Prior to December 10, 2016 (the “Initial Term”), Lender agrees to waive the obligations and requirements imposed upon Borrower by Section 1.04 (Escrow Deposits) of the Mortgage for the payment to Lender each month of tax and insurance deposits on the condition that:

 

  (a) Borrower pays all real estate taxes, assessments and similar charges as they become due and before they become delinquent,

 

  (b) Borrower pays all insurance premiums at least ten (10) days before the expiration date of any policy or policies required under the Mortgage, to the extent that Borrower has been invoiced for such premiums, but in any case, notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower shall not permit any such policy to lapse,

 

  (c) Borrower promptly submits to Lender’s Real Estate Department evidence of the timely payment of such real estate taxes, assessments and similar charges and receipts evidencing the timely payment of insurance premiums,

 

  (d) the Debt Coverage Ratio, as determined by Lender, is at least 1.50, and


  (e) Borrower pays to Lender on the date hereof a one-time administrative fee of $3,000 for monitoring Borrower’s compliance with its obligation to pay Impositions and insurance premiums.

Such certification by an authorized officer or other authorized party of Borrower must specifically state that the financial statements being submitted were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles relating to real estate consistently applied and that the information contained therein is true and correct and accurately represents the financial position of the Secured Property.

3. Guarantor Financial Statements. Lender agrees to allow Dividend Capital Total Realty Trust Inc., a Maryland corporation (“TRT”) and Dividend Capital Total Realty Operating Partnership LP, a Delaware limited partnership (“TROP”, and together with TRT, “Guarantor”) to submit annual consolidated financial statements certified by an authorized officer or other authorized party of such Guarantor in lieu of requiring that such annual financial statements be certified by an independent certified public accountant as required by Section 1.11 of that certain Guaranty of even date herewith, executed by Guarantor in favor of Lender (the “Guaranty”), provided that each of TRT and TROP furnishes to Lender the financial statements required by such Section within one hundred twenty (120) days after the end of each fiscal year of TRT and TROP. Such certification by an authorized officer or other authorized party of each of TRT and TROP must specifically state that the financial statements being submitted were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, consistently applied and that the information contained therein is true and correct and accurately represents the financial position of each of TRT and TROP.

6. Options to Extend Loan Term.

6.1 Extension Right. Lender agrees to allow Borrower two (2) options (each an “Extension Option”) to extend the Initial Term for two additional twelve (12) month periods (each an “Extension Period”) provided Borrower requests the extension in writing not less than sixty-five (65) days prior to the maturity of the Initial Term or the first Extension Period, as the case may be (the “Extension Request”).

6.2 Interest Rate and Related Terms. Within fifteen (15) business days of Lender’s receipt of an Extension Request, Lender shall inform Borrower, in writing, of the extension term interest rate and other Loan terms related to floating rate loans (“Extension Terms Letter”). The interest rate for each Extension Period shall be determined by Lender, in Lender’s sole discretion, and shall be equal to Lender’s then current interest rate (i.e. 30-day LIBOR plus Lender’s then current spread) for similar loans with similar maturities secured by comparable properties in the same geographic area, but in no event less than five and one-half percent (5.50%). Within fifteen (15) days after receipt of the Extension Terms Letter, Borrower shall advise Lender, in writing, of its election to accept or reject the terms set forth in the Extension Terms Letter. If Lender’s proposed terms are accepted by Borrower, the closing of the applicable Extension Period shall occur at least thirty (30) days before the maturity of the Initial Term or the first Extension Period, as applicable, but the interest rate adjustment shall be effective as of the commencement of the applicable Extension Period. If Borrower rejects the terms proposed by Lender, the Loan will mature at the end of the Initial Term or first Extension Period, as applicable, and Borrower shall have no further option to extend.

 

9


6.3 Extension Conditions. In connection with any Extension Option, the following conditions (the “Extension Conditions”) must be satisfied:.

