereon for the Compensation Period at a rate per annum equal to the rate of

7



 

 

 

interest applicable to such amount under the Loan. Nothing herein shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitment or to prejudice any rights which Administrative Agent or Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.

 

 

 

          A notice of Administrative Agent to any Lender or to Borrower with respect to any amount owing under this subsection shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

                    (f) If any Lender makes available to Administrative Agent funds for the Loan advance to be made by such Lender as provided in the foregoing provisions of this Section, and the funds are not advanced to Borrower or otherwise used to satisfy any Obligations of such Lender hereunder, Administrative Agent shall return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender, without interest.

                    (g) Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for the Loan advance in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for the Loan advance in any particular place or manner.

                    1.14. Administrative Agent Advances.

                    (a) Administrative Agent is authorized, from time to time, in Administrative Agent’s sole discretion to make, authorize or determine advances of the Loan, or otherwise expend funds, on behalf of Lenders (“Administrative Agent Advances”), (i) to pay any costs, fees and expenses as described in Section 6.10 herein, (ii) when the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Exhibit “C” and Exhibit “F” have been satisfied to the extent required by Administrative Agent, and (iii) when Administrative Agent deems necessary or desirable to preserve or protect the Loan collateral or any portion thereof (including those with respect to property taxes, insurance premiums, completion of construction, operation, management, improvements, maintenance, repair, sale and disposition) (A) subject to Section 5.5, after the occurrence of a Default, and (B) subject to Section 5.10, after acquisition of all or a portion of the Loan collateral by foreclosure or otherwise.

                    (b) Administrative Agent Advances shall constitute obligatory advances of Lenders under this Agreement, shall be repayable on demand and secured by the Loan collateral, and if unpaid by Lenders as set forth below shall bear interest at the rate applicable to such amount under the Loan or if no longer applicable, at the Base Rate. Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender in writing of each Administrative Agent Advance. Upon receipt of notice from Administrative Agent of its making of an Administrative Agent Advance, each Lender shall make the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the outstanding principal amount of Administrative Agent Advance available to Administrative Agent, in same day funds, to such account of Administrative Agent as Administrative Agent may designate, (i) on or before 3:00 p.m. (Administrative Agent’s Time) on the day Administrative Agent provides Lenders with notice of the making of such Administrative Agent Advance if Administrative Agent provides such notice on or before 12:00 p.m. (Administrative Agent’s Time), or (ii) on or before 12:00 p.m. on the Business Day immediately following the day Administrative Agent provides Lenders

8


with notice of the making of such advance if Administrative Agent provides notice after 12:00 p.m. (Administrative Agent’s Time).

                    1.15. Defaulting Lender.

                    1.15.1. Notice and Cure of Lender Default; Election Period; Electing Lenders. Administrative Agent shall notify (such notice being referred to as the “Default Notice”) Borrower (for Loan advances) and each non-Defaulting Lender if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender. Each non-Defaulting Lender shall have the right, but in no event or under any circumstance the obligation, to fund such Defaulting Lender Amount, provided that within twenty (20) days after the date of the Default Notice (the “Election Period”), such non-Defaulting Lender or Lenders (each such Lender, an “Electing Lender”) irrevocably commit(s) by notice in writing (an “Election Notice”) to Administrative Agent, the other Lenders and Borrower to fund the Defaulting Lender Amount. If Administrative Agent receives more than one Election Notice within the Election Period, then the commitment to fund the Defaulting Lender Amount shall be apportioned pro rata among the Electing Lenders in the proportion that the amount of each such Electing Lender’s Commitment bears to the total Commitments of all Electing Lenders. If the Defaulting Lender fails to pay the Defaulting Lender Payment Amount within the Election Period, the Electing Lender or Lenders, as applicable, shall be automatically obligated to fund the Defaulting Lender Amount (and Defaulting Lender shall no longer be entitled to fund such Defaulting Lender Amount) within three (3) Business Days following the expiration of the Election Period to reimburse Administrative Agent or make payment to Borrower, as applicable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if Administrative Agent has funded the Defaulting Lender Amount, Administrative Agent shall be entitled to reimbursement for its portion of the Defaulting Lender Payment Amount pursuant to Section 5.11.

                    1.15.2. Removal of Rights; Indemnity. Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to transfer to a Defaulting Lender any payments made by or on behalf of Borrower to Administrative Agent for the Defaulting Lender’s benefit; nor shall a Defaulting Lender be entitled to the sharing of any payments hereunder or under any Note until all Defaulting Lender Payment Amounts are paid in full. Amounts payable to a Defaulting Lender shall be paid by Administrative Agent to reimburse Administrative Agent and any Electing Lender pro rata for all Defaulting Lender Payment Amounts. Solely for the purposes of voting or consenting to matters with respect to the Loan Documents, a Defaulting Lender shall be deemed not to be a “Lender” and such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment shall be deemed to be zero. A Defaulting Lender shall have no right to participate in any discussions among and/or decisions by Lenders hereunder and/or under the other Loan Documents. Further, any Defaulting Lender shall be bound by any amendment to, or waiver of, any provision of, or any action taken or omitted to be taken by Administrative Agent and/or the non-Defaulting Lenders under, any Loan Document which is made subsequent to the Defaulting Lender’s becoming a Defaulting Lender. This Section shall remain effective with respect to a Defaulting Lender until such time as the Defaulting Lender shall no longer be in default of any of its obligations under this Agreement by curing such default by payment of all Defaulting Lender Payment Amounts (i) within the Election Period, or (ii) after the Election Period with the consent of the non-Defaulting Lenders. Such Defaulting Lender nonetheless shall be bound by any amendment to or waiver of any provision of, or any action taken or omitted to be taken by Administrative Agent and/or the non-Defaulting Lenders under any Loan Document which is made subsequent to that Lender’s

9


becoming a Defaulting Lender and prior to such cure or waiver. The operation of this subsection or the subsection above alone shall not be construed to increase or otherwise affect the Commitment of any non-Defaulting Lender, or relieve or excuse the performance by Borrower of their duties and obligations hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents. Furthermore, nothing contained in this Section shall release or in any way limit a Defaulting Lender’s obligations as a Lender hereunder and/or under any other of the Loan Documents. Further, a Defaulting Lender shall indemnify and hold harmless Administrative Agent and each of the non-Defaulting Lenders from any claim, loss, or costs incurred by Administrative Agent and/or the non-Defaulting Lenders as a result of a Defaulting Lender’s failure to comply with the requirements of this Agreement, including, without limitation, any and all additional losses, damages, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees) incurred by Administrative Agent and any non-Defaulting Lender as a result of and/or in connection with (i) a non-Defaulting Lender’s acting as an Electing Lender, (ii) any enforcement action brought by Administrative Agent against a Defaulting Lender, and (iii) any action brought against Administrative Agent and/or Lenders. The indemnification provided above shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

                    1.15.3. Commitment Adjustments. In connection with the adjustment of the amounts of the Loan Commitments of the Defaulting Lender and Electing Lender(s) upon the expiration of the Election Period as aforesaid, Borrower, Administrative Agent and Lenders shall execute such modifications to the Loan Documents as shall, in the reasonable judgment of Administrative Agent, be necessary or desirable in connection with the adjustment of the amounts of Commitments in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Section. For the purpose of voting or consenting to matters with respect to the Loan Documents such modifications shall also reflect the removal of voting rights of the Defaulting Lender and increase in voting rights of Electing Lenders to the extent an Electing Lender has funded the Defaulting Lender Amount. In connection with such adjustments, Defaulting Lenders shall execute and deliver an Assignment and Assumption covering that Lender’s Commitment and otherwise comply with Section 6.5. If a Lender refuses to execute and deliver such Assignment and Assumption or otherwise comply with Section 6.5, such Lender hereby appoints Administrative Agent to do so on such Lender’s behalf. Administrative Agent shall distribute an amended Schedule of Lenders, which shall thereafter be incorporated into this Agreement, to reflect such adjustments. However, all such Defaulting Lender Amounts funded by Administrative Agent or Electing Lenders shall continue to be Defaulting Lender Amounts of the Defaulting Lender pursuant to its obligations under this Agreement.

                    1.15.4. No Election. In the event that no Lender elects to commit to fund the Defaulting Lender Amount within the Election Period, Administrative Agent shall, upon the expiration of the Election Period, so notify Borrower and each Lender.

                    1.16. Several Obligations; No Liability, No Release. Notwithstanding that certain of the Loan Documents now or hereafter may have been or will be executed only by or in favor of Administrative Agent in its capacity as such, and not by or in favor of Lenders, any and all obligations on the part of Administrative Agent (if any) to make any advances of the Loan or reimbursements for other Payment Amounts shall constitute the several (and not joint) obligations of the respective Lenders on a ratable basis, according to their respective Pro Rata Shares. Except as may be specifically provided in this Agreement, no Lender shall have any

10


liability for the acts of any other Lender. No Lender shall be responsible to Borrower or any other person for any failure by any other Lender to fulfill its obligations to make advances of the Loan or reimbursements for other Payment Amounts, nor to take any other action on its behalf hereunder or in connection with the financing contemplated herein. The failure of any Lender to pay to Administrative Agent its Pro Rata Share of a Payment Amount shall not relieve any other Lender of any obligation hereunder to pay to Administrative Agent its Pro Rata Share of such Payment Amounts as and when required herein, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so fund its Pro Rata Share of the Payment Amount. In furtherance of the foregoing, Lenders shall comply with their obligation to pay Administrative Agent their Pro Rata Share of such Payment Amounts regardless of (i) the occurrence of any Default hereunder or under any Loan Document; (ii) any failure of consideration, absence of consideration, misrepresentation, fraud, or any other event, failure, deficiency, breach or irregularity of any nature whatsoever in the Loan Documents; or (iii) any bankruptcy, insolvency or other like event with regard to any Borrower or Guarantor. The obligation of Lenders to pay to such Payment Amounts are in all regards independent of any claims between Administrative Agent and any Lender.

ARTICLE 2
ADDITIONAL COVENANTS AND AGREEMENTS

                    2.1. Bank Accounts. Borrower shall maintain all security deposits collected from tenants or others with respect to the Property in one or more accounts with Administrative Agent in accordance with all applicable legal requirements. Borrower shall maintain all bank accounts used by Borrower in connection with the operation of the Property with Administrative Agent.

                    2.2. Intentionally Omitted.

                    2.3. Contracts. Without Administrative Agent’s prior written approval as to parties, terms, and all other matters, Borrower shall not (a) enter into any Material Contract, (b) enter into any management, leasing, maintenance or other contract pertaining to the Property not described in clause (a) that is not unconditionally terminable by Borrower or any successor owner without penalty or payment on not more than thirty (30) days’ notice to the other party thereunder, or (c) modify, amend, or terminate any such contracts. All such contracts shall provide that all rights and liens of the applicable contractor, architect, engineer, supplier, surveyor or other party and any right to remove removable Improvements are subordinate to Lender’s rights and liens, shall require all subcontracts and purchase orders to contain a provision subordinating the subcontractors’ and mechanics’ and materialmen’s liens and any right to remove removable Improvements to Lender’s rights and liens. Borrower shall not default under any contract, Borrower shall not permit any contract to terminate by reason of any failure of Borrower to perform thereunder, and Borrower shall promptly notify Administrative Agent of any default thereunder. Borrower will deliver to Administrative Agent, upon request of Administrative Agent, the names and addresses of all persons or entities with whom each contractor has contracted or intends to contract for the construction of the Improvements or for the furnishing of labor or materials therefor.

                    2.4. Assignment of Contracts. As additional security for the Obligations, Borrower hereby transfers and assigns to Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of Administrative Agent and Lenders and grants a security interest in all of Borrower’s right, title and interest, but not its liability, in, under, and to all construction, architectural and design contracts, and agrees that all of the same are covered by the security agreement provisions of the Mortgage. Borrower agrees to deliver to Administrative Agent from time to time upon Administrative Agent’s request such consents to the foregoing assignment from parties contracting with Borrower as Administrative Agent may require. Neither this assignment nor any action by Administrative Agent or Lenders shall constitute an assumption by Administrative Agent or Lenders of any obligation under any contract, Borrower hereby agrees to perform all of its obligations under any contract, and Borrower shall continue to be liable for all obligations of Borrower with respect thereto. Administrative Agent shall have the right at any time (but shall have no obligation) to take in its name or in the name of Borrower such action as Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cure any default under any contract or to protect the rights of Borrower, Administrative Agent or Lenders with respect thereto. Borrower irrevocably constitutes and appoints Administrative Agent as Borrower’s attorney-in-fact, which power of attorney is coupled with an interest and irrevocable, to enforce in Borrower’s name or in Administrative Agent’s and Lender’s name all rights of Borrower under any contract. Administrative Agent shall incur no liability if any action so taken by it or on its behalf shall prove to be inadequate or invalid. Borrower indemnifies and holds Administrative Agent and Lenders harmless against and from any loss, cost, liability or expense (including, but not limited to, consultants’ fees and expenses and attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred in connection with Borrower’s failure to perform such contracts or any such action taken by Administrative Agent or Lenders. Borrower represents and warrants to Administrative Agent and Lenders that the copy of any contract furnished or to be furnished to Administrative Agent is and shall be a true and complete copy thereof, that there have been no modifications thereof which are not fully set forth in the copies delivered, and that Borrower’s interest therein is not subject to any claim, setoff, or encumbrance.

                    2.5. Financial Covenants.

                    (a) Loan to Value Ratio. The Property shall have a “Loan to Value Ratio” of not greater than the Maximum Loan to Value, which Loan to Value Ratio shall be calculated, and defined, as follows: the sum of (x) the Principal Debt, (y) prior to the Future Advance Determination Date, the Future Advance Amount and (z) accrued but unpaid interest on the Loan, all as of the date of the determination of the ratio shall be divided by the appraised “As-Is” value of the Property. The appraised “As-Is” value of the Property shall be based upon the most recent appraisal performed pursuant to Section 2.13, as reviewed, adjusted and approved by Administrative Agent. The Loan to Value Ratio requirement shall be tested no more often than once per calendar year, unless one or more events have occurred which have, alone or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect. In the event the Loan to Value Ratio covenant is not met, Administrative Agent shall notify Borrower of such condition and Borrower may satisfy the Loan to Value Ratio covenant by, within thirty (30) days of such notice, either (A) making a principal curtailment on the Loan (which shall not be credited towards future principal amortization required under the Loan Documents) in an amount sufficient to bring this Loan to Value Ratio into compliance and/or (B) provide additional collateral acceptable to Administrative Agent, which shall have value (as determined by Administrative Agent) which

12


when added to the Property value is sufficient to satisfy the Loan to Value Ratio covenant. If Borrower fails to satisfy the Loan to Value Ratio covenant within such thirty (30) day period, such condition shall constitute an immediate Default.

                    (b) Debt Service Coverage Ratio. Borrower shall at all times have a Debt Service Coverage Ratio of at least the Minimum DSCR. In the event the Debt Service Coverage Ratio covenant is not met, Administrative Agent shall notify Borrower of such condition and Borrower may satisfy the Debt Service Coverage Ratio covenant by, within thirty (30) days of such notice, either (A) making a principal curtailment on the Loan (which shall not be credited towards future principal amortization required under the Loan Documents) in an amount sufficient to bring this Debt Service Coverage Ratio into compliance and/or (B) provide additional collateral acceptable to Administrative Agent, which shall have value (as determined by Administrative Agent) which would, assuming such collateral were liquidated and applied to reduce the outstanding principal amount of the Loan, be sufficient to satisfy the Debt Service Coverage Ratio covenant. If Borrower fails to satisfy the Debt Service Coverage Ratio covenant within such thirty (30) day period, such condition shall constitute an immediate Default.

                    2.6. Limitation on Debt. Borrower will not incur, create, assume directly or indirectly, or suffer to exist any Debt or encumber any of its assets nor form or own any subsidiaries, nor acquire or hold a direct or indirect equity investments in any other Person without in each such instance the prior written consent of Administrative Agent, except for:

 

 

 

          (a) Debt incurred pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents;

 

 

 

          (b) Debt of Borrower under a Swap Contract;

 

 

 

          (c) Debt constituting a trade payable which is payable in the ordinary course of business and is not past due;

 

 

 

          (d) obligations to pay brokerage commissions in connection with executed leases so long as such commissions are at market rates; and

 

 

 

          (e) amounts payable under leases in connection with build-out allowances or tenant improvement reimbursements (but only to the extent approved by Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion to the extent Administrative Agent’s consent is required hereunder).

                    2.7. Inspection. Administrative Agent and its agents may enter upon the Property to inspect the Property at any reasonable time, unless Administrative Agent deems such inspection is of an emergency nature, in which event Borrower shall provide Administrative Agent with immediate access to the Property. Borrower will furnish to Administrative Agent and its agents for inspection and copying, all books and records, and other documents and information that Administrative Agent may request from time to time.

                    2.8. Notice to Lenders. Borrower shall promptly within ten (10) days after the occurrence of any of the following events, notify each Lender in writing thereof, specifying in each case the action Borrower has taken or will take with respect thereto: (a) any violation of any Law or governmental requirement; (b) any litigation, arbitration or governmental

13


investigation or proceeding instituted or threatened against Borrower or any Guarantor or the Property, and any material development therein; (c) any actual or threatened condemnation of any portion of the Property, any negotiations with respect to any such taking, or any loss of or substantial damage to the Property; (d) any labor controversy pending or threatened against Borrower or any contractor, and any material development in any labor controversy; (e) any notice received by Borrower with respect to the cancellation, alteration or non-renewal of any insurance coverage maintained with respect to the Property; (f) Borrower receiving notice or otherwise having knowledge of any lien in excess of $50,000 filed against the Property or any stop notice served on Borrower in connection with construction of any alterations or renovations of the Improvements; or (g) any required permit, license, certificate or approval with respect to the Property lapses or ceases to be in full force and effect.

                    2.9. Financial Statements. Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent with sufficient copies for each Lender the Financial Statements and other statements and information at the times and for the periods described in (a) Exhibit “B” and (b) any other Loan Document, and Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent with sufficient copies for each Lender from time to time such additional financial statements and information as Administrative Agent may at any time request. Borrower will make all of its books, records and accounts available to Administrative Agent and its representatives at the Property upon request and will permit them to review and copy the same. Borrower shall promptly notify Administrative Agent of any event or condition that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect in the financial condition of Borrower. Administrative Agent shall provide a copy of such Financial Statements to each Lender upon receipt.

                    2.10. Other Information. Borrower shall furnish to Administrative Agent from time to time upon Administrative Agent’s request budgets of Borrower and revisions thereof showing the estimated costs and expenses to be incurred in connection with the completion of construction of the Improvements; (v) current or updated detailed Project schedules or construction schedules; and (vi) such other information relating to Borrower, Guarantor, the Improvements, the Property, or any indemnitor or other person or party connected with Borrower, the Loan or any security for the Loan.

                    2.11. Administrative Agent Fee. Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent, for Administrative Agent’s own account, an administrative agent fee of $1,667 per month (or partial month, without apportioning, in the event the Initial Advance is made or the Loan repaid, on a day other than the last day of a month) payable monthly in arrears commencing on November 1, 2010 and on the first day of each month hereafter.

                    2.12. Unused Fee. Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent, for the pro rata account of Lenders, an unused fee (the “Unused Fee”) computed daily on the Future Advance Amount at a rate per annum equal to 0.40%, calculated on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days elapsed. Effective on the date which is the first to occur of (x) the date on which Lenders advance the Future Advance to Borrower or (y) the date on which the Commitment to lend the Future Advance terminates in accordance with Section 1.4, no further Unused Fee shall accrue. The accrued Unused Fee shall be due and payable in arrears on the first day of each January, April, July and October of each year, commencing on January 1, 2011, and upon the Maturity Date.

14


                    2.13. Appraisal. Administrative Agent may obtain from time to time, an appraisal of all or any part of the Property prepared in accordance with written instructions from Administrative Agent by a third-party appraiser engaged directly by Administrative Agent. Each such appraiser and appraisal shall be satisfactory to Administrative Agent (including satisfaction of applicable regulatory requirements). The cost of any such appraisal shall be borne by Borrower if such appraisal is the first appraisal in any calendar year and in all events if Administrative Agent obtains such appraisal after the occurrence of a Default, and such cost is due and payable by Borrower on demand and shall be secured by the Loan Documents. Administrative Agent shall provide a copy of such appraisal to each Lender upon receipt. Provided no Default exists and Borrower has paid the cost of such appraisal as aforesaid, Administrative Agent shall provide a copy of such appraisal to Borrower upon request.

                    2.14. Payment of Withholding Taxes. Borrower shall not use, or permit the property manager of the Property to use, any portion of the proceeds of any Loan advance to pay the wages of employees unless a portion of the proceeds or other funds are also used to make timely payment to or deposit with (a) the United States of all amounts of tax required to be deducted and withheld with respect to such wages under the Code, and (b) any state and/or local Tribunal or agency having jurisdiction of all amounts of tax required to be deducted and withheld with respect to such wages under any applicable state and/or local Laws.

                    2.15. ERISA and Prohibited Transaction Taxes. As of the date hereof and throughout the term of this Loan Agreement, (a) Borrower is not and will not be (i) an “employee benefit plan”, as defined in Section 3(3) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”); or (ii) a “plan” within the meaning of Section 4975(e) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended from time to time (the “Code”); (b) the assets of Borrower do not and will not constitute “plan assets” within the meaning of the United States Department of Labor Regulations set forth in 29 C.F.R. §2510.3-101; (c) Borrower is not and will not be a “governmental plan” within the meaning of Section 3(32) of ERISA; (d) transactions by or with Borrower are not and will not be subject to state statutes applicable to Borrower regulating investments of fiduciaries with respect to governmental plans; and (e) Borrower shall not engage in any transaction which would cause any obligation, or action taken or to be taken, hereunder (or the exercise by Administrative Agent of any of Lender’s rights under this Agreement, any Note or the other Loan Documents) to be a non-exempt (under a statutory or administrative class exemption) prohibited transaction under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code. Borrower further agrees to deliver to Administrative Agent such certifications or other evidence of compliance with the provisions of this Section 2.15 as Administrative Agent may from time to time request.

The occurrence of any one of the following shall be a default under this Agreement (“Default”): (a) any of the Indebtedness is not paid when due, whether on the scheduled due date or upon acceleration, maturity or otherwise and such default shall have continued for a period of ten (10) days; (b) any covenant, agreement, condition, representation or warranty in this Agreement (other than covenants to pay the Indebtedness and other than Defaults expressly listed in this Section) is not fully and timely performed, observed or kept and except with respect to provisions which are specified to be immediate Defaults such default shall have continued for a period of thirty (30) days after notice thereof shall have been

16


given to Borrower by Administrative Agent (or such other grace period as may be specified elsewhere in this Agreement with respect to specific provisions), provided, however, if such default is not susceptible of being cured within such thirty (30) day period and Borrower has commenced such cure within such thirty (30) day period and is diligently pursuing such cure to Administrative Agent’s satisfaction, such thirty (30) day cure period shall be extended, but in no event shall such cure period exceed sixty (60) days, or, in the case of such other documents, such shorter grace period, if any, as may be provided for therein; (c) the occurrence of a Default under any other Loan Document (taking into account any applicable notice and cure period set forth in such Loan Document); (d) any required permit, license, certificate or approval with respect to the Property lapses or ceases to be in full force and effect and Borrower fails to have such required permit, license, certificate or approval renewed or reinstated within thirty (30) days; (e) Borrower, Administrative Agent or any Lender is enjoined or prohibited from performing any of its respective obligations under any of the Loan Documents; (f) the owner of the Property enters into any lease of part or all of the Property which does not comply with the Loan Documents; (g) a lien for the performance of work or the supply of materials which is established against the Property remains unsatisfied or unbonded for a period of twenty (20) days after Borrower’s receipt of notice or otherwise obtaining knowledge of the date of filing or service; (h) the entry of a judgment against Borrower or any Guarantor for an amount in excess of $500,000 and Borrower shall not discharge the same or cause it to be discharged within sixty (60) days from the entry thereof, or shall not appeal therefrom or from the order, decree or process upon which or pursuant to which said judgment was granted, based or entered, and secure a stay of execution or bond over such judgment by a commercially acceptable bonding company pending such appeal; (i) the issuance of any attachment, sequestration, or similar writ levied upon any of Borrower’s or Guarantor’s property which is not discharged within a period of ten (10) days; (j) Administrative Agent determines that an event or condition that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect has occurred in the financial condition of Borrower or any Guarantor or in the condition of the Property; (k) the death, incompetency, dissolution or insolvency of Borrower or any Guarantor; (l) a Default as specified in Section 6.26; and (m) a default occurs under any other Loan Document which is not cured within any applicable notice and cure period provided therein.

                    4.2. Remedies. Upon a Default, Administrative Agent may with the consent of, and shall at the direction of the Required Lenders, without notice, exercise any and all rights and remedies afforded by this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, Law, equity or otherwise, including (a) declaring any and all Indebtedness immediately due and payable; (b) reducing any claim to judgment; or (c) obtaining appointment of a receiver (to which Borrower hereby consents) and/or judicial or nonjudicial foreclosure under the Mortgage; provided, however, that upon a Default, Administrative Agent at its election may (but shall not be obligated to) without the consent of and shall at the direction of the Required Lenders, without notice, do any one or more of the following: set-off and apply, to the extent thereof and to the maximum extent permitted by Law, any and all deposits, funds, or assets at any time held and any and all other indebtedness at any time owing by Administrative Agent or any Lender to or for the credit or account of Borrower against any Indebtedness.

                    Borrower hereby appoints Administrative Agent as Borrower’s attorney-in-fact, which power of attorney is irrevocable and coupled with an interest, with full power of substitution if Administrative Agent so elects, to do any of the following in Borrower’s name

17


upon the occurrence of a Default: (i) endorse the name of Borrower on any checks or drafts representing proceeds of any insurance policies, or other checks or instruments payable to Borrower with respect to the Property; (ii) prosecute or defend any action or proceeding incident to the Property, (iii) pay, settle, or compromise all bills and claims so as to clear title to the Property; and (iv) take over and use all or any part of the labor, materials, supplies and equipment contracted for, owned by, or under the control of Borrower, whether or not previously incorporated into the Improvements. Any amounts expended by Administrative Agent itself or on behalf of Lenders in connection with the exercise of its remedies herein shall be deemed to have been advanced to Borrower hereunder as a demand obligation owing by Borrower to Administrative Agent or Lenders as applicable and shall constitute a portion of the Indebtedness, regardless of whether such amounts exceed any limits for Indebtedness otherwise set forth herein. Neither Administrative Agent nor Lenders shall have any liability to Borrower for the sufficiency or adequacy of any such actions taken by Administrative Agent.

                    No delay or omission of Administrative Agent or Lenders to exercise any right, power or remedy accruing upon the happening of a Default shall impair any such right, power or remedy or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such Default or any acquiescence therein. No delay or omission on the part of Administrative Agent or Lenders to exercise any option for acceleration of the maturity of the Indebtedness, or for foreclosure of the Mortgage following any Default as aforesaid, or any other option granted to Administrative Agent and Lenders hereunder in any one or more instances, or the acceptances by Administrative Agent or Lenders of any partial payment on account of the Indebtedness, shall constitute a waiver of any such Default, and each such option shall remain continuously in full force and effect. No remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to Administrative Agent and/or Lenders is intended to be exclusive of any other remedies provided for in any Note or any of the other Loan Documents, and each and every such remedy shall be cumulative, and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder, or under any Note or any of the other Loan Documents, or now or hereafter existing at Law or in equity or by statute. Every right, power and remedy given to Administrative Agent and Lenders by this Agreement, any Note or any of the other Loan Documents shall be concurrent, and may be pursued separately, successively or together against Borrower, or the Property or any part thereof, or any personal property granted as security under the Loan Documents, and every right, power and remedy given by this Agreement, any Note or any of the other Loan Documents may be exercised from time to time as often as may be deemed expedient by the Required Lenders.

                    Regardless of how a Lender may treat payments received from the exercise of remedies under the Loan Documents for the purpose of its own accounting, for the purpose of computing the Indebtedness, payments shall be applied as elected by Lenders. No application of payments will cure any event of Default, or prevent acceleration, or continued acceleration, of amounts payable under the Loan Documents, or prevent the exercise, or continued exercise, of rights or remedies of Administrative Agent and Lenders hereunder or thereunder or at Law or in equity.

18


ARTICLE 5
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

                    5.1. Appointment and Authorization of Administrative Agent.

                    (a) Each Lender hereby irrevocably (subject to Section 5.9) appoints, designates and authorizes Administrative Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other Loan Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to it by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere herein or in any other Loan Document, Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, nor shall Administrative Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against Administrative Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” herein and in the other Loan Documents with reference to Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.

                    (b) No individual Lender or group of Lenders shall have any right to amend or waive, or consent to the departure of any party from any provision of any Loan Document, or secure or enforce the obligations of Borrower or any other party pursuant to the Loan Documents, or otherwise. All such rights, on behalf of Administrative Agent or any Lender or Lenders, shall be held and exercised solely by and at the option of Administrative Agent for the pro rata benefit of Lenders. Such rights, however, are subject to the rights of a Lender or Lenders, as expressly set forth in this Agreement, to approve matters or direct Administrative Agent to take or refrain from taking action as set forth in this Agreement. Except as expressly otherwise provided in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, Administrative Agent shall have and may use its sole discretion with respect to exercising or refraining from exercising any discretionary rights, or taking or refraining from taking any actions which Administrative Agent is expressly entitled to exercise or take under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, (i) the determination if and to what extent matters or items subject to Administrative Agent’s satisfaction are acceptable or otherwise within its discretion, (ii) the making of Administrative Agent Advances, and (iii) the exercise of remedies pursuant to, but subject to, Article 4 or pursuant to any other Loan Document and any action so taken or not taken shall be deemed consented to by Lenders.

                    (c) In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to Borrower or Guarantor, no individual Lender or group of Lenders shall have the right, and Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of the Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on Borrower) shall be exclusively entitled and empowered on behalf of itself and Lenders, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

19



 

 

 

          (i) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loan and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of Lenders and Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of Lenders and Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due Lenders and Administrative Agent under Section 6.10 and Exhibit “K” allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

 

 

 

          (ii) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to Administrative Agent and, in the event that Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to Lenders, to pay to Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due Administrative Agent under Section 6.10.

                    Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of Lenders except as approved by Required Lenders or to authorize Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claims of Lenders except as approved by Required Lenders in any such proceeding.

                    5.2. Delegation of Duties. Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel and other consultant experts concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects with reasonable care.

                    5.3. Liability of Administrative Agent. No Agent-Related Persons shall (i) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct), or (ii) be responsible in any manner to any of Lenders for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by Borrower or any subsidiary or Affiliate of Borrower, or any officer thereof, contained herein or in any other Loan Document, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for any failure of Borrower or any other party to any Loan Document to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. No Agent-Related Person shall be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of Borrower, Guarantor or any of their Affiliates.

20


                    5.4. Reliance by Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex or telephone message, statement or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper person or persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to any party to the Loan Documents), independent accountants and other experts selected by Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders or all Lenders if required hereunder as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance with a request or consent of the Required Lenders or such greater number of Lenders as may be expressly required hereby in any instance, and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all Lenders. In the absence of written instructions from the Required Lenders or such greater number of Lenders, as expressly required hereunder, Administrative Agent may take or not take any action, at its discretion, unless this Agreement specifically requires the consent of the Required Lenders or such greater number of Lenders.

                    5.5. Notice of Default. Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default, unless Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default that Administrative Agent determines will have a Material Adverse Effect. Administrative Agent will notify Lenders of its receipt of any such notice. Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default as may be requested by the Required Lenders in accordance with Article 4; provided, however, that unless and until Administrative Agent has received any such request, Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default as it shall deem advisable or in the best interest of Lenders.

                    5.6. Credit Decision; Disclosure of Information by Administrative Agent.

                    (a) Each Lender acknowledges that none of Agent-Related Persons has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by Administrative Agent hereafter taken, including any consent to and acceptance of any assignment or review of the affairs of Borrower and Guarantor, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent-Related Person to any Lenders as to any matter, including whether Agent-Related Persons have disclosed material information in their possession. Each Lender represents to Administrative Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of Borrower and Guarantor, and all applicable bank or other regulatory Laws relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to Borrower and Guarantor hereunder. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and

21


based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of Borrower and Guarantor.

                   (b) Administrative Agent upon its receipt shall provide each Lender such notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to Lenders by Administrative Agent herein. To the extent not already available to a Lender, Administrative Agent shall also provide Lender and/or make available for Lender’s inspection during reasonable business hours and at Lender’s expense, upon Lender’s written request therefor: (i) copies of the Loan Documents; (ii) such information as is then in Administrative Agent’s possession in respect of the current status of principal and interest payments and accruals in respect of the Loan; (iii) copies of all current financial statements in respect of Borrower, any Guarantor or other person liable for payment or performance by Borrower of any obligations under the Loan Documents, then in Administrative Agent’s possession with respect to the Loan; and (iv) other current factual information then in Administrative Agent’s possession with respect to the Loan and bearing on the continuing creditworthiness of Borrower or any Guarantor, or any of their respective Affiliates; provided that nothing contained in this Section shall impose any liability upon Administrative Agent for its failure to provide a Lender any of such Loan Documents, information, or financial statements, unless such failure constitutes willful misconduct or gross negligence on Administrative Agent’s part; and provided further that Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to provide any Lender with any information in violation of Law or any contractual restrictions on the disclosure thereof (provided such contractual restrictions shall not apply to distributing to a Lender factual and financial information expressly required to be provided herein). Except as set forth above, Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lenders with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of Borrower or Guarantor or any of their respective Affiliates which may come into the possession of any of Agent-Related Persons.

                    5.7. Indemnification of Administrative Agent. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, Lenders shall indemnify upon demand each Agent-Related Person (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of Borrower and without limiting the obligation of Borrower to do so), pro rata, and hold harmless each Agent-Related Person from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by it; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for the payment to any Agent-Related Person of any portion of such Indemnified Liabilities to the extent determined in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Agent-Related Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct; provided, however, that no action taken in accordance with the directions of the Required Lenders shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section. Without limitation of the foregoing, to the extent that Administrative Agent is not reimbursed by or on behalf of Borrower, each Lender shall reimburse Administrative Agent upon demand for its ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including attorney fees) incurred by Administrative Agent as described in Section 6.10. The undertaking in this Section shall survive the payment of all Indebtedness hereunder and the resignation or replacement of Administrative Agent.

22


                    5.8. Administrative Agent in Individual Capacity. Administrative Agent, in its individual capacity, and its Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire equity interests in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting or other business with any party to the Loan Documents and their respective Affiliates as though Administrative Agent were not Administrative Agent hereunder and without notice to or consent of Lenders. Lenders acknowledge that Borrower and Bank of America, N.A. or its Affiliate have entered or may enter into Swap Transactions. A portion of the Loan may be funded to honor Borrower’s payment obligations under the terms of such Swap Transactions, and Lenders shall have no right to share in any portion of such payments. Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, Bank of America, N.A. or its Affiliates may receive information regarding any party to the Loan Documents, or their respective Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such parties or such parties’ Affiliates) and acknowledge that Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them. With respect to its Pro Rata Share of the Loan, Bank of America, N.A. shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lenders and may exercise such rights and powers as though it were not Administrative Agent or party to Swap Transactions, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” include Bank of America, N.A. in its individual capacity.

                    5.9. Successor Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent may, and at the request of the Required Lenders as a result of Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct in performing its duties under this Agreement shall, resign as Administrative Agent upon thirty (30) days’ notice to Lenders. If Administrative Agent resigns under this Agreement, the Required Lenders shall appoint from among Lenders a successor administrative agent for Lenders, which successor administrative agent shall be consented to by Borrower at all times other than during the existence of a Default (which consent of Borrower shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If no successor administrative agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent may appoint, after consulting with Lenders and Borrower, a successor administrative agent from among Lenders. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor administrative agent hereunder, such successor administrative agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent and the term “Administrative Agent” shall mean such successor administrative agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent’s appointment, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article and other applicable Sections of this Agreement shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement. If no successor administrative agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent by the date which is thirty (30) days following a retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and Lenders shall perform all of the duties of Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above.

                    5.10. Releases; Acquisition and Transfers of Collateral.

                    (a) Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize Administrative Agent to transfer or release any lien on, or after foreclosure or other acquisition of title by Administrative Agent on

23


behalf of Lenders to transfer or sell, any Loan collateral (i) upon the termination of the Commitments and payment and satisfaction in full of all Indebtedness, (ii) constituting a release, transfer or sale of a lien or Loan collateral if Borrower will certify to Administrative Agent that the release, transfer or sale is permitted under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (and Administrative Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate, without further inquiry); or (iv) after foreclosure or other acquisition of title (1) for a purchase price of at least 90% of the value indicated in the most recent appraisal of the collateral obtained by Administrative Agent made in accordance with regulations governing Administrative Agent, less any reduction indicated in the appraisal estimated by experts in such areas; or (2) if approved by the Required Lenders.

                    (b) If all or any portion of the Loan collateral is acquired by foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure, Administrative Agent shall take title to the collateral in its name or by an Affiliate of Administrative Agent, but for the benefit of all Lenders in their Pro Rata Shares on the date of the foreclosure sale or recordation of the deed in lieu of foreclosure (the “Acquisition Date”). Administrative Agent and all Lenders hereby expressly waive and relinquish any right of partition with respect to any collateral so acquired. After any collateral is acquired, Administrative Agent shall appoint and retain one or more persons (individually and collectively, “Property Manager”) experienced in the management, leasing, sale and/or dispositions of similar properties.

                    After consulting with the Property Manager, Administrative Agent shall prepare a written plan for completion of construction (if required), operation, management, improvement, maintenance, repair, sale and disposition of the Loan collateral and a budget for the aforesaid, which may include a reasonable management fee payable to Administrative Agent (the “Business Plan”). Administrative Agent will deliver the Business Plan not later than the sixtieth (60th) day after the Acquisition Date to each Lender with a written request for approval of the Business Plan. If the Business Plan is approved by the Required Lenders, Administrative Agent and the Property Manager shall adhere to the Business Plan until a different Business Plan is approved by the Required Lenders. Administrative Agent may propose an amendment to the Business Plan as it deems appropriate, which shall also be subject to Required Lender approval. If the Business Plan (as may be amended) proposed by Administrative Agent is not approved by the Required Lenders, (or if sixty (60) days have elapsed following the Acquisition Date without a Business Plan being proposed by Administrative Agent), any Lender may propose an alternative Business Plan, which Administrative Agent shall submit to all Lenders for their approval. If an alternative Business Plan is approved by the Required Lenders, Administrative Agent may appoint one of the approving Lenders to implement the alternative Business Plan. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, unless in violation of an approved Business Plan or otherwise in an emergency situation, Administrative Agent shall, subject to subsection (a) of this Section, have the right but not the obligation to take any action in connection with the Loan collateral (including those with respect to property taxes, insurance premiums, completion of construction, operation, management, improvement, maintenance, repair, sale and disposition), or any portion thereof.

                    (c) Upon request by Administrative Agent or Borrower at any time, Lenders will confirm in writing Administrative Agent’s authority to sell, transfer or release any such liens of particular types or items of Loan collateral pursuant to this Section; provided, however, that

24


(i) Administrative Agent shall not be required to execute any document necessary to evidence such release, transfer or sale on terms that, in Administrative Agent’s opinion, would expose Administrative Agent to liability or create any obligation or entail any consequence other than the transfer, release or sale without recourse, representation or warranty, and (ii) such transfer, release or sale shall not in any manner discharge, affect or impair the obligations of Borrower other than those expressly being released.

                    (d) If only two (2) Lenders exist at the time Administrative Agent receives a purchase offer for Loan collateral for which one of Lenders does not consent within ten (10) Business Days after notification from Administrative Agent, the consenting Lender may offer (“Purchase Offer”) to purchase all of non-consenting Lender’s right, title and interest in the collateral for a purchase price equal to non-consenting Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the net proceeds anticipated from such sale of such collateral (as reasonably determined by Administrative Agent, including the undiscounted face principal amount of any purchase money obligation not payable at closing) (“Net Proceeds”). Within ten (10) Business Days thereafter the non-consenting Lender shall be deemed to have accepted such Purchase Offer unless the non-consenting Lender notifies Administrative Agent that it elects to purchase all of the consenting Lender’s right, title and interest in the collateral for a purchase price payable by the non-consenting Lender in an amount equal to the consenting Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Net Proceeds. Any amount payable hereunder by a Lender shall be due on the earlier to occur of the closing of the sale of the collateral or ninety (90) days after the Purchase Offer, regardless of whether the collateral has been sold.

                    5.11. Application of Payments. Except as otherwise provided below with respect to Defaulting Lenders, aggregate principal and interest payments, payments for Indemnified Liabilities and/or foreclosure or sale of the collateral, and net operating income from the collateral during any period it is owned by Administrative Agent on behalf of Lenders (“Payments”) shall be apportioned pro rata among Lenders and payments of any fees (other than fees designated for Administrative Agent’s separate account) shall, as applicable, be apportioned pro rata among Lenders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, all Payments due and payable to Defaulting Lenders shall be due and payable to and be apportioned pro rata among Administrative Agent and Electing Lenders. Such apportionment shall be in the proportion that the Defaulting Lender Payment Amounts paid by them bears to the total Defaulting Lender Payment Amounts of such Defaulting Lender. Such apportionment shall be made until Administrative Agent and Lenders have been paid in full for the Defaulting Lender Payment Amounts. All pro rata Payments shall be remitted to Administrative Agent and all such payments not constituting payment of specific fees, and all proceeds of the Loan collateral received by Administrative Agent, shall be applied first, to pay any fees, indemnities, costs, expenses (including those in Section 5.7) and reimbursements then due to Administrative Agent from Borrower; second, to pay any fees, costs, expenses and reimbursements then due to Lenders from Borrower; third, to pay pro rata interest and late charges due in respect of the Indebtedness and Administrative Agent Advances; fourth, to pay or prepay pro rata principal of the Indebtedness and Administrative Agent Advances; fifth, to pay any indebtedness of Borrower under Swap Transactions; and last, to Borrower, if required by law, or Lenders in Pro Rata Share percentages equal to their percentages at the termination of the Aggregate Commitments.

25


                    5.12. Benefit. The terms and conditions of this Article are inserted for the sole benefit of Administrative Agent and Lenders; the same may be waived in whole or in part, with or without terms or conditions, without prejudicing Administrative Agent’s or Lenders’ rights to later assert them in whole or in part.

ARTICLE 6
GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS

                    6.1. Consents; Borrower’s Indemnity. Except where otherwise expressly provided in the Loan Documents, in any instance where the approval, consent or the exercise of Administrative Agent’s or Lenders’ judgment is required, the granting or denial of such approval or consent and the exercise of such judgment shall be (a) within the sole discretion of Administrative Agent or Lenders; (b) deemed to have been given only by a specific writing intended for the purpose given and executed by Administrative Agent or Lenders; and (c) free from any limitation or requirement of reasonableness. Notwithstanding any approvals or consents by Administrative Agent or Lenders, neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender has any obligation or responsibility whatsoever for the adequacy, form or content of any appraisal, any contract, any lease, or any other matter incident to the Property. Any inspection, appraisal or audit of the Property or the books and records of Borrower, or the procuring of documents and financial and other information, by or on behalf of Administrative Agent shall be for Administrative Agent’s and Lenders’ protection only, and shall not constitute an assumption of responsibility to Borrower or anyone else with regard to the condition, value, construction, maintenance or operation of the Property, or relieve Borrower of any of Borrower’s obligations. Borrower has selected all surveyors, architects, engineers, contractors, materialmen and all other persons or entities furnishing services or materials to the Project. Neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender has any duty to supervise or to inspect the Property or the construction of the Improvements nor any duty of care to Borrower or any other person to protect against, or inform Borrower or any other person of the existence of, negligent, faulty, inadequate or defective design or construction of the Improvements. Neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall be liable or responsible for, and Borrower shall indemnify each Agent-Related Person and each Lender and their respective Affiliates, directors, officers, agents, attorneys and employees (collectively, the “Indemnitees”) from and against: (a) any claim, action, loss or cost (including attorney’s fees and costs) arising from or relating to (i) any defect in the Property or the Improvements, (ii) the performance or default of Borrower, Borrower’s surveyors, architects, engineers, contractors or any other person, (iii) any failure to construct, complete, protect or insure the Improvements, (iv) the payment of costs of labor, materials, or services supplied for the construction, alteration or renovation of the Improvements, including, without limitation, tenant improvements, (v) in connection with the protection and preservation of the Loan collateral (including those with respect to property taxes, insurance premiums, completion of construction, operation, management, improvements, maintenance, repair, sale and disposition), or (vi) the performance of any obligation of Borrower whatsoever; (b) any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, demands, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses and disbursements (including attorney fees and costs) of any kind or nature whatsoever which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any such Indemnitee in any way relating to or arising out of or in connection with (i) the execution, delivery,

26


enforcement, performance or administration of any Loan Document or any other agreement, letter or instrument delivered in connection with the transactions contemplated thereby or the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, (ii) any Commitment or Loan, or (iii) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory (including any investigation of, preparation for, or defense of any pending or threatened claim, investigation, litigation or proceeding) and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; (c) any and all claims, demands, actions or causes of action arising out of or relating to the use of Information (as defined in Section 6.6) or other materials obtained through internet, Intralinks or other similar information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement; and (d) any and all liabilities, losses, costs or expenses (including attorney fees and costs) that any Indemnitee suffers or incurs as a result of the assertion of any foregoing claim, demand, action, cause of action or proceeding, or as a result of the preparation of any defense in connection with any foregoing claim, demand, action, cause of action or proceeding, in all cases, whether or not an Indemnitee is a party to such claim, demand, action, cause of action or proceeding and whether it is defeated, successful or withdrawn, (all the foregoing, collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”); provided, however, that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, demands, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. Nothing, including any advance or acceptance of any document or instrument, shall be construed as a representation or warranty, express or implied, to any party by Administrative Agent or Lenders. Inspection, whether or not followed by notice of Default, shall not constitute a waiver of any Default then existing, or a waiver of Administrative Agent’s and Lenders’ right thereafter to insist that the Improvements be in compliance with the Loan Documents, and all applicable Laws, governmental requirements and restrictive covenants. Administrative Agent’s failure to inspect shall not constitute a waiver of any of Administrative Agent’s or Lenders’ rights under the Loan Documents or at Law or in equity.

                    6.2. Miscellaneous. This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, all of which are identical, and all of which counterparts together shall constitute one and the same instrument. A determination that any provision of this Agreement is unenforceable or invalid shall not affect the enforceability or validity of any other provision and the determination that the application of any provision of this Agreement to any person or circumstance is illegal or unenforceable shall not affect the enforceability or validity of such provision as it may apply to other persons, entities or circumstances. Time shall be of the essence with respect to obligations under the Loan Documents. This Agreement, and its validity, enforcement and interpretation, shall be governed by New York law (without regard to any conflict of Laws principles) and applicable United States federal Law.

                    6.3. Notices.

                    6.3.1. Modes of Delivery; Changes. Except as otherwise provided herein, all notices, and other communications required or which any party desires to give under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be in writing. Unless otherwise specifically provided in such other Loan Document, all such notices and other communications shall be

27


deemed sufficiently given or furnished if delivered by personal delivery, by courier (including overnight delivery services such as FedEx), by registered or certified United States mail, postage prepaid, or by facsimile (with, subject to Subsection 6.3.2 below, a confirmatory duplicate copy sent by first class United States mail), addressed to the party to whom directed or by (subject to Subsection 6.3.3 below) electronic mail address to Borrower, at the addresses set forth at the end of this Agreement or to Administrative Agent or Lenders at the addresses specified for notices on the Schedule of Lenders (unless changed by similar notice in writing given by the particular party whose address is to be changed). Any such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been given and received either at the time of personal delivery or, in the case of courier or mail, as of the date of first attempted delivery at the address and in the manner provided herein, or, in the case of facsimile, upon receipt; provided, however, that service of a notice required by any applicable statute shall be considered complete when the requirements of that statute are met. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no notice of change of address shall be effective except upon actual receipt. This Section shall not be construed in any way to affect or impair any waiver of notice or demand provided in any Loan Document or to require giving of notice or demand to or upon any person in any situation or for any reason.

                    6.3.2. Effectiveness of Facsimile Documents and Signatures. Loan Documents may be transmitted and/or signed by facsimile. The effectiveness of any such documents and signatures shall, subject to applicable Law, have the same force and effect as manually-signed originals and shall be binding on all parties to the Loan Documents. Administrative Agent may also require that any such documents and signatures be confirmed by a manually-signed original thereof; provided, however, that the failure to request or deliver the same shall not limit the effectiveness of any facsimile document or signature.

                    6.3.3. Limited Use of Electronic Mail. Electronic mail and internet and intranet websites may be used only to distribute routine communications, such as financial statements and other information, and to distribute Loan Documents for execution by the parties thereto, and may not be used for any other purpose.

                    6.3.4. Reliance by Administrative Agent and Lenders. Administrative Agent and Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices (including telephonic Loan advance notices) purportedly given by or on behalf of Borrower even if (i) such notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other form of notice specified herein, or (ii) the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof. Borrower shall indemnify each Agent-Related Person and each Lender from all losses, costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such person on each notice purportedly given by or on behalf of Borrower. All telephonic notices to and other communications with Administrative Agent may be recorded by Administrative Agent, and each of the parties hereto hereby consents to such recording. If a Lender does not notify or inform Administrative Agent of whether or not it consents to, or approves of or agrees to any matter of any nature whatsoever with respect to which its consent, approval or agreement is required under the express provisions of this Agreement or with respect to which its consent, approval or agreement is otherwise requested by Administrative Agent, in connection with the Loan or any matter pertaining to the Loan, within ten (10) Business Days (or such longer period as may be specified by Administrative Agent) after such consent, approval or agreement is

28


requested by Administrative Agent, Lender shall be deemed to have given its consent, approval or agreement, as the case may be, with respect to the matter in question.

                    6.4. Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of Borrower is made to Administrative Agent or any Lender, or Administrative Agent or any Lender exercises its right of set-off, and such payment or the proceeds of such set-off or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by Administrative Agent or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law, to a depository (including Administrative Agent, any Lender or its or their Affiliates) for returned items or insufficient collected funds, or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such set-off had not occurred, and (b) each Lender severally agrees to pay to Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share of any amount so recovered from or repaid by Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect.

                    6.5. Successors and Assigns.

                    (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender, and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an Eligible Assignee in accordance with the provisions of subsection (b) of this Section, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of subsection (d) of this Section, or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of subsection (f) of this Section (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Indemnitees) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

                    (b) Any Lender may assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and Pro Rata Share of the Loan at the time owing to it); provided that:

 

 

 

          (i) so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing the assigning Lender’s Commitment after the assignment must be at least $10,000,000.00, and except in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and Pro Rata Share of the Loan at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund as defined in subsection (h) of this Section with respect to a Lender, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes its Pro Rata Share of the Loan outstanding) subject to each such assignment, determined as of the date the Assignment and

29



 

 

 

Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to Administrative Agent, shall not be less than $10,000,000 unless each of Administrative Agent and, so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed);

 

 

 

          (ii) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to its Pro Rata Share of the Loan, the Initial Advance, the Future Advance and the Commitment assigned;

 

 

 

          (iii) any assignment of a Commitment must be approved by Administrative Agent, unless the person that is the proposed assignee is itself a Lender (whether or not the proposed assignee would otherwise qualify as an Eligible Assignee); and

 

 

 

          (iv) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500.

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of this Agreement with respect to Borrower’s obligations surviving termination of this Agreement). Upon request, Administrative Agent shall prepare and Borrower shall execute and deliver one or more Notes (each, a “Replacement Note”) to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with subsection (d) of this Section.

                    (c) Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of Borrower shall maintain at Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amount of each Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Loan owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and Borrower, Administrative Agent and Lenders may treat each person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

                    (d) Any Lender may, without the consent of, but with prior notice to Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”)

30


in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or its Pro Rata Share of the Loan owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) Borrower, Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, and (iv) except to the extent consented to by Administrative Agent in its sole discretion with respect to each participation, any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement.

                    (e) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 1.7, 1.8, 1.12 or any other provision of this Agreement than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant.

                    (f) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Note, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

                    (g) If the consent of Borrower to an assignment or to an assignee is required hereunder (including a consent to an assignment which does not meet the minimum assignment threshold specified in clause (i) of the provision to the first sentence of subsection (b) above), Borrower shall be deemed to have given its consent five (5) Business Days after the date notice thereof has been delivered by the assigning Lender (through Administrative Agent) unless such consent is expressly refused by Borrower prior to such fifth Business Day.

                    (h) As used herein, the following terms have the following meanings:

 

 

 

          “Approved Fund” means any Fund that is administered or managed by (a) a Lender, (b) an Affiliate of a Lender or (c) an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender.

 

 

 

          “Eligible Assignee” means (a) a Lender; (b) an Affiliate of a Lender; (c) an Approved Fund; and (d) any other person (other than a natural person) approved by Administrative Agent, and, unless a Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower (each such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

 

 

 

          “Fund” means any person (other than a natural person) that is (or will be) engaged in making, purchasing, holding or otherwise investing in commercial real estate loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business.

                    6.6. Confidentiality. Each of Administrative Agent and Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including

31


accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential); (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority; (c) to the extent required by applicable Laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process; (d) to any other party to this Agreement; (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the enforcement of rights hereunder; (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or participant in, or any prospective assignee of or participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any direct or indirect contractual counterparty or prospective counterparty (or such contractual counterparty’s or prospective counterparty’s professional advisor) to any Swap Transaction or credit derivative transaction relating to obligations of Borrower and Guarantor; (g) with the consent of Borrower; or (h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than Borrower; or (i) to the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any other similar organization. For the purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from Borrower or Guarantor relating to Borrower or Guarantor or their business, other than any such information that is available to Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by Borrower or Guarantor; provided that in the case of information received from Borrower or Guarantor after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified in writing at the time of delivery as confidential. Any person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such person would accord to its own confidential information. Administrative Agent and Lenders may disclose the existence of this Agreement and information about this Agreement to market data collectors, similar service providers to the lending industry, and service providers to Administrative Agent and Lenders in connection with the administration and management of this Agreement, the Loan and Loan Documents.

                    6.7. Set-off. In addition to any rights and remedies of Administrative Agent and Lenders provided by Law, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default, Administrative Agent and each Lender is authorized at any time and from time to time, without prior notice to Borrower or any other party to the Loan Documents, any such notice being waived by Borrower (on its own behalf and on behalf of each party to the Loan Documents to the fullest extent permitted by Law), to set-off and apply any and all deposits, general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, any time owing by Administrative Agent or such Lender hereunder or under any other Loan Document to or for the credit or the account of such parties to the Loan Documents against any and all Indebtedness, irrespective of whether or not Administrative Agent or such Lender shall have made demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such Indebtedness may be contingent or unmatured or denominated in a currency different from that of the applicable depositor indebtedness. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify Borrower and Administrative Agent after any such set-off and application made by such Lender; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.

32


                    6.8. Sharing of Payments. If, other than as expressly provided elsewhere herein, any Lender shall obtain on account of the portions of the Loan advanced by it, any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise) in excess of its ratable share (or other share contemplated hereunder) thereof, such Lender shall immediately (a) notify Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the portions of the Loan made by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment in respect of such portions of the Loan or such participations, as the case may be, pro rata with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from the purchasing Lender under any of the circumstances described in Section 6.4 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the purchasing Lender in its discretion), such purchase shall to that extent be rescinded and each other Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price paid therefor, together with an amount equal to such paying Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such paying Lender’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered without further interest thereon. Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender may, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off), but subject to Section 6.7 with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of Borrower in the amount of such participation. Administrative Agent will keep records (which shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error) of participations purchased under this Section and will in each case notify Lenders following any such purchases or repayments. Each Lender that purchases a participation pursuant to this Section shall from and after such purchase have the right to give all notices, requests, demands, directions and other communications under this Agreement with respect to the portion of the Obligations purchased to the same extent as though the purchasing Lender were the original owner of the Obligations purchased.

                    6.9. Amendments; Survival. Administrative Agent and Lenders shall be entitled to amend (whether pursuant to a separate intercreditor agreement or otherwise) any of the terms, conditions or agreements set forth in Article 5 or as to any other matter in the Loan Documents respecting payments to Administrative Agent or Lenders or the required number of Lenders to approve or disapprove any matter or to take or refrain from taking any action, without the consent of Borrower or any other person or the execution by Borrower or any other person of any such amendment or intercreditor agreement. Subject to the foregoing, Administrative Agent may amend or waive any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or consent to any departure by any party to the Loan Documents therefrom which amendment, waiver or consent is intended to be within Administrative Agent’s discretion or determination, or otherwise if such amendment, waiver or consent does not constitute a material change to the Loan Documents; provided, however, that otherwise no such amendment, waiver or consent shall be effective unless in writing, signed by the Required Lenders and Borrower or the applicable party to the Loan Documents, as the case may be, and acknowledged by Administrative Agent, and each such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; and provided further that no such amendment, waiver or consent shall:

 

 

 

          (a) extend or increase the Commitment of any Lender (or reinstate any Commitment terminated pursuant to Section 4.2), without the written consent of such

33



 

 

 

Lender (it being understood that a waiver of a Default shall not constitute an extension or increase in any Lender’s Commitment);

 

 

 

          (b) postpone any date fixed by this Agreement or any other Loan Document for any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts due to Lenders (or any of them) hereunder or under any other Loan Document, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby;

 

 

 

          (c) reduce the principal of, or the rate of interest specified herein on, any portion of the Loan or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; provided, however, that Administrative Agent may waive any obligation of Borrower to pay interest at the Past Due Rate and/or late charges for periods of up to thirty (30) days, and only the consent of the Required Lenders shall be necessary to waive any obligation of Borrower to pay interest at the Past Due Rate or late charges thereafter, or to amend the definition of “Past Due Rate” or “late charges”;

 

 

 

          (d) change the percentage of the combined Commitments or of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Loan which is required for Lenders or any of them to take any action hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender;

 

 

 

          (e) change the definition of “Pro Rata Share” or “Required Lender” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to amend, waive or otherwise modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender;

 

 

 

          (f) amend this Section, or Section 6.8, without the written consent of each Lender;

 

 

 

          (g) release the liability of Borrower or any existing Guarantor without the written consent of each Lender;

 

 

 

          (h) permit the sale, transfer, pledge, mortgage or assignment of any Loan collateral or any direct or indirect interest in Borrower, except as expressly permitted under the Loan Documents, without the written consent of each Lender; or

 

 

 

          (i) transfer or release any lien on, or after foreclosure or other acquisition of title by Administrative Agent on behalf of Lenders transfer or sell, any Loan collateral except as permitted in Section 5.10, without the written consent of each Lender,

and provided further that no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by Administrative Agent in addition to Lenders required above, affect the rights or duties of Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder, except that the Commitment of such Lender may not be increased without the consent of such Lender. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Administrative Agent is hereby authorized, without the consent of Lenders,

34


to enter into subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreements with tenants on reasonable and customary terms, as determined by Administrative Agent.

                              This Agreement shall continue in full force and effect until the Indebtedness is paid in full and all of Administrative Agent’s and Lenders’ obligations under this Agreement are terminated; and all representations and warranties and all provisions herein for indemnity of the Indemnitees, Administrative Agent and Lenders (and any other provisions herein specified to survive) shall survive payment in full, satisfaction or discharge of the Indebtedness, the resignation or removal of Administrative Agent or replacement of any Lender, and any release or termination of this Agreement or of any other Loan Documents.”

                    6.10. Costs and Expenses. Without limiting any Loan Document and to the extent not prohibited by applicable Laws, Borrower shall pay when due, shall reimburse to Administrative Agent for the benefit of itself and Lenders on demand and shall indemnify Administrative Agent and Lenders from, all reasonable out-of-pocket fees, costs, and expenses paid or incurred by Administrative Agent in connection with the negotiation, preparation and execution of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (and any amendments, approvals, consents, waivers and releases requested, required, proposed or done from time to time), or in connection with the disbursement, administration or collection of the Loan or the enforcement of the obligations of Borrower or the exercise of any right or remedy of Administrative Agent, including (a) all reasonable fees and expenses of Administrative Agent’s counsel; (b) reasonable fees and charges of each inspector and engineer retained by Administrative Agent for purposes specified in this Agreement; (c) appraisal, re-appraisal and survey costs; (d) title insurance charges and premiums; (e) title search or examination costs, including abstracts, abstractors’ certificates and uniform commercial code searches; (f) judgment and tax lien searches for Borrower and each Guarantor; (g) escrow fees; (h) fees and costs of environmental investigations, site assessments and remediations; (i) recordation taxes, documentary taxes, transfer taxes and mortgage taxes; (j) filing and recording fees; and (k) loan brokerage fees. Borrower shall pay all costs and expenses incurred by Administrative Agent, including attorneys’ fees, if the obligations or any part thereof are sought to be collected by or through an attorney at law, whether or not involving probate, appellate, administrative or bankruptcy proceedings. Borrower shall pay all costs and expenses of complying with the Loan Documents, whether or not such costs and expenses are included in any budget related to the Property. Borrower’s obligations under this Section shall survive the delivery of the Loan Documents, the making of advances, the payment in full of the Indebtedness, the release or reconveyance of any of the Loan Documents, the foreclosure of the Mortgage or conveyance in lieu of foreclosure, any bankruptcy or other debtor relief proceeding, and any other event whatsoever.

                    6.11. Tax Forms.

                              (a) (i) Each Lender, and each holder of a participation interest herein, that is not a “United States person” (a “Foreign Lender”) within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver to Administrative Agent, prior to receipt of any payment subject to withholding (or upon accepting an assignment or receiving a participation interest herein), two duly signed completed copies of either Form W-8BEN or any successor thereto (relating to such Foreign Lender and entitling it to a complete exemption from withholding on all payments to be made to such Foreign Lender by Borrower pursuant to this Agreement) or Form W-8ECI or any

35


successor thereto (relating to all payments to be made to such Foreign Lender by Borrower pursuant to this Agreement) of the United States Internal Revenue Service or such other evidence satisfactory to Borrower and Administrative Agent that such Foreign Lender is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of, United States withholding tax, including any exemption pursuant to Section 881(c) of the Code. Thereafter and from time to time, each such Foreign Lender shall (A) promptly submit to Administrative Agent such additional duly completed and signed copies of one of such forms (or such successor forms as shall be adopted from time to time by the relevant United States taxing authorities) as may then be available under then current United States Laws and regulations to avoid, or such evidence as is satisfactory to Borrower and Administrative Agent of any available exemption from or reduction of, United States withholding taxes in respect of all payments to be made to such Foreign Lender by Borrower pursuant to the Loan Documents, (B) promptly notify Administrative Agent of any change in circumstances which would modify or render invalid any claimed exemption or reduction, and (C) take such steps as shall not be materially disadvantageous to it, in the reasonable judgment of such Lenders, and as may be reasonably necessary (including the re-designation of its lending office, if any) to avoid any requirement of applicable Laws that Borrower make any deduction or withholding for taxes from amounts payable to such Foreign Lender.

                              (ii) Each Foreign Lender, to the extent it does not act or ceases to act for its own account with respect to any portion of any sums paid or payable to such Lender under any of the Loan Documents (for example, in the case of a typical participation by such Lender), shall deliver to Administrative Agent on the date when such Foreign Lender ceases to act for its own account with respect to any portion of any such sums paid or payable, and at such other times as may be necessary in the determination of Administrative Agent (in the reasonable exercise of its discretion), (A) two duly signed completed copies of the forms or statements required to be provided by such Lender as set forth above, to establish the portion of any such sums paid or payable with respect to which such Lender acts for its own account that is not subject to U.S. withholding tax, and (B) two duly signed completed copies of United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY (or any successor thereto), together with any information such Lender chooses to transmit with such form, and any other certificate or statement of exemption required under the Code, to establish that such Lender is not acting for its own account with respect to a portion of any such sums payable to such Lender.

                              (iii) Borrower shall not be required to pay any additional amount to any Foreign Lender under Section 1.11, (A) with respect to any Taxes required to be deducted or withheld on the basis of the information, certificates or statements of exemption such Lender transmits with an United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY pursuant to this subsection (a) of this Section, or (B) if such Lender shall have failed to satisfy the foregoing provisions of this subsection (a); provided that if such Lender shall have satisfied the requirement of this subsection (a) on the date such Lender became a Lender or ceased to act for its own account with respect to any payment under any of the Loan Documents, nothing in this subsection (a) shall relieve Borrower of its obligation to pay any amounts pursuant to Section 1.11 in the event that, as a result of any change in any applicable law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order, or any change in the interpretation, administration or application thereof, such Lender is no longer properly entitled to deliver forms, certificates or other evidence at a subsequent date establishing the fact that such Lender or other person for the account of

36


which such Lender receives any sums payable under any of the Loan Documents is not subject to withholding or is subject to withholding at a reduced rate.

                              (iv) Administrative Agent may, without reduction, withhold any Taxes required to be deducted and withheld from any payment under any of the Loan Documents with respect to which Borrower is not required to pay additional amounts under this subsection (a).

                    (b) Upon the request of Administrative Agent, each Lender that is a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver to Administrative Agent two duly signed completed copies of United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-9. If such Lender fails to deliver such forms, then Administrative Agent may withhold from any interest payment to such Lender an amount equivalent to the applicable back-up withholding tax imposed by the Code, without reduction.

                    (c) If any Tribunal asserts that Administrative Agent did not properly withhold or backup withhold, as the case may be, any tax or other amount from payments made to or for the account of any Lender, such Lender shall indemnify Administrative Agent therefor, including all penalties and interest and costs and expenses (including attorney fees) of Administrative Agent. The obligation of Lenders under this subsection shall survive the removal or replacement of a Lender, the payment of all Indebtedness and the resignation or replacement of Administrative Agent.

                    6.12. Further Assurances. Borrower will, upon Administrative Agent’s request, (a) promptly correct any defect, error or omission in any Loan Document; (b) execute, acknowledge, deliver, procure, record or file such further instruments and do such further acts as Administrative Agent deems reasonably necessary, desirable or proper to carry out the purposes of the Loan Documents and to identify and subject to the liens and security interest of the Loan Documents any property intended to be covered thereby, including any renewals, additions, substitutions, replacements, or appurtenances to the Property; (c) execute, acknowledge, deliver, procure, file or record any document or instrument Administrative Agent deems necessary, desirable, or proper to protect the liens or the security interest under the Loan Documents against the rights or interests of third persons; and (d) provide such certificates, documents, reports, information, affidavits and other instruments and do such further acts deemed necessary, desirable or proper by Administrative Agent to comply with the requirements of any agency having jurisdiction over Administrative Agent. In addition, at any time, and from time to time, upon request by Administrative Agent or any Lender, Borrower will, at Borrower’s expense, provide any and all further instruments, certificates and other documents as may, in the opinion of Administrative Agent or such Lender, be necessary or desirable in order to verify Borrower’s identity and background in a manner satisfactory to Administrative Agent or such Lender.

                    6.13. Inducement to Lenders. The representations and warranties contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (a) are made to induce Lenders to make the Loan and extend any other credit to or for the account of Borrower pursuant hereto, and Administrative Agent and Lenders are relying thereon, and will continue to rely thereon, and (b) shall survive any bankruptcy proceedings involving Borrower, Guarantor or the Property, foreclosure, or conveyance in lieu of foreclosure.

                    6.21. USA Patriot Act Notice. Each Lender and Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies Borrower, which information includes the name and address of Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender or Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify Borrower in accordance with the Act.

39


                    6.22. Entire Agreement.

ADVANCES

                    1. Draw Request. A “Draw Request” means a properly completed and executed written application by Borrower to Administrative Agent in the form of Exhibit “F-1” (or in another form satisfactory to Administrative Agent) setting forth the amount of the Future Advance.

                    2. Limit on Advances. No more than two advances shall be made by Lenders under this Agreement, such advances to be subject to satisfaction of the conditions described in this Agreement and to be made as follows:

 

 

 

          (a) An initial advance in the amount of the Initial Advance to reimburse Borrower for a portion of the acquisition cost of the Property. The Initial Advance shall be evidenced by the Initial Advance Notes and secured by, among other things, the Initial Advance Mortgage.

 

 

 

          (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, there shall be only one Future Advance, to be advanced, if at all, in a single lump sum. The Future Advance shall be evidenced by the Future Advance Notes and secured by, among other things, the Future Advance Mortgage.

                    3. Conditions to the Initial Advance. As conditions precedent to the Initial Advance hereunder, if and to the extent required by Administrative Agent, to Administrative Agent’s satisfaction, Borrower must have satisfied the conditions required under this Agreement, including all of those conditions set forth in Exhibit “C” and Section 4 below.

                    4. Conditions to All Advances. As conditions precedent to each advance, in addition to all other requirements contained in this Agreement, if and to the extent required by Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent shall have received and approved the following:

 

 

 

          (i) Evidence satisfactory to Administrative Agent of the continued satisfaction of all conditions to the Initial Advance and, as to the Future Advance, Exhibit “C-1”.

 

 

 

          (ii) A Draw Request.

 

 

 

          (iii) Evidence satisfactory to Administrative Agent that no Default or any event which, with the giving of notice or the lapse of time, or both, could become a Default, exists.

 

 

 

          (iv) Evidence satisfactory to Administrative Agent that the representations and warranties made in the Loan Documents must be true and correct on and as of the date of each advance and no event shall have occurred or condition or circumstance shall exist which, if known to Borrower, would render any such representation or warranty incorrect or misleading.




 

 

 

          (v) To the extent requested by Administrative Agent, a true and complete copy of each contract to which Borrower is a party, if applicable, for labor, materials, services and/or other work included in a Draw Request duly executed and delivered by all parties thereto and effective, and a true and complete copy of a fully executed copy of each such subcontract or other contract as Administrative Agent may have requested.

 

 

 

          (vi) Evidence satisfactory to Administrative Agent that no mechanic’s or materialmen’s lien or other encumbrance has been filed and remain in effect against the Property, no stop notices shall have been served on Lenders that have not been bonded by Borrower in a manner and amount satisfactory to Administrative Agent, and releases or waivers of mechanics’ liens and receipted bills showing payment of all amounts due to all parties who have furnished materials or services or performed labor of any kind in connection with the Property.

 

 

 

          (vii) Evidence satisfactory to Administrative Agent that the Title Insurance has been endorsed and brought to date in a manner satisfactory to Administrative Agent to increase the coverage by the amount of each advance through the date of each such advance with no additional title change or exception not approved by Administrative Agent.

 

 

 

          (viii) Evidence satisfactory to Administrative Agent that the Improvements shall not have been damaged and not repaired and shall not be the subject of any pending or threatened condemnation or adverse zoning proceeding.

                    5. Conditions and Waivers. All conditions precedent to the obligation of Lenders to make any advance are imposed hereby solely for the benefit of Administrative Agent and Lenders, and no other party may require satisfaction of any such condition precedent or be entitled to assume that Lenders will refuse to make any advance in the absence of strict compliance with such conditions precedent. No advance shall constitute an approval or acceptance by Administrative Agent of any construction work, or a waiver of any condition precedent to any further advance, or preclude Administrative Agent from thereafter declaring the failure of Borrower to satisfy such condition precedent to be a Default. No waiver by Administrative Agent of any condition precedent or obligation shall preclude Administrative Agent from requiring such condition or obligation to be met prior to making any other advance or from thereafter declaring the failure to satisfy such condition or obligation to be a Default.

SURVEY REQUIREMENTS

                    1. Requirements. The Survey shall be made in accordance with, and meet the requirements of, the certification below by a registered professional engineer or registered professional land surveyor. The description shall be a single metes and bounds perimeter description of the entire Land, and a separate metes and bounds description of the perimeter of each constituent tract or parcel out of the Land. The total acreage and square footage of the Land and each constituent tract or parcel of the Land shall be certified. If the Land has been recorded on a map or plat as part of an abstract or subdivision, all survey lines must be shown, and all lot and block lines (with distances and bearings) and numbers, must be shown. The date of any revisions subsequent to the initial survey prepared pursuant to these requirements must also be shown.

