MASTER CREDIT FACILITY AGREEMENT

 

THIS MASTER CREDIT FACILITY AGREEMENT is made as of February 27, 2013 (the “Effective Date”), by and among (i) (a) the Borrowers identified on Schedule I attached hereto, (b) such Additional Borrowers as may from time to time become Borrowers under this Agreement (the entities described in (a) and (b), individually and collectively, “Borrower”); and (ii) FANNIE MAE, the body corporate duly organized under the Federal National Mortgage Association Charter Act, as amended, 12 U.S.C. §1716 et seq. and duly organized and existing under the laws of the United States (together with its successors and assigns, “Fannie Mae”).

 

RECITALS

 

A.                                    Certain of the Borrowers have executed that certain Amended and Restated Master Credit Facility Agreement dated December 2, 2010 (as amended, modified, restated or supplemented prior to the date hereof (collectively, the “Original Agreement”).  Pursuant to the Original Agreement, Fannie Mae is the holder of certain loans in the aggregate original principal amount of $1,652,985,405.00 (collectively, the “Loans”).

 

B.                                    As of the Effective Date, the Loans are secured by, among other things, the Initial Mortgaged Properties.

 

C.                                    As of the effectiveness of this Agreement, the outstanding principal balance under the Loans is $1,190,115,195.00.

 

D.                                    The Borrowers are the owners of the Initial Mortgaged Properties.

 

E.                                     As more particularly described in Exhibit A to this Agreement (unless otherwise defined or the context clearly indicates otherwise, capitalized terms shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in Appendix I of this Agreement), reference to “relevant” or “applicable” Loans, Mortgaged Properties or Loan Documents shall refer to the Loans made to a Collateral Pool Borrower, the Mortgaged Properties securing such Loans or the Loan Documents entered into by such Collateral Pool Borrower in respect of such Loans, respectively.  As set forth below, each Mortgaged Property is part of a Collateral Pool and each such Mortgaged Property in a Collateral Pool secures all Loans made with respect to such Collateral Pool.

 

F.                                      This Agreement amends and restates the Original Agreement in its entirety as it relates to the Loans.  As set forth below, the Mortgaged Properties identified on Exhibit A to this Agreement as part of “Collateral Pool 2” each secure one or more Loans made in respect of such Mortgaged Properties, and constitute Collateral Pool 2.  As set forth below, the Mortgaged Properties identified on Exhibit A to this Agreement as part of “Collateral Pool 6” each secure one or more Loans made in respect of such Mortgaged Properties, and constitute Collateral Pool 6.  Certain other loans outstanding pursuant to the Original Agreement (the “Other Loans”) are governed by a separate Master Credit Facility Agreement of even date herewith, which agreement amends and restates the Original Agreement in its entirety as it relates to the Other

 

1



 

Loans.  The Original Agreement is of no further force and effect.  For avoidance of doubt, there are no Collateral Pools 1, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8 or 9 that are covered by this Agreement.

 

G.                                    To secure the obligations of each Collateral Pool Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents executed in connection with the Loan made to such Borrower, such Collateral Pool Borrower pledged its respective Collateral to Fannie Mae.  Each Borrower’s Collateral is comprised of (i) Multifamily Residential Properties owned by Borrower or any Additional Borrower and (ii) any other collateral pledged to Fannie Mae from time to time by any Borrower, any Additional Borrower pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Documents.

 

H.                                   The Multifamily Residential Properties comprising the Collateral are grouped into two (2) Collateral Pools, as set forth on Exhibit A.  Each Collateral Pool Borrower is the obligor on the Note or Notes secured by the Mortgaged Properties comprising its related Collateral Pool and each such Loan is secured by a Security Instrument on the Mortgaged Property owned by such Collateral Pool Borrower.

 

I.                                        Each Loan, Note and Security Document related to the Mortgaged Properties comprising each Collateral Pool is cross-defaulted (i.e., a default under any Loan, Note, Security Document relating to each Mortgaged Property comprising Collateral Pool 2 (for example) under this Agreement, shall constitute a default under each Loan, Note and Security Document comprising Collateral Pool 2 (for example) and under this Agreement related to the Mortgaged Properties in such Collateral Pool) and cross-collateralized (i.e., each Security Instrument related to the Mortgaged Properties within Collateral Pool 6 (for example) shall secure all of Borrower’s obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents related to the Loan secured by the Mortgaged Properties within Collateral Pool 6 (for example)) to the other Notes and Security Documents related to the Mortgaged Properties in such Collateral Pool, and it is the intent of the parties to this Agreement that after an Event of Default, Fannie Mae may accelerate any Note related to such Collateral Pool without needing to accelerate any other Note and that in the exercise of its rights and remedies under the Loan Documents and the Guaranty, Fannie Mae may, except as provided in this Agreement, exercise and perfect any and all of its rights in and under the Loan Documents and the Guaranty with regard to any Mortgaged Property in such Collateral Pool without needing to exercise and perfect its rights and remedies with respect to any other Mortgaged Property in such Collateral Pool and that any such exercise shall be without regard to the Allocable Loan Amount assigned to such Mortgaged Property and that Fannie Mae may recover an amount equal to the full amount outstanding in respect of any of the Notes related to the Mortgaged Properties within a Collateral Pool, in connection with such exercise and any such amount shall be applied to the Obligations as determined by Fannie Mae in its sole and absolute discretion.

 

J.                                        In addition to the cross-default and cross-collateralization described in Recital I above, as set forth below, the Loan secured by Collateral Pool 2 is cross-defaulted, but not cross-collateralized, with Loan secured by Collateral Pool 6, and vice versa.

(D)                               The interest rate for the extended Loan shall be reset to a fixed rate of interest that reflects Fannie Mae’s then current market rate of interest for loans similar to the applicable Loan being extended pursuant to this Section 1.05(a)(ii) and having a 10-year term, plus the additional spread, as calculated by Fannie Mae, required to compensate Fannie Mae for the pair-off amount (based on the difference between (a) the existing interest rate on the Loan and (b) the then-current market rate for a loan with the same remaining term as the Loan (without giving effect to the Extension) on the date the Loan is extended) that would have been owing if the Loan had been paid on the closing date of the Extension.

 

(E)                                The Loan, as extended pursuant to this Section 1.05(a)(ii), shall be non-amortizing (interest only) from the effective date of the Extension through November 1, 2015 (in the case of an extension of the Loan secured by Collateral Pool 6) or November 1, 2017 (in the case of an extension of the Loan secured by Collateral Pool 2), and will then amortize based on a 30-year amortization schedule.

(A)                               In order to exercise the option set forth in this Section 1.05(a)(iii), the applicable Collateral Pool Borrower shall deliver notice of its intent to do so not later than the earlier of (1) ninety (90) days prior to the requested closing date for the Extension, or (2) June 1, 2013.

(C)                               Not later than September 1, 2013, the applicable Collateral Pool Borrower and Fannie Mae shall have negotiated, finalized and executed the applicable closing documents for the Extension, which documents, subject to the provisions of Section 1.05(c) below, shall conform in all respects to Fannie Mae’s then-current requirements (including MBS Requirements and other requirements regarding the form of loan documents for Loans similar to the applicable Loan, as extended pursuant to this Section 1.05(a)(iii)).

 

(D)                               The interest rate for the extended Loan shall not be reset, and shall equal the interest rate set forth in the Note evidencing the Loan secured by Collateral Pool 2 or the Loan secured by Collateral Pool 6, as applicable, on the Effective Date.

 

(E)                                Borrower may make extend the Loan secured by Collateral Pool 2 or the Loan secured by Collateral Pool 6 pursuant to this Section 1.05(a)(iii) with

 

7



 

respect to all or any portion of the Loan being extended pursuant to this Section 1.0-5(a)(iii).  If the applicable Collateral Pool Borrower makes a Request to extend a portion, but not all, of the Loan secured by Collateral Pool 2 or the Loan secured by Collateral Pool 6 pursuant to this Section 1.05(a)(iii), the Loan being extended shall be divided into two Loans and the applicable Collateral Pool shall be divided into two Collateral Pools, one such Collateral Pool (which will include the Mortgaged Properties from Collateral Pool 2 or Collateral Pool 6, as applicable that continue to secure the portion of the Loan that is not extended) being referred to herein as the “B Pool,” and the other Collateral Pool (which will include the balance of the Mortgaged Properties from Collateral Pool 2 or Collateral Pool 6, as applicable) being referred to herein as the “A Pool.”

 

(iv)                              The Loan secured by Collateral Pool 2 or the Loan secured by Collateral Pool 6 may be extended to November 1, 2016 (in the case of an extension of the Loan secured by Collateral Pool 6) or November 1, 2018 (in the case of an extension of the Loan secured by Collateral Pool 2) or, if the applicable Collateral Pool Borrower so elects, to November 1, 2017 (in the case of an extension of the Loan secured by Collateral Pool 6) or November 1, 2019 in the case of an extension of the Loan secured by Collateral Pool 2), subject to the following terms and conditions (which, solely in connection with an Extension pursuant to this Section 1.05(a)(iv), shall control over any inconsistent provision of this Agreement applicable to an Extension of such Loan):

 

(A)                               In order to exercise the option set forth in this Section 1.05(a)(iv), the applicable Collateral Pool Borrower shall deliver notice of its intent to do so not later than the earlier of (1) ninety (90) days prior to the requested closing date for the Extension, or (2) February 1, 2015 in the case of an extension of the Loan secured by Collateral Pool 6) or February 1, 2017 (in the case of an extension of the Loan secured by Collateral Pool 6).

 

(B)                               Not later than May 1, 2015 (in the case of an extension of the Loan secured by Collateral Pool 6) or May 1, 2017 (in the case of an extension of the Loan secured by Collateral Pool 2), the applicable Collateral Pool Borrower and Fannie Mae shall have negotiated, finalized and executed the applicable closing documents for the Extension, which documents:  (1) subject to the provisions of Section 1.05(c) below, shall conform in all respects to Fannie Mae’s then-current requirements (including MBS Requirements and other requirements regarding the form of loan documents for Loans similar to the applicable Loan, as extended pursuant to this Section 1.05(a)(iv)); and (2) shall require that the applicable Loan, as extended pursuant to this Section 1.05(a)(iv), shall have an Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio not less than 1.25:1.0 and an Aggregate Loan to Value Ratio not in excess of seventy five percent (75%) as of August 1, 2015 (in the case of an extension of the Loan secured by Collateral Pool 6) or August 1, 2017 (in the case of an extension of the Loan secured by Collateral Pool 2), and shall require that the Loan does not meet the foregoing tests, then prior to November 1, 2015 (in the case of an extension of the Loan secured by Collateral Pool 6) or November 1, 2017 (in the case of an extension of the Loan secured by Collateral Pool 2) the applicable Collateral Pool Borrower must pay down the outstanding principal under the Loan (including with the payment of yield maintenance) and/or shall add additional Collateral

satisfactory to Fannie Mae and in accordance with the provisions of the applicable loan documents relating to the addition of collateral, so as to increase the Aggregate Debt Service Coverage to not less than 1.25:1.0 and/or decrease the Aggregate Loan to Value Ratio to no more than 75%.

 

(C)                               The Loan that is extended pursuant to this Section 1.05(a)(iv) shall be converted to a variable-rate loan with an interest rate determined based on the Extension period (one year or two years) and based on market conditions at the time of the Extension.

 

(b)                                 Except as expressly provided above in Section 1.05(a)(ii)(F) and in Section 1.05(a)(iii)(E), an Extension pursuant to this Section 1.05 must be made with respect to the full amount outstanding in respect of the Loan secured by Collateral Pool 2 or the Loan secured by Collateral Pool 6.  As a condition to any Extension of a portion of a Loan pursuant to Section 1.05(a)(ii) or Section 1.05(a)(iii), such that the applicable Collateral Pool is split into an A Pool and a B Pool as set forth above in Section 1.05(a)(ii)(F) or Section 1.05(a)(iii)(E), then Fannie Mae shall determine the Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio and the Aggregate Loan to Value Ratio, both (i) in the aggregate (i.e., without giving effect to the proposed splitting of the Loan and such Collateral Pool) and (ii) solely with respect to the B Pool and the portion of the Loan that will be secured by the B Pool after giving effect to the Extension.  As a condition to such Extension, Fannie Mae must determine that the Extension will not cause (i) an increase in the Aggregate Loan to Value Ratio of the portion of the Loan secured by the B Pool as compared to the Aggregate Loan to Value Ratio of the applicable Loan, in the aggregate, prior to the Extension; and (ii) will not cause a decrease in the Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio of the portion of the Loan secured by the B Pool as compared to the Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio of the applicable Collateral Pool, in the aggregate, prior to the Extension.

