(b) Investment of Reserve Funds. All Reserve Funds will be deposited in an Eligible Account at an Eligible Institution or invested in “permitted investments” as then defined and required by the Rating Agencies.

Borrower acknowledges and agrees that it will not have the right to direct Lender as to any specific investment of monies in any Reserve Fund. Lender will not be responsible for any losses resulting from investment of monies in any Reserve Fund or for obtaining any specific level or percentage of earnings on such investment. Unless applicable law requires, Lender will not be required to pay Borrower any interest, earnings or profits on any Reserve Funds. Any amounts deposited with Lender under this Article IV will not be trust funds, nor will they operate to reduce the Indebtedness, unless applied by Lender for that purpose pursuant to the terms of this Loan Agreement.

(c) Use of Reserve Funds; No Disbursements during Event of Default. Each Reserve Fund will, except as otherwise provided in this Loan Agreement, be used for the sole purpose of paying, or reimbursing Borrower for payment of, the item(s) for which the applicable Reserve Fund is established. Except as specified in this Loan Agreement, monies in one Reserve Fund will not be used to pay, or reimburse Borrower for, matters for which another Reserve Fund has been established. Lender will not be obligated to make disbursements from any Reserve Fund if any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, then Lender may use any Reserve Fund for the payment or performance of any obligation of Borrower to Lender or otherwise with respect to any Mortgaged Property.

(d) Termination of Reserve Funds. Upon payment in full of the Indebtedness, Lender will pay to Borrower all funds remaining in any Reserve Funds.

(e) Release of Mortgaged Properties.

The amount of each required deposit into the Tax Reserve Fund, the Insurance Reserve Fund and the HOA Reserve Fund must be sufficient to enable Lender to pay the Taxes, Insurance premiums or HOA Fees, as applicable, before the last date upon which the payment may be made without any penalty or interest charge being added with a 10% additional deposit amount with respect to the Insurance Fund.

(c) Adjustments to Reserve Fund Deposits. If at any time the amount of the Tax Reserve Fund, the Insurance Reserve Fund or the HOA Reserve Fund held by Lender for payment of Taxes, Insurance premiums or HOA Fees exceeds the amount reasonably deemed necessary by Lender, then the excess will be credited against future payments into the applicable Reserve Fund. If at any time the amount of the Tax Reserve Fund, the Insurance Reserve Fund or the HOA Reserve Fund is less than the amount reasonably estimated by Lender to be necessary, then Borrower will pay to Lender the amount of the deficiency within 20 days after Notice from Lender.

(d) Delivery of Invoices; Proof of Payment by Borrower. Borrower will promptly deliver to Lender a copy of all notices of, and invoices for, Taxes, Insurance premiums and HOA Fees.

(e) Insufficient Amount in Capital Replacement and Repair Reserve Fund. If Borrower requests disbursement from the Capital Replacement and Repair Reserve Fund for a Capital Replacement or a Priority Repair in an amount that exceeds the amount on deposit in the Capital Replacement and Repair Reserve Fund, then Lender will disburse to Borrower only the amount on deposit in the Capital Replacement and Repair Reserve Fund. Borrower will pay all additional amounts required in connection with any such Capital Replacement or Priority Repair from Borrower’s own funds.

Lender will disburse funds from the Capital Replacement and Repair Reserve Fund no more frequently than once per calendar month, and no disbursement will be made in an amount less than the Capital Replacement and Repair Reserve Fund Disbursement Minimum specified in Article I.

Lender, at its option, may retain a professional inspection engineer or other qualified third party to inspect any Capital Replacement or Priority Repair. If Lender retains such a third party, then it will charge Borrower an amount sufficient to pay all reasonable costs and expenses charged by such third party inspector. Lender may, at its election, either deduct such cost from the Capital Replacement and Repair Reserve Fund or send Borrower a Notice of the amount of such charge, which Borrower must pay within 20 days following its receipt of such Notice.

(iv) If Lender reasonably determines at any time that a Capital Replacement or a Repair is necessary for the proper maintenance of a Mortgaged Property, then Lender will give Notice to Borrower requesting that Borrower obtain and submit to Lender bids for all labor and materials required in connection with such Capital Replacement or Repair. In response, Borrower will submit such bids and a time schedule for completing each Capital Replacement or Repair to Lender within 30 days after Borrower’s receipt of Lender’s Notice. Borrower will perform such Capital Replacement or Repair in conformity with the requirements of this Section 4.04 and then may request reimbursement for such Capital Replacement or Repair in accordance with this Section 4.04.