                    2. Certification. The certification for the property description and the map or plat shall be addressed to Administrative Agent for Lenders, Borrower and the Title Company, signed by the surveyor (a registered professional land surveyor or registered professional engineer), bearing current date, registration number, and seal, and shall be in the following form or its substantial equivalent:

 

 

 

This is to certify to Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent for certain Lenders, _________________________, as Borrower and, _________________________, as the Title Company that this map or plat and the survey on which it is based were made in accordance with the “Minimum Standard Detail Requirements for ALTA/ACSM Land Title Surveys” jointly established and adopted by ALTA and NSPS in 2005, and include optional items 1, 2, 4 (in square feet or acres), 6, 8, 10, 11(b), 16, 17, 18, and if buildings are located on the land, optional items 7(a), 7(b)(1), 7(b)(2) and 9 of Table A thereof. Pursuant to the Accuracy Standards as adopted by ALTA and NSPS and in effect on the date of this certification, the undersigned further certifies that in my professional opinion, as a land surveyor registered in the State of ____________, the maximum Relative Positional Accuracy resulting from the measurements made on the survey does not exceed the Allowable Relative Positional Accuracy for Measurements Controlling Land Boundaries on ALTA/ACSM Land Title Surveys (0.07 feet or 20 mm + 50 ppm). The undersigned additionally certifies that (a) this survey was made on the ground under my supervision; (b) I have received and examined a copy of the Title Insurance Commitment No. _______________ issued by the Title Company as well as a copy of each instrument listed therein, and the subject land and each tract or parcel thereof described in this survey is the same land as described in the Title Commitment; (c) if the subject land consists of two or more tracts or parcels having common boundaries, those tracts and parcels are contiguous along the common boundaries; (d) the subject land and each tract or parcel thereof has a tax map designation separate and distinct from that of any other land and the subject land and each tract or parcel thereof is a separate, legally subdivided parcel; (e) this survey correctly shows all matters of record, (and to the extent they can be located, their location and dimensions) of which I have been advised affecting the subject land according to the legal description in such matters (with instrument, book,




 

 

 

and page number indicated); (f) except as shown on this survey, no part of the subject land is located in a 100-year Flood Plain or in an identified “flood prone area”, as defined pursuant to the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as amended, as reflected by Flood Insurance Rate Map Panel #____________ dated _______________, which such map panel covers the area in which the Property is situated and this survey correctly indicates the zone designation of any area as being in the 100-year Flood Plain or “flood prone area”; (g) to the best of my knowledge, this survey shows the relation of and distance of all substantial, visible buildings, sidewalks and other improvements to easements and setback lines; and (h) to the best of my knowledge, except as shown on this survey, neither the subject land nor any tract or parcel thereof serves any adjoining land for drainage, utilities, or ingress or egress.

EXHIBIT “I”

LEASING AND TENANT MATTERS

          Borrower and Lenders agree as follows:

                    1. Approved Leases. Borrower shall not enter into any tenant lease of space in the Improvements unless satisfactory to or deemed satisfactory to Administrative Agent prior to execution. Borrower’s standard form of tenant lease, and any revisions thereto, must have the prior written approval of Administrative Agent. Any tenant lease shall be “deemed” satisfactory to Administrative Agent that (a) is either on the standard form lease approved by Administrative Agent, with no material deviations except as satisfactory to Administrative Agent or on the standard lease form of a national retailer which contains no provisions materially more adverse to landlord than the provisions of the lease form approved by Administrative Agent; (b) is entered into in the ordinary course of business with a bona fide unrelated third party tenant, and Borrower, acting in good faith and exercising due diligence, has determined that the tenant is financially capable of performing its obligations under the lease; (c) is received by Administrative Agent (together with each guarantee thereof (if any) and financial information regarding the tenant and each guarantor (if any) received by Borrower) within fifteen (15) days after execution; (d) reflects an arms-length transaction at then current market rate for comparable space; (e) contains no right to purchase the Property, or any present or future interest therein; (f) does not cover in excess of 15,000 square feet of net rentable area of the Improvements; and (g) is expressly subordinate to the Mortgage. Borrower shall provide to Administrative Agent a correct and complete copy of each tenant lease, including any exhibits, and each guarantee thereof (if any), prior to execution unless the lease in question is reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent under the foregoing requirements. Borrower shall, throughout the term of this Agreement, pay all reasonable costs incurred by Administrative Agent in connection with Administrative Agent’s review and approval of tenant leases and each guarantee thereof (if any), including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs.

                    2. Effect of Lease Approval. No approval of any lease by Administrative Agent shall be for any purpose other than to protect Lenders’ security, and to preserve Lenders’ rights under the Loan Documents. No approval by Administrative Agent shall result in a waiver of any default of Borrower. In no event shall any approval by Administrative Agent of a lease be a representation of any kind, with regard to the lease or its adequacy or enforceability, or the financial capacity of any tenant or guarantor.

                    3. Representations Concerning Leases. Borrower represents and warrants to Administrative Agent and Lenders that Borrower has delivered to Administrative Agent a true and correct copy of all tenant leases and each guarantee thereof (if any), affecting any part of the Improvements, together with an accurate and complete rent roll for the Project, and no such lease or guarantee contains any option to purchase all or any portion of the Property or any interest therein or contains any right of first refusal relating to any sale of the Property or any portion thereof or interest therein.


                    4. Delivery of Leasing Information and Documents. Borrower shall promptly (a) deliver to Administrative Agent such quarterly rent rolls, leasing schedules and reports, operating statements, financial statements for tenants other than residential tenants with a lease term for less than one year and other information regarding tenants and prospective tenants or other leasing information as Administrative Agent from time to time may request, and (b) obtain and deliver to Administrative Agent such estoppel certificates and subordination and attornment agreements executed by such tenants (and guarantors, if any) in the respective forms attached as exhibits to the Closing Checklist, or otherwise in such forms as Administrative Agent from time to time may reasonably require.

                    5. Income from the Property. Borrower shall first apply all income from leases, and all other income derived from the Property, to pay costs and expenses associated with the ownership, maintenance, development, operating, and marketing of the Land and Improvements, including all amounts then required to be paid under the Loan Documents, before using or applying such income for any other purpose.

                    6. Compliance and Default. As additional conditions to Lenders’ obligations under this Agreement, all tenants having the right to do so must approve all plans and all changes thereto, the construction of the Improvements, and all other aspects of the Project requiring tenants’ approval. A default by Borrower under or any failure by Borrower to satisfy any of the conditions of a lease shall constitute a Default under this Agreement. Borrower shall promptly notify Administrative Agent in writing of any failure by any party to perform any material obligation under any lease, any event or condition which would permit a tenant to terminate or cancel a lease, or any notice given by a tenant with respect to the foregoing, specifying in each case the action Borrower has taken or will take with respect thereto.

NOTE

 

$____________

____________, 20___

                    FOR VALUE RECEIVED, _________________________ (“Borrower”, whether one or more) hereby promises to pay to the order of [_________________________ (“Lender”) under that certain Loan Agreement (defined below) among Borrower,] Bank of America N.A., a national banking association and administrative agent (together with any and all of its successors and assigns, “Administrative Agent”) for the benefit of Lenders from time to time a party to that certain Amended and Restated Loan Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) [dated ____________, 20__] of even date herewith, without offset, in immediately available funds in lawful money of the United States of America, at Administrative Agent’s Office as defined in the Loan Agreement, the principal sum of _________________________ DOLLARS ($____________) (or the unpaid balance of all principal advanced against this Note, if that amount is less), together with interest on the unpaid principal balance of this Note from day to day outstanding as hereinafter provided.

          1. Note; Interest; Payment Schedule and Maturity Date. This Note is one of the [Initial Advance] [Future Advance] Notes referred to in Loan Agreement and is entitled to the benefits thereof. The entire principal balance of this Note then unpaid shall be due and payable at the times as set forth in the Loan Agreement. Accrued unpaid interest shall be due and payable at the times and at the interest rate as set forth in the Loan Agreement until all principal and accrued interest owing on this Note shall have been fully paid and satisfied. Any amount not paid when due and payable hereunder shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, bear interest and if applicable a late charge as set forth in the Loan Agreement.

          2. Security; Loan Documents. The security for this Note includes a Mortgage, Assignment of Leases and Rents and Security Agreement in the amount of $[____________] (which, as it may have been or may be amended, restated, modified or supplemented from time to time, is herein called the “Mortgage”) dated ____________, 20___ from Borrower to Administrative Agent covering certain property in Cortlandt, Westchester County, New York described therein (the “Property”). This Note, the Mortgage, the Loan Agreement and all other documents now or hereafter securing, guaranteeing or executed in connection with the loan evidenced by this Note (the “Loan”), are, as the same have been or may be amended, restated, modified or supplemented from time to time, herein sometimes called individually a “Loan Document” and together the “Loan Documents”.

          3. Defaults.

                    (a) It shall be a default (“Default”) under this Note and each of the other Loan Documents if (i) any principal, interest or other amount of money due under this Note is not paid in full when due, regardless of how such amount may have become due; (ii) any covenant, agreement, condition, representation or warranty herein or in any other Loan Documents is not fully and timely performed, observed or kept; or (iii) there shall occur any default or event of


default under the Mortgage or any other Loan Document. Upon the occurrence of a Default, Administrative Agent on behalf of Lenders shall have the rights to declare the unpaid principal balance and accrued but unpaid interest on this Note, and all other amounts due hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, at once due and payable (and upon such declaration, the same shall be at once due and payable), to foreclose any liens and security interests securing payment hereof and to exercise any of its other rights, powers and remedies under this Note, under any other Loan Document, or at Law or in equity.

                    (b) All of the rights, remedies, powers and privileges (together, “Rights”) of Administrative Agent on behalf of Lenders provided for in this Note and in any other Loan Document are cumulative of each other and of any and all other Rights at Law or in equity. The resort to any Right shall not prevent the concurrent or subsequent employment of any other appropriate Right. No single or partial exercise of any Right shall exhaust it, or preclude any other or further exercise thereof, and every Right may be exercised at any time and from time to time. No failure by Administrative Agent or Lenders to exercise, nor delay in exercising any Right, including but not limited to the right to accelerate the maturity of this Note, shall be construed as a waiver of any Default or as a waiver of any Right. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing provisions, the acceptance by Lender from time to time of any payment under this Note which is past due or which is less than the payment in full of all amounts due and payable at the time of such payment, shall not (i) constitute a waiver of or impair or extinguish the right of Administrative Agent or Lenders to accelerate the maturity of this Note or to exercise any other Right at the time or at any subsequent time, or nullify any prior exercise of any such Right, or (ii) constitute a waiver of the requirement of punctual payment and performance or a novation in any respect.

                    (c) If any holder of this Note retains an attorney in connection with any Default or at maturity or to collect, enforce or defend this Note or any other Loan Document in any lawsuit or in any probate, reorganization, bankruptcy, arbitration or other proceeding, or if Borrower sues any holder in connection with this Note or any other Loan Document and does not prevail, then Borrower agrees to pay to each such holder, in addition to principal, interest and any other sums owing to Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, all costs and expenses incurred by such holder in trying to collect this Note or in any such suit or proceeding, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and expenses, investigation costs and all court costs, whether or not suit is filed hereon, whether before or after the Maturity Date, or whether in connection with bankruptcy, insolvency or appeal, or whether collection is made against Borrower or any guarantor or endorser or any other person primarily or secondarily liable hereunder.

          4. Heirs, Successors and Assigns. The terms of this Note and of the other Loan Documents shall bind and inure to the benefit of the heirs, devisees, representatives, successors and assigns of the parties. The foregoing sentence shall not be construed to permit Borrower to assign the Loan except as otherwise permitted under the Loan Documents. As further provided in the Loan Agreement, a Lender may, at any time, sell, transfer, or assign all or a portion of its interest in this Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents, as set forth in the Loan Agreement.

          5. General Provisions. Time is of the essence with respect to Borrower’s obligations under this Note. If more than one person or entity executes this Note as Borrower, all of said parties shall be jointly and severally liable for payment of the indebtedness evidenced hereby. Borrower and all sureties, endorsers, guarantors and any other party now or hereafter liable for the payment of this Note in whole or in part, hereby severally (a) waive demand, presentment for payment, notice of dishonor and of nonpayment, protest, notice of protest, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of acceleration and all other notices (except any notices which are specifically required by this Note or any other Loan Document), filing of suit and diligence in collecting this Note or enforcing any of the security herefor; (b) agree to any substitution, subordination, exchange or release of any such security or the release of any party primarily or secondarily liable hereon; (c) agree that neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall be required first to institute suit or exhaust its remedies hereon against Borrower or others liable or to become liable hereon or to perfect or enforce its rights against them or any security herefor; (d) consent to any extensions or postponements of time of payment of this Note for any period or periods of time and to any partial payments, before or after maturity, and to any other indulgences with respect hereto, without notice thereof to any of them; and (e) submit (and waive all rights to object) to non-exclusive personal jurisdiction of any state or federal court sitting in the city and county, and venue in the city or county, in which payment is to be made as specified in the first paragraph of Page 1 of this Note, for the enforcement of any and all obligations under this Note and the Loan Documents; (f) waive the benefit of all homestead and similar exemptions as to this Note; (g) agree that their liability under this Note shall not be affected or impaired by any determination that any security interest or lien taken by Lender to secure this Note is invalid or unperfected; and (h) hereby subordinate any and all rights against Borrower and any of the security for the payment of this Note, whether by subrogation, agreement or otherwise, until this Note is paid in full. A determination that any provision of this Note is unenforceable or invalid shall not affect the enforceability or validity of any other provision and the determination that the application of any provision of this Note to any person or circumstance is illegal or unenforceable shall not affect the enforceability or validity of such provision as it may apply to other persons or circumstances. This Note may not be amended except in a writing specifically intended for such purpose and executed by the party against whom enforcement of the amendment is sought. Captions and headings in this Note are for convenience only and shall be disregarded in construing it. THIS NOTE, AND ITS VALIDITY, ENFORCEMENT AND INTERPRETATION, SHALL BE GOVERNED BY NEW YORK LAW (WITHOUT REGARD TO ANY CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES) AND APPLICABLE UNITED STATES FEDERAL LAW.

          6. Notices. Any notice, request, or demand to or upon Borrower or Lender shall be deemed to have been properly given or made when delivered in accordance with the Loan Agreement.

          7. No Usury. It is expressly stipulated and agreed to be the intent of Borrower, Administrative Agent and all Lenders at all times to comply with applicable state Law or applicable United States federal Law (to the extent that it permits a Lender to contract for, charge, take, reserve, or receive a greater amount of interest than under state Law) and that this Section shall control every other covenant and agreement in this Note and the other Loan Documents. If applicable state or federal Law should at any time be judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount called for under this Note or under any of the other Loan

3


Documents, or contracted for, charged, taken, reserved, or received with respect to the Loan, or if Administrative Agent’s exercise of the option to accelerate the Maturity Date, or if any prepayment by Borrower results in Borrower having paid any interest in excess of that permitted by applicable Law, then it is Administrative Agent’s and each Lender’s express intent that all excess amounts theretofore collected by Administrative Agent or any Lender shall be credited on the principal balance of this Note and all other indebtedness and the provisions of this Note and the other Loan Documents shall immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new documents, so as to comply with the applicable Law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder or thereunder. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Lenders for the use, forbearance, or detention of 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 lawful rate from time to time in effect and applicable to the Loan for so long as the Loan is outstanding.

                    THE LOAN DOCUMENTS REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES.

THERE ARE NO ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES.

EXHIBIT “O”

SWAP CONTRACTS

                    1. Swap Documentation. Within the timeframes required by Lender and Swap Counterparty, Borrower shall deliver to Swap Counterparty the following documents and other items, executed and acknowledged as appropriate, all in form and substance satisfactory to Lender and Swap Counterparty: (a) Master Agreement in the form published by the International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. and related schedule in the form agreed upon between Borrower (or its Affiliate) and Swap Counterparty; (b) a confirmation under the foregoing, if applicable; (c) a Guaranty; (d) if Borrower (or its Affiliate) is anything other than a natural person, evidence of due authorization to enter into transactions under the foregoing Swap Contract with Swap Counterparty, together with evidence of due authorization and execution of any Swap Contract; and such other title endorsements, documents, instruments and agreements as Lender and Swap Counterparty may require to evidence satisfaction of the conditions set forth in this Section, including a swap endorsement to Lender’s title policy in form and substance satisfactory to Lender.

                    2. Conveyance and Security Interest. To secure Borrower’s Obligations, Borrower hereby transfers, assigns and transfers to Lender, and grants to Lender a security interest in, all of Borrower’s right, title and interest, but not its obligations, duties or liabilities for any breach, in, under and to the Swap Contract, any and all amounts received by Borrower in connection therewith or to which Borrower is entitled thereunder, and all proceeds of the foregoing. All amounts payable to Borrower under the Swap Contract shall be paid to Lender and shall be applied to pay interest or other amounts under the Loan.

                    3. Intentionally Omitted.

                    4. Cross-Default. It shall be a Default under this Agreement if any default (beyond any applicable notice or cure periods) occurs as defined under any Swap Contract as to which Borrower (or its Affiliate) is the Defaulting Party, or if any Termination Event occurs under any Swap Contract as to which Borrower (or its Affiliate) is an Affected Party. As used in this Section, the terms “Defaulting Party”, “Termination Event” and “Affected Party” have the meanings ascribed to them in the Swap Contract.

                    5. Remedies; Cure Rights. In addition to any and all other remedies to which Lender and Swap Counterparty are entitled at law or in equity, Swap Counterparty shall have the right, to the extent so provided in any Swap Contract or any Master Agreement relating thereto, (a) to declare an event of default, termination event or other similar event thereunder and to designate an Early Termination Date as defined under the Master Agreement, and (b) to determine net termination amounts in accordance with the Swap Contract and to setoff amounts between Swap Contracts. Lender shall have the right at any time (but shall have no obligation) to take in its name or in the name of Borrower (or its Affiliate) such action as Lender may at any time determine to be necessary or advisable to cure any default under any Swap Contract or to protect the rights of Borrower (or its Affiliate) or Swap Counterparty thereunder; provided, however, that before the occurrence of a Default under this Agreement, Lender shall give prior

i


written notice to Borrower before taking any such action. For this purpose, Borrower hereby constitutes Lender its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full power of substitution, which power of attorney is coupled with an interest and irrevocable, to exercise, at the election of Lender, any and all rights and remedies of Borrower (or its Affiliate) under the Swap Contract, including making any payments thereunder and consummating any transactions contemplated thereby, and to take any action that Lender may deem proper in order to collect, assert or enforce any claim, right or title, in and to the Swap Contract hereby assigned and conveyed, and generally to take any and all such action in relation thereto as Lender shall deem advisable. Lender shall not incur any liability if any action so taken by Lender or on its behalf shall prove to be inadequate or invalid. Borrower expressly understands and agrees that Lender is not hereby assuming any duties or obligations of Borrower (or its Affiliate) to make payments to Swap Counterparty under any Swap Contract or under any other Loan Document. Such payment duties and obligations remain the responsibility of Borrower (or its Affiliate) notwithstanding any language in this Agreement.

ARTICLE 2

Representations, Warranties and Covenants

          Section 2.1. Mortgagor represents, warrants, and covenants as follows:

          (a) Payment and Performance. Mortgagor will make due and punctual payment of the Secured Indebtedness. Mortgagor will timely and properly perform and comply with all of the covenants, agreements, and conditions imposed upon it by this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents and will not permit a default to occur hereunder or thereunder. Time shall be of the essence in this Mortgage.

          (b) Title and Permitted Encumbrances. Mortgagor has, in Mortgagor’s own right, and Mortgagor covenants to maintain, lawful, good and marketable title to the Property, is lawfully seized and possessed of the Property and every part thereof, and has the right to convey the same, free and clear of all liens, charges, claims, security interests, and encumbrances except for (i) the matters, if any, set forth under the heading “Permitted Encumbrances” in Exhibit B hereto, which are Permitted Encumbrances only to the extent the same are valid and subsisting and affect the Property, (ii) the liens and security interests evidenced by this Mortgage, (iii) statutory liens for real estate taxes and assessments on the Property which are not yet delinquent, and (iv) other liens and security interests (if any) in favor of Mortgagee (the matters described in the foregoing clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) being herein called the “Permitted Encumbrances”). Mortgagor, and Mortgagor’s successors and assigns, will warrant generally and forever defend title to the Property, subject as aforesaid, to Mortgagee and his successors or substitutes and assigns, against the claims and demands of all persons claiming or to claim the same or any part thereof. Mortgagor will punctually pay, perform, observe and keep all covenants, obligations and conditions in or pursuant to any Permitted Encumbrance and will not modify or permit modification of any Permitted Encumbrance without the prior written consent of Mortgagee. Inclusion of any matter as a Permitted Encumbrance does not constitute approval or waiver by Mortgagee of any existing or future violation or other breach thereof by Mortgagor, by the Property or otherwise. No part of the Property constitutes all or any part of the principal residence of Mortgagor if Mortgagor is an individual. If any right or interest of Mortgagee in the Property or any part thereof shall be endangered or questioned or shall be attacked directly or indirectly, Mortgagee and Mortgagee, or either of them (whether or not named as parties to legal proceedings with respect thereto), are hereby authorized and empowered to take such steps as in their discretion may be proper for the defense of any such legal proceedings or the protection of such right or interest of Mortgagee, including but not limited to the employment of independent

5


counsel, the prosecution or defense of litigation, and the compromise or discharge of adverse claims. All expenditures so made of every kind and character shall be a demand obligation (which obligation Mortgagor hereby promises to pay) owing by Mortgagor to Mortgagee or Mortgagee (as the case may be), and the party (Mortgagee or Mortgagee, as the case may be) making such expenditures shall be subrogated to all rights of the person receiving such payment.

          (c) Taxes and Other Impositions. Mortgagor will pay, or cause to be paid, all taxes, assessments and other charges or levies imposed upon or against or with respect to the Property or the ownership, use, occupancy or enjoyment of any portion thereof, or any utility service thereto, as the same become due and payable, including but not limited to all real estate taxes assessed against the Property or any part thereof, and shall deliver promptly to Mortgagee such evidence of the payment thereof as Mortgagee may require.

          (d) Insurance. Mortgagor shall obtain and maintain at Mortgagor’s sole expense: (1) mortgagee title insurance issued to Mortgagee covering the Premises as required by Mortgagee, without exception for mechanics’ liens; (2) property insurance with respect to all insurable Property, against loss or damage by fire, lightning, windstorm, explosion, hail, tornado and such additional hazards as are presently included in “Special Form” (also known as “all-risk”) coverage and against any and all acts of terrorism and such other insurable hazards as Mortgagee may require, in an amount not less than 100% of the full replacement cost, including the cost of debris removal, without deduction for depreciation and sufficient to prevent Mortgagor and Mortgagee from becoming a coinsurer, such insurance to be in “builder’s risk” completed value (non-reporting) form during and with respect to any construction (other than construction of customary tenant improvements in existing buildings) on the Premises; (3) if and to the extent any portion of the Improvements is, under the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973 (“FDPA”), as it may be amended from time to time, in a Special Flood Hazard Area, within a Flood Zone designated A or V in a participating community, a flood insurance policy in an amount required by Mortgagee, but in no event less than the amount sufficient to meet the requirements of applicable law and the FDPA, as such requirements may from time to time be in effect; (4) general liability insurance, on an “occurrence” basis, against claims for “personal injury” liability, including bodily injury, death or property damage liability, for the benefit of Mortgagor as named insured and Mortgagee as additional insured; (5) statutory workers’ compensation insurance with respect to any work on or about the Premises (including employer’s liability insurance, if required by Mortgagee), covering all employees of Mortgagor and any contractor; (6) if there is a general contractor, during and with respect to any construction (other than construction of customary tenant improvements in existing buildings) on the Premises, commercial general liability insurance, including products and completed operations coverage, and in other respects similar to that described in clause (4) above, for the benefit of the general contractor as named insured and Mortgagor and Mortgagee as additional insureds, in addition to statutory workers’ compensation insurance with respect to any work on or about the Premises (including employer’s liability insurance, if required by Mortgagee), covering all employees of the general contractor any contractor; and (7) such other insurance on the Property and endorsements as may from time to time be required by Mortgagee (including but not limited to soft cost coverage, automobile liability insurance, business interruption insurance or delayed rental insurance, boiler and machinery insurance, earthquake insurance, wind insurance, sinkhole coverage, and/or permit to occupy endorsement) and against other insurable hazards or casualties which at the time are commonly insured against in the case of premises similarly situated, due

6


regard being given to the height, type, construction, location, use and occupancy of buildings and improvements. All insurance policies shall be issued and maintained by insurers, in amounts, with deductibles, limits and retentions, and in forms satisfactory to Mortgagee, and shall require not less than ten (10) days’ prior written notice to Mortgagee of any cancellation for nonpayment of premiums, and not less than thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Mortgagee of any other cancellation or any change of coverage. All insurance companies must be licensed to do business in the state in which the Property is located and must have an A.M. Best Company financial and performance ratings of A-:IX or better. All insurance policies maintained, or caused to be maintained, by Mortgagor with respect to the Property, except for general liability insurance, shall provide that each such policy shall be primary without right of contribution from any other insurance that may be carried by Mortgagor or Mortgagee and that all of the provisions thereof, except the limits of liability, shall operate in the same manner as if there were a separate policy covering each insured. If any insurer which has issued a policy of title, hazard, liability or other insurance required pursuant to this Mortgage or any other Loan Document becomes insolvent or the subject of any petition, case, proceeding or other action pursuant to any Debtor Relief Law, or if in Mortgagee’s reasonable opinion the financial responsibility of such insurer is or becomes inadequate, Mortgagor shall, in each instance promptly upon its discovery thereof or upon the request of Mortgagee therefor, and at Mortgagor’s expense, promptly obtain and deliver to Mortgagee a like policy (or, if and to the extent permitted by Mortgagee, acceptable evidence of insurance) issued by another insurer, which insurer and policy meet the requirements of this Mortgage or such other Loan Document, as the case may be. Without limiting the discretion of Mortgagee with respect to required endorsements to insurance policies, all such policies for loss of or damage to the Property shall contain a standard mortgagee clause (without contribution) naming Mortgagee as mortgagee with loss proceeds payable to Mortgagee notwithstanding (i) any act, failure to act or negligence of or violation of any warranty, declaration or condition contained in any such policy by any named or additional insured; (ii) the occupation or use of the Property for purposes more hazardous than permitted by the terms of any such policy; (iii) any foreclosure or other action by Mortgagee under the Loan Documents; or (iv) any change in title to or ownership of the Property or any portion thereof, such proceeds to be held for application as provided in the Loan Documents. The originals of each initial insurance policy (or to the extent permitted by Mortgagee, a copy of the original policy and such evidence of insurance acceptable to Mortgagee) shall be delivered to Mortgagee at the time of execution of this Mortgage, with all premiums fully paid current, and each renewal or substitute policy (or evidence of insurance) shall be delivered to Mortgagee, with all premiums fully paid current, at least ten (10) days before the termination of the policy it renews or replaces. Mortgagor shall pay all premiums on policies required hereunder as they become due and payable and promptly deliver to Mortgagee evidence satisfactory to Mortgagee of the timely payment thereof. If any loss occurs at any time when Mortgagor has failed to perform Mortgagor’s covenants and agreements in this paragraph with respect to any insurance payable because of loss sustained to any part of the Property whether or not such insurance is required by Mortgagee, Mortgagee shall nevertheless be entitled to the benefit of all insurance covering the loss and held by or for Mortgagor, to the same extent as if it had been made payable to Mortgagee. Upon any foreclosure hereof or transfer of title to the Property in extinguishment of the whole or any part of the Secured Indebtedness, all of Mortgagor’s right, title and interest in and to the insurance policies referred to in this Section (including unearned premiums) and all proceeds payable thereunder shall thereupon vest in the purchaser at foreclosure or other such transferee, to the

7


extent permissible under such policies. Mortgagee shall have the right (but not the obligation) to make proof of loss for, settle and adjust any claim under, and receive the proceeds of, all insurance for loss of or damage to the Property where the loss is estimated by Mortgagee to be $1,000,000 or more, regardless of whether or not such insurance policies are required by Mortgagee, and the expenses incurred by Mortgagee in the adjustment and collection of insurance proceeds shall be a part of the Secured Indebtedness and shall be due and payable to Mortgagee on demand. Mortgagee shall not be, under any circumstances, liable or responsible for failure to collect or exercise diligence in the collection of any of such proceeds or for the obtaining, maintaining or adequacy of any insurance or for failure to see to the proper application of any amount paid over to Mortgagor. Any such proceeds received by Mortgagee shall, after deduction therefrom of all reasonable expenses actually incurred by Mortgagee, including attorneys’ fees, at Mortgagee’s option be (1) released to Mortgagor, or (2) applied (upon compliance with such terms and conditions as may be required by Mortgagee) to repair or restoration, either partly or entirely, of the Property so damaged, or (3) applied to the payment of the Secured Indebtedness in such order and manner as Mortgagee, in its sole discretion, may elect, whether or not due. In any event, the unpaid portion of the Secured Indebtedness shall remain in full force and effect and the payment thereof shall not be excused. Mortgagor shall at all times comply with the requirements of the insurance policies required hereunder and of the issuers of such policies and of any board of fire underwriters or similar body as applicable to or affecting the Property.

          (e) Application of Insurance Proceeds. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in the preceding Section 2.1(d), if the Property is damaged or destroyed and Mortgagee determines that all of the conditions specified hereinafter in this Section have been satisfied, then Mortgagee shall apply the proceeds of insurance (i) first to reimbursing itself for all costs incurred by it in the collection of such proceeds and (ii) second to reimbursing Mortgagor for such actual costs as shall have been incurred by Mortgagor in restoring the Property and shall be approved by Mortgagee. Insurance proceeds shall be applied to such restoration solely if (A) Mortgagee determines that: (i) the Property is capable of being suitably restored in accordance with applicable Legal Requirements to the value, condition, character and general utility existing prior to such damage or destruction, and, in any event, to a Loan to Value Ratio of not greater than 70%, provided that this clause (i) shall not apply to insurance proceeds relating to a casualty for which the gross insurance proceeds do not exceed $1,000,000; (ii) sufficient funds are unconditionally available (from proceeds of insurance and/or from funds of Mortgagor) to enable Mortgagor promptly to commence, and thereafter diligently to prosecute to completion, such restoration, provided that this clause (ii) shall not apply to insurance proceeds relating to a casualty for which the gross insurance proceeds do not exceed $1,000,000; (iii) Mortgagor is not in default or in breach of any obligations under any Loan Document, no uncured Default exists under any Loan Document and no facts or circumstances exist that would constitute a Default with the passage of time or the giving of notice or both; and (iv) neither the validity, enforceability nor priority of the lien of this Mortgage shall be adversely affected; (B) Mortgagor has entered into a written agreement, satisfactory in form and substance to Mortgagee, containing such conditions to disbursements as are employed at the time by Mortgagee for construction loans; (C) Mortgagor has delivered to Mortgagee such security as Mortgagee might have reasonably required to assure completion of restoration in accordance with the standards specified above; and (D) Mortgagor has complied with such further reasonable requirements as Mortgagee might have specified.

8


          (f) Reserve for Insurance, Taxes and Assessments. Upon request of Mortgagee, to secure the payment and performance of the Secured Indebtedness, but not in lieu of such payment and performance, Mortgagor will deposit with Mortgagee a sum equal to real estate taxes, assessments and charges (which charges for the purposes of this paragraph shall include without limitation any recurring charge which could result in a lien against the Property) against the Property for the current year and the premiums for such policies of insurance for the current year, all as estimated by Mortgagee and prorated to the end of the calendar month following the month during which Mortgagee’s request is made, and thereafter will deposit with Mortgagee, on each date when an installment of principal and/or interest is due on the Note, sufficient funds (as estimated from time to time by Mortgagee) to permit Mortgagee to pay at least fifteen (15) days prior to the due date thereof, the next maturing real estate taxes, assessments and charges and premiums for such policies of insurance. Mortgagee shall have the right to rely upon tax information furnished by applicable taxing authorities in the payment of such taxes or assessments and shall have no obligation to make any protest of any such taxes or assessments. Any excess over the amounts required for such purposes shall be held by Mortgagee for future use, applied to any Secured Indebtedness or refunded to Mortgagor, at Mortgagee’s option, and any deficiency in such funds so deposited shall be made up by Mortgagor upon demand of Mortgagee. All such funds so deposited shall bear no interest, may be commingled with the general funds of Mortgagee and shall be applied by Mortgagee toward the payment of such taxes, assessments, charges and premiums when statements therefor are presented to Mortgagee by Mortgagor (which statements shall be presented by Mortgagor to Mortgagee a reasonable time before the applicable amount is due); provided, however, that, if a Default shall have occurred hereunder, such funds may at Mortgagee’s option be applied to the payment of the Secured Indebtedness in the order determined by Mortgagee in its sole discretion, and that Mortgagee may (but shall have no obligation) at any time, in its discretion, apply all or any part of such funds toward the payment of any such taxes, assessments, charges or premiums which are past due, together with any penalties or late charges with respect thereto. The conveyance or transfer of Mortgagor’s interest in the Property for any reason (including without limitation the foreclosure of a subordinate lien or security interest or a transfer by operation of law) shall constitute an assignment or transfer of Mortgagor’s interest in and rights to such funds held by Mortgagee under this paragraph but subject to the rights of Mortgagee hereunder.

          (g) Condemnation. Mortgagor shall notify Mortgagee immediately of any threatened or pending proceeding for condemnation affecting the Property or arising out of damage to the Property, and Mortgagor shall, at Mortgagor’s expense, diligently prosecute any such proceedings. Mortgagee shall have the right (but not the obligation) to participate in any such proceeding and to be represented by counsel of its own choice. Mortgagee shall be entitled to receive all sums which may be awarded or become payable to Mortgagor for the condemnation of the Property, or any part thereof, for public or quasi-public use, or by virtue of private sale in lieu thereof, and any sums which may be awarded or become payable to Mortgagor for injury or damage to the Property. Mortgagor shall, promptly upon request of Mortgagee, execute such additional assignments and other documents as may be necessary from time to time to permit such participation and to enable Mortgagee to collect and receipt for any such sums. All such sums are hereby assigned to Mortgagee, and shall, after deduction therefrom of all reasonable expenses actually incurred by Mortgagee, including attorneys’ fees, at Mortgagee’s option be (1) released to Mortgagor, or (2) applied (upon compliance with such terms and conditions as may be required by Mortgagee) to repair or restoration of the Property so affected, or (3) applied to

9


the payment of the Secured Indebtedness in such order and manner as Mortgagee, in its sole discretion, may elect, whether or not due. In any event the unpaid portion of the Secured Indebtedness shall remain in full force and effect and the payment thereof shall not be excused. Mortgagee shall not be, under any circumstances, liable or responsible for failure to collect or to exercise diligence in the collection of any such sum or for failure to see to the proper application of any amount paid over to Mortgagor. Mortgagee is hereby authorized, in the name of Mortgagor, to execute and deliver valid acquittances for, and to appeal from, any such award, judgment or decree. All costs and expenses (including but not limited to attorneys’ fees) incurred by Mortgagee in connection with any condemnation shall be a demand obligation owing by Mortgagor (which Mortgagor hereby promises to pay) to Mortgagee pursuant to this Mortgage.

          (h) Compliance with Legal Requirements. The Property and the use, operation and maintenance thereof and all activities thereon do and shall at all times comply with all applicable Legal Requirements (hereinafter defined). The Property is not, and shall not be, dependent on any other property or premises or any interest therein other than the Property to fulfill any requirement of any Legal Requirement. Mortgagor shall not, by act or omission, permit any building or other improvement not subject to the lien of this Mortgage to rely on the Property or any interest therein to fulfill any requirement of any Legal Requirement. No improvement upon or use of any part of the Property constitutes a nonconforming use under any zoning law or similar law or ordinance. Mortgagor has obtained and shall preserve in force all requisite zoning, utility, building, health, environmental and operating permits from the governmental authorities having jurisdiction over the Property.

          If Mortgagor receives a notice or claim from any person that the Property, or any use, activity, operation or maintenance thereof or thereon, is not in compliance with any Legal Requirement, Mortgagor will promptly furnish a copy of such notice or claim to Mortgagee. Mortgagor has received no notice and has no knowledge of any such noncompliance. As used in this Mortgage: (i) the term “Legal Requirement” means any Law (hereinafter defined), agreement, covenant, restriction, easement or condition (including, without limitation of the foregoing, any condition or requirement imposed by any insurance or surety company), as any of the same now exists or may be changed or amended or come into effect in the future; and (ii) the term “Law” means any federal, state or local law, statute, ordinance, code, rule, regulation, license, permit, authorization, decision, order, injunction or decree, domestic or foreign.

          (i) Maintenance, Repair and Restoration. Mortgagor will keep the Property in first class order, repair, operating condition and appearance, causing all necessary repairs, renewals, replacements, additions and improvements to be promptly made, and will not allow any of the Property to be misused, abused or wasted or to deteriorate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Mortgagor will not, without the prior written consent of Mortgagee, (i) remove from the Property any fixtures or personal property covered by this Mortgage except such as is replaced by Mortgagor by an article of equal suitability and value, owned by Mortgagor, free and clear of any lien or security interest (except that created by this Mortgage), or (ii) make any structural alteration to the Property or any other alteration thereto which impairs the value thereof. If any act or occurrence of any kind or nature (including any condemnation or any casualty for which insurance was not obtained or obtainable) shall result in damage to or loss or destruction of the Property, Mortgagor shall give prompt notice thereof to Mortgagee and Mortgagor shall promptly, at Mortgagor’s sole cost and expense and regardless of whether insurance or

10


condemnation proceeds (if any) shall be available or sufficient for the purpose, secure the Property as necessary and commence and continue diligently to completion to restore, repair, replace and rebuild the Property as nearly as possible to its value, condition and character immediately prior to the damage, loss or destruction.

          (j) No Other Liens. Mortgagor will not, without the prior written consent of Mortgagee, create, place or permit to be created or placed, or through any act or failure to act, acquiesce in the placing of, or allow to remain, any mortgage, voluntary or involuntary lien, whether statutory, constitutional or contractual, security interest, encumbrance or charge, or conditional sale or other title retention document, against or covering the Property, or any part thereof, other than the Permitted Encumbrances, regardless of whether the same are expressly or otherwise subordinate to the lien or security interest created in this Mortgage, and should any of the foregoing become attached hereafter in any manner to any part of the Property without the prior written consent of Mortgagee, Mortgagor will cause the same to be promptly discharged and released. Mortgagor will own all parts of the Property and will not acquire any fixtures, equipment or other property (including software embedded therein) forming a part of the Property pursuant to a lease, license, security agreement or similar agreement, whereby any party has or may obtain the right to repossess or remove same, without the prior written consent of Mortgagee. If Mortgagee consents to the voluntary grant by Mortgagor of any mortgage, lien, security interest, or other encumbrance (hereinafter called “Subordinate Lien”) covering any of the Property or if the foregoing prohibition is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable as to a Subordinate Lien, any such Subordinate Lien shall contain express covenants to the effect that: (1) the Subordinate Lien is unconditionally subordinate to this Mortgage and all Leases (hereinafter defined); (2) if any action (whether judicial or pursuant to a power of sale) shall be instituted to foreclose or otherwise enforce the Subordinate Lien, no tenant of any of the Leases (hereinafter defined) shall be named as a party defendant, and no action shall be taken that would terminate any occupancy or tenancy without the prior written consent of Mortgagee; (3) Rents (hereinafter defined), if collected by or for the Mortgagee of the Subordinate Lien, shall be applied first to the payment of the Secured Indebtedness then due and expenses incurred in the ownership, operation and maintenance of the Property in such order as Mortgagee may determine, prior to being applied to any indebtedness secured by the Subordinate Lien; (4) written notice of default under the Subordinate Lien and written notice of the commencement of any action (whether judicial or pursuant to a power of sale) to foreclose or otherwise enforce the Subordinate Lien or to seek the appointment of a receiver for all or any part of the Property shall be given to Mortgagee with or immediately after the occurrence of any such default or commencement; and (5) neither the Mortgagee of the Subordinate Lien, nor any purchaser at foreclosure thereunder, nor anyone claiming by, through or under any of them shall succeed to any of Mortgagor’s rights hereunder without the prior written consent of Mortgagee.

          (k) Operation of Property. Mortgagor will operate the Property in a good and workmanlike manner and in accordance with all Legal Requirements and will pay all fees or charges of any kind in connection therewith. Mortgagor will keep the Property occupied so as not to impair the insurance carried thereon. Mortgagor will not use or occupy or conduct any activity on, or allow the use or occupancy of or the conduct of any activity on, the Property in any manner which violates any Legal Requirement or which constitutes a public or private nuisance or which makes void, voidable or cancelable, or increases the premium of, any insurance then in force with respect thereto. Mortgagor will not initiate or permit any zoning

11


reclassification of the Property or seek any variance under existing zoning ordinances applicable to the Property or use or permit the use of the Property in such a manner which would result in such use becoming a nonconforming use under applicable zoning ordinances or other Legal Requirement. Mortgagor will not impose any easement, restrictive covenant or encumbrance upon the Property, execute or file any subdivision plat or condominium declaration affecting the Property or consent to the annexation of the Property to any municipality, without the prior written consent of Mortgagee. Mortgagor will not do or suffer to be done any act whereby the value of any part of the Property may be lessened. Mortgagor will preserve, protect, renew, extend and retain all material rights and privileges granted for or applicable to the Property. Without the prior written consent of Mortgagee, there shall be no drilling or exploration for or extraction, removal or production of any mineral, hydrocarbon, gas, natural element, compound or substance (including sand and gravel) from the surface or subsurface of the Land regardless of the depth thereof or the method of mining or extraction thereof. Mortgagor will cause all debts and liabilities of any character (including without limitation all debts and liabilities for labor, material and equipment (including software embedded therein) and all debts and charges for utilities servicing the Property) incurred in the construction, maintenance, operation and development of the Property to be promptly paid.

          (l) Financial Matters. Mortgagor is solvent after giving effect to all borrowings contemplated by the Loan Documents and no proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law (hereinafter defined) is pending (or, to Mortgagor’s knowledge, threatened) by or against Mortgagor, or any affiliate of Mortgagor, as a debtor. All reports, statements, plans, budgets, applications, agreements and other data and information heretofore furnished or hereafter to be furnished by or on behalf of Mortgagor to Mortgagee in connection with the loan or loans evidenced by the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, all financial statements and financial information) are and will be true, correct and complete in all material respects as of their respective dates and do not and will not omit to state any fact or circumstance necessary to make the statements contained therein not misleading. No material adverse change has occurred since the dates of such reports, statements and other data in the financial condition of Mortgagor or, to Mortgagor’s knowledge, of any tenant under any lease described therein. For the purposes of this paragraph, “Mortgagor” shall also include any person liable directly or indirectly for the Secured Indebtedness or any part thereof and any joint venturer or general partner of Mortgagor.

          (m) Status of Mortgagor; Suits and Claims; Loan Documents. If Mortgagor is a corporation, partnership, limited liability company, or other legal entity, Mortgagor is and will continue to be (i) duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its state of organization, (ii) authorized to do business in, and in good standing in, each state in which the Property is located, and (iii) possessed of all requisite power and authority to carry on its business and to own and operate the Property. Each Loan Document executed by Mortgagor has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by Mortgagor, and the obligations thereunder and the performance thereof by Mortgagor in accordance with their terms are and will continue to be within Mortgagor’s power and authority (without the necessity of joinder or consent of any other person), are not and will not be in contravention of any Legal Requirement or any other document or agreement to which Mortgagor or the Property is subject, and do not and will not result in the creation of any encumbrance against any assets or properties of Mortgagor, or any other person liable, directly or indirectly, for any of the Secured Indebtedness, except as expressly contemplated by the Loan Documents. There is no suit, action, claim, investigation,

12


inquiry, proceeding or demand pending (or, to Mortgagor’s knowledge, threatened) against Mortgagor or against any other person liable directly or indirectly for the Secured Indebtedness or which affects the Property (including, without limitation, any which challenges or otherwise pertains to Mortgagor’s title to the Property) or the validity, enforceability or priority of any of the Loan Documents. There is no judicial or administrative action, suit or proceeding pending (or, to Mortgagor’s knowledge, threatened) against Mortgagor, or against any other person liable directly or indirectly for the Secured Indebtedness, except as has been disclosed in writing to Mortgagee in connection with the loan evidenced by the Note. The Loan Documents constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of Mortgagor enforceable in accordance with their terms, except as the enforceability thereof may be limited by Debtor Relief Laws (hereinafter defined) and except as the availability of certain remedies may be limited by general principles of equity. Mortgagor is not a “foreign person” within the meaning of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, Sections 1445 and 7701 (i.e. Mortgagor is not a non-resident alien, foreign corporation, foreign partnership, foreign trust or foreign estate as those terms are defined therein and in any regulations promulgated thereunder). The loan evidenced by the Note is solely for business and/or investment purposes, and is not intended for personal, family, household or agricultural purposes. Mortgagor further warrants that the proceeds of the Note shall be used for commercial purposes and stipulates that the loan evidenced by the Note shall be construed for all purposes as a commercial loan. Mortgagor’s exact legal name is correctly set forth at the end of this Mortgage. If Mortgagor is not an individual, Mortgagor is an organization of the type and (if not an unregistered entity) is incorporated in or organized under the laws of the state specified in the introductory paragraph of this Mortgage. If Mortgagor is an unregistered entity (including, without limitation, a general partnership) it is organized under the laws of the state specified in the introductory paragraph of this Mortgage. Mortgagor will not cause or permit any change to be made in its name, identity (including its trade name or names), or corporate or partnership structure, unless Mortgagor shall have notified Mortgagee in writing of such change at least thirty (30) days prior to the effective date of such change, and shall have first taken all action required by Mortgagee for the purpose of further perfecting or protecting the lien and security interest of Mortgagee in the Property. In addition, Mortgagor shall not change its corporate or partnership structure without first obtaining the prior written consent of Mortgagee. Mortgagor’s principal place of business and chief executive office, and the place where Mortgagor keeps its books and records, including recorded data of any kind or nature, regardless of the medium of recording including, without limitation, software, writings, plans, specifications and schematics concerning the Property, has for the preceding four months (or, if less, the entire period of the existence of Mortgagor) been and will continue to be (unless Mortgagor notifies Mortgagee of any change in writing at least thirty (30) days prior to the date of such change) the address of Mortgagor set forth at the end of this Mortgage. If Mortgagor is an individual, Mortgagor’s principal residence has for the preceding four months been and will continue to be (unless Mortgagor notifies Mortgagee of any change in writing at least thirty (30) days prior to the date of such change) the address of the principal residence of Mortgagor set forth at the end of this Mortgage. Mortgagor’s organizational identification number, if any, assigned by the state of incorporation or organization is correctly set forth on the first page of this Mortgage. Mortgagor shall promptly notify Mortgagee (i) of any change of its organizational identification number, or (ii) if Mortgagor does not now have an organization identification number and later obtains one, of such organizational identification number.

Mortgagor shall pay all costs connected with any of the foregoing, which shall be a demand obligation owing by Mortgagor (which Mortgagor hereby promises to pay) to Mortgagee pursuant to this Mortgage.

          (p) Fees and Expenses. Without limitation of any other provision of this Mortgage or of any other Loan Document and to the extent not prohibited by applicable law, Mortgagor will pay, and will reimburse to Mortgagee and/or Mortgagee on demand to the extent paid by Mortgagee and/or Mortgagee: (i) all appraisal fees, filing, registration and recording fees, recordation, transfer and other taxes, brokerage fees and commissions, abstract fees, title search or examination fees, title policy and endorsement premiums and fees, uniform commercial code search fees, judgment and tax lien search fees, escrow fees, reasonable attorneys’ fees, reasonable architect fees, reasonable engineer fees, reasonable construction consultant fees, reasonable environmental inspection fees, survey fees, and all other reasonable costs and expenses of every character incurred by Mortgagor or Mortgagee and/or Mortgagee in connection with the preparation of the Loan Documents, the evaluation, closing and funding of the loan evidenced by the Loan Documents, and any and all amendments and supplements to this Mortgage, the Note or any other Loan Documents or any approval, consent, waiver, release or other matter requested or required hereunder or thereunder, or otherwise attributable or chargeable to Mortgagor as owner of the Property; and (ii) all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, incurred or expended in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy, or the defense of any right or remedy or the enforcement of any obligation of Mortgagor, hereunder or under any other Loan Document.

Without limitation, the foregoing indemnities shall apply to each indemnified person with respect to matters which in whole or in part are caused by or arise out of the negligence of such (and/or any other) indemnified person. However, such indemnities shall not apply to a particular indemnified person to the extent that the subject of the indemnification is caused by or arises out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of that indemnified person. Any amount to be paid under this paragraph (p) by Mortgagor to Mortgagee shall be a demand obligation owing by Mortgagor (which Mortgagor hereby promises to pay) to Mortgagee pursuant to this Mortgage. Nothing in this paragraph, elsewhere in this Mortgage or in any other Loan Document shall limit or impair any rights or remedies of Mortgagee (including without limitation any rights of contribution or indemnification) against Mortgagor or any other person under any other provision of this Mortgage, any other Loan Document, any other agreement or any applicable Legal Requirement.

 

 

 

          (ii) As used herein, the term “Indemnified Matters” means any and all claims, demands, liabilities (including strict liability), losses, damages (including consequential damages), causes of action, judgments, penalties, fines, costs and expenses (including without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of attorneys and other professional consultants and experts, and of the investigation and defense of any claim, whether or not such claim is ultimately defeated, and the settlement of any claim or judgment including all value paid or given in settlement) of every kind, known or unknown, foreseeable or unforeseeable, which may be imposed upon, asserted against or incurred or paid by Mortgagee at any time and from time to time, whenever imposed, asserted or incurred, because of, resulting from, in connection with, or arising out of any transaction, act, omission, event or circumstance in any way connected with the Property or with this Mortgage or any other Loan Document, including but not limited to any bodily injury or death or property damage occurring in or upon or in the vicinity of the Property through any cause whatsoever at any time on or before the Release Date (hereinafter defined), any act performed or omitted to be performed hereunder or under any other Loan Document, any breach by Mortgagor of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or condition contained in this Mortgage or in any other Loan Document, any default as defined herein, any claim under or with respect to any Lease (hereinafter defined) or arising under the Environmental Agreement. The term “Release Date” as used herein means the earlier of the following two dates: (i) the date on which the indebtedness and obligations secured hereby have been paid and performed in full and this Mortgage has been released, or (ii) the date on which the lien of this Mortgage is fully and finally foreclosed or a conveyance by deed in lieu of such foreclosure is fully and finally effective, and possession of the Property has been given to the purchaser or grantee free of occupancy and claims to occupancy by Mortgagor and Mortgagor’s heirs, devisees, representatives, successors and assigns; provided, that if such payment, performance, release, foreclosure or conveyance is challenged, in bankruptcy proceedings or otherwise, the Release Date shall be deemed not to have occurred until such challenge is rejected, dismissed or withdrawn with prejudice. The indemnities in this paragraph (p) shall not terminate upon the Release Date or upon the release, foreclosure or other termination of this Mortgage but will survive the Release Date, foreclosure of this Mortgage or conveyance in lieu of foreclosure, the repayment of the Secured Indebtedness, the

Mortgagor will keep accurate books and records in accordance with sound accounting principles in which full, true and correct entries shall be promptly made with respect to the Property and the operation thereof, and will permit all such books and records, and all recorded data of any kind or nature, regardless of the medium of recording including, without limitation, all software, writings, plans, specifications and schematics to be inspected and copied, and the Property to be inspected and photographed, by Mortgagee and its representatives during normal business hours and at any other reasonable times. Without limitation of other or additional requirements in any of the other Loan Documents, Mortgagor will furnish to Mortgagee the financial statements required under the Loan Agreement. Mortgagor will furnish to Mortgagee at Mortgagor’s expense all evidence which Mortgagee may from time to time reasonably request as to compliance with all provisions of the Loan Documents.

Mortgagee may from time to time assign or grant participations in the Secured Indebtedness and Mortgagor consents to the delivery by Mortgagee to any acquirer or prospective acquirer of any interest or participation in or with respect to all or part of the Secured Indebtedness such information as Mortgagee now or hereafter has relating to the Property, Mortgagor, any party obligated for payment of any part of the Secured Indebtedness, any tenant or guarantor under any lease affecting any part of the Property and any agent or guarantor under any management agreement affecting any part of the Property.

          (s) Taxes on Note or Mortgage. Mortgagor will promptly pay all income, franchise and other taxes owing by Mortgagor and any stamp, documentary, recordation and transfer taxes or other taxes (unless such payment by Mortgagor is prohibited by law) which may be required to be paid with respect to the Note, this Mortgage or any other instrument evidencing or securing any of the Secured Indebtedness. In the event of the enactment after this date of any law of any governmental entity applicable to Mortgagee, the Note, the Property or this Mortgage deducting from the value of property for the purpose of taxation any lien or security interest thereon, or imposing upon Mortgagee the payment of the whole or any part of the taxes or assessments or charges or liens herein required to be paid by Mortgagor, or changing in any way the laws relating to the taxation of deeds of trust or mortgages or security agreements or debts secured by deeds of trust or mortgages or security agreements or the interest of the mortgagee or secured party in the property covered thereby, or the manner of collection of such taxes, so as to affect this Mortgage or the Secured Indebtedness or Mortgagee, then, and in any such event, Mortgagor, upon demand by Mortgagee, shall pay such taxes, assessments, charges or liens, or reimburse Mortgagee therefor; provided, however, that if in the opinion of counsel for Mortgagee (i) it might be unlawful to require Mortgagor to make such payment or (ii) the making of such payment might result in the imposition of interest beyond the maximum amount

16


permitted by law, then and in such event, Mortgagee may elect, by notice in writing given to Mortgagor, to declare all of the Secured Indebtedness to be and become due and payable sixty (60) days from the giving of such notice.

          (t) Statement Concerning Note or Mortgage. Mortgagor shall at any time and from time to time furnish within seven (7) days of request by Mortgagee a written statement in such form as may be required by Mortgagee stating that (i) the Note, this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents are valid and binding obligations of Mortgagor, enforceable against Mortgagor in accordance with their terms; (ii) the unpaid principal balance of the Note; (iii) the date to which interest on the Note is paid; (iv) the Note, this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents have not been released, subordinated or modified; and (v) there are no offsets or defenses against the enforcement of the Note, this Mortgage or any other Loan Document.

          (u) Trust Fund; Lien Laws. Mortgagor will receive the advances secured hereby and will hold the right to receive such advances as a trust fund to be applied first for the purpose of paying the “cost of improvement”, as such quoted term is defined in the New York Lien Law) and will apply the same first to the payment of such costs before using any part of the total of the same for any other purpose and, will comply with Section 13 of the New York Lien Law. Mortgagor will indemnify and hold Mortgagee harmless against any loss or liability, cost or expense, including, without limitation, any judgments, reasonable attorney’s fees, costs of appeal bonds and printing costs, arising out of or relating to any proceeding instituted by any claimant alleging a violation by Mortgagor of any applicable lien law including, without limitation, any section of Article 3-A of the New York Lien Law.

          Section 2.2. Performance by Mortgagee on Mortgagor’s Behalf. Mortgagor agrees that, if Mortgagor fails to perform any act or to take any action which under any Loan Document Mortgagor is required to perform or take, or to pay any money which under any Loan Document Mortgagor is required to pay, and whether or not the failure then constitutes a default hereunder or thereunder, and whether or not there has occurred any default or defaults hereunder or the Secured Indebtedness has been accelerated, Mortgagee, in Mortgagor’s name or its own name, may, but shall not be obligated to, perform or cause to be performed such act or take such action or pay such money, and any expenses so incurred by Mortgagee, with interest thereon at the Past Due Rate set forth in the Note, and any money so paid by Mortgagee shall be a demand obligation owing by Mortgagor to Mortgagee (which obligation Mortgagor hereby promises to pay), shall be a part of the indebtedness secured hereby, and Mortgagee, upon making such payment, shall be subrogated to all of the rights of the person, entity or body politic receiving such payment. Mortgagee and its designees shall have the right to enter upon the Property at any time and from time to time for any such purposes. No such payment or performance by Mortgagee shall waive or cure any default or waive any right, remedy or recourse of Mortgagee. Any such payment may be made by Mortgagee in reliance on any statement, invoice or claim without inquiry into the validity or accuracy thereof. Each amount due and owing by Mortgagor to Mortgagee pursuant to this Mortgage shall bear interest, from the date such amount becomes due until paid, at the rate per annum provided in the Note for interest on past due principal owed

17


on the Note but never in excess of the maximum nonusurious amount permitted by applicable law, which interest shall be payable to Mortgagee on demand; and all such amounts, together with such interest thereon, shall automatically and without notice be a part of the indebtedness secured hereby. The amount and nature of any expense by Mortgagee hereunder and the time when paid shall be fully established by the certificate of Mortgagee or any of Mortgagee’s officers or agents.

          Section 2.3. Absence of Obligations of Mortgagee with Respect to Property. Notwithstanding anything in this Mortgage to the contrary, including, without limitation, the definition of “Property” and/or the provisions of Article 3 hereof, (i) to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Property is composed of Mortgagor’s rights, title and interests therein but not Mortgagor’s obligations, duties or liabilities pertaining thereto, (ii) Mortgagee neither assumes nor shall have any obligations, duties or liabilities in connection with any portion of the items described in the definition of “Property” herein, either prior to or after obtaining title to such Property, whether by foreclosure sale, the granting of a deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise, and (iii) Mortgagee may, at any time prior to or after the acquisition of title to any portion of the Property as above described, advise any party in writing as to the extent of Mortgagee’s interest therein and/or expressly disaffirm in writing any rights, interests, obligations, duties and/or liabilities with respect to such Property or matters related thereto. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that Mortgagee shall have no obligations, duties or liabilities prior to or after acquisition of title to any portion of the Property, as lessee under any lease or purchaser or seller under any contract or option unless Mortgagee elects otherwise by written notification.

          Section 2.4. Authorization to File Financing Statements; Power of Attorney. Mortgagor hereby authorizes Mortgagee at any time and from time to time to file any initial financing statements, amendments thereto and continuation statements as authorized by applicable law, required by Mortgagee to establish or maintain the validity, perfection and priority of the security interests granted in this Mortgage. For purposes of such filings, Mortgagor agrees to furnish any information requested by Mortgagee promptly upon request by Mortgagee. Mortgagor also ratifies its authorization for Mortgagee to have filed any like initial financing statements, amendments thereto or continuation statements if filed prior to the date of this Mortgage. Mortgagor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints Mortgagee and any officer or agent of Mortgagee, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of Mortgagor or in Mortgagor’s own name to execute in Mortgagor’s name any such documents and to otherwise carry out the purposes of this Section 2.4, to the extent that Mortgagor’s authorization above is not sufficient. To the extent permitted by law, Mortgagor hereby ratifies all acts said attorney-in-fact shall lawfully do, have done in the past or cause to be done in the future by virtue hereof. This power of attorney is a power coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable.

ARTICLE 3

Assignment of Rents and Leases

          Section 3.1. Assignment. Mortgagor hereby assigns to Mortgagee all Rents (hereinafter defined) and all of Mortgagor’s rights in and under all Leases (hereinafter defined). So long as no Default (hereinafter defined) has occurred, Mortgagor shall have a license (which license shall terminate automatically and without further notice upon the occurrence of a Default) to collect, but not prior to accrual, the Rents under the Leases and, where applicable, subleases, such Rents to be held in trust for Mortgagee, and to otherwise deal with all Leases as permitted by this Mortgage. Each month, provided no Default has occurred, Mortgagor may retain such Rents as were collected that month and held in trust for Mortgagee; provided, however, that all Rents collected by Mortgagor shall be applied solely to the ordinary and necessary expenses of owning and operating the Property or paid to Mortgagee. Upon the revocation of such license, all Rents shall be paid directly to Mortgagee and not through the Mortgagor, all without the necessity of any further action by Mortgagee, including, without limitation, any action to obtain possession of the Land, Improvements or any other portion of the Property or any action for the appointment of a receiver. Mortgagor hereby authorizes and directs the tenants under the Leases to pay Rents to Mortgagee upon written demand by Mortgagee, without further consent of Mortgagor, without any obligation of such tenants to determine whether a Default has in fact occurred and regardless of whether Mortgagee has taken possession of any portion of the Property, and the tenants may rely upon any written statement delivered by Mortgagee to the tenants. Any such payments to Mortgagee shall constitute payments to Mortgagor under the Leases, and Mortgagor hereby irrevocably appoints Mortgagee as its attorney-in-fact to do all things, after a Default, which Mortgagor might otherwise do with respect to the Property and the Leases thereon, including, without limitation, (i) collecting Rents with or without suit and applying the same, less expenses of collection, to any of the obligations secured hereunder or to expenses of operating and maintaining the Property (including reasonable reserves for anticipated expenses), at the option of the Mortgagee, all in such manner as may be determined by Mortgagee, or at the option of Mortgagee, holding the same as security for the payment of the Secured Indebtedness, (ii) leasing, in the name of Mortgagor, the whole or any part of the Property which may become vacant, and (iii) employing agents therefor and paying such agents reasonable compensation for their services. The curing of such Default, unless other Defaults also then exist, shall entitle Mortgagor to recover its aforesaid license to do any such things which Mortgagor might otherwise do with respect to the Property and the Leases thereon and to again collect such Rents. The powers and rights granted in this paragraph shall be in addition to the other remedies herein provided for upon the occurrence of a Default and may be exercised independently of or concurrently with any of said remedies. Nothing in the foregoing shall be construed to impose any obligation upon Mortgagee to exercise any power or right granted in this paragraph or to assume any liability under any Lease of any part of the Property and no liability shall attach to Mortgagee for failure or inability to collect any Rents under any such Lease. The assignment contained in this Section shall become null and void upon the release of this Mortgage. As used herein: (i) “Lease” means each existing or future lease, sublease (to the extent of Mortgagor’s rights thereunder) or other agreement under the terms of which any person has or acquires any right to occupy or use the Property, or any part thereof, or interest therein, and each existing or future guaranty of payment or performance thereunder, and all extensions, renewals, modifications and replacements of each such lease,

Mortgagee shall not be liable for any injury or damage to person or property in or about the Property, or for Mortgagee’s failure to collect or to exercise diligence in collecting Rents, but shall be accountable only for Rents that it shall actually receive. Neither the assignment of Leases and Rents nor enforcement of Mortgagee’s rights regarding Leases and Rents (including collection of Rents) nor possession of the Property by Mortgagee nor Mortgagee’s consent to or approval of any Lease (nor all of the same), shall render Mortgagee liable on any obligation under or with respect to any Lease or constitute affirmation of, or any subordination to, any Lease, occupancy, use or option.

          If Mortgagee seeks or obtains any judicial relief regarding Rents or Leases, the same shall in no way prevent the concurrent or subsequent employment of any other appropriate rights or remedies nor shall same constitute an election of judicial relief for any foreclosure or any other purpose. Mortgagee neither has nor assumes any obligations as lessor or landlord with

21


respect to any Lease. The rights of Mortgagee under this Article 3 shall be cumulative of all other rights of Mortgagee under the Loan Documents or otherwise.

          Reference is hereby made to Section 291-f of the Real Property Law of the State of New York for the purpose of obtaining for Mortgagee the benefits of said Section in connection herewith.

ARTICLE 5

Remedies

          Section 5.1. Certain Remedies. If a Default shall occur, Mortgagee may (but shall have no obligation to) exercise any one or more of the following remedies, without notice (unless notice is required by applicable statute):

          (a) Acceleration. Mortgagee may at any time and from time to time declare any or all of the Secured Indebtedness immediately due and payable and may terminate any and all Swap Transactions. Upon any such declaration, such Secured Indebtedness shall thereupon be immediately due and payable, and such Swap Transactions shall immediately terminate, without presentment, demand, protest, notice of protest, notice of acceleration or of intention to accelerate or any other notice or declaration of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by Mortgagor. Without limitation of the foregoing, upon the occurrence of a default described in clauses (A), (C) or (D) of subparagraph (i) of paragraph (d) of Section 4.1, hereof, all of the Secured Indebtedness shall thereupon be immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest, notice of protest, declaration or notice of acceleration or intention to accelerate, or any other notice, declaration or act of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by Mortgagor.

          (b) Enforcement of Assignment of Rents. In addition to the rights of Mortgagee under Article 3 hereof, prior or subsequent to taking possession of any portion of the Property or taking any action with respect to such possession, Mortgagee may: (1) collect and/or sue for the Rents in Mortgagee’s own name, give receipts and releases therefor, and after deducting all expenses of collection, including attorneys’ fees and expenses, apply the net proceeds thereof to the Secured Indebtedness in such manner and order as Mortgagee may elect and/or to the operation and management of the Property, including the payment of management, brokerage

26


and attorney’s fees and expenses; and (2) require Mortgagor to transfer all security deposits and records thereof to Mortgagee together with original counterparts of the Leases.

          (c) Mortgagee’s Right to Enter and Take Possession, Operate and Apply Income.

 

 

 

          (i) Mortgagee may demand that Mortgagor surrender the actual possession of the Property and upon such demand, Mortgagor shall forthwith surrender same to Mortgagee and, to the extent permitted by law, Mortgagee itself, or by such officers or agents as it may appoint, may enter and take possession of all of the Property and may exclude Mortgagor and its agents and employees wholly therefrom.

 

 

 

          (ii) If Mortgagor shall for any reason fail to surrender or deliver the Property or any part thereof after Mortgagee’s demand, Mortgagee may obtain a judgment or order conferring on Mortgagee the right to immediate possession or requiring the Mortgagor to deliver immediate possession to Mortgagee, to the entry of which judgment or decree the Mortgagor hereby specifically consents.

 

 

 

          (iii) Mortgagee may from time to time: (A) continue and complete construction of, hold, store, use, operate, manage and control the Property and conduct the business thereof; (B) make all reasonably necessary maintenance, repairs, renewals, replacements, additions, betterments and improvements thereto and thereon and purchase or otherwise acquire additional personal property; (C) insure or keep the Property insured; (D) exercise all the rights and powers of the Mortgagor in its name or otherwise with respect to the same; and (E) enter into agreements with others (including, without limitation, new Leases or amendments, extensions, or cancellations to existing Leases) all as Mortgagee from time to time may determine in its sole discretion. Mortgagor hereby constitutes and irrevocably appoints Mortgagee its true and lawful attorney-in-fact, which appointment is coupled with an interest, with full power of substitution, and empowers said attorney or attorneys in the name of Mortgagor, but at the option of said attorney-in-fact, to do any and all acts and execute any and all agreements that Mortgagee may deem necessary or proper to implement and perform any and all of the foregoing.

          (d) Uniform Commercial Code. Mortgagee may exercise any or all of its rights and remedies under the Uniform Commercial Code as adopted by the State of New York as in effect from time to time, (or under the Uniform Commercial Code in force from time to time in any other state to the extent the same is applicable law) or other applicable law as well as all other rights and remedies possessed by Mortgagee, all of which shall be cumulative. Mortgagee is hereby authorized and empowered to enter the Property or other place where the collateral may be located without legal process, and to take possession of such personal property without notice or demand, which hereby are waived to the maximum extent permitted by the laws of the State of New York. Upon demand by Mortgagee, Mortgagor shall make such personal property available to Mortgagee at a place reasonably convenient to Mortgagee. Mortgagee may proceed under the Uniform Commercial Code as to all or any part of such personal property, and in conjunction therewith may exercise all of the rights, remedies and powers of a secured creditor under the Uniform Commercial Code. Any notification required by the Uniform Commercial Code shall be deemed reasonably and properly given if sent in accordance with the Notice provisions of this Mortgage at least ten (10) days before any sale or other disposition of such

27


personal property. Mortgagee may choose to dispose of some or all of the property, in any combination consisting of both personal property and Property, in one or more public or private sales to be held in accordance with the Law and procedures applicable to real property, as permitted by Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code. Mortgagor agrees that such a sale of such personal property together with Property constitutes a commercially reasonable sale of such personal property.

          (e) Lawsuits. Mortgagee may proceed by a suit or suits in equity or at law, whether for collection of the indebtedness secured hereby, the specific performance of any covenant or agreement herein contained or in aid of the execution of any power herein granted, or for any foreclosure hereunder or for the sale of the Property under the judgment or decree of any court or courts of competent jurisdiction. Mortgagor hereby assents to the passage of a decree for the sale of the Property by any equity court having jurisdiction.

          (f) Foreclosure. Mortgagee may:

 

 

 

          (1) sell the Mortgaged Property to the extent permitted and pursuant to the procedures provided by law (including, without limitation, in accordance with Article 14 of the New York Real Property Actions and Proceedings Law, regarding which Mortgagor hereby consents and agrees that notices thereunder (including notices of sale) may be given to Mortgagor in any of the manners specified for the giving of notices set forth in Section 6.13, and all estate, right, title and interest, claim and demand thereof, at one (1) or more sales as an entity or in parcels or parts, and at such time and place upon such terms and after such notice thereof as may be required or permitted by law; or

 

 

 

          (2) institute proceedings for the complete or partial foreclosure hereof; or

 

 

 

          (3) take such steps to protect and enforce its rights whether by action, suit or proceeding in equity or at law for the specific performance of any covenant, condition or agreement in the Note, the Loan Agreement or herein, or in aid of the execution of any power herein granted, or for any foreclosure hereunder, or for the enforcement of any other appropriate legal or equitable remedy or otherwise as Mortgagee shall elect.

          Any sale made hereunder may be as an entirety or in such parcels as Mortgagee may request. To the extent permitted by applicable law, any sale may be adjourned by announcement at the time and place appointed for such sale without further notice except as may be required by law. If the proceeds of such sale of less than the whole of the Property shall be less than the aggregate of the Secured Indebtedness, this Mortgage and the lien hereof shall remain in full force and effect as to the unsold portion of the Property just as though no sale had been made and the rights of Mortgagee to foreclose hereunder shall also apply to any future sales. A sale may cover not only the Property but also personal property and other interests which are a part of the Property, or any part thereof, as a unit and as a part of a single sale, or the sale may be of any part of the Property separately from the remainder of the Property. After each sale, the Mortgagee shall make to the purchaser or purchasers at such sale good and sufficient conveyances, conveying the property so sold to the purchaser or purchasers in fee simple, subject to the Permitted Encumbrances (and to such leases and other matters, if any), and shall receive the proceeds of said sale or sales and apply the same as herein provided. In the event any sale

28


hereunder is not completed or is defective in the opinion of Mortgagee, such sale shall not exhaust the rights hereunder and Mortgagee shall have the right to cause a subsequent sale or sales to be made hereunder. Any and all statements of fact or other recitals made in any deed or deeds or other conveyances given by the Mortgagee as to nonpayment of the Secured Indebtedness or as to the occurrence of any default, or as to Mortgagee’s having declared all of said indebtedness to be due and payable, or as to the request to sell, or as to notice of time, place and terms of sale and the properties to be sold having been duly given, or as to any other act or thing having been duly done by Mortgagee shall be taken as prima facie evidence of the truth of the facts so stated and recited.

          (g) Receiver. Mortgagee may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction to have a receiver appointed to enter upon and take possession of the Property, collect the Rents therefrom and apply the same as the court may direct, such receiver to have all of the rights and powers permitted under the laws of the State of New York. To the extent permitted by law, the right of the appointment of such receiver shall be a matter of strict right without regard to the value or the occupancy of the Property or the solvency or insolvency of Mortgagor. The expenses, including receiver’s fees, attorneys’ fees, costs and agent’s commission incurred pursuant to the powers herein contained, together with interest thereon at the default rate under the Note, shall be secured hereby and shall be due and payable by Mortgagor immediately without notice or demand. Notwithstanding the appointment of any receiver or other custodian, Mortgagee shall be entitled as pledgee to the possession and control of any cash or deposits at the time held by, payable, or deliverable under the terms of this Mortgage to the Mortgagee, and the Mortgagee shall have the right to offset the unpaid Secured Indebtedness against any such cash or deposits in such order as Mortgagee may elect.

          (h) Termination of Commitment to Lend. Mortgagee may terminate any commitment or obligation to lend or disburse funds under any Loan Document or enter into any other credit arrangement to or for the benefit of Mortgagor.

          (i) Other Rights and Remedies. Mortgagee may exercise any and all other rights and remedies which Mortgagee may have under the Loan Documents, or at law or in equity or otherwise.

          Section 5.2. Application of Proceeds. Unless otherwise provided by applicable Law, all proceeds from the sale of the Property or any part thereof pursuant to the rights and remedies set forth in this Article 5 and any other proceeds received by Mortgagee from the exercise of any of its other rights and remedies hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall be applied first to pay all Expenses and next in reduction of the other Secured Indebtedness, in such manner and order as Mortgagee may elect.

          Section 5.3. Remedies Cumulative and Concurrent. No right, power or remedy of Mortgagee as provided in the Note, this Mortgage, or the other Loan Documents is intended to be exclusive of any other right, power, or remedy of Mortgagee, but each and every such right, power and remedy shall be cumulative and concurrent and in addition to any other right, power or remedy available to Mortgagee now or hereafter existing at law or in equity and may be pursued separately, successively or together against Mortgagor, or any endorser, co-maker, surety or guarantor of the Secured Indebtedness, or the Property or any part thereof, or any one

29


or more of them, at the sole discretion of Mortgagee. The failure of Mortgagee to exercise any such right, power or remedy shall in no event be construed as a waiver or release thereof.

          Section 5.4. Waiver, Delay or Omission. No waiver of any Default hereunder shall extend to or affect any subsequent or any other Default then existing, or impair any rights, powers or remedies consequent thereon, and no delay or omission of Mortgagee to exercise any right, power or remedy shall be construed to waive any such Default or to constitute acquiescence therein.

          Section 5.5. Credit of Mortgagee. To the maximum extent permitted by the laws of the State of New York, upon any sale made under or by virtue of this Article, Mortgagee may bid for and acquire the Property, or any part thereof, and in lieu of paying cash therefor may apply to the purchase price, any portion of or all of the unpaid Secured Indebtedness in such order as Mortgagee may elect.

          Section 5.6. Sale. Any sale or sales made under or by virtue of this Article shall operate to divest all the estate, right, title, interest, claim and demand whatsoever at law or in equity, of the Mortgagor and all persons, except tenants pursuant to Leases approved by Mortgagee, claiming by, through or under Mortgagor in and to the properties and rights so sold, whether sold to Mortgagee or to others.

