NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND PRINCIPLES OF INTERIM STATEMENTS

Description of Business

The terms “us,” “we,” “our,” and “the Company” as used in this report refer to Consolidated-Tomoka Land Co. (“CTLC”) together with our consolidated subsidiaries.

We are a diversified real estate operating company. We own and manage commercial real estate properties in seven states in the U.S., and two self-developed properties located in Florida. As of March 31, 2013, we own 36 single-tenant income producing properties, in seven states, with more than 790,000 square feet of gross leasable space. We also own and manage a land portfolio of over 10,000 acres in Florida, a majority of which is located within and forms a substantial portion of the western boundary of the City of Daytona Beach. Our land is well located along both sides of Interstate 95 and near central Florida’s Interstate 4 corridor. We also have a golf course operation, which consists of the LPGA International golf club, lease property for billboards, have agricultural operations, which are managed by a third party and consist of leasing land for hay production, timber harvesting, and hunting leases, and own and manage subsurface oil, gas, and mineral interests. The results of our agricultural and subsurface leasing operations are included in Other Income and Real Estate Operations on our consolidated statement of operations, respectively.

More than 50% of the Company’s income property portfolio and all of the land, golf operations, agriculture operations, and subsurface interests are in the State of Florida.

Interim Financial Information

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. These unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and notes required by accounting principles in the United States of America for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012, which provides a more complete understanding of the Company’s accounting policies, financial position, operating results, business properties and other matters. The unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company and the results of operations for the interim periods.

Certain items in the prior year’s consolidated statement of operations have been reclassified to conform to the presentation of statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2013. Specifically, the amounts of depreciation and amortization expense, and interest expense have been segregated into separate line items whereas previously these amounts were included in direct cost of revenues and general and administrative expense, respectively. These reclassifications had no effect on the current year and prior year presentation of income (loss) from continuing operations before taxes.

The results of operations for the first three months ended March 31, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2013.

Table of Contents

NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND PRINCIPLES OF INTERIM STATEMENTS (continued)

 

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. Any real estate entities or properties included in the consolidated financial statements have been consolidated only for the periods that such entities or properties were owned or under control by us. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.

Use of Estimates in Preparation of Financial Statements

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Because of the adverse market conditions that currently exist in the Florida and national real estate markets, and financial and credit markets, it is possible that the estimates and assumptions, most notably with the Company’s investment in income properties and its pension liability, could change materially during the time span associated with the continued weakened state of the real estate and financial markets.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The largest carrying amounts of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, including cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, and accounts payable at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, approximate fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments. The carrying amount of the Company’s notes payable approximates fair value at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, since the notes are at floating rates or fixed rates, which approximate current market rates for notes with similar risks and maturities.

Intangible Assets

As of March 31, 2013, the in-place lease value totaled $6,369,095, net of accumulated amortization of $2,934,139. At December 31, 2012 the in-place lease value totaled $4,527,426, net of accumulated amortization of $3,443,102. Amortization expense for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 was $167,509 and $97,407, respectively.

NOTE 2. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

In May 2012, we sold our income property in Asheville, North Carolina, which was leased to Northern Tool and Equipment, for $3.925 million. We also sold our income property in Powder Springs, Georgia, which was leased to Walgreen Co., for $4.09 million. A gain of $78,455 was recognized on the sale of the two properties in the quarter ended June 30, 2012. Discontinued operations for the three months ended March 31, 2012, includes the operating results of these two income properties that were sold in the quarter ended June 30, 2012.

In the fourth quarter of 2012, one income property, the PNC Bank in Alpharetta, Georgia, was classified as held for sale as we had commenced an active program to market and sell the property and determined there was a high probability that a sales transaction would occur within one year. A property classified as held for sale is carried at the lower of carrying cost or estimated fair value, less estimated cost to sell, and is reported as discontinued operations with its respective results of operations classified as income from discontinued operations on our consolidated statements of operations. In accordance with FAS ASC 360, depreciation was discontinued once the property was classified as held for sale.

On February 14, 2013, the Company sold its interest in the 4,128 square-foot building under lease to PNC Bank, located in Alpharetta, Georgia. The sales price on this transaction amounted to $3,550,000. The property was presented as assets held for sale on the consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2012; and as of December 31, 2012, the value was written down to reflect the contractual sales price resulting in a loss of $426,794. The property’s operating results were included in discontinued operations for each of the three month periods ended March 31, 2013 and 2012.

On February 21, 2013, the Company sold its interest in the 13,824 square-foot building under lease to CVS, located in Clermont, Florida. The sales price on this transaction amounted to $4,050,000. As of December 31, 2012, no contract was in place, therefore, this property was not presented as assets held for sale on the balance sheet at December 31, 2012. Upon the sale in February 2013, the property’s operating results were included in discontinued operations for each of the three month periods ended March 31, 2013 and 2012.

Following is a summary of income from discontinued operations for the periods:

NOTE 3. COMMON STOCK AND EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per common share is based on the assumption of the conversion of stock options at the beginning of each period using the treasury stock method at average cost for the periods.

NOTE 4. PENSION PLAN

The Company maintains a Defined Benefit Pension Plan (the “Pension Plan”) for all employees who have attained the age of 21 and completed one year of service. The pension benefits are based primarily on years of service and the average compensation for the five highest consecutive years during the final ten years of employment. The benefit formula generally provides for a life annuity benefit.

Effective December 31, 2011, the Company amended its Pension Plan to freeze participants’ benefits with no future accruals after that date. Any current or future employee who was not a participant of the Pension Plan on December 31, 2011 will not be eligible to enter the Pension Plan. Although the Pension Plan will remain active with no new entrants and no future accruals, the Company’s contribution level is expected to be reduced over time. In January 2013, the Company made a cash contribution to the Pension Plan of $84,600, related to the 2012 Pension Plan year. There are no quarterly contribution requirements for 2013.

NOTE 5. NOTES PAYABLE AND LINE OF CREDIT

On February 27, 2012, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Bank of Montreal (“BMO”) as Administrative Agent, Letter of Credit Issuer, and a Lender. The Agreement consisted of a $46.0 million revolving credit facility with a maturity date of February 27, 2015 (the “Credit Facility”). The indebtedness outstanding under the Agreement accrued interest, prior to the amendments of the Agreement, at a rate ranging from the 30-day London Interbank Offer Rate (“LIBOR”) plus 175 basis points to LIBOR plus 250 basis points based on the total balance outstanding under the Credit Facility as a percentage of total asset value of the Company. The Credit Facility is unsecured and is guaranteed by certain subsidiaries of the Company.

The Credit Facility replaced the $25.0 million revolving credit facility with SunTrust Bank, which had a maturity date of June 27, 2014. Approximately $9.7 million of the initial disbursement of the Credit Facility was used to pay off the outstanding balance of the existing credit facility with SunTrust Bank and approximately $5.6 million was used to pay off the term loan with SunTrust Bank, which had a maturity date of July 1, 2012. The indebtedness under the prior SunTrust revolving credit facility and term loan were secured by certain assets of the Company. The Company wrote off $245,726 of deferred loan costs in the first quarter of 2012 as a result of this early extinguishment of debt.

The Agreement contains restrictive covenants, customary for this type of transaction, including, but not limited to, limitations on the Company’s ability to: (a) incur indebtedness; (b) make certain investments; (c) incur certain liens; (d) engage in certain affiliate transactions; and (e) engage in certain major transactions such as mergers. In addition, the Company is subject to various financial maintenance covenants, including, but not limited to, a maximum indebtedness ratio, a maximum secured indebtedness ratio, and a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio. The Agreement also contains affirmative covenants and events of default, including, but not limited to, a cross default to the Company’s other indebtedness and the occurrence of a change of control. The Company’s failure to comply with these covenants or the occurrence of an event of default could result in acceleration of the Company’s debt and other financial obligations under the Agreement.

In September 2012, the Company entered into the First Amendment to the Credit Agreement (“Amendment”) and added a second participating lender to the Agreement. This Amendment, under the accordion feature, expanded the credit facility to $62.0 million. The Amendment also modified some of the restrictive covenants contained in the original Agreement. These changes to the restrictive covenants are not considered material in nature. On February 14, 2013, the Company added a third participant lender to the Agreement and pursuant to the accordion feature, the Credit Facility was expanded to $66.0 million.

On March 29, 2013, the Company entered into the second amendment to the Credit Agreement (“Second Amendment”). The Second Amendment, expands the accordion feature allowing the Company to increase the facility up to $125 million and reduces the interest rate by 25 basis points, which now ranges from LIBOR plus 150 basis points up to LIBOR plus 225 basis points, based on the Company’s debt level. The Second Amendment also extends the maturity date to March 31, 2016 from February 27, 2015, and reduces the limitations on the Company’s ability to make certain investments.

On February 22, 2013, the Company closed on a $7.3 million loan with UBS Real Estate Securities Inc., secured by its interest in the two-building office complex leased to Hilton Resorts Corporation which was acquired on January 31, 2013. The new mortgage loan matures in February 2018, carries a fixed rate of interest of 3.655% per annum, and requires payments of interest only prior to maturity. The proceeds from the borrowing were used to pay-down a portion of the Company’s outstanding balance on its revolving credit facility.

On March 8, 2013, the Company closed on a $23.1 million loan with Bank of America, N.A., secured by its interest in fourteen income properties. The new mortgage loan matures in April 2023, carries a fixed rate of 3.67% per annum, and requires payments of interest only prior to maturity. The net proceeds from the borrowing were used to pay-down a portion of the Company’s outstanding balance on its revolving credit facility.

NOTE 6. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

EQUITY-CLASSIFIED STOCK COMPENSATION

Market Condition Restricted Shares

Under the 2010 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2010 Plan”), the Company granted to certain employees non-vested restricted stock which vest upon the achievement of certain market conditions, including the Company’s total shareholder return as compared to the total shareholder return of a certain peer group during a five-year performance period.

The Company used a Monte Carlo simulation pricing model to determine the fair value of its market condition based awards. The determination of the fair value of market condition-based awards is affected by the stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of other variables. These variables include expected stock price volatility over the requisite performance term of awards, the relative performance of the Company’s stock price, and shareholder returns to those companies in its peer group, annual dividends, and a risk-free interest rate assumption. Compensation cost is recognized regardless of the achievement of the market conditions, provided the requisite service period is met.

A summary of activity during the three months ended March 31, 2013, is presented below:

Non-Qualified Stock Option Awards

Pursuant to the Non-Qualified Stock Option Award Agreements between the Company and Mr. Albright and Mr. Patten, Mr. Albright and Mr. Patten were granted options to purchase 50,000 and 10,000 shares of Company common stock, respectively, under the 2010 Plan with an exercise price per share equal to the fair market value on their respective grant dates of August 1, 2011 and April 16, 2012. One-third of the options will vest on each of the first, second, and third anniversaries of their respective grant dates, provided they are an employee of the Company on those dates. In addition, any unvested portion of the options will vest upon a change in control. The options expire on the earliest of: (a) the tenth anniversary of the grant date; (b) twelve months after the employee’s death or termination for disability; or (c) thirty days after the termination of employment for any reason other than death or disability.

On January 23, 2013 the Company granted options to purchase 51,000 shares of the Company’s common stock under the 2010 Plan to certain employees of the Company, including 10,000 shares to Mr. Patten, with an exercise price of $34.95 per share, which was equal to the fair market value at the date of grant. One-third of these options will vest on each of the first, second, and third anniversaries of the grant date, provided the recipient is an employee of the Company on those dates. Any unvested portion of the options will vest upon a change in control. The options expire on the earliest of: (a) the fifth anniversary of the grant date; (b) twelve months after the employee’s death or termination for disability; or (c) thirty days after the termination of employment for any reason other than death or disability.

As of March 31, 2013, there was $580,744 of unrecognized compensation related to non-qualified, non-vested stock option awards, which will be recognized over a period of 2.2 years.

Market Condition Inducement Grant of Restricted Shares

“Inducement” grants of 96,000 and 17,000 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock were awarded to Mr. Albright and Mr. Patten on August 1, 2011 and April 16, 2012, respectively. Mr. Albright’s restricted shares were granted outside of the 2010 Plan while Mr. Patten’s restricted shares were awarded under the 2010 Plan. The Company filed a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form S-8 to register the resale of Mr. Albright’s restricted stock award. The restricted shares will vest in six increments based upon the price per share of the Company’s common stock during the term of their employment (or within sixty days after termination of employment by the Company without cause), meeting or exceeding the target trailing sixty-day average closing prices ranging from $36.00 per share for the first increment to $65.00 per share for the final increment. If any increment of the restricted shares fails to satisfy the applicable stock price condition prior to six years from the grant date, that increment of the restricted shares will be forfeited.

During the three months ended March 31, 2013, the closing price per share of the Company’s common stock on a sixty-day trading average reached $36.00, and as a result, 16,000 shares and 2,500 shares vested for Mr. Albright and Mr. Patten, respectively.

NOTE 6. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION (continued)

 

LIABILITY-CLASSIFIED STOCK COMPENSATION

The Company previously had a stock option plan (the “2001 Plan”) pursuant to which 500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock could be issued. The 2001 Plan expired in 2010, and no new stock options may be issued under the 2001 Plan. Under the 2001 Plan, both stock options and stock appreciation rights were issued in prior years and such issuances were deemed to be liability-classified awards under the Share-Based Payment Topic of FASB ASC.

In connection with the grant of non-qualified stock options, a stock appreciation right for each share covered by the option was also granted. The stock appreciation right entitles the optionee to receive a supplemental payment, which may be paid in whole or in part in cash or in shares of common stock, equal to a portion of the spread between the exercise price and the fair market value of the underlying shares at the time of exercise. The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the three months ended March 31, 2013 was $28,544.

The total intrinsic value of stock appreciation rights exercised during the three months ended March 31, 2013 was $15,370.

The fair value of each share option and stock appreciation right is estimated on the measurement date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model based on assumptions noted in the following table. Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company and other factors. The Company has elected to use the simplified method of estimating the expected term of the options and stock appreciation rights. Due to the small number of employees included in the 2001 Plan, the Company uses the specific identification method to estimate forfeitures and includes all participants in one group. The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual term of the share option is based on the U.S. Treasury rates in effect at the time of measurement. The Company issues new, previously unissued, shares as options are exercised.

In July 2012, the Company entered into an agreement with the City of Daytona Beach, Florida (the “City”) to, among other things, amend the lease payments under its golf course lease (the “Lease Amendment”) whereby the base rent payment, which was scheduled to increase from $250,000 to $500,000 as of September 1, 2012, for the remainder of the lease term and any extensions would remain at $250,000 subject to an annual rate increase of 1.75% beginning September 1, 2013. Under the Lease Amendment, the Company agreed to invest $200,000 prior to September 1, 2015 for certain improvements to the facilities. In addition, pursuant to the Lease Amendment, beginning September 1, 2012, and continuing throughout the initial lease term and any extension option, the Company will pay additional rent to the City equal to 5.0% of gross revenues (as defined in the Lease Amendment) exceeding $5,500,000 and 7.0% of gross revenues (as defined in the Lease Amendment) exceeding $6,500,000. Since the inception of the lease, the Company has been recognizing the rent expense on a straight-line basis resulting in an estimated accrual for deferred rent. Upon the effective date of the amendment to the lease, the Company’s straight-line rent was revised to reflect the lower rent levels through expiration of the lease. As a result, approximately $3.0 million of the rent previously deferred will not be due to the landlord, and will be recognized into income over the remaining lease term, which expires in 2022.

In connection with the acquisition of the two properties leased to Hilton Resorts Corporation on January 31, 2013, the Company was credited $773,000 at closing for certain required tenant improvements. The accrued liability will be relieved upon satisfactory completion of the improvements which were in progress as of March 31, 2013. In connection with the closing of the UBS Note Payable described in Note 5, loan proceeds sufficient to fund the improvements were reserved and are included in restricted cash as of March 31, 2013.

NOTE 8. INCOME TAXES

The effective income tax rate for the three month periods ended March 31, 2013, and 2012, including income taxes attributable to the discontinued operations, was 37.6% and 38.3%, respectively. The provision for income taxes reflects the Company’s estimate of the effective rate expected to be applicable for the full fiscal year, adjusted for any discrete events, which are reported in the period that they occur. The net deferred income tax liability as of March 31, 2013 was impacted primarily by the recognition of approximately $442,653 of previously unrecognized tax benefits. The Company and its subsidiaries file consolidated income tax returns in the United States Federal jurisdiction and in several states. The Internal Revenue Service has audited the Company’s consolidated federal tax returns through the year 2006, with all proposed adjustments settled.

NOTE 9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

From time to time, the Company may be a party to certain legal proceedings, incidental to the normal course of its business. While the outcome of the legal proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company does not expect that these proceedings will have a material effect upon our financial condition or results of operations.

In September 2010, St. Johns River Water Management District (the “District”) served the Company with an administrative complaint filed with the Florida Division of Administrative Hearings in connection with certain Company agricultural operations. In August 2012 the Company submitted a proposed settlement offer to the District, offering certain undeveloped acreage owned by the Company. The Company accrued a reserve equal to $611,691 in the quarter ended September 30, 2012, reflecting the Company’s carrying value of the acreage offered to settle the matter. In December 2012, the Company and the District executed a settlement agreement (“SJRWMD Agreement”) in which the Company agreed to submit an after-the-fact permit application and increased the undeveloped acreage offered for mitigation in connection with the permit. The Company adjusted the reserve to a total of $723,058 to reflect the increased acreage offered in the SJRWMD Agreement. The SJRWMD Agreement was contingent upon the Company and the District reaching agreement on a management fee and issuance of the permit. The Company submitted its permit application on January 28, 2013. In March 2013 the Company conveyed the acreage contemplated by the SJRWMD Agreement, the District issued the after-the-fact permit and the litigation was settled.

On November 21, 2011, the Company, Indigo Mallard Creek LLC and Indigo Development LLC, as owners of the property leased to Harris Teeter, Inc. (“Harris Teeter”) in Charlotte, North Carolina, were served with pleadings filed in the General Court of Justice, Superior Court Division for Mecklenburg County, North Carolina, for a highway condemnation action involving the property. The proposed road modifications would impact access to the Company’s property that is leased to Harris Teeter. The Company does not believe the road modifications provide a basis for Harris Teeter to terminate the Lease. In May 2012, the North Carolina Department of Transportation (“NCDOT”) indicated that while it had not reached a final decision on its consideration of this matter, the intersection would remain all-access. On November 6, 2012, the Company filed its response to the condemnation pleadings. The trial in this matter has been initially scheduled for the week of September 16, 2013, with mediation to occur prior to July 22, 2013. In January 30, 2013, NCDOT proposed to redesign the road modifications to keep the all access intersection open for ingress with no change to the planned limitation on egress to the right-in/right-out only. Additionally, NCDOT and the City of Charlotte (“Charlotte”) proposed to build and maintain a new access road/point into the property. These proposals are tentative and any proposed action by NCDOT and Charlotte would require NCDOT and Charlotte to obtain additional public funding.

In May 2010, the Company filed a lawsuit in the Circuit Court, Seventh Judicial Circuit, in and for Volusia County, Florida, in order to enforce its approximate $3.8 million claim of lien on real property owned by FM Bayberry Cove Holding, LLC (“FM Bayberry”) for its share of the costs for construction of a road. BB&T was included as a defendant as the current mortgage holder of the property subject to the Company’s lien. BB&T filed a counterclaim asserting that its mortgage is superior to the Company’s claim of lien which the Company denied. BB&T and the Company each filed motions for summary judgment as to the priority of their respective interests in the property which were heard by the court on January 12, 2012. The Circuit Court determined that the Company’s interests were superior to the lien imposed by BB&T and all other interests. The Company subsequently filed a motion for summary judgment of foreclosure, which was granted and the Final Judgment of Foreclosure was entered in August 2012. However, all further proceedings in the Circuit Court (including the foreclosure sale) are stayed pending BB&T’s appeal to the Florida District Court of Appeal, Fifth District regarding the Circuit Court’s determination in the matter of priority. In December 2012, the Company and BB&T attended an appellate court-ordered mediation. The mediation was terminated on or about January 10, 2013, when the parties were unable to reach agreement. This matter is continuing in the appeal at this time with BB&T’s initial brief due to be filed on or about May 1, 2013. As of March 31, 2013, the amount of the judgment plus interest is in excess of $4.4 million.

NOTE 10. TREASURY STOCK

On April 26, 2012, the Company announced a voluntary Odd-Lot Buy-Back Program (the “Program”), whereby the Company offered to purchase shares from shareholders who owned less than 100 shares of the Company’s common stock as of April 26, 2012, for $31.00 per share. The Program reflected the Company’s interest in reducing the ongoing costs associated with shareholder recordkeeping and communications and to assist shareholders who may be deterred from selling their small lots of stock due to the costs that would be incurred. The Company paid all costs associated with the Program and purchased 14,634 shares under the Program at a total cost of $453,654. The Program expired June 30, 2012. The Company did not provide any recommendation regarding shareholder participation and the decision was entirely that of each shareholder as to whether to sell shares in this Program.

NOTE 11. BUSINESS SEGMENT DATA

The Company primarily operates in three business segments: income properties, real estate operations, and golf operations. Our income property operations consist primarily of income producing properties and our business plan is focused on investing in additional income producing properties. Our income property operations accounted for 73.4% and 70.8% of our identifiable assets and 62.4% and 47.3% of our consolidated revenues as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and year ended December 31, 2012, respectively. Our real estate operations primarily consist of revenues generated from land transactions and leasing and royalty income from our interests in subsurface oil, gas and mineral rights. Our golf operations consist of a single property located in the City, with two 18-hole championship golf courses, a practice facility, and clubhouse facilities, including a restaurant and bar operation. The majority of the revenues generated by the golf operation are derived from members and public customers playing golf, club memberships, and food and beverage operations.

The Company evaluates performance based on profit or loss from operations before income taxes. The Company’s reportable segments are strategic business units that offer different products. They are managed separately because each segment requires different management techniques, knowledge, and skills.