(h) Adjustments to Reserve Fund Deposits. If the initial term of the Loan is greater than 120 months, then following each of the 120^th and 180^th Payment Dates under the Note, Lender may adjust the amount of the Capital Replacement and Repair Reserve Monthly Deposit based on Lender’s most recent assessment of the physical condition of the Mortgaged Properties and will provide Borrower Notice of this revised Capital Replacement and Repair Reserve Monthly Deposit amount.

If the evidence of a renewal does not include a legible copy of the renewal policy, then Borrower will deliver a legible copy of such renewal policy no later than the earlier of (i) 60 days after the expiration date of the original policy or (ii) the date of any Notice of an insured loss given to Lender under Section 6.10(i).

(h) Compliance With Insurance Requirements. Borrower will comply with all Insurance requirements and will not permit any condition to exist on any Mortgaged Property that would invalidate any part of any Insurance coverage required under this Loan Agreement.

(i) Obligations Upon Casualty: Proof of Loss.

(i) If an insured loss occurs, then Borrower will give immediate written Notice to the Insurance carrier and to Lender.

Loan Agreement – SFR Page 21

(ii) Borrower will promptly restore or repair the Mortgaged Property to the equivalent of its original condition or to a condition approved by Lender (“Restoration”), subject to the limitations of Section 6.09(c)(i).

(iii) Borrower authorizes and appoints Lender as attorney in fact for Borrower to make proof of loss, to adjust and compromise any claims under policies of Property Insurance, to appear in and prosecute any action arising from such Property Insurance policies, to collect and receive the proceeds of Property Insurance, to hold the proceeds of Property Insurance, and to deduct from such proceeds Lender’s expenses incurred in the collection of such proceeds. This power of attorney is coupled with an interest and therefore is irrevocable. However, nothing contained in this Section 6.10 will require Lender to incur any expense or take any action.

(j) Lender’s Options Following a Casualty. Following a casualty, Lender may, at Lender’s option, do any of the following:

(i) Require a “repair or replacement” settlement, in which case the proceeds will be used to reimburse Borrower for the cost of Restoration. If Lender determines to require a repair or replacement settlement and to apply Insurance proceeds to Restoration, Lender will apply the proceeds in accordance with Lender’s then-current policies relating to the Restoration of casualty damage on similar residential properties. If Lender retains a professional inspection engineer or other qualified third party to inspect any Restoration items, Lender may charge Borrower an amount sufficient to pay all reasonable costs and expenses charged by such third-party inspector.

(ii) Require an “actual cash value” settlement, in which case the proceeds may be applied to the payment of the Indebtedness, whether or not then due.

(iii) If, in Lender’s discretion, the cost of Restoration following a casualty will equal or exceed 50% of the Release Amount, then Lender may require Borrower to Transfer the Mortgaged Property to a third-party and pay down the Indebtedness by an amount equal to the Release Amount plus all interest amounts required under the Note in accordance with Section 7.05(b) of this Agreement. If Lender elects to exercise its option under this Section 6.10(j)(iii), then Lender will provide Borrower with Notice that the Mortgaged Property must be Transferred in accordance with Section 7.05(b) no later than 30 days following the date of the Notice.

(k) Borrower’s Rights Following a Casualty. Subject to Section 6.10(j), and provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, following a casualty, Borrower may take the following actions:

(i) If a casualty results in damage to any Mortgaged Property for which the cost of Repairs required to complete the Restoration will be equal to or less than $20,000, Borrower will have the sole right to make proof of loss, adjust and compromise the claim and collect and receive any proceeds directly without the approval or prior consent of Lender so long as the Insurance proceeds are used solely for the Restoration of the applicable Mortgaged Property.

(ii) If a casualty results in damage to any Mortgaged Property for which the cost of Repairs required to complete the Restoration will be more than $20,000, but less than 50% of the Release Amount for the Mortgaged Property, Borrower is authorized to make proof of loss and adjust and compromise the claim without the prior consent of Lender, and Lender will, at its option, hold the applicable Insurance proceeds to be used to reimburse Borrower for the cost of Restoration of the Mortgaged Property.

(iii) If a casualty results in damage to the Mortgaged Property for which the cost of Repairs required to complete the Restoration will be equal to or greater than 50% of the Release Amount for the Mortgaged Property, Borrower must obtain the consent of Lender prior to

Loan Agreement – SFR Page 22

making any proof of loss or adjusting or compromising the claim, and Lender will, at its option, hold the applicable Insurance proceeds to be used to reimburse Borrower for the cost of Restoration of the Mortgaged Property.

