AND without limiting any of the other provisions of this Mortgage, to the extent permitted by applicable law, Mortgagor expressly grants to Mortgagee, as secured party, a security interest in the portion of the Property which is or may be subject to the provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code which are applicable to secured transactions; it being understood and agreed that the Improvements and Fixtures are part and parcel of the Unit (the Unit, the Improvements and the Fixtures collectively referred to as the “Real Property”) appropriated to the use thereof and, whether affixed or annexed to the Real Property or not, shall for the purposes of this Mortgage be deemed conclusively to be real estate and mortgaged hereby.
Section 1.2 Assignment of Rents. Mortgagor hereby absolutely and unconditionally assigns to Mortgagee all of Mortgagor’s right, title and interest in and to all current and future Leases and Rents; it being intended by Mortgagor that this assignment constitutes a present, absolute assignment and not an assignment for additional security only. Nevertheless, subject to the terms of the Assignment of Leases and Section 7.1(i) of this Mortgage, Mortgagee grants to Mortgagor a revocable license to collect, receive, use and enjoy the Rents. Mortgagor shall hold the Rents, or a portion thereof sufficient to discharge all current sums due on the Indebtedness, for use in the payment of such sums.
Section 1.3 Security Agreement. This Mortgage is both a real property mortgage and a “security agreement” within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code. The Property includes both real and personal property and all other rights and interests, whether tangible or intangible in nature, of Mortgagor in the Property. By executing and delivering this Mortgage, Mortgagor hereby grants to Mortgagee, as security for the Obligations (hereinafter defined), a security interest in the Fixtures, the Equipment, the Personal Property and other property constituting the Property to the full extent that the Fixtures, the Equipment, the Personal Property and such other property may be subject to the Uniform Commercial Code (said portion of the Property so subject to the Uniform Commercial Code being called the “Collateral”). If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, Mortgagee, in addition to any other rights and remedies which it may have, shall have and may exercise immediately and without demand, any and all rights and remedies granted to a secured party upon default under the Uniform Commercial Code, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the right to take possession of the Collateral or any part thereof, and to take such other measures as Mortgagee may deem necessary for the care, protection and preservation of the Collateral. Upon request or demand of Mortgagee after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Mortgagor shall, at its expense, assemble the Collateral and make it available to Mortgagee at a convenient place (at the Unit if tangible property) reasonably acceptable to Mortgagee. Mortgagor shall pay to Mortgagee on demand any and all expenses, including reasonable legal expenses and attorneys’ fees, incurred or paid by Mortgagee in protecting its interest in the Collateral and in enforcing its rights hereunder with respect to the Collateral after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default. Any notice of sale, disposition or other intended action by Mortgagee with
6

respect to the Collateral sent to Mortgagor in accordance with the provisions hereof at least ten (10) Business Days prior to such action, shall, except as otherwise provided by applicable law, constitute reasonable notice to Mortgagor. The proceeds of any disposition of the Collateral, or any part thereof, may, except as otherwise required by applicable law, be applied by Mortgagee to the payment of the Indebtedness in such priority and proportions as Mortgagee in its discretion shall deem proper. The principal place of business of Mortgagor (Debtor) is as set forth on page one hereof and the address of Mortgagee (Secured Party) is as set forth on page one hereof. Mortgagor hereby further authorizes Mortgagee to file a financing statement describing the Collateral covered thereby as “all assets of the debtor whether now owned or hereafter acquired”, notwithstanding that such wording may be broader in scope than the Collateral described in this Mortgage.
Section 1.4 Fixture Filing. Certain of the Property is or will become “fixtures” (as that term is defined in the Uniform Commercial Code) on the Unit, described or referred to in this Mortgage, and this Mortgage, upon being filed for record in the real estate records of the city or county wherein such fixtures are situated, shall operate also as a financing statement filed as a fixture filing in accordance with the applicable provisions of said Uniform Commercial Code upon such of the Property that is or may become fixtures.
Section 1.5 Pledges of Monies Held. Mortgagor hereby pledges to Mortgagee any and all monies now or hereafter held by Mortgagee or on behalf of Mortgagee in connection with the Loan, including, without limitation, any sums deposited in the Collateral Accounts (as defined in the Loan Agreement), as additional security for the Obligations until expended or applied as provided in this Mortgage.
CONDITIONS TO GRANT
TO HAVE AND TO HOLD the above granted and described Property unto and to the use and benefit of Mortgagee and its successors and assigns, forever;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, these presents are upon the express condition that, if Mortgagor shall well and truly pay to Mortgagee the Indebtedness at the time and in the manner provided in the Note, the Loan Agreement and this Mortgage, these presents and the estate hereby granted shall cease, terminate and be void; provided, however, that Mortgagor’s obligation to indemnify and hold harmless Mortgagee pursuant to the provisions hereof and the other Loan Documents and any provision which by its terms expressly survives payment of the Indebtedness or release shall survive any such payment or release.