 

(c)                                  Any Loan extended pursuant to this Section 1.05 will be converted to an MBS, will be removed from this Agreement and will be governed by a new Master Credit Facility Agreement and related loan documentation, on Fannie Mae’s then-current standard form MBS loan documentation for loans of the same type as the Loan that is extended; provided, however, that (i) the provisions of such loan documentation will be modified to be substantially consistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the Guaranty pertaining to such matters as insurance, reporting requirements and thresholds for lender control over insurance disputes and condemnation proceedings; (ii) the provisions of such loan documentation relating to substitution, release and addition of collateral will be modified to be substantially consistent with the analogous terms and provisions in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the Guaranty; (iii) any guaranty of such extended loan shall guaranty only the same type of obligations as are guaranteed under the guaranty currently in effect for the Loans; (iv) the transfer provisions of such loan documentation shall be modified to be substantially consistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the Guaranty relating to transfers; (v) Fannie Mae and Borrower will attempt in good faith to reach an agreement regarding any modifications requested by the applicable Collateral Pool Borrower relating to other matters; and (vi) except as set forth in clause (i) and clause (iv) of this sentence, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, all provisions of such

 

9



 

amended and restated loan documentation shall be consistent with Fannie Mae’s requirements relating to mortgaged-backed securities issuance, disclosure and tax matters.

 

(d)                                 If the applicable Collateral Pool Borrower and Fannie Mae so agree, each in its sole discretion, an Extension of the Loan secured by Collateral Pool 2 or the Loan secured by Collateral Pool 6 may be effected by a combination of the alternatives set forth in Sections 1.05(a)(i) through (a)(iv).

For so long as Fannie Mae (or any successor thereto by merger, reorganization, combination or other corporate or organizational restructuring or otherwise created by legislation or applicable regulation (“FNMA Successor”)) owns and holds an interest in the Loans, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary, any extension of a Loan pursuant to Section 1.05 shall be subject to the precondition that Fannie Mae (or FNMA Successor) is generally offering to purchase in the marketplace loans of the execution type requested by Borrower at the time of the Request for such extension or conversion and on the closing date of such extension or conversion.  In the event Fannie Mae (or FNMA Successor) is not purchasing loans of the execution type requested by Borrower at the time of the Request for such extension or conversion and on the closing date of such extension or conversion, Fannie Mae (or FNMA Successor) agrees to offer alternative loan executions based on the types of executions Fannie Mae (or FNMA Successor) is generally offering to purchase, with respect to loans secured by similar property type, in the marketplace at that time, and such executions shall not require (i) an Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio greater than the Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio set forth in Section 1.05, or (ii) an increase in the Re-Underwriting Fee payable pursuant to Section 8.01.  Any alternative execution offered would be subject to mutually agreeable documentation necessary to implement the terms and conditions of such alternative execution.

BREAKAGE AND ALLOCATED LOAN AMOUNTS

 

Section 2.01.                                       [RESERVED].

 

Section 2.02.                                       Breakage and other Costs.

 

If, in connection with an Extension pursuant to Section 1.05, Servicer obtains a commitment from Fannie Mae’s trading desk for a Loan with respect to which Borrower has made a Request for Extension pursuant to Section 1.05 (a “Fannie Mae Commitment”), and if

 

10



 

the Servicer fails to fulfill such Fannie Mae Commitment because the Loan is not made (for a reason other than Servicer’s or Fannie Mae’s default), the applicable Collateral Pool Borrower shall pay all reasonable out-of-pocket costs (including attorneys’ fees and costs), fees and damages incurred by Servicer or Fannie Mae in connection with its failure to fulfill the Fannie Mae Commitment.  Fannie Mae reserves the right to require the applicable Collateral Pool Borrower to post a deposit at the time the Fannie Mae Commitment is obtained.  Such deposit shall be refunded to the applicable Collateral Pool Borrower upon the closing of the Extension.

 

Section 2.03.                                       Reserved.

 

Section 2.04.                                       Determination of Allocable Loan Amount and Valuations.

 

(a)                                 Initial Determinations.  On the Effective Date, Fannie Mae has determined (i) the Allocable Loan Amount and Valuation for each Initial Mortgaged Property (each of which are set forth on Exhibit A hereto), (ii) the Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio and the Aggregate Loan to Value Ratio for each Collateral Pool, and (iii) the Loan Amount supported by such Collateral Pool.  The determinations made in clause (a) as of the Effective Date shall remain unchanged until a Collateral Event occurs under such Collateral Pool.  Changes in Allocable Loan Amount, Valuations, the Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio and the Aggregate Loan to Value Ratio shall be made pursuant to Section 2.04(b).

 

(b)                                 Monitoring Determinations.  Once each Calendar Quarter or, if a Collateral Pool consists only of Fixed Loans that have an Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio equal to or greater than 1.25:1.0, once each Calendar Year, within twenty (20) Business Days after Borrower has delivered to Fannie Mae the reports required in Section 6.03, Fannie Mae shall determine the Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio and the Aggregate Loan to Value Ratio for such Collateral Pool, and whether Borrower is in compliance with the other covenants set forth in the Loan Documents and the Guaranty.  After a Collateral Event with respect to the relevant Collateral Pool, Fannie Mae shall redetermine Allocable Loan Amounts and Valuations for such Collateral Pool.  Fannie Mae shall determine Cap Rates when determining Valuations in its sole and absolute discretion on the basis of its internal survey and analysis of Cap Rates for comparable sales in the vicinity of the Mortgaged Property, with such adjustments as Fannie Mae deems appropriate and shall not be obligated to use any information provided by Borrower.  Fannie Mae shall promptly disclose its determinations to the applicable Collateral Pool Borrower.  Until redetermined, the Allocable Loan Amounts and Valuations determined by Fannie Mae shall remain in effect.  In performing a Valuation of a Multifamily Residential Property to be added to any Collateral Pool as part of a Substitution, Fannie Mae shall be entitled to obtain an Appraisal, and the Valuation will be based on such Appraisal.  Fannie Mae shall also have the right to obtain an Appraisal or a Cap Rate study conducted by an appraiser in connection with the redetermination of a Valuation of a Mortgaged Property if Fannie Mae is unable to determine a Cap Rate for such Mortgaged Property.

 

(c)                                  If a Collateral Pool Borrower disagrees with Fannie Mae’s Valuation of any Mortgaged Property that is part of such Collateral Pool, such Borrower shall have the right to substitute for the Cap Rate determined by Fannie Mae or Appraisal obtained by Fannie Mae, as applicable, a new Cap Rate based on a capitalization rate study conducted by an appraiser or a

 

11



 

new Appraisal, as applicable, provided such Borrower gives notice to Fannie Mae of its desire to substitute a new Cap Rate or a new Appraisal, as applicable, for Fannie Mae’s Cap Rate or Appraisal, as applicable, within fifteen (15) Business Days after such Borrower receives Fannie Mae’s determinations.

 

(i)                                     In the event the applicable Collateral Pool Borrower has requested a new Cap Rate, the applicable Collateral Pool Borrower and Fannie Mae shall determine the Cap Rate in accordance with the following procedure:

 

(A)                               Fannie Mae shall give such Collateral Pool Borrower a list of approved appraisers for the local market in which the Multifamily Residential Property is located within ten (10) Business Days after the date on which such Borrower gives Fannie Mae its notice;

 

(B)                               The relevant Collateral Pool Borrower shall select an appraiser within ten (10) Business Days after the date on which Fannie Mae gives such Collateral Pool Borrower the list of Fannie Mae-approved appraisers;

 

(C)                               Fannie Mae shall engage the appraiser selected by Collateral Pool Borrower pursuant to clause (i)(B) to perform the Cap Rate study within ten (10) Business Days after the date on which such Borrower makes its selection; and

 

(D)                               Such Collateral Pool Borrower shall pay all reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses of obtaining the Cap Rate study, whether incurred by such Collateral Pool Borrower or Fannie Mae.

 

(ii)                                  In the event the applicable Collateral Pool Borrower has requested a new Appraisal, the applicable Collateral Pool Borrower and Fannie Mae shall obtain the new Appraisal in accordance with the following procedure:

 

(A)                               Fannie Mae shall give such Collateral Pool Borrower a list of approved appraisers for the local market in which the relevant Multifamily Residential Property is located within ten (10) Business Days after the date on which such Collateral Pool Borrower gives Fannie Mae its notice;

 

(B)                               The relevant Collateral Pool Borrower shall select an appraiser from the list of approved Appraisers delivered by Fannie Mae to Borrower within ten (10) Business Days after the date on which Fannie Mae gives such Collateral Pool Borrower the list of Fannie Mae-approved appraisers;

 

(C)                               Fannie Mae shall engage the appraiser selected by Collateral Pool Borrower pursuant to clause (ii)(B) above to perform the Appraisal study within ten (10) Business Days after the date on which such Collateral Pool Borrower makes its selection; and

 

12



 

(D)                               Such Collateral Pool Borrower shall pay all reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses of obtaining the Appraisal, whether incurred by such Collateral Pool Borrower or Fannie Mae.

 

(iii)                               If the applicable Collateral Pool Borrower elects to substitute a new Cap Rate for Fannie Mae’s Rate or a new Appraisal, the new Cap Rate or appraised value, as applicable, shall be used to determine the Valuation for the Mortgaged Property and, until the earlier of (1) the thirtieth (30th) day after the date on which the appraiser is engaged by Fannie Mae or (2) the date on which the new Cap Rate is determined, the Valuation of the Mortgaged Property in effect immediately prior to Fannie Mae’s Valuation shall continue to be in effect.  In the event the new Cap Rate or Appraisal is not determined or delivered on or before the thirtieth (30th) day after which the appraiser is engaged by Fannie Mae, then commencing on such thirtieth (30th) day and continuing until the new Cap Rate is determined or the new Appraisal is delivered, the Valuation based on Fannie Mae’s determination of the Cap Rate or Appraisal, as applicable, shall be in effect.

 

(iv)                              Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no change in Allocable Loan Amounts, Valuations, the Aggregate Loan to Value Ratio or the Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio shall (i) result in a Potential Event of Default or Event of Default under such Collateral Pool, (ii) require the prepayment of any Loans under such Collateral Pool, or (iii) require the addition of Collateral to such Collateral Pool.

 

ARTICLE 3
COLLATERAL CHANGES

 

Section 3.01.                                       Right to Obtain Releases of Collateral.

 

Subject to the terms and conditions of this Article 3, Collateral Pool Borrower shall have the right from time to time to obtain a release of Collateral (a “Release”) from the respective Collateral Pool.

 

Section 3.02.                                       Procedure for Obtaining Releases of Collateral.

 

(a)                                 Request.  To obtain a release of Collateral from a Collateral Pool, the applicable Collateral Pool Borrower shall deliver a Release Request to Fannie Mae.

 

(b)                                 Closing.  If all conditions precedent contained in Section 4.04 and all General Conditions contained in Section 4.01 are satisfied, Fannie Mae shall cause the Release Mortgaged Property to be released, at a closing to be held at offices designated by Fannie Mae and reasonably acceptable to the applicable Collateral Pool Borrower on a Closing Date proposed by such Borrower and approved by Fannie Mae, and occurring (A) in the case of a Collateral Pool with ten (10) or less Mortgaged Properties, within thirty (30) days after Fannie Mae’s receipt of the Release Request and any other information required by Fannie Mae (or on such other date as such Borrower and Fannie Mae may agree), and (B) in the case of a Collateral Pool with more than ten (10) Mortgaged Properties, within sixty (60) days after Fannie Mae’s receipt of the Release Request and any other information required by Fannie Mae (or on such

 

13



 

other date as such Borrower and Fannie Mae may agree), by executing and delivering, and causing all applicable parties to execute and deliver, all at the sole cost and expense of Borrower, the Release Documents.  Unless otherwise instructed by Fannie Mae, the applicable Collateral Pool Borrower, shall prepare the documents pertaining to the release of the Security Instrument and submit them to Fannie Mae for its review.

