(a)           The Mortgagor shall keep or cause to be kept the Mortgaged Property insured against damage by fire and the other hazards covered by an all-risk coverage insurance policy for the full insurable value thereof (which shall mean the full repair and replacement value thereof) without reduction for depreciation or co-insurance and in no event less that $2,500,000, subject to any limitation of applicable law.  The Mortgagor shall also maintain or cause to be maintained public liability insurance with respect to the Mortgaged Property provided for limits of liability in amounts satisfactory to the Mortgagee for both injury to and death of Persons or individuals and for property damage.  The Mortgagee may require the Mortgagor to obtain such other insurance, including business interruption, flood, earthquake, war risk, nuclear explosion, demolition and contingent liability from the operation of “nonconforming” improvements of the Mortgaged Property, all within 10 days after demand by the Mortgagee, and the Mortgagor shall maintain or cause to be maintained such other coverages, in such amounts, as may from time to time be required under the Loan Agreement.  The Mortgagor shall not maintain any separate or additional insurance, unless it is properly endorsed and otherwise reasonably satisfactory to the Mortgagee in all respects.  The proceeds of insurance paid on account of any damage or destruction to the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof shall be paid over to the Mortgagee to be applied as hereinafter provided.
 
(b)           All insurance policies (collectively, the “Insurance Policies”) required pursuant to this Mortgage shall be endorsed to name the Mortgagee as an additional insured and loss payee, as the case may be, thereunder, as its interests may appear, without contribution, under a long-form, non-contributory mortgagee clause, or otherwise endorsed as the Mortgagee may reasonably require.  All such insurance policies and endorsements shall be fully paid for and contain such provisions and expiration dates and be in such form and issued by such insurance companies licensed to do business in the State, with the highest or second highest rating available from A.M. Best Company or an equivalent Person, as shall be approved by the Mortgagee or otherwise comparable to the insurance in place at the time this Mortgage is recorded.  Without limiting the foregoing, each policy shall provide that such policy may not be cancelled or materially changed except upon 30 days prior written notice to the Mortgagee of intention of non-renewal, cancellation or material change, and that no act or thing done by the Mortgagor or the Mortgagee shall invalidate the policy as against the Mortgagee.  The Mortgagor shall deliver or cause to be delivered all original policies, or copies thereof certified by the insurance company or authorized agent as being true copies, to the Mortgagee (together with the endorsements thereto required hereunder) upon request by the Mortgagee.  If the Mortgagor fails to maintain insurance as required by this Mortgage, the Mortgagee may, but shall not be obligated to, maintain such insurance.
 
(c)           In the event of any damage or destruction to the Mortgaged Property, promptly following Mortgagor gaining knowledge of the same the Mortgagor shall give written notice to the Mortgagee.  In case of loss or damage covered by any of the Insurance Policies, the Mortgagee (or, after entry of decree of foreclosure, the purchaser at the foreclosure sale or decree creditor, as the case may be) is hereby authorized at its option either (i) to settle and adjust any claim under such Insurance Policies without the consent of the Mortgagor, or (ii) to allow the Mortgagor to settle and adjust such claim; provided that in either case the Mortgagee shall, and is hereby authorized to, collect and receipt for any such insurance proceeds; and the expenses incurred by the Mortgagee in the adjustment and collection of insurance proceeds shall be deemed Secured Obligations, and shall be reimbursed to the Mortgagee upon demand or may be deducted by the Mortgagee from said insurance proceeds prior to any other application thereof.  Each insurance company which has issued an Insurance Policy is hereby authorized and directed to make payment for all losses covered by an Insurance Policy to the Mortgagee alone, and not to the Mortgagee and the Mortgagor jointly.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing the Mortgagor may adjust and settle any claim under such Insurance Policies without the consent of the Mortgagee so long as the cost of Restoration with respect to such claims does not exceed Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000).
 
9

 
(d)           In the event of foreclosure of this Mortgage or other transfer of title to or assignment of the Mortgaged Property toward extinguishment, in whole or in part, of the Secured Obligations, all right, title and interest of the Mortgagor in and to all policies of insurance required by this Mortgage and any proceeds thereof shall inure to the benefit of and pass to the Mortgagee or any purchaser or transferee of the Mortgaged Property, as the case may be.
 
