Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
As previously disclosed by Skechers U.S.A., Inc. ( the "Company"), the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement dated April 12, 2010 (but effective as of January 30, 2010) with HF Logistics I, LLC ("HF") through Skechers RB, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company ("Skechers RB"), regarding the ownership and management of HF Logistics-SKX, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the "JV"). The purpose of the JV was to acquire and develop real property consisting of approximately 110 acres situated in Moreno Valley, California (the "Property"), and to construct approximately 1,820,000 square feet of buildings and other improvements (the "Project"), which was completed and leased to the Company as a distribution facility in November 2011. The Company, through Skechers RB, made an initial cash capital contribution of $30.0 million and HF made an initial capital contribution of land to the JV in April 2010.
On April 30, 2010, the JV, through HF Logistics-SKX T1, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly-owned subsidiary of the JV ("HF-T1"), entered into a construction loan agreement with Bank of America, N.A. as administrative agent and as a lender, and Raymond James Bank, FSB, as a lender (collectively, the "Construction Loan Agreement"), pursuant to which the JV obtained a loan of up to $55.0 million used for construction of the Project on the Property (the "Original Loan"). On November 16, 2012, HF-T1 executed a modification to the Construction Loan Agreement (the "Modification"), which added OneWest Bank, FSB as a lender, increased the borrowings under the Original Loan to $80.0 million and extended the maturity date of the Original Loan to October 30, 2015.
On August 11, 2015, the JV through HF-T1 entered into an amended and restated loan agreement with Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent and as a lender, and CIT Bank, N.A. (formerly known as OneWest Bank, FSB) and Raymond James Bank, N.A., as lenders (collectively, the "Amended Loan Agreement"), which amends and restates in its entirety the Construction Loan Agreement and the Modification.
As of the date of the Amended Loan Agreement, the outstanding principal balance of the Original Loan was $77.3 million. In connection with this refinancing of the Original Loan, the JV, the Company and HF agreed that the Company would make an additional capital contribution of $38.7 million to the JV for the JV through HF-T1 to use to make a prepayment on the Original Loan. The prepayment equaled the Company’s 50% share of the outstanding principal balance of the Original Loan. Under the Amended Loan Agreement, the parties agreed that the lenders would loan $70.0 million to HF-T1 (the "New Loan"). The New Loan is being used by the JV through HF-T1 to (i) refinance all amounts owed on the Original Loan after taking into account the prepayment described above, (ii) pay $0.9 million in accrued interest, loan fees and other closing costs associated with the New Loan and (iii) make a distribution of $31.3 million less the amounts described in clause (ii) to HF. Pursuant to the Amended Loan Agreement, the interest rate on the New Loan is the LIBOR Daily Floating Rate (as defined in the Amended Loan Agreement) plus a margin of 2%. The maturity date of the New Loan is August 12, 2020, which HF-T1 has one option to extend by an additional 24 months, or until August 12, 2022, upon payment of a fee and satisfaction of certain customary conditions. On August 11, 2015, HF-T1 and Bank of America, N.A. entered into an ISDA master agreement (together with the schedule related thereto, the "Swap Agreement") to govern derivative and/or hedging transactions that HF-T1 concurrently entered into with Bank of America, N.A. Pursuant to the Swap Agreement, on August 14, 2015, HF-T1 entered into a confirmation of swap transactions (the "Interest Rate Swap") with Bank of America, N.A. The Interest Rate Swap has an effective date of August 12, 2015 and a maturity date of August 12, 2022, subject to early termination at the option of HF-T1, commencing on August 1, 2020. The Interest Rate Swap fixes the effective interest rate on the New Loan at 4.08% per annum. The Amended Loan Agreement and the Swap Agreement are subject to customary covenants and events of default. Bank of America, N.A. also acts as a lender and syndication agent under the Company's credit agreement dated June 30, 2015.
On August 11, 2015, the Company, through Skechers RB, entered into the First Amendment to the Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement with HF, regarding the JV, for the purpose of reflecting the actions described above and certain changes to the Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement necessitated by these actions.
This summary does not purport to be complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the First Amendment to the Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement and the Amended Loan Agreement included as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2, respectively, to this filing. Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2 are incorporated by reference into this Item 1.01.
Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.
The execution of the Amended Loan Agreement described in Item 1.01 constitutes the creation of direct financial obligations of the JV, of which the Company owns a 50% equity interest. The disclosure set forth above under Item 1.01 is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 2.03.
Item 9.01 Financial Statements and Exhibits.
10.1 First Amendment to Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement dated August 11, 2015 between Skechers R.B., LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of the Registrant, and HF Logistics I, LLC, regarding the ownership and management of the joint venture, HF Logistics-SKX, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company.
10.2 Amended and Restated Loan Agreement dated as of August 12, 2015, by and among HF Logistics-SKX T1, LLC, which is a wholly owned subsidiary of a joint venture entered into between HF Logistics I, LLC, and Skechers R.B., LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of the Registrant, Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent and as a lender, and CIT Bank, N.A. and Raymond James Bank, N.A., as lenders.

Agreement of the Company dated April 12, 2010 but effective as of January 30, 2010 (as amended from

but not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the LLC Agreement.
WHEREAS, the T1 Subsidiary is party to that certain Construction Loan Agreement dated April
30, 2010 by and among the T1 Subsidiary, Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, and the
lenders party thereto from time to time (as amended prior to the date hereof, the Original
Loan Agreement). As of the date hereof, the unpaid principal amount of the loan outstanding
under the Original Loan Agreement is Seventy-Seven Million Three Hundred Twelve Thousand Dollars
($77,312,000).
WHEREAS, in connection with the refinancing of the Original Loan Agreement, the HF Member has
requested that the T1 Subsidiary borrow additional funds in order to provide the proceeds necessary
for the Company to distribute an amount equal to the HF Distribution (defined below) to the HF
Member.
WHEREAS, in connection with the refinancing of the Original Loan Agreement, the Members have
agreed that the T1 Subsidiary will be making a prepayment of fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding
principal balance due under the Original Loan Agreement.
WHEREAS, in order to make the principal prepayment described above, the Skechers Member will
be making an additional capital contribution to the Company in the amount of such prepayment (the
"Skechers Prepayment Contribution), and the Company will contribute such amount to the T1
Subsidiary for the sole purpose of making a prepayment of the outstanding principal balance due
under the Original Loan Agreement (provided that for convenience, but only to the extent a
prepayment of fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding principal balance due under the Original Loan
Agreement is concurrently made, the proceeds of the Skechers Prepayment Contribution may be
allocated between such prepayment and the HF Distribution as determined by the Company).
WHEREAS, substantially concurrently herewith, the T1 Subsidiary is entering into that certain
Amended and Restated Loan Agreement by and among the Company, as borrower, Bank of America, N.A.,
as administrative agent, and the lenders party thereto from time to time (as amended, restated,

provisions hereof, the Loan Agreement), pursuant to which the lenders under the Loan
Agreement are providing the T1 Subsidiary a term loan in the original principal amount of Seventy