(a) no Event of Default has occurred under any of the Loan Instruments and has continued beyond the applicable cure period, if any, and no event has occurred which, with the giving of notice or lapse of time, or both, would constitute an Event of Default;

(b) execution and recording of an extension and modification agreement acceptable to Lender and any other documents required by Lender to conform the existing Loan Instruments to Lender’s then current forms;

(c) Guarantor reaffirms all of its obligations under the Environmental Indemnity Agreement and under the Guaranty and Borrower enters into an interest rate protection agreement, in form and substance satisfactory to Lender with a strike price and an institution reasonably acceptable to Lender;

(d) to the extent available, an endorsement to Lender’s title insurance policy insuring the validity and priority of the lien of the Mortgage, as modified by such extension and modification agreement, subject to no exceptions and reflecting no subordinate liens or other encumbrances encumbering the Secured Property, except those set forth in Lender’s existing Loan title policy, approved in writing by Lender or expressly permitted by the Loan Instruments without Lender consent;

(e) an update to, or recertification of, the survey of the Secured Property, which shall require evidence that no changes were made to the Secured Property since the closing of the Loan, unless approved by Lender;

(f) at Lender’s option, updating and/or re-delivery of all opinions, documentation and other materials delivered by Borrower in connection with the closing of the Loan; provided however, no additional opinion letters shall be required if the sole modifications of the Loan are the extension of the Maturity Date and adjustment of the interest rate;

(g) concurrently with its exercise of each Extension Option, Borrower pays to Lender an extension fee equal to three eighths of one percent (0.375%) of the outstanding principal balance of the Loan;

(h) all out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Lender (including legal fees) in connection with the Extension Option are paid by Borrower, regardless of whether the transaction closes;

(i) Borrower executes and delivers to Lender an amended promissory note reflecting the applicable LIBOR rate and extended maturity date, which shall provide that during any Extension Period Borrower may prepay the entire outstanding principal balance of the Loan, together with all accrued interest

 

10


thereon to the date of such prepayment, and all other outstanding obligations, provided that Borrower gives Lender not less than thirty (30) days prior written notice of its intention to make such prepayment, and provided further that Borrower pays the LIBOR breakage fees, if any;

(j) with respect to the exercise of the first Extension Option only, Borrower shall certify to Lender in writing that Guarantor is in compliance with the financial covenants set forth below (which certification shall include a detailed calculation of Guarantor’s Net Worth, Liquidity and Leverage Ratio, in a form acceptable to Lender and prepared and certified by an officer or other authorized party of Guarantor with such financial documentation as Lender may reasonably require to independently verify such certification), tested as of the fiscal quarter last ending before Borrower sends notice to Lender that it requests to exercise the first Extension Option.

(i) Minimum Net Worth: Guarantor’s Net Worth (as defined in the Guaranty) shall not be less than $750,000,000.

(ii) Minimum Liquidity: Guarantor’s Liquidity (as defined in the Guaranty) shall not be less than $35,000,000.

(iii) Leverage Ratio: Guarantor’s Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Guaranty) shall not be greater than 75%.

In the event Guarantor is in breach of one or more of the foregoing covenants, Borrower or Guarantor shall deposit in cash, on the closing date of the first Extension Period, (i) the amount of $9,320,000 into the Debt Service Escrow Account (as defined in the Cash Management Agreement) or (ii) if the only financial covenant that is breached is the Minimum Liquidity covenant, the amount equal to two (2) times the shortfall in Guarantor’s Liquidity (as defined in the Guaranty) not to exceed $9,320,000, which amount shall be deposited into the Covenant Breach Collateral Account with Lender and held pursuant to the Covenant Breach Cash Collateral/LC Agreement (as defined in the Guaranty). In the event the amount described in clause (ii) is deposited with Lender, such additional collateral shall be held by Lender until such time as Borrower shall have deposited a total of $9,320,000 into the Debt Service Escrow Account.

6.4 First Extension Debt Service Escrow Account.

 

  (a)

In addition to the Extension Conditions set forth in Paragraph 6.3, should the Secured Property’s projected net operating income during the first Extension Period (excluding the Schwab Lease, but including any direct sub-tenancies whose scheduled lease terms extend beyond the term of Schwab Lease), as determined by Lender in its sole discretion (such determination to be made prior to the first Extension Period), not provide for a 1.00 to 1.00 Debt Coverage Ratio based on a nine percent (9%) loan constant on the outstanding principal balance of the Loan, then Borrower

 

11


 

or Guarantor shall deposit one year of debt service equal to $9,320,000 into the Debt Service Escrow Account in the following manner: on the closing date of the first Extension Option, Borrower or Guarantor shall make an initial deposit of $5,000,000 (“Initial Deposit”) into the Debt Service Escrow Account and thereafter beginning on January 10, 2017, shall make monthly deposits in the amount of $480,000 (in addition to the monthly deposit of $170,000 in the TI & LC Account required under the Cash Management Agreement) into the Debt Service Escrow Account on the tenth (10th) day of each month for nine (9) months through September 10, 2017, which together with the Initial Deposit shall accrue to $9,320,000 by September 10, 2017. In the event the Schwab Lease is partially terminated or modified prior to the closing date of the first Extension Period, the Initial Deposit shall be recalculated accordingly;

