9.Release.
(a)Borrowers and Guarantor, for themselves and for each of their respective heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns, hereby release and waive all claims and/or
Eighth Loan Modification Agreement

12



defenses they now may have against Administrative Agent, Lenders and their respective successors and assigns (collectively, the “Released Parties”) on account of any occurrence relating to the Loan, the Loan Documents and/or the property encumbered by the Security Instruments which accrued prior to the date hereof, including, but not limited to, any claim that Administrative Agent or any Lender (i) breached any obligation to Borrowers and/or Guarantor in connection with the Loan, (ii) was or is in any way involved with Borrowers and/or Guarantor as a partner, joint venturer, or in any other capacity whatsoever other than as a lender, (iii) failed to fund any portion of the Loan or any other sums as required under any document or agreement in reference thereto, or (iv) failed to timely respond to any offers to cure any defaults under any document or agreement executed by Borrowers, Guarantor or any third party or parties in favor of Administrative Agent or any Lender (collectively, the “Released Claims”). This release and waiver shall be effective as of the date of this Agreement and shall be binding upon Borrowers and Guarantor and each of their respective heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of Administrative Agent, Lenders and their respective successors and assigns. The term “Released Parties” as used herein shall include, but shall not be limited to, the present and former officers, directors, employees, agents and attorneys of Administrative Agent and each Lender.
(b)Borrowers and Guarantor each agree and acknowledge that it may hereafter discover facts different from or in addition to those now known or believed to be true regarding the Released Claims and agree that the foregoing releases shall remain in full force and effect, notwithstanding the existence or nature of any such different or additional facts.
(c)Borrowers and Guarantor, each having consulted with counsel, is aware of the contents of Section 1542 of the Civil Code of the State of California. Section 1542 reads as follows:
Section 1542. (General Release – Claims Extinguished.) A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS THAT THE CREDITOR OR RELEASING PARTY DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE AND THAT, IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER, WOULD HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR OR RELEASED PARTY.
Borrowers and Guarantor each expressly waive and relinquish all rights and benefits under that section and any law or legal principle of similar effect in any jurisdiction, with respect to the Released Claims. Borrowers and Guarantor have executed this Agreement voluntarily, with full knowledge of its significance, and with the express intention of effecting the legal consequences provided by a waiver of California Civil Code Section 1542.
10.Course of Dealing; Reservation of Rights. Administrative Agent, Lenders and Obligors hereby acknowledge and agree that:
(a)At no time shall any prior or subsequent course of conduct by Obligors, Administrative Agent or any Lender directly or indirectly limit, impair or otherwise adversely affect any of Administrative Agent’s or any Lender’s rights, interests or remedies in connection with the Loan and the Loan Documents or obligate Administrative Agent or any Lender to agree to, or to negotiate or consider an agreement to, any waiver of any obligation or default by
Eighth Loan Modification Agreement

13



Borrowers under any Loan Document or any amendment to any term or condition of any Loan Document.
(b)This Agreement does not alter, impair or affect in any fashion (or evidence the intent of any party to alter, impair or affect in any fashion) any and all past, present, and future claims, causes of action, damages, demands, costs, and other liabilities of any kind, direct or indirect, known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, which Administrative Agent or the Lenders (or any of them individually), or any of their respective officers, successors, assigns, or representatives, now has or may have in the future against any Obligor or their respective successors and assigns, and all persons acting by through, under, or under the control of any of the foregoing which relate to, arise from, or are connected with the Loans, in each case, except for the modifications to the Loan Agreement and other Loan Documents that are expressly provided in this Agreement. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement and except for the modifications to the Loan Agreement and other Loan Documents expressly provided in this Agreement, Administrative Agent and the Lenders reserve all rights and remedies against the Obligors, and all other terms and conditions of the Loan Agreement and other Loan Documents prior to the date hereof shall remain in full force and effect.
(c)Upon its effectiveness, this Agreement shall constitute a “definitive written agreement” under the Pre-Discussion Agreement. All other prior and subsequent discussions between the Obligors, Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be subject to the Pre-Discussion Agreement, to the extent set forth therein.
11.Renewal; Lien Continuation; No Novation. Borrowers hereby reaffirm the Obligations and promise to pay and perform all Obligations in accordance with the Loan Documents (as expressly modified by this Agreement). The Liens created or secured by the Loan Documents are hereby ratified and confirmed as valid, subsisting and continuing to secure the Obligations. Nothing herein shall in any manner diminish, impair, waive or extinguish the Note, the Loan Documents, the Obligations or the Liens created or secured by the Loan Documents, except for the modifications to the Loan Agreement that are expressly provided for in this Agreement, and Borrowers hereby represent, acknowledge and agree that the Note shall continue to evidence the outstanding balances that are owed to the Lenders from time to time, including with respect to any Additional Loan Proceeds that are advanced by each Lender on or after the date hereof. The execution and delivery of this Agreement shall not constitute a novation of the debt evidenced and secured by the Loan Documents.
12.Default. A default under this Agreement shall constitute a Default under the Note and other Loan Documents, subject to any applicable notice and cure or grace period expressly set forth in the Loan Documents. For avoidance of doubt, this Agreement is a Loan Document.
13.Miscellaneous. To the extent of any conflict between the Loan Documents and this Agreement, this Agreement shall control. Unless specifically modified hereby, all terms of the Loan Documents shall remain in full force and effect. This Agreement (a) shall bind and benefit the parties hereto and their respective heirs, beneficiaries, administrators, executors, receivers, trustees, successors and assigns; (b) shall be governed by the laws of the State of California and United States federal law; and (c) may be executed in several counterparts, and by the parties
Eighth Loan Modification Agreement

14



hereto on separate counterparts, and each counterpart, when executed and delivered, shall constitute an original agreement enforceable against all who signed it without production of or accounting for any other counterpart, and all separate counterparts shall constitute the same agreement.
14.Reaffirmation of Guaranty. Guarantor, by signature below as such, for valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, hereby consents to and joins in this Agreement and hereby declares to and agrees with Administrative Agent and Lenders that the Guaranty is and shall continue in full force and effect for the benefit of Administrative Agent and Lenders with respect to the Obligations, as amended by this Agreement, that there are no offsets, claims, counterclaims, cross-claims or defenses of Guarantor with respect to the Guaranty nor, to Guarantor’s knowledge, with respect to the Obligations, that the Guaranty is not released, diminished or impaired in any way by this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, and that the Guaranty is hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects, in each case, except as expressly modified in Section 4 of this Agreement. Guarantor hereby reaffirms all of the representations and warranties set forth in the Guaranty, except to the extent such representations and warranties are matters which, by their nature, can no longer be true and correct as a result of the passage of time, and except for changes in circumstances arising from actions or events occurring after the date of the Guaranty that do not otherwise constitute a Default thereunder. Guarantor acknowledges that without this consent and reaffirmation, Administrative Agent and Lenders would not execute this Agreement or otherwise consent to its terms.
15.Electronic Signatures. This Agreement may be in the form of an Electronic Record and may be executed using Electronic Signatures (including, without limitation, facsimile and .pdf) and shall be considered an original, and shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a paper record. For purposes hereof, “Electronic Record” and “Electronic Signature” shall have the meanings assigned to them, respectively, by 15 USC §7006, as it may be amended from time to time. Borrowers and Guarantor hereby agree that as soon as reasonably possible, Borrowers and Guarantor will provide an original of this Agreement to Administrative Agent that will include the wet signatures of Borrowers and Guarantor next to any Electronic Signatures.
16.Limited Recourse Provision. Neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any recourse against, nor shall there be any personal liability to, the members, shareholders, partners, beneficial interest holders or any other entity or person in the ownership (directly or indirectly) of any Borrower with respect to the obligations of any Borrower and Guarantor under the Loan. For purposes of clarification, in no event shall the above language limit, reduce or otherwise affect any Borrower’s liability or obligations under the Loan Documents, Guarantor’s liability or obligations under the Guaranty, or Administrative Agent’s and each Lender’s right to exercise any rights or remedies against any collateral securing the Loan.

Amended and Restated Loan Agreement
(Conformed through Eighth Modification)

1.3.1Commitment to Lend. Borrowers agree, on a joint and several basis, to borrow from each Lender, and each Lender severally agrees to make advances of its Pro Rata Share of the Loan proceeds to Borrowers in amounts at any one time outstanding not to exceed such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Loan and (except for Administrative Agent with respect to Administrative Agent Advances), on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement and Exhibit “C”. Each Lender shall fund its Pro Rata Share of each advance of Loan proceeds under this Agreement, provided, however, that no Lender will be required to make an advance in any amount which, when aggregated with all prior advances made by such Lender, would exceed such Lender’s then current Commitment. Lenders’ Commitments to lend shall expire and terminate automatically (a) if the Loan is prepaid in full, (b) upon the occurrence of a Default, and (c) on the Maturity Date. The Loan is not a revolving loan, and amounts repaid may not be re-borrowed.
1.3.2Existing Term Loan. As of the Eighth Modification Date and prior to the disbursement of Additional Loan Proceeds on the Eight Modification Date, if any, the outstanding principal balance is $465,913,173.94 (the “Existing Term Loan”). Borrowers acknowledge and agree that, as of the Eighth Modification Date, there are no offsets, claims, counterclaims, cross-claims or defenses of Borrowers with respect to the Existing Term Loan or the Obligations. Borrower shall not request, and Lenders shall have no obligation, to make any further advances of the Existing Term Loan. The Existing Term Loan is not a revolving loan, and may not be re-borrowed.
1.3.3Additional Availability. From and after the Eighth Modification Date and until the Maturity Date, Borrowers may borrow amounts constituting Additional Loan Proceeds under this Agreement, so long as (x) the requested advance does not exceed the then applicable Additional Availability, and (y) the outstanding principal balance of the Loan does not exceed the amount of the Aggregate Commitments. Additional Loan Proceeds are not revolving loans and may not be re-borrowed. Additional Loan Proceeds shall be disbursed to Borrowers (but not more frequently than three (3) disbursements per month), subject to the following terms and conditions:
(a)no Default or Potential Default shall exist;
(b)Administrative Agent shall have approved (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or conditioned) a Draw Request signed by an Authorized Signer, which Draw Request shall be delivered not less than six (6) Business Days prior to the requested advance (other than the Draw Request to be made on the Eighth Modification Date), and shall (i) specify the Permitted Uses to be funded by the requested Additional Loan Proceeds and the amount required to fund such Permitted Uses, (ii) specify the amount of requested Additional Loan Proceeds, which shall not exceed an amount equal to (A) the amount required to fund such Permitted Uses, minus (B) prior to the first sale of a Property after the Eighth Modification Date in accordance with Section 9.31, any funds in the Cash Sweep Collateral Account (excluding funds already allocated for Pending Disbursements and excluding amounts allocated to the Subaccounts) in excess of $2,000,000, minus (C) any balances held in separate pledged accounts (including but not limited to the Subaccounts) that have been earmarked for such Permitted Uses, and (iii) if such Draw Request is delivered prior to the first sale of a Property after the Eighth Modification Date in accordance with Section 9.31, to the extent there are any funds in the Cash Sweep Collateral Account (excluding funds already allocated for Pending Disbursements) in excess of $2,000,000,

include a concurrent Draw Request for a Cash Sweep Disbursement (in accordance with Section 4.25) in an amount at least equal to such excess;
(c)Administrative Agent shall not have suspended (or such suspension, if any, shall not then exist) the disbursements of Additional Loan Proceeds for a failure of the Properties to satisfy the Ongoing Debt Service Coverage Ratio in accordance with Section 4.22;
(d)Borrowers’ representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects as of the date of the Draw Request and, unless Administrative Agent is notified to the contrary prior to the disbursement of the advance requested, will be so on the date of the disbursement;
(e)after giving effect to the requested disbursement, Borrowers shall have satisfied a Disbursement Debt Service Coverage Ratio of not less than the Minimum Required Disbursement Debt Service Coverage Ratio, as evidenced by a compliance certificate delivered by Borrowers to Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 4.8(f); and
(f)the amount of the requested disbursement shall not (A) exceed the Additional Availability or (B) when added to the outstanding principal balance of the Loan, exceed the amount of the Aggregate Commitments.
The Lenders shall fund any disbursement of Additional Loan Proceeds within five (5) Business Days of the satisfaction of the foregoing conditions, subject to satisfaction of and in accordance with the provisions of Section 1.3.4.
1.3.4Disbursements of Additional Loan Proceeds.
(a)Following receipt of a Draw Request, Administrative Agent shall promptly provide each Lender with a copy of such Draw Request. Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender telephonically (with confirmation by electronic mail) or by electronic mail (with confirmation by telephone) not later than 1:00 p.m. Administrative Agent’s Time one (1) Business Day prior to the advance Funding Date, of its Pro Rata Share of the amount Administrative Agent has determined shall be advanced in connection therewith (the “Advance Amount”). In the case of an advance of Additional Loan Proceeds, each Lender shall make the funds for its Pro Rata Share of the Advance Amount available to Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. Administrative Agent’s Time on the Funding Date thereof. After Administrative Agent’s receipt of the Advance Amount from Lenders, Administrative Agent shall make Additional Loan Proceeds in an amount equal to the Advance Amount (or, if less, such portion of the Advance Amount that shall have been paid to Administrative Agent by Lenders in accordance with the terms hereof) available to Borrowers on the applicable Funding Date by advancing such funds to Borrowers.
(b)Unless Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to 12:00 p.m. (Administrative Agent’s Time) on the proposed advance Funding Date that such Lender will not make available to Administrative Agent such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such Advance Amount, Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such Pro Rata Share available in accordance with, and at the time required by Subsection (a) of this Section) and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to Borrowers a corresponding amount. In such
Amended and Restated Loan Agreement
(Conformed through Eighth Modification)

event, if a Lender has not in fact made its Pro Rata Share of the Advance Amount available to Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender severally agrees to pay to Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to Borrowers to but excluding the date of payment to Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by Administrative Agent in connection with the foregoing. If such Lender shall pay such interest to Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to Borrower the amount of such interest paid by Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays its Pro Rata Share of the applicable Advance Amount to Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such Advance Amount. A notice of Administrative Agent to any Lender with respect to any amount owing under this Subsection shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.
(c)If any Lender makes available to Administrative Agent funds for any Loan advances to be made by such Lender as provided in the foregoing provisions of this Section, and such funds are not made available to Borrower by Administrative Agent because the conditions to the applicable Loan advance set forth in Section 1.3.3 are not satisfied in accordance with the terms hereof, Administrative Agent shall return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender, without interest.
(d)The obligations of Lenders hereunder to make Loan advances and to make payments pursuant to Section 8.7 are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan advance or to make any payment under Section 8.7 on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan advance or to make its payment under Section 8.7.
(e)Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for any Loan advance in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan advance in any particular place or manner.
1.4Interest Rate. The unpaid principal balance of the Loan from day to day outstanding which is not past due, shall bear interest at a rate of interest per annum equal to the Monthly SOFR Rate, computed as provided in Section 1.4.3 below. The Monthly SOFR Rate shall be adjusted on each Interest Rate Change Date. The Monthly SOFR Rate shall remain fixed until the next Interest Rate Change Date.
1.4.1Intentionally Omitted.
1.4.2Intentionally Omitted.
1.4.3Computations and Determinations; Conforming Changes. All computations of interest for the Base Rate (to the extent applicable) shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed. All other computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed (which results in more fees

(Conformed through Eighth Modification)

or interest, as applicable, being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year). Interest shall accrue on each advance of the Loan for the day on which the advance is made, and shall not accrue on an advance, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the advance or such portion is paid so long as the payment is made in compliance with Section 1.7(a), provided that any advance that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall bear interest for one day. Each determination by Administrative Agent of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. The books and records of Administrative Agent shall be conclusive evidence, in the absence of manifest error, of all sums owing to Lenders from time to time under the Loan Documents, but the failure to record any such information shall not limit or affect the obligations of Borrowers under the Loan Documents. With respect to SOFR or Monthly SOFR or any Successor Rate, Administrative Agent will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided that, with respect to any such amendment effected, Administrative Agent shall post each such amendment implementing such Conforming Changes to Borrowers and the Lenders reasonably promptly after such amendment becomes effective. Administrative Agent does not warrant, nor accept responsibility, nor shall Administrative Agent have any liability with respect to the administration, submission or any other matter related to any reference rate referred to herein or with respect to any rate (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the selection of such rate and any related spread or other adjustment) that is an alternative or replacement for or successor to any such rate (including any Successor Rate) (or any component of any of the foregoing) or the effect of any of the foregoing, or of any Conforming Changes. Administrative Agent and its affiliates or other related entities may engage in transactions or other activities that affect any reference rate referred to herein, or any alternative, successor or replacement rate (including any Successor Rate) (or any component of any of the foregoing) or any related spread or other adjustments thereto, in each case, in a manner adverse to Borrowers. Administrative Agent may select information sources or services in its reasonable discretion to ascertain any reference rate referred to herein or any alternative, successor or replacement rate (including any Successor Rate) (or any component of any of the foregoing), in each case pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and shall have no liability to Borrowers, any Lender or any other person or entity for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, punitive, incidental or consequential damages, costs, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise and whether at law or in equity), for any error or other action or omission related to or affecting the selection, determination, or calculation of any rate (or component thereof) provided by any such information source or service.
1.4.4Late Charge. If Borrowers shall fail to make any payment due hereunder or under the terms of any Note (other than the Principal Debt due on the Maturity Date) within fifteen (15) days after the date such payment is due, Borrowers shall pay to Administrative Agent on demand a late charge equal to four percent (4%) of such payment. Such fifteen (15) day period shall not be construed as in any way extending the due date of any payment. The “late charge” is imposed for the purpose of defraying the expenses of a Lender incident to handling such defaulting payment. This charge shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other amount that Lenders may be entitled to receive or action that Administrative Agent and Lenders may be authorized to take as a result of such late payment, including any other remedy Lenders may have and any fees and charges of

(Conformed through Eighth Modification)

any agents or attorneys which Administrative Agent or, subject to the provisions of Section 4.15, Lenders may employ upon the occurrence of a Default, whether authorized herein or by Law.
1.4.5Default Rate. After the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default (including the expiration of any applicable cure period), upon the request of the Required Lenders, Administrative Agent, without notice or demand, may raise the rate of interest accruing on the Principal Debt under any Loan Document to the lesser of (i) the maximum non-usurious rate of interest allowed under applicable law, or (ii) three hundred (300) basis points above the rate of interest otherwise applicable (“Default Rate”), independent of whether Administrative Agent accelerates the Principal Debt under any Loan Document.
1.5Prepayment.
(a)Borrowers may, upon notice to Administrative Agent, at any time or from time to time, voluntarily prepay the outstanding Principal Debt, in whole or in part without premium or penalty, but subject to compliance with Section 1.5(c) and 2.6, provided that: (i) such notice must be in a form acceptable to Administrative Agent and be received by Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. Administrative Agent’s Time (A) two (2) Business Days prior to any date of prepayment of Monthly SOFR Principal, (B) and on the date of prepayment of any Base Rate Principal, if any; and (ii) any prepayment of Monthly SOFR Principal shall be in a principal amount of $2,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof or, in each case, if less, the entire principal amount of the Loan then outstanding. Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment. Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of each such notice, and of the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such prepayment. If such notice is given by Borrowers, Borrowers shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein. Any prepayment of the Loan shall be accompanied by all accrued interest on the amount prepaid, together with any other sums which have become due to Administrative Agent and Lenders under the Loan Documents on or before the date of prepayment but have not been paid. Subject to Section 8.13, each such prepayment shall be applied to the Loan obligations owing to the Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any Loan Document, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing as of the date that any prepayment is made, Administrative Agent may apply such prepayment to all or such portions of the Indebtedness as Administrative Agent determines in its sole discretion.
(b)No yield maintenance premium or other premium or penalty shall be due in connection with any prepayment made pursuant to this Section 1.5, provided that Borrowers shall pay to Administrative Agent, concurrently with such prepayment, all Consequential Losses, and all other sums due pursuant to the Loan Documents in connection with such prepayment.
(c)Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else to the contrary in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, the Exit Fee shall be payable on the Maturity Date, any earlier date on which the Obligations are prepaid in full, or as otherwise required under the Fee Letter, in such amounts as required under the Fee Letter. For the avoidance of doubt, no portion of the Exit Fee shall be payable upon any mandatory partial prepayment or partial prepayment.

