ARTICLE 3
INTEREST RATE PROVISIONS

          3.1.      Interest Rates.

               (a)     Interest Rate.

13


Back to Contents

               (b)     Default Rate. The principal balance outstanding under the Loan and any other amounts payable under any of the Loan Documents from time to time shall bear interest at the Default Rate (i) following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (regardless of whether payment of the Loan has been accelerated) and (ii) unless the term of the Loan is extended pursuant to written agreement between Borrower and Lender, between the Maturity Date and the date on which the Loan is paid in full.

               (c)     Usurious Rate. All agreements between Borrower and Lender are hereby expressly limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by reason of acceleration of maturity of the Loan or otherwise shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid to Lender for the use or the forbearance of the indebtedness evidenced hereby exceed the maximum permissible under applicable law. As used herein, the term “applicable law” shall mean the law in effect as of the Closing Date; provided, however, that in the event there is a change in the law which results in a higher permissible rate of interest, then the Loan Documents shall be governed by such new law as of its effective date. In this regard, it is expressly agreed that it is the intent of Borrower and Lender in the execution, delivery and acceptance of the Loan Documents to contract in strict compliance with the applicable laws from time to time in effect. If, under or from any circumstances whatsoever, fulfillment of any provision hereof or of any of the Loan Documents at the time of performance of such provision shall be due, shall involve transcending the limit of such validity prescribed by applicable law, then the obligation to be fulfilled shall automatically be reduced to the limits of such validity, and if under or from circumstances whatsoever Lender should ever receive as interest an amount which would exceed the highest lawful rate, such amount which would be excessive interest shall be applied to the reduction of the principal balance evidenced hereby and not to the payment of interest. This provision shall control every other provision of all agreements between Borrower and Lender.

          3.2.      Computation of Interest. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a year of three hundred sixty (360) days and paid for the actual number of days elapsed. Interest for any period shall be calculated from and including the first day thereof to but excluding the last day thereof.

          3.3.      Taxes. All payments by Borrower of principal of, and interest on, the Loan and all other amounts payable under this Agreement shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Taxes (other than franchise taxes and taxes imposed on or measured by Lender’s net income or receipts). In the event that any withholding or deduction from any payment to be made by Borrower hereunder is required in respect of any such Taxes pursuant to any applicable law, rule or regulation, then Borrower will

                    (i)     pay directly to the relevant authority the full amount required to be so withheld or deducted,

                    (ii)     promptly forward to Lender an official receipt or other documentation satisfactory to Lender evidencing such payment to such authority, and

14


Back to Contents

                    (iii)     pay to Lender such additional amount or amounts as may be necessary to ensure that the net amount actually received by Lender will equal the full amount Lender would have received had no such withholding or deduction been required.

               (b)     If any such Taxes are directly asserted against Lender with respect to any payment received by Lender under this Agreement, Lender may pay such Taxes and Borrower will promptly pay such additional amount (including any penalties, interest or expenses, unless the same result from Lender’s failure to pay any such tax when due if Lender received the tax bill at least fifteen (15) days before its due date) as is necessary in order that the net amount received by Lender after the payment of such Taxes (including any such Taxes on such additional amount) shall equal the amount Lender would have received had such Taxes not been asserted.

               (c)     If Borrower fails to pay any such Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to Lender the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, Borrower shall indemnify Lender for any incremental amount of such Taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by Lender as a result of any such failure.

          4.2.      Prepayments. Borrower shall have the right to prepay all or any portion of the unpaid principal balance of the Loan, provided (i) Borrower shall give Lender notice of any prepayment of the Loan not less than fifteen (15) days before the date of such prepayment and (ii) Borrower shall concurrently prepay a ratable portion of the Construction Loan. Notice of prepayment shall specify the amount of the prepayment, the date such prepayment is to be made and shall include a copy of the agreement of sale or commitment letter for refinancing precipitating such prepayment (if any).

          4.3.      Application of Payments. Any payment, whether voluntary or involuntary, shall be applied first to the payment of all fees, expenses and other amounts which may be payable to Lender under the Loan Documents up to the date of such payment (excluding principal and interest), then to accrued and unpaid interest under the Loan up to the date of such payment, and then to the outstanding principal balance of the Loan and the acceptance of any such prepayment when there is an Event of Default in existence under any of the Loan Documents shall not constitute a waiver, release or accord and satisfaction thereof or of any rights with respect thereto by Lender.