(I) Lender’s Succession to Insurance Policies. If any Mortgaged Property is sold at a foreclosure sale or Lender acquires title to a Mortgaged Property, then Lender will automatically succeed to all rights of Borrower in and to any Insurance policies and unearned Insurance premiums and in and to the proceeds resulting from any damage to such Mortgaged Property prior to such sale or acquisition.

(m) Payments After Application of Insurance Proceeds. Unless Lender otherwise agrees in writing, any application of any Insurance proceeds to the Indebtedness will not extend or postpone the due date, or change the amount, of any monthly payments referred to in the Note or Article IV of this Loan Agreement.

(n) Assignment of Insurance Proceeds. Borrower agrees to execute such further evidence of assignment of any Insurance proceeds as Lender may require.

(o) Borrower Acknowledgment of Lender’s Right to Change Insurance Requirements. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that Lender’s Insurance requirements may change from time to time throughout the term of the Indebtedness to include coverage for the kind of risks customarily insured against and in such minimum coverage amounts and maximum deductibles as are generally required by institutional lenders for properties comparable to the Mortgaged Properties.

(p) Blanket Policy. The Insurance coverage required by this Section 6.10 may be effected under a blanket policy or policies covering all the Mortgaged Properties if such blanket policy has been approved in advance by Lender.

6.11 Condemnation.

(a) Borrower’s Obligations Generally. Borrower will promptly notify Lender in writing of any action or proceeding or notice relating to any proposed or actual condemnation or other taking, or conveyance in lieu thereof, of all or any part of any Mortgaged Property, whether direct or indirect (“Condemnation”). Borrower will appear in, and prosecute or defend any action or proceeding relating to any Condemnation unless otherwise directed by Lender in writing. Borrower authorizes and appoints Lender as attorney in fact for Borrower to commence, appear in and prosecute, in Lender’s or Borrower’s name, any action or proceeding relating to any Condemnation and to settle or compromise any claim in connection with any Condemnation, after consultation with Borrower and consistent with commercially reasonable standards of a prudent lender. This power of attorney is coupled with an interest and therefore is irrevocable. However, nothing contained in this Section 6.11(a) will require Lender to incur any expense or take any action. Borrower transfers and assigns to Lender all right, title and interest of Borrower in and to any award or payment with respect to (i) any Condemnation, or any conveyance in lieu of Condemnation, and (ii) any damage to any Mortgaged Property caused by governmental action that does not result in a Condemnation. Borrower agrees to execute such further evidence of assignment of any Condemnation awards or proceeds as Lender may require.

(b) Lender’s Options Following a Condemnation.

(i) Following a Condemnation, Lender may, at Lender’s option, (i) hold the Condemnation award or proceeds to be used to reimburse Borrower for the cost of Restoration of the Mortgaged Property, or (ii) apply the Condemnation award or proceeds to the payment of the Indebtedness, whether or not then due. Unless Lender otherwise agrees in writing, any application of any Condemnation award to the Indebtedness will not extend or postpone the due date, or change the amount, of any monthly payments referred to in the Note or Article IV of this Loan Agreement.

(ii) If, in Lender’s discretion, the cost of Restoration following a Condemnation will exceed 50% of the Release Amount, then Lender may require Borrower to Transfer the Mortgaged

Loan Agreement – SFR Page 23

Property to a third-party and pay down the Indebtedness by an amount equal to the Release Amount plus all interest amounts required under the Note in accordance with Section 7.05(b) of this Agreement.

(iii) If Lender elects to exercise its option under Section 6.11(b)(ii), then Lender will provide Borrower with Notice that the Mortgaged Property must be Transferred in accordance with Section 7.05(b) no later than 30 days following the date of the Notice.

(c) Borrower’s Rights Following a Casualty. Subject to Section 6.11, and provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, then following a Condemnation, Borrower may take the following actions:

(i) If a Condemnation results in proceeds or awards of $20,000 or less, Borrower will have the sole right to make proof of loss, adjust and compromise the claim and collect and receive any proceeds directly without the approval or prior consent of Lender so long as the Insurance proceeds are used solely for the Restoration of the applicable Mortgaged Property.

