2.06 Termination of Commitments. The Aggregate Commitments shall be terminated (i) as to the Initial Funding Amount, at 2:00 p.m. on the Closing Date; (ii) as to the Delayed Draw Amount, on the earlier of (A) the date that any portion of the Delayed Draw Amount is disbursed to the Borrower and (B) the expiration of the Availability Period; and (iii) as to any increase in the Aggregate Commitments pursuant toSection 2.14, at 2:00 p.m. on such Increase Effective Date.
2.07 Repayment of Loans. Borrower shall repay to Lenders on the Maturity Date the aggregate principal amount of Loans outstanding on such date.
2.08 Interest. (a) Subject to the provisions ofsubsection (b) below, (i) each Eurodollar Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof for each Interest Period at a rate per annum equal to the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Periodplus the Applicable Rate; and (ii) each Base Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rateplus the Applicable Rate.
(b) (i) If any amount of principal of any Loan is not paid when due (without regard to any applicable grace periods), whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, such amount shall thereafter bear interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws.
(ii) If any amount (other than principal of any Loan) payable by Borrower under any Loan Document is not paid when due (without regard to any applicable grace periods), whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, such amount shall thereafter bear interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws, unless waived by the Required Lenders.
(iii) Upon the request of the Required Lenders, while any Event of Default exists, Borrower shall pay interest on the principal amount of all outstanding Obligations hereunder at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws.
(iv) Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including interest on past due interest) shall be due and payable upon demand.
(c) Interest on each Loan shall be due and payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date applicable thereto and at such other times as may be specified herein.

2.09 Fees. Borrower shall pay (i) the Arranger and Agent for their own respective accounts and (ii) to Agent, for the account of each Lender in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages, fees in the amounts and at the times specified in the Fee Letter. All such fees shall be fully earned when paid and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever.
2.10 Computation of Interest and Fees; Retroactive Adjustments of Applicable Rate. (a) All computations of interest for Base Rate Loans when the Base Rate is determined by Bank of America’s “prime rate” shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed. All other computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed (which results in more fees or interest, as applicable, being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year). Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such portion is paid,provided that any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall, subject toSection 2.12(a), bear interest for one day. Each determination by Agent of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.
(b) If, as a result of any restatement of or other adjustment to the financial statements of the Borrower or for any other reason, the Borrower or the Lenders determine that (i) the Total Leverage Ratio as calculated by the Borrower as of any applicable date was inaccurate and (ii) a proper calculation of the Total Leverage Ratio would have resulted in higher pricing for such period, the Borrower shall immediately and retroactively be obligated to pay to the Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders, promptly on demand by the Agent (or, after the occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to the Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, automatically and without further action by the Agent or any Lender), an amount equal to the excess of the amount of interest and fees that should have been paid for such period over the amount of interest and fees actually paid for such period. This paragraph shall not limit the rights of the Agent or any Lender, as the case may be, underSection 2.08(b) or underArticle IX. The Borrower’s obligations under this paragraph shall survive the termination of the Aggregate Commitments and the repayment of all other Obligations hereunder.
2.11 Evidence of Debt. The Loans made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender and by Agent in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by Agent and each Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the Loans made by Lenders to Borrower and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of Borrower hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. Upon the request of any Lender made through Agent, Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender (through Agent) a Note, which shall evidence such Lender’s Loans in addition to such accounts or records. Each Lender may attach schedules to its Note and endorse thereon the date, Type (if applicable), amount and maturity of its Loans and payments with respect thereto.
37
2.12 Payments Generally; Agent’s Clawback.
(a) General. All payments to be made by Borrower shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by Borrower hereunder shall be made to Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the Administrative Agent’s Office in Dollars and in immediately available funds not later than 2:00 p.m. on the date specified herein. Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its Applicable Percentage (or other applicable share as provided herein) of such payment in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender’s Lending Office. All payments received by Agent after 2:00 p.m. shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. If any payment to be made by Borrower shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be.
(b) (i)Funding by Lenders; Presumption by Agent. Unless Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans (or, in the case of any Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, prior to 12:00 noon on the date of such Borrowing) that such Lender will not make available to Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance withSection 2.02 (or, in the case of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, that such Lender has made such share available in accordance with and at the time required bySection 2.02) and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to Agent, then the applicable Lender and Borrower severally agree to pay to Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to Agent, at (A) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation,plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by Agent in connection with the foregoing and (B) in the case of a payment to be made by Borrower, the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans. If Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to Agent for the same or an overlapping period, Agent shall promptly remit to Borrower the amount of such interest paid by Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Borrowing to Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. Any payment by Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to Agent.
(ii) Payments by Borrower; Presumptions by Agent. Unless Agent shall have received notice from Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to Agent for the account of the Lenders hereunder that Borrower will not make such payment, Agent may assume that Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to Lenders the amount due. In such event, if Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of Lenders severally agrees to repay to Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.
38
A notice of Agent to any Lender or Borrower with respect to any amount owing under thissubsection (b) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.
(c) Failure to Satisfy Conditions Precedent. If any Lender makes available to Agent funds for any Loan to be made by such Lender as provided in the foregoing provisions of thisArticle II, and such funds are not made available to Borrower by Agent because the conditions to the applicable Loan set forth inArticle IV are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, Agent shall return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender, without interest.
(d) Obligations of Lenders Several. The obligations of Lenders hereunder to make Loans and to make payments pursuant toSection 11.04(c) are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan, to fund any such participation or to make any payment underSection 11.04(c) on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan or to make its payment underSection 11.04(c).
(e) Funding Source. Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner.
2.13 Sharing of Payments. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of the Loans made by it, resulting in such Lender’s receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of such Loans and accrued interest thereon greater than itsprorata share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and other amounts owing them,provided that:
(i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and
(ii) the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this Section shall apply).
39
Each Loan Party consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against such Loan Party rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Loan Party in the amount of such participation.
2.14 Increase in Commitments.
(a) Request for Increase. Provided there exists no Default, upon notice to Agent (which shall promptly notify the Lenders), Borrower may from time to time request an increase in the Aggregate Commitments by an amount (for all such requests) not exceeding $50,000,000 in the aggregate;provided that any such request for an increase shall be in a minimum amount of $10,000,000. At the time of sending such notice, Borrower (in consultation with Agent) shall specify the time period within which each Lender is requested to respond (which shall in no event be less than ten (10) Business Days from the date of delivery of such notice to the Lenders).
(b) Lender Elections to Increase. Each Lender shall notify the Agent within such time period whether or not it agrees to increase its Commitment and, if so, whether by an amount equal to, greater than, or less than its Applicable Percentage of such requested increase. Any Lender not responding within such time period shall be deemed to have declined to increase its Commitment.
(c) Notification by Agent; Additional Lenders. The Agent shall notify Borrower and each Lender of the Lenders’ responses to each request made hereunder. To achieve the full amount of a requested increase and subject to the approval of Agent (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), Borrower may also invite additional Eligible Assignees to become Lenders pursuant to a joinder agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Agent and its counsel.
(d) Effective Date and Allocations. If the Aggregate Commitments are increased in accordance with this Section (the amount of any such increase being the “Increase Amount”), Agent and Borrower shall determine the effective date (the “Increase Effective Date”) and the final allocation of such increase. Agent shall promptly notify Borrower and the Lenders of the final allocation of such increase and the Increase Effective Date. If Borrower so requests with respect to any increase, Agent will use reasonable efforts, in cooperation with Borrower, to make the applicable Increase Effective Date the agreed-upon or required date of funding in connection with a Permitted Acquisition to be financed by proceeds of the Increase Amount.
40
(e) Conditions to Effectiveness of Increase. As a condition precedent to such increase:
(i) Borrower shall deliver to Agent at Borrower’s expense, (A) updated appraisals meeting the Appraisal Requirements for each Borrowing Base Property as may be requested by the Agent, (B) documents required underSection 5A.04(h), including Mortgage modifications, and (C) a certificate of each Loan Party dated as of the Increase Effective Date (in sufficient copies for each Lender) signed by a Responsible Officer of such Loan Party (1) certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by such Loan Party approving or consenting to such increase, and (2) in the case of Borrower, certifying that, before and after giving effect to such increase, (x) the representations and warranties contained inArticle VI and the other Loan Documents are true and correct on and as of the Increase Effective Date, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they are true and correct as of such earlier date, and except that for purposes of thisSection 2.14, the representations and warranties contained insubsections (a) and(b) ofSection 6.05 shall be deemed to refer to the most recent statements furnished pursuant tosubsections (a) and(b), respectively, ofSection 7.01, and (y) no Default exists;
(ii) Borrower shall prepay any Loans outstanding on the Increase Effective Date (and pay any additional amounts required pursuant toSection 3.05) to the extent necessary to keep the outstanding Loans ratable with any revised Applicable Percentages arising from any nonratable increase in the Commitments under this Section;
(iii) no Default shall exist or result therefrom;
(iv) after giving effect to (A) the increase and the concurrent disbursement of Loans pursuant tosubsection (f) below, and (B) the addition of Borrowing Base Properties in connection with the increase, the Outstanding Amount of all Loans shall not exceed the Synthetic DSCR Principal Amount, as demonstrated in a certificate executed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower and delivered to Agent, such certificate to contain calculations prepared in detail reasonably acceptable to the Agent and include such supporting materials as the Agent reasonably requires;
(v) the Administrative Agent shall have received all of the items required by the definition of “Eligible Property” and bySection 5A.04 with respect to each Property that is to be added as a Borrowing Base Property in connection with the increase, and the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders shall have determined that each such Property qualifies as an Eligible Property; and
(vi) 100% of the Equity Interests in each Subsidiary that owns or leases a Property that has been added as a Borrowing Base Property in connection with the increase shall have been pledged to Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, as security for the Obligations.