(j)if sources in addition to the Dedicated Sources will be necessary to fund all of the uses that are projected in the financial model and projection described in clause (i) above, then Borrowers shall have delivered to Administrative Agent, for deposit in the Cash Sweep Collateral Account (or other controlled account if directed by Administrative Agent), an amount in cash sufficient to fund (together with the Dedicated Sources) the uses that are projected in such model;

(l)Borrowers shall have paid to Administrative Agent, for the Pro Rata benefit of the Lenders, an extension fee equal to twenty-five (25) basis points on the Aggregate Commitments as of the then current Stated Maturity Date (after giving effect to any reduction in the Aggregate Commitments pursuant to clause (e) above or otherwise); and
(m)whether or not the extension becomes effective, Borrowers shall pay all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Administrative Agent in connection with the proposed extension (pre- and post-closing), including appraisal fees and reasonable attorneys’ fees actually incurred by Administrative Agent; all such costs and expenses incurred up to the time of Administrative Agent’s written agreement to the extension shall be due and payable on or prior to Administrative Agent’s execution of that agreement (or if the proposed extension does not become effective, then upon demand by Administrative Agent), and any future failure to pay such amounts shall constitute a Default.
1.7Payments.
(a)All payments by Borrowers shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by Borrowers hereunder shall be made to Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at Administrative Agent’s Office in U.S. Dollars and in immediately available funds not later than 12:00 p.m. (Administrative Agent’s Time) on the date specified herein. Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its Pro Rata Share (or other applicable share as provided herein) of such payment in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender’s Lending Office. All payments received by Administrative Agent after 12:00 p.m. (Administrative Agent’s Time) shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. If any payment to be made by Borrowers shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be.
(b)For the avoidance of doubt, Administrative Agent will distribute payments to each Lender, (i) on the date of receipt, if Administrative Agent receives such funds on or before 12:00 p.m. (Administrative Agent’s Time), or (ii) on the Business Day following the date of receipt, if Administrative Agent receives such funds after 12:00 p.m. (Administrative Agent’s Time). If Administrative Agent fails to timely pay any amount to any Lender in accordance with this Section 1.7, Administrative Agent shall pay to such Lender interest on such amount at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, for each day from the day such amount was to be paid until it is paid to such Lender. Unless Administrative Agent shall have received notice from any Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to Administrative Agent for the account of Lenders hereunder that Borrowers will not make such payment, Administrative Agent may assume that Borrowers have made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to Lenders the amount due. With respect to any payment

that Administrative Agent makes for the account of Lenders hereunder as to which Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that any of the following applies (such payment referred to as the “Rescindable Amount”): (1) Borrowers have not in fact made such payment; (2) Administrative Agent has made a payment in excess of the amount so paid by Borrowers (whether or not then owed); or (3) Administrative Agent has for any reason otherwise erroneously made such payment; then each of the Lenders severally agrees to repay to Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the Rescindable Amount so distributed to such Lender immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.
(c)A notice of Administrative Agent to any Lender or to any Borrower with respect to any amount owing under this Section 1.7 shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.
1.8Evidence of Debt. Amounts of the Loan funded by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender and by Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, of the amounts of the Loan funded by Lenders to Borrowers, the interest and payments thereon, and all other sums owing to Administrative Agent and each Lender from time to time under the Loan Documents. Any failure to so record such information or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of Borrowers hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Indebtedness or the obligations of any Property under the Loan Documents. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. Each Lender may attach schedules to its Note(s) and endorse thereon the date, amount and maturity of the applicable Note and payments with respect thereto.
1.9Other Fees.
1.9.1Exit Fee. Borrowers shall pay Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, the Exit Fee as and when required under the Fee Letter, which Exit Fee is in the amount of $5,202,282.94 (which amount includes the deferred upfront fee set forth in the Fee Letter), is fully earned as of the Eighth Modification Date, and payable on the earliest of (a) the Maturity Date, (b) any earlier date on which the Commitments are cancelled and the entire outstanding amount of the Loan becomes due and payable, whether by acceleration (including upon a bankruptcy filing) or otherwise and (c) any earlier date on which the Loan is paid in full and terminated.
1.9.2Fee Letter. Without limiting the foregoing, Borrowers shall pay all fees payable by Borrowers under the Fee Letter, as and when required thereunder.

(a)Payments Free of Taxes; Obligation to Withhold; Payments on Account of Taxes.
(i)Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of Borrowers under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable Laws. If any applicable Laws (as determined in the good faith discretion of Administrative Agent) require the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by Administrative Agent or any Borrower, then Administrative Agent or such Borrower shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding, upon the basis of the information and documentation to be delivered pursuant to Section 2.1(e).
(ii)If any Borrower or Administrative Agent shall be required by the Code to withhold or deduct any Taxes, including both United States Federal backup withholding and withholding taxes, from any payment, then (A) Administrative Agent shall withhold or make such deductions as are determined by Administrative Agent to be required based upon the information and documentation it has received pursuant to Section 2.1(e), (B) Administrative Agent shall timely pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with the Code, and (C) to the extent that the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes, the sum payable by such Borrower, as applicable, shall be increased as necessary so that after any required withholding or the making of all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.1) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deduction been made.
(iii)If any Borrower or Administrative Agent shall be required by any applicable Laws other than the Code to withhold or deduct any Taxes from any payment, then (A) such Borrower or Administrative Agent, as required by such Laws, shall withhold or make such deductions as are determined by it to be required based upon the information and documentation it has received pursuant to Section 2.1(e), (B) such Borrower or Administrative Agent, to the extent required by such Laws, shall timely pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with such Laws, and (C) to the extent that the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes, the sum payable by such Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after any required withholding or the making of all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.1) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deduction been made.
(b)Payment of Other Taxes by Borrowers. Without limiting the provisions of Section 2.1(a) above, Borrowers shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law, or at the option of Administrative Agent or any Lender reimburse

(i)Each Borrower shall, and does hereby indemnify each Recipient, and shall make payment in respect thereof within ten (10 ) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.1) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to Administrative Agent), or by Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Borrower shall, and does hereby indemnify Administrative Agent, and shall make payment in respect thereof within fifteen (15) days after demand therefor, for any amount which a Lender for any reason fails to pay indefeasibly to Administrative Agent as required pursuant to Section 2.1(c)(ii).
(ii)Each Lender shall, and does hereby, severally indemnify, and shall make payment in respect thereof within fifteen (15) days after demand therefor, (A) Administrative Agent against any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that a Borrower has not already indemnified Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of any Borrower to do so), (B) Administrative Agent and each Borrower, as applicable, against any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 9.4(d) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (C) Administrative Agent and each Borrower against any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by Administrative Agent or any Borrower in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender as the case may be, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due to Administrative Agent under this Section 2.1(c)(ii).
(d)Evidence of Payments. Upon written request by any Borrower or Administrative Agent, as the case may be, after any payment of Taxes by any Borrower or by Administrative Agent to a Governmental Authority as provided in this Section 2.1, such Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent or Administrative Agent shall deliver to such Borrower, as the case may be, the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing

such payment, a copy of any return required by Laws to report such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to such Borrower or Administrative Agent, as the case may be.
(e)Status of Lenders; Tax Documentation.
(i)Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to Borrowers and Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by any Borrower or Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by any Borrower or Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by any Borrower or Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable Law or reasonably requested by any Borrower or Administrative Agent as will enable such Borrower or Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in clauses (A), (B) and (D) of Section 2.1(e)(ii)) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.
(ii)Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that any Borrower is a U.S. Person,
(A)any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to Borrowers and Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable written request of any Borrower or Administrative Agent), executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding Tax;
(B)any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Borrowers and Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable written request of any Borrower or Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:
(I)in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BENE (or W-8BEN, as applicable) establishing an exemption

from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BENE (or W-8BEN, as applicable) establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;
(II)executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI;
(III)in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit “K-1” to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of any Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed copies of IRS W-8BENE (or W-8BEN, as applicable); or
(IV)to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BENE (or W-8BEN, as applicable), a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit “K-2” or Exhibit “K-3”, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit “K-4” on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner.
(C)any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Borrowers and Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable written request of any Borrower or Administrative Agent), executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable Law to permit Borrowers or Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and
(D)if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or

(Conformed through Eighth Modification)

15



1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to Borrowers and Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by Law and at such time or times reasonably requested by any Borrower or Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by any Borrower or Administrative Agent as may be necessary for any Borrower and Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the Closing Date.
(iii)Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered pursuant to this Section 2.1 expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify Borrowers and Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.
(f)Treatment of Certain Refunds. Unless required by applicable Laws, at no time shall Administrative Agent have any obligation to file for or otherwise pursue on behalf of a Lender or have any obligation to pay to any Lender, any refund of Taxes withheld or deducted from funds paid for the account of such Lender. If any Recipient determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by Borrowers with respect to which any Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.1, it shall pay to Borrowers an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by any Borrower under this Section 2.1 with respect to the Taxes giving right to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) incurred by such Recipient, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that each Borrower, upon the written request of the Recipient, agrees to repay the amount paid over to such Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Recipient in the event the Recipient is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.1(f), in no event will the applicable Recipient be required to pay any amount to any Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.1(f) the payment of which would place the Recipient in a less favorable net after-Tax position than such Recipient would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This Section 2.1(f) shall not be construed to require any Recipient to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to any Borrower or any other Person.
(g)Intentionally Omitted.
(h)Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.1 shall survive the resignation or replacement of Administrative Agent, or the assignment of rights by, or the
Amended and Restated Loan Agreement
(Conformed through Eighth Modification)

16



replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments, the termination of this Agreement and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations.
2.2Illegality. If any Lender determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Loan advances whose interest is determined by reference to SOFR or Monthly SOFR, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon SOFR or Monthly SOFR, then, upon notice thereof by such Lender to Borrowers (through Administrative Agent), any obligation of such Lender to maintain Monthly SOFR Principal shall be suspended, in each case until such Lender notifies Administrative Agent and Borrowers that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice and demand from such Lender (with a copy to Administrative Agent), Borrowers at their option shall either prepay or convert all Monthly SOFR Principal owed to such Lender to Base Rate Principal; provided, however, if and to the extent such Lender has determined that a Law has made it unlawful to convert all such Monthly SOFR Principal to Base Rate Principal, or any Governmental Authority has asserted that such a conversion is unlawful, Borrowers shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to Administrative Agent), prepay all such Monthly SOFR Principal owed to such Lender. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, Borrowers shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted, together with any additional amounts, if any, required pursuant to Section 2.6.
2.3Inability to Determine Rates. If (a) Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that (i) no Successor Rate for Monthly SOFR has been determined in accordance with Section 2.4, and the circumstances under Section 2.4(a) or the Scheduled Unavailability Date has occurred (as applicable) with respect to SOFR or Monthly SOFR, or (ii) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining SOFR or Monthly SOFR for any determination date(s) or requested payment period, as applicable, with respect to any proposed or existing advance of the Loan; or (b) Administrative Agent or Required Lenders determine that for any reason that Monthly SOFR for any determination date(s) does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding or maintaining any proposed or existing advance of the Loan, Administrative Agent will promptly so notify Borrowers and each Lender. Thereafter, the obligation of Lenders to maintain Monthly SOFR Principal shall be suspended, in each case until Administrative Agent, or, in the case of a determination by Required Lenders described in clause (b) above, until Administrative Agent, upon instruction of Required Lenders, revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, (1) Borrowers may revoke any pending request for a borrowing at the Monthly SOFR Rate (to the extent of the affected Loan advances) or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request to borrow at the Base Rate if no election is made by Borrowers by the date that is three (3) Business Days after receipt of such notice and (2) all amounts from day to day outstanding which are not past due shall bear interest at the Base Rate.
2.4Successor Rate.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, if Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error), or Borrowers or Required Lenders notify Administrative Agent (with, in the case of
Amended and Restated Loan Agreement
(Conformed through Eighth Modification)

17



Required Lenders, a copy to Borrowers) that Borrowers or Required Lenders (as applicable) have determined, that:
(a)adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining Monthly SOFR, including, without limitation, because one (1) month interest periods of the Term SOFR Screen Rate are not available or published on a current basis and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary; or
(b)the Applicable Authority has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which one (1) month interest periods of term SOFR or the Term SOFR Screen Rate shall or will no longer be representative or made available, or permitted to be used for determining the interest rate of U.S. Dollar-denominated syndicated loans, or shall or will otherwise cease, provided that, at the time of such statement, there is no successor administrator that is satisfactory to Administrative Agent, that will continue to provide such representative one (1) month interest periods of term SOFR after such specific date (the latest date on which one (1) month interest periods of term SOFR or the Term SOFR Screen Rate are no longer representative or available permanently or indefinitely, the “Scheduled Unavailability Date”);
then, on a date and time determined by Administrative Agent (any such date, the “Monthly SOFR Replacement Date”), which date shall be on an Interest Rate Change Date or on the relevant interest payment date for interest calculated, as applicable, and, solely with respect to clause (b) above, no later than the Scheduled Unavailability Date, Monthly SOFR will be replaced hereunder and under any Loan Document with Daily Simple SOFR for any payment period for interest calculated that can be determined by Administrative Agent, in each case, without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document (the “Successor Rate”).
If the Successor Rate is Daily Simple SOFR, all interest payments will be payable on a monthly basis.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, (i) if Administrative Agent determines that Daily Simple SOFR is not available on or prior to the Monthly SOFR Replacement Date, or (ii) if the events or circumstances of the type described in clauses (a) or (b) above have occurred with respect to the Successor Rate then in effect, then in each case, Administrative Agent and Borrowers may amend this Agreement and the other Loan Documents solely for the purpose of replacing Monthly SOFR or any then current Successor Rate in accordance with this Section 2.4 on an Interest Rate Change Date or on the relevant interest payment date for interest calculated, as applicable, with an alternative benchmark rate giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar U.S. Dollar-denominated credit facilities syndicated and agented in the United States for such alternative benchmark and, in each case, including any mathematical or other adjustments to such benchmark giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar U.S. Dollar-denominated credit facilities syndicated and agented in the United States for such benchmark. For the avoidance of doubt, any such proposed rate and adjustments, shall constitute a “Successor Rate”. Any such amendment shall become effective at 5:00 p.m. Administrative Agent’s Time on the fifth (5th) Business Day after Administrative Agent shall have posted such proposed amendment to all Lenders and Borrowers unless, prior to such
Amended and Restated Loan Agreement

time, Lenders comprising the Required Lenders have delivered to Administrative Agent written notice that such Required Lenders object to such amendment.
Administrative Agent will promptly (in one or more notices) notify Borrowers and each Lender of the implementation of any Successor Rate.
Any Successor Rate shall be applied in a manner consistent with market practice; provided that to the extent such market practice is not administratively feasible for Administrative Agent, such Successor Rate shall be applied in a manner as otherwise reasonably determined by Administrative Agent.
Notwithstanding anything else herein, if at any time any Successor Rate as so determined would otherwise be less than zero percent (0.00%), the Successor Rate will be deemed to be zero percent (0.00%) for the purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
In connection with the implementation of a Successor Rate, Administrative Agent will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement; provided that, with respect to any such amendment effected, Administrative Agent shall post each such amendment implementing such Conforming Changes to Borrowers and the Lenders reasonably promptly after such amendment becomes effective.
2.5Increased Costs.
(a)Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall:
(i)impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement );
(ii)subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or
(iii)impose on any Lender any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or any Note or Monthly SOFR Advances made by such Lender;
and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Loan advance (or of maintaining its obligation to maintain any such Loan advance), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then Borrowers will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(Conformed through Eighth Modification)

19



(b)Capital Requirements. If any Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or any Lending Office of such Lender or such Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, any Note, the Commitments of such Lender or the advances made by such Lender, to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time Borrowers will pay to such Lender, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.
(c)Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in Section 2.4(a) or Section 2.4(b) and delivered to Borrowers shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Borrowers shall pay such Lender, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) Business Days after receipt thereof.
(d)Delay in Responses. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.4 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation, provided that Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.4 for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than six (6) months prior to the date that such Lender notifies Borrowers of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the six (6) month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof). Subject to the foregoing, all of Borrowers’ obligations under this Section shall survive payment in full, satisfaction or discharge of the Indebtedness, the resignation or removal of Administrative Agent or replacement of any Lender, and any release, enforcement or termination of this Agreement or of any other Loan Documents.
2.6Compensation for Losses. Within ten (10) days of written demand by any Lender (with a copy to Administrative Agent) from time to time (and at the time of any prepayment), Borrowers shall compensate such Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense incurred by it (collectively, “Consequential Losses”) as a result of:
(a)any continuation, conversion, payment or prepayment of any Principal Debt bearing interest at a Monthly SOFR Rate or, if applicable, a Successor Rate on a day other than the last day of the interest period therefor (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise, including, but not limited to, acceleration upon any transfer or conveyance of any right, title or interest in the Property giving Administrative Agent on behalf of Lenders the right to accelerate the maturity of the Loan);
(b)any failure by Borrowers (for a reason other than the failure of such Lender to make an advance at a Monthly SOFR Rate or, if applicable, a Successor Rate) to prepay, continue or convert any Principal Debt bearing interest at a Monthly SOFR Rate or, if applicable, a Successor

(Conformed through Eighth Modification)

Rate on the date or in the amount notified by Borrowers in any rollover/conversion notice or otherwise; or
(c)any assignment of Principal Debt bearing interest at a Monthly SOFR Rate or, if applicable, a Successor Rate other than on the last day of the interest period therefor as a result of a request by Borrowers pursuant to Section 9.11;
including any loss of anticipated profits and any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Principal Debt bearing interest at a Monthly SOFR Rate or, if applicable, a Successor Rate or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained. Borrowers shall also pay any customary administrative fees charged by such Lender in connection with the foregoing.
The amounts payable under this Section shall never be less than zero or greater than is permitted by applicable Law. For the avoidance of doubt, no amounts will be owing under this Section in connection with the prepayment of any Base Rate Principal, if applicable, or any Principal Debt bearing interest at a Daily Simple SOFR-related rate (if any).
2.7Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.
(a)Designation of a Different Lending Office. Each Lender may make any advance to Borrower through any Lending Office, provided that the exercise of this option shall not affect the obligation of Borrower to repay the advance in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.5, or requires Borrowers to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.1, or if any Lender gives a notice pursuant to Section 2.2, then at the written request of Borrowers such Lender shall, as applicable, use reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office for funding or booking its advances hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.1 or 2.5 in the future, or eliminate the need for the notice pursuant to Section 2.2, and (ii) in each case, would not subject such Lender, as the case may be, to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender, as the case may be. Borrowers hereby agree to pay all reasonable and documented costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment within ten (10) days of written demand of such Lender.
(b)Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.5, or if Borrowers are required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.1 and, in each case, such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different lending office in accordance with Section 2.7(a), Borrowers may replace such Lender in accordance with Section 9.11.
2.8Survival. All of Borrowers’ obligations under this Article 2 shall survive the resignation or replacement of Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments, the termination of this Agreement and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations, and shall not be waived by