Information about the Company’s operations in the different segments for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 is as follows:

Operating income represents income from continuing operations before loss on early extinguishment of debt, interest expense, interest income, and income taxes. General and corporate expenses are an aggregate of general and administrative expenses, impairment charges, depreciation and amortization expense, and gains (losses) on the disposition of assets. Identifiable assets by segment are those assets that are used in the Company’s operations in each segment. Other assets consist primarily of cash, property, plant, and equipment related to the other operations as well as the general and corporate operations. There were no transactions between segments for any of the periods presented. Certain items in the prior years’ consolidated statement of operations have been reclassified to conform to the presentation of the consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and year ended December 31, 2012. Specifically, the depreciation and amortization expense and interest expense have been segregated into separate line times, whereas previously, these amounts were included in direct cost of revenues and general and administrative expenses, respectively. These reclassifications had no effect on the prior year presentation of income from continuing operations before income tax.

NOTE 12. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING POLICIES

On January 1, 2012, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) changes related to fair value measurement and disclosure. The changes are the result of convergence with International Financial Reporting Standards and clarify certain fair value measurement concepts and expand on existing disclosure requirements on Level 3 fair value measurements. The adoption of these changes did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

On January 1, 2012, the Company adopted FASB changes related to the presentation of comprehensive income. The changes remove certain presentation options and require entities to report components of comprehensive income in either a continuous statement of comprehensive income or two separate but consecutive statements. There were no changes to the items that are reported in other comprehensive income. In December 2011, the FASB indefinitely deferred a requirement dealing with the presentation of reclassification adjustments out of accumulated other comprehensive income. Other than the sequencing of financial statements, the adoption of these changes did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

On January 1, 2013 the Company adopted FASB changes related to offsetting assets and liabilities. The changes require additional disclosure information regarding offsetting assets and liabilities to enable users of financial statements to understand the effect on financial position. The adoption of these changes did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

On January 1, 2013, the Company adopted FASB ASU 2013-2, Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income. This guidance requires an organization to present the effects on the line items of net income of significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income, but only if the item reclassified is required under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles to be reclassified to net income in its entirety in the same reporting period. The adoption of these changes did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 13. RECENT ACQUISITIONS OF INCOME PROPERTIES

During the three months ended March 31, 2013, the Company acquired seven income properties at a total acquisition cost of approximately $27.8 million. Of the total acquisition cost, approximately $9.4 million was allocated to land, approximately $16.2 million was allocated to buildings and improvements, and approximately $2.2 million was allocated to intangible assets pertaining to the in-place lease value. The weighted average amortization period for the $2.2 million allocated to intangible assets is approximately 10.1 years.

Forward-Looking Statements

When the Company uses any of the words “anticipate,” “assume,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” or similar expressions, the Company is making forward-looking statements. Although management believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based upon present expectations and reasonable assumptions, the Company’s actual results could differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements. Certain factors that could cause actual results or events to differ materially from those the Company anticipates or projects are described in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, for year ended December 31, 2012. Given these uncertainties, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such statements, which speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or any document incorporated herein by reference. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly release any revisions to these forward-looking statements that may be made to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, or the aforementioned risk factors.

OVERVIEW

We are a diversified real estate operating company. We own and manage commercial real estate properties in seven states in the U.S., with two self-developed multi-tenant properties located in Florida. We also own and manage a land portfolio, of over 10,000 acres in Florida, of which a majority is located within and forms a substantial portion of the western boundary of the City of Daytona Beach. Our land is well-located along both sides of Interstate 95 and near central Florida’s Interstate 4 corridor. We also have a golf course operation, which consists of the LPGA International golf club, lease property for billboards, have agricultural operations, which are managed by a third party and consist of leasing land for hay production, timber harvesting, and hunting leases, and own and manage subsurface oil, gas, and mineral interests. The results of our agricultural and subsurface leasing operations are included in other income and real estate operations, respectively on our consolidated statement of operations.

Income Property Operations. We have pursued a strategy of investing in income producing properties, by utilizing, when possible, the proceeds from real estate transactions qualifying for income tax deferral through like-kind exchange treatment for tax purposes. Through March 31, 2013, we had invested approximately $175.8 million in forty-one single-tenant income properties primarily through this tax-deferred structure. We have sold five of these income properties, with two sold in February 2013, for $7.6 million, and three sold in prior years, for a total of $10.7 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2013, we acquired the following seven income properties at a total purchase price of approximately $27.6 million:

 

   

On January 3, 2013, the Company acquired four properties leased to Bank of America, N.A. in both Los Angeles County and Orange County, California at an aggregate purchase price of $8,015,737. The initial terms of the leases are 15 years.

 

   

On January 23, 2013, the Company acquired a 34,512 square-foot free-standing building situated on 3.62 acres in Glendale, Arizona. The property is under lease to Big Lots with an initial term of 10 years. The purchase price totaled $5,001,500.

 

   

On January 31, 2013, the Company acquired a two-building 133,000 square-foot office complex leased to Hilton Resorts Corporation in Orlando, Florida. The total purchase price was $14.6 million. Both buildings are under a long term lease, with over eight years remaining in the term, which provides for annual lease escalations.

Our current portfolio of income properties generates approximately $11.6 million of revenues from lease payments on an annualized basis and has an average remaining lease term of 10.4 years as of March 31, 2013.

We expect to continue to focus on acquiring additional income-producing properties during fiscal 2013, and in the near term thereafter, maintaining our use of the aforementioned tax deferral structure whenever possible.

As of March 31, 2013, the Company owned two retail banking sites in Florida, originally leased by RBC Centura Bank (“RBC”). In March 2012, RBC’s U.S. retail banking unit merged with PNC Bank. The Company does not expect the merger to have an adverse impact on the leases for these properties. During the fourth quarter of 2009, RBC closed the branch at one of the retail banking sites owned by the Company, located in Altamonte Springs, Florida. The tenant remains obligated on the lease for the remaining term of the lease and the scheduled lease payments have continued to be collected.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)

 

As part of our overall strategy for investing in income-producing investments, we have self-developed two properties in Daytona Beach, Florida. The first property is a two-building, 31,000 square-foot flex office space complex located within the Mason Commerce Center. The two buildings represent the first phase of a four-building planned commercial development. The second phase would allow for an identical two-building project to be built. As of March 31, 2013, the occupancy of the completed two-building complex is 94%. The second self-developed property is the first phase of a twelve-acre, four-lot commercial complex located at the northeast corner of LPGA and Williamson Boulevards in Daytona Beach, Florida. The parcel includes a 22,000 square-foot, two-story office building known as the Concierge Office Building. As of March 31, 2013, approximately 74.3% of the building was leased to two tenants.

Our focus on acquiring income-producing investments includes a continual review of our existing income property portfolio to identify opportunities to recycle our capital through the sale of income properties based on, among other possible factors, the current or expected performance of the property and market conditions. Pursuant to our on-going review, two properties were sold in the first quarter of 2013. The Company anticipates making new investments in other income-producing assets with the proceeds from selling this property, utilizing the tax-deferred like-kind exchange structure, as circumstances permit.

Real Estate Operations. Until the significant downturn in the U.S. economy in 2008, the Company’s land transaction activity had been reasonably strong in the preceding several years. During 2009, however, land transactions decreased significantly, and in fiscal years 2010 and 2011, there were effectively no land transactions. We believe the trend in Company revenues and income from real estate operations during this period were consistent with the overall trend of national and local economies and real estate markets in general. Over the last several years, roads and interstate overpasses have been constructed, extended, or improved in the Daytona Beach, Volusia County area, which we believe will benefit Company owned land and may have a positive impact on future activity of our land assets. Additionally, the Company received $73,403 and $11,957 from third parties for the purchase of impact fees in the first three months of 2013 and 2012, respectively. In the second quarter of 2012, we completed the sale of 16.6 acres of industrial land west of Interstate 95 at a price of $618,272 or $37,245 per acre. The gain on the sale of this land totaled $573,069.

During 2011, the Company conducted an impairment analysis on approximately 300 acres of land, which had been reacquired in 2009 through a foreclosure proceeding. The analysis resulted in an impairment charge of $2,606,412. The charge represented the entire cost basis of the property as management decided to abandon the property due to the high carrying costs associated with these parcels, as they were subject to the Indigo Community Development District bond issue, relative to the current market environment for undeveloped land. In the fourth quarter of 2012, the Company sold substantially all of its interest in this land to a third party for de minimus cash proceeds and the assumption of approximately $238,000 of accrued liabilities.

Historical revenues and income in our real estate operations are not indicative of future results because of the unique nature of land transactions and variations in the cost basis of the owned land. A significant portion of the Company’s revenue and income in any given year may be generated through relatively large commercial real estate transactions. The timing for these real estate transactions, from the time of preliminary discussions, contract negotiations, and due diligence periods to closing, can last from several months to several years. Although we believe there have been recent indications of improvement in the overall economy and credit markets, we do not expect a significant improvement of economic conditions in the near term, in particular with the real estate market, and as a result we believe our ability to enter into land transactions will remain challenging.

The Company owns full or fractional subsurface oil, gas, and mineral interests in approximately 490,000 surface acres in 20 Florida counties. Our subsurface operations consist of revenue from the leasing of exploration rights and in some instances additional revenues from royalties applicable to production from the leased acreage. During 2011, an eight-year oil exploration lease covering approximately 136,000 net mineral acres primarily located in Lee and Hendry Counties was executed and a $913,657 first year rental payment was received. An additional $922,114, representing the guaranteed payment for the second year delay lease payment, was received in September 2012. We are recognizing the two

payments totaling approximately $1.83 million into income through the first two years of the lease, which expires September 2013. After the second year of the lease, the Company would receive royalty payments if oil production occurs. Alternately, if production does not commence by the third anniversary of the effective date of the lease and the lease is not terminated by the parties at that time, the Company will receive additional lease payments based upon the acres remaining under lease. The Company also generates income from the release of surface entry rights.

At March 31, 2013, the Company also received oil royalties from operating oil wells on 800 acres under a separate lease with a separate operator. The Company received oil royalties of $88,070 and $78,569 in the three months ended March 31, 2013, and 2012, respectively.

During the first quarter of 2012, the Company signed an excavation agreement for fill dirt removal with up to four nine-month excavation periods and received an upfront non-refundable payment of $250,000 for the first excavation period beginning March 2012, and ending November 30, 2012. Through December 31, 2012, we recognized the entire non-refundable payment into income. The income from this excavation agreement was reclassified from Other Income into Real Estate Operations in the fourth quarter of 2012, and all prior quarterly information has been adjusted accordingly.

Golf Operations. Golf operations consist of the operation of two 18-hole championship golf courses with a three-hole practice facility, a clubhouse facility, and food and beverage activities within the LPGA International mixed-use residential community on the west side of Interstate 95 in Daytona Beach, Florida. LPGA International is a semi-private golf club consisting of an 18-hole course designed by Rees Jones and an 18-hole course designed by Arthur Hills.

The Company leases the land and certain improvements attributable to the golf courses under a long-term lease with the City of Daytona Beach, Florida (the “City”). The Company entered into a management agreement with an affiliate of ClubCorp America, effective January 25, 2012, to manage the LPGA International golf and clubhouse facilities. We believe ClubCorp, which owns and operates clubs and golf courses worldwide, brings substantial golf and club management expertise and knowledge to the LPGA International golf operations, including the utilization of national marketing capabilities, aggregated purchasing programs, and implementation of an affiliate member program, which should improve membership levels through the access to other member clubs in the affiliate program.

In July 2012, the Company entered into an agreement with the City to, among other things, amend the remaining lease payments under the golf course lease whereby the base rent payment scheduled to increase from $250,000 to $500,000 as of September 1, 2012, for the remainder of the lease term and any extensions, was kept at $250,000, subject to an annual rate increase of 1.75% beginning September 1, 2013. Since the inception of the lease, the Company has been recognizing the rent expense on a straight-line basis resulting in an estimated accrual for deferred rent equal to approximately $3.7 million, as of December 31, 2012. Upon the effective date of the amendment to the lease, the Company’s straight-line rent was revised to reflect the lower rent levels through expiration of the lease. As a result, approximately $3.0 million of the rent previously deferred will not be due, and will be recognized into income over the remaining lease term of 10 years. As of March 31, 2013, the adjusted liability equaled approximately $3.6 million. As part of the lease amendment, we agreed to invest $200,000 of capital improvements to the facilities by September 1, 2015. In December 2012, we completed a renovation of the clubhouse which involved both the remodeling of the primary food and beverage restaurant, as well as the pro shop, for a total cost of approximately $425,000. In addition, beginning on September 1, 2012, and continuing throughout the initial lease term and any extension option, the Company will pay additional rent to the City in the amounts of 5.0% of gross revenues exceeding $5,500,000 up to $6,500,000 and 7.0% of gross revenues exceeding $6,500,000. The lease matures in 2022 with seven renewal options of five years each.

Other Income. Substantially all of our other income consists of revenues generated by our agricultural operations. The Company’s agricultural lands encompass approximately 9,700 acres in Daytona Beach, Florida. Our agricultural operations are managed by a third-party and consist of leasing land for hay production, timber harvesting, as well as hunting leases.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)

 

SUMMARY OF OPERATING RESULTS FOR QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 2013 COMPARED TO MARCH 31, 2012

Total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2013, increased 9.2% to $5.1 million, compared to $4.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012. This increase included approximately $964,000 in additional rent revenue generated by our income properties portfolio primarily from properties acquired in 2012 and the first quarter of 2013, in addition to a $135,106 increase in revenue from our golf operations, offset by a $727,000 decrease in revenue from our real estate operations. Our income from continuing operations for the three months ended March 31, 2013, was approximately $277,000 versus $318,000 in the same period in 2012. Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2013, was approximately $337,000, or $0.06 per share, versus net income of approximately $494,000, or $0.09 per share in same period in 2012. The decrease in net income was primarily due to a decrease of approximately $727,000 in revenue from our real estate operations which, in the first quarter of 2012, was the amount we recognized from the resolution of the Dunn Avenue extension matter. In addition, net income for the three months ended March 31, 2013 benefited from our increased revenues in the income property operations and golf operations of approximately $964,000 and $135,000, respectively, offset by increased non-cash expenses including depreciation and amortization and stock compensation which increased approximately $235,000 and $195,000, respectively.

INCOME PROPERTIES

Revenues and operating income from our income property operations totaled $3.2 million and $2.9 million, respectively, during the quarter ended March 31, 2013, compared to total revenue and operating income of $2.2 million and $2.0 million, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2012. The direct costs of revenues for our income property operations totaled $229,509 and $144,404 for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The 44.0% increase in revenues reflects our expanded portfolio of income properties, with the benefit of 12 income properties acquired from May 2012 through January 3, 2013, and partial revenues from three properties acquired in late January of 2013. Our increased operating income from our income property operations reflects the aforementioned increased rent revenues offset by an increase of $85,105 in our direct costs of revenues, which was primarily due to two of the properties acquired in January 2013, which are base stop leases resulting in increased operating expenses, including property taxes, for these properties.

REAL ESTATE OPERATIONS

During the quarter ended March 31, 2013, operating income from real estate operations was approximately $217,000 on revenues totaling approximately $338,000, a decrease of approximately $684,000 in operating income compared to the same period in 2012. For the three months ended March 31, 2012, revenues were approximately $1.07 million and income was approximately $901,000. The revenue and income for the 2012 period included revenue of approximately $730,000 recognized in connection with the final resolution of the Dunn Avenue Extension agreement.

GOLF OPERATIONS

The Company’s golf operations had net operating income of approximately $57,000 during the quarter ended March 31, 2013, representing a 143.3% improvement over the net operating loss of approximately $132,000 in the first quarter of 2012. Revenues from golf operations totaled approximately $1.46 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013, compared to total revenues of approximately $1.33 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012. The total direct cost of golf operations revenues totaled approximately $1.41 million and approximately $1.46 million for the quarters ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The approximately $189,000 improvement in the net operating results from the golf operations was due to an increase of approximately 95% in the number of members since March 31, 2012, which resulted in an increase in revenues from membership activities of nearly $120,000, which does not generate significant increased costs. In addition, our food and beverage revenues increased substantially as a result of our renovated facilities. Operating costs improved by 3.7% or approximately $54,000 in the first quarter of 2013, compared to the same period in 2012.

OTHER INCOME

For the three months ended March 31, 2013, revenues from other sources, primarily our agriculture operations, totaled approximately $98,000, compared to approximately $43,000, in the same period in 2012. The more than 128% increase in revenues primarily reflects revenues from additional timber harvesting. For the three months ended March 31, 2013, the direct cost of revenues totaled approximately $31,000, compared to approximately $72,000, in the same quarter in 2012, reflecting a decrease of approximately $40,000, or 56.2%, which is attributable to the reduction of employees, the disposition of agricultural equipment and related maintenance and insurance, and the outsourcing of the agriculture operations. As a result of the increased revenue and decreased operating costs, the agriculture operations had net operating income of approximately $66,000 in the quarter ended March 31, 2013, an improvement of approximately $95,000, or 330% from the net operating loss of approximately $29,000 in the quarter ended March 31, 2012.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE AND OTHER CORPORATE EXPENSES

General and administrative expenses totaled approximately $1.75 million and $1.42 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The increase in 2013 was primarily comprised of higher stock compensation costs, which totaled $444,416, an increase of 77.7%, reflecting our higher stock price and additional grants of equity-based stock options in January 2013, and some increased payroll costs. General and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2012, included stock compensation cost of $250,000.

Interest expense totaled approximately $297,000 and $150,000 for the quarters ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The increased interest expense in the first quarter of 2013 compared to the same period in 2012 reflects our increased borrowings to finance our acquisition of more than $53.5 million in income properties during the period from March 31, 2012 to March 31, 2013. During that period, our long-term debt increased $32.9 million, of which approximately $20.0 million occurred during the first quarter of 2013. In the first quarter of 2012 we also recognized a loss of $245,726, related to the extinguishment of the debt outstanding that was paid off with proceeds from the new credit agreement entered into with Bank of Montreal (“BMO”).

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

In the fourth quarter of 2012, one income property was classified as held for sale as we had commenced an active program to market and sell the property and determined there was a high probability that a sales transaction would occur within one year. An additional property was listed for sale, but not presented as assets held for sale on the balance sheet as no contract was in place. Both of these properties were sold during the three months ended March 31, 2013, therefore, these properties’ operating results were included in discontinued operations for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash totaled approximately $1.4 million at March 31, 2013, with additional restricted cash of approximately $890,000 being held in a reserve primarily for tenant improvements in connection with our financing of two properties acquired in January 2013.

Our total cash balance at March 31, 2013, reflects cash flows provided by operating activities totaling approximately $1.4 million, during the quarter. This cash flow compares favorably to the prior year’s cash flows provided by operating activities totaling approximately $633,000. This improvement was primarily attributable to the improved operating results in 2013, including the increased cash flows generated by our income property portfolio, which expanded significantly since March 31, 2012 and our utilization of certain tax assets.

Our cash flows used in investing activities totaled approximately $21.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013, reflecting the use of approximately $27.8 million to acquire seven income properties during the quarter. Offset by the cash flow from investing activities were the proceeds from the sale of two income properties, for $7.3 million.

Our cash flows provided by financing activities, totaled approximately $20.2 million, for the three months ended March 31, 2013. As described below, the cash flows provided by our financing activities are primarily related to a net increase in the notes payable and our line of credit, which were utilized in our investing activities, offset by repayments on our credit facility.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)

 

The note payable and line of credit totaled approximately $49.2 million at March 31, 2013, representing an increase of approximately $20.0 million from the balance of approximately $29.1 million at December 31, 2012. The increase in the note payable and line of credit was due to our acquisition activities net of payments we made to reduce the balance outstanding on the line of credit, utilizing cash from our operations and the proceeds from the origination of the notes payable.

On February 27, 2012, we entered into a financing agreement with BMO. The agreement consisted of a $46.0 million revolving credit facility with a maturity of February 27, 2015, subject to a one-year extension at the option of the Company. The indebtedness outstanding accrued interest, prior to the amendments of the agreement at a rate ranging from the 30-day London Interbank Offer Rate (“LIBOR”) plus basis points to LIBOR plus 250 basis points, with the spread over LIBOR based on a ratio of the Company’s total indebtedness to total asset value. The indebtedness under the facility is unsecured and is guaranteed by certain subsidiaries of the Company.

On September 20, 2012, the Company entered into the First Amendment to the Credit Agreement (“Amendment”). This Amendment, under the accordion feature, expanded the credit facility to $62.0 million. The Amendment also modified some of the restrictive covenants contained in the original Agreement. The changes to the restrictive covenants are not considered material in nature. On September 21, 2012, Branch Banking and Trust Company was added as a participating lender to the Agreement in the amount of $16.0 million. On February 14, 2013, Wells Fargo Bank N.A. was added as a participant lender to the Agreement in the amount of $20.0 million and the total available capacity on the facility was increased to $66.0 million. As a result, as of February 14, 2013, BMO’s commitment under the $66.0 million facility capacity totaled $30.0 million.

On March 29, 2013, the Company entered into the second amendment to the Credit Agreement (“Second Amendment”). The Second Amendment expands the accordion feature allowing the Company to increase the facility up to $125 million and reduces the interest rate by 25 basis points, which now ranges from LIBOR plus 150 basis points up to LIBOR plus 225 basis points, based on the Company’s debt level. The Second Amendment also extends the maturity date to March 31, 2016 from February 27, 2015.

On February 14, 2013, the Company sold its interest in the 4,128 square-foot building under lease to PNC Bank, located in Alpharetta, Georgia. The sales price on this transaction amounted to $3,550,000. The property was written down to estimated fair value resulting in a loss of $426,794, and was presented as assets held for sale on the consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2012. The property’s operating results were included in discontinued operations for each of the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012. On February 21, 2013, the Company sold its interest in the 13,824 square-foot building under lease to CVS, located in Clermont, Florida. The sales price on this transaction amounted to $4,050,000. As of December 31, 2012, no contract was in place, therefore, this property was not presented as assets held for sale on the balance sheet. However, upon the sale, the property’s operating results were included in discontinued operations for the three months ended, March 31, 2013 and 2012.

