Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Loan is transferred to a transferee which is organized under the laws of any jurisdiction other than the United States of America or any state thereof, the transferor shall cause such transferee, concurrently with the effectiveness of such transfer, to furnish to the transferor and Borrower either a United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI or United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY (wherein such transferee claims entitlement to complete exemption from United States federal withholding tax on all interest payments hereunder); provided, however, that in the event that the transferor fails to cause the transferee to furnish either such Form, Borrower shall deduct any Applicable Taxes to the extent required by law and payments shall be made net of any Applicable Taxes without regard to the provisions of clause (i) of the second sentence of this Section 2.2.3.

 

2.2.4 New Payment Date. Lender shall have the right, to be exercised not more than once during the term of the Loan, to change the Payment Date to a date later than the sixth day of each month (a "New Payment Date"), on 30 days' written notice to Borrower; provided,   however, that any such change in the Payment Date: (i) shall not modify the amount of regularly scheduled monthly principal (if any) and interest payments, except that the first payment of principal (if any) and interest payable on the New Payment Date shall be accompanied by

 

 

22


 

 

interest at the interest rate herein provided for the period from the Payment Date in the month in which the New Payment Date first occurs to the New Payment Date, and (ii) shall extend the Stated Maturity Date to the New Payment Date occurring in the month set forth in the definition of Stated Maturity Date.

 

Section 2.3 Loan Repayment.

 

2.3.1 Repayment. Borrower shall repay the entire outstanding principal balance of the Notes in full on the Maturity Date, together with interest thereon to (but excluding) the date of repayment and any other amounts due and owing under the Loan Documents. Borrower shall have no right to prepay or defease all or any portion of the Principal except in accordance with Section 2.3.2, Section 2.3.3 and Section 2.4 below. Except during the continuance of an Event of Default, all proceeds of any repayment, including any prepayments of the Loan, shall be applied by Lender as follows in the following order of priority: First, accrued and unpaid interest at the Interest Rate; second, to Principal; and third, to and any other amounts then due and owing under the Loan Documents; provided, however, as between the allocation of the foregoing application of payments between Note A and Note B, such allocation shall be made by Lender in such manner as Lender shall elect in Lender's discretion.. If prior to the Stated Maturity Date the Debt is accelerated by reason of an Event of Default, then Lender shall be entitled to receive, in addition to the unpaid Principal and accrued interest and other sums due under the Loan Documents, an amount equal to the Yield Maintenance Premium applicable to such Principal so accelerated. During the continuance of an Event of Default, all proceeds of repayment, including any payment or recovery on the Property (whether through foreclosure, deed-in-lieu of foreclosure, or otherwise) shall, unless otherwise provided in the Loan Documents, be applied in such order and in such manner as Lender shall elect in Lender's discretion.

 

2.3.2 Mandatory Prepayments. The Loan is subject to mandatory prepayment in certain instances of Insured Casualty or Condemnation (each, a "Casualty/Condemnation Prepayment"), in the manner and to the extent set forth in Section 7.4.2. Each Casualty/Condemnation Prepayment, after deducting Lender's costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) in connection with the settlement or collection of the Proceeds or Award, shall be applied in the same manner as repayments under Section 2.3.1, and if such Casualty/Condemnation Payment is made on any date other than a Payment Date, then such Casualty/Condemnation Payment shall include interest that would have accrued on the Principal prepaid to but not including the next Payment Date. Provided that no Event of Default is continuing, any such mandatory prepayment under this Section 2.3.2 shall be without the payment of the Yield Maintenance Premium. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, each Casualty/Condemnation Prepayment shall be applied in inverse order of maturity and shall not extend or postpone the due dates of the monthly installments due under the Note or this Agreement, or change the amounts of such installments.

 

2.3.3 Defeasance

 

(a)   Conditions to Defeasance. Provided no Event of Default shall be continuing, Borrower shall have the right on any Payment Date after the Lockout Release Date and prior to the Permitted Prepayment Date to voluntarily defease the entire amount of the

Principal and obtain a release of the Lien of the Mortgage and a release of Borrower's and Guarantor's obligations under the other Loan Documents and the Master Lease (other than (i) those obligations which are expressly stated to survive the payment in full of the Loan and (ii) the Security Agreement) by providing Lender with the Defeasance Collateral (a "Defeasance Event"), subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions precedent:

(4)    Borrower shall execute and deliver to Lender a Security Agreement in respect of the Defeasance Collateral Account and the Defeasance Collateral;

 