On each Increase Effective Date, the Borrower shall be required to draw the entire amount of any Increase Amount made pursuant to this Section, and each Lender that has agreed to increase its Commitment pursuant to this Section (including Eligible Assignees that have become Lenders pursuant toSection 2.14(c)) shall, subject to the satisfaction of all conditions set forth inSection 2.14(e), be required to fund its allocated pro rata share of such Increase Amount.
(g) Conflicting Provisions. This Section shall supersede any provisions inSections 2.13 or11.01 to the contrary.
41
2.15 Extension of Maturity Date.
(a) Requests for Extension. Borrower may, by notice to Agent (who shall promptly notify the Lenders), extend the Maturity Date for a year from the Maturity Date not earlier than the date that is 90 days prior to the Maturity Date and not later than the date that is 30 days prior to the Maturity Date.
(b) Minimum Extension Requirement. If Borrower has made a request pursuant toSection 2.15(a) to extend the Maturity Date, then, effective as of the Maturity Date, the Maturity Date of each Lender shall be extended to the date falling one year after the Maturity Date (except that, if such date is not a Business Day, such Maturity Date as so extended shall be the next preceding Business Day).
(c) Conditions to Effectiveness of Extensions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the extension of the Maturity Date pursuant to this Section shall not be effective with respect to any Lender unless:
(i) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such extension and after giving effect thereto;
(ii) the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date of such extension and after giving effect thereto, as though made on and as of such date (or, if any such representation or warranty is expressly stated to have been made as of a specific date, as of such specific date),provided that the representations and warranties contained insubsections (a) and(b) ofSection 6.05 shall be deemed to refer to the most recent financial statements furnished pursuant toclauses (a) and(b), respectively, ofSection 7.01;
(iii) Borrower shall have delivered to Agent a certificate certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by Borrower and Guarantors approving or consenting to such extension (which such resolutions may be certified in, and attached to, the certificate certifying to resolutions of Borrower and Guarantors delivered on or prior to the Closing Date pursuant toSection 4.01(a)(iii)); and
(iv) Borrower shall have paid to Agent for the account of each Lender in accordance with its Applicable Percentage a fee equal to 0.350%times the Outstanding Amount as of the date of such extension.