 

(c)                                  Release Price.

 

(i)                                     The “Release Price” for each Release Mortgaged Property means the greater of (A) the Allocable Loan Amount for such Release Mortgaged Property and (B) one hundred percent (100%) of the amount, if any, of the Loans Outstanding that are required to be repaid by the applicable Collateral Pool Borrower to Fannie Mae in connection with the proposed release of the Release Mortgaged Property from such Collateral Pool so that, immediately after the Release, the Coverage and LTV Tests for the Collateral Pool will be satisfied.

 

(ii)                                  In the event the proposed Release is of a Mortgaged Property that is in a Collateral Pool that secures a Fixed Loan and the Coverage and LTV Tests for the applicable Collateral Pool are not satisfied after the Release of the Release Mortgaged Property, but the Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio of such Collateral Pool is not less than the required Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio set forth in clause (2)(a) of the definition of Coverage and LTV Tests for such Collateral Pool in effect on the Closing Date of the proposed Release minus 0.05 (for example, if the required Aggregate Debt Service Coverage set forth in clause (2)(a) of the definition of Coverage and LTV Tests for the relevant Collateral Pool on the Closing Date of the proposed Release is 1.1:1.0, the Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio of such Collateral Pool on the Closing Date of the proposed Release may not be less than 1.05:1.0), the applicable Collateral Pool Borrower may deposit with Fannie Mae cash or a Letter of Credit (in accordance with the terms of Section 4.08 of this Agreement) in an amount equal to the sum of the amount determined pursuant to clause (c)(i)(B) in this subsection above minus the amount determined pursuant to clause (c)(i)(A) in this subsection above subject to the provisions of Section 3.02(c)(iii) below (the “Shortfall Deposit”).  In no event shall Borrower pay down less than the Allocable Loan Amount for such Release Mortgaged Property on the Closing Date of such Release.  In addition to the Release Price, the applicable Collateral Pool Borrower shall pay to Fannie Mae all associated prepayment premiums, accrued interest and other amounts due under the Notes evidencing the Loans being repaid.

 

The Shortfall Deposit shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:

 

(A)                               Such Collateral Pool Borrower shall deposit either (1) cash and/or Permitted Investments or (2) a Letter of Credit, not both.

 

(B)                               In the event such Collateral Pool Borrower deposits cash and/or Permitted Investments with Fannie Mae as the Shortfall Deposit, the amount of the Shortfall Deposit shall not exceed fifteen percent (15%) of the principal balance of the Loans Outstanding under such Collateral Pool calculated after the release of the Release Mortgaged Property.  If the Shortfall Deposit would otherwise exceed fifteen percent

 

14



 

(15%) of the balance of the Loans Outstanding under such Collateral Pool calculated after the release of the Release Mortgaged Property, then as a condition to making the Shortfall Deposit in the form of cash and/or Permitted Investments, the applicable Collateral Pool Borrower shall make a payment to Fannie Mae to be applied to the principal balance of the Loans Outstanding, such that, after giving effect to such payment, Section 3.02(c)(ii) shall not require a Shortfall Deposit in excess of fifteen percent (15%) of the principal balance of the Loans Outstanding under such Collateral Pool calculated after the release of the Release Mortgaged Property.  Permitted Investments deposited to satisfy the Shortfall Deposit requirements shall, in the case of cash or other Permitted Investments in which Fannie Mae’s security interest is perfected by possession, be deposited by Fannie Mae into an account maintained by Fannie Mae in accordance with Fannie Mae’s requirements for similar accounts (the “Shortfall Deposit Account”) and, in the case of other Permitted Investments, pledged to Fannie Mae pursuant to a pledge agreement, in form and substance acceptable to Fannie Mae. All interest and other earnings accruing on any cash or Permitted Investments shall remain in the Shortfall Deposit Account and shall be subject to this Agreement, provided that all such interest and other earnings shall be credited to the applicable Collateral Pool Borrower.  Cash shall be held in an institution (which may be Fannie Mae, if Fannie Mae is such an institution) whose deposits or accounts are insured or guaranteed by a federal agency.  The Fannie Mae shall not be obligated to open additional accounts or deposit Imposition Deposits in additional institutions when the amount of the Imposition Deposits exceeds the maximum amount of the federal deposit insurance or guaranty.  Fannie Mae shall not guaranty the rate of return or rate of interest on any cash held as part of the Shortfall Deposit.

 

(C)                               In the event such Collateral Pool Borrower posts a Letter of Credit pursuant to the terms of Section 4.08 of this Agreement as the Shortfall Deposit, the value of the Shortfall Deposit shall not exceed ten percent (10%) of the principal balance of the Loans Outstanding under such Collateral Pool calculated after the release of the Release Mortgaged Property.  If the Shortfall Deposit would otherwise exceed ten percent (10%) of the balance of the Loans Outstanding under such Collateral Pool calculated after the release of the Release Mortgaged Property, then as a condition to making the Shortfall Deposit in the form of a Letter of Credit, the applicable Collateral Pool Borrower shall make a payment to Fannie Mae to be applied to the principal balance of the Loans Outstanding,  such that, after giving effect to such payment, Section 3.02(c)(ii) shall not require a Shortfall Deposit in excess of ten percent (10%) of the principal balance of the Loans Outstanding under such Collateral Pool calculated after the release of the Release Mortgaged Property.

 

(D)                               The Shortfall Deposit (including any interest and other earnings accruing on any Permitted Investments in the Shortfall Deposit Account) shall be disbursed to the applicable Collateral Pool Borrower upon the earliest of (1) payment of all Obligations of such Collateral Pool Borrower under the Loan Documents, (2) the date the applicable Collateral Pool satisfies the Coverage and LTV Tests for such Collateral Pool, and (3) upon compliance with the next sentence, the date one hundred eighty (180) days after the Closing Date of the Release Request.   If on the date one

 

15



 

hundred eighty (180) days after the Closing Date of the Release Request the Coverage and LTV Tests for such Collateral Pool in effect as of the Closing Date of the Release Request are not satisfied, the applicable Collateral Pool Borrower shall pay down the Loans Outstanding under such Collateral Pool such that the Coverage and LTV Tests are satisfied.

 

(iii)                               In the event the proposed Release of a Mortgaged Property is in connection with the anticipated sale of such Mortgaged Property to a third party in an arm’s length transaction, and the anticipated sale proceeds are less than the Release Price that would be calculated pursuant to the terms of either Section 3.02(c)(i) or Section 3.02(c)(ii) (if applicable), provided that the Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio of such Collateral Pool after the Release is not less than the Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio for such Collateral Pool in effect immediately prior to the Release, the Release Price shall be the sum of (A) one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Allocable Loan Amount for such Release Mortgaged Property plus (B) seventy-five percent (75%) of the Remaining Net Sale Proceeds.  As used herein, “Remaining Net Sale Proceeds” shall mean the sale price of the Release Mortgaged Property less one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Allocable Loan Amount for such Release Mortgaged Property less reasonable customary closing costs in connection with the sale as determined by Fannie Mae, including, without limitation, tax indemnity or tax protection payments in an amount not to exceed $1,500,000 per Release Mortgaged Property (unless a greater amount is approved by Fannie Mae).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Net Operating Income for the Trailing 12 Month Period for the applicable Collateral Pool results in an Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio of 1.10:1.0 or greater, the percentage of Remaining Net Sale Proceeds referenced in this subclause (iii) above shall be reduced to twenty-five percent (25%).  For purposes of determining Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio in connection with the calculations set forth in this Section 3.02, Debt Service Coverage Ratio shall be calculated after taking into account the payment of one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Allocable Loan Amount for such Release Mortgaged Property.

 

(iv)                              Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3.02, the requirements set forth in Section 3.02(c)(i), Section 3.02(c)(ii) or Section 3.02(c)(iii) may be waived temporarily by Fannie Mae in its sole discretion, if neither the Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio will be reduced nor the Aggregate Loan to Value Ratio for such Collateral Pool will be increased as a result of such proposed Release, with such waiver based on factors that are not in conflict with Fannie Mae’s Underwriting Requirements, including but not limited to the then current Valuation of the Mortgaged Properties in such Collateral Pool, the then current Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio of such Collateral Pool, the then current Aggregate Loan to Value Ratio of such Collateral Pool, the strength of the Guarantor, the quality of the market where the remaining Mortgaged Properties are located, and the geographic distribution of the Mortgaged Properties in such Collateral Pool at that time.  In connection with a release pursuant to this Section 3.02(c)(iv) only, the applicable Collateral Pool Borrower shall otherwise comply with the terms of Section 3.02(c)(i), Section 3.02(c)(ii), and Section 3.02(c)(iii), including depositing any Shortfall Deposit.

 

16



 

(d)                                 Application of Release Price.

 

(i)                                     The Release Price for the Release Mortgaged Property shall be applied against the Outstanding Loans in the applicable Collateral Pool Borrower’s discretion, provided that (A) any Outstanding Loan which Borrower elects to prepay must be prepaid in full, or if the Release Price is not sufficient to do so, must be the only Loan partially prepaid; (B) any prepayment of such Loan is permitted (for example, not subject to a lock out period) under the applicable Note, (C) any prepayment premium due and owing is paid, and (D) interest must be paid through the end of the month.

 

(ii)                                  In the event no Loan may be prepaid under the terms of the applicable Note, the remainder of the Release Price, if any, shall be held by Fannie Mae (or its appointed collateral agent) in an interest-bearing account designated by Fannie Mae for the benefit of the applicable Collateral Pool Borrower (provided that Fannie Mae shall not guaranty any rate of interest to such Borrower) as substitute Collateral (collectively, with any interest thereon, “Substitute Cash Collateral”), in accordance with a security agreement (if required by Fannie Mae) and other documents in form and substance acceptable to Fannie Mae.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the release of the Release Mortgaged Property may not be approved unless the aggregate Valuation of all Mortgaged Properties remaining in such Collateral Pool is greater than Outstanding Loans under such Collateral Pool.  Any Substitute Cash Collateral remaining will be returned to the applicable Collateral Pool Borrower on the date all Loans made to such Collateral Pool Borrower are repaid in full, or after an event that brings such Collateral Pool back into compliance with the Coverage and LTV Tests for such Collateral Pool.

 

Section 3.03.                                       Substitutions.

 

(a)                                 Right to Substitute Collateral.  Subject to the terms, conditions and limitations of Article 3 and Article 4 from time to time prior to the date that is twelve (12) months prior to the Pool Termination Date, Borrower shall have the right to obtain the release of one or more Release Mortgaged Properties from the relevant Collateral Pool (including the Release of a Mortgaged Property that is simultaneously added to another Collateral Pool) by replacing such Release Mortgaged Property with one or more Multifamily Residential Properties  (including a Mortgaged Property that has simultaneously been released from another Collateral Pool) that meet the requirements of this Agreement (the “Substitute Mortgaged Property”) thereby effecting a “Substitution” of Collateral.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, there shall be no limitation on the number of Substitutions that may be effected within the first twelve (12) months following the Effective Date of this Agreement.

 

(b)                                 Request.  Borrower shall deliver to Fannie Mae a completed and executed Substitution Request.  Each Substitution Request shall be accompanied by the following:  (i) the information required by the Underwriting Requirements with respect to the proposed Substitute Mortgaged Property and any additional information Fannie Mae reasonably requests; and (ii) the payment of all Additional Due Diligence Fees.

(c)                                  Underwriting.