(5)    Borrower shall deliver to Lender an opinion of counsel for Borrower that is standard in commercial lending transactions and subject only to customary qualifications, assumptions and exceptions opining to the effect that, among other things, that (i) Lender has a legal and valid perfected security interest in the Defeasance Collateral Account and the Defeasance Collateral, (ii) if a securitization has occurred, the REMIC Trust formed pursuant to such securitization will not fail to maintain its status as a "real estate mortgage investment conduit" within the meaning of Section 860D of the Code solely as a result of a Defeasance Event pursuant to this Section 2.3.3, (iii) the Defeasance Event will not result in a significant modification and will not be an exchange of the Note for purposes of Section 1001 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder, (iv) delivery of the Defeasance Collateral and the grant of a security interest therein to Lender shall not constitute an avoidable preference under Section 547 of the Bankruptcy Code or applicable state law and (v) a non-consolidation opinion with respect to the Successor Borrower (if any);

 

(6)    Borrower shall deliver to Lender and the Rating Agencies a Rating Comfort Letter as to the Defeasance Event;

(8)    Borrower shall deliver an agreed upon procedures letter from a "big four" or other nationally recognized public accounting firm that would be acceptable to a prudent lender (or any other accounting firm that is reputable and experienced in preparing such procedure letters and reports and would be reasonably acceptable to a prudent lender) verifying that the Defeasance Collateral will generate monthly amounts equal to or greater than the Scheduled Defeasance Payments, (ii) the revenue from the Defeasance Collateral will be applied within four months of receipt towards payments of Debt Service, (iii) the securities that comprise

 

 

24


 

 

the Defeasance Collateral are not subject to prepayment, call or early redemption and (iv) the interest income to Borrower (or the Successor Borrower, if applicable) from the Defeasance Collateral will not in any tax year materially exceed the interest expense associated with the defeased Loan;

 

(9)    Borrower shall deliver such other certificates, opinions, documents and instruments as a prudent lender may reasonably request; and

 

(10)    Borrower shall pay all costs and expenses of Lender incurred in connection with the Defeasance Event, including Lender's reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses and Rating Agency fees and expenses.

 

(b)    Defeasance Collateral Account. On or before the date on which Borrower delivers the Defeasance Collateral, Borrower shall open at any Eligible Institution the defeasance collateral account (the "Defeasance Collateral Account") which shall at all times be an Eligible Account. The Defeasance Collateral Account shall contain only (i) Defeasance Collateral, and (ii) cash from interest and principal paid on the Defeasance Collateral. All cash from interest and principal payments paid on the Defeasance Collateral shall be paid over to Lender on each Payment Date and applied first to accrued and unpaid interest and then to Principal. Any cash from interest and principal paid on the Defeasance Collateral not needed to pay accrued and unpaid interest or Principal shall be retained in the Defeasance Collateral Account as additional collateral for the Loan. Borrower shall cause the Eligible Institution at which the Defeasance Collateral is deposited to enter an agreement with Borrower and Lender, satisfactory to Lender in its sole discretion, pursuant to which such Eligible Institution shall agree to hold and distribute the Defeasance Collateral in accordance with this Agreement. The Borrower or the Successor Borrower shall be the owner of the Defeasance Collateral Account and shall report all income accrued on Defeasance Collateral for federal, state and local income tax purposes in its income tax return to the extent required by law. Borrower shall pay all costs and expenses associated with opening and maintaining the Defeasance Collateral Account. Neither Borrower (provided that a Successor Borrower has assumed the Loan) nor Lender shall in any way be liable by reason of any insufficiency in the Defeasance Collateral Account.

 

(c)    Successor Borrower. In connection with a Defeasance Event under this Section 2.3.3, Borrower shall, if required by the Rating Agencies or if Borrower elect to do so, establish or designate a successor entity (the "Successor Borrower") which shall be a Single Purpose Bankruptcy Remote Entity and which shall be approved by the Rating Agencies. Any such Successor Borrower may, at Borrower's option, be an Affiliate of Borrower unless the Rating Agencies shall require otherwise. Borrower shall transfer and assign all obligations, rights and duties under and to the Note, together with the Defeasance Collateral to such Successor Borrower. Such Successor Borrower shall assume the obligations under the Note and the Security Agreement and Borrower shall be relieved of its obligations under the Debt and the Loan Documents (other than those obligations which are expressly stated to survive the payment in full of the Loan). Borrower shall pay a minimum of $1,000 to any such Successor Borrower as consideration for assuming the obligations under the Note and the Security Agreement (unless such requirement shall be waived by the applicable Rating Agencies). Borrower shall pay all costs and expenses incurred by Lender, including Lender's attorney's fees and expenses, incurred in connection therewith.

