  (f)

Borrower may request a Revolving Mezz Advance from Mezz Lender to refinance any Eligible Aged Portfolio Property, other than a Buyer Boost Advance or an SFR Advance (an “Aged Inventory Refinancing Advance”). If a Loan Request is actually received by Mezz Lender by no later than 9:00 a.m. prevailing East Coast time on a Business Day or if received after such time, on the next Business Day, Mezz Lender shall make a Revolving Mezz Advance to Borrower equal to 70% of the lesser of (i) the Cost of each Eligible Aged Portfolio Property that is the subject of such advance and (ii) the Property Valuation of each such Eligible Aged Portfolio Property (provided that for any Portfolio Property with a Cost greater than $500,000, such Property Valuation shall be evidenced by a third-party appraisal), and to the extent there are any outstanding Revolving Advances applicable to the Portfolio Property being refinanced, Borrower shall use the proceeds of such Aged Inventory Refinancing Advance to repay such Revolving Advances as required by Section 2.4(g).

 

  (g)

Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision herein to the contrary, at the request of Borrower, each Lender may, in its sole discretion, make (i) any requested Revolving Senior Advance that, when taken together with all then-outstanding Revolving Senior Advances, exceeds the Revolving Senior Committed Amount but does not exceed the Revolving Senior Loan Amount, (ii) any requested Primary Mezz Advance that, when taken together with all then-outstanding Primary Mezz Advances, exceeds the Primary Mezz Committed Amount but does not exceed the Primary Mezz Loan Amount and/or (iii) any requested Aged Inventory Refinancing Advance that, when taken together with all then-outstanding Aged Inventory Refinancing Advances, exceeds the Aged Inventory Committed Amount but does not exceed the Aged Inventory Loan Amount (any such advance, an “Excess

 

21


  Advance”), provided that any Excess Advance (x) shall bear an interest premium of two percent above the Interest Rate or Mezz Interest Rate, as applicable and (y) may be made with such other terms and conditions, if any, as the Lender making such Excess Advance shall deem appropriate in its sole discretion.

2.4. Payment of Principal and Interest.

 

  (a)

Promise to Pay. Borrower unconditionally promises to pay (i) Senior Lender the outstanding principal amount of all Revolving Senior Advances and accrued and unpaid interest thereon as and when due in accordance with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and (ii) Mezz Lender the outstanding principal amount of all Revolving Mezz Advances made by Mezz Lender and accrued and unpaid interest thereon as and when due in accordance with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

 

  (b)

Scheduled Principal Payments. Each Revolving Senior Advance, each Revolving Mezz Advance and all other Obligations shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date or on any earlier acceleration thereof. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, so long as there is no continuing and uncured Event of Default existing on and as of the Maturity Date, Borrower may repay its outstanding Revolving Advances through but no later than the Runoff Date but otherwise in accordance with the other provisions of this Section 2.4.

 

  (c)

Mandatory Prepayment. Within two Business Days of the date of receipt by Borrower of proceeds from the sale or other disposition of a Portfolio Property, Borrower shall prepay in full and with all accrued interest, the applicable outstanding Revolving Senior Advances and Revolving Mezz Advances that were advanced to purchase and improve such Portfolio Property.

 

  (d)

Overadvance. Subject to the Pricing Side Letter, at any time that the sum of aggregate outstanding (i) Revolving Senior Advances (other than any Excess Advance(s)) exceeds the Revolving Senior Loan Amount, (ii) Revolving Mezz Advances (other than any Excess Advance(s)) exceeds the Revolving Mezz Loan Amount, (iii) Primary Mezz Advances (other than any Excess Advance(s)) exceeds the Primary Mezz Loan Amount, (iv) Aged Inventory Refinancing Advances (other than any Excess Advance(s)) exceeds the Aged Inventory Refinancing Loan Amount and/or (v) Revolving Advances exceeds the Revolving Advance Borrowing Base, Borrower shall, in each case, immediately pay to each Lender in cash the amount of such excess (subject to Section 2.4(i)).

 

  (e)

Termination. The obligation to make Revolving Senior Advances and Revolving Mezz Advances terminates on the last day of the applicable Availability Period.

 

22


  (f)

Interest. Interest shall accrue on each Revolving Senior Advance at the Interest Rate and each Revolving Mezz Advance at the Mezz Interest Rate (in each case, subject to the provisions of Section 2.3(g)) and shall be due to each Lender on the first Business Day of each calendar month; provided, however, on the date of each Revolving Senior Advance and each Revolving Mezz Advance, Borrower shall pay stub interest on such Revolving Senior Advance and Revolving Mezz Advance from the date made to Borrower through the last day of the calendar month in which such Revolving Advance is made. In computing interest, the date of the making of any Revolving Advance shall be included and the date of payment shall be excluded; provided, however, that if any Revolving Advance is repaid on the same day on which it is made, such day shall be included in computing interest on such Revolving Advance. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed.

 

  (g)

Obligation to Repay Revolving Advances. At no time shall the aggregate amount of all outstanding Revolving Advances (including the amount of any Revolving Advance being requested) exceed the Revolving Advance Borrowing Base. In furtherance of the foregoing:

 

  (i)

Borrower shall repay to the Lenders, in accordance with the payment allocations set forth in Section 2.4(i), each Revolving Advance (other than a Revolving Auction Advance, SFR Advance or Aged Inventory Refinancing Advance) based on the Revolving Advance Schedule (as defined in the Pricing Side Letter) and determined by reference to the number of days that have elapsed since the date of such Revolving Advance (provided that, notwithstanding such schedule, all such Revolving Advances shall be paid in full upon any earlier acceleration thereof).

 

  (ii)

Borrower shall repay to the Lenders, in accordance with the payment allocations set forth in Section 2.4(i), each Revolving Advance that is a Revolving Auction Advance based on the Revolving Auction Advance Schedule (as defined in the Pricing Side Letter) and determined by reference to the number of days that have elapsed since the date of such Revolving Advance (provided that, notwithstanding such schedule, all such Revolving Advances shall be paid in full upon any earlier acceleration thereof).

Without limiting the foregoing, (A) if an Auction Purchase does not become an Approved Auction Purchase within 45 days of the date of the Auction Advance with respect to such Auction Purchase or (B) upon a court having jurisdiction over an Auction finally determining that it will not approve such Auction Purchase, Borrower shall, within five days of the deadline set forth in subsection (A) of this sentence or, if earlier, within five days of the date of the court determination set forth in subsection (B) of this sentence, repay each such Revolving Advance made with respect to such Auction Purchase (and any accrued interest thereon).

 

  (iii)

Borrower shall repay to the Lenders, in accordance with the payment allocations set forth in Section 2.4(i), each Revolving Advance that is an SFR Advance based on the SFR Advance Schedule (as defined in the Pricing Side Letter) and determined by reference to the number of days that have elapsed since the date of such Revolving Advance (provided that, notwithstanding such schedule, all such Revolving Advances shall be paid in full upon any earlier acceleration thereof).