          Section 5.7. Proofs of Claim. In the case of any receivership, insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition, seizure of the Property by any Governmental Authority, or other judicial proceedings affecting the Mortgagor, any endorser, co-maker, surety, or guarantor of the Secured Indebtedness, or any of their respective properties, the Mortgagee, to the extent permitted by law, shall be entitled to file such proofs of claim and other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have its claim allowed in such proceedings for the entire unpaid Secured Indebtedness at the date of the institution of such proceedings, and for any additional amounts which may become due and payable after such date.

          Section 5.8. Waiver of Redemption, Notice, Marshalling, Etc. Mortgagor hereby waives and releases, for itself and anyone claiming through, by, or under it, to the maximum extent permitted by the laws of the State of New York:

 

 

 

          (i) all benefit that might accrue to Mortgagor by virtue of any present or future law exempting the Property, or any part of the proceeds arising from any sale thereof, from attachment, levy or sale on execution, or providing for any appraisement, valuation, stay of execution, exemption from civil process, redemption or extension of time for payment,

 

 

 

          (ii) unless specifically required herein, all notices of default, or Mortgagee’s actual exercise of any option or remedy under the Loan Documents, or otherwise, and

 

 

 

          (iii) any right to have the Property marshaled.

          Section 5.9. Discontinuance of Proceedings. If Mortgagee shall have proceeded to enforce any right under any Loan Document and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, then except as may be provided in any written agreement between

30


Mortgagor and Mortgagee providing for the discontinuance or abandonment of such proceedings, Mortgagor and Mortgagee shall be restored to their former positions and the rights, remedies and powers of Mortgagee shall continue as if no such proceedings had been instituted.

          Section 5.10. Mortgagee’s Actions. Mortgagee may, at any time without notice to any person and without consideration, do or refrain from doing any or all of the following actions, and neither the Mortgagor, any endorser, co-maker, surety or guarantor of the Secured Indebtedness, nor any other person (hereinafter in this Section collectively referred to as the “Obligor”) now or hereafter liable for the payment and performance of the Secured Indebtedness shall be relieved from the payment and performance thereof, unless specifically released in writing by Mortgagee: (a) renew, extend or modify the terms of the Note, this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents, or any of them; (b) forbear or extend the time for the payment or performance of any or all of the Secured Indebtedness; (c) apply payments by any Obligor to the reduction of the unpaid Secured Indebtedness in such manner, in such amounts, and at such times and in such order and priority as Mortgagee may see fit; (d) release any Obligor; (e) substitute or release in whole or in part the Property or any other collateral or any portion thereof now or hereafter held as security for the Secured Indebtedness without affecting, disturbing or impairing in any manner whatsoever the validity and priority of the lien of this Mortgage upon the Property which is not released or substituted, or the validity and priority of any security interest of the Mortgagee in such other collateral which is not released or substituted; (f) subordinate the lien of this Mortgage or the lien of any other security interest in any other collateral now or hereafter held as security for the Secured Indebtedness; (g) join in the execution of a plat or replat of the Land (provided, however, notwithstanding the foregoing, Mortgagee will join in such plat or replat of the Land so long as such plat or replat is acceptable to Mortgagee); (h) join in and consent to the filing of a declaration of condominium or declaration of restrictive covenants regarding all or any part of the Land; (i) consent to the granting of any easement on the Land; and (j) generally deal with any obligor or any other party as Mortgagee may see fit.

ARTICLE 6

Miscellaneous

          Section 6.1. Scope of Mortgage. This Mortgage is a Mortgage of both real and personal property, a security agreement, an assignment of rents and leases, a financing statement and fixture filing and a collateral assignment, and also covers proceeds and fixtures.

          Section 6.2. Effective as a Financing Statement. This Mortgage shall be effective as a financing statement filed as a fixture filing with respect to all fixtures included within the Property and is to be filed for record in the real estate records of each county where any part of the Property (including said fixtures) is situated. This Mortgage shall also be effective as a financing statement covering as-extracted collateral (including oil and gas), accounts and general

31


intangibles under the New York Uniform Commercial Code, as in effect from time to time, and the Uniform Commercial Code, as in effect from time to time, in any other state where the Property is situated which will be financed at the wellhead or minehead of the wells or mines located on the Property and is to be filed for record in the real estate records of each county where any part of the Property is situated. This Mortgage shall also be effective as a financing statement covering any other Property and may be filed in any other appropriate filing or recording office. The mailing address of Mortgagor and the Mortgagee are set forth in the preamble of this Mortgage and the address of Mortgagee from which information concerning the security interests hereunder may be obtained is the address of Mortgagee set forth at the end of this Mortgage. A carbon, photographic or other reproduction of this Mortgage or of any financing statement relating to this Mortgage shall be sufficient as a financing statement for any of the purposes referred to in this Section.

          Section 6.3. Notice to Account Debtors. In addition to the rights granted elsewhere in this Mortgage, Mortgagee may at any time notify the account debtors or obligors of any accounts, chattel paper, general intangibles, negotiable instruments or other evidences of indebtedness included in the Collateral to pay Mortgagee directly.

          Section 6.4. Waiver by Mortgagee. Mortgagee may at any time and from time to time by a specific writing intended for the purpose: (a) waive compliance by Mortgagor with any covenant herein made by Mortgagor to the extent and in the manner specified in such writing; (b) consent to Mortgagor’s doing any act which hereunder Mortgagor is prohibited from doing, or to Mortgagor’s failing to do any act which hereunder Mortgagor is required to do, to the extent and in the manner specified in such writing; (c) release any part of the Property or any interest therein from the lien and security interest of this Mortgage, without the joinder of Mortgagee; or (d) release any party liable, either directly or indirectly, for the Secured Indebtedness or for any covenant herein or in any other Loan Document, without impairing or releasing the liability of any other party. No such act shall in any way affect the rights or powers of Mortgagee or Mortgagee hereunder except to the extent specifically agreed to by Mortgagee in such writing.

          Section 6.5. No Impairment of Security. The lien, security interest and other security rights of Mortgagee hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall not be impaired by any indulgence, moratorium or release granted by Mortgagee including, but not limited to, any renewal, extension or modification which Mortgagee may grant with respect to any Secured Indebtedness, or any surrender, compromise, release, renewal, extension, exchange or substitution which Mortgagee may grant in respect of the Property, or any part thereof or any interest therein, or any release or indulgence granted to any endorser, guarantor or surety of any Secured Indebtedness. The taking of additional security by Mortgagee shall not release or impair the lien, security interest or other security rights of Mortgagee hereunder or affect the liability of Mortgagor or of any endorser, guarantor or surety, or improve the right of any junior lien Mortgagee in the Property (without implying hereby Mortgagee’s consent to any junior lien).

          Section 6.6. Acts Not Constituting Waiver by Mortgagee. Mortgagee may waive any default without waiving any other prior or subsequent default. Mortgagee may remedy any default without waiving the default remedied. Neither failure by Mortgagee to exercise, nor delay by Mortgagee in exercising, nor discontinuance of the exercise of any right, power or remedy (including but not limited to the right to accelerate the maturity of the Secured

32


Indebtedness or any part thereof) upon or after any default shall be construed as a waiver of such default or as a waiver of the right to exercise any such right, power or remedy at a later date. No single or partial exercise by Mortgagee of any right, power or remedy hereunder shall exhaust the same or shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof, and every such right, power or remedy hereunder may be exercised at any time and from time to time. No modification or waiver of any provision hereof nor consent to any departure by Mortgagor therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Mortgagee and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance, for the purpose for which given and to the extent therein specified. No notice to nor demand on Mortgagor in any case shall of itself entitle Mortgagor to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. Remittances in payment of any part of the Secured 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 Mortgagee 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 practice of the collecting bank or banks. Acceptance by Mortgagee of any payment in an amount less than the amount then due on any Secured Indebtedness shall be deemed an acceptance on account only and shall not in any way excuse the existence of a default hereunder notwithstanding any notation on or accompanying such partial payment to the contrary.

          Section 6.7. Mortgagor’s Successors. If the ownership of the Property or any part thereof becomes vested in a person other than Mortgagor, Mortgagee may, without notice to Mortgagor, deal with such successor or successors in interest with reference to this Mortgage and to the Secured Indebtedness in the same manner as with Mortgagor, without in any way vitiating or discharging Mortgagor’s liability hereunder or for the payment of the indebtedness or performance of the obligations secured hereby. No transfer of the Property, no forbearance on the part of Mortgagee, and no extension of the time for the payment of the Secured Indebtedness given by Mortgagee shall operate to release, discharge, modify, change or affect, in whole or in part, the liability of Mortgagor hereunder for the payment of the indebtedness or performance of the obligations secured hereby or the liability of any other person hereunder for the payment of the indebtedness secured hereby. Each Mortgagor agrees that it shall be bound by any modification of this Mortgage or any of the other Loan Documents made by Mortgagee and any subsequent owner of the Property, with or without notice to such Mortgagor, and no such modifications shall impair the obligations of such Mortgagor under this Mortgage or any other Loan Document. Nothing in this Section or elsewhere in this Mortgage shall be construed to imply Mortgagee’s consent to any transfer of the Property.

          Section 6.8. Place of Payment. All Secured Indebtedness which may be owing hereunder at any time by Mortgagor shall be payable at the place designated in the Note (or if no such designation is made, at the address of Mortgagee indicated at the end of this Mortgage).

          Section 6.9. Subrogation to Existing Liens; Vendor’s Lien. To the extent that proceeds of the Note are used to pay indebtedness secured by any outstanding lien, security interest, charge or prior encumbrance against the Property, such proceeds have been advanced by Mortgagee at Mortgagor’s request, and Mortgagee shall be subrogated to any and all rights, security interests and liens owned by any owner or Mortgagee of such outstanding liens, security interests, charges or encumbrances, however remote, irrespective of whether said liens, security

33


interests, charges or encumbrances are released, and all of the same are recognized as valid and subsisting and are renewed and continued and merged herein to secure the Secured Indebtedness, but the terms and provisions of this Mortgage shall govern and control the manner and terms of enforcement of the liens, security interests, charges and encumbrances to which Mortgagee is subrogated hereunder. It is expressly understood that, in consideration of the payment of such indebtedness by Mortgagee, Mortgagor hereby waives and releases all demands and causes of action for offsets and payments in connection with the said indebtedness. If all or any portion of the proceeds of the loan evidenced by the Note or of any other secured indebtedness has been advanced for the purpose of paying the purchase price for all or a part of the Property, no vendor’s lien is waived; and Mortgagee shall have, and is hereby granted, a vendor’s lien on the Property as cumulative additional security for the secured indebtedness. Mortgagee may foreclose under this Mortgage or under the vendor’s lien without waiving the other or may foreclose under both.

          Section 6.10. Application of Payments to Certain Indebtedness. If any part of the Secured Indebtedness cannot be lawfully secured by this Mortgage or if any part of the Property cannot be lawfully subject to the lien and security interest hereof to the full extent of such indebtedness, then all payments made shall be applied on said indebtedness first in discharge of that portion thereof which is not secured by this Mortgage.

          Section 6.11. Nature of Loan; Compliance with Usury Laws. The loan evidenced by the Note is being made solely for the purpose of carrying on or acquiring a business or commercial enterprise. It is the intent of Mortgagor and Mortgagee and all other parties to the Loan Documents to conform to and contract in strict compliance with applicable usury law from time to time in effect. All agreements between Mortgagee and Mortgagor (or any other party liable with respect to any indebtedness under the Loan Documents) are hereby limited by the provisions of this Section which shall override and control all such agreements, whether now existing or hereafter arising. In no way, nor in any event or contingency (including but not limited to prepayment, default, demand for payment, or acceleration of the maturity of any obligation), shall the interest taken, reserved, contracted for, charged, chargeable, or received under this Mortgage, the Note or any other Loan Document or otherwise, exceed the maximum nonusurious amount permitted by applicable law (the “Maximum Amount”). If, from any possible construction of any document, interest would otherwise be payable in excess of the Maximum Amount, any such construction shall be subject to the provisions of this Section and such document shall ipso facto be automatically reformed and the interest payable shall be automatically reduced to the Maximum Amount, without the necessity of execution of any amendment or new document. If Mortgagee shall ever receive anything of value which is characterized as interest under applicable law and which would apart from this provision be in excess of the Maximum Amount, an amount equal to the amount which would have been excessive interest shall, without penalty, be applied to the reduction of the principal amount owing on the Secured Indebtedness in the inverse order of its maturity and not to the payment of interest, or refunded to Mortgagor or the other payor thereof if and to the extent such amount which would have been excessive exceeds such unpaid principal. The right to accelerate maturity of the Note or any other Secured Indebtedness does not include the right to accelerate any interest which has not otherwise accrued on the date of such acceleration, and Mortgagee does not intend to charge or receive any unearned interest in the event of acceleration. All interest paid or agreed to be paid to Mortgagee shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law,

34


be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full stated term (including any renewal or extension) of such indebtedness so that the amount of interest on account of such indebtedness does not exceed the Maximum Amount. As used in this Section, the term “applicable law” shall mean the laws of the State of New York or the federal laws of the United States applicable to this transaction, whichever laws allow the greater interest, as such laws now exist or may be changed or amended or come into effect in the future.

          Section 6.12. Releases.

               (a) Release of Mortgage. If all of the Secured Indebtedness is paid as the same becomes due and payable and all of the covenants, warranties, undertakings and agreements made in this Mortgage are kept and performed, and all Swap Transactions and all other obligations, if any, of Mortgagee for further advances have been terminated, then, and in that event only, all rights under this Mortgage shall terminate (except to the extent expressly provided herein with respect to indemnifications, representations and warranties and other rights which are to continue following the release hereof) and the Property shall become wholly clear of the liens, security interests, conveyances and assignments evidenced hereby, and such liens and security interests shall be released by Mortgagee in due form at Mortgagor’s cost. Without limitation, all provisions herein for indemnity of Mortgagee or Mortgagee shall survive discharge of the Secured Indebtedness, the termination of any and all Swap Transactions and any foreclosure, release or termination of this Mortgage.

               (b) Partial Releases; No Release in Default. Partial releases of the lien of this Mortgage shall be made in accordance with the terms and provisions of Exhibit C attached hereto and by this reference made a part hereof, or in accordance with such other terms and conditions as may subsequently be agreed to by Mortgagee. If no such Exhibit C is attached hereto, then there are no terms and provisions for partial releases, to which Mortgagee and Mortgagor have agreed at this time. In any event, no partial release shall be sought, requested or required if any Default has occurred which has not been cured.

               (c) Effect of Partial Release. Mortgagee may, regardless of consideration, cause the release of any part of the Property from the lien of this Mortgage without in any manner affecting or impairing the lien or priority of this Mortgage as to the remainder of the Property.

               (d) Release Fee. If permitted by applicable law Mortgagor shall pay to Mortgagee, at the time of each partial or complete release of the lien of this Mortgage, a release fee in the amount of $25.00 if the release instrument is delivered to Mortgagee for execution or $50.00, if Mortgagee is required to prepare the release instrument. In addition, Mortgagor shall pay to Mortgagee a fee in the amount of $25.00 for each other document or instrument which Mortgagor requires the Mortgagee to execute.

          Section 6.13. Notices. All notices, requests, consents, demands and other communications required or which any party desires to give hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be in writing and, unless otherwise specifically provided in such other Loan Document, shall be deemed sufficiently given or furnished if delivered by personal delivery, by nationally recognized overnight courier service, or by registered or certified United States mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the party to whom directed at the addresses specified in this

35


Mortgage (unless changed by similar notice in writing given by the particular party whose address is to be changed) or by facsimile. Any such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been given either at the time of personal delivery or, in the case of courier or mail, as of the date of first attempted delivery at the address and in the manner provided herein, or, in the case of facsimile, upon receipt; provided that, service of a notice required by any applicable statute shall be considered complete when the requirements of that statute are met. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no notice of change of address shall be effective except upon receipt. This Section shall not be construed in any way to affect or impair any waiver of notice or demand provided in any Loan Document or to require giving of notice or demand to or upon any person in any situation or for any reason.

          Section 6.14. Invalidity of Certain Provisions. A determination that any provision of this Mortgage is unenforceable or invalid shall not affect the enforceability or validity of any other provision and the determination that the application of any provision of this Mortgage to any person or circumstance is illegal or unenforceable shall not affect the enforceability or validity of such provision as it may apply to other persons or circumstances.

          Section 6.15. Gender; Titles; Construction. Within this Mortgage, words of any gender shall be held and construed to include any other gender, and words in the singular number shall be held and construed to include the plural, unless the context otherwise requires. Titles appearing at the beginning of any subdivisions hereof are for convenience only, do not constitute any part of such subdivisions, and shall be disregarded in construing the language contained in such subdivisions. The use of the words “herein,” “hereof,” “hereunder” and other similar compounds of the word “here” shall refer to this entire Mortgage and not to any particular Article, Section, paragraph or provision. The term “person” and words importing persons as used in this Mortgage shall include firms, associations, partnerships (including limited partnerships), joint ventures, trusts, corporations, limited liability companies and other legal entities, including public or governmental bodies, agencies or instrumentalities, as well as natural persons.

          Section 6.16. Reporting Compliance. Mortgagor agrees to comply with any and all reporting requirements applicable to the transaction evidenced by the Note and secured by this Mortgage which are set forth in any law, statute, ordinance, rule, regulation, order or determination of any governmental authority, including but not limited to The International Investment Survey Act of 1976, The Agricultural Foreign Investment Disclosure Act of 1978, The Foreign Investment in Real Property Tax Act of 1980 and the Tax Reform Act of 1984 and further agrees upon request of Mortgagee to furnish Mortgagee with evidence of such compliance.

          Section 6.17. Mortgagee’s Consent. Except where otherwise expressly provided herein, in any instance hereunder where the approval, consent or the exercise of judgment of Mortgagee is required or requested, (a) the granting or denial of such approval or consent and the exercise of such judgment shall be within the sole discretion of Mortgagee, and Mortgagee shall not, for any reason or to any extent, be required to grant such approval or consent or exercise such judgment in any particular manner, regardless of the reasonableness of either the request or Mortgagee’s judgment, and (b) no approval or consent of Mortgagee shall be deemed to have been given

36


except by a specific writing intended for the purpose and executed by an authorized representative of Mortgagee.

          Section 6.18. Mortgagor. Unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, as used in this Mortgage, “Mortgagor” means the Mortgagors named in Section 1.1 hereof or any of them. The obligations of Mortgagor hereunder shall be joint and several. If any Mortgagor, or any signatory who signs on behalf of any Mortgagor, is a corporation, partnership or other legal entity, Mortgagor and any such signatory, and the person or persons signing for it, represent and warrant to Mortgagee that this instrument is executed, acknowledged and delivered by Mortgagor’s duly authorized representatives. If Mortgagor is an individual, no power of attorney granted by Mortgagor herein shall terminate on Mortgagor’s disability.

          Section 6.19. Execution; Recording. This Mortgage has been executed in several counterparts, all of which are identical, and all of which counterparts together shall constitute one and the same instrument. The date or dates reflected in the acknowledgments hereto indicate the date or dates of actual execution of this Mortgage, but such execution is as of the date shown on the first page hereof, and for purposes of identification and reference the date of this Mortgage shall be deemed to be the date reflected on the first page hereof. Mortgagor will cause this Mortgage and all amendments and supplements thereto and substitutions therefor and all financing statements and continuation statements relating thereto to be recorded, filed, re-recorded and refiled in such manner and in such places as or Mortgagee shall reasonably request and will pay all such recording, filing, re-recording and refiling taxes, fees and other charges.

          Section 6.20. Successors and Assigns. The terms, provisions, covenants and conditions hereof shall be binding upon Mortgagor, and the heirs, devisees, representatives, successors and assigns of Mortgagor, and shall inure to the benefit of Mortgagee and shall constitute covenants running with the Land. All references in this Mortgage to Mortgagor shall be deemed to include all such heirs, devisees, representatives, successors and assigns of Mortgagor.

          Section 6.21. Modification or Termination. The Loan Documents may only be modified or terminated by a written instrument or instruments intended for that purpose and executed by the party against which enforcement of the modification or termination is asserted. Any alleged modification or termination which is not so documented shall not be effective as to any party.

          Section 6.22. No Partnership, Etc. The relationship between Mortgagee and Mortgagor is solely that of mortgagee and mortgagor. Mortgagee has no fiduciary or other special relationship with Mortgagor. Nothing contained in the Loan Documents is intended to create any partnership, joint venture, association or special relationship between Mortgagor and Mortgagee or in any way make Mortgagee a co-principal with Mortgagor with reference to the Property. All agreed contractual duties between or among Mortgagee and Mortgagor and are set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents and any additional implied covenants or duties are hereby disclaimed. Any inferences to the contrary of any of the foregoing are hereby expressly negated.

          Section 6.23. Intentionally Omitted.

37


          Section 6.24. Applicable Law. THIS MORTGAGE, AND ITS VALIDITY, ENFORCEMENT AND INTERPRETATION, SHALL BE GOVERNED BY NEW YORK LAW AND CONSTRUED, INTERPRETED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND PURSUANT TO THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (WITHOUT REGARD TO ANY CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES) AND APPLICABLE UNITED STATES FEDERAL LAW, EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE REQUIRED BY MANDATORY PROVISIONS OF LAW AND EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THAT REMEDIES PROVIDED BY THE LAWS OF ANY JURISDICTION OTHER THAN THE STATE OF NEW YORK ARE GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF SUCH OTHER JURISDICTION.

          Section 6.25. Entire Agreement. The Loan Documents constitute the entire understanding and agreement between Mortgagor and Mortgagee with respect to the transactions arising in connection with the Secured Indebtedness and supersede all prior written or oral understandings and agreements between Mortgagor and Mortgagee with respect to the matters addressed in the Loan Documents. Mortgagor hereby acknowledges that, except as incorporated in writing in the Loan Documents, there are not, and were not, and no persons are or were authorized by Mortgagee to make, any representations, understandings, stipulations, agreements or promises, oral or written, with respect to the matters addressed in the Loan Documents.

          Section 6.26. Forum. Mortgagor hereby irrevocably submits generally and unconditionally for itself and in respect of its property to the jurisdiction of any state court or any United States federal court sitting in the State of New York and to the jurisdiction of any state court or any United States federal court sitting in the state in which any of the Property is located, over any Dispute. Mortgagor hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, any objection that Mortgagor may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue in any such court and any claim that any such court is an inconvenient forum. Mortgagor hereby agrees and consents that, in addition to any methods of service of process provided for under applicable law, all service of process in any such suit, action or proceeding in any state court or any United States federal court sitting in the State of New York may be made by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, directed to Mortgagor at its address for notice set forth in this Mortgage, or at a subsequent address of which Mortgagee received actual notice from Mortgagor in accordance with the notice section of this Mortgage, and service so made shall be complete five (5) days after the same shall have been so mailed. Nothing herein shall affect the right of Mortgagee to serve process in any manner permitted by Law or limit the right of Mortgagee to bring proceedings against Mortgagor in any other court or jurisdiction.

          Section 6.27. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. WITHOUT INTENDING IN ANY WAY TO LIMIT THE PARTIES’ AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE ANY DISPUTE AS SET FORTH IN THIS MORTGAGE, TO THE EXTENT ANY DISPUTE IS NOT SUBMITTED TO ARBITRATION OR IS DEEMED BY THE ARBITRATOR OR BY ANY COURT WITH JURISDICTION TO BE NOT ARBITRABLE OR NOT REQUIRED TO BE ARBITRATED, MORTGAGOR AND MORTGAGEE WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY SUCH DISPUTE AND ANY ACTION ON SUCH DISPUTE. THIS WAIVER IS KNOWINGLY, WILLINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY MADE BY MORTGAGOR AND MORTGAGEE, AND MORTGAGOR AND MORTGAGEE HEREBY REPRESENT THAT NO REPRESENTATIONS OF FACT OR OPINION HAVE BEEN MADE BY ANY PERSON

MORTGAGOR AND MORTGAGEE ARE EACH HEREBY AUTHORIZED TO FILE A COPY OF THIS SECTION IN ANY PROCEEDING AS CONCLUSIVE EVIDENCE OF THIS WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. MORTGAGOR FURTHER REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS THAT IT HAS BEEN REPRESENTED IN THE SIGNING OF THIS MORTGAGE AND IN THE MAKING OF THIS WAIVER BY INDEPENDENT LEGAL COUNSEL, OR HAS HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE REPRESENTED BY INDEPENDENT LEGAL COUNSEL SELECTED OF ITS OWN FREE WILL, AND THAT IT HAS HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO DISCUSS THIS WAIVER WITH COUNSEL.

The Loan shall be cross-defaulted with all other loans which Mortgagor shall have from Lenders during the term of the Loan, whether existing as of the date of this Agreement subsequently made. A default under any of the above-described loans shall constitute a Default under the Loan. A Default under the Loan shall constitute a Default under the above-described other loans. To the extent not prohibited by applicable law, if Mortgagee, at its option, avails itself of this cross-default provision, Mortgagee shall have the option to pursue its remedies in any combinations and against any or all of Mortgagee’s security for the aforesaid loans, whether successively, concurrently or otherwise.

          Section 6.29. Substitute Mortgages. Mortgagor and Mortgagee shall, upon their mutual agreement to do so, execute such documents as may be necessary in order to effectuate the modification hereof, including the execution of substitute mortgages, so as to create two (2) or more liens on the Mortgaged Property in such amounts as may be mutually agreed upon but in no event to exceed, in the aggregate, the Mortgage Amount; in such event, Mortgagor covenants and agrees to pay the reasonable fees and expenses of Mortgagee and its counsel in connection with any such modification.

          Section 6.30. Satisfaction or Assignment of Mortgage. Upon payment in full of all sums, and the performance of all obligations, secured hereby in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Mortgage and the other Loan documents, Mortgagee shall deliver a satisfaction or release of this Mortgage or, at Mortgagor’s option to be exercised in writing, an assignment hereof, in either case in proper form of recording. As a condition to any such satisfaction or assignment, Mortgagor covenants and agrees to pay Mortgagee’s reasonable fees and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and expenses) in connection therewith. Upon any such satisfaction or assignment, Mortgagee shall, automatically and without the need for any other further documentation, be absolutely and unconditionally released from any and all claims or liabilities in connection with the Loan. In addition, Mortgagor hereby indemnifies and agrees to hold Mortgagee harmless from and against any and all claims and liabilities arising out of the satisfaction or assignment hereof, such indemnification to survive any such satisfaction or assignment.

          Section 6.31. New York Provisions. (a) Mortgagor hereby makes the following statement: “This Mortgage does not cover real property principally improved or to be improved by one (1) or more structures containing in the aggregate not more than six (6) residential

Mortgagor shall hold harmless and indemnify Mortgagee, its successors and assigns, against any liability incurred by reason of the imposition of any tax (excluding Mortgagee’s income taxes) on the making and recording of this Mortgage.

          12. Marshalling. Mortgagor waives and releases any right to have the Mortgaged Property marshaled.

                    1. Guaranty of Payment. Guarantor hereby jointly and severally, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to Administrative Agent and Lenders the punctual payment when due, whether by lapse of time, by acceleration of maturity, or otherwise, of (a) all principal, interest (including interest accruing after the commencement of any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding by or against Borrower, whether or not allowed in such proceeding), fees, late charges, costs, expenses, indemnification indebtedness, and other sums of money now or hereafter due and owing, or which Borrower is obligated to pay, pursuant to the terms of the Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage, the Environmental Agreement, any application, agreement, note or other document executed and delivered in connection with any Swap Contract or any other Loan Documents, including any indemnifications contained in the Loan Documents, now or hereafter existing, and all renewals, extensions, refinancings, modifications, supplements or amendments of such indebtedness, or any of the Loan Documents, or any part thereof, (b) payment by Borrower of all customary or necessary costs and expenses actually incurred by Borrower, Administrative Agent or Lenders in connection with the operation, maintenance and management of the Land and the Improvements, including, without limitation, condominium common charges and assessments, insurance premiums, taxes and assessments, payments in lieu of taxes, utilities, repair, replacement and all other maintenance costs and expenses, equipment lease payments, management fees, professional fees, accounting fees, salaries, fringe and other benefits due to all employees engaged in the operation, maintenance or management of the Land and the Improvements, payroll and related taxes and any and all other customary or necessary operating expenses, (c) any and all transfer taxes which may be due in connection with the foreclosure of the Mortgage or delivery of a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure of the Mortgage, (d) all legal and other costs or expenses paid or incurred by or on behalf of Administrative Agent and/or Lenders in the enforcement thereof or hereof, (e) all leasing commissions, tenant allowances and/or other amounts which Borrower is obligated to pay as landlord under any and all existing leases of the Property and under any and all future leases at the Property executed while Borrower owns the Property and (f) any loss, cost, damage or expense paid or incurred by or on behalf of Administrative Agent and Lenders by reason of (i) any fraud or material misrepresentation, (ii) taxes of any kind (whether characterized as transfer, gains or other taxes)

2


payable in connection with the foreclosure sale of the Property, irrespective of who pays such taxes, (iii) application of any proceeds of the Loan to any purpose other than as provided in the Loan Documents (provided that Guarantor’s liability under this clause (iii) shall not apply to distributions made by Borrower more than thirty (30) days prior to a Default provided that such distributions are in the ordinary course of business and Borrower is solvent at the time of such distributions); (iv) the application of any insurance or condemnation proceeds or other funds or payments other than strictly in accordance with the Loan Documents, (v) the misapplication of any security deposits, (vi) rents, sales proceeds, or other sums received after default under the Loan Documents which are not applied to expenses of operating the Property or paid to Administrative Agent or a duly appointed receiver of the Property, (vii) any failure to deliver to Administrative Agent, after demand therefor, any agreements relating to the operation, management, leasing, use, occupancy or construction of the Property, (viii) any intentional physical waste in respect of the Property, (ix) any failure to pay or discharge any real estate tax, other tax, assessment, fine, penalty or lien against the Property to the extent revenue from leases of the Property was available to pay same, (x) liability as landlord under any lease(s) relating to the Property which liability accrued prior to Administrative Agent’s or Lenders’ succeeding to such interest of Borrower, which Administrative Agent or Lenders is or becomes obligated for by virtue of Administrative Agent or Lenders succeeding to the interests of Borrower, (xi) any Insolvency Event (as hereinafter defined), (xii) any state of facts or circumstances which are contrary to the representations and warranties set forth in Section 31 or (xiii) Lenders being required by any agreement entered into with a tenant of the Property to release any insurance and/or condemnation award proceeds as to which Borrower is not entitled to have applied to restoration of the Property pursuant to Sections 2.1(d), 2.1(e) and/or 2.1(g), as applicable of each Mortgage (the indebtedness described above in this Section 1 is herein collectively called the “Indebtedness”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) Guarantor’s aggregate liability in respect of the principal amount of the Loan (the “Principal Liability”) shall be limited to the PL Amount as defined below (the limitation in this proviso being herein referred to as the “Principal Liability Limitation”) and (B) Guarantor’s liability in respect of interest, fees, penalties and late charges and in respect of clause (b) above shall be equal to the aggregate amount of all such amounts accrued and unpaid as of the Determination Date (as hereinafter defined), provided that (x) in no event shall the Principal Liability Limitation in the foregoing proviso affect Guarantor’s liability hereunder as to all interest, fees, penalties, late charges and any other amounts (other than principal) due under the Loan Documents and any amounts due and owing pursuant to clauses (b), (c), (d), (e) and (f) above (the “Guarantor’s Non-Principal Liability”) and (y) the effectiveness or continuing effectiveness of the Principal Liability Limitation shall be conditioned on the absence of any Insolvency Event, it being understood and agreed that if said condition is not continuously satisfied Guarantor’s liability hereunder in respect of the entire principal amount of the Loan and all other amounts due under the Loan Documents shall be in full force and effect and the Principal Liability Limitation shall be void and of no force or effect. The “PL Amount” shall mean an amount equal to zero dollars ($0).

                    As used herein, the term “Determination Date” shall mean the date which is the earliest to occur of (1) the acceptance by Administrative Agent or Administrative Agent’s designee of the conveyance of the premises encumbered by the Mortgage by deed or assignment in lieu of foreclosure, or (2) the date upon which a sale (whether made under a power of sale, by virtue of a judicial proceeding or judgment or decree of foreclosure or sale or otherwise) of such

3


mortgaged premises occurs as a result of enforcement of the Mortgage or (3) payment in full of Borrower’s obligations under the Note, Mortgage and Loan Agreement.

                    As used herein, the term “Insolvency Event” shall mean any voluntary or collusive involuntary filing of any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding by or against Borrower or Guarantor.

                    In the event of a foreclosure sale, Guarantor agrees that Guarantor’s Non-Principal Liability obligation hereunder shall not be reduced out of the proceeds of such sale except to the extent that such proceeds exceed the sum of (x) the unpaid principal amount of the Loan, (y) costs and expenses of such sale and (z) the amount of any taxes or assessments or any similar charges paid out of the proceeds of such sale or subject to which the Property has been sold. Nothing herein is intended to require Administrative Agent to proceed against Borrower or any security for the Loan before proceeding against Guarantor at any time or limit Administrative Agent’s right to proceed against Guarantor at any time or from time to time for principal, interest, default interest and late charges guaranteed hereby which are not paid as and when the same become due in accordance with the terms of the Note, Loan Agreement and Mortgage whether or not Administrative Agent shall have declared the principal of the Note and accrued and unpaid interest, default interest and late charges payable thereunder or under the Mortgage or the Loan Agreement to be immediately due and payable.

                    This Guaranty covers the Indebtedness, whether presently outstanding or arising subsequent to the date hereof, including all amounts advanced by Lenders in stages or installments. The guaranty of Guarantor as set forth in this Section 1 is a continuing guaranty of payment and not a guaranty of collection.

                    2. Guaranty of Performance. Guarantor additionally hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to Administrative Agent and Lenders the timely performance of all other obligations of Borrower under all of the Loan Documents, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing:

 

 

 

          (a) that the tenant improvement work required to be performed by the landlord under any and all leases, both existing and future, of space in the Improvements (the “TI Work”) will be constructed in accordance with such leases and the Loan Agreement; and

 

 

 

          (b) that the TI Work will be completed, lien free, and ready for occupancy, including delivery of any permits, certificates or governmental approvals required by law or the applicable lease, on or before the date required in such lease.

If any of such obligations of Borrower are not complied with, in any respect whatsoever, and without the necessity of any notice from Administrative Agent or Lenders to Guarantor, Guarantor agrees to (i) assume all responsibility for the completion of the TI Work and, at Guarantor’s own cost and expense, cause the TI Work to be fully completed in accordance with the leases of the Property and the Loan Documents; (ii) pay all bills in connection with the construction of the TI Work; and (iii) indemnify and hold Administrative Agent and Lenders harmless from any and all loss, cost, liability or expense that Administrative Agent and Lenders

4


may suffer by reason of any such non-compliance. So long as all of such obligations are being performed by Borrower or Guarantor and no Default exists, Lenders will make the Loan proceeds, if any, available under and subject to the terms of the Loan Agreement. If after the occurrence of a Default, and without limiting the rights and remedies of Administrative Agent and Lenders, Administrative Agent, in its sole and absolute discretion, is dissatisfied with the progress of construction by Borrower and/or Guarantor, Administrative Agent may, at its option, without notice to Guarantor or anyone else, complete the TI Work either before or after commencement of foreclosure proceedings or before or after exercise of any other right or remedy of Administrative Agent against Borrower or Guarantor and expend such sums as Administrative Agent, in its sole and absolute discretion, deems necessary or advisable to complete the TI Work, and Guarantor hereby waives any right to contest any such expenditures by Administrative Agent and/or Lenders. The amount of any and all expenditures made by Administrative Agent for the foregoing purposes shall bear interest from the date made until repaid to Administrative Agent, at a rate per annum equal to the interest rate provided for in the Note and, together with such interest, shall be due and payable by Guarantor to Administrative Agent upon demand. Neither Lenders nor Administrative Agent have nor shall they ever have any obligation to complete the TI Work or take any such action. The obligations and liability of Guarantor under this Section 2 shall not be limited or restricted by the existence of (or any terms of) the guaranty of payment under Section 1.

                    3. Primary Liability of Guarantor.

                    (a) This Guaranty is an absolute, irrevocable and unconditional guaranty of payment and performance. Guarantor shall be liable for the payment and performance of the Guaranteed Obligations as a primary obligor. This Guaranty shall be effective as a waiver of, and Guarantor hereby expressly waives, any and all rights to which Guarantor may otherwise have been entitled under any suretyship laws in effect from time to time, including any right or privilege, whether existing under statute, at law or in equity, to require Administrative Agent or Lenders to take prior recourse or proceedings against any collateral, security or Person (hereinafter defined) whatsoever.

                    (b) Guarantor hereby agrees that in the event of (i) default by Borrower in payment or performance of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any part thereof, when such indebtedness or performance becomes due, either by its terms or as the result of the exercise of any power to accelerate; (ii) the failure of Guarantor to perform completely and satisfactorily the covenants, terms and conditions of any of the Guaranteed Obligations; (iii) the death, incompetency, dissolution or insolvency of Guarantor, provided, however, that the death of a Guarantor shall not be an Event of Default if a new guarantor satisfactory to Administrative Agent in its sole discretion assumes the deceased Guarantor’s obligations within sixty (60) days of the death of such Guarantor; (iv) the inability of Guarantor to pay debts as they mature; (v) an assignment by Guarantor for the benefit of creditors; (vi) the institution of any proceeding by or against Guarantor in bankruptcy or for a reorganization or an arrangement with creditors, or for the appointment of a receiver, trustee or custodian for any of them or for any of their respective properties; (vii) the determination by Administrative Agent in good faith that a material adverse change has occurred in the financial condition of Guarantor; (viii) the entry of a judgment against Guarantor for an amount in excess of $500,000 and Guarantor shall not discharge the same or cause it to be discharged within sixty (60) days from the entry thereof, or shall not

5


appeal therefrom or from the order, decree or process upon which or pursuant to which said judgment was granted, based or entered, and secure a stay of execution or bond over such judgment by a commercially acceptable bonding company pending such appeal; (ix) a writ or order of attachment, levy or garnishment is issued against Guarantor; (x) the falsity in any material respect of, or any material omission in, any representation made to Administrative Agent and/or Lenders by Guarantor; or (xi) any transfer of assets of any Guarantor, without Administrative Agent’s prior consent (except for transfers of assets for estate planning purposes valued at less than $50,000 per year per Guarantor, customary political and charitable contributions, and transfers for which Guarantor receives consideration substantially equivalent to the fair market value of the transferred asset) (individually and collectively an “Event of Default”); then upon the occurrence of such Event of Default, the Guaranteed Obligations, for purposes of this Guaranty, shall be deemed immediately due and payable at the election of Administrative Agent, and Guarantor shall, on demand and without presentment, protest, notice of protest, further notice of nonpayment or of dishonor, default or nonperformance, or notice of acceleration or of intent to accelerate, or any other notice whatsoever, without any notice having been given to Guarantor previous to such demand of the acceptance by Administrative Agent and/or Lenders of this Guaranty, and without any notice having been given to Guarantor previous to such demand of the creating or incurring of such indebtedness or of such obligation to perform, all such notices being hereby waived by Guarantor, pay the amount due to Administrative Agent or perform or observe the agreement, covenant, term or condition, as the case may be, and pay all damages and all costs and expenses that may arise in consequence of such Event of Default (including, without limitation, all attorneys’ fees and expenses, investigation costs, court costs, and any and all other costs and expenses incurred by Administrative Agent in connection with the collection and enforcement of the Note, this Guaranty or any other Loan Document), whether or not suit is filed thereon, or whether at maturity or by acceleration, or whether before or after maturity, or whether in connection with bankruptcy, insolvency or appeal. It shall not be necessary for Administrative Agent, in order to enforce such payment or performance by Guarantor, first to institute suit or pursue or exhaust any rights or remedies against Borrower or others liable on such indebtedness or for such performance, or to enforce any rights against any security that shall ever have been given to secure such indebtedness or performance, or to join Borrower or any others liable for the payment or performance of the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof in any action to enforce this Guaranty, or to resort to any other means of obtaining payment or performance of the Guaranteed Obligations; provided, however, that nothing herein contained shall prevent Administrative Agent from suing on the Note or foreclosing the Mortgage or from exercising any other rights thereunder, and if such foreclosure or other remedy is availed of, only the net proceeds therefrom, after deduction of all charges and expenses of every kind and nature whatsoever, shall be applied in reduction of the amount due on the Note and Mortgage, and Administrative Agent shall not be required to institute or prosecute proceedings to recover any deficiency as a condition of payment hereunder or enforcement hereof. At any sale of the Property or other collateral given for the Indebtedness or any part thereof, whether by foreclosure or otherwise, Administrative Agent may at its discretion purchase all or any part of the Property or collateral so sold or offered for sale for its own account and may, in payment of the amount bid therefor, deduct such amount from the balance due it pursuant to the terms of the Note, Mortgage and other Loan Documents.

6


                    (c) Suit may be brought or demand may be made against Borrower or against all parties who have signed this Guaranty or any other guaranty covering all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, or against any one or more of them, separately or together, without impairing the rights of Administrative Agent and/or Lenders against any party hereto. Any time that Administrative Agent is entitled to exercise its rights or remedies hereunder, it may in its discretion elect to demand payment and/or performance. If Administrative Agent elects to demand performance, it shall at all times thereafter have the right to demand payment until all of the Guaranteed Obligations have been paid and performed in full. If Administrative Agent elects to demand payment, it shall at all times thereafter have the right to demand performance until all of the Guaranteed Obligations have been paid and performed in full.

                    4. Certain Agreements and Waivers by Guarantor.

          (11) if for any reason Administrative Agent and/or Lenders is required to refund any payment by Borrower to any other party liable for the payment or

8



 

 

 

performance of any or all of the Guaranteed Obligations or pay the amount thereof to someone else;

 

 

 

          (12) the making of advances by Administrative Agent and/or Lenders to protect their interest in the Property, preserve the value of the Property or for the purpose of performing any term or covenant contained in any of the Loan Documents;

          (14) the unenforceability of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations against Borrower, whether because the Guaranteed Obligations exceed the amount permitted by law or violate any usury law, or because the act of creating the Guaranteed Obligations, or any part thereof, is ultra vires, or because the officers or Persons creating the Guaranteed Obligations acted in excess of their authority, or because of a lack of validity or enforceability of or defect or deficiency in any of the Loan Documents, or because Borrower has any valid defense, claim or offset with respect thereto, or because Borrower’s obligation ceases to exist by operation of law, or because of any other reason or circumstance, it being agreed that Guarantor shall remain liable hereon regardless of whether Borrower or any other Person be found not liable on the Guaranteed Obligations, or any part thereof, for any reason (and regardless of any joinder of Borrower or any other party in any action to obtain payment or performance of any or all of the Guaranteed Obligations);

 

 

 

          (15) any order, ruling or plan of reorganization emanating from proceedings under Title 11 of the United States Code with respect to Borrower or any other Person, including any extension, reduction, composition, or other alteration of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether or not consented to by Lender; or

 

 

 

          (16) any other condition, event, omission, action or inaction that would in the absence of this paragraph result in the release or discharge of the Guarantor from the performance or observance of any obligation, covenant or agreement contained in this Guaranty or any other agreement.

 

 

 

          (17) any early termination of any of the Guaranteed Obligations;

 

 

 

          (18) Administrative Agent’s and/or Lenders’ enforcement or forbearance from enforcement of the Guaranteed Obligations on a net or gross basis; or

 

 

 

          (19) any invalidity, irregularity or unenforceability in whole or in part (including with respect to any netting provision) of any Swap Contract or any confirmation, instrument or agreement required thereunder or related thereto, or any transaction entered into thereunder, or any limitation on the liability of Borrower thereunder or any limitation on the method or terms of payment thereunder which may now or hereafter be caused or imposed in any manner whatsoever.

9


                    (b) In the event any payment by Borrower or any other Person to Administrative Agent and/or Lenders is held to constitute a preference, fraudulent transfer or other voidable payment under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law, or if for any other reason Administrative Agent and/or Lenders is required to refund such payment or pay the amount thereof to any other party, such payment by Borrower or any other party to Administrative Agent and/or Lenders shall not constitute a release of Guarantor from any liability hereunder, and this Guaranty shall continue to be effective or shall be reinstated (notwithstanding any prior release, surrender or discharge by Administrative Agent and/or Lenders of this Guaranty or of Guarantor), as the case may be, with respect to, and this Guaranty shall apply to, any and all amounts so refunded by Administrative Agent and/or Lenders or paid by Administrative Agent and/or Lenders to another Person (which amounts shall constitute part of the Guaranteed Obligations), and any interest paid by Administrative Agent and/or Lenders and any attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses paid or incurred by Administrative Agent and/or Lenders in connection with any such event. It is the intent of Guarantor, Administrative Agent and Lenders that the obligations and liabilities of Guarantor hereunder are absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and that until the Guaranteed Obligations are fully and finally paid and performed, and not subject to refund or disgorgement, the obligations and liabilities of Guarantor hereunder shall not be discharged or released, in whole or in part, by any act or occurrence that might, but for the provisions of this Guaranty, be deemed a legal or equitable discharge or release of a guarantor. Administrative Agent and/or Lenders shall be entitled to continue to hold this Guaranty in its possession for the longer of (i) the period after which any performance of obligations under the Environmental Agreement shall accrue, or (ii) a period of one year from the date the Guaranteed Obligations are paid and performed in full and for so long thereafter as may be necessary to enforce any obligation of Guarantor hereunder and/or to exercise any right or remedy of Administrative Agent and/or Lenders hereunder.

                    (c) If acceleration of the time for payment of any amount payable by Borrower under the Note, the Loan Agreement, any Swap Contract or any other Loan Document is stayed or delayed by any law or tribunal, all such amounts shall nonetheless be payable by Guarantor on demand by Administrative Agent and/or Lenders.

                    5. Subordination. If, for any reason whatsoever, Borrower is now or hereafter becomes indebted to Guarantor:

 

 

 

          (a) such indebtedness and all interest thereon and all liens, security interests and rights now or hereafter existing with respect to property of Borrower securing such indebtedness shall, at all times, be subordinate in all respects to the Guaranteed Obligations and to all liens, security interests and rights now or hereafter existing to secure the Guaranteed Obligations;

 

 

 

          (b) Guarantor shall not be entitled to enforce or receive payment, directly or indirectly, of any such indebtedness of Borrower to Guarantor until the Guaranteed Obligations have been fully and finally paid and performed;

 

 

 

          (c) Guarantor hereby assigns and grants to Administrative Agent for the benefit of Lenders a security interest in all such indebtedness and security therefor, if any, of Borrower to Guarantor now existing or hereafter arising, including any dividends and

10



 

 

 

payments pursuant to debtor relief or insolvency proceedings referred to below. In the event of receivership, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement or other debtor relief or insolvency proceedings involving Borrower as debtor, Administrative Agent shall have the right to prove the claim of Administrative Agent and/or Lenders in any such proceeding so as to establish their rights hereunder and shall have the right to receive directly from the receiver, trustee or other custodian (whether or not a Default shall have occurred or be continuing under any of the Loan Documents), dividends and payments that are payable upon any obligation of Borrower to Guarantor now existing or hereafter arising, and to have all benefits of any security therefor, until the Guaranteed Obligations have been fully and finally paid and performed. If, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, Guarantor should receive any payment, claim or distribution that is prohibited as provided above in this Section 5, Guarantor shall pay the same to Administrative Agent immediately, Guarantor hereby agreeing that it shall receive the payment, claim or distribution in trust for Administrative Agent and Lenders and shall have absolutely no dominion over the same except to pay it immediately to Administrative Agent; and

 

 

 

          (d) Guarantor shall promptly upon request of Administrative Agent from time to time execute such documents and perform such acts as Administrative Agent may require to evidence and perfect its interest and to permit or facilitate exercise of its rights under this Section 5, including, but not limited to, execution and delivery of financing statements, proofs of claim, further assignments and security agreements, and delivery to Administrative Agent of any promissory notes or other instruments evidencing indebtedness of Borrower to Guarantor. All promissory notes, accounts receivable ledgers or other evidences, now or hereafter held by Guarantor, of obligations of Borrower to Guarantor shall contain a specific written notice thereon that the indebtedness evidenced thereby is subordinated under and is subject to the terms of this Guaranty.

                    6. Other Liability of Guarantor or Borrower. If Guarantor is or becomes liable, by endorsement or otherwise, for any indebtedness owing by Borrower to Administrative Agent and/or Lenders other than under this Guaranty, such liability shall not be in any manner impaired or affected hereby, and the rights of Administrative Agent and/or Lenders hereunder shall be cumulative of any and all other rights that Administrative Agent and/or Lenders may have against Guarantor. This Guaranty is independent of (and shall not be limited by) any other guaranty now existing or hereafter given. Further, Guarantor’s liability under this Guaranty is in addition to any and all other liability Guarantor may have in any other capacity, including without limitation, its capacity as a general partner.

                    7. Lender Assigns. This Guaranty is for the benefit of Administrative Agent and Lenders and their successors and assigns, subject to the terms of the Loan Agreement, and in the event of an assignment of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any part thereof, the rights and benefits hereunder, to the extent applicable to the Guaranteed Obligations so assigned, may be transferred with such Guaranteed Obligations. Guarantor waives notice of any transfer or assignment of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any part thereof, and agrees that failure to give notice of any such transfer or assignment will not affect the liabilities of Guarantor hereunder.

11


                    8. Binding Effect. This Guaranty is binding not only on Guarantor, but also on Guarantor’s heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns. Upon the death of Guarantor, if Guarantor is a natural person, this Guaranty shall continue against Guarantor’s estate as to all of the Guaranteed Obligations, including that portion incurred or arising after the death of Guarantor and shall be provable in full against Guarantor’s estate, whether or not the Guaranteed Obligations are then due and payable. If this Guaranty is signed by more than one Person, then all of the obligations of Guarantor arising hereunder shall be jointly and severally binding on each of the undersigned, and their respective heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns, and the term “Guarantor” shall mean all of such Persons and each of them individually.

                    9. Governing Law; Forum; Consent to Jurisdiction. This Guaranty is an agreement executed under seal. The validity, enforcement, and interpretation of this Guaranty, shall for all purposes be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York and applicable United States federal law, and is intended to be performed in accordance with, and only to the extent permitted by, such laws. If any Guarantor is a corporation, the designation “(SEAL)” on this Guaranty shall be effective as the affixing of such Guarantor’s corporate seal physically to this Guaranty. All obligations of Guarantor hereunder are payable and performable at the place or places where the Guaranteed Obligations are payable and performable. Guarantor hereby irrevocably submits generally and unconditionally for Guarantor and in respect of Guarantor’s property to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of any state court, or any United States federal court, sitting in the state specified in the first sentence of this Section and to the jurisdiction of any state or United States federal court sitting in the state in which any of the Land is located, over any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Guaranty or the Guaranteed Obligations. Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection that Guarantor may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue in any such court and any claim that any such court is an inconvenient forum. Final judgment in any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court shall be conclusive and binding upon Guarantor and may be enforced in any court in which Guarantor is subject to jurisdiction. Guarantor hereby agrees and consents that, in addition to any methods of service of process provided for under applicable law, all service of process in any such suit, action or proceeding in any state court, or any United States federal court, sitting in the state specified in the first sentence of this Section may be made by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, directed to Guarantor at the address set forth at the end of this Guaranty, or at a subsequent address of which Administrative Agent receives actual notice from Guarantor in accordance with the notice provisions hereof, and service so made shall be complete five (5) days after the same shall have been so mailed. Nothing herein shall affect the right of Administrative Agent to serve process in any manner permitted by law or limit the right of Administrative Agent to bring proceedings against Guarantor in any other court or jurisdiction. Guarantor hereby releases, to the extent permitted by applicable law, all errors and all rights of exemption, appeal, stay of execution, inquisition, and other rights to which Guarantor may otherwise be entitled under the laws of the United States of America or any State or possession of the United States of America now in force or which may hereinafter be enacted. The authority and power to appear for and enter judgment against the Guarantor shall not be exhausted by one or more exercises thereof or by any imperfect exercise thereof and shall not be extinguished by any judgment entered pursuant thereto. Such authority may be exercised on one or more

12


occasions or from time to time in the same or different jurisdiction as often as the Administrative Agent shall deem necessary and desirable.

                    10. Invalidity of Certain Provisions. If any provision of this Guaranty or the application thereof to any Person or circumstance shall, for any reason and to any extent, be declared to be invalid or unenforceable, neither the remaining provisions of this Guaranty nor the application of such provision to any other Person or circumstance shall be affected thereby, and the remaining provisions of this Guaranty, or the applicability of such provision to other Persons or circumstances, as applicable, shall remain in effect and be enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.

                    11. Attorneys’ Fees and Costs of Collection. Guarantor shall pay on demand all attorneys’ fees and all other costs and expenses incurred by Administrative Agent and/or Lenders in the enforcement of or preservation of Administrative Agent’s and/or Lenders’ rights under this Guaranty including, without limitation, all attorneys’ fees and expenses, investigation costs, and all court costs, whether or not suit is filed hereon, or whether at maturity or by acceleration, or whether before or after maturity, or whether in connection with bankruptcy, insolvency or appeal, or whether in connection with the collection and enforcement of this Guaranty against any other Guarantor, if there be more than one. Guarantor agrees to pay interest on any expenses or other sums due to Administrative Agent and/or Lenders under this Section 11 that are not paid when due, at a rate per annum equal to the interest rate provided for in the Note. Guarantor’s obligations and liabilities under this Section 11 shall survive any payment or discharge in full of the Guaranteed Obligations.

                    12. Payments. All sums payable under this Guaranty shall be paid in lawful money of the United States of America that at the time of payment is legal tender for the payment of public and private debts.

                    13. Controlling Agreement. It is not the intention of Administrative Agent, Lenders or Guarantor to obligate Guarantor to pay interest in excess of that lawfully permitted to be paid by Guarantor under applicable law. Should it be determined that any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other amount payable by Guarantor under this Guaranty constitutes interest in excess of the maximum amount of interest that Guarantor, in Guarantor’s capacity as guarantor, may lawfully be required to pay under applicable law, the obligation of Guarantor to pay such interest shall automatically be limited to the payment thereof in the maximum amount so permitted under applicable law. The provisions of this Section 13 shall override and control all other provisions of this Guaranty and of any other agreement between Guarantor, Administrative Agent and Lenders.

                    14. Representations, Warranties, and Covenants of Guarantor. Guarantor hereby represents, warrants, and covenants that: (a) Guarantor has a financial interest in Borrower and will derive a material and substantial benefit, directly or indirectly, from the making of the Loan to Borrower and from the making of this Guaranty by Guarantor; (b) this Guaranty is duly authorized and valid, and is binding upon and enforceable against Guarantor; (c) Guarantor is not, and the execution, delivery and performance by Guarantor of this Guaranty will not cause Guarantor to be, in violation of or in default with respect to any law or in default (or at risk of acceleration of indebtedness) under any agreement or restriction by which

13


Guarantor is bound or affected; (d) Guarantor is duly organized, validly existing, and in good standing under the laws of the state of its organization and under Delaware laws, is lawfully doing business in New York, and has full power and authority to enter into and perform this Guaranty; (e) Guarantor will indemnify Administrative Agent and Lenders from any loss, cost or expense as a result of any representation or warranty of the Guarantor being false, incorrect, incomplete or misleading in any material respect; (f) there is no litigation pending or, to the knowledge of Guarantor, threatened before or by any tribunal against or affecting Guarantor; (g) all financial statements and information heretofore furnished to Administrative Agent and Lenders by Guarantor do, and all financial statements and information hereafter furnished to Administrative Agent and Lenders by Guarantor will, fully and accurately present the condition (financial or otherwise) of Guarantor as of their dates and the results of Guarantor’s operations for the periods therein specified, and, since the date of the most recent financial statements of Guarantor heretofore furnished to Administrative Agent, no material adverse change has occurred in the financial condition of Guarantor, nor, except as heretofore disclosed in writing to Administrative Agent, has Guarantor incurred any material liability, direct or indirect, fixed or contingent; (h) after giving effect to this Guaranty, Guarantor is solvent, is not engaged or about to engage in business or a transaction for which the property of Guarantor is an unreasonably small capital, and does not intend to incur or believe that it will incur debts that will be beyond its ability to pay as such debts mature; (i) Administrative Agent and Lenders have no duty at any time to investigate or inform Guarantor of the financial or business condition or affairs of Borrower or any change therein, and Guarantor will keep fully apprised of Borrower’s financial and business condition; (j) Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that Guarantor may be required to pay and perform the Guaranteed Obligations in full without assistance or support from Borrower or any other Person; and (k) Guarantor has read and fully understands the provisions contained in the Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage, the Environmental Agreement, and the other Loan Documents. Guarantor’s representations, warranties and covenants are a material inducement to Administrative Agent and Lenders to enter into the other Loan Documents and shall survive the execution hereof and any bankruptcy, foreclosure, transfer of security or other event affecting Borrower, Guarantor, any other party, or any security for all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations.

                    Guarantor further represents, warrants and covenants that if any Swap Contract shall at any time be in effect, (x) Guarantor has received and examined copies of each such Swap Contract, the observance and performance of which by Borrower is hereby guaranteed; (y) Guarantor will benefit from Administrative Agent’s and/or any Lender’s entering into each such Swap Contract and any transaction thereunder with Borrower, and Guarantor has determined that the execution and delivery by Guarantor of this Guaranty are necessary and convenient to the conduct, promotion and attainment of the business of Guarantor; and (z) Administrative Agent and Lenders have no duty to determine whether any Swap Contract, or any other transaction relating to or arising under any Swap Contract, will be or has been entered into by Borrower for purposes of hedging interest rate, currency exchange rate, or other risks arising in its businesses or affairs and not for purposes of speculation or is otherwise inappropriate for Borrower. Guarantor’s representations, warranties and covenants are a material inducement to Administrative Agent to enter into the other Loan Documents and any Swap Contract shall survive the execution hereof and any bankruptcy, foreclosure, transfer of security or other event affecting Borrower, Guarantor, any other party, or any security for all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations.

14


                    15. Notices. All notices, requests, consents, demands and other communications required or which any party desires to give hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be in writing and, unless otherwise specifically provided in such other Loan Document, shall be deemed sufficiently given or furnished if delivered by personal delivery, by nationally recognized overnight courier service, or by registered or certified United States mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the party to whom directed at the addresses specified in this Guaranty (unless changed by similar notice in writing given by the particular party whose address is to be changed) or by telegram, telex, or facsimile. Any such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been given either at the time of personal delivery or, in the case of courier or mail, as of the date of first attempted delivery at the address and in the manner provided herein, or, in the case of telegram, telex or facsimile, upon receipt; provided that, service of a notice required by any applicable statute shall be considered complete when the requirements of that statute are met. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no notice of change of address shall be effective except upon actual receipt. This Section shall not be construed in any way to affect or impair any waiver of notice or demand provided in this Guaranty or in any Loan Document or to require giving of notice or demand to or upon any Person in any situation or for any reason.

                    16. Cumulative Rights. The exercise by Administrative Agent and/or Lenders of any right or remedy hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or at law or in equity, shall not preclude the concurrent or subsequent exercise of any other right or remedy. Administrative Agent and Lenders shall have all rights, remedies and recourses afforded to Administrative Agent and Lenders by reason of this Guaranty or any other Loan Document or by law or equity or otherwise, and the same (a) shall be cumulative and concurrent, (b) may be pursued separately, successively or concurrently against Guarantor or others obligated for the Guaranteed Obligations, or any part thereof, or against any one or more of them, or against any security or otherwise, at the sole and absolute discretion of Administrative Agent, (c) may be exercised as often as occasion therefor shall arise, it being agreed by Guarantor that the exercise of, discontinuance of the exercise of or failure to exercise any of such rights, remedies, or recourses shall in no event be construed as a waiver or release thereof or of any other right, remedy, or recourse, and (d) are intended to be, and shall be, nonexclusive. No waiver of any default on the part of Guarantor or of any breach of any of the provisions of this Guaranty or of any other document shall be considered a waiver of any other or subsequent default or breach, and no delay or omission in exercising or enforcing the rights and powers granted herein or in any other document shall be construed as a waiver of such rights and powers, and no exercise or enforcement of any rights or powers hereunder or under any other document shall be held to exhaust such rights and powers, and every such right and power may be exercised from time to time. The granting of any consent, approval or waiver by Administrative Agent and/or Lenders shall be limited to the specific instance and purpose therefor and shall not constitute consent or approval in any other instance or for any other purpose. No notice to or demand on Guarantor in any case shall of itself entitle Guarantor to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. No provision of this Guaranty or any right, remedy or recourse of Administrative Agent and/or Lenders with respect hereto, or any default or breach, can be waived, nor can this Guaranty or Guarantor be released or discharged in any way or to any extent, except specifically in each case by a writing intended for that purpose (and which refers specifically to this Guaranty) executed, and delivered to Guarantor, by Administrative Agent.

15


                    17. Term of Guaranty.

NOTE CONSOLIDATION AND MODIFICATION AGREEMENT

          THIS AGREEMENT OF MODIFICATION OF NOTE CONSOLIDATION AND MODIFICATION AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) dated November 5, 2010 but deemed effective as of October 30, 2010 (the “Effective Date”) made by and between ACADIA TARRYTOWN LLC, a New York limited liability company having an address c/o Acadia Realty Trust, 1311 Mamaroneck Avenue, Suite 260, White Plains, New York 10605 (“Borrower”) and ANGLO IRISH BANK CORPORATION LIMITED (f/k/a Anglo Irish Bank Corporation plc) a limited company organized under the laws of the Republic of Ireland, having an address at Stephen Court, 18/21 St. Stephen’s Green, Dublin 2, Ireland (“Lender”)

WITNESSETH:

          A. Borrower is indebted to Lender pursuant to the terms of a Note Consolidation and Modification Agreement dated as of October 30, 2007 in the original principal sum of $9,800,000.00 (the “Loan”) from Borrower in favor of Lender (the “Note”).

          B. Borrower’s obligations to Lender under the Note are secured by, inter alia, a Mortgage Consolidation and Modification Agreement dated as of October 30, 2007 made by Borrower in favor of Lender (the “Mortgage”) encumbering that certain property located at 124-134 Wildey Street, Greenburgh, New York (the “Mortgaged Property”). The Mortgage, the Note and all other documents executed by Borrower or Guarantor in connection therewith are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Loan Documents”. Capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed thereto in the Note.

          C. Borrower desires to exercise the first Extension Option to extend the Maturity Date of the Note to the First Extended Maturity Date and in connection therewith, Borrower and Lender wish to document the terms of such extension and modify other terms of the Note as more fully set forth herein.

          NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto agree as follows:

          1. Extension of Maturity Date. Borrower and Lender acknowledge and agree that the term of the Loan is hereby extended to the First Extended Maturity Date, or October 30, 2011. Borrower represents and warrants that the conditions to such Extension Option (as set forth in clauses (a) through and including (g) of Paragraph 6 of the Note) have been satisfied, to wit:

 

 

 

 

 

a.

As of the Effective Date, no default under the Loan Documents exists beyond any applicable notice and grace period;

 

 

 

 

b.

As of the Effective Date (subject to the Prepayment, as defined in and required by Paragraph 2 below), the Loan to Value Ratio, as based on the




 

 

 

 

 

value of the Mortgaged Property set forth in that certain MAI appraisal prepared by Cushman & Wakefield dated October 28, 2010 delivered to Lender, is no greater than seventy percent (70%);

 

 

 

 

c.

As of the Effective Date, based on the twelve (12) month pro-forma management statement submitted by Borrower to Lender on August 25, 2010 for the period from July 1, 2010 to June 30, 2011, the Mortgaged Property has achieved a Debt Service Coverage Ratio of 1.30 as of the most recent Calculation Date immediately preceding the Effective Date;

 

 

 

 

d.

Borrower has delivered the First Extension Notice in a timely manner (which First Extension Notice was dated September 13, 2010);

 

 

 

 

e.

As of the Effective Date, at least eighty-five percent (85%) of the Mortgaged Property is subject to satisfactory bona-fide third party leases, based on the certified rent roll Borrower has delivered to Lender dated October 18, 2010;

 

 

 

 

f.

          2. Prepayment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Paragraph 4 of the Note or elsewhere in the Note, Borrower and Lender acknowledge and agree that Borrower may prepay the Note in part. Accordingly, Borrower has made a prepayment to Lender in the amount of $1,372,885.00 (the “Prepayment”) which Prepayment shall be applied as of the Effective Date, resulting in an outstanding principal balance under the Note of $8,260,000.00.

          3. Definition Deemed Interest Rate. Borrower and Lender acknowledge and agree that the definition of “Deemed Interest Rate” set forth in Paragraph 3(i) of the Note is hereby deleted and replaced in its entirety with the following:

          4. No further obligation to advance. Borrower and Lender hereby acknowledge and agree that the TI/LC Reserve described in Paragraph 27 of the Note has not been advanced and hereafter shall not be available to be advanced by Lender to Borrower. Accordingly, Paragraph 27


of the Note is hereby deleted in its entirety. Lender shall have no further obligation to advance any loan proceeds and the outstanding principal balance as of the Effective Date (applying the Prepayment) shall be as set forth in Paragraph 2 herein.

          5. Ratification. Borrower hereby ratifies and reaffirms its obligations under the Note, as modified hereby, and the Loan Documents, and represents and warrants to Lender that the Loan Documents are valid, binding and in full force and effect and nothing herein contained shall be construed to impair the security or affect the first priority of the lien of the Mortgage, nor impair any rights or powers which Lender or its successors may have for nonperformance of any term of any of the Loan Documents.

          7. No Waiver.

          8. Severability. The terms and provisions of this Agreement are severable, and if any term or provision shall be determined to be superseded, illegal, invalid or otherwise unenforceable in whole or in part pursuant to applicable law by a governmental authority having jurisdiction, such determination shall not in any manner impair or otherwise affect the validity, legality or enforceability of that term or provision in any other jurisdiction or any of the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement in any jurisdiction.

          9. Miscellaneous. This Agreement represents the entire understanding and agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. The parties acknowledge and agree that that if the terms and provisions of the Note in any way conflict with the terms and provisions contained in this Agreement, the terms and provisions herein contained shall prevail.

action against Lender relating to or arising out of the Loan, and the Loan Documents and there are no offsets or defenses by Guarantor to the payment of any amounts required to be paid by Guarantor under the Loan Documents, or otherwise to the enforcement by Lender of the Loan Documents, as modified hereby.

          11. Assignability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Note or any of the Loan Documents, Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that Lender may assign, negotiate, pledge, sell or otherwise grant participations in the Loan to (a) any commercial bank, savings and loan association, savings bank, lending institution, fund, equity group, real estate investment trust or other similar Person (i) organized under the laws of the United States, or any State thereof or the District of Columbia; (ii) organized under the laws of any other country which is a member of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (the “OECD”), or a political subdivision of any such country, provided that such bank is acting through a branch or agency located in the country in which it is organized or another country which is also a member of the OECD or the central bank of any country which is a member of the OECD, and/or (b) any institution, organization or any other type of Person organized under the laws of any other country which is a member of the OECD, or a political subdivision of any such country, for the purpose of acquiring financial assets of commercial banks, savings and loan associations, savings banks, or other lending institutions organized under any of the criteria described in clauses (a) (i) or (ii) above.

          ROBERT MASTERS, being duly sworn, deposes and says that:

          1. I reside at Westchester County, New York, and am the Senior Vice President of Acadia Atlantic Avenue LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Borrower”).

          2. I give this Affidavit, on behalf of Borrower in my capacity as Senior Vice President of Borrower, in connection with that certain Building Loan Agreement, dated as of December 26, 2007, which Building Loan Agreement was filed in the office of the Clerk of Kings County (“County Clerk”) on January 10, 2008 in Control 002427648-01 (as the same may be amended, renewed, modified, extended, replaced or supplemented from time to time, the “Building Loan Agreement”).

          3. The original amount of the Loan under the Building Loan Agreement was up to $11,229,260.33 (the “Original Loan Amount”).

          4. As of the date hereof, the amount of the Loan under the Building Agreement is up to $10,140,619.77 (the “Modified Loan Amount”).

          10. (a) The original net sum available to Borrower from the Original Loan Amount to pay contractors, subcontractors, laborers and materialmen for the Improvement was:


$10,178,856.12, less such amounts as may not be advanced and disbursed under the Building Loan Agreement due to the nonsatisfaction of conditions to the advance and disbursement of such amounts contained in the Building Loan Agreement.

                    (b) The net sum available to Borrower from the Modified Loan Amount to pay contractors, subcontractors, laborers and materialmen for the Improvement is: $10,140,619.77, less such amounts as may not be advanced and disbursed under the Building Loan Agreement due to the nonsatisfaction of conditions to the advance and disbursement of such amounts contained in the Building Loan Agreement, as modified.

          11. The amount previously advanced from the Loan to reimburse Borrower for the Improvement expended by Borrower after the date of the initial advance of the Loan under the Building Loan Agreement but prior to the date hereof is: $10,140,619.77.

The Loans shall be evidenced by a note or notes of Borrower in the form of Exhibit D, duly completed and executed by Borrower (one for each Lender in an amount equal to such Lender’s Individual Commitment, payable for the account of such Lender’s Applicable Lending Office), in an aggregate principal amount equal to the Credit Amount (such notes, as the same may hereafter be amended, modified, extended, severed, assigned, substituted, renewed or restated from time to time (including, without limitation, any substitute notes pursuant to Section 10.10), each, a “Note” and collectively, the “Notes”). The Notes include the existing Notes delivered to Lenders pursuant to the Original Agreement. The Notes shall mature, and all outstanding principal and other sums thereunder shall be paid in full, on the Maturity Date, as the same may be accelerated or extended.

          In case of any loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Lender’s Note, Borrower shall, upon its receipt of an affidavit of an officer of such Lender as to such loss, theft, destruction or mutilation and, in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction, an appropriate indemnification, execute and deliver a replacement Note to such Lender in the same principal amount and otherwise of like tenor as the lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note.

          Section 2.07. Payments and Distributions. Borrower shall make each payment under this Agreement and under the Notes not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the date when due to Administrative Agent at Administrative Agent’s Office in immediately available funds. Administrative Agent will thereafter, on the day of its receipt of each such payment, cause to be distributed to each Lender such Lender’s appropriate share of the payments of principal and interest, and its appropriate share of the payments of other sums, in like funds for the account of such Lender’s Applicable Lending Office. Payments by Borrower hereunder or under the Notes or other Credit Documents shall be made without setoff or counterclaim.

          Except to the extent otherwise provided in this Agreement, whenever any payment to be made under this Agreement or under the Notes is due on any day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of the payment of interest and, if applicable, fees, as the case may be.

17


               Each Lender’s interest in the Credit Facility shall be of equal priority with the interest of each other Lender.

          Section 2.08. Interest.

               (a) The unpaid Principal Amount of the Loan from day to day outstanding which is not past due, shall bear interest at a fluctuating rate of interest equal to the BBA LIBOR Daily Floating Rate plus the Applicable Margin. The “BBA LIBOR Daily Floating Rate” shall mean a fluctuating rate of interest equal to the British Bankers Association LIBOR Rate (“BBA LIBOR”), as published by Reuters (or other commercially available source providing quotations of BBA LIBOR as selected by Administrative Agent from time to time) as determined for each Business Day at approximately 11:00 a.m. London time two (2) London Banking Days prior to the date in question, for U.S. Dollar deposits (for delivery on the first day of such interest period) with a one month term, as adjusted from time to time in Administrative Agent’s sole discretion for reserve requirements, deposit insurance assessment rates and other regulatory costs. If such rate is not available at such time for any reason, then the rate will be determined by such alternative method as reasonably selected by Administrative Agent. A “London Banking Day” is a day on which banks in London are open for business and dealing in offshore dollars. Interest shall be computed for the actual number of days which have elapsed, on the basis of a 360-day year.

               (b) If Administrative Agent determines that no adequate basis exists for determining the BBA LIBOR Daily Floating Rate or that the BBA LIBOR Daily Floating Rate will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to Lenders of funding the Loan, or that any applicable law or regulation or compliance therewith by any Lender prohibits or restricts or makes impossible the charging of interest based on the BBA LIBOR Daily Floating Rate and such Lender so notifies Administrative Agent and Borrower, then until Administrative Agent notifies Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, interest shall accrue and be payable on the unpaid principal balance of this Loan from the date Administrative Agent so notifies Borrower until the Maturity Date of this Loan (whether by acceleration, declaration, extension or otherwise) at a fluctuating rate of interest equal to the Prime Based Rate. Each Lender agrees to designate a different Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for such notice and will not, in the good faith judgment of such Lender, otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender.

          Section 2.09. Default Rate. If any amount payable by Borrower under any Credit Document is not paid when due (without regard to any applicable grace periods), such amount shall thereafter bear interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

          Section 2.10. Intentionally Omitted.

          Section 2.11. Intentionally Omitted.

18


          Section 2.12. Late Payment Premium. Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent for the account of Lenders a late payment premium in the amount of 5% of any payments of principal or interest of any Loan made more than ten (10) days after the due date thereof, which late payment premium shall be due with any such late payment.