 

 

25


 

 

2.3.4 Optional Prepayments. From and after the third Payment Date prior to the Stated Maturity Date (the "Permitted Prepayment Date"), Borrower shall have the right to prepay the Principal in whole but not in part, provided that Borrower gives Lender at least 15 days' prior written notice thereof. If any such prepayment is not made on a Payment Date, Borrower shall also pay interest that would have accrued on such prepaid Principal to, but not including, the next Payment Date. Any such prepayment shall be made without payment of the Yield Maintenance Premium.

 

2.3.5 Prepayments After Default. If after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, payment of all or any part of the principal of the Loan is tendered by Borrower, a purchaser at foreclosure or any other Person, such tender shall be deemed an attempt to circumvent the prohibition against prepayment set forth in Section 2.3.1 and Borrower, such purchaser at foreclosure or other Person shall pay the Yield Maintenance Premium, in addition to the outstanding principal balance, all accrued and unpaid interest and other amounts payable under the Loan Documents.

 

Section 2.4   Release of Property.

 

2.4.1 Release on Defeasance. If Borrower has elected to defease the Notes and the requirements of Section 2.3.3 and this Section 2.4 have been satisfied, the Property shall be released from the Lien of the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents, and the Defeasance Collateral pledged pursuant to the Security Agreement shall be the sole source of collateral securing the Notes. In connection with the release of the Lien, Borrower shall submit to Lender, not less than fifteen (15) days prior to the Defeasance Date (or such shorter time as is acceptable to Lender in its sole discretion), release of Lien (and related Loan Documents) for execution by Lender. Such release shall be in a form appropriate in the jurisdiction in which the Property is located. In addition, Borrower shall provide all other documentation as a prudent lender would reasonably require to be delivered by Borrower in connection with such release, together with an Officer's Certificate certifying that such documentation (i) is in compliance with all Legal Requirements, and (ii) will effect such release in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Borrower shall pay all costs, taxes and expenses associated with the release of the Lien of the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents, including Lender's reasonable attorneys' fees.

 

2.4.2 Release on Payment in Full. Lender shall, upon the written request and at the expense of Borrower, upon payment in full of the Debt in accordance herewith, release or, if requested by Borrower, assign to Borrower ' s designee (without any representation or warranty by and without any recourse against Lender whatsoever), the Lien of the Loan Documents if not theretofore released.

 

Section 2.5 Payments and Computations.

 

2.5.1 Making of Payments.

Whenever any such payment shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the first Business Day thereafter. All such payments shall

 

 

26


 

 

be made irrespective of, and without any deduction, set-off or counterclaim whatsoever and are payable without relief from valuation and appraisement laws and with all costs and charges incurred in the collection or enforcement thereof, including attorneys' fees and court costs.

 

2.5.2 Computations. Interest payable under the Loan Documents shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a 360-day year.

 

2.5.3 Late Payment Charge. If any Principal, interest or other sum due under any Loan Document is not paid by Borrower on the date on which it is due, Borrower shall pay to Lender (within ten (10) days after the date Lender makes written demand therefor) an amount equal to the lesser of 5% of such unpaid sum or the maximum amount permitted by applicable law (the "Late Payment Charge"), in order to defray the expense incurred by Lender in handling and processing such delinquent payment and to compensate Lender for the loss of the use of such delinquent payment. Such amount shall be secured by the Loan Documents.

 

Section 2.6   Intentionally Omitted. ARTICLE 3

 

CASH MANAGEMENT AND RESERVES

 

Section 3.1   Cash Management Arrangements. Within five (5) Business Days of the date hereof, Borrower shall deliver direction letters to the non-residential tenants of the Property directing such tenants to pay all Rents directly into an Eligible Account (the "Clearing Account " ) maintained by Borrower at a local bank selected by Borrower, which shall at all times be an Eligible Institution (the "Clearing Bank") as more fully described in the Clearing Account Agreement. Without in any way limiting the foregoing, all Rents received by Borrower or Manager shall be deposited into the Clearing Account within one Business Day of receipt. Funds deposited into the Clearing Account shall be swept by the Clearing Bank on a daily basis into the Borrower's operating account at the Clearing Bank, unless  a Cash Management Period is continuing, in which event such funds shall be swept on a daily basis into an Eligible Account at the Deposit Bank controlled by Lender (the "Deposit Account") and applied and disbursed in accordance with this Agreement. Funds in the Deposit Account shall be invested at Lender's discretion only in Permitted Investments. Lender will also establish subaccounts of the Deposit Account which shall at all times be Eligible Accounts (and may be ledger or book entry accounts and not actual accounts) (such subaccounts are referred to herein as "Subaccounts"). The Deposit Account and any Subaccount will be under the sole control and dominion of Lender, and Borrower shall have no right of withdrawal therefrom. Borrower shall pay for all expenses of opening and maintaining all of the above accounts.