(a) If any law is enacted or adopted or amended after the date of this Mortgage which deducts the Indebtedness from the value of the Property for the purpose of taxation or which imposes a tax, either directly or indirectly, on the Indebtedness or Mortgagee’s interest in the Property, Mortgagor will pay the tax to the extent required by, and in accordance with, Section 5.1.12 of the Loan Agreement, subject to the right to contest same, with interest and penalties thereon, if any.

(f) institute an action, suit or proceeding in equity for the specific performance of any covenant, condition or agreement contained herein, in the Note, the Loan Agreement or in the other Loan Documents;

16

hereof.

All such reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Mortgagee in remedying such Event of Default or such failed payment or act or in appearing in, defending, or bringing any such action or proceeding shall bear interest at the Default Rate, for the period beginning on the first day after notice from Mortgagee that such cost or expense was incurred and continuing until the date of payment to Mortgagee. All such reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Mortgagee together with interest thereon calculated at the Default Rate shall be deemed to constitute a portion of the Indebtedness and be secured by this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents and shall be immediately due and payable upon demand by Mortgagee therefor.
Section 7.4 Actions and Proceedings. Mortgagee has the right to appear in and defend any action or proceeding brought with respect to the Property and to bring any action or proceeding, in the name and on behalf of Mortgagor, which Mortgagee, in its reasonable discretion, decides should be brought to protect its interest in the Property.
Section 7.5 Recovery of Sums Required to Be Paid. Mortgagee shall have the right from time to time to take action to recover any sum or sums which constitute a part of the Indebtedness as the same become due, without regard to whether or not the balance of the Indebtedness shall be due, and without prejudice to the right of Mortgagee thereafter to bring an action of foreclosure, or any other action, for any Default or Event of Default by Mortgagor existing at the time such earlier action was commenced.
Section 7.6 Examination of Books and Records. At reasonable times and upon reasonable notice, Mortgagee, its agents, accountants and attorneys shall have the right to examine the records, books, management and other papers of Mortgagor which reflect upon its financial condition, at the Property or at any office regularly maintained by Mortgagor where the books and records are located.

So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Mortgagee may exercise its rights under this Section 7.6 no more than once per year.
Section 7.7 Other Rights, etc. (a) The failure of Mortgagee to insist upon strict performance of any term hereof shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any term of this Mortgage. Mortgagor shall not be relieved of Mortgagor’s obligations hereunder by reason of (i) the failure of Mortgagee to comply with any request of Mortgagor or any guarantor or indemnitor with respect to the Loan to take any action to foreclose this Mortgage or otherwise enforce any of the provisions hereof or of the Note or the other Loan Documents, (ii) the release, regardless of consideration, of the whole or any part of the Property, or of any Person liable for the Obligations or any portion thereof or (iii) any agreement or stipulation by Mortgagee extending the time of payment or