               (a)     No Reductions. All payments due to Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, shall be made by Borrower without any reduction or deduction whatsoever, including any reduction or deduction for any charge, set-off, hold back, recoupment or counterclaim (whether sounding in tort, contract or otherwise).

               (b)     Authorization to Charge Accounts. During the term of the Loan, all payments due to Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including monthly installments on account of principal and interest) shall be made by direct debit from an account designated and maintained by Borrower with Lender, and Borrower shall execute Lender’s standard forms to authorize such direct debit; provided, however, that such authorization shall not relieve Borrower from any of its obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document. Borrower hereby authorizes Lender to charge any amounts due under this Agreement against any or all of the demand deposit or other accounts of Borrower with Lender (whether maintained at a branch or office located within or outside of the United States).

If special assessments against the Project may be paid in installments and Borrower elects to do so, the monthly payments to Lender for such special assessments shall be one-twelfth (1/12th) of the current annual installments. No amounts so paid shall be deemed to be trust funds but may be commingled with general funds of Lender, and no interest shall be payable thereon. If, pursuant to any provision of this Agreement, the whole amount of said principal debt remaining or any installment of interest, principal or principal and interest become due and payable, Lender shall apply any amounts so held in payment of the premiums or payments for which the amounts were deposited. If the taxes, assessments, levies, charges or fees required to be paid hereof shall exceed the estimate therefor, Borrower shall without demand forthwith make good the deficiency. Borrower will furnish bills for the above items to Lender promptly after receipt.

               (a)     Declare the outstanding principal balance of the Loan, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all other sums due hereunder or under any other Loan Document, to be immediately due and payable in full;

               (b)     Cease making any further disbursements or Advances hereunder;

               (c)     Enter upon the Premises and take possession thereof, together with the Improvements in the course of construction or completed and all materials, supplies, tools, equipment and construction facilities and appliances located thereon, and proceed either in the name of Lender or in the name of Borrower as the attorney-in-fact of Borrower (which authority is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable by Borrower) as Lender shall elect, to complete the New Improvements at the cost and expense of Borrower. If Lender elects to complete or cause the New Improvements to be so completed, it shall have the right at any time to discontinue any work without liability. If Lender elects to complete or cause the New Improvements to be so completed, it shall not assume any liability to Borrower or any other Person for completing the New Improvements or for the manner or quality of construction of the New Improvements except arising from gross negligence or willful misconduct of Lender, and Borrower expressly waives any such liability. In addition, it may complete or cause the New Improvements to be completed according to the terms of the Plans and Specifications or according to such changes, alterations or modifications in and to the Plans and Specifications as Lender shall deem expedient or necessary and Lender may enforce or cancel all contracts entered into as aforesaid or make other contracts which Lender, in its sole discretion, may deem advisable, and Borrower shall be liable to pay Lender upon demand any amounts reasonably expended by Lender or its representatives for such performance, together with any reasonable costs, charges or expenses incident thereto or otherwise incurred or expended by Lender or its representatives on behalf of Borrower in connection with the New Improvements, and the amounts so expended shall bear interest at the Default Rate set forth in the Note and shall be considered part of the indebtedness evidenced by the Note and secured by the Mortgage. Borrower irrevocably appoints Lender as its attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution, to complete the New Improvements in Borrower’s name, or Lender may elect to complete construction in its own name;

               (d)     Exercise all other remedies available to Lender under any of the Loan Documents (subject to any applicable limitations on liability contained in the Loan Documents), or available to Lender under applicable Law, it being the intention of the parties that the remedies provided in this Agreement shall be in addition to and not in substitution of the rights and remedies which would otherwise be vested in Lender at law or in equity, all of which rights and remedies are specifically reserved by Lender, and the failure of Lender to exercise any remedy herein provided shall not constitute a waiver by Lender nor preclude the resort to any other appropriate remedy or remedies herein provided or prevent the subsequent or concurrent resort to any other remedy or remedies which by law or equity shall be vested in Lender for the recovery of damages or otherwise in the event of a breach of any of the undertakings of Borrower hereunder, and any waiver by Lender of any rights or remedies hereunder must, to be effective, be in writing, and such waiver shall be limited in its effect to the condition or default specified therein, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent condition or default or impair any right consequent thereon;