(ii) If a Condemnation results in proceeds or awards of more than $20,000, but less than 50% of the Release Amount for the Mortgaged Property, Borrower is authorized to make proof of loss and adjust and compromise the claim without the prior consent of Lender, and Lender will, at its option, hold the applicable Insurance proceeds to be used to reimburse Borrower for the cost of Restoration of the applicable Mortgaged Property.

(iii) If a Condemnation results in damage to the Mortgaged Property for which the cost of Repairs required to complete the Restoration will be equal to or greater than 50% of the Release Amount for the Mortgaged Property, Borrower must obtain the consent of Lender prior to making any proof of loss or adjusting or compromising the claim, and Lender will, at its option, hold the applicable Insurance proceeds to be used to reimburse Borrower for the cost of Restoration of the applicable Mortgaged Property

(d) Succession to Condemnation Proceeds. If any Mortgaged Property is sold at a foreclosure sale or Lender acquires title to the Mortgaged Property, then Lender will automatically succeed to all rights of Borrower in and to any Condemnation proceeds and awards prior to such sale or acquisition.

6.12 Environmental Hazards.

(a) Prohibited Activities and Conditions. Borrower will comply with all Hazardous Materials Laws applicable to any Mortgaged Property and will not cause or permit Prohibited Activities or Conditions.

(b) Notice to Lender. Borrower will promptly give Notice to Lender upon the occurrence of any of the following events:

(i) Borrower’s discovery of any Prohibited Activity or Condition.

(ii) Borrower’s receipt of or knowledge of any written complaint, order, notice of violation or other communication from any tenant, Property Manager, Governmental Authority or other Person with regard to present or future alleged Prohibited Activities or Conditions, or any other environmental, health or safety matters affecting the Mortgaged Properties.

(iii) Borrower’s breach of any of its obligations under this Section 6.12.

Any such Notice given by Borrower will not relieve Borrower of, or result in a waiver of, any obligation under this Loan Agreement, the Note or any other Loan Document.

(c) Lender’s Option following a Hazardous Materials Event.

Loan Agreement – SFR Page 24

(i) If notwithstanding Borrower’s obligations under this Section 6.12, Borrower fails to comply with Hazardous Materials Laws applicable to a Mortgaged Property or Prohibited Activities or Conditions exist at a Mortgaged Property (“Hazardous Materials Event”), then Lender may require Borrower to Transfer the Mortgaged Property to a third party and pay down the Indebtedness by an amount equal to the Release Amount plus all interest amounts required under the Note in accordance with Section 7.05(b) of this Agreement.

(ii) If Lender elects to exercise its option under Section 6.12(c)(i), then Lender will provide Borrower with Notice that the Mortgaged Property must be Transferred in accordance with Section 7.05(b) no later than 30 days following the date of the Notice.

(d) Environmental Inspections, Tests and Audits. Borrower will pay promptly the costs of any environmental inspections, tests or audits, a purpose of which is to identify the extent or cause of or potential for a Prohibited Activity or Condition (“Environmental Inspections”), required by Lender in connection with any foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure, or as a condition of Lender’s consent to any Transfer under Article VII, or required by Lender following a determination by Lender that Prohibited Activities or Conditions may exist. Any such costs incurred by Lender (including Attorneys’ Fees and Costs and the costs of technical consultants whether incurred in connection with any judicial or administrative process or otherwise) that Borrower fails to pay promptly will become an additional part of the Indebtedness as provided in Section 8.02. As long as: (i) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (ii) Borrower has actually paid for or reimbursed Lender for all costs of any such Environmental Inspections performed or required by Lender, and (iii) Lender is not prohibited by law, contract or otherwise from doing so, Lender will make available to Borrower, without representation of any kind, copies of Environmental Inspections prepared by third parties and delivered to Lender. Lender reserves the right, and Borrower expressly authorizes Lender, to make available to any party, including any prospective bidder at a foreclosure sale of the Mortgaged Property, the results of any Environmental Inspections made by or for Lender with respect to the Mortgaged Property. Borrower consents to Lender notifying any party (either as part of a notice of sale or otherwise) of the results of any Environmental Inspections made by or for Lender. Borrower acknowledges that Lender cannot control or otherwise ensure the truthfulness or accuracy of the results of any Environmental Inspections and that the release of such results to prospective bidders at a foreclosure sale of the Mortgaged Property may have a material and adverse effect upon the amount that a party may bid at such sale. Borrower agrees that Lender will have no liability whatsoever as a result of delivering the results of any Environmental Inspections made by or for Lender to any third party, and Borrower releases and forever discharges Lender from any and all claims, damages or causes of action arising out of, connected with or incidental to the results of the delivery of any Environmental Inspections made by or for Lender.