          Section 2.13. Voluntary Prepayments. Borrower may, upon at least five (5) Business Days’ notice (which notice shall be irrevocable) to Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify each Lender), prepay the Principal Amount, in whole or part, without premium or penalty; provided, however, that (i) any partial prepayment under this Section shall be in a principal amount of not less than $100,000 and an integral multiple of $25,000 and (ii) each prepayment under this Section shall include all interest accrued on the amount of principal prepaid (and all late charges and other sums that may be payable) through the date of prepayment. Amounts prepaid may be not reborrowed.

          Section 2.14. Adverse Events Regarding Investors. In accordance with Section 6.06, Borrower shall promptly notify Administrative Agent of the occurrence of any one of the following events or existence of any one of the following conditions (each, an “Adverse Investor Event”):

 

 

 

          (i) such Investor or its Sponsor or Responsible Party or Investor Guarantor, if any, shall commence a voluntary case or other proceeding seeking liquidation, reorganization or other relief with respect to itself or its debts under any bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect or seeking the appointment of a trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian or other similar official of it or any substantial part of its property, or shall consent to any such relief or to the appointment of or taking possession by any such official in an involuntary case or other proceeding commenced against it, or shall make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, or shall fail generally to pay its debts as they become due;

 

 

 

          (ii) an involuntary case or other proceeding shall be commenced against such Investor or its Sponsor or Responsible Party or Investor Guarantor, if any, seeking liquidation, reorganization or other relief with respect to it or its debts under any bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect or seeking the appointment of a trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian or other similar official of it or any substantial part of its property, and such involuntary case or other proceeding shall remain undismissed and unstayed for a period of sixty (60) days; or an order for relief shall be entered against such Investor or its Sponsor or Responsible Party or Investor Guarantor, if any, under the federal bankruptcy laws as now or hereafter in effect;

19



 

 

 

from or default under, or breach the terms of, the Stockholders Agreement or the Operating Agreement in any material respect;

 

 

 

          (iv) one or more judgments or decrees in an aggregate amount equal to ten percent (10%) or more of its net worth shall be entered by a court or courts of competent jurisdiction against such Investor or its Sponsor or Responsible Party or Investor Guarantor, if any (other than any judgment as to which, and only to the extent, a reputable insurance company has acknowledged coverage of such claim in writing or has acknowledged in writing its willingness to defend any such claim under a reservation of rights), and (A) any such judgments or decrees shall not be stayed, discharged, paid, bonded or vacated within thirty (30) days or (B) enforcement proceedings shall be commenced by any creditor on any such judgments or decrees;

 

 

 

          (v) such Investor or its Investor Guarantor, if any, shall breach any obligation acknowledged under or made to Administrative Agent and Lenders in its Investor Acknowledgment (excluding any obligation to honor a Capital Call made by Administrative Agent, as Administrative Agent, Lenders and Borrower shall agree, contemporaneously herewith, to terminate the Capital Contributions Pledge Agreement and Administrative Agent’s rights to make Capital Calls), in any guaranty related to such Investor Acknowledgment or in the Stockholders Agreement in any material respect, or any representation, warranty, certification or statement made by or on behalf of such Investor or its Investor Guarantor, if any, in the Stockholders Agreement, its Investor Acknowledgment, in any guaranty related to such Investor Acknowledgment or in any certificate, financial statement or other document delivered pursuant to this Agreement or such documents, shall have been false or misleading when made and such false or misleading statements could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the ability of such Investor to fund its Capital Commitment;

 

 

 

          (vi) if either Moody’s and/or S&P downgrade the credit rating of, or cease to provide a credit rating for, any Investor or its Investor Guarantor, if any, which as of the date hereof has a credit rating from Moody’s and/or S&P;

 

 

 

          (vii) the transfer or assignment of its indirect interest in Borrower, or withdrawal from, Borrower or Acadia Investors II by such Investor;

          Section 2.15. Mandatory Prepayments. If on any date the Aggregate Outstanding Extensions of Credit of all Lenders exceed the Available Commitment, Borrower shall immediately on such date prepay the Loans in an amount equal to the amount of such excess.

          Section 2.16. Intentionally Omitted.

As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement or any other Credit Document, Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, in accordance with instructions signed by the Required Lenders, and such instructions of the Required Lenders and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding on all Lenders and any other holder of all or any portion of the Credit Facility or any Participation therein.

          Section 9.03. Defaults. Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge of the occurrence of a Default or of an Event of Default unless Administrative Agent has actual knowledge thereof or has received notice from a Lender or Borrower specifying such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default.” In the event that Administrative Agent has such actual knowledge or receives such a notice of the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default, Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to Lenders. Administrative Agent shall promptly send to each Lender a copy of any notice of a Default or Event of Default that Administrative Agent sends to Borrower or Guarantor. Administrative Agent, following consultation with Lenders, shall (subject to Section 9.07 and Section 10.09) take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default which is continuing, including with respect to the exercise of remedies or the realization on, or operation or disposition of, any or all of the Collateral or any other collateral for the Obligations, as shall be directed by the Required Lenders; provided, however, that, unless and until Administrative Agent shall

41


have received such directions, Administrative Agent may take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem to be in the best interest of Lenders. In no event shall Administrative Agent be required to take any such action which it determines would be contrary to the Credit Documents or to Law. Each of the Lenders acknowledges and agrees that no individual Lender may separately enforce or exercise any of the provisions of any of the Credit Documents (including, without limitation, the Notes) other than through Administrative Agent.

          Section 9.04. Rights of Administrative Agent as Lender. With respect to its Note and interest in the Credit Facility, the Person serving as Administrative Agent in its capacity as a Lender hereunder shall have the same rights and powers hereunder as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not acting as Administrative Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include the Person serving as Administrative Agent in its capacity as a Lender. The Person serving as Administrative Agent and its affiliates may (without having to account therefor to any Lender) accept deposits from, lend money to (on a secured or unsecured basis), and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust or other business with, Borrower as if it were not acting as Administrative Agent.

          Section 9.05. Sharing of Costs by Lenders; Indemnification of Administrative Agent. Each Lender shall pay its ratable share, based on the respective outstanding principal balances under its Note and the other Notes, of any expenses incurred (and not paid or reimbursed by Borrower after demand for payment is made by Administrative Agent) by or on behalf of Lenders in connection with any Default or Event of Default, including, without limitation, costs of enforcement of the Credit Documents to preserve the lien of any of the Security Documents or to preserve or protect the Collateral. In the event a Lender fails to pay its share of expenses as aforesaid, and all or a portion of such unpaid amount is paid by Administrative Agent and/or one or more of the other Lenders, then the defaulting Lender shall reimburse Administrative Agent and/or the other Lender(s) for the portion of such unpaid amount paid by it or them, as the case may be, together with interest thereon at the Prime Based Rate from the date of payment by Administrative Agent and/or the other Lender(s). In addition, each Lender agrees to reimburse and indemnify Administrative Agent (to the extent it is not paid by on or behalf of Borrower, after demand for payment is made by Administrative Agent, under Section 10.16 or under the applicable provisions of any other Credit Document, but without limiting the obligation of Borrower under said Section 10.16 or such provisions), for such Lender’s ratable share, based upon the respective outstanding principal balances under its Note and the other Notes, of any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind and nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any other documents contemplated by or referred to herein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (including, without limitation, the costs and expenses which Borrower is obligated to pay under Section 10.16 or under the applicable provisions of any other Credit Document) or the enforcement of any of the terms hereof or thereof or of any such other documents or instruments; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for (i) any of the foregoing to the extent they arise from the gross

42


negligence or willful misconduct of the party to be indemnified or (ii) any loss of principal or interest with respect to the Note or interest in the Credit Facility of the Person serving as Administrative Agent.

          Section 9.06. Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance on Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own analysis of the Collateral and of the credit of Borrower and Guarantor, and its own decision to enter into this Agreement, and that it will, independently and without reliance upon Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own analysis and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement or any other Credit Document. Administrative Agent shall not be required to keep itself informed as to the performance or observance by Borrower of this Agreement or any other Credit Document or any other document referred to or provided for herein or therein or to inspect the properties or books of Borrower. Except for notices, reports and other documents and information expressly required to be furnished to Lenders by Administrative Agent hereunder, Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the affairs, financial condition or business of Borrower or Guarantor or any of their affiliates which may come into the possession of Administrative Agent or any of its affiliates. Administrative Agent shall not be required to file this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any document or instrument referred to herein or therein, for record or give notice of this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any document or instrument referred to herein or therein, to anyone.

          Section 9.07. Failure of Administrative Agent to Act. Except for action expressly required of Administrative Agent hereunder, Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully justified in failing or refusing to act hereunder unless it shall have received further assurances (which may include cash collateral) of the indemnification obligations of Lenders under Section 9.05 in respect of any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. If any indemnity furnished to Administrative Agent for any purpose shall, in the opinion of Administrative Agent, be insufficient or become impaired, Administrative Agent may call for additional indemnity (other than against its gross negligence or willful misconduct) and cease, or not commence, the action indemnified against until such additional indemnity is furnished.

          Section 9.08. Resignation or Removal of Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent may resign, or be removed with cause by the Required Lenders, at any time provided that Borrower and the other Lenders shall be promptly notified thereof. Upon such resignation or removal of Administrative Agent, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which successor Administrative Agent shall (provided there exists no Event of Default) be subject to Borrower’s approval, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders, and shall have accepted such appointment, within twenty (20) days after the resignation or the

43


Required Lenders’ removal of the retiring Administrative Agent, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be one of the Lenders, within ten (10) days. The Required Lenders or the retiring Administrative Agent, as the case may be, shall upon the appointment of a successor Administrative Agent promptly so notify Borrower and the other Lenders. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article IX shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as Administrative Agent.

          Section 9.09. Amendments Concerning Agency Function. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Administrative Agent shall not be bound by any waiver, amendment, supplement or modification of this Agreement or any other Credit Document which affects its duties, rights, and/or function hereunder or thereunder unless it shall have given its prior written consent thereto.

          Section 9.10. Liability of Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall not have any liabilities or responsibilities to Borrower on account of the failure of any Lender to perform its obligations hereunder or to any Lender on account of the failure of Borrower to perform its obligations hereunder or under any other Credit Document.

          Section 9.11. Transfer of Agency Function. Without the consent of Borrower or any Lender, Administrative Agent may at any time or from time to time transfer its functions as Administrative Agent hereunder to any of its offices wherever located in the United States, provided that Administrative Agent shall promptly notify Borrower and Lenders thereof.

          Section 9.12. Non-Receipt of Funds by Administrative Agent; Adjustments.

               (a) Unless Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender or Borrower (either one as appropriate being the “Payor”) prior to the date on which such Lender is to make payment hereunder to Administrative Agent of proceeds of any Loan or Borrower is to make payment to Administrative Agent, as the case may be (either such payment being a “Required Payment”), which notice shall be effective upon receipt, that the Payor will not make the Required Payment in full to Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent may assume that the Required Payment has been made in full to Administrative Agent on such date, and Administrative Agent in its sole discretion may, but shall not be obligated to, in reliance upon such assumption, make the amount thereof available to the intended recipient on such date. If and to the extent the Payor shall not have in fact so made the Required Payment in full to Administrative Agent, the recipient of such payment shall repay to Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount made available to it together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such

44


amount was so made available by Administrative Agent until the date Administrative Agent recovers such amount, at the Federal Funds Rate.

               (b) If, after Administrative Agent has paid each Lender’s share of any payment received or applied by Administrative Agent in respect of the Credit Facility, that payment is rescinded or must otherwise be returned or paid over by Administrative Agent, whether pursuant to any bankruptcy or insolvency Law, or otherwise, such Lender shall, at Administrative Agent’s request, promptly return its share of such payment to Administrative Agent, together with such Lender’s proportionate share of any interest or other amount required to be paid by Administrative Agent with respect to such payment. In addition, if a court of competent jurisdiction shall adjudge that any amount received and distributed by Administrative Agent is to be repaid, each Person to whom any such distribution shall have been made shall either repay to Administrative Agent its share of the amount so adjudged to be repaid or shall pay over the same in such manner and to such Persons as shall be determined by such court.

          Section 9.13. Withholding Taxes. Each Lender represents that it is entitled to receive any payments to be made to it hereunder without the withholding of any tax and will furnish to Administrative Agent such forms, certifications, statements and other documents as Administrative Agent may reasonably request from time to time to evidence such Lender’s exemption from the withholding of any tax imposed by any jurisdiction or to enable Administrative Agent to comply with any applicable Laws relating thereto. Without limiting the effect of the foregoing, if any Lender is not created or organized under the Laws of the United States or any state thereof, such Lender will furnish to Administrative Agent Form W-8ECI or Form W-8BEN of the U.S. Internal Revenue Service, or such other forms, certifications, statements or documents, duly executed and completed by such Lender, as evidence of such Lender’s complete exemption from the withholding of United States tax with respect thereto. Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to make any payments hereunder to such Lender in respect of the Credit Facility until such Lender shall have furnished to Administrative Agent the requested form, certification, statement or document.

          Section 9.14. Sharing of Payments among Lenders. If a Lender shall obtain payment of any principal of its Note or of interest thereon through the exercise of any right of setoff, banker’s lien or counterclaim, or by any other means (including direct payment), and such payment results in such Lender receiving a greater payment than it would have been entitled to had such payment been paid directly to Administrative Agent for disbursement to Lenders, then such Lender shall promptly purchase for cash from the other Lenders Participations in the Credit Facility in such amounts, and make such other adjustments from time to time as shall be equitable, to the end that all Lenders shall share ratably the benefit of such payment. To such end Lenders shall make appropriate adjustments among themselves (by the resale of Participations sold or otherwise) if such payment is rescinded or must otherwise be restored.

          Section 9.15. Possession of Documents. Each Lender shall maintain possession of its own Note. Administrative Agent shall hold all other Credit Documents and related documents in its possession and maintain separate records and accounts with respect to

45


the Credit Facility, reflecting the interests of Lenders in the Credit Facility, and shall permit Lenders and their representatives access at all reasonable times to inspect such Credit Documents, related documents, records and accounts.

ARTICLE X

GENERAL CONDITIONS AND PROVISIONS

          Section 10.01. Advance Not Waiver. Any Loan by any Lender hereunder made prior to or without the fulfillment by Borrower of all of the conditions precedent thereto, whether or not known to Lenders, shall not constitute a waiver by Administrative Agent or Lenders of the requirement that all conditions, including the non-performed conditions, shall be required with respect to all future Loans.

          Section 10.02. Authorization to Advance for Interest, Etc. Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes Administrative Agent and Lenders to make Loans to pay interest accrued on the Notes as it comes due, or to satisfy any of the conditions hereof, including, without limitation, the payment of the fees and expenses of Administrative Agent’s Counsel.

          Section 10.03. Concerning Irrevocable Authorizations. Any and all Loans made at any time by any Lender pursuant to the irrevocable authorizations granted by Sections 2.17 and 10.02 shall require no further direction, authorization or request for disbursement from Borrower and may be made whether or not there exists a Default or Event of Default. Any and all such disbursements shall be added to the outstanding principal balance evidenced by the Notes and shall be secured by the Security Documents. The aforesaid authorizations shall (i) not prevent Borrower from paying the interest, or from satisfying the conditions and obligations referred to in said Sections, out of its own funds, (ii) in no event be construed so as to relieve Borrower or others from their obligations to pay interest as and when due under the Notes, or to satisfy such conditions and obligations and (iii) in no event obligate any Lender to disburse proceeds of the Loans for any such purposes.

          Section 10.04. Ratification of Requisition by Acceptance of Advance. Borrower agrees that, by its acceptance of any proceeds of any Loan hereunder, it shall be bound in all respects by the Requisition submitted on its behalf in connection therewith with the same force and effect as if Borrower had itself executed and submitted such Requisition and whether or not such Requisition is executed and/or submitted by an authorized person.

          Section 10.05. No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is solely for the benefit of Administrative Agent, Lenders and Borrower. All conditions of the obligations of Lenders to make credit available hereunder are imposed solely and exclusively for the benefit of Lenders and may be freely waived or modified in whole or in part by Lenders at any time if in their sole discretion they deem it advisable to do so, and no person other than Borrower (provided, however, that all conditions have been satisfied) shall have

46


standing to require Lenders to make any credit available or to be a beneficiary of this Agreement.

          Section 10.06. Documentation Etc. Satisfactory. All documentation and proceedings deemed by Administrative Agent or Administrative Agent’s Counsel to be necessary or required in connection herewith and the documents relating hereto shall be subject to the prior approval of, and satisfactory to, both of them as to form and substance. In addition, the Persons responsible for the execution and delivery of, and signatories to, all of such documentation, shall be acceptable to, and subject to the approval of, Administrative Agent and Administrative Agent’s Counsel.

          Section 10.07. Administrative Agent’s and Lenders’ Determination Conclusive.

Except as expressly provided otherwise, all notices, demands, consents, approvals and statements required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been sufficiently given or served for all purposes when presented personally, three (3) days after mailing by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, or one (1) day after delivery to a nationally recognized overnight courier service providing evidence of the date of delivery, addressed to a party at its address on the signature page hereof or of the applicable Assignment and Assumption Agreement, or at such other address of which a party shall have notified the party giving such notice in writing in accordance with the foregoing requirements.

          Section 10.09. Amendments and Waivers. No amendment or material waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Credit Document, nor consent to any material departure by Borrower or Guarantor therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the party against whom such amendment, waiver or consent is sought to be enforced (it being understood, however, that the signatures of the Required Lenders and, solely for purposes of its acknowledgement thereof, Administrative Agent, shall be sufficient to bind Lenders to any such amendment, waiver or consent), and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided, however, that no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by all Lenders, do any of the following: (i) reduce the principal of, or interest on, the Notes or any fees due hereunder or any other amount due hereunder or under any other Credit Document; (ii) postpone any date fixed for any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Notes or any fees due hereunder or any other amount due hereunder or under any other Credit Document; (iii) change the definition of Required Lenders; (iv) release any material portion of the Collateral or other collateral for the Obligations other than in accordance with the Credit Documents; (v) amend this Section, Section 2.17(d) or any provision requiring the consent of all Lenders; (vi) release, in whole or in part,

Guarantor other than in accordance with the Credit Documents; or (vii) increase the Credit Amount. Without limiting the foregoing, acceptance by Administrative Agent or Lenders of any sum required to be paid pursuant hereto or pursuant to any other Credit Document, after its due date, or in an amount less than the sum then due, shall not constitute a waiver by Administrative Agent or Lenders of their right to require prompt payment when due of all other such sums or to declare a default or to exercise such other rights provided herein or in the other Credit Documents for such late or reduced payment.

               All communications from Administrative Agent to Lenders requesting Lenders’ determination, consent, approval or disapproval (i) shall be given in the form of a written notice to each Lender, (ii) shall be accompanied by or include a description or copy of the matter or thing as to which such determination, approval, consent or disapproval is requested and (iii) shall include Administrative Agent’s recommended course of action or determination in respect thereof. Each Lender shall reply promptly, but in any event within ten (10) Business Days (or five (5) Business Days with respect to any decision to accelerate or stop acceleration of any of the Obligations) after receipt of the request therefor by Administrative Agent (the “Lender Reply Period”). Unless a Lender shall give written notice to Administrative Agent that it objects to the recommendation or determination of Administrative Agent (together with a written explanation of the reasons behind such objection) within the Lender Reply Period, such Lender shall be deemed to have approved or consented to such recommendation or determination.

          Section 10.10. Assignment; Participation. Any Lender may at any time grant to one or more banks or other institutions not affiliated with Borrower or Guarantor (each a “Participant”) participating interests in its Pro Rata Share of the Credit Facility (the “Participations”). In the event of any such grant by a Lender of a Participation to a Participant, such Lender shall remain responsible for the performance of its obligations hereunder, and Borrower, each other Lender and Administrative Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations hereunder. Any agreement pursuant to which any Lender may grant a Participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right and responsibility to enforce the obligations of Borrower hereunder and under any other Credit Document, including, without limitation, the right to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Credit Document; provided that such participation agreement may provide that such Lender will not agree to any modification, amendment or waiver described in clauses (i) through (vii) of Section 10.09 without the consent of the Participant.

               Upon request by Borrower, each Lender agrees to provide Borrower with notice of all Participations sold by such Lender. Borrower agrees to provide all assistance reasonably requested by a Lender to enable such Lender to sell Participations as aforesaid, or make assignments of its interest in the Credit Facility as hereinafter provided in this Section.

               A Lender may at any time assign to any bank or other institution not affiliated with Borrower or Guarantor with the consent of Administrative Agent, which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed (such assignee, a “Consented Assignee”),

48


or to one or more banks or other institutions which are majority owned subsidiaries of a Lender or of the parent of a Lender (each Consented Assignee or subsidiary bank or institution, an “Assignee”) all or a proportionate part of all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and its Note and the other Credit Documents, and such Assignee shall assume rights and obligations, pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption Agreement executed by such Assignee and the assigning Lender, provided that, after giving effect to such assignment, the Assignee’s portion of the Credit Facility and, in the case of a partial assignment of a Lender’s interest, the assigning Lender’s portion of the Credit Facility will each be equal to or greater than $5,000,000. Upon (i) execution and delivery of such instrument, (ii) payment by such Assignee to the assigning Lender of an amount equal to the purchase price agreed between such Lender and such Assignee and (iii) payment by such Assignee to Administrative Agent of a fee, for Administrative Agent’s own account, in the amount of $3,500, such Assignee shall be a party to this Agreement and shall have all the rights and obligations of a Lender as set forth in such Assignment and Assumption Agreement, and the assigning Lender shall be released from its obligations hereunder to a corresponding extent, and no further consent or action by any party shall be required. Upon the consummation of any assignment pursuant to this paragraph, substitute notes, in the form of Exhibit D, shall be issued to the assigning Lender (in the case of a partial assignment) and Assignee by Borrower, in exchange for the return of the assigning Lender’s original Note. Without limiting the provisions of Section 2.04, all such substitute notes shall constitute “Notes” and the obligations evidenced by such substitute notes shall constitute obligations secured by the Security Documents. In connection with Borrower’s execution of substitute notes as aforesaid, Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent such evidence of the due authorization, execution and delivery of the substitute notes and any related documents as Administrative Agent may reasonably request. If the Assignee is not incorporated under the Laws of the United States or a state thereof, it shall, prior to the first date on which interest or fees are payable hereunder for its account, deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent certification as to exemption from deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes in accordance with Section 9.13.

               Borrower, Administrative Agent and Lenders shall execute such modifications to the Credit Documents as shall, in the reasonable judgment of Administrative Agent, be necessary or desirable in connection with assignments in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Section.

               Any Lender may at any time assign all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement and its Note to a Federal Reserve Bank. No such assignment shall release the transferor Lender from its obligations hereunder.

               Borrower recognizes that in connection with a Lender’s selling of Participations or making of assignments, any or all documentation, financial statements, appraisals and other data, or copies thereof, relevant to Borrower, Guarantor or the Credit Facility may be exhibited to and retained by any such Participant or Assignee or prospective Participant or Assignee.

49


          Section 10.11. Setoff. In addition to (and without limitation of) any right of setoff, bankers’ lien or counterclaim Administrative Agent or any Lender may otherwise have, Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be entitled to offset balances (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) held by it for the account of Borrower at any of Administrative Agent’s or such Lender’s offices against any amount payable by Borrower to Administrative Agent or such Lender hereunder or under any other Credit Document which is not paid when due (regardless of whether such balances are then due to Borrower), in which case it shall promptly notify Borrower and (in the case of a Lender) Administrative Agent thereof; provided, however, that Administrative Agent’s or such Lender’s failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity thereof.

          Section 10.12. Successors and Assigns. Except as herein provided, this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Borrower, Administrative Agent and Lenders and their respective heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower may not assign, transfer or set over to another, in whole or in part, all or any part of its benefits, rights, duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Credit Documents, including, but not limited to, performance of and compliance with conditions hereof and the right to receive the proceeds of Loans made under, and other extensions of credit under, the Credit Facility without the prior written consent of all of the Lenders (and any attempted such assignment, transfer or setting over without such consent shall be null and void).

          Section 10.13. Severability. The provisions hereof are intended to be severable. Any provisions hereof, or the application thereof to any Person or circumstance, which, for any reason, in whole or in part, is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof (or the remaining portions of such provision) or the application thereof to any other Person or circumstance, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision (or portion thereof) or the application thereof to any Person or circumstance in any other jurisdiction.

          Section 10.14. Non-Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay on Administrative Agent’s or any Lender’s part in exercising any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under any of the other Credit Documents or provided by law (hereinafter in this Section, each a “Remedy”) shall operate as a waiver of any such Remedy or shall be deemed to constitute Administrative Agent’s or any Lender’s acquiescence in any default by Borrower or Guarantor under any of said documents. A waiver by Administrative Agent or any Lender of any Remedy on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any other or future exercise thereof or of any other Remedy. The Remedies are cumulative, may be exercised singly or concurrently and are not exclusive of any other Remedies.

          Section 10.15. Certain Waivers. Each Credit Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives (i) promptness and diligence, (ii) notice of any actions taken by Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder or under any other Credit Document or any other agreement or instrument relating hereto or thereto except to the extent

50


otherwise provided herein, (iii) all other notices, demands and protests, and all other formalities of every kind, in connection with the enforcement of a Credit Party’s obligations hereunder and under the other Credit Documents, the omission of or delay in which, but for the provisions of this Section, might constitute grounds for relieving any Credit Party of any of its obligations hereunder or under the other Credit Documents, (iv) any requirement that Administrative Agent or any Lender protect, secure, perfect or insure any lien on any collateral for the Obligations or exhaust any right or take any action against Borrower, any other Credit Party, Guarantor or any other Person or against any collateral for the Obligations, (v) any right or claim of right to cause a marshalling of Borrower’s assets and (vi) all rights of subrogation or contribution, whether arising by contract or operation of law or otherwise by reason of payment by Borrower pursuant hereto or pursuant to any other Credit Document. EACH CREDIT PARTY FURTHER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT BY OR ON BEHALF OF ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR LENDERS WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE NOTES OR THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS OR OTHERWISE IN RESPECT OF THE LOANS OR THE CREDIT FACILITY, ANY AND EVERY RIGHT SUCH CREDIT PARTY MAY HAVE TO (W) INJUNCTIVE RELIEF, (X) A TRIAL BY JURY, (Y) INTERPOSE ANY COUNTERCLAIM THEREIN, OTHER THAN A COMPULSORY COUNTERCLAIM, AND/OR (Z) HAVE THE SAME CONSOLIDATED WITH ANY OTHER OR SEPARATE SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING. NOTHING CONTAINED IN THE IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING SENTENCE SHALL PREVENT OR PROHIBIT BORROWER FROM INSTITUTING OR MAINTAINING A SEPARATE ACTION AGAINST ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR LENDERS WITH RESPECT TO ANY ASSERTED CLAIM.

          Section 10.16. Expenses; Indemnification. Borrower covenants and agrees to pay all costs, expenses and charges (including, without limitation, all fees and charges of engineers, appraisers and Administrative Agent’s Counsel) incurred by Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection with (i) the preparation for and consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or for the performance hereof and of the other Credit Documents, and for any services which may be required in addition to those normally and reasonably contemplated hereby and (ii) the enforcement hereof or of any or all of the other Credit Documents. If Borrower fails to pay promptly any costs, charges or expense required to be paid by it as aforesaid, and Administrative Agent or any Lender pays such costs, charges or expenses, Borrower shall reimburse Administrative Agent or such Lender, as appropriate, on demand for the amounts so paid, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate. Borrower further agrees to indemnify Administrative Agent and each Lender and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents from, and hold each of them harmless against, (x) any and all losses arising out of or by reason of any investigation or litigation or other proceedings (including any threatened investigation or litigation or other proceedings) relating to any actual or proposed use by Borrower of the proceeds of any of the Loans or of any other extension of credit under the Credit Facility, including, without limitation, the fees and disbursements of counsel incurred in connection with any such investigation, litigation or other proceedings and (y) any and all claims, actions, suits, proceedings, costs, expenses, losses, damages and

51


liabilities of any kind, including in tort, penalties and interest, arising out or by reason of any matter relating, directly or indirectly, to the ownership, condition, development, construction, sale, rental or financing of any of Borrower’s Investments or any part thereof (but excluding any such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses incurred solely by reason of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party to be indemnified). The obligations of Borrower under this Section and under Sections 3.01, 3.03, 6.03 and 6.04 shall survive the repayment of all amounts due under or in connection with any of the Credit Documents and the termination of the Credit Facility.

          Section 10.17. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument, and any party hereto may execute this Agreement by signing any such counterpart.

          Section 10.18. Governing Law; Jurisdiction. This Agreement and the rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall in all respects be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the Laws of the State of New York (without giving effect to New York’s principles of conflicts of law). Each Credit Party, Administrative Agent and each Lender hereby irrevocably submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State or Federal court sitting in The City of New York over any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, and each Credit Party hereby agrees and consents that, in addition to any methods of service of process provided for under applicable Law, all service of process in any such suit, action or proceeding in any New York State or Federal court sitting in The City of New York (or such other county in New York State) may be made by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, directed to such Credit Party at the address for Borrower indicated on the signature page hereof, and service so made shall be complete five (5) days after the same shall have been so mailed.

          Section 10.19. Integration. The Credit Documents and the Supplemental Fee Letter constitute the entire agreement among Administrative Agent, Borrower and Lenders relating to the transactions contemplated thereby (except with respect to agreements among Lenders or with Administrative Agent relating solely to compensation, consideration and the syndication of the Credit Facility) and supersede any prior oral or written statements or agreements with respect to such transactions.

          Section 10.20. Gross-Up for Taxes. All payments made by Borrower under this Agreement and the Notes shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any present or future income, stamp or other taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings, now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Governmental Authority, excluding income taxes and franchise or other taxes (imposed in lieu of income taxes) imposed on a Lender as a result of a present or former connection between such Lender and the jurisdiction of the Governmental Authority imposing such tax or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (other than any such connection arising solely from such Lender’s having executed, delivered or performed its obligations or received a payment under, or enforced, this Agreement or its Note). If any such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings (“Non-

52



Excluded Taxes”) are required to be withheld from any amounts payable to such Lender hereunder or under its Note, the amounts so payable to such Lender shall be increased to the extent necessary to yield to such Lender (after payment of all Non-Excluded Taxes) interest or any such other amounts payable with respect to the Credit Facility at the rates or in the amounts specified in this Agreement and its Note; provided, however, that Borrower shall not be required to increase any such amounts payable to such Lender if such Lender is not organized under the Laws of the United States or a state thereof and such Lender fails to comply with the requirements of Section 9.13. Whenever any Non-Excluded Taxes are payable by Borrower, as promptly as possible thereafter Borrower shall send to Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender a certified copy of an original official receipt received by Borrower showing payment thereof. If Borrower fails to pay any Non-Excluded Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to Administrative Agent the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, Borrower shall indemnify such Lender for any incremental taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by such Lender as a result of any such failure. The agreements in this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of all amounts payable hereunder.

ARTICLE XI

PARTICULAR PROVISIONS

               The foregoing Articles of this Agreement are subject to the following further provisions:

          Section 11.01. Capital Calls; Subscription Account.

               (a) Borrower and Acadia Investors II shall direct all Investors to wire transfer to the Subscription Account all monies or sums paid or to be paid by any Investor to Borrower or Managing Member to fund its Capital Contribution as and when such Investor is required pursuant to the Operating Agreement and/or the Stockholders Agreement to fund such Capital Contribution. In addition, to the extent that Borrower or Acadia Investors II receives any Capital Contributions from the Investors during the term of this Agreement, they shall immediately deposit such Capital Contributions upon receipt into the Subscription Account and to the extent that Borrower or Acadia Investors II receives any amounts from an Investor while an Event of Default is continuing, they shall immediately deposit such amounts upon receipt into the Subscription Account.

               (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, it is expressly understood and agreed that neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender undertakes any duties, responsibilities, or liabilities with respect to the Capital Calls, the Stockholder Agreement or the Operating Agreement. Neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall be required to refer to Borrower’s organizational documents or the Stockholders Agreement or take any other action with respect to any other matter which might arise in connection with Borrower’s organizational documents or the Stockholder Agreement or any Capital Call. Neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender has any duty to

53


determine or inquire into any happening or occurrence or any performance or failure of performance of Borrower. Neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender has any duty to inquire into the use, purpose, or reasons for the making of any Capital Call or with respect to the investment or use of the proceeds thereof.

               (c) Provided that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing, Administrative Agent shall release funds from the Subscription Account to Borrower for Approved Uses, subject to the terms hereof and of the Cash Collateral Agreement. Except as provided in Section 11.01(f), upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or any Event of Default, Borrower shall have no right to any funds from the Subscription Account.

               (d) Borrower and Acadia Investors II hereby irrevocably authorize and direct Lenders, acting through Administrative Agent, at any time following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default while any Obligations are outstanding, to charge from time to time the Subscription Account and any other accounts of Borrower at Lenders for amounts due Lenders or any of them hereunder and under the Notes and the other Credit Documents.

               (e) Intentionally Omitted.

               (f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, Borrower and Acadia Investors II shall be permitted to make a single Capital Call provided (i) the proceeds of such Capital Call are deposited into the Subscription Account, (ii) Borrower directs that such proceeds together with any other funds held in the Subscription Account shall be released by Administrative Agent to prepay the Notes in their entirety and/or held by Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, as cash collateral for the Obligations, including, without limitation, the full amount of the Aggregate Outstanding Extensions of Credit, for application by Administrative Agent and Lenders to amounts due Administrative Agent and Lenders hereunder until the expiration, or return for cancellation, of all Letters of Credit and payment of all other outstanding Obligations hereunder, together with costs, expenses, funding losses, interest and penalties incurred therein as expressly contemplated in this Agreement and (iii) Borrower terminates the Credit Facility and agrees that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default Borrower shall have no further right to the making of any Loan hereunder.

               (g) The application by Lenders of such funds hereunder shall, unless Administrative Agent shall agree otherwise in writing, be first to the payment of reasonable costs and expenses due Lenders under this Agreement, second to the payment of accrued interest due hereunder or under the Notes and last to the payment of the principal due hereunder. Borrower acknowledges that all funds so transferred into the Subscription Account shall be the property of Borrower only and not subject to any Lien of any party, other than Administrative Agent and Lenders.

54


          Section 11.02. Subordination of Claims.

               (a) Until the Obligations shall be paid and satisfied in full and except as expressly permitted under Section 11.01, Borrower, Managing Member and Acadia Investors II shall not receive or collect, directly or indirectly, from any Investor any amount upon the Investor Claims other than pursuant to this Section 11.02.

               (b) Without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent, after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default Borrower and Acadia Investors II shall not (i) exercise or enforce any creditor or other right it may have against an Investor on account of any Investor Claims, (ii) foreclose, repossess, sequester or otherwise take steps or institute any action or proceedings (judicial or otherwise, including, without limitation, the commencement of, or joinder in, any liquidation, bankruptcy, rearrangement, debtor’s relief or insolvency proceeding) to enforce any liens, mortgages, deeds of trust, security interest, collateral rights, judgments or other encumbrances on assets of such Investor held by Borrower and/or Acadia Investors II as security for any Investor Claims, or (iii) exercise any rights or remedies against an Investor under a Stockholders Agreement or the Operating Agreement.

               (c) Managing Member hereby agrees that its right to receive the Asset Management Fees as set forth in the Operating Agreement is subordinated to the Obligations, provided, however, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Acadia Investors II shall be entitled to receive the Asset Management Fees pursuant to the terms of the Operating Agreement.

Re:

Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of December 22, 2010 (the “Credit Agreement”; capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Credit Agreement) among us, as Borrower, Acadia Realty Acquisition II, LLC, Acadia Investors II, Inc., the Lenders named therein, and you, as Administrative Agent for said Lenders

Dear Sir/Madam:

          In connection with the captioned Credit Agreement, we hereby designate any of the following persons to give to you instructions, including notices required pursuant to the Credit Agreement, orally, by telephone or teleprocess, or in writing:

 

 

 

Michael Nelsen

 

Robert Masters

 

Richard Hartmann

          Instructions may be honored on the oral, telephonic, teleprocess or written instructions of anyone purporting to be any one of the above designated persons even if the instructions are for the benefit of the person delivering them. We will furnish you with written confirmation of each such instruction signed by any person designated above (including any telecopy which appears to bear the signature of any person designated above) on the same day that the instruction is provided to you, but your responsibility with respect to any instruction shall not be affected by your failure to receive such confirmation or by its contents.

          You and Lenders shall be fully protected in, and shall incur no liability to us for, acting upon any instructions which you in good faith believe to have been given by any person designated above, and in no event shall you or Lenders be liable for special, consequential or punitive damages. In addition, we agree to hold you and Lenders and your and their respective agents harmless from any and all liability, loss and expense arising directly or indirectly out of instructions that we provide to you in connection with


the Credit Agreement except for liability, loss or expense occasioned by your gross negligence or willful misconduct.

          Upon notice to us, you may, at your option, refuse to execute any instruction, or part thereof, without you or any Lender incurring any responsibility for any loss, liability or expense arising out of such refusal if you in good faith believe that the person delivering the instruction is not one of the persons designated above or if the instruction is not accompanied by an authentication method that we have agreed to in writing.

          We will promptly notify you in writing of any change in the persons designated above and, until you have actually received such written notice and have had a reasonable opportunity to act upon it, you are authorized to act upon instructions, even though the person delivering them may no longer be authorized.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

          In order to induce Lenders to provide the Credit Facility to Borrower, the undersigned hereby acknowledges and agrees as follows:

          We have entered into that certain that certain Stockholders Agreement by and among Investor, Yale University, The Vanderbilt University, Carnegie Corporation of


New York, The Board of Trustees of the Leland Stanford Junior University, State Street Bank and Trust Company as Trustee for the Dupont Pension Trust and The William and Flora Hewlett Foundation dated as of October 15, 2004 (effective as of August 15, 2004) as amended by First Amendment to Stockholders Agreement dated as of August 15, 2004, as the same may hereafter be modified in compliance with the terms of this Agreement (the “Stockholders Agreement”; all capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Stockholders Agreement), pursuant to which we have (i) purchased shares of stock in Investor, which is a member in Borrower and (ii) committed to make cash contributions of capital (“Capital Contributions”) to Investor on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Stockholders Agreement with an Aggregate Capital Commitment of $____________ (our “Capital Commitment”), which Capital Contributions are to be contributed by Investor to Borrower pursuant to the terms of the Operating Agreement.

          As of the date hereof, our Remaining Capital Commitment is $____________, which may be drawn upon the delivery of one or more Drawdown Notices pursuant to and in accordance with the Stockholders Agreement.

          We hereby agree that we shall deliver to Administrative Agent from time to time upon the request of Managing Member, Investor, Administrative Agent or any Lender, a certificate setting forth the amount of our Remaining Capital Commitment. [Add for Dupont Trust and Hewlett Trust: We hereby further agree to deliver to Administrative Agent the financial statements as and when required under Section 6.06(11) of the Credit Agreement.]

          We hereby acknowledge and agree that under the terms of and subject to the conditions set forth in the Stockholders Agreement, we are obligated to fund our undrawn Aggregate Capital Commitment required on account of calls for Capital Contributions duly made in accordance with the terms of the Stockholders Agreement (including, without limitation, subsequent calls for Capital Contributions made in connection with a shortfall in funds available to Borrower as a result of the failure of any other Major Stockholder or Managing Member to advance funds with respect to a call for Capital Contributions duly made). In addition, we hereby acknowledge and confirm to Administrative Agent, Lenders, Managing Member and Investor that we will make Capital Contributions to the extent of our unfunded Aggregate Capital Commitment, to be applied to the repayment of outstanding obligations under the Credit Agreement, whether such Capital Contributions are called by Managing Member, Investor or Administrative Agent for such purpose on behalf of Managing Member and Investor (whether or not any Person is then acting as Managing Member for Borrower or Manager for Investor) without defense, counterclaim or offset of any kind, all of which we hereby waive. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Stockholders Agreement or Operating Agreement, we hereby acknowledge and agree that (i) our obligation to fund our Aggregate Capital Commitment as and when requested by Administrative Agent is unconditional and (ii) Administrative Agent shall not be required to state any specific purpose or use of funds, deliver any supporting documentation whatsoever or comply with any formalities when making a Drawdown on our Aggregate Capital Commitment, except that such Drawdown must be made in writing.

          We hereby (i) acknowledge that Borrower, Managing Member and Investor, pursuant to the terms of the Stockholders Agreement are making a collateral assignment to Administrative Agent for the benefit of Lenders of the right to call all future draws under the Stockholders Agreement to secure all loans and other extensions of credit made under the Credit Facility and all other obligations of Borrower under the Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents (as defined in the Credit Agreement), (ii) represent that as of the date hereof, (A) to the best of our knowledge there is no default or circumstance which with the passage of time and/or the giving of notice would constitute a default under the Operating Agreement or the Stockholders Agreement, (B) the Stockholders Agreement has not been modified or amended except for the amendment referred to above and is in full force and effect and enforceable against the undersigned in accordance with its terms and (C) we do not have any right of offset against, or reduction to, our obligation to fund our undrawn Aggregate Capital Commitment, (iii) acknowledge that for so long as the Credit Facility is in place we will not amend, modify, supplement, cancel, terminate, reduce or suspend any of the provisions of the Stockholders Agreement or the Operating Agreement relating to the Aggregate Capital Commitments, the making of Capital Contributions or the incurrence of indebtedness or any other provisions that would adversely affect the rights of Administrative Agent or Lenders without your prior written consent and (iv) acknowledge that until otherwise instructed by both Borrower and you in writing, all future Capital Contributions made by us under the Stockholders Agreement will be made by wire transfer to the following account which Borrower has also pledged as security for the Obligations (as such term is defined in the Credit Agreement):

We hereby acknowledge that the terms of the Credit Agreement and of each other Credit Document (as defined therein) can be modified without further notice to us or our consent.

____________, 2010

          For value received, ACADIA STRATEGIC OPPORTUNITY FUND II, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Maker”) hereby covenants and promises to pay to the order of [NAME OF LENDER] or its successors or assigns (collectively, “Lender”), at the principal office of BANK OF AMERICA, N.A. located at One Bryant Park, 35th Floor, New York, New York 10036 (“Administrative Agent”) for the account of the Applicable Lending Office of Lender, the principal sum of _________________________ Dollars ($____________) or so much thereof as shall be advanced and remain unpaid pursuant to the Loan Agreement (as defined below), in lawful money of the United States and in immediately available funds, in accordance with the terms set forth in the Loan Agreement. Maker also covenants and promises to pay interest on the unpaid principal balance hereof, for the period such balance is outstanding, in like money, at said office for the account of said Applicable Lending Office, at the time and at a rate per annum as provided in the Loan Agreement. Any amount of principal hereof which is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration, or otherwise, shall bear interest from the date when due until said principal amount is paid in full, payable on demand, at the Default Rate.

          This Note is one of the Notes referred to in the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of the date hereof (as the same may be amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Loan Agreement”) among Maker, as Borrower, Acadia Realty Acquisition II, LLC, Acadia Investors II, Inc., the lenders named therein (including Lender), as Lenders, and Administrative Agent, as Administrative Agent for Lenders. All of the terms, conditions and provisions of the Loan Agreement are hereby incorporated by reference. All capitalized terms used herein and not defined herein shall have the meanings given to them in the Loan Agreement.

          The Loan Agreement contains, among other things, provisions for the prepayment of and acceleration of this Note upon the happening of certain stated events.

          Should the indebtedness represented by this Note or any part thereof be collected at law or in equity, or in bankruptcy, receivership or any other court proceeding (whether at the trial or appellate level), or should this Note be placed in the hands of attorneys for collection upon default, Maker agrees to pay, in addition to the principal, interest and other sums due and payable hereon, all costs of collecting or attempting to collect this Note, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses.

          All parties to this Note, whether principal, surety, guarantor or endorser, hereby waive presentment for payment, demand, protest, notice of protest and notice of dishonor.


          This Note shall be governed by the Laws of the State of New York (without giving effect to New York’s principles of conflicts of law), provided that, as to the maximum lawful rate of interest which may be charged or collected, if the Laws applicable to Lender permit it to charge or collect a higher rate than the Laws of the State of New York, then such Law applicable to Lender shall apply to Lender under this Note.

          Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the obligations of Maker under this Note shall be subject to the limitation that payments of interest shall not be required to the extent that receipt of any such payment by Lender would be contrary to provisions of Law applicable to Lender limiting the maximum rate of interest that may be charged or collected by Lender.

          IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Maker has executed and delivered this Note as of the date first above written.

ASSIGNMENT AND ASSUMPTION AGREEMENT

          ASSIGNMENT AND ASSUMPTION AGREEMENT, dated as of ____________, 200__, among [NAME OF ASSIGNING BANK] (“Assignor”) and [NAME OF ASSIGNEE] (“Assignee”).

Preliminary Statement

          1. This Assignment and Assumption Agreement (this “Agreement”) relates to the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (as the same may be amended from time to time, the “Loan Agreement”) dated as of December 22, 2010 among Acadia Strategic Opportunity Fund II, LLC (“Borrower”), Acadia Realty Acquisition II, LLC, Acadia Investors II, Inc., the lender(s) party thereto (each a “Lender” and, collectively, “Lenders”) and Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent (“Administrative Agent”). All capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Loan Agreement.

          2. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Loan Agreement, Assignor has made an Individual Commitment to Borrower in an aggregate principal amount of $____________ (“Assignor’s Loan Commitment”).

          3. The aggregate outstanding principal amount under Assignor’s Loan Commitment at the commencement of business on the date hereof is $____________.

          4. Assignor desires to assign to Assignee all of the rights of Assignor under the Loan Agreement in respect of a portion of Assignor’s Loan Commitment and the Loans and other extensions of credit made or participated in by Assignor pursuant thereto, such portion being in an amount equal to $____________ (the “Assigned Loan and Commitment”), of which $____________ is currently outstanding and $____________ is still to be extended to Borrower pursuant to the Loan Agreement; and Assignee desires to accept assignment of such rights and assume the corresponding obligations from Assignor on such terms.

          NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual agreements contained herein, the parties hereto agree as follows:

          SECTION 1. Assignment. Assignor hereby assigns and sells to Assignee all of the rights of Assignor under the Loan Agreement in and to the Assigned Loan and Commitment, and Assignee hereby accepts such assignment from Assignor and assumes all of the obligations of Assignor under the Loan Agreement with respect to the Assigned Loan and Commitment, including, without limitation, Assignor’s obligations with respect to the undisbursed portion, if any, thereof. Upon the execution and delivery hereof by Assignor, Assignee, and (if applicable) Administrative Agent and the payment of the amount specified in Section 2 hereof required to be paid on the date hereof, (1) Assignee


shall, as of the commencement of business on the date hereof, succeed to the rights and obligations of a Lender under the Loan Agreement with an Individual Commitment in an amount equal to the Assigned Loan and Commitment, and (2) the Individual Commitment of Assignor shall, as of the commencement of business on the date hereof, be reduced correspondingly and Assignor released from its obligations under the Loan Agreement to the extent such obligations have been assumed by Assignee. Assignor represents and warrants that it (x) owns the Assigned Loan and Commitment free and clear of all liens and other encumbrances created by Assignor and (y) is legally authorized to enter into and perform this Agreement. Except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, the assignment provided for herein shall be without representation or warranty by, or recourse to, Assignor.

          SECTION 2. Payments. As consideration for the assignment and sale contemplated in Section 1 hereof, Assignee shall pay to Assignor on the date hereof, in immediately available funds, an amount equal to the outstanding principal amount under the Assigned Loan and Commitment recited in paragraph 4 of the Preliminary Statement above. Each of Assignor and Assignee hereby agrees that if it receives any amount under the Loan Agreement which is for the account of the other party hereto, it shall receive the same for the account of such other party to the extent of such other party’s interest therein and shall promptly pay the same to such other party.

          SECTION 3. Consent; Execution and Delivery of Notes. [This Agreement is conditioned upon the consent of Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 10.10 of the Loan Agreement. The execution of this Agreement by Administrative Agent is evidence of this consent.] [Consents not required for certain assignments to entities related to a Lender.] Pursuant to Section 10.10 of the Loan Agreement, Borrower has agreed to execute and deliver Notes payable to the respective orders of Assignee and Assignor to evidence the assignment and assumption provided for herein. Assignee has designated as its Applicable Lending Office, and as its address for notices, the office identified as such below.

          SECTION 4. Non-Reliance on Assignor. Assignor makes no representation or warranty in connection with, and shall have no responsibility with respect to, the solvency, financial condition, or statements of Borrower or any other party to any Credit Document, or the validity and enforceability of the obligations of Borrower or any other party to a Credit Document in respect of the Loan Agreement or any other Credit Document. Assignee acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance on Assignor, any other Lender or Administrative Agent, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own analysis of the Collateral, credit analysis of Borrower and Guarantor and decision to enter into this Agreement and will continue to be responsible for making its own independent appraisal of the Collateral and of the business, affairs and financial condition of Borrower and the other parties to the Credit Documents.

          SECTION 5. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the Laws of the State of New York (without giving effect to New York’s principles of conflicts of law).

2


          SECTION 6. Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument.

          SECTION 7. Certain Representations and Agreements by Assignee. Assignee represents that it is legally authorized to enter into and perform this Agreement. In addition, Assignee hereby represents that it is entitled to receive any payments to be made to it under the Loan Agreement or hereunder without the withholding of any tax and agrees to furnish the evidence of such exemption as specified therein and otherwise to comply with the provisions of Section 9.13 of the Loan Agreement.

          IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have caused this Agreement to be executed and delivered by their duly authorized officers as of the date first above written.

The Exhibits contain other terms, provisions and conditions applicable to the Loan. Capitalized terms used in this Agreement shall have the meanings assigned to them in Exhibit “B”. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents, which must be in form, detail and substance satisfactory to Lenders, evidence the agreements of Borrower and Lenders with respect to the Loan. Borrower shall comply with all of the Loan Documents.

                    1.2. Purpose. The proceeds of the Loan shall only be used by Borrower to reimburse Borrower for paid Tenant Improvement Costs and Leasing Commissions with respect to leases of the Property in compliance with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.


                    1.3. Commitment to Lend. Borrower agrees to borrow from each Lender, and each Lender severally agrees to make advances of its Pro Rata Share of the Loan proceeds to Borrower in amounts at any one time outstanding not to exceed such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Loan and (except for Administrative Agent with respect to Administrative Agent Advances), on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement and Exhibit “C”, Exhibit “C-1” and Exhibit “F” attached to this Agreement. Lender’s commitment to lend shall expire and terminate automatically if the Loan is prepaid in full. The Loan is not revolving. Any amount repaid may not be reborrowed.

                    1.4. Intentionally Omitted.

                    1.5. Intentionally Omitted.

                    1.6. Evidence of Debt. Amounts of the Loan made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender and by Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the Loan made by Lenders to Borrower and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of Borrower hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Indebtedness. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error.

                    1.7. Interest Rates.

                  1.7.1. Interest Rate.

                    (a) The unpaid principal balance of this Loan from day to day outstanding which is not past due, shall bear interest at a fluctuating rate of interest equal to the BBA LIBOR Daily Floating Rate plus the LIBOR Margin. The “BBA LIBOR Daily Floating Rate” shall mean a fluctuating rate of interest equal to the British Bankers Association LIBOR Rate (“BBA LIBOR”), as published by Reuters (or other commercially available source providing quotations of BBA LIBOR as selected by Administrative Agent from time to time) as determined for each Business Day at approximately 11:00 a.m. London time two (2) London Banking Days prior to the date in question, for U.S. Dollar deposits (for delivery on the first day of such interest period) with a one month term, as adjusted from time to time in Administrative Agent’s sole discretion for reserve requirements, deposit insurance assessment rates and other regulatory costs. If such rate is not available at such time for any reason, then the rate will be determined by such alternative method as reasonably selected by Administrative Agent. A “London Banking Day” is a day on which banks in London are open for business and dealing in offshore dollars. Interest shall be computed for the actual number of days which have elapsed, on the basis of a 360-day year.

                    (b) If Administrative Agent determines that no adequate basis exists for determining the BBA LIBOR Daily Floating Rate or that the BBA LIBOR Daily Floating Rate will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to Lenders of funding the Loan, or that any

applicable law or regulation or compliance therewith by any Lender prohibits or restricts or makes impossible the charging of interest based on the BBA LIBOR Daily Floating Rate and such Lender so notifies Administrative Agent and Borrower, then until Administrative Agent notifies Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, interest shall accrue and be payable on the unpaid principal balance of this Loan from the date Administrative Agent so notifies Borrower until the Maturity Date of this Loan (whether by acceleration, declaration, extension or otherwise) at a fluctuating rate of interest equal to the Base Rate. Each Lender agrees to designate a different Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for such notice and will not, in the good faith judgment of such Lender, otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender.

                    1.7.2. Default Rate. After the occurrence of a Default (including the expiration of any applicable cure period), Administrative Agent, in Administrative Agent’s sole discretion and without notice or demand, may raise the rate of interest accruing on the Principal Debt a rate per annum (the “Default Rate”) equal to the BBA LIBOR Daily Floating Rate (or, if unavailable pursuant to Section 1.7.1, the Prime Rate) plus 6.65%.

                    1.8. Prepayment. Borrower may prepay the principal balance of this Loan, in full at any time or in part from time to time, without fee, premium or penalty, provided that: (a) Administrative Agent shall have actually received from Borrower prior written notice of (i) Borrower’s intent to prepay, (ii) the amount of principal which will be prepaid (the “Prepaid Principal”), and (iii) the date on which the prepayment will be made; (b) each prepayment shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000 or more (unless the prepayment retires the outstanding balance of this Loan in full); and (c) each prepayment shall be in the amount of 100% of the Prepaid Principal, plus accrued unpaid interest thereon to the date of prepayment, plus any other sums which have become due to Administrative Agent and Lenders under the Loan Documents on or before the date of prepayment but have not been paid. If this Loan is prepaid in full, any commitment of Lenders for further advances shall automatically terminate.

                    1.9. Intentionally Omitted.

                    1.10. Late Charge. If Borrower shall fail to make any payment due hereunder or under the terms of any Note within fifteen (15) days after the date such payment is due, Borrower shall pay to the applicable Lender or Lenders on demand a late charge equal to 4% of such payment. Such fifteen (15) day period shall not be construed as in any way extending the due date of any payment. The “late charge” is imposed for the purpose of defraying the expenses of a Lender incident to handling such defaulting payment. This charge shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other remedy Lenders may have and is in addition to any fees and charges of any agents or attorneys which Administrative Agent or Lenders may employ upon the occurrence of a Default, whether authorized herein or by Law.

                    1.11. Taxes.

                    (a) Any and all payments by Borrower to or for the account of Administrative Agent or any Lender under any Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, duties, levies, imposts, deductions, assessments, fees, withholdings or similar charges, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding, in the

3


case of Administrative Agent and any Lender, taxes imposed on or measured by its net income, and franchise taxes imposed on it (in lieu of net income taxes), by the jurisdiction (or any political subdivision thereof) under the Laws of which Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, is organized or maintains a lending office (all such non-excluded taxes, duties, levies, imposts, deductions, assessments, fees, withholdings or similar charges, and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”). If Borrower shall be required by any Laws to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under any Loan Document to Administrative Agent or any Lender, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section), Administrative Agent and such Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) Borrower shall make such deductions, (iii) Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable Laws, and (iv) within thirty (30) days after the date of such payment, Borrower shall furnish to Administrative Agent (which shall forward the same to such Lender) the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof.

                    (b) In addition, Borrower agrees to pay any and all present or future stamp, court or documentary taxes and any other excise or property taxes or charges or similar levies which arise from any payment made under any Loan Document or from the execution, delivery, performance, enforcement or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, any Loan Document (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”).

                    (c) If Borrower shall be required by the Laws of any jurisdiction outside the United States to deduct any Taxes or Other Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under any Loan Document to Administrative Agent or any Lender, Borrower shall also pay to Administrative Agent (for the account of such Lender) or to such Lender, at the time interest is paid, such additional amount that such Lender specifies is necessary to preserve the after-tax yield (after factoring in United States (federal and state) taxes imposed on or measured by net income) Lender would have received if such deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) had not been made.

                    (d) Borrower agrees to indemnify Administrative Agent and each Lender for the full amount of Taxes and Other Taxes (including any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section) paid by Administrative Agent and such Lender and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, in each case whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Tribunal. Payment under this subsection (d) shall be made within thirty (30) days after the date Lender or Administrative Agent makes a demand therefor.

                    (e) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of Borrower hereunder, the agreements and obligations of Borrower contained in this Section shall survive the termination of the Commitments and the payment in full of all the other Indebtedness.

                    1.12. Payment Schedule and Maturity Date.

                    (a) Accrued unpaid interest shall be due and payable on the first day of the calendar month after the date of this Agreement and on the same day of each succeeding calendar month thereafter until all principal and accrued interest owing on this Loan shall have been fully paid and satisfied.

                    (b) Commencing on the date (the “Amortization Date”) which is the first day of the month commencing on or after the eighteenth month anniversary of the date hereof, the principal of the Loan shall be due and payable in monthly installments equal to the amount for the applicable month (by specific calendar months) set forth on Exhibit “D”. Such principal amortization payments shall be due and payable on the Amortization Date and on the first day of each succeeding month thereafter until the Loan shall have been fully paid and satisfied.

                    1.13. Advances and Payments.

                    (a) Following receipt of a Draw Request, Administrative Agent shall promptly provide each Lender with a copy of the Draw Request. Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender telephonically (with confirmation by facsimile) or by facsimile (with confirmation by telephone) not later than 1:00 p.m. Administrative Agent’s Time two (2) Business Days prior to the advance Funding Date for LIBOR Rate Principal advances, and one (1) Business Day prior to the advance Funding Date for all other advances, of its Pro Rata Share of the amount Administrative Agent has determined shall be advanced in connection therewith (“Advance Amount”). In the case of an advance of the Loan, each Lender shall make the funds for its Pro Rata Share of the Advance Amount available to Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. Administrative Agent’s Time on the Funding Date thereof. After Administrative Agent’s receipt of the Advance Amount from Lenders, Administrative Agent shall make proceeds of the Loan in an amount equal to the Advance Amount (or, if less, such portion of the Advance Amount that shall have been paid to Administrative Agent by Lenders in accordance with the terms hereof) available to Borrower on the applicable Funding Date by advancing such funds to Borrower in accordance with the provisions of Exhibit “F”.

                    (b) All payments by Borrower shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by Borrower hereunder shall be made to Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 p.m. (Administrative Agent’s Time) on the date specified herein. Administrative Agent shall distribute to each Lender such funds as such Lender may be entitled to receive hereunder (i) on or before 3:00 p.m. (Administrative Agent’s Time) on the day Administrative Agent receives such funds, if Administrative Agent has received such funds on or before 12:00 p.m. (Administrative Agent’s Time), or (ii) on or before 12:00 p.m. (Administrative Agent’s Time) on the Business Day following the day Administrative Agent receives such funds, if Administrative Agent receives such funds after 12:00 p.m. (Administrative Agent’s Time). If Administrative Agent fails to timely pay any amount to any Lender in accordance with this subsection, Administrative Agent shall pay to such Lender interest at the Federal Funds Rate on such amount, for each day from the day such amount was to be paid until it is paid to such Lender.

5


                    (c) Except as otherwise provided herein, all payments by Borrower or any Lender shall be made to Administrative Agent at Administrative Agent’s Office not later than the time for such type of payment specified in this Agreement. All payments received after such time shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day. All payments shall be made in immediately available funds in lawful money of the United States of America. Whenever any payment falls due on a day which is not a Business Day, such payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day.

                    (d) Upon satisfaction of any applicable terms and conditions set forth herein, Administrative Agent shall promptly make any amounts received in accordance with the prior subsection available in like funds received as follows: (i) if payable to Borrower, in accordance with Exhibit “F”, except as otherwise specified herein, and (ii) if payable to any Lender, by wire transfer to such Lender at the address specified in the Schedule of Lenders.

                    (e) Unless Borrower or any Lender has notified Administrative Agent, prior to the date any payment is required to be made by it to Administrative Agent, that Borrower or such Lender, as the case may be, will not make such payment, Administrative Agent may assume that Borrower or such Lender, as the case may be, has timely made such payment and may (but shall not be required to do so) in reliance thereon, make available a corresponding amount to the person or entity entitled thereto. If and to the extent that such payment was not in fact made to Administrative Agent in immediately available funds, then:

 

 

 

          (i) if Borrower failed to make such payment, each Lender shall forthwith on demand repay to Administrative Agent the portion of such assumed payment that was made available to such Lender in immediately available funds, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such amount was made available by Administrative Agent to such Lender to the date such amount is repaid to Administrative Agent in immediately available funds at the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect; and

 

 

 

          (ii) if any Lender failed to make such payment, such Lender or, if applicable, Electing Lender or Lenders shall forthwith on demand pay to Administrative Agent the amount thereof in immediately available funds, together with interest thereon for the period from the date such amount was made available by Administrative Agent to Borrower to the date such amount is recovered by Administrative Agent (the “Compensation Period”) at a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable to such amount under the Loan. If such Lender pays such amount to Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Pro Rata Share, included in the applicable Loan advance. If such Lender does not pay such amount forthwith upon Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, Administrative Agent may make a demand therefor upon Borrower, and Borrower shall pay such amount to Administrative Agent, together with interest thereon for the Compensation Period at a rate per annum equal to the rate of interest applicable to such amount under the Loan. Nothing herein shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitment or to prejudice any rights which Administrative Agent or Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.

6


                    A notice of Administrative Agent to any Lender or to Borrower with respect to any amount owing under this subsection shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

                    (f) If any Lender makes available to Administrative Agent funds for the Loan advance to be made by such Lender as provided in the foregoing provisions of this Section, and the funds are not advanced to Borrower or otherwise used to satisfy any Obligations of such Lender hereunder, Administrative Agent shall return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender, without interest.

                    (g) Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for the Loan advance in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for the Loan advance in any particular place or manner.

                    1.14. Administrative Agent Advances.

                    (a) Administrative Agent is authorized, from time to time, in Administrative Agent’s sole discretion to make, authorize or determine advances of the Loan, or otherwise expend funds, on behalf of Lenders (“Administrative Agent Advances”), (i) to pay any costs, fees and expenses as described in Section 6.10 herein, (ii) when the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Exhibit “C” and Exhibit “F” have been satisfied to the extent required by Administrative Agent, and (iii) when Administrative Agent deems necessary or desirable to preserve or protect the Loan collateral or any portion thereof (including those with respect to property taxes, insurance premiums, completion of construction, operation, management, improvements, maintenance, repair, sale and disposition) (A) subject to Section 5.5, after the occurrence of a Default, and (B) subject to Section 5.10, after acquisition of all or a portion of the Loan collateral by foreclosure or otherwise.

                    (b) Administrative Agent Advances shall constitute obligatory advances of Lenders under this Agreement, shall be repayable on demand and secured by the Loan collateral, and if unpaid by Lenders as set forth below shall bear interest at the rate applicable to such amount under the Loan or if no longer applicable, at the Base Rate. Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender in writing of each Administrative Agent Advance. Upon receipt of notice from Administrative Agent of its making of an Administrative Agent Advance, each Lender shall make the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the outstanding principal amount of Administrative Agent Advance available to Administrative Agent, in same day funds, to such account of Administrative Agent as Administrative Agent may designate, (i) on or before 3:00 p.m. (Administrative Agent’s Time) on the day Administrative Agent provides Lenders with notice of the making of such Administrative Agent Advance if Administrative Agent provides such notice on or before 12:00 p.m. (Administrative Agent’s Time), or (ii) on or before 12:00 p.m. on the Business Day immediately following the day Administrative Agent provides Lenders with notice of the making of such advance if Administrative Agent provides notice after 12:00 p.m. (Administrative Agent’s Time).

               1.15. Defaulting Lender.

               1.15.1. Notice and Cure of Lender Default; Election Period; Electing Lenders. Administrative Agent shall notify (such notice being referred to as the “Default Notice”) Borrower (for Loan advances) and each non-Defaulting Lender if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender. Each non-Defaulting Lender shall have the right, but in no event or under any circumstance the obligation, to fund such Defaulting Lender Amount, provided that within twenty (20) days after the date of the Default Notice (the “Election Period”), such non-Defaulting Lender or Lenders (each such Lender, an “Electing Lender”) irrevocably commit(s) by notice in writing (an “Election Notice”) to Administrative Agent, the other Lenders and Borrower to fund the Defaulting Lender Amount. If Administrative Agent receives more than one Election Notice within the Election Period, then the commitment to fund the Defaulting Lender Amount shall be apportioned pro rata among the Electing Lenders in the proportion that the amount of each such Electing Lender’s Commitment bears to the total Commitments of all Electing Lenders. If the Defaulting Lender fails to pay the Defaulting Lender Payment Amount within the Election Period, the Electing Lender or Lenders, as applicable, shall be automatically obligated to fund the Defaulting Lender Amount (and Defaulting Lender shall no longer be entitled to fund such Defaulting Lender Amount) within three (3) Business Days following the expiration of the Election Period to reimburse Administrative Agent or make payment to Borrower, as applicable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if Administrative Agent has funded the Defaulting Lender Amount, Administrative Agent shall be entitled to reimbursement for its portion of the Defaulting Lender Payment Amount pursuant to Section 5.11.

               1.15.2. Removal of Rights; Indemnity. Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to transfer to a Defaulting Lender any payments made by or on behalf of Borrower to Administrative Agent for the Defaulting Lender’s benefit; nor shall a Defaulting Lender be entitled to the sharing of any payments hereunder or under any Note until all Defaulting Lender Payment Amounts are paid in full. Amounts payable to a Defaulting Lender shall be paid by Administrative Agent to reimburse Administrative Agent and any Electing Lender pro rata for all Defaulting Lender Payment Amounts. Solely for the purposes of voting or consenting to matters with respect to the Loan Documents, a Defaulting Lender shall be deemed not to be a “Lender” and such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment shall be deemed to be zero. A Defaulting Lender shall have no right to participate in any discussions among and/or decisions by Lenders hereunder and/or under the other Loan Documents. Further, any Defaulting Lender shall be bound by any amendment to, or waiver of, any provision of, or any action taken or omitted to be taken by Administrative Agent and/or the non-Defaulting Lenders under, any Loan Document which is made subsequent to the Defaulting Lender’s becoming a Defaulting Lender. This Section shall remain effective with respect to a Defaulting Lender until such time as the Defaulting Lender shall no longer be in default of any of its obligations under this Agreement by curing such default by payment of all Defaulting Lender Payment Amounts (i) within the Election Period, or (ii) after the Election Period with the consent of the non-Defaulting Lenders. Such Defaulting Lender nonetheless shall be bound by any amendment to or waiver of any provision of, or any action taken or omitted to be taken by Administrative Agent and/or the non-Defaulting Lenders under any Loan Document which is made subsequent to that Lender’s becoming a Defaulting Lender and prior to such cure or waiver. The operation of this subsection or the subsection above alone shall not be construed to increase or otherwise affect the Commitment of any non-Defaulting Lender, or relieve or excuse the performance by Borrower

8


of their duties and obligations hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents. Furthermore, nothing contained in this Section shall release or in any way limit a Defaulting Lender’s obligations as a Lender hereunder and/or under any other of the Loan Documents. Further, a Defaulting Lender shall indemnify and hold harmless Administrative Agent and each of the non-Defaulting Lenders from any claim, loss, or costs incurred by Administrative Agent and/or the non-Defaulting Lenders as a result of a Defaulting Lender’s failure to comply with the requirements of this Agreement, including, without limitation, any and all additional losses, damages, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees) incurred by Administrative Agent and any non-Defaulting Lender as a result of and/or in connection with (i) a non-Defaulting Lender’s acting as an Electing Lender, (ii) any enforcement action brought by Administrative Agent against a Defaulting Lender, and (iii) any action brought against Administrative Agent and/or Lenders. The indemnification provided above shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

               1.15.3. Commitment Adjustments. In connection with the adjustment of the amounts of the Loan Commitments of the Defaulting Lender and Electing Lender(s) upon the expiration of the Election Period as aforesaid, Borrower, Administrative Agent and Lenders shall execute such modifications to the Loan Documents as shall, in the reasonable judgment of Administrative Agent, be necessary or desirable in connection with the adjustment of the amounts of Commitments in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Section. For the purpose of voting or consenting to matters with respect to the Loan Documents such modifications shall also reflect the removal of voting rights of the Defaulting Lender and increase in voting rights of Electing Lenders to the extent an Electing Lender has funded the Defaulting Lender Amount. In connection with such adjustments, Defaulting Lenders shall execute and deliver an Assignment and Assumption covering that Lender’s Commitment and otherwise comply with Section 6.5. If a Lender refuses to execute and deliver such Assignment and Assumption or otherwise comply with Section 6.5, such Lender hereby appoints Administrative Agent to do so on such Lender’s behalf. Administrative Agent shall distribute an amended Schedule of Lenders, which shall thereafter be incorporated into this Agreement, to reflect such adjustments. However, all such Defaulting Lender Amounts funded by Administrative Agent or Electing Lenders shall continue to be Defaulting Lender Amounts of the Defaulting Lender pursuant to its obligations under this Agreement.

               1.15.4. No Election. In the event that no Lender elects to commit to fund the Defaulting Lender Amount within the Election Period, Administrative Agent shall, upon the expiration of the Election Period, so notify Borrower and each Lender.

               1.16. Several Obligations; No Liability, No Release. Notwithstanding that certain of the Loan Documents now or hereafter may have been or will be executed only by or in favor of Administrative Agent in its capacity as such, and not by or in favor of Lenders, any and all obligations on the part of Administrative Agent (if any) to make any advances of the Loan or reimbursements for other Payment Amounts shall constitute the several (and not joint) obligations of the respective Lenders on a ratable basis, according to their respective Pro Rata Shares. Except as may be specifically provided in this Agreement, no Lender shall have any liability for the acts of any other Lender. No Lender shall be responsible to Borrower or any other person for any failure by any other Lender to fulfill its obligations to make advances of the Loan or reimbursements for other Payment Amounts, nor to take any other action on its behalf

9


hereunder or in connection with the financing contemplated herein. The failure of any Lender to pay to Administrative Agent its Pro Rata Share of a Payment Amount shall not relieve any other Lender of any obligation hereunder to pay to Administrative Agent its Pro Rata Share of such Payment Amounts as and when required herein, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so fund its Pro Rata Share of the Payment Amount. In furtherance of the foregoing, Lenders shall comply with their obligation to pay Administrative Agent their Pro Rata Share of such Payment Amounts regardless of (i) the occurrence of any Default hereunder or under any Loan Document; (ii) any failure of consideration, absence of consideration, misrepresentation, fraud, or any other event, failure, deficiency, breach or irregularity of any nature whatsoever in the Loan Documents; or (iii) any bankruptcy, insolvency or other like event with regard to any Borrower or Guarantor. The obligation of Lenders to pay to such Payment Amounts are in all regards independent of any claims between Administrative Agent and any Lender.

ARTICLE 2
ADDITIONAL COVENANTS AND AGREEMENTS

                    2.1. Bank Accounts. Borrower shall maintain all security deposits collected from tenants or others with respect to the Property in one or more accounts with Administrative Agent in accordance with all applicable legal requirements. Borrower shall maintain all bank accounts used by Borrower in connection with the operation of the Property with Administrative Agent.

                    2.2. Intentionally Omitted.

                    2.3. Contracts. Without Administrative Agent’s prior written approval as to parties, terms, and all other matters, Borrower shall not (a) enter into any Material Contract, (b) enter into any management, leasing, maintenance or other contract pertaining to the Property not described in clause (a) that is not unconditionally terminable by Borrower or any successor owner without penalty or payment on not more than thirty (30) days’ notice to the other party thereunder, or (c) modify, amend, or terminate any such contracts. All such contracts shall provide that all rights and liens of the applicable contractor, architect, engineer, supplier, surveyor or other party and any right to remove removable Improvements are subordinate to Lender’s rights and liens, shall require all subcontracts and purchase orders to contain a provision subordinating the subcontractors’ and mechanics’ and materialmen’s liens and any right to remove removable Improvements to Lender’s rights and liens. Borrower shall not default under any contract, Borrower shall not permit any contract to terminate by reason of any failure of Borrower to perform thereunder, and Borrower shall promptly notify Administrative Agent of any default thereunder. Borrower will deliver to Administrative Agent, upon request of Administrative Agent, the names and addresses of all persons or entities with whom each contractor has contracted or intends to contract for the construction of the Improvements or for the furnishing of labor or materials therefor.