2.16 Cash Collateral.
(a) Triggering Event. If on any date of measurement underSection 7.12(e) the Debt Service Coverage Ratio is less than 1.50 to 1.00, all Cash Flow from Borrowing Base Properties and Mortgaged Properties in excess of current interest due on Loans under this Agreement shall thereafter be delivered to Agent as Cash Collateral. As used in this Section 2.16(a), “Cash Flow” means, for any fiscal quarter of the Borrower, an amount equal to (a) the sum of the gross revenues for the Borrowing Base Properties and Mortgaged Properties for such quarter received in the ordinary course of business (excluding pre-paid rents and revenues and security deposits except to the extent applied in satisfaction of tenants’ obligations for rent),minus (b) all operating expenses incurred with respect to the Borrowing Base Properties and Mortgaged Properties for such quarter (including an appropriate accrual for property taxes and insurance),minus (c) the amount of management fees actually incurred with respect to the Borrowing Base Properties and Mortgaged Properties for such quarter (to the extent not duplicative of deduction already taken in the calculation of Cash Flow hereunder),minus (d) actual capital expenses allocable to the Borrowing Base Properties and Mortgaged Properties for such quarter,times 4. At any time that Cash Collateral is required to be delivered to Agent hereunder, Cash Flow shall be delivered quarterly to Agent within five (5) Business Days of the earlier of (i) the date that a Compliance Certificate is delivered to Agent for any quarter, and (ii) the date by which Borrower is required to deliver a Compliance Certificate to Agent for any quarter pursuant toSection 7.02(b).
(b) Grant of Security Interest. All Cash Collateral shall be maintained in blocked, non-interest bearing deposit accounts at Bank of America. The Borrower hereby grants to (and subjects to the control of) the Agent, for the benefit of the Agent and the other Secured Parties, and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such cash, deposit accounts and all balances therein, and all other property so provided as collateral pursuant hereto, and in all proceeds of the foregoing, all as security for the Obligations. If at any time the Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Agent as herein provided, the Borrower will, promptly upon demand by the Agent, pay or provide to the Agent additional Cash Collateral in a corresponding amount that is not subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Agent.
(c) Application. At any time that Cash Collateral is held by the Agent, the Borrower may direct that such Cash Collateral be applied to a prepayment of Loans and, notwithstanding the terms ofSection 2.05(c), no prepayment fee shall apply.
(d) Release. Cash Collateral shall be released at such time as the Borrower has achieved a Debt Service Coverage Ratio of at least 1.50 to 1.00 as of the end of two consecutive fiscal quarters, based on the Compliance Certificates delivered to Agent for such fiscal quarters;provided,however, that Cash Collateral shall not be released during the continuance of a Default or Event of Default.
2.17 Defaulting Lenders.
(a) Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as that Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable Law:
(i)Waivers and Amendments. That Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth inSection 11.01.
43
(ii)Reallocation of Payments. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Agent for the account of that Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant toArticle IX or otherwise, and including any amounts made available to the Agent by that Defaulting Lender pursuant toSection 11.08), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Agent as follows:first, to the payment of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the Agent hereunder;second, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Agent;third, if so determined by the Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released in order to satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement;fourth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement;fifth, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; andsixth, to that Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction;provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share and (y) such Loans were made at a time when the conditions set forth inSection 4.02 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of all non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of that Defaulting Lender. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender pursuant to thisSection 2.17(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by that Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.
(iii)Replacement of Lenders. During any period in which there is a Defaulting Lender, the Borrower may, pursuant toSection 11.13, require such Defaulting Lender to assign and delegate all of its interest, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations.
(b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrower and the Agent agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender (or if a Defaulting Lender takes such action necessary so that it would no longer be characterized as a Defaulting Lender), the Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein, that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Applicable Percentages, whereupon that Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