(Conformed through Eighth Modification)

any delay by Administrative Agent or Lenders in seeking payment and performance of such obligations of Borrower under this Article 2.
ARTICLE 3 – INTENTIONALLY OMITTED
ARTICLE 4 – AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS
Each Borrower covenants as of the Closing Date and until such time as all Obligations shall be paid and performed in full, that:
4.1Compliance with Laws; Use of Proceeds. Each Borrower shall comply with all Laws and all orders, writs, injunctions, decrees and demands of any court or any Governmental Authority affecting such Borrower or the Property of such Borrower. Borrowers shall use all proceeds of the Loan for business purposes which are not in contravention of any Law or any Loan Document.
4.2Inspections; Cooperation. Each Borrower shall permit representatives of Administrative Agent to enter upon the Land of such Borrower, to inspect the Improvements of such Borrower and any and all materials to be used in connection with any construction at the Property of such Borrower, including any construction of tenant improvements, to examine all detailed plans and shop drawings and similar materials as well as all books and records of such Borrower (regardless of where maintained) and all supporting vouchers and data and to make copies and extracts therefrom and to discuss the affairs, finances and accounts pertaining to the Loan and the Improvements of such Borrower with representatives of such Borrower. Each Borrower shall at all times cooperate and use commercially reasonable efforts to cause each and every one of its contractors, subcontractors and material suppliers to cooperate with the representatives of Administrative Agent in connection with or in aid of the performance of Administrative Agent’s functions under this Agreement. Except in the event of an emergency, Administrative Agent shall give a Borrower at least twenty-four hours’ notice by telephone in each instance before entering upon the Land of such Borrower and/or exercising any other rights granted in this Section.
4.3Payment and Performance of Contractual Obligations. Subject to the terms of Section 5.1 of the Security Instruments, each Borrower shall perform in a timely manner all of its obligations under any and all contracts and agreements (in accordance with the terms thereof) related to any construction activities at the Property of such Borrower or the maintenance or operation of the Improvements of such Borrower, and such Borrower will pay before they become delinquent all bills for services or labor performed and materials supplied in connection with such construction, maintenance and/or operation. Within thirty (30) days after the filing of any mechanic’s lien or other lien or encumbrance against the Property of any Borrower, such Borrower will promptly discharge the same by payment or filing a bond or otherwise as permitted by Law. So long as Administrative Agent’s and Lenders’ security has been protected by the filing of a bond or otherwise in a manner reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion, each Borrower shall have the right to contest in good faith any claim, lien or encumbrance, provided that such Borrower does so diligently and without prejudice to Administrative Agent or any Lender or delay in completing construction of any tenant improvements.

4.4Insurance. Each Borrower shall maintain the following insurance at its sole cost and expense:
(a)Insurance against Casualty to the Property of such Borrower under a policy or policies covering such risks as are presently included in “special form” (also known as “all risk”) coverage, including such risks as are ordinarily insured against by similar businesses, but in any event including fire, lightning, windstorm, hail, explosion, riot, riot attending a strike, civil commotion, damage from aircraft, smoke, vandalism, malicious mischief and acts of terrorism. Such insurance shall name Administrative Agent as the mortgagee and loss payee. Unless otherwise agreed in writing by Administrative Agent, such insurance shall be for the full insurable value of such Property on a replacement cost basis, with a deductible amount, if any, reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent. No policy of insurance shall be written such that the proceeds thereof will produce less than the minimum coverage required by this Section by reason of co-insurance provisions or otherwise. The term “full insurable value” means one hundred percent (100%) of the actual replacement cost of such Property, including tenant improvements (excluding excavation costs and costs of underground flues, pipes, drains and other uninsurable items). For purposes of the foregoing requirements, the policy coverages and amounts existing at the closing of the Loan shall satisfy the property insurance requirements in effect as of the Closing Date.
(b)Commercial (also known as comprehensive) general liability insurance on an “occurrence” basis against claims for “personal injury” liability and liability for death, bodily injury and damage to property, products and completed operations, in limits satisfactory to Administrative Agent with respect to any one occurrence and the aggregate of all occurrences during any given annual policy period. Such insurance shall name Administrative Agent as an additional insured.
(c)Workers’ compensation insurance for all employees of such Borrower in such amount as is required by Law and including employer’s liability insurance, if required by Administrative Agent.
(d)During any period of construction of tenant improvements, each Borrower shall maintain, or cause others to maintain, such insurance as may be required by Administrative Agent of the type customarily carried in the case of similar construction for one hundred percent (100%) of the full replacement cost of materials stored at or upon the Property of such Borrower. During any period of other construction upon such Property, such Borrower shall maintain, or cause others to maintain, builder’s risk insurance (non-reporting form) of the type customarily carried in the case of similar construction for one hundred percent (100%) of the full replacement cost of work in place and materials stored at or upon such Property.
(e)If at any time any portion of any structure on the Property of a Borrower is insurable against Casualty by flood and is located in a Special Flood Hazard Area under the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as amended, a flood insurance policy on the structure and any Borrower owned contents in form and amount acceptable to Administrative Agent but in no amount less than the amount sufficient to meet the requirements of applicable Law as such requirements may from time to time be in effect.

(f)Loss of rental value insurance or business interruption insurance in an amount equal to twelve (12) months of the projected gross income of the Property of such Borrower and an extended period of indemnity endorsement providing an additional twelve (12) months’ loss of rental value or business interruption insurance after such Property has been restored or until the projected gross income returns to the level that existed prior to the loss, whichever is first to occur.
(g)The Environmental Insurance Policy.
Such other and further insurance as may be required from time to time by Administrative Agent in order to comply with regular requirements and practices of Administrative Agent in similar transactions including, if required by Administrative Agent, boiler and machinery insurance, pollution liability insurance, wind insurance and earthquake insurance, so long as any such insurance is generally available at commercially reasonable premiums as determined by Administrative Agent from time to time.
Each policy of insurance (i) shall be issued by one or more insurance companies each of which must have an A.M. Best Company financial and performance rating of A-IX or better and are qualified or authorized by the Laws of the State to assume the risks covered by such policy, (ii) with respect to the insurance described under the preceding Subsections (a), (d), (e) and (f), shall have attached thereto standard non-contributing, non-reporting mortgagee clauses in favor of and entitling Administrative Agent without contribution to collect any and all proceeds payable under such insurance, either as sole payee or as joint payee with the applicable Borrower, (iii) shall provide that such policy shall not be canceled or modified for nonpayment of premiums without at least ten (10) days’ prior written Notice to Administrative Agent, or for any other reason without at least thirty (30) days’ prior written Notice to Administrative Agent, and (iv) shall provide that any loss otherwise payable thereunder shall be payable notwithstanding any act or negligence of any Borrower which might, absent such agreement, result in a forfeiture of all or a part of such insurance payment. Each Borrower shall promptly pay all premiums prior to delinquency on such insurance and, not less than five (5) days prior to the expiration dates of each such policy, such Borrower will deliver to Administrative Agent evidence satisfactory to Administrative Agent of the renewal or replacement of such policy continuing insurance in the form required herein and payment of premiums for any such policies within ten (10) days of the availability of same. Each Borrower will immediately give Notice to Administrative Agent of any cancellation of, or change in, any insurance policy. If any Borrower fails to maintain any insurance and pay the premiums for such insurance as required by this Agreement, Administrative Agent may obtain such insurance or pay such premiums on behalf of such Borrower, provided that Administrative Agent has provided to such Borrower not less than two (2) Business Days’ prior Notice. Each Borrower will promptly pay to Administrative Agent all amounts paid by Administrative Agent for the foregoing. Such amounts shall be secured by the Security Instruments and Pledge Agreements. Administrative Agent shall not, because of accepting, rejecting, approving or obtaining insurance, incur any liability for (A) the existence, nonexistence, form or legal sufficiency thereof, (B) the solvency of any insurer, or (C) the payment of losses. Each Borrower may satisfy any insurance requirement hereunder by providing one or more “blanket” insurance policies, subject to Administrative Agent’s approval in each instance as to limits, coverages, forms, deductibles, inception and expiration dates, and cancellation provisions (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld). Any material waivers or reductions in the requirements of the insurance

required under this Section 4.4 shall require the approval of the Required Lenders (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). In no event shall any finance company (or finance companies) entering into any insurance premium financing arrangement applicable to any Borrower have any collateral from Borrowers for Borrowers’ obligations (or allocable share of the obligations) under such arrangement other than their respective interest in any unearned insurance premiums, and in no event shall any such arrangement limit the rights of Administrative Agent under the mortgagee endorsement applicable to the insurance policies maintained for the Properties or Borrowers or as loss payee or a named or additional insured thereunder or otherwise under the provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document.
4.5Adjustment of Condemnation and Insurance Claims. Each Borrower shall give prompt Notice to Administrative Agent of any Casualty or any Condemnation or threatened Condemnation with respect to the Property of such Borrower. Administrative Agent is authorized, at its sole and absolute option and upon prior written Notice to a Borrower, to commence, appear in and prosecute, in its own or such Borrower’s name, any action or proceeding relating to any Condemnation or Casualty, and to make proof of loss for and to settle or compromise any Claim in connection therewith. In such case, Administrative Agent shall have the right to receive all Condemnation Awards and Insurance Proceeds, and may deduct therefrom all of its expenses. However, so long as no Default has occurred and the applicable Borrower is diligently pursuing its rights and remedies with respect to a Claim, Administrative Agent will obtain such Borrower’s written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) before making proof of loss for or settling or compromising such Claim. Each Borrower agrees to diligently assert its rights and remedies with respect to each Claim and to promptly pursue the settlement and compromise of each Claim subject to Administrative Agent’s approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided, however, that the approval of the Required Lenders shall also be required (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) if the amount of the Claim is equal to or greater than Ten Million and No/100 Dollars ($10,000,000.00). If, prior to the receipt by Administrative Agent of any Condemnation Award or Insurance Proceeds, the subject Property shall have been sold pursuant to the provisions of the applicable Security Instrument, Administrative Agent shall have the right to receive such funds (a) to the extent of any deficiency found to be due upon such sale with interest thereon (whether or not a deficiency judgment on such Security Instrument shall have been sought or recovered or denied), and (b) to the extent necessary to reimburse Administrative Agent for its expenses. If any Condemnation Awards or Insurance Proceeds are paid to any Borrower, such Borrower shall receive the same in trust for Administrative Agent. Within ten (10) days after any Borrower’s receipt of any Condemnation Awards or Insurance Proceeds, such Borrower shall deliver such awards or proceeds to Administrative Agent in the form in which they were received, together with any endorsements or documents that may be necessary to effectively negotiate or transfer the same to Administrative Agent. Each Borrower agrees to execute and deliver from time to time, upon the written request of Administrative Agent, such further instruments or documents as may be reasonably requested by Administrative Agent to confirm the grant and assignment to Administrative Agent of any Condemnation Awards or Insurance Proceeds.
4.6Utilization of Net Proceeds.

Amended and Restated Loan Agreement
(Conformed through Eighth Modification)

25



(a)Net Proceeds must be utilized either for payment of the Obligations or for the restoration of the applicable Property. Net Proceeds shall be utilized for the restoration of the applicable Property, but only if no Default shall exist and only if in the reasonable judgment of Administrative Agent (i) there has been no material adverse change in the financial viability of the applicable Improvements and (ii) the Net Proceeds, together with other funds deposited with Administrative Agent for that purpose, are sufficient to pay the cost of the restoration pursuant to a budget and plans and specifications reasonably approved by Administrative Agent. Otherwise, Net Proceeds shall be utilized for payment of the Obligations.
(b)If Net Proceeds are to be utilized for the restoration of a Property, the Net Proceeds, together with any other funds deposited with Administrative Agent for that purpose, must be deposited in a Borrowers’ Deposit Account, which shall be an interest-bearing account, with all accrued interest to become part of the applicable Borrower’s deposit. Each Borrower agrees that it shall include all interest and earnings on any such deposit as its income (and, if such Borrower is a partnership or other pass-through entity, the income of its partners, members or beneficiaries, as the case may be), and shall be the owner of all funds on deposit in the Borrowers’ Deposit Account for federal and applicable state and local tax purposes. Administrative Agent shall have the exclusive right to manage and control all funds in the Borrowers’ Deposit Account, but Administrative Agent shall have no fiduciary duty with respect to such funds. Administrative Agent will advance the deposited funds from time to time to the applicable Borrower for the payment of costs of restoration of the Property of such Borrower upon presentation of evidence acceptable to Administrative Agent that such restoration has been completed satisfactorily and lien-free. Any account fees and charges may be deducted from the balance, if any, in the Borrowers’ Deposit Account. Each Borrower grants to Administrative Agent a security interest in the Borrowers’ Deposit Account and all funds hereafter deposited to such deposit account, and any proceeds thereof, as security for the Obligations. Such security interest shall be governed by the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of California, and Administrative Agent shall have available to it all of the rights and remedies available to a secured party thereunder. The Borrowers’ Deposit Account may be established and held in such name or names as Administrative Agent shall deem appropriate, including in the name of Administrative Agent. Each Borrower hereby constitutes and appoints Administrative Agent and any officer or agent of Administrative Agent its true and lawful attorneys-in-fact with full power of substitution to open the Borrowers’ Deposit Account and to do any and every act that such Borrower might do on its own behalf to fulfill the terms of this Section 4.6. To the extent permitted by Law, each Borrower hereby ratifies all that said attorneys shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. It is understood and agreed that this power of attorney, which shall be deemed to be a power coupled with an interest, cannot be revoked.
4.7Management. Each Borrower at all times shall provide for the competent and responsible management and operation of the Property of such Borrower. At all times, each Borrower shall cause the Property of such Borrower to be managed by an Approved Manager. All management contracts affecting any Property shall be terminable upon thirty (30) days’ written Notice without penalty or charge (except for unpaid accrued management fees). All management contracts must be approved in writing by Administrative Agent prior to the execution of the same (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld).

Borrower claims any such right of defense or setoff, such Borrower shall give a detailed written description of such claimed right.
4.10Taxes; Tax Receipts. Each Borrower shall timely file (taking into account any effective extensions for filing) all federal, state and local income tax returns and all other material tax returns, domestic and foreign, required to be filed by it and shall pay and discharge all Taxes prior to the date on which penalties are attached thereto unless and to the extent only that such Taxes are contested in accordance with the terms of the Security Instrument delivered by such Borrower. If a Borrower fails, following demand, to provide Administrative Agent the tax receipts required under the Security Instrument delivered by such Borrower, without limiting any other remedies available to Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent may, at Borrowers’ sole expense, obtain and enter into a tax services contract with respect to the applicable Property with a tax reporting agency satisfactory to Administrative Agent.
4.11Administrative Agent’s Rights to Pay and Perform. If, after written Notice, any Borrower fails to promptly pay or perform any of the Obligations within any applicable grace or cure periods, Administrative Agent, without further Notice to or demand upon any Borrower, and without waiving or releasing any Obligation or Default, may (but shall be under no obligation to) at any time thereafter make such payment or perform such act for the account and at the expense of such Borrower. Administrative Agent may enter upon any of the Properties for that purpose and take all action thereon as Administrative Agent considers necessary or appropriate.
4.12Reimbursement; Interest. If Administrative Agent shall incur any Expenses or pay any Claims after delivery of any Notice required by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by reason of the Loan or the rights and remedies provided under the Loan Documents (regardless of whether or not any of the Loan Documents expressly provide for an indemnification by any Borrower against such Claims), Administrative Agent’s payment of such Expenses and Claims shall constitute advances to Borrowers which shall be paid by Borrowers to Administrative Agent on demand, together with interest thereon from the date incurred until paid in full at the rate of interest then applicable to the Loan under the terms of this Agreement. Each advance shall be secured by the Security Instruments, the Pledge Agreements and the other Loan Documents as fully as if made to a Borrower, regardless of the disposition thereof by the party or parties to whom such advance is made.

in substantially the same form and detail as the annual operating budgets and capital expenditures budgets delivered to Administrative Agent prior to the Eighth Modification Date pursuant to Section 4.8 and, promptly after preparation thereof, any subsequent revisions thereto (such budgets for any given year, collectively, an “Annual Budget”).
4.15Fees and Expenses. Each Borrower shall pay all fees, charges, costs and expenses required to satisfy the conditions of the Loan Documents. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Borrower will pay, when due, and if paid by Administrative Agent will reimburse Administrative Agent on demand for, all reasonable and documented fees and expenses of any construction consultant (if any), the title insurer, environmental engineers, appraisers, surveyors and Administrative Agent’s counsel in connection with the closing, administration, modification or any “workout” of the Loan, or the enforcement of Administrative Agent’s or any Lender’s rights and remedies under any of the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary set forth herein or in any other Loan Document, except in any instance where, due to a legal conflict of interest, a single counsel cannot represent Administrative Agent and Lenders in connection with the enforcement of Administrative Agent’s or Lenders’ rights and remedies under any of the Loan Documents (in which event Lenders may employ, at Borrowers’ expense, a single separate counsel to represent the interests of Lenders in connection with the enforcement of Lenders’ rights and remedies under any of the Loan Documents), Borrowers shall not be required to pay or reimburse any Lender for the costs and expenses of any counsel to any Lender.
4.16Appraisals.