 

Section 3.2   Intentionally Omitted.

 

Section 3.3 Taxes and Insurance. Borrower shall pay to Lender on each Payment Date, one-twelfth of the Taxes that Lender estimates will be payable during the next ensuing twelve (12) months in order to accumulate with Lender sufficient funds to pay all such Taxes at least thirty (30) days prior to their Delinquency Date, and (A) on the date hereof, an amount equal to $74,980 (the "Initial Blanket Insurance Premium Installment") and

 

 

27


 

 

(B) (1) for so long as the applicable Blanket Insurance Premium Financing Arrangement remains in full force and effect, on each Payment Date, the Financing Installment for the next occurring payment under the applicable Blanket Insurance Premium Financing Arrangement and/or (2) with respect to any Insurance Premiums not covered by a Blanket Insurance Premium Financing Arrangement, on each Payment Date, one-twelfth of the Insurance Premiums that Lender estimates will be payable for the renewal of the coverage afforded by the Policies upon the expiration thereof in order to accumulate with Lender sufficient funds to pay all such Insurance Premiums at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the Policies (said amounts in (i) and (ii) above hereinafter called the "Tax and Insurance Impound Fund"). Such amounts will be transferred by Lender to a Subaccount (the "Tax and Insurance Subaccount"). Lender will apply the Tax and Insurance Impound Fund to payments of Taxes and Insurance Premiums required to be made by Borrower pursuant to Sections 5.2 and 7.1 hereof and/or to payments due to the applicable finance company under the applicable Blanket Insurance Premium Financing Arrangement, as applicable. In making any payment relating to the Tax and Insurance Impound Fund, Lender may do so according to any bill, statement or estimate procured from the appropriate public office (with respect to Taxes) or insurer or agent (with respect to Insurance Premiums), without inquiry into the accuracy of such bill, statement or estimate or into the validity of any tax, assessment, sale, forfeiture, tax lien or title or claim thereof. If the amount of the Tax and Insurance Impound Fund shall exceed the amounts due for Taxes and Insurance Premiums pursuant to Sections 5.2 and 7.1 hereof, Lender shall, in its sole discretion, return any excess to Borrower or credit such excess against future payments to be made to the Tax and Insurance Impound Fund. In allocating such excess, Lender may deal with the person shown on the records of Lender to be the owner of the Property. If at any time Lender determines that the Tax and Insurance Impound Fund is not or will not be sufficient to pay the items set forth in (i) and (ii) above, Lender shall notify Borrower of such determination and Borrower shall increase its monthly payments to Lender by the amount that Lender estimates is sufficient to make up the deficiency at least thirty (30) days prior to delinquency of the Taxes and/or expiration of the Policies, as the case may be. All earnings of interest on the Tax and Insurance Impound Fund shall become part of the Tax and Insurance Impound Fund and shall be disbursed in accordance with this Section 3.3. If Lender so elects at any time, Borrower shall provide, at Borrower's expense, a tax service contract for the Term issued by a tax reporting agency acceptable to Lender. If Lender does not so elect, Borrower shall reimburse Lender for the cost of making annual tax searches throughout the Term.

 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 3.3, with respect to the Initial Blanket Insurance Premium Deposit, and the required monthly payments required under clause (ii) above through the end of the current policy year, the parties agree as follows: For the period from the date hereof through August 1, 2005, the Property will be covered by a blanket insurance policy as described in Section 7.1.4, but instead of participating in the Blanket Insurance Premium Financing Arrangement, Borrower will pay its allocable share of the Insurance Premiums in a single installment, due approximately 30 days after the date hereof. Borrower's allocable share of the annual Insurance Premiums for the blanket policy for the period from the date hereof through August 1, 2005 is the Initial Blanket Insurance Premium Deposit. Borrower has deposited the Initial Blanket Insurance Premium Deposit in the Tax and Insurance Impound Fund on the date hereof (as set forth in clause (ii)(A) in the immediately preceding paragraph); Borrower will notify Lender in writing at least ten (10) days in advance of the date when such Insurance Premium is due, whereupon Lender will apply such amount to the payment of

 

 

28


 

 

Borrower's allocable share of the blanket policy Insurance Premium. On the Payment Dates in May, June and July of 2005, Borrower will pay to Lender for deposit in the Tax and Insurance Impound Fund the sum of $18,745.00 per month. On each Payment Date commencing with the Payment Date occurring in August, 2005, Borrower shall make payments into the Tax and Insurance Impound Fund as set forth in the preceding paragraph.