ARTICLE III.
TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY
TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY
3.01 Taxes.
(a) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by Borrower to or on account of any obligation of Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes,provided that if Borrower shall be required by any applicable law to deduct any Indemnified Taxes (including any Other Taxes) from such payments, then, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section), Agent or Lender, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) Borrower shall make such deductions, and (iii) Borrower shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.
(b) Payment of Other Taxes by Borrower. Without limiting the provisions of subsection (a) above, Borrower shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.
(c) Indemnification by Borrower. Borrower shall indemnify Agent and each Lender, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) paid by Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to Agent), or by Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(d) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by Borrower to a Governmental Authority, Borrower shall deliver to Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Agent.
(e) Status of Lenders. Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which Borrower is resident for tax purposes, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall deliver to Borrower (with a copy to Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by Borrower or Agent (but in no event later than the date on which any amounts are payable under this Agreement), such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if requested by Borrower or Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by Borrower or Agent as will enable Borrower or Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.
45
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that Borrower is resident for tax purposes in the United States, any Foreign Lender shall deliver to Borrower and Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of Borrower or Agent, but only if such Foreign Lender is legally entitled to do so), whichever of the following is applicable:
(i) two duly completed and properly executed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States and the country of such Foreign Lender are parties,
(ii) two duly completed and properly executed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI,
(iii) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of Borrower within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (y) two duly completed and properly executed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, or
(iv) any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States Federal withholding tax duly completed and properly executed together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit Borrower to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.
(f) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If Agent or any Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by Borrower or with respect to which Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall pay to Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by Borrower under this Section with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund),provided that Borrower, upon the request of Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to Agent or such Lender in the event Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This subsection shall not be construed to require Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to Borrower or any other Person.
46
3.02 Illegality. If any Lender determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Eurodollar Rate Loans, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurodollar Rate, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars in the London interbank market, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to Borrower through Agent, any obligation of such Lender to make or continue Eurodollar Rate Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended until such Lender notifies Agent and Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, Borrower shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to Agent), prepay or, if applicable, convert all Eurodollar Rate Loans of such Lender to Base Rate Loans, either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loans. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted and all amounts due underSection 3.05 in accordance with the terms thereof due to such prepayment or conversion.
3.03 Inability to Determine Rates. If the Required Lenders determine in connection with any request for a Eurodollar Rate Loan or a conversion to or continuation thereof that (a) Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank eurodollar market for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such Eurodollar Rate Loan, (b) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Eurodollar Base Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan, or (c) the Eurodollar Base Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Loan, Agent will promptly so notify Borrower and each Lender. Thereafter, the obligation of Lenders to make or maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended until Agent (upon the instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein.
3.04 Increased Costs.
(a)Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall:
(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement reflected in the Eurodollar Rate);
(ii) subject any Lender to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement or any Eurodollar Rate Loan made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender in respect thereof (except for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes covered bySection 3.01 and the imposition of, or any change in the rate of, any Excluded Tax payable by such Lender); or
47
(iii) impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Rate Loans made by such Lender;
and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Eurodollar Rate Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender, Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.
(b) Capital Requirements. If any Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or any Lending Office of such Lender or such Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by such Lender, to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.
(c) Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in subsection (a) or (b) of this Section and delivered to Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.
(d) Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation,provided that Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine months prior to the date that such Lender notifies Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).
3.05 Compensation for Losses. Upon demand of any Lender (with a copy to Agent) from time to time, Borrower shall promptly compensate such Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense incurred by it as a result of:
(a) any continuation, conversion, payment or prepayment of any Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise); or
48
(b) any failure by Borrower (for a reason other than the failure of such Lender to make a Loan) to prepay, borrow, continue or convert any Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on the date or in the amount notified by Borrower; or
(c) any assignment of a Eurodollar Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period therefore as a result of a request for the Borrower pursuant toSection 11.13;
including any loss of anticipated profits and any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Loan or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained. Borrower shall also pay any customary administrative fees charged by such Lender in connection with the foregoing. For purposes of calculating amounts payable by Borrower to Lenders under thisSection 3.05, each Lender shall be deemed to have funded each Eurodollar Rate Loan made by it at the Eurodollar Base Rate used in determining the Eurodollar Rate for such Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the London interbank eurodollar market for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such Eurodollar Rate Loan was in fact so funded.
3.06 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement Lenders.
(a) Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation underSection 3.04, or Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant toSection 3.01, or if any Lender gives a notice pursuant toSection 3.02, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant toSection 3.01 or3.04, as the case may be, in the future, or eliminate the need for the notice pursuant toSection 3.02, as applicable, and (ii) in each case, would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.
(b) Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation underSection 3.04, or if Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant toSection 3.01, Borrower may replace such Lender in accordance withSection 11.13.
3.07 Survival. All of Borrower’s obligations under thisArticle III shall survive termination of the Aggregate Commitments and repayment of all other Obligations hereunder.

CSI GUARANTY

CSI hereby unconditionally, absolutely, continually and irrevocably guarantees to Agent, for the benefit of the Benefited Parties, the payment and performance in full of (a) Borrower’s prompt payment in full, when due or declared due and at all such times, of all Obligations and all other amounts pursuant to the terms hereof, the Notes, and all other Loan Documents and all Secured Cash Management Agreements and Secured Hedge Agreements heretofore, now or at any time or times hereafter owing, arising, due or payable from Borrower to any one or more of the Benefited Parties, including without limitation principal, interest, premium or fee (including, but not limited to, loan fees and attorneys’ fees and expenses); and (b) Borrower’s prompt, full and faithful performance, observance and discharge of each and every agreement, undertaking, covenant and provision to be performed, observed or discharged by Borrower hereunder and under all other Loan Documents (collectively, the “Guarantor’s Obligations”).
5.02 Payment. If Borrower shall default in payment or performance of any of the Obligations, whether principal, interest, premium, fee (including, but not limited to, loan fees and attorneys’ fees and expenses) or otherwise, when and as the same shall become due, whether according to the terms hereof, by acceleration, or otherwise, or upon the occurrence of any Event of Default hereunder that has not been cured or waived, then CSI shall, upon demand thereof by Agent or its successors or assigns as of the date of such demand, (i) fully pay to Agent, for the benefit of the Benefited Parties, an amount equal to all of the Guarantor’s Obligations then due and owing or declared to be due and owing, including for this purpose, in the event of any Event of Default underSection 9.01(f) hereof (irrespective of the applicability of any restriction on acceleration or other action as against any other Loan Party under any Debtor Relief Laws), the entire outstanding or accrued amount of all Obligations or (ii) perform such Guarantor’s Obligations, as applicable.