 

23


On the 360-day anniversary of each SFR Advance (the “SFR 1-Year Anniversary”), Borrower shall, at its expense, obtain a valuation of the underlying SFR Portfolio Property (the result of such valuation, the “SFR Valuation”). Borrower shall repay each such SFR Advance, in accordance with the payment allocations set forth in Section 2.4(i), in an amount equal to the SFR Valuation Percentage (as defined in the Pricing Side Letter) of the SFR Valuation every 30 days following the SFR 1-Year Anniversary until such SFR Advance is fully repaid.

 

  (iv)

Borrower shall repay to the Lenders, in accordance with the payment allocations set forth in Section 2.4(i), each Revolving Advance that is an Aged Inventory Refinancing Advance based on the Aged Inventory Advance Schedule (as defined in the Pricing Side Letter) and determined by reference to the number of days that have elapsed since the date of such Revolving Advance (provided that, notwithstanding such schedule, all such Revolving Advances shall be paid in full upon any earlier acceleration thereof).

 

  (v)

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if a Property that is the subject of a Same-Day Borrowing fails to become a Portfolio Property within two Business Days following the funding of the Same-Day Borrowing, Borrower shall repay to the Lenders, in accordance with the payment allocations set forth in Section 2.4(i), the amounts described in, and in accordance with, Section 2.3(e).

 

  (h)

Voluntary Prepayment. Borrower may, on any Business Day, subject to Section 2.7, prepay to Senior Lender any Revolving Senior Advance, in whole or in part, together with all accrued and unpaid interest owing with respect to the amount to be prepaid to the date of such prepayment. If, and only if, no amount is outstanding with respect to the corresponding Revolving Senior Advance as to a particular Portfolio Property, Borrower may, on any Business Day, subject to Section 2.7, prepay to Mezz Lender any Revolving Mezz Advance, in whole or in part, together with all accrued and unpaid interest owing with respect to the amount to be prepaid to the date of such prepayment. For the avoidance of doubt, Borrower may not prepay any Revolving Mezz Advance at any time when there is any amount outstanding under the corresponding Revolving Senior Advance.

 

  (i)

Allocation of Payments. All payments and proceeds (of whatever nature) received with respect to Revolving Advances made by Senior Lender and Mezz Lender will be retained by such Lenders and be allocated as between them (and solely between them) in accordance with this Section. Subject to the Pricing Side Letter, any such payments and proceeds will be allocated in the following order of priority: first, in an amount equal to the accrued and outstanding reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees and expenses of Lenders (including, without limitation, Lenders’

 

24


  reasonable and documented out-of-pocket attorney’s fees (including, without limitation, those of Cogent Legal Services LLC), second, in an amount equal to the accrued and unpaid interest on the Revolving Senior Note with respect to the related Revolving Senior Advance; third, in an amount equal to the unpaid principal portion on the Revolving Senior Note with respect to the related Revolving Senior Advance until the related Revolving Senior Advance is paid in full; fourth, in an amount equal to the accrued and unpaid interest on the Revolving Mezz Note with respect to the related Revolving Mezz Advance; fifth, in an amount equal to the unpaid principal portion on the Revolving Mezz Note with respect to the related Revolving Mezz Advance until the related Revolving Mezz Advance is paid in full; and sixth, any amount remaining, to Borrower. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) at any time as there is a continuing Event of Default and/or (b) from and after the Sequential Date, Mezz Lender may not receive any payment until and unless Senior Lender has been paid in full for all Obligations owed to it.

 

  (j)

Property Valuations. Borrower shall, at its expense, obtain a Property Valuation of each SFR Portfolio Property underlying an outstanding SFR Advance upon (i) the SFR 1-Year Anniversary with respect to such SFR Advance or (ii) the conversion of any Revolving Advance into an SFR Advance pursuant to Section 2.4(k). Additionally, any Lender may in its discretion from time to time, but not more often than once within a 180 day period, seek to confirm the valuation of the Portfolio Properties by obtaining a Property Valuation by providing a written notice to Borrower (a “Property Valuation Notice”). Such Property Valuations (which, for the avoidance of doubt, will cover all the Portfolio Properties) will be at the expense of Borrower. Borrower will obtain Property Valuations for all such Portfolio Properties within 30 days following the Property Valuation Notice. For any such Portfolio Property that is under contract to be sold as of the date of the Property Valuation Notice, the Property Valuation of such Portfolio Property will be the sales price set forth in the sale contract. For all other such Portfolio Properties, the Property Valuation of such Portfolio Properties will be as set forth in one or more broker’s price opinions using real estate brokers reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Lender(s). If the sum of the so-ascertained values of such Portfolio Properties obtained pursuant to a Property Valuation Notice is less than the aggregate Cost of such Portfolio Properties (each such difference, a “Valuation Shortfall”), Borrower shall make a prepayment equal to the excess of the aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Senior Loans and Revolving Mezz Loans over the Revolving Advance Borrowing Base (calculated on a pro forma basis as if the Property Valuations most recently obtained were the Property Valuations in existence on the date the applicable loan was funded).1 Such prepayment shall be made within 10 Business Days of written notice by the Lenders to Borrower of such Valuation Shortfall. Such prepayment shall be applied to pay down the applicable Revolving Senior Loan and/or Revolving Mezz Loan, as the case may be, by an amount equal to the Valuation Shortfall for each such Portfolio Property for which the Valuation Shortfall is largest, until the Valuation Shortfall is reduced to zero.

  (k)

SFR Conversion/Eligibility. Borrower may, at any time, convert any Revolving Advance that is not an SFR Advance to an SFR Advance (each, an “SFR Conversion”) by notifying the Lenders in writing of its intent to effect such SFR Conversion, provided that, at the time of such SFR Conversion, (i) the Portfolio Property underlying such Revolving Advance qualifies as an SFR Portfolio Property and (ii) Borrower has a lease agreement on such underlying Portfolio Property to provide monthly rent in an amount that is no less than 0.7% of the Cost with respect to such Portfolio Property ((i) and (ii), collectively, the “SFR Eligibility Conditions”). At the time of any such SFR Conversion, Borrower shall, at its expense, obtain a valuation of the underlying Portfolio Property (the result of such valuation, the “SFR Conversion Valuation”) and, if the SFR Conversion Valuation is less than the Cost with respect to such underlying Portfolio Property at the time the original Revolving Advance was made (an “SFR Conversion Shortfall”), (A) Borrower shall immediately pay the amount of such SFR Conversion Shortfall to the Lenders in accordance with the payment allocation set forth in Section 2.4(i) and (B) the amount of the original Revolving Advance shall be deemed to be reduced by the amount of such SFR Conversion Shortfall. If, at any time following the 180-day anniversary of the date on which any SFR Advance was originally made (including any Revolving Advance that was subsequently converted into an SFR Advance pursuant to this Section 2.4(k)), the SFR Eligibility Conditions fail to be met with respect to the SFR Portfolio Property underlying such SFR Advance for 90 consecutive days, such SFR Advance shall automatically convert into, and be governed by the terms applicable to, a Revolving Advance that is not an SFR Advance.