                    2.4. Assignment of Contracts and Plans. As additional security for the Obligations, Borrower hereby transfers and assigns to Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of Administrative Agent and Lenders and grants a security interest in all of Borrower’s

10


right, title and interest, but not its liability, in, under, and to all construction, architectural and design contracts, and the Plans, and agrees that all of the same are covered by the security agreement provisions of the Mortgage. Borrower agrees to deliver to Administrative Agent from time to time upon Administrative Agent’s request such consents to the foregoing assignment from parties contracting with Borrower as Administrative Agent may reasonably require. Neither this assignment nor any action by Administrative Agent or Lenders shall constitute an assumption by Administrative Agent or Lenders of any obligation under any contract or with respect to the Plans, Borrower hereby agrees to perform all of its obligations under any contract, and Borrower shall continue to be liable for all obligations of Borrower with respect thereto. Administrative Agent shall have the right at any time (but shall have no obligation) to take in its name or in the name of Borrower such action as Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cure any default under any contract or with respect to the Plans or to protect the rights of Borrower, Administrative Agent or Lenders with respect thereto. Borrower irrevocably constitutes and appoints Administrative Agent as Borrower’s attorney-in-fact, which power of attorney is coupled with an interest and irrevocable, to enforce in Borrower’s name or in Administrative Agent’s and Lender’s name all rights of Borrower under any contract or with respect to the Plans. Administrative Agent shall incur no liability if any action so taken by it or on its behalf shall prove to be inadequate or invalid. Borrower indemnifies and holds Administrative Agent and Lenders harmless against and from any loss, cost, liability or expense (including, but not limited to, consultants’ fees and expenses and attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred in connection with Borrower’s failure to perform such contracts or any such action taken by Administrative Agent or Lenders. Administrative Agent may use the Plans for any purpose relating to the Improvements. Borrower represents and warrants to Administrative Agent and Lenders that the copy of any contract furnished or to be furnished to Administrative Agent is and shall be a true and complete copy thereof, that there have been no modifications thereof which are not fully set forth in the copies delivered, and that Borrower’s interest therein is not subject to any claim, setoff, or encumbrance.

                    2.5. Financial Covenants.

                    (a) Loan to Value Ratio. The Property shall have a “Loan to Value Ratio” of not greater than 70%, which Loan to Value Ratio shall be calculated, and defined, as follows: the outstanding principal balance and accrued but unpaid interest on the Loan as of the date of the determination of the ratio shall be divided by the appraised “As-Is” value of the Property. The appraised “As-Is” value of the Property shall be based upon the most recent appraisal performed pursuant to Section 2.13, as reviewed, adjusted and approved by Administrative Agent. The Loan to Value Ratio requirement shall be tested no more often than once per calendar year, unless one or more events have occurred which have, alone or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect. In the event the Loan to Value Ratio covenant is not met, Administrative Agent shall notify Borrower of such condition and Borrower may satisfy the Loan to Value Ratio covenant by, within thirty (30) days of such notice, either (A) making a principal curtailment on the Loan (which shall not be credited towards future principal amortization required under the Loan Documents) in an amount sufficient to bring this Loan to Value Ratio into compliance and/or (B) provide additional collateral acceptable to Administrative Agent, which shall have value (as determined by Administrative Agent) which when added to the Property value is sufficient to satisfy the Loan to Value Ratio covenant. If

11


Borrower fails to satisfy the Loan to Value Ratio covenant within such thirty (30) day period, such condition shall constitute an immediate Default.

                    (b) Debt Service Coverage Ratio. Commencing on the earlier to occur of (i) December 31, 2011 or (ii) the date which is six (6) months after the date which at least 95% of the rentable space in the Property is leased pursuant to Leases entered into in accordance with the terms hereof, as determined by Administrative Agent, Borrower shall at all times have a Debt Service Coverage Ratio of at least 1.25 to 1.00. In the event the Debt Service Coverage Ratio covenant is not met, Administrative Agent shall notify Borrower of such condition and Borrower may satisfy the Debt Service Coverage Ratio covenant by, within thirty (30) days of such notice, either (A) making a principal curtailment on the Loan (which shall not be credited towards future principal amortization required under the Loan Documents) in an amount sufficient to bring this Debt Service Coverage Ratio into compliance and/or (B) provide additional collateral acceptable to Administrative Agent, which shall have value (as determined by Administrative Agent) which would, assuming such collateral were liquidated and applied to reduce the outstanding principal amount of the Loan, be sufficient to satisfy the Debt Service Coverage Ratio covenant. If Borrower fails to satisfy the Debt Service Coverage Ratio covenant within such thirty (30) day period, such condition shall constitute an immediate Default.

                    2.6. Limitation on Debt. Borrower will not incur, create, assume directly or indirectly, or suffer to exist any Debt or encumber any of its assets nor form or own any subsidiaries, nor acquire or hold a direct or indirect equity investments in any other Person without in each such instance the prior written consent of Administrative Agent, except for:

                    (a) Debt incurred pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents;

                    (b) Debt of Borrower under a Swap Contract;

                    (c) Debt constituting a trade payable which is payable in the ordinary course of business and is not past due;

                    (d) obligations to pay brokerage commissions in connection with executed leases so long as such commissions are at market rates; and

          (e) amounts payable under leases in connection with build-out allowances or tenant improvement reimbursements (but only to the extent approved by Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion to the extent Administrative Agent’s consent is required hereunder).

                    2.7. Inspection. Administrative Agent and its agents may enter upon the Property to inspect the Property at any reasonable time, unless Administrative Agent deems such inspection is of an emergency nature, in which event Borrower shall provide Administrative Agent with immediate access to the Property. Borrower will furnish to Administrative Agent and its agents for inspection and copying, all Plans, shop drawings, specifications, books and records, and other documents and information that Administrative Agent may reasonably request from time to time.

12


                    2.8. Notice to Lenders. Borrower shall promptly within ten (10) days after the occurrence of any of the following events, notify each Lender in writing thereof, specifying in each case the action Borrower has taken or will take with respect thereto: (a) any violation of any Law or governmental requirement; (b) any litigation, arbitration or governmental investigation or proceeding instituted or threatened against Borrower or any Guarantor or the Property, and any material development therein; (c) any actual or threatened condemnation of any portion of the Property, any negotiations with respect to any such taking, or any loss of or substantial damage to the Property; (d) any labor controversy pending or threatened against Borrower or any contractor, and any material development in any labor controversy; (e) any notice received by Borrower with respect to the cancellation, alteration or non-renewal of any insurance coverage maintained with respect to the Property; (f) Borrower receiving notice or otherwise having knowledge of any lien in excess of $50,000 filed against the Property or any stop notice served on Borrower in connection with construction of any alterations or renovations of the Improvements; or (g) any required permit, license, certificate or approval with respect to the Property lapses or ceases to be in full force and effect.

                    2.9. Financial Statements. Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent with sufficient copies for each Lender the Financial Statements and other statements and information at the times and for the periods described in (a) Exhibit “B” and (b) any other Loan Document, and Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent with sufficient copies for each Lender from time to time such additional financial statements and information as Administrative Agent may at any time request. Borrower will make all of its books, records and accounts available to Administrative Agent and its representatives at the Property upon request and will permit them to review and copy the same. Borrower shall promptly notify Administrative Agent of any event or condition that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect in the financial condition of Borrower and, if known by Borrower, Guarantor.

The cost of any such appraisal shall be borne by Borrower if such appraisal is the first appraisal in any calendar year and in all events if Administrative Agent obtains such appraisal after the occurrence of a Default, and such cost is

Borrower further agrees to deliver to Administrative Agent such certifications or other evidence of compliance with the provisions of this Section 2.15 as Administrative Agent may from time to time request.

                    2.16. Ground Lease.

                    (a) Borrower shall, at its sole cost and expense, promptly and timely perform and observe all the material terms, covenants and conditions required to be performed and observed by Borrower as lessee under the Ground Lease (including, but not limited to, the payment of all rent, additional rent, percentage rent and other charges required to be paid under the Ground Lease).

                    (b) If Borrower shall be in default under the Ground Lease, then, subject to the terms of the Ground Lease, Borrower hereby grants Administrative Agent the right (but not the obligation), to cause the default or defaults under the Ground Lease to be remedied and otherwise exercise any and all rights of Borrower under the Ground Lease, as may be necessary to prevent or cure any default provided such actions are necessary to protect the interests of Administrative Agent and Lenders under the Loan Documents, and Administrative Agent and its agents shall have the right to enter all or any portion of the Property subject to the Ground Lease

14


at such times and in such manner as Administrative Agent deems necessary, to prevent or to cure any such default.

                         (c) The actions or payments of Administrative Agent to cure any default by Borrower under the Ground Lease shall not remove or waive, as between Borrower, Administrative Agent and Lenders, the default that occurred under this Agreement by virtue of the default by Borrower under the Ground Lease. All sums expended by Administrative Agent and Lenders to cure any such default shall be paid by Borrower to Administrative Agent, upon demand, with interest on such sum at the rate set forth in this Agreement from the date such sum is expended to and including the date the reimbursement payment is made to Administrative Agent. All such indebtedness shall be deemed to be secured by the Mortgage.

                         (d) Borrower shall notify Administrative Agent promptly in writing of the occurrence of any material default by Ground Lessor under the Ground Lease or the occurrence of any event that, with the passage of time or service of notice. or both, would constitute a material default by Ground Lessor under the Ground Lease, and the receipt by Borrower of any notice (written or otherwise) from Ground Lessor under the Ground Lease noting or claiming the occurrence of any default by Borrower under the Ground Lease or the occurrence of any event that, with the passage of time or service of notice, or both, would constitute a default by Borrower under the Ground Lease. Borrower shall promptly deliver to Lender a copy of any such written notice of default.

                         (e) Within ten (10) days after receipt of written demand by Administrative Agent, Borrower shall use reasonable efforts to obtain from Ground Lessor under the Ground Lease and furnish to Lender the estoppel certificate of Ground Lessor stating the date through which rent has been paid and whether or not there are any defaults thereunder and specifying the nature of such claimed defaults, if any.

                         (f) Borrower shall promptly execute, acknowledge and deliver to Administrative Agent such instruments as may reasonably be required to permit Administrative Agent to cure any default under the Ground Lease or permit Administrative Agent to take such other action required to enable Administrative Agent to cure or remedy the matter in default and preserve the security interest of Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents with respect to the Ground Lease. Borrower irrevocably appoints Administrative Agent as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact to do, in its name or otherwise, any and all acts and to execute any and all documents that are necessary to preserve any rights of Borrower under or with respect to the Ground Lease, including, without limitation, the right to effectuate any extension or renewal of the Ground Lease, or to preserve any rights of Borrower whatsoever in respect of any part of the Ground Lease (and the above powers granted to Lender are coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable).

                         (g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement with respect to the Ground Lease:

 

 

 

               (i) The lien of the Mortgage attaches to all of Borrower’s rights and remedies at any time arising under or pursuant to Subsection 365(h) of the Bankruptcy Code,

15



 

 

 

including, without limitation, all of Borrower’s rights, as debtor, to remain in possession of the related Property subject to the Ground Lease.

 

 

 

               (ii) Borrower shall not, without Administrative Agent’s written consent, elect to treat the Ground Lease as terminated under subsection 365(h)(l) of the Bankruptcy Code. Any such election made without Administrative Agent’s prior written consent shall be void.

 

 

 

               (iii) As security for the Indebtedness, Borrower unconditionally assigns, transfers and sets over to Lender all of Borrower’s claims and rights to the payment of damages arising from any rejection by Ground Lessor under the Ground Lease under the Bankruptcy Code. Lender and Borrower shall proceed jointly or in the name of Borrower in respect of any claim, suit, action or proceeding relating to the rejection of the Ground Lease, including, without limitation, the right to file and prosecute any proofs of claim, complaints, motions, applications, notices and other documents in any case in respect of Ground Lessor under the Bankruptcy Code. This assignment constitutes a present, in-evocable and unconditional assignment of the foregoing claims, rights and remedies, and shall continue in effect until all of the Indebtedness shall have been satisfied and discharged in full. Any amounts received by Administrative Agent or Borrower as damages arising out of the rejection of the Ground Lease as aforesaid shall be applied to all costs and expenses of Administrative Agent (including, without limitation, attorney’s fees and costs) incurred in connection with the exercise of any of its rights or remedies in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement.

 

 

 

               (iv) If, pursuant to subsection 365(h) of the Bankruptcy Code, Borrower seeks to offset, against the rent reserved in the Ground Lease, the amount of any damages caused by the nonperformance by Ground Lessor of any of its obligations thereunder after the rejection by Ground Lessor of the Ground Lease under the Bankruptcy Code, then Borrower shall not effect any offset of the amounts so objected to by Administrative Agent. If Administrative Agent has failed to object as aforesaid within ten (10) days after notice from Borrower in accordance with the first sentence of this subsection, Borrower may proceed to offset the amounts set forth in Borrower’s notice.

 

 

 

               (v) If any action, proceeding, motion or notice shall be commenced or filed in respect of Ground Lessor of all or any part of the Property in correction with any case under the Bankruptcy Code, Administrative Agent and Borrower shall cooperatively conduct and control any such litigation with counsel agreed upon between Borrower and Administrative Agent in connection with such litigation. Borrower shall, upon demand, pay to Administrative Agent all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs) actually paid or actually incurred by Administrative Agent in connection with the cooperative prosecution or conduct of any such proceedings. All such costs and expenses shall be secured by the lien of the related Mortgage.

 

 

 

               (vi) Borrower shall promptly, after obtaining knowledge of such filing notify Administrative Agent orally of any filing by or against Ground Lessor under the Ground Lease of a petition under the Bankruptcy Code. Borrower shall thereafter promptly give written notice of such filing to Administrative Agent, setting forth any information

16



 

 

 

available to Borrower as to the date of such filing, the court in which such petition was filed, and the relief sought in such filing. Borrower shall promptly deliver to Administrative Agent any and all notices, summonses, pleadings, applications and other documents received by Borrower in connection with any such petition and any proceedings relating to such petition.

                         (h) Borrower shall not, without Lender’s prior written consent, fail to exercise any option or right to renew or extend the term of the Ground Lease in accordance with the terms of the Ground Lease, and shall give immediate written notice to Administrative Agent of each exercise of any such option or right and shall execute, acknowledge, deliver mid record any document requested by Administrative Agent to evidence the Lien of the Mortgage on such extended or renewed lease term; provided, however, Borrower shall not be required to exercise any particular such option or right to renew or extend to the extent Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of Administrative Agent (which consent may be withheld by Administrative Agent in its sole and absolute discretion) allowing Borrower to forego exercising such option or right to renew or extend. If Borrower shall fail to exercise any such option or right as aforesaid, Administrative Agent may exercise the option or right as Borrower’s agent and attorney-in-fact as provided above in Administrative Agent’s own name or in the name of and on behalf of a nominee offender, as Administrative Agent may determine in the exercise of its sole and absolute discretion.

                         (i) Borrower shall not waive, excuse, condone or in any way release or discharge Ground Lessor under the Ground Lease of or from Ground Lessor’s material obligations, covenant and/or conditions under the Ground Lease without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent.

                         (j) Borrower shall not, without Administrative Agent’s prior written consent, surrender, terminate, forfeit, or suffer or permit the surrender, termination or forfeiture of, or change, supplement, modify, alter or amend the Ground Lease, which consent, in the case of a change, supplement, modification, alteration or amendment, shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Consent to one amendment, change, agreement or modification shall not be deemed to be a waiver of the right to require consent to other, future or successive amendments, changes, agreements or modifications. Any acquisition of lessor’s interest in the Ground Lease by Borrower or any Affiliate of Borrower shall be accomplished by Borrower in such a manner so as to avoid a merger of the interests of lessor and lessee in Ground Lease, unless consent to such merger is granted by Administrative Agent.

                    2.17. Storage Facility Master Lease.

                         (a) Borrower has entered into a Sublease Agreement dated December 10, 2007 (the “Storage Facility Master Lease”) with Acadia Strategic Opportunity Fund II, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Storage Facility Tenant’’) for the approximately 88,127 square foot self storage facility to be constructed at the Property (the “Self Storage Facility”) which Storage Facility Master Lease provides for the payment of an annual base rent of $800,000 per annum (the “Storage Facility Rent”) (payable in equal monthly installments) and has a term expiring no earlier than December 1, 2024.

                         (d) Administrative Agent will consent to a termination of the Storage Facility Master Lease in the event that (i) the Self Storage Facility is open for business and (ii) the Self Storage Facility yields an underwritten annual net cash flow, as reasonably determined by Administrative Agent, of $800,000 or more with no free rent, credit or right of offset.

                         (e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the organizational documents of Storage Facility Tenant, Storage Facility Tenant shall not dissolve unless and until each of the following conditions have been satisfied: (i) an appropriate winding down of and disposition of its assets and liabilities, satisfaction of all claims, creditors and liabilities, and retention of adequate reserves to satisfy future contingent liabilities, including, without limitation, its liabilities under the Storage Facility Master Lease; (ii) compliance with all organizational and applicable Laws relating to dissolution and winding up of Storage Facility Tenant, and (iii) the assignment of the Storage Facility Master Lease to and the assumption thereof by a replacement storage facility tenant acceptable to Administrative Agent in its sole discretion.

                    4.2. Remedies. Upon a Default, Administrative Agent may with the consent of, and shall at the direction of the Required Lenders, without notice, exercise any and all rights and remedies afforded by this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, Law, equity or otherwise, including (a) declaring any and all Indebtedness immediately due and payable; (b) reducing any claim to judgment; or (c) obtaining appointment of a receiver (to which Borrower hereby consents) and/or judicial or nonjudicial foreclosure under the Mortgage; provided, however, that upon a Default, Administrative Agent at its election may (but shall not be obligated to) without the consent of and shall at the direction of the Required Lenders, without notice, do any one or more of the following: (a) terminate Lenders’ Commitment to lend; and (b) set-off and apply, to the extent thereof and to the maximum extent permitted by Law, any and all deposits, funds, or

25


assets at any time held and any and all other indebtedness at any time owing by Administrative Agent or any Lender to or for the credit or account of Borrower against any Indebtedness.

                    Borrower hereby appoints Administrative Agent as Borrower’s attorney-in-fact, which power of attorney is irrevocable and coupled with an interest, with full power of substitution if Administrative Agent so elects, to do any of the following in Borrower’s name upon the occurrence of a Default: (i) use such sums as are necessary, including any proceeds of the Loan and employ such architects, engineers, and contractors as may be required, or as Lenders may otherwise consider desirable, for the purpose of completing construction of the Improvements substantially in accordance with the Plans, the Loan Documents, and all applicable Laws, governmental requirements and restrictive covenants; (ii) endorse the name of Borrower on any checks or drafts representing proceeds of any insurance policies, or other checks or instruments payable to Borrower with respect to the Property; (iii) do every act with respect to the construction of the Tenant Improvements that Borrower may do; (iv) prosecute or defend any action or proceeding incident to the Property, (v) pay, settle, or compromise all bills and claims so as to clear title to the Property; and (vi) take over and use all or any part of the labor, materials, supplies and equipment contracted for, owned by, or under the control of Borrower, whether or not previously incorporated into the Improvements. Any amounts expended by Administrative Agent itself or on behalf of Lenders to construct or to complete the Tenant Improvements in connection with the exercise of its remedies herein shall be deemed to have been advanced to Borrower hereunder as a demand obligation owing by Borrower to Administrative Agent or Lenders as applicable and shall constitute a portion of the Indebtedness, regardless of whether such amounts exceed any limits for Indebtedness otherwise set forth herein. Neither Administrative Agent nor Lenders shall have any liability to Borrower for the sufficiency or adequacy of any such actions taken by Administrative Agent.

                    No delay or omission of Administrative Agent or Lenders to exercise any right, power or remedy accruing upon the happening of a Default shall impair any such right, power or remedy or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such Default or any acquiescence therein. No delay or omission on the part of Administrative Agent or Lenders to exercise any option for acceleration of the maturity of the Indebtedness, or for foreclosure of the Mortgage following any Default as aforesaid, or any other option granted to Administrative Agent and Lenders hereunder in any one or more instances, or the acceptances by Administrative Agent or Lenders of any partial payment on account of the Indebtedness, shall constitute a waiver of any such Default, and each such option shall remain continuously in full force and effect. No remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to Administrative Agent and/or Lenders is intended to be exclusive of any other remedies provided for in any Note or any of the other Loan Documents, and each and every such remedy shall be cumulative, and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder, or under any Note or any of the other Loan Documents, or now or hereafter existing at Law or in equity or by statute. Every right, power and remedy given to Administrative Agent and Lenders by this Agreement, any Note or any of the other Loan Documents shall be concurrent, and may be pursued separately, successively or together against Borrower, or the Property or any part thereof, or any personal property granted as security under the Loan Documents, and every right, power and remedy given by this Agreement, any Note or any of the other Loan Documents may be exercised from time to time as often as may be deemed expedient by the Required Lenders.

26


                    Regardless of how a Lender may treat payments received from the exercise of remedies under the Loan Documents for the purpose of its own accounting, for the purpose of computing the Indebtedness, payments shall be applied as elected by Lenders. No application of payments will cure any event of Default, or prevent acceleration, or continued acceleration, of amounts payable under the Loan Documents, or prevent the exercise, or continued exercise, of rights or remedies of Administrative Agent and Lenders hereunder or thereunder or at Law or in equity.

ARTICLE 5
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

                      5.1. Appointment and Authorization of Administrative Agent.

                         (a) Each Lender hereby irrevocably (subject to Section 5.9) appoints, designates and authorizes Administrative Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other Loan Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to it by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere herein or in any other Loan Document, Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, nor shall Administrative Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against Administrative Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” herein and in the other Loan Documents with reference to Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.

                         (b) No individual Lender or group of Lenders shall have any right to amend or waive, or consent to the departure of any party from any provision of any Loan Document, or secure or enforce the obligations of Borrower or any other party pursuant to the Loan Documents, or otherwise. All such rights, on behalf of Administrative Agent or any Lender or Lenders, shall be held and exercised solely by and at the option of Administrative Agent for the pro rata benefit of Lenders. Such rights, however, are subject to the rights of a Lender or Lenders, as expressly set forth in this Agreement, to approve matters or direct Administrative Agent to take or refrain from taking action as set forth in this Agreement. Except as expressly otherwise provided in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, Administrative Agent shall have and may use its sole discretion with respect to exercising or refraining from exercising any discretionary rights, or taking or refraining from taking any actions which Administrative Agent is expressly entitled to exercise or take under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, (i) the determination if and to what extent matters or items subject to Administrative Agent’s satisfaction are acceptable or otherwise within its discretion, (ii) the making of Administrative Agent Advances, and (iii) the exercise of remedies pursuant to, but

27


subject to, Article 4 or pursuant to any other Loan Document and any action so taken or not taken shall be deemed consented to by Lenders.

                         (c) In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to Borrower or Guarantor, no individual Lender or group of Lenders shall have the right, and Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of the Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on Borrower) shall be exclusively entitled and empowered on behalf of itself and Lenders, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

 

 

 

               (i) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loan and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of Lenders and Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of Lenders and Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due Lenders and Administrative Agent under Section 6.10 and Exhibit “K” allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

 

 

 

               (ii) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to Administrative Agent and, in the event that Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to Lenders, to pay to Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due Administrative Agent under Section 6.10.

                    Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of Lenders except as approved by Required Lenders or to authorize Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claims of Lenders except as approved by Required Lenders in any such proceeding.

                    5.2. Delegation of Duties. Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel and other consultant experts concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects with reasonable care.

                    5.3. Liability of Administrative Agent. No Agent-Related Persons shall (i) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct), or (ii) be responsible in any manner to any of

28


Lenders for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by Borrower or any subsidiary or Affiliate of Borrower, or any officer thereof, contained herein or in any other Loan Document, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for any failure of Borrower or any other party to any Loan Document to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. No Agent-Related Person shall be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of Borrower, Guarantor or any of their Affiliates.

                    5.4. Reliance by Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex or telephone message, statement or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper person or persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to any party to the Loan Documents), independent accountants and other experts selected by Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders or all Lenders if required hereunder as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance with a request or consent of the Required Lenders or such greater number of Lenders as may be expressly required hereby in any instance, and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all Lenders. In the absence of written instructions from the Required Lenders or such greater number of Lenders, as expressly required hereunder, Administrative Agent may take or not take any action, at its discretion, unless this Agreement specifically requires the consent of the Required Lenders or such greater number of Lenders.

                    5.5. Notice of Default. Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default, unless Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default that Administrative Agent determines will have a Material Adverse Effect. Administrative Agent will notify Lenders of its receipt of any such notice. Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default as may be requested by the Required Lenders in accordance with Article 4; provided, however, that unless and until Administrative Agent has received any such request, Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default as it shall deem advisable or in the best interest of Lenders.

29


                    5.6. Credit Decision; Disclosure of Information by Administrative Agent.

                         (a) Each Lender acknowledges that none of Agent-Related Persons has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by Administrative Agent hereafter taken, including any consent to and acceptance of any assignment or review of the affairs of Borrower and Guarantor, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent-Related Person to any Lenders as to any matter, including whether Agent-Related Persons have disclosed material information in their possession. Each Lender represents to Administrative Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of Borrower and Guarantor, and all applicable bank or other regulatory Laws relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to Borrower and Guarantor hereunder. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of Borrower and Guarantor.

                         (b) Administrative Agent upon its receipt shall provide each Lender such notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to Lenders by Administrative Agent herein. To the extent not already available to a Lender, Administrative Agent shall also provide Lender and/or make available for Lender’s inspection during reasonable business hours and at Lender’s expense, upon Lender’s written request therefor: (i) copies of the Loan Documents; (ii) such information as is then in Administrative Agent’s possession in respect of the current status of principal and interest payments and accruals in respect of the Loan; (iii) copies of all current financial statements in respect of Borrower, any Guarantor or other person liable for payment or performance by Borrower of any obligations under the Loan Documents, then in Administrative Agent’s possession with respect to the Loan; and (iv) other current factual information then in Administrative Agent’s possession with respect to the Loan and bearing on the continuing creditworthiness of Borrower or any Guarantor, or any of their respective Affiliates; provided that nothing contained in this Section shall impose any liability upon Administrative Agent for its failure to provide a Lender any of such Loan Documents, information, or financial statements, unless such failure constitutes willful misconduct or gross negligence on Administrative Agent’s part; and provided further that Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to provide any Lender with any information in violation of Law or any contractual restrictions on the disclosure thereof (provided such contractual restrictions shall not apply to distributing to a Lender factual and financial information expressly required to be provided herein). Except as set forth above, Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lenders with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of Borrower or Guarantor or any of their respective Affiliates which may come into the possession of any of Agent-Related Persons.

30


                    5.7. Indemnification of Administrative Agent. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, Lenders shall indemnify upon demand each Agent-Related Person (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of Borrower and without limiting the obligation of Borrower to do so), pro rata, and hold harmless each Agent-Related Person from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by it; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for the payment to any Agent-Related Person of any portion of such Indemnified Liabilities to the extent determined in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Agent-Related Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct; provided, however, that no action taken in accordance with the directions of the Required Lenders shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section. Without limitation of the foregoing, to the extent that Administrative Agent is not reimbursed by or on behalf of Borrower, each Lender shall reimburse Administrative Agent upon demand for its ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including attorney fees) incurred by Administrative Agent as described in Section 6.10. The undertaking in this Section shall survive the payment of all Indebtedness hereunder and the resignation or replacement of Administrative Agent.

                    5.8. Administrative Agent in Individual Capacity. Administrative Agent, in its individual capacity, and its Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire equity interests in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting or other business with any party to the Loan Documents and their respective Affiliates as though Administrative Agent were not Administrative Agent hereunder and without notice to or consent of Lenders. Lenders acknowledge that Borrower and Bank of America, N.A. or its Affiliate have entered or may enter into Swap Transactions. A portion of the Loan may be funded to honor Borrower’s payment obligations under the terms of such Swap Transactions, and Lenders shall have no right to share in any portion of such payments. Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, Bank of America, N.A. or its Affiliates may receive information regarding any party to the Loan Documents, or their respective Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such parties or such parties’ Affiliates) and acknowledge that Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them. With respect to its Pro Rata Share of the Loan, Bank of America, N.A. shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lenders and may exercise such rights and powers as though it were not Administrative Agent or party to Swap Transactions, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” include Bank of America, N.A. in its individual capacity.

                    5.9. Successor Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent may, and at the request of the Required Lenders as a result of Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct in performing its duties under this Agreement shall, resign as Administrative Agent upon thirty (30) days’ notice to Lenders. If Administrative Agent resigns under this Agreement, the Required Lenders shall appoint from among Lenders a successor administrative agent for Lenders, which successor administrative agent shall be consented to by Borrower at all times other than during the existence of a Default (which consent of Borrower shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If no successor administrative agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent may appoint, after consulting with Lenders and Borrower, a successor administrative agent from among Lenders. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor administrative agent hereunder,

31


such successor administrative agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent and the term “Administrative Agent” shall mean such successor administrative agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent’s appointment, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article and other applicable Sections of this Agreement shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement. If no successor administrative agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent by the date which is thirty (30) days following a retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and Lenders shall perform all of the duties of Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above.

                    5.10. Releases; Acquisition and Transfers of Collateral.

                         (a) Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize Administrative Agent to transfer or release any lien on, or after foreclosure or other acquisition of title by Administrative Agent on behalf of Lenders to transfer or sell, any Loan collateral (i) upon the termination of the Commitments and payment and satisfaction in full of all Indebtedness, (ii) constituting a release, transfer or sale of a lien or Loan collateral if Borrower will certify to Administrative Agent that the release, transfer or sale is permitted under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (and Administrative Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate, without further inquiry); or (iv) after foreclosure or other acquisition of title (1) for a purchase price of at least 90% of the value indicated in the most recent appraisal of the collateral obtained by Administrative Agent made in accordance with regulations governing Administrative Agent, less any reduction indicated in the appraisal estimated by experts in such areas; or (2) if approved by the Required Lenders.

                         (b) If all or any portion of the Loan collateral is acquired by foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure, Administrative Agent shall take title to the collateral in its name or by an Affiliate of Administrative Agent, but for the benefit of all Lenders in their Pro Rata Shares on the date of the foreclosure sale or recordation of the deed in lieu of foreclosure (the “Acquisition Date”). Administrative Agent and all Lenders hereby expressly waive and relinquish any right of partition with respect to any collateral so acquired. After any collateral is acquired, Administrative Agent shall appoint and retain one or more persons (individually and collectively, “Property Manager”) experienced in the management, leasing, sale and/or dispositions of similar properties.

                         After consulting with the Property Manager, Administrative Agent shall prepare a written plan for completion of construction (if required), operation, management, improvement, maintenance, repair, sale and disposition of the Loan collateral and a budget for the aforesaid, which may include a reasonable management fee payable to Administrative Agent (the “Business Plan”). Administrative Agent will deliver the Business Plan not later than the sixtieth (60th) day after the Acquisition Date to each Lender with a written request for approval of the Business Plan. If the Business Plan is approved by the Required Lenders, Administrative Agent and the Property Manager shall adhere to the Business Plan until a different Business Plan is approved by the Required Lenders. Administrative Agent may propose an amendment to the

32


Business Plan as it deems appropriate, which shall also be subject to Required Lender approval. If the Business Plan (as may be amended) proposed by Administrative Agent is not approved by the Required Lenders, (or if sixty (60) days have elapsed following the Acquisition Date without a Business Plan being proposed by Administrative Agent), any Lender may propose an alternative Business Plan, which Administrative Agent shall submit to all Lenders for their approval. If an alternative Business Plan is approved by the Required Lenders, Administrative Agent may appoint one of the approving Lenders to implement the alternative Business Plan. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, unless in violation of an approved Business Plan or otherwise in an emergency situation, Administrative Agent shall, subject to subsection (a) of this Section, have the right but not the obligation to take any action in connection with the Loan collateral (including those with respect to property taxes, insurance premiums, completion of construction, operation, management, improvement, maintenance, repair, sale and disposition), or any portion thereof.

                         (c) Upon request by Administrative Agent or Borrower at any time, Lenders will confirm in writing Administrative Agent’s authority to sell, transfer or release any such liens of particular types or items of Loan collateral pursuant to this Section; provided, however, that (i) Administrative Agent shall not be required to execute any document necessary to evidence such release, transfer or sale on terms that, in Administrative Agent’s opinion, would expose Administrative Agent to liability or create any obligation or entail any consequence other than the transfer, release or sale without recourse, representation or warranty, and (ii) such transfer, release or sale shall not in any manner discharge, affect or impair the obligations of Borrower other than those expressly being released.

                         (d) If only two (2) Lenders exist at the time Administrative Agent receives a purchase offer for Loan collateral for which one of Lenders does not consent within ten (10) Business Days after notification from Administrative Agent, the consenting Lender may offer (“Purchase Offer”) to purchase all of non-consenting Lender’s right, title and interest in the collateral for a purchase price equal to non-consenting Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the net proceeds anticipated from such sale of such collateral (as reasonably determined by Administrative Agent, including the undiscounted face principal amount of any purchase money obligation not payable at closing) (“Net Proceeds”). Within ten (10) Business Days thereafter the non-consenting Lender shall be deemed to have accepted such Purchase Offer unless the non-consenting Lender notifies Administrative Agent that it elects to purchase all of the consenting Lender’s right, title and interest in the collateral for a purchase price payable by the non-consenting Lender in an amount equal to the consenting Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Net Proceeds. Any amount payable hereunder by a Lender shall be due on the earlier to occur of the closing of the sale of the collateral or ninety (90) days after the Purchase Offer, regardless of whether the collateral has been sold.

                    5.11. Application of Payments. Except as otherwise provided below with respect to Defaulting Lenders, aggregate principal and interest payments, payments for Indemnified Liabilities and/or foreclosure or sale of the collateral, and net operating income from the collateral during any period it is owned by Administrative Agent on behalf of Lenders (“Payments”) shall be apportioned pro rata among Lenders and payments of any fees (other than fees designated for Administrative Agent’s separate account) shall, as applicable, be apportioned pro rata among Lenders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, all

33


Payments due and payable to Defaulting Lenders shall be due and payable to and be apportioned pro rata among Administrative Agent and Electing Lenders. Such apportionment shall be in the proportion that the Defaulting Lender Payment Amounts paid by them bears to the total Defaulting Lender Payment Amounts of such Defaulting Lender. Such apportionment shall be made until Administrative Agent and Lenders have been paid in full for the Defaulting Lender Payment Amounts. All pro rata Payments shall be remitted to Administrative Agent and all such payments not constituting payment of specific fees, and all proceeds of the Loan collateral received by Administrative Agent, shall be applied first, to pay any fees, indemnities, costs, expenses (including those in Section 5.7) and reimbursements then due to Administrative Agent from Borrower; second, to pay any fees, costs, expenses and reimbursements then due to Lenders from Borrower; third, to pay pro rata interest and late charges due in respect of the Indebtedness and Administrative Agent Advances; fourth, to pay or prepay pro rata principal of the Indebtedness and Administrative Agent Advances; fifth, to pay any indebtedness of Borrower under Swap Transactions; and last, to Borrower, if required by law, or Lenders in Pro Rata Share percentages equal to their percentages at the termination of the Aggregate Commitments.

                    5.12. Benefit. The terms and conditions of this Article are inserted for the sole benefit of Administrative Agent and Lenders; the same may be waived in whole or in part, with or without terms or conditions, without prejudicing Administrative Agent’s or Lenders’ rights to later assert them in whole or in part.

ARTICLE 6
GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS

                    6.1. Consents; Borrower’s Indemnity. Except where otherwise expressly provided in the Loan Documents, in any instance where the approval, consent or the exercise of Administrative Agent’s or Lenders’ judgment is required, the granting or denial of such approval or consent and the exercise of such judgment shall be (a) within the sole discretion of Administrative Agent or Lenders; (b) deemed to have been given only by a specific writing intended for the purpose given and executed by Administrative Agent or Lenders; and (c) free from any limitation or requirement of reasonableness. Notwithstanding any approvals or consents by Administrative Agent or Lenders, neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender has any obligation or responsibility whatsoever for the adequacy, form or content of any appraisal, any contract, any lease, or any other matter incident to the Property. Administrative Agent’s or Lenders’ acceptance of an assignment of the Plans for the benefit of Administrative Agent and Lenders shall not constitute approval of the Plans. Any inspection, appraisal or audit of the Property or the books and records of Borrower, or the procuring of documents and financial and other information, by or on behalf of Administrative Agent shall be for Administrative Agent’s and Lenders’ protection only, and shall not constitute an assumption of responsibility to Borrower or anyone else with regard to the condition, value, construction, maintenance or operation of the Property, or relieve Borrower of any of Borrower’s obligations. Borrower has selected all surveyors, architects, engineers, contractors, materialmen and all other persons or entities furnishing services or materials to the Project. Neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender has any duty to supervise or to inspect the Property or the construction of the Improvements nor any duty of care to Borrower or any other person to protect against, or inform Borrower or any other person of the existence of, negligent, faulty, inadequate or defective

design or construction of the Improvements. Neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall be liable or responsible for, and Borrower shall indemnify each Agent-Related Person and each Lender and their respective Affiliates, directors, officers, agents, attorneys and employees (collectively, the “Indemnitees”) from and against: (a) any claim, action, loss or cost (including attorney’s fees and costs) arising from or relating to (i) any defect in the Property or the Improvements, (ii) the performance or default of Borrower, Borrower’s surveyors, architects, engineers, contractors or any other person, (iii) any failure to construct, complete, protect or insure the Improvements, (iv) the payment of costs of labor, materials, or services supplied for the construction, alteration or renovation of the Improvements, including, without limitation, Tenant Improvements, (v) in connection with the protection and preservation of the Loan collateral (including those with respect to property taxes, insurance premiums, completion of construction, operation, management, improvements, maintenance, repair, sale and disposition), or (vi) the performance of any obligation of Borrower whatsoever; (b) any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, demands, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses and disbursements (including attorney fees and costs) of any kind or nature whatsoever which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any such Indemnitee in any way relating to or arising out of or in connection with (i) the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance or administration of any Loan Document or any other agreement, letter or instrument delivered in connection with the transactions contemplated thereby or the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, (ii) any Commitment or Loan, or (iii) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory (including any investigation of, preparation for, or defense of any pending or threatened claim, investigation, litigation or proceeding) and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; (c) any and all claims, demands, actions or causes of action arising out of or relating to the use of Information (as defined in Section 6.6) or other materials obtained through internet, Intralinks or other similar information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement; and (d) any and all liabilities, losses, costs or expenses (including attorney fees and costs) that any Indemnitee suffers or incurs as a result of the assertion of any foregoing claim, demand, action, cause of action or proceeding, or as a result of the preparation of any defense in connection with any foregoing claim, demand, action, cause of action or proceeding, in all cases, whether or not an Indemnitee is a party to such claim, demand, action, cause of action or proceeding and whether it is defeated, successful or withdrawn, (all the foregoing, collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”); provided, however, that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, demands, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. Nothing, including any advance or acceptance of any document or instrument, shall be construed as a representation or warranty, express or implied, to any party by Administrative Agent or Lenders. Inspection shall not constitute an acknowledgment or representation by Administrative Agent or any Lender that there has been or will be compliance with the Plans, the Loan Documents, or applicable Laws, governmental requirements and restrictive covenants, or that the construction is free from defective materials or workmanship. Inspection, whether or not followed by notice of Default, shall not constitute a waiver of any Default then existing, or a waiver of Administrative Agent’s and Lenders’ right thereafter to insist that the Improvements be in compliance with the Plans, the

35


Loan Documents, and all applicable Laws, governmental requirements and restrictive covenants. Administrative Agent’s failure to inspect shall not constitute a waiver of any of Administrative Agent’s or Lenders’ rights under the Loan Documents or at Law or in equity.

                         6.2. Miscellaneous. This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, all of which are identical, and all of which counterparts together shall constitute one and the same instrument. A determination that any provision of this Agreement is unenforceable or invalid shall not affect the enforceability or validity of any other provision and the determination that the application of any provision of this Agreement to any person or circumstance is illegal or unenforceable shall not affect the enforceability or validity of such provision as it may apply to other persons, entities or circumstances. Time shall be of the essence with respect to obligations under the Loan Documents. This Agreement, and its validity, enforcement and interpretation, shall be governed by New York law (without regard to any conflict of Laws principles) and applicable United States federal Law.

                         6.3. Notices.

                    6.3.1. Modes of Delivery; Changes. Except as otherwise provided herein, all notices, and other communications required or which any party desires to give under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be in writing. Unless otherwise specifically provided in such other Loan Document, all such notices and other communications shall be deemed sufficiently given or furnished if delivered by personal delivery, by courier (including overnight delivery services such as FedEx), by registered or certified United States mail, postage prepaid, or by facsimile (with, subject to Subsection 6.3.2 below, a confirmatory duplicate copy sent by first class United States mail), addressed to the party to whom directed or by (subject to Subsection 6.3.3 below) electronic mail address to Borrower, at the addresses set forth at the end of this Agreement or to Administrative Agent or Lenders at the addresses specified for notices on the Schedule of Lenders (unless changed by similar notice in writing given by the particular party whose address is to be changed). Any such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been given and received either at the time of personal delivery or, in the case of courier or mail, as of the date of first attempted delivery at the address and in the manner provided herein, or, in the case of facsimile, upon receipt; provided, however, that service of a notice required by any applicable statute shall be considered complete when the requirements of that statute are met. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no notice of change of address shall be effective except upon actual receipt. This Section shall not be construed in any way to affect or impair any waiver of notice or demand provided in any Loan Document or to require giving of notice or demand to or upon any person in any situation or for any reason.

                    6.3.2. Effectiveness of Facsimile Documents and Signatures. Loan Documents may be transmitted and/or signed by facsimile. The effectiveness of any such documents and signatures shall, subject to applicable Law, have the same force and effect as manually-signed originals and shall be binding on all parties to the Loan Documents. Administrative Agent may also require that any such documents and signatures be confirmed by a manually-signed original thereof; provided, however, that the failure to request or deliver the same shall not limit the effectiveness of any facsimile document or signature.

36


                    6.3.3. Limited Use of Electronic Mail. Electronic mail and internet and intranet websites may be used only to distribute routine communications, such as financial statements and other information, and to distribute Loan Documents for execution by the parties thereto, and may not be used for any other purpose.

                    6.3.4. Reliance by Administrative Agent and Lenders. Administrative Agent and Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices (including telephonic Loan advance notices) purportedly given by or on behalf of Borrower even if (i) such notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other form of notice specified herein, or (ii) the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof. Borrower shall indemnify each Agent-Related Person and each Lender from all losses, costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such person on each notice purportedly given by or on behalf of Borrower. All telephonic notices to and other communications with Administrative Agent may be recorded by Administrative Agent, and each of the parties hereto hereby consents to such recording. If a Lender does not notify or inform Administrative Agent of whether or not it consents to, or approves of or agrees to any matter of any nature whatsoever with respect to which its consent, approval or agreement is required under the express provisions of this Agreement or with respect to which its consent, approval or agreement is otherwise requested by Administrative Agent, in connection with the Loan or any matter pertaining to the Loan, within ten (10) Business Days (or such longer period as may be specified by Administrative Agent) after such consent, approval or agreement is requested by Administrative Agent, Lender shall be deemed to have given its consent, approval or agreement, as the case may be, with respect to the matter in question.

                    6.4. Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of Borrower is made to Administrative Agent or any Lender, or Administrative Agent or any Lender exercises its right of set-off, and such payment or the proceeds of such set-off or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by Administrative Agent or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law, to a depository (including Administrative Agent, any Lender or its or their Affiliates) for returned items or insufficient collected funds, or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such set-off had not occurred, and (b) each Lender severally agrees to pay to Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share of any amount so recovered from or repaid by Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect.

                    6.5. Successors and Assigns.

                    (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender, and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an Eligible Assignee in accordance with

37


the provisions of subsection (b) of this Section, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of subsection (d) of this Section, or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of subsection (f) of this Section (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Indemnitees) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

                    (b) Any Lender may assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and Pro Rata Share of the Loan at the time owing to it); provided that:

 

 

 

          (i) so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing the assigning Lender’s Commitment after the assignment must be at least $10,000,000.00, and except in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and Pro Rata Share of the Loan at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund as defined in subsection (h) of this Section with respect to a Lender, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes its Pro Rata Share of the Loan outstanding) subject to each such assignment, determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to Administrative Agent, shall not be less than $10,000,000 unless each of Administrative Agent and, so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed);

 

 

 

          (ii) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to its Pro Rata Share of the Loan and the Commitment assigned;

 

 

 

          (iii) any assignment of a Commitment must be approved by Administrative Agent, unless the person that is the proposed assignee is itself a Lender (whether or not the proposed assignee would otherwise qualify as an Eligible Assignee); and

 

 

 

          (iv) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500.

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of this Agreement with respect to Borrower’s obligations surviving

38


termination of this Agreement). Upon request, Administrative Agent shall prepare and Borrower shall execute and deliver a Note (“Replacement Note”) to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with subsection (d) of this Section.

                    (c) Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of Borrower shall maintain at Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amount of each Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Loan owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and Borrower, Administrative Agent and Lenders may treat each person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

                    (d) Any Lender may, without the consent of, but with prior notice to Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or its Pro Rata Share of the Loan owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) Borrower, Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, and (iv) except to the extent consented to by Administrative Agent in its sole discretion with respect to each participation, any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement.

                    (e) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 1.7, 1.8 or 1.9 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant.

                    (f) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Note, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

                    (g) If the consent of Borrower to an assignment or to an assignee is required hereunder (including a consent to an assignment which does not meet the minimum assignment threshold specified in clause (i) of the provision to the first sentence of subsection (b) above), Borrower shall be deemed to have given its consent five (5) Business Days after the date notice

39


thereof has been delivered by the assigning Lender (through Administrative Agent) unless such consent is expressly refused by Borrower prior to such fifth Business Day.

                    (h) As used herein, the following terms have the following meanings:

          “Approved Fund” means any Fund that is administered or managed by (a) a Lender, (b) an Affiliate of a Lender or (c) an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender.

          “Eligible Assignee” means (a) a Lender; (b) an Affiliate of a Lender; (c) an Approved Fund; and (d) any other person (other than a natural person) approved by Administrative Agent, and, unless a Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower (each such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

          “Fund” means any person (other than a natural person) that is (or will be) engaged in making, purchasing, holding or otherwise investing in commercial real estate loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business.

                    6.6. Confidentiality. Each of Administrative Agent and Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential); (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority; (c) to the extent required by applicable Laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process; (d) to any other party to this Agreement; (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the enforcement of rights hereunder; (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or participant in, or any prospective assignee of or participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any direct or indirect contractual counterparty or prospective counterparty (or such contractual counterparty’s or prospective counterparty’s professional advisor) to any Swap Transaction or credit derivative transaction relating to obligations of Borrower and Guarantor; (g) with the consent of Borrower; or (h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than Borrower; or (i) to the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any other similar organization. For the purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from Borrower or Guarantor relating to Borrower or Guarantor or their business, other than any such information that is available to Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by Borrower or Guarantor; provided that in the case of information received from Borrower or Guarantor after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified in writing at the time of delivery as confidential. Any person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such person would accord to its own confidential information. Administrative Agent and Lenders may disclose the existence of this Agreement and information about this Agreement to market data

40


collectors, similar service providers to the lending industry, and service providers to Administrative Agent and Lenders in connection with the administration and management of this Agreement, the Loan and Loan Documents.

                    6.7. Set-off. In addition to any rights and remedies of Administrative Agent and Lenders provided by Law, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default, Administrative Agent and each Lender is authorized at any time and from time to time, without prior notice to Borrower or any other party to the Loan Documents, any such notice being waived by Borrower (on its own behalf and on behalf of each party to the Loan Documents to the fullest extent permitted by Law), to set-off and apply any and all deposits, general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, any time owing by Administrative Agent or such Lender hereunder or under any other Loan Document to or for the credit or the account of such parties to the Loan Documents against any and all Indebtedness, irrespective of whether or not Administrative Agent or such Lender shall have made demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such Indebtedness may be contingent or unmatured or denominated in a currency different from that of the applicable depositor indebtedness. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify Borrower and Administrative Agent after any such set-off and application made by such Lender; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.

                    6.8. Sharing of Payments. If, other than as expressly provided elsewhere herein, any Lender shall obtain on account of the portions of the Loan advanced by it, any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise) in excess of its ratable share (or other share contemplated hereunder) thereof, such Lender shall immediately (a) notify Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the portions of the Loan made by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment in respect of such portions of the Loan or such participations, as the case may be, pro rata with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from the purchasing Lender under any of the circumstances described in Section 6.4 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the purchasing Lender in its discretion), such purchase shall to that extent be rescinded and each other Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price paid therefor, together with an amount equal to such paying Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such paying Lender’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered without further interest thereon. Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender may, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off), but subject to Section 6.7 with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of Borrower in the amount of such participation. Administrative Agent will keep records (which shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error) of participations purchased under this Section and will in each case notify Lenders following any such purchases or repayments. Each Lender that purchases a participation pursuant to this Section shall from and after such purchase have the right to give all notices, requests, demands, directions and other communications under this Agreement with respect to the portion of the Obligations purchased to the same extent as though the purchasing Lender were the original owner of the Obligations purchased.

41


                    6.9. Amendments; Survival. Administrative Agent and Lenders shall be entitled to amend (whether pursuant to a separate intercreditor agreement or otherwise) any of the terms, conditions or agreements set forth in Article 5 or as to any other matter in the Loan Documents respecting payments to Administrative Agent or Lenders or the required number of Lenders to approve or disapprove any matter or to take or refrain from taking any action, without the consent of Borrower or any other person or the execution by Borrower or any other person of any such amendment or intercreditor agreement. Subject to the foregoing, Administrative Agent may amend or waive any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or consent to any departure by any party to the Loan Documents therefrom which amendment, waiver or consent is intended to be within Administrative Agent’s discretion or determination, or otherwise in Administrative Agent’s reasonable determination shall not have a Material Adverse Effect; provided, however, that otherwise no such amendment, waiver or consent shall be effective unless in writing, signed by the Required Lenders and Borrower or the applicable party to the Loan Documents, as the case may be, and acknowledged by Administrative Agent, and each such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; and provided further that no such amendment, waiver or consent shall:

 

 

 

               (a) extend or increase the Commitment of any Lender (or reinstate any Commitment terminated pursuant to Section 4.2), without the written consent of such Lender (it being understood that a waiver of a Default shall not constitute an extension or increase in any Lender’s Commitment);

 

 

 

               (b) postpone any date fixed by this Agreement or any other Loan Document for any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts due to Lenders (or any of them) hereunder or under any other Loan Document, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby;

 

 

 

               (c) reduce the principal of, or the rate of interest specified herein on, any portion of the Loan or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; provided, however, that Administrative Agent may waive any obligation of Borrower to pay interest at the Default Rate and/or late charges for periods of up to thirty (30) days, and only the consent of the Required Lenders shall be necessary to waive any obligation of Borrower to pay interest at the Default Rate or late charges thereafter, or to amend the definition of “Default Rate” or “late charges”;

 

 

 

               (d) change the percentage of the combined Commitments or of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Loan which is required for Lenders or any of them to take any action hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender;

 

 

 

               (e) change the definition of “Pro Rata Share” or “Required Lender” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to amend, waive or otherwise modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender;

 

 

 

               (f) amend this Section, or Section 6.8, without the written consent of each Lender;

42



 

 

 

               (g) release the liability of Borrower or any existing Guarantor without the written consent of each Lender;

 

 

 

               (h) permit the sale, transfer, pledge, mortgage or assignment of any Loan collateral or any direct or indirect interest in Borrower, except as expressly permitted under the Loan Documents, without the written consent of each Lender; or

 

 

 

               (i) transfer or release any lien on, or after foreclosure or other acquisition of title by Administrative Agent on behalf of Lenders transfer or sell, any Loan collateral except as permitted in Section 5.10, without the written consent of each Lender,

and provided further that no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by Administrative Agent in addition to Lenders required above, affect the rights or duties of Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder, except that the Commitment of such Lender may not be increased without the consent of such Lender.

                    This Agreement shall continue in full force and effect until the Indebtedness is paid in full and all of Administrative Agent’s and Lenders’ obligations under this Agreement are terminated; and all representations and warranties and all provisions herein for indemnity of the Indemnitees, Administrative Agent and Lenders (and any other provisions herein specified to survive) shall survive payment in full, satisfaction or discharge of the Indebtedness, the resignation or removal of Administrative Agent or replacement of any Lender, and any release or termination of this Agreement or of any other Loan Documents.

                    6.10. Costs and Expenses. Without limiting any Loan Document and to the extent not prohibited by applicable Laws, Borrower shall pay when due, shall reimburse to Administrative Agent for the benefit of itself and Lenders on demand and shall indemnify Administrative Agent and Lenders from, all reasonable out-of-pocket fees, costs, and expenses paid or incurred by Administrative Agent in connection with the negotiation, preparation and execution of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (and any amendments, approvals, consents, waivers and releases requested, required, proposed or done from time to time), or in connection with the disbursement, administration or collection of the Loan or the enforcement of the obligations of Borrower or the exercise of any right or remedy of Administrative Agent, including (a) all reasonable fees and expenses of Administrative Agent’s counsel; (b) reasonable fees and charges of each inspector and engineer retained by Administrative Agent for purposes specified in this Agreement; (c) appraisal, re-appraisal and survey costs; (d) title insurance charges and premiums; (e) title search or examination costs, including abstracts, abstractors’ certificates and uniform commercial code searches; (f) judgment and tax lien searches for Borrower and each Guarantor; (g) escrow fees; (h) fees and costs of environmental investigations, site assessments and remediations; (i) recordation taxes, documentary taxes, transfer taxes and mortgage taxes; (j) filing and recording fees; and (k) loan brokerage fees. Borrower shall pay all costs and expenses incurred by Administrative Agent, including attorneys’ fees, if the obligations or any part thereof are sought to be collected by or through an attorney at law, whether or not involving probate, appellate, administrative or bankruptcy proceedings. Borrower shall pay all costs and expenses of complying with the Loan Documents, whether or

43


not such costs and expenses are included in any budget related to the Property. Borrower’s obligations under this Section shall survive the delivery of the Loan Documents, the making of advances, the payment in full of the Indebtedness, the release or reconveyance of any of the Loan Documents, the foreclosure of the Mortgage or conveyance in lieu of foreclosure, any bankruptcy or other debtor relief proceeding, and any other event whatsoever.

                    6.11. Tax Forms.

                         (a) (i) Each Lender, and each holder of a participation interest herein, that is not a “United States person” (a “Foreign Lender”) within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver to Administrative Agent, prior to receipt of any payment subject to withholding (or upon accepting an assignment or receiving a participation interest herein), two duly signed completed copies of either Form W-8BEN or any successor thereto (relating to such Foreign Lender and entitling it to a complete exemption from withholding on all payments to be made to such Foreign Lender by Borrower pursuant to this Agreement) or Form W-8ECI or any successor thereto (relating to all payments to be made to such Foreign Lender by Borrower pursuant to this Agreement) of the United States Internal Revenue Service or such other evidence satisfactory to Borrower and Administrative Agent that such Foreign Lender is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of, United States withholding tax, including any exemption pursuant to Section 881(c) of the Code. Thereafter and from time to time, each such Foreign Lender shall (A) promptly submit to Administrative Agent such additional duly completed and signed copies of one of such forms (or such successor forms as shall be adopted from time to time by the relevant United States taxing authorities) as may then be available under then current United States Laws and regulations to avoid, or such evidence as is satisfactory to Borrower and Administrative Agent of any available exemption from or reduction of, United States withholding taxes in respect of all payments to be made to such Foreign Lender by Borrower pursuant to the Loan Documents, (B) promptly notify Administrative Agent of any change in circumstances which would modify or render invalid any claimed exemption or reduction, and (C) take such steps as shall not be materially disadvantageous to it, in the reasonable judgment of such Lenders, and as may be reasonably necessary (including the re-designation of its lending office, if any) to avoid any requirement of applicable Laws that Borrower make any deduction or withholding for taxes from amounts payable to such Foreign Lender.

                             (ii) Each Foreign Lender, to the extent it does not act or ceases to act for its own account with respect to any portion of any sums paid or payable to such Lender under any of the Loan Documents (for example, in the case of a typical participation by such Lender), shall deliver to Administrative Agent on the date when such Foreign Lender ceases to act for its own account with respect to any portion of any such sums paid or payable, and at such other times as may be necessary in the determination of Administrative Agent (in the reasonable exercise of its discretion), (A) two duly signed completed copies of the forms or statements required to be provided by such Lender as set forth above, to establish the portion of any such sums paid or payable with respect to which such Lender acts for its own account that is not subject to U.S. withholding tax, and (B) two duly signed completed copies of United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY (or any successor thereto), together with any information such Lender chooses to transmit with such form, and any other certificate or statement of exemption required under the Code, to establish that such Lender is not acting for its own account with respect to a portion of any such sums payable to such Lender.

44


                          (iii) Borrower shall not be required to pay any additional amount to any Foreign Lender under Section 1.11, (A) with respect to any Taxes required to be deducted or withheld on the basis of the information, certificates or statements of exemption such Lender transmits with an United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY pursuant to this subsection (a) of this Section, or (B) if such Lender shall have failed to satisfy the foregoing provisions of this subsection (a); provided that if such Lender shall have satisfied the requirement of this subsection (a) on the date such Lender became a Lender or ceased to act for its own account with respect to any payment under any of the Loan Documents, nothing in this subsection (a) shall relieve Borrower of its obligation to pay any amounts pursuant to Section 1.11 in the event that, as a result of any change in any applicable law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order, or any change in the interpretation, administration or application thereof, such Lender is no longer properly entitled to deliver forms, certificates or other evidence at a subsequent date establishing the fact that such Lender or other person for the account of which such Lender receives any sums payable under any of the Loan Documents is not subject to withholding or is subject to withholding at a reduced rate.

           (ii) A Draw Request.

 

 

 

          (iii) Evidence satisfactory to Administrative Agent that no Default or any event which, with the giving of notice or the lapse of time, or both, could become a Default, exists.

 

 

 

          (iv) Evidence satisfactory to Administrative Agent that the representations and warranties made in the Loan Documents must be true and correct on and as of the date of each advance and no event shall have occurred or condition or circumstance shall exist which, if known to Borrower, would render any such representation or warranty incorrect or misleading.

 

 

 

          (v) To the extent requested by Administrative Agent, a true and complete copy of each contract to which Borrower is a party, if applicable, for labor, materials, services and/or other work included in a Draw Request duly executed and delivered by all

           (vii) Evidence satisfactory to Administrative Agent that the Title Insurance has been endorsed and brought to date in a manner satisfactory to Administrative Agent to increase the coverage by the amount of each advance through the date of each such advance with no additional title change or exception not approved by Administrative Agent.

          (ix) Evidence satisfactory to Administrative Agent that the Improvements shall not have been damaged and not repaired and shall not be the subject of any pending or threatened condemnation or adverse zoning proceeding.

                    5. Conditions and Waivers. All conditions precedent to the obligation of Lenders to make any advance are imposed hereby solely for the benefit of Administrative Agent and Lenders, and no other party may require satisfaction of any such condition precedent or be entitled to assume that Lenders will refuse to make any advance in the absence of strict compliance with such conditions precedent. No advance shall constitute an approval or acceptance by Administrative Agent of any construction work, or a waiver of any condition precedent to any further advance, or preclude Administrative Agent from thereafter declaring the failure of Borrower to satisfy such condition precedent to be a Default. No waiver by Administrative Agent of any condition precedent or obligation shall preclude Administrative Agent from requiring such condition or obligation to be met prior to making any other advance or from thereafter declaring the failure to satisfy such condition or obligation to be a Default.

This is to certify to Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent for certain Lenders, _________________________, as Borrower and, _________________________, as the Title Company that this map or plat and the survey on which it is based were made in accordance with the “Minimum Standard Detail Requirements for ALTA/ACSM Land Title Surveys” jointly established and adopted by ALTA and NSPS in 2005, and include optional items 1, 2, 4 (in square feet or acres), 6, 8, 10, 11(b), 16, 17, 18, and if buildings are located on the land, optional items 7(a), 7(b)(1), 7(b)(2) and 9 of Table A thereof. Pursuant to the Accuracy Standards as adopted by ALTA and NSPS and in effect on the date of this certification, the undersigned further certifies that in my professional opinion, as a land surveyor registered in the State of ____________, the maximum Relative Positional Accuracy resulting from the measurements made on the survey does not exceed the Allowable Relative Positional Accuracy for Measurements Controlling Land Boundaries on ALTA/ACSM Land Title Surveys (0.07 feet or 20 mm + 50 ppm). The undersigned additionally certifies that (a) this survey was made on the ground under my supervision; (b) I have received and examined a copy of the Title Insurance Commitment No. _______________ issued by the Title Company as well as a copy of each instrument listed therein, and the subject land and each tract or parcel thereof described in this survey is the same land as described in the Title Commitment; (c) if the subject land consists of two or more tracts or parcels having common boundaries, those tracts and parcels are contiguous along the common boundaries; (d) the subject land and each tract or parcel thereof has a tax map designation separate and distinct from that of any other land and the subject land and each tract or parcel thereof is a separate, legally subdivided parcel; (e) this survey correctly shows all matters of record, (and to the extent they can be located, their location and dimensions) of which I have been advised affecting the subject land according to the legal description in such matters (with instrument, book,




 

 

 

and page number indicated); (f) except as shown on this survey, no part of the subject land is located in a 100-year Flood Plain or in an identified “flood prone area”, as defined pursuant to the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as amended, as reflected by Flood Insurance Rate Map Panel #____________ dated _______________, which such map panel covers the area in which the Property is situated and this survey correctly indicates the zone designation of any area as being in the 100-year Flood Plain or “flood prone area”; (g) to the best of my knowledge, this survey shows the relation of and distance of all substantial, visible buildings, sidewalks and other improvements to easements and setback lines; and (h) to the best of my knowledge, except as shown on this survey, neither the subject land nor any tract or parcel thereof serves any adjoining land for drainage, utilities, or ingress or egress.

EXHIBIT “I”

LEASING AND TENANT MATTERS

                 Borrower and Lenders agree as follows:

                    1. Approved Leases. Borrower shall not enter into any tenant lease of space in the Improvements unless satisfactory to or deemed satisfactory to Administrative Agent prior to execution. Borrower’s standard form of tenant lease, and any revisions thereto, must have the prior written approval of Administrative Agent. Any tenant lease shall be “deemed” satisfactory to Administrative Agent that (a) is on the standard form lease approved by Administrative Agent, with no deviations except as satisfactory to Administrative Agent; (b) is entered into in the ordinary course of business with a bona fide unrelated third party tenant, and Borrower, acting in good faith and exercising due diligence, has determined that the tenant is financially capable of performing its obligations under the lease; (c) is received by Administrative Agent (together with each guarantee thereof (if any) and financial information regarding the tenant and each guarantor (if any) received by Borrower) within fifteen (15) days after execution; (d) reflects an arms-length transaction at then current market rate for comparable space; (e) contains no right to purchase the Property, or any present or future interest therein; (f) does not cover in excess of 25% of the aggregate net rentable area of the Improvements; and (g) is expressly subordinate to the Mortgage. Borrower shall provide to Administrative Agent a correct and complete copy of each tenant lease, including any exhibits, and each guarantee thereof (if any), prior to execution unless the lease in question is reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent under the foregoing requirements. Borrower shall, throughout the term of this Agreement, pay all reasonable costs incurred by Administrative Agent in connection with Administrative Agent’s review and approval of tenant leases and each guarantee thereof (if any), including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs.

                    2. Effect of Lease Approval. No approval of any lease by Administrative Agent shall be for any purpose other than to protect Lenders’ security, and to preserve Lenders’ rights under the Loan Documents. No approval by Administrative Agent shall result in a waiver of any default of Borrower. In no event shall any approval by Administrative Agent of a lease be a representation of any kind, with regard to the lease or its adequacy or enforceability, or the financial capacity of any tenant or guarantor.

                    3. Representations Concerning Leases. Borrower represents and warrants to Administrative Agent and Lenders that Borrower has delivered to Administrative Agent a true and correct copy of all tenant leases and each guarantee thereof (if any), affecting any part of the Improvements, together with an accurate and complete rent roll for the Project, and no such lease or guarantee contains any option to purchase all or any portion of the Property or any interest therein or contains any right of first refusal relating to any sale of the Property or any portion thereof or interest therein.

                    4. Delivery of Leasing Information and Documents. Borrower shall promptly (a) deliver to Administrative Agent such quarterly rent rolls, leasing schedules and reports, operating statements, financial statements for tenants other than residential tenants with a


lease term for less than one year and other information regarding tenants and prospective tenants or other leasing information as Administrative Agent from time to time may request, and (b) obtain and deliver to Administrative Agent such estoppel certificates and subordination and attornment agreements executed by such tenants (and guarantors, if any) in the respective forms attached as exhibits to the Closing Checklist, or otherwise in such forms as Administrative Agent from time to time may reasonably require.

                    5. Income from the Property. Borrower shall first apply all income from leases, and all other income derived from the Property, to pay costs and expenses associated with the ownership, maintenance, development, operating, and marketing of the Land and Improvements, including all amounts then required to be paid under the Loan Documents, before using or applying such income for any other purpose.

                    6. Compliance and Default. As additional conditions to Lenders’ obligations under this Agreement, all tenants having the right to do so must approve all plans and all changes thereto, the construction of the Improvements, and all other aspects of the Project requiring tenants’ approval. A default by Borrower under or any failure by Borrower to satisfy any of the conditions of a lease shall constitute a Default under this Agreement. Borrower shall promptly notify Administrative Agent in writing of any failure by any party to perform any material obligation under any lease, any event or condition which would permit a tenant to terminate or cancel a lease, or any notice given by a tenant with respect to the foregoing, specifying in each case the action Borrower has taken or will take with respect thereto.

NOTE

 

 

$____________

____________, 20___

                    FOR VALUE RECEIVED, _________________________ (“Borrower”, whether one or more) hereby promises to pay to the order of [_________________________ (“Lender”) under that certain Loan Agreement (defined below) among Borrower,] Bank of America N.A., a national banking association and administrative agent (together with any and all of its successors and assigns, “Administrative Agent”) for the benefit of Lenders from time to time a party to that certain Loan Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) [dated ____________, 20__] of even date herewith, without offset, in immediately available funds in lawful money of the United States of America, at Administrative Agent’s Office as defined in the Loan Agreement, the principal sum of _________________________ DOLLARS ($____________) (or the unpaid balance of all principal advanced against this Note, if that amount is less), together with interest on the unpaid principal balance of this Note from day to day outstanding as hereinafter provided.

          1. Note; Interest; Payment Schedule and Maturity Date. This Note is one of the Notes referred to in Loan Agreement and is entitled to the benefits thereof. The entire principal balance of this Note then unpaid shall be due and payable at the times as set forth in the Loan Agreement. Accrued unpaid interest shall be due and payable at the times and at the interest rate as set forth in the Loan Agreement until all principal and accrued interest owing on this Note shall have been fully paid and satisfied. Any amount not paid when due and payable hereunder shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, bear interest and if applicable a late charge as set forth in the Loan Agreement.

          2. Security; Loan Documents. The security for this Note includes a Mortgage, Assignment of Leases and Rents and Security Agreement in the amount of $[____________] (which, as it may have been or may be amended, restated, modified or supplemented from time to time, is herein called the “Mortgage”) dated ____________, 20___ from Borrower to Administrative Agent covering certain property in Pelham Manor, Westchester County, New York described therein (the “Property”). This Note, the Mortgage, the Loan Agreement and all other documents now or hereafter securing, guaranteeing or executed in connection with the loan evidenced by this Note (the “Loan”), are, as the same have been or may be amended, restated, modified or supplemented from time to time, herein sometimes called individually a “Loan Document” and together the “Loan Documents”.

          3. Defaults.

                    (a) It shall be a default (“Default”) under this Note and each of the other Loan Documents if (i) any principal, interest or other amount of money due under this Note is not paid in full when due, regardless of how such amount may have become due; (ii) any covenant, agreement, condition, representation or warranty herein or in any other Loan Documents is not fully and timely performed, observed or kept; or (iii) there shall occur any default or event of default under the Mortgage or any other Loan Document. Upon the occurrence of a Default,


Administrative Agent on behalf of Lenders shall have the rights to declare the unpaid principal balance and accrued but unpaid interest on this Note, and all other amounts due hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, at once due and payable (and upon such declaration, the same shall be at once due and payable), to foreclose any liens and security interests securing payment hereof and to exercise any of its other rights, powers and remedies under this Note, under any other Loan Document, or at Law or in equity.

                    (b) All of the rights, remedies, powers and privileges (together, “Rights”) of Administrative Agent on behalf of Lenders provided for in this Note and in any other Loan Document are cumulative of each other and of any and all other Rights at Law or in equity. The resort to any Right shall not prevent the concurrent or subsequent employment of any other appropriate Right. No single or partial exercise of any Right shall exhaust it, or preclude any other or further exercise thereof, and every Right may be exercised at any time and from time to time. No failure by Administrative Agent or Lenders to exercise, nor delay in exercising any Right, including but not limited to the right to accelerate the maturity of this Note, shall be construed as a waiver of any Default or as a waiver of any Right. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing provisions, the acceptance by Lender from time to time of any payment under this Note which is past due or which is less than the payment in full of all amounts due and payable at the time of such payment, shall not (i) constitute a waiver of or impair or extinguish the right of Administrative Agent or Lenders to accelerate the maturity of this Note or to exercise any other Right at the time or at any subsequent time, or nullify any prior exercise of any such Right, or (ii) constitute a waiver of the requirement of punctual payment and performance or a novation in any respect.

                    (c) If any holder of this Note retains an attorney in connection with any Default or at maturity or to collect, enforce or defend this Note or any other Loan Document in any lawsuit or in any probate, reorganization, bankruptcy, arbitration or other proceeding, or if Borrower sues any holder in connection with this Note or any other Loan Document and does not prevail, then Borrower agrees to pay to each such holder, in addition to principal, interest and any other sums owing to Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, all costs and expenses incurred by such holder in trying to collect this Note or in any such suit or proceeding, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and expenses, investigation costs and all court costs, whether or not suit is filed hereon, whether before or after the Maturity Date, or whether in connection with bankruptcy, insolvency or appeal, or whether collection is made against Borrower or any guarantor or endorser or any other person primarily or secondarily liable hereunder.

          4. Heirs, Successors and Assigns. The terms of this Note and of the other Loan Documents shall bind and inure to the benefit of the heirs, devisees, representatives, successors and assigns of the parties. The foregoing sentence shall not be construed to permit Borrower to assign the Loan except as otherwise permitted under the Loan Documents. As further provided in the Loan Agreement, a Lender may, at any time, sell, transfer, or assign all or a portion of its interest in this Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents, as set forth in the Loan Agreement.

          5. General Provisions. Time is of the essence with respect to Borrower’s obligations under this Note. If more than one person or entity executes this Note as Borrower, all of said

2


parties shall be jointly and severally liable for payment of the indebtedness evidenced hereby. Borrower and all sureties, endorsers, guarantors and any other party now or hereafter liable for the payment of this Note in whole or in part, hereby severally (a) waive demand, presentment for payment, notice of dishonor and of nonpayment, protest, notice of protest, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of acceleration and all other notices (except any notices which are specifically required by this Note or any other Loan Document), filing of suit and diligence in collecting this Note or enforcing any of the security herefor; (b) agree to any substitution, subordination, exchange or release of any such security or the release of any party primarily or secondarily liable hereon; (c) agree that neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall be required first to institute suit or exhaust its remedies hereon against Borrower or others liable or to become liable hereon or to perfect or enforce its rights against them or any security herefor; (d) consent to any extensions or postponements of time of payment of this Note for any period or periods of time and to any partial payments, before or after maturity, and to any other indulgences with respect hereto, without notice thereof to any of them; and (e) submit (and waive all rights to object) to non-exclusive personal jurisdiction of any state or federal court sitting in the city and county, and venue in the city or county, in which payment is to be made as specified in the first paragraph of Page 1 of this Note, for the enforcement of any and all obligations under this Note and the Loan Documents; (f) waive the benefit of all homestead and similar exemptions as to this Note; (g) agree that their liability under this Note shall not be affected or impaired by any determination that any security interest or lien taken by Lender to secure this Note is invalid or unperfected; and (h) hereby subordinate any and all rights against Borrower and any of the security for the payment of this Note, whether by subrogation, agreement or otherwise, until this Note is paid in full. A determination that any provision of this Note is unenforceable or invalid shall not affect the enforceability or validity of any other provision and the determination that the application of any provision of this Note to any person or circumstance is illegal or unenforceable shall not affect the enforceability or validity of such provision as it may apply to other persons or circumstances. This Note may not be amended except in a writing specifically intended for such purpose and executed by the party against whom enforcement of the amendment is sought. Captions and headings in this Note are for convenience only and shall be disregarded in construing it. THIS NOTE, AND ITS VALIDITY, ENFORCEMENT AND INTERPRETATION, SHALL BE GOVERNED BY NEW YORK LAW (WITHOUT REGARD TO ANY CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES) AND APPLICABLE UNITED STATES FEDERAL LAW.

          6. Notices. Any notice, request, or demand to or upon Borrower or Lender shall be deemed to have been properly given or made when delivered in accordance with the Loan Agreement.

          7. No Usury. It is expressly stipulated and agreed to be the intent of Borrower, Administrative Agent and all Lenders at all times to comply with applicable state Law or applicable United States federal Law (to the extent that it permits a Lender to contract for, charge, take, reserve, or receive a greater amount of interest than under state Law) and that this Section shall control every other covenant and agreement in this Note and the other Loan Documents. If applicable state or federal Law should at any time be judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount called for under this Note or under any of the other Loan Documents, or contracted for, charged, taken, reserved, or received with respect to the Loan, or if Administrative Agent’s exercise of the option to accelerate the Maturity Date, or if any

3


prepayment by Borrower results in Borrower having paid any interest in excess of that permitted by applicable Law, then it is Administrative Agent’s and each Lender’s express intent that all excess amounts theretofore collected by Administrative Agent or any Lender shall be credited on the principal balance of this Note and all other indebtedness and the provisions of this Note and the other Loan Documents shall immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new documents, so as to comply with the applicable Law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder or thereunder. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Lenders for the use, forbearance, or detention of 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 lawful rate from time to time in effect and applicable to the Loan for so long as the Loan is outstanding.