(e) Remedial Work. If any investigation, site monitoring, containment, clean-up, Restoration or other remedial work (“Remedial Work”) is necessary to comply with any Hazardous Materials Law or order of any Governmental Authority that has or acquires jurisdiction over the Mortgaged Property or the use, operation or improvement of the Mortgaged Property, or is otherwise required by Lender as a consequence of any Prohibited Activity or Condition or to prevent the occurrence of a Prohibited Activity or Condition, then Borrower will, by the earlier of (i) the applicable deadline required by Hazardous Materials Law, or (ii) 30 days after Notice from Lender demanding such action, begin performing the Remedial Work, and thereafter diligently prosecute it to completion, and must in any event complete the work by the time required by applicable Hazardous Materials Law. If Borrower fails to begin on a timely basis or diligently prosecute any required Remedial Work, then Lender may, at its option, cause the Remedial Work to be completed, in which case Borrower will reimburse Lender on demand for the cost of doing so. Any reimbursement due from Borrower to Lender will become part of the Indebtedness as provided in Section 8.02.

(g) Borrower Contest of Order. Notwithstanding Section 6.12(e), Borrower may contest the order of any Governmental Authority in good faith through appropriate proceedings, provided that (i) Borrower has demonstrated to Lender’s satisfaction that any delay in completing Remedial Work pending the outcome of such proceedings would not (A) result in damage to the Mortgaged

Loan Agreement – SFR Page 25

Property or to persons who use or occupy the Improvements or (B) otherwise impair Lender’s interest under this Loan Agreement, and (ii) if any delay in completing the Remedial Work results in a Lien against the Mortgaged Property, Borrower must promptly furnish to Lender a bond or other security satisfactory to Lender in an amount not less than 150% of the claim that underlies the Lien.

Notwithstanding one or more partial foreclosures, the collateral for the Loan will remain subject to the Security Instruments and the other Loan Documents to secure payment of the sums secured by the Loan Documents and not previously recovered.

(b) During the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender will have the right from time to time to sever the Note and the other Loan Documents into one or more separate notes, Loan Documents and other security documents in such denominations as Lender will determine for purposes of evidencing and enforcing its rights and remedies provided under the Loan Documents.

9.02 Indemnity.

(a) General Indemnity. Borrower agrees to indemnify, hold harmless and defend Lender, including any custodian, trustee and other fiduciaries who hold or have held a full or partial interest in the Loan for the benefit of third parties, any prior owner or holder of the Note, the Loan Servicer, any prior Loan Servicer, the officers, directors, shareholders, partners, employees and trustees of each of the foregoing, and the heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns of each of the foregoing (collectively, “Indemnitees”) against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, and expenses, including Attorneys’ Fees and Costs, which may be imposed or incurred by any of them directly or indirectly arising out of, or in any way relating to, or as a result of: (i) any failure of any Mortgaged Property to comply with the laws, regulations, ordinances, codes or decrees of any Governmental Authority, including those pertaining to the Americans with Disabilities Act, zoning, occupancy and subdivision of real property, (ii) failure of Borrower or any Borrower Principal to comply with the Economic Sanction Laws or AML Laws, or (iii) any obligation of Borrower under any Lease, and (iv) any accident, injury or death to any natural person on any Mortgaged Property or any damage to personal property located on any Mortgaged Property, except that no such party will be indemnified from liability for any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses arising out of the willful misconduct or gross negligence of such party.

THIS INDEMNITY WILL SURVIVE ANY TERMINATION, SATISFACTION OR FORECLOSURE OF THE SECURITY INSTRUMENT.

(d) Selection and Direction of Counsel. Counsel selected by Borrower to defend Indemnitees will be subject to the approval of those Indemnitees. In any circumstances in which the indemnity under this Article IX applies, Lender may employ its own legal counsel and consultants to prosecute, defend or negotiate any claim or legal or administrative proceeding and Lender, with the prior written consent of Borrower (which will not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) may settle or compromise any action or legal or administrative proceeding. However, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, or the interests of Borrower and Lender are in conflict, as determined by Lender, Lender will permit Borrower to undertake the actions referenced in this Article IX so long as Lender approves such action, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Borrower will reimburse Lender upon demand for all costs and expenses incurred by Lender, including all costs of settlements entered into in good faith, consultants’ fees and Attorneys’ Fees and Costs.