(the HF Distribution). As used herein, the term HF Distribution Amount means

WHEREAS, the Members desire to amend the LLC Agreement as set forth herein to reflect the
foregoing and certain changes to the LLC Agreement necessitated by the foregoing.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals and the mutual covenants and
agreements contained in the LLC Agreement and in this Amendment, and for other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Members hereby
agree as follows:
1. Skechers Prepayment Contribution. On the Effective Date, the Skechers Member shall
make the Skechers Prepayment Contribution to the Company, which the Company shall immediately
contribute to the T1 Subsidiary, and the T1 Subsidiary shall use all of such proceeds of the
Skechers Prepayment Contribution to pay down the principal balance under the Original Loan
Agreement by a like amount (provided that for convenience, but only to the extent a prepayment of
fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding principal balance due under the Original Loan Agreement is
concurrently made, the proceeds of the Skechers Prepayment Contribution may be allocated between
such prepayment and the HF Distribution as determined by the Company). The HF Member hereby
consents to and approves of the Skechers Prepayment Contribution by the Skechers Member and agrees
that (a) the Skechers Prepayment Contribution shall be treated as a Capital Contribution under the
LLC Agreement and (b) the amount of the Unrecovered Contributions of the Skechers Member shall be
increased, as of the Effective Date, by the Skechers Prepayment Contribution.
2. HF Distribution. On or promptly following the Effective Date, an amount equal to
the HF Distribution will be distributed from the T1 Subsidiary to the Company, and the Company will
make the HF Distribution to the HF Member. The Skechers Member hereby consents to and approves of
the HF Distribution, and the Members agree that the amount of the Unrecovered Contributions of the
HF Member shall be decreased, as of the Effective Date, by the HF Distribution Amount.
3. Distributions and Capital Transactions.
(a) Section 5.2 of the LLC Agreement is hereby amended to read as follows:
Section 5.2 Distributions. Except as provided in Section 5.2(b) and
5.2(c) below, distributions of Available Cash shall be made to the Members in the
following order of priority set forth in Section 5.2(a):
(a) To the Members pari passu in proportion to their respective
Distribution Percentages.
(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing priority set forth in Section
5.2(a), the following special distribution rules shall apply: If a Member
fails to make an Additional Capital Contribution under Section 4.1.2, and
the Non-Defaulting Member elects to make an Additional Capital
Contribution under Section 4.1.5(d)(i), then the amount of such Additional
Capital Contribution shall accrue a preferred return at the rate of 11%
per annum, and the total amount of such Additional Capital Contribution,
plus such preferred return, shall become a priority distribution to be
made before any other distributions to the Members under Section 5.2(a),
or pursuant to Section 13.2.1(c), and before any repayment of any loan
payable to the Defaulting Member under Article 6.
(c) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement,
before any distribution of Available Cash under Article 5 (including any
distribution or special distribution under Sections 5.2(a) or 5.2(b)), any
payments of other loans due to any Member as described in Article 4 or
Article 6 of the Agreement, and any payments due to any Member under the
buy-sell provisions in Article 8 of the Agreement or in any liquidation or
disposition of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their
respective assets or property is made, Skechers shall be entitled to
receive distributions in cash equal in amounts to the principal, interest
(with interest calculated at the fixed rate which would be applicable
after giving effect to any swap contract with respect to the 2015 Project
Loan (as such term is defined in that certain First Amendment to Amended
and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of HF Logistics-SKX, LLC)
or any refinancing or replacement financing thereof), fees (including all
swap costs), costs and expenses paid by the T1 Subsidiary to the holders
of the 2015 Project Loan or any refinancing or replacement financing
thereof during the month (including any payments on maturity) in which the
distribution is made. Distributions under this clause (c), other than
distributions under this clause (c) in an amount equal to the monthly
principal payments made on the 2015 Project Loan, shall not reduce the
Unrecovered Contributions of Skechers. The Members further agree that, if
the Skechers Member receives any distribution of Available Cash from a
refinancing of the 2015 Project Loan (or any replacement financing) in
excess of the distribution (if any) received by the HF Member from such
refinancing or replacement financing (such excess being referred to in
this clause (c) as the Refinancing Excess Distribution), the amount of
the distributions to be paid to the Skechers Member under this Section
5.2(c) shall be reduced to the extent of the additional debt service
resulting from such Refinancing Excess Distribution.
(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 5.2(a)-(c) of the LLC Agreement or any
other provision to the contrary in the LLC Agreement, all Capital Transaction Proceeds
shall be paid to the Skechers Member until the Unrecovered Contributions of both Members
are equal, and any excess distributions shall be made in accordance with the Members
Distribution Percentages. As used herein, the following terms have the meanings
indicated:
"Capital Transaction means any of the following: (i) a sale,
exchange, transfer, assignment or other disposition of all or a portion of
any Company Asset (but not including sales in the ordinary course of
business of inventory, operating equipment or furniture, fixtures, and
equipment); (ii) any financing or refinancing of, or with respect to, any
Company Asset except for equipment leases or purchase money financing for
movables; (iii) any condemnation or transfer in lieu of condemnation of
all or a portion of any Company Asset; (iv) any collection in respect of
property, hazard, or casualty insurance (but not business interruption
insurance) or any damage award; or (v) any other transaction the proceeds
of which, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, are
considered to be capital in nature.
Capital Transaction Proceeds means all cash received by the Company
from a Capital Transaction, less the sum of the following for which
Capital Transaction Proceeds are used by the Company, (i) all expenses
paid or incurred in connection with such Capital Transaction, (ii) amounts
received from a Capital Transaction applied to repayment of indebtedness
(including the 2015 Project Loan), and (iii) such additions to reserves
for capital expenditures, liabilities or obligations of the Company or
other purposes as Skechers may determine to be necessary. All amounts
released from time to time from such reserves other than for application
to the purpose for which the reserve was established shall be deemed to be
Capital Transaction Proceeds.
4. Further Actions with Respect to Loans.
(a) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in the LLC Agreement, but subject to Section
7.1.4 of the LLC Agreement and except as provided in Section 4(b) of this Amendment, all actions,
consents, approvals or decisions to be made by the Company in connection with the Loans (including,
without limitation, any amendment of the 2015 Project Loan) or any other financing of the Project
or the pledge or encumbrance of Company Assets or assets of any Subsidiary shall only be made with
the consent of both Members, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld. Inasmuch as it is
the intent of the HF Member to refinance the 2015 Project Loan at maturity, the consent of the
Skechers Member shall only be required as to the terms and conditions of any such refinancing
(including, without limitation, the amount of such refinancing if the amount is in excess of the
principal then outstanding), and not as to whether the outstanding principal amount of the 2015
Project Loan should be paid off, paid down or refinanced. Without limiting the foregoing, the
Members hereby agree that Section 7.1.1(c) of the LLC Agreement is hereby amended to delete clause
(ii) and clause (iii) of Section 7.1.1(c).
(b) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in the LLC Agreement or Section 4(a) of this
Amendment, the Skechers Member may at any time, or from time to time, cause the T1 Subsidiary to
refinance the 2015 Project Loan or increase the principal amount of the 2015 Project Loan for the
purpose of distributing sufficient funds to the Company so that the Company may provide a
distribution to the Skechers Member (or an affiliate of the Skechers Member) up to an amount equal
to the difference between the Skechers Members Unrecovered Contribution and the HF Members
Unrecovered Contribution at such time (the Unrecovered Contribution Difference). The HF
Member hereby consents to the foregoing use of proceeds of such refinancing or increase, it being
understood and agreed that the HF Member shall not receive any proceeds of such refinancing or
increase until the Skechers Member has received the Unrecovered Contribution Difference as
described in the preceding sentence. To the extent that any such refinancing or increase to the
principal amount of the 2015 Project Loan results in Capital Transaction Proceeds (as defined in
this Amendment), such Capital Transaction Proceeds shall be distributed in the manner set forth in
Section 3(b) of this Amendment. The terms and loan documentation for such refinancing or increase
to the 2015 Project Loan shall be determined by the Skechers Member in its sole and absolute
discretion, without any required consent or approval by the HF Member; provided, however, that if
the interest rate applicable to such refinancing or increase is less favorable to the Company than
the terms of the 2015 Project Loan, arrangements shall be made (by a further amendment to the LLC
Agreement, or otherwise) such that the HF Member shall not, through July 31, 2022, be in a less
favorable economic position than it was immediately prior to such refinancing or increase.
(c) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in the LLC Agreement, if upon any
refinancing or extension of the 2015 Project Loan or any replacement or refinancing thereof (other
than a refinancing, extension or replacement financing under Section 4(b) of this Amendment) (the
"Subject Refinancing) the T1 Subsidiary is unable to obtain sufficient financing to cause
a distribution in the amount of the Unrecovered Contribution Difference to be made to the Company
(for further distribution to the Skechers Member), the HF Member hereby agrees to immediately make
a contribution to the Company (which amount shall be immediately distributed to the Skechers
Member) in the amount necessary so that, after giving effect to such Subject Refinancing, the
Unrecovered Contributions of both Members are equal (the HF Unrecovered Contribution
Difference Payment). If the HF Member fails to make the HF Unrecovered Contribution
Difference Payment as set forth above, the Skechers Member shall have all rights and remedies
available under the LLC Agreement, including, without limitation, Section 7 of this Amendment, and,
in addition, the HF Member shall immediately be deemed to have transferred and assigned all of its
Company Interests to the Skechers Member (for no additional consideration), the Skechers Member
shall be deemed to be the legal and beneficial owner of all such Company Interests and the HF
Member shall cease to be a Member of the Company and shall cease to have any rights or claims under
the LLC Agreement or with respect to the Company Interests. Without limiting the automatic nature
of the transfer of the Company Interests set forth in the preceding sentence, the HF Member hereby
agrees to take any and all actions reasonably requested by the Skechers Member to evidence such
transfer of the Company Interests, and the HF Member hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints
the Skechers Member and any officer or agent thereof, 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 the
HF Member and in the name of the HF Member or in its own name, for the purpose of taking any and
all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments which may be necessary
or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Section or Section 7 of this Amendment and to
evidence such transfer of the Company Interests by the HF Member to the Skechers Member in
accordance with this Section or Section 7 of this Amendment. The Members hereby agree that the HF
Member shall not be permitted to make demand for or request an Additional Capital Contribution or
an additional loan from Skechers for all or any part of the HF Unrecovered Contribution Difference
Payment (whether under Section 4.1.2 or Article 6 of the LLC Agreement or otherwise). THE HF
MEMBER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT IT FULLY UNDERSTANDS THAT ITS COMPANY INTERESTS AND ITS
INTEREST IN DISTRIBUTIONS AND CAPITAL MAY BE LOST FOR FAILING TO MAKE THE REQUIRED HF UNRECOVERED
CONTRIBUTION DIFFERENCE PAYMENT UNDER THIS SECTION 4(c). THE HF MEMBER FURTHER AGREES THAT A
BREACH OF ANY OF THE AGREEMENTS CONTAINED IN THIS SECTION 4(c) WILL CAUSE IRREPARABLE INJURY TO THE
SKECHERS MEMBER, THAT THE SKECHERS MEMBER DOES NOT HAVE AN ADEQUATE REMEDY AT LAW IN RESPECT OF
SUCH BREACH AND, AS A CONSEQUENCE, THAT EACH AND EVERY COVENANT AND AGREEMENT CONTAINED IN THIS
SECTION 4(c) SHALL BE SPECIFICALLY ENFORCEABLE AGAINST THE HF MEMBER, AND THAT THE HF MEMBER HEREBY
WAIVES AND AGREES NOT TO ASSERT ANY DEFENSES TO THE EFFECT THAT SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE OF SUCH
COVENANTS OR AGREEMENTS IS NOT AVAILABLE AS A REMEDY.
(d) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in the LLC Agreement, at the time the 2015
Project Loan or any replacement thereof is proposed to be refinanced (in whole or in part), the
maturity date thereof is proposed to be extended, the principal amount thereof is proposed to be
increased or the terms and conditions thereof are proposed to be changed in any material respect,
Skechers shall be entitled to notice of any such proposal (which notice shall set forth the terms
and conditions thereof), and Skechers (or one of its Affiliates) shall have the right to become the
lender to the T1 Subsidiary on the same terms and conditions so proposed, provided that Skechers
gives the HF Member notice of such election within five (5) Business Days after receipt of such
proposal.
5. Buy-Sell Provisions. The penultimate sentence of Section 8.3 of the LLC Agreement
is hereby amended to read as follows:
Provided, however, that the Stated Amount may not be less than an amount which
would result in the distribution to the Selling Member of at least the Selling
Members Unrecovered Contribution (or, if the Selling Member is Skechers, the
Unrecovered Contribution Difference (as such term is defined in the First
Amendment to Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of HF
Logistics-SKX, LLC, if greater), and the repayment of any loans owed by the
Company to the Selling Member as of the date of closing.
6. Repayment of 2015 Project Loan. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in
the LLC Agreement or otherwise, the Members hereby agree that if the obligations under the 2015
Project Loan or any replacement or refinancing thereof (other than a refinancing requested pursuant
to Section 4(b) of this Amendment) (the Subject Permanent Loan) become due at maturity,
by acceleration, as a result of the occurrence of any prepayment event or for any other reason
whatsoever (including, without limitation, the inability for any reason to refinance or replace the
Subject Permanent Loan), the HF Member shall be obligated to immediately contribute sufficient
funds to the Company (which the Company shall in turn contribute to the T1 Subsidiary) in order to
cause the repayment of any and all obligations (whether for principal, interest, fees, costs,
expenses or otherwise) due and payable under the Subject Permanent Loan and the loan documentation
therefor (the HF Repayment Contribution). If the HF Member fails to make the HF
Repayment Contribution as set forth above, the Skechers Member shall have all rights and remedies
available under the LLC Agreement, including, without limitation, Section 7 of this Amendment, and,
in addition, the Skechers Member shall have the right to (but shall not be obligated to) make a
contribution to the Company or the T1 Subsidiary in the amount of the HF Repayment Contribution in
order to cause the repayment of any and all obligations (whether for principal, interest, fees,
costs, expenses or otherwise) due and payable under the Subject Permanent Loan and the loan
documentation therefor (the Skechers Payoff Contribution). Notwithstanding any provision
to the contrary in the LLC Agreement or otherwise (including, without limitation, Sections 4.1.4
and 17.14 of the LLC Agreement), if Skechers makes the Skechers Payoff Contribution, the HF Member
shall immediately be deemed to have transferred and assigned all of its Company Interests to the
Skechers Member (for no additional consideration), the Skechers Member shall be deemed to be the
legal and beneficial owner of all such Company Interests and the HF Member shall cease to be a
Member of the Company and shall cease to have any rights or claims under the LLC Agreement or with
respect to the Company Interests. Without limiting the automatic nature of the transfer of the
Company Interests set forth in the preceding sentence, the HF Member hereby agrees to take any and
all actions reasonably requested by the Skechers Member to evidence such transfer of the Company
Interests, and the HF Member hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Skechers Member and
any officer or agent thereof, 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 the HF Member
and in the name of the HF Member or in its own name, for the purpose of taking any and all
appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments which may be necessary or
desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Section or Section 7 of this Amendment and to evidence
such transfer of the Company Interests by the HF Member to the Skechers Member in accordance with
this Section or Section 7 of this Amendment. The Members hereby agree that the HF Member shall not
be permitted to make demand for or request an Additional Capital Contribution or an additional loan
from Skechers for all or any part of the HF Repayment Contribution (whether under Section 4.1.2 or
Article 6 of the LLC Agreement or otherwise). THE HF MEMBER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT IT FULLY
UNDERSTANDS THAT ITS COMPANY INTERESTS AND ITS INTEREST IN DISTRIBUTIONS AND CAPITAL MAY BE LOST
FOR FAILING TO MAKE THE REQUIRED HF PREPAYMENT CONTRIBUTIONS UNDER THIS SECTION 6. THE HF MEMBER
FURTHER AGREES THAT A BREACH OF ANY OF THE AGREEMENTS CONTAINED IN THIS SECTION WILL CAUSE
IRREPARABLE INJURY TO THE SKECHERS MEMBER, THAT THE SKECHERS MEMBER DOES NOT HAVE AN ADEQUATE
REMEDY AT LAW IN RESPECT OF SUCH BREACH AND, AS A CONSEQUENCE, THAT EACH AND EVERY COVENANT AND
AGREEMENT CONTAINED IN THIS SECTION SHALL BE SPECIFICALLY ENFORCEABLE AGAINST THE HF MEMBER, AND
THAT THE HF MEMBER HEREBY WAIVES AND AGREES NOT TO ASSERT ANY DEFENSES TO THE EFFECT THAT SPECIFIC
PERFORMANCE OF SUCH COVENANTS OR AGREEMENTS IS NOT AVAILABLE AS A REMEDY.
7. Pledge of Company Interests by HF Member. To secure the prompt payment in full in
cash, and the prompt and full performance, of the obligations of the HF Member under Section 4(c)
and Section 6 of this Amendment, the HF Member hereby pledges to the Skechers Member and grants to
the Skechers Member a security interest in and to all of the HF Members Company Interests whether
now existing or hereafter arising (the Collateral). The security interest and pledge
created hereby shall continue in effect so long as any obligation is owed to the Skechers Member
under Section 4(c) or Section 6 of this Amendment. The agreements in this paragraph are a
continuing and irrevocable agreement of the HF Member. The Skechers Member may (and is hereby
authorized to) file with any filing office such financing statements, amendments, addenda,
continuations, terminations, assignments and other records (whether or not executed by HF Member)
as the Skechers Member may deem necessary in its sole discretion to perfect and to maintain
perfected its security interests in the Collateral. Such documents may designate the Skechers
Member as the secured party and the HF Member as the debtor, identify the Skechers Members
security interest in the Collateral, and contain any other items required by law or deemed
necessary by the Skechers Member. Upon the occurrence of a breach by the HF Member of its
obligations under Section 4(c) or Section 6 of the Amendment (each a HF Default), at the
option of the Skechers Member, exercisable by giving written notice to the HF Member of its
election to exercise this option, all rights of the HF Member to exercise the voting and other
consensual rights which it would otherwise be entitled to exercise with respect to the Company
Interests shall cease, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in the Skechers Member who
shall have the sole right to exercise such voting and other consensual rights. Furthermore, upon
the occurrence of an HF Default, the Skechers Member may pursue any remedy available under the LLC
Agreement or at law (including under the provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code) or in equity to
collect, enforce or satisfy any of the obligations then owing under this Amendment, whether by
acceleration or otherwise, all of which remedies may be pursued by the Skechers Member separately,
successively or simultaneously, and at the sole option of and in the sole discretion of the
Skechers Member, including the following specific remedies: (a) in accordance with applicable law,
to foreclose the liens and security interests relating to the Collateral by any available judicial
procedure or without judicial process, and to sell, assign or otherwise dispose of the Collateral
or any part thereof, either at public or private sale or at any brokers board or securities
exchange, in whole or in parts (without omitting the generality of the foregoing, the Collateral
may be sold in its entirety to one buyer or in parts to more than one buyer), for cash, on credit
or on future delivery, or otherwise, with or without representations or warranties, and upon such
terms as shall be acceptable to Skechers Member; and (b) whether or not any of the Collateral has
been effectively registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or other applicable laws,
the Skechers Member may, in its sole and absolute discretion, sell all or any part of the
Collateral at private sale in such manner and under such circumstances as the Skechers Member may
deem necessary or advisable in order that the sale may be lawfully conducted. Without limiting the
foregoing, the Skechers Member may (a) approach and negotiate with a limited number of potential
purchasers, and (b) restrict the prospective bidders or purchasers to Persons who will represent
and agree that they are purchasing the Collateral for their own account for investment and not with
a view to the distribution or resale thereof. In the event that any of the Collateral is sold at
private sale, the HF Member agrees that if the Collateral is sold for a price which the Skechers
Member in good faith believes to be reasonable, then (1) the sale shall be deemed to be
commercially reasonable in all respects, (2) the HF Member shall not be entitled to a credit
against the obligations owed in an amount in excess of the purchase price, and (3) the Skechers
Member shall not incur any liability or responsibility to the HF Member in connection therewith,
notwithstanding the possibility that a substantially higher price might have been realized at a
public sale. The HF Member recognizes that a ready market may not exist for Collateral which is
not regularly traded on a recognized securities exchange or in another recognized market, and that
a sale by the Skechers Member of any such Collateral for an amount substantially less than a pro
rata share of the fair market value of the issuers assets minus liabilities may be commercially
reasonable in view of the difficulties that may be encountered in attempting to sell Collateral
that is privately trade. The HF Member represents and covenants that it has and at all times shall
have good and marketable title to all Collateral in which the HF Member is purporting to grant a
security interest to the Skechers Member, it has not transferred, pledged or assigned any of its
interests in the Collateral since the original date of the LLC Agreement, and the Collateral shall
not at any time be transferred or assigned to any Person (other than the Skechers Member) or be
subject to any lien or encumbrance (other than in favor of the Skechers Member). The HF Member
represents that it has the right and power to pledge and grant to the Skechers Member a security
interest in the Collateral on the terms set forth in this Agreement.
8. Winding Up. Sections 13.2.1(b) and (c) of the LLC Agreement are hereby amended to
read as follows (and Sections 13.2.1(d) and (e) are hereby added as follows):
(b) second, to Skechers, until the Unrecovered Contributions of the Members
are equal;
(c) third, to the payment and discharge of all of the Companys Debt to the
Members, first with respect to any such Debt which has priority under any other
provision of this Agreement, and thereafter pro rata in accordance with amounts
owed to each such Member; and
(d) fourth, to the Members pari passu, in proportion to their respective
Unrecovered Contributions; and
(e) finally, the balance, if any, shall be distributed to the Members in the
order and priority set forth in Section 5.2.
9. Indemnity. The HF Member hereby indemnifies the Skechers Member and any Indemnitee
related to the Skechers Member for any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, expenses
(including legal fees and expenses), judgments, fines, settlements, and other amounts incurred by
the Skechers Member or such Indemnitee arising from any and all claims, demands, actions,
investigations, audits, suits, proceedings, or civil, criminal, administrative or investigative
actions brought by any Person relating to the treatment of the transactions described in this
Amendment as a sale or recharaterization of the transactions described in this Amendment as a sale.
10. Authorization to Execute the Guaranty Agreement. The Members hereby expressly
approve and authorize the execution by the T2 Subsidiary of a Guaranty Agreement and an
Environmental Indemnity Agreement in connection with the 2015 Project Loan.
11. Waiver of Right to Match". The Skechers Member hereby waives its right to become
the Permanent Lender in lieu of the Company entering into the 2015 Project Loan on the date of this
Agreement, as described in Section 6.2 of the LLC Agreement. The foregoing waiver applies only to
the 2015 Project Loan as the same exists on the date hereof and not to any amendment or refinancing
of the 2015 Project Loan or any other financing of the Project.
12. Miscellaneous.
(a) The LLC Agreement and any and all other agreements, documents or instruments now or
hereafter executed and delivered pursuant to the terms hereof, or pursuant to the terms of the LLC
Agreement as amended hereby, are hereby amended so that any reference therein to the LLC Agreement
shall mean a reference to the LLC Agreement as amended by this Amendment.
(b) Except as set forth in this Amendment, the LLC Agreement shall remain in full force and
effect, and the Members ratify and confirm their agreements and covenants contained therein.
(c) Any provision of this Amendment held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or
unenforceable shall not impair or invalidate the remainder of this Amendment, and this Amendment
shall be construed as if such invalid or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein,
and the Members shall amend this Amendment to the extent reasonably necessary to make such
provision valid and enforceable.
(d) The headings, captions, and arrangements used in this Amendment are for convenience only
and do not limit, amplify, or modify the terms of this Amendment.
(e) All terms of this Amendment shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be
enforceable by the parties and their respective heirs, legal representatives, successors, and
assigns.
(f) Any capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such
terms in the LLC Agreement.
(g) The parties hereby agree to execute such further documents and instruments, and to take
such further actions as may be necessary or appropriate, in order to carry out this Amendment.
(h) This Amendment may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an
original, but all of which shall constitute one Amendment after each party has signed such a
counterpart. Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Amendment by telefacsimile or electronic
mail shall be equally as effective as delivery of an original of this Amendment. Any party
delivering an executed counterpart of this Amendment by facsimile or electronic mail also shall
deliver an original counterpart of this Amendment, but the failure to deliver an original
counterpart shall not affect the validity, enforceability and binding effect of this Amendment.
(i) In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Amendment and the LLC
Agreement, the provisions of this Amendment shall prevail and control.
(j) The Members acknowledge that this Amendment shall be governed by the laws of Delaware,
without reference to its principles of conflict of laws.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Amendment has been executed by the parties hereto as of the day and
year 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 Administrative Agent and Lenders, evidence the agreements of Borrower,
Administrative Agent and Lenders with respect to the Loan. Borrower shall comply with all of the
Loan Documents.
This Agreement amends and restates in its entirety that certain Construction Loan Agreement
dated April 30, 2010 by and among Borrower, Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, for the
benefit of itself as a lender and for the other lenders from time to time a party thereto, and
Raymond James Bank, FSB as a lender (the Original Loan Agreement), as modified by Letter
Agreement dated June 11, 2010, Letter Agreement dated July 15, 2010, Letter Agreement dated
September 2, 2010, and Letter Agreement dated May 9, 2012, each by and among Borrower and Bank of
America, N.A., as administrative agent, for the benefit of itself as a lender and for the other
lenders, and Raymond James Bank, FSB as a lender, as further modified by Loan Extension Agreement
effective as of October 30, 2012 entered into by and among Borrower, Bank of America, N.A. as
administrative agent and as a lender and Raymond James Bank, N.A., (formerly known as Raymond James
Bank, FSB) as a lender, and as further modified by Modification to Construction Loan Agreement and
Other Loan Documents dated as of November 16, 2012 (the Modification Agreement), by and
among Borrower, Bank of America, N.A. as administrative agent for the benefit of itself as a
lender and for the other lenders, Raymond James Bank, N.A. as a lender and OneWest Bank, FSB (now
known as CIT Bank, N.A.) as a lender (all of the foregoing, collectively, the Prior Loan
Agreement) and hereby supersedes and the Prior Loan Agreement. The Original Loan Agreement
was entered into in connection with a loan made by Lenders to Borrower in the principal amount of
$55,000,000 (the Original Loan) and secured by, among other things, the Property. In
connection with the Modification Agreement, the principal balance of the Original Loan was
increased to $80,000,000 (the Existing Loan), and which Existing Loan, immediately prior
to this amendment and restatement, had an outstanding principal balance of $70,000,000. The Loan
is a modification and renewal of the Existing Loan and is made subject to the terms and conditions
of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The execution and delivery of this Agreement shall
not constitute a novation of the debt evidenced and secured by the Loan Documents.
1.2 Purpose. The proceeds of the Loan shall be used by Borrower to pay costs related to
the renewal of the indebtedness with respect to the Property, pursuing Borrowers business at the
Property, paying fees, costs and expenses relating to the Loan and for working capital purposes;
provided, however, Borrower shall not in any case directly or indirectly use the proceeds of the
Loan, or lend, contribute or otherwise make available such proceeds to any individual or entity, to
fund any activities of or business with any individual or entity, or in any Designated
Jurisdiction, that, at the time of such funding, is the subject of Sanctions or in any other manner
that will result in a violation by any individual or entity (including any individual or entity
participating in the transaction, whether as Lender, Administrative Agent or otherwise) of
Sanctions. It is understood that Borrower may distribute the proceeds of the Loan to its sole
member (HF Logistics-SKX, LLC) which may then use the proceeds for the purposes set forth above or
for any other purpose.
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 Lenders 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. Lenders Commitments to lend
pursuant to this Agreement shall expire and terminate automatically (a) if the Loan is prepaid in
full, and (b) upon the occurrence of a Default, and (c) on the Maturity Date. The Loan is not
revolving. Any amount repaid may not be reborrowed.
1.4 Interest Rates.The unpaid principal balance 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 LIBOR
Rate, computed as provided in Section 1.4.1 below.
1.4.1 Computations and Determinations. All computations of interest at the Base Rate (to
the extent applicable) shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be,
and actual days elapsed. All other computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis of
a 360-day year and actual days elapsed (which results in more fees or interest, as applicable,
being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year). Administrative Agent shall determine
the interest rate(s) applicable to the Principal Debt in accordance with this Agreement and its
determination thereof shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. The books and records
of Administrative Agent shall be prima facie evidence of all sums owing to Lenders from
time to time under the Loan, but the failure to record any such information shall not limit or
affect the obligations of Borrower under the Loan Documents.
1.4.2 Intentionally Omitted.
1.4.3 Reserves on LIBOR Rate Principal. Borrower shall pay to each Lender, as long as such
Lender shall be required to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of
or including Eurocurrency funds or deposits (currently known as Eurocurrency liabilities),
additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of the Loan bearing interest at the LIBOR Daily
Floating Rate equal to the actual costs of such reserves allocated to such principal by such Lender
(as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive), which shall
be due and payable on each date on which interest is payable on the Loan, provided Borrower
shall have received at least 10 days prior notice (with a copy to Administrative Agent) of such
additional interest from such Lender. If a Lender fails to give notice 10 days prior to the
relevant interest payment date, such additional interest shall be due and payable 10 days from
receipt of such notice.
1.4.4 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 four percent (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 amount that Lenders may be entitled to receive or action that Administrative Agent
and Lenders may be authorized to take as a result of such late payment, including any other remedy
Lenders may have and 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.
1.4.5 Default Rate. After the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default
(including the expiration of any applicable cure period), upon the request of the Required Lenders,
Administrative Agent, without notice or demand, may raise the rate of interest accruing on the
outstanding principal balance under any Loan Document by three hundred (300) basis points above the
rate of interest otherwise applicable (Default Rate), independent of whether
Administrative Agent accelerates the outstanding principal balance under any Loan Document.
1.5 Prepayment. Borrower may prepay the principal balance of the 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 written notice from Borrower of (i) Borrowers 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 the amount of $1,000 or
a larger integral multiple of $1,000 (unless the prepayment retires the outstanding balance of the
Loan in full); (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 and (d) concurrently with such prepayment, Borrower shall
(x) reduce the notional amount of any outstanding Swap Contract by the amount of such prepayment,
(y) pay all sums, if any, payable pursuant to such Swap Contract with respect to such reduction and
(z) provide evidence to Administrative Agent of Borrowers compliance with the foregoing
clauses (x) and (y). If the Loan is prepaid in full, any commitment of Lenders (if
any) for further advances shall automatically terminate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a
Default shall have occurred and be continuing as of the date that any prepayment is made,
Administrative Agent may apply such prepayment to all or such portions of the Indebtedness as
Administrative Agent determines in its sole discretion.
1.6 Payment Schedule and Maturity Date.
(a) The entire principal balance of the Loan then unpaid and all accrued interest then unpaid
shall be due and payable in full on the Maturity Date. Accrued unpaid interest shall be due and
payable in arrears on the 15th day of the first calendar month after the Closing Date
and on the same day of each succeeding calendar month thereafter until all principal and accrued
interest owing on the Loan shall have been fully paid and satisfied.
(b) Subject to the conditions set forth in Exhibit R, Borrower shall have one (1)
option to extend the then Maturity Date. Such option shall extend the Maturity from the Initial
Maturity Date to August 12, 2022 (such extension period is referred to herein as the Extension
Term).
(c) Principal payments on the Loan in the amount of One Hundred Twenty One Thousand Three
Hundred and No/100 Dollars ($121,300.00) shall be due and payable on the fifteenth (15) day of the
first calendar month after the Closing Date and on the same day of each succeeding calendar month
thereafter until all principal owing on the Loan shall have been fully paid and satisfied.
1.7 Payments.
(a) 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, for the account of the
respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at Administrative Agents Office in U.S. Dollars
and in immediately available funds not later than 12:00 p.m. (Administrative Agents Time) on the
date specified herein. Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its Pro Rata
Share (or other applicable share as provided herein) of such payment in like funds as received by
wire transfer to such Lenders Lending Office. All payments received by Administrative Agent after
12:00 p.m. (Administrative Agents Time) shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business
Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. If any payment to be made by
Borrower shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next
following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or
fees, as the case may be.
(b) For the avoidance of doubt, Administrative Agent will distribute payments to each Lender,
(i) on the date of receipt, if Administrative Agent receives such funds on or before 12:00 p.m.
(Administrative Agents Time), or (ii) on the Business Day following the date of receipt, if
Administrative Agent receives such funds after 12:00 p.m. (Administrative Agents Time). If
Administrative Agent fails to timely pay any amount to any Lender in accordance with this
Section 1.7, Administrative Agent shall pay to such Lender interest on such amount at the
greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by Administrative Agent in accordance with
banking industry rules on interbank compensation, for each day from the day such amount was to be
paid until it is paid to such Lender. Unless Administrative Agent shall have received notice from
Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to Administrative Agent for the account of
Lenders hereunder that Borrower will not make such payment, Administrative Agent may assume that
Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such
assumption, distribute to Lenders the amount due. In such event, if Borrower has not in fact made
such payment, then each of the Lenders severally agrees to repay to Administrative Agent forthwith
on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender immediately available funds with interest
thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding
the date of payment to Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate
determined by Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank
compensation.
(c) A notice of Administrative Agent to any Lender or to Borrower with respect to any amount
owing under this Section 1.7 shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.
1.8 Evidence of Debt. Amounts of the Loan funded 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, in the absence of manifest error, of the amounts of the Loan funded by Lenders
to Borrower, the interest and payments thereon, and all other sums owing to Administrative Agent
and each Lender from time to time under the Loan Documents. Any failure to so record such
information 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 or the obligations
of the Property under the Loan Documents. 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. Each Lender may attach schedules to its Note(s) and endorse thereon the date,
amount and maturity of the applicable Note and payments with respect thereto.