 

Section 3.4   Rollover Reserve/Rent Credit Subaccounts.   Rollover Reserve. Borrower shall pay to Lender $2,160,000 on the date hereof, and Lender will transfer such amount into a Subaccount (the "Rollover Reserve Subaccount"). Borrower shall also pay to Lender for transfer into the Rollover Reserve Subaccount all Lease Termination Payments received by Borrower with respect to Material Leases; provided, however, once Borrower has provided to Lender evidence reasonably acceptable to Lender that the space under the Lease that was the subject of such Lease Termination Payment has been re-tenanted and all Approved Leasing Expenses in connection with such space have been paid, Lender shall (provided no Event of Default is then continuing) disburse to Borrower any remaining portion of the subject Lease Termination Payment. Provided that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Lender shall disburse funds held in the Rollover Reserve Subaccount to Borrower, within fifteen (15) days after the delivery by Borrower to Lender of a request therefor (but not more often than once per month), in increments of at least $5,000, provided (i) such disbursement is for an Approved Leasing Expense; (ii) with respect to disbursements in excess of $100,000, Lender shall have (if it desires) verified (by an inspection conducted at Borrower's expense) performance of any construction work associated with such Approved Leasing Expense; and (iii) the request for disbursement is accompanied by (A) an Officer's Certificate certifying (1) that such funds will be used only to pay (or reimburse Borrower for) Approved Leasing Expenses and a description thereof, (2) that all outstanding trade payables (other than those to be paid from the requested disbursement or those constituting Permitted Indebtedness) have been paid in full, (3) that the same has not been the subject of a previous disbursement, and (4) that all previous disbursements have been used only to pay (or reimburse Borrower for) the previously identified Approved Leasing Expenses, and (B) reasonably detailed supporting documentation as to the amount, necessity and purpose therefor. Any such disbursement of more than $100,000 to pay (rather than reimburse) Approved Leasing Expenses may, at Lender's option, be made by joint check payable to Borrower and the payee of such Approved Leasing Expenses. Without limiting the provisions of this Section 3.4.1, Borrower agrees that it will pay for those tenant improvement allowances set forth in Schedule 7 attached hereto within the time period required for the same, and Borrower shall be entitled to draw funds from the Rollover Reserve Subaccount for payment of the same (subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 3.4.1).

 

3.4.1 Rent Holdback Reserve. Borrower shall pay to Lender $625,168 on the date hereof, and Lender will transfer such amount into a Subaccount (the "Rent Holdback Subaccount"). Funds in the Rent Holdback Subaccount shall be allocated to simulate the full unabated base rent payments for the Leases identified on Schedule 6 attached hereto (i.e., the difference between the amount of rent currently being paid under such Leases, and the full unabated amount of rent payable pursuant to the terms of such Leases, after the expiration of all rent abatement periods set forth in such Leases), as more particularly set forth on Schedule 6 with respect to the breakdown and specific allocation of monthly rent holdback funds allocated for each such Lease. Provided no Event of Default is continuing, on each Payment Date set forth

 

 

29


 

 

on Schedule 6, Lender shall disburse funds held in the Rent Holdback Subaccount (in the amounts set forth on Schedule 6 with respect to each such Payment Date) (x) if no Cash Management Period is then continuing, directly into the Clearing Account and (y) if a Cash Management Period is then continuing, directly into the Deposit Account (i.e., at the "top of the waterfall"), and shall be applied in accordance with the priority of payments set forth in Section 3.9(a) (i.e., in the same manner as Rents that are deposited into the Deposit Account on each Payment Date during the continuance of a Cash Management Period).

 

Section 3.5   Casualty/Condenmation Subaccount. Borrower shall pay, or cause to be paid, to Lender all Proceeds or Awards due to any Casualty or Condemnation to be transferred to a Subaccount (the "Casualty/Condemnation Subaccount") in accordance with the provisions of Article 7. All amounts in the Casualty/Condemnation Subaccount shall be disbursed in accordance with the provisions of Article 7.