The cost of any such appraisal, including any costs for internal review thereof, obtained by Administrative Agent in connection with any extension of the maturity of the Loan, the release or reconveyance of any Property, or any other time a calculation of Loan-to-Value Ratio is required under this Agreement or the Loan Documents, and the cost of each such appraisal obtained by Administrative Agent following the occurrence of a Default, shall by borne by Borrowers and shall be paid by Borrowers on written demand by Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall provide a copy of such appraisal to each Lender promptly after receipt. In addition, provided (a) no Default or Potential Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) Borrowers have delivered to Administrative Agent Administrative Agent’s standard disclosure and indemnification agreements regarding appraisals, and (c) Borrowers have reimbursed Administrative Agent for the cost of such appraisal, including any costs for internal review thereof, at Borrowers’ request Administrative Agent shall, at the request of the Borrower, provide a copy to Borrowers of any Acceptable Appraisal that is being relied upon by Administrative Agent in order to evaluate compliance with the conditions to the extension of the Maturity Date in Section 1.6.3(c) or of the proposed release of a Property with the requirements of Section 9.31 hereof. Borrowers may obtain, at Borrowers’ sole cost and expense, new appraisals of all or any of the Properties, provided that in no event shall such appraisals constitute Acceptable Appraisals or otherwise be used for any purpose under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

(b)In the event Administrative Agent delivers any appraisals to Borrowers, Administrative Agent and Lenders do not (i) represent that the presumptions or opinions in any appraisal are relevant or accurate; (ii) represent that any appraisal has been or has not been approved by Administrative Agent or any Lender; or (iii) represent that Administrative Agent or any Lender endorses or does not endorse the opinions set forth in any appraisal. Each Borrower agrees that any transmittal by Administrative Agent of any appraisal of the Property to Borrowers is given without representation or warranty. Borrowers will hold any appraisal delivered by Administrative Agent to Borrowers in confidence and will not distribute it to any other person or entity, except Borrowers’ employees, agents, attorneys, consultants, or unless compelled by Law or judicial proceedings, without Administrative Agent’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be withheld, conditioned or delayed unreasonably). Each Borrower waives any and all present and future claims, actions, causes of action, defenses and/or counterclaims which it may now or hereafter assert against Administrative Agent and any Lender in connection with the content or accuracy of any such appraisal, Borrowers’ use of any such appraisal, and subsequent use of any such appraisal by any third party to whom any Borrower provides the appraisal.
(c)Borrowers and Administrative Agent shall cooperate in all reasonable respects at no cost or expense to Borrowers or Administrative Agent in connection with any Lender’s election to obtain its own separate appraisals of the Properties. Any such appraisals shall be obtained at the sole cost and expense of the applicable requesting Lender, and shall not be deemed to be “Acceptable Appraisals” or otherwise have any consequences under this Agreement. In connection with any such request, Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to grant any consent for an appraiser or appraisal firm that has prepared an Acceptable Appraisal or is in the process of preparing an appraisal that is intended, upon approval thereof by Administrative Agent, to be an Acceptable Appraisal to prepare the appraisal that such requesting Lender seeks to obtain.
4.17Leasing and Tenant Matters.
(a)Each Borrower shall comply with the terms and conditions of Exhibit “D” in connection with the leasing of space within the Improvements of such Borrower.
(b)In addition, each Borrower shall deposit with Administrative Agent on the date of Borrower’s receipt thereof any and all termination fees or other similar funds paid by a tenant in connection with such tenant’s election to exercise an early termination option contained in its respective Lease or otherwise (the “Termination Fee Deposit”). The Termination Fee Deposit shall be deposited into the Cash Sweep Collateral Account and thereafter be funds in the Cash Sweep Collateral Account and subject to all of the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with respect thereto, including but not limited to those set forth in Section 4.25.3 for a Cash Sweep Disbursement from the Cash Sweep Collateral Account.

As used herein, a “Qualifying Lease” means any Lease in effect as of the Eighth Modification Date (and identified on the rent roll most recently delivered to Administrative Agent prior to the Eighth Modification Date) or entered into in accordance with this Agreement and, in each case, with

Non-compliance with this clause (c) shall only constitute a default if such non-compliance continues for two successive and consecutive Test Dates as further set forth in Section 7.1(y).
4.18Preservation of Rights. Each Borrower shall obtain, preserve and maintain in good standing, as applicable, all rights, privileges and franchises necessary or desirable for the operation of the Property of such Borrower and the conduct of such Borrower’s business thereon or therefrom.

4.20Capital Improvements and Tenant Improvements.
(a)Compliance with Laws; Plans and Specifications; Correction of Construction Work. Borrowers shall use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that all of the Capital Improvements and Tenant Improvements, as applicable, are constructed in accordance with all applicable (whether present or future) Laws.

Prior to commencing any construction of any Capital Improvements or Tenant Improvements, as applicable, the applicable plans and specifications shall be approved by all applicable Governmental Authorities and any tenant whose approval is required. Promptly following any written demand by Administrative Agent, Borrowers shall correct or cause the correction of any work that fails to comply with the requirements of this Section and any material

departures or deviations from the applicable improvement plans and specifications not approved by Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent and its representatives shall have access to the Properties at all reasonable times and upon no less than twenty-four (24) hours prior notice, and shall have the right to enter the Properties and to conduct such inspections thereof at their sole cost and expense, and subject to the rights of tenants under their Leases, as they shall deem necessary or desirable for the protection of the interests of Administrative Agent and Lenders.
(b)Building Permits; Other Permits. All building, construction and other permits necessary or required in connection with the construction of any Tenant Improvements and Capital Improvements must be issued prior to the commencement of construction of any of the same. Borrowers shall pay, or cause to be paid, all required fees in connection with such permits.
4.21Intentionally Omitted.
4.22Debt Service Coverage Ratio. As of each Test Date, commencing on March 31, 2027, the Properties shall maintain an Ongoing Debt Service Coverage Ratio of not less than the Minimum Required Ongoing Debt Service Coverage Ratio, provided, however, that if the Properties fail to maintain an Ongoing Debt Service Coverage Ratio of not less than the Minimum Required Ongoing Debt Service Coverage Ratio for two successive and consecutive Test Dates occurring on or after March 31, 2027, Borrowers shall, within thirty (30) days following receipt of written demand from Administrative Agent, repay (without penalty or fee other than any Consequential Loss that may be payable in connection with such repayment) the Loan in an amount sufficient to cause the Ongoing Debt Service Coverage Ratio (calculated after giving effect to such repayment as if repaid on the applicable Test Date) to at least equal the Remargin Debt Service Coverage Ratio. For the avoidance of doubt, (x) until such repayment is received by Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, may in its discretion suspend all disbursements of Additional Loan Proceeds, Subaccount Disbursements and Cash Sweep Disbursements (such period of suspension, a “DSCR Trigger Period”) and (y) once such repayment is received by Administrative Agent, such DSCR Trigger Period shall end and the Borrowers shall be deemed to be compliant with this Section 4.22.
4.23Anti-Corruption Laws. Each Borrower, Guarantor and their respective subsidiaries shall each conduct its businesses in compliance with the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, the U.K. Bribery Act 2010, and other similar anti-corruption legislation in other jurisdictions, and KBS Capital Advisors LLC, the investment advisor to each Borrower, on behalf of each Borrower, maintains policies and procedures designed to promote and achieve compliance with such Laws.
4.24Controlled Substances. Without limiting the provisions of Section 10, Borrowers shall not, and shall not knowingly suffer or knowingly permit any tenant leasing space in the Improvements to violate any Laws affecting the Property, including the Controlled Substances Act, or which could otherwise result in the occurrence of a Default under Section 7.1(o), including the commencement of any proceedings under the Civil Asset Forfeiture Reform Act. Upon learning of any conduct contrary to this Section, Borrower shall immediately take all actions reasonably expected under the circumstances to terminate any such use of the applicable Property, including: (a) to give timely notice to any appropriate law enforcement agency of information that

led Borrowers to know such conduct had occurred, and (b) in a timely fashion to revoke or make a good faith attempt to revoke permission for those engaging in such conduct to use the applicable Property or to take reasonable actions in consultation with a law enforcement agency to discourage or prevent illegal use of the applicable Property.
4.25Cash Management.
4.25.1Property Accounts.
(a)Borrowers shall:
(i)cause all income from the ownership and operation of each Property from whatever source, including Rents, utility charges, escalations, service fees or charges, license fees, parking fees, other required pass-throughs to be deposited into one or more Controlled Accounts maintained with the Depository Bank in the name of the applicable Borrower or Borrowers (collectively, the “Property Accounts”);

Borrowers shall maintain, or shall cause to be maintained, the Property Accounts at all times. Until deposited into the applicable Property Account, any Rents and other revenues from any Property held by any Borrower shall be deemed to be collateral and shall be held in trust by it for the benefit, and as the property, of Administrative Agent pursuant to the Security Instruments and shall not be commingled with any other funds or property of Borrowers.

If the Draw Request that is funded on the Eighth Modification Date does not include amounts sufficient for the deposits that would be required under this Section 4.25.2(d), then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the amounts available to be disbursed from the Additional Availability pursuant to Section 1.3.3 shall be limited such that at all times, until the deposits that would be required under this Section 4.25.2(d) have been fully funded, whether from the proceeds of the Additional Availability or otherwise, (i) the Additional Availability (after giving effect to the holdback of sums for any Pending Disbursements) shall be not less than the amount of the deposits that would be required under this Section 4.25.2(d), and (ii) Borrowers’ rights to disbursements pursuant to Section 1.3.3 shall be restricted such that the minimum amount of such Additional Availability as described in clause (i) immediately above may not be disbursed for any purpose other than the funding of such deposits.

If at any time Administrative Agent reasonably determines that the Tax and Insurance Reserve Funds are not or will not be sufficient to pay such Real Property Taxes and Insurance Premiums by the dates set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) above, the Administrative Agent shall notify Borrowers of such determination in writing and Borrowers shall pay to Administrative Agent any amount reasonably necessary to make up the deficiency within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of written notice from the Administrative Agent to the Borrower requesting payment thereof.

In permitting any withdrawal or making any transfer from the Tax and Insurance Reserve Account, Administrative Agent may do so according to any bill, statement or estimate procured from the appropriate public office or tax lien service (with respect to Real Property 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. In the event any Borrower fails to pay or cause to be paid any Real Property Taxes or Insurance Premiums prior to delinquency, Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, pay such Real Property Taxes or Insurance Premiums (or, with respect to any blanket insurance policy, obtain replacement insurance policies for the applicable Property and pay the Insurance Premiums therefor) from the Tax and Insurance Reserve Funds.
(g)Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, transfer sums on deposit in the Cash Sweep Collateral Account to and between any number of subaccounts that are established for the special uses contemplated in this Agreement (collectively, the “Subaccounts”) which subaccounts shall be maintained on a ledger-entry basis and which Subaccounts may include, without limitation, the Tax and Insurance Reserve Account and Subaccounts for costs of Tenant Improvements, Leasing Commissions, Capital Improvements or costs for the restoration or repair of any Property following any Casualty or Condemnation.

In all cases, Excess Cash Flow shall be calculated on a basis that assumes that the balance in the Portfolio Account as of the end of each month for which Excess Cash Flow is being calculated would be zeroed out after giving effect to all contemplated cash activity. Without limitation of the provisions of Article 8, Administrative Agent may rely conclusively on Borrowers’ calculation of Excess Cash Flow, without further inquiry, and shall be fully protected, and shall be indemnified by Lenders pursuant to Section 8.7, in relying thereon.
4.25.3Disbursements from Subaccounts and Cash Sweep Collateral Account. Subject to satisfaction of the following requirements, Borrowers will be permitted to withdraw funds from (A) a Subaccount, to pay for the expenses for which such funds were reserved (each, a “Subaccount Disbursement”) or (B) the Cash Sweep Collateral Account (each a “Cash Sweep Disbursement”) to pay or, provided such costs were not paid out of actual gross revenues of Borrowers attributable to the Properties, reimburse the applicable payor for (i) Approved TILC Costs, (ii) Approved Capex Costs, (iii) any Monthly Shortfall Amount, (iv) the costs for restoration or repair of any Property that has experienced a Condemnation or Casualty, using amounts of any Condemnation Awards or Insurance Proceeds which the applicable Borrower shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent, to the extent the applicable Borrower is proceeding with the restoration or repair of the applicable Property in accordance with the terms of the applicable Security Instrument, (v) loan fees, legal fees and financial advisor fees incurred by Administrative Agent in connection with this Agreement, the Loan Documents or the Loans, and (vi) without limiting the foregoing clause (iii), to the extent that the sums deposited in the Tax and Insurance Reserve Account are insufficient for the payment thereof, taxes and insurance attributable to the Properties, and in each case Administrative Agent shall release such funds within five (5) Business Days of Borrowers’ request thereof):

(h)each draw request for Approved TILC Costs that are Leasing Commissions shall be accompanied by evidence reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent that such Leasing Commissions are then due and payable or have been properly paid, including, if required by Administrative Agent, receipts, lien waivers and/or releases from the party or parties entitled to all or any portion of such Leasing Commissions;

(i)Administrative Agent shall have received such evidence as Administrative Agent may reasonably require that construction has been completed in a good and workmanlike manner, in accordance with applicable requirements of all Governmental Authorities and substantially in accordance with plans and specifications reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent;

Borrower. Neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any liability to any Borrower for the sufficiency or adequacy of any such actions taken by Administrative Agent.
ARTICLE 8 – ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT
8.1Appointment and Authorization of Administrative Agent.
(a)Each Lender hereby irrevocably (subject to Section 8.9) appoints, designates and authorizes Administrative Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other Loan Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to it by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Borrowers, without further inquiry or investigation, shall, and are hereby authorized by Lenders to, assume that all actions taken by Administrative Agent hereunder and in connection with or under the Loan Documents are duly authorized by Lenders and Borrowers shall be entitled to rely on Administrative Agent’s acknowledgment of consent and approvals when required under the Loan Documents. The term “agent” herein and in the other Loan Documents with reference to Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.
(b)Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere herein or in any other Loan Document, Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth herein, and its duties and responsibilities shall be administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent and its Related Parties:
(i)shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against Administrative Agent or its Related Parties;
(ii)shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents), provided that Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable Law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may affect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law; and

(Conformed through Eighth Modification)

61



(iii)shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty or responsibility to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to any Borrower, Guarantor or any of their Related Parties that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties in any capacity.
(c)No individual Lender or group of Lenders shall have any right to amend or waive, or consent to the departure of any party from any provision of any Loan Document, or secure or enforce the obligations of any Borrower or any other party pursuant to the Loan Documents, or otherwise. All such rights, on behalf of Administrative Agent or any Lender or Lenders, shall be held and exercised solely by and at the option of Administrative Agent for the pro rata benefit of the Lenders. Such rights, however, are subject to the rights of a Lender or Lenders, as expressly set forth in this Agreement, to approve matters or direct Administrative Agent to take or refrain from taking action as set forth in this Agreement. Except as expressly otherwise provided in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, Administrative Agent shall have and may use its sole discretion with respect to exercising or refraining from exercising any discretionary rights, or taking or refraining from taking any actions which Administrative Agent is expressly entitled to exercise or take under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including (i) the determination if and to what extent matters or items subject to Administrative Agent’s satisfaction are acceptable or otherwise within its discretion, (ii) the making of Administrative Agent Advances, and (iii) the exercise of remedies pursuant to, but subject to, Article 7 or pursuant to any other Loan Document and any action so taken or not taken shall be deemed consented to by Lenders.
(d)In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to any Borrower, Guarantor or any other Person liable for any part of the Indebtedness, no individual Lender or group of Lenders shall have the right, and Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of the Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on any Borrower or any other Person) shall be exclusively entitled and empowered on behalf of itself and the Lenders, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:
(i)to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loan and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of Lenders and Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of Lenders and Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due Lenders and Administrative Agent under Section 4.15 allowed in such judicial proceeding; and
(ii)to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;
and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar

(Conformed through Eighth Modification)

official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to Administrative Agent and, in the event that Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to Lenders, to pay to Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due Administrative Agent under Section 4.15.
Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of Lenders except as approved by the Required Lenders or to authorize Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claims of Lenders except as approved by the Required Lenders in any such proceeding.
8.2Delegation of Duties; Advice.
(a)Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by or through one or more sub-agents appointed by Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article 8 shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the Loan as well as activities as Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and non appealable judgment that Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents.
(b)Administrative Agent shall be entitled to advice of counsel and other consultant experts concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel or other consultant experts.
8.3Liability of Administrative Agent. Neither Administrative Agent nor any Related Party of Administrative Agent shall (a) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary), or as Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment, or (b) be responsible in any manner to any Lender for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by any Borrower, Guarantor, any subsidiary or Affiliate of any Borrower or Guarantor, or any other Person, or any officer thereof, contained herein or in any other Loan Document, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for any failure of any Borrower or any other party to any Loan Document to perform its obligations hereunder or
Amended and Restated Loan Agreement
(Conformed through Eighth Modification)

63



thereunder. Neither Administrative Agent nor any Related Party of Administrative Agent shall be under any obligation to any Lender or participant or any other Person to inspect the properties, books or records of any Borrower, Guarantor, any of their Related Parties or any other Person, or to ascertain or inquire into (u) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (v) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (w) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (x) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or the creation, perfection or priority of any Lien purported to be created by the Loan Documents, (y) the value or the sufficiency of any Collateral, or (z) the satisfaction of any condition set forth herein or therein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.
8.4Reliance by Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent is authorized to rely upon the continuing authority of the Authorized Persons, Authorized Signers, and designated Authorized Portal Users to bind any Borrower with respect to all matters pertaining to the Loan and the Loan Documents, including the submission of Draw Requests and the selection of interest rates. Such authorization may be changed only upon written notice addressed to Administrative Agent accompanied by evidence, reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent, of the authority of the Person giving such notice. Such notice shall be effective not sooner than five (5) Business Days following receipt thereof by Administrative Agent. Without limitation of the foregoing, Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected, and shall be indemnified by Lenders pursuant to Section 8.7, in relying, upon any writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex, telephone message, email or other electronic (including any Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) communication, statement or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to any party to the Loan Documents), independent accountants and other experts selected by Administrative Agent. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of the Loan that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of the Loan. For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in Exhibit “C”, each Lender that has signed this Agreement shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with, each document or other matter required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to a Lender unless Administrative Agent shall have received notice from such Lender prior to the proposed Closing Date specifying its objections. Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders or all Lenders if required hereunder as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected, and shall be indemnified by Lenders pursuant to Section 8.7, in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance with a request or consent of the Required Lenders or such
Amended and Restated Loan Agreement
(Conformed through Eighth Modification)