(a) Payments Free of Taxes; Obligation to Withhold; Payments on Account of Taxes.
(i) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of Borrower or Guarantor
under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes,
except as required by applicable Laws. If any applicable Laws (as determined in the good
faith discretion of Administrative Agent) require the deduction or withholding of any Tax
from any such payment by Administrative Agent or Borrower or Guarantor, then
Administrative Agent or Borrower or Guarantor shall be entitled to make such deduction or
withholding, upon the basis of the information and documentation to be delivered pursuant
to Section 2.1(e).
(ii) If Borrower or Guarantor or Administrative Agent shall be required by the Code
to withhold or deduct any Taxes, including both United States Federal backup withholding
and withholding taxes, from any payment, then (A) Administrative Agent shall withhold or
make such deductions as are determined by Administrative Agent to be required based upon
the information and documentation it has received pursuant to Section 2.1(e),
(B) Administrative Agent shall timely pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the
relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with the Code, and (C) to the extent that
the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes, the sum payable by
Borrower or Guarantor, as applicable, shall be increased as necessary so that after any
required withholding or the making of all required deductions (including deductions
applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.1) the applicable
Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such
withholding or deduction been made.
(iii) If Borrower or Guarantor or Administrative Agent shall be required by any
applicable Laws other than the Code to withhold or deduct any Taxes from any payment,
then (A) Borrower or Guarantor or Administrative Agent, as required by such Laws, shall
withhold or make such deductions as are determined by it to be required based upon the
information and documentation it has received pursuant to Section 2.1(e),
(B) Borrower or Guarantor or Administrative Agent, to the extent required by such Laws,
shall timely pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental
Authority in accordance with such Laws, and (C) to the extent that the withholding or
deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes, the sum payable by Borrower or
Guarantor, as applicable, shall be increased as necessary so that after any required
withholding or the making of all required deductions (including deductions applicable to
additional sums payable under this Section 2.1) the applicable Recipient receives
an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deduction
been made. Borrower shall cause Guarantor to comply with its obligations pursuant to
this Section 2.1.
(b) Payment of Other Taxes by Borrower or Guarantor. Without limiting the provisions
of Section 2.1(a) above, Borrower shall timely pay, and shall cause Guarantor to timely
pay, to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law, or at the option of
Administrative Agent reimburse within ten (10) days after demand for the payment of, any Other
Taxes.
(c) Tax Indemnifications.
(i) Borrower shall, and does hereby indemnify each Recipient, and shall make payment
in respect thereof within ten (10 ) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of
any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable
to amounts payable under this Section 2.1) payable or paid by such Recipient or
required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient, and any penalties,
interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or
not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant
Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability
delivered to Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to Administrative Agent), or by
Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive
absent manifest error. Borrower shall, and does hereby indemnify Administrative Agent,
and shall make payment in respect thereof within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for
any amount which a Lender for any reason fails to pay indefeasibly to Administrative
Agent as required pursuant to Section 2.1(c)(ii).
(ii) Each Lender shall, and does hereby, severally indemnify, and shall make payment
in respect thereof within ten (10) days after demand therefor, (A) Administrative Agent
against any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that
Borrower has not already indemnified Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and
without limiting the obligation of Borrower to do so), (B) Administrative Agent and
Borrower, as applicable, against any Taxes attributable to such Lenders failure to
comply with the provisions of Section 9.5(d) relating to the maintenance of a
Participant Register and (C) Administrative Agent and Borrower and Guarantor, as
applicable, against any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that
are payable or paid by Administrative Agent or Borrower or Guarantor in connection with
any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto,
whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant
Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability
delivered to any Lender by Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest
error. Each Lender hereby authorizes Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and
all amounts at any time owing to such Lender as the case may be, under this Agreement or
any other Loan Document against any amount due to Administrative Agent under this
Section 2.1(c)(ii).
(d) Evidence of Payments. Upon written request by Borrower or Administrative Agent,
as the case may be, after any payment of Taxes by Borrower or Guarantor or by Administrative Agent
to a Governmental Authority as provided in this Section 2.1, Borrower shall deliver, or
shall cause Guarantor to deliver, to Administrative Agent or Administrative Agent shall deliver to
Borrower, as the case may be, the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such
Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of any return required by Laws to report
such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Borrower or
Administrative Agent, as the case may be.
(e) Status of Lenders; Tax Documentation.
(i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax
with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to Borrower and
Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by Borrower or
Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably
requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made
without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if
reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other
documentation prescribed by applicable Law or reasonably requested by Borrower or
Administrative Agent as will enable Borrower, Guarantor or Administrative Agent to
determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information
reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two
sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than
such documentation set forth in clauses (A), (B) and (D) of
Section 2.1(e)(ii)) shall not be required if in the Lenders reasonable judgment
such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material
unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial
position of such Lender.
(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that Borrower or
Guarantor is a U.S. Person,
(A) any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to Borrower and
Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender
under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable written
request of Borrower or Administrative Agent), executed originals of IRS Form W-9
certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;
(B) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so,
deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be
requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender
becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the
reasonable written request of Borrower or Administrative Agent), whichever of the
following is applicable:
(I) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income
tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to
payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed originals of IRS Form
W-8BEN establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal
withholding Tax pursuant to the interest article of such tax treaty and
(y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document,
IRS Form W-8BEN establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S.
federal withholding Tax pursuant to the business profits or
other income article of such tax treaty;
(II) executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI;
(III) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the
exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a
certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit K-1 to the effect
that such Foreign Lender is not a bank within the meaning of Section
881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, and 10 percent shareholder of Borrower within
the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a controlled foreign
corporation described in Section 881(c)(C) of the Code (a U.S. Tax
Compliance Certificate) and (y) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN;
or
(IV) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner,
executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS
Form W-8BEN, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of
Exhibit K-2 or Exhibit K-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other
certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable;
provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more
direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the
portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax
Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit K-4 on
behalf of each such direct and indirect partner.
(C) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so,
deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be
requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender
becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the
reasonable written request of Borrower or Administrative Agent), executed originals
of any other form prescribed by applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption
from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with
such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable Law to permit
Borrower or Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required
to be made; and
(D) if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to
U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply
with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in
Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to
Borrower and Administrative Agent at the time or times reasonably requested by
Borrower or Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable Law
(including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such
additional documentation reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent as
may be necessary for Borrower, Guarantor and Administrative Agent to comply with
their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with
such Lenders obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and
withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), FATCA
shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the Closing Date.
(iii) Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered
pursuant to this Section 2.1 expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any
respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify Borrower and
Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.
(f) Treatment of Certain Refunds. Unless required by applicable Laws, at no time
shall Administrative Agent have any obligation to file for or otherwise pursue on behalf of a
Lender, any refund of Taxes withheld or deducted from funds paid for the account of such Lender.
If any Recipient determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a
refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by Borrower or Guarantor with respect to
which Borrower or Guarantor has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.1, it
shall promptly pay to Borrower or Guarantor an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent
of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by Borrower or Guarantor under this
Section 2.1 with respect to the Taxes giving right to such refund), net of all
out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) incurred by such Recipient, and without interest (other
than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund),
provided that Borrower or Guarantor, upon the written request of the Recipient, agrees to
repay the amount paid over to Borrower or Guarantor (plus any penalties, interest or other charges
imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Recipient in the event the Recipient is
required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this Section 2.1(f), in no event will the applicable Recipient be required to
pay any amount to Borrower or Guarantor pursuant to this Section 2.1(f) the payment of
which would place the Recipient in a less favorable net after-Tax position than such Recipient
would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not
been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts
with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This Section 2.1(f) shall not be construed
to require any Recipient to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to
its taxes that it deems confidential) to Borrower or Guarantor or any other Person.
(g) Survival. Each partys obligations under this Section 2.1 shall survive
the resignation or replacement of Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the
replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments, the termination of this Agreement and
the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations.
2.2 Illegality. If any Lender determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any
Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its Lending Office to
perform any of its obligations hereunder or to make, maintain or fund or charge interest with
respect to any Loan advance or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the LIBOR Daily
Floating Rate, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of
such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, U.S. Dollars in the London interbank
eurodollar market, then on notice thereof by such Lender to Borrower through Administrative Agent,
any obligation of such Lender to make, maintain, fund or charge interest with respect to any such
Loan advance at the LIBOR Rate shall be suspended, in each case until such Lender notifies
Administrative Agent and Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no
longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, Borrower shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a
copy to Administrative Agent), immediately prepay or, if applicable, convert all LIBOR Rate
Principal to Base Rate Principal. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, Borrower shall also pay
accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted.
2.3 Inability to Determine Rates. If (a) Administrative Agent determines that (i) U.S.
Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank eurodollar market in the
amount of any proposed or existing advance of the Loan at the time of determination for terms equal
to one (1) month, or (ii) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the LIBOR
Daily Floating Rate for proposed or existing advances of the Loan (in each case with respect to
clause (a)(i) above, Impacted Advances), or (b) Administrative Agent or Required
Lenders determine that for any reason the LIBOR Rate does not adequately and fairly reflect the
cost to such Lenders of funding the Loan, Administrative Agent will promptly so notify Borrower and
each Lender. Thereafter, the obligation of Lenders to make or maintain advances of the Loan at the
LIBOR Rate shall be suspended, in each case until Administrative Agent (upon the instruction of
Required Lenders) revokes such notice. During the period of such suspension, all proposed advances
and all amounts from day to day outstanding which are not past due, shall bear interest at the Base
Rate.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Administrative Agent has made the determination described in
subsection (a)(i) of this Section 2.3, Administrative Agent, in consultation with
Borrower and the affected Lenders, may establish an alternative interest rate for the Impacted
Advances, in which case, such alternative rate of interest shall apply with respect to the Impacted
Advances until (1) Administrative Agent revokes the notice delivered with respect to the Impacted
Advances under subsection (a) of the first sentence of this Section 2.3, (2)
Administrative Agent or Required Lenders notify Administrative Agent and Borrower that such
alternative interest rate does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of
funding the Impacted Advances, or (3) any Lender determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or
that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for such Lender or its applicable
Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Loan advances whose interest is determined by reference to
such alternative rate of interest or to determine or charge interest rates based upon such rate or
any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to do
any of the foregoing and provides Administrative Agent and Borrower written notice thereof.
2.4 Increased Costs.
(a) If any Change in Law shall:
(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan,
insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the
account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve
requirement reflected in the LIBOR Rate;
(ii) subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes
described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes
and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit,
commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or
capital attributable thereto; or
(iii) impose on any Lender or the London interbank eurodollar market any other
condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or any Note;
and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making,
converting to, continuing or maintaining any advance or other portion of the Loan the interest on
which is determined by reference to the LIBOR Daily Floating Rate (or of maintaining its obligation
to make any such advance), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender
hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then Borrower will pay to such
Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such additional costs
incurred or reduction suffered.
(b) Capital Requirements. If any Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting
such Lender or any Lending Office of such Lender or such Lenders holding company, if any,
regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of
return on such Lenders capital or on the capital of such Lenders holding company, if any, as a
consequence of this Agreement, any Note, the Commitments of such Lender or the advances made by
such Lender, to a level below that which such Lender or such Lenders holding company could have
achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lenders policies and the
policies of such Lenders holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time
Borrower will pay to such Lender, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender
or such Lenders holding company for any such reduction suffered.
(c) Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender setting forth the
amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company, as the case may be,
as specified in Section 2.4(a) or Section 2.4(b) and delivered to Borrower shall be
conclusive absent manifest error. Borrower shall pay such Lender, as the case may be, the amount
shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof.
(d) Delay in Requests; Survival. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand
compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.4 shall not constitute
a waiver of such Lenders right to demand such compensation, provided that Borrower shall
not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section
2.4 for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine (9) months prior to
the date that such Lender notifies Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased
costs or reductions and of such Lenders intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if
the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine
(9) month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect
thereof). Subject to the foregoing, all of Borrowers obligations under this Section 2.4
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, enforcement or
termination of this Agreement or of any other Loan Documents.
2.5 Intentionally Omitted.
2.6 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.
(a) Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation
under Section 2.4, or requires Borrower to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts
to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to
Section 2.1, or if any Lender gives a notice pursuant to Section 2.2, then at the
written request of Borrower such Lender shall, as applicable, use reasonable efforts to designate a
different Lending Office for funding or booking its advances hereunder or to assign its rights and
obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of
such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant
to Section 2.1 or 2.4 in the future, or eliminate the need for the notice pursuant
to Section 2.2, and (ii) in each case, would not subject such Lender, as the case may be,
to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender, as
the case may be. Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any
Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment within ten (10) days of written demand
of such Lender.
(b) Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section
2.4, or if Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any
Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.1
and, in each case, such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different lending office in
accordance with Section 2.6(a), Borrower may replace such Lender in accordance with
Section 9.12.
2.7 Survival. All of Borrowers obligations under this Article 2 shall survive the
resignation or replacement of Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement
of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments, the termination of this Agreement and the
repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations.