5.04 Reinstatement.

54
5.05 Waiver; Subrogation.
(a) CSI hereby waives notice of the following events or occurrences: (i) the Lenders heretofore, now or from time to time hereafter making Loans and otherwise loaning monies or giving or extending credit to or for the benefit of Borrower, whether pursuant to this Agreement or the Notes or any other Loan Document or any amendments, modifications, or supplements thereto, or replacements or extensions thereof; (ii) the Benefited Parties or Borrower heretofore, now or at any time hereafter, obtaining, amending, substituting for, releasing, waiving or modifying this Agreement, the Notes or any other Loan Documents; (iii) presentment, demand, default, non-payment, partial payment and protest; (iv) any Benefited Party heretofore, now or at any time hereafter granting to Borrower (or any other party liable to the Benefited Parties on account of Borrower’s Obligations) or to any other Guarantor any indulgence or extensions of time of payment of Borrower’s Obligations, and (v) any Benefited Party heretofore, now or at any time hereafter accepting from Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person, any partial payment or payments on account of Borrower’s Obligations or any collateral securing the payment thereof or Agent settling, subordinating, compromising, discharging or releasing the same. CSI agrees that each Benefited Party may heretofore, now or at any time hereafter do any or all of the foregoing in such manner, upon such terms and at such times as each Benefited Party, in its sole and absolute discretion, deems advisable, without in any way or respect impairing, affecting, reducing or releasing CSI from its Guarantor’s Obligations, and CSI hereby consents to each and all of the foregoing events or occurrences.
(b) CSI hereby agrees that payment or performance by CSI of the Guarantee made under thisArticle V may be enforced by Agent on behalf of the Benefited Parties upon demand by Agent to CSI without Agent being required, and CSI expressly waives any right it may have to require Agent, to (i) prosecute collection or seek to enforce or resort to any remedies against Borrower or any other Guarantor, or (ii) seek to enforce or resort to any remedies with respect to any security interests, Liens or encumbrances granted to Agent by Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person on account of Borrower’s Obligations or any Guarantee thereof, IT BEING EXPRESSLY UNDERSTOOD, ACKNOWLEDGED AND AGREED TO BY CSI THAT DEMAND UNDER THISARTICLE V MAY BE MADE BY AGENT, AND THE PROVISIONS HEREOF ENFORCED BY AGENT, EFFECTIVE AS OF THE FIRST DATE ANY EVENT OF DEFAULT OCCURS AND IS CONTINUING UNDER THIS AGREEMENT. Neither Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to protect, secure or insure any of the foregoing security interests, Liens or encumbrances on the properties or interests in properties subject thereto.
(c) CSI further agrees that it shall have no right of subrogation (unless and until the occurrence of the Facility Termination Date), reimbursement or indemnity, nor any right of recourse to security for Borrower’s Obligations. This agreement is expressly intended to prevent the existence of any claim in respect to such reimbursement by CSI against the estate of Borrower within the meaning of Section 101 of the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, and to prevent CSI from constituting a creditor of Borrower in respect of such reimbursement within the meaning of Section 547(b) of the Bankruptcy Code of the United States in the event of a subsequent case involving Borrower. If an amount shall be paid to CSI on account of such subrogation rights at any time prior to termination of this Agreement in accordance with the provisions herein, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Benefited Parties and shall forthwith be paid to Agent, for the benefit of the Benefited Parties, to be credited and applied upon Guarantor’s Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
55
5.06 Waiver of Set-Off. CSI waives any right to assert against Agent or any Lender as a defense, counterclaim, set-off, recoupment or cross claim in respect of the Guarantor’s Obligations, any defense (legal or equitable) or other claim which CSI may now or at any time hereafter have against Borrower or the Benefited Parties without waiving any additional defenses, set-offs, counterclaims or other claims otherwise available to CSI. If at any time hereafter the Benefited Parties employ counsel for advice or other representation to enforce any of the Guarantor’s Obligations that arise out of an Event of Default, then, in any of the foregoing events, all of the reasonable attorneys’ fees arising from such services and all expenses, costs and charges in any way or respect arising in connection therewith or relating thereto shall be paid by CSI to Agent, for the benefit of the Benefited Parties, on demand.

Notwithstanding the foregoing failures, and provided that on the Closing Date such Properties otherwise satisfy all of the other requirements herein necessary to constitute Borrowing Base Properties, such Properties shall be treated as Borrowing Base Properties on the Closing Date. Borrower shall deliver to Agent (i) the surveys referenced inSection 7.16, on the terms set forth in that Section, (ii) within five (5) Business Days of the Closing Date, a title commitment for the Property referred to onSchedule 5A.04(d) as Methodist Professional Center I, acceptable to the Agent and otherwise conforming to the requirements in this Agreement with respect to title commitments, and (iii) within ninety (90) days of the Closing Date, a consent