 

(i)                                     (A)  A Collateral Pool Borrower may release one or more Release Mortgaged Properties from a Collateral Pool and request the addition of one or more Substitute Mortgaged Properties to such Collateral Pool provided that each Substitute Mortgaged Property is in a comparable (or better) market as and of equivalent quality (or better) to the Release Mortgaged Property, and provided further that after such Substitution, the applicable Coverage and LTV Tests for the relevant Collateral Pool are satisfied, and (i) the Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio with respect to the relevant Collateral Pool equals or exceeds the Aggregate  Debt Service Coverage Ratio of the relevant Collateral Pool immediately prior to such proposed Substitution, and (ii) the Aggregate Loan to Value Ratio with respect to the relevant Collateral Pool is equal to or less than the Aggregate Loan to Value Ratio of the relevant Collateral Pool immediately prior to such proposed Substitution; provided that in connection with a Collateral Pool which contains only one (1) Mortgaged Property, in the event that more than one (1) Substitute Mortgaged Property is added in replacement of a single Mortgaged Property, each such Substitute Mortgaged Property shall secure the Loan and shall be cross-collateralized and cross-defaulted within such Collateral Pool.

 

(A)                               In the event that the Coverage and LTV Tests for the applicable Collateral Pool are not satisfied after the Substitution, but the Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio of such Collateral Pool immediately after the Substitution is not less than the higher of (i) the required Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio as set forth in clause (2)(a) of the definition of Coverage and LTV Tests for such Collateral Pool in effect on the Closing Date of the proposed Substitution and (ii) the Debt Service Coverage Ratio of the Collateral Pool immediately prior to such proposed Substitution, minus 0.05 (for example, if the required Aggregate Debt Service Coverage as set forth in clause (2)(a) of the definition of Coverage and LTV Tests for the relevant Collateral Pool on the Closing Date of the proposed Substitution is 1.1:1.0 and the Debt Service Coverage Ratio of the relevant Collateral Pool immediately prior to the proposed Substitution is 1.08:1.0, the Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio of such Collateral Pool on the Closing Date of the proposed Substitution may not be less than 1.05:1.0), the applicable Collateral Pool Borrower may deposit with Fannie Mae a Shortfall Deposit pursuant to the terms of Section 3.02(c) of this Agreement in an amount equal to the Loans Outstanding that are required to be repaid by the applicable Collateral Pool Borrower so that the applicable Aggregate Debt Service Coverage as set forth in clause (2)(a) of the definition of Coverage and LTV Tests for the relevant Collateral Pool will be satisfied.  In connection with a Substitution completed pursuant to this Section 3.03(c)(i)(B), all provisions in Section 3.02(c)(ii) pertaining to Shortfall Deposits shall apply.

 

(B)                               Notwithstanding the foregoing requirements in paragraphs (A) and (B) above to the contrary, a Collateral Pool Borrower may release one or more Release Mortgaged Properties from a Collateral Pool and request the addition of one or more Substitute Mortgaged Properties to such Collateral Pool provided that such Substitute Mortgaged Property is in a comparable (or better) market as and of equivalent quality (or better) to the Release Mortgaged Property, and provided further that in connection with any Collateral Pool with multiple Mortgaged Properties after such Substitution, that the Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio of such Collateral Pool is

 

18



 

greater than the Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio of such Collateral Pool prior to the Substitution.

 

(C)                               Notwithstanding the foregoing requirements in paragraphs (A) and (B) above to the contrary, the requirement that the Coverage and LTV Tests or the Debt Service Coverage Ratio of the Collateral Pool immediately prior to such proposed Substitution, as applicable, be satisfied (or that the Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio not be reduced by more than 0.05:1.0 from the required Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio as set forth in clause (2)(a) of the definition of Coverage and LTV Tests in effect on the Closing Date of the proposed Substitution) after the addition of a proposed Substitute Mortgaged Property may be waived temporarily by Fannie Mae in its sole discretion, if neither the Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio will be reduced nor the Aggregate Loan to Value Ratio for such Collateral Pool will be increased as a result of such proposed Substitution, based on factors that are not in conflict with Fannie Mae’s Underwriting Requirements, including but not limited to the then current Valuation of the Mortgaged Properties in such Collateral Pool, the then current Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio of such Collateral Pool, the then current Aggregate Loan to Value Ratio or such Collateral Pool, the strength of the Guarantor, the quality of the market where the proposed Substituted Mortgaged Property is located, the quality of any proposed additional Collateral, and the geographic distribution of the Mortgaged Properties in such Collateral Pool at that time.  In connection with a Substitution completed pursuant to this Section 3.03(c)(i)(D), Borrower shall provide a Shortfall Deposit and otherwise comply with the provisions of Section 3.02(c)(ii).

 

(ii)                                  Fannie Mae shall evaluate the proposed Substitute Mortgaged Property in accordance with the Underwriting Requirements, including an exit analysis performed by Fannie Mae, and shall make underwriting determinations as to the Debt Service Coverage Ratio and the Loan to Value Ratio of the proposed Substitute Mortgaged Property and the Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio and the Aggregate Loan to Value Ratio for the applicable Collateral Pool on the basis of the lesser of (A) the acquisition price of the proposed Substitute Mortgaged Property if purchased by Borrower within twelve (12) months of the related Substitution Request, and (B) a Valuation made with respect to the proposed Substitute Mortgaged Property.  Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.04 regarding the recalculation of Valuations and the calculation of Debt Service Coverage Ratios, for purposes of reviewing proposed Substitute Mortgaged Properties, if Fannie Mae reasonably determines market conditions have changed in a manner adversely affecting any of the Mortgaged Properties since the determination of the then effective Aggregate Loan to Value Ratio for such Collateral Pool and Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio for such Collateral Pool, Fannie Mae may make new determinations of Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio and Aggregate Loan to Value Ratio for purposes of determining whether to permit the addition of the proposed Substitute Mortgaged Property to such Collateral Pool, which determination shall not modify the Coverage and LTV Tests.  Borrower shall promptly provide any information reasonably required by Fannie Mae to make the determination permitted by the preceding sentence.

 

(iii)                               Within (A) in the case of a Collateral Pool with ten (10) or fewer Mortgaged Properties, thirty (30) days, or (B) in the case of a Collateral Pool with more than ten

 

19



 

(10) Mortgaged Properties, sixty (60) days in each case after receipt of (1) the Substitution Request and (2) all reports, certificates and documents required by the Underwriting Requirements, Fannie Mae shall notify Borrower whether it has determined whether the proposed Substitute Mortgaged Property meets the conditions for addition set forth in this Agreement.  Within five (5) Business Days after receipt of Fannie Mae’s written consent to the Substitution Request, Borrower shall notify Fannie Mae in writing whether it elects to add the proposed Substitute Mortgaged Property to such Collateral Pool.  If Borrower fails to respond within the period of five (5) Business Days, it shall be conclusively deemed to have elected not to add the proposed Substitute Mortgaged Property to such Collateral Pool.

 

(d)                                 Closing.  If, pursuant to this Section 3.03, Fannie Mae determines that the conditions set forth herein for the Substitution of the proposed Substitute Mortgaged Property into the applicable Collateral Pool in replacement of the proposed Release Mortgaged Property, and the applicable Collateral Pool Borrower timely elects to cause such Substitution to occur and all conditions contained in this Section 3.03 and the applicable sections of Article 4, to the extent Fannie Mae determines such Sections are applicable, are satisfied, then the proposed Substitute Mortgaged Property shall be substituted into such Collateral Pool in replacement of the proposed Release Mortgaged Property, at a closing to be held at offices designated by Fannie Mae and reasonably acceptable to the applicable Collateral Pool Borrower on a Closing Date proposed by such Borrower and approved by Fannie Mae, and occurring —

 

(i)                                     if the Substitution of the proposed Substitute Mortgaged Property is to occur simultaneously with the release of the proposed Release Mortgaged Property, within thirty (30) days after Fannie Mae’s receipt of the applicable Collateral Pool Borrower’s election (or on such other date to which the applicable Collateral Pool Borrower and Fannie Mae may agree); or

 

(ii)                                  if the Substitution of a proposed Substitute Mortgaged Property is to occur subsequent to the release of the Release Mortgaged Property, within ninety (90) days after the release of the Release Mortgaged Property (the “Property Delivery Deadline”), provided that such Property Delivery Deadline may be extended by one (1) additional ninety (90) day period in the event the applicable Collateral Pool Borrower provides evidence to Fannie Mae’s satisfaction that it is diligently pursuing a 1031 exchange with respect to the proposed Substitute Mortgaged Property in accordance with the terms of this Section 3.03(d), provided that, on a case by case basis, Fannie Mae may consent in its sole discretion to extend the Property Delivery Deadline by one (1) additional ninety (90) day period (for a total of one hundred eighty (180) days if the applicable Collateral Pool Borrower is diligently pursuing the acquisition of a proposed Substitute Mortgaged Property that is not in connection with a 1031 exchange.

 

(e)                                  Substitution Deposit.

 

(i)                                     The Deposit.                            If the addition of a proposed Substitute Mortgaged Property is to occur subsequent to the release of the Release Mortgaged Property pursuant to Section 3.03(d), at the Closing Date of the release of the Release Mortgaged Property, Borrower (or in the case of a Collateral Pool with only one (1) Mortgaged Property prior to the release,

 

20



 

Guarantor) shall deposit with Fannie Mae the “Substitution Deposit” described in Section 3.03(e)(ii) in the form of cash or, in lieu of (and/or in addition to) depositing cash for the Substitution Deposit, Borrower may post a Letter of Credit in accordance with the terms of Section 4.08 of this Agreement, having a face amount equal to the Substitution Deposit (or such lesser amount that has been deposited in cash).  In the event the Release Mortgaged Property is intended to be sold as part of a like-kind exchange permitted under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code, such Substitution Deposit shall be held by a qualified intermediary, provided such qualified intermediary enters into documents reasonably required by Fannie Mae assigning such Substitution Deposit to Fannie Mae, and providing that such qualified intermediary shall distribute the Substitution Deposit in accordance with this Agreement.  In the case of a Collateral Pool with only one (1) Mortgaged Property prior to the release, if the relevant Borrower is not able to remain as the obligor on the Note evidencing the related Loan, the relevant Borrower shall provide a replacement Borrower acceptable to Fannie Mae, which replacement Borrower shall join into the Note until the earlier of (A) such time that the Substitute Mortgaged Property is added to the Collateral Pool and the Additional Borrower owning such Substitute Mortgaged Property has joined into the Note and other related Collateral Pool Loan Documents and the Guaranty, and (B) the date the Note is paid in full together with all prepayment premiums due thereunder.

 

(ii)                                  Substitution Deposit Amount. The “Substitution Deposit” for each proposed Substitution shall be an amount equal to, for a Fixed Loan, the Release Price relating to such proposed Release Mortgaged Property; provided that in the event that the applicable Collateral Pool shall contain only one (1) Mortgaged Property after the completion of the Substitution, the Substitution Deposit shall be the sum of (A) all Outstanding Loans for such Collateral Pool, plus (B) any and all of the yield maintenance or prepayment premium for a Fixed Loan through the end of the month in which the Property Delivery Deadline occurs as if the Fixed Loan were to be prepaid in such month, plus (C) interest on the Fixed Loan through the end of the month in which the Property Delivery Deadline occurs.

 

(iii)                               Continued Payments on Outstanding Notes.  Such Collateral Pool Borrower shall also be obligated to make any regularly scheduled payments of principal and interest due under the applicable Note during any period between the closing of the Release Mortgaged Property and the earlier of the closing of the Substitute Mortgaged Property and the date of prepayment of the Note.

 

(iv)                              Failure to Close Substitution.  If the addition of the proposed Substitute Mortgaged Property does not occur by the Property Delivery Deadline in accordance with Section 3.03(d)(ii), then:

 

(A)                               such Collateral Pool Borrower shall have irrevocably waived its right to substitute such Release Mortgaged Property with a proposed Substitute Mortgaged Property, and the release of the Release Mortgaged Property shall be deemed to require a prepayment (or partial prepayment) of the portion of the Note equal to the Release Price relating to the Release Mortgaged Property, together with all yield maintenance, fee maintenance or prepayment premium then due in connection with such payment; and

 

21



 

(B)                               the applicable Collateral Pool Borrower shall comply with the requirements set forth in Section 3.02(d) not previously satisfied with respect to the Release Mortgaged Property, including payment of the Release Price.  Such Release Price, or the applicable portion thereof, shall be applied in the manner set forth in Section 3.02(d) and the Letter of Credit, if applicable, delivered by such Borrower pursuant to Section 3.03(e) and Section 4.08 of this Agreement shall be returned to Borrower.  However, if such Borrower fails to timely pay the Release Price, Fannie Mae may draw upon the Substitution Deposit in satisfaction of such obligation.