(e) Settlement or Compromise of Claims. Borrower will not, without the prior written consent of those Indemnitees who are named as parties to a claim or legal or administrative proceeding (“Claim”), settle or compromise the Claim if the settlement (i) results in the entry of any judgment that does not include as an unconditional term the delivery by the claimant or plaintiff to Lender of a written release of those Indemnitees, satisfactory in form and substance to Lender, or (ii) may materially and adversely affect Lender, as determined by Lender.

(f) Effect of Changes to Loan on Indemnification Obligations. Borrower’s obligation to indemnify the Indemnitees will not be limited or impaired by any of the following, or by any failure of Borrower or any Guarantor to receive notice of or consideration for any of the following:

(i) Any amendment or modification of any Loan Document.

(ii) Any extensions of time for performance required by any Loan Document.

(iii) Any provision in any of the Loan Documents limiting Lender’s recourse to property securing the Indebtedness, or limiting the personal liability of Borrower or any other party for payment of all or any part of the Indebtedness.

(iv) The accuracy or inaccuracy of any representations and warranties made by Borrower under any of the Loan Documents.

Loan Agreement – SFR Page 43

(v) The release of Borrower or any other Person, by Lender or by operation of law, from performance of any obligation under any Loan Document.

(vi) The release or substitution in whole or in part of any security for the Indebtedness.

(vii) Lender’s failure to properly perfect any Lien or security interest given as security for the Indebtedness.

(g) Payments by Borrower. Borrower will, at its own cost and expense, do all of the following:

(iii) Reimburse Indemnitees for any and all expenses, including Attorneys’ Fees and Costs, paid or incurred in connection with the enforcement by Indemnitees of their rights under this Article IX, or in monitoring and participating in any legal or administrative proceeding.

(h) Other Obligations. The provisions of this Article IX will be in addition to any and all other obligations and liabilities that Borrower may have under applicable law or under other Loan Documents, and each Indemnitee will be entitled to indemnification under this Article IX without regard to whether Lender or that Indemnitee has exercised any rights against the Mortgaged Properties or any of them or any other security, pursued any rights against any Guarantor, or pursued any other rights available under the Loan Documents or applicable law. If Borrower consists of more than one Person, then the obligation of those Persons to indemnify the Indemnitees under this Article IX will be joint and several. The obligation of Borrower to indemnify the Indemnitees under this Article IX will survive any repayment or discharge of the Indebtedness, any foreclosure proceeding, any foreclosure sale, any delivery of any deed in lieu of foreclosure, and any release of record of the Lien of the Security Instrument. However, if Lender has never been a mortgagee-in-possession of, or held title to, the Mortgaged Properties or any of them, Borrower will have no obligation to indemnify the Indemnitees under this Article IX after the date of the release of record of the Lien of the Security Instrument by payment in full at the Maturity Date or by voluntary prepayment in full.

ARTICLE X         MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS.

10.01 Waiver of Statute of Limitations, Offsets and Counterclaims. Borrower waives the right to assert any statute of limitations as a bar to the enforcement of this Loan Agreement or the Lien of the Security Instrument or to any action brought to enforce any Loan Document. Borrower waives the right to assert a counterclaim, other than a compulsory counterclaim, in any action or proceeding brought against it by Lender or otherwise to offset any obligations to make the payments required by the Loan Documents. No failure by Lender to perform any of its obligations under the Loan Documents will be a valid defense to, or result in any offset against, any payments that Borrower is obligated to make under any of the Loan Documents.

10.02. Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction and Venue. The parties intend that Lender will assign the Loan, the Loan Agreement, the Security Instruments, the Pledge Agreement and the other Loan Documents to the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation, a congressionally-chartered government-sponsored enterprise having its principal place of business in McLean, Virginia. This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia. Borrower submits to the in personam jurisdiction of any federal or state court in (i) any state or jurisdiction in which any Mortgaged Property is located and (ii) the Commonwealth of Virginia with respect to any proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement. Borrower irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, any objections Borrower may now or hereafter have to the venue of any suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court and any claim that the same has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Borrower

Loan Agreement – SFR Page 44

acknowledges that the foregoing venue provision is integral to Lender’s realization of its rights hereunder. Borrower further acknowledges that it is not in a disparate bargaining position, that it is a commercial enterprise, with sophisticated financial, legal and economic experience, and that the venue selections contained in this Agreement are not unreasonable, unjust, inconvenient or overreaching.