As noted previously, the Company used approximately $27.8 million of cash to acquire seven income properties during the first quarter ended March 31, 2013. These acquisitions included: four single-tenant bank branches in Orange and Los Angeles County, California for $8.0 million, a single-tenant property located in Phoenix, Arizona for $5.0 million, and two single-tenant office properties in Orlando, Florida for $14.6 million. We are targeting additional investments between approximately $18 million to $28 million in income-producing properties or mortgage loans during the remainder of 2013. We expect to fund these acquisitions utilizing the available capacity under our credit facility of approximately $47.3 million, cash from operations, proceeds from the dispositions of non-core income properties or transactions in our land assets, which we expect will qualify under the like-kind exchange deferred-tax structure, and additional financing sources.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)

 

Additional funds expected to be invested for tenant improvements on our self-developed income properties will only occur as new leases are secured. As of March 31, 2013, our contractual requirements to make capital expenditures are limited to certain tenant improvements for the two income properties leased to Hilton Resorts Corporation in the amount of approximately $773,000 for which we have recognized an obligation and reserved sufficient cash to fund the improvements, which is included in restricted cash as of March 31, 2013. Investments in capital improvements can be reduced at our discretion based on operating cash needs. We do not anticipate investing significant funds on further improvements to the golf operations facilities in 2013.

We believe we will have sufficient liquidity to fund our operations, capital requirements, and debt service requirements over the next twelve months and into the foreseeable future, with cash flow from our operations and the aforementioned available capacity on the existing $66.0 million credit facility as of March 31, 2013.

During the fourth quarter of 2008, our Board of Directors authorized a program to repurchase shares of our common stock having an aggregate value of up to $8,000,000. The authorization permits us to effect repurchases from time to time through a variety of methods including open market repurchases and privately negotiated transactions. Through March 31, 2013, 4,660 shares had been repurchased at a total cost of $104,648, with no repurchases occurring during 2013.

On April 26, 2012, the Company announced a voluntary Odd-Lot Buy-Back Program (the “Program”), whereby the Company offered to purchase shares from shareholders who owned less than 100 shares of the Company’s common stock as of April 26, 2012 for $31.00 per share. The Program reflected the Company’s interest in reducing the ongoing costs associated with shareholder recordkeeping and communications and to assist shareholders who may be deterred from selling their small lots of stock due to the costs that would be incurred. The Company paid all costs associated with the Program and purchased 14,634 shares under the Program at a total cost of $453,654. The Program expired June 30, 2012. The Company did not provide any recommendation regarding shareholder participation and the decision was entirely that of each shareholder as to whether to sell shares in this Program.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)

 

Our Board of Directors and management consistently review the allocation of capital with the goal of providing the best long-term return for our shareholders. These reviews consider various alternatives, including increasing or decreasing regular dividends, repurchasing stock, and retaining funds for reinvestment. Annually, the Board reviews our business plan and corporate strategies and makes adjustments as circumstances warrant. Management’s focus is to continue our strategy to diversify our portfolio by redeploying proceeds from like-kind exchange transactions and utilizing our credit facility to increase our portfolio of income-producing properties, providing stabilized cash flows with good risk adjusted returns primarily in larger metropolitan areas.

We may also utilize our under-leveraged balance sheet to invest in loans, securities, and other shorter term investments. Targeted investment classes include the following:

 

   

Retail and office double-or-triple-net leased properties in major metropolitan areas;

 

   

Stabilized multi-tenant office and retail properties in major metropolitan areas;

 

   

Select office, flex, industrial, and retail self-developed properties on Company owned land;

 

   

Joint venture development using Company owned land;

 

   

Origination or purchase of 1-5 year term loans on strong risk-adjusted yields with property types to include hotel, office, retail, and industrial;

 

   

Real estate related investment securities, including commercial mortgage backed securities, preferred stock, and bonds;

 

   

Select regional area investments using Company market knowledge and expertise to earn good risk adjusted yields; and

 

   

Purchase or origination of ground leases.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Our significant accounting policies are described in the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year-ended December 31, 2012. Judgments and estimates of uncertainties are required in applying our accounting policies in many areas. During the three months ended March 31, 2013, there have been no material changes to the critical accounting policies affecting the application of those accounting policies as noted in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISKS

The principal market risk (i.e., the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices) to which we are exposed is interest rates. The objective of our asset management activities is to provide an adequate level of liquidity to fund operations and capital expansion, while minimizing market risk. We utilize overnight sweep accounts and short-term investments to minimize our interest rate risk. We do not actively invest or trade in equity securities. We do not believe that this interest rate risk related to cash equivalents and short-term investments is material due to the nature of the investments.

We manage our debt, considering investment opportunities and risk, tax consequences, and overall financial strategies. We are primarily exposed to interest rate risk on our outstanding debt borrowings, which totaled $49.1 at March 31, 2013. Our borrowings include $18.7 million outstanding on our $66.0 million revolving credit facility, which bears a variable rate of interest based on the 30-day LIBOR and our level of borrowing as a percentage of our total asset value. Approximately $30.4 million of our outstanding debt bears interest at a fixed rate of 3.67%. Management’s objective is to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and to lower the overall borrowing costs. A hypothetical change in the interest rate of 100 basis points (i.e. 1%) would affect our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows by approximately $187,000.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

As of the end of the period covered by this report, an evaluation, as required by Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based on that evaluation, our CEO and CFO have concluded that the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2013, to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Company in such reports is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2013, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

From time to time, the Company may be a party to certain legal proceedings, incidental to the normal course of its business. While the outcome of the legal proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company does not expect that these proceedings will have a material effect upon our financial condition or results of operations.

In September 2010, St. Johns River Water Management District (the “District”) served the Company with an administrative complaint filed with the Florida Division of Administrative Hearings in connection with certain Company agricultural operations. In August 2012 the Company submitted a proposed settlement offer to the District, offering certain undeveloped acreage owned by the Company. The Company accrued a reserve equal to $611,691 in the quarter ended September 30, 2012, reflecting the Company’s carrying value of the acreage offered to settle the matter. In December 2012, the Company and the District executed a settlement agreement (“SJRWMD Agreement”) in which the Company agreed to submit an after-the-fact permit application and increased the undeveloped acreage offered for mitigation in connection with the permit. The Company adjusted the reserve to a total of $723,058 to reflect the increased acreage offered in the SJRWMD Agreement. The SJRWMD Agreement was contingent upon the Company and the District reaching agreement on a management fee and issuance of the permit. The Company submitted its permit application on January 28, 2013. In March 2013 the Company conveyed the acreage contemplated by the SJRWMD Agreement, the District issued the after-the-fact permit and the litigation was settled.

On November 21, 2011, the Company, Indigo Mallard Creek LLC and Indigo Development LLC, as owners of the property leased to Harris Teeter, Inc. (“Harris Teeter”) in Charlotte, North Carolina, were served with pleadings filed in the General Court of Justice, Superior Court Division for Mecklenburg County, North Carolina, for a highway condemnation action involving the property. The proposed road modifications would impact access to the Company’s property that is leased to Harris Teeter. The Company does not believe the road modifications provide a basis for Harris Teeter to terminate the Lease. In May 2012, the North Carolina Department of Transportation (“NCDOT”) indicated that while it had not reached a final decision on its consideration of this matter, the intersection would remain all-access. On November 6, 2012, the Company filed its response to the condemnation pleadings. The trial in this matter has been initially scheduled for the week of September 16, 2013, with mediation to occur prior to July 22, 2013. In January 30, 2013, NCDOT proposed to redesign the road modifications to keep the all access intersection open for ingress with no change to the planned limitation on egress to the right-in/right-out only. Additionally, NCDOT and the City of Charlotte (“Charlotte”) proposed to build and maintain a new access road/point into the property. These proposals are tentative and any proposed action by NCDOT and Charlotte would require NCDOT and Charlotte to obtain additional public funding.

In May 2010, the Company filed a lawsuit in the Circuit Court, Seventh Judicial Circuit, in and for Volusia County, Florida, in order to enforce its approximate $3.8 million claim of lien on real property owned by FM Bayberry Cove Holding, LLC (“FM Bayberry”) for its share of the costs for construction of a road. BB&T was included as a defendant as the current mortgage holder of the property subject to the Company’s lien. BB&T filed a counterclaim asserting that its mortgage is superior to the Company’s claim of lien which the Company denied. BB&T and the Company each filed motions for summary judgment as to the priority of their respective interests in the property which were heard by the court on January 12, 2012. The Circuit Court determined that the Company’s interests were superior to the lien imposed by BB&T and all other interests. The Company subsequently filed a motion for summary judgment of foreclosure, which was granted and the Final Judgment of Foreclosure was entered in August 2012. However, all further proceedings in the Circuit Court (including the foreclosure sale) are stayed pending BB&T’s appeal to the Florida District Court of Appeal, Fifth District regarding the Circuit Court’s determination in the matter of priority. In December 2012, the Company and BB&T attended an appellate court-ordered mediation. The mediation was terminated on or about January 10, 2013, when the parties were unable to reach agreement. This matter is continuing in the appeal at this time with BB&T’s initial brief due to be filed on or about May 1, 2013. As of December 31, 2012, the amount of the judgment plus interest is in excess of $4.4 million.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

Certain statements contained in this report (other than statements of historical fact) are forward-looking statements. The words “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “will,” “could,” “may,” “should,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “forecast,” “project,” and similar expressions and variations thereof identify certain of such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the dates on which they were made. Forward-looking statements are made based upon management’s expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effect upon the Company. There can be no assurance that future developments will be in accordance with management’s expectations or that the effect of future developments on the Company will be those anticipated by management.

We wish to caution readers that the assumptions, which form the basis for forward-looking statements with respect to or that may impact earnings for the year-ended December 31, 2013, and thereafter, include many factors that are beyond the Company’s ability to control or estimate precisely. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the strength of the real estate market in the City of Daytona Beach and Volusia County, Florida; the impact of a prolonged recession or further downturn in economic conditions; our ability to successfully execute acquisition or development strategies; any loss of key management personnel; changes in local, regional, and national economic conditions affecting the real estate development business and income properties; the impact of environmental and land use regulations; extreme or severe weather conditions; the impact of competitive real estate activity; variability in quarterly results due to the unpredictable timing of land transactions; the loss of any major income property tenants; and the availability of capital. These risks and uncertainties may cause our actual future results to be materially different than those expressed in our forward-looking statements.

In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the yearended December 31, 2012. There have been no material changes to those risk factors. The risks described in the Annual Report on Form 10-K are not the only risks facing the Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to the Company or that the Company currently deems to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect the Company.

While we periodically reassess material trends and uncertainties affecting our results of operations and financial condition, we do not intend to review or revise any particular forward-looking statement referenced herein in light of future events.

2.7.3 Payments Received Under Cash Management Agreement. The insufficiency of funds on deposit in the Cash Management Account shall not relieve Borrower from the obligation to make any payments, as and when due pursuant to this Agreement, the Note and the other Loan Documents, and such obligation shall be separate and independent, and not conditioned on any event or circumstance whatsoever. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Note or the other Loan Documents, and provided that no Event of Default shall have occurred and remain outstanding, Borrower’s obligations with respect to the payment of the Monthly Debt Service Payment Amount and amounts required to be deposited into the Reserve Funds, if any, shall be deemed satisfied to the extent sufficient amounts are deposited in the Cash Management Account to satisfy such obligations pursuant to the Cash Management Agreement on the dates each such payment is required, regardless of whether any of such amounts are so applied by Lender.

Borrower has no material financial obligation (contingent or otherwise) under any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement or other agreement or instrument to which Borrower is a party or by which Borrower or the Property is otherwise bound, other than (a) obligations incurred in the ordinary course of the operation of the Property as permitted under Section 3.1.24(d) hereof and (b) obligations under the Loan Documents.

3.1.7 Title. Borrower has good and insurable fee simple title to the real property comprising part of the Property and good title to the balance of the Property, free and clear of all Liens whatsoever except the Permitted Encumbrances.

There are no claims for payment or mechanic’s, materialman’s or other similar liens or claims which have been filed for work, labor or materials affecting the Property which are or may become Liens prior to, or of equal priority with, the Lien of the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents. None of the Permitted Encumbrances, individually or in the aggregate, materially interfere with the benefits of the security intended to be provided by the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents, materially and adversely affect the value of the Property, impair the use or operation of the Property or impair Borrower’s ability to perform its Obligations in a timely manner.

3.1.8 No Plan Assets. As of the date hereof and throughout the Term, (a) Borrower does not sponsor, is not obligated to contribute to and is not itself and will not be an “employee benefit plan,” as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA, subject to Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, (b) none of the assets of Borrower constitutes or will constitute “plan assets” of one or more such plans within the meaning of 29 C.F.R.

3.1.9 Compliance. Borrower and the Property and the use thereof comply in all material respects with all applicable Legal Requirements, including, without limitation, building and zoning ordinances and codes. In the event that all or any part of the Improvements are destroyed or damaged, said Improvements can be legally reconstructed to their condition prior to such damage or destruction, and thereafter exist for the same use without violating any zoning or other ordinances applicable thereto and without the necessity of obtaining any variances or special permits. No legal proceedings are pending or, to the knowledge of Borrower, threatened with respect to the zoning of the Property. Neither the zoning nor any other right to construct, use or operate the Property is in any way dependent upon or related to any property other than the Property. Borrower is not in default or violation of any order, regulation, writ, injunction, decree or demand of any Governmental Authority, the violation of which could have a Material Adverse Effect. There has not been committed by Borrower or any other Person in occupancy of or involved with the operation or use of the Property any act or omission affording the federal government, any state or local government or any other Governmental Authority the right of forfeiture as against the Property or any part thereof or any monies paid in performance of Borrower’s Obligations under any of the Loan Documents.

3.1.16 Assignment of Leases. The Assignment of Leases creates a valid assignment of, or a valid security interest in, certain rights under the Leases, subject only to a license granted to Borrower to exercise certain rights and to perform certain obligations of the lessor under the Leases, as more particularly set forth therein. No Person other than Lender has any interest in or assignment of the Leases or any portion of the Rents due and payable or to become due and payable thereunder.

3.1.21 Boundaries. All of the improvements which were included in determining the appraised value of the Property lie wholly within the boundaries and building restriction lines of the Property, and no improvements on adjoining properties encroach upon the Property. No easements or other encumbrances affecting the Property encroach upon any of the Improvements so as to affect the value, marketability, use or operation of the Property except those which are insured against by the Title Insurance Policy, each of which, whether or not insured against by the Title Insurance Policy, is shown on the Survey.

(xvii) Lender shall be satisfied that, upon the completion of the Restoration, the Loan-to-Value Ratio shall not be greater than the lesser of (A) the Loan-to-Value Ratio as of the Closing Date, and (B) the Loan-to-Value Ratio immediately prior to such Casualty or Condemnation;

(xviii) Borrower shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Lender a signed, detailed budget approved in writing by Borrower’s architect or engineer stating all of the costs and expenses of completing the Restoration, which budget shall be acceptable to Lender; and

(xix) the Net Proceeds, together with any cash or cash equivalent deposited by Borrower with Lender, are sufficient, in Lender’s reasonable judgment, to pay for all costs and expenses of the Restoration in full.

(b) The Net Proceeds shall be paid directly to Lender and held by Lender in an interest-bearing account and, until disbursed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5.3.2, shall constitute additional security for the Obligations. The Net Proceeds (including all interest earned thereon) shall be disbursed by Lender to, or as directed by, Borrower from time to time during the course of the Restoration, upon receipt of evidence satisfactory to Lender that (i) all requirements set forth in Section 5.3.2(a) have been satisfied, (ii) all materials installed and work and labor performed (except to the extent that they are to be paid for out of the requested disbursement) in connection with the Restoration have been paid for in full, and (iii) there exist no notices of pendency, stop orders, mechanic’s or materialman’s liens or notices of intention to file same, or any other liens or encumbrances of any nature whatsoever on the Property arising out of the Restoration which have not either been fully bonded by a surety company acceptable to Lender and the Rating Agencies to the satisfaction of Lender and discharged of record or, in the alternative, fully insured to the satisfaction of Lender by the title insurance company issuing the Title Insurance Policy.

(c) All plans and specifications in connection with the Restoration shall be subject to the prior approval of Lender and an independent architect or engineer selected by Lender (the “Casualty Consultant”). The plans and specifications shall require that the Restoration be completed in a first-class workmanlike manner at least equivalent to the quality and character of the original work in the Improvements so that, upon completion thereof, the Property shall be at least equal in value and general utility to the Property prior to the Casualty or Condemnation, as applicable (it being understood, however, that (i) Borrower shall not be obligated to restore the Property to the precise condition of the Property prior to such Casualty or Condemnation, as applicable, and (ii) in the case of a partial Condemnation, the Restoration shall be done to the extent reasonably practicable after taking into account the consequences of such partial Condemnation; provided that the Property shall be restored, to the extent reasonably practicable, to be of at least equal value and of substantially the same character as prior to the Casualty or Condemnation, as applicable). Borrower shall restore all Improvements such that

 

75


when they are fully restored and/or repaired, such Improvements and their contemplated use fully comply with all applicable Legal Requirements. The identity of the contractors, subcontractors and materialmen engaged in the Restoration, as well as the contracts under which they have been engaged, shall be subject to the prior approval of Lender and the Casualty Consultant. All costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with recovering, holding and disbursing the Net Proceeds for the Restoration (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses and the Casualty Consultant’s fees and disbursements) shall be paid by Borrower.

(d) In no event shall Lender be obligated to make disbursements of the Net Proceeds in excess of an amount equal to the costs and expenses actually incurred from time to time for work in place as part of the Restoration, as certified by the Casualty Consultant, less the Casualty Retainage. The term “Casualty Retainage” shall mean, as to each contractor, subcontractor or materialman engaged in the Restoration, an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the costs and expenses actually incurred for work in place as part of the Restoration, as certified by the Casualty Consultant, until the Restoration has been completed. The Casualty Retainage shall in no event, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above in this Section 5.3.2(d), be less than the amount actually held back by Borrower from contractors, subcontractors and materialmen engaged in the Restoration. The Casualty Retainage shall not be released until the Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender that the Restoration has been completed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5.3.2 and that all approvals necessary for the re-occupancy and use of the Property have been obtained from all applicable Governmental Authorities, and Lender receives evidence satisfactory to Lender that the costs and expenses of the Restoration have been paid in full or will be paid in full out of the Casualty Retainage; provided, however, that Lender will release the portion of the Casualty Retainage being held with respect to any contractor, subcontractor or materialman engaged in the Restoration as of the date upon which (i) the Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender that such contractor, subcontractor or materialman has satisfactorily completed all work and has supplied all materials in accordance with the provisions of the contractor’s, subcontractor’s or materialman’s contract, (ii) such contractor, subcontractor or materialman delivers lien waivers and evidence of payment in full of all sums due to such contractor, subcontractor or materialman as may be reasonably requested by Lender or by the title insurance company issuing the Title Insurance Policy, and (iii) Lender receives an endorsement to the Title Insurance Policy insuring the continued priority of the Lien of the Security Instrument and evidence of payment of any premium payable in connection with such endorsement. If required by Lender, the release of any such portion of the Casualty Retainage shall be approved by the surety company, if any, which has issued a payment or performance bond with respect to the applicable contractor, subcontractor or materialman.

(e) Lender shall not be obligated to make disbursements of the Net Proceeds more frequently than once every calendar month.

(f) If at any time the Net Proceeds or the undisbursed balance thereof shall not, in the opinion of Lender in consultation with the Casualty Consultant, be sufficient to pay in full the balance of the costs and expenses which are estimated by the Casualty Consultant to be incurred in connection with the completion of the Restoration, Borrower shall deposit the deficiency (the “Net Proceeds Deficiency”) with Lender before any further disbursement of the Net Proceeds shall be made. The Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited with Lender shall be held

 

76


by Lender and shall be disbursed for costs and expenses actually incurred in connection with the Restoration on the same terms and conditions applicable to the disbursement of the Net Proceeds, and until so disbursed pursuant to this Section 5.3.2 shall constitute additional security for the Obligations.

(g) The excess, if any, of the Net Proceeds and the remaining balance, if any, of the Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited with Lender after (i) the Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender that the Restoration has been completed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5.3.2 and (ii) the receipt by Lender of evidence satisfactory to Lender that all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the Restoration have been paid in full shall be remitted by Lender to Borrower, provided that no Event of Default has occurred and remains outstanding; provided, however, that, in the case of a Condemnation, the amount returned to Borrower in accordance with this Section 5.3.2(g) shall not exceed the amount of the Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited by Borrower with the balance being applied to the Debt in the manner provided for in Section 5.3.2(h) hereof.

(h) All Net Proceeds not required (i) to be made available for the Restoration or (ii) to be returned to Borrower as excess Net Proceeds pursuant to Section 5.3.2(g) hereof may be retained and applied by Lender toward the payment of the Debt, whether or not then due and payable,: in such order, proportion and priority as Lender in its sole discretion shall deem proper, or, at the discretion of Lender, the same may be paid, either in whole or in part, to Borrower for such purposes as Lender shall approve in its sole discretion.

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, if the Loan is included in a REMIC Trust and, immediately following a release of any portion of the Lien of the Security Instrument following a Casualty or Condemnation (but taking into account any proposed Restoration of the remaining Property), the ratio of the unpaid principal balance of the Loan to the value of the remaining Property is greater than 125% (such value to be determined, in Lender’s sole discretion, by any commercially reasonable method permitted to a REMIC Trust, based solely on real property and excluding any personal property and going concern value, if any), the principal balance of the Loan must be paid down by an amount equal to the least of the following amounts: (i) the Net Proceeds, (ii) the fair market value of the released property at the time of the release, or (iii) an amount such that the loan-to-value ratio of the Loan (as so determined by Lender) does not increase after the release, unless Lender receives an opinion of counsel that if such amount is not paid, the applicable Securitization will not fail to maintain its status as a REMIC Trust as a result of the related release of such portion of the Lien of the Security Instrument. If and to the extent the preceding sentence applies, only such amount of the Net Proceeds, if any, in excess of the amount required to pay down the principal balance of the Loan may be released for purposes of Restoration or released to Borrower as otherwise expressly provided in this Section 5.3.