 

(v)                                 Substitution Deposit Disbursement.  At closing of the Substitution, Fannie Mae shall disburse the Substitution Deposit (including any interest accrued on such Substitution Deposit) directly to the applicable Collateral Pool Borrower at such time as the conditions precedent for the Substitution have been satisfied, which must occur no later than the Property Delivery Deadline.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the applicable Collateral Pool Borrower adds a Substitute Mortgaged Property to such Collateral Pool prior to the Property Delivery Deadline but the addition of such Substitute Mortgaged Property has not in and of itself satisfied the requirements to close the Substitution, the Substitution Deposit shall be reduced by the Allocable Loan Amount of such Substitute Mortgaged Property as determined by Fannie Mae, and such reduction in the Substitution Deposit shall be returned to the applicable Collateral Pool Borrower, or in the case of a Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit shall be reduced by such reduction in the Substitution Deposit.

 

(f)                                   Conditions Precedent to Substitutions.  The obligation of Fannie Mae to make a requested Substitution is subject to Fannie Mae’s determination that each of the conditions precedent set forth in Article 4 of this Agreement have been satisfied.

Within twenty (20) days after receipt of any such request, Fannie Mae shall approve or disapprove such request in writing and, if Fannie Mae disapproves such request, it will provide Borrower with a brief statement of the

 

38



 

reasons for such disapproval.  If Fannie Mae does not either approve or disapprove such request within such twenty (20) day period, such request shall be deemed approved.  Fannie Mae agrees and acknowledges that any and all Alterations undertaken prior to the Effective Date are hereby deemed approved, notwithstanding any failure of a Borrower to comply with the requirements set forth above.

Section 6.11.                                       Further Assurances.

 

Each Collateral Pool Borrower, at the request of Fannie Mae, shall execute and deliver and, if necessary, file or record such statements, documents, agreements, UCC financing and continuation statements and such other instruments and take such further action as Fannie Mae from time to time may request as reasonably necessary, desirable or proper to carry out more effectively the purposes of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents and the Guaranty for such Collateral Pool or to subject the Collateral to the lien and security interests of the Loan Documents for such Collateral Pool or to evidence, perfect or otherwise implement, to assure the lien and security interests intended by the terms of the Loan Documents for such Collateral Pool or in order to exercise or enforce its rights under the Loan Documents and the Guaranty for such Collateral Pool.

(k)                                 any final and nonappealable judgment against Borrower Party, any attachment or other levy against any portion of Borrower Party’s assets with respect to a claim or claims in an amount in excess of $250,000 individually and/or $500,000 in the aggregate remains unpaid, unstayed on appeal undischarged, unbonded, not fully insured or undismissed for a period of ninety (90) days; or

 

(l)                                     the failure by Borrower or Guarantor to perform or observe any material term, covenant, condition or agreement hereunder, other than as contained in subsections (a) through (k) above, or in any other Loan Document, within thirty (30) days after receipt of notice from Fannie Mae identifying such failure, provided such period shall be extended for up to thirty (30) additional days if Borrower, in the discretion of Fannie Mae, is diligently pursuing a cure of such default within thirty (30) days after receipt of notice from Fannie Mae and corrective action is instituted by Borrower within such period and pursued diligently and in good faith, then such failure shall not constitute an Event of Default unless such failure is not cured by Borrower within sixty (60) days after receipt of notice from Fannie Mae identifying such failure.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, collateral Pool 2 and Collateral Pool 6 are cross defaulted with each other.  Accordingly, any Event of Default with respect to a Collateral Pool 2 shall result in an Event of Default with respect to Collateral Pool 6 (each, a “Cross-Defaulted Collateral Pool”) and vice versa.

Section 10.01.                                Remedies; Waivers.

 

Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Fannie Mae may do any one or more of the following with respect to any Loan secured by a Collateral Pool to which the Event of Default (or the Borrower causing such Event of Default) relates or with respect to the applicable Cross-Defaulted Collateral Pool (without presentment, protest or notice of protest, all of which are expressly waived by each Borrower Party):

 

(a)                                 by written notice to the defaulting Collateral Pool Borrower and/or the Borrower of the Cross-Defaulted Collateral Pool, to be effective upon dispatch and declare the principal of, and interest on, the Loans and all other sums owing by such Borrower or by the Borrower of the Cross-Defaulted Collateral Pool to Fannie Mae under any of the Loan Documents and the Guaranty for such Collateral Pool or Cross-Defaulted Collateral Pool immediately due and payable, whereupon the principal of, and interest on, the Loans and all other sums owing by such Collateral Pool Borrower or Borrower of the Cross-Defaulted Collateral Pool to Fannie Mae under any of the Loan Documents and the Guaranty for such Collateral Pool or Cross-Defaulted Collateral Pool will become immediately due and payable.

 

(b)                                 Fannie Mae shall have the right to pursue any other remedies available to it under any of the Loan Documents and the Guaranty for such Collateral Pool or for such Cross-Defaulted Collateral Pool.

 

(c)                                  Fannie Mae shall have the right to pursue all remedies available to it at law or in equity, including obtaining specific performance and injunctive relief with respect to such Collateral Pool and/or the Cross-Defaulted Collateral Pool.

 

Section 10.02.                                Waivers; Rescission of Declaration.

 

Fannie Mae shall have the right, to be exercised in its complete discretion, to waive any breach hereunder (including the occurrence of an Event of Default), by a writing setting forth the terms, conditions, and extent of such waiver signed by Fannie Mae and delivered to the applicable Collateral Pool Borrower.  Unless such writing expressly provides to the contrary, any waiver so granted shall extend only to the specific event or occurrence which gave rise to the waiver and not to any other similar event or occurrence which occurs subsequent to the date of such waiver.

 

Section 10.03.                                Fannie Mae’s Right to Protect Collateral and Perform Covenants and Other Obligations.

 

If any Borrower or Guarantor fails to perform the covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents and the Guaranty for the applicable Collateral Pool, after all applicable grace periods, if any, then Fannie Mae at Fannie Mae’s option may make such appearances, disburse such sums and take such action as Fannie Mae deems necessary, in its sole discretion, to protect Fannie Mae’s interest, including (i)

 

54



 

disbursement of reasonable attorneys’ fees, (ii) entry upon the Mortgaged Property to make repairs and replacements, (iii) procurement of satisfactory insurance with respect to the Mortgaged Properties in such Collateral Pool as provided in this Agreement, and (iv) if the Security Instrument is on a leasehold, exercise of any option to renew or extend the ground lease on behalf of Borrower and the curing of any default of Borrower in the terms and conditions of the ground lease.  Any amounts disbursed by Fannie Mae pursuant to this Section 10.03, with interest thereon, shall become additional Indebtedness of Collateral Pool Borrower secured by the applicable Collateral Pool Loan Documents.  Unless the applicable Collateral Pool Borrower and Fannie Mae agree to other terms of payment, such amounts shall be immediately due and payable and shall bear interest from the date of disbursement at the weighted average, as determined by Fannie Mae, of the interest rates in effect from time to time for each Loan unless collection from such Borrower of interest at such rate would be contrary to Applicable Law, in which event such amounts shall bear interest at the highest rate which may be collected from such Borrower under Applicable Law.  Nothing contained in this Section 10.03 shall require Fannie Mae to incur any expense or take any action hereunder.

 

Section 10.04.                                No Remedy Exclusive.

 

Unless otherwise expressly provided, no remedy herein conferred upon or reserved is intended to be exclusive of any other available remedy, but each remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to other remedies given under the Loan Documents and the Guaranty or existing at law or in equity.

 

Section 10.05.                                No Waiver.

 

No delay or omission to exercise any right or power accruing under any Loan Document upon the happening of any Event of Default or Potential Event of Default shall impair any such right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver thereof, but any such right and power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient.

 

Section 10.06.                                No Notice.

 

To entitle Fannie Mae to exercise any remedy reserved to Fannie Mae in this Article 10, it shall not be necessary to give any notice, other than such notice as may be required under the applicable provisions of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents and the Guaranty.

 

Section 10.07.                                Cash Management.

 

In addition to the other remedies set forth herein and elsewhere in the Loan Documents and the Guaranty, upon an Event of Default, Fannie Mae shall be entitled to mandate the use of a lockbox bank account or other depositary account, to be maintained under the control and supervision of Fannie Mae, for all income of each Mortgaged Property, including rents, service charges, insurance payments and other items of revenue.

Section 11.02.                                Imposition Deposits.

 

Notwithstanding the provision of Section 7(d) of the Security Instrument, but subject to Section 11.01, on or before the first day of each Loan Year after the Effective Date, and on or before the Closing Date of a Substitution Request or a Release Request, if Fannie Mae determines, based on the foregoing methodology, that a modified amount is required to be

 

56



 

deposited with Fannie Mae as Imposition Deposits, applicable Collateral Pool Borrower shall deposit any deficiency with Fannie Mae, or Fannie Mae shall release any overage to such Collateral Pool Borrower, provided that, in the case of the latter, no Event of Default or Potential Event of Default then exists hereunder.  The applicable Collateral Pool Borrower shall, subject to such Collateral Pool Borrower’s right to contest under Section 15(d) of the Security Instruments, pay each Imposition relating to a Mortgaged Property before the last date upon which such payment may be made without any penalty or interest charge being added.  Subject to such Collateral Pool Borrower’s right to contest under Section 15(d) of the Security Instruments, such Collateral Pool Borrower shall deliver to Fannie Mae evidence that such Borrower has paid each Imposition within thirty (30) days after making such payment.

 

Section 11.03.                                Replacement Reserves.

 

Each Collateral Pool Borrower has executed a Replacement Reserve Agreement for each of the Mortgaged Properties in the respective Collateral Pool and shall (unless waived by Fannie Mae) make all deposits for replacement reserves in accordance with the terms of the Replacement Reserve Agreement.

(b)                                 Exceptions to Limits on Personal Liability.  Each Collateral Pool Borrower shall be personally liable to Fannie Mae for the repayment of a portion of the Loans and other amounts due under the Loan Documents evidencing such Collateral Pool Borrower’s Loan equal to any actual loss or actual damage suffered by Fannie Mae as a result of (i) failure of

 

57

(c)                                  Full Recourse.  Each Collateral Pool Borrower shall be personally liable to Fannie Mae for the payment and performance of all Obligations upon the occurrence of any of the following Events of Default: (i) if a Transfer shall occur in violation of Sections 6.12, 6.13 or 6.14 of this Agreement or if any Mortgaged Property or any part thereof is otherwise conveyed, assigned, mortgaged, pledged, leased or encumbered in any way other than as permitted under this Agreement or any Security Instrument without the prior written consent of Fannie Mae; or (ii) a Bankruptcy Event.  As used in this subparagraph, the term “Bankruptcy Event” means any one or more of the following events which occurs during the Term of the Agreement:

 

(i)                                     the commencement, filing or continuation of a voluntary case or proceeding under one or more of the Insolvency Laws by any Borrower Entity  seeking to take advantage of any other laws, domestic or foreign, relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, debt adjustment, winding up or composition or adjustment of debts.

(vi)                              any action by a Borrower Entity for the purpose of effecting any of the foregoing; provided, however, that any proceeding or case under (iv) or (v) above shall not be a Bankruptcy Event so long as such proceeding or case occurred without the consent, encouragement, active participation or the failure to object in a timely and appropriate manner by any Borrower Entity  (in which event such case or proceeding shall be a Bankruptcy Event).

 

(d)                                 Permitted Transfer Not ReleaseNo Transfer by any party of its Ownership Interests in the Borrower shall release the party from liability under this Article 12, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, unless Fannie Mae shall have approved the Transfer in accordance with this Agreement, or such Transfer is otherwise permitted in this Agreement, and shall have expressly released the party in connection with the Transfer.