64



greater number of Lenders as may be expressly required hereby in any instance, and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all Lenders. In the absence of written instructions from the Required Lenders or such greater number of Lenders, as expressly required hereunder, Administrative Agent may take or not take any action, at its discretion, unless this Agreement specifically requires the consent of the Required Lenders or such greater number of Lenders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in no event shall Administrative Agent be required to take any action that it determines may expose Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable Law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may affect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law, and Administrative Agent shall be indemnified by Lenders pursuant to Section 8.7 with respect to such determination.
8.5Notice of Default. Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Potential Default unless Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or any Borrower referring to this Agreement and describing such Default or Potential Default, and Administrative Agent determines that such Default or such Potential Default (if it were to become a Default) will have a Material Adverse Effect. Administrative Agent will notify Lenders of its receipt of any such notice. Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to any such Default as may be requested by the Required Lenders in accordance with Article 7; provided, however, that unless and until Administrative Agent has received any such request, Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default as it shall deem advisable or in the best interest of Lenders.
8.6Credit Decision; Disclosure of Information by Administrative Agent.
(a)Each Lender acknowledges that neither Administrative Agent nor any Related Party of Administrative Agent has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by Administrative Agent hereafter taken, including any consent to and acceptance of any assignment or review of the affairs of any Borrower and Guarantor, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by Administrative Agent or any Related Party of Administrative Agent to any Lenders as to any matter, including whether Administrative Agent or any Related Party of Administrative Agent have disclosed material information in their possession. Each Lender represents to Administrative Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon Administrative Agent or any Related Party of Administrative Agent and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of each Borrower and Guarantor, and all applicable bank or other regulatory Laws relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to Borrowers and Guarantor hereunder. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon Administrative Agent or any Related Party of Administrative Agent and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such

investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of any Borrower and Guarantor.
(b)Administrative Agent promptly after its receipt shall provide each Lender such notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to Lenders by Administrative Agent herein. To the extent not already available to a Lender, Administrative Agent shall also provide each Lender and/or make available for such Lender’s inspection during reasonable business hours and at such Lender’s expense, promptly after such Lender’s written request therefor: (i) copies of the Loan Documents; (ii) such information as is then in Administrative Agent’s possession in respect of the current status of principal and interest payments and accruals in respect of the Loan; (iii) copies of all current financial statements in respect of any Borrower, Guarantor or other Person liable for payment or performance by Borrowers of any obligations under the Loan Documents, then in Administrative Agent’s possession with respect to the Loan; and (iv) other current factual information then in Administrative Agent’s possession with respect to the Loan and bearing on the continuing creditworthiness of Borrowers or Guarantor, or any of their respective Affiliates; provided that nothing contained in this Section shall impose any liability upon Administrative Agent for its failure to provide a Lender any of such Loan Documents, information, or financial statements, unless such failure constitutes willful misconduct or gross negligence on Administrative Agent’s part; and provided, further, that Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to provide any Lender with any information in violation of Law or any contractual restrictions on the disclosure thereof (provided such contractual restrictions shall not apply to distributing to a Lender factual and financial information expressly required to be provided herein). Except as set forth above, Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lenders with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of Borrowers or Guarantor or any of their respective Affiliates which may come into the possession of Administrative Agent or any Related Party of Administrative Agent.
8.7Indemnification of Administrative Agent. WHETHER OR NOT THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY ARE CONSUMMATED, LENDERS HEREBY INDEMNIFY ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH RELATED PARTY OF ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT (TO THE EXTENT NOT REIMBURSED BY OR ON BEHALF OF ANY BORROWER AND WITHOUT LIMITING THE OBLIGATION OF ANY BORROWER TO DO SO), PRO RATA, AND HOLD HARMLESS ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH RELATED PARTY OF ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT FROM AND AGAINST ANY AND ALL INDEMNIFIED LIABILITIES INCURRED BY IT, INCLUDING BEFORE, DURING AND AFTER ANY FORECLOSURE OF ANY SECURITY INSTRUMENT OR PLEDGE AGREEMENT, OTHER EXERCISE OF RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OR SALE OF ANY PROPERTY, INCLUDING THOSE IN WHOLE OR PART ARISING FROM ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT’S STRICT LIABILITY, OR COMPARATIVE, CONTRIBUTORY OR SOLE NEGLIGENCE; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for the payment to Administrative Agent or any Related Party of Administrative Agent of any portion of such Indemnified Liabilities to the extent determined in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Person’s own gross negligence or willful

misconduct; provided, further, that no action taken in accordance with the directions of the Required Lenders shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section 8.7. All payments on account of the foregoing shall be due and payable ten (10) days after demand by Administrative Agent therefor. Without limitation of the foregoing, to the extent that Administrative Agent is not reimbursed by or on behalf of any Borrower, each Lender shall reimburse Administrative Agent within ten (10) days after demand for its ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by Administrative Agent as described in Section 4.15. The undertaking in this Section 8.7 shall survive the resignation or replacement of Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments, the termination of this Agreement and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations.
8.8Administrative Agent in Individual Capacity. Administrative Agent, in its individual capacity, and its Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire equity interests in and securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial, advisory, underwriting or other business with any party to the Loan Documents and their respective subsidiaries and other Affiliates as though Administrative Agent was not Administrative Agent hereunder, without notice to or consent of Lenders and without any duty to account therefor to Lenders. Lenders acknowledge that one or more Borrowers and Bank of America or its Affiliate have entered or may enter into Swap Transactions. Lenders shall have no right to share in any portion of any payments made by any Borrower under the terms of such Swap Transactions (except and to the extent Lenders shall have participated with Bank of America or such Affiliate in such Swap Transactions). Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, Bank of America or its Affiliates may receive information regarding any party to the Loan Documents, or their respective Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such parties or such parties’ Affiliates) and acknowledge that Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them. With respect to its Pro Rata Share of the Loan, Bank of America shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lenders and may exercise such rights and powers as though it were not Administrative Agent or party to Swap Transactions, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” include Bank of America in its individual capacity.
8.9Successor Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative Agent upon thirty (30) days’ notice to Lenders and Borrowers. Additionally, if the Person serving as Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender, commits gross negligence or willful misconduct in exercising its rights and obligations hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, or is no longer an Arranger hereunder, the Required Lenders may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, by notice in writing to Borrowers and such Person, remove such Person as Administrative Agent. If Administrative Agent resigns or is so removed by the Required Lenders under this Agreement, the Required Lenders shall, (i) within thirty (30) days after receipt of Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation or (ii) within five Business Days of the removal of Administrative Agent, as applicable, appoint from among Lenders a successor administrative agent for Lenders, which successor administrative agent shall be consented to by Borrowers at all times other than during the existence of a Default (which consent of Borrowers shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Upon the acceptance by the successor administrative agent of

its appointment as successor administrative agent hereunder, the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal, as applicable, shall be effective, such successor administrative agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent and the term “Administrative Agent” shall mean such successor administrative agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent’s appointment, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated. If no successor administrative agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent by the date which is thirty (30) days following a retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation, or on or before the removal day specified by Required Lenders in their removal notice to Administrative Agent and Borrowers, whichever applies, then the Lender other than the retiring Administrative Agent holding the largest Commitment shall automatically become the successor administrative agent; it being understood and agreed that the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal, as applicable, shall in all instances become effective upon such thirtieth (30th) day, or upon the removal day set forth in Required Lenders’ removal notice, whichever applies. After the effective date any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article VIII and other applicable Sections of this Agreement shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement.
8.10Releases; Acquisition and Transfers of Collateral.
(a)Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize Administrative Agent to transfer or release any lien on, or after foreclosure or other acquisition of title by Administrative Agent on behalf of Lenders to transfer or sell, any Collateral (i) upon the termination of the Commitments, the termination of all obligations of each Swap Counterparty to advance any funds under any Swap Contract, and payment and satisfaction in full of all Indebtedness; (ii) constituting a release, transfer or sale of a lien or Collateral if Borrowers will certify to Administrative Agent that the release, transfer or sale is permitted under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (and Administrative Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate, without further inquiry); or (iii) after foreclosure or other acquisition of title (1) in the discretion of Administrative Agent if a purchase price of at least ninety percent (90%)) of the value indicated in the most recent Acceptable Appraisal of the collateral obtained by Administrative Agent and made in accordance with regulations governing Administrative Agent, less any reduction indicated in the appraised value estimated by any experts in the applicable areas engaged by Administrative Agent; or (2) if approved by the Required Lenders.
(b)If all or any portion of the Collateral is acquired by foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure, Administrative Agent shall take title to the Collateral in its name or by an Affiliate of Administrative Agent, but for the benefit of all Lenders in their Pro Rata Shares on the date of the foreclosure sale or recordation of the deed in lieu of foreclosure (the “Acquisition Date”). Administrative Agent and all Lenders hereby expressly waive and relinquish any right of partition with respect to any collateral so acquired. After any Collateral is acquired, Administrative Agent shall appoint and retain one or more Persons (individually and collectively, the “OREO Property Manager”) experienced in the management, leasing, sale and/or disposition of similar properties.
(c)After consulting with the OREO Property Manager, Administrative Agent shall prepare a written plan for operation, management, improvement, maintenance, repair, sale and

(Conformed through Eighth Modification)

disposition of the Collateral and a budget for the aforesaid, which may include a reasonable management fee payable to Administrative Agent (the “Business Plan”). Administrative Agent will deliver the Business Plan not later than the sixtieth (60th) day after the Acquisition Date to each Lender with a written request for approval of the Business Plan. If the Business Plan is approved by the Required Lenders, Administrative Agent and the OREO Property Manager shall adhere to the Business Plan until a different Business Plan is approved by the Required Lenders. Administrative Agent may propose an amendment to the Business Plan as it deems appropriate, which shall also be subject to Required Lender approval. If the Business Plan (as may be amended) proposed by Administrative Agent is not approved by the Required Lenders, or if sixty (60) days have elapsed following the Acquisition Date without a Business Plan being proposed by Administrative Agent, any Lender may propose an alternative Business Plan, which Administrative Agent shall submit to all Lenders for their approval. If an alternative Business Plan is approved by the Required Lenders, Administrative Agent may appoint one of the approving Lenders to implement the alternative Business Plan. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, unless in violation of an approved Business Plan or otherwise in an emergency situation, Administrative Agent shall, subject to Section 8.10(a), have the right but not the obligation to take any action in connection with the Collateral (including those with respect to all Real Property Taxes, Insurance Premiums, operation, management, improvement, maintenance, repair, sale and disposition), or any portion thereof.
(d)Upon written request by Administrative Agent or any Borrower at any time, Lenders will confirm in writing Administrative Agent’s authority to sell, transfer or release any such liens of particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 8.10; provided, however, that (i) Administrative Agent shall not be required to execute any document necessary to evidence such release, transfer or sale on terms that, in Administrative Agent’s opinion, would expose Administrative Agent to liability or create any obligation or entail any consequence other than the transfer, release or sale without recourse, representation or warranty, and (ii) such transfer, release or sale shall not in any manner discharge, affect or impair the obligations of any Borrower other than those expressly being released.
(e)If only two (2) Lenders exist at the time Administrative Agent receives a purchase offer for Collateral, the consent of the Required Lenders is required pursuant to Section 8.10(a), and one of the Lenders does not consent within ten (10) Business Days after notification from Administrative Agent, the consenting Lender may, in writing to the other Lender, offer (“Purchase Offer”) to purchase all of the non-consenting Lender’s right, title and interest in such Collateral for a purchase price equal to the non-consenting Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the net proceeds anticipated from such sale of such Collateral (as reasonably determined by Administrative Agent, including the undiscounted face principal amount of any purchase money obligation not payable at closing) (“Lender Net Sale Proceeds”). Within ten (10) Business Days thereafter the non-consenting Lender shall be deemed to have accepted such Purchase Offer unless the non-consenting Lender notifies Administrative Agent that it elects to purchase all of the consenting Lender’s right, title and interest in such Collateral for a purchase price payable by the non-consenting Lender in an amount equal to the consenting Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Lender Net Sale Proceeds. Any amount payable hereunder by a Lender shall be due on the earlier to occur of the closing of the sale of such Collateral or ninety (90) days after receipt by the non-consenting Lender of the Purchase Offer, regardless of whether such Collateral is sold.

8.11Application of Payments. Except as otherwise provided below with respect to Defaulting Lenders, aggregate principal and interest payments, payments for Indemnified Liabilities and/or foreclosure or sale of the collateral, and net operating income from the collateral during any period it is owned by Administrative Agent on behalf of Lenders (“Payments”) shall be apportioned pro rata among Lenders and payments of any fees (other than fees designated for Administrative Agent’s separate account) shall, as applicable, be apportioned pro rata among Lenders. All pro rata Payments shall be remitted to Administrative Agent and all such payments not constituting payment of specific fees, and all proceeds of the Collateral received by Administrative Agent, shall be applied first, to pay any fees, indemnities, costs, expenses (including those in Section 8.7) and reimbursements then due to Administrative Agent from Borrowers (including any of the foregoing constituting Administrative Agent Advances, together with interest thereon); second, to pay any fees, costs, expenses and reimbursements then due to Lenders from Borrowers (including any of the foregoing constituting Administrative Agent Advances, together with interest thereon, reimbursed by Lenders); third, to pay (on a pari passu basis) pro rata interest and late charges due in respect of the Indebtedness and regularly occurring payments under any Swap Contract; fourth, to pay (on a pari passu basis) or prepay pro rata principal of the Indebtedness and “Settlement Amounts” or “Close-Out Amounts”, and similar payments, as applicable, payable by any Borrower under Swap Transactions; and last, to Borrowers, if required by Law, or Lenders in Pro Rata Share percentages equal to their percentages at the termination of the Aggregate Commitments.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, obligations arising under Swap Contracts shall be excluded from the application described above in this Section 8.11 if Administrative Agent has not received a Secured Party Designation Notice, together with such supporting documentation as Administrative Agent may request, from the applicable Hedge Bank. Each Hedge Bank not a party to this Agreement that has given the notice contemplated by the preceding sentence shall, by such notice, be deemed to have acknowledged and accepted the appointment of Administrative Agent pursuant to the terms of this Article VIII for itself and its Affiliates as if a “Lender” party hereto.
8.12Administrative Agent Advances.
(a)Administrative Agent is authorized, from time to time, in Administrative Agent’s sole discretion to make, authorize or determine other advances, or otherwise expend funds, on behalf of Lenders (“Administrative Agent Advances”), (i) to pay any costs, fees and expenses as described in Section 4.15, (ii) when the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Exhibit “C” have been satisfied to the extent required by Administrative Agent, and (iii) when Administrative Agent deems necessary or desirable to preserve or protect the Collateral or any portion thereof (including those with respect to Real Property Taxes, Insurance Premiums, operation, management, improvements, maintenance, repair, sale and disposition) (A) subject to Section 8.5, after the occurrence of a Default, and (B) subject to Section 8.10, after acquisition of all or a portion of the Collateral by foreclosure or otherwise; provided, however, that any Administrative Agent Advance under this clause (iii) in excess of Two Million and No/100 Dollars ($2,000,000.00), other than an Administrative Agent Advance to pay Real Property Taxes or Insurance Premiums, shall require the consent of the Required Lenders.

(b)Administrative Agent Advances shall constitute obligatory advances of Lenders under this Agreement, shall be repayable on demand and secured by the Collateral, and if unpaid by Lenders as set forth below shall bear interest at the rate applicable to such amount under the Loan or if no longer applicable, at the Base Rate. Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender in writing of each Administrative Agent Advance. Upon receipt of notice from Administrative Agent of its making of an Administrative Agent Advance, each Lender shall make the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the outstanding principal amount of the Administrative Agent Advance available to Administrative Agent, in same day funds, to such account of Administrative Agent as Administrative Agent may designate, (i) on or before 3:00 p.m. (Administrative Agent’s Time) on the day Administrative Agent provides Lenders with notice of the making of such Administrative Agent Advance if Administrative Agent provides such notice on or before 12:00 p.m. (Administrative Agent’s Time), or (ii) on or before 12:00 p.m. (Administrative Agent’s Time) on the Business Day immediately following the day Administrative Agent provides Lenders with notice of the making of such Administrative Agent Advance if Administrative Agent provides notice after 12:00 p.m. (Administrative Agent’s Time).
8.13Defaulting Lender.
8.13.1Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as that Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable Law:
(a)Waivers and Amendments. Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of “Required Lenders” and Section 9.9.
(b)Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article 7 or otherwise) or received by Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 9.7 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to Administrative Agent hereunder; second, as Borrowers may request (so long as no Default or Potential Default exists), to the funding of any advance in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by Administrative Agent; third, if so determined by Administrative Agent and Borrowers, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to advances under this Agreement; fourth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; fifth, so long as no Default or Potential Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to Borrowers as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender's breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and sixth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any advances in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share,

(Conformed through Eighth Modification)

71



and (y) such advances were made at a time when the conditions for same, if any, were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the advances of all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any advances of such Defaulting Lender until such time as all advances are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Commitments hereunder. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.
8.13.2Defaulting Lender Cure. If Borrowers and Administrative Agent agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein, that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding advances of the other Lenders or take such other actions as Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Commitments (and outstanding principal balance of all advances) to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares, whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of Borrowers while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.
8.14Lender ERISA Representation and Warranty. Each Lender represents and warrants as of the Closing Date to Administrative Agent and Arranger and their respective Affiliates, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, for the benefit of Borrower or any Guarantor, that (a) such Lender is not and will not be (i) an “employee benefit plan,” as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA or (ii) a “plan” within the meaning of Section 4975(e) of the Code; (b) the assets of such Lender do not and will not constitute “plan assets” within the meaning of the United States Department of Labor Regulations set forth in 29 C.F.R. §2510.3-101, as modified by Section 3(42) of ERISA; (c) such Lender is not and will not be a “governmental plan” within the meaning of Section 3(32) of ERISA; and (d) transactions by or with such Lender are not and will not be subject to federal, state or local statutes applicable to such Lender regulating investments of fiduciaries with respect to governmental plans.
8.15Benefit. The terms and conditions of this Article VIII are inserted for the sole benefit of Administrative Agent and Lenders; the same may be waived in whole or in part, with or without terms or conditions, without prejudicing Administrative Agent’s or Lenders’ rights to later assert them in whole or in part. The provisions of this Article VIII are solely among and for the benefit of Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and in no event shall any of the Borrowers be considered a party thereto or a beneficiary thereof (unless specifically provided otherwise herein) or have any additional obligations arising solely out of the provisions contained in this Article VIII.
8.16Co-Agents; Lead Managers. None of the Lenders or other Persons identified on the facing page or signature pages of this Agreement as a “syndication agent,” “documentation agent,” “co-agent,” “book manager,” “joint book runner”, “lead manager,” “arranger,” “joint lead

arranger” or “co-arranger” shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement other than, in the case of such lenders, those applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, none of the Lenders or other Persons so identified as a “syndication agent,” “documentation agent,” “co-agent” or “lead manager” shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lenders. Each Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on any of Lenders or other Persons so identified in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder.
8.17Lender Participation in Swap Transactions. If any Borrower enters into any Swap Transaction and Swap Contract with one or more Lenders, such Lender(s) shall notify each other then-existing Lender of the terms of each such Swap Transaction and each then-existing Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender) shall have the right in its sole discretion to participate in each such Swap Transaction pro rata according to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the amount of the applicable Swap Transaction. All such participation interests shall be governed pursuant to separate documentation.
8.18Swap Contracts. Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, no Hedge Bank that obtains the benefit of the provisions of Section 8.11 or any Collateral by virtue of the provisions hereof or any Loan Document shall have any right to notice of any action or to consent to, direct or object to any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document or otherwise in respect of the Collateral (including the release or impairment of any Collateral) (or to notice of or to consent to any amendment, waiver or modification of the provisions hereof or any Loan Document) other than in its capacity as a Lender and, in such case, only to the extent expressly provided in the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article VIII to the contrary, Administrative Agent shall not be required to verify the payment of, or that other satisfactory arrangements have been made with respect to, Obligations arising under Swap Contracts except to the extent expressly provided herein and unless Administrative Agent has received a Secured Party Designation Notice with respect to the related Swap Obligations, together with such supporting documentation as Administrative Agent may request, from the applicable Hedge Bank. Administrative Agent shall not be required to verify the payment of, or that other satisfactory arrangements have been made with respect to, Obligations arising under Swap Contracts.
8.19Recovery of Erroneous Payments. Without limitation of any other provision in this Agreement, if at any time Administrative Agent makes a payment hereunder in error to any Lender (the “Credit Party”), whether or not in respect of an Obligation due and owing by Borrower at such time, where such payment is a Rescindable Amount, then in any such event, each Credit Party receiving a Rescindable Amount severally agrees to repay to Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the Rescindable Amount received by such Credit Party in immediately available funds in the currency so received, with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such Rescindable Amount is received by it to but excluding the date of payment to Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. Each Credit Party irrevocably waives any and all defenses, including any “discharge for value” (under which a creditor might otherwise claim a right to retain funds mistakenly paid by a third party in respect of a debt owed by another) or similar defense to its obligation to return any Rescindable Amount. Administrative