(d) Further, if requested by Lender, Borrower shall, promptly upon Lender’s request, furnish to Lender financial data or financial statements meeting the requirements of Item 1112(b)(1) or (2) of Regulation AB, as specified by Lender, for any tenant of the Property if, in connection with a Securitization, Lender expects there to be, as of the cut-off date for such Securitization, a concentration with respect to such tenant or group of Affiliated tenants within all of the mortgage loans included or expected to be included in the Securitization such that such tenant or group of Affiliated tenants would constitute a Significant Obligor. Borrower shall furnish to Lender, on an ongoing basis, financial data or financial statements with respect to such tenants meeting the requirements of Item 1112(b)(1) or (2) of Regulation AB, as specified by Lender, but only for so long as such entity or entities are a Significant Obligor and either (i) Exchange Act Filings in connection with or relating to the Securitization are required to be made under applicable Legal Requirements or (ii) comparable information is required to otherwise be “available” to holders of the Securities under Regulation AB or applicable Legal Requirements.

(e) If Lender determines that Borrower alone or Borrower and one or more Affiliates of any Borrower collectively, or the Property alone or the Property and Related Properties collectively, are a Significant Obligor, then Borrower shall furnish to Lender, on an ongoing basis, selected financial data or financial statements meeting the requirements of Item 1112(b)(1) or (2) of Regulation AB, as specified by Lender, but only for so long as such entity or entities are a Significant Obligor and either (i) Exchange Act Filings are required to be made under applicable Legal Requirements or (ii) comparable information is required to otherwise be “available” to holders of the Securities under Regulation AB or applicable Legal Requirements.

(f) Any financial data or financial statements provided pursuant to this Section 9.1 shall be furnished to Lender within the following time periods:

(i) with respect to information requested in connection with the preparation of Disclosure Documents for a Securitization, within ten (10) Business Days after notice from Lender; and

(ii) with respect to ongoing information required under Sections 9.1(d) and (e) above, (A) not later than thirty (30) days after the end of each fiscal quarter of Borrower and (B) not later than seventy-five (75) days after the end of each Fiscal Year of Borrower.

 

97


(g) All financial data and financial statements provided by Borrower hereunder pursuant to Sections 9.1(c), (d), (e) and (f) hereof shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP, and shall meet the requirements of Regulation S-K or Regulation S-X, as applicable, Regulation AB, and any and all other applicable Legal Requirements. All financial statements relating to a Fiscal Year shall be audited by independent accountants of Borrower acceptable to Lender in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K, as applicable, Regulation AB, and all other applicable Legal Requirements, shall be accompanied by the manually executed report of the independent accountants thereon, which report shall meet the requirements of Regulation S-K or Regulation S-X, as applicable, Regulation AB, and all other applicable Legal Requirements, and shall be further accompanied by a manually executed consent of the independent accountants, in form and substance acceptable to Lender, to the inclusion of such financial statements in any Disclosure Document, any Exchange Act Filing or any report that is required to be made “available” to holders of the Securities under Regulation AB or applicable Legal Requirements and to the use of the name of such independent accountants and the reference to such independent accountants as “experts” in any Disclosure Document, any Exchange Act Filing or any report that is required to be made “available” to holders of the Securities under Regulation AB or applicable Legal Requirements, all of which shall be provided at the same time as the related financial statements are required to be provided. All other financial data and financial statements (audited or unaudited) provided by Borrower shall be accompanied by an Officer’s Certificate which shall state that such financial data and financial statements meet the requirements set forth in the first sentence of this paragraph.

(h) In the event Lender determines, in connection with a Securitization, that financial statements and financial data required in order to comply with Regulation AB or any amendment, modification or replacement thereto or any other Legal Requirements are other than as provided herein, then notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 9.1, Lender may request, and Borrower shall promptly provide, such other financial statements and financial data as Lender determines to be necessary or appropriate for such compliance.

(i) Without limiting the generality of Section 9.1(h) above, if requested by Lender, Borrower shall promptly provide Lender with any financial statements or financial, statistical, operating or other information as Lender shall determine to be required pursuant to Regulation AB or any amendment, modification or replacement thereto or any other Legal Requirements in connection with any Disclosure Document, any Exchange Act Filing or any report that is required to be made “available” to holders of the Securities under Regulation AB or applicable Legal Requirements or as shall otherwise be reasonably requested by Lender.

(j) Borrower agrees that Lender may disclose any information relating to Borrower, its Affiliates, the Property or any aspect of the Loan (including information provided by or on behalf of Borrower or any of its Affiliates to Lender) to the parties requesting such information and, if applicable, the NRSROs in connection with any Secondary Market Transaction. Borrower also understands that the findings and conclusions of any third-party due diligence report obtained by Lender or other Securitization Indemnified Parties may be made publicly available if required, and in the manner prescribed, by Section 15E(s)(4)(A) of the Exchange Act, any rules promulgated thereunder or any other applicable Legal Requirements.

 

98


(k) All costs and expenses incurred by Borrower, Guarantor and Lender in connection with this Section 9.1 (including, without limitation, the fees and expenses of the Rating Agencies) shall be paid by Borrower.

Section 9.2. Securitization Indemnification.

(a) Borrower understands that information provided to Lender by Borrower or its agents, counsel and representatives may be included in Disclosure Documents in connection with a Securitization and may also be included in filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and may be made available to investors or prospective investors in the Securities, the NRSROs and other advisory and service providers relating to a Securitization. In the event that any Disclosure Document is required to be revised prior to the sale of all Securities in connection with a Securitization, Borrower will cooperate with Lender (or, if applicable, the holder of the applicable interest in the Loan) in updating the Disclosure Document by providing all current information necessary to keep the Disclosure Document accurate and complete in all material respects.

(b) Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify Lender, UBSRESI, any Affiliate of UBSRESI that has filed any registration statement relating to the Securitization or has acted as the issuer, the sponsor or depositor in connection with a Securitization, any Affiliate of UBSRESI that acts as an underwriter, placement agent or initial purchaser of the Securities issued in connection with a Securitization, any other issuers, depositors, underwriters, placement agents or initial purchasers of the Securities issued in connection with a Securitization, and each of their respective directors, officers, partners, employees, representatives, agents and Affiliates, and each Person that controls any such Person within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (collectively, the “Securitization Indemnified Parties”) for any liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, costs and expenses (collectively, the “Securitization Indemnification Liabilities”) to which any Securitization Indemnified Party may become subject insofar as the Securitization Indemnification Liabilities arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the information provided to Lender by Borrower, any Affiliate of Borrower or any of their respective agents, counsel or representatives, (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated in such information or necessary in order to make the statements in such information, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and (iii) a breach of the representations and warranties made by Borrower in Section 3.1.34 of this Agreement. Borrower also agrees to reimburse each Securitization Indemnified Party for any legal or other costs and expenses reasonably incurred by such Securitization Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending the Securitization Indemnification Liabilities. Borrower’s liability under this paragraph will be limited to any such liability, obligation, loss, damage, penalty, action, judgment, suit, claim, cost or expense that arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or omission made therein in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished by or on behalf of Borrower in connection with the preparation of the Disclosure Documents or in connection with the underwriting or closing of the Loan (including, without limitation, financial statements of Borrower, operating statements and rent rolls with respect to the Property). This indemnity provision will be in addition to any obligation or liability which Borrower may otherwise have.

 

99


(c) In connection with Exchange Act Filings and information therein or other reports containing comparable information that are required to be made “available” to holders of the Securities under Regulation AB or applicable Legal Requirements, as it relates to the Property, Borrower, Guarantor, any Affiliate of Borrower or Guarantor, Manager or any other aspect of the Loan, Borrower agrees to (i) indemnify the Securitization Indemnified Parties for Securitization Indemnification Liabilities to which any Securitization Indemnified Party may become subject insofar as the Securitization Indemnification Liabilities arise out of, or are based upon, an untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon, and in conformity with, information furnished to Lender by or on behalf of Borrower in connection with the preparation of the Disclosure Document, in connection with the underwriting or closing of the Loan or any of the reports, statements or other information furnished by or on behalf of Borrower pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including financial statements of Borrower, operating statements and rent rolls with respect to the Property, and (ii) reimburse each Securitization Indemnified Party for any legal or other costs and expenses reasonably incurred by such Securitization Indemnified Party in connection with defending or investigating the Securitization Indemnification Liabilities.

(d) Promptly after receipt by a Securitization Indemnified Party of notice of any claim or the commencement of any action or suit, such Securitization Indemnified Party shall, if a claim for indemnification in respect thereof is to be made against Borrower, notify Borrower in writing of the claim or the commencement of such action or suit; provided, however, that the failure to notify Borrower shall not relieve Borrower from any liability which it may have under the indemnification provisions of this Section 9.2 except to the extent that it has been materially prejudiced by such failure and, provided further that the failure to notify Borrower shall not relieve Borrower from any liability which it may have to any Securitization Indemnified Party otherwise than under the provisions of this Section 9.2. If any such claim, action or suit shall be brought against any Securitization Indemnified Party, and it shall notify Borrower thereof, Borrower shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it wishes, assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Securitization Indemnified Party. After notice from Borrower to the applicable Securitization Indemnified Party of Borrower’s election to assume the defense of such claim, action or suit, Borrower shall not be liable to such Securitization Indemnified Party for any legal or other costs and expenses subsequently incurred by such Securitization Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof except as provided in the following sentence; provided, however, if the defendants in any such action or suit include both Borrower, on the one hand, and one or more Securitization Indemnified Parties on the other hand, and a Securitization Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded that there are legal defenses available to it and/or other Securitization Indemnified Parties that are different or in addition to those available to Borrower, the Securitization Indemnified Party or Parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to assert such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such action or suit on behalf of such Securitization Indemnified Party or Parties. The Securitization Indemnified Party shall instruct its counsel to maintain reasonably detailed billing records for fees and disbursements for which such Securitization Indemnified Party is seeking or intends to seek reimbursement hereunder and shall submit copies of such detailed billing records to substantiate that such

 

100


counsel’s fees and disbursements are related solely to the defense of a claim for which Borrower is required hereunder to indemnify such Securitization Indemnified Party. Borrower shall not be liable for the costs and expenses of more than one (1) such separate counsel unless a Securitization Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or additional to those available to another Securitization Indemnified Party.

(e) Without the prior written consent of the applicable Securitization Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), Borrower shall not settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification may be sought hereunder (whether or not any Securitization Indemnified Party is an actual or potential party to such claim, action, suit or proceeding) unless Borrower shall have given the applicable Securitization Indemnified Party reasonable prior notice thereof and shall have obtained an unconditional release of each Securitization Indemnified Party from all Securitization Indemnification Liabilities arising out of or relating to such claim, action, suit or proceeding. As long as Borrower has complied with its obligations to defend and indemnify hereunder, Borrower shall not be liable for any settlement made by any Securitization Indemnified Party without the consent of Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

(f) Borrower agrees that if any indemnification or reimbursement sought pursuant to this Section 9.2 is finally judicially determined to be unavailable for any reason or is insufficient to hold any Securitization Indemnified Party harmless (with respect only to the Securitization Indemnification Liabilities that are the subject of this Section 9.2), then Borrower, on the one hand, and such Securitization Indemnified Party, on the other hand, shall contribute to the Securitization Indemnification Liabilities for which such indemnification or reimbursement is held unavailable or is insufficient: (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits to Borrower, on the one hand, and such Securitization Indemnified Party, on the other hand, from the transactions to which such indemnification or reimbursement relates; or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative faults of Borrower, on the one hand, and all Securitization Indemnified Parties, on the other hand, as well as any other equitable considerations. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 9.2, (A) no Person found liable for a fraudulent misrepresentation shall be entitled to contribution from any other Person who is not also found liable for such fraudulent misrepresentation, and (B) Borrower agrees that in no event shall the amount to be contributed by the Securitization Indemnified Parties collectively pursuant to this Section 9.2(f) exceed the amount of the fees actually received by the Securitization Indemnified Parties in connection with the closing of the Loan.

(g) Borrower agrees that the indemnification, contribution and reimbursement obligations set forth in this Section 9.2 shall apply whether or not any Securitization Indemnified Party is a formal party to any claim, action, suit or proceeding. Borrower further agrees that the Securitization Indemnified Parties are intended third party beneficiaries under this Section 9.2.

 

101


(h) The liabilities and obligations of Borrower and the Securitization Indemnified Parties under this Section 9.2 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the satisfaction and discharge of the Debt.

(b) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default described in Section 10.1(a)(vi), (vii) or (viii) above) and at any time thereafter, Lender may, in addition to any other rights or remedies available to it pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or at law or in equity, take such action, without notice or demand, that Lender deems advisable to protect and enforce its rights against Borrower and in and to the Property, including, without limitation, declaring the Debt to be immediately due and payable, and Lender may enforce or avail itself of any or all rights or remedies provided in the Loan Documents against Borrower and the Property, including, without limitation, all rights or remedies available at law or in equity; and upon any Event of Default described in Section 10.1(a)(vi), (vii) or (viii) above, the Debt shall immediately and automatically become due and payable, without notice or demand, and Borrower hereby expressly waives any such notice or demand, anything contained herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding.

 

104


Section 10.2. Remedies.

(a) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, all or any one or more of the rights, powers, privileges and other remedies available to Lender against Borrower under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents executed and delivered by, or applicable to, Borrower or at law or in equity may be exercised by Lender at any time and from time to time, whether or not all or any portion of the Debt shall be declared due and payable, and whether or not Lender shall have commenced any foreclosure proceeding or initiated or taken other action for the enforcement of its rights and remedies under any of the Loan Documents with respect to all or any part of the Property. Any such actions taken by Lender shall be cumulative and concurrent and may be pursued independently, singly, successively, together or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Lender may determine in its sole and absolute discretion, to the fullest extent permitted by law, without impairing or otherwise affecting the other rights and remedies of Lender permitted by law, equity or contract or as set forth herein or in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Borrower agrees that, if an Event of Default has occurred and remains outstanding, (i) Lender is not subject to any “one action” or “election of remedies” law or rule, and (ii) all liens and other rights, remedies or privileges provided to Lender shall remain in full force and effect until Lender has exhausted all of its rights and remedies against the Property and the Security Instrument has been foreclosed, sold and/or otherwise realized upon in satisfaction of the Obligations or the Debt has been paid in full.

(b) With respect to Borrower and the Property, nothing contained herein or in any other Loan Document shall be construed as requiring Lender to resort to the Property for the satisfaction of any of the Debt in any order, proportion or priority, and Lender may seek satisfaction out of the Property, or any part thereof, in its sole and absolute discretion in respect of the Debt. In addition, Lender shall have the right from time to time to partially foreclose the Security Instrument in any manner and for any amounts secured by the Security Instrument then due and payable as determined by Lender in its sole and absolute discretion including, without limitation, the following circumstances: (i) in the event Borrower defaults beyond any applicable grace period in the payment of one or more scheduled payments of principal and interest, Lender may foreclose the Security Instrument to recover such delinquent payments or (ii) in the event Lender elects to accelerate less than the entire Outstanding Principal Balance, Lender may foreclose the Security Instrument to recover so much of the principal balance of the Loan as Lender may accelerate and such other sums secured by the Security Instrument as Lender may elect. Notwithstanding one or more partial foreclosures, the Property shall remain subject to the Security Instrument to secure payment of sums secured by the Security Instrument and not previously recovered.

(c) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (but without limiting Lender’s rights under Section 9.1, Section 11.29 or Section 11.30 hereof), Lender shall have the right from time to time to sever the Note and the other Loan Documents into one or more separate notes, mortgages and other security documents (collectively, the “Severed Loan Documents”) in such denominations and priority as Lender shall determine in its sole and absolute discretion for purposes of evidencing and enforcing its rights and remedies provided hereunder. Borrower shall execute and deliver to Lender from time to time, promptly after the request of Lender, a severance agreement and such other documents as Lender shall request in order to effect the

 

105


severance described in the preceding sentence, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender. Borrower hereby absolutely and irrevocably appoints Lender as its true and lawful attorney, coupled with an interest, in its name and stead to make and execute all documents necessary or desirable to effect the aforesaid severance, Borrower ratifying all that its said attorney shall do by virtue thereof; provided, however, Lender shall not make or execute any such documents under such power until three (3) days after notice has been given to Borrower by Lender of Lender’s intent to exercise its rights under such power. Borrower shall be obligated to pay any costs or expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, execution, recording or filing of the Severed Loan Documents and other matters and documentation in connection therewith. The Severed Loan Documents shall not contain any representations, warranties or covenants not contained in the Loan Documents and any such representations and warranties contained in the Severed Loan Documents will be given by Borrower only as of the Closing Date.

(d) Any amounts recovered from the Property or any other collateral for the Loan after the occurrence of an Event of Default may be applied by Lender toward the payment of any principal and/or interest of the Loan and/or any other amounts due under the Loan Documents in such order, proportion and priority as Lender in its sole and absolute discretion shall determine.

Section 10.3. Right to Cure Defaults.

Lender may, but without any obligation to do so and without notice to or demand on Borrower and without releasing Borrower from any obligation hereunder or under the other Loan Documents or being deemed to have cured any Event of Default, make, do or perform any obligation of Borrower hereunder or under the other Loan Documents in such manner and to such extent as Lender may deem necessary. Lender is authorized to enter upon the Property for such purposes, or appear in, defend, or bring any action or proceeding to protect its interest in the Property for such purposes. All costs and expenses incurred by Lender in remedying or attempting to remedy such Event of Default or such other breach or default by Borrower or in appearing in, defending, or bringing any action or proceeding shall bear interest at the Default Rate from the date such costs and expenses were incurred to the date reimbursement payment is received by Lender. All such costs and expenses incurred by Lender, together with interest thereon calculated at the Default Rate, shall be deemed to constitute a portion of the Obligations, shall be secured by the liens and security interests provided to Lender under the Loan Documents and shall be immediately due and payable upon demand by Lender therefore.

Section 10.4. Remedies Cumulative.

The rights, powers and remedies of Lender under this Agreement shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any other right, power or remedy which Lender may have against Borrower pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or existing at law or in equity or otherwise. Lender’s rights, powers and remedies may be pursued singly, concurrently or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Lender may determine in Lender’s sole and absolute discretion. No delay or omission to exercise any right, power or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall impair any such right, power or remedy or shall be construed as a waiver thereof, but any such right, power or remedy may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be

 

106


deemed expedient. A waiver of one Default or Event of Default shall not be construed to be a waiver of any subsequent Default or Event of Default or to impair any right, power or remedy consequent thereon.

XI. MISCELLANEOUS

Section 11.1. Successors and Assigns.

This Agreement and all agreements, covenants, representations and warranties in this Agreement, by or on behalf of Borrower, shall inure to the benefit of the legal representatives, successors and assigns of Lender.

Section 11.2. Lender’s Discretion.

Whenever pursuant to this Agreement Lender exercises any right given to it to approve or disapprove, or any arrangement or term is to be satisfactory to Lender, the decision of Lender to approve or disapprove or to decide whether arrangements or terms are satisfactory or not satisfactory shall (except as is otherwise specifically herein provided) be in the sole discretion of Lender and shall be final and conclusive. Prior to a Securitization, whenever pursuant to this Agreement the Rating Agencies are given any right to approve or disapprove, or any arrangement or term is to be satisfactory to the Rating Agencies, the decision of Lender to approve or disapprove or to decide whether arrangements or terms are satisfactory or not satisfactory, based upon Lender’s determination of Rating Agency criteria, shall be substituted therefore.

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

Section 11.9. Severability.

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

Section 11.10. Preferences.

Lender shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply or reverse and reapply any and all payments by Borrower to any portion of the Obligations. To the extent Borrower makes any payment to Lender, which payment or proceeds or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other Person under any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then, to the extent of such payment or proceeds received, the Obligations or a portion thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continue in full force and effect, as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by Lender.

Section 11.11. Waiver of Notice.

Borrower shall not be entitled to any notices of any nature whatsoever from Lender except with respect to matters for which this Agreement or the other Loan Documents specifically and expressly provide for the giving of notice by Lender to Borrower and except with respect to matters for which Borrower is not, pursuant to the applicable Legal Requirements, permitted to waive the giving of notice. Borrower hereby expressly waives the right to receive any notice from Lender with respect to any matter for which this Agreement or the other Loan Documents do not specifically and expressly provide for the giving of notice by Lender to Borrower.

Section 11.12. Remedies of Borrower.

In the event that a claim or adjudication is made that Lender or its agents have acted unreasonably or unreasonably delayed acting in any case where, by law or under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, Lender or such agent, as the case may be, has an obligation to act reasonably or promptly, Borrower agrees that neither Lender nor its agents shall be liable for any monetary damages, and Borrower’s sole remedy shall be limited to commencing an action seeking injunctive relief or declaratory judgment. The parties hereto agree that any action or proceeding to determine whether Lender or its agent has acted reasonably shall be determined by an action seeking declaratory judgment.

 

111


Section 11.13. Expenses; Indemnity.

(a) Borrower shall pay or, if Borrower fails to pay, reimburse Lender upon receipt of notice from Lender, for all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by Lender in connection with (i) Borrower’s ongoing performance of and compliance with Borrower’s agreements and covenants contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents on its part to be performed or complied with after the Closing Date, including, without limitation, confirming compliance with environmental and insurance requirements; (ii) Lender’s ongoing performance of and compliance with all agreements and covenants contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents on its part to be performed or complied with after the Closing Date; (iii) the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and administration of any consents, amendments, waivers or other modifications to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other documents or matters requested by Borrower; (iv) the filing and recording fees and expenses, title insurance and reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for providing to Lender all required legal opinions, and other similar expenses incurred, in creating and perfecting the Liens in favor of Lender pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; (v) enforcing or preserving any rights in response to third party claims or the prosecuting or defending of any action or proceeding or other litigation or otherwise, in each case against, under or affecting Borrower, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, the Property, or any other security given for the Loan; (vi) enforcing any obligations of, or collecting any payments due from, Borrower or Guarantor under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or with respect to the Property or in connection with any refinancing or restructuring of the credit arrangements provided under this Agreement in the nature of a “work-out” or of any insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings; and (vii) securing Borrower’s compliance with any requests made by Lender pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, including Section 9.1, Section 11.29 or Section 11.30 hereof; provided, however, that Borrower shall not be liable for the payment of any such costs and expenses to the extent the same arise by reason of the gross negligence, illegal acts, fraud or willful misconduct of Lender. At Lender’s discretion, any such costs and expenses due and payable to Lender may be paid to Lender from any amounts in the Clearing Account or the Cash Management Account.