               (e)     If an Event of Default specified in subsections (e) or (f) of Section 10.1 shall occur or exist, then, in addition to all other rights and remedies which Lender may have hereunder or under any other Loan Document, at law, in equity or otherwise, the unpaid principal amount of the Loan, interest accrued thereon and all other obligations of Borrower to Lender shall become immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived, and an action therefor shall immediately accrue, and in addition, Lender may exercise such other remedies as may be available to Lender under applicable Law;

               (f)     It is agreed that, in addition to all other rights hereunder or under Law, Lender shall have the right to institute proceedings in equity or other appropriate proceedings for the specific performance of any covenant or agreement made in any of the Loan Documents or for an injunction against the violation of any of the terms of any of the Loan Documents or in aid of the exercise of any power granted in any of the Loan Documents or by Law or otherwise;

               (g)     Lender shall have and is hereby granted, as security for all liabilities of Borrower to Lender, a right of set-off, a lien upon and a security interest in all property of Borrower now or at any time hereafter in Lender’s possession in any capacity whatsoever, including, without limitation, any balance or share of any deposit, trust or agency account;

               (h)     In the event that any proceeding is instituted on this Agreement or judgment is entered on any note, bond, separate warrant of attorney or mortgage for recovery and reimbursement of any sum expended by Lender or its representatives in connection with the completion of the New Improvements, a statement of such expenditures, verified by the affidavit of an officer of Lender, shall be prima facie evidence of the amounts so expended and of the propriety of and necessity for such expenditures, and the burden of proving the contrary shall be upon Borrower;

               (i)     During the continuance of any Event of Default, Lender is appointed as attorney-in-fact of Borrower for the purposes of carrying out the provisions of this Section 10.2 and taking any action and executing any instruments which Lender may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes hereof, which appointment as attorney-in-fact is irrevocable and coupled with an interest.

          11.3.      Severability. Every provision of this Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents is intended to be severable, and if any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable for any reason, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not be affected or impaired thereby, and any invalidity, illegality or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity, legality or enforceability of any such term or provision in any other jurisdiction. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part in any jurisdiction. this Agreement shall, as to such jurisdiction, be deemed amended to modify or delete, as necessary, the offending provision or provisions and to alter the bounds thereof in order to render it or them valid and enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, without in any manner affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision or provisions in any other jurisdiction or the remaining provisions hereof in any jurisdiction.

          11.4.      Descriptive Headings; Governing Law. The descriptive headings of the several sections of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not affect the meaning or construction of any of the provisions of this Agreement. This Agreement and the rights and obligations of the parties under this Agreement and under any other Loan Document shall be construed in accordance with and shall be governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.

          11.5.      Publicity. Lender may, at its option and in such manner as it may determine, announce and publicize the source of the financing for the Improvements. In conjunction therewith, Lender may deliver to the Premises one sign for display indicating that it is providing financing for the Improvements. As to such sign, Borrower shall, at its expense, provide a prominent location for its display, shall cause the sign to be displayed in such place by suitably affixing the sign to a structure and shall maintain the display of such sign for the duration of the construction of the Improvements. Borrower shall be responsible for securing and paying for any and all permits required by the local authorities for any such sign. The content of the sign and all other publicity shall be subject to Borrower’s reasonable approval.

          11.6.      Non-Merger of Remedies. The covenants and obligations of Borrower and the rights and remedies of Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall not merge with or be extinguished by the entry of a judgment hereunder or thereunder, and such covenants, obligations, rights and remedies shall survive any entry of a judgment until payment in full of the Obligations. All obligations under the Loan Documents shall continue to apply with respect to and during the collection of amounts due under the Loan Documents or the proof and allowability of any claim arising under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, whether in bankruptcy or receivership proceedings or otherwise, and in any workout, restructuring or in connection with the protection, preservation, exercise or enforcement of any of the terms of this Agreement or of any rights under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document or in connection with any foreclosure, collection or bankruptcy proceedings. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the post-judgment interest rate shall be the applicable Default Rate.