 

Section 3.6   Security Deposits. Borrower shall keep all security deposits actually paid to Borrower under Leases at a separately designated account under Borrower's control at the Clearing Bank (and in the case of a letter of credit received after the date hereof; assigned with full power of attorney and executed sight drafts to Lender) so that the security deposits shall not be commingled with any other funds of Borrower (such account, the "Security Deposit Account"). After the occurrence of an Event of Default which is continuing, Borrower shall, upon Lender's request, if permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, turn over to Lender the security deposits (and any interest theretofore earned thereon) under Leases, to be held by Lender in a Subaccount (the "Security Deposit Subaccount") subject to the terms of the Leases. Security deposits held in the Security Deposit Subaccount will be released by Lender upon notice from Borrower together with such evidence as Lender may reasonably request that such security deposit is required to be returned to a tenant pursuant to the terms of a Lease or may be applied as Rent pursuant to the rights of Borrower under the applicable Lease. Any letter of credit or other instrument that Borrower receives in lieu of a cash security deposit under any Lease entered into after the date hereof shall (i) be maintained in full force and effect in the full amount required by the applicable Lease unless replaced by a cash deposit as hereinabove described and (ii) if permitted pursuant to any Legal Requirements, name Lender as payee or mortgagee thereunder (or at Lender's option, be fully assignable to Lender).

 

Section 3.7 Cash Collateral Subaccount. If a Cash Management Period shall have commenced, then on the immediately succeeding Payment Date and on each Payment Date thereafter during the continuance of such Cash Management Period, all Available Cash shall be paid to Lender, which amounts shall be transferred by Lender into a Subaccount (the "Cash Collateral Subaccount") as cash collateral for the Debt. Any funds in the Cash Collateral Account and not previously disbursed or applied shall be disbursed to Borrower upon the termination of such Cash Management Period. Lender shall have the right, but not the obligation, at any time during the continuance of an Event of Default, in its sole and absolute discretion to apply all sums then on deposit in the Cash Collateral Subaccount to the Debt, in such order and in such manner as Lender shall elect in its sole and absolute discretion, including to make a prepayment of Principal (together which the applicable Yield Maintenance Premium applicable thereto). Additionally, Lender shall have the right, but not the obligation, at any time subsequent to the second Calculation Date following the commencement of a DSCR Cash Management Period (whether or not an Event of Default is then continuing), in its sole and

 

 

30


 

 

absolute discretion to apply all sums then on deposit in the Cash Collateral Subaccount towards a partial Defeasance of the Loan (together with any Defeasance costs associated therewith), and Borrower shall execute such documents and take such other actions necessary to satisfy the Defeasance requirements set forth in Section 2.3.3 hereof (to the extent applicable to a partial involuntary Defeasance).

 

Section 3.8   Grant of Security Interest; Application of Funds. As security for payment of the Debt and the performance by Borrower of all other terms, conditions and provisions of the Loan Documents, Borrower hereby pledges and assigns to Lender, and grants to Lender a security interest in, all Borrower's right, title and interest in and to the Clearing Account, the Deposit Account and all Subaccounts, all Rents and in and to all payments to or monies held in the Clearing Account, the Deposit Account, and all Subaccounts created pursuant to this Agreement (collectively, the "Cash Management Accounts"). Borrower hereby grants to Lender a continuing security interest in, and agrees to hold in trust for the benefit of Lender, all Rents in its possession prior to the (i) payment of such Rents to Lender or (ii) deposit of such Rents into the Deposit Account until such Rents are released to Borrower from the Clearing Account pursuant to this Agreement and the Cash Management Agreement. Borrower shall not, without obtaining the prior written consent of Lender, further pledge, assign or grant any security interest in any Cash Management Account, or permit any Lien to attach thereto, or any levy to be made thereon, or any UCC Financing Statements, except those naming Lender as the secured party, to be filed with respect thereto. This Agreement is, among other things, intended by the parties to be a security agreement for purposes of the UCC. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender may apply any sums in any Cash Management Account in any order and in any manner as Lender shall elect in Lender's discretion without seeking the appointment of a receiver and without adversely affecting the rights of Lender to foreclose the Lien of the Mortgage or exercise its other rights under the Loan Documents. Cash Management Accounts shall not constitute trust funds and may be commingled with other monies held by Lender. Provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, at the direction of Borrower, Lender shall deposit the amounts held in the Cash Management Accounts in Permitted Investments selected by Borrower. All investment earnings which accrues on the funds in any Cash Management Account shall accrue for the benefit of Borrower and shall be taxable to Borrower and shall be added to and disbursed in the same manner and under the same conditions as the principal sum on which said interest accrued. Lender shall not be responsible for any losses resulting from the investment of the Funds or for obtaining any specific level or percentage of earnings on such investment. Upon repayment in full of the Debt or defeasance of the Loan, all remaining funds in the Cash Management Accounts, if any, shall be promptly disbursed to Borrower.