(e)           The Mortgagor hereby irrevocably appoints the Mortgagee as the Mortgagor’s attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest, to be used during the continuance of an Event of Default to endorse any checks, drafts or other instruments representing any insurance proceeds, whether payable by reason of loss thereunder or otherwise.
 
2.5.          Condemnation.  The Mortgagor, immediately upon obtaining knowledge of the institution of any proceedings for the condemnation, taking or purchase in lieu thereof, of the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof (each, a "Taking"), shall notify the Mortgagee of the pendency of such proceedings.  The Mortgagee may participate in such proceedings, and the Mortgagor from time to time shall deliver to the Mortgagee all instruments requested by it to permit such participation.  The Mortgagee is hereby irrevocably appointed as the Mortgagor's attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest, with power to collect and receive, the proceeds of any Taking, and, to make any compromise or settlement in connection with such proceedings.  In any event, the Mortgagor shall not adjust, compromise or settle such proceedings and shall not enter into any agreement with respect to such matters without the prior written consent of the Mortgagee (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned).  The Mortgagor, upon written request by the Mortgagee, shall execute and deliver any and all instruments from time to time reasonably requested for the purposes of confirming the foregoing assignment to the Mortgagee.  The proceeds of any Taking shall be applied to or toward the Secured Obligations.
 
2.6.          Application of Proceeds of Casualty.
 
(a)           The Mortgagee shall permit the application of the proceeds of Insurance Policies consequent upon any casualty to the cost of restoring, repairing, replacing or rebuilding the loss or damage caused by such casualty (collectively “Restoration”) if and so long as the following conditions are met:
 
(i)            the Restoration is accomplished in accordance with the terms of Section 2.6(c) provided that if the cost of the Restoration does not exceed Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000) then the proceeds shall be paid directly to the Mortgagor who will promptly and in a good and workmanlike manner complete the Restoration;
 
10

 
(ii)           the cost of the Restoration (as estimated by the Mortgagee) does not exceed more than fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding aggregate principal balance of the Secured Obligations at the time of the casualty;
 
(iii)          there is no Default or event which, with the giving of notice or passage of time, or both, would constitute a Default; and
 
(iv)          the Restoration can be completed within one year after the casualty and at least six (6) months prior to maturity of the Note.  If the conditions set forth in clauses (1) through (4) of this section 2.6(a) are not satisfied, the Mortgagee may, in its sole discretion, elect to apply all or any part of the proceeds of Insurance Policies consequent upon such casualty to or toward the Secured Obligations.
 
(b)          Whether or not insurance proceeds are made available to the Mortgagor, the Mortgagor hereby covenants to complete the Restoration of the Improvements, to be of at least equal value, and of substantially the same character as immediately prior to such loss or damage, all to be effected in accordance with plans, specifications and procedures which shall have been first submitted to and approved in writing by the Mortgagee which approval shall not be unreasonably delayed, withheld or conditioned, and the Mortgagor shall pay all costs of the Restoration.  In the event and to the extent that the Mortgagee elects to apply the proceeds of casualty insurance to reduce the Secured Obligations.
 
(c)           Insurance proceeds held by the Mortgagee for Restoration of the Mortgaged Property shall be disbursed from time to time at such times as the Mortgagee deems appropriate as progress payments during completion of the Restoration and, in any event, only upon the Mortgagee being furnished with (i) evidence satisfactory to it of the estimated cost of the Restoration, (ii) funds (or assurances satisfactory to the Mortgagee that such funds are available) which shall be sufficient when added to the proceeds of insurance held by the Mortgagee, to complete and fully pay for the Restoration, and (iii) such architect’s certificates, waivers of Lien, contractor’s sworn statements, title insurance endorsements, plats of survey and such other evidences of cost, payment and performance as the Mortgagee may require and approve; and the Mortgagee, in any event, may require that all plans and specifications for such Restoration, be submitted to and approved by the Mortgagee prior to commencement of work thereon.  No payment made prior to the final completion of the Restoration shall exceed ninety  percent (90%) of the value of the work performed from time to time, as such value shall be determined by the Mortgagee in its sole and exclusive judgment.  Funds other than proceeds of insurance shall be disbursed prior to disbursement of insurance proceeds.  At all times the undisbursed balance of insurance proceeds remaining in the hands of the Mortgagee, together with funds deposited or irrevocably committed to the satisfaction of the Mortgagee by or on behalf of the Mortgagor to pay the cost of such Restoration, shall be at least sufficient in the sole and exclusive judgment of the Mortgagee to pay the entire unpaid cost of the Restoration, free and clear of all Liens or claims for Lien.  Any surplus which may remain out of insurance proceeds held by the Mortgagee after payment of such costs of Restoration, shall be applied to the Secured Obligations.  No interest shall be allowed to the Mortgagor on account of any proceeds of insurance or other funds held by the Mortgagee.