otherwise modifying or supplementing the terms of the Note, this Mortgage or the other Loan Documents.
(b) It is agreed that the risk of loss or damage to the Property is on Mortgagor, and Mortgagee shall have no liability whatsoever for decline in value of the Property, for failure to maintain the insurance policies, or for failure to determine whether insurance in force is adequate as to the amount of risks insured. Possession by Mortgagee shall not be deemed an election of judicial relief, if any such possession is requested or obtained, with respect to any portion of the Property or collateral not in Mortgagee’s possession.
(c) Mortgagee may resort for the payment of the Indebtedness to any other security held by Mortgagee in such order and manner as Mortgagee, in its discretion, may elect. Mortgagee may take action to recover the Indebtedness, or any portion thereof, or to enforce the Other Obligations or any covenant hereof without prejudice to the right of Mortgagee thereafter to foreclose this Mortgage. The rights of Mortgagee under this Mortgage shall be separate, distinct and cumulative and none shall be given effect to the exclusion of the others. No act of Mortgagee shall be construed as an election to proceed under any one provision herein to the exclusion of any other provision. Mortgagee shall not be limited exclusively to the rights and remedies herein stated but shall be entitled to every right and remedy now or hereafter afforded at law or in equity.
Section 7.8 Right to Release Any Portion of the Property. Mortgagee may release any portion of the Property for such consideration as Mortgagee may require without, as to the remainder of the Property, in any way impairing or affecting the lien or priority of this Mortgage, or improving the position of any subordinate lienholder with respect thereto, except to the extent that the Indebtedness shall have been reduced by the actual monetary consideration, if any, received by Mortgagee for such release, and may accept by assignment, pledge or otherwise any other property in place thereof as Mortgagee may require without being accountable for so doing to any other lienholder. This Mortgage shall continue as a lien and security interest in the remaining portion of the Property.
Section 7.9 Intentionally Omitted.

In case any action, suit or proceeding is brought against the Indemnified Parties by reason of any occurrence in respect of which Indemnified Parties are entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Mortgage, Mortgagor shall at Mortgagor’s expense resist and defend such action, suit or proceeding or will cause the same to be resisted and defended by counsel at Mortgagor’s reasonable expense for the insurer of the liability or by counsel designated by Mortgagor (unless reasonably disapproved by Mortgagee promptly after Mortgagee has been notified of such counsel, in which case Mortgagor may designate alternative counsel reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee); provided, however, that nothing herein shall compromise the right of Mortgagee (or any Indemnified Party) to appoint its own counsel at Mortgagor’s expense for its defense with respect to any action which in its reasonable opinion presents a conflict or potential conflict between Mortgagee and Mortgagor that would make such separate representation advisable; and, provided, further, that if any Indemnified Party shall have appointed separate counsel pursuant to the foregoing, Mortgagor shall not be responsible for the expense of additional separate counsel of any other Indemnified Party, unless in the reasonable opinion of Mortgagee a conflict or potential conflict exists between such Indemnified Parties. So long as Mortgagor is resisting and defending such action, suit or proceeding as provided above in a prudent and commercially reasonable manner, Mortgagee and the Indemnified Parties shall not be entitled to settle such action, suit or proceeding without Mortgagor’s consent which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and Mortgagee and each Indemnified Party hereby agrees that it will not settle any such action, suit or proceeding without the consent of Mortgagor; provided, however, that if Mortgagor is not diligently defending such action, suit or proceeding in a prudent and commercially reasonable manner as provided above, and Mortgagee has provided Mortgagor with thirty (30) days’ prior written notice, or shorter period if mandated by the requirements of applicable law, and opportunity to correct such determination, Mortgagee may settle such action, suit or proceeding as to the claim against Mortgagee and claim the benefit of this Article 9 with respect to settlement of such action, suit or proceeding. Any Indemnified Party will give Mortgagor prompt notice after such Indemnified Party obtains actual knowledge of any potential claim by such Indemnified Party for indemnification hereunder. The Indemnified Parties shall not settle or compromise any action, proceeding or claim as to which indemnification hereunder applies without prior written notice to Mortgagor. The provisions of this Section 9.4 shall survive any prepayment or payment of the Loan and, except with respect to claims arising from Mortgagee’s ownership and operation of the Property, any foreclosure or satisfaction of this Mortgage.