10.03 Notice.

(a) All Notices under or concerning this Loan Agreement will be in writing. Each Notice will be deemed given on the earliest to occur of: (i) the date when the Notice is received by the addressee, (ii) the first Business Day after the Notice is delivered to a recognized overnight courier service, with arrangements made for payment of charges for next Business Day delivery, or (iii) the third Business Day after the Notice is deposited in the United States mail with postage prepaid, certified mail, return receipt requested. Addresses for Notice are as shown in Article I.

(b) Any party to this Loan Agreement may change the address to which Notices intended for it are to be directed by means of Notice given to the other party in accordance with this Section 10.03. Each party agrees that it will not refuse or reject delivery of any Notice given in accordance with this Section 10.03, that it will acknowledge, in writing, the receipt of any Notice upon request by the other party and that any Notice that it rejects or refuses will be deemed for purposes of this Section 10.03 to have been received by the rejecting party on the date so refused or rejected, as conclusively established by the records of the U.S. Postal Service or the courier service.

(c) Any Notice under any other Loan Document that does not specify how Notices are to be given will be given in accordance with this Section 10.03.

10.04 Successors and Assigns Bound. This Loan Agreement will bind the respective successors and assigns of Borrower and Lender, and the rights granted by this Loan Agreement will inure to Lender’s successors and assigns.

10.05 Joint and Several (and Solidary) Liability. If more than one Person signs this Loan Agreement as Borrower, then the obligations of such Persons will be joint and several. For a Mortgaged Property located in Louisiana, if more than one Person signs this Loan Agreement as Borrower, then the obligations of such Persons will be joint and several and solidary, and wherever the phrase “joint and several” appears in this Loan Agreement, the phrase is amended to read “joint, several, and solidary.”

10.06 Relationship of Parties; No Third Party Beneficiary.

(a) The relationship between Lender and Borrower will be solely that of creditor and debtor, respectively, and nothing contained in this Loan Agreement will create any other relationship between Lender and Borrower. Nothing contained in this Loan Agreement will constitute Lender as a joint venturer, partner or agent of Borrower, or render Lender liable for any debts, obligations, acts, omissions, representations or contracts of Borrower.

(b) No creditor of any party to this Loan Agreement and no other Person will be a third party beneficiary of this Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document. Any arrangement between Lender and any Loan Servicer for loss sharing or interim advancement of funds (“Servicing Arrangement”) will constitute a contractual obligation of such Loan Servicer that is independent of the obligation of Borrower for the payment of the Indebtedness. Borrower will not be a third party beneficiary of any Servicing Arrangement. No payment by the Loan Servicer under any Servicing Arrangement will reduce the amount of the Indebtedness.

10.07 Subrogation. If the proceeds of the Loan, or subsequent advances under Section 8.02, are used to pay, satisfy or discharge a Prior Lien, then such Loan proceeds or advances will be deemed to have been advanced by Lender at Borrower’s request, and Lender will automatically, and without further action on its part, be subrogated to the rights, including Lien priority, of the owner or holder of the obligation secured by the Prior Lien, whether or not the Prior Lien is released.

Loan Agreement – SFR Page 45

10.08 Severability. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Loan Agreement will not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision, and all other provisions will remain in full force and effect. This Loan Agreement contains the entire agreement among the parties as to the rights granted and the obligations assumed in this Loan Agreement.

10.09 Amendments. This Loan Agreement may not be amended or modified except by a writing signed by the party against whom enforcement is sought.

10.10 Disclosure of Information; Authorization to Publicly Use Loan Information.

(a) Borrower acknowledges that Lender may provide to third parties with an existing or prospective interest in the servicing, enforcement, evaluation, performance, ownership, purchase, participation or Securitization (if applicable) of the Loan, including any of the Rating Agencies, any entity maintaining databases on the underwriting and performance of commercial mortgage loans, as well as governmental regulatory agencies having regulatory authority over Lender, any and all information which Lender now has or may hereafter acquire relating to the Loan, a Mortgaged Property, Borrower or any Guarantor, as Lender determines necessary or desirable and that such information may be included in disclosure documents in connection with a Securitization (if applicable) or syndication of participation interests, including a prospectus, prospectus supplement, offering memorandum, private placement memorandum or similar document (each, a “Disclosure Document”) and also may be included in any filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Act or the Securities Exchange Act. To the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, Borrower irrevocably waives all rights, if any, to prohibit such disclosure, including any right of privacy.