 

26


2.5. Commitment Fee. For each calendar quarter during the Availability Period, Borrower shall pay to the Lenders (ratably, based on relative Committed Amounts) a non-refundable Commitment Fee. The Commitment Fee shall be calculated as of the beginning of each calendar quarter, and fully earned as of the beginning of each such calendar quarter, for and with respect to Advances made available hereunder during such calendar quarter. Each fully earned Commitment Fee shall be due and payable on a quarterly basis on the first Business Day of each calendar quarter, and any unpaid portion thereof shall be immediately due and payable upon any acceleration of the Obligations hereunder or upon the Maturity Date.

2.6. Unused Facility Fee. For each calendar quarter during the Availability Period, Borrower shall pay to the Lenders (ratably, based on relative unused Committed Amounts) an Unused Facility Fee. Each Unused Facility Fee shall be payable in arrears within 15 Business Days following the end of the applicable calendar quarter, and any unpaid portion thereof shall be immediately due and payable upon any acceleration of the Obligations hereunder or upon the Maturity Date.

2.7. Voluntary Prepayment Fee. If, at any time prior to the Maturity Date, Borrower makes a voluntary prepayment on any Advance pursuant to Section 2.4(h) (the amount of any such prepayment(s), the “Voluntary Prepayment Amount”), the Borrower shall pay to the Lenders (ratably, based on relative Voluntary Prepayment Amounts) a Voluntary Prepayment Fee with respect to such Voluntary Prepayment Amount. Each Voluntary Prepayment Fee shall be payable within 15 Business Days following the applicable prepayment(s), and any unpaid portion thereof shall be immediately due and payable upon any acceleration of the Obligations hereunder or upon the Maturity Date.

2.8. Maturity and Extension.

 

  (a)

Notification of Extension. Borrower may request to extend the Maturity Date for up to two additional one-year periods from the then-applicable Maturity Date by written notice to Lenders (each such notice, an “Extension Notice”) not later than 90 days prior to the then-applicable Maturity Date. If such notice is timely given, Senior Lender and Mezz Lender shall notice Borrower by no later than 15 days after they each receive such notice whether they each consent to an extension of the applicable Maturity Date, such decision to be made at the sole discretion of Senior Lender and Mezz Lender. If both Senior Lender and Mezz Lender consent to such an extension, the applicable Maturity Date shall then be so extended.

 

  (b)

Conditions Precedent to Effectiveness of Maturity Date Extensions. As conditions precedent to the effectiveness of any such extension, each of the following requirements shall be satisfied or waived on or prior to the then-applicable Maturity Date, as determined in good faith by Lenders (the first date on which such conditions precedent are satisfied or waived with respect to the then-applicable Maturity Date, an “Extension Effective Date”):

 

  (i)

Lenders and the Collateral Agent shall have received an Extension Notice within the period required under clause (a) above and each Lender has consented to such extension under clause (a) above;

 

27


  (ii)

On the date of such Extension Notice and both immediately before and immediately after giving effect to such extension of the Maturity Date, there is no continuing and uncured Event of Default; and

 

  (iii)

Lenders shall have received a certificate of Borrower dated as of the Extension Effective Date, signed by an authorized officer of Borrower (i) certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by Borrower approving or consenting to such extension and (ii) certifying that, before and after giving effect to such extension, (A) the representations and warranties contained in Section 4 are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the Extension Effective Date, except (x) to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they are true and correct as of such earlier date, and (y) any representation or warranty that is already by its terms qualified as to “materiality”, “Material Adverse Change” or similar language shall be true and correct in all respects as of such date after giving effect to such qualification and (B) there is no continuing and uncured Event of Default.

 

  (c)

Effectiveness of Extensions. Any extension of the Maturity Date shall become effective on the Extension Effective Date and Lenders shall promptly confirm to Borrower such effectiveness.

2.9. Making of Revolving Advances. Each Revolving Advance shall be conclusively deemed to have been made at the request of and for the benefit of Borrower when paid in accordance with Borrower’s written instructions.

2.10. Monthly Statement. At the option of Senior Lender and/or Mezz Lender, in each case in their sole discretion, after the end of each calendar month, Senior Lender and/or Mezz Lender may render to Borrower a written statement of the Revolving Senior Loan account and Revolving Mezz Loan account, as the case may be, showing all applicable credits and debits. Each statement shall be considered correct and to have been accepted by Borrower and shall be conclusively binding upon Borrower in respect of all charges, debits and credits of whatsoever nature contained therein respecting the applicable Revolving Advances, and the closing balance shown therein, unless Borrower notifies the applicable Lender in writing of any discrepancy within 20 days of the issuance of such statement by such Lender to Borrower.

3. SECURITY INTEREST CREATED; OBLIGATIONS SECURED.

3.1. Appointment of Collateral Agent. Each of Senior Lender and Mezz Lender hereby appoint the Collateral Agent (and the Collateral Agent hereby accepts such appointment) to take any action including, without limitation, the registration of any Collateral in the name of the Collateral Agent or its nominees prior to or during the continuance of an Event of Default, the exercise of voting rights upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the application of any cash collateral received by the Collateral Agent to the payment of the Obligations, the making of any demand under the Loan Documents, the exercise of any remedies given to Lenders or the Collateral Agent pursuant to the Loan Documents and the exercise of any authority pursuant to the appointment of the Collateral Agent as an attorney-in-fact that the

 

28


Collateral Agent deems necessary or proper for the administration of the Collateral pursuant to the Loan Documents. Upon realizing on any of the Collateral in accordance with the Loan Documents, the Collateral Agent shall promptly distribute any cash or Collateral in accordance with the term hereof (including, without limitation, Section 2.4(i)) to Lenders and, if applicable, Borrower. Lenders must notify Collateral Agent in writing of the existence of future Obligations owed by Borrower to Lenders. The Collateral Agent will not be required to act hereunder in connection with future Obligations the existence of which was not disclosed in writing to the Collateral Agent nor will the Collateral Agent be required to act on behalf of any assignee of Obligations without the written consent of Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent will not be responsible or liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it hereunder or any other Loan Document except for an inaction or inaction arising from Collateral Agent’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

3.2. Grant of Security Interest. Borrower hereby grants to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of Senior Lender and Mezz Lender, to secure the payment and performance in full of all of the Obligations owed to either or both of them, a continuing security interest in, and assigns by way of collateral to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of Senior Lender and Mezz Lender, the Collateral, wherever located, whether now owned or hereafter acquired or arising, and all proceeds and products thereof.