                    THE LOAN DOCUMENTS REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES.

                    THERE ARE NO ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES.

It shall be a Default under this Agreement if any default (beyond any applicable notice or cure periods) occurs as defined under any Swap Contract as to which Borrower (or its Affiliate) is the Defaulting Party, or if any Termination Event occurs under any Swap Contract as to which Borrower (or its Affiliate) is an Affected Party. As used in this Section, the terms “Defaulting Party”, “Termination Event” and “Affected Party” have the meanings ascribed to them in the Swap Contract.

                    5. Remedies; Cure Rights. In addition to any and all other remedies to which Lender and Swap Counterparty are entitled at law or in equity, Swap Counterparty shall have the right, to the extent so provided in any Swap Contract or any Master Agreement relating thereto, (a) to declare an event of default, termination event or other similar event thereunder and to designate an Early Termination Date as defined under the Master Agreement, and (b) to determine net termination amounts in accordance with the Swap Contract and to setoff amounts between Swap Contracts. Lender shall have the right at any time (but shall have no obligation) to take in its name or in the name of Borrower (or its Affiliate) such action as Lender may at any time determine to be necessary or advisable to cure any default under any Swap Contract or to protect the rights of Borrower (or its Affiliate) or Swap Counterparty thereunder; provided, however, that before the occurrence of a Default under this Agreement, Lender shall give prior

i


written notice to Borrower before taking any such action. For this purpose, Borrower hereby constitutes Lender its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full power of substitution, which power of attorney is coupled with an interest and irrevocable, to exercise, at the election of Lender, any and all rights and remedies of Borrower (or its Affiliate) under the Swap Contract, including making any payments thereunder and consummating any transactions contemplated thereby, and to take any action that Lender may deem proper in order to collect, assert or enforce any claim, right or title, in and to the Swap Contract hereby assigned and conveyed, and generally to take any and all such action in relation thereto as Lender shall deem advisable. Lender shall not incur any liability if any action so taken by Lender or on its behalf shall prove to be inadequate or invalid. Borrower expressly understands and agrees that Lender is not hereby assuming any duties or obligations of Borrower (or its Affiliate) to make payments to Swap Counterparty under any Swap Contract or under any other Loan Document. Such payment duties and obligations remain the responsibility of Borrower (or its Affiliate) notwithstanding any language in this Agreement.

$2,446,298.11

December 1, 2010

               FOR VALUE RECEIVED, P/A-ACADIA PELHAM MANOR LLC (“Borrower”, whether one or more) hereby promises to pay to the order of Bank of America, N.A. (“Lender”) under that certain Loan Agreement (defined below) among Borrower, Bank of America N.A., a national banking association and administrative agent (together with any and all of its successors and assigns, “Administrative Agent”) for the benefit of Lenders from time to time a party to that certain Loan Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) dated of even date herewith, without offset, in immediately available funds in lawful money of the United States of America, at Administrative Agent’s Office as defined in the Loan Agreement, the principal sum of Two Million Four Hundred Forty-Six Thousand Two Hundred Ninety-Eight and 11/100 Dollars ($2,446,298.11) (or the unpaid balance of all principal advanced against this Note, if that amount is less), together with interest on the unpaid principal balance of this Note from day to day outstanding as hereinafter provided.

          1. Note; Interest; Payment Schedule and Maturity Date. This Note is one of the Notes referred to in Loan Agreement and is entitled to the benefits thereof. The entire principal balance of this Note then unpaid shall be due and payable at the times as set forth in the Loan Agreement. Accrued unpaid interest shall be due and payable at the times and at the interest rate as set forth in the Loan Agreement until all principal and accrued interest owing on this Note shall have been fully paid and satisfied. Any amount not paid when due and payable hereunder shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, bear interest and if applicable a late charge as set forth in the Loan Agreement.

          2. Security; Loan Documents. The security for this Note includes a Mortgage, Assignment of Leases and Rents and Security Agreement in the amount of $2,446,298.11 (which, as it may have been or may be amended, restated, modified or supplemented from time to time, is herein called the “Mortgage”) dated as of the date hereof from Borrower to Administrative Agent covering certain property in Pelham Manor, Westchester County, New York described therein (the “Property”). This Note, the Mortgage, the Loan Agreement and all other documents now or hereafter securing, guaranteeing or executed in connection with the loan evidenced by this Note (the “Loan”), are, as the same have been or may be amended, restated, modified or supplemented from time to time, herein sometimes called individually a “Loan Document” and together the “Loan Documents”.

          3. Defaults.

               (a) It shall be a default (“Default”) under this Note and each of the other Loan Documents if (i) any principal, interest or other amount of money due under this Note is not paid in full when due, regardless of how such amount may have become due; (ii) any covenant, agreement, condition, representation or warranty herein or in any other Loan Documents is not fully and timely performed, observed or kept; or (iii) there shall occur any default or event of default under the Mortgage or any other Loan Document. Upon the occurrence of a Default, Administrative Agent on behalf of Lenders shall have the rights to declare the unpaid principal


balance and accrued but unpaid interest on this Note, and all other amounts due hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, at once due and payable (and upon such declaration, the same shall be at once due and payable), to foreclose any liens and security interests securing payment hereof and to exercise any of its other rights, powers and remedies under this Note, under any other Loan Document, or at Law or in equity.

               (b) All of the rights, remedies, powers and privileges (together, “Rights”) of Administrative Agent on behalf of Lenders provided for in this Note and in any other Loan Document are cumulative of each other and of any and all other Rights at Law or in equity. The resort to any Right shall not prevent the concurrent or subsequent employment of any other appropriate Right. No single or partial exercise of any Right shall exhaust it, or preclude any other or further exercise thereof, and every Right may be exercised at any time and from time to time. No failure by Administrative Agent or Lenders to exercise, nor delay in exercising any Right, including but not limited to the right to accelerate the maturity of this Note, shall be construed as a waiver of any Default or as a waiver of any Right. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing provisions, the acceptance by Lender from time to time of any payment under this Note which is past due or which is less than the payment in full of all amounts due and payable at the time of such payment, shall not (i) constitute a waiver of or impair or extinguish the right of Administrative Agent or Lenders to accelerate the maturity of this Note or to exercise any other Right at the time or at any subsequent time, or nullify any prior exercise of any such Right, or (ii) constitute a waiver of the requirement of punctual payment and performance or a novation in any respect.

               (c) If any holder of this Note retains an attorney in connection with any Default or at maturity or to collect, enforce or defend this Note or any other Loan Document in any lawsuit or in any probate, reorganization, bankruptcy, arbitration or other proceeding, or if Borrower sues any holder in connection with this Note or any other Loan Document and does not prevail, then Borrower agrees to pay to each such holder, in addition to principal, interest and any other sums owing to Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, all costs and expenses incurred by such holder in trying to collect this Note or in any such suit or proceeding, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and expenses, investigation costs and all court costs, whether or not suit is filed hereon, whether before or after the Maturity Date, or whether in connection with bankruptcy, insolvency or appeal, or whether collection is made against Borrower or any guarantor or endorser or any other person primarily or secondarily liable hereunder.

          4. Heirs, Successors and Assigns. The terms of this Note and of the other Loan Documents shall bind and inure to the benefit of the heirs, devisees, representatives, successors and assigns of the parties. The foregoing sentence shall not be construed to permit Borrower to assign the Loan except as otherwise permitted under the Loan Documents. As further provided in the Loan Agreement, a Lender may, at any time, sell, transfer, or assign all or a portion of its interest in this Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents, as set forth in the Loan Agreement.

          5. General Provisions. Time is of the essence with respect to Borrower’s obligations under this Note. If more than one person or entity executes this Note as Borrower, all of said parties shall be jointly and severally liable for payment of the indebtedness evidenced hereby.

2


Borrower and all sureties, endorsers, guarantors and any other party now or hereafter liable for the payment of this Note in whole or in part, hereby severally (a) waive demand, presentment for payment, notice of dishonor and of nonpayment, protest, notice of protest, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of acceleration and all other notices (except any notices which are specifically required by this Note or any other Loan Document), filing of suit and diligence in collecting this Note or enforcing any of the security herefor; (b) agree to any substitution, subordination, exchange or release of any such security or the release of any party primarily or secondarily liable hereon; (c) agree that neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall be required first to institute suit or exhaust its remedies hereon against Borrower or others liable or to become liable hereon or to perfect or enforce its rights against them or any security herefor; (d) consent to any extensions or postponements of time of payment of this Note for any period or periods of time and to any partial payments, before or after maturity, and to any other indulgences with respect hereto, without notice thereof to any of them; and (e) submit (and waive all rights to object) to non-exclusive personal jurisdiction of any state or federal court sitting in the city and county, and venue in the city or county, in which payment is to be made as specified in the first paragraph of Page 1 of this Note, for the enforcement of any and all obligations under this Note and the Loan Documents; (f) waive the benefit of all homestead and similar exemptions as to this Note; (g) agree that their liability under this Note shall not be affected or impaired by any determination that any security interest or lien taken by Lender to secure this Note is invalid or unperfected; and (h) hereby subordinate any and all rights against Borrower and any of the security for the payment of this Note, whether by subrogation, agreement or otherwise, until this Note is paid in full. A determination that any provision of this Note is unenforceable or invalid shall not affect the enforceability or validity of any other provision and the determination that the application of any provision of this Note to any person or circumstance is illegal or unenforceable shall not affect the enforceability or validity of such provision as it may apply to other persons or circumstances. This Note may not be amended except in a writing specifically intended for such purpose and executed by the party against whom enforcement of the amendment is sought. Captions and headings in this Note are for convenience only and shall be disregarded in construing it. THIS NOTE, AND ITS VALIDITY, ENFORCEMENT AND INTERPRETATION, SHALL BE GOVERNED BY NEW YORK LAW (WITHOUT REGARD TO ANY CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES) AND APPLICABLE UNITED STATES FEDERAL LAW.

          6. Notices. Any notice, request, or demand to or upon Borrower or Lender shall be deemed to have been properly given or made when delivered in accordance with the Loan Agreement.

          7. No Usury. It is expressly stipulated and agreed to be the intent of Borrower, Administrative Agent and all Lenders at all times to comply with applicable state Law or applicable United States federal Law (to the extent that it permits a Lender to contract for, charge, take, reserve, or receive a greater amount of interest than under state Law) and that this Section shall control every other covenant and agreement in this Note and the other Loan Documents. If applicable state or federal Law should at any time be judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount called for under this Note or under any of the other Loan Documents, or contracted for, charged, taken, reserved, or received with respect to the Loan, or if Administrative Agent’s exercise of the option to accelerate the Maturity Date, or if any prepayment by Borrower results in Borrower having paid any interest in excess of that permitted

3


by applicable Law, then it is Administrative Agent’s and each Lender’s express intent that all excess amounts theretofore collected by Administrative Agent or any Lender shall be credited on the principal balance of this Note and all other indebtedness and the provisions of this Note and the other Loan Documents shall immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new documents, so as to comply with the applicable Law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder or thereunder. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Lenders for the use, forbearance, or detention of 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 lawful rate from time to time in effect and applicable to the Loan for so long as the Loan is outstanding.

               THE LOAN DOCUMENTS REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES.

THERE ARE NO ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES.

ARTICLE 2

Representations, Warranties and Covenants

          Section 2.1. Mortgagor represents, warrants, and covenants as follows:

               (a) Payment and Performance. Mortgagor will make due and punctual payment of the Secured Indebtedness. Mortgagor will timely and properly perform and comply with all of the covenants, agreements, and conditions imposed upon it by this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents and will not permit a default to occur hereunder or thereunder. Time shall be of the essence in this Mortgage.

               (b) Title and Permitted Encumbrances. Mortgagor has, in Mortgagor’s own right, and Mortgagor covenants to maintain, lawful, good and marketable title to the Property, is lawfully seized and possessed of the Property and every part thereof, and has the right to convey the same, free and clear of all liens, charges, claims, security interests, and encumbrances except for (i) the matters, if any, set forth under the heading “Permitted Encumbrances” in Exhibit B hereto,

5


which are Permitted Encumbrances only to the extent the same are valid and subsisting and affect the Property, (ii) the liens and security interests evidenced by this Mortgage, (iii) statutory liens for real estate taxes and assessments on the Property which are not yet delinquent, and (iv) other liens and security interests (if any) in favor of Mortgagee (the matters described in the foregoing clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) being herein called the “Permitted Encumbrances”). Mortgagor owns and holds the Fee Parcel in fee simple absolute. Mortgagor is the owner of a valid and subsisting interest as tenant under the Ground Lease, that the Ground Lease is in full force and effect, there are no defaults thereunder and no event has occurred or is occurring which after notice or passage of time or both will result in such a default, that the Ground Lease is subject to no lien, charge or encumbrance of any kind and is prior to all liens, charges and encumbrances whatsoever on the fee interest of the lessor thereunder except such as are listed as exceptions to title in the title policy insuring the lien hereof. Mortgagor, and Mortgagor’s successors and assigns, will warrant generally and forever defend title to the Property, subject as aforesaid, to Mortgagee and his successors or substitutes and assigns, against the claims and demands of all persons claiming or to claim the same or any part thereof. Mortgagor will preserve the leasehold estate created in it by the Ground Lease, and will forever warrant and defend the same to Mortgagee and will forever warrant and defend the validity and priority of the lien hereof against the claims of all persons and parties whomsoever. Mortgagor will perform or cause to be performed all of the covenants and conditions required to be performed by it under the Ground Lease, will do all things necessary to preserve unimpaired its rights thereunder, and will not enter into any agreement modifying or amending the Ground Lease or releasing the lessor thereunder from any obligations imposed upon it thereby. If Mortgagor receives a notice of default under the Ground Lease, it shall immediately cause a copy of such notice to be sent by registered United States mail to Mortgagee. Mortgagor will punctually pay, perform, observe and keep all covenants, obligations and conditions in or pursuant to any Permitted Encumbrance and will not modify or permit modification of any Permitted Encumbrance without the prior written consent of Mortgagee. Inclusion of any matter as a Permitted Encumbrance does not constitute approval or waiver by Mortgagee of any existing or future violation or other breach thereof by Mortgagor, by the Property or otherwise. No part of the Property constitutes all or any part of the principal residence of Mortgagor if Mortgagor is an individual. If any right or interest of Mortgagee in the Property or any part thereof shall be endangered or questioned or shall be attacked directly or indirectly, Mortgagee and Mortgagee, or either of them (whether or not named as parties to legal proceedings with respect thereto), are hereby authorized and empowered to take such steps as in their discretion may be proper for the defense of any such legal proceedings or the protection of such right or interest of Mortgagee, including but not limited to the employment of independent counsel, the prosecution or defense of litigation, and the compromise or discharge of adverse claims. All expenditures so made of every kind and character shall be a demand obligation (which obligation Mortgagor hereby promises to pay) owing by Mortgagor to Mortgagee or Mortgagee (as the case may be), and the party (Mortgagee or Mortgagee, as the case may be) making such expenditures shall be subrogated to all rights of the person receiving such payment.

               (c) Taxes and Other Impositions/Condominium Charges. Mortgagor will pay, or cause to be paid, all taxes, assessments and other charges or levies imposed upon or against or with respect to the Property or the ownership, use, occupancy or enjoyment of any portion thereof, or any utility service thereto, as the same become due and payable, including but not limited to all real estate taxes assessed against the Property or any part thereof, and shall deliver

6


promptly to Mortgagee such evidence of the payment thereof as Mortgagee may require. Any lien for Condominium Assessments, whenever accruing, shall, pursuant to the Declaration, be subordinate to the lien of this Mortgage.

               (d) Insurance. Mortgagor shall obtain and maintain at Mortgagor’s sole expense: (1) mortgagee title insurance issued to Mortgagee covering the Premises as required by Mortgagee, without exception for mechanics’ liens; (2) property insurance with respect to all insurable Property, against loss or damage by fire, lightning, windstorm, explosion, hail, tornado and such additional hazards as are presently included in “Special Form” (also known as “all-risk”) coverage and against any and all acts of terrorism and such other insurable hazards as Mortgagee may require, in an amount not less than 100% of the full replacement cost, including the cost of debris removal, without deduction for depreciation and sufficient to prevent Mortgagor and Mortgagee from becoming a coinsurer, such insurance to be in “builder’s risk” completed value (non-reporting) form during and with respect to any construction (other than construction of customary tenant improvements in existing buildings) on the Premises; (3) if and to the extent any portion of the Improvements is, under the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973 (“FDPA”), as it may be amended from time to time, in a Special Flood Hazard Area, within a Flood Zone designated A or V in a participating community, a flood insurance policy in an amount required by Mortgagee, but in no event less than the amount sufficient to meet the requirements of applicable law and the FDPA, as such requirements may from time to time be in effect; (4) general liability insurance, on an “occurrence” basis, against claims for “personal injury” liability, including bodily injury, death or property damage liability, for the benefit of Mortgagor as named insured and Mortgagee as additional insured; (5) statutory workers’ compensation insurance with respect to any work on or about the Premises (including employer’s liability insurance, if required by Mortgagee), covering all employees of Mortgagor and any contractor; (6) if there is a general contractor, during and with respect to any construction (other than construction of customary tenant improvements in existing buildings) on the Premises, commercial general liability insurance, including products and completed operations coverage, and in other respects similar to that described in clause (4) above, for the benefit of the general contractor as named insured and Mortgagor and Mortgagee as additional insureds, in addition to statutory workers’ compensation insurance with respect to any work on or about the Premises (including employer’s liability insurance, if required by Mortgagee), covering all employees of the general contractor any contractor; and (7) such other insurance on the Property and endorsements as may from time to time be required by Mortgagee (including but not limited to soft cost coverage, automobile liability insurance, business interruption insurance or delayed rental insurance, boiler and machinery insurance, earthquake insurance, wind insurance, sinkhole coverage, and/or permit to occupy endorsement) and against other insurable hazards or casualties which at the time are commonly insured against in the case of premises similarly situated, due regard being given to the height, type, construction, location, use and occupancy of buildings and improvements. All insurance policies shall be issued and maintained by insurers, in amounts, with deductibles, limits and retentions, and in forms satisfactory to Mortgagee, and shall require not less than ten (10) days’ prior written notice to Mortgagee of any cancellation for nonpayment of premiums, and not less than thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Mortgagee of any other cancellation or any change of coverage. All insurance companies must be licensed to do business in the state in which the Property is located and must have an A.M. Best Company financial and performance ratings of A-:IX or better. All insurance policies maintained, or caused to be maintained, by Mortgagor with respect to the Property, except for general liability

7


insurance, shall provide that each such policy shall be primary without right of contribution from any other insurance that may be carried by Mortgagor or Mortgagee and that all of the provisions thereof, except the limits of liability, shall operate in the same manner as if there were a separate policy covering each insured. If any insurer which has issued a policy of title, hazard, liability or other insurance required pursuant to this Mortgage or any other Loan Document becomes insolvent or the subject of any petition, case, proceeding or other action pursuant to any Debtor Relief Law, or if in Mortgagee’s reasonable opinion the financial responsibility of such insurer is or becomes inadequate, Mortgagor shall, in each instance promptly upon its discovery thereof or upon the request of Mortgagee therefor, and at Mortgagor’s expense, promptly obtain and deliver to Mortgagee a like policy (or, if and to the extent permitted by Mortgagee, acceptable evidence of insurance) issued by another insurer, which insurer and policy meet the requirements of this Mortgage or such other Loan Document, as the case may be. Without limiting the discretion of Mortgagee with respect to required endorsements to insurance policies, all such policies for loss of or damage to the Property shall contain a standard mortgagee clause (without contribution) naming Mortgagee as mortgagee with loss proceeds payable to Mortgagee notwithstanding (i) any act, failure to act or negligence of or violation of any warranty, declaration or condition contained in any such policy by any named or additional insured; (ii) the occupation or use of the Property for purposes more hazardous than permitted by the terms of any such policy; (iii) any foreclosure or other action by Mortgagee under the Loan Documents; or (iv) any change in title to or ownership of the Property or any portion thereof, such proceeds to be held for application as provided in the Loan Documents. The originals of each initial insurance policy (or to the extent permitted by Mortgagee, a copy of the original policy and such evidence of insurance acceptable to Mortgagee) shall be delivered to Mortgagee at the time of execution of this Mortgage, with all premiums fully paid current, and each renewal or substitute policy (or evidence of insurance) shall be delivered to Mortgagee, with all premiums fully paid current, at least ten (10) days before the termination of the policy it renews or replaces. Mortgagor shall pay all premiums on policies required hereunder as they become due and payable and promptly deliver to Mortgagee evidence satisfactory to Mortgagee of the timely payment thereof. If any loss occurs at any time when Mortgagor has failed to perform Mortgagor’s covenants and agreements in this paragraph with respect to any insurance payable because of loss sustained to any part of the Property whether or not such insurance is required by Mortgagee, Mortgagee shall nevertheless be entitled to the benefit of all insurance covering the loss and held by or for Mortgagor, to the same extent as if it had been made payable to Mortgagee. Upon any foreclosure hereof or transfer of title to the Property in extinguishment of the whole or any part of the Secured Indebtedness, all of Mortgagor’s right, title and interest in and to the insurance policies referred to in this Section (including unearned premiums) and all proceeds payable thereunder shall thereupon vest in the purchaser at foreclosure or other such transferee, to the extent permissible under such policies. Mortgagee shall have the right (but not the obligation) to make proof of loss for, settle and adjust any claim under, and receive the proceeds of, all insurance for loss of or damage to the Property where the loss is estimated by Mortgagee to be $1,000,000 or more, regardless of whether or not such insurance policies are required by Mortgagee, and the expenses incurred by Mortgagee in the adjustment and collection of insurance proceeds shall be a part of the Secured Indebtedness and shall be due and payable to Mortgagee on demand. Mortgagee shall not be, under any circumstances, liable or responsible for failure to collect or exercise diligence in the collection of any of such proceeds or for the obtaining, maintaining or adequacy of any insurance or for failure to see to the proper application

8


of any amount paid over to Mortgagor. Any such proceeds received by Mortgagee shall, after deduction therefrom of all reasonable expenses actually incurred by Mortgagee, including attorneys’ fees, at Mortgagee’s option be (1) released to Mortgagor, or (2) applied (upon compliance with such terms and conditions as may be required by Mortgagee) to repair or restoration, either partly or entirely, of the Property so damaged, or (3) applied to the payment of the Secured Indebtedness in such order and manner as Mortgagee, in its sole discretion, may elect, whether or not due. In any event, the unpaid portion of the Secured Indebtedness shall remain in full force and effect and the payment thereof shall not be excused. Mortgagor shall at all times comply with the requirements of the insurance policies required hereunder and of the issuers of such policies and of any board of fire underwriters or similar body as applicable to or affecting the Property.

               (e) Application of Insurance Proceeds. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in the preceding Section 2.1(d), if the Property is damaged or destroyed and Mortgagee determines that all of the conditions specified hereinafter in this Section have been satisfied, then Mortgagee shall apply the proceeds of insurance (i) first to reimbursing itself for all costs incurred by it in the collection of such proceeds and (ii) second to reimbursing Mortgagor for such actual costs as shall have been incurred by Mortgagor in restoring the Property and shall be approved by Mortgagee. Insurance proceeds shall be applied to such restoration solely if (A) Mortgagee determines that: (i) the Property is capable of being suitably restored in accordance with applicable Legal Requirements to the value, condition, character and general utility existing prior to such damage or destruction, and, in any event, to a Loan to Value Ratio of not greater than 70%, provided that this clause (i) shall not apply to insurance proceeds relating to a casualty for which the gross insurance proceeds do not exceed $1,000,000; (ii) sufficient funds are unconditionally available (from proceeds of insurance and/or from funds of Mortgagor) to enable Mortgagor promptly to commence, and thereafter diligently to prosecute to completion, such restoration, provided that this clause (ii) shall not apply to insurance proceeds relating to a casualty for which the gross insurance proceeds do not exceed $1,000,000; (iii) Mortgagor is not in default or in breach of any obligations under any Loan Document, no uncured Default exists under any Loan Document and no facts or circumstances exist that would constitute a Default with the passage of time or the giving of notice or both; and (iv) neither the validity, enforceability nor priority of the lien of this Mortgage shall be adversely affected; (B) Mortgagor has entered into a written agreement, satisfactory in form and substance to Mortgagee, containing such conditions to disbursements as are employed at the time by Mortgagee for construction loans; (C) Mortgagor has delivered to Mortgagee such security as Mortgagee might have reasonably required to assure completion of restoration in accordance with the standards specified above; and (D) Mortgagor has complied with such further reasonable requirements as Mortgagee might have specified.

               (f) Reserve for Insurance, Taxes and Assessments. Upon request of Mortgagee, to secure the payment and performance of the Secured Indebtedness, but not in lieu of such payment and performance, Mortgagor will deposit with Mortgagee a sum equal to real estate taxes, assessments and charges (which charges for the purposes of this paragraph shall include without limitation any recurring charge which could result in a lien against the Property) against the Property for the current year and the premiums for such policies of insurance for the current year, all as estimated by Mortgagee and prorated to the end of the calendar month following the month during which Mortgagee’s request is made, and thereafter will deposit with Mortgagee, on

9


each date when an installment of principal and/or interest is due on the Note, sufficient funds (as estimated from time to time by Mortgagee) to permit Mortgagee to pay at least fifteen (15) days prior to the due date thereof, the next maturing real estate taxes, assessments and charges and premiums for such policies of insurance. Mortgagee shall have the right to rely upon tax information furnished by applicable taxing authorities in the payment of such taxes or assessments and shall have no obligation to make any protest of any such taxes or assessments. Any excess over the amounts required for such purposes shall be held by Mortgagee for future use, applied to any Secured Indebtedness or refunded to Mortgagor, at Mortgagee’s option, and any deficiency in such funds so deposited shall be made up by Mortgagor upon demand of Mortgagee. All such funds so deposited shall bear no interest, may be commingled with the general funds of Mortgagee and shall be applied by Mortgagee toward the payment of such taxes, assessments, charges and premiums when statements therefor are presented to Mortgagee by Mortgagor (which statements shall be presented by Mortgagor to Mortgagee a reasonable time before the applicable amount is due); provided, however, that, if a Default shall have occurred hereunder, such funds may at Mortgagee’s option be applied to the payment of the Secured Indebtedness in the order determined by Mortgagee in its sole discretion, and that Mortgagee may (but shall have no obligation) at any time, in its discretion, apply all or any part of such funds toward the payment of any such taxes, assessments, charges or premiums which are past due, together with any penalties or late charges with respect thereto. The conveyance or transfer of Mortgagor’s interest in the Property for any reason (including without limitation the foreclosure of a subordinate lien or security interest or a transfer by operation of law) shall constitute an assignment or transfer of Mortgagor’s interest in and rights to such funds held by Mortgagee under this paragraph but subject to the rights of Mortgagee hereunder.

               (g) Condemnation. Mortgagor shall notify Mortgagee immediately of any threatened or pending proceeding for condemnation affecting the Property or arising out of damage to the Property, and Mortgagor shall, at Mortgagor’s expense, diligently prosecute any such proceedings. Mortgagee shall have the right (but not the obligation) to participate in any such proceeding and to be represented by counsel of its own choice. Mortgagee shall be entitled to receive all sums which may be awarded or become payable to Mortgagor for the condemnation of the Property, or any part thereof, for public or quasi-public use, or by virtue of private sale in lieu thereof, and any sums which may be awarded or become payable to Mortgagor for injury or damage to the Property. Mortgagor shall, promptly upon request of Mortgagee, execute such additional assignments and other documents as may be necessary from time to time to permit such participation and to enable Mortgagee to collect and receipt for any such sums. All such sums are hereby assigned to Mortgagee, and shall, after deduction therefrom of all reasonable expenses actually incurred by Mortgagee, including attorneys’ fees, at Mortgagee’s option be (1) released to Mortgagor, or (2) applied (upon compliance with such terms and conditions as may be required by Mortgagee) to repair or restoration of the Property so affected, or (3) applied to the payment of the Secured Indebtedness in such order and manner as Mortgagee, in its sole discretion, may elect, whether or not due. In any event the unpaid portion of the Secured Indebtedness shall remain in full force and effect and the payment thereof shall not be excused. Mortgagee shall not be, under any circumstances, liable or responsible for failure to collect or to exercise diligence in the collection of any such sum or for failure to see to the proper application of any amount paid over to Mortgagor. Mortgagee is hereby authorized, in the name of Mortgagor, to execute and deliver valid acquittances for, and to appeal from, any such award, judgment or decree. All costs and expenses (including but not limited to attorneys’ fees) incurred

10


by Mortgagee in connection with any condemnation shall be a demand obligation owing by Mortgagor (which Mortgagor hereby promises to pay) to Mortgagee pursuant to this Mortgage.

               (h) Compliance with Legal Requirements. The Property and the use, operation and maintenance thereof and all activities thereon do and shall at all times comply with all applicable Legal Requirements (hereinafter defined). The Property is not, and shall not be, dependent on any other property or premises or any interest therein other than the Property to fulfill any requirement of any Legal Requirement. Mortgagor shall not, by act or omission, permit any building or other improvement not subject to the lien of this Mortgage to rely on the Property or any interest therein to fulfill any requirement of any Legal Requirement. No improvement upon or use of any part of the Property constitutes a nonconforming use under any zoning law or similar law or ordinance. Mortgagor has obtained and shall preserve in force all requisite zoning, utility, building, health, environmental and operating permits from the governmental authorities having jurisdiction over the Property.

          If Mortgagor receives a notice or claim from any person that the Property, or any use, activity, operation or maintenance thereof or thereon, is not in compliance with any Legal Requirement, Mortgagor will promptly furnish a copy of such notice or claim to Mortgagee. Mortgagor has received no notice and has no knowledge of any such noncompliance. As used in this Mortgage: (i) the term “Legal Requirement” means any Law (hereinafter defined), agreement, covenant, restriction, easement or condition (including, without limitation of the foregoing, any condition or requirement imposed by any insurance or surety company), as any of the same now exists or may be changed or amended or come into effect in the future; and (ii) the term “Law” means any federal, state or local law, statute, ordinance, code, rule, regulation, license, permit, authorization, decision, order, injunction or decree, domestic or foreign.

               (i) Maintenance, Repair and Restoration. Mortgagor will keep the Property in first class order, repair, operating condition and appearance, causing all necessary repairs, renewals, replacements, additions and improvements to be promptly made, and will not allow any of the Property to be misused, abused or wasted or to deteriorate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Mortgagor will not, without the prior written consent of Mortgagee, (i) remove from the Property any fixtures or personal property covered by this Mortgage except such as is replaced by Mortgagor by an article of equal suitability and value, owned by Mortgagor, free and clear of any lien or security interest (except that created by this Mortgage), or (ii) make any structural alteration to the Property or any other alteration thereto which impairs the value thereof. If any act or occurrence of any kind or nature (including any condemnation or any casualty for which insurance was not obtained or obtainable) shall result in damage to or loss or destruction of the Property, Mortgagor shall give prompt notice thereof to Mortgagee and Mortgagor shall promptly, at Mortgagor’s sole cost and expense and regardless of whether insurance or condemnation proceeds (if any) shall be available or sufficient for the purpose, secure the Property as necessary and commence and continue diligently to completion to restore, repair, replace and rebuild the Property as nearly as possible to its value, condition and character immediately prior to the damage, loss or destruction.

               (j) No Other Liens. Mortgagor will not, without the prior written consent of Mortgagee, create, place or permit to be created or placed, or through any act or failure to act, acquiesce in the placing of, or allow to remain, any mortgage, voluntary or involuntary lien,

11


whether statutory, constitutional or contractual, security interest, encumbrance or charge, or conditional sale or other title retention document, against or covering the Property, or any part thereof, other than the Permitted Encumbrances, regardless of whether the same are expressly or otherwise subordinate to the lien or security interest created in this Mortgage, and should any of the foregoing become attached hereafter in any manner to any part of the Property without the prior written consent of Mortgagee, Mortgagor will cause the same to be promptly discharged and released. Mortgagor will own all parts of the Property and will not acquire any fixtures, equipment or other property (including software embedded therein) forming a part of the Property pursuant to a lease, license, security agreement or similar agreement, whereby any party has or may obtain the right to repossess or remove same, without the prior written consent of Mortgagee. If Mortgagee consents to the voluntary grant by Mortgagor of any mortgage, lien, security interest, or other encumbrance (hereinafter called “Subordinate Lien”) covering any of the Property or if the foregoing prohibition is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable as to a Subordinate Lien, any such Subordinate Lien shall contain express covenants to the effect that: (1) the Subordinate Lien is unconditionally subordinate to this Mortgage and all Leases (hereinafter defined); (2) if any action (whether judicial or pursuant to a power of sale) shall be instituted to foreclose or otherwise enforce the Subordinate Lien, no tenant of any of the Leases (hereinafter defined) shall be named as a party defendant, and no action shall be taken that would terminate any occupancy or tenancy without the prior written consent of Mortgagee; (3) Rents (hereinafter defined), if collected by or for Mortgagee of the Subordinate Lien, shall be applied first to the payment of the Secured Indebtedness then due and expenses incurred in the ownership, operation and maintenance of the Property in such order as Mortgagee may determine, prior to being applied to any indebtedness secured by the Subordinate Lien; (4) written notice of default under the Subordinate Lien and written notice of the commencement of any action (whether judicial or pursuant to a power of sale) to foreclose or otherwise enforce the Subordinate Lien or to seek the appointment of a receiver for all or any part of the Property shall be given to Mortgagee with or immediately after the occurrence of any such default or commencement; and (5) neither Mortgagee of the Subordinate Lien, nor any purchaser at foreclosure thereunder, nor anyone claiming by, through or under any of them shall succeed to any of Mortgagor’s rights hereunder without the prior written consent of Mortgagee.

               (k) Operation of Property. Mortgagor will operate the Property in a good and workmanlike manner and in accordance with all Legal Requirements and will pay all fees or charges of any kind in connection therewith. Mortgagor will keep the Property occupied so as not to impair the insurance carried thereon. Mortgagor will not use or occupy or conduct any activity on, or allow the use or occupancy of or the conduct of any activity on, the Property in any manner which violates any Legal Requirement or which constitutes a public or private nuisance or which makes void, voidable or cancelable, or increases the premium of, any insurance then in force with respect thereto. Mortgagor will not initiate or permit any zoning reclassification of the Property or seek any variance under existing zoning ordinances applicable to the Property or use or permit the use of the Property in such a manner which would result in such use becoming a nonconforming use under applicable zoning ordinances or other Legal Requirement. Mortgagor will not impose any easement, restrictive covenant or encumbrance upon the Property, execute or file any subdivision plat or condominium declaration affecting the Property or consent to the annexation of the Property to any municipality, without the prior written consent of Mortgagee. Mortgagor will not do or suffer to be done any act whereby the value of any part of the Property may be lessened. Mortgagor will preserve, protect, renew,

12


extend and retain all material rights and privileges granted for or applicable to the Property. Without the prior written consent of Mortgagee, there shall be no drilling or exploration for or extraction, removal or production of any mineral, hydrocarbon, gas, natural element, compound or substance (including sand and gravel) from the surface or subsurface of the Land regardless of the depth thereof or the method of mining or extraction thereof. Mortgagor will cause all debts and liabilities of any character (including without limitation all debts and liabilities for labor, material and equipment (including software embedded therein) and all debts and charges for utilities servicing the Property) incurred in the construction, maintenance, operation and development of the Property to be promptly paid.

               (l) Financial Matters. Mortgagor is solvent after giving effect to all borrowings contemplated by the Loan Documents and no proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law (hereinafter defined) is pending (or, to Mortgagor’s knowledge, threatened) by or against Mortgagor, or any affiliate of Mortgagor, as a debtor. All reports, statements, plans, budgets, applications, agreements and other data and information heretofore furnished or hereafter to be furnished by or on behalf of Mortgagor to Mortgagee in connection with the loan or loans evidenced by the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, all financial statements and financial information) are and will be true, correct and complete in all material respects as of their respective dates and do not and will not omit to state any fact or circumstance necessary to make the statements contained therein not misleading. No material adverse change has occurred since the dates of such reports, statements and other data in the financial condition of Mortgagor or, to Mortgagor’s knowledge, of any tenant under any lease described therein. For the purposes of this paragraph, “Mortgagor” shall also include any person liable directly or indirectly for the Secured Indebtedness or any part thereof and any joint venturer or general partner of Mortgagor.

               (m) Status of Mortgagor; Suits and Claims; Loan Documents. If Mortgagor is a corporation, partnership, limited liability company, or other legal entity, Mortgagor is and will continue to be (i) duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its state of organization, (ii) authorized to do business in, and in good standing in, each state in which the Property is located, and (iii) possessed of all requisite power and authority to carry on its business and to own and operate the Property. Each Loan Document executed by Mortgagor has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by Mortgagor, and the obligations thereunder and the performance thereof by Mortgagor in accordance with their terms are and will continue to be within Mortgagor’s power and authority (without the necessity of joinder or consent of any other person), are not and will not be in contravention of any Legal Requirement or any other document or agreement to which Mortgagor or the Property is subject, and do not and will not result in the creation of any encumbrance against any assets or properties of Mortgagor, or any other person liable, directly or indirectly, for any of the Secured Indebtedness, except as expressly contemplated by the Loan Documents. There is no suit, action, claim, investigation, inquiry, proceeding or demand pending (or, to Mortgagor’s knowledge, threatened) against Mortgagor (other than the lawsuit commenced by The Omni Health & Fitness Complex of Pelham, Inc., et al. in the Westchester County Supreme Court under index no. 24678/2008) or against any other person liable directly or indirectly for the Secured Indebtedness or which affects the Property (including, without limitation, any which challenges or otherwise pertains to Mortgagor’s title to the Property) or the validity, enforceability or priority of any of the Loan Documents. There is no judicial or administrative action, suit or proceeding pending (or, to Mortgagor’s knowledge, threatened) against Mortgagor, or against any other person liable

13


directly or indirectly for the Secured Indebtedness, except as has been disclosed in writing to Mortgagee in connection with the loan evidenced by the Note. The Loan Documents constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of Mortgagor enforceable in accordance with their terms, except as the enforceability thereof may be limited by Debtor Relief Laws (hereinafter defined) and except as the availability of certain remedies may be limited by general principles of equity. Mortgagor is not a “foreign person” within the meaning of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, Sections 1445 and 7701 (i.e. Mortgagor is not a non-resident alien, foreign corporation, foreign partnership, foreign trust or foreign estate as those terms are defined therein and in any regulations promulgated thereunder). The loan evidenced by the Note is solely for business and/or investment purposes, and is not intended for personal, family, household or agricultural purposes. Mortgagor further warrants that the proceeds of the Note shall be used for commercial purposes and stipulates that the loan evidenced by the Note shall be construed for all purposes as a commercial loan. Mortgagor’s exact legal name is correctly set forth at the end of this Mortgage. If Mortgagor is not an individual, Mortgagor is an organization of the type and (if not an unregistered entity) is incorporated in or organized under the laws of the state specified in the introductory paragraph of this Mortgage. If Mortgagor is an unregistered entity (including, without limitation, a general partnership) it is organized under the laws of the state specified in the introductory paragraph of this Mortgage. Mortgagor will not cause or permit any change to be made in its name, identity (including its trade name or names), or corporate or partnership structure, unless Mortgagor shall have notified Mortgagee in writing of such change at least thirty (30) days prior to the effective date of such change, and shall have first taken all action required by Mortgagee for the purpose of further perfecting or protecting the lien and security interest of Mortgagee in the Property. In addition, Mortgagor shall not change its corporate or partnership structure without first obtaining the prior written consent of Mortgagee. Mortgagor’s principal place of business and chief executive office, and the place where Mortgagor keeps its books and records, including recorded data of any kind or nature, regardless of the medium of recording including, without limitation, software, writings, plans, specifications and schematics concerning the Property, has for the preceding four months (or, if less, the entire period of the existence of Mortgagor) been and will continue to be (unless Mortgagor notifies Mortgagee of any change in writing at least thirty (30) days prior to the date of such change) the address of Mortgagor set forth at the end of this Mortgage. If Mortgagor is an individual, Mortgagor’s principal residence has for the preceding four months been and will continue to be (unless Mortgagor notifies Mortgagee of any change in writing at least thirty (30) days prior to the date of such change) the address of the principal residence of Mortgagor set forth at the end of this Mortgage. Mortgagor’s organizational identification number, if any, assigned by the state of incorporation or organization is correctly set forth on the first page of this Mortgage. Mortgagor shall promptly notify Mortgagee (i) of any change of its organizational identification number, or (ii) if Mortgagor does not now have an organization identification number and later obtains one, of such organizational identification number.

               (n) Certain Environmental Matters. Mortgagor shall comply with the terms and covenants of that certain Environmental Indemnity Agreement dated of even date herewith (the “Environmental Agreement”).

14


deliver, procure and record and/or file such further documents (including, without limitation, further mortgages of trust, security agreements, and assignments of rents or leases) and do such further acts as may be necessary, desirable or proper to carry out more effectively the purposes of this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents, to more fully identify and subject to the liens and security interests hereof any property intended to be covered hereby (including specifically, but without limitation, any renewals, additions, substitutions, replacements, or appurtenances to the Property) or as deemed advisable by Mortgagee to protect the lien or the security interest hereunder against the rights or interests of third persons; and (iii) provide such certificates, documents, reports, information, affidavits and other instruments and do such further acts as may be necessary, desirable or proper in the reasonable determination of Mortgagee to enable Mortgagee to comply with the requirements or requests of any agency having jurisdiction over Mortgagee or any examiners of such agencies with respect to the indebtedness secured hereby, Mortgagor or the Property. Mortgagor shall pay all costs connected with any of the foregoing, which shall be a demand obligation owing by Mortgagor (which Mortgagor hereby promises to pay) to Mortgagee pursuant to this Mortgage.

               (p) Fees and Expenses. Without limitation of any other provision of this Mortgage or of any other Loan Document and to the extent not prohibited by applicable law, Mortgagor will pay, and will reimburse to Mortgagee and/or Mortgagee on demand to the extent paid by Mortgagee and/or Mortgagee: (i) all appraisal fees, filing, registration and recording fees, recordation, transfer and other taxes, brokerage fees and commissions, abstract fees, title search or examination fees, title policy and endorsement premiums and fees, uniform commercial code search fees, judgment and tax lien search fees, escrow fees, reasonable attorneys’ fees, reasonable architect fees, reasonable engineer fees, reasonable construction consultant fees, reasonable environmental inspection fees, survey fees, and all other reasonable costs and expenses of every character incurred by Mortgagor or Mortgagee and/or Mortgagee in connection with the preparation of the Loan Documents, the evaluation, closing and funding of the loan evidenced by the Loan Documents, and any and all amendments and supplements to this Mortgage, the Note or any other Loan Documents or any approval, consent, waiver, release or other matter requested or required hereunder or thereunder, or otherwise attributable or chargeable to Mortgagor as owner of the Property; and (ii) all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, incurred or expended in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy, or the defense of any right or remedy or the enforcement of any obligation of Mortgagor, hereunder or under any other Loan Document.

          (ii) As used herein, the term “Indemnified Matters” means any and all claims, demands, liabilities (including strict liability), losses, damages (including consequential damages), causes of action, judgments, penalties, fines, costs and expenses (including without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of attorneys and other professional consultants and experts, and of the investigation and defense of any claim, whether or not such claim is ultimately defeated, and the settlement of any claim or judgment including all value paid or given in settlement) of every kind, known or unknown, foreseeable or unforeseeable, which may be imposed upon, asserted against or incurred or paid by Mortgagee at any time and from time to time, whenever imposed, asserted or incurred, because of, resulting from, in connection with, or arising out of any transaction, act, omission, event or circumstance in any way connected with the Property or with this Mortgage or any other Loan Document, including but not limited to any bodily injury or death or property damage occurring in or upon or in the vicinity of the Property through any cause whatsoever at any time on or before the Release Date (hereinafter defined), any act performed or omitted to be performed hereunder or under any other Loan Document, any breach by Mortgagor of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or condition contained in this Mortgage or in any other Loan Document, any default as defined herein, any claim under or with respect to any Lease (hereinafter defined) or arising under the Environmental Agreement. The term “Release Date” as used herein means the earlier of the following two dates: (i) the date on which the indebtedness and obligations secured hereby have been paid and performed in full and this Mortgage has been released, or (ii) the date on which the lien of this Mortgage is fully and finally foreclosed or a conveyance by deed in lieu of such foreclosure is fully and finally effective, and possession of the Property has been given to the purchaser or grantee free of occupancy and claims to occupancy by Mortgagor and Mortgagor’s heirs, devisees, representatives, successors and assigns; provided, that if such payment, performance, release, foreclosure or conveyance is challenged, in bankruptcy proceedings or otherwise, the Release Date shall be deemed not to have occurred until such challenge is rejected, dismissed or withdrawn with prejudice.

          Section 2.2. Performance by Mortgagee on Mortgagor’s Behalf. Mortgagor agrees that, if Mortgagor fails to perform any act or to take any action which under any Loan Document Mortgagor is required to perform or take, or to pay any money which under any Loan Document Mortgagor is required to pay, and whether or not the failure then constitutes a default hereunder or thereunder, and whether or not there has occurred any default or defaults hereunder or the Secured Indebtedness has been accelerated, Mortgagee, in Mortgagor’s name or its own name, may, but shall not be obligated to, perform or cause to be performed such act or take such action or pay such money, and any expenses so incurred by Mortgagee, with interest thereon at the Default Rate set forth in the Note, and any money so paid by Mortgagee shall be a demand obligation owing by Mortgagor to Mortgagee (which obligation Mortgagor hereby promises to pay), shall be a part of the indebtedness secured hereby, and Mortgagee, upon making such payment, shall be subrogated to all of the rights of the person, entity or body politic receiving such payment. Mortgagee and its designees shall have the right to enter upon the Property at any time and from time to time for any such purposes. No such payment or performance by Mortgagee shall waive or cure any default or waive any right, remedy or recourse of Mortgagee. Any such payment may be made by Mortgagee in reliance on any statement, invoice or claim without inquiry into the validity or accuracy thereof. Each amount due and owing by Mortgagor to Mortgagee pursuant to this Mortgage shall bear interest, from the date such amount becomes due until paid, at the rate per annum provided in the Note for interest on past due principal owed on the Note but never in excess of the maximum nonusurious amount permitted by applicable law, which interest shall be payable to Mortgagee on demand; and all such amounts, together with such interest thereon, shall automatically and without notice be a part of the indebtedness secured hereby. The amount and nature of any expense by Mortgagee hereunder and the time when paid shall be fully established by the certificate of Mortgagee or any of Mortgagee’s officers or agents.

18


          Section 2.3. Absence of Obligations of Mortgagee with Respect to Property. Notwithstanding anything in this Mortgage to the contrary, including, without limitation, the definition of “Property” and/or the provisions of Article 3 hereof, (i) to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Property is composed of Mortgagor’s rights, title and interests therein but not Mortgagor’s obligations, duties or liabilities pertaining thereto, (ii) Mortgagee neither assumes nor shall have any obligations, duties or liabilities in connection with any portion of the items described in the definition of “Property” herein, either prior to or after obtaining title to such Property, whether by foreclosure sale, the granting of a deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise, and (iii) Mortgagee may, at any time prior to or after the acquisition of title to any portion of the Property as above described, advise any party in writing as to the extent of Mortgagee’s interest therein and/or expressly disaffirm in writing any rights, interests, obligations, duties and/or liabilities with respect to such Property or matters related thereto. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that Mortgagee shall have no obligations, duties or liabilities prior to or after acquisition of title to any portion of the Property, as lessee under any lease or purchaser or seller under any contract or option unless Mortgagee elects otherwise by written notification.

          Section 2.4. Authorization to File Financing Statements; Power of Attorney.

To the extent permitted by law, Mortgagor hereby ratifies all acts said attorney-in-fact shall lawfully do, have done in the past or cause to be done in the future by virtue hereof. This power of attorney is a power coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable.

Mortgagor shall not, without the prior consent of Mortgagee, surrender the leasehold estate created by the Ground Lease or terminate or cancel the Ground Lease or, without the prior written consent of Mortgagee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, modify, change, supplement, alter or amend the Ground Lease,

in any respect, either orally or in writing, and Mortgagor hereby assigns to Mortgagee, as further security for the payment of the Secured Indebtedness and for the performance and observance of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Mortgage and the Loan Agreement, all of the rights, privileges and prerogatives of Mortgagor, which rights, privileges and prerogatives may be exercised by Mortgagee upon a Default, as tenant under the Ground Lease, to surrender the leasehold estate created by the Ground Lease or to terminate, cancel, modify, change, supplement, alter or amend the Ground Lease, which consent, in the case of a change, supplement, modification, alteration or amendment, shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and any such surrender of the leasehold estate created by the Ground Lease or termination, cancellation, modification, change, supplement, alteration or amendment of the Ground Lease without the prior consent of Mortgagee shall be void and of no force and effect. If Mortgagor shall default in the performance or observance of any term, covenant or condition of the Ground Lease on the part of Mortgagor, as tenant thereunder, to be performed or observed, and such default shall remain uncured after the expiration of any applicable cure or grace period, then, without limiting the generality of the other provisions of this Mortgage and the Loan Agreement, and without waiving or releasing Mortgagor from any of its obligations hereunder or thereunder, Mortgagee shall have the right, but shall be under no obligation, to pay any sums and to perform any act or take any action as may be appropriate to cause all of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Ground Lease on the part of Mortgagor, as tenant thereunder, to be performed or observed or to be promptly performed or observed on behalf of Mortgagor, to the end that the rights of Mortgagor in, to and under the Ground Lease shall be kept unimpaired and free from default. If Mortgagee shall make any payment or perform any act or take action in accordance with the preceding sentence, Mortgagee will notify Mortgagor of the making of any such payment, the performance of any such act, or the taking of any such action. In any such event, subject to the rights of tenants, subtenants and other occupants under the Leases, Mortgagee and any person designated by Mortgagee shall have, and are hereby granted, the right to enter upon the Property at any time and from time to time after such default by Mortgagor, which remains uncured after the expiration of any applicable cure or grace period, for the purpose of taking any such action. Mortgagee may pay and expend such sums of money as Mortgagee deems reasonably necessary for any such purpose and upon so doing shall be subrogated to any and all rights of the Ground Lessor. Mortgagor hereby agrees to pay to Mortgagee immediately upon demand therefor, all such sums so paid and expended by Mortgagee, together with interest thereon from the day of such demand at the Default Rate. All sums so paid and expended by Mortgagee and the interest thereon shall be secured by the legal operation and effect of this Mortgage. If the Ground Lessor shall deliver to Mortgagee a copy of any notice of default sent by said Ground Lessor to Mortgagor, as tenant under the Ground Lease, such notice shall constitute full protection to Mortgagee for any action taken or omitted to be taken by Mortgagee, in good faith, in reliance thereon. Mortgagor will not subordinate or consent to the subordination of the Ground Lease to any mortgage, security deed, lease or other interest on or in the Ground Lessor’s interest in all or any part of the Property, unless, in each such case, the written consent of Mortgagee shall have been first had and obtained..

          Section 2.6. No Merger of Fee and Leasehold Estates. So long as any portion of the Secured Indebtedness shall remain unpaid, unless Mortgagee shall otherwise consent, the fee title to the Ground Lease Parcels and the leasehold estate therein created pursuant to the provisions of the Ground Lease shall not merge but shall always be kept separate and distinct, notwithstanding the union of such estates in Mortgagor, Mortgagee, or in any other person by purchase, operation

20


of law or otherwise. Mortgagee reserves the right, at any time, to release portions of the Property, including, but not limited to, all of any part of the leasehold estate created by the Ground Lease, with or without consideration, at Mortgagee’s election, without waiving or affecting any of its rights hereunder or under the Note or the other Loan Documents and any such release shall not affect Mortgagee’s rights in connection with the portion of the Property not so released.

          Section 2.7. Mortgagor’s Acquisition of Fee Estate. In the event that Mortgagor, so long as any portion of the Secured Indebtedness remains unpaid, shall be the owner and holder of the fee title to all or any portion of the Ground Lease Parcels, the lien of the Mortgage shall be spread to cover Mortgagor’s fee title to such of the Ground Lease Parcels and said fee title shall be deemed to be included in the Property without any further action. Mortgagor agrees, at its sole cost and expense, including without limitation Mortgagee’s reasonable attorneys’ fees, to (a) execute any and all documents or instruments necessary to subject its fee title to the Property to the lien of this Mortgage; and (b) provide a title insurance policy which shall insure that the lien of the Mortgage is a first lien on Mortgagor’s fee title to the Property. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Ground Lease is for any reason whatsoever terminated prior to the natural expiration of its term, and if, pursuant to any provisions of the Ground Lease or otherwise, Mortgagee or its designee shall acquire from the Ground Lessor thereunder another lease of the Property, Mortgagor shall have no right, title or interest in or to such other lease or the leasehold estate created thereby.

          Section 2.8. Rejection of the Ground Lease.

               (a) If the Ground Lease is terminated for any reason in the event of the rejection or disaffirmance of the Ground Lease pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code, or any other law affecting creditor’s rights, (i) Mortgagor, immediately after obtaining notice thereof, shall give notice thereto to Mortgagee, (ii) Mortgagor, without the prior written consent of Mortgagee, shall not elect to treat the Ground Lease as terminated pursuant to Section 365(h) of the Bankruptcy Code or any comparable federal or state statute or law, and any election by Mortgagor made without such consent shall be void and (iii) this Mortgage and the Loan Agreement and all the liens, terms, covenants and conditions of this Mortgage and the Loan Agreement hereby extends to and covers Mortgagor’s possessory rights under Section 365(h) of the Bankruptcy Code and to any claim for damages due to the rejection of the Ground Lease or other termination of the Ground Lease. In addition, Mortgagor hereby assigns irrevocably to Mortgagee Mortgagor’s rights to treat the Ground Lease as terminated pursuant to Section 365(h) of the Bankruptcy Code and to offset rents under such Ground Lease in the event any case, proceeding or other action is commenced by or against the Ground Lessor under the Bankruptcy Code or any comparable federal” or state statute or law.

               (b) Mortgagor hereby assigns to Mortgagee (i) Mortgagor’s right to reject the Ground Lease under Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code or any comparable federal or state statute or law with respect to any case, proceeding or other action commenced by or against Mortgagor under the Bankruptcy Code or comparable federal or state statute or law and (ii) Mortgagor’s right to seek an extension of the sixty (60)-day period within which Mortgagor must accept or reject the Ground Lease under Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code or any comparable federal or state statute or law with respect to any case, proceeding or other action commenced by or against

21


Mortgagor under the Bankruptcy Code or comparable federal or state statute or law. Further, if the foregoing assignment is not effective under applicable law and Mortgagor shall desire to so reject the Ground Lease, at Mortgagee’s request, Mortgagor shall assign its interest in the Ground Lease to Mortgagee in lieu of rejecting the Ground Lease, upon receipt by Mortgagor of notice from Mortgagee of such request together with Mortgagee’s agreement to cure any existing defaults of Mortgagor under the Ground Lease.

               (c) Mortgagor hereby agrees that if the Ground Lease is terminated for any reason in the event of the rejection or disaffirmance of the Ground Lease pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code or any other law affecting creditor’s rights, any property not removed by Mortgagor as permitted or required by the Ground Lease, shall at the option of Mortgagee be deemed abandoned by Mortgagor, provided that Mortgagee may remove any such property required to be removed by Mortgagor pursuant to the Ground Lease and all costs and expenses associated with such removal shall be paid by Mortgagor within five (5) days of receipt by Mortgagor of an invoice for such removal costs and expenses.

ARTICLE 3

Assignment of Rents and Leases

          Section 3.1. Assignment. Mortgagor hereby assigns to Mortgagee all Rents (hereinafter defined) and all of Mortgagor’s rights in and under all Leases (hereinafter defined). So long as no Default (hereinafter defined) has occurred, Mortgagor shall have a license (which license shall terminate automatically and without further notice upon the occurrence of a Default) to collect, but not prior to accrual, the Rents under the Leases and, where applicable, subleases, such Rents to be held in trust for Mortgagee, and to otherwise deal with all Leases as permitted by this Mortgage. Each month, provided no Default has occurred, Mortgagor may retain such Rents as were collected that month and held in trust for Mortgagee; provided, however, that all Rents collected by Mortgagor shall be applied solely to the ordinary and necessary expenses of owning and operating the Property or paid to Mortgagee. Upon the revocation of such license, all Rents shall be paid directly to Mortgagee and not through Mortgagor, all without the necessity of any further action by Mortgagee, including, without limitation, any action to obtain possession of the Land, Improvements or any other portion of the Property or any action for the appointment of a receiver. Mortgagor hereby authorizes and directs the tenants under the Leases to pay Rents to Mortgagee upon written demand by Mortgagee, without further consent of Mortgagor, without any obligation of such tenants to determine whether a Default has in fact occurred and regardless of whether Mortgagee has taken possession of any portion of the Property, and the tenants may rely upon any written statement delivered by Mortgagee to the tenants. Any such payments to Mortgagee shall constitute payments to Mortgagor under the Leases, and Mortgagor hereby irrevocably appoints Mortgagee as its attorney-in-fact to do all things, after a Default, which Mortgagor might otherwise do with respect to the Property and the Leases thereon, including, without limitation, (i) collecting Rents with or without suit and applying the same, less expenses of collection, to any of the obligations secured hereunder or to expenses of operating and maintaining the Property (including reasonable reserves for anticipated expenses), at the option of Mortgagee, all in such manner as may be determined by Mortgagee, or at the option of Mortgagee, holding the same as security for

22


the payment of the Secured Indebtedness, (ii) leasing, in the name of Mortgagor, the whole or any part of the Property which may become vacant, and (iii) employing agents therefor and paying such agents reasonable compensation for their services. The curing of such Default, unless other Defaults also then exist, shall entitle Mortgagor to recover its aforesaid license to do any such things which Mortgagor might otherwise do with respect to the Property and the Leases thereon and to again collect such Rents. The powers and rights granted in this paragraph shall be in addition to the other remedies herein provided for upon the occurrence of a Default and may be exercised independently of or concurrently with any of said remedies. Nothing in the foregoing shall be construed to impose any obligation upon Mortgagee to exercise any power or right granted in this paragraph or to assume any liability under any Lease of any part of the Property and no liability shall attach to Mortgagee for failure or inability to collect any Rents under any such Lease. The assignment contained in this Section shall become null and void upon the release of this Mortgage. As used herein: (i) “Lease” means each existing or future lease, sublease (to the extent of Mortgagor’s rights thereunder) or other agreement under the terms of which any person has or acquires any right to occupy or use the Property, or any part thereof, or interest therein, and each existing or future guaranty of payment or performance thereunder, and all extensions, renewals, modifications and replacements of each such lease, sublease, agreement or guaranty; and (ii) “Rents” means all of the rents, revenue, income, profits and proceeds derived and to be derived from the Property or arising from the use or enjoyment of any portion thereof or from any Lease, including but not limited to the proceeds from any negotiated lease termination or buyout of such Lease, liquidated damages following default under any such Lease, all proceeds payable under any policy of insurance covering loss of rents resulting from untenantability caused by damage to any part of the Property, all of Mortgagor’s rights to recover monetary amounts from any tenant in bankruptcy including, without limitation, rights of recovery for use and occupancy and damage claims arising out of Lease defaults, including rejections, under any applicable Debtor Relief Law (hereinafter defined), together with any sums of money that may now or at any time hereafter be or become due and payable to Mortgagor by virtue of any and all royalties, overriding royalties, bonuses, delay rentals and any other amount of any kind or character arising under any and all present and all future oil, gas, mineral and mining leases covering the Property or any part thereof, and all proceeds and other amounts paid or owing to Mortgagor under or pursuant to any and all contracts and bonds relating to the construction or renovation of the Property.

               Section 3.2. Covenants, Representations and Warranties Concerning Leases and Rents. Mortgagor covenants, represents and warrants that: (a) Mortgagor has good title to, and is the owner of the entire landlord’s interest in, the Leases and Rents hereby assigned and authority to assign them; (b) all Leases are valid and enforceable, and in full force and effect, and are unmodified except as stated therein; (c) neither Mortgagor nor any tenant in the Property is in default under its Lease (and no event has occurred which with the passage of time or notice or both would result in a default under its Lease) or is the subject of any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding; (d) unless otherwise stated in a Permitted Encumbrance, no Rents or Leases have been or will be assigned, mortgaged, pledged or otherwise encumbered and no other person has or will acquire any right, title or interest in such Rents or Leases; (e) no Rents have been waived, released, discounted, set off or compromised; (f) except as stated in the Leases, Mortgagor has not received any funds or deposits from any tenant for which credit has not already been made on account of accrued Rents; (g) Mortgagor shall perform all of its obligations under the Leases and enforce the tenants’ obligations under the Leases to the extent

23


enforcement is prudent under the circumstances; (h) Mortgagor will not without the prior written consent of Mortgagee, enter into any Lease after the date hereof except in accordance with the terms of Exhibit I to the Loan Agreement, or waive, release, discount, set off, compromise, reduce or defer any Rent, receive or collect Rents more than one (1) month in advance, grant any rent-free period to any tenant (except in accordance with the terms of Exhibit I to the Loan Agreement), reduce any Lease term or waive, release or otherwise modify any other material obligation under any Lease, renew or extend any Lease except in accordance with the terms of Exhibit I to the Loan Agreement or in accordance with a right of the tenant thereto in such Lease, approve or consent to an assignment of a Lease or a subletting of any part of the premises covered by a Lease (except with respect to leases of 5,000 square feet of rentable space or less), or settle or compromise any claim against a tenant under a Lease in bankruptcy or otherwise (except with respect to leases of 5,000 square feet of rentable space or less); (i) Mortgagor will not, without the prior written consent of Mortgagee, terminate or consent to the cancellation or surrender of any Lease having an unexpired term of one (1) year or more unless promptly after the cancellation or surrender a new Lease of such premises is made with a new tenant having a credit standing that is satisfactory to Mortgagee, in Mortgagee’s judgment, on terms not materially less favorable to lessor than the terms of the terminated or cancelled Lease; (j) Mortgagor will not execute any Lease except in accordance with the Loan Documents and for actual occupancy by the tenant thereunder; (k) Mortgagor shall give prompt notice to Mortgagee, as soon as Mortgagor first obtains notice, of any claim, or the commencement of any action, by any tenant or subtenant under or with respect to a Lease regarding any claimed damage, default, diminution of or offset against Rent, cancellation of the Lease, or constructive eviction, excluding, however, notices of default under residential Leases, and Mortgagor shall defend, at Mortgagor’s expense, any proceeding pertaining to any Lease, including, if Mortgagee so requests, any such proceeding to which Mortgagee is a party; (l) Mortgagor shall as often as requested by Mortgagee, within ten (10) days of each request, deliver to Mortgagee a complete rent roll of the Property in such detail as Mortgagee may require and financial statements of the tenants, subtenants and guarantors under the Leases to the extent available to Mortgagor, and deliver to such of the tenants and others obligated under the Leases specified by Mortgagee written notice of the assignment in Section 3.1 hereof in form and content satisfactory to Mortgagee; (m) promptly upon request by Mortgagee, Mortgagor shall deliver to Mortgagee executed originals of all Leases and copies of all records in its possession or control relating thereto; (n) there shall be no merger of the leasehold estates, created by the Leases, with the fee estate of the Land without the prior written consent of Mortgagee; and (o) Mortgagee may at any time and from time to time by specific written instrument intended for the purpose, unilaterally subordinate the lien of this Mortgage to any Lease, without joinder or consent of, or notice to, Mortgagor, any tenant or any other person, and notice is hereby given to each tenant under a Lease of such right to subordinate. No such subordination shall constitute a subordination to any lien or other encumbrance, whenever arising, or improve the right of any junior lien Mortgagee; and nothing herein shall be construed as subordinating this Mortgage to any Lease.

          Section 3.3. Estoppel Certificates. All Leases executed after the date hereof shall require the tenant to execute and deliver to Mortgagee an estoppel certificate in form and substance acceptable to Mortgagee not more than thirty (30) days after notice from Mortgagee.

          Section 3.4. No Liability of Mortgagee. Mortgagee’s acceptance of this assignment shall not be deemed to constitute Mortgagee a “mortgagee in possession,” nor obligate

24


Mortgagee to appear in or defend any proceeding relating to any Lease or to the Property, or to take any action hereunder, expend any money, incur any expenses, or perform any obligation or liability under any Lease, or assume any obligation for any deposit delivered to Mortgagor by any tenant and not as such delivered to and accepted by Mortgagee. Mortgagee shall not be liable for any injury or damage to person or property in or about the Property, or for Mortgagee’s failure to collect or to exercise diligence in collecting Rents, but shall be accountable only for Rents that it shall actually receive. Neither the assignment of Leases and Rents nor enforcement of Mortgagee’s rights regarding Leases and Rents (including collection of Rents) nor possession of the Property by Mortgagee nor Mortgagee’s consent to or approval of any Lease (nor all of the same), shall render Mortgagee liable on any obligation under or with respect to any Lease or constitute affirmation of, or any subordination to, any Lease, occupancy, use or option.

          If Mortgagee seeks or obtains any judicial relief regarding Rents or Leases, the same shall in no way prevent the concurrent or subsequent employment of any other appropriate rights or remedies nor shall same constitute an election of judicial relief for any foreclosure or any other purpose. Mortgagee neither has nor assumes any obligations as lessor or landlord with respect to any Lease. The rights of Mortgagee under this Article 3 shall be cumulative of all other rights of Mortgagee under the Loan Documents or otherwise.

          Reference is hereby made to Section 291-f of the Real Property Law of the State of New York for the purpose of obtaining for Mortgagee the benefits of said Section in connection herewith.

If any provision of this Mortgage or any other Loan Document provides for Mortgagee to give to Mortgagor any notice regarding a default or incipient default, then if Mortgagee shall fail to give such notice to Mortgagor as provided, the sole and exclusive remedy of Mortgagor for such failure shall be to seek appropriate equitable relief to enforce the agreement to give such notice and to have any acceleration of the maturity of the Note and the Secured Indebtedness postponed or revoked and foreclosure proceedings in connection therewith delayed or terminated pending or upon the curing of such default in the manner and during the period of time permitted by such agreement, if any, and Mortgagor shall have no right to damages or any other type of relief not herein specifically set out against Mortgagee, all of which damages or other relief are hereby waived by Mortgagor. Nothing herein or in any other Loan Document shall operate or be construed to add on or make cumulative any cure or grace periods specified in any of the Loan Documents.

ARTICLE 5

Remedies

          Section 5.1. Certain Remedies. If a Default shall occur, Mortgagee may (but shall have no obligation to) exercise any one or more of the following remedies, without notice (unless notice is required by applicable statute):

               (a) Acceleration. Mortgagee may at any time and from time to time declare any or all of the Secured Indebtedness immediately due and payable and may terminate any and all Swap Transactions. Upon any such declaration, such Secured Indebtedness shall thereupon be immediately due and payable, and such Swap Transactions shall immediately terminate, without presentment, demand, protest, notice of protest, notice of acceleration or of intention to accelerate or any other notice or declaration of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by Mortgagor. Without limitation of the foregoing, upon the occurrence of a default described in clauses (A), (C) or (D) of subparagraph (i) of paragraph (d) of Section 4.1, hereof, all of the Secured Indebtedness shall thereupon be immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest, notice of protest, declaration or notice of acceleration or intention to accelerate, or any other notice, declaration or act of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by Mortgagor.

               (b) Enforcement of Assignment of Rents. In addition to the rights of Mortgagee under Article 3 hereof, prior or subsequent to taking possession of any portion of the Property or taking any action with respect to such possession, Mortgagee may: (1) collect and/or sue for the Rents in Mortgagee’s own name, give receipts and releases therefor, and after deducting all expenses of collection, including attorneys’ fees and expenses, apply the net proceeds thereof to the Secured Indebtedness in such manner and order as Mortgagee may elect and/or to the operation and management of the Property, including the payment of management, brokerage and attorney’s fees and expenses; and (2) require Mortgagor to transfer all security deposits and records thereof to Mortgagee together with original counterparts of the Leases.

30


               (c) Mortgagee’s Right to Enter and Take Possession, Operate and Apply Income.

 

 

 

          (i) Mortgagee may demand that Mortgagor surrender the actual possession of the Property and upon such demand, Mortgagor shall forthwith surrender same to Mortgagee and, to the extent permitted by law, Mortgagee itself, or by such officers or agents as it may appoint, may enter and take possession of all of the Property and may exclude Mortgagor and its agents and employees wholly therefrom.

 

 

 

          (ii) If Mortgagor shall for any reason fail to surrender or deliver the Property or any part thereof after Mortgagee’s demand, Mortgagee may obtain a judgment or order conferring on Mortgagee the right to immediate possession or requiring Mortgagor to deliver immediate possession to Mortgagee, to the entry of which judgment or decree Mortgagor hereby specifically consents.

 

 

 

          (iii) Mortgagee may from time to time: (A) continue and complete construction of, hold, store, use, operate, manage and control the Property and conduct the business thereof; (B) make all reasonably necessary maintenance, repairs, renewals, replacements, additions, betterments and improvements thereto and thereon and purchase or otherwise acquire additional personal property; (C) insure or keep the Property insured; (D) exercise all the rights and powers of Mortgagor in its name or otherwise with respect to the same; and (E) enter into agreements with others (including, without limitation, new Leases or amendments, extensions, or cancellations to existing Leases) all as Mortgagee from time to time may determine in its sole discretion. Mortgagor hereby constitutes and irrevocably appoints Mortgagee its true and lawful attorney-in-fact, which appointment is coupled with an interest, with full power of substitution, and empowers said attorney or attorneys in the name of Mortgagor, but at the option of said attorney-in-fact, to do any and all acts and execute any and all agreements that Mortgagee may deem necessary or proper to implement and perform any and all of the foregoing.

               (d) Uniform Commercial Code. Mortgagee may exercise any or all of its rights and remedies under the Uniform Commercial Code as adopted by the State of New York as in effect from time to time, (or under the Uniform Commercial Code in force from time to time in any other state to the extent the same is applicable law) or other applicable law as well as all other rights and remedies possessed by Mortgagee, all of which shall be cumulative. Mortgagee is hereby authorized and empowered to enter the Property or other place where the collateral may be located without legal process, and to take possession of such personal property without notice or demand, which hereby are waived to the maximum extent permitted by the laws of the State of New York. Upon demand by Mortgagee, Mortgagor shall make such personal property available to Mortgagee at a place reasonably convenient to Mortgagee. Mortgagee may proceed under the Uniform Commercial Code as to all or any part of such personal property, and in conjunction therewith may exercise all of the rights, remedies and powers of a secured creditor under the Uniform Commercial Code. Any notification required by the Uniform Commercial Code shall be deemed reasonably and properly given if sent in accordance with the Notice provisions of this Mortgage at least ten (10) days before any sale or other disposition of such personal property. Mortgagee may choose to dispose of some or all of the property, in any combination consisting of both personal property and Property, in one or more public or private sales to be held in accordance with the Law and procedures applicable to real property, as

31


permitted by Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code. Mortgagor agrees that such a sale of such personal property together with Property constitutes a commercially reasonable sale of such personal property.

               (e) Lawsuits. Mortgagee may proceed by a suit or suits in equity or at law, whether for collection of the indebtedness secured hereby, the specific performance of any covenant or agreement herein contained or in aid of the execution of any power herein granted, or for any foreclosure hereunder or for the sale of the Property under the judgment or decree of any court or courts of competent jurisdiction. Mortgagor hereby assents to the passage of a decree for the sale of the Property by any equity court having jurisdiction.

               (f) Foreclosure. Mortgagee may:

 

 

 

          (1) sell the Mortgaged Property to the extent permitted and pursuant to the procedures provided by law (including, without limitation, in accordance with Article 14 of the New York Real Property Actions and Proceedings Law, regarding which Mortgagor hereby consents and agrees that notices thereunder (including notices of sale) may be given to Mortgagor in any of the manners specified for the giving of notices set forth in Section 6.13, and all estate, right, title and interest, claim and demand thereof, at one (1) or more sales as an entity or in parcels or parts, and at such time and place upon such terms and after such notice thereof as may be required or permitted by law; or

 

 

 

          (2) institute proceedings for the complete or partial foreclosure hereof; or

 

 

 

          (3) take such steps to protect and enforce its rights whether by action, suit or proceeding in equity or at law for the specific performance of any covenant, condition or agreement in the Note, the Loan Agreement or herein, or in aid of the execution of any power herein granted, or for any foreclosure hereunder, or for the enforcement of any other appropriate legal or equitable remedy or otherwise as Mortgagee shall elect.