(b) Borrower shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Lender Indemnitees from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for any Lender Indemnitee in connection with any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding commenced or threatened, whether or not such Lender Indemnitee shall be designated a party thereto), that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against any Lender Indemnitee in any manner relating to or arising out of (i) any breach by Borrower of its obligations under, or any misrepresentation by Borrower contained in, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, (ii) any misstatement or omission in any report, certificate, financial statement, other agreement, instrument or document or other materials or information provided by or on behalf of Borrower pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or in connection with the Loan, or (iii) the use or intended use of the proceeds of the Loan (collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”); provided, however, that Borrower shall not have any obligation to the Lender Indemnitees hereunder to the extent that such Indemnified Liabilities arise from the gross negligence, illegal acts, fraud or willful misconduct of the Lender Indemnitees. To the extent

 

112


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

(c) Borrower shall pay for or, if Borrower fails to pay, to reimburse Lender for, any fees, costs and expenses of any Rating Agency in connection with any consent, approval, waiver or confirmation obtained from such Rating Agency pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document and Lender shall be entitled to require payment of such fees, costs and expenses as a condition precedent to the obtaining of any such consent, approval, waiver or confirmation.

Section 11.14. Schedules Incorporated.

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

Section 11.15. Offsets, Counterclaims and Defenses.

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

Section 11.16. No Joint Venture or Partnership.

Borrower and Lender intend that the relationships created hereunder and under the other Loan Documents be solely that of borrower and lender. Nothing herein or therein is intended to create a joint venture, partnership, tenancy-in-common, or joint tenancy relationship between Borrower and Lender or to grant Lender any interest in the Property other than that of mortgagee, beneficiary or lender.

Section 11.17. Publicity.

Except for disclosures and reporting required by applicable Legal Requirements and communications with shareholders of Guarantor or other constituent entities of Borrower in the ordinary course of business, all news releases, publicity or advertising by Borrower or its Affiliates through any media which refers to the Loan, the Loan Documents or Lender or any of its Affiliates shall be subject to the prior approval of Lender, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed and, upon submission to Lender or Servicer, if not approved within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of such submission, such approval shall be deemed granted. Upon the prior approval of Borrower, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed and, upon submission to Borrower of a request for such approval, if not approved within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of such submission, such approval shall be deemed granted, Lender may issue press releases, advertisements and other promotional materials in connection

 

113


with Lender’s own promotional and marketing activities, and such materials may describe the Loan in general terms or in detail and Lender’s participation therein in the Loan; provided, however, Borrower’s prior approval shall not be required for the issuance by Lender of any information regarding the Loan in connection with a Secondary Market Transaction.

Section 11.18. Waiver of Marshalling of Assets.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Borrower, for itself and its successors and assigns, waives all rights to a marshalling of the assets of Borrower, Borrower’s partners, members and others with interests in Borrower, and of the Property, and agrees not to assert any right under any laws pertaining to the marshalling of assets, the sale in inverse order of alienation, homestead exemption, the administration of estates of decedents, or any other matters whatsoever to defeat, reduce or affect the right of Lender under the Loan Documents to a sale of the Property for the collection of the Debt without any prior or different resort for collection or of the right of Lender to the payment of the Debt out of the net proceeds of the Property in preference to every other claimant whatsoever.

Section 11.19. Waiver of Offsets/Defenses/Counterclaims.

Borrower hereby waives the right to assert a counterclaim, other than a compulsory counterclaim, in any action or proceeding brought against it by Lender or its agents or otherwise to offset any obligations to make the payments required by the Loan Documents. No failure by Lender to perform any of its obligations hereunder shall be a valid defense to, or result in any offset against, any payments which Borrower is obligated to make under any of the Loan Documents.

Section 11.20. Conflict; Construction of Documents; Reliance.

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

 

114


Section 11.21. Brokers and Financial Advisors.

Borrower hereby represents that it has dealt with no financial advisors, brokers, underwriters, placement agents, agents or finders in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Borrower shall indemnify, defend and hold Lender harmless from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, claims, costs and expenses of any kind (including Lender’s attorneys’ fees and expenses) in any way relating to or arising from a claim by any Person that such Person acted on behalf of Borrower or Lender in connection with the transactions contemplated herein. The provisions of this Section 11.21 shall survive the expiration and termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Debt.

Section 11.22. Exculpation.

Subject to the qualifications below, Lender shall not enforce the liability and obligation of Borrower to perform and observe the obligations contained in this Agreement, the Note, the Security Instrument or the other Loan Documents by any action or proceeding wherein a money judgment shall be sought against Borrower, except that Lender may bring a foreclosure action, an action for specific performance or any other appropriate action or proceeding to enable Lender to enforce and realize upon its interest under this Agreement, the Note, the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents, or in the Property, the Rents, or any other collateral given to Lender pursuant to the Loan Documents; provided, however, that, except as specifically provided herein, any judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be enforceable against Borrower only to the extent of Borrower’s interest in the Property, in the Rents, and in any other collateral given to Lender, and Lender, by accepting this Agreement, the Note, the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents, agrees that it shall not sue for, seek or demand any deficiency judgment against Borrower in any such action or proceeding under or by reason of or under or in connection with this Agreement, the Note, the Security Instrument or the other Loan Documents. The provisions of this Section 11.22 shall not, however, (a) constitute a waiver, release or impairment of any obligation evidenced or secured by any of the Loan Documents; (b) impair the right of Lender to name Borrower as a party defendant in any action or suit for foreclosure and sale under the Security Instrument; (c) affect the validity or enforceability of any guaranty or indemnity made in connection with the Loan or any of the rights and remedies of Lender thereunder; (d) impair the right of Lender to obtain the appointment of a receiver; (e) impair the enforcement of the Assignment of Leases; (f) constitute a prohibition against Lender to seek a deficiency judgment against Borrower in order to fully realize the security granted by the Security Instrument or to commence any other appropriate action or proceeding in order for Lender to exercise its rights and remedies against the Property, the Rents or any other collateral given to Lender pursuant to the Loan Documents; or (g) constitute a waiver of the right of Lender to enforce the liability and obligation of Borrower, by money judgment or otherwise, to the extent of any loss, damage, cost, expense, liability, claim or other obligation incurred by Lender (including attorneys’ fees and costs reasonably incurred) arising out of or in connection with, and Borrower shall be personally liable for, the following (all such liability and obligation of Borrower for any or all of the following being referred to herein as the “Borrower’s Recourse Liabilities”):

(i) fraud, intentional or material misrepresentation by Borrower, Guarantor or any Affiliate of Borrower or Guarantor in connection with the Loan;

(xv) the first full monthly payment of principal and interest on the Note is not paid when due.

 

116


Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Note or any of the other Loan Documents, (A) Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any right which Lender may have under Section 506(a), 506(b) or 1111(b) or any other provisions of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code or any other Bankruptcy Law to file a claim for the full amount of the Debt or to require that all collateral shall continue to secure all of the Obligations in accordance with the Loan Documents, and (B) the Debt shall be fully recourse to Borrower in the event that any of the following occurs (each, a “Springing Recourse Event”): (1) fails to maintain its status as a single purpose entity and such failure results in the substantive consolidation of Borrower with any other Person; (2) Borrower fails to obtain Lender’s prior consent to any Indebtedness or voluntary Lien encumbering the Property or any part thereof or interest therein except to the extent expressly permitted by this Agreement; (3) Borrower fails to obtain Lender’s prior consent to any Transfer except to the extent expressly permitted by this Agreement or the Security Instrument; (4) Borrower files a voluntary petition under the Bankruptcy Law; (5) an Affiliate, officer, director, or representative which controls, directly or indirectly, Borrower files, or joins in the filing of, an involuntary petition against Borrower under the Bankruptcy Law, or solicits or causes to be solicited petitioning creditors for any involuntary petition against Borrower from any Person; (6) Borrower files an answer consenting to or otherwise acquiescing in or joining in any involuntary petition filed against it by any other Person under the Bankruptcy Law, or solicits or causes to be solicited petitioning creditors for any involuntary petition against Borrower from any Person; (7) any Affiliate, officer, director, or representative which controls, directly or indirectly, Borrower consents to or acquiesces in or joins in an application for the appointment of a custodian, receiver, trustee, or examiner for Borrower or any portion of the Property; or (8) Borrower makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or admits, in writing or in any action or proceeding, its insolvency or inability to pay its debts as they become due.

As used in this Section 11.22, the term “control” means the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management, policies or activities of a Person, whether through ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise and the terms “controlled” and “controlling” shall have correlative meanings.

Section 11.23. Prior Agreements.

This Agreement and the other Loan Documents contain the entire agreement of the parties hereto and thereto in respect of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and all prior agreements among or between such parties, whether oral or written, including, without limitation, the Summary of Preliminary Terms dated January 16, 2013 between Sponsor and Lender, are superseded by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

 

117


Section 11.24. Servicer.

(a) At the option of Lender, the Loan may be serviced by a master servicer, primary servicer, special servicer and/or trustee (any such master servicer, primary servicer, special servicer and trustee, together with its agents, nominees or designees, are collectively referred to herein as “Servicer”) selected by Lender and Lender may delegate all or any portion of its responsibilities under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to Servicer pursuant to a pooling and servicing agreement, servicing agreement, special servicing agreement and/or other agreement providing for the servicing of one (1) or more mortgage loans (collectively, the “Servicing Agreement”) between Lender and Servicer. Borrower shall be responsible for (i) any reasonable set-up fees or any other initial costs and expenses relating to or arising under the Servicing Agreement and (ii) any fees and expenses of Servicer (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and disbursements) in connection with any release of the Property, any prepayment, defeasance, assumption, amendment or modification of the Loan, any documents or matters requested by Borrower, special servicing or work-out of the Loan or enforcement of the Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Servicer shall be entitled to reimbursement of costs and expenses as and to the same extent (but without duplication) as Lender is entitled thereto under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

(b) Upon notice thereof from Lender, Servicer shall have the right to exercise all rights of Lender and enforce all obligations of Borrower and Guarantor pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

(c) Provided Borrower shall have been given notice of Servicer’s address by Lender, Borrower shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Servicer duplicate originals of all notices and other documents and instruments which Borrower or Guarantor may or shall be required to deliver to Lender pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (and no delivery of such notices or other documents and instruments by Borrower or Guarantor shall be of any force or effect unless delivered to Lender and Servicer as provided above).

Section 11.25. Joint and Several Liability.

If Borrower consists of more than one (1) Person, the representations, warranties, covenants, obligations and liabilities of each Person shall be joint and several.

118


Section 11.27. Intentionally Omitted.

Section 11.28. Set-Off.

In addition to any other rights and remedies of Lender provided by the Loan Documents and by law, Lender shall have the right, without prior notice to Borrower, any such notice being expressly waived by Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon any amount becoming due and payable by Borrower hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) to set-off and appropriate and apply against such amount any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by Lender or any Affiliate of Lender to or for the credit or the account of Borrower. Lender agrees to promptly notify Borrower after any such set-off and application made by Lender; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.

Section 11.29. Component Notes.

Without in any way limiting Lender’s other rights under this Agreement or any other Loan Document (including Lender’s rights under Section 9.1 and Section 11.30 hereof), Lender shall have the right, at any time and in its sole and absolute discretion, to require Borrower to execute and deliver new component notes (including senior and junior notes) to replace the original note or modify the original note to reflect multiple components of the Loan, which notes may be paid in such order of priority as may be designated by Lender, provided that (a) the aggregate principal amount of such component notes shall, on the date created, equal the Outstanding Principal Balance immediately prior to the creation of such component notes, (b) the weighted average interest rate of all such component notes shall, on the date created, equal the interest rate which was applicable to the Loan immediately prior to the creation of such component notes, and (c) the scheduled debt service payments on all such component notes shall, on the date created, equal the scheduled debt service payments under the Loan immediately prior to the creation of such component notes. Borrower, at its cost and expense, shall cooperate with all reasonable requests of Lender in order to establish the component notes and shall execute and deliver, and cause to be executed and delivered, such documents as shall reasonably be required by Lender or any Rating Agency in connection therewith, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender and, if applicable, satisfactory to such Rating Agency (including, without limitation, the severance of security documents). Borrower hereby absolutely and irrevocably appoints Lender as its true and lawful attorney, coupled with an interest, in its name and stead to make and execute all documents necessary or desirable to establish the component notes as described in this Section 11.29, Borrower ratifying all that its said attorney shall do by virtue thereof; provided, however, Lender shall not make or execute any such documents under such power until three (3) days after notice has been given to Borrower by Lender of Lender’s intent to exercise its rights under such power. Lender shall pay all costs and expenses in connection with the creation of the component notes and all requirements relating thereto.

 

119


Section 11.30. Mezzanine Loan.

Without in any way limiting Lender’s other rights under this Agreement or any other Loan Document (including Lender’s rights under Section 9.1 and Section 11.29 hereof), Lender shall have the right (the “Mezzanine Option”) at any time, in its sole and absolute discretion, to divide the Loan into two parts: a mortgage loan (the “Mortgage Loan”) and one or more mezzanine loans (each individually, a “Mezzanine Loan”). In effectuating the foregoing, Lender (in its capacity as the lender under the Mezzanine Loans, “Mezzanine Lender”) will make one or more mezzanine loans to single purpose, bankruptcy remote entities that own, directly or indirectly, all of the legal, beneficial and economic interests in Borrower (each individually, a “Mezzanine Borrower”) in the amount of the related Mezzanine Loan; each Mezzanine Borrower will contribute the amount of its Mezzanine Loan and the proceeds of any junior Mezzanine Loan contributed to such Mezzanine Borrower by its immediately junior Mezzanine Borrower to Borrower (Borrower, in its capacity as the borrower under the Mortgage Loan, “Mortgage Borrower”) or to its immediately senior Mezzanine Borrower, as applicable; and Mortgage Borrower will apply the contribution to pay down the Loan to the amount of the Mortgage Loan. In connection with the Mezzanine Option:

(a) Lender shall have the right to establish different interest rates and debt service payments for the Mortgage Loan and the Mezzanine Loans and to require the payment of the Mortgage Loan and the Mezzanine Loans in such order of priority as may be designated by Lender; provided, that (i) the aggregate principal amount of the Mortgage Loan and the Mezzanine Loans shall equal the Outstanding Principal Balance immediately prior to the creation of the Mortgage Loan and the Mezzanine Loans, (ii) the weighted average interest rate of the Mortgage Loan and the Mezzanine Loans shall, on the date created, equal the interest rate which was applicable to the Loan immediately prior to creation of the Mortgage Loan and the Mezzanine Loans and (iii) the scheduled debt service payments on the Mortgage Loan and the Mezzanine Loans shall, on the date created, equal the scheduled debt service payments under the Loan immediately prior to creation of the Mortgage Loan and the Mezzanine Loans.

(b) Each Mezzanine Borrower shall be a single purpose, bankruptcy remote entity under the criteria established by the Rating Agencies and shall own directly one hundred percent (100%) of the legal, beneficial and economic interests in Mortgage Borrower or its immediately senior Mezzanine Borrower, as applicable. The security for any Mezzanine Loan shall include a pledge by the related Mezzanine Borrower of one hundred percent (100%) of the direct ownership interests in Mortgage Borrower or its immediately senior Mezzanine Borrower, as applicable.

(c) Borrower, Mortgage Borrower and Mezzanine Borrowers shall cooperate with all reasonable requests of Lender in order to convert the Loan into the Mortgage Loan and the Mezzanine Loans and shall execute and deliver, and cause to be executed and delivered, such documents as shall reasonably be required by Lender or any Rating Agency in connection therewith, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender and, if applicable, satisfactory to such Rating Agency (including, without limitation, the delivery of bankruptcy non-consolidation opinions and the modification of organizational documents and loan documents). Each of Borrower, Mortgage Borrower and Mezzanine Borrowers hereby absolutely and irrevocably appoints Lender as its true and lawful attorney, coupled with an

 

120


interest, in its name and stead to make and execute all documents necessary or desirable to convert the Loan as described in this Section 11.30, each of Borrower, Mortgage Borrower and Mezzanine Borrowers ratifying all that its said attorney shall do by virtue thereof; provided, however, Lender shall not make or execute any such documents under such power until three (3) days after notice has been given to Borrower by Lender of Lender’s intent to exercise its rights under such power. Lender shall pay all costs and expenses in connection with the creation of the Mortgage Loan and the Mezzanine Loans and all requirements relating thereto.

Section 11.31. Approvals; Third Parties; Conditions.

(a) All approval rights retained or exercised by Lender with respect to any Leases, contracts, plans, studies and other matters are solely to facilitate Lender’s credit underwriting, and shall not be deemed or construed as a determination that Lender has passed on the adequacy thereof for any other purpose and may not be relied upon by Borrower or any other Person.

(b) This Agreement and the other Loan Documents are for the sole and exclusive use of Borrower and Lender and may not be enforced, nor relied upon, by any other Person. Nothing contained in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to confer upon any Person other than Borrower and Lender any right to insist upon or to enforce the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants and conditions contained herein or therein. All conditions to the obligations of Lender hereunder or under the other Loan Documents are imposed solely and exclusively for the benefit of Lender and no other Person shall have standing to require satisfaction of such conditions or be entitled to assume that Lender will refuse to make the Loan (or, if applicable, make any advances) or otherwise perform or satisfy such obligations in the absence of strict compliance with any or all of such conditions and no other Person shall under any circumstances be deemed to be a beneficiary of such conditions, any or all of which may be freely waived in whole or in part by Lender at any time in Lender’s sole and absolute discretion.

Section 11.32. Limitation on Liability of Lender’s Officers, Employees, etc.

Any obligation or liability whatsoever of Lender which may arise at any time under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be satisfied, if at all, out of Lender’s interest in the Property only. No such obligation or liability shall be personally binding upon, nor shall resort for the enforcement thereof be had to, any other asset or property of Lender or the asset or property of any of Lender’s shareholders, directors, officers, employees or agents, regardless of whether such obligation or liability is in the nature of contract, tort or otherwise.

Section 11.33. Certain Additional Rights of Lender (VCOC).

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Lender shall have:

(a) the right to routinely consult with and advise Borrower’s management regarding the significant business activities and business and financial developments of Borrower; provided, however, that such consultations shall not include discussions of environmental compliance programs or disposal of Hazardous Substances. Consultation meetings should occur on a regular basis (no less frequently than quarterly) with Lender having the right to call special meetings at any reasonable times upon reasonable notice;

 

121


(b) the right, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, to examine the books and records of Borrower at any reasonable times upon reasonable notice;

(c) the right, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, including, without limitation, Section 4.1.6 hereof, to receive monthly, quarterly and year end financial reports, including balance sheets, statements of income, shareholder’s equity and cash flow, a management report and schedules of outstanding indebtedness; and

(d) the right, without restricting any other rights of Lender under this Agreement (including any similar right), to approve any acquisition by Borrower of any other significant property (other than personal property required for the day to day operation of the Property).

The rights described above in this Section 11.33 may be exercised by any entity which owns and controls, directly or indirectly, substantially all of the interests in Lender. As used in this Section 11.33, the term “control” means the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management, policies or activities of a Person, whether through ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise and the terms “controlled” and “controlling” shall have correlative meanings.

support with respect thereto) provided that (i) such action (taking into account, in the case of a termination, reduction in rent, surrender of space or shortening of term, the planned alternative use of the affected space) does not have a materially adverse effect on the value of the Property taken as a whole, (ii) such action is in the normal course of business and in a manner which is consistent with sound and customary leasing and management practices for similar properties in the community in which the Property is located, and (iii) such Lease, as amended, modified or waived, is otherwise in compliance with the requirements of this Agreement and any subordination agreement binding upon Lender with respect to such Lease.

In the event that Lender fails to respond to any such request requiring Lender’s approval within such ten (10) Business Day period, Borrower shall provide Lender with an additional notice and request for approval. If Lender does not respond to such subsequent notice and request for approval in writing rejecting such request (any such rejection stating with reasonable particularity the reasons for such rejection), within five (5) Business Days of such subsequent request, Lender shall be deemed to have approved such request.

(ii) commercial general liability insurance against claims for personal injury, bodily injury, death or property damage occurring upon, in or about the Property, with such insurance (A) to be on the so-called “occurrence” form with a general aggregate limit of not less than $2,000,000 and a per occurrence limit of not less than $1,000,000; (B) to continue at not less than the aforesaid limit until required to be changed by Lender in writing by reason of changed economic conditions making such protection inadequate; and (C) to cover at least the following hazards: (1) premises and operations; (2) products and completed operations; (3) independent contractors; and (4) contractual liability;

 

-56-


(iii) loss of rents insurance or business income insurance, as applicable, (A) with loss payable to Lender; (B) covering all risks required to be covered by the insurance provided for in subsection (i) above; and (C) which provides that after the physical loss to the Improvements and Personal Property occurs, the loss of rents or income, as applicable, will be insured until completion of Restoration or the expiration of eighteen (18) months, whichever first occurs, and notwithstanding that the policy may expire prior to the end of such period; and (D) which contains an extended period of indemnity endorsement which provides that after the physical loss to the Improvements and Personal Property has been repaired, the continued loss of income will be insured until such income either returns to the same level it was at prior to the loss, or the expiration of twelve (12) months from the date that the Property is repaired or replaced and operations are resumed, whichever first occurs, and notwithstanding that the policy may expire prior to the end of such period. For hotels, motels, health care, and other property types without a standard rent roll, the amount of business income insurance required shall be not less than eighteen (18) months of debt service, taxes, insurance, and other fixed expenses. The amount of such loss of rents or business income insurance, as applicable, shall be determined prior to the date hereof and at least once each year thereafter based on Borrower’s reasonable estimate of the gross income from the Property for the succeeding period of coverage as required above. All proceeds payable to Lender pursuant to this subsection shall be held by Lender and shall be applied to the obligations secured by the Loan Documents from time to time due and payable hereunder and under the Note; provided, however, that nothing herein contained shall be deemed to relieve Borrower of its obligations to pay the obligations secured by the Loan Documents on the respective dates of payment provided for in the Note, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents except to the extent such amounts are actually paid out of the proceeds of such loss of rents or business income insurance, as applicable;

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

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

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

 

-57-


(vii) excess liability insurance in an amount not less than $10,000,000 per occurrence on terms consistent with the commercial general liability insurance required under subsection (ii) above; and

(viii) upon sixty (60) days’ written notice, such other reasonable insurance and in such reasonable amounts as Lender from time to time may reasonably request against such other insurable hazards (including, but not limited to, sinkhole, mine subsidence, mold, spores or fungus) which at the time are commonly insured against for property similar to the Property located in or around the region in which the Property is located.