3.3. Financing Statements. Borrower hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of Senior Lender and Mezz Lender, to prepare and file financing statements with respect to the security interests granted hereby, continuation statements with respect thereto, and any amendments to such financing statements that may be necessitated to continue to perfect each such Lender’s interest in the Collateral. Borrower agrees that, notwithstanding any provision in the Code to the contrary, Borrower shall not file a termination statement with respect to any financing statement filed by the Collateral Agent in connection with any security interest granted under this Agreement if the Collateral Agent reasonably objects to the filing of such termination statement.

3.4. Insurance. All liability insurance policies (with the exception of worker’s compensation insurance to the extent not available under statutory law) shall designate each Lender and its successors and assigns as additional insureds as their interests may appear.

3.5. Further Assurances. The Collateral Agent, for the benefit of Senior Lender and Mezz Lender, shall at all times have a perfected security interest in the Collateral that shall be prior to any other interests therein other than Liens permitted under Section 6.2. Borrower shall do all acts and things, shall execute and file all instruments (including security agreements, UCC financing statements, continuation statements, etc.) requested by Collateral Agent to establish, maintain and continue the perfected security interest in the Collateral and shall promptly on demand pay all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses of (i) filing and recording, including the costs of any searches reasonably deemed necessary by Collateral Agent from time to time to establish and determine the validity and the continuing priority of such security interest, and (ii) all other claims and charges that in the reasonable opinion of Collateral Agent might prejudice, imperil or otherwise affect the Collateral or security interest thereon. Borrower agrees that a carbon, photographic or other reproduction of a security agreement or financing statement shall be sufficient as a financing statement. The Collateral Agent is hereby irrevocably appointed as attorney-in-fact for Borrower to take any of the foregoing actions requested of Borrower by Collateral Agent if Borrower should fail to take such actions, which appointment shall be deemed coupled with an interest.

 

29


3.6. Cross Collateralization. Borrower acknowledges that the Revolving Senior Advances and Revolving Mezz Advances and all other Obligations owed to Senior Lender and Mezz Lender are, and shall at all times be, cross collateralized. Borrower acknowledges that the Obligations owed to Senior Lender and Mezz Lender are cross guaranteed by the Guarantors and cross defaulted.

3.7. Subordination of Mezz Loans; Turnover. Notwithstanding anything herein or otherwise to the contrary, each of Senior Lender and Mezz Lender, respectively, agree that Revolving Mezz Advances made by Mezz Lender will be subordinate and junior with respect to the Collateral and right of payment to the Revolving Senior Advances made by Senior Lender. At any time as there is a continuing and uncured Event of Default and/or from and after the Sequential Date, (a) no payments in respect of a Revolving Mezz Loans may be made to Mezz Lender until all Obligations owed to the related Senior Lender have been paid in full and (b) all dispositions from any Collateral or any other amounts available shall be paid by the Collateral Agent to Senior Lender in respect of the Revolving Senior Advances. Mezz Lender agrees to forebear and not take any action to enforce its rights under (or in connection with) this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Servicing Agreement or otherwise (including, without limitation, any rights arising at law or in equity) until and unless Senior Lender has been paid in full for all Obligations owed to it; provided, however, Mezz Lender may take any action solely for the purpose of preserving its rights in the Collateral and against Borrower such as the giving of notice of an Event of Default. If and to the extent that Mezz Lender received or receives any payment from Borrower, Guarantors, Collateral Agent or otherwise to which it is not entitled under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, because Senior Lender has not been repaid in full with respect to any Advances on account of a particular Portfolio Property), Mezz Lender shall be deemed to hold such amount in trust for Senior Lender and shall promptly turnover such amount to Senior Lender without any need for Senior Lender to make a demand therefor.

3.8. No Other Indebtedness. Borrower shall not incur any Indebtedness, secured or unsecured, direct or indirect, absolute or contingent (including guaranteeing any obligation or assuming liability for the debts of any other Person and Borrower will not hold itself out as being liable for the debts of any other Person) except as expressly permitted hereunder. Except as permitted pursuant to Section 6.2, no Indebtedness other than the Revolving Senior Loan and the Revolving Mezz Loan or any other obligations to any Lender making such Loans may be secured (subordinate or pari passu) by the Collateral or any portion thereof.

4. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

Borrower represents and warrants as follows to Lenders that, as of the Fifth Amendment Effective Date:

4.1. Organization and Qualification. Borrower and each Guarantor is duly existing and in good standing in its jurisdiction of formation and is qualified and licensed to do business and is in good standing in any jurisdiction in which the conduct of its business or its ownership of property requires that it be qualified, except where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change.

4.12. Solvency. The fair salable value (taken on a going concern basis) of Borrower’s and each Guarantor’s respective assets exceeds the fair value of its liabilities; Borrower and each Guarantor is not left with unreasonably small capital after effecting the transactions in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents; and Borrower and each Guarantor is able to pay its debts (including trade debts) as they mature.

4.13. No Debt or Payment Obligations; Separateness. Borrower has not incurred any debt or other payment obligations since its formation. At all times since its formation, Borrower has operated in a manner so as to maintain Borrower’s identity as a separate legal entity and to make it apparent to third Persons that Borrower is an entity with assets and liabilities distinct from those of any of its Affiliates and any other Person, and is not a division of any Affiliate or any other Person.

39


If Borrower shall fail, refuse or neglect to make any payment or perform any act required by the Loan Documents, then while any Event of Default exists, and without notice to or demand upon Borrower and without waiving or releasing any other right, remedy or recourse any or each Lender may have because of such Event of Default, such Lender or Lenders which have outstanding Revolving Loans to Borrower may (but shall not be obligated to) make such payment or perform such act for the account of and at the expense of Borrower, and shall have the right, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to enter upon any Portfolio Property owned by Borrower for such purpose and to take all such action thereon and with respect to such Portfolio Properties as it may deem necessary or appropriate. If any or each Lender shall so elect to pay any sum due with reference to the Portfolio Properties, such Lender or Lenders may do so in reliance on any bill, statement or assessment procured from the appropriate Governmental Authority or other issuer thereof without inquiring into the accuracy or validity thereof. Similarly, in making any payments to protect the security intended to be created by the Loan Documents, no Lender shall be bound to inquire into the validity of any apparent or threatened adverse title, Lien, encumbrance, claim or charge before making an advance for the purpose of preventing or removing the same.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Borrower, for itself and its successors and assigns, waives all rights to a marshalling of the assets of Borrower, and others with interests in Borrower, and of its Portfolio Properties, and agrees not to assert any right under any laws pertaining to the marshalling of assets, homestead exemption, the administration of estates of decedents, or any other matters whatsoever to defeat, reduce or affect the right of Lenders under the Loan Documents to a sale of such Portfolio Properties for the collection of the Obligations without any prior or different resort for collection or of the right of Lenders to the payment of the Obligations out of the net proceeds of such Portfolio Properties in preference to every other claimant whatsoever. Borrower agrees that the actions, sales, proceedings and foreclosure described herein or in any of the other Loan Documents may be commenced in any order determined by each or any Lender with outstanding Revolving Loans to it and Borrower agrees and covenants to cooperate with each such Lender in connection with the foregoing.

