NO. 60 RECEIVED NYSCEF: 01/26/2024 2.3 Payment Priority and Details. All payments under this Note shall be first applied to interest, costs, expenses, fees, prepayment charges or fees (if applicable), delinquencies or any other fees due under this Note or any Loan Document, and then to principal. Early payments will not relieve Borrower of any other obligations under this Note or the Loan Documents, as they are defined in Section 5 below. If Borrower makes a payment on the Loan which is later dishonored, a fee in the amount of $250.00 or such greater amount incurred by Lender will be charged, in addition to any other fees, costs and expenses due under the Loan Documents. All payments shall be made by Borrower according to the following wire instructions: Account Name: Trimont Real Estate Advisors, LLC Custodial Deposit Clearing Account Bank Name: J.P. Morgan Chase Bank Address: 245 Park Avenue, 14th Floor New York, NY 10017 Bank City, St: New York, NY Bank ABA #: 021000021 Bank Acct #: 762509682 Reference Loan #: 2423901, 2423902, 2423903 2.4 Interest Calculation. Interest on this Note is calculated on a 360-day year basis. With respect to any applicable period, Interest on the outstanding principal balance shall be calculated by multiplying (a) the actual number of days elapsed in the period for which the calculation is being made by (b) a daily rate based on the Interest Rate (or the Default Rate, as applicable) and a three hundred sixty (360) day year by (c) the then outstanding principal balance of the Loan. 3. Prepayment. Borrower agrees that all Commitment Fees, Loan fees and all other pre-paid finance charges or fees are fully earned as of the Disbursement Date. Borrower may repay this Note in full prior to the Maturity Date without penalty, which prepayment shall include all principal, interest, fees, charges, expenses and other payments that are due under this Note or any of the Loan Documents. 4. Late Payments; Default Rate. If the Borrower fails to make any payment of principal, interest or other amount coming due pursuant to the provisions of this Note within three (3) days from the date when due and payable (other than the principal amount of this Note that is due on the Maturity Date), the Borrower also shall pay to the Lender a late charge equal to ten percent (10.0%) of the amount of such payment (the “Late Charge”). Upon maturity, whether by acceleration, demand or otherwise, and at the Lender’s option upon the occurrence of any Event of Default (as hereinafter defined), this Note shall bear interest at a rate that shall be twenty-five percentage points (25.0%) per annum, but not more than the maximum rate allowed by law (the “Default Rate”). The Default Rate shall continue to apply whether or not judgment shall be entered on this Note. Both the Late Charge and the Default Rate are imposed as liquidated damages for the purpose of defraying the Lender’s expenses incident to the handling of delinquent payments, but are in addition to, and not in lieu of, the Lender’s exercise of any rights and remedies hereunder, under the other Loan Documents or under applicable law, and any fees and expenses of any agents 3 CPIF/NYC – 2022 Note 10277581v.10 FILED: NEW YORK COUNTY CLERK 01/26/2024 05:22 PM INDEX NO. 656413/2023 NYSCEF DOC. NO. 60 RECEIVED NYSCEF: 01/26/2024 or attorneys which the Lender may employ. In addition, the Default Rate reflects the increased credit risk to the Lender of carrying a loan that is in default. The Borrower agrees that the Late Charge and Default Rate are reasonable forecasts of just compensation for anticipated and actual harm incurred by the Lender, and that the actual harm incurred by the Lender cannot be estimated with certainty and without difficulty. 5. Loan Documents; Security. The Loan proceeds are for the payment of interest on a loan from Lender to Borrower made on April 22, 2021 for the acquisition of certain real property, which is located at 14 Vesey Street, New York, New York 10007 (the “Property”) and certain other costs of Lender in connection with the Loan and the Property, as more particularly described in the Loan Agreement.

All such security documents are subject to all of the terms hereof to the extent necessary to enforce this Note. If there is a conflict among any of the Loan Documents, the most favorable construction for Lender shall be applied. 6. Events of Default. “Event of Default,” wherever used herein, means any one of the following events (whether it shall be involuntary or be pursuant to or affected by operation of law). If no cure period is stated, there is no cure or notice right for Borrower. 6.1 Failure to Make Payment. Borrower’s failure to make any payment of principal or interest or any other payment precisely when due hereunder. 6.2 Event of Default under Loan Documents. The occurrence of any event of default under any other of the Loan Documents, or any other agreement, pledge, security agreement, indemnity, financing statement or other document executed in connection with this Note or the Loan evidenced hereby, or the occurrence of any event of default, after the expiration of all applicable notice and cure periods, under any other agreements between Borrower and Lender, or Guarantor and Lender, or their respective affiliates, with respect to the Property (“Other 4 CPIF/NYC – 2022 Note 10277581v.10 FILED: NEW YORK COUNTY CLERK 01/26/2024 05:22 PM INDEX NO. 656413/2023 NYSCEF DOC.

Lender’s failure to exercise any option hereunder shall not constitute a waiver of the right to exercise the same in the event of any subsequent Event of Default. 7.2 If any amounts are due to Borrower or any Guarantor (or any of their affiliates) from Lender for any reason, Lender may set off such amounts in order to satisfy a default or any amounts due from Borrower under this Note. 8.

In connection with any such review, Borrower will furnish and will cause Guarantors to furnish Lender with any information regarding Borrower’s or Guarantors’ financial condition and business operations that Lender reasonably requests.