          11.7.      No Implied Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No course of dealing and no delay or failure of Lender in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall affect any other or future exercise thereof or exercise of any other right, power or privilege; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right, power or privilege preclude any further exercise thereof or of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies of Lender under this Agreement and any other Loan Document are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which Lender would otherwise have hereunder or thereunder, at law, in equity or otherwise. Any waiver of a specific default shall be effective only as to such specific default and shall not apply to any subsequent default.

          11.8.      Amendments. Any term, covenant, agreement or condition of any Loan Document to which Lender is party may be amended, and any right under the Loan Documents may be waived, if, but only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed by Lender.

          11.9.      Successors and Assigns.

               (a)     Assignments by Borrower. Without the prior written consent of Lender, Borrower may not assign any of its rights or delegate any of its duties or obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

               (b)     Participations by Lender. Lender may, at no cost or liability to Borrower or Guarantor, sell participations to one or more Eligible Institutions of all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement; provided, however, that (i) Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) Lender shall remain solely responsible to Borrower for the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, (iii) all amounts payable by Borrower under this Agreement shall be determined as if Lender had not sold such participation and no participant shall be entitled to receive any greater amount pursuant to this Agreement than Lender would have been entitled to receive in respect of the amount of the participation transferred by Lender to such participant had no such transfer occurred, (iv) such participant shall agree to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and (v) Borrower shall continue to deal solely and directly with Lender in connection with Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, and Lender shall retain the sole rights and responsibility vis-à-vis Borrower to enforce the obligations of Borrower relating to the Loan including the right to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement.

               (c)     Assignments by Lender. Lender shall have the unrestricted right at any time or from time to time, at no cost or liability to Borrower or Guarantor, and without Borrower’s or Guarantors’ consent, to assign all or any portion of its rights and obligations under the Loan to one or more assignees (each, an “Assignee”), and Borrower and each Guarantor agree that it shall execute, or cause to be executed, such documents, instruments and agreements executed in connection herewith as Lender shall reasonably deem necessary to effect the foregoing. In addition, at the request of Lender and any such Assignee, Borrower shall issue one or more new promissory notes, as applicable, to any such Assignee and, if Lender has retained any of its rights and obligations hereunder following such assignment, to Lender which new promissory notes shall be issued in replacement of, but not in discharge of, the liability evidenced by the promissory note held by Lender prior to such assignment and shall reflect the amount of the respective commitments and loans held by such Assignee and Lender after giving effect to such assignment. Upon the execution and delivery of appropriate assignment documentation, amendments and any other documentation required by Lender in connection with such assignment, and the payment by Assignee of the purchase price agreed to by Lender and such Assignee, such Assignee shall be a party to this Agreement and shall have all of the rights and obligations of Lender hereunder (and under any and all other guaranties, documents, instruments and agreements executed in connection herewith) to the extent that such rights and obligations have been assigned by Lender pursuant to the assignment documentation between Lender and such Assignee, and Lender shall be released from its obligation hereunder and thereunder to a corresponding extent. Borrower shall respond to a reasonable request to furnish information concerning Borrower in its possession from time to time (but not more than three times during the term of the Loan) to prospective Assignees, provided that Lender shall require any such prospective Assignees to agree in writing to maintain the confidentiality of such information. Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Assignee shall be an Eligible Institution. After the occurrence of an Event of Default, the assignee may be any person or entity without restriction.

               (d)     Confidential Information. Borrower acknowledges that participations and assignments by Lender may require that certain confidential information be released to third parties for the purpose of evaluation of the Loan. Lender shall use reasonable efforts to limit the distribution of such confidential information to such third parties and their respective employees and agents. Borrower acknowledges that Lender will not responsible to Borrower or either Guarantor for the actions of third parties because of their disclosure or misuse of the information given to them.

          11.10.      Counterparts; Photocopied or Telecopied Signature Pages. Any Loan Document (other than the Note) may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of a photocopy or telecopy of an executed counterpart of a signature page to any Loan Document shall be as effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of such Loan Document.