 

  (b) Beginning on October 10, 2017, or as otherwise approved by Lender, funds in the Debt Service Escrow Account may be used to pay any debt service shortfall resulting from the Property’s net operating income being insufficient to cover the actual debt service payment due and payable on the Loan;

 

  (c) The balance of the funds in the Debt Service Escrow Account shall be returned to Borrower if the Loan is paid in full or shall be used to supplement the Additional Collateral Escrow Account (as defined in the Cash Management Agreement) in the event the second Extension Option is exercised;

 

  (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Schwab Lease is terminated or cancelled prior to the closing date of the first Extension Period, Borrower or Guarantor shall make a deposit of $9,320,000 into the Debt Service Escrow Account on the closing date of the first Extension Period which deposit shall be reduced by any deposits made pursuant to subparagraph 6.4(a) or subparagraph 6.3(j) above.

 

  (e) For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall Borrower be required to deposit more than $9,320,000 into the Debt Service Escrow Account pursuant to subparagraph 6.4(a), 6.4(d) or subparagraph 6.3(j) above;

 

  (f) At the closing of the first Extension Period, Borrower shall pay to Lender a one-time non-refundable fee of $2,000 in connection with the administration of the Debt Service Escrow Account.

6.5 Second Extension Principal Balance Reduction. In the event any of the following conditions are not satisfied, Borrower or Guarantor shall pay down the outstanding principal balance of the Loan by $25,000,000:

 

  (a) on the closing date of the second Extension Option, the Property is at least sixty-five percent (65%) leased to tenants with lease terms acceptable to Lender, in its sole discretion, and

 

12


  (b) the Property’s net operating income (excluding the Schwab Lease), as determined by Lender, in its sole discretion, generated from signed tenant leases is not less than the greater of (a) $5,700,000 from 386,120 square feet or (b) the net operating income amount required to provide for a breakeven Debt Coverage Ratio based on the actual interest payments.

6.6 Second Extension Additional Collateral Escrow Account. In the event the Property’s net operating income (excluding the Schwab Lease), as determined by Lender, in its sole discretion, does not provide a 1.30 to 1.00 Debt Coverage Ratio based on a nine percent (9%) constant on the outstanding principal balance of the Loan (or the reduced outstanding principal balance of the Loan, as applicable), then Borrower or Guarantor shall:

 

  (a) transfer any remaining funds, if any, in the Debt Service Escrow Account into the Additional Collateral Escrow Account, and

 

  (b) deposit additional amounts into the Additional Collateral Escrow Account, equal to the difference between (X) the product of (i) the Loan’s outstanding principal balance and (ii) nine percent (9%) constant and (Y) the funds described in clause (a) above.

The Additional Collateral Escrow Account shall not be used to pay debt service. The funds shall remain on deposit until (i) the date on which the outstanding principal balance of the Loan is repaid in full or (ii) at the time Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that the Property’s projected net operating income in each year beginning January 1, 2018 through and including December 31, 2022 supports a 1.30 to 1.00 Debt Coverage Ratio based on a nine percent (9%) loan constant on the outstanding principal balance of the Loan.

7. Deemed Lease Approval. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 1.08 of the Mortgage or Section 8 of the Assignment, for all new leases, renewals, extensions, amendments or modifications that require Lender’s approval, if Lender fails to respond to Borrower’s request for approval within seven (7) Business Days of Lender’s receipt of such request, followed by Lender’s failure to respond within three (3) Business Days of a second request by Borrower, such failure shall be deemed to be Lender’s approval of the document submitted by Borrower for approval. In order to be effective, such approval requests shall contain language in bold, capital letters advising Lender of the time period in which Lender is required to review such request and that Lender’s failure to do so within such time period shall result in a deemed approval.

8. Building Façade Inspection. Borrower agrees to engage a consultant reasonably acceptable to Lender every three (3) years to conduct (and such consultant shall conduct) an inspection of the façade at the Secured Property. Borrower shall deliver to Lender such inspection results promptly after Borrower’s receipt thereof.

9. Biennial Certification. Borrower agrees to deliver to Lender every two (2) years copies of the Biennial Certification submitted to the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection pursuant to that certain Deed Notice dated June 24, 2003 made by American Financial Exchange L.L.C. and recorded in the Hudson County Register of Deeds on September 2, 2003, in Book 7120, Page 291.