          Any sale made hereunder may be as an entirety or in such parcels as Mortgagee may request. To the extent permitted by applicable law, any sale may be adjourned by announcement at the time and place appointed for such sale without further notice except as may be required by law. If the proceeds of such sale of less than the whole of the Property shall be less than the aggregate of the Secured Indebtedness, this Mortgage and the lien hereof shall remain in full force and effect as to the unsold portion of the Property just as though no sale had been made and the rights of Mortgagee to foreclose hereunder shall also apply to any future sales. A sale may cover not only the Property but also personal property and other interests which are a part of the Property, or any part thereof, as a unit and as a part of a single sale, or the sale may be of any part of the Property separately from the remainder of the Property. After each sale, Mortgagee shall make to the purchaser or purchasers at such sale good and sufficient conveyances, conveying the property so sold to the purchaser or purchasers in fee simple, subject to the Permitted Encumbrances (and to such leases and other matters, if any), and shall receive the proceeds of said sale or sales and apply the same as herein provided. In the event any sale hereunder is not completed or is defective in the opinion of Mortgagee, such sale shall not exhaust the rights hereunder and Mortgagee shall have the right to cause a subsequent sale or sales to be made hereunder. Any and all statements of fact or other recitals made in any deed or

32


deeds or other conveyances given by Mortgagee as to nonpayment of the Secured Indebtedness or as to the occurrence of any default, or as to Mortgagee’s having declared all of said indebtedness to be due and payable, or as to the request to sell, or as to notice of time, place and terms of sale and the properties to be sold having been duly given, or as to any other act or thing having been duly done by Mortgagee shall be taken as prima facie evidence of the truth of the facts so stated and recited.

               (g) Receiver. Mortgagee may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction to have a receiver appointed to enter upon and take possession of the Property, collect the Rents therefrom and apply the same as the court may direct, such receiver to have all of the rights and powers permitted under the laws of the State of New York. To the extent permitted by law, the right of the appointment of such receiver shall be a matter of strict right without regard to the value or the occupancy of the Property or the solvency or insolvency of Mortgagor. The expenses, including receiver’s fees, attorneys’ fees, costs and agent’s commission incurred pursuant to the powers herein contained, together with interest thereon at the default rate under the Note, shall be secured hereby and shall be due and payable by Mortgagor immediately without notice or demand. Notwithstanding the appointment of any receiver or other custodian, Mortgagee shall be entitled as pledgee to the possession and control of any cash or deposits at the time held by, payable, or deliverable under the terms of this Mortgage to Mortgagee, and Mortgagee shall have the right to offset the unpaid Secured Indebtedness against any such cash or deposits in such order as Mortgagee may elect.

               (h) Termination of Commitment to Lend. Mortgagee may terminate any commitment or obligation to lend or disburse funds under any Loan Document or enter into any other credit arrangement to or for the benefit of Mortgagor.

               (i) Other Rights and Remedies. Mortgagee may exercise any and all other rights and remedies which Mortgagee may have under the Loan Documents, or at law or in equity or otherwise.

          Section 5.2. Application of Proceeds. Unless otherwise provided by applicable Law, all proceeds from the sale of the Property or any part thereof pursuant to the rights and remedies set forth in this Article 5 and any other proceeds received by Mortgagee from the exercise of any of its other rights and remedies hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall be applied first to pay all Expenses and next in reduction of the other Secured Indebtedness, in such manner and order as Mortgagee may elect.

          Section 5.3. Remedies Cumulative and Concurrent. No right, power or remedy of Mortgagee as provided in the Note, this Mortgage, or the other Loan Documents is intended to be exclusive of any other right, power, or remedy of Mortgagee, but each and every such right, power and remedy shall be cumulative and concurrent and in addition to any other right, power or remedy available to Mortgagee now or hereafter existing at law or in equity and may be pursued separately, successively or together against Mortgagor, or any endorser, co-maker, surety or guarantor of the Secured Indebtedness, or the Property or any part thereof, or any one or more of them, at the sole discretion of Mortgagee. The failure of Mortgagee to exercise any such right, power or remedy shall in no event be construed as a waiver or release thereof.

33


          Section 5.4. Waiver, Delay or Omission. No waiver of any Default hereunder shall extend to or affect any subsequent or any other Default then existing, or impair any rights, powers or remedies consequent thereon, and no delay or omission of Mortgagee to exercise any right, power or remedy shall be construed to waive any such Default or to constitute acquiescence therein.

          Section 5.5. Credit of Mortgagee. To the maximum extent permitted by the laws of the State of New York, upon any sale made under or by virtue of this Article, Mortgagee may bid for and acquire the Property, or any part thereof, and in lieu of paying cash therefor may apply to the purchase price, any portion of or all of the unpaid Secured Indebtedness in such order as Mortgagee may elect.

          Section 5.6. Sale. Any sale or sales made under or by virtue of this Article shall operate to divest all the estate, right, title, interest, claim and demand whatsoever at law or in equity, of Mortgagor and all persons, except tenants pursuant to Leases approved by Mortgagee, claiming by, through or under Mortgagor in and to the properties and rights so sold, whether sold to Mortgagee or to others.

          Section 5.7. Proofs of Claim. In the case of any receivership, insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition, seizure of the Property by any Governmental Authority, or other judicial proceedings affecting Mortgagor, any endorser, co-maker, surety, or guarantor of the Secured Indebtedness, or any of their respective properties, Mortgagee, to the extent permitted by law, shall be entitled to file such proofs of claim and other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have its claim allowed in such proceedings for the entire unpaid Secured Indebtedness at the date of the institution of such proceedings, and for any additional amounts which may become due and payable after such date.

          Section 5.8. Waiver of Redemption, Notice, Marshalling, Etc. Mortgagor hereby waives and releases, for itself and anyone claiming through, by, or under it, to the maximum extent permitted by the laws of the State of New York:

 

 

 

          (i) all benefit that might accrue to Mortgagor by virtue of any present or future law exempting the Property, or any part of the proceeds arising from any sale thereof, from attachment, levy or sale on execution, or providing for any appraisement, valuation, stay of execution, exemption from civil process, redemption or extension of time for payment,

 

 

 

          (ii) unless specifically required herein, all notices of default, or Mortgagee’s actual exercise of any option or remedy under the Loan Documents, or otherwise, and

 

 

 

          (iii) any right to have the Property marshaled.

          Section 5.9. Discontinuance of Proceedings. If Mortgagee shall have proceeded to enforce any right under any Loan Document and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, then except as may be provided in any written agreement between Mortgagor and Mortgagee providing for the discontinuance or abandonment of such proceedings, Mortgagor and Mortgagee shall be restored to their former positions and the rights, remedies and powers of Mortgagee shall continue as if no such proceedings had been instituted.

34


          Section 5.10. Mortgagee’s Actions. Mortgagee may, at any time without notice to any person and without consideration, do or refrain from doing any or all of the following actions, and neither Mortgagor, any endorser, co-maker, surety or guarantor of the Secured Indebtedness, nor any other person (hereinafter in this Section collectively referred to as the “Obligor”) now or hereafter liable for the payment and performance of the Secured Indebtedness shall be relieved from the payment and performance thereof, unless specifically released in writing by Mortgagee: (a) renew, extend or modify the terms of the Note, this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents, or any of them; (b) forbear or extend the time for the payment or performance of any or all of the Secured Indebtedness; (c) apply payments by any Obligor to the reduction of the unpaid Secured Indebtedness in such manner, in such amounts, and at such times and in such order and priority as Mortgagee may see fit; (d) release any Obligor; (e) substitute or release in whole or in part the Property or any other collateral or any portion thereof now or hereafter held as security for the Secured Indebtedness without affecting, disturbing or impairing in any manner whatsoever the validity and priority of the lien of this Mortgage upon the Property which is not released or substituted, or the validity and priority of any security interest of Mortgagee in such other collateral which is not released or substituted; (f) subordinate the lien of this Mortgage or the lien of any other security interest in any other collateral now or hereafter held as security for the Secured Indebtedness; (g) join in the execution of a plat or replat of the Land (provided, however, notwithstanding the foregoing, Mortgagee will join in such plat or replat of the Land so long as such plat or replat is acceptable to Mortgagee); (h) join in and consent to the filing of a declaration of condominium or declaration of restrictive covenants regarding all or any part of the Land; (i) consent to the granting of any easement on the Land; and (j) generally deal with any obligor or any other party as Mortgagee may see fit.

          Section 5.11. Other Remedies. Mortgagee shall have the right from time to time to protect, exercise and enforce any legal or equitable remedy against Mortgagor provided under the Loan Documents or by applicable Laws.

ARTICLE 6

Miscellaneous

          Section 6.1. Scope of Mortgage. This Mortgage is a Mortgage of both real and personal property, a security agreement, an assignment of rents and leases, a financing statement and fixture filing and a collateral assignment, and also covers proceeds and fixtures.

          Section 6.2. Effective as a Financing Statement. This Mortgage shall be effective as a financing statement filed as a fixture filing with respect to all fixtures included within the Property and is to be filed for record in the real estate records of each county where any part of the Property (including said fixtures) is situated. This Mortgage shall also be effective as a financing statement covering as-extracted collateral (including oil and gas), accounts and general intangibles under the New York Uniform Commercial Code, as in effect from time to time, and the Uniform Commercial Code, as in effect from time to time, in any other state where the Property is situated which will be financed at the wellhead or minehead of the wells or mines located on the Property and is to be filed for record in the real estate records of each county where any part of the Property is situated. This Mortgage shall also be effective as a financing

35


statement covering any other Property and may be filed in any other appropriate filing or recording office. The mailing address of Mortgagor and Mortgagee are set forth in the preamble of this Mortgage and the address of Mortgagee from which information concerning the security interests hereunder may be obtained is the address of Mortgagee set forth at the end of this Mortgage. A carbon, photographic or other reproduction of this Mortgage or of any financing statement relating to this Mortgage shall be sufficient as a financing statement for any of the purposes referred to in this Section.

          Section 6.3. Notice to Account Debtors. In addition to the rights granted elsewhere in this Mortgage, Mortgagee may at any time notify the account debtors or obligors of any accounts, chattel paper, general intangibles, negotiable instruments or other evidences of indebtedness included in the Collateral to pay Mortgagee directly.

          Section 6.4. Waiver by Mortgagee. Mortgagee may at any time and from time to time by a specific writing intended for the purpose: (a) waive compliance by Mortgagor with any covenant herein made by Mortgagor to the extent and in the manner specified in such writing; (b) consent to Mortgagor’s doing any act which hereunder Mortgagor is prohibited from doing, or to Mortgagor’s failing to do any act which hereunder Mortgagor is required to do, to the extent and in the manner specified in such writing; (c) release any part of the Property or any interest therein from the lien and security interest of this Mortgage, without the joinder of Mortgagee; or (d) release any party liable, either directly or indirectly, for the Secured Indebtedness or for any covenant herein or in any other Loan Document, without impairing or releasing the liability of any other party. No such act shall in any way affect the rights or powers of Mortgagee or Mortgagee hereunder except to the extent specifically agreed to by Mortgagee in such writing.

          Section 6.5. No Impairment of Security. The lien, security interest and other security rights of Mortgagee hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall not be impaired by any indulgence, moratorium or release granted by Mortgagee including, but not limited to, any renewal, extension or modification which Mortgagee may grant with respect to any Secured Indebtedness, or any surrender, compromise, release, renewal, extension, exchange or substitution which Mortgagee may grant in respect of the Property, or any part thereof or any interest therein, or any release or indulgence granted to any endorser, guarantor or surety of any Secured Indebtedness. The taking of additional security by Mortgagee shall not release or impair the lien, security interest or other security rights of Mortgagee hereunder or affect the liability of Mortgagor or of any endorser, guarantor or surety, or improve the right of any junior lien Mortgagee in the Property (without implying hereby Mortgagee’s consent to any junior lien).

          Section 6.6. Acts Not Constituting Waiver by Mortgagee. Mortgagee may waive any default without waiving any other prior or subsequent default. Mortgagee may remedy any default without waiving the default remedied. Neither failure by Mortgagee to exercise, nor delay by Mortgagee in exercising, nor discontinuance of the exercise of any right, power or remedy (including but not limited to the right to accelerate the maturity of the Secured Indebtedness or any part thereof) upon or after any default shall be construed as a waiver of such default or as a waiver of the right to exercise any such right, power or remedy at a later date. No single or partial exercise by Mortgagee of any right, power or remedy hereunder shall exhaust the same or shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof, and every such right, power or remedy hereunder may be exercised at any time and from time to time. No modification or

36


waiver of any provision hereof nor consent to any departure by Mortgagor therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Mortgagee and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance, for the purpose for which given and to the extent therein specified. No notice to nor demand on Mortgagor in any case shall of itself entitle Mortgagor to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. Remittances in payment of any part of the Secured 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 Mortgagee 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 practice of the collecting bank or banks. Acceptance by Mortgagee of any payment in an amount less than the amount then due on any Secured Indebtedness shall be deemed an acceptance on account only and shall not in any way excuse the existence of a default hereunder notwithstanding any notation on or accompanying such partial payment to the contrary.

          Section 6.7. Mortgagor’s Successors. If the ownership of the Property or any part thereof becomes vested in a person other than Mortgagor, Mortgagee may, without notice to Mortgagor, deal with such successor or successors in interest with reference to this Mortgage and to the Secured Indebtedness in the same manner as with Mortgagor, without in any way vitiating or discharging Mortgagor’s liability hereunder or for the payment of the indebtedness or performance of the obligations secured hereby. No transfer of the Property, no forbearance on the part of Mortgagee, and no extension of the time for the payment of the Secured Indebtedness given by Mortgagee shall operate to release, discharge, modify, change or affect, in whole or in part, the liability of Mortgagor hereunder for the payment of the indebtedness or performance of the obligations secured hereby or the liability of any other person hereunder for the payment of the indebtedness secured hereby. Each Mortgagor agrees that it shall be bound by any modification of this Mortgage or any of the other Loan Documents made by Mortgagee and any subsequent owner of the Property, with or without notice to such Mortgagor, and no such modifications shall impair the obligations of such Mortgagor under this Mortgage or any other Loan Document. Nothing in this Section or elsewhere in this Mortgage shall be construed to imply Mortgagee’s consent to any transfer of the Property.

          Section 6.8. Place of Payment. All Secured Indebtedness which may be owing hereunder at any time by Mortgagor shall be payable at the place designated in the Note (or if no such designation is made, at the address of Mortgagee indicated at the end of this Mortgage).

          Section 6.9. Subrogation to Existing Liens; Vendor’s Lien. To the extent that proceeds of the Note are used to pay indebtedness secured by any outstanding lien, security interest, charge or prior encumbrance against the Property, such proceeds have been advanced by Mortgagee at Mortgagor’s request, and Mortgagee shall be subrogated to any and all rights, security interests and liens owned by any owner or Mortgagee of such outstanding liens, security interests, charges or encumbrances, however remote, irrespective of whether said liens, security interests, charges or encumbrances are released, and all of the same are recognized as valid and subsisting and are renewed and continued and merged herein to secure the Secured Indebtedness, but the terms and provisions of this Mortgage shall govern and control the manner and terms of enforcement of the liens, security interests, charges and encumbrances to which Mortgagee is subrogated hereunder. It is expressly understood that, in consideration of the payment of such

37


indebtedness by Mortgagee, Mortgagor hereby waives and releases all demands and causes of action for offsets and payments in connection with the said indebtedness. If all or any portion of the proceeds of the loan evidenced by the Note or of any other secured indebtedness has been advanced for the purpose of paying the purchase price for all or a part of the Property, no vendor’s lien is waived; and Mortgagee shall have, and is hereby granted, a vendor’s lien on the Property as cumulative additional security for the secured indebtedness. Mortgagee may foreclose under this Mortgage or under the vendor’s lien without waiving the other or may foreclose under both.

          Section 6.10. Application of Payments to Certain Indebtedness. If any part of the Secured Indebtedness cannot be lawfully secured by this Mortgage or if any part of the Property cannot be lawfully subject to the lien and security interest hereof to the full extent of such indebtedness, then all payments made shall be applied on said indebtedness first in discharge of that portion thereof which is not secured by this Mortgage.

          Section 6.11. Nature of Loan; Compliance with Usury Laws. The loan evidenced by the Note is being made solely for the purpose of carrying on or acquiring a business or commercial enterprise. It is the intent of Mortgagor and Mortgagee and all other parties to the Loan Documents to conform to and contract in strict compliance with applicable usury law from time to time in effect. All agreements between Mortgagee and Mortgagor (or any other party liable with respect to any indebtedness under the Loan Documents) are hereby limited by the provisions of this Section which shall override and control all such agreements, whether now existing or hereafter arising. In no way, nor in any event or contingency (including but not limited to prepayment, default, demand for payment, or acceleration of the maturity of any obligation), shall the interest taken, reserved, contracted for, charged, chargeable, or received under this Mortgage, the Note or any other Loan Document or otherwise, exceed the maximum nonusurious amount permitted by applicable law (the “Maximum Amount”). If, from any possible construction of any document, interest would otherwise be payable in excess of the Maximum Amount, any such construction shall be subject to the provisions of this Section and such document shall ipso facto be automatically reformed and the interest payable shall be automatically reduced to the Maximum Amount, without the necessity of execution of any amendment or new document. If Mortgagee shall ever receive anything of value which is characterized as interest under applicable law and which would apart from this provision be in excess of the Maximum Amount, an amount equal to the amount which would have been excessive interest shall, without penalty, be applied to the reduction of the principal amount owing on the Secured Indebtedness in the inverse order of its maturity and not to the payment of interest, or refunded to Mortgagor or the other payor thereof if and to the extent such amount which would have been excessive exceeds such unpaid principal. The right to accelerate maturity of the Note or any other Secured Indebtedness does not include the right to accelerate any interest which has not otherwise accrued on the date of such acceleration, and Mortgagee does not intend to charge or receive any unearned interest in the event of acceleration. All interest paid or agreed to be paid to Mortgagee shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full stated term (including any renewal or extension) of such indebtedness so that the amount of interest on account of such indebtedness does not exceed the Maximum Amount. As used in this Section, the term “applicable law” shall mean the laws of the State of New York or the federal laws of the United

38


States applicable to this transaction, whichever laws allow the greater interest, as such laws now exist or may be changed or amended or come into effect in the future.

          Section 6.12. Releases.

               (a) Release of Mortgage. If all of the Secured Indebtedness is paid as the same becomes due and payable and all of the covenants, warranties, undertakings and agreements made in this Mortgage are kept and performed, and all Swap Transactions and all other obligations, if any, of Mortgagee for further advances have been terminated, then, and in that event only, all rights under this Mortgage shall terminate (except to the extent expressly provided herein with respect to indemnifications, representations and warranties and other rights which are to continue following the release hereof) and the Property shall become wholly clear of the liens, security interests, conveyances and assignments evidenced hereby, and such liens and security interests shall be released by Mortgagee in due form at Mortgagor’s cost. Without limitation, all provisions herein for indemnity of Mortgagee or Mortgagee shall survive discharge of the Secured Indebtedness, the termination of any and all Swap Transactions and any foreclosure, release or termination of this Mortgage.

               (b) Partial Releases; No Release in Default. Partial releases of the lien of this Mortgage shall be made in accordance with the terms and provisions of Exhibit C attached hereto and by this reference made a part hereof, or in accordance with such other terms and conditions as may subsequently be agreed to by Mortgagee. If no such Exhibit C is attached hereto, then there are no terms and provisions for partial releases, to which Mortgagee and Mortgagor have agreed at this time. In any event, no partial release shall be sought, requested or required if any Default has occurred which has not been cured.

               (c) Effect of Partial Release. Mortgagee may, regardless of consideration, cause the release of any part of the Property from the lien of this Mortgage without in any manner affecting or impairing the lien or priority of this Mortgage as to the remainder of the Property.

               (d) Release Fee. If permitted by applicable law Mortgagor shall pay to Mortgagee, at the time of each partial or complete release of the lien of this Mortgage, a release fee in the amount of $25.00 if the release instrument is delivered to Mortgagee for execution or $50.00, if Mortgagee is required to prepare the release instrument. In addition, Mortgagor shall pay to Mortgagee a fee in the amount of $25.00 for each other document or instrument which Mortgagor requires Mortgagee to execute.

          Section 6.13. Notices. All notices, requests, consents, demands and other communications required or which any party desires to give hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be in writing and, unless otherwise specifically provided in such other Loan Document, shall be deemed sufficiently given or furnished if delivered by personal delivery, by nationally recognized overnight courier service, or by registered or certified United States mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the party to whom directed at the addresses specified in this Mortgage (unless changed by similar notice in writing given by the particular party whose address is to be changed) or by facsimile. Any such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been given either at the time of personal delivery or, in the case of courier or mail, as of the date of first attempted delivery at the address and in the manner provided herein, or, in the case

39


of facsimile, upon receipt; provided that, service of a notice required by any applicable statute shall be considered complete when the requirements of that statute are met. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no notice of change of address shall be effective except upon receipt. This Section shall not be construed in any way to affect or impair any waiver of notice or demand provided in any Loan Document or to require giving of notice or demand to or upon any person in any situation or for any reason.

          Section 6.14. Invalidity of Certain Provisions. A determination that any provision of this Mortgage is unenforceable or invalid shall not affect the enforceability or validity of any other provision and the determination that the application of any provision of this Mortgage to any person or circumstance is illegal or unenforceable shall not affect the enforceability or validity of such provision as it may apply to other persons or circumstances.

ARTICLE 2

Representations, Warranties and Covenants

          Section 2.1. Mortgagor represents, warrants, and covenants as follows:

               (a) Payment and Performance. Mortgagor will make due and punctual payment of the Secured Indebtedness. Mortgagor will timely and properly perform and comply with all of the covenants, agreements, and conditions imposed upon it by this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents and will not permit a default to occur hereunder or thereunder. Time shall be of the essence in this Mortgage.

               (b) Title and Permitted Encumbrances. Mortgagor has, in Mortgagor’s own right, and Mortgagor covenants to maintain, lawful, good and marketable title to the Property, is lawfully seized and possessed of the Property and every part thereof, and has the right to convey the same, free and clear of all liens, charges, claims, security interests, and encumbrances except for (i) the matters, if any, set forth under the heading “Permitted Encumbrances” in Exhibit B hereto,

5


which are Permitted Encumbrances only to the extent the same are valid and subsisting and affect the Property, (ii) the liens and security interests evidenced by this Mortgage, (iii) statutory liens for real estate taxes and assessments on the Property which are not yet delinquent, and (iv) other liens and security interests (if any) in favor of Mortgagee (the matters described in the foregoing clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) being herein called the “Permitted Encumbrances”). Mortgagor owns and holds the Fee Parcel in fee simple absolute. Mortgagor is the owner of a valid and subsisting interest as tenant under the Ground Lease, that the Ground Lease is in full force and effect, there are no defaults thereunder and no event has occurred or is occurring which after notice or passage of time or both will result in such a default, that the Ground Lease is subject to no lien, charge or encumbrance of any kind and is prior to all liens, charges and encumbrances whatsoever on the fee interest of the lessor thereunder except such as are listed as exceptions to title in the title policy insuring the lien hereof. Mortgagor, and Mortgagor’s successors and assigns, will warrant generally and forever defend title to the Property, subject as aforesaid, to Mortgagee and his successors or substitutes and assigns, against the claims and demands of all persons claiming or to claim the same or any part thereof. Mortgagor will preserve the leasehold estate created in it by the Ground Lease, and will forever warrant and defend the same to Mortgagee and will forever warrant and defend the validity and priority of the lien hereof against the claims of all persons and parties whomsoever. Mortgagor will perform or cause to be performed all of the covenants and conditions required to be performed by it under the Ground Lease, will do all things necessary to preserve unimpaired its rights thereunder, and will not enter into any agreement modifying or amending the Ground Lease or releasing the lessor thereunder from any obligations imposed upon it thereby. If Mortgagor receives a notice of default under the Ground Lease, it shall immediately cause a copy of such notice to be sent by registered United States mail to Mortgagee. Mortgagor will punctually pay, perform, observe and keep all covenants, obligations and conditions in or pursuant to any Permitted Encumbrance and will not modify or permit modification of any Permitted Encumbrance without the prior written consent of Mortgagee. Inclusion of any matter as a Permitted Encumbrance does not constitute approval or waiver by Mortgagee of any existing or future violation or other breach thereof by Mortgagor, by the Property or otherwise. No part of the Property constitutes all or any part of the principal residence of Mortgagor if Mortgagor is an individual. If any right or interest of Mortgagee in the Property or any part thereof shall be endangered or questioned or shall be attacked directly or indirectly, Mortgagee and Mortgagee, or either of them (whether or not named as parties to legal proceedings with respect thereto), are hereby authorized and empowered to take such steps as in their discretion may be proper for the defense of any such legal proceedings or the protection of such right or interest of Mortgagee, including but not limited to the employment of independent counsel, the prosecution or defense of litigation, and the compromise or discharge of adverse claims. All expenditures so made of every kind and character shall be a demand obligation (which obligation Mortgagor hereby promises to pay) owing by Mortgagor to Mortgagee or Mortgagee (as the case may be), and the party (Mortgagee or Mortgagee, as the case may be) making such expenditures shall be subrogated to all rights of the person receiving such payment.

               (c) Taxes and Other Impositions/Condominum Charges. Mortgagor will pay, or cause to be paid, all taxes, assessments and other charges or levies imposed upon or against or with respect to the Property or the ownership, use, occupancy or enjoyment of any portion thereof, or any utility service thereto, as the same become due and payable, including but not limited to all real estate taxes assessed against the Property or any part thereof, and shall deliver

6


promptly to Mortgagee such evidence of the payment thereof as Mortgagee may require. Any lien for Condominium Assessments, whenever accruing, shall, pursuant to the Declaration, be subordinate to the lien of this Mortgage.

               (d) Insurance. Mortgagor shall obtain and maintain at Mortgagor’s sole expense: (1) mortgagee title insurance issued to Mortgagee covering the Premises as required by Mortgagee, without exception for mechanics’ liens; (2) property insurance with respect to all insurable Property, against loss or damage by fire, lightning, windstorm, explosion, hail, tornado and such additional hazards as are presently included in “Special Form” (also known as “all-risk”) coverage and against any and all acts of terrorism and such other insurable hazards as Mortgagee may require, in an amount not less than 100% of the full replacement cost, including the cost of debris removal, without deduction for depreciation and sufficient to prevent Mortgagor and Mortgagee from becoming a coinsurer, such insurance to be in “builder’s risk” completed value (non-reporting) form during and with respect to any construction (other than construction of customary tenant improvements in existing buildings) on the Premises; (3) if and to the extent any portion of the Improvements is, under the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973 (“FDPA”), as it may be amended from time to time, in a Special Flood Hazard Area, within a Flood Zone designated A or V in a participating community, a flood insurance policy in an amount required by Mortgagee, but in no event less than the amount sufficient to meet the requirements of applicable law and the FDPA, as such requirements may from time to time be in effect; (4) general liability insurance, on an “occurrence” basis, against claims for “personal injury” liability, including bodily injury, death or property damage liability, for the benefit of Mortgagor as named insured and Mortgagee as additional insured; (5) statutory workers’ compensation insurance with respect to any work on or about the Premises (including employer’s liability insurance, if required by Mortgagee), covering all employees of Mortgagor and any contractor; (6) if there is a general contractor, during and with respect to any construction (other than construction of customary tenant improvements in existing buildings) on the Premises, commercial general liability insurance, including products and completed operations coverage, and in other respects similar to that described in clause (4) above, for the benefit of the general contractor as named insured and Mortgagor and Mortgagee as additional insureds, in addition to statutory workers’ compensation insurance with respect to any work on or about the Premises (including employer’s liability insurance, if required by Mortgagee), covering all employees of the general contractor any contractor; and (7) such other insurance on the Property and endorsements as may from time to time be required by Mortgagee (including but not limited to soft cost coverage, automobile liability insurance, business interruption insurance or delayed rental insurance, boiler and machinery insurance, earthquake insurance, wind insurance, sinkhole coverage, and/or permit to occupy endorsement) and against other insurable hazards or casualties which at the time are commonly insured against in the case of premises similarly situated, due regard being given to the height, type, construction, location, use and occupancy of buildings and improvements. All insurance policies shall be issued and maintained by insurers, in amounts, with deductibles, limits and retentions, and in forms satisfactory to Mortgagee, and shall require not less than ten (10) days’ prior written notice to Mortgagee of any cancellation for nonpayment of premiums, and not less than thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Mortgagee of any other cancellation or any change of coverage. All insurance companies must be licensed to do business in the state in which the Property is located and must have an A.M. Best Company financial and performance ratings of A-:IX or better. All insurance policies maintained, or caused to be maintained, by Mortgagor with respect to the Property, except for general liability

7


insurance, shall provide that each such policy shall be primary without right of contribution from any other insurance that may be carried by Mortgagor or Mortgagee and that all of the provisions thereof, except the limits of liability, shall operate in the same manner as if there were a separate policy covering each insured. If any insurer which has issued a policy of title, hazard, liability or other insurance required pursuant to this Mortgage or any other Loan Document becomes insolvent or the subject of any petition, case, proceeding or other action pursuant to any Debtor Relief Law, or if in Mortgagee’s reasonable opinion the financial responsibility of such insurer is or becomes inadequate, Mortgagor shall, in each instance promptly upon its discovery thereof or upon the request of Mortgagee therefor, and at Mortgagor’s expense, promptly obtain and deliver to Mortgagee a like policy (or, if and to the extent permitted by Mortgagee, acceptable evidence of insurance) issued by another insurer, which insurer and policy meet the requirements of this Mortgage or such other Loan Document, as the case may be. Without limiting the discretion of Mortgagee with respect to required endorsements to insurance policies, all such policies for loss of or damage to the Property shall contain a standard mortgagee clause (without contribution) naming Mortgagee as mortgagee with loss proceeds payable to Mortgagee notwithstanding (i) any act, failure to act or negligence of or violation of any warranty, declaration or condition contained in any such policy by any named or additional insured; (ii) the occupation or use of the Property for purposes more hazardous than permitted by the terms of any such policy; (iii) any foreclosure or other action by Mortgagee under the Loan Documents; or (iv) any change in title to or ownership of the Property or any portion thereof, such proceeds to be held for application as provided in the Loan Documents. The originals of each initial insurance policy (or to the extent permitted by Mortgagee, a copy of the original policy and such evidence of insurance acceptable to Mortgagee) shall be delivered to Mortgagee at the time of execution of this Mortgage, with all premiums fully paid current, and each renewal or substitute policy (or evidence of insurance) shall be delivered to Mortgagee, with all premiums fully paid current, at least ten (10) days before the termination of the policy it renews or replaces. Mortgagor shall pay all premiums on policies required hereunder as they become due and payable and promptly deliver to Mortgagee evidence satisfactory to Mortgagee of the timely payment thereof. If any loss occurs at any time when Mortgagor has failed to perform Mortgagor’s covenants and agreements in this paragraph with respect to any insurance payable because of loss sustained to any part of the Property whether or not such insurance is required by Mortgagee, Mortgagee shall nevertheless be entitled to the benefit of all insurance covering the loss and held by or for Mortgagor, to the same extent as if it had been made payable to Mortgagee. Upon any foreclosure hereof or transfer of title to the Property in extinguishment of the whole or any part of the Secured Indebtedness, all of Mortgagor’s right, title and interest in and to the insurance policies referred to in this Section (including unearned premiums) and all proceeds payable thereunder shall thereupon vest in the purchaser at foreclosure or other such transferee, to the extent permissible under such policies. Mortgagee shall have the right (but not the obligation) to make proof of loss for, settle and adjust any claim under, and receive the proceeds of, all insurance for loss of or damage to the Property where the loss is estimated by Mortgagee to be $1,000,000 or more, regardless of whether or not such insurance policies are required by Mortgagee, and the expenses incurred by Mortgagee in the adjustment and collection of insurance proceeds shall be a part of the Secured Indebtedness and shall be due and payable to Mortgagee on demand. Mortgagee shall not be, under any circumstances, liable or responsible for failure to collect or exercise diligence in the collection of any of such proceeds or for the obtaining, maintaining or adequacy of any insurance or for failure to see to the proper application

8


of any amount paid over to Mortgagor. Any such proceeds received by Mortgagee shall, after deduction therefrom of all reasonable expenses actually incurred by Mortgagee, including attorneys’ fees, at Mortgagee’s option be (1) released to Mortgagor, or (2) applied (upon compliance with such terms and conditions as may be required by Mortgagee) to repair or restoration, either partly or entirely, of the Property so damaged, or (3) applied to the payment of the Secured Indebtedness in such order and manner as Mortgagee, in its sole discretion, may elect, whether or not due. In any event, the unpaid portion of the Secured Indebtedness shall remain in full force and effect and the payment thereof shall not be excused. Mortgagor shall at all times comply with the requirements of the insurance policies required hereunder and of the issuers of such policies and of any board of fire underwriters or similar body as applicable to or affecting the Property.

               (e) Application of Insurance Proceeds. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in the preceding Section 2.1(d), if the Property is damaged or destroyed and Mortgagee determines that all of the conditions specified hereinafter in this Section have been satisfied, then Mortgagee shall apply the proceeds of insurance (i) first to reimbursing itself for all costs incurred by it in the collection of such proceeds and (ii) second to reimbursing Mortgagor for such actual costs as shall have been incurred by Mortgagor in restoring the Property and shall be approved by Mortgagee. Insurance proceeds shall be applied to such restoration solely if (A) Mortgagee determines that: (i) the Property is capable of being suitably restored in accordance with applicable Legal Requirements to the value, condition, character and general utility existing prior to such damage or destruction, and, in any event, to a Loan to Value Ratio of not greater than 70%, provided that this clause (i) shall not apply to insurance proceeds relating to a casualty for which the gross insurance proceeds do not exceed $1,000,000; (ii) sufficient funds are unconditionally available (from proceeds of insurance and/or from funds of Mortgagor) to enable Mortgagor promptly to commence, and thereafter diligently to prosecute to completion, such restoration, provided that this clause (ii) shall not apply to insurance proceeds relating to a casualty for which the gross insurance proceeds do not exceed $1,000,000; (iii) Mortgagor is not in default or in breach of any obligations under any Loan Document, no uncured Default exists under any Loan Document and no facts or circumstances exist that would constitute a Default with the passage of time or the giving of notice or both; and (iv) neither the validity, enforceability nor priority of the lien of this Mortgage shall be adversely affected; (B) Mortgagor has entered into a written agreement, satisfactory in form and substance to Mortgagee, containing such conditions to disbursements as are employed at the time by Mortgagee for construction loans; (C) Mortgagor has delivered to Mortgagee such security as Mortgagee might have reasonably required to assure completion of restoration in accordance with the standards specified above; and (D) Mortgagor has complied with such further reasonable requirements as Mortgagee might have specified.

               (f) Reserve for Insurance, Taxes and Assessments. Upon request of Mortgagee, to secure the payment and performance of the Secured Indebtedness, but not in lieu of such payment and performance, Mortgagor will deposit with Mortgagee a sum equal to real estate taxes, assessments and charges (which charges for the purposes of this paragraph shall include without limitation any recurring charge which could result in a lien against the Property) against the Property for the current year and the premiums for such policies of insurance for the current year, all as estimated by Mortgagee and prorated to the end of the calendar month following the month during which Mortgagee’s request is made, and thereafter will deposit with Mortgagee, on

9


each date when an installment of principal and/or interest is due on the Note, sufficient funds (as estimated from time to time by Mortgagee) to permit Mortgagee to pay at least fifteen (15) days prior to the due date thereof, the next maturing real estate taxes, assessments and charges and premiums for such policies of insurance. Mortgagee shall have the right to rely upon tax information furnished by applicable taxing authorities in the payment of such taxes or assessments and shall have no obligation to make any protest of any such taxes or assessments. Any excess over the amounts required for such purposes shall be held by Mortgagee for future use, applied to any Secured Indebtedness or refunded to Mortgagor, at Mortgagee’s option, and any deficiency in such funds so deposited shall be made up by Mortgagor upon demand of Mortgagee. All such funds so deposited shall bear no interest, may be commingled with the general funds of Mortgagee and shall be applied by Mortgagee toward the payment of such taxes, assessments, charges and premiums when statements therefor are presented to Mortgagee by Mortgagor (which statements shall be presented by Mortgagor to Mortgagee a reasonable time before the applicable amount is due); provided, however, that, if a Default shall have occurred hereunder, such funds may at Mortgagee’s option be applied to the payment of the Secured Indebtedness in the order determined by Mortgagee in its sole discretion, and that Mortgagee may (but shall have no obligation) at any time, in its discretion, apply all or any part of such funds toward the payment of any such taxes, assessments, charges or premiums which are past due, together with any penalties or late charges with respect thereto. The conveyance or transfer of Mortgagor’s interest in the Property for any reason (including without limitation the foreclosure of a subordinate lien or security interest or a transfer by operation of law) shall constitute an assignment or transfer of Mortgagor’s interest in and rights to such funds held by Mortgagee under this paragraph but subject to the rights of Mortgagee hereunder.

               (g) Condemnation. Mortgagor shall notify Mortgagee immediately of any threatened or pending proceeding for condemnation affecting the Property or arising out of damage to the Property, and Mortgagor shall, at Mortgagor’s expense, diligently prosecute any such proceedings. Mortgagee shall have the right (but not the obligation) to participate in any such proceeding and to be represented by counsel of its own choice. Mortgagee shall be entitled to receive all sums which may be awarded or become payable to Mortgagor for the condemnation of the Property, or any part thereof, for public or quasi-public use, or by virtue of private sale in lieu thereof, and any sums which may be awarded or become payable to Mortgagor for injury or damage to the Property. Mortgagor shall, promptly upon request of Mortgagee, execute such additional assignments and other documents as may be necessary from time to time to permit such participation and to enable Mortgagee to collect and receipt for any such sums. All such sums are hereby assigned to Mortgagee, and shall, after deduction therefrom of all reasonable expenses actually incurred by Mortgagee, including attorneys’ fees, at Mortgagee’s option be (1) released to Mortgagor, or (2) applied (upon compliance with such terms and conditions as may be required by Mortgagee) to repair or restoration of the Property so affected, or (3) applied to the payment of the Secured Indebtedness in such order and manner as Mortgagee, in its sole discretion, may elect, whether or not due. In any event the unpaid portion of the Secured Indebtedness shall remain in full force and effect and the payment thereof shall not be excused. Mortgagee shall not be, under any circumstances, liable or responsible for failure to collect or to exercise diligence in the collection of any such sum or for failure to see to the proper application of any amount paid over to Mortgagor. Mortgagee is hereby authorized, in the name of Mortgagor, to execute and deliver valid acquittances for, and to appeal from, any such award, judgment or decree. All costs and expenses (including but not limited to attorneys’ fees) incurred

10


by Mortgagee in connection with any condemnation shall be a demand obligation owing by Mortgagor (which Mortgagor hereby promises to pay) to Mortgagee pursuant to this Mortgage.

               (h) Compliance with Legal Requirements. The Property and the use, operation and maintenance thereof and all activities thereon do and shall at all times comply with all applicable Legal Requirements (hereinafter defined). The Property is not, and shall not be, dependent on any other property or premises or any interest therein other than the Property to fulfill any requirement of any Legal Requirement. Mortgagor shall not, by act or omission, permit any building or other improvement not subject to the lien of this Mortgage to rely on the Property or any interest therein to fulfill any requirement of any Legal Requirement. No improvement upon or use of any part of the Property constitutes a nonconforming use under any zoning law or similar law or ordinance. Mortgagor has obtained and shall preserve in force all requisite zoning, utility, building, health, environmental and operating permits from the governmental authorities having jurisdiction over the Property.

          If Mortgagor receives a notice or claim from any person that the Property, or any use, activity, operation or maintenance thereof or thereon, is not in compliance with any Legal Requirement, Mortgagor will promptly furnish a copy of such notice or claim to Mortgagee. Mortgagor has received no notice and has no knowledge of any such noncompliance. As used in this Mortgage: (i) the term “Legal Requirement” means any Law (hereinafter defined), agreement, covenant, restriction, easement or condition (including, without limitation of the foregoing, any condition or requirement imposed by any insurance or surety company), as any of the same now exists or may be changed or amended or come into effect in the future; and (ii) the term “Law” means any federal, state or local law, statute, ordinance, code, rule, regulation, license, permit, authorization, decision, order, injunction or decree, domestic or foreign.

               (i) Maintenance, Repair and Restoration. Mortgagor will keep the Property in first class order, repair, operating condition and appearance, causing all necessary repairs, renewals, replacements, additions and improvements to be promptly made, and will not allow any of the Property to be misused, abused or wasted or to deteriorate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Mortgagor will not, without the prior written consent of Mortgagee, (i) remove from the Property any fixtures or personal property covered by this Mortgage except such as is replaced by Mortgagor by an article of equal suitability and value, owned by Mortgagor, free and clear of any lien or security interest (except that created by this Mortgage), or (ii) make any structural alteration to the Property or any other alteration thereto which impairs the value thereof. If any act or occurrence of any kind or nature (including any condemnation or any casualty for which insurance was not obtained or obtainable) shall result in damage to or loss or destruction of the Property, Mortgagor shall give prompt notice thereof to Mortgagee and Mortgagor shall promptly, at Mortgagor’s sole cost and expense and regardless of whether insurance or condemnation proceeds (if any) shall be available or sufficient for the purpose, secure the Property as necessary and commence and continue diligently to completion to restore, repair, replace and rebuild the Property as nearly as possible to its value, condition and character immediately prior to the damage, loss or destruction.

               (j) No Other Liens. Mortgagor will not, without the prior written consent of Mortgagee, create, place or permit to be created or placed, or through any act or failure to act, acquiesce in the placing of, or allow to remain, any mortgage, voluntary or involuntary lien,

11


whether statutory, constitutional or contractual, security interest, encumbrance or charge, or conditional sale or other title retention document, against or covering the Property, or any part thereof, other than the Permitted Encumbrances, regardless of whether the same are expressly or otherwise subordinate to the lien or security interest created in this Mortgage, and should any of the foregoing become attached hereafter in any manner to any part of the Property without the prior written consent of Mortgagee, Mortgagor will cause the same to be promptly discharged and released. Mortgagor will own all parts of the Property and will not acquire any fixtures, equipment or other property (including software embedded therein) forming a part of the Property pursuant to a lease, license, security agreement or similar agreement, whereby any party has or may obtain the right to repossess or remove same, without the prior written consent of Mortgagee. If Mortgagee consents to the voluntary grant by Mortgagor of any mortgage, lien, security interest, or other encumbrance (hereinafter called “Subordinate Lien”) covering any of the Property or if the foregoing prohibition is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable as to a Subordinate Lien, any such Subordinate Lien shall contain express covenants to the effect that: (1) the Subordinate Lien is unconditionally subordinate to this Mortgage and all Leases (hereinafter defined); (2) if any action (whether judicial or pursuant to a power of sale) shall be instituted to foreclose or otherwise enforce the Subordinate Lien, no tenant of any of the Leases (hereinafter defined) shall be named as a party defendant, and no action shall be taken that would terminate any occupancy or tenancy without the prior written consent of Mortgagee; (3) Rents (hereinafter defined), if collected by or for Mortgagee of the Subordinate Lien, shall be applied first to the payment of the Secured Indebtedness then due and expenses incurred in the ownership, operation and maintenance of the Property in such order as Mortgagee may determine, prior to being applied to any indebtedness secured by the Subordinate Lien; (4) written notice of default under the Subordinate Lien and written notice of the commencement of any action (whether judicial or pursuant to a power of sale) to foreclose or otherwise enforce the Subordinate Lien or to seek the appointment of a receiver for all or any part of the Property shall be given to Mortgagee with or immediately after the occurrence of any such default or commencement; and (5) neither Mortgagee of the Subordinate Lien, nor any purchaser at foreclosure thereunder, nor anyone claiming by, through or under any of them shall succeed to any of Mortgagor’s rights hereunder without the prior written consent of Mortgagee.

               (k) Operation of Property. Mortgagor will operate the Property in a good and workmanlike manner and in accordance with all Legal Requirements and will pay all fees or charges of any kind in connection therewith. Mortgagor will keep the Property occupied so as not to impair the insurance carried thereon. Mortgagor will not use or occupy or conduct any activity on, or allow the use or occupancy of or the conduct of any activity on, the Property in any manner which violates any Legal Requirement or which constitutes a public or private nuisance or which makes void, voidable or cancelable, or increases the premium of, any insurance then in force with respect thereto. Mortgagor will not initiate or permit any zoning reclassification of the Property or seek any variance under existing zoning ordinances applicable to the Property or use or permit the use of the Property in such a manner which would result in such use becoming a nonconforming use under applicable zoning ordinances or other Legal Requirement. Mortgagor will not impose any easement, restrictive covenant or encumbrance upon the Property, execute or file any subdivision plat or condominium declaration affecting the Property or consent to the annexation of the Property to any municipality, without the prior written consent of Mortgagee. Mortgagor will not do or suffer to be done any act whereby the value of any part of the Property may be lessened. Mortgagor will preserve, protect, renew,

12


extend and retain all material rights and privileges granted for or applicable to the Property. Without the prior written consent of Mortgagee, there shall be no drilling or exploration for or extraction, removal or production of any mineral, hydrocarbon, gas, natural element, compound or substance (including sand and gravel) from the surface or subsurface of the Land regardless of the depth thereof or the method of mining or extraction thereof. Mortgagor will cause all debts and liabilities of any character (including without limitation all debts and liabilities for labor, material and equipment (including software embedded therein) and all debts and charges for utilities servicing the Property) incurred in the construction, maintenance, operation and development of the Property to be promptly paid.

               (l) Financial Matters. Mortgagor is solvent after giving effect to all borrowings contemplated by the Loan Documents and no proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law (hereinafter defined) is pending (or, to Mortgagor’s knowledge, threatened) by or against Mortgagor, or any affiliate of Mortgagor, as a debtor. All reports, statements, plans, budgets, applications, agreements and other data and information heretofore furnished or hereafter to be furnished by or on behalf of Mortgagor to Mortgagee in connection with the loan or loans evidenced by the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, all financial statements and financial information) are and will be true, correct and complete in all material respects as of their respective dates and do not and will not omit to state any fact or circumstance necessary to make the statements contained therein not misleading. No material adverse change has occurred since the dates of such reports, statements and other data in the financial condition of Mortgagor or, to Mortgagor’s knowledge, of any tenant under any lease described therein. For the purposes of this paragraph, “Mortgagor” shall also include any person liable directly or indirectly for the Secured Indebtedness or any part thereof and any joint venturer or general partner of Mortgagor.

               (m) Status of Mortgagor; Suits and Claims; Loan Documents. If Mortgagor is a corporation, partnership, limited liability company, or other legal entity, Mortgagor is and will continue to be (i) duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its state of organization, (ii) authorized to do business in, and in good standing in, each state in which the Property is located, and (iii) possessed of all requisite power and authority to carry on its business and to own and operate the Property. Each Loan Document executed by Mortgagor has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by Mortgagor, and the obligations thereunder and the performance thereof by Mortgagor in accordance with their terms are and will continue to be within Mortgagor’s power and authority (without the necessity of joinder or consent of any other person), are not and will not be in contravention of any Legal Requirement or any other document or agreement to which Mortgagor or the Property is subject, and do not and will not result in the creation of any encumbrance against any assets or properties of Mortgagor, or any other person liable, directly or indirectly, for any of the Secured Indebtedness, except as expressly contemplated by the Loan Documents. There is no suit, action, claim, investigation, inquiry, proceeding or demand pending (or, to Mortgagor’s knowledge, threatened) against Mortgagor (other than the lawsuit commenced by The Omni Health & Fitness Complex of Pelham, Inc., et al. in the Westchester County Supreme Court under index no. 24678/2008) or against any other person liable directly or indirectly for the Secured Indebtedness or which affects the Property (including, without limitation, any which challenges or otherwise pertains to Mortgagor’s title to the Property) or the validity, enforceability or priority of any of the Loan Documents. There is no judicial or administrative action, suit or proceeding pending (or, to Mortgagor’s knowledge, threatened) against Mortgagor, or against any other person liable

13


directly or indirectly for the Secured Indebtedness, except as has been disclosed in writing to Mortgagee in connection with the loan evidenced by the Note. The Loan Documents constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of Mortgagor enforceable in accordance with their terms, except as the enforceability thereof may be limited by Debtor Relief Laws (hereinafter defined) and except as the availability of certain remedies may be limited by general principles of equity. Mortgagor is not a “foreign person” within the meaning of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, Sections 1445 and 7701 (i.e. Mortgagor is not a non-resident alien, foreign corporation, foreign partnership, foreign trust or foreign estate as those terms are defined therein and in any regulations promulgated thereunder). The loan evidenced by the Note is solely for business and/or investment purposes, and is not intended for personal, family, household or agricultural purposes. Mortgagor further warrants that the proceeds of the Note shall be used for commercial purposes and stipulates that the loan evidenced by the Note shall be construed for all purposes as a commercial loan. Mortgagor’s exact legal name is correctly set forth at the end of this Mortgage. If Mortgagor is not an individual, Mortgagor is an organization of the type and (if not an unregistered entity) is incorporated in or organized under the laws of the state specified in the introductory paragraph of this Mortgage. If Mortgagor is an unregistered entity (including, without limitation, a general partnership) it is organized under the laws of the state specified in the introductory paragraph of this Mortgage. Mortgagor will not cause or permit any change to be made in its name, identity (including its trade name or names), or corporate or partnership structure, unless Mortgagor shall have notified Mortgagee in writing of such change at least thirty (30) days prior to the effective date of such change, and shall have first taken all action required by Mortgagee for the purpose of further perfecting or protecting the lien and security interest of Mortgagee in the Property. In addition, Mortgagor shall not change its corporate or partnership structure without first obtaining the prior written consent of Mortgagee. Mortgagor’s principal place of business and chief executive office, and the place where Mortgagor keeps its books and records, including recorded data of any kind or nature, regardless of the medium of recording including, without limitation, software, writings, plans, specifications and schematics concerning the Property, has for the preceding four months (or, if less, the entire period of the existence of Mortgagor) been and will continue to be (unless Mortgagor notifies Mortgagee of any change in writing at least thirty (30) days prior to the date of such change) the address of Mortgagor set forth at the end of this Mortgage. If Mortgagor is an individual, Mortgagor’s principal residence has for the preceding four months been and will continue to be (unless Mortgagor notifies Mortgagee of any change in writing at least thirty (30) days prior to the date of such change) the address of the principal residence of Mortgagor set forth at the end of this Mortgage. Mortgagor’s organizational identification number, if any, assigned by the state of incorporation or organization is correctly set forth on the first page of this Mortgage. Mortgagor shall promptly notify Mortgagee (i) of any change of its organizational identification number, or (ii) if Mortgagor does not now have an organization identification number and later obtains one, of such organizational identification number.

               (n) Certain Environmental Matters. Mortgagor shall comply with the terms and covenants of that certain Environmental Indemnity Agreement dated of even date herewith (the “Environmental Agreement”).

14


deliver, procure and record and/or file such further documents (including, without limitation, further mortgages of trust, security agreements, and assignments of rents or leases) and do such further acts as may be necessary, desirable or proper to carry out more effectively the purposes of this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents, to more fully identify and subject to the liens and security interests hereof any property intended to be covered hereby (including specifically, but without limitation, any renewals, additions, substitutions, replacements, or appurtenances to the Property) or as deemed advisable by Mortgagee to protect the lien or the security interest hereunder against the rights or interests of third persons; and (iii) provide such certificates, documents, reports, information, affidavits and other instruments and do such further acts as may be necessary, desirable or proper in the reasonable determination of Mortgagee to enable Mortgagee to comply with the requirements or requests of any agency having jurisdiction over Mortgagee or any examiners of such agencies with respect to the indebtedness secured hereby, Mortgagor or the Property. Mortgagor shall pay all costs connected with any of the foregoing, which shall be a demand obligation owing by Mortgagor (which Mortgagor hereby promises to pay) to Mortgagee pursuant to this Mortgage.

               (p) Fees and Expenses. Without limitation of any other provision of this Mortgage or of any other Loan Document and to the extent not prohibited by applicable law, Mortgagor will pay, and will reimburse to Mortgagee and/or Mortgagee on demand to the extent paid by Mortgagee and/or Mortgagee: (i) all appraisal fees, filing, registration and recording fees, recordation, transfer and other taxes, brokerage fees and commissions, abstract fees, title search or examination fees, title policy and endorsement premiums and fees, uniform commercial code search fees, judgment and tax lien search fees, escrow fees, reasonable attorneys’ fees, reasonable architect fees, reasonable engineer fees, reasonable construction consultant fees, reasonable environmental inspection fees, survey fees, and all other reasonable costs and expenses of every character incurred by Mortgagor or Mortgagee and/or Mortgagee in connection with the preparation of the Loan Documents, the evaluation, closing and funding of the loan evidenced by the Loan Documents, and any and all amendments and supplements to this Mortgage, the Note or any other Loan Documents or any approval, consent, waiver, release or other matter requested or required hereunder or thereunder, or otherwise attributable or chargeable to Mortgagor as owner of the Property; and (ii) all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, incurred or expended in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy, or the defense of any right or remedy or the enforcement of any obligation of Mortgagor, hereunder or under any other Loan Document.

Without limitation, the foregoing indemnities shall apply to each indemnified person with respect to matters which in whole or in part are caused by or arise out of the negligence of such (and/or any other) indemnified person. However, such indemnities shall not apply to a particular indemnified person to the extent that the subject of the indemnification is caused by or arises out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of that indemnified person. Any amount to be paid under this paragraph (p)

          (ii) As used herein, the term “Indemnified Matters” means any and all claims, demands, liabilities (including strict liability), losses, damages (including consequential damages), causes of action, judgments, penalties, fines, costs and expenses (including without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of attorneys and other professional consultants and experts, and of the investigation and defense of any claim, whether or not such claim is ultimately defeated, and the settlement of any claim or judgment including all value paid or given in settlement) of every kind, known or unknown, foreseeable or unforeseeable, which may be imposed upon, asserted against or incurred or paid by Mortgagee at any time and from time to time, whenever imposed, asserted or incurred, because of, resulting from, in connection with, or arising out of any transaction, act, omission, event or circumstance in any way connected with the Property or with this Mortgage or any other Loan Document, including but not limited to any bodily injury or death or property damage occurring in or upon or in the vicinity of the Property through any cause whatsoever at any time on or before the Release Date (hereinafter defined), any act performed or omitted to be performed hereunder or under any other Loan Document, any breach by Mortgagor of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or condition contained in this Mortgage or in any other Loan Document, any default as defined herein, any claim under or with respect to any Lease (hereinafter defined) or arising under the Environmental Agreement. The term “Release Date” as used herein means the earlier of the following two dates: (i) the date on which the indebtedness and obligations secured hereby have been paid and performed in full and this Mortgage has been released, or (ii) the date on which the lien of this Mortgage is fully and finally foreclosed or a conveyance by deed in lieu of such foreclosure is fully and finally effective, and possession of the Property has been given to the purchaser or grantee free of occupancy and claims to occupancy by Mortgagor and Mortgagor’s heirs, devisees, representatives, successors and assigns; provided, that if such payment, performance, release, foreclosure or conveyance is challenged, in bankruptcy proceedings or otherwise, the Release Date shall be deemed not to have occurred until such challenge is rejected, dismissed or withdrawn with prejudice.

               (s) Taxes on Note or Mortgage. Mortgagor will promptly pay all income, franchise and other taxes owing by Mortgagor and any stamp, documentary, recordation and transfer taxes or other taxes (unless such payment by Mortgagor is prohibited by law) which may be required to be paid with respect to the Note, this Mortgage or any other instrument evidencing or securing any of the Secured Indebtedness. In the event of the enactment after this date of any law of any governmental entity applicable to Mortgagee, the Note, the Property or this Mortgage deducting from the value of property for the purpose of taxation any lien or security interest thereon, or imposing upon Mortgagee the payment of the whole or any part of the taxes or assessments or charges or liens herein required to be paid by Mortgagor, or changing in any way the laws relating to the taxation of deeds of trust or mortgages or security agreements or debts secured by deeds of trust or mortgages or security agreements or the interest of the mortgagee or secured party in the property covered thereby, or the manner of collection of such taxes, so as to affect this Mortgage or the Secured Indebtedness or Mortgagee, then, and in any such event, Mortgagor, upon demand by Mortgagee, shall pay such taxes, assessments, charges or liens, or reimburse Mortgagee therefor; provided, however, that if in the opinion of counsel for Mortgagee (i) it might be unlawful to require Mortgagor to make such payment or (ii) the making of such payment might result in the imposition of interest beyond the maximum amount permitted by law, then and in such event, Mortgagee may elect, by notice in writing given to Mortgagor, to declare all of the Secured Indebtedness to be and become due and payable sixty (60) days from the giving of such notice.

          Section 2.2. Performance by Mortgagee on Mortgagor’s Behalf. Mortgagor agrees that, if Mortgagor fails to perform any act or to take any action which under any Loan Document Mortgagor is required to perform or take, or to pay any money which under any Loan Document Mortgagor is required to pay, and whether or not the failure then constitutes a default hereunder or thereunder, and whether or not there has occurred any default or defaults hereunder or the Secured Indebtedness has been accelerated, Mortgagee, in Mortgagor’s name or its own name, may, but shall not be obligated to, perform or cause to be performed such act or take such action or pay such money, and any expenses so incurred by Mortgagee, with interest thereon at the Default Rate set forth in the Note, and any money so paid by Mortgagee shall be a demand obligation owing by Mortgagor to Mortgagee (which obligation Mortgagor hereby promises to pay), shall be a part of the indebtedness secured hereby, and Mortgagee, upon making such payment, shall be subrogated to all of the rights of the person, entity or body politic receiving such payment. Mortgagee and its designees shall have the right to enter upon the Property at any time and from time to time for any such purposes. No such payment or performance by Mortgagee shall waive or cure any default or waive any right, remedy or recourse of Mortgagee. Any such payment may be made by Mortgagee in reliance on any statement, invoice or claim without inquiry into the validity or accuracy thereof. Each amount due and owing by Mortgagor to Mortgagee pursuant to this Mortgage shall bear interest, from the date such amount becomes due until paid, at the rate per annum provided in the Note for interest on past due principal owed on the Note but never in excess of the maximum nonusurious amount permitted by applicable law, which interest shall be payable to Mortgagee on demand; and all such amounts, together with such interest thereon, shall automatically and without notice be a part of the indebtedness secured hereby. The amount and nature of any expense by Mortgagee hereunder and the time when paid shall be fully established by the certificate of Mortgagee or any of Mortgagee’s officers or agents.

18


          Section 2.3. Absence of Obligations of Mortgagee with Respect to Property. Notwithstanding anything in this Mortgage to the contrary, including, without limitation, the definition of “Property” and/or the provisions of Article 3 hereof, (i) to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Property is composed of Mortgagor’s rights, title and interests therein but not Mortgagor’s obligations, duties or liabilities pertaining thereto, (ii) Mortgagee neither assumes nor shall have any obligations, duties or liabilities in connection with any portion of the items described in the definition of “Property” herein, either prior to or after obtaining title to such Property, whether by foreclosure sale, the granting of a deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise, and (iii) Mortgagee may, at any time prior to or after the acquisition of title to any portion of the Property as above described, advise any party in writing as to the extent of Mortgagee’s interest therein and/or expressly disaffirm in writing any rights, interests, obligations, duties and/or liabilities with respect to such Property or matters related thereto. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that Mortgagee shall have no obligations, duties or liabilities prior to or after acquisition of title to any portion of the Property, as lessee under any lease or purchaser or seller under any contract or option unless Mortgagee elects otherwise by written notification.

          Section 2.4. Authorization to File Financing Statements; Power of Attorney.

To the extent permitted by law, Mortgagor hereby ratifies all acts said attorney-in-fact shall lawfully do, have done in the past or cause to be done in the future by virtue hereof. This power of attorney is a power coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable.

in any respect, either orally or in writing, and Mortgagor hereby assigns to Mortgagee, as further security for the payment of the Secured Indebtedness and for the performance and observance of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Mortgage and the Loan Agreement, all of the rights, privileges and prerogatives of Mortgagor, which rights, privileges and prerogatives may be exercised by Mortgagee upon a Default, as tenant under the Ground Lease, to surrender the leasehold estate created by the Ground Lease or to terminate, cancel, modify, change, supplement, alter or amend the Ground Lease, which consent, in the case of a change, supplement, modification, alteration or amendment, shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and any such surrender of the leasehold estate created by the Ground Lease or termination, cancellation, modification, change, supplement, alteration or amendment of the Ground Lease without the prior consent of Mortgagee shall be void and of no force and effect. If Mortgagor shall default in the performance or observance of any term, covenant or condition of the Ground Lease on the part of Mortgagor, as tenant thereunder, to be performed or observed, and such default shall remain uncured after the expiration of any applicable cure or grace period, then, without limiting the generality of the other provisions of this Mortgage and the Loan Agreement, and without waiving or releasing Mortgagor from any of its obligations hereunder or thereunder, Mortgagee shall have the right, but shall be under no obligation, to pay any sums and to perform any act or take any action as may be appropriate to cause all of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Ground Lease on the part of Mortgagor, as tenant thereunder, to be performed or observed or to be promptly performed or observed on behalf of Mortgagor, to the end that the rights of Mortgagor in, to and under the Ground Lease shall be kept unimpaired and free from default. If Mortgagee shall make any payment or perform any act or take action in accordance with the preceding sentence, Mortgagee will notify Mortgagor of the making of any such payment, the performance of any such act, or the taking of any such action. In any such event, subject to the rights of tenants, subtenants and other occupants under the Leases, Mortgagee and any person designated by Mortgagee shall have, and are hereby granted, the right to enter upon the Property at any time and from time to time after such default by Mortgagor, which remains uncured after the expiration of any applicable cure or grace period, for the purpose of taking any such action. Mortgagee may pay and expend such sums of money as Mortgagee deems reasonably necessary for any such purpose and upon so doing shall be subrogated to any and all rights of the Ground Lessor. Mortgagor hereby agrees to pay to Mortgagee immediately upon demand therefor, all such sums so paid and expended by Mortgagee, together with interest thereon from the day of such demand at the Default Rate. All sums so paid and expended by Mortgagee and the interest thereon shall be secured by the legal operation and effect of this Mortgage. If the Ground Lessor shall deliver to Mortgagee a copy of any notice of default sent by said Ground Lessor to Mortgagor, as tenant under the Ground Lease, such notice shall constitute full protection to Mortgagee for any action taken or omitted to be taken by Mortgagee, in good faith, in reliance thereon. Mortgagor will not subordinate or consent to the subordination of the Ground Lease to any mortgage, security deed, lease or other interest on or in the Ground Lessor’s interest in all or any part of the Property, unless, in each such case, the written consent of Mortgagee shall have been first had and obtained..

          Section 2.6. No Merger of Fee and Leasehold Estates. So long as any portion of the Secured Indebtedness shall remain unpaid, unless Mortgagee shall otherwise consent, the fee title to the Ground Lease Parcels and the leasehold estate therein created pursuant to the provisions of the Ground Lease shall not merge but shall always be kept separate and distinct, notwithstanding the union of such estates in Mortgagor, Mortgagee, or in any other person by purchase, operation

20


of law or otherwise. Mortgagee reserves the right, at any time, to release portions of the Property, including, but not limited to, all of any part of the leasehold estate created by the Ground Lease, with or without consideration, at Mortgagee’s election, without waiving or affecting any of its rights hereunder or under the Note or the other Loan Documents and any such release shall not affect Mortgagee’s rights in connection with the portion of the Property not so released.

          Section 2.7. Mortgagor’s Acquisition of Fee Estate. In the event that Mortgagor, so long as any portion of the Secured Indebtedness remains unpaid, shall be the owner and holder of the fee title to all or any portion of the Ground Lease Parcels, the lien of the Mortgage shall be spread to cover Mortgagor’s fee title to such of the Ground Lease Parcels and said fee title shall be deemed to be included in the Property without any further action. Mortgagor agrees, at its sole cost and expense, including without limitation Mortgagee’s reasonable attorneys’ fees, to (a) execute any and all documents or instruments necessary to subject its fee title to the Property to the lien of this Mortgage; and (b) provide a title insurance policy which shall insure that the lien of the Mortgage is a first lien on Mortgagor’s fee title to the Property. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Ground Lease is for any reason whatsoever terminated prior to the natural expiration of its term, and if, pursuant to any provisions of the Ground Lease or otherwise, Mortgagee or its designee shall acquire from the Ground Lessor thereunder another lease of the Property, Mortgagor shall have no right, title or interest in or to such other lease or the leasehold estate created thereby.

          Section 2.8. Rejection of the Ground Lease.

               (a) If the Ground Lease is terminated for any reason in the event of the rejection or disaffirmance of the Ground Lease pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code, or any other law affecting creditor’s rights, (i) Mortgagor, immediately after obtaining notice thereof, shall give notice thereto to Mortgagee, (ii) Mortgagor, without the prior written consent of Mortgagee, shall not elect to treat the Ground Lease as terminated pursuant to Section 365(h) of the Bankruptcy Code or any comparable federal or state statute or law, and any election by Mortgagor made without such consent shall be void and (iii) this Mortgage and the Loan Agreement and all the liens, terms, covenants and conditions of this Mortgage and the Loan Agreement hereby extends to and covers Mortgagor’s possessory rights under Section 365(h) of the Bankruptcy Code and to any claim for damages due to the rejection of the Ground Lease or other termination of the Ground Lease. In addition, Mortgagor hereby assigns irrevocably to Mortgagee Mortgagor’s rights to treat the Ground Lease as terminated pursuant to Section 365(h) of the Bankruptcy Code and to offset rents under such Ground Lease in the event any case, proceeding or other action is commenced by or against the Ground Lessor under the Bankruptcy Code or any comparable federal” or state statute or law.

               (b) Mortgagor hereby assigns to Mortgagee (i) Mortgagor’s right to reject the Ground Lease under Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code or any comparable federal or state statute or law with respect to any case, proceeding or other action commenced by or against Mortgagor under the Bankruptcy Code or comparable federal or state statute or law and (ii) Mortgagor’s right to seek an extension of the sixty (60)-day period within which Mortgagor must accept or reject the Ground Lease under Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code or any comparable federal or state statute or law with respect to any case, proceeding or other action commenced by or against

21


Mortgagor under the Bankruptcy Code or comparable federal or state statute or law. Further, if the foregoing assignment is not effective under applicable law and Mortgagor shall desire to so reject the Ground Lease, at Mortgagee’s request, Mortgagor shall assign its interest in the Ground Lease to Mortgagee in lieu of rejecting the Ground Lease, upon receipt by Mortgagor of notice from Mortgagee of such request together with Mortgagee’s agreement to cure any existing defaults of Mortgagor under the Ground Lease.

               (c) Mortgagor hereby agrees that if the Ground Lease is terminated for any reason in the event of the rejection or disaffirmance of the Ground Lease pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code or any other law affecting creditor’s rights, any property not removed by Mortgagor as permitted or required by the Ground Lease, shall at the option of Mortgagee be deemed abandoned by Mortgagor, provided that Mortgagee may remove any such property required to be removed by Mortgagor pursuant to the Ground Lease and all costs and expenses associated with such removal shall be paid by Mortgagor within five (5) days of receipt by Mortgagor of an invoice for such removal costs and expenses.

ARTICLE 3

Assignment of Rents and Leases

          Section 3.1. Assignment. Mortgagor hereby assigns to Mortgagee all Rents (hereinafter defined) and all of Mortgagor’s rights in and under all Leases (hereinafter defined). So long as no Default (hereinafter defined) has occurred, Mortgagor shall have a license (which license shall terminate automatically and without further notice upon the occurrence of a Default) to collect, but not prior to accrual, the Rents under the Leases and, where applicable, subleases, such Rents to be held in trust for Mortgagee, and to otherwise deal with all Leases as permitted by this Mortgage. Each month, provided no Default has occurred, Mortgagor may retain such Rents as were collected that month and held in trust for Mortgagee; provided, however, that all Rents collected by Mortgagor shall be applied solely to the ordinary and necessary expenses of owning and operating the Property or paid to Mortgagee. Upon the revocation of such license, all Rents shall be paid directly to Mortgagee and not through Mortgagor, all without the necessity of any further action by Mortgagee, including, without limitation, any action to obtain possession of the Land, Improvements or any other portion of the Property or any action for the appointment of a receiver. Mortgagor hereby authorizes and directs the tenants under the Leases to pay Rents to Mortgagee upon written demand by Mortgagee, without further consent of Mortgagor, without any obligation of such tenants to determine whether a Default has in fact occurred and regardless of whether Mortgagee has taken possession of any portion of the Property, and the tenants may rely upon any written statement delivered by Mortgagee to the tenants. Any such payments to Mortgagee shall constitute payments to Mortgagor under the Leases, and Mortgagor hereby irrevocably appoints Mortgagee as its attorney-in-fact to do all things, after a Default, which Mortgagor might otherwise do with respect to the Property and the Leases thereon, including, without limitation, (i) collecting Rents with or without suit and applying the same, less expenses of collection, to any of the obligations secured hereunder or to expenses of operating and maintaining the Property (including reasonable reserves for anticipated expenses), at the option of Mortgagee, all in such manner as may be determined by Mortgagee, or at the option of Mortgagee, holding the same as security for

22


the payment of the Secured Indebtedness, (ii) leasing, in the name of Mortgagor, the whole or any part of the Property which may become vacant, and (iii) employing agents therefor and paying such agents reasonable compensation for their services. The curing of such Default, unless other Defaults also then exist, shall entitle Mortgagor to recover its aforesaid license to do any such things which Mortgagor might otherwise do with respect to the Property and the Leases thereon and to again collect such Rents. The powers and rights granted in this paragraph shall be in addition to the other remedies herein provided for upon the occurrence of a Default and may be exercised independently of or concurrently with any of said remedies. Nothing in the foregoing shall be construed to impose any obligation upon Mortgagee to exercise any power or right granted in this paragraph or to assume any liability under any Lease of any part of the Property and no liability shall attach to Mortgagee for failure or inability to collect any Rents under any such Lease. The assignment contained in this Section shall become null and void upon the release of this Mortgage. As used herein: (i) “Lease” means each existing or future lease, sublease (to the extent of Mortgagor’s rights thereunder) or other agreement under the terms of which any person has or acquires any right to occupy or use the Property, or any part thereof, or interest therein, and each existing or future guaranty of payment or performance thereunder, and all extensions, renewals, modifications and replacements of each such lease, sublease, agreement or guaranty; and (ii) “Rents” means all of the rents, revenue, income, profits and proceeds derived and to be derived from the Property or arising from the use or enjoyment of any portion thereof or from any Lease, including but not limited to the proceeds from any negotiated lease termination or buyout of such Lease, liquidated damages following default under any such Lease, all proceeds payable under any policy of insurance covering loss of rents resulting from untenantability caused by damage to any part of the Property, all of Mortgagor’s rights to recover monetary amounts from any tenant in bankruptcy including, without limitation, rights of recovery for use and occupancy and damage claims arising out of Lease defaults, including rejections, under any applicable Debtor Relief Law (hereinafter defined), together with any sums of money that may now or at any time hereafter be or become due and payable to Mortgagor by virtue of any and all royalties, overriding royalties, bonuses, delay rentals and any other amount of any kind or character arising under any and all present and all future oil, gas, mineral and mining leases covering the Property or any part thereof, and all proceeds and other amounts paid or owing to Mortgagor under or pursuant to any and all contracts and bonds relating to the construction or renovation of the Property.