Agent shall inform each Credit Party promptly upon determining that any payment made to such Credit Party comprised, in whole or in part, a Rescindable Amount.
8.20Borrowers Not a Party. Except as expressly otherwise provided herein, the provisions of this Article 8 are solely among and for the benefit of Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and except as expressly otherwise provided herein, in no event shall Borrower be considered a party thereto or a beneficiary thereof or have any additional obligations arising solely out of the provisions contained in this Article 8.
ARTICLE 9 – GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
9.1Consents; Borrowers’ Indemnity. Except where otherwise expressly provided in the Loan Documents, in any instance where the approval, consent or the exercise of Administrative Agent’s or Lenders’ judgment is required under any Loan Document, the granting or denial of such approval or consent and the exercise of such judgment shall be (a) within the sole discretion of Administrative Agent or Lenders; (b) deemed to have been given only by a specific writing intended for the purpose given and executed by Administrative Agent or, to the extent applicable, Lenders; and (c) free from any limitation or requirement of reasonableness. Notwithstanding any approvals or consents by Administrative Agent or Lenders, neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender has any obligation or responsibility whatsoever for the adequacy, form or content of any appraisal, environmental, engineering, property condition or other inspection, audit, report or assessment, any contract, any change order, any lease, or any other matter incident to any Property. Any appraisal, inspection, audit, report or assessment of any Property or the books and records of any Borrower or Guarantor, or the procuring of documents and financial and other information, by or on behalf of Administrative Agent shall be for Administrative Agent’s and Lenders’ protection only, and shall not constitute an assumption of responsibility to any Borrower or anyone else with regard to the condition, value, construction, maintenance or operation of any Property, or relieve any Borrower or Guarantor of any of its obligations. NEITHER ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT NOR ANY LENDER SHALL BE LIABLE OR RESPONSIBLE FOR, AND BORROWERS SHALL INDEMNIFY ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, EACH LENDER, AND EACH RELATED PARTY OF ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH LENDER (COLLECTIVELY, THE “INDEMNITEES”) FROM AND AGAINST: (A) ANY CLAIM, ACTION, LOSS OR COST (INCLUDING ATTORNEYS’ FEES AND COSTS OF ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND, TO THE EXTENT PROVIDED UNDER SECTION 4.15, LENDERS) ARISING FROM, RELATING TO OR OTHERWISE IN CONNECTION WITH (I) THE LEASES, THE PROPERTIES, THE IMPROVEMENTS AND THE OTHER COLLATERAL, INCLUDING ANY DEFECT THEREIN, (II) THE PROTECTION, PRESERVATION, OPERATION, MANAGEMENT, IMPROVEMENT, MAINTENANCE, REPAIR, SALE AND DISPOSITION OF ANY PROPERTY AND OTHER COLLATERAL (INCLUDING THOSE WITH RESPECT TO REAL PROPERTY TAXES, INSURANCE PREMIUMS, AND LEASING COSTS AND BROKER FEES) OR (III) THE PERFORMANCE OF ANY OBLIGATION OF ANY BORROWER WHATSOEVER; (B) ANY AND ALL LIABILITIES, OBLIGATIONS, LOSSES, DAMAGES, PENALTIES, CLAIMS, DEMANDS, ACTIONS, JUDGMENTS, SUITS, COSTS, EXPENSES AND DISBURSEMENTS (INCLUDING REASONABLE ATTORNEYS’ FEES AND COSTS OF ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND, TO THE

Nothing, including any advance or acceptance of any document or instrument, shall be construed as a representation or warranty, express or implied, to any party by Administrative Agent or Lenders. All payments on account of the Indemnified Liabilities shall be due and payable ten (10) Business Days after demand by Administrative Agent therefor. Subject to the provisions of

(Conformed through Eighth Modification)

75



Section 9.29, the indemnities in this Section 9.1 shall not terminate upon the release, foreclosure or other termination of the Security Instruments or Pledge Agreements but will survive the release, foreclosure of the Security Instruments and Pledge Agreements, or conveyance in lieu of foreclosure, the repayment of the Indebtedness, the discharge and release of the Security Instruments and the other Loan Documents, any bankruptcy or other debtor relief proceeding, and any other event whatsoever.
9.2Miscellaneous.
9.2.1Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), all of which are identical, and all of which counterparts together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
9.2.2Effectiveness; Signature Copies. This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by Administrative Agent and when Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.
9.2.3Electronic Signatures. This Agreement and any document, amendment, approval, consent, information, notice, certificate, request, statement, disclosure or authorization related to this Agreement (each a “Communication”), including Communications required to be in writing, may, if agreed to by Administrative Agent, be in the form of an Electronic Record and may be executed using Electronic Signatures, including, without limitation, facsimile and/or .pdf. Borrower agrees that any Electronic Signature (including, without limitation, facsimile or .pdf) on or associated with any Communication shall be valid and binding on Borrower to the same extent as a manual, original signature, and that any Communication entered into by Electronic Signature, will constitute the legal, valid and binding obligation of Borrower enforceable against Borrower in accordance with the terms thereof to the same extent as if a manually executed original signature was delivered. Any Communication may be executed in as many counterparts as necessary or convenient, including both paper and electronic counterparts, but all such counterparts are one and the same Communication. For the avoidance of doubt, the authorization under this Section may include use or acceptance by Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders of a manually signed paper Communication which has been converted into electronic form (such as scanned into PDF format), or an electronically signed Communication converted into another format, for transmission, delivery and/or retention. Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders may, at its option, create one or more copies of any Communication in the form of an imaged Electronic Record (“Electronic Copy”), which shall be deemed created in the ordinary course of such Person’s business, and destroy the original paper document. All Communications in the form of an Electronic Record, including an Electronic Copy, shall be considered an original for all purposes, and shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a paper record. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Administrative Agent is under no obligation to accept an Electronic Signature in any form or in any format unless expressly agreed to by Administrative Agent pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided, further, without limiting the foregoing, (a) to the extent Administrative Agent has agreed to accept such Electronic Signature, Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders shall be entitled to rely on any such Electronic Signature

(Conformed through Eighth Modification)

purportedly given by or on behalf of Borrower or any Guarantor without further verification and regardless of the appearance or form of such Electronic Signature and (b) upon the request of Administrative Agent or any Lender, any Communication executed using an Electronic Signature shall be promptly followed by a manually executed, original counterpart. For purposes hereof, “Electronic Record” and “Electronic Signature” shall have the meanings assigned to them, respectively, by 15 USC §7006, as it may be amended from time to time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower, Administrative Agent and each Lender agree that all Loan Documents shall be manually executed subject to conversion into an electronic form pursuant to the provisions set forth in this Section 9.2.3.
9.2.4Severability. A determination that any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document is unenforceable or invalid shall not affect the enforceability or validity of any other provision and the determination that the application of any provision of this Agreement to any Person or circumstance is illegal or unenforceable shall not affect the enforceability or validity of such provision as it may apply to other Persons or circumstances. The parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the unenforceable or invalid provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the unenforceable or invalid provisions. The unenforceability or invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 9.2.4, if and to the extent that the enforceability of any provisions in this Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be limited by Debtor Relief Laws, as determined in good faith by Administrative Agent, then such provisions shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited.
9.2.5Time of the Essence. Time shall be of the essence with respect to Borrowers’ obligations under the Loan Documents.
9.2.6Governing Law. This Agreement and each other Loan Document (except to the extent expressly set forth therein), and their respective validity, enforcement and interpretation, shall be governed by the Laws of the State of California (without regard to any conflict of Laws principles) and applicable United States federal Law.
9.2.7Electronic Delivery.
(a)Documents required to be delivered pursuant to Sections 4.8 and Section 4.22 (to the extent any such documents are included in materials otherwise filed with the SEC) may be delivered electronically (including by use of the Platform, the Online Banking Portal, or such other delivery method that is commercially reasonable for the Borrower provided such delivery method has been reasonably approved by Administrative Agent) and if so delivered, shall be deemed to have been delivered on the date (i) on which Borrower posts such documents, uploads such documents on the Platform, the Online Banking Portal, or such other delivery method as may be approved by Administrative Agent; or (ii) on which such documents are posted on Borrower’s behalf on an Internet or intranet website, if any, to which each Lender and Administrative Agent have access (whether a commercial, third-party website or whether sponsored by Administrative Agent); provided that: (A) Borrower shall deliver paper copies of such documents to Administrative Agent or any Lender upon its request to Borrower to deliver such paper copies
Amended and Restated Loan Agreement
(Conformed through Eighth Modification)

77



until a written request to cease delivering paper copies is given by Administrative Agent or such Lender and (B) Borrower shall notify Administrative Agent and each Lender (by facsimile or electronic mail) of the posting of any such documents and (to the extent possible) provide to Administrative Agent by electronic mail electronic versions (i.e., soft copies) of such documents. Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to request the delivery of or to maintain paper copies of the documents referred to above, and in any event shall have no responsibility to monitor compliance by Borrower with any such request by a Lender for delivery, and each Lender shall be solely responsible for requesting delivery to it or maintaining its copies of such documents.
(b)Borrower hereby acknowledges that (i) Administrative Agent and/or Arranger may, but shall not be obligated to, make available to the Lenders materials and/or information provided by or on behalf of Borrower hereunder (collectively, “Borrower Materials”) by posting the Borrower Materials on Debt Domain, IntraLinks, SyndTrak or another similar electronic system (the “Platform”) and (ii) certain of the Lenders (each, a “Public Lender”) may have personnel who do not wish to receive material non-public information with respect to Borrower or its Affiliates, or the respective securities of any of the foregoing, and who may be engaged in investment and other market-related activities with respect to such Person’s securities. Borrower hereby agrees that so long as Borrower is the issuer of any outstanding debt or equity securities that are registered or issued pursuant to a private offering or is actively contemplating issuing any such securities (w) all Borrower Materials that are to be made available to Public Lenders shall be clearly and conspicuously marked “PUBLIC” which, at a minimum, shall mean that the word “PUBLIC” shall appear prominently on the first page thereof; (A) by marking Borrower Materials “PUBLIC,” Borrower shall be deemed to have authorized Administrative Agent, Arranger and Lenders to treat such Borrower Materials as not containing any material non-public information with respect to Borrower or its securities for purposes of United States Federal and state securities Laws (provided, however, that to the extent such Borrower Materials constitute Information, they shall be treated as set forth in Section 9.5); (B) all Borrower Materials marked “PUBLIC” are permitted to be made available through a portion of the Platform designated “Public Side Information,” and (C) Administrative Agent and Arranger shall be entitled to treat any Borrower Materials that are not marked “PUBLIC” as being suitable only for posting on a portion of the Platform not designated “Public Side Information.” Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower shall be under no obligation to mark any Borrower Materials “PUBLIC.”

(c)The Platform. THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” AGENT PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM, AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS IN OR OMISSIONS FROM THE BORROWER MATERIALS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY ANY AGENT PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE PLATFORM. In no event shall Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties (collectively, the “Agent Parties”) have any liability to Borrower, any Lender, or any other Person for losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses of any kind (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of Borrower’s, any Guarantor’s or Administrative Agent’s transmission of Borrower Materials or notices through the Platform, any other electronic platform or electronic messaging service, or through the Internet.
(d)Change of Address, Etc. Each of Borrower or Administrative Agent may change its address, facsimile or telephone number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto. Each other Lender may change its address, facsimile or telephone number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to Borrower and Administrative Agent. In addition, each Lender agrees to notify Administrative Agent from time to time to ensure that Administrative Agent has on record (i) an effective address, contact name, telephone number, facsimile number and electronic mail address to which notices and other communications may be sent and (ii) accurate wire instructions for such Lender. Furthermore, each Public Lender agrees to cause at least one individual at or on behalf of such Public Lender to at all times have selected the “Private Side Information” or similar designation on the content declaration screen of the Platform in order to enable such Public Lender or its delegate, in accordance with such Public Lender’s compliance procedures and Applicable Law, including United States Federal and state securities Laws, to make reference to Borrower Materials that are not made available through the “Public Side Information” portion of the Platform and that may contain material non-public information with respect to Borrower or its securities for purposes of United States Federal or state securities laws.
(e)Reliance by Administrative Agent and Lenders. Administrative Agent and Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices (including telephonic notices, any notices received by Administrative Agent given through the Online Banking Portal, and Draw Requests) purportedly given by or on behalf of Borrowers even if (i) such notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other form of notice specified herein, or (ii) the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof. Borrowers shall indemnify Administrative Agent, each Lender and the Related Parties of each of them from all losses, costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the
Amended and Restated Loan Agreement
(Conformed through Eighth Modification)

80



reliance by such Person on each notice purportedly given by or on behalf of any Borrower. All telephonic notices to and other telephonic communications with Administrative Agent may be recorded by Administrative Agent, and each of the parties hereto hereby consents to such recording. If a Lender does not notify or inform Administrative Agent of whether or not it consents to, or approves of, or agrees to any matter of any nature whatsoever with respect to which its consent, approval or agreement is required under the express provisions of this Agreement or with respect to which its consent, approval or agreement is otherwise requested by Administrative Agent, in connection with the Loan or any matter pertaining to the Loan, within ten (10) Business Days (or such longer period as may be specified by Administrative Agent) after such consent, approval or agreement is requested by Administrative Agent, Lender shall be deemed to have given its consent, approval or agreement, as the case may be, with respect to the matter in question.
9.3Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of any Borrower is made to Administrative Agent or any Lender, or Administrative Agent or any Lender exercises any right of set-off, and such payment or the proceeds of such set-off or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by Administrative Agent or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law, to a depository (including Administrative Agent, any Lender or its or their Affiliates) for returned items or insufficient collected funds, or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such set-off had not occurred, and (b) each Lender severally agrees to pay to Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share of any amount so recovered from or repaid by Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect.
9.4Successors and Assigns.
(a)Successors and Assigns Generally. Subject to Section 8.13, the provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that no Borrower may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent and each Lender, and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an assignee in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.4(b), (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.4(d), or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of Section 9.4(e) (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent permitted in Section 9.4(d) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of Administrative Agent and Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.
(b)Assignments by Lenders. Any Lender may assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its
Amended and Restated Loan Agreement
(Conformed through Eighth Modification)

81



Commitment and Pro Rata Share of the Loan at the time owing to it); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:
(i)Minimum Amounts.
(A)in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and Pro Rata Share of the Loan at the time owing to it or contemporaneous assignments to related Approved Funds that equal at least the amount specified in Section 9.4(b)(i)(B) in the aggregate or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and
(B)in any case not described in Section 9.4(b)(i)(A), the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes the Pro Rata Share of the Loan outstanding) or, if the Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding Pro Rata Share of the Loan that is subject to each such assignment, determined as of the date the “Effective Date” specified in the Assignment and Assumption, shall not be less than $10,000,000 unless each of Administrative Agent and, so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrowers otherwise consent (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), and, with respect to the consent of Borrowers, shall be deemed given if Administrative Agent does not receive a written disapproval from Borrowers within five (5) Business Days after delivery of any request for consent.
Borrowers shall not be required to (a) execute any documents in connection with any such assignment that expand any of the obligations of Borrowers hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents or create any additional covenants, representations or warranties of any Borrower hereunder or thereunder, or (b) provide any representations or warranties confirming the accuracy of any information or otherwise.
(ii)Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to its Pro Rata Share of the Loan and the Commitment assigned.
(iii)Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by Section 9.4(b)(i)(B) and, in addition:
(A)so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing, the consent of Borrowers shall be required (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed; it being understood and agreed that it shall be reasonable for Borrowers to withhold their consent if, as a result of such assignment (X) Borrowers will be required to make additional payments in respect of Indemnified Taxes as provided in Section 2.1, (Y) Borrowers demonstrate to Administrative Agent’s reasonable satisfaction that, in the future, Borrowers will likely be required to make additional payments in

(Conformed through Eighth Modification)

82



respect of Indemnified Taxes as provided in Section 2.1, or (Z) any such assignment would result in a termination of any Swap Contract that Borrower is a party to; provided that Borrowers shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days after having received notice thereof; and
(B)the consent of Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required if such assignment is to a Person that is not a Lender, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender.
(iv)Assignment and Assumption. The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee in the amount of $3,500; provided, however, that Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment. The assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.
(v)No Assignment to Certain Persons. No such assignment shall be made (A) to any Borrower, Guarantor or any other Person liable for any part of the Obligations or any of Affiliate or subsidiary of the foregoing, (B) to any Defaulting Lender or any of its subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (B), or (C) to a natural Person.
(vi)Certain Additional Payments. In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of Borrower and Administrative Agent, the applicable Pro Rata Share of the Loan previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon) and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full Pro Rata Share of the Loan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable Law without compliance with the provisions of this Section 9.4(b), then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

(Conformed through Eighth Modification)

83



Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 9.4(c), from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of this Agreement with respect to Borrowers’ obligations surviving termination of this Agreement); provided, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. Upon request by Administrative Agent, each Borrower (at its expense to the extent that the expenses of Borrowers do not exceed $10,000) shall execute and deliver substitute Note(s) to Administrative Agent for the assignee, and, for partial assignments, the assignor in replacement of the assignor’s then-existing Note (each, a “Replacement Note”). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 9.4(b) shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 9.4(d). For purposes of clarification and notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, if Borrowers’ expenses relating to a Replacement Note exceed $10,000, such expenses exceeding $10,000 shall be borne by the Lender or Lenders receiving replacement notes pro rata in accordance with such Lenders’ Pro Rata Shares.
(c)Register. Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of Borrowers (and such agency being solely for tax purposes), shall maintain at Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it (or the equivalent thereof in electronic form) and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of Lenders, and the Commitments of, and the principal amount (and stated interest) of each Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Loan owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and Borrowers, Administrative Agent and Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by Borrowers and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior written notice.
(d)Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, any Borrower or Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural Person, a Defaulting Lender, any Borrower, Guarantor or any Affiliate or subsidiary of any Borrower or Guarantor) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or its Pro Rata Share of the Loan owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) Borrowers, Administrative Agent and Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, each Lender shall be responsible for the indemnity under Section 8.7 without regard to the existence of any participation.