condemnation or any casualty for which insurance was not obtained or obtainable) shall result in
damage to or loss or destruction of the Property, Borrower shall give prompt notice thereof to
Administrative Agent and Borrower shall promptly, subject to Section 4.8 and 4.9,
at Borrowers sole cost and expense and regardless of whether insurance or condemnation proceeds

interest (except for that created by the Mortgage or any other Loan Document or other Permitted
Encumbrances), or (ii) make any alteration to the Property; provided, however, that
the consent of Required Lenders shall not be required in the case of (i) any alteration, the cost

Lease entered into in accordance with Exhibit E (including the Skechers Lease) and any
other provision of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and (iii) any alteration required
for the maintenance and upkeep of the Property in accordance with the Loan Documents that could not
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

delivered to Administrative Agent all plans, specifications and drawings and architects and
other construction contracts, if any, for such alteration; and

manner, in compliance with all applicable Laws in all material respects, and in compliance with all
applicable requirements of the Leases and Permitted Encumbrances, After completion of each
alteration, Borrower shall provide Administrative Agent with a copy of the as-built plans and

management and operating practices for comparable competitive properties and will pay all fees or
charges of any kind in connection therewith. Borrower will use commercially reasonable efforts to
keep the Property occupied so as not to impair the insurance carried thereon. Borrower will not
use or occupy or conduct any activity on, or knowingly allow the use or occupancy of or the conduct
of any activity on, the Property in any manner 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. Borrower will not do or knowingly suffer to be done any act whereby the
value of any part of the Property may be lessened. Borrower shall not commit, permit or knowingly
suffer to exist any act or omission, including any use or occupy of, or activity at or on, the

any of the Loan Documents.
(b) Borrower will preserve, protect, renew, extend and retain all requisite rights, powers,
authority, privileges and franchises which are necessary or required to carry on its business and
to own and operate the Property in accordance with the Leases, the Permitted Encumbrances and
otherwise in accordance with this Agreement, and all other material rights and privileges granted
for or applicable to the Property. Borrower will not initiate or permit any zoning
reclassification of the Property or seek any variance under existing zoning ordinances applicable
to the Property. Borrower shall not 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
Law. If under applicable zoning provisions the use of all or any portion of the Property is or
shall become a nonconforming use, Borrower will not cause or permit the nonconforming use to be
discontinued or the nonconforming Improvement to be abandoned without the prior written consent of
Administrative Agent.
(c) Borrower will not hereafter 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 Administrative Agent which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Without
the prior written consent of Administrative Agent, 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.
(d) Borrower will cause all debts and liabilities of any character (including without 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.
4.4 Intentionally Omitted.
4.5 Inspection. Administrative Agent and its agents may enter upon the Property to
inspect the Property during normal business hours, upon reasonable notice and subject to the rights
of tenants and reasonable and customary safety rules and regulations, unless Administrative Agent
reasonably deems such inspection is an emergency, in which event Borrower shall provide
Administrative Agent and its agents with immediate access to the Property, subject to the rights of
tenants. Borrower will furnish to Administrative Agent and its agents, for inspection and copying,
all books and records, and other documents and information relating to the Borrower or the Property
that Administrative Agent may reasonably request in writing from time to time.
4.6 Real Property Taxes.

prior to the date the same shall become delinquent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as no
Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Borrower shall have the right to challenge or appeal
any Real Property Taxes so long as (a) Borrower shall prosecute such challenge or appeal in good
faith, at its own expense and by appropriate legal proceedings, (b) Administrative Agent shall have
received assurance reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent that (i) such contest will not
result in the imposition of any civil or criminal liability or penalty, (ii) either Borrower shall
have paid such Real Property Taxes in full or such contest shall suspend the payment and collection
thereof by and from Borrower and the Property, and (iii) the Property would not be in any danger of
being sold, forfeited or lost in any respect, nor would the value or use of the Property be
impaired or curtailed, as a result of such contest or deferral of payment, (c) unless such Real
Property Taxes shall have been paid in full, Borrower shall have furnished such security as may be
required in the proceeding or as may be reasonably requested by Administrative Agent, to insure the

shall not be less than one hundred and ten percent (110%) of the maximum liability of Borrower as
reasonably determined by Administrative Agent, (d) promptly after such challenge or appeal, and in
any event on or prior to the date that payment is required under applicable Law, Borrower shall pay
any such Real Property Taxes, fees, penalties, interest and other sums determined to be payable and