(b) Subject to sub-section (g) below, all insurance provided for in Section 8.1(a) shall be obtained under valid and enforceable policies (collectively, the “Policies” or in the singular, the “Policy”), and shall be subject to the approval of Lender as to insurance companies, amounts, deductibles, loss payees and insureds. The Policies shall be issued by financially sound and responsible insurance companies authorized to do business in the State and having a claims paying ability rating of “A-” or better by S&P (and the equivalent ratings for Moodys and Fitch) or such other ratings approved by Lender. The Policies described in Section 8.1(a) shall designate Lender and its successors and assigns as additional insureds, mortgagees and/or loss payee as deemed appropriate by Lender. To the extent such Policies are not available as of the Closing Date, Borrower shall deliver to Lender prior to the Closing Date an Acord 28 or similar certificate of insurance evidencing the coverages and amounts required hereunder and, upon request of Lender as soon as available after the Closing Date, certified copies of all Policies. Not less than ten (10) days prior to the expiration dates of any insurance coverage in place with respect to the Property, Borrower shall deliver to Lender an Acord 28 or similar certificate, accompanied by evidence satisfactory to Lender of payment of the premiums due in connection therewith (the “Insurance Premiums”), and, as soon as available thereafter, certified copies of all renewal Policies.

(c) Subject to sub-section (g) below, any blanket insurance Policy shall provide the same protection as would a separate Policy insuring only the Property in compliance with the provisions of Section 8.1(a) hereof; provided, however, any blanket insurance policy that does not specifically allocate to the Property the amount of coverage from time to time required hereunder shall be subject to Lender’s reasonable approval after taking into account, among other things, the amount, location, number and type of properties covered by such blanket insurance policy.

(d) Subject to sub-section (g) below, all Policies provided for or contemplated by Section 8.1(a), except for the Policy referenced in Section 8.1(a)(v), shall name Borrower as the insured and Lender as the additional insured, as its interests may appear, and in the case of property damage, boiler and machinery, flood and earthquake insurance, shall contain a standard non-contributing mortgagee clause in favor of Lender providing that the loss thereunder shall be payable to Lender.

(e) Subject to sub-section (g) below, all Policies provided for in Section 8.1(a) shall contain clauses or endorsements to the effect that:

(i) no act or negligence of Borrower, or anyone acting for Borrower, or of any Tenant or other occupant, or failure to comply with the provisions of any Policy, which might otherwise result in a forfeiture of the insurance or any part thereof, shall in any way affect the validity or enforceability of the insurance insofar as Lender is concerned;

 

-58-


(ii) the Policies shall not be materially changed (other than to increase the coverage provided thereby) or canceled without at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Lender and any other party named therein as an additional insured;

(iii) the issuers thereof shall give written notice to Lender if the Policies have not been renewed thirty (30) days prior to its expiration;

(iv) Lender shall not be liable for any Insurance Premiums thereon or subject to any assessments thereunder; and

(v) the Policies do not contain an exclusion for acts of terrorism.

(f) Subject to sub-section (g) below, if at any time Lender is not in receipt of written evidence that all insurance required hereunder is in full force and effect, Lender shall have the right, without notice to Borrower, to take such action as Lender deems necessary to protect its interest in the Property, including, without limitation, obtaining such insurance coverage as Lender in its sole discretion deems appropriate. All premiums incurred by Lender in connection with such action or in obtaining such insurance and keeping it in effect shall be paid by Borrower to Lender upon demand and, until paid, shall be secured by the Mortgage and shall bear interest at the Default Rate.

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, to the extent that any portion of the Property consisting of an entire building separate in all respect from any other building comprising part of the Property is occupied by a single Tenant and Tenant provides insurance satisfying the requirements of its Lease, such insurance shall satisfy or shall be deemed to satisfy, with respect to the corresponding Property, the requirements hereunder and the obligations of Borrower. In addition, provided no default shall exist under such Tenant’s Lease such that Borrower is pursuing the termination of the applicable Lease or Lender reasonably determines that such default has a material effect on Tenant’s ability to perform under such Tenant’s Lease and further provided that such Tenant (or the corporate guarantor of such Tenant’s Lease) shall maintain a credit rating issued by S&P of BBB- or better (or an equivalent rating issued by another nationally recognized Rating Agency reasonably acceptable to Lender), such Tenant shall be permitted to self-insure in accordance with its Lease, and such self-insurance shall be deemed to satisfy the requirements hereof. Lender acknowledges that it has received and reviewed the Existing Leases and the insurance in place as of the date hereof shall be deemed to satisfy the foregoing requirements of Section 8.1 as in effect on the date hereof.

Section 8.2. Casualty

If the Property shall be damaged or destroyed, in whole or in part, by fire or other casualty (a “Casualty”), Borrower shall give prompt notice of such damage to Lender and shall

 

-59-


promptly commence and diligently prosecute the Restoration of the Property in accordance with Section 8.4 or if Borrower is required to do so pursuant to the terms of any Lease. Borrower shall pay all costs of such Restoration whether or not such costs are covered by insurance. Lender may, but shall not be obligated to make proof of loss if not made promptly by Borrower. Borrower shall adjust all claims for Insurance Proceeds in consultation with, and approval of, Lender; provided, however, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Lender shall have the exclusive right to participate in the adjustment of all claims for Insurance Proceeds. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 8.2, to the extent any Lease remains in effect and the Tenant thereunder remains liable for the obligations under such Lease, the disposition of any amounts, awards or payments payable with respect to any Casualty relating to the Property shall be governed by such Lease. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Borrower’s obligations to promptly commence and diligently prosecute the Restoration of the Property in accordance with this Section 8.2 or take other actions on the Property under this Section are subject to any restrictions on the property owner to take such actions contained in the applicable Leases. To the extent the obligations of Borrower to restore the Property or take other actions on the Property are the responsibility of Tenant pursuant to the applicable Lease, Borrower shall be deemed to be in compliance with this Section so long as Borrower is asserting its rights and is using commercially reasonable efforts to enforce Tenant’s obligations under the applicable Lease including, without limitation, the exercise of remedies available under the applicable Lease; provided, however, that the foregoing shall in no way limit Borrower’s obligations to Lender under this Section 8.2 and this Agreement.

Section 8.3. Condemnation

Borrower shall promptly give Lender notice of the actual or threatened commencement of any proceeding for the Condemnation of the Property of which Borrower has knowledge and shall deliver to Lender copies of any and all papers served in connection with such proceedings. Lender may participate in any such proceedings, and Borrower shall from time to time deliver to Lender all instruments requested by it to permit such participation. Borrower shall, at its expense, diligently prosecute any such proceedings, and shall consult with Lender, its attorneys and experts, and cooperate with them in the carrying on or defense of any such proceedings. Notwithstanding any taking by any public or quasi-public authority through Condemnation or otherwise (including but not limited to any transfer made in lieu of or in anticipation of the exercise of such taking), Borrower shall continue to pay the Debt at the time and in the manner provided for its payment in the Note and in this Agreement and the Debt shall not be reduced until any Award shall have been actually received and applied by Lender, after the deduction of expenses of collection, to the reduction or discharge of the Debt. Lender shall not be limited to the interest paid on the Award by the condemning authority but shall be entitled to receive out of the Award interest at the rate or rates provided herein or in the Note. If the Property or any portion thereof is taken by a condemning authority, Borrower shall promptly commence and diligently prosecute the Restoration of the Property and otherwise comply with the provisions of Section 8.4, whether or not Lender makes any Net Proceeds available pursuant to Section 8.4. If the Property is sold, through foreclosure or otherwise, prior to the receipt by Lender of the Award, Lender shall have the right, whether or not a deficiency judgment on the Note shall have been sought, recovered or denied, to receive the Award, or a portion thereof sufficient to pay the Debt. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 8.3, to the extent any Lease remains in effect and the Tenant thereunder remains liable for the obligations under such Lease,

 

-60-


the disposition of any amounts, awards or payments payable with respect to any Condemnation relating to the Property shall be governed by such Lease. To the extent the obligations of Borrower to restore the Property or take other actions on the Property are the responsibility of Tenant pursuant to the applicable Lease, Borrower shall be deemed to be in compliance with this Section so long as Borrower is asserting its rights and is using commercially reasonable efforts to enforce Tenant’s obligations under the applicable Lease including, without limitation, the exercise of remedies available under the applicable Lease; provided, however, that the foregoing shall in no way limit Borrower’s obligations to Lender under this Section 8.3 and this Agreement.

Section 8.4. Restoration

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

(a) If the Net Proceeds shall be less than $150,000 and the costs of completing the Restoration shall be less than $150,000, the Net Proceeds will be disbursed by Lender to Borrower upon receipt, provided that all of the conditions set forth in Section 8.4(b)(i) are met and Borrower delivers to Lender a written undertaking to expeditiously commence and to satisfactorily complete with due diligence the Restoration in accordance with the terms of this Agreement to the extent obligated under the applicable Lease.

(b) If the Net Proceeds are equal to or greater than $150,000 or the costs of completing the Restoration are equal to or greater than $150,000, Lender shall make the Net Proceeds available for the Restoration subject to the conditions of and in accordance with the provisions of this Section 8.4. The term “Net Proceeds” for purposes of this Section 8.4 shall mean: (i) the net amount of all insurance proceeds received by Lender pursuant to Section 8.1(a)(i), (iv), (vi) and (viii) as a result of a Casualty, after deduction of its reasonable costs and expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable counsel fees), if any, in collecting the same (“Insurance Proceeds”), or (ii) the net amount of the Award as a result of a Condemnation, after deduction of its reasonable costs and expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable counsel fees), if any, in collecting the same (“Condemnation Proceeds”), whichever the case may be.

(i) Unless the terms of a Lease (or ground lease) approved by Lender, including the Existing Leases, require that the Net Proceeds be used for the Restoration of the Property, the Net Proceeds shall be made available to Borrower for Restoration provided that each of the following conditions are met (Lender acknowledges that it has approved each Existing Lease):

(A) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing;

(B) (1) in the event the Net Proceeds are Insurance Proceeds, less than thirty percent (30%) of the total floor area of the Improvements on the Property has been damaged, destroyed or rendered unusable as a result of a Casualty and the amount of damage does not exceed thirty percent (30%) of the Property’s fair market value immediately prior to the occurrence of such Casualty, or (2) in the event the Net Proceeds are Condemnation Proceeds, less than ten percent (10%)

 

-61-


of the land constituting the Property is taken, such land is located along the perimeter or periphery of the Property, and less than fifteen percent (15%) of the aggregate floor area of the Improvements is taken and the taking does not exceed fifteen percent (15%) of the Property’s fair market value immediately prior to the occurrence of such taking;

(C) Leases covering in the aggregate at least seventy-five percent (75%) of the total rentable space in the Property which has been demised under executed and delivered Leases in effect as of the date of the occurrence of such Casualty or Condemnation, whichever the case may be, and each Major Lease in effect as of such date shall remain in full force and effect during and after the completion of the Restoration without abatement of rent beyond the time required for Restoration;

(D) Borrower shall commence the Restoration as soon as reasonably practicable (but in no event later than ninety (90) days after such Casualty or Condemnation, whichever the case may be, occurs) and shall diligently pursue the same to satisfactory completion;

(E) Lender shall be satisfied that any operating deficits, including all scheduled payments of principal and interest under the Note, which will be incurred with respect to the Property as a result of the occurrence of any such Casualty or Condemnation, whichever the case may be, will be covered out of the insurance coverage referred to in Section 8.1(a)(iii) above;

(F) Lender shall be satisfied that the Restoration will be completed on or before the earliest to occur of (1) six (6) months prior to the Maturity Date, (2) the earliest date required for such completion under the terms of any Leases or material agreements affecting the Property, (3) such time as may be required under applicable zoning law, ordinance, rule or regulation, or (4) the expiration of the insurance coverage referred to in Section 8.1(a)(iii);

(G) the Property and the use thereof after the Restoration will be in compliance with and permitted under all Legal Requirements or will be legally non-conforming;

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

(I) such Casualty or Condemnation, as applicable, does not result in the loss of access to the Property or the Improvements;

(J) Borrower shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Lender a signed detailed budget approved in writing by Borrower’s architect or engineer stating the entire cost of completing the Restoration, which budget shall be reasonably acceptable to Lender;

 

-62-


(K) the Net Proceeds together with any cash or cash equivalent deposited by Borrower with Lender are sufficient in Lender’s reasonable judgment to cover the cost of the Restoration; and

(L) Lender shall be satisfied that the Debt Service Coverage Ratio for the Property, after giving effect to the Restoration, shall be equal or greater than 1.55 to 1.0.

(ii) Subject to the terms of the applicable Lease, the Net Proceeds shall be held by Lender until disbursements commence, and, until disbursed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 8.4(b), shall constitute additional security for the Debt and other obligations under the Loan Documents. The Net Proceeds shall be disbursed by Lender to, or as directed by, Borrower from time to time during the course of the Restoration, upon receipt of evidence satisfactory to Lender that (A) all the conditions precedent to such advance, including those set forth in Section 8.4(b)(i), have been satisfied, (B) all materials installed and work and labor performed (except to the extent that they are to be paid for out of the requested disbursement) in connection with the related Restoration item have been paid for in full, and (C) there exist no notices of pendency, stop orders, mechanic’s or materialman’s liens or notices of intention to file same, or any other liens or encumbrances of any nature whatsoever on the Property which have not either been fully bonded to the satisfaction of Lender and discharged of record or in the alternative fully insured to the satisfaction of Lender by the title company issuing the Title Insurance Policy. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Insurance Proceeds from the Policies required to be maintained by Borrower pursuant to Section 8.1(a)(iii) shall be controlled by Lender at all times, shall not be subject to the provisions of this Section 8.4 and shall be used solely for the payment of the obligations under the Loan Documents and Operating Expenses.

(iii) All plans and specifications required in connection with the Restoration shall be subject to prior review and acceptance in all respects by Lender and by an independent consulting engineer selected by Lender (the “Restoration Consultant”). Lender shall have the use of the plans and specifications and all permits, licenses and approvals required or obtained in connection with the Restoration. The identity of the contractors, subcontractors and materialmen engaged in the Restoration, as well as the contracts in excess of $100,000 under which they have been engaged, shall be subject to prior review and acceptance by Lender and the Restoration Consultant. All costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with making the Net Proceeds available for the Restoration, including, without limitation, reasonable counsel fees and disbursements and the Restoration Consultant’s fees, shall be paid by Borrower.

(iv) In no event shall Lender be obligated to make disbursements of the Net Proceeds in excess of an amount equal to the costs actually incurred from time to time for work in place as part of the Restoration, as certified by the Restoration Consultant, minus the Restoration Retainage. The term “Restoration Retainage” shall mean an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the costs actually incurred for work in place as part of the Restoration, as certified by the Restoration Consultant, until the Restoration has been completed. The Restoration Retainage shall be reduced to five percent (5%) of the costs

 

-63-


incurred upon receipt by Lender of satisfactory evidence that fifty percent (50%) of the Restoration has been completed. The Restoration Retainage shall in no event, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above in this Section 8.4(b), be less than the amount actually held back by Borrower from contractors, subcontractors and materialmen engaged in the Restoration. The Restoration Retainage shall not be released until the Restoration Consultant certifies to Lender that the Restoration has been completed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 8.4(b) and that all approvals necessary for the re-occupancy and use of the Property have been obtained from all appropriate Governmental Authorities, and Lender receives evidence satisfactory to Lender that the costs of the Restoration have been paid in full or will be paid in full out of the Restoration Retainage; provided, however, that Lender will release the portion of the Restoration Retainage being held with respect to any contractor, subcontractor or materialman engaged in the Restoration as of the date upon which the Restoration Consultant certifies to Lender that the contractor, subcontractor or materialman has satisfactorily completed all work and has supplied all materials in accordance with the provisions of the contractor’s, subcontractor’s or materialman’s contract, the contractor, subcontractor or materialman delivers the lien waivers and evidence of payment in full of all sums due to the contractor, subcontractor or materialman as may be reasonably requested by Lender or by the title company issuing the Title Insurance Policy, and Lender receives an endorsement to the Title Insurance Policy insuring the continued priority of the lien of the Mortgage and evidence of payment of any premium payable for such endorsement. If required by Lender, the release of any such portion of the Restoration Retainage shall be approved by the surety company, if any, which has issued a payment or performance bond with respect to the contractor, subcontractor or materialman.

(v) Lender shall not be obligated to make disbursements of the Net Proceeds more frequently than once every calendar month.

(vi) If at any time the Net Proceeds or the undisbursed balance thereof shall not, in the reasonable opinion of Lender in consultation with the Restoration Consultant, be sufficient to pay in full the balance of the costs which are estimated by the Restoration Consultant to be incurred in connection with the completion of the Restoration, Borrower shall deposit the deficiency (the “Net Proceeds Deficiency”) with Lender before any further disbursement of the Net Proceeds shall be made. The Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited with Lender shall be held by Lender and shall be disbursed for costs actually incurred in connection with the Restoration on the same conditions applicable to the disbursement of the Net Proceeds, and until so disbursed pursuant to this Section 8.4(b) shall constitute additional security for the Debt and other obligations under the Loan Documents.

(vii) The excess, if any, of the Net Proceeds and the remaining balance, if any, of the Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited with Lender after the Restoration Consultant certifies to Lender that the Restoration has been completed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 8.4(b), and the receipt by Lender of evidence satisfactory to Lender that all costs incurred in connection with the Restoration have been paid in full, shall be remitted by Lender to Borrower, provided no Event of Default shall have occurred and shall be continuing under the Note, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.

 

-64-


(c) Following the Securitization of the Loan, if, after a taking of any portion of the Property by a condemning authority, the ratio (the “LTV Ratio”) of the unpaid principal balance of the Loan to the value of the remaining real property relating to the Property (as determined by Lender using any commercially reasonable valuation method) is greater than one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) (based solely on the value of the real property and excluding any personal property or going concern value), then Borrower’s right to receive Condemnation Proceeds or use the same toward Restoration under Sections 8.4(a) or (b) above shall be subject to the right of Lender, at its option, to retain and apply toward the payment of the principal balance of the Debt the least of the following amounts: (i) all Condemnation Proceeds, (ii) the fair market value of the such portion of the real property relating to the Property taken at the time of the taking, (iii) an amount such that the LTV Ratio following the taking is not greater than the LTV Ratio immediately prior to the taking (in each case, of the real property relating to the Property). All Net Proceeds not required to be made available for the Restoration, shall be returned to Borrower as excess Net Proceeds pursuant to Section 8.4(b)(vii), or in the case of Condemnation Proceeds applied by Lender in accordance with this Section 8.4(c), may (x) be retained and applied by Lender toward the payment of the Debt whether or not then due and payable in such order, priority and proportions as Lender in its sole discretion shall deem proper, or, (y) at the sole discretion of Lender, the same may be paid, either in whole or in part, to Borrower for such purposes and upon such conditions as Lender shall designate. If, pursuant to this Section 8.4, Lender shall receive and retain Net Proceeds, the Debt shall be reduced only by the amount thereof received and retained by Lender and actually applied by Lender in reduction thereof without prepayment fee or penalty.

(d) In the event of foreclosure of the Mortgage, or other transfer of title to the Property in extinguishment in whole or in part of the Debt, all right, title and interest of Borrower in and to the Policies then in force concerning the Property and all proceeds payable thereunder shall thereupon vest in the purchaser at such foreclosure, Lender or other transferee in the event of such other transfer of title.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 8.4, to the extent any Lease remains in effect and the Tenant thereunder remains liable for the obligations under such Lease, the Restoration of the Property shall be governed by such Lease, including the obligation of Lender to provide or permit the Tenant use of such Net Proceeds.

ARTICLE 9

RESERVE FUNDS

Section 9.1. Required Repairs

Borrower shall make the repairs and improvements to the Property set forth on Schedule II and as more particularly described in the Property Condition Report prepared in connection with the closing of the Loan (such repairs hereinafter referred to as “Required Repairs”). Borrower shall complete the Required Repairs in a good and workmanlike manner on or before the date that is twelve (12) months from the date hereof. Notwithstanding anything to the

 

-65-


contrary contained herein, Borrower’s obligations to complete the Required Repairs in accordance with this Section 9.1 are subject to any restrictions on the property owner to take such actions contained in the applicable Leases. To the extent the obligations of Borrower to complete the Required Repairs are the responsibility of the Tenant pursuant to the applicable Lease, Borrower shall be deemed to be in compliance with this Section 9.1 so long as Borrower is asserting its rights and is using commercially reasonable efforts to enforce Tenant’s obligations under the applicable Lease.

Section 9.2. Replacements

(a) If required by the applicable Lease, on an ongoing basis throughout the term of the Loan, Borrower shall make capital repairs, replacements and improvements necessary to keep the Property in good order and repair and in a good marketable condition or prevent deterioration of the Property, including, but not limited to, those repairs, replacements and improvements as reasonably determined by Lender (including for furniture, fixtures and equipment) and more particularly described in the Property Condition Report prepared in connection with the closing of the Loan (collectively, the “Replacements”). Borrower shall complete all Replacements in a good and workmanlike manner as soon as commercially reasonable after commencing to make each such Replacement.