Borrower shall pay to each Lender and/or Collateral Agent (acting on behalf of such Lenders) any and all fees, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable and documented out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees and disbursements (including, without limitation, those of Cogent Legal Services LLC), court costs, litigation and other expenses) incurred or paid by any such Lender and/or such Collateral Agent in establishing, maintaining, protecting or enforcing any of such Lender’s or such Collateral Agent’s rights or the Obligations, including, without limitation, any and all such fees, costs and expenses incurred or paid by such Collateral Agent (for the benefit of such Lender(s)) in defending such Collateral Agent’s security interest in, title or right to the Collateral or in collecting or attempting to collect or enforcing or attempting to enforce payment of the Obligations.

8.7. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but all of which shall constitute but one agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy, e-mail, .pdf or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of the actual executed signature page shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

8.8. Complete Agreement. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire agreement and understanding between and among the parties hereto relating to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes all prior proposals, negotiations, agreements and understandings among the parties hereto with respect to such subject matter. Lenders, Collateral Agent and Borrower agree that it is their respective intent that the security interests granted in connection with the Original Loan and Security Agreement, shall remain in full force and effect under this Agreement and such security interests shall secure the obligation incurred hereunder. Lenders, Collateral Agent and Borrower further agrees that it is their respective intent that nothing herein shall constitute a novation or a termination of the obligations under the Original Loan and Security Agreement, other than the release of the Legacy Borrowers (as defined in the Original Loan and Security Agreement), the Secondary Borrower (as defined in the Original Loan and Security Agreement) and the Limited Guarantors (as defined in the Original Loan and Security Agreement) and the termination of the Limited Guaranty (as defined in the Original Loan and Security Agreement) and the confessions of judgment related to the Legacy Borrowers, the Secondary Borrower and the Limited Guarantors as provided in the Side Letter.

8.9. Binding Effect of Agreement; Assignment of Agreement by Lenders. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and assigns of the parties hereto, and shall remain in full force and effect (and each Lender shall be entitled to rely thereon) until terminated as to future transactions by written notice from any party to another party of the termination hereof; provided that any such termination shall not release or affect any Collateral in which Collateral Agent already has a security interest or any Obligations incurred or

 

42


rights accrued hereunder prior to the effective date of such notice (as hereinafter defined) of such termination. The Collateral Agent will not assign its obligations hereunder without the consent of the Lenders. Notwithstanding any such termination, the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, shall have a security interest in all Collateral to secure the payment and performance of the Obligations arising after such termination as a result of commitments or undertakings made or entered into by such Lender prior to such termination. Either Lender may at any time and upon notice to Borrower (and without the consent of Borrower), transfer and assign this Agreement and direct the Collateral Agent to deliver the Collateral to an assignee, who shall thereupon have all of the rights of such Lender; and Collateral Agent shall then be relieved and discharged of any responsibility or liability with respect to this Agreement and the Collateral; provided, that, such assignee shall have executed a joinder agreement hereto in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Agent. Such assignee upon such assignment shall assume all obligations of such Lender hereunder and shall become a Senior Lender or a Mezz Lender, as the case may be. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Borrower may not assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement. Except as expressly provided herein or in the other Loan Documents, nothing, expressed or implied, is intended to confer upon any party, other than the parties hereto, any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. Borrower acknowledges that Senior Lender and Mezz Lender each reserve the right to participate its interest in the Revolving Loans.

8.10. Further Assurances. Borrower shall do, execute, acknowledge and deliver, at Borrower’s sole cost and expense, such further acts, instruments or documentation, including additional title insurance policies or endorsements, and title reinsurance, as either Lender or Collateral Agent may reasonably require from time to time to better assure, transfer and confirm unto such Lender or Collateral Agent the rights now or hereafter intended to be granted to such Lender or Collateral Agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

8.11. Amendments in Writing; Waiver; Integration. No purported amendment or modification of any Loan Document, or waiver, discharge or termination of any obligation under any Loan Document, shall be enforceable or admissible unless, and only to the extent, expressly set forth in a writing signed by the party against which enforcement or admission is sought. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no oral promise or statement, nor any action, inaction, delay, failure to require performance or course of conduct shall operate as, or evidence, an amendment, supplement or waiver or have any other effect on any Loan Document. Any waiver granted shall be limited to the specific circumstance expressly described in it, and shall not apply to any subsequent or other circumstance, whether similar or dissimilar, or give rise to, or evidence, any obligation or commitment to grant any further waiver. The Loan Documents represent the entire agreement about this subject matter and supersede prior negotiations or agreements. All prior agreements, understandings, representations, warranties, and negotiations between the parties about the subject matter of the Loan Documents merge into the Loan Documents.

8.12. Term of Agreement. This Agreement shall continue in full force and effect so long as any Obligations or obligation of Borrower to any Lender shall be outstanding, or Lenders shall have any obligation to extend any financial accommodation hereunder, and is supplementary to each and every other agreement between Borrower and either Lender and shall not be so construed as to limit or otherwise derogate from any of the rights or remedies of any Lender or any of the liabilities, obligations or undertakings of Borrower under any such agreement, nor shall any

 

43


contemporaneous or subsequent agreement between Borrower and either Lender be construed to limit or otherwise derogate from any of the rights or remedies of either Lender or any of the liabilities, obligations or undertakings of Borrower hereunder, unless such other agreement specifically refers to this Agreement and expressly so provides.

8.13. Notices. All notices, consents, requests, approvals, demands, or other communication by any party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document must be in writing and shall be deemed to have been validly served, given, or delivered: (1) upon the earlier of actual receipt and three Business Days after deposit in the U.S. mail, first class, registered or certified mail return receipt requested, with proper postage prepaid; (2) upon transmission, when sent by electronic mail; (3) one Business Day after deposit with a reputable overnight courier with all charges prepaid; or (4) when delivered, if hand-delivered by messenger, all of which shall be addressed to the party to be notified and sent to the address or email address indicated below.

Section 2.08 Rescission or Return of Payment.

Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all computations of interest, fees and other Obligations shall be made on the basis of a year of three-hundred sixty (360) days for the actual number of days elapsed in computing interest on any Advance, the date of the making of the Advance shall be included and the date of payment shall be excluded, provided that if an Advance is repaid on the same day on which it is made, one (1) day’s interest shall be paid on such Advance.