(ii)                                  the Additional Borrower shall be Controlled by Guarantor and shall be at least 51% owned, directly or indirectly, by Guarantor.

Section 12.03.                                Borrower Agency Provisions.

 

(a)                                 Each Borrower and Additional Borrower hereby irrevocably designates AvalonBay as the borrower agent (the “Borrower Agent”) to be its agent and in such capacity to receive on behalf of Borrower all proceeds, receive all notices on behalf of Borrower under this Agreement, make all Requests under this Agreement, and execute, deliver and receive all instruments, certificates, Requests, documents, amendments, writings and further assurances now or hereafter required hereunder, on behalf of such Borrower, and hereby authorizes Fannie Mae to pay over all loan proceeds hereunder in accordance with the direction of Borrower Agent.  Each Borrower hereby acknowledges that all notices required to be delivered by Fannie Mae to any Borrower shall be delivered to Borrower Agent and thereby shall be deemed to have been received by such Borrower.

 

(b)                                 The handling of this credit facility as a co-borrowing facility with a Borrower Agent in the manner set forth in this Agreement is solely as an accommodation to Borrower and is at their request.  Fannie Mae shall not incur liability to Borrower as a result thereof.  To induce Fannie Mae to do so and in consideration thereof, each Borrower hereby indemnifies Fannie Mae and holds Fannie Mae harmless from and against any and all liabilities, expenses, losses, damages and claims of damage or injury asserted against Fannie Mae by any Person arising from or incurred by reason of Borrower Agent handling of the financing arrangements of Borrower as provided herein, reliance by Fannie Mae on any request or instruction from Borrower Agent or any other action taken by Fannie Mae with respect to this Section 12.03 except due to willful misconduct or gross negligence of the indemnified party.

 

Section 12.04.                                Waivers With Respect to Other Borrower Secured Obligation.

 

To the extent that a Security Instrument or any other Loan Document executed by one (1) Collateral Pool Borrower secures an Obligation of another Collateral Pool Borrower (the “Other Borrower Secured Obligation”), and/or to the extent that a Collateral Pool Borrower has guaranteed the debt of another Borrower subject to such Collateral Pool pursuant to Article 12, the Borrower who executed such Loan Document and/or guaranteed such debt (the “Waiving Borrower”) hereby agrees to the provisions of this Section 12.04.  To the extent that any Mortgaged Properties are located in California, the references to the California Code below shall apply to this Agreement and any California Security Instrument securing a California Mortgaged

 

60



 

Property, otherwise the California Code shall have no effect on this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

 

(a)                                 The Waiving Borrower hereby waives any right it may now or hereafter have to require the beneficiary, assignee or other secured party under such Loan Document, as a condition to the exercise of any remedy or other right against it thereunder or under any other Loan Document executed by the Waiving Borrower in connection with the Other Borrower Secured Obligation: (i) to proceed against the other Borrower or any other person, or against any other collateral assigned to Fannie Mae by either Borrower or any other person; (ii) to pursue any other right or remedy in Fannie Mae’s power; (iii) to give notice of the time, place or terms of any public or private sale of real or personal property collateral assigned to Fannie Mae by the other  Borrower or any other person (other than the Waiving Borrower), or otherwise to comply with Section 9615 of the California Commercial Code (as modified or recodified from time to time) with respect to any such personal property collateral located in the State of California; or (iv) to make or give (except as otherwise expressly provided in the Security Documents) any presentment, demand, protest, notice of dishonor, notice of protest or other demand or notice of any kind in connection with the Other Borrower Secured Obligation or any collateral (other than the Collateral described in such Security Document) for the Other Borrower Secured Obligation.

 

(b)                                 The Waiving Borrower hereby waives any defense it may now or hereafter have that relates to: (i) any disability or other defense of the other Borrower or any other person; (ii) the cessation, from any cause other than full performance, of the Other Borrower Secured Obligation; (iii) the application of the proceeds of the Other Borrower Secured Obligation, by the other Borrower or any other person, for purposes other than the purposes represented to the Waiving Borrower by the other Borrower or otherwise intended or understood by the Waiving Borrower or the other Borrower; (iv) any act or omission by Fannie Mae which directly or indirectly results in or contributes to the release of the other Borrower or any other person or any collateral for any Other Borrower Secured Obligation; (v) the unenforceability or invalidity of any Security Document or other Borrower Loan Document (other than the Security Instrument or Reimbursement Mortgage executed by the Waiving Borrower that secures the Other Borrower Secured Obligation) or guaranty with respect to any Other Borrower Secured Obligation, or the lack of perfection or continuing perfection or lack of priority of any Lien (other than the Lien of such Security Instrument) which secures any Other Borrower Secured Obligation; (vi) any failure of Fannie Mae to marshal assets in favor of the Waiving Borrower or any other person; (vii) any modification of any Other Borrower Secured Obligation, including any renewal, extension, acceleration or increase in interest rate; (viii) any and all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies by Fannie Mae, even though that election of remedies, such as a nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to security for a guaranteed obligation, has destroyed the Waiving Borrower’s rights of subrogation and reimbursement against the principal by the operation of Section 580d of the California Code of Civil Procedure or otherwise; (ix) any law which provides that the obligation of a surety or guarantor must neither be larger in amount nor in other respects more burdensome than that of the principal or which reduces a surety’s or guarantor’s obligation in proportion to the principal obligation; (x) any failure of Fannie Mae to file or enforce a claim in any bankruptcy or other proceeding with respect to any person; (xi) the election by Fannie Mae, in any bankruptcy proceeding of any person, of the application or non-application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code; (xii) any extension of credit or the

 

61



 

grant of any lien under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code; (xiii) any use of cash collateral under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code; or (xiv) any agreement or stipulation with respect to the provision of adequate protection in any bankruptcy proceeding of any person.  The Waiving Borrower further waives any and all rights and defenses that it may have because the Other Borrower Secured Obligation is secured by real property; this means, among other things, that:  (A) Fannie Mae may collect from the Waiving Borrower without first foreclosing on any real or personal property collateral pledged by the other Borrower; (B) if Fannie Mae forecloses on any real property collateral pledged by the other Borrower, then (1) the amount of the Other Borrower Secured Obligation  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, and (2) Fannie Mae may foreclose on the real property encumbered by the Security Instrument executed by the Waiving Borrower and securing the Other Borrower Secured Obligation even if Fannie Mae, by foreclosing on the real property collateral of the Other Borrower, has destroyed any right the Waiving Borrower may have to collect from the Other Borrower.  Subject to the last sentence of Section 12.03, the foregoing sentence is an unconditional and irrevocable waiver of any rights and defenses the Waiving Borrower may have because the Other Borrower Secured Obligation is secured by real property.  These rights and defenses being waived by the Waiving Borrower 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.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing or any other provision hereof, the Waiving Borrower further expressly waives, except as provided in Section 12.04(g) below, to the extent permitted by law any and all rights and defenses, which might otherwise be available to it under California Civil Code Sections 2787 to 2855, inclusive, 2899 and 3433, or under California Code of Civil Procedure Sections 580a, 580b, 580d and 726, or any of such sections.

 

(c)                                  The Waiving Borrower hereby waives any and all benefits and defenses under California Civil Code Section 2810 and agrees that by doing so the Security Instrument executed by the Waiving Borrower and securing the Other Borrower Secured Obligation shall be and remain in full force and effect even if the other Borrower had no liability at the time of incurring the Other Borrower Secured Obligation, or thereafter ceases to be liable.  The Waiving Borrower hereby waives any and all benefits and defenses under California Civil Code Section 2809 and agrees that by doing so the Waiving Borrower’s liability may be larger in amount and more burdensome than that of the other Borrower.  The Waiving Borrower hereby waives the benefit of all principles or provisions of law, which are or might be in conflict with the terms of any of its waivers, and agrees that the Waiving Borrower’s waivers shall not be affected by any circumstances, which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge of a surety or a guarantor.  The Waiving Borrower hereby waives the benefits of any right of discharge and all other rights under any and all statutes or other laws relating to guarantors or sureties, to the fullest extent permitted by law, diligence in collecting the Other Borrower Secured Obligation, presentment, demand for payment, protest, all notices with respect to the Other Borrower Secured Obligation, which may be required by statute, rule of law or otherwise to preserve Fannie Mae’s rights against the Waiving Borrower hereunder, including notice of acceptance, notice of any amendment of the Loan Documents evidencing the Other Borrower Secured Obligation, notice of the occurrence of any default or Event of Default, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of acceleration, notice of dishonor, notice of foreclosure, notice of protest, notice of the incurring by the other Borrower of any obligation or indebtedness and all rights to

 

62



 

require Fannie Mae to (i) proceed against the other Borrower, (ii) proceed against any general partner of the other Borrower, (iii) proceed against or exhaust any collateral held by Fannie Mae to secure the Other Borrower Secured Obligation, or (iv) if the other Borrower is a partnership, pursue any other remedy it may have against the other Borrower or any general partner of the other Borrower, including any and all benefits under California Civil Code Sections 2845, 2849 and 2850.

 

(d)                                 The Waiving Borrower understands that the exercise by Fannie Mae of certain rights and remedies contained in a Security Instrument executed by the other Borrower (such as a nonjudicial foreclosure sale) may affect or eliminate the Waiving Borrower’s right of subrogation against the other Borrower and that the Waiving Borrower may therefore incur a partially or totally nonreimburseable liability.  Nevertheless, the Waiving Borrower hereby authorizes and empowers Fannie Mae to exercise, in its sole and absolute discretion, any right or remedy, or any combination thereof, which may then be available, since it is the intent and purpose of the Waiving Borrower that its waivers shall be absolute, independent and unconditional under any and all circumstances.

 

(e)                                  In accordance with Section 2856 of the California Civil Code, the Waiving Borrower also waives any right or defense based upon an election of remedies by Fannie Mae, even though such election (e.g., nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to any collateral held by Fannie Mae to secure repayment of the Other Borrower Secured Obligation) destroys or otherwise impairs the subrogation rights of the Waiving Borrower to any right to proceed against the other Borrower for reimbursement, or both, by operation of Section 580d of the California Code of Civil Procedure or otherwise.

 

(f)                                   In accordance with Section 2856 of the California Civil Code, the Waiving Borrower waives any and all other rights and defenses available to the Waiving Borrower by reason of Sections 2787 through 2855, inclusive, of the California Civil Code, including any and all rights or defenses the Waiving Borrower may have by reason of protection afforded to the other Borrower with respect to the Other Borrower Secured Obligation pursuant to the antideficiency or other laws of the State of California limiting or discharging the Other Borrower Secured Obligation, including Sections 580a, 580b, 580d, and 726 of the California Code of Civil Procedure.

 

(g)                                  In accordance with Section 2856 of the California Civil Code and pursuant to any other Applicable Law, the Waiving Borrower agrees to withhold the exercise of any and all subrogation, contribution and reimbursement rights against Borrower, against any other person, and against any collateral or security for the Other Borrower Secured Obligation, including any such rights pursuant to Sections 2847 and 2848 of the California Civil Code, until the Other Borrower Secured Obligation has been indefeasibly paid and satisfied in full, all obligations owed to Fannie Mae under the Loan Documents have been fully performed, and Fannie Mae have released, transferred or disposed of all of their right, title and interest in such collateral or security.

 

(h)                                 Each Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that in the event that, notwithstanding Section 12.04(g) hereof, to the extent its agreement and waiver set

 

63



 

forth in Section 12.04(g) is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be void or voidable for any reason and such Borrower has any subrogation or other rights against any other Borrower, any such claims, direct or indirect, that such Borrower may have by subrogation rights or other form of reimbursement, contribution or indemnity, against any other Borrower or to any security or any such Borrower, shall be and such rights, claims and indebtedness are hereby deferred, postponed and fully subordinated in time and right of payment to the prior payment, performance and satisfaction in full of the Obligations.  Until payment and performance in full with interest (including post-petition interest in any case under any chapter of the Bankruptcy Code) of the Obligations, each Borrower agrees not to accept any payment, or satisfaction of any kind, of Indebtedness of any other Borrower in respect of any such subrogation rights arising by virtue of payments made pursuant to this Article 12, and hereby assigns such rights or indebtedness to Fannie Mae, including the right to file proofs of claim and to vote thereon in connection with any case under any chapter of the Bankruptcy Code, including the right to vote on any plan of reorganization.  In the event that any payment on account of any such subrogation rights shall be received by any Borrower in violation of the foregoing, such payment shall be held in trust for the benefit of Fannie Mae, and any amount so collected should be turned over to Fannie Mae for application to the Obligations.