19

 
(b)          At any sale of the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof pursuant to the provisions of this Mortgage, the Mortgagee, and each Lender, shall have the right to purchase the Mortgaged Property (or any part thereof) being sold, and in such case shall have the right to credit against the amount of the bid made therefor (as opposed to paying in immediately available funds) all or any of the judgment then due and owing to the said bidder.
 
(c)           At any time before conclusion of any proceeding or other action brought by the Mortgagee in connection with its exercise of the remedies provided in section 4.2, the Mortgagee may partially or completely terminate, abandon, adjourn, postpone, reschedule and resume such proceeding or action, all without prejudice of any kind.
 
(d)           The Mortgagee may resort to any remedies given by the Loan Documents or applicable law, or any collateral thereunder in such portions and in such order as the Mortgagee shall determine, and any such action shall not in any way be considered as a waiver of any of the rights, benefits or remedies evidenced or provided by, or referred to in, the Loan Documents or applicable law.  The failure of the Mortgagee to exercise any right, remedy or option evidenced or provided by, or referred to in, the Loan Documents shall not be deemed to be a waiver thereof.  No acceptance by the Mortgagee of any payment after the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default and no payment by the Mortgagee of any amount, insurance or other cost for which the Mortgagor is obligated hereunder, shall be deemed to waive or cure such Default or Event of Default or the Mortgagor's obligation to pay or reimburse Mortgagee for the same.  No sale of all or any part of the Mortgaged Property, no forbearance on the part of the Mortgagee and no extension of the time for the payment of the whole or any part of the Secured Obligations or any other indulgence given by the Mortgagee to the Mortgagor or any other Person shall operate to release or in any manner affect the interest of the Mortgagee in the Mortgaged Property or the liability of the Mortgagor to pay the Secured Obligations, except to the extent that such liability is reduced by proceeds of the sale of all or any of the Mortgaged Property actually received in cash by the Mortgagee.
 
(e)           The Mortgagor hereby consents to and waives notice of the granting of renewals, extensions of time for payment or other indulgences to the Mortgagor or any other Person, or substitution, release or surrender of any of the Mortgaged Property, the addition or release of Persons primarily or secondarily liable on any Secured Obligation, the acceptance of partial payments on any Secured Obligations and/or the settlement or compromise thereof.  No course of dealing between the Mortgagor or any Affiliate of the Mortgagor or the Mortgagee and no delay in exercising any rights hereunder shall operate as a waiver of any right of the Mortgagee.  No waiver by the Mortgagee of any default shall be effective unless made in writing and otherwise in accordance with the terms of section 6.1 and no such waiver shall extend to or affect any obligation not expressly waived or impair any right consequent thereon.
 
20

 
(f)           To the fullest extent the Mortgagor may legally do so, the Mortgagor irrevocably:
 
(i)            waives presentment, demand, notice (except as explicitly required by this Mortgage), protest, and except as is otherwise explicitly provided herein, all other demands and notices in connection with this Mortgage or the enforcement of any of the rights and remedies of the Mortgagee hereunder or in connection with the Secured Obligations or the Mortgaged Property;
 