          Section 3.2. Covenants, Representations and Warranties Concerning Leases and Rents. Mortgagor covenants, represents and warrants that: (a) Mortgagor has good title to, and is the owner of the entire landlord’s interest in, the Leases and Rents hereby assigned and authority to assign them; (b) all Leases are valid and enforceable, and in full force and effect, and are unmodified except as stated therein; (c) neither Mortgagor nor any tenant in the Property is in default under its Lease (and no event has occurred which with the passage of time or notice or both would result in a default under its Lease) or is the subject of any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding; (d) unless otherwise stated in a Permitted Encumbrance, no Rents or Leases have been or will be assigned, mortgaged, pledged or otherwise encumbered and no other person has or will acquire any right, title or interest in such Rents or Leases; (e) no Rents have been waived, released, discounted, set off or compromised; (f) except as stated in the Leases, Mortgagor has not received any funds or deposits from any tenant for which credit has not already been made on account of accrued Rents; (g) Mortgagor shall perform all of its obligations under the Leases and enforce the tenants’ obligations under the Leases to the extent

23


enforcement is prudent under the circumstances; (h) Mortgagor will not without the prior written consent of Mortgagee, enter into any Lease after the date hereof except in accordance with the terms of Exhibit I to the Loan Agreement, or waive, release, discount, set off, compromise, reduce or defer any Rent, receive or collect Rents more than one (1) month in advance, grant any rent-free period to any tenant (except in accordance with the terms of Exhibit I to the Loan Agreement), reduce any Lease term or waive, release or otherwise modify any other material obligation under any Lease, renew or extend any Lease except in accordance with the terms of Exhibit I to the Loan Agreement or in accordance with a right of the tenant thereto in such Lease, approve or consent to an assignment of a Lease or a subletting of any part of the premises covered by a Lease (except with respect to leases of 5,000 square feet of rentable space or less), or settle or compromise any claim against a tenant under a Lease in bankruptcy or otherwise (except with respect to leases of 5,000 square feet of rentable space or less); (i) Mortgagor will not, without the prior written consent of Mortgagee, terminate or consent to the cancellation or surrender of any Lease having an unexpired term of one (1) year or more unless promptly after the cancellation or surrender a new Lease of such premises is made with a new tenant having a credit standing that is satisfactory to Mortgagee, in Mortgagee’s judgment, on terms not materially less favorable to lessor than the terms of the terminated or cancelled Lease; (j) Mortgagor will not execute any Lease except in accordance with the Loan Documents and for actual occupancy by the tenant thereunder; (k) Mortgagor shall give prompt notice to Mortgagee, as soon as Mortgagor first obtains notice, of any claim, or the commencement of any action, by any tenant or subtenant under or with respect to a Lease regarding any claimed damage, default, diminution of or offset against Rent, cancellation of the Lease, or constructive eviction, excluding, however, notices of default under residential Leases, and Mortgagor shall defend, at Mortgagor’s expense, any proceeding pertaining to any Lease, including, if Mortgagee so requests, any such proceeding to which Mortgagee is a party; (l) Mortgagor shall as often as requested by Mortgagee, within ten (10) days of each request, deliver to Mortgagee a complete rent roll of the Property in such detail as Mortgagee may require and financial statements of the tenants, subtenants and guarantors under the Leases to the extent available to Mortgagor, and deliver to such of the tenants and others obligated under the Leases specified by Mortgagee written notice of the assignment in Section 3.1 hereof in form and content satisfactory to Mortgagee; (m) promptly upon request by Mortgagee, Mortgagor shall deliver to Mortgagee executed originals of all Leases and copies of all records in its possession or control relating thereto; (n) there shall be no merger of the leasehold estates, created by the Leases, with the fee estate of the Land without the prior written consent of Mortgagee; and (o) Mortgagee may at any time and from time to time by specific written instrument intended for the purpose, unilaterally subordinate the lien of this Mortgage to any Lease, without joinder or consent of, or notice to, Mortgagor, any tenant or any other person, and notice is hereby given to each tenant under a Lease of such right to subordinate. No such subordination shall constitute a subordination to any lien or other encumbrance, whenever arising, or improve the right of any junior lien Mortgagee; and nothing herein shall be construed as subordinating this Mortgage to any Lease.

          Section 3.3. Estoppel Certificates. All Leases executed after the date hereof shall require the tenant to execute and deliver to Mortgagee an estoppel certificate in form and substance acceptable to Mortgagee not more than thirty (30) days after notice from Mortgagee.

          Section 3.4. No Liability of Mortgagee. Mortgagee’s acceptance of this assignment shall not be deemed to constitute Mortgagee a “mortgagee in possession,” nor obligate

24


Mortgagee to appear in or defend any proceeding relating to any Lease or to the Property, or to take any action hereunder, expend any money, incur any expenses, or perform any obligation or liability under any Lease, or assume any obligation for any deposit delivered to Mortgagor by any tenant and not as such delivered to and accepted by Mortgagee. Mortgagee shall not be liable for any injury or damage to person or property in or about the Property, or for Mortgagee’s failure to collect or to exercise diligence in collecting Rents, but shall be accountable only for Rents that it shall actually receive. Neither the assignment of Leases and Rents nor enforcement of Mortgagee’s rights regarding Leases and Rents (including collection of Rents) nor possession of the Property by Mortgagee nor Mortgagee’s consent to or approval of any Lease (nor all of the same), shall render Mortgagee liable on any obligation under or with respect to any Lease or constitute affirmation of, or any subordination to, any Lease, occupancy, use or option.

          If Mortgagee seeks or obtains any judicial relief regarding Rents or Leases, the same shall in no way prevent the concurrent or subsequent employment of any other appropriate rights or remedies nor shall same constitute an election of judicial relief for any foreclosure or any other purpose. Mortgagee neither has nor assumes any obligations as lessor or landlord with respect to any Lease. The rights of Mortgagee under this Article 3 shall be cumulative of all other rights of Mortgagee under the Loan Documents or otherwise.

          Reference is hereby made to Section 291-f of the Real Property Law of the State of New York for the purpose of obtaining for Mortgagee the benefits of said Section in connection herewith.

          Section 4.2. Notice and Cure. If any provision of this Mortgage or any other Loan Document provides for Mortgagee to give to Mortgagor any notice regarding a default or incipient default, then if Mortgagee shall fail to give such notice to Mortgagor as provided, the sole and exclusive remedy of Mortgagor for such failure shall be to seek appropriate equitable relief to enforce the agreement to give such notice and to have any acceleration of the maturity of the Note and the Secured Indebtedness postponed or revoked and foreclosure proceedings in connection therewith delayed or terminated pending or upon the curing of such default in the manner and during the period of time permitted by such agreement, if any, and Mortgagor shall have no right to damages or any other type of relief not herein specifically set out against Mortgagee, all of which damages or other relief are hereby waived by Mortgagor. Nothing herein or in any other Loan Document shall operate or be construed to add on or make cumulative any cure or grace periods specified in any of the Loan Documents.

ARTICLE 5

Remedies

          Section 5.1. Certain Remedies. If a Default shall occur, Mortgagee may (but shall have no obligation to) exercise any one or more of the following remedies, without notice (unless notice is required by applicable statute):

               (a) Acceleration. Mortgagee may at any time and from time to time declare any or all of the Secured Indebtedness immediately due and payable and may terminate any and all Swap Transactions. Upon any such declaration, such Secured Indebtedness shall thereupon be immediately due and payable, and such Swap Transactions shall immediately terminate, without presentment, demand, protest, notice of protest, notice of acceleration or of intention to accelerate or any other notice or declaration of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by Mortgagor. Without limitation of the foregoing, upon the occurrence of a default described in clauses (A), (C) or (D) of subparagraph (i) of paragraph (d) of Section 4.1, hereof, all of the Secured Indebtedness shall thereupon be immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest, notice of protest, declaration or notice of acceleration or intention to accelerate, or any other notice, declaration or act of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by Mortgagor.

               (b) Enforcement of Assignment of Rents. In addition to the rights of Mortgagee under Article 3 hereof, prior or subsequent to taking possession of any portion of the Property or taking any action with respect to such possession, Mortgagee may: (1) collect and/or sue for the Rents in Mortgagee’s own name, give receipts and releases therefor, and after deducting all expenses of collection, including attorneys’ fees and expenses, apply the net proceeds thereof to the Secured Indebtedness in such manner and order as Mortgagee may elect and/or to the operation and management of the Property, including the payment of management, brokerage and attorney’s fees and expenses; and (2) require Mortgagor to transfer all security deposits and records thereof to Mortgagee together with original counterparts of the Leases.

30


               (c) Mortgagee’s Right to Enter and Take Possession, Operate and Apply Income.

 

 

 

          (i) Mortgagee may demand that Mortgagor surrender the actual possession of the Property and upon such demand, Mortgagor shall forthwith surrender same to Mortgagee and, to the extent permitted by law, Mortgagee itself, or by such officers or agents as it may appoint, may enter and take possession of all of the Property and may exclude Mortgagor and its agents and employees wholly therefrom.

 

 

 

          (ii) If Mortgagor shall for any reason fail to surrender or deliver the Property or any part thereof after Mortgagee’s demand, Mortgagee may obtain a judgment or order conferring on Mortgagee the right to immediate possession or requiring Mortgagor to deliver immediate possession to Mortgagee, to the entry of which judgment or decree Mortgagor hereby specifically consents.

 

 

 

          (iii) Mortgagee may from time to time: (A) continue and complete construction of, hold, store, use, operate, manage and control the Property and conduct the business thereof; (B) make all reasonably necessary maintenance, repairs, renewals, replacements, additions, betterments and improvements thereto and thereon and purchase or otherwise acquire additional personal property; (C) insure or keep the Property insured; (D) exercise all the rights and powers of Mortgagor in its name or otherwise with respect to the same; and (E) enter into agreements with others (including, without limitation, new Leases or amendments, extensions, or cancellations to existing Leases) all as Mortgagee from time to time may determine in its sole discretion. Mortgagor hereby constitutes and irrevocably appoints Mortgagee its true and lawful attorney-in-fact, which appointment is coupled with an interest, with full power of substitution, and empowers said attorney or attorneys in the name of Mortgagor, but at the option of said attorney-in-fact, to do any and all acts and execute any and all agreements that Mortgagee may deem necessary or proper to implement and perform any and all of the foregoing.

               (d) Uniform Commercial Code. Mortgagee may exercise any or all of its rights and remedies under the Uniform Commercial Code as adopted by the State of New York as in effect from time to time, (or under the Uniform Commercial Code in force from time to time in any other state to the extent the same is applicable law) or other applicable law as well as all other rights and remedies possessed by Mortgagee, all of which shall be cumulative. Mortgagee is hereby authorized and empowered to enter the Property or other place where the collateral may be located without legal process, and to take possession of such personal property without notice or demand, which hereby are waived to the maximum extent permitted by the laws of the State of New York. Upon demand by Mortgagee, Mortgagor shall make such personal property available to Mortgagee at a place reasonably convenient to Mortgagee. Mortgagee may proceed under the Uniform Commercial Code as to all or any part of such personal property, and in conjunction therewith may exercise all of the rights, remedies and powers of a secured creditor under the Uniform Commercial Code. Any notification required by the Uniform Commercial Code shall be deemed reasonably and properly given if sent in accordance with the Notice provisions of this Mortgage at least ten (10) days before any sale or other disposition of such personal property. Mortgagee may choose to dispose of some or all of the property, in any combination consisting of both personal property and Property, in one or more public or private sales to be held in accordance with the Law and procedures applicable to real property, as

31


permitted by Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code. Mortgagor agrees that such a sale of such personal property together with Property constitutes a commercially reasonable sale of such personal property.

               (e) Lawsuits. Mortgagee may proceed by a suit or suits in equity or at law, whether for collection of the indebtedness secured hereby, the specific performance of any covenant or agreement herein contained or in aid of the execution of any power herein granted, or for any foreclosure hereunder or for the sale of the Property under the judgment or decree of any court or courts of competent jurisdiction. Mortgagor hereby assents to the passage of a decree for the sale of the Property by any equity court having jurisdiction.

               (f) Foreclosure. Mortgagee may:

 

 

 

          (1) sell the Mortgaged Property to the extent permitted and pursuant to the procedures provided by law (including, without limitation, in accordance with Article 14 of the New York Real Property Actions and Proceedings Law, regarding which Mortgagor hereby consents and agrees that notices thereunder (including notices of sale) may be given to Mortgagor in any of the manners specified for the giving of notices set forth in Section 6.13, and all estate, right, title and interest, claim and demand thereof, at one (1) or more sales as an entity or in parcels or parts, and at such time and place upon such terms and after such notice thereof as may be required or permitted by law; or

 

 

 

          (2) institute proceedings for the complete or partial foreclosure hereof; or

 

 

 

          (3) take such steps to protect and enforce its rights whether by action, suit or proceeding in equity or at law for the specific performance of any covenant, condition or agreement in the Note, the Loan Agreement or herein, or in aid of the execution of any power herein granted, or for any foreclosure hereunder, or for the enforcement of any other appropriate legal or equitable remedy or otherwise as Mortgagee shall elect.

          Any sale made hereunder may be as an entirety or in such parcels as Mortgagee may request. To the extent permitted by applicable law, any sale may be adjourned by announcement at the time and place appointed for such sale without further notice except as may be required by law. If the proceeds of such sale of less than the whole of the Property shall be less than the aggregate of the Secured Indebtedness, this Mortgage and the lien hereof shall remain in full force and effect as to the unsold portion of the Property just as though no sale had been made and the rights of Mortgagee to foreclose hereunder shall also apply to any future sales. A sale may cover not only the Property but also personal property and other interests which are a part of the Property, or any part thereof, as a unit and as a part of a single sale, or the sale may be of any part of the Property separately from the remainder of the Property. After each sale, Mortgagee shall make to the purchaser or purchasers at such sale good and sufficient conveyances, conveying the property so sold to the purchaser or purchasers in fee simple, subject to the Permitted Encumbrances (and to such leases and other matters, if any), and shall receive the proceeds of said sale or sales and apply the same as herein provided. In the event any sale hereunder is not completed or is defective in the opinion of Mortgagee, such sale shall not exhaust the rights hereunder and Mortgagee shall have the right to cause a subsequent sale or sales to be made hereunder. Any and all statements of fact or other recitals made in any deed or

32


deeds or other conveyances given by Mortgagee as to nonpayment of the Secured Indebtedness or as to the occurrence of any default, or as to Mortgagee’s having declared all of said indebtedness to be due and payable, or as to the request to sell, or as to notice of time, place and terms of sale and the properties to be sold having been duly given, or as to any other act or thing having been duly done by Mortgagee shall be taken as prima facie evidence of the truth of the facts so stated and recited.

               (g) Receiver. Mortgagee may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction to have a receiver appointed to enter upon and take possession of the Property, collect the Rents therefrom and apply the same as the court may direct, such receiver to have all of the rights and powers permitted under the laws of the State of New York. To the extent permitted by law, the right of the appointment of such receiver shall be a matter of strict right without regard to the value or the occupancy of the Property or the solvency or insolvency of Mortgagor. The expenses, including receiver’s fees, attorneys’ fees, costs and agent’s commission incurred pursuant to the powers herein contained, together with interest thereon at the default rate under the Note, shall be secured hereby and shall be due and payable by Mortgagor immediately without notice or demand. Notwithstanding the appointment of any receiver or other custodian, Mortgagee shall be entitled as pledgee to the possession and control of any cash or deposits at the time held by, payable, or deliverable under the terms of this Mortgage to Mortgagee, and Mortgagee shall have the right to offset the unpaid Secured Indebtedness against any such cash or deposits in such order as Mortgagee may elect.

               (h) Termination of Commitment to Lend. Mortgagee may terminate any commitment or obligation to lend or disburse funds under any Loan Document or enter into any other credit arrangement to or for the benefit of Mortgagor.

               (i) Other Rights and Remedies. Mortgagee may exercise any and all other rights and remedies which Mortgagee may have under the Loan Documents, or at law or in equity or otherwise.

          Section 5.2. Application of Proceeds. Unless otherwise provided by applicable Law, all proceeds from the sale of the Property or any part thereof pursuant to the rights and remedies set forth in this Article 5 and any other proceeds received by Mortgagee from the exercise of any of its other rights and remedies hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall be applied first to pay all Expenses and next in reduction of the other Secured Indebtedness, in such manner and order as Mortgagee may elect.

          Section 5.3. Remedies Cumulative and Concurrent. No right, power or remedy of Mortgagee as provided in the Note, this Mortgage, or the other Loan Documents is intended to be exclusive of any other right, power, or remedy of Mortgagee, but each and every such right, power and remedy shall be cumulative and concurrent and in addition to any other right, power or remedy available to Mortgagee now or hereafter existing at law or in equity and may be pursued separately, successively or together against Mortgagor, or any endorser, co-maker, surety or guarantor of the Secured Indebtedness, or the Property or any part thereof, or any one or more of them, at the sole discretion of Mortgagee. The failure of Mortgagee to exercise any such right, power or remedy shall in no event be construed as a waiver or release thereof.

33


          Section 5.4. Waiver, Delay or Omission. No waiver of any Default hereunder shall extend to or affect any subsequent or any other Default then existing, or impair any rights, powers or remedies consequent thereon, and no delay or omission of Mortgagee to exercise any right, power or remedy shall be construed to waive any such Default or to constitute acquiescence therein.

          Section 5.5. Credit of Mortgagee. To the maximum extent permitted by the laws of the State of New York, upon any sale made under or by virtue of this Article, Mortgagee may bid for and acquire the Property, or any part thereof, and in lieu of paying cash therefor may apply to the purchase price, any portion of or all of the unpaid Secured Indebtedness in such order as Mortgagee may elect.

          Section 5.6. Sale. Any sale or sales made under or by virtue of this Article shall operate to divest all the estate, right, title, interest, claim and demand whatsoever at law or in equity, of Mortgagor and all persons, except tenants pursuant to Leases approved by Mortgagee, claiming by, through or under Mortgagor in and to the properties and rights so sold, whether sold to Mortgagee or to others.

          Section 5.7. Proofs of Claim. In the case of any receivership, insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition, seizure of the Property by any Governmental Authority, or other judicial proceedings affecting Mortgagor, any endorser, co-maker, surety, or guarantor of the Secured Indebtedness, or any of their respective properties, Mortgagee, to the extent permitted by law, shall be entitled to file such proofs of claim and other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have its claim allowed in such proceedings for the entire unpaid Secured Indebtedness at the date of the institution of such proceedings, and for any additional amounts which may become due and payable after such date.

          Section 5.8. Waiver of Redemption, Notice, Marshalling, Etc. Mortgagor hereby waives and releases, for itself and anyone claiming through, by, or under it, to the maximum extent permitted by the laws of the State of New York:

 

 

 

          (i) all benefit that might accrue to Mortgagor by virtue of any present or future law exempting the Property, or any part of the proceeds arising from any sale thereof, from attachment, levy or sale on execution, or providing for any appraisement, valuation, stay of execution, exemption from civil process, redemption or extension of time for payment,

 

 

 

          (ii) unless specifically required herein, all notices of default, or Mortgagee’s actual exercise of any option or remedy under the Loan Documents, or otherwise, and

 

 

 

          (iii) any right to have the Property marshaled.

          Section 5.9. Discontinuance of Proceedings. If Mortgagee shall have proceeded to enforce any right under any Loan Document and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, then except as may be provided in any written agreement between Mortgagor and Mortgagee providing for the discontinuance or abandonment of such proceedings, Mortgagor and Mortgagee shall be restored to their former positions and the rights, remedies and powers of Mortgagee shall continue as if no such proceedings had been instituted.

34


          Section 5.10. Mortgagee’s Actions. Mortgagee may, at any time without notice to any person and without consideration, do or refrain from doing any or all of the following actions, and neither Mortgagor, any endorser, co-maker, surety or guarantor of the Secured Indebtedness, nor any other person (hereinafter in this Section collectively referred to as the “Obligor”) now or hereafter liable for the payment and performance of the Secured Indebtedness shall be relieved from the payment and performance thereof, unless specifically released in writing by Mortgagee: (a) renew, extend or modify the terms of the Note, this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents, or any of them; (b) forbear or extend the time for the payment or performance of any or all of the Secured Indebtedness; (c) apply payments by any Obligor to the reduction of the unpaid Secured Indebtedness in such manner, in such amounts, and at such times and in such order and priority as Mortgagee may see fit; (d) release any Obligor; (e) substitute or release in whole or in part the Property or any other collateral or any portion thereof now or hereafter held as security for the Secured Indebtedness without affecting, disturbing or impairing in any manner whatsoever the validity and priority of the lien of this Mortgage upon the Property which is not released or substituted, or the validity and priority of any security interest of Mortgagee in such other collateral which is not released or substituted; (f) subordinate the lien of this Mortgage or the lien of any other security interest in any other collateral now or hereafter held as security for the Secured Indebtedness; (g) join in the execution of a plat or replat of the Land (provided, however, notwithstanding the foregoing, Mortgagee will join in such plat or replat of the Land so long as such plat or replat is acceptable to Mortgagee); (h) join in and consent to the filing of a declaration of condominium or declaration of restrictive covenants regarding all or any part of the Land; (i) consent to the granting of any easement on the Land; and (j) generally deal with any obligor or any other party as Mortgagee may see fit.

          Section 5.11. Other Remedies. Mortgagee shall have the right from time to time to protect, exercise and enforce any legal or equitable remedy against Mortgagor provided under the Loan Documents or by applicable Laws.

ARTICLE 6

Miscellaneous

          Section 6.1. Scope of Mortgage. This Mortgage is a Mortgage of both real and personal property, a security agreement, an assignment of rents and leases, a financing statement and fixture filing and a collateral assignment, and also covers proceeds and fixtures.

          Section 6.2. Effective as a Financing Statement. This Mortgage shall be effective as a financing statement filed as a fixture filing with respect to all fixtures included within the Property and is to be filed for record in the real estate records of each county where any part of the Property (including said fixtures) is situated. This Mortgage shall also be effective as a financing statement covering as-extracted collateral (including oil and gas), accounts and general intangibles under the New York Uniform Commercial Code, as in effect from time to time, and the Uniform Commercial Code, as in effect from time to time, in any other state where the Property is situated which will be financed at the wellhead or minehead of the wells or mines located on the Property and is to be filed for record in the real estate records of each county where any part of the Property is situated. This Mortgage shall also be effective as a financing

35


statement covering any other Property and may be filed in any other appropriate filing or recording office. The mailing address of Mortgagor and Mortgagee are set forth in the preamble of this Mortgage and the address of Mortgagee from which information concerning the security interests hereunder may be obtained is the address of Mortgagee set forth at the end of this Mortgage. A carbon, photographic or other reproduction of this Mortgage or of any financing statement relating to this Mortgage shall be sufficient as a financing statement for any of the purposes referred to in this Section.

          Section 6.3. Notice to Account Debtors. In addition to the rights granted elsewhere in this Mortgage, Mortgagee may at any time notify the account debtors or obligors of any accounts, chattel paper, general intangibles, negotiable instruments or other evidences of indebtedness included in the Collateral to pay Mortgagee directly.

          Section 6.4. Waiver by Mortgagee. Mortgagee may at any time and from time to time by a specific writing intended for the purpose: (a) waive compliance by Mortgagor with any covenant herein made by Mortgagor to the extent and in the manner specified in such writing; (b) consent to Mortgagor’s doing any act which hereunder Mortgagor is prohibited from doing, or to Mortgagor’s failing to do any act which hereunder Mortgagor is required to do, to the extent and in the manner specified in such writing; (c) release any part of the Property or any interest therein from the lien and security interest of this Mortgage, without the joinder of Mortgagee; or (d) release any party liable, either directly or indirectly, for the Secured Indebtedness or for any covenant herein or in any other Loan Document, without impairing or releasing the liability of any other party. No such act shall in any way affect the rights or powers of Mortgagee or Mortgagee hereunder except to the extent specifically agreed to by Mortgagee in such writing.

          Section 6.5. No Impairment of Security. The lien, security interest and other security rights of Mortgagee hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall not be impaired by any indulgence, moratorium or release granted by Mortgagee including, but not limited to, any renewal, extension or modification which Mortgagee may grant with respect to any Secured Indebtedness, or any surrender, compromise, release, renewal, extension, exchange or substitution which Mortgagee may grant in respect of the Property, or any part thereof or any interest therein, or any release or indulgence granted to any endorser, guarantor or surety of any Secured Indebtedness. The taking of additional security by Mortgagee shall not release or impair the lien, security interest or other security rights of Mortgagee hereunder or affect the liability of Mortgagor or of any endorser, guarantor or surety, or improve the right of any junior lien Mortgagee in the Property (without implying hereby Mortgagee’s consent to any junior lien).

          Section 6.6. Acts Not Constituting Waiver by Mortgagee. Mortgagee may waive any default without waiving any other prior or subsequent default. Mortgagee may remedy any default without waiving the default remedied. Neither failure by Mortgagee to exercise, nor delay by Mortgagee in exercising, nor discontinuance of the exercise of any right, power or remedy (including but not limited to the right to accelerate the maturity of the Secured Indebtedness or any part thereof) upon or after any default shall be construed as a waiver of such default or as a waiver of the right to exercise any such right, power or remedy at a later date. No single or partial exercise by Mortgagee of any right, power or remedy hereunder shall exhaust the same or shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof, and every such right, power or remedy hereunder may be exercised at any time and from time to time. No modification or

36


waiver of any provision hereof nor consent to any departure by Mortgagor therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Mortgagee and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance, for the purpose for which given and to the extent therein specified. No notice to nor demand on Mortgagor in any case shall of itself entitle Mortgagor to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. Remittances in payment of any part of the Secured 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 Mortgagee 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 practice of the collecting bank or banks. Acceptance by Mortgagee of any payment in an amount less than the amount then due on any Secured Indebtedness shall be deemed an acceptance on account only and shall not in any way excuse the existence of a default hereunder notwithstanding any notation on or accompanying such partial payment to the contrary.

          Section 6.7. Mortgagor’s Successors. If the ownership of the Property or any part thereof becomes vested in a person other than Mortgagor, Mortgagee may, without notice to Mortgagor, deal with such successor or successors in interest with reference to this Mortgage and to the Secured Indebtedness in the same manner as with Mortgagor, without in any way vitiating or discharging Mortgagor’s liability hereunder or for the payment of the indebtedness or performance of the obligations secured hereby. No transfer of the Property, no forbearance on the part of Mortgagee, and no extension of the time for the payment of the Secured Indebtedness given by Mortgagee shall operate to release, discharge, modify, change or affect, in whole or in part, the liability of Mortgagor hereunder for the payment of the indebtedness or performance of the obligations secured hereby or the liability of any other person hereunder for the payment of the indebtedness secured hereby. Each Mortgagor agrees that it shall be bound by any modification of this Mortgage or any of the other Loan Documents made by Mortgagee and any subsequent owner of the Property, with or without notice to such Mortgagor, and no such modifications shall impair the obligations of such Mortgagor under this Mortgage or any other Loan Document. Nothing in this Section or elsewhere in this Mortgage shall be construed to imply Mortgagee’s consent to any transfer of the Property.

          Section 6.8. Place of Payment. All Secured Indebtedness which may be owing hereunder at any time by Mortgagor shall be payable at the place designated in the Note (or if no such designation is made, at the address of Mortgagee indicated at the end of this Mortgage).

          Section 6.9. Subrogation to Existing Liens; Vendor’s Lien. To the extent that proceeds of the Note are used to pay indebtedness secured by any outstanding lien, security interest, charge or prior encumbrance against the Property, such proceeds have been advanced by Mortgagee at Mortgagor’s request, and Mortgagee shall be subrogated to any and all rights, security interests and liens owned by any owner or Mortgagee of such outstanding liens, security interests, charges or encumbrances, however remote, irrespective of whether said liens, security interests, charges or encumbrances are released, and all of the same are recognized as valid and subsisting and are renewed and continued and merged herein to secure the Secured Indebtedness, but the terms and provisions of this Mortgage shall govern and control the manner and terms of enforcement of the liens, security interests, charges and encumbrances to which Mortgagee is subrogated hereunder. It is expressly understood that, in consideration of the payment of such

37


indebtedness by Mortgagee, Mortgagor hereby waives and releases all demands and causes of action for offsets and payments in connection with the said indebtedness. If all or any portion of the proceeds of the loan evidenced by the Note or of any other secured indebtedness has been advanced for the purpose of paying the purchase price for all or a part of the Property, no vendor’s lien is waived; and Mortgagee shall have, and is hereby granted, a vendor’s lien on the Property as cumulative additional security for the secured indebtedness. Mortgagee may foreclose under this Mortgage or under the vendor’s lien without waiving the other or may foreclose under both.

          Section 6.10. Application of Payments to Certain Indebtedness. If any part of the Secured Indebtedness cannot be lawfully secured by this Mortgage or if any part of the Property cannot be lawfully subject to the lien and security interest hereof to the full extent of such indebtedness, then all payments made shall be applied on said indebtedness first in discharge of that portion thereof which is not secured by this Mortgage.

          Section 6.11. Nature of Loan; Compliance with Usury Laws. The loan evidenced by the Note is being made solely for the purpose of carrying on or acquiring a business or commercial enterprise. It is the intent of Mortgagor and Mortgagee and all other parties to the Loan Documents to conform to and contract in strict compliance with applicable usury law from time to time in effect. All agreements between Mortgagee and Mortgagor (or any other party liable with respect to any indebtedness under the Loan Documents) are hereby limited by the provisions of this Section which shall override and control all such agreements, whether now existing or hereafter arising. In no way, nor in any event or contingency (including but not limited to prepayment, default, demand for payment, or acceleration of the maturity of any obligation), shall the interest taken, reserved, contracted for, charged, chargeable, or received under this Mortgage, the Note or any other Loan Document or otherwise, exceed the maximum nonusurious amount permitted by applicable law (the “Maximum Amount”). If, from any possible construction of any document, interest would otherwise be payable in excess of the Maximum Amount, any such construction shall be subject to the provisions of this Section and such document shall ipso facto be automatically reformed and the interest payable shall be automatically reduced to the Maximum Amount, without the necessity of execution of any amendment or new document. If Mortgagee shall ever receive anything of value which is characterized as interest under applicable law and which would apart from this provision be in excess of the Maximum Amount, an amount equal to the amount which would have been excessive interest shall, without penalty, be applied to the reduction of the principal amount owing on the Secured Indebtedness in the inverse order of its maturity and not to the payment of interest, or refunded to Mortgagor or the other payor thereof if and to the extent such amount which would have been excessive exceeds such unpaid principal. The right to accelerate maturity of the Note or any other Secured Indebtedness does not include the right to accelerate any interest which has not otherwise accrued on the date of such acceleration, and Mortgagee does not intend to charge or receive any unearned interest in the event of acceleration. All interest paid or agreed to be paid to Mortgagee shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full stated term (including any renewal or extension) of such indebtedness so that the amount of interest on account of such indebtedness does not exceed the Maximum Amount. As used in this Section, the term “applicable law” shall mean the laws of the State of New York or the federal laws of the United

38


States applicable to this transaction, whichever laws allow the greater interest, as such laws now exist or may be changed or amended or come into effect in the future.

          Section 6.12. Releases.

               (a) Release of Mortgage. If all of the Secured Indebtedness is paid as the same becomes due and payable and all of the covenants, warranties, undertakings and agreements made in this Mortgage are kept and performed, and all Swap Transactions and all other obligations, if any, of Mortgagee for further advances have been terminated, then, and in that event only, all rights under this Mortgage shall terminate (except to the extent expressly provided herein with respect to indemnifications, representations and warranties and other rights which are to continue following the release hereof) and the Property shall become wholly clear of the liens, security interests, conveyances and assignments evidenced hereby, and such liens and security interests shall be released by Mortgagee in due form at Mortgagor’s cost. Without limitation, all provisions herein for indemnity of Mortgagee or Mortgagee shall survive discharge of the Secured Indebtedness, the termination of any and all Swap Transactions and any foreclosure, release or termination of this Mortgage.

               (b) Partial Releases; No Release in Default. Partial releases of the lien of this Mortgage shall be made in accordance with the terms and provisions of Exhibit C attached hereto and by this reference made a part hereof, or in accordance with such other terms and conditions as may subsequently be agreed to by Mortgagee. If no such Exhibit C is attached hereto, then there are no terms and provisions for partial releases, to which Mortgagee and Mortgagor have agreed at this time. In any event, no partial release shall be sought, requested or required if any Default has occurred which has not been cured.

               (c) Effect of Partial Release. Mortgagee may, regardless of consideration, cause the release of any part of the Property from the lien of this Mortgage without in any manner affecting or impairing the lien or priority of this Mortgage as to the remainder of the Property.

               (d) Release Fee. If permitted by applicable law Mortgagor shall pay to Mortgagee, at the time of each partial or complete release of the lien of this Mortgage, a release fee in the amount of $25.00 if the release instrument is delivered to Mortgagee for execution or $50.00, if Mortgagee is required to prepare the release instrument. In addition, Mortgagor shall pay to Mortgagee a fee in the amount of $25.00 for each other document or instrument which Mortgagor requires Mortgagee to execute.

          Section 6.13. Notices. All notices, requests, consents, demands and other communications required or which any party desires to give hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be in writing and, unless otherwise specifically provided in such other Loan Document, shall be deemed sufficiently given or furnished if delivered by personal delivery, by nationally recognized overnight courier service, or by registered or certified United States mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the party to whom directed at the addresses specified in this Mortgage (unless changed by similar notice in writing given by the particular party whose address is to be changed) or by facsimile. Any such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been given either at the time of personal delivery or, in the case of courier or mail, as of the date of first attempted delivery at the address and in the manner provided herein, or, in the case

39


of facsimile, upon receipt; provided that, service of a notice required by any applicable statute shall be considered complete when the requirements of that statute are met. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no notice of change of address shall be effective except upon receipt. This Section shall not be construed in any way to affect or impair any waiver of notice or demand provided in any Loan Document or to require giving of notice or demand to or upon any person in any situation or for any reason.

          Section 6.14. Invalidity of Certain Provisions.

Statement of Agreements

                    For good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, and as a material inducement to Lenders to extend credit to Borrower,


Guarantor hereby guarantees to Administrative Agent and Lenders the prompt and full payment and performance of the indebtedness and obligations described below in this Guaranty (collectively called the “Guaranteed Obligations”), this Guaranty being upon the following terms and conditions:

                    1. Guaranty of Payment. Guarantor hereby jointly and severally, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to Administrative Agent and Lenders the punctual payment when due, whether by lapse of time, by acceleration of maturity, or otherwise, of (a) all principal, interest (including interest accruing after the commencement of any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding by or against Borrower, whether or not allowed in such proceeding), fees, late charges, costs, expenses, indemnification indebtedness, and other sums of money now or hereafter due and owing, or which Borrower is obligated to pay, pursuant to the terms of the Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage, the Environmental Agreement, any application, agreement, note or other document executed and delivered in connection with any Swap Contract or any other Loan Documents, including any indemnifications contained in the Loan Documents, now or hereafter existing, and all renewals, extensions, refinancings, modifications, supplements or amendments of such indebtedness, or any of the Loan Documents, or any part thereof, (b) payment by Borrower of all customary or necessary costs and expenses actually incurred by Borrower, Administrative Agent or Lenders in connection with the operation, maintenance and management of the Land and the Improvements, including, without limitation, condominium common charges and assessments, insurance premiums, taxes and assessments, payments in lieu of taxes, utilities, repair, replacement and all other maintenance costs and expenses, equipment lease payments, management fees, professional fees, accounting fees, salaries, fringe and other benefits due to all employees engaged in the operation, maintenance or management of the Land and the Improvements, payroll and related taxes and any and all other customary or necessary operating expenses, (c) any and all transfer taxes which may be due in connection with the foreclosure of the Mortgage or delivery of a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure of the Mortgage, (d) all legal and other costs or expenses paid or incurred by or on behalf of Administrative Agent and/or Lenders in the enforcement thereof or hereof, (e) all leasing commissions, tenant allowances and/or other amounts which Borrower is obligated to pay as landlord under any and all existing leases of the Property and under any and all future leases at the Property executed while Borrower owns the Property and (f) any loss, cost, damage or expense paid or incurred by or on behalf of Administrative Agent and Lenders by reason of (i) any fraud or material misrepresentation, (ii) taxes of any kind (whether characterized as transfer, gains or other taxes) payable in connection with the foreclosure sale of the Property, irrespective of who pays such taxes, (iii) application of any proceeds of the Loan to any purpose other than as provided in the Loan Documents (provided that Guarantor’s liability under this clause (iii) shall not apply to distributions made by Borrower more than thirty (30) days prior to a Default provided that such distributions are in the ordinary course of business and Borrower is solvent at the time of such distributions); (iv) the application of any insurance or condemnation proceeds or other funds or payments other than strictly in accordance with the Loan Documents, (v) the misapplication of any security deposits, (vi) rents, sales proceeds, or other sums received after default under the Loan Documents which are not applied to expenses of operating the Property or paid to Administrative Agent or a duly appointed receiver of the Property, (vii) any failure to deliver to Administrative Agent, after demand therefor, any agreements relating to the operation, management, leasing, use, occupancy or construction of the Property, (viii) any intentional physical waste in respect of the Property, (ix) any failure to pay or discharge any real estate tax,

2


other tax, assessment, fine, penalty or lien against the Property to the extent revenue from leases of the Property was available to pay same, (x) liability as landlord under any lease(s) relating to the Property which liability accrued prior to Administrative Agent’s or Lenders’ succeeding to such interest of Borrower, which Administrative Agent or Lenders is or becomes obligated for by virtue of Administrative Agent or Lenders succeeding to the interests of Borrower, (xi) any Insolvency Event (as hereinafter defined), (xii) any state of facts or circumstances which are contrary to the representations and warranties set forth in Section 31, (xiii) termination of the Ground Lease as a result of the exercise of any remedies by the holder of any present or future mortgage encumbering the fee interest on the property demised by the Ground Lease or (xiv) Lenders being required by any agreement entered into with a tenant of the Property to release any insurance and/or condemnation award proceeds as to which Borrower is not entitled to have applied to restoration of the Property pursuant to Sections 2.1(d), 2.1(e) and/or 2.1(g), as applicable of each Mortgage (the indebtedness described above in this Section 1 is herein collectively called the “Indebtedness”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) Guarantor’s aggregate liability in respect of the principal amount of the Loan (the “Principal Liability”) shall be limited to the PL Amount as defined below (the limitation in this proviso being herein referred to as the “Principal Liability Limitation”) and (B) Guarantor’s liability in respect of interest, fees, penalties and late charges and in respect of clause (b) above shall be equal to the aggregate amount of all such amounts accrued and unpaid as of the Determination Date (as hereinafter defined), provided that (x) in no event shall the Principal Liability Limitation in the foregoing proviso affect Guarantor’s liability hereunder as to all interest, fees, penalties, late charges and any other amounts (other than principal) due under the Loan Documents and any amounts due and owing pursuant to clauses (b), (c), (d), (e) and (f) above (collectively, “Guarantor’s Non-Principal Liability”) and (y) the effectiveness or continuing effectiveness of the Principal Liability Limitation shall be conditioned on the absence of any Insolvency Event, it being understood and agreed that if said condition is not continuously satisfied Guarantor’s liability hereunder in respect of the entire principal amount of the Loan and all other amounts due under the Loan Documents shall be in full force and effect and the Principal Liability Limitation shall be void and of no force or effect. As used herein, the term “PL Amount” shall mean the sum of the Initial PL Amount (as hereinafter defined) and the Additional PL Amount (as hereinafter defined). The “Initial PL Amount” shall mean an amount equal to 25% of the outstanding principal balance of the Note on the date of demand for payment hereunder (which demand may not be made prior to the existence of an Default), provided, however, that if Administrative Agent reasonably determines that, as of the first day of any month, the Property has a Debt Service Coverage Ratio (as hereinafter defined) of at least 1.43 to 1.0, then, on the further condition that no Default then exists, the Initial PL Amount shall be reduced to zero. As used herein, the term “Additional PL Amount” shall mean an amount equal to the positive difference, if any, between (x) the Outstanding Principal Balance of the Note on the date of demand less (y) $31,700,000, but in no event less than zero.

                    As used herein, the term “Determination Date” shall mean the date which is the last to occur of:

                    (A) the date of payment in full of Guarantor’s Principal Liability and all other amounts due hereunder at the time of such payment, or

3



 

 

 

          (B) the date which is the earliest to occur of (1) the acceptance by Administrative Agent or Administrative Agent’s designee of the conveyance of the premises encumbered by the Mortgage by deed or assignment in lieu of foreclosure, or (2) the date upon which a sale (whether made under a power of sale, by virtue of a judicial proceeding or judgment or decree of foreclosure or sale or otherwise) of such mortgaged premises occurs as a result of enforcement of the Mortgage or (3) payment in full of Borrower’s obligations under the Note, Mortgage and Loan Agreement.

                    As used herein, the term “Insolvency Event” shall mean any voluntary or collusive involuntary filing of any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding by or against Borrower or Guarantor. As used herein, the term “Debt Service Coverage Ratio” means the ratio, as of any date of calculation, of (a) the Projected Net Operating Income to (b) the annual Debt Service Payments (as defined in the Loan Agreement). As used herein, the term “Projected Net Operating Income” means Projected Operating Income less the sum of (i) Adjusted Operating Expenses (as defined in the Loan Agreement) plus (ii) the Vacancy Loss Factor (as defined in the Loan Agreement). As used herein, the term “Projected Operating Income” means the aggregate rentals and all other revenue (unless excluded pursuant hereto) of the Property as projected by Administrative Agent for the ensuing twelve (12) month period from only executed bona fide leases, licenses and other occupancy agreements of the Property which are in full force and effect as to which the tenant thereunder is in occupancy and paying full base rent, is not the subject of any bankruptcy proceeding and is not in default under its lease, beyond any applicable notice or cure periods set forth therein. Projected Operating Income shall exclude all extraordinary items of income, all amounts paid to Borrower for tenant alterations in connection with the leasing of space at the Property, all amounts payable to Borrower under leases with affiliates of Borrower, as tenant, or with Borrower, as tenant (unless Administrative Agent otherwise agrees) and, with respect to any lease providing for a reduction in the rentals payable under such lease at any time during the term thereof, base rentals in excess of the lowest base rentals payable under such lease (other than during any period of rent concessions made with respect to consecutive monthly periods commencing with the first month of the term of such lease), but notwithstanding the preceding, including reimbursements for operating expenses and percentage rent pursuant to executed leases, provided a sales report is provided by the applicable tenant.

                    In the event of a foreclosure sale, Guarantor agrees that Guarantor’s Non-Principal Liability obligation hereunder shall not be reduced out of the proceeds of such sale except to the extent that such proceeds exceed the sum of (x) the unpaid principal amount of the Loan, (y) costs and expenses of such sale and (z) the amount of any taxes or assessments or any similar charges paid out of the proceeds of such sale or subject to which the Property has been sold. Nothing herein is intended to require Administrative Agent to proceed against Borrower or any security for the Loan before proceeding against Guarantor at any time or limit Administrative Agent’s right to proceed against Guarantor at any time or from time to time for principal, interest, default interest and late charges guaranteed hereby which are not paid as and when the same become due in accordance with the terms of the Note, Loan Agreement and Mortgage whether or not Administrative Agent shall have declared the principal of the Note and accrued and unpaid interest, default interest and late charges payable thereunder or under the Mortgage or the Loan Agreement to be immediately due and payable.

4


                    This Guaranty covers the Indebtedness, whether presently outstanding or arising subsequent to the date hereof, including all amounts advanced by Lenders in stages or installments. The guaranty of Guarantor as set forth in this Section 1 is a continuing guaranty of payment and not a guaranty of collection.

                    2. Guaranty of Performance. Guarantor additionally hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to Administrative Agent and Lenders the timely performance of all other obligations of Borrower under all of the Loan Documents, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing:

 

 

 

          (a) that the tenant improvement work required to be performed by the landlord under any and all leases, both existing and future, of space in the Improvements (the “TI Work”) will be constructed in accordance with such leases and the Loan Agreement; and

 

 

 

          (b) that the TI Work will be completed, lien free, and ready for occupancy, including delivery of any permits, certificates or governmental approvals required by law or the applicable lease, on or before the date required in such lease.

If any of such obligations of Borrower are not complied with, in any respect whatsoever, and without the necessity of any notice from Administrative Agent or Lenders to Guarantor, Guarantor agrees to (i) assume all responsibility for the completion of the TI Work and, at Guarantor’s own cost and expense, cause the TI Work to be fully completed in accordance with the leases of the Property and the Loan Documents; (ii) pay all bills in connection with the construction of the TI Work; and (iii) indemnify and hold Administrative Agent and Lenders harmless from any and all loss, cost, liability or expense that Administrative Agent and Lenders may suffer by reason of any such non-compliance. So long as all of such obligations are being performed by Borrower or Guarantor and no Default exists, Lenders will make the Loan proceeds, if any, available under and subject to the terms of the Loan Agreement. If after the occurrence of a Default, and without limiting the rights and remedies of Administrative Agent and Lenders, Administrative Agent, in its sole and absolute discretion, is dissatisfied with the progress of construction by Borrower and/or Guarantor, Administrative Agent may, at its option, without notice to Guarantor or anyone else, complete the TI Work either before or after commencement of foreclosure proceedings or before or after exercise of any other right or remedy of Administrative Agent against Borrower or Guarantor and expend such sums as Administrative Agent, in its sole and absolute discretion, deems necessary or advisable to complete the TI Work, and Guarantor hereby waives any right to contest any such expenditures by Administrative Agent and/or Lenders. The amount of any and all expenditures made by Administrative Agent for the foregoing purposes shall bear interest from the date made until repaid to Administrative Agent, at a rate per annum equal to the interest rate provided for in the Note and, together with such interest, shall be due and payable by Guarantor to Administrative Agent upon demand. Neither Lenders nor Administrative Agent have nor shall they ever have any obligation to complete the TI Work or take any such action. The obligations and liability of Guarantor under this Section 2 shall not be limited or restricted by the existence of (or any terms of) the guaranty of payment under Section 1.

5


                    3. Primary Liability of Guarantor.

                    (a) This Guaranty is an absolute, irrevocable and unconditional guaranty of payment and performance. Guarantor shall be liable for the payment and performance of the Guaranteed Obligations as a primary obligor. This Guaranty shall be effective as a waiver of, and Guarantor hereby expressly waives, any and all rights to which Guarantor may otherwise have been entitled under any suretyship laws in effect from time to time, including any right or privilege, whether existing under statute, at law or in equity, to require Administrative Agent or Lenders to take prior recourse or proceedings against any collateral, security or Person (hereinafter defined) whatsoever.

                    (b) Guarantor hereby agrees that in the event of (i) default by Borrower in payment or performance of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any part thereof, when such indebtedness or performance becomes due, either by its terms or as the result of the exercise of any power to accelerate; (ii) the failure of Guarantor to perform completely and satisfactorily the covenants, terms and conditions of any of the Guaranteed Obligations; (iii) the death, incompetency, dissolution or insolvency of Guarantor, provided, however, that the death of a Guarantor shall not be an Event of Default if a new guarantor satisfactory to Administrative Agent in its sole discretion assumes the deceased Guarantor’s obligations within sixty (60) days of the death of such Guarantor; (iv) the inability of Guarantor to pay debts as they mature; (v) an assignment by Guarantor for the benefit of creditors; (vi) the institution of any proceeding by or against Guarantor in bankruptcy or for a reorganization or an arrangement with creditors, or for the appointment of a receiver, trustee or custodian for any of them or for any of their respective properties; (vii) the breach of any of the covenants set forth in Sections 18 or 19; (viii) the entry of a judgment against Guarantor for an amount in excess of $1,000,000 and Guarantor shall not discharge the same or cause it to be discharged within sixty (60) days from the entry thereof, or shall not appeal therefrom or from the order, decree or process upon which or pursuant to which said judgment was granted, based or entered, and secure a stay of execution pending such appeal; (ix) a writ or order of attachment, levy or garnishment is issued against Guarantor; (x) the falsity in any material respect of, or any material omission in, any representation made to Administrative Agent and/or Lenders by Guarantor; or (xi) any transfer of assets of any Guarantor, without Administrative Agent’s prior consent (except for transfers in the ordinary course of Guarantor’s business provided that any such transfer is in compliance with applicable Laws and all covenants and agreements by which Guarantor is bound, customary political and charitable contributions, and transfers for which Guarantor receives consideration substantially equivalent to the fair market value of the transferred asset) (individually and collectively an “Event of Default”); then upon the occurrence of such Event of Default, the Guaranteed Obligations, for purposes of this Guaranty, shall be deemed immediately due and payable at the election of Administrative Agent, and Guarantor shall, on demand and without presentment, protest, notice of protest, further notice of nonpayment or of dishonor, default or nonperformance, or notice of acceleration or of intent to accelerate, or any other notice whatsoever, without any notice having been given to Guarantor previous to such demand of the acceptance by Administrative Agent and/or Lenders of this Guaranty, and without any notice having been given to Guarantor previous to such demand of the creating or incurring of such indebtedness or of such obligation to perform, all such notices being hereby waived by Guarantor, pay the amount due to Administrative Agent or perform or observe the agreement, covenant, term or condition, as the case may be, and pay all damages and all costs and expenses

6


that may arise in consequence of such Event of Default (including, without limitation, all attorneys’ fees and expenses, investigation costs, court costs, and any and all other costs and expenses incurred by Administrative Agent in connection with the collection and enforcement of the Note, this Guaranty or any other Loan Document), whether or not suit is filed thereon, or whether at maturity or by acceleration, or whether before or after maturity, or whether in connection with bankruptcy, insolvency or appeal. It shall not be necessary for Administrative Agent, in order to enforce such payment or performance by Guarantor, first to institute suit or pursue or exhaust any rights or remedies against Borrower or others liable on such indebtedness or for such performance, or to enforce any rights against any security that shall ever have been given to secure such indebtedness or performance, or to join Borrower or any others liable for the payment or performance of the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof in any action to enforce this Guaranty, or to resort to any other means of obtaining payment or performance of the Guaranteed Obligations; provided, however, that nothing herein contained shall prevent Administrative Agent from suing on the Note or foreclosing the Mortgage or from exercising any other rights thereunder, and if such foreclosure or other remedy is availed of, only the net proceeds therefrom, after deduction of all charges and expenses of every kind and nature whatsoever, shall be applied in reduction of the amount due on the Note and Mortgage, and Administrative Agent shall not be required to institute or prosecute proceedings to recover any deficiency as a condition of payment hereunder or enforcement hereof. At any sale of the Property or other collateral given for the Indebtedness or any part thereof, whether by foreclosure or otherwise, Administrative Agent may at its discretion purchase all or any part of the Property or collateral so sold or offered for sale for its own account and may, in payment of the amount bid therefor, deduct such amount from the balance due it pursuant to the terms of the Note, Mortgage and other Loan Documents.

                    (c) Suit may be brought or demand may be made against Borrower or against all parties who have signed this Guaranty or any other guaranty covering all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, or against any one or more of them, separately or together, without impairing the rights of Administrative Agent and/or Lenders against any party hereto. Any time that Administrative Agent is entitled to exercise its rights or remedies hereunder, it may in its discretion elect to demand payment and/or performance. If Administrative Agent elects to demand performance, it shall at all times thereafter have the right to demand payment until all of the Guaranteed Obligations have been paid and performed in full. If Administrative Agent elects to demand payment, it shall at all times thereafter have the right to demand performance until all of the Guaranteed Obligations have been paid and performed in full.

                    4. Certain Agreements and Waivers by Guarantor.

                    (a) Guarantor hereby agrees that neither the rights or remedies of Administrative Agent and Lenders nor Guarantor’s obligations under the terms of this Guaranty shall be released, diminished, impaired, reduced or affected by any one or more of the following events, actions, facts, or circumstances, and the liability of Guarantor under this Guaranty shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of:

                         (b) In the event any payment by Borrower or any other Person to Administrative Agent and/or Lenders is held to constitute a preference, fraudulent transfer or other voidable payment under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law, or if for any other reason Administrative Agent and/or Lenders is required to refund such payment or pay the amount thereof to any other party, such payment by Borrower or any other party to Administrative Agent and/or Lenders shall not constitute a release of Guarantor from any liability hereunder, and this Guaranty shall continue to be effective or shall be reinstated (notwithstanding any prior release, surrender or discharge by Administrative Agent and/or Lenders of this Guaranty or of Guarantor), as the case may be, with respect to, and this Guaranty shall apply to, any and all amounts so refunded by Administrative Agent and/or Lenders or paid by Administrative Agent and/or Lenders to another Person (which amounts shall constitute part of the Guaranteed Obligations), and any interest paid by Administrative Agent and/or Lenders and any attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses paid or incurred by Administrative Agent and/or Lenders in connection with any such event. It is the intent of Guarantor, Administrative Agent and Lenders that the obligations and liabilities of Guarantor hereunder are absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and that until the Guaranteed Obligations are fully and finally paid and performed, and not subject to refund or disgorgement, the obligations and liabilities of Guarantor hereunder shall not be discharged or released, in whole or in part, by any act or occurrence that might, but for the provisions of this Guaranty, be deemed a legal or equitable discharge or release of a guarantor. Administrative Agent and/or Lenders shall be entitled to continue to hold this Guaranty in its possession for the longer of (i) the period after which any performance of obligations under the Environmental Agreement shall accrue, or (ii) a

period of one year from the date the Guaranteed Obligations are paid and performed in full and for so long thereafter as may be necessary to enforce any obligation of Guarantor hereunder and/or to exercise any right or remedy of Administrative Agent and/or Lenders hereunder.

                    (c) If acceleration of the time for payment of any amount payable by Borrower under the Note, the Loan Agreement, any Swap Contract or any other Loan Document is stayed or delayed by any law or tribunal, all such amounts shall nonetheless be payable by Guarantor on demand by Administrative Agent and/or Lenders.

                    5. Subordination. If, for any reason whatsoever, Borrower is now or hereafter becomes indebted to Guarantor:

 

 

 

          (a) such indebtedness and all interest thereon and all liens, security interests and rights now or hereafter existing with respect to property of Borrower securing such indebtedness shall, at all times, be subordinate in all respects to the Guaranteed Obligations and to all liens, security interests and rights now or hereafter existing to secure the Guaranteed Obligations;

 

 

 

          (b) Guarantor shall not be entitled to enforce or receive payment, directly or indirectly, of any such indebtedness of Borrower to Guarantor until the Guaranteed Obligations have been fully and finally paid and performed;

 

 

 

          (c) Guarantor hereby assigns and grants to Administrative Agent for the benefit of Lenders a security interest in all such indebtedness and security therefor, if any, of Borrower to Guarantor now existing or hereafter arising, including any dividends and payments pursuant to debtor relief or insolvency proceedings referred to below. In the event of receivership, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement or other debtor relief or insolvency proceedings involving Borrower as debtor, Administrative Agent shall have the right to prove the claim of Administrative Agent and/or Lenders in any such proceeding so as to establish their rights hereunder and shall have the right to receive directly from the receiver, trustee or other custodian (whether or not a Default shall have occurred or be continuing under any of the Loan Documents), dividends and payments that are payable upon any obligation of Borrower to Guarantor now existing or hereafter arising, and to have all benefits of any security therefor, until the Guaranteed Obligations have been fully and finally paid and performed. If, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, Guarantor should receive any payment, claim or distribution that is prohibited as provided above in this Section 5, Guarantor shall pay the same to Administrative Agent immediately, Guarantor hereby agreeing that it shall receive the payment, claim or distribution in trust for Administrative Agent and Lenders and shall have absolutely no dominion over the same except to pay it immediately to Administrative Agent; and

 

 

 

          (d) Guarantor shall promptly upon request of Administrative Agent from time to time execute such documents and perform such acts as Administrative Agent may require to evidence and perfect its interest and to permit or facilitate exercise of its rights under this Section 5, including, but not limited to, execution and delivery of financing statements, proofs of claim, further assignments and security agreements, and delivery to Administrative Agent of any promissory notes or other instruments evidencing

11



 

indebtedness of Borrower to Guarantor. All promissory notes, accounts receivable ledgers or other evidences, now or hereafter held by Guarantor, of obligations of Borrower to Guarantor shall contain a specific written notice thereon that the indebtedness evidenced thereby is subordinated under and is subject to the terms of this Guaranty.

                         6. Other Liability of Guarantor or Borrower. If Guarantor is or becomes liable, by endorsement or otherwise, for any indebtedness owing by Borrower to Administrative Agent and/or Lenders other than under this Guaranty, such liability shall not be in any manner impaired or affected hereby, and the rights of Administrative Agent and/or Lenders hereunder shall be cumulative of any and all other rights that Administrative Agent and/or Lenders may have against Guarantor. This Guaranty is independent of (and shall not be limited by) any other guaranty now existing or hereafter given. Further, Guarantor’s liability under this Guaranty is in addition to any and all other liability Guarantor may have in any other capacity, including without limitation, its capacity as a general partner.

                         7. Lender Assigns. This Guaranty is for the benefit of Administrative Agent and Lenders and their successors and assigns, subject to the terms of the Loan Agreement, and in the event of an assignment of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any part thereof, the rights and benefits hereunder, to the extent applicable to the Guaranteed Obligations so assigned, may be transferred with such Guaranteed Obligations. Guarantor waives notice of any transfer or assignment of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any part thereof, and agrees that failure to give notice of any such transfer or assignment will not affect the liabilities of Guarantor hereunder.

                         8. Binding Effect. This Guaranty is binding not only on Guarantor, but also on Guarantor’s heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns. Upon the death of Guarantor, if Guarantor is a natural person, this Guaranty shall continue against Guarantor’s estate as to all of the Guaranteed Obligations, including that portion incurred or arising after the death of Guarantor and shall be provable in full against Guarantor’s estate, whether or not the Guaranteed Obligations are then due and payable. If this Guaranty is signed by more than one Person, then all of the obligations of Guarantor arising hereunder shall be jointly and severally binding on each of the undersigned, and their respective heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns, and the term “Guarantor” shall mean all of such Persons and each of them individually.

                         9. Governing Law; Forum; Consent to Jurisdiction. This Guaranty is an agreement executed under seal. The validity, enforcement, and interpretation of this Guaranty, shall for all purposes be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York and applicable United States federal law, and is intended to be performed in accordance with, and only to the extent permitted by, such laws. If any Guarantor is a corporation, the designation “(SEAL)” on this Guaranty shall be effective as the affixing of such Guarantor’s corporate seal physically to this Guaranty. All obligations of Guarantor hereunder are payable and performable at the place or places where the Guaranteed Obligations are payable and performable. Guarantor hereby irrevocably submits generally and unconditionally for Guarantor and in respect of Guarantor’s property to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of any state court, or any United States federal court, sitting in the state specified in the first sentence of this Section and to the jurisdiction of any state or United States federal court sitting in the state in

12


which any of the Land is located, over any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Guaranty or the Guaranteed Obligations. Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection that Guarantor may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue in any such court and any claim that any such court is an inconvenient forum. Final judgment in any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court shall be conclusive and binding upon Guarantor and may be enforced in any court in which Guarantor is subject to jurisdiction. Guarantor hereby agrees and consents that, in addition to any methods of service of process provided for under applicable law, all service of process in any such suit, action or proceeding in any state court, or any United States federal court, sitting in the state specified in the first sentence of this Section may be made by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, directed to Guarantor at the address set forth at the end of this Guaranty, or at a subsequent address of which Administrative Agent receives actual notice from Guarantor in accordance with the notice provisions hereof, and service so made shall be complete five (5) days after the same shall have been so mailed. Nothing herein shall affect the right of Administrative Agent to serve process in any manner permitted by law or limit the right of Administrative Agent to bring proceedings against Guarantor in any other court or jurisdiction. Guarantor hereby releases, to the extent permitted by applicable law, all errors and all rights of exemption, appeal, stay of execution, inquisition, and other rights to which Guarantor may otherwise be entitled under the laws of the United States of America or any State or possession of the United States of America now in force or which may hereinafter be enacted. The authority and power to appear for and enter judgment against the Guarantor shall not be exhausted by one or more exercises thereof or by any imperfect exercise thereof and shall not be extinguished by any judgment entered pursuant thereto. Such authority may be exercised on one or more occasions or from time to time in the same or different jurisdiction as often as the Administrative Agent shall deem necessary and desirable.

                    10. Invalidity of Certain Provisions. If any provision of this Guaranty or the application thereof to any Person or circumstance shall, for any reason and to any extent, be declared to be invalid or unenforceable, neither the remaining provisions of this Guaranty nor the application of such provision to any other Person or circumstance shall be affected thereby, and the remaining provisions of this Guaranty, or the applicability of such provision to other Persons or circumstances, as applicable, shall remain in effect and be enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.

                    11. Attorneys’ Fees and Costs of Collection. Guarantor shall pay on demand all attorneys’ fees and all other costs and expenses incurred by Administrative Agent and/or Lenders in the enforcement of or preservation of Administrative Agent’s and/or Lenders’ rights under this Guaranty including, without limitation, all attorneys’ fees and expenses, investigation costs, and all court costs, whether or not suit is filed hereon, or whether at maturity or by acceleration, or whether before or after maturity, or whether in connection with bankruptcy, insolvency or appeal, or whether in connection with the collection and enforcement of this Guaranty against any other Guarantor, if there be more than one. Guarantor agrees to pay interest on any expenses or other sums due to Administrative Agent and/or Lenders under this Section 11 that are not paid when due, at a rate per annum equal to the interest rate provided for in the Note. Guarantor’s obligations and liabilities under this Section 11 shall survive any payment or discharge in full of the Guaranteed Obligations.

13


                    12. Payments. All sums payable under this Guaranty shall be paid in lawful money of the United States of America that at the time of payment is legal tender for the payment of public and private debts.

                    13. Controlling Agreement. It is not the intention of Administrative Agent, Lenders or Guarantor to obligate Guarantor to pay interest in excess of that lawfully permitted to be paid by Guarantor under applicable law. Should it be determined that any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other amount payable by Guarantor under this Guaranty constitutes interest in excess of the maximum amount of interest that Guarantor, in Guarantor’s capacity as guarantor, may lawfully be required to pay under applicable law, the obligation of Guarantor to pay such interest shall automatically be limited to the payment thereof in the maximum amount so permitted under applicable law. The provisions of this Section 13 shall override and control all other provisions of this Guaranty and of any other agreement between Guarantor, Administrative Agent and Lenders.

                    14. Representations, Warranties, and Covenants of Guarantor. Guarantor hereby represents, warrants, and covenants that: (a) Guarantor has a financial interest in Borrower and will derive a material and substantial benefit, directly or indirectly, from the making of the Loan to Borrower and from the making of this Guaranty by Guarantor; (b) this Guaranty is duly authorized and valid, and is binding upon and enforceable against Guarantor; (c) Guarantor is not, and the execution, delivery and performance by Guarantor of this Guaranty will not cause Guarantor to be, in violation of or in default with respect to any law or in default (or at risk of acceleration of indebtedness) under any agreement or restriction by which Guarantor is bound or affected; (d) Guarantor is duly organized, validly existing, and in good standing under the laws of the state of its organization and under Delaware laws, is lawfully doing business in New York, and has full power and authority to enter into and perform this Guaranty; (e) Guarantor will indemnify Administrative Agent and Lenders from any loss, cost or expense as a result of any representation or warranty of the Guarantor being false, incorrect, incomplete or misleading in any material respect; (f) there is no litigation pending or, to the knowledge of Guarantor, threatened before or by any tribunal against or affecting Guarantor other than litigation which, if adversely determined, would not have a material adverse effect on the operations, business, properties, liabilities (actual or contingent), condition (financial or otherwise) of Guarantor; (g) all financial statements and information heretofore furnished to Administrative Agent and Lenders by Guarantor do, and all financial statements and information hereafter furnished to Administrative Agent and Lenders by Guarantor will, fully and accurately present the condition (financial or otherwise) of Guarantor as of their dates and the results of Guarantor’s operations for the periods therein specified, and, since the date of the most recent financial statements of Guarantor heretofore furnished to Administrative Agent, no material adverse change has occurred in the financial condition of Guarantor, nor, except as heretofore disclosed in writing to Administrative Agent, has Guarantor incurred any material liability, direct or indirect, fixed or contingent; (h) after giving effect to this Guaranty, Guarantor is solvent, is not engaged or about to engage in business or a transaction for which the property of Guarantor is an unreasonably small capital, and does not intend to incur or believe that it will incur debts that will be beyond its ability to pay as such debts mature; (i) Administrative Agent and Lenders have no duty at any time to investigate or inform Guarantor of the financial or business condition or affairs of Borrower or any change therein, and Guarantor will keep fully apprised of Borrower’s financial and business condition; (j) Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that

Guarantor may be required to pay and perform the Guaranteed Obligations in full without assistance or support from Borrower or any other Person; and (k) Guarantor has read and fully understands the provisions contained in the Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage, the Environmental Agreement, and the other Loan Documents. Guarantor’s representations, warranties and covenants are a material inducement to Administrative Agent and Lenders to enter into the other Loan Documents and shall survive the execution hereof and any bankruptcy, foreclosure, transfer of security or other event affecting Borrower, Guarantor, any other party, or any security for all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations.

                    Guarantor further represents, warrants and covenants that if any Swap Contract shall at any time be in effect, (x) Guarantor has received and examined copies of each such Swap Contract, the observance and performance of which by Borrower is hereby guaranteed; (y) Guarantor will benefit from Administrative Agent’s and/or any Lender’s entering into each such Swap Contract and any transaction thereunder with Borrower, and Guarantor has determined that the execution and delivery by Guarantor of this Guaranty are necessary and convenient to the conduct, promotion and attainment of the business of Guarantor; and (z) Administrative Agent and Lenders have no duty to determine whether any Swap Contract, or any other transaction relating to or arising under any Swap Contract, will be or has been entered into by Borrower for purposes of hedging interest rate, currency exchange rate, or other risks arising in its businesses or affairs and not for purposes of speculation or is otherwise inappropriate for Borrower. Guarantor’s representations, warranties and covenants are a material inducement to Administrative Agent to enter into the other Loan Documents and any Swap Contract shall survive the execution hereof and any bankruptcy, foreclosure, transfer of security or other event affecting Borrower, Guarantor, any other party, or any security for all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations.

                    15. Notices. All notices, requests, consents, demands and other communications required or which any party desires to give hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be in writing and, unless otherwise specifically provided in such other Loan Document, shall be deemed sufficiently given or furnished if delivered by personal delivery, by nationally recognized overnight courier service, or by registered or certified United States mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the party to whom directed at the addresses specified in this Guaranty (unless changed by similar notice in writing given by the particular party whose address is to be changed) or by telegram, telex, or facsimile. Any such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been given either at the time of personal delivery or, in the case of courier or mail, as of the date of first attempted delivery at the address and in the manner provided herein, or, in the case of telegram, telex or facsimile, upon receipt; provided that, service of a notice required by any applicable statute shall be considered complete when the requirements of that statute are met. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no notice of change of address shall be effective except upon actual receipt. This Section shall not be construed in any way to affect or impair any waiver of notice or demand provided in this Guaranty or in any Loan Document or to require giving of notice or demand to or upon any Person in any situation or for any reason.

                    16. Cumulative Rights. The exercise by Administrative Agent and/or Lenders of any right or remedy hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or at law or in equity, shall not preclude the concurrent or subsequent exercise of any other right or remedy. Administrative

15


Agent and Lenders shall have all rights, remedies and recourses afforded to Administrative Agent and Lenders by reason of this Guaranty or any other Loan Document or by law or equity or otherwise, and the same (a) shall be cumulative and concurrent, (b) may be pursued separately, successively or concurrently against Guarantor or others obligated for the Guaranteed Obligations, or any part thereof, or against any one or more of them, or against any security or otherwise, at the sole and absolute discretion of Administrative Agent, (c) may be exercised as often as occasion therefor shall arise, it being agreed by Guarantor that the exercise of, discontinuance of the exercise of or failure to exercise any of such rights, remedies, or recourses shall in no event be construed as a waiver or release thereof or of any other right, remedy, or recourse, and (d) are intended to be, and shall be, nonexclusive. No waiver of any default on the part of Guarantor or of any breach of any of the provisions of this Guaranty or of any other document shall be considered a waiver of any other or subsequent default or breach, and no delay or omission in exercising or enforcing the rights and powers granted herein or in any other document shall be construed as a waiver of such rights and powers, and no exercise or enforcement of any rights or powers hereunder or under any other document shall be held to exhaust such rights and powers, and every such right and power may be exercised from time to time. The granting of any consent, approval or waiver by Administrative Agent and/or Lenders shall be limited to the specific instance and purpose therefor and shall not constitute consent or approval in any other instance or for any other purpose. No notice to or demand on Guarantor in any case shall of itself entitle Guarantor to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. No provision of this Guaranty or any right, remedy or recourse of Administrative Agent and/or Lenders with respect hereto, or any default or breach, can be waived, nor can this Guaranty or Guarantor be released or discharged in any way or to any extent, except specifically in each case by a writing intended for that purpose (and which refers specifically to this Guaranty) executed, and delivered to Guarantor, by Administrative Agent.

                    17. Term of Guaranty. This Guaranty shall continue in effect until all the Guaranteed Obligations are fully and finally paid, performed and discharged, except that, and notwithstanding any return of this Guaranty to Guarantor, this Guaranty shall continue in effect (i) with respect to any of the Guaranteed Obligations that survive the full and final payment of the indebtedness evidenced by the Note, (ii) with respect to all obligations and liabilities of Guarantor under Section 11 and (iii) as provided in Section 4(b).

All Financial Statements shall be in form and detail satisfactory to Administrative Agent and shall contain or be attached to the signed and dated written certification of the reporting party in form satisfactory to Administrative Agent to certify that the Financial Statements are furnished to Administrative Agent in connection with the extension of credit by Lenders and constitute a true and correct statement of the reporting party’s financial position. All certifications and signatures on behalf of corporations, partnerships or other entities shall be by a representative of the entity satisfactory to Administrative Agent. All Financial Statements for a reporting party who is an individual shall be on Administrative Agent’s then-current personal financial statement form or in another form satisfactory to Administrative Agent. All fiscal year-end Financial Statements shall be audited or certified, as required by Administrative Agent, without any qualification or exception not acceptable to Administrative Agent, by independent certified public accountants acceptable to Administrative Agent, and shall contain all reports and disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles for a fair presentation. All fiscal year-end Financial Statements of the following reporting parties shall be compiled or reviewed by independent certified public accountants acceptable to Administrative Agent.

                    Guarantor represents and warrants to Administrative Agent and Lenders that the financial information in the current and future Quarterly Reporting Supplements shall accurately reflect the financial condition of Guarantor. All assets shown on the Financial Statements provided by Guarantor and/or its Parent, unless clearly designated to the contrary shall, be conclusively deemed to be free and clear of any exemption or any claim of exemption of Guarantor and/or its Parent at the date of the Financial Statements and at all times thereafter. Acceptance of any Financial Statement by Administrative Agent and/or Lenders, whether or not in the form prescribed herein, shall be relied upon by Administrative Agent and Lenders in the administration, enforcement, and extension of the Guaranteed Obligations.

                    20. Disclosure of Information.

                    21. Right of Set-Off. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default, however defined, in the payment or performance when due of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, Lenders are hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, without notice to any Person (any such notice being expressly waived by Guarantor to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law), to set off and apply any and all deposits, funds, or assets at any time held and other indebtedness at any time

22


owing by any Lender to or for the credit or the account of Guarantor against any and all of the obligations of Guarantor now or hereafter existing under this Guaranty, whether or not any such Lender or Administrative Agent shall have made any demand under this Guaranty or exercised any other right or remedy hereunder. Lenders will promptly notify Administrative Agent, the other Lenders and Guarantor after any such set-off and application made by any such Lender, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.

This waiver is given to induce Administrative Agent and Lenders to make the Loan to Borrower.

                    23. Further Assurances. Guarantor at Guarantor’s expense will promptly execute and deliver to Administrative Agent upon Administrative Agent’s request all such other and further documents, agreements, and instruments in compliance with or accomplishment of the agreements of Guarantor under this Guaranty.

                    24. No Fiduciary Relationship. The relationship between Administrative Agent, Lenders and Guarantor is solely that of lenders (acting through Administrative Agent) and guarantor. Administrative Agent and Lenders have no fiduciary or other special relationship with or duty to Guarantor and none is created hereby or may be inferred from any course of dealing or act or omission of Administrative Agent and/or Lenders.

                    25. Interpretation.

                    27. Counterparts. This Guaranty may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which, for all purposes, shall be deemed an original, and all of which taken together shall constitute but one and the same agreement.

                    28. Entire Agreement. This Guaranty embodies the entire agreement between Administrative Agent, Lenders and Guarantor with respect to the guaranty by Guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations. This Guaranty supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, if any, with respect to the guaranty by Guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations. No condition or conditions precedent to the effectiveness of this Guaranty exist. This Guaranty shall be effective upon execution by Guarantor and delivery to Administrative Agent. This Guaranty may not be modified, amended or superseded except in a writing signed by Administrative Agent and Guarantor referencing this Guaranty by its date and specifically identifying the portions hereof that are to be modified, amended or superseded.

                    29. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. WITHOUT INTENDING IN ANY WAY TO LIMIT THE PARTIES’ AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE ANY “DISPUTE” (FOR PURPOSES OF THIS SECTION, AS DEFINED BELOW) AS SET FORTH IN THIS GUARANTY, TO THE EXTENT ANY “DISPUTE” IS NOT SUBMITTED TO ARBITRATION OR IS DEEMED BY THE ARBITRATOR OR BY ANY COURT WITH JURISDICTION TO BE NOT ARBITRABLE OR NOT REQUIRED TO BE ARBITRATED, GUARANTOR, ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND LENDERS WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY SUCH “DISPUTE” AND ANY ACTION ON SUCH “DISPUTE.” THIS WAIVER IS KNOWINGLY, WILLINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY MADE BY GUARANTOR, ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND LENDERS, AND GUARANTOR, ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND LENDERS HEREBY REPRESENT THAT NO REPRESENTATIONS OF FACT OR OPINION HAVE BEEN MADE BY ANY PERSON OR ENTITY TO INDUCE THIS WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY OR TO IN ANY WAY MODIFY OR NULLIFY ITS EFFECT.

24


                    30. Credit Verification. Each legal entity and individual obligated on this Guaranty, whether as a Guarantor, a general partner of a Guarantor or in any other capacity, hereby authorizes Administrative Agent and Lenders to check any credit references, verify his/her employment and obtain credit reports from credit reporting agencies of Administrative Agent’s and Lenders’ choice in connection with any monitoring, collection or future transaction concerning the Loan, including any modification, extension or renewal of the Loan. Also in connection with any such monitoring, collection or future transaction, Administrative Agent and Lender are hereby authorized to check credit references, verify employment and obtain a third party credit report for the spouse of any married person obligated on this Guaranty, if such person lives in a community property state.

Based on my knowledge, this report does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements made, in light of the circumstances under which such statements were made, not misleading with respect to the period covered by this report;

 

 

 

3.

Based on my knowledge, the financial statements, and other financial information included in this report, fairly present in all material respects the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the registrant as of, and for, the periods presented in this report;