 

(i)                                     At any time without notice to the Waiving Borrower, and without affecting or prejudicing the right of Fannie Mae to proceed against the Collateral described in any Loan Document executed by the Waiving Borrower and securing the Other Borrower Secured Obligation, (i) the time for payment of the principal of or interest on, or the performance of, the Other Borrower Secured Obligation may be extended or the Other Borrower Secured Obligation may be renewed in whole or in part; (ii) the time for the other Borrower’s performance of or compliance with any covenant or agreement contained in the Loan Documents evidencing the Other Borrower Secured Obligation, whether presently existing or hereinafter entered into, may be extended or such performance or compliance may be waived; (iii) the maturity of the Other Borrower Secured Obligation may be accelerated as provided in the related Note or any other related Loan Document; (iv) the related Note or any other related Loan Document may be modified or amended by Fannie Mae and the other Borrower in any respect, including an increase in the principal amount; and (v) any security for the Other Borrower Secured Obligation may be modified, exchanged, surrendered or otherwise dealt with or additional security may be pledged or mortgaged for the Other Borrower Secured Obligation.

 

(j)                                    It is agreed among each Borrower and Fannie Mae that all of the foregoing waivers are of the essence of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement and the Loan Documents and that but for the provisions of this Article 12 and such waivers Fannie Mae would decline to enter into this Agreement.

 

(k)                                 Waiving Borrower represents and warrants having established with other Borrower adequate means of obtaining, on an ongoing basis, such information as waiving Borrower may require concerning all matters bearing on the risk of nonpayment or nonperformance of the Obligations.  Waiving Borrower assumes sole, continuing responsibility for obtaining such information from sources other than from Fannie Mae.  Fannie Mae has no duty to provide any information to Waiving Borrower.

Section 12.05.                                Joint and Several Obligation; Cross-Guaranty.

 

Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents to the contrary (but subject to the last sentence of Section 12.02 and the provisions of Section 12.12), each Borrower shall have joint and several liability for all Obligations of the Loan secured by such Borrower’s Collateral Pool.  Notwithstanding the intent of all of the parties to this Agreement that all Obligations of each Borrower with respect to a Collateral Pool under this Agreement and the other Borrower Loan Documents shall be joint and several Obligations of each Borrower subject to such Collateral Pool, each Borrower, on a joint and several basis, hereby irrevocably guarantees to Fannie Mae and its successors and assigns, the full and prompt payment of the Loan secured by such Borrower’s Collateral Pool (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) and performance of, all Obligations secured by such Borrower’s Collateral Pool owed or hereafter owing to Fannie Mae by each other Borrower owning a Mortgaged Property subject to the same Collateral Pool.  Each Borrower agrees that its guaranty obligation hereunder is an unconditional guaranty of payment and performance and not merely a guaranty of collection.  The Obligations of each Borrower under this Agreement shall not be subject to any counterclaim, set-off, recoupment, deduction, cross-claim or defense based upon any claim any Borrower may have against Fannie Mae or any other Borrower.

 

Section 12.06.                                No Impairment.

 

Each Borrower agrees that the provisions of this Article 12 are for the benefit of Fannie Mae and their successors, transferees, endorsees and assigns, and nothing herein contained shall impair, as between any other Borrower and Fannie Mae, the obligations of such other Borrower under the Loan Documents.

 

Section 12.07.                                Election of Remedies.

 

(a)                                 Fannie Mae, in its discretion, may (i) bring suit against any one or more Collateral Pool Borrower, jointly and severally, without any requirement that Fannie Mae first proceed against any other Borrower or any other Person; (ii) compromise or settle with any one or more Borrower, or any other Person, for such consideration as Fannie Mae may deem proper; (iii) release one or more Borrower, or any other Person, from liability; and (iv) otherwise deal with any Borrower and any other Person, or any one or more of them, in any manner, or resort to any of the Collateral at any time held by it for performance of the Obligations or any other source or means of obtaining payment of the Obligations, and no such action shall impair the rights of Fannie Mae to collect from any Borrower any amount guaranteed by any Borrower under this Article 12.

 

(b)                                 If, in the exercise of any of its rights and remedies, Fannie Mae shall forfeit any of its rights or remedies, including its rights to enter a deficiency judgment against any Collateral Pool Borrower or any other Person, whether because of any Applicable Laws pertaining to “election of remedies” or the like, each Collateral Pool Borrower hereby consents to such action by Fannie Mae and waives any claim based upon such action, even if such action by Fannie Mae shall result in a full or partial loss or any rights of subrogation which each such Borrower might otherwise have had but for such action by Fannie Mae.  Any election of

 

65



 

remedies which results in the denial or impairment of the right of Fannie Mae to seek a deficiency judgment against any Collateral Pool Borrower shall not impair any other such Collateral Pool Borrower’s obligation to pay the full amount of the Obligations secured by the applicable Collateral Pool.  In the event Fannie Mae shall bid at any foreclosure or trustee’s sale or at any private sale permitted by law or any of the Loan Documents, Fannie Mae may bid all or less than the amount of the Obligations secured by the applicable Collateral Pool and the amount of such bid need not be paid by Fannie Mae but shall be credited against the Obligations secured by the applicable Collateral Pool.  The amount of the successful bid at any such sale, whether Fannie Mae or any other party is the successful bidder, shall be conclusively deemed to be fair market value of the Collateral secured by the applicable Collateral Pool and the difference between such bid amount and the remaining balance of the Obligations secured by the applicable Collateral Pool shall be conclusively deemed to be amount of the Obligations secured by the applicable Collateral Pool guaranteed under this Article 12, notwithstanding that any present or future law or court decision or ruling may have the effect of reducing the amount of any deficiency claim to which Fannie Mae might otherwise be entitled but for such bidding at any such sale.

 

Section 12.08.                                Subordination of Other Obligations.

 

(a)                                 Each Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all amounts payable from time to time to such Borrower by any other Borrower pursuant to any agreement, whether secured or unsecured, whether of principal, interest or otherwise, other than the amounts referred to in this Article 12 (collectively, the “Subordinated Obligations”), shall be and such rights, claims and indebtedness are, hereby deferred, postponed and fully subordinated in time and right of payment to the prior payment, performance and satisfaction in full of the Obligations; provided, however, that payments may be received by any Borrower in accordance with, and only in accordance with, the provisions of Section 12.08(b) hereof.

 

(b)                                 Until the Obligations under all the Loan Documents and the Guaranty have been finally paid in full or fully performed and all the Loan Documents and the Guaranty for such Collateral Pool have been terminated, each such Collateral Pool Borrower irrevocably and unconditionally agrees it will not ask, demand, sue for, take or receive, directly or indirectly, by set-off, redemption, purchase or in any other manner whatsoever, any payment with respect to, or any security or guaranty for, the whole or any part of the Subordinated Obligations, and in issuing documents, instruments or agreements of any kind evidencing the Subordinated Obligations, each such Collateral Pool Borrower hereby agrees that it will not receive any payment of any kind on account of the Subordinated Obligations, so long as any of the Obligations under all the Loan Documents and the Guaranty are outstanding or any of the terms and conditions of any of the Loan Documents and the Guaranty are in effect; provided, however, that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if no Potential Event of Default or Event of Default or any other event or condition which would constitute an Event of Default after notice or lapse of time or both has occurred and is continuing under any of the Loan Documents and the Guaranty pertaining to such Collateral Pool, then (i) payments may be received by such Borrower in respect of the Subordinated Obligations in accordance with the stated terms thereof, and (ii) each such Borrower and Guarantor shall be permitted to make distributions in accordance with the terms of the applicable Organizational Documents.  Except

 

66



 

as aforesaid, each Borrower agrees not to accept any payment or satisfaction of any kind of indebtedness of any other Borrower in respect of the Subordinated Obligations and hereby assigns such rights or indebtedness to Fannie Mae, which assignment shall be of no further force and effect upon full satisfaction of the Obligations, including the right to file proofs of claim and to vote thereon in connection with any case under any chapter of the Bankruptcy Code, including the right to vote on any plan of reorganization.  In the event that any payment on account of Subordinated Obligations shall be received by any Borrower in violation of the foregoing, such payment shall be held in trust for the benefit of Fannie Mae, and any amount so collected shall be turned over to Fannie Mae upon demand.

 

Section 12.09.                                Insolvency and Liability of Other Borrower.

 

So long as any of the Obligations are outstanding with respect to the applicable Collateral Pool, if a petition under any chapter of the Bankruptcy Code is filed by or against any Collateral Pool Borrower (the “Subject Borrower” for the purposes of Section 12.09, Section 12.10, Section 12.11 and Section 12.12 of this Agreement), each other Collateral Pool Borrower subject to such Collateral Pool (each, an “Other Borrower” for the purposes of Section 12.09, Section 12.10, Section 12.11 and Section 12.12 of this Agreement) agrees to file all claims against the Subject Borrower in any bankruptcy or other proceeding in which the filing of claims is required by law in connection with indebtedness owed by the Subject Borrower and to assign to Fannie Mae all rights thereunder up to the amount of such indebtedness, which assignment shall be of no further force and effect upon full satisfaction of the Obligations.  In all such cases, the Person or Persons authorized to pay such claims shall pay to Fannie Mae the full amount thereof and Fannie Mae agrees to pay such Other Borrower any amounts received in excess of the amount necessary to pay the Obligations of the Loan secured by such Borrower’s Mortgaged Property.  Each Other Borrower hereby assigns to Fannie Mae all of such Borrower’s rights to all such payments to which such Other Borrower would otherwise be entitled but not to exceed the full amount of the Obligations.  In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing, any such payment shall be received by any Other Borrower before the Obligations shall have been finally paid in full, such payment shall be held in trust for the benefit of and shall be paid over to Fannie Mae upon demand.  Furthermore, notwithstanding the foregoing, the liability of each Borrower hereunder shall in no way be affected by:

 

(a)                                 the release or discharge of any Other Borrower in any creditors’, receivership, bankruptcy or other proceedings; or

 

(b)                                 the impairment, limitation or modification of the liability of any Other Borrower or the estate of any Other Borrower in bankruptcy resulting from the operation of any present or future provisions of any chapter of the Bankruptcy Code or other statute or from the decision in any court.

 

Section 12.10.                                Preferences, Fraudulent Conveyances, Etc.

 

If Fannie Mae is required to refund (and actually refunds), or voluntarily refunds, any payment received from any Borrower because such payment is or may be avoided, invalidated, declared fraudulent, set aside or determined to be void or voidable as a preference, fraudulent

 

67



 

conveyance, impermissible setoff or a diversion of trust funds under the bankruptcy laws or for any similar reason, including without limitation any judgment, order or decree of any court or administrative body having jurisdiction over any Borrower or any of its property, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor, custodian or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, any Borrower or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, or any statement or compromise of any claim effected by Fannie Mae with any Borrower or any other claimant (a “Rescinded Payment”), then each Other Borrower’s liability to Fannie Mae shall continue in full force and effect, or each Other Borrower’s liability to Fannie Mae shall be reinstated and renewed, as the case may be, with the same effect and to the same extent as if the Rescinded Payment had not been received by Fannie Mae, notwithstanding the cancellation or termination of any of the Loan Documents, and regardless of whether Fannie Mae contested the order requiring the return of such payment.  In addition, each Other Borrower shall pay, or reimburse Fannie Mae for, all expenses (including all reasonable attorneys’ fees, court costs and related disbursements) incurred by Fannie Mae in the defense of any claim that a payment received by Fannie Mae in respect of all or any part of the Obligations must be refunded.  The provisions of this Section 12.10 shall survive the termination of the Borrower Loan Documents and any satisfaction and discharge of any Borrower by virtue of any payment, court order or any federal or state law.