(b) If, at any time Lender reasonably determines that Borrower is obligated pursuant to the terms of any Lease and after and during the continuation of an Event of Default, to fund the Replacements, Borrower shall establish an Eligible Account with Lender or Lender’s agent to fund the Replacements (the “Replacement Reserve Account”) into which Borrower shall deposit an amount reasonably acceptable to Lender. Amounts so deposited shall hereinafter be referred to as “Replacement Reserve Funds.” Lender may, in its reasonable discretion, adjust the Replacement Reserve Monthly Deposit from time to time to an amount sufficient to maintain the proper maintenance and operation of the Property. In the event Lender shall at any time increase the Replacement Reserve Monthly Deposit, Borrower may, at its election, request that Lender obtain, at the sole cost and expense of Borrower, a Property Condition Report prepared by an engineer selected by Lender in its reasonable discretion, in which case the Replacement Reserve Monthly Deposit shall be adjusted by Lender based on the results of such report, provided that in no event shall such amounts be reduced below the initial amount of the Replacement Reserve Monthly Deposit set forth in herein.

Section 9.3. Intentionally Omitted

Section 9.4. Required Work

To the extent Borrower is obligated to make any Replacements pursuant to any Lease, Borrower shall diligently pursue such Replacements (the “Required Work”) to completion in accordance with the following requirements:

(a) Lender reserves the right, at its option, to approve all contracts or work orders with materialmen, mechanics, suppliers, subcontractors, contractors or other parties providing labor or materials in connection with the Required Work to the extent such contracts or work orders exceed $150,000. Upon Lender’s written request, Borrower shall collaterally assign any contract or subcontract to Lender.

 

-66-


(b) In the event Lender determines in its reasonable discretion that any Required Work is not being or has not been performed in a workmanlike or timely manner, Lender shall have the option to withhold disbursement for such unsatisfactory Required Work without providing any additional written notice to Borrower and to exercise any and all other remedies available to Lender upon an Event of Default hereunder, or (ii) provide written notice to Borrower detailing information on the conditions Lender has identified as unworkmanlike or untimely. Borrower shall then have ten (10) Business Days after receipt of such notice to correct or cause to be corrected the conditions identified in such notice. In the even the unworkmanlike conditions continue after such ten (10) Business Day period, Lender shall have the option to proceed under existing contracts or to contract with third parties to complete such Required Work and to apply the Replacement Reserve Funds toward the labor and materials necessary to complete such Required Work, without providing any additional written notice to Borrower and to exercise any and all other remedies available to Lender upon an Event of Default hereunder.

(c) In the event Lender withholds disbursements and proceeds to complete the Required Work pursuant to Section 9;4(b), Borrower grants Lender the right to enter onto the Property and perform any and all work and labor necessary to complete the Required Work and/or employ watchmen to protect the Property from damage. All sums so expended by Lender, to the extent not from the Reserve Funds, shall be deemed to have been advanced under the Loan to Borrower and secured by the Mortgage. For this purpose Borrower constitutes and appoints Lender its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full power of substitution to complete or undertake the Required Work in the name of Borrower upon Borrower’s failure to do so in a workmanlike and timely manner. Such power of attorney shall be deemed to be a power coupled with an interest and cannot be revoked. Borrower empowers said attorney-in-fact as follows: (i) to use any of the Reserve Funds for the purpose of making or completing the Required Work; (ii) to make such additions, changes and corrections to the Required Work as shall be necessary or desirable to complete the Required Work; (iii) to employ such contractors, subcontractors, agents, architects and inspectors as shall be required for such purposes; (iv) to pay, settle or compromise all existing bills and claims which are or may become Liens against the Property, or as may be necessary or desirable for the completion of the Required Work, or for clearance of title; (v) to execute all applications and certificates in the name of Borrower which may be required by any of the contract documents; (vi) to prosecute and defend all actions or proceedings in connection with the Property or the rehabilitation and repair of the Property; and (vii) to do any and every act which Borrower might do on its own behalf to fulfill the terms of this Agreement.

(d) Nothing in this Section 9.4 shall: (i) make Lender responsible for making or completing the Required Work; (ii) require Lender to expend funds in addition to the Reserve Funds to make or complete any Required Work; (iii) obligate Lender to proceed with the Required Work; or (iv) obligate Lender to demand from Borrower additional sums to make or complete any Required Work.

(e) Borrower shall permit Lender and Lender’s agents and representatives (including, without limitation, Lender’s engineer, architect, or inspector) or third parties performing

 

-67-


Required Work pursuant to this Section 9.4 to enter onto the Property during normal business hours (subject to the rights of tenants under their Leases) to inspect the progress of any Required Work and all materials being used in connection therewith, to examine all plans and shop drawings relating to such Required Work which are or may be kept at the Property, and to complete any Required Work made pursuant to this Section 9.4. Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause all contractors and subcontractors to cooperate with Lender and Lender’s representatives or such other persons described above in connection with inspections described in this Section 9.4 or the completion of Required Work pursuant to this Section 9.4.

(f) Lender may, to the extent any Required Work would reasonably require an inspection of the Property, inspect the Property at Borrower’s expense prior to making a disbursement of the Reserve Funds in order to verify completion of the Required Work for which reimbursement is sought. Borrower shall pay Lender a reasonable inspection fee not exceeding $1,000 for each such inspection. Lender may require that such inspection be conducted by an appropriate independent qualified professional selected by Lender and/or may require a copy of a certificate of completion by an independent qualified professional acceptable to Lender prior to the disbursement of the Reserve Funds. Borrower shall pay customary and reasonable and customary expenses of the inspection as required hereunder, whether such inspection is conducted by Lender or by an independent qualified professional.

(g) The Required Work and all materials, equipment, fixtures, or any other item comprising a part of any Required Work shall be constructed, installed or completed, as applicable, free and clear of all mechanic’s, materialman’s or other Liens (except for Permitted Encumbrances).

(h) Before each disbursement of the Reserve Funds for Required Work, Lender may require Borrower to provide Lender with a search of title to the Property effective to the date of the disbursement, which search shows that no mechanic’s or materialmen’s or other Liens of any nature have been placed against the Property since the date of recordation of the Mortgage and that title to the Property is free and clear of all Liens (except for Permitted Encumbrances).

(i) All Required Work shall comply with all Legal Requirements and applicable insurance requirements including, without limitation, applicable building codes, special use permits, environmental regulations, and requirements of insurance underwriters.

(j) Borrower hereby assigns to Lender all rights and claims Borrower may have against all Persons supplying labor or materials in connection with the Required Work; provided, however, that Lender may not pursue any such rights or claims unless an Event of Default has occurred and remains uncured.

Section 9.5. Release of Reserve Funds

(a) Upon written request from Borrower and satisfaction of the requirements set forth in this Agreement, Lender shall disburse to Borrower amounts from the Replacement Reserve Account to the extent necessary to pay for or reimburse Borrower for the actual costs of any approved Replacements. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, in no event shall Lender be

 

-68-


required to (x) disburse funds from any of the Reserve Accounts if an Event of Default exists, or (y) disburse funds from the Replacement Reserve Account to reimburse Borrower for the costs of routine repairs or maintenance to the Property.

(b) With each request for disbursement, Borrower shall certify in writing to Lender that all Required Work has been performed in accordance with all Legal Requirements and that all such Required Work has been completed lien free and paid for in full or will be paid for in full upon disbursement of the requested funds. In addition, each request for disbursement in excess of $25,000 shall be on a form provided or approved by Lender and shall (i) include copies of invoices for all items or materials purchased and all labor or services provided, (ii) specify (A) the Required Work for which the disbursement is requested, (B) the quantity and price of each item purchased, if the Required Work includes the purchase or replacement of specific items, (C) the price of all materials (grouped by type or category) used in any Required Work other than the purchase or replacement of specific items, and (D) the cost of all contracted labor or other services applicable to each Required Work for which such request for disbursement is made, and (iii) if requested by Lender, conditional lien waivers from each contractor, supplier, materialman, mechanic or subcontractor with respect to the completion of its work or delivery of its materials. Except as provided in Section 9.5(d), each request for disbursement shall be made only after completion of the Replacement (or the portion thereof completed in accordance with Section 9.5(d)), or the full performance by the leasing agent of its obligations (in the case of Leasing Commissions), as applicable, for which disbursement is requested. Borrower shall provide Lender evidence satisfactory to Lender in its reasonable judgment of such completion or performance.

(c) Any lien waiver delivered hereunder shall conform to all Legal Requirements and shall cover all work performed and materials supplied (including equipment and fixtures) for the Property by that contractor, supplier, subcontractor, mechanic or materialman through the date covered by the current disbursement request.

(d) If (i) the cost of any item of Required Work exceeds $50,000, (ii) the contractor performing such Required Work requires periodic payments pursuant to terms of a written contract, and (iii) Lender has approved in writing in advance such periodic payments, a request for disbursement from the Reserve Accounts may be made after completion of a portion of the work under such contract, provided (A) such contract requires payment upon completion of such portion of work, (B) the materials for which the request is made are on site at the Property and are properly secured or have been installed in the Property, (C) all other conditions in this Agreement for disbursement have been satisfied, and (D) in the case of a Replacement, funds remaining in the Replacement Reserve Account are, in Lender’s reasonable judgment, sufficient to complete such Replacement and other Replacements when required.

(e) Borrower shall not make a request for, nor shall Lender have any obligation to make, any disbursement from any Reserve Account more frequently than once in any calendar month and (except in connection with the final disbursement) in any amount less than the lesser of (i) $10,000 or (ii) the total cost of the Required Work for which the disbursement is requested.

(f) Intentionally Omitted.

 

-69-


(g) In the event Borrower requests a disbursement from the Replacement Reserve Account to pay for or to reimburse Borrower for the actual cost of labor or materials used in connection with repairs or improvements other than the Replacements specified in the Property Condition Report prepared in connection with the closing of the Loan (an “Additional Replacement”), Borrower shall disclose in writing to Lender the reason why funds in the Replacement Reserve Account should be used to pay for such Additional Replacement. If Lender reasonably determines that (i) such Additional Replacement is of the type intended to be covered by the Replacement Reserve Account, (ii) costs for such Additional Replacement are reasonable, (iii) the funds in the Replacement Reserve Account are sufficient to pay for such Additional Replacement and all other Replacements for the Property specified in the Property Condition Report, and (iv) all other conditions for disbursement under this Agreement have been met, Lender shall disburse funds from the Replacement Reserve Account.

(h) Lender’s disbursement of any Reserve Funds or other acknowledgment of completion of any Required Work in a manner satisfactory to Lender shall not be deemed a certification or warranty by Lender to any Person that the Required Work has been completed in accordance with Legal Requirements.

(i) If the funds in any Reserve Account should exceed the amount of payments actually applied by Lender for the purposes of the account, Lender in its sole discretion shall either return any excess to Borrower or credit such excess against future payments to be made to that Reserve Account. If at any time Lender reasonably determines that the Reserve Funds are not or will not be sufficient to make the required payments, Lender shall notify Borrower of such determination and Borrower shall pay to Lender any amount necessary to make up the deficiency within ten (10) days after notice from Lender to Borrower requesting payment thereof.

(j) The insufficiency of any balance in any of the Reserve Accounts shall not relieve Borrower from its obligation to fulfill all preservation and maintenance covenants in the Loan Documents.

(k) Intentionally Omitted.

(l) Upon payment in full of the Debt, all amounts remaining on deposit, if any, in the Replacement Reserve Account shall be returned to Borrower or the Person shown on Lender’s records as being the owner of the Property and no other party shall have any right or claim thereto.

(m) Upon the payment in full of the Debt, all amounts remaining on deposit, if any, in the Reserve Account shall be returned to Borrower or the Person shown on Lender’s records as being the owner of the Property and no other party shall have any right or claim thereto.

Section 9.6. Tax and Insurance Reserve Funds

(a) Subject to sub-section (b) below, Borrower shall upon Lender’s request establish an Eligible Account with Lender or Lender’s agent sufficient to discharge Borrower’s obligations for the payment of Taxes and Insurance Premiums pursuant to Section 5.4 and Section 8.1 hereof (the “Tax and Insurance Reserve Account”). Borrower shall deposit into the Tax and Insurance Reserve Account on each Scheduled Payment Date (a) one-twelfth of the

 

-70-


Taxes that Lender estimates will be payable during the next ensuing twelve (12) months or such higher amount necessary to accumulate with Lender sufficient funds to pay all such Taxes at least thirty (30) days prior to the earlier of (i) the date that the same will become delinquent and (ii) the date that additional charges or interest will accrue due to the non-payment thereof, and (b) except to the extent Lender has waived in writing the insurance escrow because the insurance required hereunder is maintained under a blanket insurance Policy acceptable to Lender in accordance with Section 8.1(c), one-twelfth of the Insurance Premiums that Lender estimates will be payable during the next ensuing twelve (12) months for the renewal of the coverage afforded by the Policies upon the expiration thereof or such higher amount necessary to accumulate with Lender sufficient funds to pay all such Insurance Premiums at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the Policies (said amounts in (a) and (b) above hereinafter called the “Tax and Insurance Reserve Funds”). Lender will apply the Tax and Insurance Reserve Funds to payments of Taxes and Insurance Premiums required to be made by Borrower pursuant to Section 5.4 and Section 8.1 hereof. In making any disbursement from the Tax and Insurance Reserve Account, Lender may do so according to any bill, statement or estimate procured from the appropriate public office or tax lien service (with respect to Taxes) or insurer or agent (with respect to Insurance Premiums), without inquiry into the accuracy of such bill, statement or estimate or into the validity of any tax, assessment, sale, forfeiture, tax lien or title or claim thereof. If the amount of the Tax and Insurance Reserve Funds shall exceed the amounts due for Taxes and Insurance Premiums pursuant to Section 5.4 and Section 8.1 hereof, Lender shall, in its sole discretion, return any excess to Borrower or credit such excess against future payments to be made to the Tax and Insurance Reserve Account. In allocating any such excess, Lender may deal with the person shown on Lender’s records as being the owner of the Property. Any amount remaining in the Tax and Insurance Reserve Account after the Debt has been paid in full shall be returned to Borrower or the person shown on Lender’s records as being the owner of the Property and no other party shall have any right or claim thereto. If at any time Lender reasonably determines that the Tax and Insurance Reserve Funds are not or will not be sufficient to pay Taxes and Insurance Premiums by the dates set forth in (a) and (b) above, Lender shall notify Borrower of such determination and Borrower shall pay to Lender any amount necessary to make up the deficiency within ten (10) days after notice from Lender to Borrower requesting payment thereof.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to contrary contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, provided that the applicable Tenant is fulfilling their obligation to pay Taxes and maintain insurance pursuant to the applicable Lease, any requirements herein with respect to Borrower being obligated to make any monthly deposits into the Tax and Insurance Reserve Account shall be waived. Borrower shall, to the extent entitled to receive proof of payment of Taxes and/or maintenance of insurance from the Tenants pursuant to the Leases, shall provide the same to Lender. Borrower agrees that it will request proof of such payment of Taxes and/or maintenance of insurance from the Tenants, in each case to the extent Borrower is permitted to do so under the Leases. Notwithstanding the above, to the extent a Tenant is not obligated to provide proof of payment of Taxes, Borrower shall be obligated to provide Lender proof of payment of Taxes.

 

-71-


Section 9.7. Excess Cash; Operating Expenses; Extraordinary Expenses

(a) Borrower shall establish on the date hereof an Eligible Account with Lender or Lender’s agent into which Borrower shall deposit all Excess Cash on each Scheduled Payment Date during the continuation of a Cash Sweep Period (the “Excess Cash Reserve Account”) to be held by Lender as additional security for the Loan. Amounts so deposited shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Excess Cash Reserve Funds.” Provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, all sums on deposit in the Excess Cash Reserve Account shall be disbursed to Borrower’s Account upon the earlier to occur of (a) payment in full of the Debt or (b) the discontinuation of a Cash Sweep Period.

(b) During the continuation of a Cash Sweep Period, Borrower shall submit to Lender not later than the twentieth (20th) day of each calendar month, a statement certified by Borrower in the form reasonably required by Lender (i) setting forth those Operating Expenses and Extraordinary Expenses to be paid by Borrower during the following calendar month, (ii) stating that no Operating Expenses or Extraordinary Expenses are more than sixty (60) days past due or setting forth anything to the contrary. Together with each such request, Borrower shall furnish Lender with bills and all other documents necessary for the payment of the Operating Expenses and/or Extraordinary Expenses which are the subject of such request. Only those Operating Expenses which are consistent with the Annual Budget, as well as those Operating Expenses and Extraordinary Expenses otherwise approved by Lender in writing in its reasonable discretion, shall be approved for payment and shall be disbursed to the Borrower’s Account on the next Scheduled Payment Date.

Section 9.8. Reserve Funds Generally

(a) No earnings or interest on the Reserve Funds shall be payable to Borrower. Neither Lender nor any loan servicer that at any time holds or maintains the Reserve Accounts shall have any obligation to keep or maintain such Reserve Accounts or any funds deposited therein in interest-bearing accounts. If Lender or any such loan servicer elects in its sole and absolute discretion to keep or maintain any Reserve Account or any funds deposited therein in an interest-bearing account, (i) such funds shall not be invested except in Permitted Investments, and (ii) all interest earned or accrued thereon shall be for the account of and be retained by Lender or such loan servicer.

(b) Borrower grants to Lender a first-priority perfected security interest in, and assigns and pledges to Lender, each of the Reserve Accounts and any and all Reserve Funds now or hereafter deposited in the Reserve Accounts as additional security for payment of the Debt. Until expended or applied in accordance herewith, the Reserve Accounts and the Reserve Funds shall constitute additional security for the Debt. The provisions of this Section 9.8 are intended to give Lender or any subsequent holder of the Loan “control” of the Reserve Accounts within the meaning of the UCC.

(c) The Reserve Accounts and any and all Reserve Funds now or hereafter deposited in the Reserve Accounts shall be subject to the exclusive dominion and control of Lender, which shall hold the Reserve Accounts and any or all Reserve Funds now or hereafter deposited in the Reserve Accounts subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Borrower shall have no

 

-72-


right of withdrawal from the Reserve Accounts or any other right or power with respect to the Reserve Accounts or any or all of the Reserve Funds now or hereafter deposited in the Reserve Accounts, except as expressly provided in this Agreement.

(d) Lender shall furnish or cause to be furnished to Borrower, without charge, an annual accounting of each Reserve Account in the normal format of Lender or its loan servicer, showing credits and debits to such Reserve Account and the purpose for which each debit to each Reserve Account was made.

(e) As long as no Event of Default has occurred, Lender shall make disbursements from the Reserve Accounts in accordance with this Agreement. All such disbursements shall be deemed to have been expressly pre-authorized by Borrower, and shall not be deemed to constitute the exercise by Lender of any remedies against Borrower unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and Lender has expressly stated in writing its intent to proceed to exercise its remedies as a secured party, pledgee or lienholder with respect to the Reserve Accounts.

(f) If any Event of Default occurs, Borrower shall immediately lose all of its rights to receive disbursements from the Reserve Accounts until the earlier to occur of (i) the date on which such Event of Default is cured to Lender’s satisfaction, or (ii) the payment in full of the Debt. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, Lender may exercise any or all of its rights and remedies as a secured party, pledgee and lienholder with respect to the Reserve Accounts. Without limitation of the foregoing, upon any Event of Default, Lender may use and disburse the Reserve Funds (or any portion thereof) for any of the following purposes: (A) repayment of the Debt, including, but not limited to, principal prepayments and the prepayment premium applicable to such full or partial prepayment (as applicable); (B) reimbursement of Lender for all losses, fees, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable legal fees) suffered or incurred by Lender as a result of such Event of Default; (C) payment of any amount expended in exercising any or all rights and remedies available to Lender at law or in equity or under this Agreement or under any of the other Loan Documents; (D) payment of any item from any of the Reserve Accounts as required or permitted under this Agreement; or (E) any other purpose permitted by applicable law; provided, however, that any such application of funds shall not cure or be deemed to cure any Event of Default. Without limiting any other provisions hereof, each of the remedial actions described in the immediately preceding sentence shall be deemed to be a commercially reasonable exercise of Lender’s rights and remedies as a secured party with respect to the Reserve Funds and shall not in any event be deemed to constitute a setoff or a foreclosure of a statutory banker’s lien. Nothing in this Agreement shall obligate Lender to apply all or any portion of the Reserve Funds to effect a cure of any Event of Default, or to pay the Debt, or in any specific order of priority. The exercise of any or all of Lender’s rights and remedies under this Agreement or under any of the other Loan Documents shall not in any way prejudice or affect Lender’s right to initiate and complete a foreclosure under the Mortgage.

(g) The Reserve Funds shall not constitute escrow or trust funds and may be commingled with other monies held by Lender. Notwithstanding anything else herein to the contrary, Lender may commingle in one or more Eligible Accounts any and all funds controlled by Lender, including, without limitation, funds pledged in favor of Lender by other borrowers, whether for the same purposes as the Reserve Accounts or otherwise. Without limiting any other

 

-73-


provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the Reserve Accounts may be established and held in such name or names as Lender or its loan servicer, as agent for Lender, shall deem appropriate, including, without limitation, in the name of Lender or such loan servicer as agent for Lender. In the case of any Reserve Account which is held in a commingled account, Lender or its loan servicer, as applicable, shall maintain records sufficient to enable it to determine at all times which portion of such account is related to the Loan. The Reserve Accounts are solely for the protection of Lender. With respect to the Reserve Accounts, Lender shall have no responsibility beyond the allowance of due credit for the sums actually received by Lender or beyond the reimbursement or payment of the costs and expenses for which such accounts were established in accordance with their terms. Upon assignment of the Loan by Lender, any Reserve Funds shall be turned over to the assignee and any responsibility of Lender as assignor shall terminate. The requirements of this Agreement concerning the Reserve Accounts in no way supersede, limit or waive any other rights or obligations of the parties under any of the Loan Documents or under applicable law.