 

Section 3.9 Property Cash Flow Allocation. (a) During any Cash Management Period, all Rents deposited into the Deposit Account during the immediately preceding Interest Period shall be applied on each Payment Date as follows in the following order of priority:

(i)    First, to make payments into the Tax and Insurance Subaccount as required under Section . 3.3;

(ii)    Second, to pay the monthly portion of the fees charged by the Deposit Bank in accordance with the Cash Management Agreement; (iii) Third, to Lender to pay the Monthly Debt Service Payment Amount due on such Payment Date (plus, if applicable, interest at the Default Rate and all other amounts, other than those described under other clauses of this Section 3.9(a), then due to Lender under the Loan Documents); (iv) Fourth, to Borrower the monthly amount set forth in

 

 

31


 

 

the Approved Budget for the following month as being necessary for payment of Approved Operating Expenses and Approved Capital Expenses at the Property for such month, plus the amount for Budgeted Variances (as defined in the Cash Management Agreement);  (v) Fifth, after the consummation of a Securitization, to pay the pro rata portion of the expenses described in Section 9.1.4; and (vi) Lastly, to make payments in an amount equal to all remaining Available Cash on such Payment Date into the Cash Collateral Subaccount in accordance with Section 3.7.

 

(b)    The failure of Borrower to make all of the payments required under clauses (i) through (vi) of Section 3.9(a) in full on each Payment Date shall constitute an Event of Default under this Agreement; provided,   however, if adequate funds are available in the Deposit Account for such payments, the failure by the Deposit Bank to allocate such funds into the appropriate Subaccounts shall not constitute an Event of Default.

 

(c)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 3.9, after the occurrence and continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, Lender may apply all Rents deposited into the Deposit Account and other proceeds of repayment in such order and in such manner as Lender shall elect.

Borrower has been duly organized and is validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the state of its formation, with requisite power and authority, and all rights, licenses, permits and authorizations, governmental or otherwise, necessary to own its properties and to transact the business in which it is now engaged. Borrower is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction where it is required to be so qualified in connection with its properties, business and operations. Borrower is a Special Purpose Bankruptcy Remote Entity.

 

Section 4.2   Authorization; Valid Execution and Delivery; Enforceability.  Borrower has taken all necessary actions for the authorization of the borrowing on account of the Loan and for the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents, including, without limitation,

. that those members of Borrower whose approval is required by the terms of Borrower's organizational documents have duly approved the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents and have authorized execution and delivery thereof by the respective signatories. To the best of Borrower's knowledge, no other consent by any local, state or federal agency is required in connection with the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents. All of the Loan Documents requiring execution by Borrower have been duly and validly executed and delivered by Borrower. All of the Loan Documents constitute valid, legal and binding obligations of Borrower and are fully enforceable against Borrower in accordance with their terms by Lender and its successors, transferees and assigns, subject only to bankruptcy laws, and general principles of equity, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, moratorium, receivership or other similar laws relating to or affecting the rights of creditors. All consents, approvals,

 

 

32


 

 

authorizations, orders or filings with any court or governmental agency or body, if any, required for the execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents by Borrower have been obtained or made.

 

Section 4.3 No Conflict/Violation of Law. The execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents by Borrower will not cause or constitute a default under or conflict with the organizational documents of Borrower, any Guarantor or any general partner or managing member of Borrower or any Guarantor. The execution, delivery and performance of the obligations imposed on Borrower under the Loan Documents will not cause Borrower to be in default, including after due notice or lapse of time or both, under the provisions of any agreement, judgment or order to which Borrower is a party or by which Borrower is bound.

 

Section 4.4 No Litigation. Except as otherwise disclosed on Schedule 2, to the best of Borrower's knowledge there are no pending actions, suits or proceedings, arbitrations or governmental investigations against the Property, an adverse outcome of which would materially affect Borrower's performance under the Note, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

 

Section 4.5 No Defenses. The Note, this Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents are not subject to any right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense, nor would the operation of any of the terms of the Note, this Agreement, the Mortgage or any of the other Loan Documents, or the exercise of any right thereunder, render this Agreement or the Mortgage unenforceable, in whole or in part, or subject to any right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense, including the defense of usury.