Each Borrower hereby agrees that, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, at the request of the Lender, it shall execute all documents and agreements which are necessary or appropriate to have the Collateral to be assigned to the Lender or its designee. For purposes of taking the actions described in clauses (a) through (k) of this Section 7.03, each Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints the Lender as its attorney in fact (which appointment being coupled with an interest and is irrevocable while any of the Obligations remain unpaid), with power of substitution, in the name of the Lender or in the name of such Borrower or otherwise, for the use and benefit of the Lender, but at the cost and expense of such Borrower and, except as expressly required by Applicable Law, without notice to such Borrower.

The Lender agrees that unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Borrower may, to the extent such Borrower has such right as a holder of the Pledged Membership Interests, vote and give consents, ratifications and waivers with respect thereto, except to the extent that, any such vote, consent, ratification or waiver could detract from the value thereof as Collateral or which could be inconsistent with or result in any violation of any provision of this Agreement, and from time to time, upon request from such Borrower, the Lender shall deliver to such Borrower suitable proxies so that such Borrower may cast such votes, consents, ratifications and waivers.

The Lender agrees that such Borrower may, unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, receive and retain all cash dividends and other distributions with respect to the Pledged Membership Interests.

Section 7.04 Remedies Cumulative. Each right, power, and remedy of the Lender, as provided for in this Agreement or in the other Facility Documents or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise shall be cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to every other right, power, or remedy provided for in this Agreement or in the other Facility Documents or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise, and the exercise or beginning of the exercise by the Lender of any one or more of such rights, powers, or remedies shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise by such Persons of any or all such other rights, powers, or remedies.

 

39


Section 7.05 Protection of Collateral. Upon the Lender’s reasonable request, the Borrowers shall from time to time execute and deliver all such supplements and amendments hereto and file or authorize the filing of all such UCC 1 financing statements and continuation statements and the equivalent thereof in any applicable foreign jurisdiction, if applicable, instruments of further assurance and other instruments, and shall take such other action as may be necessary or advisable to secure the rights and remedies of the Lender hereunder (including, without limitation, following the Senior Facility Release Date, with respect to all Collateral over which control may be obtained within the meaning of Section 8-106 and 9-104 of the UCC, the Borrowers take all actions as may be requested from time to time by the Lender so that control of such Collateral is obtained and at all times held by the Lender) and to:

(a) grant security more effectively on all or any portion of the Collateral;

(b) maintain, preserve and perfect any grant of security made or to be made by this Agreement including the second priority nature of the Lien granted hereunder while at all times prior to the Senior Facility Release Date and first priority security interests thereafter or carry out more effectively the purposes hereof;

(c) perfect, publish notice of or protect the validity of any grant made or to be made by this Agreement (including any and all actions necessary as a result of changes in Law);

(d) enforce any of the Collateral or other instruments or property included in the Collateral;

(e) preserve and defend title to the Collateral and the rights therein of the Lender in the Collateral against the claims of all third parties other than the Senior Lender; and

(f) pay or cause to be paid any and all taxes levied or assessed upon all or any part of the Collateral.

Each Borrower hereby authorizes the Lender to prepare and file financing statements with respect to the security interests granted hereby, continuation statements with respect thereto, and any amendments to such financing statements that may be necessary to continue to perfect the Lender’s interest in the Collateral. Each Borrower agrees that such Borrower shall not file a termination statement with respect to any financing statement filed by the Lender in connection with any security interest granted under this Agreement if the Lender reasonably objects to the filing of such termination statement, due to the continuing existence of any outstanding Obligations. Such financing statements may describe the Collateral in the same manner as described herein or may contain an indication or description of Collateral that describes such property in any other manner as the Lender may determine in its sole discretion is necessary, advisable or prudent to ensure the perfection of the security interest in the Collateral granted herein, including, without limitation, describing such property as “all assets, whether now owned or hereafter acquired” or “all personal property, whether now owned or hereafter acquired”; provided that in each case at all times prior to the Senior Facility Release Date, such description shall include language that explicitly excludes interests in Properties, other than Permitted Second Liens, as such term is defined in the Senior Loan Agreement.

ARTICLE VIII

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 8.01 No Waiver; Modifications in Writing. No failure or delay on the part of the Lender exercising any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. Any waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Facility Document, and any consent to any departure by any party to this Agreement or any other Facility Document from the terms of any provision of this Agreement or such other Facility Document, shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. No notice to or demand on the Borrowers in any case shall entitle the Borrowers to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. No amendment, modification, supplement or waiver of this Agreement shall be effective unless signed by the Borrowers and the Lender; provided, however, any such amendment executed prior to the Senior Facility Release Date shall require Borrowers to obtain the consent of the Senior Lender prior to any such amendment, which consent shall be deemed given so long as it does not have a material effect on (i) any of the collateral of the Senior Lender, (ii) any rights of the Senior Lender or obligations of Borrowers or (iii) any administrative, reporting or accounting requirements, in each case, under the Senior Facility Documents.

Section 8.02 Notices, Etc. Except where telephonic instructions are authorized herein to be given, all notices, demands, instructions and other communications required or permitted to be given to or made upon any party hereto shall be in writing and shall be personally delivered or sent by registered, certified or express mail, postage prepaid, or by prepaid courier service, or by facsimile transmission or electronic mail with confirmation of receipt (if the recipient has provided a fax or an email address in Schedule 1), and shall be deemed to be given for purposes of this Agreement on the day that such writing is received by the intended recipient thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Section 8.02. Unless otherwise specified in a notice sent or delivered in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Section 8.02, notices, demands, instructions and other communications in writing shall be given to or made upon the respective parties hereto at their respective addresses (or to their respective facsimile numbers or email addresses) indicated in Schedule 1, and, in the case of telephonic instructions or notices, by calling the telephone number or numbers indicated for such party in Schedule 1.

Section 8.03 Taxes.

(a) Any and all payments by the Borrowers to or for the account of the Lender under any Facility Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for any and all present or future Taxes with respect thereto, unless required by Applicable Law. If any Applicable Law (as determined in the good faith discretion of the Borrowers) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by the Borrowers, then the Borrowers shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance in all material respects with Applicable Law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the Borrowers shall be increased as may be necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 8.03) the applicable recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no deductions or withholding of Indemnified Taxes been made.

 

41


(b) The Borrowers agree to timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law, or at the option of the Lender timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

(c) The Borrowers agree to indemnify the Lender, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for (i) the full amount of Indemnified Taxes (including any Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on amounts payable under this Section 8.03) payable or paid by the Lender or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to the Lender and (ii) any reasonable expenses arising from Indemnified Taxes or with respect thereto, in each case 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 the Borrowers by the Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) As soon as practicable after the date of any payment of Taxes by the Borrowers to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 8.03, the Borrowers will furnish to the Lender the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by the relevant Governmental Authority evidencing payment thereof (or other evidence of payment as may be reasonably satisfactory to the Lender).