(b) Subject to Borrowers right to contest set forth in Section 4.6(a), Borrower shall
furnish to Administrative Agent upon written request, receipts for the payment of Real Property
Taxes at least five (5) days prior to the date the same shall become delinquent. If Borrower shall
fail to pay any Real Property Taxes in accordance with this Section 4.6 (subject to
Borrowers right to contest set forth in Section 4.6(a)), in addition to all other rights
and remedies of Administrative Agent and Lenders, Administrative Agent shall have the right, but
shall not be obligated, to pay Real Property Taxes, and Borrower shall repay same to Administrative
Agent upon demand, with interest thereon at the Default Rate accruing from the date such advance is
due to be repaid by Borrower to the date of repayment, and such amount shall constitute a portion
of the Obligations secured by the Mortgage.
4.7 Insurance.
(a) Borrower shall obtain and maintain at Borrowers sole expense: (1) 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 Administrative Agent 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
Borrower and Administrative Agent from becoming a coinsurer (such insurance to be in builders
risk completed value (non-reporting) form during and with respect to any construction on the
Property); (2) 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 on the Improvements and any Borrower owned contents in an amount required by Administrative
Agent, 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; provided, that if
the Indebtedness relates to construction of the Improvements, then the flood insurance policy on
contents shall be required upon completion of the Improvements or any unit or component thereof, or
as soon thereafter as a flood insurance policy on contents may be obtained; provided
further that Borrower shall not commence construction of any portion of any structure or
improvement on the Land located within a Special Flood Hazard Area without giving at least ten (10)
days written advance notice to Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders, and obtaining flood
insurance coverage as required herein; (3) 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 Borrower as named insured and Administrative Agent as additional
insured; (4) statutory workers compensation insurance with respect to any work on or about the
Property (including employers liability insurance, if required by Administrative Agent), covering
all employees of Borrower and any contractor; (5) if there is a general contractor, commercial
general liability insurance, including products and completed operations coverage, and in other
respects similar to that described in clause (3) above, for the benefit of the general
contractor as named insured and Borrower and Administrative Agent as additional insureds, in
addition to statutory workers compensation insurance with respect to any work on or about the
Property (including employers liability insurance, if required by Administrative Agent), covering
all employees of the general contractor or any contractor; and (6) such other insurance on the
Property and endorsements as may from time to time be required by Administrative Agent (including
automobile liability insurance, business interruption insurance, boiler and machinery insurance,
earthquake insurance, wind insurance, and/or sinkhole coverage) 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 Administrative
Agent, and shall require not less than ten (10) days prior written notice to Administrative Agent
of any cancellation for nonpayment of premiums, and not less than thirty (30) days prior written
notice to Administrative Agent 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, 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 Borrower or Administrative Agent 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 Agreement 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 Administrative Agents reasonable opinion the
financial responsibility of such insurer is or becomes inadequate, Borrower shall, in each instance
promptly upon its discovery thereof or upon the written request of Administrative Agent therefor,
and at Borrowers expense, promptly obtain and deliver to Administrative Agent a like policy (or,
if and to the extent permitted by Administrative Agent, acceptable evidence of insurance) issued by
another insurer, which insurer and policy meet the requirements of this Agreement or such other
Loan Document, as the case may be. Without limiting the discretion of Administrative Agent with
respect to required endorsements to insurance policies, all such policies for loss of or damage to
the Property shall contain a standard mortgagee Loss Payee clause (without contribution) naming
Administrative Agent as Loss Payee with loss proceeds payable to Administrative Agent
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 Administrative Agent 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. Borrower shall pay all
premiums on policies required hereunder as they become due and payable. If any loss occurs at any
time when Borrower has failed to perform Borrowers 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 Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent shall nevertheless be
entitled to the benefit of all insurance covering the loss and held by or for Borrower, to the same
extent as if it had been made payable to Administrative Agent.
(b) The originals of each initial insurance policy (or a copy of the original policy and such
evidence of insurance acceptable to Administrative Agent such as an Acord certificate of insurance)
shall be delivered to Administrative Agent at the time of execution of this Agreement, with all
premiums fully paid current, and each renewal or substitute policy (or to the extent permitted by
Administrative Agent, a copy thereof and such evidence of insurance acceptable to Administrative
Agent) shall be delivered to Administrative Agent, with all premiums fully paid current, at least
ten (10) days before the termination of the policy it renews or replaces. Borrower shall promptly
deliver to Administrative Agent evidence satisfactory to Administrative Agent of the timely payment
of all premiums on the policies required hereunder.
(c) Intentionally Omitted.
(d) Upon any foreclosure of the Mortgage or transfer of title to the Property in
extinguishment of the whole or any part of the Obligations, all of Borrowers right, title and
interest in and to the insurance policies referred to in this Section 4.7 (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. Following the
occurrence of and during the continuance of any Default, Administrative Agent 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, regardless of whether or not
such insurance policies are required by Administrative Agent, and the expenses incurred by
Administrative Agent, including reasonable attorneys fees, in the adjustment and collection of
insurance proceeds shall be a part of the Indebtedness and shall be due and payable to
Administrative Agent on demand. Administrative Agent 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 Borrower. Following the occurrence of and
during the continuance of any Default, any proceeds of insurance policies received by
Administrative Agent shall, after deduction therefrom of all expenses incurred by Administrative
Agent, including reasonable attorneys fees, at Administrative Agents option be (1) released to
Borrower, or (2) applied (upon compliance with such terms and conditions as may be required by
Administrative Agent) to repair or restoration, either partly or entirely, of the Property so
damaged, or (3) applied to the payment of the Indebtedness and other Obligations in such order and
manner as Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, may elect, whether or not due. In any
event, the unpaid portion of the Indebtedness and other Obligations shall remain in full force and
effect and the payment thereof shall not be excused. Borrower 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.
4.8 Damage or Destruction.
(a) Promptly after Borrower obtains knowledge of the occurrence thereof, Borrower shall notify
Administrative Agent of any fire or other Casualty with respect to any portion of the Property.
Such notice also shall generally describe the nature and extent of such Casualty and set forth
Borrowers best preliminary estimate of the cost of Restoration.
(b) Subject to the proviso in this Section 4.8(b), Administrative Agent shall be entitled to
receive all insurance proceeds payable with respect to the Property on account of a Casualty and
Borrower hereby irrevocably assigns, transfers and sets over to Administrative Agent all rights of
Borrower to any such insurance proceeds, award or payment. Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes
and empowers Administrative Agent, in the name of Borrower or otherwise, to file for and prosecute
in its own name what would otherwise be Borrowers claim for any such insurance proceeds.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as no Default shall have occurred and shall then be
continuing and provided Borrower promptly files all claims and diligently prosecutes same, Borrower
shall have the right to file, adjust, settle and prosecute any claim for such insurance proceeds;
provided, however, that Borrower shall not agree to any adjustment or settlement of
any such claim payable with respect to a Casualty the insurance proceeds with respect to which are
equal to or greater than $5,000,000 (the Casualty Proceeds Disbursement Threshold)
without Administrative Agents prior written consent. All expenses incurred by Administrative
Agent (including the fees of any insurance consultant or adjuster and reasonable attorneys fees)
in connection with a Casualty and seeking and obtaining any insurance proceeds, award or payment
with respect thereto shall be a part of the Indebtedness and shall be due and payable to
Administrative Agent on demand. Net Proceeds held by Administrative Agent, together with any
interest earned thereon, shall constitute additional security for the payment of the Obligations (a
security interest therein being granted hereby), until disbursed in accordance with this
Section 4.8 or Section 4.10. Notwithstanding the foregoing, or anything else
herein, to the contrary, all proceeds of business interruption/rent loss insurance shall be
deposited in Borrowers operating account maintained with Administrative Agent and utilized by
Borrower for the payment of principal and interest due under the Loan for the time period covered
by such insurance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent the amount of the proceeds exceeds
the amount of principal and interest due under the Loan for the time period covered by such
insurance, such excess proceeds can be used by Borrower in any manner that does not violate the
terms of the Loan Documents.
(c) Borrower shall, at its sole cost and expense, promptly commence and diligently and
continuously perform to completion the Restoration in a good and workmanlike manner and in
compliance with all Laws and the requirements of the Permitted Encumbrances, whether or not
Borrower shall have satisfied the requirements of Section 4.8(d) in order to cause the Net
Proceeds to be made available for such Restoration and whether or not such insurance proceeds on
account of the Casualty shall be sufficient for such purpose.
(d) In the case of any Casualty with respect to which the insurance proceeds payable are less
than the Casualty Proceeds Disbursement Threshold, provided no Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, the Net Proceeds shall be held by Borrower and shall be used by Borrower for the
applicable Restoration and to the extent there is excess funds, any other lawful purposes without
any further consent or approval from the Administrative Agent or any Lender. In the case of any
Casualty with respect to which the insurance proceeds payable are equal to or greater than the
Casualty Proceeds Disbursement Threshold, the Net Proceeds shall be held by Administrative Agent,
if Administrative Agent so elects, as a part of the Collateral and shall be applied or dealt with
by Administrative Agent as follows:
(i) The Net Proceeds shall be disbursed if the following conditions are satisfied
(each a Release Condition and collectively, the Release Conditions):
(A) no Default or Potential Default shall have occurred and be continuing;
(B) Borrower shall have delivered to Administrative Agent within sixty (60)
days after the occurrence of the Casualty, a notice of Borrowers desire to
undertake the Restoration;
(C) Borrower shall have demonstrated to the satisfaction of Administrative
Agent that the Restoration can be completed prior to the earlier of (1) the date
that is three (3) months prior to the then-current Maturity Date or (2) the date of
repair or restoration as may be required by applicable Law;
(D) Borrower shall have demonstrated to the satisfaction of Administrative
Agent that sufficient funds are available to Borrower through rent and/or business
interruption insurance maintained pursuant to Section 4.7, cash, and/or a
letter of credit or other similar cash-equivalent security reasonably satisfactory
to Administrative Agent as to form, content and issuer, and which shall be for the
benefit of Administrative Agent, to pay all Obligations and all operating expenses
with respect to the Property during the period reasonably estimated by Borrower as
necessary for the completion of the Restoration;
(E) if required by Administrative Agent, Borrower shall have provided
Administrative Agent, a guaranty of completion satisfactory to Agent in form and
content and from a guarantor approved by Administrative Agent which guaranty, among
other things, guarantees the timely and lien-free completion of the Restoration;
(F) to the extent, in Administrative Agents reasonable judgment, the Net
Proceeds are insufficient to pay the costs of the Restoration, Borrower shall have
provided Administrative Agent with a letter of credit, cash deposit or similar
equivalent security in the amount of such deficiency in form, content and issuer
satisfactory to Administrative Agent;
(G) Intentionally Omitted;
(H) Administrative Agent shall have received certificates of insurance, copies
of insurance policies or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to Administrative
Agent that the insurance coverage required hereunder, including insurance with
respect to such Casualty, is in full force and effect in accordance with the terms
hereof and shall remain in effect during the course of the Restoration (subject to
normal annual renewals);
(I) Administrative Agent shall have received a budget and plans and
specifications for the Restoration approved Administrative Agent; and
(J) Prior to any disbursement by Administrative Agent, the following
information and documentation shall have been obtained by Borrower, at Borrowers
expense, and submitted to Administrative Agent, which information and documentation
shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent:
(I) A request for disbursement signed by Borrower, accompanied by
billing statements, vouchers or invoices, which request for disbursement
shall expressly warrant that the work with respect to which the advance is
requested has been substantially performed in accordance with the approved
plans and specifications for the Restoration;
(II) Proof that all invoices for labor and materials previously
submitted by Borrower and approved and reimbursed by Administrative Agent
have been paid, except for those that are the subject of the current request
for disbursement;
(III) Lien waivers for all payees under previous requests for
disbursements;
(IV) A report from Borrowers architect or, if Administrative Agent
shall elect, Administrative Agents inspector, which shall specify the
percentage of completion of the Restoration, shall provide detailed comments
on specific work performed since the date of the last such report, and, if
required by Administrative Agent, an estimate of the cost to complete the
Restoration after taking into account the work then completed;
(V) At the request of Administrative Agent, a Title Insurance Report;
(VI) Copies of the agreements pursuant to which the restoration or
repair shall be done, all of which shall be in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to Administrative Agent, and which also shall be reasonably
satisfactory to Administrative Agent as to the party performing the
construction obligations thereunder;
(VII) Written consents by parties to any general construction
contracts, architect/design contracts and other material contracts
consenting to the assignment of such contracts pursuant to the Mortgage
(which may be included in any such contract) and/or will-serve agreements in
favor of Administrative Agent in form reasonably satisfactory to it from
such contractors, architects or designers; and
(VIII) Such other information and documentation as Administrative Agent
may reasonably request regarding the Improvements and the Restoration and
the cost thereof.
(ii) Notwithstanding Section 4.8(d)(i), in the case of any Casualty with
respect to which the insurance proceeds payable are equal to or greater than the Casualty
Proceeds Disbursement Threshold, if Administrative Agent does not elect to hold the Net
Proceeds, and with respect to any proceeds held by Borrower pursuant to Section
4.8(d), Borrower shall not disburse any Net Proceeds other than in accordance with
the conditions of this Section 4.8(d) and Sections 4.8(e) and
4.8(f).
(e) If a Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Release Condition set forth in
Section 4.8(d)(i)(B) hereof is not satisfied within the period set forth therein, or one or
more of the other Release Conditions set forth in Section 4.8(d)(i)(C) through (I)
above are not satisfied within one hundred and twenty (120) days of the occurrence of any Casualty,
then all Net Proceeds shall be applied in accordance with Section 4.10. If a Potential
Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Administrative shall not make the requested
disbursement until such time, if any, as such Potential Default does not exist (and the other
Release Conditions are satisfied).
(f) All expenses incurred by Administrative Agent in connection with making the Net Proceeds
available for the Restoration (including reasonable attorneys fees and reasonable fees of
Administrative Agents construction consultants and inspectors) shall be a part of the Indebtedness
and shall be due and payable to Administrative Agent upon demand. Any Net Proceeds remaining after
the Restoration and the payment in full of all costs incurred in connection with the Restoration
will be immediately returned to Borrower or, if a Default then exists, such Net Proceeds shall, in
the Administrative Agents sole discretion, either will be distributed by Administrative Agent to
Borrower or applied as a mandatory prepayment of the Loan.
4.9 Taking of the Mortgaged Property.
(a) Promptly after Borrower obtains knowledge of the occurrence thereof, Borrower shall notify
Administrative Agent of any Condemnation or the commencement of any proceedings or negotiations
which might result in a Condemnation. Such notice shall generally describe the nature and extent
of such Condemnation or the nature of such proceedings or negotiations and the nature and extent of
the Condemnation which might result therefrom. Administrative Agent shall be entitled hereunder to
all awards or compensation payable on account of a Condemnation to be applied in the manner set
forth herein. Borrower hereby irrevocably assigns, transfers and sets over to Administrative Agent
all rights of Borrower to any such awards or compensation and irrevocably authorizes and empowers
Administrative Agent, in the name of Borrower or otherwise, to collect and receipt for any such
award or compensation and delegates to Administrative Agent the right to file and prosecute any and
all claims for any such awards or compensation and to participate in any and all hearings, trials
and appeals in connection with a Condemnation on behalf of Borrower. Administrative Agent may
participate in such proceedings or negotiations and Borrower will deliver or cause to be delivered
to Administrative Agent all instruments requested by Administrative Agent to permit such
participation; provided, however, that Administrative Agent shall be under no
obligation to question the amount of the award or compensation. Although it is hereby expressly
agreed that the same shall not be necessary, and in any event, Borrower shall, upon demand of
Administrative Agent, make, execute and deliver any and all assignments and other instruments
sufficient for the purpose of assigning any such award or compensation to Administrative Agent,
free and clear of any encumbrances of any kind or nature whatsoever. Administrative Agent may be
represented in any Condemnation proceeding by counsel satisfactory to it at the expense of
Borrower. All expenses incurred by Administrative Agent in connection with making any Condemnation
and seeking and obtaining any award or payment on account thereof (including reasonable attorneys
fees and reasonable fees of any appraiser or other consultant) shall be a part of the Indebtedness
and shall be due and payable to Administrative Agent upon demand.
(b) Borrower shall, at its sole cost and expense, promptly commence and diligently and
continuously perform to completion the Restoration in a good and workmanlike manner and in
compliance with all Laws and the requirements of the Permitted Encumbrances, whether or not
Borrower shall have satisfied the Release Conditions in order to cause the Net Restoration Award to
be made available for such Restoration and whether or not such awards or compensation, if any, on
account of the Taking shall be sufficient for such purpose.
(c) All Net Restoration Awards shall be held by Administrative Agent at its election. All Net
Restoration Awards shall be applied as follows:
(i) If the Condemnation is not a Material Condemnation, the amount of Net
Restoration Award is less than $5,000,000.00 (the Net Restoration Award
Threshold), and there is no Default then in existence, the Net Restoration Award
shall be held by the Borrower and applied by the Borrower to pay the cost of the
Restoration.
(ii) If the Condemnation is not a Material Condemnation, and the amount of the Net
Restoration Award is equal to or greater than the Net Restoration Award Threshold,
provided that the Release Conditions are satisfied, the Net Restoration Award shall be
made available to the Borrower to pay the cost of Restoration, such application to be
effected in the same manner and subject to the conditions provided in
Section 4.8(d) with respect to Net Proceeds. Any Net Restoration Awards
remaining after the Restoration and the payment in full of all costs incurred in
connection with the Restoration, in Administrative Agents sole discretion, either will
be distributed by Administrative Agent to Borrower or applied as a mandatory prepayment
of the Loan.
(iii) If the Condemnation is a Material Condemnation, or, the satisfaction of the
Release Conditions is required in order for Borrower to receive a Net Restoration Award
and one or more of the Release Conditions are not satisfied, all Net Restoration Awards
shall be applied in accordance with Section 4.10.
(iv) In the case of a Condemnation for temporary use, any Net Restoration Awards
shall be deposited and applied in the same manner and subject to the conditions provided
with respect to business interruption/rent loss insurance proceeds.
4.10 Application of Proceeds of Casualty or Taking to Loan;. Upon a Casualty, if the
disposition of the Net Proceeds is governed by Section 4.8(e) or upon a Condemnation, if
the disposition of the Net Restoration Awards is governed by Section 4.9(c)(iii), at the
option of Administrative Agent, the Net Proceeds or Net Restoration Awards, as applicable, shall be
applied to prepay the Loan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Administrative Agent shall have the
option to (a) make available the Net Proceeds or the Net Restoration Awards, as the case may be, to
Borrower for Restoration in the manner provided in Section 4.8(d) or (b) apply the Net
Proceeds and/or the Net Restoration Awards to the Obligations, in such order and manner as
Administrative Agent determines, as the case may be. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that in the
event a Default has occurred and is continuing, Administrative Agent shall have the sole right to
receive any Net Proceeds or Net Restoration Awards and apply such funds for any purpose in
Administrative Agents sole determination, including without limitation Restoration or to prepay
the Loan. Such rights are in addition to any other rights Administrative Agent has hereunder
following the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default.
4.11 Compliance with Law. Borrower shall not, by act or omission, permit any building or
other improvement not subject to the lien of the Mortgage to rely on the Property or any interest
therein to fulfill any requirement of any Law. Borrower shall preserve in force all requisite
zoning, utility, building, health, environmental and operating permits from all Governmental
Authorities having jurisdiction over the Property, and preserve and maintain all other rights,
privileges and franchises necessary to own and operate the Property in accordance with applicable

4.11 reasonably satisfactory in all respects to Administrative Agent. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Borrower shall have the right to challenge or appeal any such Law so long as
(a) Borrower shall prosecute such challenge or appeal in good faith, at its own expense and by
appropriate legal proceedings, (b) Administrative Agent shall have received assurance reasonably
satisfactory to Administrative Agent that (i) such contest will not result in the imposition of any
civil or criminal liability or penalty and (ii) the Property would not be in any danger of being
sold, forfeited or lost in any respect, nor would the value or use of the Property be impaired or
curtailed, as a result of such contest or deferral of compliance, (c) Borrower shall have furnished
such security as may be required in the proceeding or as may be reasonably requested by
Administrative Agent, to insure the cost of compliance, including all interest and penalties in
connection therewith, which security shall not be less than one hundred and ten percent (110%) of
the maximum liability of Borrower as reasonably determined by Administrative Agent, (d) the subject
matter of the applicable Law will be addressed to the reasonable satisfaction of Administrative
Agent promptly after such contest but in any event prior to the time the security granted to
Administrative Agent in the Property shall be subjected to any Lien or otherwise jeopardized or
Borrower or the Property otherwise becomes subject to any enforcement or penalties, in the sole
opinion of Administrative Agent, and (e) such challenge or appeal is made and performed in
accordance with applicable Laws.

operation, occupancy, maintenance or other activity thereof or thereon is not in compliance with
any Law, Borrower will promptly furnish a copy of such notice or claim to Administrative Agent.

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 Lenders 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 4.19 as Administrative Agent may from time to time request.

identification number, or (b) if Borrower does not now have an organization identification number

regardless of the medium of recording including software, writings, plans, specifications and
schematics concerning the Property, shall be the same.

section of this Agreement) within ten (10) days of the date that any such liens, charges, claims,

Borrower will punctually pay, perform, observe and keep all covenants, obligations and conditions
in or pursuant to any Permitted Encumbrances and will not modify or permit modification of any
Permitted Encumbrance without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent. Inclusion of any
matter as a Permitted Encumbrance does not constitute approval or waiver by Administrative Agent of
any existing or future violation or other breach thereof by Borrower, by the Property or otherwise.
If any right or interest of Administrative Agent or Lenders in the Property shall be endangered or
questioned or shall be attacked directly or indirectly, Administrative Agent (whether or not it or

empowered to take such steps as in its discretion may be proper for the defense of any such legal
proceedings or the protection of such right or interest of Administrative Agent and Lenders,
including the employment of independent counsel, the prosecution or defense of litigation, and the
compromise or discharge of adverse claims. All expenses so incurred by Administrative Agent shall

Liens granted to Administrative Agent or to enforce any of the rights and remedies of

or any of such taxes otherwise affects the Mortgage, any other Loan Document, Administrative Agent
or any Lender, including their interests in any of the Collateral, (b) any Law deducts from the
value of the Property for the purpose of taxation any lien, charge or security interest thereon, or
requires Administrative Agent or Lender to pay any such lien, charge or security interest or the
value thereof, or any other assessment against Borrower or the Property, or (c) there is any change
in law regarding 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 beneficiary,
mortgagee or secured party in the property covered thereby, or the manner of collection of such
taxes, so as to affect the Mortgage or any other Loan Document, then, and in any such event,
Borrower, upon demand by Administrative Agent, shall pay such taxes, liens, charges and security
interests or reimburse Administrative Agent or Lenders, as applicable, therefor; provided,
however, that if in the opinion of counsel for Administrative Agent (a) it might be
unlawful to require Borrower to make such payment or (b) the making of such payment might result in
the imposition of interest beyond the maximum amount permitted by law, then and in such event,
Administrative Agent may elect, by notice in writing given to Borrower, to declare all of the
Indebtedness to be and become due and payable one hundred twenty (120) days from the giving of such
notice.