(h) Borrower shall not, without obtaining the prior written consent of Lender, further pledge, assign or grant any security interest in the Reserve Accounts or the Reserve Funds deposited therein or permit any Lien to attach thereto, except for the security interest granted in this Section 9.8, or any levy to be made thereon, or any UCC Financing Statements, except those naming Lender as the secured party, to be filed with respect thereto.

(i) Borrower will maintain the security interest created by this Section 9.8 as a first priority perfected security interest and will defend the right, title and interest of Lender in and to the Reserve Accounts and the Reserve Funds against the claims and demands of all Persons whomsoever. At any time and from time to time, upon the written request of Lender, and at the sole expense of Borrower, Borrower will promptly and duly execute and deliver such further instruments and documents and will take such further actions as Lender reasonably may request for the purpose of obtaining or preserving the full benefits of this Agreement and of the rights and powers herein granted.

(j) Lender shall be protected in acting upon any notice, resolution, request, consent, order, certificate, report, opinion, bond or other paper, document or signature believed by Lender to be genuine, and it may be assumed conclusively that any Person purporting to give any of the foregoing in connection with the Reserve Account’s has been duly authorized to do so. Lender may consult with counsel, and the opinion of such counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or suffered by them hereunder and in good faith in accordance therewith. Lender shall not be liable to Borrower for any act or omission done or omitted to be done by Lender in reliance upon any instruction, direction or certification received by Lender and without gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(k) Beyond the exercise of reasonable care in the custody thereof, Lender shall not have any duty as to any Reserve Funds in its possession or control as agent therefor or bailee thereof or any income thereon or the preservation of rights against any person or otherwise with respect thereto. In no event shall Lender or its Affiliates, agents, employees or bailees, be liable or responsible for any loss or damage to any of the Reserve Funds, or for any diminution in value thereof, by reason of the act or omission of Lender, except to the extent that such loss or damage results from Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct or intentional nonperformance by Lender of its obligations under this Agreement.

(d) The Lockbox Account and Cash Management Account shall be subject to the exclusive dominion and control of Lender and, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, neither Borrower, Manager nor any other party claiming on behalf of, or through, Borrower or Manager, shall have any right of withdrawal therefrom or any other right or power with respect thereto.

(e) Borrower agrees to pay the reasonable and customary fees, expenses and charges (which fees, expenses and charges shall be subject to change from time to time) of (i) Lockbox Bank in connection with administering and maintaining the Lockbox Account and processing all items for payment therefrom, and (ii) Lender in connection with administering and maintaining the Cash Management Account and processing all distributions therefrom, which shall not exceed $500 per month.

(f) Lender shall be responsible for the performance only of such duties with respect to the Cash Management Account as are specifically set forth herein, and no duty shall be implied from any provision hereof. Lender shall not be under any obligation or duty to perform any act which would involve it in expense or liability or to institute or defend any suit in respect

 

-76-

(iii) All Rents or other income from the Property shall (A) be deemed additional security for payment of the Debt and shall be held in trust for the benefit, and as the property, of Lender, (B) not be commingled with any other funds or property of Borrower or Manager, and (C) if received by Borrower or Manager notwithstanding the delivery of a Tenant Direction Letter, be deposited in the Lockbox Account within one (1) Business Day of receipt;

(v) So long as any portion of the Debt remains outstanding, neither Borrower, Manager nor any other Person shall open or maintain any accounts other than the Lockbox Account into which revenues from the ownership and operation of the Property are deposited. The foregoing shall not prohibit Borrower from utilizing one or more separate accounts for the disbursement or retention of funds that have been transferred to Borrower pursuant to the express terms of this Agreement.

 

-77-


(b) Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes Lender to , upon the commencement of a Cash Sweep Period, instruct Lockbox Bank to transfer, or cause to be transferred, on each Business Day by wire transfer or other method of transfer mutually agreeable to Lockbox Bank and Lender of immediately available funds, all collected and available balances in the Lockbox Account (subject to any minimum retained or “peg” balance that may be required pursuant to the terms of the Lockbox Agreement) to the Cash Management Account to be held until disbursed by Lender pursuant to Section 10.2(d). Subject to Section 10.2(a) above, if a Cash Sweep Period ceases to exist, pursuant to the Lockbox Agreement, all collected and available balances in funds the Lockbox Account (subject to any minimum retained or “peg” balance that may be required pursuant to the terms of the Lockbox Agreement) in the Lockbox Account shall be transferred on each Business Day to Borrower’s Account, to be held and disbursed at Borrower’s sole discretion, unless a Cash Sweep Period once again exists, in which case such funds in the Lockbox Account shall be transferred on each Business Day to the Cash Management Account. Upon the cessation of a Cash Sweep Period, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Lender shall provide written notice to the Lockbox Bank directing it to remit the then balance in the Cash Management Account to Borrower’s Account.

Furthermore, Borrower shall not, without obtaining the prior written consent of Lender, further pledge, assign or grant any security interest in any of the foregoing or permit any Lien to attach thereto or any levy to be made thereon or any UCC Financing Statements to be filed with respect thereto.

(b) Borrower authorizes Lender to file any financing statement or statements required by Lender to establish or maintain the validity, perfection and priority of the security interest granted herein in connection with the Lockbox Account and Cash Management Account.

(c) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender may exercise any or all of its rights and remedies as a secured party, pledgee and lienholder with respect to the Lockbox Account and Cash Management Account.

Without limiting any other provisions hereof, each of the remedial actions described in the immediately preceding sentence shall be deemed to be a commercially reasonable exercise of Lender’s rights and remedies as a secured party with respect to the Lockbox Account and Cash Management Account and shall not in any event be deemed to constitute a setoff or a foreclosure of a statutory banker’s lien. Nothing in this Agreement shall obligate Lender to apply all or any portion of the Lockbox Account or Cash Management Account to effect a cure of any Event of Default, or to pay the Debt, or in any specific order of priority. The exercise of any or all of Lender’s rights and remedies under this Agreement or under any of the other Loan Documents shall not in any way prejudice or affect Lender’s right to initiate and complete a foreclosure under the Mortgage.

Section 17.2. Recording of Mortgage, etc

WAIVERS

Section 18.1. Remedies Cumulative; Waivers

The rights, powers and remedies of Lender under this Agreement shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any other right, power or remedy which Lender may have against Borrower or Borrower Principal pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or existing at law or in equity or otherwise. Lender’s rights, powers and remedies may be pursued singularly, concurrently or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Lender may determine in Lender’s sole discretion. No delay or omission to exercise any remedy, right or power accruing upon an Event of Default shall impair any such remedy, right or power or shall be construed as a waiver thereof, but any such remedy, right or power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. A waiver of one Default or Event of Default with respect to Borrower shall not be construed to be a waiver of any subsequent Default or Event of Default by Borrower or to impair any remedy, right or power consequent thereon.

Section 18.2. Modification, Waiver in Writing

No modification, amendment, extension, discharge, termination or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, or of the Note, or of any other Loan Document, nor consent to any departure by Borrower therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in a writing signed by the party against whom enforcement is sought, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance, and for the purpose, for which given. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no notice to, or demand on Borrower, shall entitle Borrower to any other or future notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances.

Section 18.3. Delay Not a Waiver

Neither any failure nor any delay on the part of Lender in insisting upon strict performance of any term, condition, covenant or agreement, or exercising any right, power, remedy or privilege hereunder, or under the Note or under any other Loan Document, or any other instrument given as security therefor, shall operate as or constitute a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other future exercise, or the exercise of any other right, power, remedy or privilege. In particular, and not by way of limitation, by accepting payment after the due date of any amount payable under this Agreement, the Note or any other Loan Document, Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any right either to require prompt payment when due of all other amounts due under this Agreement, the Note or the other Loan Documents, or to declare a default for failure to effect prompt payment of any such other amount.

Section 18.4. Trial by Jury

BORROWER, BORROWER PRINCIPAL AND LENDER EACH HEREBY AGREES NOT TO ELECT A TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY ISSUE TRIABLE OF RIGHT BY JURY, AND WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY FULLY TO THE EXTENT THAT ANY SUCH RIGHT SHALL NOW OR HEREAFTER EXIST WITH

Section 18.5. Waiver of Notice

Borrower shall not be entitled to any notices of any nature whatsoever from Lender except with respect to matters for which this Agreement or the other Loan Documents specifically and expressly provide for the giving of notice by Lender to Borrower and except with respect to matters for which Borrower is not, pursuant to applicable Legal Requirements, permitted to waive the giving of notice. Borrower hereby expressly waives the right to receive any notice from Lender with respect to any matter for which this Agreement or the other Loan Documents do not specifically and expressly provide for the giving of notice by Lender to Borrower.

Section 18.6. Remedies of Borrower

In the event that a claim or adjudication is made that Lender or its agents have acted unreasonably or unreasonably delayed acting in any case where by law or under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, Lender or such agent, as the case may be, has an obligation to act reasonably or promptly, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law Borrower agrees that neither Lender nor its agents shall be liable for any monetary damages, and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law Borrower’s sole remedies shall be limited to commencing an action seeking injunctive relief or declaratory judgment. The parties hereto agree that any action or proceeding to determine whether Lender has acted reasonably shall be determined by an action seeking declaratory judgment. Lender agrees that, in such event, it shall cooperate in expediting any action seeking injunctive relief or declaratory judgment.

Section 18.7. Waiver of Marshalling of Assets

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Borrower, for itself and its successors and assigns, waives all rights to a marshalling of the assets of Borrower, Borrower’s partners and others with interests in Borrower, and of the Property, and agrees not to assert any right under any laws pertaining to the marshalling of assets, the sale in inverse order of alienation, homestead exemption, the administration of estates of decedents, or any other matters whatsoever to defeat, reduce or affect the right of Lender under the Loan Documents to a sale of the Property for the collection of the Debt without any prior or different resort for collection or of the right of Lender to the payment of the Debt out of the net proceeds of the Property in preference to every other claimant whatsoever.

Section 18.10. Gradsky Waivers

(b) Any rights or defenses that may be available by reason of any election of remedies by Lender (including, without limitation, any such election which in any manner impairs, effects, reduces, releases, destroys or extinguishes Borrower Principal’s subrogation rights, rights to proceed against Borrower for reimbursement, or any other rights of Borrower Principal to proceed against any other person, entity or security, including but not limited to any defense based upon an election of remedies by Lender under the provisions of Section 580(d) of the California Code of Civil Procedure or any similar law of California or of any other State or of the United States); and

(c) Any rights or defenses Borrower Principal may have because its obligations under this Agreement (the “Borrower Principal Obligations”) are secured by real property or any estate for years. These rights or defenses include, but are not limited to, any rights or defenses that are based upon, directly or indirectly, the application of Section 580(a), Section 580(b), Section 580(d) or Section 726 of the California Code of Civil Procedure to the Borrower Principal Obligations.

The provisions of this subsection (c) mean, among other things:

(y) Lender may collect from Borrower Principal without first foreclosing on any real or personal property collateral pledged by Borrower for the Debt; and

(z) If Lender forecloses on a real property pledged by Borrower:

(1) The Borrower Principal Obligations shall not be reduced by the price for which the collateral sold at the foreclosure sale or the value of the collateral at the time of the sale.

(2) Lender may collect from Borrower Principal even if Lender, by foreclosing on the real property collateral, has destroyed any right of Borrower Principal to collect from Borrower. Further, the provisions of this Agreement constitute an unconditional and irrevocable waiver of any rights and defenses Borrower Principal may have because Borrower’s obligations are secured by real property. These rights and defenses, include, but are not limited to, any rights or defenses based upon Section 580(a), Section 580(b), Section 580(d) or Section 726 of the California Code of Civil Procedure.

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

Section 20.2. Lender’s Discretion

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

Section 20.3. Headings

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

Section 20.4. Schedules Incorporated

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

Section 20.5. Offsets, Counterclaims and Defenses

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

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

(a) Borrower and Lender intend that the relationships created hereunder and under the other Loan Documents be solely that of borrower and lender. Nothing herein or therein is

 

-103-


intended to create a joint venture, partnership, tenancy-in-common, or joint tenancy relationship between Borrower and Lender nor to grant Lender any interest in the Property other than that of mortgagee, beneficiary or lender.

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

(c) The general partners, members, principals and (if Borrower is a trust) beneficial owners of Borrower are experienced in the ownership and operation of properties similar to the Property, and Borrower and Lender are relying solely upon such expertise and business plan in connection with the ownership and operation of the Property. Borrower is not relying on Lender’s expertise, business acumen or advice in connection with the Property.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Lender is not undertaking the performance of (i) any obligations under the Leases; or (ii) any obligations with respect to such agreements, contracts, certificates, instruments, franchises, permits, trademarks, licenses and other documents.

(e) By accepting or approving anything required to be observed, performed or fulfilled or to be given to Lender pursuant to this Agreement, the Mortgage, the Note or the other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, any officer’s certificate, balance sheet, statement of profit and loss or other financial statement, survey, appraisal, or insurance policy, Lender shall not be deemed to have warranted, consented to, or affirmed the sufficiency, the legality or effectiveness of same, and such acceptance or approval thereof shall not constitute any warranty or affirmation with respect thereto by Lender.

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

 

-104-


Section 20.7. Publicity

Except for disclosures and reporting required by applicable Legal Requirements and communications with shareholders of Guarantor or other constituent entities of Borrower in the ordinary course of business, all news releases, publicity or advertising by Borrower or its Affiliates which Borrower controls or is controlled by, through any media intended to reach the general public which refers to the Loan, Lender, Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, or any of their Affiliates shall be subject to the prior written approval of Lender, not to be unreasonably withheld. Lender shall be permitted to make any news releases, publicity or advertising by Lender or its Affiliates through any media intended to reach the general public which refers to the Loan, the Property, Borrower and their respective Affiliates without the approval of Borrower or any such Persons. Borrower also agrees that Lender may share any information pertaining to the Loan with Bank of America Corporation, including its bank subsidiaries, Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated and any other Affiliates of the foregoing, in connection with the sale or transfer of the Loan or any Participations and/or Securities created.

Section 20.8. Cross Default; Cross Collateralization

Borrower acknowledges that Lender has made the Loan to Borrower upon the security of its collective interest in the Properties and in reliance upon the aggregate of the Properties taken together being of greater value as collateral security than the sum of the Properties taken separately. Borrower agrees that the Security Instruments are and will be cross-collateralized and cross-defaulted with each other so that (i) an Event of Default under any of the Security Instruments shall constitute an Event of Default under each of the other Security Instruments which secure the Note; (ii) an Event of Default under the Note or this Agreement shall constitute an Event of Default under each Security Instrument; and (iii) each Security Instrument shall constitute security for the Note as if a single blanket lien were placed on all of the Properties as security for the Note.

Section 20.9. Conflict; Construction of Documents; Reliance

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

 

-105-


Section 20.10. Duplicate Originals; Counterparts

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

Section 20.11. Contribution

(a) In the event of (i) any payment by any one or more of the Borrowers of any amount in excess of the Allocated Loan Amount relating to the Separate Property owned by such Borrower together with interest thereon and any other amounts payable with respect thereto, and (ii) the foreclosure of, or the delivery of deeds in lieu of foreclosure relating to, any of the collateral owned by one or more of the Borrowers, each Borrower (the “Overpaying Borrower”) whose collateral or assets have been utilized to satisfy obligations under the Loan or otherwise for the benefit of one or more other Borrowers shall be entitled, after payment in full of the Note and the satisfaction of all the Borrowers’ other obligations to Lender, to contribution from each of the benefited Borrowers, for the amounts so paid, advanced or benefited, up to such benefited Borrower’s then current applicable Allocated Loan Amount. Any such contribution payments shall be made within ten (10) days after demand therefor.

(b) If a Borrower (a “Defaulting Borrower”) shall have failed to make a contribution payment as herein provided, after the payment of the Note in full and the satisfaction of all of the Borrowers’ other obligations to Lender, the Overpaying Borrower shall be subrogated to the rights of Lender against such Defaulting Borrower, including the right to receive a portion of the Collateral of such Defaulting Borrower in an amount equal to the contribution payment required hereunder that such Defaulting Borrower failed to make; provided, however, if Lender returns any payments in connection with a bankruptcy of a Borrower, all subrogated Borrowers shall jointly and severally repay Lender all such amounts repaid, together with interest at the rate set forth in the Note.

(c) At the request of any Borrower or Borrowers, upon such repayment of the Note in full and satisfaction of all other obligations of the Borrowers, Lender shall assign the applicable collateral, without recourse, to such Borrower or Borrowers; provided, that, if Lender shall have received conflicting requests from more than one Borrower to receive such collateral and such requesting Borrowers cannot agree as to the disposition of such collateral, Lender shall have no obligation to deliver such collateral to such requesting Borrowers unless and until such requesting Borrowers shall have agreed as to the disposition of such collateral and so authorized Lender. Provided Lender shall have received such authorization, Lender shall assign the collateral in question, without recourse, to the Borrower entitled to receive such collateral within ninety (90) days thereafter. Prior to delivering such collateral, Lender shall be entitled to receive from the requesting Borrower or Borrowers such other assurances, indemnities and agreements as may be reasonably requested by Lender.

 

-106-


(d) The liabilities and obligations of Borrower under this Section 20.11 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the satisfaction and discharge of the Debt.

Section 20.12. Liability

If Borrower consists of more than one Person, the obligations and liabilities of each such person hereunder shall be joint and several. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Borrower and Lender and their respective successors and assigns forever.

Section 20.13. Entire Agreement

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

PRELIMINARY STATEMENTS

A. The Borrower, the guarantors party thereto (the “Guarantors”), the financial institutions party thereto (the “Lenders”), and the Administrative Agent entered into that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of February 27, 2012 and a First Amendment to Credit Agreement dated as of September 20, 2012 (such Credit Agreement, as amended, being referred to herein as the “Credit Agreement”). All capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the same meanings herein as such terms have in the Credit Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

 

SECTION 1. AMENDMENTS.

Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 2 below, the Credit Agreement shall be and hereby is amended as follows:

1.1. The title page of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by adding Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Syndication Agent and Branch Banking and Trust Company, as Documentation Agent to the title page of the Credit Agreement.

1.2. Clause (ii) in Section 1.1 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

(ii) the Borrowing Base as then determined and computed.

1.3. The term “Revolving Credit Availability” appearing in the second and third lines of Section 1.8(b)(i) is hereby replaced with the term “Borrowing Base.”

1.4. The amount $75,000,000 set forth in Section 1.15 is hereby deleted and replaced with the amount $125,000,000.


1.5. The definition of “Applicable Margin” in Section 5.1 is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

“Applicable Margin” means, with respect to Loans, Reimbursement Obligations, and the commitment fees and letter of credit fees payable under Section 2.1 hereof, from one Pricing Date to the next the rates per annum determined in accordance with the following schedule:

 

LEVEL   

TOTAL INDEBTEDNESS TO

TOTAL ASSET VALUE RATIO

FOR SUCH PRICING DATE

   APPLICABLE MARGIN
FOR BASE RATE  LOANS
AND REIMBURSEMENT
OBLIGATIONS SHALL
BE:
    APPLICABLE MARGIN
FOR EURODOLLAR
LOANS AND LETTER OF
CREDIT FEE SHALL BE:
 

I

  

Less than or equal to 0.25 to 1.00

     0.50     1.50

II

  

Less than or equal to 0.35 to 1.00, but greater than 0.25 to 1.00

     0.75     1.75

Less than or equal to 0.45 to 1.00, but greater than 0.35 to 1.00

     1.00     2.00

IV

  

Greater than 0.45 to 1.00

     1.25     2.25

For purposes hereof, the term “Pricing Date” means, for any fiscal quarter of the Borrower, the date on which the Administrative Agent is in receipt of the Borrower’s most recent Compliance Certificate and financial statements (and, in the case of the year-end financial statements, audit report) for the fiscal quarter then ended, pursuant to Section 8.5 hereof. The Applicable Margin shall be established based on the Total Indebtedness to Total Asset Value Ratio for the most recently completed fiscal quarter and the Applicable Margin established on a Pricing Date shall remain in effect until the next Pricing Date. If the Borrower has not delivered its Compliance Certificate and financial statements by the date the Compliance Certificate and financial statements (and, in the case of the year-end financial statements, audit report) are required to be delivered under Section 8.5 hereof, then until such Compliance Certificate and financial statements and/or audit report are delivered, the Applicable Margin shall be the highest Applicable Margin (i.e., Level IV shall apply). If the Borrower subsequently delivers such Compliance Certificate and financial statements before the next Pricing Date, the Applicable Margin established by such late delivered Compliance Certificate and financial statements shall take effect from the date of delivery until the next Pricing Date. In all other circumstances, the Applicable Margin established by such Compliance Certificate and financial statements shall be in effect from the Pricing Date that occurs immediately after the end of the fiscal quarter covered by such financial statements until the next Pricing Date. Borrower, Administrative Agent, L/C Issuer and Lenders understand that the applicable interest rate for the Obligations and certain fees set forth herein may be determined and/or adjusted from time to time based upon certain financial ratios and/or other information to be provided or certified to the Administrative Agent and Lenders by Borrower (the "Borrower Information"). If it is subsequently determined that any such Borrower Information was incorrect (for whatever reason, including without limitation because of a subsequent restatement of earnings by the Borrower) at the time it was delivered to the Administrative Agent, and if the applicable interest rate or fees calculated for any period were lower than they should have been had the correct information been timely provided, then, such

 

-2-


interest rate and such fees for such period shall be automatically recalculated using correct Borrower Information; provided that no recalculation shall be done for any period that is more than 2 years earlier than the date of recalculation. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify Borrower in writing of any additional interest and fees due because of such recalculation, and the Borrower shall pay such additional interest or fees due to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender or the L/C Issuer, within five (5) Business Days of receipt of such written notice. Any recalculation of interest or fees required by this provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement, and this provision shall not in any way limit any of the Administrative Agent's, the L/C Issuer’s, or any Lender's other rights under this Agreement. Each determination of the Applicable Margin made by the Administrative Agent in accordance with the foregoing shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and binding on the Borrower and the Lenders if reasonably determined.