 

Section 4.6   Title. Borrower has good and marketable fee simple title to the Property constituting real property (other than the beneficial interests), and good title to the Equipment, subject to no liens, charges or encumbrances other than the Permitted Encumbrances and liens, charges or encumbrances otherwise expressly permitted by the Loan Documents. The possession of the Property has been peaceful and undisturbed and title thereto has not been disputed or questioned to the best of Borrower's knowledge. The Permitted Encumbrances do not and will not materially and adversely affect (1) the ability of Borrower to pay in full the principal and interest on the Note in a timely manner or (2) the use of the Property for the use currently being made thereof, the operation of the Property as currently being operated or the value of the Property. Upon the execution by Borrower and the recording of the Mortgage, and upon the filing of UCC-1 financing statements or amendments thereto, the Lender will have a valid first lien on the Property and a valid security interest in the Equipment subject to no liens, charges or encumbrances other than the Permitted Encumbrances and liens, charges or encumbrances otherwise expressly permitted by the Loan Documents.

 

Section 4.7 No Insolvency or Judgment; No Bankruptcy Filing. Neither Borrower, nor any general partner or member of Borrower, nor any Guarantor of the Loan is currently (a) the subject of or a party to any completed or pending bankruptcy, reorganization or insolvency proceeding; or (b) the subject of any judgment unsatisfied of record or docketed in any court of the state in which the Property is located or in any other court located in the United States. The Loan will not render Borrower nor any general partner or member of Borrower insolvent. As used herein, the term "insolvent" means that the sum total of all of an entity's liabilities (whether secured or unsecured, contingent or fixed, or liquidated or unliquidated) is in

 

 

33


 

 

excess of the value of all such entity's non-exempt assets, i.e., all of the assets of the entity that are available to satisfy claims of creditors. Borrower is not contemplating either the filing of a petition by it under any state or federal bankruptcy or insolvency law or the liquidation of all or a major portion of its property (a "Bankruptcy Proceeding"), and Borrower has no knowledge of any Person contemplating the filing of any such petition against it. In addition, except as described on Schedule 2 attached hereto, neither Borrower nor any principal nor Affiliate of Borrower has been a party to, or the subject of a Bankruptcy Proceeding for the past ten years.

 

Section 4.8 Misstatements of Fact. No statement of fact made in the Loan Documents contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact known to Borrower or its Affiliates necessary to make statements contained herein or therein not misleading. There is no fact presently known to Borrower which has not been disclosed which materially adversely affects, nor as far as Borrower can reasonably foresee, might materially adversely affect the business, operations or condition (financial or otherwise) of Borrower.

 

Section 4.9   Tax Filings. To the extent required, Borrower has filed (or has obtained effective extensions for filing) all federal, state and local tax returns required to be filed and, except as otherwise disclosed to Lender in writing, has paid or made adequate provision for the payment of all federal, state and local taxes, charges and assessments payable by Borrower pursuant to such returns or any notice of assessment received by Borrower. Borrower believes that its tax returns (if any) properly reflect the income and taxes of Borrower for the periods covered thereby, subject only to reasonable adjustments required by the Internal Revenue Service or other applicable tax authority upon audit. Borrower does not have any knowledge of any basis for additional assessment with respect to such taxes other than a possible reassessment of the Property for real estate tax purposes resulting from transactions occurring in connection with the acquisition of the Property on or prior to the date hereof.

Borrower is not aware of any illegal activities relating to controlled substances on the Property. To Borrower's knowledge, all certifications, permits, licenses and approvals, including, without limitation, certificates of completion and occupancy permits required for the legal use, occupancy and operation of the Property as an office building (collectively, the "Licenses"), have been obtained and are in full force and effect.

No legal proceedings are pending or, to the knowledge of Borrower, threatened with respect to the zoning of the Property. To the Borrower's knowledge, neither the zoning nor any other right to construct, use or operate the Property is in any way dependent upon or related to any property other than the Property.

Section 4.13 Federal Reserve Regulations; Investment Company Act. No part of the proceeds of the Loan will be used for the purpose of purchasing or acquiring any "margin stock" within the meaning of Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or for any other purpose that would be inconsistent with such Regulation U or any other regulation of such Board of Governors, or for any purpose prohibited by Legal Requirements or any Loan Document.

No portion of the Property is located in an area as identified by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as an area having special flood hazards. The Property has not been damaged by fire, water, wind or other cause of loss which has not been fully restored in all material respects.

 

Section 4.16 Leases. To Borrower's best knowledge the rent roll attached hereto as Schedule 3 together with the schedules and the exhibits attached to such rent roll (collectively, the "Rent Roll") is true, complete and correct and the Property is not subject to any Leases other than the Leases described in the Rent Roll and any existing subleases thereunder and the Master Lease.