          11.11.      Indemnification.

               (a)     Borrower shall, upon demand, pay or reimburse Lender for, and indemnify and save Lender and its respective Affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys, shareholders and consultants (collectively, “Indemnitees”) harmless from and against, any and all losses, liabilities, claims, damages (excluding consequential damages), expenses, obligations, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for such Indemnitee in connection with any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding commenced or threatened, whether or not such Indemnitee shall be designated a party thereto) that may at any time be imposed on, asserted against or incurred by such Indemnitee as a result of, or arising out of, or in any way related to or by any other Loan Document, or any transaction actually or proposed to be financed in whole or in part or directly or indirectly with the proceeds of the Loan, any transaction contemplated by the Loan Documents but excluding any such losses, liabilities, claims, damages, expenses, obligations, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs or disbursements that arose solely as the result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee(s) or arose solely out of disputes between or among Indemnitee(s). If and to the extent that the foregoing obligations of Borrower under this subsection (a), or any other indemnification obligation of Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document are unenforceable for any reason, Borrower hereby agrees to make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of such obligations which is permissible and enforceable under applicable Law.

 

42


Back to Contents

               (b)     The indemnities contained herein shall survive repayment of the Obligations and satisfaction, release, and discharge of the Loan Documents, whether through full payment of the Loan, foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise, to the extent the matters covered thereby may thereafter be asserted against any of the Indemnitees.

               (c)     The foregoing amounts are in addition to any other amounts which may be due and payable to Lender under this Agreement.

          11.12.      Expenses. Borrower agrees to pay promptly or cause to be paid promptly and to hold harmless:

               (a)     Lender against liability for the payment of all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including but not limited to reasonable fees and expenses of counsel, including local counsel, auditors, consulting engineers, appraisers, and all other professional, accounting, evaluation and consulting costs) incurred by it from time to time arising from or relating to (i) the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (ii) any amendments, modifications, supplements, waivers or consents (whether or not ultimately entered into or granted) requested by Borrower to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and (iii) the enforcement of rights under this Agreement or any other of the Loan Documents (including but not limited to any such costs or expenses arising from or relating to (A) collection or enforcement of the Loan or other Obligation, and (B) any litigation, proceeding, dispute, work-out, restructuring or rescheduling related in any way to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents); and

               (b)     Lender against liability for all stamp, document, transfer, recording, filing, registration, search, sales and excise fees and taxes (other than Lender’s income taxes) and all similar impositions now or hereafter determined by Lender to be payable in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

          11.13.      Certain Waivers by Borrower. Borrower hereby waives promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance and any other notice with respect to any of the Obligations (other than notices required to be given by Lender pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document) and any requirement that Lender exhaust any right or take any action against any other Person or any collateral or other direct or indirect security for any of the Obligations. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Borrower acknowledges and agrees that Lender may commence an action against Borrower whether or not any action is brought against any collateral and it shall be no defense to any action brought against Borrower that Lender has failed to bring an action against any collateral.

 

43


Back to Contents

 

          11.14.      Set-Off. Borrower hereby grants to Lender a continuing lien, security interest and right of setoff as security for all liabilities and Obligations to Lender whether now existing or hereafter arising, upon and against all deposits, credits, collateral and property, now or hereafter in the possession, custody, safekeeping or control of Lender and its successors and assigns or in transit to any of them. At any time after an Event of Default, without demand or notice (any such notice being expressly waived by Borrower), Lender may setoff the same or any part thereof and apply the same to any liability or obligation of Borrower even though unmatured and regardless of the adequacy of any other collateral securing the Loan. ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO REQUIRE LENDER TO EXERCISE ITS RIGHTS OR REMEDIES WITH RESPECT TO ANY OTHER COLLATERAL WHICH SECURES THE LOAN, PRIOR TO EXERCISING ITS RIGHT OF SETOFF WITH RESPECT TO SUCH DEPOSITS, CREDITS OR OTHER PROPERTY OF BORROWER, ARE HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVED.

          11.15.      Certain Borrower Acknowledgments. Borrower hereby acknowledges that Lender has no fiduciary relationship with, or any fiduciary duty to Borrower arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document and the relationship between Lender, on the one hand, and Borrower, on the other hand, in connection herewith or therewith is solely that of debtor and creditor.