(e) If any party 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 pursuant to this Section 8.03 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 8.03), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out of pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this clause (e) (plus any penalties, interest, or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this clause (e), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this clause (e) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party 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 paragraph shall entitle the Borrowers to request certification from an indemnified party as to whether it has received or expects to receive any such refund but shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

 

42


(ii) (i) If, at any time, the Lender is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Facility Document, it shall deliver to the Borrowers, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrowers, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrowers as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, the Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrowers, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by Applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrowers as will enable the Borrowers to determine whether or not the 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 Sections 14.03(g)(ii), (iii), (v) and (vi) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject the Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of the Lender.

(iii) Without limiting the generality of Section 8.03(f)(i), to the extent the Lender is a U.S. Person, the Lender shall, on or prior to the date on which it becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrowers), deliver to the Borrowers (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient), executed originals of U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or any successor form, certifying that the Lender is entitled to an exemption from U.S. backup withholding tax.

(iv) Without limiting the generality of Section 8.03(f)(i), to the extent the Lender is not a U.S. Person (a “Non-U.S. Lender”), it shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrowers (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient), on or prior to the date on which such Non-U.S. Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time-to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrowers), whichever of the following is applicable:

(A) in the case of a Non-U.S. 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 Facility Document, executed originals of U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN-E 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 Facility Document, U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN-E 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;

(B) executed originals of U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI;

(C) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate reasonably satisfactory to the Borrowers to the effect that such Non-U.S. Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of any Borrower within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed originals of U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN-E; or

 

43


(D) to the extent a Non-U.S. Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate reasonably satisfactory to the Borrowers, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Non-U.S. Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Non-U.S. Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Non-U.S. Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate reasonably satisfactory to the Borrowers, together with executed originals of U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN-E, on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner.

(v) Each Non-U.S. Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrowers (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Non-U.S. Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrowers), executed originals of any other form prescribed by Applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by Applicable Law to permit the Borrowers to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.

(vi) If a payment made to the Lender under any Facility Document would be subject to FATCA Withholding Tax if the 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), the Lender shall deliver to the Borrowers at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrowers such documentation prescribed by Applicable Law and such documentation as is reasonably requested by the Borrowers as may be necessary for the Borrowers to comply with their obligations thereunder and to determine that the Lender has complied with its obligations thereunder or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 8.03(f)(v), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

(vii) The Lender agrees that, from time to time after the Closing Date, it shall deliver the forms described above, as applicable, as promptly as practicable after (a) receipt of a reasonable written request therefor from the Borrowers or (b) when a lapse in time or change in circumstance renders a previously provided form or certificate obsolete or inaccurate. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 8.03, the Lender shall not be required to deliver any form after the Closing Date pursuant to this Section 8.03(f) that it is not legally able to deliver.

(f) If the Lender requires the Borrowers to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amount to the Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of the Lender pursuant to this Section 8.03. then the Lender shall (at the request of the Borrowers) 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 the Lender determines, in its discretion that such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to this Section 8.03 in the future and (ii) would not subject the Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to the Lender. The Borrowers hereby agree to pay all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

 

44


(g) Nothing in this Section 8.03 shall be construed to require the Lender to make available its Tax returns (or, subject to Section 8.03(f), any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrowers or any other Person.

(h) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Borrowers hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Borrowers and the Lender contained in this Section 8.03 shall survive any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of the Lender, and the termination of this Agreement.

(i) For purposes of this Section, the term “Applicable Law” includes FATCA.

Section 8.04 Costs and Expenses; Indemnification.

(a) Each Borrower agrees, on a joint and several basis, to promptly pay on demand all reasonable and documented out of pocket costs and expenses of the Lender in connection with the preparation, review, negotiation, reproduction, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Facility Documents, including the reasonable and documented fees and disbursements of counsel for the Lender (including, without limitation, those of Cogent Legal Services LLC), reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses of creating, perfecting, releasing or enforcing the Lender’s security interests in the Collateral, including filing and recording fees, expenses, search fees, UCC filing fees and the equivalent thereof in any foreign jurisdiction, if applicable, and all other related fees and expenses in connection therewith; and in connection with the administration and any modification or amendment of this Agreement or any other Facility Document and advising the Lender as to their respective rights, remedies and responsibilities. Each Borrower agrees, on a joint and several basis, to promptly pay on demand all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Lender in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement or any other Facility Document, including all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Lender in connection with the preservation, collection, foreclosure or enforcement of the Collateral subject to the Facility Documents or any interest, right, power or remedy of the Lender or in connection with the collection or enforcement of any of the Obligations or the proof, protection, administration or resolution of any claim based upon the Obligations in any insolvency proceeding, including all reasonable and documented out of pocket fees and disbursements of attorneys, accountants, auditors, consultants, appraisers and other professionals engaged by the Lender. Without prejudice to its rights hereunder, the expenses and the compensation for the services of the Lender are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any applicable bankruptcy law. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 8.04(a) shall not apply to Taxes, which shall be covered by Section 8.03.

(b) Each Borrower agrees, on a joint and several basis, to indemnify and hold harmless the Lender, and each of its Affiliates and the respective officers, directors, employees, agents, managers of, and any Person controlling any of, the foregoing (each, an “Indemnified Party”) from and against any and all Liabilities that may be incurred by or asserted or awarded

 

45


against any Indemnified Party, in each case arising out of or in connection with or by reason of the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance, administration of or otherwise arising out of or incurred in connection with this Agreement, any other Facility Document or any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby (and regardless of whether or not any such transactions are consummated), including any such Liability that is incurred or arises out of or in connection with, or by reason of any one or more of the following: (i) in connection with any enforcement (including any action, claim or suit brought) by the Indemnified Party of any indemnification or other obligation of any Borrower, any other party to the Facility Documents or any other Person and a defense of any claim, investigation, litigation or proceeding arising out of, related to or in connection with this Agreement, any other Facility Document or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby; (ii) any breach of any covenant by any Borrower contained in any Facility Document; (iii) any representation or warranty made or deemed made by any Borrower contained in any Facility Document or in any certificate, statement or report delivered in connection therewith is false or incorrect; (iv) any failure by any Borrower to comply with any Applicable Law or Contractual Obligation binding upon it; (v) any failure to vest, or delay in vesting, in the Lender a valid security interest in all of the Collateral, free and clear of all Liens (other than Permitted Liens); (vi) any action or omission, not expressly authorized by the Facility Documents, by any Borrower or any Affiliate of any Borrower which has the effect of impairing the validity or enforceability of the Collateral or the rights of the Lender with respect thereto; (vii) the failure to file, or any delay in filing, financing statements, continuation statements or the equivalent thereof in any foreign jurisdiction or other similar instruments or documents under the UCC of any applicable jurisdiction or other Applicable Law with respect to any Collateral, whether at the time of any Advance or at any subsequent time; and (viii) any Default or Event of Default; provided, that no Indemnified Party shall be entitled to the payment of any such Liabilities resulting from its or its affiliates’ gross negligence, or willful misconduct.