(b) Borrower agrees that Lender may publicly use, at Lender’s discretion, photographs of the Mortgaged Property, and basic transaction information (for example, the number of units in a Mortgaged Property and the Loan Amount) relating to the Loan.

10.11 Determinations by Lender. In any instance where the consent or approval of Lender may be given or is required, or where Lender is authorized to render any determination, judgment, or decision under this Loan Agreement, the granting, withholding or denial of such consent or approval and the rendering of such determination, judgment or decision will be made or exercised by Lender (or its designated representative) at its option and in its discretion.

10.12 Sale of Note; Change in Loan Servicer; Loan Servicing. The Note or a partial interest in the Note (together with this Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents) may be sold one or more times without prior Notice to Borrower. A sale may result in a change of the Loan Servicer. There also may be one or more changes of the Loan Servicer unrelated to a sale of the Note. If there is a change of the Loan Servicer, then Borrower will be given Notice of the change. The Loan Servicer may take all actions regarding the servicing of the Loan unless Borrower receives Notice to the contrary, including the collection of payments, the disbursement and application of Reserve Funds, the giving and receipt of Notice, inspections of the Mortgaged Properties, inspections of Books and Records, and the granting of consents and approvals. If Borrower receives conflicting Notices regarding the identity of the Loan Servicer or any other subject, then any such Notice from Lender will govern.

10.13 Reserved.

10.14 Lender’s Rights to Sell or Securitize. Borrower acknowledges that Lender, and each successor to Lender’s interest, may (without prior Notice to Borrower or Borrower’s prior consent), sell or grant participations in the Loan (or any part of the Loan), sell or subcontract the servicing rights related to the Loan, securitize the Loan or place the Loan in a trust. Borrower, at its expense, agrees to cooperate with all requests of Lender in connection with any of the foregoing including taking the following actions:

(a) Executing any financing statements or other documents deemed necessary by Lender or its transferee to create, perfect or preserve the rights and interest to be acquired by such transferee.

10.15 Cooperation with Rating Agencies and Investors. If Lender decides to include the Loan as an asset of a Secondary Market Transaction, then Borrower will do all of the following:

(b) Permit Lender or its representatives to provide related information to the Rating Agencies and/or investors.

(e) Unless the context requires otherwise, (i) any definition of or reference to any agreement, instrument or other document in this Loan Agreement will be construed as referring to such agreement, instrument or other document as from time to time amended, supplemented or otherwise modified (subject to any restrictions on such amendments, supplements or modifications set forth in this Loan Agreement), and (ii) any reference in this Loan Agreement to any Person will be construed to include such Person’s successors and assigns.

(f) Any reference in this Loan Agreement to “Lender’s requirements,” “as required by Lender,” or similar references will be construed, after Securitization, to mean Lender’s requirements or standards as determined in accordance with Lender’s and Loan Servicer’s obligations under the terms of the Securitization documents.

10.20 Right to Apply Proceeds in Connection with Releases. For so long as the Loan or any portion of the Loan is included in a Securitization, then each of the following will apply:

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, if any Mortgaged Property is released from the Lien of the Loan in connection with a casualty, Condemnation or Transfer and if the ratio of (A) the unpaid principal balance of the Loan to (B) the value of the Mortgaged Properties (taking into account only the related land and buildings and not any personal property or going-concern value), as determined by Lender in its discretion based on a commercially reasonable valuation method permitted in connection with a Securitization, is greater than 125% immediately after such casualty, Condemnation or Transfer and before any Restoration or Repair of any Mortgaged Property (but taking into account any planned Restoration or repair of the Mortgaged Property as if such planned Restoration or repair were completed), then Lender will apply any net proceeds or awards from such casualty, Condemnation or Transfer, in full, to the payment of the principal of the Indebtedness whether or not then due and payable, unless Lender has received an opinion of counsel that a different application of such net proceeds or awards will not cause such Securitization to fail to meet applicable federal income tax qualification requirements or subject such Securitization to any tax and the net proceeds or awards are applied in the manner specified in such opinion.

(b) If neither Borrower nor Lender has the right to receive any or all of the net proceeds or awards as a result of the provisions of any agreement affecting any Mortgaged Property (including any condominium document or reciprocal easement agreement) and, therefore cannot apply such net proceeds or awards to the payment of the principal of the Indebtedness as set forth above, then Borrower will prepay the Indebtedness in an amount which Lender, in its discretion, deems necessary to ensure that the Securitization will not fail to meet applicable federal income tax qualification requirements or be subject to any tax as a result of the casualty, Condemnation, or Transfer.