ARTICLE 8 ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT |
|
8.1 |
|
|
Appointment and Authorization of Administrative Agent. |
|
|
|
|
|
(a) Each Lender hereby irrevocably (subject to Section 8.9) 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. 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) 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, and its duties and responsibilities shall be administrative in nature.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent and its Related Parties:
(i) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of
whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, and no implied covenants, functions,
responsibilities, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any
other Loan Document or otherwise exist against Administrative Agent or its Related
Parties;
(ii) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any
discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated
hereby or by the other Loan Documents that Administrative Agent is required to exercise
as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the
Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents),
provided that Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that,
in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose Administrative Agent to
liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable Law, including for the
avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any
Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of
property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law; and
(iii) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan
Documents, have any duty or responsibility to disclose, and shall not be liable for the
failure to disclose, any information relating to Borrower, Guarantor or any of their
Related Parties that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as
Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties in any capacity.
(c) 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 the
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 (i) the determination
if and to what extent matters or items subject to Administrative Agents 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 7 or pursuant to
any other Loan Document and any action so taken or not taken shall be deemed consented to by
Lenders.
(d) In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy,
reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to
Borrower, Guarantor or any other Person liable for any part of the Indebtedness, 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
or any other Person) shall be exclusively entitled and empowered on behalf of itself and the
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 9.11 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 9.11.
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
the Required Lenders or to authorize Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claims of
Lenders except as approved by the Required Lenders in any such proceeding.
8.2 Delegation of Duties; Advice.
(a) Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan
Document by or through one or more sub-agents appointed by Administrative Agent. Administrative
Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and
powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this
Article 8 shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of Administrative
Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the
syndication of the Loan as well as activities as Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall
not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the extent that a
court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and non appealable judgment that
Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such
sub-agents.
(b) Administrative Agent shall be entitled to advice of counsel and other consultant experts
concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any
action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel or other
consultant experts.
8.3 Liability of Administrative Agent. Neither Administrative Agent nor any Related Party
of Administrative Agent shall (a) be liable to any Lender 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 or thereby (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required
Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary), or as
Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary or (ii) in the absence of its
own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by
final and nonappealable judgment, or (b) be responsible in any manner to any Lender for any
recital, statement, representation or warranty made by Borrower, Guarantor, any subsidiary or
Affiliate of Borrower or Guarantor, or any other Person, 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. Neither
Administrative Agent nor any Related Party of Administrative Agent shall be under any obligation to
any Lender or participant or any other Person to inspect the properties, books or records of
Borrower, Guarantor, any of their Related Parties or any other Person, or to ascertain or inquire
into (u) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or
any other Loan Document, (v) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered
hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (w) the performance or observance
of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the
occurrence of any Default, (x) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this
Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or the creation,
perfection or priority of any Lien purported to be created by the Loan Documents, (y) the value or
the sufficiency of any Collateral, or (z) the satisfaction of any condition set forth herein or
therein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the
Administrative Agent.
8.4 Reliance by Administrative Agent; Authorized Signers. Administrative Agent is
authorized to rely upon the continuing authority of the Authorized Signers to bind Borrower with
respect to all matters pertaining to the Loan and the Loan Documents, including the selection of
interest rates. Such authorization may be changed only upon written notice addressed to
Administrative Agent accompanied by evidence, reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent, of
the authority of the Person giving such notice. Such notice shall be effective not sooner than
five (5) Business Days following receipt thereof by Administrative Agent. Without limitation of
the foregoing, Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected, and
shall be indemnified by Lenders pursuant to Section 8.7, in relying, upon any writing ,
resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex, telephone
message, email or other electronic (including any Internet or intranet website posting or other
distribution) communication, 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. In determining
compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of the Loan that by its terms must be
fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is
satisfactory to such Lender unless Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary
from such Lender prior to the making of the Loan. For purposes of determining compliance with the
conditions specified in Exhibit C, each Lender that has signed this Agreement shall be
deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with, each document or other
matter required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to a
Lender unless Administrative Agent shall have received notice from such Lender prior to the
proposed Closing Date specifying its objections. 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, and shall be indemnified by Lenders pursuant to Section 8.7, 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. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein, in no event shall Administrative Agent be required to take any
action that it determines may expose Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any
Loan Document or applicable Law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in
violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture,
modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief
Law, and Administrative Agent shall be indemnified by Lenders pursuant to Section 8.7 with
respect to such determination.
8.5 Notice of Default. Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or
notice of the occurrence of any Default or Potential Default unless Administrative Agent shall have
received written notice from a Lender or Borrower referring to this Agreement and describing such
Default or Potential Default, and Administrative Agent determines that such Default or such
Potential Default (if it were to become a Default) 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 any such Default as may be requested by the Required Lenders
in accordance with Article 7; 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.
8.6 Credit Decision; Disclosure of Information by Administrative Agent.
(a) Each Lender acknowledges that neither Administrative Agent nor any Related Party of
Administrative Agent 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 Administrative Agent or any Related Party of Administrative Agent to any Lenders as
to any matter, including whether Administrative Agent or any Related Party of Administrative Agent
have disclosed material information in their possession. Each Lender represents to Administrative
Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon Administrative Agent or any Related
Party of Administrative Agent 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
Administrative Agent or any Related Party of Administrative Agent 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 promptly after 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
each Lender and/or make available for such Lenders inspection during reasonable business hours and
at such Lenders expense, promptly after such Lenders written request therefor: (i) copies of the
Loan Documents; (ii) such information as is then in Administrative Agents 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, Guarantor or other Person liable
for payment or performance by Borrower of any obligations under the Loan Documents, then in
Administrative Agents possession with respect to the Loan; and (iv) other current factual
information then in Administrative Agents possession with respect to the Loan and bearing on the
continuing creditworthiness of Borrower or 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 Agents 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 Administrative Agent or
any Related Party of Administrative Agent.
8.7 Indemnification of Administrative Agent. Whether or not the transactions contemplated
hereby are consummated, Lenders hereby indemnify Administrative Agent and each Related Party of
Administrative Agent (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 Administrative Agent and each
Related Party of Administrative Agent from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities incurred
by it, including before, during and after any foreclosure of the Mortgage, other exercise of rights
and remedies or sale of the Property; provided, however, that no Lender shall be
liable for the payment to Administrative Agent or any Related Party of Administrative Agent 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 Persons own gross
negligence or willful misconduct; provided, further, 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. All payments on account of the
foregoing shall be due and payable ten (10) days after demand by Administrative Agent therefor.
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 within ten (10) days
after demand for its ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including attorneys
fees) incurred by Administrative Agent as described in Section 9.11. The undertaking in
this Section shall survive the resignation or replacement of Administrative Agent, any assignment
of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments, the termination
of this Agreement and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations.
8.8 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 securities of, act as the financial advisor or in
any other advisory capacity for 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
subsidiaries and other Affiliates as though Administrative Agent was not Administrative Agent
hereunder, without notice to or consent of Lenders and without any duty to account therefor to
Lenders. Lenders acknowledge that Borrower and Bank of America or its Affiliate have entered or
may enter into Swap Transactions. Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, Bank of
America 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 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 in its individual capacity.
8.9 Successor Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative
Agent upon thirty (30) days notice to Lenders and Borrower. Additionally, if the Person serving
as Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) of the definition
thereof, the Required Lenders may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, by notice in writing
to Borrower and such Person, remove such Person as Administrative Agent. If Administrative Agent
resigns or is so removed by the Required Lenders 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). Upon the
acceptance by the successor administrative agent of its appointment as successor administrative
agent hereunder, the retiring Administrative Agents resignation or removal, as applicable, shall
be effective, 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 Agents appointment, powers and
duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated. If no successor administrative agent has
accepted appointment as Administrative Agent by the date which is thirty (30) days following a
retiring Administrative Agents notice of resignation, or on or before the removal day specified by
Required Lenders in their removal notice to Administrative Agent and Borrower, whichever applies,
then the retiring Administrative Agent may appoint, after consulting with Lenders and Borrower, a
successor administrative agent from among Lenders; provided, however, that the
retiring Administrative Agents resignation or removal, as applicable, shall nevertheless become
effective upon such thirtieth (30th) day, or upon the removal day set forth in Required
Lenders removal notice, whichever applies, and on such day 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. After the effective date any retiring Administrative
Agents resignation or removal hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this
Article VIII 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.
8.10 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 Collateral (i) upon the termination of the Commitments, the termination of
all obligations of each Swap Counterparty to advance any funds under any Swap Contract, and payment
and satisfaction in full of all Indebtedness; (ii) constituting a release, transfer or sale of a
lien or 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 (iii) after foreclosure or
other acquisition of title if approved by the Required Lenders.
(b) If all or any portion of the Collateral is acquired by foreclosure or by deed (or
assignment) 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 (or assignment) 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, the OREO Property Manager) experienced in the management,
leasing, sale and/or disposition of similar properties.
(c) After consulting with the OREO Property Manager, Administrative Agent shall prepare a
written plan for operation, management, improvement, maintenance, repair, sale and disposition of
the 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 OREO 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
Section 8.10(a), have the right but not the obligation to take any action in connection
with the Collateral (including those with respect to all Real Property Taxes, Insurance Premiums,
operation, management, improvement, maintenance, repair, sale and disposition), or any portion
thereof.
(d) Upon request by Administrative Agent or Borrower at any time, Lenders will confirm in
writing Administrative Agents authority to sell, transfer or release any such liens of particular
types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 8.10; 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 Agents
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.
(e) If only two (2) Lenders exist at the time Administrative Agent receives a purchase offer
for Collateral, the consent of the Required Lenders is required pursuant to Section
8.10(a), and one of the Lenders does not consent within ten (10) Business Days after
notification from Administrative Agent, the consenting Lender may, in writing to the other Lender,
offer (Purchase Offer) to purchase all of the non-consenting Lenders right, title and
interest in such Collateral for a purchase price equal to the non-consenting Lenders 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) (Lender Net Sale 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 Lenders right, title and interest in such Collateral for a purchase price payable
by the non-consenting Lender in an amount equal to the consenting Lenders Pro Rata Share of the
Lender Net Sale Proceeds. Any amount payable hereunder by a Lender shall be due on the earlier to
occur of the closing of the sale of such Collateral or ninety (90) days after receipt by the
non-consenting Lender of the Purchase Offer, regardless of whether such Collateral is sold.
8.11 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 Agents separate account) shall, as applicable, be apportioned pro rata among
Lenders. 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 Collateral received by
Administrative Agent, shall be applied first, to pay any fees, indemnities, costs, expenses
(including those in Section 8.7) and reimbursements then due to Administrative Agent from
Borrower (including any of the foregoing constituting Administrative Agent Advances, together with
interest thereon); second, to pay any fees, costs, expenses and reimbursements then due to
Lenders from Borrower (including any of the foregoing constituting Administrative Agent Advances,
together with interest thereon, reimbursed by Lenders); third, to pay (on a pari passu
basis) pro rata interest and late charges due in respect of the Indebtedness and regularly
occurring payments under any Swap Contract; fourth, to pay (on a pari passu basis) or
prepay pro rata principal of the Indebtedness and Settlement Amounts or Close-Out Amounts, and
similar payments, as applicable, payable by 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.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, obligations arising under Swap
Contracts shall be excluded from the application described above in this Section 8.11 if
Administrative Agent has not received a Secured Party Designation Notice, together with such
supporting documentation as Administrative Agent may request, from the applicable Hedge Bank. Each
Hedge Bank not a party to this Agreement that has given the notice contemplated by the preceding
sentence shall, by such notice, be deemed to have acknowledged and accepted the appointment of
Administrative Agent pursuant to the terms of this Article VIII for itself and its
Affiliates as if a Lender party hereto.
8.12 Administrative Agent Advances.
(a) Administrative Agent is authorized, from time to time, in Administrative Agents sole
discretion to make, authorize or determine Additional Advances and other advances, or otherwise
expend funds, on behalf of Lenders (Administrative Agent Advances), (i) to pay any costs,
fees and expenses as described in Section 9.11, (ii) when the applicable conditions
precedent set forth in Exhibit C have been satisfied to the extent required by
Administrative Agent, and (iii) when Administrative Agent deems necessary or desirable to preserve
or protect the Collateral or any portion thereof (including those with respect to Real Property
Taxes, Insurance Premiums, operation, management, improvements, maintenance, repair, sale and
disposition) (A) subject to Section 8.5, after the occurrence of a Default, and (B) subject
to Section 8.10, after acquisition of all or a portion of the 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 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 Lenders Pro Rata
Share of the outstanding principal amount of the 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 Agents 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
Agents Time), or (ii) on or before 12:00 p.m. (Administrative Agents Time) on the Business Day
immediately following the day Administrative Agent provides Lenders with notice of the making of
such Administrative Agent Advance if Administrative Agent provides notice after 12:00 p.m.
(Administrative Agents Time).
8.13 Defaulting Lender.
8.13.1 Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement,
if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as that Lender is no longer a
Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable Law:
(a) Waivers and Amendments. Such Defaulting Lenders right to approve or disapprove
any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in
the definition of Required Lenders and Section 9.9.
(b) Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by Administrative Agent
for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to
Article 7 or otherwise) or received by Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender
pursuant to Section 9.7 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by
Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting
Lender to Administrative Agent hereunder; second, as Borrower may request (so long as no Default or
Potential Default exists), to the funding of any advance in respect of which such Defaulting Lender
has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by
Administrative Agent; third, if so determined by Administrative Agent and Borrower, to be held in a
deposit account and released pro rata in order to satisfy such Defaulting Lenders potential future
funding obligations with respect to advances under this Agreement; fourth, to the payment of any
amounts owing to the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction
obtained by any Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lenders
breach of its obligations under this Agreement; fifth, so long as no Default or Potential Default
exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of
competent jurisdiction obtained by Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such
Defaulting Lenders breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and sixth, to such Defaulting
Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x)
such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any advances in respect of which such
Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such advances were made at a
time when the conditions for same, if any, were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied
solely to pay the advances of all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied
to the payment of any advances of such Defaulting Lender until such time as all advances are held
by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Commitments hereunder. Any payments, prepayments or
other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed
by a Defaulting Lender shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each
Lender irrevocably consents hereto.
8.13.2 Defaulting Lender Cure. If Borrower and Administrative Agent agree in writing that
a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto,
whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth
therein, that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding
advances of the other Lenders or take such other actions as Administrative Agent may determine to
be necessary to cause the Commitments (and outstanding principal balance of all advances) to be
held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares, whereupon such
Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made
retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of Borrower while that
Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent
otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to
Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that
Lenders having been a Defaulting Lender.
8.14 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 Agents or Lenders rights to later
assert them in whole or in part.
8.15 Co-Agents; Lead Managers. None of the Lenders or other Persons identified on the
facing page or signature pages of this Agreement as a syndication agent, documentation agent,
co-agent, bookrunner, or lead manager, arranger, lead arranger or co-arranger shall
have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement other
than, in the case of such lenders, those applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting the
foregoing, none of the Lenders or other Persons so identified as a syndication agent,
documentation agent, co-agent or lead manager shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary
relationship with any Lenders. Each Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely,
on any of Lenders or other Persons so identified in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in
taking or not taking action hereunder.
8.16 Lender Participation in Swap Transactions. If Borrower enters into any Swap
Transaction and Swap Contract with one or more Lenders, such Lender(s) shall notify each other
then-existing Lender of the terms of each such Swap Transaction and each then-existing Lender
(other than a Defaulting Lender) shall have the right in its sole discretion to participate in each
such Swap Transaction pro rata according to such Lenders Pro Rata Share of the amount of the
applicable Swap Transaction. All such participation interests shall be governed pursuant to
separate documentation.
8.17 Swap Contracts. Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, no Hedge Bank that
obtains the benefit of the provisions of Section 8.11 or any Collateral by virtue of the
provisions hereof or any Loan Document shall have any right to notice of any action or to consent
to, direct or object to any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document or otherwise in
respect of the Collateral (including the release or impairment of any Collateral) (or to notice of
or to consent to any amendment, waiver or modification of the provisions hereof or any Loan
Document) other than in its capacity as a Lender and, in such case, only to the extent expressly
provided in the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article VIII
to the contrary, Administrative Agent shall not be required to verify the payment of, or that other
satisfactory arrangements have been made with respect to, Obligations arising under Swap Contracts
except to the extent expressly provided herein and unless Administrative Agent has received a
Secured Party Designation Notice with respect to the related Swap Obligations, together with such
supporting documentation as Administrative Agent may request, from the applicable Hedge Bank.
Administrative Agent shall not be required to verify the payment of, or that other satisfactory
arrangements have been made with respect to, Obligations arising under Swap Contracts.
ARTICLE 9 GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
9.1 Consents; Borrowers Indemnity. Except where otherwise expressly provided in the Loan
Documents, in any instance where the approval, consent or the exercise of Administrative Agents or
Lenders judgment is required under any Loan Document, 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, environmental, engineering, property
condition or other inspection, audit, report or assessment, any contract, any change order, any
lease, or any other matter incident to the Property. Any appraisal, inspection, audit, report or
assessment of the Property or the books and records of Borrower or Guarantor, or the procuring of
documents and financial and other information, by or on behalf of Administrative Agent shall be for
Administrative Agents 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 or Guarantor of any of its
obligations. Neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall be liable or responsible for, and
Borrower shall indemnify Administrative Agent, each Lender and each Related Party of Administrative
Agent 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 attorneys fees and costs) arising from, relating to or otherwise in connection
with (i) the Leases, the Property, the Improvements and the other Collateral, including any defect
therein, (ii) any accounts of Borrower or the Property, (iii) the protection, preservation,
operation, management, improvement, maintenance, repair, sale and disposition of the Property and
other Collateral (including those with respect to Real Property Taxes, Insurance Premiums, and
leasing costs and broker fees) or (iv) 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 attorneys 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) any of the
matters described in the foregoing clause (a), (ii) 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, (iii) any Commitment or the Loan, including all claims by any
actual or alleged broker for Borrower or any Related Party of Borrower for brokerage fees in
connection with the Loan or (iv) 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, including all costs and expenses incurred by any Indemnitee in connection with any
subpoena, deposition or otherwise acting as a witness; (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
9.6) 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 attorneys 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 of 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. Further, Borrower shall not be obligated to
indemnify any of the Indemnitees from matters which relate solely to disputes or disagreements
among Lenders and/or Administrative Agent, or any default by any of the Lenders and/or
Administrative Agent of any of their respective obligations under this Agreement to Borrower or to
each other. 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. All payments on account of the Indemnified Liabilities shall be due and payable ten
(10) days after demand by Administrative Agent therefor. The indemnities in this Section
9.1 shall not terminate upon the release, foreclosure or other termination of the Mortgage but
will survive the release, foreclosure of the Mortgage or conveyance in lieu of foreclosure, the
repayment of the Indebtedness, the discharge and release of the Mortgage and the other Loan
Documents, any bankruptcy or other debtor relief proceeding, and any other event whatsoever.
9.2 Miscellaneous.
9.2.1 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts (and by
different parties hereto in different counterparts), all of which are identical, and all of which
counterparts together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
9.2.2 Effectiveness; Signature Copies. This Agreement shall become effective when it shall
have been executed by Administrative Agent and when Administrative Agent shall have received
counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties
hereto. Loan Documents, and all signed certificates and other documents delivered thereunder or in
connection therewith, may be transmitted and/or signed by facsimile or e-mail transmission (e.g.
pdf or tif). 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 or e-mail document or signature.
9.2.3 Electronic Signatures. The words execute, execution, signed, signature, and
words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption or in any amendment or other modification
hereof (including waivers and consents) shall be deemed to include electronic signatures, the
electronic matching of assignment terms and contract formations on electronic platforms approved by
Administrative Agent, or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the
same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a
paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any
applicable Law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or
any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.
9.2.4 Severability. A determination that any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan
Document 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 or circumstances. The parties shall endeavor in
good faith negotiations to replace the unenforceable or invalid provisions with valid provisions
the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the unenforceable or invalid
provisions. The unenforceability or invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall
not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. Without limiting
the foregoing provisions of this Section 9.2.4, if and to the extent that the
enforceability of any provisions in this Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be limited
by Debtor Relief Laws, as determined in good faith by Administrative Agent, then such provisions
shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited.
9.2.5 Time of the Essence. Time shall be of the essence with respect to Borrowers
obligations under the Loan Documents.
9.2.6 Governing Law. This Agreement and each other Loan Document (except to the extent
expressly set forth therein), and their respective validity, enforcement and interpretation, shall
be governed by the Laws of the State of Florida (without regard to any conflict of Laws principles)
and applicable United States federal Law.
9.3 Notices.
9.3.1 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 nationally recognized overnight courier service, by
registered or certified United States mail, postage prepaid, or by facsimile (with, subject to
Section 9.3.2, a confirmatory duplicate copy sent by one of the other methods of service),
addressed to the party to whom directed or by (subject to Section 9.3.3) electronic mail
addressed 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 9.3 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.
9.3.2 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 for other
purposes described herein, and may not be used for any other purpose.
9.3.3 Electronic Delivery.
(a) Documents required to be delivered pursuant to Sections 4.9 and 4.20 and
Exhibits B and J (to the extent any such documents are included in materials
otherwise filed with the SEC) may be delivered electronically and if so delivered, shall be deemed
to have been delivered on the date (i) on which Borrower posts such documents, or provides a link
thereto on Borrowers website on the Internet at the website address listed on Borrowers signature
page to this Agreement; or (ii) on which such documents are posted on Borrowers behalf on an
Internet or intranet website, if any, to which each Lender and Administrative Agent have access
(whether a commercial, third-party website or whether sponsored by Administrative Agent); provided
that: (A) Borrower shall deliver paper copies of such documents to Administrative Agent or any
Lender upon its request to Borrower to deliver such paper copies until a written request to cease
delivering paper copies is given by Administrative Agent or such Lender and (B) Borrower shall
notify Administrative Agent and each Lender (by facsimile or electronic mail) of the posting of any
such documents and provide to Administrative Agent by electronic mail electronic versions (i.e.,
soft copies) of such documents. Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to request the
delivery of or to maintain paper copies of the documents referred to above, and in any event shall
have no responsibility to monitor compliance by Borrower with any such request by a Lender for
delivery, and each Lender shall be solely responsible for requesting delivery to it or maintaining
its copies of such documents.
(b) Borrower hereby acknowledges that (i) Administrative Agent and/or Arranger may, but shall
not be obligated to, make available to the Lenders materials and/or information provided by or on
behalf of Borrower hereunder (collectively, Borrower Materials) by posting the Borrower
Materials on Debt Domain, IntraLinks, Syndtrak or another similar electronic system (the
Platform) and (ii) certain of the Lenders (each, a Public Lender) may have
personnel who do not wish to receive material non-public information with respect to Borrower or
its Affiliates, or the respective securities of any of the foregoing, and who may be engaged in
investment and other market-related activities with respect to such Persons securities. Borrower
hereby agrees that so long as Borrower is the issuer of any outstanding debt or equity securities
that are registered or issued pursuant to a private offering or is actively contemplating issuing
any such securities (w) all Borrower Materials that are to be made available to Public Lenders
shall be clearly and conspicuously marked PUBLIC which, at a minimum, shall mean that the word
PUBLIC shall appear prominently on the first page thereof; (A) by marking Borrower Materials
PUBLIC, Borrower shall be deemed to have authorized Administrative Agent, Arranger and Lenders to
treat such Borrower Materials as not containing any material non-public information with respect to
Borrower or its securities for purposes of United States Federal and state securities Laws
(provided, however, that to the extent such Borrower Materials constitute
Information, they shall be treated as set forth in Section 9.6); (B) all Borrower Materials
marked PUBLIC are permitted to be made available through a portion of the Platform designated
Public Side Information, and (C) Administrative Agent and Arranger shall be entitled to treat any
Borrower Materials that are not marked PUBLIC as being suitable only for posting on a portion of
the Platform not designated Public Side Information. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower
shall be under no obligation to mark any Borrower Materials PUBLIC.
9.3.4 Reliance by Administrative Agent and Lenders. Administrative Agent and Lenders shall
be entitled to rely and act upon any notices delivered in a manner specified herein purportedly
given by or on behalf of Borrower even if (i) such notices were incomplete, or (ii) the terms
thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof. Borrower shall
indemnify each Indemnitee 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.
9.4 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 any 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.
9.5 Successors and Assigns.
(a) Successors and Assigns Generally. Subject to Section 8.14, the provisions