Section 8.05 Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which counterparts, when so executed and delivered, shall be deemed to be an original and all of which counterparts, taken together, shall constitute but one and the same Agreement. The parties agree that this Agreement, the Facility Documents, any other documents to be delivered pursuant to this Agreement, the Facility Documents and any notices hereunder or thereunder may be transmitted between them by e-mail and/or by facsimile. The parties intend that with respect to this Agreement, the Facility Documents, any amendments hereto or thereto, any subsequent certifications and any other documentation delivered by a Borrower in connection with this Agreement and the Facility Documents, electronically imaged signatures such as .pdf files and signatures executed using third party electronic signature capture service providers, which comply with the Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act or any other similar state law based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, shall constitute original signatures and are binding on all parties. The original documents shall be promptly delivered, if requested.

 

46


Section 8.06 Assignability.

(a) The Lender may assign to an assignee all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its outstanding Advances or interests therein owned by it, together with ratable portions of its Commitment and Uncommitted Amount) to a Permitted Assignee. The parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Borrowers an Assignment and Acceptance and the applicable tax forms required by Section 8.03(f). The Lender, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of Borrowers, shall maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Lender assignee, and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Lender assignee’s interest in the rights and obligations under this Agreement and related Facility Documents (the “Register”). No assignment shall be effective unless recorded in the Register. Subject to notification to the Borrowers of an assignment and compliance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, the assignee shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned, have the rights and obligations of the existing Lender under this Agreement, and the existing Lender shall, to the extent of the interest assigned, be released from its obligations under this Agreement. The Borrowers hereby agree to execute any amendment and/or any other document that may be necessary to effectuate such an assignment, including an amendment to this Agreement to provide for multiple lenders and an administrative agent to act on behalf of such lenders. Any assignment or transfer by the Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 8.06(a) shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by the Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with 8.06(c).

(b) The Borrowers may not assign their rights or obligations hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of the Lender.

(c) (i) The Lender may, without the consent of the Borrowers, sell participations to Participants that are Permitted Assignees in all or a portion of the Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, provided that (A) the Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) the Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (C) the Borrowers shall continue to deal solely and directly with the Lender in connection with the Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, and (D) each Participant shall have agreed to be bound by this Section 8.06(c), Section 8.06(e) and Section 8.16. Any agreement pursuant to which the Lender sells such a participation shall provide that the 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 may provide that the Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any Fundamental Amendment that affects such Participant. Section 8.03 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 8.03(f) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 8.03(f) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) shall apply to each Participant as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to clause (a) of this Section 8.06; provided that no Participant shall be entitled to any amount under Section 8.03 which is greater than the amount the related Lender would have been entitled to under any such Sections or provisions if the applicable participation had not occurred.

(i) In the event that the Lender sells participations in any portion of its rights and obligations hereunder, the Lender, as nonfiduciary agent for the Borrowers, shall maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of all participants in the Advances held by it and the principal amount (and stated interest thereon) of the portion of the Advance and any other obligations under the Facility Documents which is the subject of the participation (the “Participant Register”). An Advance may be participated in whole or in part only by

 

47


registration of such participation on the Participant Register. Any participation of such Advance may be effected only by the registration of such participation on the Participant Register. The Participant Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers to the extent necessary for the Borrowers to establish that such commitment, loan or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in a Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in such Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.

(d) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, (i) the Lender may at any time create a security interest in, or pledge, all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement in favor of any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with Regulation A of the Federal Reserve Bank or U.S. Treasury Regulation 31 CFR §203.24, and such Federal Reserve Bank may enforce such pledge or security interest in any manner permitted under Applicable Laws and this Section 8.06 shall not apply to any such pledge or grant of a security interest. No creation or grant of a security interest, pledge or collateral assignment pursuant to the preceding sentence shall release the Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any pledgee or assignee for the Lender as a party hereto.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein or in any other Facility Document, the Lender, each Permitted Assignee which becomes a Lender and each Participant, must at all times be a “qualified purchaser” as defined in the Investment Company Act (a “Qualified Purchaser”) and a “qualified institutional buyer” as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act (a “QIB”). The Lender and each Permitted Assignee which becomes a Lender represents to the Borrower, (i) on the date that it becomes a party to this Agreement (whether by being a signatory hereto or by entering into an Assignment and Acceptance) and (ii) on each date on which it makes an Advance hereunder, that it is a Qualified Purchaser and a QIB. The Lender and each Permitted Assignee which becomes a Lender further agree that they shall not assign, or grant any participations in, any of their respective Advances, Commitment or Uncommitted Amount to any Person unless such Person is a Qualified Purchaser and a QIB.

Section 8.07 Governing Law. This agreement and the rights and obligations of the parties under this Agreement and any claim, controversy, dispute or cause of action (whether in contract or tort or otherwise) based upon, arising out of or relating to this agreement or any other Facility Document (except, as to any other Facility Document, as expressly set forth therein) and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of the State of New York.

Section 8.08 Severability of Provisions. Any provision of this Agreement or any other Facility Document which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

 

48


Section 8.09 Confidentiality. The Lender agrees to keep confidential all non-public information provided to it by the Borrowers with respect to the Borrowers, their Affiliates, the Collateral or any other information furnished to the Lender pursuant to this Agreement or any other Facility Document (collectively, the “Borrower Information”), provided that nothing herein shall prevent the Lender from disclosing any Borrower Information (a) in connection with this Agreement and the other Facility Documents and not for any other purpose, (x) to any other Person who becomes a party hereto, or (y) any of its Affiliates, employees, directors, agents, attorneys, accountants and other professional advisors (collectively, the “Lender Representatives”), it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Borrower Information and instructed to keep such Borrower Information confidential, (b) subject to an agreement to comply with the provisions of this Section (or other provisions at least as restrictive as this Section), (i) to use the Borrower Information only in connection with this Agreement and the other Facility Documents and not for any other purpose, to any actual or bona fide prospective permitted assignees and Participants in the Lender’s interests under or in connection with this Agreement and (ii) as reasonably required by any direct or indirect contractual counterparties or professional advisors thereto, to any swap or derivative transaction relating to any Borrower and its obligations, (c) to the extent required or requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over the Lender or any of its Affiliates (with prior notice to the Borrowers to the extent lawful), (d) in response to any order of any court or other Governmental Authority or as may otherwise be required to be disclosed pursuant to any Applicable Law, (e) that is a matter of general public knowledge or that has heretofore been made available to the public by any Person other than the Lender or any Lender Representative, or (f) in connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder or under any other Facility Document. In addition, the Lender may disclose the existence of this Agreement and information about this Agreement to market data collectors, similar service providers to the lending industry and service providers to the Lender in connection with the administration and management of this Agreement and the other Facility Documents.

Section 8.10 Merger.