If Borrower fails to (1) deliver any such consent and acknowledgment to Agent within ninety (90) days of the Closing Date, or (2) fails to comply withSection 7.16, or (3) fails to deliver an acceptable title commitment for the Property referred to onSchedule 5A.04(d) as Methodist Professional Center I within five (5) Business Days of the Closing Date (provided,however, that if a title commitment is delivered within five (5) Business Days of the Closing Date but includes exceptions or other matters of title that are objectionable to Agent, Borrower shall have until the date that is forty-five (45) days from the Closing Date to deliver a revised or replacement commitment which does not contain such objectionable exceptions or matters of title and is otherwise acceptable to Agent), any such Property with respect to which such a failure occurs shall immediately and automatically be excluded from the Borrowing Base, and Borrower shall, for each such Property that has been so excluded from the Borrowing Base, within thirty (30) days of the failure giving rise to such exclusion, either (i) make a principal payment to Agent equal to the allocable principal amount for such Property set forth onSchedule 5A.04(d) and provide to Agent (to the extent of Agent’s request) all of the other items required underSection 5A.04(d) to release a Borrowing Base Property from the Borrowing Base (other than the payment required under clause (i) appearing in such Section), together with reimbursement for all related costs and expenses incurred by Agent in connection with such release, or (ii) add to the Borrowing Base a substitute Property that will individually support a Synthetic DSCR Principal Amount that is not less than the allocable principal amount set forth onSchedule 5A.04(d) for the Property being excluded from the Borrowing Base. Any such substitute Property must meet all of the requirements hereunder to constitute a Borrowing Base Property.
(f) In the event that there shall be made any Additions or Enhancements to a Mortgaged Property, which Additions or Enhancements have a cost or value (as evidenced in writing in a form and manner satisfactory to the Agent) in excess of the lesser of (i) $2,500,000 or (ii) 20% of the Appraised Value (without giving effect to such Additions or Enhancements) of such Mortgaged Property, the Borrower shall deliver to the Agent, not later than 30 Business Days after completion of such Addition or Enhancement, (A)(i) if the Additions or Enhancements include additional real property (either leased or in fee), an amended legal description of such Mortgaged Property including such additional real property, and a modification to the related Mortgage amending the legal description of such Mortgaged Property to include such additional real property, (ii) if requested by Agent, a new appraisal meeting the Appraisal Requirements for such Mortgaged Property, and (iii) a new or updated survey with respect to such Mortgaged Property if either the Additions or Enhancements include additional real property (either leased or in fee) or the footprint of the improvements located thereon changes, (B) an endorsement to the existing title insurance policy covering such Mortgaged Property adding the Additions or Enhancements to the description of the insured property (if the Additions or Enhancements include additional real property), increasing the amount of such title insurance to reflect the increase in value and updating the time and date of such policy to the time and date of recording of the modification to the related Mortgage described in (A) above and reflecting no title exceptions other than Permitted Encumbrances.
61
(g) For purposes of calculating the Appraised Value of the Borrowing Base Properties, the Borrower shall comply with the Appraisal Requirements set forth inSchedule 5A.04(c) attached hereto. The Lenders agree that the Agent and the Borrower may from time to time modify or amend the Appraisal Requirements so long as such modification or amendment does not adversely affect the interest of the Lenders hereunder.
(h) Prior to any increase, through the operation ofSection 2.14, in the Outstanding Amount that would cause the Outstanding Amount, after giving pro forma effect to such increase, to exceed the stated principal amount secured by any Mortgage, the Borrower (i) shall cause to be recorded Mortgage modifications increasing the maximum amount secured under such Mortgage to such increased amount;provided,however, that, with respect to any Mortgage filed in a state with significant tax or recording costs or other expenses, then, in the Agent’s sole discretion, the Mortgage modification may provide for a lesser maximum principal amount secured so long as such maximum principal amount secured is at least equal to 120% of the Appraised Value of the property subject to such Mortgage, (ii) shall obtain either (A) new title insurance policies insuring such Mortgages reflecting the appropriate coverage and insuring the first priority of such Mortgage, subject only to Permitted Encumbrances, or (B) endorsements to each of the original title insurance policies insuring such Mortgages, increasing the amount of coverage as appropriate, updating the time and date of coverage to the date and time of recording such Mortgage modification and insuring the continued first priority of such Mortgage, subject only to the Permitted Encumbrances, and (iii) shall deliver to the Agent such other documents (including title endorsements and Grantor Authority Documents) as may be reasonably required by the Agent and the title insurer.

(i)Minimum Amounts.
(A) in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and
93
(B) in any case not described in subsection (b)(i)(A) of this Section, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment, determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date, shall not be less than $5,000,000 unless each of the Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed);provided,however, that concurrent assignments to members of an Assignee Group and concurrent assignments from members of an Assignee Group to a single Eligible Assignee (or to an Eligible Assignee and members of its Assignee Group) will be treated as a single assignment for purposes of determining whether such minimum amount has been met.
(ii)Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loans or the Commitment assigned.
(iii)Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by subsection (b)(i)(B) of this Section and, in addition:

(B) the consent of the Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required if such assignment is to a Person that is not a Lender, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender.
(iv)Assignment and Assumption. The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee in the amount of $3,500;provided,however, that the Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment. The assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.
(v)No Assignment to Borrower. No such assignment shall be made to the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries.
(vi)No Assignment to Natural Persons. No such assignment shall be made to a natural person.
(c) Register. Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of Borrower, shall maintain at Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and Borrower, Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by each of Borrower at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. In addition, at any time that a request for a consent for a material or substantive change to the Loan Documents is pending, any Lender may request and receive from Agent a copy of the Register
94
Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Agent pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits ofSections 3.01,3.04,3.05, and11.04 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment. Upon request, the Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Note to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with subsection (d) of this Section.
(d) Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person or the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it);provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.
Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement;provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in the first proviso toSection 11.01 that affects such Participant. Subject to subsection (e) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits ofSections 3.01,3.04 and3.05 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits ofSection 11.08 as though it were a Lender,provided such Participant agrees to be subject toSection 2.13 as though it were a Lender.
95
(e) Limitations upon Participant Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment underSection 3.01 or3.04 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with Borrower’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits ofSection 3.01 unless Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of Borrower, to comply withSection 3.01(e) as though it were a Lender.
(f) Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Note, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank;provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.
(g) Electronic Execution of Assignments. The words “execution”, “signed”, “signature”, and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.
(h) Deemed Consent of Borrower. If the consent of Borrower to an assignment to an Eligible Assignee is required hereunder (including a consent to an assignment which does not meet the minimum assignment threshold specified inclause (i) of the proviso to the first sentence ofSection 11.06(b)), Borrower shall be deemed to have given its consent five Business Days after the date notice thereof has been delivered to Borrower by the assigning Lender (through Agent) unless such consent is expressly refused by Borrower prior to such fifth Business Day.
11.07 Treatment of Certain Information; Confidentiality. Each of Agent and Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and representatives (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority, purporting to have jurisdiction over it (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative
96
transaction relating to Borrower and its obligations, (g) with the consent of CSI or Borrower or (h) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (y) becomes available to Agent, any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than CSI or Borrower. For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from CSI or Borrower or any Subsidiary relating to CSI, Borrower or any Subsidiary or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by CSI, Borrower or any Subsidiary,provided that, in the case of information received from CSI, Borrower or any Subsidiary after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information. Each of Agent and the Lenders acknowledges that (a) the Information may include material non-public information concerning CSI, Borrower or a Subsidiary, as the case may be, (b) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public information and (c) it will handle such material non-public information in accordance with applicable Law, including United States Federal and state securities Laws.
11.08 Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, after obtaining the prior written consent of the Agent, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of Borrower or any other Loan Party against any and all of the obligations of Borrower or such Loan Party now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender or any such Affiliate, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of Borrower or such Loan Party may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of such Lender different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness. The rights of each Lender and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender or its Affiliates may have. Each Lender agrees to notify Borrower and Agent promptly after any such setoff and application,provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. Notwithstanding anything in any Loan Document to the contrary, at any time a property located within the State of California, State of Washington, State of Oregon or any other state with a “one-action” rule is indentified as a Borrowing Base Property hereunder, any set-off in violation of thisSection 11.08 shall be deemed invalid and such funds shall be deemed held in constructive trust for the benefit of the Borrower.
11.09 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable Law (the “Maximum Rate”). If Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.
97
11.10 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided inSection 4.01, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall become effective when they shall have been executed by Agent and when Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by telecopy shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
11.11 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by Agent and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default at the time of any Borrowing, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied.
11.12 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.
11.13 Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation underSection 3.04, or if Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant toSection 3.01, or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, then, in each case, Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by,Section 11.06), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment),provided that:
(a) Borrower shall have paid to Agent the assignment fee specified inSection 11.06(b);
98
(b) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts underSection 3.05) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or Borrower (in the case of all other amounts);
(c) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation underSection 3.04 or payments required to be made pursuant toSection 3.01, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; and
(d) such assignment does not conflict with applicable Laws.
A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PERSON HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.
11.16 No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document), the Borrower and each other Loan Party acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Affiliates’ understanding, that: (i) (A) the arranging and other services regarding this Agreement provided by the Agent and the Arranger are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Borrower and each other Loan Party and their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Agent and the Arranger, on the other hand, (B) each of the Borrower and the other Loan Parties has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate, and (C) the Borrower and each other Loan Party is capable of evaluating, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents; (ii) (A) the Agent and the Arranger each is and has been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any of their respective Affiliates or any other Person and (B) neither the Agent nor Arranger has any obligation to the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any of their respective Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents and (iii) the Agent, the Arranger and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Borrower, the other Loan Parties and their respective Affiliates, and neither the Agent nor Arranger has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any of their respective Affiliates.

Credit Agreement among Cogdell Spencer LP (“Borrower”),
Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent (“Agent”), and
the Lenders party thereto (“Credit Agreement”)
Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent (“Agent”), and
the Lenders party thereto (“Credit Agreement”)
The following is a statement of the appraisal requirements relating to any Property which becomes a Mortgaged Property. Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meaning set forth in the Credit Agreement except that the following terms shall have the following meanings:
“Appraisal” means a report made by a Qualified Appraiser setting forth such Qualified Appraiser’s opinion as to the current market value (based upon modelings of the “income approach”, the “sales approach” and the “cost approach” unless otherwise acceptable to the Agent) of a Property and in form and content reasonably acceptable to the Agent;
“Validation” means a report by a Qualified Appraiser extending an original Appraisal prepared by such Qualified Appraiser of an Eligible Property which validation meets the following conditions: (i) the appraiser continues to be acceptable to the Agent, (ii) the Property has not undergone a significant change since the original Appraisal, and (iii) the original Appraisal is dated within three (3) years of the date of the Validation. A Validation shall contain an opinion as to the current validity of the prior estimate of market value for the subject property. If the Validation concludes that the prior value conclusion is not significantly different from that set forth in the original report, then a new appraisal is not necessary. If the Validation concludes that the prior value is significantly different from that set forth in the original report, then a new appraisal is necessary.
Each Appraisal furnished to the Agent must meet the following requirements:
1. The Appraisal must be dated not more than six months prior to the date of delivery to the Agent; or
2. If the Appraisal is dated earlier than six months prior to the date of delivery to the Agent such Appraisal shall be accompanied by a Validation dated within thirty (30) days of delivery to the Agent which Validation shall state that the then fair market value of the Property is not significantly different from that set forth in the original Appraisal.
Schedule 5A.04(c)

The Agent shall have the right to request (at the Borrower’s expense and subject to satisfactory review and approval of the Agent), after the delivery of the initial Appraisal at the time a Property becomes subject to a Mortgage, a new Appraisal with respect to each Mortgaged Property once during the initial term of the Credit Agreement;provided,however, that a new Appraisal may not be ordered during the six month period immediately preceding the initial Maturity Date under the Credit Agreement andprovided,further, that at any time during the existence and continuance of an Event of Default, a new Appraisal with respect to each Mortgaged Property may be requested by the Agent notwithstanding any previous new Appraisal previously having been obtained with respect to such Property. In addition to the foregoing, if the Borrower has requested an extension of the Maturity Date pursuant toSection 2.15, the Agent shall have the right to request new Appraisals which meet the Appraisal Requirements.
The Borrower may request that the Agent initiate a new Appraisal with respect to any Borrowing Base Property or Mortgaged Property at any time.
All such Appraisals shall be engaged by the Agent (at the expense of the Borrower) and subject to satisfactory review and approval of the Agent.