Amended and Restated Loan Agreement
(Conformed through Eighth Modification)

84



Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in the second proviso of Section 9.9 that affects such Participant. Each Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.1, 2.5 and 2.6 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 9.4(b) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.1(e) shall be delivered to the Lender who sells the participation) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 9.4(b); provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Sections 2.7 and 9.11 as if it were an assignee under Section 9.4(b) and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.1 or 2.5, with respect to any participation, than the Lender from whom it acquired the applicable participation would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at Borrowers’ written request, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with Borrowers to effectuate the provisions of Section 2.7 with respect to any Participant. To the extent permitted by Law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.7 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 9.8 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of Borrowers, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amount (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loan or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.
(e)Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Note, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.
9.5Treatment of Certain Information; Confidentiality. Administrative Agent and each Lender agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and
Amended and Restated Loan Agreement
(Conformed through Eighth Modification)

85



instructed to keep such Information confidential); (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority; (c) to the extent required by applicable Laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process; (d) to any other party to this Agreement; (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the enforcement of rights hereunder; (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 9.5, to (i) any assignee of or participant in, pledgee of or assignee of a security interest in, or any prospective assignee of or participant in, or pledgee of or assignee of a security interest in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, or (ii) any direct or indirect contractual counterparty or prospective counterparty (or such contractual counterparty’s or prospective counterparty’s professional advisor) to any Swap Transaction or credit derivative transaction relating to obligations of any Borrower or Guarantor; (g) with the consent of Borrowers; or (h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 9.5 or (ii) becomes available to Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than a Borrower; or (i) on a confidential basis to (i) any rating agency in connection with rating any Borrower or any Guarantor or the Loan provided hereunder or (ii) the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP numbers or other market identifiers with respect to the Loan provided hereunder. In addition, Administrative Agent and the Lenders may disclose the existence of this Agreement and information about this Agreement to market data collectors, similar service providers to the lending industry and service providers to Administrative Agent and the Lenders in connection with the administration of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and the Commitments.
For the purposes of this Section 9.5, “Information” means all information received from any Borrower or Guarantor relating to any Borrower or Guarantor or their business, other than any such information that is available to Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by a Borrower or Guarantor; provided that in the case of information received from any Borrower or Guarantor after the Closing Date, such information is clearly identified in writing at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 9.5 shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information. Administrative Agent and Lenders may disclose the existence of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and information about this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to market data collectors, similar service providers to the lending industry, and service providers to Administrative Agent and Lenders in connection with the administration and management of this Agreement, the Loan and Loan Documents.
Each of Administrative Agent and the Lenders acknowledges that (a) the Information may include material non-public information concerning Borrower or a Guarantor, as the case may be, (b) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public information and (c) it will handle such material non-public information in accordance with applicable Law, including United States Federal and state securities Laws.
9.6Set-off. In addition to any rights and remedies of Administrative Agent and Lenders provided by Law, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default, Administrative
Amended and Restated Loan Agreement
(Conformed through Eighth Modification)

86



Agent and, with the prior written consent of Administrative Agent, each Lender, is authorized at any time and from time to time, without prior written notice to Borrowers, any such notice being waived by each Borrower, to set-off and apply any and all deposits, general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, any time owing by Administrative Agent or Lenders hereunder or under any other Loan Document to or for the credit or the account of such parties to the Loan Documents against any and all Indebtedness, irrespective of whether or not Administrative Agent or Lenders shall have made demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such Indebtedness may be contingent or unmatured or denominated in a currency different from that of the applicable depositor indebtedness. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify any applicable Borrower and Administrative Agent after any such set off and application made by such Lender; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set off and application. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as any Property is located in California, neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender nor any assignee, Participant or Affiliate thereof (each, a “Lender Party”) shall proceed directly, by right of set-off, banker’s lien, counterclaim or otherwise, against any assets of any Borrower or Guarantor (including any general or special, time or demand, provisional or other deposits or other indebtedness owing by such Lender Party to or for the credit or the account of any Borrower or Guarantor) for the purpose of applying such assets against the Indebtedness, without the prior written consent of all Lenders.
9.7Sharing of Payments. If, other than as expressly provided elsewhere herein, any Lender shall obtain on account of the portions of the Loan advanced by it, any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise) in excess of its ratable share (or other share contemplated hereunder) thereof, such Lender shall immediately (a) notify Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the portions of the Loan made by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment in respect of such portions of the Loan or such participations, as the case may be, pro rata with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from the purchasing Lender, such purchase shall to that extent be rescinded and each other Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price paid therefor, together with an amount equal to such paying Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such paying Lender’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered without further interest thereon. Each Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender may, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, exercise all of its rights of payment (including the right of set-off), but subject to Section 9.7 with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of such Borrower in the amount of such participation. Administrative Agent will keep records (which shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error) of participations purchased under this Section 9.7 and will in each case notify Lenders following any such purchases or repayments. Each Lender that purchases a participation pursuant to this Section 9.7 shall from and after such purchase have the right to give all notices, requests, demands, directions and other communications under this Agreement with respect to the portion of the Obligations purchased to the same extent as though the purchasing Lender were the original owner of the Obligations purchased.

9.8Amendments; Survival. Administrative Agent and Lenders shall be entitled to amend (whether pursuant to a separate intercreditor agreement or otherwise) any of the terms, conditions or agreements set forth in Article 8 or as to any other matter in the Loan Documents respecting payments to Administrative Agent or Lenders or the required number of Lenders to approve or disapprove any matter or to take or refrain from taking any action, without the consent of any Borrower or any other Person or the execution by any Borrower or any other Person of any such amendment or intercreditor agreement. Subject to the foregoing, Administrative Agent may amend or waive any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or consent to any departure by any party to the Loan Documents therefrom which amendment, waiver or consent is intended to be within Administrative Agent’s discretion or determination, or does not relate to a monetary or material non-monetary provision or term of the Loan Documents); provided, however, that otherwise no such amendment, waiver or consent shall be effective unless in writing, signed by the Required Lenders and any applicable Borrower or the applicable party to the Loan Documents, as the case may be, and acknowledged by Administrative Agent, and each such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; and provided, further, that no such amendment, waiver or consent shall:

each affected Lender that by its terms affects any Defaulting Lender disproportionately adversely relative to other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender.
This Agreement shall continue in full force and effect until the Indebtedness is paid in full and all of Administrative Agent’s and Lenders’ obligations under this Agreement are terminated; and all representations and warranties and all provisions herein for indemnity of the Indemnitees, Administrative Agent and Lenders (and any other provisions herein specified to survive) shall survive the resignation or removal of Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, any Lender, the termination of the Commitments, the termination of this Agreement and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations.
9.9Several Obligations; No Liability; No Release. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (a) the obligations of Lenders hereunder to make Loan advances and to make payments pursuant to Sections 8.7 and 8.12 are several and not joint and (b) such obligations are and shall remain the several, and not joint, obligations of Lenders despite that certain of the Loan Documents now or hereafter may have been or will be executed only by or in favor of Administrative Agent in its capacity as such, and not by or in favor of Lenders. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan advance or to make any payment under Section 8.7 or 8.12 on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan advance or to make its payment under Section 8.7 or 8.12. Except as may be specifically provided in this Agreement, no Lender shall have any liability for the acts of any other Lender. No Lender shall be responsible to any Borrower or any other Person to take any action on behalf of another Lender hereunder or in connection with the financing contemplated herein. In furtherance of the foregoing, Lenders shall comply with their obligations under the Loan Documents, including the obligations to make payments pursuant to Sections 8.7 and 8.12 regardless of (i) the occurrence of any Default hereunder or under any Loan Document; (ii) any failure of consideration, absence of consideration, misrepresentation, fraud, or any other event, failure, deficiency, breach or irregularity of any nature whatsoever in the Loan Documents; or (iii) any bankruptcy, insolvency or other like event with regard to any Borrower or Guarantor. Such obligations of Lenders are in all regards independent of any claims between Administrative Agent and any Lender.
9.10Intentionally Omitted.
9.11Replacement of Lenders. If Borrowers are entitled to replace a Lender pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.6, or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender or a Non-Consenting Lender, then Borrowers may, so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing, at their sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 9.4), all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Sections 2.1 and 2.5) and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that:

(b)such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the Principal Debt owing to it, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 2.6) from the assignee (to the extent of such Principal Debt and accrued interest and fees) or Borrowers (in case of all other amounts);
(c)in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.5 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.1, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; and
(d)such assignment does not conflict with applicable Laws; and
(e)in the case of an assignment resulting from a Lender becoming a Non-Consenting Lender, the applicable assignee shall have consented to the applicable amendment, waiver or consent.
A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling Borrowers to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.
9.12Further Assurances. Each Borrower will, upon Administrative Agent’s request, (a) promptly correct any defect, error or omission in any Loan Document; (b) execute, acknowledge, deliver, procure, record or file such further instruments and do such further acts as Administrative Agent deems reasonably necessary, reasonably desirable or reasonably proper to carry out the purposes of the Loan Documents and to identify and subject to the liens and security interest of the Loan Documents any property intended to be covered thereby, including any renewals, additions, substitutions, replacements, or appurtenances to any Property; (c) execute, acknowledge, deliver, procure, file or record any document or instrument Administrative Agent deems reasonably necessary, desirable, or proper to protect the liens or the security interest under the Loan Documents against the rights or interests of third persons; and (d) provide such certificates, documents, reports, information, affidavits and other instruments and do such further acts deemed reasonably necessary, reasonably desirable or reasonably proper by Administrative Agent or any Lender to comply with the requirements of any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over Administrative Agent or such Lender. In addition, at any time, and from time to time, upon written request by Administrative Agent or, subject to the provisions of Section 4.8(e), any Lender, each Borrower will, at Borrowers’ expense, provide any and all further instruments, certificates and other documents as may, in the reasonable opinion of Administrative Agent or such Lender, be reasonably necessary or reasonably desirable in order to verify any Borrower’s identity and background in a manner reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent or such Lender.

9.14Forum. Each Borrower hereby irrevocably submits generally and unconditionally for itself and in respect of its property to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any state court, or any United States federal court, sitting in the State specified in Section 9.2 of this Agreement and to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any state court or any United States federal court, sitting in the state in which any Property is located, over any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or the Obligations. Each Borrower hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, any objection that they may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue in any such court and any claim that any such court is an inconvenient forum. Each Borrower hereby agrees and consents that, in addition to any methods of service of process provided for under applicable Law, all service of process in any such suit, action or proceeding in any state court, or any United States federal court, sitting in the state specified in Section 9.2 may be made by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, directed to such party at its address for notice stated in the Loan Documents, or at a subsequent address of which Administrative Agent received actual notice from Borrowers in accordance with the Loan Documents, and service so made shall be complete five (5) days after the same shall have been so mailed. Nothing herein shall affect the right of Administrative Agent to serve process in any manner permitted by Law or limit the right of Administrative Agent to bring proceedings against any party in any other court or jurisdiction.
9.15Interpretation. References to Articles, Sections, and Exhibits are, unless specified otherwise, references to articles, sections and exhibits of this Agreement. Captions and headings in the Loan Documents are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction of the Loan Documents. All references (a) to the Loan Documents are to the same as extended, amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time unless expressly indicated otherwise, and (b) to any Land, any Improvements or any Property shall mean all or any portion of each of the foregoing, respectively.

Guarantor and their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and Administrative Agent, Arranger, and the Lenders, on the other hand, (B) each of Borrower and Guarantor has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate, and (C) each Borrower and each Guarantor is capable of evaluating, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents; (ii) (A) Administrative Agent, Arranger and each Lender is and has been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for Borrowers, any Guarantor or any of their respective Affiliates, or any other Person and (B) neither Administrative Agent, Arranger nor any Lender has any obligation to Borrowers, any Guarantor or any of their respective Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; and (iii) Administrative Agent, Arranger and the Lenders and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of Borrowers, the Guarantor and their respective Affiliates, and neither Administrative Agent, Arranger, nor any Lender has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to any Borrower, any Guarantor or any of their respective Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by law, each Borrower and each Guarantor hereby waive and release any claims that they may have against Administrative Agent, Arranger or any Lender with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby. Nothing contained in the Loan Documents, and no action taken or omitted pursuant to the Loan Documents, is intended or shall be construed to create any partnership, joint venture, association or special relationship between any Borrower and Administrative Agent or any Lender or in any way make Administrative Agent or any Lender a co-principal with any Borrower with reference to the Property or otherwise. In no event shall Administrative Agent’s or Lenders’ rights and interests under the Loan Documents be construed to give Administrative Agent or any Lender the right to control, or be deemed to indicate that Administrative Agent or any Lender is in control of, the business, properties, management or operations of any Borrower.
9.17Commercial Purpose. Each Borrower warrants that the Loan is being made solely to acquire or carry on a business or commercial enterprise, and/or Borrower is a business or commercial organization. Each Borrower further warrants that all of the proceeds of the Loan shall be used for commercial purposes and stipulates that the Loan shall be construed for all purposes as a commercial loan, and is made for other than personal, family, household or agricultural purposes.
9.18Usury.

If applicable state or federal Law should at any time be judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount called for under any of the Loan Documents, or contracted for, charged, taken, reserved, or received with respect to the Loan, or if Administrative Agent’s exercise of the option to accelerate the Maturity Date, or if any prepayment by Borrowers results in Borrowers’ having paid any interest in excess of that permitted by applicable Law, then it is Administrative Agent’s and each Lender’s express intent that all excess amounts theretofore

collected by Administrative Agent or any Lender shall be credited on the Principal Debt and all other Indebtedness and the provisions of the Loan Documents shall immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new documents, so as to comply with the applicable Law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder or thereunder. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Lenders for the use, forbearance, or detention of the Loan shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, be amortized, prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the full stated term of the Loan until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Loan does not exceed the maximum lawful rate from time to time in effect and applicable to the Loan for so long as the Loan is outstanding.

The referee shall be empowered to enter equitable as well as legal relief, provide all temporary or provisional remedies, enter equitable and legal orders that will be binding on the Dispute Parties, and rule on any motion which would be authorized in court litigation, including motions to dismiss, for summary judgment, or for summary adjudication. For the avoidance of doubt, (i) the proceeding before the referee shall be conducted in the same manner as it would be before a court under the rules of evidence applicable to judicial proceedings, (ii) the Dispute Parties shall be entitled to discovery which shall be conducted in the same manner as it would be before a court under the rules of discovery applicable to judicial proceedings, and (iii) the referee shall oversee discovery and may enforce all discovery rules and order applicable to judicial proceedings in the same manner as a trial court judge. The referee shall award legal fees and costs (including the fees of the referee) relating to the judicial reference proceeding, and to any related litigation or arbitration, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The award that results from the decision of the referee shall be entered as a judgment in the court that appointed the referee, in accordance with the provisions of California Code of Civil Procedure Sections 644(a). Pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure Sections 645, the Dispute Parties reserve the right to seek appellate review of any judgment or order, including but not limited to, orders pertaining to class certification, to the same extent permitted in a court of law.
9.20Service of Process. Each Borrower hereby irrevocably designates and appoints Todd Smith as such Borrower’s authorized agent to accept and acknowledge on such Borrower’s behalf service of any and all process that may be served in any suit, action, or proceeding instituted in connection with the Loan in any state or federal court sitting in the State of California.

Each Borrower hereby consents to process being served in any suit, action, or proceeding instituted in connection with the Loan by (a) the mailing of a copy thereof by certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, to such Borrower and (b) serving a copy thereof upon the agent hereinabove designated and appointed by each Borrower as such Borrower’s agent for service of

(Conformed through Eighth Modification)

95



process. Each Borrower irrevocably agrees that such service shall be deemed to be service of process upon such Borrower in any such suit, action, or proceeding. Nothing herein or in any other Loan Document shall (i) affect the right of Administrative Agent to serve process in any manner otherwise permitted by Law or (b) limit the right of Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders otherwise to bring proceedings against any Borrower in the courts of any jurisdiction or jurisdictions.
9.21No Delays; Defaults. No delay or omission of Administrative Agent or Lenders to exercise any right, power or remedy accruing upon the happening of a Default shall impair any such right, power or remedy or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such Default or any acquiescence therein. No delay or omission on the part of Administrative Agent or Lenders to exercise any option for acceleration of the maturity of the Indebtedness, or for foreclosure of any Security Instrument or Pledge Agreement following any Default as aforesaid, or any other option granted to Administrative Agent and Lenders hereunder in any one or more instances, or the acceptances by Administrative Agent or Lenders of any partial payment on account of the Obligations, shall constitute a waiver of any such Default, and each such option shall remain continuously in full force and effect. No remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to Administrative Agent and/or Lenders is intended to be exclusive of any other remedies provided for in any Note or any of the other Loan Documents, and each and every such remedy shall be cumulative, and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder, or under any Note or any of the other Loan Documents, or now or hereafter existing at Law or in equity or by statute. Every right, power and remedy given to Administrative Agent and Lenders by this Agreement, any Note or any of the other Loan Documents shall be concurrent, and may be pursued separately, successively or together against any Borrower, Guarantor, any other Person liable for any part of the Obligations, any Property, or any other Collateral, and every right, power and remedy given by this Agreement, any Note or any of the other Loan Documents may be exercised from time to time as often as may be deemed expedient by the Required Lenders. No application of payments will cure any Default, or prevent acceleration, or continued acceleration, of amounts payable under the Loan Documents, or prevent the exercise, or continued exercise, of rights or remedies of Administrative Agent and Lenders hereunder or thereunder or at Law or in equity.
9.22USA PATRIOT Act; Beneficial Ownership Regulation. Each Lender that is subject to the PATRIOT Act (as hereinafter defined) and Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notify Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “PATRIOT Act”) and 31 C.F.R. § 1010.230 (the “Beneficial Ownership Regulation”), they are required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies Borrower, which information includes the name and address of Borrower, a Beneficial Ownership Certification, and other information that will allow such Lender or Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify Borrower in accordance with the PATRIOT Act and the Beneficial Ownership Regulation. Borrower shall, promptly following a request by Administrative Agent or any Lender, provide all documentation and other information that Administrative Agent or such Lender reasonably requests in order to comply with its ongoing obligations under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the PATRIOT Act and the Beneficial Ownership Regulation.

9.23Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of Affected Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Lender that is an Affected Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:
(a)the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the applicable Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any Lender that is an Affected Financial Institution; and
(b)the effects of any Bail-in Action on any such liability, including, if applicable;

(ii)a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or
(iii)the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the write-down and conversion powers of the applicable Resolution Authority.
9.24Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs. To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guaranty, mortgage, or otherwise, for any Swap Contract or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support”, and each such QFC, a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States):
In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might

otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.
9.25Online Banking Portal. Each Borrower hereby represents and warrants to Administrative Agent and each Lender that each individual identified as an Authorized Signer in the Borrower’s Instruction Certificate has the power and authority to delegate, to one or more Authorized Portal Users, the power and authority to utilize and perform any and all Online Facility Transactions available to Borrowers from time to time under any Online Banking Portal based on the terms of this Agreement and the Online Portal Agreements, and to bind Borrower with respect to any and all Online Facility Transactions performed on behalf of Borrowers on such Online Banking Portal by such Authorized Portal Users. Administrative Agent may rely, without further investigation, upon the foregoing representation and warranty by Borrowers, and Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for any Online Facility Transactions or other actions taken by any Authorized Portal Users in connection with the Online Banking Portal. Additionally, Administrative Agent shall not be responsible to any Borrower, any Lender or any other Person for any loss, claim, liability, damage, cost or expense resulting from, related to, arising from or caused by any Online Facility Transactions or other actions by any Authorized Portal Users on the Online Banking Portal. Any Online Portal Agreements delivered to Administrative Agent that are signed by an Authorized Signer shall be conclusively presumed to have been authorized by all necessary corporate, partnership and/or other action on the part of Borrowers, and each Authorized Portal User shall be conclusively presumed to have acted on behalf of such Borrower. In the event of any conflict between the Online Portal Agreements and this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall control.
9.26Entire Agreement. The Loan Documents constitute the entire understanding and agreement between and among Borrowers, Administrative Agent and Lenders with respect to the transactions arising in connection with the Loan, and supersede all prior written or oral understandings and agreements between and among Borrowers, Administrative Agent and Lenders with respect to the matters addressed in the Loan Documents. In particular, and without limitation, the terms of any commitment letter, letter of intent or quote letter by Administrative Agent or any Lender to make the Loan are merged into the Loan Documents. Neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender has made any commitments to extend the term of the Loan past its stated maturity date or to provide any Borrower with financing except as set forth in the Loan Documents.