 

Section 12.11.                                Maximum Liability of Each Borrower.

 

Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents to the contrary, if the obligations of any Borrower under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or any Security Instruments granted by any Borrower are determined to exceed the reasonably equivalent value received by such Borrower in exchange for such obligations or grant of such Security Instruments under any Fraudulent Transfer Law (as hereinafter defined), then such liability of such Borrower shall be limited to a maximum aggregate amount equal to the largest amount that would not render its obligations under this Agreement or all the Other Loan Documents subject to avoidance as a fraudulent transfer or conveyance under Section 548 of Title 11 of the United States Code or any applicable provisions of comparable state law (collectively, the “Fraudulent Transfer Laws”), in each case after giving effect to all other liabilities of such Borrower, contingent or otherwise, that are relevant under the Fraudulent Transfer Laws (specifically excluding, however, any liabilities of such Borrower in respect of Indebtedness to any Other Borrower or any other Person that is an Affiliate of the Other Borrower to the extent that such Indebtedness would be discharged in an amount equal to the amount paid by such Borrower in respect of the Obligations) and after giving effect (as assets) to the value (as determined under the applicable provisions of the Fraudulent Transfer Laws) of any rights to subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification or contribution of such Borrower pursuant to Applicable Law or pursuant to the terms of any agreement including the Contribution Agreement.

 

Section 12.12.                                Liability Cumulative.

 

The liability of each Borrower under this Article 12 is in addition to and shall be cumulative with all liabilities of such Borrower to Fannie Mae under this Agreement and all the

 

68



 

other Loan Documents to which such Borrower is a party or in respect of any Obligations of any Other Borrower.

 

ARTICLE 13
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

 

Section 13.01.                                Counterparts.

 

To facilitate execution, this Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts.  It shall not be necessary that the signatures of, or on behalf of, each party, or that the signatures of all persons required to bind any party, appear on each counterpart, but it shall be sufficient that the signature of, or on behalf of, each party, appear on one (1) or more counterparts.  All counterparts shall collectively constitute a single agreement.  It shall not be necessary in making proof of this Agreement to produce or account for more than the number of counterparts containing the respective signatures of, or on behalf of, all of the parties hereto.

 

Section 13.02.                                Amendments, Changes and Modifications.

 

This Agreement may be amended, changed, modified, altered or terminated only by written instrument or written instruments signed by all of the parties hereto.

 

Section 13.03.                                Payment of Costs, Fees and Expenses.

 

The applicable Collateral Pool Borrower shall pay, on demand, all reasonable third-party out-of-pocket fees, costs, charges or expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of attorneys, accountants and other experts) incurred by Fannie Mae in connection with:

 

(a)                                 Any amendment, consent, review or waiver to or requested under this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents and the Guaranty (whether or not any such amendments, consents or waivers are entered into) for such Collateral Pool.

 

(b)                                 Defending or participating in any litigation arising from actions by third parties and brought against or involving Fannie Mae with respect to (i) any Mortgaged Property in such Collateral Pool, (ii) any event, act, condition or circumstance in connection with any Mortgaged Property in such Collateral Pool, or (iii) the relationship between Fannie Mae and such Borrower and Guarantor in connection with this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

69



 

any franchise, excise, estate, inheritance, income, excess profits or similar tax on Fannie Mae.  Any attorneys’ fees and expenses payable by such Borrower pursuant to this Section 13.03 shall be recoverable separately from and in addition to any other amount included in such judgment, and such obligation is intended to be severable from the other provisions of this Agreement and to survive and not be merged into any such judgment.  Any amounts payable by Borrower pursuant to this Section 13.03, with interest thereon if not paid when due, shall become additional Indebtedness of such Borrower secured by the Loan Documents evidencing the Loan secured by Borrower’s Mortgaged Property.  Such amounts shall bear interest from the date such amounts are due until paid in full at the weighted average, as determined by Fannie Mae, of the interest rates in effect from time to time for each Loan unless collection from such Borrower of interest at such rate would be contrary to Applicable Law, in which event such amounts shall bear interest at the highest rate which may be collected from such Borrower under Applicable Law.  The provisions of this Section 13.03 are cumulative with, and do not exclude the application and benefit to Fannie Mae of, any provision of any other Loan Document relating to any of the matters covered by this Section 13.03.

 

Section 13.04.                                Payment Procedure.

 

All payments to be made to Fannie Mae pursuant to this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents and the Guaranty shall be made in lawful currency of the United States of America and in immediately available funds by wire transfer to an account designated by Fannie Mae before 1:00 p.m. (Eastern Standard Time or Eastern Daylight Time, as applicable) on the date when due.

 

Section 13.05.                                Payments on Business Days.

 

In any case in which the date of payment to Fannie Mae or the expiration of any time period hereunder occurs on a day which is not a Business Day, then, unless expressly otherwise provided, such payment or expiration of such time period need not occur on such date but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on the day of maturity or expiration of such period, except that interest shall continue to accrue for the period after such date to the next Business Day.

(b)                                 Further Documentation.  Without limiting the generality of subsection (a), in the event any further documentation or information is required by Fannie Mae to correct patent mistakes in the Loan Documents and the Guaranty, materials relating to the Title Insurance Policies or the funding of the Loans, Borrower shall provide, or cause to be provided to Fannie Mae, at its cost and expense, such documentation or information.  Borrower shall execute and deliver to Fannie Mae such documentation, including any amendments, corrections, deletions or additions to the Notes, the Security Instruments or the other Loan Documents and the Guaranty as is reasonably required by Fannie Mae.

 

Section 13.10.                                Term of this Agreement.

 

This Agreement shall continue in effect until the Facility Termination Date.

 

Section 13.11.                                Assignments; Third-Party Rights.

 

No Borrower shall assign this Agreement, or delegate any of its obligations hereunder, without the prior written consent of Fannie Mae.  Fannie Mae may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement separately or together, without Borrower’s consent.

 

Section 13.12.                                Headings.

 

Article and Section headings used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and are not to affect the construction of, or to be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.

 

Section 13.13.                                General Interpretive Principles.

 

For purposes of this Agreement, except as otherwise expressly provided or unless the context otherwise requires, (i) the terms defined in Appendix I and elsewhere in this Agreement have the meanings assigned to them in this Agreement and include the plural as well as the singular, and the use of any gender herein shall be deemed to include the other genders; (ii) accounting terms not otherwise defined herein have the meanings assigned to them in accordance with GAAP; (iii) references herein to “Articles,” “Sections,” “subsections,” “paragraphs” and other subdivisions without reference to a document are to designated Articles, Sections, subsections, paragraphs and other subdivisions of this Agreement; (iv) a reference to a subsection without further reference to a Section is a reference to such subsection as contained in the same Section in which the reference appears, and this rule shall also apply to paragraphs and other subdivisions; (v) a reference to an Exhibit or a Schedule without a further reference to the

 

74



 

document to which the Exhibit or Schedule is attached is a reference to an Exhibit or Schedule to this Agreement; (vi) the words “herein,” “hereof,” “hereunder” and other words of similar import refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision; and (vii) the word “including” means “including, but not limited to.”

 

Section 13.14.                                Interpretation.

 

The parties hereto acknowledge that each party and their respective counsel have participated in the drafting and revision of this Agreement and the Loan Documents and the Guaranty.  Accordingly, the parties agree that any rule of construction which disfavors the drafting party shall not apply in the interpretation of this Agreement and the Loan Documents and the Guaranty or any amendment or supplement or exhibit hereto or thereto.

 

Section 13.15.                                Standards for Decisions, Etc.

 

Unless otherwise provided herein, if Fannie Mae’s approval is required for any matter hereunder, such approval may be granted or withheld in Fannie Mae’s sole and absolute discretion.  Unless otherwise provided herein, if Fannie Mae’s designation, determination, selection, estimate, action or decision is required, permitted or contemplated hereunder, such designation, determination, selection, estimate, action or decision shall be made in Fannie Mae’s sole and absolute discretion.

 

Section 13.16.                                Decisions in Writing.

 

Any approval, designation, determination, selection, action or decision of Fannie Mae or Borrower must be in writing to be effective.

 

Section 13.17.                                Supersedes Original Agreement.

 

This Agreement amends and restates the Original Agreement in its entirety as it relates to the Loans.  The Other Loans are governed by a separate Master Credit Facility Agreement of even date herewith, which agreement amends and restates the Original Agreement in its entirety as it relates to the Other Loans.  The Original Agreement is of no further force and effect.

 

Section 13.18.                                USA Patriot Act.

 

Fannie Mae hereby notifies each Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Borrower, which information includes the name and address of each Borrower and other information that will allow such Fannie Mae to identify each Borrower in accordance with such Act.

 

Section 13.19.                                All Asset Filings.

 

If Fannie Mae believes that an “all-asset” collateral description, as contemplated by Section 9-504(2) of the UCC, is appropriate as to any Collateral under any Loan Document, Fannie Mae is irrevocably authorized to use such a collateral description, whether in one or more

 

75



 

separate filings or as part of the collateral description in a filing that particularly describes the Collateral.

 

Section 13.20.                                Ratification; Conflict.

 

Except as expressly terminated or amended by the provisions of this Agreement or any other documents executed in connection with this Agreement, and except for the Original Agreement (which is amended and restated in its entirety by this Agreement as relates to the Loans), all of the Loan Documents (as defined in the Original Agreement) relating to the Loans or the Collateral Pools secured by the Loans remain in full force and effect.  If any provision of this Agreement is in conflict with any provision of any other Loan Document, the provision contained in this Agreement shall control and such conflicting provision or provisions of such other Loan Document shall be deemed to be amended hereby to the extent necessary to make such other provision consistent with this Agreement in all respects; provided, however, that the following provisions of the Security Instrument shall control in the event any of them conflicts with a provision of this Agreement:  Section 4(e), 4(f), 4(g), 13, 17(a), 19(g) and 20(c).

 

Section 13.21.                                Special Provisions Regarding Payment of Interest on Imposition Deposits.

 

Notwithstanding anything in the Loan Documents to the contrary, including but not limited to Section 7(b) of each Security Instrument, Fannie Mae shall be required to pay Borrower any interest, earnings or profits on the Imposition Deposits at a rate per annum equal to the prevailing Federal Funds Target Rate less one-quarter of one percent (0.25%) and not the Federal Funds Effective Rate, as otherwise set forth in the Security Instruments.  “Federal Funds Target Rate” shall mean, for any day, the rate per annum announced by the Federal Reserve Board as the “Federal Funds Target Rate.”

THIS [JOINDER TO AND] CONFIRMATION OF GUARANTY (the “Confirmation”) is made as of the        day of                         , 20    , by                                                         , a Delaware limited partnership (“Guarantor”, [and (vii)                        (“Additional Guarantor”)], for the benefit of FANNIE MAE, the corporation duly organized under the Federal National Mortgage Association Charter Act, as amended, 12 U.S.C. §1716 et seq. and duly organized and existing under the laws of the United States  (“Fannie Mae”).

 

A.                                    Guarantor entered into or joined into that certain Guaranty (Collateral Pool     ) dated as of February [    ], 2013, for the benefit of Fannie Mae (the “Guaranty”) to guaranty the Guaranteed Obligations (as defined in the Guaranty) under that certain Master Credit Facility Agreement, dated as of February [    ], 2013 (the “Master Agreement”) by and among the borrowers set forth therein (individually and collectively, the “Borrower”), Fannie Mae and other borrowers signatory thereto.  All capitalized terms used but not defined in this Confirmation shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Guaranty.  All references to Loan Documents herein shall be with respect to Collateral Pool            (the “Collateral Pool”) as further defined in the Master Agreement.

 

B.                                    [Borrower and Fannie Mae have modified the credit facility under the Master Agreement] OR [Additional Borrower has joined into the Master Agreement as a Borrower under Collateral Pool       ] and made certain other changes to the terms and conditions of the Master Agreement pursuant to that certain [                    ] Amendment to Master Agreement dated as of even date herewith (the “[                    ] Amendment”).] OR [Additional Guarantor owns, directly or indirectly, an ownership interest in Borrower and has agreed to join into the Guaranty as a Guarantor thereunder.]