Nothing herein shall affect the right of Agent to serve process in any manner permitted by law or limit the right of Agent to bring proceedings against any Obligor in any other court or jurisdiction.
14. Execution; Modification. This Agreement has been executed in a number of identical counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original for all purposes and all of which constitute, collectively, one agreement. This Agreement may be amended only by an instrument in writing intended for that purpose executed jointly by an authorized representative of each party hereto.
15.Dispute Resolution.
(a) Arbitration. Except to the extent expressly provided below, any Dispute (as defined below) shall, upon the request of either party, be determined by binding arbitration in accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act, Title 9, United States Code (or if not applicable, the applicable state law), the then-current rules for arbitration of financial services disputes of the American Arbitration Association, or any successor thereof (“AAA”), and the “Special Rules” set forth below. “Dispute” means any controversy, claim or dispute between or among the parties to this Agreement, including any controversy, claim or dispute arising out of or relating to (a) this Agreement, (b) any other Loan Documents, (c) any related agreements or instruments, or (d) the transaction contemplated herein or therein (including any claim based on or arising from an alleged personal injury or business tort). In the event of any inconsistency, the Special Rules shall control. The filing of a court action is not intended to constitute a waiver of the right of any party, including the suing party, thereafter to require submittal of the Dispute to arbitration. Any party to this Agreement may bring an action, including a summary or expedited proceeding, to compel arbitration of any Dispute in any court having jurisdiction over such action. For the purposes of this Dispute Resolution Section only, the terms “party” and “parties” shall include any parent corporation, subsidiary or affiliate of Agent involved in the servicing, management or administration of any obligation described in or evidenced by this Agreement, together with the officers, employees, successors and assigns of each of the foregoing.

(b)Special Rules.
(i) The arbitration shall be conducted in any U.S. state where real or tangible personal property collateral is located, or if there is no such collateral, in the city and county where Agent is located pursuant to its address for notice purposes in this Agreement.
(ii) The arbitration shall be administered by AAA, who will appoint an arbitrator. If AAA is unwilling or unable to administer or legally precluded from administering the arbitration, or if AAA is unwilling or unable to enforce or legally precluded from enforcing any and all provisions of this Dispute Resolution Section, then any party to this Agreement may substitute another arbitration organization that has similar procedures to AAA and that will observe and enforce any and all provisions of this Dispute Resolution Section. All Disputes shall be determined by one arbitrator; however, if the amount in controversy in a Dispute exceeds Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000), upon the request of any party, the Dispute shall be decided by three arbitrators (for purposes of this Agreement, referred to collectively as the “arbitrator”).
(iii) All arbitration hearings will be commenced within ninety (90) days of the demand for arbitration and completed within ninety (90) days from the date of commencement; provided, however, that upon a showing of good cause, the arbitrator shall be permitted to extend the commencement of such hearing for up to an additional sixty (60) days.
(iv) The judgment and the award, if any, of the arbitrator shall be issued within thirty (30) days of the close of the hearing. The arbitrator shall provide a concise written statement setting forth the reasons for the judgment and for the award, if any. The arbitration award, if any, may be submitted to any court having jurisdiction to be confirmed and enforced, and such confirmation and enforcement shall not be subject to arbitration.
(v) The arbitrator will give effect to statutes of limitations and any waivers thereof in determining the disposition of any Dispute and may dismiss one or more claims in the arbitration on the basis that such claim or claims is or are barred. For purposes of the application of the statute of limitations, the service on AAA under applicable AAA rules of a notice of Dispute is the equivalent of the filing of a lawsuit.
(vi) Any dispute concerning this arbitration provision, including any such dispute as to the validity or enforceability of this provision, or whether a Dispute is arbitrable, shall be determined by the arbitrator; provided, however, that the arbitrator shall not be permitted to vary the express provisions of these Special Rules or the Reservations of Rights in subsection (c) below.
(vii) The arbitrator shall have the power to award legal fees and costs pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

(viii) The arbitration will take place on an individual basis without reference to, resort to, or consideration of any form of class or class action.
(c) Reservations of Rights. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to (i) limit the applicability of any otherwise applicable statutes of limitation and any waivers contained in this Agreement, or (ii) apply to or limit the right of Agent (A) to exercise self help remedies such as (but not limited to) setoff, or (B) to foreclose judicially or nonjudicially against any real or personal property collateral, or to exercise judicial or nonjudicial power of sale rights, (C) to obtain from a court provisional or ancillary remedies such as (but not limited to) injunctive relief, writ of possession, prejudgment attachment, or the appointment of a receiver, or (D) to pursue rights against a party to this Agreement in a third-party proceeding in any action brought against Agent in a state, federal or international court, tribunal or hearing body (including actions in specialty courts, such as bankruptcy and patent courts). Agent may exercise the rights set forth in clauses (A) through (D), inclusive, before, during or after the pendency of any arbitration proceeding brought pursuant to this Agreement. Neither the exercise of self help remedies nor the institution or maintenance of an action for foreclosure or provisional or ancillary remedies shall constitute a waiver of the right of any party, including the claimant in any such action, to arbitrate the merits of the Dispute occasioning resort to such remedies. No provision in the Loan Documents regarding submission to jurisdiction and/or venue in any court is intended or shall be construed to be in derogation of the provisions in any Loan Document for arbitration of any Dispute.
(d) Conflicting Provisions for Dispute Resolution. If there is any conflict between the terms, conditions and provisions of this Section and those of any other provision or agreement for arbitration or dispute resolution, the terms, conditions and provisions of this Section shall prevail as to any Dispute arising out of or relating to (i) this Agreement, (ii) any other Loan Document, (iii) any related agreements or instruments, or (iv) the transaction contemplated herein or therein (including any claim based on or arising from an alleged personal injury or business tort). In any other situation, if the resolution of a given Dispute is specifically governed by another provision or agreement for arbitration or dispute resolution, the other provision or agreement shall prevail with respect to said Dispute.