NOTHING CONTAINED IN THE IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING SENTENCE SHALL PREVENT OR PROHIBIT BORROWER FROM INSTITUTING OR MAINTAINING A SEPARATE ACTION AGAINST LENDER WITH RESPECT TO ANY ASSERTED CLAIM.
9.27Limitation on Liability. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, no Borrower shall assert, and each Borrower hereby waives, and acknowledges that no other Person shall have, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, incidental, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, the Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed to such unintended recipients by such Indemnitee through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby other than for direct or actual damages resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee as determined by a final and nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.
9.28Third Parties; Benefit. All conditions to the obligation of Lenders or Administrative Agent to make advances hereunder are imposed solely and exclusively for the benefit of Lenders, Administrative Agent and their assigns and no other Persons shall have standing to require satisfaction of such conditions in accordance with their terms or be entitled to assume that Lenders or Administrative Agent will refuse to make advances in the absence of strict compliance with any or all thereof and no other Person shall, under any circumstances, be deemed to be the beneficiary of such conditions, any or all of which may be freely waived in whole or in part by Lenders or Administrative Agent at any time in the sole and absolute exercise of their discretion. Subject to Section 8.14, the provisions of this Agreement and, except to the extent expressly set forth therein, each other Loan Document, are for the sole benefit of Administrative Agent, Lenders and each Borrower, and no other Person shall have any right or cause of action on account thereof or interest therein.
9.29Other Transactions. In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document), each Borrower acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges Guarantor’s and each Borrower’s other Affiliates’ understanding, that: (a) (i) the arranging and other services regarding this Agreement provided by the Administrative Agent, the Arranger, and the Lenders are arm’s-length commercial transactions between Borrowers, Guarantor and their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and Administrative Agent, the Arranger, and the Lenders, on the other hand, (ii) each Borrower and Guarantor has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate, and (iii) each Borrower and

Guarantor is capable of evaluating, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents; (b) (i) Administrative Agent, the Arranger and each Lender is and has been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for any Borrower, Guarantor or any of their respective Affiliates, or any other Person and (ii) neither Administrative Agent, the Arranger, nor any Lender has any obligation to any Borrower, Guarantor or any of their respective Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; and (c) Administrative Agent, the Arranger, the Lenders and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of Borrowers, Guarantor and their respective Affiliates, and neither Administrative Agent, the Arranger, nor any Lender has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to any Borrower, Guarantor or any of their respective Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by law, each Borrower and Guarantor hereby waives and releases any claims that it may have against Administrative Agent, the Arranger or any Lender with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby.
9.30Limited Recourse Provision. Neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any recourse against, nor shall there be any personal liability to, the members of any Borrower, or to any shareholders, members, partners, beneficial interest holders or any other entity or person in the ownership (directly or indirectly) of any Borrower with respect to the obligations of any Borrower and Guarantor under the Loan. For purposes of clarification, in no event shall the above language limit, reduce or otherwise affect any Borrower's liability or obligations under the Loan Documents, Guarantor’s liability or obligations under the Guaranty, or the obligations or liability of any Pledgor under any Pledge Agreement or of any party under any confirmation or acknowledgment delivered pursuant to a Pledge Agreement, or Administrative Agent’s and each Lender’s right to exercise any rights or remedies against any collateral securing the Loan.
9.31Releases and Reconveyances of Properties. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Loan Documents, no release or reconveyance of any Property shall be permitted on or prior to the Maturity Date, except in accordance with the provisions of this Section 9.31 or unless otherwise approved in writing by all Lenders, in each Lender’s sole and absolute discretion, subject (as among the Lenders) to Section 8.10.
(a)At the request of a Borrower, which request shall be delivered to Administrative Agent in writing not less than thirty (30) days prior to the date of any proposed release or reconveyance, Administrative Agent shall promptly issue a release or reconveyance (as applicable) from the lien of a Security Instrument of the entirety of the Property encumbered thereby (subject to Section 9.31(d)) so long as all of the following conditions are satisfied at the time of, and with respect to, the release or reconveyance:
(i)No Default or Potential Default shall have occurred and be continuing; and

(Conformed through Eighth Modification)

100



(ii)Administrative Agent shall have been paid, in immediately available funds, the cost of preparing and delivering the release or reconveyance and of any title insurance endorsements reasonably required by Administrative Agent (to the extent available);
(iii)such release or reconveyance is in connection with an all-cash, arm’s length sale of such Property to an unaffiliated third party resulting in Net Sale Proceeds at least equal to, unless otherwise approved by the Required Lenders, (x) in the case of the Sterling Plaza Property, the Net Sale Proceeds that would result from a gross sale price at least equal to 103% of the “As-Is” Appraised Value for such Property or (y) in the case of any other Property, the greater of (A) 90% of the “As-Is” Appraised Value for such Property and (B) an amount sufficient, when the portions thereof to be applied to the Principal Debt and deposited into the Cash Sweep Collateral Account in accordance with this Section 9.31(a) are so applied and deposited, to cause the Loan-to-Value Ratio of the remaining Properties after such release or reconveyance to be no greater than ninety percent (90%), in each case with respect to clauses (x), (y)(A) and (y)(B) above, based upon the most recent Acceptable Appraisal of the applicable Property or Properties dated no earlier than twelve (12) months prior to the date of the proposed release or reconveyance;
(iv)the applicable Borrower shall deposit (each such deposit, an “Applicable Per Project Sale Proceeds Deposit Amount”) into the Cash Sweep Collateral Account a portion of the Net Sale Proceeds from such sale in an amount equal to the lesser of (A) (i) $30,000,000 with respect to the first sale of a Property after the Eighth Modification Date and (ii) $15,000,000 with respect to each subsequent sale of a Property and (B) all of such Net Sale Proceeds, provided that in no event shall Borrowers be permitted (or required) to deposit, in the aggregate, Applicable Per Project Sale Proceeds Deposit Amounts pursuant to this clause (iv) in excess of $45,000,000 (provided further that funds deemed to be Applicable Per Project Sale Proceeds Deposit Amounts pursuant to Section 5.9(c) shall not contribute to such $45,000,000 cap); and
(v)Administrative Agent shall have been paid, in immediately available funds, for the ratable benefit of Lenders and application to the Obligations in accordance with Section 9.31(a), all Net Sale Proceeds from such sale not deposited into the Cash Sweep Collateral Account in accordance with clause (iv) above.
(b)Any Net Sale Proceeds received by Administrative Agent under Section 9.31(a)(v) shall be applied first to reduce the outstanding principal balance of the Loan in accordance with Section 1.5 and thereafter to repay all other remaining Obligations of Borrowers. If Administrative Agent accepts any payment or issues any release or reconveyance, that shall not affect Borrowers’ obligation to repay all amounts which are owing under the Loan Documents or secured by a Security Instrument or Pledge Agreement on the remaining Property or other Collateral which is not released or reconveyed. If Administrative Agent and the Lenders do not require satisfaction of all of the conditions described above before releasing any Property from the lien of a Security

Instrument, that alone shall not be a waiver of such conditions with respect to the release of any additional Property, and Administrative Agent and the Lenders reserves the right to require their satisfaction in full before releasing any additional Property from the lien of a Security Instrument.
(c)In the event of any default by the prospective purchaser of a Property that Borrowers have proposed for release or reconveyance pursuant to Section 9.31(a) under the applicable purchase agreement (or any other circumstance thereunder) with respect to which the applicable Borrower is entitled to receive the good faith deposit made by such purchaser thereunder, the applicable Borrower hereby assigns its rights thereto to Administrative Agent; agrees that such amount, less any reasonable, ordinary and customary out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Borrower in connection with the proposed sale and release, shall be paid by the escrow agent directly to Administrative Agent, for remittance to the Lenders for application to the principal balance of the Loan; and shall deliver instructions to the escrow agent consistent herewith. Each Borrower agrees to (i) perform all material covenants, representations, terms, undertakings, obligations, warranties, and agreements as seller under any such purchase agreement so as to prevent a default by such Borrower thereunder, except to the extent Administrative Agent or Lender consent is required in connection with the performance thereof pursuant to this Agreement and no such consent is given; (ii) use commercially reasonable efforts to enforce, or secure the performance by the such purchaser of, the material covenants, representations, warranties, terms, obligations and agreements of such purchaser contained in such purchase agreement; (iii) enforce and secure all remedies available to such Borrower under such purchase agreement upon any material default by such purchaser thereunder; (iv) give prompt notice to Administrative Agent and deliver to Administrative Agent complete copies of any notice of default delivered or received by such Borrower under such purchase agreement; and (v) execute such additional instruments or assignments of such Borrower’s rights under such purchase agreement (including, without limitation, instructions to the escrow agent with respect to the assignment of such Borrower’s rights thereunder in favor of Administrative Agent), in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent, as Administrative Agent may reasonably request in writing. Each Borrower further agrees, except with Administrative Agent’s prior written consent, not to create, suffer or permit any release, abatement or reduction of the material obligations and duties of any such purchaser or any material right of any Borrower under any such purchase agreement, or excuse any material delay or failure of performance of any of the material obligations, terms, covenants, agreements, undertakings, representations, or warranties of such purchaser; or terminate, modify or amend such purchase agreement or in any manner release or discharge such purchaser from any material obligations, covenants, conditions, terms, undertakings, representations, warranties or agreements to be performed by such party under such purchase agreement.
(d)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, no Property released in accordance with this Section 9.31 shall include the rights of the applicable Borrower under or referred to in the applicable purchase agreement that survive the closing of such sale, including the rights of such Borrower with respect to (i) rents that are uncollected and attributable to the period prior to the close of escrow thereunder, (ii) any tax protest and tax refunds, (iii) any funds to which such Borrower is entitled on account of the release of bonds, deposits, letters of credit, set aside letters or similar items, and (iv) any sums to which such Borrower is entitled on account of any post-closing proration true-up adjustments, and the Lien

and rights of Administrative Agent upon and with respect to such rents, tax protest, tax refunds, funds and other sums shall continue in effect notwithstanding any release of the Security Instrument encumbering such Property. All of the foregoing sums, immediately upon receipt, shall be deposited into the Cash Sweep Collateral Account. Without limiting the foregoing, the provisions of this Section 9.31(d) shall apply, inter alia, to the Preston Commons Borrower following the release of the property previously encumbered by it, and released as collateral for the Loan, prior to the Eighth Modification Date.
(e)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, upon repayment, in full, of the outstanding principal balance of the Loan, all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, and all other amounts then due and payable under the terms of this Agreement, the Fee Letter (including the Exit Fee) or any of the other Loan Documents (the “Payoff”), then Borrowers shall be unconditionally and automatically released from any and all further liability under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (other than the obligation, if any, under Section 9.1 to indemnify Administrative Agent and Lenders with respect to any action, cause of action or other claim for any Indemnified Liability asserted against any Borrower in writing on or prior to the date of the Payoff), and Administrative Agent agrees to provide Borrowers, upon request, written evidence of such release concurrently with the Payoff; provided, however, the release of each Borrower’s obligations under the Environmental Agreement executed by such Borrower shall be subject to the provisions of Section 7 of such Environmental Agreement.
(f)The parties to this Agreement acknowledge and agree that, for purposes of all calculations of Ongoing Debt Service Coverage Ratio or Disbursement Debt Service Coverage Ratio for any purpose hereunder, including any calculations required to made on a pro forma basis, for any period of calculation during which any Property has been released or reconveyed from the lien of the applicable Security Instrument, items used in the calculation of Ongoing Debt Service Coverage Ratio or Disbursement Debt Service Coverage Ratio (in each case, whether income or expense) and capital expenditures attributable to such Property shall, to the extent not otherwise excluded in such items used in the calculation of Ongoing Debt Service Coverage Ratio or Disbursement Debt Service Coverage Ratio in accordance with GAAP or in accordance with any defined terms set forth in Exhibit “D”, be excluded as of the first day of the applicable period of calculation.
9.32Intentionally Omitted.
9.33Additional Representations.
(a)On each date on which a Swap Transaction is entered into, each Borrower will be deemed to represent to Administrative Agent and Lenders that such Borrower is a Qualified ECP Borrower (or if any Affiliate of any Borrower entered into such Swap Transaction, that each such Affiliate is a Qualified ECP Borrower (assuming for this purpose only that such Affiliate was a “Borrower” hereunder).
(b)On each date on which a Swap Transaction is entered into, each guarantor, if any, of any such Borrower’s (or any such Affiliate’s) Swap Obligations that are included as part of the indebtedness and/or obligations the payment and/or performance of which are guaranteed by such
Amended and Restated Loan Agreement
(Conformed through Eighth Modification)

103



guarantor is an “eligible contract participant,” as such term is defined in the Commodity Exchange Act.
9.34Co-Borrowers.
(a)Each Borrower agrees that it is jointly and severally liable to Administrative Agent and Lenders for the payment or performance of all Obligations, and that such liability is independent of the obligations of the other Borrowers and shall be limited to an aggregate amount equal to the largest amount that would not render its obligations hereunder subject to avoidance as a fraudulent transfer or conveyance under Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or any comparable provisions of any similar federal or state law. Administrative Agent and Lenders may bring an action against any Borrower, whether an action is brought against the other Borrowers.
(b)Each Borrower agrees that any release which may be given by Administrative Agent or any Lender to any other Borrower will not release such Borrower from its obligations under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.
(c)Each Borrower waives any right to assert against Administrative Agent or any Lender any defense, setoff, counterclaim or claim that such Borrower may have against any other Borrower or any other party liable to Administrative Agent or any Lender for the obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.
(d)Each Borrower agrees that it is solely responsible for keeping itself informed as to the financial condition of the other Borrowers and of all circumstances which bear upon the risk of nonpayment. Each Borrower waives any right it may have to require Administrative Agent or any Lender to disclose to such Borrower any information that Administrative Agent or any Lender may now or hereafter acquire concerning the financial condition of the other Borrowers.
(e)Each Borrower waives all rights to notices of default or nonperformance by any other Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each Borrower further waives all rights to notices of the existence or the creation of new indebtedness by any other Borrower.
(f)Regardless of whether Administrative Agent or any Lender may have recovered any amounts owing under any of the Loan Documents against a Borrower, each hereby waives, to the extent permitted by applicable law: (i) all rights of subrogation, all rights of indemnity, and any other rights to collect reimbursement or contribution from any other Borrower or any other party for any recovery by Administrative Agent against such Borrower, whether contractual or arising by operation of law (including the United States Bankruptcy Code or any successor or similar statute) or otherwise (collectively, “Reimbursement Rights”), (ii) all rights to enforce any remedy that Administrative Agent or any Lender may have against any other Borrower, and (iii) all rights to participate in any security now or later to be held by Administrative Agent for the Obligations. To the extent a Borrower’s waiver of Reimbursement Rights is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be void or voidable for any reason, any Reimbursement Rights such Borrower may have against any other Borrower or any collateral or security shall be junior and subordinate to any rights Administrative Agent may have against such Borrower and to all right, title and interest Administrative Agent may have in any such collateral or security. If any amount
Amended and Restated Loan Agreement
(Conformed through Eighth Modification)

104



should be paid to a Borrower on account of any Reimbursement Rights at any time when any the Obligations have not been paid in full, such amount shall be held in trust for Administrative Agent and shall immediately be paid over to Administrative Agent to be credited and applied against the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The covenants and waivers of each Borrower set forth in this Section 9.33(f) shall be effective until all of the Obligations have been paid and performed in full and are made solely for the benefit of Administrative Agent and Lenders.
(g)Each Borrower waives any rights and defenses described in Section 2856(a) of the California Civil Code that are or may become available to such Borrower, including, without limitation, any rights and defenses by reason of Sections 2787 to 2855, inclusive, of the California Civil Code.
(h)Each Borrower waives all rights and defenses that such Borrower may have because any of the Obligations may be secured by real property other than the Property of such Borrower. This means, among other things:
(i)Administrative Agent or any Lender may collect from such Borrower (including enforcing against such Borrower the Security Instrument delivered by such Borrower) without first foreclosing on any real or personal property collateral pledged by any other Borrower;
(ii)If Administrative Agent forecloses on any real property collateral pledged by any Borrower:
(A)The amount of the Obligations may be reduced only by the price for which that collateral is sold at the foreclosure sale, even if the collateral is worth more than the sale price.
(B)Administrative Agent or any Lender may collect from such Borrower (including enforcing against such Borrower the Security Instrument delivered by such Borrower) even if Administrative Agent or any Lender, by foreclosing on the real property collateral pledged by any other Borrower, has destroyed any right a Borrower may have to collect from another Borrower.
This Section 9.33(h) is an unconditional and irrevocable waiver of any rights and defenses each Borrower may have because any of the Obligations may be secured by real property other than the Property hereby encumbered. These rights and defenses include, but are not limited to, any rights or defenses based upon Section 580a, 580b, 580d, or 726 of the California Code of Civil Procedure.
(i)Without limiting the generality of the foregoing Section 9.33(h), each Borrower understands and acknowledges that if Administrative Agent or any Lender forecloses judicially or nonjudicially against any real property securing any of the Obligations other than the Property of such Borrower, that foreclosure could impair or destroy any ability that such Borrower may have to seek reimbursement, contribution or indemnification from any other Borrower or others based
Amended and Restated Loan Agreement
(Conformed through Eighth Modification)

105



on any Reimbursement Right such Borrower may have for any recovery by Administrative Agent under the Security Instrument encumbering the Property of such Borrower. Each Borrower further understands and acknowledges that in the absence of this Section 9.33, such potential impairment or destruction of such Borrower’s rights, if any, may entitle such Borrower to assert a defense to such Borrower’s obligations under the Loan Documents to which such Borrower is a party based on Section 580d of the California Code of Civil Procedure as interpreted in Union Bank v. Gradsky, 265 Cal.App.2d 40 (1968). By executing this Agreement, each Borrower freely, irrevocably and unconditionally: (i) waives and relinquishes that defense and agrees that such Borrower will be fully liable under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which such Borrower is a party even though Administrative Agent or any Lender may foreclose judicially or nonjudicially against any real property security for the Obligations other than the Property of such Borrower; (ii) agrees that such Borrower will not assert that defense in any action or proceeding which Administrative Agent or any Lender may commence to enforce the Security Instrument encumbering the Property of such Borrower; (iii) acknowledges and agrees that the rights and defenses waived by such Borrower under this Agreement include any right or defense that such Borrower may have or be entitled to assert based upon or arising out of any one or more of Sections 580a, 580b, 580d or 726 of the California Code of Civil Procedure or Section 2848 of the California Civil Code; and (iv) acknowledges and agrees that Administrative Agent and each Lender is relying on this waiver in extending credit to Borrowers, and that this waiver is a material part of the consideration which Administrative Agent and each Lender is receiving for extending such credit to Borrowers.
(j)Each Borrower waives any right or defense it may have at law or equity, including California Code of Civil Procedure Section 580a, to a fair market value hearing or action to determine a deficiency judgment after a foreclosure of any property other than the Property of such Borrower.
(k)Until all obligations of Borrowers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents have been paid or otherwise performed in full, each Borrower waives any right of subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification and contribution (contractual, statutory or otherwise), including any claim or right of subrogation under the Bankruptcy Code or any successor statute, that such Borrower may now or hereafter have against any other Borrower with respect to the Obligations. Each Borrower waives any right to enforce any remedy which Administrative Agent or any Lender now has or may hereafter have against any other Borrower, and waives any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any security now or hereafter held by Administrative Agent or Lenders.
(l)Each Borrower hereby waives any election of remedies by Administrative Agent or any Lender that impairs any subrogation or other right of such Borrower to proceed against any other Borrower or other person, including any loss of rights resulting from any applicable anti deficiency laws relating to nonjudicial foreclosures of real property or other laws limiting, qualifying or discharging obligations or remedies.