          11.16.      Consent to Jurisdiction, Service and Venue; Waiver of Jury Trial.

               (a)     Consent to Jurisdiction. For the purpose of enforcing payment and performance of the Loan Documents, including, any payment under the Note and performance of other Obligations, or in any other matter relating to, or arising out of the Loan Documents, Borrower hereby consents to the jurisdiction and venue of the courts of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania or of any federal court located in such state, waives personal service of any and all process upon it and consents that all such service of process be made by certified or registered mail directed to Borrower at the address provided for in Section 11.1 and service so made shall be deemed to be completed upon actual receipt or execution of a receipt by any Person at such address. Borrower hereby waives the right to contest the jurisdiction and venue of the courts located in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania on the ground of inconvenience or otherwise and, further, waives any right to bring any action or proceeding against Lender in any court outside the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. For the purpose of enforcing the performance of obligations by Lender under the Loan Documents, or in any other matter relating to, or arising out of the Loan Documents, Lender hereby consents to the jurisdiction and venue of the courts of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania or of any federal court located in such state, waives personal service of any and all process upon it and consents that all such service of process may be made by certified or registered mail directed to Lender at the address provided for in Section 11.1 and service so made shall be deemed to be completed upon actual receipt or execution of a receipt by any Person at such address. The provisions of this Section 11.16 shall not limit or otherwise affect the right of Lender to institute and conduct an action in any other appropriate manner, jurisdiction or court.

               (b)     WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL; DAMAGES. BORROWER AND LENDER (BY ACCEPTANCE OF THIS AGREEMENT) MUTUALLY HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY CLAIM BASED HEREON, ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT CONTEMPLATED TO BE EXECUTED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALINGS, STATEMENTS (WHETHER VERBAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF ANY PARTY, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALINGS, STATEMENTS OR ACTIONS OF LENDER RELATING TO THE ADMINISTRATION OF THE LOAN OR ENFORCEMENT OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, AND AGREE THAT NEITHER PARTY WILL SEEK TO CONSOLIDATE ANY SUCH ACTION WITH ANY OTHER ACTION IN WHICH A JURY TRIAL CANNOT BE OR HAS NOT BEEN WAIVED. EXCEPT AS PROHIBITED BY LAW, BORROWER HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO CLAIM OR RECOVER IN ANY LITIGATION ANY SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OR ANY DAMAGES OTHER THAN, OR IN ADDITION TO, ACTUAL DAMAGES. BORROWER CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF LENDER HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT LENDER WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER. THIS WAIVER CONSTITUTES A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR LENDER TO ACCEPT THIS AGREEMENT AND MAKE THE LOAN. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT (I) CERTIFIES THAT NEITHER LENDER NOR ANY REPRESENTATIVE, OR ATTORNEY OF LENDER HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT LENDER WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVERS AND (II) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND EACH OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SUBSECTION OF SECTION 11.16. THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 11.16 HAVE BEEN FULLY DISCLOSED TO THE PARTIES AND THE PROVISIONS SHALL BE SUBJECT TO NO EXCEPTIONS. NO PARTY HAS IN ANY WAY AGREED WITH OR REPRESENTED TO ANY OTHER PARTY THAT THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 11.16 WILL NOT BE FULLY ENFORCED IN ALL INSTANCES.

          11.17.      No Third Party Beneficiaries. The parties hereto do not intend the benefits of this Agreement to inure to any third party. Notwithstanding anything contained herein or in the Note, Mortgage, or any other document executed in connection with this transaction, or any conduct or course of conduct by any of the parties hereto, or their respective affiliated companies, agents or employees, before or after signing this Agreement or any of the other aforesaid documents, this Agreement shall not be construed as creating any rights, claims, or causes of action against Lender, or any of its officers, agents or employees, in favor of any Person other than Borrower.

          11.18.      Replacement of Note. Upon receipt of an affidavit of an officer of Lender as to the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of the Note, or any security document which is not of public record, and, in the case of any such loss, theft, destruction or mutilation, upon cancellation of such Note or security document, Borrower will issue, in lieu thereof, a replacement Note or security document in the same principal amount thereof and otherwise of like tenor.