the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of Administrative Agent and
Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

assigning Lenders Commitment and Pro Rata Share of the Loan at the time owing to it
or contemporaneous assignments to related Approved Funds that equal at least the

an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum
amount need be assigned; and
(B) in any case not described in Section 9.5(b)(i)(A), the aggregate

assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lenders rights and obligations
under this Agreement with respect to its Pro Rata Share of the Loan and the Commitment

(v) No Assignment to Certain Persons. No such assignment shall be made (A)
to Borrower, Guarantor or any other Person liable for any part of the Obligations or any
Affiliate or Subsidiary of the foregoing, (B) to any Defaulting Lender or any of its
Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any
of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (B), or (C) to a natural
Person.
(vi) Certain Additional Payments. In connection with any assignment of
rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be
effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein,
the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to Administrative Agent
in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be
outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or
other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of Borrower and
Administrative Agent, the applicable Pro Rata Share of the Loan previously requested but
not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and
assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment
liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to Administrative Agent or any Lender
hereunder (and interest accrued thereon) and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its
full Pro Rata Share of the Loan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any
assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become
effective under applicable Law without compliance with the provisions of this Section
9.5(b), then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender
for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.
Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by Administrative Agent pursuant to Section
9.5(c), from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the
assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement 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 Lenders 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 Borrowers obligations surviving
termination of this Agreement); provided, that except to the extent otherwise expressly
agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or
release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lenders having been a Defaulting
Lender. Upon request by Administrative Agent, Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver
substitute Note(s) to Administrative Agent for the assignee, and, for partial assignments, the
assignor in replacement of the assignors then-existing Note (each, a Replacement Note).
Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not
comply with this Section 9.5(b) 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 Section
9.5(d).
(c) Register. Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of
Borrower (and such agency being solely for tax purposes), shall forward the Assignment and
Assumption and the Replacement Note(s) to the Title Company for issuance of an applicable
endorsement to the Title Insurance or new Title Insurance, and shall maintain at Administrative
Agents Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it (or the equivalent thereof
in electronic form) and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of Lenders, and
the Commitments of, and the principal amount (and stated interest) of each Lenders 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 absent manifest error, and
Borrower, Administrative Agent and Lenders shall 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.
The Register shall be available for inspection by Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time
and from time to time upon reasonable prior written notice.
(d) Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to,
Borrower or Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural Person, a
Defaulting Lender, Borrower, Guarantor or any Affiliate or Subsidiary of Borrower or Guarantor)
(each, a Participant) in all or a portion of such Lenders 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 Lenders 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 Lenders shall
continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lenders rights and
obligations under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, each Lender shall be responsible for
the indemnity under Section 8.7 without regard to the existence of any 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; provided that such agreement
or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree
to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in the first proviso of Section
9.9 that affects such Participant. Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to
the benefits of Sections 2.1, and 2.4 to the same extent as if it were a Lender
and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 9.5(b) (it being understood
that the documentation required under Section 2.1(e) shall be delivered to the Lender who
sells the participation) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by
assignment pursuant to Section 9.5(b); provided that such Participant (A) agrees to
be subject to the provisions of Sections 2.6 and 9.12 as if it were an assignee
under Section 9.5(b) and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under
Section 2.1 or 2.4, with respect to any participation, than the Lender from whom it
acquired the applicable participation would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent
such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the
Participant acquired the applicable participation. Each Lender that sells a participation agrees,
at Borrowers written request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with Borrower to
effectuate the provisions of Section 2.6 with respect to any Participant. To the extent
permitted by Law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.7 as
though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section
9.8 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely
for this purpose as an agent of Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and
address of each Participant and the principal amount (and stated interest) of each Participants
interest in the Loan or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the Participant
Register); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any
portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information
relating to a Participants interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other
obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is
necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in
registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries
in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat
each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation
for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance
of doubt, Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no
responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.
(e) Certain Pledges. 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.
9.6 Confidentiality. Administrative Agent and each Lender 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, pledgee of or assignee of a security
interest in, or any prospective assignee of or participant in, or pledgee of or assignee of a
security interest in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, or (ii) any direct or
indirect contractual counterparty or prospective counterparty (or such contractual counterpartys
or prospective counterpartys professional advisor) to any Swap Transaction or credit derivative
transaction relating to obligations of Borrower or Guarantor; (g) with the consent of Borrower;
(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 Guarantor; 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 Closing Date, 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 9.6 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 the other Loan Documents and information about this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents 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.
9.7 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, with the prior written consent of Administrative Agent, 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 Lenders 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 Lenders 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.
9.8 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, 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 Lenders ratable share
(according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such paying Lenders 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 of its rights of payment
(including the right of set-off), but subject to Section 9.7 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.
9.9 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 8 or as to any other matter in the Loan Documents
respecting payments by and between Administrative Agent and 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. Except as set forth in the previous sentence, no
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 7.2), 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 Lenders
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 the 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 Lenders 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 9.9, or Section 9.8, without the written consent of
each Lender;
(g) permit the sale, transfer, pledge, mortgage or assignment of any 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
(h) transfer or release any lien on, or after foreclosure or other acquisition of title by
Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders transfer or sell, any Collateral except as permitted
in Section 8.10, without the prior 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 the 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 (and any amendment, waiver or
consent which by its terms requires the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender may be
effected with the consent of the applicable Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders), except that (x)
the Commitment of any Defaulting Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of
such Lender and (y) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or
each affected Lender that by its terms affects any Defaulting Lender disproportionately adversely
relative to other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender.
This Agreement shall continue in full force and effect until the Indebtedness is paid in full
and all of Administrative Agents 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 the resignation or removal of Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the
replacement of, any Lender, the termination of the Commitments, the termination of this Agreement
and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations.
9.10 Several Obligations; No Liability; No Release. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary set forth in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (a) the obligations of Lenders
hereunder to make Loan advances and to make payments pursuant to Sections 8.7 and
8.12 are several and not joint and (b) such obligations are and shall remain the several,
and not joint, obligations of Lenders despite 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. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan advance or to
make any payment under Section 8.7 or 8.12 on any date required hereunder shall not
relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall
be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan advance or to make its
payment under Section 8.7 or 8.12. 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 to take any action on behalf of another Lender
hereunder or in connection with the financing contemplated herein. In furtherance of the
foregoing, Lenders shall comply with their obligations under the Loan Documents, including the
obligations to make payments pursuant to Sections 8.7 and 8.12 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 Borrower or Guarantor. Such obligations
of Lenders are in all regards independent of any claims between Administrative Agent and any
Lender.
9.11 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 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 Agents counsel; (b) fees and charges of inspector and engineer engaged by
Administrative Agent; (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 reasonable 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 or administrative proceedings or proceedings under any Debtor Relief Law.
Borrower shall pay all costs and expenses of complying with the Loan Documents. Borrowers
obligations under this Section shall survive the delivery of the Loan Documents, the making of
advances, the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations, the termination of the
Commitments, the resignation or replacement of Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by,
or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of this Agreement, the release or reconveyance of
any of the Loan Documents, the foreclosure of the Mortgage or conveyance in lieu of foreclosure,
any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law, and any other event whatsoever. Borrower acknowledges
that Administrative Agent may receive a benefit, including a discount, credit or other
accommodation, from Administrative Agents counsel based on the fees such counsel may receive on
account of such counsels relationship with Administrative Agent, including fees paid in connection
with this Agreement.
9.12 Replacement of Lenders. If Borrower is entitled to replace a Lender pursuant to the
provisions of Section 2.6, or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender or a Non-Consenting
Lender, then Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and
Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance
with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 9.5),
all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to
Sections 2.1 and 2.4) and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan
Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another
Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that:
(a) Borrower shall have paid to Administrative Agent the assignment fee (if any) specified in
Section 9.5(b) and the other conditions set forth in Section 9.5(b) shall have been
satisfied;
(b) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the Principal Debt owing to
it, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under
the other Loan Documents from the assignee (to the extent of such Principal Debt and accrued
interest and fees) or Borrower (in case of all other amounts);
(c) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under
Section 2.4 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.1, such
assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; and
(d) such assignment does not conflict with applicable Laws; and
(e) in the case of an assignment resulting from a Lender becoming a Non-Consenting Lender, the
applicable assignee shall have consented to the applicable amendment, waiver or consent.
A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as
a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling Borrower to require
such assignment and delegation cease to apply.
9.13 Further Assurances. Borrower will, upon Administrative Agents 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 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
or any Lender to comply with the requirements of any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction
over Administrative Agent or such Lender. In addition, at any time, and from time to time, upon
request by Administrative Agent or any Lender, Borrower will, at Borrowers 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 Borrowers
identity and background in a manner satisfactory to Administrative Agent or such Lender.
9.14 Inducement to Lenders. The representations, warranties, covenants, and agreements
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 foreclosure, any conveyance (or assignment) in lieu of foreclosure, or any
proceedings under any Debtor Relief Law involving Borrower, Guarantor or the Property.
9.15 Forum. Borrower hereby irrevocably submits generally and unconditionally for itself
and in respect of its property to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any state court, or any United
States federal court, sitting in the State specified in Section 9.2 of this Agreement and
to the non-exclusive 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 suit, action or proceeding arising out
of or relating to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or the Obligations. Borrower hereby
irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, any objection that they 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. Borrower 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 Section 9.2 may be made by certified or registered mail, return receipt
requested, directed to such party at its address for notice stated in the Loan Documents, or at a
subsequent address of which Administrative Agent received actual notice from Borrower in accordance
with the Loan Documents, 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 any party in any other court or jurisdiction.
9.16 Interpretation. References to Articles, Sections, and Exhibits are, unless specified
otherwise, references to articles, sections and exhibits of this Agreement. Captions and headings
in the Loan Documents are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction of the Loan
Documents. All references (a) to the Loan Documents are to the same as extended, amended,
restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time unless expressly indicated
otherwise, and (b) to the Land, the Improvements or the Property shall mean all or any portion of
each of the foregoing, respectively. References to Dollars, $,
money, payments or other similar financial or monetary terms are references to
lawful money of the United States of America. Words of any gender shall include each other gender.
Words in the singular shall include the plural and words in the plural shall include the singular.
References to Borrower or Guarantor shall mean, each Person comprising same, jointly and
severally. The words herein, hereof, hereunder and other similar
compounds of the word here shall refer to this entire Agreement (including the attached
exhibits) and not to any particular Article, Section, paragraph or provision. The terms
agree and agreements mean and include covenant and
covenants. The words include and including shall be interpreted as
if followed by the words without limitation.
9.17 No Partnership, etc. The relationship between Lenders (including Administrative
Agent) and Borrower is solely that of lender and borrower. Neither Administrative Agent nor any
Lender has any fiduciary or other special relationship with or duty to Borrower and none is created
by the Loan Documents. Nothing contained in the Loan Documents, and no action taken or omitted
pursuant to the Loan Documents, is intended or shall be construed to create any partnership, joint
venture, association, or special relationship between Borrower and Administrative Agent or any
Lender or in any way make Administrative Agent or any Lender a co-principal with Borrower with
reference to the Property or otherwise. In no event shall Administrative Agents or Lenders
rights and interests under the Loan Documents be construed to give Administrative Agent or any
Lender the right to control, or be deemed to indicate that Administrative Agent or any Lender is in
control of, the business, properties, management or operations of Borrower.
9.18 Commercial Purpose. Borrower warrants that the Loan is being made solely to acquire
or carry on a business or commercial enterprise, and/or Borrower is a business or commercial
organization. Borrower further warrants that all of the proceeds of the Loan shall be used for
commercial purposes and stipulates that the Loan shall be construed for all purposes as a
commercial loan, and is made for other than personal, family, household or agricultural purposes.
9.19 Usury. It is expressly stipulated and agreed to be the intent of Borrower,
Administrative Agent and 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
9.19 shall control every other covenant and agreement in this Agreement, the Notes 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 any of the Loan Documents, or
contracted for, charged, taken, reserved, or received with respect to the Loan, or if
Administrative Agents 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 Agents and each Lenders express intent that all excess amounts
theretofore collected by Administrative Agent or any Lender shall be credited on the Principal Debt
and all other Indebtedness and the provisions of the 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.
9.20 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST
EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING
OR ACTION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE NOTE, THE
MORTGAGE, OR ANY OTHER DOCUMENT EXECUTED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED
HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY:
(a) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT, OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PERSON HAS REPRESENTED,
EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO
ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER; (b) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THIS WAIVER AND THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION

in connection with Administrative Agents negotiation of subordination agreements and
subordination, nondisturbance and attornment agreements with tenants, 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.
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. Covenants Regarding Leases. (a) Borrower agrees that (i) Borrower will observe and
perform in all material respects all of the obligations imposed upon the landlord in the Leases and
will not do or permit to be done anything to impair the security thereof; (ii) Borrower will use
its commercially reasonable efforts to enforce or secure, or cause to be enforced or secured, the

proceeding arising under, or in any manner connected with, the Leases; (iii) no Rents will be

Administrative Agent 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

under any Lease, renew or extend any Lease except 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, or settle or compromise any claim against a tenant under a Lease in
bankruptcy or otherwise; (vi) Borrower will not, without the prior written consent of
Administrative Agent, 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, in Administrative
Agents judgment, at least equivalent to that of the tenant whose Lease was cancelled, on
substantially the same terms as the terminated or cancelled Lease; (vii) Borrower will not execute
any Lease except in accordance with the Loan Documents and for actual occupancy by the tenant
thereunder; and (viii) Borrower shall give prompt notice to Administrative Agent, as soon as
Borrower 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 Borrower shall defend, at Borrowers expense, any
proceeding pertaining to any Lease, including, if Administrative Agent so requests, any such
proceeding to which Administrative Agent is a party. Borrower further covenants that Borrower will
not, and will not permit or knowingly suffer a tenant under any Lease of space in the Improvements

could otherwise result in the occurrence of a Default under Section 7.1(n), including the
commencement of any proceedings under the Civil Asset Forfeiture Reform Act.

Leases, with the fee estate of the Land without the prior written consent and express written
agreement of Administrative Agent; and (ii) Administrative Agent may at any time and from time to
time by specific written instrument intended for the purpose, unilaterally subordinate the lien of
the Mortgage to any Lease, without joinder or consent of, or notice to, Borrower, any tenant or any
other Person. 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 the Mortgage to any Lease.
4. Estoppel Certificates. All Leases shall require the tenant to execute and deliver
to Administrative Agent an estoppel certificate in form and substance acceptable to Administrative
Agent within fifteen (15) days after notice from the Administrative Agent (or with respect solely
to the Skechers Lease, such other time period for the delivery of estoppel certificates as may be

being acknowledged and agreed that Administrative Agent and the Lenders have already received and
approved the documentation described in subsections (a), (c), and (e) above with respect to the
Skechers Lease).
6. Compliance and Default. Borrower shall promptly notify Administrative Agent in
writing of any failure by any Person 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.

Skechers Lease is acceptable to Administrative Agent and Lenders and Borrower shall comply with the

the contrary contained herein, Borrower shall not modify any terms or provisions of the Skechers

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, ([individually and
collectively,] Borrower) hereby promises to pay to the order of as
a Lender under that certain Loan Agreement (as the same may be amended or modified from
time to time, the Loan Agreement), dated as of [ , 20 ] [the date hereof]
among Borrower, certain lenders, and Bank of America, N.A., a national banking association, as
Administrative Agent (together with any and all of its successors and assigns in such capacity,
Administrative Agent), without offset, in immediately available funds in lawful money of
the United States of America, at the Administrative Agents 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. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise
defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Loan Agreement.
1. Note; Interest; Payment Schedule. This Note (as may be amended, modified,
supplemented, restated and replaced from time to time, the Note) is [one of] the Note[s]
referred to in the Loan Agreement and is entitled to the benefits thereof [and subject to
prepayment in whole or in part as provided therein]. 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
(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 , 20 ] [of even date herewith] from Borrower to
, covering certain property in [CITY], [COUNTY], State of
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, in whole or in part, 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) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default, Administrative Agent on
behalf of the Lender and the other 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 the Lender and the other 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, Lender and the other Lenders to exercise, and no
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 the holder hereof 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, Lender and the other 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, (ii) constitute a waiver of the requirement of
punctual payment and performance or a novation in any respect, or (iii) in any way excuse the
existence of a Default.
(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 such holder, in addition to principal, interest and any other sums owing to such
holder 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 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 Borrower and Lender and their respective
successors and assigns permitted by the Loan Agreement. The foregoing sentence shall not be
construed to permit Borrower to assign the Loan except as otherwise permitted under the Loan
Agreement. As further provided in the Loan Agreement, 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 Borrowers obligations
under this Note. If more than one Person 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 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; (e) waive the benefit of all homestead and similar
exemptions as to this Note; (f) agree that their liability under this Note shall not be affected or
impaired by any determination that any security interest or lien given to secure this Note is
invalid or unperfected; and (g) 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. The words include and including shall be
interpreted as if followed by the words without limitation. THIS NOTE, AND ITS VALIDITY,
ENFORCEMENT AND INTERPRETATION, SHALL BE GOVERNED BY FLORIDA 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 the holder hereof
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 and
Lender at all times to comply with applicable state law or applicable United States federal law (to
the extent that it permits 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 Lenders 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 Lenders express intent that all excess amounts
theretofore collected by 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 Lender 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 (the Maximum Rate) for so long as the Loan is outstanding. The Lender
may, in determining the Maximum Rate, take advantage of: (i) the rate of interest permitted by
Florida Statutes, Chapter 658, by reason of both Section 687.12 Florida Statutes (Interest rates;
parity among licensed lenders or creditors) and 12 United States Code, Sections 85 and 86, and
(ii) any other law, rule, or regulation in effect from time to time, available to Lender which
exempts Lender from any limit upon the rate of interest it may charge or grants to Lender the right
to charge a higher rate of interest than that allowed by Florida Statutes, Chapter 687
8. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF BORROWER AND LENDER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO
THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY
LEGAL PROCEEDING OR ACTION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS NOTE AND
HERREBY: (a) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT, OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PERSON HAS
REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION,
SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER; (b) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THIS WAIVER AND THE PROVISIONS OF THIS
SECTION WERE A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR THE PARTIES ENTERING INTO THE LOAN DOCUMENTS; (c) CERTIFIES
THAT THIS WAIVER IS KNOWINGLY, WILLINGLY, AND VOLUNTARILY MADE; (d) AGREES AND UNDERSTANDS THAT
THIS WAIVER CONSTITUTES A WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY OF ALL CLAIMS AGAINST ALL PARTIES TO SUCH
PROCEEDING OR ACTION, INCLUDING CLAIMS AGAINST PARTIES WHO ARE NOT PARTIES TO THIS OR ANY OTHER
AGREEMENT, AND FURTHER AGREES THAT SUCH PARTY SHALL NOT SEEK TO CONSOLIDATE ANY SUCH PROCEEDING OR
ACTION WITH ANY OTHER PROCEEDING OR ACTION IN WHICH A JURY TRIAL CANNOT BE OR HAS NOT BEEN WAIVED;
(e) AGREES THAT BORROWER AND LENDER ARE EACH HEREBY AUTHORIZED TO FILE A COPY OF THIS SECTION IN
ANY PROCEEDING OR ACTION AS CONCLUSIVE EVIDENCE OF THIS WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL; AND (f) REPRESENTS
AND WARRANTS THAT SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN REPRESENTED IN THE SIGNING OF THIS AGREEMENT 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 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 I
SWAP CONTRACTS
1. Swap Documentation. Borrower shall deliver to Swap Counterparty the following
documents and other items, executed and acknowledged as appropriate, all in form and substance
satisfactory to Administrative Agent 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) an acknowledgment from Swap Counterparty agreeing, among
other things, to pay to Administrative Agent all payments due from Swap Counterparty pursuant to
the Swap Contract; (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 (e) such other title endorsements, documents, instruments, opinions and agreements as
Administrative Agent and Swap Counterparty may require to evidence satisfaction of the conditions
set forth in this Section 1, including a swap endorsement to the Title Insurance in form and
substance satisfactory to Administrative Agent to the extent available.
2. Conveyance and Security Interest. To secure the Obligations, Borrower hereby
transfers, assigns and transfers to Administrative Agent, and grants to Administrative Agent a
security interest in, all of Borrowers 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
Administrative Agent and shall be applied to such Obligations as Administrative Agent determines in
its sole discretion (except upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default, in which
event Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to apply same to the Obligations).
3. Cross-Default. It shall be a Default under this Agreement if any default occurs as
defined under any Swap Contract as to which Borrower (or its Affiliate) is the Defaulting Party and
is not cured prior to the expiration of any applicable cure or notice period, 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.
4. Remedies; Cure Rights. In addition to any and all other remedies to which
Administrative Agent, Lenders 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. 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 (or its Affiliate) such action
as Administrative Agent 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 Administrative Agent shall give
prior written notice to Borrower before taking any such action. For this purpose, Borrower hereby
constitutes Administrative Agent 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 Administrative Agent, 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 Administrative Agent 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
Administrative Agent shall deem advisable. Administrative Agent shall not incur any liability if
any action so taken by Administrative Agent or on its behalf shall prove to be inadequate or
invalid. Borrower expressly understands and agrees that Administrative Agent 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.
5. Miscellaneous Covenants.
(a) Borrower shall, upon entering into any Swap Contract, pay all sums required to be paid by
Borrower thereunder. Borrower shall keep the Swap Contract in full force and effect, and shall not
amend or permit the amendment of same without the prior consent of Administrative Agent.
(b) In the event that Borrower breaches any of its obligations pursuant to Section 1 or
Section 5(a) of this Exhibit I, in addition to all other rights and remedies of
Administrative Agent and Lenders, Administrative Agent may, but shall have no obligation to, at
Borrowers sole cost and expense and on Borrowers behalf, enter into a Swap Contract required
hereunder. Borrower hereby constitutes Administrative Agent its true and lawful attorney-in-fact
with full power of substitution, which power of attorney is coupled with an interest and
irrevocable, to enter into such Swap Contract if Borrower fails to do so within two (2) days after
written demand from Administrative Agent or at any time after the occurrence of and during the
continuance of a Default or to amend and terminate such Swap Contract, pay all sums due thereunder,
and generally to take any and all such action in relation thereto as Administrative Agent shall
deem advisable. Administrative Agent shall not incur any liability if any action so taken by
Administrative Agent or on its behalf shall prove to be inadequate or invalid. Borrower expressly
understands and agrees that Administrative Agent is not hereby assuming any duties or obligations
of Borrower under any Swap Contract or under any other Loan Document. All payment duties to the
Swap Counterparty, and other obligations under such Swap Contract entered into by Administrative
Agent on behalf of Borrower, shall be the responsibility of Borrower notwithstanding any language
in this Agreement.
(c) No Swap Contract shall alter, impair, restrict, limit or modify in any respect the
obligation of Borrower to pay interest or other sums due under the Loan Documents, as and when the
same become due and payable.