(ii)           waives all rights to a marshalling of the assets of the Mortgagor, the Mortgagor's partners, if any, and others with interests in the Mortgagor, including the Mortgaged Property, or to a sale in inverse order of alienation in the event of foreclosure of the interests hereby created, and agrees not to assert any right under any laws pertaining to the marshalling of assets, the sale in inverse order of alienation, the homestead exemption, the administration of estates of decedents, or any other matters whatsoever to defeat, reduce or affect the right of the Mortgagee under the Loan Documents to a sale of the Mortgaged Property for the collection of the Secured Obligations without any prior or different resort for collection, or the right of the Mortgagee to the payment of the Secured Obligations out of the proceeds of sale of the Mortgaged Property in preference to every other claimant whatsoever;
 
(iii)          waives all rights of redemption and notice of election to accelerate or declare due the whole of the Secured Obligations and all rights to bring or utilize any defense, counterclaim or setoff which denies the existence or sufficiency of the facts upon which the foreclosure action is grounded or which is based on the wrongful actions of the Mortgagee.  If any defense, counterclaim or setoff is timely raised in such foreclosure action, such defense, counterclaim or setoff shall be dismissed.  If such defense, counterclaim or setoff is based on a claim which could be tried in an action for money damages, the foregoing waiver shall not bar a separate action for such damages (unless such claim is required by laws or applicable rules of procedure to be pleaded in or consolidated with the action initiated by the Mortgagee), but such separate action shall not thereafter be consolidated with any foreclosure action of the Mortgagee.  The bringing of such separate action for money damages shall not be deemed to afford any grounds for staying any such foreclosure action;
 
(iv)         waives the defense of laches; and
 
(v)          waives all rights to a trial by jury in any suit, action or other proceeding instituted by or against it in respect of its obligations hereunder and under any of the other Loan Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents, such waiver being made by the Mortgagor after consultation with the Mortgagor's counsel.
 
21

 
(g)          In the event of a sale or other disposition of the Mortgaged Property pursuant to section 4.2 and the execution of a deed or other conveyance pursuant thereto, the recitals therein of facts (such as default, the giving of notice of default and notice of sale, demand that such sale should be made, postponement of sale, terms of sale, purchase, payment of purchase money and other facts affecting the regularity or validity of such sale or disposition) shall be conclusive proof of the truth of such facts.  Any such deed or conveyance shall be conclusive against all Persons as to such facts recited therein.
 
(h)          Any right or remedy of the Mortgagee relating to the Mortgaged Property or which arises under or is referred to in this Mortgage or arises in equity or under applicable law may be exercised by the Mortgagee, either personally or by its agents, nominees or attorneys, including by a receiver, trustee, liquidator or other similar official or any other authorized representative or representatives of the Mortgagee, and reasonable compensation for the services of such Persons shall be deemed an Expense.
 
(i)           Any and all proceeds received by the Mortgagee in respect of the Mortgaged Property after the occurrence of an Event of Default but prior to the maturity or acceleration of the Notes, shall be applied to the prepayment of the Secured Obligations, after payment of all Expenses, Indemnified Costs and all other costs incurred by the Mortgagee in connection with this Mortgage or the Mortgaged Property, in such order of priority as the Mortgagee shall determine.  Any and all proceeds received by the Mortgagee after the maturity or acceleration of the Notes, shall be applied to the payment of the Secured Obligations, with the applicable premium, if any, after payment of all Expenses, Indemnified Costs and all other costs incurred by the Mortgagee in connection with this Mortgage or the Mortgaged Property, in such order of priority as the Mortgagee shall determine.
 
5.            No Usury.  The Secured Obligations, this Mortgage, and the other Loan Documents, are subject to the express condition that at no time shall the Mortgagor (or any other Person primarily or secondarily liable for any of the Secured Obligations) be obligated or required to pay interest on principal at a rate which could subject the Mortgagee to either civil or criminal liability as a result of such interest being in excess of the maximum interest rate which the Mortgagor (or any other such Person) is permitted by applicable law to contract to pay or which the Mortgagee is permitted by applicable law to receive.  If by the terms of the Secured Obligations, this Mortgage or any other Loan Document the Mortgagor (or any other such Person) is at any time required or obligated to pay interest on principal at a rate in excess of such maximum rate, the rate of interest shall be deemed to be immediately reduced to such maximum rate and the interest payable shall be computed at such maximum rate and all prior interest payments in excess of such maximum rate shall be applied and shall be deemed to have been payments in reduction of principal.
